294: Killing the Xuan Turtle

Zhu Rong led his people several hundred meters back and watched from afar, wanting to see just how large the gap was between them and the number one person of star abyss.

Huang Chen wasted no more time, his gaze locked onto the Black Tortoise, which was moving slowly and whose shell was as thick and heavy as a mountain.

"Li Ruo, you just watch from the periphery."

"Understood, Hubby!" Li Ruo replied crisply.

Huang Chen took a deep breath, and dark golden light flashed around his body.

"Soul Severing Stab!" Huang Chen shouted in a low voice, charging directly towards the Black Tortoise.

The Black Tortoise had been kited continuously until now. Seeing someone dare to charge straight at it, a hint of human-like cruelty flashed in its eyes. It opened its mouth toward Huang Chen, and a light blue glow flickered inside. Immediately after, a huge Ice Arrow condensed in its mouth and shot straight at Huang Chen, moving slightly faster than Huang Chen's figure using the Soul Severing Stab.

Facing the incoming Ice Arrow, Huang Chen tightened his grip on his long spear, but showed no intention of slowing down or dodging.

"Why isn't God Huang dodging?" the young man beside Zhu Rong asked in horror. Although the Black Tortoise was slow in attack speed, its attack power was incredibly high. During the siege just now, several comrades were instantly killed by carelessness.

Zhu Rong shook his head, but his eyes remained fixed on Huang Chen.

He was certain that the other party had a backup plan; otherwise, he wouldn't deserve the title of the number one person of star abyss.

Sure enough, just as the Ice Arrow was about to hit Huang Chen, he suddenly took a sidestep, forcibly interrupting his Soul Severing Stab. At the same time, he swung the long spear horizontally, hitting the Ice Arrow and forming a huge C shape.

The long spear rebounded, and Huang Chen used the force of the rebound to leap fiercely, landing directly behind the Black Tortoise.

"Returning Wind Falling Goose!"

-322,123!

A massive damage number appeared!

"What?" the young man beside Zhu Rong cried out in surprise.

Among their group of over a hundred people, only Zhu Rong could deal nearly ten thousand damage to the Black Tortoise; everyone else only managed a few hundred to a thousand.

Yet Huang Chen dealt 300,000 damage with just a level ten ordinary skill.

Considering their Potential Points were all 6,000, how high must the opponent's Skill Realm be to cause such immense damage?

"As expected of the number one person of star abyss." Zhu Rong sighed. He knew there was a considerable gap between him and Huang Chen, but he never expected the difference to be so vast.

Based on this damage, the opponent's Skill Realm must have reached the level of perfection, perhaps even the peak of perfection.

"What a monster!" Zhu Rong sighed inwardly again. Profound realms, extremely high attributes, plus over a dozen rare Halos... This Huang Chen was even harder to deal with in the Star Abyss than a Level 100 Saint-tier boss.

On the other side, the Black Tortoise roared dully in pain. Its massive body suddenly turned toward Huang Chen, opening its huge mouth full of sharp teeth to bite down. For its size, this speed was already extremely fast.

Huang Chen shifted his feet, his figure sidestepping like a ghost, easily avoiding the bite. With a half-turn, he was behind the Black Tortoise again.

"Blood Battle in Eight Directions!"

Puff! Puff! Puff... -310,250! -371,255!... Dense and heavy striking sounds merged into one continuous noise. Every strike hit the same spot, and each subsequent strike dealt deeper damage.

After eight strikes, the cyan shell that had been attacked was covered in dense cracks, and light blue blood gushed out from the fissures.

"Roar~" The Black Tortoise was completely enraged, stomping its single leg hard onto the ground!

Rumble!

Centered on the Black Tortoise, the ground violently shook for dozens of meters around. Countless sharp Rock Spikes and Ice Shards suddenly generated from beneath the ground like bamboo shoots after rain, completely covering Huang Chen's position.

Huang Chen completely ignored the Black Tortoise's area attack and did not activate his Black and Yellow Body. He chose to tank the damage directly.

The dense Ice Shards struck Huang Chen, but each shard only managed to take away a few hundred of his HP.

"Yang Guan Three Stacks!"

The Black Tortoise didn't turn, and Huang Chen continued his attack... Soon, five minutes later, the Black Tortoise wailed and collapsed.

Throughout the entire process, apart from some area-of-effect skills, the Black Tortoise couldn't even touch the hem of Huang Chen's clothes.

[Ding! Killed Boss Black Tortoise, gained Score and Contribution Value +5,000!]

Two system notification sounds rang in the ears of Huang Chen and Li Ruo, respectively.

Li Ruo excitedly opened the Score ranking board. Her Score had now reached over 14,000 points, giving her a lead of nearly six thousand points over Tie Shengnan, who was in third place.

Zhu Rong and the others standing far away watched Huang Chen defeat the famously defensive Black Tortoise in just five minutes, and their eyes widened. Even though they knew Huang Chen was strong, they couldn't imagine him being so ridiculously powerful. One must remember that in the Asura Field, no system functions could be used, and everyone, apart from their Skill Realms, was on the same starting line.

Soon, Huang Chen walked toward them, bringing Li Ruo along.

Zhu Rong's faction stirred slightly upon Huang Chen's arrival. If such a Humanoid Boss decided to attack them, they wondered how many could escape.

"Thank you all for keeping watch for me," Huang Chen said with a smile.

Zhu Rong gave a wry smile and said, "With your strength, who would dare try to steal your boss? I'd thank heaven and earth if you didn't treat us as Score fodder."

Huang Chen awkwardly rubbed his nose, considering he had just stolen someone else's boss.

But then again, the Asura Battlefield encouraged Trial Takers to compete with each other. By not attacking Zhu Rong and his group, Huang Chen was definitely doing them a huge favor.

At this moment, Zhu Rong cupped his fists and said again, "Alright, since the boss has been killed, we will part ways here. I hope that when we meet again, we will be friends, not enemies."

"Sure!" Huang Chen also recognized Zhu Rong's character.

After exchanging greetings, the two went their separate ways. After all, belonging to different factions meant they couldn't possibly team up to farm Score.

Huang Chen checked the time. There were about two hours left in the Asura Battlefield.

"Let's go, time to farm kills." Huang Chen picked up Li Ruo and shot straight into the sky, flying toward the red dots on the map.

Two hours later, the Asura Battlefield ended. Huang Chen ranked first with over 45,000 points, Li Ruo took second with over 37,000 points, while third-place Tie Shengnan only managed 14,000 points.

After all, the further they progressed, the more Trial Takers from different factions realized that grouping up was the safest way to earn Score. Currently, apart from Huang Chen, virtually no one could fight dozens or hundreds of people alone.

Returning to Jinling City, Huang Chen immediately summoned Tie Shengnan and a few others for a meeting.

The 11 Soul Devouring Bee Swarms had been frantically absorbing Soul Power in the City of Dawn during this time, and their combined scale now approached ten billion.

It was time to consider assaulting the Mirror Shadow Tower. Huang Chen's original plan was to first use the Soul Devouring Bees to weaken the monsters surrounding the Mirror Shadow Tower, using a point attack to affect the area, and then use the mist shadow spear to create a Puppet Army and slowly clear the area.

However, the appearance of the Asura Battlefield interrupted his plan. It would definitely take several days to clear out all the monsters near the Mirror Shadow Tower, and the four hours per day spent in the Asura Battlefield would interrupt the rhythm of the conquest.

But difficult problems like this Huang Chen usually left for Tie Shengnan and Xie Chunyan to worry about... Meanwhile, in Area 21542, the Vajra Race officially applied for a National War against the Elf Clan immediately after the Asura Battlefield concluded...
