"Ding!"
System Notification: You have been attacked by the skill 【Spirit Valley Lord Gatel】's 【Sword Qi Strike Lv-6】, losing 11,052 points of Vitality!
...
"Block, 40%..."
"Uh..." Yi Tianchen was momentarily stunned. This was truly powerful! Blocking 40% of the attack damage still resulted in a loss of 11,052 points of Vitality. If he had taken the full hit, it would have exceeded 16,000 damage—he almost got one-shotted.
In shock, Yi Tianchen glanced over and finally understood.
Before him stood a human... but not quite a normal human. He towered over two meters tall, clad in silver metallic armor. His exposed face was an eerie shade of green, with even his eyes glowing that same unsettling color.
In Spirit Valley Lord Gatel's hand was a massive sword... Yi Tianchen felt utterly speechless. Every time he saw a heavy sword, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. It didn’t matter that this sharp weapon had nearly one-shotted him just moments ago.
"Damn it!"
Cursing under his breath, Yi Tianchen dared not delay any longer. He activated Savage Charge, propelling himself forward in an instant while simultaneously casting Identification Technique---

Main Weak Points: Neck, Eyes
...
Glancing at the specific attributes of Spirit Valley Lord Gatel, Yi Tianchen felt a chill rush to his head, especially when he saw the high probability of ignoring 50% of the target's defense. He was utterly shocked; it seemed that if that last strike had triggered...
"Damn it! This is way too strong!"
Yi Tianchen struggled to find better words to describe it, but the current situation was entirely beyond his control. The overwhelming killing intent of Spirit Valley Lord Gatel had been provoked, and it had clearly turned into a battle where either the monster would die or he would.
"+10000!"
He pulled out a bottle of Seventh-Level Life Potion and downed it. For now, Yi Tianchen decided to adopt a more evasive tactic. Given that he hadn't even grasped the current situation yet, recklessly charging at Spirit Valley Lord Gatel for a fight was clearly not something a smart person should do.
Moreover, the sword energy could inflict ranged damage!
This immediately reminded Yi Tianchen of Captain Mondanqi from Sharp Blade Camp. Although Spirit Valley Lord Gatel was merely a level 65 Purple Gold BOSS, the powerful aura it exuded was something no player could easily handle.
"Roar~"
After an angry roar, Spirit Valley Lord Gatel launched a deadly pursuit. Despite its large size, its speed was not to be underestimated. It leaped suddenly, covering two to three meters in one bound. If Yi Tianchen hadn’t taken a curved route, he would have been struck directly by its sword.
And then there was the eleven-level gap...
Yi Tianchen gritted his teeth; this was a gap that couldn't be ignored! The effect of level suppression, combined with Spirit Valley Lord Gatel's already formidable lethality, clearly resulted in a combination that he could not withstand. To win, he had to avoid its sharp edge.
What’s more, this creature had lost its Spirit Demon Armor Set but still wore a silver set... Yi Tianchen paused at this thought. If it was so powerful without the Spirit Demon Armor Set, what would happen if it were wearing the full set right now? That last strike would have completely obliterated him!
Yes, he had to run and first probe its capabilities...
With this mindset, Yi Tianchen unconsciously quickened his speed and instinctively adjusted his movements based on Spirit Valley Lord Gatel's pursuit pattern. He weaved unpredictably through the bushes, effectively disrupting Gatel's chase.
Speedy and fierce, but it seemed to only pursue in straight lines;
Agility had a significant margin for utilization, especially in terms of maneuverability.
The attack speed was incredibly fast, capable of delivering an attack every 2 to 3 seconds. It was important to note that the Spirit Valley Lord Gatel wielded a heavy weapon, and to achieve such rapid strikes was truly deserving of the term "swift."
Lastly, the lethality was strong—simply overwhelming.
After careful observation, Yi Tianchen could only draw a few conclusions. In terms of speed, he was naturally at a disadvantage. When it came to sheer damage output, it would be more straightforward to self-destruct. The only aspect he could exploit was the relatively lacking agility of Spirit Valley Lord Gatel.
However...
How could he make use of it?
Simply relying on it would not yield results. Ultimately, he needed to leverage the bushes as necessary ambush points.
Meanwhile, the formidable Spirit Valley Lord Gatel continued its relentless pursuit, crashing through everything in its path. The heavy sword left devastation in its wake; the battlefield quickly transformed into a scene of chaos, with some smaller bushes completely flattened.
But specific tactics soon formed in Yi Tianchen's mind...
Without delay, all three passive skills activated. Yi Tianchen gripped a bottle of Seventh-Level Life Potion tightly and suddenly activated Savage Charge. After creating some distance, he abruptly turned around, his Dragon's Roar glowing with golden light as he darted away while Spirit Valley Lord Gatel pursued him.
Hundred Steps Flying Sword Level 2!
Due to their opposing movements, Yi Tianchen's Hundred Steps Flying Sword was exceptionally sharp. Even though Spirit Valley Lord Gatel wore armor, it still tore open a wound. The broad blade of Dragon's Roar pierced through its chest, resulting in an impressive damage number.
“-16352!”
Against a defense of 5000, such damage output was thanks to Dragon's Roar's 30% attack boost for 300 seconds!
Immediately after retracting Dragon's Roar, Yi Tianchen swiftly dashed through a bush and suddenly made a sharp turn. As Spirit Valley Lord Gatel charged straight towards him, he unleashed Unfolding—a dark circle of energy—while a green light flowed down his arm...
As a unique and deadly finishing move, Yi Tianchen had developed the good habit of accumulating the 100 points of Necromantic Power required for the Azure Soul Seal from the very beginning, waiting for the most opportune moment to unleash his most powerful killing skill for maximum damage, such as...
Now!
"Boom—"
Suddenly, a golden rainbow shot out, echoing with the piercing scream of Spirit Valley Lord Gatel...
"Critical Hit, -100483!"
