Chapter 267 - 110: Necromancer
He rushed forward, unleashed his Undead Flame, and completely annihilated them.
Having cleared the spirits from the passage, Chen Yu continued deeper into the pyramid.
Soon, the space opened up before him.
Chen Yu had arrived inside the pyramid.
A massive chamber.
In the center, a shimmering purple ball of light pulsed, revealed to be a massive congregation of spirits.
And in the depths of the chamber, chained to a pillar with pitch-black iron links, was a ten-foot-tall, red-furred monster.
A terrifying aura filled the air.
It was a level-eight monster.
It was covered in long, red fur, its features obscured, but its aura was incredibly powerful.
Even stronger than a typical level-eight.
While not as mighty as the avian Lava Monster he had killed before, it was by no means weak.
As Chen Yu’s gaze fell upon it, the red-furred monster seemed to sense him. It slowly lifted its head, a pair of scarlet eyes locking onto Chen Yu.
Its eyes were filled with slaughter and brutality!
Like a mindless, bloodthirsty beast!
"Human, kill!"
In mid-air, the huge purple orb of light vibrated, and a horde of spirits swarmed toward Chen Yu in unison.
HUM—!
Chen Yu instantly activated his Undead Skill, unleashing a powerful Undead Flame to incinerate them.
Agonized screams echoed throughout the pyramid.
In an instant, Chen Yu had wiped out all the Undead in the chamber.
The Undead Flame was their perfect counter, completely suppressing them. Dealing with them posed no difficulty at all.
Having dealt with the spirits, Chen Yu turned his attention to the red-furred monster!
SWOOSH—!
With a single step, Chen Yu appeared before the red-furred monster.
"ROAR!!!"
The red-furred monster opened its mouth and roared, releasing a foul stench. Chen Yu frowned and took a small step back.
’That smell is seriously overwhelming.’
’It’s practically a magical attack!’
"Hu... humans... all... all must die!" a broken, hoarse voice rasped out. The red-furred monster stared at Chen Yu, its eyes growing even more savage.
It looked as if it wanted to devour him at any moment.
But the black chains held the red-furred monster fast, preventing it from moving.
Chen Yu’s gaze fell upon the black chains binding the red-furred monster.
Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to restrain a level-eight monster, even with chains forged from special metals.
And yet, this was the scene before him.
The red-furred monster was bound by chains.
’Hm? There seems to be some kind of power attached to these!’
Chen Yu sensed a peculiar aura on the black chains.
It wasn’t the chains themselves holding the red-furred monster, but a special power contained within them.
This special power was the true source of the red-furred monster’s suppression.
HUM—!
Chen Yu raised a hand, and a long, slender Tang dao appeared in his grasp.
The red-furred monster was chained and immobilized; how could he possibly pass up such a golden opportunity?
’Just kill it directly!’
SWISH!
He unleashed a swift slash, the blade seemingly tearing through the air itself. But just an inch from the red-furred monster’s head, the sword stopped.
To be precise, a powerful energy field had manifested, blocking his blade.
"Human... Heh heh, you can’t kill me!" the red-furred monster laughed, its face a mask of savagery.
’It’s protected by energy...’
Chen Yu withdrew his blade.
He looked at the red-furred monster. The invisible energy covering its body was imperceptible, as if it didn’t exist.
BANG!
He threw a powerful punch, but just like before, his fist stopped an inch away from the red-furred monster, unable to advance any further.
The invisible energy had blocked his attack again, but this time, the entire pyramid trembled.
’Is this energy coming from the pyramid?’
Feeling the pyramid’s tremor, Chen Yu detected a subtle change.
The invisible energy was connected to the pyramid. To break it, he would probably have to destroy the pyramid itself.
’Then I’ll break it!’
Without hesitation, Chen Yu activated his Force Field amplification. Heaven-shaking power surged through him, and the veins on his arm bulged.
"Hah!"
With a low shout, Chen Yu unleashed his full strength, throwing a punch that struck like a dragon.
BOOM!!
The punch landed, and the entire pyramid let out a massive roar.
THUD!
Chen Yu unleashed a second punch without hesitation.
RUMBLE—!
This punch shattered the invisible energy, and the pyramid collapsed with a deafening crash.
At the same time, a terrifyingly berserk aura was released.
The red-furred monster had also broken free from its restraints!
A bloodthirsty, violent aura filled the air!
「 」
"Wh-what’s happening!"
Outside the pyramid, Zhuang Bo had been waiting patiently. He saw the pyramid tremble and subconsciously stepped back. But in the next second, the thousand-meter-tall pyramid suddenly collapsed.
A horrifying aura rose up!
Zhuang Bo retreated at top speed, his eyes fixed on the sky.
The moment the pyramid collapsed, two auras shot into the heavens!
"It’s that monster!"
Zhuang Bo’s face was filled with horror.
BOOM—!
A massive explosion echoed from the sky. A powerful shockwave swept through the surroundings, obliterating the fog and revealing a large, clear area.
Two figures stood in the sky.
Chen Yu looked at the red-furred monster, a strange light flashing in his eyes.
He didn’t know how long the monster had been imprisoned.
But to possess such strength immediately after breaking free... ’It really can’t be underestimated.’
However, the stronger it was, the better the news for him!
As long as he killed it, the amount of Source of Life it dropped would surely be immense.
HUM!!
With a single thought, an extremely cold aura swept across the sky. Translucent snowflakes began to fall, and under Chen Yu’s control, they all descended upon the red-furred monster.
Every single snowflake contained a terrifying chill.
As the snowflakes landed, the red-furred monster was instantly frozen solid.
It turned into an ice sculpture and began to free-fall toward the ground.
But the moment it was about to hit the ground, the ice shattered, and the red-furred monster’s figure burst out.
A red glow enveloped its body, but its aura had diminished considerably.
The snowflakes hadn’t managed to kill it with ice, but they had still inflicted significant damage.
Chen Yu controlled the freezing world, sending streams of snowflakes rushing toward the red-furred monster.
HUM!!!
The red light flared, and the red-furred monster unleashed a red shockwave that dispersed the snowflakes.
SWOOSH—!
In the next instant, however, the red-furred monster burst forth with astonishing speed, rocketing into the distance.
’Trying to run...’
Chen Yu’s expression was calm. He activated Godspeed, and in the next second, he directly intercepted the red-furred monster.
THUD!
A heavy punch slammed into the red-furred monster’s body.
Its body shot away like a stone, sent flying over ten thousand meters by the punch before crashing heavily to the ground.
