Chapter 798: 24 Volumes, Signal Fires Link the Camps, Chapter 10: Escaping Calamity

Komer had no choice but to make this risky move.

Uma’s situation had become extremely dangerous, slightly any delay meant she would vanish into thin air. Komer was still unclear about what exactly had happened that led Uma to become deeply trapped within the Supreme Light Sky Net, so he had to make a decisive choice.

Earth Dragon Escaping was not a particularly high-level spell, and for Clarence, such magic was quite familiar. However, if Earth Dragon Escaping was combined with the Wood Magic’s Soft and Tough Technique, it could instantly transform into an unprecedented type of Mixed Magic. Clarence had never thought that he could master both types of magic; although Wood Magic originated from Earth Magic, it had long become distinct. As an earth-based magician, he was not proficient in Wood Magic, but the few words whispered by the Lord had just opened a window on Clarence’s path of seeking the Magic Heaven, not necessarily a bright one, but enough to vaguely see the twinkling stars in the sky.

Clarence was also aware of the risks he was taking by using Earth Dragon Escaping to open an underground passage for that eccentric individual. However, the soil could not completely block the infiltration of the Holy Light Technique, it could only provide some resistance. What method Lord would use to help that individual escape, Clarence did not know; he just needed to take the risk of opening this passage. And surely, this closely opened passage would not escape the perception of the Light Saints, who possessed extraordinary senses. They would definitely use various means to stop Clarence’s actions. Clarence had to withstand the first wave of their assaults; only after completing the passage could he retreat. As the price of risk, Komer’s Toughening Technique would permeate into Clarence’s Earth Dragon Escaping, greatly enhancing his ability to resist various magical attacks.

In fact, Clarence did not place much importance on this simple technique; he valued how this form of Wood Magic mixed with his own Earth Magic opened a door in his mind. It also meant that he could follow this barely visible path to pursue what he wanted, while countless other magicians might explore in chaos their entire lives, unable to ever find that risky, narrow secret path.

Clarence tried to mix the Soft and Tough Technique into the Earth Dragon Escaping. The ground immediately sank into a crater of moderate size. Almost without seeing Clarence’s action, as soon as his body sank into the mud, the surrounding soil silently squeezed together, and soon the crater disappeared without a trace like a fleeting illusion.

Clarence was surprised to find that the Soft and Tough Technique merged so perfectly with the Earth Dragon Escaping. He could clearly feel his speed underground increase significantly, and the pressure from the surrounding soil also noticeably decreased. Clarence knew this was not because the spatial pressure around him was reduced but because his body’s resistance had greatly improved with the implementation of the Soft and Tough Technique. This made him feel not only a significant change in speed with the Earth Dragon Escaping but also an increase in flexibility and impact resistance by several levels.

Salianco immediately realized that the life force of Maldono, who was already in a comatose state, was rapidly fading. He could no longer afford to support the Blazing Burning Sky Magic Array. Three Saints from the Church of Light were nominally led by Iliana, but in reality, it was Maldono who played the leading role. Unexpectedly, he had been turned around despite having an absolute advantage, endangering his life.

A series of supportive magics were continuously cast on the unconscious Maldono. The powerful rescue capability of Light Magic was not in vain. Although it did not immediately pull Maldono back from the brink of death, it at least ensured that he would not immediately perish.

Iliana arrived shortly after, shocked by the otherworldly Ghosts summoned by the Undead Summoner. Although she had been monitoring the Undead Mage, from Giant Zombies to Black Warriors to Soul Eating Gnomes, these otherworldly Undead were increasingly powerful. This hinted at the strength of the Undead Summoner, whose attack had put Maldono at the risk of death despite his absolute advantage. If not for Salianco’s quick reaction, Maldono would likely have already been lost to the netherworld.

The elemental fluctuations emanating from underground did not escape Iliana’s discerning eyes. It was evident that an earth-based magician was active underground. The faint presence of Dark Aura seemed to be attempting to disrupt Iliana’s analytical judgement. Could it be that the opponents were trying to rescue that Undead Summoner already trapped in the Supreme Light Sky Net?!

Iliana had no time to consider much. A series of reinforcement magics were poured into the Supreme Light Sky Net, enhancing both the toughness and strength of the net.

Uma felt his whole body was almost squeezed out of breath. He wanted to abandon his body and forcibly break free, but the strong Light Power emitted by the Supreme Light Sky Net made him dare not attempt it. Without the support of a physical body, relying solely on the Dark Origin power against this custom-made Light Magic was undoubtedly unwise. The power of the Light Sky Net would entwine around his original power like maggots clinging to bone, until it completely destroyed his Dark Origin power. Unless a certain power could help him break through the constraints of Light Sky Net instantly, even if it were just for a moment, he could take the opportunity to escape. As for how much damage the Dark Origin would suffer, it exceeded what Uma could consider now.

Uma felt somewhat desperate. His only hope was pinned on Komer. Although the Undead Power he held was formidable, they lacked the intellect to accomplish such a task. However, deploying them to hold off these mages’ powers and create some opportunities for Komer was still feasible, and that was all Uma could hope for now.

Clarence sped through the Underground, the Soft and Tough Technique greatly increasing his speed and pressure resistance. The layer of dark aura attached to him was somewhat uncomfortable for Clarence, but he knew it was key to rescuing that guy. Although Clarence did not know exactly what magic Lord had cast on him, it was definitely useful against the Light Magic Barrier that the mages of the Church of Light had placed on that guy.

Iliana nervously monitored the changes in the Earth Elemental Aura below the ground. This earth-based magician was quite cunning, changing directions erratically to shed her monitoring. Yet it was clear his target was aimed at the undead summoner, who was still struggling fiercely. That faint trace of dark aura was gradually intensifying, which made Iliana somewhat surprised about how this earth-based magician planned to rescue his troubled companion.

Clarence finally approached the location where Uma was trapped. He was unclear on how to disrupt the Supreme Light Sky Net binding the other, but his utmost trust in Komer made him act entirely according to Komer’s instructions. When he powerfully drove the Earth Dragon Escaping technique to suddenly burst from the ground and hit the red Light Sky Net, Clarence felt as if his entire body was suddenly hit by some force, exploding, The immense explosive force ejected him ten meters away, while, at the same time, the hidden dark aura nearing eruption also suddenly burst forth, directly surging at the mutually repelling light circle.

The piece of Dark Magic that Komer had added to Clarence finally had a startling effect. The Dark Radiance Stinger was an esoteric magic, more akin to assassination techniques, its powerful penetrating power closely resembling an attack by some kind of weapon. It was of little use in mages’ duels, but now it played a miraculous role.

The fierce impact of the Dark Radiance Stinger caused the Supreme Light Sky Net to momentarily reveal a weak link, Uma immediately sensed the opportunity. Almost without hesitation, he abandoned his body, risking his Dark Origin power in a desperate move. The powerful Dark Devouring Force finally joined the impact from the Dark Radiance Stinger on the exterior, creating a brief gap in the otherwise impregnable Supreme Light Sky Net. A shadow flashed through the red circle of light, instantly burrowing into the mud, while Clarence, coordinating with that escaping shadow, rapidly deployed a series of earth-based Magic Shields to reinforce the land’s resistance, ensuring the success of their plan.

Iliana, realizing the problem at its core, continuously released the Heavenly Sacred Flame, hoping to bathe the entire affected area with the Heavenly Sacred Flame to completely obliterate the daring fugitive. However, it was clear that the enemy’s plan was perfect. Though the Heavenly Sacred Flame’s light caused the dark shadow to shrink considerably, the enhanced mud provided cover resisting the melting of the Sacred Flame. As the heart-wrenching screams gradually faded, Iliana knew that the enemy had successfully evaded this calamity.

Realizing Uma had successfully escaped, Komer’s mood relaxed at once, and his attention returned to the battle at hand. The formidable Black Warrior leading the skeleton warriors had successfully pinned down the opposing mages’ powers, and the Puppet Magic Dolls were continuously challenging Onia’s patience from within the ranks of skeleton warriors. Although their situation was worsening, that was irrelevant, as Komer hoped for this result, just to tie down the opposing mages. The rest was for him and his companions to perform.
