Chapter 609: Chapter 609
Being frequently engaged in battles in the midst of a large number of demons, Du You and his team have become quite adept at fighting in situations where they are surrounded. However, these ice creatures seem to be even more reckless about their own lives than demons.
Because they keep appearing, they’re everywhere, and even denser than demons.
A cold blade flashed in the air and the Ghost Pattern Crow, which had been hiding, was cut in half instantly. The next second, the Ghost Pattern Crow suddenly resurrected in the air, due to the effect of Resurrection Summon.
"Get down quickly!" Du You hurriedly called for the Ghost Pattern Crow to land. Meanwhile, Lin Yucha had found the mutant ice creature that had just attacked the Ghost Pattern Crow and killed it off with Spiral Snipe from a distance.
The Ghost Pattern Crow plays an important role in weakening the overall strength of the enemies. If the Ghost Pattern Crow dies, their pressure will increase by at least 50%. Now, only two bird creatures were left fighting in the air.
No, there was one more. There was also a Thunder Doppelganger, which made it a total of three.
The most miserable one was the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs, which were densely covered with wounds. As these scars were healing constantly, new ones were being added, thus the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs were getting weaker and weaker. Newest update provıded by 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵⟡𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮⟡𝓷𝓮𝓽
"Quickly, at this rate we’re all going to die here."
Du You hadn’t anticipated that these ice creatures would be harder to deal with than the demons they had faced before. Indeed, most of the demons they had faced before were of the first tier, and there were not many second-tier demons; they were all mixed up in the demon crowd.
But this was different. There were only a few first-tier ice creatures here, and the main force was of the second tier. In such an environment, they had been able to hold their ground with their unique skills and the sheer number of their summoned creatures. If it were someone else, even a third-tier colonist, they might not be able to safely pass through.
They swiftly moved forward, with the two birds mainly providing protection for the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs below. The Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs barely attacked, they were just hopping forward.
The task of slaughtering ice creatures along the way primarily fell on Du You and the two sisters.
In this way, the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs finally couldn’t hold on midway and were momentarily engulfed by a multitude of ice attacks. After dying, the black light shadow on the body of Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs recondensed, resuscitating once again.
Du You hurriedly scrambled back on and started moving forward again. About an hour later, despite the horrific attacks, Du You and his team finally arrived at the front of the city of Ice Snow Crown. The gate was right in front of them.
"Damn it, it can’t hold on again." Du You cursed under his breath, as the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs were killed again.
If it is killed again during the two-hour cooldown period, then it really dies and they can only wait for 24 hours before it can be summoned again. The death of the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs brought down the other creatures as well.
First, Du You quickly retracted the unicorn which would not be resurrected. Because his movement was a bit slow, the Ghost Pattern Crow and Hell Blood Demon Dog died for the second time, and could only go back to wait for the next resurrection.
Du You quickly recollected the Death Scorpion, he couldn’t afford to lose another one.
A scream came from the air, Du You looked up and his face fell, "Why is there only one left?"
Yes, Xiaozi died twice and had to wait for resurrection. It’s been a long time since so many of his summoned creatures were killed off. If not for the Black Jade Griffin’s defensive ability, it might have been killed off in the end, too.
At present, the Black Jade Griffin is also severely injured and can only be withdrawn for slow recovery. Maybe it can heal after a while. This rate of recovery is at least easier than waiting for resurrection after death.
As Du You and his team were about to enter the gate, Lin Yushi suddenly exclaimed, "Look, the ice creatures are disappearing."
Upon hearing this, Du You turned around and saw that the ice monsters that had been chasing them all along inexplicably stopped, started to slowly melt and merged into the ice on the ground, just like those that had already died.
"So, it was all to prevent us from reaching here," Du You said speechlessly, the intensity of the previous battle had been too high. The large number of second-tier creatures surrounding him, even without skills, put tremendous pressure on him. Without the protection defense of the Shield Spell and Dark Absorption, he and the two sisters might have been in danger.
Du You finally understood why no one had succeeded in passing this test over the years. If the rank were higher, the danger of this test would only increase geometrically.
"That said, the drop rate here is really high," Du You commented, opening his own orbs. The number of orbs was much higher than he had imagined.
The most common item in the orbs was still Crystal Coins; surprisingly, the second most common was a type of Ice and Snow Magic Crystal.
Ice and Snow Magic Crystal: Can increase Magic Power after use.
"There’s no limit on this thing. Perfect, we should recover here. Let’s consume these first," Du You said, starting to consume, followed by the two sisters.
There were plenty of items, no need to ration. But after a while, Du You was frustrated.
"Why doesn’t it increase anymore? What’s wrong with my Magic Power? It’s maxed out?"
Du You discovered that, for some reason, his base Magic Power had actually reached the 20th level. There was no other way, the basic Magic Power cultivation skill could only reach a maximum level of 20. If he wanted to continue to increase, he could only find a way to construct a new Magic Power skill.
Just a moment later, the two sisters also stopped, because their basic Demon Extermination Power had reached the full level of 20.
"It’s so frustrating. Having a treasure mountain in our hands, yet unable to continue to improve our statistics."
Du You frankly felt daunted. However, the two sisters felt very satisfied. Because after their basic Demon Extermination Power reached level 20, it no longer became a problem of their lack of Magic Power. Conversely, at the same level, there might be very few people who could compete with them in terms of the quantity of Magic Power. If they had skills that could reduce Magic Power consumption, their endurance in battle would be even stronger.
They couldn’t compare with Du You, who was a monster, but both sisters were now like human-shaped turrets.
Shaking his head, Du You continued to open the orbs. "I hope I can find some advanced Magic Power cultivation skill in the next orbs. There should be some since the drop rate here is so high. Even if I fail and get recalled, at least it’s useful here."
Du You didn’t rush into the city but continued to open the orbs here. The Origin Crystal Coins, which he generally didn’t care about, turned out to be in abundance this time. Even if a large number of Crystal Coins needed to be consumed to construct skills, Du You didn’t hesitate to do it.
"Haha, I’ve got some. Can you two merge new skills now?" Du You suddenly asked the two sisters.
