Chapter 73 of the Jigokuraku manga.
Summary[]
Tao Fa easily takes control over her battle with Gantetsusai and Fuchi. Seeing as they cannot defeat her by normal means, Fuchi suggests that they formulate a strategy to fight against her ability to use Tao. However, Gantetsusai becomes frustrated with the notion of Tao and continues his attack on Tao Fa, who shows him the advantage to using Tao and suggests that he should give up due to his inability. Gantetsusai refuses and comments on how she must be having fun toying with humans for the past 1,000 years. After hearing this statement, Tao Fa loses her smile and expresses her grief on how she and the other Tensens are unable to gain immortal bodies after 1,000 years of training. She then attacks the two with her next Tao attack and disagrees with Gantetsusai's statement. Fuchi picks himself up after becoming thrilled of his experience with Tao up close and imagines the breakthroughs he can make to medical science with this knowledge he has gained. Gantetsusai stands up and becomes excited as well, knowing that he can fight someone like Tao Fa. Tao Fa is astonished by their own ambitions that causes them to continue fighting and senses their Tao surging, commenting on how they have gone insane which they also redirect back at her. Tao Fa sees them running towards her and launches an invisible projectile at Gantetsusai. However, he briefly senses her Tao projectile and dodges, shocking Tao Fa who receives a fatal blow from him.
