After Ash and Filly were transford into Starlight Bodies, they imdiately knew they had been tricked by the Magic Master of Dazzling Star. Their Technique Spirit Transformation was interrupted, and Filly had to hold the Holy Grail with both hands, which ant Ash had to fend off all the invading mages alone.
And he couldn’t call for help; he couldn’t speak, and others couldn’t recognize his original appearance. Even if Igula saw him in this starlight form, she would decisively smash his head!
But Ash understood very well that this was their best chance to condense the Holy Grail. After all, the first Holy Grail site was bound to attract the most mages, and those few who didn’t enter the site likely had the self-awareness to just be bystanders interested in witnessing the event.
As the second Holy Grail site, there weren’t many mages who noticed them, most of whom were rely uninvolved bystanders. It was the perfect blend of ti, place, and people!
Although he didn’t know who ford the first Holy Grail, Ash was sincerely grateful for their pioneering effort, not only informing Ash of the risks but also drawing the most fire away!
Good people, just a bit crazy to be the first ones to try!
Ash looked at the mages erging from the red door and decisively picked up Filly, darting into the mall. This scene seed like the Blood Moon City market, full of alleys and buildings, and naturally, Ash chose the complex terrain to delay pursuit.

anwhile, Vosloda also passed through the red door, looking up to see the shadows of the Rainbow Holy Grail rushing into the first floor of the mall.
To make it easier for mages to chase the Holy Grail holders, the glow of the Rainbow Holy Grail would directly penetrate buildings... Vosloda raised an eyebrow, jumping from rooftop to rooftop, leaping several stories to reach the mall roof, kicking through a skylight to jump in, grabbing a hanging chandelier to swing to the eighth-floor edge.
He watched the two Starlight Bodies pass through the mall’s first-floor center, then swung his sword behind fiercely, with the Sword Qi Wave from his slash cutting down the giant chandelier behind them and crashing directly in front of the Starlight Bodies.
Bang!
The two Starlight Bodies evaded to the sides, dodging the shattering chandelier, and hurriedly scrambled into the mall’s interior on the first floor. Vosloda jumped down from floor to floor, killing a sneaky mage with a swift sword slash once on the ground, instantly becoming at the forefront of the pursuit.

Ash put Filly down, blinking to convey a ssage: "Stay close to , don’t be afraid; I’ll protect you."
Filly blinked: "Okay, I’m not afraid!"
With a loud boom, the mall’s iron grating was smashed by the pursuers. Ash imdiately led Filly through the aisles, casually knocking rchandise off the shelves, scattering them all over the floor to cause so trouble for the pursuers.
As more pursuers rushed into the mall, Ash quickly pushed over a shelf as they were about to run out. The shelves toppled like dominoes, layer by layer. Although it couldn’t kill any mage, it could slow them down.
But then, several sword cries sounded, and the shelves were split in two, cold gleams stabbing at Ash and Filly from the cracks!
Clang clang!
Ash blocked the flying swords, pulling Filly into the corner, rushing up the escalator to the second-floor clothing store. The store had even more shelves and narrower moving space, ideal for creating chaos. Ash was sure the mages themselves had ulterior motives, and by creating the right opportunity, infighting among the greedy ones was almost inevitable!
Because he had to protect Filly, Ash dared not and didn’t need to fight with so many people, but sotis, killing didn’t require doing it yourself. After adventuring with Igula for so long, Ash’s emotional intelligence didn’t increase a bit, but his cunning tactics certainly didn’t decrease.
"You’re courting death!"
"Anyone within three ters of , don’t bla the spear for being heartless!"
"Kill him quickly, that guy specifically targets mages for sneak attacks!"
Sure enough, as the mages rushed into the clothing store, sneak attacks and sches quickly led to chaos. Though many still pursued, Ash easily protected himself and Filly, leisurely buying ti—
Clang!
Sword blades suddenly rose from the floor, almost stabbing the soles of Ash’s feet. He looked down to see a sword blade constantly striking from below, forcing Ash to carry Filly again, dancing to avoid the upward stabs.
It was that Sword Master from before!
Clearly separated by the ceiling, but to the Sword Master, it was as if only a layer of paper stood between them. The blade below attacked faster and faster, forcing Ash to jump continuously, barely reaching the third-floor escalator.
As the sound of the ceiling collapsing ca from behind, Ash knew the Sword Master had reached the second floor!
Ash’s face turned extrely grim; he himself couldn’t strike at such high speed through walls. Only with extraordinary control over sword power could one achieve such an indomitable level... This Sword Master likely possessed a Legendary swordsmanship realm!
A Legendary Sword Master who would appear here and now, there was only one choice!

Vosloda glanced at the mages in the jewelry store already caught in a vortex of slaughter, quickly stepping onto the escalator to the third floor.
The two Starlight Bodies were probably the Demon and a mage following the Demon. But in such a dire pursuit environnt, they still managed to incite internal strife among the mages using psychological manipulation, not to be underestimated.
On reaching the third floor, Vosloda cut the escalator directly, seeing the Starlight Bodies run into a closed escape room store, and imdiately went over to smash the glass door with a kick, putting away his long sword into the Eight Sword Box, switching to a Whip Sword!
Crack!
As Vosloda swung it, the Whip Sword suddenly extended to two ters, like a storm, reducing the store’s shelves to rubble within seconds. He looked at the three sealed rooms, exhaled slowly, and swung the Whip Sword fiercely!
The Whip Sword pierced through the walls, slicing through the three rooms; the gaps left by the sword blade allowed Vosloda to see clearly that they were all empty inside!
Boom!
The shop’s ceiling suddenly collapsed, Vosloda’s expression remained indifferent as he drew a scimitar with his left hand, slashing the ceiling above into powder. At this mont, he saw a Starlight Body jump down, throwing a bag at him!
Without hesitation, Vosloda slashed at it, but the bag burst into li powder, imdiately stinging his eyes with a burning sensation, destroying his vision!
Even facing successive attacks, Vosloda remained calm, rushing towards the Starlight Body’s position without a second thought. At this mont, a piercing explosion rang through his eardrums, causing severe dizziness and nausea to strike his pituitary gland!
The sound alone couldn’t cause such severe impact... it was aided by the Spirit Faction! And predominantly spiritual, with Sound Technique as an assistant!
Vosloda finally realized what kind of enemy he was dealing with—a Spirit Mage skilled in Sound Techniques!

Ash held Filly as he ran to the third floor, scanning around and seeing a closed escape room store. Without hesitation, he rushed over, planning to delay within, and once the pursuers sward in, he would jump from the third floor to change maps!
However, just as he dashed into the store behind him ca the sound of glass being sliced open—the supposed Legendary Sword Master had followed!
Ash rushed into a room, swiftly dropping Filly to the ground. Just as he closed the door, a piercing chill crawled up his spine. Without thinking, he drew his sword, thrusting at the Sword Master outside!
Simultaneously, outside the door, Sonia also thrust her sword at the inside Starlight Body!
