The verdant vines finally completely obscured the sky, enveloping the Hinagami Hakuya and Hikotsuki Hokusai under a semicircular dome.

But even though these vines obscure the sky, there is still light within them.

That's right, it's the [Garden of the Dead] that was created with the purple elemental stone before. Because of its existence, the entire Chigusa Chamber is now filled with purple light.

As for the remaining four players, they were isolated from the Thousand Grass Vault.

Other words.

This Chikusa Secret Room was built by Hinagami Hakuya in order to win a decisive victory with Hikotsuki Hokusai - a competition venue that only belongs to the two of them.

In this secret room, there will be no interference from other players, and there will be no outsiders watching, everything will be carried out in this top-secret environment and top-secret world.

"That's really ......"

I have to say that for this behavior of the Hinagami Hakuya, Hikotsuki Hokusai seems to feel a little excited. So much so that he held Shui Yue's hand and began to shake the martial arts.

Of course, this is not a trembling of fear, but a real martial shock.

……

"But why would he do it?" Elise stared at the pitch-black screen, completely covered in vines, and fell into thought.

Truly.

It stands to reason. The young god White Night is just a shell that kills according to the procedure, and such an act is too unreasonable for him.

"If he just wanted to kill Hikotsuki Hokusai, he didn't need to waste an elemental stone to do such a thing." Elise lowered her head, as if rummaging through her memory.

And it deliberately blocked the view of the outside world...... Is it because he doesn't want to be known to outsiders what he's about to do? If that's the case, then it's ......"

"Does that mean he's no longer a mere killing procedure?" Nangong Xiaya, who heard Elise talking to herself, turned her head and looked at her and said.

"Well, but it's probably not because of his ability to learn, but because of a soul he relies on." Elise thought for a moment and said, "A soul with a strong obsession with Hikotsuki Hokusai, that's why he created such an isolated space with him. ”

"But." Elise still couldn't figure it out, "I don't think anyone has such an obsession with Hikotsuki Hokusai, and they have to duel behind closed doors or something, such a thing...... Base...... There is no ......"

"Not really." Elise's face gradually changed.

Looks like she's finally got it.

There are people who have a slight obsession with the matter of [Duel with Hikotsuki Hokusai].

And Elise also happens to know him.

But it was precisely because she understood this incident that Elise was reluctant to admit that it had happened.

"Don't let your emotions sway, little girl."

Nangong Xiaya walked up to Elise's side and patted her on the shoulder earnestly.

……

The elemental stones suspended behind the young god Bai Ye were only one yellow and one black, but it seemed that he didn't want to use these two elemental stones immediately.

"Buzz ......" At this moment, the twelve layers of shields wrapped around the young god White Night disappeared in a flicker.

It seems that this should have been canceled by himself.

"What's going on?" But Hikotsuki Hokusai had deep doubts about this behavior.

He wondered, not caring if the behavior of the young god White Night had other intentions, but caring about another thing.

Do you remember the battle between Hikotsuki Hokusai and Twilight Rain on the Tower of the Divine Habitat?

In that war, one thing was explicitly mentioned.

The Taidao Mizuki on Hokusai's waist can ignore any defenses and shields.

Therefore, regardless of whether or not Hinagami Hakuya has mage armor, it has no effect on the water moon in Hokusai's hands.

But the young god White Night canceled the twelve layers of armor.

That means that he probably knows the specific properties of the water moon in Hokusai's hand.

"But how did he know?"

"Forget it."

Hokusai's hand grasped the scabbard tightly, waved away the distracting thoughts in his mind, and began to move around the Hinagami Hakuya.

[The white night of the young god is not a long night on the edge].

This is something that Hikotsuki Hokusai still understands.

Therefore, he did not treat the person in front of him as a marginal long night, nor did he use the memories of the previous battles with the marginal long night as a reference.

But at this moment, he hoped that the person in front of him was a long night on the edge.

Because for all the hard black fog that Rim Night has, at least he doesn't have the kind of dominance that he has in melee range.

"Tell me, what the hell is that punch?"

The blow that shattered the white light directly from before was still in Hikotsuki Hokusai's mind.

That kind of boxing is also a great shock for him, who is also refined in martial arts.

Therefore, this made him have a great fear of being close to the young god White Night.

"I don't have the confidence to fight that kind of fist." He paced around the white night of the young god, thinking to himself, "I have to find a way to get close to him." ”

But his idea came true right away.

There was no need for him to rack his brains to think about how to get close to the Hinagami Hakuya, because the Hinagami Hakuya would take the initiative to come to him.

"Cut!"

With a cannon of strong fist wind, he came directly towards the face door of Hina God Hakuya, but fortunately, Hikotsuki Hokusai's dynamic vision and reflexes were beyond ordinary people, so before the fist wind arrived, he had already turned sideways and avoided this fatal blow.

And since Hikotsuki Hokusai dodged Hinagami Hakuya's fist, it means that Hinagami Hakuya's body has entered an ineffective attack action.

That is, the so-called, flawed.

[Water Moon: Void]!

It was a sword drawing technique that could only be unleashed by Hikotsuki Hokusai.

When the sword was unsheathed, the blade turned purple due to the glow of the dead garden.

Purple light burst out of the scabbard, and the blade emerged in the darkness, and completed a high-speed slash in just one frame.

But the real feeling of the slash did not reach Hikotsuki Hokusai's body.

Because this knife missed.

It didn't slash at Hinagami Hakuya's body, but pierced through it directly, as if Hinagami Hakuya didn't exist at all in that frame.

Could it be that Hinagami White Night has no entity from the beginning?

No, it can't be, the idea is stupid. Because there is countless evidence that he really exists on this battlefield.

So since he is real, what method did he use to make his entity disappear in that frame?

And at the same time it means another thing.

"He had to dodge my stab for a reason, because if I did, he wouldn't be unscathed...... I see, even if it's the young god White Night, will he be afraid of getting hurt? ”
