Chapter 455: Chapter 56 Phoenix Sky Destruction

Just as Human-faced Zhe was pulling a sword out of his mouth, Xiao Jie was also busy.

Various buffs were applied one after another, maxing out everything that could be boosted.

Vajra Talisman, Azure Dragon Binding Energy, Qi Protection... Now wasn’t the time to be conservative; if Spiritual Energy Skills were available, they had to be used.

Finally, he threw a Qi Exhaustion Skill towards Human-faced Zhe.

The thing about the Qi Exhaustion Skill was that it was a locked-on skill. It took effect immediately and left no room for dodging.

But Human-faced Zhe seemed completely unaware, sweeping his sword toward Xiao Jie.

With a large body and a long sword, a sweep covered a range of nearly four or five meters, and its speed was astonishingly fast, far surpassing that of the likes of Niu Dali.

What Xiao Jie feared most was this type of attack with high speed and wide range. A large attack range meant that ordinary rolls and movement techniques wouldn’t suffice, and high speed meant that body movement skills had to be constantly used. Falling out of rhythm would mean getting hit.

It was just like when facing Dong Lingzi; dodging with a combination of rolls and crawls was extremely awkward. Fortunately, times had changed. Xiao Jie’s movement technique and attributes were up to par, and he immediately flashed behind Human-faced Zhe using Phantom Traceless.

This Human-faced Zhe didn’t have Dong Lingzi’s keen senses. His sword chopped down on the phantom, and the moment the phantom shattered, Xiao Jie’s blade edge struck Human-faced Zhe from behind.

-36!

The damage was indeed a bit low.

Before Xiao Jie could make a second chop, Human-faced Zhe instantly turned around, prompting Xiao Jie to urgently halt the windup of his second strike.

"A bit interesting," Human-faced Zhe let out a cold laugh, and his great sword swept across again.

Residual Shadow Steps!

Xiao Jie rapidly retreated, but a third sword chop immediately followed.

So fast!

Shock surged in Xiao Jie’s heart. This foe was even fiercer than Dong Lingzi, both body movement skills still had a second of cooldown left, what to do? Hawk Roll? Rolling? No, none were fast enough—

In an instant, Xiao Jie’s thoughts raced—Blade Reflection!

A lifting slice with his blade met the oncoming sword.

Clang!

Success! Xiao Jie’s pores burst open; such a critical maneuver wasn’t something he could pull off every time, especially when the enemy’s Attack Speed was so fast. This split-second reaction wasn’t guaranteed.

Luckily, this time it worked.

The moment he deflected the opponent’s weapon, Xiao Jie immediately followed through with a counterattack.

He didn’t dare to use Combat Skills with their excessive startup animations. The BOSS moved too quickly; he could only go in for a single slice at a time, not getting greedy for more.

Thud! The blade accurately chopped into Human-faced Zhe’s chest. As blood splattered, a mass of blood mist exploded from the chest wound, swarming toward Xiao Jie like a cloud of mosquitoes.

System notification: You’ve been afflicted by Blood Gu—you’re bleeding.

Blood Volume steadily dropped; this thing was clearly a Spell Attack, so being bulletproof was useless.

Damn it, what kind of sorcery is this?

Xiao Jie retreated in shock and anger, but Human-faced Zhe had already regained momentum, the blood-red great sword furiously slashing down.

Xiao Jie kept dodging while internally lamenting, what kind of freak monster is this, with such a ferocious attack and even a damage reflection ability, how was he supposed to fight?

Fortunately, the damage from the Blood Gu wasn’t too high, and after losing a bit over a hundred Blood Volume, it disappeared.

However, Human-faced Zhe’s assault didn’t seem to slow down at all, chopping wildly with no apparent pattern, yet with lethal precision.

A half-beat slow in linking one body movement skill, Xiao Jie received a fierce sword blow.

Just one strike was enough to shatter his Qi Protection and even cause a brief stun.

Another sword came chopping down.

Guiyuan Armor Technique! In a critical moment, Zishan’s Spell wrapped around Xiao Jie.

Crack! The shield shattered again, but it gave Xiao Jie a chance to catch his breath and escape using Phantom Traceless.

"Damn it, are you done yet? I can’t hold on much longer!" he shouted into the voice chat while consuming a Big Red.

Watching Human-faced Zhe roar and launch another assault, Xiao Jie inwardly despaired.

Relief came at last with the arrival of reinforcements.

"I’m here to assist you!"

Barbaric Charge!

A colossal bear suddenly charged from behind, knocking Human-faced Zhe flying. It was An Ran, having transformed into a giant bear to come to the rescue.

The bear, as tall as Human-faced Zhe yet several times bulkier, matched the opponent in Strength.

Bear Palm Strike! Another, and a third!

An Ran’s bear paws struck left and right, pressuring Human-faced Zhe into continuous retreat until a leaping slam followed. Soaring into the air, the giant bear plummeted, pinning Human-faced Zhe solidly, embedding half his body into the ground.

"Wow, An Ran, when did you become so fierce?" Xiao Jie was pleasantly surprised for a moment, having somewhat overlooked An Ran’s prowess since she had not taken the forefront in combat.

Only now did he realize that after her transformation, she was truly in a Tank form—and the best part seemed to be that blunt impact damage didn’t trigger the Blood Gu backlash.

The bear spoke in a muffled tone, "Hey, I am a Master of Magic after all. I just didn’t want to steal the spotlight from you guys. Watch this!"

With another leap into the air.

Ox Demon Split Earth Wave—Shake the Earth!

Sorcery—Time Swapping!

A red vortex appeared out of thin air above Human-faced Zhe, and An Ran leapt right into the midst of the vortex, vanishing on the spot.

"Damn!" A roar of the giant bear came from afar, and a bear was seen screaming as it plummeted from hundreds of meters in the air toward the ground.

In the dugout trench, Human-faced Zhe slowly climbed out, his body, distorted from the bear’s impact, quickly recovering, "You see, you simply cannot resist this Strength."

Silently, Xiao Jie launched another Qi Exhaustion Skill and downed another dose of Big Medicine.
