The Book of Maiden Contract

Yakumo Zi took the initiative to challenge Lily, which made Lin Luo feel very incredible. After all, Yakumo Zi is strong, but she is not a militant madman like Cirno. In fact, her surname is closer to Hakurei Reimu, so she is too lazy to do it. Shikigami Yakumo Lan, who is in charge of managing Gensokyo's Great Barrier but pushes everything to her, is rarely seen at ordinary times, let alone work, but now... Sure enough, the reason for this guy's behavior is really confusing.

"Of course!" Lily would never refuse a challenge from others, not to mention Yakumo Zi's unfathomable strength gave her the urge to fight, so she agreed without hesitation.

Although Lin Luo felt that it was impossible for Lily to defeat Yakumo Zi, Yakumo Zi would not kill in Gensokyo, at least not when there was a third party, so she did not raise any objections. Moreover...Lily is now only one realm away from the ground level, and the battle with Yakumo Zi will probably give her something to gain.

"Then please." Seeing that Lily agreed so readily, Yakumo Zi smiled slightly, and when the wind blew, she had disappeared in place. When I looked again, I found that she was standing on a spacious platform not far away.

"This..." Before the battle even started, Yakumo Zi's elusiveness had already put Lily under great pressure. She didn't react at all to the momentary movement just now. If the opponent's ability was used in battle, it would be extremely difficult for her to win, but she would not retreat because of this. On the contrary, her blood was boiling!

"Ah, this banquet has become more interesting." Seeing Lily rushing down the Sakura Peak at lightning speed, Yuyuko smiled with her fan covered, with a look in her eyes that no one could understand.

"What do you think? About this battle." Lin Luo couldn't help asking.

"My opinion, it's really hard to say..." Youyouzi closed her fan, raised her head slightly, and seemed to be thinking seriously. After a while, she turned her head to look at Lin Luo, and said with a smile, "Perhaps Zi wants to loosen his muscles and bones. After all, he is already very old. If he doesn't move, his body will rot."

"..." Well, asking this foodie is simply a wrong choice.

Since he couldn't get any useful answers from Yuyuko, Lin Luo didn't hesitate anymore, and looked down. At this moment, Lily and Yakumo Zi were standing facing each other. The former held a sword in both hands with a dignified face, and his body was full of momentum, while the latter held an umbrella in his right hand and a fan in his right, looking calm and relaxed.

In the same battle, one is facing the enemy, while the other is turning a blind eye, the level of the two will be judged.

"Are you planning to fight like this? Knights don't kill unarmed people." Lily frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice, Yakumo Zi's relaxed posture made her somewhat uncomfortable.

"So you're a knight. It's hard to see an upright knight like you these days." Yakumo Zi seemed very satisfied with Lily, as if chatting with an old friend, "But you don't need to worry about it. I'm not a monster who uses weapons. If I insist, the two things in my hand are weapons."

"I see." Lily nodded in a deep voice. From the very beginning, she knew that the other party's strength was far superior to hers. The reason why she asked that question was only because of her chivalry. Since the other party had already replied clearly, there was no need to hesitate, "I've offended you!"

Before she finished speaking, Lily launched an attack, pointing her toes on the ground, she shot towards Zi Yakumo like lightning, and in less than a blink of an eye, Lily arrived with the sword, and the sharp edge of the sword that radiated bright light directly hit Yakumo Zi's neck.

"So fast!" Youmu couldn't help exclaiming, with a look of shock in her eyes. Her running speed on the ground has always been the fastest in Gensokyo, but at this moment she is even slower than Lily.

"It's very powerful, not like a firefly." Youyuko laughed.

Against an unprecedentedly powerful enemy like Yakumo Zi, Lily showed no mercy, and made the most swift attack when she made a move, but facing Lily's deadly attack, Yakumo Zi didn't seem to take it seriously at all, with a faint smile on her face and a leisurely and comfortable look in her eyes. With just a light rest of the fan, the invincible Sword in the Stone was blocked, and it was difficult to advance any further.

Lily's face changed slightly. Now that the seal of the sword in the stone has been released, the physical slash alone is enough to cut through the most solid defense net, but at this moment, she can't even slash the opponent's fan, which is simply unbelievable.

Before Yakumozi counterattacked, Lily backed away violently. From this blow, she already knew that the opponent's strength was definitely not something she could easily contend with. Even if it was just for fun, it was enough to kill her... Such an opponent with 100% strength is obviously not enough, and must use 120% strength!

"I am invincible!"

Lily raised the sword in the stone and shouted. Immediately, a dazzling golden light shot straight into the sky, and then fell from the sword. In an instant, her whole body was bathed in the golden light, and her momentum rose steadily. The pure white armor was dyed golden, which was extremely dazzling in this dark underworld.

It's just that this phenomenon lasted for less than a moment, and all those golden lights had entered her body, and she returned to her ordinary appearance again, but... Seeing this scene, even Zi Yakumo no longer turned a blind eye to it.

"From showing sharpness to domineering restraint, this is the realm of turning back to simplicity..." Zi Yakumo praised lightly, but then said, "However, the sharp-edged aura is still a tangible thing after all, and it has fallen behind."

Lin Luo understands what Yakumo Zi said about the state. Lily's sharp-edged aura has reached the ground level only in terms of strength. Even after using You Wo Invincible, her power has made a further breakthrough, but she is still above "use" after all. After all, she can make people see her strength, so she can only be at the peak of the spiritual level. The real level is... the invisible power!

When Lily can erase that unparalleled aura, she will truly step into the realm.

"Then try my inferior power!" However, as the so-called bystanders are obsessed with the authorities, Lily who was in the battle obviously couldn't understand the meaning of Yakumo Zi's words.

Yakumo Zi chuckled, facing the extremely domineering sword light, she just raised her hand lightly, and in the next instant, that sword light had completely disappeared into the space. Before Lily could react, and without seeing her make any movement, her hand was already on Lily's sword edge.

"This is my power, the realm of existence and non-existence."

While talking, Yakumo Zi put the sun umbrella in her left hand forward, and an invisible force gushed out from the tip of the umbrella. A warning flashed in Lily's heart, her face changed drastically, and she immediately retreated.

Lily swung her sword instinctively and slashed, but those rays of light seemed to have self-awareness, and suddenly dispersed, completely avoiding Lily's slashing, and after her sword stopped, they attacked Lily from all directions.

If you can manipulate the realm at will, you can manipulate the power at will. Whether it is the barrage or the realm, to Yakumo Zi, they are just playthings in the hands.

"Ah, ah, that guy Zi seems to be a little serious, she can't get rid of her habit of teaching people." Looking at the battle that could hardly be called a battle not far away, Yuyuko said suddenly.

Lin Luo concentrated and remained silent. He felt that Yakumo Zi seemed to be guiding Lily to step into the ground. After all, what she said now was related to the ground, but what was her purpose in doing so? Zima is not a good person, let alone be a good teacher, she is not going to Bai Ze Huiyin, unless the object is Hakurei Reimu.

On the other side, with 12 points of strength, Lily finally escaped Yakumo Zi's barrage. The opponent's strength made her startled again, but she would not shrink back because of this. The stronger the opponent, the more eager to move in her heart.

"If you have any other moves, just use them." Yakumo Zi said calmly without pursuing.

"As you wish!" Lily looked serious, she knew that ordinary attacks would not work against Yakumo Zi, and now, the only hope of defeating him was one move.

Holding up the Sword in the Stone, Lily shouted loudly: "...Called! Knights of the Round Table!"

In an instant, the color of the sky and the earth changed, and the boundless underworld turned into an endless sand battle. 151 Knights of the Round Table stood on the battlefield, and the first one rode on a dragon horse and sat high in the sky.

"Wow!" Seeing this scene, Youyouzi suddenly exclaimed, covering her small mouth with a fan and full of curiosity, "I wonder if the legendary Ryomaye is delicious?"

"..." Lin Luo was really speechless, this foodie is hopeless!

"This is my strongest blow... Knights! Charge!" Lily pointed at Yakumo Zi with the tip of her sword, and hundreds of heroic spirits rushed forward immediately. Although there was only one opponent, the king's order was absolute.

"Such outstanding leadership is indeed the wealth of a king, but it's a pity..." In Lily's inherent barrier, facing the earth-shattering aura erupted by hundreds of powerful heroic spirits, Yakumo Zi's expression remained unchanged. While the heroic spirits were attacking, she lightly waved the fan in her right hand.

"This is the boundary between heaven and earth."

The next moment, the sky cracked, the ground shattered, and the heroic spirits fell into chaos, as if they were about to fall into the endless abyss. Finally... with a crash, the inherent barrier shattered, and the battlefield turned into the underworld again.

"..." Lili was stunned, too shocked to speak.

"I'll take this person away first." Before Lily came back to her senses, Yakumo Zi had appeared behind Lin Luo, put his shoulders on his shoulder and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I won't hurt him. I just borrowed it temporarily. The price for borrowing has been paid just now. As for whether you can get it, that's up to you."

"stop!"

Lily turned pale with shock, but before she finished speaking, Yakumo Zi had already led Lin Luo into the gap...
