Watching the four faces change repeatedly under his taunts, Pei Yan felt much better. He reached out beside the space rift and gently drew a line. As the rift grew larger, Pei Yan stepped aside and made a gesture of invitation, announcing, "Xiaodie, co out! Let everyone see your true form."
As soon as Pei Yan finished speaking, a giant butterfly over three ters tall with splendid wings slowly flew out from the space rift. This giant beast, playfully called Xiaodie by Pei Yan, released an intoxicating floral fragrance with each wing beat that filled the venue. anwhile, its body gradually shrank. After fluttering its wings more than a dozen tis, it had reduced to the size of an ordinary butterfly, affectionately perching on Pei Yan's shoulder, motionlessly observing the enemies in the arena.
"It was nothing more than an ugly bug I picked up on the Hell Plane, but after evolving it turned out quite beautiful. If I'm not mistaken, it's called the Fire-winged Emperor Butterfly, right?"
After he spoke, the butterfly on his shoulder seed to understand human speech, fluttering its wings in response. Pei Yan then turned to Moira and continued, "This butterfly's wing flapping has the ans to enchant the consciousness of others. Although without utilizing my own source energy, this enchanting effect isn't too significant on a Child of Origin. However, it can certainly cause a highly tense person to lose focus montarily, buying so ti to switch bodies."
After hearing Pei Yan's explanation, Moira finally understood the connection in this matter. Now knowing the butterfly's function, the four dared not carelessly inhale the alluring floral scent, and collectively covered their noses and mouths, contemplating how to proceed with the battle.
Seeing this move, Pei Yan waved his hand and ordered the Fire-winged Emperor Butterfly, "They already hate you to the core; you won't be of much use in the coming battle, so go back!"
After the butterfly sensibly circled above his head and returned to the parallel space, Pei Yan slowly clasped the faceplate back on his helt and said in a deep voice, "Your attack is over; now it's my turn to attack! If I only used ordinary energy slashes to fight you, I think you wouldn't be satisfied even if you lost. Next, I'll use a bit of my real skill. Are you ready?"
Although Pei Yan said this, his actions didn't seem to want to give the opponents ti to prepare. As soon as he finished speaking, he swung a long knife he had casually condensed toward the Round Table Knights.
One after another, energy slashes lashed out. After enduring the first few attacks, Exeter couldn't help but sneer, "Isn't this just the simplest concentrated source energy attack after all this talk? Do you not have any other ans of attack besides this?"
"Is that so? Just energy slashes?" Pei Yan laughed, "There's nothing I can do. In our place, there's an old saying: a single clever trick can work wonders everywhere!" As he said this, rather than continuing the rapid attacks by boosting the number of long swords like before, he focused seriously, slashing energy slashes one by one.
After more than a dozen energy slashes, the three people who had endured the energy slashes finally realized sothing was wrong. Previously, Pei Yan's attacks were just fast and dense. When their energy slashes confronted his attacks, both sides could cancel each other out into nothing. However, the current attacks saw their energy slashes getting sliced into segnts upon contact with Pei Yan's, whose energy slashes remained intact, repeatedly blasting onto their bodies.
"Sothing's wrong! His energy slashes are problematic!" After enduring several energy slashes and seeing his armor slightly cracked, Exeter exclaid in horror. He didn't even ntion the strong energy protection covering his armor. This armor, which had accompanied him throughout his battles and was now a church relic blessed with various spells, had enough defense power to withstand most attacks. Yet, now it had cracks under the seemingly unobtrusive energy slashes, which couldn't help but frighten him.
"There's a hidden attribute within his energy slashes!" Lanmalok keenly detected the issue and roared.
"What attribute? Why didn't I notice it!" Exeter asked, puzzled.
"If I knew, I wouldn't be this passive!"
Just as the three were flustered by the energy slash attacks, Pei Yan finally stopped confining himself to remote attacks, deeming the pressure sufficient. Continuing any longer might scare Moira into choosing to withdraw from the battle now. It was ti to deliver a fatal blow.
Pei Yan's disappearance from the original position imdiately drew the attention of the three Round Table Knights, and they quickly identified his attack direction. Lanloste reacted promptly, positioning himself in front of Moira to block the way, while Moira also sensed the impending crisis and chanted, "Space Lock! Ice Sealing Technique! Earth-based Delay Technique!"
Three consecutive magic spells were cast, imdiately locking the surrounding space and prohibiting spatial leaps. Simultaneously, two movent-slowing spells were enough to hinder Pei Yan's ghostly high-speed movent.
The magic spells truly seed to be effective. Forced out of a spatial leap, Pei Yan's figure appeared before Lanloste. However, just as Moira coordinated with Lanloste to strike back, Pei Yan's disdainful sneer was heard, and after an unsuccessful strike, he swiftly retreated.
"Be careful! Is his target the Witch?" Lanloste, missing with his sword, imdiately beca alert and shouted a warning.
But by this ti, Pei Yan had already moved in front of the target he had truly chosen to attack. Looking at the enemy suddenly appearing before him, Exeter was filled with anger. Pei Yan had picked what seed like the easiest target.
This anger soon transford into power. Exeter raised his longsword, roaring, "To dare look down on my existence this much? Then feel my rage properly."
In an instant, Pei Yan, who was suspended in mid-air, only felt the surrounding space being locked. At the sa ti, a massive concentration of source energy gathered and pressed around him, tightly locking onto his aura! At the sa ti, Exeter wielding the longsword abandoned all defense, channeling all his strength into his sword and charging toward Pei Yan.
"Thunder Dragon Strike!"
The longsword imbued with the destructive lightning attribute, under Exeter's control, pierced through Pei Yan's body like a bolt of lightning. As the two forms intertwined, Exeter already knew he had lost this battle.
The longsword hadn't actually pierced through Pei Yan. This man had opened a space rift on his own body, letting the longsword pass through. The rest of his body vaporized like a breeze, brushing past Exeter.
Two silhouettes fell from mid-air, and the vaporized particles regrouped into a human form. Pei Yan shook the long knife in his hand, no longer concerned with the unresponsive Exeter on the ground. Instead, he looked at the remaining three and provocatively raised the knife in his hand, saying, "Now it's your turn!"
