Is that a Wisp?

"Haah!" Krune gasped for air, having slammed more than twenty Air Needles at the Yin Dragon, noticing that all he had managed to do so was destroy a couple of its scales.

It wasn't because the Air Needle proved ineffective. Instead, the Yin Dragon was so fast that it dodged the attacks the moment the Air Needle landed on it.

Even though Chen Xue was turning the Cloud Whale accordingly, the Yin Dragon's speed was too high, allowing it to dodge the entirety of the Air Needle.

Most of the Air Needle's power lay in its ability to penetrate through things. So, with that taken out of context, its might had been weakened a lot.

"Shall we engage it in close combat?" Wang Hao asked, gritting his teeth. After all, the Yin Dragon had been mocking them all along, hurling a string of expletives at them, followed by their families, etc.

"Don't give in to its taunts. That's one of the basics," Krune said in an effort to console him, conversing in his mind. "Its skin is tough to withstand our attacks. Where are the Imperial Meisters, mother?"

"One of them is positioned towards your west. I've told him to unleash the entirety of his Imperial Arms' power and make a retreat. He won't be able to evade the Yin Dragon's speed otherwise," Daxia Ting replied.

"Tell him to launch an attack after thirty seconds. We'll coordinate accordingly," Krune replied to her before informing Wang Hao and Chen Xue about the same, "I'll gather its attention using my Imperial Arms. Flank it using your strongest attacks in the meantime. The moment the attack lands on the Yin Dragon, transform into Yin Beasts to launch your respective attacks. Retreat immediately. It won't die from just one attack alone. Don't give it a chance to retaliate."

"We know," Chen Xue said before flying away, making an arc towards the Yin Dragon's right. Wang Hao arched towards its left while Krune deactivated his Cloud Whale, flying in the air as he shouted, "Damn snake, let me see if you can withstand this."

The moment he said this, he activated his Star Imperial Arms, causing three flaming rings to manifest around him, increasing in size as they revolved around him, slowly turning blue before they began to spark.

"S-Star Imperial Meister?" The Yin Dragon was shocked when the sound of thunder reverberated through the sky, drowning its words. The land brightened from the intense light emitted by the flickering lightning arcs dancing around between the three rings around Krune, causing him to resemble a deity.

Right at this moment, a three-meter-long flaming arrow arced through the air, making a whistling sound before slamming into the Yin Dragon, bursting into a sea of flames. Immediately after, five more flaming arrows seared through the air and slammed into it, homing towards it despite its attempt to run away.

The arrows seemed able to track targets, a reason the respective Imperial Meister had volunteered to attack first. All six flaming arrows landed on their target, enveloping the Yin Beast in a sea of flames, eliciting countless shrieks from it.

"Now!" Wang Hao shouted as he activated his transformation, turning into a Yin Beast as his speed exploded, arriving before the Yin Dragon as he swiped with his claws.

They glowed before condensing large fiery claws, cutting into the Yin Dragon's body, drawing out a lot of blood as a result. He hadn't even finished his slash when the Yin Dragon's tail slammed into him, sending him flying away as a result.

Wang Hao crashed into a row of trees before stopping, coughing out a mouthful of blood as a result.

"Wang Hao!" Chen Xue avoided attacking as she flew towards him. Her attacks were of the frost attribute and would only serve to dampen the flames. So, she instead went to Wang Hao's aid.

"Roar!" the Yin Dragon screamed in pain as it rolled on the ground in pain, trying its best to douse the flames but failing to do so. After all, they weren't ordinary flames, but those generated by an Imperial Arms, possessing the power of the sun.

So, until their energy was exhausted, they wouldn't die out.

However, even though it was suffering from two powerful flaming attacks, Krune felt his heart thumping in tension all of a sudden, noticing a pair of eyes staring at him from within the sea of flames. 'This beast! It won't die from this!'

Instead of putting on a show, Krune focused all his attention on his Imperial Arms. This was his first activation, so he had to concentrate a lot.

The outermost ring flew away from him and flashed through the air like lightning, arriving above the Yin Dragon as it expanded in size, enveloping it completely. It then turned transparent before unleashing a certain sealing effect.

Roar!

The Yin Dragon roared in pain as it felt its body turn numb, feeling a weird sensation as if it was getting chained down by something.

This was one of the two abilities of a Star Imperial Arms: Seal!

The second ring then flashed before the Yin Dragon's head, beginning to rotate as it slammed into its head, causing countless sparks as a result. The lightning ring then began to cut into its skin, causing fear to appear in its eyes for the first time.

But strangely, the foreboding sensation in Krune's mind didn't vanish when he watched a massive bird of ice take off towards the air, beginning to head towards the Yin Dragon.

"No! That would only put out the fire!" Krune screamed as he shouted in his mind, "Mom! Tell this Moon Imperial Meister to stop his attack. He'll screw up everything."

"I've been commanding him all this time. But he's not listening for some reason. No! It's not him alone. Another Imperial Meister is doing the same now. Damn it! Son! Take the two Imperial Warlocks and retreat from there! Something's strange! Retreat!" Daxia Ting's voice was in a fluster as she shouted in his mind.

"Too late!" Krune scowled, watching a giant firebird take off towards the air and fly towards him instead.

He was the target!
