Chapter 1238 Clash of Powerhouses

The previously merry and rowdy Blueberry Villa had fallen completely silent.

As the magical barrier rose around the compound, the human servants ran into the buildings to hide, panicking and pale. The adept guests at the banquet took to the skies and observed the giant lake from within the barrier.

A large ball of fire hovered in midair above the water’s surface, standing off against the black and white halos.

The two individuals moved quickly across the surface of the lake, the fire and the halos colliding and clashing.

Every clash sent tremors through the air that shook the very space itself. At least half of the surface of the lake was now burning with fire.

However, even the most ferocious and violent of the flames could not suppress the black and white halos’ existence. The flames would disperse, and the fires extinguished where the two halos shone. It didn’t matter what form the flames took. They were shredded to scattered sparks by the halos and fell down to the lake below, making it seem as if the water itself was burning.

As Olivia’s friends, families, and subordinates, all the adepts present were familiar with that pair of black and white halos. However, no one had seen that formless, shifting golden flame.

Olivia’s gravity laws were clearly superior to Greem’s fire laws. However, Greem had a far better mastery of his own laws.

Increased Fire Range, Increased Fire Effectiveness, Fire Penetration, Invisible Flames, Critical Fires, Fire’s Fragility, and Fire’s Resilience; Greem repeatedly switched between the seven fire laws. Every one of his attacks tested Olivia with a new law to deal with.

By the time Olivia started to get used to the frequency and effects of his different attacks, Greem began to use different combinations of his fire laws, imbuing his spells with wondrous might and power.

In all honesty, this was the first time in her life that Olivia felt genuine hatred and disgust for fire as an elementium!

With Fire Penetration, the elementium resistance that Olivia had always been so proud of was utterly useless. With Critical Fires, even the smallest spark of flame could inflict devastating damage to her. She had to constantly monitor every change in elementium around her for Invisible Flames. With Fire’s Fragility, trading hits with Greem became no more than a joke. With Fire’s Resilience, any fire that managed to catch onto her became unbelievably challenging to extinguish.

After realizing the might of Greem’s fire laws, Olivia finally put away the arrogance in her heart. She started to treat her opponent as an equal and quickly threw out her first hidden ace.

A centaur spirit that existed as both immaterial and material!

This Fourth Grade centaur spirit could freely shift between a material form and an ethereal form. It could dodge physical attacks from the enemy with its ethereal form before switching to its material form and stunning the enemy with a War Stomp. It could then expand on that opportunity and unleash a vicious flurry of attacks.

If Greem had not been prepared, Olivia and her myriad of techniques–combined with the barbaric centaur spirit–might have been able to knock him out of the sky.

Fortunately, just as Olivia had assistance, Greem also had an ally at hand!

Shadow Demon flickered out of his shadow, instantly fending off the centaur spirit’s attacks. The two summoned creatures then commenced charging all over the battlefield, constantly flickering as they struggled to decide a victor.

Seeing as his opponent had started using summoned creatures, Greem did not hesitate to do so as well. He tossed out a Fourth Grade golem core, instantly summoning a Fourth Grade Molten Giant standing at over thirteen meters tall.

The Molten Giant might only be a beginner Fourth Grade, but when its towering form crashed into the lake, it was still tall enough to attack Olivia with the upper half of its body. When the lakewater clashed with the Molten Giant’s violent flames, the entire lake started to bubble and boil.

The many aquatic creatures that lived in the lake now met with calamity. One by one, they were cooked alive. Their bodies floated to the surface and were reduced to cinders by Greem’s terrifying Burning Domain.

Olivia, who had been freely soaring across the air with her gravity halos, was wincing in pain from the endless barrage of fire spells. The gravity halos encircling her might be able to block all of the attacks, but the sparks from the shattered spells still caused her tremendous pain when they touched her.

Enraged, Olivia extended both hands, and countless gravity halos surged forward. The immobile Molten Giant was instantly riddled with holes. Its Lava Shields and Inferno Shields couldn’t have defended against those gravity halos.

Where the halos traveled, fire elementium was shredded to sparks by the turbulent gravity, leaving massive holes in the Molten Giant’s body.

This beginner Fourth Grade Molten Giant crumbled after just five minutes in battle, proudly sacrificing itself in the line of battle!
