Saleen frowned and stopped the demonic spirits from their preparations.
The thing was definitely not a water type elent spirit. Its powers were far below the fire type elent spirit. It could be a level 11 elental creature, and it would not exceed level 11.
It could be dealt with using the Thunder Dragon Blaster, so there was no need for 3600 demonic spirits to prepare.
What made Saleen frown was that there were definitely elental creatures and furthermore, they were definitely as powerful as the water type elent spirit. The problem was that the thing was intelligent enough to find a scapegoat instead of showing up itself.
It was not done out of instinct, but through solid thought. If Saleen had never seen a fire type elent spirit personally, he would have been fooled.
Intelligent elental creatures were the most difficult to deal with. If the water fox had not been trapped in the divine power cage, Saleen would not have been able to take it.
Gosh, things just turned a lot more difficult! If the great head inquisitor showed up and ssed things up again, wouldn’t it be like saying that I have no chance in capturing this thing anymore?
If Saleen captured sothing like that, he would probably have to venture into the oceans over 10,000 miles away from the mainland, before he had any chance of finding any water elental creatures.
However, it was the most probable spot to acquire a water type elent spirit.
Saleen would go straight to the Imperial City of the Abyss instead, and there would be no need for him to show up at Separation Sea, if that was not the case.
The crevice at the bottom of the lake was over a mile long, and Truman finally retreated several steps, keeping a distance of 50 ters from the crevice. A huge hand extended out and a roar was heard. “Who interrupted my rest?”
“Truman, back away!” Saleen yelled. He gestured at Eleanor, who shot an arrow.
The arrow shot through the Magical Elent Tower and drew an arc in the water, hitting the hand that ca searching from the crevice. The arrow was coated with poison and the water elental creature was slow to react.
It did not mind having its hand grazed by the arrow, as the projectile was so small that it was like a human getting bitten by a mosquito.
The problem, however, was that the mosquito was venomous, and it was unable to withstand the venom. The creature let out a pained shriek.
Ouch!
Brrruumm...
The crevice suddenly cracked wide open. Truman retreated quickly, widening the distance between him and the creature to over 500 ters, which was behind the tower. Saleen was relieved. He saw a 100-ter silhouette leap from the crevice, stirring the bottom of the lake.
Two of the wardens that followed Saleen tried to dive to the bottom, but found that it was extrely difficult to go any further than 500 ters deep. Their level was not high enough and 500 ters was their limit.
The wardens returned to the surface and discussed among themselves, deciding the only thing to do was to fly back to Daliang City and report to the great head inquisitor. However, they were about 1000 miles away and were exhausted from the chase.
They had no choice but to rest on an island before returning to Daliang City. With that, they had to delay reporting by over 12 hours.
If the great head inquisitor decided to go to the lake imdiately, it would take him about 18 hours. That ant that Saleen had 18 hours to subjugate the water type elent spirit without being interrupted by anyone.
However, the problem was that the water type elent spirit chose not to show itself and had sent sothing else up instead.
The thing leapt and ford a level eight vortex under the lake, heading for the tower. It took the demonic spirits two Disperse spells to nullify the vortex.
The elental creature looked like a Blue Ice Maiden on the outside, but Saleen knew that it was like a water puppet, who seed to have developed a bit of intelligence.
Saleen deed the hundred ter tall thing as difficult to deal with. If it was a Blue Ice Maiden, it would have an elental core, but his net would not be able to capture the water puppet-like thing.
The net had lost all rule powers and was only extrely resilient and capable of shifting sizes. It was incapable of trapping the water puppet, which was liquid.
Furthermore, Saleen had to keep his trump card to himself while capturing it, as it would be more difficult for him to deal with the water type elent spirit, which was more powerful.
There was sothing even more powerful in the eye of the sea, and Saleen had no idea how powerful it might be.
“Truman, get back,” Saleen called and prepared to take the tower into the eye of the sea. He planned to charge as soon as the eye appeared and overwhelm the enemy with his firepower. The eye of the sea was like a portal, and there were many dangers lurking within.
Truman returned to the tower, and Jola followed suit cautiously.
The huge elental creature was still in pain as it threw a punch at the tower. A huge fist appeared in front of the tower and retaliated.
The move was called Mage’s Wrath, and was an earth magic spell. Saleen initially knew little about the spell, but he quickly realized why the spell was called the Mage’s Wrath after seeing the two fists clash.
The creature’s entire arm exploded after clashing with the earth elent fist. It might have been a level ten creature, but there was no way it was able to contend with a spell cast by over 3000 enchanters in the Magical Elent Tower.
To mages, combination magic was extrely difficult, but to enchanters, it was almost effortless due to help from the magic net. It was also why Saleen’s Magical Elent Tower was so powerful.
If it had not co equipped with such eerie equipnt, Saleen would not have dared to run all over the place, going so far to even bait the great head inquisitor in broad daylight.
Things did not end when the elental creature’s arm exploded. The fist conjured by Mage’s Wrath then landed onto the elental creature’s chest. The water elent froze imdiately, due to rule powers like Fossilization.
Over 3000 demonic spirits brought their power at the sa ti, resulting in a level eight magic spell with enough rule powers to subdue a level ten creature.
Saleen realized sothing at that mont. When power was gathered to a certain extent, it compensated for differences in level. However, the requirents for doing so were extrely steep. It was 3.600 demonic spirits versus one level ten elental creature, after all.
The elental creature’s chest froze and its water elent body was gradually converted to earth elent, turning into a huge statue. Saleen did not hesitate, flying out of the tower and putting that elental creature away into the dinsion stone.
Level ten elental creatures would serve well as soldiers. Furthermore, it was not the Blue Ice Maiden, but a water puppet.
If the elental creature refused to submit to him, Saleen would not mind Rossen devouring it. It would allow him to advance to level ten.
A thin, long fish sprung out of the crevice before Saleen was able to return to the tower, shooting freezing stars as it charged at Saleen.
Saleen would have laughed if he was not in the water. The elental creature’s intelligence apparently remained at the level of battles with magic beasts. It had yet to acquire inherited mories of ancient tis, which was in Saleen’s favor.
If it had been like the fire type that his teacher had subjugated, which was equipped with ancient mories, it would be very difficult to fight it.
Saleen conjured many light wisps, clashing with the elental projectiles. He had learned the nullifying techniques when he was still a low level mage. They cost ntal powers but conserved magic chords.
Saleen’s ntal powers were practically inexhaustible. The Ring of Cosmos amplified his ntal powers 64 tis. That ant that Saleen’s current ntal power reserves had reached that of a level 11 sorcerer, and maybe even higher than that.
If others reached the sa level, they would not continue to torture themselves, but Saleen insisted on training himself with his family badge every day without fail. He did not even stop torturing himself during the hundred-year training.
His ntal powers felt stronger than ever. Saleen even felt that if he cast a ntal spell, it would beco tangible and capable of reaching effects like elental magic.
The thin fish arched and sprung, arriving before Saleen in re seconds.
There was a very hard spike in front of the fish’s mouth, making it seem like a small Silverline Golden Spearfish. Saleen laughed and imbued Thundering Phantasm into it.
Six identical Saleens appeared underwater, all acting differently. The fish lost its focus right away. Magic beasts were not smart and acted according to their instincts. The fish searched with its ntal powers, hoping to find the true target.
Everyone saw the fish’s head, which was covered in rust-colored scales, explode. A magic nucleus flew from it and was caught by Saleen.
Saleen’s Thundering Phantasm was extrely effective against magic beasts, as they lacked any type of skills used for protecting their souls and their brains were also the most vulnerable part of their constitution.
It had only been searching the Thundering Phantasm using ntal powers, and that was enough to blow up its head.
Attacks that were entirely reactionary did not seem to be of much use, but in battle, an enemy that was incapable of separating illusions from true bodies ant that they had to deal with many enemies at once.
“Co out already. I’m here for you.” Saleen faced the huge crevice.
The lake water was dark and cold. Saleen put his Water Shield up and wrapped it around him. The transparent ball had lightning magic patterns coursing over it, sparkling with blue electricity.
Furthermore, he had the Figure of Fate, which ant that there was hardly anything that could end him in just a single strike.
He had left the tower with full intentions of making himself bait.
“Do you want to die so badly, human?” A calm voice was heard from the crevice. It was speaking in Ancient Myers language. Saleen laugh coldly, as he found it was another scapegoat, but a higher level one.
“Spare the chitchat. You’re a water type elent spirit, so talk to in Elentish instead.”
The voice from the crevice stopped, and a transparent monster ca out from the crevice. It was inappropriate to say that it was a monster, as the six ter-tall thing was of similar proportions to the Elental Envoy. It had three heads, six arms and four legs.
