Bang!

After the Ice Qilin Horse fell heavily to the ground, it let out a shrill neigh as it was forced back into my mount slot. The Heaven-opening Tiger’s Spatial Rift had instantly gotten rid of my mount! This skill is way too OP! It actually sent me straight from the fourth floor to the seventh floor! I didn’t even need to clear the fifth or sixth floors!

This was actually a good thing though! Given my current strength, I should be able to explore the seventh floor without any problems. I also wouldn’t have to worry about any players stealing my monsters or sniping the boss. Furthermore, if my memory served me right, Lin Yixin had also been teleported to the seventh floor. Working together, even taking on the floor’s boss wasn’t that much of a pipedream!

......

I hefted my sword in my hand as I slowly rose up from my knees. After that, I carefully surveyed my surroundings and saw a black figure in front of me. It was a humanoid monster clad in metal armor with its back facing toward me. Its long black hair fluttered in the night wind as it let out a hoarse moan. I could see stark-white bones showing through the gaps in that armor and it was clear that this monster belonged to the Night Creatures. However, the most intimidating thing about this monster was the weapon that it was holding. It held a huge, two meter-long warmaul in its hands and the head of the maul was studded with sharp spikes.

I brandished the Cyan Netherworld Sword as I licked my lips and summoned the Phantom Wolf King. After that, I slashed forward with my sword and used Dragon Slaying Slash. The cyan blade of sword energy immediately illuminated the seventh floor, which had been blanketed in darkness, as it shot toward the undead monster.

Bang!

26615!

The dark shadow shuddered and swayed before it slowly turned around. A horrifying, half-rotted face framed by an ebon helmet greeted me. I shuddered as I stared at that terrifying face. Rotting strips of meat hung off its withered face and one of its eyeballs was dangling out of its socket. When it stretched open its rotted mouth and let out a shrill wail, a noxious stench wafted out from between its greenish-black teeth. I instantly activated my Dark Pupils, causing the monster’s stats to appear in front of me.

Dark Prisoner (Dread)

Level: 191

Attack: 6900~8250

Defense: 7700

HP: 800000

Skills: Darkness Slash, Deathblow, Warhammer Storm

Introduction: In life, these Dark Prisoners were puissant warriors who served directly under Ovia the Bloody Finger. When Ovia fell into the darkness, these loyal warriors fell with him into an endless hell. Undeath granted them great strength and they became fanatic zealots devoted to the Night Creatures’ cause. They guard the seventh to ninth floors of Nine Tigers Soul Suppressing Tower, and their great Attack and Defense is matched by their martial prowess. They’re a nightmare that any adventurer dreads meeting, and countless heroes have died underneath the heads of their huge mauls.

......

One of the dread-rank creatures from the upper floors was finally revealed. It was a Level 191 monster whose Defense was slightly lower than the Bronze Beast’s, but it compensated by having a far higher Attack! This Dark Prisoner also had very good attack skills, so it definitely wasn’t going to be some pushover. If I don’t approach this fight with extreme caution, I might very well slip up when I least expect it!

"Rooooaaarrr..."

The Dark Prisoner let out a howl of fury as it charged toward me. Sparks erupted from the head of the gigantic maul as it was dragged across the ground. My Dragon Slaying Slash had utterly enraged this beast seeing how fast it was closing the distance between us.

One couldn’t be careless when fighting high-level monsters like this, so I sprang into action before he got within striking range. I swiftly calculated his speed and the remaining distance before I waved a hand in the air. Divine energy surged out of my left arm as God Binding Art caused four divine weapons to form in the air and whistle sharply toward the Dark Prisoner. They perfectly encircled and bound the undead brute, instantly halting the Dark Prisoner in its tracks. These mobs weren’t bosses, so their resistances toward crowd-control skills like God Binding Art weren’t high.

I couldn’t help but grin as I activated Thunderous Charge. After I slammed into the monster, I immediately hit it with War Crush + Burning Blade Slash. Even though the Dark Prisoner’s Defense was quite high, it was no match for my ridiculous Attack. My clone and pet also attacked it furiously, and we quickly took out 400k of the monster’s HP.

I deliberately slowed down the tempo of my attacks. I wanted to see exactly how hard this Level 191 dread-rank monster could hit!

The Dark Prisoner let out an earth-shaking roar as my God Binding Art slowly dissipated. It fiercely swung its spiked maul toward my left shoulder. Black sword energy instantly surrounded the maul in the shape of the blade as it used its Darkness Slash skill!

Bang!

My body shuddered slightly as pain shot through my left shoulder! The Dark Prisoner had hit me so hard that a crack appeared in my left pauldron!

15081!

God damn, that is some crazy attack power!It hit me for so much fucking damage that it can start comparing notes with a boss monster!

It followed up that Darkness Slash with Deathblow that hit me for a good amount of damage as well. I decided that I had seen enough, and I swiftly surrounded the Dark Prisoner with my clone and the Phantom Wolf King. Perhaps we had triggered an attack based on our positioning, because the Dark Prisoner suddenly let out a furious roar and threw out its war maul. The gigantic spiked maul flew through the air as it whirled around the Dark Prisoner and smashed into all three of its attackers, causing all of us to lose a great amount of health.

Okay, the testing was definitely over! I had the measure of my foe now.

Taking on one or two Dark Prisoners at the same time wouldn’t be too much of a problem, but taking on three to four would push me to my limits. If I had to take on five or more, I would definitely die unless I activated Great Earth Transformation!

Pchhht!

I skewered the monster with my Universe Break and robbed it of its last slivers of health. After that, I felt warmth surge through my body as a large stream of experience filled my being. The Dark Prisoner had also dropped a magic stone, so I simply picked it up and threw it into my bag. After that, I waved a hand and absorbed the floating undead spark. It would be a waste for me to not absorb the spark of such a mighty undead creature. After all, I wasn’t content with just being an Asura. I wanted to become an Asura King, and eventually, an Asura God! When I finally reached that state, my Deterrence might very well do a lot more than reduce the stats of enemy undead by 15%!

......

I sent a message to Lin Yixin: "Yiyi, what are your coordinates? I’ll go to where you are! After that, we can team up and grind mobs!"

Lin Yixin swiftly replied: "Yeah, I’m currently at (18734, 9872). How about you?"

"I’m pretty close. Give me five minutes and I’ll be there!"

"You’re gonna charge over?"

"Charge your ass! There are so many Level 191 dread-rank monsters. They’ll stomp me to death! I... I’ll sneak over..."

I could practically see Lin Yixin’s smirk when she replied: "Okay! Hurry up and get over here!"

"Gotcha!"

I glanced at my mount’s cooldown timer. It would be seven minutes before I could summon the Ice Qilin Horse again, which would be about just enough time for me to use Earth Escape to reach Lin Yixin’s side and party up with her. I could see that she was in the corner of the third hallway, which wasn’t too far from where I was.

Whoosh!

I transformed into streaks of bloody light which burrowed into the ground. As I slowly crept forward, I saw that the area in front of me was packed with monsters. I snuck past them like a burglar as I carefully avoided coming in range of their aggro. If I got too close to any of these high-level dread-rank monsters, they would notice me even if I was using Earth Escape. If that happened, they would dig me up and eventually wear me down.

However, I was quite lucky that none of these monsters crossed paths with me. The moment I entered that dark corner, I could see Lin Yixin mounted on her ice horse. She seemed to be staring dazedly into the distance, as if she didn’t know where to go next. Meanwhile, her female ice dragon, Kris, circled around her protectively like a large dog protecting her beautiful master.

Whoosh!

As I burst out of the ground, I made a flourish with the Cyan Netherworld Sword as I arrived in front of Lin Yixin. I grinned at her and said, "Yiyi, it’s been a long time since I last saw you!"

"Oh really?" Lin Yixin dryly remarked as she rolled her eyes at me.

It was at this moment that a black shadow rushed over and the smell of fresh blood overwhelmed my sense. I didn’t see anything, but I could clearly feel a huge critter latch its fangs around my head!

Fucking hell, it was the ice dragon. As expected, she was still really "devoted" to me. Thank god I didn’t take her as my pet last time. If I had, I’d have become the butt of countless jokes.

Lin Yixin gently patted the female ice dragon on the jaw as she said, "Little dragon, stop biting him. Only the heavens know how long it’s been since he last took a bath, so this meat might not be too clean, you know..."

"Pooh!"

The Ice Dragon Kris immediately spat me out, but she still fiercely glared at me with her deep blue eyes.

......

I wiped off the ice dragon saliva on my face as I summoned the Ice Qilin Horse and flipped onto its back. After that, I summoned the Phantom Wolf King and brandished my sword fiercely as I bellowed, "Damn it! I’ll bear the consequences of whatever happens next, but I’m gonna teach this naughty dragon a lesson today, no matter what! Shit, I’ll teach you not to look down on me!"

Lini Yixin giggled. "Oh, come on! This is just how my little dragon greets you. I know it’s a little unique, but just bear with it for now. Anyhow, we have bigger fish to fry, don’t we? We need to hurry up and make our way to the boss of this floor and kill it before Vienna’s Sorrow and his lackeys get here. If we don’t get that Tiger Soul Essence before they arrive, we’d have wasted this free trip to the seventh floor."

"Yeah, that’s right. Let’s be off then. I’ll activate Martial God and you activate that secondary stratagem of yours, Intercourse. As long as we get the timing of our attacks right, we’ll only need twenty minutes at most to reach the boss."

"Okay."

I was a player who always chased after the highest damage and a belligerent little beauty like Lin Yixin was exactly the same type of player as me. As a result, Martial God was the best stratagem for us. This was further boosted by the existence of the secondary stratagem Intercourse, which boosted our damage to ridiculous levels if we managed to strike the same target at the same time.

......

We saw a Dark Prisoner dragging its heavy maul along the ground as it circled the area. This would serve as our first test dummy!

"Attack!"

"Alright!"

I waved a hand at the monster and successfully restricted it with my God Binding Art. After that, I activated Thunderous Charge and Lin Yixin activated Charge a second after me as we rushed toward the hapless monster.

Crack!

After we slashed it a few times, we dealt around 30000 damage to it. The Dark Prisoner only had about 800000 HP, so our DPS clearly wasn’t cutting it. Lin Yixin fluttered her eyelashes at me coquettishly as she said, "Little Cheat, where’s our synergy. We need to match the timing of our blows!"

"Yeah, let's use our Break skills!"

"Okay!"

Flaming cyan energy started swirling around my sword as I activated Universe Break as a similar swirl of burning energy appeared around Lin Yixin’s sword as well. Our timing and synergy were excellent!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Two swords slammed into the Dark Prisoner, causing a huge explosion of light. The two dazzling explosions of light tore away at the Dark Prisoner’s chest as our swords skewered him like hot knives through butter. The effect of Intercourse had procced!

Bang!

A damage number that caused both our jaws to drop open flew up above the Dark Prisoner’s head.

265167!

Even though it hadn’t been a critical hit, it had still dealt this much damage! What a terrifying strike!

I couldn’t help but grin as I matched Lin Yixin’s tempo and hit it again with a basic attack. As our swords struck the monster, purple energy tore into the monster’s chest again. We had successfully procced Intercourse again, dealing another 180000 damage! That was plenty scary for a basic attack!

"Hehe, if we can keep this up, killing one Level 191 dread-rank mob will only take ten seconds!" Lin Yixin said with a saccharine sweet smile

"Yeah!" I replied as I nodded my head. Being able to grind with a girl as pretty and intelligent as this was truly one of the greatest luxuries in this game...
