30: Racial advancement: Skeleton Lord!

"No, no!"

"You can't kill me!"

"You will regret this!"

"Chancellorial Father, avenge me! Kill them all!"

Facing the pale blade light at close range, even if it was just a sliver...

Ye Lingxing also perceived that incredibly violent energy!

What Imperial Capital Prodigy? Before this Little Skeleton, they were all a joke!

I shouldn't have come!

I shouldn't have come!

A sliver of pale blade light pierced through his heart without any resistance.

What a humiliating disgrace!

To actually die in the territory of commoners!

Gurgle.

His heart was churned into mush by the blade light!

Cough, cough~

Fragments of internal organs, accompanied by a large mouthful of foul blood, sprayed from his mouth.

Little Skeleton,

don't be so arrogant!

Chancellorial Father will kill you!

Chancellorial Father will tear you into ten thousand pieces!

A final trace of hatred welled up in his eyes.

A final trace of regret was also revealed!

Regret!

Hatred!

His eyes completely lost their color.

The Youngest Son of the Imperial Minister,

dead!

...The insufferably arrogant Youngest Son of the Imperial Minister.

Dead!

Chen Shouyi and the others had dull, dazed expressions!

This demon is finally dead!

Everyone let out a long breath of pent-up gloom from the bottom of their hearts, feeling as if they were reborn!

And all of this was because of Ning Xiwei's Little Skeleton!

Looking at the Little Skeleton and Ning Xiwei, everyone's eyes showed gratitude at the same time.

Looking back at Ye Lingxing's corpse again.

On it,

the orange protective light barrier's glow did not diminish.

Truly astonishing!

Even though The Youngest Son of the Imperial Minister was dead, the protective light barrier was still bright, without the slightest decline.

The Imperial Prime Minister's methods were indeed unfathomable!

However!

The Little Skeleton struck once and then left.

One strike penetrated the Imperial Prime Minister's blockade and directly took Ye Lingxing's life!

In a confrontation across space with the Imperial Prime Minister,

the Little Skeleton won completely!

In an instant, the pressure that could have reduced the entire city to ashes suddenly fell from their shoulders.

Between the sudden tension and its release,

many Chiyang High-ranking Officials wailed loudly.

Finally... they didn't have to die immediately!

But,

the future crisis would be even worse!

Chen Shouyi's eyes flickered, searching for a final chance at survival.

At this time.

Lu Chen compared the rewards from killing the Third-Tier Phantom Beast with the rewards from killing Ye Lingxing.

Killing the Third-Tier Phantom Beast granted:

【Strength +967】

【Physique +1201】

【Agility +1000】

【spirit +22】

【Acquired Talent: Purple Realm】

(Purple Realm: Converts Spiritual Qi into mist to deter enemies and invade their spirit)

【Evolution Essence Conversion Successful】

【Racial Value +19996】

【Soul Siphon Successful】

【Vitality +10000】

While killing Ye Lingxing granted:

【Strength +33】

【spirit +11】

【Acquired Skill: Myriad Jun Slash】

(Myriad Jun Slash: You can increase the power up to one hundred and eight times by stacking saber momentum.)

【Evolution Essence Conversion Successful】

【Racial Value +500】

【Soul Siphon Successful】

【Vitality +106】

The attribute points dropped by the Third-Tier Phantom Beast were particularly eye-catching.

Vitality even directly stored 10,000 points.

10,000 points of vitality,

could sustain ten thousand people!

Moreover, the majestic spiritual power released when the Third-Tier Phantom Beast died was completely absorbed by Lu Chen.

His Realm directly increased by two stages!

Second-Tier, Second-Stage!

"Raising my Realm is becoming more and more time-consuming."

"It still has to be experience babies like You Beasts that can accelerate Realm progression."

Glancing at Ye Lingxing, who died inside the light barrier.

Lu Chen shook his head.

What a pity, the source of the You Beasts is dead.

The amount of spiritual power contained in a Third-Tier Phantom Beast was enough to raise the past Lu Chen from First-Tier, Zero-Stage to First-Tier, Ninth-Stage.

Now,

added to the sum of spiritual power from killing countless Secret Realm monsters before, it barely allowed for a Breakthrough to Second-Tier, Second-Stage.

Tsk tsk.

Compared to a Third-Tier Phantom Beast,

the attributes dropped by the dignified son of the Imperial Prime Minister

were simply pathetic!

But this skill... oh, a hundredfold increase!

Lu Chen was overjoyed!

Strength of thirty thousand, a hundredfold, that's three million!

Hiss—

Lu Chen immediately began stacking his saber.

One strike, 1x.

Two strikes, 1.1x.

Three strikes, 1.2x... ninety strikes, 2.6x... a hundred strikes, 3x!

One hundred and one strikes, 3x.

"It's not increasing anymore."

"Wasn't it a hundredfold increase? Just this?"

The blade stopped.

The residual power pierced a hole into the earth, deep and bottomless.

The bone saber in his hand dissipated like a sand drawing.

It seems.

The hundredfold was Ye Lingxing's increase.

Applied to me,

it caps at three times.

It's all because my attribute points are too high.

Lu Chen thought.

However, being able to have a three-fold power increase

is also not bad.

Three times!

With one strike, that's an explosion of one hundred thousand strength attribute!

Another strike,

and a Third-Tier Phantom Beast wouldn't just be cut in half, but blown to bits!

Racial value is full again.

"Evolve!"

【Racial Value -20000】

【Race: Skeleton Commander → Skeleton Lord】

【All Attributes +1500】

【Acquired Racial Talent: White Bone Shield】

(White Bone Shield: Condenses a bone shield with defense equal to your own; the bone shield can switch between shield and cloak forms.)

【Racial Value】: 9202/50000

The skeleton solidified once more.

The crystalline light that was originally on every bone vanished without a trace, and the forest-white bones became dull, ancient, and more majestic.

Defense increased by about 1.5 times.

Accumulated over several evolutions, the total increase was about 3 times.

Thirty thousand Physique points were used as if they were one hundred and twenty thousand!

Swish!

A grayish-white cloak appeared behind Lu Chen, its edges jagged.

At first glance,

one might think it was torn from a piece of rotten cloth.

Lu Chen pinched the cloak; it was incredibly tough!

Covering his back, it was equivalent to double the defense from behind.

Now it had the value of one hundred thousand Physique points!

As attributes increase in the future, the benefits will be even greater!

And,

the grayish-white cloak could also transform into a bone shield up to ten meters high.

Not bad.

Lu Chen gave a 'clack-clack' laugh.

At this time,

Ning Xiwei and Sun Feifei woke up.

"Where's the giant You Beast?"

The two girls looked around with lingering fear.

They didn't see the terrifying figure of the You Beast.

Ning Xiwei looked at Lu Chen's back; it was small, yet it seemed to support the heavens and earth!

"It must be him!"

"His strength is truly growing rapidly every second."

Thinking of herself and her Best Friend,

fainting the moment they faced the giant You Beast,

it was truly pathetic.

Ning Xiwei couldn't help but blush.

Soon,

the two girls understood the situation.

Third-Tier Phantom Beast, dead!

Myriad Beast Paradise Secret Realm, shattered!

Youngest Son of the Imperial Minister, dead!

A large number of Chiyang High-ranking Officials, dead!

The flood of news shocked Ning Xiwei and her friend, nearly causing them to faint again!

Their hearts could not be calm for a long time!

They had only taken a nap,

and the situation in Chiyang City had been turned upside down!

They had provoked the Imperial Prime Minister!

The entire city was in critical danger!

And,

the defeat was because of the Little Skeleton,

and the success was also because of the Little Skeleton!

However, the culprit could only be the Imperial Prime Minister's youngest son, Ye Lingxing!

Ning Xiwei's emotions were complex.

She looked at Lu Chen.

She only knew,

no matter how the world turned upside down,

no matter if the sky fell or the earth split,

she would stand firmly by Lu Chen's side!

Facing it together!

Feeling the rock-solid emotion from the contract in his mind,

it was truly small yet fearless.

As expected of my little master.

Lu Chen's small crimson flames reflected the girl's small body.

At this time,

Sun Feifei rushed toward the Chiyang High-ranking Officials.

"Dad!"

She threw herself at Sun Qihai, her bright eyes full of tears.

The dying Sun Qihai exhausted all his strength to open half an eye.

"Fei..."

He couldn't speak.

He twitched his lips, wanting to give his precious daughter one last smile.

He failed.

He didn't have the strength to control his lips.

My precious daughter,

you survived!

Dad was wrong to try to sever your relationship with Ning Xiwei.

The Little Skeleton is your Opportunity!

You must seize it!

You must stand unwaveringly by Ning Xiwei's side.

Take care.

"Dad!"

Sun Feifei shook Sun Qihai.

Sun Qihai seemed unable to respond ever again.

"Little Skeleton."

Sun Feifei knelt before Lu Chen.

"You are powerful; you can even shatter a Secret Realm and even have a spatial treasure!"

"You must have a way!"

"I beg of you!"

"Save my dad!"
