Full health is the kill threshold, no matter if you're a god or a demon!

His gaze towards Liu Nian had completely changed; it now held a solemnity and expectation, as if entrusting him with a heavy responsibility: "In that case, the Eternal Trial begins! May the Dragon Lord's soul protect you, whoever comes after!"

The golden scroll entered Liu Nian's body, and Liu Nian immediately saw that the skill description of [Divine Dragon Form] had an additional buff: "(The transformation lasts for an unlimited duration in this battle)".

However, Liu Nian was not happy; instead, his expression was very serious.

The fact that he's given such a buff speaks volumes about how strong the enemy he's facing will be!

At that moment, a powerful pulling force came, leading him deeper into the ruins, where a swirling vortex of pure golden light had appeared out of nowhere—it was a dungeon entrance.

"Step through this gate, and you will enter the trial battlefield. Defeat that obsession!" The old dragon soul's voice echoed in my ears.

Liu Nianlong's body swayed involuntarily, and he rushed into the golden vortex.

The scene before my eyes is constantly changing.

This place resembled the interior of a colossal heart. The surrounding "walls" were dark red to almost black, slowly undulating fleshy walls covered with thick "vessels." In the center was a constantly twisting and shifting shadowy mass composed of an intensely dense, purplish-black demonic energy. Within the shadow, the silhouette of a giant over 10 meters tall could be vaguely seen. Though indistinct, it emanated a terrifying pressure and overwhelming resentment that made the very space tremble.

【LV. ? ? ? Dragon Lord's Obsession - Radiant Shadow (Eternal-level Shadow Demon)】

Those who disturb me... shall be annihilated!!!

A hoarse, overlapping roar, filled with endless pain and rage, directly assaulted Liu Nian's soul.

The battle erupted instantly!

The demonic shadow hadn't even fully materialized; it merely raised a gigantic shadowy hand and clenched it violently towards the space where Liu Nian was! An irresistible, terrifying force, seemingly capable of crushing stars, suddenly descended!

Skill: [Life and Death in Hand] Activated!

Without a second thought, Liu Nian unleashed his boundless rage!

He dared not be careless in their first encounter, even though his life points were now 125 billion!

He was worried that if the opponent's attack was an "instant kill" skill, then all his health points would be wasted!

boom!

The shadowy giant hand clenched, squeezing out with immense force, causing the dragon scales on Liu Nian's body to crackle!

Boom! !

[System Notification: Endless Fury triggered. Your health cannot drop below 1 point for 8.5 seconds!]

really!

Liu Nian gasped, relieved that he hadn't been careless.

This thing really does kill instantly!

This is a rule-based skill; it doesn't care how much health you have!

Liu Nian's current health points are 1.

However, he still has several resurrection items on him, so he can hold on for a while longer.

The opponent's skills were just too strong!

It almost killed Liu Nian instantly, but no specific damage data was generated.

In other words, this kind of attack cannot provide Liu Nian with even the slightest bit of fighting spirit!

Moreover, the [Undying Battle Spirit] he used when he subdued Arachne was perfectly countered by this skill!

Liu Nian wasn't the kind of person who would take a beating without fighting back; without a second thought, he charged forward with unstoppable force!

Boom! !

[System notification: The enemy is immune to magic damage for 180 seconds!]

Bang! !

With a casual strike, the opponent sent Liu Nian's entire dragon body flying like an eel!

[System Notification: Endless Fury triggered. Your health cannot drop below 1 point for 8.5 seconds!]

Another instant-death effect!

Our ancestors from thousands of years ago were truly incredibly powerful!

The demonic shadow conjured from just a wisp of obsession was enough to overwhelm Liu Nian!

And... 180 seconds of magic immunity, that's three minutes?

Liu Nian immediately launched a Shadow Strike, followed by Vast Chest and Lightning Kick!

Crackle crackle boom Duang~

[System notification: The enemy is immune to physical damage for 180 seconds!]

"Damn it!!" Liu Nian cursed inwardly. Physical damage immunity rendered even Heart Steel ineffective!

Moreover, his invincibility effect only lasts for 8.5 seconds. Who can withstand that for three minutes?

Bang! !

The opponent struck again, sending Liu Nian flying once more!

"Damn it!" Liu Nian cursed under his breath, pointing as he flew backward in mid-air.

"Dragon Seal Myriad Frontiers, spray it for me!!" Liu Nian was also helpless. He didn't expect this skill to deal damage, but wanted to see if it could apply a chill effect to the opponent. It would be even better if it could freeze them.

In short, do everything you can to delay for 180 seconds!

"Roar~" A massive ice dragon poked its head out from the spatial rift, but before it could even breathe fire, the demonic figure opposite it suddenly flew into a rage, roaring, "Heaven and Earth Manifestation!!"

The demonic shadow expanded rapidly, transforming into a towering giant in the blink of an eye!

It grabbed the ice dragon's head and yanked it out of the crack. With its other hand, it swiftly cleaved the ice dragon in two.

The ice dragon let out a mournful cry and vanished into countless ice shards.

The opponent actually broke the skill in this way!

"Holy crap... this works?" Liu Nian was dumbfounded.

Damn it, they can even pull out a dragon summoned by a skill and beat it up? Is this even possible?

This was the first time his Dragon Seal of Ten Thousand Boundaries skill had been broken!

The giant, transformed from the Radiant Demon Shadow, slammed down with a palm, its enormous imprint blotting out the sky and leaving Liu Nian with no way to dodge!

Countless magical runes flowed in his palm, seemingly containing the terrifying power to shatter the laws of nature!

At this moment, Liu Nian's endless rage had reached its limit!

Bang! !

A giant hand slammed down!

[System Notification: The [Predetermined Death] effect of the Ring of Paradox has been triggered. You are immune to this fatal damage, and your health is locked at 1 point for 3 seconds.]

This is the first time the ring has been triggered in all the time he's had it!

However, this has side effects. After 3 seconds, his maximum health, current gold and materials in his inventory will all be reduced by 30%! In addition, the cooldown time of all skills will be increased by 200%! The effect will last for 60 seconds.

He had spent most of his gold coins on buying snake lizards, and most of his materials were stored in the floating city's warehouse, so his losses were minimal.

It doesn't matter if your maximum health is reduced by 30% within 60 seconds, because the opponent doesn't care how much health you have; they'll just kill you instantly!

The extended skill cooldown time is really annoying!

But Liu Nian didn't have time to complain. He immediately took out the Shadow Spider Queen's Gift, poured it down, and, regardless of how much battle spirit he had, launched a deliberate punch!

[System notification: The enemy is immune to true damage for 180 seconds!]

"Holy crap!! Immune to real damage too?!"

He was dumbfounded... How could such an outrageous thing exist? How could he possibly fight it!
