Seven Deadly Sins System-Chapter 225 : Phantom(2)
However, the four phantoms didn't give Chu Wuyao much time to think.
The moment after these phantoms stepped out of the golden palace, their aura surged as they controlled their Visions.
A massive creature made out of earth appeared behind Xiong Qi, while an equally large creature that seemed to be made out of water appeared behind Xu Lan.
Similar figures appeared behind the other two phantoms, one made out of fire and the other made out of wind.
"Boom!"
The four giant creatures opened their mouths at the same time and an attack flew out, an attack that matched the element in their respective bodies.
As these attacks were mid-air, something strange happened, and fire, water, wind, and earth began blending together and fusing.
In most cases, such rush fusion would have completely invalidated the four attacks, since it was a fusion of opposite elements, but now, not only did the attack not get neutralized, but it quickly got stronger and stronger.
If before, Xiong Qi's and Xu Lan's respective attacks could only threaten Aspect Stage cultivators, then this fused attack had now reached the threshold of a Creation Stage cultivator's attacks.
Seeing the attack coming toward her, a look of realization flashed on Chu Wuyao's face and she found an answer to the question she had always had before.
All this time, Chu Wuyao had been wondering why Wu Feng chose to take in these four people as his followers, rather than choosing any of the stronger ordinary core disciples.
After all, among the many disciples of the Core Area, there were quite a few who were stronger than Xu Lan and Xiong Qi.
But now that she faced their attack, Chu Wuyao finally understood.
"The Visions of these guys are based on earth, fire, water, and wind, which some consider to be the four major elements of the world."
"Because of this, although their individual power is not anything special, once they work together and fight as a team, they can exert 200% of their combat power."
This was even more apparent now that these four people had become phantoms that were controlled by the same person.
"Sure enough, you can't be too arrogant if you want to survive."
"Even a true disciple has such a trump card, let alone other, more powerful cultivators.", Chu Wuyao thought secretly, but on the surface, her expression didn't show any change.
Facing the attack of the four phantoms, which would make even Creation Stage cultivators flinch, she didn't choose to back down nor dodge but instead chose to face it head-on.
Under her control, her body began transforming, as she activated her True Form.
Her height got higher and higher and a majestic golden armor engraved with many intricate patterns formed on her torso, while her nails grew, making her hands resemble the claws of a beast.
"Roar!"
A low-pitched growl came as she subconsciously opened her mouth, revealing a long tongue and countless razor-sharp teeth.
Her claw-like hand clutched the Dragon Slaying Sword tightly before she swung it forward, pouring all her strength into it.
Her swordsmanship looked ordinary and didn't seem anything special, but a sharp glow flashed on the edge of the Dragon Slaying Sword that made the onlookers feel as if they were stabbed by countless invisible needles.
In the Cultivation World, Dao Weapons were equal to Supernatural Realm cultivators, and as such, they each represented a concept, just like the Authorities and Visions of cultivators.
If Chu Wuyao's first Dao Weapon, the Evil Refining Pagoda represented the concepts of "suppression", "imprisonment", and "refining", then the Dragon Slaying Sword represented the concept of "sharpness".
Although the Dragon Slaying Sword represented fewer concepts than the Evil Refining Pagoda and didn't have as many functions, it was exactly because of this that its attack power was extremely powerful, surpassing Dao Weapons of the same rank.
In the gaming terms of Chu Wuyao's previous life, the Dragon Slaying Sword had put all its points into attacking power and had completely ignored its defense and other auxiliary abilities.
"Swoosh!"
The sword and the fused attacks of the four phantoms met in the air, and the moment the two collided, the sword's aura surged.
The sharp light on its edge became even more apparent, and the next second, the incoming attack was divided into two pieces, as if the sword had cut its very essence.
After it neutralized their attack, the Dragon Slaying Sword didn't stop there but continued unabated.
"Bang!"
The Dragon Slaying Sword fell on Xiong Qi's Vision, and a split second later, a familiar scene appeared.
The Earth Spirit, the Vision that its owner had always been proud of, disintegrated, turning into tiny pieces of dust.
The destruction of his Vision caused Xiong Qi to suffer backlash and his aura fluctuated violently, making it seem like a candle that was about to go out.
The next moment, Xiong Qi's phantom became a little illusory, before it turned into a dazzling light and returned to the golden palace.
Seeing one of her opponents "dying", Chu Wuyao didn't pause at all, ready to take advantage of this opportunity.
Before, Xiong Qi, Xu Lan, and the other two phantoms worked together and were still unable to defend against her attack, much less now that the strongest of them had died and their formation had been destroyed.
"Bang! Boom!"

Chu Wuyao swung the Dragon Slaying Sword repeatedly as if she had gone crazy, but her attacks landed accurately on the Visions of the three phantoms in front of her, suppressing them.
Quickly, more and more injuries accumulated in the Visions, as a sharp energy drilled into their bodies and raged inside of them.
Before long, this energy engulfed everything about them, destroying the Visions and forcing the phantoms back into the golden palace.
From start to finish, it only took Chu Wuyao a few seconds to deal with all the phantoms, displaying what it meant to suppress your opponents with absolute power.
Unfortunately, before she could be happy, her intuition frantically warned her of danger.
