Feng Yuchen chased after the red player in front of him and gradually arrived at a wider corridor. This place seemed to be slightly away from the BOSS 'room.
At this moment, the red player stopped and took out a strange snake-shaped sword. The snake-shaped sword was covered with a layer of purple light. This was a demonic sword that he had created using a special item. It had the ability to poison people and was very powerful. It was considered his trump card. As the leader of an independent guild, Feng Yuchen's ability was still recognized because the red player was not arrogant enough to ignore Feng Yuchen.
Feng Yuchen also took out his Mercury Sword and was ready to fight. He was not arrogant enough to think that no one was his match. In this world where killing monsters could increase one's level, his powerful attributes could only play a little role in the early stages of the game. As the players' attributes became stronger in the later stages, his little attributes were not enough to give him much confidence.
"Here, I'll tell you my name first. Don't die without knowing my name."
The red player held the snake-shaped sword horizontally in front of his eyes and said, "Remember, my name is — Duan Xinglang. I have a famous title in the world of assassins, Snake Lord. Hehe, Mr. Orochimaru from 'Naruto' is my idol."
Snake Lord — Duan Xinglang?
Feng Yuchen could not help but curl his lips. Orochimaru, tsk …
"I'm also a mercenary in real life. Although I'm not as famous as him, hehe, I'm not weak either. Although I've never fought with you before …"
Duan Xinglang's body disappeared in an instant as he spoke. Then, his feet stepped on the ground in a strange way like a lightning dance. It was unpredictable, and his real figure could not be seen at all. Soon, Duan Xinglang appeared in front of Feng Yuchen, and the snake-shaped sword in his hand stabbed towards Feng Yuchen's throat at a tricky angle …
[Dispelling the Clouds]!!
Feng Yuchen wielded the Mercury Sword and quickly blocked Duan Xinglang's stab, but …
"Pfft …"
When Duan Xinglang saw Feng Yuchen's reaction, he sneered in his heart. The Snake-Shaped Sword followed the Quicksilver Sword's parry and turned around to stab Feng Yuchen's shoulder, leaving a bloody hole …
"Hiss …"
Feng Yuchen sucked in a breath of cold air. The pain of an unlimited player was set to 100%. The intense pain on his shoulder almost made him drop the sword in his hand. Immediately, cold sweat dripped down his back. Duan Xinglang's attack method was too strange. It could only be said that his sword skills were endless, and in an instant, he had injured Feng Yuchen.
"Hehe, die, you're just so-so!"
The Snake-Shaped Sword in Duan Xinglang's hand once again stabbed towards Feng Yuchen's eyes like a venomous snake!
Feng Yuchen instantly activated the Sharingan ability, and his head moved in an instant. At the same time, he gritted his teeth and endured the injury on his shoulder to counterattack Duan Xinglang. The Quicksilver Sword in his hand quickly tapped the void three times in a row. One sword repelled the Snake-Shaped Sword, and two swords attacked Duan Xinglang's body from both sides. However, one of the swords was dodged, and only one stabbed Duan Xinglang's chest …
“！！！”
Duan Xinglang quickly retreated, and his footwork moved at lightning speed. What shocked him was that Feng Yuchen's agility had reached the limit in an instant. Not only did he dodge his attack, but he also counterattacked. How is this possible?
Was he hiding his strength before?
"Phew …"
Fengyu Chen panted heavily. He had truly been scared out of his wits just now. This red player's attacks were simply too unpredictable. Moreover, they were incredibly fast. This was the first time that Fengyu Chen had felt so close to death. If he hadn't activated his Sharingan in time and predicted Duan Xinglang's attack trajectory with the Eyes of Insight, he would've been dead for sure ….
What was more serious was that Feng Yuchen felt that his shoulder was a little numb, and his arm was not flexible. This was really painful. If his arm couldn't react in time, how could he fight back?
Duan Xinglang looked at Feng Yuchen's frown, and suddenly sneered and said, "My attack is not an ordinary attack. It's poisonous, and it will paralyze the nerves. Your hand is temporarily disabled. Although I don't know how you suddenly have such a fast reaction, you can't fight back now. She doesn't need to do anything, I will kill you here!"
Feng Yuchen didn't refute. His arm was numb, and the poison had already begun to invade his body. If he continued to fight like this, he would definitely die …
It seemed that this batch of unlimited players was a lot stronger. Did the system do something to the Limitless players? Did it see that he was living too comfortably, so it gave him some trouble? From the cloaked loli to the current Snake Lord Duan Xinglang, they were all mercenaries. Are you kidding me? They were all dangerous people. But then again, if they weren't mercenaries, they wouldn't have chosen red players.
But it didn't matter. The key was to solve the current predicament. It was obvious that with Duan Xinglang's strength, Asuna wasn't his opponent. Maybe they would both die here. Could it be …
At this moment, Feng Yuchen couldn't help but think of his other ability. After he broke through the 30th floor, he obtained the Quicksilver Sword and a title from the system, [Boss Ruler]. After killing 30 bosses, he would obtain the title [Boss Ruler].
[Boss Ruler]: Strength + 20, damage to Elite and Lord tier monsters + 50%.
Naturally, this title was not very special. However, the + 20 Strength had changed Fengyu Chen's rank. His Strength had reached 127, and his rank had advanced to the Silver Low Rank. He now had one more special stage.
Stage Characteristic: [Elemental Energy]. One of the fire, ice, wind, earth, thunder, darkness, light, water, and other attributes will be born. You can use Elemental Energy.
As for Fengyu Chen, he had awakened the power of frost, so he was able to use frost power.
Although Feng Yuchen hadn't used Elemental Energy before, it wasn't the time to use it. It was the time to use it. Other than that, Feng Yuchen didn't have any other Elemental Energy that he could use.
In an instant, Feng Yuchen closed his eyes and activated the Healing Energy in his body. He healed the injury on his shoulder. The Middle Bronze rank's Stage Characteristic [Healing Energy] could consume energy to heal injuries on the body. Then, he activated the Elemental Energy – Frost!
After activating the Frost Elemental Energy, Feng Yuchen felt his body become cold. It wasn't cold, but refreshing. Moreover, the surrounding snow mountains didn't affect his body much. A trace of Frost Energy was emitted from his body!
Duan Xinglang saw the change in Feng Yuchen. In an instant, Feng Yuchen's injuries were healed. He didn't drink any healing potions, but he suddenly recovered. How was that possible?
Duan Xinglang hadn't broken through the Middle Bronze rank yet, so he naturally didn't understand the Stage Characteristic.
However, Duan Xinglang wasn't too surprised. He speculated that Feng Yuchen's ability couldn't be maintained forever. There must be a limit, but this wasn't what he cared about …
What Duan Xinglang cared about was the change in Feng Yuchen's aura. A cold aura was emitted from his body. Duan Xinglang didn't know if his eyes were playing tricks on him …
Everything was strange, which made Duan Xinglang unable to attack for a moment.
As time passed, Duan Xinglang didn't attack, but Feng Yuchen was about to start attacking. Because he was consuming energy to use Frost Energy. Healing the injuries on his body just now consumed a part of his energy, and using Sharingan consumed another part of his energy. Moreover, Sharingan was continuously consumed. Now that he used Frost Energy, Feng Yuchen found that the Elemental Energy consumption was not just a little bit, but it was also very fast …
