I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second

Chapter 965: Chapter 965: Performance Far Beyond Expectations

The distance between himself and that giant sword was dozens of miles, a distance that could be considered quite safe. Lin Yi had ample reaction time to deal with Sun Shu’s attack.

Moreover, equipped with the divine skill ”Light and Shadow Interweaving,” he could nearly achieve zero-frame Instant Teleportation, with a considerable teleportation distance. Given Lin Yi’s already incredibly fast reflexes, dodging attacks from such a far distance shouldn’t pose any problems.

Lin Yi was absolutely confident in this.

He could have continued to launch his pre-prepared attack on Sun Shu, but unfortunately, it seemed like there was a conflict between his body and mind.

His brain believed that the giant sword summoned by Sun Shu could not pose any threat to Lin Yi and wanted to command his body to attack, yet his body instinctively gathered divine power around itself for defense against Sun Shu’s attack.

At some unknown moment, Xiyue’s curvaceous body was already clad in form-fitting golden-red battle armor.

The majestic and imposing spear blades enveloped in visible divine power were ready to strike.

The cold, glittering blades formed a massive scarlet net that rapidly enveloped Sun Shu’s position.

The scarlet net emitted a destructive force, seemingly able to disintegrate anything it touched.

Even Ao Shu was not idle.

She unreservedly manipulated the Taichu and divine power within her, twisting and shattering the space surrounding Sun Shu bit by bit.

To prevent any chance of escape for Sun Shu, Ao Shu sealed the entire space around him.

The trio’s coordinated attack seemed flawless, and if these moves were used against an opponent of similar strength, they could indeed completely cut off the opponent’s escape route.

However, this time, they faced an opponent whose divine power level far exceeded their own.

”Kid, your awareness is quite good.”

”If you hadn’t used divine power for defense, this strike would have been enough to take your life.”

Sun Shu’s lips curled into a confident smile, and the giant sword, miles away, suddenly vanished.

When Lin Yi’s gaze refocused, countless Flying Swords were swirling around him and Lin Yi, continuously slashing at Lin Yi.

”This strike should be enough to decide the outcome, right?”

With that thought, tens of thousands of Flying Swords, imbued with divine power and Taichu, began rapidly slashing around Lin Yi and himself.

At first, it seemed as if Xiyue and Ao Shu had the upper hand, but their offensive was blocked, with an endless stream of Flying Swords flying toward them, easily dispelling even the power of twisted space.

Lin Yi fared even worse.

Before he could take any action, tens of thousands of Flying Swords frantically slashed at him.

”With your Defense, it’s nearly impossible to be completely defeated by this move, so let me add another strike.”

Sun Shu extended his right index and middle fingers, lightly tapping the space in front of him.

Ripples, like those on a lake, spread out in front of him.

Immediately thereafter, the sharp Sword Qi burst forth like a laser cannon, shooting straight toward Lin Yi.

The pure Sword Intent even disrupted Sun Shu’s own techniques.

Despite Xiyue and Ao Shu’s strenuous defensive efforts, the tens of thousands of Flying Swords rapidly disintegrated, and the two women, while unable to keep up with the overwhelming scenario, kept a sidelong eye on Lin Yi, hastening their efforts to solve their own predicament to alleviate Lin Yi’s pressure.

However, the impact of the sharp Sword Qi ended in an instant.

The Flying Swords attacking Lin Yi suddenly ceased their assault.

Even the Flying Swords attacking Xiyue and Ao Shu dissipated.

All returned to peace, with fragmented stones scattered everywhere from the position Lin Yi had just occupied, and Lin Yi buried among them.

The two women were about to step forward when Sun Shu spoke up.

”Rest assured, it’s just a spar, I won’t go all out. I just want you to understand that the Four Great Corpse Kings are not simple, and with my strength, in front of the Four Great Corpse Kings, I’m but.....”

In terms of reputation, Sun Shu was beyond reproach.

Even though Lin Yi and the others went all out against him, Sun Shu didn’t take offense.

Moreover, he didn’t use his full power when he attacked.

Though Sun Shu was one of the All Celestial Divine Beings, he had never felt superior because of his Upper-Rank God status; his admiration for Lin Yi and the others was genuine, not wishing to see them perish needlessly. As for his strength, Sun Shu considered it just right.

Not wanting to stress the matter, the strongest among the three, Lin Yi, lay quietly for a moment to realize the gap between their powers.

Before he could finish speaking, the originally calm pile of stones began to stir.

Each stone, influenced by some unknown force, trembled a couple of times.

Then, they all started to float.

Lin Yi, who had been buried beneath the stone pile, seemed to emit a faint glow.

Sun Shu squinted, looking at the young man before him, and couldn’t help but be slightly taken aback.

The faint radiance emanating from Lin Yi’s body was puzzling to even him.

”Mr. Sun, I can still continue fighting. Shall we go on?”

The skills learned from Zacks were no joke.

As the first general under the Immortal King, such strength was not something Sun Shu could easily challenge, so his confusion was understandable.

The ”Unbreakable” effect had only been triggered for about two seconds, so Lin Yi hadn’t experienced much divine power depletion.

At this moment, he was in excellent condition, his body remarkably clean, with not even the edge of his clothes showing any signs of damage.

How could this not shock Sun Shu?

The power with which Sun Shu made his move was tailored to Lin Yi’s strength.

He indeed hadn’t gone all out, but for Lin Yi’s level of divine power, this strike should have at least rendered him unconscious.

Sun Shu couldn’t comprehend how Lin Yi was standing unharmed before him.

”Are all young people in the Dark Rising Organization at your level?”

Sun Shu felt as if he’d been taught a lesson.

A young twenty-year-old, what resources must have been poured into cultivating such outstanding talent.

If everyone in the Dark Rising Organization was like this, then Sun Shu needed to reconsider his future.

Such extreme talent meant either the All Celestial Divine Beings had to show their stance, eliminating all young talents capable of bearing the future of Dark Rising in a short time, nipping them in the bud.

Or they should wait a hundred years to be completely overpowered.

For a moment, Sun Shu felt bewildered.

He started to wrestle with what to do—should he uphold his promises? If Lin Yi alone was this powerful, should he personally eliminate this potential threat to the All Celestial Divine Beings?

”What’s wrong, senior? Why are you suddenly uncertain?”

With that question, Sun Shu’s thoughts were instantly disrupted.

As a member of the All Celestial Divine Beings, clearing potential threats was his responsibility, but he didn’t want to go back on his word.

In a moment of distraction, Lin Yi re-appeared in front of him, mercilessly kicking him in the chest.
