Chapter 295

In his hand he held a massive great sword, its blade flickering with mysterious runes.

"The fact that you could make it this far truly surprises me."

The towering figure let out a low voice.

Li An stared fixedly at him.

"Who are you again? Why are you trying to stop us?"

The towering figure let out a laugh.

"I am the chief guardian of the palace, the Divine Envoy! If you wish to explore the palace's secrets, you must first pass my trial."

Yuigahama Yui said indignantly, "What trial? We're not afraid of it at all!"

The Divine Envoy shook his head slightly.

"Don't underestimate my trial! If you fail to pass, you will be trapped here forever."

Hirasawa Shizuka frowned and said, "What exactly do you want us to do?"

The Divine Envoy raised the great sword in his hand, pointing it toward the center of the great hall.

"There is a magic formation there. You must enter the formation and undergo my trial. If you succeed, you may continue forward and explore the palace's secrets; if you fail, you will be trapped here forever."

Li An glanced at the women, then said firmly, "Fine, we accept your trial."

The group walked up to the magic formation at the center of the great hall and stepped inside without hesitation!

The magic formation activated instantly, enveloping them in a blaze of light.

When the light faded, they found themselves in an unfamiliar space. This space was saturated with powerful magic, making them feel oppressed.

"What is this place?" Yuigahama Yui asked.

Yukinoshita Haruno observed her surroundings.

"This seems to be a space specifically designed for trials! We need to handle it carefully."

Suddenly, a powerful magical attack came at them from all directions.

Li An and the others hurriedly dodged, simultaneously casting their own magic to counterattack.

The battle was intense from the very start. The Divine Envoy's trial was far harder to deal with than the Demon God's attacks.

The magical attacks were not only powerful but also endlessly varied, making them impossible to guard against.

Li An fought while pondering a counter-strategy.

He discovered that these magical attacks seemed to follow a certain pattern; if he could find that pattern, he could deal with the trial far more effectively.

"Everyone listen, these magical attacks follow a pattern.

We need to observe carefully, find the pattern, and then counterattack," Li An transmitted through his voice.

The women nodded one after another and began observing the pattern of the magical attacks even more carefully.

After a period of observation, they finally noticed some clues.

The pattern of these magical attacks shifted according to their movements and their use of magic.

If they used a certain type of magic, the next attack would counter that specific magic. If they took a certain action, the attack would change accordingly.

"We need to change our strategy; we can no longer fight in the usual way."

Yukinoshita Haruno said.

Li An nodded.

"Exactly. We need to adapt on the fly, so the Divine Envoy can't predict our actions."

Thus, the group began adopting different fighting styles.

They no longer blindly used powerful magic to attack, but flexibly employed various magics and skills, coordinating cleverly with one another.

In the battle, Li An fully displayed his leadership talents.

Based on each woman's traits and abilities, he reasonably assigned tasks, allowing everyone to play their greatest role.

Yuigahama Yui was in charge of drawing the magical attacks, creating opportunities for the others.

Hirasawa Shizuka, meanwhile, used her tremendous power to launch close-combat attacks.

Yukinoshita Haruno provided magical support from the rear, analyzing the enemy's weak points.

Xiang Xiang Monan was responsible for disrupting the enemy's line of sight, preventing them from accurately striking the group.

After a fierce bout of fighting, they finally gradually seized the rhythm of the battle.

Though the Divine Envoy's magical attacks remained powerful, they could no longer pose much of a threat to them.

"You are quite impressive, to have actually found the pattern of my trial."

The Divine Envoy's voice rang out through the space. "However, this is only the first stage. The trials that follow will be even harder."

As he finished speaking, powerful surges of magic once again rippled through the space..
