Snap!! Crack!!

Awooah!!! Ugh!!!

Accompanied by the Screams of the Skeletal Jailer, its armor-like body was pierced by the Earth Dragon Thorns, scattering shattered bones everywhere...

The surrounding Skeleton Guardians awoke from their slumber and surrounded Ye Ze.

[Duststorm·Quicksand Burial]!

Rumble!!!

A large amount of quicksand rushed down from the altar like a tide, bursting out of the graveyard.

All bones, all armor, disintegrated in the quicksand.

(Death Qi: 13750/50000)

...

...

An hour and a half later,

Ye Ze arrived at the familiar graveyard—the Corpse Fiend Dungeon.

His gaze fell upon the stone coffin in the center of the graveyard.

Ye Ze’s face showed a nostalgic expression, as if seeing an old friend after a long time, "Old friend, I'm back again."

Without hesitation, he chose options 2 and 3.

"Poison Dragon Drill!!"

Ye Ze's malicious gaze fell upon the stone coffin in the center of the hall, "Old friend, I've brought you something good."

The moment his voice fell,

Whoosh!!

Ye Ze teleported to a position less than ten meters away from the stone coffin.

[Earth Dragon Thorns]!

The yellow light on his right palm intensified, and he slammed it downwards.

[Earth Dragon Thorns·Poison Dragon Drill]!!

Rumble!!

The ground trembled violently.

Immediately after, an extremely thick Earth Thorn protruded from the ground.

Bang!!!

The stone coffin directly burst open.

Bang!!

The Earth Thorn pierced through the body of the Fear Corpse King and slammed heavily into the ceiling, green blood dripping down the thick stone column.

Awooah!!!! Ugh!!!!

The familiar scream of his old friend came from above, and Ye Ze showed a satisfied expression...

...

[Level-skipped kill of a Level 25 Leader-level monster, Fear Corpse King, gained 200,000 Energy Points (extra +100,000)]

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

[Gained 1500 points of Death Qi]

[Obtained 1 Tier 2 Secret Treasure!]

...

When Ye Ze emerged from the Buried Bone Graveyard, the Death Qi collected by the Skeleton Guardian Necklace had reached—(Death Qi: 24550/50000)

Ye Ze checked the time, 14:25.

He had entered around 11:30, meaning in nearly 3 hours, he had farmed nearly 20,000 Death Qi.

"This Duststorm combined with Earth Dragon Thorns, the monster farming rate is quite good," Ye Ze was very satisfied with the effect of the newly comprehended skills.

The only minor flaw was that both Duststorm and Earth Dragon Thorns were magic-based skills.

They consumed not onlyAlien Force but also Spirit.

Immediately after—

Ye Ze consumed 20000 Death Qi to upgrade the [bones guardian ring] and [bone guardian armor].

A faint light flashed.

The two Secret Treasures completed their quality upgrades sequentially.

[bones guardian ring (Tier 3) → bones guardian ring (Tier 4)]

[Attributes increased → Constitution +100, gained an additional +100% Death Qi, Set effect 'Bone Reinforcement' level +1!]

[Bone Reinforcement +2]: Physical Resistance +500, Magic Resistance +500, Physical Resistance +100%, Magic Resistance +100%.

[bone guardian armor (Tier 3) → bone guardian armor (Tier 4)]

[Attributes increased → Physical Resistance +500, Magic Resistance +500, Essence of Bones +100%]

[Essence of Bones +100%]: -20% Undead magic damage

(Death Qi 4550/50000)

At this point, the [bones guardian boots] and [Skeletal Guardian Shield] had not yet been upgraded to Tier 4 Secret Treasures.

Copy Tower 1-3 floors,

Besides the [Buried Bone Graveyard] Corpse Fiend Dungeon, there were two other Undead Corpse Fiend Dungeons—[Undead Canyon] and [Skeleton Castle].

The entrances to these two Corpse Fiend Dungeons were located on the first and second floors respectively, but they didn't give much Death Qi.

Ye Ze spent two hours, killing almost all the Undead wandering in the Undead Canyon, but in the end, he only obtained 6000 Death Qi.

[Skeleton Castle] was located on the second floor. The vortex entrance was purple, indicating a Level 3 danger Corpse Fiend Dungeon, but the Death Qi it gave was far less than the [Buried Bone Graveyard].

The Skeleton Castle also had a Level 25 Leader-level Undead—Skeleton Assaulter. Ye Ze only gained 600 Death Qi from killing it, less than half of what his old friend gave.

Ye Ze found the efficiency too slow and directly used a random teleportation scroll to leave.

(Death Qi: 11860/50000)

[Quality Upgrade]!

A faint light flashed.

The [bones guardian boots] completed their quality upgrade.

[bones guardian boots (Tier 3) → bones guardian boots (Tier 4)]

[Attributes increased → +300 Movement Speed, Death Stomp +100% → Destruction Shock]

[Destruction Shock: Deals 200% Physical damage to enemies within 5 meters, chance to stun (20%~80%), stun duration 1 second. Aftershock deals 80% Physical damage per second, lasting 3 seconds.]
