Faced with the deadly wind-and-water onslaught howling down from the sky, Su Ye advanced instead of retreating.
His spine drew taut like a fully drawn bow, and his spear swept upward, unleashing a brilliant streak of spear light that slashed against the heavens.
Extreme Thunder Skybreak!
Boom!
Blinding lightning collided with the icy claws of wind and water in midair.
Violent shock waves swept outward, instantly shattering the enormous floating rock beneath his feet, a hundred zhang across, and dragging its fragments into the storm.
Su Ye swayed slightly, then used the force in midair to fly backward more than ten zhang, landing firmly on another floating rock.
The Winnowing Basket Water Leopard let out a muffled grunt in midair as well. Lightning tore several charred streaks across its rippling water shield, and it tumbled through the storm to disperse the force.
"Quite the beast. Your speed and penetrating power really are far stronger than the others."
Su Ye's eyes flickered. Since entering the trial, this was the first boss that had taken his Extreme Thunder Skybreak head-on without suffering much damage.
"But that's all you've got."
Su Ye stepped forward, silently imbuing his spear blade with his Final Resolution talent.
Roar!
Sensing danger, the Winnowing Basket Water Leopard blazed with deep blue light.
Under its control, the turquoise tornado columns filling the sky converged toward the center, forming an enormous wind-and-water killing formation that sealed Su Ye within it.
At the same time, the Winnowing Basket Water Leopard split into nine doubles, indistinguishable from its real body. Riding waves of heavy water, they lunged at him from nine blind spots at once.
Silence!
Hum!
An invisible force swept outward in every direction.
The furiously spinning wind-and-water killing formation abruptly stalled, its energy pathways falling into disarray for an instant.
