บท 708: Fighting a Rank 9 Beast Part 3

From its gaping maw, a ball of dark energy began to form. The air around them seemed to chill as an intense foreboding filled the battlefield. 

The energy within the ball swirled ominously, growing in size and power. It was clear to everyone present that the beast was no longer playing around.

"Move, dammit! Move!" Everly shouted, trying to avoid the impending attack. But her body, already pushed past its limit, failed to respond in time.

"Get down!" Seraphina yelled. 

Channeling all of her Qi, she used her ultimate defensive technique, [Hydrometallic Bastion]! A technique she worked with the Elders to create with the image of being impenetrable.

A merge of Water and Metal surrounded all of her companions in a castle-like defense. This technique was supposedly impenetrable because it became harder when an opposing force struck it. Simultaneously, it had some of the flexibility of water, allowing it to absorb more power.
