The green-skinned demon, already covered in wounds from arrows, felt a sudden dizziness in its head. Without bothering to look back, it turned around and threw a punch.
With a loud bang, its fist collided with an Ice Shield, shattering it, but the target it aimed to hit remained unscathed.
With a crisp sound, another blow landed on it, as Yani had already descended from her jump. Even though her small black shoes had transformed into a massive sole, they couldn't reach the head of the green-skinned demon and only struck its waist.
But that was enough to bring the demon crashing to the ground.
Yani's power was simply overwhelming.
As the green-skinned demon's body hit the ground, rocky rings emerged around its hands and legs, pinning them to the ground.
The demon struggled, but Yani had already jumped over. With her small shoes firmly on, she stomped down hard, causing the demon to spew blood.
Then she took off her shoes and began to slap the fallen giant repeatedly...
After a series of cracking sounds, the green-skinned demon was finished.
On the other side, Yaten had also begun her counterattack. In her hand was a small fruit knife, not a piece of equipment for wild adventures, but a weapon she particularly liked.
This weapon wasn't crafted by Ye Zhongming, but was a gift from Liu Zhenghong on Yaten's birthday this year.
It was a small, purple dagger.
Many people knew about this weapon, but it was quite unremarkable among the numerous purple weapons in Cloud Summit, mainly because its abilities were too simple. Although that simplicity made it very powerful, the limitations of its size and attack style made it seem somewhat impractical.
This weapon, called "Freeing Myself Fruit Knife," had only two abilities. One was its exceptionally strong attack power; without any abilities applied, very few purple weapons could match it. The second ability was called "Release," a piercing-type skill that fully utilized the dagger's immense attacking power. When activated, it could execute an incredibly fast and continuous eighteen stabs, with each attack increasing by thirty percent.
It was these two abilities that made this weapon very special.
Yaten adored it and kept it on her at all times, and this was the first time she took it out to deal with an enemy.
The green-skinned demon she faced had just been overwhelmed by various elemental giants, and after a hard-fought battle, it had finally been defeated. Just as it turned around, a massive ice pillar fell from above, and a curved bolt of lightning struck beside it, forcing it to find a way to counter.
After dealing with those threats, it suddenly felt a pain in its back. As it glanced back, it caught a glimpse of the small human leaping onto its back, brandishing something unknown as it began to stab at the center of its back.
The structure of the green-skinned demon's back was quite similar to that of a human, supported by a spine and ribs; due to its racial characteristics, it was even sturdier than that of a human. Over time, evolution had made its back the strongest part of the green-skinned demon's defense.
Could a human wielding a toothpick-like weapon really attack such a heavily armored back? That was pure delusion!
The demon roared, planning to turn around and swat the human away with its hand.
However, before it could react, it felt a sharp pain in its head, followed by a crisp cracking sound.
The green-skinned demon instantly felt dizzy, unable to turn its head.
Using the ability "Lonely Ball," Yani appeared beside Yaten, and the terrifying sole of her shoe came crashing down on the demon.
Taking advantage of that moment, Yaten's "Freeing Myself Fruit Knife" completed eighteen stabbing strikes on the demon's back.
Each strike increased the attack power by thirty percent, and by the eighteenth strike, it would be a five hundred and forty percent increase.
The first attack dealt one hundred and three percent damage, the second one hundred and sixty percent, and the third one hundred and ninety… The final strike hit with five hundred and forty percent damage, all focused on a single point, and in an extremely short amount of time.
