Outside the dungeon, the bands of shimring light still lingered.
A gust of wind blew by, and Lin Moyu and Mu Xianxian erged, both a little dazed.
Why... was there no one around? No humans, no Demons, no Dragonkind.
A beam of light descended from the sky as Mo Yun flew down, quickly recounting what had happened to Lin Moyu. The situation that had unfolded was completely unexpected.
Because Lin Moyu had entered the dungeon, followed by multiple human parties, the balance between the three factions outside was disrupted. In the end, instead of fighting one another, everyone had gone into the dungeon to face the Demonic Dragons.
Lin Moyu said n a quiet voice, "It's a good thing I didn't take you along."
Mo Yun quickly grasped the aning behind his words. If she had gone into the dungeon, she could have been in danger.
Mo Yun responded softly, "Mhm. You should keep grinding. The Demonic Dragon Hall could disappear at any mont."
"Alright. Stay safe out here." Lin Moyu took out the Advanced Cooldown Talisman he had received from Bai Yiyuan and reset the cooldown for both him and Mu Xianxian.
The Advanced Cooldown Talisman was specially prepared for the Demonic Dragon Hall. Unlike the Elentary version, it could be used 100 tis. Even if both of them used it together, they could raid the dungeon 50 tis. With the cooldown reset, they re-entered the dungeon.
As soon as they stepped in, they heard a rumbling noise. A towering, pitch-black mountain lood before them, with a massive boulder rolling down, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Mu Xianxian swallowed nervously. "It's the Black Demonic Dragon... The hardest one to defeat in the Demonic Dragon Hall. Should we switch?"
Lin Moyu thought for a mont, "Let's give it a try first."
He wasn’t the type to back down without giving things a try first. Besides, he had his own plans.
Trusting his judgnt, Mu Xianxian remarked, "Last ti it took us 33 minutes in total. I wonder how long it’ll be this ti."
"It’ll be much faster!" Lin Moyu dashed forward as he spoke.
In the second run, since he was already familiar with the Demonic Dragon Hall, Lin Moyu wasted no ti.
The cavern ahead was vast and pitch-dark. The Black Demonic Dragon was the strongest boss in the Demonic Dragon Hall, and Lin Moyu was eager to face it.
In their previous battle with the Ice Demonic Dragon, the entire run had taken 33 minutes, but more than 20 minutes were spent just getting there. The actual combat had only lasted about 10 minutes.
This ti, Lin Moyu moved swiftly, nearly choosing to ride on a skeleton’s back.
In just six minutes, they reached the end of the cavern, where the Black Demonic Dragon lay waiting.
The cavern was engulfed in darkness. The only light ca from the Soul Blaze burning in Lin Moyu’s palm, casting an eerie glow over the Black Demonic Dragon.
It was clearly larger than the Ice Demonic Dragon, over 40 ters tall and more than 70 ters in length. Its ink-black tail was lined with sharp barbs and its dark scales glead with an oily sheen, looking impenetrable.
Their arrival stirred the Black Demonic Dragon from its slumber. It didn’t take Lin Moyu seriously, its eyes filled with provocation. It exhaled a breath of hot air, and a hurricane of wind instantly swept through the cavern.
Lin Moyu didn’t hesitate. He responded to the Demonic Dragon’s challenge with action. In a flash, his undead legions appeared and launched their attack. The Skeletal Mages' spells hit first, followed closely by Lin Moyu’s Detection spell.
[Black Demonic Dragon (hell rank boss)]
[Level: 56]
[Strength: 150,000]
[Agility: 60,000]
[Spirit: 40,000]
[Physique: 200,000]
[Skills: Earthquake Blast, Dragon Tail Swipe, Frenzied Charge]
[Traits: 80% Elental Damage Reduction, 80% Physical Damage Reduction, Curse Effect Greatly Weakened, Health Greatly Enhanced]
It was another level 56 hell rank boss, but its total attributes exceeded the Ice Demonic Dragon by 10,000, reaching 450,000. While the difference seed small, the distribution of the attributes was entirely different.
The Black Demonic Dragon had 150,000 points in strength and 200,000 in physique, with 80% reduction to both elental and physical damage. It was another high-attack, high-defense boss, and its skills suggested that it could obliterate Lin Moyu’s skeletons in an instant.
In the previous battle with the Ice Demonic Dragon, over 150 Skeletal Warriors had fallen. This ti, the losses could be even more severe.
Lin Moyu shivered slightly, his mind made up. However, just as he was about to act, the Black Demonic Dragon’s eyes glowed an ominous red. A sense of unease crept over him, as if sothing terrible was about to happen.
Sure enough, the Demonic Dragon let out a deafening roar and charged directly at the Skeletal Warriors. Despite having wings, it didn’t take flight. Instead, it folded them back and rushed along the ground, cloaked in a black light that radiated from its body, pressing on like an armored juggernaut.
Skill: Frenzied Charge!
Lin Moyu tried to recall his Skeletal Warriors, but he was a step too late. So of them were sent flying, while others were instantly crushed. A stream of death notifications flooded in as the skeletons were decimated.
Lin Moyu's mind went numb.
This guy fought without rcy, imdiately unleashing a devastating skill. The Black Demonic Dragon plowed through the Skeletal Warriors like an unstoppable force.
The Demonic Dragon halted abruptly, its eyes gleaming with malice. It stomped down with trendous force.
Skill: Earthquake Blast.
The entire cavern shook violently.
"Damn it!" Lin Moyu cursed, alard. He quickly issued the command to retrieve the Skeletal Warriors. But it was already too late.
The Skeletal Warriors had already been struck by the attack, leaving Lin Moyu unable to recall them. The source of the assault was the ground itself. A deep rumble echoed through the cavern, and a terrifying wave of energy surged from the ground, far more devastating than the Frenzied Charge.
In the wake of this attack, countless skeletons were bound to fall, likely over a thousand.
"Go all out!" Lin Moyu gritted his teeth, activating the Enhance Troops skill as the 兵 rune on his hand glowed.
The undead legions' attributes surged, allowing them to brace against the Black Demonic Dragon's ferocious attack.
Despite the onslaught, the Skeletal Warriors fought back, while the Skeletal Mages unleashed a barrage of spells. Lin Moyu triggered Damage Curse, and the Lich Generals focused entirely on healing the troops.
Suddenly, Mu Xianxian charged forward.
“Co back! Are you crazy?” Lin Moyu shouted, alard.
Her Total Defense skill’s cooldown hadn’t ended, and without it, she’d be vulnerable against the Black Demonic Dragon. The Bone Armor alone might not hold.
But Mu Xianxian didn’t respond, her eyes blazing with fierce determination. Her Combat Instinct talent had fully kicked in, giving her a unique vision of the battle. She darted toward the Black Demonic Dragon, effortlessly dodging its attacks, exploiting the gaps in its skill.
By the ti she reached the Black Demonic Dragon, she hadn’t taken a single hit. Lin Moyu could only watch in astonishnt—Combat Instinct was far more powerful than he had imagined.
Without hesitation, Mu Xianxian launched fireworks, turning the Black Demonic Dragon into a shimring target. Its aggro shifted instantly, and with a furious roar, it lashed out with a devastating tail sweep.
Skill: Dragon Tail Swipe!
Despite Combat Instinct being in effect, the Demonic Dragon’s speed was too overwhelming to avoid. Instead of dodging, Mu Xianxian swung her maul at the incoming tail, using her one combat skill—Daze.
With a thunderous crash, she was sent flying into the wall, large cracks splintering across her Bone Armor. Lin Moyu exhaled in relief. As long as the Bone Armor held, she’d survive. But then his eyes widened in disbelief.
The Black Demonic Dragon had been stunned! The Daze skill had actually worked…
"What incredible luck!" Lin Moyu exclaid.
Five seconds—especially under the Enhanced Troops’ effect—could decide the fate of the Black Demonic Dragon. Even with its 80% damage reduction, it couldn’t withstand the empowered assault.
Lin Moyu joined the attack, unleashing Soul Blaze with rapid succession. The Skeletal Warriors and Skeletal Mages unleashed their skills in a frenzied burst. For those five critical seconds, the undead legions pumled the Black Demonic Dragon with everything they had.
Though powerful, it was still just a Level 56 hell rank boss. Its health couldn’t last under the onslaught. Before the stun effect faded, the Demonic Dragon let out an agonized cry and collapsed.
Mu Xianxian ran back, excitent lighting her face. "We did it! We killed it!"
Lin Moyu smiled. "You’ve done it again."
She giggled, "I’m pretty impressive, aren’t I?"
