57 100 Times Damage
Chu Bai took out two flame beads.
He was reluctant to use them as he wanted to use them on the monsters that might be on the next floor.
However, he was forced to use them on this floor.
Boom!
-20,000!
“It must be instant.”
Chu Bai then activated the Heavenly Demon Armor’s skill, Heavenly Demon Protection, and charged forward.
[Heavenly Demon Protector: releases the demonic energy within the Heavenly Demon Armor to protect the body. Demonic energy will surround the body for ten seconds and can block a total of 500 damage. When activated, defense will increase by 20%. When the duration ends or the shield is broken, it’ll enter cooldown. Cooldown time: three minutes.]
Before the Aurora Thunderbolt beasts could fly up from the explosion of the flame bead, Chu Bai had already charged over with Sudden Strike.
-1,200!
These monsters were immune to controls, so Chu Bai could not let them fly.
However, Chu Bai could not stop them from flying!
“F*ck!”
Chu Bai gritted his teeth and threw out another flame bead.
-10,000
Two were killed.
There was still the last full HP Aurora Thunderbolt beast.
If there was only one, Chu Bai would not have to worry.
He would not use the last flame bead and the first move of the Ode of the Phoenix-Wind Dancing in the Sky.
Roar!
The Aurora Thunderbolt beast roared in anger, and lightning crackled around its body.
Overload!
Then, it charged toward Chu Bai at an extremely fast speed.
Chu Bai dodged to the right and dodged the attack. The God Slaying Calamity then slashed at the demon beast’s stomach.
-800!
Lil Xue’er’s boost was about to end.
Lil Xue’er stood not far away and watched Chu Bai’s battle nervously. From time to time, she would be paralyzed for three seconds.
She had no combat power at the moment and could only heal Chu Bai.
-400!
-590!
Another attack. It was too fast for Chu Bai to dodge.
A huge damage value appeared above his head.
If his defense was not high, the damage from this attack would have been close to 800.
A Level-15 yellow-gold boss was really something!
The key was that the bosses in the Tower of Trials were much stronger than the ones outside.
Chu Bai was Level 19.
Another Thunder Prison was released. Even though there was time to charge, it was an instant cast, and Chu Bai could not dodge it.
-1,097!
Chu Bai’s health bar was almost empty.
+935
Lil Xue’er used Heavenly Healing to bring Chu Bai’s health bar to a safe level.
Chu Bai heaved a long sigh of relief!
That was because normally, this Thunder Pison would definitely hit. He had received such high damage because the Aurora Thunderbolt beast had an overload bonus. However, if it had used its ultimate skill, Lightning Transformation, which deals five times the damage, then Chu Bai would have been instantly killed!
Now, the Thunder Prison was on a three-minute cooldown, so Chu Bai did not have to worry about being killed instantly.
“Blade Waltz!”
-400, -400, -800, -400, -400!
The damage was not high, but the monster did not have any healing skills.
Time slowly passed.
Chu Bai was draining its HP bit by bit.
With Lil Xue’er around, Chu Bai would not die.
“The three minutes are almost up. I have to trick him into using his ultimate skill. Otherwise, if it uses Lightning Transformation and Thunder Prison, I’ll be killed instantly,” Chu Bai muttered as he held the God Slaying Calamity?
How?
He could only forcefully deal damage.
The Aurora Thunderbolt beast charged at Chu Bai from the sky.
Chu Bai did not move.
Lil Xue’er added Holy moment to Chu Bai, making him even more agile.
Whoosh!
The moment it charged over, Chu Bai jumped onto its body.
“This is a good opportunity!”
Then, Chu Bai held the God Slaying Calamity and stabbed it repeatedly.
-800, -800, -800!
The Aurora Thunderbolt beast continued to fly, trying to shake Chu Bai off.
Chu Bai was shaken off and fell to the ground.
-59!
He had not used his big move yet.
Chu Bai frowned.
The three minutes were almost up.
Could it be that the Aurora Thunderbolt beast was waiting for the Thunder Prison to cool down before using its ultimate skill?
At that moment, the Aurora Thunderbolt beast let out an angry roar and slashed out with its lightning sword.
[Ding. You’ve obtained the ultimate skill, Lightning Transformation.]
[Lightning Transformation: the power will be changed to lightning attacks, and the damage will be increased by five times.]
Chu Bai did not use this ultimate skill because there was only one. This ultimate skill could be used on the next floor if he did not use it now. After using it, he could not use it for ten seconds after leaving the battle.
Even if he used it, he would not have enough damage output to instakill it.
“Five seconds to three minutes.”
Chu Bai had always kept that in mind.
In other words, even after the Thunder Prison’s cooldown was over, the Lightning Transformation would still be on cooldown.
The Aurora Thunderbolt beast charged toward Chu Bai with terrifying speed and strength.
Chu Bai held his sword and took a deep breath.
He was fully focused and could not afford to be careless.
Whoosh!
Chu Bai dodged the attack from the sky with a ‘Z’, then quickly turned around.
“Triple Flame Slash!”
-800, -800, -800!
These monsters were immune to the knock-up effect. After it ended, Chu Bai could only pull back.
Without the boost from Overload, even though the damage was explosive, its speed was not particularly exaggerated. Chu Bai could still dodge it.
The attack missed, and the Aurora Thunderbolt beast shot up to a height of nearly 15 meters.
In the air, Chu Bai had no way to deal with it.
After that…
It was forming the Thunder Prison!
What should Chu Bai do?
At a height of 15 meters, Chu Bai’s Blade Waltz skill could not hit it.
At that moment, he was having a mental storm!
Lil Xue’er’s invincibility?
No need!
He would give it a try himself.
Lil Xue’er did not receive Chu Bai’s order. She was very anxious and wanted to release her skills to protect her master.
The Heavenly Demon Armor’s Heavenly Demon Protection was immediately released after its cooldown was over.
It could block 500 damage, and at the same time, its defense had increased by 20%. Even if the Aurora Thunderbolt beast’s damage increased by five times, it should not be able to kill him instantly, but it was still hard to say.
However, this was just Chu Bai’s last resort to be on the safe side. His real goal was to avoid the skill.
Whoosh!
Chu Bai’s speed instantly increased.
[Haste: releases the power of Flaming Battle Boots. Effect: increases movement speed by 50% and leaves a trail of flames in the path of movement. All enemies touched by the flames will receive 100 damage for 10 seconds. Cooldown time: two minutes.]
This was the Flaming Battle Boots’ supplementary skill.
With the help of his increased speed, Chu Bai charged toward a rock in front of him.
With the first jump, he landed on the rock. With the second jump, he jumped up from the stone.
A height of five meters was enough!
“Blade Waltz!”
Whoosh!
Chu Bai’s figure disappeared.
The moment he disappeared, the Thunder Prison appeared where he was mere seconds ago.
-800, -800, -800, -80,000!
[Ding. You’ve triggered Divine Slaughter, dealing 10,000% of the damage.]
The 0.1% chance of dealing 100 times the damage was successfully triggered, clearing the monster’s health bar.
[Ding. You’ve successfully cleared the abyss-level Tower of Trials’ fourth floor. All four basic attributes +5.]
Chu Bai landed on the ground!
He heaved a long sigh of relief.
Lil Xue’er ran to Chu Bai’s side and rubbed her head against Chu Bai’s legs.
Chu Bai knelt down and stroked her gently.
“That was too dangerous. Fortunately, the distance was enough, or else you would have wasted your invincibility skill. Once your invincibility skill is wasted, I don’t think there’s any possibility of clearing the trial.”
With a 12-hour cooldown, Chu Bai had a feeling that the invincibility skill, Light of the Heavenly Fox, would be very useful on the last floor.
He quickly recovered his mana and gave Lil Xue’er some mana potions to recover.
Whoosh!
The light flashed.
The two of them disappeared again.
[Ding. You’ve arrived on the fifth floor of the abyss-level Tower of Trials.]
