Xia Bai and Ye Zhongming’s bodies went through the effects of the earth yellow pill and Liang Chuyin’s two swings, finally reaching the top of the city wall. Although the long-range attacks from the mutant legion behind them came down like rain, they were still not as fierce as the eighth-level monsters. After using the black bugs to form a cloud, Xia Bai stepped on it, using that little bit of power to leap onto the city wall. However, her legs went weak, and she collapsed to the ground.
Many people breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, as it meant the rescue operation was successful.
In Cloud Summit, anyone could die, but Ye Zhongming could not die.
This person had already become the spiritual pillar of this gradually forming micro-city; if he died, even if Ying City ultimately held its ground, it would be meaningless.
Ye Zhongming was saved, but down below, the core members of Cloud Summit were still in danger.
The earth yellow pill was rapidly falling… Liang Chuyin was being attacked by the eighth-level monster…
“Save them! Save them!”
Mo Ye did not relax at all just because Ye Zhongming was rescued. She merely glanced at Ye Zhongming as he landed, then directed those around her to rescue Liang Chuyin and others.
As for the earth yellow pill… Mo Ye was truly powerless.
Almost simultaneously, both the earth yellow pill and Liang Chuyin reached their most dangerous moment.
The eighth-level monster had five heads—four large and one small—each possessing a different type of attack. The fifth head, although the smallest, had the magic crystal growing on it, surrounded by the four giant heads, clearly its core. The attacks it emitted were naturally the most powerful.
Many skills fell from the city wall, attempting to stop these phantoms, but alas, they were too slow and could not intercept them before the eighth-level monster phantoms hit the human chain. Only the beneficial wind talisman that had long been floating above the city released a wind blade, destroying one phantom.
But this was clearly not enough.
Liang Chuyin knew that it was the most dangerous time. After whipping Xia Bai and Ye Zhongming away, she directly activated the active skill of her weapon—Hailstorm.
She hoped to use this to delay the subsequent attacks.
However, dozens of phantoms entered the hailstorm and only slightly slowed down before continuing their assault.
Evidently, the skill of a silver weapon could not compete with the intensity of an eighth-level life attack.
It was too fast; Liang Chuyin had too little time to react, and at this moment, her choices were few.
“Hold firm!”
Liang Chuyin curled up her body, activating the active ability of her green battle armor.
What she was wearing was the Women’s Earth’s Profound Essence Battle Armor specially made for her by Ye Zhongming.
Liang Chuyin was Ye Zhongming’s woman, and he naturally favored her a lot. This ability was simply an upgraded version of the green-level Thousand Leaf Phosphorescent Armor; there was no reason not to equip it for her immediately. If it weren’t for the very low success rate of imprinting on the armor, Ye Zhongming would have even equipped her with blue-level armor.
In addition to this battle armor, a dagger at her waist and a bracelet on her wrist were also earth equipment.
Now she had three pieces of earth equipment.
This meant she possessed the Earth Set attributes.
This too was something Ye Zhongming specially equipped for Liang Chuyin. The dagger was not of high level and had little effect; it existed solely because Ye Zhongming did not dare to upgrade the Shadow of Deep Cold Ripples with Nourishing Life Soil until he found a better whip, fearing failure. If that happened, Liang Chuyin would have no suitable weapon.
The defense value of the Earth’s Profound Essence Battle Armor was just over six hundred, while the effect of the active ability Hold Firm was to double the defense value at the cost of reducing mobility and agility, instantly raising it to over thirteen hundred defense!
