Chapter 1027.2: The Sealed Cave
Back then, Su Xiao wasn't strong enough to kill Mei Terumi, but now everything has changed.
*Tum-tum-tum...*
There was the sound of muffled footsteps, and Mei Terumi, still sitting on the ground, looked towards the cave entrance.
— Do you want me to give you a kiss that will melt your bones and your heart? Mei Terumi asked, her emerald green eyes staring straight ahead.
— Cave… A wise choice, " came a voice from a figure wearing an Akatsuki cloak and carrying a long sword.
At the entrance, two creatures remained standing, which were difficult to see because of the blizzard..
Su Xiao entered the cave. Right now, only one of them will be able to leave this cave alive.
This case had nothing to do with the mission. This was only the result of a personal grudge.
Su Xiao looked around the cave. Right now, it was just him and Mei Terumi. Her bodyguard, Choujuro, is missing, as is the contractor who saved her.
— Don't you want to send your dog and that bull to attack? Mei Terumi asked and smiled.
— … — Su Xiao swung the Dragon Flash and cut down most of the Zetsu spores from his body.
It wasn't like he trusted Zetsu very much, and there was no way he would let his arguments get a firm hold on his body, much less for the duration of a battle.
— What a cold guy, " Mei Terumi said, and started folding her hand seals.
*Boom!*
A massive explosion swept through the cave.
— Releasing Water: Water Dragon Projectile Technique, " Mei Terumi finished folding the hand seals in almost an instant, and a huge amount of water immediately appeared in front of her, and all of it immediately gathered into a water dragon, which immediately rushed forward.
*A clang*
Three cold bright blue flashes immediately flew towards the water dragon.
Along with a loud rumble, the water dragon was chopped into several pieces.
— Lava Release: The Mysterious Melting Technique — " a stream of lava shot out from Mei Terumi's mouth.
It was orange-red and flowed in one continuous stream and had almost no flaws.
Immediately after using this large-scale ninjutsu, Mei Terumi's seals changed.
— Boiling Element: Artful Mist Technique — " a jet of white mist shot out from Mei Terumi's mouth.
She chose the cave precisely because of the fact that in it she could bring the temperature to much higher values than in a snow field.
Smoke slowly began to envelop the cave, and large chunks of lava began to spread across the walls and floor of the cave...
*Whew~*
Gray steam began to rise into the ceiling, and Su Xiao, who was rushing forward at a high speed, abruptly jumped to the side and a shield appeared in front of him, which helped him block part of the steam flow.
But hot steam began to envelop the entire cave, and clouds of dangerous steam began to flow to it from all sides.
Su Xiao subconsciously took a step back, but three steps later, he slammed into the wall.
The cave was noticeably reduced in size due to the solidified lava, and he didn't have time to destroy all those extra walls.
If he couldn't kill her in a short amount of time, then this fight would eventually be lost.
The most frustrating part about his opponent was that it formed hand seals in almost an instant.
*Whew~*
The hot steam enveloped the barrier around Su Xiao, and he slowly began to melt before his eyes.
The power of this steam should not be underestimated. This steam was a combination of chakra, fire, and water, and the more enclosed the room, the more powerful and merciless the steam was.
In addition, it should not be forgotten that this steam had three different zones of influence. Within five meters of Mei Terumi, it had the peak of its power, from five to ten meters it could still cause inconvenience and could easily melt even Susanoo, and from ten to fifty meters it could easily injure an inexperienced shinobi.
But now they were in a closed room, and quite small, besides, the steam constantly received amplifications and did not go anywhere, which is why its concentration constantly increased..
If he could break through Su Xiao's barrier, then in just a few seconds, his skin would start to melt.
And to kill Mei Terumi, Su Xiao needed to approach her, which would mean entering the most dangerous area.
After the battle with Kito, he only had 1,820 Mana points left. Now the most powerful barrier could be created for 600 mana points.
In other words, Su Xiao could create one best barrier, and the rest of his mana would be spent on Qing Gang Yin's energy.
Given the strength of the most powerful shield, Su Xiao would probably be able to stay close to Mei Terumi for 10 to 12 seconds. After this time the steam will start to affect his body and he will eventually start to lose strength quickly.
The steam wasn't working as hard on him right now, but if he didn't do something about it, he would end up losing.
Mei Terumi was good at mid-range attacks, so he shouldn't have kept that distance from Mei Terumi.
Only by getting close would he be able to kill her quickly.
In other words, once Su Xiao and Mei Terumi get close, the entire battle will only last for 10-12 seconds at most. At the end of this period, either Su Xiao or Mei Terumi will die..
*Boom!*
A powerful impact rang out from the cave entrance.
Amu began punching a hole in the cave.
— Releasing Lava: Mysterious Melting Technique, " Mei Terumi quickly folded her hand seals again and attacked Su Xiao with a large amount of lava.
A sharp flash of light knocked away some of the lava that was flying at Su Xiao, but only most of the lava was flying into the passage.
This lava immediately began to solidify rapidly, making the wall in the passage even thicker.
