Chapter 285 The Power of Intermediate Spells!

Upon hearing Su Haoming's words from inside the hurricane cage, Lin Yu nodded slightly, then turned his gaze and expressionlessly swept over the five Shenxiao Palace elders beside him.

At this moment, all five of them had numerous injuries.

One of them even had a dark complexion, showing signs of poisoning.

Clearly, although these five guys couldn't beat their opponents, they at least tried their best to stop them and weren't slacking off.

Furthermore, after they fell into a disadvantageous position, they decisively sent a message to Lin Yu, instead of putting on a brave face and making a foolish move that would cause high blood pressure.

These actions barely salvaged Lin Yu's opinion of them.

His expression softened slightly, and he looked at the five elders who were filled with trepidation, saying calmly, "Considering that you all have some self-awareness, I will not punish you severely this time."

"After returning, go to the third level of Shenxiao Peak for seclusion."

"I'll report to the Enforcement Hall when I can withstand nine bolts of silver lightning!"

Upon hearing this, the five elders of the Divine Firmament Palace couldn't help but smile wryly.

The silver lightning on the upper three layers is equivalent to the pill lightning of a seventh-grade elixir, and the power of each one is comparable to that of a five-star Dou Zong.

With their current strength, they definitely can't withstand it. They would probably need to advance to at least a four-star Dou Zong or master some kind of Earth-rank Dou Technique to achieve this goal.

Fortunately, those who seclude themselves on the third level of Shenxiao Peak will receive an ample supply of medicinal pills.

Putting aside the tedium of the retreat, it's really hard to say whether it was a punishment or a reward...

Thinking this, the five elders exchanged glances, all of them letting out a sigh of relief, and respectfully replied:
"Yes, Lord Palace Master!"

"..."

Lin Yu nodded slightly, then turned his head and looked up at the sky.

At this moment, Yun Ye, Fan Xian, and Su Haoming each faced off against a Dou Zong.

The other group members, unable to outbid them, couldn't help but feel frustrated.

After a conversation, and no one knows who first came up with this terrible idea, the group members suddenly took flight and surrounded the three battlefields from all directions.

Even Ainz and Lin Lie, who originally didn't want to compete, were pulled into the air by them, watching the battlefield intently, waiting for someone to be unable to stop the opponent so they could take the opportunity to 'help' them.

The intense gazes cast from all directions intensified the already heavy burden on Iron Guardian and Scorpion Biyan.

However, Protector Wu, with the hurricane cage blocking his way, was unaware of the external situation and was able to exert his normal strength.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, the pitch-black ghost claw clashed with the palm glowing with a pale blue light.

The ripples of cyan-black energy erupted at the point of collision, spreading rapidly in all directions as if they were tangible.

Protector Wu sneered, his body suddenly disintegrating into wisps of black mist. He then strangely flashed to the right in mid-air, instantly appearing beside Su Haoming and striking Su Haoming's ribs with a ghostly claw.

In terms of timing, his combat experience is clearly far superior to Su Haoming's.

Unfortunately, in terms of supernatural powers and methods, Su Haoming, who was in the Foundation Establishment stage, was still superior!
"Om-"

In an instant, a buzzing sound of energy trembling came from Su Haoming's body.

The white clothes, which were originally indistinguishable from other garments, suddenly underwent a strange change. They burst apart from the waist and ribs, turning into streams of pale blue energy that surged out and met the dark ghost claw.

In an instant, countless tiny wind blades, densely packed and spinning at high speed, appeared out of thin air, like a pale blue meat grinder, tearing the black mist-woven ghost claws to shreds!
Sensing the energy contained within the fine wind blades, Protector Wu's expression changed. He hurriedly withdrew his arm and, with another uncanny flash, distanced himself from Su Haoming.

"call--"

A chilling black mist swept past him. Su Haoming raised an eyebrow, brushed off non-existent dust from his body, and sneered at Protector Wu opposite him:
"Your movement technique is good, but your strength is lacking!"

"..."

Protector Wu's face was gloomy, his eyes fixed on Su Haoming's waist and ribs.

At this moment, the pale blue energy had already reformed into clothing, but the fine, small wind blades did not dissipate; instead, they slowly rotated around Su Haoming's body.

From a distance, it looks like the special effects of equipment in an online game, radiating a pale blue energy fragment.

"This is definitely not clothing; it's a fighting technique similar to battle aura armor!"

Protector Wu made a judgment instantly.

In fact, his guess was not far from the truth.

This seemingly ordinary white robe is actually the first basic spell Su Haoming learned—Wind Membrane!
Unlike other spells, the wind membrane will continuously evolve as Su Haoming's cultivation level increases.

Today, the wind membrane of the Foundation Establishment stage has evolved into a windbreaker made purely of energy.

Although it looks no different from ordinary clothes on ordinary days, as long as it is attacked, or if Su Haoming actively triggers it, it will instantly activate the wind energy contained within, turning into a wind blade armor that can automatically counterattack!

With this thing on his body, Su Haoming's entire body was as hard to touch as a hedgehog.

Having already experienced the power of the Wind Blade Anti-Armor, Protector Wu gritted his teeth and thought to himself:

"Since we can't touch the body, let's try other places!"

Thinking of this, Protector Wu made a decisive move. With a wave of his sleeve, strange black mist surged out and instantly condensed into a dark cloud that filled the entire hurricane cage.

Dark clouds spread rapidly, completely obscuring Su Haoming's vision.

The protector of the Wu River was hidden among them, as if he had become invisible, and no trace of him could be found at all.

However… Su Haoming stared at the dark cloud in front of him with a strange expression, unable to understand why Protector Wu was doing this.

Doesn't he know that wind-type experts excel at area-of-effect (AOE) attacks?
Without any hesitation, Su Haoming formed hand seals, circulated his magic power, and at the same time, he slightly raised his right hand, spread his five fingers, and then suddenly clenched it!
"The Wind Seal of Xun - The Roc Spreads Its Wings!"

"Om-"

The next second, the entire hurricane cage erupted into chaos.

A violent burst of pale blue energy detached from the wind barrier and instantly condensed into two blue wings with a wingspan of over a hundred feet, which closed and flapped toward the center of the cage.

"boom!"

With a single strike, the dark clouds filling the cage were easily torn apart by the violent energy contained in the wings.

With a miserable cry, Protector Wu appeared about ten feet in front of Su Haoming. His entire body was torn apart by the cyan energy, revealing a slightly illusory body within the black mist.

"Isn't this okay?"

Su Haoming looked at him with considerable disappointment and said, "I was hoping to play with you a little longer, but judging from your appearance, it seems you can't even withstand one of my intermediate-level spells!"

"..."

Protector Wu's eyes were bloodshot. He gritted his teeth and endured the excruciating pain that felt like his soul was being torn apart. He condensed the last of the black mist into three pitch-black chains and hurled them at Su Haoming.

"Three stages of soul lock!"

In an instant, the black chains pierced through space, transforming into three blurry black lines that shot towards them.

"Is this all the tricks you've been using?"

Su Haoming looked disappointed. He immediately raised his right hand, slightly bent his index and middle fingers, and his internal magic power circulated rapidly, condensing three pale blue needles about an inch long at his fingertips.

On the surface, these pale blue needles have patterns resembling the feathers of a blue phoenix.

But upon closer inspection, you'll find that these so-called patterns are actually high-speed rotating energy particles!

"Sun Wind Seal - Azure Phoenix with Transparent Feathers!"

"Chirp—"

With a whistling sound that was almost like a cry, three pale blue wind needles shot out and pierced through space in an instant, crushing the three pitch-black chains with overwhelming force.

A loud bang was heard, and the three pitch-black chains instantly shattered into wisps of black smoke.

The pale blue wind needles continued forward, like three straight blue lines, piercing through the black mist and penetrating the illusory body of the Protector of the Duck with undiminished force.

The energy contained within the wind needle erupted suddenly, completely tearing apart the last wisp of black mist.

Without the black mist, Protector Wu was left with only a phantom remnant soul.

Realizing this, Protector Wu's translucent face was filled with terror. He immediately dragged his illusory, mangled body and fled in a panic, heading away from Su Haoming.

Unfortunately, all around here are pale blue wind walls.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't escape Su Haoming's grasp.

Seeing this, Su Haoming lost interest, immediately shook his head, and flew towards the headless, fly-like soul.

……

……

Meanwhile, the situation was similar in the other two battlefields.

Iron Guardian hovered weakly in the air, his eyes scanning the surroundings in terror.

He could see Yun Ye's figure everywhere—in front, behind, left, right, up, and down.

A rough count revealed at least several thousand figures densely packed in the air, surrounding him from all directions and blocking almost every possible escape route.

Sunflower Watermark - Mirage!
This is a mid-level water-based spell that can only be cast during the Foundation Establishment stage; it can condense an unlimited number of water clones.

From the outside, these clones are no different from the real body, but in reality, all the clones are illusory and do not possess the same power as the original body, unlike the energy clones of the Golden Core stage.

However, since Lin Yu classified this spell as an intermediate-level spell, it couldn't possibly be just a trick.

In fact, this spell contains a little bit of spatial folding power.

All the clones are closely connected, and the user can switch between them at will as long as they have the thought!
For this reason, Iron Guardian tried to break through and attack several times, only to find in despair that the clones he encountered in every direction were actually real!
"This is impossible!"

Iron Guardian suddenly looked up, gritting his teeth, and said, "With your strength, there is absolutely no way you could condense so many clones!"

"is it?"

Looking down at the Iron Protector, whose face was full of resentment, Yun Ye smiled faintly and glanced at him, saying, "Since you've already guessed it, then I'll just tell you directly!"

"Indeed, many of these clones are illusions."

"But can you tell the difference between truth and falsehood, reality and illusion?"

The sounds came in succession. Yun Ye raised his right hand slightly, bent his index finger, and pointed downwards.

In an instant, thousands of clones moved, each raising their right index finger and aiming it at the Iron Protector in the center.

Upon seeing this, Iron Protector's expression changed drastically, and a deadly sense of crisis rose in his heart.

But before he could make any further move, Wan Qianyunye spoke softly, his expression calm:
"Gui Water Seal - Xuanming Weeping Dew!"
