The comments said I was deeply affectionate, I just added points by using an alternate account.

"Watch out for the acid!" Su Yuehe exclaimed.

An Changqing had just unleashed a powerful attack, his old strength gone and new strength yet to be generated. Faced with the rapidly approaching column of acid, he had no time to dodge.

Just then, a dark figure moved sideways at an astonishing speed and blocked An Changqing's path.

It is an old coffin.

He had anticipated the swarm leader's counterattack when An Changqing launched his attack and had been keeping a close eye on the situation.

Seeing the column of acid coming at him, he had no time to think and reacted instinctively, once again using his body as a shield and the coffin as a wall.

puff.

The dark green column of acid was poured solidly onto the lid of the black iron coffin, and the piercing corrosive sound was ten times stronger than before.

Large plumes of white smoke, carrying a pungent stench, rose into the air, instantly obscuring the view.

"Chen's coffin!" An Changqing and Su Yuehe exclaimed at the same time.

However, when the white smoke dissipated, the black iron coffin still stood there, and there wasn't even a trace of corrosion on the coffin lid.

Only the remaining acid slowly dripped down the smooth coffin walls, scorching small pits into the ground.

Chen Guan stood behind the coffin, his face slightly pale. Besides the deadly acid, the impact was also quite strong, making his arms numb and his chest feel a little tight, but he was not seriously injured.

His [Resilience] talent allowed him to quickly recover. He exhaled a breath of stale air and looked coldly at the swarm leader.

The swarm leader wasn't a mindless monster; it was clearly surprised that its powerful acid had failed to achieve its goal, and it paused for a moment in surprise.

Right now.

"Moon Lotus, disrupt it! Chen Coffin, follow me!"

An Changqing reacted extremely quickly, seizing the opportunity in an instant. His figure flashed out again, his sword light like a rainbow, aiming straight for the relatively vulnerable connection between the swarm leader's compound eyes and mouthparts.

Su Yuehe's flute notes became sharp and rapid again, focusing on disrupting the swarm leader's consciousness, causing its movements to momentarily stiffen and become chaotic.

Chen Guan let out a low roar, no longer passively defending himself. He gripped the handles on the side of the coffin with both hands, his muscles bulging, and swung the heavy black iron coffin up again.

This time, he didn't slap or ram the coffin; instead, he used it as a huge, blunt weapon, sweeping it fiercely across the swarm leader's supporting leg with a whistling sound.

They're targeting the lowest levels!

The swarm leader had just broken free from the sonic interference when a huge black shadow swept towards it from the waist. It instinctively tried to dodge, but An Changqing's sword light was already upon it, forcing it to distract itself and deal with the attack.

boom!

The heavy coffin of black iron landed squarely on the two middle segments on the left side of the swarm leader.

A sickening cracking sound of bones breaking rang out.

The swarm leader let out a painful screech, its massive body staggering as its left supporting leg became visibly deformed. Although its carapace and bones were extremely hard and were not directly broken, its joints were clearly severely damaged.

An Changqing's sword light also took the opportunity to slash past its compound eye, leaving a deep wound that exposed bone, from which dark green fluid gushed out.

The swarm leader, severely wounded, became ferocious and recklessly swung its intact right limb and sharp bone spikes at An Changqing and Chen Guan, who were right next to it. At the same time, acid was brewing in its mouthparts once again.

"Retreat!" An Changqing retreated decisively, parrying the sweeping bone spikes with his sword, sparks flying everywhere.

Chen Guan immediately retrieved his coffin and used it as a shield to protect himself and An Changqing, who was retreating.

With a series of loud thuds, several bone spikes and limbs slammed against the coffin wall, producing a dull thud, but they still couldn't budge it an inch.

The immense force caused Chen Guan to stagger back two steps, his blood churning.

When the swarm leader saw that its attack was ineffective, it became even more ferocious, but its left leg was injured, making it difficult for it to move.

The ordinary rock beetles around them also seemed to fall into chaos after their leader was injured.

"Now, let's finish it off in one go!"

An Changqing's eyes were sharp, and he saw that this was an excellent opportunity. He took a deep breath, and golden light emanated from his body again, but it was much fainter than before. Obviously, the continuous use of his ultimate move had taken a great toll on him.

Chen Guan suppressed the pent-up anger in his chest and gripped the coffin tightly with both hands again. He knew he had to give An Changqing a chance to deliver the final blow.

He suddenly pushed the coffin forward, making a feint to attract the attention of the swarm leader.

The swarm leader fell for the trick and swung his bone spikes at the coffin.

Just as the bone spikes were about to hit the coffin, Chen Guan changed his footing and slid to the side like an eel, while simultaneously using his waist to leverage the momentum of the swarm leader's attack to violently pull and flip the coffin to the side.

This wasn't a direct confrontation, but rather a clever use of the opponent's force against them.

The swarm leader, whose left leg was already unsteady, was pulled by this sudden lateral force, causing his massive body to lose its balance and stagger to the side, revealing his relatively vulnerable abdomen.

An Changqing, who had been poised to strike, flashed a sharp light in his eyes. He moved with his sword, transforming into a golden sword light, like lightning piercing through dark clouds, and aimed straight at the exposed vital points of the insect swarm leader's chest and abdomen.

puff!

The golden sword light pierced into the swarm leader's body without any hindrance, emerging from his back.

The swarm leader's hiss abruptly ceased. Its massive body convulsed violently a few times before crashing to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust. Dark green blood gushed from its wounds, quickly staining the ground beneath it green.

With their leader dead, the remaining rock beetle swarm immediately fell into chaos. Without unified command, they stopped their frenzied attacks; some began to flee in all directions, while others began to tear each other apart.

"Clean up the rest." An Changqing sheathed his longsword, his face somewhat pale, but his eyes still bright. He looked at the coffin and nodded solemnly: "Thank you."

There was a hint of guilt in his eyes.

If Chen Guan hadn't bravely blocked the acid at the crucial moment and risked creating an opportunity, the battle wouldn't have gone so smoothly, and he might have been injured.

Ultimately, it was because he had reservations and was determined to hide the effects of his special abilities.

His special ability is called "Turning the Tide".

One specific manifestation of this is the ability to redirect any attack that does not exceed its own tolerance limit.

For example, with the acid just now, if he used his superpower, he could return 120% of the acid to its source. In the entire school, only Su Yuehe, his childhood sweetheart, knew about his superpower.

It is indeed a very strong superpower, but compared to Chen Guan's selfless courage, he is too narrow-minded.

Chen Guan waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to be so polite.

He leaned against the coffin, breathing slightly heavily. This battle had taken a heavy toll on his stamina, especially the final, skillful maneuver to deflect the force and flip the coffin, which required a high level of body control and explosive power.

Su Yuehe also breathed a sigh of relief and stopped playing. Her face was even paler than before, clearly indicating that the continuous high-intensity support had taken a heavy toll on her.

Although she was only a support, she was only at the second level, and her spiritual power was not as good as An Changqing's.
