Under everyone's watchful gaze, Kong Feiliu's strike, imbued with terrifying damage, poured entirely into Sikong Ming's body!

In an instant, Sikong Ming's health bar dropped by nearly 5%!

Then, at this speed, it continued to decrease!

"Did... did it work?"

"Such fierce damage!"

"We succeeded!"

Although it dealt only 5% damage per second to Sikong Ming, it was continuous and incessant!

In just over 20 seconds, Sikong Ming was sure to die!

And he, frozen by Zong Muxue, could only watch helplessly as he was frozen to death.

A few contestants couldn't help but cheer out loud!

Although this time they almost solely relied on the effect of Kong Feiliu's skill, they also contributed, and most importantly, they could leave the battlefield alive.

As for Qin Yi, at this moment, he directly cast the Punishment Technique to strike Sikong Ming.

He was unwilling to be just a supporter!

Even though his output against a Demon Monarch was utterly insignificant, did it stop him from using this as bragging rights?

I joined Kong Feiliu to slay a Demon Monarch!

Among so many present, who would dare to say it's fake?

Kong Feiliu merely glanced at Qin Yi, showing disdain in his eyes.

The people of the Church Court were known for claiming credit, something he'd heard about for a long time.

Among some High-level Professionals, the reputation of the Church Court people was quite mediocre, and he frequently heard his elders express disdain for them.

Qin Yi's behavior at this moment actually matched all his impressions of the Church Court.

However, it was hard for him to say anything...

No matter how top-tier his talent was, he couldn't avoid needing the Church Court's help in the future, so even though Qin Yi disgusted him, he could only keep it to himself.

However, just as everyone was elated, thinking they would succeed, a sudden change occurred!

"Why is it slowing down?"

"No! Our calculations weren't wrong! How could this happen?"

"Did we fail?"

"How come..."

In a matter of seconds, Sikong Ming's health bar slow marked visibly slowed down.

5%... 4%... 3%...

The damage was visibly decreasing!

According to Kong Feiliu, the 'Extreme Prison Deep Cold' skill should, once it hits, continuously drain the target's Life Value according to the initial damage, freezing them to death, shattering them into pieces.

The prerequisite for Kong Feiliu's plan to kill Sikong Ming was that his 'Extreme Prison Deep Cold' just needed to inflict more damage initially than Sikong Ming's Life Value naturally recovered to basically guarantee Sikong Ming's death.

Although it didn't achieve a one-hit kill, based on Sikong Ming's rapidly declining Life Value at the start, bursting his health might just take around 20 seconds...

However, this trend was directly broken now.

Kong Feiliu watched all of this, disbelief written on his face.

As long as the 'Extreme Prison Deep Cold' could initially inflict effective damage, unless it was dispelled, it was guaranteed to drain the target to death!

Why did it just fail now?

Within mere five to six seconds, he plummeted from the clouds to the abyss...

Just then, Kong Feiliu suddenly felt a chill surge from his heart.

"Help..."

He opened his mouth to call for help, but the next moment he was completely frozen, shattered into pieces.

On the other side, Qin Yi also suddenly spat blood, his entire body collapsed on the ground, clearly dead.

"Run!"

Yuan Danqing uttered a single word, turned into a shadow, and disappeared at lightning speed.

The others, momentarily stunned, immediately scattered.

With less than fifty seconds before Sikong Ming broke free from Zong Muxue's hard control, if they didn't flee, they'd follow in the footsteps of Kong Feiliu and Qin Yi.

Thus, after paying the price of two lives, the contestants' plan to kill the Demon Monarch completely failed.

...

Not far away, Lin Ye watched all this, nodding repeatedly.

To be honest, Kong Feiliu and the others performed well enough.

This set of deadly combos, if really landed on an unprepared Demon Monarch, might have been enough to take one down.

The only issue was that in this world, there's no such thing as an unprepared Demon Monarch-level enemy.

Lin Ye had also heard of the 'Extreme Prison Deep Cold' skill, a rather powerful skill.

The advantage of this skill wasn't in its instant burst damage but in providing continuous, steady damage until the target was completely frozen into ice.

Kong Feiliu's thinking wasn't flawed.

Even with his Level, even if he stacked 100 Spell Strength points and received numerous buffs from others, under Level Suppression, instantly killing a Demon Monarch was tremendously difficult.

So he chose the 'Extreme Prison Deep Cold' skill.

As long as a hit inflicted effective damage, the continuous damage would be a significant threat to a Demon Monarch.

Unfortunately...

He still failed.

The Demon Monarch wasn't a clueless Secret Realm BOSS; how could it be so easy to kill?

Watching the others scatter, Lin Ye knew it was time to act.

He stepped out, heading towards them.

The ones trying to escape, seeing Lin Ye suddenly appear, couldn't help but freeze.

"Just run! It's no use! Better to save a life for external rescue!" Ke Yue, however, stopped and offered some unsolicited advice.

"No worries, I know what I'm doing," Lin Ye said with a smile.

Hearing Lin Ye's words, Ke Yue looked displeased: "Fine if you won't listen to advice!"

Lin Ye ignored him, reaching out his hand.

"Clink!"

A crisp sound, a coin was flicked up by Lin Ye, spinning in the air, drawing a parabola before suspending in mid-air not far in front of Lin Ye.

The white side facing up!

With a flash of divine light in his eyes, Lin Ye saw through the immobilized Sikong Ming before him!

"Tsk... increasing resistance, spell reflection..."

Lin Ye saw the string of states on Sikong Ming and immediately understood why Kong Feiliu had failed.

Not to mention other various factors, just these two states being present meant it was impossible for anyone else on the battlefield to kill Sikong Ming.

Besides, even if you managed to kill Sikong Ming, you would suffer reflected damage and die.

The design of the Celestial Calamity Demon God was clearly meant to doom Lin Ye.

But, little did they anticipate that Lin Ye would possess the 'True Sight' ability!

After seeing through these, Lin Ye was no longer scared because the figure before him wasn't actually a Demon Monarch...

He stood there quietly, waiting.

The people who had been fleeing, seeing Lin Ye hadn't left, stopped and observed from a distance.

Even Yuan Danqing, the first to flee, turned back, hiding behind a rock, peeking out.

Confusion filled their eyes...
