Chapter 2687 Fearsome True Spirit Five Changes!
Chapter 2687 Fearsome True Spirit Five Changes!
Curtain of Wings was a defensive form produced when the Victory Fish dissolved into water and ensnared water-elemental energy.
When it is hit by external attacks, it can absorb the attack and transform it into energy that it will store.
This defensive ability also had endurance effects, enabling the Victory Fish to take on multiple opponents.
One Curtain of Wings would be enough to turn the tide in a battle.
But when it used Revived Wings, it would be able to grow more wings. When it grew more wings when it already had a pair, it would only require half of the initial amount of energy.
Given a fey with the Barren bloodline's store of energy, it would be able to put up four Curtain of Wings in a battle without much effort.
Sea Disaster was a range-based curse ability. Other lifeforms in the water where the Victory Fish was located would all be cursed.
The Victory Fish had many curse effects and would eventually cause the other lifeforms to wither and die.
The longer the lifeforms were under the effects of the curses, the more their battle abilities would fall.
Victory Arrow would allow the Victory Fish to do combat with water elements. Every jet of water it produced was extremely powerful and would also carry curse effects when they made contact with the target.
Although the feys that flew in the sky would not be cursed by the Victory Fish that was in the sea, they would be affected by the curse once they were hit by one of the Victory Arrows.
The Platinum ability Heavenly Water Stamp was the Victory Fish's main endurance ability.
The more lifeforms there were in the sea, the quicker the Victory Fish's vitality would be replenished.
In a battle between Long Tao and Liu Jie, this ability would be a godsend for Long Tao. But with Lin Yuan, Heavenly Water Stamp was rather useless!
Lin Yuan was skilled at individual combat and would not send out many feys at once to engage in attrition warfare.
The Victory Fish's Diamond ability, Victorious Water Mist, was both a lethal and healing ability. Just like Heavenly Water Stamp, it was a replenishing ability that was suited for taking on many enemies at once.
It would also be able to heal the Victory Fish when it was only facing a few enemies. However, the healing effects would be greatly discounted.
Victorious Water Mist would allow the Victory Fish's combat techniques to extend past water regions.
The water mist would be dispersed in the air, turning the sky into the Victory Fish's battleground as well.
Victorious Body Transformed Arrows would strengthen Victory Arrows.
Victory Arrow controlled the water in the surroundings while Victorious Body Transformed Arrows would turn the Victory Fish's body into streams of water in the shape of arrows that would attack the enemy.
The curse effects would result in a deadly effect when the Victory Fish's body was deconstructed. There was a chance that the attack would immediately kill the target.
The exclusive skill Double Life Arrows strengthened the effects of Victory Arrow and Victorious Body Transformed Arrows. During each attack, the energy in the surroundings would be used to cause double damage to the target.
An exclusive skill like this was very rare.
This exclusive skill could double the impact of the attack. It was likely that such an ability would only be seen in feys with the Barren bloodline.
The Victory Fish's Myth Breed exclusive skill was called Victory Forms Secret Stone.
Victory Forms Secret Stone and the Suzerain ability Victorious Body Transformed Arrows could be linked.
Normally, due to the deconstruction effects of Victorious Body Transformed Arrows, the Victory Fish would be killed. But with the exclusive skill Victory Forms Secret Stone, the Victory Fish could be revived by eating the victory stone, allowing it to rejoin the battle.
Lin Yuan had a complete understanding of every one of the Victory Fish's abilities.
Long Tao was currently planning on using the Victory Fish to ambush Lin Yuan and Blackie.
It went without saying that Lin Yuan would not give Long Tao the opportunity to do so. Instead, he was going to use Long Tao's battle plans to counter him!
By now, mist was already draping over the surface of the sea. Lin Yuan knew that the Victory Fish had used Victorious Water Mist.
However, this mist would not be able to affect Blackie's vision or cause it any damage.
Lin Yuan raised his hand and summoned Chimey. Chimey appeared next to Lin Yuan with a burst of beautiful sacred fire. All clouds in a 15-kilometer radius around Chimey were rapidly evaporated.
With a soft cry, tens of thousands of sparrows formed from musical notes appeared and began flying around Chimey.
Once he summoned the Victory Fish, Long Tao no longer had any other combat moves he could utilize. Even if he ended up losing his battle, he would put up a good fight!
Long Tao was well aware that neither Chimey nor the black-clawed dragon were Lin Yuan's secret weapons. But he had already played his final card by summoning the Victory Fish.
Long Tao was at a disadvantage in this battle, but he was a strategy specialist.
Long Tao ordered the Victory Fish to use Victorious Body Transformed Arrows to attack Lin Yuan.
All was fair in love and war. Long Tao knew that if he could kill Lin Yuan instantaneously, he would be able to win this battle.
However, not only did Lin Yuan not give Long Tao the chance to do so, but he could even see the Victory Fish's underwater movements with complete clarity.
Lin Yuan issued a battle order to Blackie through his mind.
Blackie used True Spirit Five Changes. It released its claws, and each claw turned into a split body.
The split bodies possessed Blackie's full abilities and would not disappear after they were attacked. They could be considered invincible.
Each time the bodies were destroyed, Blackie could produce new ones by using spiritual power.
True Spirit Five Changes was an exclusive skill of clawed dragons. But this ability only manifested in five-clawed dragons.
With the inclusion of Blackie's main body, there were now six five-clawed dragons flying in the sky.
The five-clawed dragons stormed the sea and used Spirit Essence Explosion while clustering around the Victory Fish.
The Victory Fish did not even have the chance to emerge from the surface of the water.
Blackie's split bodies rushed to take on both Victory Arrow and Victorious Body Transformed Arrows without fear of death.
Once the split bodies produced by True Spirit Five Changes were destroyed, new ones formed. This left Long Tao in disbelief.
He thought that the Victory Fish was exceptionally formidable. But now, it seemed that it was not as strong as he thought!
Lin Yuan did not summon his fey with the Barren bloodline He had managed to overwhelm the Victory Fish with just a regular fey.
However, as a true five-clawed dragon, Lin Yuan's fey was extremely valuable and had the same standard of merit as a fey with the Barren bloodline!
The longer he fought the ferocious Blackie, the braver Long Tao became. However, he also had an increasingly strong feeling that something was wrong.
The Victory Fish had already activated four Curtain of Wings. It had absorbed a significant amount of energy from the repeated attacks from Blackie's five split bodies. But it was as though this five-clawed dragon had an endless supply of energy!
Meanwhile, the Victory Fish's store of energy was about to run out.
The Victory Fish would only be able to handle around ten more attacks from the five-clawed dragon before it ran out of energy and could no longer put up a defense.
Star Web's commentators and hosts were currently animatedly and passionately narrating the battle.
None of them were faking their emotions.
These Star Web hosts and commentators rarely had the chance to narrate such a high-quality battle.
Feys with the Barren bloodline were iconic of the Radiance Federation.
They were always shrouded in mystery and rarely made an appearance.
But the power demonstrated by the Victory Fish seemed to pale in comparison to Blackie.
But those who were intelligent knew that this was because the Victory Fish was battling a five-clawed dragon that belonged to Lin Yuan. Any other fey would already have been crushed to pieces by the Victory Fish's attacks.
Poison Beauty and Lu Shuang's live streams were exploding with popularity.
Lu Shuang was already very popular. But after the battle with Black, her popularity skyrocketed to a new level.
Poison Beauty's popularity had been rather mild previously. But she managed to emerge as a dark horse with her eloquence and forked tongue.
However, it was difficult for small hosts to make it into the big leagues and gain popularity with the masses.
Poison Beauty only gained more attention after being matched with Lin Yuan multiple times and leveraging his popularity.
Eventually, she managed to be signed by the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce and became an auctioneer on Star Web! She was in charge of auctioning off the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce's luxury goods on Star Web.
Listen had noticed Poison Beauty's potential and gave her a helping hand. She also put in effort and, with opportune factors in her favor, managed to become one of the biggest hosts.
She eventually became Star Web's biggest host that year and was specially invited by Star Web's officials to live stream and host the battles.
Poison Beauty understood her role and knew how important this event was. She did not try to incorporate any performance effects. Rather, she stuck to doing what she did best and seriously analyzed the battles.
"Everyone, please try not to send comments while the battles are ongoing. Only post comments if you have legitimate questions! That will make it easier for me to answer all your questions! Just now, someone asked why a fey with the Barren bloodline can't seem to beat a regular fey.
"Let me correct this perspective. The fey that Lord Lin Yuan is using is not a run-of-the-mill fey. It is a true main dragon and a five-clawed dragon to boot! Main-dragon-species feys are highly revered. It cannot be viewed as a regular fey.
"I never thought that a Myth II fey's bloodline could reach such a level. A fey's strength is determined by how it was nurtured. Long Tao's fey with the Barren bloodline is very strong, and there are very few members of the younger generation who can compete with him. But it is evident that Lord Lin Yuan's fey is slightly stronger.
"I don't think there is any uncertainty about the outcome of this battle. Lord Lin Yuan hasn't used his signature sparrow. All it has been doing is staying by his side to protect him."
In Poison Beauty's previous live streams, she had lavished praise on Lin Yuan in order to gain more attention. This eventually turned into a habit.
However, she was not trying to do that now.
The formidability that Lin Yuan had displayed was undeniable.
Long Tao laughed wryly. The Victory Fish had burned to the end of its wick while fighting the clawed dragon. It could not fight anymore!
Long Tao did not bother to push on with a meaningless battle. Instead, he raised his hand before slamming it down forcefully. This was the way that the members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence signaled that they were surrendering.
If they continued fighting, it would only end with the Victory Fish being pulverized by the five-clawed dragon.
Long Tao knew of the power of a clawed dragon's claws and tail.
Without the defense from the ability Curtain of Wings, any attack that made contact with the Victory fish would break apart its scales and leave a bloody hole in its body.
There was still one thing that Long Tao did not understand, which was how the clawed dragon managed to possessed such strong endurance. It did not show any signs of weakening even after launching repeated attacks!
Normally, a Myth II dragon-species fey would not have so much energy to spare.
Long Tao had no idea that Lin Yuan had been using Blackie as a support fey.
This battle established Blackie's prowess.
After a vicious battle, Blackie let out a comfortable cry before flying over to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan leaped up onto Blackie's back and rode the five-clawed dragon up to the sky before looking down at the stone pillars around him.
As the victor, Lin Yuan could pick his next opponent.
Despite being summoned by Lin Yuan, Chimey had yet to participate in the combat. It sulkily flapped its wings next to Lin Yuan and let out a woeful cry to express how it was feeling.
Lin Yuan soothed Chimey while looking over at Xia Qing.
Lin Yuan knew that Xia Qing was very strong. Zong Ze and Gu Lang both mentioned that they had lost to her in combat.
However, Lin Yuan had never fought with Xia Qing before. He did not even know what feys Xia Qing had.
Lin Yuan had no idea that while he was looking at Chimey, his action of leaping onto Blackie's back had come across so dashing that he had stupefied many spectators. Lin Yuan was much more gallant than that member of the Radiance Hundred Sequence who had tried to act suave!
Xia Qing and Lin Yuan locked eyes. She stood up before Lin Yuan even called out her name. She fixed her fiery gaze on him and waved her fists, signaling that she was going to do her best in the battle.
Lin Yuan smiled. That was exactly what he wanted.
Chimey had yet to participate in a battle since evolving to Myth Breed. Lin Yuan intended to use Chimey in the battle against Xia Qing.
If Chimey was overwhelmed during the fight with Xia Qing, Lin Yuan would send out other feys in accordance with Xia Qing's feys.
After Xia Qing stood up, Lin Yuan yelled out Xia Qing's name to Liu Wencheng. They still needed to go along with the process.
Just like Long Tao, Xia Qing summoned her fey after entering the arena.
Lin Yuan suddenly felt a powerful force pressing down on him. The pressure almost caused his heart to burst out of his chest!
