This scene made Ji Chen furrow his brows.
Damn it, are they always this stubborn with their resurrections?
Apart from these persistent resurrections, some demonized double-winged demons had even resurrected four or five times. If the soul slaves still had any emotions left, they would probably be cursing by now.
If this continued, with each revival, their side would lose more and more ground, no matter how many of them there were.
He must capture the leader first. Ji Chen set his gaze on the Temple Dark Acolyte.
You can resurrect your minions, huh? Well, let’s see if you can resurrect yourself.
“Tyrant Azure Dragons, attack and stop the Temple Dark Acolyte, unleash full firepower!”
The Tyrant Azure Dragons, which had been conserving its strength, casually flicked its tail. Its massive body seemed to ignore the resistance of water, darting forward like an arrow leaving the bowstring. It unleashed a terrifying blast of icy breath, freezing everything in its path with bone-chilling cold.
Amos Temple Dark Acolyte’s face slightly changed. A dark aura emanated from its bone staves, enveloping it. In the next moment, the icy breath froze it in a large block of ice.
But before they could rejoice, cracks appeared on the ice, and it exploded amid a surge of seawater.
It revealed Temple Dark Acolyte inside.
Ji Chen didn’t look disappointed. It would be strange if it were severely injured or killed just like that.
But as a fifth-tier military unit, the Tyrant Azure Dragon’s signature attack was not entirely ineffective; the Temple’s Dark Acolyte visibly weakened.
“Keep attacking!”
The nine Tyrant Azure Dragons followed one another, each exhaling a breath capable of shattering souls.
Every time the Temple’s Dark Acolyte attempted to move, it was frozen by a mouthful of breath. Helplessly breaking free from the ice, it was immediately frozen again by the next breath.
The seamless coordination among the nine Tyrant Azure Dragons resulted in an extremely long-lasting continuous control.
At this moment, the Temple’s Dark Acolyte felt extremely frustrated. Although the breath’s damage was not significant, it was immensely humiliating.
As a dignified guardian of the temple, it was being toyed with by a lowly human.
This ignorant human had to pay the price!
After being frozen by another breath, the Temple’s Dark Acolyte didn’t break free as it did before. Instead, it appeared lifeless, as if it had lost the strength to break free.
Seeing this, the Tyrant Azure Dragons stopped in their tracks, circling around the large block of ice.
Ji Chen was momentarily stunned. Could it be that the Temple’s Dark Acolyte would be killed by being frozen alive like this?
This seemed a bit too easy; he hadn’t even taken action yet!
However, in the next moment, Ji Chen realized it was a trap!
He wanted the Tyrant Azure Dragons to continue using their breath attacks, but it was already too late.
In an instant, the frozen ice, which had been still just moments ago, shattered open. Out of it emerged dozens of thick, black, spiked tendrils, each as wide as tree trunks, that rapidly ensnared the nearby Tyrant Azure Dragons. Without warning, they constricted tightly around it.
Roar!
The Tyrant Azure Dragons emitted a painful cry, attempting to break free from the tendrils’ grasp. However, these tendrils, like those of a giant octopus, clung firmly to them, their sharp thorns piercing deep into their flesh, draining their life force.
The more it struggled, the tighter the tendrils constricted, causing even more agony.
When it tried to exhale an icy breath towards the tendrils, a black light on the outer edge of the tendrils blocked it.
The Temple’s Dark Acolyte emerged from the shattered ice, holding its bone staff high, a fanatical and angry expression on its face.
“Damnable human, 1 will imprison your soul here!”
“Let you taste the pain of being whipped for ten thousand years!”
The bone staff flashed, and more than ten tendrils pierced through dozens of demonized winged demons and soul servants without distinction and shot towards Ji Chen.
Ji Chen’s expression remained unchanged. He raised his right hand, and in front of him, more than ten overlapping water shields formed. Each one was strong enough to withstand a direct cannon blast.
Boom!
The tendrils pierced through the first few water shields without any obstacles, but their speed slightly decreased as they pierced through the subsequent ones. When they passed through the last one, however, they didn’t find Ji Chen’s figure.
The Temple’s Dark Acolyte looked left and right, alarm bells ringing in its mind. It swung its bone staff once more.
Black mist gushed out and coalesced into a dark gray shield around it.
In the next moment, dozens of blades made of iron-like water suddenly appeared from the side and swiftly struck the shield. However, they were all deflected.
The Temple’s Dark Acolyte, with a hint of disdain in its eyes, said, “Ignorant human, back when I fought alongside my god in the divine war, you were probably clueless about your whereabouts. These feeble tricks won’t work on me.
Struggle as much as you like; this way, you will gradually experience despair, and your soul will become even more delicious.”
In the distance, Ji Chen’s expression grew solemn.
This enemy was the most formidable one he had encountered since becoming a Tidal Dominator.
Apart from the initial surprise attack by the Tyrant Azure Dragons, which had frozen him continuously, the enemy’s decisions had been flawless.
Whether it was combat prowess or combat awareness, they were outstanding.
However, the more formidable the enemy, the stronger Ji Chen’s competitive spirit burned.
You’re strong, but as long as 1 defeat you, it means I’m even stronger.
Besides, even if you’ve participated in some so-called divine war, there’s no reason why 1 can’t defeat you, a weakened follower of evil, right?
After a moment of contemplation, Ji Chen decided to utilize his greatest strength: saturation strikes!
He raised both hands, and a surge of mana rolled within him. Various water-based weapons began to form behind him, each one crafted from gentle seawater and infused with mana to become deadly instruments of destruction.
One hundred, five hundred, over a thousand of these water weapons.
The densely packed water weapons resembled an army formation, neatly arranged behind him.
At a glance, it was a spectacular sight.
It wasn’t until the number reached a staggering three thousand that Ji Chen’s eyes subtly shifted. The weapons, like arrows strung on a bow, suddenly shot forth.
Boom.
Boom.
One, ten, a hundred.
The water weapons, one after another, slammed into the Temple’s Dark Acolyte’s shield. The energy released upon impact churned the surrounding seawater into a turbid mess, with no room for dispersion.
At first, the Temple’s Dark Acolyte’s expression was nonchalant. However, gradually, it became more serious.
Damn, this human has an unusually vast reservoir of mana.
If it were back during the divine war, at the peak of its power, dealing with such an opponent would have been effortless.
But with the passage of time, even though it spent most of it in a dormant state, it couldn’t escape the erosion of time. Most of its strength had waned.
Now, it could only exert twenty percent of its former power at best.
And this human, it seemed, was no ordinary opponent…
As it looked closer, its expression suddenly turned horrified.
“You carry their bloodline! I didn’t expect that you would survive too!
Since it’s you, then you must also possess the bloodline of that race.”
It turned its gaze to Alice, and a trace of expectation flickered in its eyes.
“I understand now. You wish to destroy my god’s chance of returning? It’s a futile hope. My god is the only true deity in the world, and no one can stop its return!”
“Anyone who dares to obstruct will have their souls cursed for eternity!”
Listening to its seemingly nonsensical, fanatical words, Ji Chen furrowed his brow.
What bloodline?
What return?
Had this Temple’s Dark Acolyte gone mad from too much solitude?
If that was the case, then please die quickly and stop disturbing the peace.
With that thought, Ji Chen’s mind surged with more mana, continuously forming water weapons that rained down on the enemy’s shield like a storm.
No matter how strong the shield was, there would come a day when it would crack.
Under countless attacks, cracks resembling spiderwebs appeared on the shield, forcing the Temple’s Dark Acolyte to retract its tendrils that had been restraining the Tyrant Azure Dragons and focus all its energy on maintaining the shield.
The freed Tyrant Azure Dragons immediately distanced themselves, covered in wounds from the tendrils, its life force nearly drained.
Inside the shield, as if realizing something, the Temple’s Dark Acolyte’s face showed a fanatical and resolute expression.
“If I can destroy you here, perhaps 1 can reduce the obstacles to my god’s return.”
“My great god! Please sow the seeds of destruction in this world and reshape its order and rules!”
Watching the Temple’s Dark Acolyte’s demeanor, Ji Chen couldn’t help but feel a chill creeping into his heart..
