Chapter 894: Another Upper God Artifact

Upper God-level wind magic is quite overbearing; when it burst out of the barrier's gap, it was like a cannonball, pushing Xiao Feng dozens of meters away.

However, the damage wasn't high; without heavenly dao protection, it only dealt over 1 billion.

Xiao Feng chuckled: "Kang Xu, take it slow breaking this; this barrier is a nice bug, I'll just lock her down!"

This barrier seems even Mi Li Luo can't handle; it can't be destroyed—perfect for him to carry out a one-sided massacre!

"Soul-Chasing Spear!"

"Soul-Chasing Spear!"

Xiao Feng cast two Secret Arts in three seconds, unleashing three Soul-Chasing Spears in a row, each a critical hit, each dealing eight or nine hundred billion damage.

Poor Mi Li Luo didn't even get a chance to counterattack; after casting a wind magic, he killed her outright.

After taking out Mi Li Luo, Xiao Feng casually shoved two Origin Burst Techniques through the barrier's gap, wiping out all the small fry.

The whole process was effortless, completely without pressure!

【Congratulations on completing the initial assault on the Flight Bird Tribulation's number five boss—keep it up!】

The dungeon progress increased by another one-tenth.

However, Mi Li Luo wasn't the number two boss—she was number five!

That means, following the normal approach, there are still three bosses to defeat before her!

"Keep breaking!"

After the monsters were cleared, the treasure chests all dropped at the castle gate, out of reach.

Kang Xu continued to operate the God-level Devil-breaking Ballista Cart to keep destroying the barrier.

Ballista bolts were fired one after another along the edge of the gap, widening it.

That barrier actually has self-repair capability, but the speed is not fast.

After firing ten ballista bolts, a gap about one meter wide appeared on the barrier, allowing a single person to pass through easily.

Xiao Feng led the way in, and Li Li and the others followed one after another.

The air inside the Withering Law Spiritual Barrier felt extremely oppressive, as if a mountain weighed on one's head, making it very uncomfortable.

There were ten large treasure chests on the ground, which Xiao Feng opened all at once.

The rewards from the number five boss Mi Li Luo are basically the same as those from the number one boss Lei Qie Er: a large amount of artifacts, plus one Upper God Artifact.

However, no map fragments appeared.

Xiao Feng guessed that the three bosses before her are the ones that drop map fragments.

Following the normal approach, one should first defeat the other three bosses, collect the map, then find a way to break the barrier and storm the castle.

However, the existence of the God-level Devil-breaking Ballista Cart disrupts this rule!

"Wow! Another Upper God Artifact!"

"Quick, pick it up and check its stats!"

"Tsk tsk, another battle where you earn dividends without doing anything—awesome!"

After opening the chest, an Upper God Artifact–level robe appeared.

【Fallen Feather Robe】

Quality: Upper God Artifact

Equipment Requirement: Level 400 Upper God

Max HP +28,000,000

Godly Essence +80,000

Divine Power Resistance +120,000

Magic Damage Reduction +45% (max not exceeding 99.99%)

Physical Damage Reduction +35% (max not exceeding 99.99%)

HP Regen +80,000 per second

Cultivation Aid +25

Special Effect: 【Impurity】When wearing this equipment, skill mana cost doubles, power increases by 5%

Special Effect: 【Heavenly Feather Spiritual Barrier】When taking a lethal hit, immune to that damage and instantly restore 30% of own HP, max once per 60 minutes

Seeing the base stats, Xiao Feng still felt the robe was not bad—though its defense is a bit low, it adds attack, a fine attribute many armors lack.

But the effect of the first special effect left him stunned—he hadn't expected such a negative special effect to exist……

The doubled mana cost is deadly for someone like him who often uses Secret Art ultimates; his mana pool isn't large to begin with, and using Soul-Chasing Spears, Palm of Heaven and Earth, or hand-rolled nukes a few more times would drain it outright.

Although the +80,000 Godly Essence tempted him, after careful consideration he decided to give it up.

"Let's delay the loot auction a bit—there are still 3000 people exploring the wild zone who aren't free yet; we'll split the loot later after we finish." Xiao Feng told the crowd.

"Hmm, let's go into the castle to have a look; the big boss should be inside." Jian Zan Cangsheng said.

Everyone had no objections; a thousand people trickled in through the barrier's gap, preparing to fight the demonized Feather Emperor.

The barrier's gap slowly healed over time; after they all entered, only a gap a little over one Chinese foot remained.

Xiao Feng led the team through the gate, which resembled a guillotine blade.

I thought there would be more soldiers inside the castle, but it turned out to be completely empty.

Beyond the first gate lay a wide forecourt planted with some yew trees, utterly deserted and very quiet.

At that moment, a female knight wielding a silver shield and long spear guarded the castle gate.

"That's the number six boss!"

Everyone instantly felt the pressure of the boss battle.

This entire forecourt, a 300 by 800 meter area, is presumably the number six boss's combat zone—very spacious.

The entire front courtyard area of 300*800 meters should all be the battle zone of the 6th boss, very spacious.

Even if the entire 5000-person legion came in, it wouldn't feel too crowded.

Xiao Feng glanced at the boss's information.

【Fallen Fourth-Generation Feather King—An Qila】

Level: 635 (Lower-rank Main God)

HP: 3.4 trillion/3.4 trillion

Note: No one can cross the line she guards!

This boss, like Mililuo outside the gate, has empty eyes and lacks spirituality; his name also lacks the 'Enlightenment Law' label, clearly after having his power drained, not only is his strength weakened, his soul also suffered heavy damage, he lost his self and became a walking corpse.

"Everyone spread out a bit, just give me some support around." Xiao Feng said to everyone, then he himself flew straight toward the boss.

Li Li and the others immediately gave him a full buff, maxing out his attack and defense stats.

He also put a Heavenly Dao Protection buff on himself, so he wouldn't get hurt too badly.

"Palm Heaven and Earth!"

Xiao Feng's thought moved, and he used a first-tier Secret Art to engage the monster.

The boss usually acts second in combat, giving the player a first-move opportunity.

If he opened with the Soul-Chasing Spear, the damage would be higher, effectively taking off a large chunk of the boss's HP. However, there will definitely be many more boss battles later in this castle, and he doesn't want to expend too much mental energy.

So he tries to avoid using the Soul-Chasing Spear whenever possible.

Palm Heaven and Earth, as a first-tier Secret Art, has about 50% of the damage of the Soul-Chasing Spear, yet it's already very powerful—ten times stronger than Source Explosion Technique and nearly twenty times stronger than single-target Source Needle.

Hum~

A huge purple-gray hand appeared outside the castle's main gate, reaching down to grab the female knight An Qila.

Rumble~

This grab contained immense energy, pressing and deforming the castle's doors and walls, destroying a large section of the walls.

Boss #6 An Qila raised her shield and created a light shield to block the attack.

The next second, the huge hand pressed down with full force, letting out a tremendous roar!

The ground trembled; the impact was huge, shaking the entire castle!

An Qila's head showed a -112.8 billion critical hit damage, and her damage reduction was far greater than that of the previous two bosses.

She roared: "Those who disturb the Primordial Ancestor's closed-door cultivation shall die without mercy!"

She then raised her left shield and right spear, immediately launching a counterattack!

Swish!

A spear thrust sent a blade of light shooting over a hundred meters, brilliant as the stars.

Xiao Feng was far enough to dodge the direct hit, only grazing the edge and taking over 30 million damage, which didn't hurt much.

He felt somewhat surprised, thinking to himself: "The Feather Emperor is actually in closed-door cultivation; could it be that he's going to level up again?"

According to the plot setting, the old geezer should have to "consume" a first-generation Flying Bird Main God to break through once. The closed-door cultivation during the dungeon run seems strange, likely containing some mechanism!
