Luo Li's roots surged forward again, faster this time, crisscrossing in an intricate web designed to trap him. But Yan Jin remained focused, his every movement precise. He rolled under one root, flipped over another, and fired another shot mid-spin. The arrow grazed Luo Li's cheek, drawing a thin line of blood.
Her eyes flashed with irritation. She summoned more of her power, and the ground beneath them rumbled. The lotus roots tore through the floor, multiplying as they spread in all directions, turning the battlefield into a living maze. Yan Jin was running out of space to maneuver.
But instead of retreating, he advanced.
He leapt into the air, high above the twisting roots, and fired three arrows in rapid succession. Each arrow split into multiple projectiles, raining down on Luo Li from all angles. She summoned a dome of lotus petals around her, blocking the barrage, but cracks appeared in her defense. Yan Jin's power was relentless.
