Caught between fire and storm, Lin Jichen knew he couldn't escape, so he chose to defend.
Flames and storms ravaged his body.
The Earth-level Spirit Skill "Thunder Armor," which he had mastered, began to show its formidable power.
At its peak, Thunder Armor could block 50% of the damage from anything below the Elemental Infant Realm and reflect 20% of it.
As Lin Jichen took damage, the Chibi Bird also suffered from the reflected damage.
When the skill ended, Lin Jichen's Thunder Armor went into cooldown.
Of course, Lin Jichen still lost the most health.
Man and bird entered a fierce aerial tug-of-war.
They exchanged blows, fighting intensely.
The power of this battle was unbelievable.
Everyone saw the strength of the Chibi Bird and was even more shocked by Lin Jichen's prowess.
How could someone at the mid-stage of Crystal Formation fight evenly with a Golden Elixir stage exotic beast?
"Wanling sister, why is there such a big gap between our Sword Cultivator class and Master Lin?"
Su Wanling could only give a bitter smile in response, "If you ask me, who should I ask? This guy has been a freak for a long time."
"Wanling sister, you're so close to him. Can't you ask him to teach us how to play Sword Cultivator and improve our strength?"
"I'd love to, but the problem is whether he's willing to teach."
"Of course, he will. Worst case, Wanling sister, you can use your charm to seduce him."
"If that doesn't work, use your beauty to tempt him. Sacrifice a little for the greater good."
Su Wanling's forehead broke out in black lines, and she gave each of them a flick on the forehead.
The battle had already lasted almost ten minutes.
Man and bird fought fiercely, leaving destruction in their wake.
Su Wanling remembered that Lin Jichen had only taken a few minutes to deal with Xing Sen, the top Axe Cultivator of Tale of Immortal, yesterday.
But now, fighting the Chibi Bird was so difficult.
The gap between exotic beasts and cultivators was evident.
She wanted to help, but realized it was futile.
If Lin Jichen couldn't touch the Chibi Bird, there was no way they could.
This level of battle was beyond what ordinary players could intervene in.
Ten minutes passed, and the Chibi Bird's health was down to less than thirty thousand.
Lin Jichen was in worse shape, with less than twenty thousand health and less than ten thousand mana.
But Lin Jichen wasn't panicking because he still had an Ultimate Technique left.
Of course, the Chibi Bird also had hidden cards.
Lin Jichen wanted to use his Ultimate Technique, but it required a long charge time, and the Chibi Bird would surely notice.
With the Chibi Bird's speed, if it ran after noticing, his Ultimate Technique might hit nothing but air.
Once his mana was exhausted, he would be doomed.
So Lin Jichen kept dragging the fight, looking for an opportunity to use Frost Moon Slash to freeze the bird.
He also tried to wear down the Chibi Bird's patience, looking for the perfect moment.
During this time, Lin Jichen continuously hurled insults at the Chibi Bird to provoke it.
But this stubborn bird had a great patience; it didn't fall for his taunts at all. It must have been a turtle in its past life.
Finally, perseverance paid off.
The Chibi Bird couldn't hold back anymore. Its golden pupils suddenly turned purple, and a beam of light shot from its eyes!
At the same time, it hovered motionless, as if the skill had a delay effect, similar to a cultivator's skill that required charging.
The beam shot towards Lin Jichen without warning!
Lin Jichen seemed to have anticipated this, showing a knowing smile. Finally, a flaw!
He knew this skill from his past life.
In fact, many exotic beast skills had been studied and familiarized by players in later generations.
This move was the Chibi Bird's signature, causing a paralyzing stun.
Anyone hit by this would be stunned for a terrifying five seconds.
Five seconds, and with Lin Jichen's current health, he would be dead for sure.
So Lin Jichen had been extremely cautious and focused.
Just as the beam was about to hit him, Lin Jichen suddenly flashed forward.
The hidden Mist Piercer Worm played a crucial role, allowing him to dodge the paralyzing eye beam!
At the same time, seeing the Chibi Bird still in its charging state, Lin Jichen seized the opportunity and performed a sword technique!
Sword Qi surged, and the Dark Night Sword emitted an unprecedented sword light!
Lin Jichen walked on air, his robes billowing in the wind.
The next moment, his Ultimate Technique was ready!
The Chibi Bird snapped out of its stunned state, sensing the danger from Lin Jichen's rising aura, and tried to flee.
Lin Jichen suddenly shouted, putting all his strength into a single sword strike!
In an instant, a terrifying Sword Qi shot out, illuminating the sky, seemingly capable of piercing the heavens and earth!
The unmatched sword intent tore through the sky, splitting mountains and seas!
Nothing could describe this sword!
Distant players were stunned, and beasts within dozens of miles fled in terror.
The Chibi Bird was horrified, flapping its wings desperately to escape.
However, Lin Jichen's sword had already sealed all its escape routes.
The Sword Qi pierced through the Chibi Bird, and the remaining Sword Qi struck a towering mountain behind it.
The mountain, towering into the clouds, was suddenly cut diagonally, split in half.
The mountain top and body separated, boulders rolling down, causing the earth to shake.
The Chibi Bird, struck by the blow, fell from the sky with a tragic cry!
[Curse: Unable to recover health, lasts 30 seconds!]
[Tendon Sever: Each skill use causes a one-second stun, lasts 30 seconds!]
The power of this sword was terrifying!
This Ultimate Technique required ten thousand mana to cast.
But Lin Jichen, being the Thunder Vein Inheritor, had a 20% reduction in mana consumption for all skills, just enough to use this trump card.
But this wasn't enough to kill the Chibi Bird.
The Chibi Bird still had a few thousand health left.
[Exotic Beast: Chibi Bird]
[Strength: Late Golden Elixir]
[Skills: Storm Sweep, Shadow Claw, Hurricane Blaze, Sky Dance, Feather Wind Spirit Art]
With only a little over five thousand health left, Lin Jichen seemed to have no way to deal with it, as his mana was exhausted.
However, Lin Jichen didn't give up. The bracelet on his hand suddenly glowed, and a stream of spirit energy flowed into his body.
[Dark Star Bracelet]: Spirit Pool, +3000 mana!
With some mana restored, Lin Jichen launched his final attack on the Chibi Bird!
