Level 40 ordinary monsters, as long as their number didn’t exceed five hundred, posed no pressure for Song Jian when he deployed the Five Elements Sword Array. Within the spatial bounds of the sword formation, strings of damage figures, numbering in the thousands, floated densely while those Talon Beasts failed to even find a target. In a short while, all the level 40 ordinary monsters turned into experience points for Song Jian, with their corpses falling to the ground with multiple “plop” sounds as if raining down;
After all the Talon Beasts had been slain, Song Jian’s experience points rose by a small margin. The Sky-breaking Sword returned to his hand, and he casually struck the Double-headed Poisonous Jiao on the ground with a swing of the Thousand Swords Art, then continued to widen the distance between them;
The Double-headed Poisonous Jiao opened its wide mouths, spewing two balls of liquid veiled in poison mist, flying towards Song Jian. With a flap of his wings, Song Jian swept through the air in an arc, dodging the trajectory of the poisonous liquid balls;
Bang! Bang!
The two poisonous liquid balls, having reached mid-air, suddenly burst open, transforming into a cloud of poison that immediately covered an area of over a hundred meters. Song Jian’s dodge was swift, but he was still stained by some of the poison fog. In a short while, a thin layer of green poison gas began to cover the surface of his body;
All attributes decreased by 30%, defense reduced by 1000 points, and losing 10 Vitality Points per second, lasting for 5 minutes;
Song Jian was startled, not expecting that this boss would possess such a formidable area-of-effect skill. For players, this terrifying skill meant countless deaths with no chance to even get close.
The toxin from the Double-headed Poisonous Jiao was indeed fearsome. The moment the toxic effect took hold, a cool current emerged in his mind, instantly suppressing the poison. However, the innate ability “Thick-faced” could only suppress the toxin, and could not grant immunity to the toxin of the Double-headed Poisonous Jiao;
After the talent ability activated, the effects of the poison fog were reduced to a decrease of all attributes by 5%, defense by 200 points, and a loss of 1 Vitality Point per second, lasting for 120 seconds;
Song Jian glanced at the only bottle of Advanced Detoxification Potion in his inventory, hesitated for a moment, and decided to save it for a critical time. This detox potion, which only a Master Level Alchemy could concoct, was a reward from a special quest, put up for sale in the auction house;
Song Jian had spent 20,000 Doomsday Coins to purchase this bottle of Advanced Detoxification Potion, reserved for emergencies;
At this moment, the Double-headed Poisonous Jiao issued another roar. From within the poison mire, more flying creatures flew towards the area, viciously swooping at Song Jian;
The cooldown period for the Five Elements Sword Array was quite long, and he could only deploy it once in a battle. Song Jian chugged a potion to restore his Mental Strength and silently waited for the approaching creatures;
Only when the flock of flying creatures drew near did Song Jian realize that among these ordinary monsters of over level 40, there were even two or three elite bosses.
Nevertheless, to the Thousand Swords Art, elite bosses were not much different from ordinary monsters. However, with these flying creatures present, Song Jian couldn’t continue inflicting damage on the Double-headed Poisonous Jiao;
Thousand Swords Art!
Tens of Spirit Swords rushed towards the oncoming flying creatures, like a rain of swords. Before they could even reach Song Jian, they fell one after another. The loot sparkled with various colors mid-air, a spectacular sight;
At this time, Song Jian couldn’t afford to collect these items, letting them fall into the mire. After the Thousand Swords Art concluded, all the flying creatures were wiped out. Song Jian’s gaze then returned to the Double-headed Poisonous Jiao;
At this moment, the Double-headed Poisonous Jiao appeared to be gathering strength, spewing out two more balls of poisonous liquid towards Song Jian;
Song Jian was alarmed. He knew that the Double-headed Poisonous Jiao’s toxin damage could stack, and he already had a layer of “Poison” on him. Although his innate skill “Thick-Skinned” had weakened it considerably, it wouldn’t withstand continuous stacking!
With a thought, Song Jian’s figure swiftly fled toward the distance. The coverage of the poison globules after the explosion was too extensive for ordinary people to dodge in time!
In the air, Song Jian was much faster than on land, but still couldn’t completely avoid the spread of the poison mist after the explosion of the poison spheres. Inevitably, the “Poison” effect in the status bar stacked up to 2 layers;
Poison (2 layers): All stats decreased by 10%, defense decreased by 400 points, losing 3 Vitality Points per second, lasting 120 seconds
A wave of weakness surged over him instantly. The effect of 2 layers of Poison had nearly doubled, and what frustrated Song Jian even more was that the duration of the Poison effect was refreshed. The effect, which originally had only sixty or seventy seconds left, had restarted at 120 seconds;
However, it was a relief that the Double-headed Poisonous Jiao BOSS’s skill had a rather long cooldown and couldn’t be used consecutively, otherwise Song Jian would probably have had to turn and run.
Soon after, the BOSS summoned three waves of flying creatures for an attack and spat poison globules three more times, each time covering hundreds of square meters and leaving Song Jian no place to hide. The Poison effect quickly stacked up to five layers.
Half an hour later, no matter how fiercely the Double-headed Poisonous Jiao roared, not a single flying creature came. Only then did Song Jian start to boldly attack it;
Thousand Swords Art!
At present, this was Song Jian’s only ranged attack method. If he attacked with the Sword Control Skill, it would be equivalent to just hacking away with very little power—Song Jian rarely used it. As for the Sword Flight Art, Song Jian didn’t have a real flying sword at the moment. If he were to use the Sky-breaking Sword for flight, he couldn’t attack, and so far, Song Jian hadn’t thought of a perfect solution.
After failing to summon flying creatures, the Double-headed Poisonous Jiao not only spat out poison globules but also used another skill, toxin link. Anyone with the “Poison” effect would be drawn right in front of it.
Floating in mid-air, Song Jian suddenly felt a strong force surging towards him, pulling him in the direction of the BOSS. At this moment, Song Jian didn’t know the principle behind the BOSS’s skill, and seeing himself charging uncontrollably towards the BOSS, he panicked;
With a thought, Song Jian directly entered the Shattered Divine Realm, and immediately, the powerful pulling force disappeared. After glancing at the Poison effect on him, Song Jian waited in the Divine Country until the Poison effect had gone before leaving the realm;
Having lost track of Song Jian, the Double-headed Poisonous Jiao became confused. After searching around, it headed back toward that strange tree in the lake, upon which another fruit remained uneaten;
But just then, Song Jian’s figure suddenly reappeared. In the instant he showed up, the Double-headed Poisonous Jiao spotted him and locked onto Song Jian, turning its head, a stream of venom and poisonous smoke sprayed towards where Song Jian was;
At that moment, Song Jian could only use the Soul Wander skill again to dodge the BOSS’s attack, then he continued with the Thousand Swords Art to strike at it. Dozens of Spirit Swords materialized, and this time, out of more than forty Spirit Swords, half of them scored critical hits, instantly reducing the BOSS’s Vitality Points by seventy to eighty thousand. One Spirit Sword even pierced straight through the left neck, tearing a wound over three feet long;
The seriously injured BOSS was immediately enraged, raising its body high and slamming its front paws fiercely toward the ground;
