Chapter 495: Lin Huang versus Yu Wenbin
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After the Darkscythe Apparition completely formed in mid-air, its blue eyes slowly moved downwards, fixing its gaze on Lin Huang.
"Kill him!" Yu Wenbin's eyes flashed with a trace of fury and he instructed the Combat Soul mercilessly.
The Darkscythe Apparition's blue eyes glowed brightly, accompanied by a low growl. The black scythe in its white bony hand suddenly moved, silently streaking across the air and producing a ripple that could be vaguely seen in mid-air.
At almost the same time that he wielded his scythe, Lin Huang could feel danger aiming for the right of his torso. There were no traces before that but suddenly, a black crescent that was more than ten meters long appeared and slashed at Lin Huang's waist.
Fortunately, Lin Huang sensed that something was wrong in the first place with his Territory skill. He took a step back and immediately retreated, barely managing to dodge the attack.
The black crescent-shaped impact energy vibrated. All the trees that were more than 10 kilometers away collapsed, turning into black carbide.
Lin Huang's pupils dilated as he saw this.
"Master, the Darkscythe Apparition is a monster that contains the blood of death. Although the concentration is low and it isn't considered a god's blood, its attack is capable of engulfing one's life. By attacking a weaker opponent, it's able to overwhelm a large amount of Life Power from its opponent. Despite not being to subdue the Life Power of a stronger opponent, the wound it inflicts is hardly curable and it causes dissipation of one's Life Power. It's best to avoid being struck by such a monster."
"Okay." Lin Huang nodded and at the same time, he sensed a peculiar wave coming from behind him.
Lin Huang did not turn back. He moved a step forward and disappeared.
Just as he disappeared, a black beam appeared. It resembled an electric shear that caused a black, bald patch more than 10 kilometers long in the forest.
As he managed to avoid two of its attacks, Yu Wenbin squinted his eyes and instructed, "Increase the attack frequency. I don't think that he'll be able to dodge all of them!"
The black glow of the blade appeared in mid-air, and its attack frequency was at least twice as fast. However, Lin Huang was like a slippery loach as he managed to complete the dodge before the black glow struck him.
Yu Wenbin noticed that Lin Huang managed to avoid those attacks without looking directly at them.
He wondered, "Does he have any prediction abilities or skills like the Territory skill?"
When he could confirm that, he knew that none of the abilities that he possessed would affect Lin Huang.
"Be it his prediction ability or the Territory skill, the distance within which he can perform a dodge will be limited." Yu Wenbin grinned and secretly contacted the Combat Soul, "Darkscythe, unleash Luna Kill!"
"The attack has stopped…" After dodge for the last time, Lin Huang noticed that the opponent had stopped attacking.
"Master, be careful. He must have discovered that the effect of Luna Slash can do no harm to you. Perhaps, he'll switch to a regional attack like Luna Kill. Luna Kill can automatically detect living beings around it and it will launch attacks in the form of mist. It'll be like moonlight whereby everywhere is pervasive. It is useless to dodge such an attack since anywhere within 10 kilometers of its range will come under attack."
"Understand!" As he listened to Bloody's introduction, he raised his head and gazed at the Combat Soul.
In mid-air, the Darkscythe Apparition was quickly performing hand seals. In just a short while, complicated sigils were formed in mid-air, resulting in a black imprint. It extended its hand and placed the scythe in front of it. The black imprint seemed to embed with the scythe, both of them merging with each other perfectly.
The crescent-shaped scythe instantly became a black mirror that could be used for the exchange of sigils.
The Darkscythe Apparition held the handle of the mirror with both of its hands and black Life Power gushed into the mirror like a broken dam.
Lin Huang felt that the threat was near and at almost the same time, he activated his Dark Shield. The Dark Shield resembled a perfect dark sphere and Lin Huang was completely enveloped by it.
Just as the Dark Shield was created, a massive amount of black mist was produced out of nowhere, surrounding the Dark Shield and completely shrouding it in the black mist.
In the instant when the black mist and the Dark Shield touched each other, a hissing sound was produced like water droplets falling on hot ironware.
Lin Huang could clearly feel that the black mist outside was a very strong acidic layer that attempted to erode the Dark Shield which acted as a protective layer.
Despite the fact that the opponent's attack was all-pervasive, the strength of the attack was very limited. It was far from capable of breaking through the defense layer of the Dark Shield. Instead, it constantly consumed the Life Power transmitted out from Lin Huang's body that was used to support the Dark Shield.
Lin Huang calculated the rate of his Life Power consumption. Based on the opponent's rate of consumption, he could support the Dark Shield for at least three days, given that he did not use any Life Power Refill Cards to restore his Life Power.
"Such an attack doesn't require a large amount of Life Power from me, but it must consume a large portion of his Life Power." Lin Huang looked at Yu Wenbin through the Dark Shield. Since it was covered by the dark mist, his vision was somehow affected. However, Lin Huang had incredible eyesight as he could still see that Yu Wenbin was angry. Obviously, he did not expect that Lin Huang would have such a defense skill.
"Damned little brat!" Yu Wenbin cursed angrily. This hit had consumed almost half the amount of Life Power he had, yet his opponent managed to dodge all the attacks with the protective layer he used.
"It's not going to work if it continues. The wave of the battle has spread out and it must have attracted the attention of the Vice President of Martial Hunter College. He will arrive really soon." Yu Wenbin pacified himself. He then looked at Wu Fa and realized that he had not stirred. He could sense that Wu Fa was still alive, but he must have probably fainted. "He's such a burden, and it has now become a one versus two battle. The probability of winning the battle is almost zero…"
Yu Wenbin wanted to retreat.
Lin Huang noticed that Yu Wenbin turned his head to look at Wu Fa. He could instantly guess that he wanted to take Wu Fa and flee.
"Hey, there's nothing special about your attack even though you've prepared for so long," Lin Huang insulted again, "I was looking forward to something powerful, but it seems like nothing to me! If all the Saint elders are of your level, I'm really worried about the future development of the Saint!"
"I think that it's because your God isn't strong enough. That's why the abilities of the Saint members are weak as well. Your God is utter rubbish. What did your God give you even though you serve him every day? It's better for you to have faith in me. I promise that I'll give you good food everyday…" Lin Huang knew that whenever he mentioned their God, his opponent would be triggered and would lose his rationality.
"I'll send you to your grave!" Yu Wenbin could no longer bear it anymore.
