It was a colossal crab-like monster, more than twenty ters long, with twin massive claws. It was clearly a world rank boss.
The mont Lin Moyu spotted it, a teor streaked down from the sky toward the creature.
The creature instantly adjusted its stance and shot upward to et it.
One enormous claw snapped shut around the teor with perfect precision.
Despite its size, the claw handled the teor with shocking delicacy. Its control over strength was astounding.
The impact pushed the crab boss back several dozen ters before it finally neutralized the force.
After a few seconds of deadlock, the light surrounding the teor dissipated, revealing a Star Crystal within.
This Star Crystal was several tis larger than any Lin Moyu had obtained before.
He imdiately understood why.
The teors he had shattered earlier with Bone Spear had lost much of their energy in the explosion, resulting in smaller, weaker crystals.
But this world rank boss had relied on softness to overco strength. It prevented the teor from exploding and obtained a complete Star Crystal.
The boss tossed the intact crystal into its mouth and swallowed it.
Brilliant multicolored light erupted across its entire body, weaving together as if turning it into a vibrant star.
Lin Moyu sensed its aura rise slightly. It had grown stronger.
“So the bosses here can strengthen themselves by absorbing Star Crystals.”
Star Crystals contained the divine force of the God of Stars, and this divine force nourished the bosses, enabling them to grow.
Day after day, year after year, under the endless teor bombardnt, only the strongest could survive on the teorfall Continent.
Their existence had been etched into the land itself. Even if slain, they respawned quickly, faster than in any other region.
Neither monsters nor bosses could be eradicated completely.
Once killed, they would eventually return.
This seed to be a law. Lin Moyu didn’t understand it before, but now he had so insight.
Though teors ravaged the land, they also infused it with divine force. Every inch of the teorfall Continent carried the divine force of the God of Stars. R̃àNộΒΕ𝐒
Empowered by divine force, monsters grew stronger and respawned faster.
Because of this, the extrely dangerous teorfall Continent still attracted so powerful peak-level class users.
Occasionally, parties of several dozen level 85-plus peak-level class users ventured here to hunt world rank bosses for equipnt and materials.
But such parties were rare. After all, the teorfall Continent was simply too perilous.
An unlucky encounter with an extrely powerful teor could an instant annihilation.
Just as the crab boss finished absorbing the Star Crystal, space about 1,000 ters away suddenly split open like a curtain.
A group of 40 human class users stepped out.
Every one of them was level 85-plus, radiating a formidable aura.
They charged straight toward the crab boss, unleashing a barrage of skills.
At their level, most had already perceived the skill space and seen the skill star cores.
Their understanding of skills vastly eclipsed that of lower-level class users.
Their combined assault struck the crab boss hard, leaving it montarily stunned.
Still absorbed in digesting the Star Crystal, it was sluggish, reacting noticeably slower.
From afar, Lin Moyu watched in surprise, “Speak of the devil.”
He had just been thinking about how human peak-level class users occasionally ca here to hunt world rank bosses, and now he had run into such a party.
It was obvious these class users had been tracking the crab boss for so ti, waiting for it to absorb a Star Crystal before striking.
With 40 peak-level class users coordinating flawlessly, the crab boss had no chance to fight back.
Four Knights locked it down, Mages and Archers attacked from range, and support class users added control, just enough to push the boss over the edge.
“The Jialan Guild… as expected of humanity’s number one guild.”
Lin Moyu recognized the emblem on their uniforms.
Only a guild like the Jialan Guild could assemble such a powerful party.
He watched for a mont longer. The outco was already set in stone.
The Jialan Guild had co fully prepared, unleashing overwhelming damage from the very start.
Just as he was about to leave, a massive aura erupted in the distance, rushing straight toward him.
A dark figure hurtled through the air at frightening speed.
“A Dragon King!”
Lin Moyu was startled. A Dragon King had actually arrived.
A Dragon King ranked on the sa level as a Demon King or a human God-level powerhouse.
Normally, Dragon Kings couldn’t enter the lower layer.
That ant either the Dragonkind had used a special summoning thod, or the Dragon King had co through a spatial channel in the deep layer.
Lin Moyu judged the first possibility more likely.
After all, the connection nodes of spatial channels were random, so there was no way to pinpoint their locations.
The Dragon King was clearly coming for him.
Combined with the two earlier waves of Dragonkind attackers, Lin Moyu realized they must already know his location.
Yet he hadn’t had any contact with them.
“It must be the Demon Emperor’s doing!”
Lin Moyu imdiately thought of the Demon Emperor. It was highly likely that the Demon Emperor had played a trick on him.
The Demons had a thod to leave behind their aura to track people through it.
Such a thod was nothing extraordinary when it ca to the Demon Emperor.
Even if the Demon Emperor shared the tracking thod with the Dragonkind, it wouldn’t be strange.
The Dragon Emperor surely hated him, so sending the Dragonkind to hunt him down was only natural.
With his strong soul, Lin Moyu’s thoughts were lightning-fast, piecing things together in monts.
It was only a guess, but he was certain he was right.
The Jialan Guild class users also sensed the Dragon King’s aura, and panic swept across their faces.
They had noticed Lin Moyu earlier, feeling that a level 70 class user coming to teorfall Continent was practically asking for death
But while preparing to ambush the crab boss, they didn’t call out to him.
They planned to wait until after they killed the boss to remind Lin Moyu, or even escort him away.
But now, out of nowhere, a Dragon King had arrived. This developnt was far beyond their expectations.
And judging from his trajectory, the Dragon King’s target was Lin Moyu.
A Dragon King coming all the way to teorfall Continent just to kill a level 70 human class user? What kind of situation was this?
“Party Leader, should we protect him?” A Jialan Guild mber asked.
The party leader’s eyes glead, “Of course! He’s human—how could we just watch him die?”
“I want to see how strong Dragon Kings really are. Let’s see how they compare to our human God-level powerhouses!”
“Yeah! I bet Dragon Kings aren’t that impressive. We’ll know once we fight!”
“Brothers, let's do this! Let's kill the crab quickly, then face the Dragon King!”
Soone called out to Lin Moyu, “Little Brother, fall back quickly!”
Lin Moyu heard them. The Jialan Guild didn’t disappoint.
This was a guild filled with righteousness and loyalty, not only to their own guild mbers, but also toward their fellow humans as a whole.
Most would have ignored him or fled; they chose to stand with him.
Since that was the case…
“You guys handle the boss. Leave the Dragon King to .”
The mont Lin Moyu spoke, his aura surged.
Staring at the rapidly approaching Dragon King, he murmured, “Dragonkind Battle Generals weren’t enough to test my limits. But you… you’ll do nicely.”
The undead army materialized in the air—30,000 Headless Knights at the front, silver flas soaring like a towering wall of fire.
The instant they appeared, the Headless Knights activated Charge, shooting toward the Dragon King at blinding speed.
Although their combat power was weaker, the Dragon King would still need to exert so effort to break through them.
Then, the sky turned pitch black, and a massive throne of bones erged in midair.
The remaining 90,000 skeletons vanished.
In their place, a Skeletal King appeared atop the throne of bones, sword in hand, blood-red cloak made of white bones billowing behind it.
It rose with a chilling scrape of bone, raised its sword, and swung it at the Dragon King.
Skill: Godslayer!
