Previously on Global Towers: Starting With The SSS-Rank Talent, God-Tier Extraction...
Boosted by the SSS-grade special gear, Wings of Wind God, Liu Yan achieved blistering speed and swiftly pursued.
The rainbow spotted white foal possessed innate power and exceptional agility, racing at an astonishing pace.
Despite maxing out his Wings of Wind God to boost his velocity to its peak, Liu Yan managed only to trail just behind the rainbow spotted white foal. Overtaking remained out of reach.
Liu Yan realized this chase couldn't drag on. This was deep within the fog realm, the home turf of the spotted white foal. The creature knew every inch of the terrain intimately, while Liu Yan had zero familiarity with the landscape.
The uncertainty gnawed at Liu Yan, leaving him uneasy. He understood that surprises could strike anytime.
No more waiting. He needed to wrap up this fight fast!
Liu Yan triggered his S-grade ability, Heart of Darkness, without delay.
Dark elemental energies rushed forth, creeping stealthily toward the escaping rainbow spotted white foal.
Mental assaults were tough to spot anyway, and with the foal focused on fleeing in panic, it overlooked Liu Yan's psychic strike amid the chaos.
Heart of Darkness struck the rainbow spotted white foal squarely.
Yet, the foal's mental energy proved robust too. Heart of Darkness failed to inflict serious harm, merely causing a fleeting lapse in concentration.
But in elite confrontations, such a split-second distraction could shift everything.
Liu Yan seized that instant to close the gap.
Gripping his SSS-grade armament, the Flame Demonic Spear, Liu Yan thrust it viciously at the rainbow spotted white foal.
Previously, when two stars below the foal's level, Liu Yan had held his own evenly.
Right now, bolstered by Endless Blood and Purple Shatter Peak, Liu Yan's battle prowess had surged temporarily to 28 stars, surpassing the rainbow spotted white foal by one star.
Against peers, Liu Yan stood unmatched.
With this one-star edge over the rainbow spotted white foal, he could dominate it effortlessly.
Should this strike land, it would obliterate the rainbow spotted white foal on the spot! In this dire instant, the rainbow spotted white foal tapped into its deepest reserves. Its vibrant plumage shed abruptly, swirling toward Liu Yan.
Bereft of its rainbow feathers, the foal now gleamed in plain white, looking utterly unremarkable.
The rainbow spotted white foal cast a wistful look at the drifting colorful feathers, as if loath to lose them.
Still, nothing outweighed the value of survival. Staying alive came first.
Without a backward glance, the rainbow spotted white foal pressed on in flight, forsaking its prized plumage!
A flurry of rainbow feathers barreled at Liu Yan, seeming ethereal and benign, yet Liu Yan detected profound peril.
Even at his 28-star might, clashing directly with this eerie plume barrage might spell disaster.
Liu Yan grasped the foal's desperate ploy instantly. It sacrificed over half its power for a shot at getaway, showing ruthless resolve!
Liu Yan refused to let the rainbow spotted white foal slip away. Remember, tackling the whole herd hinged on capturing this leader.
This rainbow spotted white foal represented Liu Yan's top trophy.
After all the toil and hours invested, he wouldn't let his prime reward vanish.
Liu Yan wouldn't permit it.
He'd take wounds himself before allowing the rainbow spotted white foal to flee.
In a flash, Liu Yan decided.
Ignoring the ominous, fearsome rainbow feathers, he unleashed the SS-grade technique, Spirit Devour!
An odd psychic force gathered and lunged at the bolting rainbow spotted white foal.
Heart of Darkness alone had dazed the foal briefly before. Spirit Devour packed more punch, and now, featherless and weakened, the foal stood even more vulnerable. This strike would surely halt it.
Certain he'd pinned down the rainbow spotted white foal, Liu Yan spun around to shield himself right away.
By then, the rainbow plume loomed mere inches from Liu Yan. Time for protection dwindled.
Though the rainbow feather drifted languidly, it closed in with shocking swiftness in a heartbeat.
In the nick of time, Liu Yan had scant seconds to respond. He hastily invoked the S-grade skill, Illusionary Clone.
Ten phantom duplicates materialized instantly, forming a barrier before Liu Yan.
Meant for offense, he repurposed it for safeguarding.
Each clone mirrored much of Liu Yan's power, particularly in bodily fortitude—nearly identical to his true form.
Liu Yan's physique, amplified by Endless Blood and Purple Shatter Peak, hit 28-star levels temporarily, rendering it formidably robust.
The clones' corporeal might benefited equally, making them ideal for blocking.
In this pivotal crisis, Liu Yan's ten forms served as his mightiest bulwark.
The rainbow feathers seemed frail and yielding, but upon brushing the foremost clone, it disintegrated instantly, offering no opposition.
Next came the second, then third.
In a blink, the clones crumbled sequentially, all pierced through by the rainbow feathers without delay.
Liu Yan's face twisted in alarm at the sight. His own 28-star bodily resilience made his defenses formidable.
Yet these clones, matching that endurance, crumbled helplessly against the bizarre rainbow feathers.
Liu Yan wasted no thoughts and geared up to evade.
Using the delay from the ten clones' stand, he darted aside swiftly.
But Liu Yan's features shifted once more. His frame locked rigid, immobile.
The ambient space appeared to solidify around him.
This rainbow feather harbored potent spatial energy, capable of locking the vicinity, thwarting Liu Yan's evasion.
With extra moments, Liu Yan might have deployed the A-grade Leap Technique, harnessing similar spatial force to shatter free and sidestep, or countered with other powers. But by prioritizing the strike on the rainbow spotted white foal to immobilize it, Liu Yan forfeited vital defensive seconds, leaving no room to maneuver. The ten sturdy clones fell in an instant to the rainbow feathers.
The rainbow feather bore straight down on Liu Yan's core self.
Liu Yan's countenance paled sharply, yet he stood powerless. He could only whip his inner Qi and blood to a frenzy, straining to withstand the peculiar rainbow feather.
The rainbow feather slammed into Liu Yan forthwith.
It appeared airy and innocuous, but on impact, Liu Yan sensed his form go numb at once.
Offering zero resistance, the rainbow feather ripped Liu Yan's frame asunder.
A wave of futility washed over Liu Yan, as if his vaunted physical might meant nothing—the rainbow feather wielded an utterly alien elemental force.
The rainbow feather lanced through him, shredding half of Liu Yan's body entirely.
Liu Yan sensed a lethal chill envelop him, doom imminent in the next breath. Then, the SS-grade passive ability, Qilin Revival, fired up spontaneously.
As a passive trigger, Qilin Revival activated the instant Liu Yan neared death.
The Qilin essence in Liu Yan's lineage ignited. Vast fire elemental energies from nearby flooded into his frame.
With the fire influx, the Qilin essence flared brighter. Fresh blood formed, new tissue knit, bones reformed. Merging together, they rebuilt the mangled half of Liu Yan's body bit by bit.
Liu Yan yanked himself from death's brink, revived in a surge.
Wounds across his form healed at breakneck speed.
Liu Yan drew heavy breaths, his mind reeling in astonishment.
He glanced back to find the eerie rainbow feather suspended motionless in the air, oddly stilled.
Liu Yan refrained from closer inspection. He distanced himself from the peculiar rainbow feather at once.
Noting the feather didn't pursue, Liu Yan eased a bit. He wheeled back to handle the rainbow spotted white foal.
Battered by Spirit Devour, the rainbow spotted white foal blacked out and tumbled down.
Liu Yan beat his Wings of Wind God to swoop in pursuit. He plunged the SSS-grade Flame Demonic Spear into the insensate rainbow spotted white foal, slaying it outright.
Once assured of the rainbow spotted white foal's demise, Liu Yan tucked its remains into his storage ring. Then he soared aloft again, halting at a safe remove from the frozen rainbow feather's position.
