Chapter 105: Stalemate

On the other hand, Sima Qiudao, he only had a vague guess about the beauty god Reiko, and estimated that his combat power should not be as good as the original female ninja (Scarlet Rain Rinka). After all, the female ninja (Scarlet Rain Rinka), as a pure hand-to-hand martial arts faction, specializes in martial arts and ninjutsu, which is more suitable for surprise assassination and is still the main target of human masters; ON THE OTHER HAND, GHOSTSWEEPERS, WHO ARE MORE INCLINED TO EXORCISM, FOCUS ON FIGHTING DEMONS AND MONSTERS WITH OBVIOUS WEAKNESSES, AS LONG AS THEY ARE SEALED OR EVEN EXPELLED, THEY DON'T HAVE TO BE KILLED ON THE SPOT. Therefore, we will never pursue extreme combat power like that.

No matter what the two sides expected from each other, the battle finally began. The beauty god Reiko really rushed forward very quickly, and waved the speed and power that a delicate beauty should have, with a magic stick of one meter two or three, and came to split Huashan with a force!

Sima Qiudao was also very experienced in this kind of violent opponent who liked hand-to-hand combat, and immediately commanded Yanhu, who was already on standby, to pounce forward to block. Although strictly speaking, the Yan Tiger, which is originally a spiritual lifeform, is not a suitable choice for the front row of meat shields, but with its flame attributes and good strength and speed, how can it contain the incoming enemy.

It does, it seems. No matter how confident Reiko is, she is still a human, far from being a tough mid-level monster like the Great Tengu. Moreover, even the Great Tengu did not dare to resist the attack of the Yanhu in its heyday. Therefore, it is not surprising that Reiko Meishen can only use the power of her newly accumulated full momentum on Yanhu with one blow.

When the supernatural rod filled with spiritual power met the flame claws of the flame tiger pounced, it caused a violent explosion, accompanied by a roar of pain. Yanhu really couldn't withstand the ferocious blow of the beautiful god Reiko, and immediately withered. Reiko Meishen has so much experience in combat, under the one blow, she immediately threw out a standard magic breaking talisman commonly used by GHOSTSWEEPER, and the heavily injured Yan Hu couldn't react for a while, and was pasted on the word "king" in the middle of the skull, and then the magic breaking talisman was stimulated, and this Yan Tiger was wiped out in a strong spiritual power explosion fluctuation.

The resulting explosion instantly formed a violent cloud of flames and dust, which quickly engulfed the space in front of Sima Qiudao and Meijin Reiko and gradually expanded, and the two had to retreat separately in order to avoid being affected, well, the first time they fought each other, and the trial was over.

PS - Magic Breaking Talisman, the standard magic breaking talisman commonly used by GHOSTSWEEPER, this special special talisman is actually marked on the back of its maker's pricing for this talisman! Moreover, the price of each card is expensive. Generally speaking, the more expensive the Magic Breaker, the more powerful and reliable it is. In the case of the magic breaking talisman that Reiko Migami used to destroy the Flame Tiger, the price was as high as 500,000 yen. This was still used to make up for the knife when Yan Hu was in a sluggish state after drinking a blow before he ate it. Otherwise, a single 500,000 yen magic breaker would not be able to destroy the Yan Tiger, and it might not even be able to hit.

IT CAN BE SEEN FROM THIS THAT THE PRICE OF GHOSTSWEEPER'S EXORCISM IS RIDICULOUSLY HIGH, BUT THE COST IS VERY HIGH. There is a big factor in the price of the Broken Talisman. A QUALIFIED OR EVEN EXCELLENT GHOSTSWEEPER MUST NOT ONLY HAVE EXTRAORDINARY SPIRITUAL TALENT AND CULTIVATION, BUT ALSO HAVE AN ACCURATE ESTIMATE OF THE TARGET TO CONTROL THE COST CONSUMPTION TO THE GREATEST EXTENT.

Otherwise, due to a misjudgment in the demon removal task, the loss of consumable items such as the magic breaking talisman is serious, then the income cannot offset the cost of expenditure, so it will go bankrupt sooner or later. THIS IS ALSO A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT GHOSTSWEEPERS WHO HAVE NO FAMILY HERITAGE MUST FACE. Because there is no secret method and secret technique inherited from the origin, and there is no tame spirit beast or Shikjin that has been handed down for hundreds of years, you can only rely on your personal talent to cultivate spiritual power and use this expensive magic breaking talisman to fight to exorcise demons.

Because there is no reliable front-row meat shield or auxiliary combat power, so you have to fight on the front line of danger yourself, and everything needs to be done by yourself. This will inevitably lead to a very high cost (if you don't want to get hurt, you can only use money to smash it, and use items such as broken talismans to consume).

IN CONTRAST, MOCHIZUKI SHUANGJIAO, AN EXORCIST WHO HAS A SECT INHERITANCE AND HAS MASTERED MANY INHERITANCE SECRET METHODS, IS VERY ADVANTAGEOUS, AND WITHOUT THE COST PRESSURE BROUGHT BY THE MAGIC TALISMAN, IT CAN COMPLETELY COMPETE VICIOUSLY WITH ORDINARY GHOSTSWEEPERS BY LOWERING THE COMMISSION ACCEPTANCE PRICE.

FORTUNATELY, THE NUMBER OF SUCH EXORCISTS IS VERY SMALL, YOU DON'T SEE IT, EVEN THE FAMOUS, AS STRONG AS FATHER TANG LONG ZHENHONG, AND REIKO MEIJIN BELONG TO THE LIKES OF ORDINARY GHOSTSWEEPERS, ALTHOUGH THEIR SPIRITUAL POWER CULTIVATION IS VERY HIGH AND THEIR COMBAT POWER IS VERY STRONG, BUT THERE ARE STILL NATURAL SHORTCOMINGS IN TERMS OF INHERITANCE AND SECRET METHODS, ESPECIALLY THE SINGLE MEANS OF COMBAT, WHICH ARE EASY TO BE TARGETED, AND THE ABILITY TO ADAPT ON THE SPOT IS ALSO MUCH WORSE. From this point of view, Sima Qiudao, who can make his own talismans and master N many secret techniques, has really taken a big advantage......

THIS IS ALSO A HELPLESS THING, THE VAST MAJORITY OF GHOSTSWEEPERS ARE SO-CALLED SELF-TAUGHT, OFTEN AFTER SUDDENLY AWAKENING THE SPIRITUAL TALENT, THEY START TO LEARN RELATED KNOWLEDGE, THESE PEOPLE WHO CAN'T ENTER THE SECRET SECT ARE OFTEN UNABLE TO LEARN OR EVEN LEARN THE SECRET TECHNIQUES THAT CIRCULATE. In addition, in the country of Japan, the so-called hermitage sects all have strict entry thresholds and are more accustomed to passing on relatives and not outsiders. For example, the Onmyoji family, etc., are all like this.

At this time, after the battle just now, not only Meishen Reiko saw a little bit of Sima Qiudao's fighting style; Similarly, Sima Qiudao also got a glimpse of Reiko's combat style and strength of the beautiful god.

Basically, Reiko Migami uses the magic stick as a melee weapon, and after activating the magic breaker to weaken or even completely suppress the target (most of them are aimed at youkai and ghosts), she relies on melee mending knives......

In fact, many times Reiko Meishen uses the spirit absorption charm to temporarily imprison the opponent after controlling the opponent, of course, it is to suck one by one, and when she has accumulated enough similar "garbage", she will send it to a place that specializes in dealing with similar harmful spirits to spend money to deal with. It can be seen that the profession of exorcism scavenger pays a lot of money, regardless of the superficial scenery. But in fact, whether it is from the preparation stage, the battle stage, or even the closing stage, or even to deal with the "garbage", it is all about spending money constantly, and this is still a master with a high spiritual power cultivation and a high success rate of entrustment. If you change to a medium-level or even lower-level spiritual power cultivation person, you will not be able to succeed every time you entrust it, then the cost will be high, not to mention that you will not complete the commission and even die on the spot......

In general, most of the fighting styles of human soul killers and exorcists on the mysterious side of Dongying are similar to Reiko the beautiful god. This is also due to the fact that the number of people who can really inherit the secret method of the sect is too small and too xenophobic. Needless to say, there is no secret method inheritance like Reiko Meijin, and it is important to rely on ordinary combat methods to exorcise demons, which cannot be compared with the previous mid-level big monsters such as the Great Tengu, and once they fight, they basically have no advantage at all. After all, the existence of the Demon Clan's Martial Saint is extremely proficient in martial arts, which is the destiny nemesis of such people.

But for the female ninja (Scarlet Rain Rinka) that he met later, the inheritor of the Great Martial Stream Ninjutsu, because of his profound cultivation in martial arts, he can also compete with the big monsters of the Great Tengu and the like. This is the gap between there is a legacy and no inheritance. However, it is not useless to exorcise and eliminate spirits without inheritance, and it is precisely because there is no inheritance that it pays more attention to the training and actual combat of spiritual power (which is also the easiest aspect to start). As the saying goes, "if you don't forget, there will be an echo". As long as you put in the hard work, there will always be a reward. After all, this kind of person accounts for the absolute majority, and there will always be a strong person with real talent who stands out. FOR EXAMPLE, IN TERMS OF SPIRITUAL CULTIVATION AND COMBAT EXPERIENCE, REIKO MEIJIN, THE WELL-KNOWN GHOSTSWEEPER DARLING, HAS AN ADVANTAGE FAR BEYOND HER PEERS.

STRICTLY SPEAKING, ALTHOUGH REIKO MIGAMI IS NOT FROM A SECTARIAN FAMILY, SHE HAS A TEACHER WHO IS KNOWN AS THE STRONGEST GHOSTSWEEPER - FATHER MAHIRO TANGLONG. If you don't have real kung fu, you won't be able to sit on the recognized strongest name for more than ten years. It's a pity that Father Tang Long Zhenhong followed the crucidian exorcism system, with the help of his belief in the only god of the crucifixion, and relied on the words of the Bible to exorcise demons and eliminate spirits. And Reiko herself has no good impression of the Cross Sect at all. Naturally, he couldn't learn Father Tang Long's skills. For this reason, Father Tang Long Zhenhong can only provide guidance in terms of spiritual cultivation, combat experience, and extensive knowledge.

No matter how much Sima Qiudao knew about the beautiful god Reiko, the fighting purpose of avoiding hand-to-hand combat as much as possible had never changed. Therefore, as soon as the two sides distanced themselves, Sima Qiudao didn't dare to delay at all, took out the bottled water directly from his arms, unscrewed the bottle cap and poured it directly on the ground, and then gathered his mana to chant the mantra: "Tenghai condenses the ice blade, the frost beads twist the curtain, and is as urgent as the law, edict, ice gun snake strike!" Combined with the spell containing mana, the clear water on the ground seemed to suddenly come to life, and a pale cyan serpentine body was gradually revealed in it, and in a few moments, the serpentine water column condensed into a thick ice snake that swayed and swayed; Sima Qiudao did not rush to release this ice snake to take the initiative to attack Meishen Reiko, but continued to pour more bottled water, while manipulating the ice snake to surround and protect himself against Meishen Reiko, and at the same time, the spell in his mouth did not stop, chanting several times, summoning a total of seven or eight ice snakes from the clear water before stopping.

These ice snakes circled and twisted to protect Sima Qiudao, and with just one order, they could shoot out in mid-air and take the middle palace to intercept the target.
