Chapter 167: Forest of Kun, Prison!
Translator: Tofu Editor: Tofu
The Thunderbolt was so strong that it could destroy anything in a blink of an eye without leaving any traces behind, which was also why Teacher Gu Han had acted at once even when Bai Cang Feng had his magic equipment. In truth, the Intermediate-level Lightning: Thunderbolt was too ruthless. Even with his magic equipment, Bai Cang Feng would still probably have been crushed in an instant. Thus, even when Bai Cang Feng was confident that he could repel Mo Fan’s attack, Teacher Gu Han felt that there was no reason for him to risk being derelict in his duty.
And now, Mu Nujiao was faced with the same thing experienced by Bai Cang Feng!
As the Thunderbolt struck, one would suffer extreme injuries, if not death, if he or she failed to evade the devastating attack. It was also insufficient to possess defensive magic equipment, as the Thunderbolt might just shatter the magic equipment along with its owner!
But this time, Gu Han stood aside calmly.
He had already seen Mu Nujiao’s defensive measures. Besides, in his perception, Mu Nujiao was entirely out of that idiot Bai Cang Feng’s league!
“Wind Trail-Drifting Shadow!” Mu Nujiao, who was still moving slowly, suddenly s.h.i.+fted rapidly as soon as the thunderous storm shrouded the air above her.
In the midst of the raging lightning, her curvaceous body could be seen moving agilely on the pre-set Wind Trails, her clothes dancing around her from her rapid movement.
The raging lightning went on a rampage on the arena, drilling out a huge hole in the ground with relentless power. But Mu Nujiao had already traveled ten meters away from the spot!
If the Lightning Star Atlas was completed before the Star Trail was released, the Thunderbolt would definitely be an attack that could not be evaded. Too bad for Mo Fan, Mu Nujiao has already prepared herself for this attack, praised Gu Han in his heart as he nodded his appreciation.
Ruthless and swift, that was the style of Intermediate Lightning magic!
And judging from what Mu Nujiao had pulled off, she obviously had a certain amount of understanding of the Intermediate Lightning magic, and so had set up her Wind Trails long ago.
With that, all she had to do was wait until Mo Fan completed his spell and quickly s.h.i.+ft her position away from his attack as soon as the thundercloud took shape.
If she had moved slightly earlier, he would have been able to lock on to her again, and if she was too slow, the speed of her wind would be no match for the lightning. Hence, she chose a very precise moment and made use of her Primary magic to evade Mo Fan’s Intermediate Thunderbolt!
What an incredible woman! She actually dodged the Thunderbolt!, thought the now-shocked Mo Fan.
He had finally met a strong mage and unlike those students who knew nothing more than just studying the moves and applying their knowledge without creativity and flexibility, Mu Nujiao had obviously been showered with countless battles. Those battles granted her quite a bit of knowledge on the Intermediate tier spells!
After all, being able to grasp the timing and location of the final moment of the Thunderbolt was not something just anyone could do…
“Seems like you are going to lose!”
Using the Wind Trails she had precast, Mu Nujiao now stood at a place Mo Fan’s attacks could not reach.
This time, she would not give Mo Fan even the slightest chance to cast another Thunderbolt!
“Really? If you use the Wind Disc, Tornado again, I will have already evaded it long before it reaches me,” said Mo Fan as he looked at her.
The Wind Disc, Tornado could cover a very huge area, but its speed was relatively slow. Hence, during the time it traveled from one end to the other of the arena, Mo Fan would have enough time to take measures against the tornado.
“Have I ever said that I was going to use any Wind Element magic?” replied Mu Nujiao as a bright and sweet smile blossomed on her face.
The smile was so beautiful, but Mo Fan only felt immense danger coming from it!
“Forest of Kun-Gaol!”
Green Star Trails that resembled twisted vines appeared under the feet of Mu Nujiao. They quickly formed into a symbol that resembled nature, surging with condensed life force!!
She called out the name of her spell as if she was reading out a long forgotten spell while controlling the spirits of nature that danced around the nature totem.
With a finger flick, she turned the enormous lifeforce into an unattractive seed shrouded in green light.
The seed dropped to the ground not far away from Mo Fan. In just an instant, everything changed when the seed burrowed into the floor.
Something was emerging from the floor and before Mo Fan could react, countless strange looking trees, vines, and roots came charging out from the floor…
They pushed aside the arena floor around them, and what was even more terrifying was that they all matured at a visible speed!
Some twined together before sp.a.w.ning even more seeds that quickly ripped open into even more branches and vines, while others continued spreading across their surroundings before forming an area filled with only plants!
A few seconds ago, this area was filled with sand, rocks, and other debris. But now the area had been invaded by plants giving off a presence like a ma.s.sive monster invading a place in search of something!!
Clearly, these plants possessed the ability to detect life force. They sensed Mo Fan and circled around him as they grew with unbridled speed. As Mo Fan withdrew, these plants did not stop him, but instead grew quickly into a thick vine forest that slowly cut off his path of retreat!
The many plants started growing faster and higher, to the extent no one was able to see through the ma.s.s of them.
They were just like a prison entirely made of weird-looking trees, vines, and branches. There were so many plants that they sealed off any possible exit for anyone trapped inside!
This was a prison that rose from the ground, which also had the entire top of Mo Fan covered tightly!
It appeared just out of nowhere and greatly amazed the other students.
Previously, just like the Wind Disc, Tornado had already changed everyone’s view on Mu Nu Jiao, with this prison of plants, she surprised everyone once again to a point where they couldn’t believe that this was the work of a new student!
Even the older students might not be a match for her!
After all, the majority of them had yet to enter the Intermediate level, not to mention she had cultivated both Elements at the Intermediate level to the point where she could fully unleash their power!
Now, a proper Summoned Beast compet.i.tion had turned into a battle between two Intermediate Mages.
This caused some of the proud students out there to wonder if they were walking on the right path or not…
Just like them, both Mu Nu Jiao and Mo Fan were also new students, but how were they able to cast those Intermediate tier spells that were so far out of reach?!
It was fine if you knew only one Intermediate tier magic, but how come your second Element is also at the Intermediate level?!?
What is the point for us to keep on living anymore?!?
