Chapter 326: Holy Purification, Three Monsters Converged

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After summoning the White Tiger Shaman, Violet Orchid familiarized herself with the White Tiger Shaman’s battle skills and movement speed. In just a short amount of time, she formulated an even more detailed battle plan.

With the combination of Light-type and Priest’s Support-type abilities, the White Tiger Shaman was indeed more suitable than the Amethyst Orc in places like the Graveyard of the Gods. Not only did it have extraordinary battle powers, but it also had an impressively powerful self-healing ability which could greatly increase their ability to stay in battle for a longer period of time and speed up self-healing abilities.

Most importantly, the holy priest’s power was able to attract the attention of a large number of monsters, especially the Undead monsters that had much distaste and contempt for the Light-type beings.

The White Tiger Shaman only had to step forward and all the Undead monsters would not even pay attention to anyone else standing behind it, be it one or a million people.

To the Undead monsters, they only had one thought in mind: To destroy the White Tiger Shaman!

Rumble—

A group of Skeletal Dragons that were being lured away from the warp portal by several Bowmasters and Bandits were instantly attracted by the majestic holy power that appeared within their field of vision. After releasing deafening and unpleasant roars, they turned in unison towards the White Tiger Shaman, abandoning the Adventurers who were their initial opponents. They bolted towards the White Tiger Shaman with such overwhelming force and intent, an intention very much deadly as they desired to slaughter and maim it.

The Bowmasters and Bandits grabbed the chance to speedily escape from the sides of the battleground and put a distance between them and the Skeletal Dragon’s battleground, successfully returning to their team...

Violet Orchid who was standing in front of the party was concentrating fully on commanding the White Tiger Shaman in order to lure the first batch of Skeletal Dragons far away from the warp portal. Once that was done, what was left was the Holy Purification skill!

A majestic holy power, shining brightly as it descended from the skies like a light screen falling onto the dozens of Skeletal Dragons that were in the frontlines...

Ear-splitting roars and howls of pain broke through the area as the holy power blasted and shone forth on their skeletons. The dozens of Skeletal Dragons were thrown up into the air as if they were electrified by an invisible force. What followed were puffs of shocking green smoke that came from the bodies of the Skeletal Dragons, it was as if they were burned and scalded by extremely high temperature.

Witnessing the White Tiger Shaman single-handedly bring down dozens of Skeletal Dragons just like that, Qin Ruo, Black Rock, and seven other Elementalists who were following right behind them, with dual defense activated, were all in a state of utter awe and wonder.

Holy Purification was truly powerful when it came to dealing with Undead monsters, with every second the damage hit was over a thousand, a Level 55 Skeletal Dragon would be killed off in just under six seconds under the hands of a White Tiger Shaman. Even their back up party that was stationed in case anything went wrong, did not have any chance to join in the battle.

With the Holy Purification damage, it was not as simple as the Skeletal Dragon losing only their HP...

Along with losing over a thousand of their HP with every subsequent second, the Skeletal Dragons’ speed and energy were also greatly affected. After being hit by the Holy Purification skill, the Skeletal Dragons’ skeletons were burning as if being corroded by acid, their skeleton wings were slowed down greatly and their energy became unusually waned. It was as if they were bounded towards the White Tiger Shaman but at the same time enduring such an immense level of pain.

Their shortcoming was that they were mid-ranged attack monsters, unlike that of the Skelewing Dragon’s long-ranged attack power...

Not giving them any chance to get closer to the group, Qin Ruo and a few others used AoE magic and closed in on the Skeletal Dragons, battle cries filled the air as they rapidly advanced onto the monsters while taking advantage of the situation. With their nimble efforts, the Skeletal Dragons’ HP plummeted even further in a short period of time!

The Skeletal Dragons let out howls of anguish for the final time as their HP hit zero, dozens of them dropped onto the ground with heavy thuds one after another like broken-winged birds. The Holy Purification effects did not dissipate, as the Skeletal Dragons were falling, they were turned into ashes and returned to the ground from where they came from.

After the battle, Violet Orchid and her team let out genuine smiles as they could finally relax.

As luck would have it, the battle turned out to be much better than they imagined!

The Light-type White Tiger Shaman was undoubtedly able to deal immense damage on the Undead monsters, when the time came for the battle with the Skelewing Dragon it should be able to produce satisfactory outcomes.

With that thought in mind, the group responsible for luring the monsters set out once again...

***

Slowly but sure, the Skeletal Dragons around the warp portal have all been lured and mercilessly slaughtered by the White Tiger Shaman. The only one that remained was the Skelewing Dragon that had dark flames within its being and a bright red inferno right in the middle of its skull. It stood alone, beating its skeleton wings, as it closely observed the White Tiger Shaman approaching the area under its guardianship from afar.

As the White Tiger Shaman, with the power to overpower the Skelewing Dragon, stepped into the Skelewing Dragon’s ring of guardianship, a great surge of vigilance and battle willpower flared up within the latter. With just one brief movement, dark flames swiftly spread out and covered its skeletal frame...

This sight was one to behold as Qin Ruo and the others felt a sudden numbness coursing through their bodies, making their hairs stand on end.

This was the type of Boss that gave players the most problems. With its whole body covered in flames, they were not able to fight it head-on. The only way was to stand from afar and deal long-ranged damages.

If they were to use long-ranged attacks, the White Tiger Shaman was at a total disadvantage...

The difference between 100,000 HP and 200,000 HP was clearly huge; attack-wise the difference was not any better—the Light-type may overpower the Undead-type but when an Undead monster possesses that level of ridiculous power, it would pose as a threat even to Light-type monsters. The Skelewing Dragon’s power was far above that of the White Tiger Shaman’s power...

However, using the combination of Support-type White Tiger Shaman and the Amethyst Orc that uses brute force, there was still a chance of producing some kind of threat towards the Skelewing Dragon!

The only thing they needed to do was to put the plan into action.

“GO!”

Qin Ruo shouted at the top of his lungs, the Amethyst Orc that was following the party from behind charged forward with bright eyes and thundering feet... The purple battle spirit appeared once more on his giant silhouette.

Taking the opportunity, Qin Ruo swiftly grabbed a Darkfrost Potion from his backpack and downed it in one gulp without any hesitation—this was the second time Qin Ruo was using a Darkfrost Potion ever since he entered the Graveyard of the Gods!

The first time he used it, it was because he was in a tight spot where a group of Deadwood Elves and a Tier 5 Elite Boss Deadwood Commander had him surrounded. With his life on the line, he was forced to use a Darkfrost Potion to increase his frost effect and magical range.

This time...

The situation was no less perilous than the first time.

Even though he had the Amethyst Orc and White Tiger Shaman’s aid, along with Black Rock, Snowleaf and seven other elite Elementalists by his side, taking down a Skelewing Dragon was a ridiculously dangerous feat. It was a long and time-consuming battle that did not have room for any careless mistakes! They had to perform their very best!

***

The Skelewing Dragon was a Tier 5 Boss after all—its pride and intelligence that came from its dragon ancestry were very much manifested in it. Even though it was highly attracted to the Light-type enemy, it was still very well aware that there were ten people and one other monster within the battlefield.

The presence of the ten adventurers were not enough to make him be on alert, but the two powerful Tier 5 Minibosses were enough to make him ring alarm bells in its head...

Beating its wings ferociously, the Skelewing Dragon dove forward.

*Thundering roars reverberated through the air*

Huge dark dragon flames spread out in a fan-shaped form burst through the air falling onto the ground, blazing toward the White Tiger Shaman that entered its battleground range.

Almost at the same time, the Holy Purification skill made its entrance!

For their first contact with each other, Violet Orchid chose to fight power with power—making the White Tiger Shaman endure a hit from the oncoming dark dragon flames so that she could assess how much damage the Skelewing Dragon could deal on the White Tiger Shaman; at the same time, she wanted to see if the White Tiger Shaman’s Light-type magic was able to cause any additional purification damage when it came to dealing with Undead Bosses...

The outcome was unexpectedly decent.

The Holy Purification attack was able to deal more than 600 damage per second even on the Skelewing Dragon which had a Magic Defense of 220... displaying the additional damage of the Light-type ability.

On the other hand, the White Tiger Shaman had to receive damage from the Skelewing Dragon’s attack and it was not a pretty sight. With just one burst of the dragon flame, the White Tiger Shaman’s HP dropped by more than 800.

This was not a good situation for the White Tiger Shaman...

Under Violet Orchid’s cautious command, the White Tiger Shaman immediately went on defense mode as it draped a holy Light Barrier on itself. In the next second that followed, a sublime holy power projected from the Shaman’s magic staff, not taking any specific form or shape, the light penetrated sharply, sliced through the air and into the Skelewing Dragon’s skeletal torso!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Skelewing Dragon ultimately failed to defy the odds of being an Undead monster, black smoke started fuming from its wound. It let out ear-splitting roars as it writhed in pain and agony up in the sky!

“Attack!”

Taking advantage of the situation, Qin Ruo and ten other long-ranged firepower attackers rushed towards within thirty meters of the Skelewing Dragon, all of them cast the strongest magic attack that they had accumulated and condensed for so long...

Qin Ruo did not cast a Lycan Barrage, instead he used a Compressed Frost Bullet with increased frost effect from the Darkfrost Potion. The increase in the frost effect was of manifold and the Compressed Frost Bullet was at a level that was too scary to be true!

Not only that...

Qin Ruo actually managed to cast the Compressed Frost Bullet twice for the first time ever while controlling Water Element!

Two frosty and chilling Frost Bullets whizzed through the midst of the ongoing battle, stealing all the attention and emerging as the star of the show. Like a silenced killer, the bullets dealt more than 400 and 500 respectively.

What followed closely were two deafening explosions where double damages of more than 600 each were inflicted on the Skelewing Dragon, greatly diminishing its HP as well as its attack power.

The Skelewing Dragon’s Movement Speed was reduced by 30% due to Laceration! The accumulated total damage dealt on the Boss reached an impressive number of more than 2500... Without a doubt, he was the strongest long-ranged firepower attacker amongst all the other ten. As for three of the Elementalists who only dealt two digit number damages on the Boss, they felt such indescribable shame that they wanted to vanish into thin air.

The Skelewing Dragon would have never imagined that these low-level adventurers would have posed any sort of threat to it. After having experienced so much loss, it went on full alert mode and formed a barrier outside its body.

The Skelewing Dragon was flying twenty meters high in the air when the Amethyst Orc jumped with full force into the air, pulling the gap between the two to a mere ten-meter difference. With all its might, the Amethyst Orc aimed three heavily condensed slashes at the Skelewing Dragon!

At the same time, a brown silhouette sprung forth with lightning speed from the Amethyst Orc’s shoulder!

Woosh!

Six clear scratches that appeared as a result effortlessly tore through the Skelewing Dragon’s newly formed Shadow Barrier...

Without a second to spare, an Amethyst Slash was directed at the Skelewing Dragon in the middle of the sky!
