Chapter 545: Chapter 545

On the main battlefield, Du You had noticed the fighting in the dense forest. Although he wasn’t clear about what was happening there, the advantage was fully on their side, making it nearly impossible for them to lose.

Even if the enemy had prepared some special items, Du You didn’t believe they could lose.

In front of him, Du You watched as his ironclad defense held up against the enemy. Unable to unleash his Destruction Flames, he turned to summoning instead. Xiaozi flew out into the sky, already on her way to assist the Griffin Knights in their battle.

The end of the aerial battle would mark the concluding Chapter of this war.

A Purple Lightning Golden Eagle combined with a Thunder Doppelganger, these entities were even more formidable than the Griffin Knights.

Following this, the Ghost Pattern Crow took off, spread out its Weakening Aura, and then unleashed its Bloodthirsty Feather Arrow and Song of Misfortune. Under a stack of various curses, the Sand Sculpture Knights, already inferior to the Griffin Knights, found themselves in an increasingly tough spot.

With the addition of these two fresh forces, the Sand Sculpture Knights immediately collapsed. The Griffin Knights pursued them from behind, killing them relentlessly. Victory seemed to be just a matter of time. After all, the Griffins could fly faster than the Sand Sculptures. Even if the Griffin Knights couldn’t catch up, the Battle Griffins and a few higher-level Griffins were impossible to shake off.

Meanwhile, Du You sent out his mount, the Black Jade Griffin. This griffin, a transformed Wind King Griffin, is a king among griffins. Its appearance bolstered the morale of the other griffins significantly.

On the ground, the Death Scorpion was dispatched. But it didn’t unleash the desert storm nor sandified the land as these abilities would afford conveniences to the Sandpeople. The Death Scorpion just wrapped itself in some sand and charged into close combat.

The Heavenly Disaster Giant Dogs were now demonstrating the power of their war equipment. Wherever they passed, less capable Sandpeople felt their strength draining and their bodies weakening rapidly. Over time, they would be completely incapacitated.

And it was practically impossible to withstand the attacks of the Heavenly Disaster Giant Dogs, their terrifying power was unstoppable even for the second-tier Quicksand soldiers.

Lastly, there was the Death Ape. This creature was not the fastest attacker, but it was immensely strong. Most importantly, its defense was extremely formidable. No matter how many attacks were thrown at it, the Death Ape remained unharmed.

Unfortunately for those unlucky enough to attack the Death Ape, they would get poisoned upon contact. The poison was intense and even second-tier Quicksand soldiers couldn’t endure it for more than a few seconds. Eventually, these Quicksand soldiers didn’t even dare to get close. Only the priests from behind dared to attack the Death Ape from a distance using their magic.

However, these priests soon discovered their mistake when they found out that the slow-moving Death Ape could use Instantaneous Movement, appearing beside them in a flash. The priests might have been slower than the Death Ape.

The Quicksand Priests who had charged up with the army suddenly found themselves in an extraordinarily awkward situation.

"It’s all because of this man. As long as we kill him, it’ll all be over." Suddenly, Fengcao noticed Du You, who had just conducted the summoning, standing on a city wall not far away.

For the first time, Fengcao did something right, disregarding other targets around him and heading straight for Du You.

"Careful, my Lord!" Luo Jia suddenly shouted from the side.

Du You immediately said, "Let him come, you step aside." Luo Jia was a talent, but his current strength was too weak. Du You didn’t want him to pass. This level of battle involved a thin line between life and death.

Without interference, Fengcao who charged speedily was soon closing in on Du You. "Die," he intoned.

Fengcao, his eyes stained crimson, raised his long knife preparing to attack. But Du You was quicker, sending forth a Dark Fire Serpent. Nine black fire serpents entwined Fengcao, gnawing ceaselessly at him, his agony sinking deep into his marrow.

Dark Swamp soon enveloped Fengcao’s legs, anchoring him in place.

Fengcao roared, his Dou Qi ignited explosively, like a bomb, incinerating the fire serpents, their combined explosive power even more terrifying. Surrounding sandpeople and human warriors were blown away.

Unfazed by the freed Fengcao charging forwards, Du You deployed another Dark Swamp to envelop him, and just before Fengcao could release his Dou Qi again, Du You preemptively unleashed a barrage of Dark Arrow Needles combined with Putrid Insect Mist. Fengcao was plunged into an impossible situation.

But at that moment, the Seal Magic Ball was activated once more. A red energy flow erupted suddenly, and Du You felt the force of his magic spells rapidly weakening. In the first second, his Dark Arrow Needles weakened, the Putrid Insect Mist disappeared, and the Dark Swamp was dispelled.

Fengcao burst free, braving the Dark Needles with his body bathed in a bright green light as he charged towards Du You. Fresh chapters posted on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⚑𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖⚑𝕟𝕖𝕥

On the second second, the Death Scorpion attempted Land Transfer, which failed under the anti-magic state, and anchored to the spot, it became useless. Du You knew that he couldn’t rely on the Death Scorpion. An originally minor skirmish had unexpectedly escalated to such a dangerous level.

In the blink of an eye, a shield surfaced before Du You’s eyes, the Shield Spell materialised. But as the shield appeared, Du You was aware of its integrity weakening rapidly.

Yet it managed to halt Fengcao’s long knife. On the third second, the Shield Spell shattered. Du You felt the weakened Shield Spell unable to defend against his adversary’s Dou Qi blade, but the cause of its previous disintegration was not due to the enemy’s attack, but the Seal Magic Ball’s effect of weakening magic, astonishingly dissipating his Shield Spell in a second.

With a savage expression, Fengcao ran towards him, pressing down hard with the long knife in his hand, its Dou Qi slicing power even more terror-inducing. Du You, realising the imminent danger, gritted his teeth, prepared to fight to the death.

Just then, a shadow darted out from beside him. It turned out a heavily armed warrior who had been nearby rushed forward. A clang reverberated, and the warrior was sent flying.

Left on his body was a horrifying wound, his armor in pieces, the individual inside injured. After this strike, the heavily armed warrior, if not dead, would be severely injured.

Neither Fengcao nor Du You anticipated this development. After the incident, Fengcao roared again and cleaved at Du You. But this time, Du You was not flustered; instead, a cruel smile surfaced on his face.

"Still trying to kill me. No, it’s your turn to die." Three seconds had passed, and Du You felt the suppression on his magic power around him dissipate.

Paired with his earlier calculations, Du You knew it was because the Seal Magic Ball could only exert its effects for three seconds. Now that his magic power was no longer weakened, his magic spell was not something a mere Level 20 native could withstand.

"Star Guardian." Du You uttered chillingly, and a substantial amount of starlight lit up around him.
