Chapter 937: This last sword is still a Sure-kill!

Within the demonic mist, so thick it felt substantial, sat a silent, dark, and deep forbidden figure.

He sat high upon a throne, his aura majestic, with wisps of Chaos Qi swirling around him. It made his face blurry and indistinct, leaving only those eerie, abyss-like eyes shining as brightly as candlelight.

"We finally meet."

Looking at the Chaos Demon God before him, Qi Yuan's lips curled into a relaxed smile as he spoke in a casual manner:

"Rahu, you're the one raising a giant dog without a leash, right?"

The moment he felt the other's aura, Rahu, perched upon his throne, finally raised his head slowly. He looked down condescendingly at the uninvited guest and spoke indifferently:

"A defeated opponent dares to be so presumptuous before this deity."

Qi Yuan met his gaze without a hint of fear, saying with a smile,

"Why talk so much nonsense? Hurry up and come meet your death, I'm in a hurry!"

Rahu remained silent, only slowly standing up from his throne. Above his head appeared a health bar of an incredibly exaggerated length.

"Chaos Demon God Rahu (First Form), Rank: 200"

"HP: 2,000,000 / 2,000,000"

"Strength: SSS-grade"

"Signature Skills: World-Ending Demonic Light, Heaven-Sealing Chains, Chaos Body, Void Traverse, Boundless Demonic Cloud…"

Feeling the terrifying pressure spreading from all directions, Qi Yuan's expression remained calm and composed. He raised his long sword in defiance and charged forward like an arrow released from a bow.

Rahu's eyes were dark as he pressed down with his palm. In an instant, countless terrifying beams of black light surged toward Qi Yuan.

Facing this world-destroying attack, Qi Yuan seemed completely oblivious. He didn't have the slightest intention of dodging; he simply swung his sword with a casual flick and said in a deep voice:

"This strike is a Sure-kill!"

Swish!

As the words fell, the overwhelming World-Ending Demonic Light suddenly froze. The ordinary iron sword tore through the Void Realm without any fancy flourishes and slashed into Rahu's body.

The entire process was effortless, as if it had been scripted in advance.

In the next moment, the health bar above Rahu's head emptied instantly, and his originally tall and majestic figure shattered like paper.

Qi Yuan stood with his sword, sneering as he said:

"Nothing more than this!"

Outside the Dungeon, all the players stared blankly, unable to believe their eyes.

An instant kill!?

The final boss's first form died just like that?

This was already the second consecutive time the instant kill effect had been triggered. Based on a 2% probability each time, the chance of this happening was approximately four in ten thousand!

Damn… what kind of ghost luck does this guy have?

Meanwhile, Qi Yuan stood with his sword and said with a sneer:

"It looks quite impressive, but in a real fight, it's nothing special!"

In the next instant, the vast demonic clouds within the demon palace suddenly began to boil, quickly condensing into a terrifying demon god covered in black armor. It was Rahu's second form.

Seeing this, Qi Yuan's expression didn't change. He swung his long sword again and said with a serious face:

"This strike is still a Sure-kill!"

His words became law. Rahu, who had just undergone Awakening into his second form, had his health bar emptied once again and collapsed to the ground.

A short while later, after completing more than ten consecutive absolute kills, Qi Yuan's lips curled up as he calmly surveyed the Chaos Demon God's final form.

"Chaos Demon God Rahu (Final Form), Rank: ???"

"HP: ∞∞∞∞∞ / ∞∞∞∞"

Looking at the string of question marks above the boss's head, the players outside the Dungeon were all stunned, unable to believe their eyes.

They had long since become numb to his Heaven-Defying feat of one-shotting everything, but seeing the final boss's exaggerated attributes now, they completely lost their composure.

Because the symbol '∞' represented infinity.

In other words, this boss's health bar… was endless.

An infinite health bar meant that no matter how high the combat power of a player who reached this stage was, it would be impossible to clear the game…

"Isn't this just a scam?"

Despite being extremely dissatisfied with Unreal Company's cheating tactics, all the players held their breath and focused on the upcoming battle.

On one side was the absolute Sure-kill effect, and on the other was an infinite health bar. They wondered which one was more powerful.

"Is the game about to end?"

Looking at the final boss that had completely abandoned all logic, Qi Yuan's expression remained as calm as ever. He slowly raised the sword in his hand and said word by word:

"This last strike is still a Sure-kill!"

Swish!

The moment the sword light flashed, everything before his eyes began to collapse rapidly. Rahu… the players… the long sword… everything shattered and returned to nothingness.

At the same time, countless memories flooded back into Qi Yuan's mind, causing his body to tremble as his expression gradually became strange.

Then, in a world of dead silence, a slender and petite figure walked out leisurely. It was none other than 'Xiao Yuner' from the novice village.

Looking at the contemplative Qi Yuan, 'Xiao Yuner's' big, watery eyes curved into crescents as she said with a smile:

"As expected of Master, your Disciple knew this trial wouldn't stop you!"

"Master?"

Hearing this form of address, Qi Yuan, who was still in a daze, felt his heart skip a beat. He subconsciously looked at the young girl before him and asked:

"Why do you call me Master?"

"It seems you haven't recovered your previous memories yet…"

As she spoke, 'Xiao Yuner's' form shifted, transforming into a young woman in a flowing long dress with beautiful features.

Chu Xueqian!

Seeing this young woman, Qi Yuan's pupils shrank. The suspicion that had troubled him for a long time was finally confirmed.

Yuan Wu Immortal Lord's fourth Disciple, Chu Xueqian, calling him 'Master' so confidently meant that he himself was Yuan Wu Immortal Lord!

While his thoughts were in a whirlwind, Chu Xueqian had already run over and grabbed his arm, asking with curiosity:

"Master, how exactly did you discover the flaw in that game world?"

"It's simple."

Qi Yuan calmed his emotions slightly and answered unhurriedly:

"Although the game world you created is extremely realistic, it is ultimately your own dream. In that dream, I am destined to be an outsider."

"Therefore, as long as I, the outsider, can maintain an independent will and not be eroded by your dream, I can gradually disrupt it."

"And the prerequisite for maintaining an independent will is to not level up. Because once you choose to level up, it means you accept the settings of the dream world, which only allows yourself to be influenced by the dream owner's will!"

At this point, he glanced at his surroundings and continued explaining:

"After the lesson from last time, I gave up the idea of leveling up. Only then could I maintain my own reason and gain the qualification to change the dream."

"And the most important characteristic of a dream is that you can realize any thought as you wish. Once I understood this, whether the Sure-kill effect of the star brilliance ring could stack or not was no longer important."

"As long as I want the star brilliance ring's Sure-kill effect to work in my heart, it will definitely work!"

"When the Sure-kill effect of the star brilliance ring conflicted with the Chaos Demon God's rules of immortality, this false dream naturally broke apart…"

There was one point Qi Yuan didn't mention: he possessed the [Dao Heart Clarity] talent, so his mind would not be easily annihilated.

If it were anyone else, they would have long been completely assimilated by this Immortal's dream, becoming a muddled 'game player'.

"I see."

Hearing this, Chu Xueqian nodded in realization, then said with a long face:

"Master, you have no idea how I've lived all these years. The feeling of being sanctioned by Heavenly Punishment is truly too painful."

"Thanks to that 'Great Dream Immortal Art' you gave your Disciple last time, I could find some fun while I was in deep sleep. Otherwise, I would have died of boredom long ago…"

Qi Yuan's eyelids twitched as he heard this, and he almost coughed up a mouthful of blood on the spot.

So this girl dragged me into her dream just to have some fun?
