The Almighty Ring

The spear came whistling through the air with such intensity that it made a small sonic boom as it flew past the speed of sound. It made a loud boom as it pierced through the Tank boss, dealing over 800 million damage in one hit, killing the boss with no mercy!

That was the specialty of Chaos attack! No matter how strong your defenses were, or even Invulnerability, Chaos damage would surely reduce your Health Points as long as it hit the target!

“Impossible!” the others gasped. Of all five of them, Alastair the tank had the highest Health Points and Defense, if he was not able to hold his stand being attacked by Jiang Fei, no one could.

“Who’s next?” said Jiang Fei as he picked up the body of the dead Tank from the edge of the spear and effortlessly tossed it to the other boss. It was merely an act. He had no intention to let the others prepare for anything. When the body landed, the spear was already in the air, heading towards the Assassin boss.

Jiang Fei’s original plan was to challenge the Tank boss into a one-on-one fight. The purpose was to stack up Ruthless Barrage, gaining Attack Power to allow him to fight properly. It was a divide and conquer technique. If he were to fight all five of them, he would never be able to survive. His attack might be strong but his Health Points and Defense were nothing but a piece of toilet paper when compared to the bosses. Now that he had accomplished his plan, the next thing to do was to utilize his stacked attack boost to start the massacre.

The Assassin saw the incoming attack and responded just as quickly. He activated Shadow Walk, an Assassin skill which granted an immediate speed boost and Stealth. However, Dragon’s Bane had a 100% Accuracy effect. No matter how you evade, unless you could teleport instantly, Dragon’s Bane would always find its target and pierce it!

-884,751,235!

One hit was all it took to take out the Assassin. After dealing with two Primordial Celestials, Jiang Fei did not plan to relax for a bit. The time for preemptive strikes was over once the second boss was killed. The other Primordials were already on their feet and ready to attack Jiang Fei when the Tank boss was killed. They were only momentarily startled by Jiang Fei throwing the dead body to them.

At the moment Jiang Fei retrieved Dragon’s Bane from the Assassin’s dead body, he quickly unsheathed Soulcutter out

Sword Form: Sword Dragon!

Soulcutter split into 128 swords again and with Jiang Fei’s mental command, they came together to form a large dragon made of swords. It swiveled in the air for a bit before diving straight towards the Archer.

Retrieving Dragon’s Bane as soon as possible was to prevent the other boss from knowing what it was and how it works. Even though they might not know about it, it was still the safest to get it back in his own hands. He then commanded Soulcutter to take control of its own attacks and focused solely on the Archer as Jiang Fei himself headed for the other bosses.

Like ripping a balloon with a spiked baseball bat, the Sword Dragon ripped the Archer effortlessly. The Archer boss might be able to attack with speeds faster than anything Jiang Fei had seen, the Sword Dragon itself was not an entity that could be attacked! Most importantly, the Sword Dragon charged towards the Archer before crashing into it, dealing so many hits. If the Archer had no Invulnerability skills, it would surely die!

-6,258,741!

-7,042,754!

…

Jiang Fei’s attack had reached devastating value because Ruthless Barrage had reached its maximum stacked count. Jiang Fei’s Attack Power was over 9 million then, even though the Archer’s Defensive power was stronger than a player, being attacked 128 times, each dealing over 6 million damage was still lethal!

The Archer would have survived if it had high Evasion stats since Soulcutter attacks were merely an extension of the player itself. Unlike Dragon’s Bane, Soulcutter attacks would miss and could be nullified. Unfortunately, the Archer boss had zero Defensive skills!

Ding! You have killed Lornia the Rose of Iron Thorns!

In just a few seconds, Jiang Fei had effectively killed three Lower Celestial bosses!

“Kill him!” cried one of the two remaining bosses. With the fear of death looming over their heads, they had completely forgotten about Garland’s orders. It did not matter then since if they let Jiang Fei to live, they would die! There might still be a chance for Garland to understand the situation since three of their comrades had been killed by Jiang Fei!

“Kill me? You should have done that a thousand years ago!” said Jiang Fei, grinning like a mad man as he charged towards them with Dragon’s Bane in his hands ready to reap their lives!

“Wretched Human! Descend to hell with you!”

“Redeem your sins with your blood!”

…

The two remaining bosses were a Magician and a Holy Knight.

The Magician started chanting a spell while the Knight charged towards Jiang Fei with a shield and a short sword.

Sword Form: Reflect!

Now that the Archer was killed, Jiang Fei had no use for the Sword Dragon. He ordered the swords to come to his side and form a protective shield to stop the Magician to land an attack on him. At the same time, he aimed at the Knight and hurled Dragon’s Bane out.

Holy Armor of War!

The charging Knight recognized the incoming spear as a lethal attack and quickly activated his Invulnerability skill. However…

-1,107,552,000!

As mentioned, no matter what sort of protective skill one used, Dragon’s Bane would pierce through all of that and hit its target. 1 billion damage was finally achieved when Ruthless Barrage has reached its maximum stack count.

Boom! Bam!

Only when the Knight was killed, did the Magician finished chanting its spell, sending out two fireballs that hit the sword shield. Not only were all spells blocked, but the Magician himself also took damage from all the reflected damage.

“So… You’re the last one,” said Jiang Fei with a cold grin, like the devil himself. Before, he might still be wary, but after Jiang Fei had faced and killed four Primordial Celestials, there was no reason for him to be scared of Lower Celestial tier NPCs, even if they were Primordials!

With eyes that could freeze someone with just a glare, Jiang Fei paced forward slowly, eerily to the dead Knight to retrieve his Dragon’s Bane.

“Die! You humans are not supposed to be this strong!” cried the last one. The Magician included, almost all Primordial Celestials had viewed Humans, or players, as nothing but weak, puny ants, incapable of performing such a feat as actually killing a Primordial Celestial! Today, that view had changed, inverted in fact! How did a Human, surrounded by five Primordial Celestials, kill everyone in a few seconds. He had even killed two of them in just one single attack!

Frightened, the Magician conjured a protective barrier before chanting an attack spell.

Holy Shield!

Holy Shield was a common Invulnerability skill that Jiang Fei had seen too many times. Jiang Fei himself had the skill embedded with his accessory. The skill, although powerful on its own, was incredibly weak against buff-removal skills.

The Magician chanted his spell frantically as that was the only thing he could do then, not knowing that the attack might actually harm Jiang Fei.

“Alright. It’s time to put you out of your misery,” said Jiang Fei. He hurled out Dragon’s Bane with the least amount of strength and killed the Magician without allowing him to finish his spell.

Ding!

After killing five Primordial Celestials, Jiang Fei received a system notification. The red Title “Celestial Slayer” glowed with an intense crimson light.
