I Can See Health Bars in Real Life-Chapter 431 - 43: Grateful for Nature’s Gifts (Part 2)
He almost didn't make it just now...
But his character is straightforward and decisive. He doesn't complain when problems arise, and there's no time for that. He simply decisively told the two of them to follow closely behind him and not to leave his side.
"Uh-huh..."
The little girl nodded vigorously and also looked in the distant direction. She finally realized who had just saved her, but since the person didn't come close, she could only thank them in her heart.
......
"Two of the Four Fighting Gods died directly... A good omen."
Gu Mo nodded repeatedly, appearing deeply agreeing. When Gang Luo was shot by an arrow from the witch, he saw the Firebird far away being torn apart alive by Big Dog, with blood spilling across the sky, the fiery boiling blood splattering down into the forest, igniting a raging wildfire.
Xiong Luo represents the "Vermilion Bird" among the Four Fighting Gods, and Gang Luo, who just died, represented the "Black Tortoise"...
Now with two directly slain, it's naturally a good omen, leaving only two so-called Combat Gods.
"Not necessarily... They haven't died but temporarily can't form their bodies," Kikyo said softly. "They weren't pure demons to begin with, more like objects with the Power of the Four Symbols contaminated by demon qi, giving birth to their existence. And they're already dead now..."
Because their essence was taken by Naoki, they relied on sacrificing the island's inhabitants to struggle for survival, living day by day.
As long as the sacrificial rituals stop, the Four Fighting Gods will disappear... That's the state they're in, and since they don't really count as alive, it's naturally tough to kill them again by conventional means. Earlier, Kikyo seemed to be defeating an illusion of Gang Luo, and the same with Xiong Luo torn apart by Big Dog.
If the root issue can't be resolved, they can still reform their bodies and appear once again.
"That's already good... At least two lost their ability to act for now, and the remaining two naturally won't be able to stop us from directly piercing their vital points," Gu Mo chuckled, looking toward the other side of the island where the battle was also intense. However, a strong surge of demon qi seemed to notice what was happening there.
The witch glanced at him, gently resetting the barrier to block all external releases of power and aura.
The incoming demon was a burly man with black and white mixed hair, holding a cannon-like weapon. He furiously scanned the surroundings and then locked onto the only visible Sesshomaru, roaring as he charged toward Big Dog.
"Ahhhhhhh! I'll kill you!!"
This is Beast Luo, the most hot-tempered and reckless among the Four Fighting Gods, able to rival Inuyasha.
Just like now, having only found Sesshomaru, he naturally assumed his two companions were taken down by Sesshomaru, angrily charging over to fight Big Dog... If it were just that, he might be seen as hasty and unobservant.
But he already believed both companions were taken down by Sesshomaru, indicating that despite knowing Big Dog could instantly kill two companions of similar level, he dared to charge alone in anger... What a hymn of bravery.
"Good! You've got guts!"
Gu Mo clicked his tongue as he glanced back.
And during this process, they quietly approached the location of the Clanging Cauldron while the two remaining demons were unaware. Although the island's Spiritual Power source had been polluted by the Four Fighting Gods, this sneaky management of the Clanging Cauldron couldn't compare to having true managerial authority.
Gu Mo didn't immediately clear the demonic power left by the Four Fighting Gods, as that would only alert them unnecessarily.
He walked the path he had followed once before, reaching directly below the volcano with the witch. Inside the massive space within the mountain, he once again saw the Clanging Cauldron before him. He studied the pill furnace, snapped his fingers with a clack, as if issuing an order.
The ground trembled, and the surface of the pill furnace cracked open, releasing a fierce fire dragon...
"Who are you..."
A slightly weak and cautious voice sounded.
The voice was strange... But perhaps this was the soul reenacting the speaking phenomenon from its life, rather than using Kikyo's false body, lacking the vocal organs, so it could be understood this way. A peculiar thought flashed through Gu Mo's mind, then he turned to the witch and said:
"I'll explain, it'll be much simpler."
Contemplating Kikyo paused momentarily, then seemed to look at him with some curiosity.
Gu Mo said nothing, stepping forward a few paces to gaze at the fiercely burning flames within the great cauldron, a shadow faintly visible within the blaze, seemingly on the verge of dissipating.
"Miss Naoki, we came according to the agreement..." Speaking, he sorted the information in his memory while summoning his Guardian Spirit. After all, he's always had means to quickly transmit large amounts of information and explain complex situations.
Though under normal circumstances, they weren't much needed.
Kikyo raised her brows, noticing an ethereal Nine-tailed Fox, like a streak of fire, leaping from this person's body. After circling a few times in the air, it charged straight into the flames-filled great cauldron.
