Its name was Lanton's Omen!
Effect: At the start of combat, all allies within one li of the wielder gain a 20% damage reduction that lasts until the end of the battle.
"Uh... damage reduction?"
Xiao Chen read the description and couldn't help but frown. 'I don't think this thing will be very useful in actual combat.'
Magical Combat between Cultivators was different from sparring between Martial Artists.
It was rarely a slugfest of trading blows to see who would collapse first.
If an enemy's attack was blocked by his Spiritual Qi or Defense Magic, then this damage reduction seemed useless.
If an enemy's attack wasn't blocked and wounded him directly, he would still be injured even with a 20% damage reduction.
'Something's not right. It can't be this useless, can it?'
Xiao Chen wondered if he was overthinking it. Perhaps this damage reduction simply weakened the enemy's damage by 20%.
That would be equivalent to increasing his allies' defensive capabilities by 20%.
