486: Chapter 486: You asked for it.

Chen You was still standing there.

His moyuan star river robe fluttered in the wind; not even a corner of the hem was torn.

Above his head, a dense cloud of gray numbers was slowly floating up.

[-1!] [-1!] [-1!]

There were also countless [Immune] notifications, occasionally mixed with a few red numbers.

[-43!] [-125!] [-890!]

Oro widened his eyes, his eyeballs nearly bulging out of their sockets.

Chen You lowered his head and glanced at his HP.

HP: 328955/355660.

His HP had dropped, but not by much.

Of the thousands of spells that had just slammed down, only about twenty or thirty had actually managed to break through his spiritual power defense.

Among those few dozen people, most could only deal a few dozen to a hundred points of damage.

Those who could deal over a thousand damage were no more than five.

The total damage added up to just a little over ten thousand.

For a Foundation Establishment late-stage Cultivator with 350,000 HP, this ten thousand-plus damage was negligible.

Chen You reached out to brush the dust off his Daoist robe, then looked up at Oro on the Floating Sanctuary.

"You mages of the Roman God Clan..." Chen You paused, his tone extremely sincere, "Did none of you eat dinner?"

On the coastline, a million casual players erupted into a sky-shaking uproar.

"Holy crap!"

"He's not dead! God You isn't dead!"

"That was the focused fire of thousands of mages! His health bar didn't even move much!"

"Am I blind? What the hell is with those rows of forced HP reduction? This defense is even more absurd than Salos's!"

Lin Miao stood on the periphery of the crowd, letting out a long sigh of relief as her tightly clenched fists finally relaxed.

She knew it; the monster that the team leader and the others had poured national resources into creating couldn't possibly be killed by such conventional means.

On the Floating Sanctuary, the mages of the Roman God Clan fell into collective self-doubt.

An level 80 Fire Mage looked at the fire elements that hadn't yet dissipated from the tip of his staff, his lips trembling: "My Fireburst... only dealt him one point of damage?"

"This is impossible!" Oro roared sharply.

He took a sudden step forward, pointing at Chen You.

"What invincible item did you use? Or did you exploit a system bug? With thousands of people focusing fire, how could you only lose ten thousand HP!"

Oro couldn't accept this reality.

He was the guild leader of the Roman God Clan, an Oracle.

He knew the damage calculation formulas for magic-based classes best.

That last round of volley fire had a theoretical total damage exceeding ten million.

Even if the opponent had extremely high magic resistance, it was impossible to reduce the vast majority of attacks to the forced 1 point of damage.

He was only level 50!

"Invincible item?" Chen You laughed.

He raised his right hand, palm facing upward.

Purple lightning danced at his fingertips.

For a moment, Chen You considered summoning the Second Son of the Heavenly God directly to bury all these people.

Forget it, better to play it safe and save it for when he really needed to save his life.

"Let me correct two of your mistakes." Chen You's voice, wrapped in the sound of thunder, clearly spread across the gulf.

"First, I didn't use any items; this is my own defense."

"Your spells are too low in purity; they can't even pierce through my protective true energy."

"Second, since you wanted to attack, don't blame me for bullying noobs."

The elites gathered here by the Three Great Divine Races were basically none below level 50.

The words "bullying noobs" coming out of Chen You's mouth were too ironic.

As he finished speaking.

The lightning in Chen You's palm suddenly expanded.

Purple electric arcs spread along his arms across his entire body, emitting a harsh crackling sound.

On a giant leaf in the distance, Arrow of the Moon watched this scene and shook her head helplessly.

This Chen You was truly a perverted mage disguised in melee clothing.

Arrow of the Moon gave a cold order in the guild channel, "All Elf God Clan members, stay away from the Roman God Clan."

The Elf God Clan players quickly executed the order, and those near the Roman God Clan retreated in unison.

On the sea surface, Salos wiped the seawater from his face.

He looked at the unscathed Chen You, then at the exasperated Oro, and suddenly burst into laughter.

"Oro! You piece of trash!" Salos's voice was like a booming bell.

"Thousands of people attacking one level 50 player, and you didn't even scratch his skin! The Roman God Clan might as well rename itself the Roman Scraping Spa!"

Oro's face turned livid, and he turned to glare at Salos: "Shut up! What right do you have to talk to me, you idiot who got shot into the sea by an arrow tower!"

"I was hit by true damage!" Salos did not back down, "Do you dare go up and try?!"

Chen You listened to their bickering and shook his head.

The clouds in the sky began to churn, and the horizon, originally dyed red by the setting sun, was quickly replaced by thick black clouds.

Within the clouds, purple lightning darted about like wild dragons.

A terrifying pressure descended from the sky.

The casual players on the coastline felt it difficult to breathe and one after another looked up at the sky.

"This... what kind of skill is this?"

"Manipulating celestial phenomena? Is this a skill a player can cast?"

"Why do I feel like this is even more terrifying than the focused fire of thousands of people just now..."

The hand Oro was holding his staff with began to sweat.

He stared fixedly at the thunderclouds in the sky.

Intuition told him that the magic barrier, condensed from the power of thousands of people, would not be able to withstand the coming attack.

"Arrow of the Moon!" Oro turned and shouted, "Are you still just watching the show!"

"If he clears us out, when the Star Sea King descends later, can your Elf God Clan handle it alone!"

Arrow of the Moon folded her arms across her chest, standing at the edge of the giant leaf.

"Guild Leader Oro, there is no need to worry about my clan." Arrow of the Moon's voice was cold, "You should take care of yourself first."

She felt unprecedentedly clear-headed.

The strength Chen You was displaying now already qualified him to stand on equal footing with the three guild leaders.

Go help Oro? That would just be asking for trouble.

Chen You raised the yuhuang sword above his head.

The tip of the sword pointed directly at the thunderclouds.

"Boom!"

A deafening peal of thunder resounded throughout the gulf.

Purple pillars of lightning, thick as water vats, slammed down ferociously from the churning black clouds.

It wasn't just one, but hundreds, thousands of them.

The sky over Cangxing Bay was illuminated in a ghastly purple.

On the Floating Sanctuary, Oro's eyes were splitting with rage.

"Combined shield! Everyone, defend together!"

Thousands of Roman God Clan mages raised their staves.

Colorful magical radiance shot up into the sky, interweaving above their heads into a translucent dome several meters thick.

"Hold it!" Oro roared, "His mana pool can't possibly support this scale of continuous spellcasting! As long as we survive the first wave..."

Before he could finish speaking.

The first streak of purple heavenly thunder smashed into the shield.

There was no deafening explosion, nor was there a stalemate of equal strength.

There was only a crisp "crack."

The combined magic shield of thousands of mages, the moment it touched the Divine Firmament Heavenly Thunder Orthodox Method, was melted right through, creating a large hole.

The thunder magic of the Cultivation System contained the true meaning of Heavenly Dao destruction.

The elemental magic of the Western fantasy system was, at its underlying logic, an entire dimension inferior.

"Impossible!" Oro's eyes nearly popped out.

The lightning pillars poured down through the hole, precisely striking the mage formation.

"-658900!"

A bright red number floated up from above the head of a level 60 mage.

He didn't even have time to scream before his health bar instantly evaporated.

His entire body turned into a white light, and he was sent directly back to the respawn point, leaving only a pile of dropped equipment and potions on the ground.

This was just the beginning.
