I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second

Chapter 1165: Chapter 1165: World War II Ends, Dark Rising Defeated

Jiang Chen’s approach was, in itself, completely sound. Using the Profound Ice on his body to protect the two of them, at least any divine expert weaker than the Eastern War God would have no way to injure them via a sneak attack.

But when he shifted the Profound Ice barrier from his own body, something happened that left him dumbstruck.

The Profound Ice did indeed fall away from his body according to his intent, but during the transfer, it unexpectedly flew off into the distance, out of his control.

Just as Jiang Chen was staring in confusion, wondering what his own Profound Ice was trying to do, that flying Profound Ice completely broke free of his control and shot off in Drought Demon’s direction.

This is!

Jiang Chen stared wide-eyed in disbelief as, during its flight, that Extreme Ice transformed into one arrow after another, stabbing toward the spot where Drought Demon was.

”Drought Demon, run!”

The Four Corpse Kings had always had a good relationship. Back when they were sealed, they each carved out their own territory. Even though their attributes differed, some even being opposing attributes, Drought Demon had long grown accustomed to Jiang Chen’s aura.

So when the sword blades formed from Extreme Ice on Jiang Chen’s body came slashing at her, Drought Demon didn’t make any defensive move at all. She didn’t even take the attacks formed from Jiang Chen’s Extreme Ice seriously.

”What do you mean by this!”

Hearing Jiang Chen’s shout, Drought Demon subconsciously turned her head, temporarily interrupting her own intent to continue attacking.

One glance back, and she was instantly dumbfounded.

Before she could even figure out what was happening, those dozens of swords formed from ultimate Profound Ice had already stabbed into her body.

At the instant the flames burning on her withered body collided with the Extreme Ice, a thick plume of steam erupted, accompanied by Drought Demon’s scream of agony.

Even among identical elements, there are still differences.

When elements of the same level clash, their mutual restraint is extremely evident. The flames on Drought Demon’s body were of the same strength as the flames on the other three Corpse Kings; the damage caused when they collided was easy enough to imagine.

That’s right, this was once again the work of the Fu Xi Talisman.

A weapon that rules over reality is no joke.

As the Lifebound Divine Artifact of an Ancient Great God, the Fu Xi Talisman’s attack methods are completely opposite to those of the Divine River Song.

The Divine River Song, this External Divine Artifact, is already powerful enough. Its form is ever-changing; it can transform into all kinds of weapons to effectively strike enemies, and when its master suffers a sneak attack, it can turn into a shield to block damage on their behalf.

The Fu Xi Talisman doesn’t have the ability to change its form, but it can launch unexpected attacks, transferring the enemy’s attack back onto the enemy themselves, or directly nullifying it, leaving them with no defense against it.

In terms of lethality, the Fu Xi Talisman definitely has the edge.

Seeing the Immortal King’s avatar come to support him, Lin Yi let out a breath of relief.

This big shot was finally willing to make a move.

Otherwise, if he had to face the attacks of two second-stage Corpse Kings at once, he’d practically be peeling off a layer of skin.

”Lord Immortal King, you came just in time. I really didn’t know how I was supposed to handle this.”

The Immortal King could naturally hear the flattery in those words.

Claiming he ”didn’t know how to handle it” was definitely nonsense.

With the Great Saint and Wo Zhiqi inside Lin Yi’s body, either one of them taking over could help fend off the Four Corpse Kings’ attacks.

However, having them intervene too often was indeed somewhat detrimental to the two great Martial Souls inside him.

”Dark Rising’s future is already sealed. After this battle, they’ll be headed straight for total destruction. As the saying goes, you don’t need to chase a desperate foe to the bitter end; there’s no need to wipe them out completely.”

The Immortal King’s avatar spoke while fixing his gaze on the struggling Drought Demon, then said somewhat helplessly:

Eliminating the Four Corpse Kings is indeed important, but right now there’s no need to rush that. Once my true body gets the Fu Xi Talisman, we can slowly deal with these four troubles.

Lin Yi did not object to this.

He was well aware that as the stages progressed, the Four Corpse Kings’ strength would only grow more formidable.

It wasn’t that the Immortal King was unwilling to give his all; it was simply that with only an avatar, the Immortal King truly couldn’t accomplish the feat of killing the Four Corpse Kings.

The best option for now was indeed to withdraw first.

As he spoke, the Immortal King activated his Power of the Primordial, lifting Lin Yi’s left hand, then writing some inscriptions Lin Yi couldn’t understand on his left palm.

”From here on, your evacuation together with the Eastern War God and the others will be the final objective of this operation. What I’m engraving for you is temporary usage rights to the Fu Xi Talisman. Don’t worry—with this imprint, the Fu Xi Talisman won’t stab you in the back again. Once my avatar dissipates, you’ll be on your own. With the Fu Xi Talisman’s help, your retreat will be relatively easier.”

”The other four War Gods are on their way. If the opportunity arises, you can even hit back once. From this moment, the evacuation mission begins.”

The Immortal King’s mission briefing was, of course, also sent to the Eastern War God’s side.

The Eastern War God had no objections to this arrangement.

He knew very clearly that they were absolutely no match for the Four Corpse Kings in their current state. After making a simple tactical deployment, he immediately ordered his subordinates to hurry up and pull out.

”Damn it, these guys are so fast!”

Hou Qing and Ying Gou rushed over, both of them swinging heavy punches at the Immortal King’s avatar.

Unfortunately, the Fu Xi Talisman activated in time, causing the Immortal King’s avatar’s body to briefly turn incorporeal, successfully avoiding this strike.

But to avoid this attack, the Immortal King’s avatar had no choice but to take this course of action.

He clenched both hands tightly, and a phantom fist exploded instantly in the hands of the Immortal King’s avatar.

Boom, boom!

The Immortal King’s fists came down, striking the off-balance Hou Qing and Ying Gou dead on.

The powerful force of his punches shattered and sent flying the Protective Profound Ice covering the two Corpse Kings.

He even pounded the two Corpse Kings hard into the ground.

Seizing this moment, Lin Yi hastily activated his [Light and Shadow Interweaving] skill, instantly opening up a distance of dozens of kilometers from the battlefield and directly leaving the battlefield’s planet altogether.

Lin Yi wasn’t worried about which direction he should retreat in.

While the Four Corpse Kings hadn’t yet caught up and the Fu Xi Talisman hadn’t returned to his hand, Lin Yi had other matters to attend to.

His ”defection” was only a temporary forbearance; he had never intended to help tyrants do evil.

As for the Enhancement Skill, the Immortal King would definitely question him about that in the future.

He might as well use this opportunity to completely move all the resources on Blue Star.

The news that he had joined the All Gods Camp had likely already spread throughout the All Gods’ information system. Once various checkpoints detected his identity, any gods from the various realms who saw him would absolutely not try to stop him.

At this moment, without a doubt, was the best time for Lin Yi to transfer materials.

He opened his personal storage space, took out his [Plane Voucher], and directly activated its effect, letting the Plane Voucher teleport him again to the Desire Realm Celestial Human Dao.

Alternating between the two movement skills [Thunderbolt Flash] and [Swift Wind Flash], with the Multi-Casting effect of [Chaos at the Beginning], every burst Lin Yi made covered an absurdly long distance.

He was like an already-launched intercontinental missile, advancing at extreme speed every second. If one wasn’t a top-tier expert in Divine Power Level, they wouldn’t even be able to sense that someone was dashing at high speed toward the junction between the Formless Realm and the Desire Realm.
