Chapter 69: The Wheel of Time and Space

  (Recommendation post unlocked, vote requested!)

  This was an extremely unfair battle. Hussein looked around quickly, but couldn't see Semel's figure because only Duwei could see Semel's appearance.

  As if in response to Hussein's roar, the clouds pressed lower and lower, followed by a flash of lightning. A streak of electricity split the sky like an axe splitting the heavens, striking straight down at Hussein's head!

  Hussein's face was instantly illuminated by the lightning, and this powerful knight had not a hint of fear on his face. The long sword in his hand pointed straight at the sky, and the lightning struck the tip of the sword with incredible speed. The golden flames on Hussein's body blazed fiercely, and his sharp sword fell swiftly... Du Wei rubbed his eyes hard, almost thinking he was seeing things!

  This Hussein, he actually split the lightning in two with a single sword!

  A bolt of lightning struck the ground, booming loudly, and snow flew everywhere. The thick layer of snow on the ground had already been blown away, revealing the black earth beneath! A strong gust of air lifted Du Wei up and threw him out, and he rolled several times after landing! The ground had already been struck by lightning into a large pit! Housain stood in the middle of this large pit, his long sword pointing at the sky, with an arrogant expression on his face. Despite being covered in wounds, he looked like a war god, majestic and powerful!

  "Hahaha! You think I really can't see you?!" Hussein sneered, suddenly stretching out his hand to forcefully poke through his other arm, then gently wiping his eyes with his blood-stained fingers. He hugged the long sword and muttered to himself...

  Soon, a blood color flashed in Hussein's eyes, his eyes had turned crimson, and he looked at the sky, his gaze had fallen on Semel. The knight sneered: "Ah! I see you!"

  Then Hussein made a slight bowing motion! Then he straightened up with force, and his whole body shot towards the Semel in the sky like a sharp arrow!

  Saier raised her hand lightly, and immediately a ripple appeared in front of her, forming layer upon layer of defense. However, Housain's long sword was like a red-hot iron rod inserted into the snow! The golden Dou Qi instantly shattered those ripples, and then the tip of the long sword pierced Saier's left arm!

  Du Wei couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, but Sai Mei'er was coldly laughing: "Powerful knight...... I don't have a body for you to harm!"

  As soon as he finished speaking, Semel's other hand had already lightly attached to the knight's chest... A red flame suddenly burst out of Semel's palm, and the knight let out a miserable cry. His long sword also fell from his hand, and his body was instantly knocked flying, sending him tumbling through the air for over ten meters before crashing headfirst into the ground.

  Hussein, who had fallen into the snowdrift, struggled to get up. His chest was already charred black by the flames, his clothes and bandages were burnt, revealing the bloody wounds underneath. However, the knight sneered coldly: "Oh, you don't have a body? You're saying that you just used an illusion to fight me?"

  Xia Mei'er's smile suddenly froze on her face! She was shocked to discover that the long sword was still stuck in her arm!

  On the sword's edge, a wisp of black air suddenly emerged. The black air seemed to have a devouring power and quickly wrapped itself around Saymer's arm! Thread by thread, it corroded her body!

  "When you can hide your figure in front of me, I guessed it. You might be using magic to split your body and fight with me!" Hussein panted heavily, his injuries were severe, he stumbled and finally sat down on the ground: "This new spell of mine has never been used on anyone before, you are the first one!"

  Xia Mei's face was filled with a pained expression, but suddenly she revealed a resolute look, and then her right hand chopped down! In an instant, she had severed the left arm that had already been wrapped in dark energy from her own body! The left arm fell slowly, and before it even hit the ground, it had disintegrated into nothingness along with the dark energy.

  Semel's body also shook from the sky and fell down. Her body, missing a left arm, stumbled and fell beside Duwei. She gritted her teeth and said: "Zack! I'm sorry... He is very powerful... Without my own body, I'm afraid I won't be able to defeat him..."

  As soon as he finished speaking, a silver light flashed on Semel's body, and his originally lost left arm regrew from his body, becoming intact again. However, Du Wei could see that the luster on Semel's body had dimmed significantly.

  "Haha......" Hussein forced a smile: "Female magician! I don't know who you are! You're very powerful, but you chose to use a split-body illusion to fight me, so you can only exert half of your strength... That's self-deprecation! There is no magician on this continent who can defeat me, Hussein, with just half their strength! None!!"

  When he said this sentence, he also staggered and stood unsteadily, but suddenly raised his hand and waved it forcefully!

  A golden aura shot out from his hand, like a giant golden sword, cutting through the air swiftly. In an instant, the woods beside him let out a cracking sound of splintering wood! Immediately, countless snowflakes fell, and about a dozen large trees were cut off at the waist by the aura! The cut-off areas all became sharp points, and then a dozen large trees shot towards Du Wei's location in Hussein's cold smile.

  Saiermu's eyes were resolute, and she suddenly grabbed Duwei's clothes with force, throwing him far away! Duwei's body was thrown into the distant snowy ground by Saiermu, but saw more than a dozen large trees crashing towards Saiermu at the same time! A cluster of silver light burst out from Saiermu's body, barely resisting those sharp tree trunks.

  But Hussein sneered: "How long can your magic last? Female magician? There are many, many trees here!"

  One hand was holding onto the tree trunk, using his internal energy to control it as it continued to press down. His other hand swung out again, and his internal energy split off, making a cracking sound that didn't stop. From far away, over ten large trees were cut in half at the waist and shot towards Samir!

  Saiyarel finally couldn't hold back any longer and shouted loudly: "Then let's die together!"

  As soon as she finished speaking, the red cloak on her body had already fluttered up and transformed into a dazzling red flame!

  Saimel's body was like a raging fire, and in an instant, the flames had engulfed everything! The tree trunks on her were ignited by the flames, and in an instant, they were reduced to ashes! The flames swept towards Hussein, who let out a loud cry. He mustered his last strength and formed a defensive aura around himself with his internal energy. In the terrifying magical flames, Hussein felt like his entire body was being scorched, his beautiful golden hair gradually turning black, and he could feel his internal energy being burned away bit by bit in the flames.

  Semel's flame body is indeed terrifying! Du Wei felt the heat wave from a distance, and the snow on the ground instantly turned into water and then evaporated in an instant! The ice layer on the surface of the large circular lake behind Hussein had already melted instantly, and even the lake water began to evaporate, with groups of water vapor rising up, forming large pieces of fog! Du Wei struggled for a moment and shouted loudly: "Semel!"

  Du Wei remembered the six magic spells that little Vivian had left him before she departed.

  The six spells left by the honest Vivian were the most powerful magic she knew. With Duvie's current strength, he was still far from being able to use that kind of magic, and using it rashly would likely cause his body to be drained dry by the magic that required a huge amount of magical power to drive!

  But at this moment, Du Wei had no choice.

  Saimere is more than just a magical creature to him, she's Duwei's friend who often likes to swing her legs and run back and forth in front of Duwei playing pranks!

  Du Wei exerted himself to prop up his body, then stood up, opened his hands, and then he took a deep breath, starting to chant the incantation...

  When the first word of the incantation emerged from Duwei's mouth, he felt that the air around him had instantly turned into a black hole! That black hole was frantically absorbing Duwei's magic power!

  He almost collapsed instantly! But his strong will supported him, he adjusted his sensory power to its full state, all the magic was concentrated, supporting the absorption of the surrounding black hole!

  When the first incantation was spoken from Duwei's mouth... Almost a hundred meters away from Duwei, the entire space twisted slightly, and then in this space, everything slowed down quietly!

  Evaporation of water vapor, combustion of flames, melting of accumulated snow...

  Du Wei continued to chant in a weak voice, he felt his life force was almost withering away, his originally smooth skin quickly became old and dull, the color also faded away, the light in his eyes grew dimmer, Du Wei felt that all the strength in his body, even his fresh blood, were being drained away from his body bit by bit!

  He still struggled to chant the spell!

  It was as if an invisible giant hand had turned the speed of time and space to its maximum, Du Wei looked at everything in front of him slowing down, he knew he had succeeded, but his magic had almost been drained!

  Not enough... still not enough!

  Du Wei's inner scream, his magic was really unable to support this top-level magic! The clothes on his body began to shatter piece by piece, Du Wei felt that his own body was like being thrown into a compressive space force, countless huge hands were squeezing him, trying to squeeze out the last drop of water... the last drop of magic!

  Du Wei even felt that he no longer had the power to chant spells, using all his strength, his throat could only produce a weak voice...

  Time and space have come to a standstill!

  It's a very subtle moment.

  Hussein still maintained the posture of shrinking into the Dou Qi light group, and around his body, Sameer's flames made from his own body were still surrounding him, but not a single flame was solidified!

  Du Wei strode forward with great effort and shouted loudly: "Time... time... retreat... retreat... retreat..."

  Everything went black before his eyes, and he hadn't even finished saying the last curse word when he fainted.

  Fortunately, heaven still favors our little aristocrats.

  Du Wei didn't finish his last curse, someone helped him complete it!

  "Turn back the wheel of time!"

  An aged and calm voice came, followed by a white shadow that flew quickly from afar, withered but stable hands opened, as if pushing a millstone!

  The old magician, Vivian's teacher, has finally appeared.

  His face was filled with an extremely solemn and serious expression, he rapidly chanted the incantation, the incantation he chanted was exactly the same as Du Wei's earlier one! The magician's hands seemed to have already controlled time itself!

  Then space distorted again!

  The flames that filled the sky rotated back and forth, bit by bit, until they finally disappeared, condensing into a single mass. Then, within this mass of flame, Saimel's body gradually appeared...

  The flames all disappeared, and the tree trunks that had been burned to ashes also turned into countless dust. Then the dust condensed and restored itself into large pieces of tree trunks...

  The entire space-time seemed to have turned into a scene from a movie that Du Wei had seen before, playing in reverse!

  The old magician's eyes were serious, he reversed time to when Saymer was still surrounded by many tree trunks, he closed his mouth and stopped chanting the spell.

  Then he waved his hand and those tree trunks were swept away by a strong gust of wind.

  When time resumed its slow and smooth flow, the old magician quickly ran to Hussein's side. He pulled out a bottle from his robe, unscrewed the cap, and poured the contents into the knight's mouth.

  The weak Hussein could no longer say a word, only staring at the old magician, the hostility in his eyes disappeared, as if he had forced a smile, but couldn't utter a single word.

  And in the next instant, the old magician had floated to Semer's side. The old man looked at Semer with a serious face, his expression was exceptionally complex, and a hint of pain flashed in his eyes. Finally, he let out a light sigh, took out a white bottle from his bosom, poured out a drop of silver liquid, thought for a moment, and then poured out another drop.

  Two drops on his fingertips, with the old magician's chanting, gently transformed into a soft light that enveloped Semel, and Semel's body, which was almost weak to the point of disappearance, gradually became clear.

  The old magician let out a sigh of relief and finally ran to Duwei's side, where he poured down three large bottles of magical potion in one breath. This was a replenishing potion that many high-level magicians would carry with them.

  Du Wei's body, those withered and dry skin became smooth again, then he finally woke up from his coma, coughing loudly, shocked for a moment, causing severe hypoxia in his lungs, and after a long time of forceful coughing, he finally came back to life!

  The old magician was already furious, he stood up with a face full of anger, as if scolding an errant child in the tone of a strict father.

  "He first pointed at Hussein on the ground: 'You! You this foolish kid! When can you change this arrogant and violent temper, always fighting at the slightest disagreement?'"

  Then he looked at Du Wei and scolded: "You! You silly kid! Do you think the 'Wheel of Time and Space' spell can be driven by your current pitiful magic? If it weren't for me, you would have been sucked dry by now!"

  Finally, he looked at Semel, and his eyes suddenly revealed a complex flavor that was difficult to describe... It seemed like a thread of... tenderness?

  "Saemel... my god, I knew you wouldn't die that easily!" The magician suddenly shook his body and vigorously shook his head: "Saemel... it's really you... I didn't missee! It's actually really you!"

  You don't save me from hitting the wall, you don't vote for me and I'll be miserable!
