Upon hearing this, the system sprite blinked its round eyes and curiously approached the water mirror.
It wanted to see what its host was up to.
The next instant, the view in the panoramic map switched again, focusing on the group of demons fleeing for their lives.
Under the clear blue sky, a dazzling sword light flashed by like a startled swan, grazing the tip of the last wolf demon's tail!
"Awoo!"
The wolf demon was so frightened that it scrambled to its feet, its speed suddenly increasing.
The sword light nimbly turned in the air, revealing Wang Wan, who was standing on the flying sword with her clothes fluttering.
Her expression was aloof as she stood atop the jade sword, but her words carried a hint of impatience: "Hurry up! I'm giving you time to run. If I catch you again, it won't be just a matter of catching your tail!"
On the other side, a slightly petite figure rode a uniquely shaped broom, hot on its heels.
She waved a simple wooden staff in her hand, and several mysterious magic circles instantly appeared in the air.
"Wind Binding!"
"The Slow Swamp!"
"No, no, no! It's wind acceleration! Don't miss!"
Xia Yan muttered incantations, but the magic circles did not directly attack.
Instead, they cleverly landed behind the escape routes of the demons, or in places slightly off-target.
"boom!"
A fireball grazed the edge of a bat-winged demon's wing and exploded, the scorching heat causing its wings to curl slightly.
"Chirp!"
The bat-winged demon let out a terrified scream, frantically flapping its wings, wishing it could fly hundreds of miles away immediately.
Wang Wan hovered on her sword, watching Xia Yan's remarkably effective expulsion, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.
"Looks like our job is actually quite interesting."
Xia Yan wiped the sweat from her brow and said excitedly, "Sister Wang, these demons are so easily frightened! I didn't dare use any powerful magic, for fear of being blasted to pieces!"
Wang Wan nodded in agreement: "That's exactly right. We need to make them feel a deadly threat, but we can't actually kill them, and we also need to make them escape at top speed."
She paused, a glint of shrewdness flashing in her beautiful eyes: "How about this, we divide the work. I'll do the chasing during the day when the light is better. At night, the demon's eyesight is better, which will also make it easier for you to cast those magic arrays that require concealment, so how about you do it?"
Xia Yan's eyes lit up: "Great idea! Sister Wang!"
"What if neither of us is available?" Wang Wan asked again.
Xia Yan thought for a moment, then clapped her hands and said, "Then let Sister Liang Shu bring Lady An over! Lady An just standing there, without even lifting a finger, her aura alone will scare these evil spirits so badly they'll run away in terror!"
The two exchanged a smile, thinking the idea was absolutely perfect.
Thus, this extraordinary scene unfolded on the panoramic map.
A group of demons cried out for their parents, squeezing out all their potential as they frantically rushed toward the divine kingdom.
Behind them, sword light sometimes flashed like dragons, cutting through mountains and rocks, terrifying them to the point of utter horror.
At times, magical light shone, and frost and fire alternated.
This keeps them constantly on edge, never daring to slack off in the slightest.
Occasionally, Lady An would even descend from the sky, wielding a giant axe, and her cries of "Where are you going, you demon?" would send shivers down their spines.
The bat demon was now filled with deep regret.
If he had known he would encounter this group of scoundrels, he would never have taken this job!
This isn't escaping for your life; it's practically participating in a never-ending deadly chase!
The system sprite, located in a remote mountain temple, was intently staring at the panoramic map.
Watching the group of demons and monsters, who seemed to have been injected with chicken blood, their speed was more than ten times faster than before, and they disappeared into the end of the mountain forest in the blink of an eye!
The little system couldn't help but gape.
"What's going on? Is this a relay race in the battle against evil spirits?"
It turned its head to look at Yu Luo, only to see its host leisurely sipping tea, as if all of this was within her expectations.
"Host, isn't this method a bit too underhanded?" The system sprite finally managed to utter this sentence after holding it in for a long time.
"However, I must say that those demons have indeed increased their speed a lot; they disappeared in the blink of an eye!"
Yu Luo put down his teacup, a faint smile playing on his lips: "All's fair in war. When dealing with enemies, we naturally have to use some tricks."
The system sprite watched Yu Luo leisurely there, and then thought of those demons and monsters who had been tormented to the point of near death.
It seems that whenever its host smiles, someone is bound to suffer.
And now those evil spirits are in trouble, aren't they?
It shook its little head, shifting its attention from the water mirror to Yu Luo.
On the stone table in front of Yu Luo were some soil, dew, and a few ordinary bird feathers.
"Host, what are you doing?" The system sprite flew over curiously.
“The high temperatures are already beginning to appear, and I plan to try to enlighten the Shang Yang,” Yu Luo explained.
"Shang Yang?" The system sprite tilted its head, clearly unfamiliar with the name.
Yu Luo patiently explained: "Shang Yang is a one-legged divine bird recorded in the 'Confucius Family Sayings'."
"Legend has it that when they dance, heavy rain will fall from the sky. There is an old proverb that describes this bird: 'When heavy rain falls from the sky, the Shang Yang dances.' Now is the time when we need them."
As she spoke, Yu Luosu gently raised her hand, and a soft yet vibrant golden divine light condensed at her fingertips.
The divine light slowly poured into the soil on the stone table, above the bird feathers.
Under the golden light, the ordinary materials underwent a wondrous transformation.
The soil seemed to come alive, spontaneously shaping itself into the prototype of a bird.
The bird feathers shimmered with a faint light, each one blending into the clay sculpture.
Yu Luo's expression was focused, her eyes were clear, and her whole body shone with golden light.
As the golden light grew brighter, the clay bird gradually revealed its blue-green feathers, and a single horn-like feather sprouted from its head.
What's even more peculiar is that only one thick and powerful leg has materialized beneath its body.
"Bah!"
A slightly childish yet somewhat mystical bird call rang out.
The one-legged bird flapped its wings a few times on the stone table, stood up unsteadily, and curiously looked around.
It seemed to understand its mission from birth, and began to try jumping and dancing.
However, after jumping a few times, it seemed to be struggling.
The surrounding water vapor was also quite thin, far from enough to trigger celestial phenomena.
Yu Luo frowned slightly as she examined the barely formed, one-legged little bird in front of her.
"No, it's still too weak," she said softly, a hint of dissatisfaction in her voice.
This meager amount of moisture is hardly enough to alleviate the drought, let alone irrigate even a small patch of land.
Yu Luo looked at the system sprite with a determined gaze: "System, I want to draw the lottery again, and I have to draw a new ability!"
"We must enhance the effect of the enlightenment, or directly obtain the powerful supernatural ability to control water and summon rain!"
Similar abilities had been granted before, but Yu Luo felt that they were insufficient and did not meet her requirements.
