Chapter 179 Countdown: 3 Seconds
"This evil spirit has probably absorbed the curse magic of the demon Onijuro."
"Nine-Tailed Fox, do you still have that hairpin?"
The nine-tailed fox demon's face darkened, and she shook her head, replying, "It was originally there, but I gave it to a little girl for self-defense before that."
Jing Tianjinglong frowned: "This is troublesome."
"If you can't break through the demon's defenses, you can't harm its true form."
Iida Iryu's words instantly made the atmosphere heavy.
The hairpin that the nine-tailed fox demon wore was a gift from him; it contained powerful energy to ward off evil spirits and was originally the key to subduing evil ghosts.
However, now that the hairpin is no longer in her possession, and the demon has absorbed the curse of the demon lord Onijuro, her defensive power has greatly increased, making the situation extremely difficult.
"Isn't there any other way?" Jing Tianjinglong frowned, thinking anxiously.
The nine-tailed fox demon pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "Perhaps... there is another way."
"What method?" Jing Tianjinglong quickly asked.
The nine-tailed fox demon raised her head, her gaze resolute: "My inner core. Although losing it will severely damage my vitality, its power is enough to break through the defenses of evil spirits."
Upon hearing this, Jing Tianjinglong's expression changed: "No! Your inner core is your foundation. Once you lose it, you may be reduced to your original form, or even have your soul scattered!"
The nine-tailed fox demon gave a bitter smile: "But do we have any other choice but this method? If we let the evil spirits continue to run rampant, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Jing Tianjinglong remained silent.
He knew full well that the nine-tailed fox demon's words were true; the evil spirit's power had exceeded their expectations, and if they didn't deal with it quickly, the consequences would be unimaginable.
However, he simply could not accept watching the nine-tailed fox demon sacrifice herself.
Although the growth of those born of light is rapid, it is still limited.
The demon lord Kijuro's curses are exceptionally powerful...
"There must be another way..."
Anyway, he's just a spirit...
If you can find a weakness, you can still severely damage your opponent if you fight with all your might.
Just as they were pondering, a huge explosion rang out.
After a brief moment of charging, Naga unleashed a barrage of fireballs.
The Naga's barrage of fireballs rained down like a meteor shower, the blazing fireballs tracing dazzling paths through the air as they hurtled towards the demon.
The demon was clearly caught off guard by the Naga's sudden and fierce attack, and could only raise its arms in a hasty attempt to defend itself.
"Boom—! Boom—! Boom—!"
Fireballs struck the demons one after another, creating a deafening roar.
The blazing flames instantly engulfed the evil spirit, and the surrounding air was distorted by the intense heat.
However, as the flames gradually dissipated, the demon's figure remained standing, though the dark aura emanating from it had slightly diminished.
"As expected... its defense is too strong; even a barrage of fireballs couldn't completely break through it," Naga said in a low voice, a hint of surprise in his tone.
The demon rubbed its sharp claws and spoke in a human voice: "Hehehe, you dare to provoke me with such damage? Become my nourishment."
With a wave of his hand, a massive swarm of insects rushed towards Ultraman Naga.
Naga hurriedly raised his shield to defend, but still missed quite a few, resulting in him being bitten a few times by the insects. Although he was overwhelmed by the surging energy, a little bit of his power was still absorbed.
Lin Yeming glanced at the timer; there were still thirty seconds left to complete the task.
