Mage Manual-Chapter 594 - 481: The Last Color of the Seven-colored Tail

Void Realm, Time Continent.

"Charge from the left flank, let me try again!"

"No use, we’ve lost our chance, the car’s going to explode!"

On the chaotic battlefield, a battered sports car hastily left the disorderly area smeared with purple, cyan, and green. The enormous Shadow Evil Dragon cast a glance at the fleeing "little bug" before shifting its gaze back to the two Commanders in the distance.

"Wanderer, Poison Widow." The Shadow Evil Dragon’s eyes flashed fiercely, "Leave now, and I will forgive your past transgressions. Otherwise, when Li Yuan rises over the Woodlands of Illusion, you all will shatter like dying suns, bleed like water, exhausted in an instant, and your True Names extinguished!"

"We’re here to force you to activate the Woodlands of Illusion." Denzel sneered arrogantly, "The Silent Spiral is already ignited, the Sky Garden has fallen, do you think Li Yuan can remain uninvolved? Come on, since Spider Tower initiated this seal war, we won’t allow it to end perfectly!"

"Oasis is an ally of Spider Tower," Wanderer stated calmly.

"Stubborn fool!"

Following a sorrowful roar from the Shadow Evil Dragon, a bizarrely quiet voice, soft as feathers brushing against the hearing organs of all sentient beings, whispered, "Travel through the woodland, mirror the Illusion."

Roar!

Countless sharp, piercing roars shook the entire Time Continent. Even Ash and his companions, who had already escaped the battlefield, were affected. Their eardrums were instantly ruptured, and the intense booming left them temporarily dazed until their soul energy automatically healed their bodies.

Ash gasped for breath, "Good thing we ran in time."

Sonia glanced back and saw that the monster silhouettes on the battlefield had become so dense that the golden Rain Curtain could not fully conceal them, causing her heart to feel a chill of fear.

Beside her, Diya was so terrified that even her hair seemed to lose some of its color; she clung to Sonia for support.

To advance to Holy Domain and seek the Seven-colored Tail, they naturally had to actively find other powers’ main cities, luring Spider Tower and Oasis to invade, to hunt Commanders amidst the chaos of battle.

So far, they had encountered five Void Realm forces: Star Hall, Blood Tomb, Spider Tower, Oasis, and Garden, and today they were exactly in the last Void Realm power’s exclusive round.

Different from the Garden, this power’s main city wasn’t hard to locate; it only took them an hour to find it.

Spider Tower and Oasis arrived punctually, swiftly transforming the previously tranquil main city into a decaying battlefield. However, when Ash and his companions tried to kill Commanders for an easy victory, they found it rather problematic.

Unlike other main cities, Li Yuan’s main city didn’t have an actual ’city’; from the outside, it looked like a bottomless pit had appeared on the ground, akin to the Abyss. Outside this large pit, the main city area was filled with many smaller pits, from which the Heroic Soul Army could emerge at any moment, making it much like tunnel warfare. It was hardly a favorable combat environment for a sports car.

More importantly, Li Yuan’s soldiers were not humanoid.

The troops of the other five forces, though different, were mostly humanoid, with Void Realm creatures adapted to humanoid forms. This wasn’t because humanoid had many advantages but likely just because the Divine Lord who created the troops was humanoid, hence favoring that form.

But Li Yuan’s troops were different: when armed, the Void Realm creatures would be enhanced into larger, more brutal, and violent beings. Although they seemed to lose their armor and unique abilities, their individual combat power far surpassed that of the humanoid troops, and they resisted the assault of two powers with a single city’s force.

Li Yuan’s strength brought trouble for Spider Tower and Oasis, but that trouble didn’t concern Ash. The problem was that Li Yuan’s Commanders also transformed themselves into large creatures!

The Shadow Evil Dragon that had just oppressed the battlefield was Li Yuan’s chief Commander!

As for the other Commanders, they were just as formidable, either becoming rampaging dragons or high-hovering storm dragons!

Even with the protection of ’Secret Keeping Authority,’ allowing them to stealthily approach Commanders for a surprise attack, killing a humanoid Commander and instantly slaying a large creature were entirely different concepts!

Moreover, this battlefield was filled with area-wide attacks, far more chaotic than the previous ones. If Ash hadn’t spent all his recent resources on improving ’Refraction Curtain’, they would have likely been demolished by some unknown area attack while crossing the battlefield.

After several perilous and futile returns, it was eventually the Sword Maiden triggered her Innate Talent "Phantom of the Resentful Dragon" during a sneak attack. A dragon-like figure, burning with vengeful hellfire like a tiger, appeared behind her, enhancing her sword technique with the power of the Miracle by nearly tenfold, and also inflicting effects like burning and piercing—that’s how she slew the Li Yuan Commander with one stroke, seizing the Commander’s handbook, Soul Summoning Technique Spirit, and map.

They initially needed to kill an Oasis Commander and grab a copy of the Oasis map to complete the full map. However, both Spider Tower and Oasis knew they were hunting Commanders, and each Commander was surrounded by dozens of Soldiers, leaving no opening for the Sword Maiden and Witch. Even a forced surprise attack was quickly repelled.

Return to the battlefield was not an option. Since Li Yuan had employed a Wonder, Spider Tower and Oasis would naturally match it, turning the place into a Life Forbidden Zone of Wonders clashing.

Let alone that the ’Refraction Curtain’s’ durability was exhausted; even a full-status sports car would probably be destroyed within a minute if it ventured in.
