Looking down at the entire Hissing Wind Valley, it looked like a toad shaped basin filled with the aura of death. At the center, a blood-red energy barrier protected the graveyard. It was obvious that this was the defense system of the Grand Magus Necromancer. I had to kill this OP mage if I wanted to get close to the Hissing Wind Iron Bone Warhorse with unknown stats. Ignoring everything else, just the name alone was enough to excite me. I was definitely going to kill this guy. Everyone else, please read normally:!
… …
I urged the little dragon to slowly descend at the entrance of the valley. I was going to grind anyway, so I might as well kill my way in from the outside. Plus, the quest didn't have a time limit, so I had plenty of time to grind this map.
The little dragon floated about a meter above the ground, its four claws dancing as it scratched the grass on the ground. Divine Dragons always looked like immortals when they appeared in the clouds. If I dyed my hair white and wore a green robe, I might be able to dress up as Murong Ziying.
The little wolf howled softly beside the little dragon. At the same time, I summoned my apparition. It would be a waste if I didn't use it. It had a 20 minute cooldown, so I could use it again at any time.
… …
The grass was covered in a layer of blood, and the aura of death in the surroundings was getting thicker and thicker. Not far from the entrance of the valley was a huge lumberyard, but it was obvious that the lumberyard had been abandoned for many years. Many of the buildings had collapsed, and a rusty axe was still chopping at a towering tree. Next to it was a pile of white bones, and the clothes had long since rotted away.
There were teeth marks on the bones. It was obvious that this person had been killed by a Corpse Eater, and his corpse had been devoured. It could be said that it was a very tragic scene.
Not far away, at the edge of a pile of rotten wood covered with black fungus, a group of ghouls appeared. Moreover, they were enhanced ghouls. Each of them was hunched over, and their bodies were covered with green scales. Tsk tsk, they looked like they had mutated. This was something that had never been seen in the outside world.
I sighed as I looked at the Cyan Scale Corpse Eaters' stats. Admittedly, their Attack couldn't compare to the Level 245 Venomous Scorpion, but their Defense was much higher. More importantly, there were simply too many Cyan Scale Corpse Eaters. The Lumberyard in front of me was littered with red dots. God knows how many there were, but it was also a good opportunity for me to grind levels. After all, Demon Rank mobs were very rare, and I hadn't even seen them in Dragonbone Mountain Range. I was afraid that I would only be able to find them if I flew to this barren land.
Right now, the majority of Heavenblessed's players were grinding FB dungeons, from F Rank to S Rank dungeons. Every day, the dungeons would refresh once a week, and the dungeons would be cleared no matter what. There were probably fewer people like me who were grinding dungeons than there were people who could grind levels in a leisurely manner.
I aimed at the closest Corpse Eater, raised my arm, and fired a Dragon Slaying Slash + Blade Boomerang combo!
“133838！”
“163727！”
The Corpse Eater roared and charged me the moment it was hit. It swung its claws and hit the Ancient Divine Dragon, but its Defense was high, and its Attack was a bit lacking. It only dealt 8000 + damage, and it wasn't much of a threat to me. The Purple Ying Sword had a 20% lifesteal effect, so a single slash was all it took. Everyone else was just watching it like normal.
I gave it a try. The Corpse Eater's Bite dealt around 12k damage, and its Claw Slash dealt less than 10k damage. Speed Boost increased its attack speed, so its basic attacks didn't deal more than 9000 damage. Therefore, it was fairly safe. Even with my 500k max HP, I could endure the attacks of 3 to 5 Corpse Eaters at the same time. I had a full set of super equipment, so killing normal mobs wasn't a problem at all.
Behind me, my Sunstrider Cloak fluttered in the wind. I swung my sword and dealt 7x damage, one-shotting the Corpse Eater. Now that I had a good grasp of the Corpse Eater's strength, it was time to grind!
I didn't need to discuss with anyone when I was alone. I could just do it as soon as I made up my mind.
I looked around and saw that there was a huge pile of wood and a dilapidated building at a 75 degree angle. It was a pretty good choke point, so I didn't say anything else. I ordered the Phantom Wolf King and my apparition to get into position while I urged the Ancient Divine Dragon to fly over the heads of the Cyan Scaled Corpse Ghouls. The pitiful Cyan Scaled Corpse Ghouls didn't know how to use ranged attacks, so they chased after me while howling in pain like mad dogs. Unfortunately, they couldn't reach me. In the end, I was followed by a whole horde of Cyan Scaled Corpse Ghouls. It was a spectacular sight to behold.
I couldn't be too greedy now that I had brought over a thousand Corpse Eaters with me. I immediately changed directions, and the Ancient Divine Dragon reached the choke point. Then, I landed on the ground and turned around to attack!
The little dragon's body was too long, so I sat at the front while the back half of my body swam above the wood. I looked very relaxed and carefree. At the same time, the auspicious clouds around me brought a trace of righteousness to this deathly Hissing Wind Valley.
A horde of Cyan Scaled Corpse Eaters appeared in front of me. My heart was filled with joy. There were so many undead creatures! This was great! Once I killed them all, I could absorb their soul sparks. How could I be an Asura King? Asura God was the true path of a king! I had to climb to the top to become an Asura!
… …
I immediately raised the Purple Ying Sword and executed Burning Blade Slash when a group of Cyan Scale Corpse Eaters got close to me. Three flaming blades cut through the mobs and dealt a string of damage numbers. My basic attacks dealt at least 100k damage, and the critical hits were close to 300k. 7x damage was close to a million, and 14x damage was over 2 million. Combined with the splash effect, a miracle happened. A single Burning Blade Slash killed at least 30% of the Level 245 Demon Rank Corpse Eaters, and the rest of them only had low HP. God damn, the Ghost Chariot Card was so powerful that I could ignore some of the Defense of the Cyan Scale Corpse Eaters. Naturally, the Cyan Scale Corpse Eaters' high Defense advantage was nullified. Fans of the book loved to read: The Devil Chariot Card.
A white light of experience floated toward me. It felt so good to be able to gobble up experience...
At the same time, the Corpse Eaters dropped a ton of experience as well. Demon Rank mobs had a very low chance of dropping Immortal-grade equipment, and this was one of my hopes. My eagerness to slay these mobs was especially wonderful.
I activated Summon the Wind and Summon the Rain, and the little dragon immediately raised its proud head and let out a dragon roar that pierced the clouds. Lightning flashed, thunder rumbled, and lightning rained down on the boss's territory. The scene of slaughter was exhilarating, and the mount skill also buffed my stats, giving me the splash effect. As a result, hordes of Cyan Scaled Corpse Eaters turned into experience. It couldn't be helped. The Cyan Scaled Corpse Eaters' Defense was enhanced, but the little dragon's Summon the Wind and Summon the Rain was a magic attack, so it dealt more damage to heavily-armored Corpse Eaters!
Clang clang clang...
A horde of approaching Corpse Eaters gnawed at my Dragon God Shield and Heaven-burning Armor with all their might. There were even a few who didn't want to live and jumped onto the dragon's back to gnaw at my Sun Chaser Cloak. Speechless, I dropped my sword to the ground and used War Crush, clearing out all the mobs around me and restoring all of the 100k HP I had lost. The Cyan Scaled Corpse Eaters were very dense, and there were at least 4 to 5 of them that could hit me at the same time. I lost HP quickly, but I also recovered HP quickly. This was the way to level up through battle, and it was also the reason why lifesteal was so popular among players.
It was said that in Tianfeng City, there was a DS student who found an Earth-tier ring that added a 9% lifesteal effect. Then, this ring was bought by an idiot coal boss online, spending a total of 2.7 million RMB, and then … then that short, ugly, poor DS student drove a Porsche Cayenne to pick up the school belle at Mo Tai 168 Hotel in the second week … ….
That was why people said that people should have dreams. Girls and cars were always fighting for their dreams, and they could surround you at any moment. Don't give up on yourself, or you'll never have another chance.
… …
In a short five minutes, over a thousand Corpse Eaters were dead and kneeling in front of me. They dropped a lot of equipment, but I only picked up Earth, Heaven, and Immortal-grade equipment. Some of them had Attack or Defense + 30%, and some of them had lifesteal or ignored Defense. The rest of the loot wasn't worth my attention. After searching for a long time, I only managed to pick up three Heaven-grade equipment. The Cyan-Scaled Corpse Eaters were much easier to kill than the Hypertoxic Scorpions, but they were all poor bastards. My fellow readers were shocked.
I picked up the Zi Ying Sword and looked at my experience bar. Hmm, I really was leveling up fast by killing demonic creatures. I had already leveled up by 7%. I should be able to reach Level 208 at the very least after clearing this Lumberyard. I should be able to reach Level 209 by the end of the day.
It took me almost ten minutes to absorb all the Corpse Eaters' undead soul sparks. My chest was brimming with undead energy. Although I was still a long way from evolving, I had to take my time to do so.
I smiled and continued with my original plan. I stuck to the mobs and aggroed them with the Ancient Divine Dragon. It was a little too much fun to kill mobs that didn't have any ranged attacks!
… …
Almost two hours later, I had cleared out the entire lumberyard and killed all the Cyan Scale Corpse Eaters. As for the Cyan Scale Corpse Eater cards, they increased attack speed by 25% and Defense by 10%. Compared to the Ghost Chariot Card and the Blaze War God Card, they were trash. I didn't need them. I had 900 stacks of Sealing Crystals in my bag, so there was no room for trash cards.
"Roar roar …"
The little wolf stared into the distance before turning around and wagging its tail at me. It looked like it had noticed a super powerful boss waiting for us to challenge.
"Let's go!"
Patting the Ancient Divine Dragon's head, a man, a dragon, and a wolf continued to traverse the dangerous canyon.
