Chapter 129 - Battle Inside The Dungeon Part 2

Paeris furrowed his brows after hearing his words.

"Deal with my family sooner?"

"What are you waiting for? Kill them!" Elydir commanded the elves from his family once more, ignoring Paeris doubts.

Those four Mana Control practitioners charged towards Paeris Beihorn and the people from his family.

Elydir decided to act this time. He turned toward the human cultivators that accompanied him and said: "Get ready, we are going to fight them."

The humans nodded and followed Elydir, but their targets were the girls from the Glazed Lake Sect.

Elydir extended his hands out and made his bow appear before him. He looked at Caizhi's party and locked his perception on Ruolan and Xiurong. Somehow, he couldn't notice Jiayi very well and the information she was somewhere around there, faded from his mind.

That was one of the abilities the spirit inside her old book had.

He put two arrows in his bow and started to channel the skills of his family. A golden hue appeared around his body and arrows, since he was about to use the technique that gave him his title of "Golden Archer".

The golden light made his whole bow vibrate while the ability was getting ready, until it suddenly stopped. Elydir opened his eyes up at that time, shooting two arrows towards Caizhi's friends.

Bang!

The arrows were so fast that the humans accompanying Elydir were only able to see a golden dot twinkling, but everyone could feel the absurd amount of energy they had, because at the moment that he released them, they felt a fierce impact right inside their chests.

Caizhi saw that golden light and felt the huge quantity of energy it contained. Elydir was a Mana Perception initial-stage Realm cultivator and one of the Male Prodigies from the rank. It was only natural that a Qi Transformation cultivator like her, would be crushed by the energy he released. However, Caizhi had to make a move, or her friends might end up dying here.

She held her orb firmly and her whole body started to release a very stable aura. It was like she was the calm sea before a huge storm.

A thin screen of water started to spin in front of her and in less than two seconds it was already like a raging maelstrom, spinning in the air before her body.

She opened her hands and the vortex she just created expanded towards the sides, forming a huge spinning wall of water. She made sure to use hundred percent of her power in order to resist the golden arrows that were coming.

SHOOSH!

SHOOSH!

Two golden lines collided with her water vortex, ripping it apart easily. They pierced it as if it was a piece of paper, but a lot of their power was actually used to do that.

Although part of the energy from Elydir's technique dissipated on that collision, the arrows continued to fly towards his targets, since Caizhi's vortex was not enough to completely dissipate the Mana they contained.

Caizhi's face went pale since she used a lot of energy in that skill and at the same time, because she realized that the arrows were not stopped.

"Heh! Do you think Qi Realm practitioners could compare to Mana Realm ones?" Elydir mocked her from afar.

The two golden arrows were rapidly approaching Ruolan and Xiurong, when suddenly both girls were enveloped in a grey light and vanished from their place.

Caizhi's water vortex bought Jiayi some time and she was able to cast a teleportation spell on both girls.

They appeared hundred meters away, near the group of Paeris disciples that were still coming to the scene. Ilbrien, Finnea and the other three elves followed Paeris towards this place, but they were too slow to accompany him. However, they already knew what was happening, since Paeris made sure to inform them of his assumptions before he started to sprint ahead.

Everyone thought Elydir arrows were useless now, since his targets moved from their initial position, but suddenly, the golden glow around them intensified and they mythically made a curve in the air, streaking at a fast speed to where the girls just appeared.

Rolan and Xiurong felt the huge pressure coming their way and saw that golden light merciless reaching for them. They braced themselves and released every single bit of Qi they had inside their bodies to strike the incoming arrow.

Bang!

At the moment of the impact, they felt like it wasn't a golden arrow but a huge hammer that was trying to smash them.

"Garh!"

"Argh!"

Both girls spat a mouthful of blood, but they refused to be overpowered by that golden energy. However, they felt that the strength they had was not enough to avoid getting pierced and could only resign their life to fate.

But their god intercepted for them at this moment, since Finnea and Ilbrien quickly channeled their Qi Transformation initial-stage cultivation to support them from behind. The other members of the Beihorn family did the same.

Ruolan and Xiurong felt a huge amount of Qi helping them stabilize their bodies and resist the arrows.

After some seconds of that deadlock Elydir arrows finally lost their golden radiance and power, getting destroy by Ruolan and Xiurong strikes.

"Hah... Hah... Hah..."

The girls felt so tired that it seemed they have just run an entire marathon. They were forced to use a great part of her Qi at once, just to resist a single attack from Elydir, and that after it was weakened by Caizhi.

Ilbrien and Finnea saved their lives at the last moment, infusing their Qi to help them out.

They looked towards them with a weary semblance and thanked for what they have just done.

Elydir got a bit astonished that they were able to stop his arrows, but it didn't change anything inside his head. For him, those humans and elves were all dead already.

"What are you waiting for? Go and engage them in a fight already!" Elydir commanded the five humans from the younger generation.

They looked at each other and decided to follow his commands. They have seen how strong he was and rejoiced to be at his side right now.

The humans moved towards the party of elves that recently arrived while drawing their weapons out. A fierce battle was about to unfold between the two parties.

While their battle was about to start, Paeris was handling four Mana Control initial Realm cultivators on his own, but even though he was a Mana Control middle-stage realm and his Mana was tougher and stronger than of his opponents, he was having a hard time while dealing with four of them at once.

He blocked another blow from one of those four elves, but felt a fist hitting him hard on his back. He reacted quickly and kicked that practitioner back, making him fly away, however, two more enemies were already charging at him.

"Hah!" His aura expanded making it hard for them to approach, but unfortunately for him, each of them released their individual aura, making it clash against his.

His aura was suppressed by them while the third elf dashed fastly towards him and discharged his mana through a palm strike right in the middle of his chest.

Crack!

The sound of one of his ribs cracking echoed inside everyone's ears.

Paeris spat a mouthful of blood as he retreated some meters away from them. This battle was though and he knew that it would be really hard for him to leave it unscathed.

A very different brilliance flashed through his eyes as his body surged with a strange power. A huge red-like semitransparent torso started to take form behind him, involving his whole body inside. A tribal face appeared a bit after and made a strange roar, destabilizing the elves pressuring him and making them get away.

The Beihorn family was a family very connected to the Tribal and Forest Deities, and their powers were connected with those deities.

Paeris felt the energy coursing through his veins and he called the name of the Tribal Deity that was actually lending him power.

"Praetor!"

A huge red lance appeared in that figure hands and he charged forwards to fight once again. He ignored the painful sensation in his chest and chose to strike the weakest elf first. The one he successfully poisoned in the beginning.

After getting away, those elves had to take a bit of time to recompose themselves and Paeris took advantage of that to strike that weakened elf decisively.

His body was guided like a wild and ferocious beast and his huge lance pierced the elf from the Luberus family right in the center of his chest, ending his life in a quick strike.

However, his actions made those elves change their plans in order for them to defeat Paeris faster. They wouldn't be able to handle that form of his head on.

The three elves from the Luberus family looked at each other and one of them said: "Protect me!"

The other two nodded and rushed towards Paeris while executing their strongest skills. The one that stood behind pulled a longbow and started to charge the Luberus family techniques to shoot stronger arrows.

He positioned his longbow towards Paeris, but suddenly he changed his aim to the disciples of the Beihorn family.
