Chapter 539: Chapter 269: Forbidden Spell, Berserk Elementals_1

The spell was progressing at a steady speed, and above everyone’s heads, the air was filling with increasingly dense multi-colored lights. The intense elemental fluctuations that shook the air were both awe-inspiring and terrifying. Everyone knew what Long Dangdang was up to, and they also knew the horrific devastation that would ensue if this energy was unleashed. If they were not cautious, they would be in serious trouble.

At this time, Ming Xi was not within the area covered by the Gently Absorb Slowly Regurgitate Spirit Furnace, but was instead crawling stealthily in invisibility near the valley, observing the situation from a distance.

Yes, the place they had chosen was the very valley they had discovered earlier, where a large number of wraith entities were stationed. It was home to a vast wraith legion. It was also the place with the densest wraith energy they had discovered in all their previous explorations. This was their target for this mission.

For this operation, they had conducted prior tests and designed a detailed plan. The tests, conducted in the temporary lodging area of the demon hunting team, had verified that no human power could detect it. Long Dangdang had proceeded in the same way as he was doing now, gathering a substantial amount of the power of elements and covering it with the Gently Absorb Slowly Regurgitate Spirit Furnace and the Divine Prayers Small Tree Spirit Furnace. As it turned out, nobody had detected it.

There was certainly no shortage of powerful individuals and sophisticated equipment used for exploration in the demon hunters’ base and the Federation’s Legion. However, they all failed to break through the cover provided by the Gently Absorb Slowly Regurgitate Spirit Furnace. This proved the power of its barrier was superior. Of course, while at the base, Long Dangdang was only amassing great power of elements, not casting the spell he was chanting now. Even if he lost control, he would just set off a firework in the sky at most.

Only after conducting these tests did they perfect their plan and set off again. They had three objectives for this mission. The first was to release the spell that Long Dangdang was currently preparing, the second was to absorb the immense wraith energy generated from the annihilation of the wraith entities, and the third was to return safely.

The power of elements Long Dangdang was generating was growing increasingly vast, but he still maintained a steady rhythm as he controlled his clone in the chant. Everything around them remained unchanged. Even Ming Xi, looking at her companions from outside, could only vaguely see some slight distortions in the air, see no light, and feel nothing.

She would report safety to her companions through the seed spirit crystal every ten seconds.

Gradually, the energy within the Gently Absorb Slowly Regurgitate Spirit Furnace began to rage, and its barrier also began to destabilize. Even though the furnace’s inherent power was sufficient, after Long Dangdang forged a contract with it, the furnace’s level reverted to its initial state and needed to rely on Long Dangdang’s power to be used, therefore, its endurance had a limit. Fortunately, the Divine Prayers Small Tree Spirit Furnace provided enhancement, greatly augmenting this limit and its own capacity.

Ling Menglu anxiously watched Long Dangdang who, along with his clones, appeared very composed, seemingly unfazed by the instability of the barrier. His calmness strengthened the resolve of his comrades. As per the predetermined timetable, Yue Li also began her spell-chanting. She was pre-chanting, not directing the power of elements, but it would accelerate her spell casting later.

Tao Linlin seemed to be the most nervous one, while Wang Changxin was clutching his Heaven Tyranny Sledgehammer, ready to fight at a moment’s notice.

Seeing that the time was almost ripe, Long Kongkong activated his Elemental Vortex Spirit Furnace and prepared to deploy his Devouring Domain.

The Vast Ocean quietly surfaced, standing behind Long Kongkong. His unstable power of moonlight betrayed his excitement. If this operation succeeded, he would be the greatest beneficiary.

As minutes passed, the chant of Long Dangdang’s four clones had continued for nearly ten minutes. The clones began to exhibit signs of instability, trembling slightly. But Long Dangdang himself remained calm.

During his learning journey with Wu Di, Wu Di taught him many things, especially some foundational knowledge of magic. This wasn’t elementary knowledge that an average mage could learn, instead, it represented Wu Di’s own experience cumulated over a hundred years. A prominent lesson among these was how to elevate low-level magic through sublimation to generate high-level magic equivalent power. This was the true essence of combination magic.

Combination magic is not simply an amalgamation of different elemental attributes. It requires synergy and continuous sublimation to promote each other, forming a cycle, so as to achieve a result that’s greater than the sum of its parts.

What Long Dangdang was employing now was a high-end technique known among mages as the Upward Spiraling Chant.

The four foundational elements balanced each other and sublimated through continuous stacking and cycling, generating a spiraling ascension to continually intensify their power.

The greatest advantage of this chant was that it could allow mages to cast magic beyond their level. Of course, it also came with notable issues. First, the elemental power used must form a cycle, like the four-element chant Long Dangdang was currently using, creating a closed loop. The four elements were basic, for six, Long Dangdang was still incapable.

Moreover, many issues came with casting magic beyond one’s level. One had to have sufficient spiritual power and physical resilience to handle it. At the same time, the higher-level magic would be exceptionally challenging to control, or practically uncontrollable. The most that could be done was broadly directing it, and even that would be an achievement.
