Chapter 2690 One Move to Determine the Outcome!
Now, Lin Yuan had an in-depth and reliable understanding of the Misfortune Fighter's abilities.
The Misfortune Fighter was a disaster beast and could bring fire raining down from the skies.
Everything that it comes into contact with, even feces, would turn into fervent flames.
This creature that resembled a Shiba Inu was extremely deadly.
Fusing Fire allowed the Misfortune Fighter to invade enemies through fire-elemental energy.
When fire-elemental energy was injected into other targets, it would be transformed.
The most terrifying part was that the Misfortune Fighter could allocate the transformed energy so that the Misfortune Fighter could remove the ability of any target weaker than the Misfortune Fighter and which shared the same space as it. The Misfortune Fighter could allocate all of the energy contained within other lifeforms.
The Victory Fish was very skilled at group combat, but it was very weak compared to the Misfortune Fighter.
If Chimey's grade was lower than the Misfortune Fighter and did not have the protection of Speak Spirit Singer and Sound Spirit Sacred Hall, Chimey's body would already have begun burning.
The Misfortune Fighter used its Elite ability, Misfortune Explosion, the most when it fought feys of the same level.
The flames produced by the Misfortune Fighter were extremely brutal and triggered explosive effects every second.
Once the Misfortune Fighter used the Misfortune Explosion, sparks would explode instantaneously, burning all the targets that were being attacked.
The explosive effects could break through armor, and the burning effects could trigger Fusing Fire.
While killing a target, the Misfortune Fighter's energy would also be replenished.
Lin Yuan looked at Xia Qing and could see the clear amazement and astonishment in her eyes.
Lin Yuan knew that Xia Qing had summoned the Misfortune Fighter so she could not only target his feys but him as well.
However, Lin Yuan had the protection of the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen, and it gave him immunity against the effects of fire elements.
With the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen's Stars and because it had absorbed fire-type Immortal bodies, the Misfortune Fighter would not be able to hurt Lin Yuan with fire-elemental energy as long as it had not reached Immortal Breed.
Lin Yuan had tested this ability in a previous battle with Zong Ze. Now, the ability was even stronger.
The Misfortune Fighter was unable to affect Lin Yuan in any way. Xia Qing did not immediately instruct the Misfortune Fighter to attack Lin Yuan.
Instead, the Misfortune Fighter began accumulating energy.
One after another, Misfortune Flame Lamps appeared on Xia Qing's side of the battleground.
The Misfortune Flame Lamps were able to attract fire elements.
Given that more than ten Misfortuune Flame Lamps had appeared, Lin Yuan knew that Xia Qing intended to fight a drawn-out battle.
Misfortune Flame Lamps' revealing abilities could not affect Lin Yuan because he did not have any feys that were skilled at stealth.
Unfortunately for Xia Qing, she was unaware of this.
When he battled anyone else, Lin Yuan could leverage the information he knew to stand on equal ground with his opponent. This would even apply when he battled Class 5 and above Creation Masters.
Ground-Penetrating Misfortune Flames and Chasing Flames Transmission were fire-type abilities that could be linked.
Ground-Penetrating Misfortune Flames allowed the Misfortune Fighter to transfer its own fire-elemental energy to its surrounding environment to alter it before using the fire-elemental energy in the environment to burn targets.
Meanwhile, for Chasing Flames Transmission, whenever a target was burned by Ground-Penetrating Misfortune Flames, the burning effects of Ground-Penetrating Misfortune Flames would be circulated around the other lifeforms in the space.
Just like Misfortune Explosion, most of the Misfortune Fighter's abilities could intensify the burning effects.
These burning effects were compatible with the exclusive skill, Incinerating Obliteration of the Soul.
Every time the target was burned three times, the effects of Incinerating Obliteration of the Soul would be activated, and the target's soul would be temporarily stunned. One instance of the effects might not cause much damage. But after three instances, there was a high chance that the soul would pass out.
The burning effects from the Misfortune Fighter's abilities could be easily transferred to others.
The obliterating soul's effects would also appear repeatedly during combat, adding variety to the battle.
If Xia Qing was battling someone else besides Lin Yuan, the obliterating soul effects could definitely tip the scales. After all, suddenly losing focus during an important battle would likely change the battle circumstances.
The deadly and controlling effects of Incinerating Obliteration of the Soul allowed the Misfortune Fighter to stand out as a fey with the Barren bloodline.
Body of Fire was an extremely strong self-preservation exclusive skill. It could also provide the Misfortune Fighter with a one-time boost.
Body of Fire enabled the Misfortune Fighter to fully fuse its body with flames, making its body a part of the flames.
Any external attacks it suffered would be absorbed by the flames to boost the flames. This raised the Misfortune Fighter's deadliness.
When the Misfortune Fighter encountered a strong enemy and extinguished the flames, it would return to the same state from before it had fused with the flames.
Although this would use up the Misfortune Fighter's vitality, it did give the Misfortune Fighter another chance to live and continue brandishing abilities.
Karma Misfortune Seed was a Diamond ability that could manipulate karma. It was similar to Ji Feng's Karma Sword Lily's abilities.
As long as two parties came into contact and sensed each other's presence, karma would form between them. If the karma crossed a line, it would turn into misfortune.
The targets afflicted with the misfortune seed would be even more severely injured by the flames.
It could be said that Karma Misfortune Seed would boost the Misfortune Fighter once during combat, allowing it to take control of two lives.
At important junctures, when the Misfortune Fighter gained a new life through Body of Fire, it would have a large impact on a stalemate battle.
The Myth Breed exclusive skill Disaster Seed Judgment would be linked with Karma Misfortune Seed.
The misfortune seed could also place obliterating soul effects on targets. Each misfortune seed would lead to the emergence of one obliterating soul effect.
When combined with Incinerating Obliteration of the Soul, the obliterating soul effects could be stacked up.
From the Misfortune Fighter's effects, Lin Yuan knew that Xia Qing had put a lot of effort into nurturing the Misfortune Fighter.
Otherwise, it would not have so many abilities that could be linked and complementary exclusive skills and abilities.
But regardless of how perfect the Misfortune Fighter's abilities were, Lin Yuan had a way to deal with them.
Firstly, the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen could fully restrain the Misfortune Fighter. The Misfortune Fighter could use whatever abilities or exclusive skills it wanted. Regardless of how many explosions or burning effects it unleashed, Lin Yuan would be kept safe by the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen.
The Sacred Sword Wielding Queen had absorbed Fifth Page Truth's sacred source lifeform and the source totems of Grace Sacred Hall's two rulers.
The Sacred Sword Wielding Queen was likely a product of the two rulers, so it had the same source as the two source totems. All of this culminated in the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen currently being a step away from reaching 9 Stars.
There were very few experts from the senior generation who had sacred source lifeforms with Stars as high as Lin Yuan's sacred source lifeform, much less experts from the younger generation.
Nonetheless, Lin Yuan did not underestimate Xia Qing because she had yet to use her sacred source lifeform.
Sacred source lifeforms were able to counter each other. It was not a guarantee that low Stars sacred source lifeforms were under the thumb of high Stars sacred source lifeforms.
During the gathering at the Return from Faraway Mansion, Zong Ze mentioned that he had once suffered greatly at the hands of Xia Qing's sacred source lifeform.
Lin Yuan was very curious about Xia Qing's sacred source lifeform.
Chimey was sufficiently strong, especially after it began drawing on the sun's energy.
It was just a shame that the Misfortune Fighter was skilled at endurance battles. Flames were both the Misfortune Fighter's combat tool and safe haven.
Chimey had used up a significant amount of energy taking on Xia Qing's three feys.
It was likely that Chimey would end up losing the battle against the Misfortune Fighter.
Lin Yuan conveyed his thoughts to Chimey.
Chimey did not insist on pressing on. It was well aware of the significance of this battle.
It would not be humiliated even if it insisted on continuing the fight and ended up losing.
But in order to boost the Radiance Federation's morale, Lin Yuan needed to win this battle with flying colors.
With a wave of its hand, four celestial maidens appeared from within the Sound Spirit Sacred Hall. The four maidens carried the Sound Spirit Sacred Hall over to Lin Yuan, and Chimey walked out of the Sound Spirit Sacred Hall.
At this moment, Chimey stopped attacking and putting pressure on Xia Qing. Instead, it let out a soft chirp and turned back to its original form before landing on Lin Yuan's shoulder.
Chimey was no longer battling and was now a spectator instead.
The Misfortune Fighter was skilled at flame combat. But Lin Yuan also had feys that were skilled at flame combat.
Lin Yuan thought about sending out Shiny to battle the Misfortune Fighter. But he soon gave up on the idea.
The Diamond/Fantasy Shiny could hold its own in a fight against the Misfortune Fighter.
Wind and fire elements were complementary. The burning flames would whip up air currents that stimulated wind elements.
An environment that contained wind would allow Shiny to stand its ground against the Misfortune Fighter. However, it would be a struggle for it to defeat the Misfortune Fighter.
Given that he understood Xia Qing's power, Lin Yuan decided to put an end to this battle swiftly.
Lin Yuan was more looking forward to the battle with Liu Jie than this battle with Xia Qing.
Although Liu Jie did not have a barren beast, the insect-species carcinoma feys that had transformed into fairies that he controlled were all just as formidable as feys with the Barren bloodline. Moreover, Liu Jie had carefully and painstakingly pieced his team together so the fairies were able to work together swimmingly.
Liu Jie's combat system was already complete. Aside from the fairies, Liu Jie had also evolved the other insect-species carcinoma feys.
Even members of royalty with Eternal Breed feys sometimes required a lot of effort and time to handle the disasters triggered by the Diamond X/Legend insect-species feys.
Lin Yuan could not say with certainty that he would be able to defeat Liu Jie without using his secret weapons.
With a wave of his hand, the Sky-Questioning Flaming Heart Mushroom released a large amount of spores.
Once the spores entered the environment filled with fire-elemental energy, they were unaffected by the Misfortune Fighter's abilities, and some of the weaker spores even became even more ample.
The Sky-Questioning Flaming Heart Mushroom had only gently shaken its cap, but it had released hundreds of thousands of spores floating across the arena.
Xia Qing had already issued orders to the Misfortune Fighter.
"Misfortune Fighter, once you are done with Misfortune Flame Lamps, use Fusing Fire, Misfortune Explosion, Ground-Penetrating Misfortune Flames, and Chasing Flames Transmission simultaneously."
The purple and red sea of fire that had already been boiling unleashed its might.
At this moment, Xia Qing suddenly felt her spirit being attacked by an external force.
The Misfortune Fighter let out a few pained howls.
The Sky-Questioning Flaming Heart Mushroom was a pinnacle Myth II fey that had been nurtured with perfect methods. Its attacking power could not be compared to regular Myth II feys.
The Sky-Questioning Flaming Heart Mushroom had used Seeping Flames, Body-Penetrating Flames, and Thought-Separating Flames together.
When the spores invaded the Misfortune Fighter, they attacked its mind, spirit, and soul first. Once the spores took over its heart and brain, its attack on the mind, spirit, and soul became even more savage.
With its mind, spirit, and soul gravely injured, the Misfortune Fighter stopped moving forward.
The Sky-Questioning Flaming Heart Mushroom's Seeping Flames allowed it to absorb the energy within the target's heart and brain and utilize it to its own benefit. It essentially used the opponent's energy to kill the opponent.
The Sky-Questioning Flaming Heart Mushroom's Body-Penetrating Flames did not have obvious effects.
The Misfortune Fighter was not afraid of the burns on its body. The burns on its body would not affect it in any way.
Lin Yuan had instructed the Sky-Questioning Flaming Heart Mushroom to use Body-Penetrating Flames because he wanted to use the Sky-Questioning Flaming Heart Mushroom to inhibit the Misfortune Fighter and prevent it from fusing with the flames.
Xia Qing had sensed her own spirit, mind, and soul being attacked because of Thought-Separating Flames' effects.
Xia Qing and the Misfortune Fighter were hit with the same injuries.
Under this torture, Xia Qing's body was on the verge of collapse and held back a groan of agony. Nonetheless, her fighting spirit had been severely shaken.
Lin Yuan thought, Unless my opponent is of a much higher level than the Sky-Questioning Flaming Heart Mushroom or is able to protect their mind, spirit, and soul, it will be very difficult for them to save themselves from the Sky-Questioning Flaming Heart Mushroom's attacks.
Since he had already made his move and his objective was to end this battle quickly, Lin Yuan ensured that the spores in the Misfortune Fighter's body had germinated before ordering the Sky-Questioning Flaming Heart Mushroom to use Crumbled Parasitic Cycle.
But a moment later, the germinated spores within the Misfortune Fighter and Xia Qing were sacrificed. Once they were sacrificed, they removed the energy in Xia Qing and the Misfortune Fighter's bodies before destroying the energy.
Xia Qing had not noticed Sky-Questioning Flaming Heart Mushroom's intangible attacks at all.
By the time Xia Qing thought about summoning her sacred source lifeform, it was already too late.
As the disheartened Mu Yan looked down from her stone pillar at Xia Qing, she could not help but think about how terrified she would be if Lin Yuan used such methods against her.
Before she even had the time to react, her mind, spirit, and soul would have already been seriously wounded. She would not have the courage to handle the threefold anguish from her mind, spirit, and soul for a second time.
Even someone like Xia Qing had lost to Lin Yuan's methods. It was no longer embarrassing that she had lost after going in completely unprepared!
Once Xia Qing regained consciousness, she was back on the stone pillar.
Xia Qing looked at Lin Yuan and pursed her lips tightly before saying a moment later, "With just that move, none of the members of the younger generation will be your match!"
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow. He knew that Xia Qing was blowing off steam.
However, it was not true that this move would be effective against anyone. At the very least, it would not work against Liu Jie!
