Chapter 683 (2/2)
”Roar! Roar!”
In pain, the ice dragon twisted its body and wobbled like a giant s.h.i.+p that tethered at the edge of capsizing. Its long tail smacked against the rocks and caused the crumbling mountain to explode into pieces!
The next moment, I heard the Phantom Wolf King letting out a scream of pain. The ice dragon had closed her eyes and slapped herself in the face, flattening my poor pet in the process! Motherf.u.c.ker!
Furious, I used Tenacity of the Dead and drank a health potion to pull myself over the 70% mark. Then, I jumped off the cliff myself and shot toward the ice dragon's head like a cannonball. Thanks to Dark Pupils, I could see that the wound on her head was her biggest weak spot. The moment I landed, I immediately stabbed it with Universe Break!
Crack!
23718!
The sword penetrated the giant dragon's head, but there was a problem. The Cyan Netherworld Sword wasn't nearly long enough to pierce her completely. Even if I managed to sink the weapon completely into her flesh, it was still as shallow as someone given acupuncture treatment with a needle. There was no way I could deal any real damage to her like this.
”Hah! Die!”
I let out a shout and used Burning Blade Slash, firing flaming sword energy directly into her brain. The skill was a ranged attack, so the blades of energy could travel quite far before coming to a stop. This time, I knew I did real damage to her because the damage numbers that appeared was unlike anything I had ever seen—
129393!
192875!
523892!
A chance like this—a direct attack into a boss's brain—was one of a kind, and the result was six-digit damage numbers per tick! And holy s.h.i.+t did it feel amazing!
The ice dragon screamed in pain, but she was a dragon, the race with the most formidable vitality in the world. It was highly unlikely that I could kill her this easily.
Thud!
My suspicions were proven true by the sound of my bones exploding. The ice dragon had repeated the same move she used on the Phantom Wolf King earlier and flattened me just like it did my poor pet! Holy s.h.i.+t!
Am I dead?
I felt unusually calm even though I died. It wasn't shameful to die to an Immortal Rank boss, and even Thunder, one of the Nine Sovereigns of Purgatory, was just an Immortal Rank boss. This ice dragon was at least as powerful as that b.a.s.t.a.r.d, if not stronger. Dying to her was more honorable than shameful for sure.
Unfortunately, it turned out that the heavens weren't accepting people today, because Immortality triggered and revived me to full health!
”Haha, I am immortal!”
I stabbed the ice dragon again and used Burning Blade Slash again. She was an ice-attribute monster, so fire-attribute attacks like Burning Blade Slash did the most damage to her!
”Roar roar…”
The ice dragon screamed again before turning 180 degrees around. I immediately lost my balance and fell toward the bottomless abyss! Seriously, I couldn't even see the bottom from up here! It took me over two hours to climb this freaking mountain, so heaven knows how tall it really was!
To make things worse, the ice dragon appeared right above me and swiped at me. I could even see her sinister gaze and disdainful grin!
Bang!
The moment I a.s.sumed a Guard stance, the claw struck me and sent me flying like a ball that just got hit by a baseball bat. Pain crawled throughout my body as I flew even faster toward the ground like a cannonball!
s.h.i.+t s.h.i.+t s.h.i.+t! I'm so dead!
I hurriedly activated s.h.i.+eld of the Evening. I could still save myself with the invincibility skill!
But it didn't work. The system notice said, ”Sorry, you cannot use the skill in your current state!”
……
Are you f.u.c.king kidding me? That ice dragon somehow sealed away my s.h.i.+eld of Evening?!
Suddenly, I came to the realization that no amount of luck was going to save me today. I was absolutely going to get crushed by this powerful ice dragon!
The ground quickly expanded before my eyes. Worse, my face was going to hit the ground first! Nooo, not the face!
Bang!
I slammed against the ground like a meteor and sank deep into the rock and snow. However, it looked like a miracle had happened again! Somehow, I had hit the jackpot twice—although in hindsight, a 40% chance to revive on death was a lot—and revived through Immortality again!
……
”Ughhhhh…”
Suddenly, I heard a painful groan coming from beneath me. Shocked, I looked down and realized that I was sitting atop an ugly-looking fellow, and the Cyan Netherworld Sword was stabbed right through his chest. The good news was that it was an undead, so the blow wouldn't kill him. Second, he was actually someone I knew.
”Ah? Teacher Rinser? Why are you here?” I exclaimed in shock.
Rinser glared at me while groaning, ”That's my question, you brat! Why did you fall from the sky? What the h.e.l.l were you doing?”
”No time. Let's get out of this hole first!”
I carried Rinser on my back and climbed up. When I grabbed the edge of the giant pit and pulled myself upward, I looked up and saw a pair of beautiful legs. It was a beautiful girl wearing a pair of dark cyan war boots and exquisite armor. Pieces of cloth were flapping at the edges of the armor scales. She smiled at me and asked,
”Where did you come from, big brother?”
