The calm water suddenly changed, with schools of fish circling away from Feng Yuan and his group. Jellyfish flickered with lightning and suddenly exploded, golden lightning raged through this area, but fortunately, Xiao Ji’s "Air Shield" prevented the lightning in the water from breaking through the bubble’s protection.
The vines summoned by Ah Mu were even fearless of the lightning, and under Ah Mu’s guidance, the massive vines led the lightning into the ground to completely eliminate it.
"The real test has begun."
Feng Yuan couldn’t help but remind them aloud. The previous jellyfish and schools of fish were just appetizers; now was the true mont of attack from the Sea God jellyfish. Dou Yanlan solemnly nodded and said,
"Got it, Ah Chen, have Ah Mu weave a protective barrier around us using vines connected to the ground. The first wave of attack from the Sea God jellyfish should be... the tidal vortex, correct."
Although different jellyfish gemstones have varied attack thods, the overall order of attack doesn’t vary much. The attack thods might differ slightly, but the first formal attack is always aquatic, as the Sea God jellyfish hasn’t fully appeared at this stage.
If unable to withstand this phase, there’s still a chance to retreat. After this stage, the attacks from the Sea God jellyfish will beco more aggressive, making it much harder to withdraw then.
The water quickly changed, and the calm water was broken by imnse force. The surrounding water rapidly rotated, and blades of ice condensed within, cutting the vines like dancing sharp blades.
According to Dou Yanlan’s requirents, Ah Mu controlled the vines to erect a barrier around them. With the vine barrier’s protection, the ferocious current and icy blades did not significantly affect the bubble where everyone resided.
With a wave of its claw, Agunas had a fiery red crystal stone appear in its hand. It looked at Feng Yuan and said,
"You haven’t equipped the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound with a Domain Crystal."
"I don’t yet know what’s suitable for it. You wouldn’t want to let it use the Fla Domain Crystal, would you? That thing could harm others."
Feng Yuan said while glancing at the red crystal stone in Agunas’s paw. Even though he couldn’t figure out the crystal domain type, seeing its appearance, he could guess it had sothing to do with flas.
Besides, in this underwater environnt, how effective could a Fla Crystal Domain be? Once activated, the power of Ah Mu’s ultimate move would be affected.
"If you don’t use the Crystal Domain, do they really have a chance?"
"Anyway, I believe in them. Moreover, if they couldn’t handle it, Dou Yanlan wouldn’t have told beforehand. So I think they definitely have a way."
Feng Yuan smiled, believing that Dou Yanlan and Qi Chen wouldn’t be the type to suffer just to save face. If they weren’t confident, they would have told him.
Moreover, the first round of formal attack didn’t shake Ah Mu’s vine-woven defenses. The vortex flow was weakened to the extre in the vine jungle. The vines sprouting from the ground couldn’t be destroyed by these water flows, as for those high-speed spinning ice blades within?
Although they could damage the vines, Ah Mu had an abundant energy reserve. Moreover, it only needed to guide the Power of Nature to restore the vines. The damage caused by re ice blades couldn’t significantly impact this vine defense line.
Even when the attack clearly didn’t affect everyone, the Sea God jellyfish continued the attack as per its program. After a while, the chaotic water subsided, and the water area regained calm, except for the sedint stirred by the vortex, which affected visibility. It seed there weren’t any other problems or dangers.
"Looks like this round of attacks has ended, but what will the next attack be? Jellyfish Bombs or Sea’s Roar? Or sothing stranger?"
Feng Yuan muttered while rubbing his chin. The Sea God jellyfish’s attacks followed a certain pattern, but the attack thods of each jellyfish gemstone differed sowhat. Feng Yuan didn’t know what thod this jellyfish gemstone would use for its second attack.
The only thing certain is that the second round of attacks is generally explosive. To prevent it, the best way is to occupy every inch of surrounding space, as physical or phantom explosions require an origin point, and that point cannot appear inside material containing energy.
But can Ah Mu’s vines occupy all the surrounding space?
Dou Yanlan pondered a bit, then looked at the Hao Chun Bird on Qi Chen’s shoulder and said,
"Ah Chen, have the Hao Chun Bird use a vine web to cover the surroundings, and Ah Mu continue to reinforce the vines near the bubble."
"Uh... should we let Ah Mu try to occupy all the surrounding space?"
Qi Chen spoke hesitantly, thinking that this approach didn’t seem wise, because of the Hao Chun Bird’s nature, its vine web would have explosive effects. Using the vine web now, wouldn’t that further strengthen the second attack’s power?
Dou Yanlan didn’t explain and said,
"If I’m not mistaken, doing this should effectively avoid the second round of attacks."
Qi Chen glanced at Dou Yanlan in doubt but didn’t ask further. At this mont, Cotton was filling the gaps between Ah Mu’s vine barriers with bubbles under Dou Yanlan’s arrangent.
Xiao Ji’s "Air Shield" remained active, engulfing the bubble and providing protection. Only the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound wandered about not knowing what to do.
After all, this environnt was too unfriendly for it. Underwater, most of the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound’s ultimate moves would be weakened. Plus, its attacks were mainly close combat, and it didn’t have many defensive ultimate moves, so the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound couldn’t contribute much.
Shaking its ears, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound turned to look at Agunas, rembering the conversation between Feng Yuan and Agunas. However, activating a Fla Attribute Crystal Domain would interfere with other Spirit Beast’s ultimate moves.
Its ears drooped, and the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound let out a low whimpering sound.
Just as everyone completed their preparations, the fish school returned. Unlike before, these glowing little fish were now round and plump, with a strange glow sparkling within their transparent bodies.
Like a spider web, the densely spread vines exploded violently upon contact with the fish school. The vines laid by the Hao Chun Bird had no defensive capability, but their explosive power was not weak.
Moreover, during this ti, the Hao Chun Bird laid many vines, which triggered a chain explosion upon contact, boiling the entire water area. The terrifying explosion impacted Ah Mu’s established defense; even Xiao Ji’s "Air Shield" was severely affected.
Compared to the previous phase’s attack, this ti the Hao Chun Bird’s vine explosion directly caused significant damage to Ah Mu’s underwater vine jungle.
Qi Chen couldn’t understand why Dou Yanlan made such a request. However, at this ti, Dou Yanlan saw the huge light shadow extending from afar, with corners of her mouth slightly raised, and said,
"As I expected~"
"The second phase attack was originally supposed to be multi-round, but due to instantaneous triggering, caused a misjudgnt, thus the third phase and the second phase proceed simultaneously? Quite a risky move."
Feng Yuan said while rubbing his chin, now understanding Dou Yanlan’s plan. Although risky, it was effective because the second phase’s explosion didn’t distinguish between friend or foe. If not for the fact the Sea God jellyfish gemstone was non-living, such a situation would not have occurred.
The enormous luminous tentacles were much thicker than the vines summoned by Ah Mu. The appearance of the Sea God jellyfish posed great pressure to both Qi Chen and Dou Yanlan, even though it was non-living.
The massive jellyfish slowly approached everyone, with circle after circle of rotating floating Ice Crystal Pyramids spinning around it.
The Sea God jellyfish illuminated this water domain like a giant sun in the water. However, at this mont, a new school of fish ford; buoyed by the explosion’s energy shock wave, the fish school was generated right behind the Sea God jellyfish.
The rigid fish school didn’t avoid the Sea God jellyfish. Thus, when the Sea God jellyfish waved its tentacles in preparation to attack, the school of fish moved as well, colliding with the jellyfish in an instant, releasing strong energy.
"This..."
Qi Chen was stunned at the self-exploding Sea God jellyfish, not expecting such a thing to happen.
"Ah Mu! Cotton! Prepare to block the opponent’s attack!"
Dou Yanlan didn’t explain further but shouted loudly. Though the Sea God jellyfish was montarily hampered by its own attack, that didn’t an it was resolved. Moreover, with the third wave beginning, the difficulty would rise once again.
