Chapter 589 Continuing to test skills, wondrous crystals
The dragons spotted the undying black aura from afar.
"Found him. Jiang Chen is right there, just follow the directions."
"What is Jiang Chen doing? Why has everything turned dark there?"
The place where Jiang Chen was located had completely turned into a black world.
A pitch-black aura of immortality filled the sky and covered the earth, with occasional glimpses of white light—the flames of immortality.
The dragon warrior, feeling uneasy, gradually moved closer.
"Look, what is that!"
When they were about a kilometer away from the black mist, the black mist churned and rose with silvery-white flames, and a large gate slowly appeared.
This change stunned all the dragons.
The gate was engulfed in flames, and the Eye of the Dead appeared within the fire.
Pure white eyes, without pupils, only eerie white and silver fire.
No matter which direction or angle you look from, as long as you look at the Eye of the Dead, you will feel as if the Eye of the Dead is staring at you.
The Eye of the Dead swept across the sky as if surveying the heavens and earth, and several dragons stood frozen in mid-air.
Just one second later, they all fell from the sky and crashed heavily to the ground.
"died!"
Jiang Chen witnessed this scene.
The undead stared, unleashing a soul attack that almost instantly incinerated their souls.
Unlike the agony of a soul being burned, they die instantly, without any pain.
These dragons are all above level 80, equivalent to top-tier professionals among humans.
However, they were instantly defeated.
The skill's power was astonishing, exceeding Jiang Chen's expectations.
"If you calculate it, without special items or skills, even a top-tier level 80 professional would be instantly killed by this skill."
"The power of a skill is determined by its level and the strength of my soul. The skill level is fine, it's level 70, but my soul strength is too high."
"My soul strength is now comparable to that of a god, which greatly enhances the power of the Undead Gaze, making it far beyond the ordinary."
Jiang Chen had a general idea of what was going on.
The Undead Gaze skill was unusually powerful, and the experiment was very successful, which pleased him.
The Gate of Flames still stood in mid-air, and it could remain there for about ten minutes as long as Jiang Chen did not withdraw his skill.
At this moment, Jiang Chen had already begun cultivating his third skill.
Skill: Bone Spear!
"Bone Spear (Level 1): Releases a bone spear to attack enemies, dealing physical damage. The spear has powerful penetrating ability, and its power is determined by the skill level and the Spirit attribute."
With a flick of his finger, a white skeletal spear shot out, instantly slicing through the sky and disappearing from sight.
"So fast!"
Jiang Chen was slightly surprised. The speed of the skeletal spear was too fast. In just a second, it had flown at least 10,000 meters.
At that speed, it's almost impossible to dodge.
The faster the speed, the stronger the penetrating power; the impact force generated by speed alone is a considerable attack.
If the skill level continues to increase, the speed might also increase, and the attack power would become even greater.
After trying it a few times, Jiang Chen already knew that the characteristics of the Bone Spear skill were speed, ruthlessness, and accuracy.
Compared to the area-wide attacks of the skeletal fangs, the skeletal spears penetrate at a single point, allowing for point-to-area attacks.
This type of attack is invariably effective against defenses such as barriers, formations, and mage shields.
Then, long, soft bones, accompanied by the sound of breathing, pierced through the heavens and earth, whistling continuously into the sky.
Jiang Chen unleashed five skills per second, attacking with both hands simultaneously.
With the full connectivity talent at work, there's no need to worry about insufficient mental strength.
While practicing with the Bone Spear, Jiang Chen summarized his own bone-based skills.
For defense, there's Skeleton Armor; for control, there's Skeleton Prison; for area-of-effect attacks, there are Skeleton Fangs; and for single-target attacks, there are Skeleton Spears. These four Skeleton skills alone form a very complete skill chain, encompassing offense, defense, and control.
Regardless of its strength or weakness, its completeness alone is unparalleled.
Besides skeletal skills, he also possesses various other skill sets, including summoning, soul, and curse skills.
Once they merge together, they can't help but become strong.
As the skill level increases, the shape of the bone spear gradually changes.
The spears grew thicker and longer, and starting from level 40, spiral-shaped white bones appeared outside the spears.
The spiral-shaped bones propelled the spear to spin rapidly during flight, further enhancing its penetrating power and giving it immense tearing force.
The speed of the skeletal spear is also increasing; it increases slightly with each level up.
Jiang Chen estimated that when the skill reached level 70, the speed of the Bone Spear could reach over 2 meters per second. At that speed, no one except a god-level expert could dodge it within a thousand meters.
Jiang Chen could even picture the enemy being torn to pieces by the skeletal spears.
However, there are fewer and fewer situations now where I have to do things myself, so I won't be able to use the Skeleton Long Soft skill too often.
Jiang Chen wanted to experiment with his skills, but he had no target.
Seeing meteorites falling from the sky, Jiang Chen not only made them his targets.
Meteorites travel at extremely high speeds, thousands of meters per second.
However, it is far inferior to the skeletal spear.
Since it was a skill training exercise anyway, Jiang Chen got a playful idea and aimed his five fingers, shaped like a pistol, at the meteorite streaking across the sky.
A series of booming sounds rang out as skeletal spears shot out, piercing the air and heading towards the meteorite.
For a moment, the skeletal spears flew erratically through the air. Both were moving very fast, and the meteorite orb was smaller than a fist in sight, making it difficult to hit.
Jiang Chen treated it like a game, constantly chasing after the meteorite orb.
The level of the Bone Spear increased without anyone noticing.
After thousands of failures, Jiang Chen finally got lucky and a skeletal spear hit the meteorite orb by sheer luck.
With a deafening roar, a mushroom cloud rose into the air.
Various elements exploded in mid-air, and colorful lights shone in the air.
Jiang Chen, with his sharp eyes, spotted something falling from the explosion and landing not far from him.
Jiang Chen rushed over immediately and found it on the desolate land.
This was a fist-sized crystal, covered in various colors, seemingly filled with impurities and lacking any purity. Jiang Chen sensed various elements within the crystal; wind, water, thunder, fire, and other elements were all present.
The long-unused detection technique is activated.
"Starry Sky Crystal: Formed from the divine power of the Starry Sky God, possessing the power of the Starry Sky God."
God of the Stars?
This was the first time Jiang Chen had ever heard of this deity's name.
In all the materials he had read, there was no record of the God of the Stars.
Either this deity is extremely low-key, or this deity is extremely weak.
Even the weakest of the lowly deities, such as the gods of fire and water, are recorded in history.
Jiang Chen instinctively felt that the God of the Stars should be a low-key deity.
But how could its divine power appear here? The meteorites in the sky still exist, and each fall brings a violent explosion.
After countless years of bombing, the Meteorite Continent had long since become a desolate wasteland.
Monsters that can survive in the Meteorite Continent are at least BOSSes, and most of them are world-class BOSSes.
"Could this be the true nature of the meteorite cluster?"
"The meteors that have persisted for countless years, are they the divine power of the Star God?"
Jiang Chen held the Starry Sky Crystal and looked up at the sky, unable to understand for a moment.
"Try hitting it again!"
Jiang Chen attacked Meteor again with the Bone Spear.
A familiar aura wafted from afar, a familiar scent, a familiar smell—the dragons had arrived again.
Even though they were still thousands of meters apart, the skeletal spears had already been fired.
Jiang Chen immediately turned his gun around and used the dragons as test subjects once again.
Even from such a distance, the dragon warriors had only just caught a glimpse of Jiang Chen when a flash of white light appeared before their eyes.
With a loud bang, a dragon warrior exploded on the spot, turning into a bloody mist.
"What happened!"
"I don't know, I didn't see it clearly!"
Then beams of white light shot out, and the remaining people were terrified and quickly dodged.
Jiang Chen used both hands to unleash a barrage of skeletal spears.
It looked like a child using a slingshot to shoot birds.
They were in a terrible state, flying around haphazardly in the air.
After all, the distance of several thousand meters was quite far, and Jiang Chen's accuracy still needed improvement. "If the distance were within a thousand meters, they wouldn't be able to dodge at all."
Jiang Chen muttered to himself, and with a thought, switched skills.
Suddenly the sky darkened, the Land of the Dead appeared, and then a gate burning with silver flames appeared in the sky.
The door opened, revealing pure white eyes.
The dragon warriors, who were desperately dodging, suddenly trembled and fell to the ground one by one.
Their souls were erased, resulting in immediate death.
Although there are no visible wounds, he is already beyond dead and has no chance of resurrection.
Jiang Chen acted as if he had done something insignificant, and once again used the bone spear to strike the meteorite orb.
