Chapter 617: Phantasmal Shadow’s Face

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Roar!”

The Fire Qilin received Happy’s Emperor Shocks World in full, and the scorching flames around it were pushed away as if they had been cut off by a wind blade . Its charge became much slower, and Phantasmal Shadow seized the chance to charge out of the tunnel and completely shake off the Fire Qilin .

But what caused Happy to be surprised was that Phantasmal Shadow, who had never shown her real face to the world in his previous life or had her veil torn, had thrown it away during the fight . It was now completely gone, and a face of unmatched beauty was reflected in Happy’s eyes . He could not help but look at her twice .

Fortunately, he had seen quite a number of beauties in his previous life, and he had a large supply of beautiful women by his side in this life . He was curious and surprised, but he did not forget about the threat from the Fire Qilin because of her .

“Go!”

He put his sword away and turned around . The group then charged to the entrance into the tunnel in haste .

“Roar!”

The Fire Qilin was first made to suffer pain by a sword slash, and then it found out that the human who disturbed its sleep had fled . It was furious and roared in anger while running forward madly . The furious flames around it became much larger, and with an astonishing momentum, it charged out of the tunnel to go after Happy .

Among the five people from Wind Assault Tower, Happy, and Momo, the ones with the fastest body movement were Phantasmal Shadow and Momo . Happy… was dead last as he went after them calmly .

The group was incredibly shocked .

Even though they should not be thinking about it in this sort of situation, Wu Kuo and the others knew what kind of encounter Phantasmal Shadow had and that her Body Movement was incredibly astonishing, so she should be the one with the best Body Movement in the game as of right then . Why then was Phantasmal Shadow unable to show off her advantage in front of Momo!

Momo was also shocked .

She was not surprised when Happy could catch up to her . Nine Yang Divine Skill provided an increase in Body Movement and its user’s skills, and no one could possibly imagine just how much that increase was, but Phantasmal Shadow was actually able to catch up to her Wind God Technique! It seemed like Phantasmal Shadow’s Phantasmal Body Movement was a little extraordinary…

Happy did not pay attention to any of that at that moment .

The Fire Qilin was coming after them!

They were not out of danger just yet .

“Tower Master Shadow, head to the road ahead of you as fast as possible . Enter Extreme Yin Cave and hide there . I’ll stall it for a while before I come as quickly as possible . ”

Happy spoke in an incredibly resolute manner .

Momo did not act obstinate again .

With the slash earlier, Happy had used his actions to prove that he had the ability to fight against the Fire Qilin . The cautious and wary nature he displayed also showed that he was not the type of person to lower his guard for a beautiful lady and try to prove himself without thought .

“If that’s the case, we’ll have to trouble you! Let’s go!”

Phantasmal Shadow could sense the power of Happy’s sword along with his mastery of timing .

Since they had entered the second tunnel to the right, the six Wind Assault Tower members attacked the Fire Qilin together, but they found it hard to approach it, much less think about injuring it . Its body seemed to have been made of metal, and the flames around it were able to evaporate a person’s qi as well as largely reduce their damage . All attacks lost their might when they reached the Fire Qilin, and from being able to cause some damage, they were reduced to being scratches on the Fire Qilin .

No matter how they tried to attack, they simply could not hurt it .

And it was precisely because of this that Wind Assault Tower had to retreat after they lost one of their own . If they did not leave, their entire part might have ended up dying .

However, the attack moments earlier allowed Phantasmal Shadow to clearly sense that even though Happy had not managed to injure the Fire Qilin, his attack was much fiercer compared to her group’s attacks on the creature . He was even been able to stop the Fire Qilin for a while .

Happy acting as a rearguard was much safer than any of them acting as rearguard…

After all, if the Fire Qilin managed to catch up to them in the hot tunnel, the results would be disastrous!

They had already lost one elite in their operation, so Phantasmal Shadow had to ensure her other members’ safety .

Phantasmal Shadow led the people from Wind Assault Tower toward the exit without stopping while Happy slowed down a little . As the Fire Qilin roared in anger repeatedly and charged forward with an aggressive momentum, Happy stopped in a narrow section of the tunnel and turned around!

Clang!

In his previous life, he remembered that having one or two ultimate techniques did not mean that a person could injure a Fire Qilin . They had to attack the same spot repeatedly and accurately to create accumulative damage, and to do this, more than six elites had to work together before they could succeed . But once Happy practiced Nine Yang Divine Skill, his skills surpassed those of his previous self a little, and his judgment of his surroundings had become clearer and more accurate .

If someone said that Happy did not want to try and get some blood from the Fire Qilin, they would be talking nonsense! The Fire Qilin’s blood did not just nourish qi, but also healed all wounds, and it was equivalent to a rare medicinal pill and an Illusion Life and Death Pill . Its importance in the game was self-evident .

But Happy did not want to display his true strength in front of others, especially when Phantasmal Shadow was beside him . Letting her know too much was not a good thing .

However, he had a good chance right then .

Clang!

His sword whined, and a dazzling as well as peerless sword force tore through the air from his sword sheath .

The slash he executed struck the Fire Qilin the moment it squeezed into the tunnel and it was at a disadvantage of not being able to avoid the attack . Right as it spat out flames and craned its neck, a cold glare jabbed into the spot Happy had injured previously .

“Roar!”

A greenish-white sword mark instantly appeared on the Fire Qilin’s body, which was covered in dense scales . It was incredibly vague, but to the Fire Qilin, it was a provocation and humiliation that it had never experienced before in its life .

It stopped, opened its mouth, and a ball of fire shot out from it!

Boom!

Red flames filled the tunnel . As the Fire Qilin roared, it quickly rushed in front of Happy .

If a normal person had to suddenly face that, they would definitely panic and hide, but not only did Happy not evade the Fire Qilin, he used an astonishing speed to sheath his sword and take hold of the handle with both hands . A thick wave of qi then formed a resonance, and it created the dragon-shaped vortex . Happy dug at the air, and two loud dragon roars rose one after the other as he pushed forward at the flames that came at his face .

Due to the environment, the damage of the tangible flames was astonishing . Forget the fact that Life and Death Realm players could not receive it, even Inaction Realm players would not be able to survive the sea of fire .

But Happy knew very clearly that the Fire Qilin’s true strength was in close-quarters combat, its nimble mobility, sturdy and tough flesh, and its sharp claws!

Its scorching flames might be able to burn through everything, but they were only effective because of people’s innate fear of flames…

In truth, when any attack was classified as an AOE (area of effect attack), its power was largely reduced, and it had a weakness .

The scorching flames were the same . Since they did not have a core, they were very easy to destroy . With two palm strikes, the flames that came charging forward madly sank in the center and showed signs of tumbling back!

Happy attacked again .

With the help of the narrow tunnel, the scorching flames looked as if they had been attacked by a violent gust of wind, and they turned tail to pounce back on the Fire Qilin!
