Breaking the Array (Thanks to Bu Xiang Kai Che Zhi Xiang Bai Lan for the 5,000 Qidian Coin Tip)

Boom!

The second blue fireball shattered against the Greater Elemental Shield.

The man in black sighed in relief. It looked like there would be no problem blocking the third blue fireball. In just a few more breaths, the Teleportation Array would activate normally. Then he would finally have the time to properly teach this arrogant Li Si a lesson.

Just as the man in black was imagining how he would deal with Viscount Kane at the secret location he had prepared, a sudden change occurred!

The third blue fireball appeared no different from the first two, but the instant it struck the Greater Elemental Shield, it suddenly exploded violently.

Sizzle—boom!

The violent explosion erupted in front of the man in black, and the Greater Elemental Shield collapsed beneath the terrifying impact.

Fortunately, the Greater Protective Field, which had seemed useless, blocked most of the tremendous shockwave. Otherwise, with the man in black's frail body, he would likely have died on the spot.

Even so, the man's clothes were shredded by the remaining impact. The blue flames that landed on him clung to him like maggots on a corpse, burning his flesh all over his body.

"Ugh... guh..."

An agonized groan escaped the man in black's throat, while the muscles in his face twitched violently.

The reason the third Blue Ball Spell had produced an abnormal explosion was that Li Si had attached a third-circle Arcane Rupture Burst to it.

This was one of the Arcane spells Li Si had recently developed. It could attach explosive energy to other Evocation spells and activate when that spell approached an enemy, rupturing the attached spell and transforming all its energy into a special shockwave that specifically targeted the enemy's protective spells.

For its first use in actual combat, the results seemed remarkably effective.
