Global Coming: Farming with my sister-in-law in the end times

Chapter 746 Clearing the Arena: An Extraordinary Reward!
Cao Xing maintained high-speed movement while continuously unleashing various high-damage spells.

"Bang—Crack—!"

Frosty white magical energy bombarded the golem repeatedly, producing a teeth-grinding cracking sound!
These two golems endured a barrage of attacks from Cao Xing. A strong chill covered their entire bodies, causing their shells to freeze, their joints to freeze, and their movement speed to drop drastically!
In just 5 seconds, the durability of both golems dropped by more than 30 million!
With Cao Xing's full power, he could completely destroy these two legendary golems within a minute!
But it's clear that King Asura won't give him that chance.

He flipped through the left-handed scripture and chanted ancient incantations.

"Stars fall...annihilation..."

"Om-!"

In an instant, the dark sky above suddenly lit up!
One after another, shooting stars, radiating brilliant light, appeared.

Ten thousand...

20,000...

Thirty thousand...

In the blink of an eye, the number of meteors exceeded 100,000!
The ten thousand stars emitted a destructive aura, illuminating the entire dark space as brightly as day.

The next instant, King Asura pressed down with his staff.

All the meteors fell from the sky at the same time, as if an entire galaxy was tilted down!

Standing under this starry sky, Cao Xing felt a chill run down his spine, and warning signs kept popping into his mind!

"Holy crap... this skill looks even more terrifying than my [Forbidden Spell: Doomsday Ice Star]!"

Cao Xing deeply felt the helplessness his enemies felt when facing his unleashing of 'Doomsday Ice Star'.

There was simply no way to avoid it.

He knew he absolutely could not be in the center of the bombing zone!
Otherwise, with his remaining health of over 100 million, he simply wouldn't be able to withstand such a terrifying attack.

He must escape as soon as possible.

"call--"

With a flap of the wings on his back, he sped forward!

Cao Xing prepared to use his speed advantage to break out of the skill's range!

However, this seemingly vast dark space also has invisible boundaries.

After rushing for three kilometers, Cao Xing was bounced back as if he had hit an invisible wall!

The impact made him see stars!
"Wow... I thought that after entering this area, I would have arrived in another space!"

"In the end, we are still in the arena."

Cao Xing rubbed his aching forehead and cursed.

And with this delay, the meteor shower was about to hit.

Cao Xing gritted his teeth, a ruthless glint in his eyes, "Since I can't dodge it, I'll just activate my Great Demon form and take it head-on!"

"In demon form, I have 300 million health points and two chances to revive!"

"I refuse to believe we can't hold on!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a monstrous demonic aura erupted from his body!

Cao Xing's body expanded rapidly, and a pair of jet-black demon wings unfurled on his back.

An elegant demon has reappeared.

"bring it on!"

In his demon form, Cao Xing roared to the sky and charged into the air, braving the meteor shower!

Then, one after another, these meteors crashed down!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"

Terrifying explosions rang out continuously, smashing huge whirlpools into the black lake surface, causing the entire space to tremble violently!

The astonishing damage numbers were jumping wildly!
【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【-2625627! 】

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

...

As the damage numbers kept appearing, Cao Xing's health was dropping rapidly.

Finally... after five seconds.

The devastating meteor shower has finally stopped.

In mid-air, the great demon that had withstood the bombardment of the meteor shower was covered in wounds.

Cao Xing's body was covered in charred bomb marks, and his demon wings were tattered and black blood was dripping down like rain.

"Huh...huh..."

Cao Xing was panting heavily, feeling excruciating pain all over his body, as if every bone in his body had been crushed!
Then, he quickly glanced at his health bar.

1.56 billion/3.45 billion

...

At that moment, a ferocious smile gradually appeared on Cao Xing's dark lips.

"Very good, it held up."

"I didn't even manage to resurrect once."

This is also thanks to the 200% attribute bonus in demon form.

Not only did it increase his health, but the surge in his physique also significantly increased his armor.

Otherwise, if it were any other legendary character, this wave would have resulted in a loss of at least 300 to 400 million HP.

The next moment, he switched back to his Frost Mage form, his Frost Soul Robe fluttering in the wind!

"Damn it, you enjoyed hitting me, didn't you!"
"It's my turn now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Xing gripped his staff and raised his hand to strike again!
First, I created ten ice walls, which triggered the double effect of [Ice Crystal Fury].

The next moment, he uttered softly: "Extreme Ice... Bloom!"

Centered on the mechanical throne, a six-pointed star array with a diameter of over 200 meters and radiating an astonishing chill appeared.

"Crack—crack—!"

A burst of cold air erupted, freezing the lake surface for hundreds of meters, and the freezing was still spreading rapidly.

Under the 'Extreme Cold Domination', Cao Xing's skill cooldown reduction time has reached -90% (the maximum).

In other words, the cooldown times of all his skills have reached an extremely short range.

Even the forbidden spell that lasted for three hours—Frozen Thousand Miles—had already cooled down!

After releasing [Extreme Ice Bloom], a cold wave swept through, and the surrounding temperature dropped to below -50℃.

But Cao Xing's eyes flashed even colder: "Not enough!"

He dodged the pursuit of the demonic elephant while simultaneously avoiding the Star King's magical bombardment.

The next instant, he took out three divine power fragments from his backpack and clicked to use them!
His divine power value also reached 31 points.

Then, Cao Xing used 1 point of divine power, and a completely different power surged from his body.

Although this power is equally extremely cold, it appears even more mysterious and vast.

He clenched his fist, and dazzling ice crystals condensed in his palm: "Is this... divine power?"

"The power of the gods is indeed beyond imagination."

Before he finished speaking, an icy blue light suddenly shone in his pupils!
"Crack-!"

A terrifying chill erupted from his body!

It instantly froze the surface of the lake hundreds of meters below, as well as the two legendary golems that were in pursuit!
The surrounding temperature reached -73℃!
[Ding! You are now in an extreme environment of -70℃. Your passive skill 'Extreme Cold Domination' has been fully activated!]

...

"call……"

Cao Xing exhaled a breath of cold air and looked down at the frozen lake surface.

And that frozen mechanical throne, and the two legendary golems next to it!

"This is the first time I've used a legendary skill since breaking through to the legendary level!"

"I hope the results won't disappoint me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Xing raised his staff, and the temperature in the entire world suddenly plummeted!

"Eternal Sin...Ice Prison!"

In an instant! The already frigid temperature of -70℃ plummeted again, reaching an astonishing -101℃!
At this absolute low temperature, a chilling crackling sound came from the air, as if even the space itself had been frozen.

Centered on Cao Xing, within a radius of five kilometers, everything seemed to fall into eternal silence!
Before those legendary golems could break free from their slowed state, they were completely sealed by this eternal ice, their surfaces covered with a thick layer of ice.

Even the mechanical throne of King Asura began to emit a piercing metallic, twisting sound.

At the same time, strong gusts of cold wind blew by, stirring up layers of ice, just like a polar blizzard.

"60 seconds..."

"Enjoy this winter wonderland to the fullest!"

The next moment, Cao Xing's staff slammed down, and [Eternal Sin Ice Prison] began to judge all targets within this frigid hell!
"Whoosh-"

The biting cold wind continuously froze the mechanical throne, and huge damage numbers kept popping up.

【-3852355! 】

【-4892353! 】

【-5832492! 】

【-4195234! 】

【-6932443! 】

...

Every second that passes, the health bars above the heads of those golems and the Star King will decrease by a fraction!
They tried to struggle.

However, in absolute low temperatures, their movements became extremely sluggish, as if even their thoughts were frozen.

The golem's energy core malfunctioned, thick frost formed at its joints, and each struggle was accompanied by the cracking sound of metal breaking.

The Star King is in a similar situation; his mechanical throne is completely frozen, making even moving a finger incredibly difficult!

Ten seconds later, the ice layer on the surface of the golem had reached a thickness of half a meter, and the Star King's mechanical throne had completely stopped operating.

While gripping his staff, Cao Xing maintained the release of the [Eternal Sin Ice Prison] skill, causing his mental energy to be consumed rapidly.

As for why they didn't unleash other spells at this point to take down Star King and the Golem in one fell swoop.

That's because the legendary skill 【Eternal Sin Ice Prison】 has a fatal flaw: Cao Xing cannot release it.

During the skill's release, he had to constantly output mental energy to maintain the legendary spell's operation, otherwise it would be interrupted. Cao Xing's face was already pale, and he thought to himself, "If only some of my subjects were here right now."

"For example, Sarah, Isabel, and others."

"A 60-second control period is more than enough time for them to deal massive damage, enough to easily take down the Star King!"

But on second thought, I realized that this idea was not very realistic.

After all, at such terrifyingly low temperatures, apart from beings with physiques like Cao Xing, even legendary-level creatures would be instantly frozen upon entering.

So it's not helpful at all.

Cao Xing shook his head and continued to diligently maintain the operation of the skill.

"Whoosh..."

As the cold wind accumulated, the golem, hundreds of meters tall, turned into two enormous ice sculptures, and the mechanical throne was completely frozen in thick frost.

Every second, their health points are decreasing.

And so, Cao Xing maintained this absolute low temperature of -101℃ for 59 seconds!
During this period, the skill [Eternal Sin Ice Prison] has already dealt nearly 2.8 million damage to King Asura!

The two golems next to it also took 3 million damage!

Finally, the durability of these two behemoths reached its critical point, and Cao Xing's continuous output of icy power also reached its maximum!
60 seconds have passed.

Cao Xing's eyes turned cold, and he pressed down with his staff: "Explode!"

The power of frost, which had been building up for a full minute, was completely unleashed!

"boom--!"

The entire arena was as if a snowstorm had swept through it, with snowflakes flying hundreds of meters into the sky, completely enveloping the area!

The power of the explosion completely surpassed that of the Star King's previous [Star Annihilation]!
【-38523539! 】

【-41824497! 】

【-49283532! 】

...

Following the blizzard, several terrifying damage numbers emerged!

The golems' metallic bodies completely disintegrated under the final burst of the [Eternal Sin Ice Prison].

First, the surface ice layer shattered, then the metal body broke apart like fragile glass, eventually turning into a sky full of ice crystal dust!
The Star King's Mechanical Throne was also blasted open with cracks, and large pieces of frozen, rotting flesh were scattered on the frozen lake surface.

When the noise from the explosion subsided.

The right half of the Star King's body on the throne had completely turned into ice shards, and he lay there like a pile of rotten flesh.

However, although his left mechanical body was covered in cracks, it could still barely hold on, and his mechanical fingers trembled slightly, as if trying to grasp something.

After suffering a severe blow, Star King's eyes seemed to regain a brief moment of clarity.

He looked at Cao Xing, his eyes filled with admiration.

A weak voice escaped his lips: "As expected of someone who could pass the fifth round and unlock the final challenge..."

"You've only just broken through to the legendary level... and you already possess such formidable strength..."

"Perhaps in the near future, you will truly be able to rescue the entire lost royal city from the mist..."

"Or perhaps...the final secret to unravel the mystery..."

"But unfortunately... I won't be able to see it..."

As he said this, another cloud of gray mist appeared in his pupils.

The eerie gray mist surged in his eyes like a living thing, rapidly eroding his sanity.

His mechanical arm suddenly twitched violently, the metal joints emitting a piercing grinding sound, as if it were making a final struggle against some invisible force.

With his last ounce of strength, Star King gripped the scepter tightly with his mechanical fingers.

His voice became broken, yet remained resolute: "Come on... give me... the final blow..."

"Let my last shred of consciousness... be released from this world..."

Cao Xing floated in mid-air, a complex expression flashing in his icy blue eyes.

He nodded slightly, and a chilling light began to emanate from the tip of his staff.

The next moment, ten ice spikes suddenly materialized!

[Ding! You have cast 10 spells. Passive: 'Frostbite' has been triggered!]

With a wave of his staff, the air seemed to freeze.

Three ice pucks, each the size of a head, suddenly appeared in mid-air.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Double the power of the [Ice-Breaking Flying Blade] + ten [Enhanced Ice Spikes] shot out.

"Boom! Boom boom!"

The giant ice ball and ice spikes all slammed into the Star King's decaying body, exploding instantly!

Countless ice crystal fragments scattered and flew everywhere, refracting brilliant light in the air...

【-11853553! 】

【-14256634! 】

【-15327935! 】

【-3579153! 】

【-3682351! 】

【-4189256! 】

...

As massive damage numbers floated up, Star King's body completely disintegrated under the impact.

The rotting flesh turned into shimmering powder and scattered, while the mechanical body turned into countless metal fragments.

In his final moments before he completely vanished, a faint, relieved smile seemed to appear on his lips...

"Ah……"

At the same time, the mechanical throne beneath him shattered and collapsed onto the frozen lake.

The surrounding darkness faded away, and the distorted space gradually returned to calm.

As the last vestiges of darkness dissipated, Cao Xing stood once again in the arena.

The stands were empty, with only the biting wind whipping up snowflakes that kept falling.

A system notification appeared in front of them.

As the last wisp of ice melted, the throne of machinery and flesh collapsed with a deafening roar...

This once-ruling king has finally been freed from a ten-thousand-year curse...

His consciousness faded like a spark in a snowstorm, yet in that fleeting moment of light, he found the dignity of being human...

...

At the same time, from the inner city center of this lost royal city, an ancient tower suddenly burst forth with a beam of light that shot into the sky!

This beam of light was like a sharp sword, piercing through the lost royal city that had been shrouded in mist for ten thousand years.

It even allowed some powerful individuals to see clearly the various ancient buildings hidden beneath the mist.

Among these buildings are areas even more mysterious than the Ancient Arena, causing the powerful figures to widen their eyes in astonishment!
But this sacred sight lasted only a moment.

Suddenly, wisps of gray mist seeped out of the pillar of light. They climbed up the pillar like living creatures, eventually swallowing the light completely.

The gray fog that swallowed up the entire civilization still churns over this land, parasitizing every brick and stone...

This was a funeral for civilization that lasted for ten thousand years...

And you... the brave challenger...

[Who exactly is the gravedigger...?]

Or... the next civilization to be sacrificed?

...

As the string of words gradually faded away, Cao Xing seemed to be deep in thought.

"The next civilization to perish... does that mean the survivors of our Earth?"

What exactly is hidden in this mist?

A whole host of questions popped into my head.

Just then, another system notification appeared, instantly pulling Cao Xing back to reality!

[Ding! Attention, survivor Cao Xing!]

[You have successfully passed the sixth round: the final trial of the Ancient Arena!]

[Unlock Achievement: Seed of Truth]

[Achievement Rewards: Reputation +5, Charisma +10, Divinity +500]

...

[Ding! You have successfully passed the final trial!]

[You will receive one of the following rewards upon completion: "Scepter of the Axis of Annihilation (Legendary)" or "Starfall Codex (Legendary)".]

[Completion Reward 2: Golem - Dragon Slayer, Suppressor, Arbiter (blueprint), choose one.]

[Completion Reward 3: Gladiator King (Title)*1, Legendary Energy Core*1, Black Jar*2.]

...

When this series of reward notifications appeared, Cao Xing was completely stunned.

It took him a moment to come to his senses, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap!"

"What did I see? Legendary equipment, and blueprints for a legendary golem!"

"This is fucking outrageous!"

Cao Xing took several deep breaths to calm his excitement!
While the difficulty of this final trial is outrageous, its rewards are also incredibly terrifying!

Meanwhile, system prompts continued to appear.

Please select your reward.

...

"call……"

Cao Xing took a deep breath.

This reward needs to be carefully chosen.

"First of all... the first reward is a choice between the 'Scepter of the Axis of Annihilation' and the 'Starfall Codex'."
