"Little girl, do you need any extra help?" After discussing the title to be given to Jiang Kehan, the other witches showed her more respect, since witches never denied the strength of others.
They just keep chasing until they die or are replaced.
"No need!" Despite being in such a dangerous situation, Jiang Kehan's smile remained bright as she shouted in response to the other witches.
"I'm almost used to it!"
adapt?
The other witches exchanged bewildered glances, their expressions rather strange as they looked at Jiang Kehan, who had been driven to the tip of the back of the Abyss Dragon. In their eyes, Jiang Kehan had nowhere to hide.
It's likely that the next strike from the Ancient Dragon will bring her punishment.
But only Jiang Kehan knew that the more disheveled she was, the angrier the Yuan Gu Dragon became, and the more powerful the evolution that [Reflection] could provide became!
Jiang Kehan looked into Yuan Gulong's cold eyes. He had already entered a state of rage and added her to his kill list.
Her eyes grew even brighter. Although Jiang Kehan wanted to loudly prove that she was not a masochist, the growing greed in her heart made her selectively ignore the issue.
At this moment, the ferocious appearance of the Ancient Dragon was like a delicacy in her eyes. She only needed to devour it completely to usher in a true transformation.
What is evolution?
Is it physical or spiritual adaptation?
Jiang Kehan originally thought so, but now she has a completely new answer.
Evolution, in essence, is about carrying out one's own resolve, moving towards the edge of destruction with an uncompromising attitude, and abandoning everything that can be abandoned, including the soul.
All for that final moment!
Physical strength can't keep up with the Ancient Dragon's power? Then abandon it! Transform it into even more surging magic and swift thinking, using the most appropriate means to counter the opponent's attack.
The power of magic is insufficient to cause fatal damage? Then let's just change the nature of the magic directly; we might as well die with the enemy anyway!
Fortunately, Jiang Kehan's magic is inherently vast and inclusive, which allows her to support this operation that alters both her magic and other magical properties, a move that would be fatal to other witches.
Jiang Kehan truly felt as if she had turned into some kind of firewood, becoming increasingly ethereal.
But the Ferocious Blade in her hand and the vast tide of magic have become increasingly sharp. From scratching the ancient dragon, they can now cut through its scales and splatter blood.
When a witch is enraged, even gods bleed!
Jiang Kehan was too lazy to wipe away the red marks on her face, whether they were her own or left by the blood of the Ancient Dragon, since she knew they would be pulverized into nothingness by the other party soon anyway.
She now felt that every moment Ningxiao tore through the flesh and blood of the ancient dragon brought her soul a thrilling sensation, as if she were devouring its flesh and blood.
Jiang Kehan knew that this was [Reflection] whispering in her ear—you have already embarked on the right path, so be even more insane, even more greedy, until you devour the other party completely!
Since Yuan Gulong wants to kill her, let's see who can strike harder and faster!
Jiang Kehan grinned maliciously, her eyes fixed intently on the giant tail that was about to deliver a fatal blow to her. The magic contained in the Ferocious Blade in her hand roared even louder until it materialized into a tangible sword light.
She has abandoned all spells except for [Burning Flame], which are completely ineffective against the Ancient Dragon.
On the contrary, the most primal magic, by sheer quantity, makes the sword light even more dazzling and intense.
Leading the way in evolution!
"Is this what it feels like for Li Hui to use witch magic?" Jiang Kehan muttered to herself. It was the first time she had ever felt that casting spells was such a tangible experience.
Normal spellcasting is like remotely controlling a drone; although it allows for flexibility and freedom, it is ultimately separated by a thin veil.
At this moment, Jiang Kehan's burst of magic, performed according to the logic of witch magic, was like having an extra limb. Utilizing the omnipotence of magic itself, combined with the magic characteristics temporarily gained through evolution, it was enough to damage the Ancient Dragon!
That's enough. After all, [Burning Flame] is somewhat similar to the Cursed Frog's Curse of Death. As long as you stack enough, even if the opponent's body is fully restored, they will not escape death.
Thinking about it this way, this spell that allows a witch to be 100% above her level is truly overpowered, which shows how unfathomable Ye Yu himself is.
Moreover, during the entanglement with Yuan Gulong just now, Jiang Kehan had already locked almost half of the opponent's body and soul. If she were to strike again with a powerful attack, the balance of power would likely shift in her favor.
This is a rare opportunity; this strike must hurt the Ancient Dragon!
Jiang Kehan watched the giant tail getting closer and closer to her. Its stone-like tip, resembling a halberd, exceeded the speed of sound. Its sharpness was so great that it could cut through the air with silk, making its movement completely silent.
Moreover, the Ancient Dragon's wings had begun to close at some point, cutting off Jiang Kehan's possibility of teleporting away, which was extremely vicious.
But Jiang Kehan was smiling. She didn't dodge while carrying Ningxiao and went towards the giant tail!
Such a suicidal act made the other witches who were secretly watching her tense up, their eyes unwilling to leave the scene, and they were already prepared to go and rescue Jiang Kehan.
Chapter 340 Two Nights?
"boom!!!"
It sounded like steel hitting a meteorite, or like the noise of fingertips tracing across a blackboard. The other witches narrowed their eyes and raised their staffs high, waiting for the ashes to dissipate.
But what broke their attention was not Jiang Kehan's miserable state, but Yuan Gulong's extremely painful roar.
"Roar!"
The Ancient Dragon raised its head, its originally cold expression turning ferocious, with saliva even spilling from the corner of its mouth. It pressed its wings down hard, then swung its entire body, using the force to make its tail whip like a long whip.
The hurricane whipped up by the wings swept away the surrounding ashes, and the other witches stared in disbelief at Jiang Kehan, who was embedded in the tail of the Abyss Dragon.
Her expression was blank, as if she had completely burned out, but the Ferocious Blade in her hand led her to split the tip of the Ancient Dragon's tail in two, only stopping when she was completely exhausted.
"How is this possible?" The other witches were somewhat stunned. Although Jiang Kehan was in a terrible state, as experienced hunters, they could see that the only one who was truly at a disadvantage was Yuan Gu Long.
Don't let Jiang Kehan's seemingly imminent death fool you; she's a witch, and as long as she doesn't completely vanish into thin air, she'll be a good witch again in a few seconds.
The tail of the Ancient Dragon was completely locked in place by Silver Cliff, binding its body and soul. If it suffers another severe injury, it will inevitably break off completely and will never recover.
Moreover, a certain crimson color, carrying an ominous aura, had somehow crept up onto the broken part of the Abyssal Dragon's tail, clearly indicating that it was not just for show.
The battle had only just begun, but Jiang Kehan had already transformed herself from a mosquito into a behemoth on par with the Ancient Dragon, with her burning will.
"Aren't we... a bit too useless?" The other witches looked at the gods under their command whose bodies and souls had not yet been completely locked away, and were somewhat speechless.
Their life level is much higher than Jiang Kehan's, and the level 6 dragons they face are not as strong as the Ancient Abyss Dragon.
Looking at it now, their output is actually not as good as Jiang Kehan's.
"Well, it's more accurate to say that Jiang Kehan is too abnormal, she's a complete monster."
One witch answered with a smirk, while the other witches quickly came to their senses and nodded emphatically.
They're the best hunters in the village, how could they be useless? It's just that Jiang Kehan is too supermodel-worthy!
Having convinced themselves of this, they felt at ease shifting their gaze away from Jiang Kehan and focusing on dealing with their own prey.
As things stand now, Jiang Kehan doesn't need them to worry unnecessarily.
On the other hand, Jiang Kehan's condition was actually far worse than it appeared. Her mind was blank, and even though her body was recovering at an extremely fast pace, she still couldn't come back to her senses.
Evolution is not without its price. Even with the blessing of [Reflection], she still needs to rely on her own willpower to persevere.
Seeing Jiang Kehan's appearance, Ye Yu sighed slightly, then hooked his tail around Jiang Kehan's neck and bit her with his not-so-sharp cat teeth.
A certain purple aura flowed from the tip of her teeth into Jiang Kehan's blood and magic, which was a characteristic of the magic possessed by Ye Yu.
"You really like to cause trouble, Kehan." Although Ye Yu complained a little, her smile grew wider as she slowly channeled her magical properties into Jiang Kehan's body in a way that Jiang Kehan could not understand.
"Since you can change your own magical properties unconsciously, then you should be able to briefly copy mine?"
Ye Yu blinked and spoke with some uncertainty, but she only made a slight complaint. How could Jiang Kehan, who had completely lost consciousness, possibly hear her?
"But Clara really sent me a monster. I haven't seen such a pure witch in a long time."
"Perhaps you can really help me solve the stubborn problem that's been troubling me and preventing me from leaving the Gate of Time."
Ye Yu sighed softly, then removed his teeth from Jiang Kehan's neck and wiped away the drool left on them with his tail.
She wasn't worried at all about whether Jiang Kehan could recover; instead, she looked towards the direction of Riemann, the capital of France, with a hazy gaze.
There's something Ye Yu never told Jiang Kehan: it's impossible for her past and her future self to coexist in this era.
After all, the uniqueness of the Great Witch is undeniable. Other Great Witches who have lived from this era into the future are not within the portal of time and space. Relying on the isolation established by the Great One, it is natural that the projection of this history can be cut off and ignored.
But Ye Yu, who is located in the portal of time and space, does not have this ability. Logically speaking, there should be at most one "she" here.
But, by chance, Ye Yu did indeed sense another version of herself waiting peacefully in Lemanli, with the power of the witch.
So which one is the real her?
Feeling increasingly drowsy, Ye Yu already had the answer in her heart. She silently looked into the distance, as if looking at a madman who had gone mad.
If... this resentment originated from within her, who could completely stop it?
Ye Yu didn't want to think about it. She looked down at Jiang Kehan and nuzzled the other's cheek, as if she was longing for something.
"I hope you can kill that version of me, Kehan..."
Sorry, Kehan... I'm a little tired, can I take a nap?
Ye Yu murmured to herself that she might already be inseparable from this history. Every time she encountered a historical upheaval, it seemed to be questioning her—why did you choose to move towards nothingness?
Jiang Kehan was unaware of Ye Yu's inner turmoil; she only felt that her consciousness had been strengthened, becoming exceptionally robust.
Almost instantly, she shook off the negative effects and looked around.
“Heroic Spirit Meow, what’s the situation now?” Jiang Kehan asked.
"Meow! Kehan fainted just now, but she recovered in an instant. But be careful, the Ancient Dragon's counterattack is coming!"
"Heroic Spirit Cat reminded me," she said, her tone somewhat anxious.
Jiang Kehan forcefully lifted Ningxiao, which was inserted into the tailbone of the Yuan Gu Dragon, and then looked at her hand holding Ningxiao with some surprise.
She always felt that her state was a bit too solid, not like someone who was burning themselves to evolve.
But feeling the immense force emanating from the tail of the Ancient Dragon, Jiang Kehan didn't dare stop. She lifted her leg and ran, for if she didn't run, she would probably really be reduced to dust.
"Heroic Spirit Cat, can you check if there's anything unusual about me?" But she couldn't resist her curiosity and asked the Heroic Spirit Cat.
As she fled, a peculiar message entered her mind, causing her eyes to widen in surprise.
[Magic Property - Eternal (Temporary): Immune to all abnormal weakening effects... etc.?]
Such a simple sentence left Jiang Kehan completely bewildered.
Where does this magical property come from?
Chapter 341 Growth Far Beyond Expectations
Although puzzled, Jiang Kehan didn't have time to delve into it. She could only tell the Heroic Spirit Cat to pay more attention, and then she focused on dealing with the attack from the Ancient Dragon.
This ancient dragon had completely entered its predatory state, and the surrounding force field was completely crushed, making it impossible for Jiang Kehan to leave its body.
