The mont Annan shattered the Wall of Ash with the Brilliant Sword.
The holy domain filled with the [Understanding] Elent automatically functioned, analyzing the nurous buff spells previously cast on himself by the Gray Professor; and with the [Strict] Elent, they all disintegrated...
After that, Annan imdiately started to feign charging up. The Gray Professor, lacking adaptive capabilities for the Radiant Elent, couldn’t perceive through that quality of light to see what Annan was doing inside.
It was even less likely for him to realize that Annan was actually grasping [Vatore’s Rite] in his left hand, silently activating it.
—— At the sa ti, the Gray Professor mistakenly assud that Annan’s Elental Power could directly reduce the energy of the Wall of Ash, so he would surely defend fully on the spot.
At this mont, he had no ti to continue casting new buffs on himself... for example, the most classic and useful spell of the School of Prophets, the "On" series spells.
Annan himself also mastered the spell "Death On: Ergency Teleportation".
This "On" series of spells can be preset and automatically trigger under certain conditions, releasing a spell or using an item—such as teleportation, healing, damage reduction, immunity, and so on.
When overlaid multiple tis, even a set of programming logic can be ford. Among them, the most common are ergency teleportation and ergency invisibility—becoming invisible when targeted by others, and teleporting away just before an attack hits.
The Idol School, also known as the buff machine school, possesses the most useful buff spells in all wizarding professions.
Among them, there is [Holy Stance], a spell that only needs to be cast once to max out one’s resistances in a short ti; [Distant Land], a spell that infinitely increases the distance to delay the hit of an attack; and [Mirror Stance], a spell which swaps positions with a mirror image to let the fake image absorb the effect of the skills, and then switches back to achieve immunity; along with [Bubble Stance], a spell which can cleanse all negative effects endured...
Combined with the Trigger Spells and Ons of the School of Prophets, as well as the Gray Professor’s mastery of the "Grey Elent", and his ability to resurrect indefinitely from the past...
In this era, the Gray Professor is nearly invincible.
Let alone his attack power—just talking about his ability to preserve life, even a real god might not be able to kill him.
At least Saul definitely can’t kill him.
Moreover, Saul probably can’t even beat the Gray Professor...
But these warning-type spells and resistance spells, though powerful, are aningless in front of the Elental Power.
Elental Power, being a higher-tier ability, has a higher priority and can penetrate through spells-ford resistances—just as the Grey Domain can also instantly kill players by ignoring their Curse Bindings and statuses.
Thus, the Gray Professor would montarily give up applying buffs to himself and decide to withstand Annan’s next strike with full force.
—— However, Elental Power is not omnipotent.
Elental Power only has a higher priority, and in the event of a conflict, Elental Power’s descriptions are applied first. But in terms of fine control and convenience, Elental Power is inevitably not as comprehensive as spells.
This is like a famous joke: the weakest resistance cannot be destroyed by battle, while the strongest thod to break through resistance is exactly battle itself.
If Annan doesn’t break through the Wall of Ash first and remove the buffs on the Gray Professor, then spells like [Decree: Dissolution] would be evaded or invalidated by the various spells entangled on the Gray Professor.
But it was his earlier laid trap—allowing him to successfully complete the [Dissolution] in one strike!
Annan heard the voice of Salvatore:
"This Decree spell itself does not inflict damage, nor does it act on the body or soul, so it can bypass many protective spells—such as protecting against instant death, soul barriers, and so on."
Because of this, it is not considered an attack and therefore does not trigger the defensive reactions of the Wall of Ash.
"This is a rather niche and high-end Gold-tier spell, its damage cos from [Personality]. Once the spell hits, it can temporarily imprint your values into the other’s personality, ignoring defenses."
As long as the gap in values between Annan and the other is wide enough—Under the invasion of Annan’s values, the other’s soul will instinctively judge its own personality as the "foreign body", and expel the conflicting parts.
That is his original personality,
"By the ti the spell’s effect ends, the other’s personality will beco riddled with holes. Then, this personality itself will be directly dissolved by you."
Therefore, even if the Gray Professor’s real body is far in the past, it will still be contaminated by Annan’s spiritual attack, "through the internet cables."
Since the damage caused by this spell is not from Annan but from the Gray Professor’s own soul, the Grey Elent will not store it as "mories".
If all of the Gray Professor’s Grey Elents were inside his body, he could indeed, in the first instance, instantly turn his not-yet-infected self to ash, killing himself. But his Grey Elents were not only all used to construct the Wall of Ash, but he also felt relaxed and glad for having blocked this strike and began to think about how to launch an offensive against Annan next.
He was completely unguarded and took the full blow of [Decree: Dissolution].
A sudden intense self-loathing erged within the Gray Professor’s heart.
