"...Why should I worry? Because of this sword strike?"
Yulia gave Machira a strange look, then glanced at the many others who were also secretly watching the scene in various ways, and grinned:
“I could throw an attack of that power with my fist if I were to be a little serious. Emery has plenty of ways to deal with it, so there’s no need to worry.”
As if to confirm Yulia's words, something else fell from the sky, this time several magical suns, each about a hundred meters in diameter, like a meteor shower on a summer night.
Boom boom boom boom!
The spells quickly hit the ground, creating red mushroom clouds. The intense heat and explosions blasted several basins into the lush Yunshan Mountains, causing the temperature to rise significantly within a radius of tens of kilometers.
"It's the young lady's sacred magic!"
The morale of the allied forces also rose, and many looked up at the sky:
"It seems that the battle in space has reached a fever pitch."
Every so often thereafter, something would fall from the sky. Sometimes it was crescent-shaped or spike-shaped Divine Lightning Sword light, and sometimes it was all sorts of powerful magic. Each strike that hit the ground changed the terrain of the Cloud Mountain Range. Before long, this place, which was originally the most beautiful place in the Heavenly Cloud Empire, became like a living hell.
Fortunately, when the Immortal Sect summoned its experts back to the mountain for defense, it also took the opportunity to relocate all the civilians within a thousand miles. Otherwise, the aftershocks of the battle between the two experts in space alone could have caused heavy casualties to the Tianyun Empire.
Meanwhile, in space, after several tentative exchanges, the battle between Emerald and Tenon had indeed reached a fever pitch.
Emerald's advantage lies in her fast casting speed, powerful spells, and the continuous barrage of spells in various forms, which can suppress the enemy with overwhelming firepower. Moreover, she also has multiple means to withstand Tianyin's counterattack.
Tianyin's advantage lies in the fact that her sword light can cut through everything. No magic of Amelite can defeat Tianyin's sword light head-on. Whenever Tianyin draws her sword, Amelite must dodge. All defensive magic is useless against the sword light that is compressed from the Divine Lightning of the Heavenly Firmament.
This is also the main reason why Tianyin was rated as the most difficult character to fight in the original game. She is immune to any negative status effects, and each attack can remove all the buffs from the player's body. She can also ignore most of the damage reduction values, which makes all the most commonly used attack methods ineffective. Only by overwhelming the player with higher character levels or some unorthodox methods can the player clear the game.
However, in the game, one can achieve overwhelming superiority by endlessly grinding attributes, but in reality, it is unlikely to do so... Therefore, Emery decided to use unorthodox methods to end this battle.
Chapter 369 Two-way journey
...No, we'll lose if this continues!
After Amérite dodged another massive crescent-shaped Divine Thunder Sword strike, Tenon's heart finally began to race.
An attack that can cleave from space to the ground with a single sword strike, altering the terrain and creating rifts, is very cool, but such attacks also consume a lot of resources.
Even for Tianyin, the senior disciple of the immortal sect, it's not a big problem to slash dozens of times in a row, but after slashing hundreds or thousands of times, she would still feel tired.
When the battle first became intense, Tianyin didn't pay much attention.
She felt that she had cultivated for nearly 2000 years, and even if the witch was incredibly talented, she should still be inferior to her in terms of spiritual foundation.
Moreover, the witch was constantly casting powerful spells in quick succession, which obviously consumed far more energy. It should have been the witch who got tired first.
However, the truth is that Tianyin is already feeling a bit tired. Amelie's powerful spell suppression has not weakened at all. Magic capable of destroying towns is being unleashed one after another as if it were free, and the power of each strike is not to be underestimated by Tianyin.
Judging from observing Emerald's expression and listening to her breathing, she showed no signs of fatigue, which amazed Tenon.
This is the outermost heaven! There's no way to absorb external spiritual energy to recover itself. How does this witch possess such power?
Tianyin couldn't understand it, but she had to face a reality—that if she continued to wear herself down like this, she would be at an increasing disadvantage until she lost.
With Tianyin's pride, this was something she absolutely could not accept. She did not want to lose to anyone except her master, Dao Ancestor, let alone a little girl who was less than a fraction of her age.
But how can we win?
After hundreds of rounds of fierce fighting, Tianyin was certain that Emeryte knew exactly how powerful her sword light was, so she never defended against the sword light's attacks and always chose to dodge them.
Unlike many of the opponents Tianyin had faced before, who were blindly confident in their own defensive methods and ended up being cut in two by the sword light and killed instantly.
Since her opponent was unwilling to take the attack head-on, Tianyin could only try to improve her hit rate. She tried to increase the speed of her sword swings and also tried multiple sword strikes in succession, but all of them failed.
No matter how Tianyin unleashes her sword light, and no matter how fast her sword light flies, it still has a trajectory and flight time.
Emerald's reaction speed was undoubtedly astonishing. She could always turn into golden light and dodge the sword light that could cut through everything within the microseconds of its trajectory after Tianyin swung it out.
No matter how powerful the attack, it's useless if it misses.
After observing Ameliette's spell that involved teleporting in golden light several times, Tianyin roughly guessed the mechanism—it was the power known as the Great Path of Miracles according to the immortal sects.
The drawback of this power is that it consumes a great deal of energy. For example, to achieve the same teleportation effect, the power consumed by using the power of miracles would be at least 10 times that of using spatial magic. However, the advantages of this power are also obvious: as long as you are willing to consume magic power, you can achieve almost any effect.
Emerald's golden avatar, besides being able to teleport short distances, clearly also possessed some kind of untargetable effect, making it impossible for Tianyin's sword light to hit her.
After trying nearly a thousand sword strikes in various ways, Tianyin had to admit that this long-range attack was probably ineffective against Emeryte.
If Tianyin wanted to win, she naturally only had one option left—to get close first, and then stab her hard with a sword at a speed that Emery couldn't react to.
Tianyin is, after all, a sword cultivator, while Amelite is clearly a spellcaster. How could a sword cultivator lose a close-quarters battle against a spellcaster?
At least that's what Tianyin herself thinks.
the other side.
Emery was getting a little anxious because she couldn't defeat Tenon.
After all, although Tianyin, the senior sister of the immortal sect, is very strong, in Amelite's plan, she is ultimately just a gatekeeper before the BOSS and not worth wasting too much energy on. However, she has fought for nearly a thousand rounds and still hasn't been able to defeat her.
Despite Amelite having used all her magic to bombard the enemy, Tianyin still managed to dodge the spells with her agility, parry them with her swordsmanship, and deal with the almost unsolvable Divine Lightning.
Divine thunder can shatter all laws!
This famous saying from the Tianyun Empire is indeed not an exaggeration; the Divine Firmament True Thunder is too overpowered.
If she hadn't already encountered several divine powers, Amelie might have genuinely believed that the Divine Lightning was the strongest spell in the world.
In particular, Tianyin's ability to fully control the Divine Thunder of the Firmament makes her immune to all control spells and negative status effects, rendering many of Amelite's useful methods ineffective. As a result, she can only resort to bombarding the enemy with spells and engaging in direct confrontations, but she has been unable to defeat Tianyin for a long time.
...We still need to find a way to control her first, and then unleash our full power!
While fighting and pondering, Amelie made this decision.
How could Tianyin, who was capable of wielding the Divine Firmament Thunder, be controlled? After observing Tianyin for a while, Amelie finally focused her gaze on the Divine Firmament Sword in Tianyin's hand.
It is said that the sword is the pride and soul of a swordsman, even more important than life itself.
Perhaps we can take advantage of this...
Emerald's mind raced, and she quickly came up with a wicked tactic. Although it would injure her and seem quite dangerous, Emerald would have a 100% chance of winning if it succeeded. Although she appeared to be fighting against Tenon one-on-one, she was not actually fighting alone. She had a loyal and reliable maid and a mysterious and powerful backer.
...I need to find a way to get her closer to me and lure her into my trap!
Emery immediately began the first step of her tactics.
As luck would have it, Amelie and Tenon made the decision to change tactics and break the current stalemate almost simultaneously, and the first step of both tactics was close combat.
They went their separate ways.
Soon, Tianyin seized upon a 'mistake' by Amelite while casting her spell, decisively combining herself with her sword to charge forward. At the cost of enduring many holy rays, she finally reached Amelite's side and swung her sword to strike.
As Tianyin had predicted, Emeryte's spellcasting ability was unparalleled, but her close combat skills were very poor; at least to a sword cultivator like Tianyin, she was just a nobody.
With just two casual sword strikes, Emery was caught off guard and her usually composed and beautiful face finally showed signs of panic, making her look rather pitiful.
Tianyin continued her sword attacks, her skills improving and her condition becoming increasingly better. Even something that had been dormant for nearly two thousand years seemed to stir within her, yearning to once again become the Holy Maiden of Joy…
...No, this witch is using her charm spells to disturb my mind again!
Realizing what was happening, Tianyin grew even angrier, her Shenxiao Sword flashing faster and faster with each strike.
Amelie's close-combat skills were indeed lacking; she was no match for the opponent. The magic she could use in close combat was completely useless against the Divine Thunder.
puff!
Finally, with the sound of a sword piercing into a body, Tianyin succeeded. Her sword even pierced through the divine artifact on Amelite's body, directly piercing Amelite's waist, and at the same time, she poured the power of the Divine Thunder into Amelite's body.
"Waaaaah..."
Emerald couldn't help but groan in pain as she was stabbed by the sword. Then, the power of the Divine Lightning struck her so hard that her whole body became paralyzed, and even her sphincter muscles lost their function, causing her to wet her socks.
"Hmph, your end has come, witch!"
Seeing that Ameliete had urinated from the sword wound, Tianyin became even more excited and prematurely declared her victory:
"Die!"
Then, Tenon planned to twist the blade a few times before making a horizontal slash, first widening the wound to make Emeralt suffer more and lose her ability to resist, and then directly split Emeralt in two at the waist, completely completing the killing of the witch.
Just as Tianyin was about to stir the Divine Firmament Sword, she found her wrist suddenly grabbed by Amelite. Although Amelite's expression was still painful, a slight smile appeared on her lips.
"Finally caught you... Seal!"
"Varied……"
To Tianyin's astonishment, the wound on Amelie's waist where the Divine Firmament Sword had pierced her actually started to burn. Then, it healed in the life-giving flames, and her flesh and blood gripped the Divine Firmament Sword, which was still stuck inside, making it difficult to pull out.
At the same time, Emerald grabbed Tenon's wrist and activated a sealing spell, making the connection between Tenon and herself even stronger. Invisible ribbons were also launched, binding Tenon through her white dress and gauze, reinforcing the control effect as much as possible.
"Ah……"
Seeing that Emeryte wanted to keep a tight rein on her, Tenon smiled again:
"You're a madwoman... But so what if you've restricted my movements? You're the one who got pierced through by my sword! I'll see which is stronger, your healing flames or my Divine Firmament Thunder!"
Crack!
Tianyin gave up resisting the control that Amelite had exerted on her, and instead transformed all her spiritual power into Divine Firmament True Thunder, pouring it into Amelite once again, tearing her wounds open with lightning.
"Hmph..."
Emery gritted her teeth and did not respond to Tianyin's words. However, her bright golden right eye suddenly shone like the sun, and she launched the real killing move of her tactic.
Holy-type Superior Magic: Corona!
As we all know, the surface temperature of the sun is only about 6000 degrees Celsius, while the temperature of the outermost layer of the sun's atmosphere, called the corona, is as high as millions of degrees Celsius!
The Divine Transcendental Magic Corona is a new trans-level magic that Amelie developed based on this principle with the help of the Elf Queen.
Its effect is to mimic the solar corona phenomenon of the sun with holy magic, and to meet the conditions of religious symbolism to increase the spell's effectiveness. It burns all enemies around it with a temperature of millions of degrees, making it a melee spell with extremely high continuous damage, which is just right for this situation.
The Divine Sword was stuck inside Amelite's flesh, and Tianyin, who was firmly held by Amelite, thus completely absorbed the effects of this transcendental magic.
"Aaaaaaahhhhhh...!"
Almost instantly, Tianyin's white dress and gauze robe were burned to ashes in the sun's fire. Then, her embroidered bodice and white stockings also disappeared, leaving her fair skin charred black. The center of the charred black glowed crimson, causing Tianyin's entire body to burn, and she let out a scream.
Even though she was burned to such an extent, Tianyin was still not defeated. After all, she was the senior sister of the immortal sect, second only to the Dao Ancestor in strength. Even in the sun's corona with a temperature of millions of degrees, she could withstand it with her spiritual power.
At this point, Tianyin faced three choices.
First, use the Divine Firmament True Thunder to protect the body from the intense heat of the super-level magic, the Sun Corona.
Second, temporarily abandon the Divine Firmament Sword, loosen your grip and break free from control, create distance between yourself and Emeryte, and then look for another opportunity.
Third, ignoring the pain of being burned by the high temperature, continue to pour the Divine Thunder into Amelite and see who can't hold on any longer!
Tianyin almost immediately abandoned the first option, as it was essentially a resource-intensive scheme that Tianyin would not consider.
The second option... Tianyin hesitated for a few seconds, then gave up.
Objectively speaking, this is actually the most stable and safest choice. In any case, the Divine Firmament Sword has long been connected with the Heavenly Sound, so temporarily giving it up will not allow it to be taken away by Amelite. We can just find an opportunity to take it back from Amelite's body.
But the sword is the most important partner of a sword cultivator, the pride of a sword cultivator, the soul of a sword cultivator. Even if an excellent sword cultivator's soul is scattered, he will never let go of the hand holding the sword... Abandoning the sword is a greater disgrace for a sword cultivator than becoming a prisoner or plaything of the enemy.
Even though Tianyin was loyal to Daozu and wanted to protect him, she still couldn't overcome her pride as a sword cultivator. She would rather fail than give up her sword!
Therefore, Tianyin only has one choice!
"Aaaaaah... I refuse to believe my willpower is weaker than yours, you witch!!"
With a roar, Tianyin abandoned all defensive measures and relied solely on her body and willpower to withstand the super-level magic, using all her spiritual power to attack... She wanted to kill Amelite with the Divine Lightning before she was burned to death by the sun!
This choice wasn't entirely wrong, because the Divine Firmament Sword piercing Emerald's body and the constant infusion of Divine Firmament True Lightning did indeed cause Emerald extremely high damage.
If it weren't for Masie constantly feeding Emerald Flame Essence remotely to heal her, Emerald would most likely have lost consciousness in the Divine Thunder first.
Because one of Tianyin's judgments was correct... No matter how good Ameliete's talent is, she is still too young, and her willpower is ultimately not as strong as Tianyin's, who has cultivated for nearly two thousand years.
Unfortunately, this was not a fair duel between the strong, but a war in which martial ethics and any means were disregarded in order to win. Emerald never thought of fighting Amane one-on-one.
She can get Marcy to provide her with long-range healing support to maintain her undefeated status, and naturally she can also rely on the power of her strong backer to deliver a decisive blow to Tianyin.
The sun's fire continued to scorch, and the divine thunder roared incessantly.
Tianyin was burned all over her body, her head was burned bald, and her skin was no longer white, but charred and fiery red. She had turned from a beautiful fairy into a burning ghost.
Emerald wasn't much better off. She could no longer maintain her elegance as a young lady. Most of her muscles had lost control after being struck by Shinshou's True Lightning. Snot and saliva soaked her clothes, and her skirt and pantyhose were completely urinated on, as if she had unlocked a defeat CG.
But this was the opportunity that Emerald had been waiting for. As the corona and solar fire continued to burn, Tenon's injuries finally worsened to a certain extent, reaching a state that could be considered weak.
Suddenly, Emerald opened her mouth and, to Tenon's astonishment, bit Tenon's forehead... It wasn't a real bite, but rather Emerald used her tongue to press the artifact card she had hidden in her mouth beforehand against Tenon's forehead.
