The Unicorn Who Couldn't Clear Her Name
Su Ming's group also witnessed the changes on Leoni's side throughout the entire process.
Headphones enable communication and intelligence sharing between the two sides on the battlefield.
Su Ming looked at the center of the Mirror Domain, where the Prism Shadow, surrounded by four shadows, lay motionless on the mirror surface.
His eyes sharpened.
"Although we don't know what happened, let's take care of this guy quickly, lest things get complicated!"
Zijin completely agreed.
"Clear out the shadows first, eliminate them one by one!"
"Let's start with the simplest one, the Moon Prayer Master," Su Ming said.
The Zijin Divine Favor Scepter flashed with light, and a magic orb flew far away, striking the Shadow Unicorn at its maximum range.
As expected, the shadow unicorn, having been attacked, broke free of its original position and flew towards this direction alone.
Qiluo was quite dissatisfied.
"Waaah, I want to see myself looking so dashing a little longer!" "I'll have the Electricity-Swallowing Beast Photoshop you later, as many times as you want!" Su Ming said irritably.
The azure light on the shadow unicorn suddenly intensified, its long horn on its forehead shone brightly, and swirling wind patterns appeared beneath its four hooves.
Su Ming and Zijin both sensed something was wrong.
"Hide!"
The two immediately moved aside.
The next instant, the shadow unicorn transformed into a streak of blue light.
It was lifted by the wind, drawing a straight line in the mirrored world, before the ripples could even spread.
Brush!
The shadow unicorn passed between Su Ming and Zijin.
The azure wind trailing behind it dispersed, transforming into numerous tiny wind blades that sliced in all directions.
Su Ming and Zijin simultaneously deployed their shields, and the wind blades struck the shields, producing a series of impact sounds.
Qiluo was swept away by the wind and spun around several times, her hooves stumbling and stomping on the mirror surface, almost falling on her backside. However, the wind Magic Power within her surged automatically, dissipating most of the wind blades for her.
In the end, Qiluo still looked confused and bewildered.
"Hey!" Su Ming angrily.
He pointed to the shadow unicorn that was turning around on the other side. The creature unfurled phantom wings made of wind power, completing an extremely nimble turn.
"Your shadow has already revealed your true strength, stop pretending!"
"What did I pretend to be?" Qiluo asked, looking completely bewildered.
The shadow unicorn's movements were so fluid as to be almost elegant, as if it were dancing with the wind.
Su Ming couldn't help but complain:
"Exceptional wind-elemental talent; truly a case of like begets like."
Qiluo raised her head, her face filled with a clear blankness.
"It's true that I inherited my parents' wind-elemental talent."
"But... I haven't studied it!" Su Ming paused for a moment.
Instead, it was Zijin who spoke up:
"She might actually be innocent."
"A unicorn can hide things, but deceiving with lies comes at a huge price."
****
The shadow unicorn returned and approached.
This time, the azure storm surrounding it was even stronger than before. The wind pressure spread, and the shards of light on the mirror surface were blown away layer by layer.
Zijin went to greet her.
Su Ming drew his Thorn Long Whip and followed.
"Just kill them outright!"
Qiluo quickly climbed up from the mirror, and a halo of light blue and silver appeared.
"Whoosh! Although I don't know why I'm so powerful, the Moon Prayer Master is now seriously providing support!" A large number of amplification spells fell on Zijin and Su Ming: Lightness, Swiftness, Wind Resistance, and Increased Magic Power Flow.
The two of them felt lighter.
The Zijin Divine Favor Scepter moved forward slightly.
"Hexagon - Meteor Storm!"
Hundreds of magical orbs unleashed from her side, the dense barrage of light projectiles trailing long tails as they slammed into the shadow unicorn, twenty percent more in number than usual.
The Shadow Unicorn flapped its Wind-Colored Illusion Wings and swiftly shifted sideways, avoiding the first wave of attacks.
With a flick of her scepter, Zijin forcibly drew in the surrounding wind elements.
"Wind Wings·Furious Dance!"
A dozen or so twisting wind wings formed around the shadow unicorn, like reverse-current cyclones, disrupting its flight path.
The shadow unicorn's movements slowed by a moment.
Su Ming seized the opportunity and lashed out with his Thorn Long Whip.
The long whip traced an arc, wrapping around the shadow unicorn's forelimbs and neck.
The shadow unicorn tried to flap its wings and break free, but was held back by the turbulent currents of Zijin.
The Thorn Long Whip tightened its grip.
Click click click!
The thorns coiled around it, their sharp spikes piercing the wind-elemental protective layer surrounding the shadow unicorn.
With Su Ming's magical penetrating power, ordinary levels of protection simply cannot stop him.
Moreover, there's Qiluo's assistance.
"Gotcha!"
Su Ming's hand suddenly felt heavy, and a dim magical light spread from his palm to the Thorn Long Whip.
"Elemental Fade Deathly Word Elements!"
The runes traveled along the whip, like tiny venomous snakes, burrowing into the wind Magic Power surrounding the shadow unicorn.
The cyan Magic Power began to turn gray, its edges became murky, and its flow became briefly disordered. The Shadow Unicorn's wind wings immediately began to tremble, and even the wind patterns beneath its four hooves began to disintegrate.
"It's ready!" Qiluo exclaimed excitedly.
But she was clearly too optimistic.
The next moment, the shadow unicorn's horn lit up, and a clear, almost transparent, cyan glow spread out.
"Wind Sequence!"
A cyan domain suddenly unfolded.
All the chaotic wind elements around seemed to have received a command at this moment.
The Magicules around the Shadow Unicorn, disrupted by "Elemental Fade," rearranged into a fluid form.
The elements that had been taken from control by Zijin's "Wind Wings: Chaos Dance" seemed to have returned to their ranks like stray soldiers.
The Thorn Long Whip wrapped around the shadow unicorn was also forced away by layers of wind power.
Su Ming immediately increased his Magic Power, wanting to continue suppressing it, while Zijin also gathered her magic again.
The shadow unicorn flicked its horn, and its azure domain expanded rapidly outwards. Boom!
Su Ming and Zijin were both thrown back.
