Chapter 388: The Talent Of Lady Winter Lotus
-----
In all their years as sect elders they never had seen such a Sect Master before, someone so devoted to their people they were willing to give out their lives to protect them, to protect the future generations, and to save their legacy from the enemies that were coming, this darkness that devoured it all and was merciless and monstrous.
"Sect Master, we'll follow you to our deaths!"
"We'll do it! for our children…"
"We had lived long lives, we cannot move forward as fast as the newest generations… We might as well go gloriously before we become too weak to do it."
"No matter where you are, we'll come with you, my lady…"
"We are all here for you too!"
The Lady Winter Lotus was moved to tears, as the devotion of her eldest elders made her feel utterly heartbroken.
"E-Everyone… Let's do it… Let's protect our people… Even if it means that our lives must be sacrificed… Let's make it worth it as well…" she said.
"Very well!"
The Elders nodded and cheered, their magical auras exuding from their bodies began to explode in large quantities of Mana, as their elemental power began to emerge loudly and wildly.
They glanced into the distance as they began to quickly conjure magic spells, preparing powerful Area of Effect Magic that would deal large quantities of damage to many units at the same time, a type of magic often called Military Magic.
Military Magic, unlike conventional magic, was made to deal with many units at the same time, it was a special type of magic that could deal damage to many units at the same time, although they might not be as strong as concentrated magic that dealt damage to a single unit at a time and might even damage a few in the process, military magic was at a different scale, being highly explosive and usually with spread-like effects that affected even units that were not directly hit.
The power of moonlight resonated through her body as the Lady Winter Lotus eyes shone brightly, she couldn't fly though, nor any mortal could unless they mastered the power of Wind Attribute Magic, which was very rare, so they all decided to stand over the city walls, which were tightly shut and sealed using powerful runes, they were going to hold their ground in the city walls and shot down as many Shadow Beasts as they possibly could using their Military Magic…
"Even in the day, the Moon is always watching, oh mother of the ocean waves, bring forth the strength into this weak and sickly body to deal with the ever-spreading darkness. Your light illuminates the path of wanderers across dark nights, use this light and illuminate our path through these endless shadows… Moonlight Domain!"
FLASH!
Suddenly, the moon atop the skies shone brightly for a faint second, an illusion that generated the power of the amazing Moonlight Magic that the Lady Winter Lotus has mastered in her life.
A massive amount of pink and purple light emerged from her body and spread out around the walls of the entire city of the sect, generating a strange domain, reinforcing the strength of the wall, enhancing everyone's mana and vitality regeneration, alongside their magical power! It even enhanced her magical power, almost doubling the damage that her Moonlight Magic could inflict on enemies.
"Atop the clouds, the beautiful moon glances over creation with its pale beauty, silver moon, I summon your beauty in our humble residence… Moon Dragon Familiar Summoning!"
FLAAAASH!
Another wondrous spell was conjured by the Sect Master, surprising everyone as a long snake-like dragon emerged from a mass of moonlight atop the sect master's body! This was the same dragon she had used to fight off the armies of shadow beasts at the beginning, and which she had used to barely manage to send them off. This massive dragon resembled an eastern dragon with all its classic appearance, long whiskers coming out of its upper lips as sharp pink eyes flashed with eerie purple light.
Its scales were silvery-white the same color as the moon, as it had long bluish-purple hair forming a mane around its neck. It only had small little arms with claws, but they were more than enough to slash through its enemies ruthlessly. This powerful creature was a Rank 4 Familiar which the sect master had contracted long ago from an ancient Lunar Dragon Egg that was left by her ancestors through the years, it was said that her great ancestors had once employed the power of these mystical dragons and had made them their familiars.
At the age of 7, she had somehow managed to make the dragon egg which had stayed like this for hundreds of years hatch as a small and young Lunar Dragon Hatchling was born, quickly becoming her familiar in the process and enhancing all her abilities even more.
As such a talented child, Lady Winter Lotus couldn't possibly be left without becoming the sect master! She used her talent and the things her mother taught to her to become the strongest sect master of the Winter Lotus sect had ever seen.
The massive and beautiful horned eastern dragon-like familiar groaned loudly, as its entire body exuded a powerful presence, extending over 40 meters long, it was truly a titan amongst titans…
"Once more we are together, my partner… Let's do our best until our very last drop… However… I want you to escape when all of this comes down… You can fly, while we cannot… you must escape this when everything is done, and if possible, watch over our children with your care." Said the sect master.
"Grooarr…"
The Dragon's eyes were filled with sorrowfulness as it felt the sorrow of its master, her words were genuine, and she planned to die today. The dragon who had chosen her as his master couldn't possibly see her die like this, but it's not like it had an option, the familiar must always obey its master…
The hordes of shadow beasts approached at a fast speed; the decisive battle was about to begin…
The sect master and the elder readied their spells, as chaos fell asunder.
