Chapter 1420: Darkness Maze, Dream Rules (1/2)
Zhan Ye’s initial combat strength was not that great. After Lan Huo’s Flame Lion had knocked away Zhan Ye, it obtained the chance to attack Chu Mu directly again.
Chu Mu took a glance at Zhan Ye. The reason why he had summoned it so early on was because he took into consideration the battles that would follow. If he could let Zhan Ye increase its strength to its peak sooner, then he would stand a greater chance of obtaining victory in the following battles.
“Huhu~!”
Zhan Ye got up again. As it was knocked away, Little Hidden Dragon had to face two Immortal rank opponents alone. This was difficult on Little Hidden Dragon as it had just reached pseudo Immortal rank a while ago.
“It’s still not dead yet?” Lan Huo swept a hateful glance at Zhan Ye.
It was just a Dominator rank soul pet, an insignificant fighting force in this Immortal rank battle. Lan Huo did not treat it seriously at all and decided to give it a fatal blow since it did not die from the last attack!
Zhan Ye’s initial speed was not that quick, so it naturally was not able to dodge a technique from an Immortal rank. It could only try its best to protect its vital parts when the opponent attacked it.
Intense heat rumbled and directly blasted Zhan Ye away again.
Lan Huo smirked and immediately turned his attention to Little Hidden Dragon, cooperating with his teammate to launch multiple attacks.
Hexfire had worked together for many years. Their combined fighting strength was much greater than their individual fighting strength.
“Ao!”
Little Hidden Dragon knew that it had to endure the pressure from the two enemies before Zhan Ye could raise its strength. Fortunately, its ghost property showed great effect when dodging enemy attacks and stalling for time, hence it would not be finished off quickly by its enemies.
Zhan Ye was also raising its strength constantly as the battle progressed. Although Hexfire had recognized Chu Mu, they seemed to have only watched the final match and did not know that Chu Mu’s Zhan Ye could keep raising its strength.
Increasing its strength without the enemy knowing was the best situation possible for Zhan Ye. Because, in order to defeat the six enemies, Zhan Ye would be a crucial breakthrough point when both sides were similar in terms of fighting strength.
Night continued slipping through the attacks from its two enemies calmly. The crossover between realistic dream and illusion made the two soul pets unable to properly distinguish the position of the real Night.
Zhan Ye was already at the back of the sun. The dark element here was denser than normal. Fire type was slightly suppressed by dark type here, the advantage of the environment neutralized the suppression.
Furthermore, the denser the darkness element in the surroundings were, the more effective the dreams that Night could create were.
A tail of fluttering white feathers crossed through the darkness. The places that it passed by had strangely changed......
Like an ink painting spreading out in the air, the environment that the two fire type creatures were in had suddenly changed. They had suddenly fallen into a bizarre darkness maze.
“Hmph, cheap tricks. You won’t fool me with this,” Lü Huo calmly scanned the illusion surrounding him.
Hexfire had been to many places, they had also encountered plenty of demon type creatures before. They were confident in their abilities in seeing through this kind of dream technique easily. Especially for Lü Huo who was rather proficient in soul remembrance. His knowledge regarding demon type creatures was fairly insightful. He could often judge the reality of the techniques through instinct alone.
“We seem to have been trapped by this dream maze,” said the female member.
“Relax, I will break it soon,” replied Lü Huo with confidence.
His eyes began flickering. Pale blue light sharply scanned the complicated darkness maze around him.
The maze was created by using chaotic torrents, darkness films, rampaging dark currents and messy black gales. A demon that truly possessed the power of darkness could generate those types of energy at will. However, it would not be able to unleash so much dark energy to create such a huge maze.
Hence, most of the energy that was in the darkness maze was actually fake. As long as they just passed through the fake area, it would naturally dissipate on its own.
“Follow me,” Lü Huo revealed a grin as if he was certain of the direction to take.
Lü Huo’s soul pet was a Green Flame Demon Queen covered in green flames. Green Flame Demon Queen bravely stepped into a dark torrent under Lü Huo’s order and did not use any defensive technique at all.
As expected, that dark torrent that looked menacing at first, as if one would be torn to shreds if they were to step on it. However, once it was actually touched, it suddenly dissipated on its own.
That was clearly an illusion.
Nü Huo saw that Lü Huo was able to determine the fake energy so easily and followed behind him in relief.
“This should be real, stay away from it,” Lü Huo pointed towards a dark gale energy that was rapidly spinning not far away from them.
