Born Sacred-Chapter 104: One Punch Clears Everything

[Archery Specialization Lv7+1]

[Quality: Rare Grade]

[Type: Passive Skill]

[Your archery is masterful and pure, hitting every target. Archery power +45%]

There wasn’t much to say about this skill. Noah planned to keep pursuing deep breakthroughs unless he obtained sufficiently good ranged weapons of other types.

There were also the last two upgradable skills, Savage Bloodline and Close Combat Specialization.

After Savage Bloodline evolved into a Bloodline ability, its difficulty in upgrading remained unchanged. It was the hardest skill to level up among all of them, currently staying at Lv9, not far from a breakthrough, but still providing Noah with a large amount of attributes and the powerful Bloodline Liberation.

As for Close Combat Specialization, Noah had originally considered expanding its scope infinitely at the Rare Grade, making it a true Close Combat Specialization, where any melee weapon and unarmed state would receive a powerful power bonus.

However, he quickly realized that this idea was not realistic.

Specialization had its limits.

The Rare Grade Close Combat Specialization could at most master three types of melee weapons and three types of unarmed combat styles.

Noah suspected that it might require reaching epic or Legendary to make it a true Close Combat Specialization. Of course, by then, it would definitely not be called a Specialization.

Since it couldn’t be infinitely expanded, Noah didn’t hesitate and directly chose a deep breakthrough. In the future, he would also decide whether to continue expanding based on his weapon and skill situation.

Thus, Close Combat Specialization became Noah’s fourth Perfect Grade skill.

[Close Combat Specialization Lv2+1]

[Quality: Perfect Grade]

[Type: Passive Skill]

[Your sword techniques, blade techniques, and fist techniques have reached their peak. Sword technique power +65%, blade technique power +65%, fist technique power +100%]

Because he first completed a breadth breakthrough, adding blade techniques, the level of Close Combat Specialization was actually one level lower than War Stomp and Mountain River Collapse.

The 65% bonus for sword and blade techniques, and the 100% bonus for fist techniques, were double the attributes at the same level compared to when it was Rare Grade.

With four Perfect Grade skills, three Rare Grade skills, supplemented by his own powerful attributes reaching up to sixty thousand, Noah didn’t know how strong he was now. Although he was only Tier 2, he was completely fearless when facing Three-order.

If he didn’t have this confidence, why would he have entered?

...

As Noah flew higher and higher, looking down at the earth from above, the terrain of this instance also quickly appeared before him.

This was an incredibly vast decaying forest, covering an extremely large area, estimated to be no less than one hundred thousand square kilometers. This was already equivalent to a relatively small province in Starfall Nation.

It far exceeded the size of a Tier 2 Disaster Instance.

In such a large place, just thinking about finding and killing all the otherworldly monsters made Noah’s head hurt.

As expected of a thousand-person instance, this territory was so large that it was definitely not something that a mere four people could clear out in a short time.

Just as Noah thought that this attempt to clear the Disaster Instance wouldn’t succeed in one go because he couldn’t afford to spend too much time in this instance, suddenly, Noah’s gaze narrowed slightly, looking at the small black dots on the ground.

One should know that from his height, normal humans were completely invisible, and only tall buildings could still be seen a little.

What were these small black dots?

As Noah’s altitude decreased, those small black dots also became clearer and clearer.

"Behemoths, they’re all behemoths." Noah gasped.

He was pleasantly surprised.

If this Disaster Instance was filled with these massive behemoths, then clearing it would be much simpler than he imagined, because it wasn’t easy for behemoths to hide due to their enormous size.

Thus, it became possible for him to clear the instance in a short time.

Just as Noah ascended to observe, the monsters in the instance also noticed him.

A flying creature resembling a pterodactyl suddenly accelerated, pouncing towards him like lightning.

Its entire body was enveloped in dense demonic energy. Its wingspan was over forty meters wide, much larger than the Thunder Hawks Noah had seen. The power of this pounce was enough to destroy tall buildings on Blue Star.

Clearly, this was a Tier 2 monster.

Noah didn’t even spare it a glance. Just as it was about to reach him, the cold moon demon blade appeared in his hand and swung out.

"Pfft~"

The massive head of the demonized pterodactyl directly exploded into a ball of blood mist. Its huge body fell powerlessly, crashing down with nothing left but bones.

The commotion here immediately attracted the attention of more behemoths in the instance, especially the other nearby demonized pterodactyls, which roared and flew over one after another.

Noah did not get entangled with them, and his body quickly descended.

It wasn’t that he was afraid of them, but rather that Noah knew that the monsters within the Disaster Instance were real existences; they had their own thoughts, especially those of Tier 2, who could even overcome the bloodthirsty impulse brought by the invasion of demonic energy.

Those Thunder Eagles in Thunder Mountain Valley all knew how to drive cannon fodder to consume Noah’s strength, and only then would they come out to harvest.

Noah had not seen Three-order monsters from another world, but he imagined they would be stronger and more difficult to deal with.

In Noah’s opinion, these flying monsters were the biggest difficulty in clearing the instance, because they could fly, and their flying speed was very fast; if they fled at full speed, Noah, who only knew Dance in the Air, would simply be unable to catch up.

Therefore, he couldn’t expose too much strength at the beginning, lest he scare them away.

Noah needed to find a suitable method, ideally one that could catch them all in one go; if not, he still needed to kill as many flying creatures as possible. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Finding Rose and the others, Noah explained his observations and asked if they had any suitable methods.

"It would have been great if Smith had come in with us; his Talent can taunt monsters." Zara slapped her thigh hard, her face full of annoyance: "But Smith’s taunt range is limited, and those flying monsters can fly far away, so its effect would probably be limited too."

"It’s not that there’s no way." Rose smiled slightly and took out an item.

[Bloody Bait]

[Quality: Fine]

[Type: Item]

[After use, it emits an extremely strong bloody smell, which can stimulate the bloodthirsty instinct of all creatures within a ten-kilometer radius, causing them to attack regardless of everything.]

"This is an item dropped from a Tier 2 instance. I saw it in the official treasury before and exchanged for it, considering it might be useful," Rose explained.

"Although it’s only Fine grade, Demonized Monsters already have a strong bloodthirsty impulse, and with the impact of this bloody bait, even Three-order monsters probably won’t be able to control their instinctive impulses."

Noah’s eyes lit up.

This item was very dangerous; under normal circumstances, it would undoubtedly be suicide, which was also why it appeared in the official treasury. But for Noah, who was powerful, there was no fear at all.

"My Soul Eye can launch an impact on the target’s soul, causing it to fall into states like daze and confusion. Even if Three-order monsters can forcefully suppress their instincts, under a soul impact, they won’t be able to control themselves," Lily also said.

Her Soul Eye was naturally not just as simple as obtaining the target’s memory.

Lily was Tier 2, and even with an SS-grade Talent, its effect on Three-order targets was very limited. However, the Three-order monsters at that time were already in an abnormal state, and the Soul Eye was merely the last straw that broke the camel’s back.
