Terrible news! My deskmate's first chapter is gone!

Sword of Dawn!

Chen Xi knew about this.

Lu Xitong had dealt with counterfeit versions of this thing before and knew a little about it.

The Sword of Dawn has a very special ability called "Dawn".

It symbolizes hope.

The hope here refers to helping the weak, finding a way out of their predicament, and letting them see a ray of light in the darkness.

Its specific judgment is quite interesting. It is unrelated to the user's progress and is a rather abstract "helping the weak".

For example, Chen Xi was previously protected by [Overbearing Aura], so the Soul-Collecting Banner was ineffective against him.

From the perspective of the Sword of Dawn, the wielder's attacks being ineffective is equivalent to weakness, and [Overbearing Aura] is equivalent to darkness, thus triggering the effect of "Dawn" and cutting through the darkness!

However, this severance is not permanent. The "darkness" will slowly swallow up the hope of dawn that it cuts out, but it's not a big problem. As long as the Sword of Dawn determines that it is darkness, it can be severed!

I must stop this [Banner of Ten Thousand Souls]!

Chen Xi thought to himself.

"Holy crap, my skull!"

Yang Wei clutched his head in his hands, gasping in shock.

"Damn it, don't even think about making me become your brother inside the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls!"

With a low growl, the author, enduring immense suction, instantly completed a series of descriptions.

After the rustling sound of paper and pen, a loud "bang" followed, like a thunderclap from nowhere, and a group of five beautiful girls stood in a row in front of the author.

They had different outfits, dressed as JK uniforms, nurse uniforms, cook uniforms, cheerleader uniforms, and maid uniforms.

"Go, uniformed squad! Use the Refort tactic immediately!"

"Yes, Master!"

At the author's command, five beautiful girls launched their own unique offensive.

The five women, each clutching their own collar and skirt, looked at Xiao Wentian with eyes as round as crescent moons, waving their arms and pulling at each other.

"Look for thunder! Look for good fortune!"

"Look for thunder! Look for good fortune!"

The arm movements allowed Lei Fu to take turns appearing, leaving Xiao Wentian stunned. This was the first time he had encountered such a painless and ineffective attack.

Sure enough, the suction force of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner actually weakened a bit under the author's interference!

Just then.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Ten golden arrows pierced through the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, but unfortunately, the red banner was like a mirage and they couldn't hit it at all.

"Damn it! Even my arrows with the air-piercing attribute can't hit it?"

Yan Mingliang frowned.

"How dare you! What are you, daring to corrupt my resolve!"

The failure of the golden arrow brought Xiao Wentian back to his senses. He glanced at the author with a hint of appreciation in his eyes, as if he were looking at a future capable assistant.

This gaze didn't linger for long; Xiao Wentian's attention quickly shifted to Yan Mingliang:

"An interesting arrow, but as I said, my Ten Thousand Soul Banner doesn't even have a physical form."

"Even if you shoot for another ten thousand years, you still won't hit it!"

"Then I'll shoot you!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Yan Mingliang drew back the bowstring and fired ten arrows in a single second, "Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" The second was constantly being repeated.

He unleashed a barrage of fire at Xiao Wentian at a rate of ten arrows per second, covering him from all sides.

Each arrow is entirely golden, but the arrowheads are all different. Presumably, Yan Mingliang enchanted each golden arrow with a different effect to make it more effective at causing damage.

Since there's no need to pay with one's life, and without that cost, Yan Mingliang was perfectly willing to do this for a short period of unlimited firepower.

Even if Xiao Wentian's progress is 100% at Tier III, it's impossible for him to ignore Tier III extraordinary characteristics and take all this damage.

Yan Mingliang was right; Xiao Wentian indeed dared not take it head-on, but he chose to meet it head-on!

Facing the rain of arrows shot by Yan Mingliang, Xiao Wentian stood with his hands behind his back, just standing there.

Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff!

The arrow missed its target.

They were all blocked and damaged by an invisible, transparent wall standing around Xiao Wentian.

Each arrow caused the transparent wall to flicker briefly after it struck, and through the rain of arrows, Yan Mingliang could clearly see a transparent spherical dome.

The cover is like a glass bead, smooth and round, perfectly enveloping Xiao Wentian inside, truly 360 degrees without any blind spots.

"Protective shield..."

Yan Mingliang drew his conclusions through the barrage of arrows.

The attack he just fired had various enchantment effects, including armor penetration, and there were several versions of armor penetration.

But there was nothing he could do; the difference in strength was undeniable, and his armor-piercing technique couldn't penetrate Xiao Wentian's armor!

This is a cruel fact!

Therefore, Xiao Wentian possesses an attack that cannot be interrupted or countered by any means, and also has a 360-degree defense with no blind spots!

It belongs to the type that combines offense and defense!

At first glance, it seems to have no weaknesses!

Just then.

The world underwent a sudden and dramatic change; a white cloud in the sky was instantly blackened, at a speed comparable to you instantly succumbing to demonic corruption.

At the same time, the floor in both Xiao Wentian's and Yang Wei's areas turned red, followed by a black lightning bolt.

Yang Wei, "Judge", [Life or Death Struggle]!

In the brief pause of Yan Mingliang's attack, he wrote the character for "death" on Xiao Wentian, and the power transformed into a black lightning bolt that struck the opponent.

At the same time, the author activated the extraordinary ability of the "Rule Editor" [Stealing the Sky and Changing the Earth] to modify the rules of this place, making it "undefendable"!

This is a strategy of mutual self-destruction between Xiao Wentian and Xiao Wentian.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The black lightning struck Xiao Wentian's head mercilessly. Although it seemed very close, it was actually blocked by the transparent protective shield.

Like Yan Mingliang, Yang Wei and the author's joint attack also failed.

It's not that their extraordinary abilities are useless, but rather that the vast difference in power renders their extraordinary abilities ineffective. Although they are both at the third rank, one is at the ceiling and the other is at the floor!

"Damn it! The suction is getting stronger!"

The bad news about the truth came from beside him. Even though he later learned some more truths from Chen Xi, his improvement was not significant.

His strength was still the weakest among those present, but fortunately he had grasped a lot of truths, so he could barely manage to maneuver using some random abilities.

This is arguably the only drawback of the Myriad Souls Banner; its power generation time is relatively slow.

but......

If this suction force could be increased indefinitely, it wouldn't be a drawback, but an inevitability!

"It's over!"

"We're really going to be brothers inside the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls!"

Yang Wei let out a wail.

"Damn! Going in here doesn't mean we're really dead, which means we can't be reflected in the image!"

The author is like Watson who discovered a blind spot, but this blind spot is somewhat hopeless.

"The reflection only works if Chen Xi is still alive." Yan Mingliang paused for a moment after saying this.

Ok?

What about Chen Xi?
