166: Bilis's ability, the teleportation array, comes in handy again!
At this moment, Liu Xiaoran noticed that this talent effect of Viktor's could be triggered a total of 12 times, allowing it to absorb 12 instances of fatal damage for her.
Qin Yun's Beast God Form could only last for 30 seconds at most, which was enough for her to no longer worry about being killed by Qin Yun.
Because without the Illusory Sky Divine Domain, she could isolate space again, thereby avoiding all of Qin Yun's attack damage.
By then, she had absolute confidence that she could repel Qin Yun and find an opportunity to hide.
Anyway, Qin Yun was already trapped in the Dark Shrine and couldn't get out, and he couldn't destroy the shrine either, so there was no need to keep giving Qin Yun chances. She just needed to wait quietly for the sacrificed Soul value to reach its maximum.
Once the Illusory Sky Divine Domain dissipated and the spatial isolation effect around Liu Xiaoran recovered, none of Qin Yun's attacks would be effective anymore, except for Infinite Devour.
Taking advantage of the cooldown period of Qin Yun's Infinite Devour, Liu Xiaoran fought back fiercely, broke through the encirclement, and immediately vanished into the darkness, leaving no trace. However, her voice still echoed throughout the Dark Shrine.
"Qin Yun, that was truly dangerous; I almost fell for your trick. Did you not expect me to have a backup plan? Your Infinite Devour is ineffective against me now, hehehe!" Liu Xiaoran's evil laughter echoed continuously.
"Master, we almost one-shot her. It's hateful that she has such a powerful subordinate!" Little Deer sighed with regret.
"Cloud Brother, the fellow who applied that special damage transfer effect on Liu Xiaoran is very likely the legendary Dark Believer, Viktor!" Bili Si said with a serious expression.
"Bili Si, do you know him?" Qin Yun asked, withdrawing his Battle Intent as he saw Liu Xiaoran dared not engage him in battle again.
"I do! It can be said that when my Qingqiu Fox-Human Race's homeland was completely invaded, Viktor was the primary culprit!"
"He used schemes to force some of our clansmen to join the Alien Beast faction, thereby inciting internal strife, opening the Qingqiu protective barrier, and ultimately leading to our Qingqiu homeland being completely invaded!"
"Later, in order to preserve the spark of our race, the Great Clan Elder at the time had to sign a contract with the rules to become an NPC, and let me, who had the highest talent, become the Shrine Guardian to obtain a place for absolute safe survival!" Bili Si recounted some past events: "Because it was the Alien Beast faction gods led by Viktor who invaded our homeland, I have some understanding of information regarding Viktor."
"Among his active talent effects, one of them is the ability to absorb any fatal damage for a designated target!"
"As far as I know, this kind of talent effect is very rare. It seems useless, but if used well in reality, it can play a huge role."
Hearing this, Qin Yun estimated that it was almost certainly the Dark Faith god, Viktor, who had made the move.
What Qin Yun feared most was not this talent effect of Viktor's, but his resourcefulness!
From Liu Xiaoran's expression just now, it was evident that Liu Xiaoran also did not know about the existence of this effect, which was why she had behaved that way!
This indicated that Viktor had anticipated in advance that Liu Xiaoran's physical Clone would be no match for him, and thus had applied this talent effect beforehand. He hadn't let Liu Xiaoran know, presumably because he was worried that Liu Xiaoran would be exposed prematurely, and thus have it figured out and countered by him.
After pondering for a moment, Qin Yun summoned General Manager Mei back.
"Qin Lord, you suddenly summoned me back; have you encountered any trouble?"
"General Manager Mei, you participated in the Godfall War; do you have any understanding of the Dark Faith god, Viktor?"
"Viktor? Is the Qin Lord asking about the 12th-tier Peak High God, Viktor?"
Qin Yun looked at Bili Si. Bili Si said, "Cloud Brother, the Viktor who invaded our homeland is indeed a 12th-tier Peak High God!"
"General Manager Mei, that's him!"
"This!!!" General Manager Mei's expression suddenly turned grave.
Although he could not reveal many secrets about the Godfall War, he could still speak about the basic information regarding the Dark Faith god, Viktor.
"Qin Lord, as far as I know, Viktor is the god of resourcefulness among the Dark Faith gods. Not only is his own strength powerful, but the key is that he can anticipate the enemy's moves in advance. Therefore, in the Godfall War, he was one of the main commanders of the Alien Beast faction!" General Manager Mei was very wary of this Viktor.
The reason why they had been defeated back then while guarding their territory, besides their hard power being inferior to the Alien Beast faction, was most crucially that this Viktor had seen through many of their deployments, causing them significant losses and ultimately leading to a disastrous defeat!
Knowing that Viktor was not simple, Qin Yun kept this Dark Faith god in mind. If he encountered him in the future, if there was a chance, he had to take him out first!
"General Manager Mei, I am trapped in this Dark Shrine. Do you have any way to help me find the hiding place of this shrine's Master?" Qin Yun briefly explained the situation to General Manager Mei.
However, General Manager Mei was helpless: "Qin Lord, if Bili Si, who is the Shrine Guardian, has no way, then I am even more helpless."
"Master, the situation is a bit dire. The Soul value has reached over 80%. Moreover, look, the Mistress and Sister Qin Xue are about to be unable to hold on and are going to be captured!" Golden Niu spoke up to remind him.
Qin Yun looked at the projection screen that Liu Xiaoran hadn't turned off, and he couldn't help but feel worried.
If the two of them were captured, that would not be good news for him. Given Liu Xiaoran's personality, she would definitely use the two of them to threaten him!
But for a moment, Qin Yun couldn't think of a good solution. He wanted to contact Lei Bao and the others to protect the two women, but he couldn't contact them remotely.
"Cloud Brother, you can use the Teleportation Formation Plate effect to teleport Sister Taner and the others here." Bili Si reminded him.
"Can the Teleportation Formation Plate work? The space here has been isolated by the shrine's Divine-Grade spatial effect." Qin Yun asked.
"Cloud Brother, under normal circumstances it wouldn't work, but don't forget, I am the Shrine Guardian. As long as I am within the shrine, I can exercise some shrine abilities granted by the rules!"
"For example, I can temporarily make this shrine's Divine-Grade spatial effect become level 9. In this way, wouldn't Cloud Brother be able to use the Teleportation Formation Plate?" Bili Si replied.
"This!!!" Qin Yun was pleasantly surprised. He hadn't expected Bili Si to have this ability. Then the crisis for Su Taner and Oldest Sister could be resolved.
At this moment, Su Taner was panting. She had resurrected many times in a row, and her mental energy was significantly depleted. Moreover, more and more Tier 8 Dark Believers were appearing, and she was already overwhelmed!
Looking at the enemies swarming from all directions, Su Taner gritted her teeth and decided to fight to the death!
Even if she truly died here, she would never be captured and thus pose a threat to Little Yun!
The situation on Qin Xue's side was equally grim! Her strength was not very high to begin with, at most that of a Tier 7 Legendary Beast Tamer. Facing a Tier 8 Divine-Grade Dark Believer, she was simply no match.
"It's over! This time it's really over! If I had known it was this dangerous here, I wouldn't have come." Qin Xue also gritted her teeth, deciding that she would rather die than be captured.
Just as the two women were preparing to face death, they were suddenly sucked into a teleportation vortex. The next second, the two women discovered that they had arrived inside the Dark Shrine. It wasn't just them. Yang Qianshi, Han Xiaoli, and Su Wanjin had also been teleported over.
"Ah! Little Brother?" Seeing Qin Yun, Qin Xue immediately wept with joy: "Wuwuwu, Little Brother, Sister thought I was done for."
"Divine Son-in-law, what is going on? Here, your Divine-Grade item, the Teleportation Formation Plate, can still be used?" Su Wanjin was also full of surprise.
"Thanks to Bili Si!" Qin Yun didn't explain too much; the current crisis hadn't been resolved yet.
"..." Seeing Qin Yun teleporting Su Taner and the others over, Liu Xiaoran was extremely furious.
Immediately, she also teleported Viktor and other powerful subordinates back.
"Qin Lord, that fellow is Viktor!!!" General Manager Mei immediately pointed to the physical Clone of Viktor holding the Dark Scepter and said.
