Chaos Heavenly Emperor Art

The cold, mechanical voices echoed once again across the battlefield.

Ling Feng gripped the chess piece tightly in his hand, fine beads of sweat already forming on his forehead.

Looking at the majestic Frost Wall opposite him, and the fifty fused Flame Demons behind it, he felt an unprecedented sense of oppression.

"We can't continue to be so passive."

Ling Feng took a deep breath; he had to find a breakthrough.

Otherwise, given the opponent's overwhelming numerical advantage, even if he only defends every round, he will not be able to gain any more points until the end of the game.

We must first try various approaches before formulating further plans.

As the Seven-Colored Spirit just mentioned, it's about having a broad perspective and strategic combinations.

Therefore, he must remain as calm as possible!

Only by calming down can we dispel the fog and find a glimmer of hope.

"Summon the Heavenly Fusion!"

Ling Feng gave a low shout and threw Rong Tian's chess piece into the sand table.

As the chess piece was placed, Rong Tian's figure appeared on the battlefield.

"Activate the Fusion Heaven Skill Card - Spirit Breath Net!"

Ling Feng played a gold card without hesitation.

The card transformed into a beam of green light and entered Rong Tian's body.

The next moment, Rong Tian formed hand seals, and countless tiny spiritual singularities appeared around his body. These singularities danced like fireflies and quickly condensed into a huge net, enveloping the Flame Demon opposite him.

"Trying to trap my fire demon?"

The seven-colored spirit chuckled and waved its hand, sending out a golden card. "Activate the Ice Giant skill - Frost Barrier!"

boom!
A massive ice wall suddenly rose atop the Frost Great Wall, blocking the Spirit Net from the outside.

The net struck the ice wall with a muffled thud, then slowly dissipated.

"what?!"

Ling Feng's eyes widened.

"How about it, are you surprised?"

The seven-colored spirit smiled faintly and continued, "This involves skill counterplay in this game. All skills can be countered in an instant. It's not a simple matter of attacking in turn. As long as you have action points, you can counter your opponent's move with a counter-skill the moment they make it. How about that, interesting?"

Ling Feng clenched his fists.

interesting?

This was a game of chess with the lives of five companions at stake, and he found it anything but interesting.

Every minute and every second was an immense torment to his soul.

Then the seven-colored spirit continued, "And don't forget, I have a total of fifty Flame Demons. Even if you manage to trap one, it won't change anything."

Ling Feng gritted his teeth, a sense of powerlessness rising in his heart.

Looking at the five figures on the sand table battlefield, he clenched his fists tightly.

At this point, all of his combat units have been summoned, and all action points can now be used to combine combat skills.

Fortunately, the Ancient Ones all possess area-of-effect skills that can attack a wide area. As long as we find a way to break through the enemy's shield value, or deal damage in other forms, such as true damage or elemental damage, we can effectively attack the enemy.

He gripped the skill card in his hand and began to carefully study all the abilities of the Ancient Ones.

Ancient Ancestral Spirit Dragon: [True Form of the Ancestral Dragon]: Summons the true form of the Ancestral Dragon for 3 rounds, doubling attack and defense, and restoring 10% HP each round. Activated, 1 round remaining.

【Imperial Decree - Rejection】: Forcefully reduces fatal damage to 1 point, and adds a knockback interruption.

【Yinzhen·Duanliu】: Enemy's next turn action value -3, additionally reduces group shield by 5 points.

【Comrades-in-Arms - Sharing the Burden】: Designated generals share 40% of the damage, triggering a weakened version of Heavenly Guardian when near death.

These skills seem quite complex, and you must use them flexibly to achieve the strongest combination effect.

Just then, the Frost Wall on the opposite side launched "Frostfall" again, and the newly summoned Fusion Sky lost another five health points.

Ling Feng's expression grew increasingly gloomy. After several rounds, he not only failed to gain any points, but his warrior was also losing health points every round.

Round six, begin!
Ling Feng's gaze sharpened, and he launched the first attack, "Activate the Ancient Skill Card - Ancestral Dragon True Form!"

Ling Feng played a gold card.

The ancient creature roared to the sky, its body suddenly expanding, revealing its true form as the Ancestral Dragon. Its golden scales shimmered with dazzling light, and a terrifying pressure spread out.

In the form of the Ancestral Dragon, the Ancient Desolate's attack and defense are increased by three rounds, and it can recover health points in each round.

When under attack buff status, the power of all skills will also increase.

"Oh? Looks like you're planning to have a go at me?"

The seven-colored spirit raised an eyebrow. "However, don't blame me for not reminding you, my shield value hasn't disappeared yet. If you launch an attack now, you'll only hit the shield."

He waved his hand and shouted, "Activate the Flame Demon's innate skill—Flame Sacrifice!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the ten Flame Demons suddenly exploded, turning into balls of blazing flames that merged into the bodies of the remaining forty Flame Demons.

The bodies of those fire demons swelled again, and the health points above their heads soared from 25 to 35.

"Sacrifice ten to enhance the remaining forty?"

Ling Feng's eyelids twitched.

"Yes."

The seven-colored spirit smiled slightly, "Moreover, the fire power generated by the sacrifice will also trigger the linkage effect of the Frost Wall—Ice and Fire Resonance!"

boom!
A layer of pale blue flames suddenly ignited on the Frosty Great Wall.

The flames exuded an aura of extreme cold and extreme heat, as if they could freeze everything, or burn everything.

"Ice and Fire Resonance Effect: At the end of each round, deal 5 points of mixed ice and fire damage to all enemy units, ignoring shield values."

The seven-colored artifact spirit said calmly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the four warriors above Ling Feng's head—Yao Tian, ​​Yu Tian, ​​Huang Gu, and Rong Tian—simultaneously displayed a "-5" mark.

The five stars dimmed once more.

Ling Feng's face immediately turned extremely ugly.

What used to be a random attack that deducted health from one unit has now become a group attack.

At this rate, wouldn't all of his generals be wiped out in twenty rounds?

Damn it!

Ling Feng cursed under his breath and shouted, "Ancient Ancestral Spirit Dragon, activate skill—Dragon Breath Suppresses Prison!"

In an instant, the Ancient True Man raised his head high and spewed a scorching dragon breath at the opponent's Frost Wall.

boom!
With a deafening explosion, the Frost Wall crumbled completely. "Oh?"

The seven-colored spirit smiled. "It seems you've already mastered it after just a few rounds. Then I won't hold back any longer."

"I have three action points left. That's enough for three Frost Giants to summon the Frost Wall again."

The next moment, a flash of light appeared in his hand, and the shattered Frost Wall rose up from the ground once more. His passive skill, Frostfall, was activated, and he was about to attack the opponent.

Ling Feng's gaze sharpened, and he instantly shouted, "Activate the Shitian Skill Card - Heavenly Guardian!"

Ling Feng played a gold card.

Shi Tian raised his hands high, and the Seal of Heaven suddenly expanded, transforming into a golden light shield that enveloped all five warriors.

[Heavenly Guardian: Grants all allies a holy shield that absorbs 30 points of damage from any attribute for two turns.]

Unlike ordinary defensive shields, this divine shield can absorb even true damage.

In an instant, the frost-covered rocks struck the head of the Ancient Desolate One, but only deducted five points of Holy Shield value, which relieved Ling Feng.

With Shi Tian's skill, he was able to catch his breath for a while.

However, the cooldown of the Heavenly Guardian is as long as five rounds, and judging from the first few moves of the Seven-Colored Spirit, it is clear that it is following the path of fusion evolution.

This also means that his unit advantage will continuously translate into numerical advantage, ultimately resulting in absolute crushing defeat for him.

If he can't eliminate the unit advantage in the early game, he'll find it difficult to break through in the late game.

Round 7 begins!
The seven-colored artifact spirit smiled and looked at Ling Feng, "Beautiful move, but it was a bit of a waste!"

He waved his hand, "Activate the exclusive skill card!"

Ling Feng's eyelids twitched suddenly. The Seven-Colored Spirit's exclusive ability was to summon up to one hundred units to the field with 0 action points.

The three-round cooldown is over so quickly!
Rumble!
The battlefield roared, and then, with a wave of its hand, the seven-colored spirit of the artifact cracked open, and towering statues rose up to guard it.

Another hundred statues!

Immediately afterwards, the passive defense was activated, granting another 300 shield points, making it all the more despairing to watch.

Ling Feng clenched his fists. No wonder the Seven-Colored Artifact Spirit said that using Heavenly Guardian was a waste, because if he didn't launch an attack, the duration of the Divine Shield would be wasted.

The shield will disappear in the next round.

Ling Feng could only grit his teeth and say, "Activate Yu Tian skill card - Extreme Cold Storm!"

hum-

Suddenly, dark clouds covered the sky above the battlefield.

Countless snowflakes drifted down from the dark clouds, each one containing the power of extreme cold, falling from the enemy's position with a hissing sound.

"Extreme Cold Storm effect: Deals 9 damage to all enemy units each round for five rounds. Also, there is a 10% chance to freeze the target, preventing them from acting for one round."

Although the damage from the Arctic Storm will be negated in the current round, the storm lasts for five rounds, which should deplete some of the target's health.

At the same time, Huang Gu, having activated his Ancestral Dragon True Form, once again unleashed Dragon Breath Suppression, directly destroying the enemy's Frost Wall.

You take five points of random true damage each round, but you can't just tank it.

Next, Ling Feng had Rong Tian, ​​Shi Tian, ​​and Yao Tian activate their defenses to increase shield values ​​and prevent them from taking too much damage when the opponent attacks in the next round.

After all, the Heavenly Guardian will be ineffective in the next round, and there are still three rounds of cooldown remaining.

"Round 8, begin!"

The cold voice echoed once again in the empty battlefield.

Ling Feng stared intently at the sand table, sweat trickling down his face.

The failure of the divine shield protecting him made him feel very insecure.

On the other hand, the seven-colored artifact spirits were surrounded by forty enhanced flame demons, one hundred statue guards, and three ice giants, all eyeing them menacingly.

Although each turn has a fixed 10 action points, the Seven-Colored Spirit cannot make all units launch an attack, but the combined shield value of so many units is enough to give Ling Feng a headache.

Therefore, we must find a way to reduce the number of enemy members in order to damage the Seven-Colored Spirit, obtain enough points, and exchange them for suitable exclusive skill cards.

Ling Feng's fingers traced across the air as he mentally deduced various skill combinations of the five warriors in his hands.

"We must first find a breakthrough."

Ling Feng gritted his teeth, pondered for a long time, and finally made a decision.

"Activate the Fusion Heaven Skill Card - Lingering Breath Graft! Target: Ancient Ancestral Spirit Dragon!"

The golden card flew out and disappeared into Rong Tian's body.

Rong Tian formed a hand seal, and a dark green beam of light connected him with the Ancient Desolation.

Above Huang Gu's head, his health dropped from 100% to 60%, a decrease of 40%.

At the same time, a layer of emerald green shield appeared on the surface of the Ancient Desolate, with a shield value of +80.

"Activate Yao Tian Skill Card - Blazing Flames!"

Ling Feng played the second card without hesitation.

Yao Tian roared to the sky, raised his hands high, and a blazing flame condensed in his palms before being violently pushed towards the enemy's position!
boom!
Flames swept across the enemy camp like a tsunami, engulfing the entire enemy territory.

[Burning Flames: All enemies take 20 damage and are inflicted with a burning effect, dealing 5 damage per turn for 3 turns.]

however--

"-0"

"-0"

"-0"

"..."

All the damage was absorbed by the shield.

Even the burning effect cannot cause actual damage to the enemy's health due to the presence of the shield.

The moment the damage numbers appeared, the seven-colored spirit burst into laughter, "Haha, still haven't learned your lesson? Wasting skill attacks on shields is completely pointless."

He waved his hand, "Ice Giant, activate your summoning skill—Frost Wall."

"Activate the Flame Frenzy's innate skill - Flame Sacrifice"

They're using the same old trick again.

The Frost Wall rose again, and ten more Flame Demons sacrificed themselves, merging into the bodies of the other Flame Demons. The remaining 30 Flame Demons swelled again, their health points soaring from 35 to 55.

boom!
At the same time, huge frost rocks fell from the sky, triggering the ice and fire resonance effect, causing all of Ling Feng's generals to lose 5 health points.

Of course, the Ancient One is an exception. Under the skill effect of the Remnant Breath Graft, his 80-point shield is similar to the holy shield deployed by the Heavenly Guardian, which can absorb all elemental damage.

Ling Feng took a deep breath, his gaze sharpened, and he revealed another skill card.

"Activate the Ancient Skill Card - Dragon's Breath Suppresses the Prison!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Ancient One, in its true form, unleashed its dragon breath. This time, it triggered the passive effect "Unyielding Dragon Soul," reducing its health and greatly increasing its attack power.

With a crisp "crack," the shield atop the statue's head shattered.

When the Dragon's Breath Suppresses Armor Shattering effect is triggered, it adds 10 points of true damage.

In an instant, the statue guard shattered.

Immediately afterwards, a notification sounded: The Ember effect has been triggered. You can choose to reclaim action points or increase damage.

It turned out that although Yao Tian's blazing flames had not caused any actual damage, the burning effect had already been applied.

The target that Huang Gu chose to attack was the statue guard that had been successfully inflicted with the burning effect.

A glint flashed in Ling Feng's eyes, and he immediately chose to retrieve the action points.

Then, "Dragon's Breath Suppresses the Prison" was activated again.

After the action points were collected, the skill's original one-turn cooldown was completely negated. Ling Feng then selected another statue guard with the burn effect, and then...

The perpetual motion machine has begun!

Shatter armor, deal additional true damage, then trigger Ember of Eternity, then recover and attack again!

In the blink of an eye, more than twenty statues guarded by burning statues had been instantly killed.

Ling Feng clenched his fists tightly. For the first time in the entire battle, he had finally gained control of the rhythm of the fight. (End of Chapter)
