Stuck in a Chinese novel Chapter 426

[A tremendous change has occurred in the events of the world]

[The status of the main quest VI has been changed to nightmare]

[The time limit has been enhanced]

[Task: Kill Li Fan Sho before he is consumed by the power of the First Golden Dragon]

[Time limit: 30 minutes]

[No reward enhancement has occurred]

[Instead, the user will be able to incorporate the power of the golden dragon into his body, and all risks would be mitigated by the system]

[The quest has begun]

'Fu*k!' Wei Jun yelled inwardly, but there was no time to even curse or think about it. All the trump cards he had been hiding until now were released at once. Wei Jun had stopped holding back.

[Description: Your strong will to remain standing amidst battle is admirable

To facilitate such bravery, a blessing has been granted to you

Now you can enjoy the feats of battle without ever feeling full and falling down]

[Effect: While the skill is active, your health cannot decrease]

[Duration: 30 minutes]

[Description: Not many can suppress their emotions when it goes against their nature

Is it because the skill is faulty or the user is a robot?

The user can be called the oddball in that sense, then

A skill created specifically for the user, as the user has proven to be the first of his kind]

[Cost: 5000 Death Qi]

[Disadvantage: For every second the skill is in use, -1 HP]

Wei Jun instantly felt the effects of the skill 'Berserk'. However, to counteract that effect, the skill 'Indomitable' kept his health the same. But that didn't mean the pain was any less. He could still feel pain every second as his health, which was supposed to decrease by one, didn't decrease, but still delivered him pain.

Wei Jun managed to endure, and now that two of his strongest skills were activated, it was either kill or be killed.

It was safe to say Li Fan Sho was no longer a human. The cry of war he just emitted was packed with power beyond anything else. Wei Jun was basically an immortal for thirty minutes, so death wasn't his worry. What he did worry about was the fact that Li Fan Sho was dying. If he were to die at the hands of the power of the golden dragon, which he obviously couldn't endure, Wei Jun would get nothing.

In thirty minutes, he had to kill a being that was now equivalent to a commander realm cultivator. Wei Jun braced himself as the mana from the war cry struck him, messing with his intestines. Even though his health didn't decrease, the factor of pain was still standing.

Wei Jun moved to the left and delivered a strike to Li Fan Sho, who didn't seem to be in his mind. He let out another shout of mana that Wei Jun had no choice but to endure. He manipulated his Qi to form a barrier before him, but instead of just a plain old shield, he rotated the shield, keeping the middle point still, creating an effect of a drill.

As the mana struck the shield, it did slow the shield but the mana still passed shield by following the rotation current. Wei Jun managed to dodge that attack and just as his shield dissipated, he was before Li Fan Sho who resembled less of a human as time passed by.

His face was contorting, two canines appearing out of his mouth. They weren't that tall yet but they were growing. Also golden scales were appearing on Li Fan Sho's skin that were scalding hot.

As soon as the tiger sword struck Li Fan Sho's golden scales, he was pushed back by the force, his internals once again messed up, but taking the least bit of damage.

[Will of the roaring dragon]

The two forces collided, striking Li Fan Sho's internals as well. Wei Jun used that opportunity to suppress his pain and deliver an attack with the diamond sword. The attack made a slash, but the scales were too tough to break under the slash of the diamond sword.

Wei Jun clicked his tongue inwardly and, without even wasting a second on thinking too deeply about it, he unequipped both swords because penetration wasn't an option given the density of the scales.

There was only one way.

The old-fashioned way.

[Will of the roaring dragon]

Wei Jun covered his fist in the most Death Qi as he could and struck Li Fan Sho on his face, also emitting as much of the Qi he could through the skill he learned from the old sect master.

As the attack succeeded, Li Fan Sho let out a scream of pain that didn't even sound human anymore. His scream was more like that of a dragon, often shown in movies. Wei Jun gritted his teeth as his hand almost melted away under the intense heat from the scales.

Not to mention the power infused in the scream Li Fan Sho had just let out was painful as well.

But, Wei Jun had too many prepared cards. His equipment lessened a lot of pain he was in, not to mention his class that regenerated his body.

The most contribution points went to the skill that didn't let his HP decrease even when his body melted under the intense heat. Wei Jun wasn't worried about death.

He was only worried about finishing it on time.

And his worries were necessary as the heat emitting from Li Fan Sho was unlike anything he had ever felt before. On the contrary, Wei Jun could tell the inner turmoil happening within Li Fan Sho was eating away at him.

What he was fighting right now was a monster who had lost its mind. There was no attack pattern. Only intense heat and dense defense, along with...

Another wave of mana and hot Qi struck Wei Jun' melting his flesh as the upper layer of his skin burned away, his hair and eyebrows included as well as his clothes. His equipment was taking damage as well which Wei Jun could only hope would last as long as he could finish the job.

Gritting his teeth, Wei Jun punched Li Fan Sho again, in the same spot, letting out the [Will of the roaring dragon] combo once again. Without giving the monster time to bear it, Wei Jun struck him again, and then again, and then again.

Screams of pain were emitted around the area as Wei Jun's fists were melted down to his bones. Still, even amidst the greatest of pain, he didn't stop. The infinite cycle of repair and pain was something he had to deal with. Luckily, his pain tolerance was very high now that he was used to such pain for quite a while.

Wei Jun didn't know how much time had passed, but what he did know was that his Qi was slowly burning out, almost to the point that it was reaching its end. He didn't know how many fists he had delivered. He lost count after two hundred or something.

He didn't know how many times his skin had been melted away and then regenerated again. He lost count of that, too.

All he knew was that he was the only one standing at the end while there was a mess of a being at his feet as he took deep breaths. It was like he was in a trance, his mind stunned beyond a certain point, making the events afterwards a bit too hazy for him to remember.

He only stopped when he heard that word. He looked down at the broken scales and the broken jaw of a man whose face was a mess, so much so that it invoked nightmares if someone were to see it.

He looked down at his own hands.

The skin on his hands was slowly regenerating, the pain he felt in the beginning no longer anything to him now. It felt as if he was numb to it now.

He looked at the clock, which showed there were still a few minutes left on the countdown.

"What are you?" Li Fan Sho asked. He couldn't see because his eyes were crushed, but he could hear. Even though his jaw was dislocated, he could still speak.

He knew death was beforehand. He knew he would die beyond this point. But before death, he just wanted to hear a simple explanation.

Why would a man whom he knew nothing about a year ago reduce him to that state, kill thousands, and not feel anything?

"Why did you do all this?" Li Fan Sho finally asked his main question. And Wei Jun...

He only looked at the state Li Fan Sho was in with a cold gaze on his face, as the skin of his face regenerated as well.

And his answer was...
