Chapter 114 A Battle to the Death (Part 1)
Le Yi couldn't help but feel flustered. This person's strength was unfathomable, and every elemental attack she used came from the Evil Eye.
Although the Evil Eye enhanced his physical abilities and reflexes, engaging in a prolonged battle would inevitably deplete his life force.
She might have her life force drained by the Evil Eye before the battle even ended. And just as Leyi nervously looked around...
Suddenly, a rope flew out from behind her, like a ferocious venomous snake, and coiled around Le Yi's waist. Le Yi sensed something was wrong, but before she could raise her hand to cut the rope...
The rope tightened instantly, and the one holding it at the other end seemed not human, but rather as if the rope were tied to a cannonball.
Then the shell shot out, dragging Leyi deeper into the forest. As she was pulled, the rope was also suddenly flung into the air.
This threw Leyi high into the air. Then the rope tightened again, causing her to plummet downwards, and Leyi crashed heavily to the ground.
It produced a loud bang, instantly sending sand and dust billowing into the air.
As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, Le Yi found himself deep within the forest, surrounded by utter silence. He was currently lying prone in a deep pit.
His face was contorted in pain, his expression unusually grave, his brows furrowed, and his teeth clenched, as if he were enduring immense agony. Finally, he forced himself to endure the excruciating pain...
He then used his hands to prop himself up with great determination, but due to the severity of his injuries, his movements were quite difficult.
After struggling to his feet, he realized that the ground beneath Leyi was completely soaked. It turned out that during the rapid fall...
Leyi sensed the danger and quickly released a large amount of water elemental power to create a soft water cushion, thereby weakening most of the impact.
If he hadn't used his elemental power in time to mitigate the impact, this blow would likely have left him unable to get up.
However, even with the water cushioning his fall, Le Yi was still seriously injured. His body trembled uncontrollably, as if he might collapse at any moment.
As he shakily straightened up, he coughed up a mouthful of blood, which stained his lips and chin. The blow had been exceptionally heavy for him.
Even with the water's cushioning and the enhancements the Evil Eye provided, he still suffered extremely severe injuries. Le Yi was filled with remorse at this moment.
He recalled what Peruvier and Kelly had said earlier, and inwardly blamed himself: "I'm sorry, if I had known this would happen, I should have listened to your advice."
He was filled with remorse, believing he had acted impulsively and failed to heed Peruvier's advice; it was his stubbornness that had led to this consequence.
It was because I underestimated the opponent's strength that I am now in such a desperate situation, but there is no turning back now.
Immediately afterwards, Le Yi swiftly manipulated the water element to form a giant bubble that enveloped his entire body, and his injuries were healing at a visible speed.
But his hair had also changed; several strands had begun to turn white. And with the bursting of the elemental bubbles, all his wounds had healed.
Then he leaped high into the air, jumping directly out of the pit, only then realizing that he was already deep in the forest.
The opponent was lurking in the shadows, ready to kill her at any moment. Le Yi then gave a bitter smile and said, "Ah~, it seems that if I don't eliminate you..."
"There's no way I can leave this forest alive," Le Yi said. The fox-masked man had barely finished speaking when he instantly teleported behind her.
He then suddenly swung his short knife, aiming for the back of Le Yi's head. Le Yi seized the opening and swiftly executed a low back kick.
The sweeping kick successfully struck its target, leaving the fox-masked man suspended in mid-air. Seeing this, Le Yi didn't hesitate...
Manipulating the dual elements of ice and water, in an instant, the collision of ice and water froze the fox-masked man into a giant block of ice.
The fox-masked man was also somewhat surprised, and Le Yi smiled triumphantly, "No matter how much you scheme..."
"Did you ever expect that I could use more than two elements?" Le Yi said, a very contemptuous smile on her face.
At this moment, the fox-masked man, frozen in the ice, actually spoke up, saying, "Hmm, that does surprise me."
Le Yi was somewhat shocked to see that he could still speak even while frozen in ice, but what happened next shocked him even more.
Lightning elemental energy began to flow around the fox-masked man's body, and eventually the ice that had been freezing him began to shatter.
Immediately to Le Yi's astonishment, the massive block of ice before her was blasted into countless fragments, and the enormous impact of the explosion...
This startled Le Yi, causing her to stumble back a few steps. When Le Yi opened her eyes, the fox-masked man had vanished.
Immediately afterwards, Leyi's eyes caught a flash of lightning streaking across her vision.
As the same sound came from behind, Le Yi quickly turned around, but found nothing.
Meanwhile, lightning began to flash continuously around them, as if a person were moving at the speed of light, swift as thunder and lightning.
At this moment, a bad thought also arose in Le Yi's mind. He was now completely certain that the other party was probably a chosen one of the gods.
And just as Le Yi was distracted, the fox-masked man suddenly appeared before her like a thunderbolt.
"In battles between the strong, even a second of distraction can be fatal!" These were the words of the fox-masked man.
He instantly thrust his twin swords, imbued with lightning element, into Le Yi's chest. Le Yi struggled to react afterward.
He quickly conjured a massive ice wall in front of him, but the fox-masked man's attack seemed incredibly powerful, and the ice wall gradually cracked until it shattered.
The moment the ice wall shattered, the fox-masked man also delivered a high kick.
This high kick carried a dense amount of lightning elemental power, roaring like a ferocious dragon as it pounced on Le Yi.
Le Yi keenly sensed the power of the kick and reacted quickly, using his arms to firmly block it.
However, the force of this kick was astonishing, as if it wanted to tear apart everything that was blocking its way.
With a loud bang, Le Yi was kicked away and flew several meters away.
He tumbled through the air, trying to steady himself, but the powerful force was too much for him to handle.
Finally, Le Yi landed heavily on the ground. He struggled to regain his balance, feeling a strong impact coming from his arms.
It almost made him lose his balance. But he endured the pain and exhaustion, struggling to stay upright.
However, the fox-masked man gave Le Yi no chance to breathe. He struck Le Yi like lightning, instantly cleaving through the sky.
Its speed was so fast it was almost impossible to follow. Then, the fox-masked man unleashed several rapid slashes.
Each strike contained a sharp, powerful lightning element, seemingly intent on shredding Le Yi to pieces. Seeing this, Le Yi also activated her evil lightning eye.
They exchanged blows repeatedly with the fox-masked man, each clash generating tremendous sparks, but after all, Le Yi was using the Evil Eye.
Each time he uses his elemental power, he depletes his life force; his hair is turning white strand by strand, and his physical strength is declining.
But the fox-masked man's attack speed didn't slow down at all; on the contrary, it got faster and faster.
As the fox-masked man deflected Leyi's attack with a slash, he instantly crossed his arms and unleashed a cross slash.
Seeing this, Le Yi quickly adjusted her lightning element and unleashed an upward slash, barely managing to block the attack.
Both of them were exerting their strength, neither showing any intention of stopping. Leyi then quickly slid the gym upwards as well.
Suddenly, a long streak of sparks flew out, followed by a horizontal slash aimed directly at the fox-masked man. Upon seeing this, the fox-masked man...
He used a front flip to leap over Le Yi's head, thus dodging the horizontal slash.
Le Yi was startled to find something wrapped around her neck. A rope.
It was actually a rope radiating lightning elemental power! Upon seeing this, Le Yi's eyes widened instantly, and alarm bells rang in her mind.
Instinctively, she suddenly raised her arms in front of her. However, at that moment, the rope tightened instantly like a venomous snake, binding Le Yi's neck.
Fortunately, Le Yi reacted quickly and raised his arm to block it in time; otherwise, the rope would have locked his throat directly.
As the fox-masked man landed after a somersault, he also gripped the rope tightly, a smug smile on his face.
Le Yi immediately felt a powerful force attacking her, which she was completely unable to resist. Then, the fox-masked man unleashed a whirlwind attack.
Le Yi slammed herself against the surrounding tree trunks repeatedly, producing dull thuds.
After a fierce attack, the fox-masked man gathered his strength briefly, then suddenly hurled the rope in his hand into the sky.
As before, Leyi was once again violently thrown high into the air. In that instant, time seemed to slow down.
Le Yi coughed up a mouthful of blood in mid-air, her body tracing an arc through the air.
The fox-masked man tightened his grip on the rope again, forcefully pulling Le Yi down from the air, slamming her heavily to the ground with a dull thud.
