Chapter 649: Weak Point

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Acala, after opening his eyes, was completely different from when his eyes were closed.

The close-eyed Acala only defended and wouldn’t attack. But after opening his eyes, instead of defending, he only focused on attacking!

In the first round against him, all the supreme transcending experts were forced back by his fierce offensive.

They sunk into desperate straits. Their physical strength consumption had become extremely grave. If Lin Yuerou couldn’t find a way to break the deadlock, they could only stake it all, but given their weary condition, they were more than likely to make a mistake.

Pea-sized drops of cold sweat were pouring down Lin Yuerou’s forehead. The supreme transcending experts were trying their hardest, but they seemed to have encountered an insurmountable wall in the fourth layer of the mythical realm, like encountering a bottleneck in cultivation.

Illusion God indifferently smiled and persuaded Lin Yuerou, “Girl, you can still choose to abandon this quest! It is impossible for you to clear this fourth layer of the mythical realm. No one had even been able to reach it, so all of you seeing it can already be considered terrific. You don’t need to struggle! Obediently become my servants in this mythical realm!”

Lin Yuerou was still heavily perspiring, but she couldn’t find any weakness in Acala’s offensive!

Trying to create disorder in its defense was very easy, but breaking his assault was extremely difficult. The defending party was always passive because they kept guessing about what trick would the attacker use next. But the attacker was always the one taking initiative, so it was quite impossible to break the attacker’s rhythm by relying on defense alone.

The supreme transcending level experts had toppled on the ground after exhausting their strength. Looking at the indestructible Acala, their morale had been completely crushed, and they were about to give into despair.

Lin Yuerou raised the sword in her hand and thought to herself, Seems like I will have to break Acala’s offensive by myself!

When Acala had its eyes closed, he appeared to be very heavy. But as soon as he opened his eyes, he became extremely nimble, using tricks that made him basically impossible to defeat.

Lin Yuerou suddenly thought of the cultivation method Li Yunmu had imparted to her. There was a particular path in it which she had been unable to train regardless of how hard she tried. She felt that it was because her cultivation wasn’t sufficient, but it now seemed that she had been stuck at a bottleneck.

The method to breakthrough had been taught to her by Li Yunmu previously, and he said that she should enter dire straits.

Thus, she began to clash with Acala again and again. She was repeatedly forced back while continuously spitting out blood.

The supreme transcending level experts, who had fallen on the ground, saw Lin Yuerou stake her life and were completely astonished.

“City lord! You must be careful!”

Lin Yuerou didn’t hear their advice, since her complete focus was on defending against Acala’s offense. In the end though, she was almost blown away from the bridge by a punch.

If she fell into the magma or ice hell, she would definitely die a horrible death!

“I finally know how to defeat you!”

A fierce light shone in Lin Yuerou’s eyes. At that moment, Acala stopped his attack while the supreme transcending level experts looked at each other in excitement.

She had so quickly discovered the method to break this layer? She was worthy of being their city lord! Their belief in her wasn’t misplaced! If she was with them, then regardless of how difficult the situation was, nothing would be impossible to survive.

Lin Yuerou took a deep breath and sensed the energy continuously bubbling forth from her dantian. She knew that because of the dire straits, she had finally broken through the bottleneck.

The strength of her sword rapidly increased. As long as her attack hit, Acala would completely disappear from the mythical realm.

Who knew whether he had also been turned into a servant of the mythical realm after entering?

Illusion God twirled his beard and looked at the scene in the mythical realm. He felt that Lin Yuerou was only putting up a brave front.

She was unable to continue battling, so what trick could she pull off now?

Illusion God turned his back and said with a slight smile, “Seems like it’s finished!”

Indeed, it was finished, since the sword in Lin Yuerou’s hand had already impaled Acala. The long sword had pierced his waist.

Acala, who had always been like an unbroken diamond, had actually been impaled!

All the supreme transcending level experts were dumbstruck. They heard Acala’s muffled groan, followed by a ‘boom’ sound of an explosion. The entire mythical realm seemed to be on the verge of collapse.

The Illusion God was shell-shocked and couldn’t help but say in astonishment, “She... surprisingly discovered Acala’s weak point?”

Lin Yuerou had noticed long ago that Acala always relied on turning at the waist to produce formidable might. His defense also relied almost entirely upon his waist.

Therefore, when he switched from defense to offense, he overlooked the defense of his waist. This was Acala’s weak point.

Lin Yuerou pulled back the sword and cupped her first in the other hand. “Senior, thanks for letting me win! Now, can you allow us to advance to the fifth layer?”

Illusion God was still silent from his astonishment. After hearing Lin Yuerou’s words, he finally managed to react. He took a deep breath and said, “Truly unexpected. You, girl, can enter the fifth layer! Girl, you will be the first person the enter the fifth layer of my mythical realm.”

“Each layer of this mythical layer contains a different test. The fourth layer was the test of unity and solidarity, right?”

Illusion God burst out laughing heartily. “You have certainly not disappointed me! I hope you can show such performance in the fifth layer as well! But I want to change the condition of our bet for the fifth layer.”

“What do you mean?”

historical

Lin Yuerou couldn’t help but knit her brows. Didn’t this mean that Illusion God didn’t mean to keep his promise? What if he intended to keep them trapped inside the mythical realm instead of allowing them to leave?

“I wish for you to enter final layer alone. Others cannot go with you. If you can clear the fifth layer, I will release you all of you and also give you a treasure. If you are unable to clear the fifth layer of my mythical realm, you will all lose and have to stay inside my mythical realm!”

Lin Yuerou hesitated after hearing the condition. She couldn’t involve others in her gamble.

“I am not willing. You have to release others. If you want to penalize anyone, then punish me alone!”
