The holy light energy, referred to as the Huntress Bullet by the woman, carried an aura of sacred killing, and it shot towards Elina with unwavering determination. Upon seeing this holy light, Elina immediately restrained her disdainful smile and attempted to dodge the attack. However, unexpectedly, the Huntress Bullet seemed to have a compulsory locking function on its target, so Elina, who was targeted by it, felt as if she were bound by heavy shackles and couldn't make any evasive moves for a moment. Faced with the imminent powerful holy light energy, Elina, who had no way to avoid it, could only grit her teeth and quickly summon an energy shield shrouded in magic to forcefully resist the Huntress Bullet.
"Boom!"
As Elina was precisely struck by the Huntress Bullet, there was immediately a muffled sound in the sky, reminiscent of an anvil falling from ten thousand meters high and landing heavily on the deck of an aircraft carrier. At the same time, at the spot where Elina hovered, a dazzling light burst forth, illuminating the entire night sky. Then, a sharp beam of sacred energy shot out from the center of the dazzling light shield, fiercely slamming into a desolate low mountain in the distance. In an instant, half of the mountain's summit was flattened.
The woman exclaimed in dismay upon seeing this! Because she knew that the energy that flew out was the Huntress Bullet she had launched. As expected, the Huntress Bullet launched by the woman and Dao Lao together was far less powerful than when launched solely by her. Moreover, the two of them were barely able to act in their weakened state, and their target was Elina, whose power was still increasing. This meant that although the Huntress Bullet's momentum was still formidable, it was entirely insufficient to cause harm to Elina.
"Hehehe, hehehehaha! What a powerful attack! However, you still can't hurt me at all! I am now invincible! Hahahaha!" Amidst a burst of excited and somewhat crazy laughter, Elina's figure gradually emerged from the fading sacred light.
The woman and Dao Lao could see that the protective shield created by Elina at the critical moment had been shattered by the Huntress Bullet. However, it was precisely because of this shield that Elina was able to successfully neutralize the combined attack of the two. From Elina's heavy breathing, it could be seen that she had certainly exerted extremely strong power in the instant to be able to deploy such a sturdy shield.
However, although Elina had exerted all her strength to block the Huntress Bullet, as a Mold Spirit with a six-star level of misfortune, she still had the ability to continue fighting. On the other hand, Dao Lao and the woman, after exerting all their strength to launch the Huntress Bullet, immediately entered a state of extreme weakness due to their spiritual power dropping below the critical value. Therefore, the woman, who was now powerless to continue fighting, had no choice but to immediately fly away with Dao Lao from Elina. Because Elina was now slowly raising her arm again, preparing to launch a new round of attacks against them. And Dao Lao knew very well that they were now absolutely unable to effectively respond to any attack launched by Elina.
The energy of the Hunt Bullet, as the woman called it, carried a holy and murderous aura, relentlessly aiming at Elina. Seeing this holy light, Elina quickly suppressed her disdainful smile, attempting to dodge the attack. Unexpectedly, the Hunt Bullet seemed to have a compulsory lock on its target, rendering Elina almost immobilized under its gaze. Faced with the approaching powerful holy energy, Elina, though shocked, could only grit her teeth and quickly summon a magic shield to resist the Hunt Bullet.
"Boom!"
As the Hunt Bullet precisely hit Elina, a deep, thunderous sound reverberated through the sky, akin to an anvil crashing onto an aircraft carrier's deck from thousands of meters above. Simultaneously, a dazzling light burst forth from Elina's hovering position, illuminating the entire night sky. Then, a fierce beam of holy energy shot out from the center of the radiant light, fiercely crashing onto a desolate hill in the distance, instantly flattening most of its peak.

The woman exclaimed, "Oh no!" realizing that the energy she unleashed was the Hunt Bullet. Indeed, the Hunt Bullet launched by her and Dao Lao lacked the power compared to the one she initiated alone. Furthermore, they were in a weakened state when they launched the attack, while Elina's power was still increasing. This meant that their Hunt Bullet, despite its grandeur, was insufficient to harm Elina.
"Hehehe, what a strong attack! But you still can't harm me! I'm invincible now! Hahaha!" Amidst a frenzy of laughter, Elina gradually emerged from the diminishing holy light.
The woman and Dao Lao could see that the shield Elina created to withstand their combined attack was shattered by the Hunt Bullet. However, it was this shield that allowed Elina to successfully withstand their assault. From Elina's heavy breathing, it was evident that she had exerted an immense amount of power to conjure such a sturdy shield.
However, despite Elina's effort to resist the Hunt Bullet, being a six-star-level unfortunate, she still had the ability to continue fighting. On the other hand, Dao Lao and the woman, having exhausted themselves to launch the Hunt Bullet, immediately fell into a state of extreme weakness as their mental strength plummeted below the critical threshold. Thus, the woman, unable to continue fighting, had no choice but to immediately take Dao Lao and flee from Elina. Elina was preparing for a new round of attack against them, and Dao Lao knew they were no longer capable of effectively countering any of Elina's assaults.
Similarly, if the mold energy in the surrounding magic qi is excluded and not allowed to merge with these magic qis, wouldn't these magic qis still belong to the power of the Divine Spirit Realm, available for use by the priests of the Divine Spirit Realm? And can't they be transformed into underworld power by me, Haoyun? If so, then why not try to gather enough energy from these magic qis for the Speed and Passion Blade?
At this moment, Haoyun suddenly remembered that after obtaining the Speed and Passion Blade, Master Gu had advised him to practice underworld power more. Because this dagger was very special, it could be controlled either solely with mental power or simultaneously with mental power and underworld power, or even solely with underworld power.
So now, even though my mental power is almost depleted, can't I still launch an attack on Elina solely using underworld power with the Speed and Passion Blade!? With this thought, Haoyun's spirits immediately lifted.
Since Haoyun's Speed and Passion Blade came from the Shadow Spirit Realm and he was the Envoy of the Shadow Spirit Realm, then aren't the black qi flying towards the sky from beside him the effective energy source that can drive the Speed and Passion Blade for him, the Envoy of the Shadow Spirit Realm? Moreover, since these magic qis can give Elina such powerful negative power, doesn't it mean that these magic qis can also provide enough powerful positive power for the Speed and Passion Blade? Thinking of this, Haoyun's heartbeat immediately accelerated because he seemed to see an opportunity to strike Elina!
Therefore, Haoyun immediately made a very bold move. First, he commanded the system to release some of the mold energy trapped in the mold energy storage device to make space for the storage device. Then, he gritted his teeth and once again used his remaining less than ten percent of mental power to activate the mold energy collector and capture the mold energy from the rising magic qi.
However, unlike before, this time Haoyun did not allow the remaining magic qi to dissipate freely after losing the cohesion of the mold energy. Instead, while capturing the mold energy, Haoyun made every effort to resonate with the Speed and Passion Blade held tightly in his hand, using his faint underworld power to control it to collect the magic qi that had separated from the mold energy and convert all these magic qis into the power to control it.
As Haoyun had gained further recognition from the Speed and Passion Blade in the previous battles and had thus mastered the ability to transform the Speed and Passion Blade from its initial form into the combat-ready form of dual daggers, he naturally had a deeper understanding of his dagger. Therefore, regarding the resonance with the Speed and Passion Blade, Haoyun couldn't say it was effortless, but at least it was familiar territory, something he could quickly handle.
And as Haoyun expected, the Speed and Passion Blade released a special underworld energy, drawing in all the magic qi that had been unbound from the mold energy along the hollow pattern running through the dagger, converting all of these magic qis into underworld power in the meantime.
Although the underworld power converted from these magic qis was far less than Haoyun had imagined, it was better than nothing. Moreover, what was more crucial was that this method was feasible, giving Haoyun hope of assisting Dao Lao and the others in turning the tide of the battle. Considering Elina's current state was not ideal, Haoyun also had reason to believe that he didn't need too much underworld power for the Speed and Passion Blade, as it was enough to further harm Elina!
