Absolute Destiny Game.

Chapter 501 True Dragon Takes Form, Immortal Laws Are Ruthless

However, time was of the essence, and he had no time for careful consideration.

I glanced at my backpack and saw two talismans prominently displayed.

Escape Light Talisman, Nine Abyss Locking Spirit Talisman.

This Nine Abyss Locking Spirit Talisman was made by an immortal. Even if the opponent is also an immortal, it should still have some effect. The 30-second spell-blocking time can buy some time if it hits.

However, the opponent's super speed and super strength are probably passive effects inherent to the immortal, and they are probably ridiculously strong even without magic.

As for the Escape Talisman—if I were to use it, Hongchen would most likely interrupt me. The Escape Talisman has a few seconds of casting time, and given Hongchen's speed, I would probably be interrupted as soon as I started casting. Even if I could escape, it would be worse; in a fit of rage, Hongchen would probably kill everyone before he would stop.

Moreover, Xiao Jie strongly suspected that with the power of an immortal, even if he teleported away, the other party could catch up instantly.

Besides these two talismans, Xiao Jie's greatest reliance was his ability to transform into human form.

But in Xiao Jie's view, none of the Howling Moon Wolf, Storm Thunder Eagle, Mountain Lord of Zhenyue, or Azure Scale Golden Dragon had any chance of winning.

Perhaps the only way to put up a fight is to transform into a dragon. Even if he can't win, he can still fly into the sky as a dragon. When Hongchen sees him running away, he will definitely chase after him. In this way, at least his teammates will be safe.

Xiao Jie originally intended to use this move as a trump card. During the previous chaotic battle, he was unable to use this super-large transformation spell for fear of accidentally injuring others.

But at this moment, there's no need for so many concerns.

Having made his decision, he was about to take action when he heard a scream. Looking up, he saw a scene that made his eyes bloodshot.

------

I'm not stupid. I witnessed the process of killing those players in the mortal world. He dared to rush in part because he was mindful of Xiao Jie's past care and friendship for him.

On the other hand, it also reflects confidence in one's own strength.

Before the fight began, he cast all the buffs he could on himself, including Divine Blessing, Golden Body Dharma Image, Iron Wall Talisman, Vajra Talisman, and Protective Divine Light.

With the added resilience and health boost from his Giant Spirit transformation, he is now practically a human tank, standing over four meters tall with 2,000 health, 540 armor, and 380 resilience.

Its attack power is even more exaggerated.

Even if an elephant were to crash into him, he wouldn't budge an inch, and his defenses wouldn't even be broken.

With such strength, one could withstand even a few attacks from an immortal.

With the thought of becoming an immortal in his heart, he held nothing back, unleashing a frenzy of various combat techniques. Each strike made the earth tremble, but the True Man of the Mortal World paid no heed.

With just a glance at my desire to become an immortal, he instantly saw through my scheme.

"Hmph, you're just relying on a trace of incense offerings and a tiny bit of divine power. You think the power of incense offerings has made you a god? Don't you know that the people are like water, which can carry a boat but also capsize it?"

After saying that, he raised his hand and pointed, and a ball of golden flame appeared out of thin air above my head. The flame was shaped like a candle flame, surrounded by incense smoke, and radiated golden light, which was very magical.

That is a tangible manifestation of the power of incense offerings received. All deities possess this. As long as the incense offerings continue, they can unleash supernatural powers and spells. The more abundant the incense offerings, the stronger the divine power.

Hongchen suddenly blew a breath of black smoke at the flames.

The flames instantly went out, like a candle flickering in the wind.

My desire to become an immortal caused my colossal spirit body to shrink rapidly, and my golden Dharma body became even more dim and lackluster.

As I unleashed my hammer in my quest to become an immortal, I suddenly realized something was wrong. My perspective suddenly became shorter, the golden light around me dimmed, and my health bar shortened.

Before they could react, the True Man of the Mortal World had already arrived in front of them in an instant.

*Pfft!* A palm strike pierced through the armor and shot through the body.
-
1208 (Fatal Blow)!

His health bar instantly emptied—he died.

When Xiao Jie made up his mind to transform into a dragon and pull Hongchen away, this was the scene he witnessed.

"To become an immortal!" Xiao Jie felt a pang of pain in his heart.

This is my brother who has been adventuring with me since the beginning of the game.

He desperately wanted to rush forward and fight, but he also knew that this was not the time to act impulsively.

The best course of action now is to divert attention from the world and prevent further casualties.

Awakening of the Spirit—The True Dragon Takes Form!
In an instant, his body swelled up, surrounded by rising and swirling clouds, and his perspective also rapidly increased.

As the clouds dispersed, a black and white dragon with a ferocious appearance suddenly appeared in mid-air.

The dragon that Xiao Jie transformed into was called the 'Mysterious Netherworld Abyss Dragon'. Its black and white scales and hooked horns were unique characteristics of demonic dragons.
This true dragon was indeed not in the same league as the flood dragon at all. The rising clouds around it gave people a sense of the unique mystique of a mythical creature.

Xiao Jie wasn't sure if this true dragon could be a match for an immortal. Besides, dragons' skills were almost all area-of-effect damage, which was really unwise to engage in melee combat on the ground, as it was easy to accidentally injure others.

Therefore, Xiao Jie did not hesitate at all and flew directly into the sky, shouting loudly as he flew: "Old man of the mortal world, if you have the ability, then come with me to fight in the sky!"

The True Man of the Mortal World watched the Xuanming Abyss Dragon soar into the clouds, but he was not nervous at all. He sneered and suddenly transformed into a white light that shot into the sky, merging with the sea of ​​clouds.

At this moment, Xiao Jie quickly glanced at the skill interface while climbing.

This was his first time transforming into a true dragon, and he hadn't used any of the skills before. Fortunately, Xiao Jie was a veteran player, and he had studied the effects of the true dragon's skills after refining the dragon ball. So, he only had to glance at it before he could instantly master it.

Wind rises and clouds ripple, thunderclouds descend, thunder roars, heavenly thunder technique, lightning claws...

These are all powerful skills.

Let's look at the health and mana bars again—

Health: 6500!

Mana: 4800!

Wow, that's powerful! It instantly gives me the feeling of transforming into a powerful boss.

Xiao Jie was immediately filled with murderous intent. With such powerful strength, Hongchen, even if you are an immortal, I will still defeat you today.

The moment this thought crossed his mind, he heard Hongchen's wild laughter coming from all directions.

"Hahahahaha, hahahahaha!"

Xiao Jie had already flown thousands of meters into the air. Upon hearing the laughter, he immediately looked around and was taken aback by what he saw.

The previously uneven sea of ​​clouds around them had now transformed into a massive ring of clouds under the control of some invisible force. This ring of clouds rose higher and higher, narrowing as it went, until it completely sealed off the sky at the top, like a giant bowl trapping the dragon that Xiao Jie had transformed into.

Although they were soaring through the sky, it felt as if they were trapped in a cage.

The laughter came from the clouds in all directions.

Not only that, suddenly, the enormous face of the True Man of the Mortal World appeared in the clouds ahead. His features were formed by dark clouds, lightning flashed in his eyes, and hurricanes spewed from his mouth. The scene was incredibly shocking.

"Hahaha, where did you run off to, Hidden Moon with the Wind?"

I am an immortal, as the saying goes—

All things follow my heart, heaven and earth are my body, wind and clouds follow my will, and the sky is my dwelling place!
Even if you flee to the ends of the earth, you will not escape my grasp. Prepare to die!

In an instant, the wind and clouds churned, and two towering giant hands emerged from the thick, dark clouds, reaching down to grab Xiao Jie's head.

The dark cloud transformed into the form of a True Man of the Mortal World, hundreds of feet tall, with a single giant hand measuring over ten feet in diameter, slamming down as if blotting out the sky.

Xiao Jie exclaimed in disbelief, "Holy crap, how the hell am I supposed to fight this? I can't even see the health bar! Is this the power of an immortal?"

He hurriedly circled and flew, constantly dodging the attacks of the giant hand in the dark cloud. However, although the giant hand seemed slow, it was accompanied by a hurricane. Every time it struck, it could cause the air to circulate. Even the true dragon that Xiao Jie had transformed into was pulled by the power of the storm and was unable to dodge it after a few strikes.

As a giant hand reached out again, Xiao Jie hurriedly gathered his strength to cast a spell.

Dragon Thunder Control Technique - Mighty Thunder!
With a dragon's roar, dozens of lightning bolts struck the clouds, booming and crashing! The giant hand formed by the dark clouds was continuously shattered by the impact.

effective!
Xiao Jie was overjoyed and unleashed the Dragon Thunder Control Technique—Heavenly Thunder Spell!

He suddenly pressed the button to charge up, and a green circle appeared on the screen—that was Lei Tian's landing point sight.

Xiao Jie locked his gaze directly onto the giant's face and easily released the mouse. Boom!
A massive lightning bolt, as thick as several arms, pierced through the entire giant cloud. The dazzling lightning pierced through the clouds, illuminating the sky with a clear blue light. Even the entire cloud layer that made up the giant began to dissipate under the bombardment.

The maniacal laughter of Hongchen abruptly ceased.

Was it successful?

Xiao Jie hesitated for a moment, but the answer materialized the next second. Thunder suddenly rolled and lightning flashed in the clouds, the dark clouds stirred, and a storm suddenly arose.

The voice of the True Man of the Mortal World, accompanied by rolling thunder, rang out again, his laughter deafening, as if echoing throughout the heavens and earth.

"Hahahaha, what a skill, what lightning technique! Hidden Moon Follows the Wind, I underestimated you after all. You can actually transform into a true dragon and use this dragon lightning technique."

If I hadn't ascended to immortality, things would have been really difficult. Now that I've mastered thunder magic, come and see my thunder techniques!

In an instant, thunder rumbled in the surrounding clouds, and lightning flashed in all directions, making the entire cloud top look like a lightning cage.

Xiao Jie inwardly cried out that something was wrong.

They wanted to retaliate but couldn't find the enemy.

run!
But no matter how fast a dragon flies, how can it outrun thunder?

In an instant, countless bolts of lightning struck from all directions simultaneously.

Xiao Jie had no chance to dodge and was struck by dozens of lightning bolts in an instant.
-
321-238!-254!-263……

In an instant, his health bar plummeted; his health of over six thousand was reduced to almost nothing in less than three seconds.

If it weren't for the dragon race's naturally high resistance to lightning, they would probably have been instantly killed.

Even if he wasn't dead yet, he was severely injured and fell straight down to the ground.

boom!
The dragon crashed heavily to the ground, but fortunately, thanks to the passive effect of soaring through the clouds, it did not suffer any fall damage.

Without hesitation, Xiao Jie transformed back into human form and hurriedly began consuming pills and activating Qi Healing Technique to recover health—this true dragon didn't have any health-recovering skills.

Just as he had fully recovered his health, he saw dark clouds descending from the sky. Fortunately, the previous attack seemed to have exhausted the lightning in the clouds, and the dark clouds once again transformed into a giant hand, reaching out to grab Xiao Jie.

Just as Xiao Jie was about to dodge, a white shadow flew over.

Sword Control Technique - Ten Thousand Swords Technique!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh, swish swish swish!
The countless sword shadows continuously shredded the giant hand formed from clouds and mist.

Soul-Devouring Flames - A Chaotic Dance of Flowing Fire!
More than a dozen black fire snakes also shot over, burning away the clouds and mist.

A few wisps of white mist separated from the scattered and burned clouds, and once again gathered into the form of the True Man of the Mortal World, like a death god, slowly walking towards Xiao Jie.

Xiao Jie's teammates quickly gathered around and stood side by side with him.

Looking at his teammates, Xiao Jie sighed, "Guys, I'm out of ideas. Even in dragon form, I can't beat him. If you don't want to die, you'd better retreat. I won't blame you."

The chivalrous and peerless man said with a sigh, "No need to say anything more, Brother Suifeng. There are several of us who haven't been saved by you. Even if we die, it's still a way of repaying your kindness."

Deidara added, "That's right. Besides, deserting in the face of battle isn't my style."

Hao Mie, his fighting spirit boiling, said, "I have spent my whole life pursuing battles against powerful enemies. Now that I have encountered such an enemy, how can I miss this opportunity?"

"Stop talking nonsense, Xiao Jie, give the order." Ye Luo's calm voice came from YY. She herself did not appear, probably searching for an opportunity while in stealth mode.

Listening to everyone's words, Xiao Jie was momentarily at a loss for words.

"Three minutes left!" Gu Feiyu suddenly said from behind. The timer started when Hao Mie activated the Ascended Realm of the Mortal World.

Three minutes? With a group of brothers here, it's not like we won't have a chance. Let's go!
"Guys, let's fight side by side—let's get them!"

This time there were no tactics or strategies.

Only the camaraderie of sharing weal and woe and the determination to fight to the death can sustain us.

Perhaps the screen reduced the terror of death brought by the immortal, or perhaps the different operating methods strengthened everyone's determination to win.

In an instant, everyone rushed forward.

Deidara was the first to make a move, and without the slightest hesitation, he unleashed his ultimate attack.

Green wood is used as fuel, but without fire, it burns away!
Flames cleaved the earth, and gilded skies blazed!
The five elements revolve, and fire shines in the central palace!

Soul-Devouring Flames - Blazing Flames Burn the Sky!
Boom! Black flames rose above his head, transforming into a huge black flame several meters in diameter. With a wave of Deidara's hand, the fire cloud roared and transformed into a black fire dragon, rushing towards True Man Hongchen.

The fire dragon didn't go straight; instead, it coiled around and encircled True Man Hongchen, then suddenly contracted, like a fire ring gathering inward. True Man Hongchen was instantly covered by black flames from all sides, and the flames swept towards True Man Hongchen in the center.

The True Man of the Mortal World seemed to be somewhat wary of the Soul-Devouring Flame. This time, however, he did not confront it head-on. Instead, he reached out and created a whirlwind from his palm. He then flung the whirlwind around him.

As soon as the black flames approached him, they were immediately sucked into the whirlwind.

In the blink of an eye, the whirlwind transformed into a black fire tornado.

"I can't possibly use such magic. Here you go!"

With a wave of his hand, the fiery whirlwind swept back towards Deidara. Deidara hurriedly tried to dodge, but the fiery whirlwind was not only extremely fast, but also seemed to have eyes, chasing straight after him and catching up with him in an instant.

"Damn it—" Before Deidara could even utter a curse, he was caught in a whirlwind of flames, his health instantly reduced to zero. A flash of white light appeared on his body as his Substitute Straw Doll activated, but he only lasted for 0.1 seconds longer before his health dropped to zero again, turning into ashes that scattered into the air.

"Damn it, you dare to kill my brother!" Bai Ze roared. He and Deidara had known each other since the time of Luoyang Town. They served together in Longxiang and then joined Xiao Jie together. Their relationship was extremely good.

Upon seeing his brother die in battle, he was instantly enraged.

With a flick of his wrist, the flying sword behind him was suddenly drawn from its sheath.

Sword Control Technique - Myriad Swords Technique - Myriad Swords Return to One!
He suddenly conjured hundreds of sword shadows, and with another wave of his hand, the hundreds of sword shadows converged onto the flying sword, condensing into a seven-foot giant sword.

It shot suddenly toward the True Man of the Mortal World.

Faced with the flying giant sword, Master Hongchen neither dodged nor avoided it, and was directly pierced through by the giant sword.

However, no blood flowed from the wound. The True Man of the Mortal World chuckled, his body trembled, and he transformed into a white light, instantly merging into the flying sword.

"Spiritual possession—flying sword concealment, young brother, you still need to learn more about this sword control technique. Let me teach you how to use it!"

The moment the sound rang out, the flying sword changed direction and flew towards Bai Ze.

This time it was Bai Ze's turn to say "Holy crap!"

Sword control technique! Sword control technique!
Bai Ze desperately tried to control the flying sword, wanting to launch it away from him, but the flying sword was completely unresponsive and instantly arrived in front of him.

Invisibility! Bai Ze tried to struggle, but the flying sword pierced through him with a soft "whoosh"...

Damn! Another one died.

Xiao Jie's eyes were already red.

Sorcery—The Azure Wolf Transforms!
With a roar, it was about to rush forward and fight.

The chivalrous and peerless one suddenly stood in front of him.

"Don't go up there. You can't die. If you die, we're really doomed. As long as you can become an immortal, the dead can be resurrected."

Xiao Jie was taken aback, and couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself. Resurrection... could he really be resurrected?
He had absolutely no idea about this, since there was no precedent for players being resurrected in this game.

Although they always talked about resurrecting their brothers and friends, whether they could actually be resurrected was just a hope.

However, Xiao Jie suddenly thought of the various immortal techniques and powers of the True Man of the Mortal World, and suddenly felt a little hopeful again.

Hongchen is just a novice immortal, yet he possesses such immense power. If I were to truly become an immortal, I might actually be able to retrieve them from the underworld.

That's right, I definitely can't die here today. As long as I can hold out for two or three minutes, I can ascend to immortality and then revive them.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jie, who had originally only thought of fighting to the death, regained his will to survive.
