I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch-Chapter 179 - 161. Elf Holy Bow (4k)_2
"Boom!!" Just then, an explosion and a blinding white light emanated from the distant forest.
Cha Naixue glanced with the corner of her eye, her brows slightly furrowed. She knew that both Xia Feng and Mu Qingtong were Second Order, but Mu Qingtong’s rank had been forcefully elevated with the resources of the Peach Organization, according to her. Xia Feng, on the other hand, wasn’t a problem—he was a genius, and handling a Third Rank should be a piece of cake.
But dealing with two of them would probably be tough.
"Do you see?" he remarked, his eyes intensely fixed on Cha Naixue, "The difference between Xia Feng and me is clear."
Yeli Xing said, "To be honest, Holy Daughter, I don’t understand why you care so much about someone like Xia Feng, a lowly commoner by birth? Even if he is talented, he is still only—"
"None of your damn business."
Before he could finish, Cha Naixue cut him off. Yeli Xing’s face changed slightly—he felt the Holy Daughter had changed. The Holy Daughter of the past wasn’t like this. Although rigid and stern, she at least, at the very least, had a somewhat gentle tone.
But now, she was irritable and indifferent, completely unresponsive to his sincere advice. She must have been bewitched by Xia Feng.
"In that case, Holy Daughter—" His lips curled into a smile as he drew his longbow again, "I’ll make you understand that the one your heart truly likes, the one with whom you wish to unite, is actually me!"
The arrow, black as ink with a glowing pink tip, condensed, and at the same time, an elf maiden in an emerald green dress appeared behind him, placing her slender hand atop his head. Instantly, he felt the Elf Holy Bow become empowered. The bowstring released abruptly—swoosh—
The arrow pierced through the air, striking Cha Naixue’s defensive shield in a flash, two Stop-the-Fight arrows inching into the light barrier, turning her complexion slightly pale.
"Crackling—"
The protective film of light shattered with a bang, and the blast wave of lightning and thunder rippled through the air above the forest, two pink-tipped arrows unimpeded, shooting straight for Cha Naixue’s brow. Yet inexplicably, they stopped less than half an inch away—
"Nai Luo." With the low voice of the snow-dressed woman, the black-trailing arrow halted before her brow, her violet pupils quietly shifting into endless spirals. Her beret flew into the air, her soft hair whipped wildly behind her in the raging wind.
The forming smile on Yeli Xing’s face stiffened, his gaze locking onto the distant woman, "Divine protection... This isn’t the Black Moon Goddess’s divinity. You’ve actually worshipped another deity?!"
He knew very well that the Black Moon Goddess had been tainted and was struggling to protect herself, rendering the divine protection bestowed on the four Holy Daughters extremely weak, effectively non-existent.
To prevent the Holy Daughters from being subjected to spirit manipulation, the Church Court generally instructed them to self-learn defensive Spiritual Clothes. But the safest measure remained to have a Guardian Knight stick close by the Holy Daughters’ side, learning a Spiritual Clothes that consumed their own lifespan to shield the Holy Daughters from spirit manipulation—it was a very powerful effect.
But this time Cha Naixue had not asked Silver and Panda to accompany her to the Garden.
Yeli Xing originally thought Cha Naixue trusted him, a Golden Knight, and that was why she did not bring her Guardian Knights... but now it seemed not to be the case. She had worshipped another deity early on, unafraid of spirit manipulation even without Guardian Knights by her side.
That being said, it didn’t matter. If Spiritual Clothes of the spirit type won’t work, then use those affecting the physical body’s hormones. Yeli Xing’s eyes sparkled with excitement as he drew his bow to its full extent once again.
A pink arrow with a twinkling heart-shaped tip gathered on the Holy Bow. This was a C-grade Spiritual Clothes named Desire Arrow. Those hit by it would experience rapid hormone secretion affecting the brain, leading to increasingly intense mating desires over time.
To match the Elf Holy Bow, the Spiritual Clothes he learned were mostly related to arrows, though the Desire Arrow wasn’t commonly used due to its high difficulty—the construction of a stable Spiritual Particle structure was time-consuming.
"Master, do you need help?" the hovering elf maiden behind him asked with gentle eyes.
The elf maiden was the incarnation of Artifact Disaster for the Elf Holy Bow—a tall figure with a wide chest and full hips, dressed in an emerald green gown, looking like a mature beauty with a family, very much to Yeli Xing’s taste.

Yeli Xing was quite satisfied with this Artifact Disaster form. According to Panda, a humanoid Artifact Disaster was very rare, akin to the Spiritual Artifact possessing a soul that could exist independently from the artifact itself.
"Empower."
Upon hearing the instruction, the elf maiden once again lightly pressed her delicate hand to the top of Yeli Xing’s head. The heart-shaped pink glow of the arrow on the Elf Holy Bow instantly stabilized. The fully drawn bowstring released—swoosh—
The arrow, embodying love, swiftly approached Cha Naixue’s eyes, her brows knitting tightly as a golden light suddenly flickered on her forehead.
Swoosh, swoosh—just at that moment, a dark black cannon of light shot out from the depths of the forest, instantly swallowing the Desire Arrow that had been barreling forward with unstoppable momentum.
Taken aback, Cha Naixue turned to look. A man in white and a woman in black had appeared on two treetops behind them at some point.
"Tsk tsk, Cha Naixue, this is quite the predicament you’re in," Xia Feng shook his head in disdain.
"..."
"You guys beat those two from the Burning Heaven Temple?" Cha Naixue asked, puzzled.
"Pfft, if we hadn’t won, how could we have come to rescue you, little Karami?" Xia Feng remarked casually, glancing up at the distant figure of Yeli Xing and the tall female elf behind him.
Is this also an Artifact Disaster form? Xia Feng wondered in surprise, still in human shape?
"You guys..." Yeli Xing was a bit confused by the sudden appearance of the two, what was going on? Were those two Burning Heaven guys that useless?
Taken down by two First Order Spirit Masters?
"No, something seems off. Judging from the glimpse of Xia Feng’s spiritual pressure state, it’s clearly not as simple as First Order," Yeli Xing thought, a slight shock running through him. He had a persistent feeling that something was amiss.
But, thinking about it differently, even if the two of them had astonishingly taken down two Third Rank Spirit Masters, they would have consumed a significant amount of spiritual pressure. Even if they’d come to help, they wouldn’t be of much use.
Having thought this through, Yeli Xing couldn’t help but smile wryly. He, a Fourth-order Spirit Master, really didn’t believe he would be defeated by the three people with Cha Naixue.
Once more, he drew his bowstring, and a radiant golden arrow quickly gathered on the bow, unleashing the mighty spiritual pressure of a Fourth Rank. The entire sky erupted into a gale, with thunder dragons faintly emerging from the clouds.
"Boom—"
In mid-air, the clashing Desire Arrow and Suzheng Cannon were locked in a standstill for a full three seconds before they both vanished. Xia Feng wasted no words and transformed into a white shadow, darting straight towards Yeli Xing.
Yeli Xing hadn’t expected this man to daringly charge head-on towards him, and he shook his head in disdain, continuing to draw the bowstring to its limit.
B-rank Spiritual Clothes - Cloud Dragon.
He had been holding back his full strength until now. But since those three people were here, it would save trouble to just clear the field in one go.

[Note: Cannot enhance S-rank spiritual clothes]
Xia Feng was fairly satisfied with this Spiritual Artifact’s ability, directly enhancing spiritual clothes, effectively turning a D-rank into one possessing the power equivalent to C-rank. Not a bad ability for a Spiritual Artifact.
[Anomaly — Each Artifact Disaster Spiritual Artifact is linked to the Origin Sea of the Heavenly Gifted Disaster. Copying such a Spiritual Artifact, if not a Heavenly Gifted Believer, will be consumed by Evil God Level Evil Power!]
[Disconnect copy?]
The same message prompt again, as unknown spacetime surge of Evil Power impact loomed. Xia Feng’s spiritual power, after receiving a slight nourishment boost, saw the door to the unknown spacetime close, halting its attack on him.
Xia Feng was left wanting more, realizing that this Heavenly Gifted Evil God could completely serve as his number three Experience Bag! In the future, if he couldn’t absorb power from Evil Dragon Miss, he’d search for these Spirit Masters with Artifact Disasters...
"Boom—" Like thunder exploding, the golden arrow formed by the B-rank Spiritual Clothes· Cloud Dragon shot from the bow, like a terrifying Thunder Dragon roaring towards Xia Feng.

The Thunder Dragon roared, but Xia Feng did not make the slightest move to dodge. Instead, he suddenly held a verdant longbow in his hand, and the Thunder Dragon’s hammering charge abruptly stalled—
And then, it slowly turned its head...
