Another Almost-Fallen, Sacred Beast Protector Perpetual Black Turtle (2)
[Martyr Black Turtle, Almost-Fallen]: Type: Beast(Sacred), Grade: Legendary, Level: 135, HP: 1,150,000,000. As the Sacred Protector of the Perpetual Black Turtle Sub-Division, this incredible, previously a Mythical being has had been given up on its own fate in exchange of something important. With your truly vast Mental Power, you're able to delve deeper into the Almost-Fallen. At the same time, it had also successfully stagnated the forced Fallen Fate and endured this ordeal even as it was passed by its bloodline. But, how long can it truly last? Having already lived for tens of thousands of years, the actual Black Turtle has given up to be in-between a 'nobody' and an Almost-Fallen for the sake of its youngling, but it is hence in a race against time to see whether he would successfully die or to forcefully become a Fallen; in time.
Skills: Skin of the Black Turtle, Shell of the Black Turtle, Sacred Protector, Perpetually Standing, Earthly Stomp and Gravity Stomp.
[Skin of the Black Turtle] All incoming Magical Damage is limited to 500.
[Shell of the Black Turtle] All incoming Physical Damage is limited to 500.
[Sacred Protector]: Counts with unbelievable potential and regenerative powers. Heals HP+2,500 per second when in battle and also has a low chance of exponentially reducing incoming damage from most skills of those who are lower levelled than the Perpetual Black Turtle itself by a vast amount.
[Perpetually Standing] Cannot be inflicted any type of negative altered affects and cannot be thrown backwards, cannot be poisoned nor bleed and all Earth Core Elemental Damage received will heal the Black Turtle with 200% growth rate.
[Earthly Stomp] The Black Turtle stomps its legs against the ground even without needing to lift them at all, forcing the entire place surrounding it by 1,000 meters to tremble and rumble incessantly for 25 second, dealing damage only once in 50,000 of the Earth Core Element and Stunning those afflicted targets for 25 seconds. This skill also creates a rumbling and strong vibration that soars up into the sky to deal the exactly same amount of damage but instead of Stunning the afflicted targets, it Paralyses them for 7 seconds. Usage rate: Slightly Rare. Cannot be blocked, cannot be interrupted. Cast time: 2 seconds.
[Gravity Stomp] The Black Turtle evokes the Earth Core Elemental particles 50km around it to increase the gravity surrounding it by 200 meters. It inflicts Slow on any target within the range of effect by 85% and lowers their Physical Defense and Magical Defense by 20%, also rendering useless all Damage Reduction effects. Usage rate: Rare. Cannot be blocked, cannot be mitigated and cannot be interrupted. Cast time: 0.5 seconds.
"!!!" Yun Beishang couldn't believe it, his eyes didn't wanted and the sight of his 1,000 damage against it made his heart and brain also not want it! 'Are you fucking kidding me?'
But Yun Beishang wouldn't kindly ask the Black Turtle that, with such a thought of absurdity and rage entering into his mind already deep within his consciousness, Yun Beishang asked Rosey to use her wonderfully and surely still with higher precedence skills on the hard shell of the Black Turtle that he surely just now hit after teleporting right into its own Sacred Underground. At this time, he still hadn't had a chance to see all of its body, and he could only retreat wildly just in case it did anything weird. After all, though it only had 2 active skills, it should have very different forms and ways of attacking, let alone a little ant like him; because indeed, the Black Turtle was enormous already and only its shell was visible.
Everything surrounding Yun Beishang was barren walls, flooring and even ceiling, of a brownish-green and yellow color, and of course it was all seemingly made of dirt. Even if it was an special type of dirt only 'it' could be able to endure the heaviness of anything else that is above the Sacred Underground itself, it was still just dirt. And though Yun Beishang might believe that it once held a meaning and could have been perhaps coherent and beautiful, natural to look at; it was now all what a Fallen could entail to be living within.
The shell was easily more than a kilometer long and around 400 meters wide. As for its thickness, or its fatness instead; it should be around 250 meters. It was just gigantic, and there was still the thought of it having been already an Almost-Fallen after so long, naturally, there should be some shrinking since unlike the Azure Dragon, the Black Turtle gave up its everything except its body to protect its baby; wherever or whatever it might actually be. As for the Black Turtle's legs, tail and head; they weren't visible, but soon, they will. Yun Beishang knew so of course, since he could already smell that familiar scent ever more powerfully by the moment as time passed by, even as quickly as it has only been a few seconds since Yun Beishang propelled himself backwards, for Rosey to then come out of his sternum and then use her wonderful skill.
Rosey, Destroying Dooming Bloom!
KA-POM!
-52,062,000.
'Phew...' Exerting out a mental sigh in relief inside his mind Yun Beishang felt his body's stress leave out his body for as the damned shit wasn't all omnipresent like Rosey's talents were, hell, even if Rosey wanted, maybe she could just go ahead and be the main DPS while Yun Beishang tanked. Which, in fact, was Yun Beishang's plan ever since realizing of his miserable damage output towards the Black Turtle.
Without needing to say anything, Yun Beishang landed on the floor as his Mind-Sensory had already turned into a short bow in his left hand while two arrows began to appear in his right hand instead, over and over again as he rapidly slightly pulled the short bow's bowstring and as he aimed for both the shell and the still sleepy -?- or hidden Black Turtle's body.
At the same time, Yun Beishang took this chance to allow his body's veins to stand out, as blood powerfully pumped into them nonstop and as his body became a few centimeters overall larger than usual, even inside the game.
Transcended Divine Burst
Creak-creak-creak-creak-creak...
Whistle! Whistle! Whistle! Whistle! Whistle!
Tuk, tuk, tuk, tuk, tuk, tuk, tuk, tuk, tuk, tuk...
-1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000...
And Rosey would obviously not stand and do nothing, the 5-6 year old looking small thing moved her feet beautifully towards the Black Turtle as she saw her big brother fearlessly aim, shoot and ultimately provoke this existence that he couldn't really dream to take out. For each two-arrowed wideshots he landed a hit on the shell and in its legs, tail and head holes, it would heal up back 500 HP. But he still didn't gave a damn and kept shooting as if he was still killing the easy-to-oneshot guards of the Azure Dragon. To all of this, he was actually glad that he didn't need to waste his own personal resources so much anymore as he had barely created another couple tens of thousands of Falling Rain Arrows; while Yun Beishang had his head and thoughts roaming aimlessly, a dedicated and obedient little sister moved on to carry her big brother up!
Before, the distancing that Yun Beishang made of himself after having 'landed' on the Black Turtle after another one of those quirky teleportations was of 150 meters. By the time he finished shooting a few two-arrowed wideshots, Rosey had reached the Black Turtle's shell that was now basically trembling all over. The meaning of this was simple, it was about to appear!
At that single moment, before Rosey could land her first powerful fist on the shell, her eyes gleamed intelligently as not even Yun Beishang had the chance to command her for as she was already surrounded by a powerful, at-the-apex kind of presence.
Rosey, Myriad Kingdom's Roots!
Cr-CRA-Crrr-CRAAAAACK!
The ground under and around the Black Turtle cracked, the seemingly impenetrable floor and even the ceiling up above were like tofu as the endless vines that were the size of a simple one-storey building in volume yet as large as Rosey wanted them to be; encircled the Black Turtle. At first, seemingly softly, but then incredibly ruthlessly as they tightened to the point where the previously trembling shell of the Black Turtle became completely still. What's worst, it couldn't even destroy the things as it didn't had a way to attack them!
'Good Rosey!' Silently praising her in his heart, Yun Beishang kept shooting off some more arrows with his Mind-Sensory Short Bow while Rosey seemingly as if noticing something, became cheerful and began beating the shit out of the Black Turtle's shell.
Whistle! Whistle! Whistle! Whistle! Whistle!
-1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000.
Naturally, Rosey's fists and kicks resonated thorough the entire tunnel-like Sacred Underground like crazy... With some occasional slapping with the palms of her clawy-like hands.
Pom! Pum! Pah! Fwoot! Pom! Pom! Pom! Slap!
-41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610...
Unlike her big brother, Rosey did not only had 100% Pierce Rate but she was also a being that was innately born at the apex, such a being couldn't possibly be included in the damage reduction of this absurd Black Turtle even if Pierce Rate was meaningless here; the truth of the situation was Rosey being the one attacking and not herself having a whooping 100% Pierce Rate.
Naturally, at the same time as all of this was being developed, the Black Turtle's body and shell weren't to remain motionless and submit to fate; nope. The Black Turtle's instincts kicked in as their Almost-Fallen State flared up, there were grounding sounds as it tried its best to move to no avail. only managing to crack slightly more the ground and to allow the veins to even gain some more strength on it, eventually rendering it completely immobile as Yun Beishang's and Rosey's attacks ensued with fervor continuously.
Creaaaack~! CRACK... ...
Pum! Pum! Pum! Pom! Pom! Pom! Bang! Bang! Slap!
-41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610, -41,610...
Whistle~ whistle! Whistle! Whistle! Whistle! Whistle!
-1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000, -1,000...
At some point, even Yun Beishang felt like he was humiliating, or more like embarrassing, his adopted little sister as he made a few tens of thousands of damage to the damned thing while Rosey herself did millions instead at the same interval. It was a bit pathetic alright. But it was normal as well, after all, though Yun Beishang was quite close to having the same Attack/Action Speed of Rosey, his damage was pathetically decreased to overly embarrassing levels. Not even the Azure Dragon was this defiant, of course, the Azure Dragon never gave up on its fight against whatever this 'forced Almost-Fallen' State was and to whoever it was also against. No matter.
Yun Beishang and Rosey kept on shooting and beating up the Black Turtle, soon enough a few minutes went by already but the Black Turtle was still deathly silent, and Yun Beishang knew something was up, something as of in the manner of awaiting an opportunity. A Sacred Beast Protector, indeed, even though in this State, they couldn't be considered dumb as they were already way above the 'gaining sentience and true intelligence' Heavenly grade and were once in the Mythical grade even; though they were now in the Legendary grade one, how could they just simply be stupid?
At this time, the top of Rosey's head beamed up in a pale-rosy light glow as she hovered above the air, this time choosing to directly attack where either the tail or head hole was located at.
Rosey, Destroying Dooming Bloom!
KA-POM!
-104,124,000.
'Good!' It was difficult to see Rosey effectively land a Critical Hit on an enemy, especially when they were more than 30 levels above her own, and when they were thrice the amazing type of existences such as any Sacred Beast Protector. And right now, as the same quirky immense damage done by Rosey's Destroying Dooming Bloom once again gave out a number that wasn't supposed to give, made Yun Beishang want to hug the little thing and promise her the world and beyond!
Black Turtle's HP: 649,319,200/1,150,000,000.
Yun Beishang's pathetic damage only amounted to a bit more than 840,000 when using normal two-arrowed wideshots, and another 13,440,000 with some of the Falling Rain Arrows fully hitting it every 2 or 3 two-arrowed wideshots, allowing the 7 minutes spent on this fight to not be fully wasted. Meanwhile, Rosey's damage of her Destroying Dooming Bloom alone were already that of 416,496,000 while her basic attacks' damage amount up to 69,904,800. Amounting to a total of 500,680,800 damage dealt against it!
With such an intense lowering of its HP, why has the Black Turtle not reacted? Even if its active skills were rather rare on its usage, they couldn't be simply impossible to appear after more than half of its HP has been downed, right? In fact, taking out 100,000,000 to 151,000,000 of its HP should've activated at least one of them; the less rare of the two, namely the Earthly Stomp.
And indeed, nor Yun Beishang nor Rosey or even the Black Turtle were stupid enough to just become condescending and overconfident from the unresponsive Black Turtle itself, at all time, they were on guard. But at the same time, the weren't simply going to cower away and lose the opportunity of dealing all the damage that they could towards it.
Pom! Pom! Pom!
Whistle! Whistle! Whistle!
Their attacking continued; Yun Beishang sent arrows towards it while Rosey beat the shit out of it continuously. Then, the two of them sensed something as they then looked into one of the holes that could either be the tail or the head.
"!" A pair of lifeless, light blue, ghostly eyes appeared amidst the darkness withing the turtle shell's insides. Before a slight rumbling began to echo from the ground, to up above in the air, waves of vibrations entered Yun Beishang's observant eyes as his ears tingled in a strange manner over and over again, as if forming a pattern.
Creack...-CRASH!!!
Suddenly, the vines that were holding the entire turtle shell of the Black Turtle were crushed apart, even as they have had already been reinforced with more and more Myriad Kingdom's Roots from Rosey's skillset, as it had already been superimposed with one another 7 times already since the fight started. And the culprit for their immediate tearing, was none other than the Black Turtle's legs!
But, it was not only that, but instead because of a major other reason. Earthly Stomp!
'ROSEY!' Signaling to his adopted little sister, Yun Beishang jumped high into the air and dashed towards Rosey with all of his strength, his balanced stats were fully focused and used at its max while his Mind-Sensory was turning into a different type of weapon that he hand't used ever before. He only wanted to get a hold of his adopted little sister and save the two of them from danger, even though Rosey could save herself, she would risk her own life for Yun Beishang nonetheless, what better than running up to her already and to decrease the weight on her shoulders?
But would the Black Turtle give them time to reunite, happily ever after if anything? Hell no.
STOMP!!
RUMBLE~~!! RUMBLE~~!!
'Ah, fuck!' Yun Beishang though to himself while feeling his feet about to be rooted to the ground, with a decisive stomp, he propelled himself with his Mental Power enveloping his legs and mostly his feet and calves; as he then directly dashed into a free-falling-like motion in midair. Not flying nor simply jumping, some whitish and greyish energy were surrounding him right and left respectively, his 'flying' speed increased exponentially, even more than even Rosey's, whose Movement Speed was already at 300%!
"BRRRRRRRR~!" Crossing her eyes tightly shut in an adorable manner, his Little Rosey opened up her arm and closed them only to open them again towards him. Like this, she managed to reach him half a second right before the floor quaked and turned into jelly while some parts directly cracked open and separated from the rest of the jelly-turned-into floor and began jumping up and down forcefully and fearfully nonstop.
At the same time that Rosey's arms 'strangled' Yun Beishang's neck, he found himself immediately stop and be elevated upwards, Rosey had caught him already and was now bringing him a few meters below the almost-invisible-like aerial area whose vibration waves were only clearly visible to the highly Mental Power hidden stat owners Yun Beishang and Rosey.
"Brrr~..." With her eyes still closed, Rosey tightly hugged Yun Beishang. She wasn't playing around, her acts became fearful for some many reasons, she didn't wanted to die nor she wanted to see her beloved big bro die. So what if they had a chance to come back up and not lose anything? If they really ended up dying by recklessly allowing themselves to suffer such early deaths in the fight as if it was common, they were meant to lose, and her big brother would never again have a chance to become the Evil God. That couldn't happened.
Yun Beishang didn't say a single thing, merely lifting his left hand to pet her and comfort her physically, his heart melting. While his right hand was instead about to be swung towards the incoming, noiselessly and strangely super fast spinning turtle shell of the Black Turtle!
Whhh-whap!
The Mind-Sensory whip connected to the edges of the turtle shell, but it was already too late when it did so, for as Yun Beishang and Rosey's bodies were sent upwards by the accurately spinning Black Turtle who was still hiding in its turtle shell, the bastard.
'Fuck.'
