Corrupt Creations-Chapter 340 - Battle On The Lake

Every single member of the Illusive Ethereal Sanctuary, except for the Sanctuary Master, felt insulted. Even part of their fears turned into rage after hearing those words.

"Hehehe... So that means we will have to retrieve those individuals by force."

After the Sanctuary Master said those words, the ancient purple orb floating in the air in front of him flew high up above the area. Out of nowhere, the aura around the orb expanded and a light purple eye formed on its surface.

The Palace Masters felt they were being observed, but other than that, nothing more happened.

The Lake Mother looked towards the enemy formation and gave her orders: "Attack! Destroy those purple pillars for me. You don't need to hold anything back if anyone tries to block your path."

A second after she finished giving her orders, eleven swirling vortexes appeared below the feet of those eleven Palace Masters and they vanished. Every single one of those women, moved towards a different pillar with an impressively high speed.

"Don't just stand there doing nothing. I want three elders and twenty disciples protecting each pillar and even if you were to lose your lives battling, the pillars must not be broken."

The Sanctuary Master suddenly gave his overbearing orders and just like he asked, the cultivators under his banners started to quickly act.

While the Palace Masters were moving towards their individual objective, the Lake Mother was the first one that had really decided to attack. Her body wasn't as mobile as it used to be anymore, but her control over the water element was splendid.

She swiftly infused her Mana inside the lake and like two huge snakes, dual horizontal pillars of water jumped towards the Sanctuary Master. Each one of those pillars were almost thirty meters thick, but the most fearsome thing about them was the Mana Sovereign aura they contained.

The Sanctuary Master didn't move as well, he waited till those water snakes were reaching close to him, to finally act. An elusive purple aura circled the area around his body and some really strange attributes started to operate inside that area.

When the water touched that strange aura, somehow, it wasn't just blocked, but it vanished instead. The exact point where their abilities met, was where the water snakes' bodies were vanishing, as if it was being transported to another place.

Looking at that scene, the Lake Mother didn't feel anything out of the ordinary. She had already confronted the Sanctuary Master once and she knew the strange attributes behind his techniques. That's why she knew that in order to reach him, she would have to drown him in a barrage of water elemental abilities.

In a single moment, twenty other water snakes appeared from below, moving towards the enemy with even more ferocity than before.

Those twenty water snakes slithered their way towards the Sanctuary Master, moving through the lake waters as if it was solid ground. Their speed was at least twice as faster as those two previous ones, since the Lake Mother was trying to pressure her enemy with a barrage of strong and swift attacks.

Even before any of those snakes came closer to him, around the Sanctuary Master, that thick purple fog from before, started to circle and move. In that area, reality seemed to be subjected to his will and everything turned into an illusion.

Twenty water snakes aggressively came crashing down on him and around the area where he was standing. It seemed that the Lake Mother didn't want to leave him any space for maneuver. But just as her water snakes entered in contact with that purple smoke, she knew something was off.

Actually, her abilities went completely past the Sanctuary Master, but didn't manage to damage him in the least. It didn't even hit him at all. His purple fog had changed his figure into an elusive image that completely ignored the water snakes.

The lake water splashed everywhere and fierce waves were created in that area, but that man's figure stood there, untouched and unfazed by anything.

The Lake Mother furrowed her eyebrows, but she didn't do anything else. The ability that he had just used, was a very difficult to display technique, since it had some spatial elements infused inside of it. However, the core of that ability laid in the mysterious Illusive Ethereal bloodline.

The Sanctuary Master was able to turn his own body into an illusion for some time, ignoring physical attacks and effects against him. The only downside, was that he wouldn't be able to move while in that form.

The Lake Mother calmly looked at him and said: "Don't think that ability of yours going to work forever."

Swoosh!

Suddenly, a strange aura filled the whole lake. It was like something had just activated.

Actually, the Lake Mother had just used her connection with the formation, to increase the water elemental energy around that area. 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚

Out of nowhere, water particles started to drop from the sky, increasing the volume of the whole lake. However, the strangest part of it, was that there wasn't a single cloud up there in the skies, but it was heavily raining.

Those waster particles coiled around the Sanctuary Master and his intangible form was reversed back. His powers were still working and his aura was as strong as ever, but those drops of water weren't permitting him to change his body attributes any longer.

Impressively, those droplets of water were creating minor changes in the spatial laws, to the point it would affect any spatial related abilities by generating more variations on the environment.

The Lake Mother looked towards her enemy and said: "You better fight me seriously now. Riptide!"

Out of nowhere, a strong current formed around the area the Sanctuary Master was standing. The lake had become so hazardous and furious at that place, that it resembled the fierce waters of an ocean storm. The water refused to let him stay there, attacking him from every single direction.. After evading many of those storming waves, it was getting impossible for him to stay at that area and he was forced to move back.
