âAn Ancient G.o.d? No⊠Although the Divine Might of the Ancient G.o.ds Iâve encountered in the past was also terrifying, it canât compare to this NPCâs Divine Might. What level of existence is this NPC?â
âCould she be one of the Primordial G.o.ds of legend?â
âAre you kidding me?! Black Flame can summon a Primordial G.o.d?!â
âŠ
Kalishaâs appearance excited and shocked everyone present. They were excited because they now had a solution to Tosas, and they were shocked because of Kalishaâs unbelievably strong Divine Might. Purgatory Jade, in particular, couldnât help but change her opinion of s.h.i.+ Feng.
As a Vice Guild Leader of Dragonâs Crown, Purgatory Jade differed with Kowloon Demon on the world outside of theirs. More specifically, she looked down on it, even after seeing s.h.i.+ Feng had a Sacred Dragon for a Flying Mount.
On the way to the Northern Badlands, Purgatory Jade had learned through conversations with Xiao Yilong and the others that they were considered top-cla.s.s experts among the outside worldâs various powers. Heiserâs adventurer team even regarded her as its strongest chosen one.
Although Heiser was indeed strong as a Half-step Mortal G.o.d, she wouldnât be anywhere near the top if she were put among Dragonâs Crownâs chosen ones. In other words, the outside world was only superior in Flying Mounts, weapons, and equipment. When it came to nurturing experts, the outside world could not compete with Dragonâs Crown. If Dragonâs Crown had access to similar weapons and equipment, it could trump all of the outside worldâs players and powers.
However, s.h.i.+ Fengâs actions after arriving in the Northern Badlands forced Purgatory Jade to revisit her evaluation of the outside world. First, he had used an unbelievably powerful large-scale Destruction Spell to thin out the demonic mist and force the Northern Badlandsâ Taboo Boss out of its habitat. Now, he had summoned an existence that was apparently a Primordial G.o.d. Neither of these feats was within Dragonâs Crownâs capabilities.
Before Purgatory Jade could recover from her surprise, Kalishaâs mountainous figure suddenly shrank, transforming into a two-meter-tall human woman in a crimson dress. Then, she appeared in front of s.h.i.+ Feng and glanced at Tosas and s.h.i.+ Fengâs teammates, her gaze causing everyoneâs soul to shudder. Everyone felt as if they were staring at destruction itself.
âYou have a real knack for finding opponents. How did you even find such a little fellow?â Kalisha said to s.h.i.+ Feng, her expression serious as she scrutinized the All-Consuming Demon in the distance. âIf I hadnât recovered some of my strength, I might not have been a match for this little fellow and its spatial law.â
After saying so, Kalisha pointed a finger at Tosas. Before anyone could react, a lightning longsword had pierced the All-Consuming Demon, and the True World it cast shattered. Immediately afterward, Tosasâs aura waned, and its body withered. Its Basic Attributes also plummeted, and its HP instantly fell by 200 quadrillion.
However, after Kalishaâs attack, her complexion paled visibly.
âI have sealed part of its power. This is all I can do for you,â Kalisha said, glancing at s.h.i.+ Feng. Then, as her body transformed into a streak of light and disappeared from the remnant primordial world, she added, âThe rest is up to you now.â
As Kalisha disappeared, Tosas revealed a manic expression.
âSo what if my strength is sealed? You ants will still die!â Tosas bellowed as it swung its soul sword at s.h.i.+ Fengâs team.
Suddenly, over a hundred sword lights flew at s.h.i.+ Fengâs team, each carrying enough power to threaten s.h.i.+ Feng with death. The formidable attacks showed no sign of coming from a heavily injured or suppressed monster.
As the sword lights closed in on s.h.i.+ Fengâs team, Purgatory Jade stepped forward and stood in front of everyone. Then, the two small round s.h.i.+elds she wielded suddenly expanded and deflected all of the sword lights.
âWhat an incredible defensive move!â s.h.i.+ Feng exclaimed.
Although Tosas had been weakened and could no longer cast its True World, its Strength remained superior to that of Level 240 players. The attack it just executed also had the empowering effect of a Peak Gold Combat Technique. Even players with similar Basic Attributes would have difficulty defending against it, let alone players with inferior Basic Attributes.
âThis is nothing. When Big Sis Jade uses this move, she can survive an attack from even Level 240-plus Taboo Bosses. Now that Tosas has been weakened so much, there is no way it can threaten her life,â Kowloon Demon stated proudly. Once he finished boasting, he turned to his fellow guild members and shouted, âEveryone, listen up! Itâs time we showed Guild Leader Black Flame Dragonâs Crownâs capabilities!â
âUnderstood!â
Like Kowloon Demon, the rest of Dragonâs Crownâs members wore proud expressions. At Kowloon Demonâs command, they promptly split into parties of three to five and used various Combination Techniques, Skills, and Spells. Each attack they launched was no weaker than that of Tosas, and they chipped away at the All-Consuming Demonâs HP.
80%⊠79%⊠78%âŠ
As expected of a royal powerâs chosen ones! s.h.i.+ Feng had to marvel at the damage output of Dragonâs Crownâs chosen ones. In that case, I should also attack with everything Iâve got.
Immediately, s.h.i.+ Feng took out the Feather of Oath and summoned nine Level 236 War G.o.ddesses to join the offensive.
Although the War G.o.ddesses were lower-level than Dragonâs Crownâs chosen ones, each was equipped with three to six Divine Artifacts. Thus, their Basic Attributes were far superior. Each could rival one of Dragonâs Crownâs parties, while the nine of them together could match half of Dragonâs Crownâs team.
Subsequently, time pa.s.sed quickly. Over half an hour later, Tosas had only 1% of its HP remaining. Perhaps sensing that death was imminent, the All-Consuming Demon went berserk and shattered Kalishaâs seal when its HP fell to 1%. As a result, not only did it manage to recast its True World, but the attacks from its soul sword also became unblockable.
âThe Boss is almost dead! If you want to live, attack it with everything youâve got!â s.h.i.+ Feng shouted when he saw Tosas starting to one-shot every player it attacked.
As s.h.i.+ Feng spoke, Tosas eliminated another two Dragonâs Crown members with its soul sword. Seeing this, none of the Dragonâs Crown members dared not hold anything back and promptly attacked with their trump cards, causing the All-Consuming Demonâs HP to fall even quicker.
At this rate, it would only take a few more seconds before Tosas lost all its HP.
âDie! Even if I die, you are going down with me!â Tosas naturally understood its imminent demise as well. Out of spite, it directed its attention to s.h.i.+ Feng, the leader of the team, and swung its soul sword at him.
Now that Tosas was free of Kalishaâs seal, it could enhance its attacks with its unique spatial law, allowing them to be unpredictable and unblockable. Thus, s.h.i.+ Feng had no choice but to use Void Barrier, his strongest lifesaving measure, to protect himself.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
However, after withstanding only a few attacks, the Void Barrier, which was supposed to last 30 seconds, shattered. When s.h.i.+ Feng saw Tosas swinging its weapon again, his eyes turned bloodshot.
Miniature Abyssal World!
Worldâs Descent!
Flowing s.p.a.ce!
s.h.i.+ Feng did not know whether it was because of his Pseudo-Tier 7 Concentration or his Miniature Abyssal World improving, but the instant he executed Flowing s.p.a.ce, his body transformed into multiple streaks of light that traveled around Tosas, and he dodged the All-Consuming Demonâs attack by the skin of his teeth.
Just as Tosas locked on to s.h.i.+ Fengâs figure and was about to execute another attack, the nine War G.o.ddesses a short distance away completed their Combination Combat Technique. Ultimately, before Tosas could drag s.h.i.+ Feng down with it, a hundred golden lightning bolts pierced its body and plundered the last vestiges of its HP.
As Tosas reluctantly collapsed, the surviving members of s.h.i.+ Fengâs team received a series of system notifications.
âŠ
TL Notes:
Fyi, Tosasâs HP started to decrease from 80% because of the damage it suffered from Dark Cl.u.s.ter (-100 quadrillion) and Kalisha (-200 quadrillion).
