59: Chapter 59 Bloodbath Against the King Beast! Six-Layer Shield, Standing Still and Dealing Damage!
The Void Jitaï Beast was like a black meteorite, smashing down from the sky toward the cliff where Lin Feng was!
Its massive five-meter-long body carried a terrifying sonic boom during its dive.
In those pure black eyes, Lin Feng's tiny figure was reflected.
"Sand Control—Thousandfold Sand Wall!"
Lin Feng didn't retreat; instead, he Advanced, thrusting his hands upward!
Boom boom boom boom!!!
The sand on the ground surged frantically, instantly stacking ten thick sand walls in front of him!
Each one was half a meter thick, three meters high, and five meters wide!
Layered upon layer, they were like a moving city wall!
Bang!!!!!!
The Void Jitaï Beast slammed hard into the first sand wall!
The sand wall vibrated violently, and spiderweb-like cracks appeared on its surface, but... it didn't break!
"Roar?!"
The Jitaï Beast clearly hadn't expected this seemingly fragile sand to be so hard.
It wanted to retreat and dive again.
But Lin Feng gave it no chance.
"Sand Control—Quicksand Trap!"
The ground beneath the Jitaï Beast's feet instantly softened, turning into a ten-meter diameter quicksand swamp!
"Roar!!!"
The Jitaï Beast's massive body began to sink!
The suction of the quicksand was extremely strong; in the blink of an eye, it had submerged up to its knees!
"A good chance!"
Lin Feng's eyes lit up, and he raised both hands simultaneously.
Left hand—Fireball Technique + Blasting Light Flame Technique + Light Bullet Technique!
Right hand—Lightning Strike Technique + Wind Blade Technique + Ice Cone Technique!
"Six-Skill Fusion—Elemental Judgment!"
Buzz!!!
Six-colored light frantically intertwined, rotated, and fused in his palms!
This time, Lin Feng injected fifty thousand mana—his current maximum consumption for a single Fusion!
Three seconds later, the Fusion was complete.
What appeared wasn't a ball or a spear, but a... rainbow-colored light pillar?
No, it was more like an energy cannon barrel composed of pure elemental energy, about three meters long and as thick as a bucket!
The barrel was aimed at the Jitaï Beast trapped in the quicksand.
"For me—Blast!!!"
Lin Feng growled, and the barrel erupted with blinding rainbow light!
Boom!!!!!!!!!!
A rainbow energy torrent half a meter in diameter sprayed out!
Like a rainbow bridge, it instantly crossed a hundred-meter distance and slammed hard into the Jitaï Beast's chest!
-21350!
A five-digit damage number jumped up!
The Jitaï Beast let out a painful roar as a scorched crater was blasted into its chest, dark purple blood gushing out like a fountain.
But...
With a total health pool of 1.5 million, this strike had only shaved off less than 1.5%!
"The damage still isn't enough..."
Lin Feng frowned.
His current spirit is 660, and his magic attack is 3,300.
With a six-skill Fusion, calculating an average multiplier of 5x for each skill, a Fusion coefficient of 3x, plus the bonus from elemental counter...
Being able to deal twenty thousand is already quite good.
"It looks like this will have to be a battle of attrition."
Lin Feng took a deep breath and adjusted his tactics.
Since a single burst wasn't enough, he would grind it down with sustained output!
Anyway, he had 220,000 mana and a fast recovery speed; he could afford to wait!
"Water Shield!"
"Light Shield!"
"Earth Shield!"
"Wind Shield!"
Lin Feng cast four layers of magic shields of different attributes on himself in one breath!
A light blue Water Shield, a golden Light Shield, an earthy yellow Earth Shield, and a cyan Wind Shield.
The four layers of shields stacked, like four differently colored eggshells, wrapping him up tightly.
Each layer of shield could absorb spirit × 3 damage, which was 1,980 points.
Four layers totaled 7,920 points!
But that wasn't enough.
"Sand Control—Sand Armor!"
Clatter—
The surrounding sand surged onto Lin Feng's body, forming a thick suit of Sand Armor.
The armor covered his entire body, leaving only his eyes exposed.
[Sand Armor (Earth-type Defense)]
[Effect: Defense +300, can absorb 5,000 points of damage]
[Description: Temporary armor condensed from sand, with decent defensive power]
"And..."
Lin Feng pulled a bottle of Advanced Defense Potion from his wanxiang ring and downed it.
[Temporary Defense +150, lasts 10 minutes]
"Another bottle of Fortitude Potion!"
He downed another bottle.
[Temporary Max HP +2,000, lasts 10 minutes]
After finishing all this, Lin Feng checked his status.
Health Points: 223,750 (Base + tower soul + Temporary)
Defense: 175 (Base) + 300 (Sand Armor) + 150 (Potion) = 625
Shield Value: Four layers of magic shields 7,920 + Sand Armor 5,000 = 12,920
"I should be able to withstand it now."
Lin Feng grinned and looked at the Jitaï Beast that had just struggled out of the quicksand.
"Now... it's my turn to deal damage."
He raised his hands again.
This time, he wouldn't bother with a fancy six-skill Fusion.
He would just choose the simplest combination.
"Light Bullet Technique + Lightning Strike Technique—Fusion: Light-Thunder Arrow!"
Puff! Puff! Puff!
One by one, gold and purple energy arrows as thick as arms shot toward the Jitaï Beast continuously, like machine-gun fire!
The damage of each arrow was around 8,000.
Not high, but fast!
He could fire three per second!
The Jitaï Beast had just broken free from the quicksand and hadn't even steadied itself before it was enveloped by the rain of arrows.
Puff puff puff puff puff!
The arrows pierced its body, blooming clouds of blood.
-8120! -7980! -8050!
Damage numbers jumped up like a scrolling chat.
"Roar!!!"
The Jitaï Beast was completely enraged.
It opened its large mouth, and a pitch-black, eerie light glowed deep in its throat.
Skill: Dark Breath!
Whoosh—!!!
A thick black energy pillar spewed out!
Wherever it passed, vegetation withered, rocks corroded, and the air let out a "sizzling" wail.
"Bring it on!"
Lin Feng didn't dodge; he stood his ground and continued firing with both hands.
The Dark Breath slammed hard into the shields in front of him!
The first layer, the Water Shield, shattered instantly!
-1980!
The second layer, the Light Shield, lasted two seconds before also breaking!
-1980!
The third layer, the Earth Shield, held on for three more seconds before likewise cracking!
-1980!
The fourth layer, the Wind Shield, barely held on for five seconds under the continuous impact of the Dark Breath before finally collapsing.
-1980!
All four layers of shields were broken!
The remaining energy of the Dark Breath continued to blast against the Sand Armor.
The surface of the Sand Armor flickered frantically, and the absorbed damage values jumped wildly.
1000... 2000... 3000... 4000...
Just at the moment it was about to be destroyed—
The Dark Breath ended.
Remaining Sand Armor absorption: 1,000/5,000.
"Blocked it!"
Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
The full-power strike of a King-tier monster had been endured by him!
Although the shields were all shattered and the Sand Armor was on the verge of collapse, he himself... was unharmed!
"My turn!"
Lin Feng raised his hands again.
"Fireball Technique + Blasting Light Flame Technique + Wind Blade Technique—Fusion: Fire Tornado!"
Injected thirty thousand mana!
Boom!!!
A Fire Tornado three meters in diameter and ten meters high took shape!
Inside the tornado were cutting wind blades, and outside were burning flames as it whistled toward the Jitaï Beast!
The Jitaï Beast wanted to dodge, but the Fire Tornado had a built-in suction effect and was firmly locked onto it.
"Roar—!!!"
It was swallowed by the tornado, its body struggling frantically amidst the flames and wind blades.
-18500! -18700! -18900...
The continuous damage ticked every second!
Although the individual damage wasn't high, the duration was long—a full ten seconds!
Ten seconds meant over 180,000 damage!
"Continue!"
Lin Feng didn't stop for a moment, throwing several more Fusion skills over.
"Ice Cone Technique + Lightning Strike Technique—Fusion: Frost-Electric Chain!"
"Earth Wall Technique + Light Bullet Technique—Fusion: Light-Earth Cannon!"
"Water Arrow Technique + Wind Blade Technique—Fusion: Water-Blade Storm!"
For a while, rainbow lights flashed wildly in the valley, and explosions sounded continuously.
The Jitaï Beast was blasted dizzy by the various Fusion skills.
It wanted to counterattack, but every time it charged up a skill, it would be interrupted by Lin Feng using sand walls, quicksand, or Ground Spikes.
It wanted to get close, but Lin Feng was surrounded by obstacles formed of sand, making it impossible to charge in.
It wanted to fly away, but Lin Feng would immediately use a Sand Hand to pull it back down.
It was completely suppressed!
"This feeling... is great!"
Lin Feng got more and more into the rhythm as he fought.
He was like a turret, standing in place with his hands never stopping, throwing out various Fusion skills as if they cost nothing.
Mana consumption?
With a total of 220,000 and the recovery speed, it was completely enough!
Defense issues?
If the shields broke, he'd cast them again; if the Sand Armor was gone, he'd condense it again!
Anyway, there was sand everywhere, inexhaustible and endless!
The only problem was... the damage still wasn't enough.
The Jitaï Beast's health pool was simply too thick.
At 1.5 million, even if it stood still and let him hit it, it would take a long time.
"I'll just grind it down slowly..."
Lin Feng had a good mindset.
Anyway, he was safe now, and the Jitaï Beast couldn't hurt him.
And so, the battle turned into a war of attrition.
Lin Feng was like a tireless machine, continuously dealing damage.
The Jitaï Beast was like a beast trapped in a cage, struggling frantically but to no avail.
Time passed minute by minute.
Five minutes.
Ten minutes.
Fifteen minutes...
The Jitaï Beast's health finally dropped to... 30%!
Of 1.5 million health, 30% was 450,000.
In other words, in twenty minutes, Lin Feng had dealt 1.05 million damage!
An average of over 50,000 per minute, nearly a thousand points per second.
For a Level 16 Explorer, this output was already terrifying.
"Almost there... just a little longer..."
Lin Feng was also getting a bit tired.
Continuous high-intensity spellcasting consumed a lot of Mental Energy.
While his mana was sufficient, the mental exhaustion was real.
He downed a bottle of Advanced Spirit Recovery Potion and felt his mind clear up a bit.
"One last wave to send you on your way!"
Lin Feng took a deep breath, preparing to use his trump card.
"All Light-type skills—Fusion: Super Holy Light Judgment!"
Light Bullet Technique + Light Flame Slash + Blasting Light Flame Technique + Illumination Spell!
A four-skill Fusion, injecting eighty thousand mana!
Buzz—
A ten-meter-long Greatsword composed entirely of golden Holy Light slowly condensed above Lin Feng's head.
Holy runes flowed upon the blade, emitting a majestic aura that purified all evil.
This was the strongest Light-type Fusion skill Lin Feng could currently control!
"Slash!"
Lin Feng gripped the air with both hands and slashed down with force!
The golden Holy Light Greatsword sliced through the air, striking toward the Jitaï Beast with the momentum of judgment!
The Jitaï Beast sensed a fatal threat.
It let out an unwilling roar, and in its pure black eyes, a hint of... blood-red suddenly flashed?
"Roar—!!!"
It no longer dodged; instead, it threw its head back and roared.
The black patterns on its body's surface began to wriggle, expand, and spread frantically!
The wounds inflicted by Lin Feng healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Its size began to swell once again!
From five meters long, it grew to six meters, seven meters...
The bone-spur wings on its back became wider and thicker, and the bone spurs grew longer and sharper.
The most terrifying part was its aura—on top of the original dark evil, there was now a... violent, chaotic aura that seemed intent on destroying everything!
"Not good! It's about to transform!"
Lin Feng's heart sank.
He wanted to speed up the descent of the Holy Light Greatsword.
But it was too late.
A thick cloud of black mist suddenly exploded from the surface of the Jitaï Beast's body!
The black mist completely enveloped it, cutting off the Holy Light Greatsword's lock-on.
Boom!!!
The Greatsword struck the black mist, erupting with blinding light.
But it only cut halfway in before being blocked firmly by the black mist, unable to advance even an inch further.
"Roar... Human... You... are very good..."
From within the black mist came a low, hoarse voice that sounded like metal scraping.
It wasn't a beast's roar.
It was... speaking?!
"You... forced me... to use... my true power..."
The black mist began to shrink inward.
With every inch it shrank, the aura inside became a degree more terrifying.
Lin Feng could feel that something extremely frightening... was awakening.
"Originally... I wanted to preserve my strength... to find those... humans who imprisoned me..."
"But you... have made me... have to... do so prematurely..."
The black mist finished shrinking completely.
Revealing... a brand-new form within.
Lin Feng's pupils suddenly constricted.
The thing before him was no longer the Void Jitaï Beast.
But rather...
