Momentum of Heaven and Earth

Sure enough, after listening carefully, he quickly pinpointed Locke's true location through the sounds and breathing, then immediately launched an attack at that spot.

Sure enough, after he attacked, the mage before him shattered like a phantom.

Ahead of where he had swung his sword, a figure in a blue mage's robe appeared like a mirage.

Boom!

The Light Knight's Battle Qi Slash cleaved everything before him apart.

Even Locke was no exception.

Yet what shocked the knight was that the mage he had cut in two also dispersed like the phantom from before.

No, I've been tricked!

The moment this thought arose in the knight's mind, three phrases sounded beside his ears. Then his vision went black, and his hearing vanished as well.

"Heavenly Dance Treasure Wheel!"

"Vision Deprivation!"

"Hearing Deprivation!"

Boom!

At this moment, the knight finally understood how the mage before him had slaughtered seventeen teams.

With magic capable of depriving enemies of sight and hearing, he was practically invincible on the battlefield!

Unless this magic could be dispelled, all soldiers could only become lambs awaiting slaughter.

The instant he lost his vision and hearing, the knight erupted with Battle Qi, enveloping his entire body in its defensive protection.

A trace of relief rose in the knight's heart.

Fortunately, there was no warrior of the same level beside this mage.

Otherwise, he would likely have been killed in an instant.

Likewise, he was not fighting alone.

As long as he could hold on for a while, the two Priests behind him would arrive and use light magic to dispel his current abnormal condition.

Within the fog, Locke looked at the knight standing in a bow stance, his Battle Qi forming a tangible suit of armor around his body, and frowned.

Sure enough, Rank 7 powerhouses were no simple opponents.

Although he had taken advantage of the moment the knight was distracted to blind his vision and hearing, the knight had immediately assumed a defensive stance and erupted with Battle Qi to strengthen his defenses.

However, this was Locke's home ground!

At once, Locke's Mental Strength fused with the Profound Mystery of Illusionary Fog between heaven and earth, entering a state of Unity of Heaven and Man.

Then, Locke drew upon the power of the laws he had comprehended and began chanting a spell, adding the Momentum of Heaven and Earth to the magic he was about to cast.

The Momentum of Heaven and Earth was something a Ninth-level Warrior had to comprehend in order to advance into the Saint Domain.

If one could not comprehend the Momentum of Heaven and Earth, one would remain a Ninth-level Warrior for life.

Only after comprehending the Momentum of Heaven and Earth could a warrior at the peak of level nine break through into the Saint Domain.

The so-called Momentum of Heaven and Earth was the various Profound Mysteries of the laws between heaven and earth.

Locke had comprehended the Profound Mystery of Illusionary Fog. Though it was only a trace, having a Profound Mystery and not having one were entirely different matters.

Even the power of a mere trace of a Profound Mystery could greatly amplify an attack.

Of course, the better the compatibility between the move he used and the Profound Mystery, the greater the amplification he would receive.

At this moment, the spell Locke was chanting was the level-six magic, Water Dragon Chant.

It could be considered the strongest single-target attack among the spells Locke currently possessed.

As Locke chanted, vast quantities of water elements gathered before his magic staff.

Three seconds later, Locke completed the chant. A water dragon as thick as a barrel and over ten meters long fully condensed, circling around him.

Because Locke had enhanced it with the Profound Mystery of Illusionary Fog, several wisps of mist appeared around the water dragon formed from water elements, adding even more imposing might to it.

"Water Dragon Chant!"

"Roar!"

With Locke's shout, the water dragon let out a dragon's roar and rushed swiftly toward the Rank 7 Knight.

If this Temple of Light knight had been fully alert when facing Locke's Water Dragon Chant, he could have first released a Battle Qi Slash to weaken its power, then used a combat skill to destroy the water dragon.

But now, having lost both vision and hearing, the knight could only defend passively.

Moreover, he could neither see nor hear the direction from which the attack was coming.

This meant that under Locke's attack, the knight was nothing more than a target waiting to be struck.

The water dragon circled around the knight once before crashing down violently from above his head!

Boom!

Although the knight had released Battle Qi around his entire body for defense, the direct blow from the water dragon to his head still left him dazed.

With no time to defend himself using his weapon, the knight could only erupt with all his Battle Qi in an attempt to block the attack.

Boom!

Yet as the water dragon continued pressing downward, the knight was forced to his knees by the immense force, cracking the ground beneath him.

While the knight was being attacked by the water dragon, Locke did not stop moving.

Water Dragon Chant was only level-six magic after all. Even with the enhancement of the Illusionary Fog law, its power was at most comparable to level-seven magic.

If the knight had not used Battle Qi for defense, Locke's move might have severely injured or even killed him.

But after losing his vision and hearing, this cautious knight had immediately erupted with Battle Qi to defend himself.

As a result, Locke's attack could injure the knight, but the injury was not enough to leave him unable to resist.

However, that was enough for Locke.

With a wave of Locke's magic staff, dozens of arm-thick ice spikes appeared around him.

Level-five ice magic, Hail of Frost Arrows!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

Under Locke's control, the dozens of ice spikes shot toward the Temple of Light knight like cannonballs.

Bang!

Bang, bang, bang, bang...

Before the knight, who had just taken a Water Dragon Chant head-on, could react, dozens of ice spikes slammed into his body and blasted him flying.

Pfft...

Although the dozens of ice spikes still failed to break through the knight's Battle Qi defenses, the force they carried made the knight, who had just endured the Water Dragon Chant, spit out a mouthful of blood.

Not only that, after striking the knight, the ice spikes transformed into solid ice and began freezing him.

To shatter the solid ice on his body, the knight had no choice but to erupt with Battle Qi again, breaking the ice apart.

But Locke's next spell was already on its way.

Level-six Water Element Magic, Water Dragon Chant!

"Roar!"

Boom!

Pfft—

The water dragon, over ten meters long and carrying immense might, launched another attack against the knight.
