Chapter 687: Domains of Blood and Extreme Cold (III)
Against her expectations, Lin Chen’s Saint Sun Curse was just too powerful, to the extent that McDull would only be able to resist two rounds before suffering a painful defeat. This forced Chen Ying’er to change her incantation to call out the Ice Dragon to battle in the shortest time, adapting her tactics to Lin Chen’s great power. Otherwise, with Lin Chen’s follow-up attack, she was afraid to be unable even to complete her next incantation.
As the Saint Spiritual Girl, Chen Ying’er needed a far shorter time for her incantations than ordinary people, requiring only about three seconds to chant a pacted beast’s summon, which is how she managed to call out this Ice Dragon so fast.
In over four years of seclusion, Chen Ying’er gained a lot of understanding regarding summons, but did not perform any more Spirit Bestowals other than the six Heart Dragons. That’s because she sensed that Spirit Bestowal showed even greater effects with McDull and her pacted beast, causing a lot of fantastic variation.
The Ice Dragon howled upon appearance, spreading out both its wings to protect Chen Ying’er behind its back, while releasing an icy-blue breath at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen’s face fell. Naturally, he didn’t believe that defeating McDull would achieve victory against Chen Ying’er, as this young girl showed her ability as a Spirit Master of the ninth step in the previous match, very capable in summoning magical beasts, her previous Creature Summoning Gate having caused the surge of myriads of beasts, making it very hard to resist. This was also why he utilized Sacred Sun Curse right off the bat, because he couldn’t let Chen Ying’er unleash her might to make use of her summoning magic to the greatest extent.
The gold-red dragon head was still growing out from the Saint Sun, when it finished gathering its power and released another gold-red breath with the same thickness, passing through the vast sky instantly to shoot straight at the Ice Dragon.
The gap of strength between the Ice Dragon and Saint Sun was visible to everyone inside the hot stadium. Only the areas surrounding Chen Ying’er and the Ice Dragon were not affected by the heat dispersed by the Saint Sun Fire Dragon which caused all the areas to feel boiling hot.
Without a doubt, the Saint Sun Fire Dragon was much stronger, and furthermore, Lin Chen’s incantation was still ongoing. No one knew what would be the next move for him to combine with Saint Sun Curse, but everyone predicted that it would in no way be weak.
The battle having come to this stage, Chen Ying’er was in an extremely disadvantageous position.
“God Descent, Myriad Beast Rank Rise!” Chen Ying’er had a tenacious look; don’t underestimate her for ordinarily being very playful, as a matter of fact, Ying’er’s a very competitive person. Yang Wenzhao having washed out, she would by no means permit herself to get eliminated like that
Chen Ying’er’s body suddenly produced milky-white drizzles, and immediately, a great illusory image lifted itself off her back.
That silhouette seemed to be human shaped, but the instant it appeared, the whole stadium started reverberating with astonishing sounds of beasts’ roars. What a spectacular scene! Even just these sounds caused Lin Chen’s body to sway, and affected the Saint Sun Dragon as well.
Two drizzling radiances were emitted from Chen Ying’er’s body, one of which landed on the distant McDull, who was resisting the Saint Sun Flames, and the other one on the Ice Dragon right in front of her.
Immediately, fantastic scenes surged out.
What came to sight first was this gigantic Ice Dragon in front of Chen Ying’er. It instantly swelled, her ice-blue attack turning entirely white. A drizzling white ice fog covered a half of the stadium in the blink of an eye, the Ice Dragon suddenly shooting up to a length of over thirty meters. Its breath forcibly stopped the Saint Sun Dragon’s flames, ice and gold-red interweaving and causing a disruption.
This was already the appearance of an adult Ice Dragon!
The powerhouses in the Spiritual Temple were all dumbstruck at this scene. As far as they remembered, there had never been a summoning spell enabling instantly raising an infant magical beast to adulthood, causing it to rise to its adult strength!
On the other side, McDull who received the boost from the white glow released by Chen Ying’er also sustained massive changes. His body abruptly inflated by close to twice, turning into a gigantic black dragon over thirty meters long, letting out low roars while releasing its dark-purple-colored darkness spiritual energy which corroded the Saint Sun Flame at great speed.
Shockingly, McDull let out another long cry, its black body rapidly turning white. Numerous changes continued to appear, until it transformed instantly into an adult Ice Dragon flapping its both wings to fly toward Chen Ying’er, and released a breath toward the distant Lin Chen.
This is...
Shapeshift?
The summoners all watched the battle before their eyes dumbstruck! Even the most experienced summoners were in deep shock; Chen Ying’er’s summoning magics were something they had never seen or heard about before! What were those abilities?
The appearance of a second Ice Dragon caused Lin Chen’s look to change greatly. Facing one adult Ice Dragon was already very tough, so with this second one here, his Saint Sun Fire would hardly keep its advantage.
Chen Ying’er kept the same complexion as she kept chanting. Without the boost from her Saint Spiritual Dress, her magic force was limited, but never forget that she’s the first Spiritual Saint Daughter to have ever appeared in the past several thousand years in the Spiritual Temple.
The huge figure on her back was the God’s Descent of the Beast God. After over four years of deep meditation, Chen Ying’er came to choose her own path: just like Lin Xin went for the path simplifying complex magic and Sima Xian went for a berserk fighting style, her path was a perfect integration of the Beast God’s abilities.
Those two white glows were from her domain which was created from fusing her Spiritual Bestowal and God’s Descent: the Beast God Domain.
The Beast God Domain’s power lay in its powerful single-target effects at a large range. Its only effect was amplification, taking effect on Chen Ying’er’s summons.
The juvenile Ice Dragon having transformed into an adult Ice Dragon upon getting the Mythological Beast Domain’s boost, and McDull having also gotten his strength boosted significantly. Aimed on a larger scale, the individual boost would get smaller as the number of targets increased.
“Should be my turn.” Chen Ying’er declared secretly, her incantation coming to a sudden stop as she spread her hands up, and directed them to the sky. Immediately, the immense figure on her back shattered, turning into countless lustering dots of light heading for Chen Ying’er’s two Ice Dragons and merging into their bodies.
“God’s Descent Transient Power, Domain! Chen Ying’er made a cute shout, causing an unforgotten sight to appear.”
The two Ice Dragons raised their heads, their eyes turning instantly into an ice blue color. Immediately, the interior of the whole stadium turned the same color, that extreme ice going as far as to even suppress the multicolored barrier outside the stadium, causing crackling sounds on it.
Lin Chen’s next magic was just done being prepared, but he found out shockingly that the temperature of his Saint Sun was actually plummeting, as the magic was forcibly broken off. A piercing chilliness assailed him immediately, freezing him as still as an ice sculpture.
Li Zhengzhi’s look immediately sharpened, shooting a sharp glance and firmly holding the armrests, as his tone went much higher than ordinarily, “Dual domains!”
The phenomenon of dual domains could be interprated in two ways, either as a simultaneous launch of two domains, or as someone wielding two different domains at once. But the current situation was visibly the former, as these two domains were clearly not coming from Chen Ying’er.
These were the very same domain belonging to an Ice Dragon, Domain of Extreme Cold.
If that was only one Domain of Extreme Cold, perhaps Lin Chen could have resisted by the means of his Saint Sun Curse, but two simultaneous domains produced far more power than a sum of one plus one! After all, Lin Chen was not a domain wielding powerhouse, and his Saint Sun Curse was suppressed greatly by his opponent’s attribute. His magic being broken through, he ended up sealed in the Domains of Extreme Cold.
Chen Ying’er had relied on the Beast God Domain’s extreme amplifications to bestow McDull and the Ice Dragon with domains’ simultaneously. Although it only lasted for a short time, that was enough against Lin Chen.
Without the Spiritual Saint Robe’s backing, the use of the Beast God Domain’s providencial boost caused Chen Ying’er to visibly become pale right afterwards. But standing in this world of ice, she gave off a sacred feel, just like a snow lotus, devoid of any impurity.
On the sixth lounge, all the referees coming from Demon Hunt Squads poured their spiritual energy into the barrier for the sake of stabilizing it to prevent the dual domains from making effect, but their spiritual energy was depleted at great speed, showing the terror of these united domains’ effects.
“Put that domain away, this match is your victory!” Chen Zidian’s voice reverberated, while a golden-bright and dazzling light spread from the sky, landing onto the iced Lin Chen’s body.
Chen Ying’er ended her show, terminating her boosts: just like the Domain of Extreme Cold came fast, it disappeared fast, instantly returning the stadium to normal.
McDull returned to its little pig shape and hopped into Chen Ying’er arms, her body having turned quite scorched, and the Ice Dragon, also shrunken down, disappeared in the hexagram under its feet.
The auxiliary head of the Mage Temple, Lin Chen, had lost.
At the time the frozen golden pillar of light wrapped around Lin Chen, he returned to his senses, still having chills upon remembering the previous ice. With a light sigh, he shook his head and returned to the direction of the Mage Temple.
Even Li Zhengzhi couldn’t really blame anyone, he had done all he could, but the enemy’s dual domains were just too powerful.
Lin Chen was actually not really convinced, thinking secretly that if he had made his breakthrough twenty years ago to the ninth step, and transformed his Sacred Sun into a domain, it would not necessarily have lost in front of the dual Domain of Extreme Cold. What a real shame, thinking that Saint Sun Cure could really be developed further if he had the capabilities, he couldn’t help but feel a burst of sadness.
