Chapter 2183: Shaking the Mountain II
"Continue attacking!" The hooded woman accompanying Lady Envy from earlier started shouting.
Twenty individuals lit up cannons with a dragon head design and all of them released a powerful explosion that is pointed towards the mountain. The powerful explosions did shake the mountain as the force of the explosion reverberated. Even if the barrier could protect the mountain from getting directly hit, the excess force would still reach the mountain.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"As expected, the barrier is incredibly powerful since it is pulling energy from the dragon veins." The hooded woman stated.
"You should really work on empowering your forces more, Akane. You should get more stuff from your masters since you could not even break down a single barrier." Lady Envy stated. "Your assistance would be useful seeing as you have just been idling by while we are almost out of ammo." Akane stated as she glared at Lady Envy.
"Anger is not really my expertise so you cannot feed me that, my darling Akane. Your pretty face does not become prettier when you are angry. Show some envy and I might even call it the most beautiful face that I have seen. So beautiful that I would want to rip it out of your head." Lady Envy stated as each statement became more venomous as she keeps speaking.
"If you could damage that barrier then I might even show envy towards you. As you are now, I do not even feel a little bit jealous." Akane stated as she wanted to agitate Lady Envy.
"Ohoh! Is that so? Let me show you what Envy can truly do then." Lady Envy stated as she fell for the trick as she was only there to deal with the other Ryujin.
Lady Envy's head suddenly elongated as the beautiful face of a woman suddenly turned into that of a green serpent with a crown of snakes on top of her head. She then released a noxious gas via her mouth, and it actually started to weaken the barrier that is protecting the mountain. She returned to her humanoid form as it has reached the stamina limit since she is still bound in this body.
"That is how you do it, little Akane. Not like your pointless bombs that just shakes the barrier. My Envious Smog easily weakened the barrier to such a degree. After all, to defeat natural energy then you must also use natural energy." Lady Envy stated with a small chuckle.
"I admit that I am a bit jealous but not to the point that I would strangle you over it. You only weakened the barrier and not destroyed it completely." Akane stated as she did feel a sliver of jealousy that she could not destroy or weaken the barrier.
"Ohoh! The little Akane is actually feeling jealousy! Such a wonderful day! Alas, the owners of the mountain have finally appeared." Lady Envy stated as she looked towards the numerous figures slowly descending from atop the mountain.
"All of you dares to destroy the sacred mountain that is home to the Ryujin! All of you shall not escape horrible deaths. Attack!" A male Ryujin stated as he is one of the generals under Nu Wa.
Upon his command, all the Ryujins that were under him were still behind the barrier. They made sure to release powerful elemental spells towards the assailants while being protected by the barrier. They are not fools to leave the protective capabilities of the barrier and attack the assailants head on as there might be tools that the enemy have that can incapacitate them. A barrage of elemental spells suddenly rained down upon the assailants while Lady Envy casually used a barrier to protect herself.
"Deploy the formation!" Akane commanded as all of the Charm Masters started chanting their mantras.
All the Charm Masters activated the prepared formation that formed a large dome shield around them. This dome shield protected all of them against the barrage of the elemental spells as it is also made up of all six elements. This formation is called the Elemental Nullification Array which was created specifically to counter the Ryujin. Other Ryujin have already fallen against this array and those were the ones that were killed earlier when Peridot escaped from the eastern continent.
"Such a powerful array!" The general of the Ryujin stated.
The Ryujin did not stop using spells to see the limits of the array, but the enemies were all perfectly protected by the barrier. The enemies started launching cannon attacks once again towards the barrier in order to make sure that it will be destroyed. The Envious Smog that Lady Envy used is still in effect and is slowing down the power of the mountain barrier to pull more energy from the dragon veins.
"Continue attacking it until we destroy the barrier!" Akane commanded.
"Elemental Catastrophe!" The Ryujin general stated as a lump of powerful energy made up of the combination of all the elements suddenly slammed against the enemy barrier.
The Elemental Nullification Array shook as it was hit by a powerful spell. Some of the Charm Masters even spat out blood as they were the ones maintaining the array. Seeing that it was effective in damaging the enemies, the Ryujin General once again tried to use Elemental Catastrophe but he noticed another attack from the individual they marked as a threat.
Lady Envy turned her head into that of a green snake once again and spat out poisonous napalm towards the barrier. Fearing that the attack might weaken the barrier even more, Ryujin General had to use his current spell to hit the attack of Lady Envy. The poisonous napalm met with the unfinished Elemental Catastrophe spell and destroyed each other.

"I live for moments like this when there is power imbalance! More! Show me more and release all your envy against each other!" Lady Envy stated as she entered a euphoric high because of the tension of the battle. Slowly and surely, Lady Envy took off the kimono she wore to reveal a snake scaled body.
