Chapter 530 - Sky Collapsing Ground Crushing Strike
Chapter 530: Sky Collapsing Ground Crushing Strike
Bu Yi hooked her finger, and the Holy Light Chain tightened itself around Eighteen Massacres. Holy Light Chain was the signature crowd control skill of Ascetic Priests—it could only be used on a single target, and when it was activated, the target would not be able to use skills, unable to attack or move. However, in that period of time, the caster would not be able to do anything else either.
Eighteen Massacres never expected himself to be bound by such an inconspicuous weak woman. He shouted fiercely, “B*tch, are you looking for death? Awaken Undeads, my Undead servants—”
Slap!
“Foul mouth!”
Before Eighteen Massacres finished speaking, a heavy slap mark appeared on his face! Lin Jie, who had worn a heavy-type armor full of thorns, was in a posture with his right hand in a slapping position. He stood in front of Eighteen Massacres coldly.
That was not over! As Eighteen Massacres was controlled by the two of them, the Wind Earl that was under Agile Leopard’s control had finally been freed from the bind, and its long spear swung a towering ray of light. From top to bottom, that attack was directly slashed straight towards Eighteen Massacres!
Eighteen Massacres’ figure trembled and turned into an illusion—the long spear’s strike missed! That was the [Abyss Blink], an escape skill that could allow one to temporarily be freed of all control skills.
“F*ck…” Eighteen Massacres could feel the burning pain on his face and was enraged. He raised his Seven Style Spear, and a hideous Undead was summoned. It pounced towards Lin Jie and the Wind Earl while waving its hand all over in the air. At the same time, the Wind Earl had also attacked Lin Jie and Eighteen Massacres.
Lin Jie was temporarily exposed to attacks from the front and the rear!
The two long spears were simultaneously shot towards Lin Jie.
Clang—
One could only see that Broken Blade was skillfully thrust between the two spears, and once he swung his Broken Blade horizontally, the two spears were pushed away. Immediately after, Lin Jie used Death Grip and grabbed Eighteen Massacres’ body towards him! Eighteen Massacres was about to take the chance to attack, but he was controlled by the Ice Spirit Slash, which was shot towards him.
Then, the long spears of the Wind Earl took a U-turn and pierced towards Lin Jie once again. Lin Jie pulled Eighteen Massacres over to become his shield, and the long spears pierced through Eighteen Massacres’ helmet.
Lin Jie took the opportunity to hit a man when he was down and attacked Eighteen Massacres with Army Obliteration. The Wind Earl’s long spear was also brought in the momentum and had thrust into Eighteen Massacres three consecutive times.
-2,954!
-3,541!
-2,758!
“Wow… the damage is quite high, eh?” Lin Jie gloated.
Eighteen Massacres was instantly angered, and his Seven Style Spear directly transformed into that of an Evil Spirit, then Abyss Spirit Slash was sliced towards Lin Jie. At the same time, the Sun Demonic Sword rose behind Eighteen Massacres, and after it drew a circle in the air, it was also pierced towards Lin Jie.
The Wind Earl controlled by Agile Leopard saw that his attack actually helped Lin Jie, so he roared angrily and instantly used [Wind Spearmanship], which was what the Wind Earl was best at when he was alive.
Wind Spearmanship included a starting strike, a set of Combo Attacks, and an ultimate skill. If the whole set of attacks hit one, it would be even enough to instakill Lin Jie!
Lin Jie’s eyes turned cold as he activated Shield Cut, slashing towards the Abyss Spirit Slash of Eighteen Massacres. Immediately after, he formed six Lightning Spears and shot them all towards the Wind Earl’s spears.
Eighteen Massacres could only see that his Abyss Spirit Slash was pushed slightly upwards after being attacked by Broken Blade, and the attack, which was originally aimed at Lin Jie’s heart, directly pierced towards his head.
Eighteen Massacres could not help but be elated. As everyone knew, the Damage Dealt towards the head was 10% higher than the heart even if both were weak spots, and there was a higher possibility of Critical Hit.
“Lone Wolf, you were a victim of your own cleverness, you wanted to parry both attacks by yourself, did you think it was possible?” Eighteen Massacres was ecstatic in his heart.
The aim if Lin Jie’s actions should have been to directly flick Eighteen Massacres’ attack away, but who would have expected that he had shot oneself in the foot? Not only did he not repel the attack successfully, but the attack was also shot towards his head directly.
Eighteen Massacres instantly activated the Abyss Knight’s Endorsement skill, and high-level Undead, like Abyss Devils and Shadow Barons, appeared.
Who would have expected that before the Seven Style Spear pierced into Lin Jie, he would tilt his head? Now, in front of Eighteen Massacres was actually the Wind Earl’s long spear! The angle at which the Wind Earl’s long spear was shot had deviated from being hit by the six Lightning Spears and just nicely pierced towards Eighteen Massacres’ Seven Style Spear!
Such a skillful execution not only completely shocked Eighteen Massacres, but even Agile Leopard was flabbergasted.
What Lin Jie had done was not as simple as flicking away the duo’s weapons. Each of their attack angles and strength was different, so wanting to guide two totally different attacking trajectories into one needed an extremely complicated calculation, coupled with the skills and execution ability beyond normal people, only then could someone be able to do such a thing.
When the two of them wanted to cancel their skills, it was already too late. The Wind Earl’s Wind Spearmanship was naturally many times stronger than Seven Style Spear, so the instant they collided, the souls of spirits in Eighteen Massacres’ Abyss Spirit Slash were directly destroyed and the spear pierced into Eighteen Massacres’ chest.
“F*ck!” swore Eighteen Massacres.
“F*ck!” Agile Leopard was outraged too. Although he was slightly unfamiliar controlling the Boss’ body, directly being the tool of others to attack was simply too difficult for him to accept. Also, the Boss really used a spear, as the word suggested, he was really used as a tool by Lin Jie. [1. It is a pun as in Chinese, the idiom “being used as a spear by others” means “being a tool for others”, thus since the Boss literally uses a spear, it was referenced as so.]
He had always thought he was a level higher than Lin Jie in execution skills, so how could he be played by Lin Jie like that? Therefore, since it was so, he simply wanted to end everything by using an ultimate skill!
The Wind Earl was the king of the General’s Tomb, a Sub-Legendary Overlord! A Boss of such grade was really an existence that could easily destroy everything! Now only were the skills he grasped extremely powerful, they could easily cause the destruction of The New Age. Besides the Spearmanship that Wind Earl knew, as an Undead, it had another even stronger skill named [Sky Collapsing Ground Crushing Strike].
Weng——
When Agile Leopard started to activate that skill, the whole General’s Tomb instantly quietened down. The howling chilly wind also disappeared, and the General’s Tomb instantly turned into a frightening atmosphere and looked as if a storm was brewing.
Lin Jie took the chance to use Identify.
[Wind Earl] (Sub-Legendary Overlord)
Level: 65
Health Points: 11,000,000
Attack: ???
Defense: ???
Note: He was once the strongest War General of the City of Light. He had barged into the Dark Shrine before to save his lover and destroyed one of the Sub-Shrines by himself. However, such a respected soldier did not receive the treatment he deserved, but his soul was tortured while being buried in the soil.
‘It’s again full of f*cking question marks,’ Lin Jie cursed in his heart though being able to identify the health points of a Boss of such grade was already giving him face. However, the Boss’ health points were so high that it could make people devastated, so it was better not to know the rest.
Ding~
—’Your mission item [Mediumship Orb] has been activated.’
Lin Jie was shocked. ‘The Mediumship Orb!? That’s right! I had forgotten about it!’
Initially, only three Mediumship Orbs were needed to open the General’s Mausoleum, but now that the General himself had appeared from the General’s Mausoleum, then what use did the Mediumship Orbs have anymore? That’s right, in the description of the orb, it mentioned that there was another use for it.
‘Is it possible—’ At that thought, Lin Jie took a look.
[Mediumship Orb]: It reduces all monsters’ attributes in the General’s Tomb by 10%, and it lasts for at most 10 minutes.
‘So it was like this!’ Lin Jie instantly understood! ‘No wonder one could obtain more than one Mediumship Orbs in the Hall of Corpses map, so it was supposed to be used as such!’
There was no time to waste, so Lin Jie directly crushed three of the Mediumship Orbs, and the Wind Earl’s health bar instantly decreased by 1/3! Not only so, but the attributes of all monsters within the whole General’s Tomb had also decreased by 30%.
Agile Leopard raised his long spear coldly and shouted word by word, “Sky! Collapsing! Ground! Crushing! Strike!”
Kaboom— Kaboom—
Just as he finished, the whole General’s Tomb started shaking.
The ground was shaking! The pitch-black gravel on the ground started trembling, countless bones, corpses, and armors were upturned, and layers of dry land were exposed, which made shivers run down people’s spine.
The palaces were also shaking! In the Hall of Corpses, all the Terracotta Warrior-like monsters were shattered as they fell to the ground, and corpses were poured out like the tide. In the Hall of Abomination, all the Abominations exploded and turned into a pile of trash formed with flesh lumps. At the Soldier’s Tomb, the tombstones started collapsing and turned into gravel.
The sky was trembling! The gloomy and dark sky seemed to be sinking as it tilted, and corpse clouds, which were filled with the smelly stench of corpses, fell from the sky. Cracks could be seen appearing in the sky as if it was really going to collapse.
Immediately after, the sounds of explosions followed from the ferocious mountain torrents! There were cracks in the sky and ground, blood surged out like the tide and instantly filled the General’s Tomb into a sea of blood! Countless monsters fell to the ground, and the instant when players in the General’s Tomb came in contact with the blood, they too were turned into skeletons as they were completely corroded!
“So the strongest skill of the final Boss was actually—Map Kill!” murmured Lin Jie as he looked at the General’s Tomb, which had completely turned into a sea of blood, while in a daze. He suddenly took out a Random Teleportation Scroll and not caring about anything else, he directly charged towards Bu Yi. He shouted, “Leave!”
Bu Yi was moved as she looked at the man in front of her. Although he was like a crazy wild beast when he was battling and did not even give one look to her during the battle, at the most dangerous moment, he would think of her first.
Bu Yi smiled as she asked a question, which she had already known the answer to, “How about you, are we leaving together?”
“No, only you should leave,” replied Lin Jie.
“Alright, I understand, you will return safely.” Bu Yi nodded obediently and tore the Random Teleportation Scroll. Her limpid eyes stared at Lin Jie as she was enveloped in the light and teleported into space.
Lin Jie sent Bu Yi away and heaved a long sigh of relief—he had finally lifted a load off his mind. He turned around and saw Agile Leopard, who was activating Sky Collapsing Ground Crushing Strike. He grinned widely. “A Map Kill?”
Agile Leopard’s expression was that of astonishment. Only after a long while did he accept that fact and nodded. He said, “Yes, Map Kill. This skill will also kill me. Really… F*ck it.”
“Hehe…” Lin Jie smiled, but he stared at Eighteen Massacres.
Map Kill! As the name suggested, it was a skill that destroyed everything on the whole map. It was normally only something that the final Boss of the map could grasp. Once it was activated, unless one had an item like Random Teleportation Scroll, everyone in the map would most certainly die.
Eighteen Massacres was the Shrine Master of Blood Sub-Shrine, so he had the skill [Bloody Door], which could directly teleport him back.
Lin Jie used Death Grip to grab onto him as he smiled coldly. “Isn’t it better to face this skill together?”
“Let go!”
The person who said that was not Eighteen Massacres but Agile Leopard! He roared fiercely and directly pierced his spear towards Lin Jie’s right hand. Agile Leopard sliced the huge pitch-black hand gathered by Lin Jie into parts.
Eighteen Massacres grinned as he successfully escaped.
“Why?” asked Lin Jie calmly.
Agile Leopard curved up the corners of his mouth. “Simple, if you want him to stay, then I will make him leave. Lone Wolf, I only need to bring you alone down with me!”
