Chapter 249: Chapter 164: The Vast Gap Is Clear at a Glance
“Damn it!”
Witnessing the ashes restore their arm and charge again, the staff had no choice but to grit their teeth and meet the attack.
He knew very well the opponent’s goal was to exhaust him and the Traveler’s strength.
Once they showed signs of defeat, Yiluo, hidden in the shadows, would strike them viciously like a venomous snake.
As for Puedo and Moss, he had already automatically excluded them from consideration.
Whether it’s the Flame Giant-like ashes or the elusive Yiluo, neither of them had the means to deal with it. Their only role was to help bear some of the attacks from the ashes.
“Hahaha, it’s useless, you are not our opponents at all!”
The maniacal laughter of the ashes echoed through the cave, shaking rock fragments down the cave walls.
Boom!
A punch from the ashes landed on the Traveler, causing a flash of cyan light on his body, offsetting the attack, before quickly dimming.
At the same time, the Traveler felt a sudden daze, as if a pair of bright blue eyes appeared before him.
He felt a chill down his spine, bit down hard on his tongue, and quickly regained his senses, channeling Spiritual Power into the Cyan Spirit Branch.
As the cyan light burst forth, the dizziness vanished instantly.
“Damn it!”
The Traveler cursed inwardly, thinking how pervasive the woman’s Illusion Technique was. As long as there was a slight flaw on their side, they would immediately fall into the trap.
If this continues, their side is doomed to defeat.
He turned his head to look at the staff, just in time to meet the staff’s gaze.
As their eyes met, they instantly understood each other’s plan.
Without hesitation, the Traveler and the staff simultaneously dashed off in opposite directions.
The ashes hesitated for a moment, slightly pausing.
Which one to chase?
Or should he split up with Yiluo to pursue them separately?
But doing so would break the cooperation between him and Yiluo.
In a one-on-one situation, he wasn’t sure he could ensure capturing either the staff or the Traveler.
But he didn’t have to hesitate for long.
In the midst of a deep roaring, a fierce wind appeared out of nowhere, sweeping through the entire cave.
At this moment, both the staff and the Traveler, as well as Puedo and Moss, paused for a moment, a look of confusion in their eyes.
“Haha, Yiluo, it’s up to you!”
The ashes laughed heartily, reaching out to grab Puedo and Moss, his massive flaming hands clamping down, instantly turning them into a heap of charcoal.
Immediately after, he strode rapidly to catch up with the Traveler, and with a punch, sent him flying next to the staff.
The staff and the Traveler managed to break free from the illusion, only to see a circle of intense flames surrounding them, sealing them in tightly.
Facing this scene, their hearts sank.
The woman lurking in the shadows had unpredictable Illusion Technique abilities that were impossible to defend against.
Without finding a way to eliminate her first, neither escaping nor killing the ashes would be possible.
Yet the woman refused to show herself, remaining hidden; they were powerless even if they wanted to confront her.
“Stop struggling, accept your fate, and suffer less!”
The ashes’ mocking voice rang out of the encircling flames from all directions.
The staff and the Traveler ignored him, about to attempt escape when a sudden roar rang in their ears.
Following the sound, they saw the barrier of fire suddenly burst open, and a figure charged in.
Upon recognizing the person, the staff and the Traveler’s faces immediately lit up with joy.
“Sunan!”
Sunan glanced at the staff and the Traveler, then quickly surveyed the surroundings.
These flames… they must be from the Wizard Apprentice called Ashes from the Eternal Life Association.
“It’s you!”
The surrounding flames slightly paused, the ashes’ deep voice sounded, quickly growing more intense.
“Perfect timing, I’ll deal with you too!”
With Yiluo secretly assisting him, even facing three Wizards Apprentices of the same rank at once, the ashes felt confident of victory.
With maniacal laughter, flames of fury descended like a torrential flood upon the three of them.
At the same time, a strange wave also enveloped the trio.
Sunan felt a flicker in his vision, as countless phantom water ghosts with disheveled hair appeared out of thin air, charging at him frantically.
“Illusion Technique, is it?”
Sunan immediately realized, no wonder the staff and the Traveler had been suppressed two against one; there was an enemy secretly attacking them just now.
It must be the woman named Yiluo, rumored to be skilled in Illusion Techniques.
Although he knew it was an Illusion Technique, Sunan could still feel the chilling fear and the dense Negative Energy aura from the water ghost apparitions.
This is the true power of Illusion Techniques!
No matter how much you know it’s an illusion, if you can’t break it, the damage can become real.
Without hesitation, Sunan activated a blood-red mark on the back of his hand, one of which shone brightly and then faded.
Simultaneously, a dull, thunderous bell rang out of nowhere, resounding throughout the cave.
The water ghosts rushing at Sunan seemed to hit something in an instant, screaming before they disintegrated into smoke.
A figure staggered out from the shadows at the corner of the cave, clutching her chest, with pain in her bright blue eyes.
This was none other than Yiluo.
The Funeral Bell Mark’s Sonic Attack indiscriminately affected all sides.
Although the staff and the Traveler were affected, they were farther away and defended by the Golden Staff and Cyan Spirit Branch, only feeling mildly uncomfortable.
But Yiluo, who was directly targeting Sunan with her Illusion Technique, received the full brunt of the soul impact carried by the sound wave and was severely injured at once.
