Chapter 876 Going All Ou (1/2)
The stone tablet predicted the battle pattern of the remnant of the will completely.
At the start, the stone tablet had told Lin Huang that the chances of the remnant of the will initiating a fight was slim as it would want to minimize exhausting its energy. Its likeliest attack would be to use the dragon carca.s.s to drive the monster horde to attack him.
As expected, all it did was to hold back the dragon carca.s.s's Holy Power to allow the monster horde to get closer to Lin Huang so that they could initiate an attack.
However, Lin Huang was smarter than it was. He entered the range of the Holy Power as well as summoning his Monster Cards to fight the monsters.
If it were not for him wanting to obtain more monster carca.s.ses and crystal cores, in reality, Lin Huang would not bother summoning Bai and the rest. All he had to do was to hide in the coverage of the Holy Power since the monsters outside would not be able to touch him at all. He could just activate his Dark Mirror for long-distance attacking.
Meanwhile, the remnant of the will would speed up the drain on itself no matter which form of energy it was using. It was draining for it to suppress the dragon carca.s.s's Holy Power too, but it was just a minor depletion. However, the more it suppressed the Holy Power, the more draining it would be.
The remnant of the will had no solution to Lin Huang hiding in the range of the Holy Power. Lin Huang seemed to have a rather powerful defense against the Holy Power whereby he was not affected just by staying in its coverage.
Feeling helpless, all it could do was watch at that moment. It hoped the monsters could kill Lin Huang's summoning beasts as soon as they could to weaken his ability.
However, Bai and the rest were all triple mutated. Moreover, with the effects of the Rebirth Card and the Blood Thickening Card, their ancient beast bloodlines and G.o.d's blood made them the top of the food chain among the immortal-level monsters.
The killing was one-sided when they encountered advanced-stage ascendance-level monsters.
Although there were the occasional monsters on par with an immortal-level rank-9, Lancelot, who possessed Sword Dao Territory, would annihilate them if they were not already killed by the first hit from Bai and the rest.
Now that Lancelot had elevated to pseudo-mythical-level Ruthless Sword Dominator, the radius of his territory had doubled to 18 kilometers. Anything within his territory would not be able to escape from him. He did not even need to move to kill by swinging his sword from where he was. His attack strength was just as powerful as Killer's who was also on pseudo-mythical-level. Even a triple mutated immortal-level rank-9 monster could be killed by one swing of a sword as long as the monster did not possess some unique defense ability or technique.
Seeing that the battle had turned one-sided and the ma.s.sacre of the monsters went on for a few hours, the remnant of the will finally realized that such a level of the monster horde was not a threat to Lin Huang at all.
Initially, it thought that the monster horde would drain the Life Power of Lin Huang's summoning beasts even if they could not kill them. However, the Life Power in the summoning beasts maintained at their peak even a few hours after that; there was no decline in their Life Power at all. It then realized that the human standing before it was tougher than it imagined.
”I thought the remnant of a true G.o.d-level powerhouse's will would be compelling, but it seems like I've overestimated you,” Lin Huang teased, ”I can't believe that you need to use the dragon carca.s.s to draw the monster horde to attack me! Didn't you inherit the Nightmare Dragon's reification ability? I'll definitely run away if you reified a human immortal-level monster horde.”
”There's no need to do that. Your summoning beasts will definitely not be able to handle the next wave of monsters!” As soon as the remnant of the will's voice echoed, the monsters that crawled out of the volcano beneath the giant dragon carca.s.s elevated to peak-stage ascendance-level. Their aura was on par with immortal-level rank-9 monsters.
Sensing Lin Huang's aura, the monsters began to join in the battle with Bai and the rest like they were rabid.
'It interfered with the release of the monsters directly as expected.' Lin Huang was not surprised by that.
