Chapter 2221: Fu Xi
Chapter 2221: Fu Xi
As soon as Grand Mistress Nu Wa welcomed them, the doors made of coral suddenly started to open slowly. The door was made of a number of different corals that created a web. With each coral slowly retreating back into the sands, the beauty of the gate could now be seen as there was an etched picture on it. The etched picture is none other than two Ryujin entangled together and using their powers to create rain.
As soon as all of the corals vanished, the gates opened with a powerful force. As soon as the gates opened, rows of statues that are covered in corals could be seen. These statues looked as if they would come alive and attack all of them as their menacing appearance can intimidate anyone. All of them actually made a battle stance except for Grand Mistress Nu Wa.
"All of you are quite cute. Follow me closely." Grand Mistress Nu Wa stated as she walked in front of them like a queen.
"I feel like they would hurt us." Levin Cloud stated as he felt the statues gazing at them. "It is probably the magic embedded in them. They will move if you suddenly become hostile." Adrian stated as he can feel mana circulating in the statues.
"I guess it feels similar to the ice statues in Queen Elona's castle then." Frey added as she knows of defensive measures like that.
As soon as Adrian and Frey told them those facts, Levin Cloud and Peridot could be seen inching closer to the Grand Mistress Nu Wa. They did not want to be out of her sphere of protection should those statues do move. It looks like they were made incredibly durable to the point that they might be able to contend with them easily. One or two would be easy but there were more than a hundred of these statues.
All of them entered the main palace and it was completely empty of life. There were numerous treasures contained in the halls but there was no other living being roaming about. They soon entered the throne room where a majestic lotus structure could be seen. The majestic lotus structure could be seen holding or encasing a very handsome man.
"Fu Xi!" Grand Mistress Nu Wa stated as she rushed towards the lotus structure only to be repelled.
"Are you alright?!" All of them exclaimed as they helped Grand Mistress Nu Wa up.
"I am fine. I was just to excited to see him but to think there was still one more defensive mechanism." Grand Mistress Nu Wa stated as the defense mechanism that activated suddenly moved.
The lotus structure that was encasing Fu Xi suddenly awakened and turned into a sea horse dragon statue. This sea horse dragon statue has Fu Xi sleeping on its belly as if it was a pregnant sea horse protecting its belly. Some petals of the lotus structure also floated around the sea horse dragon statue to serve as shields that can protect it from ranged attacks.
"I always knew that this would not be easy." Levin Cloud stated as he tried casting curses to at least lower the stats or defense of the enemy, but it did not take effect.
[The target cannot be affected by the curse as it is a non-living being.]
"Brute force it is then." Adrian stated as he partially summoned his soulbounds.
Sirius's magic circle popped out and a large dark claw suddenly swiped towards the sea horse dragon statue. Sirius' magic circle vanished after this but the damage he dealt to the enemy was substantial. The corals that make up the statue could be seen chipped and tainted with the darkness attribute.
Kanlaon did not show up completely as he just peered his head out of the magic circle and blasted the sea horse dragon statue with his dragon breath. The dragon breath was not at full power because he was summoned in short notice. The dragon breath that should still be devastating but the sea horse dragon statue used the floating petals around it to create a shield. This petal shield managed to tank the dragon breath, but it was pushed back.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Saena did not come out of the magic circle as well, but she released a breeze that enhanced the stats of all of them. It would have healed them as well, but they were not injured. Charon only took out his hand as chains came out of the ground and bound the sea horse statue. The chains proved effective as the sea horse dragon statue could not move for a moment.
With the sea horse dragon statue chained momentarily, Dodu released a tentacle and used it as a way to douse the statue with its body fluid. The defenses of the sea horse dragon statue suddenly started to decrease despite it not being a living entity. Kimat released a blast of lightning towards the sea horse dragon statue which charred some of its white coral.
Wisteria's magic circle released a flurry of crystal leaves that produced cuts that aided in destroying the thing that kept Fu Xi locked inside of the sea horse dragon statue. Kenos did not come out of the magi circle as well, but it created small portals that took away the petals that served as the shields of the sea horse dragon statue. Without shields that protected it from ranged attacks, the sea horse dragon statue crumbled easily under the attacks of all of them.
"That was surprisingly easy." Levin Cloud commented as the parts of the sea horse dragon statue are now destroyed. What remains is the box that contained the sleeping Fu Xi. "Of course, it will be easy. We have Grand Mistress Nu Wa with us. She was the one that destroyed most of the statue parts." Peridot stated as they did not need to do much.
All of them just had to pin the sea horse dragon statue once Adrian was done attacking it with his soulbounds. The sea horse dragon statue was not a monster so it can be easily destroyed as long as one knows its weaknesses.
