The countdown ended. Dozens of translucent trails lingered in the void as Blazing Swords arrived before Zuoqiu Jingzhen.
Unlike before, illusory flames burned upon every Blazing Sword.
Zuoqiu Jingzhen had heard of Chen Yi, someone said to be carving out a new path for fire magic.
Those low-level people had praised him to the heavens, but in the end, it was still just high temperatures and explosions.
Zuoqiu Jingzhen raised her staff. "Water Curtain of Splendor."
Four pale blue curtains of water protected Zuoqiu Jingzhen.
The water curtains were exceedingly thin, as though they would burst with a single poke.
