The longhorned dragon was a pillar of fire from afar, but the Great Tengu easily dodged it. With a wave of his fan, he created a whirlwind that caused the longhorned dragon to stagger.

It's not that the longhorn's wings aren't strong enough; it's just that even dragons rely on updrafts and the reaction force from flapping their wings to stay airborne. If the Great Tengu's wind magic disrupts the air pressure below and above the longhorn's wings, it will naturally affect the longhorn's flight.

However, dragons are, after all, the kings of the skies in this world. They are quite different from ordinary birds. Birds have evolved hollow skeletons to reduce their weight in order to fly, using huge keel protrusions to support the muscles in their wings. Dragons, on the other hand, have extremely strong wing muscles, more than ten times the strength of birds of similar size. When they flap their wings, they can generate wind with the power of wind magic.

Longhorn quickly adapted to flying in the Great Tengu's whirlwind and gradually approached the Great Tengu. The Great Tengu, who had been keeping an eye on Bai Lin, was caught off guard by Longhorn and was less than 30 meters away from the start, within Longhorn's attack range. While releasing whirlwind spells, it also dodged Longhorn's fire breath, and could only retreat step by step.

With a few flaps, the Longhorn Dragon chased the Great Tengu away from above the airship, and they gradually disappeared into the distance. This was also Bai Lin's idea. Compared to the destructive power of the Longhorn Dragon, and the Great Tengu's potential powerful attack, both would be catastrophic for the airship. The right way was to lure them to a distance and settle the score there.

Bai Lin's figure flickered and disappeared into the air. When he reappeared, he was already standing behind Fujiwara Ichiura. Without saying a word, he drew his longsword and slashed at the kagune root on Fujiwara Ichiura's back. His movements were as fast as lightning.

Fujiwara Ichiura was still busy dealing with the Execution Department mages who surrounded him, and did not notice that Bai Lin suddenly teleported directly behind him. However, when Bai Lin's sword was about to strike, it was blocked by two crossed kagune.

It was only then that Bai Lin noticed that Fujiwara Ichiura had several strange black tumors growing on his kagune, like glasses growing on his back. They were incredibly bizarre, reminding Bai Lin of another Japanese manga, Parasyte.

Bai Lin's sword flashed like lightning, employing an aggressive tactic, each strike aimed at the root of Fujiwara Ichiura's kagune. Fujiwara Ichiura didn't even turn around; his four kagune, like parasites in a manga, possessed their own consciousness. In just four or five seconds, he used the steel-hard tips of his kagune to strike Yu Binglong more than ten times, yet he remained almost unharmed.

Four kagune blocked Bai Lin's attack, freeing up two more to stab at Bai Lin's vitals from the left and right, their speed matching that of Bai Lin's sword.

Although Bai Lin's sneak attack failed, the ice element he had gathered in his left hand had reached its peak. While retreating rapidly, he met the incoming Kagune with an ice ray. A blue-white beam of light shot out from Bai Lin's palm. No matter how fast the Kagune moved, it was still rooted in Fujiwara Ichiura's back and could only withstand the ice ray hitting it squarely.

The other kagune, however, resembled a flying guillotine from a martial arts film, its tip transforming into a thin, curved blade aimed directly at Bai Lin's neck. This strike would undoubtedly cleave Bai Lin in two, even if he were wearing top-tier equipment.

However, Bai Lin's dynamic vision was inexplicably greatly enhanced in the shadow dream during the battle with the Church of Hastur. The flying kagune did not escape Bai Lin's eyes. A huge arm stretched out from Bai Lin's shoulder in time, just like when it grabbed the tentacle of the preacher Lebahar, and grabbed the base of the scimitar on the kagune.

Bai Lin's jade-handled dragon slammed heavily against the ice element that had already been hit by the frost rays. The surface temperature had dropped to minus seventy or eighty degrees Celsius, enough to turn an African elephant into an ice sculpture. This ice element had completely rendered the kagune inactive, freezing it completely at the cellular level. With this blow, the entire kagune shattered like an irregularly shaped glass pillar under the impact of the jade-handled dragon.

Bai Lin's movements didn't stop. He quickly pulled out a fire bolt and hugged it tightly. Meanwhile, Aug's giant hand was still tightly gripping a kagune. Thus, a somewhat comical scene unfolded on the chaotic battlefield. Fujiwara Ichiura, who had just been arrogant and thought he was the king of the world, was directly pulled into the air by Bai Lin. He never expected Bai Lin to do such a thing and was caught off guard. By the time he reacted, the fire bolt had already pulled him out of the airship's range and rushed towards the vast sea.

Bai Lin certainly didn't intend to simply defeat the Neon Demon King. Lulu had already sent a message from the Diana that they were approaching. To prevent Fujiwara Ichiura from unleashing another large-scale curse and wiping out the Eastern mages on the airship, they had to keep Fujiwara Ichiura away from the crowd. And the safest battlefield was, of course, the vast sea.

Fujiwara Ichiura in the air had never been so pathetic. His face was contorted with rage, and he roared "Baka!"—or perhaps he was cursing the incompetent and troublesome Kagami.

However, the next scene left Bai Lin dumbfounded. Fujiwara Ichiura shouted and his right hand suddenly turned black, stabbing his own chest with a claw. Bai Lin felt pain just watching that scene.

However, when Fujiwara Ichiura pulled out his black hand, he was holding a long katana, with an ancient design and gorgeous decorations, but it looked indescribably alluring and dangerous.

With a swift swing of his greatsword, Fujiwara Ichiura actually severed the kagune that was being held by the Hand of Aug, instantly gaining his freedom.

The immense force missed its mark, and Bai Lin nearly tumbled in mid-air. He directly stored the severed and rapidly drying kagune into his system space. He couldn't just throw it away carelessly; perhaps giving it to Old Addison would allow him to melt it down and upload the Tree of Life array diagram.

Bai Lin looked back and saw that Fujiwara Ichiura was already floating in the air with a long sword in his hand, facing him from a distance. However, it was clear that Fujiwara Ichiura was very angry, as if Bai Lin had forced him to use his most secret weapon.

Seeing the long sword in his hand, Bai Lin's system promptly sent a message:

Shikigami Detected: Yoto Hime Tenkoku Mo, LV9, Dangerous. A yokai sword forged by the sword-making master "Tenkoku" during the Heian period of Japan. Having tasted human blood, it transformed into a yokai and named itself Tenkoku Mo. This time, not only was there a danger warning, but a short explanation was also provided, showing the system's high regard for this shikigami and indirectly indicating its power.

I am no stranger to the Demon Blade Princess Bai Lin. I saw her before in the battle at the cemetery on the shore of Yunhu Lake. However, she was only level 7 back then and was controlled by Zhuo Bi's spatial magic, so she did not cause much harm. But now she has been raised to level 9 by Fujiwara Ichiura. She is no longer the same as before, and her demon power has increased by nearly ten times.

Without Bai Lin needing to guess, Fujiwara Ichiura had already rushed over like lightning, casually slashing with his sword, a blade aura no less powerful than the Divine Sharpness Without Shadow, directly slashing at Bai Lin who was riding on the fire crossbow bolt.
