Even if you're a corrupted magical girl, you still have to try to redeem yourself.

Magic, filth, oneself, Lin Jiezi, and the sound of sacred hymns.

Of the five essential elements, Yuuki Eri has already addressed four of them.

The remaining one is the final key point.

Magic and filth, even the two wands of the three gods and the primordial magic, are like layers of packaging for a liqueur-filled chocolate, while the liqueur filling is the essence of the chocolate.

This essence of the liquor is the soul of Saint Shiyin herself after shedding all these things.

However, the outer candy wrapper is really a headache.

Rather than candy wrappers, they resemble the quills on a porcupine's back. Porcupines use their quills to injure their prey, but hunters can also peel off the quills to obtain the porcupine's meat.

Yuuki Eri's magic can purify filth to some extent, but it cannot handle the surging magic; while Yumehara Sumireko can use that part of the magic, but she cannot stop the erosion of filth. If a person rashly comes into contact with it alone, they will definitely be torn apart by that magic or assimilated by the power of filth.

However, if two people exert force in the same direction, the result will be completely different.

In this way, they will be able to reach the most central location.

Just as Yuuki Yui had predicted, beneath the outer shell that Urobuchi Mashiro had infused into Seishin, there was indeed something different.

However, the things in (+(Mountain_Zero Dream) are different from what Yuuki En guessed.

Because the previous battles were too intense, from the moment Mashiro Urouge placed her wand along with her soul into Seishin's body, Yuuki Yuuki had no time to think about anything else. She was constantly fighting, sorting out the situation, and coming up with a way to break the deadlock.

But now that both Mashiro and Asahimi have encountered trouble, how should they deal with the rampaging Seishin they created? How can they truly eliminate the magical girl's power under these circumstances? And why is Seishin able to withstand so much magic and filth and still move freely?

Yuuki Yui hadn't thought about these questions, nor did she have time to think about them.

Now she doesn't need to guess anymore; the answer is already laid out before her.

There isn't just one soul residing at the very core; there are three.

The pure white is revealed in the light of dawn, and the sound of sacred hymns fills the air.

However, the situation was somewhat unexpected by Yuuki En. Urobuchi Mashiro's soul bubble had already become broken and was quietly floating to the side. The magic power contained within it had been almost completely exhausted. Now, her soul was just an ordinary broken soul bubble that Yuuki En had seen in the dream world.

While Seishion's situation is much better than that of Urouge Mashiro, it is still not optimistic—but the pessimism is in a completely different direction from that of Urouge Mashiro.

Saint Shion's soul is being bound by a shackle. Yuuki Yui can feel the magic power emanating from Saint Shion's soul constantly impacting the shackles binding her, but the shackles are so strong that Saint Shion cannot break them.

This constraint should be a backup plan left behind by Gorgen Mashiro.

Since Saint Shion's soul is firmly bound, it's inevitable that her body would be out of control, right?

Aside from the two of them, the remaining soul is completely free.

Whether this was part of their plan, Yuuki Yukino couldn't say for sure.

But at least Genki Mashiro and Asahi Miyabi haven't reached the point of total defeat.

The best evidence is the free soul of Asahi Mi, who exists here and simultaneously possesses two magic wands.

Single update only!

Chapter 237 Pulling Radishes

Yuuki Yukino's consciousness was trembling in the chaos.

She stared at Asahimi's twisted soul, her blackness greedily licking at the two wands, like parasitic vines drawing nourishment from a tree trunk.

The target she was suppressing was undoubtedly Seishine, while Asahimi was the one who usurped the throne and took over the position.

"Asahiya..."

Yuuki Yukino suddenly realized something.

In the chaos, Asahimi seemed to be raising her eyebrows at Yuuki Eri, but since they were both in the purest state of souls, Yuuki Eri couldn't see what expression Asahimi was making.

But this will not affect their communication, just like the communication between Yuuki Yukino and Yumehara Sumireko before.

"Ah, Yuuki Yukino, welcome." Asahi Mi's voice rang out: "Are you curious about what I'm doing?"

Yuuki Yui remained silent, but her silence revealed her intentions perfectly.

"My body has already endured too much, and it can no longer contain the original power as it used to. So now, the only remaining vessel is Shion," Asahimi explained to Yuuki Yuuki unhurriedly.

Now that they are both in a soul state, she has no worries about what Yuuki Yuki might do to her.

Yuuki Yukino really can't do anything else; besides thinking, there are very few things she can do right now.

But she knew that today's situation was something that Mashiro Urokin had planned a long time ago. Otherwise, Mashiro Urokin wouldn't have needed to imprison Seishin before, and she wouldn't have needed to cooperate with her on Christmas Day to protect Seishin.

"Her body, the vast majority of the city's magic, is enough to corrupt all that magic, to make the things that happened in the past reappear here, the primordial power, the power of the primordial darkness, and all the magical girls, now all the elements have been concentrated here."

Asahi continued speaking, slowly revealing the final part of her plan to Yuuki Eri in front of her.

“If we all disappear together, no one will suffer anymore. I, who was once a vessel with the same origin and a similar soul as Saint Shion, am the final link in this plan.”

Asahimi whispered, her soul penetrating the two wands like ink. Although they were still independent at the moment, the Nyaruko power that attracted Yuuki seemed to be getting stronger, making Yuuki feel as if her consciousness was being torn apart by an invisible hand.

Asahi was accelerating her process, and Wu Zhuode's magic transformed into a howling, pitch-black gale, surging outwards from Saint Shion's body.

Meanwhile, the mist surrounding Sheng Shiyin's body suddenly began to boil.

The battlefield has descended into chaos.

Inuyama Tomoe's matchlock gun suddenly misfired, the all-pervasive black mist blocking the muzzle and preventing her from attacking further; Mizuno Yu's arrows froze in mid-air, as if they had been shot into a lump of gel; Tenrai Helica's lightning ropes were also unable to contain the shapeless black smoke, and she could only watch helplessly as it continued to spread.

"Lin Jiezi! What's going on again!" Tian Lei Helika shouted loudly, calling out Lin Jiezi's name. The rising smoke obscured her vision, making it impossible for her to see the situation around Sheng Shiyin.

Not only Helica the Thunder God, but all the magical girls lost sight of their targets because the obstructive fog obscured their vision. Even though they knew their enemies were among them, they found it difficult to continue.

However, if they don't continue forward, Sheng Shiyin might take advantage of the fog that obscures their vision and slip away, making it impossible for them to find her.

What's worse, everyone else heard Tian Lei Helika's loud shouts, but they didn't hear Lin Jiezi's response at all.

"Don't stop! Clear this damn fog first!"

"First, make sure you have a clear view, so they don't get away."

Mizuno Yu was originally the commander of the magical girls' side, and now that Yuuki Yui was also absent, the person with the most influence among the fallen magical girls was Inuyama Tomoe. Both of them issued orders to their comrades at the same time, but they were saying the same thing.

The two shared the same idea, and the other magical girls naturally had nothing else to say, so they all used their abilities to try to dispel the fog.

Dealing with tangible enemies might be easier for them, but using something that can be seen but not touched as an opponent is quite troublesome.

Moreover, this fog is showing a tendency to expand, and neither storms nor ice rain can reduce it as quickly as it spreads.

Herlica shouted loudly several times in a row, her voice trembling slightly. Even though she was usually carefree, she now knew how serious the situation was and was worried that something might happen to her classmates and the people she cared about most.

"Lin Jiezi! Did you hear me! Lin Jiezi!"

After a few seconds of silence, Lin Jiezi's response came from the thick fog.

"I...I! I heard it, but I don't know what happened! I don't know! Cough...cough cough...it feels so...cough cough cough...choking!"

Lin Jiezi's voice was still trembling, and it could be heard clearly from a distance, though it was interspersed with violent coughing, which was probably why she couldn't respond to Helica immediately.

Can we call this good news for now? At least Sheng Shiyin didn't turn around and run away.

Lin Jiezi's voice rang out again, sounding as if she were gritting her teeth, which made it sound very strange.

"She, she's not right. It seems like she can't control herself, it seems... she's in a lot of pain! Black smoke, a lot, more and more! Cough cough."

Considering that Lin Jiezi has been struggling with something, it's not that strange.

Besides, everyone can understand Lin Jiezi's meaning.

Even Kuroba Kisei understood what this girl, whom he had never met before, was saying.

When Lin Jiezi said that Sheng Shiyin seemed to be in a lot of pain, Hei Yu Laisheng was already getting restless.

"Master! Is Master in danger?! What's wrong with Master?! Master! Answer me quickly! Master!"

As Black Feather Reincarnation shouted loudly, it flapped its wings and charged into the black mist. Its six pairs of black wings flapped violently, creating gusts of strong wind that dispersed the mist in front of it.

But it was all in vain; the girls still couldn't see what was inside, as if Saint Shion herself had turned into a cloud of black smoke.

Lin Jiezi continued her report: "She, she knelt down! Ouch, it hurts..."

Nevertheless, the girls found themselves temporarily at a loss.

……

“That’s right, even you can’t stop me. When the three wands are fully fused, our plan will be a complete success! I, I will temporarily shoulder the power of the Primordial Darkness and bring everything to a close!”

Asahimi's voice grew increasingly fervent; she could already see the ending she and Genken Mashiro had hoped for was just around the corner.

"Ah... Mashiro, I'm about to succeed, can you see it? Can you feel it?"

Under normal circumstances, Yuuki Yukari and the girl with glasses should have been completely powerless to resist. Asahimi didn't know what went wrong, which made them put up unnecessary resistance.

However, the resistance had reached its limit. Asahimi felt that the power within Yuuki Enishi's body was getting closer and closer to him, within reach, and he could touch it as soon as he reached out.

Have you already used up all your strength?

No, that's not right. It was Yuuki Yukino who voluntarily gave up resisting, allowing her consciousness and soul to be pulled toward him.

Suddenly, a completely different power erupted beside Yuuki Yuuki.

Asahi had some impression of this force.

She fought alongside Yuuki Yuuki, and was the master of the Dream Realm.

The owner of that power, Sumireko Yumehara, did something extremely simple—she inserted her own magic power, like a needle, into the merging wand.

By the time Asahimi suddenly realized something was wrong, it was already too late.

She wanted to temporarily halt the fusion between the wands—even though this fusion was the wand's, or rather, the original consciousness of the Primal Darkness, which she could only guide, she now had to stop.

However, Asahimi found that she couldn't stop.

Yuuki Yukino seemed to have caught her own tail, firmly pinning herself to this spot.

Outside, Sheng Shiyin suddenly let out a desperate scream, and the thick black fog surrounding her was blasted to pieces and quickly dissipated into the air.

After letting out a scream, Sheng Shiyin's knees suddenly buckled, and she collapsed to the ground with a thud.

"Right now."

Mizuno Yu whispered a message to her companion beside her, and the arrow between her fingers flew from the bowstring toward Seishin's chest.

Everyone could see that Sheng Shiyin had lost the ability to resist, although it was very likely only temporary.

"Owner!"

Kuroba Laishi shouted, trying to stop the arrow that was aimed at Seishin, but it was too late.
