Chapter 995: Chapter 754: Come, One-on-One Duel!
On one side, Long Yi, wielding the Cosmic Stone Greatsword, was already pressing forward. The destructive fluctuations crushed one defense barrier after another with a roaring grind, leaving the ancient powerhouses utterly incapable of imagining why their mana shields were so easily shattered! They couldn’t even understand why their shields were so fragile!
On the other side, Little Zi and her thirteen avatars gathered together, with the golden disc floating high above them, into which terrifying amounts of mana were being channelled. Spells poured down like a torrential rain.
With the mana reborn from the Cosmic Stone, Little Zi and her avatars had an abundance of mana beyond the ancient powerhouses’ imagination, and the working principle of the golden disc determined it would eject as many spells as the amount of mana injected into it. Thus, even though the ancient powerhouses could initially struggle, they were soon completely suppressed.
After a fierce onslaught, Long Yi suddenly plunged the Cosmic Stone Greatsword into the ground, and the earth immediately spewed out countless large crystal spikes like waves. One of the ancient powerhouses screamed as he failed to dodge the spikes and was sent flying by one!
"Bastard! We didn’t come unprepared either," an ancient powerhouse roared. He took out a box from his private space. The box was dark gold with a giant Cosmic Stone embedded on the top.
"This is my ultimate treasure. If it weren’t for such a moment, I really wouldn’t want to use it." The face of the ancient powerhouse showed reluctance, but he knew that if he didn’t use it now, there might be no chance later!
"Perish together with me! All of the Giant’s legacy!"
Nielan was shocked and about to intervene, but the ancient powerhouse had already slapped his hand on the Cosmic Stone.
The box immediately flew into the air, simultaneously reassembling itself. It gradually turned into a collective of numerous parts connected by light beams.
"What is this?" Long Yi raised his hand and a destructive arc of light was slashed out. Almost at the same time, the collective exploded. Nearly everyone instinctively dodged, but the shockwave from the explosion didn’t bring any damage.
However, the changes were just beginning.
Some ancient powerhouses started to cry out, as the Giant’s legacy in their hands had been totally destroyed! And it wasn’t just theirs; Ai Lin’s mana Suppression Magic Cube instantly fell apart, Little Zi’s golden disc turned to fragments, and the Twin Bracelets on Ai Lin and Silver Light’s wrists also shattered. However, Ai Lin and Silver Light exhibited no anomalies.
The cries of dismay had only just begun when not only the Giant’s artifacts in the hands of the ancient powerhouses were destroyed, but even those within their private spaces!
Long Yi immediately checked his own private space but found nothing amiss.
This thing is just like an EMP bomb, Long Yi mused.
"What was that?" Ai Lin asked through the contract.
"A device that can destroy electronic products instantly," Long Yi replied.
"What are electronic products?"
"Magic devices from my world, where mana is called electricity."
"Oh."
Although Nielan was pained by the destruction of the Giant’s artifacts in his possession, the good news was that the Giant’s artifacts on Ai Lin and Long Yi’s side were also completely destroyed, putting both sides back on an even starting point!
Regaining their senses, the ancient powerhouses immediately launched fierce attacks.
And Long Yi, Ai Lin, and Little Zi had no choice but to tighten their defense.
"Sorry, I seem to be lagging behind a bit. I feel like I don’t have any abilities other than getting hit right now," Silver Light said with distress.
"Don’t rush, we have plenty of time to slowly think about your fighting style, especially since you’ve just started getting used to this new body," Long Yi replied.
"Yes, I understand," Silver Light said.
"What do we do next?" Little Zi asked.
"Without the ultimate weapon, we just take it step by step, right? Sooner or later, someone between us and the enemy will reveal a weakness," Long Yi said quite easily.
Fighting toe to toe with thirty ancient powerhouses and still at a standstill was already quite good, one couldn’t ask for too much.
Compared to Long Yi’s ease, Ai Lin was slightly anxious, but since Long Yi was not worried, Ai Lin, who always trusted Long Yi, naturally wasn’t anxious either.
They tightened their formation again as the Red Demon Scorpion’s deadly beams kept pounding. Long Yi then released the Cosmic Stone Greatsword and called out, "Lingling."
The Cosmic Stone Greatsword immediately transformed into Lingling’s shape.
"Fire away, whoever you see," Long Yi commanded.
Lingling immediately followed Long Yi’s command, transforming one arm into a Light Cannon and commencing a barrage on the enemies. Back when she was in her Crystal Demon body, Lingling’s Light Cannon was already immensely powerful, since it was an invention of the Crystal Demon from a higher Plane. Now that Lingling had transformed her body into Cosmic Stone, her power had seen a staggering increase!
With each blast, the stricken ancient powerhouses had to defend with all their might. It’s known that in Mage duels, the passively defending side is always at a disadvantage. Any magic can utilize resonant mana from the surroundings to enhance itself, but defensive efforts can only rely on the caster’s own mana.
After several rounds, some ancient powerhouses were starting to falter. Don’t forget; the others hadn’t stopped! Whether it was Long Yi, Ai Lin, Little Zi, or the Red Demon Scorpion, they all kept bombarding with their spells! However, at that moment, Nielan was only focusing on one person.
