Chapter 422

They were instantly locked onto Val, Precht, and Jellal!

Amidst a cloudless sky, the sound of thunder rumbled continuously!

The three instinctively tried to evade with magic, but suddenly realized that no matter how they moved, their bodies were as if fixed within this space, unable to fully escape.

Mirror Flower, Water Moon!

A hypnotic ritual that, after activation, confuses enemies through chaotic reflections of mist and water, causing them to turn on each other.

The condition for hypnosis is for the target to witness the moment of Mirror Flower, Water Moon's activation; anyone who sees it becomes permanently under complete hypnosis.

In that instant when he unleashed his attack, Ranzan had already seized the five senses of the three.

Though they desperately tried to flee beyond the reach of the slash, in truth, all three remained rooted in place, not dodging or evading at all.

"What's going on?!"

The loss of bodily control turned the three pale with shock—and at that very moment, Ranzan's slash came crashing down!

Seeing escape impossible, Val and the others frantically unleashed their magic, forming magical barriers in a desperate attempt to block Ranzan's slash.

Jellal, in particular, immediately unleashed his strongest celestial magic—Star Collapse—to block it!

Boom—!

The slash descended abruptly, and the moment it made contact, the magical barriers shattered with a sound like shattering crystal!

Yet after the barriers broke, the slash did not stop—not even weakening slightly—it slammed straight toward the three.

"What?!"

Seeing this, the three's hearts were filled solely with horror.

Infinite spiritual pressure surged, obscuring their entire field of vision as Ranzan's slash descended.

The next instant, endless air currents erupted and spread outward!

Ranzan's overwhelming power was laid bare at this moment!
