I have an Apocalypse City
Chapter 1188 - Chapter 1188 Chapter 1190 Sword Technique_1

Chapter 1188: Chapter 1190: Sword Technique_1 Chapter 1188: Chapter 1190: Sword Technique_1 “It’s just an Elite BOSS, Brother Song, let me handle two of them!” Xin Ling, eyeing the farmers holding shovels, called out excitedly after checking their attributes.

Song Jian looked at Xin Ling and laughed, “This is a level 80 Elite, and you are more than twenty levels behind them. Your damage reduction is severe, can you actually beat them?”

Xin Ling gave Song Jian a defiant look and said, “Hmph, what’s so great about that? It’s just over twenty levels. The higher the level gap, the more experience compensation there is. I usually fight monsters above my level when I’m leveling up!”

“Fine, if you’re not scared, I’ll let two of them entertain you!” Song Jian nodded, “But we can’t fight here; if we destroy this Snake Vine Grass, we’ll be at a huge loss!”

“Yeah, this is a precious commodity that can be exchanged for Purple Crystals!” Xin Ling’s eyes gleamed.

Currently, very few players had access to Purple Crystals, only the very top players were aware of their existence, and obtaining them was extremely difficult. Ordinary treasures worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of Doomsday Coins could only be exchanged for a dozen or so Purple Crystals. It’s worth noting that Purple Crystals were a resource that could rapidly improve a player’s level–there was nothing more precious to a player than them.

Song Jian and Xin Ling turned tail and ran, with seven or eight farmer-lookalike monsters chasing behind them. Once they had drawn the monsters far from the farmland, Song Jian turned around, his thoughts flickering, and the Sword Qi burst into bloom on his Sky-breaking Sword, while seven Spirit Swords slowly appeared around him.

There were eight monsters, and Song Jian left one for Xin Ling, handling the rest himself.

With a powerful spirit, Song Jian had no difficulty controlling seven Spirit Swords simultaneously, attacking each monster with one sword. In the air, they were like swimming fish, relentlessly striking the monsters, while Song Jian held the Sky-breaking Sword, waiting for his Sword Qi to fully recover before summoning the Moon Essence Wheel, just in case of an unexpected event.

Across from him, Xin Ling had already dashed toward one of the monsters let past, her long sword imbued with only a three-inch Sword Qi glow. Relying on her Wandering Dragon Sword Technique, she fought deftly against this monster, which was over twenty levels higher than her, even as it spat out three-meter-long tentacles that couldn’t lay a scratch on her.

Song Jian was able to suppress the seven monsters with just seven Spirit Swords and, during his spare moments, even had the energy to watch Xin Ling fight. After observing for a while, he nodded slightly to himself. There must be some treasure on this girl that ignored level suppression; otherwise, she couldn’t inflict such high damage.

The monsters kept spitting out barbed tentacles, trying to entangle the Spirit Swords, but each time they got close, the Spirit Swords only needed to tremble lightly, effortlessly slicing the tentacles into segments and inflicting severe damage on the monsters.

However, it seemed as though the tentacles were endless, able to grow back quickly as long as the monsters weren’t dead, leading to a stalemate in the battle.

“I wonder if I can successfully execute the Mysterious Moonlight Sword now?” Watching the Spirit Swords fly through the air, forcing several monsters back, an additional thought arose in Song Jian’s heart.

One must know that before the Sky-breaking Sword had merged together, it used to be a set of five golden-quality swords, and back then, Song Jian managed to control five long swords, executing five different skills against five monsters at the same time. Now, although he had changed to Spirit Swords, Song Jian guessed that he should be able to execute them as well.

With a thought, one of the Spirit Swords that had dodged a monster’s tentacle attack suddenly vibrated in mid-air, lunging at the monster’s back with lightning speed. The sword left a faint afterimage in the air, piercing through the monster’s body and drawing out a puff of purple-red blood.

Swish, swish, swish~

The long sword pierced through the monster’s body continuously at high speed, creating more than a dozen transparent holes in an instant, and like a showerhead, it sprinkled out a large amount of blood.

At that moment, the monster’s body had floated up, reaching more than three feet above the ground. After being continuously pierced by nine swords, its body plummeted towards the ground, while the Spirit Sword spun in the air, sweeping past the monster’s neck. The monster, still with a third of its Vitality Points, was abruptly beheaded, and after its body fell to the ground, it couldn’t get up again and turned into a corpse.

“Is this a weak point attack combined with lowered defense?” Song Jian’s eyes brightened. It was well known that a monster in a floating state was completely defenseless, with its defense reduced to zero. Combined with slashing at the neck, a weak point, although it was not a critical hit, this strike was sufficient to instantly kill the monster with only a third of its Vitality Points left!

He glanced at his skill bar and saw that the Mysterious Moonlight Sword skill was in its cooldown phase. However, the five-second cooldown passed in a flash, and soon he would be able to use it again.

This time, Song Jian directly controlled several long swords at the same time to employ the Mysterious Moonlight Sword skill!

With a thought, the several long swords mimicked the exact same motion, slightly trembling in mid-air before fiercely thrusting towards their respective targets.

Clang, clang~

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~

Two of the monsters managed to block the Spirit Swords with their arms, but the rest of the Spirit Swords all pierced into the bodies of the monsters.

“Still not quite there…” Song Jian inwardly remarked as he watched the two Spirit Swords get blocked. Once the first strike of the Mysterious Moonlight Sword was defended against, the consecutive attacks would be interrupted and fail to produce the levitation effect, effectively resulting in a failed skill execution.

If this had been before, Song Jian wouldn’t have cared if one or two monsters dodged the strike, but now, he could clearly feel that he had much room for improvement in controlling multiple Spirit Swords.

Elder Gu Tutian had instructed them for a day and, although he hadn’t taught them any skills, his discourse on sword techniques was like pushing open a grand door, allowing them to glimpse the scenery within.

How much one could see depended on personal understanding. Now that they had a direction, all they needed to do was to keep going along that path!

Thud, thud, thud~

Several monsters in a floating state were harshly slashed by the Spirit Swords. With a “boom,” their bodies collided with the hard ground, creating a tremendous noise.

Before they had a chance to struggle to their feet, the Spirit Swords slashed across their necks, and the heads of several monsters rolled off.

The Spirit Swords that had slain the monsters moved through the air like swimming fish, drawing beautiful arcs, and then flew towards the other two monsters with depleted Vitality. A few seconds later, these two monsters also perished completely.

Ten seconds had passed, and the several Spirit Swords slowly faded away in mid-air. Turning his head, he saw Xin Ling was still trembling in combat with an Elite Level monster, whose Vitality Points had dropped to about a third. It seemed that in less than half a minute, Xin Ling would be able to kill the monster.

Song Jian smiled slightly and didn’t intervene. He simply picked up all the loot dropped by the monsters he had killed, then crossed his arms over his chest, leisurely watching Xin Ling fight.
