Chapter 461: Block Blade

At this moment, Su Sheng suddenly thought of something!

Perhaps…

No need to use any Survival Skill!

After all, this is only the boss's Little Frenzy phase; if a Survival Skill is used now, there will be no margin for error when the boss enters the true frenzy phase at ten percent health!

"Wenwan! Retreat!"

Su Sheng let out a loud shout! Then the Shield was swiftly pulled back!

Holding the spear with both hands, the long spear spun a graceful flower of spears in Su Sheng's hand!

Su Sheng recalled the divine nature of his weapon! Break Demon!

This fireball, though a Dragon Breath sphere, is ultimately a magical technique, right!

Back when facing the fireball of the Yamata no Orochi on Little Days, Su Sheng could still Break Demon!

Su Sheng stared at the descending Dragon Breath Fireball!

Getting close!

Fire!

Puff~

The long spear hit the fireball, but the Break Demon effect did not trigger!

Su Sheng's expression remained unchanged; the long spear in his hand twirled again, swinging once more.

Su Sheng withdrew the shield to dual-wield the long spear, allowing more agile control in the dual-wield state!

Puff puff~

The long spear in Su Sheng's hand blossomed into clusters of spear flowers; this is not a skill but an inherent technique, looking highly ornamental!

"What a splendid spear technique!"

Huan Yu Houyi couldn't help but praise, even though Huan Yu Houyi specializes in bow and arrow, he still admired Su Sheng's spear technique.

But…

Mo Wen, Qian Chen, what are you doing? What's the point of attacking those Dragon Breath Fireballs?

Li Xiao and the other two from Huan Yu were all puzzled.

Although they knew the long spear Su Sheng wielded was a Divine Artifact, only a few core leaders of Yanhuang were aware of its attributes.

Li Wenwan, naturally one of the informed, suddenly brightened her eyes, watching Su Sheng with a hint of anticipation.

Swish swish~

But unfortunately…

Three consecutive spears, none triggered the Break Demon effect.

At this point… the Dragon Breath Fireballs have already bombarded down.

Su Sheng had no choice but to activate the Earth Element Shield, to block for a moment.

Boom!

-10733!

Because he was dual-wielding the long spear, Su Sheng gave up the shield, making this attack deal even higher damage.

Fortunately, the Earth Element Shield absorbed part of the damage; otherwise Su Sheng could have been instantly killed.

Even so, Su Sheng's HP had already dropped to the danger line.

If the boss's third Dragon Breath Fireball still locked onto Su Sheng and Break Demon still didn't trigger, Su Sheng would have to resort to Pseudo Nirvana Survival.

Su Sheng glanced at the Magic Rune Ring's rune cooldown; his teeth ached… it still needed over twenty seconds, far too late.

That's one of the Magic Rune Ring's drawbacks: although it grants an invincible Block once per minute, the timing can't be controlled; once used, you must wait a full minute.

Argh!

Under everyone's gaze, Divine Dragon Shadowless roared again, and the third Dragon Breath Fireball finally spewed out.

But… its gaze fixed on Li Wenwan; although she had begun to retreat, she rushed in too far and hadn't cleared the spot yet.

"Oh no!"

Seeing this, Su Sheng raised an eyebrow.

Lion Hunt!

Su Sheng instantly activated Lion Hunt, becoming like an arrow off the string, charging toward Li Wenwan.

The long spear in his hand twitched~

Tracing the Dragon Breath Fireball's path, clusters of spear flowers blossomed…

Li Wenwan also retreated, watching Su Sheng's attack with anticipation!

Break Demon! Trigger it for me!!

Su Sheng roared inside his heart.

But it seemed the system was opposing Su Sheng; four consecutive spears still failed to trigger Break Demon.

Luck… is too bad!

The fifth spear should have a chance to trigger, twenty percent probability!

But… after one spear, the Dragon Breath Fireball remained unharmed.

Su Sheng's teeth ached; the twenty percent chance for Break Demon doesn't mean five spears guarantee activation—each spear calculates probability separately, so five consecutive failures are possible.

It's already too late…

Su Sheng suddenly gritted his teeth, reached out and yanked… a dark shadow shot out.

The dark shadow landed right in front of Li Wenwan.

Boom!

Dragon Breath Fireball, right on target!

-49317

Terrifying damage!

Of course it wasn't Li Wenwan's…

It was Suanni's, and the one that blocked the blade for Li Wenwan was, surprisingly, Xiao Jia Huo.

What Su Sheng tossed out was precisely the Suanni he had ripped off his head…

Li Wenwan was unharmed, and the Suanni, flapping its small wings in the air, looked at Su Sheng with a mournful expression as it fell into Li Wenwan's arms.

Although the Suanni's defense wasn't high, its HP was massive… In the Dungeon, when we were fighting those squad-made minions earlier, it even leveled up, reaching level 48.

A level‑48 Suanni had 1,960 attack and 2,450 defense—truly quite average.

Even the Suanni, a divine beast with divine attributes, is like this; let alone the other ordinary pets.

But… the Suanni's HP reached a terrifying 57,000, higher than Su Sheng's fully buffed state.

So… Su Sheng believes the Suanni can hold the line for a while.

The facts proved Su Sheng's guess was correct.

Argh!

The BOSS's Little Frenzy phase has already ended.

Swoosh~

Huan Yu Nuwa's Healing Technique landed on Su Sheng instantly; as the main tank, Su Sheng cannot fall.

When the BOSS's third Dragon Breath Fireball was launched, targeting Li Wenwan, Huan Yu Nuwa had already rushed in; with Li Wenwan retreating and Su Sheng charging to support, the distance to Huan Yu Nuwa narrowed, so the Healing Technique landed very promptly.

Otherwise, if the Little Frenzy phase had passed and the Healing Technique hadn't kept up, causing Su Sheng to take a hit and trigger a pseudo Nirvana, it wouldn't be fun.

The Healing Technique kept pace, so Su Sheng immediately turned and started pulling the mob; Li Wenwan was also outputting nearby, and this time the BOSS entered the magic phase.

Boom~

Luck was on our side; the first fireball instantly triggered Phoenix Flame.

Soon Li Xiao and Huan Yu Houyi also caught up… Though their output in the magic phase was weak, they still dealt whatever they could.

Facing a level‑60 pseudo commander boss, maybe it's just that little bit of damage missing—who can say for sure.

"Sorry about that, Chairman Mo Wen, I think I missed that," Li Xiao apologized to Su Sheng, a bit embarrassed.

"No problem, it's not a big issue; let's be careful in the next phase, after all you don't know what the BOSS's next stage will be," Su Sheng shook his head, unbothered.

"Alright!" Li Xiao nodded.

During the magic phase, all the damage relied on Li Wenwan.

Su Sheng glanced at Huan Yu Houyi and had to admit that, as the archer Group Leader of Huan Yu, Houyi's skill was truly top‑notch, with all maneuvers highly practiced, and his accuracy in Free Mode also very high.

It seems that in reality Huan Yu Houyi is a retired shooting athlete.

However, given this Dungeon's mechanics, Su Sheng feels that if Huan Yu Houyi were replaced by Huan Jie, it would be a lot easier.

After Huan Jie switched to the Elf Ranger, she truly became an all‑round C‑position.

Magic and physical output can be switched at will, perfectly matching this Dungeon's mechanics.

But at present, only a few people know Huan Jie's Hidden Class…
