MMO: Pierce Heaven Til' It Breaks

Panda Novel

“Shoot, c’mon shoot… That’s right, like that. Carry on…”

Li Yi brought Jiaojiao to Curse land for a shootout, taking Cursing Disciples out one by one from afar.

Because Jiaojiao’s ATK was horribly low, to circumvent this Li Yi presented her with 5,000 Intermediate-Level Flame Arrows to increase her damage.

They were done clearing all possible dungeons and were now utilizing the remaining time to level up in the wild. Jiaojiao’s level skyrocketed to Level 33 in less than 10 days.

“Another 7 Levels before I graduate. How tiring.”

“Thinking of graduation already? It’s too early to think about that. Not everyone can switch to Black Paladin class you know,” Li Yi burst her bubble.

“If I can’t switch to Black Paladin, I’ll burst open your assh*ole!” Jiaojiao gave Li Yi the middle finger.

Li Yi was rendered speechless…

“Wait for me here. The black and white bosses will respawn up ahead. Time to complete a quest.”

Li Yi wore his Cursing Sect Outfit and walked up to the Cursed Altar.

Jiaojiao shared the Curse Book quest with him but apart from her equipment and items that would still remain after the class-switching, everything else would disappear. So in Li Yi’s words, there was no point in getting on with it.

Li Yi did not neglect his leveling even though he carried Jiaojiao to level daily. The Castellan’s privileges landed him with more EXP than others when he completed quests. Although it was not as fast as him leveling himself, it was still faster than the leveling speed of regular players.

Of course, it could not be compared to the maniac Lonely Semi City, but still, it was not a cause for worry. Lonely Semi City was currently at Level 56 while he was almost at Level 61. Even if he did not level up for a month, Lonely Semi City would not catch up to him.

Cursing Sect’s Reputation was now at Respectful. Not only were the quest distributed by the black and white bosses now more varied, but even the rare Elites within the area had also started to distribute quest to him.

The higher the Reputation Value, the more the benefits.

The quest from Evil God’s Deeds was almost completed. Upon arrival, the black and white bosses would lecture him about the long history of the Evil God. It would not be long before he would receive the next step in the quest.

Dressed up in the Cursing Sect Outfit, Li Yi was able to complete the quest with ease, especially since he was labeled as a Rare Elite member of the group. When he returned, he did not find Jiaojiao at the spot.

“Where are you? Where did you go?” Li Yi sent Jiaojiao a message.

“A fella on a white horse ambushed me, I’m going after him!” Jiaojiao answered in a huff.

“A fella on a white horse? A player?” Li Yi was at a loss.

Jiaojiao did not answer for long time. Just as Li Yi was running out of patience, she replied, “He’s spawn camping me. The coordinates are 12345:44566. Come save me, sob sob…”

Li Yi, “…”

They had been minding their own business and grinding levels these past few days, where did this fella on a white horse come from?

Li Yi got onto Crimson Tiger King and rushed to the coordinates.

Once at the location, Li Yi found Jiaojiao playing dead on the ground. Standing by her body was a Dwarf player with a hammer clasped in each hand ready to pounce if she were to stand up. He was spawn camping her.

“Chain Arrow Skill! Eliminate!”

Li Yi let loose three arrows simultaneously and took down the Dwarf player in an instant.

Eliminate was a force to be reckoned with. This legendary skill was a Controlled Burst Skill type. It could be shot flat out or paired with other skills. When Li Yi fired Chain Arrow Skill, he paired with Eliminate to form a trio-arrow attack.

Li Yi shot a series of questions when Jiaojiao returned from running her corpse, “What happened? Why is he camping you?”

Jiaojiao wasn’t sure either, She shook her head saying, “I don’t know. He shouted and asked if I was Invincible Jiaojiao. To which I answered yes, and that’s when he started attacking me after calling me a wh*re.”

Li Yi sized up the Dwarf player on the ground and asked, “Why did you kill her?”

“B*tch’s an eyesore!” The Dwarf player’s response almost had Li Yi fuming.

“That’s all? Great, you’re an eyesore too. Spawn camp!”

“You think I’m afraid of you? Apart from cheating while I was drunk, I, Enemy Tank Lo have never been afraid of anything.”

Dwarf player, Enemy Tank Lo coldly snorted in disdain. He erected his corpse and Charged at Jiaojiao.

“Pfft!” Li Yi lifted his arm to fire another shot, knocking him down again.

It was not long when Enemy Tank Lo got up from the ground again and still Charged at Jiaojiao, completely ignoring Li Yi. Judging by his stance, he would not stop until he had taken down Jiaojiao.

Once, twice… After five times, Enemy Tank Lo’s corpse disappeared from the ground and was teleported to the nearby temple.

Li Yi did not proceed to chase after him there as there was something fishy about the matter. He was clearly going after Jiaojiao but Jiaojiao had not been online for a few months now. Where did this enemy pop up from?

He must have mistaken her for someone else. He had dropped a few levels by now and also dropped four pieces of equipment. It was best to let the matter rest…

Li Yi was prepared to let it go but the following sequence of events caught him off guard.

Enemy Tank Lo had actually returned and without pause, he rapidly charged towards Jiaojiao.

Li Yi was infuriated.

“If you pester us any further, you’ll never see daylight ever again!”

“Come if you have balls. I, Enemy tank Lo am not afraid!”

This fella really was stubborn. He kept resurrecting and was like a cockroach that would not go away. Getting up, dropping dead, getting up, dropping dead…

“You maniac! I don’t even know you. Stop hitting me or I’ll f*ck your daddy’s balls!”

Jiaojiao was enraged by now too. She took cover at the side and positioned her bow. As soon as he got up, she would launch a shot and easily took him down without the help of Li Yi.

Enemy Tank Lo’s level was not even 40. Li Yi could commit an instant kill on him. Jiaojiao was still lacking but could still instantly kill him if his HP was low.

Enemy Tank Lo took the fall once again and dropped his double hammers. This time, he did not get up.

“B*tch, I hate you. Scum wh*re, b*tch!” Enemy Tank Lo cussed while lying on the ground.

“Turn off your sound, Jiaojiao, and get on with killing him. I’ll call a few over to spawn camp,” He pissed Li Yi off. This Enemy Tank Lo was without a doubt, a psycho. Not only did he ambush without reason, but he was also now cussing at Jiaojiao.

“You’re lower than Scumbag Wang!” Li Yi returned the favor. At least Scumbag Wang would ambush for a reason.

“Did Jiaojiao offend you? She hasn’t been online for months. I don’t believe you have crossed paths. Killing her out of the blue is one thing but what’s with your filthy mouth? You must think lightly of Little Drunk Cat. Let me teach you a lesson.”

Li Yi launched a tongue-lashing at Enemy Tank Lo.

“I don’t blame you for killing me nor will I seek you out for revenge. But I hate this wh*re!” Enemy Tank Lo gritted his teeth.

Jiaojiao let out a shriek, “You better make it clear. Who’s the wh*re? I’m not letting you off the hook if you don’t explain yourself!”

Who wouldn’t be agitated when encountering such matters while grinding levels?

Enemy Tank Lo lay on the ground without uttering a word. Li Yi was about to call on more people when he spat out, “You stole my boyfriend.”

Jiaojiao’s mouth fell wide open. So did Li Yi’s mouth. They stared at Enemy Tank Lo in disbelief.

“You stole my boyfriend, you wh*re!” Enemy Tank Lo started to wail as he continued talking.

Li Yi pointed, “Jiaojiao, you…”

Jiaojiao glared at him, “You, you, your balls! You’re the only male friend I know. Why would I steal… Ew… Goosebumps!”

“It’s all because of you!” Enemy Tank Lo howled at Jiaojiao and wailed, “I was doing fine with my boyfriend until he saw your photo from somewhere. He then started to ignore me and called me a b*tch. He told me to scram… Sob sob sob sob…”

Enemy Tank Lo became hot with emotions and began crying like a baby.

Li Yi’s brows were tied in a knot as he threw a question, “Cough, your boyfriend? Aren’t you a guy?”

Enemy Tank Lo was furious, “Of course i’m a guy. What? You’re looking down on gays? I really hate you heterosexuals. Just the thought of it grosses me out.”

“I get it…”

Li Yi and Jiaojiao exchange glances and read each other’s mind.

“Jiaojiao, what a charm you have there…”

“Scram! I really wanna die…”

Enemy Tank Lo cried, “My boyfriend fell head over heels for you, seductress. He said something about happily dying if he’s able to just touch your hands. I, sob sob sob… I gave my virginity to him yet he treated me this way… If it isn’t your fault then whose fault is it?”

“Ahhhh— Arghhhh!”

Jiaojiao tugged on her sleeve in anger and lunged towards Li Yi to bite him out of spite. Li Yi quickly initiated a Fiery Impact to get away.

“Deep breaths… Calm down, Jiaojiao, calm down… You’re invincible. You must keep your cool…”

Jiaojiao tried her best to keep her head leveled and took a few deep breaths to suppress the anger.

“What’s the name of your boyfriend? Speak!”

“I will never tell you, wh*re! Don’t you even think about seducing my man!” Yelled Enemy Tank Lo.

“Motherf*cker, motherf*cker, I’m losing it. F*ck f*ck f*ck! I’m not interested in gays, you hear me!”

With Enemy Tank Lo’s lips sealed, Jiaojiao could do nothing other than to send a message on world channel, “Who’s Enemy Tank Lo’s boyfriend? Step up!”

Ding!

“… Miss Jiaojiao, you… you know Enemy Tank Lo?”

Jiaojiao received a PM after yelling on world channel. It was from a guy named Dream Pen Huang.

Jiaojiao asked, “You’re Enemy Tank Lo’s boyfriend?”

“I was but now I’m not. Miss Jiaojiao, I saw your photo from the web and ever since then, I’ve been thinking of nothing but you…”

Dream Pen Huang expressed his admiration for Jiaojiao and finally sent a photograph of himself. He was a nerdy spectacle man.

“I don’t fancy you at all. You can fall for anyone but me. Ew, goosebumps. Enemy Tank Lo’s devoted to you, you better not let him down!”

“Miss Jiaojiao…”

“Scram your daddy’s balls! One more word and I’ll report you!”

Jiaojiao immediately blacklisted Dream Pen Huang.

“Alright now, I have informed your boyfriend. You both are free to do whatever but remember, don’t talk about me. F*ck f*ck f*ck, you really gross me out. I don’t have the mood to play now.”

Jiaojiao went offline in a huff without saying a word to Li Yi.

“Go after your true love and don’t ever bother Jiaojiao, or else… you’ll be hunted down by Little Drunk Cat’s ten thousand men!”

Li Yi left a warning to Enemy Tank Lo before riding away on Crimson Tiger King.

“Sob sob sob…” Enemy Tank Lo cried uncontrollably.

…

“Jiaojiao, earlier…”

Beep…

“Jiaojiao, don’t hang up!”

Beep…

Li Yi called three times and in that three times, Jiaojiao answered and immediately hung up. It was obvious she was still raging.

Boom boom boom boom!

Loud music was playing upstairs. This must be Jiaojiao unleashing her anger…

Li Yi ran upstairs and kicked the door viciously, yelling, “Stupid b*tch, may your flabs never go away!”

Li Yi swiftly ran back home before Jiaojiao could open the door.

The door creaked open and Jiaojiao peeked through the opening with her face covered in cucumber. She swore, “Don’t let me catch you next time, the bastard who kicked the door! I swear I will stomp on your d*ck!”

…

Li Yi went back online. He was still at Curse Land.

Since Jiaojiao was throwing tantrums and refused to come online, Li Yi had the time to kill the black and white bosses.

Each time before engaging the black and white bosses, he would first put on the Cursing Sect Outfit. This, to Li Yi was a resource that should never be wasted.

With Violent Bear King pulling one, Li Yi kited the other and killed both after keeping vigilant watch on these two bosses’ HP. The black and white bosses posed no threat to him any longer.

“The glory of Evil God will shine on the world…”

“Our master will return!”

The black and white bosses gave their last words before landing on Li Yi’s feet.

Li Yi rubbed his hands in anticipation before going ahead to loot.

Since the opening of the game, the respawn of the black and white boss was all for Li Yi. Up to now, only he could defeat these bosses. All other players who challenged this stage ended up in tragedy.

“Ding!”

[Congratulations! You’ve obtained Hegemonic Body Potion Formula!]

At the sound of a crisp ring, a formula appeared in Li Yi’s hands.

“Finally, it’s out…” Li Yi let out a sigh.

It took quite a long time before it had finally appeared. Lady Luck had not blessed him before this…

[Hegemonic Body Potion: The Hegemonic Body prevents all abnormal states for 20 seconds. The casting of any skills will not be disrupted. Any damage received will be 1.25x of the normal value. Cooldown period: 5 minutes.]

Any attack would see an increase in damage but it ignored all abnormal state-causing skills as well as disrupting skills. Apart from death, no one could stop the skill from being unleashed.

The black and white bosses were hard to handle but the items dropped were lucrative treasures. Hegemonic Body was one of them.

A purple-colored Curse Land Teleportation Stone, a Cursed Short Sword able to activate three abnormal states, and a Cursed Staff with 50% curse spell damage. These were all drops from the two bosses.

It was a shame that it took Li Yi more than half a year before he feasted his eyes on these items.

Hegemonic Body Potion Formula was a rare sight, so was its production. The materials to produce it were extremely expensive but as long as there was a finished product, this item could turn tables at crucial moments.

Dark Wizards could learn a spell that was part of the Forbidden Spell series called Major Extinction. It would create a compressed black hole that explodes, wiping out all targets within a 500-yard radius and extinguishing everything in its path of destruction. Basically, one move and the enemy was wiped out. However, the spell had one major flaw, the cast time was a full 30 seconds which gave a lot of room to be interrupted; the Hegemonic Body Potion would change this, allowing the Wizard to complete the spell and unleashing its full destructive potential.

Dark Wizards could first consume a Hegemonic Body Potion prior to using Major Extinction. When in Hegemonic Body state, healers were to heal like crazy and before the Hegemonic Body effect was gone, a Paladin class could cast a Hand of Protection for 8 seconds of invincibility.

This way, there would be a total of 28 uninterrupted seconds. This skill with a uselessly long channeling period was now a major situation-reversal move.

Li Yi had long readied all materials to create Hegemonic Body Potion but still did not get his hands one of the main materials, Ancient Dragon’s Essence. This thing could only be obtained by killing a real Ancient-level dragon.

Of course, the degree of liberty in King of Pantheon was high. Even if he could not slay a dragon, Li Yi still knew a few other ways to obtain Ancient Dragon’s Essence.

Li Yi returned to Shattered Frost City and headed for Blade Peak.

The Blade Peak Arena was now a bustling scene of people. Li Yi discerned from the forums that at least ten thousand players had already collected over 2,000 Battlefield Points.

The participation rules in the early stages were simple. No matter the PK technique, as long as the time spent in the Arena was long enough, anyone could easily earn up to 2,000 points.

Accumulating over 2,000 Battlefield Points would earn them a Battlefield Newbie title. The road onwards would more difficult but going up by one level would have them enjoy newbie benefits. Their EXP would be diminished to half as punishment on the first death their character experienced each day.

This was only the start. As Battlefield Points increased to higher levels, not only would their EXP not be deducted upon death, drops of their equipment would lessen.

Entering the Blade Peak Arena, the surge of the crowd was a stark contrast from the desolated scene from a few days ago. There were several thousand hanging out at the site.

Li Yi signed up and stood in line for ages. Alas, there were no challengers fit for him once again. As he had time, he went to check out Augustus. It would be great if that old man could distribute a Hall of Fame quest. Even if he did not, he could still purchase some Universal Keys.

He sat on Ice Toad King and leaped up the steep walls of Blade Peak.

Each climb to the top was exhilarating. As he rode on Ice Toad King, leaping from mountain to mountain, Li Yi was filled with a sense of achievement.

“Blop blop blop blop blop blop blop blop blop blop!”

Li Yi managed to the top with ease after ten continuous leaps.

Augustus kept to his position of looking into the distance while Red Dragon Queen lay asleep by his feet. The scenery, remained as it was.

Augustus turned over and smiled at him, “What do you need?”

Li Yi was slightly disappointed. There was no yellow question mark on Augustus’ head. This meant that was yet to reach the requirement for him to distribute a Hall of Fame quest.

“Purchase Universal Keys!”

Universal Keys would spawn once every few days at Augustus’, in a bunch of 100 each time. Each spawn was still in numbers of 100 whether or not they were purchased.

Usually, after Li Yi indicated his intention to purchase, Augustus would gently smile and flick his fingers, and 100 pairs of Universal Keys would then appear in Li Yi’s backpack. Today was odd. Augustus shook his head and told him, “The 100 pairs of Universal Keys were bought by someone else.”

“Bought by someone else?” Li Yi was flabbergasted.
