Suddenly, a red light flashed from the Evil Eye's pupil. In the distance, Gao Yingjie's body also immediately lit up with a red glow.
Gao Yingjie didn't move, nor was he surprised. Calmly smiling, he said, "Eye of Truth? Your Evil Eye is only in its growth stage. It's still far from being able to see through my cultivation. "
Long Haochen and Han Yu looked at each other, then took large strides, simultaneously charging towards Gao Yingjie. As they moved, the rest of the team also moved.
Wang Yuanyuan quickly stuffed her three gems into the Divine Soul Shield. Sima Xian gave a loud shout, his aura suddenly increasing. Holding the staff in his hand, he followed Long Haochen's other side and simultaneously charged out. In the process of charging, his muscles suddenly swelled, Berserk Transformation.
Cai'Er, whose hand was originally held by Long Haochen, disappeared at this moment.
Haoyue's three heads simultaneously raised, Little Light and Little Fire unceasingly emitting low, whimpering chants, while Little Green spat out two rays of cyan light, one falling on Chen Ying'er and the other Lin Xin. At the same time, the two's bodies floated slightly, Haoyue had already carried them on its body. Four hooves flying, it charged forward after Long Haochen and the others.
In Chen Ying'er's hand, that huge crystal ball had already appeared once again. Her chants were clear and melodious, as if she was singing.
Lin Xin sat in front of her, the Fire Cloud Crystal Staff in his hand raised. As he rapidly chanted, almost viscous fire elements surged out. It had to be said that Lin Xin's control of magic and affinity with magic elements far surpassed that of Huang Yi, who had an earth elemental spirit. Without the help of an elemental spirit, relying on the Fire Cloud Crystal Staff, his casting speed was even faster than Huang Yi's.
Long Haochen and the others each had their own movements. On the other side, Gao Yingjie acted as if he didn't see any of this and remained unmoving.
Under Charge, Long Haochen and Han Yu's speed was about the same as Sima Xian's Berserk state. The three of them arrived in front of Gao Yingjie almost at the same time.
Seeing that he was less than ten meters away from Gao Yingjie, Long Haochen suddenly let out a loud shout. A white light moved from his chest and shot out like a bolt of lightning, landing on Gao Yingjie's body.
The Saint Spiritual Stove's first ability, Traction.
Gao Yingjie didn't seem to be surprised by this at all. However, he still moved. Taking a step forward, he landed on the ground as steady as a mountain. In that instant, the ground of the Knight's training grounds shook violently. The ordinary iron heavy sword in his right hand instantly turned into a dazzling gold as he slashed at Long Haochen.
Taking a step forward, raising his shield, Long Haochen's figure instantly froze. Like a statue, he canceled Charge and steadily stood there. The Holy Spirit Shield shone with a white light. It was the Holy Light Seeping Shield and Divine Block being used at the same time.
At the same time, a total of five layers of light shone on his body.
The first to shine was the Holy Light Cover on Long Haochen's own Holy Light Bracer. The second layer was the second layer of Holy Light Cover released by Han Yu at his side. Next up were three balls of magical light.
Two fire-type magic shields and one light-type magic shield shot out from behind, simultaneously landing on Long Haochen's body. This Tier 5 Defense, coupled with the two layers of Holy Light Shields, instantly created five thick layers of defensive skills for Long Haochen.
The three layers of magical shields were naturally Xiao Guang, Xiao Huo, and Lin Xin's.
Gao Yingjie's eyes brightened. He inwardly nodded. These youngsters had only cooperated for the first time and they had already found the crux. A Guardian Knight or Shield Warrior that could resist the enemy's attack was the true core of a team. What's more, this very beautiful young Knight also had a Saint Spiritual Stove. That defensive stance was completely natural. No wonder he was this year's first place in the individual competition.
But, was this enough?
The heavy sword's forward slash didn't change. It was as if Gao Yingjie didn't see Sima Xian's heavy staff slash from the left and Han Yu's Light Slash from the right.
Boom — —
A kind of crushing feeling made Long Haochen's whole body shake. The five layers of defense in front of him, to Gao Yingjie, were unexpectedly as weak as paper. It only slightly weakened the golden light on his sword. This sword heavily slashed at Long Haochen's Holy Spirit Shield.
It was also at this time that the Evil Eye above Han Yu's head suddenly exploded with an intense white light. Even with Gao Yingjie's cultivation, his body slightly stagnated for a moment, falling into a momentary trance. Then, his heavy sword slashed at Long Haochen's shield.
The terrifying impact instantly spread from the Holy Spirit Shield to his limbs and bones. At this moment, Long Haochen only felt as if his body was no longer his own. That vast and terrifying spiritual power completely crushed the impact, causing his whole body to practically slide along the ground and fly out. The Light's Vengeance flashed with golden light. His whole body felt numb, as if he was exhausted.
Although Long Haochen had a very high estimation of the strength of a powerhouse of the seventh step, when they truly exchanged blows, he deeply understood the huge gap between them. Even with the concentrated strength of the entire team, they could only barely block this attack.
At this time, a pair of huge golden wings of light unfurled from Gao Yingjie's back. The Light Severing Sword fell on the wings of light and was instantly annihilated. Sima Xian's full strength attack after going berserk fell on the other side of the wings of light, but it only produced a bang. The Holy Light Hammer attached to it was instantly assimilated by the tyrannical and terrifying light elements. His majestic body also bounced back as if he had collided with a ferocious horse, falling far away.
Long Haochen didn't stop his Saint Spiritual Stove because of this. He was the captain, and also the core of the team. At this time, the heavy responsibility of blocking Gao Yingjie was naturally his responsibility.
Four rays of light once again appeared on his body. This time, there were no less than four layers of elemental shields. Although it was one layer less than before, how could a rank 3 Holy Light Barrier compare to a rank 5 Elemental Shield? Its defense was actually a bit stronger than before.
Long Haochen took a deep breath and did his utmost to urge the spiritual energy within his body to dissolve the numb feeling. At this time, the advantage of his external spiritual energy surpassing that of a Knight of the same rank showed itself. In one breath, the numbness on his body had already been mostly dissolved.
Gao Yingjie's sword forced Long Haochen back. Under the pull of the Saint Spiritual Stove, unless he turned around and ran out of the range of the stove, the only one he could attack was Long Haochen. With a sliding step, he charged towards Long Haochen. As for Han Yu's attack, he simply didn't care in the slightest. The pair of wings on his back only moved slightly, easily blocking it.
Holy Light Seeping Shield, Holy Light Barrier, Divine Block.
Long Haochen once again activated all of his defensive abilities. At this time, another layer of red light fell on his body, unexpectedly giving him another layer of elemental shield.
It was Lin Xin. With the help of the Fire Cloud Crystal, Lin Xin's magic release speed was much faster than Haoyue's. Unexpectedly, in such a short time, he was able to create two layers of elemental shield to support Long Haochen's defense.
Boom — —
Long Haochen once again brazenly met Gao Yingjie's attack head-on. A violent explosion rang out, and this time, he was forced back seven or eight steps before he managed to stabilize himself. All of his defensive barriers shattered once more. But compared to the first attack, because there were more layers of defense, it was clearly a lot easier to deal with. At least he didn't feel numb all over again.
At the same time, Long Haochen pointed his Holy Spirit Sword forward and a Light Slash Sword accompanied by Light's Vengeance slashed towards Gao Yingjie.
Gao Yingjie was a little surprised. This young man of only rank 5 was unexpectedly able to block his attack twice in a row with the help of his teammates. Although he didn't use his full strength, it was still quite shocking. Their team was unexpectedly able to complete the defense of five elemental shields in such a short time. If it was any other newly promoted Monster Hunters, they probably wouldn't even be able to do it three times. Moreover, this young man's Divine Block unexpectedly gave him a feeling of perfection. Not only was he skilled, he even used the essence of the Divine Block to divert power.
However, Gao Yingjie clearly didn't intend to waste too much time here. After forcing Long Haochen back with his sword, he slid his feet and instantly connected with a Shield Block Charge. He wouldn't injure these young men, but he still wanted to send Long Haochen flying, making his Saint Spiritual Stove lose its effect. Without the Guardian Knight's main defense, the others simply wouldn't be able to take a single attack from him.
However, at this time, a moment of absent-mindedness appeared in his mind, unexpectedly causing him to be unable to connect with the Shield Block Charge.
The Evil Eye sinisterly shook its head above Han Yu's head. At this time, Han Yu didn't continue to attack. Instead, he stood there motionlessly, a dense golden mist rising from his body. This was the Accumulation of Power that Long Haochen often used.
With his current attack, he couldn't break through Gao Yingjie's defense. Only by accumulating power and compressing his own spiritual power would he have a greater chance.
The endless dignity and arrogance of a monarch who ruled over the world appeared at this moment.
A huge golden light rose from the side of Long Haochen's back. Like a huge golden meteor falling from the sky, it fiercely smashed towards Gao Yingjie.
The pressure that seemed to come from the wilderness caused even Gao Yingjie's expression to change. For the first time, his gaze became serious.
The one who soared into the sky was, without a doubt, Wang Yuanyuan. Moreover, it was the strongest version of Wang Yuanyuan, who had completed the embedding of the three gems into the Divine Soul Shield.
Emitting a dazzling golden light, the Divine Soul Shield flashed with red, yellow, white, blue, and gray colors. It was as if a mountain was crushing down on Gao Yingjie.
Gao Yingjie didn't continue to chase after Long Haochen. Instead, his feet stopped moving.
While he was pausing, Long Haochen didn't stay idle. Three halos of light spread out. At the same time, as he quickly chanted an incantation, an angel-like light slowly formed above his head.
Faith Halo, Blessing of Protection, Trueshot Halo. These were the three most basic halos of the Guardian Knight. Long Haochen was very familiar with using them. As long as he had enough time to catch his breath, he wouldn't even need to chant an incantation to instantly cast them.
With the help of the three halos and the Holy Spirit Guardian, the light on Wang Yuanyuan's body became even more dazzling.
Back then, in front of the Divine Soul Shield, Long Haochen had almost been defeated. It was only because of Haoyue's help and Wang Yuanyuan's exhaustion that they were able to display the shield's full strength that they won. If he hadn't defeated Wang Yuanyuan in that battle, once she entered the top 16, who knew what her final ranking would be like.
As the strongest warrior in the current Warrior Temple, Wang Yuanyuan completely erupted with her battle strength at this moment.
Raising the shield, her body froze. It was Divine Block. This was the signature skill of a high-ranking Knight. Gao Yingjie naturally knew how to use it.
Facing the pressure of the Divine Soul Shield, he had no choice but to focus.
However, at this moment, a black figure silently appeared behind him. A dark golden light flashed.
Cai Er, who was hiding in the shadows, finally moved at this crucial moment.
When Long Haochen had received the first attack, Cai Er had already changed her position. Even with Gao Yingjie's ability, he didn't notice that she had moved from behind Long Haochen to behind Han Yu.
Gao Yingjie chased after Long Haochen, so he naturally rushed past Han Yu's position. Han Yu was accumulating power, and Cai Er had also arrived behind him.
Cai Er's attack position was very precise. It happened to be the center of Gao Yingjie's condensed spiritual wings, which was also his back. This was the weakest part of his wings' defense.
That's right, Divine Block was indeed very strong. However, its biggest flaw was that during the moment of defense, the body had to remain motionless and use the whole body to neutralize the enemy's attack. And the time that Cai Er chose was precisely the moment his body froze, which was also the moment when the Divine Soul Shield was about to collide with his defense.
Cai Er wasn't an assassin who was good at disguising herself and using her body to confuse the enemy. She was good at hiding, looking for opportunities, and killing in one hit. Although her eyes couldn't see, she was more accurate than anyone else in finding the enemy's weakness.
Not good. Gao Yingjie's expression changed the moment Cai Er made her move. After all, he was a seventh-ranked Temple Knight. Although Cai Er's movements were silent, his perception of danger was still there.
Many years of fighting with Demons had already nurtured his beast-like instincts. Without any hesitation, he dispersed the Divine Block and used the heavy sword in his right hand to block with his back as fast as lightning. At the same time, his body instantly lit up with a transparent gold color.
Ding — —, boom — —
Two sounds seemed to appear at the same time.
Wang Yuanyuan felt as if she had collided with a mountain. The violent recoil caused her whole body to fly backwards. Even the Divine Soul Shield fell from her hand.
But her valiant all-out attack also caused Gao Yingjie's body to sway. The center of the shield in his hand also had a slight dent.
Han Yu, who was still accumulating power, could clearly see that the heavy sword that Han Yu had used to block Cai Er's attack on his back had unexpectedly been pierced through. Moreover, Cai Er's attack was repelled in one hit. She didn't even have to face it head on. One could faintly see a dark golden luster penetrating the heavy sword and vanishing into the golden light on Gao Yingjie's body.
The seventh-ranked Temple Knight's signature skill, [Radiant Body].
