Chapter 294: Life Domain—Unleashed!
At this moment.
The frigid wind was biting, and the dark mass of insects was like an endless dark sea, nearly engulfing the entire sky.
Aster Grant hovered in mid-air, his robes flapping loudly in the wind, and behind him stood Lazuli, Vera, Veridia, Lilith, and the Snow Maiden in sequence.
Their auras intertwined, forming an invisible barrier that made even the raging swarm of insects restless.
Aster Grant’s gaze slowly swept across the battlefield and then landed on Crystal Winslow.
The next moment.
Scarlett suddenly appeared beside him, and when he reappeared, he was already next to Crystal Winslow.
Seeing the Life Flame still burning on her body, Aster Grant’s brow furrowed tightly.
"Celestial Grace."
His voice was deep, as a gentle yet grand golden light flowed from his hand, covering Crystal Winslow immediately—
The Life Flame that had been burning continuously was gently extinguished as if pressed by an invisible hand.
"Why are you using this power again?"
Aster Grant’s tone wasn’t very good.
After all, Crystal Winslow had only just fully recovered with difficulty.
If she continued to use this skill....
What if she completely expended her Life Force again?
Crystal Winslow acted as if she hadn’t heard, just staring blankly at him, as though in a dream.
She had imagined countless times the scene of their reunion, but she had never thought he would truly descend like a god before her.
"Why aren’t you speaking? Could it be you don’t want to see me?"
Aster Grant raised an eyebrow.
And it was only then that Crystal Winslow returned to her senses.
A subtle blush emerged on her face, and she slightly lowered her head.
The cold, icy demeanor she always maintained melted away in that moment.
"No... no!"
She whispered, her voice almost drowned out by the wind.
Seeing Crystal Winslow like this, Aster Grant was somewhat surprised.
It seemed that in the long time since they had last met, this ice-cold beauty had changed dramatically...
However, this was not the time for reminiscing.
He simply advised her softly, "Be safe," then turned his gaze back to the overwhelming Swarm.
Right now, they needed to solve these problems quickly.
At this moment, Crystal Winslow hurriedly raised her head to warn:
"Aster Grant, be careful of those two Totem-level Swarm— they possess Void Power, similar to Scarlett’s abilities!"
Upon hearing this, Aster Grant was somewhat shocked.
Originally, Void Power was exclusive to the Ghost Race, but now the Swarm could use it too.
Almost instantly, Aster Grant guessed...
This group of insects was likely not creatures from the Alternate Space.
However, when it came to countering Void Power...
He smiled slightly—Lazuli’s "Destruction Domain" was the nemesis of all spatial powers.
As long as she deployed her domain, the biggest advantage of those two Swarm would disappear entirely.
The real headache was the seemingly endless sea of Low Tier insects.
Meanwhile, those two humanoid Swarm, having recovered from their initial surprise, once again showed undisguised greed in their eyes.
The escape of the Frost Serpent had left them regretful, but now a new "feast" appeared before them—
The Snow Maiden was a Totem-level entity with pure, surging energy.
And another, seemingly only a Monarch Tier One elf, had such a strong Life Energy within her that it was unprecedented for them!
The Swarm evolved by devouring life and Spiritual Power.
If they could absorb her...
The two Swarm licked their lips in unison—
Perhaps with this, they could break through to Totem Tier Five, or even stronger!
"Coming to us on its own..."
They raspingly whispered, then issued a new command to the entire Swarm:
Target change—lock onto the elf!
In an instant, the entire sky-filled Swarm turned direction like a bloodthirsty black cloud, surging towards Vera!
And next to Vera, Lazuli, and Veridia, instantly felt tremendous pressure.
Lazuli couldn’t help but nudge Vera with her elbow and whispered:
"Hey, green tea spirit, are you sure? If something goes wrong, we might end up here, and our master is here too!"
Even the always composed Veridia cast a questioning look.
Vera didn’t say much, only glanced back at them, eyes filled with unprecedented calm and resolve.
Her gaze seemed to say:
Trust me.
The two said nothing more and focused on preparing for battle.
At the same time, the Snow Maiden had descended among the Snow Wolf Clan.
Seeing her clan members severely injured and nearly everyone wounded, she silently extended her hand—
"Recovery."
The cold voice was like a command, and the pure healing power of the ice and snow spread gently, swiftly healing the Snow Wolves’ wounds and restoring their strength.
The wolf clan bowed their heads, expressing sincere gratitude:
"Thank you for your grace, Snow Maiden!"
Only Seraphina lowered her head further, her voice choked with emotion:
"Snow Maiden... it’s because I didn’t fulfill my duty, so many of our clan members sacrificed..."
The Snow Maiden gently shook her head, reaching out to rub the top of her head:
"It’s not your fault, you’ve already done enough."
After comforting Seraphina, she looked up toward the distance—
The Snow Guardian had completely transformed into a lifeless ice sculpture, standing silently amidst the snow.
It was unknown how many years it would take for him to awaken again.
Seeing this scene, the Snow Maiden’s eyes were filled with sorrow.
However, she lacked the ability to avenge the giant.
She couldn’t help but lift her head and look towards the human figure in the sky.
All hope was now placed on his shoulders.
Even she hadn’t expected to impulsively entrust the fate of her entire clan to a human she had only met once.
But at this moment, there was no retreat.
At this moment, the Swarm’s offensive had already surged toward Vera like a black tide, covering the sky, even seemingly swallowing the light.
At this moment—
All eyes were focused intently on Vera.
Vera stood silently, her gaze calm as water.
She slowly raised her hands, a warm and bright jade-green glow emanating from her body.
The light was not blinding but carried a life-pressing aura that rippled outward like a tide.
The Swarm seemed to be affected by some invisible force, their movements freezing for a moment.
The next shocking scene occurred—
The bodies of the Swarm at the forefront began to rapidly wither and wilt, as if some power was draining all life from within.
They did not even have time to shriek before turning to ash, scattering in the wind.
And the green glow around Vera grew increasingly radiant.
Using herself as a conduit, she transformed the vast yet chaotic Life Energy of the Swarm into a pure energy torrent.
She spoke softly, her voice clear across the battlefield:
"Life Domain—expand."
An invisible boundary rapidly expanded outward from her, causing all Swarm that entered the domain to seem trapped in an invisible quagmire.
Their Life Energy uncontrollably flowed outward, nourishing her domain!
As Vera gathered more Life Energy, its intensity soared to new heights.
At this moment.
Even the two Totem-level Swarm finally changed their expressions.
