Chapter 514 - 268: Torrential Sword Realm
The power Meimei displayed in an instant had already far surpassed the ordinary Excellence Realm. Li Ang did not dare to slack off, so he used the Wide Area Slowdown to control her.
Via the Demon’s Hand, the effect of this Secret Technique was surprisingly effective. Not to mention the slowdown, the entire space seemed to have stagnated.
Its effect had directly elevated. Originally meant to last eight seconds, Li Ang had to make a decision halfway through, but now he felt the time far exceeded the previous limit.
In any case, he must first control her.
The Six-Phase Magic surged out, adjusting its structure under Spiritual Control to form pure Magic Material, quickly linking into ringed Chains, instantly locking the young girl’s entire body.
Ether, Arcane Energy, Nature, and Holy Chains respectively locked her wrists and ankles, while Light and Darkness encircled her neck and waist.
The Chains had formed, but had no fixed point; with her power, she could still break free. Li Ang thought for a moment, clenched the Demon’s Hand, and six Dimensional Rifts forcibly tore open around them, with the six Chains shooting into them and connecting on the other side.
This way, breaking the anchor would not suffice for escape; the Chains must be destroyed. But the Chains themselves were constructed from High-tier Magic as pure Magic Material, directly powered by Li Ang’s Treasure Artifacts, with the Magic output from a Multi-Colored Magic Core, making them exceedingly difficult to destroy.
Next, Li Ang used Natural Magic to raise a Wall of Earth Element. The affinity between these two made the wall incredibly solid, directly colliding with the suspended Sea Tide Blade, and mutually destroying each other.
After neutralizing the threat, he felt the remaining duration of the slowdown. It seemed it could now reach the longest moment of around twelve seconds, while the single-target slowdown could last even longer.
Due to the improvement in Spiritual Control by the Demon Arm, if he prematurely ended the Slow Field, the duration would allow the single-target slowdown to last longer, reducing the opponent’s resistance in the Spiritual Level.
With the slowdown lifted, the young girl who had been leaping forward was pulled by the Chains. Her petite figure was immediately stretched into a star shape in the air.
To maximize the suppression of her resistance, Li Ang kept the Chains as taut as possible. Given her childlike stature, this seemed rather unseemly.
However, she was far more dangerous than an ordinary child.
"—How can your Casting speed be that fast? A Caster countering before I could draw near is at least close to Legendary."
Only when their speed returned to normal could her words be heard by others.
This was due to the skill enhancement from Orichalcum.
"Legendary?"
Meimei bit her lip without responding.
Li Ang took the Sea Tide Blade from her hand: "Suddenly vanishing, posing as a child, full of murderous intent—isn’t this too much? You could’ve just pretended not to know me."
Meimei gritted her teeth, struggled a bit, then released Magic Power, triggering numerous water droplets to float around like raindrops. They gathered above the three present, forming a water sphere.
The interior of the water sphere contained a vortex, which rapidly rotated to attract surrounding Water Elements. In mere seconds, clear water from streams and ponds far away was drawn in, causing a booming commotion.
This commotion shook the mountains and forests, and the water sphere rapidly grew.
Just like the known Transcendent Talent, for Meimei, the power of water was her power. The Spirituality and Magic Power emanating from the gathered Water Elements made the space tremble.
In an instant, she unfolded a Domain.
The impact of the Domain opening a space created a water ring that swallowed Farina, who had raised a Dragon Flame Fireball. When she used Mana to defend, the Domain rose, isolating the space between her and Li Ang.
The surroundings of Li Ang became dim and somber. The sky was without light, as if a highly intense thunderstorm had arrived at this location. In the mountains and forests, torrential rain poured down, obscuring the vision.
"Torrential Sword Realm." The young girl’s voice echoed in the rain.
In the curtain of rain, her fettered petite figure flickered in and out of view. She was trapped but still capable of launching an attack.
Raindrops falling chaotically from the sky began to carry Sword Qi. An ordinary person or Demon entering this rain would be immediately shredded by the descending Water Blades.
Li Ang swiftly threw out several stones with mineral patterns. These stones contained pure Earth Element Earth Core Stones. Their texture wasn’t up to the Excellence Realm, merely Casting materials.
In a domain filled with Water Elements, finding Earth Elements to counter it was extremely difficult. So Li Ang relied on Casting Materials to construct the Earth Rock Armor.
Its principle was similar to the Armor of Wind, only more solid and heavy. The slate-like Earth Armor floated and circled around him, defending against these water droplets imbued with blades.
This wasn’t the full form of the Domain, as the sharp Magic Power within the raindrops required the swordsman of this Domain to wield a sword and control it.
Indeed, this was what Meluna had once told Li Ang; this was her Domain.
The shattered raindrops drenched Li Ang, who wiped his face resolutely.
"Though you’ve always been reckless, let’s see what twisted you so much after so many days apart."
Acceleration Technique and Spiritual Activation simultaneously enveloped him. Li Ang threw out the Oathbreaker’s Vengeance Thornlance to liberate its form, which immediately formed a Counterattack Dark Blade that revolved around him.
At the same time, Orichalcum also liberated as the Six-Phase Mage’s divine Armor, merging with the power of his original Multi-colored Magic Robe. Its surging Magic Power blew away the surrounding raindrops, forming a vacuum within the rain curtains.
The threat of the Demon Curse was temporarily lifted, so he no longer needed to restrain the use of his power.
