“Wind Thrall Domain!”

Zorro’s Domain rapidly enveloped the area. White winds continued to circle him fiercely. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ (f)ir(e).nᴇt

As the Domain was established, apart from some obvious changes to the man’s aura, the members of the alliance did not feel any extraordinary pressure. Gamennon was incredibly annoyed by Zorro’s superior demeanor. He channeled his magic and cast a Poison Spell.

As soon as the channeling started, a strong gust of wind appeared under Gamennon’s feet.

Just as Gamennon finished channeling the spell, the gust spiraled and turned into a powerful tornado!

Gamennon reacted fairly quickly, and immediately dodged aside when he noticed the tornado, yet he lost the chance to complete his spell.

On the other hand, Ai Jiangtu and Mu Ningxue were also channeling their spells, and similar fierce gusts erupted below their feet and turned into tornadoes, each over three meters wide and twenty meters tall. They were as strong as an Advanced Wind Spell!

Mo Fan was utterly confused. His right hand was already engulfed in flames, but as soon as he was about to throw the Meteorite Fist forward, he immediately felt a strong wind rising under his feet, trying to shred him to pieces!

Mo Fan’s eyes glittered, and he used his will to shatter the tornado rising around him.

Mo Fan quickly attacked with his Meteorite Fist as soon as the wind dissipated.

To Mo Fan’s surprise, the same tornado appeared once again, quicker than Mo Fan could cast his spell. Mo Fan had no choice but to cancel his channeling!

The others were having the same trouble as Mo Fan. Whenever someone was casting a spell, even if it was only a weak Basic spell, a tornado would rise as soon as the Star Orbits were being drawn.

In addition to that, the stronger the spells they were casting, the stronger the tornadoes that appeared to interrupt them! When Gamennon tried to attack with an Advanced Spell, he ended up summoning a strong tornado more than eight meters wide, tossing him into the air.

“It must be the power of his Domain!” Asha’ruiya exclaimed.

A tornado would erupt whenever there was some presence of magic. The seven of them could not land a single attack on Zorro successfully!

Zorro was looking incredibly smug. He took the initiative to attack while none of his enemies could Cast. His eyes emitted a white glow; they looked empty, yet cloudy like a storm.

Zorro’s legs left the ground, hovering above it. The seven members of the alliance each stood in a different spot, but seven enormous tornadoes appeared suddenly, each with a diameter of ten meters and a height of over a hundred meters, as if they were connected to the clouds.

The power of the seven tornadoes of such scale was immeasurable. The group was forced to defend themselves with defensive spells!

“You’re just trying to fool us with your tricks! Do you really think you can fight seven of us at the same time!?”

Still in the air, the infuriated Gamennon was engulfed in scorching flames. The blazing fire tore through the wind and lunged at Zorro.

Zorro still had Wind Wings on his back, so his speed was shocking. Mo Fan and Asha’ruiya were planning to restrain his movement with the Space Element, but they realized that their casting speed was too slow compared to his speed. The man had already moved by the time the rhomboids appeared.

Zorro dodged Gamennon’s flames, looking down at the people encapsulated by the tornadoes. He quickly dodged sideways, evading an Icebound Coffin falling from the sky!

Mu Ningxue had cast the Icebound Coffin. As she murmured softly, more Icebound Coffins began to fall from the sky.

Zorro dodged the spells continuously. He seemed to be panicking a little, most likely because he did not expect Mu Ningxue was able to Summon so many Icebound Coffins at once!

“Let’s pin him down!” Asha’ruiya said to Mo Fan and Ai Jiangtu.

All three of them were Space Mages. They first applied a layer of defense to themselves, preventing the tornadoes from interrupting their channeling.

The rhomboids swiftly took shape and crashed onto Zorro as his movement was limited by Mu Ningxue’s Icebound Coffins. Zorro immediately felt a ton heavier when the rhomboids struck him. He fell straight to the ground.

Zorro was struggling to move after landing on the ground. After all, the Space magic of Mo Fan, Ai Jiangtu, and Asha’ruiya was pretty strong, especially when they were focusing it on a single person. They had basically sealed off his ability to move!

“Attack!” someone in the group yelled. Everyone set up their defenses to prevent the strange tornadoes from interrupting their channeling.

The tornadoes appeared, but the group was not too bothered by them. The colorful glow of the destructive spells flew at Zorro, who could not even budge.

The color of Zorro’s pupils changed once again. This time, his eyes completely turned empty, like the pitch-black darkness of space without a single star nearby!

“Chaos Gate!” Zorro uttered coldly. Four twisting gaps appeared around him, absorbing the lightning, fire, light arrows, and fierce tide that were targeting him...

The destructive spells vanished into thin air after making contact with the twisting gaps, as if they were transferred to a different world.

Not a sign of the destructive spells was left. Zorro was perfectly unharmed; even the grass where he was standing on did not receive the slightest damage.

“Back to you!” Zorro’s eyes glittered. The twisted Chaos Gate started spinning around Zorro, as several spells surged out, including a Sky-Flame Funeral that shrouded the sky, a lightning claw tearing at Mo Fan, and a giant light arrow firing at Asha’ruiya...

The seven of them paled. The destructive spells they had just cast had been reflected back at them! Most terrifyingly, it seemed like the spells were even stronger than before!

The group of seven was blasted by the spells. Some were forced to use their defensive equipment instead.

The destructive spells that came late were targeting them now, while Zorro was still perfectly unharmed standing in the middle!

The strong winds of the explosions blew the dust into the air. Zorro broke free from the Gravitational Space that the three Space Mages had applied on him and rose back into the air.

His Wind Wings were beating softly. Zorro constructed a white Star Constellation as the group was recovering from the attacks they had received.

Someone tried to interrupt the channeling with the Psychic Element, but it failed as Ayleen was protecting Zorro now. Ayleen used all she had to stop Nanyu’s Sound Magic, too!

“Gate to the plane of the Kingdom of Insects, open!”

The lunar-white Star Constellation was completed rapidly. Zorro did not cast a destructive spell, but the Advanced Summoning Spell.

The Star Constellation of the Summoning Element fired a perpendicular ray into the ground. A bottomless hole ten meters wide suddenly appeared on the ground.

It looked like a hole that light could not enter, a dark gate to another plane. As everyone was confused by what the spell was trying to achieve, the cries of bugs as piercing as the screeching of lightning were heard.

A demonic pitch-black insect with bloody pincers climbed out of the hole. Its feelers rose into the air and wavered in the wind.

Soon, the second insect appeared. They went enraged after capturing the scent of humans, and charged right at Mu Ningxue, who was the closest to them.

Before Mu Ningxue could slaughter the two insects, several more insects of the same kind climbed out of the hole.

Mo Fan. who was standing on higher ground, gasped as he looked into the hole.

The bottomless hole was crawling with the black insects. They were pouring out from the hole like a black tide, and within the blink of an eye, hundreds of insects had reached the surface. It was obvious that these insects were only just the beginning!

The whole place was crawling with insects. The Underground Demonic Worm that had dragged Karolina into the ground appeared too. It stopped pursuing Karolina endlessly and screeched to command the insects.

The sight of the insects was so terrifying that the spectators did not dare to look at them further.

Floating above the army of insects, Zorro said with a mocking grin, “If those goddamned undead of the Egypt team had not suppressed my Underground Demonic Worm, I wouldn’t even have had to fight you guys in this mixed battle!”

Zorro clearly held a grudge against the Egyptian team, since his team had lost because of the Egyptian team’s dirty strategy.

Zorro’s primary Element was Wind, his secondary was Summoning, and his tertiary was Chaos. His three Elements were completely useless against the sturdy defense of the undead. His Wind Thrall Domain was utterly useless, since the Egypt team was only using their Undead Element. Furthermore, his demonic insects were rulers of the underground too, yet they were surprisingly afraid of the filthy undead. He could not even Summon them during the match against the Egypt team. Otherwise, how could he possibly have lost against them?

All three of his Elements were ineffective against the Egypt team, yet when facing normal Mages, he was easily dominating. As long as Ayleen was there to protect him from the enemy’s Psychic Spells, Zorro did not care how many opponents he was fighting at the same time!

“You did the right thing sending him away just then.” Mo Fan had a helpless look as he watched the insects crawling over the area.

The Chaos Element...

This Zorro turned out to be a Chaos Mage. Even if the Chaos Element was not Zorro’s primary Element, it still gave Mo Fan quite a headache!

Mo Fan was a destructive Mage, while the Chaos Element was known for its ability to absorb other people’s spells and reflect them back at their enemy!

Mo Fan believed that it was better for him to do nothing facing a Mage with the Chaos Element, since he would only endanger himself and his teammates.

Mo Fan’s destructive spells were quite terrifying, yet the Chaos Gate was able to strengthen attacking spells as they were being reflected. His Sky Lightning Claw that had been reflected had almost injured Nanyu just now!.

The number of insects was too overwhelming. Mo Fan had no intention of wasting his energy on them.

The Advanced Summoning Spell was able to summon lots of creatures to fight for the Summoner. The spell was ridiculously powerful, but it had a time constraint too. The insects might be annoying, but they could not pose any threat to Mo Fan, the man with six Elements. That being said, the others were clearly going to struggle against the insects.

This Zorro was indeed the strongest participant in the tournament. He still had the upper hand, even when he was fighting nine people at once. However, Mo Fan believed having more people around would actually give Zorro an advantage. The guy wanted more people to attack him, just so he could fully utilize the advantage of his Domain and his Chaos Element!
