A God-tier Counter-damage Priest, I am the Master!

88: The Assassination of the First Archer—”Roar!”

The Netherworld Demonic Ape beat its chest and roared in fury, its voice like thunderous drums as its entire body was immediately shrouded in a boiling red blood qi.

Bai Tian’s expression instantly changed as he watched the Netherworld Demonic Ape’s 5.08 million HP bar surge, recovering 3 million health in an instant.

The Netherworld Demonic Ape’s vitality directly jumped to 8.08 million.

Holy crap!

Bai Tian let out a low curse in surprise.

One of the Netherworld Demonic Ape’s skills was called—[Beast Blood Boiling].

It seemed that this Beast Blood Boiling skill was for recovering vitality.

Recovering over 3 million health in a single moment—this was just too ridiculous!

However, the Netherworld Demonic Ape didn’t care if it was ridiculous. Its terrifying fangs jutted out as it suddenly leaped from the cracked ground, soaring over a hundred meters into the air.

Then, like a human cannonball, it plummeted down from the sky, crushing down toward Bai Tian, his pets, and his mount.

Clearly, the frenzied Netherworld Demonic Ape, despite knowing Bai Tian possessed Rebound, still wanted to kill him in one shot.

Therefore, it directly used its ultimate skill—[Mountain Splitting Earth Cracking].

—”(Ding-dong!)”

”(You are subjected to Earth-element Gravity Suppression, losing 2% health per second and temporarily unable to move.)”

Before the Netherworld Demonic Ape had even landed, the skill it activated had already generated powerful Earth-element energy, restricting Bai Tian.

Bai Tian was somewhat worried about being killed instantly, so he immediately activated [Nebula Spirit Refining Art] to remove the Gravity Suppression.

At the same time, he recalled the Ancestral Return Strange Horse and Little Dragon Zombie into his space, then cast a Cold Nether Shield on himself that could absorb 80,000 damage.

—”Boom!”

When the Netherworld Demonic Ape crashed down like a star hitting the earth, the resulting impact was like an overwhelming wave, with the power to split mountains and crack the earth.

Everything within four hundred meters was covered by this single skill. The ground was riddled with holes, cracks extended in all directions, and the rising dust reached a hundred meters high.

[Damage Absorbed: -98,000!]

[80x Rebound: -7,870,000!]

The Netherworld Demonic Ape’s ultimate move directly shattered Bai Tian’s shield.

Fortunately, Bai Tian’s total vitality was now over 100,000; after tanking the hit, he still had over 80,000 health left.

The BOSS Netherworld Demonic Ape, meanwhile, was spraying blood all over. Its skyscraper-sized body fell heavily backward.

Its health bar plummeted, leaving only a final 239,000 HP.

Upon seeing the Netherworld Demonic Ape’s health drop to rock bottom as it collapsed to the ground...

Suddenly, the assassins hidden nearby, each harboring their own hidden agendas, appeared like demons and ghosts, rushing out en masse.

However, the targets of these foreign server assassins were not the Netherworld Demonic Ape, but Bai Tian.

Ku Ya and the other three foreign server experts, who had been hiding in the distance, also rushed over like bolts of lightning, wanting to snatch the Netherworld Demonic Ape BOSS.

Even the Great Xia Region player team remaining on the field had seven or eight people rush out.

Their purpose in rushing out was not to help Bai Tian, but to snatch the kill-stealing final blow on the Netherworld Demonic Ape BOSS.

”Hmph, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time...”

A cold, sharp curve appeared at the corner of Bai Tian’s mouth. Just as he was about to activate his most ferocious S-rank Divine skill—[Tiger Roar Shakes Mountains and Rivers]—

Suddenly, an arrow came from out of nowhere at a speed comparable to light. Even Bai Tian couldn’t react in time as it struck him directly in the throat.

[Instant Kill Damage: -86,295!]

[80x Rebound: Resisted.]

—”(Ding-dong!)”

”(You have been subjected to a long-range sniper execution by foreign server player [Never Sets]. You received instant-kill damage, but your [Longevity Passive] successfully resisted the fatal damage.)”

Damn!

Never Sets?

The server’s number one Archer?

Bai Tian was suddenly shocked; he hadn’t seen Never Sets appear from beginning to end.

The opponent’s talent was to launch attacks from an ultra-long distance with a guaranteed hit effect.

He hadn’t expected that besides that, Never Sets also possessed a skill that could instantly kill enemies.

Furthermore, Bai Tian was very certain that the opponent had not been taken out by the 80x Rebound.

Because another series of light arrows streaked in from a distant position, striking Ku Ya and the other three foreign server experts.

Except for the flying Ku Ya and the expert with a mount, the other two powerhouses were directly killed by the long-range attacks.

”Oh no, it’s the server’s number one Archer, Never Sets.”

Ku Ya and the foreign server expert with the mount weren’t killed instantly, but their health immediately dropped by two-thirds.

The two were so frightened that they immediately activated their invincibility skills for self-protection.

It had to be said that these two reacted quickly enough; if they had been half a second later, they would have been taken out by the subsequent light arrows.

Never Sets had great ambitions; he wanted to kill powerhouses like Bai Tian first before monopolizing everything.

”Bastard, you dare to scheme against me? I’ll deal with you in a moment.”

At this point, Bai Tian didn’t care about anything else and decisively activated [Tiger Roar Shakes Mountains and Rivers].

At the same time, he summoned Little Dragon Zombie to activate the [Corpse Howl] skill.

With the two-pronged attack, all players within 500 meters were killed by Bai Tian, except for the few who had activated invincibility.

The Netherworld Demonic Ape BOSS also had its remaining health cleared; it let out an unwilling wail and could no longer stand up.

And at the same time.

Over two thousand meters away.

There was a powerful Western man with hawk-like eyes and a hooked nose. He was standing atop a dozen-meter-high skeletal remains of a beast, holding a precious bow that radiated an orange light, his entire body exuding a cold aura.

His gaze was cold and ruthless, like a venomous snake, making one shudder.

This person frowned slightly: ”Resisted certain death?”

He was indeed the server’s number one Archer, level 27, and the strongest expert of the Flying Eagle Region—[Never Sets].

He possessed an S-rank Soul Talent—[Bow God Talent].

He could launch attacks from an ultra-long distance; at his current level, his limit was sniping enemies 2,000 meters away.

But as his level increased, this distance would continue to grow.

In fact, Never Sets had arrived here long ago. He had been hiding in the distance, secretly watching Bai Tian’s location.

Just now, he was prepared to use his strongest special skill to kill Bai Tian first, and then snipe the other foreign server experts.

However, he had failed.

Never Sets knew that Brilliant possessed an S-rank Rebound. The moment he released the instant-kill special skill toward Bai Tian, he had activated an invincibility effect for himself.

Therefore, the 80x Rebound brought about by the instant-kill damage was perfectly evaded by him.

After deducing the reason why Bai Tian hadn’t been killed, Never Sets’ face showed no anger or annoyance. He remained very calm and immediately slid down from the beast skeleton.

Then he mounted a flame-covered Red Leopard mount and instantly distanced himself from the area.

After failing to kill Brilliant with that move, Never Sets already understood that he had no chance for the time being and decisively gave up.

To be able to become the server’s number one Archer and a figure ranked in the top three for you tian points, Never Sets was at a monstrous level in terms of both temperament and will.

He was also destined to become an extremely formidable opponent for Bai Tian.

—

As for Bai Tian, he temporarily couldn’t worry about whether Never Sets, hiding in the distance, would dare to attack him again.

The moment he finished off the Netherworld Demonic Ape, the surging tide of experience points had already allowed him to instantly level up to 28.

Furthermore, Bai Tian’s eyes were as cold as water as he locked onto Ku Ya, who was flying in mid-air.

Timing it for the exact moment Ku Ya’s invincibility ended, Bai Tian activated the skill—[Dragon Capturing Hand]...
