nGOR Chapter 29: Not Over Yet!
nExclusive Skill: Goddess of Dawn!
nChen Xiaolian forced himself to stand straight. Once the skill was launched, a sphere of light suddenly appeared in the middle of the air right behind him. From amidst the sphere of light, a translucent figure rapidly appeared.
nA silhouette that resembled an ancient Goddess from the West emerged. This Goddess was shrouded in a layer of semi-sheer cloak. Beneath the cloak, what appeared to be an ancient type of armour could be seen.
nIt did not conform to the image that he had in his mind, the image of a royal Highness. This was shockingly an illustrious Martial Goddess.
nThe silhouette boasted a long silver white hair that seemed to be dancing within the sphere of light. Her right hand was holding on to a sword while her left was holding a treasure bottle. The mouth of the bottle was tilted and a radiant light poured out from the mouth of the bottle!
nPrompt, Goddess of Dawn skill launched, skill level LV1. Launch sub-skill: Overwhelming Sunlight Purification. Utilize the host’s personal attributes, combusting and purifying it with rays of light to become an overwhelming sunlight attack. The power of this skill is determined by the level of personal attributes that the host possesses. Once this skill is launched, its effect cannot be reversed and the attribute values purified cannot be restored.
nWhen this prompt appeared before his eyes and was immediately processed by his mind, Chen Xiaolian became dumbfounded.
nCombustion of attributes? Become offensive power? Attributes cannot be restored?
nDamn it!
nThis is the equivalent of the Great Art of Demonic Dissolution! 1
nSeeing Newton coming closer with each step, Chen Xiaolian’s heart gave a “heng”: Go all out!
n“Combust it! Combust it all!”
nChen Xiaolian howled out loudly!
nInstantly, he could feel every ounce of strength in his body being pulled towards a torrential stream, all of it was being extracted uncontrollably out of him!
nUpon the setting interface, his personal attributes, Physique, Endurance, Agility… and so on, the original alphabet at the end begun changing with frenzy, reducing at a rapid rate… finally turning into a ‘?’ mark.
nA powerful sense of weakness washed through his entire body, causing Chen Xiaolian’s body to turn limp. He fell with a “plop”, one knee resting upon the ground…
nAt the same time…
nThe Martial Goddess of Dawn floating in the middle of the air behind him lifted up the treasure bottle, the mouth of the bottle pointing towards Newton.
nIn a flash, the Goddess of Dawn’s treasure bottle inclined and the radiant beam of light from the mouth of the bottle immediately enveloped Newton’s body!
nThis radiant beam, appeared to be an intense sun light!
nThis is… Overwhelming Sunlight attack?
nChen Xiaolian was unable to keep his eyes off this intense light…
nHe could only hear a loud boom as the radiant beam violently sent Newton flying backwards! Newton’s body slammed onto the ground, causing the stone tiles to jump up. He was continuously blasted backwards. Wherever he went, a deep gully would be left in the attack’s wake!
nSavage flames overwhelmed Newton’s body. His hair and clothes were seemingly burnt away by the overwhelming sunlight! Newton roared out manically and produced the green mass of light from his body again, seemingly with the intention of resisting.
nHowever, the powerful ‘Overwhelming Sunlight’ rapidly crushed the flimsy green light, disintegrating and dissolving it…
nUpon Newton’s body, blood was flowing out from his numerous sweat pores, eyes, ears, nose, mouth…
nHis blood was forced out under the intense pressure of the attack. He finally let out a mad roar before his body began to emit successive sounds of “bo bo bo bo”!
nHis body itself had begun to collapse under the Overwhelming Sunlight’s power!
nHis entire left hand, with the fingertips as the starting point, started turning into fine powder. It was followed by his knuckles, palm… wrist…
nNewton began howling again, the skin and flesh on his face and body also began turning into powder! This was especially true for his face; the muscles on his cheeks were turned into powder, revealing the horrifying image of his bare jaw!
nHis face transformed into a grim and terrifying image!
nIt seemed that Newton was still roaring; however, with his tongue gone, the sound made became obscure.
nDespite all that… he still managed to climb up. Then, step by step, he moved towards Chen Xiaolian!
nHe took on the brunt of the Overwhelming Sunlight’s brilliant rays and moved forwards, one step at a time!
nThe flesh and skin upon the surface of Newton’s right hand sloughed off, turning into powder. With the surface flesh and skin removed, the white bones inside could be seen!
nWithin Newton’s pair of eyes, there seemed to be a faint spark of fire that was focused onto Chen Xiaolian!
nThe weakened Chen Xiaolian was unable to lift up even a finger.
nAll he could do was exert himself to push the scimitar down against the ground.
nOn his personal interface…
nPhysique, Endurance, Agility… all the values had become: E.
nThis value is the lowest value possible, one that signified a critical low point.
nAt present, Newton had already reached Chen Xiaolian’s front!
nChen Xiaolian looked at Newton… he knew all too well that he had given his all.
nGoddess of Dawn… Overwhelming Sunlight Purification… this skill could indeed be considered a very Heavenly defying skill.
nCombusting all personal attributes into power, transforming it into a final attack…
nHowever, his biggest flaw was…
nAs a newbie, his comprehensive strength was just too weak.
nThus, this attack born of the combustion of attributes was unable to directly give Newton the KO.
nNewton was no longer capable of speech… Overwhelming Sunlight’s radiance began fading before disappearing… behind Chen Xiaolian, the Goddess of Dawn’s silhouette also gradually disappeared into the light…
n“Is it already over?” Chen Xiaolian muttered bitterly. “Looks like… it still was not enough…”
nHe raised his eyes to look at Newton who had almost turned into a skeleton.
nNewton’s left arm had been disintegrated, however his right arm remained, even though it was only bones.
nUnexpectedly, his arm of bones was still holding onto a scimitar, the Snow Edge!
nChen Xiaolian did not even possess the strength to move his fingers. He could only watch as Newton brandished the Snow Edge, directing it towards his chest, then… pierce in!
n… so cold!
nFeeling the cold blade pierce through his flesh, Chen Xiaolian was momentarily given the false impression that his awareness and life were both flowing away at a rapid rate …
nHe laughed bitterly as he looked at Newton. Slowly, he then closed his eyes.
nOh well… I, did my best.
n…
nBoom!
nAn orange fireball roared forward; a tyrannical fire dragon slammed directly onto Newton’s body!
nChen Xiaolian opened his eyes in surprise. He looked at Newton, then he used all his might to turn his head…
nNot far away to his left was a tiny, trembling figure.
nSoo Soo’s face was filled with tears as she cried; she had both her hands lifted up with great effort… her entire body, from top to bottom was emitting raging orange flames. Atop her head, a flaming phoenix was spiralling about, giving out a resonant cry…
n“Go, go away!”
nNewton’s body flew into the air from the side. When he fell on the ground, he… broke apart!
nTaking on the ‘Overwhelming Sunlight Purification’ attack, his body had already been mostly pulverized. Finally, under this fire dragon’s offensive…
nHis skeletal frame finally collapsed!
nThe bones of his right hands cracked and the Snow Edge dropped to the ground. The sounds of cracking soon spread out to his arms, shoulders, chest…
nA series of “ka ka” sounds rang out and the entire body cracked apart! It turned into a lump of powder that lay upon the ground!
n…
nChen Xiaolian stared blankly.
nThe same was true of Han Bi who was lying on the ground far away.
nSoo Soo watched Newton turn into a lump of powder and then broke out in tears. The orange coloured flames upon her body dispersed. She then cast a glance at Chen Xiaolian, her lips trembling and her entire face seemed to be filled with fear and dread. She lightly called out. “Xiaolian oppa…”
nAfter that, the little girl’s body tilted. With a plop, she fainted.
nChen Xiaolian was momentarily stunned. He then struggled to crawl forward; however, just after around two steps, an intense pain wracked him in his chest area.
nSnow Edge was pierced into his chest and his blood flowed all over the ground.
n“Does this count as… everyone dying together?” Chen Xiaolian helplessly let out a bitter laugh. “Is this the end? This is a really resentful ending…”
nHan Bi laid down there without the strength to move at all. Suddenly, he exerted whatever strength he had left within his body to curse out. “Chen Xiaolian! If there is a next life, do not leave your novels without updating them anymore!”
nThe both of them looked at one another. Within both their gazes, traces of despair could be seen.
n…
nSuddenly, a ball of faint green light that resembled a ghostly flame floated out from Newton’s powdery remains. Then, in the middle of the air, it condensed into a very small ball of light!
n“There are a few more toys left? Heng… the game is not over yet!”
nThis voice resonated clearly into both Chen Xiaolian and Han Bi’s ears.
