If it weren’t for Lin Xun readily healing her on the side, the Nine-tailed Fox would have collapsed long ago.

Such a terrifying battle prevents close combat Shikigamis like Sly Ghosts from approaching. They can only protect Shell which is inhabited by ’Zai Wang Zhi Zu Ji’ and remain by Lin Xun’s side.

Snow Woman only dares to release ’Extreme Cold Domain’ from a distance as auxiliary deceleration, but even enhanced by the forbidden technique of ’Condensed Mire Nirvana’, the deceleration is still insignificant. Its weakening effect on the General is barely noticeable.

The Valkyrie continuously shoots arrows, but even the formidable ’Brilliant Light’ can’t penetrate the General’s armour. It can only slightly erode the Malice aura on the armour, reducing a tiny bit of the armour value.

For the General in his’ Asura King’ form, this level of damage is negligible.

[...]

[’Nine-tailed Fox’ once again wields three divine swords to resist the full blow of the General. Its face is pale, spitting blood from the corner of its mouth...] 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

[You can feel that ’Nine-tailed Fox’ has suffered very severe injuries.]

Lin Xun uses the last ’Red Blooded Coral’ to fully restore the energy consumed by the ’Zai Wang Zhi Zu Ji’ Shell.

Immediately after, he heals the ’Nine-tailed Fox’ once again.

[’The General’ suddenly looks at you, his eyes full of intense malice. You healing the ’Nine-tailed Fox’ continuously seems to be irritating him.]

[He roars deep, stretches out a giant arm, and hurls out a pitch-black spear!]

[The spear rips through the air, with the power to destroy everything, rushing towards you!]

[All you can see is the spear, like a giant column, getting bigger in front of your eyes...]

"Damn it!"

To cast healing skills timely, Lin Xun is still residing in the Shell belonging to ’Zai Wang Zhi Zu Ji’.

If he changed to ’Star Lord Canis’, although he wouldn’t be able to resist the General’s full blow, he would at least have some hope of escaping with his swordsmanship.

But the Shell of the healer is fragile and slow. Besides the ultimate healing skills, it has no other strengths. How could it possibly dodge the full blow of the General?

[The ’Sly Ghost’ next to you wraps you quickly with his limbs and throws you away, facing the devastating black spear alone...]

[In an enormous explosion, the black spear penetrates the Sly Ghost’s body, firmly nailing it to the ground...]

[Your Shikigami, ’Sly Ghost of Origin’, is dead!]

[’Nine-tailed Fox’, with flaming red hair, takes advantage of the brief gap when the General attacks and initiates ’Soul Taking and Spirit Seizing’!]

[In the moment that the General is disoriented, three divine swords of different colors all strike at the enemy!]

[Brilliant Purple Lightning, Fire Lotus, and Ruthless Blood Light all burst into flames, engulfing the ’General’s figure.]

[...]

[When the General is seen again, half of his pitch-black armour is gone, and the aura of Malice on his armour has largely decreased.]

Lin Xun narrowly escapes death. Without Sly Ghost sacrificing himself, Lin would have been dead by now.

The Nine-tailed Fox takes the opportunity to release her ult, significantly reducing the General’s armour value.

Before he has time to cheer for the victory achieved by the Nine-tailed Fox, a scene of despair is displayed in the game.

[The ’General’ roars, the weapon in his hand dims, and the aura of Malice on it flows towards the armour, instantly repairing it!]

[It’s only now that you notice, still inserted in the ground not far from you, is the black spear, which also dims along with the weapons in the hands of the General, as if there is an invisible thread connecting the six weapons and the large armour.]

[Both the weapon and the armour are made from a wisp of Malice that comes from the Gods. When the armour suffers damage, the weapons will share the Malice aura to repair the armour, and vice versa.]

[This means that unless you can destroy all the weapons and armour in the General’s hands, it is impossible for you to harm the General himself...]

Lin Xun grits his teeth, feeling nothing but deep despair.

Like the Omniscient World, which is also part of the Hell Chapter, the difficulty is great too. Except for the Hidden Map ’Hermit Gorge’, which is much more difficult than the Chapter itself, the rest of the BOSS can be considered reasonably hard. Even the final BOSS isn’t that monstrous.

But in this Chapter, the BOSS in the early part of the Chapter is also like the Omniscient World. Although it put pressure on Lin Xun, it didn’t make him feel hopeless. The strength of the ’General’, however, is far beyond the difficulty of this Chapter!

He really can’t figure out how any Apostle other than himself could have managed to get this far.

If others encounter the General, they probably won’t even survive with a hundred lives.

"It’s just unreasonable! The game doesn’t give any chances at all, it’s impossible to pass with this kind of difficulty..."

[’The General’ raises his weapon again, attacking the ’Nine-tailed Fox’...]

Lin Xun can only mechanically play the role of a healing assistant.

After casting the healing skill, he quickly switches to the Shell of ’Star Lord Canis’ and flees with the sword, to prevent being ambushed by the General again.

To tell the truth, he doesn’t hold much hope for passing this Chapter.

Because when the energy of ’Zai Wang Zhi Zu Ji’ is depleted again... it will be the time of total defeat!

’The Dancing God’, as he thought, ultimately wasn’t willing to show up.

But as the General attacks again and again, he gradually notices that the General’s attack power seems to... weaken a bit.
