Starting with magical girls, I'll reign supreme for eternity.

Chapter 199 Nascent Soul Formation, Frying Fish, and Leaping Over the Dragon Gate! (5600 words)

After the previous old man left, the prince watched as another old woman entered her private space.

So he rubbed his forehead impatiently and said, "Are all the old things left in your old world? Can't you just die already and let the young people take over?"

"As you know, Your Highness, it's very difficult for young people in the old world to grow up."

The old woman spoke with neither arrogance nor servility, and then sat down beside her.

Then he raised his head.

The venue for the competition is located above.

A being named Magical Girl Ruri is unleashing her seemingly endless magical power!

What is her relationship with Shion?

The prince gazed at the surging magical waves, which were being precisely and delicately controlled, and his expression gradually grew heavy.

He asked casually.

The old woman immediately bowed her head: "Magical Girl Ruri, a new magical girl from the North Sea Disaster Management Bureau..."

"New magical girl?"

The prince countered with a question, "Are you sure?"

"They must be newcomers."

The old woman coughed. "But her teacher is Shion."

The entire mirror space seemed to quiet down.

"That's not surprising, that's not surprising," the prince murmured, glancing at the magical girl Ruri once more.

A student of the magical girl Shion.

The problem is that most magical girls have to learn and comprehend magic on their own.

Magic power needs to be increased through various battles; without battles to strengthen one's personal reality, the increase in magic power will be very slow.

No matter how skilled a teacher is, they can only teach some basics, make some adjustments to magical research, and provide practical training.

The rest depends on the magical girl herself.

And this magical girl Ruri, apart from being a bit bigger, is almost a carbon copy of the magical girl Shion!

One magical girl, Shion, is already terrifying enough.

If we were to say that she could still mass-produce magical girl Shion...

How can we fight then?
Even Alice from the Land of Mirrors, with her mature technology, couldn't produce it as fast!
Before we can even build Alice to counter Magical Girl Shion, the enemy has already built a second Shion...

Can a thousand Alices fight a thousand Shion? We'll see.

Even the prince couldn't help but show a hint of anxiety in his crimson eyes.

Are you afraid of Shion?

Hearing the old woman's nonsense, the prince looked at her coldly, "In the old world, who wasn't afraid?"

Ever since the old world's biggest trump card, Magical Girl Killer, was shattered in front of Shion.

Almost the entire old world came to a standstill.

The only old world that thinks it is very capable and wants to cooperate with Ziyuan of the Qingyun Sect is the Curse Realm.

In just half a day, or perhaps less than half a day, it was completely wiped off the face of the earth.

Only the prince knew the truth.

That was when her Demon Slayer destroyed the Cursed Realm protected by the Qingyun Sect right in front of them.

However, most of the old world was unaware of the reason, and the few who possessed some information dared not utter a sound.

I felt like I was in a dark forest.

They were afraid that revealing their coordinates would attract fire and lead to the Qingyun Sect cracking down on their smuggling.

The sudden disappearance of the Cursed Realm became a tacitly known mystery among everyone.

Since then, no one in the old world has dared to challenge the authority of the Qingyun Sect and Ziyuan.

All our actions were aimed at avoiding Beihai and even East China as much as possible, and we would abandon our plans immediately if there was any risk of exposure.

To say that she was afraid of Shion is somewhat laughable.

Who isn't afraid of natural disasters?
Moreover, it was a natural disaster caused by such wanton actions.

If the purpose of the people of the old world seeking Mankai on this land before was to find a way to save their world, then it wasn't particularly urgent.

But now, all of the old world is desperately searching for a way to fully open up, in order to protect itself.

It is precisely because they want to protect themselves that it is urgent.

Compared to saving the world, the will to survive is always stronger.

"But you are different."

The old woman revealed a sincere expression and knelt down, saying, "You are not only the prince of the Mirror Kingdom, but also the king of the old world. You should not be afraid of Shion; she will eventually be an obstacle in your path."

The prince was naturally aware of this.

Anyone who wants to fully bloom and save their world will inevitably become an enemy of Shion.

This is an irreconcilable contradiction.

Moreover, the capital of the Mirror Kingdom was also completely destroyed by Shion.

The Mirror Kingdom, sealed within the remnants of the mind, is none other than the capital of the Mirror Kingdom.

It contained not only all the data and information, but also her mother, who should never die.

The previous King of Mirrors.

When the mental image was completely destroyed, the prince clearly heard the final authority emanating from the Mirror King.

"Kill Ziyuan first, then you can become king."

After the Mirror Kingdom was unsealed, the prince discovered that almost all of its core systems had been locked by the Mirror King's authority.

For the Mirror Kingdom, Shion is an irreconcilable enemy. For the prince, only by killing Shion can he rightfully break through the shackles of the Mirror Kingdom's system, obtain all the authority of the Mirror Kingdom, and become the new Mirror King.

For the prince, Shion is an enemy he must face, a constant foe, and the final divine punishment he must overcome.

Whether from a public or private perspective, only one of her and Ziyuan can survive in the end.

Of course I'm scared, and I might even feel uneasy.

With such an enemy that must be faced, no one can truly be without fear.

That guy might even surpass the concept of a magical girl.

After all, Magical Girl Killer should have absolute dominance over Magical Girls.

That thing came from the very being who created magical girls.

However, the thought that Si Mo Tu was still by his side made the prince feel a little more at ease.

It wasn't that she thought Si Mo Tu could beat Zi Yuan.

But with Si Mo Tu around, she didn't know why she felt confident and at ease.

It was as if the boy possessed a kind of magic; as long as you were by his side, no problem would arise.

However, ultimately, one cannot rely on Si Mo Tu.

Once Simoto obtains the Miracle Seed of the Iris, he will defeat Shion himself!
Confront your own fears and personally settle the score between the Mirror Kingdom and the Azure Cloud Sect.

"I will handle Ziyuan myself; you don't need to worry about it."

The prince withdrew his gaze from the mirror and casually tossed the miracle seed in his hand to the old woman. "That's enough. If we continue, the Dream Essence will be taken by this magical girl, Ruri. Jade Fox, go and carry out your plan."

The old woman's face stiffened. "I don't know what you're talking about?"

“You always think you can fool me, but it doesn’t matter, I forgive your foolishness.” The prince stepped on the face of the kneeling old woman, his black leather boots almost distorting her old face. “I invited people from the Holy Temple, hoping to lend you a hand, but it seems I can’t count on them.”

"Sanctuary!"

The old woman's pupils contracted.

Even today, many people still don't understand what kind of organization the Church is.

They are incredibly mysterious. It is said that their first appearance caused the Witches' Guild to suffer a great loss, and they have always been involved in major events since then.

Especially considering the manifestation of the mental image remnants, they also stole many treasures from the Mirror Kingdom from the three major organizations: the Qingyun Sect Disaster Strategy Bureau, the Witch Society, and others.

This has caused many people to be wary.

I never expected the prince to be so crazy, actually inviting the people of the Holy Temple to cooperate!
"Didn't you say you were going to hunt them down?"

"If we can cooperate, why must we be enemies? Even if there are grudges, the more allies the better." The prince smiled slightly, looking at the old woman with the jade fox. "Don't you think so? Besides, the Holy Temple is paid to do things, so they might be much more reliable than you."

The old woman dared not speak.

"Don't mind, I'm also very interested in your full bloom plan. Let me see just how far you can go with the [Dream Essence] you're pursuing." The prince propped his head up with one hand, his white hair cascading down his hand like a waterfall. "After all, there's an uncountable amount of [Dream Essence] in South China."

"If we succeed, our Black Mountain Realm will definitely give priority to providing this full-blown technology to the Mirror Kingdom. Please rest assured, Your Highness."

The prince merely scoffed at the Jade Fox's promise, offering no response.

Just as Jade Fox was about to leave, the entire mirror space suddenly trembled.

She stopped and looked up immediately, only to see the area flattened by flames.

There was even a magical girl with her eyes closed, standing there, unmoved in the flames, without even removing her magical armor!

Just by standing there in an ordinary manner, she made it clear to everyone how terrifyingly strong she was!
Even the prince was drawn to it.

The old woman was somewhat surprised.

"bud?"

The prince scoffed.

"Yes, it's sprouting."

……

"bud?"

From the audience seats all the way to Coco, everyone was somewhat shocked as they gazed at the unmoving magical girl.

Although the ranking of magical girls has only recently become more detailed, the previous classifications were quite vague.

But the difference between budding and full bloom is so great that it doesn't need much detail; everyone knows how big the gap is.

A budding sprout facing a fully blooming flower is no different from an unarmed ordinary person facing a magical girl.

But now, with all the blooming magical girls lying down, only this budding one is still standing...

"Did you hold back?"

"Or was it due to negligence in magic control that this budding talent was let go?"

"I love Xiao Liuli so much."

"Something's not right with this sprouting. I can feel it." "You're not a magical girl, what can you possibly feel? Even if something's wrong, how wrong could it be? You're not suggesting that a sprout can beat a bloom, are you?"

"What do you know? I'm a Demon King level cultivator in the 'Magic Arts' realm. I can tell at a glance that she's not human..."

An Shiyu listened to the whispers around her and glanced at Jiang Si again.

Jiang Si, who had been smiling, became expressionless the moment she saw Miss Bai Mei.

Only she and Jiang Si knew just how outrageous this budding magical girl was...

"She...she probably wouldn't be serious about our sister, would she?"

Mu Jin asked with some concern.

Jiang Si snorted coldly and remained silent.

To be honest, he wasn't very familiar with his eldest disciple, and of course, he didn't know what Bai Mei was thinking.

The fried fish got fried and landed on Coco's head.

Instead of playing in the peak competition, Shangxiu is here having fun with Xiaxiu.

I will definitely teach him a lesson in the future.

Coco, of course, didn't recognize this older sister. Her eyes were closed, and she was barely breathing.

If it were before, Coco would have carelessly assumed that the other party was just an ordinary bud.

But Coco is no longer the naive girl she once was.

Even a budding seed should not be underestimated.

She glanced again at the two unconscious magical girls beside the budding magical girl.

When Coco unleashed her magic, she clearly sensed that she had not actually defeated the two magical girls in full bloom.

These two magical girls are different from other magical girls; one is very powerful, and the other has a special type of magic.

It's not easy to handle on your own.

However, both of them deactivated their transformations and fainted.

Coco took a deep breath and looked seriously at the white magical girl.

If I'm not mistaken, it was this budding magical girl who defeated the two blooming magical girls while she was busy eliminating all the other magical girls around her...

Just as Coco was about to say something, the white-clad magical girl simply put her finger to her lips and gently shushed her.

Then he tilted his head back, as if he was preparing something.

After a long while, he nodded slightly, his simple magical attire fluttering without wind, and slowly took a step forward.

The entire audience held their breath.

An Shiyu noticed that even Jiang Si clenched her fists suddenly.

So he reached out and took Jiang Si's hand, wiping his sweat with his own palm.

"Bai Mei has a sword."

On the giant screen, the frail, white-clad magical girl with her eyes closed softly said, "Ke Kaitian, please take a look, Miss Liuli."

"The Great Wilderness Prisoner's Finger!"

Coco isn't that stupid!
As Teacher Ziyuan said, let's strike first!
However, after entering South China, the once-successful Great Wilderness Imprisoning Heaven Finger suffered its first Waterloo.

The white-clad magical girl floated up lightly, drifting like a dandelion seed above the Great Wilderness Imprisoning Heaven Finger.

He even stood at the same height as Coco, stepping on the crimson clouds of the Great Wilderness Imprisoning Heaven Finger.

Sprouts cannot fly. Although there are exceptions, such as An Shiyu, the sprout in front of us is clearly not an exception; she really cannot fly.

But what's the difference between that movement and flying?
"Excuse me."

As soon as she finished speaking, Coco saw Bai Mei open one eye.

Those were truly magnificent pupils, like a vast starry sky, with countless starlight scattering within them.

Then, gripping his cane in his right hand, his sharp edge was revealed in that instant!
The Great Wilderness Imprisoning Heaven Finger beneath her feet shattered instantly amidst the sharp sword energy, yet the budding white rose remained suspended in the air without falling.

A dazzling white light suddenly burst forth from her hand!

Elegant and proud!

Just like Bai Mei's figure!

Coco felt suffocated for a moment as she faced the sword energy.

The world seemed incredibly small because of this sword strike.

She felt trapped in a small box, instead of standing in the vast sky, with nowhere to hide or escape, only able to stand at a distance and wait for the sword's edge to strike!

Although the audience couldn't see anything, the magical girls protecting the stands were all amazed.

The power of this sword strike was so terrifying that any magical girl could see just how terrifying it was.

Just feeling the emanating magic from the sidelines is terrifying, let alone the magical girl Ruri facing the sword light directly in it!
Before she could chant, shields resembling flower petals began to unfold in front of Coco.

However, under the sword's edge, those magical shields were as fragile as glass, only slightly slowing down the speed of the sword's edge.

Coco held back, instantly fusing and condensing all her filthy magic, her own magic, and the magic she borrowed from Yiyi!

Bai Mei was slightly taken aback as she gazed at the magnificent fire lotus blooming from Coco's hand.

She pursed her lips.

It's better than Ruoyun.

However, it was of no use.

The Fire Lotus is not a defensive spell, but an offensive one, and its destructive power is undeniable.

Also because of its terrifying destructive power, using the Fire Lotus at this time is completely meaningless.

The sword beam was already very close; the moment Coco unleashed the Fire Lotus, the sword beam would cause the Fire Lotus to explode.

The explosion at extremely close range will only harm Coco; she won't be able to defeat Bai Mei, as Bai Mei will eliminate her first.

One sword, and he was dead.

Shaking her head, Bai Mei's open pupils revealed a hint of disappointment.

However, the next second, the fire lotus containing terrifying power suddenly began to deform.

The entire fire lotus unfolds its petals one by one, and then recombines.

In just one breath, it transformed into the exact same petal shield that Coco had first opened!
However, this time the fire lotus contained even greater power, and a violent explosion occurred the moment the sword light struck!
The three layers of petals shattered instantly amidst the sword's light!

However, the terrifying explosion forcefully destroyed the unstoppable sword light. The petals of the fourth layer merely spun slightly before the sword light, already at its last gasp, vanished instantly...

Bai Mei stared blankly at Coco, who had transformed an offensive spell into a defensive one by altering the Buddha's Fury Lotus, and who had even blocked almost 60% of her sword's power.

Most importantly, the three layers of petals exploded, but this did not cause a chain reaction of explosions in the remaining petals.

The biggest problem with the Fire Lotus is its instability; once a violent explosion occurs, all of them will explode uncontrollably.

However, Coco successfully stabilized the subsequent petals, preventing a chain reaction of explosions, and then used the power of the Buddha's Wrath Lotus itself to shatter the sword's edge...

Bai Mei glanced at her master on the stage.

Then he remembered something, covered his mouth with his hand, and began to cough violently.

Coco was actually terrified and broke out in a cold sweat.

That sword strike was truly terrifying; the moment they made contact, she knew that none of her defenses could withstand it.

But she absolutely cannot lose when she's showing off her magical girl powers in front of her older brother for the first time!

Coco wants to make her older brother proud!
So I took a gamble and used the Buddha's Wrath Lotus as a chrysanthemum shield.

The Buddha's Wrath Lotus is also a flower! Naturally, it can be used as a chrysanthemum shield!

As it turned out, she was right.

However, if there is the slightest mistake, the terrifying power within the fire lotus will engulf her, forcing her out of her transformed state and causing her to lose the match.

After successfully defending against that sword beam, Coco felt a chill run down her spine.

Even with the Buddha's Wrath Lotus, it was already so difficult to defend against; if a few more came, I don't know if I could even survive.

It seems the Buddha's wrathful lotus is about to explode out of control.

We're going to lose...

She bit her lip, her heart filled with resentment and frustration.

If I could be stronger, if I could work harder, I wouldn't have embarrassed myself in front of my brother...

It reminded her of the embarrassment of asking her parents to come to the sports meet when she was a child, only to find that she came in second to last.

The one who came in last place skipped the whole process and walked.

Coco, you're so useless. You can't do anything right. You always fail and only disappoint people before blaming others...

Just as he was inwardly cursing himself, the magical girl opposite him suddenly started coughing violently.

Then he spat out a mouthful of blood, which startled Coco, and the Buddha's Wrath Lotus in his hand disappeared instantly.

But why does her blood smell sweet?

"I lost."

The magical girl named Bai Mei smiled calmly, her body covered in blood. Then, her magical armor dissipated, and she collapsed to the ground, unconscious.

The entire venue fell into a deathly silence.

Coco stumbled as she descended from the sky, then took in her surroundings.

There are no magical girls left standing.

All the magical girls in the venue have deactivated their transformations.

She carefully scanned it two or three more times to confirm it before muttering something incredulously.

"I...I won?"

Then a silly grin appeared on his somewhat dirty face, "I won, I won!"

Then she immediately took flight, and the big screen was filled with her pretty little face grinning foolishly.

The magical girl immediately waved her hand, waving vigorously towards Jiang Si.

Only then did Jiang Si release her grip and wipe the sweat from her palms on An Shiyu's sleeve.

"Bro, I won! Bro, did you see that? I'm the champion! Bro, bro!"

The audience's attention shifted from the screen to the boy who had been laughing maniacally earlier.

Jiang Si remained expressionless, simply looking up at her younger sister who was gazing at her from the other side.

"Hmph, getting all cocky after winning a small competition."

An Shiyu couldn't help but chuckle as she watched Jiang Si raise her eyebrows and finally let go of her hand.
