Chapter 305 Sending Charcoal in Snowy Weather
Xu Yi punched back the Crow Man and rushed towards the house below.
By now, he had no choice but to try and exploit something in Chris's situation, to see if he could stop the Ring of Destruction.
He burst through the wall of the house, his expression growing increasingly ugly.
Chris's face was gnawed beyond recognition, her body lying on the ground, lifeless.
Although she was dead, the music from the old player did not cease; the Sugar Plum Fairy was still there.
The Sugar Plum Fairy had killed her target, so why was she still here?
Obviously not because she didn't want to leave, but because she couldn't; the Ring of Destruction had somehow trapped her there.
Xu Yi felt a sense of frustration; even if he wasn't a match for the three great pieces of alchemical machinery of the Ring of Destruction, at least he could have fought a glorious battle.
Unlike now, even if he could defeat the Crow Man before him, it wouldn't decide the direction of events.
The key still lay with the Sugar Plum Fairy!
Just then, a swooshing figure approached from afar, and Xu Yi instinctively looked up, exclaiming in surprise, "Carrie!"
Excitement quickly surfaced on his face; Carrie was flying over, which meant she had awakened her abilities!
His attention had been entirely on this side before, and he hadn't noticed Carrie's condition, nor did he understand how she had suddenly awakened.
But in any case, this was a godsend in the nick of time.
"Teacher!" Carrie, upon seeing Xu Yi safe and sound, breathed a sigh of relief.
With her mother's betrayal, Xu Yi was now her sole pillar of support.
Xu Yi suddenly roared, "Blood as Sacred" at full strength. The Crow Man couldn't adapt to Xu Yi's surge in power for a moment and was blasted away, crashing heavily into the ground.
Xu Yi didn't expect to achieve success with one hit; he suddenly changed his form, just to snatch a bit of time.
"These people want to take the Sugar Plum Fairy away, now it's up to you to stop them!" Xu Yi rushed to Carrie's side and quickly briefed her.
He knew it wasn't realistic to ask Carrie to kill the Sugar Plum Fairy; Carrie clearly still had deep feelings for her sister, otherwise, she wouldn't carry the snowman doll her sister had given her.
So he was only asking Carrie to stop the Ring of Destruction.
He could refrain from devouring the Origin of "Envy," but he wouldn't let the Ring of Destruction take the Sugar Plum Fairy away!
Xu Yi quickly took out the Alchemy Revolver and the Sin Remains of "Envy," handing them to Carrie with a reminder, "Conserve the bullets!"
Even if Carrie had awakened her abilities, it was still too much of a stretch for her to contend with the three great ministers of the Ring of Destruction.
Lacking the strength, she had to rely on equipment.
Carrie nodded solemnly and dashed towards Chris.
Although Chris was dead, she was still a nexus, allowing Carrie to enter the Different Space based on the nexus' location.
The Lizard Dragon detected an unfamiliar presence entering the room; its "AI" automatic enemy elimination mode activated. It opened its mouth, and black energy began to converge within.
The energy erupted outwards, a black pillar of light sweeping across like a longsword, seemingly about to bisect Carrie at the waist.
The Ghost Samurai suddenly leaped forward, the back of his blade resting against his left arm, powering both arms simultaneously, using the Demon Blade Red Lotus to block the lethal black pillar of light.
Carrie seized this opportunity, hurriedly rushing to Chris's side and stepping into the Different Space as her figure slowly vanished.
Xu Yi immediately switched his viewpoint to the Nest of the Evil God.@@novelbin@@
Previously, in order to prepare the Awakening Potion, the Nest of the Evil God had remained inside Carrie and had not been taken out.
The good news was that the Different Space did not sever his connection with the Nest of the Evil God, allowing him to clearly see the situation inside.
He suddenly stilled for a moment; in the Sugar Plum Fairy's Different Space, instead of alchemical machinery, he saw three men.
The three men varied in height and build, but shared one feature: they were all elderly, with white hair and brows, a symbol of a gate engraved on their foreheads.
These people were in soul form, clearly behind the control of those pieces of alchemical machinery.
For some reason, Xu Yi felt that these three men looked somewhat familiar, as if he had seen them somewhere before.
Together, the three of them chanted in an unknown language, with powerful waves sweeping across the area following their chant.
One of them merely glanced indifferently at Carrie, and she was frozen in place, unable to move.
Not just Carrie, even the Sugar Plum Fairy could not break free from the chanting voices.
The power that restrained them did not come from the three people before them, but from something far more terrifying; the trio were merely acting as conduits.
Xu Yi had originally pinned his hopes on Carrie, but now, before she could even make a move, she was already "knocked down."
"I have to take the risk!" he took a deep breath.
He prepared to join forces with the Ghost Samurai, launching a surprise attack. Their target wasn't the Crow Man or the Lizard Dragon, but the Copper Clock Bird.
The Copper Clock Bird was too hateful, its power not very strong, yet proficient in assisting, with endless Arrays emerging one after another.
Many times, when he and the Ghost Samurai were about to gain momentum, they were interrupted by the Arrays of the Copper Clock Bird.
The age-old wisdom that the first to kill in a group battle is the support! Indeed, a compelling aphorism.
Moreover, the enemy stubbornly held on to their "Golden Bullet," only occasionally extending the barrel of the gun to intimidate them, which was like a Sword of Damocles hanging over their heads, truly agonizing.

Xu Yi and Xu Changrong communicated through telepathy and approached the Copper Clock Bird inconspicuously. Without needing to exchange glances, they suddenly launched their attack.
The Ghost Samurai turned and delivered a swift One Breath Slash, unleashing a long-gathered power surge, and his fiery sword energy shot straight toward the Copper Clock Bird.
Letting his father control the Ghost Samurai was indeed the right choice, Xu Yi felt immensely fortunate.
His father's swordsmanship and combat awareness were top-notch, only such a person could unleash the true power of the Ghost Samurai.
And his father was also one of the few people Xu Yi would entrust his back to without any hesitation.
At the same moment, Xu Yi exerted his full strength to activate "Blood as Sacred," with platinum energy converging at his fingertips, the scorching Sword of Judgment slashed down.
The Copper Clock Bird had no way to avoid it, but in the next second, the image of the Clock Bird dissipated like a bubble, while the Lizard Dragon took its place, bearing the brunt of the attack instead.
Flame and Holy Flame fell with a thunderous crash, unleashing powerful Energy on the Lizard Dragon, causing its surface body to crack and countless tiny fissures to appear.
Although the Lizard Dragon was gravely injured, there was not a hint of a smile on Xu Yi's face.
If the "combined strike" had landed on the weaker Copper Clock Bird, it might have directly destroyed it.
And because Xu Yi had launched a surprise attack on the Copper Clock Bird, he had exposed a huge vulnerability at his back. Naturally, the Crow Man would not miss such a golden opportunity.
The Scythe of the Reaper surged with a thick blood-red glow, and as the scythe slashed down, Xu Yi had no time to dodge in his haste, and his back was cleaved open in one strike, severing his spine as well.
Xu Yi's face contorted with pain, and what was worse, he found that his Hyper Accelerated Regeneration Ability was inhibited, recovering at an extremely slow pace.
He had anticipated all these before launching the surprise attack.
Yet, after paying a sufficient price, he had not achieved the desired result.
Now seriously injured, the battle ahead would only grow more difficult.
He subconsciously checked the situation of the Eight Monster House; Lisa and the others were still unconscious, and even Harada Mieko, with the addition of the Cat Spirit Holy Tree, was not ready to join a battle of this magnitude.
At that moment, Xu Yi suddenly froze.
The Copper Clock Bird, which had been hovering steadily in the air, began to wobble.
Within the Different Space of the Sugar Plum Fairy.
The chanting grew more urgent; a strong oppressive force bore down on the Sugar Plum Fairy. It couldn't withstand the pressure, its legs slowly bent, and it was on the verge of kneeling before the trio of the Ring of Destruction.
"Sister!" Carrie cried out in anxious anger.
The Energy within her was stirred, and an orange-hued Demon Fire burst forth from her body, actually forcibly dispersing the oppressive chanting.
Just as she was about to move, the oppressive force surged back at her. She could only shakily raise her Alchemical Revolver and aimed at one of the members of the Ring of Destruction.
The people from the Ring of Destruction contemptuously glanced at Carrie.
They recognized the gun in Carrie's hand as the Alchemical Revolver Messiah, but so what? Even Exorcism Bullets were nothing more than a tickle to them.
Carrie had undergone shooting training in the Eight Monster House, and although her marksmanship was average, at such a close distance, and with an immobilized target, she could still ensure accuracy.
The orange flames surged again. Seizing the moment when the suppression had dispersed, she decisively pulled the trigger.
What do you think?
