"Third update. I have no energy today. Fourth update tomorrow."
This was a spell derived from Salin's Water Flame Alchemy. It only consumed Salin's Spiritual Energy. Salin used Elemental Conversion to cast spells of the other five elements. While it was powerful, it also consumed a lot of Spiritual Energy. Similarly, the consumption of Magic String could not be reduced by skills.
Snow Kill was a spell that could be upgraded. However, Salin's Water Flame Alchemy was Level-10. This derived spell was only Level-9.
For the first time, Salin did not actively attack to create an advantage. Instead, he persuaded Kang Bai to use his strongest attack to determine the winner.
"Salin, do you really want to die so badly?" Kang Bai, the old sorcerer, was a little angry. This was Salin's contempt for him.
"I can't die. I carry the will of fate." After Salin finished speaking, a beam of starlight descended from the sky. It penetrated the territory and enveloped his body.
"Star Praying Art!"
Kang Bai actually recognized Salin's skill. In astrology, Star Prayer was considered a relatively common skill. Although astrologers had disappeared, mages would still keep some of the skills of astrologers as magical images for reference.
This Stars Prayer could penetrate territories and even ignore rules. That was why it was one of the favorite skills of astrologers. Different from the Divine Prayer, Stars Prayer did not require the astrologer to pay any price with his or her life. This skill would increase the astrologer's luck in a short period of time.
For example, even if Kang Bai used a Level-11 Instant Death Spell, Salin would not be affected.
Kang Bai saw Salin use Stars Prayer and immediately knew that Salin was not as described in the Alchemy City's information. A person who was proficient in magic and astrology skills was definitely not mediocre. This person might have only been mediocre in Alchemy City because he did not receive guidance from a teacher when he was young and did not have a stable foundation.
Kang Bai's calculations were not accurate at all. However, this did not stop him from being afraid of the current Salin.
Why would such a person be afraid of Alchemy City? Why would he show him mercy?
Kang Bai immediately overturned all his previous judgments. He took out the equipment he borrowed from Alchemy City without hesitation. On his fingertip, a petal flew up.
The petals were dazzling and beautiful. At first, there was only one, but as the mageweaths on the wide wooden bracelet on Kang Bai's wrist started to flow, the entire sky was covered by these colorful petals.
Salin suddenly felt his life slipping away uncontrollably. In just two Zhen's time, he felt that he had aged at least a month. Such powerful equipment made Salin's hair stand on end.
In front of Salin, the family crest floated in the air, and a thick bolt of lightning shot out. He had prepared for a long time. Once something like this happened, he would think of a way to stop Kang Bai.
As expected, Kang Bai's equipment was unexpectedly powerful. This equipment was very famous. It was a divine tool refined by Goddess Myers – Dance of Withering.
When the petals fell from the sky, they had already withered from their most dazzling appearance. Each withered petal took away some of Salin's life energy. If it wasn't for the Destiny Puppet blocking the damage for him, a level-10 mage like Salin wouldn't have lasted more than three minutes in the Dance of Withering.
In the rain of flowers, Kang Bai absorbed a large amount of life energy, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to have lessened.
When Salin's family crest appeared, Kang Bai was even more afraid than Salin. But he couldn't stop releasing the power of the divine tool. The power of the divine tool had already controlled the area several miles around the square. Apart from the sealed Elemental Magic Tower, the life energy of all living beings in other places was taken away.
Ordinary flowers and plants completely withered in half a breath, and some even turned to ashes. Even the buildings were affected by the Dance of Withering. Cracks appeared on the walls, and the insides began to rot.
With the square as the center, the surrounding houses collapsed one by one, and the people inside turned into bones.
Kang Bai was stunned in the rain of flowers. He didn't expect the effect of this divine tool to be so terrifying. At this time, a thick bolt of electricity shot out from Salin's family crest.
The wooden bracelet on Kang Bai's wrist shone with a green radiance. Out of Kang Bai's control, it flew into the air, trying to avoid the electric attack.
That thick bolt of electricity still brushed past the Dance of Withering. Salin's counterattack was too fast, and the rain of flowers instantly stopped where Kang Bai was. Kang Bai's body released a huge ring of fire, and his body fiercely moved to the side under the power of the ring of fire, dodging Salin's lightning attack.
Salin's lightning wasn't aimed at him, but at the wooden bracelet — Dance of Withering.
Myers was the Goddess of Nature, and she controlled life. Those she wanted to kill would have their lives taken away, and those she wanted to bless could be brought back to life. This Dance of Withering was a divine tool she bestowed upon her believers. If this skill was used in the hands of an Oracle, all of Pompei would become a land of death.
The lightning brushed past the Dance of Withering, and a mournful howl cut through the silence of the entire city from the wooden bracelet. Then, the sound stopped abruptly, and the wooden bracelet fell to the ground.
Salin felt the Destiny Puppet in his body decaying, aging, and dying. There were still tens of thousands of petals in the sky, and each withering petal was taking away his life energy.
But at this time, Salin couldn't use any skills under the cover of the rain of flowers. His mental strength was sufficient, so he could use scrolls, but they were basically all offensive scrolls, and he didn't have any status scrolls. In other words, Salin couldn't rely on skills to get rid of the rain of flowers.
"Myers!" Salin roared, and the frequency of his roar matched the sound of thunder that he practiced.
This was a method that mages used when they had no other choice. The surrounding space was locked by the rain of flowers, and within Salin's necklace, the twenty-four thunder dragons followed Salin's roar and let out thunderous roars.
Boom! Boom! Rumble …
Under the shock of the sound of thunder, the magic strings in Salin's body finally recovered the power to mobilize the elements. Salin didn't dare to use pure elemental magic at this time. On the surface of his body, a huge Water Shield was propped up. The surface of the shield flickered with lightning, and the dense magic patterns on the bubble formed by the Water Shield blocked this powerful divine skill.
The power to rob life was blocked by the lightning outside the Water Shield. At this time, Salin propped up the Water Shield without holding back, and at the same time began to chant an astrologer's incantation.
"River of fate, please return the life that belongs to me!" As Salin's voice ended, the starlight in the sky condensed into a thick river of stars, and violently poured into Salin's body. Salin felt that his Destiny Puppet was starting to recover, and the damage it had received disappeared bit by bit. His life also stopped flowing away.
Kang Bai was still in shock, but he released a wind dragon from his hand and pounced towards the Dance of Withering on the ground. This divine weapon was too important. If it was lost, he wouldn't be able to live. The Elemental Hand supported him, but that didn't mean they would forgive him for losing such an important piece of equipment.
"In your dreams!" Salin was already injured, how could he let Kang Bai take the bracelet back? He raised his hand and shot out six Ice Awls, leaving only one as a backup. The six Ice Awls formed a hexagonal shape, cutting off all contact between Kang Bai and the Dance of Withering. One Ice Awl hit the Dance of Withering, and the bracelet wrapped around the wind dragon fell to the ground, and the wind dragon instantly disintegrated.
The other five Ice Awls went straight for Kang Bai.
Salin originally wanted to use skills to fight to the death with Kang Bai, but Kang Bai's equipment made him angry. He didn't want to continue this kind of battle.
On the surface of Kang Bai's body, the huge ring of fire expanded once again. The Resistance Ring of Fire had reached Level-10, and had already advanced into a powerful all-element spell, capable of both offense and defense.
But the Ice Awls still penetrated the ring of fire without any hindrance. Four of the Ice Awls shot off Kang Bai's arms and legs, and the last one hit Kang Bai's lower abdomen.
By now, Salin was very adept at controlling the icicles. The violent power of the first four icicles directly broke Kang Bai's limbs. Wherever they hit, at least half a foot of limbs were disintegrated by the lightning. Unless the Goddess of Nature was resurrected, these limbs wouldn't be able to grow back.
The last Ice Awl was unusually reserved. Like a thin needle, it penetrated Kang Bai's lower abdomen. The power of the lightning made all of Kang Bai's spells unable to stop the damage. Kang Bai was frozen from the lower abdomen by the Ice Awl, turning into a human-shaped block of ice.
Salin took a step forward and grabbed the Dance of Withering in his hand, but he still couldn't calm down.
He remembered Silva's warning that he had underestimated the abilities of other professionals. If he didn't have the family badge, even his Thunder Dragon Spear wouldn't be able to stop this divine spell.
Putting this divine weapon made by Goddess Myers into the star ring, Salin held up the Water Shield covered in lightning and electricity, and fled to the Elemental Magic Tower. Before leaving, he didn't forget to use magic to write a line in front of Kang Bai — Alchemy City, wait for my revenge.
Salin entered the Elemental Magic Tower and quickly returned to the 16th floor. He sat down and kept taking all kinds of magic potions to stop the damage to his body. At the same time, he was using the power of the stars to stop the Dance of Withering from continuing the damage. The Elemental Magic Tower completely cut off the influence of the outside world. Although Salin only had Level-9 Astrology, he still got rid of the trouble from his body.
At this time, Silva had already rushed down. She saw very clearly that Salin had been hit by a fatal skill. When she saw Salin, Silva heaved a sigh of relief. Salin's injury was a thousand times lighter than she had imagined. That strange equipment didn't bypass the Puppet of Fate, and couldn't land all its power on Salin's body.
Even Jason walked down and looked at Salin. He asked, "Salin, what did you learn this time?"
