Dan Heng gazed ahead and slowly closed his eyes. The power unique to the High Elder of the Vidyadhara gathered around him. The seawater surrounding Scalegorge Waterscape rose into the air in defiance of gravity, swirling around him.
Suddenly, the ground shook violently, and everyone nearly lost their footing.
"Whoa, that's quite a rumble!"
"Everyone, steady yourselves and watch your step. Don't fall!"
"Humm." A brilliant light gathered, and the trembling ground slowly settled. At last, the gates of Scalegorge Waterscape opened.
"Once you're inside, please be careful. To reach the place where the Ambrosial Arbor grows, you'll need to activate some mechanisms. Scalegorge Waterscape isn't exactly short on dangers, so be careful not to get hurt."
"When you're ready, we can set out."
With Dan Heng's remaining memories and everyone working together, the group successfully made it through the complex mechanisms and opened the gate to the final stage.
"Hehe, so you've finally arrived. What do you think of this new body of mine, born of both Abundance and Destruction?" A massive figure emerged from the ground. Lord Ravager Phantylia held a fan in her hand and sneered at them.
Of course, no one bothered to respond.
"I'll focus on controlling her, and I can also heal and buff everyone. General Jing Yuan, the path of the Hunt is known for its offensive power. Can you take the lead in attacking?" Xiao Xi asked, her expression grave.
"No problem. Please be careful during this battle. Whatever happens, I'll hold the front line."
"Got it." As Xiao Xi replied, brilliant flames burst into life, and she immediately boosted everyone with all sorts of buffs.
"Whoa, this feels amazing! I'm insanely strong now!" March 7th cried excitedly.
"As expected of an Emanator of the Aeon of Wishes."
"Hmph, parlor tricks." Phantylia looked down at them and snorted. "Let me show you the blessings of Destruction."
"Blessings, my foot!"
"With two Emanators gathered here, you really think you can win? There's no need to play fair with someone like her. Let's all attack!"
While Phantylia was restrained by Xiao Xi's path power and unable to move, everyone unleashed their strength at once.
"Let me show you what I can do!" March 7th drew her bow, firing countless arrow-feathers imbued with the power of Six-Phased Ice.
"And me! Flame Spear, charge!" Look, it was their Stelle, charging forward with the power of the path of Preservation she had newly gained in Belobog.
"You have no idea how heavy this power is. Have you ever seen a star reduced to dust?" Welt raised his cane, altering gravity as a deep black hole appeared.
"Cavern Mirage, Azure Dragon Cleanses the World." A colossal water dragon descended from the sky. Dan Heng had made his move, charging in with his newly awakened power.
"By the majesty of the Lightning Lord, I hereby command: strike without mercy!" The golden Divine Foresight appeared behind Jing Yuan. The massive golden figure gripped a long blade and swung it at Phantylia with tremendous force.
"Boom!" Their combined attacks immediately emptied Phantylia's first-phase health bar.
"Y-you wretches! Hmph, my body is made from the power of Abundance and the Ambrosial Arbor. I won't be defeated so easily!" Phantylia roared furiously, trying to activate the blessings of Abundance and load her second phase.
