Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest-Chapter 491 - 87 Victory!

Chapter 491: Chapter 87 Victory!

Xie Ruoxi had played many games and had rich experience in dealing with difficult levels.

If you were playing an FPS game, what would you do if your shooting was too bad to defeat the BOSS?

Ding dong! Activate the one-shot kill/super damage mode!

What if your aim is still off and you can’t hit the target?

Ding dong! Activate the auto-aim/full-screen insta-kill mode!

As for the scores achieved using a cheat tool, Xie Ruoxi didn’t care at all whether they were really her own.

...

I painstakingly took the time to download the cheat tool and had to specifically click the mouse to activate it. Isn’t that similar to those who spend time finding strategies and honing their skills to get past levels? It’s all hard work!

At this moment, Miss Ruoxi, held by Yan Yu, once again found the joy she used to feel when using a cheat tool to strategize and defeat difficult bosses she couldn’t overcome before.

Without needing to aim carefully, a massive thunderbolt was launched, hitting the demon monk directly in the back and instantly shattering his body.

To be precise, it was his upper body that was shattered.

The demon monk’s head, left hand, right hand, left leg, and right leg turned directly into dust with his upper body and immediately burst apart, transforming into five dark shadows, each escaping in different directions.

Yan Yu waved Xie Ruoxi’s arm, firing two more massive thunderbolts, shattering both the demon monk’s hands.

The head and legs took the opportunity to run even further, speeding towards the exit of the great hall. Chen Lingyun had anticipated this and was waiting with Black and White Impermanence on each side, exerting Nether Light and chains to bind the demon monk’s legs, which had morphed into shadows of black light.

Lin Ning, although unprepared, was the quickest to react among everyone. She hastened to guide the Green Bamboo Sword Light to intercept the remaining head.

The demon monk’s head, turned into a shadow, dared not tangle with her. Meanwhile, Yan Yu was taking steps of Cloud Dividing Eight Trigrams, holding Xie Ruoxi and flashing forward to close the distance, supplementing the legs with two more thunders… leaving only the head!

It hastily evaded the pursuit of the Green Bamboo Sword, almost flying out of the Great Hero Treasure Hall, when suddenly a dog’s head popped up in front of him.

A dog’s head?

One of the Five Ghosts controlled by Chen Lingyun had run outside to notify the Huofeng Team to keep their distance and then returned to hide at the entrance of the hall. Seeing the demon monk’s head approaching as a shadow, mistaking it for some lonely ghost, it leaped up and gulped it down with a snap.

This doesn’t taste right!

Yin Ghost and Heavenly Demon are incompatible; the big dog felt a tumult in its stomach and hurriedly vomited it out. The black light fell to the ground, rolled a few times, and was just about to rise and fly away when Yan Yu, holding Xie Ruoxi, launched the final massive thunderbolt and finally shattered it to pieces, ending its struggle.

However, everyone was not ready to relax. They continued staring wide-eyed at one another, peering around for a moment, fearing that a demon monk’s master might suddenly appear from somewhere, saying something horrifying like “How dare you kill my disciple, let this old monk teach you a lesson.”

Of course, that didn’t happen.

They then saw the Colored Glaze Lamp left behind by the demon monk, now shattered on the ground, leaving behind a round base with a flame the size of a rice grain flickering unfadingly.

Yan Yu went over to check with his Divine Sense for a moment and announced:

“This is the nerve center of the Mysterious Realm.”

“Awesome!” The girls finally relaxed completely, truly at ease.

Lin Ning rushed over to hug Su Yunjin, excitedly exclaiming:

“We won, we won! We actually won!”

Su Yunjin, her True Yuan nearly exhausted, was having difficulty even standing and could only lean on Lin Ning’s arm, crying tears of joy:

“Yes, we won.”

“Weren’t those massive thunderbolts I fired super awesome!” Xie Ruoxi also ran up to Zhao Yuanzhen to brag, “The team leader asked me to reserve capacity for eight True Yuan shots, but I only used six and it was over!”

“Hmph, mediocre,” Zhao Yuanzhen yawned, but he was actually feeling proud inside.

If it had been the old her alone encountering this demon monk, she would have run as far away as possible immediately. But now, she had taken down the enemy’s leader with her team, feeling a sense of accomplishment like “I was awesome along with everyone else.”

Chen Lingyun watched everyone celebrating with a smile and secretly transmitted a message to Yan Yu:

“How about that?”

“Nothing special,” Yan Yu replied. “It was just Lin Ning suddenly mastering the Sword-Human Unity that surprised me a little. As for the victory, that was expected… We won the last time in the battle of the Secret Realm of Li Palace too, and I didn’t see you guys this happy.”

“Which gives you a greater sense of accomplishment, defeating an opponent of the same level or a higher level boss?” Chen Lingyun smiled and continued, “Besides, last time Mei Yingxue, we couldn’t interfere at all. We had to let you take all the glory alone; this time, however, we could fight alongside you, even just feeling involved was worlds apart.”

“Yes, yes, yes,” Yan Yu responded noncommittally, “Then you all continue to push yourselves to become stronger, and try not to be left behind by me again…you go refine the central nerve of the Mysterious Realm.”

Chen Lingyun walked toward the broken lamp and then transmitted her voice saying:

“Compared to this Mysterious Realm Gatekeeper, the issues exposed during the battle with that demon just now are even more serious.”

“Indeed,” Yan Yu admitted without hiding it, “It’s good to discover problems early.”

“I look forward to seeing how you’ll solve their issues~” Chen Lingyun said cheerfully.

“Definitely not by heeding your suggestion to start a harem,” Yan Yu said coldly.

He turned his head to look at the gaggle of girls huddled together; Lin Ning was animatedly recounting the previous scene, Su Yunjin was smiling broadly, Xie Ruoxi was adding remarks with high spirits, and Zhao Yuanzhen was pretending to be indifferent but actually nodding in satisfaction…

Involvement, right?

That’s what a team is. The stronger the character, the more responsibilities they bear, which can often overshadow the other teammates.

Perhaps in the future, I should also start to go easy and let them grow independently.

But the issue of the Heart Demon that Ling Yun mentioned earlier…

Tsk, so annoying.

Forget it, since it’s being streamed live, Old Li and the others are probably more nervous than me. Mature psychological therapies, there are scholarly experts more knowledgeable than me.

If I promised to take it easy, let’s start from today!

————————

In the Mysterious Realm, the tail end of the battle finally concluded.

Outside the Mysterious Realm, the celebration in the live streaming room continued.

“If I remember correctly, this Mysterious Realm Gatekeeper should be the toughest and most difficult boss we’ve encountered since the start of the show,” Zhou Erhe stated.

“That should be right,” Xu Dongming replied after confirming with the crew offstage, “I just checked with our staff, and indeed, in terms of the overall duration of the battle and the frequency of attacks like spells and Flying Swords, the Zhenhai Team has indeed had their most intense and difficult challenge this time.”

“Humanoid gatekeepers are the hardest to fight because they possess intelligence and various cunning strategies,” Zhou Erhe agreed, “I haven’t seen many humanoid gatekeepers either.”

“Yes,” Xu Dongming nodded, “and most humanoid gatekeepers tend to have relatively normal personalities, but this one opened with the intent to turn people into lamp oil.”

“Probably what you’d call a typical Demon Cult boss,” Zhou Erhe concluded, “utterly evil.”

The two commentators talked for a while until the Zhenhai and Huofeng teams had both left the Mysterious Realm, then they announced:

“Alright! That’s the end of this live broadcast for the match. Up next is the press conference. For viewers interested in seeing the settlement screen, don’t go away. We’ll be right back after these commercials…”

In the hospital, Li Minghu paused for a moment, then picked up his mobile phone and sent a message to Yan Yu:

“Congratulations.”

“You’re too kind,” Yan Yu replied.

“Will there be more bosses with defense mechanisms like Flying Swords in the future?” Li Minghu typed.

The Demon Monk’s two Buddha’s Light defenses that could resist most attacks, and the invulnerable Giant Spirit Palm that could be conjured at will, were both extremely effective defensive measures against Sword Immortals.

“Yes,” Yan Yu replied, ” but there’s no need to worry.”

“Why is that?” Li Minghu asked.

“Because only those who lack skill in swordsmanship would train in such common defensive measures,” Yan Yu replied through text, “Just like in games, those who look for shortcuts and try to skive are usually the ones with poor skills.”

“They might manage against ordinary Sword Immortals, but against someone at our level, just show them our real skill and we can reveal their true nature in just a few moves.”

Li Minghu pondered carefully, thinking that if that Demon Monk truly had Flying Swords, he wouldn’t be left completely defenseless with just the Giant Spirit Palm to block and parry after his Buddha’s Light was forcefully broken through.

“Still, his attack methods are quite impressive,” she continued messaging, “the sky full of lamp lights like a shower of stars, pressuring the entire field, and those Flame Beasts, if you don’t clear them out efficiently, their numbers could become troublesome.”

“Yes,” Yan Yu replied with a slight smile, “luckily, we’re a step ahead in skill.”
