"Tch..."
Iz's eyes widened, an unusual sight.
Boom!
A soul blast!
It exploded in an instant!
The entire space trembled from the force!
Even Izpalut's magic was swept away and shattered by the aftershock of the soul blast!
The power of that strike—
Its destructive force was on an entirely different level from an ordinary second-tier spell.
Did it work?
Lu Cang didn't let his guard down. He immediately surrounded himself with barriers and a lava shield, while thick walls rose in every direction.
Boom!
But the very next second, the elements stirred again!
A wind spear instantly pierced through the thick walls and passed through three layers of barriers. It scattered before reaching the lava shield.
It hadn't worked!
Lu Cang looked toward the direction the wind spear had come from. Iz was across the training ground, positioned diagonally opposite him.
Iz was five hundred meters away.
A sphere of packed earth surrounded him, along with a burning sphere of lava, a wind shield wrapped in a hurricane, and flowing water that protected him like a barrier. Lu Cang could even see vines and roots coiled into a sphere inside it all.
A dizzying array of shields.
They seemed to be regenerating, and were already almost fully restored.
Iz, you really are a walking fortress.
"Not bad. Was that your idea, too?"
"But you didn't aim at the real target."
"If you can't tell the water-mist illusion from the real body, then no matter how powerful your attack is, it'll only hit empty air."
From within his shields, Iz raised a hand toward Lu Cang.
"Magic Blast (Second Tier)"
Magic surged and churned above Lu Cang's head!
Huh?
"Repelling Wind Blast"—create distance! Stack barriers and thick walls! Block the explosion before it could happen!
Boom!
A terrifying roar erupted
