Undying Will, Warring Palace Skeleton, these were the giant skeleton's names. This name seemed to have some sort of hidden meaning, but Ling Chen couldn't understand it. Its level was unexpectedly low, just like the other skeletons he had encountered on the way, only LV20. However, its grade didn't surprise Ling Chen at all … …
Heaven's End!!
It was a level higher than Celestial grade. To players of the same level, it was impossible to defeat a Heaven's End grade monster!
Although it was only LV20, the strength of a LV20 Heaven's End was already an unparalleled existence for humans who weren't at the peak of their strength. The Azure Dragon City's scouts all dying here was the best proof of this. Furthermore, on its body, there was a semi-spirit girl who didn't have much attack power, but had a powerful Darkness Manipulation ability!
This was the first Heaven's End grade BOSS that Ling Chen had encountered since entering Mystic Moon. It had 2,000,000 HP, and its innate skill had an "incomparably high" defense. If it was him, without Soul Sacrifice, he might not even be able to break through its defense. But right now, he had Xi Ling by his side … … as long as he had Xi Ling, even if he had to face this terrifying Heaven's End grade skeleton, he still had a chance of winning.
Xi Ling's "Crimson Laser" could burn away 90,000 of its HP, so as long as he hit it with the Crimson Laser 20 times, he would be able to destroy this terrifying Heaven's End grade skeleton. As long as he hit it 20 times … … with Wild Flames in between, it would be even faster.
But the prerequisite was that he could survive until Xi Ling hit it with the Crimson Laser 20 times.
"Qi Yue, what are the chances of me winning against this skeleton!" Ling Chen asked as he quickly pulled away from the Warring Palace Skeleton.
"Do you want to hear the truth?"
"… …"
"There's no chance. Unless you die, you won't be able to leave this place either. "Qi Yue replied bluntly.
"Then what if you count Xi Ling?"
"My answer is based on the combination of all the abilities you possess and what you can rely on. Although Xi Ling's attack power is terrifying, in this narrow and enclosed space, there is no way for you to dodge the skeleton's attack. Unless Xi Ling can kill it instantly, you will be killed in an instant. "
Ling Chen did not say anything, nor did he refute. The Warring Palace Skeleton's first move against Ling Chen proved Qi Yue's words perfectly.
It took a step forward … One step, and covered a distance of more than ten meters. Then, it took a second step … In just two short steps, it had closed the distance that Ling Chen had worked hard to widen by almost half. The Warring Palace Skeleton's steps were not fast, but one step was equivalent to ten steps for Ling Chen. It was impossible for Ling Chen to widen the distance between them.
The third step … the fourth step … after taking four steps, the Warring Palace Skeleton was standing right in the middle of the eerie castle. Just as Ling Chen had expected, as long as it stood there, with the length of its arm and the length of its giant sword, it could attack any corner of the castle. It did not even need to move its body. No matter how hard the people in the castle tried to escape, they would not be able to escape its attack range.
"Perish … and … fall … into … the … cold … hell … with … me …"
The Warring Palace Skeleton's voice was like thunder, causing Ling Chen's entire body to feel an indescribable discomfort. It raised its left hand, and the giant sword glowed with a black light as it suddenly slashed downwards … the Warring Palace Skeleton's body was too big, and its movements were very slow. However, the speed at which the giant sword fell was shockingly fast … this was its most basic attack skill – Earth Splitting Slash!
The Warring Palace Skeleton's body was huge, and its Defense and Attack power were both very high. However, its attacks were relatively simple, and its movements were relatively slow. Apart from its ultimate skill, Earth Splitting Slash was its only attack that had a high damage priority. However, even though it only had one attack, it was still a terrifying attack. This was because it could be controlled by the Warring Palace Skeleton from afar at any time, and could cover an area of 20 metres!
Just as the giant sword was about to fall, Ling Chen had already predicted its trajectory. He immediately rode the Cloud-treading Colt to the side … However, the giant sword was falling too quickly, and the area of effect of the Earth Splitting Slash was too large. Right now, Ling Chen's movement speed was greatly reduced, and although he had reacted quickly, he was still within the attack range of the Earth Splitting Slash. The moment the ground exploded, his position would still be swept into it.
From the moment the giant sword started to fall to the ground, it took less than half a second. Trying to escape the attack range of 20 metres in such a short amount of time was simply a fool's dream. Not to mention the fact that Ling Chen's movement speed was greatly reduced, even if he was twice as fast, it would still be very difficult.
The giant sword was getting closer and closer to the ground, and in Ling Chen's eyes, there was only a short distance left. He suddenly turned around, and raised his right hand …
"Moon Shadow!!"
A black glow shot out, instantly enveloping a radius of 17 meters. It also froze the Warring Palace Skeleton's sword, which was only inches away from the ground. At the same time, the Warring Palace Skeleton's body, which was gripping its sword tightly, froze.
After getting a breather, Ling Chen immediately yelled out, "Xi Ling! Attack it immediately!! "
Without even needing Ling Chen's order, Xi Ling had already flown over the moment Moon Shadow appeared. In the blink of an eye, she had already reached the Warring Palace Skeleton's body, and a crimson ray of light descended from the sky, striking the Warring Palace Skeleton's chest.
-90750！
Under the burning of the terrifying flames, a large damage figure rose up from the Warring Palace Skeleton's body. Adding on the crimson ray that Xi Ling had transferred to it, even though it was facing a powerful Heaven's End grade Boss, Xi Ling had still taken out 10% of its HP in just 2 attacks.
After the crimson ray, Xi Ling didn't stop, and followed up with a Wild Flames. The flames covered the Warring Palace Skeleton's body, as well as the semi-spirit girl in its hands …
-36300，-36300。
The Wild Flames that had hit the semi-spirit girl were transferred to the Warring Palace Skeleton's body, causing 2 damage figures to rise up. This result was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise … however, Ling Chen did not feel much joy. This was because he had only been able to dodge the Warring Palace Skeleton's first attack because of the Lunar Scourge's Moon Shadow. How would he be able to dodge the second attack?
At this moment, Ling Chen's originally heavy body suddenly became light. 30 seconds had passed, and the Darkness Lock and Underworld Lock on Ling Chen's body finally disappeared. He quickly looked at the Warring Palace Skeleton that had been frozen by Moon Shadow, and his expression darkened … he couldn't just rely on Xi Ling. No matter what happens next, I'll at least let you taste my ultimate attack!!
Cloud-treading Colt madly sprinted towards the Warring Palace Skeleton's right foot. As he sprinted, 2 layers of light appeared around Ling Chen's body …
"Soul Sacrifice!"
"Battle Soul Possession!"
5 seconds passed, and the effects of Moon Shadow finally ended. The Warring Palace Skeleton's Earth Splitting Slash slammed into the ground, causing the ground to tremble. However, it was no longer able to hit Ling Chen. At this moment, Ling Chen had rushed to its feet, and released his strongest attack …
"Four Corners Star Formation!!"
A berserk Battle Qi was released, quickly forming a four-sided formation that exploded, mercilessly rushing towards the Warring Palace Skeleton's right foot …
Boom!!!
-1。
The sound of the four-sided formation exploding reverberated in his ears. Ling Chen was completely dumbfounded, unable to believe his own eyes.
He had activated Soul Sacrifice and Battle Soul Possession, and had even used his strongest attack … but the damage he had dealt to the Warring Palace Skeleton was only "1".
This was because he hadn't broken through its defense, resulting in a "1" point of damage.
Ling Chen was truly shocked. He had originally thought that if he didn't activate Soul Sacrifice, he wouldn't be able to break through its defense. However, he was wrong … even though he had activated Soul Sacrifice, and his basic attack power had risen to over 3000, he still hadn't broken through the Warring Palace Skeleton's defense.
What kind of terrifying defense was this?
This gigantic skeleton's greatest strength wasn't in its attack, but in its physical defense!
What it didn't fear the least was physical attacks, and its weakness was fire! Xi Ling's fire completely ignored its physical defense, and was able to deal double damage to it.
Ling Chen was stunned for a second, but he quickly recovered and ran away. Even though he wasn't willing, he had no choice but to rely on Xi Ling.
However, the prerequisite was that he had to survive the next attack, and the one after that …
Ling Chen passed through the Warring Palace Skeleton's position, and rode the Cloud-treading Colt to the back. The Warring Palace Skeleton also turned around, locked onto his position, and once again raised its giant sword. After the first attack, it had taken a few seconds to put away its sword, turn around, and raise its sword. However, when the second [Earth Splitting Slash] fell, Ling Chen could still smell the scent of death.
His reaction speed, judgement, and agility were unparalleled. In the shortest amount of time, he was able to accurately predict where the giant sword would fall. He used all of his strength to move as fast as he could towards the shortest possible distance …
However, in half a second, the attack covered a range of 20 meters. If he wanted to completely avoid it, he had to move at least 10 meters away within this half a second. Even if his judgement was perfect, his movement speed was limited, making it impossible for him to do so. Therefore, as he ran, he could only watch helplessly as the giant sword got closer and closer to the ground before he could escape the attack's range, bringing him closer and closer to death …
The strength of Heaven's End bosses wasn't just in their HP, defense, and attack power. What was even more terrifying was their terrifying attack range. This was especially true for beginner players who hadn't fully matured yet. A Heaven's End boss' attack range was enough to make them feel despair.
