The first five attacks of the Consecutive Light Strikes skill deal an abysmal amount of damage compared to Xie Feng's base damage and, coincidentally, the skill increased Xie Feng's speed by 400% more than normal. In short, his current attack speed was 500; that means, five hits per second... This implied that when Consecutive Light Strikes ended, only one second would have passed but Xie Feng would have already caused a terrifying amount of damage!

Xie Feng, who knew that victory was already his, did not bother to attack immediately and instead casually inspected the stunned beast in front of him.

​​

[Thousand Ice Cocatrix: Immortal Grade Beast -

Level: 26

HP: 3,739,406

MP: 4,000,000

Note: Currently stunned.]

With five seconds remaining, Xie Feng took an attack posture with an indifferent expression and stabbed forward at the speed of light.

BOOM!

-108.802

BOOM!!!

-217.699

-217.699

-217.699

Consecutive Light Strikes' second hit, Trishula activated, showing its terror.

BOOM!!!

-326.497

-326.497

-326.497

During the third strike, which inflicted 3000% physical damage with Xie Feng's normal physical damage as the base, Trishula came back into play again and the Thousand Ice Cocatrix's body was lifted off the ground.

BOOM!

-435.301

BOOOM!!!

-544.099

-544.099

-544.099

On the last hit of Consecutive Light Strikes, which inflicted a total of 5000% physical damage, Xie Feng's extremely high luck with a total of 61 points did its thing once again and Trishula, with a 50% chance of triggering, was activated again.

A thunderous boom echoed through the uninhabited lands of ice and snow, causing the ears of the two beauties and Xie Feng's friends to hum for a few seconds. But that was not all.

Under the stupefied gaze and eyes of disbelief, the massive body of the gigantic and terrifying Thousand Ice Cocatrix that had been lifted from the ground during Xie Feng's third attack was sent flying like a kite with a broken string for over five hundred meters before finally landing on the hard ice with a loud bang!

As the five of them watched the beast lying on the ground without rising, their gazes could not leave the terrifying red damage figures slowly flying up into the air.

Because it took only one second to make the five strikes performed by Xie Feng, all the group members could clearly see the total damage inflicted by him!

"Ah...This..." Hu Chen opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something but he was so shocked that he could only babble some nonsense.

"... Over three million eight hundred thousand points of physical damage in one second..." Yue Kai managed to mutter in incredulity. Even though he himself was seeing it with his own eyes, it was hard to believe.... It was hard to believe because the damage caused by Xie Feng now was almost double the damage he did to the Poisonous Commodus Dragon a week ago!

The scariest thing of all was that they didn't know that Xie Feng didn't even use Black Smile let alone Gale Track! Otherwise, the amount of damage he could have dealt would have been more than double what he had inflicted now!

Roar!

Everyone was awakened by Ling Long's roar. It was as if she was announcing to the world about her achievements, which might not seem like much to some, but in reality the only reason Xie Feng managed to defeat in this battle was all thanks to Ling Long! If he was alone, he could not even have approached the Thousand Ice Cocatrix before suffering a terrible death!

Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue were the first to look at each other, both saw the pride on their faces impossible to hide even with masks; after a simple look with a smile, the two ran to meet their beloved.

On the other hand, while Xie Feng cursed the Thousand Ice Cocatrix for flying away (even though he was the one to blame for sending it flying), he furiously ran towards the fallen beast as a series of announcements rang in his ears one after another.

[Ding!... You have leveled up. You have reached level 24. You get 5 stat points, +20 HP, +20 MP, +5 Vitality, +5 Strength, +5 Intelligence, +5 Agility, +1 Movement Speed].

[Ding!... Your pet Ling Long has leveled up. Your pet has reached level 24. +100 HP, +100 MP, +25 Physical Attack Power, +10 Defense, +10 Accuracy, +2 Evasion].

[Ding!... You have leveled up. You have reached level 25. You get 5 stat points, +20 HP, +20 MP, +5 Vitality, +5 Strength, +5 Intelligence, +5 Agility, +1 Movement Speed].

[Ding!... Your pet Ling Long has leveled up. Your pet has reached level 25. +100 HP, +100 MP, +25 Physical Attack Power, +10 Defense, +10 Accuracy, +2 Evasion].

[Ding!... Due to your lack of power, 'Calamity Spear' absorbs part of the experience gained].

[Ding!... You have killed an Immortal grade beast of level 26. You get 5000 prestige points as a reward].

[Ding!... You and your party have defeated the Thousand Ice Cocatrix, a creature of Immortal rank. This is considered a great feat worthy of praise and a series of worldwide announcements will be released. Do you wish to hide your name?]

Even receiving half the experience, Xie Feng managed to level up two more times; considering that he had already leveled up once while on this map, in 24 hours he had leveled up three times! Such speed was simply shocking!

Of course, Immortal grade creatures were not wild weeds that could be found on the roadside, so it depended on luck... Probably only Xie Feng would dare to think that encountering an Immortal beast was luck rather than bad luck. If it were any other player they would no doubt be crying tears of blood and cursing their ancestors for their bad luck.

Although the Thousand Ice Cocatrix was four levels inferior to the Poisonous Commodus Dragon, it was far more powerful; so powerful that it could wipe out the lives of Xie Feng and his party in the blink of an eye. Precisely for this reason, the amount of prestige points he got as a reward was more than double compared to when he killed the Poisonous Commodus Dragon in the past.

However, Xie Feng's thoughts were currently focused on two things:

1) The drop! He was definitely looking forward to it!

But what Xie Feng was most looking forward to and most anxious about was, of course...

2) Pearl of Frozen Water!

Now that the Thousand Ice Cocatrix had been killed by him, of course, the Pearl of Frozen Water had to be somewhere in the beast's body since the Thousand Ice Cocatrix had swallowed it when it found it in the past!

Still, as he sprinted as if his life depended on it for fear that some penguin would appear and eat the Pearl of Frozen Water to become the Infernal Terror Penguin or something, Xie Feng shouted: "No, don't hide!"

Immediately after his voice fell silent, the system announced.

[Ding!...Worldwide Announcement: Attention all players in all Battle Zones around the world! Today, at 19:57 hours, the group of players from the Chinese Battle Zone; Shiva, Feng Yao, Rainbow Butterfly, One Slash to Kill, One Strike to Kill, One Arrow to Kill, have successfully defeated the Immortal grade beast 'Thousand Ice Cocatrix'. They all receive 8,000 gold coins as a reward. The Samsara world wishes everyone a happy reincarnation!]

[Ding!... Worldwide Announcement: Attention to all players in all Battle Zones around the world! Today, at 19:57 hours, the group formed by the players of the Chinese Battle Zone; Shiva, Feng Yao, Rainbow Butterfly, One Slash to Kill, One Strike to Kill, One Arrow to Kill...]

[Ding!.... Worldwide Announcement: Attention all players from all Battle Zones around the world!]

[Ding!... Worldwide Announcement...]

[Ding!...]

After a moment of silence to react to the five announcements made by the system, chaos descended.

It was Shiva again!

The number of times the name of this mysterious person had been heard in worldwide announcements since the beginning of the game had been so many that players in all battle zones had already forgotten the exact number. From the beginner's village as the first player to single-handedly defeat a powerful monster and beat the trial in Despair mode, to the latest announcements... Within a week, Shiva's name was part of the groups that defeated Immortal grade beasts!

What did this mean? Even a fool could understand that the reason other people's names appeared there was because Shiva was in that group! With the beast called Poisonous Commodus Dragon it was like that, and now with the Thousand Ice Cocatrix it was like that too!

* * *

In the American battle zone, a handsome golden-haired warrior with a spear as yellow as the distant sun and shining armor looked into the sky listening intently to the system announcements.

"What do you think? That guy, Shiva, looks hard to deal with." A priest standing next to the warrior casually commented after the announcements ended.

The warrior didn't respond and his lips curved into a sneer before he headed off somewhere.

Although he didn't get his answer verbally, the priest understood everything just from the warrior's smile. With a casual smile, he followed him.

These two were known as the Sun God and Priest of Immortality! The two of them were the two most powerful players in the entire American battle zone!

* * *

Not only the most powerful players in the United States, but most of the elites of the major battle zones of the whole world also began to keep a little eye on Shiva.

They, who were extremely skilled and had extreme self-confidence, would never recognize themselves as inferior to anyone!
