Chapter 1226 Terrifying Metal Corrosion
After a series of coordinated attacks, the entire mine was completely engulfed by a raging, eerie green sea of fire.
The flickering flames licked the rock walls, casting an eerie and sinister glow over the surroundings. The air was thick with the acrid smell of burning magic energy and scorching heat.
Ye Yulong, Ye Qingxin, and Ye Mengyu stood side by side before the churning curtain of fire, their faces reflecting the flickering green flames.
"Did we succeed?" Ye Mengyu tilted her head and asked tentatively.
Ye Qingxin stared at the sea of fire and calmly analyzed, "Logically speaking, fire overcomes metal. Since his stats aren't at their peak, our combined attack can multiply its power several times over, so it should still be able to deal effective damage."
"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! It hurts so much... Pull gently, please... No! Holy crap! Don't pull there!!! No way there—!"
Ye Yang's piercing, pig-like screams echoed from behind, completely clashing with the grim atmosphere before them.
Ye Qingxin, Ye Yulong, and Ye Mengyu: "..."
Just then, deep within the sea of fire, the outline of a figure slowly became clear.
"call……"
The Golden Spirit Priest leisurely strolled out from the raging flames.
All three felt their hearts sink. Ye Yulong immediately gripped his chainsaw sword tighter, his arm muscles taut, his expression grave.
As expected, an eleventh-level priest is not so easy to defeat...
The Golden Spirit Priest emerged from the sea of fire.
Beneath his divine robes, the skin exposed on his arms, face, and neck all had a silvery-white metallic color, as if his entire body were cast from living mercury.
He appeared to be completely unharmed!
Ye Yulong once again used the Deep Blue System to scan his attribute panel.

"!!......"
Ye Yulong was horrified. Unbelievable!
As a metallic elemental life form, his entire body should be composed of metallic elements. Yet, despite facing such a violent fire explosion, he only lost a negligible amount of health!
It only dropped by 0.01e!
"I know what you're thinking." The Golden Spirit Priest remained indifferent: "Unfortunately, my metallic body has a melting point of 10,000 degrees Celsius. Your kind of fire explosions at this temperature cannot cause me any harm."
"and."
He paused, then slowly raised his hand and made a grasping motion in the air.
Ye Yulong immediately felt a strong resistance from the giant sword in his hand, and it began to vibrate uncontrollably!
“You’ve probably misunderstood something,” said the Golden Spirit Priest. “My divine control ability isn’t about magnetism, but rather that all metallic substances in the world are within my control.”
Ye Yulong and Ye Qingxin's expressions changed drastically!
They looked down sharply and saw that a layer of flowing, mercury-like white metal had appeared on the back of their hands that were holding weapons!
This strange substance was spreading rapidly upwards along their skin, and wherever it passed, their limbs quickly lost sensation, becoming cold and numb!
At the same time, the DeepBlue system was also frantically popping up warning alerts!
[Deep Blue System: Warning! Unidentified highly reactive metal detected corroding the host's body! The host has entered a state of severe metal poisoning!]
[Deep Blue System: Warning! Health points are continuously decreasing! Soul power is continuously decreasing! Metal resistance has failed! All four main attributes have decreased by 47%, and base attributes have decreased by 55%...!]
'Oh no...'
Ye Qingxin bit her lower lip tightly, her heart sinking.
Meanwhile, on the other side, signs of being corroded by metallic substances began to appear on Ye Mengyu and her three demonized spirit pets!
"How come I...??" Ye Mengyu stared in horror at the spreading metallic patches on her hands and body. "I definitely didn't have any on me..."
The Golden Spirit Priest sneered disdainfully: "You think that what I just manipulated was only the scrap metal that you can see with your naked eyes?"
Ye Qingxin instantly understood and quickly scanned Ye Mengyu's body with her gaze.
Her clothes, shoulders, arms, and hair were covered with metallic powder that was barely visible to the naked eye!
These dust particles are even finer than grains! In such an intense, dusty battle, these tiny metal shavings are completely undetectable!
Once the metal shavings under his control come into contact with the body, the terrifying metallic toxins will rapidly corrode the entire body like a bone-deep infection...
'What a terrifying ability...'
Ye Qingxin's face was pale.
"Logically speaking, capturing you guys should make you good hostages. With you guys in our hands, Ye Ge should be much more obedient."
The Golden Spirit Priest paused for a moment before continuing, "But right now, the Priest Palace's primary enemy is the Extreme Yin Sect, and we have no time to spare for anything else, nor do I have the leisure to deal with that."
"So, I'll send you on your way."
He raised his hand, and a chilling energy began to gather in his palm. He said coldly, "May the gods forgive your sins after you die."
"!!!"
The white metallic substance on Ye Yulong, Ye Qingxin, Ye Mengyu, and Ye Yang was spreading at an accelerated rate. The metallic substance was like a living thing, suddenly accelerating its spread towards the hearts of the four of them!
......
Another level of the mine.
"call……"
The Earth Spirit Priest breathed a sigh of relief, and the massive array beneath him finally emitted a stable, earthy-yellow divine light. "The array is finally complete."
He formed hand seals, and a deep, solemn chant rang out: "Divine Art—Collapse of Ten Thousand Valleys!"
The magic array beneath him shone brightly, emitting a deep hum!
"Buzzing...!!"
The entire earth trembled slightly.
"The first level, the Eight Desolations Rift, opens..."
He was preparing to activate the first transformation of the formation.
However, at that moment, an unimaginable, pure, and domineering cold divine power suddenly descended like a divine punishment! The radiance of the array beneath him was instantly suppressed by this power and dimmed rapidly!
The earth spirit priest was startled and looked up in astonishment. Then he saw a dark figure rushing towards him.
......
"Aaaaaaaahh ...
The earth spirit priest's extremely shrill scream suddenly tore through the noise of the mine, echoing in every passage!
"Um!?"
Just as the Golden Spirit Priest was killing Ye Yulong and the others, he suddenly heard the Earth Spirit Priest's wail.
He turned his head sharply, and immediately his spiritual power sensed that the Earth Spirit Priest's divine power was rapidly weakening and disappearing!
......
Happy first day of school! ╰(*°▽°*)╯
