Time slowly ticked by.
After the first few moves, Li Shuyi found it easier to fight the Overlord Boa Constrictor.
After all, Li Shuyi's strength had increased by more than 30% after the two passive skills were stacked. The acceleration effect of the shoes had long expired, but with Li Shuyi's current agility, running speed, and reaction speed were faster than before!
Although the Overlord Boa Constrictor was ferocious, it couldn't even touch Li Shuyi's clothes.
Li Shuyi was like a player in the game of Yamaguchi from the Common Era, who took advantage of the bug to fight the boss alone. He was basically unharmed, but the boss's HP was dropping too slowly …
It couldn't be helped. The Overlord Boa Constrictor had high damage reduction and high HP recovery speed. If it were an Elite class with weak DPS, they might still have full HP after fighting the boss for a long time.
Being able to penetrate the Overlord Boa Constrictor's defense and reduce its HP showed Li Shuyi's strong DPS ability.
Of course, although Li Shuyi was unharmed, every step of the battle was thrilling. The Overlord Boa Constrictor was big and clumsy, so it was difficult for it to hit the nimble Li Shuyi. However, if it hit Li Shuyi once, she would be half-dead and enter a Wounded Stun state. The Overlord Boa Constrictor's continuous attacks would make her lose her chance to breathe …
In such a difficult battle, Li Shuyi was slowly verifying the Elven Swordsmanship that she had learned. She had reached Level 9, and the bottleneck of her Swordsmanship Proficiency was finally loosened.
Esvan, who was beside her, had been watching Li Shuyi's battle. Occasionally, he would speak. When Li Shuyi was taking a breather, he would talk about the close-combat techniques of Sword Singers and point out some of the shortcomings of Li Shuyi's previous battles.
Li Shuyi listened attentively and learned earnestly. She could feel her improvement. Every time she seemed to understand something, she would be greeted with a delightful notification like "Your Advanced Skill: Single-handed Swordsmanship Proficiency has increased …".
After Li Shuyi gradually entered the zone, he decided to temporarily block the notifications from the Spirit Realm's rules and immerse himself in the thrilling battle of the giant python.
Bai Xiaowen and the Skeletal Fiend Arcane Master were also paying close attention to the battle. Once Li Shuyi was controlled, Bai Xiaowen would immediately control the Skeletal Fiend Arcane Master to release Li Shuyi.
Although Li Shuyi could also eat some special food to remove the CC, why not save it for recovery food, such as food that could restore HP and MP? One had to know that this was a long war of attrition.
Finally, the Overlord Python couldn't take it anymore. It lifted its thick head and glared at Li Shuyi.
Under the Coiling Posture, the colorful python pattern's active effect was activated.
However, Li Shuyi, who was immersed in the battle, abruptly activated the accessory's additional skill, Wrath of the Monarch. His speed increased explosively, and he jumped behind the Overlord Python like a sharp arrow.
Thanks to Bai Xiaowen's insight, Li Shuyi knew that the colorful python pattern's active effect was limited to the area in front of the giant python, so he beautifully dodged the skill.
Bai Xiaowen swallowed the word "nice" back into his stomach. He had a tacit understanding with Li Shuyi, so he naturally saw through Li Shuyi's current state. It was best to let her perform on her own and not disturb her.
Even when Esvan wanted to speak again, Bai Xiaowen waved his hand and shook his head. The former quickly understood and shut his mouth.
The Overlord Python's HP and Li Shuyi's stamina were slowly being depleted.
Towards the end of the battle, the light yellow crystal on the Overlord Python's body was mottled, and there were large and small bleeding spots all over its body. Li Shuyi was already panting, and his face was a little pale. This was a sign that he had exhausted too much of his stamina.
Li Shuyi took advantage of the gap and drank a barrel of ale to recover his stamina.
Now, it was a battle of willpower. The giant python's body was constantly bleeding, and it depended on whether its HP was depleted first, or if Li Shuyi's stamina was damaged first.
If his stamina was damaged, he would not be able to maintain his agile movements and extremely fast movement speed. This would increase the probability of being hit by the giant python, and the danger would increase significantly. When that happened, Bai Xiaowen would not be able to sit back and watch.
In the end, when the Overlord Python fell to the ground, Li Shuyi was still desperately attacking with his two swords.
"Alright, Shuyi, it's over."
Bai Xiaowen's voice rang out.
Li Shuyi looked up blankly and saw the giant python's corpse lying in front of him. "I … I won?"
"Yes, you won."
Bai Xiaowen smiled. "Congratulations, you have completed the achievement of single-handedly killing a Level-10 Rare Boss … almost unscathed." This sentence was said in the team channel.
Li Shuyi's HP had decreased by about one-third. It was hard to believe that this loss of HP was accumulated from the "accidental" damage caused by the giant python's collision. The giant python itself did not even hit Li Shuyi once … Of course, with the Overlord Python's large size and high strength, it would have taken more than one-third of its HP if it had really hit him.
Li Shuyi looked at his personal interface and said happily in the team channel, "My swordsmanship specialty has finally reached Level-10!"
"Great, the first step is finally completed."
Bai Xiaowen gave him a thumbs up. "Take a look at the second step of the Awakening Skill Mission."
Li Shuyi closed his eyes slightly and then quickly opened them with a strange expression. "That … I have completed the second step."
The second step of Li Shuyi's Awakening Skill Mission was to "single-handedly kill a Level-10 Rare Boss."
The so-called single-handedly kill meant that there was no external help … Not to mention healing, there was not even a buff.
Bai Xiaowen said in surprise, "That's not right … After each step of the Awakening Skill Mission is completed, there will be a prompt indicating whether to proceed to the next step. If you don't confirm, will the rules of the Spiritual Realm automatically proceed to the next step? "
Li Shuyi wiped the fine sweat on his forehead and said with a smile, "During the battle, I blocked all the prompts from the Spiritual Realm … Maybe the Spiritual Realm's prompts meant that I agreed to it? Speaking of which, no one would choose to reject such an option … "
"Yes, that should be the case. For continuous missions, if there is no response within a certain period of time, it will automatically proceed to the next step. "Bai Xiaowen nodded and said," Then you should have received the prompt indicating whether to proceed to the third step. Take a look at the third step and see what it is. "
Li Shuyi closed his eyes again and immediately opened them. She shared the mission prompt with Bai Xiaowen.
"Step III of the Awakening Skill Mission: Go to the Orc Kingdom of Du Oga and defeat the Shadow Blade Grand Swordsman in the Ring of Glory."
There were two more things to take note of, which were roughly the same as what Bai Xiaowen had received before. One was "If this exploration is not completed, the priority of matching tickets to the Blacktide Plane will increase by one." The other was "If the mission cannot be completed due to force majeure, the awakening skill will be regenerated after three explorations."
