Chapter 1724 - 1720: Iron Shavings
Despite Lux not having seen much of Yang Yu’s battles, judging from Yang Yu’s previous performances, it was clear that Yang Yu was a thorough warrior with extremely weak air capabilities.
Flying into the air was relatively safe.
Riding on the convenience brought by dense magic power, Lux didn’t even need to chant complicated spells to come and go freely in the sky.
The wild wind howled, and the gigantic tornado continuously contracted inward, gradually shrinking Yang Yu’s space for movement.
Yang Yu remained calm, swinging the sword blades in place, shaping his Skill.
The Golden Glass created by [Heavenly Step] might not last long in Lux’s dense magic power, and he could possibly sense the specific locations of each Golden Glass.
A similar scene had happened before Yang Yu’s group arrived here.
The distant experience might be forgotten by Yang Yu, but he definitely would not simply forget the experiences of the past few days.
For players, within days of experience, there might exist possibilities of strategy!
Pieces of Golden Glass rapidly formed in the air, and Lux instantly understood Yang Yu’s intent.
Praising Yang Yu’s courage, Lux diverted his focus to instantly stir Yang Yu’s newly created Golden Glass with thick magic power.
As soon as the Golden Glass was constructed, it was immediately crushed by Lux’s magic power!
The entire process from the creation to destruction of a piece of Golden Glass took less than half a second, yet Yang Yu relied on precise calculations to leap from the ground into mid-air, revealing a dagger.
Lux’s expression remained unchanged, as more blackness wrapped around his Holy Sword, completely consuming it.
Once the pitch black completely enveloped the Holy Sword, golden flame ignited on the sword again.
Lux organically combined Holy Light with Fallen magic power, drawing massive amounts of magic power into the Holy Sword.
As his arm swung, various debris carried by the storm obeyed Lux’s command, tumbling and crashing towards Yang Yu, blocking all paths forward for Yang Yu.
Unexpectedly to Lux, Yang Yu chose a path that was nearly insane.
Dodging two or three modules, constructing a new piece of Golden Glass, Yang Yu surprisingly propelled himself into the storm.
Activating [Climbing], Yang Yu firmly clung onto the massive squares, surging along with them in the storm.
Occasionally, the squares surging in the storm collided with each other, but as long as direction was controlled properly, being squeezed between the squares could be avoided.
With such a powerful storm activated, Lux was destined not to be able to manipulate every square within the storm at will.
For convenience, Lux almost simultaneously mobilized a majority of the squares in the storm.
Despite forming a complex path of obstruction, it also made the storm feel empty and hollow.
Lux’s original intention was to pull Yang Yu into the storm and use the colliding squares to crush him.
Yang Yu actively darting into the storm ruined all of Lux’s plans.
After passing through once, the traveling squares would roll into the storm, but by then, they already couldn’t match Yang Yu’s pace.
Facing gale winds, activating [Climbing], Yang Yu moved swiftly on the squares in the storm, and as squares above and below drew close, Yang Yu climbed to the upper square in a nearly crazy manner.
Such thought patterns were unprecedented for Lux.
If Lux, in flesh and blood, were to traverse this storm repeatedly, several lives wouldn’t suffice; yet Yang Yu could nonchalantly navigate such perilous circumstances.
In a blink, Yang Yu climbed much higher than Lux’s position, reaching a zone where the wind was weaker above.
Leaping from the top square lifted by the storm, Yang Yu unleashed [Heroic Leap], pounding towards Lux’s head.
Lux didn’t dodge; Yang Yu daring to launch such an attack was the best opportunity for Lux.
Alas, diving leaps couldn’t abruptly change position in mid-air, making it the perfect target for enemies.
Grasping the Holy Sword tightly, absorbing the surrounding magic power swiftly, Lux’s sword edge emitted deep blue light, as if a blue ribbon with white clouds was draped over the blade.
This was Lux’s signature technique, also his must-kill skill [Sky-breaking Restart].
This Skill would inflict damage based on the user’s magic power usage, blood consumption, and five-dimensional data over a period; should this Skill hit an enemy and the enemy survives, it can reset the enemy’s Energy Level to one hundred temporarily, turning all attributes to align with Hundred-level data.
When facing high-level enemies, even if this shot doesn’t kill them, it can weaken their strength briefly, making escape or attack much easier.
Such powerful skills also had their usage limitations, even if Lux acquired all of Demon King’s power, becoming the new Demon King, he couldn’t drastically reduce those limitations.
But compared to before, Lux could now add numerous special effects to this must-kill skill, transforming its effectiveness drastically.
Lux could even sense, as long as this skill hits, even if Yang Yu doesn’t die immediately from his attack, his attributes would be reduced to a seventy or eighty level status.
At that point, to kill Yang Yu, he only needed to infuse vast magic power into his body.
Yang Yu drew nearer, Lux commanded surrounding magic power, charging upwards towards Yang Yu.
Seeing the two getting closer, suddenly, the magic power supporting Lux gradually disappeared, and the spiraling storm abruptly ceased without any warning.
Lux’s face showed disbelief, his sight darting towards Bai Jin and their group not far away.
If asked who here possessed the ability to dispel magic power, undoubtedly it would be the magicians who accompanied Yang Yu.
"How is this possible?
I am the Demon King now. I am the Demon King now.
The King controlling all magic power, how did they, right under my nose, undo my magic?"
Lux stretched out his hand, attempting to command the surrounding magic power but could feel the magic power was swiftly leaving.
The thick magic power wasn’t disappearing into thin air, but was gathering towards Bai Jin in the sky, condensing at her side!
Bai Jin turned herself into a "magnet," with Tico and Li Yan’s assistance, absorbing all the magic power.
Of course, compared to the Demon King’s giant magnet, Bai Jin’s magnet was much smaller, her "magnetic force" far inferior to the Demon King.
If magic power were likened to iron shavings, without altering the magnetic forces’ premise, how could a smaller magnet attract more iron shavings?
The simplest and most effective method was to wrap the magnet with a thick layer of material, changing the magnetic field distribution.
A magnet covered by thick books wouldn’t attract many "iron shavings."
Bai Jin and their team used exactly this tactic.
