In the blink of an eye, Cai'er had led her companions into the midst of the Black Knight's purple skeletons.
With the Black Knight's buff, the skeletons' strength had increased significantly. Cai'er's advancing speed had decreased drastically. The purple skeletons were much stronger than the skeletons from before, be it in terms of attack or resistance. Their combat skills were also stronger. Not only did Cai'er have to protect herself, but she also had to protect Long Haochen, who was on her back. Hence, she did not dare to advance too recklessly. Even so, the purple skeletons could only perish in front of her Grim Reaper Scythe. She was getting closer and closer to the Black Knight.
The Black Knight's eye sockets were filled with purplish-black soul flames. His gaze was locked onto Cai'er as he slowly retrieved the five-meter-long spear from his saddle.
The Black Knight was over three meters tall. In addition to the four-meter-long and two-meter-tall skeletal horse he was riding, he looked like a giant compared to Cai'er.
The purplish-black flames instantly rose on the spear, and the skeletal horse abruptly raised its hooves. In an instant, the air within the area enveloped by the purple light suddenly became viscous. Cai'er also clearly felt her body suddenly stiffen. Following that, the thousands of purple lights seemed to have found their source, merging into the spear in his hand like rivers running into the sea. The purple light flashed. Like a bolt of cold lightning, it stabbed straight at Cai'er.
So strong!
The moment the Black Knight made his move, the expressions of the Light of Dawn Monster Hunters changed. The aura emitted by this fellow had clearly reached the standard of a rank-9 powerhouse. Even if it was an early-stage rank-9, it was still a pure rank-9! Moreover, based on their experience fighting the Holy Guards, the strength of the Holy Guards could not be measured by their ranks. The strength of the Holy Guards could not be simply measured by their ranks. They possessed ancient martial skills that far surpassed experts of the same rank.
Cai'er didn't dodge. She had a partner behind her. If she dodged now, then Zhang Fangfang would be the first to bear the brunt.
But it was also at this moment that a golden figure rushed into the sky from her side. As it rose, it turned completely purple. Tens of thousands of lightning bolts descended and bombarded in all directions. It was Sima Xian's Purple Thunder Frenzy.
Sima Xian wasn't helping Cai Er resist the Black Knight's attack, but he was helping her get rid of the skeletons around her. She could face the Black Knight without any worries. This was the trust between the companions. They all believed that Cai'er would definitely be able to withstand the enemy's attack.
If it was Long Haochen facing such an attack from the Black Knight, there was no doubt that his Sun-moon Divine Snail Shield would immediately block in front of him.
But Cai'er wasn't Long Haochen. She didn't have such a strong defense. If she only defended passively, she wouldn't be able to withstand the attack that had reached the rank-9 level. As an assassin, her strongest point was her attack. Therefore, she could only fight back with an attack.
Cai'er took a step forward with her left foot. With this short step, a series of overlapping shadows appeared behind her. The Grim Reaper Scythe slashed forward. A gray crystal light gathered at the tip of the scythe and struck the dark purple light.
In an instant, the air seemed to have frozen, and a strange scene appeared. A series of afterimages appeared behind Cai 'er, and her whole body seemed to have become illusory, as if countless Cai' er were stacked on top of each other.
Then, the Grim Reaper Scythe in her hand lit up. In the gray crystal light, the purple light of the Black Knight was extinguished.
The Black Skeletons around Cai'er were all blasted away by the purple lightning. At this moment, there was only one enemy in front of her.
A huge figure rushed into the air. It was Sima Xian. He caught up with his Ball of Light in the air. He spread his spiritual wings and hovered in the air. The entire Ball of Light was glowing with purple light. Sima Xian 'chest was also glowing with a dazzling scarlet light.
Yang Wenzhao had replaced Sima Xian's position in time. He didn't expose any flaws to the team.
After blocking the Black Knight's attack, Cai'er's face was slightly pale. But she didn't stop. In a flash, she appeared in front of the Black Knight. She was so fast that it seemed like she had teleported. One must know that she was carrying Long Haochen on her back. But at this moment, it seemed that it didn't affect her speed at all.
The Black Knight's spear flashed, and suddenly, it turned into a sky full of light shadows that enveloped Cai'er. At the same time, a circle of dark purple light rippled from his body. The halo was only ten meters in diameter, but it seemed to have solidified on the ground. The purple light rose. The dark elements in the third floor of the Tower of Eternity suddenly surged towards him. It felt a little like Long Haochen's Knight's Charge Up. However, Long Haochen's Charge Up couldn't be moved, but the Black Knight wasn't affected. As long as his body didn't leave the range of the halo, the Charge Up would continue. It would make his combat power even more terrifying.
Cai'er acted as though she didn't see all of this. Facing the thousands of spear lights, Cai'er's body suddenly became illusory. The illusory figure was destroyed by the spear lights, and her real body had already appeared behind the Black Knight. The Grim Reaper Scythe brought up a gloomy gray light in the air, and went straight for the Black Knight's back.
The Black Knight didn't turn around, because it was too late. The end of the spear seemed to have eyes, and it pointed at the tip of the Grim Reaper Scythe.
Cai'er's body trembled violently. In terms of spiritual power, she naturally couldn't compete with her opponent.
However, the Black Spear was forcibly cut off by her Grim Reaper Scythe. What was more powerful was that layers of light blades burst out from the Grim Reaper Scythe like a lotus, and completely enveloped the Black Knight from behind, not giving him a chance to turn around.
The Dark Knight was also very valiant. He made a prompt decision and at the same time as he got off his Skeleton Horse and charged forward, a dark purple light shield suddenly appeared behind him.
The Grim Reaper Scythe's attack power was so terrifying that in the next second, the light shield had already shattered into pieces and disappeared. However, it still managed to buy some time for the Black Knight. He turned his body, and the spear in his hand swept behind him.
"Bang!" There was a muffled sound, and Cai'er's body was instantly swept away. It wasn't that she didn't want to dodge, but that she couldn't. The moment the Black Knight attacked, the surrounding air suddenly froze, and her speed was greatly reduced.
At that moment, there was a violent roar of thunder, and a purple light beam descended from the sky, blasting straight for the Black Knight.
Sima Xian's Purple Godly Thunder Cannon was already ready in the air, and he was waiting for the moment when the Black Knight turned around to reveal an opening.
He wasn't the only one who attacked. A loud and clear phoenix cry was hidden by the roar of thunder. The Blue Fire Phoenix floated up, and behind the purple lightning, it rushed towards the Black Knight.
Sima Xian and Lin Xin had already attacked with all their might. The Purple Godly Thunder Cannon and the Blue Fire Phoenix were two of their strongest attacks.
The Light of Dawn Monster Hunters would never fight alone. Cai'er had attracted most of the Black Knight's attention, so their attacks were naturally able to unleash their greatest power.
Compared to two years ago, Lin Xin's Blue Flame Phoenix had undergone an enormous change. First of all, its size was much smaller than before. When it spread its wings, it didn't even reach two meters, looking like a large bird. However, this Blue Fire Phoenix was much more beautiful than before. There were no flames rising from its body, and its entire body looked like a complete blue crystal sculpture. Three beautiful tail feathers rippled behind its back, and its entire body was covered in fine hair, as if it were a living creature. Its pair of eyes were shining, and filled with the fierceness of fire.
The Black Knight was indeed powerful. After sweeping away Cai'er, he attacked directly. The skeleton horse beneath him suddenly raised its front hooves, and its upper body rose up. At the same time, it opened its mouth and spat out a dark purple flame, which turned into a shield in front of it.
However, how could its dark purple flame withstand Sima Xian's Epic-ranked Vigor Pill of Light and the evolved Spiritual Stove of Purple Godly Thunder?
The shield shattered instantly, and the Purple Godly Thunder Cannon bombarded the skeleton horse's body fiercely.
In an instant, the skeleton horse seemed as if it had collided head-on with a thick city wall. Amidst a loud boom, it retreated explosively with the Dark Knight. The horse's head and the front half of its body were shattered, and the Dark Knight was flung off.
When facing the Leopard Demon God Ozzie, Sima Xian had used the Purple Godly Thunder Cannon to forcefully block his opponent, and at that time, Ozzie was still in the Demon God state. Be it the Black Knight or its mount, they could not compare to the Leopard Demon God in terms of strength! Naturally, they could not block this attack.
However, the sacrifice of the skeleton horse did not come without a price. Although it was shattered, it also blocked most of the Purple Godly Thunder Cannon's attack for the Black Knight. Only some of the aftershocks hit the Black Knight. The Black Knight's body was surrounded by purple light, and its speed was slightly slowed. At this time, Lin Xin's Blue Fire Phoenix arrived again.
The loud and clear cry of the phoenix finally resounded through the third floor of the Tower of Eternity. The Black Knight fell to the ground, pointed the spear in his hand forward, and a spear light pierced the Blue Fire Phoenix's head. It tried to destroy it.
However, the Blue Fire Phoenix's body suddenly froze in the air. In the next instant, the Blue Fire Phoenix turned into a blue light and disappeared instantly.
It was a blue light that resembled a needle. Almost as soon as the blue light flashed, it pierced into the black knight's spear.
The Black Knight clearly felt a huge threat. He let out a scream, and a strong purple light suddenly froze along with the dark aura rising from his body. A ball of light that was black in the center and surrounded by purple light lit up from his chest. His body also froze in that instant. Surrounded by the purple light, he stood there like a statue.
This was obviously a passive defense skill, a bit like Divine Defense Block.
In the next instant, the power of the Blue Fire Phoenix Spiritual Stove exploded.
The spear in the Black Knight's hand melted from the tip, and the blue light spread at an astonishing speed, reaching his arm in the blink of an eye. The Black Knight's spear and right arm actually vaporized in the blue light, and not a trace was left. The blue light continued to extend towards his torso, and there was a fierce conflict with the purplish-black ball of light on his chest.
The power of the Blue Fire Phoenix was too strong, and the terrifying heat caused the surrounding air to distort. Despite the obstruction of the purplish-black ball of light, the Black Knight's right shoulder quickly melted, and it continued to extend towards his chest!
It was also at this time, a mournful gray light slashed at the Black Knight's back. The Grim Reaper in the sky also shot out a ray of gray light, shining on the mournful gray light blade.
The gray light flashed, and the purplish-black ball of light shattered. At the same time, the left side of the Black Knight's body also shattered.
The Blue Fire Phoenix lost its obstruction, and immediately spread at an astonishing speed. In the blink of an eye, the Black Knight's body was completely incinerated.
A ball of purplish-black flames came out of the Black Knight's head, and a somewhat sharp voice sounded. "Eighth Holy Guard, at your command." With that, it turned into a ball of purple light, and merged into the Eternal Melody on Cai Er's chest, and disappeared.
From start to finish, the battle didn't take too long. Even Cai 'er didn't expect that they would be able to defeat the eighth holy guard so easily.
Without a doubt, the biggest contributors to this battle were Sima Xian and Lin Xin. The Purple Godly Thunder Cannon and the Blue Fire Phoenix were the most important things to end this Dark Knight. Cai Er herself didn't use her full strength at all.
Following the Black Knight's death, the surrounding world of darkness suddenly became distorted, and the black skeletons also disappeared in this distortion.
When everything became clear again, they discovered that they were already in the middle of a wide tunnel.
This place was a little similar to the first floor of the Tower of Eternity, except that the surrounding pillars were all black. In the distance, they saw a white screen of light.
Cai Er took a deep breath, and nodded to Lin Xin and Sima Xian.
At this time, the two had already sat down cross-legged. Sima Xian was slightly better off, he had the Red Dragon Armor to reduce the backlash of the Spiritual Stove of Purple Godly Thunder, but the spiritual power consumption was a little high. But Lin Xin couldn't. The power of the Spiritual Stove of Blue Fire Phoenix was much stronger than before, but the backlash was also more intense, and the consumption of spiritual power was also extremely terrifying. One had to know that the opponent was a rank-9 powerhouse, and this rank-9 Black Knight would also melt in front of his Blue Fire Phoenix. This was his strongest attack, much stronger than the Vulcan's Finger. If it wasn't to buy time to save Long Haochen, he definitely wouldn't use the Blue Fire Phoenix so easily.
Sima Xian said to Cai Er, "Vice-captain, don't worry about us, we've already passed this stage, it's safe here, let's stay here and recover our spiritual power. You guys continue forward. Once we recover a little, we'll catch up. "
In the Tower of Eternity, other than the Light Element, only Cai Er's Death Element could absorb enough elements to recover spiritual power. The others couldn't rely on the elements inside the Tower of Eternity to recover their spiritual power, they could only rely on magic crystals.
At this time, Lin Xin was holding a rank-8 Fire Element magic crystal in each hand, quickly recovering his spiritual power. These magic crystals weren't produced by Demons, but had to be dug out from the bodies of Demonic Beasts. Because this was the only way to not have the Dark Element.
