"Everyone, pay attention, I’m going in..."
Upon hearing Xiao Jie’s voice, everyone suddenly seed to have found their backbone. Having faced so many crises and formidable BOSSES in the past, Feng always had a way to fight and win, even when it ca to world BOSSES like Wang Xie—though the process was a bit thrilling.
Precisely because of this, despite the frequent setbacks from the start of the battle to now, and the unimaginable strength of Master Hongchen, no one on the team ever displayed any signs of despair or discouragent.
They didn’t even consider the possibility of failure.
Everyone was waiting for Xiao Jie’s strategy.
Upon hearing Xiao Jie’s call, everybody imdiately responded.
"Roger!"
"Understood!"
"We’ve been waiting for you to take action, Feng."
Hearing the unified response from his teammates, Xiao Jie didn’t hesitate any longer and moved fiercely.
Master Hongchen had just sent Hao Mie flying with a palm strike and was about to pursue him when he suddenly heard an earth-shattering tiger roar behind him.
The roar was deafening, causing him to instinctively turn around, only to see a massive tiger lunging towards him, its bloody mouth coming right at his head.
Master Hongchen couldn’t help but sneer inwardly. This boy is cunning and full of tricks, but his combat experience is ordinary. Who would roar before attacking? For ordinary people, it might boost morale, but for skilled combatants, wouldn’t this tiger roar alert to his attack?
He sensed the shocking power of the tiger’s roar, but Master Hongchen, being who he was—a monster who had lived for tens of thousands of years—found that the fear effect of this Tiger Roar Soul Shattering Shout didn’t affect him at all.
(Oh, so the plan was to use the Tiger Roar to intimidate . Unfortunately, such a ager tiger roar can’t possibly affect .)
In fact, even without the tiger roar, with Master Hongchen’s Perception, he could sense Xiao Jie’s presence before he got close. Now, he just turned around a bit earlier.
This actually gave him more ti to react.
Had he been ambushed, Master Hongchen would most likely have dodged and then found an opportunity to counterattack.
But seeing the massive tiger mid-air now gave him plenty of options—since you are seeking death, I’ll fulfill your wish.
Facing the tiger charging at him, Master Hongchen suddenly channeled power, Charging, and unleashed a palm strike infused with potent Inner Strength.
Combat Skill—Mountain Shattering Palm!
Lying Tiger Stone Form!
The massive tiger transford into a stone statue mid-air, and the palm hit the statue firmly.
Bang!
This Lying Tiger Stone Form, worthy of being an Innate Demon Technique, was extrely durable and indestructible. Not only did Master Hongchen’s palm fail to damage the statue, but the Rebound force made him stagger backwards, exposing a huge opening.
"Now’s the ti!" Xiao Jie shouted.
Everyone was already on high alert, and seeing that Master Hongchen exposed an opening, they unleashed their attacks all at once.
Unfortunately, this stiff mont was limited and not a genuine crowd control, so launching Big Moves was too late. They could only bombard him with Sword Qi, hidden weapons, and ordinary instant-cast spells.
Bang bang! Fwoosh fwoosh! Whoosh whoosh!
Master Hongchen was hit solidly by two Sword Qis, a fireball, a Flying Sword, a Qi Gong Wave, and a Cold Iron Flying Dagger, dropping his Blood Volu by about a thousand.
Just as Hongchen steadied himself, the massive tiger turned back into flesh and pounced again.
Hongchen dared not act recklessly this ti. With a flip, he sorsaulted over the tiger’s head, and as he landed, he heard another tiger roar in front—another massive tiger lunged at him.
Huh? Where did this tiger co from?
Having just landed, he did not have the ti to think, instinctively delivering a palm strike.
Lying Tiger Stone Form! To his surprise, this tiger also turned into a stone statue.
Bang!
"Now’s the ti!"
Bang bang! Fwoosh fwoosh! Whoosh whoosh! Another round of furious attacks followed. This ti, because Hongchen reacted hastily, he didn’t put all his strength into his hit, so the Rebound was not as pronounced.
But with everyone having learned from the first experience, the timing was perfect. Within a second, they delivered even more damage than the previous round.
Again, they depleted over a thousand of Master Hongchen’s Blood Volu.
Suffering two severe damages in a row, Hongchen was montarily both shocked and enraged. This damage wasn’t lethal to him, but the implication behind it frightened him—his pattern had been seen through by the opponents!
This thought sent a shiver through his entire body.
The two tigers flanked him from both sides, and suddenly another tiger roar sounded from behind.
Master Hongchen turned his head, seeing yet another tiger lunging at him.
Again... Master Hongchen was both furious and annoyed, thinking to himself that his opponents were truly underestimating him.
Do they think they can use the sa trick a third ti? But where are all these tigers coming from?
These three tigers—one was Xiao Jie transford into the Mountain Lord, one was his Avatar, and the last one was naturally Big Orange.
In Xiao Jie’s eyes, given Hongchen’s speed and power, frontal assaults were unlikely to cause effective damage. The opponent could easily use his speed advantage to strike and retreat, making any force-control effects nearly impossible.
However, by bluffing and forcing the opponent to use a Big Move, then defending with Lying Tiger Stone Form, they could make him expose an opening by taking advantage of the Rebound force.
The tactic was effective once deployed.
Seeing another tiger about to attack, Master Hongchen delivered a palm strike at Big Orange.
Lying Tiger Stone Form!
But as the palm force was about to land, Master Hongchen suddenly withdrew his hand, pulling back the force with an abrupt, inward motion. The mont the Lying Tiger Stone Form of Big Orange ended, he once again unleashed a fierce palm strike.
The previously withdrawn Inner Strength combined with this palm strike’s Inner Strength, creating a double Charged powerful palm force.
Combat Skill—Mountain Shattering Palm·Heaven Returning Style!
Bang!
This powerful palm force hamred down on Big Orange’s crown.
Big Orange let out a miserable howl, its HP halved in an instant, with the appearance of three DEBUFFs: Dizziness, Bone Fracture, and Intelligence Decline, rendering it incapable of attack, staggering away in a disoriented retreat.
Having scored a hit, Master Hongchen imdiately dodged, conveniently avoiding the third wave of concentrated fire from the group.
Witnessing the series of events, Xiao Jie sighed inwardly. It was unfortunate that the strategy he devised was seen through so quickly.
Originally thought I could rely on battle inertia for a triple strike.
Now counting the previous damage, it only knocked off around three thousand of Hongchen’s blood volu, what a pity.
The effect of this physical control is still too short in duration, not enough ti for everyone to focus fire and use big moves.
But it’s not bad, Hongchen has a total of more than eight thousand blood volu, now losing a third, a few more waves of control and the opponent will be down.
If strategy won’t work, then let’s go for strong attack.
If physical control doesn’t work, then let’s try the magic effect.
Black Death Wind Control Technique!
Xiao Jie roared like a tiger, sending a black vortex towards Master Hongchen, but his avatar did not mimic this, instead, it reverted to human form and cast Earth Binding Skill. Xiao Jie silently praised the avatar for being so intelligent and cooperative, as the sa magic control effects can’t stack, but continuous magic can.
Earth Binding Skill can slow Hongchen down, and if the vortex summoned by Black Death Wind Control hits, it can cause a floating effect.
If it works, another wave of focus fire can be initiated.
After casting Black Death Wind Control Technique, Xiao Jie imdiately used Life-stealing Pounce, ready to follow up the control with damage.
However, Master Hongchen completely ignored the Earth Binding Skill effect, unaffected, and leaped into the air, jumping over the black vortex.
In an instant, he was above Xiao Jie, stamping down the pouncing great tiger.
Xiao Jie fell to the ground, and before he could recover, he heard his avatar’s cry of pain behind him.
This avatar had too low blood volu, getting killed by Master Hongchen in two moves.
Xiao Jie didn’t hesitate, he turned and attacked again.
Tiger Claw Strike!
Hungry Tiger Pounce!
Life-stealing Pounce!
Master Hongchen casually dodged left and right under Xiao Jie’s attacks, showing no sign of strain.
When Xiao Jie’s moves were exhausted, Master Hongchen used Horse Step Punch followed by Cloud Flipping Palm, blasting away the massive form of Mountain Lord.
So strong!
Xiao Jie got up from the ground, secretly shocked, realizing only from personally fighting him could one feel the trendous advantage brought by extre speed and strength.
Unlike Wang Xie, who solely relies on big moves as a magic system Boss, the attacks were simple yet lethal.
By now, Big Orange had recovered and charged again, but was quickly knocked back again, followed by An Ran and I Want to Be Immortal taking turns but could only hold for less than fifteen seconds.
"Control, control now!" Xiao Jie commanded as he contemplated whether to transform or gamble on Dream Bubble.
anwhile, the team unleashed various control magics.
Divine Skills—Suppress Evil Spirit!
Master Hongchen laughed, "I’m neither demon nor evil spirit, using this magic on is truly foolish." He ignored it directly.
Five Elents Magic—Thorn Chaos Dance!
"These re vines, how can they catch up with my steps." He dodged with a flash.
Sorcery—Mud Binding! Master Hongchen’s body flashed with spiritual light, and the effect dispersed.
Netherworld Ghost Curse—Soul-binding Technique!
A chain whipped onto Master Hongchen, but he effortlessly shook it off and severed the chain.
"Hahaha, how can you harm with such ans."
Xiao Jie frowned, ordinary control spells seed useless against Hongchen, not even Ghost Curse Divine Power could affect him due to his protective spirit qi dispelling it. However, prior strong control spells from Xia Yi had worked, proving powerful control spells are effective.
Currently, they still possessed truly powerful control skills, like Light Fixing Pearl, Yin Yang Soul Suppressing Mirror, and Dream Bubble, able to control three tis at least.
However, Light Fixing Pearl is an area control, affecting both allies and enemies, so it seems they can only rely on themselves.
Stunning him once for a wave of damage, it should be enough after two rounds.
"Everyone, prepare, I’ll stun him for one wave, prepare for a round of output, this ti use big moves!"
Yin Yang Soul Suppressing Mirror—Shocking Yang Divine Light!
A beam of golden light hit Master Hongchen, imdiately immobilizing him on the spot.
This thing could even immobilize the World Boss, and though Master Hongchen had protective spirit qi, he couldn’t immune to it.
Now!
Secret technique—Pride Nine Layers Divine Sword!
Secret technique—Blood Sea Flow!
Secret technique—Mixed Elent Qi Breaking Mountains and Rivers!
Sword Control Technique...
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! The explosions were continuous and reverberating.
This ti, massive damage was finally dealt, and Hongchen’s blood volu plumted at a visible speed.
This ti was different from before, all were strong secret techniques, even with high defense, impervious to bullets, Hongchen lost over three thousand of blood in an instant.
Well done!
Seeing Hongchen’s blood volu drop to below three thousand, everyone was overjoyed.
Xiao Jie sighed in relief, now all that was needed was Dream Bubble to unleash the final wave of focus fire, and this was in the bag.
Master Hongchen stood up, covered in blood, leaping several tis out of the circle, yet laughing loudly, "Hahaha, you think this is enough to kill ? Let show you the power of Qi Refining Secret Skill."
Qi Refining Secret Skill—Qi Healing Skill!
His body instantly filled with white light, wounds rapidly healing, his initially pale face quickly regained blood color.
His blood volu rose at a visible speed, recovering two thousand in an instant. It seed he was conserving spiritual energy, stopping the spell before fully recovering his blood volu, but restored it to more than half.
Master Hongchen (Ancient Qi Refiner) Life Value: 4795/8752!
Everyone was dumbfounded, "What the hell! The Boss can heal himself? This is hopeless."
