The leader of the men in black stretched out his bloodied arm towards Xie Zhou, and his eyes looked at her with a listless expression, somewhat different from before. Xie Zhou was puzzled by this.
However, she didn't pay much attention to it anymore. Fighting him was a bit difficult, after all, in terms of physical strength, she, a woman, was ultimately no match for him.
Their mental strength was roughly the same, so this time it was entirely thanks to Xie Zhou's agile movements and quick footwork that he managed to dodge several of his attacks.
Those attacks, imbued with a fierce aura, were practically fatal. If it weren't for Xie Zhou's strength, he would have become one of his victims.
Xie Zhou was facing a rather troublesome opponent at this time. The leader of the men in black was similar to the mysterious person she had encountered before, also a powerful being. However, this time was different; his mental strength was not lower than hers, but rather about the same.
Xie Zhou had to find a solution quickly, otherwise her body wouldn't be able to take it if she continued to fight this leader of the men in black. She had taken over the fight with many other people before.
She had no physical injuries, but her mental energy would eventually tire. Once she lost control, she would truly become his prey. Just thinking about how this disgusting monster would use its sharp nails to carve wounds into her, and how its blood would flow and soak the spirit tree beside her, filled her with immense resentment.
This time, we absolutely cannot fall into this person's hands again. The fight with that mysterious man before was rather embarrassing, and although we barely managed to defeat him, we absolutely cannot suffer another defeat this time.
The leader of the men in black had unfocused and lifeless pupils, so whenever Xie Zhou looked at this enemy, she always felt like she was no longer fighting a living person, but rather like she was fighting the five monsters from before.
He showed no emotion whatsoever, only muttering "kill, kill, kill."
His seemingly listless and lifeless pupils only aroused more panic, so whenever the leader of the men in black was about to touch his arm with his blood-stained fingers, Xie Zhou would reflexively flee.
She didn't want to get tainted by this stuff, so she quickly drew her spirit sword, using one hand to fight the black man's hand while simultaneously forming hand seals and unleashing magical attacks with her other hand.
Fireballs and water balls kept raining down on the leader of the men in black, but he seemed oblivious. With a flick of his sleeve and a wave of his large hand, they vanished around him without causing him any harm.
This is Xie Zhou's dilemma; she quickly realized that she would likely suffer some injuries in this battle.
Sure enough, as soon as this thought crossed his mind, the leader of the men in black didn't hold back.
She moved swiftly to Xie Zhou's side with the speed of teleportation, and with a palm strike, she gritted her teeth in pain, quickly retracting her arm. After adjusting her condition, she threw the last remaining spell-breaking spell at the leader of the men in black, taking advantage of this opening to destroy the summoning array he had set up.
After several rounds of fighting, Xie Zhou's doubts grew stronger. Was she fighting a living person, or just an avatar of the mysterious person like before?
They sensed that something was wrong with the leader of the men in black.
At this moment, the system prompted: "That's right, this is just an avatar. Moreover, I also detected the aura of the black crystal core you once obtained within the leader of the men in black!"
This result was completely unexpected for her. For an avatar to be so powerful, how did it perceive her? It was easy to imagine how formidable the original was, standing at the very top of the hierarchy.
After checking his injuries and giving them a quick bandage, the leader of the men in black caught up with him.
Just as she was fighting the leader of the men in black.
Xie Zhou raised his sword, gripping the hilt and blade to block the outstretched hands. His hands were already embedded in the blade, cutting a gash, but this was not the time for pain. The leader of the men in black was closing in step by step.
Her hand sank deeper and deeper into the hole. Xie Zhou glared fiercely at the clone in front of him, gritting his teeth, determined to fight this person to the death.
She then used her mental power to interfere, but the mental power of this clone was not to be underestimated. Just then, thinking that her mental power was superior and could temporarily stop him from pressuring her, an accident occurred, and she wanted to seek help from the system.
"Ouch! That hurts!"
"System, system..."
The voice transmitted from the system, however, was, "I... ahh... ya..."
I heard a malfunctioning sound, and initially felt some chaos in my consciousness. My head was filled with strange fragments, my consciousness was somewhat confused, and my head was dizzy.
The system suddenly malfunctioned, causing a violent fluctuation in her mental energy.
Unable to contend with the black-clad leader's mental power any longer, the black leader seized the opportunity to attack Xie Zhou.
The leader of the men in black was about to strike her abdomen when Xie Zhou gritted her teeth and endured the pain, silently reciting incantations and commanding the sword formation. Countless transformed swords appeared behind the leader of the men in black, and with her command, they appeared.
"Enter!"
They were all pierced into his body.
"Hmm..."
The leader of the men in black paused his hand slightly, leaning forward. Each time a sword pierced his body, his face remained expressionless. He turned around, scattering the other sword flowers, and forced the swords out of his body one by one. So what if they were transformed swords?
With a single manipulation, he forced the swords out of his body, and they quickly dissipated.
However, at least Xie Zhou had distracted him. Taking advantage of this time, she quickly sheathed the sword in her hand and dodged the attack in time.
She regained consciousness and wanted to ask where the system was and what had caused the confusion earlier.
Anxious, he kept calling out, "System...System..."
However, the system did not respond at all.
There was nothing he could do; the leader of the men in black came over again, and Xie Zhou continued to fight him.
Both sides were injured. Xie Zhou quickly wrapped the wound on his hand with the strips of cloth he had torn off, in case he was injured again, it would probably leave a scar.
In the ensuing battle, Xie Zhou was clearly being forced to dodge by the leader of the men in black. She gradually realized that the leader of the men in black was intentionally stalling for time, because each time she dodged to only a few places, which were the locations of the incomplete formations.
Meanwhile, the leader of the men in black took the opportunity during the fight to smear the blood from his hands on the ground, as the formation he had set up was about to be completed.
