Chapter 624: Chapter 624: Level Thirty
“Immortal Sword Body!”
With a light shout from Song Jian, a dazzling golden light radiated from his body. Eight long sword phantoms appeared and began to slowly rotate around him. The original “Mud Binding” effect slowly disappeared as the Immortal Sword Body came into effect; the mud on his body shattered under the pressure of his strong aura.
The previous shallow imprints left by his sword strikes on the body of the Earth Elemental Lord – the Boss – turned into deep incisions; each attack scattering numerous small rocks.
Light Strike!
The Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword suddenly erupted with a golden Sword Qi several meters long, slashing towards the Earth Elemental Lord;
“Glug glug!”
Golden Sword Qi left a one-inch deep cut on the body of the stone elemental, the wound filled with golden Sword Qi that caused the surrounding rocks to collapse continuously;
The Light Strike was primarily targeted towards creatures of darkness attribute, but this didn’t mean its power would diminish when attacking creatures of other attributes. In fact, Light Strike was always Song Jian’s strongest attacking skill, dealing even more significant damage to creatures of darkness attribute;
The Boss roared and raised its foot towards Song Jian. Song Jian gathered his sword aura and moved aside;
A massive ‘boom’ echoed as the ground within a ten-meter radius sank a foot deep. A shockwave sent Song Jian flying, resulting in over three hundred points of damage.
“It’s hard to avoid the Boss’s area attacks,” Song Jian grumbled, taking out an Advanced Healing Potion from his bag and gulping it down;
Roar~!
A dragon roar echoed as the mud binding the Black Dragon was turned into a thick shell by the searing dragon’s breath and lost its adhesive nature. The Black Dragon broke free and regained its freedom;
Seemingly irritated by the Earth Elemental Lord that had brought it down from the sky, the Black Dragon flew up and opened its mouth wide. From the depths of its throat, an impressive red light was gathering;
Seconds later, the red light morphed into a red vortex filled with the volatile essence of flames;
Boom!
A rapidly rotating Vortex Fireball spewed out from the Black Dragon’s mouth, harshly slamming into the Earth Elemental Lord. The fiery energy, like a drill, bore into the body of the Earth Elemental Lord. The rocks in contact with the Vortex Fireball turned red hot, and lava even started flowing at the areas closest to the fireball;
When the Vortex Fireball could no longer penetrate deeper, the violent flames burst out all at once. The powerful explosion created a pit over a meter in diameter on the body of the Earth Elemental Lord, scattering numerous rocks and spraying hot lava;
The blow caused significant damage to the Earth Elemental Lord, an injury exceeding a thousand points appeared above its head. Half of its body was blown up, and it let out a painful roar. Its previously raised arms slumped, and its body disintegrated again;
Song Jian’s eyes lit up. This time, the disassembled rocks of the Earth Elemental Lord were even smaller than before, each barely measuring a foot in diameter;
“Black Dragon, use an area attack on these scattered rocks…” Song Jian ordered.
The Black Dragon, weakened after using the Vortex Fireball, dove towards the ground, spewing flames as it flew.
Song Jian, with his long sword, rapidly slashed at the surrounding rock spheres.
The defenses of the stone spheres greatly decreased as they crumbled into smaller ones. However, Song Jian turned his attention to the initially disassembled rocks;
The Black Dragon dove down, spewing fire as it flew, turning the smaller rock spheres into ash. A gust of wind blew, and they turned into dust.
After ten seconds, all the stone spheres began merging again. However, the fully fused Earth Elemental Lord was now half its original size, measuring only six to seven meters tall;
An injury of over two thousand points floated above the newly formed Earth Elemental Lord;
‘Let’s see how many times you can regenerate…’ Song Jian squinted, determinedly declaring.
With a thought, a figure made of shadows appeared before him – an Abyssal Phantom – who together with Song Jian, charged the Earth Elemental Lord from both sides.
Though unable to activate the “Holy Sword” skill, the Abyssal Phantom was able to draw the Earth Elemental Lord Boss’s attention. Song Jian activated his “Rapid Sword”, and his attack speed increased instantly;
At this point, Song Jian’s Immortal Sword Body was about to reach its time limit. Once the effect ended, Song Jian would not be able to fight the Earth Elemental Lord head-on.
Thud, thud, thud~
The Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword continuously hit the Earth Elemental Lord. Song Jian hoped to activate the “Holy Sword” effect by increasing his attack speed, but the effect did not activate before the Rapid Sword effect wore off;
Song Jian’s expression darkened. If he could not shatter the Earth Elemental Lord again, once his Immortal Sword Body effect wore off, his only option would be to flee.
However, at that very moment, Song Jian suddenly received a system alert;
System: You have completed the Epic Task, Queen Katerina. Anna Katerina has officially taken her first step to becoming Queen. Task reward: Level increased by 1, all attribute points increased by 2;
A ray of light emerged from Song Jian. The twenty-ninth level Song Jian instantly became level thirty;
His Vitality Points that had dropped to 60% also immediately replenished to full;
Eye of Doom!
Song Jian’s vertical eye on his forehead opened, shooting a dazzling silver beam towards the Earth Elemental Lord Boss. The Boss has a stout physical defense, but its mental resistance should be slightly weaker. Song Jian had never come across a Boss with robust physical, magical, and mental defenses;
The silver beam hit the Earth Elemental Lord, immediately causing countless sparks. The impacted area started cracking quickly, shedding stone powder;
The Earth Elemental Lord let out a fearful roar as it stuck its hand into the swamp mud. In no time, the murky mud followed its body towards other parts, quickly coating the Earth Elemental Lord Boss;
The silver beam from Eye of Doom continued to hit its target, continuously opposing the mud, and after five seconds it had only caused slightly over two hundred points of damage after an initial damage of over eight hundred points;
It appeared that the mud layer covering its body was aimed at resisting mental damage and increasing its mental resistance;
