Reincarnation Paradise

Chapter 729: Life and death are only in an instant Novel Paradise of Rein

This move was developed by Su Xiao and Orphan of Resentment after their battle. It is still in the experimental phase and has many shortcomings.

Beforehand, Su Xiao had realized that the Counter Shield was excellent for defending against weapons, but it was not as effective against blunt strikes or charges. It not only injured him but also increased the area of attack on him.

So, Su Xiao developed this move, using an energy shield to form an outer exoskeleton on his body for cushioning. This exoskeleton is not very sturdy, but it can significantly reduce the impact when it shatters.

Su Xiao took a deep breath, and with his Zhanlong Flash reversed, he slashed at Dié holding him tightly.

Splatter.

Blood splattered, and a wound was cut on Dié's side, not a shallow one. Dié let out a muffled groan, and her body started trembling.

Su Xiao's lips curled up. As he had guessed, the defense against his strikes wasn't using psychic energy but some equipment or items.

If Dié could defend against Su Xiao's strikes with psychic energy, her psychic power would be overly exaggerated. Moreover, she was not an Enhancement-type but a Specialty-type.

After being injured by Su Xiao's strike, Dié immediately released her grip, and with her knee, she fiercely hit Su Xiao's lower back.

Su Xiao was pushed several steps forward by the knee strike, and he clutched his lower back. The impact was strong, and it hit his kidney.

Dié's body arched, and she sprang up from the ground like a carp, holding a knife in her hand.

Clang, boom!

Mud splashed, and the sound of the explosion spread out as the two of them fought in a melee.

Five minutes later.

Bang.

Dié kicked Su Xiao, causing him to step back. Warm blood dripped from his chin. Two minutes ago, his left arm had been touched by that heart-shaped psychic energy, and it had completely lost sensation.

The Azure Steel Shadow energy inside Su Xiao's body was slowly devouring this peculiar psychic power, and it wouldn't be long before he could recover. But until then, his arm must not be hit by the enemy, or it would shatter like porcelain.

Dié, a few meters away, was also in a tough spot. She had taken several cuts from Su Xiao, and her body was slightly convulsing, causing her intense pain.

"Damn psychic powers, it's shameless!"

Dié spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, her seductive appearance from earlier now gone. She looked like a tough woman with eight-pack abs on her lower abdomen. Despite her appearance, she exuded a unique charm. She was a close combat fighter not weaker than Su Xiao in terms of combat abilities.

The Zhanlong Flash danced in Su Xiao's hand, and at this point, he no longer regarded Dié as an alluring Contract Holder.

After the initial skirmish, Su Xiao found that Dié was probably more of a support Contract Holder. She possessed control abilities, tracking abilities, and the ability to weaken the enemy's defense.

Even though she was a support fighter, she was a top-tier third-order support fighter. Setting aside the differences in attributes and skills, the equipment alone was enough to give Su Xiao a headache.

Dié's attributes and skills were suppressed, but her equipment was not. This was why she could engage in close combat with Su Xiao. Moreover, as someone who had been active in the Reincarnation Paradise for a long time, she had a wealth of combat experience.

Even so, Su Xiao still felt that he could defeat the enemy in front of him. The reason was that this tough woman seemed to be afraid of pain. Yes, she was afraid of pain.

Comparatively, Su Xiao frequently engaged in close combat with his enemies, and getting hurt was a common occurrence. Under such grueling training, his pain tolerance had significantly increased.

Dié was different. She was the head controller of the Blood Gate Adventurer Team, and during battles, she had many teammates to protect her. Her combat experience mostly came from the arena, while Su Xiao had fought his way through life and death.

"Pain can stimulate a person's ferocity and alert the brain and body to areas with problems. It seems you're not accustomed to it."

Su Xiao approached Dié, who instinctively took a step back. She bit her lip tightly, feeling resentful.

"Only perverts enjoy the sensation of pain, you pervert."

"Thanks for the compliment, but I don't enjoy the sensation of pain."

Su Xiao rushed towards Dié aggressively, and Dié, who had already taken several cuts, leaned towards defense.

Clang.

The long blade struck Dié's forearm, but the sensation felt more like striking an invisible or transparent armor than a human body.

Su Xiao squinted his eyes and dodged Dié's kick. He prepared to strike.

In the previous situation, Dié would have used her body to withstand the Zhanlong Flash and then counter with a kick, causing Su Xiao's injuries. However, when the long blade was about to strike her chest, her pupils contracted, and a golden shield appeared.

Clang.

The Zhanlong Flash was blocked by the golden shield. Dié's ample bosom was well-displayed as she backed away a few meters.

Su Xiao calculated in his mind that based on their battle so far, Dié probably had a piece of equipment that could generate invisible armor, which had very high defensive capabilities, enough to block the Zhanlong Flash with +32 sharpness. This demonstrated her formidable defense.

This invisible armor generated a new one approximately every 60 seconds and entered a cooldown phase of 3 to 5 seconds. The previous cuts on Dié were made during these cooldown periods.

Troublesomely, Dié had a second shield-type equipment that could be seen, which was golden and could be used every 8 to 10 minutes, lasting 2 seconds each time.

Furthermore, Dié had an equipment that temporarily increased her strength and agility attributes. When she received a back throw from Su Xiao earlier, it was due to the boost from that equipment. During those ten seconds, Dié's strength attribute was at least 5 to 10 points higher than Su Xiao's.

After a thorough analysis, Su Xiao classified Dié as having a significant amount of high-quality equipment, but her attributes and skills were suppressed, making her similar to him in strength.

Fortunately, Su Xiao was immune to Dié's charm control; otherwise, he would have lost long ago.

Thinking about this, Su Xiao couldn't help but feel relieved. Luckily, it wasn't three against one; even one support fighter was so troublesome. How strong would the Blazing Blood Guild's main forces be? At the very least, Su Xiao was not currently capable of dealing with them, even if their strength was suppressed.

Su Xiao closed in on Dié without a word, and the long blade in his hand slashed continuously, leaving traces of cuts in the air, which disappeared in an instant.

After another two minutes of fighting, a light emanated from the necklace on Dié's neck, and her speed suddenly skyrocketed. It was the equipment that increased her strength and agility.

Here it comes!

Su Xiao was on high alert, but at the same time, it was an opportunity. The equipment that generated the golden shield had already entered its cooldown phase, and the invisible shield could last for 10 seconds.

With a whoosh, Dié disappeared in front of Su Xiao. Her speed was so fast that it couldn't be captured with dynamic vision.

The moment Dié disappeared, Su Xiao was struck on his spine.

"Dance of Flowers: Romantic."

A pink energy emanated from Dié's knee strike and spread out. Su Xiao spat out a mouthful of blood.

[Warning: You are under the control effect of 'Aixima Secret Blade,' attributes for strength and stamina are being assessed.]

[Stamina attribute assessment in progress... Stamina attribute assessment successful.]

[Strength attribute assessment in progress... Strength attribute assessment failed!]

[You have entered an abnormal state: Dizziness, duration 2 seconds.]

Before losing consciousness, Su Xiao used all his remaining mana to construct a counter shield. Two layers of counter shields formed around him.

Two seconds passed in a flash, when Su Xiao's gaze regained clarity, a sharp pain came from the spine position behind him, the back of his head was hit hard, his ears buzzed, and the most fatal thing was that his neck was strangled, and he was already showing signs of a lack of cerebral sustenance.

Su Xiao's hand grabbed at the arm at the neck, at this time, Die had already formed a guillotine with both arms, the possibility of breaking free was not very high, in the case of complete blood blockage, within seconds Su Xiao would pass out due to insufficient cerebral blood supply.

A smile appeared on Die's face, she seemed to have seen the large amount of benefits given by Stan, already her elevated status within the Blood Gate Adventure Group.

The matter of entering the Holy Grail World was of great importance, as long as it could be done properly, even if it acted against Desolate Incineration's wishes, in the end, Stan would not say anything.

Thinking of this, Dié's arm that was strangling Su Xiao's neck tightened even more, her delicate cheeks were pressed next to Su Xiao's ear, and Su Xiao could clearly feel this woman's panting.

Su Xiao's arm powered up, although he couldn't break free from the guillotine that had been formed, he was able to pull the other party's arm out of a little gap, as for why he didn't use his sword to decapitate the other party, it was because the other party's kind of invisible shield was still in place, and at this time, there was little significance in making a sword, but instead, he would be killed because of it.

Su Xiao took a big breath, the arteries and veins that had been severely squeezed appeared to have gaps, and a small amount of blood was supplied to the brain.

"3.2.1!"

Su Xiao recited silently in his heart, and when the count reached 1, he let go of Dié's arm and threw the Chopper Flash in his right hand to his left hand.

The Chopper Flash inverted and slid down in Su Xiao's left hand, he grabbed the interrupted position of the Chopper Flash, and because his left hand was protected by a metal arm guard, the blade did not cut his hand.

The sharp tip of the blade stabbed back, brushing past Su Xiao's cheek and heading straight for Dié's eye socket.

"This can't be!"

Dié lost her face, she couldn't care about strangling Su Xiao, she hurriedly let go and leapt back, she couldn't figure it out, she couldn't figure out how the enemy grabbed the 4 seconds gap between the disappearance of her 'kinetic armor' and attacked her, coincidence? Coincidence? Of course not, this is the information Su Xiao got after receiving a dozen kicks + a back drop + five knee strikes.

Pfft.

Chopper Flash stabbed into Dié's eye socket, and Aoi Shadow energy went straight to her brain.

"AHHH!!!"

Dié let out an oozing scream, Su Xiao paid no attention to it, backhandedly grabbing Dié's collar, the long knife in his hand continued to stab forward.

Brushing and pulling, the long knife penetrated through Dié's brain marrow, stabbing out from the heavenly inspiration.

Su Xiao's movement was unceasing, pulling out the Chopping Dragon Flash, aiming at Dié's throat was a slash.

Blood splattered several meters away, half of Dié's throat was cut open, she staggered back several steps with both hands covering her throat, blood gushing out from within her fingers.

The kinetic energy armor will Dié's whole body re-covered, but unfortunately it is too late, she took out a bottle of dark purple potion to pour into the mouth, but the potion from the throat wound sprayed out.

"It's...impossible, I'm actually ..."

Dié retreated a few steps back, her voice taking on a sobbing tone, and after a few seconds, her body began to be powerless, and she collapsed to the ground with a thud.

[Hint: Hunters kill high rank bit contractors, scarlet card drop rate increases].

A scarlet card fell to the ground, and this scene fell into the eyes of the little fat man who was tangling with Brother Umbrella who was already bruised and swollen and in a precarious situation.

"Crap!"

Looking at Dié, who had already turned into a corpse, the little fatty froze in place.

Bang.

Brother Umbrella's sandbag-sized metal gloves whacked Little Fatty in the face, and Little Fatty's nose blood splashed from the blow.
