MMO: Pierce Heaven Til’ It Breaks

It was not Li Yi, but Scumbag Wang who replied. He felt that Amber Sword Heart was trying to act the cool guy.

Amber Sword Heart did not respond to his taunt as he had no interest in Scumbag Wang. He was only looking for one person and that was Dark Wing!

Of course, Li Yi heard Amber Sword Heart’s call.

He was gobsmacked. He did not think Amber Sword Heart would be able to free himself from the Soul Bind state.

“Perverted Wing, is he your enemy?” Jiaojiao asked.

“I guess so.”

Jiaojiao waved her greatsword, “Slice him?”

Li Yi took out his Divine Looking Glass to show Jiaojiao Amber Sword Heart’s stats. Jiaojiao was completely shocked.

“How can he be so good?” Jiaojiao gasped with surprise.

Indeed he was good. A body of purple-colored equipment and all of them legendary. Each equipment added DEF and reduced damage. With close to 30,000 in DEF, anyone would hesitate.

Li Yi said, “With 50 million people playing the Warrior class in King of Pantheon, there’s bound to be one or two great ones. It’s no surprise.”

“I don’t believe he’s stronger than you,” Jiaojiao always has faith in Li Yi.

Li Yi smiled.

Jiaojiao’s thoughts about him have not changed, no matter in the past or present life, she has always believed in him…

Amber Sword Heart was powerful. He defeated Unending Unmatched in the first round of the God Wars and soared all the way to the finals.

Li Yi failed in the past life. He lost with such discontentment after being killed and ousted with one arrow shot by Shoot ‘Til Morning Light.

Assembled Gods, Legendary Tribe, Fluttering Snow Alliance…

Up to now, Li Yi had never forgotten the few top guilds that made it to the God Wars qualifications.

None of the guilds in the Eastern Continent made the cut. Apart from Li Yi, all Eastern Continent contestants never made the preliminary.

Li Yi still remembered the big bully Defiantly Tyrannical crying his eyes out. He did not have the skills and lost pretty badly, never making it to the finals.

“If Platinum Hand had regrouped, our Eastern Continent would’ve…”

“If…”

“If Amber Sword Heart was from our camp, then…”

He still recalled the most talked about topic by the Eastern Continent players were the various could haves and what ifs. It was too bad and in the end, none of those possibilities happened. Yet, the put-down and cursed cheater Li Yi earned his place in the God Wars qualification with his stellar ability.

Li Yi at that time was a definite dark horse that shook the Eastern Continent, or perhaps the entire Pantheon World.

With Li Yi progressing in the God Wars, the Eastern Continent players did not feel at all honored. In fact, they were ashamed and embarrassed. The reason was simple. His ability was shadowed by his status as a cheater.

“Hey, hey, Perverted Wing, hey…”

Jiaojiao shook her hand over Li Yi’s face, attempting to reel his attention back.

“Why were you staring into black space as if you’re a thinker? Oh please, you can do that in a few years’ time. You lack youthful vigor.”

“Hehe.”

Li Yi smiled and sent his coordinates off in the regional channel.

He has accepted the challenge!

“Amber Sword Heart, you see that? These are my coordinates. You want to take revenge? I’m waiting for you!”

With his enemy already knocking at his door, he has to rise to the challenge then. If playing a game meant playing hide and seek, then that was not Li Yi!

Jiaojiao held her greatsword above her, “If he dares to come, I will slice him!”

Li Yi pinched her nimble nose and laughed, “Oh you, it’s best you go level up. Once you’ve learned Undead Arm, you’ll be able to help me.”

“I’m going to look for the entryway to the depths. You wait here for him then.”

Jiaojiao lugged her greatsword and treaded into a passageway.

Li Yi took out his orange bow. By now, the Divine Jade has merged into it halfway. As long as the goddess was given a bit more time, she would be able to absorb it entirely.

“Goddess, how long more do you need?”

“One hour or three days…”

“Why the big difference?”

Hunter Goddess did not reply. However, the surface of the orange bow was glimmering and darkening. It was obvious she was focusing her full attention into absorbing and could not be distracted to reply to him.

It was then when Jiaojiao sent a private message, “Perverted Wing, I found the entryway. It’s not underground but on top. I stabbed with my sword and a hole appeared.”

“Great!” Li Yi regained his spirits and summoned Lightning Leopard. He held Murloc Crossbow in his hand and patiently awaited Amber Sword Heart’s arrival.

Li Yi was ignited with fighting spirit!

Li Yi’s voice note not only alerted Amber Sword Heart but everyone else as well.

Leaving a shout in the regional channel could be heard by anyone within the region, no matter the camp.

Pretty Good Mood was the first to react. He stopped farming monsters and ran to the pathway which Amber Sword Heart would have to pass to block him.

Being able to command Scarab King must have gotten to Pretty Good Mood’s head.

Scarab King crouched at the corner of the way and waited for its prey to present himself.

Over ten minutes later, someone arrived!

However, it was not Amber Sword heart but the Wolf couple!

Even with the coordinates in Wailing Grotto, it did not guarantee the place could be found. The passageways here extended to all directions, diverging into thousands of pathways. One wrong turn could result in lots of time wasted.

The Wolf couple was having the worst day of their lives. First, they were killed by Scumbag Wang. Then, by Amber Sword Heart. They intended to launch a sneak attack upon discovering Li Yi’s coordinates but midway, they bumped into Pretty Good Mood.

Pretty Good Mood had issued an auto attack mode on Scarab King. When the Wolf couple moved forth, they disregarded Scarab King and carelessly walked into the 10-yard danger zone.

Within the 10-yard radius, Scarab King trilled in warning and pounced on Red Wolf, taking her out in three seconds. Next victim was Gray Wolf. This guy was on point, activating Phantom Footprint to flee by summoning Little Skeletons.

“Sins Ablution!”

Pretty Good Mood who was hiding in the dark pointed his quarterstaff and cleansed Gray Wolf of his Invincibility effect.

Sins Ablution was a specialty of a Contract Summoner to cleanse all beneficial-type skills — Invincibility, Shield Wall, buff all could be wiped away. If it were not for its long cooldown period, this would have been commonly used amongst Contract Summoners.

Sins Ablution’s cooldown period was three hours.

Scarab King’s pursuit took down Gray Wolf in no time. From the start to the end of the battle took less than ten seconds.

“Hahahaha…” Pretty Good Mood was laughing with glee. This Great Commander had never been so happy since day one of playing the game. He was often killed by bosses in dungeons and tortured by players in the wild. The tables have turned and now it was him torturing others.

Guild Master, I’m so in love with you!

Pretty Good Mood was bustling with joy. He could not come up with the words to express his gratitude to Li Yi.

If it were not for Li Yi, he would never have been able to contract Scarab King…

Pretty Good Mood pointed his finger and Scarab King returned to its spot. However, soon afterward, Scarab King suddenly trilled and swarmed towards Red Wolf’s corpse, head-butting it.

[-1]

Poor Red Wolf, her Keep Going If Alive skill was seen through and now she was definitely dead…

Pretty Good Mood burst out in laughter while Pale Blue Elegance’s eyes were blazing with envy.

Who wouldn’t want this monstrous summoned beast?

Scarab King returned to position. Pretty Good Mood and Pale Blue Elegance too, went into hiding, waiting patiently for Amber Sword Heart.

This was the only way to get to Li Yi’s coordinates!

Seven minutes later, Amber Sword Heart entered this pathway, clamping on his Glory Shield.

Pretty Good Mood was overjoyed as he watched intently. His heart was racing.

20 yard… 17 yards… 15 yards… 12 yards… 10 yards!

“Die!”

At the sound of Pretty Good Mood’s voice, Scarab King charged towards Amber Sword Heart.

“Clang clang clang!”

Amber Sword Heart held his shield up to block and a -2,345 damage appeared on top of his head.

He has such terrifying DEF that even Scarab King could not kill him instantly.

Tst—

With Amber Sword Heart successfully blocking, Scarab King, in turn, suffered a -9,000,000 HP damage.

It was Pretty Good Mood’s turn to be utterly flabbergasted.

Damage-reversal Block!

Glory Shield has to be used with Glory Sword to trigger this special effect. Once Block was successful, it could take off 10% of target’s HP!

The higher the HP, the bigger the HP reduction.

“How’s that possible? This… Sca’, ram him, ram!” Yelled Pretty Good Mood.

Scarab King kept crashing while Amber Sword Heart kept blocking. The huge impact caused him to slide backward, as damage constantly appeared on top of his head.

Each time the block was successful, Scarab King took a 10% HP reduction. After about ten times, Scarab King with a whopping 90,000,000 HP was hanging by a thread…

“Returning Shield, die!”

Amber Sword Heart’s shield was pushed across with Returning Shield and double Block effect, jerking Scarab King away by tens of meters before dropping dead.

Scarab King with a colossal 90,000,000 HP has died by the hands of Amber Sword Heart.

Pretty Good Mood’s jaw dropped, so did Pale Blue Elegance’s. Both of them were still as statues. Fleeing was out of their minds as Amber Sword Heart made his way over.

To revive a dead summoned beast, it would take a day for a regular summoned beast, two days for an Elite summoned beast, and three days for a Boss level summoned beast!

Scarab King was a Boss-level summoned beast. It would take at least three days to raise it from the dead.

“Frost Arrow Storm!”

At that command, a Giant Frost Tiger ran over and launched an attack at Pretty Good Mood and Pale Blue Elegance outside a 30-yard distance.

Frost Arrows rained down heavily, leaving nowhere to hide. Pale Blue Elegance was quick on her feet as she activated Phantom Footprints and fled. Only Pretty Good Mood foolishly stood there and was shot to death…

He still could not process the fact that his mighty Scarab King was killed by Amber Sword Heart…

“Roar—”

Giant Frost Tiger was quick too, catching up to Pale Blue Elegance in no time. It opened its mouth to devour her before spitting her back out.

Pft!

Pale Blue Elegance was now a big block of ice, stuck in her running position but frozen to death…

A golden holy glow descended upon Amber Sword Heart, fully restoring his HP.

It was a normal Holy Light heal, recovering 15,000+ of Amber Sword Heart’s HP.

Amber Sword Heart turned back and coldly blurted at Alex, “I will take care of my own business. There’s no need for your help!”

Alex helplessly shrugged and while the yellow-robed Priest chuckled and patted his shoulder. They were still on Amber Sword Heart’s tail.

“Dark Wing, I’m coming!” Shouted Amber Sword Heart as he took large strides over.

He wanted to shake Alex and the yellow-robed Priest off his tail and challenge Li Yi to a duel!
