Chapter 501 - 506: Undersea Barrier
The powerful spiritual attack of the Deep Sea Demon King erupted in an instant, like a tsunami, sweeping outwards with an attack radius of several kilometers. The main attack form was a spiritual attack.
Spiritual attacks are unavoidable.
They are as fast as light, with no motion trajectory.
Such a swift attack, and such a vast range.
Hang Yu could only completely abandon any defense or evasion, and endure the baptism of the attack directly.
Before this, he had used various injection potions, activating several high-priced advanced blue skill scrolls, all effects aimed at enhancing awareness and strengthening resistance.
-202!
Hang Yu still felt a significant reduction in life energy.
The tentacles of the Deep Sea Demon King had already been obliterated by Hang Yu; its strength should be strongly weakened, like a toothless tiger, but never assume a tiger without teeth can be casually handled by anyone.
A mighty figure always remains mighty.
A toothless tiger is still a tiger.
A massive slap can leave anyone utterly stunned.
Even weakened, King Level monsters possess terrifying strength; without a doctor for support, trying to deal with them easily is wishful thinking.
Hang Yu’s own strength was already near King Level.
He frantically spent his money on skill scrolls, garnering a body full of BUFFs.
Yet, facing such a terrifying opponent, Hang Yu still felt a considerable amount of pressure.
In the underwater environment, typical potions couldn’t be consumed. Although some injection medications were specifically prepared, it was challenging to inject oneself amidst battle, relying mainly on the bloodsucking ability of the Prison Blood Demon for recovery.
Demon Blood Awakening, Fighting Qi Armor!
Light-Seeking Sword, Mad Demon Burial!
Hang Yu’s twin blades transformed into a light saber, illuminating the seabed and separating the seawater, hitting the Deep Sea Demon King with incredibly intense explosions. Instantly, it unleashed on the sea floor, causing the submarine gorge to collapse.
-912!
The Deep Sea Demon was a monster of the Demon Race; Hang Yu dealt with it using light attribute attacks, often delivering double damage. And accompanied by this fierce attack, the battle officially commenced!
The Deep Sea Demon King had three attack modes.
The first is the most powerful, large-scale indiscriminate spiritual strike.
The second involves water skills for mid-range attacks.
The third is close-range physical attacks with tentacles.
Hang Yu maintained ultra-high-speed movement under tremendous water pressure; although the Deep Sea Demon King’s physical attacks were strong, their speed was not very quick, so he could evade by relying on his speed, while for less avoidable water magic attacks, he could deploy flashing, virtualization skills to dodge.
One word: Grind!
A Level 17 King Monster’s life force can reach seventy thousand!
Additionally, their life recovery is excellent, not easy at all to slay single-handedly; Hang Yu launched a relentless assault for six entire hours.
Throughout, his focus remained intensely concentrated.
Facing a monster as strong as the Deep Sea Demon King, any mistake might lead to immediate demise. While Hang Yu’s attacks could effectively impose massive damage, the life recovery abilities of the Deep Sea Demon were just too robust.
Every second, dozens to hundreds of life energy were recovered.
After grinding for over six hours, he eventually wore down 80% of the opponent’s life force!
The Deep Sea Demon’s purple-black body suddenly glowed vibrant red, releasing high energy.
The already very powerful spiritual attack then nearly doubled in strength; even Hang Yu couldn’t withstand it anymore.
This deep-sea squid spirit had gone berserk!
Hang Yu did not recklessly face it head-on.
Because Hang Yu deduced from innate memory that when the Deep Sea Demon’s life force dropped below 20%, it would enter a frenzied state and its destructive power would multiply.
Moreover, the lower the life energy, the stronger the power, akin to bloodthirsty frenzy skills.
However, Hang Yu also knew from memory that in its frenzy state, the Deep Sea Demon King’s life recovery would stagnate, and it would no longer regain life energy until the frenzy ended.
Hang Yu immediately retreated beyond the attack range.
The berserk Deep Sea Demon King had a fatal flaw.
That was a total loss of judgment ability in combat; as long as there were targets within the attack range, it’d recklessly unleash big attacks, mindlessly consuming spiritual power, and once spiritual power ran dry, the frenzy status would be lifted.
Thus, Hang Yu swiftly retreated to the safety line’s edge, pulling out the sacrificial demon scripture from the storage space, summoning abyss demons one by one into the Deep Sea Demon King’s attack range.
Sending them in, one after another.
Then they’d get eliminated, one by one.
Hang Yu continually repeated the action, each summoned monster deliberately weak, solely serving as bait to attract fire.
The Abyssal Demon Scripture allowed unhindered summoning, as long as Hang Yu still had Spiritual Qi, with no cooldown period.
Summoned abyss demons.
Their primary attack target was originally the summoner.
But since Hang Yu now also carried the abyss race’s aura, the powerful aura of the Deep Sea Demon King ahead of them became the primary target, the abyss demons fearlessly went into the fray one after another.
Five... ten... twenty!
By the time ninety-five had been sent in.
The rampaging deep-sea squid spirit finally seemed depleted.
The colossal range spiritual map cannon had calmed down.
Fortunately, the squid spirit was emptied first, or else Hang Yu would’ve been exhausted.
Even though monster summoning didn’t require a cooldown, it did consume Spiritual Qi. Who could endure it like this? Now the great opportunity lay before him; whether he could bring down this creature was at stake!
He charged back in!
The Deep Sea Demon King’s color reverted.
Life force began recovering but couldn’t bounce back in the short term; it was in a very weakened state.
Hang Yu summoned four Bronze Overlord abyss demons, using them as cannon fodder to draw the Deep Sea Demon King’s focus, while launching a full-force attack in another intensely fierce battle.
At last.
The deep-sea squid spirit couldn’t withstand it anymore.
The last trace of life energy was stripped away.
First petrified, then crumbled, turning into dust.
The Deep Sea Demon King died, releasing a large mass of purple Spiritual Qi from its body, allowing Hang Yu to gain more than fifty thousand Spiritual Qi. The concentration of Spiritual Qi Essence instantly rose to over sixty percent, nearly seventy, equating to the entire grueling cultivation result of a governor-level master over five to eight years.
Shocking?
Not at all.
This was a Level 17 King Monster!
Its level was one higher than Hang Yu’s!
Typically, King Monsters are difficult to solo-kill, generally requiring army sieges, but Hang Yu managed to do so single-handedly, without even using Er Gou!
For one person to absorb high-quality advanced purple Spiritual Qi in bulk.
Thus achieving such an improvement isn’t surprising.
Hang Yu calculated the battle losses, having spent over a dozen advanced blue scrolls on dealing with such a creature, each worth a hundred blue crystals, generally unavailable even if wealthy.
Thus.
Even for solo grinding.
You must have money.
Though consumption was high, it was worth it!
Since the monster dropped over a dozen pieces of spoils, several were purple-colored spheres, though the specifics were unknown, their color alone assured the return of investment.
Meanwhile.
After the Deep Sea Demon King fell.
A vortex appeared at its location.
This vortex seemed like a passage, also like a barrier node; nearby seawater couldn’t enter this area.
Without a doubt.
Passing through this vortex.
Hang Yu could find what he was seeking.
His final goal lay beyond this vortex.
Hang Yu only knew this place had an undersea barrier.
The Relic City initially resided within the undersea barrier, but whether it still existed now was uncertain, the situation inside was completely unknown.
Moreover, considering the time.
He’s been submerged for almost three days.
The Desert Province battle was about to begin, not knowing if he could make it.
