Chapter Seventy-Three: Race Against Time

Those Konodo ghost beasts in this clearing were indeed unable to cause him some damage, but their roars could attract the attention of more ghost beasts on the periphery at the first time, although they would not be able to catch up for a while, but there was not much time left for Li Xiang.

Fortunately, this place is not far from the depths of the lair, and with Li Xiang's strong speed, the rush time can almost be ignored, and just this one sprint has already broken through directly to the core area.

In a cave six or seven meters high, two seeping defense towers stood left and right like door gods, and behind the defense towers, there was a huge crimson crystal wall suspended, which was none other than the Konodor Crystal!

Further back is a tall black tower that has almost blended into the background, the pale blue shimmer of the spire.

As the core of the ghost beast lair, even if most of the ghost beasts were attracted away just now, there were still hundreds of Konodo mad rats and giant mouth worms stationed here, and there were even two or three elite-level ghost beasts, two of which were surrounded by pale red soul rings!

The area of this cave is not as large as the open space outside, but it is probably comparable to most of a football field, and in such a small place, there are hundreds of Konodo ghost beasts piled up, even Li Xiang feels a little difficult to walk.

If the scale of the ghost beast group is still far from threatening Li Xiang, but if he wants to clean it all up, it is by no means possible to do it in a short time, so he can only choose to be tough and strong.

With a sweep of the big sword, he cleared a small area in front of him, Li Xiang jumped violently, and suddenly his body ejected like a bullet, and he went straight through dozens of Konodo ghost beasts in mid-air before crashing to the ground!

Although Li Xiang tried his best to kill a few Konodo mad rats in front of him in an instant when he landed, there were still three or two ghost beasts behind him, left and right, and they attacked him at the first time!

The sharp claws scratched Li Xiang's clothes a few times in an instant, although they reached a C-level physique after strengthening, which greatly improved Li Xiang's muscle and skin toughness, but he was still scratched out of a few blood marks, which brought a faint sting pain while also deducting a small amount of his blood.

In the face of a large number of enemies, when falling into the encirclement for hand-to-hand combat, it is difficult to avoid injury, after all, no matter how fast the speed is, it also has reaction time, and Li Xiang, whose current agility attribute is only D-level, is far from reaching the level of 'bullet time'.

However, those Konodo ghost beasts only had one chance to attack, and after Li Xiang buffered over, they directly got up and spun around, and killed them all at once!

Using this rough and simple method, although Li Xiang would suffer a small injury, his forward speed was not unfast, and he was already close to the two defense towers in just a few jumps!

If he had a choice, Li Xiang would use his gun to knock out their ten 'forts' first, but now was the time to race against time, and there was not enough time for him to shoot slowly, so facing the fireball on the left and the icicle on the right, Li Xiang still rushed straight over regardless of it!

After turning on the 'Wind Walk' skill, Li Xiang not only gained an instantaneous speed change, but also increased his movement speed several times, directly avoiding most of the spell attacks, and suddenly narrowed the distance, using the super damage superimposed by the wind breaking blow to slash at the defense tower on the right with a sword!

The howling wind was like a terrible ghost's life-threatening scream, Li Xiang's sword blade hadn't even touched the tower body, and the Konodor rats that were smelted and tightly wrapped around the structure of the tower body had their skin directly cut apart by the wind blade!

The two-meter-long big sword cut the entire defense tower horizontally at once, and those sputtered out sword qi, and even cut and killed the Konodo rats that were rushing towards Li Xiang around the defense tower!

Pulling out a defense tower, Li Xiang didn't stop, turned around and killed another defense tower next to him, and ate two or three fireballs in a row, so that the chest, sleeves and clothes were burned, Li Xiang roared, and then opened the 'Heart Strike' skill, instantly gained a strength increase, and once again exploded the remaining defense tower with a sword!

After using two skills successively, Li Xiang's output has dropped somewhat, but whether it is for ordinary cannon fodder-level Konodor ghost beasts, or those dead-type ghost beasts that have been strengthened and controlled by the central crystal, his damage is still far beyond the second kill line.

Moreover, the 'Heart Strike', which has been promoted by Li Xiang to the initial level of the Peerless Level, has a cooldown time of only 5 seconds, and after he crosses the Konodo Crystal and rushes to the energy tower further behind, the skill has been cooled down after the three or two swords have been smashed.

Even if the nearby Konodo ghost beasts and dead soldiers had been surging towards him like crazy after seeing Li Xiang destroy several key buildings one after another in a very short period of time, they still couldn't stop him!

The distance between the energy tower and the central crystal is only less than ten meters away, after Li Xiang dismantled the energy tower, he continued to sprint forward, jumped up and completed the turn at the same time, taking the wall of the cave as the focus point, staring at the crimson crystal wall in front of him, and after launching the 'Heart Strike' skill again, he rushed straight away!

Li Xiang held the big sword in his hand, and drew a sharp sword light in mid-air, extremely terrifying damage, and it pierced through the Konodo Crystal with a bang!

From Li Xiang's final offensive to the destruction of a total of four key Konodo buildings, the whole process took less than a minute, with strong speed and damage, there was almost no pause during the period, and a set of combos directly destroyed this ghost beast's lair!

The last amazing blow, while completing the destruction of the crystal, also took it away from the core area where the most ghost beasts were concentrated, and after resisting the attacks of several ghost beasts, the big sword swept the field again, and at this time, Li Xiang, who had already completed the task, could choose to evacuate.

However, the three elite-level ghost beasts who were guarding here, but who didn't have time to stop Li Xiang at all because their speed was crushed, would not let him go so easily, and they had already roared and surrounded him!

The three elite-level ghost beasts are definitely not a weak force, not to mention that two of them also have soul rings, although the level is not high, and the quality is a little broken, but at present, they are definitely terrifying enemies of many human nightmares.

Although the Konodo wolf rat that rushed to the front was killed by Li Xiang with a sword, the two elite-level ghost beasts in the back brazenly launched their skills!
