Chapter 1268: Chapter 1268

Du You’s figure gently floated to the side, and a bone spear missed him. "It’s been about ten minutes, right? We haven’t been attacked," Du You said within the panel.

The two sisters merely nodded their heads without responding, as the battle was a bit too intense.

From the beginning, when they were frequently attacked and could only rely on defense to withstand the assault, to now, it had been ten minutes, and the three of them had not been attacked at all. It wasn’t that there were no attacks, but that they had all been evaded.

This was indicative of their strengthening combat ability, especially in group battles, where their capabilities had been elevated to an unimaginable level. It could be said that their physical bodies and spiritual perception had been fully utilized to an extreme. To continue improving, they could only wait until they broke through to the sixth tier.

This was also because they were all Professionals. A Professional’s base abilities were already at their highest.

For native cultivators, in order to enhance their combat power, a large amount of fighting and training were required. For Professionals, they just needed to adapt to their own strength, and then they would naturally achieve it. Check latest chapters at 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝘯𝘦𝘵

The advantage of being a Professional was fully demonstrated here.

Looking at his Summoned Beasts, the Ghost Pattern Crow relied on its powerful evasion and magic resistance capabilities, so basically, there were no issues. Xiaozi’s flying speed, combined with the Paralysis Aura to suppress the opponent’s speed and cause damage, also didn’t have any issues.

The Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs looked somewhat rough; after all, their large size meant they took more hits. At this moment, the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs appeared tattered but were still full of life, having not sustained any serious damage.

Although their skin was shredded, the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs continuously absorbed the enemy’s power during the attack to heal themselves. And they had always been suffering only flesh wounds. Up to now, not once had the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs died.

Under the effect of the Heavenly Disaster Cloud, Flowing Fire was always active in the surroundings. The flames kept raising the temperature, and weaker Undead were often burnt to death. Even fifth-tier Undead were not without effect.

Unconsciously, the three had ventured deep into the center of the canyon.

In a spot unnoticed by the trio, a strange bird flew in the sky. No, this wasn’t a bird—if one looked closely, they would see it was a human-shaped Zombie, just with relatively thick forelimbs.

The enormous claws looked like they belonged to a mutated humanoid creature.

The key point was that there were two pairs of wings on its back—the wings were a dim gray and mismatched in model, size, and shape, making the whole appear as a haphazardly assembled defective product.

However, this defective product kept a deathly grip on its gaze on the three people attacking the Black Fog Canyon, thoughtfully contemplating something in its eyes. Although it did not engage in combat, the Undead surrounding it steered clear of its position.

By the time the trio had cleared half of the Black Fog Canyon, the Four-winged Zombie finally couldn’t hold back any longer.

It pointed its finger at the three people three times in a row. With each point, a clump of gray mist formed, like artillery it shot towards the trio. A dangerous sensation instantly swept over Du You’s heart.

Du You, without thinking, forcibly activated the Shield Spell, followed by unleashing Star Guardian. Countless black stars revolved around him, wrapping him up tightly. In the next instant, the gray mist hit him, and the stars were extinguished one by one, but the gray mist kept advancing, consuming all the stars.

The much-weakened mist hit Du You’s Magic Power Shield, and then the barrier cracked, the cracks multiplying.

At this moment, the third tier of Dark Absorption kicked in, continuously absorbing the remnants of the mist. Du You was also sent flying by this force. "Damn it, I can’t use Instantaneous Movement; the space has been locked."

Du You felt that his attempt at Instantaneous Movement had been completely ineffective, and the level suppression from the opponent directly prevented him from utilizing it. Indeed, Instantaneous Movement wasn’t omnipotent, and at later stages, the effect of level suppression was significant.

Looking back, the two sisters were also sent flying. Their defenses were completely useless. Lin Yucha’s Platform Floating Cloud was destroyed on the spot, and her Magic Power Veil was instantly shattered.

When the gray mist hit her, a surge of white light appeared, blasting the gray mist away. This was the defensive measure left by the vice-principal, which finally activated.

Lin Yushi’s situation was similar; the Drifting Feather was completely corroded, her two wings barely blocked in front of her only to be blown away by the mist; she too was sent flying after the vice-principal’s defense triggered.

The two sisters, now able to use Instantaneous Movement, blinked away to another spot. Worried about troubling Du You, they didn’t dare to blink to his side.

But the Four-winged Zombie had no chance to attack again. The Four-winged Zombie that had just launched the attack found a red, flame-formed spear before it. A wing was pierced, and the flaming spear penetrated the Zombie from behind. The spear did not vanish but, under the flames’ burning, continued to erode the body of the Zombie.

The Four-winged Zombie let out a wail and turned to flee, not the least bit reluctant to leave.

At the same time, a red figure swiftly chased after it. A voice called out from a distance, "Well done, I’ll count this as a great merit for you. Continue clearing the canyon here."

That was the vice-principal’s voice. As the sound arrived, the vice-principal had already flown far away, pursuing his target.

Du You took a deep breath and said, "Continue fighting." The battle wasn’t over yet. To stop would mean to come under enemy attack. The recent assault by a sixth-tier enemy was truly fearsome.

But Du You was quite pleased with himself, for he had just managed to withstand the opponent’s assault with his own strength without triggering the vice-principal’s defense left on him. Coupled with Dark Resurrection, it meant that he could withstand at least two attacks from a sixth-tier adept. If the opponent was a weaker sixth-tier, perhaps he could block even more.

Although he didn’t know how high the level of that Four-winged Zombie was, the fact that it survived an ambush by the vice-principal suggested its level was definitely not low. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been possible to hit him so hard.

Thus, the trio commenced their fight once again. Same as before but now without the encirclement of enemies, they could be more unrestrained, so the pace of their slaughter became even faster. Behind them, the Bone Dragons continued to control the skeletons to clean up any that slipped through.
