"Whoosh!"
The Yin Ghost, now in physical manifestation form with a Constitution of 12.4, possessed imnse explosive power! In the blink of an eye, it had rushed out several dozen ters!
However, the elite Corpse Demon was even faster!
Following right after, its massive body almost turned into a pale gray shadow, quickly closing the distance with the Yin Ghost!
Although their Constitutions were similar, their specific inclinations were different. This elite Corpse Demon’s strong limbs made it extrely adept at running, far exceeding the speed of the Yin Ghost!
In less than ten seconds, it caught up and viciously lunged at the Yin Ghost’s back!
Just as those sharp teeth were about to pierce through the Yin Ghost’s skin, the Yin Ghost’s physical body beca phantom-like and transparent. The elite Corpse Dog’s bite landed on empty air, while the Yin Ghost took this opportunity to drift out another dozen ters.
Even so, Chu Xiu could clearly feel that the Yin Ghost’s soul body had weakened a bit.
Although the soul body could greatly reduce physical damage, it was not completely immune. The vast kinetic energy passing by still caused slight harm to soul-type beings.
Moreover, after becoming intangible, the wild boar that the Yin Ghost was holding fell to the ground.
The elite Corpse Dog ignored the wild boar on the ground and intended to continue pursuing the Yin Ghost. However, suddenly, dozens of blood-colored bone hands erged around its body, firmly gripping its limbs!
At the sa ti, a long-charged pitch-black Wind Blade shot out from the side, striking the massive body of the elite zombie dog!
"Pfft!"
With a loud bang, as if hit by an anti-material sniper rifle, the giant beast’s hide was effortlessly torn apart, the flesh beneath exploding with vast energy, splattering all around, forming a huge traumatic wound!
The beast clearly did not expect to be attacked so suddenly, and with the Bone Bloodthirst Array’s assistance, had no ti to dodge, being directly hit by Chu Xiu’s fully charged Yin Wind Blade!
Yet, after falling, it let out a roar, and in an extrely short ti, got back up, turning to where Chu Xiu was, issuing an angry howl!
"This...?"
Surprise flashed in Chu Xiu’s eyes.
That strike had been fully powered. Although hidden in a corner more than ten ters away to avoid being detected by this elite creature, reducing the Yin Wind Blade’s Power substantially, it still dealt at least 7.0 Power.
To withstand such a strike and get up imdiately was sothing Chu Xiu hadn’t anticipated—he thought that if this strike landed, the opponent would be at least half dead if not completely. The remaining battle should have been easy to wrap up.
But then, his eyes narrowed, discovering the crux of the matter.
In the shattered wound of the elite Corpse Dog, a blood-covered grey-white skeleton was revealed, significantly defensive, encasing all the elite Corpse Dog’s vital organs. Though a deep scratch ran across it, the overall structure remained firm.
"So this is what the Trait ’Bone Spike’ ans? Well, this is troubling." Chu Xiu’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Under his gaze, the elite Corpse Dog panted heavily, a strange red light flaring on its body, and the terrifying wound on its flank visibly stopped bleeding and began to heal!
[Skill: Rapid Recovery!]
Adding to the trouble, that previous howl had alard all nearby Corpse Dogs, causing them to charge towards where Chu Xiu was!
"Looks like I have to face them head-on."
With a thought, Chu Xiu was clad in thick Bone Armor.
Without hesitation, Chu Xiu stepped forward boldly, turning his waist and thrusting the Bone Spear in his hand!
The elite Corpse Dog howled, enduring the pain as it leapt aside. Although it dodged Chu Xiu’s attack, the freshly healed wound was torn open again. Simultaneously, a blurred shadow suddenly leapt upon it, causing its entire body to tremble as if plunged into icy water, losing heat like a drowning person!
Yin Ghost Skill [Life Extraction!]
"Tch!"
As the elite Corpse Dog’s limbs weakened, Chu Xiu’s Bone Spear had already struck out again, tearing through its thigh muscle!
"Roar!"
The elite Corpse Dog howled and leapt aside; this strike wasn’t deadly, but it further aggravated its condition, blood gushing out, seemingly unstable even to stand.
"The Bone Spear’s enhancent can’t keep up with the progress," Chu Xiu thought, continuing to launch attacks relentlessly!
After inflicting another wound, several ordinary Corpse Dogs arrived, attacking Chu Xiu.
Although Chu Xiu didn’t expend much effort dealing with them, the brief delay gave the elite Corpse Demon a chance to catch its breath, widening the distance with Chu Xiu, while more Corpse Dogs arrived, securely shielding their injured leader.
Their numbers kept growing, quickly surpassing twenty and continuously increasing. Nurous ordinary Corpse Demons also joined in the hunt for Chu Xiu.
Seeing the dense horde ahead, Chu Xiu not only remained unfazed but licked the blood spattered at the corner of his mouth, a slightly crazed, excited smile erging on his face beneath the Horned Helt.
Behind him, the Yin Ghost’s massive form appeared, its sharp claws reflecting cold glints in the sunlight!
With a lunge, Chu Xiu charged into the horde like a white beast, fearlessly, while the Yin Ghost swung its claws to follow, effortlessly slicing a zombie dog into pieces with every strike!
Wherever the man and ghost went, flesh and blood flew, no Corpse Demon could impede them!
...
The battle concluded in less than five minutes.
Aside from the elite Corpse Dog that was heavily wounded by Chu Xiu’s surprise attack at the outset, the other Corpse Demons posed no threat to Chu Xiu, whose Constitution surpassed theirs by more than double, amplified with 6 Energy Absorption Armor.
Even if several pounced together, they at most caused him to lose balance, creating minor troubles.
And for Chu Xiu, apart from himself, there were the Yin Ghost and the Bone Bloodthirst Array as major weapons.
In essence, this battle was almost a one-sided massacre.
"Though, if dozens of Corpse Demons charged from all directions at once, handling them would have been difficult."
Yet, unfortunately, though Corpse Demons had an extraordinarily high desire for living beings, they were not entirely mindless; nor were they fearless.
These Corpse Demons did not recklessly attack en masse, giving Chu Xiu the opportunity to defeat them individually, especially after he seized the chance to slay the elite Corpse Dog.
The ultimate result was that countless Corpse Demons fled in all directions, leaving thirty-seven bodies behind.
[Slaughtering living beings, Professional Experience 218]
[Slaughtering living beings, Professional Experience 256]
Two prompt texts flashed before Chu Xiu’s eyes.
The first ca from the elite Corpse Dog, the latter from the total of more than thirty other Corpse Demons.
"Indeed, it’s vital to kill high-tier elite creatures," Chu Xiu mused.
The experience provided by just this one was almost equal to the sum of the more than thirty others put together.
"These many bodies should be enough, shouldn’t they?"
An ecstatic glint flashed in Chu Xiu’s eyes.
With a wave of his hand, nurous Corpse Dog and ordinary Corpse Demon bodies began to ld, fusing into his Bone Armor!
As one corpse after another was refined, the Bone Armor on him emitted a dazzling white light, seemingly evolving towards the next stage!
Eventually, as if breaking through a critical point, the Bone Armor began to transform at a visibly rapid pace. The spines beca thicker and sharper, the plate density surged, its structure more compact!
A panel flashed before Chu Xiu.
[Exquisite Bone Armor 7]
[Enhancent Progress: 0/10]
[Tier: Mortal]
[Quality: Treasure]
[Attributes: Defense (6.6), Spines (1.4), Insulation (0.4), Energy Absorption (2.0), Weight 31.5 kg]
Facing the data before him, Chu Xiu couldn’t conceal his delight.
After refining so many Corpse Demons, he had finally strengthened this armor to 7! The quality had also upgraded to [Treasure]!
Reaching 7, the Bone Armor’s defensive capability was extrely impressive, far surpassing even the heaviest ancient plate armor.
Not to ntion, it also had strong energy absorption abilities; Chu Xiu estimated that now, wearing the Bone Armor, he could withstand bullets from a military handgun unscathed.
Of course, an assault rifle would still be too much to handle, its penetration power too terrifying.
Nevertheless, this was already remarkable.
And most importantly...
