The moment the Immortal Fairy gained a physical body, Grey Dou felt as if she was facing a formidable enemy. Her opponent actually had the ability to gain a physical body?!
But that's fine too; there was no sense of achievement in fighting an Immortal who was merely a soul, even if she won.
"Immortal Dao Killing Fist!""Fairy's Fist!"The two figures vanished from their spots simultaneously. Grey Dou's punches were fast, but the Immortal Fairy's were even faster. One punch landed on Grey Dou's abdomen, causing her to spit out a mouthful of immortal blood in pain.
The immortal blood corroded the ground, sizzling and smoking, directly eating through the earth until it was stopped only by the barrier set by the Four Immortals deep underground.
In the blink of an eye, the two exchanged hundreds of blows. Even Qinghe couldn't clearly see their fight, able to track their movements only by the direction of the shattering space. Even so, Qinghe couldn't keep up with the rhythm, always a step behind. If even Qinghe struggled, it went without saying for everyone else.
Grey Dou was continuously forced back, her arms trembling numbly. The Immortal Fairy's strength was astonishing, and Grey Dou was actually slightly at a disadvantage in a pure strength contest! Previously, when the Immortal Fairy fought Grey Dou, she rarely used punches, knowing that as a mere soul, she was inferior to Grey Dou in terms of strength. But now that she had regained her physical body, she no longer had that concern.
"So this is your true strength, Immortal!" Since her debut, Grey Dou had never lost, nor had she ever been at a disadvantage. This was the first time she had encountered an existence that surpassed her in physical strength!
"This is how it should be; only then will I feel a sense of achievement if I win!" Facing the Immortal Fairy who had gained a physical body, Grey Dou was completely fearless. She and the Immortal Fairy were fundamentally the same person; having condensed the Invincible Pill and never suffered a defeat in her life, she had absolute confidence in her own strength!
"Arhat Fruit Fist, Licorice Root Fist, Goji Berry Fist, Angelica Root Fist..." The Immortal Fairy continuously threw punches, each one different from the last, varied and diverse, making them impossible to guard against. The Fairy's Fist technique could manifest as medicine, transforming into myriad herbs with eternal vitality, allowing the area to regain its vigor and contend against the power of annihilation. Similarly, it could also infuse the power of herbs into an opponent's body, interfering with the flow of their meridians.
"Great Five Elements Escape!" This was both an escape technique and a speed technique. Grey Dou moved like a dancing dragon and phoenix, her speed nearly reaching the speed of light, faster even than Meng Junzi, who used a nascent Speed Dao Fruit!
The Immortal Fairy responded to all changes by remaining still. She stood in place, closed her eyes, and used her immortal sense to probe, allowing Grey Dou to circle around her. Grey Dou seized an opening and appeared, unleashing divine light as her killing fist struck towards the Immortal Fairy.
"Here!" The moment Grey Dou made her move, the Immortal Fairy seized the opportunity, striking later but arriving first. Their two fists collided, the aftermath reverberating through the universe, shattering countless stellar phantoms! Even ancient runes appeared, only to quickly vanish. If the Four Ancient Immortals had been present, they would have recognized these ancient symbols as the earliest, most primordial runes that emerged with the birth of the world.
When the power of immortality collided with the power of annihilation, there was actually a tendency for a world to evolve! However, the current world still existed, and the environment and timing were not right; the primordial runes simply weren't suitable to exist there. As the two powers collided, a small world actually came into being, allowing the primordial runes to persist within it! But soon, the small world couldn't withstand the power of annihilation and exploded.
Grey Dou bled continuously. No matter how vigorous her life force was or how powerfully her immortal body could self-heal, she still couldn't compare to the Immortal Fairy, who possessed the Immortal Dao Fruit!
"Explode!"
*Boom—Boom—Boom—* Unlike her previous self-destructions, these continuous self-destructions involved her immortal body and soul fully exploding. The effect was almost identical to those in ancient times! Grey Dou originally intended to withstand the attack, just like before, but in the first wave of explosions, she was shocked to discover that their power was incomparable to anything she had faced before. She absolutely could not withstand them head-on!
"Destroy the concept of 'space'!" As long as the concept of space was destroyed, the distance between them would either become infinitely far or infinitely close; everything would be unknown. Only this way could she block the subsequent explosions.
"'Space' concept, immortal!" The Immortal Fairy directly locked onto the concept of space; Grey Dou's unfailingly effective move was useless in front of the Immortal Dao Fruit! In a hurry, Grey Dou created layers of barriers with the power of annihilation, wrapping herself. But the continuous explosions blasted open layer after layer of barriers!
"Is it over?" As the last layer of barrier disappeared, the sound of explosions also suddenly ceased, leaving a terrifying quiet. Only the dust from the explosions spoke of what had transpired there. Suddenly, the dust churned, and the Immortal Fairy passed through it, flashing in front of Grey Dou.
Time stopped at this moment, and Grey Dou's restless heart also quieted. She felt as if she were looking into a mirror; the self in the mirror was flawless and loved by everyone. The person in the mirror shattered and exploded, and Grey Dou was swallowed by endless explosions...
When Grey Dou woke up again, she found herself falling, with the Demon City below. She instinctively wanted to continue fighting but found that her physical body and soul had both vanished. What sustained her now was merely a sliver of consciousness.
In the end, she had lost. It was a thorough defeat, likely with the same outcome if they were to fight again.
"Immortal, you were right," Grey Dou said, looking thoughtfully at the Immortal Fairy, who was falling with her—or rather, accompanying her on her final journey. "I truly couldn't become you."
The Immortal Fairy looked at her other self with a complex expression. "You misunderstood me," she said. "What I meant was that you can be yourself. I believe Little He meant the same thing."
Hearing the Immortal Fairy's explanation, her expression relaxed. "Is that so?" she murmured. "So that's what you both meant..."
At this point, it no longer mattered.
The two continued to fall through the air, falling into silence. Neither knew what the other was thinking. After a moment of silence, Grey Dou seemed to remember something and asked, "Oh, by the way, I've always called you 'Immortal Fairy,' but do you have a name?"
"My name is Yellow Dou."
"Hahahahaha, what kind of strange name is that?" Although it was inappropriate now, she still burst out laughing, freely mocking the Immortal Fairy's name. If she weren't just a consciousness now, she would have laughed until tears came to her eyes. "Your name doesn't fit at all with the names of Ying Tianxian and the other four," she remarked. "I thought your name would be more imposing." At this moment, she felt she was no longer the Annihilation Immortal, who always showed a cold face, but rather the carefree little girl from before her tribe's destruction, who didn't need to hide any emotions.
"What about me?" she asked. "Do I have a name?"
"Yes," replied the Immortal Fairy. "Your name is Grey Dou. It was given to you by Little Yangzi."
"What a terrible name-giver," Grey Dou muttered.
"Indeed," the Immortal Fairy replied. "Do you have anything else you want to say?"
Grey Dou shook her head with a smile, turning to look at Qinghe, who was rushing towards her. She used her last bit of strength to boast loudly.
"Hey, Little He, you were wrong," she called out. "I have a name. My name is Grey Dou..."
Qinghe urgently reached out to grab Grey Dou, but her figure had already transformed into specks of light, scattering in the air. She caught nothing.
