Versatile Sword Cultivator

Chapter 117 – One-on-one battle with the Corpse King BOSS，Part 1

The final wave of the corpse tide was the hardest part of this Secret Realm.

Even the fastest guild in the entire server was stuck here.

The last wave of the Hell-level Corpse King Valley.

A Corpse King at the initial stage of Crystal Formation, accompanied by ten corpse generals at the later stage of Foundation Establishment, appeared before everyone with a terrifying aura and pressure!

The power of this wave of corpses was equivalent to the sum of the previous nine waves.

Just the ten zombies at the later stage of Foundation Establishment were enough to make everyone's scalp tingle.

Not to mention there was also a BOSS at the initial stage of Crystal Formation.

In the Moon Shadow Guild, the highest realm was only the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.

How could they fight this? Normal attacks wouldn't even reduce health unless they hit a weak point.

Jiang Luoyu said bitterly, "It seems we can't clear this unless everyone's level reaches the mid to late stage of Foundation Establishment..."

Lin Jichen, however, said, "That's not necessary. We can still clear it."

"This... can be cleared?" Jiang Luoyu couldn't help but ask.

"You guys distract the ten zombies at the later stage of Foundation Establishment, and I'll handle the Crystal Formation BOSS."

"You want to take on the BOSS alone?"

"Yes, I'll lure the BOSS away. You guys distract the ten elite monsters. Remember, you must protect the front-line body cultivators. Artifact cultivators can die, but body cultivators cannot. Once the body cultivators fall, you'll be wiped out."

Lin Jichen turned to everyone and instructed, "All healers, listen up. You don't need to care about anyone else, not even your guild leader. Focus all your efforts on the body cultivators. According to the final task I assigned you earlier, there must be three healers behind each body cultivator, taking turns to heal!"

The girls in the Moon Shadow Guild were at a loss, seeing the approaching Corpse King and ten elites. Like Jiang Luoyu, they felt it was hopeless.

Lin Jichen's voice was like a beacon of hope, and without hesitation, they chose to follow his instructions.

The healers quickly found their body cultivator targets, grouping around them in threes and fours.

"Body cultivators, your task is the hardest. Don't think about counterattacking. Use all your defensive skills and hold off those ten corpse generals!"

The body cultivator girls nodded solemnly, their expressions serious.

"All artifact cultivators, listen up. Your task is to share the pressure with the body cultivators. You can die, but you must die before the body cultivators, and try to deal as much damage as possible before you do."

"As for the spell cultivators, your only task is to deal damage. Use all your skills as much as possible. The zombies' weak point is their head, so aim your skills there to trigger critical damage."

"This is everyone's final task. Whether we can hold out depends on you. Leave the BOSS to me, and I hope you'll all still be alive when I return."

After speaking, Lin Jichen soared into the sky, walking on air.

"Frost Moon Slash!"

As soon as he approached the Corpse King, Lin Jichen didn't even bother with normal attacks and immediately used a martial arts technique.

The Corpse King probably didn't expect this Foundation Establishment ant to dare attack him. Caught off guard, he was struck on the forehead by the Frost Moon Sword Qi!

"Critical Hit! -1800!"

[Monster: Corpse King]

[Level: BOSS-level]

[Strength: Initial stage of Crystal Formation]

[Health: /]

[Attack: 165]

[Defense: 170]

[Speed: 138]

[Heart Protection: 25]

[Critical: 20]

[Toughness: 6%]

[Poison Resistance: 70%]

[Skills: Copper Skin Iron Bones, Yin Fiend Thunder Palm, Thousand-Year Corpse Poison, Drought Demon Power]

Lin Jichen was quite satisfied with this damage.

His strength was 210, the opponent's defense was 170, which allowed him to deal 400 points of attack damage, with a critical of 40. The opponent's heart protection was 25, allowing him to deal 150 points of critical damage.

The Frost Moon Slash had already reached a small success, with skill damage at 350 points.

Combined with the critical hit, it resulted in a massive damage output.

All the girls behind him were stunned.

"No wonder people on the forum said this guy seems like he's cheating. I'm starting to believe it..." Su Wanling muttered.

"Don't forget, his talent has been ranked first so far. My elemental power is already very strong, but it's only ranked second. His talent must be the key to his high attributes," Jiang Luoyu said.

"But even so, this is too exaggerated. A whole major realm difference, and he can deal 1800 damage with one sword. Is that reasonable? I can't even deal that much damage to a small fry at the initial stage of Qi Refining," Su Wanling said, looking at Lin Jichen and then at her own sword, feeling conflicted.

"Don't forget, each minor realm has free attributes. If his free attributes are high and all points are allocated to strength and speed, combined with him likely being a Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, this damage is completely reasonable," Jiang Luoyu calmly analyzed.

"Sigh, it's so unfair. Why does he get such a good talent, while I only get a 'Swordplay' talent that only increases sword aptitude by 10%..." Su Wanling felt aggrieved.

At first, she thought she had received an amazing talent, but it turned out her talent didn't even make it into the top thousand.

The forums were full of people with 'amazing' talents like hers.

Many people felt the game was unfair, saying everyone should start on equal footing.

Jiang Luoyu covered her mouth and laughed, "Stop complaining. The world is inherently unfair. Some are born poor, some are born rich. Can you change that?"

"The game is the same. I think 'Tale of Immortal' is more like another real world. The difference is, in reality, people start by comparing family conditions, while in 'Tale of Immortal,' people start by comparing talents. It's indeed unfair, but it's very realistic, isn't it?"

Su Wanling thought it made sense. The difference between her and Jiang Luoyu was the same.

Although they had been good friends for many years, Su Wanling came from an ordinary family, while Jiang Luoyu was born into a life more privileged than a princess, being the only daughter of the world's richest family.

That was also unfair.

But despite her ordinary background, Su Wanling worked hard to get into the best university in China and was fortunate enough to become Jiang Luoyu's college classmate.

Because of her diligence and outstanding abilities, she became Jiang Luoyu's assistant.

Now, Su Wanling was also a billionaire, standing in high society and becoming a business elite.

"I get it now, Master Jiang~" Su Wanling playfully teased.

Jiang Luoyu rolled her eyes at her and said, "Stop joking around. Mr. Lin is handling the BOSS alone, we need to contribute as well. Let's get to work."

Su Wanling nodded, temporarily taking over Lin Jichen's position as team leader, and began directing everyone to attack the ten zombies at the later stage of Foundation Establishment.

The ten elites were successfully attracted by the firepower of thousands of people.

Although the BOSS was being held off by Lin Jichen, the ten elite zombies still brought great pressure to the Moon Shadow Guild.

One zombie attacked first, and with just one claw strike, the health bars of two front-line body cultivator girls dropped by a third.

The healers behind them immediately healed, restoring their health.

But as more zombies attacked, the pressure on the body cultivator girls increased dramatically!

Each person's health bar fluctuated like a roller coaster, sometimes nearly empty, sometimes full again.

The battle was extremely tough.

On the other hand, Lin Jichen was handling his side with ease.
