Chapter 173
Lords around the world watched the live stream, speculating about who would be the first to kill the Rain God Avatar.
But five minutes passed, and the expressions on everyone's faces changed from anticipation to bewilderment, and then from bewilderment to astonishment.
These 100 strongest newbie lords in the world, after all this time, haven't even managed to kill a single clone!
Everyone was stunned.
At this moment, within the Rain God Illusory Realm.
Shen Xing waved his right hand, and a huge [Hellfire Fireball] appeared out of thin air, then slammed down hard.
"Boom!!"
A violent explosion resounded all around, and a wave of eerie green fire swept across the platform.
The terrifying hellish heat collided with the Rain God Avatar, stirring up plumes of white smoke.
"Hiss... hiss..."
When the flames subsided, half of the Rain God Avatar's body had been evaporated, leaving only its two feet standing in place.
At that moment, the surrounding lake water surged up and all converged on the platform.
In the blink of an eye, the damaged Rain God Avatar was restored to its original state, and its aura returned to its peak.
"So that's what the [Rain God's Body] talent means?"
"Damn it, as long as there's water, it can regenerate indefinitely. Isn't that incredibly unethical?"
Shen Xing was speechless.
They fought this Rain God Avatar for five minutes, focusing their firepower and killing it at least seven or eight times, even shattering its body.
But every time, just like now, it recovers instantly, as if it were immortal.
Other lords encountered the same situation.
This is no longer a question of whether the damage output is sufficient, but rather how to completely kill the Rain God Avatar.
Even the formidable Lachlan, who blasted Rain God Avatar more than a dozen times, couldn't withstand the opponent's endless resurrection.
This led to the awkward situation where, after 5 minutes, the Rain God Avatar still had 100% health remaining.
The internet was abuzz with discussion on various forums, with comments flying everywhere.
"This is outrageous! This Rain God Avatar is too overpowered; it's practically unkillable."
"At this rate, surely an hour later, the Rain God Avatar won't still have 100% health left, right?"
"That's possible..."
The lords from various countries frowned, their eyes glued to the live stream.
Another minute passed in this stalemate.
At this moment, someone exclaimed.
"Look! Dolores has made the kill!"
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gaze to a corner, to a platform shrouded in blood.
The Rain God Avatar above had already turned into a pool of liquid and dissipated, showing no sign of ever coalescing again.
Her troops, which had been in bat form, reformed into physical beings, transforming into ten handsome men and beautiful women.
"Holy crap, she really killed him! How did she do that?"
"I don't know, I just saw a bunch of bats frantically licking the water on the platform, and then the Rain God Avatar died."
"Holy crap, does that mean the other lords will have to lick the floor like crazy if they want to take down the Rain God Avatar?"
Although she was quite puzzled, Dolores did indeed secure the first kill.
Meanwhile, changes have also appeared on the leaderboard next to it.
[First Place: Dolores Jones, Total Output: 0.1%]
[Second Place: Shen Xing, Total Output: 0%]
[Third place...]
Dolores killed a Rain God Avatar, contributing 0.1% of the total damage output.
In other words, each of the hundred lords would need to defeat ten Rain God Avatar to successfully complete the challenge.
But clearly, this is almost impossible.
Six minutes have passed, and they haven't even taken down one of the clones, let alone ten.
The other lords grew anxious and unleashed even more frantic attacks, nearly blasting the platform beneath their feet apart.
Shen Xing wasn't in a hurry; he continued to control the Fried Chicken, hovering it in mid-air.
He observed the subtle changes in the Rain God Avatar each time it recovered, while carefully analyzing the current situation.
When Dolores made the kill, they were too far away to see how she did it.
But through the repeated disintegration and reassembly of the Rain God Avatar, he had vaguely grasped something.
It seems that there is something key to its infinite Rebirth.
He had no clue what it was or where it was.
"Within the body." A clear, cold voice suddenly rang in my ears.
Shen Xing turned his head and saw that it was Leina who was speaking.
"In vivo?"
"Yes."
The red-haired mage nodded slightly. "When I dispersed the clones a few times before, I saw a transparent water droplet; that should be its core."
"However, this water droplet is very cunning and well-hidden; it always disappears into the water the moment it's exposed, making it very difficult to find."
Upon hearing this, Shen Xing finally understood what he was looking for.
Clearly, the water droplets that Leina mentioned are the core of the Rain God Avatar.
Only by locating it can we completely eliminate it.
Dolores was able to succeed by using a saturation attack to cover the entire platform, which led to her accidentally eliminating the target.
"Hellscream, unleash Blade Tornado Storm."
"The rest of you, follow my orders."
Shen Xing made a decision instantly.
At the lord's command, Hellscream, wielding the Blackwater Greataxe, charged towards the Rain God Avatar, who had been restored to its original state.
"Whoosh—whoosh—!"
He began to spin rapidly, his enormous bat wings whipping up bursts of flame, forming Flame Tornado that covered most of the platform.
The Rain God Avatar remained calm and composed in the face of this wide-range attack.
With a gentle turn of the umbrella ribs, the white, transparent umbrella, like a spiral shield, completely blocked the incoming flames.
"Gorehowl, Xiao Hei, attack the main body from the side," Shen Xing ordered again.
Upon hearing this, the two knights quickly changed positions, flanking the Rain God Avatar from the left and right.
Wielding the Demonic Shadow Sword, Xiao Hei unleashed a series of afterimages, directly slicing more than a dozen cracks into the Umbrella Shield of the Rain God Avatar.
Gorehowl is even more exaggerated.
The dark red patterns on his body lit up, and the flaming greatsword in his hand grew larger in the wind, transforming in the blink of an eye into a door-sized greatsword three or four meters long!
"The Fire of War will consume everything!"
Gorehowl raised his greatsword high, spewing out dark red flames that transformed into a giant fire python over ten meters long, sweeping towards its target.
"Whoosh!"
The giant, dark red flame python completely coiled around the Rain God Avatar, and a series of hissing sounds rang out as the Rain God Avatar rapidly evaporated and shrank.
Shen Xing was satisfied; Gorehowl was indeed incredibly powerful now.
With a hidden class, Epic weapon, and the principle of water and fire countering each other, he alone was enough to defeat this Rain God Avatar.
As the giant fiery python continued to burn, the Rain God Avatar finally couldn't hold on any longer and exploded with a "bang".
Water droplets splashed everywhere, each one almost transparent, making it difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion.
Shen Xing stared intently at the water droplets, as if he had entered a state of slow-motion, trying his best to capture the movement of each droplet.
Just then, one of the water droplets suddenly moved, rapidly absorbing the surrounding water droplets like a vortex, forming a large puddle of water.
With a "plop," it splashed onto the platform, blending in with the surrounding water stains, making it almost invisible unless you looked closely.
Moreover, the puddle of water was silently flowing along the ground, quickly sliding towards the edge of the platform.
"Black Arrow, ground!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a long-awaited Frostbolt shot out.
"Snap!"
A chilling aura erupted instantly, freezing the entire platform and the surrounding lake surface for over ten meters.
It's Ice Explosion Arrow!
"Now!"
"Hellscream, blow it up!"
At Shen Xing's command, Hellscream, who was still spinning, suddenly swung his battle axe!
After charging for a few seconds, the Flame Tornado swept out with Sweep force.
Then, an explosion.
"Boom!!!"
Flames shot into the sky, completely engulfing the entire platform.
When the smoke and dust cleared, wisps of mist rose from the platform, and the water stains on the ground had disappeared, as if they had evaporated completely under the impact.
"Did it succeed?"
Shen Xing was overjoyed, then looked up at the leaderboard above.
I noticed that the total output after my name is still showing as 0%!
He frowned again, feeling somewhat troubled; this Rain God Avatar was far too difficult to kill.
Such a powerful saturation attack failed to destroy it.
At that moment, a long sword came from the side and stabbed at Xiao Hei with lightning speed.
Xiao Hei instinctively tried to raise his longsword to block, but found that the longsword was not aimed at him, but at his shoulder.
