"I am fucked," Karsha muttered, feeling a wave of despair. He wasn't skilled in aerial combat yet, and the fire beam closed in on him with terrifying speed.
In the air, he was out of options. He wouldn't be able to raise his earth-base defense mid-air, and his domain, too, wasn't strong enough to withstand the impact.
His domain is effective against Tier 8 monsters, but Karsha hasn't used it in his battles, that was because whenever his domain is shattered, he gets a backlash that is several times painful, depending on how fierce the attack that broke it was.
So even though the walls of the domain could take on some of the attacks, he didn't want to suffer that much backlash.
He enveloped himself with golden light and two flames coiled around him forming two chains. His ice element also coated the surface of his armor.
