Pleased with myself, I hurriedly raised my arm and channeled energy into it. In the next moment, a giant cyan blade appeared above the ice cave and slammed into Ziyu, dealing 1102 damage to him. I was just 40 yards away from the boss, but I could still use Dragon Slaying Slash. This was amazing!
Ziyu, the Level 140 boss, was finally enraged. He cursed loudly, but it was to no avail. I continued to attack him with Dragon Slaying Slash and slowly whittle away his HP. At the same time, I checked the Magic Consumables in my bag. Very good, I still had a few dozen stacks of high-level Magic Consumables.
Swoosh!
The enraged Ziyu suddenly thrust his sword forward, and a ray of purple light immediately shot toward me. It was a long-range attack!
Prepared for this, I quickly took a step back and widened the distance between me and the boss to 41 yards!
Swhoosh!
The purple sword light almost missed my nose and disappeared. The 40-yard range rule was effective against bosses as well. I was overjoyed. This meant that the possibility of killing the boss was infinite because I could keep attacking him with Dragon Slaying Slash. The boss couldn't hit me because he didn't have my high maneuverability, and he didn't know how to use a high-level tactic like aggro.
… …
I was happily throwing Dragon Slaying Slashes when Lin Yixin finally asked cautiously in the party channel, "Lu Chen, you're not dead yet?"
"Mn!"
I smiled. "I'm killing the boss right now, but it might take a little longer …"
"Oh, did you get the Frozen Earth set pieces?"
"I got them. Don't worry about it. Fans like to read:)"
I looked at the time and said, "It's getting late, Yiyi. Eat something and go to bed early. Maybe you'll see the message that I killed the boss when you log in tomorrow morning …"
"OMG, you're going to kill me all night?
Do you want to die … "
"I'm fine!"
"Mn, don't force yourself …"
"Mn."
… …
Not long after, Lin Yixin logged out of the game. She looked a little dejected. She had just reached Level 99, only to be killed back to Level 98 in the blink of an eye. It was a terrible feeling. Originally, Lin Yixin had a chance to become the second fourth-promotion player in the game, but now it looked like it was going to be a long shot. Wind City's Candlelight Shadow was already Level 99, and with his tenacity and determination, he wouldn't log out until he reached Level 100.
Three hours passed in the blink of an eye, and it was already three in the morning. I checked the boss's HP and saw that it still had 70% left. Damn, it looked like it would take me at least 10 hours to kill him. This boss was really annoying. Killing a Spirit-grade boss 40 levels above me was really too much for me. If I was Level 140, even with the same stats, I could definitely kill him in two hours!
To a certain extent, levels were crucial to any online game.
"Di!"
Suddenly, I received a message from He Yi: "Lu Chen, are you online?"
I was moved and immediately sent a call request.
"Eve, you're finally online?"
"Mn, everyone else is reading normally:!"
He Yi's tone was slightly reproachful. "It's already three or four in the morning in China. Why are you still online?
You're staying up late again … "
I smiled. "I can't help it. I'm fighting a boss right now, and I can't log out even if I want to. If I don't kill the boss, I'll have to die by myself."
"Oh?
What kind of boss is it … "
I shared my view so that He Yi could see the majestic General Ziyu inside the ice cave. She was immediately stunned. "OMG, a Level 140 boss?
And a Spirit Rank one at that. Lu Chen, how did you find such a high-level boss? And you can even solo it? What a great geographical advantage … "
I smiled. "When I was grinding at Dragonbone Mountain Range, I was ambushed by Gods of Destruction players and fell off a cliff. That's how I found this new map. If I can grind down the boss tonight, it'll be worth it. A high-level boss like that will definitely drop some amazing equipment!" I nodded my head and said, "That's right.
"Mn mn, do your best!"
He Yi said with a smile, "I haven't been online for a few days, and my level has fallen behind. I'm only Level 92. You're already Level 100. Never mind, I'm going to grind as well. I don't have any meetings today, so I can properly grind my levels. It's just that Mingyue and Beiming aren't here."
"They logged off to rest. It's important to maintain sleep time."
"Mn mn, I'm going to grind!"
"Go!"
"Um …" He Yi suddenly hesitated.
"What is it, Eve?" I asked with a smile.
He Yi's profile picture was as beautiful as ever inside the chat window. She blushed and asked with a smile, "I've been gone for so many days. Did you miss me?"
I nodded. "It's raining in Suzhou."
"Oh, I see. Fans also like to read:."
He Yi smiled, turned off the communicator and went to grind.
… …
I continued to focus on grinding this Level 140 boss's HP. It was too much effort!
A while later, I heard another beep. Murong Mingyue had come online and sent me a message: "Lu Chen, you're still online?
Fuck, you're fighting so hard … "
"It's nothing, I'm being held back by the boss. I can only log off after I kill him."
Murong Mingyue said, "You haven't logged off for a day. Tell me, what time can you log off? I'll prepare some food for you. Sigh, you really don't know how to take care of yourself …"
"Around 10. Thanks, sis …"
"Hmph hmph!"
Murong Mingyue didn't chat with me anymore. She probably went to grind with He Yi. Their team was a good combination. He Yi had good Defense, and both of them were good Attack. He Yi had the Soul Stealing Spear, so her Attack was pretty good, and Murong Mingyue's Hellish Rockfall was an OP skill.
… …
I checked the boss's HP and movements out of boredom, so I opened the official website to see if there were any new updates. As it turned out, there was a huge topic on the front page. The large image depicted two players in battle armor facing off against each other. One was me, and the other was Candlelight Shadow. There was a big blood-red "VS" in the middle of the image, and the main topic was a very shocking line of words — Falling Dust, Candlelight Shadow, who is the true Martial God?
I looked at the bottom of the page and saw a line of small words: "Last night, two major events happened in the China server. Candlelight Shadow was the first to ascend to Famous General and obtain the Famous General Skill Ghost God Prophecy, shocking the entire server. Less than an hour later, Sky City's Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand also became a Famous General and obtained the super powerful Famous General Skill Martial God. It's a super Encourage skill that increases attack power by 40%. In comparison, Candlelight Shadow, who is the" Martial God ", is in an awkward situation. Candlelight Shadow's guild, Candle Dragon, and Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand's guild, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls, are old enemies. Who will emerge victorious in the Conferred God Battle?
Between Candlelight Shadow and Falling Dust, who will ascend to the top of the China server and become the new Heavenly King? "
… …
I couldn't help but smile. Battles between gaming celebrities had always attracted the most attention, especially a CGL celebrity like me and Candlelight Shadow. It was a battle between two legendary experts, and it was enough to make any man's blood boil with excitement. Everyone else was just watching it like normal: "Who's going to win? Who's going to be the victor?"
When I clicked on the topic, I saw an analysis of Candlelight Shadow and me, including our levels, skills, equipment, and pets. My skills Pardon, Dragon Slaying Slash, Thousand Mirage Slash, Ghost Deity Armor, Desperate Gambit, Immortality, and Thunderous Charge were all listed. Even the Sky Obsidian Greedy Wolf's stats were listed. Candlelight Shadow's skills like Earth Shattering Slash, Rock Thrust, Blazing Purgatory Slash, and Wind and Cloud Domain were all listed. It was hard to imagine who knew us so well. Fuck, could it be an official leak?
If not, this civilian intelligence organization was way too powerful!
All kinds of opinions appeared in the following posts. It was very exciting — 1 (Player Invincible Divine Shield): Candlelight Shadow is righteous and resolute. He truly deserves the title of Martial God. During the later stages of Spirit of Grief, he led the heroes of the US server to the east and swept across the vassal states to the north. He trampled over half the continent and put his sword to New Sainthood City's throat. I will support Candlelight Shadow no matter what. He is the Martial God!
2 (Player Passing Smoke): In reality, most of Candlelight Shadow's achievements were won by Frivolous Scholar. If it wasn't for Frivolous Scholar, Seven-Star Lamp, and Lonely Grave opening up the situation, Candlelight Shadow wouldn't even have been able to get out of Clear Breeze City!
3 (Player Little Piglet): Hegemon Palace is the true king...
4 (Player Legendary Brave): In terms of mechanics, Falling Dust could easily suppress Candlelight Shadow at his peak. In terms of karma, Falling Dust is way better than Candlelight Shadow.
During the later stages of Spirit of Grief, Falling Dust fought to the death in the Nation War and guarded the entrance to Warsong Canyon for five hours. He faced thirty thousand Indian players without fear. How much courage does that take?
In order to repay the guild leader, From Water, Falling Dust dyed Silver Moon Valley with his blood. He fought against the Gods of Destruction Guild alone, founded the Bloody Mercenaries, and defended the honor of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls with his life. Falling Dust did everything a hot-blooded man could do. In my opinion, the real battle had only just begun. Heavenblessed's war was still too early.
5 (Player Jade Maiden Peak): What the hell is Hegemon Palace?
6 (Player Wind from a Cave): Wow, even the Dragon Warrior and Cold Wind Swordsman have appeared. Honey, come out and look at God...
… …
The real battle hadn't even begun, but the forums were already filled with smoke. Little Piglet and Legendary Brave weren't just fighting to the death in game, they were also engaged in a war of words on the forums. I had to admit that this kind of multitasking was very OP, and it made me sweat a little.
Now, the Top 15 players of Sky City's Heavenly Ranking had basically all been decided. Legendary Brave had joined Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls, and Little Piglet had become Hegemon Palace's hired thug. Originally, Pillar of Nirvana didn't have any powerful subordinates, but now that Little Piglet had joined Hegemon Palace, I was sure that a lot of strong people would join Hegemon Palace.
All in all, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls had 6 spots in the Top 15, Snowy Cathaya had 4, Warsky Alliance had 4, and Hegemon Palace had 1. The alliance of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls and Snowy Cathaya had the upper hand in the battle of the best players. However, just as Li Chengfeng said, the real battle had only just begun.
… …
I browsed the forums for a while and looked up some relevant information. After that, I returned to killing the boss.
When it was past 9 am, the boss's HP finally dropped to 3%. Another 10 minutes or so later, the boss's HP stopped at 1%, and its health bar was finally empty. This made me very excited, so I chomped down on a Magic Consumable and continued killing!
Ziyu was running around the gap in the zone. He was furious, but there was nothing he could do. He was stuck there and couldn't move at all.
Boom!
The Dragon Slaying Slash whistled through the air and finally ended Ziyu's obsession. His giant body collapsed to the ground, and countless stones, equipment, and items dropped from his body!
