Solam, feeling slighted, was furious. Those present were thus fortunate enough to witness a spellcasting display.
Using an Arcanist's distinctive casting methods, Solam unleashed Abi-Dalzim's Horrid Wilting, Prismatic Spray, and Chain Lightning in rapid succession within just a few seconds. The monsters the nameless priest had just gathered were engulfed by these large-scale destructive spells, and more than half of them were instantly blasted to pieces. Only monsters with tough hides and tenacious vitality, such as trolls and basilisks, barely survived.
But those who survived gained no advantage at all, because they had to face an even more terrifying monster.
Solam himself!
"Greater Elemental Avatar! The Prince Descends!!!"
BOOM!
Flames flickering with an enchanting orange-red glow erupted from Solam with a thunderous blast. A massive pillar of fire shot up from the ground, instantly dispelling the surrounding darkness, while the ground around it melted into liquid lava at once.
The pillar of fire soon began to contract, revealing a flaming giant nearly ten meters tall before everyone! This flaming giant was vastly different from the one Solam had transformed into before. Though it still had the same ugly skull-like face, its features were much clearer. White and orange-red flames wrapped around its body, forming an armor-like shell, while a crown made entirely of fire rested atop its head!
This was the advanced form of Solam's Elemental Avatar: Elemental Prince Avatar. In this form, the loss of reason caused by his Elemental Avatar was greatly reduced, and he could now cast spells. Though he still could not cast them instantly, it was enough. At the same time, the increase in his strength was extremely pronounced.
As the Fire Prince took shape, Solam drove a massive flaming fist into the giant basilisk. Basilisks liked to breed in dry tropical and volcanic regions.
