416: Grind to death

After the black liquid on the Shadow Spear Skeleton discovered something was wrong, it quickly returned in the direction of the original Bone Demon.

But by this time, the Bone Demon was nowhere to be seen.

The bone hand that had been holding down the Bone Demon had already lifted.

And what awaited this black liquid was merely a cold and desperate bone shield.

At this moment, the Bone Demon had been circled by the Scarlet Witch and brought back to Gu Qinghan's side.

He looked at Gu Qinghan, his voice trembling slightly as he said:

"Master, I really can't control my body!

Please don't give up on me, I am still very useful.

I am willing to die on the battlefield for you, even if I completely die in the next battle!"

For these Netherworld Creatures, death was not terrifying at all.

What the Bone Demon truly feared was Gu Qinghan permanently benching him or even abandoning him altogether.

In that case, he would no longer be able to fight against various enemies.

Although he had only been with Gu Qinghan for a short time, the battles he experienced were far more interesting than those in the Netherworld before.

The pleasure of fighting unfamiliar enemies was something that could not be experienced by fighting other Netherworld Creatures.

Gu Qinghan just glanced at him, smiled, and shook his head, saying:

"It's not your fault, it's just that you guys are too strong."

The Bone Demon was stunned; although he possessed intelligence, he couldn't grasp Gu Qinghan's meaning.

Gu Qinghan also couldn't explain, so he just continued to watch the battle over there.

Originally, his goal was to have the Shadow Spear Skeleton directly block this attack, and then quickly withdraw this Shadow Spear Skeleton from the battlefield.

However, the reaction of that black liquid was somewhat unexpected to him.

At this moment, the Shadow Spear Skeleton had been controlled.

His connection to it was still there, but he could no longer control its actions.

On the battlefield over there, the Shadow Spear Skeleton was sprinting in one direction.

Gu Qinghan smiled slightly; although he couldn't control its actions, he could control it to change its profession.

The next second, the bone spear in the Shadow Spear Skeleton's hand instantly disappeared, and its armor turned into a white robe.

It transformed into an Extreme Ice Wizard Skeleton!

At this, the Temporary Workers emerging from the Bone Tomb instantly overwhelmed this controlled Skeleton.

In an emergency, this Extreme Ice Wizard Skeleton even continuously released countless Ice Spike Balls.

But by this time, the surrounding Skeletons were already about to engulf it, and most of those Ice Spikes could only pass through the bones of these Temporary Workers.

Since the black liquid had not revealed itself, Gu Qinghan could only order these Skeletons to crush this controlled Extreme Ice Wizard Skeleton.

In this way, even if Gu Qinghan suffered a loss, it was much better than losing a Bone Demon.

Moreover, to better observe the battlefield, Gu Qinghan also had the Scarlet Witch carry him away from the ground.

He looked down from the air and discovered that after the first Skeleton died, another Skeleton was running towards the periphery.

Instantly, Gu Qinghan understood that the black liquid had transferred to this abnormal Skeleton.

Following Gu Qinghan's command, this Skeleton attempting to escape was crushed once again.

For a long time afterward, Gu Qinghan meticulously observed the battlefield, crushing any abnormal Skeleton.

Meanwhile, the shadowy figures formed by condensed Death Qi were dealt with by Gu Qinghan's other subordinates.

Finally, the Guardian's voice sounded in Gu Qinghan's mind again, this time with a hint of helplessness:

"I didn't expect you to explore the Land of Eternal Sleep in this way."

Gu Qinghan replied, "But it seems to be working well, doesn't it?"

The Guardian hummed, then fell silent again.

Gu Qinghan continued to observe the situation in the field, crushing Skeletons that slipped from his control one by one.

Eventually, Gu Qinghan noticed that no Skeletons were fleeing in the opposite direction.

But that thing absolutely couldn't have died just like that, because Gu Qinghan hadn't seen anything enter his Embrace of the Undead.

He suddenly gave all the Skeletons an order to quickly run a few steps in a certain direction.

One Skeleton was noticeably slow to react, but Gu Qinghan still didn't find it.

But Gu Qinghan repeated this method several times, with different movements each time.

Finally, Gu Qinghan discovered this different Skeleton, and the surrounding Skeletons instantly rushed up and crushed it into pieces.

This time, the black liquid finally couldn't hold back, directly falling from the shattered Skeleton and scurrying away into the distance.

Only then did Gu Qinghan see clearly that the black liquid moved with several long legs, looking exactly like a large black spider.

And this large black spider no longer wanted to control any other spiders at this point, and its movements had slowed down considerably.

Clearly, this fellow was injured, and not lightly.

However, even so, the black spider, using the cover of the black mist, still quickly scurried into the depths of the Land of Eternal Sleep.

Gu Qinghan immediately ordered all remaining Extreme Ice Wizard Skeletons to unleash a Freezing Cold Stream in that direction, freezing large areas with frost.

The speed of the large black spider also became slower and slower, seemingly about to stop completely.

Just then, Gu Qinghan suddenly felt the ground begin to shake violently.

Before he could think further, he saw a large black snake suddenly rise in the Death Qi in the distance.

The snake's body was incredibly huge; Gu Qinghan couldn't even see its head.

But as soon as this large snake appeared, it immediately shot a black ray towards this side.

The target of this black ray was Gu Qinghan's Skeletons.

Gu Qinghan was quick-witted, placing the bone shield, which he hadn't yet removed, in front of his Skeletons.

At the same time, the Scarlet Witch also activated her defensive skill.

The next moment, the black ray directly collided with the bone shield.

Then, it instantly pierced through!

Gu Qinghan's pupils contracted at this moment; he couldn't imagine what kind of existence could unleash such a terrifying blow.

But fortunately, after penetrating the bone shield, this black ray clearly lost some of its power, entering a brief stalemate after colliding with the Witch's blood-red shield.

But before Gu Qinghan could rejoice, the black ray pierced through the blood-red shield, engulfing a large number of Skeletons.

Gu Qinghan's heart trembled, but fortunately, none of his Skeletons died.

Even so, all the engulfed Skeletons were left with only a trace of vitality, like candles in the wind, liable to be extinguished at any moment.

And in the distance, the black ray condensed again, shooting towards the same spot.

Gu Qinghan suddenly became incredibly calm at this moment; his eyes instantly turned green, as if quietgreen flames were rising within them.

Immediately after, Gu Qinghan said to the Bone Demon in his mind: "Use your ranged skills to kill that guy."

"And you, Master?"

"I'll buy you time."
