Chapter 521: Worthy Opponent
Chapter 521: Chapter 521: Worthy Opponent
The fingertip attack seemed like a joke, yet it could unleash an extremely terrifying power.
It dealt true damage that struck the essence, landing on the indestructible dragon scales of Chi Qiu without causing any ripples.
But it was this inconspicuous attack that forcibly obliterated one of the dragon horns on Chi Qiu’s head.
Fortunately, the strongest on Izak Planet had extremely keen combat instincts and detected the attack the moment Lin Yi made his move, or else this flick of a finger would have been enough to make Chi Qiu lose an eye.
In the throes of pain, Chi Qiu’s dragon claw erupted with extremely terrifying power, striking directly towards Lin Yi’s head.
Even with the blessing of the Eyes of Golden Flame and the assistance of the Tombstone Inscription state, which could foresee enemy actions, Lin Yi still couldn’t react in time to dodge and was struck directly.
Ding!
With a crisp explosion ringing out, a powerful wave instantly spread from the Deep Sea Tower, overturning everything within the ruins’ barrier, including the startled Blue Star pioneers.
Originally, the pioneers were cleaning up the battlefield.
The life-and-death battle with the Izak invaders had caused damage to the Blue Star pioneers.
Even with the assistance of the undead creatures summoned by Lin You, casualties could not be avoided.
The sudden burst of waves made everyone involuntarily stop their actions and stare at the direction of the Deep Sea Tower.
Lin Yi bypassed the front battlefield and headed towards that tower.
At first, many petty professionals thought Lin Yi was leaving the problem to them and entering the tower early to enjoy resources.
But now it seemed that it was no resource enjoyment, it was clearly a fight to the death.
What the hell was happening inside?
What were those terrifying noises erupting one after another inside the tower?
Could Lin Yi return safely? Should the professionals go in to take a look, or wait a bit longer?
Many conscientious professionals guessed that Lin Yi might have run into trouble inside the tower and planned to step in to help.
But before they could take a few steps, they were stopped by Lin You and the undead creatures she had summoned.
“What’s going on with you, young lady? Isn’t Lin Yi your master? Not helping your master when in trouble is one thing, but not letting us help?”
“Yeah, we’re not the kind to shrink from death. Letting Lin Yi charge ahead alone, how could we bear that?”
“Make way, not only are the Xia War Gods formidable, but we’re also not pushovers.”
Just as Lin You was about to explain, Stark stood in between them.
Looking at the indignant expressions of the several War Gods in front of him, who only mastered ordinary Power of Law, Stark sighed and said something hurtful.
“Guys, there are things I didn’t want to say, but if you enter, it will only add trouble for Lin Yi.”
Even among War Gods, there are differences.
The intensity of the Law somewhat determines the upper limit of a War God.
War Gods carrying the supreme Law can’t even last a few rounds in front of Lin Yi.
Could the opponent who caused such a huge commotion inside the Deep Sea Tower with Lin Yi be an ordinary character?
If these overly confident War Gods went in, they’d probably become corpses before they could be of any use.
Lin You didn’t want to engage in quarrels.
What she could do now was to hide in the Undead Space, and leap out when Lin Yi needed help, securing a critical strike.
Chi Qiu’s claw struck Lin Yi’s head, slamming him hard into the ground, then swiftly dashed forward to bite at Lin Yi, with a seamless combo and surprisingly fast attack frequency.
However, the more Chi Qiu attacked, the more puzzled he became internally.
As Izak Planet’s strongest, his intelligence was nothing to scoff at.
He could see that, constitutionally, Izak Planet’s creatures were much stronger than Blue Star’s humans.
No matter how his storm-like attacks hit home, Lin Yi, emitting a faint golden glow, remained completely unharmed.
As Lin Yi recovered, the next round of Forbidden Curse struck again.
Relying on the cover of the Chaos Law, Chi Qiu repeatedly neutralized Lin Yi’s attacks.
Lin Yi also, by the power of the Reincarnation Law and his special passive skill [Flash], dodged Chi Qiu’s various killing moves.
With supremely high combat intelligence, Lin Yi roughly understood Chi Qiu’s abilities.
The Dragon Race, regardless of level, possessed exclusive special abilities.
At the Ancestral Dragon level, Chi Qiu had abilities unimaginable to ordinary Dragon Race.
Chi Qiu’s special ability was somewhat similar to Lin Yi’s survival skill [Flash].
[Flash] provided 100% dodge and a brief invincibility effect.
Chi Qiu’s skill was rebirth.
Lin Yi, utilizing the passive effects of Chaos at the Beginning, brought various powerful competitions to Ancient Forbidden Curse level effects.
Even a body as strong as the Ancestral Dragon level couldn’t completely withstand that terrifying damage.
Combined with the amplification effects brought by the Infinite Ball, Chi Qiu decidedly suffered a disadvantage in skill combat.
But with the endless revivals and the brief law-breaking effect after resurrection, Chi Qiu could turn the slight disadvantage around.
After another confrontation, the two pulled apart, and simultaneously paused their actions in a tacit understanding.
“Today’s battle ends here.”
Chi Qiu spoke first.
The pride of the Dragon Race was ingrained in their bones.
With the blood of the Ancestral Dragon, Chi Qiu, who ruled an entire planet, didn’t gain any advantage over Lin Yi despite completely overwhelming levels.
Continuing the fight, Chi Qiu might not necessarily lose.
Each rebirth refreshed Chi Qiu’s state and skill cooldowns, equivalent to having an Immortal Fruit.
The pride of the Dragon Race led him to halt this battle.
“You’ve won, within the time limit, no creature from Izak Planet will step foot on Blue Star. You can take this time to enhance your strength as much as possible.”
“The next meeting will be a fight to the death; I won’t call a halt until the very last moment.”
In a brief exchange, the two developed a mutual respect, considering each other a worthy opponent.
The entire battle process saw no underhanded tricks from either side; it was all earnest struggle.
The excavation of the Deep Sea Tower has significant meaning for Blue Star.
For Lin Yi, too.
To completely unlock the Great Saint requires a large number of soul cores.
Lin Yi didn’t bother to be polite, assuming victory in this battle as his own.
“By the way, Chi Qiu, I have something to say to you.”
The struggle is inherent in the uniformity.
For the lower planet spheres, whether Blue Star or Izak, they all hope to become stronger.
That way, they can gain more resources to, in turn, enhance the overall strength of Blue Star.
Survival of the fittest is the natural Law that won’t stop, but if all efforts are merely for the lofty gods, then it’s very necessary to resist.
