# Chapter 1: I’m Truly Invincible (5)
==============================
As the formidable Feng Yalin, one of the Eight Great Kings of Extermination, made her grand entrance, the morale of the opposing players quickly plummeted. Just when they thought their mission was doomed, an appearance from their own Great Demon raised their spirits, sparking a glimmer of hope.
“Brother, take a break for now; I’ve been itching to see if this old turtle of Thousand Bird City is as tough as they say,” sneered the Alligator Monster, its scaly green body glistening in the light as it swaggered forward, eyeing the thunderous-faced Li Ying Tian with scorn.
How dare a mere level hundred Great Demon act so brazenly before him! The former Great King of the Split Land wouldn’t even dare show off in front of him—when did it become fashionable for low-tier sc*m to strut around?
Li Ying Tian’s cold smirk widened.
“Draw swords!”
His signature skill—materialization of the Mind Sword.
With the Alligator’s strength, he needed only twenty flying swords to handle it without breaking a sweat. But to ensure his victory and showcase the authority of the Sect Leader of Thousand Bird City, he doubled the number of the Heart Swords.
The Alligator just kept grinning stupidly, completely unfazed by the lightning-fast swords flying at him.
Is this guy a complete moron? Doesn’t he care if he dies? Has he not heard of self-preservation?
Cold Little Rain and the other players instantly lost all hope in the Alligator.
As the swords rushed at the still-grinning Alligator from different angles, the crowd sighed, unable to bear to watch.
They initially thought the Great Demons would turn the tide, but instead, they were faced with such an ineffective creature.
Yet what happened next left everyone dumbfounded.
The Alligator suddenly spread its arms and charged headfirst toward the flying swords, as if d*ath had no grip on it.
“Boom! Boom! Boom…”
The swords crashed against the Alligator’s scaly exterior, sounding like rocks colliding on a hardened surface, and shattered into tiny pieces.
The Alligator didn’t slow down at all, barreling forward like a heavy bulldozer straight at Li Ying Tian.
Naturally, Li Ying Tian wouldn’t just sit back and watch. He leaped into the air, unleashing a two-meter-long streak of red sword energy aimed at the Alligator’s long head.
“Clang…”
Li Ying Tian was taken aback.
That damned feeling of powerlessness was strikingly similar to his previous battle against the Licker.
The surface hardness of the Alligator’s body was on par with the Licker’s, completely negating Li Ying Tian’s sword energy.
No wonder the Alligator had appeared so nonchalant; it had already mastered the art of countering Li Ying Tian!
I refuse to believe it!
With the reputation of Thousand Bird City’s Sect Leader at stake, he couldn’t possibly fail in front of so many witnesses!
Li Ying Tian seemed insane, continuously swirling around the Alligator, trying to find a weakness.
But to his disappointment, the Alligator’s body was practically a fortress. No matter where the sword energy hit, it would produce a crisp and despairing sound of rebounding impact.
The onlookers were left in utter shock.
Holy moly, when did the Great Demons of White Feather City get this strong? So, they weren’t giving their all when attacking Cold Wind City?
Even a Sect Leader like Li Ying Tian was getting annihilated!
At this rate, those from Extermination wouldn’t stand a chance against the offensive of White Feather City.
After enduring relentless attacks from Li Ying Tian without a single effective counter, the Alligator could no longer keep its excitement at bay.
“Roar!”
With a fierce roar, the Alligator shot up into the sky like a cannonball.
Its speed was so impressive that Li Ying Tian didn’t even have time to react.
“Boom!”
At the last moment, the red sword energy instinctively rose to defend, colliding heavily with the Alligator.
Li Ying Tian felt a surge of bl**d churn in him as he was sent flying backward.
Refusing to relent, the Alligator followed up with a powerful punch fueled by overwhelming momentum.
The punch landed squarely on Li Ying Tian’s back.
His protective barrier was finally shattered, and a mouthful of fresh bl**d sprayed out, leaving him pale as paper and in disarray.
“Holy cow! That’s impressive!”
“The success rate of White Feather City and the Ji Shen Alliance isn’t without reason. Just look at how a mere Alligator Monster has knocked Li Ying Tian around—it says something, doesn’t it?
It shows that White Feather City has been hiding its strength.
Who knows, the Great King of the Split Land could probably take down ten Li Ying Tian single-handedly!”
【Little Gohan donates 1 Spirit Coin to the Alligator!】
【Clear Spring donates 1 Spirit Coin to the Alligator!】
【Princess Kaguya donates 1 Spirit Coin to the Alligator!】
……
“Just tossing in a 1 Spirit Coin to show some appreciation.”
“Yeah, seeing as he’s working so hard… guess it’s just a gesture of goodwill.”
“Hey, hey, hey! I say, you guys, is it really just because he looks ugly? Come on! I, Wang Weijie, won’t let you guys outdo me—here’s 2 Spirit Coins for the Alligator!”
【Wang Weijie donates 2 Spirit Coins to the Alligator!】
“Cut it!” the crowd rolled their eyes in unison.
Li Ying Tian lay on the ground, hardly able to believe what had just happened.
Leading Thousand Bird City for over four hundred years, he had faced countless enemies. Thousands of Great Demons had met their demise beneath his sword.
But who would have thought that in just a few short hours, he would experience such repeated setbacks?
A Great Demon that once lay at his feet and didn’t dare move now flaunted its power before him, leaving him utterly powerless against the Alligator.
He even began to question if he had unwittingly suffered a deterioration in strength.
Extreme self-doubt made him lose his will to live.
Amid the cheers of players, the Alligator took slow steps toward the bleeding-out Li Ying Tian.
“d*e!”
The Alligator harbored a long-standing grudge against this Supreme Emperor of White Feather City, and now, seizing the opportunity to crush him made it overjoyed.
“Senior, please save my master! Please save him!”
Gongsun Ding, seeing Li Ying Tian in distress, immediately knelt at Feng Yalin’s feet, banging his head eagerly.
If she could save them once, she could do it again.
To his surprise, Feng Yalin coldly replied, “What can Thousand Bird City promise me?”
Gongsun Ding was speechless.
Seeing the weak and helpless Li Ying Tian about to be humiliated to d*ath by the Alligator, Gongsun Ding grew frantic and made a desperate lunge, thrusting his Heart Sword toward the Alligator’s heart.
Unfortunately, his sneak attack didn’t prove effective.
“Snap…”
As the Heart Sword shattered, Gongsun Ding was instantly rattled, spitting bl**d.
The Alligator, irritated, swatted him away like a fly and bent down to firmly grip Li Ying Tian’s neck.
Want a quick d*ath?
Not a chance!
I’ll make sure to torment you slowly in front of everyone!
Gongsun Ding was nearly knocked sideways, but even so, he endured the pain and gasped out, “Master, you can’t d*e!”
“Do you not remember the bodies next to the forbidden land?”
“To save Thousand Bird City, there’s only one way, Master!”
If they all died, they would have to return to their past cycle, forgetting everything that had happened, like puppets controlled by someone else’s program, dying and reviving again and again.
And who was it that had once altered their cycle?
Only Feng Yalin could do that.
With the Alligator’s grip tightening around Li Ying Tian’s neck, his legs instinctively began to tremble. Yet, Gongsun Ding’s words continued to echo in his mind.
In a flash, he understood what Gongsun Ding meant.
He couldn’t d*e!
He must survive!
With great difficulty, Li Ying Tian turned his gaze towards Feng Yalin and nodded, resigning himself to his fate.
