Chapter 380

The anti-air energy field that covered the entire battle field was quite potent and it affected not only the Fog Dwellers and Depth Dwellers - the two headed corporeal monster tried to escape, but not only was its turn slowed, but also its speed when it tried to flee. Its tail attack did indeed deliver a devastating blow against this particular mountaintop as well as the defensive forces standing on it. But as it turned out, this attack also did quite a lot of damage to its fellow creatures of the gaps, while not completely annihilating all of the Fog Dwellers' defensive forces.

The other half of the Fog Dwellers whose positions were not covered in the monster's tail attack struck back right away with their arrows, crossbow bolts and spinning blades when the aftershock of the tail attack subsided.

The defensive magical tower was still standing even though it sustained the strikes and blasts of countless bone spikes and energy shards from the broken energy shield, and it blast out several energy bolts that turned into sharp and high density energy construct arrows in the middle of its trajectory, just in time to penetrate the skin, flesh and bones of the monster.

Light purple blood and some kind of light cyan bodily liquid jetted into the air from the deep wounds left by the physical and energy construct attacks. There were many creatures of the gaps around it while it was struck, and in turn were caught in the rain of its blood and bodily liquid. These creatures of the gaps screamed and squirmed at the contact of the droplets, as if they were like high concentration corrosive acid or poison to them; their body parts touched by the droplets started dissolving and melting, which caused their fellow creatures to flee and scatter in fear.

Fubei Li had a brief moment of opportunity while assisting Dave with his process of performing some emergency treatment of Perketta, as he extended his right hand in the air and conjured a gush of strong wind to carry a small droplet of the two-headed monster's blood to him. He then held the droplet of blood with a piece of curved rock from the mountain, and slowly and carefully rubbed it on his chest, where the pale green mark was.

Just like Fubei Li expected, the droplet of blood eroded the pale green mark of curse placed on Fubei Li's chest, bit by bit, and eventually completely washed it away. The blood also left some kind of rash on his chest, but it would be the lesser of his worries for now.

"Okay, you stopped losing your power." Dave finally finished his spell: "How's your core? Is it damaged?"

"Fog Dwellers don't have cores." Perketta crawled up from the ground and laid her back on a piece of rock behind the defensive tower: "We have more similarities to you than to elementals."

"Okay. I didn't know that, I'm sorry." Dave shook his head: "Let's head back, you are in no condition to fight. "

"No, I must." Perketta concentrated her power, and some other parts of her body started shifting and flowing to the position of her lost leg, and her missing leg was thus regrown: "I am the first deputy of Lord Tamura, I can't back off from a fight!"

"You military officials and your honors." Fubei Li sighed and drank up all the wine from the clay jar: "Why the hell is no one shutting the portal down yet?!"

"We are short on defensive towers and arrays." Perketta launched her six bows again and launched a volley against the incoming creatures, now that the two headed monster was completely debilitated and had fallen to the base of the mountain.

Dave sighed and joined Perketta in her fight with Fubei Li and Xyankor. Without the giant two headed pale monster blocking the view, Fubei Li was able to see more of the creatures coming their way.

"We have to fall back! We have to fall back!" another voice message was delivered to this mountain top, from another battle field.

Another mountain top fell to its ruin, but not from other two headed monsters, but from two creatures that looked like ancient fish with legs and claws whose bodies were made of dark blue energy.

Fubei Li cut his fingers and ripped his blood on a wooden coin, then he chanted a short spell, and tossed the wooden coin into the air. His blood slowly covered one side of the coin, while giving off a dim orange and golden shine. A thin layer of energy was then coated on the wooden coin, and the coin shot through the air like a self guiding missile.

Many creatures of the gaps moved away from the flying coin, in fear that it would be another attack aiming at their lives; some other creatures, on the other hand, tried to swallow the coin in whole as if they smelled something delicious from it. The coin changed its trajectory in the air, accurately and effectively evading all of the creatures in its path and headed straight towards the center of the vortex, from which all of the creatures came.

Fubei Li's eyes were glowing in orange and golden light as the coin traveled through the vast space in between, and his hands and fingers were raised in the air like they were forming some kind of hand seal - this was because he was controlling the flying coin, helping it make predictive maneuvers and transfusing his Xuanli over through his blood.

The closer the coin got to the center of the vortex and thus the portal, the more resistance it faced and thus more energy needed to be transfused. When it was just meters away from the center, Fubei Li was already biting his teeth, and blood started seeping from the corner of his mouth.

"Just fucking GO!" Fubei Li roared and pushed with his full force, the wooden coin cracked and shattered; the splinters flew everywhere, and were immediately crushed by the energy fields around into fine dust.

Only the centerpiece of the coin made it forward and past the center of the vortex, which was a portal filled with unstable and chaotic energy fields and flows. Before the centerpiece was completely destroyed, it managed to give out a final flash of bright orange and golden light, and a small piece of information was sent back to Fubei Li.

On the other side of the portal, it was not an empty space, nor was it one that was filled with turbulent energy streams and unstable energy fields like Fubei Li was expecting. It was another realm, one that was stable, and growing and most important of all, young.
