Chapter 186: The Undying Soul! Humanoid Skill! The Red-Dressed Lady Acknowledges Her Master!

The fallout of the matter exceeded Luo Chenyu's imagination.

When he got up past mid-morning, his phone was already drowned in countless messages.

Especially the class group chat—the messages were straight up 999+!

Luo Chenyu only looked for a little while before giving up on reading all those flattering words.

Only the private chats had a mere handful of people.

Mainly because he didn't have many friends to begin with—Zhou Xiaoying had also sent him a congratulatory message, and invited him to dinner together that evening.

Luo Chenyu didn't refuse outright, but replied with just two words: "Tentative."

After all, he wasn't sure about his own schedule either.

What surprised him was that Facing Ye Xingtong hadn't sent him any message at all—most likely because the closed-door training was managed very strictly.

Of course…

None of this mattered!

What mattered most was that he was going to challenge the Third-Turn Trial!

Luo Chenyu stood inside his room, gazing at the black-and-white photo on the wall—the photo showed a husband and wife smiling at each other.

"If you two were still alive, you'd probably be very comforted, wouldn't you?"

The next moment.

Luo Chenyu vanished from the room.

When he appeared again, he was already in a dim, grey space—boundless, with no edge in sight.

There was nothing at all in the space.

Even beneath his feet was a stretch of grey dimness.

30-second countdown, begin!

Previously, Luo Chenyu had once searched online for information related to 【Undying Will】, but found nothing—seems to be an extremely rare quest.

Endless spectres' psychic attack!

Luo Chenyu looked at his shield, wondering whether it could withstand psychic attacks.

Regardless.

Luo Chenyu still layered two more 【Steel Shields】 on himself.

The countdown drew to its end.

"Play it safe!!"

Thinking it through, Luo Chenyu added on 【Defensive Stance】, which had a relatively shorter cooldown.

Facing unknown spectres, the first wave must be used to gauge their strength, then a targeted strategy can be devised.

3!

2!

1!

In the grey space, yin-wind rolled up layer upon layer of black clouds—quite giving off the feeling of dark clouds pressing down on a city about to crumble.

"So cold!"

After becoming a professional, his physique was worlds apart from before, yet he could still feel the chill of the yin-wind.

Just then.

Luo Chenyu's gaze sharpened—within his sight, countless translucent shadows dropped down from the black clouds.

"Woooooo…"

Eerie low moans, accompanied by the yin-wind, drifted into Luo Chenyu's ears.

In an instant, a heavy, groggy feeling in his head followed.

True Damage -90!

True Damage -90!

True Damage -85!

……

Luo Chenyu shook his head sharply, dispelling the groggy feeling in his mind.

Seeing the type of damage he had taken, his head was full of doubt.

"Psychic attacks deal true damage?"

Honestly, without true damage reduction, 100 points each time… stacked up it was still no small amount of damage.

But under his blood pool of over 400,000, it didn't seem to be much of a problem.

Most importantly, taking psychic attacks could also trigger 【Defensive Stance】's effect of bouncing back HP.

"That's it?"

Hundreds and thousands of spectres attacked, yet they couldn't deal any lethal damage to Luo Chenyu—even under the passive recovery of 【Defensive Stance】 and 【Life Goddess's Shelter】, his HP remained full.

Luo Chenyu smiled faintly, his Eye of Insight looking toward a spectre in the distance.

【Trial · Wraith Spectre】

Grade: Special Elite

Level: LV. 55

HP: 1,549,910

MP: 6,495,000

Strength: 1200; Constitution: 5700; Agility: 7200; Spirit: 12000

Skills: Mana Drain, Absolute Dodge, Spectre Roar, Ultimate · HP Swap, Ultimate · Phantom Array.

Strength: Tier 5!

Note: This monster ignores all physical damage (Tier 9 judgment)!

………………

"Huh!!"

Luo Chenyu narrowed his eyes. "It can reflect damage, which means... I can't use physical attacks, but some special damage can still trigger it, right!"

Taking hits passively for an hour...

That isn't his style at all.

If someone maliciously hits him even once, he'd cling to them relentlessly. Although he can't use physical attack abilities, it seems there's now a chance to counterattack!

Nowadays, he possesses quite a few additional sources of bonus damage.

For example, true damage, blood-fury damage, aurora damage, and so on.

The wraith is a special elite monster, but its HP is relatively very, very low—lower even than that of some Tier-5 professionals.

"If we're gonna try, then let's try!"

The next moment.

Luo Chenyu moved, activating the 【Void Step】 skill while enduring countless instances of true damage.

Brutal Charge!
