Chapter 85

"Boom—!!!"

In the next instant,

the Ice Divine Dragon dove and struck.

It brutally pierced straight through the entire skeleton of the Bone Dragon.

A huge critical hit number, red as blood, immediately leaped above its head!

Meanwhile, the Bone Dragon's health bar slid instantly to the bottom.

Only a thin sliver, barely visible to the naked eye, remained!

"-490,000!!!"

"(Triple Critical Effect + Ice Dragon Absolute Sky 5000% Damage Bonus = 53x Damage)!!!"

"Bang!"

Jiang Li crashed to the ground.

At this moment, his mana had been completely exhausted.

An unprecedented sense of weakness surged in his heart; he quickly took out a mana potion and drank it.

Feeling his mana slowly rise, the powerlessness in his body finally eased considerably.

And at this time,

the pierced Bone Dragon slowly collapsed.

Amidst a spreading cloud of dust, it gradually weakened, reverting to the lich's humanoid true form.

"Haa..."

The lich slumped to the ground.

Sensing his soul fire,

an extreme cold qi clung above it.

No matter how the soul fire struggled, it could not break free from the freezing of this icy cold qi.

In just an instant,

the soul fire, once bright as a torch,

became faint as a flickering flame.

And for undead creatures, the vigor of the soul fire represented the strength of their life force.

And now, the soul fire swaying in the wind proved that its power and life had dropped to the critical point.

It seemed ready to dissipate at any moment.

"Ha... hahaha..."

"Hahahaha!"

Seeing the lich suddenly start laughing for no reason, Jiang Li couldn't help but grip the Ice Wheel Blade tightly.

He thought the opponent was about to use some skill again,

but the laughing lich weakly waved a hand, stopped laughing, and said to him: "No need to be on guard; the me of now... has reached the stage of an exhausted lamp and dried-up oil!"

"Exhausted lamp and dried-up oil?"

Jiang Li was puzzled; seeing the lich make no move, he finally asked: "As far as I know, liches possessing the trait of immortality can regenerate and resurrect infinitely before their phylactery is destroyed..."

"That's right."

"The lich's true form is the phylactery." The lich nodded with difficulty. "As long as the attack does not reach the phylactery, the lich will not suffer any harm..."

"But you are different."

"Your blade, the Ice Dragon Absolute Sky you just used... possesses the power to freeze everything!"

"Even my lich phylactery has been completely frozen, making it utterly unable to release regeneration and resurrection powers!"

Hearing this,

Jiang Li felt somewhat incredulous.

Ice Dragon Absolute Sky... can even freeze a phylactery?

But thinking of the Ice Wheel Blade's special nature... it is a Mythic-grade weapon; even while in its growth stage, it possesses incredible might, so freezing everything should be understandable.

"Let that go for now."

"When you summoned the Skeleton Guards and numerous undead monsters earlier, why didn't you take the opportunity to strike?"

"You should have had many chances to defeat me?"

Jiang Li shook his head.

Reorganizing his thoughts, he asked out the doubt that had always existed in his heart.

"Hehe."

"You are right." The lich smiled; its voice seemed no longer as low and hoarse as before; Jiang Li could even hear a trace of cheerfulness, joy, and relief in it.
