As the Corrosive Mud Downpour was injuring Chu Ci, the damage she sustained was transferred to the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull through the red chain.
The green chain directed vitality from the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull to Chu Ci.
The other people present were not aware, but Lin Yuan knew that this was the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull’s ability to Sacrifice.
When Lin Yuan had used all his savings to buy the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull, it was the best choice he could have made at that moment.
Lady Luck was also shining down on them as it turned out to be the best choice for Chu Ci.
Although the Elite/Epic Sharp Rock Bull did not appear impressive, and Lin Yuan could easily strengthen and evolve it now, Sacrifice made Lin Yuan feel that he had hit the jackpot when he found the Sharp Rock Bull.
Luckily, small places like the Xia Region, where no Creation Master went to the spirit-lifeform marketplace, did not recognize such a gem.
When the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull’s quality was low, the effects of Sacrifice were not evident.
However, its powers had reached Silver V/Fantasy II, so Sacrifice’s effects would finally start to show.
When Chu Ci dismissed the Golden Jadeite Shield in the midst of the Corrosive Mud Downpour, the commentating Huo Zeyuan immediately turned to look at the middle-aged man next to him.
The middle-aged man met Huo Zeyuan’s gaze and circulated his spiritual energy, and a pink clamshell appeared in his palm.
The pink clamshell opened and started to spit out pink bubbles.
It looked remarkably magical.
When the middle-aged man summoned the pink clamshell, Liu Jie returned to his seat in the audience.
Although the ongoing match was just a challenge, any clashing of feys could not be taken lightly.
In a real fight, spirit qi professionals would use fey attacks in simpler ways to win the fight, but real fights were always extremely fierce.
The middle-aged man beside Huo Zeyuan was a staff member of the Guild Alliance that was tasked to protect the spirit qi professionals and feys that were currently fighting in the arena.
Every staff member was A-rank. The feys they contracted were the standard Plum Rain Wall Clam prepared by the Guild Alliance.
The Plum Rain Wall Clam was small and cute. The bubbles it spat out also had a magical feeling.
It could easily bring out the hidden innocent side of an 80-year old man.
However, the Plum Rain Wall Clam was a powerful safety net that the Guild Alliance had put in place for the competing experts.
The Plum Rain Wall Clam’s shell was exceedingly strong and could handle both physical and elemental spiritual damage.
Meanwhile, inside the clam was a rain of plum flowers.
The rain of plum flowers had a strong agitation ability. Although it could not bring dead feys back to life, it could sustain feys that were hanging onto life by a thread.
This allowed the fey to hang on till healing-type spirit qi professionals and Creation Masters could attend to it.
Every time the Plum Rain Wall Clam was used, it meant that a fey or spirit qi professional had experienced a deathly blow.
In a real fight, the victor could not be decided based on the death of one fey.
It was standard procedure for the middle-aged man to use the Plum Rain Wall Clam to interrupt the match.
The middle-aged man would judge the situation in the arena and commence balancing out the situation if necessary. He would not interfere unless it was absolutely necessary.
When the middle-aged man saw the green and red chain that linked Chu Ci and the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull, he stopped paying attention to Chu Ci.
Instead, his sharp gaze turned toward the Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard, which had just used Blood Burning Strike.
As a Guild Alliance staff member, this was not the first time that the middle-aged man had seen Chen Hongfeng’s Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard use Blood Burning Strike.
The Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard’s attack would set fire to the water-elemental energy and blood in its body. Once it was used, the Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard would enter a near-death state.
The attack encompassed all the energy in the Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard.
The middle-aged man injected spiritual power into the Plum Rain Wall Clam and was prepared to save the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull’s life when the Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard beat it to a bloody mess.
The middle-aged man was already ready to step in because the Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard would not be able to contribute to the fight after using Blood Burning Strike.
It would become nothing more than a living target.
The fact that Chu Ci applied the double defense of both the Yellow Jadeite Golden Butterfly and the Burning Sunflower Twins on the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull meant that she wanted the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull to receive the attack.
Hence, it was difficult for the middle-aged man to balance the situation.
As a king-class expert, when the middle-aged man saw Chu Ci’s combination of feys, he knew that she had an extremely impressive background.
Thus, the middle-aged man did not want the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull to run into any problems because of his carelessness.
Otherwise, the consequences would definitely be dire.
When the Blood Burning Strike struck the Heat Wave Conduction, the Heat Wave Conduction was immediately broken.
The broken Heat Wave Conduction rapidly bound itself around the Blood Burning Strike.
However, the Heat Wave Conduction was only able to slightly deter the Blood Burning Strike.
Chu Ci’s eyes narrowed, and she cried out, “Yellow Jadeite Golden Butterfly, use the exclusive skill Counterattack Tremor! Obsidian Iron Wild Bull use Pain Absorption! Burning Sunflower Twins, use Caring Twins to inject all the vitality into the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull!”
After Chu Ci handed out her orders to the three feys, the Yellow Jadeite Golden Butterfly, Obsidian Iron Wild Bull, and the Burning Sunflower Twins immediately used their exclusive skills.
The Blood Burning Strike’s pillar of energy pierced through the Golden Jadeite Shield.
The moment that the Golden Jadeite Shield cracked, it looked like a large clock due to the Counterattack Tremor.
It directed a portion of the energy damage back at the Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard.
The Yellow Jadeite Golden Butterfly’s Counterattack Tremor effects should not be strong because it was only Bronze/Fantasy.
However, the Blood Burning Strike was extremely powerful.
As such, even a portion of its power was so overwhelming that it caused a ripple in the air.
The Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard had feebly collapsed to the ground after using Blood Burning Strike.
After being struck by the attack, the Smooth-Toothed Elephant Lizard’s eyes, nose, and mouth were flowing with dark red blood.
