Immortal Hero: I Can See the Success Rate - Chapter 69
Chapter 69: The Bat Monster Trial
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
Lin An’s body was already comparable to a peak golden core stage cultivator after he received a boost from the ‘Scripture of No Beginning’ and the morality demon sealing technique.
The black-and-white ashen flames had also faintly surpassed the power of a peak golden core stage cultivator after being enhanced by the profound flame transformation.
Therefore, when Saint Zi Yan had transmitted her spirit energy to Lin An, his strength had increased, and it was now comparable to a nascent soul stage cultivator.
He took a step forward, and his Nine Nether Weeping Blood Sword clashed with the bat monster’s spear.
Abruptly, violent energy flowed out in all directions, making a frenzied din between the man and the monster. Lin An felt as if he was wrestling with a rhinoceros. He sensed that the endless power on the other side seemed determined to destroy him, but he knew that he absolutely couldn’t back down.
Saint Zi Yan was behind Lin An, and she had selflessly given him a sizeable amount of mana to help him withstand the enemy’s attack.
However, she was also fighting against a nascent soul stage monster, and if Lin An backed down, then Saint Zi Yan would definitely be torn to pieces by the enemy’s pincer attack.
“Hurricane Sword strike!”
Lin An didn’t have time to pull out the virtual screen to check the success rate of the strike. He could only quickly use his trump card and hope for the best result.
After Lin An used the Hurricane Sword technique, he discerned that the power that was continuously transmitted through the bat monster’s weapon had suddenly weakened, and he was overjoyed.
He immediately turned his body to the side to deflect the bat monster’s power, and then, he raised his leg and kicked the monster’s ribs.
The bat demon flew into the air, and this signified that Lin An had barely won the first round of battle.
However, Lin An’s kick had the power of a full-strength attack from a peak-stage golden core cultivator. If he had kicked away the body of a golden core cultivator, the cultivator would have been severely injured.
To his surprise, the kick to the bat monster’s body had only caused a minor injury to its ribs. Even its bones hadn’t broken, and Lin An felt that the toughness of the nascent soul stage monster’s body was actually so terrifying.
Saint Zi Yan was also in a bitter battle with the other bat monster.
Although her cultivation level was not necessarily lower than the bat monster, the power she could mobilize in the mystic realm was only at the peak of the golden core stage. Furthermore, she had already transferred a portion of her power to Lin An.
Even so, she still withstood the bat monster’s attack with great difficulty, and her combination of strength and endurance was as expected of the best cultivator in the younger generation!
[There is a 90% chance of triggering ten times the power of the Hurricane Sword technique at the place where Saint Zi Yan is standing.]
Lin An had summoned the success rate system’s virtual screen to check the effectiveness of the Hurricane Sword style near Saint Zi Yan.
He discovered that the technique could trigger the maximum power at that point, so he took advantage of the space he had created after kicking away the bat monster and rushed towards the bat monster that Saint Zi Yan was dealing with.
“Hurricane Sword style!”
While Saint Zi Yan was confronting the bat monster, Lin An slashed out his Nine Nether Weeping Blood Sword.
The bat monster saw that Lin An’s sword strike was unstoppable, so it hurriedly retreated to dodge the strike.
However, it was currently fighting against Saint Zi Yan. Once the bat monster retreated, the energy flow it had emitted to battle against Saint Zi Yan didn’t have any follow-up support, so it instantly collapsed, and Saint Zi Yan’s vast power instantly devoured it.
The wave of support was mainly because of Lin An’s victory in the first wave of battle.
If Lin An had lost the first round against his bat monster opponent, then the support would have been to the advantage of the bat monster, and in the end, Saint Zi Yan would have lost the battle.
Therefore, the spirit energy that Saint Zi Yan had transmitted to Lin An hadn’t been wasted.
After Saint Zi Yan’s vast energy flow overpowered the bat demon, its vitality rapidly decreased. At the same time, its body was also suppressed by Saint Zi Yan’s power, and it could not move.
Lin An really wanted to take the opportunity to kill the bat demon with his Nine Nether Weeping Blood Sword, but unfortunately, the bat demon that he had previously kicked away had already recovered, and it was once again charging towards him, which meant that he no longer had the time to spare to kill the suppressed bat demon.
“Hey!!” Lin An said to Saint Zi Yan quickly, “I know it’s shameless to ask this, but can you leave this dying monster for me to fight and deal with the monster that’s still alive and kicking?”
Saint Zi Yan looked at Lin An with a strange gaze. When a peerless beauty like her fought monsters alongside other men, they would always rush forward and take the lead, afraid that she would hurt a finger.
It was the first time she had fought alongside a cultivator like Lin An who would ask her for help and then switch monsters with her.
Was Lin An taking advantage of her?
However, Saint Zi Yan believed that Lin An had a good reason why he had requested the switch, and without much delay, she withdrew the energy flow that she had used to suppress the bat monster.
She then turned around to deal with Lin An’s original bat monster.
Abruptly, Lin An took advantage of the fact that the bat monster on his side was seriously injured and dying, and before it could react, he hurriedly rushed towards it and used the Nine Nether Weeping Blood Sword in his hand to chop at its head.
When the bat monster saw that the blade was rapidly approaching, it instinctively tried to save itself by using both of its hands to clamp on Lin An’s treasured sword.
“Hurricane Strike technique!”
Lin An used the hurricane strike sword style and triggered three times the damage. Instantly, the Nine Nether Weeping Blood Sword broke through the bat monster’s defense and attacked its fatal point.
After the bat monster died, a bright red life energy was extracted from its body and it poured into the transparent white crystal on the body of the Nine Nether Weeping Blood Sword.
The transparent white crystal was quickly dyed red, and its energy waves suddenly became stronger.
The Nine Nether Weeping Blood Sword broke through the early stage of the foundation establishment stage and upgraded to the middle stage of the foundation establishment stage.
Lin An then used the black-and-white ashen flames to devour the bat monster’s corpse.
The black flames suddenly doubled in size, and Lin An felt as if they had broken increased in intensity. An overwhelming power appeared within the black-and-white ashen flames after Lin An activated them.
However, he was not unfamiliar with the immense energy. This was because he had already experienced the power during his battle with the bat monster.
He, therefore, realized that the black-and-white ashen flames had broken through the peak of the golden core stage and moved into the nascent soul stage!
Suddenly, Lin An’s face lit up with joy. Since he had the ‘Scripture of No Beginnings,’ his power had become much stronger.
In addition to the Nine Nether Weeping Blood Sword, which was at the middle stage of the foundation establishment stage, and the black and white ashen Flames, which were at the nascent soul stage, he no longer needed Saint Zi Yan to transfer her magic power to him. He could now fight against the bat monster with his own power.
Lin An looked toward Saint Zi Yan and noticed that she was already extremely tired after fighting against two nascent soul stage monsters, and she looked as if she was about to be defeated.
“White Flame!”
He immediately used the white flame in the black and white ashen flames to block the bat monster’s spear that was attacking her. Then, he raised his sword and charged towards the bat monster.
The bat monster wanted to raise its spear to block the incoming strike, but Saint Zi Yan also took the opportunity to attack. Her turbulent energy flow bypassed Lin An and attacked the bat monster’s side.
There were attacks from the front and side, and the two waves of attacks basically arrived at the same time.
After weighing the pros and cons, the bat monster only used a small amount of energy flow to deal with Lin An, who looked relatively weak because he was at the initial stage of the golden core stage.
However, it was this miscalculation that caused the bat monster to lose its life.
It did not know that Lin An was already far more dangerous than the exhausted Saint Zi Yan!
