Chapter 803 - 798: How Can He One-Shot Me!
Rob never expected that the dozens of low-level Fire Snake magic spells that Bai Pu had been sustaining were all for this very moment.
Even if he had foreseen it, Rob couldn’t do anything because he was locked onto by the Demon Throat’s "Demon Abyssal Mouth" innate skill.
Suddenly, Rob’s vision turned fiery red, as if he were in a scorching sea of fire, and in his daze, red lotuses blossomed!
A wave of agitation surged from the depths of his heart, quickly evolving into rage, and the impulse to kill all enemies!
The accumulated damage from dozens of fire snakes directly pushed the Karmic Fire to 20 layers!
In Rob’s vision, the Black Shark Race people, who were supposed to be dead, suddenly stood up one by one, walking towards him like spectral apparitions!
This sight made Rob’s heart creep. At this moment, he had lost his rationality, and he swung his weapon frantically toward these ghosts without hesitation.
But the Black Shark spectral apparitions kept coming!
In his haze, the vengeful spirits that had once met their ends under Rob’s hands appeared again, walking towards him in terrifyingly uncanny poses.
"This isn’t real... This is an illusion, a spiritual attack!"
Rob bit his lip, trying to use the pain to bring himself back to consciousness.
Yet, upon opening his eyes, countless specters remained in front of him!
Even though Rob attempted to use decoupling methods, he failed due to priority reasons.
What’s more damning is...
As Rob lost his mental focus, the "Dimension Corridor" he had been maintaining to interfere with Bai Pu’s senses was announced to be over.
Once Bai Pu’s senses returned to normal, he immediately aimed at Rob, and with a slash of his spear, powered up [Cannon Bombardment]!
The energy of the Mountain and Sea Shield concentrated at the spear tip, the Doomsday Blade’s spear tip carrying a nearly space-tearing finely woven black crack, pointing at Rob from seven or eight meters away.
The mere power stored without release made Bron’s scalp tingle—this strike was terrifying!
The overflowing energy even caused light space tears in the Awakened World, unbearable to withstand.
Why is a mere remote native’s professional energy so pure? Why is the priority so dreadful?
Bron’s eyes quickly surveyed the battlefield, amazed that the Demons were already at an absolute disadvantage, not only getting killed one by one, but even the Red Race Awakened under his command were gradually diminishing.
Though Dong Bochengzhi stood alone, he effortlessly triumphed over Demon General Blood Weave and her Swamp Demon Spiders, carving blood flowers on Blood Weave’s exterior with Peacock Feather, while Blood Weave’s counterattack failed to touch his corner!
Even as Blood Weave called for Swamp Demon Spider support, it was futile; as Dong Bochengzhi spun gracefully like an antelope hanging a corner without a trace of smoke and fire, his sword landed strikingly on the Swamp Demon Spiders’ vital points, causing immediate death.
At the Awakened level, Bai Pu’s Furnace Squad, once combined, could rival any talented Awakened when dealing with Bron Team’s Red Race, easily overpowering them!
Fortunately, the Red Race Awakened of Bron Team, being part of a large force, received rigorous formation and defense training, coordinating quite closely, barely holding on.
But their individual strength is inferior to the Furnace Squad, and their cooperation isn’t as smooth; they only have the advantage in numbers, which Salacia’s continuous summonings of the Tree-man Legion somewhat offset!
The current shaky support is like dancing on a steel wire, where any slip could lead to someone suffering serious injury or even death! Gradually diminishing cases are unavoidable.
"We can’t beat them... I hate that Kuzan died under Dong Bochengzhi’s sword in the battle at Palace of Roots, otherwise he could’ve held off Rein, easing the pressure greatly!"
Through this battle, Bron realized. His direct team, against Bai Pu’s hastily assembled team... was already at a disadvantage at the Awakened level!
Moreover, they were caught off-guard by Bai Pu’s ambush, the team only came to Broken Island Reef to bully Black Shark People, unprepared for a direct confrontation with Bai Pu’s team!
Furthermore, Rob faces the threat of Gangxin’s ultimate move...
This thought passed quickly, within a fleeting moment.
"Retreat."
Bron gritted his teeth, took out a scroll that flashed with a silver-white brilliance.
[Moon God’s Gate: S-level Silver Artifact, upon use, activates a space portal for group teleportation, casting group teleportation on all allies within a hundred-meter radius, while calling down the Moon God’s power of space to protect all allies from harm and control effects. Body protection priority of the space power is (10) points.]
[Warning: Group teleportation requires 3 seconds, the target location is random, but won’t transport to irrational, uninhabitable, or impossible-to-act-in special terrains. Targets in teleportation can’t act.]
In an instant, all the Awakened of Bron Team’s bodies were covered with a thin layer of silver-white brilliance.
Everything touching this silver-white brilliance, be it wind, waves, reefs, or enemy weapons or energy, showed peculiar distortive deviations.
This is the protective effect of space power, immune to external attacks or control during teleportation!
Under the protection of the silver-white brilliance, Bron felt he could move again.
"Gangxin! We’re walking—"
Before the word "look" was even uttered, Bai Pu’s Doomsday Blade spear tip, with a deft flick of his hand, already aimed and pierced Rob!
Mountain and Sea Appearance - Cannon Bombing!
The blue-gold energy transformed into a massive Fighting Qi Rainbow, straight toward Rob’s heart.
This Fighting Qi Rainbow was surrounded by concentric circles of spatial cracks, evidently surpassing the Tier One Awakened World’s limit, causing spatial tears!
The silver-white brilliance coating Rob’s body was ruthlessly torn by Cannon Bombardment’s higher priority.
And the second layer of protection on Rob’s body—the "Melt Core Shelter" applied by Bron—was negated by the simulation frequency of the Tidal Power surrounding the blue-gold rainbow’s outer layer.
Bai Pu suffered so many punches from Bron, not in vain; he had been quietly perceiving and simulating Bron’s energy wave frequency!
Now, this strike was successful.
The Tide Mystical Arts "tricked" open the protective energy, and the Mountain Shattering Mystical Arts, accompanied by pure Prismatic Demon Fighting Qi, drove straight in.
Bang!
The blue-gold Fighting Qi Rainbow finally completely transformed into golden, filled with the spear tip’s mountain-collapse force, piercing violently into Rob’s chest.
-4764!
Crack, crack...
Rob’s chestbone caved in, along with the collapse and decay phenomenon of the organs penetrated by the rainbow.
Just like toppling a domino chain, Rob’s body started cracking with the penetration, spreading until whole.
In the moment before his body broke apart, Rob still couldn’t believe it, screaming wildly in the team channel:
"No... Impossible! I have 71% damage reduction, 6000 health, what qualifies him to insta-kill me, what qualifies him to insta-kill me!"
Before the words could be uttered, Rob’s body completely exploded, dying on the spot!
Bron’s mind was almost blank.
He quickly calculated.
The skill theoretical damage that could penetrate Rob’s 71% reduction coefficient and cause 4700+ actual damage to insta-kill Rob, implied Gangxin’s strike at least had 16000+!
In an instant, Bron seemed to understand why Bai Pu rated him "not strong in output"...
