I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch

Seeing the Spiritual Artifact appear, Wu Mo raised his hand to beckon it.

He then fell silent.

He beckoned again, but the distant shotgun showed no reaction.

Wu Mo: "?"

At the same time, a coin flickering with silver light appeared above the shotgun, spinning as it fell, facing up!

Lao Liu: "?"

"Brother Lao Liu, Brother Wu, can you remotely control the Spiritual Artifact now?" A woman's puzzled voice sounded beside them.

Lao Liu looked confused and shook his head. "Something feels off. I still can't sense the location of the Spiritual Artifact... Brother Wu, what about you?"

Wu Mo frowned deeply, also unclear about the situation.

However, he quickly figured out the reason.

"Tsk, putting on airs." He sneered and shook his head. "It must be some kind of Illusion Technique with Spiritual Clothes, a trick to lure us closer. Just ignore it."

"But... But Brother Wu, your gun seems to be gathering energy!" the woman exclaimed in alarm.

In the distance, the muzzle of the shotgun began to glow blue, flickering slowly at first then wildly escalating, rapidly growing in power.

Everyone looked up in surprise, gazing into the distance, but they weren't panicking.

After all, the shotgun was Brother Wu's Spiritual Artifact; the one opposing them was surely a fake or some kind of illusion.

"This illusion is quite interesting..."

Wu Mo smiled. "The imitation does look quite convincing."

"Indeed, it even mimicked all of our Spiritual Artifacts," the crowd noted as they watched their own Spiritual Artifacts appear one by one out of nowhere, seemingly enhancing the shotgun with various supportive effects. They found it amusing.

"Alright, although it's the enemy's trick, it might not necessarily be an illusion. Let's not let our guard down."

Wu Mo said in a grave tone, dispersing the Spiritual Clothes field. "Deploy the Turtle Shell Formation, be cautious and defend!"

"Yes!"

Everyone responded in unison, quickly assuming a triangular formation. A pale green Spiritual Clothes field spread out, the intricate Spiritual Particle structures connecting one by one among the ten people, swiftly completing a unified form.

In an instant, a pale green turtle-shell-shaped protective barrier was constructed, encompassing all ten people.

This Turtle Shell Formation was a rare, rank B Spiritual Clothes, which their squad had trained with for nearly twenty years to master, a high-level Spiritual Clothes.

The Ten Dragon Spear was their spear, and the Turtle Shell Formation was their shield.

Regrettably, while the power of the Ten Dragon Spear was enough to severely injure unguarded True Martial Strong People, the Turtle Shell Formation couldn't withstand the attack of True Martial Strong People.

Their shield was much weaker than their spear, which was the only weakness of their Spiritual Artifact squad.

But this was still quite impressive; after all, just the powerful Ten Dragon Spear was enough for them to rank among the top Spiritual Artifact squads.

After Xia Feng exited the Nirvana State, he immediately entered Concealment and then took out the shotgun.

What surprised him, however, was that the distant ten people didn't think of fleeing but were instead preparing to tough it out in formation.

It seemed likely that this enemy squad might possess a defensive class A-level Spiritual Clothes? Xia Feng speculated in his mind. Only with such an artifact could they easily withstand the combined power of their own Spiritual Artifacts.

Xia Feng had already seen two attack-type A-level Spiritual Clothes but had not encountered a defensive type, so this could be an opportunity to learn about one.

Thinking this, he began to accelerate the infusion of Spiritual Particles.

After the Spiritual Prohibition coin landed heads up, his spiritual quantity received a considerable boost of 20%.

Adding the 8% spiritual quantity boost from the C-rank Spiritual Artifact, Spiritual Benefit Scepter, along with various other buffs to spiritual quantity, Spiritual Artifact power, and Spiritual Energy destructiveness, he only used 15% of his own spiritual quantity to gather the energy equivalent to four dragon blasts!

"Brother Wu, that shotgun's gathering of Spiritual Energy is starting to feel quite real..."

Beneath the Turtle Shell, Lao Liu felt an uneasy palpitation.

As everyone saw a second dragon shape forming at the muzzle of the distant shotgun, their brows furrowed, a sensation that didn't quite feel like an illusion...

"Brother Wu, are you sure that's not your Spiritual Artifact?"

Wu Mo: "..."

Just as everyone was filled with doubt, a third dragon shape formed at the muzzle, the surrounding space began to distort, and the sky turned ominously darker.

Upon witnessing this scene, everyone seemed to realize something, their expressions changing in an instant.

But before they could react, a fourth dragon shape appeared from the muzzle of the gun!

"?"

In just two seconds, four dragons were condensed; despite their coordination perfected over so many years, they could at most condense three dragons in such a timeframe.

This wasn't the right time to think about that—

Boom!!!

Four blue dragons roared out of the gun's mouth, intertwining with each other, tearing through the sky with a deafening roar; the dim world seemed to be painted anew on a canvas with light blue paint.

In the world of the painting, the ancient beast-like four dragons stirred terrifying air waves, devastating everything in their path as they charged directly toward them!!

This power, this momentum, these dragon heads, were definitely their Spiritual Artifact abilities, and even stronger!!

Everyone's minds went blank, they wanted to run, but in reality, the moment they chose to set up the Turtle Shell Formation, they no longer had time to escape.

The four dragon heads directly smashed through the Turtle Shell, which barely resisted for less than 0.5 seconds before shattering; finally, a thought broke through their blank minds.

It was terror and cursing at the brink of death.

Damn, it's not some lousy Illusion Technique at all! Who the hell said it was an illusion!

What they found unacceptable and incomprehensible was that they were actually being killed by their own combined Spiritual Artifact powers!

As the bombing subsided, their flesh dissolved, bones left in ruins, and residual souls annihilated in the explosion, floated up and dispersed.

They saw a figure slowly emerging behind the rifle, clad in a mysterious black robe, covered with a black mask.

It was the masked person!

Many Spiritual Artifacts, all theirs, floated quietly around the masked person.

The ten residual souls: "!!"

At this point, how could they not understand; it seemed… it appears… it might be that this masked person had stolen their Spiritual Artifacts?!

And to top it off, all ten in one go!

Is there no law anymore? Are we not talking about the basic laws of Spiritual Artifacts anymore!

What kind of absurd ability is this...

Wu Mo watched helplessly as his beloved rifle shone brilliantly in the hands of the masked person; he felt like the sky was falling, how could this be happening!

Carrying strong confusion and resentment, their souls vanished into thin air.

The ten-member team died so quickly, Xia Feng hadn't even had time to react…

After a moment of silence, he quietly set down his rifle.

He had initially expected to see Advanced Defense-type Spiritual Clothes, but the opponents turned out to be mere showpieces, pathetically weak.

Seeing the battle end so quickly, Mu Qingtong walked slowly to the edge of the battlefield, looked up at the masked person above and expressed some surprise,

"Mr. Xia, is this your Holy Release ability?"

She knew Xia Feng's ability was to snatch Spiritual Artifacts, but the immediate grab of so many, it was most likely an enhanced Holy Release ability.

Xia Feng rather smugly shook the rifle in his hand: "How about that, impressive isn't it, are you scared~"

"It is an impressive ability indeed," Mu Qingtong nodded.

"Miss Mu, to put it this way, with my current state, you're no match for me!" Xia Feng proudly smiled.

"It's good to be confident," Mu Qingtong smiled lightly and looked up, "But Mr. Xia, how can you be so sure that you can defeat my Holy Release ability?"

As she spoke, cross symbols spun in her beautiful eyes, meeting Xia Feng's gaze through the mask.

"..." Xia Feng silently averted his gaze, his heart secretly complaining, damn, this Witch really did achieve a temporary Holy Release standard!

However, thinking about this, Xia Feng was also curious about what her Holy Release ability might be.

"Miss Mu, it looks like I need to find an opportunity to spar with you again!"

Having witnessed Mr. Xia's Holy Release ability, Mu Qingtong couldn't help but look forward even more to the opportunity to completely outdo Mr. Xia! She needed to figure out a way to extract more of his secrets!

"But before that, there's still something we need to take care of."

Xia Feng looked up excitedly at the crater above, he truly sensed it—the upgrade to A-rated Spiritual Artifacts, right up there!
