Chapter 2344 Shameless and Opportunistic
...
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Solfang darted across the battlefield, repeatedly attacking the Heavenly Dominator with his blazing saber and Devouring Flames.
However, the longer he fought, the more he realized that something was wrong.
Initially, his attacks had been highly effective against the elemental armor protecting the Heavenly Dominator. His Devouring Flames could steadily consume the elemental mana sustaining its defenses, weakening its protective layer while occasionally dealing considerable damage.
But after several more exchanges, Solfang began noticing that the effectiveness of his Devouring Flames was gradually diminishing.
Although his flames could still shred through the elemental armor, the rate at which they consumed its elemental mana had slowed considerably.
Shing! Shing! Shing!
Solfang swung his blazing saber repeatedly, unleashing several enormous fiery crescents that shot straight toward the Heavenly Dominator’s back.
These attacks were considerably more powerful than his ordinary strikes. The surrounding mana was rapidly drawn toward the blazing crescents, continuously feeding their destructive power as they hurtled toward their target.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The attacks landed cleanly, striking the Heavenly Dominator while it remained occupied with the coordinated assault from Caroline and Emperor Dream.
Unfortunately, despite their considerable power, none of them posed a serious threat to the monster, unlike his Devouring Flames’ earlier effects on its elemental armor.
Solfang narrowed his eyes as he observed the additional layer of elemental armor surrounding the Heavenly Dominator. Its surface repeatedly flickered as it resisted the Devouring Flames attempting to consume the elemental mana sustaining it.
Upon closer inspection, he realized that his flames could no longer devour the elemental mana protecting the Heavenly Dominator as easily as before.
It was as though the elemental armor had become considerably denser, making it increasingly difficult for his flames to digest the mana contained within it.
"Tsk!" Solfang clicked his tongue, realizing that his Devouring Flames were gradually losing their effectiveness against the monster. "I guess I have no other choice but to use that technique."
Immediately afterward, Solfang disengaged from the battle and retreated from the main battlefield.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
He concentrated on the massive saber in his hands, gathering his elemental mana and channeling it toward the weapon’s blade.
His Devouring Flames followed suit, surging toward the saber until its blade was completely engulfed in blazing flames radiating tremendous heat and brilliant light.
’Legendary Combat Technique: Secret Art – Chroma Manifestation’
BANG!
A powerful pressure suddenly erupted from Solfang’s body, causing the desert floor beneath his feet to sink.
At the same time, the blade of his saber turned a brilliant shade of red, radiating an intense heat that distorted the air around it.
The surrounding mana was simultaneously drawn toward the weapon and consumed by its Devouring Flames, while the sheer heat radiating from the blade threatened to scorch everything nearby.
Sensing the immense threat gathering behind it, the Heavenly Dominator turned toward Solfang, who had assumed a combat stance and was preparing to unleash his newly activated technique.
BANG!
However, before Solfang could make his move, the Heavenly Dominator suddenly vanished from its position, catching both Emperor Dream and Caroline off guard.
"The big guy has gotten even faster!" Caroline exclaimed as she immediately attempted to pursue it.
WHOOSH!
Unfortunately, the Heavenly Dominator had already appeared directly in front of Solfang. Raising its enormous fist, it unleashed a terrifying punch toward him.
BOOM!
The air exploded under the sheer force of the attack. The tremendous pressure generated by the punch bore down on Solfang, severely restricting his movements before the blow could even reach him.
Upon seeing the enormous fist descending toward him, Solfang gripped his saber with both hands and held it horizontally before his body.
He waited until the attack was almost upon him before suddenly swinging the brilliant red saber.
Shing! Shing! Shing!
His arms moved so rapidly that they seemed to disappear, leaving behind only a series of fiery flashes as he unleashed a relentless barrage of slashes against the incoming stone fist.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
A series of explosions immediately erupted as the two sides collided, each impact producing a tremendous shockwave.
Under the saber’s terrifying heat, the elemental armor covering the Heavenly Dominator’s fist repeatedly melted, gradually weakening its defenses.
The stone armor beneath that elemental layer was also battered by Solfang’s relentless strikes, as his saber continued tearing through the monster’s outer defenses.
However, even after Solfang had destroyed both layers of protection covering the Heavenly Dominator’s fist, the enormous limb continued advancing.
Realizing that he could no longer stop its momentum through sheer offense, Solfang had no choice but to brace himself and use his saber to block the incoming attack.
BOOM!
The tremendous collision sent Solfang flying in the opposite direction.
Twisting his body in midair, Solfang executed several consecutive flips, using them to dissipate the residual force from the impact while simultaneously avoiding the sharp spikes and jagged formations scattered throughout the stone forest.
After regaining control of his momentum, he landed steadily atop one of the stone spikes.
Crouching briefly, he rested his saber over his shoulder and clicked his tongue. "Tsk! This oversized stone monkey sure is tough."
Even after activating both his Blazing Wolf Form and Chroma Manifestation, Solfang could tell that he was still far from being strong enough to challenge this Semi-World Boss on his own.
Meanwhile, shortly after the Heavenly Dominator sent Solfang flying, dozens of blazing embers suddenly materialized around its enormous body.
Flicker! Flicker!
The embers danced around the monster several times before a pair of blazing wheels suddenly emerged from among them, darting toward their target from different directions.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The pair of fiery wheels relentlessly assaulted the Heavenly Dominator, repeatedly crashing against its defenses and producing powerful explosions with every collision.
Caroline was controlling her chakrams from a distance, making full use of the fiery embers scattered across the battlefield to launch attacks from unpredictable angles.
The destructive power behind each collision was no weaker than the attacks Solfang had unleashed during his earlier exchange with the monster boss.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Unfortunately, none of her attacks managed to reach their target.
The Heavenly Dominator had conjured a pair of enormous earthen shields that revolved around its body, protecting it from opposite directions.
The two shields continuously spun and shifted positions, intercepting the blazing wheels whenever they approached the monster.
No matter how quickly Caroline’s chakrams moved or how unpredictable their trajectories became, the rotating earthen shields always managed to intercept them.
Given their enormous size, blocking all angles should not be much of a problem.
"Those movements!" Caroline exclaimed, her eyes widening as she observed how the Heavenly Dominator manipulated the two shields.
"Don’t tell me..." she muttered, her expression gradually turning serious. "It copied the way I control my chakrams?"
No matter how much she wanted to dismiss the possibility, the evidence was right before her eyes.
Her expression immediately darkened as the realization sank in. "This is crazy."
While Caroline was still recovering from the shock, Emperor Dream suddenly appeared behind the Heavenly Dominator, raising his sword over his shoulder.
His blade shone brightly for a brief moment before he unleashed a series of rapid slashes.
Shing! Shing! Shing!
Each swing seemed capable of tearing through space itself, leaving behind a spatial fissure that spread throughout the area before him.
The sword flashes intertwined with one another, forming a vast web of spatial fissures that seemed to trap the Heavenly Dominator within their reach.
Unlike Solfang’s overwhelming destructive power and Caroline’s explosive attacks, Emperor Dream’s swordsmanship possessed a different kind of lethality.
His spatial slashes could bypass conventional defenses, allowing them to cut through obstacles that would otherwise withstand tremendous physical force.
Spatial attacks were renowned for their penetrative capabilities, so it was hardly surprising that Emperor Dream’s slashes could pierce through the pair of earthen shields protecting the Heavenly Dominator.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
The enormous shields were shattered almost instantly as the spatial fissures sliced through them, sending countless fragments of earth scattering in every direction.
However, before the spatial fissures could reach the Heavenly Dominator itself, the monster boss abruptly turned toward Emperor Dream and opened its enormous mouth.
WHOOSH!
A sphere of light rapidly gathered before its mouth, brimming with concentrated earth-elemental mana. The gathering energy made it clear that the monster was preparing to unleash a devastating attack.
Sensing the danger, Emperor Dream immediately retreated without the slightest hesitation.
Swoosh!
The instant he vanished from the Heavenly Dominator’s immediate vicinity, a terrifying beam of light erupted from its mouth, sweeping across everything in its path.
Even the approaching spatial fissures were swallowed by the beam, completely erased as it tore through the battlefield.
Emperor Dream had barely recovered from the monster’s sudden counterattack when he found himself facing another threat.
A barrage of enormous earthen spears suddenly descended from the sky, raining down toward his position.
"Tsk!" Emperor Dream clicked his tongue as he swiftly maneuvered through the barrage, narrowly evading each spear as it crashed toward the ground.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
From the looks of it, the Heavenly Dominator intended to suppress Emperor Dream with its elemental abilities, preventing him from becoming an even greater nuisance.
Unfortunately, Emperor Dream wasn’t the only one capable of posing such a threat.
SWOOSH!
While the Heavenly Dominator was focused on Emperor Dream, it failed to notice a massive magic formation silently materializing beneath its feet.
It only became aware of its presence when it sensed the surrounding temperature rapidly dropping, accompanied by cold mist rising from the desert floor as the sand beneath it began to freeze.
Clank! Clank! Clank!
Before the Heavenly Dominator could react, a swarm of enormous ice chains suddenly erupted from the frozen ground, wrapping themselves around its massive body.
The chains coiled around its limbs and torso, firmly restraining its movements and preventing it from freely maneuvering.
Shin had finally made his move.
Ever since coordinating his attacks with the other three experts, Shin had been exploiting every opening they created, using their attacks as distractions to catch the Heavenly Dominator off guard.
Caroline found his approach utterly shameless, considering how he was practically using the other three as distractions throughout the boss raid.
Even Solfang couldn’t help but find Shin an eyesore because of it.
Unfortunately, neither of them was in a position to complain, especially since Shin’s strategy had proven effective time and time again.
SHING! SHING! SHING!
With the Heavenly Dominator’s movements temporarily restrained, Shin immediately followed up with a series of powerful strikes from his Legendary Sword, [Permafrost].
Each successful strike inflicted between one and two million points of damage, steadily chipping away at the monster’s enormous Health Bar.
Naturally, the other three experts weren’t about to let Shin have all the fun. They immediately resumed their assault, unwilling to be left behind.
They might have considered Shin shameless for using them as tools, but the openings he had created were more than enough to earn their forgiveness for his transgressions.
With all four experts coordinating their attacks, they continued whittling down the Heavenly Dominator’s massive Health Bar.
However, this brief period of dominance lasted only a few more moments.
The Heavenly Dominator’s Health Bar continued to fall until it finally reached the 50% mark—
