Chapter 283: Clever Use of the Falling Demon Body

Very extreme.

At the moment Peak Sever Slay's sever-skill swung, Su Sheng pulled the reins and stepped back.

Although operating in Mounted State is indeed not very flexible, Su Sheng has had his mount for quite a while, and after this period of breaking in, he has completely mastered mounted combat control.

Although there are indeed some limitations, it's no longer clumsy operation.

Peak Sever Slay was somewhat surprised; Mo Wen Qianchen actually dodged it.

But the instant his blade fell, the recovery was directly softened by him chaining into the next skill.

Crippling Strike!

Peak Sever Slay knew Su Sheng was fast! So he had to first reduce Su Sheng's speed!

The transition between the two skills had no pause; just pulling that off is already impressive.

But Su Sheng's attack speed is even faster!

Moreover, Su Sheng is wielding a long weapon!

In the moment of retreat, Su Sheng simultaneously thrust his spear forward.

Cold Ray instantly expanded!

So fast!

But Peak Sever Slay knew Su Sheng's level was high, so he never let his guard down from the start; the instant he saw Su Sheng's spear, he directly interrupted his skill and raised his blade!

Clang!

Sparks flew!

Su Sheng didn't use a skill, just the most basic thrust.

Parry!

Su Sheng's eyes lit up slightly; not bad, this guy.

A regular parry is not a skill, it's a technique.

If controlled well, it can completely negate regular melee damage—for example, Peak Sever Slay just now parried Su Sheng's spear and took no damage.

Even if it cannot fully negate, after a parry the damage from the blocked attack is greatly reduced.

But Su Sheng curled the corner of his mouth, revealing a hint of a smile—this makes things a bit interesting.

Swish~

Spear tip spun!

Binding Blade!

Although it's not a longsword, the blade of the spear can still use this skill.

Retreating step!

Z-shaped shake!

Peak Sever Slay took a step back, preparing to reposition.

Just Su Sheng slightly shook his head!

If it were a one-handed sword, that would still work, but Su Sheng is wielding a long weapon!

A misstep, and Peak Sever Slay realized he was wrong!

Can't dodge!

The long weapon's attack range is too far!

Parry!

But it was too rushed!

Pfft~

-3717!

Failed to parry!

From this damage you can tell Peak Sever Slay's gear isn't bad—his 1.6x skill only dealt over three thousand damage, although Su Sheng is currently dual-wielding, his attack is only 2587!

Su Sheng smiled faintly; from now on it's my rhythm!

The spear wasn't retracted, he thrust forward again! Thrust!

Lion's Claw!

This skill, when used with a long weapon in Mounted State, changes its form: the slash becomes a thrust, and it also carries a knock-up effect!

And! As the spear was about to hit Peak Sever Slay, Su Sheng's eyes flashed with a cold light, black aura rose, and his red cape instantly turned black.

But at the moment the spear struck, the black aura instantly dissipated, and the black cape instantly turned back to red.

Su Sheng deducted one percent of his HP, but that's just one percent of his HP! Because he shut it off in time!

Ding!

Parry! Peak Sever Slay, now prepared, tried to parry again—and succeeded!

But immediately afterward, Peak Sever Slay felt a huge force; his parrying weapon was directly knocked aside!

Peak Sever Slay's expression changed drastically! Break Parry!

The gap is too great! The parry was broken!

Pfft!

The spear pierced straight through, launching Peak Sever Slay into the air in one go.

-10097!

The Falling Demon Body's 30% atk/def boost, combined with Lion's Claw's 3.3x multiplier, directly burst-killed for ten thousand damage.

However, the lifesteal from the Tooth Pendant didn't trigger—although Su Sheng only turned it on briefly then off, this hit still counted as the Falling Demon Body taking effect, so lifesteal is ineffective!

This is the gameplay Su Sheng came up with for the Falling Demon Body.

Anyway, it can be turned on and off at will; as long as it's controlled well, Su Sheng can completely consume just one percent of his HP to gain a thirty percent boost to his attack! At certain crucial moments! There's no need to keep it on and waste HP.

But it needs to be controlled well, after all not everyone can divert their attention to control this during battle.

If I activate Berserk State, then activate War Rhythm, combined with this Falling Demon Body, currently I estimate that aside from Survival Skills, no player could withstand a hit from my high-multiplier skill!

Similar to Lion's Claw and Deadly Lion Fang.

The staggered silhouette of Peak Guild's Cutting Kill hadn't yet fallen, it turned into white light; ultimately, only a piece of armor bracer fell to the ground.

Su Sheng also couldn't be bothered to pick it up; that guy still had two brushes, he simply flicked his spear, sending the bracer flying into front of the Peak Guild players.

"Take it back to him, you may go." Su Sheng said calmly.

Those Peak Guild players, seeing Peak Guild's Cutting Kill almost instantly cleaned up by Mo Wen Qianchen, were still a bit nervous; they didn't expect the other side to truly honor the agreement and let them go.

One of the Peak Guild players plucked up courage to pick up the bracer of Peak Guild's Cutting Kill, then crushed a Return City Talisman.

Seeing that, the other members of Peak Guild also crushed Return City Talismans one after another.

Su Sheng slightly shook his head, nothing much to say; both sides were relatively restrained—if the other side had directly killed the players of the Yan Huang squad, it definitely wouldn't have been so easily resolved; anyway, the two sides aren't mortal enemies, so there's no need to stiffen relations.

Although this is a game, besides the combat itself, worldly affairs also need to be handled flexibly.

After all the Peak Guild players had returned, the five members of the Yan Huang squad then stepped forward.

"Chairman!"

"Chairman!"

Su Sheng slightly nodded: "Thanks for your help, cover me while I finish the boss and split the gear!"

At the same time, Su Sheng sent them a party invitation; experience would be split evenly, and for his own guild members, Su Sheng wouldn't go so far as to exploit them.

"Okay, Chairman!"

"But really, we don't need to help?"

Su Sheng smiled: "My skill trial mission cannot accept any help—not even a Priest buff or healing."

Su Sheng glanced at the Priest MM in the squad who was about to give him a buff.

Upon hearing Su Sheng's words, that Priestess finally stopped her action.

"Just stand by and watch; if someone comes, give me a shout—I'll pull the monsters myself!" Su Sheng said with a smile.

Afterwards, he rode forward to look at the fully healed, full-HP wild ox!

Taunt!
