Another divine arrow!

On the other side, atop the back of the Ice Abyss Dragon.

Chen Ming also received a notification from the system.

[Ding! Your summon, Undead Lord, has successfully evolved into a Dark Gold Grade Boss—Abyssal Undead Giant.]

As the notification sound faded.

Chen Ming glanced at the attributes of the Abyssal Undead Giant, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.

After evolving into the Abyssal Undead Giant, all of the Undead Lord's attributes had received a massive boost.

Especially its tankiness.

With a health bar as high as 24 million, plus 5,250 physical defense and 4,500 magic defense, it far surpassed any top-tier Knight-class players at this stage.

"It's simply an invincible meat shield."

"And according to this trend, I'm afraid by the time I reach Level 80, the Undead Lord will be able to grow into a God-grade boss."

"When I become a god, I'm afraid I can transcend even beyond the God-grade."

Muttering softly to himself, a hint of a smile couldn't help but curl at the corners of Chen Ming's mouth.

He now had three major summons under his command: the Ice Abyss Dragon, Emily, and the Abyssal Undead Giant.

Any one of them, taken out at random, was top-tier powerful.

As for Little Gray, that went without saying.

As an Eternal-grade Boss, his attributes and strength had long since transcended the scope of Tier 1 players.

"On the contrary, it's me; my current attributes can't even compare to Little Gray's now."

Muttering softly, Chen Ming laughed and shook his head.

However, he didn't care too much.

After all, he had only just completed his first advancement trial.

Once he completed the subsequent advancement trials, his growth potential wouldn't necessarily be any weaker than Little Gray's, who was an Eternal-grade Boss.

Thinking of this, Chen Ming opened his quest panel.

[Ding! You have successfully completed the quest—Class Awakening: Proof of Hunting.]

[Congratulations! You have received the rewards: Hunter's Badge, +200 to all attributes, +300 free attribute points.]

As the notification sound faded, a blood-red badge appeared out of thin air in Chen Ming's hand.

[Hunter's Badge]

[All Attributes: +30 points.]

[Attack Speed: +50%.]

Current maximum quality of refined arrows: Legendary-Grade.]

[Description: Exclusive equipment for Hunters. Cannot be lost, abandoned, traded, or damaged.]

..."This equipment..."

After reading the specific effects of the [Hunter's Badge], Chen Ming couldn't help but click his tongue in secret.

It was too perverted.

Plundering boss skills and traits, smelting equipment into arrows.

Moreover, this item was exclusive equipment for the Hunter class and would continuously promote and strengthen as Chen Ming completed class quests.

"Good stuff!"

Muttering softly, Chen Ming's mind moved. He opened his backpack and took out several pieces of equipment he couldn't use, which he had obtained from previously killing the Lich Overlord, the Headless Knight Commander, and the Undead Sovereign.

Then, he decisively activated the Slaughter Furnace effect that came with the [Hunter's Badge].

[Ding! Are you sure you want to put: Undead Scepter (Epic-grade), Undead Sovereign's Scepter of Sinking (Epic-grade), Lich Dagger (Epic-grade)... into the Slaughter Furnace for smelting and refining?]

[Yes/No?]

"Yes!"

Looking at the prompt before him, Chen Ming decisively made his choice.

The next moment, a blood-red flame appeared out of thin air in front of Chen Ming, enveloping all the equipment and beginning to burn them frantically.

The equipment enveloped by the blood-red flames began to melt at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Then, they transformed into a blood-gray arrow.

Seeing this, Chen Ming reached his hand directly into the blood-red flames and grabbed the arrow in his hand.

[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the equipment—Undead Slaughter Arrow (Legendary-Grade).]

[Undead Slaughter Arrow]

[Quality: Legendary-Grade.]

[Level: 40.]

[Durability: 1/1 point.]

[Special Effect 1: This arrow can deal physical damage equal to 4,000% of physical attack power to enemies.]

[Special Effect 2: This arrow can deal an additional 300% damage to undead creatures.]

[Description: Undead? Merely ants beneath my arrow.]

..."This is something!"

Chen Ming's eyes lit up.

The effect of the [Undead Slaughter Arrow] was very simple and clear—slaughtering the undead.

Not only was its single-target damage incredibly high, but it was also naturally targeted at the undead, increasing damage dealt to all undead creatures by 300%.

"Enhance!"

Holding the [Undead Slaughter Arrow], Chen Ming decisively activated his talent.

In an instant, a faint light bloomed.

[Ding! You have activated your Forbidden Talent on the target [Undead Slaughter Arrow], obtaining a Tier 2 enhancement boost.]

[Congratulations! You have obtained the equipment—Undead Hunters Arrow (God Grade).]

[Ding! You have activated your Forbidden Talent on the target [Undead Slaughter Arrow], successfully adding a purple suffix: Undead Nemesis.]

[Undead Hunters Arrow]

[Quality: God Grade.]

[Level: 40.]

[Durability: 1/1 point.]

[Special Effect 1: This arrow can deal physical damage equal to 10,000% of physical attack power to enemies.]

[Special Effect 2: When the target is an undead creature, damage is increased by 500%.]

[Additional Suffix: Undead Nemesis (Purple): Undead creatures locked onto by this arrow will be unable to escape and are immune to all damage reduction and damage immunity effects.]

[Description: The undead slaughtered my family. My lifelong wish is to wipe out all undead—Undead Hunter, Artuso.]

..."It evolved directly into God-grade."

Chen Ming's eyes brightened.

God-grade arrows; every single one was worth a fortune and possessed incredible power.

Although the [Undead Hunters Arrow] was only a Level 40 God-grade arrow, its power was likewise not to be underestimated. Especially against undead creatures, the attached effects could be described as a certain kill.

"This arrow will come in handy for dealing with the Undead Monarch next."

As he spoke, Chen Ming notched the [Undead Hunters Arrow] onto his bowstring, then drew the bow into a full moon and began to charge his power.

While charging, Chen Ming looked at the quest panel.

[Class Awakening: Proof of Hunting]
