Chapter 003: Dissolution

Two forbidden magic spells and one forbidden archery technique! Three forbidden-level moves were used simultaneously against the dwarf army surrounding Moses and the archers.

Naixiu’s Meteor Fire Rain covered a vast area! Moreover, the location she chose to unleash it from was perfectly strategic!

Du Fan cast a wind-based forbidden magic spell called Dragon Hurricane. This spell had one characteristic: the number of wind dragons summoned varied depending on the user’s cultivation level, with mana amount also being a key factor. Relying on the massive wind mana stored in his Sacred Radiance Staff and his own powerful cultivation, Du Fan summoned nine wind dragons at once! The Dragon Hurricane formed by those nine dragons covered an extremely wide area!

As a result, many dwarf warriors crowded together in an attempt to avoid the Dragon Hurricane! Naixiu targeted those crowded dwarf warriors with her Meteor Fire Rain!

Compared to human armies, the discipline of the dwarf army was quite lax. With nine Dragon Hurricanes at once, chaos quickly ensued!

This dire situation meant that when Naixiu’s Meteor Fire Rain struck, many soldiers had nowhere to hide! Everyone was packed tightly around them, leaving no room to move even a step!

On the ground, the Dragon Hurricanes mercilessly claimed the lives of dwarf warriors, while from the sky, Meteor Fire Rain continued to fall! Naturally, these dwarf soldiers thought of retreating to the foot of the mountains!

A human army with strict discipline would never suffer such chaos, but these dwarves rarely had the discipline of human armies in battle. Dwarf warriors usually did not train together. In fact, they were primarily laborers in peacetime and only gathered together during wars, making it impossible to establish strict military discipline due to the lack of training!

This situation stemmed from deep historical reasons. Dwarves were born with divine power and natural resistance to magic. As a result, they developed an attitude believing that they could defeat several humans alone without training. Over time, these dwarf warriors largely stopped participating in military training.

Initially, the Dwarf King had made every effort to establish the Black Panther Knight Order precisely to break free from such traditions.

The Black Panther Knights, dedicated full-time to their duties, formed a professional dwarf knight force! Back then, and even now, many dwarves had strong objections to the Dwarf King establishing such a knight order—dwarves preferred to rely on their own efforts! Thus, they were highly dissatisfied with the members of the Black Panther Knights who trained day after day without engaging in labor. Initially, the Dwarf King had to impose taxes on various large tribes to fund this knight order, which led to subtle tensions between those tribes and the Dwarf King.

Consider the fact that a single black panther consumes 25 kilograms of meat per day, not to mention the substantial appetite of dwarves themselves. Supporting such a knight order was indeed no easy task.

Just as these dwarf warriors rushed down the mountain, they witnessed something even more terrifying: the vengeful spirits summoned by El from hell, filled with murderous intent, lunged at them with fangs bared! These hellish spirits attacked and bit their victims. Any dwarf warrior bitten by them suffered extreme pain, screaming wildly.

Yet, seeing the condition of those bitten warriors made one question whether this place was even Earth or hell!

Nine massive dragon hurricanes, meteor showers from the sky, and the hellish spirits attacking from below—these three forbidden techniques turned the group of dwarf warriors surrounding the 2,000 elf archers into chaos, with blood flying everywhere! It hadn’t been long since these three forbidden techniques were used, yet the number of dwarf warriors killed had already exceeded 5,000! With their deployment, the entire mountain became a giant meat grinder.

At that moment, the second-in-command of the magical beasts suddenly changed expression, abandoned Moses, and rushed headfirst toward the nine dragon hurricanes! As he moved forward, his domain expanded rapidly—his silver-white domain instantly covered an area of a kilometer! This area was twice as large as the Ghost King’s war domain back then. Once Tek’s domain was established, the nine dragon hurricanes began shrinking within it and vanished in moments.

The fire meteors falling from the sky, upon touching Tek’s domain, turned into red liquids falling into the sea, quickly dissolving into dark red mist and disappearing into the air.

Tek continued to move forward. With his domain covering thousands of kilometers, he brought most of the regionalresentment spirits under his silver-white domain space. Soon, thoseresentment spirits were filled with terrifying screams! The hellishresentment spirits within the silver-white domain seemed to be dissolved by some horrible solution—their entire bodies rapidly melting away at a speed visible to the naked eye! The three forbidden techniques were quickly broken by Tek’s domain. But at this point, the dwarf warriors suffered heavy losses; the number of combat-ready warriors was now less than ten thousand. Initially, under the pressure from Moses and the two thousand elf archers, the dwarf warriors had already lost over two thousand men. This time, with the combined efforts of Du Fan, Naixiu, and Ai Er, the three forbidden techniques caused even greater casualties among the dwarf warriors. Adding those killed or wounded by Moses and the archers, the number of combat-ready dwarfs was now less than ten thousand! After eliminating the three forbidden techniques, Tek headed straight for Moses, and his silver-white domain once again clashed with Moses’s black domain. “Moses, you can’t defeat me,” Tek shouted loudly. Under Tek’s domain covering thousands of kilometers, Moses’s gravity space domain appeared like a tiny black ball beneath a huge silver ball, with signs of being gradually swallowed by the silver sphere. Where Tek’s silver domain touched Moses’s domain, it began to cover Moses’s black ball bit by bit. After Tek dealt with all three forbidden techniques, the dwarf warriors started to gather neatly behind him. It seemed they intended to use Tek’s domain to attack the mountain top again! Tek’s silver domain then covered all the remaining dwarf warriors. However, Moses’s gravity space domain still covered the path to the cave, preventing any dwarf warriors from advancing further. “Tek, aren’t you afraid of being punished by the Great Commander for interfering so blatantly in the affairs of the dwarf race?” Moses said grimly.

“Haha, Moses, what are you talking about? You’re from the elf race. I’m helping the dwarves fight you—how could I interfere in their internal affairs?” Hearing Moses say this, Tek wasn’t angry at all; instead, he burst into laughter.
Yet this statement made it extremely difficult for Moses to retort.
“Tek, do you know that we’re all brothers of Lord Basha? Moses is Lord Basha’s eldest brother. By openly besieging the son of the Dwarf King, Lord Basha’s eldest brother, isn’t that clearly interfering in the dwarves’ internal affairs?” Watching the verbal exchange between Moses and Tek, Du Fan suddenly flew into the air and shouted at Tek.
“Hehe, you little brat. Why did you run out into this mess instead of staying at home? Aren’t you afraid I’ll take care of you too?” Seeing Du Fan, Tek wasn’t surprised at all; instead, he laughed even louder.
Seeing Moses struggling to maintain his domain, Du Fan had an idea. Wielding Frostfall Snow, he plunged headfirst into Tek’s silver domain.
As soon as he entered Tek’s silver domain, Du Fan’s Absolute Protection Domain activated automatically, and a snow-white sphere appeared within it.
The moment he entered Tek’s silver domain, Du Fan felt his energy disappearing rapidly. It was as if the energy layer surrounding his domain was being continuously broken down and dissipated at an unbelievable speed!
Experiencing this, Du Fan understood why Moses was struggling so much under Tek’s domain’s pressure!
“Second Commander Tek, your domain is really strange!” Du Fan said, pretending to be completely relaxed as he was deep inside Tek’s domain.
“Oh, oh. Your domain is also very strange—you can move around freely inside mine,” Tek replied with a smile.
“This isn’t a domain. It’s just a protection skill,” Du Fan said.
Hearing this, a strange expression appeared on Tek’s face. “Du Fan, is this a skill? I’ve never heard of such a protection skill before,” Tek said.
“Sigh, Second Commander Tek. Well, I’m just that unlucky. As you can see, I’ve reached the level of a domain master, but I don’t have a domain of my own. All I have is this protection skill,” Du Fan explained.

“Hmm, it’s really strange,” Tek said after thinking seriously about it.
Seeing Tek’s expression, Du Fan felt pleased—it seemed that this second-in-command of the magical beasts truly didn’t know about something like an Absolute Protection Domain.
“Still, I sense some kind of domain presence inside,” Tek said earnestly. “Perhaps your domain is a very special kind, and you haven’t fully discovered its functions yet.”
Indeed, many who have reached the level of domain experts still feel quite unfamiliar with the domains that suddenly appear before them. It takes time for many to fully understand the functions of such domains through gradual exploration.
For a domain expert like Du Fan, it’s not strange at all that he hasn’t yet figured out the functions of his own domain.
But after hearing Tek’s words, Du Fan nodded inwardly—this second-in-command of the magical beast race could actually sense the domain aura within his Absolute Protection. That was no small feat.
