Ling Xu had an idea and naturally set about implementing it.
To be safe, he even employed a small trick.
He pretended to be losing, panting and saying,
"Kid, I underestimated you.
With a trace of unwillingness and hatred in his eyes,
I'll let you go today, and take your life another time.
Having said that, his figure flickered and he disappeared.
In reality,
he had secretly activated another divine ability, Covert Explosive Kill.
This divine ability was just as its name suggested.
First, become invisible and hide, then find an opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the opponent.
On the surface, he had made his threats and vanished.
In reality, he was still lingering in the same spot,
closely watching Lin Feng's golden light shield.
He vowed in his heart,
"When your defensive divine ability disappears, that will be the time for me to display my might and take your life!"
He was not worried in the least that the opponent could see through his divine ability.
Could it be that besides defensive divine abilities, this mortal also possessed an all-seeing eye-like divine ability that could see through his invisibility?
If that were the case, he would be unlucky.
Of course,
to avoid this one-in-a-million chance,
he deliberately flickered in front of Lin Feng a few times, pretending to make a move, to test Lin Feng's reaction.
Seeing that Lin Feng was only nervously looking around, unable to see him, he was relieved.
He continued to roam, while observing Lin Feng's defensive divine ability.
Lin Feng became somewhat vigilant when the other party made his threats.
He was a Celestial Immortal, and would just concede defeat like this?
Moreover,
our conflict should not be a simple vendetta; it seems the other party came with a mission.
And just left like that?
Lin Feng did not believe it at all.
Although the opponent's combat power was higher than his, and he couldn't figure out what the opponent was up to through the Insight skill's marker,
he had just consumed a reinforced secret medicine.
The opponent seemed to have disappeared, but in his eyes, he could clearly see that the opponent had entered a state of invisibility.
Lin Feng dared not be careless about the opponent's scheme.
He remained on high alert.
As for the opponent's probing, Lin Feng also played along, feigning a completely vacant gaze, looking around.
As if the Ling Xu flickering before his eyes was completely invisible.
Ling Xu thought he was outsmarting the unsuspecting,
but he didn't expect that
Lin Feng was deliberately playing along with his intentions.
You think you're on the second level, but I'm on the first.
Actually, I'm on the fifth level.
Lin Feng, through the opponent's movements, had already guessed
that the opponent might have used the previously detected Covert Explosive Kill.
This skill, which was suspected to be a divine ability.
Lin Feng had seen many such skills.
It was nothing more than becoming invisible first, accumulating power.
When revealing oneself, one could unleash greater strength and aim for a one-hit kill.
Lin Feng naturally would not let him have his way.
Anyway, the Tribulation Golden Body would last for almost another 20 seconds, so he was happy to play along with the opponent.
And by the way,
he contemplated how to deal with it.
Lin Feng appeared nervous, but was inwardly relaxed.
However, Ling Xu was genuinely tense.
Although he had entered invisibility and his impending damage was accumulating,
why hadn't the opponent's divine ability dissipated yet?
His divine ability required 10 points of immortal power to activate.
Once in stealth, it consumed an additional 2 points of immortal power per second.
In just these ten-odd seconds, he had already consumed nearly 30 points of immortal power.
His expression was a little grim.
He only had 40 points of immortal power left.
This reserve already made him feel a sense of danger.
If it dragged on, even if he killed the opponent, he would be utterly depleted.
Without immortal power, what kind of immortal would he be?
Weakness Breaking, though powerful, could not be used continuously.
His next strike would be his last chance.
If the opponent had any trump cards to withstand his attack,
then there was no need to say anything, he should just run away.
What dignity of an immortal, it was all nonsense!
In his anxious gaze,
the golden light around Lin Feng seemed to dim slightly.
And the rate at which it faded was accelerating.
Ling Xu's eyes lit up.
He couldn't hold on anymore, could he?
He slowly approached,
simultaneously sensing the changes in his own immortal power.
When the golden light was reduced to a faint trace, about to dissipate,
Ling Xu tightened his grip on the saber in his hand.
A terrifying aura was building up.
His figure was also gradually solidifying and revealing itself.
He had 30 points of immortal power remaining.
And during these 20 seconds of divine ability state, his attack power had increased by a full 20 times!
He believed that without the protection of divine abilities, the opponent, let alone a mortal,
even an ordinary Celestial Immortal, would certainly not be able to withstand his full-power strike.
Lin Feng had been contemplating since the opponent entered invisibility and pranced around him like a monkey.
Even though he understood the opponent's intentions,
how should he respond?
Should he strike first?
But the opponent had immortal power protection, and his innate evasion rate was quite high.
If he attacked directly and missed, he would alert the enemy.
And without the protection of the Tribulation Golden Body, he would be utterly defenseless against the opponent's attack.
He had to guarantee a hit, and it had to be a killing blow.
In the Thunder Control state, neither ordinary lightning strikes nor super lightning strikes increased hit rate.
The Plum Blossom Thirteen Needles only increased the chance of ignoring defenses, not guaranteed to hit.
The Treasure Snatching in the Underworld King's Explosive Kill only guaranteed hitting high-level skills.
He thought with some regret.
If the Underworld King's Explosive Kill were a divine ability,
he could also guarantee a hit against the opponent's divine ability.
Thinking of this, Lin Feng's eyes lit up, a flash of inspiration.
He knew.
What he should do.
In the past, when skills reached a high level and were strengthened to their limit,
he was somewhat hesitant about the 10 million cultivation points that could be gained.
Now,
let alone 10 million, he didn't care about 100 billion cultivation points.
He spent 10,000,000 cultivation points to break through the rank restriction of Underworld King's Explosive Kill, and it was improved.
[Underworld King's Explosive Kill]
Exclusive skill for Yang Jian Qing Ming
Rank: Minor Divine Ability (Can be materialized)
Description: Consumes 5 points of immortal power, temporarily increases ignore defense by 99%, critical hit rate by 99%, deals damage equal to the user's base attack to the opponent (affected by critical hit, ignore defense, and crushing damage), and adds 10000% true damage.
Cooldown: 10 minutes.
[Life and Death Judgment]: Attack range increased by 1000%. If the opponent does not have a skill of higher rank, it will be a guaranteed hit; if the opponent has a higher rank, the damage will be reduced by 30% for each higher rank.
The exclusive trait of "mortal reality" had disappeared.
It seemed to have been merged into the base output.
And the original Treasure Snatching trait had been greatly strengthened.
Not only could it guarantee a hit against a minor divine ability of the same rank,
but it would only reduce damage against higher-ranked ones.
Lin Feng's heart settled.
And at this very moment,
the effect of the Tribulation Golden Body gradually disappeared.
Ling Xu, who was originally invisible opposite him, seemed to be unable to hold back and was about to attack.
Lin Feng's eyes turned cold.
I've been acting for so long, did you have fun?
His aura changed, and the nervous expression vanished.
I originally wanted to interact with you as an ordinary person, but what I got was your restless probing.
I'm not pretending anymore, I have a divine ability too, I'm laying my cards on the table.
The moment the opponent's figure gradually solidified, Lin Feng drew his sword and struck first.
Silver light flashed, swift as a dragon.
As the saying goes:
The cold light flashes like frost, the ringing clearness sparkles like snow.
Ling Xu, who was full of confidence, felt his entire body stiffen, and a sense of death enveloped him.
His face instantly turned to one of utter horror.
But he couldn't bring himself to swing his saber.
The generous gifts and rewards from the big bosses were too awesome, I bow and thank you, the bosses have spent lavishly!
I'll try my best to add an extra chapter this afternoon, thank you friends for your strong support!
