Is this a BOSS that can only be defeated by humans?!

This was the disadvantage of Qin Feng tackling it alone.

If it were a team raid, the BOSS of this type would have limited divinity to suppress the player's Order.

It could only suppress and offset a portion of a portion of players' Order.

But Qin Feng was now challenging the BOSS by himself…

It was equivalent to all Order being ineffective in front of this BOSS.

BOSSes that could suppress player Order were not common, and once they appeared, they were all quite troublesome BOSSes. As for this 'Gift of the Fallen · Five-Colored Withered Leaf', it was a special Bloodline BOSS summoned by assembling the Ancient God of Judgment's mask, so it was only normal for it to possess this suppression ability.

Fortunately, in terms of Superior Resistance, Qin Feng had always maxed it out.

Ordinary Upper Affixes simply couldn't affect him.

Even the companion butterflies summoned by these five Ancient-Grade BOSSes only carried about two thousand points of Upper Affix strength with each attack.

Currently, Qin Feng distributed his Superior Resistance daily, averaging it out except for Instant Death Resistance, with all six types of Superior Resistance at 16684 points.

Furthermore, the overall stacking of the Superior Gauge was slowed by 99.3438%, which meant it was slowed to 1/152 of its original speed!

Each time the companion butterflies attacked Qin Feng, they could only stack 0.08% of the Superior Gauge, less than one-thousandth!

Although those streams of light flying and tracking him could hit Qin Feng four or five times per second, even combined, they couldn't stack even one percent of the Superior Gauge, posing no threat to Qin Feng whatsoever.

However, the physical damage and elemental damage brought by these streams of light actually posed some threat to Qin Feng…

Due to the 'Fragile' status, Qin Feng's Solid Defense attribute was ineffective, causing his defense and elemental resistance to be 100% penetrated, which was quite fatal for Qin Feng!

Once damage wasn't Evaded, Qin Feng would directly lose 85.46 million health points… which was the Damage Limit!

Through the system log, Qin Feng could see that without this 7% 'Damage Limit', he would take 140-150 million damage from these companion butterflies' attacks each time.

“Completely ignoring my defense and resistance.”

“I can only rely on damage reduction to resist this damage…”

“It seems my damage reduction isn't high enough!”

Qin Feng's highest damage reduction still came from the God of Bones' Reincarnation Challenge buff.

Aside from that, it was basically from the armor he wore.

Compared to some powerful tank classes, he definitely couldn't measure up…

Originally, Qin Feng's advantage lay in transforming Constitution and Spirit into higher physical defense and elemental resistance through the Spirit Devourer Bloodline, but with Solid Defense ineffective, he completely lost this advantage.

So, it was only normal for Qin Feng to become 'squishy'.

Fortunately, even a squishy Qin Feng wasn't that easy to kill.

As Qin Feng was continuously attacked, his Shadow Veil continuously stacked, quickly reaching 100 layers!

Originally, relying solely on his normal Evasion rate, he only had about a two-thirds chance to Evade the opponent's attacks. This Evasion rate was completely insufficient to keep Qin Feng's health in a healthy state.

Because in the 'Fragile' state with the mask on, all healing effects only applied 1%!

Through the Blazing Dance special effect, Qin Feng could originally recover 100% health with each Evasion, but now he could only recover 1%.

Being attacked three times and hit once was equivalent to losing 7% health, then recovering 2% health… overall, it was a net loss.

Even with the holy authority imprint's effect of recovering 33% health every 0.1 seconds, in the fragile state, it could only recover 0.33%…

This truly caused Qin Feng's health to drop to a quite dangerous level!

Fortunately, Qin Feng's Shadow Veil was too powerful. As Shadow Veil stacked up, his absolute Evasion rate surged!

Originally, there was a one-third chance of being hit.

When Shadow Veil was fully stacked, the chance of being hit was less than one five-hundredth!

This allowed Qin Feng to easily withstand the damage from the five butterflies by relying on Evasion-based healing.

“Even I'm struggling a bit. Without Shadow Veil, I'd have to use some invincibility skills…”

“How would anyone else survive this?”

“Even with dozens of healers, they might not be able to keep up! Not to mention they'd also have to help clear the Superior Gauge…”

The difficulty of this Ancient-Grade Bloodline monster had already surpassed the previous Death Eye just at the start!

Even with Qin Feng's Shadow Veil fully stacked, its duration was only a little over three seconds, because the BOSS shortened the buff duration.

This meant that only by continuously being attacked and continuously stacking Shadow Veil could Qin Feng barely maintain a full 100 layers of Shadow Veil status.

In this state, Qin Feng was practically invincible!

During this time, Qin Feng also observed some environmental changes.

Every now and then, the BOSS 'Five-Colored Withered Leaf' would drop light pillars of different colors from the sky.

The colors of the light pillars perfectly corresponded to the colors of the five companion butterflies!

Qin Feng discovered that as long as a companion butterfly moved to and stayed in the area of its corresponding colored light pillar, that companion butterfly's attack would be enhanced, with its damage, attack frequency, and Upper Affix all doubling.

In less than a second, that companion butterfly would fly out of the light pillar area, and its enhanced state would last for 5 seconds.

“Why don't the companion butterflies stay in their corresponding colored light pillars all the time?”

Qin Feng had this question.

“Since you don't want to stay in the light pillar, I'll force you to stay in the light pillar and see…”

So, Qin Feng took advantage of the black butterfly flying into the black light pillar's range and getting its attack enhanced, directly using a Void Lock!

Click, click, click…

Nine Void Lock chains instantly locked the black butterfly in mid-air!

At the same time, Death Disaster!

One hundred Small Eyes of Death appeared around Qin Feng, all locking onto that black butterfly, continuously extending its immobilized state from being locked by the Void Lock…

Just three seconds after the black butterfly was trapped in the black light pillar area.

Qin Feng indeed found that the 'Damage Limit' buff under the black butterfly's health bar disappeared!

Originally, attacking a companion butterfly could only forcefully cause 1 health point of damage.

But now…

Qin Feng flew forward directly, raising his hand and bringing down his blade!

—

-6.45 trillion (Weak Point Attack)!

—

This was a perfectly ordinary strike from Qin Feng, without any extra damage-boosting methods…

A single Annihilation Blade directly slew the black companion butterfly!

However, even though Qin Feng instantly killed this black butterfly, he couldn't help but complain, “This difficulty is too damn high! Besides my Void Lock, how easy is it for anyone else to control this BOSS-template butterfly within the light pillar?”

“Is this even a BOSS meant for humans to fight?”

That being said, once the method was found, the rest was simple!

Qin Feng followed suit!

Then he seized the opportunity to forcibly control the red butterfly, yellow butterfly, blue butterfly, and white butterfly… one by one within the light pillar's range, locking them with Void Lock, and then slaying them!

When all five companion butterflies were cleared, Qin Feng found that the abilities of those five companion butterflies were all tripled and concentrated on the BOSS's main body!

That is, from the moment Qin Feng killed the first black butterfly, the BOSS gained the black butterfly's abilities.

Three times the attack, three times the attack speed, and three times the Upper Affix, directly surging towards Qin Feng like a tide!

Fortunately, Qin Feng's strength had already completely crushed the Ancient-Grade level in terms of stats.

Even if the final BOSS possessed three times the destructive power of all five companion butterflies combined… it no longer posed any threat to Qin Feng.

Because the BOSS's main body's health bar was now visible, no longer in an invincible gray state!

“The Ancient God of Judgment's mask shouldn't just grant an Ancient-Grade Bloodline…”

“Especially since Asha Xisi specifically instructed me to come here, there must be more to it.”

“Let me see what else there can be!”

Qin Feng used a Shattering Void Shadow Kill, instantly creating four Shadow Clones to besiege the grayish-white withered leaf hovering in the sky!
