  Over the entire Mythical Continent, Qin Ruo had probably fought Liches the most, just as he was the last to kill one.

  In the chain of Golden Key missions, Qin Ruo had slain six Liches alone—though there were some tricks to it, that experience left Qin Ruo perfectly aware of their attributes, including Attack, Defense, Speed, and HP.

  This time, although he could not keep the Lich still which in turn made things much more difficult, the Divine Cleansing Potion provided him some assurance.

  Qin Ruo knew well that all he had to was break the barrier outside the Lich’s body, striking it directly with his spell so that his Frost magic could strike the monster down with Radiant Purification effect.

  That was not difficult.

  Whoosh!

  In the instant right before the Lich entered his range of attack, a golden vein of light shot out from Qin Ruo’s right shoulder towards the Lich as it stood over a Frostrampart that appeared out of thin air.

  Danger was coming.

  Highly vigilant, the Lich appeared to have seen through the Shadowfox’s speed and melee threat. With a flash of black light from the dark crystal in its hand, three silhouettes of lances darted away from before its own body!

  In the air, non-flyable monsters could not change their trail of movement. Furthermore, with Poochie’s movement speed and the velocity of the Death Lances, Qin Ruo could not so swiftly cast another Frostrampart for it as a new foothold.

  But within moments, Poochie suddenly bellowed sharply and rapidly!

  Shadow Howl!

  In no time at all, the three Death Lances fired by the Lich appeared to be pulled back by a giant, invisible hand, pausing abruptly and slowing down greatly……

  Seizing the chance, Poochie stood over the second Frostrampart that Qin Ruo had already cast, dramatically fleeing the Lich’s first wave of attack!

  The golden flash simply collided with the Lich that never slowed down.

  Shadow Razors!

  The barrier beyond the Lich’s body broke down into pieces accordingly.

  Meanwhile, three Compressed Frost Bullets fired from behind Poochie struck the Lich’s body, one after another……

  The Lich crashed down!

  Target hit, 1687 damage dealt to Lich! Chilled effect triggered……

  Target hit, 1752 damage dealt to Lich! Chilled effect triggered……

  Target hit, 1780 damage dealt to Lich! Chilled effect triggered, last 3 seconds! (Normal debuff effects do not stack)

  With the aid of the Divine Cleansing Potion, the Lich was 25% less resistant to Qin Ruo’s Water-element damage. Now, the Tier 6 Megaboss was no stronger than a typical spectral monster in the face of Compressed Frost Bullets that had almost 30% more Chilled effect.

  The first mundane barrage of multiple Compressed Frost Bullets had quickly left the Lich chilled for three seconds and more than five thousand HP damage. With a rapid rupture, it was dealt more than ten thousand damage, but it was a pity that the Laceration effect failed, or there would be another zero to that damage count.

  Be that as it may, Qin Ruo was very satisfied with that damage value!

  In the three seconds the Lich was chilled, he had already charged the third, up to the eight Frostrampart!

  Qin Ruo did not stop even as he saw that the Lich was about to escape its Chilled status, and swiftly condensed the ninth and tenth Frostrampart.

  Bang! Bang-bang-bang!

  Poochie attacked at the perfect moment: in the second the Lich was about to Defrost, its body split into four golden luminous forms, striking the Lich from every direction!

  Shadow Clone!

  Although its effect was not at full capacity, that particular skilled had already been used against Liches successfully a few times in the Buried City, and it was no exception this time. With a raging howl, the Lich fell to the ground again before it could rise, and was Stunned for five seconds.

  “Freeze!”


  With a loud, confident cry, the dozen of Frostramparts that stood around the Lich abruptly shifted!

  Boom!!

  A familiar reverberation. The Frostramparts Formation, white frost shooting into the air amidst wrathful wolf bellows, and the Lich was punished viciously!

  ***

  Windy Groan maintained a distance from the Lich pursuing himself as he fearfully streaked past swarms of Bone Dragons and Vampires, cold sweat soaking his back.

  In the end, he was a mere bandit: one of the Class with the lowest HP. He flew through the gaps between those countless powerful monsters at the risk of being blown into pieces—if he was a little more scared and fumbled, he would have been torn apart countless times in an instant.

  As he struggled against the danger for minutes, Windy Groan stole the time for a glance at the other distant but obvious battlefield, utterly shocked inside.

  Impressive!

  There was little wonder that a Supreme Champion of Netherclaw’s caliber would consider him a formidable foe and cautious against Fallen Angels. Not even Netherclaw would have the ability to fight that Lich alone and so easily.

  But as he pondered, a voice suddenly rang in his ears.

  “Lead the Lich to me,” Qin Ruo said.

  Windy Groan blanked out for a moment.

  “Huh?”


  ‘That quick?!’


  Taken aback, the Bandit carefully asked for clarification before accelerating and turning, drawing the Lich to Qin Ruo’s position, his face in disbelief and his heart thumping.

  More than twenty seconds passed. The Bandit could see from afar that Qin Ruo simply put his Twelve Frostramparts Formation out as if a decoration, while the man himself stood beside the Lich’s corpse, everything around him squeaky-clean. When he saw Windy Groan approaching and grumbling about how fast he moved that he could not even get one gold coin, the Aquamancer nonchalantly drank a bottle of Mana Potion and stepped out from the formation as if welcoming a guest and not a Lich.

  ***

  “Descend! Get inside!”


  Qin Ruo simply threw those words at Windy Groan and then attacked the Lich hot on his heels.

  This time, Windy Groan had the honor of witnessing the entire process of Qin Ruo fighting the Lich: how he comfortably broke its barrier, struck it down and enveloped it in Frost Net while also trampling it with Lycan Barrages, making it looking as simple as dicing poultry.

  The Bandit stood within the formation of twelve Frostramparts which emanated chill into the skies, and yet felt the blood in his body boil, irrepressibly thrilled!

  1600 Honor Points!

  Two Divinity Crystals obtained, along with a few Legendary equipment. Good heavens……

  Windy Groan clutched his head and stared at the gold coins and rewards scattered over the ground, unable to believe at all that the nigh-invincible Lich was so easily gotten rid of.

  Even if he was a Bandit—a class not of direct attack, Elementalists should not be that outrageously formidable!

  “Am I dreaming?”


  However, it was in that very moment when the even more unbelievable happened.

  Qin Ruo had suddenly vanished from his eyes, ignoring the spoils of war all over the ground and directly turned invisible before him, leaving a single silhouette.

  ‘Eh?’


  That move left Windy Groan at once alert as he reflexively drew his short sword, turning and scanning all around him.

  No Undead.

  Then, as he withdrew his gaze in confusion and turned back to the rewards on the ground……

  Ah!

  Windy Groan blanked out for a moment, before blanching!

  With the turn of an eye, everything scattered all over the ground had disappeared, including the hundreds of gold coins that had dropped between rocky cracks as well……

  What happened?

  Where were the Divine Crystals?

  What about the equipment? Could the respawning had occurred so quickly?!

  Windy Groan was ash white in shock, until Qin Ruo’s indifferent voice spoke to him.

  “Go back, Wind—I’m going to destroy the portal, let’s split the reward back at camp.”


  “Alright.”


  Although Windy Groan had many questions, he did not ask that question: he knew everything had to do with Qin Ruo. If the Aquamancer was willing, he would tell him back at camp after everything was over.

  ***

  Watching as the Firewing Panther carried Windy Groan into the distance, Qin Ruo transformed into a Vampire, flapping its wings toward where the leaderless Undead Horde was gathered.

  ***

  In the bowels of the caverns, Qin Ruo carefully avoided some of those Spectral Bosses that held themselves arrogantly or control their own little domains, and transformed into a Lich as he darted towards the portal.

  At the gigantic gateway, countless Underworld Spectrals were still being transported to the Buried City without end, never noticing that the Liches were killed.

  Although he was flapping his Angelic Wings, Qin Ruo, who appeared to be a Lich to outsiders hovered fifty meters above the portal.

  The Undead around them did not show much curiosity.

  Breathing slightly in relief, Qin Ruo drew out the bottle brimming in golden fluid given by Delia, and simply poured it out.

  The bottle made from unknown materials promptly spilled out the golden liquid, streaking down at the portal on the ground.

  Without waiting for the golden drops to fall, Qin Ruo pocketed the bottle and flapped his Angelic Wings, instantly accelerating to top speed back where he came from—the golden fluid had a three-second activation duration!

  The Undead all around naturally were unaware of what happened. They could only see the Lich with a mysterious appearance hovering for seconds over the portal bizarrely, before quickly turning back……

  Seconds later!

  Suddenly!

  The portal slightly dimmed, while the Undead that stepped on it was not transported away……

  The Undead kept pushing forward from behind, instinctively heading for the center of the portal!

  It would all have been inexplicable for ordinary Undead, nor could they comprehend why the portal would suddenly stop working. The Undead Bosses were simply stationed in that place, and know nothing about the portal exclusively protected by the Liches.

  Watching as other Undead crowded around the portal but were not warped away, each of them were left utterly confused……

  More puzzlingly, they were given no orders from their Lich leaders despite the failure of the portal, and simply flew outside instead—how irresponsible.

  ***

  Ha!

  In the instant he darted out of the mountains filled with Undead, Qin Ruo finally relaxed and sighed in relief, just as a system notification arrived rather late……

  “One portal linked to Buried City destroyed!”


  “10 Reputation Points obtained!”


  “10 Honor Points obtained!”


  Meanwhile, the Undead that were shambling toward the portal from beyond the mountains ceased their advance……
