“Why should I answer your questions? Just fall down already.”
With no intention of answering Marca’s question, Yan Qi, gripping her giant black scythe, launched another attack against him.
Having witnessed Yan Qi’s supernatural power, Marca naturally didn’t dare underestimate her like before and immediately tried to evade her assault.
Although he was also a Two-Star Supernatural, wielding two different types of supernatural abilities, his power was simply insufficient against Yan Qi, whose strength far surpassed his and who commanded multiple supernatural powers.
“Not so fast!”
Noticing Marca’s attempt to dodge, Yan Qi wasn’t about to let him get away.
In the next instant, Yan Qi activated the supportive spell, Lightbody Technique, reducing her body weight by a quarter and pushing her speed to the limit. In the blink of an eye, she was right in front of Marca.
She swung the giant black scythe in her hands, bringing it down hard towards Marca.
Seeing this, Marca, who hadn’t managed to evade in time, was visibly shocked.
But, being a supernatural with considerable combat experience, Marca quickly reacted.
He simultaneously used his supernatural power to conjure a new protective shield around his body to guard against Yan Qi’s attack, while also manipulating the iron-containing substances in the vicinity, sending them flying directly at Yan Qi to disrupt her movements.
Noticing the iron-based objects flying towards her, Yan Qi, who had already observed Marca using three completely different types of supernatural powers since their fight began, couldn’t help but show a hint of confusion on her face.
She halted her steps, swung her giant black scythe to knock away the incoming objects, and then asked Marca, who had now put a safe distance between them:
“Strange, you don’t seem like a Three-Star Supernatural to me. How can you possess three different supernatural abilities?”
Having barely dodged Yan Qi’s attack, and having also witnessed her use a third supernatural power, Marca gasped for breath and looked at her, saying:
“That’s none of your business. Take this!”
After speaking, Marca once again released the black specter from his shadow, controlling it to launch an assault on Yan Qi.
“Hah!”
Seeing Marca’s move, Yan Qi’s eyebrow twitched slightly, puzzled why he would still choose to confront her head-on.
Setting aside her doubts, Yan Qi said nothing. Brandishing her giant black scythe, she engaged in a fierce battle with the black specter controlled by Marca.
Watching Yan Qi tangled up with his black specter, Marca knew his specter wouldn’t last more than a few rounds.
After merging another black specter into his body, he activated a new supernatural power, slipped into his own shadow, and moved towards Yan Qi’s position.
Although busy fighting the black specter, Yan Qi, who had been keeping an eye on Marca’s movements all along, saw him suddenly vanish without a trace. Her pupils involuntarily contracted.
This guy, he can actually use yet another supernatural power? Is he some kind of skill master?
Thinking this to herself, Yan Qi swung her giant black scythe at the already heavily damaged black specter.
She split the specter vertically in two. Confirming it was utterly destroyed, Yan Qi quickly turned around, trying to locate Marca’s figure.
“Darn it, did he run away?”
Not seeing any sign of Marca, nor sensing his presence, Yan Qi thought he must have escaped in the chaos.
But just then, Yan Qi suddenly felt her body stiffen, and for some reason, she sensed something foreign trying to intrude into her mind.
“Darn it, someone’s trying to invade my mind!”
Realizing the abnormality in her body, Yan Qi quickly understood that someone was attempting to invade and control her.
But how was this being done?
“Wait… could it be the shadow?!”
Pondering this, she suddenly recalled what her father had told her about his experience at Fangfeng City’s train station over half a month ago.
Yan Qi immediately realized something and looked down at her own shadow, which was occasionally twisting unnaturally at her feet.
“Trying to invade my mind and control me through my shadow? How naive.”
After saying this, Yan Qi didn’t hesitate to use the supportive spell she had recently cultivated: Illumination Art.
The next moment, accompanied by a dazzling light shining from Yan Qi’s hand, her previously clear and visible shadow under the sunlight instantly vanished without a trace.
And at that very moment, having lost the shelter of Yan Qi’s shadow, Marca could no longer continue his attempt to control her as before.
Forced to, he put distance between himself and Yan Qi, rematerializing his own figure on a rooftop nearly a hundred meters away.
“Darn it! How did you know my power loses its effect without the cover of a shadow?”
Hearing Marca’s question, her body now returned to normal and feeling nothing foreign in her mind, Yan Qi turned her head and replied to Marca in the distance:
“Because not long ago, I heard someone describe this fourth supernatural power you possess.”
“You heard about it? No wonder you found a countermeasure so quickly.”
Hearing Yan Qi’s reply, Marca finally understood why she had identified the weakness in his ability so fast, and he muttered the words under his breath.
“Alright, enough talk. It’s time to end this battle.”
Not paying attention to Marca’s muttering, and feeling she had already wasted too much time, Yan Qi made this statement.
Wanting to crush the enemy’s will as quickly as possible, she unleashed the aura of a Peak Three-Star Supernatural without restraint.
Feeling the aura of a Peak Three-Star Supernatural radiating from Yan Qi, Marca’s face immediately showed astonishment. It had never crossed his mind that Yan Qi could be a Peak Three-Star Supernatural.
“You… you’re actually a Peak Three-Star Supernatural? How is that possible?”
Hearing Marca’s words, Yan Qi didn’t elaborate. Soon, she brandished her giant black scythe and launched another attack at Marca.
Seeing this, Marca instinctively wanted to defend himself. But, already intimidated by the aura Yan Qi was emitting, how could he possibly withstand her assault?
And so, after a brief but intense clash, Yan Qi finally achieved the victory she desired.
