The Saintess wiped the corner of her mouth and said nothing.

She didn’t know what to say.

Ye Zhongming wasn’t in a good situation, too. She could tell that out of the Glory Staff attacks, Falling Star wasn’t the strongest; Rising Moon was. This was her strongest attack before she obtained Yangos. Since it hit Ye Zhongming, he would be in immense torture.

But the situation was problematic for her.

She felt something weird when the raindrop explosions began. She could still stand because of her determination.

She was already feeling the pain of her body being ripped apart.

She didn’t know the reason, but she was injured. Moreover, it was internal injuries.

At her level, she was just one step away from the highest realm. Her body’s defense was already very strong. An ordinary blade wouldn’t be able to slice her skin. If she wasn’t injured, her healing ability was very terrifying.

But internal injuries were different. They were pretty problematic for experts like them. Organs were the source of their power; if they were injured, it would have a huge effect.

She had been aggressively attacking and couldn’t stop.

She used Rising Moon to try to end the battle quickly.

But she didn’t expect the weird injuries not to stop, and it got more intense. She was facing a huge pressure that pressed her toward the ground.

At that point, she knew the reason.

She was cursed, a curse that would cause her to suffer from damage relative to her attacks.

The person who used that curse was the young man who was smiling at her.

This was the first time the Saintess hated someone. If this guy had not cursed her, Ling Kun’s attack wouldn’t have landed, and the Protector and Hong Xiang wouldn’t have been able to sneak in on her!

“As expected from an evil scum!”

The Saintess placed the Glory Staff beside her. Her eyes lit up, and she healed herself. She had no choice as the battle was far from over.

Ye Zhongming didn’t curse her. He just activated the golden book he got from the One Step Board.

Auspicious Engraving Book.

Although he couldn’t use the Elimination Technique on the One Step Board and the remaining punishments made him hesitate, he couldn’t resist the temptation of the golden equipment and opened it. He obtained the ability of the book.

The ability was simple, just one which was something he loved.

The user could write a non-equipment skill of his own onto the book to raise its strength by 20%. You needed to wait at least a thousand hours before you changed the skill.

20% didn’t seem much, but this was an addition and is considered the ability’s strength itself.

Without the protection of a second life, Ye Zhongming chose Black Halo Shield.

The basic Black Halo Shield reflected 10% damage. After killing the Chain Prisoner and before entering the Secret Realm, he bought a skill upgrade scroll and increased it to Intermediate grade. The damage increased to 30%.

With the 20% from the book, it became 50%. This was similar to upgrading the skill to an advanced grade.

Apart from darkness element abilities, Ye Zhongming could reflect half of any attack.

The Saintess’s Delusion breaking Crown’s attack landed on Ye Zhongming. It was very strong, and using the wheel’s level to grade it, it was at least a gold piece of equipment.

Ye Zhongming didn’t feel good either, and the black dirt armor shattered. The blue armor on his body also cracked. His body was hit, and he was injured.

But when half of the damage spread to the attacker, would they feel good?

Of course not; the damage also injured her.

Although Rising Moon was a gravity attack, it would be reflected, too. While Ye Zhongming felt huge pressure, she was facing it, too. Even if it was only half, it made her feel uncomfortable.

Ye Zhongming’s passive actions made the situation advantageous for them with the book and the Black Halo Shield.

He might be in a bad situation, but don’t forget that there were four of them…

He didn’t know what special ability the Saintess and Yangos had, but Ye Zhongming knew it was strong. The battle might be much simpler if he could badly injure or kill one of them.

Things progressed as he wanted. The Saintess was severely injured.

“You are the most annoying!”

Ye Zhongming stood up slowly until he straightened his back.

The Saintess’s eyes opened wide.

She knew how much pressure Rising Moon had on the body. She squashed many rebel experts into meat paste.

But this guy could stand?

“Girl, you healed yourself, but you are still unable to attack, right?” Ye Zhongming smiled while spitting some blood to the side.

He raised his head and looked at Yangos.

“Big lizard, you can’t move when you are using this skill, right?”

The protector and Ling Kun listened, but they didn’t know what Ye Zhongming wanted to do.

“But I can!”

He flicked his right hand, and some seeds were scattered.

He used some mental energy and Nurture.

A flower garden appeared before everyone.

The few lifeforms didn’t understand what he was doing. Why was Ye Zhongming planting some flowers?

What was surprising was that after he planted those flowers, he didn’t do anything. He just stood there and changed the gems for the Staff of Nature to block the meteors.

“Zhongming, these flowers…”

Hong Xiang was level eight, so he woke up quickly. He didn’t need the protector to help him to his feet and could just sit there. But he couldn’t fight anymore. His level eight body couldn’t take the high-speed clash of his skill.

But before continuing, he noticed that the red clouds were dissipating!
