VRMMO: The Unrivaled

Chapter 1475: Cyan Peak Halberd

"Watch out!"

Suren had already raised his halberd before the warning came. Golden light powerful enough to sweep the entire hall, and invisible pressure heavy enough to shatter the bricks on the ground erupted from it, and I was none other than its target. The empowered Splendid Light Slash struck me squarely across the chest!

BANG!

I shuddered like a leaf as the impact sent me sliding to the back and deleted over 2 million HP. Suren and I no longer belonged in the same weight class.

……

I had no choice though. I had to defeat him one way or another!

Whoosh!

While dashing past Suren, I aimed my wristguards at his halberd and disarmed him again!

"Damned brat!"

Suren roared as he struck me with his triple Barrier Break combo using his bare fists. Even without his weapon, he still managed to deal over 1.2 million damage to me. This guy’s power level was absolutely off the charts right now!

I pressed my palm against his chest and chanted in my head: God Binding Art!

It was a success. After I ascended and became a god, my skills’ success rate was much higher than before. For example, the God Binding Art now had a fairly good chance of affecting even a Divine Rank boss. It was exactly what I needed right now!

Suren roared in anger as he attempted to break out of the divine arms’ control with his halberd. However, he didn’t succeed.

The Xuanyuan Sword buzzed with power as I executed a devastating War Crush + Burning Blade Slash combo. It deleted 3 million HP from the boss's health bar and restored 1.5 million HP back to my own. Fifteen seconds were more than enough time for me to lifesteal back to full health and dish out over 10 million damage. Suren was a boss though. 10 million HP was almost nothing to him.

……

"I swear I will cut you to pieces, traitor! I swear!"

Suren completely flew off the handle as lightning began appearing from his halberd. Like a truck, he knocked me backward with several powerful slashes before following up with another Splendid Light Slash. In just the blink of an eye, my HP had dropped to one-third yet again.

Once more, I activated the Profound Armor skill of Rising Cloud and increased my Defense by 300%. Then, I stood my ground and clashed forcefully against Suren. Deadly energies ripped through the air like crazy, and weapon auras dug deep gorges into the ground as we clashed against each other. Unfortunately, this stalemate could only last for 15 seconds. The moment Profound Armor petered out, Suren immediately let out an arrogant roar, grabbed my chain armor with his bare hands, and thrust his halberd forward!

Puchi!

Pain ripped through my chest as the halberd skewered me. After all the punishment they took, both my Guardian Dragon Armor and Battle Astral Wind finally failed and let through a deadly hit. Blood flowed out of my wound like crazy, and a massive damage number rose from my head—

1,723,734!

Shit!

A deep frown marred my expression as I tried to react. However, Suren was attacking too rapidly for me to counterattack or heal myself. Even my Mad God Lunge was canceled by a punch the second I started channeling the energy!

It was at this moment a cold arrow struck Suren’s head, its starry tail shuddering from the force of impact. A stunned icon immediately appeared above Suren’s head and froze him temporarily.

"Phew…" I exhaled in relief before praising Uldan, "Well done, Uldan!"

Her giggle returned like a bell. "Watch out! This undead swordsman is extremely powerful!"

"Yeah!"

I used Xuanyuan Art to heal myself for 70% HP. The instant the visual effect was done, I used Mad God Lunge and knocked Suren a dozen or so steps away from me, stunning him once more. At this point, Suren only had 7% HP left. Moreover, I had been consciously attacking the injury on his weapon arm from the start. Very soon, only tiny shreds of flesh and bone were still connecting his arm to his body.

"This is how you do it! Keep it up!" Uldan cheered from afar.

The Xuanyuan shone brightly as I attacked again and again. I brought my sword down one more time and growled, "Sever!"

Pa!

The dark green bone finally broke in half, and Suren’s right arm and his halberd flew away from his shoulder. I received a system notice informing me that the boss had suffered massive damage and lost 50% of his Attack at the same time the halberd landed on the ground. I let out an obvious sigh of relief. It took an insane amount of effort, but I had finally dispelled the threat of death looming over my head. There was an ancient saying that said that you should view someone like a new person if you haven’t met them for three days. That was the case with Suren. At least five times my HP had fallen to 5% where he was but a hit away from killing me. Without Uldan’s assistance, I certainly would’ve died already!

……

Black blood spilled out of Suren’s severed arm and splashed against the ground. However, his gaze only grew more savage as he punched my shield with his remaining fist, roaring, "I will kill you, boy! You are the biggest shame of my life! I must kill you so you will know what the law of the undead truly means!"

Pu!

I stabbed Suren through the chest and out of the back. Then, I growled out a question, "Where is Xinran? Where is she?!!"

Suren simply laughed. "I told you I dropped her into the fifth floor after enjoying her body, and even that has been turned into ashes by the winds of the Purgatory. What, you can’t accept the truth?"

I turned my blade and turned his sneer into howls of pain. Clearly, not even an Asura God could stand having his innards being tortured like this.

"Where. Is. Xinran?!"

I uttered through gritted teeth. My tone was almost pleading at this point[1].

Thud!

Suren grabbed my arm and pulled both me and my sword closer. Then, he laughed into my face, "Xinran is dead! Hahahaha! She died while she was ravaged by monsters, so give it up, hahahaha! You’ll never see her again! You will never find Xinran even if you kill me! The last laugh is mine, hahahahaha…"

"I’ll show you a last laugh…"

I steeled my resolve and downed a Rank 14 potion. Then, while my sword was still inside Suren’s body, I activated Purple Dragon Howl[2]. The purple energy exploded his body like a balloon almost immediately and caused a column of golden light to shine down from above. Just like that, I leveled up to 258 while a shower of colorful loot landed on the ground.

……

"Xinran…"

There was a short weakened period after using Purple Dragon Howl, and this time I allowed it to bring my knees to the ground. My arms were covered in blood, and my mind in shambles. It was a most terrible battle.

Uldan walked up to me from behind and put a hand on my shoulder. She said softly, "Don’t worry. I don’t sense the Wind Singer’s soul fragments anywhere, so she definitely didn’t die anywhere near here. Moreover, I am certain she is not on this plane either. If she was, we would’ve picked up her divine energy already. Let’s continue to the fifth floor. With luck, we will sense her the moment we reach it…"

I nodded and rose back to my feet. First things first, I should check out Suren’s loot. I wonder what my cheap mentor would give me this time?

My heart raced a little when I saw the equipment on the ground. Suren was a Basic God, and I had 139 Luck. It wasn’t too much to hope for a Divine Armament, right? Right now, Archean Immortal and Ancient Immortal–grade equipment were everywhere, but Divine Armaments, even Lower Divine Armaments were extremely rare. Basically, all peak experts were searching for Lower Divine Armaments right now, although they certainly wouldn’t mind getting a Cambrian, Hadean, Archean or even Ancient Divine Armament…

The first piece of equipment to catch my eye was a halberd with cyan light circulating around it. It was the halberd Suren had been using to fight me as a matter of course. The second piece of equipment was a crimson metal armor with the image of a dragon—it actually looked a bit similar to the Ancient Divine Dragon—floating on the center. The third and final piece of equipment was a shiny ring. I checked out the halberd first. It was Suren’s weapon, so I had no doubt that it was a good weapon. I knew I was right the moment scorching energy seeped through my palm—

……

Tsk tsk, I wasn’t expecting a Middle Divine Armament, much less one that was this powerful. It had higher Attack and DPS potential than even the Sun, and I already knew who I was going to give it to: Li Chengfeng. He was very good with this type of weapon, and Cyan Peak Halberd was a Divine Armament that was even stronger than the unevolved Twelve Divine Armaments. He definitely wouldn’t mind this at all.

I moved onto the next equipment. The crimson armor had a murderous design and wisps of flames circulating around its metal. Once again, I felt a scorching hot energy entering my palm when I made physical contact with it. It was probably another top-tier piece of equipment, and I wasn’t wrong. Suren might be a shameless and despicable man, but his drop rate was absolutely deserving of praise—

Introduction: In ancient times, the noble dragons lived in the Moonlight Dragon City. After spending thousands of years injecting draconic energy into an unusual metal, the Dragon Speakers were able to forge another never-before-seen metal armor, the Armor of the Divine Oracle Scarlet Dragon. It is said that the wearer of the armor gains tenacity of dragons, and a massive boost to their vitality.

Level Requirement: 250

Reputation Requirement: 2,750,000

……

I was overjoyed. Finally, a replacement for my Guardian Dragon Armor had appeared! Although the Guardian Dragon Armor was a Sacred Armament, its level was too low, and it was a defensive equipment. Right now I needed more Attack and max HP, and the Armor of the Divine Oracle Scarlet Dragon perfectly fulfilled those needs!

I replaced the equipment without hesitation and gained a massive amount of HP and stats. A scorching heat washed over my body for an instant, and the next moment, it felt like the Scarlet Dragon Armor had become a natural part of my body.

1. T/N: seriously, it’s okay you ask the first and second time, but a third? He obviously doesn’t know shit, and even if he does why the fuck would he tell you anything? ☜

2. T/N: wait wait wait wait why? I don’t remember the agent healing MP, and if you only need to heal HP why the fuck would you drink a Rank 14 potion when you can just lifesteal it in one hit? ☜
