It was said that the Hellish Spearfiend was first discovered near a B-grade foothold called Hell in the No. 2 safety zone. That was why it was named that way.
Lin Huang was not familiar with such a monster. There were more than 200,000 types of monsters in the monster guide. He had only read the ones that he was interested in and he could only recognize less than 30,000 of them. As for the ones that he could remember in detail, there were only about 10,000 of them.
Before last night, Lin Huang did not even know how the Hellish Spearfiend looked like. It was only before he went to bed that he read the monster guide that he had downloaded earlier.
The Hellish Spearfiend was a humanoid demon with high attack power. Not only was it powerful in close combat, it was also powerful in long-distance attacks. The only weakness was that it was not as powerful as the Molten Dragon and the Fire Phoenix. All in all, it was a monster with very strong overall strength. Among the monsters of the same tier, it was definitely one of the top ones.
It was difficult to kill such a monster directly. Lin Huang relied on the Punishment Chain from the Sanguine Skeletal Spirit. Once the Punishment Chain was done, the battle would basically be over.
Sitting on the Alexandrian Eagle's back, Lin Huang soon found the specific location that Bloody had given him and saw the Hellish Spearfiend.
It was a humanoid monster that was about 2.5 meters tall. Its entire body was covered in thick silver armor, including its head. There were two huge silver horns on the top of the silver helmet on its head. Only the eyes of the helmet were exposed. From afar, it was pitch black as if there was nothing inside the armor.
The most unique part was the spear. It was different from the human weapons that Lin Huang had seen before. The spear was at least three meters long and it was completely black. The most unique part was that the spear looked like a giant umbrella that was closed. Besides the handle, the entire spear was cone-shaped. The thickest part of the spear was more than twice the size of Lin Huang's thigh. The part above the bottom of the spear seemed to be a hollow hole-like structure. These two parts occupied one-third of the length of the spear, and further up was a spiral cone. It looked a bit like a screw that had been magnified nearly a hundred times, but it was obviously much sharper than a screw.
Just as Lin Huang was sizing up the monster from high up in the sky, the Hellish Spearfiend seemed to have sensed something. It suddenly raised its head and looked in Lin Huang's direction. Two scarlet spots lit up where its originally pitch-black eyes should have been.
It was expected that he would be discovered. Lin Huang stared at the Hellish Spearfiend in mid-air with a burning gaze.
Suddenly, the Hellish Spearfiend made his move. He leaped into the air and charged towards Lin Huang.
Without hesitation, Lin Huang urged the Alexandrian Eagle to turn around and flee. He had to lead the enemy to the target location.
The Hellish Spearfiend was getting closer and closer. Fortunately, the lava lake was not far away. In less than half a minute, the Alexandrian Eagle arrived at its destination and quickly landed.
Seeing that the Alexandrian Eagle had returned with the silver-armored Hellish Spearfiend behind it, Li Lang was slightly nervous. However, he remained standing at the same spot.
The Alexandrian Eagle landed less than ten meters away from him and was then recalled by Lin Huang.
The Hellish Spearfiend landed as well. He only took a glance at Li Lang before he attacked Lin Huang without hesitation. Obviously, to him, Lin Huang was a bigger threat.
The place where he landed was less than twenty meters away from Lin Huang. With just one step, the tip of the spear in his hand was already in front of Lin Huang. It was only one or two meters away from penetrating Lin Huang's chest.
Lin Huang did not panic at all. He stretched out his left palm and a black barrier suddenly formed, blocking the spear's momentum. The Vampire Particles formed on his back and turned into a blood-red long blade. It drew an arc in the air, bypassing the barrier and slashing towards his opponent.
The Hellish Spearfiend was slightly surprised that his attack was blocked. Just as he was about to increase his strength, he saw a blood-red glow shooting towards him. He immediately retreated.
From the Hellish Spearfiend's perspective, the human in front of him did not have a strong aura. However, there was a strange smell on his body, as if he had killed a strong monster. The smell was mixed with many other smells, making it hard for him to identify the monster that his opponent had killed. However, this alone was enough for him to be vigilant.
Therefore, the Hellish Spearfiend chose to dodge instead of fighting back when his opponent launched an attack.
As the dark barrier dispersed, the Hellish Spearfiend saw Lin Huang's abnormal state.
His eyes had turned blood-red and there was a sharp blade formed by an abnormal energy on his back. He did not look like a human at all.
The Hellish Spearfiend stood more than 20 meters away and started to check out Lin Huang. He was not sure if his opponent was a human.
Seeing the Hellish Spearfiend's reaction, Lin Huang smirked. Three more blood-red wings began to grow on his back.
His Vampire Particles could transform into any form. However, he chose wings this time as he was most familiar with this form.
As soon as all four wings grew, Lin Huang summoned his sword relic.
He activated his Seraphic Speed and Thunder Steps almost at the same time. He then dashed towards the Hellish Spearfiend.
The Hellish Spearfiend's close combat ability was not weak. However, Lin Huang did not have many long-distance attacks. Therefore, he chose to fight close combat, which was his forte.
The Hellish Spearfiend's ability was on par with the Fiery Swordfiend. However, the high temperature of the Fiery Swordfiend's sword could restrain Lin Huang's close combat ability. However, the Hellish Spearfiend did not have such an ability. Therefore, Lin Huang boldly chose to fight close combat.
Lin Huang took a step forward and instantly appeared less than two meters away from the Hellish Spearfiend. From Li Lang's perspective, it seemed like the distance between them had shortened. However, it was actually an illusion caused by Lin Huang's speed that surpassed his visual ability.
As soon as he stepped into the attack range, Lin Huang performed Thunder Sting without hesitation. Layers of sword shadows appeared in the air.
Extreme speed coupled with the fastest sword skill.
In just one second, Lin Huang had performed 58 consecutive slashes. As he fought against the Hellish Spearfiend, he had broken through his limit of 46 slashes per second when he was practicing.
So fast!
That was the first impression that the Hellish Spearfiend had of Lin Huang. No matter if it was his movement skill or his sword skill, Lin Huang's speed had reached the standard of a crimson flame-level.
However, it did not stop it from defending with its spear as its speed was on par with Lin Huang's.
It quickly defended with its spear. The spear was like a giant shield, blocking all of Lin Huang's slashes.
His strength was not weak!
That was the second comment that flashed through the Hellish Spearfiend's mind.
Each of Lin Huang's slashes was no less powerful than the attack of a white flame-level. Dozens of slashes rained down one after another, almost forming a single blade. He was almost unable to block it. If it were to receive another one or two slashes, the spear in its hand would probably fall out of its hand. Therefore, after receiving this wave of attacks, he immediately chose to retreat.
"This guy's strength is indeed weak. The consecutive slashes should be close to breaking my defense. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so eager to distance himself from me." Seeing the Hellish Spearfiend's reaction, Lin Huang smirked again. He had already found out the limit of the Hellish Spearfiend's defense.
This greatly boosted his confidence. He had been more worried about whether he could break through his opponent's defense without using Worldly Purification. Now, the answer to his question was clear.
"Again!" Lin Huang shouted and ran towards the Hellish Spearfiend again.
