Red Thorn spewed a huge amount of spores out of its spore cavity and formed a large sea of flowers thanks to its energy transmission.
It was not stingy with its energy for this duel. Under Lin Yuan’s command, it had spread the sea of flowers as much as possible to cover the dueling ground.
The Huge-Tailed Swamp Lizard was not idle either. It had used its ability, Stinky Swamp, to create a swamp nearly ten square meters. Since it was a spell-type unit, this ability allowed it to hide and avoid damage. That way, it could constantly use Stinky Mud or Corrosive Mud Downpour to attack from the back.
It lifted the mud toward Red Thorn’s child ramets, but what happened next secretly surprised Chen Hongfeng.
Its highly corrosive mud caused little damage to the sea of flowers. Lin Yuan did not find this surprising, as everything was within his expectations.
Red Thorn had to devour a large amount of dimensional lifeforms’ flesh daily. So far, it had devoured much flesh from Class 3 dimensional lifeforms, which were equivalent to Gold feys. This included the highly corrosive Class 3 alien insect, Acid Tapeworm. It had eaten the Acid Tapeworm with relish, without being affected at all. Therefore, its child ramets and ramets had high immunity against corrosion.
At that moment, the Huge-Tailed Swamp Lizard wanted to expand the swamp into the sea of flowers. It jumped to the edge of the sea of flowers and was prepared to use its Gold ability, Corrosive Mud Downpour.
Just then, Lin Yuan immediately summoned a fey that he had never summoned in the duel, the Blue Flash Purple Butterfly. He had released its skill, Silence Scale Powder, through Morbius on his wrist in the past.
Unfortunately, Morbius’ Silence Scale Powder was not as powerful as the one the Blue Flash Purple Butterfly released.
Once the Blue Flash Purple Butterfly appeared, a blue-purple glow flashed. As it flashed a few times, it disappeared into the sea of flowers. The scattered scale powder appeared as though it had created a light-purple mist. However, this magnificent mist was a complete disaster for the spiritually mutated Huge-Tailed Swamp Lizard.
The adhesive Silence Scale Powder landed on its body. As a result, the Huge-Tailed Swamp Lizard tried to form the Corrosive Mud Downpour but failed.
As soon as the Silence Scale Powder came in contact with it, it caused it to lose its sensing ability of the water and earth elements.
The Blue Flash Purple Butterfly, a legendary lifeform that had only existed in ancient texts, appeared for the first time in this duel before everyone’s eyes. It set off a storm no less than when Black had appeared.
After the Spirit Qi Awakening, the top ten most beautiful feys would be evaluated every year. The Blue Flash Butterfly could have been in the top five based on its beauty, but due to its weak ability at high grades, it had been ranked ninth.
Now that Lin Yuan had summoned the Blue Flash Purple Butterfly, it proved that the Blue Flash Purple Butterfly did exist among the Blue Flash Butterflies. At the same time, it also confirmed the authenticity of the ancient texts.
This year, the Blue Flash Butterfly might even have the qualification to reach the top three among the ten most beautiful feys.
When Chen Hongfeng saw the Blue Flash Purple Butterfly, he fell in a daze.
At that moment, Lin Yuan controlled Red Thorn to transmit most of its energy near the Huge-Tailed Swamp Lizard that the Blue Flash Purple Butterfly’s Silence Scale Powder had controlled.
Soon, Red Thorn’s most powerful ramets quickly spawned. The ramets’ vines grabbed the Huge-Tailed Swamp Lizard, which had been controlled by the Silence Scale Powder and could not sense the water and earth elements.
Chen Hongfeng had come back to his senses from his trance. Upon seeing that the vines had thorns, he felt things were bad.
The Huge-Tailed Swamp Lizard was a helpless target. If it was dragged into the large sea of flowers, how could it still make it out alive?
Thus, he shouted and ordered the Huge-Tailed Swamp Lizard to use its exclusive skill, Broken Tail Regrowth. After breaking its tail, it immediately became the size of a watermelon, and its tiny body scurried back into the swamp it had spawned. The swamp was slowly dispersing the Silence Scale Powder on its body.
At that moment, Lin Yuan supplied his spiritual power to the Blue Flash Purple Butterfly, which immediately released a large amount of Silence Scale Powder. This light-purple mist was like cherry blossom snow in the midsummer.
The scale powder fell with a unique halo, reflecting the swamp like a fairyland.
Lin Yuan used the Blue Flash Purple Butterfly to seal the Huge-Tailed Swamp Lizard’s movements.
The swamp that the Huge-Tailed Swamp Lizard had created was too small, and its body had been covered with the Silence Scale Powder, so it could not create the swamp again.
Therefore, the entire stinky swamp, which was less than ten square meters, was heavily mixed with the Blue Flash Purple Butterfly’s Silence Scale Powder, causing it to become a forbidden ground that isolated any elements. This forbidden ground had restricted its movements.
Red Thorn’s sea of flowers had surrounded this swamp, and a large number of Elite ramets encircled it.
Although the Huge-Tailed Swamp Lizard was a Gold VIII/Flawless fey, it did not have a powerful defense. If it scurried out, it would not have so many tails to break in the sea of flowers. Thus, it would be torn apart by the large sea of flowers into pieces.
Chen Hongfeng had a hideous expression at present, as he had not expected that Black would cripple his fey. It made him feel very passive. Likewise, Lin Yuan did not have it easy either.
Since Lin Yuan did not use the Spirit Qi Imprint, he had almost used up his body’s spiritual power. He had supplied a large amount of spirit qi to the Blue Flash Purple Butterfly and Red Thorn’s ortet, which allowed the Huge-Tailed Swamp Lizard to be sealed.
Although he could solve this problem with the Spirit-Gather Goldfish’s Spirit Qi Imprint, he did not plan to use it in any of the tower-climbing duels. Once he used the Spirit Qi Imprint and the spiritual power inside was released, it could only be stopped after exhausting all the spiritual power.
The Spirit Qi Imprint was one of Lin Yuan’s trump cards to survive in the real world. If he had not unsealed the Spirit Qi Imprint, he would not have been able to create a sea of flowers at Millstone Town that was enough to fight against the pinnacle Class 1 insect tide.
Thus, up to now, this duel was his real tough battle.
Chen Hongfeng’s remaining Gold VI/Flawless Huge-Tailed Swamp Lizard was a fey that relied on brute force. Although it would enter a near-death state after using one of its exclusive skills, Blood Burning Strike, its burst of power would likely finish off Lin Yuan.
Chen Hongfeng had commanded the Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard to charge toward Lin Yuan and Red Thorn’s ortet.
Even though the small sea of flowers that Red Thorn had spawned could cause damage to the Huge-Tailed Swamp Lizard, it could do nothing about the Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard, which had returned to its ancestry line.
Lin Yuan could even vaguely sense a trace of a dragon-species fey from the Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard’s body. It seemed that this Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard’s body vaguely had the possibility of returning to its ancestral line of a Liopleurodon.
The Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard used its Gold ability, Wave Stepping Strike, and dashed. Just as it was running, it suddenly experienced intense pain and roared in pain.
Lin Yuan’s Gold I/Legend Acid Corrosion Queen Bee had been hidden in an inconspicuous child ramet. When the Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard was close, the Acid Corrosion Queen Bee used Wing Stealth, allowing it to cover her tracks silently and use Two-Strike Kill on the Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard’s abdomen. Two long, slender abdominal stingers stung into the abdomen and injected venom into the body.
The Acid Corrosion Queen Bee’s two abdominal stingers contained two kinds of acid-corrosion venom that instantly disintegrated the Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard’s abdomen into a bucket-sized hole. As soon as this hole appeared, many of its internal organs were affected by gravity and congested in this hole.
The Acid Corrosion Queen Bee’s sudden attack had completely caught the Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard off guard.
Even though the Acid Corrosion Queen Bee had gotten an advantage, it did not retreat right away. Instead, it stung the Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard’s weakest organs congested in the hole.
It was still not over yet, even when it had shattered the organs. It even cruelly gave birth to a Parasitic Pupa.
When the Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard roared in pain and swept over with its tail, the Acid Corrosion Queen Bee used Wing Stealth to dodge into the flowers.
This large sea of flowers was the best battlefield and most helpful protection for the Acid Corrosion Queen Bee.
Because of the Acid Corrosion Queen Bee’s set of abilities, the spirit qi in Lin Yuan’s body had almost reached rock bottom. If it wasn’t for Red Thorn’s thornless vine supporting Lin Yuan, he would have instantly collapsed to the ground due to the spirit qi’s exhaustion that caused him to be weak.
As Lin Yuan used the last bit of spiritual power in his body to use the Spirit-Gather Goldfish’s Spirit Injection, he commanded Red Thorn to use its vines to block the action of him doing so.
At that moment, Chen Hongfeng did not worry about the Smooth-Tooth Elephant Lizard’s injuries. Instead, he suddenly wore a smile on his face, showing that he was determined to win, and said, “It’s close enough. Black, you’ve been fooled!”
