Chapter 221
A flying insect rushed toward the black-robed man at extreme speed.
The black-robed man wanted to avoid it, but he had already been taunted by the Void Sea Insect, uncontrollably slashing his dual blades.
【-0】
As long as a Void Chess Piece existed, the Void Sea Insect could not be attacked!
Taking advantage of the moment the black-robed man attacked, Li Yao slashed his sword onto the opponent.
【-】
Needle Cluster Shot.
The second stage hit.
The third stage was ready!
"Too strong."
Hiding behind a large tree, Zhang Zhang Yucheng felt his throat tighten and couldn't help but speak.
He couldn't even see their movements clearly.
He only heard a series of clashing metal sounds and saw Li Yao constantly darting and flashing in the air.
"I've only seen people fight across tiers, but I've never seen someone cross several tiers. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never believe it."
Zhang Zhang Yucheng dared to assert:
If he joined their battlefield, he wouldn't even be able to hold on for a second!
The three of them didn't have much of a gap in strength, but facing absolute speed, Shou Hunting Xixia couldn't use her skills, and he would be no exception.
"With this kind of level gap, anyone would lose their will to fight. Only Li Yao-kun could achieve this step."
Kujo Mise looked at Zhang Zhang Yucheng and said lightly: "I advise you not to take Li Yao-kun as an opponent. If you're not careful, your Dao heart will be damaged."
Zhang Zhang Yucheng was stunned, then gave a bitter smile.
"Miss Mise is right. I was indeed overthinking it before."
Witnessing this battle,
Zhang Zhang Yucheng completely recognized the gap between himself and Li Yao.
He no longer saw him as a peer to chase, but as a leader of the younger generation.
As long as he followed Li Yao's path, following closely behind,
his sword
would eventually have its use!
With his thoughts cleared, Zhang Zhang Yucheng's scabbard emitted a dull sword hum.
A radiance covered him; Zhang Zhang Yucheng's eyes were clear, and there was no more confusion in them!
Seeing this, Kujo Mise couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"He comprehended a skill?"
"The Dragon Kingdom's prodigies are truly hard to fathom."
The evolved Zhang Zhang Yucheng looked at the battlefield again, his vision much clearer, discovering many things he hadn't noticed before.
His brows furrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "Li Yao's situation doesn't seem very good."
"Why?"
Kujo Mise asked hurriedly.
"Don't look at how Li Yao hasn't taken damage yet. Every time they make contact, Li Yao has to release a skill, and even to block the opponent's attack, he's forced to summon his summons to take the hit."
"On the contrary, that Fifth-Turn professional has only released a few basic skills until now."
Zhang Zhang Yucheng's expression was serious. If Li Yao couldn't deal with the enemy, the three of them wouldn't even have the qualifications to make a move!
If Li Yao fell, everyone would die!
"Miss Mise, how much time is left?"
"Two minutes."
At this time, Shou Hunting Xixia ended her stealth and revealed her form.
Kujo Mise: "How is it? Did it go smoothly?"
"Yes."
Shou Hunting Xixia nodded repeatedly.
"I hope it can help Li Yao."
"Kid, no one can help you now!"
The black-robed man was in absolute control at this moment, his dual blades swinging out afterimages, constantly slashing toward Li Yao.
Most of Li Yao's skills were on cooldown.
Except for the Devourer, all the chess pieces had joined the battlefield, and only then could he barely cope.
But there was an absolute gap in agility attributes between the two sides; no matter how he attacked, he couldn't touch the black-robed man once.
And as long as a chess piece took one ordinary attack, it would be at half health or even near death.
Fortunately,
the black-robed man knew Li Yao was a Summoner, so every attack was aimed at Li Yao, and only when he was truly impatient would he swing a blade at the summons.
"Clang!"
Li Yao took a slash.
"Swish," the black-robed man used a displacement skill for the first time.
His figure appeared instantly behind Li Yao.
A chill struck at his neck.
Li Yao's eyes narrowed.
"Vanguard!"
A behemoth descended suddenly.
The Cloud Top Chess Player's summoned creatures were different from other Summoners.
They didn't need any chanting or reading time; with a thought, he could summon them.
This was the reason Li Yao could tangle with the opponent for so long.
Every instant summon could produce an unexpected effect!
The Vanguard landed in front of Li Yao; to avoid being crushed by the Vanguard, the black-robed man had to give up this attack and retreat temporarily.
However,
Li Yao clearly wouldn't give up this opportunity!
"Charger!"
The Vanguard aimed at the black-robed man and charged horizontally.
"Stupid!" The black-robed man smiled contemptuously, setting his stance to release an explosive skill.
If this large summon dared to charge over, he could kill it with one blade!
"Swish."
Li Yao swapped positions with the Vanguard.
"This move again. Do you want to die that much?"
Looking at Li Yao in front of him, the black-robed man revealed a bloodthirsty smile, his dual blades merging to draw a full moon in the air.
【Heart-Protecting Mirror】
An invincibility skill, in Li Yao's eyes, had always been an offensive means!
Facing the opponent's dual blades, the Inheritor's Sword was raised high.
Needle Cluster Shot, third stage!
Facing this sword, the black-robed man couldn't ignore it, his pupils shrinking violently.
He prepared to release a displacement skill, only to find he had just used it and it was on cooldown.
This ability to seize opportunities—
"Is this kid really a rookie professional who isn't even Third-Turn?"
A wave of energy rippled out.
"Clang!"
A piercing bell sound rang out.
With the black-robed man as the center, an invisible energy swept out.
The long sword fell.
"It's over."
Li Yao said softly.
At this very moment, under his step-by-step guidance, the black-robed man finally stepped onto the trap he had set.
"It's over? Who gave you that confidence?"
Under the invisible energy, the black-robed man's speed reached its limit.
Li Yao's carefully set sword strike was actually twisted away by him relying on his own speed!?

Needle Cluster Shot, third stage.
Slashed at empty air!
Li Yao revealed a look of surprise for the first time, as if he couldn't believe the scene before him.
"Are you surprised?"
The black-robed man held his dual blades and walked slowly toward Li Yao.
That invisible energy field moved with his footsteps.
"Don't be surprised. Being able to force out my domain skill, you can already be proud of yourself."
"Domain?" Li Yao asked, puzzled.
"That's right."
Seeming to feel victory was in his grasp, the black-robed man had a sudden burst of kindness and answered Li Yao's question.
"Only those who reach 70% in their Fifth-Turn breakthrough mission can comprehend a domain skill."
"Domain skills are all different, and my domain..."
"... s to amplify my agility attribute while lowering the enemy's agility attribute."
Hearing this, Li Yao raised his hand slightly, his expression sinking.
His movements had slowed down a lot.
His agility attribute had decayed by more than 30%!
"So, how much longer do you think you can hold on?" The black-robed man sneered, slowly raising his gilded scimitar and pointing it at Li Yao.
"Swish!"
The black-robed man pulled out an afterimage and attacked Li Yao fiercely.
The two already had a gap in agility attributes; now, with one decreasing and one increasing, the gap was like a chasm!
Li Yao had almost no reaction before the black-robed man appeared in front of him.
Without any hesitation,
the scimitar swiped toward his neck.
"Pfft!"
A sound of a blade entering flesh rang out.
"What?!"
The black-robed man's expression changed in shock.
What did his blade cut into?
Was this a skill?
【-】
The Devourer, in stealth mode, was attacked and revealed its form.
The Devourer didn't take any defensive action.
This blade was deeply embedded in the Devourer's body.
The black-robed man thought, "Not good," and hurriedly pulled out his scimitar.
A shadow struck.
No!
He had to abandon his weapon!
The black-robed man realized suddenly.
"I said, it's over."
Li Yao's indifferent voice rang in his ear.
"Crack!"
A crisp sound.
