188 Tribulation Calamity! (1/2)

Lucio looked at Krune and laughed.

”This time, I won't just stay put receiving your attacks. It would be of no use, after all. But don't worry, I won't hurt you... much.”

Krune didn't care. In fact, it would be even better! Krune then changed back to his wisp form and immediately took his 38 Shields out. They started to orbit around Krune at high speeds, and one could see each one with a different Element.

Krune, of course, immediately took distance. He has never been a close combat fighter. After that, 30 of his Shields separated from him and moved in Lucio's way in various directions.

”Tribulation Thunder Line!”

Immediately, the Lightning Element plus Tribulation Lightning hit the closest shields, and from there, it followed to another one around Lucio. Thunder line was supposed to be a straight-line attack, but thanks to Krune's flying shields positions, the attacks can change route and confuse the enemy. That made it very difficult to know which Shield would be the one to send the attack.

Lucio saw that and snorted.

As soon as the thunder line was about to hit him from the side, Lucio raised his hand as if he was going to block it.

Krune saw that and wanted to smile. Unfortunately or not, his wisp form doesn't have a face to start with.

Just as the attack was about to be blocked, something unexpected happened. The Tribulation Thunder Line was supposed to move in a straight line after leaving a Shield, but surprisingly, it made a curve!

Lucio didn't have time to adjust, and the attack passed right through his defense. Sure enough, Lucio was hit!

Right after, several other Tribulation Thunder Lines hit at the same time.

”That's what you get for looking down on me, old geezer!”

But suddenly, Krune heard a voice behind him.

”Is that so?”

Krune was startled and only had enough time to reposition the 8 Shields that he left behind for his protection.

Boom!

His shield wall was struck by a powerful fire-lightning attack and was sent back against Krune. He did his best to stop the incoming shields, but they still hit him and sent his core flying back.

Krune was confused for a second, but when he looked in the direction where his Tribulation Thunder Line hit Lucio, he noticed a congregation of spiritual energy dissipating. Immediately, Krune understood what was happening.

'That wasn't the old geezer from the very start, it was nothing more than a spiritual energy clone! His one is also a lot better than the Elemental Ones that I and the others used in the past. Even after hitting it, I didn't notice any difference until it started to dissipate.'

But Krune wasn't sad. If anything, he was excited!

'I guess I know how it works, I will try to do that later as well.'

Lucio didn't continue his attack after the first hit. He only looked at Krune and said.

Only now did Krune pay attention to his Master. That was right, he could feel that Lucio's cultivation was the same as his.

”Hmph! Practice makes perfect, it won't work twice!”

Krune then controlled his Shields and started to attack again. This time, he only sent half of his shields out while he kept the other half with him.

Lucio didn't try to block Krune, he only dodged while approaching him at high speeds. But that made Krune amazed! After all, Krune is using his Tribulation Lightning movement at 80% of the power. But his Master, with the same cultivation and without the Tribulation Lightning, was even faster than him!

'How's that possible?!'

Lucio then started his attacks.

”Lighting Palm.”

”Azure Dragons.”

”Meteor Shower.”

While using several attacks of various elements, Lucio still looked calm and composed.
