108: Not a single drop of his blood was his own!
Air Ban!
An indescribable feeling welled up in his heart. Lin Yue stood in the center of the magic circle, yet he hadn't sustained any damage.
"What's going on? It's not an offensive magic circle?"
Before Lin Yue could think further, the White Tiger closed in again with a fierce offensive.
"Kid, if you've got the guts, let's have a real man's fight. This granddaddy will definitely beat you until you're kneeling and begging for mercy."
Between attacks, the White Tiger didn't forget to taunt him.
Lin Yue rolled his eyes and flatly replied, "I'm a mage. Why would I fight you in close quarters?"
"..."
"Oh right, you're a mage. It seems this granddaddy's request was a bit much."
The White Tiger scratched its head. All this time, it had treated Lin Yue as a worthy opponent because of his high damage and insane health.
It had completely overlooked his class; Lin Yue was indeed a mage, and he hadn't even undergone his class advancement yet.
Wings of Gale!
Since Flash was still on cooldown and the White Tiger was too close, Lin Yue intended to fly away to create distance, only to find that his wings were disabled.
Air Ban!
So that's what it meant.
Only now did Lin Yue realize that the Air Ban Xuanwu mentioned was a Restriction on his flight.
It seemed Xuanwu was a bit smarter than the White Tiger. After watching Lin Yue's battle with the Phoenix and the Azure Dragon, it had prioritized banning his ability to fly.
"However, even if I can't fly, you still can't do anything to me."
Lin Yue's figure flickered; on the ground, he could kite the opponent just as well.
"Stop running, kid!"
Seeing Lin Yue running even faster than itself, the White Tiger couldn't help but roar.
Although it was running and jumping, with its power restricted, it simply couldn't catch up to Lin Yue.
In the Void Realm, the Thunder Cloud Spell continued to condense. As soon as he gained some distance, Lin Yue would quickly cast Spells to counterattack.
Rumble!
The leaping lightning zeroed in on a single target, all its energy pouring onto the White Tiger.
-18,888!
-18,899!
Without Xuanwu's shield, the White Tiger's resistances returned to normal. In just one second, Lin Yue dealt nearly a million points of health damage to it.
Watching its health drop frantically, the White Tiger finally understood how the Azure Dragon felt.
Lin Yue's combat intuition was too powerful.
As long as it pursued him, he could easily dodge while simultaneously using brief openings to counterattack.
But if it didn't pursue and used ranged attacks instead, not only was the Accuracy low, but the opponent could just stand his ground and quickly lifesteal back any lost health.
"We must find a way to restrain his movements, Xuanwu!"
If the White Tiger were alone on the battlefield, it really wouldn't be able to do anything to Lin Yue, but unfortunately, Lin Yue was facing two Divine Beasts.
With just a shout, Xuanwu immediately nodded, understanding the White Tiger's intent.
Imprisonment!
While the White Tiger tried to tie down Lin Yue, a new magic circle began to form.
Lin Yue's body jolted; he was instantly unable to Move.
"Ding! You are affected by the Imprisonment effect. You are imprisoned for five seconds."
Seeing the System prompt, Lin Yue's pupils constricted. Even with the effect of the heart-protecting mirror, he was still imprisoned for five seconds.
This meant that without the protection of the heart-protecting mirror, Xuanwu could have imprisoned Lin Yue for a full twenty seconds.
As expected of a support-type Divine Beast; even with its power restricted, it was still this strong!
"Hehe, kid, you won't be able to run this time."
At the same moment Lin Yue was imprisoned, the White Tiger instantly appeared before him.
Deadly Chain Claws!
A high-frequency attack was very suitable for Lin Yue's current situation.
In five seconds, the White Tiger was confident it could kill Lin Yue.
It had also seen that Lin Yue's health was around 1.6 million, and since it could deal 600,000 damage per second, Lin Yue wouldn't last three seconds.
This way, even if Lin Yue had Rebirth from Ashes, he would be in a certain-death situation once Xuanwu's next Imprisonment was ready.
However, facing the impending violent attack, Lin Yue instead showed a faint smile.
"What a pity!"
Purify!
With a back-jump, Lin Yue broke free from the Imprisonment. The White Tiger's confident attack struck nothing but air.
"I didn't expect you to still have a trump card hidden!"
For a moment, the White Tiger was horrified. Lin Yue had never used the Purify Move before.
Even Xuanwu, hiding in the rear, was stunned. Just how many trump cards did this Person of Destiny have?
Taking advantage of the two Divine Beasts' daze, Lin Yue organized his Spells to bombard the White Tiger again.
The White Tiger was the main damage dealer. As long as it was defeated first, then no matter how hard Xuanwu's shell was, grinding it down would only be a matter of time.
This time, the White Tiger was truly out of options. Even Xuanwu's Imprisonment had been broken; it didn't know what other means could restrain the slippery Lin Yue.
Over ten seconds later.
The White Tiger was forced back by Lin Yue's lightning magic. Xuanwu's support skills also had cooldowns; the more powerful the skill, the longer the cooldown.
Now that Air Ban and Imprisonment had been used, there were temporarily no other ways to restrict Lin Yue's movements.
Although Xuanwu immediately placed another turtle shell on the White Tiger, it could only withstand a few seconds and was of little use.
"If this continues, we're really going to lose."
In just over ten seconds, its health had dropped to thirty-two million. Like the Azure Dragon, it had no additional means of recovery.
Xuanwu did, but even if health was restored, if they couldn't find a weakness in Lin Yue, it would just be a slow death.
Rising Tide of the Jade Sea!
In desperation, Xuanwu cast a recovery skill.
A massive surge of green energy appeared on the White Tiger. In just a few seconds, all of its lost health was replenished, and it continued to regenerate.
It could last for thirty seconds.
It could actually recover five million health per second!
Lin Yue grew excited. He had guessed Xuanwu had healing abilities, but he hadn't expected them to be this powerful.
Even if Lin Yue could now shave off a million health from the White Tiger per second, it was useless. The recovery amount was greater than the output, meaning no damage was effectively dealt.
However, while no damage was dealt, Lin Yue was constantly stacking health, which was exactly what he wanted.
"Heal more! Heal more!"
Seeing the green recovery numbers constantly popping up over the White Tiger's head, Lin Yue wished Xuanwu's recovery skill would last a bit longer.
Unfortunately, the total recovery time was only thirty seconds.
Lin Yue kited while attacking, stacking only three thousand points of health in total.
At this point, he had been fighting the White Tiger and Xuanwu for one minute, having stacked less than six thousand points.
During this period, the White Tiger also took advantage of its health recovery to launch frantic attacks on Lin Yue.
Unfortunately, having learned his lesson once, Lin Yue didn't plan to go toe-to-toe with the White Tiger. He adopted a hit-and-run style, and the White Tiger's attacks on Lin Yue had an Accuracy of less than fifty percent.
This happened to be roughly equal to the health Lin Yue regained through Spell Lifesteal.
Panting, fine beads of sweat appeared on the White Tiger's forehead; it looked somewhat disheveled.
By now, its mindset had undergone a massive change as it looked at Lin Yue's health bar, which remained rock-steady.
It gradually began to feel despair.
It turned out that after fighting for so long, not a single drop of blood lost was Lin Yue's own.
It was all sucked from its own body.
