143: Breaking Lu Shen’s 15-year monopoly!!

Awooo!!!

The Fear Corpse King had tenacious vitality; this single strike did not end his life directly.

Moreover, the position Ye Ze stabbed was not a fatal weakness, but a white normal weakness.

Swish!!

The Purgatory Flame Demon Blade shot out sharp Blade Qi, and Ye Ze flicked it upwards.

Rip!!

The entire section of the Fear Corpse King's left chest, from the heart upwards, was sliced open, and his left arm was sent flying.

Awooo!!! Er ah!!!!

A mournful wail came from the Fear Corpse King's throat, and its aura significantly dropped!

With this drop, many more weaknesses appeared on its body.

Ye Ze's gaze landed on the massive new white weakness that appeared on the Fear Corpse King's waist.

The Purgatory Flame Demon Blade in his hand struck out again, aiming directly for the Fear Corpse King's waist.

Rip!! Rip!!

A sound of flesh and blood tearing.

The Fear Corpse King was cut in half at the waist.

Swish!!

Another strike!

The Fear Corpse King's remaining right arm was also severed!

Blood splattered!

The wails were constant.

Awooo!!! Er awooo!!!

The Fear Corpse King was literally carved into a human pig by Ye Ze!

The upper and lower halves of its body collapsed to the ground, unable to move, only able to watch as the life force within it slowly drained away.

This wasn't because Ye Ze was cruel and did it on purpose.

Rather, he needed to control the clearance time to leave enough room for refreshing the fastest clearance record later.

He glanced at the time: 21 minutes 04 seconds.

That was 14 minutes 52 seconds earlier than the fastest clearance record.

Hmm, still very early.

Awooo!!!

The Fear Corpse King wailed on the ground, having completely lost its combat ability.

It only needed one more strike to finish it off and clear the Corpse Fiend Dungeon.

Ye Ze ignored it and turned his gaze to the dense Skeleton Guardians around him...

[Over-level kill of Lv 20 Skeleton Guardian, gaining 6000 Energy Points (Extra +2000)]

[Over-level kill of Lv 20 Skeleton Guardian, gaining 6000 Energy Points (Extra +2000)]

[...]

...

A slaughter feast began!

At the same time—

(Death Qi: 3050/100000)

(Death Qi: 3100/100000)

(Death Qi: 3150/100000)

...

Death Qi was also steadily rising...

...

At a certain moment, Ye Ze lowered his head and glanced at his communication watch.

"It's about time..."

Swish!!

A flash of Blade Qi illuminated the void!

Gurgle~ Gurgle~

The Fear Corpse King stopped wailing, and its head rolled two circles on the ground...

[Killed Lv 25 Boss-level monster Fear Corpse King, gained 1500 Death Qi!]

[Obtained Corpse Fiend Dungeon Hidden Reward: bone guardian armor (Tier 3) ×1!]

[Obtained Fear Corpse Core (Tier 3) ×1!]

[Obtained Energy Points ×150,000!]

[Obtained Tier 2 Secret Treasure ×1!]

...

...

Clang~! Clang~! Clang~!

Inside the first floor of the Copy Tower, three more bell tolls rang out.

"Someone broke the clearance record again!!?"

"This time it should be the Soggett Redwood Forest Corpse Fiend Dungeon, I saw Senior Sun Qianyang's team go in earlier."

"It's not the Soggett Redwood Forest Corpse Fiend Dungeon, it's the Buried Bone Graveyard Corpse Fiend Dungeon!!"

"Holy crap! Really?! Lord Lu's record that stood for fifteen years has been broken!!?"

In an instant, everyone present was startled and rushed towards the Buried Bone Graveyard Corpse Fiend Dungeon entrance.

They eagerly looked at the crystal screen beside the entrance.

[Clearance Record Ranking]

First: 35 minutes 55 seconds, Clearing Student: Ye Ze (Freshman)

Second: 35 minutes 56 seconds, Clearing Student: Lu Yun

Third: 35 minutes 57 seconds, Clearing Student: Lu Yun

...

...

"Ye Ze? Isn't that the person who set the fastest clearance record for the Forgotten Grassland Corpse Fiend Dungeon yesterday!?"

"It's him. He also entered the Buried Bone Graveyard Corpse Fiend Dungeon yesterday. I didn't expect him to break Lord Lu's record today."

"And not more or less, just one second faster than Lord Lu..."

"If this record isn't a coincidence, but him imitating Lord Lu and doing it on purpose... then that's too terrifying."

Hiss!

Everyone present couldn't help but gasp.

It wasn't impossible for the record refresh to be just 1 second faster than the fastest clearance record by coincidence,

but because this Corpse Fiend Dungeon had Lord Lu's example before.

It wasn't impossible for this person to imitate Lord Lu and deliberately control the new record to be a 1-second difference...

And the possibility was quite high!

Stepping back,

even if it was a coincidence,

a Freshman student breaking Lord Lu's 15-year monopoly was enough to be shocking.

"Huh? When did the Buried Bone Graveyard Corpse Fiend Dungeon get a Corpse Fiend Dungeon Hidden Reward?"

At this moment, someone noticed a new [Entry] on the crystal screen regarding a Corpse Fiend Dungeon hidden reward item.

"Skeleton Guardian Necklace... Hmm? It's actually one of the skeleton guardian set... Did Lord Lu not collect the full skeleton guardian set back then?"

"The prerequisite for obtaining this Skeleton Guardian Necklace is probably not breaking the fastest Corpse Fiend Dungeon clearance record, so Lord Lu overlooked it."

"Holy crap!!"

An exclamation rang out,

"Quick, look at the stats of this necklace, they're simply heaven-defying!!"

There was a second of silence in the hall, followed by an uproar!

"Quality Advancement! This necklace can advance the entire skeleton guardian set to Tier 4!"

"And this Undead Transformation Art..."

"This... this Skeleton Guardian Necklace is clearly the core of the entire skeleton guardian set..."

"No wonder the prerequisite for the skeleton guardian set is so strict, requiring breaking the fastest clearance record to obtain it."

"Quick, see who obtained the Skeleton Guardian Necklace."

They scanned the bottom of the crystal screen and saw a very small line of text.

—[Freshman student Ye Ze obtained Corpse Fiend Dungeon Hidden Reward: Skeleton Guardian Necklace (Tier 3)]

"It's him again!"

"The acquisition time was yesterday. He didn't break the record yesterday.

The prerequisite for obtaining this Skeleton Guardian Necklace is indeed different from the other skeleton guardian set pieces."

"When he comes out, we must ask him how he obtained the Skeleton Guardian Necklace."

"..."

In the face of the powerful effects of the Skeleton Guardian Necklace,

the shock of Ye Ze breaking Lord Lu's record gradually was replaced by a strong desire to know how he obtained this necklace.

Swish!!

Just then,

the Corpse Fiend Dungeon entrance flashed with light, and a figure walked out from it.

"He's out! He's out!"

"Brother, how did you get the Skeleton Guardian Necklace? Tell us."

"Yeah, we won't freeload, we can buy this information with points."

"..."

A clamor of voices rose in the tower...
