Responding to Mirai's actions, Jadoro bent down.
"Look at this," Mirai said excitedly. "Is it really you?!"
Jadoro nodded and smiled without speaking.
A simple answer, but it brought great surprise!
Mirai immediately cheered up, eager to make contact with the freshly born Jadoro. But just then, clang~
It was as if a drop of murky ink fell into a clear pool of water.
The crisp ringing sound suddenly echoed in Mirai's ears!
This wasn't what Mirai had expected.
The vibration in his eardrum confirmed that this was a real, physical sound!
Mirai suddenly felt as if he were facing a formidable enemy!
A terrifying sense of danger surged within him, like being chased by a monstrous beast from ancient times, striking without warning!
Jadoro also reacted instantly, grabbing Mirai's waist and placing him onto the beast's back. Three furry tails wrapped around him, protecting him.
Before Mirai and Jadoro, it appeared.
Light and shadow intermingled, reality and illusion flipped.
Two rows of pitch-black dog-like shadows suddenly appeared!
They howled at the sky, roaring, screeching, declaring their arrival!
At the end of where the black dogs stood, a massive cocoon-like shape, resembling a giant spider's thread, stood majestically in the void.
Its name was—Moxuro, the Eight Bladed Sword, the异环神将 (Exotic Ringed Deity)!
"Hehehe..."
"Are you kidding me?!"
"I didn't even perform the Moxuro taming ritual!!!"
Mirai's voice quivered. He was currently at the weakest point of his life.
His magical power, mental energy, and physical strength were all nearly exhausted.
Unable to summon Lex, his only hope now rested on the freshly born Jadoro.
Though Mirai faintly sensed the powerful energy hidden within Jadoro, he wasn't entirely sure.
Without the support of his master's magic, could Jadoro even defeat or crush Moxuro?
If she couldn't reach that level, it would all be pointless!
"Dammit!"
"This is not scientific!"
"Those damned ancestors can't be trusted! They didn't even record this tiny bit of information—what a bunch of useless fools!"
Mirai cursed the evil ancestors of the Zen family in his mind. Later, when he tried to gather his spirit and forcefully summon Lingzhi, he repeatedly failed!
His headache intensified, and he felt powerless. He had no choice but to pin all his hopes on Jadoro.
In the blink of an eye, Moxuro flashed a set of gleaming white teeth, smiling as it shattered the seal!
"Roar!!!"
Half-naked, muscular, and truly adapted to every situation.
The true Moxuro could banish demons with its right arm and sever evil spirits with its sword.
The strongest of the Ten Shadow Guardians.
Known as the Sighing Wall of Magic, Moxuro grandly made its appearance!
Swish! Swish! Swish!
It was like a typhoon passing through.
Without any flashy moves, Moxuro instantly transformed into a shadow and disappeared from Mirai's view.
"Jadoro!"
"No need for testing!!"
"Just unleash your ultimate attack!!!"
The wind howled behind him, and Mirai's heart nearly leaped out of his throat as he yelled at Jadoro, commanding her in a loud roar!
However—
Boom!!!
Before Jadoro could even gather her attacking power, Moxuro had already moved, launching a massive punch directly at Mirai, who was protected by three furry tails!
That tremendous force, capable of breaking metal and stone, didn't immediately break through Jadoro's defense.
Mirai hadn't had time to rejoice when the residual impact, dampened by the three furry tails, still pierced through his body, making him cough up blood!
"Cough... Cough..."
"Blank!!!"
He was going to be smashed and scolded!
After a brief mental exchange with Jadoro, this moment belonged only to the newly born Jadoro.
If she wanted enough firepower to defeat Moxuro's "Sighing Wall," she had to give up some mobility to accumulate strength.
But a stationary turret couldn't defeat a high-speed tank!
To accumulate strength meant taking hits; taking hits meant not accumulating strength, and without it, victory would be impossible.
Faced with this insurmountable situation, Mirai had no choice but to issue one word to Jadoro from the bottom of his heart—Run!
"Okay??"
"How...?"
"Word Magic!!!"
At that moment, Shaden, who had just arrived, watched with confusion and fear.
Jadoro, carrying Mirai, followed his command. She extended two long tails, wrapping them around like a dumpling, saving Shaden and Xander Thorne.
As for Zen Fan?
What trash was that?
Not familiar, really not familiar = =
Looking back, the familiar and hated ugly face of Zen Fan was nowhere to be seen.
Probably slapped away by Moxuro, who knew where it had been sent flying.
But unlike Mirai's plan, Moxuro didn't even glance at Zen Fan.
It seemed that Moxuro had made up its mind and immediately chased after Mirai.
She ran, it chased, a glance with a roll of its eyes!
Along the way, Jadoro was like a reckless locomotive.
No matter what building stood in her way, she ignored it, unwavering, keeping her path straight.
The shortest distance between two points is a straight line. This is something you'll learn later.
Jadoro's speed was similar to Moxuro's, but her fragile body could no longer withstand such violent impacts.
Looking back at Mirai's pale and youthful face, and the relentless pursuit of Moxuro, Jadoro's mature and cold face flashed with a trace of anger.
But she used her tail as a hand, placing Mirai safely into Shaden's arms.
Then, she exerted all her strength to throw the three of them away, turning to battle Moxuro!
Suddenly, sparks collided with the earth.
The Zen family's land became like a soft field of crops, repeatedly being forcefully kneaded and cultivated by Jadoro and Moxuro!
Boom!!
Boom!!
Looking at the "peaceful" scene from a distance, Shaden twitched his lips and trembled as he spoke:
"Mirai~ How can you start the Moxuro taming ritual in the tribe center without permission? This is nonsense T T"
"That guardian is..."
Mirai scratched his head awkwardly and chuckled, thinking to himself: "Ah, haha~ It's an accident, really, just an accident~"
"But now I'm the head of the family, so let's just splash some water~"
Looking at the young man, who was lavish and unafraid of scalding water, spending his own money without regret, Shaden covered his forehead and choked up.
At the side, Xander Thorne had been paying attention to the intense clash between the two guardians.
He could clearly feel the infinite, strange power contained within both guardians, far beyond his own strength, which hadn't yet reached its peak.
Reluctantly, he clenched his fists, eager to try.
True gold is not afraid of the hottest fire.
If it weren't for protecting Mirai, he would have already rushed in to stop them.
After all...
The fastest way to improve is to fight a strong enemy!
In the fields...
Jadoro, having been with Mirai for a long time and influenced by him, understood just how powerful Moxuro was.
Therefore, before being confident enough to land a fatal blow, she always relied on her own speed and strength to battle Moxuro.
She didn't give him any chance to adapt to the damage caused by her spells.
However...
Although their basic panels were almost the same.
As time passed, the balance of victory gradually tilted towards Moxuro.
Clang!
Having dodged Jadoro's nine long tail strikes, the spell wheel floating behind Moxuro's head spun around.
It slowly adapted to Jadoro's power and speed, reinforcing itself in the process.
Like a snowball rolling down a hill, Jadoro's decline became more and more apparent.
The first confrontation between the two guardians.
Undoubtedly, the final victory would belong to Moxuro.
However...
