Chapter 109: Slaying the Lei Yan Demon Dragon Beast!

【Skill "Dead Thorn Rock Spear" leveled up to Lv. 5!】

【Skill "Dead Thorn Rock Spear" leveled up to Lv. 10!】

……

【Skill "Dead Thorn Rock Spear" leveled up to Lv. 24 (current cap)!】

In just a few seconds,

Lin Mo had instantly raised his newly acquired skill to its maximum level!

【A power unlike any before surged through "Earth Shield Art"】

【"Earth Shield Art" looked at the arrogant demon dragon beast, a sneer curling its lips.】

【"Earth Shield Art" spoke deeply: Master taught me to pierce, Brother taught me to spin… now, prepare to die!】

【"Fireball Art": Huh? Didn't know you were quite the show-off too, little brother.】

【"Lightning Strike Art": No chatter. Attack.】

Lin Mo's lips curled slightly upward.

"Xiao Tu, let it see what true wrath of the earth looks like."

Hum—!!!

The air shuddered violently.

Countless earth-colored elements surged and converged wildly around Lin Mo.

A piercing wind-splitting sound rang out.

The earth elements spun at furious speed.

Soon,

a three-meter-long spear of dark brown rock slowly took shape beside Lin Mo.

Its shaft and tip were covered in spiral grooves.

Far away,

when Han Mengyao saw the spiral-patterned rock spear, she froze.

"This… is this…"

"These spiral patterns… Dead Thorn Rock Spear?!"

Hearing her sister's voice, Han Mengqing asked confusedly:

"What spear? Dead chicken?"

Han Mengyao shot her a glare, then took a deep breath:

"Thorn! It's 'thorn' as in spiky thorn!"

"This is the universally recognized strongest single-target skill among mid-tier earth skills!"

"Its mastery difficulty is no lower than the previous 【Earth Shaking Mountain Tremor】."

Speaking of which,

Han Mengyao gazed at the boy in the sky, her eyes filled with the look of someone staring at a monster:

"Insane…"

"Just mastered the strongest mid-tier earth AoE, and now the strongest mid-tier earth single-target?"

"Even a reincarnated Law God couldn't do better."

Chu Lingxuan gazed up at Lin Mo, her eyes sparkling with admiration:

"I don't understand any of it… but Lin Mo sure seems incredibly powerful…"

As the three girls stood in shock,

Lin Mo in the sky moved.

His eyes turned icy, and his right hand slashed forward sharply!

"Go!"

Boom—!!!

A thunderous detonation erupted.

The fully charged 【Dead Thorn Rock Spear】 shot toward the demon dragon beast.

So fast it created visible sonic shockwaves in the air!

"Huh?"

The Lei Yan Demon Dragon Beast hadn't even reacted yet.

The next instant,

Bang!!

The rock spear pierced clean through the demon dragon beast's body, exploding a deep crater behind it.

"Aaaah—!!!!"

The demon dragon beast let out a horrific scream.

A terrifying blood wound, half a meter in diameter, appeared on its chest!

Its health bar dropped drastically from this single strike.

"Holy shit!!!"

Han Mengqing cursed loudly, jumping up in excitement: "It broke defense! Broke it bad! One hit took off 10% HP?!"

Han Mengyao's pupils shrank slightly.

Though she'd anticipated it, witnessing such terrifying damage still made her heart race.

Is this the true power of 【Dead Thorn Rock Spear】?

Is this the ultimate physical penetration?

In mid-air.

Lin Mo looked at that terrifying damage and was quite satisfied.

Truly a skill that ignores 70% defense.

Against such a high-defense BOSS, it is simply a god-tier technique.

【'Earth Shield Art', looking at its own masterpiece, had now swelled to the extreme.】

【'Earth Shield Art': Hahaha! What Demon Dragon? Before Second Brother's spear, they are all glass cannons!】

【'Earth Shield Art' turned to 'Fireball Art': Big Brother! Look at my spin, look at my force—did I not disgrace you?】

【'Fireball Art' snorted coldly: So-so. Ultimately, it is still because this Seat taught well.】

【'Lightning Strike Art': Hmm, this damage is indeed not bad.】

Lin Mo glanced at the skill panel.

The cooldown of 【Dead Thorn Rock Spear】 is 30 seconds.

The equipment he wore, plus the BUFF provided by Han Mengqing, totaled 75% cooldown reduction.

That is to say, he could fire one shot every 7.5 seconds.

Lin Mo did not hesitate for a moment.

He looked at the three women, shouted directly, and the Flame Wind Wings behind him trembled violently, lifting his height again:

"You three hold it off for me, buy me cooldown time; it won't survive 2 minutes!"

Hearing Lin Mo's words, the three women instantly snapped back to their senses.

"Understood!"

Chu Lingxuan let out a delicate shout, raised her great shield, and charged recklessly toward the enraged Demon Dragon Beast.

"Holy Light Taunt!"

Buzz!

Golden light flared on her body, forcibly attracting the Demon Dragon Beast's attention.

Han Mengyao was not to be outdone.

She quickly rushed to the BOSS's side, her spear transforming into a sky-filling array of spear shadows, specifically attacking the Demon Dragon Beast's joints and wounds.

With the three women's perfect distraction, Lin Mo completely transformed into a ruthless damage machine.

"Xiao Tu! Again!"

Buzz—!

Another spiral rock spear formed.

"Go!"

Bang!!

The Demon Dragon Beast was pierced again, blood gushing like a pillar.

"Roar!!!"

The Demon Dragon Beast howled in pain.

It wanted to charge at Lin Mo in the air, but Chu Lingxuan firmly blocked its path, while Han Mengyao's frost stuck to its feet.

It could only rage impotently, spewing dragon breath at the empty air.

However, under Lin Mo's agile Flame Wind Wings, it was impossible to hit him.

Third spear, fourth spear...

Lin Mo was like a calm magic-range archer, hovering in the high sky, reaping the BOSS's life one spear after another.

Every spear took away a huge chunk of the health bar.

Every spear left a terrifying blood hole on the Demon Dragon Beast.

In just over one minute.

The Thunder Flame Demon Dragon Beast had been pierced into a sieve.

Its massive body was already riddled with holes, blood staining the entire ground red.

Finally.

The last Dead Thorn Rock Spear pierced its chest once more.

Boom—!!!

The Demon Dragon Beast's massive body crashed down, kicking up dust everywhere.

The red and blue ghostly flames in its eyes flickered twice and extinguished completely.

【Congratulations! Successfully killed Temple Guardian · Thunder Flame Demon Dragon Beast!】

【Clear Evaluation: S+ Rank!】

At the same time,

a beam of golden light shot straight into the sky.

【Congratulations! Your level has increased to Lv. 25!】

【Current Level: Lv. 25 (45%)】

The pleasant sensation brought by leveling up made Lin Mo unable to help but take a long sigh of relief.

Lin Mo glanced at the Demon Dragon Beast's corpse, then slowly descended from the air, retracting his Flame Wind Wings.

The moment he landed, the three girls surrounded him.

"Big Shot Lin Mo, you are too perverted!"

Han Mengqing rushed up first, circling around Lin Mo, "The way you comprehended this skill is simply filling whatever is lacking..."

"Earlier we were short on earth-element AoE mob-clearing, and you just happened to bring out 【Earth-Shaking Mountain-Cracking】."

"Now this BOSS has thick skin and we can't dent it, and you whip out a 【Dead Chicken Spear】?"

Han Mengyao, standing off to the side, had a vein throbbing at her temple. She knocked her sister on the head. "Shut it, you illiterate. It's 【Dead Thorn Rock Spear】!"

"If I hear you giving a divine technique like that some trashy name again, I'll toss you into the lava to clear your head."

Han Mengqing covered her head and let out a wronged mumble.

At that moment, Chu Lingxuan piped up softly:

"Um… everyone, shouldn't we go see what the BOSS dropped?"

Hearing this, Han Mengqing's eyes shone brighter than a searchlight:

"Right, right, right! Loot the corpse! I love looting corpses the most!"

"Go take a look! See if that special drop came out or not!"
