MMO: Pierce Heaven Til' It Breaks 712 The Strongest Soul Staff

Li Yi prepared a Powered-up Arrow early, and he released his bowstring once the yellow dot on the minimap materialized as a person.

Wham!

[-37765]

The Powered-up Arrow dealt 30,000+ damage, but the individual did not fall to the ground. He raised a hand, and his body displayed a light blue hue. This was a Sky Vagabond's Superior Healing Spell.

The individual was not The Mountain, it was Milky Way Star!

Behind him was the only surviving boss, the Demon Wolf Priest. This confirmed Li Yi's hypothesis. Whether it was Tyrant Sword King the Fifth or Milky Way Star, there was no possibility that they could defeat a purple-named boss alone.

They relied on the legendary Summoner!

Where was he?

There were only one yellow dot and one red dot on the minimap. The former was Milky Way Star. The latter was the Demon Wolf Priest. The Mountain who had used Life Exchange was nowhere to be found.

The three shadow staves from earlier appeared above the Demon Wolf Priest, their damage increasing gradually. They dealt more than 4 million damage in three hits.

The Demon Wolf turned slightly red, which was a precursor of it going berserk.

Li Yi was amazed.

The Mountain was hidden in the dark the last time, and the Demon Fox Priest had fallen before Li Yi could see anything.

Wasn't this... Soul Staff Technique?

The shadows continued to appear, and the damage continued to increase. Li Yi stopped shooting and observed closely.

He was very curious, how did the weakest skill in Pantheon become so strong?

Milky Way Star took the Demon Wolf Priest on a tour, while The Mountain continued his attack. Soon, the Demon Wolf went berserk.

"Territory release! Platinum Star!"

The instant the Demon Wolf Priest went berserk, Milky Way Star shouted causing his body to turn silver. His speed drastically increased, reaching Li Yi in a heartbeat.

They were fifty yards away from each other, and his Platinum Star boosted him so fast that he was right in front of Li Yi in the next second.

Coming down like lightning, Li Yi took the initiative to release the Territory barrier. Milky Way Star slowed down slightly. Li Yi quickly sidestepped and dodged him.

Hush hush...

His blade showed no sign of stopping, generating a trail of shadows as he went. He swung twenty-five times in one go.

When used Platinum Star greatly increased his movement speed and attack speed. This Territory skill was the best of its kind.

Platinum Star, the white meteor!

Whoosh!

Milky Way Star did not stop moving even after missing once, he struggled to escape the light barrier.

"Damn you! Die! Die!"

The enraged Demon Wolf Priest entered Li Yi's light barrier. It raised its staff and summoned a blizzard.

The blizzard covered more than a hundred yards, completely enveloping his light barrier!

Even if Li Yi's light barrier was at full power, he could not completely suppress the spell, not to mention the fact that his Territory power was nearly depleted, and the Demon Wolf Priest was still berserk. If one did not move fast, the hail would strike one's head.

Milky Way Star was close to the boundary of the light barrier, but how could Li Yi easily let his target slip? He teleported right in front of Milky Way Star and they were both consumed by the hailstorm.

It was impossible to evade when they were right in the eye of the superstorm. Milky Way Star could not resist, and his body was repeatedly hit. He was unable to cast his Superior Healing Spell and eventually croaked after eight seconds.

Li Yi attempted to escape the blizzard. He consumed Sacred Tranquility, recovery potions, cast Life Blood, summoned the Violent Bear King for assistance, he left no stones unturned. In the end, he escaped the area of effect with little HP left to spare.

His HP was at 3056. One more second in the blizzard and there would be nothing left of him.

The Mountain was indeed unscrupulous. He hid and allowed Milky Way Star to lure the boss over, and then let it do his dirty work.

Li Yi entered Camouflage Mode and faked his death. The Demon Wolf Priest was still casting its spell, allowing him to slip away unnoticed.

He was safe—

Boom!

Just as Li Yi thought everything had calmed down, he heard a noise. A red mist erupted from his wrist, inflicting 5876 damage to him.

Plop!

Li Yi fell to the ground.

In the distance, the berserk boss lost its target. The red disappeared from its body. With a pair of confused eyes, it stood in a daze.

A large tree leaped towards Li Yi's body and shook a few times. The Mountain separated from said tree.

A Natural Summoner's summoned beast, the Shapeshifting Tree.

After casting Life Exchange, he summoned the Tree instead of leaving. After merging with the Tree, he disguised himself part of the Demonic Forest, staying out of Li Yi's sight.

The Shapeshifting Tree can transform into various plants by imitation. Its sneak attack was very strong, but at the expense of its attack power. It had only one skill, the Bursting Seed.

When The Mountain interrupted Li Yi's aim during their last battle, his Soul Staff Technique caused only one damage to Li Yi, but he had, in fact, also planted a seed above Li Yi's wrist.

The Bursting Seed did not do much damage. It also took a long time from planting to bursting, hence the best time to use it was when an opponent had low health.

"Even a berserk boss can't kill you. Impressive."

Li Yi laid on his back in silence.

"Do you know why I was avoiding you?" The Mountain said.

Without waiting for Li Yi to answer, he turned his back and looked at the ether and sighed. "I am a powerhouse. Before I know for certain that I can defeat you, I will not take any chances. I am not afraid of losing, I am simply afraid of trouble."

Li Yi asked, "What trouble?"

"You are definitely not convinced that you lost. You will retaliate in the future, and I am not entirely sure that I can defeat you. What if I am ambushed? Doesn't that sound like trouble?"

Li Yi grinned. "One could say so."

The Mountain gazed at the sky.

"Brother, I need a hand here."

Milky Way Star shouted.

The Mountain took out his Cardiac Pacemaker Model V1 and went to Milky Way Star.

Li Yi stood up and squatted, slowly pulling his bowstring and aimed at The Mountain.

Tch-psh-bish-tst-pst-brrrr

He fired a Quintuple Powered-up Arrow.

Not just the Natural Summoner had life-saving skills, a Trap Archer too had the advanced form of Pseudocide, Keep Going If Alive.

Keep Going If Alive: An upgraded version of the Archer's Pseudocide skill. Upon activation, HP will be reduced to zero. The character would stay alive but will enter a fake death state (When lying on the ground, the Archer is unable to move for five seconds. If attacked while in this state, the Archer will perish), this skill lasts for twelve seconds.

To have zero HP and not die, one must use it in advance while one is still alive. The effective duration of this skill was only 12 seconds. Once cast, one must be killed within twelve seconds or the skill would be rendered useless. 

Before the seed exploded but after Li Yi escaped from the blizzard, he had used the skill.

However, it was intended to prevent the Demon Wolf Priest from killing him. Just one second before the skill lapsed, The Mountain activated the Bursting Seed.

It was a mere coincidence.

"Behind you!" Milky Way Star saw him and cried out.

"Territory—"

Wham!

The Mountain did not finish his chant in time. The Powered-up Arrow pierced through the back of his skull. A stunning red figure of 128,765 critical damage floated above his head.

Critical hit!

Staggering hit!

One-hit kill!

The Mountain fell to the ground. Half of his body stacked right on top of Milky Way Star.

"Yes brother, you are dead, but to err is human."

It was too sudden; The Mountain had not seen it coming.

A Resurrection Talisman would give out a sound to notify that the resurrection was a success. After which there would be one to three seconds of forced inactivity. If Li Yi had used that method, it would not have been so easy to kill The Mountain. It would be another matter entirely.

Both of his adversaries were dead, but they had not dropped anything.

Milky Way Start sent a private message. "Brother, I have one Resurrection Talisman. What about you?"

"None."

"Are you s— you brought me to the Demon Domain without bringing any?"

"What are you going to do with that thing? You can only use them 3 times a day. It doesn't make much of a difference."

"Then... what do you do now?"

"What else can I do? Just die, it's not like I am inexperienced in that."

"I… I am so done with you."

"If you are not satisfied, you can stand up now, use your Platinum Star, charge him, then slash him twenty-five times, and beat him with Wind Swipe. if he is still not dead, do it again, slash at him 25 times..."

"…"

Li Yi could not hear the dialogue between them, but when he walked toward their bodies, they had already released themselves from their corpses, chosen to take the level down, and returned to the continent.

Victory?

Li Yi frowned slightly, aiming at the Demon Wolf Priest in the distance, and fired once.

Wham!

The Demon Wolf Priest bellowed and sped towards him.

Li Yi fought as he retreated, gradually nearing the body of Tyrant Sword King the Fifth.
