Online Game: Start as a Godslayer, Get Stronger by Killing Monsters

Lin Ye cut through the waterfall and entered the cave.

We hadn't even had a chance to see the scenery inside.

"roar--!"

The gibbon had been waiting for a long time. Its four arms swung, creating afterimages, and the wind from its punches made Lin Ye's hair flutter.

This seemingly rough-looking fellow is actually quite clever in combat.

His earlier panicked escape was partly true and partly false.

Especially after escaping back to the waterfall, it did not rush to find cover.

Instead, they stood directly at the very edge of the waterfall, hiding themselves in the surging curtain of water.

then.

Waiting for Lin Ye to catch up, then unleashing a four-arm combo.

Even if we can't kill Lin Ye outright, we can still inflict a lot of damage on him.

Especially at this edge, Lin Ye had nowhere to hide if he wanted to.

Unless he backs off the waterfall and falls into the river below.

However, this gave the gibbon some time to escape and maneuver.

This is an extremely forced choice between two options.

Either take the damage head-on, or fall into the river!

Thinking of this, a hint of human-like smugness appeared in the eyes of the gibbon.

but......

Lin Ye saw through the long-armed ape's imagination in less than half a breath.

"That's quite clever of you, giving me two choices."

But in reality, Lin Ye only had ten points of health.

He couldn't withstand the damage at all; falling into the river, the sharp rocks there would be enough to whittle down his health by ten points.

By a twist of fate, the gibbon had actually cornered Lin Ye into a dead end.

However, this dead end was entirely caused by Lin Ye himself.

Even solving the problem is very easy.

Simply activate [Frost Armor (LV4)] and [Permafrost Armor (MAX)].

With 95% damage reduction and 12 layers of armor, attacks of any level are reduced to harmless pokes.

But the current situation alone is not enough to make him activate it.

Lin Ye immediately raised the Glacier Rift Greatsword, but not towards the Long-Armed Ape, because it was too late to swing it now, and he was destined to take damage.

Therefore, he was facing the water curtain behind him.

The moment the sword touches the water.

Click.

In an instant, everything within a ten-meter radius centered on the sword tip transformed into a thick layer of glacier.

That's right, Lin Ye used the Glacier Rift Greatsword and the Permafrost Crystal Ring to freeze the waterfall's flow.

Even the gibbon was stunned for a moment, but its fist did not hesitate and continued forward.

However, when Lin Ye thrust the glacial crevice greatsword into the water curtain, he had already exerted his strength in advance, using the hilt of the sword as a fulcrum, stepping on the glacier, and climbing upwards.

The frozen footprints of the Wolf King Hunting Boots eliminate any risk of slipping, allowing him to walk on the glacier as if it were flat ground.

Lin Ye continued until he was taller than the four arms of the Long-Armed Ape could attack, at which point he pulled the Glacier Crevice Greatsword out of the water.

The glacier melted away, and Lin Ye stepped onto the last layer of glacier, leaping down behind the gibbon.

Thus, he perfectly evaded the Long-Armed Ape's attack.

Now let's look at the gibbon today.

It was completely bewildered.

From rushing into the waterfall at night, facing a barrage of attacks, to sealing the waterfall with a sword, and finally leaping behind it to avoid the attacks.

Understand the deadlock, and break the deadlock.

The entire process took less than two seconds.

Such outrageous and exaggerated combat intelligence and imagination are nothing more than Lin Ye's instincts.

As the last shard of ice in the waterfall dissipated, Lin Ye raised the glacier fissure greatsword again, aiming it at the broad back of the long-armed ape.

"The sword shatters the universe."

Sword energy flew horizontally, obliterating the Long-Armed Ape into ashes.

Lin Ye raised his hand and, as usual, first extracted the physique into the extraction chamber.

Looking at his stats, he began to calculate the current damage from his sword energy.

"Now, my strength is 9541, my agility is 8233, I have 37 God-Slaying Marks, and the damage of Sword Shattering the Universe is..."

"Forty-two thousand."

Lin Ye nodded, feeling very pleased.

Coming here will not only allow you to reclaim the water source, but also increase the damage you inflict.

Just as he was about to get up and leave.

He glanced back at the scenery inside the cave.

The ground was covered with traces of ritual spells cast by orc shamans.

More importantly, he spotted a dazzling golden monkey hair.

Even though the light in the cave was poor, the monkey hair was golden, forcibly drawing Lin Ye's attention to it.

"More monkey hair?"

Lin Ye immediately raised his greatsword and carefully followed the wispy monkey hair.

He was afraid that the monkey hair falling to the ground would turn into an even more powerful giant ape.

What's even stranger is that although the cave is cool, there is absolutely no wind.

But the monkey hair didn't slowly fall down; instead, it remained at the same height.

It was as if it were guiding Lin Ye.

Lin Ye continued to follow step by step.

Following the monkey hair, he discovered that there was actually a hidden path leading upwards inside the cave, like a staircase, allowing Lin Ye to slowly climb upwards.

After climbing up for a full ten meters, a chain bridge came into view.

"Huh?" Lin Ye was stunned, then muttered to himself, "But when I was observing just now, there was clearly nothing on the ceiling of this cave!"

Before he could even think, the golden monkey hair continued to float forward.

Lin Ye hurriedly followed.

Finally, the monkey hair landed on a boulder covered with moss and vines.

Snapped!

With a crisp sound, the monkey hair disappeared.

It didn't transform into a more powerful ape; it was as if it had completed its mission—to guide Lin Ye to this place.

Sensing something, Lin Ye swung his sword and swept away the vines and moss on the boulder.

Then, three large characters appeared in Lin Ye's eyes—Water Curtain Cave.

"Flower and Fruit Mountain, Water Curtain Cave." Lin Ye turned to look at the waterfall and couldn't help but nod in approval. "Comparing the waterfall's obstruction to a water curtain? What a wonderful name."

After saying that, he stepped forward carefully to examine the strokes on the stone tablet.

"What beautiful handwriting..."

As Lin Ye observed, he couldn't help but step forward and stroke it.

then.

From somewhere, a clear and crisp laugh rang out, carrying the refreshing energy nurtured by the mountains, rocks, grass, and trees.

"Hehehe! You're the one!"
