Chapter 391 - Smokescreen Battle
In this smokescreen, Tiana ordered her subordinates to move towards specific positions.
Each position would allow them to keep an eye on a particular direction. They had to launch their techniques in the respective directions.
Many warriors would be targeted by their techniques. The primary reason was that the opponent had no idea they were being targeted.
In this thick fog, only Tiana and her subordinates could see clearly. They calmly targeted their opponents and launched their techniques.
This was their first technique, so they had plenty of time to charge their attack. Naturally, they all synced their timing so that all their opponents would be caught off-guard.
However, no matter how much time they took to charge their attack, they couldn't kill all their opponents.
Most of their powerful warriors remained unharmed by this attack. They immediately began to charge up their attacks while these women were in a state of cooldown.
Since they had just launched a strong attack, their meridians were still returning to their normal state before they could gather Ardor and prepare another attack.
All these warriors shot their attacks from the direction they had seen those attacks from their opponents emerged.
Multiple rocks, fireballs, and even lightning attacks were thrown towards the women.
However, before these attacks could strike these women, strong Ice Walls suddenly rose ahead of them and blocked them.
The one who conjured these Ice Walls was none other than Tiana.
In her normal state, she would have never been able to create so many Ice Walls and blocked so many strong attacks simultaneously.
Each side of her Ice Wall was struck by at least 4 attacks. Yet, it showed no signs of breaking.
This signified that it could take on at least 3 more attacks before reaching its limit. This indicated that this Ice Wall contained an impressive amount of Ardor.
In Tiana's normal state, she could have never managed to conjure an Ice Wall so powerful which had such an intense Ardor flowing in it.
However, she was currently in her strongest state. She utilized the Sacred Ice Sovereign Manifestation Technique to maximize her power and make her attacks stronger.
Due to using the Sacred Ice Sovereign Manifestation Technique, her attacks contained a hint of laws of Absolute Ice.
This was why it was extremely robust and powerful. Just pure Ardor would have never bolstered it to this level.
Azaroth observed everything that occurred on the ground and nodded with a satisfied look on his face.
'Tiana thought of a good plan. She plans to save her subordinates' stamina at the expenditure of her own.'
'If her subordinates use the Sacred Ice Sovereign Manifestation Technique, they might kill more of their opponents, but they would be utterly helpless once their stamina is exhausted.'
'However, using this tactic, these women can first reduce the number of their opponents by fighting and launching techniques in their normal state.'
'The fog in their surroundings doesn't just blind the enemy. It also allows them to recover and gather their energy quickly. Thus, the strain on their body in their normal state won't be too great. They can easily endure it.'
'Nearly all these women had endured great pain in the last few days. The body pain they experienced now wasn't even worth mentioning.'
'While they are launching their attacks, Tiana can take some breaths of relief. She can also use that time to ingest those pellets that would allow her to ignore the pain and keep fighting.'
Tiana was ingesting a particular drug that had many side effects. Her body's immunity would weaken, and she would experience unreal pain after a few hours.
She would experience the sensation of her bones breaking into tiny fragments. This would actually occur, and Azaroth planned to stay with her at that moment.
He would give her another pellet that would greatly boost her healing speed.
Although Azaroth preferred to let her heal naturally, Tiana didn't have that sort of time.
She had to recover quickly to fight against the next group. This wasn't the last group sent by the Night Mountain Sect.
Next time, the elders would arrive. That would make their fights much more challenging.
After nearly 20 or so minutes, Tiana was extremely exhausted. She felt as if the world around her was spinning. Before long, she collapsed on the ground.
However, just as she collapsed on the ground, she spoke out to her subordinates, "Fight with your real strength. Use the Sacred Ice Sovereign Manifestation Technique."
Tiana's subordinates were extremely busy. They were completely concentrating on their opponents.
They knew that a lapse in their concentration would mean their death. And a flaw would occur in their formation. More deaths would occur once this flaw occurs, and the entire formation would collapse.
The Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect would face disastrous losses. They couldn't afford even a single death at this point. Thus, each one had a great responsibility on their head.
Upon receiving Tiana's order, her subordinates immediately terminated any of the techniques they planned to launch.
Even the opponents had come to understand the timings of their attacks. They would raise defenses around them before attacking Tiana's subordinates. In this manner, they had managed to preserve their numbers.
They had no idea that these women would now be on the all-out offensive. These women had all utilized the Sacred Ice Sovereign Manifestation Technique and launched towards their opponents.
Their opponents didn't expect that the enemy would charge at them. They were essentially blind in this fog. And thus, no one could react in time.
Since they couldn't react in time, many died before they realized anything wrong.
Soon, the leader of the Night Mountain Sect sensed something wrong. He shouted out to his subordinates, "They are charging forwards. Stay on your toes and use your Armor to block their first attack and then launch a counterattack!"
This was a great strategy that the leader came up with in a hurry. However, this disclosed his location, and he was forced to flee as many Ice Shards were thrown at him.
The Night Mountain Sect's team's leader thought the strategy was quite good in theory, but practically, it didn't work.
This was because he had no idea how strong these women were after utilizing the Sacred Ice Sovereign Manifestation Technique.
No matter how seriously these warriors fought these women, they would die on the first or the second attack.
Around this moment, Tiana had ingested a pellet that allowed her to stand up and fight against these opponents. She dashed towards the opponents' leader's position, who was rushing to assist his subordinates.
Before the opponents' leader could assist his comrades, Tiana caught up to him. Without any warning, she created a gigantic Ice Sword in her hand and thrust it towards him.
The opponents' leader threw out a strong punch that collided with that Ice Sword. The Ice Sword shattered after a couple of seconds while the opponents' leader had a small cut on his hand.
This cut didn't hurt much, but it told that man that this woman was quite powerful. He couldn't take her lightly.
Meanwhile, Tiana was slightly surprised that he had managed to shatter her Ice Sword with a single punch.
She hadn't sensed the presence of any elements. This meant that his raw strength was bolstered with his normal Ardor.
It was certainly rare to meet someone with such great strength.
She began to recite an ancient mantra in low whispers. The fog was drawn to Tiana and built a giant, gorgeous face over her body. This face was made of pure cloudy substance, and it looked just like Tiana.
When the individuals around her saw it, they felt as if a fairy had stepped onto the ground, and they needed to kowtow and pay their respects to her.
