Soon, the space around Jared started twisting before pillars of light manifested. Then, those beams of light crisscrossed each other, enveloping Jared and Zsolt within.
That was the arcane array set up by Jared. Whenever Zsolt transformed into a leopard, his greatest ability was his speed. Jared planned to seal Zsolt within a confined space.
If Zsolt had virtually infinite space to move around in, then it would be extremely difficult for Jared to catch his opponent. With the aid of Beast Blood Empowerment, Zsolt's speed had reached an even greater height, making him appear as though he was teleporting.
When Zsolt spotted the beams of light caging him, his expression shifted. “You know how to set up arcane arrays too?”
“I know many things, and today you'll get to see them all!” Jared unleashed the Power of Dragons on Dragonslayer Sword.
A flame rose on Dragonslayer Sword. Although the burning flame was small, its temperature was suffocatingly intimidating.
Jared had used demonic fire on Dragonslayer Sword. He refused to believe that the combination of the Dragon Bell, Dragonslayer Sword, and demonic fire would fail to help him defeat Zsolt.
Zsolt snorted. “You know quite a lot. However, the gap between our strengths isn't something that can be closed with a few weapons and secret techniques!”
Ignoring his opponent, Jared shot a light from Dragonslayer Sword, which was mixed with demonic fire, at Zsolt. Meanwhile, the Dragon Bell above him continued to chase after Zsolt.
Zsolt remained composed. Seeing that the Dragon Bell and light were about to arrive before him, he vanished into thin air.
Jared missed his attack. He searched for Zsolt and noticed the latter had reemerged on the other side.
Zsolt cackled. “It's useless! You'll never harm me!”
He had moved so fast that, even though he had already relocated elsewhere, others still saw him standing at his original spot.
That was why Jared's attack fell short.
He summoned the Dragon Bell back to above his head. Its power continued to shield him.
As he thought about how to deal with Zsolt's frightening speed, he frowned. He had considered using Nine Shadows. It'd allow him to attack in many directions at once, so no matter where Zsolt escaped to, he'd be able to hit him.
Unfortunately, Nine Shadows would drain his spiritual energy quickly, so he wouldn't be able to keep it up for long.
Just as Jared was at a loss for what to do, he abruptly recalled Octo Ruler. His eyes lit up before he took out Octo Ruler. When the gemstone on Octo Ruler glimmered, beasts leaped out of it.
