After strengthening all the skills, there was still one more skill strengthening point left. The usage of this skill strengthening point made Jon a little uncertain.

Should he strengthen his Battle Aura Ice Sword or Triple Sword Ultimate?

The advantage of strengthening Battle Aura Ice Sword was that it could increase Jon’s damage to the greatest extent.

If Battle Aura Ice Sword’s power was originally 1, if it was strengthened, its damage would be 2, and after adding Triple Sword Ultimate, its damage would reach 6.

If the Triple Sword Ultimate were strengthened to Four Sword Ultimate, and the Battle Aura Ice Sword’s damage would still be 1, then the Four Sword Ultimate would only increase the damage to 4.

Therefore, to increase the maximum damage, the Battle Aura Ice Sword should be strengthened.

But if the Battle Aura Ice Sword was strengthened with Triple Sword Ultimate, there was another benefit. Triple Sword Ultimate could be strengthened to other skills, and the usage was more flexible.

“Strengthen my Battle Aura Ice Sword.”

In the end, Jon chose to strengthen his Battle Aura Ice Sword. Because he was in such a dangerous place, Jon felt that it was more reasonable to increase his maximum destructive power.

“Ding! Strengthening successful. Congratulations host for upgrading your Battle Aura Ice Sword to advanced level.”

The system’s notification sounded. Jon had successfully upgraded his battle Qi Polar Ice Sword to advanced level.

Whoosh!

Just as he finished strengthening it, he heard a piercing sound. Jon saw a bow and arrow flying towards him.

It was just an ordinary bow and arrow. Jon did not use any skills. He just waved his hand lightly and shot down the bow and arrow with the back of his hand.

Looking in the direction where the attack came from, he could not see the body. He could only see a pair of scarlet eyes looking in his direction.

The virtual screen made a note for that thing:

Berserk demon, level 23 elite level.

Description: A frenzied demon, after abandoning its rationality, its combat strength will become even stronger.

“Ice Snipe!”

Jon made a bow and nocked an arrow, a silver-white pure energy bow and arrow appeared in Jon’s hands.

Dang!

The sound of the bow being shot rang out, and an arrow that flickered with a silver-white cold light flew towards the berserk demon.

The silvery-white arrow hit the berserk demon and it died on the spot.

However, something unexpected happened. After the scarlet eyes closed, more than ten eyes opened one after another in the darkness.

It was as if the arrow had woken them up from their sweet dreams. They let out an angry and painful roar as they rushed towards Jon noisily.

“Battle Aura Storm Toss!”

Jon was currently level 22, and these scarlet eyes were also at level 23 or 24. They could not withstand a single blow from Jon.

Therefore, with a single Battle Aura Storm Throw, all the opponents were instantly killed.

‘Ding! Mission completed. Level 23 berserk demon killed. Level fragment + 500 obtained. Successfully extracted battle aura advanced fragment + 20 from target’s body!’

‘Ding! Mission completed. Level 21 berserk demon killed. Level fragment obtained + 300. Successfully extracted battle aura advanced fragment + 10 from target’s body!’

…

‘Ding! Mission completed. Level 22 berserk demon killed. Level fragment obtained + 400. Successfully extracted battle aura advanced fragment + 20 from target’s body!’

A series of system notifications rang out. All berserk demons had died.

Jon patted Iris on the shoulder. When the berserk demons had suddenly appeared, she had been hiding behind Jon like a mouse seeing a cat. Now that the danger had been averted, Jon gestured for her not to be afraid.

Jon and Iris continued to move forward. After about half an hour, they arrived at an open space. The light here was better than in the cave just now.

Suddenly, the words on the virtual screen changed and marked the creature that was sitting on the chair-like thing in front of them:

Demon leader, level 42 quasi-lord.

Description: a high-ranking demon who rules over a demon tribe. Possesses a large amount of mad demon power and is very powerful.

He was a quasi-lord of the same level as Jon, and his level was 20 levels higher than Jon’s.

Although Jon had yet to make a move, Jon knew that he was being targeted. It had already locked onto Jon with mana.

Jon knew that it was impossible for him to escape now, but he was not afraid at all. Instead, he was filled with fighting spirit!

So what if he was 20 levels higher than Jon? He had the two-time strengthened Battle Aura Ice Sword in his hands, as well as Triple Sword Ultimate and a set of skills with different uses. He would not be afraid even if they fought.

“Iris, go back and find a place to hide.”

Jon first told Iris to protect him, then summoned the high-level Battle Aura Ice Sword.

After being strengthened to the high-level, Jon didn’t have the time to test the power of the Ice Sword. Therefore, when he summoned it, Jon was surprised and shocked by his own sword!

The moment he summoned the two-meter-long ice crystal giant sword, it was as if winter had been taken out of the armory. An indescribable cold air was released from the sword, covering the entire cave with a layer of solid ice. The wind and snow surged all the way to the ground, when the cave was collapsed, the entire demon camp was turned into an ice sculpture village.

The demon leader suddenly opened its eyes from its seat. It stomped on the ground and shattered the ice layer. Then, its body instantly rushed towards 100 meters towards Jon with a punch.

Jon blocked it with his sword. When the demon leader hit the Battle Aura r Ice Sword, Jon almost lost his balance and fell to the ground. However, he still managed to block the punch.

“Ice Spirit Attack!”

Jon wanted to test whether the Ice Spirit Attack was effective on the demon leader. This would affect the subsequent tactics.

Just like when he was fighting the troll, although it was only for a short period of time, the demon leader was still temporarily stunned.

It was good that it was effective!

“Ice Whirl!”

Jon used his teleportation skill to escape from the brute force of the demon leader. He moved behind the demon leader and slashed the Ice Sword at its back.

PFFT!

To Jon’s surprise, the demon leader’s body was actually not as tough as the troll. After being strengthened, the high-level Battle Aura Ice Sword directly cut through the demon leader’s body. The blade was so deep that it was almost cut into two.

However, what was unusual was that it was not like the previous time when the demon leader was cut open and blood was flowing everywhere. Instead, it was like using a stick to swing at a swarm of flies. The swarm of flies only split into two groups for a short while before quickly regrouping together again.

The demon leader’s body recovered as if nothing had happened.

Jon immediately felt that it was very tricky. What was going on? Could it be that the cut didn’t have any real effect on it?

“Frozen Point Fist!”

Jon rushed over and punched at it. The demon leader didn’t show any weakness and punched back.

Crack!

A piece of solid ice formed behind the demon leader’s back while Jon was sent flying by the force.

Jon slid dozens of meters on the ground, and his right hand was deformed by the punch just now.

The super self-healing ability inherited from the water fairy quickly healed the wound on Jon’s right hand, and the elemental power was being consumed at a crazy rate.
