70 Chapter 70: Ten Thousand Beast Mountains (2/2)
”What is....” Little Fairy didn't get to finish her question before....
Without saying anything, Yun Che suddenly jumped from the eagle towards the top of the dome.
”That rascal, sister Retsu? What are you…” Little Fairy was shocked he jumped from this high without a proper planning but she didn't even expect Retsu suddenly jumped as well.
”Weeeee!!!!!” She shouted in a cute voice while making her way as well.
”Those TWO!! Cang Yue, land us somewhere safe and let's help them.”
The small clan of the ancient ruins
”Clan leader, those white masked beasts are attacking for months. If this keeps up, the barrier won't hold for much longer.” One of the villagers asked the clan leader of the village.
”This is as I feared, looks like we the Phoenix Clan are destined to perished.” The clan leader said with a heavy expression.
Seeing the situation was dire, a man suddenly said ”Caiyun, take the kids and go. Flee this clan.”
Without a fear expression she said ”No, we're going to die as family together. If you're fighting and I am fighting as well.”
”Caiyun listen to me, those beasts are at least at Nascent and True Profound Realm beast. I won't able to die peacefully if you died as well.” The man insisting his wife but she continued to hug her kids and said to him. ”Say what you want and I am not going. I am not letting our kids grew up without a father.”
The village was protected by a special array which condensed into a form of a barrier. The hollows came by a year ago and started attacking them. At first, they only attack for a few days before falling back and came again a month later with more numbers. The process repeated for the whole year and they started to see the barrier was slowly dissipating. Those hollows surround the village and attack from all direction of the barrier either from land or sky. The clan was not strong enough to fight even one of them in a battle. As hope seems lost for the village, all of a sudden they heard a shout from the skies.
When they looked up in the sky, they saw a black cloaked young man suddenly came from the sky towards their direction. He was soon followed by another figure wearing the same cloak but wearing a white cloak on top of it.
”Clan leader what is that?” The man from before asking the clan leader. He was still holding his wife's hand fearing another bad situation might occur.
”I don't know. If that man came with ill intention, then there's nothing we can do.” The village chief said while looking at the young man silhouette.
However, the young man soon arrived on the barrier before pulling out a sword. But this sword was large and it didn't look like any sword they've seen. It looks more like a knife and it had white straps on the back.
Yun Che pulled out Zangetsu from his body and arrived at top of the barrier. Then, the villagers saw something underneath his feet. It looks more like a red bright board under his feet. Yun Che formed a board using his Quincy Manipulation Art and when he arrived on top of the barrier.
Yun Che slides from the top most of the dome barrier to the bottom. He slides from side to side avoiding any incoming attack from aerial type hollows and when he arrived at the middle part of the barrier. He suddenly increased his energy before jumping from the barrier towards the hollows on the ground. He swings Zangetsu on top of his head before.....
BOOM!!!
His landing created a loud explosion on the hollows side and he immediately rise to his feet and immediately swings Zangetsu's strap in a circular motion.
His swings take out all the hollows in one swift motion before jumping around throwing Zangetsu in any direction. Infusing his spirit force into the sword and creating explosion from anywhere he threw the sword. Pulling back and throwing it again. He keeps on attacking while notification continuously ringing in his head.
Retsu didn't pulled the same stunt as Yun Che. She shot up a massive Hadō #31. Shakkahō from above and creating a large explosion as well. When she arrived, she draws her Zanpakuto and continued to attack the hollows as fast as the eye could see. The hollows weren't even reacting when she cut them into smaller pieces and fired off kido blasts while at it.
Little Fairy arrived moments later and saw the mayhem these two had created and sigh internally. This is how they attack, without any plans whatsoever. Just go in swinging swords every way they go. As for her, she just jumped to the other side and activated the Frozen Cloud Arts. She simply freezes the hollows before using her profound energy to shatter them. She didn't want to waste her stamina on weaker beings. She's not like the other two who enjoyed their killing spree of these beasts.
Cang Yue was a little scared at first when she saw hundreds of these things but she didn't want to feel like a useless baggage to them. In the end, she jumped to the weaker area and started attacking them. No matter how large these hollows, they are just at the True Profound Realm and she easily handled them. She sometimes falls back to have Little Fairy thin their numbers a little. Looks like their guidance really put her abilities to the test this time. Yun Che and Retsu have faith on her abilities and they could easily get to her if situation is too dire.
”Getsuga Tenshou!!” Yun Che fired multiple Getsugas across the battlefield destroying any hollow in its way. To make things interesting, he decided to test his newly made self-created kido art on these hollows. He created some kind of array using his previous knowledge on magic and fuse them with his spirit force. The results were quite interesting in the end. He tapped the heads of the hollow as fast as he could before jump from hollow to hollow doing the same thing. His tap created a small spirit circle on its head before jumping away as far as he could from them.
”Try this on for size. Geijutsu wa Bakuhatsu da (Art is Explosion)!!! Katsu!!” He said with a smile and snapped his fingers before all the spirit circle on the hollow's head started to explode taking the lesser ones beside it. Multiple explosions are heard across the battlefield as all the circles explodes simultaneously.
”Haha, Y'all see that? That's my diversion. They died on this version. I am going to called it 'Magic Bomb' ”He said happily while looking at the Spirit circle on his hand.
[Ding…. Congratulation host for creating a self-created Kido Art ”Magic Bomb”. Host has also achieve the achievement 'I am a beginner craftsman. Experience points +.... SP + 7500]
Satisfied with the results, he continued firing off Getsugas and Magic Bombs around the battlefield once more. Right now, the hundreds of hollows slowly thin down into tens of them.
Multiple slashes and explosions are heard across the village. The villagers and the clan leader were gaping seeing their performances. From one side blue shaped energy arc and red blue explosions are flying everywhere. Then, another side full of flying ice shards and slashes.
”Clan leader? Am I dreaming right now.”
”The heavens, the heavens are blessing our clan right now. They send help from up there to help us.” With that, all the villagers suddenly shouting for victory as they saw the hollows are dying down.
When hollows are killed, their souls were purified and send them to the afterlife. So, the hollows killed by them disappears immediately into thin air. With the last hollow was killed by Yun Che, the villagers shouted for victory again started running towards them. With that, they finally end the year long harassment by the hollows to the village.
Yun Che breathe a breath of relief and holding Zangetsu on his shoulder. Not long after that, Retsu arrived at Yun Che's side and give him a peace sign while still holding her Zanpakuto.
”Well that was fun, it was great to kick off some muscles after few days of silence.” He said while stabbing Zangetsu on the ground.
Slowly sheathing her Zanpakuto ”*giggle. I too had my share of fun young master. I could finally test a lot of Kido spells while at it.”
A voice suddenly came from a distance before arriving at their side. ”Yun Che! Sister Retsu! There you are. You had me worried when you jumped off like that.” Cang Yue was still holding her sword while her red hair was flowing in the air.
”*Knock. Idiot, next time try to think first before doing your own stunts like that. Retsu, you should be careful when following this rascal in the future.” Little Fairy suddenly arrived next to him and hits his head. This idiot only knows how to create mayhem without even thinking.
”Haha, don't worry. I have strength to back it up. Or are you worry about me that much?” Yun Che rubs his head before showing her a grin. Little Fairy blushed a little before turning her head around.
”Hmph, who in the world worries about you.” Her antics caused Yun Che to laugh followed by a giggle from Retsu. Cang Yue didn't know what's going on simply shrugged her shoulders while consoling Little Fairy.
Suddenly, they felt massive reaitsu suddenly pressurized the area. They weren't affected and villagers were protected by the barrier. This pressure strong enough to be felt by Cang Yue and Little Fairy.
Retsu suddenly said ”Young master, this pressure is quite strong compared to these low rank hollows.”
”No, it can't be….” If the pressure is stronger, he knew the hollow is stronger than a True Profound Realm hollow. There's only one reason.
”Rascal, what is this…” Little Fairy could feel the presence as well. It was different than the presence she felt before.
”Its…” Before he could finish his sentence, he could hear a rip was slowly opening in the sky. All eyes are on that rip until it was big enough to create a big hole in the sky. Yun Che knew that rip well. It was a small scale Garganta opening up in front of him. All of a sudden, they saw something cause all of them to widen their eyes.
”Heavens!!! What is that?” The questions asked by the villagers were more like wanted to know the abomination that slowly peeks its head at the hole. Cang Yue and Little Fairy were no different but Yun Che and Retsu knew this one very well.
A massive head was slowly entering the hole followed by eight massive white and creepy fingers on its side. Looks like it tried to rip the hole to make it larger for it to come through. It they were to describe the head, the head was donned in black and only had big white mask on it. Its eyes were red and had long pointy nose with three holes on it. The mouth was big enough for humans to fit on it. When it entered, it looked at them for a moment before letting out a big roar.
”ROOOOAAARRRR!!!!”
”What in the world is THAT THING?!?” Cang Yue shouted on top of her voice.
Yun Che pulls Zangetsu from the ground and observed the approaching thing. ”Hmph, I was wondering when you will show up. Its my first time in real life seeing a real life Menos.”
