Chapter 12581
Little did they know, Lin Yi had the speed boost from the tripwire, which gave him an extra 12% speed, in addition to his already above-average base speed.
The combination of these two factors is enough to rival the speed of a fourth-gear car.
Despite his shock, the Saint Killer remained calm.
From our brief encounter, we can conclude that this old monster is indeed not to be trifled with, but all indications suggest that he lacks powerful means of killing.
What's truly worth being slightly wary of is a ranged secret technique similar to Meteor Explosion.
However, given his speed, especially in a one-on-one situation, trying to hit him with such a long-range secret technique is nothing short of a pipe dream.
Moreover, the cooldown time for Meteor Blast is not short; there should be at least three breaths between two shots.
In his eyes, this attack speed was like children playing house.
The only thing Killing Saint needs to consider now is how to take down the opponent in one combo if he gets close.
After all, the opponent is also a master, and this kind of opportunity is rare.
As Killing Saint was pondering, he saw Lin Yi throw out another shot and instinctively dodged.
"Is the buildup time really that short?"
The Black Star Explosion's bizarre trajectory meant it was inherently far larger than any other Dharma Aspect Explosion, making it impossible to defend against. Without the support of Fourth-Gear Divine Speed, even a Saint-Slaying Saint wouldn't easily dodge it.
Just one second later, Lin Yi fired another shot.
"..."
The Saint of Slaughter was somewhat confused: "Is this right?"
Seeing Lin Yi firing one shot per second without stopping, even Zhao Shirong, who was watching from the sidelines, was completely dumbfounded.
As an examiner of the Xuanwu Divine Society, he believed that his perspective far surpassed that of these frogs in a well from Tianjun.
Lin Yi's behavior at this moment was truly incomprehensible to him.
"Is this still the Dharma Form Explosion?"
From any perspective, this is undoubtedly a Dharma-type explosion, and judging from its ballistic performance, it is quite a troublesome one.
The problem is, whose Dharma image is being blown up like cabbages on the roadside, flying around everywhere like that?
The pressure on the assassin instantly increased.
A Dharma Form that is released once per second is completely different from a Dharma Form that explodes once every three breaths.
The key point is that Lin Yi didn't just fire randomly. Every shot was carefully calculated, and the timing of the shot and the prediction of the landing point were all the result of layers of psychological warfare.
With the strength of a Saint Killer, he can dodge three or five shots, but if it happens too often, he will eventually make a mistake.
boom!
A dog cannon shot exploded directly on the Killing Saint.
Killing Saint was startled, but quickly relaxed: "That's it?"
He had witnessed Lin Yi's Black Star Explosion and knew its power was not to be underestimated. With his Dharma Body, he really couldn't withstand more than a few hits.
But this dog cannon shot only has one-fifth of its power at most.
That's a completely different story.
Zhao Shirong was relieved: "So it was just a facade."
If Lin Yi is too strong, he will be difficult to control as a pawn, and there is a real possibility that he might turn the tables.
However, with the power of the dog cannon, even with its ridiculously fast attack speed, it wouldn't exceed the limit.
"So all you did was tickle me?"
The Saint of Slaughter mocked him to his face.
With that level of firepower, he could easily withstand twenty shots.
Lin Yi didn't respond and continued firing his dog cannons methodically.
Killing Saint continued to dodge, but he was no longer as apprehensive as before.
To get close enough, he could take a few hits right in front of him if necessary, even though his physical body was far less robust than that of a Food Saint of the same level, such damage would be negligible.
But soon, things started to go wrong.
After being hit by the third dog cannon, the speed of killing the saint decreased sharply, dropping by 30%!
The journey was fraught with difficulty.
"what's the situation?"
Killing Saint's eyelids twitched violently: "His Dharma Form Explosion even has a slowing effect?"
This kind of thing is simply unheard of.
Even though he had the fourth speed boost, after his speed dropped by 30%, although he was still extremely fast overall, he was as slow as a snail in Lin Yi's eyes.
"Fortunately, his damage was limited."
Killing Saint could only console himself with this thought: if the opponent had a high-burst move like his Assassin Emperor, his current situation would be extremely dangerous.
As he expected, Lin Yi indeed had no intention of rushing forward, and continued to throw the Dharma Image Explosion from a distance.
Killing Saint couldn't help but sneer: "You don't even have this much guts? How did someone like you manage to obtain a four-zhang Dharma form?"
But the smile immediately vanished.
What came rushing towards us wasn't a dog cannon, but a full-power Black Star blast!
With just this one move, the four-zhang-tall Dharma image behind him visibly dimmed, and coupled with the rapid consumption of the fourth-level divine speed, it was now at most only half of its peak strength.
The good news is that the Black Star Blast isn't a dog cannon, so it can't kill one every second.
The bad news is that the "Struggling to Move" effect lasts for three seconds after it is triggered, and if Lin Yi continues to use the "Dog Cannon" skill, there is a high probability that it will be triggered again.
In other words, if the Saint Killer is unlucky enough, the Difficulty of Moving Forward could trigger continuously, leading to a complete death loop.
Keep firing the dog cannon until the Black Star Blast cooldown is over. Then, while the character is struggling with slowed-down control, fire another Black Star Blast and continue firing the dog cannon.
Lin Yi used the same tactics from beginning to end.
Killing Saint never imagined that with his incredible speed of fourth-gear divine speed, he would one day be kited by someone, and the key point is that he didn't even have a way to break the kite!
Before this, he could at least be on par with Lin Yi in terms of speed.
But once the ordeal began, everything became a pipe dream.
Even if luck strikes and you manage to avoid triggering consecutive difficult situations, you finally find an opportunity to get close to Lin Yi and launch a deadly surprise attack.
In the end, Lin Yi, having waited patiently, countered with a single, powerful move: the Three Ephemeral Blossoms.
Even Zhao Shirong and Xu Longyin, the two bystanders, felt despair for him.
"Cutting flesh with a dull knife is like waiting to die step by step."
That despair—that everything was already predetermined, and that no matter how much you struggled, it was all in vain—was forcefully placed on the head of the Killing Saint. One of the Five Saints of a prestigious family, he gradually became as hysterical as a shrew.
Zhao Shirong became more and more excited as he looked at it.
He did intend to recruit the Killing Saint today, but recruiting Lin Yi instead would not be a loss for him.
Regardless of the circumstances, the humiliation he suffered at the hands of the Saint Killer was etched into his very soul.
We will definitely find it one day.
Lin Yi's performance today actually helped him save face.
"What the hell can you do besides dirty tricks? Do you dare to fight me head-on?"
The Killing Saint couldn't help but curse loudly.
Lin Yi was speechless: "Isn't this positive enough?"
Then he added another Black Star Explosion.
The four-zhang-tall Dharma image behind the Killing Saint was already teetering on the verge of collapse. Judging from this, if another round were to come, the Killing Saint would surely die!
