Chapter 297 Deputy Chief Qian
Exclusive! An exclusive interview with Xiaoyao Yisheng and behind-the-scenes look at the creation of "The Revelation of the Heavenly Way," available only to those who wish to participate.
"You don't believe what I'm saying." Qin Xiaochuan's voice also turned cold.
"Whether I believe you or not depends on whether you are honest enough. I think you've actually been hiding a lot of things." Chief Qian stared intently at him, as if trying to see right through Qin Xiaochuan.
Qin Xiaochuan knew he couldn't persuade the other party, because as he said, there were indeed many things he couldn't reveal to the public. It seemed a battle was inevitable. Qin Xiaochuan composed himself and said coldly, "I've told you everything I can. As for the rest, I won't say anything more."
Chief Qian observed the change in Qin Xiaochuan's demeanor, sneered, and said, "That's a pity. I can only use my own methods to get you to talk."
With that, he shook his hands, tilted his head back, and let out a long howl. His eyes instantly turned blood red, and the original blue phantom expanded, its color becoming even deeper, completely concealing Chief Qian within it, as if Chief Qian had undergone a transformation.
The cyan phantom resembled a werewolf, with sharp fangs and teeth, looking as if it were about to devour anyone at any moment.
As the cyan phantom changed, a faint red mist rose from the air within a ten-meter radius centered on him, making the air thicker and even causing Chief Qian, who was at the very center, to become ethereal and illusory.
"I admit you are indeed very powerful. To be honest, very few people can make me unleash this form." Chief Qian's voice also became somewhat ethereal. "But you are not the only one who possesses domain skills."
When the red blood mist enveloped Qin Xiaochuan, he was horrified. Under the influence of the red blood mist, he could clearly feel the flow of spiritual energy within his body slowing down. This change would greatly weaken the power and casting speed of his skills.
This does indeed have a similar effect to his mental interference, but mental interference requires him to actively maintain it, while Chief Qian's skill effect is more like it lasts once it is released. With this effect, the opponent can completely offset the negative effects brought by mental interference.
Now Qin Xiaochuan truly understood what a domain skill was. It was indeed a bit abnormal. He also realized that the only option left was to face his opponent in a head-on battle.
"This is my domain skill—Blood Domain Wolf Den, take this!" After saying that, Chief Qian launched another attack. This time he was even faster. Even in the mental space, Qin Xiaochuan could only see a flash of green shadow. It seemed that the opponent's domain skill could not only suppress the opponent, but also enhance his own attributes.
Faced with such speed from his opponent, Qin Xiaochuan had no choice but to adopt a defensive stance. The Qilin Armor completely surrounded his body, but before he could make a next move, several silver lights seemed to suddenly burst out in front of him, and in an instant, they all struck his body.
"Bang!" Qin Xiaochuan was knocked away again, but the moment he flew out, he released a blazing flame. He had no choice but to use this skill because the opponent was too fast. He couldn't lock onto the opponent's position and could only use this wide-range skill to slow down the opponent's attack as much as possible.
The moment his body touched the ground, Qin Xiaochuan sprang up, and at the same time, he unleashed a wide-range Thunderstrike Net.
The silver lightning bolts resembled silver snakes, darting back and forth within a five-meter radius of him. Relying on the lightning-type spiritual power released by the level 8 spiritual power within the witch's ring, even Chief Qian had to be distracted to deal with it.
At this point, Qin Xiaochuan finally had a chance to catch his breath. Chief Qian's strength was even more terrifying than he had imagined. The opponent's several attacks had torn apart even the Qilin Armor wherever the silver light passed. You should know that his Qilin Armor had been optimized and strengthened by him, and its defensive power had made a qualitative leap compared to before, but it still could not stop the opponent's attacks.
Qin Xiaochuan disregarded the consumption of spiritual energy and released two area-of-effect skills in succession to slow down the opponent's attack speed, in order to buy himself some time to repair the Qilin Armor. Otherwise, under the opponent's full-speed attack, he would be seriously injured in less than half a minute.
What Qin Xiaochuan didn't know was that his ability to withstand the opponent's attacks for half a minute was entirely due to luck. This was because the Deputy Leader Qian had only just advanced to the 9th level of spiritual power, and had only just mastered the domain skill. He hadn't yet made corresponding adjustments and optimizations to his other skills, so in reality, he was only not much stronger than a peak 8th level spiritual power expert. If the Deputy Leader Qian had been given another month or two, Qin Xiaochuan would have been defeated instantly.
Qin Xiaochuan could only use area-of-effect skills again to wear down the opponent.
After five consecutive attacks, Qin Xiaochuan's Qilin Armor was severely damaged, with at least a third of it losing its protective capabilities. All Qin Xiaochuan could do was protect his vital parts.
"Pfft!" After the sixth attack, a silver light flashed across his shoulder, leaving a deep wound instantly. The intense pain made him grimace. It was the first time he had suffered such a severe injury since learning the Qilin Armor.
"This can't go on any longer." Feeling the blood gushing out of his shoulder like a trickle of water, Qin Xiaochuan felt a threat of death, forcing him to make a change. Otherwise, he wouldn't last three minutes at this rate.
After channeling his spiritual energy to his shoulder to stop the bleeding, Qin Xiaochuan reduced the range of his mental space to within two meters to maximize his perception and weaken the negative effects of the Blood Domain Wolf Den.
Sure enough, after doing this, when Chief Qian appeared within two meters of him, he was instantly spotted. Without any hesitation, Qin Xiaochuan released a mental shockwave, dodged Chief Qian's attack with a swift movement, and then released a Holy Flame Baptism towards the spot where he had been standing.
Since we have chosen a defensive stance, we must defend thoroughly. The best defense is not to focus on the opponent, but to focus on ourselves. As long as we are strong enough, we will remain unmoved no matter how the opponent changes.
After Qin Xiaochuan understood this principle, his actions became more composed. Now he could use precise timing to dodge his opponent's attacks with the Wind Shadow skill, instead of relying on the Qilin Armor's defense to withstand them head-on.
However, the crisis was not over. Wind Shadow Flash could not be used continuously as it had a cooldown period. Chief Qian's attacks were too fast, giving him no chance to breathe. After two consecutive attacks, Qin Xiaochuan once again had to rely on the Qilin Armor for defense.
But this was already a significant improvement for Qin Xiaochuan, because every time he dodged Chief Qian's attack, he would have more time to repair the Qilin Armor. Under these circumstances, he was now confident that he could withstand Chief Qian's attacks for ten minutes.
