77: Chapter 76 [Black Rhino Armor]! Disaster Aura Enhancement!

Accompanying the spear tip, the orb emitting blue-black light thrust fiercely toward [Dagon]'s knee.

Sun Po's idea was very simple: kick the cripple's good leg as hard as he could.

No matter how strong this thing was, as long as its movement was restricted, Sun Po could gain the upper hand.

However, reality was far harsher than his ideal.

Although [Power of the Abyss] was mixed with divine power attribute damage, most of it was still water-attribute damage.

Furthermore, [Power of the Abyss] absorbed 20% of incoming damage, stored it, and dealt it back in a counterattack.

In other words, Sun Po's spear attack carried merely 20% of the damage from [Dagon]'s previous collision,

and since this was not a pure divine power attack, the damage dealt was diluted even further.

Under Sun Po's single thrust, [Dagon]'s knee was only scraped to the point of breaking a bit of skin,

far from destroying that leg, who knew how long it would take.

As for Sun Po's [Moon-Gazing Rhinoceros Horn Slash], it couldn't breach the defense at all.

Looking at this powerful figure that eclipsed the sky, Sun Po suddenly felt a bit of understanding toward Yagyu Ichiro, who had broken down that day.

However, where he excelled over Yagyu Ichiro was that he still possessed a method to breach the defense.

No matter how scarce the divine power in [Power of the Abyss] was, it still contained divine power after all.

Accumulating little by little, it was still possible for Sun Po to kill [Dagon], though he would likely have to suffer quite a bit.

"Forget it, again! [Cold Jade Black Ice Shield]!!"

Gritting his teeth, Sun Po climbed up from the ground, refreshed his [Cold Jade Black Ice Shield], and without another word, charged straight in.

At this moment, the air was filled with dense moisture—whether from [Changyou]'s initial [Calamity Beast Bloodline] or its subsequent [Call Wind and Rain],

including the Wu River within [Tianhe Budu], all provided an extremely abundant supply of moisture.

Sun Po's various attributes, especially his defensive attributes, had also been buffed to a staggering degree by the [Mystic Armor Suppresses the Rough Waves] trait.

In the next second, Sun Po flew out in a parabolic arc once more, and [Power of the Abyss] was fully charged again in one hit.

"Boom!"

As the smoke and dust dispersed, Sun Po spat blood once more.

Although Sun Po appeared severely injured, in truth, he was not.

Under the enhancement of the [Mystic Armor Suppresses the Rough Waves] trait, Sun Po's constitution and self-healing ability had been vastly strengthened, which was why he remained lively and kicking to this point.

At this time, the [Yin Soldiers] and [Water Ghost]s in [Tianhe Budu] were charging forward with all their strength, doing their best to entangle this hundred-meter behemoth.

However, it was akin to an ant trying to shake a giant tree; with a single swipe of Dagon's claw, all the [Yin Soldiers] were swept away instantly.

As it swung its sharp claws, it could even inflict damage on the [Tianhe Budu] domain itself.

When [Dagon]'s sharp claws fell, a massive tear ripped open across the ground of the [Tianhe Budu] Secret Realm.

Fortunately, countless strands of blue-black gas flooded in instantaneously, quickly repairing the tear back to its original state.

This was precisely [Tianhe Budu]'s [Calamity Annihilation] trait: "This domain can expend Calamity Qi to repair itself or enhance the attributes of allied units."

Sun Po suddenly realized:

"Repair itself? Enhance the attributes of allied units?

Don't I count as an allied unit right now?

With this nearly endless Calamity Qi, isn't this the best opportunity for enhancement?"

It was also because he didn't use [Tianhe Budu] often that he had forgotten such an important trait.

"I hope it works."

A glimmer of hope rose in Sun Po's heart as he began trying to use the Calamity Qi in [Tianhe Budu] to strengthen himself for the first time.

This Calamity Qi was so thick in the Duel Secret Realm that it was nearly overflowing, yet it was formless and substance-less, invisible and intangible.

Only after entering Sun Po's [Tianhe Budu] could this ominous blue-black gas be seen, provided the Calamity Qi was drawn into the domain.

Sun Po tried focusing his mind to channel the dissipated Calamity Qi into himself.

The moment the thought crossed his mind, the scattered Calamity Qi within the [Tianhe Budu] domain drifted voluntarily toward the [Black Rhino Armor].

The already dark [Black Rhino Armor] turned even darker in shade,

and upon the surface of its black metal, a blue-black luster swirled and flowed,

making the entire suit of armor appear even more profound and mysterious.

Sun Po tried condensing a [Cold Jade Black Ice Shield] again.

This time, the [Cold Jade Black Ice Shield] looked far more solid, no longer possessing the translucent texture it had at the beginning.

Instead, it appeared increasingly lustrous and almost transparent, resembling jade or crystal.

Sun Po twisted his wrists to test his strength, finding that it had indeed increased significantly.

Looking at the blue-black radiance flowing in his palms,

Sun Po suddenly thought:

"Can the [Black Rhino Armor], now enhanced by Calamity Qi, break through [Dagon]'s defense?"

With that, he summoned the [meteor spear] once more and charged toward [Dagon]:

"[Meteor Raging Waterfall Pierce]!!"

Just as Sun Po expected, when he condensed the Water Element this time, he could distinctly feel many other elements mixed within its power.

Unlike when it was mixed with [Power of the Abyss], what emerged this time was a dark purple orb the size of a basketball!!

The terrifying aura it emitted far surpassed the previous blue and blue-black orbs.

[Dagon] seemed to sense the danger as well; it slammed its claws violently against the ground,

tilted its head up, howled, and used both claws to leap high into the air, crashing down toward Sun Po!!

Yet Sun Po showed no fear whatsoever; what was enhanced right now was not just the [Black Rhino Armor], but also Sun Po wearing the [Black Rhino Armor]!

Sun Po crouched down low, firmly lowering his center of gravity.

"Crack, crack!!"

The rocky ground cracked directly under Sun Po's pressure. His feet sank deep into the earth.

Sweat dripped from his handsome face as the bright yellow lenses of the [Black Rhino Armor] shone brighter and brighter!

"Boom!!"

A massive white shockwave exploded from beneath Sun Po's feet,

and clad in the [Black Rhino Armor], he soared off the ground like a heaven-shaking demon god, leaping toward the behemoth high in the air!

...

Along the way, Li Tiance, who was rushing to the Duel Secret Realm, was burning with anxiety.

If his script collapsed and Sun Po died, his precious second Arrow of Fate would be utterly wasted.

Having cultivated for eighteen years, the Power of Fate he acquired was barely enough to make two such Arrows of Fate; wasting one for nothing was something he could not accept at all.

Yet Li Tiance also knew that Great Old Ones belonged to the rank of divine monsters; even if the aura emitted by this Great Old One wasn't particularly strong,

it was still an unbeatable existence for high school students.

Especially for commoners like Sun Po before entering university,

their ordinary high schools at most taught basic introductory knowledge for Card Makers and how to craft their first card.

They couldn't even choose a Card Maker cultivation technique suitable for themselves, forced to cultivate only the basic techniques provided by the state.

As for the tier rankings of power, that was impossible to be taught at the high school level, including precautions when encountering divine monsters on the battlefield,

let alone an extremely bizarre Great Old One; even he himself currently lacked the confidence to solo a divine monster.

Growing increasingly anxious, the moment he finished dealing with the matter at the main entrance, he immediately brought everyone to the Duel Secret Realm.

When the group stepped into the Duel Secret Realm, they witnessed an unforgettable scene—

...
