Chapter 1098: Chapter 501: The Method to Break the Formation_2

[It had a complex expression, feeling grateful yet slightly annoyed at you, its thoughts too tangled to put into words.]

[Amid the intense battle, it didn’t have time to think further; after swallowing the lotus seed, its expression brightened, and it once again threw itself into the fight with all its might!]

The ’Great Black Sky King’ boss was extremely perverse with strong controlling tactics. If someone was caught and not rescued in time, they would be hit by the boss, thus losing 1 point of Soul Strength.

Fortunately, these controlling tactics had a cooldown period and couldn’t be continuously unleashed.

With the initial experience, Lin Xun and the White Elephant Demon cooperated wholeheartedly. As soon as one of them was caught, the other would immediately launch a fierce attack, making the boss switch its target.

In this way, the two of them managed to hold on for the time being, otherwise the nine lotus seeds Lin Xun had wouldn’t last long.

However, the boss of the fourth layer of the Illusion Domain was more difficult to deal with than imagined...

[You and the White Elephant Demon had just managed to hold on for a while when you saw that time had passed and black energy was gathering around the ’Great Black Sky King’s’ human skin drum.]

[Now, the human skin drum was enveloped in swirling black energy, unable to gather any more.]

[The White Elephant Demon also noticed and felt a bad premonition. Just as it was about to speak, the ’Great Black Sky King’ suddenly struck the drum forcefully!]

[A thunderous boom sounded! Invisible sonic waves exploded outward!]

[You felt as though someone had brutally hit you on the head, and everything went black for a moment as your world spun...]

[You have suffered a Soul Attack!]

[Soul Strength -1]

[Current remaining Soul Strength 5/7]

[You couldn’t help but fall to the ground, your vision blurred and indistinct.]

[Not far from you, the White Elephant Demon was also dizzy and pale-faced from the drum sound, clearly having suffered damage to its soul.]

[The ’Great Black Sky King’ sneered, then aimed the Human Bone Bowl at you, freezing you rigid and unable to move.]

[At that moment, the White Elephant Demon tried to come to your aid, but it staggered a few steps, swinging its hammer and missing the monster, instead tripping and falling to the ground, clearly not yet recovered from the aftershocks of the sonic wave.]

[A Giant Steel Fork pierced directly through your flesh, penetrating your soul!]

[You have suffered a Soul Attack!]

[Soul Strength -1]

[Current remaining Soul Strength 4/7]

[A Huge Crescent-shaped Blade descended vertically, slashing across your body, tearing your soul!]

[You have suffered a Soul Attack!]

[Soul Strength -1]

[Current remaining Soul Strength 3/7]

[The White Elephant Demon, seeing you continuously hit by the huge monster, turned as pale as paper, quickly rose to its feet, leapt up with a roar, and with all its strength, finally struck the monster’s chest with a hammer.]

[The Furious Power was fully unleashed, the force of the blow comparable to splitting heaven, blasting it directly away!]

[Its body shattered to the ground, dissolving into endless black mist...]

[Taking advantage of the situation, the White Elephant Demon helped you up, hastily asking, "Brother, can you still hold on?"]

[You finally caught your breath, inwardly sighing that was close, and immediately took out three lotus seeds to eat, restoring your Soul Strength to 6/7]

[You now only had three lotus seeds left, and you were only on the fourth level of the Illusion Domain. After some thought, you handed two lotus seeds to the White Elephant Demon, keeping only one for yourself.]

[You said to the White Elephant Demon, "This is the last of our stock. Use them sparingly..."]

[Before the White Elephant Demon could respond, you saw black energy gathering in the distance, reforming into an unharmed ’Great Black Sky King.’]

[Its human skin drum’s black energy dissipated back to its initial state, seeming to need time to regather before it could use the Sonic Soul Attack again...]

[You understood the capabilities and powers of this monster; as long as you killed it before the human skin drum gathered enough black energy, it had to reaccumulate the energy to use the Sonic Soul Attack again.]

[The White Elephant Demon took the lotus seeds, nodded in thanks, and then leaped forward to resume the fierce battle with the monster...]

Lin Xun’s eyes flickered with numerous characters as his Analysis Power activated.

He sighed and said, "I hope the solution analyzed isn’t wrong, otherwise the outcome of this wager is likely to be more dire than not..."]

"Truly worthy of being the hidden area in Chapter nine of the Hell Difficulty, just one ’Demon Slaying Temple’ in the dojo has already put me in such a dire state."

According to the information disclosed by the White Elephant Demon, the Illusion Domain wasn’t fully activated until the first four levels; their purpose was to torment those within the formation. It’s only during the last two levels that the Demon Slaying Formation would fully activate, showing its real deadly tricks.

Only when the Demon Slaying Formation was truly in full force could Lin Xun use his trump card to break through the formation!

[...]

[...]

[The White Elephant Demon, with a mighty roar, again blasted the monster into a cloud of black mist. Its chest heaved violently from fatigue, dripping with sweat as if it had soaked its clothes. ]

[By then, it had killed the monster more than ten times. Those two lotus seeds you had given were down to the last one, its face pale, enduring the pain in its soul, yet unwilling to use up the last lotus seed.]

[The ’Great Black Sky King’ turned into scattering black mist, not gathering immediately but spreading further apart...]

[The White Elephant Demon, seeing this, joyfully said, "Brother, this bastard is finally finished! Next, next..."]

[Damn it, next is the fifth level of the Illusion Domain...]

[As it spoke, the White Elephant Demon’s face fell, as both of you had barely managed to hang on during the fourth level, and as you were about to enter the fifth level, where the ’Demon Slaying Formation’ would demonstrate its true power, how were you two going to cope?]
