Ling Xu's confidence was not unfounded.
His saber strike was no simple feat.
It was one of his two minor divine abilities, Weak Point Break.
This ability was his ultimate killing move.
Activating it alone required 5 points of immortal energy.
Once triggered, it dealt 10 million true damage per second.
During the recent battle, Ling Xu had thoroughly analyzed Lin Feng's patterns.
The opponent's method of absorbing his damage was clearly a common technique from lightning magic.
This, paradoxically, put him at ease.
How powerful could lightning cultivation methods be in the lower realms?
He suspected these anomalies had only just touched upon the Exquisite tier, never even encountering the side-door tier.
However, after Lin Feng's lightning magic absorbed several of his attacks.
He had to admit.
The tier of the opponent's lightning magic was likely quite high.
Could it be the Profound tier?
He found it hard to believe.
But even Profound tier cultivation methods should not be able to absorb the damage from his fierce onslaught.
Only a supreme tier cultivation method could allow the opponent, with a mortal body, to contend against his immortal physique.
This thought made him green with envy.
His own cultivation method was merely of the orthodox tier.
How could a mere mortal possess a legendary supreme tier cultivation method?
But.
As he prepared his saber energy, he felt a sense of relief.
Even with a supreme tier cultivation method, after resisting him for so long, it must be nearing its limit, right?
Let's see how many more seconds you can hold out!
He held his saber, poised but not yet released, and sneered at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng wondered why the opponent's saber energy was so intense but he wasn't attacking.
The system notification he received made his heart sink.
You have been afflicted by the saber energy miasma effect of the opponent's minor divine ability [Weak Point Break], suffering 10 million true damage per second.
Damn it!
Lin Feng couldn't help but curse.
This attack was outrageously powerful.
His Thunder Control state could absorb 100 million damage, but it couldn't withstand this kind of output.
Lin Feng watched as the light of the lightning balls he had hidden grew dimmer, seemingly approaching their limit.
It was close to collapse.
Meanwhile, Ling Xu, facing him, was also growing impatient.
Although the effect of this saber energy miasma was incredibly potent, it wasn't something that could be unleashed freely.
It consumed 2 points of immortal energy every second.
Otherwise, a single strike towards anyone would be unbearable for more than a few seconds, let alone mortals, even other Immortal Sages.
While the effect seemed excellent currently.
And the opponent appeared to be struggling.
Continuing like this would also drain his immortal energy.
Once immortal energy was depleted, it would no longer provide amplification effects.
If he consumed too much immortal energy on this mortal, he would be unable to cope with any future dangers when he returned to the Heavenly Court.
To be safe, he decided he couldn't delay any longer and had to kill the opponent with a single blow!
As the saber energy miasma effect reached its fifth second, the light from his saber became even more dazzling.
The saber light instantly condensed and pointed towards Lin Feng.
A terrifying aura surged towards Lin Feng.
Ling Xu's eyes were filled with confidence.
This final strike was his trump card.
Not only could it ignore the opponent's defense.
It would also guarantee a tenfold critical damage bonus.
His base critical damage was already around tenfold.
With this additional bonus, it would be a hundredfold damage that ignored defense.
And with a five-fold damage advantage against weaker defenses.
Plus the final amplification from immortal energy.
The damage of this strike was his strongest burst.
My saber strike carries centuries of cultivation, how can you possibly contend with me?
He was certain that the opponent could not withstand this blow.
In the blink of an eye, the saber light rushed towards Lin Feng's body.
Whoosh!
Just as the saber light was about to touch Lin Feng's body.
A golden-yellow light flared.
Ling Xu was somewhat surprised.
A defensive spell?
However.
He was not worried at all.
His move was a divine ability. No matter what defensive spells you had, no matter how strong your damage absorption,
Even absolute defense or invincibility spells,
Under the priority of divine abilities, they would be completely useless.
Unless the opponent's defensive technique was also a divine ability.
Thinking this, Ling Xu found it amusing.
A divine ability? Impossible!
He had cultivated for hundreds of years to reach the Immortal Sage realm.
After accumulating for two hundred years in the Immortal Sage realm, and through a fortunate encounter, he was accepted as a disciple by a Golden Immortal. After fulfilling many merits, he was bestowed these two minor divine abilities.
Relying on these two minor divine abilities, he was considered a formidable powerhouse among Immortal Sages.
If not for his severe lack of treasures and poor defensive capabilities, why would he have remained stuck in the Immortal Sage realm?
This mortal, possessing a divine ability?
He felt he was being overly sensitive.
Even if this kid had exceptional talent and some background, it was impossible for him to possess a divine ability in the mortal realm.
Clang!
-110801250 (+99721125)!
This strike unleashed its full power.
Even after the mitigation by the golden-yellow light, it still dealt over 10 million damage.
Lin Feng's figure flashed, seemingly on the verge of death.
Ling Xu felt a surge of triumph.
A mere mortal, can't I handle you?
But what happened next shocked him.
Lin Feng, who had appeared to be killed, suddenly flickered and stood still as if nothing had happened.
Ling Xu's eyeballs almost popped out.
Who am I, where am I?
Could it be that this seemingly Level 0 opponent was actually an Immortal Sage?
Only a divine ability could resist my divine ability!
And.
The suspected divine ability of the opponent not only absorbed a large amount of damage.
It even possessed a resurrection effect?
He felt his convictions crumbling.
But deep down, he was still unwilling to believe it.
His ultimate move had been rendered futile.
Although this divine ability had cost him a lot of immortal energy.
He could still unleash normal attacks at will.
He gritted his teeth and struck again and again.
I don't believe how long your divine ability can last!
Beneath the golden-yellow shield, Lin Feng's eyes still held a trace of lingering fear.
When the opponent used his divine ability and the saber energy miasma began, he felt something was wrong.
By the fifth second, his Thunder Control state had reached its limit, almost unable to absorb any more damage.
Fortunately, he was quick-witted and immediately activated the Tribulation Gold Body.
But he hadn't expected.
The opponent's final attack to be so terrifying.
Even with a 1000% increase in defense and 90% damage absorption.
It still dealt over 10 million damage to him.
His maximum HP was only 500,000, making it impossible to resist.
Fortunately, the auto-revival feature of the Tribulation Gold Body, [Resurrect from Death], automatically activated.
[Resurrect from Death]: When the user dies, they can automatically revive once, regaining 100% HP and 50% MP.
After reviving, he broke out in a cold sweat.
Truly an Immortal Sage.
As terrifying as expected!
If not for the powerful characteristics of this divine ability, he would have perished here today.
And after enduring that earth-shattering, terrifying attack.
Although the opponent's saber light was still relentless.
Under the defense and HP boost of the divine ability, it was now insignificant.
-51278! (+38458)
-502500! (+376875)
The opponent's reduced damage was not due to a decline in strength.
It was due to another characteristic of Lin Feng's divine ability.
[Gold Body Protection]: Upon activating the divine ability effect, defense increases by 1000% and HP increases by 500% during the duration.
With a tenfold increase in defense and 90% basic damage absorption.
Although the opponent's saber light still looked formidable.
It was no longer capable of dealing fatal damage when it struck Lin Feng.
Of course.
Lin Feng was not one to just stand and take hits.
When the absorption state of Thunder Control ended, he naturally switched to attack mode.
Constrained by the range of the Tribulation Gold Body, he couldn't freely engage in rapid hit-and-run tactics.
However.
The lightning strike attack mode within Thunder Control could be easily unleashed.
-7523526!
-7523526!
Although the lightning damage unleashed in the Thunder Control state could not be affected by critical damage.
The output, combined with the damage from lightning sparks, was still considerable.
Most importantly, it was flexible to use.
Rumble!
Lightning bolts struck down from the sky, making Ling Xu's face grow darker and darker.
This lightning damage was somewhat unusual!
It even surpassed the power of a supreme tier cultivation method.
And.
He frustratingly realized.
At this rate, before he could defeat the opponent, he might be the one who couldn't hold on.
He needed to think of a solution.
His gaze sharpened, as if he had made a decision.
