Chapter 310 Peeling Sheep Honorable
Tentacles extending from the water carried an obvious anger, striking down upon the Pale Warden like a whip lashing fiercely.
Amidst the lingering afterimages, numerous Beast Tamers on the platform before him were using every trick in the book to attempt escape to the shore.
However, a thin, transparent membrane appeared in the surrounding air.
Some of the Beast Tamers must have deployed the emergency Flash Summoning skill, which allows one to flicker to a target location within a brief duration, but this skill has a not insignificant cooldown period.
But these urgently flashing Beast Tamers looked like ants moving through a swamp; they flashed, but didn't completely escape.
Because they didn't reappear at the shore, but surfaced a certain distance from it in the water and then fell into it like dumplings.
It was as if they thought they could step across in one stride, yet the distance they traveled turned out to be shorter than expected.
"What is this!?"
"Is it a spatial lock ability?"
Some Beast Tamers exclaimed in alarm.
If it was a spatial ability, then the behemoth in the lake actually possessed a spatial attribute!
The pinnacle of spatial transcendence and ordinary transcendence were completely different; the deterrent power and value were much higher.
"It's not a spatial lock, it's some kind of law," an experienced elder on the shore said with a grave voice.
Ming Junting's brow furrowed, the monster in the lake was stronger than he had anticipated.
It had already begun to comprehend the laws.
Some special laws could influence the surrounding space.
The effectiveness of spatial abilities would be greatly compromised within the domain of these laws.
Experience exclusive tales on empire
For example, in the sphere of ice laws, when the freeze law expands and in a terrain abundant in the ice element, under the envelopment of the freeze law, all enemies' movements would be impeded, including the range of spatial abilities being shortened.
Ming Junting was also uncertain which law the lake behemoth was using since he had only heard of them; he had seen true powers of laws only a few times.
Inside the Beast Taming Space, Shadow however noticed some clues.
The law touched by the beast was the Water Element, somewhat resembling a slowing law.
That's because the Pale Warden's movements seemed to be getting slower than at the start, and not just it, the movements of the other Beast Tamers also seemed to slow down a bit.
In the middle of the lake, two behemoths battled fiercely.
The Pale Warden's huge tree-like arms tried to grasp the tentacles, but the lake behemoth was faster; its slippery tentacles easily avoided the capture, then switched angles to deliver heavy strikes to the Pale Warden's face.
Despite this, the Pale Warden displayed a remarkable ability to recover.
Every time the tentacle struck it with a deafening boom, fine cracks appeared on its body's surface, then healed rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The tentacle capable of splitting mountains and rocks hit it, producing only a dull sound, and seemingly did not greatly affect it.
Not just physical attacks; the lake behemoth also stirred up powerful waves, the mammoth waters of the Lake of Fire transforming into various Water Element skills raining down on the Pale Warden, and while it showed a certain aversion to water with its wood, fire, and metal attributes, the actual damage from these Water Element skills seemed to be far less than anticipated.
As the titanic clash between the two behemoths entered an intense stage, each confrontation caused giant waves to rise. The aftermath continuously rocked the surface of the lake, sending wave after wave crashing towards the shore.
Some sought to sneak into the water amidst the chaos, but invariably fell prey to the thunderous suppression of both Transcendent peaks, being directly blasted apart.
Despite their huge sizes, their perceptive abilities were far from poor.
Especially in combat, the two behemoths' attentiveness was at its peak.
At this time, not to mention a glaring Beast Taming, even a tiny sparrow flying into their range of attack would be noticed.
"Here they come," Ming Junting looked toward the distance.
Chen Xing followed Ming Junting's gaze, and behind a distant forest, a vast Beast Tamer army was barely visible.
But there was only one.
Where had the other two gone?
The instant he thought of this, Chen Xing turned to look behind him.
A bright red flag stood conspicuously erected beyond the mountain peak.
Several Beast Tamers clad in red armor appeared at the summit.
However, they did not take action, seeming to have concerns.
Chen Xing glanced at Ming Junting.
Ming Junting nodded faintly.
"They don't dare to make a move for now, acting now would only make them targets," he said.
"I hope your thing is truly useful," Chen Xing spoke gravely.
How Transcendent Beast Tamers retreat wasn't a big problem, when the Earth Fire erupts, the enemy won't have the energy to worry, but for the Beast Tamers below Transcendence, an eruption of Earth Fire was an unavoidable disaster.
"Of course it's useful." Ming Junting gave Chen Xing a reassuring glance.
As he spoke, Ming Junting took out a silver-white scale and handed it to Chen Xing.
"Gather all your people together in a moment, then activate the scale," he said.
On the mountain ridge behind them, two figures side by side, one to the left, one to the right, advanced shoulder to shoulder.
The one on the left was a military officer clad in armor, his broad body like a human-shaped raging bear.
The person on the right was wearing a tall coronet, a solemn dark red robe with red cloud patterns emblazoned on it, and floating behind him was a humanoid Beast Taming, this Beast Taming's head adorned with two curved goat horns, with muscles outlined on the bare skin, eyes narrow and emanating a chilling red light.
Two slender arms each wielded a curved blade.
What was eerie was its figure wasn't very clear but carried a blurred transparency, like a shadow reflected in a mirror.
