My Misfortune Crushed Instances

Boom——

The impact and physical damage of Thunder Shocking Earth are much stronger than that of Yin Thunder Flash.

Moreover, Li Rui deliberately calculated his state, allowing the battle scars to reach an 80% boost state. If he could hit the face, it would be a lethal blow, and it was the first time he showed the intent to kill when facing this Witch King.

Huoli was controlled by the increased poison state and was about to be unable to withstand this move.

Not only him, but Cheng Mingyue also quickly launched a control skill, with a pair of huge transparent hands slamming from both sides, more than enough to control Huoli in her palms.

This skill is not physical control. When the hands strike, the surrounding space is also locked. Unless one uses a superior escape technique or forcibly breaks through with overwhelming power, there’s no chance of escaping.

The culprit responsible for turning Witch City into Ghost City was about to be killed by the joint deadly moves of the two, and he had no choice but to pull out his trump card in a desperate gamble.

At the last moment, the other two faces on Huoli’s shoulders all opened their eyes, one side glimmering with golden light, and the other with eyes like those of a normal creature.

"Ah——"

A tsunami-like roar erupted simultaneously from all three mouths, and the dark cyan skin turned black as if it had transformed into a man-eating demon.

Boom!!

Thunder Shocking Earth smashed down at the last moment, and Cheng Mingyue’s hand restraint technique also took effect.

A violent explosion echoed in the underground palace, and no one could see what happened inside.

"Did we succeed?"

Xu Xiliang’s bowstring was taut, ready to finish the job at any time.

After landing a hit, Li Rui jumped back. He knew it wasn’t over yet because a threat, not much weaker than before, was still brewing in the swirling dust.

"Roar!!!"

Together with the skyward howl, Huoli’s distorted body erupted. He suddenly began to swell, growing from at most two or three zhang high to five or six zhang, and it didn’t stop until his head and shoulders reached the ceiling.

He let out a bizarre scream, plunged both hands into the top of the underground palace, and yanked forcefully.

Crack, crack, crack, crack.

The underground grand hall, excavated and fixed with stone pillars, was torn apart by sheer force and began to collapse.

Li Rui was somewhat stunned by this guy’s strength, realizing that even with all buffs to face him directly, he might not prevail.

But now, he had to break through the falling ceiling of the underground palace to avoid being buried under rocks and dirt.

He switched his Soul Bone Pendant to the bear form, increasing his physique by 5%, and charged upwards against the collapsing stones and soil.

Huoli had only used strength to pull down the top of the underground palace without employing any special spells, posing no particular threat to Li Rui.

However, as he just cleared the obstacles and reached the surface, he felt a gust of wind coming at him. Huoli, now over ten meters tall, descended like a meteor, delivering a knee strike straight down.

Boom!!!

For the first time, Li Rui took damage in a frontal battle with a boss. Fortunately, he had activated his rock shield in advance, so the injuries were not severe. At the same time, he continued to replenish his Spiritual Power and under the support of his unshakable stance, he started a defensive counterattack.

Huoli obviously hadn’t expected his mighty strike to fail in crushing this tiny guy, only for the opponent to seize the opportunity and fight back.

But it was no use.

All six of his eyes shot out beams of light, and a barrier of overwhelming Evil Qi surged from his body, finally forcing Li Rui back while shattering Cheng Mingyue and Xu Xiliang’s distant attacks.

"Roar roar roar..."

The roars soared into the sky, echoing above the entire Ghost City.

"This is going to be difficult."

Xu Xiliang said, "It seems that without some sacrifice, we can’t deal with this guy."

Just relying on equipment and skills doesn’t appear to be enough to handle this creature, but both he and the other two certainly had their bottom-line items.

Cheng Mingyue said, "Wait a moment, I have a trump card to test out, and if it doesn’t work, we’ll see then."

Could there be unused skills? Xu Xiliang was startled.

Li Rui returned to the two’s side: "Coincidentally, I have one too."

Cheng Mingyue said, "Alright, I will trap him in an array. He will take 50% more damage, and the rest is up to you."

Seeing they were discussing their strategies, Xu Xiliang no longer stopped them.

Give it a try, and if it doesn’t work, he still had several epic items to fall back on.

As they spoke, Li Rui had once again used the Great Fire Bell Spell to stall Huoli, while Cheng Mingyue, after casting several Spiritual Power boosting skills on herself, returned to her control stance to unleash her ace move.

Under her control, a portion of the earth and rocks rose into the air, merging together, grinding into dust, and then forming stone pillars in six directions, each over ten meters high and as thick as two people embracing.

A faint halo connected them, enveloping Huoli at the center.

This was a legendary skill called Six-Harmony Imprisonment, capable of creating a grand array to bind enemies within and increase the damage they receive. It was an opportunity she had gained in a Secret Realm before entering the battlefield.

Meanwhile, Li Rui used Yin Thunder Flash nearby to buy time, preventing the skill that needed some time to form the formation from being interrupted.

Having suffered once from Yin Thunder Flash, Huoli was now more cautious, countering while using his swirling Evil Qi to neutralize the poisonous Divine Thunder.

Sizzle.

The poison couldn’t penetrate the body nor impart paralysis, but it didn’t matter anymore, for the binding effect of Six-Harmony Imprisonment had begun to manifest. The Witch King Huoli, strengthened by the Jade Orb, seemed to suddenly bear a thousand-ton weight, and dense inscriptions lit up on the six stone pillars.

"Quick!"

Cheng Mingyue called out loudly.

Clearly, despite having such a legendary-level skill, her pressure was still considerable, after all, Huoli was strengthened by an item from the Upper Realm, making him difficult to restrain.

Li Rui did not respond because he was in the process of stacking buffs. After several hours, the cooldown of the Blood Soul Ring had refreshed, and the 150% damage boost was his greatest weapon for killing.

With two hand seals, a strange aura began to resonate in the air.

While using the Eight-Directions Eagle Strike to weaken the enemy, Xu Xiliang, observing with his peripheral vision, felt a shiver of apprehension.

"What is that thing..."

He originally thought that the Great Fire Bell Spell and Thunder Shocking Earth were the pinnacle below level 50, but now, the aura erupting from Li Rui had ascended to yet another level.

Not only him, but even Cheng Mingyue, striving to maintain the array from being broken by Huoli, couldn’t help but look up.

A dim Golden Body Skill avatar vaguely appeared behind Li Rui.

?!

Cheng Mingyue furrowed her brows.

She vaguely sensed that the dim avatar bore a slight resemblance to Huoli, not in form, but in spirit.

But as red thunder flowed out like a tidal wave, she no longer had time to focus on these.

An incomparably strong impact came from her mind, turning the Six-Harmony Imprisonment to ashes.

Community Thunder cared not whether the six pillars were friend or foe and engulfed them along with Huoli.
