Absolute Death Game-Chapter 300 - 70 Heart Piercer - Blade of Wailing_3
The longsword plunged unimpeded into the corpse’s body and a crackle of lightning blasted Liu Xing’s corpse into a staggering retreat.
Ultimate Skill—Wind Rolls The Scattered Clouds! A tornado-like blade light shredded the black cloak on the meteor’s body, exposing the dry bones beneath the cape.
Liu Xing’s corpse suddenly flew out, crashing into a heap on the ground, devoid of any sound.

Looking at the still corpse, Xiao Buli suddenly felt fear, a surge of anger bubbling up from the bottom of his heart, "Is that all you’ve got? Are you really that weak? Why are you so useless? Just because you’re dead, is that your excuse?"
As if possessed, Xiao Buli typed out those words, but the corpse still lay there silently. Xiao Buli sighed, turned around, and prepared to leave, no longer caring about any loot.
Just as he was about to reach the exit beneath the hall’s stone statues, without any warning, dim green ghostly fires suddenly flared up around the hall, enveloping the entire place.
Xiao Buli was startled, and as he turned back, the corpse had already stood up; from its hollow eyes, a heap of eerie blue flames emerged.
The corpse casually struck an Immortal Points the Way pose, its fleshless left hand crooking a finger at him invitingly—Liu Xing’s favorite opening move. For some reason, Xiao Buli suddenly felt a strange sense of kinship with the ghastly corpse before him.
"You’re really standing up again, good, I’ll entertain you a little longer," Xiao Buli turned back.
The battle unfolded once more, and immediately, Xiao Buli sensed a change in the corpse—not rigid, but full of spontaneity. This randomness made him feel the presence of an actual being, not just a computer program.
Xiao Buli was on full alert, the more fiercely he fought, the more surprised he became to find that the opponent’s fighting style was exactly like Liu Xing’s old self: completely unpredictable, not abiding by the rules. If it weren’t for the opponent’s ghostly appearance, he might even think that Liu Xing was still alive.
But the more it was so, the more difficult he found it to cope. He was on the brink of defeat—(Looks like I need to use a spell.)
He was thinking this when Liu Xing suddenly employed an Assault Skill to reach his back. Xiao Buli quickly turned, no one there; turned again, still no one.
Shadow Clone! Instead of retreating, Xiao Buli charged forward into the emptiness ahead, but before him flickered a silhouette, materializing exactly where he had been planning to retreat.
The air seemed to freeze instantly; Xiao Buli was taken aback and enraged. He was in an Insight state—he still remembered the name of Liu Xing’s weapon—Heart Piercer—that sword had a special effect: a chance to enter Insight status upon attacking, the next attack would ignore the target’s defense and guaranteed to be a critical hit…
But Liu Xing’s corpse merely flicked its longsword, consecutively thrusting three times. The first destroyed the shield, shattering Xiao Buli’s Spiritual Energy Shield with 200 durability in an instant.
The second thrust, Blood Void, wiped out more than half of his over four hundred health points, his black Dragon Scale armor’s high defense might as well have been paper-mache. By the time the third thrust was delivered, Xiao Buli had already smelled death approaching.
Coldness spread to his limbs, and he stood frozen, but the instinct to survive made him subconsciously press the R key, Protective Shield charge! Using the active effect of Spiritual Energy Shield, Xiao Buli instantly regained 100 shield points and swiftly retreated backward....
He put distance of several meters between them and when he turned back, he was stunned—the final thrust from Liu Xing’s corpse had not been made; it remained frozen in place, the longsword in a thrusting pose like a statue.
"Liu Xing, is that you?" Xiao Buli tentatively typed out the question.
The corpse stepped back, looked at its hand in front of its eyes, and suddenly unleashed a heart-wrenching howl before charging at him once more.
Xiao Buli hardened his resolve, no longer stubbornly relying on sword skills. After that moment, he realized that if it was just a matter of swordplay, he was no match for Liu Xing, whose use of Instantaneous Movement was evidently a spell effect. So why persist? Moreover, he had no desire to taste the scent of death a second time.

A series of attacks flowed like drifting clouds and running water; Liu Xing’s corpse’s assault seemed to lack any pattern, being completely overwhelmed and annihilated. This time it did not stand up again, its body too broken, and as Xiao Buli approached, the blue fire in its eyes had been extinguished.
Finally over, huh? Xiao Buli thought. What did that final wail mean? Who was it that stood up for the first time to fight him? It seemed that he would no longer get any answers.
He clicked to loot, and from the body, only one piece of equipment dropped, a silver one-handed sword.
Heart Piercer—Blade of Wailing: Attack 27-39.
Use: Enter Insight state, your next attack ignores the target’s defense and is a guaranteed critical hit, cooldown one hour.
Equipment Note: When the sword is unsheathed, it emits a faint wailing sound, as if recounting the tragic fate of its former master.
Clearly, an upgraded version of Heart Piercer, but that equipment note....
Xiao Buli sighed, ready to move further in when the extinguished blue fire in the skull of the corpse flickered again and its fuzzy voice said, "Don’t enter... the game... is... alive."
