Chapter 636 – Fierce Struggle

'Corrosive Mist' was one of the most commonly used Dark Mage spell. This magic can be both weak and strong. This spell was mainly dependent on the Dark Mage and on what type of poison he decided to use.

Corrosion magic was like this because it was a kind of growing magic. Magic is divided into low-level, high-level, and forbidden-level magic. And aside from these three classifications, there is also growing magic.

Growing magic is a magic that can be slowly upgraded. Take corrosion for example, when practicing this magic, a Dark Mage would find a certain toxin and then slowly refine it with magic. After that, whenever a Dark Mage uses corrosions magic, it would then have the properties of that toxin.

When a Dark Mage gets into a higher level, he can refine a stronger toxin, making the strength of his corrosion much stronger. The more formidable one's toxin was, the more powerful the spell would be.

Zhao Hai's corrosion spell was not simple, the toxin that he used was the one that the Space had. It was strong to the point that it can affect 9th rank experts. Most importantly, it can also become a water element technique. Although it still needed the dark mist, which was a gas, the poison can still diffuse into the water.

When the Sea Dragons entered this mist, their breathing suddenly became difficult, their minds turning dizzy. This startled those who were attacking Zhao Hai. Blue light came out of their bodies as they formed a protective layer around it. However, these experts didn't expect that Zhao Hai's spell would also corrode their protective layer. This shook the Sea Dragons, they immediately retreated soon after.

One must know that even ordinary barriers can still remain untouched by 8th ranks as long as it was a 9th rank that used it. But Zhao Hai's corrosion can actually melt the protection of these 9th ranks. The Sea Dragons couldn't help but stare at the strength of Zhao Hai's 'Corrosive Mist'.

The Sea Dragons might have retreated, but one of them actually stayed. He saw how formidable Zhao Hai's corrosion was, but he still didn't go back. Instead, his eyes flashed as blue light reinforced his body before he rushed straight into the mist.

However, when he broke through the mist, he didn't see Zhao Hai in front of him. The person stared, before suddenly feeling alarms going off inside his head. He had a slight delay but was still able to promptly react as he blocked the attack from above using his trident.

Bang! A resounding sound was heard as the armor on the Sea Dragon's arm was broken by Zhao Hai's staff. The Sea Dragon let out a painful roar before he withdrew from the mist.

The scale armor of the Sea Dragons were derived from their own scales. The toughness of Dragon scales was famed throughout the continent. Nobody expected Zhao Hai to be able to crush it.

Dragon armor had many advantages, one of them was the fact that they were harder than most materials, making their defenses very good. However, their flaw was the fact that the scales were part of a Dragon's own body. So after being crushed, the pain that was brought to them would be much stronger compared to when one's full body armor gets crushed. Therefore, it wasn't a mystery as to why the Sea Dragon gave out a cry of pain.

The Sea Dragon was just repelled not killed. And after Zhao Hai hit the arm of the Sea Dragon, another on appeared on top of his has he went to grab the back of Zhao Hai's head. However, Zhao Hai's managed to quickly turn his body and blocked the other party's attack with his fist.

The Sea Dragon got excited, bodies of Dragons were always better compared to Humans. Even if they are both 9th ranks, bodies of Dragons still came on top. For Zhao Hai to use his fist to meet his attack, the Sea Dragon thought that Zhao Hai was just courting death.

Although the strength that Zhao Hai showed was quite formidable and revealed that he wasn't just a Mage, but also a very strong warrior. Still, the Sea Dragon believed that Zhao Hai's body wasn't so strong that he can manage to survive this encounter.

However, the Sea Dragon failed to notice that Zhao Hai's hand had already crystallized. Boom! When claw and fist met, the Sea Dragon cried in pain as he retreated immediately. Moreover, one could see that the Sea Dragon's fist was oozing out blood. If Dragons didn't have great bodies, his hand might have already been erased.

After repelling yet another person, Zhao Hai's figure rushed back into the fight. He flew towards to the recently injured Sea Dragon while also waving his staff, causing a few ice spears to appear and attack the other Sea Dragons.

The Sea Dragon who just retreated didn't think that Zhao Hai would attack. But since he was a 9th rank expert, his reaction also came quick. He didn't retreat but instead charged to meet Zhao Hai. His eyes were blazing as he stared at the Human. His two fingers extended as an ice weapon appeared and attacked Zhao Hai. The Sea Dragons had started to use magic in order to deal with Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai saw the Sea Dragons' movement, however, he didn't stop his charge and just sidestepped the attack. The Sea Dragon didn't expect that Zhao Hai would dodge like this. But he still followed up with a horizontal attack towards Zhao Hai's chest.

However, this Sea Dragon had forgotten about Zhao Hai's staff. Although the Blood Ghost Staff wasn't lengthened, it still came up longer in addition to the length of Zhao Hai's arm. Because of this, Zhao Hai's attack had come in contact with the Sea Dragon much sooner, Bam! The scale of the Sea Dragon broke as the Sea Dragon felt extreme chest pain. The Sea Dragon preserved his breath, otherwise he might have already fainted.

But since his defense was still strong, he managed to survive Zhao Hai's attack. His body was repelled back which also took him out of Zhao Hai's attacking range.

Zhao Hai stood in place, and just as he was about to chase, a Dragon suddenly appeared. This person was different from the Sea Dragons, his body was covered golden armor, a style the same as the Sea Dragon but was thicker. Moreover, in addition to his sharp claws, this Dragon also had sharp protrusions on his two elbows. This made his elbows a good weapon for attack.

The Dragon used his elbow to attack Zhao Hai. The reason this Dragon stopped attacking the undead was because Zhao Hai was about to leave the magic formation. It was imperative to their plan that Zhao Hai stayed inside.

Zhao Hai didn't know about this, so he was concentrating on meeting the enemy attack. Zhao Hai saw that the enemy attack was quite strong, so he retreated and slammed into a Sea Dragon that was close who, at this time, was on his way to grabbing Zhao Hai's arm.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Hai waved his staff vertically, hitting the Sea Dragon upwards, blocking the Dragon attack. If the Dragon continued his attack, he would then be hitting the Sea Dragon, which was his ally.

As soon as Zhao Hai stopped, he felt a strong wave of pressure on his head. And behind him, another attack from the Sea Dragons arrived.

Zhao Hai flew down, then the staff on his hand suddenly lit up. One must know that it was very dark at the bottom of the sea, therefore the Sea Dragons had already adapted to the darkness. When Zhao Hai lit the area up, this caused to surrounding Sea Dragons to be blinded, feeling like their eyes were on fire. They gave a grunt as they stopped their attack and then turned back.

Ninth rank experts all have their Divine Sense, making them aware of their surroundings without even needing to see. However, if one was used to seeing and then were suddenly blinded, one would still have the instinct to retreat. The Sea Dragons were experiencing the exact same thing.

At this moment, another wave of light appeared, but this time, it didn't come from Zhao Hai, but from the Mages of the Radiant Church instead. The Mages were using light magic in order to attack Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai coldly snorted, then waved his staff as a Dark Mist appeared and surrounded him. The Dark Mist also began to spread, beginning to swallow the surrounding Sea Dragons.

The light magic of the Radiant Church's mages disappeared into the mist. People said that light magic was the bane of dark magic, but this statement felt useless to Zhao Hai. Instead, he had just used dark magic in order to fight light magic.

Inside the mist, Zhao Hai fought with the swallowed up Sea Dragons. And due to the corrosive property of the mist, the Sea Dragons were simply unable to fight in their full strength.

However, although the Dark Mist can block sight, it cannot do the same thing to a 9th rank's Divine Sense. Zhao Hai's attackers were all 9th ranks, they didn't need their eyes to know Zhao Hai's location. So after going through the undead, the 9th ranks immediately bombarded Zhao Hai with both magic and battle qi attacks. They didn't allow Zhao Hai to continue fighting with the Sea Dragon experts.

At this time, Luo Ying and the others were present, witnessing all that happened. When Luo Ying saw Zhao Hai's predicament on the water curtain, her face immediately changed. But just as she was about to send help, several people suddenly appeared inside the hall.

Luo Ying stared before seeing that it was Laura's group. Laura smiled faintly and said, "General, you don't need to worry about Brother Hai. You can just stay here and watch. Those who are fighting him are all 9th ranks. If you send people over, they will just die. Just let Brother Hai handle the enemy."

Chapter 637 – Sacrificial Offering

Luo Ying stared at the eyes of Laura and the others. The Mermaids had some understanding about Zhao Hai. He was famous in the continent for his dark magic and the Mermaids have also heard that the Buda Clan possessed numerous 9th rank experts. However, nobody had heard that Zhao Hai was a 9th rank expert himself.

Having said that, even if Zhao Hai was a 9th rank expert, he was still against numerous people of the same strength. In this case, how could Zhao Hai's group be confident? Where did this confidence come from?

But seeing that Laura and the others were unworried, Luo Ying couldn't help but hesitate. Can Zhao Hai really deal with so many 9th ranks on his own?

Luo Ying stared at Laura, Laura understood what Luo Ying was thinking, so she smiled faintly and said, "General, rest assured, even if Brother Hai can't kill them, he can just escape whenever he can. There's no need to worry."

Luo Ying nodded and said, "Alright, then we'll keep our eyes on Mister. If Mister needs help, we can send them at any time. My Azure Dragon Snail can deal with several 9th ranks with no problems."

Laura smiled faintly and said, "General, rest assured, if such a time arrives then we'll be impolite. General, we'll be taking our leave." Then the group vanished.

Luo Ying was stunned at what just happened, her expression couldn't help but change. She thought and reckoned that Laura and the others might also have Space divergent abilities.

Luo Ying knew about the rumors of Zhao Hai having a space divergent ability. However, she hasn't heard anything about Laura and the others having it as well. It seems like Zhao Hai has a lot of things that he kept secret from the continent.

Luo Luo looked at the place where Laura and the other vanished, then she said, "I've been with them for a good number of days. I didn't expect them to be this formidable."

Luo Ying smiled faintly and said, "Silly thing, if they don't want you to know then there's no way for you to find out. I think they revealed themselves this time because they wanted us to feel at ease, otherwise, they wouldn't have shown us their ability. It seems like Mister Zhao Hai has the capabilities to deal with the enemies this time."

Then Dashan, who was at the side, said, "General, the Sea Dragons have accumulated a lot of 9th ranks. This might place us in a dangerous predicament, I think we should send word to Her Majesty, have her send a few 9th ranks to aid us."

Luo Ying shook her head and said, "That's no good. Don't see our situation as dangerous. In fact, it is Her Majesty that's in peril right now. You might not have seen it, but the current situation stemmed from the fact that the Sea Dragons wanted to deal with Mister Zhao Hai first before stalling us here, having us ask for help from Her Majesty. And when Her Majesty sends help, the Dragons would then have the opportunity to attack Mermaid Island."

Dashan stared for a moment before his expression changed, "Then Her Majesty is in danger. General, don't we have to send word back to the island?"

Luo Ying shook her head, "I don't think it's necessary, you don't have to worry about it. When I told Her Majesty that the Sea Dragons and the Dragons were working together, she should've already prepared her defenses."

Dashan nodded and didn't talk anymore. Then Luo Ying turned her gaze back to the water curtain. Zhao Hai didn't know this, but this water curtain wasn't any ordinary magic, but a kind of magic unique only to the Azure Dragon Snail. After refining this thousand year old snail for countless years, it managed to gain this ability. Luo Ying named this curtain the 'War Curtain'.

Once they left the Azure Dragon Snail, it would be impossible for the Mermaids to use this magic again. If Zhao Hai showed Luo Ying his monitor, Luo Ying would surely be surprised.

Luo Ying's gaze turned to the water curtain just in time to see a scene that made him surprised. Zhao Hai was now fighting with the Sea Dragons once again, but now he seems to be having the advantage.

Zhao Hai's magic prowess was now in full bloom, he used all kinds of magic, including fire magic. Even if fire was heavily affected by the water, Zhao Hai still managed to use it, moreover, its power was also quite strong.

In addition, Zhao Hai had close combat ability that was much stronger than the Dragons due to his body being able to crystallize. Therefore, although he was besieged, he still managed to dominate.

Luo Ying stared blankly at the water curtain, she didn't expect Zhao Hai to be this strong. She saw with her own two eyes how Zhao Hai hit a Dragon and managing to repel the latter. This made Luo Ying speechless, making her doubt if those were real Dragons at all.

At this point, the Sea Dragons were much more surprised than Luo Ying. They also didn't expect Zhao Hai to be this strong.

Zhao Hai's current mood was very good, the blood inside his body was burning. He didn't know that fighting actually felt this good.

He was now getting acquainted to fighting more and more, he seems to be born to fight. This wonderful feeling made Zhao Hai crave fighting even more.

But the extraordinary thing about this was the fact that even if his blood was boiling with excitement, his mind stayed calm, allowing him to always react to the attacks of the enemy and counter them. This unusual and contradictory feeling made Zhao Hai even more excited.

On the other hand, the people from the Sea Dragon side were getting startled more and more. In the past, they had heard about Zhao Hai's clashes with the Radiant Church, but now, they seem to understand that Zhao Hai was much more difficult to deal with than they had thought.

The Sea Dragons and Dragons didn't expect Zhao Hai to be this fierce. Moreover, they didn't think that he would have the body that wasn't any worse than a Dragon. Their initial expectation of Zhao Hai being a mage was crushed at this point. This huge discrepancy from their imagination made them startled.

The thing that the Sea Dragons and the Dragons failed to notice was the people of the Radiant Church going outside of the formation, surrounding the two as well. Then these people took out a set of magic formations and placed them on the ground. After that, they shackled their bodies to the formation as they took a knife and slit their wrists. Blood immediately spurted out and fell on the magic formation. Then these people started to loudly recite magic incantations, and it seemed like this process would take a long time.

But along with their incantation, a layer of barrier slowly rose from those magic formations and surrounded not only the Dragons, but the Sea Dragons as well. Even the people from the Radiant Church were enclosed, including Joshua.

When they saw this barrier, Alex and Ao Ke stared before they stopped and turned their gaze towards Joshua. Alex loudly said, "Joshua! What are you doing?!"

Joshua's mouth didn't stop saying the incantations, the barrier slowly turned white as its pressure became stronger and stronger. This was not true pressure, but a kind of force that pressed down on Zhao Hai like a mountain.

Ao Ke loudly shouted as well, "Joshua! What do you want to do?"

Joshua had finished saying his spell. So he looked at him and said, "I said that Zhao Hai must fall here at all costs. This is a magical formation called 'Sacrificial Offering'. You guys along with me will be sacrificed and no one can escape. All of us will be dedicated to God today."

Ao Ke's face couldn't help but change, "Joshua, don't talk nonsense. If you do this, the Dragons certainly wouldn't let you off."

Joshua coldly smiled and said, "Your Dragon race is the servant of our Radiant Church's God. For the sake of God's purpose, it's understandable that you are to become a sacrifice. Everybody here will die, and the Dragons wouldn't be aware of how you died."

Zhao Hai codly smiled and said, "Didn't you try dealing with me with this method last time? I seem to remember that it failed. If I leave right now, all of you will die while I survive."

Joshua sneered and said, "The last time only had a few people, we have a lot more this time. And Zhao Hai, where you are right now is a magic formation that locks the space. You wouldn't be able to use your space ability even if you wanted to. It'll become useless."

Zhao Hai's expression changed before it turned into bewilderment. This was because he can feel that he hasn't lost contact with his Space. This meant that the Radiant Church's formation was useless.

Alex and Ao Ke's expressions changed as well. They didn't expect Joshua to be this ruthless, even sacrificing everyone here, including his own.

At this moment, Zhao Hai smiled and then said, "Now that your magic has been set, this meant that you people aren't able to move anymore. I won't be overstaying then, everyone, goodbye." Then his body flashed as he disappeared only to reappear outside the barrier.

When Joshua saw Zhao Hai appear outside the formation, his expression couldn't help but change as he turned into a maniac and said, "This is impossible, how can you leave? This is impossible! Our magic formation has been set. This is impossible!!! Zhao Hai come back here!!!"

Zhao Hai smiled faintly as he looked at Joshua and sneered, "This thing is useless to me. If I want to come in, then I can come in. If I want to leave, then I can leave whenever I want. You simply don't have the ability to block me. Hehe. The 'Sacrificial Offering' is about to start. All of you are going to die." Then Zhao Hai turned around to leave.

At this time, Alex suddenly shouted, "Mister, wait!"

Zhao Hai stared, then he turned his head to Alex and said, "A Sea Dragon? What do you want? Also want me to come back in? It's useless. I can leave whenever I want."
