Chapter 1839: Group Battles
Chapter 1839: Group Battles
Clara shot towards the two groups battling in the distance without waiting for the others. She crossed a vast distance in an instant when compared to the average Law Dominion Stage Cultivator, but the people behind her kept up with her without any trouble except Fiora and Mo Mingzhi, who stayed because they didn’t want to be a burden.
The ones who rushed to the forefront didn’t use a movement technique flamboyant enough to alert the two groups as they were still battling with intensity, unable to take their eyes off each other.
Blazing flames covered the skies as sparks ignited and exploded upon impact, earth and sand mixed to form into many shapes while threatening to shatter the opponent’s supremacy, wind shredded the many energies flying towards each other, trying to carve a path ahead, and water encased the path, further impeding them from destroying each other.
The two groups were surprisingly balanced as they sent volleys of attacks containing a plethora of elements against each other, strengthened by their domains that covered the skies. If the attacks managed to pass through the first line of defense that sixteen people held, the sixteen other people managed to defend against the onslaught and turned the tides.
The offensive strikes between the two groups went back and forth, and it seemed like unless they made a different move, the status quo wouldn’t break but would remain wasting time on defending until their energies run out, which could take a long time.
This was what the crowd expected. Battles that took a long time to accomplish. However, the status quo was suddenly broken when a Perfect Domain broke into the ranks of a group before taking out one of their defenses.
“Now!”
The vagrant cultivator with the Perfect Domain, wearing a red robe, bellowed as his flames blazed towards the skies and encased four of their defenders who defended against him. At the same time, a volley of elemental attacks was launched from the other side as they flew towards them and exploded on them, causing two of them to be injured as they were sent flying.
Instantly, the status quo was broken as the second group gained the advantage after thirty minutes of battling. His presence and attack made the crowd jump in awe. However, the second group, although sensed a bunch of incoming people, a third group, they also took advantage of this fact to break the first group’s defense that was cautious of the incoming third group.
“Attack quickly! They’re just fifteen people! Dwindle as many opponents as you can before they arrive!”
A green-robed woman in the second group commanded as she sent blades of wind fueled by her Perfect Domain against the first group. Her blades sliced through the air, fire, earth, and everything in its path before striking many, causing them to flinch back in defense.
This unknown vagrant cultivator caught the eyes of the crowd, making them wonder who were all these people who came out of nowhere. They were previously unheard of, but once the information arrived in front of them, they learned that they were cultivators with a humble origin but possessed moldable talent and had their lucky encounters to bring them up to this level.
Soon, the first group saw its first elimination as a woman turned into a white light and disappeared from the battle stage.
Everyone instantly understood that she admitted defeat, unable to defend against the flames and blade strikes by two heavy hitters and many others in the second group who forced their way into the ranks of the first group and attacked from blind spots and flanks. Following them, four more were ousted a few seconds later.
“!!!”
This maneuver had the whole crowd roaring in excitement as this was what they wanted as they were not tired of single move elimination. They wanted more! However, a command poured a bucket of water on their heads.
“Retreat!”
Knowing that the third group was almost near, the second group instantly tried to return to their teammates. Once the command entered the ears of the ones who forced their way into the first group, they delayed for a moment, thinking that it was a chance lost to eliminate more people as they had the advantage.
“You shall not move~”
But suddenly, a female voice entered their ears and reverberated insider their heads, causing them to freeze. Both the first group and the second group, more than fifty people simultaneously went stiff as if they had received heaven’s mandate, becoming unable to move.
*Boom!~*
Some attacks that were already launched ended up striking their opponents and destroying their defense, further injuring them.
The crowd’s eyes went wide as they saw this scene with a dumb look on their faces before they saw a few instances of white lights flashing before more people disappeared! The disappeared people ended up being thrown out of the spatial formation while they looked badly injured from various elements plaguing their flesh; one of them even seemed to have paralyzing mushrooms growing out of his open wound as there seemed to be a wood attribute cultivator amidst the second group.
“Ahhh! Break!!!”
Many screamed out of their lungs as they overwhelmed themselves with energy to break free from the restraint cast on them, and a few individuals successfully broke the spell. They were all wonderful cultivators with Perfect Domains, allowing them to come out of Clara’s restraints, but for the others, they were almost close to breaking out, but it was too late.
“Searing Purple Stream!”
“Nine Hell Sky Palm – Seven Waves!”
“Twisting Blaze Ash Wheel!~”
Logan raised his hands towards them and struck out with his energy that quickly turned into purple yang lightning and spread in a wide arc towards the others instead of a concentrated shot. Claire let out seven flaming palm strikes superimposed on each other at a target where people were populated the most, and two sisters, Niera and Nora, used the same attack from two sides, pinning down the retreating opponents with their blazing flame wheels shooting a torrent of flames towards them.
“Thousand Armament Flame Rain!~”
“Grazing Ice Shards!”
Sophie struck out with a plethora of armaments, ranging from hammers to swords, daggers to cauldrons, all heading towards the two groups, striking them without any mercy. Sharp icicles formed from Tanya Frostblight’s arms as they shot towards them all like Sophie’s armaments, intending to pierce through their flesh and nail them to the sandy plains.
“Daring Yang Glare!”
“Baleful Yin Swallow!”
Drake Blackburn’s eyes shone with a majestic golden light as the ones he had his eyes on instantly shut their eyes close, putting them in a hypnotized and anxious state that left them unable to be calm enough to understand what was going on while Kara Moonridge simultaneously threw her hand towards them when a yin aura erupted all over the place, making their footing in the air slippery as they felt a swampy area was sucking them in!
The plethora of attacks all struck the two groups at the same time while the Law Dominion Stage Youths who had come out of their restriction counterattacked!
*Booommmmm!!!~~~*
A large explosion resounded and filled the skies, making the projections the people viewed into one of a white screen.
“What!???~~~”
Numerous people in the crowd stood up, looking stupefied as they watched this scene!
The next moment came when a multitude of people was ejected from the spatial formation. One by one, they screamed as they landed on the ground, letting out moans and groans of pain while they twitched and struggled, trying to get rid of the energies haunting their flesh.
No one seemed to have died, but the people could see the number of people that had been thrown out numbered around fifty-two, which meant those who survived their attack were very few!
Four youths, the ones with the stronger Perfect Domains, retreated as they flew away with their top speed.
Clara and the others looked at them and didn’t bother to chase them because Esvele appeared from the other side and waved her hands.
“Encompassing Dual Phoenix Wings!”
Two blazing flames wisps turned into four wings. They formed in mid-air behind Esvele as they flapped against the four of them.
*Bang!~*
Their bodies ignited in Burning Phoenix Flames before the three Burning Phoenix Maidens took them on, finishing them off before they turned into white flashes of light and disappeared, becoming eliminated as they all fainted from suffering immense injuries.
The millions of people were stunned again as they saw that the first and second groups had been utterly decimated!
How did this group of fifteen, no, thirteen, manage to finish them off in an instant like they always did before!? Was it because they took advantage of the chaos between the two groups who were engaged in a battle first?
However, they were surprised to see a person survive this onslaught.
Indeed, a single person was frozen in hesitation, not knowing whether they should run or hold their position as they floated in mid-air. What was so peculiar about them was that they weren’t harmed or even attacked in the first place, making them think that the other party wasn’t necessarily trying to eliminate them.
Indeed, a person from Clara’s group stepped forward and flew towards that person with a smile on their face.
“Dalila, I’m surprised to see you possess a Perfect Domain…”
Dalila Leehan shook before she dropped her hands and relaxed, dropping her guard.
“My Thousand Pill Palace paid a bit of a heavy price, of course. Nora.”
