Chapter 1700: I'm Not Just Boasting
Xiao Feng couldn't be bothered with that bird of unsound mind, and continued flying back to study his skill.
Having once experienced self-destruction, he became more cautious, seizing the faint opportunities for fusion offered by his Innate Dao Body, and began an in-depth study of this ultimate skill.
Day by day, time passed.
Before he knew it, more than half a month had passed.
That day, Dun Dun messaged him, saying the Lord of the Sky had returned.
Xiao Feng opened the map and saw that the world boss Lord of the Sky had strolled around the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, then come near the territory of the Yuan Su Shen Yu.
However, this time the route differed, deviating by several million kilometers; it should not directly damage the city of Blue Star 8 War Zone, but instead pass by the neighboring Crystal Divine Realm, destroying the cities of the Rock Life Civilization War Zone.
For safety's sake, Xiao Feng temporarily halted his cultivation and went to the vicinity of the Chaos Divine Nation, preparing to act.
If the Lord of the Sky were to suddenly turn and attack the Chaos Divine Nation, then to protect his friends Baba Wuli and E'ersisi and others on Molten Gold Mountain, he would have to go all out and fight the Lord of the Sky desperately!
Should the Lord of the Sky die, he would surely attract the attention of the two mightier venerables, the Lord of Life and the Lord of Stars, and the days ahead might become unpleasant.
At the same time, his strength would greatly increase, his level would jump by 20, he would obtain powerful equipment, and he would upgrade He Xianzi to a higher quality.
Killing the Lord of the Sky has both pros and cons; if not necessary, Xiao Feng for now does not want to fight this battle, and a frontal kill would be only a last resort.
He took He Xianzi and left Magic Source Mountain.
Feng Feng Shi and the others also emerged from seclusion, preparing to inflict some damage and raise their ranking on the contribution list.
A group teleported to the vicinity of the allied city Shooting Heaven City, and lay in wait ahead of time at the place where the Lord of the Sky would pass.
He Xianzi and Qing Nü, two beautiful women who had cultivated into divine birds, exchanged flirtatious glances all along the way, making Xiao Feng and Feng Feng Shi a bit embarrassed, and they couldn't help secretly admonishing their own mounts.
Xiao Feng held a scarlet demonic sword in his hand, while Feng Feng Shi tapped the body of a guqin with the back of his finger, the warning unmistakable.
He Xianzi let her face droop, showing the dejected look of a mandarin duck beaten by a stick.
Qing Nü, however, was fine; in her view, her relationship with He Xianzi had developed from ordinary acquaintances into close female friends.
Originally her acquaintances were only Feng Feng Shi and a few maids who served him; now she had gained a fellow-species friend, naturally making her happy, and she had much to say to He Xianzi.
Unlike He Xianzi, that old lecher, who treats her as a friend but fantasizes about riding her! The key is she lacks that function, so she can only grind tofu against the mirror.
……
Near a lake 300 kilometers outside the city, a group waited underwater, silently watching the map, anticipating the Lord of the Sky's approach.
They were all divine beings; even submerged in water they wouldn't drown, with divine power controlling them, so their clothes wouldn't drift, and they needn't worry about exposing their thighs.
Dun Dun hugged her large shield and said glumly, "Someone hasn't come to the Dark Garden Castle for over half a month."
"Ah, has it really been that long? Lately I've been obsessed with training on Magic Source Mountain, I haven't had time to play with the little girl." Xiao Feng felt as if from another world, a bit sentimental.
Jiang Ning spoke softly: "It's fine, cultivation is most important. This girl is just bored and nagging at you; we're not beasts, so we're not…… cough." As she spoke, her pretty face flushed.
Xiao Feng laughed and cried at once.
Hearing that, it sounded as if he used to be a beast!
However, his recent training pressure has been too great; if it continues, he'll eventually go mad, so occasional relaxation is still quite necessary.
After all, balancing work and rest is the healthiest!
"The Lord of the Sky is arriving soon!"
Shen Di looked at the map and suddenly said.
"Hmm, prepare for battle."
Xiao Feng also kept his eyes on the big map, fearing that the great bird might suddenly veer off and fly toward his divine nation.
Fortunately, the Lord of the Sky's path is usually mostly straight, only making a big turn after flying a certain distance.
It soon arrived near Shooting Heaven City.
Shen Chuo was also on the team; today, idle and with nothing to do, he came to deal damage, seeing the situation he ordered: "Attack!"
The support-class players quickly buffed everyone up.
A group flashed forward and launched a fierce barrage of blows at the immense venerable's true form.
……Unfortunately, their blows felt to the Lord of the Sky like a mere tickle.
"Insignificant ants, daring to defy the noble god?"
The Lord of the Sky snorted coldly, flicked his wings, and the familiar storm rose again, blanketing a range of several thousand kilometers.
Shooting Heaven City instantly turned to ruins, over two billion players were instantly slain, including Xiao Feng.
"Ah, this monster's HP is truly massive; after three or four months of fighting, it's only lost 50 yi of HP—when will we ever kill it?" Li Li lay on the ground complaining; he was one of the few players whose corpse remained intact.
The Lord of the Sky has 19,200 yi of HP, and its current loss rate is only about 0.26%.
At this rate, defeating it would take an estimated 128 years!
Although players' levels rise and their output grows faster,
a conservative estimate still requires eight to ten years of fighting.
Xiao Feng saw everyone looking discouraged and said, "How about I give it another go?"
"Oh? You want to go all out?"
Shen Chuo exclaimed in surprise upon hearing that.
The others also expressed great interest.
Xiao Feng had never before unleashed his full power, and they could tell.
Given his strength, an all-out burst of output, while unable to instantly kill the Lord of the Sky, would certainly deal damage several times greater than the currently displayed contribution!
Xiao Feng said: "I've been researching a skill lately; it's not yet perfected, but it's quite destructive. I'll rise up and give it a try, see how it works."
Saying that, he instantly revived on the spot and flashed toward the Lord of the Sky, who was still up in the heavens cursing and despising adventurers.
Everyone stared intently at him; some had no corpses, but that didn't hinder their ability to watch the battle.
Xiao Feng knew the Lord of the Sky was very fast in speed and reaction, leaving him little time to act.
Thus, after reviving, he immediately entered the state he had been in while researching the skill!
A rune on his Innate Dao Body glowed, and his whole body radiated golden light.
He clenched his hand in the air, condensing a Great Dao imprint, and pressed it against his chest.
This time he didn't bother with any fusion.
He self-destructed outright.
"Huh? Is that you?"
The fluctuations of his Innate Dao Body and the Great Dao imprint were intense, making the entire space tremble slightly.
The Sky Lord saw that the attacker was Xiao Feng, snorted coldly, and immediately attacked.
A low hum.
A sharp sonic boom surged toward him, capable of pulverizing Xiao Feng into nothing in an instant.
But beforehand, Xiao Feng's Great Dao imprint had already been etched onto his own body.
The Divine Might Dao pattern clashed violently with the Innate Dao Body, releasing a burst of light as brilliant as a supernova.
The white light consumed everything, its radius extending 500 kilometers, and the shockwave reached even farther.
Though not as wide as the Sky Lord's skill range, the light turned everything it touched into nothing, annihilating all but the Sky Lord.
The explosion's roar was muted, only appearing as an echo long after.
Xiao Feng left no trace, dead completely.
Likewise, the deceased players stared wide-eyed, observing the sky from the viewpoint of the dead.
In the sky, two feathers several kilometers long drifted down slowly—signs that the Sky Lord's wing had been snapped.
-38,778.4 zetta (critical hit)
Teammates saw a long string of damage numbers.
Even those not in the party saw Xiao Feng, ranked first on the contribution list, whose total damage had more than doubled.
"As expected of Old Xiao, he's incredibly strong..." Zhang Fan exclaimed.
Li Li murmured, "With this damage, he claims his skill isn't even fully researched yet."
Everyone fell silent.
The bodiless Xiao Feng said in the team: "I'm not boasting; right now it doesn't even qualify as a half-finished product."
A mere 3.8 yang of damage—enough to instantly slay Qiong Qi over ten thousand times, and instantly slay the Xuan Die senior two thousand times.
A pure Great Dao imprint explosion requires only six or seven clones to achieve this level.
This move still can't match the power of three thousand clones detonating Dao patterns together, so it's indeed not that strong.
Yet even a mere self-destruct can inflict this much damage; if the secret technique were perfected... who knows what would happen?
They became even more eager!
