Badge in Azure

Chapter 1174: Duel of Water and Fire (Part 2)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The magic spell was derived from Saleen’s Water Flame Alchemy and only consumed Saleen’s mental power. Saleen’s elemental conversion and the might of the other five types of magic spells was undoubtedly powerful. However, the consumption of mental power was enormous, and the consumption of magic chords also could not be reduced by using skills.

Snowkill could be advanced. However, Saleen’s Water Flame Alchemy was level 10, and this newly derived magic spell was only at level 9.

It was the first time that Saleen did not take the initiative to create an advantage by attacking. Rather, he persuaded Kang Bai to use his toughest attacks to attain victory.

“Saleen, do you really want to die that much?” Kang Bai was angered. Saleen was showing disdain.

“I can’t possibly die. I am carrying out the will of fate.” A wave of starlight fell from the sky and penetrated the territory, enveloping his body.

“Constellation Wishing spell!”

Kang Bai recognized the skill. The Constellation Wishing spell was common. Although astrologers had disappeared, mages preserved pictures of some of the skills for them to refer to.

The Constellation Wishing spell was able to penetrate through territories, and could even ignore rules. It became one of astrologers’ favorite skills. It was different from the Wishing spell, which was one of the divine spells. The Constellation Wishing spell did not require astrologers to pay any cost in life. The skill increased an astrologer’s luck during a short period of time.

For example, even if Kang Bai were to use a level 11 instant death spell on Saleen now, Saleen would not be affected in any way.

Kang Bai saw that Saleen had utilized the Constellation Wishing spell and immediately knew that Saleen was definitely not as he was described in the data from Alchemy City. A person who was proficient in magic spells and astrologer skills was definitely not mediocre. Perhaps it was just that this person had not received any pointers from his teacher when he was young and he had had unstable foundations, hence his performance at Alchemy City had been so ordinary.

Kang Bai’s conjecture was not at all accurate, but this did not prevent him from developing feelings of fear towards the current Saleen.

With this kind of person, how would they possibly be afraid of Alchemy City, and how would they possibly show any mercy towards him!

In the blink of an eye, Kang Bai overturned all of his previous deductions. He retrieved the equipment he had borrowed from Alchemy City without any hesitation. A flower petal flew above his fingertips.

The flower petal was brilliant and dazzling, it was incomparably gorgeous. At the beginning there was only one petal. However, as the magic patterns on the broad wooden bangle on Kang Bai’s wrist all began to flow, the entire sky was covered in the colorful petals.

Saleen suddenly felt that the passage of life was truly uncontrollable. It had been a mere two seconds’ time, yet he felt that he had aged by at least a month or more. Such a tough and domineering piece of equipment caused all of Saleen’s hairs to stand on end.

In front of Saleen, the clan badge was suspended in the air, and a massive lightning bolt was shot out. He was long prepared, that once something similar to what was happening before him occured, to think of ways and means to stop Kang Bai.

Kang Bai’s equipment was indeed more menacing than he had expected. This piece of equipment was extremely famous, and it was a godly item that was refined by the Myers Goddess – Withering Dance.

When the flower petals descended from the sky, they had already changed from a splendid and vibrant appearance to a dry and withered state. The witheredness of each flower petal would take away a part of Saleen’s life energy. If not for the Figures of Fate which helped to withstand the damage for him, a level 10 mage like Saleen would not be able to survive under Withering Dance for more than three minutes.

And Kang Bai, who was on the edge of the flower rain, had absorbed a large amount of life energy. The wrinkles and his face seemed to have lessened a lot.

One Saleen’s clan badge came out, Kang Bai was even more terrified than Saleen. But he had released a godly item’s power, so he could not stop. This godly item’s power had already controlled the surrounding area of the square within a range of a few li. Apart from those who were sealed shut within the Magical Element Tower, the living creatures in all the other places had their life energy taken away.

Ordinary plants became completed withered within half a breath’s time, and even turned into ashes. Even constructed buildings were affected by Withering Dance. Cracks appeared on the walls and the inner parts began to decay.

With this square as the centre, the surrounding buildings began to collapse one by one, and the people within the buildings turned into bones.

Kang Bai paused within the flower rain. He had not at all thought that this godly item’s effects would be this horrifying. At this time, a massive current had been shot from Saleen’s clan badge.

The wooden bangle on Kang Bai’s wrist shone with a green light. It was not under Kang Bai’s control and directly flew to the skies. It wanted to hide from the current’s attack.

The massive current still graze Withering Dance. Saleen’s counterattack was too quick. After the current was shot, the flower rain at Kang Bai’s position had been stopped in the blink of an eye. From Kang Bai’s body, a huge fire ring was released. Under the power of the fire ring, his body moved furiously towards the side to dodge Saleen’s lightning bombardment.

Saleen’s lightning was not targeted and shot at him, his target was precisely that wooden bangle – Withering Dance.

Myers was a goddess of nature, she held life in her grasp. For anyone who she wanted to kill, their life would directly be taken away. And for anyone who she wanted to bless, they could completely be brought back to life after death. This Withering Dance was a godly item that she had bestowed upon her own disciples. If this skill was to fall into the Oracles’ hands and used by them, the whole of Pompeii would become a wasteland.

The lightning grazed past Withering Dance. Within the wooden bangle, a shrill howling sound broke through the silence of the entire city. Immediately the sound ceased abruptly, and the wooden bangle fell onto the ground.

Saleen felt that the Figure of Fate within his body had decayed, aged and died. There were still numerous flower petals in the sky, and with each petal that withered, more of his life energy would be taken away.

But at this time, Saleen was being enveloped in the flower rain and had no way to release any skills. As he had plenty of mental power, he could choose to release scrolls. However, his scrolls were basically all of an attack type, he did not have even one status type scroll. In other words, there was no way for Saleen to rely on skills to escape the envelopment of the flower rain.

“Myers!” Saleen screamed. The frequency of the screaming sound was the same as the Thundering Sound that he had cultivated.

This was a method that a mage would only utilize his magical power for in a helpless situation. The surrounding space was locked down by the flower rain. Within Saleen’s necklace, the 24 lightning dragons echoed the sound of Saleen’s scream and released growls that sounded like the roar of thunder.

Boom! Boom! Boooom...

Under the rumbling of the Thundering Sound, the magic chords within his body finally began to recover their ability to utilize elemental power. At this time however Saleen did not dare to use magic spells that were purely elemental. On the surface of his body, a gigantic water shield was propped up. On the surface of the water shield, flashes of lightning continuously shone. On the bubbles that were formed on the water shield, magic patterns were packed together and blocked this menacing divine spell skill.

The power that stole away life was sealed off on the outside of the water shield by the lightning. At this time Saleen propped up the water shield without holding back, and simultaneously began to recite the astrologers’ curse.

“The long rivers of fate, please return the life that belongs to me!” After Saleen’s voice has ended, from the sky, starlight condensed together to form a large star river which fiercely poured into Saleen’s body. Saleen could feel that his own Figure of Fate began to recover. All of the damage that it had received disappeared bit by bit, and the lapse of his own life had also stopped.

Kang Bai was anxious and uncertain. From his hands a wind dragon was release. It pounced towards the Withering Dance that had fallen onto the ground. This godly item was too important, if it was lost, he too would not be able to live on. The Elemental Hand supported him, but this did not mean that it could forgive him for losing such an important piece of equipment.

“Dream on!” Saleen had already taken damage, there was no way he could let Kang Bai retrieve that bangle. He raised his hand and shot out six icicles, leaving one for backup. The six lightning icicles formed a hexagon, cutting off all contact between Kang Bai and Withering Dance. One lightning icicle hit Withering Dance dead on. The bangle that was wrapped within the wind dragon fell to the ground, and the wind dragon disintegrated in the blink of an eye.

The other five lightning icicles directly headed towards Kang Bai.

Saleen originally wanted to use skills to have a duel to the death with Kang Bai. However, Kang Bai’s equipment had angered him. He already did not want to continue with such a battle.

On the surface of Kang Bai’s body, the gigantic fire ring once again expanded open. The defensive fire ring had reached level 10. It had already advanced to become a powerful magic spell with all properties that could both attack and defend.

However the lighting icicles were still able to penetrate the fire ring with no obstacles. Four of the lightning icicles pierced through Kang Bai’s arms and legs. Another one of the lightning icicles targeted and hit Kang Bai’s abdomen.

Today’s Saleen already had an extremely adept control over the lightning icicle’s power. The four lightning icicles in front directly broke Kang Bai’s four limbs with a violent force. At the places that were hit, at least half a chi or more of his limbs had disintegrated. Unless it was revived by a goddess of nature, otherwise these limbs would no longer grow back.

The final lightning icicle was unusually reserved. It was like a thin needle that pierced through Kang Bai’s abdomen. The lightning power caused all of Kang Bai’s magic spell skills to be unable to stop this harm. From his abdomen onwards, Kang Bai was frozen by the icicle, turning into a human shaped chunk of ice.

Saleen moved a step forward, catching Withering Dance in his hands. However his mood was still unable to calm down.

He recalled Sika’s warning. He had looked down on the power of other professions too much. If he had not had his clan badge, even his Thunder Dragon Blaster would have no way of stopping this divine spell.

Putting away the godly item created by the Myers Goddess into the Starline Ring, Saleen propped up the water shield that was filled with lightning patterns and currents, and escaped towards the Magical Element Tower. Although he was about to leave, he did not forget to use magic power to write a line of words in front of Kang Bai – Alchemy City, wait for my revenge.

Saleen entered the Magical Element Tower and quickly returned to the 16th floor. He sat down and continuously took all kings of magic medicines to stop the inertial injuries on his body. At the same time, he was using the power of constellation to stop damage that continued to be on Withering Dance. The Magical Element Tower completely cut off all damage from the outside world’s effects. Although Saleen only had level 9 astrology, he still went through the trouble to wipe them off from the body.

At this time, Sika had already rushed up. She could see extremely clearly that Saleen had been hit directly by a deadly skill. Sika could only sigh in relief and relax once she had seen Saleen. The state of Saleen’s injuries were hundreds and thousands of times lighter than what she had imagined. That bizarre piece of equipment had not gotten around the Figure of Fate, so it had not been able to descend upon Saleen’s body in its full force.

Even Jason had come over, looked at Saleen and asked, “Saleen, this time what have you learnt?”

“No matter how weak the opponent, I must deal with them with all my strength,” Saleen replied with a bitter smile.
