Silence, a grave-like silence!
The direct clash of two powerful magical techniques did not result in a spectacular scene. On the contrary, the entire area fell into an eerie stillness.
Yi Tianchen curiously opened his eyes and climbed back up the slope, only to see two massive energy spheres composed entirely of pure magical elements unexpectedly merging before the two bosses.
Like a solar eclipse, dark energy gradually seeped into the sacred light, merging peacefully to form a new light blue sphere.
What was happening? Was this a miracle?
Just then, without any warning, the light blue energy sphere suddenly shattered, sending countless ripples through the air as a massive blue beam shot up into the sky!
Under the blue light, the ripples in the air transformed into tumultuous waves like those of a raging sea.
The pure energy shockwave evidently affected Yi Tianchen, who was not far away. Due to the suddenness of the event, he had no time to evade. Surprisingly, however, Yi Tianchen was not obliterated; he didn't even lose a single point of health.
However, a large patch of soil in front of him was instantly thrown into the air. Soon after, Yi Tianchen found himself engulfed in darkness as he was buried alive under the dirt. After much effort, he finally managed to dig himself out, his mouth filled with soil.
"Yuck..." Yi Tianchen spat out mouthfuls of dirt as he got back on his feet, looking disheveled.
"Damn it! I never expected that the legends were true. The clash of light and dark magic techniques causes a qualitative change... cough, cough, damn it!" Luo En trembled all over like a broken leaf falling to the ground. He leaned on his sword as a makeshift cane and gasped for breath.
Clearly, both his magical power and stamina had been drained by this magical technique.
This was the aftereffect of casting a magical technique. Due to its immense power, it required significant effort to execute. Generally speaking, one must possess a high amount of magic points to cast such a technique.
Moreover, the process consumed tremendous physical strength. Therefore, after successfully casting a magical technique, the caster would inevitably fall into varying degrees of weakness, with the duration depending on the scale of the technique used.
At this moment, Hell Swordsman Azure Abyss was also trapped in the negative status following his magical technique's execution and could not move at all. Leaning on his heavy sword, he gazed with helplessness in his deep blue eyes and seemed to mutter to himself: "Darkness and light are born together; without darkness, how can there be light?"
"Hmph! Azure Abyss, the principles of material existence will never change because of your few words. Perhaps I cannot kill you today, but that does not mean I won't be able to in the future." Luo En shuddered and fell to the ground, his eyes filled with rage as he shouted: "Darkness can never triumph over light!"
"Hahaha, really?" Like Luo En, Hell Swordsman Azure Abyss suddenly fell to the ground but quickly composed himself and asked, "Do you think you still have a chance?"
Luo En's expression changed involuntarily. Before he could grasp the meaning behind those words, he heard Hell Swordsman Azure Abyss say, "Kid, you've been here for so long. If you don't make a move now, when will you?"
Yi Tianchen was taken aback.
"Hmph, the Hell Token was forged by my own hands. How could I not sense its presence?" Hell Swordsman Azure Abyss smiled calmly, his eyes filled with confidence.
"Damn, so this guy has known I was here all along."
Yi Tianchen muttered bitterly. However, after witnessing the previous scene, he felt no anger; instead, he was somewhat excited and quickly ran forward.
"The great lineage of Hell Swordsman has gone through thousands of years of succession, and now only I, Azure Abyss, remain. Kid, since you managed to obtain the Hell Token, from today onward, I shall be your mentor!" Hell Swordsman Azure Abyss declared with a loud laugh.
Hearing this, Yi Tianchen couldn't help but feel overjoyed. But looking at the seemingly weak Hell Swordsman Azure Abyss before him, he sighed inwardly. It seemed that if things went just a little differently, his hidden class dream would be completely dashed.
"This... how is that possible!" A voice of disbelief came from behind—Luo En.
"Luo En, I told you, you have no chance!" A fierce glint flashed in Hell Swordsman Azure Abyss's eyes as he turned to Yi Tianchen and said, "Kid, do you want to officially become a great Hell Swordsman?"
Yi Tianchen was startled. "Of course!"
"Good. As a test for you, if you kill him, you can become a true Hell Swordsman." Clearly, when Hell Swordsman Azure Abyss mentioned "him," he was referring to Luo En behind Yi Tianchen.
"Uh..."
Yi Tianchen shivered all over and looked at the Serpent Shadow Sword in his hand. His heart raced wildly as if it were about to burst.
After all, that guy was a high-level swordsman who could use magic combat skills!
Seeing Yi Tianchen in a daze, Hell Swordsman Azure Abyss seemed to understand something and said, "Don't worry. He is currently weakened; you can definitely kill him!"
Yi Tianchen paused for a moment, furrowing his brow before suddenly relaxing it and turning away. Luo En, seeing Yi Tianchen approach step by step, smiled instead of getting angry. However, that smile was filled with a desolate tone, carrying a sense of loss and resignation.
At this moment, Yi Tianchen finally understood why every Ultimate Boss had their reason for existence. The Luo En before him was, in fact, meant to facilitate his rise!
Although Yi Tianchen was extremely reluctant to kill someone who posed no threat, this individual was not just anyone. If he still had the power to fight back at this moment, he would undoubtedly have mercilessly killed Yi Tianchen a hundred times, a thousand times, or even ten thousand times.
One must ask, does such a person deserve sympathy?
“Slash…”
The Shadow Serpent Sword fell, inflicting a forced damage of 1 point. However, due to his weakened state and inability to regenerate health automatically, combined with the battle against Hell Swordsman Azure Abyss, his remaining Vitality was already low.
These coincidences ultimately became the assurance of Yi Tianchen's successful kill today.
“Slash slash slash…”
Yi Tianchen nearly exhausted all his strength as the Shadow Serpent Sword swung rapidly, producing a series of “-1” damage numbers that soared high into the air, forming a line of blood in midair.
Fifteen minutes passed, and Yi Tianchen had long lost count of how many times he had swung the sword; it felt as if his entire arm no longer belonged to him.
Finally, on the N+1 swing of the Shadow Serpent Sword, Luo En's last sliver of Vitality was abruptly depleted. Yi Tianchen knew that the name "Luo En" would be completely erased from the history of Zero Era. In his death record, there would be an extraordinary mark left by Yi Tianchen.
System Notification: You have successfully killed the special NPC-level Boss Light Swordsman Luo En and gained 270 reputation points!
System Notification: Congratulations on successfully slaying the Boss at level 17; you have additionally gained 5 Luck Value!
“Damn! No experience? No equipment?” Yi Tianchen exclaimed in shock, rubbing his eyes vigorously as he stared at the corpse of Light Swordsman Luo En, nearly shouting in disbelief.
Such a formidable Boss didn’t drop any equipment? Yi Tianchen felt a pang of regret. In his expectations, even a little reward would have sufficed!
But what was the outcome?
As a result, Yi Tianchen stood by, speechless and wide-eyed. The arrogant Light Swordsman, Luo En, came and went in a flash, completely carefree!
Unable to suppress a long sigh, Yi Tianchen plopped down onto the ground. He never expected that a perfectly normal job transition journey would encounter such an incredible turn of events. It left him with an indescribable feeling of disbelief and awkwardness.
However, upon reflection, it all made sense. How many people would believe what had happened if they hadn't experienced it themselves?
He took a deep breath, then another, until his mind gradually calmed down. Yi Tianchen shook his head and stood up from the ground.
Because next, he still had many things to do!
Of course, the most important point was that he had not yet completed his official job transition. All his hard work for half a day was for this purpose!
As for everything that had happened, it was entirely beyond his expectations and not at all what he wanted to occur. To borrow a classic quote: it was purely accidental!
Turning around, Yi Tianchen was slightly taken aback as he saw the Hell Swordsman, Azure Abyss, surrounded by clusters of dark halos, looking incredibly mysterious.
