Chapter 755: Chapter 266: Celestial Palace in the Clouds_2
Not until the 9th attempt did Ree Shil finally figure out the Boss’s skills and put together a configuration and card deck that he knew would undoubtedly work without needing the evaluation of the Wind Chasing Messenger.
All in all, there wasn’t much to gain from the monster cards in this level.
Along the way, Ree Shil encountered bizarre things like the Surveillance Man, Refrigerator Man, and Television Man.
These little monsters’ cards didn’t have much appeal, not even a little bit attractive.
No more [Toilet Man] appeared, making it impossible to obtain more cards.
The Boss was a housekeeper robot with four stages.
The robot first started with a cleaning mode, then upgraded to a home security bodyguard mode, then to a skirmish mode, and finally to an all-out war mode with weapons all over its body.
The skill mechanisms and styles of each stage were all very different from each other.
That’s why it took Ree Shil so many attempts to figure out the intricacies of the four stages.
In the end, the Boss’s card from this level didn’t meet Ree Shil’s requirements.
Simply put, the four stages were just four waste cards, way too heavily nerfed.
He didn’t mind, though.
Occasionally, there indeed were checkpoints like this, where the quality of card or the card player’s desires didn’t match.
There were no significant gains from the subsequent Ten-Thousand Card Pool either.
Although a few Determination Type Sword Cards emerged, they were all D-C level, with not a single B level card.
Learning from the previous lesson, he didn’t dare to choose too many Moving Cards; he carefully selected two, but the result was the same – they all failed.
This made Ree Shil even more convinced of his guess that perhaps only Immortal Moving Cards could have better compatibility with the [Flying Sword Immortal].
"Although the card gains aren’t great, the initial funds are quite abundant."
Thanks to mastering the strategy, he defeated the Boss with minimal cost, only choosing a few core inscriptions and not needing to strengthen them or buy too many things from the initial shop.
This resulted in him saving a considerable number of Wind Listening Points to bring into the second checkpoint.
"Awesome, nearly a thousand Wind Listening Points, plus 24 Instance Opportunities."
If the second checkpoint goes smoothly, there’s a feeling that this run might break records.
His current highest record in the Seven Series Dao is [Way of the Wind]’s [Three Gate Nine].
"First, let’s get a[Balanced Lifesharing] set and see what the style of the second checkpoint is."
He chose six cheap and relatively useful Balance Inscriptions and stepped into the teleportation portal.
Hum!
As soon as his feet touched the ground, he looked around at his surroundings.
"Nice place, this round might be stable."
All he could see was the endless blue sky.
Underneath his feet was a special textured cloud-constructed land.
A mist-like thin white gas crept along the ground.
He had encountered a checkpoint with a similar style before.
That was the first time he entered the Seven Series Dao, the first checkpoint style of[Balance-Way of Balance] called Cloud Celestial Palace Gate.
At that time, the entire map was set on a Cloud Celestial Palace, and the monsters were varied divine beasts or celestial demons.
The Boss was an old man expert in alchemy, known as [Lord Poison Immortal].
The[Poisoned]effect from him was incredibly powerful.
In the end, Ree Shil managed to defeat the boss because of the 15 inscription effects of [Power of Listening to the Wind].
[Calm Heart Principle]: Every round, all our cards gain 10 points[Healing]+[Purification]
"If my guess is correct, the monsters in this place should be Immortal Cards and most likely belong to the Wind Listening System."
"Maybe [Flying Sword Immortal] will get a chance to encounter suitable material."
"Let’s have a look."
At present, no buildings could be seen on this small map.
Just white and indistinct, the monsters’ whereabouts remained hidden.
The only clue was a path formed by the faintly visible celestial aura on the ground, guiding his direction.
[Hold on! Who goes there!]
He hadn’t walked far when a man jumped out from the clouds.
The other party wore white armor and held a heavy blade in his hand.
The armor was designed in an antique style and carved with cloud patterns.
No wonder he hadn’t noticed before; this armor had excellent camouflage in this cloud environment.
The appearance of this guy reminded Ree Shil of the [Superior Heavenly Soldier], which had a similar look.
" I... "
[I don’t care who you are!] freewebnoveℓ.com
"But didn’t you ask that yourself!"
As he complained, the heavy blade from the opponent was swung at him.
The movement was swift, impossible to avoid.
Hum!
Then, the blue light pillar fell and the card table was set up.
Considering the overall strength, this time Ree Shil used an all-Kung Fu Deck paired with[Martial Woods].
Whoosh! x3
Three cards in a single row appeared before him from the opposite side.
All had the same heavenly soldier appearance and card face.
Coming into the second checkpoint, the small monsters already started to have 2 attributes.
[Heavenly Soldier of Dao]
Wind Listening, Attack 30, 500/500, 0/2
[Cloud Armor-Passive]: Heavenly Soldier of Dao’s damage received -20 during rounds when energy is not full
[Cloud Capturing Skill-2 points of energy]: Heavenly Soldier of Dao locks onto a target, if the target doesn’t [Move], they will receive 500 points of damage ignoring [Defense] in the next round
"Are you kidding me?"
Seeing these card faces, Ree Shil stared in disbelief.
This monster card was seriously exaggerated.
A damage of 500 points, even the[Tree Giant] couldn’t bear it.
The key was that he himself had adopted the[Balanced Lifesharing]strategy.
If it were just single-target damage, it wouldn’t matter. A damage of 500 points could still overflow.
However, under[Balanced Lifesharing], these 500 points couldn’t overflow!
As a result, three minutes later, he found himself frustrated back in the Pure White Space.
