Chapter 206

"It's coming, it's coming! The Beast is here!"

As soon as the onlookers saw the Beast King descend, they ran as far as possible with the thought running through their minds.

Even though they were thousands of meters away from the altar, no one felt safe enough.

"01 is going to challenge the Beast. Can he win this time?"

Everyone present knew that because they had chosen the Nightmare Mode for the event quest, all the monsters on the main road had been raised by 20 levels.

Which means, the intermediate level Beast King was no longer level 60, but level 80!

"01 is still in the 50 – 59 ranking, which means his highest level is only 59. It's honestly impossible to fight a Beast that's so many levels higher than you. Not to mention that this Beast is a close-combat type with strong single combat power."

"But he has a divine weapon. If he dares to fight, it means he's confident he could win."

*Sigh* "No matter what, I'm here to record the whole thing. It doesn't matter the end result."

In the crowd of onlookers, in addition to those who were here to record the battle, there were also some who came to start a live broadcast to gain popularity.

There were even some people with evil intentions.

They stood at a relatively distant place with serious expressions on their faces.

"Damn it! We can't let 01 succeed. Otherwise, he'll get 60 high-grade Night Stones once he defeats it!"

"Even if there is a slight possibility, we must resolutely put an end to it! We shouldn't let him get the chance of obtaining the second divine artifact"

"But what should we do? Our levels are no match against the level 80 Beast King!"

"…"

Meanwhile, on the golden altar.

After the red light pillar dissipated, the Unparalleled Sword Demon was revealed.

When he had decided to hunt it down during the event, Ling Yi had already done a detailed search of its information and was no stranger to its appearance.

It was three meters tall and wore a set of black steel armor that was burning with crimson flames. The intricate looking helmet covered its face, only revealing a pair of burning eyes.

It held a pitch-black iron sword that looked like it would break at any time. There were dense cracks on the sword, but boiling lava flowed through the cracks.

Its black armor seemed to be able to absorb the light around it. Just by floating in the air, it had made the surrounding area appear dim.

Ling Yi immediately activated his [Eye of Truth] to check the other party's detailed panel.

[Name: Unparalleled Sword Demon (lv80)]

[Type: Beast King]

[Attributes: strength 2,400, mana 800, agility 2,400, endurance 1,600, physique 1,600]

[Skills: Phantom Clone (9 Star), Demonic Shadow Body (9 Star) (Passive), Inferno Swordsmanship (8 Star), Illusory Flowing Light (9 Star), Absolute Flame instant Shadow Slash (10 Star), Flying Polar Steps (8 Star), Ultimate Explosion (7 Star)]

[Current Status: 100% Health]

'Its attributes and Skills are similar to what I expected…'

Ling Yi heaved a sigh of relief.

When he saw that the Ice Queen had entered her second form, he immediately used the [Eye of Truth] to check on her.

[Strength: 1870, mana: 1870, agility: 2090, endurance: 1870, vitality: 1870]

'Even though the Beast King's level is too high for me to copy, I'm still able to fight it once I copied Xiao Bing's agility.'

Ling Yi was relieved to see the Ice Queen's high attributes.

Unknowingly, her mana in her second form had reached 1,870! It was far more than what he had copied before!

"Before that, I'll copy Xiao Bing's mana and fight with her first."

In the blink of an eye, Ling Yi had completed the duplication.

When he looked at his five dimensions again, it had become–

[Strength: 338, mana: 2,220, agility: 430, endurance: 853, physique: 2,123]

When he first came here, he had already used the [Endurance Dice] to temporarily increase his endurance by 600. (He rolled a 3)

In addition, in order to improve his strength as much as possible, he also spent nearly 300,000 exp to level up to level 59!

Including the undistributed attribute points that he had obtained when he reached level 50, he added a total of 50 points to his mana.

—?'If I get some special items in the future, there is still a chance to redistribute the free attribute points.'

Therefore, in just a short period of time, he had allocated a few of his newly gained attribute points to the rest of his attributes. No need to be so complicated.

Ling Yi refocused himself on the current situation.

When the Beast King, the Unparalleled Sword Demon, raised its eyes and saw the Ice Queen and Ling Yi, it quickly activated [Spacetime Freeze]!

In an instant, time and space in the entire area stopped.

Even though the Unparalleled Sword Demon had resistance to crowd control for 10 seconds at most within a minute, the two of them were still racing against time to deal damage!

Ling Yi — [Triple Seal], Hundredfold Wind Ball!

Ice Queen — Thousand Falling Ice Rain!

The Beast King's physique had a combat power of 128,000 points, and Ling Yi's current mana was over 130,000 points.

In theory, a wind ball that had been condensed for a few seconds could cause about 1% to 1.1% damage.

At a hundred times the damage, if the Beast King did not have any damage reduction abilities, it would be enough to kill him in an instant!

Unfortunately, the Unparalleled Sword Demon's [Phantom Streamer] had a passive effect of reducing damage by 30%. Therefore, both his hundred times attack and the Ice Queen's attack were weakened.

10 seconds later…

While the frozen time and space state was still in effect, the crowd control effect on the Unparalleled Sword Demon was removed thanks to its passive Skill, [Shadow Devil Body].

It was also at this moment that Ling Yi saw the effect of this Skill.

[Shadow Devil Body (9 Star) (Passive)]: Immune to debuffs and under 10 seconds of control for the same minute. In addition, it can absorb nearby light and darken the surrounding area.

"Not a bad resistance Skill… However, I already have absolute guard, so it's useless against me."

Ling Yi's current agility was too low, and he wouldn't be able to see the Beast King's figure when they fought later. Thus, Ling Yi quickly copied the Ice Queen's agility.

The next moment–

He saw a blur of a black shadow rushing towards him!

"[Holy Shield]!" Ling Yi reflexively shouted.

Before his voice had died away, a golden ball of light appeared around him, engulfing him within its protection bubble.

From the outside, it looked like a light golden ball of light.

When the Unparalleled Sword Demon's black sword, wrapped in raging flames, slashed at the Golden Ball of light— Ling Yi remained safe.

Not even a small crack on his shield.

Upon seeing this, the Unparalleled Sword Demon turned its fiery eyes to the Ice Queen, raised its sword, and rushed toward her.

The Ice Queen removed he [Spacetime Freeze] while taking out her S-grade weapon, Zero Degree Ice Spike, and began to valiantly fight against it.

One ice and one fire, one icy spear and one hot raging sword.

When the two weapons clashed, a mist of steam rose into the air.

In the blink of an eye, the mist covered an area of several thousand meters.

Of course—

The current Ice Queen was no match for the Unparalleled Sword Demon. Sure she could block its attacks, but she wouldn't be able to hurt it in the slightest.

Ling Yi removed the invincible Divine Shield and quickly checked the Beast King's vitality.

[Current Status: 14.77%]

'Excellent! After using our big moves, he only has about 10% HP left!'

'Next, as long as I can accumulate more Longevity Factor and use it together with the Ice Queen's single target control Skill, [Frosty Prison Pull], I'll be able to kill it!'

This was Ling Yi's ideal situation.

In fact, it would be extremely difficult to control the Unparalleled Sword Demon.

The reason why [Spacetime Freeze] was able to control it in the first place was the fact that it was an AoE control Skill. As long as the enemy was within this range, they would be controlled.

Including [Frost Prison's Pull], most control Skills had to lock onto a single target.

This meant that the prerequisite for controlling an opponent was for the Skill to hit the target!

The Ice Queen's agility combat power was (59 x 2,090=123,310), while the Unparalleled Sword Demon's agility combat power was (80 x 2,400=192,000). The difference was within one fold.

Under such circumstances, although it was difficult to hit the oponent, there was still hope.
