Truth be told, the moment his opponent released the Spirit Palisade, Long Kongkong was caught off guard too. A Spirit Palisade from an 8th Rank assassin!
Cold sweat seeped through the back of his armor. If his opponent had launched a full-scale attack when he had just released his domain abilities, he might not have been able to withstand it! Even the Eternal Class Adamantine Cathedra battle armor has its defensive limits and assassins are known for their explosive attacks. His luck wasn't great at all!
But as the Dazzling Starlight Spirit Furnace engulfed the battlefield and received the support of the Divine Prayers Small Tree Spirit Furnace, it unleashed a powerful force. Bathed in starlight, he had full control of the match. A single Astral Shift stopped his opponent from drawing near. As for the Thousand Strikes Spirit Furnace's attack, it was met with a shower of stars. In the fractures of starlight, it was impossible for it to reach him, let alone reveal his location.
