Chapter 888 - 883: True Intent Prototype of the Dusk Blade

Chapter 888: Chapter 883: True Intent Prototype of the Dusk Blade

The elite template natives are stronger, with composite mystic level.

But they can’t compare to the Awakened major generals.

Most of the Awakened major generals have forged their own paths, comprehending the "True Intent Prototype" between composite mystics and true intent!

The difference in mental realm cultivation level affects the combat power amplitude of ordinary and elite natives. Although they have a solid base panel, their damage multiplier and skill mechanism are inferior to the Awakened.

Therefore, in the arduous "Control Points" battle, where Crimson Luthor fought several successive matches without rest, his energy recovery kept pace with the consumption rate, gradually grinding down the natives’ twenty thousand life value points one after another.

However, at Crimson Luthor’s speed, reaching the tenth opponent would definitely take more than an hour.

Bai Pu swept his gaze to observe the fights in the other large circles.

The rules of the Red Blood Arena were well designed. Currently, standing in the ten large circles are elite natives and Awakened major generals, but regardless of their identity, they are truly powerful, with a combat power gap from the other slaves!

Except for two or three circles that haven’t had a fixed "reigning champion," the reigning champions in other circles have won several consecutive matches without being dethroned.

However, based on Bai Pu’s calculations, it would take these reigning champions more than two or three hours, or even four to five hours, to win ten consecutive matches, posing no threat to his goal of being first in speed challenge.

If one wins too quickly, like Bai Pu, no one dares to challenge, resulting in a slow accumulation of victories.

If one wins slowly, the battle itself consumes too much time.

Bai Pu being the first to stand out, with a strategy of swiftly defeating the elite native "Iron Spine" Balrog and instantly killing the Awakened Major General Jin Yang, proved wise. He now sits firmly in the position of power.

"Have these people accepted reality? Are they content with just obtaining gladiator qualification?"

Bai Pu squinted, recalling someone who attempted to delay his victory streak time, and became secretly vigilant.

No matter what, Bai Pu held onto one thought:

Anyone who dares to enter my circle, I will mercilessly kick them out in the shortest time, accepting nothing less than bloodshed.

This is the joy of crushing with formidable strength, and the great trend most valued by the wise.

Bai Pu understands schemes and plots, but so far no adversary has required him to win through unconventional means! When one possesses overwhelming power, the best approach is direct confrontation.

Time passed second by second.

The "1-hour no challenge" time required for Bai Pu to secure first place had almost elapsed, with only a dozen minutes remaining.

Meanwhile, in other large circles, the fastest reigning champion had only won six consecutive matches.

Suddenly, an Awakened Major General approached Bai Pu’s circle.

Bai Pu squinted over, eyes like a beast hunting its prey.

"Gangxin, let me introduce myself. I am ’Dusk Blade,’ from the ’Night Shadow’ organization. The reigning champion in the circle next to yours is my team’s leader, Lord Crimson."

This Major General named "Dusk Blade" did not enter the circle but communicated with Bai Pu telepathically.

Bai Pu glanced at Lord "Crimson" in the adjacent circle, the reigning champion who had won six consecutive matches and was currently fighting the seventh, instantly understanding.

"If you’re here to persuade me to give way for your Lord Crimson in the speed challenge, there’s no need to discuss. I don’t think you’re that influential."

Bai Pu also communicated telepathically, speaking coldly.

Dusk Blade faltered, his prepared words stifled. He sighed and said:

"Our Night Shadow organization’s strength is not much less than Burning Ash. Since Gangxin has a grudge with Burning Ash, why not sacrifice a little profit to gain an ally for Cyan Dragon 287?"

Bai Pu closed his eyes, saying nothing.

Dusk Blade moved slowly towards Bai Pu, earnestly persuading:

"If Gangxin agrees, why not join our Crimson team? After this ascension plane ends, Lord Crimson will surely persuade the organization to ally with Cyan Dragon 287! Also, the rewards for Gangxin will be exceptionally generous — Silver Dragon Coins, Spirit Crystals, or top-grade Evolver equipment are negotiable—"

Whoosh!

Just as Dusk Blade stepped into the circle, he was met with a cold gleam.

Bai Pu thrust his spear without hesitation, the intense killing intent was nearly tangible.

Dusk Blade’s face fell as he swiftly dodged. Through this determined thrust, he understood Gangxin’s nature—

Decisive and ruthless, pressing forward!

Possessing the Fifth Grade "Dusk Blade’s Edge" True Intent Prototype, Dusk Blade mastered both Shadow Mystics and Space Cutting Mystics, his power surpassing Jin Yang.

He dodged with all his might, his figure resembling a shadow, constantly opening spatial rifts to escape into the void.

Bai Pu extended his hand, releasing dense black mist that formed a hemispherical enclosed space, enveloping both himself and Dusk Blade.

Four Elemental Combined Secret Skill—War Fog!

War Fog obscured Dusk Blade’s vision and perception.

Dusk Blade could not see where Bai Pu’s spear was coming from, making it impossible to escape into the void in time to avoid the attack—

It’s worth noting that escaping into the void requires a moment of preparation.

Bang!

A metallic clang resounded. Unable to evade in time, Dusk Blade could only parry with his short sword.

Parrying a long spear with a short sword.

Especially under a significant power attribute disparity.

Inevitably, Dusk Blade was repelled. Bai Pu’s long spear continued to thrust, like a precise spinning wheel, forcing Dusk Blade back, making his blocking movements increasingly distorted.

Bai Pu thrusted again, leaving no room to dodge. Dusk Blade gritted his teeth and deployed a life-saving skill—Formless Clone!

Stabbed Dusk Blade dissipated into a shadow.

The true Dusk Blade, using Bai Pu’s spear’s trajectory and the spear shaft’s length, accurately judged Bai Pu’s position, and slipped behind Bai Pu!

The short sword, emitting deadly red light, swung at Bai Pu’s nape.

Dusk Blade’s Edge True Intent Prototype—Sky Splitter Thrust!

This skill must be activated behind the target, striking the spinous process at the upper end of the target’s neck, causing temporary dizziness.

Bai Pu had a [Four Symbols Appearance] shield, effective against physical control skills.

Bai Pu knew this, and so did Dusk Blade.

The "space cutting" special effect of the True Intent Prototype Skill [Sky Splitter Thrust] could temporarily "remove" the space at Bai Pu’s nape, effectively attacking Bai Pu directly by temporarily removing the shield in that area!

This is the essence of "Sky Splitter."

After stunning Bai Pu, Dusk Blade, as a close-combat assassin, could use a series of skills like sky splitter kidney strike and backstab to accumulate chain attack points while each chain attack amplified damage with the "vulnerable" effect!

Finally, finish with the Finishing Skill [Shadow Split] to complete the kill!
