Taking advantage of Qin Hui's unstable footing and stunned by the lightning strike, Bai Xiaowen controlled the Wrath Claw to suppress him.
However, Qin Hui had been through hundreds of battles, so he immediately came to his senses. If he was crushed by this giant wolf, the consequences would be dire. Even if he didn't die, he would lose a layer of skin.
Immediately, Qin Hui took a deep breath and channeled his remaining Blood God Sutra True Qi into his Qinggong, Blood Shadow Perplexing Track. Leaving behind a bloody shadow, he dashed forward again.
However, this time, the distance he covered was very short, only about three meters. He was still within the Butcher's melee range and was still affected by the decaying toxin.
Qin Hui felt a little tired. Without the protection of his internal energy, the decaying toxin was slowly but surely eating away at his HP. At this point, he could only rely on his basic attributes to fight. It was difficult for him to use Inverse Blood Seal and Blood Shadow Perplexing Track.
Even the last Blood Shadow Perplexing Track couldn't save Qin Hui's life. At this point, he was equivalent to an Agility-based Boss from another dimension. Moreover, he was a Boss that didn't have any toughness skills or extra HP, so he couldn't use any skills.
If there was anything worth praising, it would be Qin Hui's melee combat specialty. His passive skill, Technique Master, didn't require True Qi to use.
However, this advantage wasn't enough to save his life. As Bai Xiaowen cast the talisman, Qiao Rui joined the battle again and activated Mind Cage. The summoned creatures and Li Shuyi began to attack furiously.
Qin Hui's remaining 400 HP only lasted for a few seconds before it was depleted. At the moment when he was about to die, Bai Xiaowen also gave the order to retreat. Han Xu and Li Shuyi retreated at the same time, leaving only the Butcher, Skeleton Warrior, and other creatures with low HP to hack Qin Hui to death.
"I don't accept this!"
Qin Hui roared at the sky. Using his remaining strength, he sent the Skeleton Warrior flying with a punch. Then, he bent his elbow and smashed the Butcher's fat belly.
The Skeleton Warrior exploded, and the Butcher died. Qin Hui was also slashed by the Skeleton Swordsman's iron blade. His HP was depleted, and he fell to the ground, dead!
The moment Qin Hui fell, the four members of the White Phoenix Squad also sat down powerlessly on the ground.
This battle was unprecedentedly tragic. Almost all of Bai Xiaowen's summoned creatures were killed. Han Xu and Li Shuyi, the two melee fighters, were also in danger many times. Bai Xiaowen had been maintaining Shared Life with the Butcher all this time, and his HP had dropped dangerously low.
The reason Bai Xiaowen maintained Life Sharing and shared the damage with Butcher was so that Butcher's rotting toxin could last longer. Qin Hui was the only one here, so Butcher's Slaughterhouse's passive HP regeneration was not effective.
After Qin Hui's True Qi was exhausted, Bai Xiaowen disconnected the life-sharing link. Otherwise, if Qin Hui had killed the Butcher with his final blow, Bai Xiaowen would have been killed as well.
"This Boss is so hard to defeat," Li Shuyi said.
"Yes, after all, it's a Level 10 Boss, and Qin Hui has cultivated the Bloodgod Mantra. I'm afraid it's a Rare Boss."
Bai Xiaowen did not want to destroy the team's confidence, so he analyzed, "A Level 10 Rare Boss should be equivalent to a Level 7 or 8 Lord. The Bosses in the Sword Song Realm all have cheats and are especially difficult to deal with. So, our squad was able to kill Qin Hui. Our strength has been verified. With our configuration, if we are well prepared, we have a high chance of defeating a Level 8 Lord in other realms. "
Hearing Bai Xiaowen's words, his teammates were relieved.
"Let's open the treasure chest first. This battle score is Level A, so we have three chances to draw cards. "Bai Xiaowen pressed his palm on the treasure chest and silently opened it. For the Awakened, opening treasure chests and drawing cards after a tiring battle was the best way to comfort themselves.
A brilliant golden light flashed, and a total of 48 Gold Cards were unfolded.
Li Shuyi said, "You guys draw. I was the one who opened the two Elders' treasure chests just now." She was already addicted to drawing cards.
Bai Xiaowen nodded and was the first to click on the Gold Card.
"You have obtained a special item: Bloodgod Mantra Rubbings."
It was a slightly dirty piece of animal skin. There were rows of tiny characters on it, and there were also pictures of the meridians of the human body.
[Bloodgod Mantra Rubbings: Special Item. After use, there is a chance to obtain a special skill: Bloodgod Mantra (Internal Strength).]
"Are we that lucky?" The three members of the White Phoenix Squad were all excited. Everyone had fully witnessed how strong the Bloodgod Mantra was, or rather, the cheat-like characteristics of Internal Strength. To put it bluntly, even if there was a chance to cultivate a second or third-rate Internal Strength in the Sword Song Realm, every Awakened would fight over it.
What's more, the status of the Bloodgod Mantra was no small matter. It was like the Nine Yin Sutra to the Legend of the Condor Heroes, and the Nine Yang Sutra to the Heavenly Sword and Dragon Saber. They were all top-notch skills in the realm.
"Don't be so excited. How can there be such a good thing?"
Bai Xiaowen shook his head helplessly and pointed at the small words at the back of the Bloodgod Mantra rubbings.
[Description: To cultivate the Bloodgod Mantra, you need to completely control the Qi and blood in your body, stop them from flowing, and experience the moment of life and death. Only then will there be a chance to succeed. If you don't have the ability to control Qi and blood, it is recommended to find someone who has mastered the Bloodgod Mantra and use it with their help and guidance.]
"In other words, people like us who know nothing about Internal Strength will not be able to cultivate the Bloodgod Mantra if we use this rubbings rashly," Bai Xiaowen said.
"By the way, Gu Yulian said that our meridians are all blocked, so we can't cultivate Internal Strength," Li Shuyi said.
Bai Xiaowen shook his head. "The description on this rubbings says that there is a chance to obtain a special skill: Bloodgod Mantra after use. This means that it has the ability to ignore the blocked meridians and allow us to learn Internal Strength. The real difficulty lies in the cultivation conditions. "
Correspondingly, if Bai Xiaowen did not obtain the rubbings, but opened the jade bed and found the original text of the Bloodgod Mantra engraved on it, he would definitely not be able to cultivate it successfully. This also involved the problem of "ownership" of the Spiritual Realm's treasures. The rubbings were spoils of war and were fundamentally different from the original text.
"Yes, if we want to stop the flow of Qi and blood, we'll become a dead person. How can we cultivate then?" Li Shuyi said, puzzled.
Bai Xiaowen said, "The rubbings have already given a hint to find someone who has mastered the Bloodgod Mantra to help guide the cultivation. I estimate that a martial artist who has mastered the Bloodgod Mantra has the ability to help others control Qi and blood and preserve their lives. "
"Then … in the Sword Song Plane, the only martial artist who has mastered the Bloodgod Mantra is probably Concubine Yin." Qiao Rui pondered for a moment. "It's probably very difficult to cultivate this secret art. It's probably more difficult than the S-rank elite side mission."
Bai Xiaowen nodded. "That's right. Let's not get our hopes up. First of all, finding Concubine Yin is a problem. She has been missing for several months. We can only stay in the Sword Song Plane for ten days. Secondly, even if we find Concubine Yin, what reason does she have to help us guide the cultivation? You know, she's not even willing to teach the Bloodgod Mantra to her only disciple, Gu Yulian. It can be seen that she's actually disgusted with this martial art. "
His teammates nodded silently. After the fierce battle with Qin Hui, everyone realized how abnormal the BOSS of the Sword Song Plane was. Concubine Yin was known as one of the Four Masters. She had the complete version of the Bloodgod Mantra. How many times stronger was she than Qin Hui? It was really too difficult to ask Concubine Yin for help.
However, this Bloodgod Mantra rubbings were the only chance for everyone to come into contact with internal strength. Bai Xiaowen put it away.
The second Gold Card was drawn by Han Xu. After opening it, a burst of green light flashed.
"Set, set, set …? G？”
Li Shuyi called out "set" three times before stopping abruptly. After the green light dissipated, what appeared in Han Xu's palm was a green crystal. There seemed to be wave-like energy rippling gently inside, and the sparkling green light was constantly changing.
[Flawless Green Source Crystal: Special treasure. After use, it can activate an A-rank awakening skill mission. Hint: Green Source Crystal can only activate an agility-type awakening skill mission. Please choose the user carefully.]
"Awakening skill?!"
Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi looked at each other, and both of them were pleasantly surprised.
"It actually dropped a Source Crystal. Our luck is too good," Qiao Rui said.
Han Xu had never heard of an Awakening Skill. He looked at the three of them with a dumbfounded expression.
Bai Xiaowen smiled and explained the meaning of an Awakening Skill, "My understanding of an Awakening Skill is a strengthened version of a skill. It's very powerful. In our previous plane world, the Aaron Plane, there was an Awakened Hero who used the Awakening Skill 'Windward Slash' to cut off one of the arms of a leader of the same level, directly crippling him. "
As he spoke, Bai Xiaowen tilted his head and looked at Qiao Rui, "But I only know the words' Awakening Skill '. Sister Qiao seems to know more?"
Qiao Rui shook his head slightly, "I don't know much. I only know some information about the Source Crystal."
"The Source Crystal is a special type of treasure. It is actually a quest item that helps Awakened Skill Awakening Skills. Everyone can see the description of the item."
"The Source Crystal is divided into four types. Red Source Crystals correspond to strength-type skills, green Source Crystals correspond to agility-type skills, yellow Source Crystals correspond to physique-type skills, and blue Source Crystals correspond to spiritual-type skills. "
"The same type of Source Crystal also has differences in quality. Take the agility-type green Source Crystal as an example. The 'Flawless' green Source Crystal we obtained this time is the highest level I know of. It can activate a skill awakening mission of the highest level, A +. Below the Flawless level, there are ordinary Green Source Crystals and Broken Green Source Crystals. These two types of Source Crystals can activate a skill awakening mission of the highest level, B + and C + respectively … "
"The highest level of awakening mission is A +?" Bai Xiaowen looked at the Flawless Green Source Crystal, "If I choose to use this Source Crystal, can I freely choose a B or C grade awakening mission?"
"Yes." Qiao Rui gave a definite answer.
Bai Xiaowen nodded, "Very good. This kind of Flawless Source Crystal can truly crush ordinary and broken grades."
Bai Xiaowen's meaning was very easy to understand. If the Flawless Source Crystal could only activate an A grade awakening mission, but not B or C grade awakening missions, it would undoubtedly be very disadvantageous for the weaker Awakened Hunters. On the contrary, it would be more practical to use a Source Crystal that was one grade lower.
"Then how are the strength-type, agility-type, physique-type, and spiritual-type skills differentiated?" Li Shuyi asked.
Qiao Rui replied, "On one hand, it depends on the damage bonus of the skill. It depends on the basic attribute. If it is a control-type skill, it depends on the basic attribute of the judgment. There is also the effect of the skill on attack speed, number of attacks, and critical hit. It is more complicated to explain. For example, Earth Splitter is a strength-type skill. Because the damage bonus attribute is strength, the knockback judgment also depends on the user's strength. On the other hand, your Triple Slash and Shadowless Slash are agility-type skills. "
There were no restrictions on the Awakened Hunters' choice of skills. Mages could learn Backstab, Assassins could learn Fireball. But no matter how they mixed it up, the skills themselves still had a clear position. Backstab, a critical hit skill, was an agility-type skill, most suitable for Assassins. Fireball, a spiritual-type skill, was most suitable for Mages.
Qiao Rui then explained that physique-type skills did not only refer to shields and damage reduction skills, but also support skills such as' Assist 'that absorbed damage for teammates.
Qiao Rui's understanding of the Source Crystal and awakening skills was limited to this. The more in-depth the process, the more likely it would be to violate the confidentiality rules. The family database would not explicitly record it.
Bai Xiaowen sighed with emotion and said, "That Awakened Gui Qie I met before said that he killed his Master in the Fuji Snow Mountain to cultivate his Awakening Skill. I thought he was a Japanese pervert, but now it seems that I misunderstood him. He must have been carrying out the awakening mission and asked to kill his master. That master should also be someone from the spiritual realm, not from Earth. "
Li Shuyi curled her lips and said, "Isn't it perverted to kill your master for the awakening mission?"
Bai Xiaowen smiled. Killing one's master was indeed difficult to accept, but in Japanese kendo culture, there was a saying that 'master and disciple fight to the death to pass on the essence of the sword'. Gui Qie might have killed his master, but he still called his master 'Master' and still respected him.
This Source Crystal was green, corresponding to an agility-type skill.
Of the four people present, only Li Shuyi had agility-type skills, such as Triple Slash, Shadowless Slash, and Poison Burst.
It should be noted that the awakening skills referred to the awakening of combat skills. The skills attached to equipment, such as Bai Xiaowen's Desert Eagle's' Continuous Shooting Mode ', were not included.
This Flawless Green Source Crystal was assigned to Li Shuyi.
Li Shuyi chose to use it. During the process, she received a notification from the spiritual realm's rules. She sent it to the team channel and shared it with her teammates.
"You used a special treasure: Flawless Green Source Crystal."
"The awakening mission is about to begin. Please choose the mission difficulty. You can choose: A, B, and C levels. "
Li Shuyi asked for Bai Xiaowen's advice and chose the A level. Then, she chose the A + level, which was the highest among the three levels.
"Mission difficulty determined. Please choose the combat skill you want to awaken. "
Sure enough, the spiritual realm's rules gave three options. Except for Brutal Charge, the other three combat skills were all candidates.
Bai Xiaowen thought for a moment. "Triple Slash is excluded. Poison Burst does not have the additional effect of strengthening the special LV, so it should also be excluded. Personally, I think Shadowless Slash is better. Of course, it depends on which skill you prefer. "
Li Shuyi, of course, had unreserved trust in Bai Xiaowen and chose Shadowless Slash.
"The A + level awakening mission: Shadowless Slash begins."
