#723 · 723 of 2210

Shadow just needs to kill the BOSS.

Bai Ya couldn't even be bothered with Qin Feng's 'wandering hands' anymore…

She quickly replied, "It seems the carrier is gone, and those souls have escaped, finally gathering together."

Through Bai Ya's perception, Qin Feng quickly realized that the tens of thousands of souls had gathered together, forming a super-sized soul aggregate!

Additionally, there were five soul bodies that had not been annihilated.

They were gathered separately around the giant soul body.

"One big one, five small ones?"

Qin Feng narrowed his eyes.

His Original Shadow Perception told him…

Within the ruins of the Hideout, five players, though cut into pieces, had actually re-adhered themselves!

These five players, stitched together from fragments, were surrounding a peculiarly shaped oil lamp.

Inside the oil lamp, a wisp of flame burned…

That should be the carrier of the giant soul body Bai Ya mentioned!

"Souls need a carrier to exist long-term."

This was something Bai Ya had said before.

Qin Feng observed for a moment and found that… the oil lamp possessed a certain Inviolable characteristic, and as long as the oil lamp was not extinguished, the giant soul body would also not be extinguished!

The five fragmented players stitched together around the oil lamp were the oil lamp's final 'protective umbrella'.

As long as those five players didn't die, the oil lamp would not be destroyed.

Qin Feng checked the identities of those five players and found that they were none other than the Guild Master and four Vice Guild Masters of the God's Hand guild.

At this moment, protected by the soul body within the oil lamp, they had not been completely killed by the World Spine!

To be precise…

They could no longer be considered 'alive'.

"We are invincible! We are the chosen people of God!"

"Our people… our people were killed by these weapons…"

"Ahhh! But God is Inviolable!"

"That's right, God is Inviolable, and we are Inviolable…"

"Shadow! World Spine! What can you do to us?!"

Those five guys, three old men and two middle-aged men, were all prostrating themselves on the ground with fervent expressions!

They had absolutely no offensive capabilities.

But they believed they wouldn't die!

After all, their bodies were protected by the NPC they called 'God', so even if they were dismembered, they wouldn't die; even if their lifespan was sucked dry, they wouldn't die, unless that NPC died first…

Another immortal paradox!

To kill A, you must first kill B, but to kill B, you must kill A…

It seemed completely unsolvable!

"Well, I'll be."

Qin Feng clicked his tongue in wonder, which reminded him of Shulajimir, the crown prince he had encountered in South Korea a while ago.

Shulajimir controlled a massive number of corpses and at the time also thought he had entered an immortal paradox.

But now Shulajimir… had become a diligent subordinate under Qin Feng.

"However, this method of the soul NPC must also consume divinity."

"It's impossible to protect those few people indefinitely."

The NPC wanted to protect those few people to protect its own carrier, the 'oil lamp,' as that oil lamp was 'invincible' and Inviolable due to the existence of those players.

Theoretically speaking, the NPC had indeed achieved basic immortality.

But that was only theoretical.

"Although those guys are immortal, each death consumes the soul NPC's divinity."

"Furthermore, while under the NPC's protection, they cannot leave the Hideout's range and are completely restricted in their Freedom…"

Qin Feng shook his head.

Although that NPC had some tricks, for now…

Qin Feng didn't want to think too much about it.

Because the location of that NPC's soul was already revealed before Qin Feng's eyes!

"Before, the souls were scattered around, and I didn't know which was the main body."

"Now, am I still going to joke around with you?"

Qin Feng maintained his invisibility and soul invisibility, his Death Wings carrying him like a meteor as he flew, drawing his White Sprout Blade from a distance!

At this instant, a graceful purple snake woman's figure flickered into existence beside Qin Feng.

The snake woman raised her hand and unleashed a Magic Energy Outbreak, putting Qin Feng into a state of reduced divinity consumption!

"Soul Harvest."

An invisible and intangible rule effect was unleashed from the White Sprout Blade!

It instantly struck the spatial area where the oil lamp was located from a distance!

"Uh—"

A sound of extreme surprise and disbelief seemed to faintly emanate outwards…

Immediately following was the shattering of the oil lamp!

Bang!

Under the three thousand metal weapons, Qin Feng, in stealth, instantly annihilated the soul NPC's main body with Soul Harvest and immediately absorbed it into Judgment Land!

"Ah?"

"Ah?!"

"Ah!!!"

The five 'fragment stitchers,' all wearing turbans, who were the five high-ranking members of the God's Hand guild, had just been incredibly arrogant, believing that neither Shadow nor Mythic BOSSes could do anything to them.

But…

In an instant, the soul NPC they relied on for survival was killed on the spot!

From beginning to end, they had no idea what had happened.

Immediately following was an invisible Magic Shadow Blade, which transformed into three, and the Magic Shadow Blades instantly flew in, transforming into three invisible circular blades in the field, directly shredding the five people's bodies into smithereens!

Qin Feng, as usual, absorbed them into Judgment Land.

Immediately after, Qin Feng had no time to think further.

Because of his actions, the metal weapons across the entire field had begun to riot, wildly slashing at the surrounding space!

Various elemental storms, sword lights, and blade shadows instantly formed an absolute death zone!

Qin Feng used two Shadow Warps to directly fly out of that dangerous area.

"That NPC should provide a lot of divinity上限…"

"I can check later what abilities and effects that NPC has."

"As for now, let's take down the World Spine first!"

Qin Feng flew back to the young man 'Aladdin,' who was hiding behind a rock more than ten kilometers away, and while invisible, patted his shoulder, inviting him to join the team.

"I see you have a skill that can boost my all-attributes by 12%, want to give it a try?"

Qin Feng quickly said in the team channel.

The young man 'Aladdin' was startled at first, then somewhat excited, "No problem, Lord Shadow! Please enjoy…"

This guy's profession was 'Eagle Singer,' said to be a descendant of the ancient Persian Empire's royalty.

It must be said, his leadership abilities were indeed good.

Otherwise, Qin Feng wouldn't have chosen him to be his spokesperson in this area.

And as his song began to play…

Qin Feng's body immediately began to stack buff states, his all-attribute amplification starting from 1% and steadily increasing!

"Boro boro delam toro toro nemikhad…"

A series of cheerful songs emanated, and in just three seconds, Qin Feng gained a 12% final all-attribute amplification state.

And with Qin Feng's buff duration bonus, this state lasted a full 134.2 minutes, which is over two hours!

"Shaba, hi! Shaba, hi!"

Aladdin was still singing and dancing…

Qin Feng, meanwhile, directly took to the sky, his Death Wings carrying him across the firmament, covering more than ten kilometers in less than two seconds.

Facing the three thousand metal weapons filling the sky, Qin Feng directly unleashed Killing Shadow!

His main body plus five Shadow Clones, in just one second, threw a total of seven to eight hundred Magic Shadow Blades towards the sky where the weapons were located!

And when those Magic Shadow Blades hit their targets, they would not only ricochet off each other but also leave a huge spinning blade in place!

—

– 94.42 million (Weak Point Attack)!

– 92.79 million (Weak Point Attack)!

– 93.27 million (Weak Point Attack)!

…

—

From Qin Feng's perspective, countless damage numbers appeared above the metal weapons filling the sky!

Although the individual damage numbers weren't truly high, as Qin Feng, being a Great Xia player, suffered an extremely absurd damage reduction against this BOSS… the damage frequency was simply too fast!

In just one second, each weapon was attacked an average of over a thousand times!

In the second second, the number of attacks each weapon received was even higher, reaching several thousand!

Clang! Clang!

One metal weapon after another shattered in an instant, but the remaining metal weapons were extremely agile, spreading out directly, actually avoiding the ricochets of the Magic Shadow Blade and the spinning blade areas!

And…

Those shattered metal weapons actually burst into flames, then their fragments merged and reforged!

"What the heck, they really revived?"

Qin Feng looked out and saw the sky filled with the fiery glow of those metal weapons reforging.

All the shattered metal weapons were reforged and reappeared in a short instant!

And…

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Three thousand weapons, simultaneously unleashed terrifying offensives!

Without a hate target, the attack range of these weapons increased by dozens of times!

And some weapons emitted terrifying area effects, applying continuous control effects like slowing and binding to all players within the range!

Even Qin Feng's Inviolable affix was consumed at an extremely fast rate.

"This damage… so high!"

Qin Feng instantly flew to a higher altitude; just now, he was caught off guard by two sweeping lightning strikes from two lightning swords, each lightning strike actually dealing 899,000 damage to Qin Feng.

Meaning it directly reached his Damage Limit!

As expected of a weapon-type BOSS, this damage posed a much greater threat to Qin Feng than the previous second World Spine.

Of course, in reality, it was just that…

After all, Qin Feng possessed the 'Shadow Arc' effect, delaying all damage by 40.26 seconds.

"Although this World Spine has many buffs, it's still just a Mythic BOSS."

"Since it's a Mythic BOSS, it won't have the ability to shorten my buff duration."

This 40.26-second damage delay was simply too safe for Qin Feng!

"However, why can these weapons be reborn?"

"Do they need to be destroyed all at once?"

Qin Feng frowned, looking at the three thousand weapons flying wildly across the sky, even starting to scatter to the north, south, east, and west, feeling very tricky…

He decided to try killing them one by one to see if he could find the pattern of the BOSS's rebirth from fire.

At the same time.

The young man 'Aladdin,' who had applied a 12% final all-attribute buff to Qin Feng, was hiding under a large rock, furtively watching the three thousand weapons flying wildly in the sky of this area.

Each weapon was enough to leave him without a burial place!

And in this environment, Aladdin still had to find a way to deal damage to the BOSS once.

"As expected of Shadow, he can even fight a BOSS like this…"

"Being invisible means he can do whatever he wants?"

Aladdin felt his scalp tingle; he could hardly imagine how a BOSS like this should normally be fought!

Of course, what he worried about more was himself.

"Shadow only needs to kill the BOSS."

"But I have too many things to consider…"

Aladdin had a long face; every time a weapon flew by, he would shrink further under the big rock, completely daring not to make a move.

"It seems I can only…"

He somewhat reluctantly released his mount, an eagle: "Go, just attack it once…"

But his eagle had only flown out of the rock cave for about ten meters.

Bang!

A fire-attribute spiked club descended from the sky, slamming into his eagle and directly smashing it to smithereens…

Splat.

Aladdin felt something flying towards him, quickly reached out to grab it, and upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the cooked wing of his own eagle.
