Chapter 78 You for me and me for you (2)
Xie Feng reached the back of Shui Xiu and, without hesitation, cut with his sword.
-400
Surprisingly, the physical damage caused by his attack was remarkably high. This is probably due to the fact that Shui Xiu is currently a level 15 BOSS and is weakened by the Pearl of Light.
*Roar!*
Shui Xiu, who finally realized that there was someone else in the room, roared like a monster and, without turning around, waved his right arm back.
However, is it easy to hit Xie Feng?
While expressing no emotions on his face and a cold expression, Xie Feng ducked to avoid Shui Xiu's attack easily. Immediately after, he put one hand on Shui Xiu's back and said:
"I see you like to ignore me, let's see how long you can act that way!"
*Swoosh!*
A fierce wind came out of Xie Feng's hand and hit Shui Xiu without hindrance.
-1180... -1183.... -1179
Three seconds of constant damage, Tornado!
Not only had Xie Feng's attack taken over 3500 health points from Shui Xiu, but it also sent him flying and successfully pushed him away from the light barrier!
*Bang!*
Shui Xiu was sent flying several meters before hitting the ground.
Only then did Xie Feng have the opportunity to look carefully inside the barrier. There, a ten or eleven years old girl was lying on the ground with her eyes closed. The girl was incredibly beautiful, like a little angel who had descended from the heavens into the mortal world.
[Shui Wuhen]
[Title: Elected of the Light]
[Level: 5]
[HP: 500]
[Description: A normal ten years old girl. For unknown reasons, the Pearl of Light came into her hands. Although she was not accepted as its owner, the Pearl of Light would protect her in times of danger.]
No surprise to him, she was apparently a normal girl, with nothing to highlight except the fact that she held one of the seven legendary pearls of the Samsara world in her hands.
'Danger!'
All the hairs on Xie Feng's body stood up like a wild animal. Without delay, he turned his head slightly to one side.
*Sou!*
Xie Feng had an ugly expression as he looked at the dark black scythe that passed millimeters from his head. Only a split second later, and that attack would have surely hit him!
'Focus, focus!'
Xie Feng looked forward and saw Shui Xiu standing a few meters away. From his right arm emerged what appeared to be the tip of a spike. After failing his attack, the spike disappeared as if it had never existed in the first place.
"Why.... Why!.... WHY DO YOU INTERRUPT!!!"
Shui Xiu's raspy voice seemed to be that of a person who had not spoken for several years and not of an ordinary person who had disappeared only three days ago.
Xie Feng noticed something strange, but he was forced to jump aside before he could think about it.
*Bang!*
Shui Xiu did not expect any response from Xie Feng and immediately released another scythe. If Xie Feng hadn't moved earlier, that attack would have definitely caught up with him.
Xie Feng also realized that a conversation between him and Shui Xiu would not be possible. If he is distracted for a moment, his life will be over, and all his effort to level up for more than ten days will be completely lost.
Xie Feng leaned his body forward, looking like a tiger ready to jump over his prey and observed the person... no, the BOSS in front of him.
Even after losing almost 4000 health points, Shui Xiu didn't seem to care about that. He looked at Xie Feng with a furious expression and the next second charge towards him.
Instead of avoiding, Xie Feng advanced to meet Shui Xiu's attack.
In just a second, the distance between the two closed. Xie Feng's face and Shui Xiu's face were close to each other. Xie Feng could even smell the rotten smell coming from Shui Xiu's body.
The scene was similar to a movie scene in which everything takes place momentarily in slow motion, and then a scene is presented at full speed.
Suddenly, a light shone from Shui Xiu's left hand. Although the light was incredibly dim compared to the light emitted by the Pearl of Light, the difference between gray and white was extremely noticeable.
Xie Feng didn't even think about it before putting all his strength into his two legs and taking a big somersault, passing over Shui Xiu's head.
*Ka!*
Not even a second later, a Bone Hand, just like the one that was stopping his movements on his way here, came out of the ground. When it missed its target, the Bone Hand sank back into the ground.
Shui Xiu's movements were undoubtedly incredibly powerful, and his speed was not slow at all. However, his body movements were the same as those of an untrained person. In other words, even though his movement speed was fast enough, he could not make sudden movements like Xie Feng.
Therefore, Shui Xiu's attack seemed to end with that.... Now it was Xie Feng's turn.
Even in the air, Xie Feng maneuvered his body in such a way that he began to spin at an even faster speed, like a rhombus, and taking advantage of that spin he wielded his sword again.
-399
Before his feet touched the ground, he cast a Small Fireball and took another 510 points from the Shui Xiu health bar.
Suddenly and without any prior sign, a scythe shot out of Shui Xiu's back. Fortunately, Xie Feng had not relaxed his guard even after dodging Shui Xiu's previous attacks.
When the scythe was within inches of his face, Xie Feng leaned in 90 degrees and successfully dodged the attack.
*Ka!*
Another Bone Hand rises from the ground.
As if he had already foreseen something like this, even while his body remained flexed, Xie Feng lifted his left leg and swung it strongly upwards. Utilizing that force, Xie Feng's body made a complete rotation and successfully escaped being caught by the Bone Hand.
Even as he was positioning himself, Xie Feng lifted his right hand and with his eyes wide open, he used his strongest skill again.
*Swoosh!*
-1180... -1178... -1181
In just twelve or thirteen seconds, the amount of damage caused by Xie Feng was 8390 points!
That means his average damage per second was almost 1000 points!
Of course, most of that damage was caused by Tornado. But even so, Xie Feng hadn't even used the rest of his skills. The reason he didn't use them is that the battle will soon become much more difficult.
At first, it will be easier for him to avoid Shui Xiu's attacks. However, as time passed and the battle drags on, Xie Feng will begin to wear out, and his moves will start to fail.
Although he can fight for several hours without problems, using his concentration 100% and without rest, while performing hard movements, his brain and mind will undoubtedly become exhausted much faster than normal.
***
Thirty minutes passed, and Xie Feng's thoughts came true.
*Sou!*
A scythe shot out of Shui Xiu's body. However, that is not all.
*Sou!*
*Sou!*
Two more scythes shot out of his body!
Head, chest, and abdomen. Three critical points at the same time in just one second!
Xie Feng was about to attack but feeling the real danger of death, he immediately put aside the idea of attacking and jumped back to take distance and get out of the scythes' range.
*Huff...* *Huff...* *Huff...* *Huff...*
Xie Feng's breathing was labored, and his chest was continually rising and falling.
Although he fought for about ten hours straight in his fight against the Guardian of Hell, the pattern of attack by the Guardian of Hell was simple and easy to anticipate, so Xie Feng did not have to expend so much energy in the short term.
However, the attacks of Shui Xiu are too strange!
At first, it was a scythe, and even Xie Feng assumed that Shui Xiu could only use one scythe per attack. However, he was caught off guard and almost killed several times because the number of scythes seemed to increase without stopping.
First, it was one, then two, and now suddenly three.
If it were not for the fact that Cloud Path's cooldown had ended and his current movement speed was 138 points, Xie Feng would have been forced to use Fast Movement or Dissolve to avoid that three-pronged attack.
[Shui Xiu]
[HP: 21.129/200.000 (Currently weakened by the Pearl of Light)]
But his efforts were indeed worth it.
Of the 100.000 health points that Shui Xiu had at the beginning of the battle, although Xie Feng was unable to attack many times and focused on dodging for most of the fight, he can finally see an end to it.
*Whoosh!*
Who started the attack was not Shui Xiu, but Xie Feng!
"Let's finish it once and for all, damn it!".
*Sou!*
*Sou!*
*Sou!*
Three scythes with a gray aura were fired at the same time from different parts of Shui Xiu's body, but Xie Feng already knew that he could not trust that only three existed and the possibility of a fourth scythe was very high.
Xie Feng took a step to the left and dodged the first scythe. Using the force of that same step, jumped and dodged the second scythe. The problem is that now he was in the air, so he could not avoid the last one.
However, Xie Feng did not panic, and as if everything was within his calculations, just at the moment his body was rotating, his sword in his left hand was also spinning fiercely.
*Clang!*
The silver sword and the gray scythe collided with each other making the sparks fly everywhere.
But that's not all!
Xie Feng put more strength in his left hand and shook off the scythe, making his body spin on the opposite side. Using the impulse's force, he shot himself at an even more significant speed towards Shui Xiu.
When he reached his target, Xie Feng cut with his sword while simultaneously casting a Small Fireball.
-400
-1016! (Critical Hit!)
With the 1000 points of magic damage caused by the critical impact and the 400 points of damage caused by his physical attack, almost 1500 additional health points were drained from the Shui Xiu health bar.
Now Shui Xiu's health points were less than twenty thousand! Xie Feng was just one step away from defeating a BOSS grade EMPEROR, single-handedly!
It was also at this time that a girl's angelic voice echoed through the walls. That voice caused different reactions in the two men who were currently fighting to the death.
"Dad!".
