Chapter 2808 — To Go or Not to Go
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Following the flame's trajectory, its target was a human cultivator—and to Wei Zhao's astonishment, that human cultivator was a young girl! With a shapely, exquisite figure and a pale yellow form-fitting short dress, she left Wei Zhao utterly dumbfounded. He had never imagined that the one fighting this dinosaur would be a female cultivator!
He watched as the girl in yellow rapidly formed hand seals, invoking some martial technique he could not identify, when all at once a brilliant light shot from her hands like a column of water, striking toward the ball of flame.
So she truly was an expert at the peak of the late Heaven rank. Wei Zhao was aghast, and he strove to recall whether, among those who had come to join the trial, there was any expert of such prowess.
But the Xuandan Sect's trial was different from the Ice Palace's. At registration, Kang Jingming had not checked each applicant's strength one by one, nor had he disclosed the applicants' identities and origins, so among the trial participants, apart from those already acquainted, few knew much about the others.
Wei Zhao was the same. Earlier he had been preoccupied with chatting with Feng Shihua, Li Ciba, Ge Xian, Zhao Qilei, Yang Qiqi, and the others, and had not observed the rest, so in his memory he truly had no impression of this girl.
"Boom—" A dull thunderous crash exploded beside Wei Zhao's ear once more. Because it was so close, the sound seemed to pass into his very body, making both his legs tremble!
Too powerful! He saw the ball of flame and the column of water collide, producing an enormous clash of energy—and that was what had given rise to the thunderous roar.
"Awooo—" The dinosaur roared again, and without pause spat another enormous orb of energy from its mouth—only this orb was no longer flame, but a ball of water!
This left Wei Zhao utterly astounded. Just what element was this spirit beast? A moment ago it spat fire, and now it spat water—was it a fire-type or a water-type?
Yet if Wei Zhao was astounded at that moment, the next moment left him utterly confounded, for the girl—the very girl who had just unleashed a water-column technique—actually pointed her right hand at the water orb, and a ball of fire burst forth from her fingertip...
"Boom—" The dull thunderous crash rang out once more, but this time Wei Zhao did not tremble, for he was already utterly confounded. The spirit beast's attribute had left him baffled, and the girl's attribute was driving him to distraction.
The water orb and the fire orb collided once more, erupting in a burst of enormous energy before slowly dissipating into nothing.
Though man and beast appeared evenly matched, the girl was secretly crying out in distress! Unleashing these few techniques in succession had already consumed most of the stamina in her body. Formidable as human cultivators were, compared with spirit beasts their weaknesses were plain—many spirit beasts possessed immense bulk, and the stamina and true qi within their bodies far exceeded a human cultivator's.
