Chapter 368: Chapter 75: Divine Gift: Authority! Permanent Poisoning! Ice Arrow! Title: Void Realm Annihilator

The battle unfolded just as Qin Feng had predicted. Defeating Void Envoy One was far less difficult than taking down the Evil Dragon Jinli, which had soared five hundred meters in the air. After just a few volleys, the Holy Empire’s army had wiped out most of its Blood Volume in an instant.

Of course, under normal circumstances, the opposite should have been true.

With its small, agile frame and full suit of armor, Void Envoy One should have been a much tougher opponent than the massive, slow-moving, and completely unarmored Evil Dragon Jinli.

But the strength of Qin Feng’s Holy Empire lay in its countless Undead Soldiers, who had no fear of sacrifice. They could use their own lives as a barrier, trapping Void Envoy One and completely cutting off its ability to maneuver or create distance.

And without the ability to Dodge, Void Envoy One’s Void Armor couldn’t possibly withstand the assault from innumerable Poison Arrows, and the Holy Empire’s army quickly shredded its Durability.

The remaining arrows peppered Void Envoy One’s body, each one applying another stack of Plague Poison. In an instant, millions of stacks of poison had accumulated—an assault no one could possibly survive.

’Monster...’

’What kind of monster is this...’

This absurd strategy completely shattered the Void Envoy’s morale.

What infuriated it even more was that the Undead Soldiers looked frail and should have been easy to kill, yet even when it hacked with all its might, it couldn’t take them down in a single blow.

On the contrary, these creatures could take three hits and keep coming, swarming it and completely blocking its paths to Dodge.

Ultimately, pinned down by the relentless and death-defying Undead Soldiers, Void Envoy One failed to break through the encirclement. It died a wretched death under the unending barrage of Plague Arrows from the Holy Empire’s army.

Just like with the Evil Dragon Jinli before it, Void Envoy One’s reward mechanism had a clear limitation: only the first kill granted a Divine Chosen reward and the opportunity to select an Authority. Even if one repeatedly killed the Void Envoy afterward, this reward could not be claimed again.

However, Qin Feng didn’t really care.

All that mattered was that he could farm the infinitely spawning Void Creatures and Void Bosses from Void Envoy One for all sorts of other rewards.

In the days that followed, Qin Feng’s course of action was very clear.

He led the Holy Empire’s army, continuing to purge the Void Realm of its various Void Creatures while looking for opportunities to put down Void Envoy One again each time it resurrected.

At the same time, Qin Feng was constantly calculating two crucial metrics: his army’s efficiency at clearing out Void Creatures and the rate at which Void Envoy One created new ones.

Only by precisely managing the balance between these two factors could he ensure he would successfully earn the "Void Guide" achievement in the final days of the event.

Of course, Qin Feng had another option.

He could use the Powers of Authority, Resurrection and Eye of the Hunter, to permanently annihilate Void Envoy One.

But in the end, he gave up on this plan.

There were three reasons.

First, the execution was too tedious. It would require Qin Feng to precisely calculate Void Envoy One’s Blood Volume while simultaneously calculating the poison-stacking speed of his army after their Plague Power Enchantment, all to ensure he could secure the final kill on the Void Envoy.

Second, the cost was too high. Activating the Resurrection Authority consumed 20% of his own Maximum Life Value each time.

Third, the basic requirements for the Void Guide achievement didn’t include "permanently kill the Void Envoy," so there was simply no reason for Qin Feng to go through all that trouble.

In comparison, killing Void Envoy One a final time and then clearing out the remaining Void Creatures as quickly as possible was undoubtedly the superior solution.

It wouldn’t consume Qin Feng’s Maximum Life Value, and the overall strategic calculations were much simpler, making it the most cost-effective plan for achieving the Void Guide.

As for why not use the Battlefield Duel Talent to directly solo kill the Void Envoy...

The reason was actually very simple.

Qin Feng couldn’t bear to let his subordinate, Yugudora, endure the risk of taking such a beating.

Before her Battlefield Duel Talent could trigger its Frenzy state, Yugudora’s own strength was simply no match for Void Envoy One.

The process of waiting for Frenzy to activate would be sheer agony for her. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

She would have no opportunity to counterattack and could only rely on her Blood Lock ability to tank the damage, struggling to endure a continuous, one-sided beating.

Only when she endured long enough for her Battlefield Duel Talent to enter its Frenzy state could she unleash a sudden, almost freakishly violent burst of damage and instantly annihilate Void Envoy One.

But this process—taking a grievous beating first just to counterattack later—was far too painful, and it wasn’t something Qin Feng was willing to put her through.

Besides, the Void Realm was teeming with vast numbers of Void Creatures that could be converted into an endless stream of Undead Soldiers using the Book of the Dead, an ability wielded by Arthas.

To Qin Feng, these Undead Soldiers were essentially cannon fodder. Sacrificing them was no great loss, so there was no reason to hesitate to use them as attrition units and force Yugudora to suffer instead.

In the end, with the absolute combat power of the Holy Empire’s army, bolstered by the powerful aura from Emperor Tingfeng—a buff that was the very definition of invincible—the second phase of Lord World came to a close two months later.

On the eve of the final Blood Moon, Qin Feng took the initiative and sought out Void Envoy One, which had long since grown timid. He gave it no chance to maneuver, ordering the Holy Empire’s army to focus their fire and instantly annihilate it.

After eliminating the great threat, Qin Feng immediately dispatched all the forces under his command to conduct a systematic sweep of the twelve previously designated zones.
