All My Professions Have Divine-Level Talents-Chapter 50: Fiery Temper

BOOM!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Cracks simultaneously spiderwebbed across three walls. It was impossible to tell what kind of attack it had used.

All he knew was that in the next second...

All three walls shattered at once!

BANG!

This time, it finally broke through!

THUD—

Just as it was about to charge out, it slammed headfirst into an invisible wall.

「Protective Barrier (Level: 201)」

Although it was called a Protective Barrier, it could also be cast externally.

After all, it had evolved from "Rigid Barrier," and all versions of the Skill were compatible.

It was just like how Lu Cang could use both Ice Shuttle and Ice Cone.

Breaking through a Heavy Wall, only to crash into a barrier.

Before it could shatter the barrier, three Heavy Walls rose once more.

"Human! Is there no end to this?!"

’It’s pretty smart.’

’It knows I might not be able to replace the walls in time if it breaks all three at once.’

But it was mistaken.

His Magic was Triple Casting; he could complete all three simultaneously.

He could easily replace them if he wanted to.

However, Lu Cang decided to use this opportunity to observe its condition.

He wanted to find out why it was so durable.

One glance was all it took to understand.

Its body, made of blood, was constantly absorbing more. From beneath the throne, a steady stream of blood surged upward, pouring into its form.

’Every one of my attacks... is depleting its blood.’

’So, does it have a weakness?’

Lu Cang’s gaze swept across the room...

’Forget it. I’ll just destroy the entire room first.’

The altar was first.

Lu Cang’s Earth Fire no longer targeted the boss directly, instead erupting in the center of the area!

BOOM!

Molten rock shot out!

Giant spikes erupted from the ground!

Sharp stones rained down from the ceiling.

「Celestial Peak Falling Stone (Tier Two) (Level: 201)」

Lu Cang hadn’t just been leveling up his old Magic. Over the past few days, he had also deliberately sought out new Magic to learn.

He was improving every day.

In an instant, the pristine altar was blasted to pieces!

SPLAT!

He hadn’t even finished a full carpet-bombing run when he heard the sound of gushing blood and tearing flesh from the distance.

’It worked?’

’That quickly?’

’Looks like exploiting mechanics is faster than a direct assault after all.’

But the very next moment after Lu Cang’s thought—

BOOM!

A Heavy Wall instantly shattered!

Immediately after, the barrier in front of the Heavy Wall also shattered!

PFFT!

A streak of blood-red light shot straight toward Lu Cang.

’So fast!’

’And so powerful!’

’You’ve got to be kidding me.’

’It went berserk?’

’Damn, I really shouldn’t have messed around.’

Lu Cang cursed internally, but his hands didn’t slow down one bit!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

A total of twelve Heavy Walls formed in the passage before him, with three barriers layered in front.

Lu Cang instantly canceled the Heavy Walls protecting Luo Si and the others, using them all to shield himself.

He had been in this narrow passage the whole time.

If the enemy wanted to kill him, it had to get through this passage!

BOOM!

The boss slammed into the barrier in an instant!

Countless droplets of blood flew in all directions!

But it also instantly shattered the three overlapping barriers!

’Fuck?’

’It has that much damage?’

BANG!

After the barriers shattered, before the boss could even hit the Heavy Wall, three more barriers instantly appeared!

BOOM!

It furiously swung its arm in a devastating smash!

The three barriers shattered again!

This time, its attack landed directly on the Heavy Wall!

The immense penetrating power actually blasted through two walls in a row!

But at almost the exact same moment, the barriers regenerated again!

And as the barriers appeared, the two Heavy Walls that had just been destroyed were also restored.

RUMBLE!

Earth Fire, Ice Shuttles, flurries of wind, Thunder Flash, Holy Judgment Cross, water-whip blades, and entangling Poison Vines—a whole barrage of Magic also hailed down!

’Bring it on!’

’You wanna fight? Let’s fight!’

’Let’s see if you can attack faster than I can defend!’

Lu Cang was getting pissed off too.

’I have two Divine Talents! I’ve been lying low for so long, and you’re telling me I can’t even solo you?’

’If I can’t solo you, who in this world can?’

His usual caution didn’t mean Lu Cang was a pushover.

He was cautious because he wanted to lie low and grind, to become invincible once he was fully developed. If he got cocky and died before reaching his peak, wouldn’t that be a total waste?

’But if I’ve been grinding for this long and still can’t beat one little boss, then what the hell was the point of it all?’

’A King Level Demon isn’t the pinnacle of the world.’

’If I can’t even beat you, who can I beat?!’

’Oh, right.’

’I wanted to save them not for some complicated reason, but simply because I felt it was something within my power to do.’

’I came to save them because I believed I could kill you. If this were a Tier Seven or Tier Eight Dungeon, I wouldn’t have dared to take a single step inside.’

’When it comes down to it, I just feel like you can’t kill me!’

With that, Lu Cang’s thoughts became crystal clear!

His Magic became faster and faster!

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

Thunderstorm, Fire Collapse, Punching Pillar—

EXPLODE! EXPLODE! EXPLODE! EXPLODE! EXPLODE! EXPLODE!

Blood flew and splattered wildly as Heavy Walls stacked one upon another.

At the same time, a violent wind blasted forth!

The boss had barely taken two steps forward before it was blasted back by the gale!

「Rejection Wind Roar (Level: 201) — Forced Repulsion, Knockback Magic, Wind Damage Increase」

After blasting it away, Lu Cang’s line of defense was re-established.

One man and one monster, locked in a head-on clash.

However, Lu Cang was completely unscathed.

The creature’s state was clearly deteriorating; blood was constantly gushing from its body, and it seemed to be gradually shrinking in size.

...

’What kind of monster is this Mage?’

’I’ve never seen his Magic before.’

’And why can he keep Casting without any Chanting?’

’How can he cast so much Magic? Is his Magic Power infinite?!’

’He’s even dried up the Blood Pool!’

’Even going all out in my Blood Rage state, I still can’t break through his defenses?’

’The barriers...’

’Those damn barriers, how do they appear so quickly?’

’And those walls!’

’And that wind!’

’I struggle just to break two walls and advance two steps, only to be blasted away by a gale. I can’t even get close!’

’An attack with all my might can only shatter a few layers of barriers.’

’And that human child...’

’...he just stares at me with those cold, indifferent eyes, as if looking at some boring piece of trash.’

’Am I boring trash?’

’I, the Bloodline Monarch, am boring trash?’

"I am not trash!"

"You’re the trash! Human!"

"You... are the trash!"

SWOOSH!

All the blood in the room—splattered on the walls, pooled on the floor, from every direction—instantly converged on it!

However, explosive tremors erupted from all sides!

A gale instantly scattered all the blood it was trying to absorb!

...

’As if I’d let the enemy get what it wants.’

’It’s obviously about to power up. I can’t just let it suck up blood that easily...’

WHOOSH!

Ice Shuttles zipped through the air, freezing the blood.

Earth Fire erupted, and Flame Balls exploded!

Evaporating the blood!

Basically, he just wouldn’t let it absorb anything.

As for what it was grumbling about... Lu Cang wasn’t interested.

’A Demon barking a few times is normal.’

’Best to just ignore such meaningless words.’

From beginning to end...

...Lu Cang didn’t say a single word.

Only the Bloodline Monarch was roaring and raging, which only made it look more like an incompetent loser!

But...

...faced with Lu Cang, it was truly helpless to turn the tide.

The Blood Pool had truly been completely drained by Lu Cang, leaving it with no reinforcements. Its final burst of power had also failed to break through Lu Cang’s turtle-like defense.

’Why the hell is this Mage’s defense so strong?’

’What’s the point of such an airtight defense?!’

It had planned to use its Blood Pool to drain Lu Cang’s Magic Power. After all, he was a Mage.

For any Mage, Magic Power was their weak point.

’What kind of Mage has infinite Magic Power?’

’What kind of Mage can cast Magic nonstop?’

’If I just wore him down, he was bound to run out of Magic Power eventually.’

But even at the brink of death...

...it never found out when Lu Cang’s Magic Power would finally hit its limit.

WHOOSH!

The scorching Earth Fire engulfed it once again.

CLANG—

This time, the sound of falling armor echoed.

It no longer stood tall like a Monarch. It had fallen to the ground. The blood that formed its body no longer held together, seeping into the earth instead.

All that remained on the ground was a suit of armor and a few brilliant, crystalline Blood Beads.

Seeing this, Lu Cang finally let out a sigh of relief.

’Man, finally killed it.’

’It was seriously tanky.’

Lu Cang checked his internal Magic Power... still 3,000,000.

He hadn’t lost even a single point of Magic Power in that entire battle.

「Void Realm (Level: 200) — Restores 10% Magic Power per second, continuously increases Magic Power cap, Magic Absorption Resistance, self-generates Magic Power, higher Quality Magic Power」

’It roared so loud and sounded so imposing before.’

’I thought it was one of those mechanic-based monsters you couldn’t kill by grinding it down. Turns out it can die after all.’

Lu Cang looked at the armor on the ground...

’The loot from a King Level Demon should be pretty substantial, right?’
