"That's about it." Leng Yihan reset her skill tree at a guild NPC and reselected her skills. After confirming her skills, she turned and left the guild to practice in the arena's ranked matches. However, the last skill, Divine Possession... it should be impossible for anyone to force out this skill by themselves, unless there are five or more people.

Moreover, Leng Yihan's two weapons—the katana and the greatsword—are now both divine artifacts. The greatsword was found along with Leng Binglan's short sword during a mission with her.

I'm sure many people are wondering at this point... why does Xue Yi have so many special effects? Why didn't Leng Yihan use them when she was fighting?

The reason is simple: if he used these special effects, his enjoyment would undoubtedly be greatly reduced. Therefore, Xueyi's freezing effect is triggered by the original probability. He has never used the other two active skills, only Ice Blade.

Back to the present, Leng Yihan has arrived at the arena, while Leng Binglan, on the other side, has finally defeated Shuang, a fellow swordsman ranked eleventh on the God Ranking, and then stopped matching. The reason is simple.

Extreme Cold: Free Room, come on, Password: 2233332222333322

Blue Moon: Understood~

Leng Yihan naturally entered the free room before Leng Binglan. Not long after Leng Yihan entered, Leng Binglan also appeared on the teleportation array.

"Brother Yihan, what do you want from me?"

"A one-on-one duel," Leng Yihan said calmly. Leng Binglan's expression changed slightly, then she adopted a rather interested look. "Oh? Brother Yihan wants to duel with me? Sure~ What's in it for you?"

Leng Yihan put her hands together and looked at Leng Binglan with a malicious look, saying, "If I win... you will tell me something about parallel worlds. If I lose... I will grant you one reasonable request."

Leng Binglan was stunned and looked at Leng Yihan in disbelief. "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?" Leng Yihan said this with a half-smile on her face.

"Why... how did you know..." Leng Binglan stared wide-eyed at Leng Yihan, who suddenly laughed and replied, "Nonsense, what I said just now was a lie. I didn't know myself, I only had a guess, but now... you've confirmed it for me."

Leng Binglan didn't speak, but just silently looked at Leng Yihan with a complicated expression. "What?" Leng Yihan asked, but the only answer he got was a shake of his head: "Since you want to know, Brother Yihan... then I'll play along to the end. After all... I might not necessarily lose." Leng Binglan said, revealing a confident smile.

"If you're so confident, then come on." After hearing Leng Binglan's confirmation, Leng Yihan immediately sent a challenge request to Leng Binglan.

[Would you accept the challenge from player 'Extreme Cold'?]

A pop-up window appeared in front of Leng Binglan, and she naturally clicked "yes." A flash of white light, and the two of them were standing quite far from the teleportation point.

[Map confirmed: Free House (Grassland)]

Blue Moon vs. Extreme Cold

[Countdown begins: 3]

【2】

【1】

The countdown has ended, and the battle is about to begin. Leng Yihan and Leng Binglan are not the same as they were thirty or forty chapters ago. Both of them have changed a lot. Moreover, their duel can be said to be much fairer than the others because their luck will be lower.

Both of them are capable of turning low probabilities into 100%, but when they fight together, the probabilities become normal again, and luck becomes irrelevant.

"It's difficult for both Yi Han and me to unleash the sword energy of the Phantom Invisible Sword right now... But Yi Han also possesses the domineering power of Chaos, plus the Void. Staying too close to him for too long would definitely be unwise..." Leng Binglan thought to herself, not rushing towards Leng Yi Han immediately, but maintaining a certain distance from him.

Leng Yihan didn't rush forward immediately, but he continued to slowly approach. Soon, Leng Binglan was at the edge of the arena. "Fortunately... if I had used Qi Blade Slash and Sword Edge, I wouldn't be able to dodge Yihan's Frostfall by switching to a short sword and leaping three feet... I should first use Ancient Soul Devouring to wear him down, and try not to engage in prolonged close combat with Yihan, as that would undoubtedly put me at a disadvantage." Leng Binglan thought to himself, and immediately swung his sword in advance. The sword energy from the Ancient Soul Devouring effect slashed towards Leng Yihan. Although it didn't hit, it could still slow down Leng Yihan's pace, making him need to spend more time dodging.

The two knew each other quite well (they had shown each other the attributes of their equipment), and Leng Yihan knew what Leng Binglan was planning. So why would she give her a chance to wear herself down? With her sword intent activated, Leng Yihan's speed increased dramatically, and she rushed towards Leng Binglan at lightning speed.

Seeing Leng Yihan rushing towards her, Leng Binglan tried to dodge with her Triple Slash. Leng Yihan immediately activated Frostfall and charged towards Leng Binglan at extremely high speed. Leng Binglan also tried her best to use the characteristics of switching between short swords to refresh Triple Slash and long swords to wear down Leng Yihan. In the end, she managed to escape Frostfall's range just before Leng Yihan entered her attack range.

"What do we do next... counterattack? Or continue to keep our distance and kite him? But the sword energy of the Ancient Soul Devourer can't hit Brother Yihan at all... let's take a gamble!" Leng Binglan switched to a longsword, unleashing the Phantom Invisible Sword, and combined it with the Ancient Soul Devourer to unleash wave after wave of sword energy. The dense sword energy successfully slowed down Leng Yihan's steps. Seeing this, Leng Yihan activated his sword shield and instantly charged forward with the Triple Slash. An upward slash forced Leng Binglan to interrupt the Phantom Invisible Sword, leaping three feet to dodge Leng Yihan's upward slash, and then immediately launched an upward slash at Leng Yihan.

But the next moment, Leng Yihan disappeared before her eyes. "Damn it!" Leng Binglan exclaimed. She turned around and used her innate skill, Parry, to try to block Leng Yihan's Silver Light Slash, but she failed to block and only managed to avoid some of the damage. The next moment, Leng Yihan's sword blew out, directly pushing Leng Binglan back into the range of Frostfall.

Leng Binglan immediately activated her sword intent, triggering the equipment effect and breaking free from Leng Yihan's control. She quickly leaped three feet in two stages to escape the range of Frostfall, but... she was still under Leng Yihan's control.

As the six-pointed sword formation descended, Leng Binglan immediately activated her sword and shield to block the damage caused by the six swords of the formation. However, she caught a glimpse of a silver light flashing towards her out of the corner of her eye.

"The Big Dipper..." Leng Binglan realized it was the Big Dipper, but the Big Dipper was also invincible during its release. Leng Binglan tried to block the damage from the Big Dipper, but she couldn't escape the damage from the six-pointed sword formation.

In the end, Leng Binglan only blocked two attacks from the Big Dipper and one attack from the Hexagram Sword Formation, taking all the remaining damage. She was even frozen by Leng Yihan with a low probability.

The moment Leng Yihan appeared, Leng Binglan decisively used Silver Light Slash to break free from the control effect and teleported behind Leng Yihan. However, she did not counterattack because she knew that Leng Yihan would definitely react in time. After teleporting, she canceled the Silver Light Slash attack and switched to a short sword triple slash to get away from Leng Yihan. "Brother Yihan has used quite a few skills... but he hasn't used Qi recovery and sword draw slash yet, and he hasn't used Blade Storm either... Blade Storm?"

Leng Binglan suddenly realized something. Without time to switch back to her longsword, she used her short sword to unleash a Shadow Cross Combo, entering an invincible state and narrowly dodging Leng Yihan's blade storm. This Shadow Cross Combo reduced Leng Yihan's health by 13%. Leng Yihan still had 87% health, but Leng Binglan only had 62%. "After the Shadow Cross Combo ends... first, use Rising Dragon Slash to stall, then switch back to my longsword and activate Qi recovery..." Thinking it, she immediately put it into action. The instant Leng Binglan ended the Shadow Cross Combo, she unleashed Rising Dragon Slash with her short sword. The attack had a short wind-up and a short recovery time. Although the damage wasn't as high, the effect remained unchanged. Leng Yihan could only backflip to dodge the Rising Dragon Slash. Leng Binglan immediately canceled the Rising Dragon Slash, switched back to her longsword, and activated Qi recovery. Instead of immediately advancing, Leng Binglan triggered the Ancient Soul Devourer equipment effect—Wild Beast—summoning a wild dragon to assist her.

Just as Leng Yihan was about to rush forward and attack Leng Binglan, a crack appeared between the two of them. Then, the crack was pried open by two claws. When Leng Yihan saw this, she knew what Leng Binglan had used. She immediately went around the crack and tried to finish off Leng Binglan before the Desolate Dragon came out. Leng Binglan did not switch back to her short sword (because switching to a short sword midway through the summoning would cause the summoning to fail), and decisively used her level 75 ultimate move.

[Skill: Maximum Efficiency]

[Learning Level: 75]

[Cooldown: 120 seconds]

[Effect: Greatly increases attack speed, reaction speed, and movement speed for 5 seconds.]

Unable to upgrade

This is one of the level 75 skills of the Sword Master, Extreme Efficiency. With just five seconds, Leng Yihan could no longer deal with Leng Binglan first, and might even be countered. Taking advantage of Extreme Efficiency, Leng Binglan rushed up and unleashed a series of normal attacks. The speed was so fast that Leng Yihan could hardly cope with it. She could only try her best to block most of the fatal attacks, but her own health dropped to 49%, while Leng Binglan's health returned to 80%. At this time, the Wild Dragon also appeared.

"Roar--"

"Tsk, this is really troublesome..."

61. Regarding the winner of the duel between the two and Blue Moon vs. Rain Flute

"Tsk... This is really troublesome." Leng Yihan clicked her tongue. The combat power of the Wild Dragon can be said to be the strongest creature in the game except for the BOSS of the 100-player dungeon, because its level... exceeds level 75.

[Summoned Item: Wild Dragon]

[Type: Wild Beast (Dragon)]

[Level: 85]

Current Health: 100%

[Attack Power: Extremely High]

[Defense: Extremely High]

Special Attack Methods: Death Breath (spews out a breath imbued with death), Summon Dragon Spirits (summons three dragon spirits to assist in the attack)

[Note: Wow, this guy's not easy to deal with; he's not one to fight one-on-one!]

"Desolate Dragon—Attack him!" After the Desolate Dragon broke free from the spatial rift, Leng Binglan immediately pointed at Leng Yihan and shouted. At the same time, she did not stop her own actions, using the special effect of Desolate Ancient Soul Devouring to consume Leng Yihan from a distance, which also affected his movement.

As soon as the Desolate Dragon appeared, it roared after hearing its master's command. This roar directly reduced Leng Yihan's health by about 10%. Then, three dragon shadows, slightly smaller than the Desolate Dragon, appeared beside it. The Desolate Dragon had a built-in skill to summon dragon spirits, and the situation changed from one-on-one to one-on-five in an instant. Even though the dragon spirits were not as strong as the Desolate Dragon, they were definitely not weak either.

[Summoned Item: Wild Dragon Spirit]

[Type: Wild Beast (Dragon Spirit)]

[Level: 80]

Current Health: 100%

[Attack Power: Extremely High]

[Defense: Weak]

[Special Attack Methods: Death Dragon Breath (spews out dragon breath imbued with death), various elemental magic (can use any elemental magic), Dragon Spirit Array (three dragon spirits burn their life force to form a dragon spirit array, during which any known magic can be instantly cast)]

"Five...this is really troublesome." Although Leng Yihan kept saying how troublesome it was, he wasn't the type to avoid doing something just because it was troublesome. On the contrary, he was actually quite happy that defeating Leng Binglan was so difficult. Otherwise, he would be truly invincible in this game, and only Leng Binglan would have a chance to defeat him. No one else could beat him because his 'luck' was just too good. His fatal wounds could stay at 1%, ranged attacks almost never hit him, and low-probability special effects could trigger 100%, often putting him in an invincible situation in battle. However, Leng Binglan was the same kind of person, so when the two fought, their luck was neutralized. They could fight fairly like ordinary people without relying on supernatural abilities...

Although it might not be entirely fair for Leng Binglan, the current situation undoubtedly favors Leng Binglan, as she has more health and more players than Leng Yihan. Furthermore, Leng Yihan struggles to kill Huanglong quickly when she cannot trigger Xueyi's numerous low-probability special effects.

“There are three solutions. First, kill the Dragon Spirit, then kill the Desolate Dragon, and finally kill Ice Blue. But this is undoubtedly the most difficult. After killing the Desolate Dragon, the Dragon Spirit will naturally disappear, and then you can kill Ice Blue. If you can kill Ice Blue directly, that would be the best, but this method is even more difficult than the first one.” Leng Yihan licked his dry lips. The three methods he had thought of were all at least as difficult as the first one. If he could kill Leng Binglan directly, then Leng Yihan would naturally be the winner of this match, and whether the Desolate Dragon was still there or not would not matter. But the question is, given this, can he break through the protection of the Desolate Dragon and the Dragon Spirit, and then use the Shadow Strike skill to kill Leng Binglan directly in a very short time? Obviously not.

Although Leng Yihan could ignore the output of the Desolate Dragon and attack Leng Binglan by relying on the Void of Chaos Greatsword, she absolutely could not ignore the magic damage of the Dragon Spirit, as well as the Death Dragon Breath of both of them. Putting aside the Death Dragon Breath, if Leng Yihan activated Void and took a few spells from the Dragon Spirit, she might just die instantly. Not to mention taking the Death Dragon Breath, Leng Yihan would die the moment she was touched.

[Skill: Death Dragon Breath]

[Unable to learn]

[Effect: Unleashes a dragon's breath, dealing extremely high magic damage and granting immunity to all spell damage. The deathly aura of the dragon's breath will also adhere to enemies upon impact, reducing their true health by 10% per second and reducing all health regeneration effects by 75% for 10 seconds.]

Leng Yihan only took a few seconds to think of the above, but by then the Desolate Dragon and the Dragon Spirit had already charged forward. Leng Binglan didn't move forward either, relying instead on the sword energy of the Ancient Soul Devourer to wear down Leng Yihan. However, Leng Yihan couldn't be hit by these sword energies. If she were hit, the slowing effect could completely affect her ability to dodge the Desolate Dragon's attacks, resulting in immediate death. Therefore, Leng Yihan had to avoid being hit by the Desolate Dragon and the Dragon Spirit's potentially fatal dragon breath while also dodging Leng Binglan's attacks from a distance. The most dangerous moment would be when Leng Binglan's ultimate efficiency cooldown was ready...

"No... I must deal with one of the dragon spirits first." Not long after dodging, Leng Yihan realized that the three dragon spirits together were terrifying. The high-frequency spell attacks left Leng Yihan completely powerless to fight back. The Desolate Dragon did not make a move at all, its huge head staring at Leng Yihan, as if if Leng Yihan made a mistake, the Desolate Dragon would spew out a death dragon breath and instantly kill Leng Yihan.

However, Leng Binglan rushed up before the Extreme Efficiency cooldown was over, determined to finish off Leng Yihan in a short time. "What's going on? Why don't you wait until the Extreme Efficiency cooldown is over before coming up to fight me?" Just as Leng Yihan was wondering, the memory of the third special effect of Ancient Soul Devouring that was still a bit blurry in her mind suddenly became clear.

"That's right! These guys can only last for one minute!" After remembering this, Leng Yihan became even less anxious. He retreated again and again, his defense was absolutely watertight. And as soon as the duration of the Desolate Dragon ended... it would be time for Leng Yihan to counterattack.

Time ticked by, and Leng Binglan's movements became faster and faster. The frequency of Long Ling's attacks also gradually increased. Even the Desolate Dragon began to use its enormous dragon claws to attack Leng Yihan. If it weren't for the speed of her sword intent and her not-so-bad reflexes, Leng Yihan would probably have already lost her life.
