Chapter 661

Everything around was reduced to ashes!

A terrifying damage value flashed at the center of the explosion.

[-10.9 billion (Weakness Attack/Critical Hit)]

"Benefactor Li Yao,"

"if this monk's perception is correct,"

"this demon's body is covered by an inexplicably terrifying evil intent."

This was the exact message Mishaluo had passed to him through Hearing Lingxin.

At the time, he had found it a bit strange.

No matter how one looked at it, Evelynn didn't seem like a creature with endurance as her main attribute.

That kind of spike, every time it was released, carried intense energy fluctuations.

And those piercing skills and the heart-shaped control/damage-boosting skill—

no matter how you looked at it, she should be a creature specializing in mental attributes!

Combined with Mishaluo's telepathic message,

it wasn't hard to guess

that Evelynn's body surface must be wrapped in a layer of unknown energy

that acted as damage reduction.

It must be the so-called [Pain].

At that moment, Li Yao changed his tactics,

shifting his target from Swain to Evelynn.

He didn't know how to break through this defensive energy,

but he could launch an attack from the inside!

A powerhouse like Evelynn

couldn't possibly not have a trump card for saving her life.

Targeting this trump card,

Li Yao finalized this plan.

But with Evelynn's speed,

in a normal engagement, he couldn't force out her trump card.

Only when she went to protect Swain would he have this opportunity!

Swain knew his intelligence,

so when [Shackles] was about to end,

Swain would definitely make Evelynn give up the attack and retreat to protect him.

[Reshape]—

a skill carried by the [Backtracking Crystal]—

could reset a target to its state from the previous second.

It wasn't movement,

but time backtracking targeted at a single entity.

In other words,

it wouldn't collide with objects!

The self-destruct spiders exploded directly inside Evelynn's body.

Ten self-destruct spiders—

sixty times the main attribute damage

poured out from within.

A power that destroyed the heavens and earth—

everything in the underground space where Dream City was located turned to dust,

leaving a layer of dust and fog in the air.

The energy blew up this underground cavern, expanding outward to form a circular space.

Swain was blasted by the shockwaves into the distant rock wall,

while Li Yao stood calmly in the air,

looking at the mass of purple blood floating in the center of the space.

The liquid was pulsating, continuously pushing out spikes.

With ten billion damage released inside her body,

Li Yao had to admit that the Demon race's life force was terrifying.

At this time,

the duration of [Shackles] had already ended,

and his physical energy was nearly depleted.

"Zheng!"

The Infinity Edge swung in the air, pointing toward the ground.

Li Yao stepped on the chessboard, walking step by step toward Evelynn.

A long staff appeared in his other hand—

a legendary weapon Li Yao had kept in his storage ring.

It gradually turned into starlight in his hand, surging toward the Infinity Edge.

In an instant,

the Infinity Edge shone brilliantly.

[Endless Slash (Active): Sacrifice a weapon of legendary grade or higher to deal a destructive blow to the target unit; specific damage depends on the grade of the sacrifice; cooldown 60 minutes.]

"Swain, what are you standing there for?"

All around,

a weak female voice rang out.

"Why don't you hurry up and stop him?"

The Infinity Edge swallowed all the energy of the legendary weapon, the light condensing and extending from the tip of the blade until it became a giant light sword hundreds of meters long.

Even though Li Yao was hovering in the air, the light sword still dragged on the ground.

With every step Li Yao took, the trench carved into the ground by the light sword lengthened by an inch.

Cold murderous intent shrouded that mass of purple blood mist.

"Swain, I'm going to kill you."

The weak voice gradually revealed terror.

Just as Swain made a move,

the Nashor Dragon appeared from the water domain,

its circular, hideous mouthparts aiming at him, expanding and contracting.

Just as before,

destroying the maze would summon the [Hunter].

Three eyeballs appeared at the edge of the cavern, no one knew when.

Li Yao hadn't swung his sword until now

precisely because he was waiting for these guys!

"Zheng!"

The light sword flashed past,

sweeping a golden disk across the entire space in the air.

The golden disk swept over the mass of purple liquid and over the three [Eyes of Destruction] in the distance.

Everything was cut in two.

[-7.5 billion (Critical Hit/Weakness Damage/Fatal Blow!/Execution!)]

At the same time the damage appeared on the liquid,

the three eyeballs were slashed in half,

eventually turning into black dots and vanishing.

[Over-level kill of a Hegemon-level creature, Suffering Demon · Evelynn, Experience +70%]

Golden light flickered,

and like a gentle spring breeze blowing through his brain, Li Yao felt a sense of clarity.

His energy recovered slightly.

"Hahahahaha?!"

"You're done for, you're done for!"

At this moment,

Swain let out a manic laugh.

He attempted to see an expression of fear or confusion on Li Yao's face,

but the next moment,

a mouthpart full of sharp teeth and dripping with saliva came into view.

Time seemed to stand still.

Li Yao just looked at Swain indifferently.

Despair.

Terror.

Acceptance.

Swain suddenly grinned hideously, looking back into Li Yao's eyes.

The highest art of strategy and scheming

is to place oneself within the layout!

Hahaha!

"Crunch!"

[-3.6 billion (True Damage/Fatal Blow!/Execution!)]

"Laughing?" Li Yao checked the system panel.

He had indeed killed him.

Why would he show that kind of expression?

At this very moment,

only two treasure chests remained quietly floating in the air in this space.

The two great demons, Swain and Evelynn, were dead beyond any doubt!

There was absolutely no possibility of any accidents!

Kha'Zix picked up the treasure chests and brought them to Li Yao.

Li Yao put them away,

frowning as he looked at the place where Swain had been swallowed.

He knew very well

that Swain's trump card wasn't the Suffering Demon;

he must have hidden something else!

But now that he himself was dead,

why did he still have a bad premonition?!

Li Yao was stunned for a moment,

then smiled, "Forget it, now is not the time to think about these things."

"Both demons are dead beyond any doubt."

"What I need to do now is find a good place to see what's in these two treasure chests."

Li Yao turned around

and walked toward the direction of the maze.

This space had been destroyed, and the maze entrance had disappeared,

but Li Yao remembered which direction it was in.

As long as he destroyed the surface rocks, he would be able to see the maze passage.

As he walked,

Li Yao suddenly stopped,

his excited expression replaced by gravity.

"Why would I have this thought?"

"Clearly..."

"it hasn't ended yet!"

Li Yao turned his head abruptly

to look at the place where Swain and Evelynn had been annihilated.

Yellow dust, all he saw were broken stones and ruins.

Nothing at all?

"I really was overthinking it."

"Let's meet up with them first, then go open the treasure chests!"
