Supreme Magus novel Chapter 2040

Chapter 2040 Before the Storm (Part 2)

The Thunderborne would have preferred to burn both golems and Demons with a breath of Origin Flames but with Solus up again, she couldn't risk to waste her strength.

She conjured two tier five spells, Frozen Wind and Shattered Earth. The former took the form of several tornadoes filled with razor-sharp ice crystals while the latter caused the ground to erupt into pillars of lava, one for each enemy.

'Now!' Locrias said via the invisible mind link that they shared through the chains.

Four of their remaining eyes lit up in unison as they activated Domination and combined their willpower to wrest control of her spells and turn them against Leari.

Solus and Lith had to be careful when using Domination. It was a skill known to few bloodlines that were jealous of its secret and wouldn't hesitate to kill those who compromised it.

On top of that, Thrud's generals couldn't be killed as long as the Golden Griffon existed. There was no way to shut their mouth and the risk that after experiencing its effects many times they might learn it. _{fгeewebnovёl.com}

The Demons, however, had no such problem.

Lith had spread the lie that it was a bloodline ability unique to the souls who answered his call and since he belonged to a newborn species, no one knew what the Demons could actually do.

While the Thunderborne was forced to waste a Spirit Barrier to defend against her own magic, the ex-soldiers of the Kingdom had finished their chant.

They had conjured the same tier four Light Mastery spell, Diamond Cutter.

It generated a hard-light construct shaped like a drill that incorporated the hardest minerals in the ground to combine the speed of a light beam with the hardness of the earth element.

The spells formed a triangular formation that attacked Leari from the front and the sides, leaving her no way out. The Divine Beast roared in annoyance as she was forced to keep her Spirit Barrier on and consume even more mana.

'That's why Light Mastery is so annoying.' She thought. 'Regular-sized spells and weapons are mosquito bites for those like me but the size of a hard-light construct can be adjusted at will.'

At the same time, Solus kept her breathing technique active and focused on the light elemental gem of the Sage Staff to draw in the abundant light element of the morning sun.

Once the energy reached a concentration that she could barely control, Solus converted it into her tier three Light Mastery spell, Sunburst. An incandescent pillar of light the size of a train struck the barrier in the same point of the first drill construct.

'What the?' Life Vision showed Leari that the two spells had the same energy signature so instead of clashing, they ignored each other.

Her shock only grew when Sunburst started to spin faster and faster, doubling the pressure that the drill applied to the barrier. Then, the energy from Sunburst seeped inside Diamond Cutter until the two spells become one.

The speed and hardness of the drill increased again, piercing through the barrier before the Thunderborne could recover from the surprise. The spell stabbed her massive chest while spinning at high speed, sending blood and feathers flying around.

With the Spirit Barrier weakened, the other two Diamond Cutter crushed through it, stabbing the Thunderborne's wings and pinning her into place. Darkness fusion allowed her to feel no pain, but if the main drill hit her heart she would have died.
