Reversal of the Situation
Fengyun was no longer willing to waste words with them. He had been forced to use his Light Shadow Blade. If he didn't fight desperately to defeat his opponents, he would be in real danger!
Touching the cold blade of the Light Shadow Blade, Fengyun felt a sense of security with the blade in his hand.
Although his Light Attribute attacks are not much stronger than his current Dark Element attacks, which are unpredictable and ever-changing, it could even be said that they are inferior.
But this is the method he has used to cultivate himself from childhood to the present!
With the Light Shadow Blade, Light Shadow Slash, Illusionary Slash, Sun Slash, and the fierce and domineering Great Brightness Slash were continuously unleashed from his blade, and Marco and the others' situation instantly took a sharp turn for the worse.
This doesn't mean that Fengyun's Light Attribute methods are stronger; even his currently unrestrained Great Brightness Slash is not as strong as his dark methods.
The reason for this is that his Light Attribute techniques are easier to use and more tactically sound. Although Marco and the others are all Light Attribute cultivators and have high resistance to Light Attribute techniques, they are still suffering greatly from Fengyun's various unique Battle Qi Slash attacks.
For a time, Marco and the others didn't even dare to launch an attack, and could only defend passively, letting Marina use instant magic to attack and interfere, preventing Fengyun from breaking through the Angel Battle Array.
After Fengyun, who had directly reversed the situation, relaxed, his attacks became increasingly effective.
A barrage of Battle Qi Slash hurtled towards Marco and Marina. Some of these Battle Qi Slash were real, some were fake, some were bright, and some were dark. Occasionally, there would be unpredictable bursts of blinding light from the Sun Slash.
Although most of them were just for show, created by using Light Shadow Slash to conserve battle energy—the kind that could be punctured with a single stab— Marco and Marina dared not relax their defenses in the slightest. Their battle energy shields and magic shields had remained unbroken since they appeared.
Because these seemingly ordinary and hidden Battle Qi Slash could easily kill Level 8 experts in Fengyun's hands, and also put considerable pressure on the two Level Nine Experts!
Marco and Marina, who initially underestimated it, were tricked several times. Fortunately, they were both Level Nine Expert, and also fortunately, the Light Shadow Blade had not yet been upgraded by Fengyun by integrating it into the spike of the Spine Armored Dragon, making it unsuitable for attacking with Dark Battle Qi.
Otherwise, Marco, who is relatively weaker, might have already been killed!
After all, besides the unpredictable and elusive slashes, these Battle Qi Slash also included the Sun Slash. The blindingly bright light that erupted from time to time greatly affected their offensive and defensive rhythm, even though they were all powerful Light Attribute cultivators.
Fengyun, who had regained the upper hand, smiled slightly. Although Marina would occasionally use instant-cast magic to interfere with him, as long as he was willing enough, breaking through the Angel Battle Array would not be a problem.
If Marco and Marina dare to interfere, he will make sure Marco know the consequences of his dark attack, amplified by the laws of nature, hitting them in the face.
But he wasn't in a hurry to break through; instead, he continued to unleash beams of Light Shadow Slash towards Marco and Marina.
For some reason, after fully exposing his weapon, the Light Shadow Blade, and his Light Attribute battle aura, Fengyun felt a strange sense of relief.
Although using Light Battle Qi spirit is not as powerful as his current Dark Battle Qi attacks, it merely enriches his tactical options, making Marco and Marina wary of his sudden ruthlessness and use of dark methods to deliver a fatal blow.
But having revealed his Light Attribute techniques, he inexplicably felt a strange sense of comfort when wielding his sword. His understanding of the Law of Light, which had previously brought him to the brink of mastery due to the Aurora Crystal, was also stirring within him.
For a moment, he felt a strange sense of clarity watching Marina cast various Light Attribute spells, Marco Light Attribute offensive and defensive Combat Skill, and observe the operation of the Angel Battle Array.
"I have a bright pearl, which has long been locked away by dust."
"Today, the dust has settled and the light shines forth, illuminating countless mountains and rivers!"
Previously, when he tried to comprehend the Law of Light, he always felt that he was just a little short of the entry level and it was difficult to break through.
When he tried to comprehend the Law of Light within the Aurora Crystal, although he seemed to be a little closer to mastering the Law of Light, he still couldn't break through and felt that he didn't understand it thoroughly enough.
Although he felt that he could slowly grind it down and eventually break through this barrier with the passage of time, he never expected that his undercover identity would be exposed. When he used the Light Shadow Slash that he had practiced since childhood to fight, he actually felt a sense of clarity, naturalness, and comfort from the bottom of his heart.
Under normal circumstances, this feeling would probably be fleeting, merely a reflection of emotions suppressed for ten years.
But Fengyun, who had already grasped the basics of the Dark Element Law, seized the opportunity to understand that sliver of enlightenment.
He had a strange feeling that as long as he followed this feeling and kept striking with his sword, he could carve out his path to the Law of Light and break through the last barrier that separated him from the Law of Light.
As he swung his sword, Fengyun muttered to himself, "I used to jokingly wonder if I really had to expose my undercover identity to truly grasp the Law of Light, but now it seems that's true!"
"That's really true!!!"
Watching Fengyun burst into inexplicable laughter and shout "It really is!", and seeing the ever-increasing number of Light Shadow Slash that were almost converging into a "River of Light," Marco wondered, "Has this guy gone mad?"
"Even if those fake slashes among his Battle Qi Slash are just imitations containing a trace of battle qi and have no offensive power at all, there's no need to use so many as harassment attacks!"
"Was that a waste of fighting spirit?!"
Marina scoffed, "Why bother with all that? The more battle energy he expends, the better. After all, unlike us, he doesn't have Angel Battle Array that can draw on the surrounding energy of heaven and earth for replenishment."
"If his battle energy runs out, that would be a great thing!"
As Marina said, the more battle energy Fengyun expends, the more advantageous it is for them. Especially now that they are being completely suppressed, Fengyun losing his fighting power due to excessive battle energy consumption is their only chance of victory.
But as time passed, and as the "River of Light" formed by the Battle Qi Slash grew larger and larger, even gradually filling the entire space of the Angel Battle Array, Marco's unease grew stronger and stronger.
A powerful, blazing white crescent slash flew from his greatsword toward Fengyun, and at the same time he shouted, "Marco, take the initiative!"
The crescent-shaped slash didn't even reach Fengyun before it was completely obliterated by the Battle Qi Slash within Fengyun's "River of Light".
Fengyun paid no attention to the attacks from Marco and the others who were building the Angel Battle Array. He didn't even intend to take advantage of the weakening of the battle array's energy during Marco and the others' attacks to launch a surprise attack.
After dodging the attacks from Marco and the others, Fengyun looked them over and laughed, "As far as I know, the strongest attack of the Angel Battle Array is to directly overwhelm people with its momentum, using the energy of the formation to forcefully attack by narrowing the area."
