629: The Fall of Zuanfeng Patriarch

“Can’t kill them all! There’s no end to them!!!”

“Damn it! A bunch of zombies, how unlucky!”

“Go back to your coffins! Don’t touch me, what the hell!”

On the battlefield, the first wave of demons that rushed out of the gray mist had already been swallowed by the Undead Sea.

Brown bear demons, leopard demons, rat demons—those Monarch Tier monsters were all cut off by the endless Undead, forming small groups of two or three, surrounded by the Undead.

These Undead corpses couldn't cause serious damage to the demons and were extremely fragile, almost crumbling with a single blow, turning into bone fragments.

But… their numbers seemed infinite!?

Xiao Zuanfeng, holding a steel saber, fought back-to-back with a brown bear demon. The corpses piled up in front of him were almost forming a mountain. Heaven knew how many Undead they had cut down.

Yet, the Undead were tireless and endless.

Xiao Zuanfeng was so tired he felt like spitting blood, and the brown bear demon beside him was also panting heavily.

They wanted to fly up and break out of the encirclement;

But in the sky, there were not only skeletal lizards spitting frost but also a large number of specters with bat wings.

Once they took to the air, they would be besieged, then driven back to the ground, completely unable to break out.

At this moment, Xiao Zuanfeng had completely lost the excitement he had when he first rushed out of the gray mist.

He didn't want to eat any more “buffet.”

If this continued, he would be eaten by the “buffet”!

Thinking of this, he immediately abandoned the brown bear demon he was fighting alongside and transformed into a black wind, fleeing rapidly in the opposite direction.

“Hehe, these skeletons and zombies can’t do anything to my Old Ancestor Zuanfeng’s Divine Ability!”

Just as “Old Ancestor Zuanfeng” transformed into a black wind and weaved through the endless zombie sea, the pale blue soul fires in the skeletons’ eyes suddenly flared.

Before Old Ancestor Zuanfeng could react, the skeleton exploded!

Boom!

The huge impact directly knocked Old Ancestor Zuanfeng back into his original form, sending him crashing to the ground.

Good news: relying on his powerful Physical Body, Old Ancestor Zuanfeng withstood the damage, only feeling a sweetness in his chest and wanting to spit blood.

Bad news: the surrounding skeleton zombies, like the self-detonating skeleton, all had their soul fires flaring in their eyes and were all rushing towards him.

Old Ancestor Zuanfeng’s pupils contracted, and he thought—this is bad!

Boom boom boom!!!!

In an instant, the vast army of skeletons collectively self-destructed.

Countless explosion points simultaneously released energy, which, through Overlay, transformed into an even more violent shockwave.

For a moment, the earth trembled, and the sky shook.

The demons in the midst of the Undead Sea were instantly enveloped by huge smoke and flames, all of them suffering ruptured organs and bleeding from their seven orifices from the explosion.

Nearly ten thousand demons, including “Old Ancestor Zuanfeng,” all perished in this hundreds of thousands of “firecrackers.”

Duang!

Duang!

Duang!

On the southern city wall, Chen Moran, holding a bone staff, and the hundreds of Necromancers he led, were all bathed in brilliant golden light.

The previous wave of Corpse Explosion spells instantly annihilated nearly ten thousand demons.

Eleven times the experience brought a screen-filling stream of notifications to the Necromancers.

“This is awesome! I actually gained three Ranks!”

“I gained five Ranks!”

“I directly reached Monarch Tier!!!”

On the fortress wall, the Necromancers collectively “gao/chao.”

At their high Ranks, they were already in the “seed-planting” period, and gaining even one Rank was very difficult.

But now, experience points flowed into their bodies like a tide, allowing them to continuously Rank up!

And it wasn't just Ranking up… On the smoke-filled battlefield, besides the corpses of various demons, there were also treasure chests emitting Guanghui.

Clearly, the hundredfold drop rate was also at work.

The Professionals dared not imagine how good the items dropped by these Monarch Tier monsters would be.

However… none of the Undead Professionals went to pick up those treasure chests.

Because these items all belonged to the Empire.

After all, the tenfold amplification was given by the God-Emperor.

Without Limit Berserk, the Corpse Explosion spells of these Undead Professionals might not have been able to break through the demons’ defenses.

“It’s your turn. Go retrieve the treasure chests.”

“If you see any that aren’t dead, just finish them off.”

Chen Moran turned to look at the mechanics beside him, a smile beaming on his face.

At this moment, he had reached Rank 150, becoming a Peak Monarch.

The experience points for promotion to Emperor had also been met; it was just a matter of when he could achieve Epiphany and become the seventh Emperor of Shenzhou.

“So envious…”

“We both rely on summoned creatures, so why do we only get to clean up the battlefield?”

“Is it just because our mechanical creations can remotely pick up treasure chests?”

The mechanical Professionals sighed, driving their mechanical creations to the battlefield to begin collecting treasure chests.

They were now somewhat hoping that another wave of monsters would rush out while they were cleaning the battlefield.

Because mechanical creations also had a self-destruct function.

But reality disappointed them.

After the first wave of attacks was thwarted, the monsters delayed their second move.

They could only search the entire battlefield for living monsters, eating the experience points left by others.

“What! Completely wiped out!?”

Lion Camel Ridge, Lion Camel Cave.

When the three Demon Kings learned that the first batch of demon soldiers had been completely annihilated, they were all stunned on the spot.

After a moment of silence, the Azure Lion King smashed the human-head wine cup in his hand to the ground and roared at the little demon beside him: “Go fetch my great saber! I will personally deal with them!”

“Big Brother! Wait a moment!”

The Yellow Tusk Elephant King, with his enormous body and curved tusks, yet possessing a soft, ladylike voice, quickly stood up and advised: “The first wave of charge is cannon fodder, intended to test the enemy’s strength. Now that we’ve tested it, the enemy is far stronger than we imagined! Big Brother must not be impulsive!”

“Yes, this matter is indeed very strange!”

The usually calm and arrogant Golden-Winged Great Peng also nodded: “I expected the first wave of charge to be obstructed, but I never expected it to be completely wiped out, and so quickly.”

Speaking of this, he pondered for a moment, then looked at the Yellow Tusk Elephant King and said: “Second Brother, your caution is correct; the enemy is stronger than we imagined. Jiang Ziya did not tell the truth!”

“What do we do now!?”

The Azure Lion King said bitterly: “We’ve lost ten thousand demon soldiers for nothing; we can’t just return home, can we?”

“Naturally not!”

The Golden-Winged Great Peng raised a hand and said: “Prepare to launch the second wave of attack to further test their strength. This time, let the demon generals go as well. If that still doesn’t work…”

At this point, a flash of lightning flickered in the Golden-Winged Great Peng’s eyes, and he said fiercely: “I will have to ask Jiang Ziya what kind of trick he is playing!”
