Chapter 394: Celestial Balance Array Destroyed

As Elder Xianthe unleashes his powerful Fireheart Invocation against the fiery phoenix, the attack dissipates harmlessly into the creature's blazing body, like water vanishing into a bucket. The phoenix, undamaged, continues its dance of flames, seemingly mocking the efforts of the elder.

Elder Xianthe, his brow furrowed in concentration, realizes that brute force alone will not subdue this elemental construct. He steps back, reassessing his approach, his mind racing through his extensive knowledge of arrays and their intricacies.

"Every array has a weakness," he mutters under his breath, his eyes never leaving the swirling flames of the phoenix. He recalls that one of the teachers with him specializes in array formations, a critical piece of knowledge in this moment of need.
