Chapter 542: Reflecting the forbidden spell (I)
What’s to be done? An image?
Long Haochen trembled, having finally come up with a solution.
At that very moment, the upper bodies of the soldiers on the fortress were almost all bare, and they appeared to be tearing apart their own bodies with their utmost. Many of them were dripping with blood, and some already had bones showing through, but their state of mind only kept worsening.
Outside the Exorcist Mountain Pass, the assassin powerhouses’ slaughter had finally reached its peak.
The multi-colored light which had shot out vanished abruptly, and Long Haochen immediately flew to the top of the fortress, looking straight at the distant Celestial Dance of Lust.
What was an incomparable enticement for the soldiers of the Exorcist Mountain Pass didn’t affect Long Haochen in the slightest. Through the mask of Long Haochen’s Golden Foundation Armor, his golden eyes were exposed to Sytry’s sight.
Devoid of any impurity, they didn’t show the slightest desire due to Sytry’s Celestial Dance of Lust.
Sytry was in total shock. Could it be that this human knight doesn’t have the slightest dark side? But lust and desire are humans’ most primitive drives. Why isn’t he affected at all? At this time, Sytry found out to her stupor that these limpid golden eyes were thoroughly engraved in her mind.
Sytry’s field of expertise was illusion attacks, in other words, psychic magic. As a user of such magic, her nemesis was an enemy who wouldn’t be affected by her psychic spells.
Long Haochen’s crystal clear eyes had swayed her heart, and immediately, her Celestial Dance of Lust’s effects started to lessen significantly.
No good! Sytry cried out secretly, and forced herself to keep her calm. Shutting her eyes, she stopped looking at Long Haochen, but her heart was still disturbed. Deep inside, the image of these golden eyes kept twinkling, and she couldn’t escape it even when shutting her eyes.
Her heart having been marked, unless Sytry killed or subdued Long Haochen, her cultivation would surely be greatly affected by that blow.
Naturally, Long Haochen didn’t know about that change in Sytry. His left hand thumped on his chest, and multi-colored light started spreading out all around him, the signature of the Divine Snail Shield of Sun and Moon. Only, it was currently spreading out inexhaustibly all around the fortress.
The spreading of this light immediately blocked the view of the Celestial Dance of Lust, as well as that pink light and aura. Everywhere the multi-colored light passed, the frantic movements of the soldiers slowed down. Only, because the intense lust was still present, they had yet to recover their whole awareness for a moment.
Due to being a female, Lan Yanyu was rather minimally affected. After Long Haochen’s Divine Snail Shield’s act of sheltering, she immediately came back to her senses and lifted her staff high, chanting a fast series of incantations. A cold rain then started to fall on the fortress.
From the stimulation of the cold rain, the soldiers of the Exorcist Mountain Pass’ recovery from this state of lust accelerated.
At this time, the Divine Snail Shield of Sun and Moon’s defensive power was reduced to its weakest. For the sake of sheltering the Celestial Dance of Lust from view, Haochen had to expand the divine power of the Divine Snail Shield to just as large a scale, subjecting himself to a massive pressure as well. He didn’t know whether he could last until the termination of the enemy’s forbidden spell.
This time, the liberation of the Divine Snail Shield of Sun and Moon was completely different from the last time.
Last time on the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass, the Divine Snail Shield was affected by the two Fiend Commanders’ special technique and autonomously transferred Long Haochen’s spiritual energy to itself to temporarily unleash its might as a divine tool.
But this time, with the help of Star King, Long Haochen was the one who activated the power of the Divine Snail Shield, and his spiritual energy was compressed to a great extent until the time that the sun and moon crossed. While before it had amplified Long Haochen’s strength, now the Divine Snail Shield of Sun and Moon was releasing all the compressed spiritual highlandized energy. Therefore, its power was even stronger than back in the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass, and was under Haochen’s control.
From afar, the fortress looked as if it was completely enveloped in a layer of multi-colored light. Soft golden radiance was undulating in the air, forcibly blocking the Celestial Dance of Lust.
More astonishingly, this multi-colored light unexpectedly reflected it like a mirror, refracting the image of Sytry’s Celestial Dance of Lust towards the already disarrayed demon troops from the sky.
This seemed unimportant, but the already completed Celestial Dance of Lust had even greater effects on demons than on humans. After all, the lower ranked demons’ intelligence was quite limited, and their instincts were a lot stronger. For a moment, the demon army was drizzling with a layer of purple.
The powerhouses of the Assassin Temple were also startled, all looking together in the direction of the Exorcist Mountain Pass’ fortress. The lustrous multi-colored golden light that came to their sight filled them with deep shock, and they saw in the meantime Sytry’s Celestial Dance of Lust. Even with these assassin powerhouses’ cultivation, the sight of the Celestial Dance of Lust had immediate effects on them. However, as highly profound cultivators and very aged characters, the speed of their lusts igniting wasn’t too fast. Sheng Yue whistled, and the few assassin powerhouses immediately turned away, before fleeing through an empty space.
Since the Exorcist Mountain Pass’ crisis was relieved, they didn’t need to keep staking their lives here any longer. Most of all, the priority was to shelter themselves from that forbidden spell’s influence.
No matter their type, all the demons that suffered the effects from the Celestial Dance of Lust immediately became frantic. Amongst them, the most affected were the Dual Bladed Demons serving as cannon fodder.
Everywhere Sytry’s Celestial Dance of Lust came into view, large expanses of Dual Bladed Demons immediately died with their limbs cut off. Their juices were scattering all around, and an extremely intense stench spread to the battlefield.
This was the might of that forbidden spell. The effects sustained by the Exorcist Mountain Pass were now sent back with several-fold amplification to the demon armies.
For better or worse, humans were, after all, intelligent beings, and their self-control was a lot greater than demons. Although the damage they sustained in the short term was not small, they hadn’t completely gone out of control yet. But the Celestial Dance of Lust was just beyond terrifying to demons.
This was also the reason why the demon gods never dared look straight at the Emo Demon God.
Even the demon gods ranked higher than her were unwilling to have dealings with the Emo Demon God. Without sufficient willpower, one would hardly free himself from her emotional magic.
Sytry became blank upon seeing her forbidden spell reflected like that. That’s because in front of her appeared an immense figure with the same looks as her. Not only her, but even the other five demon gods guarding her became blank.
In this short span of time, the demon army below had already suffered astonishing damage.
“No good!” Sytry let out a low shout. Her hands rapidly formed a seal, to dispel her own forbidden spell as fast as possible. She didn’t know how Long Haochen managed to reflect that, but the situation in front of her eyes was a matter of fact. If things went on, at least half of the demon troops would be buried because of her own forbidden spell.
Long Haochen was holding the Divine Snail Shield of Sun and Moon strenuously. In the meantime, the Emo Demon God very rapidly dispelled her forbidden spell. Still, it deserved being called such. In case of full activation, stopping it wasn’t so easy, and required time.
The soldiers in the fortress were under the Divine Snail Shield of Sun and Moon’s protection, and gradually came back to their senses under the stimulation of the cold rain. After these intense surges of lust, they became extremely weak. Many warriors were injured due to the wounds they had inflicted upon themselves in their frantic state, and some died due to blood loss. But most of the soldiers were able to keep some control.
Even so, the soldiers that were still standing on their feet were extremely scarce. Only the most powerful ones were still able to persevere.
One couldn’t help but notice that the Brilliant Angel Knight Regiment was in a very good state. It wasn’t that they had a greater resistance against Sytry’s magic, but the key was that they were clad in extremely thick armors. Taking off these armors was not an easy matter at all, and that’s all the more the case in states of frenzy. Therefore, their injuries were the least, and very few of them died. But they had for the most part lost their fighting strength. And if the Celestial Dance of Lust had continued for longer, they also would have hardly avoided the fate of death while burning with desire.
Right now, in front of these Brilliant Angel Knights, as Long Haochen rode Star King and spread out that multi-colored golden light with his left arm lifted, he appeared just like their savior.
That’s the Saint Knight Head, their Saint Knight Head! Right now, the Saint Knight Head was using his powerful strength to ward off the enemy’s forbidden spell. For a moment, every Brilliant Angel Knight was filled with great reverence. Even if they had to crawl, each of them forced himself to make a knight salute towards Long Haochen’s direction.
Cai’er was standing up with difficulty, with the support of her mother. At the sight of the dazzling multi-colored golden light, she couldn’t help but let her tears flow.
He didn’t fail to live up to her expectations, once again saving them from the desperate crisis, and helped the Assassin Temple to survive the most fatal attack they had ever suffered.
Maybe the effects of reflection were coincidental, but no one could refute that the Scion of Light had been brought by Providence. Who else could produce such a coincidence?
“Pop”. The golden light shattered, and its multi-colored radiance scattered in the sky.
From the time Long Haochen enveloped the fortress of the Exorcist Mountain Pass with his light, to now, when he and Star King could be seen falling down, only ten or so minutes had passed. But during these mere ten minutes or so, he had saved the whole Exorcist Mountain Pass.
Afar, the Celestial Dance of Lust was slowly dissipating. Because of its forceful termination, the Emo Demon God Sytry was still suffering severe backlash. At this very moment, the corners of her mouth were flushing with pink blood, and her gaze was thrown at Long Haochen on the Exorcist Mountain Pass’ fortress.
