Chapter 567, Shadow Dragon Bloodline, One-Strike Kill!

Translator: Silavin

 

These crystal giants had neither mouth nor nose. They in fact lacked any facial features. They possessed only an enormous crystal that resembled a head, from which a single voice emanated.

 

Moreover, their voice sounded like countless stones colliding and grinding together. Lu Fan had to strain to understand what these creatures were actually saying.

 

Lu Fan used Appraisal to examine the information on these Monsters. They were called Crystal Cliff Clan Believers, Level 95 Elite Monster with quite High Attributes that would prove challenging even for Fourth Profession Players.

 

In fact, with their appearance, this Map seemed quite suitable for Fourth Profession Players to grind for Levels.

 

When facing ordinary Elite Monsters, Lu Fan had no interest in deploying his Pet Dragon or equipping his ‘Arm Guards’.

 

“Bloodline Sharing Awakening!” With Lu Fan’s light shout, surging Blood Qi immediately overflowed from his body, enveloping him.

 

This Blood Qi was pitch black, covering Lu Fan’s body like a cloak.

 

Simultaneously, on Lu Fan’s arms, dark energy condensed into blades that appeared exceptionally sharp.

 

This was Lu Fan activating the Shadow Dragon King Bloodline Power, within his body. After using Bloodline Sharing Awakening, he gained an aura that granted Concealment to himself and all teammates, as well as entered a special state where he could ignore 50% of all forms of Defence, which includes Skills.

 

Earlier, through Appraisal, Lu Fan had learned that the Crystal Cliff Clan Believers were ordinary Monsters, merely possessing Higher Endurance and Strength Attribute.

 

Activating the Shadow Dragon Bloodline to gain stronger Armour Piercing capabilities would allow Lu Fan to better deal with these oddly shaped Monsters.

 

Lu Fan’s figure gradually became blurry as he executed Bloodline Sharing Awakening.

 

If Lu Fan wished, he could completely conceal his form and become an assassin undetectable to anyone.

 

However, there was naturally no need for that level of Concealment when dealing with Monsters like this.

 

Lu Fan stepped forward and charged out, simultaneously equipping the Flaming Meteor Sword and slashing towards the foremost Crystal Cliff Clan Believer.

 

This Crystal Cliff Clan Believer wielded a heavy sword, and with its very Low Agility Attribute, it was completely outclassed by Lu Fan. After Lu Fan gained the initiative in attack, it had no opportunity to dodge or parry, taking Lu Fan’s sword strike.

 

While Lu Fan’s Attributes were very high, given the Crystal Cliff Clan Believers’ incredibly High Defence, killing one would require several attacks.

 

However, the Shadow Dragon King’s Awakened Bloodline Power allowed Lu Fan to ignore far too much of the Crystal Cliff Clan Believer’s Defence, making this sword strike produce something close to True Damage.

 

The Crystal Cliff Clan Believer’s Defence was indeed very strong, but its Health Pool was not particularly high.

 

Facing Lu Fan’s terrifying Amour Piercing, it could not withstand even a single sword strike.

 

As Lu Fan’s sword fell, the Crystal Cliff Clan Believer’s body split in two like tofu, killed instantly on the spot!

 

Lu Fan was also quite surprised that Bloodline Sharing Awakening, after activating, proved to be so effective.

 

A Monster with such High Defence could be killed with a single sword strike!

 

Even a Fourth Profession Knight would likely be unable to withstand this sword strike of his.

 

Even if the Knight used the Divine Skill, Holy Light Protection, to gain ten seconds of Invulnerability, they would still be unable to escape the fate of being instantly killed. After all, Lu Fan could now ignore 50% of all forms of Defence!

 

This was merely Lu Fan’s Base Attribute.

 

What if he were Riding a Pet Dragon? What if he equipped Xiao Zuo and Xiao You? What if he did both at the same time?

 

Due to the existence of Bloodline Sharing Awakening, when Lu Fan fought alongside Ye Sha, he would have even more Buffs.

 

Specifically, both man and Dragon would have the Shadow Corruption Effect attached to their attacks. Thus, with each attack, Additional Damage would be dealt. At its current Skill Level, it would cause three strikes of 80%, 40%, and 20% of the original attack!

 

This effectively increased Lu Fan and Ye Sha’s Attack by 1.5 times!

 

Combined with the Armour Piercing capabilities of both, even a High Defence Boss as sturdy as an iron barrel would be unable to withstand it!

 

Lu Fan was even confident that under a full-power strike from himself and Ye Sha, even a Level 120 Fifth Profession Player would be killed or severely injured if a successful ambush!

 

This was Lu Fan’s strength after he had the Bloodline Sharing Awakening Skill!

 

The enemies Lu Fan now faced were four Crystal Cliff Clan Believers.

 

From beginning to end, Lu Fan only struck four times. He had killed them all instantly on the spot, each with one strike.

 

The four Crystal Cliff Clan Believers dropped two materials, all of which were some kind of deep blue crystal that should be usable by Enhancement Specialised Profession.

 

Since these came from Monster in the depths of the Wilderness, the crystals should be quite valuable, with each piece worth at least tens of thousands of Dragon Coins.

 

However, Lu Fan had no interest in such materials. He was not short of money anyway, so he had no interest in even picking them up, leaving them with the Crystal Cliff Clan Believers’ carcasses to be erased by this world’s Principles.

 

After killing these Monsters, Lu Fan continued forward and soon encountered several more waves of Crystal Cliff Clan Believers.

 

Upon seeing Lu Fan, they immediately launched attacks, declaring that they would drive Lu Fan away and not allow him to defile this sacred ground of Heavenly Divine Peak.

 

Lu Fan found these believers’ loyalty to be quite strange and was rather concerned whether a Divine Being still existed within this mountain.

 

If the Divine Being had long since departed, why were these believers so loyal?

 

After voicing his doubts, the Devouring Dragon King scoffed and assured Lu Fan.

 

There was absolutely no Divine Being here. As for these believers, there was no need to pay them any mind. When the Divine Being of this place was present, they undoubtedly performed a massive mind control Skill on their believers here.

 

This resulted in the believers continuing to guard this place long after their Divine Being had departed, preventing anyone from disturbing their ‘God’.

 

Further ahead, these believers would become increasingly numerous, and their attempts to drive Lu Fan away would become increasingly intense. He need only continue killing his way through.

 

With the Devouring Dragon King backing him, Lu Fan put his mind at ease and continued ascending the mountain while slaying any Monster that came to obstruct him.

 

Soon, the number of Crystal Cliff Clan Believers who had died at Lu Fan’s hands exceeded one hundred, and Lu Fan had also advanced a considerable distance up the mountain.

 

At this point, the Crystal Cliff Clan Believers disappeared, replaced by Monsters called Scarlet Bee Believers.

 

These Scarlet Bee Believers were likewise Level 95 Elite Monsters, but completely different from the Crystal Cliff Clan Believers. They were Agility Type Monsters with neither particularly strong Defence nor Attack. Each time they appeared, they came in extremely large numbers, blotting out the sky with thousands of them. Additionally, their attacks contained Poison, presenting considerable trouble for any Player.
