Chapter 176 The Ever-Changing Bloodline Abilities

Chapter 176 The Ever-Changing Powers of Bloodlines

Leo brandished his longsword and slashed at Sephir.

The longsword could only leave a shallow wound on Sephiroth's body.

Seeing this, Leo raised an eyebrow and said, "Wizard Sephiroth, your physical body is indeed as hard as a tortoise shell."

The physical strength of Sephir's transformed body is astonishing, surpassing even the current physical strength of Leo.

Even Leo, facing the same sword strike, couldn't have blocked it so easily with his body.

Sephiroth patted the spot where Leo had struck him, as if to show off his physical body.

Sephir said, "Leo, your physical body is almost as good as mine. I'm really curious how you strengthened it. Judging from the faint fluctuations of the potion emanating from you, you must have taken the Withered Wood Potion."

"But how could taking the Deadwood Elixir normally strengthen the physical body to this extent?"

"You must have learned something from melee wizards."

"But all of that is irrelevant now. From now on, none of your secrets will change the fact that you will become my defeated opponent."

After saying this, Sephir's bat wings retracted and transformed into two fleshy growths, which then disappeared.

Sephir sprouted another pair of wings from his back, this time with feathers as white as doves.

As Sephir spread his wings, some white feathers drifted in the air. He reached out and pinched one of the feathers.

Sephir aimed the feather he was holding at Leo.

A smile appeared on Sephir's face.

The next moment, the feather transformed into an icy arrow, shooting towards Leo at incredible speed.

Leo dodged the feather.

However, the feather still condensed into an ice crystal on Leo's body.

Sephir said, "Leo, you guess how many bloodlines I have mastered."

A smile curved at the corners of Sephir's lips, as if he had victory in his grasp.

Leo said, "I'm not interested in knowing how many bloodline abilities you possess. However, being a master of many is worse than being a master of few."

"It's better to master one or two bloodline abilities than to acquire many bloodline abilities."

Upon hearing this, Sephir shook his head and said, "As expected, no matter how outstanding a mortal like you is in a certain aspect, you still can't understand a genius like me."

"Do you know the Wizard Nova?"

"I spoke with him. He was a charismatic and knowledgeable wizard."

"I once asked him what kind of wizard is truly powerful."

"The wizard Nova believes that a powerful wizard is not defined by their wizarding level or the specific powerful spell they master. Rather, it is a wizard who can skillfully use multiple spells."

"No matter how powerful the opponent is, as long as you have enough spells, you can make good use of your spell count to find the opponent's weaknesses and defeat them."

Sephir said, "Leo, during the battle just now, I learned about the composition of your spells, and I have already formed more than a dozen ways in my mind to deal with your spells one by one."

Sefir finished speaking.

The ice crystals on Leo's cheeks suddenly began to grow rapidly.

Leo frowned.

As the ice crystals grew, Leo keenly sensed that his physical strength was being depleted.

Sephir said, "A large part of your exaggerated magical display actually comes from your exaggerated physical strength."

.

"It is precisely because your physical strength is so extraordinary that you can cast spells almost without stopping."

"Only your flesh and blood puppets can be continuously generated."

"The best way to deal with this kind of spell is to deplete your physical strength."

As Sephir spoke, a series of cold arrows shot towards them.

Leo moved swiftly, dodging the cold arrows.

However, no matter how Leo tried to avoid it...

Each of these arrows would form an ice crystal somewhere on Leo's body.

Once the ice crystal solidified, Leo was unable to break it; it seemed to be connected to his body.

As ice crystals continued to appear, Leo's stamina was being depleted at an extremely rapid pace.

Seeing this, Sephir was quite surprised and said, "Your stamina is even more amazing than I expected."

"Under the same conditions, with my physical strength, facing this relentless barrage of attacks, I'm afraid my stamina would have been completely exhausted long ago."

"However, with your current stamina, you're probably close to exhaustion."

As Sephir spoke, the white wings on his back retracted, and his body then transformed into a light, jellyfish-like marine creature, swimming on the air as its ocean.

"After speaking with the wizard Nova."

"I've thought about it for a long time."

"How can one become a powerful wizard, as Nova the wizard said, proficient in so many spells?"

"Even with a level 6 talent in mental power, it's impossible to master so many different kinds of spells at the same time."

"Then, I discovered the discipline of bloodline modification."

"Bloodline modification is a wizarding discipline that involves implanting a part of a species with spiritual energy, such as demonic creatures or demonic plants, into the bloodline, thereby granting the individual the abilities of that species."

"This discipline is just one discipline, yet it is equivalent to a combination of multiple disciplines."

"As for me, in order to achieve the true meaning of power that Wizard Nova spoke of, I have been constantly modifying my bloodline, and now I have more than fifty different bloodline abilities."

"Of course, I didn't just fill in the gaps. I carefully selected each bloodline, choosing only the most powerful and outstanding bloodline abilities."

Sephir, transformed into a jellyfish, floated in the air and then, with a sway, appeared in front of Leo.

Leo's body was now covered by a large amount of ice crystals.

These ice crystals were constantly draining his strength.

However, the ice crystals did not affect Leo's actions.

Leo brandished his longsword, attempting to attack Sephiroth.

Unfortunately, Sephir moves very fast.

He easily dodged Leo's attack.

Sephir said, "I use elemental magic as a facade to mislead others into thinking I am proficient in elemental science. My true nature lies in modifying bloodlines, allowing me to adapt to any situation in battle."

"My enemy is like you, Leo."

"You've fallen into my trap, and are bound by the spider web I've woven."

"Become a ghost in my hands."

As Sephir finished speaking, his body changed again.

This time, Sephir transformed into a ten-meter-tall red behemoth.

This giant red beast has a huge volcano on its back.

Sephir, in the form of a behemoth, said in a deep, booming voice, "Leo, I will use the most powerful bloodline ability of all my bloodlines to send you on your final journey."

The giant beast opened its mouth.

A large amount of molten material gushed out towards Leo.

Encased in ice crystals, Leo raised his right hand and said, "Hmm, I understand your strength now."

"Perfect timing, now I can cast my spells too."

The next moment, raging magma erupted.
