“I have to be faster…”

  Li Yi’s forehead was filled with sweat, and the wind and waves of energy rushing behind him were emitting a destructive aura as they rolled over.

  Every time the wind-blades struck his body, the little fluorescent lights on his body would block them out.

  however, these little fluorescent lights were gradually dimming, and Li Yi was still a short distance away from crossing the white light.

  Li Yi forced himself to pick up the pace again. Although his body was struggling, it was still within the range of his endurance.

  Finally, at the last second when the Lost Magic was about to lose its effect, Li Yi rushed out of the white light!

  “Phew…”

  Li Yi panted heavily as his heart pounded. He looked into the distant sky, where the holy golden light surrounded the Boss as the boss released a high-risk skill that swept up within the golden storm.

  Then, he gently rubbed his slightly trembling legs.

  Forcing himself to increase his speed multiple times was now coming back to bite him.

  After resting for a while, Li Yi calculated the time and said, “There’s about 120 seconds until the Boss’s Divine Wrath is dispelled. That’s nearly two minutes, holy cr*p that’s long.”

  As he said this, an idea came to Li Yi’s mind, and he began to estimate the distance between him and the Boss.

  “This distance shouldn’t be a problem.”

  After some calculations, Li Yi took out Deaths Descent from his backpack. Golden black aura surged out like bouts of waves.

  Li Yi’s heart throbbed. The token that was located in the center of his heart trembled slightly and emitted a dazzling golden light.

  “Horizontal Sword Slash!”

  Li Yi roared in anger and waved Deaths Descent in his hand furiosly. The black-gold sword aura soared into the sky. It carried a strong killing intent as it slashed towards the God Corpse Eye Guardian in the sky!

  “-1! Critical Hit!”

  The sword aura pierced through the layers of storms and slashed towards the God Corpse Eye Guardian.

  “This guardian is really…”

  After receiving the damage value, Li Yi could not help but frown. If he could not deal any damage, he could only wait for the Boss to finish casting its skill.

  However, at this moment, the God Corpse Eye Guardian in the sky was once again filled with bloodshot eyes, turned slightly and looked straight at Li Yi who was standing on the god’s corpse.

  Then, it moved!

  It began to move with a high-level skill — Storm!

  The range of the skill began to extend outwards and closed in on Li Yi.

  “It can still move?!”

  Li Yi was shocked. In his previous life’s memories, Bosses with high-risk skills in the early stages could only stand in place and wat not allowed to move.

  After all, high-risk skills had a wide range of coverage and high damage. If the Boss could still move and increase the range, the early stage players would not be able to survive.

  Li Yi did not dare to ponder any further and began to flee.

  The God Corpse Eye Guardian above did not intend on letting him go. It increased its speed and chased after him.

  Sensing the dangerous aura behind him, Li Yi felt his scalp go numb. If he were to be dragged in again, his HP would not be able to hold on for more than a second.

  Fortunately, although the God Corpse Eye Guardian could move and expand the range of the high-risk skills, its speed was very slow.

  The speed it had now was significantly lower as compared to before.

  Time slowly passed as the two parties chased each other.

  A moment later, a notification popped up for Li Yi.

  [System Notification: The God Corpse Eye Guardian’s Divine Blood has been depleted, Divine Wrath’s status has been dispelled, all attributes of the boss have now been reduced by 30%!]

  As the system finished speaking, Li Yi stopped and turned around to look at the sky.

  He saw the God Corpse Eye Guardian in the sky. The holy light that was emitting earlier had dimmed, and its entire eye seemed to be on the verge of collapsing.

  In the next moment, his opponent fell from the sky and landed heavily on the god’s corpse, giving off a loud boom!

  “It’s finally coming down.”

  Li Yi’s gaze showed slight worry. He had been chased by this Boss for so long that his legs were almost giving out.

  However, Deaths Descent flickered with a cold black light, and it was enough to push Li Yi to charge towards the God Corpse Eye Guardian with no hesitation!

  He wanted to kill it as quickly as possible.

  Li Yi charged very quickly, and the surrounding environment in his field of vision felt like a slideshow.

  Not long after, Li Yi arrived in front of the Boss. He took a quick glance, and saw that its HP was very low. His weapon was shrouded in golden black aura, and it was ready to finish off the boss.

  The dragon token in the Boss’s heart was shining brightly with a golden light too. It trembled non-stop knowing that the days of survival were going to be over.

  Following that, wisps of faint golden flames that were filled with a holy aura started to emerge from Li Yi’s palm. The flames then spread to his weapon, he was about to use his skill — Blazing Stab!

  A golden light flashed across Li Yi’s eyes, without a moment more, he swung Deaths Descent onto the God Corpse Eye Guardian.

  “-3,611!”

  “-3,12! Burn Damage!”

  “-1,23! Burn Damage!”

  The golden flames burned the God Corpse Eye Guardian’s entire body, causing it to let out a mournful cry in its weakened state. Its originally bloodshot eyes turned scarlet red as it stared at Li Yi with pure hatred.

  Li Yi did not care about this. He glanced at the God Corpse Eye Guardian’s HP Bar, which was now left with the last bit of HP.

  Without any hesitation, he quickly used his Combo and Heavy Strike to finish of his opponent.

  “433! Critical Hit!”

  “-0! Critical Hit!”

  “-0! Vital Hit!”

  Right about when the monster’s HP was about to reach zero, the God Corpse Eye Guardian suddenly lit up with a blinding white light!

  The system notification then rang out.

  [System Notification: The God Corpse Eye Guardian is on the verge of death. Use a special skill, the Protection of the Dead, to block a fatal blow.]

  [System Notification: The God Corpse Eye Guardian will be using a Boss skill — the Protection of the Stars. Base on its maximum HP, it has obtained back 50% shield protection.]

  “F*ck!”

  Li Yi retreated in anger.

  They had already fought to the end, and yet another issue had appeared.

  Not only would it release an attack once more, but it gained back 50% of its shield!

  Fortunately, although the God Corpse Eye Guardian had a secret skill and an increase in 50% of its shield, it was still weak and unable to move.

  Seeing this, Li Yi wanted to vent out all his anger. The golden black aura that was on Deaths Descent accumulated on his hand and exploded. He swung his sword with all his strength!

  “Critical Strike!”

  “-19,213! Critical Hit!”

  The sword aura landed in front of the God Corpse Eye Guardian and was blocked by the dazzling white light.

  Li Yi kept Deaths Descent in his backpack and it appeared in his hand again.

  “Charge!”

  “-18,773! Critical Hit!”

  Li Yi slashed out with his sword so quickly that it left afterimages behind. In an instant, he hacked away at lowering the shield. The value appeared and in an instant, half of the shield’s HP had been reduced.

  Although it had the shield value, the God Corpse Eye Guardian’s attributes had been reduced by 30% too after using Divine Blood.

  “Raging Blood Roar!”

  “-12,689!”

  Without a pause, Li Yi launched another attack.

  The blinding white light dimmed, and cracks began to spread, webbed lines began to form. Then, with a cracking sound, it broke into pieces, turning into specks of fluorescent light and disappearing into the void.

  At the same time, the God Corpse Eye Guardian’s health bar finally fell to zero.

  “It’s over.”

  Looking at the Boss that was gradually turning into specks of light and disappearing, Li Yi heaved a sigh of relief as though a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders. Immediately after, an intense sense of fatigue surged up, and his head felt as if it had been hit by a heavy blow.

  He rubbed his aching temples, and the system notification sounded.

  [System Notification: Congratulations on your first kill of the yellow-gold Boss — God Corpse Eye Guardian. The first kill would provide a reward of 300,000 EXP, 30 gold coins, and a piece of perfect-quality equipment.]

  [System Notification: You are the first player to kill a yellow-gold Boss. An announcement will be made in the entire server. Do you wish to hide your name?]

  [Talent Trigger: Obtained 980 HP, 9.8 HP Recovery/second]

  Li Yi did not hesitate to choose and chose yes as the option. Immediately, his body lit up with a bright light. He had leveled up once again!

  Li Yi’s level had now reached level 18!

  However, it was not over yet. At the spot where the Boss disappeared, there were several pieces of equipment that were dropped.

  One of the pieces of equipment was emitting a dazzling golden light and Li Yi could not help but pick that item up first.

  Li Yi went forward to pick it up and looked at the attributes.

  [Equipment: Stellar Boots]

  [Rarity: Perfect]

  [Physical Defense: 19]

  [Magic Defense: 12]

  [Movement Speed: +25%]

  [Attribute Enhancement: Agility +23, Critical Strike +5%]

  [Perfect Skill: Starlight’s Blessing — after activation, movement speed will be increased by 30%. The cooldown time would be 30 seconds!]

  [Equipment Condition: Level 10]

  Chapter 66: Diamond Treasure Chest Opened! Divine Skill, Star Destruction!!

  Li Yi held the Stellar Boots and revealed a delighted smile on his face.

  “The attributes for this perfect equipment are not bad, and the skills are also quite practical.”

  Increasing one’s movement speed by 30%, and having the 30 seconds cooldown time was considered short. Therefore, this was a very practical skill for Li Yi at the current stage.

  Whether it was in battle or on adventures, it could be used at any time.

  Li Yi quickly changed into the Stellar Boots and put the other boots he had equipped into his backpack.

  The old equipment that he had changed into was still considered very valuable. He could not just throw it away.

  After doing all this, he picked up the other four pieces of equipment on the ground.

  [Equipment: Star Saber]

  [Rarity: Flawless]

  [Physical Attack: 166]

  [Flawless Attribute: Strength +18]

  [Equipment Condition: Level 10]

  …

  [Equipment: Star Staff]

  [Rarity: Flawless]

  [Magic Attack: 190]

  [Flawless: Intelligence +18, Spirit +20]

  [Equipment Condition: Level 10]

  …

  [Equipment: Star Shield]

  [Rarity: Flawless]

  [HP: 120]

  [Physical Defense: 30]

  [Magic Defense: 30]

  [Equipment Requirements: Level 10]

  …

  [Equipment: Star Cape]

  [Quality: Flawless]

  [Physical Defense: 20]

  [Magic Defense: 17]

  [Flawless Attributes: Agility +9, Spirit +14]

  [Equipment Requirements: Level 10]

  Looking at the attributes of the four pieces of equipment, Li Yi nodded his head in satisfaction.

  “Not bad, I can give the Star Staff to Snow Chaser. I’ll go ask if Clutch King and Snow Chaser would want to use the other pieces of equipment too.”

  Li Yi immediately decided on the ownership of these pieces of equipment.

  He always gave priority to the good items he received for his teammates. Whichever items that they did not want, he planned on throwing it to Little Merchant so that he could sell it all.

  At this stage, these items were very valuable. Putting all the equipment into his backpack, Li Yi’s gaze fell on a specific object.

  To be precise, it was the Diamond Treasure Chest that he had fought tirelessly for.

  Li Yi’s gaze gradually turned into one of greed. After resting for a while to recover his HP and energy, he impatiently walked over to open it.

  He looked at the gorgeous azure-colored treasure chest in front of him and could not help but rub his hands together.

  In his previous life, the number of times he had opened a Diamond Treasure Chest could be counted on one hand.

  Moreover, he knew that he would receive a huge amount of goods coming from such a rare chest.

  “I hope my luck is good today.”

  Li Yi prayed to nothing in particular and reached out to touch the Diamond Treasure Chest. Immediately after, a notification sounded.

  [System Notification: Diamond Treasure Chest opening, 30 seconds countdown commences.]

  …

  After a moment of rest, the countdown ended and the Diamond Treasure Chest started to tremble.

  Then, with a bang, it opened. A dazzling white light flashed, and a book flew out from inside.

  [Item: Star Destruction (divine skill)]

  [Prerequisite: Divine Power 10 points]

  [Prerequisite: Divine Power 3 points]

  [Effect: Causes total HP 50% depletion and physical attack 200% true damage to all living creatures within a 30 x 30 range. Can not be evaded. Target will be restrained for 3 seconds. All attributes of the target will be reduced by 10%. Cooldown time would be 900 seconds.]

  Li Yi was stunned when he read the skill description.

  A moment later, Li Yi still could not help but look at the item in his hand strangely. After he finished reading the skill description again and again, not only was he not excited, he was even a little surprised.

  In his previous life’s memories, he had never seen such a divine skill. This skill required a specific amount of Divine Power points needed to learn and utilize it; which made him really confused.

  “As the name suggests, this divine skill must be related to a God’s power. This Divine Power should be similar to the Divine Blood points shown on the attributes of the monsters I encountered previously.”

  Li Yi touched his chin and analyzed the situation.

  “However, to obtain that so-called Divine Power would be a problem, but…”

  Li Yi raised his head and looked at the God-slaying Spear that reached into the clouds as he pointed his finger to the sky.

  “After completing the mission, I should understand further about how to get it I suppose.”

  Li Yi quickly put this divine skill into his backpack, it was very important to him that he would not misplace it. It was because this skill was very compatible with his talent. As long as he could learn to use it, it could turn into a trump card for him.

  Li Yi took out the God Severing Token from his backpack. As soon as the God Severing Token appeared, it exploded with a burst of intense light. Li Yi could not help but squint his eyes from the sight. Then, the God Severing Token turned into a ball of platinum flames and floated in the air.

  Witnessing this scene, Li Yi turned extremely curious. Under his curious gaze, the platinum flame slowly began to rise.

  At the same time, the God-slaying Spear that was stuck in the god corpse’s chest seemed to have sensed something and began to vibrate.

  The sound of the spear trembling reverberated through the night sky, and the stars in the sky could not help but shiver from that frequency.

  Not only that, even the god’s corpse under Li Yi’s feet began to tremble.

  [System Notification: Warning! Warning! The Divine Might Domain has been activated, attributes reduced by 70%!]

  As the system’s notification sounded, Li Yi’s suddenly felt as though he was being pushed into the ground. The heavy, formless force pressed down on his body, causing him to flush red and sweat profusely.

  The platinum flame slowly made its way to the top. As it rose higher, its brightness became more and more dazzling, and the temperature it emitted became more and more scorching.

  The space around it looked like a pond; throwing a stone in it would cause ripples to occur.

  After a long time, the platinum flame that was the once God Severing Token finally flew to the top. It looked to be like the most dazzling star that illuminated the entire night sky.

  The vibration of the ground intensified, and the God-slaying Spear started to move. Under the guidance of the platinum flame, it was being pulled out of the god’s corpse bit by bit.

  The moment it was pulled out, a lot of golden blood flowed out of the god’s corpse’s chest. Li Yi felt the terrifying Divine Power that was contained in the blood. He forced himself to move away from it before he was consumed by it too. He withstood the heavy pressure and retreated to avoid being contaminated.

  Buzz!

  A buzzing sound echoed in the sky. The God-slaying Spear was successfully pulled out. Golden light filled the entire space of the god’s corpse. The billions of stars in the galaxy exploded like fireworks!

  The God-slaying Spear kept rising into the sky and went straight into the galaxy.

  The platinum flame of theGod Severing Token turned into a dazzling stream of light and merged itself with the God-slaying Spear.

  As the platinum flame merged with the God-slaying Spear, the size of the weapon began to shrink. After an unknown amount of time, Li Yi stood by the god’s corpse and watched this scene in a daze. The God-slaying Spear — which was now the size of a normal long spear — exuded an extremely holy aura, and the platinum light was followed by thousands of galaxies.

  The God-slaying Spear circled around the galaxy as if it was celebrating its reappearance in the world. At this moment, the god’s corpse under Li Yi’s feet began to violently shake.

  The god’s corpse, which was already dead, strangely raised its right hand and pointed at the God-slaying Spear in the galaxy.

  As the god’s corpse pointed towards the weapon, the golden Divine Blood that flowed out of its chest seemed to be guided by something.

  Suddenly, it surged like a tidal wave, creating tsunami after tsunami!

  Under Li Yi’s stunned gaze, the golden tsunami shattered the void, it was like a poisonous snake that was about to devour someone. It crossed space, time, and appeared above the illuminating galaxy.

  As the golden Divine Blood left, the god’s corpse beneath his feet began to shrivel up.

  The God-slaying Spear felt the overwhelming amount of power making its way and it shook, as it shook, the sound of the spear reverberated. The golden wave of Divine Blood pressed down on the God-slaying Spear as if it had not heard anything.

  The God-slaying Spear was entangled by the Divine Blood, and it let out a series of mournful cries. It kept wavering from the power.

  However, the Divine Blood’s power was like a maggot, hungry for rotten flesh. No matter how it struggled, it was useless.

  Before long, the platinum light around the God-slaying Spear dimmed.

  The Divine Blood finally dissipated, and the God-slaying Spear slowly fell from the galaxy…

  “F*ck…”

  After Li Yi finished observing the battle that happened in the galaxy, he was baffled by it all. Then, the God-slaying Spear that was falling started to burn with a pale white flame. It quickly changed its direction and rushed towards Li Yi.

  Li Yi raised his eyebrows when he saw this. He immediately understood what was happening. He stood still and waited for the God-slaying Spear.

  A moment later, the God-slaying Spear turned into a ray of light and hovered in front of Li Yi.

  Li Yi did not hesitate and directly held it in his hand.

  The white light dissipated and a silver spear that was engraved with countless divine patterns appeared.

  The system notification came as expected.

  [System Notification: The Divine Might Domain has been dissipated, all your attributes have been restored!]

  [System Notification: Congratulations on completing the Trial to Awaken the War God’s Strength — third round. You have received a reward; the sealed God-slaying Spear!]

  [Additional Note: After the Star God was killed by the War God, the Star God still bore deep resentment. When the God-slaying Spear was recovered, the now-dead Star God’s remaining resentment and Divine Blood was used as a sacrifice to seal it.]

  Li Yi felt much lighter after the Domain was lifted.

  He looked down at the God-slaying Spear in his hand, caressed its markings, and murmured to himself, “It’s CG…”

  In the game world, there were gorgeous computer graphic animations for missions, also known as CG.

  When the galaxy appeared with that earth-shattering scene, everything was pure CG.

  Li Yi looked at the weapon with wide eyes, the God-slaying Spear in his hand shook.

  Then, it suddenly turned into a stream of light, before he could react, it suddenly drilled into his head!??
