Chapter 185: Masters of the Four Factions (Part 3)
Exactly, it's the heart. When Minsia grasped the fruit, everyone felt a kind of suffocation and pressure as if their hearts were seized.
Compared to the factions skilled in direct combat, the secret techniques used by Minsia are more like 'cursing chants', defeating opponents through various indirect means.
During the battle, Tilan, who originally held the advantage, suddenly felt a pain in her chest, followed by a rush of blood to her throat. Her body immediately lost its strength, almost getting cut by the approaching blade light.
What is this...? Her gaze swept over, seeing the deep red fruit held in the red-robed woman's hand, and she understood.
It turned out to be the 'Curse' secret technique.
This type of secret technique requires quite harsh conditions to perform, but the effects are astounding, this time crushing the heart, and sometimes even ripping the soul.
Despite coughing up blood and having heart damage, Tilan still risked injury to cut off one arm of Cabernet, disabling most of her opponent's combat power.
She was originally faster than her opponent, and with the intense augmentation of true red like blood, even a master with flawless blade skills could not avoid the dead angle from her speed, losing an arm.
After losing an arm, Cabernet found it even harder to handle the girl's storm-like attacks, becoming more dangerous each time, and at this point, the array prepared by Masgley finally completed.
Like a starburst, everyone entered the vast universe, unable to distinguish up, down, south, or north, Tilan's movement and attack slowed down after losing a reference point and foothold.
"Sky Dome Scene: Meikal's Foolery"
The world was divided into deep blue mirrors that reflect light and perception, causing transcendent beings trapped inside to become lost, unable to find a way out.
Facing the bizarre mirrored world, Tilan temporarily lost track of Cabernet, allowing the master with only one arm to escape the battle.
Clatter—
A scythe light flashed, and all the mirrors shattered around, yet behind the mirror was still another mirror, reflecting from all angles this silver-haired, red-eyed girl. No matter how she swung the scythe, she couldn't find the way out of this mirror labyrinth.
After trying several times, Tilan shook her head and calmed down, she began to reverse the previous secret technique, restoring the magic power of the Demon Sequence back to the Withering Sequence.
Indeed, the magic power of the Demon Sequence can make one impulsive and frantic. If it weren't for her talent being static, crystal, and healing, she wouldn't dare to hastily use such secret techniques.
When the girl was about to recover and heal the internal injuries, her just-healed heart began to beat violently again, pulling her nerves, and she furrowed her brow and then experienced a sharp pain in her chest.
'Hmph.'
A flash of cold silver-gray light flickered in her eyes, the blood surging within her suddenly became icy, nearly freezing, suppressing the heart on the verge of an explosion to calm down again. In this state, her heart allowed only one beat every twenty seconds, making her body unusually quiet.
After temporarily resolving this targeted heart attack, Tilan looked at the world full of mirrors and decided not to use any fancy skills.
Originally, she didn't want to use this.
As her progression in Sequence 6, its name is Withering Sequence 6: Will-o'-the-Wisp Songstress, and this profession genuinely enhances abilities in the soul consciousness field. This means that the various secret techniques and abilities she used before did not apply the special effect boost of her profession.
Taking a deep breath, Tilan slightly parted her lips. At this moment, there was no sound in the outside world, but in the field of soul consciousness, an invisible breeze began to rise, growing larger. Not only the three masters in battle but even the spectators couldn't escape, the formless ghostly wind seeped into the soul, tugging at consciousness, causing dizziness, losing clarity. If one were to fall asleep now, they would sleep forever, because under the blowing of this ghostly wind, the individual's soul consciousness would become weaker, unraveling like threads of fabric until it disintegrates and disappears in annihilation.
"Stop, stop, stop!" The three masters still battling held their soon-to-collapse heads and hurriedly shouted to stop. If the ghostly song continued, those present would all report to the Netherworld.
"We surrender." At this point, there was no point in holding on, originally they were using numbers against one, with three against one, and they could only trap this girl, not wanting to but could not hold on and had to admit defeat.
Thinking carefully, even transcendent beings of the same Sequence 7 couldn't withstand the lethal moves of these masters, whether it's the Glass Sword Slash of Second Voice or the Stacked Shadow Heavy Blade of Cabernet, they're extremely difficult attack methods, plus the Heart Explosion Curse of Minsia, this was still the first time seeing someone endure twice and continue fighting lively. Finally, the Boiling Blood Devouring Heart Secret Method used by her was also forcibly suppressed and resisted by the opponent, the first time seeing someone so relentless, directly freezing their blood, forcing the heart to stop beating.
As for the formation layout of Masgley, if not for the three consecutively entangling this songstress girl, making it hard for her to focus on controlling the Heart Image World, it would probably be difficult to even break it.
One has to admit the opponent indeed has confident strength, this duel lost, the four were convinced sincerely.
'Rinflower Sparrow' Kajelin looked at the people around, seeing them all silent, knowing it was unavoidable this time.
"Alright, since everyone thinks you are strong enough, I'll join your camp too." Although defeated, Kajelin still didn't fall behind in words.
For her strong posturing reply, Tilan didn't mind, this time she simply adjusted her collar and then walked forward, introducing herself first, and then everyone present realized and greeted each other, introducing their origins and representing factions and so on.
In this way, over the next two weeks, Tilan toured and visited many transcendent factions in the White Maple Star Domain, gradually understanding the local situation and slowly establishing connections.
Seeing that she hadn't seen herself during this time, 'Rinflower Sparrow' Kajelin was a bit angry but didn't dare to question face-to-face. Fortunately, the people around her noticed she was unhappy and slowly consoled and explained.
"Lady Kajelin, please remain calm and not impulsive at this moment."
"Why? I'm the one who has to stay calm, whether I am the songstress of the White Maple Star Domain or she is. Now everyone revolves around her."
"This... Lady Kajelin needs to understand, even if Miss Tilan isn't a songstress, the strength she showed that day is absolutely a genius among geniuses."
"Perhaps you find it hard to understand this evaluation, let me put it this way, actually defeating the representatives of the four factions' masters, is still not her limit, didn't you see she didn't even use secret techniques related to the songstress? If she used songstress-related secret techniques for interference, support, influence, etc., maybe the four people wouldn't even strike before already being defeated."
"This?" Kajelin recalled something.
"Is her mastery in the songstress field also very high?" She was somewhat incredulous, how could someone be adept at everything?
"How Miss Tilan persuaded Lord Masha, I don't know the specifics, but hearing the descriptions of those present at the time, the two seemed to have engaged in quite intense mental confrontations."
"Think about it, even the top Moon Level Songstress Lord Masha failed, do you still think Miss Tilan is weak in this aspect?"
"This..."
