With the ability to transform, I am a judge.

Chapter 259, Section 265: The Strongest State Under Berserk Mode

Chapter 259: The Strongest State Under Berserk Mode

Faced with countless, incredibly fast, sharp ice spikes, Yang Li slashed with his longsword to shatter the unavoidable ones, while simultaneously dodging the attacks with movements that even gymnasts might not be able to achieve, as if dancing.

The number of ice spikes increased, as if trying to riddle Yang Li with holes. The ice spikes surging from all directions made it increasingly difficult for Yang Li to dodge, and new bloodstains kept appearing on his body.

With a quick glance around, Yang Li swung his knife and sliced ​​off part of a thick icicle, then stomped on it forcefully.

Flying backward close to the ground, Yang Li was certain that Esdeath couldn't pinpoint her location due to the numerous ice spikes, and she took the opportunity to adjust her state.

Yang Li took out a bottle of red potion and drank it, feeling the warmth in his body. He stared intently at the dense blood energy that had been pierced and exploded.

She strode out with long, slender legs, her long blue hair completely cascading down her back, her white military cap long gone, and her clothes disheveled and stained with blood.

Esdeath, looking utterly disheveled, emerged from the blood mist with a grim expression, but judging from her still extremely steady gait, the gift she had just received had not caused any effective damage.

A chilling aura, almost tangible, enveloped Esdeath, and Yang Li felt the pressure on him instantly increase several times over. Esdeath seemed to be serious this time...

The chilling aura swirled around the roughly purple-quality scimitar, and Esdeath effortlessly created countless ice spikes and pillars, leaving the attacked Yang Li in a precarious situation.

Suddenly, her empty left hand clenched. With that forceful grip, all the small ice shards that Yang Li had previously broken floated up and became extremely sharp.

A strangulation-like attack surrounded Yang Li, and even though several blood-red blades appeared behind her, she couldn't completely withstand them with her dual-wielding style.

As for dodging, that's impossible. Esdeath's attack range is hopeless. Unless she immediately uses a burrowing attack, she's bound to get hit.

The black bodysuit was torn apart by razor-sharp shards of ice and snow, and countless tiny wounds oozed blood. Yang Lican's golden pupils were filled with helplessness.

Her basic four-dimensional physical attributes began to improve, and a bluish-green light surrounded Yang Li, accelerating the recovery speed of her injuries. She simultaneously activated two skills: 'War Blessing' and 'Wind and Water Spirit'!

Suddenly, the sky darkened. Yang Li subconsciously looked up and saw a huge ice meteorite appear out of thin air, descending with a terrifying aura.

He swerved to the side, and if that blow landed squarely, Yang Li estimated he'd be smashed into a pancake, dying a gruesome death...

Dust billowed and a deafening roar forced everyone to cover their ears as the ice meteorite slammed into the ground, causing it to cave in. Yang Li, who had managed to escape the area, was a mess, covered in dust, and had almost not made it out of the area.

However, if you observe Esdeath, even when she uses such a move, she still looks calm and collected, and the energy consumption of this move is the same as that of a small move.

Feeling the slight pain all over her body, Yang Li's blood energy erupted once again, and her face turned slightly pale. Using blood energy would consume an equal amount of physical strength.

Seeing the sudden surge of red blood energy, Esdeath's expression hardened slightly, but the next moment she was astonished to find that all the blood energy had been forcibly suppressed back into her body by Yang Li.

At the same time, a violent heartbeat resounded. Esdeath looked at Yang Li, whose eyes were turning crimson gold, and suddenly felt a sense of fear.

With her crimson-gold vertical pupils, which seemed to flow like lava, fixed on Esdeath, Yang Li simultaneously fused the three attributes of killing, madness, and struggle into 'Godslayer Curse Power'. This was the first time she had driven all three attributes at the same time!

When Yang Li first tried this move, his body almost exploded several times, and he suffered various internal injuries.

The development process was indeed difficult, but the results were considerable, and now, combined with blood and qi enhancement...

As her heart was gradually consumed by murderous intent and bloodlust, some blood-red lines appeared on Yang Li's face, giving her an eerie beauty.

……

Note: In berserk mode, one's sanity is completely lost, all attributes (except charm and luck) are increased by 15%, and one completely ignores faction and pursues any living being.

Skill Description: Fall into madness, engage in endless death struggles, and then perish!

……

This is a very powerful double-edged sword skill. When used in conjunction with other abilities, Yang Li's combat power will increase dramatically.

Of course, the combined effect of all skills consumes too much power, so even in full buff, the meager 'Godslayer Curse Power' and stamina of less than 1,000 last for a maximum of 8 seconds!

The blood-red patterns made Yang Li's smile incredibly eerie, and wisps of scarlet aura emanated from her mouth. Just as a warning bell rang in Esdeath's mind, the figure shrouded in blood suddenly vanished.

The speed exceeded the limits of dynamic vision; Esdeath could no longer even see her opponent's figure before a long sword slashed across her arm.

A sharp beam of blood suddenly erupted from her left arm. If Esdeath hadn't instinctively dodged at the last moment, her arm would have been severed.

Even if she hadn't lost it, the bone in this arm was injured, and she couldn't use any strength at all. Esdeath could only barely use it by supporting herself with ice.

Countless ice spikes burst forth from the ground, and white ice pillars were everywhere, while a fierce snowstorm and shattered ice snowflakes floated in the air.

Clutching her scimitar, which had been slashed open, Esdeath struggled to fend off Yang Li's attacks, her ice-based Imperial Arms surprisingly having little effect on the enemy.

Pfft!

Esdeath was stabbed in the abdomen, a blow that nearly damaged her internal organs, causing her blood to run wild and her military uniform to quickly turn red.

Esdeath's expression suddenly turned ferocious. It had been so long since she had experienced such a humiliating battle, and being constantly suppressed made her extremely angry.

"Mahāprabhāṣṭa!"

The icy blue flashed by, and the entire world quickly slowed down and came to a standstill. It wasn't a completely frozen spacetime; Esdeath hadn't fully developed this technique yet.

Looking at the long sword resting on her forehead, cold sweat trickled down Esdeath's cheeks. If she hadn't used this newly developed move, she might have been split open.

"Unfortunately, it's still my victory."

PS: 1. This is the third update today, I'm exhausted... just taking a break.

2. Esdeath certainly won't die in a place like this now. She's my intended final enemy in this world, and she's far from being at her strongest right now.

Chapter 260, Section 266: The Brief Clash Ends

Chapter 260: The Brief Clash Comes to an End

"Unfortunately, it's still my victory."

As the scimitar fell, Yang Li, whose neck had been severed, shattered gracefully—a mere afterimage formed from condensed blood energy! Esdeath's expression changed drastically; having just turned to the side, she caught a glimpse of Yang Li's stunning smile.

Pure and innocent, with a hint of joy at victory, she suddenly felt a tremendous force in her abdomen. Yang Li, whose leg strength had been enhanced by his equipment, nearly kicked her internal organs out.

Seeing Esdeath fly backward, Yang Li, who had temporarily equipped himself with Homura Akemi's card, did not press his advantage to finish her off, because Esdeath was not the only one present.

Her berserk state wasn't a loss of reason; she always remembered that the most important thing now was to escape, not to stay and fight Esdeath to the death. Five seconds had passed since she activated her strongest state…

The significant loss of stamina was taking its toll on Yang Li, and the waves of dizziness and the surging power within her body were clashing against each other, making her situation far from optimistic.

Yang Li's skill 'War Blessing' gives her considerable survivability. If she turns around and rushes towards the soldiers surrounding this transit station, she can recover amazingly in a short time.

Unfortunately, the berserk mode that had never been triggered made Yang Li afraid to try it now, for fear that she would lose herself in the killing.

Moreover, there are several high-level second-tier combatants over there. If they really fought, Yang Li's current state would absolutely crush them, but in just a few seconds, he might not be able to take one down.

Also, although she just kicked Esdeath away, according to the battle data provided by 'Abyss Paradise', the opponent has only lost a maximum of 60% of her health so far.

Despite her human appearance, Esdeath is now undoubtedly more of a Dangerous Species, possessing an unbelievable level of vitality.

However, Yang Li had no right to judge her. Her current appearance was quite frightening, and in terms of appearance, she even looked more like a villain than Esdeath...

After a moment's thought, Yang Li, whose body was only about 1.6 meters tall, raised his head, and the Bloodlust Shadow in his hand surged wildly.

A blood-red blade of energy, three meters long, shot into the sky. Its immense power deterred those surrounding the area from intercepting it, and the spatial barrier was shattered in an instant.

The ability that had been maintained was broken in one fell swoop. The woman next to Kuang Tan turned pale and blood trickled from the corner of her mouth. Kuang Tan quickly stood in front of her.

He was worried that Yang Li might suddenly attack at this moment, after all, Yang Li had just defeated Esdeath and left her life hanging in the balance (in the eyes of the Mad Tank), so Yang Li was definitely a ruthless person with a combat power of level three.

Ignoring the few contractors who were secretly on guard against him, Yang Li's world suddenly turned gray, and he released Time Stop again.

The reason she was able to move within Esdeath's domain before was not only because 'Mokpatomo' was far from mature and could only almost freeze time and space, but also because Yang Li released time stop when the other party used her ability.

With a stomp of his foot, a small pit instantly formed, and countless fragments of stone flew out. Yang Li's figure had already disappeared from the spot.

Fenrir, who was anxiously waiting outside the barrier, rushed over as soon as he saw the barrier shattered. Yang Li did not let his time-stop ability cover Fenrir.

Doing so would naturally consume more resources, since Fenrir itself doesn't have time-related abilities, but it's worthwhile.

The blood-red lines on both sides of his cheeks suddenly faded, and the time stop and berserk state came to an abrupt halt. Yang Li suddenly collapsed to the ground.

Fenrir, now back to its normal size, quickly caught her and ran off into the distance without stopping, its wind-riding power silently descending.

Fenrir accelerated all the way and left with Yang Li. It did not fight against several contractors and Esdeath while protecting Yang Li. It might not even be able to defeat Esdeath alone.

If Yang Li hadn't left Fenrir outside and gone to the transit station alone to investigate, he wouldn't have been left to fight alone...

Just after Yang Li was led away by Fenrir, an astonishing chill suddenly shot into the sky, covering the entire transit station with frost.

Esdeath's men were all warriors who had fought in the north for many years, so they were naturally not afraid of the cold emanating from Esdeath, but none of them dared to look directly at their great general.

Even a fool could imagine how ugly her general's face must have looked, after all, she had just been ruthlessly crushed.

Not to mention that the enemy, who was originally like a turtle in a jar but was actually like a tiger, has long since fled to who knows where. None of them want to take the place of that unknown person and bear Esdeath's wrath.

"This is really interesting, you're very strong. Don't even mention aiming to become a general, even I, a general, almost lost... But I won't lose next time."

Esdeath's lips curled up slightly, her cheeks flushed, making her look like a pervert... a masochistic pervert.

—Excessive sexual activity leads to disaster; castration is the permanent cure—

My consciousness was hazy and I felt numb, as if my body and soul had separated, and all that remained in the world was eternal darkness.

In her battle against Esdeath, she tried out the immature 'Berserk' skill for the first time. Although she managed to knock Esdeath away, she knew she would lose if the fight continued.

Judging from the timeline, her condition could only sustain her berserk state for 7 seconds. Yang Li wasn't confident he could kill Esdeath, who seemed to be on the verge of death, in the remaining two seconds.
