Chapter 212: Forbidden Spells
The fire blizzard released by Kent swallowed the three power spells of the Vermillion Bird clan elders. But the three elders released the next set of spells simultaneously.
Soon Kent got busy defending the elders, and the patriarch began arranging the army in scorpion formation. With two sets of strong mages on the frontal sides, he arranged the long-range attackers on the back side. He took the position of string, i.e., far in the back, on his chariot.
Time moved rapidly as Kent immersed in a fierce battle with the three mages. The thousands of mages behind the three chariots made Kent fully busy in defending. On the rear side, the army began moving forward in scorpion formation.
"Young master, you should hurry. The scorpion formation is not an easy one to disrupt." Madvi spoke in a worried tone while moving the position of the chariot in the sky to evade several attacks.
"Don't worry, I'm waiting for the perfect movement. Once I finish these three chariots, immediately move our chariot to the rear end of the scorpion formation. Finishing the patriarch saves a lot of time for us." Kent replied while focusing on defending the enemy attack.
Madvi nodded her head and got ready in position. Her hands were shaking, and she was struggling to directly look at Kent's attacks, which flickered in the night sky.
While fighting Kent, the three elders of the Vermillion Bird clan completely ignored the dark clouds that were rapidly filling the entire sky.
Slowly, Kent gained the upper hand as he began taking out the lives of normal mages that were supporting three elders while defending big spells. But the three elders didn't consider it a big threat, as the large army is very close to them. Once the army of scorpion joins, it will take a few instances to finish off Kent.
Just everything seems perfect. Kent raised his bow high above his head and kneeled on one knee inside the chariot. "Divya Garuda Nabha Arohana" [Divine phoenix soaring through heavens.]
"Attack… Attack… Do not let him cast another legacy spell. Someone, stop that goddamn bastard." The three elders shouted loudly in fear and impatience. But the patriarch who stood in a long distance smiled smugly, thinking that before Kent cast another legacy spell, the three powerful spells of the elders would strike Kent head-on.
But his smug smile vanished in the next second. As Kent released the legacy spell [Divine Phoenix Soaring Through the Heavens], a loud phoenix cry shouted high in the sky. The dark sky turned red for a second, and the image of a phoenix flashed before everyone's eyes.
"What the…?"
"We are doomed."
"Save me, Lord."
The three elders felt an ominous feeling while staring at the red sky. As expected, the sky roared in anger, and a storm of tribulation lightning erupted over the sky.
"Run, run, escape." The mages who surrounded the three chariots began running away without looking back. But who can escape lightening?
"Hrummm…"
Three lightning bolts fell directly above the chariots, turning them into dust. The three elders didn't even have time to blink their eyes. Their bodies directly turned into red dust. In the next instance, the storm erupted, taking the lives of thousands of mages who were running away in fear.
On the other side, Madvi had already begun moving the chariot towards the rear end of the Vermillion Bird clan army, which stood in scorpion formation.
Meanwhile, the patriarch fell back on his chariot seat in a dazed state. There were several doubts swirling inside him as he wondered how to even defend against Kent. "How did I forget the power of the inheritor? I'm an idiot. That damn Golden Crow clan set me up against this inheritor purposefully.
Lord Vermillion, please save my clan from this doom." The patriarch prayed in a weak tone while staring at the sky, which turned red.
But the sound of a bow string woke him from his daze, and as he turned back to see, he froze in fear. He didn't expect Kent to appear behind him, ignoring the entire army in front. His grip around the sunstone staff tightened. With a heavy sigh, he stood up, commanding the charioteer to turn the chariot towards Kent.
A deep silence formed in the war sky as everyone is waiting for the patriarch's command. Fear filled everyone's heart. No one is expecting the patriarch to win against Kent. Many of them had already decided to run away if the patriarch fell in this war. But the loyal fighters were waiting for the patriarch command.
Raising his head slowly, the patriarch began beating the vermillion bird staff on the floor of the chariot in a rhythmic fashion. Following the patriarch, all the mages began making noise with their weapons.
"Great army of the Vermillion clan, Heed my command. Even if we have to die today, we must take the life of this inheritor. Use the forbidden aura transfer and power me to kill this inheritor. Sacrifice your life for the survival of our clan." The patriarch shouted in a serious tone while using powerful clan inscriptions of clan to defend against Kent's attack.
Hearing the command of the patriarch, several loyal mages began casting their pure auras towards the chariot. Thousands and thousands of aura streaks rushed towards the patriarch. Using this technique will dry out the life energy of mages, and they will face instant death in severe cases.
"Young master, finish him off as fast as you can. If the patriarch starts absorbing the pure aura, he can cast forbidden spells. They are making self-sacrifice to power up the patriarch. Hurry up." Madvi shouted in a hurried tone.
Kent, who already felt the changes in the aura fluctuation in the space around him, raised the bow horizontally before him and began casting a powerful legacy spell.
"Tekshna Asthra Shula Shakthi" [Celestial Phoenix blazing spear]
Kent aimed the arrow directly at the head of the patriarch and released the arrow spell. The arrow turned into a six-foot-long spear and rushed towards the patriarch.
Seeing the blazing spear with phoenix marks, the patriarch smirked and began casting a forbidden spell while absorbing the pure aura of thousands of mages who were scarifying their lives.
"Nisidha Sapitha Jwala Shula" [Forbidden cursed blazing spear]
As the patriarch raised his staff and released the spell, a black spear materialized with crackling fire energy,
"Boom"
