"A guy with immense magic power, he's really troublesome!" Ezreal's brow was tightly furrowed, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead like rain.
Just then, the Red Buff flew out of the deep pit again, its magic power erupting, and the red orb on its back shining like a burning torch.
Countless giant vines once again burst from the ground like raging dragons emerging from the sea, charging towards the War Ancient Tree with an unstoppable momentum, covering the sky and earth.
The War Ancient Tree sneered, its roots retaliating with even greater ferocity.
The magic power of both sides clashed fiercely again, and the entire battlefield was enveloped in emerald green and white light. Within the light, a storm of magic power raged, making the surrounding air extremely distorted, shimmering with a colorful luster.
Suddenly, the War Ancient Tree roared, unleashing a burst of magic power output. A wave of emerald green energy instantly swept out from its center, shattering all of the Red Buff's vines into dust.
The Red Buff was once again repelled by the powerful recoil, most of the branches making up its body broken, falling heavily to the ground again like a kite with a broken string.
Ezreal glanced at it, then withdrew his gaze. These Summoned Beasts could revive even if they died, so he wasn't worried.
However, in this current situation, if the Red Buff returned to the canyon to await revival, he and the Blue Buff would absolutely not be able to defeat the War Ancient Tree.
This monstrous thing truly lived up to its reputation as a rare ancient species; its strength was indeed exceptionally formidable.
Fortunately, although the Red Buff was severely injured, it still had the strength to fight.
"Dimensional Life Share!" Ezreal formed hand seals, a white light flashing in his eyes.
The Red Buff struggled to get up from the ground, a white light also flashing in its eyes. Immediately after, the broken branches on its body visibly regenerated at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just a second or two, its injuries had recovered as good as new.
Seeing the Red Buff's injuries recover, Ezreal's heart settled slightly, and his gaze once again locked onto the War Ancient Tree.
The War Ancient Tree was now radiating a rich emerald green light all over its body, and its massive frame trembled slightly, clearly enraged to the extreme.
"You ignorant little brat, go see Alfred in hell!"
Along with its roar, the surrounding trees seemed to receive a command, extending their thick branches like giant pythons, lashing out at Ezreal and his companions.
Ezreal formed a sword-finger seal with both hands, "Amaterasu - Light Shield!"
A shield shimmering with brilliant light instantly formed in front of them. The branches struck the shield, emitting dull thudding sounds.
The Blue Buff slammed its palms onto the ground, and a huge vortex instantly appeared, attempting to draw the branches into it.
Magic power surged from the Red Buff's body, and countless vines pierced towards the branches like sharp swords.
For a time, the forces of both sides clashed fiercely in the air, dust flying and the surrounding vegetation exploding and shattering.
Seeing this, the War Ancient Tree's trunk glowed with an eerie green light, "Thorn Storm!"
Countless sharp emerald green thorns shot out from its body, rushing towards the three of them like a dense rain of arrows.
Ezreal waved his hands, "Amaterasu - Light Stream Reversal!"
A galaxy formed of 熾 white light met the Thorn Storm. The two collided, erupting in dazzling light and powerful impact.
The Blue Buff seized the opportunity to cast magic, roaring, and sharp small stone peaks instantly rose from the ground, blocking the thorns' advance.
The Red Buff's vines, in turn, took the opportunity to entangle some thorns, attempting to destroy them.
However, the War Ancient Tree's power was too immense, its magic power continuously gushing forth. The thorns broke through the defense line, shattered the galaxy, pierced through the stone mountains, and thrust towards them.
"Arcane Shift!"
Ezreal's body instantly shattered into golden energy particles, shifting dozens of meters horizontally, avoiding the thorns' attack.
The Blue Buff, with its massive size, was not fast, and was hit head-on by the thorns, causing cracks to appear on its body. However, relying on its extremely high magic resistance, it did not retreat a single step, and the wounds on its body were also rapidly healing under the bright blue light within it.
The Red Buff, on the other hand, launched a vine attack, with the vines weaving into a huge net, blocking the thorns aimed at itself.
The War Ancient Tree let out a roar, "Root Pierce!"
Soil-covered roots suddenly burst from underground, sharp as spears, stabbing towards Ezreal and his companions.
Ezreal put his hands in a Kamehameha stance, white light condensing in his palms, "Destruction Beam!"
This was Ezreal's most powerful offensive magic among his regular abilities, besides Amaterasu - Style 28.
A blazing white beam of light shot out, instantly destroying all the roots, turning them into flying ash.
"Green Leaf Strangulation!" The War Ancient Tree's offensive rose again. Countless giant leaves formed out of thin air, creating a huge vortex that swept towards them.
Ezreal's sword-finger hand had never let go, and he shouted: "Amaterasu - Light Shield Barrier!"
In an instant, a dazzling, almost tangible white light shield instantly formed in front of him.
The white light on the shield, like the dawn's early light, was full of hope and power, and it collided fiercely with the surging green leaf vortex.
With a loud "boom," a world-destroying energy fluctuation erupted at the point of collision between the two. Light and green leaves intertwined and tore at each other, and the surrounding area within dozens of meters was flattened.
At the same time, the Blue Buff, like an unshakeable giant mountain, charged bravely towards the War Ancient Tree with steady and resolute steps.
On its robust body, an earthy yellow light burned and flickered like a raging fire.
It let out a deafening roar.
Instantly, an invisible yet incredibly heavy gravity field rapidly spread outwards from the Blue Buff as its center.
The War Ancient Tree stumbled, almost falling to its knees. Its once swift movements, under the restraint of this powerful gravity, suddenly became slow and heavy, as if it had fallen into a thick mud swamp.
Its waving branches and leaves became slow and laborious, and the magic power that once flowed smoothly seemed to be frozen, circulating with difficulty.
Just as the War Ancient Tree was trapped by the gravity magic, a hint of resolute ruthlessness flashed in the eyes of the Red Buff, which had been lurking nearby, waiting for an opportunity.
It precisely controlled countless thick and tough tree vines. Those tree vines, like dragons emerging from their caves, struck out suddenly with lightning speed and a do-or-die momentum.
The War Ancient Tree, enduring the gravity field, hastily dodged to the side. Although it narrowly avoided the tree vine attack, the Blue Buff closed in at this moment, its blue-glowing fist smashing into the War Ancient Tree's body.
The War Ancient Tree was struck by the Blue Buff's powerful punch, its body flying back several meters, and large patches of leaves rustled down like snow.
