Chapter 260: The Old Man’s Request
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
As Li Yidao launched his attack, at that moment, everyone on the battlefield looked at him in astonishment!
This attack, indeed, did not inflict any fatal injuries on the opponent.
However, the adversary was undoubtedly in discomfort.
In the current situation, Li Yidao’s strike added insult to injury, worsening the already damaged body instantly.
The opponent’s struggles clearly indicated the severity of the situation.
“Hoo… We can’t confront him head-on. Let’s withdraw all the insects. Continuing like this will only lead to death. Relying on them to attack is no longer realistic,” the old man commanded, observing more and more people from Yun City falling.
Seeing the worsening situation, the old man ordered all the insects to retreat.
Given the present circumstances, continuing the attack with the insects would be a suicidal rhythm.
The main issue was that the damage inflicted by the insects on the opponent’s body was limited, perhaps not even reaching the internal organs, only affecting the outer skin and tissue.
Under such circumstances, it naturally became meaningless.
The elders of Yun City also recognized this problem and directly issued commands using a whistle-like sound.
Subsequently, the pervasive blackness began to slowly recede, leaving only a few remaining red insects surrounding the opponent.
They gradually distanced themselves from the current battlefield, clearly intending to wear down the opponent slowly.
Li Yidao attempted to use the Blade of Death or Soul Seizure to attack the opponent.
Unfortunately…
Things did not go as planned.
For some reason, or perhaps these red insects belonged to a unique species, both the Blade of Death and Soul Seizure abilities did not affect them.
This made Li Yidao quite uncomfortable. In many instances, his attack power was indeed inadequate.
He could only resort to the use of talismans.
He believed that with enough time and a sufficient number of talismans, he could probably overwhelm the opponent. However, that would not be easy.
Needing how many talismans to be consumed was not the current focus.
Would the opponent give him this chance?
Just now, after he threw a talisman, it was evident that the opponent had locked onto his presence.
If he used a few more talismans, would the opponent directly launch an attack?
If that happened, would he collapse?
Could he withstand the opponent’s assault?
The answer was negative!
At present, his lifespan was not even a thousand years.
If he were truly attacked, triggering the Grim Reaper’s Protection, there was a high probability that he would end up putting himself to death!
so…
He had means of attack but dared not use them!
He could mindlessly threw out all the talismans in his hand!
This way, there was a high probability of resolving the opponent.
Similarly, there was another possibility—a high chance that Li Yidao might just manage to resolve the opponent but end up exhausting all his talismans in the process.
The most tragic aspect was not only failing to eliminate the opponent but also depleting all talismans, ultimately succumbing to the opponent’s attack.
If it were the first two scenarios, it would be manageable; he could be more cautious in future battles.
But…
If he encountered this last possibility, the result could be easily imagined.
For him, it would be a colossal disaster!
Under such circumstances, Li Yidao naturally chose not to proceed.
Most likely, it would be a loss with no return!
Should he still go ahead?
Most importantly, it wasn’t the final moment yet.
He could see that the old man and the others had not truly exerted all their efforts.
It was as if they were gradually intensifying their attacks.
Otherwise, using ultra-powerful attacks directly might make the opponent collapse immediately!
It might even cause the opponent to go berserk!
In that case, the opponent would counterattack desperately!
Acting on instinct, the damage they would incur was also astonishing!
They were going to consume the opponent’s strength as much as possible, slowly pushing the opponent into death!
At the final moment of the opponent’s strength, they would then go all out to kill!
It had to be said, this kind of battle strategy was a very prudent choice.
But…
Even with a correct choice, unexpected situations often arose in many cases.
After all, no one knew how the battle process would unfold.
“You should also step back; we can handle it here.”
The old man noticed the hostility of the gigantic insect towards Li Yidao.
To ensure his safety, he intended to let Li Yidao retreat.
However, it was too late!
As soon as the old man’s words fell, the long antennae of the opponent suddenly extended!
Not only that, the elongated antennae were directly attacking Li Yidao’s position!
Fast! Accurate! Ruthless!
If Li Yidao hadn’t had an instinctive perception of danger and subconsciously dodged! freew(e)bnove(l)
This attack would have directly hit his heart!
But this wasn’t the reason Li Yidao felt fear!
Moments ago, the opponent clearly intended to kill him!
And he genuinely faced the imminent threat of death!
However… there was no change in Grim Reaper’s Protection!
The Grim Reaper’s Protection, which should have been triggered, unexpectedly failed!
Exhaling deeply, he realized he couldn’t afford any mistakes now. The only lifeline was the bracelet on his wrist.
It could provide full defense once.
However, the opponent’s attacks were definitely not going to end after just one attempt!
He could dodge once, but it was destined that he couldn’t evade a second time!
“Humph! Beast!”
Seeing Li Yidao under attack, the group that had been besieging the giant insect became furious.
The old man remained silent.
His entire aura suddenly surged!
The original attack power increased once again!
The others followed suit!
In that instant, their attacks began to escalate!
The gigantic insect was forced to retreat for a moment!
Witnessing this scene, Yang Feng took a deep breath!
Without a word, he took out three talismans!
Whenever there was a gap in the attacks of the old man and the others, giving the opponent a chance to catch their breath, he immediately threw one out!
He prevented the opponent from mounting an effective defense or counterattack!
It could only passively endure the onslaught!
Under their fierce attacks and coordinated efforts, the opponent, originally several meters high, shrank in size at that moment!
It was evident that the excessive consumption forced it to reduce its own body size!
