Chapter 1220 - Facing a Hundred Soldiers!
“Trying to run away? No one is leaving this desert today!” Zhang Qihu looked at Mo Fan coldly, yet he did not attack right away.
He was a lieutenant. If he had to deal with a man that was courting death, what was the point of being in charge of the others?
He had quite a number of elites under his command. They could easily deal with this man that slipped through the net!
Zhang Qihu waved his hand and said disdainfully, “Huang Yi, Lao Yin, brother, I’ll let you three handle him!”
“Hehe, brother, you wouldn’t mind me detaining him alive so I can flay him slowly?” Zhang Dan smilingly said.
“Since when do you have such a weird fetish? I shouldn’t have placed you in charge of interrogating criminals. You can detain him and do your thing somewhere else,” Zhang Qihu snapped.
“Not a problem!” Zhang Dan jumped forward and landed on a rock. In a few seconds, Demon Trees with spikes burst out of the ground and whipped wildly around the man. It was a ghastly sight!
“He’s pretty strong. We should take him out together to avoid more casualties,” the female lieutenant Huang Yi said.
“That won’t be necessary, but that wolf is going to be a hassle to deal with. Forget it, the others will handle the wolf. Let’s focus on taking out the kid,” Lao Yin said.
All three of them were Advanced Mages. They rapidly surrounded Mo Fan.
Zhang Dan was a Plant Mage. He controlled the plants that were spreading around him adeptly.
Zhang Dan was the first to approach Mo Fan. As he pointed ahead, a bunch of Demon Tree Hands with spikes sprang forward!
Mo Fan had no intention of dodging the attack. When the Demon Tree Hands were around twenty meters from him, they suddenly burst into flames. The ardent flames spread fiercely and burned the Demon Trees to ashes in seconds!
“Telekinesis: Illusionary Claws!” Mo Fan reached his hand out and grabbed the throat of the lieutenant called Zhang Dan.
He lifted Zhang Dan off the ground. The man summoned his magic Armor in a panic, but his Armor was nothing impressive. It began to crack open when Mo Fan strengthened his grip!
“Damn it, take him out now!” Zhang Qihu immediately panicked upon seeing this.
Zhang Dan was his brother. He never thought the man could suppress his younger brother so easily, after seeing how young he looked. It was surprising the young man was an Advanced Mage!
A strong magical aura was surging around Mo Fan. A few other Advanced Mages were channeling their Star Constellations. One was the Muslin of the Sky, turning into a giant spear, and the other was a Water Curtain, pouring down like a waterfall!
The Water Curtain posed a greater threat to Mo Fan. It was like a crack had just opened above him. The current was strong enough to shatter the bones of an enormous wolf!
In addition to the two Advanced Spells, a group of soldiers was locking their spells onto Mo Fan. Fiery Fists and Rolling Waves lunged at him, followed by strong winds and purple lightning!
He was suddenly surrounded by destructive spells!
However, Mo Fan had no intention of letting Zhang Dan go. A silver Star Pattern was flickering under his feet as he held Zhang Dan across the distance…
A silver rhomboid loomed over the area Mo Fan was occupying. The area of the Space Rhythm was over fifty meters wide. It felt like time had frozen inside it!
“Time Stasis!” Mo Fan raised his hand and clenched it into a fist. The energy of the Time Stasis spread into his surroundings!
The Muslin of the Sky, the Water Curtain, the strong waves, winds, the dense burning fists, and lightning all came to a stop around Mo Fan, failing to move even a single inch forward!
Xu Pingdong, Yang Bao, Fei Shu, and the people of the Golden Battle Hunters were dumbfounded. They felt an urge to simply kneel in front of Mo Fan and worship him as he stood in the center of the colorful destructive spells!
“Is…is the Space Element really that strong!?” Yang Bao, who also had the Space Element, was restless.
The single Space Rhythm had nullified so many attacks and spells. Most importantly, the man’s imperiousness had instantly toppled Yang Bao’s impression of the Space Element!
The soldiers and lieutenants attacking Mo Fan were dumbfounded, too. They were stunned for a moment until they heard a loud crack. Zhang Dan’s neck had been snapped by the terrifying man!
Zhang Dan fell to the ground. His head was distorted while his eyes were rolling, his face frozen in a painful expression. The man was obviously dead.
Zhang Qihu’s eyes reddened. He was thinking of letting his brother gain more experience from the battle, yet the man had killed his brother in the blink of an eye! It completely infuriated him!
“I’m going to tear your head off!” Zhang Qihu yelled angrily. He charged toward Mo Fan like a heavy missile, and slammed into the ground. Sharp rocks burst out of the ground within a hundred meters of where he landed!
Mo Fan quickly jumped to higher ground to dodge the spikes. He saw Zhang Qihu’s skin hardening, as if he had just put on an armor of rocks. The man launched himself into the air and kicked at Mo Fan.
Mo Fan turned into a shadow bird and flew rapidly along the walls. To his surprise, the walls were under Zhang Qihu’s control, too. Rows of spikes poked out of the walls after Mo Fan…
“Destroy him!” Zhang Qihu took a deep breath. He waved his hand to signal the soldiers when he saw Mo Fan fleeing into the distance.
Star Patterns appeared under the feet of the soldiers. The energy of more than ten Intermediate Spells soon rumbled forth; the whole valley was trembling!
“Demon Tree Trap!”
As the Intermediate Mages were about to blast Mo Fan with their spells, the ground that they were standing on suddenly cracked open. Countless Demon Tree Hands sprang up like powerful huge arms and dragged the soldiers into the ground!
Mo Fan glanced at Mu Nujiao, still hiding behind a rock, with a hint of relief.
Mu Nujiao’s primary Element was the Plant Element. The trap she had set up was absolutely impressive. It immediately took out the soldiers of a few squads and disrupted the channeling of their spells.
Mo Fan had just used the Space Rhythm: Time Stasis. The spell was still on cooldown. It might be a struggle to stop so many spells at once!
“Useless pricks! Huang Yi, Lao Yin, come with me; we are going to skin him alive!” Zhang Qihu groaned and led his two old comrades after Mo Fan.
Zhang Qihu was incredibly adept at using the Eyes of the Rock Demon, especially the way he was using it both offensively and defensively, turning him into a rock beast. Mo Fan could only take him on directly with the help of Little Flame Belle.
The problem was that if he had to use Little Flame Belle here, how was he supposed to fight Shi Qianshou?
Zhang Qihu was most likely one of the strongest Advanced Mages. He was clearly not an easy opponent, especially with how deadly his Rock Spikes Domain was.
“Where are you going to run to this time? I’m going to avenge my brother!” Deadly rock spikes burst out of Zhang Qihu’s body as he charged forward like a tank.
Huang Yi and Lao Yin had forced Mo Fan into a corner, leaving him with no chance of escaping. Mo Fan had no choice but to face Zhang Qihu directly.
“Blink,” Mo Fan did not panic. Their attempt to flank him was useless as long as he had Blink available.
Zhang Qihu rammed into the rocks as Mo Fan had entered the tunnel of the Space Element just a second ahead of him. He reappeared a hundred meters behind Zhang Qihu with a silver flash, his face calm.
Huang Yi and Lao Yin frowned.
The young man was seriously a tough opponent to fight against. Not only did he dare to take them on alone, he was able to face Great Lieutenant Zhang Qihu calmly, too!
“Damn it!” Zhang Qihu broke free from the rocks. He turned around and almost lost his mind when he saw Mo Fan’s calm face!
It was humiliating knowing that he was being played like a fiddle by the young man!
Zhang Qihu did not attack recklessly again. He gave the order to his men, “Use the Shadow Element to seal his movement!”
He had a bunch of Shadow Mages on standby. Once they set up the Formation of Giant Shadow Spikes, it would prevent the young man from using Blink. Otherwise, they would never land any of their spells on him.
“How stupid,” Mo Fan chuckled when he sensed the energy of the Shadow Element rising around him.
Mo Fan cast the Advanced Shadow Spell before the Shadow Mages were done channeling their spells. “Nyx Regime!”
The light shining upon the valley was interrupted by darkness. A black mist loomed over the place. The people could not see a thing.
The soldiers with Shadow Element were strengthened by the darkness too, but they had lost track of their target. If they fired the Giant Shadow Spikes now, they might hit their own people instead!
Most importantly, the man’s Shadow Element was clearly a lot stronger than theirs. Would their Giant Shadow Spikes even do anything to him?
“Formation of Giant Shadow Spikes! Seal!”
As they thought, a stronger energy descended upon them. They could clearly sense the darkness infiltrating their bodies and minds, leaving them terrified!
The soldiers shuddered when the shadow swords landed on them. Their bodies and minds were completely Sealed off by the swords!
