After a short breath adjustment, the condition of the five God-level experts basically recovered. War God O'Brien stood up first and cast a sharp gaze on the slowly rotating black vortex on Bone Altar.
"Let's go." He said concisely and concisely, and red flames rose up all over his body again, shooting into the vortex first.
High Priestess Catherine, Dylan, Cesar followed closely. Lin Qin took a deep breath, suppressed the waves in his heart caused by the realization just now, and stepped in with the khaki divine power flowing around his body.
The feeling of space transformation was more intense than before when entering the twelfth floor, even causing a slight dizziness. When the vision was clear, a strong and irreversible aura of decay and death hit my face, accompanied by the sound of bone grinding that made people feel sour.
What they were in was no longer an open Gobi desert, but an extremely wide, seemingly endless corridor. The walls on both sides of the corridor, as well as the ceiling-less dome, were made of countless pale bones piled and extruded, some humanoid, some animal-shaped, and many bones with weird and unrecognizable shapes. In the hollows of the eye sockets of these skeletons, there was a faint green phosphorus fire flickering, making the entire corridor look ghostly.
The "ground" under your feet is also paved with layers of bones. When you step on it, it makes a "click-click" cracking sound, which is soft and disturbing.
"It's so full of death." High Priestess Catherine frowned slightly. The green light of life around her was particularly eye-catching in this environment, but it also attracted the attention of more phosphorus fires in the surrounding skeleton walls. Those phosphorus fires were jumping around, as if they were spying with malicious intent.
"Be careful, there is something wrong with these bones." Cesar whispered, his figure looking a little blurry under the uncertain light of phosphorus.
Before he finished speaking, a sudden change occurred!
"Crack! Crack! Crack!"
The skeleton walls on both sides of the corridor and in front of it shook violently. Countless bones seemed to be controlled by invisible forces and were quickly combined and spliced. In the blink of an eye, dozens of Skeleton Warriors were formed holding various bone weapons. These Skeleton Warriors were slightly smaller than the rock giants on the twelfth floor., but the bones all over the body are crystal clear, shining with a metallic luster, the eyes are burning with blue Soul Fire, and the aura has reached the Lowgod level! Although it is just the feeling of entering Lowgod for the first time, the number is so large that it is enough to make one's scalp numb.
What is even more heart-stopping is that deep in the corridor, three exceptionally tall skeletons slowly "stand" up. Their bodies are not made up of messy bones, but the remains of some kind of complete mythical beast, exuding an oppressive pressure. The one in the middle is shaped like a giant ape, with dark golden bones; the one on the left is shaped like a giant bird, with a wingspan of white bones; the one on the right is like a lizard, with a long tail dragging the ground. The bones are glowing with Black Iron color. In the eye sockets of these three mythical beast skeletons, deep purple Soul Fire is burning. The energy fluctuations far exceed those of the ordinary Skeleton Warrior around them. They have reached the peak of Lowgod, and contain a unique atmosphere of law. Obviously, each of them has mastered different mysteries.
"We're in big trouble." Cesar smacked his lips, and the usual amusement on his face subsided.
War God O'Brien's eyes were solemn. "We can't be trapped here, we must rush over! Catherine and I will open the way, Dylan, Cesar, Lin Qin, you block both sides and the back, the target is the door at the end of the corridor!" He pointed to the end of the skeleton corridor in the distance, a looming door Bone Gate, which was blocked by countless huge ribs.
"Roar!"
The Dark Gold Giant Ape Skeleton let out a silent soul roar and launched the attack first. Its huge bone fist was clenched tightly, and dark golden light condensed on the fist bones. With a heavy and overwhelming artistic conception, it punched War God in the front from the air! Wherever the wind of the fist passed, the space was slightly distorted, and a deep ravine was opened on the skeletal ground along the way.
"Power!" Lin Qin's eyes focused. What Giant Ape Skeleton used was the power of the earth that he had been comprehending!
War God O'Brien shouted loudly and pushed his palms forward. The red Fire Divine Power surged out and turned into a huge flame shield. Complex flame patterns were flowing on the shield, trying to resist it.
"Boom--!"
The dark gold fist hit the flame shield hard. The flame shield trembled violently, and after only supporting it for a moment, it exploded! War God grunted, retreated violently, and a trace of golden blood spilled from the corner of his mouth. He obviously suffered a loss. His flame mystery seems to be slightly inferior to Mysteries of Power of Giant Ape Skeleton in terms of grade.
Almost at the same time, Forest White Giant Bird Skeleton flapped its wings, and countless pale wind blades with sharp and tearing characteristics poured down like a torrential rain, covering everyone. Black Iron Lizard Skeleton opened its mouth and spat out a breath as black as ink. Wherever the breath passed, even the space seemed to be corroded, making a "chichi" sound, which contained extremely strong corrosive power of death.
High Priestess Catherine immediately waved the cane, and the soft green life brilliance expanded, forming a huge light mask, covering everyone inside.
"Puff puff puff----"
The dense wind blades cut into the life mask, causing ripples all over the sky. The mask flickered violently and was on the verge of collapse.
The black Death Breath that followed was corroding the mask like strong acid, and the green and black energy offset wildly, making a tooth-searing sound. High Priestess's face turned pale, and the consumption of divine power to maintain the mask increased sharply.
"You can't passively defend!" Dylan shouted coldly, and his figure skyrocketed, revealing some of the characteristics of the divine beast again, and rushed towards Giant Bird Skeleton who released the wind blade. Cesar's figure differentiated, and several phantoms appeared at the same time, harassing,
Contain the lizard skeleton that breathes the breath of death and try to find its core.
Lin Qin did not choose to deal with the three strongest mythical beast skeletons. His target was the ordinary Skeleton Warrior that came like a tide. These Skeleton Warrior were not strong individually, but there were too many of them. Once they formed an encirclement, the consequences would be disastrous.
"Buzz"
Lin Qin has his feet on the ground - even though it is paved with bones, it is still connected to Laws of the Earth. He waves his fists, and every punch moves Pulsation of the earth. Invisible shock waves are centered on him, such as It spread like water ripples in all directions. The few Skeleton Warriors that rushed forward were affected by this high-frequency shock wave, and their hard bone surfaces were instantly covered with cracks. Then they fell apart with a "crash", and the Soul Fires in their eye sockets were also extinguished.
However, more Skeleton Warriors surged forward without fear of death. They wielded bone knives and bone swords and slashed with attacks containing Death Divine Powers.
Lin Qin's eyes were calm, and he used the "Pulsation" mysterious skills to the extreme. He no longer pursued large-scale shocks, but concentrated the power of shocks on his fists and feet. With every punch and every kick he landed on Skeleton Warrior, the shock force penetrated directly into his bones, accurately shattering his core skull where Soul Fire was located.
"Crack!" "Pfft!"
The sound of cracking bones and the sound of Soul Fire being extinguished can be heard endlessly. Lin Qin is like a tireless rock, firmly guarding one side of the team, defeating all Skeleton Warrior who try to get closer. His movements are simple and high-speed. Effectively, without a trace of excess, he has reached the peak of power control. With a body comparable to Lowgod Artifact, he can ignore most of Skeleton Warrior's attacks. Occasionally, if a fish slips through the net and cuts on him, it can only splash out a few sparks, leaving light white marks.
But this fight also consumed a huge amount of his divine power. The number of skeletons seemed endless.
Ahead, the battle became more intense.
War God O'Brien went head-to-head with that Dark Gold Giant Ape Skeleton several times, each time being shocked to the point of blood boiling. If High Priestess's Life Divine Power hadn't been constantly healing and blessing him, he would have been seriously injured. Although his fire attack was violent, it seemed a little weak in front of the opponent Mysteries of Power, who was more superior.
The battle between Dylan and Forest White Giant Bird Skeleton was a contest of speed and sharpness. Dylan relied on its strong body and strange body skills to constantly try to get close, while Giant Bird Skeleton relied on its flexible wings and tearing wind blades to maneuver remotely, and the stalemate was reached for a while.
Cesar is the most thrilling. His Shadow Clone Technique seems to have compromised the effect of Black Iron Lizard Skeleton. Death Breath has range corrosion and soul erosion effects, making it difficult for his phantom to last. He can only rely on his superior speed to continuously dodge and occasionally find openings to attack, but it is difficult to cause effective damage.
"This can't go on like this!" High Priestess Catherine's voice had a hint of urgency. The life-saving mask resisted the long-range attacks of the two mythical beast skeletons, causing her divine power to be consumed very quickly, and the mask had become thin.
War God O'Brien's eyes flashed with determination. "Catherine, help me!"
He no longer fought head-on with Giant Ape Skeleton, and retreated quickly. At the same time, he formed seals with his hands, and the red flames around his body compressed crazily inward. A breath of Destruction's nature began to brew. He actually wanted to use powerful forbidden moves that consume his source at any cost!
High Priestess Catherine understood, gritted his teeth and poured most of Life Divine Power into War God's body to help him stabilize and activate the violent flame energy. This made the life mask instantly dim and almost shattered.
"Roar!" Dark Gold Giant Ape Skeleton seemed to be aware of the danger and rushed towards him with a roar. The huge bone fist once again condensed the dark gold light and was about to interrupt War God.
At this critical moment!
Lin Qin, who had been defensive calmly, suddenly locked his eyes on the charging Dark Gold Giant Ape Skeleton. After observing for so long, he finally caught a fleeting opportunity - Giant Ape Skeleton was about to die. Most of the strength and attention were concentrated on attacking War God. In its own protection, there was an extremely subtle stagnation point caused by the operation of power, right in the middle of its chest, under the thickest dark gold sternum!
Without hesitation, Lin Qin stepped hard, and the khaki divine power all over his body vibrated violently in an unprecedented way. His whole body seemed to turn into a high-speed trembling khaki arrow, ignoring Skeleton Warrior who tried to block him along the way, directly smashing seven or eight skeletons, and in an almost barbaric way, he forcibly opened up a short passage and shot directly at Giant Ape Skeleton!
"Pulsation Shuttle!"
This is his attempt to use "Earth Pulsation" not only for attacks, but also for body movements! His speed instantly explodes to the extreme!
Giant Ape Skeleton noticed the attack from the side and rear, but the attack had already been launched and it was difficult to completely retract it. He could only reluctantly turn sideways and wave his left arm bone across the way, trying to knock Lin Qin away.
However, Lin Qin's target is not its arm at all!
The moment before being swept by the bone arm, Lin Qin's figure used a counterintuitive method, relying on the power of high-frequency vibrations around him, to complete a tiny refraction in mid-air, narrowly avoiding the sweep, and at the same time, his right fist was like Rotating and thrusting out like a drill, above the fist, the khaki divine power was highly condensed. It not only contained the high-frequency vibration of "Pulsation", but also incorporated the true meaning of "power condensation" that he had just realized by observing the opponent's power movement during the battle!
"Broken!"
A low shout!
"Pfft!"
The rotating and vibrating fist struck the power stagnation point on Giant Ape Skeleton's chest with incomparable precision! The high-frequency vibration first destroyed the defensive structure of its external skeleton, and then, the true meaning of power that was condensed to the extreme penetrated into it like a sharp needle!
"Crack----boom!"
On the thick dark golden sternum, a fist mark first appeared, and then the cracks spread like a spider web, and finally a hole exploded! Hidden behind the sternum, a fiercely burning dark purple Soul Fire was exposed!
Soul Fire suffered heavy injuries, and Giant Ape Skeleton's forward momentum came to an abrupt halt, letting out a shrill soul wail, its huge body swaying, and its movements becoming stiff and slow.
"Good opportunity!" War God O'Brien's eyes flashed with light, and the forbidden move he had been planning for a long time was finally completed!
"Heaven-Burning Strike!"
He pushed his palms forward violently, and a line of red fire, which was only as thick as his thumbs but was condensed to the extreme and almost black in color, shot directly into the hole in Giant Ape Skeleton's chest that was opened by Lin Qin like teleportation, accurately hitting the injured deep purple Soul Fire!
"Z-boom!"
Extreme heat and Destruction exploded inside! Giant Ape Skeleton's wailing stopped abruptly, and the huge dark golden skeleton instantly turned red, and then like burnt charcoal, it shattered inch by inch and turned into flying ash! Only a few fragments of the hardest dark golden bone and the dark purple soul fire that was already dimmed and almost extinguished fell down.
After getting rid of the strongest Giant Ape Skeleton, the pressure dropped sharply.
Dylan took advantage of the situation and broke out, resisting several wind blades from Giant Bird Skeleton, forcing himself close, his claws lingering in Destruction's gray light, ruthlessly tearing at the joint of Giant Bird Skeleton's wing roots!
"Tear!" A huge bone wing was torn off! Giant Bird Skeleton was out of balance, and Dylan gained the upper hand. The innate magical power "Heaven Swallower" was activated again. Although the range was much smaller, it still swallowed up the injured Giant Bird Skeleton together with its Soul Fire.
Over at Cesar, the pressure was greatly reduced and he finally found an opportunity. His true body appeared above Black Iron Lizard Skeleton like a ghost. The black dagger, with a strange wave that specifically destroyed the energy structure, pierced into the gap in his skull. The lizard skeleton's Death Breath was interrupted momentarily, its movements became stiff, and it was hit several times by Cesar, eventually breaking it into a pile of broken bones.
The remaining ordinary Skeleton Warrior, after the three-headed beast skeletons were destroyed, seemed to have lost their command and became chaotic. Although they still attacked, the threat was greatly reduced. Five people joined forces and spent a lot of effort to finally clean them up.
When the last skeleton fell apart, deathly silence temporarily returned to the corridor.
War God O'Brien and High Priestess Catherine staggered almost at the same time, his face as pale as paper. War God used too much divine power and mind, and even used forbidden moves that damaged the source. High Priestess, in order to maintain the mask and assist War God, almost exhausted his divine power.
Cesar and Dylan also had unstable breaths and injuries on their bodies. It was obvious that the battle just now was not easy.
Lin Qin Although he consumes a lot of divine power and has a few shallow marks on his body, he is in relatively good condition. His strong body and precise and efficient fighting method allow him to retain more strength.
"Thirteenth Floor----It's really dangerous." War God gasped, looking at the scattered bones on the ground with lingering fear. If Lin Qin's extremely precise blow at the critical moment broke through Giant Ape Skeleton's defense, they might have fallen here.
High Priestess nodded weakly. "O'Brien and I - our divine power has been exhausted, our bodies have been damaged, and we need a long period of meditation to recover. Fourteenth Floor - we can't go."
There was a hint of helplessness and unwillingness in her tone. Graveyard of the Gods Opportunities are rare, but life is more important.
War God was silent for a moment and looked at Dylan, Cesar and Lin Qin: "Next, I can only rely on you three."
Dylan snorted coldly, which was regarded as acquiescence. Cesar shrugged. "No problem, anyway, follow brother Lin Qin and Dylan, safety is guaranteed."
Lin Qin did not speak, his eyes swept across the battlefield, walked to the place where Giant Ape Skeleton disappeared, and picked up the few dark gold bone fragments. The bone fragments were heavy to buy, containing pure earth energy, and were excellent materials for refining weapons.
Among the remains of two other mythical beast skeletons, he found several Crystal Bone Spike containing Wind Element Profound Mystery of Rending, as well as a fragment of a lizard skull that was eroded by death but was still hard.
In addition, when cleaning up the wreckage of ordinary Skeleton Warrior, they also found several pieces of Lowgod Artifact that were not too seriously damaged and were still usable, a half-broken bone sword, a bone shield full of cracks, and a pair of bone claws that exuded a ghostly light.
The harvest is not huge, but at least I am not empty-handed.
"Let's rest here." Lin Qin said, "Fourteenth Floor's situation is unknown. If you enter in a bad condition, you will die. We also need to digest the gains from this battle."
His proposal was approved. After two fierce battles in a row, especially the danger of Thirteenth Floor, everyone was wary. It was indeed unwise to rush into the more dangerous Fourteenth Floor.
The five people found a relatively flat place in front of the huge rib Bone Gate at the end of the corridor filled with bones, set up a simple warning barrier, and began to adjust their breaths and recover.
War God and High Priestess directly entered deep meditation to repair their divine bodies and restore their divine power. Dylan and Cesar also took the time to heal their injuries and replenish their consumption.
Lin Qin sat down and began to carefully comprehend the "power" he had sensed in the previous battle. The corridor once again fell into a dead silence, with only the occasional faint whimpering sound coming from deep within the walls of bones, reminding them that this place was still full of dangers.
The exploration to Fourteenth Floor can only be put on hold for the time being. They need time to lick their wounds and digest the gains to face the more severe challenges that may come next.
