Immediately after, the system's cold notification sounded.
[System Notification: The Fiery Battlefield Remnants has activated divine blood. Divine Wrath is about to be activated. All attributes will be increased by three times. This lasts for 30 seconds! After 30 seconds, your enemy will be exhausted due to consuming divine blood. It would then enter a weakened state.]
As soon as he finished reading the system notification, the giant statue roared into the sky. The flames were retracted into its body. Rings of faint golden halos that were filled with a holy aura now spread out from its body. The last drop of HP that was left instantly recovered!
Li Yi looked over and his eyelids twitched!
[Level 14 Fiery Battlefield Relic (normal)]
[Vitality: 180,000]
[Physical Attack: 3,600]
[Physical Defense: 2,700]
[Magic Defense: 1,800]
[Skills: Fatal Protection, Focus of Fire]
[Divine Blood: 0 points]
[Other: A powerful monster that is able to active Divine Blood]
Looking at the changing attribute panel of the Fiery Battlefield Remnant, Li Yi's jaw dropped. He was dumbfounded…
This attribute value was now three times higher than before!
Even the Yin Scorpion King was not as ridiculous as this Boss after it went berserk!
Not far away from the Relic, golden light appeared in its dark eyes. It spat out flames from its mouth and looked straight at Li Yi. Its eyes were filled with human-like anger.
Li Yi felt a chill down his spine. He did not hesitate at all.. He immediately put away his shield and ran away with a swoosh!
Chapter 59: Run, Battle of the Gods!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li Yi carried the magic weapon on his back and ran all the way without looking back!
Behind him, a huge human-shaped stone statue knocked on its chest and roared crazily at him.
It seemed to have endless anger and resentment toward Li Yi.
That's right, Li Yi chose to run, and he had no intention of going back to fight it head-on. A normal person would run away when faced with such a monster that wanted to crush everything and anything in its way!
Those who would not run away were probably crazy.
"Damn it, is this Divine Blood the blood of a true God?!"
Li Yi ran non-stop. Suddenly a thought appeared in his mind, in his previous life, Li Yi was a Demigod Berserker. When the Battle of the Gods began, Li Yi was fighting at the front line.
One day, he heard a piece of information that he did not know if it was true or not. According to the information, the gods that were fighting with them at that time were all false gods!
The true gods were still sleeping in the Divine Realm and did not come out to fight.
Now that he thought about it, an ordinary monster having such extraordinary attributes, skills, and Divine Blood displayed on its interface. Other than the so-called true god, Li Yi really could not think of any other way to triple an ordinary monster's skill stats!
"Roar!!"
Before he could think further, a huge roar came from behind him, piercing through Li Yi's eardrums and causing him to feel pain in his ears.
"Damn it, I'll let you be arrogant for a while longer, just you wait!"
Li Yi turned back to look. Because the monster could not catch up, it roared and wantonly destroyed the surrounding environment to direct its anger elsewhere.
30 seconds had already passed…
Once 30 seconds had passed, it would meet its death!
The Fiery Battlefield Relic seemed to know that it would not be able to hold on for long in its current state. It opened its mouth in anger. A faint golden glow entered the flames in its body and slowly condensed into a ball of light.
This was a move that it had used before!
Sensing the abnormality of the monster behind him, Li Yi's face was expressionless. He was not worried at all as he ran further away.
Such a monotonous skill that could not be locked on was completely harmless to Li Yi.
In the next moment, a scorching wave of light shot out from the mouth of the Fiery Battlefield Relic,
A powerful, scorching energy streaked across the battlefield. The equipment on the battlefield that had been eroded by the passage of time until they were beyond recognition instantly turned into pools of thick muck.
Feeling the terrifying aura behind him, Li Yi felt disdain in his heart. He took a wrong step and quickly changed his direction, easily dodging the oncoming attacks.
At the same time, a cold mechanical voice rang out.
[System Notification: The Divine Blood from the Fiery Battlefield Relic has been depleted, it is now entering a weakened state, all attributes reduced by 20%!]
Receiving this notification, Li Yi stopped in his tracks. He turned around and looked. The monster seemed to have been paralyzed as it fell to the ground. The faint golden halo that was originally emitting from its body had now dissipated completely.
Li Yi looked at its interface. Its attributes had returned back to what it was, moreover, all of its attributes had been reduced by 20%. Even the HP that it had recovered when it had activated its Divine Blood had also returned to 1.
"Damn you. After chasing me for so long, it's finally my turn."
Li Yi smiled coldly. After being chased by this monster for so long, even he himself had some pent-up anger to be expressed.
He took out his magic weapon, Deaths Descent with his right hand. He stomped his feet fiercely and ran towards his opponent.
In a short time, he arrived in front of the Fiery Battlefield Relic and swung Deaths Descent down!
"-1! Critical Hit!"
As the damage value appeared on the monster's head, it seemed as though the HP bar was bottomless.
The eyes of his opponent turned completely gray, and there was no longer any sign of life on its body.
Following that, the Fiery Battlefield Relic, like most monsters, turned into nothing and disappeared. A few silver coins, a long sword, and a shimmering golden sheepskin scroll fell to the ground.
[System Notification: You have successfully killed a level 14 Fiery Battlefield Remnant (normal). Obtained 6,000 EXP.]
[Talent Trigger: Obtained 600 HP, 6 HP Recovery/second.]
"Huh? This drop rate seems to be a little higher than the normal monsters outside."
Li Yi walked up and picked up the items on the ground.
"And the EXP is about 1.5 times higher than the scorpion outside.
"In fact, the amount of HP taken was almost on par with the Yin Scorpion King."
Li Yi was a little curious about this discovery and immediately began to wonder. After a moment, he had a certain hypothesis.
Li Yi then spoke out loud, "Could it be that because of the blessing of the Divine Blood, the monster had become stronger, so after killing it, the reward reaped will be more?
"If that's the case, it makes sense. Although the attributes of this monster were high, its attack method was clumsy and easy to dodge.
"As long as I can exhaust its HP to the limit and dodge the attack for 30 seconds, I can easily take it down."
After Li Yi said that, he decided that that was the right conclusion to his hypothesis.
He kept the silver coins and long sword into his backpack, leaving only the sheepskin scroll in his hand.
Based on his previous life's experience, this thing was definitely a tool related to the quest.
He opened the sheepskin scroll in his hand, but there was nothing written on it.
"Hmm? Another hidden mechanism?"
Li Yi frowned, but before he could make a move, golden spots of light appeared on the sheepskin scroll.
In the pitch-black night sky, the stars twinkled, and rays of starlight gathered on the sheepskin scroll.
Under Li Yi's vision, lines of words began to appear on the sheepskin scroll.
Following that, images began to appear in his mind…
In the endless galaxy, two people with blurry faces and tall figures were confronting each other.
Their bodies were emitting a terrifying aura that shook the void around them. It was as if they could not bear the burden of everything anymore.
"God of War, you are not qualified to inherit the position of a true God."
The God on the left said calmly. Obviously, he did not have any high praises for the god before him.
Hearing his voice, the soldiers under the galaxy that were emitting a murderous aura raised their arms and shouted.
"Star God, it's not up to you."
The God on the right, who was known as the God of War, shook his head indifferently.
Then, the two blurry figures collided in the blink of an eye!
For a moment, the entire galaxy trembled. The overwhelming pressure of both the gods forced the believers of the Star God to bend their knees and kneel on the ground.
The pressure of the gods spread out in all directions. The two gods fought in the galaxy, and the overflowing divine power fell to the astral world.
Rumble!!!
Countless stars turned into dust, and the entire astral world was destroyed by the overflowing divine power.
The two gods collided again and again. The galaxy within a million miles shattered, and the mighty divine power of the two gods spread across the galaxy.
After another collision, two rings of light appeared behind the two gods. The vast divine power looked to be like a brilliant sun, that illuminated the dark galaxy as if it was daytime.
The two gods fought nonstop, and no one knew how much time had passed.
With a sudden boom!
The two gods separated, and the divine power that filled the sky began to gradually dissipate.
A huge figure fell from the galaxy, and a long spear pierced through one of the god's chests. Divine Blood spilled into the galaxy, and the terrifying divine power shattered the surrounding void..
Chapter 60: God Corpse, Third Round of the War God
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The scene ended there, and the sheepskin scroll in his hand turned into specks of fluorescent light and dissipated.
"Is this the Battle of the Gods…?"
Li Yi was shocked beyond words. Although he could not see their figures clearly, their exchange of blows was enough to obliterate the void. The aura of the galaxy was enough to kill him countless times were he to be there!
After a moment, Li Yi took a deep breath and suppressed the emotions in his heart. Then, he continued to move forward in the original direction.
After all, for the current him, encountering gods would still be a faraway problem. He could only look at the present and seize every opportunity right now to become stronger.
In the future, he would protect everything that he wanted to protect.
Li Yi held the magic weapon in his hand and walked onwards. Not long after, a familiar figure appeared in front of him.
"Another Fiery Battlefield Remnant. It seems that the direction I'm walking towards to is correct."
For Divine Revelation's special mission hidden maps, as long as one encounters a monster on the way, it proves that the direction one is walking towards is correct.
"I should use the previous method to kill it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yi rushed towards the Fiery Battlefield Remnant. The magic weapon in his hand was surrounded by a black-golden aura.
"Critical Strike!"
"-22,590!"
The black-gold gorgeous sword aura slashed onto the Fiery Battlefield Remnant, and it immediately caused it to roar towards the sky.
It was somewhat stiff as it twisted its head, wanting to see who had injured it!
Immediately after, it saw a human figure that was as small as an ant. That human figure rushed towards it quickly, not waiting for it to regain back its senses.
Li Yi carried himself with killing intent and arrived in front of it.
"Raging Blood Roar!"
"-17,132!"
A circle of blood aura burst out from Li Yi's body, and the attack value rose to a high amount. The monster shook its head, and under the influence of the Raging Blood Roar, it suddenly fell to the ground, destroying everything that lay beneath it.
Li Yi flipped his wrist, and the magic weapon created a wind-breaking sound. It aimed at the vital points of the Fiery Battlefield Remnants, and immediately unleashed a combo of Heavy Strikes.
"2,180! (Weak Point Damage!"
"3,310! (Weak Point Damage!"
"3,421! (Weak Point Damage!"
After doing all this, Li Yi looked at the health bar of his opponent.
"Just a little bit more."
"Charge!"
"-11,364! (Weak Point Damage!"
The blade of Deaths Descent dropped heavily onto the body of his opponent. Just like before, its health bar was stuck on its last HP.
Activating its skill, a faint golden light appeared on its surface. The next moment, the system's notification sounded once again.
Without any hesitation, Li Yi placed Deaths Descent properly and ran away without turning back.
An angry roar came from behind him. The once Fiery Battlefield Remnant was now a Fiery Battlefield Relic after consuming Divine Blood, it was covered in faint golden light and chased after Li Yi clumsily.
Unfortunately, its speed was too slow. Even after activating Divine Blood, it still could not catch up to Li Yi.
30 seconds later, the Fiery Battlefield Relic fell to the ground weakly. Seeing this, Li Yi turned around and raised his hand. He used his Horizontal Sword Slah to end the monster!
The black-gold sword aura crossed over ten meters and instantly struck his opponent.
"-1!Critical Hit!"
[System Notification: You have successfully killed a level 14 Fiery Battlefield Remnant (normal). Obtained 6,000 EXP.]
[Talent Trigger: Obtained 600 HP, 6 HP Recovery/second]
As the system's voice rang out, the Fiery Battlefield Remnant that had used up all of the Divine Blood turned into specks of light and disappeared.
A few silver coins and two pieces of equipment dropped to the ground. Li Yi went forward to put them into his backpack and continued to move forward.
…
Two days later, along the way, Li Yi encountered many Fiery Battlefield Remnants.
He followed the same method and used his skills to lower the HP of his opponents first. After his opponents consumed the Divine Blood, he would quickly flee.
30 seconds later, he would come back and kill them.
After a long time, Li Yi stopped.
"Why am I not at the end yet?"
Li Yi took out a bottle from his backpack and drank it.
He had been walking along this path for two whole days. He had killed countless monsters, and his level had even increased by one level!
However, he still could not see the end of this path.
This not only made him doubt himself, but it had also question himself whether he had taken the wrong path.
"Forget it, let's just try walking for a bit more."
Li Yi shook his head, shaking off the messy thoughts in his mind, and continued on. After walking for a long distance, the scene ahead changed.
The battlefield equipment that was strewn all over the ground had disappeared at some point in time. Thick clouds rose before his eyes and within the clouds, one after another, the stars bloomed with their own light.
"I'm heading in the right direction."
These strange appearances did not cause Li Yi to panic. On the contrary, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
This proved that he was walking on the right path!
"Wait… but how should I proceed from here?"
Li Yi asked himself out loud as if someone was listening.
The surroundings were covered in a white mist. Other than white, there was more white! It was impossible to differentiate the direction he was supposed to go towards.
Right about when he felt a headache coming on, a token jumped out of his backpack uncontrollably and flew into his free left hand.
Li Yi looked at the token in his hand in shock.
That token was the God Severing Token that had automatically flown back into his backpack after opening the spatial door!
The flame symbol on the token lit up and turned into a bright red spark that hovered in front of Li Yi.
Following that, the spark flew into the distance. Seeing this, Li Yi hurried to catch up to the token.
Li Yi followed the token as the fog in front of him became fainter and fainter.
The white gradually faded, and the pitch-black night sky appeared once again. The bright stars illuminated the land.
Everything looked so calm until…
Li Yi halted in his tracks and spoke, "What's this?!"
Li Yi narrowed his eyes and put away the token.
In his field of vision, a huge corpse lay quietly on the ground. He could see a long spear that was pierced through his chest that nailed him to death.
Wisps of golden blood flowed out of his chest and slowly flowed down his body to the ground.
Even though he was already dead, his body still emitted a suffocating pressure.
Cold sweat dripped from Li Yi's forehead. The moment he saw the corpse, an invisible pressure was exerted on his body, making him feel as if his body weighed a thousand pounds!
[System Notification: You have entered the range of the Divine Might Domain, your attributes have been reduced by 1%!]
Seeing the system notification, Li Yi trembled in his spot.
According to what he knew in his previous life, Li Yi recalled a rumor. After a death of a god, an invisible domain would appear around their corpse.
If a mortal approached it, they would be greatly suppressed.
This suppressive force would change with the distance. To put it simply, the closer one was to the god's corpse, the more weakened one would feel.
"It seems that this was the god who fell after the Battle of the Gods. From what I know now, this one seems to be called 'Star God'."
Li Yi looked at the god's corpse and analyzed it calmly.
Although he was shocked when he first saw the god's corpse, he still had memories of his previous life and had seen many storms, so he was not shocked for too long.
"However, the pressure of this god's corpse is much stronger than those gods in my previous life.
"It seems that the information about the false gods fighting us is probably true."
Sensing the aura of the god's corpse, Li Yi's expression became slightly solemn. A sense of imminent danger surged in his heart.
However, before he could think any further, a cold and familiar voice sounded.
[System Notification: The Trial to Awaken the War God's Strength — second round, has been completed. The Trial to Awaken the War God's Strength — third round, has been unlocked. Please obtain the God-slaying Spear left behind by the God of War on the corpse.]
"God-slaying Spear?"
Noticing the words in the system notification, his gaze landed on the huge spear that had pierced through the god's corpse in confusion..
Chapter 61: God Corpse Guards, Over 100,000 HP!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The long spear was made of an unknown material. It was incomparably huge, and there were many lines carved on its end.
"You must be joking…"
The corner of Li Yi's mouth twitched.
According to the mission's update, he had to obtain that spear.
The very spear that had pierced through the god's body in the vision!
No matter how he looked at the size of that thing, it should not be something that he could pick up that easily, right?
This thought was quickly dispelled by Li Yi as soon as it came out. He frowned as he looked at the long spear that could almost reach the sky. He said, "That's not right. Since the quest says so, there must be a way to solve it."
"It's impossible for Divine Revelation to arrange a quest that can not be completed."
Although Divine Revelation was controlled by the gods, it also had its own set of rules. In the game world, it was impossible for the game to assign tasks that could not be completed. As long as it was a task that was released, one would definitely be able to figure out was something that could complete it.
Li Yi fell into deep thought to solve the puzzle. After a moment, an idea flashed through his mind. He took out the token that he had kept earlier from his backpack.
The moment the token appeared, it shook like a wild horse that was out of control, and it constantly trembled in Li Yi's hand.
The flame symbol on the God Severing Token materialized and floated in front of Li Yi. Then, the God-slaying Spear on the god corpse in the distance trembled slightly, and then a buzzing sound could be heard.
Suddenly, a dazzling golden light appeared on its surface.
Li Yi was overjoyed when he saw this.
"Well, I suppose it's reassuring to know that they won't give out missions that can't be completed."
When the mist appeared, it was the God Severing Token that had shown him the way. At this stage of the mission to obtain the God-slaying Spear, as expected, he still had to rely on it to create a path to completion!
The God Severing Token flew in mid-air, leading the way as if it was opening a path. Then, it slowly floated toward the god's corpse.
Seeing this, Li Yi immediately understood that this was the guidance of the mission. He followed the token without the slightest hesitation.
However, with every step he took, he felt as if he had fallen into a deep quagmire. Every time he lifted his foot, he could feel a huge pressure pressing down on him.
"Is this a true god's power? He has been dead for so long, yet the godly aura he left behind is still so strong. If he was at his peak, how terrifying would that be to witness…"
Li Yi sighed as he walked forward with great difficulty. As Li Yi got closer and closer to the god's corpse, his attributes were being suppressed more and more. The system notification sounded.
[System Notification: Warning! Attributes are now reduced by 10%!]
"That was too quick!"
Li Yi was slightly shocked when he heard the system's voice. He looked at the distance between him and the god's corpse and knew that he still had a long way to go.
The God Severing Token swayed in the air for a bit and then it sped up.
Li Yi gritted his teeth. He withstood the Divine Might and forcefully increased his speed to keep up with the God Severing Token that was swiftly moving.
A moment later, the God Severing Token stopped in mid-air.
Under Li Yi's puzzled gaze, it slowly descended and returned to his hand.
"Is this where the mission would start?"
Seeing this, Li Yi made a judgment based on his memories from his previous life.
As soon as he finished speaking, a white mist rose from nowhere. Then, everything around him turned into pure white mist.
Dong! Dong!
The ground shook and a huge figure slowly walked out from the white mist in front of him.
"Tsk tsk."
Looking at the figure that was roughly six meters tall, Li Yi pulled out Deaths Des
Descent. Black and golden aura surrounded his body and he was ready to attack!
The moment the huge figure walked out from the mist, Li Yi could clearly see the appearance of the figure.
It was a huge mechanical puppet.
It did not have a head. Instead, it had a crystal ball that shone dark orange. Li Yi did not know what material its body was made of. Every part of its body was constructed in the shape of a human, however, these parts of its body seemed to be connected to each other as if they were floating. It looked extremely unstable.
[Level 16 God Corpse Guard (normal)]
[Vitality: 70,000]
[Physical Attack: 1,400]
[Physical Defense: 1,100]
[Magic Defense: 1,000]
[Skills: ???]
[Divine Blood: 4 points]
"Woah, it's another monster I've never seen before."
Li Yi looked at the God Corpse Guard and checked its attributes. After taking a quick look, his gaze immediately jumped to the Divine Blood.
"Four points of Divine Blood. Compared to the Fiery Battlefield Relics, these monsters have double the amount. I wonder if they would have special features too."
As Li Yi observed his opponent, the black gold aura on his weapon suddenly shook.
"Critical Strike!"
"-18,590!"
The golden black aura spread out and crossed a few meters, ruthlessly slashing at the God Corpse Guard's body. Immediately, a string of numbers appeared on its top, and one could see that its health bar had decreased by a large amount.
After receiving the attack, the God Corpse Guard turned its body stiffly, and the dark orange crystal ball instantly shone brightly.
Li Yi did not pay any attention to it and continued to attack.
"Charge!"
"-21,190! Critical Hit!"
Li Yi slashed at the God Corpse Guard continuously, and was then followed by his skill — Raging Blood Roar!
"-21,230! Critical Hit!"
The God Corpse Guard received the attack from Li Yi. The next thing he knew, the electric current on its body burst out with a sizzling sound. It was as though his opponent was going to self-destruct at the next moment.
[System Notification: The God Corpse Guard has activated Divine Blood. Divine Wrath is about to be activated. All attributes will be increased by three times. Lasts for 60 seconds! After 60 seconds, your enemy will be reduced to a weakened state. All attributes will be reduced by 15%!]
"60 seconds?!"
Li Yi was slightly shocked. Then, he saw the God Corpse Guard half-squatting down. Its mechanical arms were placed behind its back and it was lying on the ground. There were many gates opening on every part of its body, and a sharp object was revealed inside each gate.
Li Yi's pupils contracted. He clearly saw the items in the gates. Each of them was a missile!
What a joke!
He was not high level enough to encounter monsters that had missiles on their body!!
Without any hesitation, Li Yi turned around and ran for his life. At his current level, he did not have the confidence to fight head-on.
Li Yi's running speed was much slower than before due to the weakening state of his attributes.
As he ran, red lines were directed onto his body. Li Yi had a feeling that he was being locked on by his opponent.
For each opening on the God Corpse Guard, more than ten missiles were being fired. Unfortunately, all these missiles were being shot towards Li Yi.
"I can't dodge all of them."
The moment the missiles were fired, Li Yi compared their speed to his current movement speed.
Li Yi gritted his teeth and stared at the traces of the missiles. He held Deaths Descent in his right hand and raised the Thunder Square Shield in his left hand.
He had to make a prediction. Only by making a prediction could he avoid most of the missiles. He believed that with the Thunder Square Shield and his own HP, he could withstand the aftershocks of the missiles.
"It's coming."
Li Yi focused his eyes on the oncoming attack. He rushed out abruptly, and more than ten missiles slashed across his head.
There was a loud explosion behind him, and the scorching high tem temperature shook.
"-1912!"
"-2,321!"
"-2,341!"
"…"
A series of damage values appeared, and the Thunder Square Shield's value was instantly depleted.
Li Yi's HP had even dropped by around 10,000 points.
It was just as he had expected, with the bonus from the Thunder Square Shield, even if its attributes were weakened, thankfully it could still withstand it!
On the other side, after the God Corpse Guard had finished firing the missile, it fell to the ground, and traces of electric current emerged from its body.
"Is Divine Blood used to sustain Divine Wrath?"
Li Yi looked at the motionless God Corpse Guard and could not help but wonder out loud. Immediately after, he used his skill Critical Strike, and the golden black sword aura slashed at the God Corpse Guard.
"-21,031! Critical Hit"
The damage value appeared, and the God Corpse Guard turned into specks of light and dissipated.
[System Notification: You have killed a level 16 God Corpse Guard (normal). Obtained 10,000 EXP.]
[Talent Trigger: Obtained 700 HP, 7 HP Recovery/second.]
After killing the God Corpse Guard, the mist dissipated and the God Severing Token reappeared, leading the way as before.
Li Yi followed the God Severing Token. Not long after, the mist started to rise again and another God Corpse Guard appeared.
…
One day later.
Li Yi followed the God Severing Token and looked at the God Corpse Guard that was still 100 meters away from him. He took out a Mana Potion from his backpack and drank it.
Killing monsters along the way had increased his level once again.
Not only that, his HP had also increased tremendously.
At this moment, he had already broken through to 10,000 HP!
This was a height that ordinary players could only enter after completing the third transition!
Chapter 62: Above the God Corpse, Diamond Treasure Chest appeared!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li Yi continued to move forward whilst dragging his feet.
Beads of sweat dripped onto the ground.
"There's still twenty meters left…"
Li Yi stopped and looked at the floating token. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and was exasperated. He needed to rest for a while.
The pressure from the Divine Might was too great to handle. All the bones in Li Yi's body creaked from the pressure. If it were not for his tenacity, he really would not have made it this far.
After resting for a while, Li Yi continued to advance in his pursuit. Right as he took a step forward, a mechanical voice sounded.
[System Notification: You have entered the inner area of Divine Might's Domain. Your attributes have been reduced by 30%!]
When Li Yi heard this notification, he could not help but frown. It has been long gone since he stopped caring about this.
This was because his current main source of damage was based on his HP value.
Even though his attributes were all weakened, his HP remained the same.
Li Yi walked for a while longer, and the familiar white mist appeared again. The token hovered in front of him, just like before.
Seeing this, he sighed and put the token back. Then, the ground shook, and a tall mechanical puppet appeared with heavy steps.
Li Yi pulled out Deaths Descent with his right hand and skillfully used Charge!
"-28,959! Critical Hit!"
A string of eye-catching numbers appeared. The crystal ball on the top of the God Corpse Guard burst with orange light as it swung its heavy mechanical arm down furiously.
Li Yi was already prepared for this. He quickly dodged to the side with his feet.
Boom!
The mechanical arm smashed onto the ground, sending countless dust and stone fragments flying.
Li Yi did not care and raised his hand to perform another set of attacks.
"-32,032!"
The golden black aura ruthlessly slashed onto the God Corpse Guard's body. The God Corpse Guard's health bar rapidly dropped and dropped onto the ground. Electric currents were flowing now out from his body.
The system notification rang. The God Corpse Guard seems to be rebooting. With a clinking sound, it stood up. The light from the crystal ball became more and more intense.
Li Yi raised his Thunder Square Shield to defend himself from what was coming next. In the next moment, the red line shone on his body, and missiles shot out once again.
Li Yi's expression was calm, and he took the opportunity to dodge to the side.
"-8,000!"
"-3,000!"
"…"
The aftershock had hit Li Yi, which caused him to lose about 20,000 HP.
"This attribute has been weakened too much."
Li Yi looked at his own health bar and could not help but become worried.
30 seconds later.
Li Yi used Raging Blood Roar.
"-29,321!"
[System Notification: You have killed a level 16 God Corpse Guard (normal). Obtained 10,000 EXP.]
[Talent Trigger: Obtained 700 HP, 7 HP Recovery/second.]
Li Yi picked up the items, and then took the token to guide the way once again. With that, he and the token continued to move forward.
Although he was very close to the god's corpse now, he still wanted the token to guide him. As a person who had experienced it before, Li Yi knew that if he did not follow the guide of the mission, there was a high chance that he would miss some crucial information or tools along the way.
Following what the mission sent was especially fatal in a chain mission.
If one were to take one wrong step, all the previous efforts would be in vain, and it would be required to start all over again.
After walking for a long time with great difficulty, Li Yi was drenched in sweat. He gritted his teeth and walked forward. Every step he took left a shallow footprint on the ground.
"Five meters…"
"Three meters…"
"We're finally here!"
Li Yi panted as he looked at the God-slaying Spear on the gigantic corpse. After such a long time, he
he finally arrived at the god's corpse.
[System Notification: You have entered the inner area of the Divine Might Domain. Your attributes have been reduced by 50%!]
The system notification sounded out suddenly.
After it finished, Li Yi immediately felt an even stronger pressure pressing down on his body.
In an instant, his body felt like the weight of the world was on him.
"F*ck…"
This suppressive force made Li Yi want to curse. However, things were not over yet. While he struggled, the token stopped decided to stop moving.
Li Yi noticed this and the corner of his mouth twitched.
It felt as though the storm had not calmed down yet.
After a while, the token only floated quietly. However, there was no fog rising around it.
"Hmm? There are no monsters here?"
Li Yi raised his eyebrows in puzzlement. Right as he said this, a roar came from the sky.
A five-meter-tall figure slowly descended down the sky.
The crystal ball on the top was glowing with orange light. Two long blades that replaced the mechanical arms. It had no legs, and there was an intense air flow that was shooting out from its lower body.
It relied on the intense air flow to fly in the air and looked down at Li Yi.
"Damn, I knew it!"
Li Yi complained and quickly checked the monster's interface.

[Divine Blood: 6 points]
"Six points?!"
Li Yi was shocked, but he did not have the luxury to think about anything else because the monster in front of him had begun its attack.
The God Corpse Protector's dual blades shone with a cold light as it waved them and charged forward.
Li Yi felt the power of the attack, and his expression turned slightly solemn. The golden black sword aura that emitted from Deaths Descent had now coiled around him.
"Critical Strike!"
The sword aura slashed at the crystal ball on the top of the God Corpse Protector.
The God Corpse Protector immediately stopped its attack and raised two giant blades to protect itself.
"-23,082!"
"It can actually block my attacks…"
Li Yi secretly felt that things were not going in the direction that he wished for. This God Corpse Protector in front of him was obviously much smarter than the less smart God Corpse Guard from before.
However, he did not stop his attack.
"Charge!"
Li Yi used the power of his skill to resist the suppression of the Divine Might. He suddenly jumped into the air and slashed down at the crystal ball on top of the God Corpse Protector!
"23,481! Critical Hit!"
The God Corpse Protector did not have time to block Li Yi's attack and suffered a heavy blow. The crystal ball flashed with orange light as it waved its blade, it now looked at Li Yi with killing intent.
However, at this moment, a golden black aura circulated around Li Yi's body.
"Raging Blood Roar!"
"-31,238! Critical Hit!"
The God Corpse Protector's movements immediately slowed down, and then with a bang, it fell to the ground, with electric currents flowing all over its body!
[System notification: The God Corpse Protector has activated Divine Blood, and is about to activate Divine Wrath. All attributes will increase threefold, this lasts for 90 seconds! After 90 seconds, the God Corpse Protector will enter a weakened state due to exhaustion.]
"Run!"
Li Yi ran to grab the token that was floating not too far away from him and turned around to run.
However, when he turned around, he found that the path he walked through now have been filled with fog.
At this time, the token in his hand glowed with a fiery red light. The light gathered on the token and formed an arrow, pointing straight at the god's corpse.
Li Yi understood and without saying anything, he took advantage of the God Corpse Protector's anger to dodge the attacks left and right. His footsteps were heavy, but he looked very nimble as he climbed onto the god's corpse.
This was a special type of footwork that he had learned in his previous life, and it was the perfect time for him to use it now.
When Li Yi climbed up, the God Corpse Protector recovered again. With a whoosh, he flew into the sky and chased after him.
"Damn it."
Li Yi was desperately running on the God Corpse Protector. The God Corpse Protector's seemed to be preparing another attack of missiles!
Li Yi hurriedly raised his Thunder Square Shield to block one strike after another.
"-3,123!"
"-5,231!"
"-4,215!"
"-8,312!"
A moment later, the Thunder Square Shield shattered, and Li Yi's HP immediately dropped by 10,000.
There were still 20 seconds left before the Divine Wrath ended!
One man, one monster, one chasing after the other, and time could not move any quicker than the former wished for.
20 seconds later!
The God Corpse Protector landed on the god's corpse, and the orange light on its crystal head dimmed.
[System Notification: The God Corpse Protector's Divine Wrath has been depleted, it shall now enter a weakened state, all attributes reduced by 20%!]
"It's my turn!"
Li Yi's eyes were filled with rage. The golden black aura of Deaths Descent accumulated, and he unleashed a Critical Strike.
"-33,133! Critical Hit!"
The brutal sword aura that was filled with killing intent slashed onto the God Corpse Protector's body. Its HP bar was instantly emptied, and it turned into specks of light and before dissipating.
[System Notification: You have killed a level 17 God Corpse Protector (normal). Obtained 50,000 EXP.]
[Talent Trigger: Obtained 790 HP, 7.9 HP Recovery/second.]
"Woah…"
Li Yi's body glowed. The massive amount of experience points allowed him to level up once again.
He panted heavily and took a moment to gather himself back up. When he walked to the spot where the monster disappeared, he found that there was nothing else other than silver coins. Li Yi did not care about this. He kept the silver coins and took out the token once again.
The God Severing Token then flew forward quickly!
Li Yi quickly followed behind it. Very soon, he came under the God-slaying Spear's handle. The huge shadow blocked the light.
However, he did not pay attention to anything else…
In fact, there was a gorgeous treasure chest in front of him.
The treasure chest was emitting a light blue luster.
" A Diamond Treasure Chest…"
Li Yi's pupils contracted slightly. A gust of cold air rushed to the top of his head. In an instant, all the pores on his body had goosebumps, and cold sweat soaked his clothes.
In Divine Revelation, there would always be an extremely terrifying Boss near Diamond Treasured Chests!
Li Yi did not even think about opening the treasure chest secretly. This was because the moment he arrive at this area, the Boss had already locked on to him!
The next moment, a furious loud roar rang throughout the area, causing the night sky to tremble!
Chapter 63: God Corpse Eye Guardian, The Feeling!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The sharpness of the roar pierced through his eardrums. Following that, a violent hurricane came out of nowhere, causing Li Yi to be unable to help but squint his eyes. The cloak hanging on his body even fluttered widely from the gush of wind!
High in the sky, a tightly shut-eye slowly opened. It was a golden eye that looked to be three meters long.
It seemed like a god that was glaring at Li Yi below. Around it, there were curved black metal spheres that levitated around.
The intense pressure of the storm made the spheres swirl around.
Li Yi's expression had changed to one of fear. He looked at the huge eye and wondered how it could even make such a sharp sound.
Then, he looked at the attributes of the monster.

[Magic attack: 2,500]

Hiss…
Li Yi looked at the attributes and held in his breath. He was already thinking about whether he should run away.
The attributes of this Boss — the God Corpse Eye Guardian — were too high. With his current abilities, he would not be able to defeat it at all.
However, when his gaze swept past the God-slaying Spear and the gorgeous Diamond Treasure Chest not far away, he hesitated for a moment.
He knew very well how precious a Diamond Treasure Chest was.
In his previous life's memories, the number of Diamond Treasure Chests was extremely few. Now that he had encountered one, Li Yi did not want to give up on it this quickly. Moreover, there was also the most part of the important chain mission. In the process of completing the mission, he had already obtained many benefits, rising several levels consecutively.
One could imagine that once the mission was completed, the rewards he reaped would definitely be massive.
After weighing the pros and cons, Li Yi looked at the huge eye in the sky and decided to take a huge gamble!
With this thought in mind, Li Yi put away the God Severing Token. Then, he took out a Health Potion and a Mana Potion to consume.
After replenishing his condition, he gripped Deaths Descent on his hand. Then, a golden black aura flowed out and surrounded Li Yi.
"Critical Strike!"
The golden black aura broke through the hurricane and shot into the sky. It was unstoppable!
Facing this powerful attack, the God Corpse Eye Guardian was unmoved. It just floated quietly in the air, unfazed.
It was only when the sword aura approached that the pitch-black metal around its body trembled slightly and moved in front of it to block it.
"-6,923!"
A small string of numbers appeared and hat cause Li Yi's expression to sour.
A critical hit was an attack based on the difference in HP.
The difference in HP between the Boss and him was not that great, so the damage dealt by his Critical Strike was limited.
Fortunately, he still had other skills.
Right as he was about to activate his next skill, the God Corpse Eye Guardian glowed with a golden light, and the pitch-black metal shook!
A golden wave that gave off an intense pressure swept towards Li Yi below. Li Yi's eyes narrowed, and he moved his feet, running quickly.
However, after all his attributes were weakened, his speed was not faster than the attack of the God Corpse Eye Guardian.
He had only run a few steps when the golden wave that looked like an invisible blade went straight through the shield of the Thunder Square Shield and struck him hard!
"-31,222!"
Li Yi was sent flying for a few meters. After he stabilized his body, he was shocked when he saw that one-third of his HP was reduced in an instant.
One attack from the Boss had reduced more than 30,000 points of his HP!
That was when it hit Li Yi!
After learning about Li Yi's equipment, his stats were one or two levels higher than most players!
However, even so, he still lost more than 30,000 HP in one hit!
If other normal players were hit by this attack, needless to say, 100% of them would be sent back to the Resurrection Point.
To sum it up, this Boss was not something that any current players could deal with!
"Well, this is exactly expected of a special Boss for a chain mission."
Li Yi twisted his neck and looked at the giant eye that was filled with indifference as it slowly descended. His expression became extremely grave knowing that it would be closer to him now.
On the other hand, the God Corpse Eye Guardian once again glowed with golden light. The pitch-black metal spheres moved slightly, and in the next moment, the sound of wind gushing could be heard.
The pitch-black metal spheres rushed towards Li Yi with strong killing intent!
Li Yi's eyes trembled slightly from the sight. Within a blink of an eye, the metal sphere had arrived in front of him.
Li Yi raised the Lightning Square Shield, then moved his feet and quickly dodged to the side.
Ding!!!
The metal sphere brushed past the Lightning Square Shield, and dazzling sparks flew in all directions. Li Yi even flew backward from the impact.
"-14,031! Block!"
After stabilizing his body, Li Yi's muscles tensed up. An intense sense of danger surged in his heart.
The pitch-black metal sphere of the God Corpse Eye Guardian stirred up waves of wind. It changed its direction and attacked again!
Li Yi's eyes turned sharp and he twisted his body with great difficulty to avoid the oncoming attacks. Fortunately, the pitch-black spheres narrowly brushed past his body.
Due to the huge difference in the attributes, Li Yi was now caught in a tough battle.
Were he to be a slight bit careless, he would die instantly under the attack of the Boss.
The God Corpse Eye Guardian launched yet another relentless attack. The golden hurricanes turned into deadly blades that carried a surging murderous aura as they slashed towards Li Yi!
Li Yi focused his attention and stared at the approaching golden wind blades.
With an extremely clever move, he brushed past the wind blade in an extremely dangerous manner.
Naturally, Li Yi's speed could not be faster than the wind blade. He had used the prediction method once again, calculating the time and location of the attack to dodge to the best location.
However, only relying on this prediction method alone was not enough to defeat the Boss.
"There's no other way, I must fight with all my might."
After dodging the fatal wind blades, Li Yi muttered to himself as he looked at the Boss not far away.
Although it was a little forced, Li Yi had already decided to use a set of techniques.
In his previous life, that set of techniques had been discovered by Li Yi and made public. This set of techniques could increase the user's concentration by several times, strengthening the prediction, evasion, and perception ability.
Moreover, according to the settings of Divine Revelation, after using a skill, there would be a cooldown time.
However, for this technique, after you used a skill, you could block all the skills at the most appropriate time, without any pause!
It was equivalent to being stuck in a game mechanism, then canceling the cooldown time, and seamlessly connecting the skills.
After learning this set of skills, the combat strength of the top experts had undoubtedly increased by several times, this even made a great contribution to the Battle of the Gods.
Since this technique was so powerful, it naturally had its drawbacks.
That was because it consumed too much mental energy. Every time he used it, he would feel as though his head was about to split open. If it was possible for another way, Li Yi really did not want to use this technique.
But at this moment, he had no choice but to make a decision. He took a deep breath, and his heart was pounding in his chest. His gaze became somewhat unfocused, and his dull pupils reflected the figure of the God Corpse Eye Guardian.
Li Yi then muttered to himself in a somewhat stoic manner..
