Arcane Journey

Chapter 425 Advanced Scroll
If these two spells were allowed to continue, it would only take a moment for Brian to be burned to ashes.

Of course he won't sit still.

Facing this seemingly combined spell of "Stimulating Wounds" and "Burning Blood", Brian's glowing red face reflected by the flames remained intact even though flames had begun to spread all over his body that could not be extinguished by conventional means. Appeared unusually calm and collected.

Although these two spells are obviously better than the real "Stimulate Wounds" and "Blood Burning", the flames mainly contain negative energy, and even their own curse fires cannot extinguish them, but the calm Bu Ryan, still quickly found a way to deal with it.

I saw him take out a magic scroll with a solemn expression, and then slightly raised the staff.

A dark blue energy shield emerged with the activation of the scroll recording the nine-ring spell, completely surrounding his body and the flames burning around him.

Under the ripples of the energy shield like deep blue waves, the flames were quickly extinguished at a speed visible to the naked eye.

To be precise, it should be completely absorbed.

While Bryan was extinguishing the flames, Sarukh Lich was naturally not idle. After all, the purpose of her quick release of spells through the two scrolls was to delay Brian's time as much as possible, so as to release a more powerful spell. spell.

By the time Bryan put out the flames, her spell was ready.

Accompanied by waves of irrepressible negative energy, under the guidance of the snake-shaped staff in the hands of the Sarukh Lich, shrouded her thin body, and in her sunken eye sockets, the dancing pale soul fire Suddenly extinguished, turning into two deep and dark hollows.

In an instant, the deep cavity was replaced by two small white skulls condensed by a pale energy at a speed visible to the naked eye, which looked extremely terrifying.

——"Eye of the Dead!"

The moment the spell was condensed into shape, Saluk Lich suddenly pointed at the staff in her hand. From her deep eye sockets, like sharp arrows, she shot two pale beams of light as thick as thumbs, hitting Brian's dark blue eyes in the blink of an eye. Energy shield.

Brian was naturally aware of the long-planned attack by the Lich.

However, what is surprising is that in the face of the Lich's attack, he was calm but a little scary, even though the two obviously powerful pale beams of light had hit his energy shield, he still ignored it , preparing his own spells calmly.

"How is this going?"

The Saluk Lich saw Brian's anomaly in an instant. She stared at him, frowned slightly, and immediately realized the seriousness of the problem, and couldn't help but cursed:
"Damn it, he actually has the rare spell scroll of energy absorption. No wonder he can absorb my burning blood and wound stimulation."

Energy absorption belongs to the spell of the Nine Rings Evocation Department, and its main function is to allow the caster to absorb and change the energy of magic.

And any form of magic can be absorbed by this spell, even including priests' divine spells, spell scrolls, and various supernatural and spell-like abilities.

Once the spell is absorbed, the manipulator can also activate it and return it to the caster, which belongs to the spells that can only be mastered by spellcasters who specialize in the evocation school.

Although the release time of this spell is very long, if the scales of the ancient golden dragon can be used as a material to make a spell scroll, the effect will be different.

After realizing the seriousness of the problem, the Lich quickly recited a few spells.

Then, the pupils in her eye sockets, which looked like two small white skulls, suddenly flew out of the eye sockets, and then gradually grew larger at a speed visible to the naked eye, until they turned into two white skeleton warriors.

These two skeletons, which obviously look different, are shrouded in negative energy enough to suffocate, emitting a hazy light.

They each held a magic blade that shone with cold luster, and they walked towards Brian very quickly to kill him.

At the same time, with the emergence of the two skeletons, the deep eye sockets of the Sarukh Lich also returned to their original shape, and the pale soul fire once again jumped out.

However, what appeared in the fire of the soul was a look of disappointment.

She thought she could use the two spell scrolls to delay Brian's actions, and then use this self-created "Eye of the Dead" and the two skeleton warriors she raised with the power of her soul to take advantage of the other party's panic , quickly end the battle on the battlefield.

Who would have thought that the opponent actually possessed a scroll of energy absorption.

Not only did she absorb the effects of Burning Blood and Wound Stimulation in an instant, but she even had a suppressive effect on her "Eye of the Dead", so much so that she had to release the two skeleton warriors in advance to resist.

Just as the Lich was worried, when two pale beams of light hit the dark blue energy shield surrounding Brian, all the terrifying energy was completely absorbed, making the entire shield Shine with a pale luster.

This is also the fundamental reason why Brian is so calm.

Seeing that his defensive magic had successfully absorbed the opponent's spell, Brian didn't waste any more time. He saw his eyes condensed slightly, and with a thought, it seemed that the pale beam of light that would be absorbed by the protective shield that was about to burst at any moment, came back again. Release them all, and shoot in the direction of Sarukh Lich again.

Seeing that this spell scroll had exerted corresponding effects, Brian secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and rejoiced that it was a wise choice for him to spend a huge price to get this special nine-ring spell scroll made for him.

Then, he didn't dare to waste time, and immediately launched his next round of attacks. After all, even a waste of a second in a battle of this level may determine the outcome.

——"Nine-ring spell: Ice Rage!"

The moment the pale beam of light hit the two creepy skeletons, Brian's spell was ready.

The howling ice energy, under Brian's control, condensed into sharp icicles that emerged from the ground out of thin air, turning into an ice cage, trapping the skeleton in place.

——"Nine Rings Spell: Meteor Burst!"

Immediately afterwards, one after another roared, and four meteors were forcibly condensed to the size of a skull by Bryan through arcane shaping, wrapped in manic energy that seemed to explode uncontrollably at any time, dragging their tail flames down from the sky, viciously It hit it.

In an instant!

The energy storm intertwined with frost, flame and strong negative energy roared and shrouded the entire small room, completely submerging the two skeletons summoned by the Saluk Lich.

The air waves of the explosion reverberated in the room, and even the space was slightly distorted due to the difference between the magic power of different attributes. Countless ice crystals were wrapped in flames, scattered in all directions, and turned into pieces of burning snowflakes again, falling to the ground , and melts and evaporates at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the room where the elements seemed to be completely out of control, even Brian, who was the caster of spells, could not survive the disaster, and had to consume arcane energy to prop up an energy protection barrier for himself in time to resist the attack. Howling storm.

At the same time, while secretly saving the spells that he needed to prepare next, he looked vigilantly at the billowing smoke that completely blocked his vision.

He knew that with these spells alone, it was impossible to completely kill the Sarukh Lich.

as predicted.

As the smoke and dust dissipated, Brian suddenly found that at some point, all the books in the room, including the secret ball of wisdom enchantment of the Sarukh race, had all disappeared, and only one by one was shining with a dull luster. The runes appeared on the wall one after another.

He instantly recognized through his magic knowledge that these are the most taboo and deadly necromantic runes.

When he took two steps back subconsciously, complex undead runes and emblems immediately flashed dim red or gray light.

Then Brian forcibly passed an instant death saving throw similar to the death spell.

Although he possesses the soul of the legendary Grace Holy Flame, which allows him to be immune to all death spells, magical death effects, energy absorption and any negative energy effects of the necromancy school, when Brian was exempting from the death spell, he was surprised to find that, His own legendary favor was temporarily weakened because of this.

Although this weakening is temporary, and it is only a matter of time before it recovers, he cannot be taken lightly right now, after all, he has been completely surrounded by various death spells.

If his legendary favor is really weakened by the death spell and temporarily loses its effect, then the only thing that greets him is death.

Brian didn't dare to be careless. Faced with this situation, he took out another high-level magic scroll that he had prepared before leaving almost without thinking.

This is a scroll that records the Nine Rings Divine Art. After collecting the materials for making it, he asked the legendary priest of the Temple of Knowledge to help him transcribe it, just in case.

What he didn't expect was that it would come in handy so quickly.

"You still have other options." At this moment, the idea of ​​the golden dragon Paralandax sounded in Brian's mind, "I have already noticed that the space confinement here has disappeared, that is to say, as long as you You can leave here anytime you want."

"The space confinement has disappeared?" Brian was startled for a moment, and then he showed a look of surprise, and then smiled, "Obviously, this lich can't hold it anymore, it has already hit this level, why should I choose Escaping, taking advantage of the victory and pursuing it is the best choice."

The last worry in his heart disappeared, he let go of his hands and feet completely, and activated this precious scroll without hesitation.

——"Advanced Glory Protection!"

With the activation of the magic scroll, Brian's body was instantly surrounded by a layer of spiritual energy shining with divine light.

Immediately afterwards, all the death spells that tried to erode him, in front of this layer of radiant protection, were like deep darkness being dispelled by light, and faded away like a tide in an instant.

As Bryan continued to use the flashing spell to change directions, all the necromantic runes around him seemed to be stepped on landmines. They were dispersed by the light of the shining protection, exploded, and turned into rune fragments one by one, and then became dim. No light, no effect.

Seeing this situation, the already frightening face of the Sarukh Lich hiding in the shadows suddenly became even more ugly. Obviously, he did not expect that his two attack methods in succession were all from this difficult guy Easily resolved with a spell scroll.

She gave Brian a vicious look, and after secretly making up her mind, she suddenly raised her withered arm, and pointed the staff engraved with a snake pattern at him.

The moment the wand was pointed at Brian, an unimaginable energy burst out.

Under the guidance of this terrifying energy, the space Brian was in suddenly collapsed, and a bottomless void appeared.

Then this crack seemed to open a certain negative energy defending barrier, pouring out waves of surging death energy like a waterfall, rushing towards Brian violently.

At this moment, Brian, who was in front of the crack in the void, was still like a swaying tree in the wind and rain, even though he was surrounded by aura shining with holy light. Under the washing of violent energy, the aura also became dim at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeing what happened to Brian, the Saluk Lich didn't show a relaxed expression, but became more and more dignified.

Because as she activated the only void crack in the staff at all costs, even she herself had to endure the backlash brought by the powerful energy.

And what worries her the most is that such a fierce battle here is likely to wake up those sleeping Sarukh shamans. If her people are brought here, then she will be in big trouble.

This is also the fundamental reason why she has been unable to let go of her hands and feet during the battle with Brian.

But now, she has no scruples.

Because as the battle between the two intensified, the once imprisoned space was completely shattered with the opening of void cracks.

It can be said that as long as the other party is willing, they can escape from this place at any time through the teleportation spell.

But Brian didn't do that. He not only gritted his teeth and endured the energy scour, but also wanted to kill her here.

With his own life in danger, the Sarukh Lich couldn't care less.

At this moment, her only goal is to kill this arrogant intruder first.

As for worrying about waking up the sleeping clansmen because of this, she had long since thrown them out of the blue.

Thinking of this, Sarukh Lich had a thought, and injected his little energy into the staff in his hand again.

In an instant, the gap in the void behind Brian grew bigger with the injection of energy, and the poured out energy naturally became even more violent.

In just a moment, he mercilessly broke through Brian's high-level brilliance protection.

Just when the Sarukh Lich thought he was sure of winning, he discovered in disbelief that a huge pale golden dragon phantom appeared from behind Brian, and then a thick golden magic barrier emerged, surrounding them , completely isolated from the void crack.

Immediately afterwards, the staff in Lich's hand broke completely due to energy overload.
