"Watch out!"
Su Lun raised his halberd before I could finish my sentence. His halberd glowed brightly, and a golden light engulfed the entire hall. Before the halberd even hit the ground, an invisible wave of energy crashed down on me like a tidal wave, shattering the stone tiles on the floor. I was the first to bear the brunt of the attack, and the strengthened Brilliant Light Slash hit me squarely!
"Bang!"
My body shuddered violently as I stumbled backward as if I had been hit by a heavy blow. My HP had dropped by over 2 million. Su Lun was just too strong right now. He was on a completely different level from me.
… …
I had to block him even if I couldn't. There was no way out for me!
Whoosh!
A gust of wind blew past me, and I grabbed Su Lun's halberd. Then, I activated Disarm!
"You damned brat!"
Su Lun roared as he swung his fists and used Barrier Break. He was so fast that I lost another 1.2 million HP. How could he deal so much damage with his bare hands? This bastard is way too OP!
I spread my palm and covered Su Lun's chest with it. Then, I chanted the God Binding Art!
It was a success. My success rate against Divine Rank bosses had increased by leaps and bounds after I became a god. God Binding Art actually had a decent success rate against Divine Rank bosses! This was great!
Su Lun roared angrily as he tried to retaliate with his halberd, but he couldn't break free no matter how hard he tried.
The Xuanyuan Sword buzzed as I executed War Crush + Burning Blade Slash combo. The boss's HP was over 3 million, but I also healed myself quite a bit. The 15 seconds of God Binding Art had allowed me to fully recover my HP, and I had dealt at least 10 million damage. Unfortunately for Su Lun, his HP was just too high.
… …
"I'm going to tear you into a million pieces! I swear, you traitor!"
Su Lun roared as he entered a berserk state. His halberd trembled as bolts of lightning shot out of it. "Pa Pa Pa", he attacked me with the strength of a thousand kilograms, forcing me to retreat. Then, he followed up with a Brilliant Light Slash. In the blink of an eye, I only had a third of my health left.
I waved my arm and activated Soaring Cloud's [Profound Armor]. My defense increased by 300% as I forcefully clashed with Su Lun. Rays of light shot through the air as the two God Tier experts clashed against each other. Their swords and halberds left deep grooves in the ground. However, this state couldn't be maintained for long. After the 15 seconds of [Profound Armor]'s effect wore off, Su Lun suddenly roared arrogantly. He grabbed my neck and thrust his halberd!
"Puchi!"
I was pierced through! The Dragon Suppressing Armor and Battle Qi Astral Wind finally crumbled under the boss's attack. Blood gushed out like a fountain, and a huge damage number flew up.
“1723734！”
Oh no!
I frowned. Su Lun's attacks were extremely hasty, and he didn't give me any chance to counterattack or heal myself at all. In fact, my Mad God Charge was shattered by Su Lun's punch just as it was charging up!
Right at this moment, a cold arrow pierced Su Lun's forehead. The Starlight Tail Feather trembled, and Su Lun immediately fell into a temporary state of dizziness.
"Ugh …" I let out a sigh of relief and shouted, "Well done, Aodan!"
A girl's laughter came from the distance. "Be careful, this undead swordsman is very strong!"
"Mn!"
I raised the Xuanyuan Sword and used the Xuanyuan Art to recover 70% of my HP. At the same time, the moment the Xuanyuan Art's effect disappeared, I used Mad God's Charge and knocked Su Lun back a dozen steps. He was stunned again. My sword slashed at Su Lun, and he only had 7% HP left. Slowly but surely, I kept hacking at the wound on his arm. It wasn't long before the halberd-wielding arm was only connected to his body by a sliver of flesh and blood.
"That's it! Well done!" Aodan said with a smile.
The Xuanyuan Sword shone brightly, and the power of the Holy Way kept attacking me. I suddenly pressed down on the hilt and growled, "Break!"
"Crack!"
Su Lun's right arm was cut off at the shoulder, and the halberd fell to the ground with a clang. It trembled slightly, and the system immediately notified me that Su Lun's Attack had been reduced by 50% due to great damage. I let out a sigh of relief. Finally, I didn't have to die to Su Lun's halberd. A scholar who had been away for three days had to be looked at in a new light. His current strength was definitely a fatal threat to me. After nearly five hits, I only had 5% HP left. If Aodan hadn't helped me, I probably would've died already!
… …
Black blood splattered on the ground. Su Lun's only arm remained, but his eyes grew more and more sinister. He roared and punched my Azure Dragon Shield with his iron fist, shouting, "Boy, I'm going to kill you! You're the greatest humiliation of my life! I'm going to kill you and show you the true law of the undead!"
"Pu!"
The Xuanyuan Sword abruptly stabbed into Su Lun's chest, and I pushed the blade forward. At the same time, I growled, "Tell me, where is Xinran?
Where is Xinran?!! "
Su Lun smiled and lowered his arm. "I told you, Xinran has fallen into the fifth level of the Purgatory of Purgatory. She's turned into dust by the Purgatory Wind. What, are you still not satisfied?"
I twisted my wrist and cut his organs. Su Lun immediately screamed in pain. Even an Asura God couldn't withstand this kind of torture.
"Where is Xinran?!"
I asked through gritted teeth, my voice bordering on begging.
Thud!
Suren grabbed my hand and pulled both me and his sword closer to him. He laughed loudly and said, "Xinran is dead, hahaha! She died to the wraiths' attacks, hahaha! Just give up, you'll never see her again. Even if you kill me, you'll never find Xinran. I'm the winner, hahaha …"
"Winner my ass …"
I gritted my teeth and drank a Rank 14 Health Potion. Then, I shook my arm and activated Purple Dragon Howl. The Xuanyuan Sword trembled violently, and the energy of Purple Dragon Howl exploded inside Su Lun's body. Su Lun's body was torn to pieces in almost an instant. At the same time, there was a flash of golden light, and I leveled up to 258. Su Lun's body exploded, and he dropped a lot of items.
… …
"Xinran …"
I slowly knelt to the ground while Purple Dragon Howl was still weak. My arm was covered in blood. This battle had been terrible.
Behind me, Aodan slowly walked up to me and placed a small hand on my shoulder. She said softly, "Don't worry, the Wind Singer's soul fragment isn't here. She definitely didn't die here, and she's not on this plane. We can't sense her divine power because we're on different planes. Let's continue to the fifth floor. Maybe we'll sense her aura the moment we enter …"
I nodded and rose to my feet. I wanted to collect the items that Su Lun had dropped. I wondered what this long-lost teacher of mine had given me.
There were a few pieces of equipment lying quietly on the rotten ground. My heartbeat sped up slightly. Su Lun was a Low God, and with my 139 Luck, it was only natural that he would drop a divine item, right?
At the current stage of the game, Archean and Ancient Immortal-grade items were everywhere, but divine items were still very rare. Even Lower Divine Weapons were very rare. Basically, all top-tier players were chasing after Lower Divine Weapons. Of course, it would be even better if they dropped Cambrian, Ancient Netherworld, or Ancient Divine Weapons...
There was a halberd surrounded by flowing cyan light. It was the one Su Lun had used. There was also a set of armor that glowed with a faint scarlet light. It looked a bit like an Ancient Divine Dragon. Finally, there was a dazzling ring. Hmm, let's take a look at the halberd first. Su Lun's weapon was most likely a good one. I grabbed the halberd and felt a burning energy enter my body. It was definitely a good one.

Tsk tsk, it was actually a Middle Divine Weapon. It was extremely powerful, and its attack power and damage output were even higher than Battle Axe Brilliant Sun. Mn, if Brilliant Sun was given to High Fighting Spirits, then this Green Peak Halberd would be extremely suitable for Li Chengfeng. A divine weapon that ranked even higher than the unevolved Twelve Divine Weapons, where else could he find one?
I continued to look at the crimson armor. It was brimming with killing intent, and wisps of flames swirled around it. When I touched it, I felt a burning power surge into my body. Hmm, it's still amazing, isn't it?
I waved my hand over the armor, and its stats appeared in front of me. Fuck, it really didn't disappoint. Even though Suren was a shameless and despicable scumbag, his drop rate was absolutely amazing.

… …
I couldn't contain my joy. My armor had finally appeared!
Although the Dragon Suppressing Armor was a Saint-grade item, its level was too low, and it leaned toward defense. What I needed the most was attack power and max HP, and this Divine Oracle Crimson Dragon Armor just so happened to meet all of my requirements!
There was no need to say anything else, so I swapped it out immediately. My HP and stats skyrocketed, and a burning sensation seeped into my body. In the blink of an eye, I felt like the Crimson Dragon Armor had become one with me.
