Chapter 483 Passing the final test, there is a crystal in the square.
The ninth passage is the final checkpoint and also the most difficult part of the journey.
According to the topographical map provided by Antares, passing through this passage will lead to the location of the giant crystal.
While waiting for the Undying Aura to cool down, Jiang Chen had already devised a detailed tactical plan, which he was now executing step by step.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, there shouldn't be any problems.
Jiang Chen dislikes surprises, so he always makes thorough preparations.
One of the ten thousand skeleton archers remained outside the passage. Even after entering the passage and the path back disappeared, Jiang Chen attempted to recall one of the skeleton archers.
After verifying it, he felt relieved.
The disappearance of the passage will not affect the summoning exchange between you and the skeleton.
As Jiang Chen advanced, lightning suddenly flashed and exploded silently.
Compared to when we first entered the Thunder Burial Canyon, the power of the lightning has now increased to 5.5 times.
This is equivalent to a skeleton armor with 31 constitution becoming extremely fragile.
Jiang Chen only advanced 500 meters before stopping to rest.
During a break, he looked up at the three bright, twinkling stars overhead.
The three stars represented three Thunder God Beasts, each reaching level 83. Jiang Chen took a deep breath, rested, and continued onward.
At an altitude of approximately 1000 meters, Jiang Chen stopped again to rest.
Finally, he collected all the skeleton berserkers.
After taking a deep breath, Jiang Chen rushed out.
He ran a kilometer step by step, with perfect accuracy, and just then, three stars fell from the sky at the same time.
Under the starlight, the three lightning beasts charged towards Jiang Chen.
A red curse and a blue ice lich appeared simultaneously.
The three Thunder God Beasts immediately slowed down.
Jiang Chen dragged them along, continuing to run deeper into the passage without ever looking back.
The lich generals inside and outside the passage began to busy themselves with healing; as long as the undead legion was still there, Jiang Chen would not fall easily.
Jiang Chen ignored the lightning that exploded on his body and ran forward recklessly.
This time, he ran an unusually long distance, covering more than two thousand meters in one go.
At this point, we were not far from the entrance to the passage, about 3000 meters away.
3000 meters was a safe distance he had planned in advance, enough to avoid the self-destruct range of the three Thunder God Beasts.
There are certain rules in the Burial Thunder Canyon, and everything happens according to those rules without any surprises.
Whether it's encountering an enemy a thousand meters away or the self-destruction of the Thunder God Beast, it's all based on pre-determined rules.
Jiang Chen has now mastered most of the rules and knows what to do.
He unleashed 5000 skeleton berserkers, quickly diverting aggro from himself to the three lightning beasts, and began to besiege them.
Jiang Chen quickly retreated, moving a thousand meters away. He didn't immediately use the "Strong Soldier" skill, but instead first extracted the essence blood of the God of Poison and began summoning the Poison Lich.
Soon, a highly venomous lich with an extremely unstable aura appeared before him.
The venomous lich charged toward the three lightning beasts as if it had teleported.
The three lightning beasts were surrounded by the skeleton berserkers, almost as if they were gathered together.
This was exactly what Jiang Chen had planned beforehand: to gather them together and let the highly poisonous lich self-destruct at their center.
If the self-destruction succeeds, it can poison them at the same time.
In this way, not only can the damage from the Ten Directions Thunder be avoided, but even the damage from the Thunder God Beast's self-destruction can be avoided.
After releasing the highly poisonous lich, Jiang Chen retreated again for safety.
He also kept 5000 skeleton berserkers in his summoning queue, just in case. If the poisonous lich killed them, the skeleton berserkers could still launch a further attack.
After all, among the undead legions, the burst damage of the skeleton berserkers is unmatched, especially when combined with the powerful unit skill.
Jiang Chen anticipated all possible scenarios and tried his best to minimize the occurrence of accidents.
As the venomous lich advanced, it was constantly bombarded by lightning, and its aura became increasingly chaotic.
As Jiang Chen retreated, he kept a close eye on the venomous lich, fearing that it might be blown up by lightning halfway through its retreat.
Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the highly poisonous lich arrive at the designated self-destruct point.
A burst of green gas silently exploded in the canyon, engulfing all three lightning beasts.
The self-destruct radius of the Venomous Lich is not large, only about thirty or forty meters. In contrast, the Lightning Beast is enormous, with a length approaching 20 meters.
If Jiang Chen's calculations are slightly off, the highly poisonous lich will have a hard time covering them all.
Amidst the intense poisonous gas, the bodies of the three Thunder God Beasts rotted at a visible rate.
The Thunder God Beasts were not real creatures; they did not utter any screams.
As their bodies decayed, lightning leaked out from them.
Lightning flashed everywhere.
Jiang Chen's gaze was fixed on the body. He finally realized that the Thunder God Beast's body was entirely composed of electric elements.
Every inch of it was filled with electrical elements, something he hadn't noticed before.
Now, as its body decays, a large amount of electric element surges out, and he finally discovers it. The Thunder God Beast is a pure combat puppet composed of electric element.
What kind of powerful being would create such a puppet?
Compared to the Thunder God Beast, the Dragon Clan's War Golems are utterly insignificant and incomparable.
Suddenly, lightning erupted, and Jiang Chen sensed danger, immediately retreating quickly.
The undead legion inside the passage also retreated.
The Thunder God Beast is about to self-destruct!
Their mechanism is to self-destruct after suffering a certain degree of damage.
The self-destruction of the highly poisonous liches immediately brought them to the brink of death.
Without needing to go through a phase of extremely powerful skills, they immediately began to self-destruct.
Jiang Chen retreated frantically, with little time remaining, no more than two seconds.
Lightning illuminated the passage, and the three lightning beasts self-destructed, creating a radius of 2000 meters.
All the skeleton berserkers perished without exception.
However, compared to previous losses, this one is actually the smallest.
This was also because Jiang Chen had used the essence and blood of the God of Poison and accumulated experience from the previous two times.
After the explosion, the passage was completely empty.
Only a wisp of green, highly toxic substance remains, and it will persist for a considerable period of time, not dissipating anytime soon.
Three more stars appeared in the sky, but they were dim and would take a long time to recover.
It's finally over... Jiang Chen sighed and continued on his way.
Huh, where's the lightning?
He didn't observe any lightning as he traveled. After a moment's thought, he understood.
He has already completed the game.
Having defeated the three Thunder God Beasts, you have successfully passed the test.
If even the Thunder God Beast can be dealt with, what is the lightning in the mere passage? There's no need for it to exist.
Jiang Chen could roughly guess the thoughts of the person who set up the assessment.
He recalled the undead legion, replenished his berserkers, and continued onward.
By the time he had traversed the 10,000-meter passage, the undead army had been fully replenished.
It has everything: "Strong Soldier" skill, Undying Aura, Poisonous Blood Essence, and Fire God Blood Essence.
With peak combat power, Jiang Chen was full of confidence.
My mindset now is completely different from when I first arrived in the lower space.
Beyond the passage lies a not-so-spacious plaza. At the far end of the plaza, a giant crystal stands, connecting to the canyon.
Jiang Chen did not immediately step into the square.
He stood outside the square, observing carefully.
It's the final moment; he absolutely won't make a mistake at this crucial juncture.
The square was covered with all sorts of strange runes.
Although Jiang Chen didn't recognize him, he had seen similar ones before.
These are divine runes.
It is a language among the gods.
Divine runes have a variety of uses; they can be used to transmit information or to inscribe magic arrays.
The plaza is circular, and its surface is covered with mysterious runes, resembling an ancient magic circle.
Jiang Chen stared at it for a long time, but still couldn't fathom its mystery. To get closer to the central crystal, he had to cross this plaza.
After a brief hesitation, Jiang Chen suddenly laughed, "Why bother with this? I have nowhere to retreat."
He realized he was overthinking things; there were no other options left.
What else can we do but keep moving forward?
So he left the undead army at the edge of the plaza, took a deep breath, and stepped into the plaza.
The moment Jiang Chen stepped into the square, the entire square suddenly lit up.
Beneath the ground, purple crystals emerged like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, sparkling with a mesmerizing light.
Upon closer inspection, it appears that electric currents are flowing inside these crystals, filled with the power of electrical elements.
Immediately afterwards, these purple crystals seemed to come alive, shooting into Jiang Chen's body like streaks of purple lightning.
