Chapter 993: Holy Damage
Yun originally used the Wings of Protection to shield his entire body, but the semi-transparent spear pierced directly through, stabbing into him.
The spear, like the Undead Knight, had no physical form and could bypass the Wings of Protection’s physical barrier!
Yun only felt a chill in his chest, his spine tingled, and goosebumps rose on his skin. It was a peculiar sensation. Though he wasn’t physically injured or bleeding, he clearly sensed danger. It was as if this strike aimed at his soul, not his body.
However, he was in a 20-second invincible state, so even though the spear hit him, it did not cause any damage.
Almost simultaneously, Yun swung the Wrath of the Godslayer at lightning speed towards the Undead Knight who was within reach!
This time, Yun’s movement was too fast, and they were too close; even the Soul Warhorse couldn’t manage a blink in time, and was hard hit by the Wrath of the Godslayer!
"Sizzle~" Instantly, the Wrath of the Godslayer cleaved into one of the Undead Knight’s arms without any hindrance!
This attack didn’t hit something solid, there was no feedback of force, like he was chopping into cotton. The powerful inertia pushed Yun forward, causing him to slightly lose his balance.
"It’s useless, I don’t suffer any physical attacks... Ah!" The Undead Knight wanted to taunt Yun, but only managed half a sentence before letting out a horrified scream.
White smoke suddenly surged from the place where the Undead Knight was cut by the Wrath of the Godslayer, and his semi-transparent body began to dissipate with the wind, as if melted by the Wrath of the Godslayer.
Terror-stricken, the Undead Knight squeezed the horse’s belly, instantly teleporting to a distance, staring fearfully at Yun’s Wrath of the Godslayer.
"Didn’t you say it was useless?" Yun stared into the Undead Knight’s eyes, asking rhetorically.
It turned out, he attacked the Undead Knight up close not to harm it with physical attacks, but because his attack included some holy damage!
And holy damage is the nemesis of all Demon Clan!
Yun’s first Nefalem talent, called the Body of the Demon God, added 10% holy damage to his normal attacks!
The "Martial Saint" title he won in a tournament had an attribute that added 10% holy damage to his normal attacks!
After evolving into the Ancient Giants form recently, all his normal attacks in any form carried 30% holy damage!
All of this holy damage combined to a whopping 50%!
His previous normal attack, which seemed plain and uneventful, actually contained up to 50% holy damage!
When this holy damage struck the Undead Knight, it was like a hot branding iron hitting ice, directly melting away a part of the body.
This was his reliance in contending with the Undead Knight!
Prior swings of the Wings of Death and those few waves of the Windfire Blade were mere harassment tactics. The Wings of Death worked excellently against multiple foes, quickly absorbing rage to replenish consumption. But when facing a single enemy, its effect was quite limited, and his rage value couldn’t be sustained for long.
But holy damage, attached to normal attacks, could be used continuously, and it could also absorb rage.
Now the Undead Knight became very cautious, no longer daring to underestimate Yun, and with a heavier gaze, regarded Yun as an equal opponent.
The Undead Knight squeezed his legs, urging the Soul Warhorse to teleport once again!
In the blink of an eye, it suddenly appeared behind Yun, thrusting the spear viciously into his body.
Yun swung backhand with an axe!
The Soul Warhorse vanished instantly, reappearing in front of Yun, the spear once again stabbing into Yun’s chest.
Just when Yun wanted to counterattack, the Undead Knight teleported in another direction.
This way, the Soul Warhorse repeatedly chain teleported, appearing from various directions around Yun from time to time.
The Undead Knight’s spear attacked him from tricky angles, puncturing his body repeatedly.
Yun was perpetually in a passive position, and every counterattack failed to hit the Undead Knight, always a step too slow.
If this continued, once the invincible state wore off, he would start to suffer damage.
The Undead Knight quickly regained confidence, sneering as he attacked, "Just now I was careless, you managed to succeed by chance, but now I’m prepared, you won’t hit me."
As he spoke, his voice emanated from different directions with the Soul Warhorse’s teleports! A word spoken here, the next from another side, elusive and otherworldly.
Yun slightly furrowed his brow, the Soul Warhorse was exceedingly agile, without breaking the chain teleports, he couldn’t even touch the hem of the Undead Knight’s garment.
And the soul warhorse teleported so many times without any intention to stop, seemingly without a time limit, impossible to wait for its skills to end.
Huang Yi flicked his palm and took something from the storage ring.
It was a black rope, covered with dense scales all over. The ends of the rope were two snake heads, hissing with their tongues out, like the head and tail of a snake each having a head, full of spirit.
This was the binding magic rope, obtained by Huang Yi after defeating the Fallen General recently. It can bind the wings of the target and render them unable to flap and gain distance!
Huang Yi flicked his hand and threw the binding magic rope into the air.
"Hiss~" The snake tongues of the binding magic rope’s two snake heads accelerated their frequency, slithering in the air and winding towards the soul warhorse.
The binding magic rope possesses automatic tracking ability, and even if the soul warhorse blinks continuously, it cannot dodge its tracking.
Soon, the binding magic rope caught up with the soul warhorse, firmly tying its wings, quickly binding them in a circle, with the two snake heads biting each other, not loosening their grip.
The speed of the soul warhorse suddenly dropped sharply, and its chain teleportation ability abruptly stopped. It seemed to be wearing a heavy shackle, only able to gallop forward in the void.
"This rope...is it the binding magic rope?! How do you have our demon clan’s treasure!" The undead knight recognized that binding magic rope, quickly stretched out his hand, and grabbed the binding magic rope, pulling forcefully.
The soul warhorse also struggled vigorously, flapping its wings, with the muscles on its flanks bulging, gathering all its strength to break free.
But this was of no use; the two snake heads of the binding magic rope kept biting hard, stubbornly refusing to let go.
Huang Yi took the initiative to charge forward, started to counterattack, swinging the wrath of the Godslayer, landing heavy blows on the undead knight’s body.
This time, the roles were reversed, the undead knight found it difficult to dodge Huang Yi’s attacks, getting hit repeatedly. Each strike caused a puff of white smoke to rise, indicating that part of its evil soul was corroded away.
Meanwhile, Huang Yi filled his rage value to the brim with each attack.
"Sizzle~" Then, the undead knight’s arm was struck again by the wrath of the Godslayer, emitting white smoke, and a part was immediately burned off. A few more hits and the entire arm might be chopped off.
"A thousand soldiers and horses! Come and protect me!" The undead knight raised his long spear, thrusting towards the sky, shouting loudly, his majestic voice resounding through the clouds, accompanied by echoes.
As the words fell, a surge of black energy suddenly churned in the sky, swiftly wriggling, evolving into thousands of galloping warhorses, each carrying soldiers wielding spears, great swords, and long halberds, charging uniformly towards Huang Yi!
These thousand soldiers and horses weren’t semi-transparent; they had physical entities, just like living knights.
"Boom, boom, boom!" Countless hooves trampled in the void, yet it felt like they were trampling on the ground, producing a rolling sound of hooves, causing the entire space to tremble slightly.
The soldiers’ weapons and armor reflected a sinister light, converging into an iron tide!
And at this moment, Huang Yi’s invincible time finally ended!
He could no longer ignore these attacks!
He suddenly found himself as if on a battlefield, facing the impact and trampling of thousands of soldiers and horses alone.
"Cleanse the Royals!" Huang Yi directly consumed all his rage value, unleashing his level 270 divine-level class skill.
Instantly, an irresistible shockwave swept from Huang Yi, spreading to all directions! Forming a repulsive energy field with a radius of a kilometer!
The tide of thousands of soldiers and horses initially charged down from the clouds, momentum rolling, but after this shockwave hit, they were immediately overturned, retreating upward!
All their levels were lower than Huang Yi’s, suffering from the Cleanse the Royals skill, they all would be repelled a thousand meters away, unable to get any closer.
The undead knight’s skill was rendered useless again!
Huang Yi calmly raised the wrath of the Godslayer and attacked once more!
"Sizzle~" The undead knight’s arm emitted white smoke again, another portion melted away.
Huang Yi’s attack points were very precise, targeting the undead knight’s arm each time, continuously enlarging the melting area of that part, eventually able to sever its entire arm.
The undead knight grimaced in pain, fiercely stabbing with the long spear, penetrating the Wings of Protection effortlessly, piercing into Huang Yi’s body.
The Injury Delay talent immediately took effect, delaying the hit for three seconds before bearing its result. But after three seconds, Huang Yi’s health points would be reduced by 15%!
No longer invincible, he would finally start taking damage!
