Systemless Villain-Chapter 233 An Unexpected Enemy
Chapter 233 An Unexpected Enemy
Within the portal, the atmosphere remained unremarkable, characterized by clear weather that mirrored the initial moments when Long Tian and Liu Qian entered.
Presently, they stood within a dense forest, their gaze directed at an imposing gate that appeared intricately connected to a colossal and towering mountain.
"This seems to be the location of the final boss. Let's proceed inside," declared Long Tian.
In agreement, Liu Qian nodded, and together they advanced toward the formidable gate.
Long Tian extended his hand, making contact with the gate's surface, recognizing its composition as stone. "I believe I can break through this," he asserted.
Infused with determination, he balled his fist, and the tattoo on his right arm ignited with a crimson radiance. In the next moment, he forcefully struck the gate.
Crack!
The resounding crack echoed through the air as the gate splintered wide open, swiftly crumbling to pieces and unveiling a foreboding darkness within.
Without a moment's hesitation, Long Tian and Liu Qian stepped into the darkness, contrasting with the light behind them from the fractured entrance.
Pressing onward, the obscurity persisted, and at a specific juncture, the ground beneath them quivered, disrupting their balance.
Swiftly turning around, they were met with the sight of the entrance, previously shattered, now fully restored, as though untouched by any upheaval.
Liu Qian, responding to the situation, conjured blue flames with a raise of her finger, offering a source of light. "It seems we're genuinely trapped here. Well, we have no choice but to explore this place," she remarked.
"Perhaps, after we confront the final boss, we can find a way out," she added.
With resolute determination, they delved deeper into the enigmatic darkness.
As their journey unfolded, the ground underwent a transformation, transitioning from soil to a rocky floor adorned with intricate carvings.
Remaining vigilant, they proceeded cautiously, anticipating potential threats lurking ahead.
After several minutes, Long Tian abruptly halted, extending his hand to obstruct Liu Qian's path.
Intrigued, Liu Qian was on the verge of making a comment when a sudden vibration interrupted her. This time, it was subtler, lacking the intensity to send them sprawling.
Both became even more attuned to their surroundings, especially Long Tian, whose instincts signaled the approach of an impending threat.
The vibrations persisted, and before long, numerous stone pillars ascended from the engraved floor, their tips ablaze.
The once-shadowed expanse transformed into a spectacle of light, courtesy of the dozens of fiery stone pillars now encircling the area.
Standing amidst the expansive stone floor encircled by pillars of fire, Long Tian and Liu Qian faced a space vast enough to rival three football fields. Their expressions reflected caution, wary of potential threats lurking in the illuminated expanse.
Long Tian experienced a sense of déjà vu, reminiscent of his encounter with the god of death in the secret realm.
In an unexpected turn, an ancient stone table emerged from the floor, capturing the attention of both Long Tian and Liu Qian. Positioned on the ancient table was an object—a slime!
Liu Qian, raising an eyebrow, remarked, "So, that's the final boss, a slime?" Long Tian, sensing the peculiarity, lowered his guard upon recognizing it as a slime.
"It doesn't look dangerous at all," Liu Qian confidently stated, approaching the seemingly harmless slime.
However, her confident strides came to an abrupt halt when the slime, in a sudden twist, transformed into a humanoid figure. The form was still imperfect, marked by numerous lumps, until a few seconds later, the slime assumed the likeness of Long Tian in a translucent white hue!
The expressions of both Long Tian and Liu Qian mirrored surprise, with Long Tian particularly taken aback by the unexpected cloning of his form.
"What the hell, it changed its form?" he exclaimed in astonishment.
However, his amazement swiftly shifted to disbelief as he witnessed the manifestations of Zeus and Shen Long materializing behind the slime.
"ROAAAARRR!"
The resounding roar of a dragon echoed, and two black dragons, now in a translucent white state, appeared.
The expressions of Long Tian and Liu Qian shifted to seriousness. The slime not only altered Long Tian's form but also replicated his powers!
"That doesn't look easy at all," Long Tian said earnestly.
"Well, with you and me, it seems like we can face it," Liu Qian responded, grinning as she cracked her fingers.
Long Tian simply flicked his fingers, summoning Zeus and Shen Long behind him, their colossal forms exuding a menacing presence.
"Let's kill it!" he declared with clear intent to kill.
They sprinted towards the slime together. The tattoos on both of Long Tian's arms had transformed into two black dragons, soaring towards the translucent dragons owned by the slime.
Long Tian, with his lightning speed, arrived in front of the slime faster, attacking with his dragon claws. The sharp claws swiftly moved towards the face of the slime.
But before his attack landed, the slime suddenly moved like lightning, appearing behind him and striking with its own dragon claws!
Before its attack connected, Phoenix feathers hit its back, causing an explosion that immediately halted its assault.
Long Tian swiftly turned around and uppercut the slime, sending it flying high into the air. Not stopping there, with the speed of lightning, he zigzagged and reappeared near the slime.
Holding two bolts of lightning in his fists, he exclaimed, "Die!"
The slime rapidly executed the same attack, causing lightning to explode in the air, creating a spectacular display.
Liu Qian gaped at the scene above. The speed of Long Tian and the slime resembled lightning, making it impossible for her eyes to follow.
Flashes of lightning were visible in the air, clearly indicating the intense battle between Long Tian and his own clone.
Liu Qian couldn't intervene, considering her speed was far below Long Tian's.
Thunderous crashes and lightning flashes echoed in the sky, coupled with the four dragons engaged in combat, creating an extraordinary spectacle of battle.
In the midst of the ongoing lightning strikes, the clash of swords resonated through the air. The slime, having not only replicated all of Long Tian's powers but also his weapon, engaged in a Darkblade vs. Darkblade duel, creating an appearance of balanced confrontation.
Clank!
A resounding clank echoed as a single clash disrupted the equilibrium, causing both Long Tian and the slime to momentarily lose their balance in the fierce combat beneath.
Taking note of this, Liu Qian transformed into a spectacle of Phoenix feathers, ablaze with blue flames. Swiftly, she materialized near the slime, unleashing a precise slash with her dagger.
Slash!
Her strike landed directly on the neck, yet the slime displayed an apparent immunity to pain. Unyielding, Liu Qian continued her assault, flapping her Phoenix wings and launching a barrage of Phoenix feathers at the slime.
Moving with the speed of lightning, the slime adeptly avoided each feather, each impact creating explosive bursts upon hitting the ground.
Unbeknownst to the slime, its exclusive focus on Liu Qian left it vulnerable. Suddenly, a robust humanoid dark soul, an emanation of Long Tian, materialized and seized the slime, rendering it immobile.
Witnessing this, Liu Qian swiftly reverted to her Phoenix feather form, materializing right in front of the slime. She initiated an unrelenting assault, unleashing a flurry of slashes and strikes upon the slime.
Amidst Liu Qian's relentless onslaught, the slime's eyes illuminated with a radiant white glow. In the ensuing moment, its form detonated with black lightning, causing the dark soul to instantaneously evaporate. Liu Qian, too, was forcefully thrown back, bearing burn injuries from the powerful explosion. freewebn ovel.c om
Now, the slime's body, shrouded in black lightning, assumed an even more menacing aspect. Long Tian marveled at the slime's ability to harness black lightning, a skill he himself had yet to master.
Regaining his focus, Long Tian witnessed the Darkblade in his grip vanishing, replaced by his body emitting a sublime white energy.
He swiftly lunged towards the slime. The slime remained motionless, seemingly anticipating Long Tian's approach, its two hands crackling with black lightning, poised to strike at any moment.
As Long Tian closed the distance, the slime raised its hand. However, in an unexpected turn, the slashing wounds covering its body erupted in brilliant blue flames, swiftly dispersing the menacing black lightning.
Seizing this opportune moment, Long Tian clenched his fist with determination. Suddenly, a sword materialized in his hand
—the Blade of Olympus!
Holding the hilt tightly, he thrust the blade into the slime's body, impaling it through to its back. freew ebnov el
Long Tian suppressed the rapid drain of his energy, and his effort seemed worthwhile. The Blade of Olympus appeared to absorb the slime's essence, gradually causing its form to evaporate.
Yet, the slime refused to be defeated without a struggle. It seized Long Tian by the neck, its hands crackling with lightning. The shock jolted Long Tian, causing his grip on the Blade of Olympus to falter, making the blade vanish into the void.
Leveraging the power of dragon, Long Tian managed to break free, retreating dozens of steps backward.
The lingering pain from the lightning shock persisted, despite his mastery of that power.
Meanwhile, the slime displayed visible hollowness from the Blade of Olympus stab, but signs of regeneration were evident.
The slime made a move, but unexpectedly, a dagger soared towards the punctured wound, meticulously sealing it.
In the following moment...
Boom!
The dagger erupted into a colossal blue flame, creating a mushroom-like explosion.
Long Tian was taken aback, not anticipating Liu Qian's precision in her attack.
The vivid blue flame was short-lived, and a few seconds later, it dissipated entirely, revealing no trace of the slime or Long Tian's form.
Long Tian, witnessing this, let out a sigh of relief. "I think it's dead," he said, glancing to the side where Liu Qian approached him.
Standing beside Long Tian, Liu Qian promptly healed him with her phoenix fire, gradually mending his wounds.
Liu Qian couldn't hide her smile. "How about my abilities? Even though I'm slower, I don't miss any opportunity," she said, her tone tinged with pride.
Long Tian simply returned the smile and playfully ruffled Liu Qian's hair. "Yeah, your final attack felt like plot armor," he remarked.
Liu Qian looked genuinely pleased, praised by the man she loved, stirring a unique feeling within her.
The two of them became immersed in their intimacy, and without realizing it, the slime reappeared. This time, it took on a slimy form, no longer resembling a human shape.
Long Tian and Liu Qian noticed this and swiftly directed their gaze toward the slime.
Before they could react, the slime shot towards Liu Qian.
Instinctively, Liu Qian caught the slime.
Rather than attacking, the slime clung to her hand.
"What's happening?" she said, puzzled.
Long Tian was also perplexed. He clearly felt no threat from the slime, unlike before.
Suddenly, he realized something. "Qian'er, do you feel anything?" he asked earnestly.
"What do you mean?" Liu Qian asked in return, her eyebrows raised in confusion.
"I mean, about that slime. My instincts tell me it chose you, maybe because you were the one who defeated it," Long Tian responded, rubbing his chin.
Liu Qian also rubbed her chin while looking at the slime still clinging to her hand.
"Let me try something," she said.
With that, she squeezed the slime tightly. The slime seemed to evaporate into a soft white smoke.
The slime completely disappeared, but beside it, a translucent white form of Long Tian emerged!
Both Long Tian and Liu Qian were taken aback.
"That's... It seems I don't need to worry about you from now on," Long Tian said.
Liu Qian was also speechless, not expecting to get a clone of Long Tian.
But the clone didn't last long and immediately evaporated back into smoke.
"Where did it go?" Long Tian asked.
"I don't know. But I feel like it entered into my body. Maybe from now on, I can summon it, but it also seems to depend on strength and energy," Liu Qian responded.
Long Tian nodded, then smiled and tousled Liu Qian's hair. "Good thing the slime chose you. I won't worry if you're in danger," he said.
"But I prefer you worrying about me," Liu Qian responded, her smile teasing as she hugged Long Tian.
"Well, I might worry if you choose to be with another man during the Yuan Dynasty," Long Tian responded with a smirk.
"That will never happen. Forever, it's only you in my heart, Long Tian," Liu Qian said, her smile persisted.
Hearing this, Long Tian couldn't hide his smile and immediately kissed Liu Qian.
Liu Qian also responded by putting her arms around Long Tian's neck.
They both kissed passionately before finally leaving this place.
