————The dividing line for eating————
After dinner, we flew north to the Lost Bamboo Forest.
The Lost Bamboo Forest is located in the southeast corner of Gensokyo. It is a very dense bamboo forest, and the Eternal Pavilion where the Moon Princess and the Moon Brain live is located.
The reason why this place is called the Lost Bamboo Forest is that, as the name suggests, most people who come here will get lost in it and find it difficult to find a way out.
In addition to the overly dense bamboo, there are also formations that Bayi Yonglin has added to the forest all year round to prevent outsiders from disturbing it, making the bamboo forest even more like a maze.
Thanks to this, no one would come here to disturb them, because those without a certain level of strength would only get lost if they came in. Only those with certain abilities, or those who have lived here for years, can enter and exit freely.
Xiangbei would not be affected, but the purpose of his visit this time was to find Ai Ge, not Yongyuan Pavilion.
Aika herself lives in Eternal Pavilion. If one wants to accurately grasp Aika's movements, one should wait for Aika outside Eternal Pavilion and then find the right time to appear... It's not impossible, but if one goes there rashly, he will probably be noticed by Yagi Eirin, just like even though he is hundreds of meters away from Reimu, she can still find his location with her super high intuition.
As a bow user, Yagi Eirin's perception ability is naturally not low. Her superb perception ability has been demonstrated many times in the original work, so there may be some risks in doing this.
But if I don't do this, I will need to estimate the time when Ai Ge escaped and search for Ai Ge's trace within the Lost Bamboo Forest... This is also difficult.
But in the end, Xiangbei chose the second option. After dinner, he strolled around Gensokyo for a while before coming to the Lost Bamboo Forest to look for his baby.
In fact, it didn't matter to him which option he chose. After all, with the system functions largely reduced, these tasks, which didn't seem to have much difficulty or rewards, were really not very attractive to Xiangbei.
As long as the mission doesn't fail... It would be a waste of time if I had to sacrifice the Moon Brain or the Demon Princess's ill will for it.
So he wandered around the Lost Bamboo Forest casually, and then ran into the white-haired Penglai man walking towards him.
Vomiting roar.
Xiangbei stopped moving, and the two just stood there facing each other, their eyes colliding and sparks of love flew... ahem.
This scene seems familiar.
There are always a few days every month when my sister gets pregnant.
It was the day when his nemesis, Kaguya of Houraisan, would fight to the death.
Before this day comes, two Penglai people who are not sure whether they are enemies or friends will make an appointment to fight in the bamboo forest and have a heart-to-heart fight.
Originally, this was just Meikou's way of venting her anger and hatred towards Kaguya for thousands of years, but times have changed, and now Meikou no longer has that anger and hatred in her heart, and this monthly fight is like a regular official business.
When they are in a good mood, Meikou and Kaguya will pick up their body parts and cook a pot of offal soup. Sometimes they will stay at the Eternal Pavilion for a night and play a few games with Kaguya... But the ending is usually that Meikou is brutally abused and the two of them fight again.
As for when they are in a bad mood... then they will go back to their own homes and find their own mothers. However, every time the two of them fight, their clothes will be blown into pieces by the aftermath of the battle, so only the winner has the right to take away the pieces of clothes so that he doesn't have to run back naked.
But today, Meihong's mood is not very good.
It wasn't like anything happened, he was just in a bad mood. Then, on the way to the fight location, Xiangbei, who was looking for Loli, was met by Meihong.
As for the relationship between Meihong and Xiangbei... Xiangbei actually likes Meihong very much. After all, she is the first Touhou character he met when he came to Gensokyo. It was also she who took him to see the Scarlet Devil Mansion and the sunflower field. By the way, he completed the first system task and also enjoyed the barrage battle between Reimu and Yuuka.
However, Meihong didn't have a good impression of Xiangbei. First of all, she was in a bad mood that day because she had to deal with the cake theft case. Then, because of the suspicious mission of arresting Xiangbei, she was dragged to the street to die. Later, she could only take him to the Scarlet Devil Mansion and the Sunflower Field. Later, he was backstabbed. And then he disappeared without a trace...
Meihong doesn't have any enemies. Even if she does, they have either been killed by her or cannot be killed.
If one had to create a negative and favorable impression ranking list in her heart, Kaguya would be Schrödinger's number one, and Xiangbei would definitely be ranked second.
Meihong is not a person with a good temper. When she meets people or things she doesn't like, she usually just uses her fists and feet to express her feelings. It was only after being educated by Huiyin in the past few hundred years that she began to restrain herself.
Now that I finally meet this guy again, how can I not fight him?
Kaguya can fight every day, but if you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to find Xiangbei, this guy whose whereabouts are unknown, again.
"Hey, good evening."
Seeing that the person in front of her was still greeting her as if nothing had happened, Meihong put aside the idea of hitting Kaguya, and a hint of heat appeared in her eyes.
"Good evening. What's wrong? Why are you wandering around the bamboo forest instead of staying home to sleep so late at night? Is there something on your mind?"
Ignoring the sarcasm in Meihong's tone, Xiangbei stopped and said with a smile.
"Nothing much, just going out to find a loli. If you're fine, I'll leave first..."
"boom--"
Before Xiangbei could finish his words, he was covered by a giant fireball. The violent explosion destroyed the surrounding bamboo forest, and the blazing phoenix flames even ignited the soil.
Meihong stared at the figure that emerged from the raging fire. When the flames faded, Xiangbei's figure was intact, even the clothes on his body were intact.
"Tsk, I really can't touch you. Your ability is really tricky..."
He waved his hand to clear the flames in front of him, looked at the surrounding area that was affected by the attack, which extended to more than ten meters, and frowned. "Do you really want to kill me? This kind of attack would definitely kill most people."
"You're still an ordinary person?" Meihong sneered. "Even if you can't resist, there's a very good clinic deep in the Lost Bamboo Forest. As long as you're still alive, I can save you... Don't worry, I won't pay for your medical expenses."
"Shouldn't you say 'I'll pay' at a time like this? You beat me up and want me to pay for my own medical expenses?" Xiangbei opened his eyes wide in shock.
Of course I would pay, but I really didn't feel like paying right now. "Do you think I'm a good person? Just give me a beating!"
Xiangbei certainly didn't want to stay any longer. He had important things to do and didn't have the time to fight with Meihong.
"Sorry, I have something else to do and can't accompany you now..."

Volume 1: First Entry into Fantasy: Chapter 16: This is the Real Fighting Technique (Convinced)
"Firebird: Phoenix Wings Soaring!"
Fujiwara no Momoko transformed into a fire phoenix and shuttled through the bamboo forest. As she passed by, the surrounding bamboos caught fire due to the terrifying high temperature before she got close, and soon turned into ashes and became drifting dust and smoke.
"—"
The fire phoenix let out a loud cry, and with endless flames, it swooped down in front of Xiangbei at an astonishing speed. Fujiwara no Momoko inside the fire phoenix gathered her strength and rushed towards Xiangbei at an even faster speed.
"Ice Condensation Spell: Frostbane."
White icy air blew out from Xiangbei's hand and floated towards the attacking phoenix. The next moment, a large area of ice froze the entire area within a hundred meters around the phoenix. A small iceberg emitting bursts of cold air appeared in the lost bamboo forest.
With the buffs of six eyes, the largest cursed energy reserves and the highest cursed energy output, Xiangbei can use almost all techniques better than the original character and unleash even more powerful power.
but……
Xiangbei frowned, stomped his right leg on the ground, and retreated more than a hundred meters away. The next moment, a fire phoenix with blazing flames penetrated directly from the iceberg and caused a violent explosion on the ground where Xiangbei had just been.
"boom--"
A huge pillar of fire rose from the ground and bloomed in the night sky, accompanied by a deafening explosion. A powerful shock wave swept over, throwing everything around into chaos, and throwing the surrounding bamboo and the remains of the iceberg into the distance. The entire lost bamboo forest was like a small earthquake, and the shaking ground made it impossible to stand steadily.
A bottomless pit appeared where people were originally standing to the north. Magma was surging in the pit, and even the rocks were melted.
The ice spell released at full power was much stronger than Mei's in the original novel, but it still couldn't hold the opponent for even half a second.
The two had already fought several rounds here before. Apart from this place, the roads that had been burned to ashes on the way here, and the bumpy ground caused by the battle, all showed the fierceness of the battle between the two.
However, in these few rounds of battle, Xiangbei was only engaged in passive defense and dodging. The lightning attacks, fire attacks, water attacks, or ice attacks he released from time to time, none of them could have the slightest effect on Meihong. They failed to touch her body and were burned into nothingness by the ferocious phoenix flame before they could touch her body.
It was as if a flame version of no bottom line was imposed on her. Not only did these flames not harm Meihong herself, they also blocked all incoming attacks. At the same time, they themselves were the most violent killing move, forcing Xiangbei to keep dealing with the opponent in the bamboo forest.
"What's wrong? Are you just going to run away like a rat? Are you still a man?!"
Meihong, who was chasing him from behind, laughed out loud with delight, and the resentment she had felt over the past few days also dissipated a little after this series of chases.
For some reason, the opponent's "ability to make him untouchable" suddenly stopped working. Instead, a Dharma wheel appeared above his head, as well as various different types of attacks, but these were not a problem.
She also took the opportunity to punch the bastard in the stomach, but unexpectedly, the guy's body was tougher than she had imagined, and he used an unprecedented strength as a defense. Apart from burning the clothes on his upper body, she didn't cause much damage.
"Clang—"
The Falun above his head was spinning again. Xiangbei was standing on a bamboo, holding the bamboo with one hand and resting his other two feet on the bamboo to maintain his figure. The bamboo was tough enough. Even in this state, it still stood upright tenaciously without bending or breaking.
"I admit that you are superior in terms of the performance of the technique."
The ice-freezing spell, Tagore's technique for controlling water, Hanami's technique for controlling trees, and the technique for releasing flaming magma from the clepsydra—these techniques were all inferior to Fujiwara no Mokou's Phoenix Flame in performance.
Just like other spells versus spells without lower limits, or to put it another way, ordinary flames versus strange fires, there is a huge difference in performance between the two.
However, the Phoenix Flame is not like Hakurei's power, which can be adapted and broken. In the previous battle, Xiangbei was intentionally or unintentionally suffering from the attack of the Phoenix Flame.
Now the Phoenix Flame has been adapted to and cracked almost completely, and it is estimated that it will be fully adapted in one or two rounds.
However, Xiangbei did not want to use Moxu Luo to deal with Meihong. Now he has almost adapted to the cracking. Even if he gets into trouble, there is a backup to cover him... It's time to test the new ability.
"However, in terms of the diversity and strength of my abilities, I am superior!"
"Shameless talk!"
Another fireball was launched, and the bamboo where Xiangbei was standing was directly blown into ashes, but Xiangbei jumped down before the fireball and landed on the ground.
This was exactly what Meihong had expected. The flames of the phoenix appeared on her body again, and she turned into a human-shaped fireball, rushing towards Xiangbei who had landed on the ground like a red lightning.
However, Meihong saw Xiangbei in front of her take out a peculiarly shaped weapon from somewhere. It looked like a single-edged dagger with X-shaped decorations on the end and the hilt.
With a simple wave to the north, the powerful curse power in the divine weapon turned into thunder, crossing the sky and falling directly onto Meihong who was rushing towards him.
In the original novel, even Lu Yun Ziyi, who had activated the mythical beast Amber, would be delayed by this attack. Even if your sister Hong is from Penglai, it does not mean that you have the so-called resistance to lightning attacks.
Sure enough, this bolt of lightning successfully stopped Meihong, who was engulfed in flames, and even the flames on her body were weakened a little.
"asshole……!"
Lightning pierced through the flames and struck Meihong's body. The intense numbness made it difficult for her to move. At this moment, Xiangbei's figure moved in front of Meihong like a ghost, and a fist pierced through the flames, hitting her heart heavily. A black flash burst out from the collision.
Black flash!
Just like being hit head-on by a fighter jet flying at full speed, Meihong was blasted hundreds of meters away, smashing countless bamboos, and finally fell into a huge rock. Her whole body was embedded in it in the shape of a "big" character, which looked a bit funny.
"Cough...cough cough!"
After vomiting out bloody internal organ fragments, Meihong's injuries recovered at an astonishing speed.
As a Penglai person, she is an immortal being. Even if she is injured, she will recover at an extremely high speed. If you want to stop her temporarily, perhaps the only way to do it is to smash her brain and grind her entire body into minced meat.
He pulled himself out of the boulder and forcibly reconnected the broken bones, allowing the Penglai people's physique to accelerate the recovery of their injuries. Looking up, he saw Xiangbei had also arrived here.
……wrong.
Who is this guy?
"The powerful body of Tianyu Tyrant."
"Powerful output and control of mana enhances physical strength."
"Four-armed True Body, a means of repairing the body and increasing strength all at once."
"Transformation through inaction, killing everywhere is the spirit body."
"Ritual Release: Mythical Beast Amber."
Xiangbei, who had four arms and two mouths, only one eye between his eyebrows, and his whole body covered with blue lightning energy, appeared in front of Meihong.
"This is the complete beating technique, the complete ACT 1, the complete—me!"
"ACT 1! Fighting technique, start!"
Volume 1: First Entry into Fantasy: Chapter 17: Sister Hongyu ()
The Heaven and the Tyrant, in exchange for losing all their cursed powers, gained an unparalleled body that was stronger than any sorcerer. In the original story, Fushiguro Shinobu, who possessed this physique, defeated Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru during the Huaiyu period alone. Zenin Maki, who also possessed this physique, wiped out the entire Zenin family, one of the three major families, during the period of death and return.
Not to mention, Xiangbei, who was given the power of heaven and tyrant by the system, did not even have to bear the cost of losing his cursed power. While he already had a body as strong as a ghost, he could also use cursed power to continue to strengthen his body.
In addition, Sukuna's four-armed true body transformation can restore his previous physical state and increase physical strength. In the original work, after activating this state, he relied on his physical strength to briefly suppress Shikakumo Ziyi who liberated the mythical beast Amber.
And the phantom beast Amber, which Lu Yunzi can only use once in her life, completely suppresses Ryoumen Sukuna before releasing his four-armed true form with its physical strength.
The last one is the transformation of inaction: all-killing spirit body, which greatly increases the muscle strength and completely ignores Yuji Itadori's ordinary punches. Except for the black flash, no one can break his defense.
In short, he stacked buffs as hard as he could, stacked buffs like crazy. At this moment, Xiangbei's physical strength had reached an incredible level, completely surpassing the power of the beating techniques of all the characters in the original novel.
This is Xiangbei's ACT1 form - Fighting Technique Return, which utilizes the ability of a transformation and a technique to increase physical strength, and superimposes it to unleash a terrifying power!
"What the hell is this, Xiangbei, are you no longer a human being?!"
Meihong's expression was solemn. Even with her thousand-year vision, she had only seen this ability to drastically change the body's state in monsters, and it was impossible for humans to possess this power.
After all, what human being has the ability to grow an exoskeleton, two arms, and a mouth? Even a monster has never seen such a weird thing!
