Chapter 2114 Defend 6
A mix of cosmic energy and the spirit energy of two elemental laws—fire and wind—had created the massive explosion. The blast lasted for about ten seconds, a period that felt like an eternity to those within the formation. As the fiery light and concussive force began to subside, everyone inside the protective barrier held their breath, waiting to see what remained.
The first thing they saw was the corpse of Magus Riven. Despite having been a few hundred meters away from the epicenter, the formation expert had not survived. His charred body lay lifeless, a grim testament to the explosion's ferocity.
Nearby, the aftermath also revealed the remains of the desolate beasts that had fought so fiercely. Yellow tiger furs and bones were scattered across the ground, evidence of their demise. The white tiger, while still mostly intact, showed no signs of life. This formidable ancient desolate beast, which was already heavily wounded by previous assaults, had been unable to withstand the final, devastating blast.
The only one left standing was the King Golden Roc. However, it was in a pitiable state. Multiple parts of its majestic body were heavily charred, with blood gushing from numerous wounds. The once-proud creature staggered, its strength nearly spent. As the last echoes of the explosion faded, the roc finally collapsed to the ground, its life hanging by a thread.Th.ê most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n(.)co/m
Despite the catastrophic blast, the hunchback slave master, Mo Yan, remained standing. His body was hovering mid-air while encased in what appeared to be spectral armor, a shimmering green 4-meter spectral figure, a shield that protected him from the explosion. The formidable nature of this armor suggested it was a tier 7 or even tier 8 spell. Its existence added another layer of complexity to the challenge of defeating the grand magus.
Emery, assessing the situation, knew he needed more information about the spectral armor's capabilities. To probe further, he signaled his companions to continue their long-range attacks.
"Attack!!"
Magus Beatrice unleashed her wind blade spells and Livi the Baphemot multiple dark fireballs hurtled towards their target. However, these attacks had minimal effect on the spectral armor. Magus Tobin's bone spear, a formidable weapon in its own right, was easily dodged by Mo Yan, who moved with surprising agility despite his hunchbacked form.
Emery decided to deploy his hexagonal construct once again. Flying from a blind spot, it shot toward Mo Yan with deadly precision.
"This little toy again!!"
The spectral figure surrounding the grand magus suddenly formed two gigantic arms. One arm blocked the flying metal construct, while the other struck it hard, smashing it to the ground with immense force. Enraged by the little construct, which had been a significant factor in his failures, Mo Yan directed a barrage of powerful blows at it. Each strike shook the ground, and after a series of devastating impacts, the tier 7 metal construct finally broke apart.
VIA's notification confirmed the damage:
[Battle power increases exponentially]
[Soul Force increases exponentially]
The transformation was astounding. Emery's form was now a towering 4-meter-tall figure of interwoven plant and organic matter, radiating immense power.
As Emery took a step forward, the ground beneath him trembled. His eyes glowed with a fierce determination. "Stay inside the formation," he reiterated.
Emery confidently walked toward the formation barrier. All eyes were filled with anticipation.
Even the hunchback grand magic-user was amused. "Haha, you are very interesting... I can't wait to dissect and see your secret!!"
As soon as Emery stepped out of the formation, the grand magus's eyes gleamed with malevolent intent. His formidable spirit offense lashed out at Emery's mind
"Hahaha, no matter how big your muscles are, you cannot resist this!!"
The spirit attack was indeed powerful. Emery's mind was struck hard, and for a second, his steps faltered. But then, his [Emperor Focus] activated, cleansed, and protected his mind from further threats. The mental assault dissipated like a mist in the wind.
"What!!!" The hunchback grand magic-user was shocked, his eyes widening in disbelief. Before he could react further, Emery's massive form was already upon him.
With a roar, Emery threw a powerful punch. His colossal fist collided with the spectral armor.
BAAAMMM!!!!
The impact was thunderous. Within just one strike, the formidable spectral armament cracked and shattered into pieces.
