Chapter 731: Chapter 365: The Strength of Zisang Liuying_2

Her face was as cold as always, keeping people at bay. Across from her, her opponent today was the very assassin defeated by Long Kongkong yesterday, completely covered in a grey cloak.

Assassins naturally counter all magic professions. Though summoners fare a bit better, mages and priests are significantly restrained. The high speed, concealment, and explosive power of assassins pose a great threat to mages.

"Five, four, three, two, one, start."

As the referee announced, the figure of the assassin disappeared on the spot.

This was an 8th Rank assassin. He had used his Spirit Palisade in his match with Long Kongkong yesterday. At this level, an assassin’s explosive power was unmatched. With the mage’s weak defensive power, once he gets close, there is almost no chance to resist.

Yesterday’s loss to Long Dangdang in the presence of three overlapping domains really frustrated the cream of the crop from the Assassins Temple. He couldn’t even get close, and, plus the strong defense of the Adamantine Cathedra battle armor, even if the assassin got close, breaking through the defense of a protection knight would not be easy. Knights naturally counter assassins.

Today, facing Zisang Liuying, he was even more eager to prove himself. Although you are the unparalleled genius of the Magic Temple, you are still a 7th Rank mage. As an 8th Rank assassin, can’t he still beat a 7th Rank mage? He didn’t even plan to give Zisang Liuying a chance to cast her spells. After becoming invisible, he charged straight towards Zisang Liuying. With his speed, the distance between them could be erased in a blink.

Zisang Liuying, holding her magic staff, plunged it into the ground at the moment the referee announced the start.

In the brief time of this simple movement, her opponent had already crossed two-thirds of the distance, with a dagger raised. The assassin’s ultimate move, the King Killer Strike, was already launched.

"Boom". As her staff hit the ground, a deep rumble echoed, and the entire arena shook violently. A dazzling yellow light suddenly erupted around Zisang Liuying. The range of the yellow glow was not large, only about 30 meters in diameter. Like everything was calculated, at the moment the yellow light erupted, the 8th Rank assassin had already rushed into its range.

A severe vibration erupted from the ground, affecting the assassin with a massive uprush. But at that moment, he was surrounded by the Spirit Palisade. This earthquake wave similar to a War Stampede only made him stagger slightly before he broke through it with the powerful impact of the King Killer Strike and continued to charge at Zisang Liuying. The only change was that his invisibility, due to the collision of the impacts, revealed a blurry figure.

The staff planted in the ground by Zisang Liuying lit up with four glows in an instant; first a yellow one, obstructing the path of the King Killer Strike. Earth specialty 7th Rank magic, Vajra Rampart!

This is an extremely strong defensive magic, practically the pinnacle of earth specialty magic at the 7th Rank. Yet, at this very moment, Zisang Liuying instantaneously cast it.

"Bang". The Vajra Rampart was shattered under the impact of the 8th Rank King Killer Strike, scattering yellow light everywhere. The strike didn’t even pause before charging ahead again, showing that the 8th ranked King Killer Strike from an assassin who ranked among the top six in the Assassins Temple cannot be stopped by a mere 7th rank magic spell.

However, the subsequent red, blue, and green glows were already lighting up one after the other.

A red light shone on the King Killer Strike, forcing it to stagger for a moment and significantly slowing it down. This was the Repulsion Fire Ring, a magic spell known by almost every fire specialty mage. Although it’s only at the 4th Rank, when used by Zisang Liuying, it was no longer a simple Repulsion Fire Ring, but a Fire Shield. Concentrating the force of the Repulsion Fire Ring within a small range, the resisting force applied entirely on the King Killer Strike without dispersing.

Following closely were the Water Shield and the Wind Shield. The four elemental spells blocked the path of the King Killer Strike one after another. By the time he forced his way out, he was less than ten meters from Zisang Liuying. His blurry figure became a bit clearer.

For a mage, having an assassin getting within ten meters range is undoubtedly an extremely dangerous situation. However, at this moment, Zisang Liuying appeared unruffled as ever.

She took her second action of the match. The instant that the Regnant Assassin was momentarily halted by four blockading spells, she drew the magic staff staked into the ground and hoisted it over her head.

In a flash, the energies of the four elements, created by the four spells that had just been shattered by the Regnant Assassin, converged inwardly, transforming into a four-colored tornado that shot upwards into the air.

The Regnant Assassin, having just touched his toes to the ground, was ready to exert force again to rush towards Zisang Liuying, who now seemed to be within reach. However, a tremendous lifting force appeared beneath him even before his feet, which were almost at ground level, could touch the ground. He trod on thin air. This lifted him off the ground, floating up in the air, propelled by the power of the four elements.

Under the overpowering might of the Spirit Palisade, even the power of the four elements only managed to lift him slightly into the air, hovering about a meter high. But at this moment, he was unable to advance even an inch.

At that instant, a Spirit Furnace, shimmering with a six-colored radiance, soundlessly materialized before Zisang Liuying. Her body instantaneously turned crystal-clear and radiant. She seemed to have swelled slightly under the illumination of the six colors. A halo of six-colored light even appeared behind her head.

This was the Elements Divine Body, her core capability, which she had once unveiled during the grand contest against Long Dangdang inside the Magic Temple.

Zisang Liuying’s innate inner spiritual power may not have reached one hundred, but it was extremely close. Her Elements Divine Body may be somewhat inferior to Ling Menglu’s innate Light God’s Physique. However, when the six elements were stacked together, its power was certainly not insignificant.

The reason she had not utilized the Elements Divine Body at first was because of the extraordinary speed of the Regnant Assassin, and the innate advantages an assassin possessed over a mage were still somewhat manifested against her. However, at this very moment, with the assassin floating in the air due to the impact, albeit perhaps for just one second, she considered this sufficient room for her to act.

With a forward point of the raised staff, the color of the Element Spirit Furnace in front of her abruptly altered to a combination of gold and black. A tangled beam of two colors shot out. It was the combination of Luminosity and Deep Darkness - the Bipolar Rays.

Previously, to block this strike, Long Dangdang had to simultaneously employ the spatial power of the Far Horizon Proximity Spirit Furnace and Gently Absorb Slowly Regurgitate Spirit Furnace’s Momentary Eternity to overlap the spaces, barely managing to resist. At this moment, the Regnant Assassin, who was floating in the air, simply did not possess such capability.

Several rays of light exploded instantaneously. That was the radiance of the Thousand Strikes Spirit Furnace. The exhausted Regnant Assassin initiated the King Killer Strike once more. It combined with the radiance of the Thousand Strikes Spirit Furnace, and the Spirit Palisade was instantaneously directed forward. At this moment, this 8th Rank assassin already felt a strong threat. Therefore, he held back not at all and broke out in full power. Simultaneously, the Spirit Wings on his back instantly spread open. In this way, he could exert force even whilst floating in the air.

"Boom——" A deafening blast reverberated throughout the arena.

He blocked it! The 8th Rank Spirit Palisade, along with King Killer Strike and Thousand Strikes Spirit Furnace. The integration of several ultimate techniques ultimately managed to block the Bipolar Rays.

But at this moment, spectators with keen eyesight had already reached judgment. Zisang Liuying had won!

The reason was simple. Although the Regnant Assassin had fended off Zisang Liuying’s attack, he had been thrust backward by the powerful explosion caused by the Bipolar Rays. What awaited him next was an onslaught of magic, akin to a raging storm, fueled by the foundation of the Elements Divine Body!
