Chapter 920: Chapter 921: Proactive Release_1

Hidden tasks in the game can often be shared, but the overall task rewards don’t change, meaning that for each additional person who completes the task, the rewards for others get diluted.

If it weren’t for Song Jian, Tula and his team might have gotten a Skill Book of epic profession for each member upon completion of the task. However, with the addition of Song Jian, they could only possibly get a Dark Gold or even a gold-quality Skill Book each.

The more people sharing the task, the lower the tier of Skill Books each person receives.

Sharing the task with Song Jian actually filled every member of Tula’s team with dissatisfaction, as it would dilute their rewards. But now it seemed that without Song Jian, they wouldn’t be able to complete the task at all.

“We can’t have no contribution at all, right? That would be too embarrassing,” Solanda murmured, feeling somewhat ashamed.

“Full output!” Tula said with a grimace, feeling like he was riding on someone else’s coattails—an intolerable feeling for someone with strong pride.

“Boss, should we use that move?” Solanda suddenly asked.

“No, that’s our life-saving skill, and it’s not time to use it yet,” Tula said immediately. “Yani, fly up and attack from the sky. Be careful and keep your distance.”

Among Tula’s team, only Yani had the ability to fly. The others could only attack from the ground, but often Song Jian and the BOSS would fly high out of their attack range.

“No problem, boss. Leave it to me, Elf Wings!” With a thought, Yani materialized a pair of transparent, luminescent wings on his back. The wings, though seeming delicate and covered in fine patterns, resembled the intricacy of a spider’s web.

Yani took to the air, bow in hand, closely following behind the BOSS, unleashing skills constantly. His damage against the dominion-level BOSS was too low—just barely penetrating defenses with most hits in the double digits and occasionally bursting into hundreds, which to the BOSS was no different than a mosquito bite.

If it weren’t for the debuff on the BOSS’s status bar preventing recovery, Yani’s damage would probably be less than the BOSS’s automatic Vitality Point regeneration.

At that moment, Song Jian flew high, then dove toward the streets, his unpredictable flight trajectory dodging the BOSS’s attacks time and again.

However, a prolonged defense inevitably leads to failure, and Song Jian was once again struck hard by several iron chains on his back. A mouthful of blood sprayed out, and his recently recovered over five thousand Vitality Points were reduced by half in an instant.

Song Jian was slammed down onto the street, causing large stone slabs to shatter. He felt a tingle in his scalp and saw a dark shadow flying toward him from the corner of his eye.

Soul Wander was still on cooldown. With a thought, Song Jian’s figure vanished from the spot, and a dozen black iron chains passed through where he had been.

Gasping for breath in the broken Divine Country, Song Jian gulped down a potion with “glug, glug” sounds.

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.

The Divine Country had already been nourished by the soul power of two dominion-level BOSSes. The mountain range in the distance was almost back to its original state, with the fine cracks on the surface no longer visible and little saplings beginning to sprout in the mountains, suggesting that in not too long, the entire mountain range would return to its lush state.

“What a pity, the Divine Country hasn’t fully recovered yet, otherwise, I could have dragged the BOSS straight into the Divine Country and used divine power to grind it to death!” Song Jian clenched his teeth, guzzling down potion after potion, thinking to himself;

Unfortunately, this idea of his was not going to be realized for a long time to come. Not to mention how long it would take for the Divine Country to recover, even if it were fully restored, without divine power, Song Jian wouldn’t be able to harness the power of the Divine Country to hunt down the BOSS.

After his Vitality Points were fully restored, Song Jian immediately left the Divine Country. At that moment, he saw the BOSS charging towards Tula’s team. Yani was awkwardly dodging the sky full of iron chains, while on the street below, Tula and the others were attacking the BOSS with all their might, Tula had even rushed right in front of the BOSS with a double-handed sword, desperately hacking at its thighs;

Song Jian floated in mid-air, his gaze locked on the BOSS, and with a thought, the Invisible Sword Qi inside him surged like a tide into the Sky-breaking Sword in his hand;

“Karmic Fire Red Lotus…” Song Jian whispered in a low voice, “Thousand Swords Art!”

In an instant, the Thousand Swords Art, which normally consumed only one hundred forty Sword Qi Value, drained all of Song Jian’s Invisible Sword Qi in a flash, and sharp Sword Qi burst forth from the surface of the Sky-breaking Sword like lightning;

In a split second, sixty Spirit Swords ablaze with raging flames appeared around Song Jian’s body. As he flung his right hand forward, the Spirit Swords emitted a deep roar, transforming into blazing hot flames during flight. These flames looked like red lotus leaves, ultimately converging to form a giant fiery red lotus flower;

“Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Formation!” Song Jian shouted lowly, and the red lotus bloomed explosively, enveloping the Dominating-class BOSS within it;

Sword Qi slashed towards the BOSS relentlessly, the scorching flames bombarding its body nonstop. The horrifying temperature cracked its skin and flesh in an instant;

Rolling heat waves swept in all directions, causing all the surrounding players to turn pale and retreat hastily. Being caught in such fearsome flames would undoubtedly mean more bad luck than good;

Tula and the others brightened up, never expecting Song Jian to have such a terrifying move up his sleeve. Seeing the smile that appeared at the corner of Song Jian’s mouth, Tula breathed a sigh of relief;

In fact, Song Jian himself hadn’t expected that he would be able to trigger the Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Formation directly. It was just that the more Invisible Sword Qi he used, the more powerful the skill would be. Song Jian had subconsciously wanted to strengthen the power of the Thousand Swords Art, but he had accidentally hit the bullseye!

The scorching Karmic Fire Red Lotus, mixed with the tyrannical and sharp Sword Qi, was like a giant millstone, grinding against the power of the Dominating-class BOSS;

The BOSS’s roars echoed through Sky City, and after a stalemate of no more than three seconds, the Karmic Fire Red Lotus erupted with a wave of heat, its sixty petals began to close slowly, executing the final grind on the BOSS;

At this moment, the BOSS’s Vitality Points had dropped to less than one-third. Desperation was written all over its face as it seemed to foresee its tragic end;

A massive sword phantom emerged from the closing lotus, growing bit by bit in midair. The moment it fully formed, resolute golden Sword Qi blossomed from the sword, as if an invisible hand was maneuvering it, and it struck fiercely at the closing lotus;

…
