Chapter 324 Total War (13)

"It's over, it's so easy."

When he saw his fighting spirit cutting through the dragon's breath and heading straight towards Saipan, Edward already had a satisfied smile on his face.

There were several loud "rumbling" sounds, and Edward's fighting spirit had successfully hit the target.

The impact of the explosion caused the place where Saipan was to be blown up into rubble.

But just when he thought the blow was successful, another stream of dragon's breath shot out from the flying dust.

Seeing that the situation had changed, Edward immediately raised his sword and directly blocked the sudden dragon's breath.

Fortunately, the dragon's breath of the fourth-level true dragon was not too strong and would not pose a great threat to him. After receiving the dragon's breath forcefully, Edward just took a step back.

At this moment, the ashes in front of him had dispersed, and Edward was surprised to find that Saipan was still standing intact, while the rock wall behind him had been shattered into pieces by Edward's fighting spirit.

"Stupid human being, do you think you can hurt me just by relying on your fighting spirit? The soul is immortal." Saipan said, flapping his wings and pounced straight towards Edward.

Seeing the blurry figure flying toward him at lightning speed, Edward naturally did not dare to neglect, and he dodged Saipan's sharp claws.

There was only a "bang" sound, and the dragon's claw, which looked very vague, actually left a huge deep hole on the ground.

"If fighting spirit doesn't work, then try this!" Edward roared, raised the Shadow Oath filled with fighting spirit high, and struck Saipan's back with an extremely domineering Dragon Breaking Strike.

But Edward's sword did not deliver a fatal blow to Saipan as he imagined. Instead, it hit the ground as if it was submerged in the air, and for a moment the surging fighting spirit on the sword scattered the rocks on the ground.

A deep pit half a meter deep was left.

"Damn it, why can't you hit this thing?" Edward cursed secretly, but Saipan didn't give him much time to complain. He saw that the other party quickly turned his head and aimed at Edward with another dragon breath blow.

Although it didn't cause any harm to Edward, it still made him extremely irritated.

"Edward, let me deal with it. Soul Walker is probably not afraid of ordinary attacks." Ellie said, and she started to blow two wind blades towards Saipan.

Unfortunately, Ellie's magic also seemed to hit the air, passing directly through Saipan's body and hitting the stone wall behind him.

Facing this monster that they could only see but could not attack, Edward and Ellie were locked in a bitter battle.

Although Saipan is not very strong, even if he is hit head-on by his Dragon Breath, both of them can completely eliminate it with their own defenses, but the fact that they can only be passively beaten without being able to fight back always makes them very sick.

However, the anger in Saipan's heart at this moment was even worse than the two of them. Being naturally proud, he was helpless for the first time by two humans.

Although their attacks seem to have no effect on themselves, their own attacks cannot harm their opponents at all.

He had no idea that the dragon clan in the outside world had been defeated by humans long ago, and always thought it was a huge shame.

But after the dragon's breath he spat out with all his strength was easily blocked by Ellie's wind shield, Saipan became completely angry.

He roared and hovered into the air, and began chanting incantations in dragon language.

"Edward, stop him quickly! That's the soul storm in the dragon spell. He wants to summon the soul power here." Ellie, who is proficient in all kinds of spells, knew exactly what the dragon wanted to do when she heard it.

But having said that, it is extremely difficult to stop a monster that can be seen but cannot be touched from chanting a spell.

Finally, Saipan's spell was successfully completed under the useless attacks of Edward and Ellie. Along with his roar, a dark blue dragon's breath mixed with strong wind poured down towards the two of them.

"Chaos Barrier!" Faced with the special dragon language magic, Ellie immediately opened the strongest dark-type protective barrier. When the gray-black barrier opened, Saipan's attack also arrived in front of her.

I saw the dark blue dragon's breath like a downpour, hitting the protective wall of the barrier and causing waves of ripples.

After the two sides were in a stalemate for a few seconds, Ellie's excessive magic consumption made her feel exhausted.

A trace of blood began to ooze from the corner of Ellie's mouth.

"Ellie, are you okay?" Seeing Ellie struggling to hold on, Edward felt deeply uncomfortable.

"Don't worry, I can still support you for a while."

Ellie forced out a smile, turned back to Edward and said, "But we must find a way to break his barrier. As long as the power to maintain his soul disappears, the soul will dissipate immediately. But right now we don't know how to support him at all.

Where is the power thing?"

"Something that supports his power." Edward looked around, "Unless it's something he wants to protect, it must be the crystal. If Ellie continues to support it, I'll seize that crystal."

Ellie nodded with difficulty, and then increased the magic power again, expanding the range of the barrier a few points more.

Taking advantage of this gap, Edward immediately stepped out of Saipan's attack range from the edge of the barrier.

The moment he escaped from Saipan's attack, he immediately ran towards the crystal.

As soon as he got close to the crystal, a huge force immediately enveloped him.

Edward felt that his feet suddenly became extremely heavy, as if a huge mountain was pressing on him.

However, he still gritted his teeth and tried his best to lean towards the crystal.

"Stop! Don't get close to that place." After Saipan noticed that Edward was close to the crystal, he immediately stopped attacking and turned his head towards Edward, trying to block Edward's move.

But just when he got closer, he saw a huge dark purple six-pointed star barrier suddenly appeared under him.

"I will not let you get close to Edward's binding of the six-pointed star!" At this moment, Ellie drove the last bit of magic in her body and used the last resort - the strongest binding barrier in black magic. In the face of the powerful black magic,

Even Saipan in soul form cannot compete.

The huge dragon body was immediately restrained by the six-pointed star barrier and unable to move.

Seeing Edward's hand slowly reaching towards the crystal in mid-air, Saipan struggled desperately to escape from the shackles of the barrier, but all his actions seemed so powerless under the strong restraint of the slowly rotating black-purple barrier.

.

When Edward's hand finally held the crystal firmly, the barrier under the crystal suddenly burst into an extremely dazzling light.

At the same time, Saipan's body began to become increasingly blurry.

"Stop, do you know what you are doing!" With Saipan's final roar, his body finally completely disappeared into the air, leaving only the six-pointed star barrier at his feet, still shining with dim purple.

light.

"It's finally settled. I didn't expect that dragon clan to be so difficult to deal with." Edward said, panting and walking down the altar where the crystal was. To be honest, he had exhausted the last of his strength at this moment.

Just now, in order to fight against the power of the guardian crystal, he almost exhausted all his fighting energy.

"Here, Ellie. See if this is the thing with great magical power that Merlin said." Edward said and handed the crystal in his hand to Ellie.

Ellie was too tired to speak at this moment. She just observed the crystal in her hand carefully for a while.

Suddenly, her eyes became extremely surprised, and even her hands holding the crystal began to tremble slightly.

"What's wrong with Ellie? Is there something wrong?" Edward couldn't help asking after seeing Ellie's strange look.

"This, this is the Sage's Gem, which is called a holy object by our magicians and can enhance the magic power of the holder to the maximum extent.

It is said to only exist in legends, but it actually appeared in this cave. If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would be unbelievable." Ellie explained with a trembling voice.

"The Philosopher's Gem? I think it's just a special stone. How can it be so powerful?"

"Yes, no doubt, this is the Philosopher's Gem."

A voice that seemed strange yet familiar to Edward suddenly sounded from behind him.

"I didn't expect that you could actually get rid of the guardians and get the gems, which saved me a lot of effort.

To express my gratitude, I will let you die happily, hahaha!"

Edward immediately turned around and saw a man wearing a black magic robe slowly walking out of the darkness.

That person was none other than the Chaos Dark Wizard Paraste who completely killed Alaba on the unknown hill, took away the Book of the Living, and walked away.

But the robe he was wearing looked quite shabby at the moment, as if he had just fought a fierce battle with others.

"It's you!" Edward stared angrily at the powerful opponent in front of him. He naturally knew the opponent's strength. Even if he has fully recovered his strength now, there is no guarantee that he can defeat the opponent, because Ellie once said that his strength and

Merlin is on the same level.

"Haha, we meet again.

I said last time that I will definitely take your lives when I meet you again, and now it is time to fulfill my promise." Paraster walked towards Edward and Ellie with a grin, and at this moment, countless dark

Colorful ice crystals were already suspended behind him.

"Okay, you two prepare to die." As soon as Paraster said the word "death", the ice crystals shot towards the two of them in overwhelming numbers. Although Edward still had the energy to dodge at this moment, if he got out of the way, then

Behind him, Ellie will face the fate of being shot through the heart by thousands of arrows.

"I serve as a shield!" Faced with this situation, Edward did not hesitate to set up a shadow oath, mustered up all his fighting spirit, and used his own body as a shield to block Ellie, just like his father Havertz ten years ago.

Just like blocking that deadly dragon's breath for him.

In an instant, blood splattered all over Edward's body, and countless ice crystals pierced Edward's leather armor like sharp arrows and pierced into his body.

"No! Edward! Leave me alone, get away!" Seeing Edward who was beaten to a bloody pulp by ice crystals, Ellie cried and asked Edward to leave quickly.

"Don't be ridiculous, I won't abandon you even if I die. I promised Merlin that I will take good care of you..." Before Edward could finish his words, he felt a fishy sensation in his throat and spit out a large mouthful of blood.

"Oh? The hero saves the beauty, then I will help you." Paraster snorted coldly, and a huge black ice pick immediately appeared in his palm.

"Die!"

Seeing that the huge ice pick was about to penetrate Edward's body, Ellie didn't know where she got the strength to push Edward away.

With a "bang" sound, the ice pick rubbed against Ellie's shoulder and pierced the stone wall behind her, leaving a huge hollow.

Although Edward was scarred, fortunately he was not fatally injured.
