Chapter 247 - Ghost Qi Hand Projection

As the Water Qi breath attack headed straight towards the Blinded Ghost's shell, it couldn't evade, having no other choice but to unleash a Ghost Qi Palm Projection. The Palm Projection blasted through the breath attack, losing most of its power as it headed towards the Yali.

The Yali barely managed to dodge it as it began to gather strength for another breath attack. To prevent it from attacking, the Blinded Ghost flickered above it, about to attack its head when Re'Kha arrived at the scene, throwing one end of Harpen Waves towards the Blinded Ghost's shell.

Left with no other choice, it had to reappear above its shell and swat the end of Harpen Waves, grunting as just a simple contact caused it to lose Ghost Qi. Unlike the other Magic Artifacts, Harpen Waves was one of the best in the Burkurel Re Clan. So, the sheer density of Water Qi it could emit every movement was the highest, equivalent to three units of Water Qi.

It was like every swing of it held as much power as three Palm Projections. So, it was hard to defend against.

Re'Kha pulled the chain of Harpen Waves, rotated once and sent the bladed end flying towards the Blinded Ghost again. She did maintain her distance while attacking, intending to just keep whittling it down. 

After all, time was on her side. And, the longer it fought, the weaker the Blinded Ghost got. So, Re'Kha didn't wish to collide head-on and lose her life in the process.

Her attack distracted the Blinded Ghost enough and bought time for the Yali to finish condensing another sphere of Water Qi in its mouth. Aiming at the Blinded Ghost's shell once again, it shot forth the breath attack.

With four foundations, it was able to shoot forth ten breath attacks in total, which was precisely its plan. Moreover, in the present environment, it too was able to recover the expended Elemental Qi in the form of Water Qi.

So, the Yali too planned to just spam breath attacks. After all, they had the initiative while the Blinded Ghost was caught in a passive situation. And, upon seeing the breath attack, the Blinded Ghost actually evaded it. It seemed to have taken something from the wreckage of the carriage, going to the extent of suffering damage to its shell to do so.

The Yali was surprised for a moment, for the damage to the shell was rather significant. The edges of the Tikka jewellery—the Blinded Ghost's shell—had even begun to melt due to the Water Qi eating up the Ghost Qi within.

And, it seemed strange that the Blinded Ghost actually evaded an attack and allowed its shell to be damaged further. And, right at this time, followed by a roar, the Punou summoned by Re'Shi arrived at the scene, condensing a Water Qi sphere in its mouth before shooting it towards the Blinded Ghost's shell.

The Yali did frown for a moment on seeing such a massive Punou. But upon noticing that it too was attacking the Blinded Ghost, it didn't interfere, beginning to charge up another breath attack.

And like before, the Blinded Ghost didn't defend its shell, rather appearing behind the Punou as it slammed using its hands, sending the Punou crashing into the ground. It then flickered behind the Yali, punching it nonstop to disrupt its actions.

And right at this time, Re'Kha held the centre of the Harpen Waves' chain, sending both the blade edges flying towards the Blinded Ghost's back, piercing through it. The Water Qi it emitted caused the Blinded Ghost to scream as it disappeared from the place, appearing behind Re'Kha as it wished to kill her first.

But, the moment it tried to attack her, Re'Kha unleashed her Balou, using it to defend herself. She used it as a shield, swerving from one side to another as all of the Blinded Ghost's attacks only hit it.

In the meantime, the Punou gathered its bearings and unleashed a breath attack onto the Blinded Ghost's shell, hitting it with a massive impact, forming a large crater in the ground. The remnants of Water Qi continued to damage the Tikka jewellery that now sported numerous cracks. Tiny pieces of the gem on it had fallen off, crumbling into dust.

Re'Kha scurried off the moment her Balou got killed. She couldn't use her Pranic Arts against the Blinded Ghost; for, using her eyes as a medium, it would be able to take control of them. So, the Harpen Waves was her best bet at the scene.

As the Punou was attacking the Blinded Ghost's shell, the Yali pounced on it, slashing with its claws that radiated with Water Qi. The Blinded Ghost evaded it and sent its fist flying into the Yali's face, knocking a couple of its teeth out. The impact toppled it, causing it to crash with force.

Without relenting from the attack, it continued to rain down punches, condensing most of its Ghost Qi to the pair of eyes on its front—those that belonged to Re'Kha. It seemed to be charging up for a big attack, as Re'Kha realised that it had eight eyes now.

'Did it get an eye from the carriage?' She thought, understanding that there might have been an undamaged eye in the wreckage that the Blinded Ghost had taken.

The Yali opened its mouth to unleash a breath attack and send the Blinded Ghost flying. And right at this time, the Punou unleashed another breath attack, causing the Blinded Ghost's shell to crack before shattering into pieces, causing some Ghost Qi within it to waft out.

It was finally destroyed.

But, the expected situation didn't happen as the Blinded Ghost hadn't dissipated. Rather, the two pairs of eyes on its front shone with a swirling mass of Ghost Qi, signalling that the Blinded Ghost, albeit after suffering from some disadvantages, had managed to turn her eyes into its shell.

And, the moment it did this, Re'Kha could feel the connection between them intensify as something within her was sucked out. The Blinded Ghost let out parlous laughter, the voice of which was similar to Re'Kha before expending the other six eyes on its body, condensing a massive hand before it.
