Su Fan let out a roar, urging Xiao Xue'er to escape.
At the same time, Su Fan charged towards the Rainstone Old Freak.
"Overestimating yourself!"
The Rainstone Old Freak sneered, showing no fear as Su Fan approached. He waved his hand, conjuring a stone shield in front of him.
Shadow Dance Slash!
Su Fan unleashed a direct Shadow Dance Slash.
However, the stone shield blocked the entire blade.
But Su Fan's combo count had increased.
Bang!
With the final strike, the stone shield in front of the Rainstone Old Freak shattered violently.
This sent a jolt of surprise through the Rainstone Old Freak.
"To possess such strength at such a young age, it seems I underestimated you."
The Rainstone Old Freak became serious. Su Fan's displayed attack power made him feel a hint of danger.
Improvise!
Su Fan wasted no words, charging forward again, engaging in close-quarters combat.
Against a spellcaster, the most crucial point is to give them no breathing room. Once they have time to cast high-level spells, the battle is over.
"Water Ripple!"
The Rainstone Old Freak extended his hand, casting an instant spell. A mirror-like surface appeared on Su Fan's path.
Su Fan's sword strike hit the mirror, causing it to ripple. A rebound force sent Su Fan flying back several meters.
The Rainstone Old Freak seized this opportunity to cast a high-level spell.
Su Fan glanced back at Xiao Xue'er. She hadn't run far yet; Su Fan had to hold on!
"Drip Through Stone!"
The Rainstone Old Freak condensed a single drop of water at his fingertip, which instantly shot towards Su Fan.
It was so fast that Su Fan had no time to dodge.
Golden Bell Shield!
Su Fan could only use the Golden Bell Shield to endure the attack.
Bang!
The water droplet struck the Golden Bell Shield, shattering it instantly. The residual impact force sent Su Fan flying back several more meters.
The Rainstone Old Freak was surprised again.
"Good lad, you have quite a few tricks up your sleeve."
The Rainstone Old Freak marveled at Su Fan's capabilities, as he had been caught off guard repeatedly.
"Let's see if you can block this!"
The Rainstone Old Freak snorted coldly, retracted his hands, and performed a secret incantation. Dark clouds immediately gathered overhead, and sand and stones swirled on the ground, clearly indicating the casting of a formidable technique.
Su Fan was too far away to intervene.
Lingering Regret!
Su Fan unleashed Lingering Regret, which could stun an opponent for two seconds.
The anomalies around them vanished instantly.
The spellcasting process was directly interrupted.
Su Fan seized this opportunity and charged forward again.
While running, Su Fan unhesitatingly used Martial Essence Stones to enhance his existing skills.
If he didn't use them now, he'd take them to the grave.
Thunderous Might max
Used five Martial Essence Stones.
Gentle as Silk++
Used three Martial Essence Stones.
Su Fan was left with only two Martial Essence Stones.
By the time the Rainstone Old Freak recovered, Su Fan was already upon him.
Thunderous Might!
Su Fan unleashed a sword strike without hesitation.
Three bolts of lightning and fire sword energy, imbued with sharpness, slashed towards the Rainstone Old Freak.
The Rainstone Old Freak had never expected Su Fan to possess a spell that could disorient opponents. He was genuinely startled, and by the time he recovered, it was too late to defend.
All three sword energies struck the Rainstone Old Freak. The lightning and fire power erupted, kicking up a faint cloud of dust.
Su Fan was panting slightly, having exerted too much force.
However, Su Fan's expression changed the next moment, and he quickly turned to flee.
He was close to leveling up, and defeating a level fifty boss would surely grant him experience. But he hadn't received the system prompt, meaning the opponent wasn't dead!
"Kid! You're asking for death!"
Indeed, as Su Fan turned around, he saw the Rainstone Old Freak emerge from the dust, disheveled and furious, chasing after him.
Damn it! Millions of damage and he's still not dead. How much HP does he have!
Su Fan didn't say a word and stuffed a few pills into his mouth.
Although Su Fan's movement speed was enhanced by his equipment, he was still slower than the Rainstone Old Freak and would eventually be caught.
Su Fan had used almost all his usable skills and had no other moves to deal with the opponent.
No!
Su Fan still had skills!
The skill that came with his equipment: Fire Meteor!
It cost a minimum of one hundred mana to summon a meteor, and the more mana consumed, the larger the Fire Meteor!
The skill description had no damage values, but Su Fan's current mana was a staggering 11418. If he used it all, the resulting power would be immense!
"Damn it! I'll go all out!"
Seeing that escape was impossible, Su Fan stopped in his tracks and used the equipment's innate skill, Fire Meteor.
Su Fan raised his Purple Lightning Azure Frost Sword high, and a ball of fire shot from the blade towards the heavens.
The entire night sky was illuminated by the spectacle.
Su Fan used all his mana, just in case. What if he couldn't kill the opponent?
The Rainstone Old Freak looked up at the sky in horror.
"Master Spellcaster!"
The Rainstone Old Freak was somewhat shaken. Only a Master Spellcaster could invoke such phenomena, similar to the sand and stone storm he had been interrupted from casting earlier.
"A mere youngster, can he really overturn the heavens!"
The Rainstone Old Freak refused to believe that Su Fan, at his young age, could wield such a powerful spell. He must be bluffing!
The Rainstone Old Freak did not flee. Otherwise, he would be ridiculed endlessly if others found out.
At this moment, Su Fan's summoning skill was complete. A crimson meteorite broke through the clouds in the sky and plunged vertically downwards.
Initially the size of a millstone, the meteorite grew larger and larger in everyone's eyes. Soon, it was comparable to a small house.
This scene was visible from all parts of Tianlong City, and everyone was stunned.
"Holy crap! It's over! Divine punishment! Divine punishment!"
Those who believed in gods and spirits cried out that this was a heavenly punishment sent from above to punish the disloyal and unjust.
Xiao Yuan, in the imperial palace, frowned as he watched the meteorite descend from the sky. Ordinary people might not know, but he did.
Such a sudden, unprovoked heavenly punishment must be the work of a spellcaster; otherwise, there would have been no prior signs.
Xiao Yuan looked at the impact site of the meteorite, which was within Tianlong City. It was too late to stop it.
"Eunuch Li, make preparations to rescue the affected citizens!"
All Xiao Yuan could do now was to try and save the disaster victims after the catastrophe had struck, minimizing further losses.
Su Fan also realized the problem at this moment.
This falling meteor would affect the surrounding citizens, and... himself.
Meanwhile, the Rainstone Old Freak was utterly shocked. If he had held onto a sliver of hope earlier, it was now replaced by despair.
A house-sized meteor, the disaster it would cause was beyond human intervention!
The Rainstone Old Freak's first thought was to run, without hesitation. The meteor's descent speed was not fast, and it was still far away, giving him enough time to escape Tianlong City!
Without a word, the Rainstone Old Freak turned and fled.
Seeing the Rainstone Old Freak run, Su Fan felt a sense of relief, but an even greater crisis was approaching him.
