BXBX NOVEL Chapter 389: Sharp Formation
The demon from the Abyss raised its right hand, seizing the long arrow. The black aura twined around the arrow, instantly turning it into ashes;
Turning its head, the demon saw a woman clad in bright red armor, bending her bow to string another arrow, aiming at it. Behind this woman, thirty warriors had already formed a battle formation, on full alert.
“Humans, are you provoking the Abyssal Clan?” The demon of the Abyss showed a scornful look on its face, with a hint of mockery in its eyes directed at Luo Tianyu.
“You’re all talk; you’re just a Lord-level BOSS. I’m about to beat the BOSS!” Luo Tianyu shouted, releasing her grip on her right hand, letting loose the long arrow that shot towards the demon from the Abyss;
“This level of attack is barely a tickle to me.” The demon of the Abyss sneered, staring at the incoming arrow, making no attempt whatsoever to dodge it;
From that previous strike, the demon had already gauged Luo Tianyu’s offensive damage and consequently dismissed her as a threat, instead turning towards Song Jian and striding towards him.
In its eyes, only Song Jian was its real opponent, and more importantly, Song Jian’s body was related to the demon-hosting ceremony it was planning to conduct and was naturally of great importance to it.
Just after taking two steps forward, the demon from the Abyss heard a sharp whistling sound from behind. An alarm bell went off in its head and as it prepared to turn and defend, that seemingly insignificant long arrow suddenly emitted a dazzling golden light, accelerating rapidly, and like a streak of lightning piercing into the back of its head;
Puff-
A spray of purple-red blood gushed out, and the demon’s robust body shuddered before collapsing face-first onto the ground. A tremendous critical hit of more than six hundred points of damage floated up from above its head.
“Humph, naive!” Luo Tianyu snorted coldly, putting away her bow and arrow, her face displaying a slightly abnormal pallor.
The previous arrow was a regular attack; Luo Tianyu purposely appeared weaker. But this arrow was the warrior skill “Shadowstrike Kill Arrow,” one of the few warrior skills that Luo Tianyu could execute without the assistance of a warhorse.
At the moment the arrow was fired, the power was not great, but during its flight, its might and speed rapidly and geometrically increased and became formidable.
By the time the enemy noticed this move, it had already missed the best chance to dodge and would suffer immense damage;
Despicable humans!” The Abyssal giant monster roared, crawling up from the ground. Clutching the arrow lodged in his head, it yanked it out with force, threw it to the ground and looked at Luo Tianyu, its eyes filled with rage. “Formation!” Luo Tianyu raised her Square Sky Halberd and commanded loudly.
“Kill!” Thirty pikemen shouted in unison, quickly moving into position and forming a pike-head-shaped formation in no time.
“Sharp Formation, all those in the formation, Attack +30, Penetration Damage +3, attacking enemies head-on, adding the Effect of Armor Break +5;”
The “tip of the spear” in the Sharp Formation was Luo Tianyu herself, gripping her halberd tightly and striding forward towards the demon from the Abyss. She and the thirty pikemen behind her were all connected by the formation, all of them enveloped by a thin white glow;;
“Kill, kill, kill!”
Follower pikemen charging behind Luo Tianyu shouted in unison.
Luo Tianyu was irate at this moment. If she had a warhorse, she could’ve led a charge at the front, greatly increasing the power of the Sharp Formation, a cavalry and infantry combination formation. But now, it could only be used as an infantry formation, reducing its power a bit.
Thanks to Luo Tianyu’s formation, Song Jian finally found a brief respite. After quickly downing several healing potions, Song Jian’s Vitality Points recovered by over two hundred points, bringing it just over half.
Seeing Luo Tianyu charging towards the demon from the Abyss, Song Jian also gritted his teeth, wielding the Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword and pounced towards the demon from the Abyss.
“Immortal Sword Body, activate!”
A dazzling golden light enveloped Song Jian, as eight long sword shadows, like guardians, slowly swirled around him;
Song Jian’s strength instantly increased by a large margin, and golden Sword Qi was slashing towards the Abyss Demon, continuously rending deep traces on the ground.
With the boost of the Immortal Sword Body, Song Jian’s damage sharply escalated, countless Sword Qi slashed deep wounds on the Abyss Demon’s body, letting purple-blood spurt out. The Abyss demon let out a series of mournful screams, its transparent flames flickering unstably, its Vitality Points dropping continuously;
Sharp Formation, attack!” Luo Tianyu also took the opportunity to rush in front of the Abyss Demon, swinging the Square Sky Halberd in his hand, and slashing at the Abyss Demon.
Boom!
With a loud explosion, the Square Sky Halberd fiercely cut into the chest of the Abyss Demon, instantly hacking its enormous body, a damage points of over five hundred appeared above its head.
“Unforgivable!” The Abyss Demon roared, standing up from a pile of rubble, numerous black flames emanated from its body, and in the ground below him, areas continuously emitted black breath.
“Withering Field!” As the Abyss Demon roared, countless ghostly screams echoed around him, and the area continuously radiating black breath began to expand;
At this time, Luo Tianyu was leading thirty spear-wielding soldiers, turned their heads and rushed towards the Lord of the Abyss, in an instant, they charged into the Withering Field of the Abyss Demon;
Gusts of cold wind blew, a large section of the ground emerged covered in black cold breath, these black breaths were like claws, once attached to the legs of the spearmen, it immediately clamped tightly, attempting to trap them in this region;
For a moment, Luo Tianyu and the thirty spearmen seemed to have fallen into a mire, their movement speeds greatly reduced.
At the same time, as time passed, Luo Tianyu felt the power within his body being sucked away bit by bit, so much so he was even finding it difficult to hold the Square Sky Halberd in his hand.
Many of the spearmen’s faces started to show shallow wrinkles, as if they had aged seven or eight years;
Song Jian also charged into the Withering Field, but his body intermittently flickered with a golden light, resisting the magic invasion of the Withering Field, the black breath under his feet avoided him like the plague, moving far away from his surroundings;
”You…you’re immune to the erosion of Abyssal Power…” The Abyss Demon showed a surprised look in its eyes, watching in disbelief as Song Jian rushed in front of him and swung his sword at its neck.
Broken Wing Dance!
A white light blossomed on the Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword, the Abyss Demon threw a punch to block it, “bang” a great force passed through, the Abyss Demon was pushed back a step;
“Impossible, how could your power…” The Abyss demon’s face showed a terrified expression, it discovered that Song Jian’s strength was abruptly larger than itself, which filled it with a hint of fear.
“Bang!” The second strike came, slashing at him. The Abyss demon felt a piercing pain in its arms; Song Jian cut off a large chunk of flesh from its right arm, revealing the purple-golden skeleton within.
The Level 3 Immortal Sword Body not only enhances Song Jian’s attack damage, but also adds seven points to all of Song Jian’s attributes. With these seven points of strength, Song Jian’s strength attribute has now reached forty points. No matter how strong the Abyss Demon is, it’s just a level twenty lord-level boss, its strength attribute hasn’t even exceeded thirty points. At this moment, Song Jian’s power is completely overpowering it;
“Die!” Song Jian leaped high into the air, like a hawk swooping on a rabbit he attacked the Abyss Demon from the air. This sword fiercely slashed at the Abyss Demon’s shoulder. A power of the five elements knocked the Abyss Demon into the air, momentarily losing control of its body.
