Chapter 460: Eagle Kingdom reinforcements arrive

Neviss had been on guard against this giant summoned beast,

but this guard

was limited only to its silence skill,

which was why he dared to release his ultimate move against it without any worries.

When the fear state ended, Neviss was already inside the Devourer's mouth.

"Damn it!"

Powerful combat instincts

made Neviss reflexively activate an ultimate-level shield skill.

The next second,

golden light flared brilliantly.

Even deep inside the Devourer's mouth,

Neviss was still blinded by this golden light.

He could feel that the giant summoned beast that had swallowed him was still growing in size!

"So what?"

"Ant!"

"If you have the guts, kill me!"

In the 【Ascension】 state, the Devourer bit down.

First came a 'crack', the sound of the shield shattering,

followed by the gruesome sound of bones being crushed.

"Crunch, crunch."

【- (True Damage!)】

【Void Devourer completes evolution devouring, gaining maximum health.】

Neviss was dead,

dead as a doornail!

In the Ascension state, one bite dealt 80 million true damage,

swallowing both the man and the shield in one gulp.

Neviss's aura vanished completely.

The other professionals stood frozen in place, as if struck by a paralysis spell.

Even though they had infinitely raised their expectations for Li Yao's combat power,

they never would have thought in their wildest dreams

that Neviss, the strongest among them, would die at the hands of this Fourth-Turn professional!

"Good guy," Xue Xue Jiulan couldn't calm down at all.

As Li Yao's teacher,

she dared to say that she was the person who understood Li Yao's strength best here.

But even she

had at most thought that Li Yao could barely hold Neviss off!

Thinking that Li Yao had killed Neviss, the ninth seat,

while she and General Sikong Ming were being suppressed to death by Kujō In,

Xue Xue Jiulan felt she had lost all face.

They say the student surpasses the master,

and she had long envisioned the day Li Yao would surpass her,

but wasn't this too fast?

Kujō In's eyes were filled with horror.

Now, only one thought filled her mind:

Neviss actually died?

Dead?

Did that mean

the Dragon Kingdom Chief also had the ability to kill her?

For a moment,

the desire to avenge her son faded significantly.

She couldn't help but ask herself:

Should she flee?

Give up on this operation?

The four Seventh-Turn professionals fighting Hua Hua Qianshuang

now felt like they had thorns on their backs.

They were already struggling against the Dragon Kingdom's Frost Empress, being suppressed the whole time,

waiting for Neviss to subdue the Dragon Kingdom Chief and free them up to help deal with the Frost Empress together.

Reversing the heavens?

Instead, the Dragon Kingdom Chief had freed himself?

If he suddenly attacked and joined forces with the Frost Empress, who could stop them?!

They could think of it,

and Hua Hua Qianshuang could certainly think of it too.

After a brief surprise, Hua Hua Qianshuang's mouth curled slightly.

However, she also knew

that for Li Yao to kill Neviss, he must have paid a great price.

Rather than having him join the battlefield, it would be better to take this opportunity to flee.

Thinking of this, Hua Hua Qianshuang said:

"Li Yao, don't worry about us; take this opportunity to use a teleportation item to return to the Dragon Kingdom."

"As long as you leave, they will abandon this operation."

Li Yao held a formation disk and said, "I've already tried; the teleportation item is useless."

"This place must have been set with a prohibition."

Hua Hua Qianshuang raised an eyebrow.

She had guessed correctly.

From the very beginning, the Eagle Kingdom had no good intentions.

Even if the Eagle Kingdom's professionals were fine!

Even without rewards like the 【Tower of Breaking Limits】!

From the start, they had intended to keep Li Yao, this world-renowned Dragon Kingdom genius, here permanently.

Her eyes turned cold instantly.

"Then you rest first; once you recover, come help me kill all these people!"

As soon as these words were spoken,

the four Seventh-Turn professionals' pupils shrank,

and their attacks became timid.

Li Yao chuckled.

"Alright, Senior Hua."

He had just used 【Spirit-Devouring Windbreaker】, sacrificing two units of spiritual items to recover 30% of his mana.

Even if he attacked now, it would be absolutely no problem.

But he wasn't in a hurry.

Just standing there was enough to put infinite pressure on the four Seventh-Turn professionals.

Leave it to Senior Hua first;

he only needed to find the opportunity for a fatal strike.

Just then,

Li Yao suddenly frowned.

Being in the Eagle Kingdom's territory,

Li Yao naturally couldn't be completely at ease.

Tiger Armor had not participated in the battle, hiding underground to be responsible for scouting intelligence around this mountain peak.

Just now,

Tiger Armor sent a thought:

At the foot of the mountain, dozens of top-tier professionals had arrived,

and the weakest among them were at least Sixth-Turn!

Li Yao looked at the battlefield, not making it public immediately.

A few breaths later,

"Freeze!"

Hua Hua Qianshuang raised her hand and waved,

scattering shimmering frost.

One of the Seventh-Turn professionals, a black muscular man from the India Kingdom, instantly used a displacement skill to pull away.

Li Yao shot out.

"He's coming!" the black man's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly warned the others.

The other three Seventh-Turn professionals surrounded him instantly.

Li Yao, however, did not attack the black man.

He slashed with his sword,

which was dodged by one of the Seventh-Turn professionals.

"Boom!"

The earth shattered, and earth spikes shot into the sky.

Li Yao said coldly:

"Senior Hua! Go!"

Although there was doubt in Hua Hua Qianshuang's eyes,

she still followed Li Yao's lead.

With a wave of her hand,

the ground froze, rapidly spreading toward Kujō In's direction.

"Go!"

Xue Xue Jiulan and General Sikong Ming both heard Li Yao's voice just now,

and taking advantage of the gap while Kujō In was dodging Hua Hua Qianshuang's attack,

they shot off toward the distance.

The five Seventh-Turn professionals gathered together,

their expressions ugly.

Kujō In realized,

"It must be the Eagle Kingdom's reinforcements!"

"Neviss is dead now; if we can't take down the Dragon Kingdom Chief,"

"those guys from the Eagle Kingdom will definitely not let it go, and might even take their anger out on us!"

"We must pursue!"

The few of them looked at each other,

and chased in the direction Li Yao and the others had left.

There were Eagle Kingdom reinforcements at the foot of the mountain,

and five Seventh-Turn professionals at the summit.

Kujō In didn't believe it;

could the Dragon Kingdom Chief really escape!?
