Chapter 92 - 80: Painter Long Yi_3

Long Yi doesn’t have to tread lightly, as the noise at an ordinary level is unlikely to awaken Bajie.

However, upon entering the dormitory room, Long Yi distinctly noticed something amiss. He couldn’t immediately pinpoint why, but there was undeniably something off. It was as if each step he took induced a feeling of uneasiness!

A touch of alertness sprang up in his heart!

Trap!

Long Yi’s Fighting Aura exploded forth and his Giant Bloodline sped into action, turning everything before his eyes into a fuzz! However, amidst the blur, he felt an overwhelming pressure of magic closing in!

Ethereal Light Shield!

Long Yi roared, his Fighting Aura bursting forth!

Boom!

An inexplicable explosion propelled Long Yi out, his clothes shredded into fragments! Fortunately, the Dragon Scale armor on him was still functioning and not torn apart. Despite the massive impact, it ensured that Long Yi did not become bare yet again.

The severe impact finally woke Long Yi up, and he saw that he was not in his dormitory at all, he was in fact on an uninhabited hilltop outside the city!

It was already night time! And the brightly lit Academy City was in the distance straight ahead!

Damn it! How did he unknowingly wander so far off? And was completely unaware of it? What kind of mind attack was this?

"Hahaha, Long Yi, you indeed are extraordinary. Your innate sense of danger allowed you to narrowly escape this time."

A rough voice drew Long Yi’s attention to the attacker.

The man in black was missing a leg, the wound roughly bandaged, but his blood was still seeping out. He either lacked proper emergency medical knowledge or preparation, or both. The black fog that shrouded him had disappeared and Long Yi could vaguely see his eyes reflecting the light.

Long Yi stared at the man, not uttering a word, as if he was contemplating something.

"I advise you not to guess my identity, you will never figure it out. You’ve ruined my plan, the only way to atone is by dying!" the man in black said.

"No, I’m just wondering why your last white light didn’t have any magic fluctuations in it, and why I, with my high mental strength, fell for it?" Long Yi responded.

"Aha! Hahaha! Hahahaha!" The man in black burst into laughter.

"You noticed? You really noticed! Haha, no wonder you’re considered a genius, Long Yi. Even those self-professed geniuses couldn’t comprehend the subtlety of my technique, but you spotted it? Oh, if it wasn’t for this incident, I would really think about taking you as my disciple! Unfortunately, you don’t have that fate!"

Before he finished speaking, Mana locked onto Long Yi!

"Dark Vision!"

"Dark Binding!"

"Dark Impact!"

Three magic spells Long Yi had never heard before were shouted out in succession by his opponent. Long Yi, who hadn’t even learned the relevant Dragon Language, shouted them out in clumsy Dragon Language anyway! He even remembered others!

"Ethereal Light Shield!"

"Sail with the Wind!"

"Sharpened Senses!"

"Mana Tide!"

"Double Spellcasting!"

"Burst Spellcasting!"

"Dark Vision!"

"Dark Binding!"

"Dark Impact!"

Long Yi’s speech was incredibly fast, completely unlike other mages who feared mispronouncing a word might cause Mana backlash. He finished these words almost at the same speed as the man in black, so fast that even he couldn’t discern what he was saying!

A shield radiating faint light enveloped his body, making him feel lighter.

Although it was night, Long Yi’s vision suddenly brightened for a moment, and the next instant, it was as if it was daylight! Damn, the Double Spellcasting affected the Dark Vision, and the brightness was a bit too high! Long Yi had to squint slightly to prevent the distant lights from blinding him.

The very next moment, dark energy surged out from both their palms, binding on the counterpart, suppressing their strength. Simultaneously, a strange array sprung up under their feet, causing the rotation of dark energy to explode like a fountain!

Nonetheless, it wasn’t over yet! Long Yi’s Double Spellcasting was activated instantly, triggering another Dark Binding, a Dark Impact, and then another!

Three successive Dark Bindings and Dark Impacts!

The Dark Binding not only restrained, leaving no room for movement but also suppressed the opponent’s magic level based on one’s own.

When the energy faded, Long Yi stood still, unable to move. He felt a burning sensation on his skin as his nine layers of magic could not function at all. Looking around, Long Yi was standing in a large pit with a radius of one meter. The dark energy seemed to have a strong corrosive effect. If it weren’t for the Dragon Scale Armor derived from Bajie’s sturdy back scales, perhaps he wouldn’t even be able to maintain any of his magic levels, let alone his Fighting Aura. Unsurprisingly, had he not had the Dragon Scale armor to protect him, he would likely have lost his life!

But the man in black was even more shocked than Long Yi!

Long Yi was still alive!
