Chapter 147 147. Death!
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Yan's attack came straight towards Xu Zhi's face. Contrary to her usual behavior, Xu Zhi did not dodge or block with her knife. She just slightly turned sideways to avoid the fatal position and let the attack fall on her left shoulder. Instead, she took a step forward and walked straight in front of Ye Yan.
When the distance between the two was less than one meter, Xu Zhi's left shoulder was suddenly hit by an invisible blade, and blood splattered from the wound. Ye Yan did not hold back and almost cut Xu Zhi's shoulder in half. Although she suffered such a serious injury, she did not hesitate at all, and moved forward a little, then raised her right hand and pressed it on Ye Yan's head.
Ye Yan was young, and coupled with his previous developmental problems, he was a head shorter than Xu Zhi. Therefore, Xu Zhi only needed to find the right moment to put his hand on his head, which was not difficult.
What's difficult is what comes next.
Xu Zhi's five fingers tightly pinched Ye Yan's head. Thanks to Ye Yan's ability and his companions who weakened her, otherwise with her full strength, Ye Yan's head would have been crushed directly. Now she couldn't do it so directly, but it still caused Ye Yan's head to be slightly deformed.
The pain was self-evident. Ye Yan immediately wanted to cut off Xu Zhi's hand and get away, but before he could raise his hand, Xu Zhi pinched his head hard and made him look up and look into his eyes.
So at that moment, Ye Yan saw a pair of gray eyes, and a gray moth flying out from the depths of the gray eyes.
Ye Yan's struggle stopped instantly, but it was not because he didn't want to struggle anymore, but that his struggle changed from physical to mental.
Xu Zhi always remembered very clearly that the function of [Moth] was not only mental control, but also attribute conflict.
So she had never used the moth's ability too much on the extraordinary people in the residential area before.
It's just that after the upgrade, [Moth] can be controlled by her to determine whether it causes attribute conflicts, not that it will never cause conflicts again.
Now is the time to use this feature.
She might not be able to defeat the three archbishops in a physical damage competition, but she would definitely win in a 1v1 battle of mental strength.
Xu Zhi output a large amount of [Moth] attribute extraordinary energy at one time, condensed into a moth and planted it into Ye Yan's body. It combined with some moths that had been dormant in Ye Yan's body, and then guided by Xu Zhi, it directly rushed towards the [Cup] attribute extraordinary ability that was constantly flowing in Ye Yan's body.
The outbreak of attribute conflict happens in an instant. At the archbishop level, the excess energy in the body is so huge that it is not easy to cause attribute conflict in their bodies. Xu Zhi's move can be said to be cutting off the source of the fire, and he himself has paid a considerable price.
What made her even more confident of success was that she had some understanding of the [Cup] attribute and could even see the route of energy flow, so she could accurately guide the attribute conflict.
This was a killer move she came up with on the spur of the moment during the battle.
After all, before the actual battle, she had no idea what abilities the archbishops had, so she had to act on the spot.
And the moment Ye Yan's body movements froze, Xu Zhi knew that he had succeeded.
Even though her physical body cannot defeat 3 at 1, she is invincible in a 1v1 mental battle!
Moreover, when attribute conflicts break out, the extraordinary abilities of others will only intensify the conflict. If you can't handle it, then you're really doomed.
And Xu Zhi was right in front of Ye Yan, how could he possibly resist?
The gray moth continuously stirred up waves of attribute storms in Ye Yan's body. Ye Yan's eyes had lost their luster at some point, and he didn't even notice that Xu Zhi had let go of his hand.
Through the [Prying Eyes], Xu Zhi could clearly see the irreversible damage caused to Ye Yan's body and mind when the [Cup] attribute collided with the [Moth] attribute. This inevitably reminded Xu Zhi of the feeling he had when he first came out of midnight.
Even she couldn't bear it, so Ye Yan probably wasn't much better.
It was just as Xu Zhi thought. At this moment, Ye Yan had lost the ability to think. Under Xu Zhi's intentional control, the attribute conflict in his body broke out at a faster speed than that of ordinary people. The sudden outbreak of severe pain in his body mixed with the mental shock brought about by the loss of control of his extraordinary abilities had caused Ye Yan to lose consciousness in that instant.
After Ye Yan lost consciousness, the formation that had been maintained began to crumble, but it only lasted for two or three seconds before completely dissipating.
When his mind and body were on the verge of collapse due to the conflict of attributes, suddenly, an illusory, miniature blood-red staircase emerged from Ye Yan's mind. His spiritual world, which was on the verge of collapse, slowly stabilized after the staircase appeared.
Xu Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly: "No?"
What are you doing?
It's really becoming more and more like the treatment of the protagonist in a novel!
Xu Zhi's eyes flashed: "Ruin my good thing?"
She casually grabbed a handful of high-level cores with the [Light] attribute from the warehouse, pried open Ye Yan's mouth and stuffed them directly into his mouth.
After thinking about it, she realized that fear was not enough, so she added another [Moth] attribute core.
"I can't eat you to death!"
Then he controlled the moth and flew towards the blood-colored stairs in Ye Yan's mind.
Xu Zhi stuffed a [Lamp] into Ye Yan's mouth purely to cause trouble. After all, it was well known that [Lamp] and [Cup] were mortal enemies, and the function of this [Lamp] attribute core was better than Xu Zhi had imagined.
As soon as the extraordinary energy of [Lamp] entered Ye Yan's body, it rushed towards the blood-colored stairs as if it had smelled something.
Although these [Lamp] attribute energies are like an egg hitting a rock compared to the huge [Cup] attribute energy of the stairs, this is enough. The [Lamp] only needs to pry open a small hole, and the [Moth] will fly in through the crack.
This blood-colored staircase is not a physical entity, but an illusion. To be more precise, it is the [foundation] of Archbishop Ye Yan.
However, Xu Zhi's level is now higher than his. After absorbing the fragment, his foundation is no worse than Ye Yan, who was directly promoted by the [Cup]. When the [Moth] sneaked in through the wound pecked by the [Lamp], the originally blood-colored stairs in Ye Yan's mind gradually turned gray. From bottom to top, the corpses of moths emerged, clinging tightly to the steps and slowly dyeing them completely gray, turning them into pieces of rotten stone.
When the empty stairs turned completely gray, the stairs themselves could no longer withstand the pressure and broke into pieces of rubble, which also meant Ye Yan's complete failure.
This time, it was no longer Xu Zhi who controlled him to kneel down, but he was no longer able to support his body. He completely knelt on the ground and lowered his heavy head, which was constantly churning with moths.
If someone could see through Ye Yan's brain at this moment, they would find that there were no organs in his brain. All that existed were moths filling his entire head.
And when Ye Yan knelt down, countless gray moths flew out of his body which had stopped breathing, emitting a gray glow in the dim environment. This scene actually had a bit of strange beauty.
It was as if countless gray butterflies emerged from their cocoons on Ye Yan's body.
