My Misfortune Crushed Instances

When Li Rui turned into a stream of golden light and descended the mountain, leaving a monkey behind to keep watch, the middle-aged man explaining the situation was utterly confused.

He looked down at Yuan Erliang in front of him and found that the creature’s eyes also sparkled with bewilderment.

While one man and one monkey were bewildered, Li Rui had already rushed down the mountain to the most intense part of the battlefield.

"Sir! Step back a little, pay attention to safety."

The speaker was a sturdy man who Li Rui had just healed. In the eyes of most, only a few people were organized in the 01 team as higher-ups, due to the unique nature of the Secret Realm battlefield. It is stipulated that in a temporarily assembled team, first, the higher-ups of the main division have command authority, then those of other divisions. If the levels are the same, the smaller the number, the more command power they have.

This strong man wasn’t doubting Li Rui, he mainly thought that this person was an assistant. Normally, assistants don’t have short hands and wouldn’t rush to the frontline.

Li Rui didn’t have the time to waste words with him and directly asked, "First tell me, where is Yi Xin, we’ll discuss further after the battle."

The other party hadn’t had time to answer yet, when they saw a bolt of thunder strike down from the distance.

That wasn’t a Thunder Skill, but a Thunder Strike Skill summoned by using a skill, a professional skill from the Shaman system.

And Farah of the Western Kingdom, an Extraordinary upgraded to a Priest, was evidently in the thick of battle with Yi Xin.

Li Rui, like a scoundrel, once again abandoned his conversational partner and rushed toward the location of the Thunder Strike Skill without looking back.

.....

A scorched deep pit appeared in the center of the fiercest battlefield, cut by the Thunder Strike Skill, its power formidable.

To complete this spell that required chanting, the Western Kingdom paid the price of heavily injuring three people to finally hold Yi Xin down, yet despite this, the skill still failed to take the life of the Dragon Country’s rising star.

Though Yi Xin’s strength couldn’t be listed as high-risk among the four tiers, as someone at least on par with Nan Jiumei and others, he surely had many cards for survival.

He stood at the edge of the pit, sweat dripping from his forehead, a cold sweat.

In the eyes of others, he had gracefully dodged the Thunder Strike Skill just now, but he knew that if not for a life-saving item, he would have died here.

The opponent, a strong female priest with jet-black curly hair, evidently held much stronger prowess. Given the current situation, this strategic location was absolutely indefensible, and his mind had already turned to how to retreat safely.

Simply turning around and fleeing was certainly not feasible, as the opponent would pursue, potentially causing significant loss.

But how could he safely retreat? He wasn’t sure how many more skills he could endure, as the opponent’s strength was clearly a notch above his.

As he pondered, suddenly shouting erupted from the rear, someone had charged forward.

"Captain Yi, 0109 has come for support, he has healed our wounds, we can fight."

Hmm?

Yi Xin’s thoughts fluctuated.

If a number from the 01 group came for support, not only could they fight, but they could even win. But he felt it was strange; logically, 01 wouldn’t have support.

He was momentarily unsure of the situation and had no time to give orders because Farah Land had begun to act once more.

"You surviving this skill surprises me, but you will surely die today."

She spoke in Dragon Country language, somewhat clumsy, word choice and syntax rather odd.

Yi Xin, on the other hand, replied in Western Extreme Language, "Is that so? I think you are the one who should die."

No matter if his heart was uneasy, he couldn’t lose his momentum.

Boom!!!

After finishing their words, the two swiftly moved; a fierce explosion occurred above the pit, causing everyone around and the Demon Race allied with both sides to flee.

Yi Xin, progressing from a Sword Cultivator to a Sword Master, founded all his skills on controlling flying swords, capable of close-range attack and long-range defense.

While Farah Land, the High Priest, wasn’t purely spell-based but possessed a dual-wielding passive trait, holding a shield in one hand and a dagger in the other. If someone intruded closely, she could use the Elemental Blade skill for close combat.

Their battle alternated from intense clashes to using long-range skills, and after a few rounds, Yi Xin was clearly suppressed.

There was no reasoning, just a gap in strength, with the opponent rated as dangerous and him as high-risk, there was naturally a disparity.

However, Farah Land remained dissatisfied with the current progress because before dispatching, her Prophet had foretold that if the delay dragged on too long, the enemy might dispatch strong reinforcements.

Thus, even though she currently suppressed Yi Xin, seeing that with normal fighting, she couldn’t kill him immediately, she resolutely decided to use her ultimate skill.

She unleashed her hidden skill, Elemental Burst.

From this moment, within one minute, all her elemental skills would trigger twice, at the cost of entering a fatigue period afterward, lowering all elemental skill effects by 80%.

But a minute of double casting already suffices to complete the battle.

"Gale!"

With a sharp cry, the surrounding trees instantly toppled, sliced apart by Wind Blades coming from all directions.

Seeing this, Yi Xin hurriedly recalled the complete set of flying swords named Chain Eighteen Needles to form a Sword Array for protection nearby.

Wind Rest Consolidation was already the advanced skill of Wind Flow Burst, capable of summoning a massive amount of Wind Blades in a short time for a 360° attack without blind spots. Now, enhanced by Elemental Burst, the quantity doubled further.

When the forest was cut down, the battlefield was completely exposed, allowing both the Demon Race and Human Race to directly witness the anomaly here.

"So terrifying!"

"Captain Yi!"

"Reinforcement! Quick, 0412 to 0418, go!"

Several shadows immediately joined the fray.

But Farah Land didn’t only have one skill; she saw Yi Xin hanging on, pressed a hand in the air as the ground near Yi Xin shook with a rumble, golden flames erupted from the earth.

Earth Core Burst was originally a skill combining damage and control, now its damage multiplied, and the spewing flames created a wall blocking the reinforcements.

Splutter!

Wind Blades continuously left cuts on Yi Xin, as the endless Wind Rest continued its output.

After using her ultimate skill, Farah Land alone was enough to face the reinforcements of six Dragon Country Extraordinaries to slay a rising star.

This was the power she had to change the battlefield, and the reason the Western Kingdom sent her.

Logically, such a powerful figure appearing should have been predicted by Chen Cheng in advance. But due to their dispatch of a Prophet, the outcome was Chen Cheng only foreseeing the occurrence of variables. Until the female priest appeared, then he understood what kind of variable it was.

Nevertheless, now the situation is extremely critical, Yi Xin naturally felt very unwilling.

If he died here, it meant the Secret Realm battlefield had barely begun, yet he was out.

As a rising star with a promising future, he certainly couldn’t accept this conclusion, and Dragon Country’s Superpower Division didn’t want a talented young person to fall like this.

Therefore, Li Rui was dispatched here first thing, he arrived in time with his usual style—fierce yet few words, saying nothing, directly charging across the battlefield toward Farah Land.

The unexpected disruptor had caught everyone off guard, startling the female priest even more. She first caught sight of the figure crossing the battlefield at great speed, straight for her.

"Could it be the strong reinforcement foretold has come?"

"Really unfortunate timing, Elemental Burst has half a minute left, your luck is bad."

She internally soliloquized, abandoning the battered Yi Xin under the Wind Rest Consolidation, directing the skill at the newly arrived Li Rui.

When changing skill targets, there’s a brief gap allowing one to escape Wind Rest Consolidation’s lock.

Farah Land saw that this freshly appeared "strong reinforcement" hadn’t left the lock range, she couldn’t help but feel some disdain.

"Seems like just an inexperienced guy with an impressive air."

She hadn’t had time for more thoughts before seeing him charging under the Wind Rest Consolidation toward her, seemingly fearless of death.

Quickly she understood that he wasn’t purely seeking death because individually, the Wind Blade couldn’t deeply pierce his flesh but only left a cut, indicating high defense. Each wound could heal almost instantly.
