CHAPTER 570: CHAPTER 570: THE RETURN OF THE FLOWING GOLD WARRIOR, SWORD SACRIFICE!

Compared to the regular state, when facing a level 140 Immortal-ranked BOSS, Zhang Yue’s damage clearly dropped quite a bit.

However, it was no big deal.

Relying on explosive single-target damage between 1.5 to 2 billion, the moment Zhang Yue attacked, the BOSS’s HP bar above its head dropped rapidly.

Chen Zijin relentlessly pursued strength and also tried various ways to show herself in front of Zhang Yue, not wanting to be looked down upon by him.

But ultimately, at this moment, she was defeated by the vast gap between the two.

Facing a Legendary Shadow Dancer and a Mythical Necromancer, even the Immortal-ranked BOSS Flame Python was powerless to resist.

In an instant, it was blasted to death under Zhang Yue’s Transcendent Staff.

["Ding~ Congratulations, you have killed the level 140 Immortal-ranked BOSS [Flame Python · Omega], EXP +500 billion, Energy +300 trillion!"]

Whoosh!

A beam of golden light descended from above Chen Zijin’s head.

With the rich experience rewards from the BOSS, Chen Zijin’s level finally rose from 139 to 140.

As for Zhang Yue, since he had already reached the level cap of 140, all the experience gained was accumulated.

Looking around, one could see that around the corpse of the Flame Python, a pile of golden glittering loot had scattered.

The loot from a level 140 Immortal-ranked BOSS was surely worth a fortune.

However, Zhang Yue didn’t even glance at it.

His attention was focused on the belly of the Flame Python.

With the Flame Python’s death, its abdomen faintly emitted a soft glow.

Normally, this wouldn’t draw attention, just a post-death biological reaction from a snake king.

But Zhang Yue noticed: the flash frequency from its belly perfectly matched the flash frequency of the sensing ring on his hand.

So, Zhang Yue prepared to approach it.

Just then, he suddenly sensed a cold wind sweeping in from behind on the right.

Whoosh!

Chen Zijin, relying on her extraordinary insight, also reacted, dodging and swinging her blades swiftly, releasing a curved flash that collided with a sweeping sword aura aimed directly at Zhang Yue, blocking the sudden attack for him.

At the same time, in front of Zhang Yue—

Crash!

With the opening of a huge golden light screen, a warrior fully clad in sealed flowing gold armor, holding a dazzling sword, slowly stepped out from the light.

Just standing there, the overwhelming aura emitted by this Flowing Gold Warrior was enough to make Zhang Yue feel a heavy pressure!

Zhang Yue was slightly surprised.

The guy he encountered in the Gate of Immortality last time, the one who rescued one of the three main gods, Lord of Wrath · Jie’e, from his hands, had appeared again.

This man’s presence was no less than that of a Mythical-class profession.

Zhang Yue had already sensed this the first time he faced him.

There was a reason.

Zhang Yue realized: the man was after the Nether Stone.

At this moment, Zhang Yue and the Flowing Golden Warrior were positioned on opposite sides of the Flame Python’s corpse, equidistant from it.

Zhang Yue immediately prepared to use Blink to quickly rush to the Flame Python and retrieve the Nether Stone.

Unexpectedly: the other party had seen through Zhang Yue’s intent.

Whoosh!

With a light lift of his right hand, the longsword moved.

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

Several golden swords suddenly burst from the ground around Zhang Yue, forming a sword formation that trapped him.

At this moment, Zhang Yue tried to use Blink again, only to find: it couldn’t be used.

Not only Blink, even all the skills in his skill list showed a disabled icon.

Sword Sacrifice.

Zhang Yue instantly recognized the skill.

A rare-quality skill of the warrior class, Sword Sacrifice.

An instant-cast skill, even faster than a mage’s Blink, able to be cast with a single thought.

And its effect was to silence a designated target (during silence, all skills are unusable).

Because it’s rare, not unique—

The Sword Sacrifice skill is also quite common in high-level matches among powerful professionals. Most strong warriors are equipped with this skill and can use it to instantly kill an opponent during a brief silence.

Upon seeing the opponent use this skill, Zhang Yue’s first reaction was slight surprise...

Moreover, after silencing Zhang Yue with Sword Sacrifice, the Flowing Gold Warrior didn’t take the opportunity to attack him.

Instead, with a lunge, he instantly appeared beside the Flame Python’s corpse.

Slash!

With a raise and slash of the sword, he cut open the area where the light had flashed on the Flame Python’s body.

The next moment, a "stone" flowing with dark red light rolled out from inside the corpse.

The Flowing Gold Warrior reached out and picked it up.

Just as Zhang Yue expected, his goal was the Nether Stone.

At this moment, the Sword Sacrifice effect around Zhang Yue wore off.

Zhang Yue swiftly waved his staff.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Heaven-shaking Thunder!

Shattered Lightning!

Heavenfire Burning Fields!

A barrage of skills aimed at the opponent’s predicted movement, blasting toward him.

What shocked Zhang Yue the most was: all of his predictive attacks were counter-read by the opponent with an unbelievable level of awareness.

Simply put, the opponent predicted Zhang Yue’s predictions.

Until now, it had always been Zhang Yue predicting others’ predictions, never had his predictions been predicted by someone else.

This shocking awareness caught Zhang Yue completely off guard.

At this moment, a figure flashed past Zhang Yue.

In the instant they brushed shoulders, Zhang Yue felt an intense murderous aura from Chen Zijin.

Clearly, due to the opponent’s attack on Zhang Yue, Chen Zijin had been enraged, and now, she harbored a deadly killing intent toward him.

In Chen Zijin’s eyes, she could not allow anyone who posed a threat to Zhang Yue to exist.

Zhang Yue knew very well that the opponent’s strength was unfathomable, and Chen Zijin was by no means his match.

He quickly called out to her, "Don’t go over!"

However, Chen Zijin’s speed was still one step faster than Zhang Yue’s warning.

She had already charged to the front of the Flowing Gold Warrior.

Her bright, agile eyes glinted with a terrifying killing intent, "Die!"

Slash!

She aimed at the Flowing Gold Warrior’s neck and swung.

But at 0.1 seconds before the strike could land, the opponent tilted his body back with a movement that seemed effortless but was terrifyingly precise, causing her strike to miss.

Chen Zijin was no ordinary assassin.

With a calm mind, she launched a lightning-fast combo.

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

Every strike was lethal, yet all her attacks were precisely dodged by the Flowing Gold Warrior.

It was as if every move of Chen Zijin had already been anticipated by him.

The Flowing Gold Warrior’s display of extreme micro-control shocked Chen Zijin to her core.

She had never encountered such an opponent.

Could such defensive operations really be performed by a human?

Just as Chen Zijin was stunned, the Flowing Gold Warrior took advantage of the brief opening after dodging her fatal blow and slashed upward fiercely. Although Chen Zijin retreated in time to evade, a wave of sword energy released from the blade still forced her back.

Chen Zijin’s relentless attitude instantly enraged the Flowing Gold Warrior.

Originally not intending to harm her, the Flowing Gold Warrior was now radiating a killing intent...
