At the same time, his voice rang out again, "Do not take this lightly, the matter is far from over. Four Directions Huixue... no... she is now a vengeful spirit. She has not yet been purged."

As he spoke, Beichuan Si turned his head to look at Four Directions Huixue, his tone full of matter-of-factness, "As a mere tool... the current Moon Witch of the Four Directions Family, you also have the responsibility to resolve this adversary here."

The Moon Witch of the Four Directions Family...?

To be honest, Four Directions Huixue really did not care anymore.

Whatever would ultimately happen to the Four Directions Family no longer concerned her.

Just as she had said before, she was merely like a mayfly... a thoughtless mayfly.

But—

She took the round mirror formed from the combination of the Moon Obscuring Mirror and the Moon Gazing Mirror, bowing her head.

After a while, her voice could be heard,

"...Is this what Beichuan Master wishes me to do?"

Four Directions Huixue held the round mirror, lifting her head.

Her face was full of seriousness, causing Beichuan Si to raise his eyebrow, and he pondered for a moment before calmly responding, "If that's how you want to understand it, there's no problem."

"...Is that so..."

I see...

Four Directions Huixue took a deep breath, her lowered cheeks flushing slightly.

If a person as insignificant as a mayfly could have a stance... then the person in front of her was perhaps the only one who could make choices on her behalf?

"If Beichuan Master wants me to do this, then I will do it."

She nodded vigorously.

Beichuan Si did not pay attention to Four Directions Huixue's expression. Upon receiving her answer, he merely trembled his palm slightly, and Jian Ding slid into his hand.

The surface of the black mass of malice still squirmed, as if something was about to emerge from within any moment.

The Shinra Bell trembled slightly, and Magong Yongshi, Shenzhu Shihui drifted out.

Magong Yongshi looked at the floating mass of malice, his expression also rather solemn, "I can feel that the malice in front of us... possesses the same nature as the 'Calamity Spirit' in Shenzhu Village. If we let what's inside come out... it will surely be a horrifying 'Calamity Spirit' similar to the Concubine in Shenzhu Village."

On the other side, the usually nonchalant Shenzhu Shihui also gathered her expression, her voice heavy as she asked,

"What should we do next, Beichuan? I suggest we temporarily retreat, as we still don't fully understand the opponent's situation. It's better to play it long, verify their strength completely, then make a plan."

Hearing Shenzhu Shihui also make a serious analysis, Beichuan Si gave her an extra look, nodding in acknowledgment,

"You are right."

Beichuan Si calmly continued the analysis, "Just as you said, this vengeful spirit is powerful, we indeed should play it long to find an appropriate opportunity to resolve it. I also very much agree with your view."

He nodded his head in agreement.

But—

"But why have you started holding the Death Aura Hammer then, Beichuan?! Didn't you agree with my point?!" Shenzhu Shihui's mouth twitched as she stared in bafflement at the Death Aura Hammer in Beichuan Si's hand which was already forming, shouting incredulously.

Didn't you agree with my point? Shouldn't we be escaping now? Why have you taken out both the hammer and Jian Ding?!

Upon hearing Shenzhu Shihui's question, Beichuan Si instead looked at her askance, "I do agree with your point, but I never said I would implement the idea."

"..." Shenzhu Shihui.

Beichuan Si's righteously indignant retort left her unable to speak for a long while.

"In fact, what you mentioned is just one method." Beichuan Si moved his foot, quickly heading towards the mass of malice at the shrine apex.

As Shenzhu Shihui had said.

In front of them was a terrifying Calamity Spirit that gathered the malice from the elixir of immortality for hundreds of years, but it was also at its weakest before completely materializing.

Why wait for the opponent to fully transform before taking action?

Why would Beichuan Si let go of an opportunity to strike the vengeful spirit while it was down?

He fearlessly charged toward the mass of malice.

Bracing his stance.

Inhale.

Good thoughts, death aura, fixed fire as well as the unique moon glow of the Four Directions Family.

All four types of powers capable of damaging the Spiritual Body were now adhering to Jian Ding's surface.

Boom!!!

Beichuan Si stomped down, his strength transferring from his waist into his arms, his center of gravity shifting forward in an instant!

The Jian Ding in his hand plummeted with an unstoppable force!

The entire blade fell like a bright white streak.

Black liquid splashed everywhere!

The surface of the Calamity Spirit was forcefully split open, leaving a half-meter-long mark on it.

Not only Shenzhu Shihui was stunned by this, but even the Calamity Spirit, which had been stably residing within the spirit group and waiting for its body to fully form, was taken aback.

It stared dumbfounded at the 'human' who had unhesitatingly reached into the spirit group, and then—

A scream erupted!

Under the gaze of Shenzhu Shihui, Four Directions Huixue, and Nishijou Kurenai, Beichuan Si brutally yanked the other from the spirit group!

The black stenchy liquid dripped down tick by tick, and the full appearance of the Calamity Spirit was revealed to everyone.

It was overall pale blue in complexion and appeared humanoid. However, on its back, countless thick and deformed arms entangled together, looking much like a Moon Palace Penglai Tree with twisted fingers as branches and arms as trunk—they swayed slightly, seeming as if one could hear the countless cries of the Four-direction Clan.

The waters of Moon Nether Lake not only contained the grievances of Yellow Springs but also hid the grievances of the Four-direction Clan members.

The tree of arms symbolized Four Directions Huixue's obsession with immortality and also the grievances of the entire Four Directions Clan.

Witches, priests, and even ordinary clan members who died in the Four Directions Family during Waning Moon Time... parasitic upon another spirit of Four Directions Huixue, forming this figure.

The face of the Calamity Spirit was on its chest, exactly the resentful face of another Four Directions Huixue.

At that moment, when it saw its foe Beichuan Si, its entire face twisted and deformed.

Behind it, the eerie and strange 'Penglai Tree' shook, and from its mouth came sounds of resentfulness.

Those were meaningless roars, similar to 'Beichuan,' yet blurry and broken syllables that couldn't form coherent sentences.

But even so, Beichuan Si could still feel the ingrained hatred from the other.

Endless grievances surrounded its body, visible even to the naked eye.

Crack!!!

Under Beichuan Si's watch, its elongated and twisted arms swiftly stabbed out from its back, taking less than a second to reach his face.

So fast.

Beichuan Si frowned, and the Death Aura Hammer in his hand heavily smashed onto the surface of the first arm.

The solid touch felt as though the hammer had completely struck a hard diamond.

However, with such a powerful and heavy strike from Beichuan Si, the arm's direction was slightly shifted, directly smashing the stone podium holding the undying elixir into pieces.

Such power...

Beichuan Si sidestepped, calmly avoiding the second arm that smashed toward his head, then dipped his body to dodge the third arm that flew swiftly by, crouching down after the movement, and with a stomp, he charged toward the Calamity Spirit.

The Jian Ding in his hand gathered up the death aura again and was then thrown by Beichuan Si towards the Calamity Spirit's head.

Ping!!!

Jian Ding flew backwards.

Facing the Calamity Spirit whose body was enhanced by the calamity, even the Jian Ding could not completely penetrate it.

But—

Beichuan Si's eyes flashed, his forward momentum unchanged, he reached out one hand to catch the Jian Ding flying back while his other hand conjured the fearsome Death Aura Hammer.

Then he swung his arm downwards, the hammer directly veering the rapidly stabbing arm slightly off course, and the Jian Ding in his other hand did not hesitate to smash down towards the opponent's head!

Bang!!!

Dust rose everywhere!
