I'll kill you after I finish this game!

Suddenly, the sound of swords rang out around Vali. Vali's eyes narrowed, and he saw that the golden phantom sword that had stabbed him earlier had formed a circle and surrounded him.

Vali reacted quickly, using a magic bullet to blast away the first phantom sword that lunged at him, but the remaining phantom swords were already poised to strike from all sides.

【Phantom Sword - Pursuit Sword Formation】

"Oh, what a small trick!"

After Vali realized he couldn't escape the sword array that was tightly surrounding him as he flew at high speed, a flash of silver light appeared on his wings.

"Dovode (Eat) --!!"

A steady voice rang out amidst the flickering light, and a strange power enveloped the phantom sword that tightly surrounded Vali.

The next moment, the golden phantom swords surrounding Vali quickly became transparent, and then dissipated due to the reduced energy and inability to gather.

This is the power of the White Dragon Emperor's Wings reduced to half. That reduced power can become sustenance for the user and be used for their own purposes.

But Vali isn't stupid. These phantom swords are full of the power of Rezhe's Holy Light. If he were to use them to empower himself, he would definitely be seriously injured!

These forces expelled excess power through the light wings on both sides, and dense golden light spots were expelled under the blue light wings.

"Oh~ it seems that even if you absorb my power, you can't add it to yourself."

Vali was slightly startled. Reiji used the power of the Trickster to teleport in front of Vali. The Yamato in his hand disappeared, and his hands had switched to the shape of Beowulf's fist and foot weapons. The golden lightning leaping on them was impossible to ignore.

What's going on? Another magical artifact?

First it was the knife that cut through space, and now it's fists and feet. What exactly is the opponent's power?

Could it be similar to the creation of Joan of Arc's holy sword in Heroic Journey?

Rei didn't care what Vali was thinking. He knew the condition for the opponent's light wings to be halved: he had to make contact with the opponent to halve them. Rei had only made contact with the opponent's light wings once, when he cleared the Yama Blade dungeon, so he didn't intend to give the opponent that opportunity.

Reiji is preparing to test new moves and powers on Vali. In The King of Fighters, the Absolute Territory refers to the fact that when the human body endures a certain degree of pain, the brain will secrete an element that enhances the person's strength, allowing them to unleash terrifying power in an instant.

Entering that realm, the ancient martial arts style of Yagami and the power of Iori Yagami are recorded in detail, and he also obtained that mysterious element from Iori Yagami's inheritance.

Under his control, Lei Zhe's mental power actively stimulated his brain. Light danced in his eyes, and a flame burned on his body, with dense arcs of electricity bursting forth.

After all, his martial arts foundation was the Eight Thunder Forbidden Techniques.

【Eight Thunderbolts of Desolation - Swift Thunder Crouching Fangs!】

The materialized golden lightning energy was blasted towards Vali in front of Rei, sharp and unstoppable, like lightning fangs biting towards Vali.

Absolute Territory 5%! Swift Thunder Fang!

The sudden burst of lightning at close range left Vali with only time to raise his arms in a defensive stance.

"Sizzle—!"

The sound of hot oil being poured into a pan to scald meat rang out.

Vali was struck in the arm by the terrifying power that Reiji unleashed in an instant. The lightning seemed to melt his arm, splattering out large amounts of blood and hot smoke from the burning flesh.

"Dovode (Eat) --!!"

The power of the White Dragon Emperor's Wings immediately reduced Vali's burden by half.

"Ugh—!"

The physical damage caused by this level of attack only made Vali let out a low scream before gritting his teeth and stopping.

The lightning attack from Swift Thunder Fang paralyzed Vali's body, and the massive lightning strike slammed him into the ground like a meteorite.

P.S.: I think Vali's Wings are really cool. Reiji: I'll gladly accept them.

Chapter Sixty-Nine: Lei Zhe: Thank you, my buddy, for sending me strength from so far away.

Vali, kneeling in a small crater on the ground, looked down at his bloodied and steaming arm, the flesh eroded to the bone—a burning sensation from the power of Reiji's Holy Light.

If it weren't for the White Dragon Emperor's wings halving his attack power, those two arms would probably have evaporated.

The demon's self-healing ability was completely neutralized; the opponent's divine power was too targeted at the Vali demon's bloodline.

"You can't be that capable of everything, can you? If you keep hiding your true abilities, people will die!"

A cold voice came from ahead, and an even more powerful aura erupted from Lei Zhe, causing dense cracks dozens of meters long to spread across the surrounding ground.

When Vali looked up, he saw Reiji with a cold expression, his hands clasped above his head like claws, and his legs slightly apart. Reiji's posture made Vali's hair stand on end.

[Absolute Territory 30% - Forbidden 1211 Style - Eight Maidens!]

With a ferocious red light in his eyes, Reiji's gaze was extremely cold, and his figure was as blurry as a ghost as he swept towards Vali with immense killing intent.

"Hands off!!"

"【White Dragon Emperor's Armor】(DivingDividingScaleMail)!!!"

With his hair standing on end, Vali no longer held back and directly activated his divine artifact, the White Dragon Emperor's Wings, into forbidden mode.

He thought that Razer was just a human who had only awakened the artifact a few months ago, and that the artifact's divine power was the only thing that restrained him. He thought that Razer might not necessarily lose to Razer in a real fight.

Now that he was fully covered in a cool and magnificent silver armor and had entered the forbidden hand form of the divine artifact, he realized that he had made a huge mistake.

Rezer, carrying immense killing intent, swiftly crashed into Vali, who was covered in silver armor. Raising his claws, imbued with lightning and holy light, he transformed them into a dense barrage of claw shadows, relentlessly slamming into Vali.

Knowing that his opponent was wearing the Forbidden Armor, Reiji, after easily tearing through the opponent's armor defense with the spatial cutting power of the Yama Blade in his first strike, followed by a barrage of claw strikes accompanied by thunder and holy light, easily ripped through Vali's flesh and blood.

Large swathes of flesh and blood splattered to the side, splashing onto Lei Zhe's cold face. As he delivered his final heavy punch, he gripped his opponent's chest tightly with both hands, his ten fingers digging deep into the flesh, and golden lightning erupted from his hands.

"Divide (eating) - Divide (eating) - Divide (eating) - Divide (eating) ————!!"

As Vali endured the attack, the White Dragon Emperor's wings frantically reduced the power descending upon Vali and Reiji's stamina, since the opponent had already made contact with Vali.

A sense of powerlessness descended upon Lei Zhe, but the Eight Maidens Spirit he used became somewhat brutal. Even though the power within his body was being drained and reduced, Lei Zhe stubbornly focused on breaking through the opponent's diminished power!

Absolute territory is 30%!

Forty percent of Absolute Territory!

Absolute territory is fifty percent!

Lei Zhe seemed determined to challenge his opponent. As the opponent weakened, he continued to gather and break through the power of his absolute domain to enhance his attack!

He's like he's unlocked his genetic potential, freeing himself from all his limitations and just wanting to unleash his pent-up emotions.

Golden lightning exploded on the opponent's chest, and Vali was directly blasted away by the explosion. But that wasn't the end of it. Rei caught up with the opponent and unleashed another move, the 36th Form of the Underworld: Jackal Flower.

After tearing through the opponent's armor with its claws, it didn't use fire, but instead unleashed a golden bolt of lightning that shot Vali into the sky.

"Wali!"

Seeing that Wally was being bombarded by such brutal attacks and was finally sent flying into the sky, the Monkey King was extremely anxious and immediately tried to intervene to save Wally.

"Wait!" Arthur reached out to stop the other party, calmly looking at the battlefield and said, "Although the opponent's move was very brutal, Vali, who has entered the Forbidden Hand state, will not be defeated so easily."

Indeed, Vali, who had entered the Forbidden Hand state, was not so easy to die. If it weren't for the White Dragon Emperor's Eight Maidens attack, which had been weakened by his light wings, Vali wouldn't have even been left with a complete corpse.

"Ouch! But it feels so good!! Rai Zhe, we have to retaliate!!"

Vali's silver armor mask was already half shattered, and stimulated by the intense pain, his eyes were now filled with a frenzied fighting spirit. That's how unrestrained the mind of a battle maniac is.

Reiji is a good opponent, but Vali prefers to fight strong opponents!

hum!

A massive surge of magical power flowed out and poured into the silver armor, continuously repairing the damaged parts.

The wings of the White Dragon Emperor on Vali's body emitted a dazzling light, condensing the energy that Rei had reduced onto the blue gem on his armor. The blue gem on his chest emitted a dazzling energy glow!

boom!

A cannon shot rang out, and a beam of light erupted from Vali's chest, crashing into the ground in front of Reiji. Although it did not explode, the ground was melted by the high concentration of magic.

Rezel moved with ghostly steps, a silver beam of light behind him still erupting, tearing through the earth and forests wildly, ravaging the land along Rezel's afterimage.

"How much strength do you have left to run away!?"

Vali let out a somewhat manic laugh, fully entering battle mode. His magic power gathered in his palm as if it were free, and then he swung it fiercely at the ground below.

Each silver-white light bullet possesses the power of a missile, capable of mowing down countless high-level demons like cutting grass.

Vali recklessly squandered the magical energy emanating from the Demon King, solely to fully enjoy the battle before him.

Countless silvery showers of light bombarded the earth, igniting and destroying the forest. Although Reiji was fast and skillfully dodged the attacks, just as Vali had said...

Divide (eating) — Divide (eating) — Divide (eating) — Divide (eating) — ! !

At the same time, an invisible force of reduction descended upon Lei Zhe, locking onto him with pinpoint accuracy, no matter how fast he was, and draining his energy and stamina.

Vali has also learned to be smart and serious. He directly uses the blue gem on the White Dragon Emperor Armor as a cannon to turn the energy he can't add to his body into cannonballs for attack.

If this continues, Lei Zhe will eventually run out of physical strength and energy.

but......

"You think I didn't think of that?!"

Rezhe sneered. He wasn't stupid; he knew that if touching Vali didn't solve the problem in one blow, Vali would have to take his turn.

He knew it, but he still did it anyway. He naturally had his own plans in order to force the other party out of the forbidden state.

boom!

A pale blue flame, emanating a strange and stagnant power, condensed on his palm.

No! It wasn't entirely a pale blue flame.

Because the flame's interior is mercury-silver, and a core in the form of a magatama has condensed at the center of the flame, constantly rotating within it.

Lei Zhe's move was an unimaginable super finishing move.

Mercury Power - Ura Hyakuhachi Style: Eight Wine Cups!

This is one of the divine techniques of the Yagami Kobu-ryu martial arts. If the initial version of the Eight Cups of Wine hits an enemy, that person will have their sense of time stopped, that is, their consciousness will become blank for a certain period of time, thus making the person who is hit feel that time has stopped.

Even if the eight wine glasses in Razer's hand do not hit the enemy, they will completely freeze time in the surrounding area.

tread!

The ground beneath his feet cracked in a circular pattern, and Reiji leaped into the air, shooting straight up at Vali.

Vali sensed Rei's attack and knew that the opponent was extremely skilled in close combat. With a flap of his wings, he vanished in a blur.

Having missed his attack on Vali, Rei spun around, locked onto Vali below, and hurled the eight-cup sake cup in his hand. He then immediately materialized the Yamato sword...
