Just as Kimber was wondering what was going on, something unexpected happened!
A powerful surge of black energy suddenly poured out of his hand and rushed back into his body.
"A counter-damage ability?"
Kimber's expression changed drastically. He had countless awakened beings under his command and had naturally seen this kind of hedgehog-like ability before.
He had just realized something was wrong when the violent counter-damage energy, like a runaway beast, rampaged and wreaked havoc throughout his body.
To make matters worse, the backlash from the previous overuse of his powers also began at this moment.
In an instant, two terrifying forces collided wildly within Kimber's body like a flood bursting its banks.
"puff!"
Kimber suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, his body trembling violently, like a candle flickering in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment.
Despite suffering such a severe blow, Kimber managed to hold on with sheer willpower and refuse to collapse.
At that moment, he had only one thought in his mind.
"We must kill Li Yu!"
He knew this was his only chance to kill Li Yu, and also the closest he had ever come to success.
If we miss this opportunity, all our previous efforts will be in vain.
Even at great cost, he would do everything in his power to kill Li Yu.
"Awesome!"
Kimber spoke softly, then suddenly pointed his thumb at his chest.
In an instant, his heart began to pound wildly, like an engine that had been ignited, making a deep, thumping sound.
The dark energy that had been exhausted was suddenly surging out again in large quantities.
These immense dark energies continued to burn Kimber's life force, causing blood to seep from his entire body.
However, Kimber remained completely unconcerned about the dire situation, not even flinching.
His eyes were fixed on Li Yu opposite him, and he said coldly:
"If you don't make a move now, you'll miss your chance. Use all your tricks now."
Before he finished speaking, Jinbo approached Li Yu step by step.
"This is... Burning Heart!"
Zhao Deyang, who had been closely following the battle, was very surprised when he sensed the powerful aura that Jin Bo suddenly unleashed.
Zhao Deyang knew very well that anyone who used the Burning Heart technique would ultimately pay the price with their life.
However, faced with Kimber's repeated resurrections, he dared not make any definitive statements.
Having just suffered a heavy blow from Jin Bo, Li Yu felt a surge of blood and qi in her chest and a metallic taste in her throat.
He endured the excruciating pain in his chest, his eyes fixed on Kimber, who was approaching him step by step, his mind racing.
In the blink of an eye, just as Jinbo was a few steps away from Li Yu, Li Yu suddenly raised his crossbow.
"call out!"
A flash of cold light appeared, and the armor-piercing arrow, like a meteor, shot straight toward Kimber's heart with lightning speed.
Kimber seemed to have been on guard all along; a dark door suddenly appeared in front of him, sucking the armor-piercing arrow into the door.
“It’s no use, your arrows can’t hit me,” Jinbo said calmly.
After merging with the memories of his clone, he would never allow Li Yu's arrows to hit him.
Looking at Jinbo, who was covered in blood, Li Yu couldn't help but be amazed.
'Even injured like this, he could still use his supernatural abilities to defend himself until the very last moment. This Shadow Master is truly formidable.'
Even if they couldn't hit Kimber, they could at least buy some time, but now it seems that won't work.
"Is there no other way?"
Li Yu clutched her aching chest with her hand while looking at Uncle Jin who was walking towards her step by step, and for a moment she was lost in thought.
Is this my final destination?
Just then, as if he had suddenly noticed something, Li Yu's gaze fell sharply on the experience points for the crossbow that were about to be upgraded.
In an instant, his eyes lit up:
"No, there's still a chance!"
As if he had found a lifeline, Li Yu quickly pulled out a large bag of exotic beast crystal cores, picked them up, and began to frantically activate the vortex.
The cyclone spun wildly, like an engine running at full power.
As the cyclone spun rapidly, a tremendous suction force suddenly arose from Li Yu's body, and the energy from the alien beast crystal cores was continuously absorbed by Li Yu, flowing directly into his body.
Such a violent absorption method has extremely serious consequences.
When a large amount of energy surged into Li Yu's body in an instant, it was like countless steel needles suddenly piercing into his body.
The excruciating pain nearly made him faint.
But at this moment, he couldn't care less about anything else.
He knew that if he couldn't level up quickly, death would be the only outcome for him.
Li Yu gritted her teeth, enduring the excruciating pain, her eyes fixed on the ever-increasing experience points in front of her.
"Almost there!"
Just when he was about to upgrade, Kimber was already in front of him, not giving him any time to absorb the crystal core.
"Not enough, it needs more time to absorb!"
Li Yu was extremely anxious, her eyes darting anxiously around.
Wang Tianzhao and the others were all seriously injured and unable to stand up, let alone buy him time.
At that moment, Jinbo's extremely cold voice drifted into Li Yu's ears:
"It's probably too late for you to use the crystal core now."
As he said this, the dark energy ball that Kimber was condensing in his hand grew larger and larger, and a terrifying aura spread out.
Despite being in such dire straits, Li Yu seemed not to hear Jin Bo's words and continued to bury himself in desperately absorbing and transforming the enormous energy within the crystal core.
"No need to struggle."
Kimber said calmly, his expression blank, as if he were stating something perfectly ordinary.
"Prepare to meet your death, Li Yu."
As the moment of killing Li Yu approached, Jinbo surprisingly calmed down.
He suddenly felt a sense of calm, and even his tone of voice was no longer as sharp as before.
Before making his move, Jinbo glanced at Li Yu silently, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
As the Shadow Master of the Eternal Flame Alliance, he has always been powerful and omnipotent.
Now they've fought to this point where they're completely exhausted.
He truly hadn't expected what happened today.
But in any case, this series of events and this long battle are finally coming to an end.
Kimber raised the energy ball he had gathered in his hand and gently tossed it toward Li Yu.
The energy ball traced a black path through the air, tearing the air apart wherever it passed, emitting sharp whistling sounds, and heading straight for Li Yu with an aura of destruction.
"Li Yu!"
Wang Tianzhao tried to get up, but his body was completely unresponsive.
Everyone could only watch helplessly as the energy ball flew towards Li Yu, as if time had suddenly frozen.
At this crucial moment.
Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of Li Yu, spreading his arms without hesitation and using his body to block Jin Bo's attack.
The energy ball rushed directly into his body, instantly destroying his internal organs.
"It's...it's a success."
