340. 73rd Archmage. Shaian (2)
A huge force engulfs space. The shimmering mana becomes tangible and begins to affect the world.
The power contained in it was a force that could not guarantee victory even if it was Taesan today.
Taesan looked at the magic lines painted on the walls and ceiling.
Those magic circles were summoning mighty power.
Kagagagak!
The tangible mana becomes a form and rushes into the world. As the sustained damage strikes Taesan, an intangible aura surrounds it and protects the owner.
Always active skill. It was the power of absolute divine protection. Shaian frowned at Taesan, who was not taking any damage.
“…I saw and confirmed the fight with the Spirit King, but he’s really immune to continuous damage. How can you have such a skill?”
Shaian clicks his tongue and shakes his head. Power begins to dwell in the staff in the hand.
“die.”
[Shyian activated the frozen world.]
[You activated the frozen world.]
Damn it!
Cold rushes from each other. The shards of ice shatter and tear apart everything.
And what was pushed back was the frozen world of Mount Tai.
As the skill level increased, the frozen world, whose power greatly increased,
was being pushed roughly like a bonfire blooming in the cold.
Taesan kicked his feet. Fortunately, the size of the 73rd floor was quite large. I was able to dodge by moving enough.
The cold engulfs the place where Taesan used to be.
Shaian brandishes his staff. Mana gathers and power is expressed.
[Shaiian activated the Shimmering Falls of Fire.]
The space opens, and sparks of flame appear.
Sparks that have fallen from rain water
run in all directions and begin to encroach on the space.
Taesan avoided it by calculating its trajectory and direction speed.
Taesan looked at Shaian.
Shaian hadn’t taken a single step out of that spot.
said the drinker. From now on, the guides of sin can also watch the battle of Taishan for a fair battle.
Shaian must have known the skills and abilities Taesan used while fighting the fire spirit king.
Taishan also knew him, so he tried not to give out as much information as possible, but the fire spirit king was a strong enemy to do his best. Taesan had no choice but to fight, revealing most of his hand.
Until now, Taesan had attacked and grasped the leaders, but now it was his turn to be attacked.
Then how far did Shaian respond to his power?
[You have activated Apostleization [Darkness and Chaos].]
The bowl of the King, the incarnation of nature. Activates numerous buff skills. It also activated the enemy of the person who stepped on the depth, a skill exclusive to deep adventurers, and gave strength to the hand holding the sword
.
[You activated Charm.]
Twist the trajectory of the sparks running in all directions.
Move the twin swords at the same time to create a path towards Shaian.
Give strength to your feet and kick them.
[You have activated Acceleration.]
[You have activated Skill Acceleration.]
Wheein! Taesan quickly
gets closer to Shaian .
Even if it wasn’t, he activated skill acceleration with high stats. It was a speed that was difficult for even the top brain to cope with.
As expected, Shaian also admired a little.
“Awesome. But… that’s all.”
Shaian lightly lowered his staff and took a picture.
[Shyian activated the twist.]
At that moment, the space was twisted.
Taesan’s body, which was charging at Shaian,
was suddenly running in the opposite direction due to the distortion of space.
Taesan clicked his tongue and quickly changed his posture. He sprinted toward Shaian again, but Shaian activated the twist again.
“Tsk.”
Taesan’s body, which was facing forward, was twisted to the left.
The space at a certain distance centered on Shaian was distorted.
“No matter how fast it is, it is just a physical movement. If you twist the space itself, you can’t access it.”
Shaian muttered and
raised his staff.
“You are obviously excellent. The power you possess must be one that is hard to find even throughout the history of the Labyrinth. But I am a magician.”
Keying.
The magic circles covering the floors emitted intense light.
“The immortal owner of the Great Mage Tower. I prepared and designed a lot of magic to kill you, and prepared this place.”
This was Shaian’s workshop and magician’s domain.
“Success under the overwhelming power of magic.”
[Shai’an activated a stack of magic.]
[Shai’an activated a frozen world.]
[Shai’an activated a starlight arrow.]
[Shai’an activated a shaking and echoing wave.]
The three magics manifested simultaneously.
but don’t drive
Magical power was concentrated and condensed on Shaian’s staff.
[Shyian activated Magic Liberation.]
And that power was released at once. The three intermediate magics overlapped and mixed and rushed toward Mount Tai.
The cold air was engulfing the light and swaying,
engulfing the entire space.
can not avoid. Taesan made a quick decision.
[You activated Greed of Destruction.]
The power contained in the bracelet arose and collided with the mixed magic.
The greed of destruction was pushed back, but greedily opened its mouth to swallow the magic.
The greed of destruction disappeared without being able to swallow all the power, but it was reduced to a level that Taesan could respond to. Taesan swung his sword and
attacked Shaian, cutting off magic.
He opened his inventory and took out a flute.
[You activate the flute that invites silence. All magic within the range is prohibited for 10 minutes.]
[The flow of mana cannot be blocked by the freely swaying mana magic gin. The activation of the flute that called for silence was forcibly cancelled.]
Taesan quickly put the flute in and gripped the sword again. I tried using it to create a variable, but
I didn’t believe it would work against the guide as it was the equipment I got from the lower floors.
[You activated Marvas’ jet-black waves.]
Waves of darkness cover all directions, blocking your vision. Taishan’s body is covered from Shaian.
[You activate stealth.]
For 1 second, Taesan escapes all detection. As soon as he was about to move to take advantage of Shaian’s gap, Shaian also responded.
[Shai An activated the gaze of sympathy for all things.]
The mana spread in all directions became Shaian’s gaze. Because the figure was revealed, the effect of the silver god is forcibly terminated.
“It’s a skill that hides your presence by covering your sight. If so, Daewoong is simple.”
[Shyian activated magic stacking.]
The stacked magic exploded again.
A wave of force that echoes throughout space.
The range of power is too wide to block. To push with force , Taesan’s loss was great
as the three intermediate magics overlapped .
The correct answer was to break through while taking damage, but then nullification of the attack would be triggered.
Taesan realized. That Shaian was trying to use up his attack nullifier right now.
[You are the spirit king of the wind. Minerva was summoned.]
[You have a colorful shield. Barcaza is summoned.]
The summoned Minerva and Barkaza immediately manifest their strength. The rainbow-colored wind explodes and
blows away the approaching magic.
“The owner is very busy!”
Minerva shouted and Shaian calmly lowered her staff. A silent magic circle starts to turn.
[Shaiian activated the exclusion of nature that was not permitted.]
Ku-gu-gu-gu-gung!
“Ugh!”
Minerva is momentarily bewitched by a moan. The energy of nature surrounding her begins to shake uneasy.
“The Spirit King is annoying, but it’s not difficult if you know its properties and prepare in advance.”
Shaian manifests magic again.
Minerva raised her strength and fought against her, but compared to her usual state, she was clearly weakened.
He was being attacked slowly.
Taesan made a decision. Even if it’s exhausting, I’ll try to find an opening.
“Minerva. Open the way.”
“okay!”
Minerva wields the wind. A storm
explodes and blows away the mana that engulfed the space.
[You have activated Acceleration.]
[You have activated Skill Acceleration.]
Seeing Taesan running at speed again, Shaian activates Torsion. The space around Shaian twists.
Taesan stamps her feet.
[You activated Limited Blink.]
Taesan moves in space right in front of Shaian.
Limited Blink is
a skill acquired after fighting the Fire Spirit King. It was a skill that Shaian also did not know about. Suddenly, a look of bewilderment flashes across his face.
But the embarrassment subsides immediately.
[Shyian activated a limited blink.]
At the same time as the sword was swung, Shaian’s body also moved.
Limited Blink is an intermediate level magic. There is no way that Shaian, who reached the depths with magic alone, could not have obtained it.
And Taesan knew that too
.
[You have activated Perfect Fairy Wings.]
[You have activated Acceleration.]
[You have activated Skill Acceleration.]
[You have activated Forced Fall.]
As Taishan’s body accelerates, the Sha Ian’s movements slow down.
Approaching with a limited blink, induces panic in the opponent, and when he responds, he immediately draws out another move and seeks an opening before clearing up the situation.
It really worked. Shaian
couldn’t activate Torsion until the moment Taesan was close by. It was the moment when Taishan was about to pierce Shaian’s body.
Shaian’s staff shone.
[Shyian activated the frozen world.]
Frost begins to form around Shaian.
Taesan was thinking of ignoring Shaian’s attack and digging in. Even if the attack nullification was consumed, as long as the attack was hit, there was a high probability that it would benefit him.
[Shai’an
activated the magic’s compulsory tuning.]
However, the frozen world did not rush to Tae-San and began to revolve around Shaian.
The frozen world condensed without exploding to protect Shaian.
[You have activated Absolute Judgment.]
Kagagak!
I tried to break through with absolute determination, but the frozen world is offensive magic. He forcibly tuned it and made it protect Shaian himself. It could never be subject to judgment.
The ice was cracked, but not pierced
.
As much as I tried to break through the defense, the response was inevitable. Taesan twisted his body late and tried to block it, but he couldn’t stop Shaian’s ensuing magic.
[Your first attack, Absolute Nullification has been activated.]
[Shaian activated Twist.]
As the space twists, the distance between Taishan and Shaian is forcibly increased.
In the end, Taishan couldn’t do any damage to Shaian.
Rather, only the nullification of the attack
was consumed.
Shaian arrogantly looks at Taishan.
“This is my territory. You cannot reach me.”
Magic circles begin to glow. Taesan moved his body as the magic swirled again.
Shaian cannot be approached. As they got closer, the twist was activated, and no matter how they pierced it, they were in a situation where they suffered damage from the magic that popped out one after another.
In the end, Taesan had no choice but to distance himself and block the swirling magic.
‘Perfect.’
Taesan was amazed.
Shaian had prepared numerous means to deal with him and it was working perfectly.
Blocks the activation of stealth and
consumes attack nullification with magic that encroaches on the entire space.
Skill acceleration is blocked by space distortion, and absolute judgment is resolved by using offensive magic as a means of defense.
The spirit king also uses a previously prepared magic circle to disrupt and suppress the flow of nature.
Taesan had just finished everything he could.
Taesan couldn’t use magic like this. It was a method that only those who reached the extreme among
wizards who devoted their lives to magic
could do it.
He probably also prepared a way to deal with the partial world change.
Consuming mana seemed impossible as the power of the magic circle went to Shaian.
Even after using intermediate magic dozens of times, Shaian did not feel any pressure.
Perfect preparation to take him down.
‘but.’
Even so, Taishan
does not lose.
What Shaian knows is the 70th floor of the mountain that defeated the Spirit King.
But now he is on the 73rd floor.
