CHAPTER 491: CHAPTER 81: COLLAPSING SITUATION_2
Although he didn’t know what the desperate skill Arthur mentioned was, judging from Arthur’s attitude, this skill was anything but simple!
Reluctantly, he forced down the hand holding the sword. Of course, the attack he was about to launch being forcibly suppressed definitely didn’t feel good.
Opposite him, four Heavy Swords were already slashing down over his head!
The physical strength of a peak Level 5 professionist, even without any skill enhancement, was already terrifyingly potent!
The huge sword edges created consecutive Sound Explosions as they swung at Qin Tian. Seeing he wouldn’t have time to dodge, Qin Tian quickly activated his Void Sword Barrier!
An ear-piercing sound of metal clashing rang out. The Void Sword Barrier, its energy not fully replenished, barely resisted the critical hits from the four Heavy Swords. In the next moment, a large fist encased in Iron Armor rapidly grew larger before Qin Tian’s eyes.
The heavy punch instantly pierced through the Void Sword Barrier’s remaining energy. The Void Sword Qi only managed to leave a few insignificant scratches on the Iron Armor covering the fist before the punch struck Qin Tian squarely in the face!
He tilted his head slightly, taking the punch on his shoulder. Qin Tian was sent reeling back by the fake Arthur’s powerful blow, and then the attacks resumed!
Luckily, the damage from the massive punch wasn’t severe; at least there was no bleeding...
Just as Qin Tian thought the situation had reached a temporary stalemate, reinforcements finally arrived.
It wasn’t Wen Yu, but the Demon Fiends!
Within the Purple Light Spawn and Grow Barrier, Humans and mutant beasts faced more opponents than just these duplicants. The Demon Tribe was continuously transporting troops into the Purple Light Spawn and Grow Barrier, including not only Demon Cannon Fodders but also their top-tier powerful experts!
The Giant Demon Monster battling Victor was merely one of them!
The ground behind Qin Tian suddenly exploded, and a slender, dark shadow shot out.
In the blink of an eye, the dark shadow darted behind Qin Tian and wrapped around his legs!
Only then did Qin Tian see the dark shadow’s full form—an unknown, tentacle-like creature. More of this unknown Demon Monster remained hidden beneath the earth.
The next moment, tremendous power surged from Qin Tian’s legs.
The tentacle instantly tensed. A force no less than that of a peak Level 5 professionist emanated from it, pulling Qin Tian crashing to the ground!
Meanwhile, the four fake Arthurs in the distance raised their giant swords. Milky-white Sword Light rained down around Qin Tian. Then, like iron cans, they charged towards Qin Tian one after another!
Witnessing this, a flash of determination appeared in Qin Tian’s eyes!
Since the situation had escalated to this point, he had to make a choice...
Compared to getting injured and then duplicated by the Purple Light Spawn and Grow Barrier, the better option for Qin Tian was undoubtedly to strike back and eliminate these fakes!
A pale white light suddenly flared in his hand. The next moment, a strangely shaped bone sword appeared in his grasp!
Profound Sword Technique, Hundredfold Strike!
The Power that Breaks Space and the Space Slice surged wildly along the sword’s edge. Then, with a twist of his waist, Qin Tian unleashed an enormous, arc-shaped Sword Light. It rapidly slashed across the waists of the four fake Arthurs before him and the tentacle behind him!
Terrifying power raged across the small battlefield.
The might of the Profound Sword Technique instantly pierced through Arthur’s Undefeated Glory. The sharp Sword Qi ripped the bodies of the four fake Arthurs in front of Qin Tian in half!
The unknown Demon Monster beneath the ground behind Qin Tian was also caught off guard by the sudden, terrifying force. The severed front half of its tentacle fell to the ground, a milky liquid slowly oozing from it. The remaining part of the tentacle was instantly retracted back underground, vanishing without a sound.
Sensing this, Arthur, in the distance, sighed softly and quickly warned, "Be careful. The duplicants will resurrect shortly with roughly three times their strength."
Hearing Arthur’s warning, Qin Tian felt his breath catch.
Three times the strength, and four of them...
This is truly becoming more troublesome...
The fake Arthurs, bisected at the waist, twitched on the ground. Strange, multicolored substances that definitely did not resemble human viscera flowed rapidly from their bodies.
Being bisected at the waist is undoubtedly a brutal form of torture. Victims don’t die immediately but suffer immensely, struggling for a long time before succumbing.
Of course, this also bought Qin Tian a sliver of time to think.
However, before Qin Tian could devise a countermeasure, a barely perceptible tremor came from the ground beneath the four fake Arthurs!
In the next second, four tentacles shot out from underground, instantly burrowing into the wounds of the four fake Arthurs and churning violently!
An unknown purple liquid sprayed everywhere. Seeing this, Qin Tian’s mind went blank.
Arthur naturally knew about his own skills, but it was unexpected that the Demon Tribe also knew!
Moreover, the tentacle monster that had just burrowed underground, relying on its unparalleled digging ability, had launched an attack, finishing off the four fake Arthurs!
Before Qin Tian could react, the tentacle Demon Monster completed its task and immediately retracted into the ground, leaving no trace.
Large patches of black fog began to appear on the corpses of the four fake Arthurs before Qin Tian. In the blink of an eye, the black fog completely enveloped them...
Terrifying Energy Fluctuations began to brew...
There is an old saying in China: Misfortunes never come alone.
As a Chinese Singaporean, Qin Tian naturally understood the meaning of this saying.
Of course, Qin Tian might not have fully grasped its depth before, but from this moment on, he would never forget it!
Just as the four fake Arthurs in front of him were enveloped by the black fog, a "POP!" sounded from the sky.
Qin Tian shivered.
Another cocoon had shattered...
He didn’t even need to turn his head to look. A "BOOM!" reverberated, and the earth seemed to tremble twice.
Judging by the vibrations... It seemed... quite close...
The next moment, "BOOM! BOOM!" sounds approached rapidly. In less than ten seconds, another Arthur duplicant arrived on the battlefield...
Two fake Arthurs, plus four ’resurrected’ and enhanced Arthurs...
Qin Tian felt a tightness in his chest, a suffocating pressure.
With such a disparity in numbers, forget escaping unscathed; he’d be lucky to even survive...
Lost in despair, Qin Tian didn’t notice a barely perceptible flicker of Black Energy in the distance instantly strike a cocoon.
When the new Arthur duplicant arrived, Arthur consciously took on more of the fighting.
The duel between Arthur and the fake Arthurs was somewhat bizarre.
The three figures, resembling iron cans, were identical except for their skin color and facial markings. Their only tactic was to continuously hack with the Heavy Swords in their hands, the CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! sounds echoing unceasingly.
Coupled with their extremely formidable defense capabilities, even injuring them proved to be a significant challenge in their battle.
However, it was foreseeable that Arthur wouldn’t be able to hold out against two of them—the injuries weren’t the main concern; stamina was the major problem!
In fact, after fighting continuously for so long, Arthur already felt a burning sensation in his chest—a precursor to physical exhaustion!
Just as Arthur engaged the two duplicants, the black fog around the four already-dead fake Arthurs slowly dissipated. Four heavily armored, giant sword-wielding, skeletal figures emerged from the black fog.
Their eight dark green eyes glinted with a vicious, cold light as they stared intently at Qin Tian. Pale skin clung tightly to their bones, with black blood vessels faintly visible underneath.
Seeing this, Qin Tian slowly raised his bone sword.
