Finally, a BOSS you can’t instantly kill?

The BOSS's invincible shield was dyed in three colors.

This situation left Qin Feng even more bewildered.

How exactly was this shield supposed to be broken?

Soon, a full half-minute passed. Qin Feng had already suffered over a dozen shockwave attacks, and the base damage of these shockwaves had risen to over a hundred million.

At this point, the shockwave attacks could actually harm Qin Feng!

Moreover…

When Qin Feng was damaged by the shockwave but hadn't died yet, he noticed that various Upper Affix meters were starting to stack above his head.

"Good thing I'm immune to Nightmare, immune to Instant Death…"

Qin Feng raised his hand and directly summoned Grey Chicken.

It directly spat a 'Fountain of Chaos' towards Qin Feng…

The skill name was Fountain of Chaos, but what it spat was a mass of black flame, instantly putting Qin Feng in a state of Chaos immunity.

"Wait, I've always wanted to ask, why is this flame called Fountain of Chaos?"

Qin Feng couldn't help but ask.

Grey Chicken extended a wing and scratched its head: "Probably because we Hell Phoenixes don't have saliva, only 'mouth fire'… The fire we spit from our mouths is equivalent to human saliva?"

Qin Feng: "???"

Although a bit bizarre, Qin Feng now really had to rely on this Chaos immunity state…

He transferred all his Superior Resistance to the other four Upper Affixes.

Whispers, Corruption, Wither!

These three resistances were all maxed out, none could be missing.

Whispers aside, once the Corruption meter filled, all Qin Feng's buffs would become ineffective; if the Wither meter filled, all damage Qin Feng dealt would be reduced to one percent, making it impossible to fight this BOSS.

The only Upper Affix Qin Feng didn't allocate resistance to was 'Stripping'.

Because this World Spine · Mountain was completely immune to any Upper Affix… so being Stripped didn't matter.

Thus…

In just a short moment, the Stripping meter above Qin Feng's head filled, and all his offensive Upper Affixes became ineffective!

But Qin Feng didn't mind.

He observed a bit and found the BOSS's attacks increased the Upper Affix meters very slowly. At least for Qin Feng, who possessed the old days catastrophe snake tooth, it posed no threat.

"Come to think of it, if even my Superior Resistance couldn't hold, who else could?"

Having solved the Upper Affix problem, Qin Feng turned his attention back to the shield that had been dyed in three colors…

In fact, before Qin Feng attacked that shield, some players around, for whatever reason, had already attacked the BOSS.

Unfortunately, those attacks couldn't break its defense, causing no change to the shield.

Only when Qin Feng's Shadow Blade flew out did the shield change.

"Meaning, this shield can absorb damage?"

"Then why isn't my Poison Element damage reflected in it?"

Qin Feng frowned, then suddenly…

His Original Shadow Perception made him realize the three colors on the shield seemed to be 'seeping' into the shield!

"This shield seems to be five meters thick."

"With one Shadow Blade strike, the damage of those three colors spread and seeped a few millimeters into the shield…"

"Could it be that I need to attack the shield until the elemental colors in the attack completely penetrate it?"

Qin Feng realized his guess was likely correct.

But…

Was it really that simple?

"Let's try first."

Qin Feng didn't overthink it. Even if he died, he still had three lives. If worst came to worst and he ran out of revives, he could just kill some nearby small monsters to revive at full health…

So Qin Feng's trial-and-error cost was low.

Go for it!

Killing Shadow! Shadow Blade!

Qin Feng's five Shadow Clones, along with his main body, first used Shadow Warp to double their base attack, then simultaneously released Shadow Blades, unleashing maximum damage at the fastest speed!

Hundreds of Shadow Blade attacks per second, like a storm, landed on the giant snowy mountain body, striking the invincible shield displaying three colors.

"This mountain doesn't seem to have moved at all…"

"Then my tenfold movement speed damage boost from the Deathwing Angel can be fully utilized."

In this situation, each of Qin Feng's Shadow Blades could deal seven to eight trillion base damage!

Compared to the level 72 'Big Dipper Bro' encountered in the Abyss World corresponding to the Demon Capital, Qin Feng's casual Shadow Blade already dealt ten times the base damage!

Not to mention, Qin Feng and his five Shadow Clones together could throw over two hundred Shadow Blades per second!

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Invisible Shadow Blades landed on the invincible shield, causing the three colors on it to spread faster…

In front of Qin Feng, this BOSS's size was overwhelmingly huge.

Now attacking up close, Qin Feng felt like he was attacking a wall, not a BOSS…

"This wall is really hard!"

Fortunately, in Qin Feng's Original Shadow Perception, the three colors were continuously 'seeping' deeper into the shield!

Boom boom boom…

Shockwave attacks from the World Spine · Mountain continuously swept over Qin Feng.

Although Qin Feng was invisible, he still took the damage solidly. Thankfully, the damage wasn't too high and was still acceptable.

Just over a minute into the battle…

Under Qin Feng's relentless Shadow Blade assault, the light purple, ice blue, and pitch-black colors finally spread across the entire shield and… seeped five meters into it!

"There's a change!"

Qin Feng focused his gaze and saw the invincible shield instantly melt away!

In its place…

The BOSS's massive 119.8 billion health bar finally lit up, becoming a long, bright red bar stretching across the sky!

The BOSS's health bar was visible—good news!

But the bad news was…

——

[World Spine · Mountain has absorbed the power of Lightning Element, Ice Element, and Dark Element, becoming immune to damage from these three elements for the next 60 seconds!]

(Note: The BOSS's invincible shield will reset after 60 seconds!)

——

When this system prompt echoed in Qin Feng's mind, he finally understood the BOSS's mechanics!

"First, focus fire to penetrate its shield…"

"After breaking the shield, there's one minute of output time."

"But during this, the three elements dealing the highest damage will be completely immune for the next 60 seconds of output!"

Lightning Element, Ice Element, and Dark Element—this BOSS was completely immune to them!

At the same time.

Qin Feng kept throwing Shadow Blades at the BOSS.

Only damage numbers of a few tens of thousands kept popping up above the BOSS's head—the Poison Element damage portion of the Shadow Blades that wasn't immune…

Sensing those pitiful damage values, White Sprout's soul sent a message: "Congratulations, congratulations, little Shadow brother! Finally met a BOSS you can't instantly kill? Worth celebrating!"

Receiving this soul message, Qin Feng's expression turned a bit odd.

Lightning Element, Ice Element, and Dark Element, although the BOSS was immune…

He still had other methods!

In his hand, he still held Instant Extinction, dealing pure physical damage.

Of course, Qin Feng could see that when the BOSS's health bar lit up, it had small tick marks… These small ticks meant the BOSS possessed the 'injury limit' attribute!

Each instance of damage couldn't break through any single tick at once; multiple hits were needed to reduce the BOSS's health bar.

This was another form of 'injury limit', but it still fell within the category of injury limit.

"Having an injury limit… not a big problem."

"The Blessing of the Death Goddess can finally be put to good use."

Gripping the soft White Sprout Blade, Qin Feng's lips curled slightly!

Disregarding the earlier mechanics handling, now that the BOSS's health bar was visible, what would happen next was completely predictable!
