Chapter 482: Swap Output Divine Artifact

Qing-colored streaks of light swiftly swept across Xing Kong, faster than before.

He Er Na's Divine Source grew stronger; her Wind Control Technique's speed had already reached its limit and could not be increased further.

But she cared for the safety of those captured on Wind Spirit Island, unwilling to spare even a bit of her origin to accelerate, she forcibly raised her speed to another level.

"The Red-Horned King is a god-demon hybrid being, with exceptional talent and boundless strength. He self-proclaimed himself king; in the surrounding area, few forces dare provoke him. Originally, while I was there, I could still rely on numerical advantage to contend with him, but I never expected that after such a short time away, this would happen!"

He Er Na felt heavy-hearted; as she rushed, she reported the enemy's situation to Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng held her palm, comforting: "Don't worry, let alone being self-proclaimed king, even if he were truly crowned king it's no problem—we can easily kill him. As long as your friends are safe, there's still time."

"But Master..."

He Er Na's expression was bitter, tears glimmering in her eyes: "Now someone has been killed, and not just one or two, but dozens or even hundreds! They are all my good friends, with hundreds of years of friendship. They regard me as their leader, yet when they encountered the enemy, I was not by their side—I really... feel like a failure!"

At this moment her heart was filled with self-blame.

Had she known this would happen, she definitely wouldn't have gone to Zhu Shen Da Lu.

As long as she was on Wind Spirit Island, no matter how big the matter, she could have rushed to reinforce and not ended up like this.

It's too late to say anything now.

He Er Na's heart ached; anger and guilt turned into killing intent, she wished to tear the whole Holy Flame Island to pieces!

Xiao Feng held her in his arms, saying, "Don't say that; even if you were there, it would take time to get from Wind Spirit Island to Black Stone Continent, and you couldn't save many people. The enemy launched a sneak attack; this isn't your fault."

He knew well that He Er Na's icy, spicy demeanor was just an act for others; in truth her heart burned like a fierce fire, and she cherished those around her especially.

At this moment, hearing the tragic news of many friends' deaths, it was exactly the time she needed comfort.

"Sigh, Master..."

Her eyes moist, she lightly rested her chin on Xiao Feng's shoulder, borrowing temporary support.

Seeing this, Xiao Feng simply pulled her into an embrace, burying his head against his chest, and said, "Go ahead and cry if you need to; you used to be the island master, bearing all pressure alone. But now you have me, you don't have to keep holding on—I'll bear it for you."

He Er Na's body trembled, then she suddenly grew quiet.

After a moment, she fiercely hugged him, pressing her head hard into his chest.

Although she didn't cry out loud, Xiao Feng still felt the divine artifact clothing on his chest

It got soaked.

Sigh...

He sighed in his heart, feeling a bit heartache.

Unbeknownst to him, he had already developed feelings for an NPC...

Clearly just playing around, how did playing turn out like this?

Master.

He Er Na suddenly shouted, lifting her head from his embrace.

What?

Xiao Feng lowered his gaze and saw her eye sockets reddened, her deep blue eyes reflecting his face like a clear, see-through lake.

I...

He Er Na wanted to speak but stopped.

Her lips trembled, as if hesitating, her breathing also a bit disordered.

After a short while, she still didn't say anything.

Xiao Feng reached out to tidy the messy hair at her forehead, smiling lightly: "Once you've cried it out, compose yourself, speed up—we're going to save people."

"Mm!" He Er Na nodded, her eyes regaining their luster.

Just a little while ago, their speed had slowed considerably.

Seeing her condition improve, Xiao Feng thought they would soon speed up to go to Holy Flame Island to slay monsters.

But the next moment, He Er Na suddenly wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him close, her vermilion lips approaching.

"Eh..."

The sudden attack left him stunned, somewhat unprepared.

But in an instant he understood and responded.

…

After a short while, they finally separated.

He Er Na said: "Master, I'm going to speed up now!"

She had fully adjusted, no longer sorrowful, no longer self-blaming.

Only high fighting spirit and killing intent remained!

Whoosh~

A green figure tore through the void, speed restored to its peak, covering tens of kilometers in an instant.

During the journey, Xiao Feng checked his own condition.

Now he, aside from not having mastered 【Palm Heaven and Earth】, was basically at his strongest.

Learning 【Palm Heaven and Earth】 requires 10000 points of Divine Source; he currently has only 3700, somewhat insufficient.

Xiao Feng thought, took off the 【Ascetic's Robe】 armor artifact, and switched back to the 【Guardian's Robe】.

Then he attempted to bind a superior-grade divine artifact weapon.

The divine embryo can carry only a limited number of artifacts, but as long as he removes one superior-grade item, he can equip another superior-grade one.

He took out a weapon from his backpack that he previously couldn't use.

【Doomsday Smoke Magic Staff】

Quality: Superior Divine Artifact

Equipment Requirement: 350-level Mid-level God

Divine Origin Power+8000

Intelligence+2000

War Skill Effect+30％

Critical Hit Rate+30％

Special Effect: 【Doomsday Smoke】 For each additional minute of battle time, damage deepens +2％, up to a maximum of 20 stacks.

Special Effect: 【War Power】 Increases attack power of self and all friendly units within 500 meters by 15％.

Active Effect: 【Initiate Decisive Battle】 Increases attack power of self and all friendly units within 500 meters by 30％, lasts 180 seconds, cooldown 7 days.

This is a staff dropped from a powerful expert of the War God Nation, with strong attack power and it also comes with a halo effect that can boost the team's overall output.

Xiao Feng equipped it, and his attack power increased greatly.

Divine Origin Power directly broke through to 11685, then the "Greed" state deducted 5%, leaving 11100, equivalent to 1.11 million attack power.

Then further increased by the halo effect by 15%, final attack power is 1.2766 million!

However, HP and divine power resistance plummeted greatly, returning to the previous state, HP dropped back to 2.4 billion.

Wielding the Doomsday Smoke Staff, Xiao Feng's aura became much stronger.

He Er Na exclaimed: "Master, are you planning to go all-out regardless of consequences?"

She knew Xiao Feng was special, his attack far exceeded defense; if he forgoes armor and equips a weapon, his destructive power can easily slay a King-sealing Expert.

However, such a situation would still involve some danger.

Xiao Feng replied: "I want to learn the Secret Art skill to maximize output. As for defense... with over a million attack power, the shield effect will also be very strong, so it shouldn't be a problem."

The Five Elements Shield has always been his most commonly used life-saving method.

In a moment of battle, he can also draw the Sword of Civilization, and his attack power will reach over 2.55 million.

At that time, one Earth Element Shield can add 27 billion shield points; with five layers, it's terrifyingly tanky.

Although the shield has zero defense, the damage taken will be high, but holding it for a moment is still sufficient.

Moreover, he doesn't have only five defensive skills.

"Skill learned."

Xiao Feng took out the 【Palm Heaven and Earth】 skill book and used it directly.
