Chapter 370 Repairing the Scepter of Creation, Heading to the Land of Bone Melting
Without the protection of the skeleton armor, Situ Yu's skills alone, while able to block the attacks of the rotting corpses, would inevitably result in some damage.
You might get scratched or even bitten.
The consequences of being injured in such a dangerous environment are self-evident.
Looking at Situ Yu's expression, Jiang Chen knew that she probably hadn't considered all of this.
In fact, Jiang Chen had no idea what the consequences of being bitten would be.
He figured it should be fine, since the Lich General could remove this negative status effect, and his own passive skill made him immune to all negative status effects. Therefore, Jiang Chen judged that even if he were bitten, it wouldn't be a big deal.
He reached out and pressed down, adding bone armor to himself and Situ Yu.
At the same time, the skeleton mage appeared beside him. With a deafening roar, an elemental explosion occurred, blasting the intermediate-level corpse and the rotting demon hound to smithereens.
After all this, Situ Yu finally came to her senses and gasped for breath.
Jiang Chen said softly, "It's alright, don't breathe so heavily, there are still a lot of droplets in the air."
These words startled Situ Yu so much that she quickly covered her mouth.
Jiang Chen chuckled and continued walking forward.
Some things don't need to be said, just remember them.
Braving the skeletal armor, they traversed the storm.
The skeleton mage stayed by his side, clearing away all the monsters along the way.
Situ Yu quickly caught up and asked in a low voice, "How were you able to fly just now?"
Jiang Chen chuckled, "You should know about elemental gems, right?"
Situ Yu thought for a moment and immediately nodded, "I know."
Given Situ Yu's family background, he knows a great deal of information.
Even if you haven't seen it in person, you've probably seen it in books.
That's the advantage of having a rich family heritage.
Jiang Chen said, "I obtained the Lightning Gem and awakened the skill, Lightning Wings, which gave me the ability to fly briefly."
Situ Yu's eyes held a hint of envy. "They're really lucky. The probability of an elemental gem awakening a skill is extremely low, probably less than one in a thousand."
Jiang Chen was taken aback. Was it really that low? He hadn't noticed it before.
Poisonous Gem, Bright Gem, Lightning Gem.
Three gems have already awakened their skills.
Could it be that I was just lucky?
It seems this is the only explanation.
Situ Yu asked again, "Why did you rush into the thunderclouds just now?"
Jiang Chen said, "Absorbing the Creation Lightning can increase immunity to electric elements and also increase experience."
"But isn't it dangerous to do that?"
Situ Yu was startled, thinking that Jiang Chen was having suicidal thoughts.
The lightning was terrifying; Situ Yu could clearly feel its power.
If I were hit like that, I'd probably be half dead.
Jiang Chen endured countless blows without a scratch. He smiled and shook his head, "There was no danger. I knew what I was doing."
As they progress, the monsters along the way gradually become stronger and their levels increase.
But for Jiang Chen, it was as easy as strolling in a garden.
With a few skills from the skeleton mage, the monster was blown to pieces and couldn't even get close.
Situ Yu even felt that the "corpse world" was not as dangerous as her family had said.
It even gives you the illusion of sightseeing.
However, the scenery here is really not very beautiful.
Jiang Chen kept changing direction, searching for the storm.
He needs to create lightning, to create a large amount of lightning.
Gain experience, increase lightning immunity, and repair the Scepter of Creation.
Currently, this appears to be the greatest opportunity in the "corpse world".
In the blink of an eye, Jiang Chen and Situ Yu had been in the "Corpse World" for a month.
Over thirty days, taking detours and turning, they traveled more than 20,000 kilometers.
Jiang Chen found a large number of storms and absorbed tens of thousands of creative lightning bolts.
Before he knew it, he had completed his first level up after changing jobs, reaching level 41.
All four attributes have received a significant boost.
Strength: 48690
Agility: 48690
"Spirit: 112810"
Constitution: 48690
Compared to level 40, the Spirit attribute increased by 6300, and the other three attributes each increased by 840, for a total increase of about 8.
Total attributes: 258880, close to 26.
This improvement is truly astonishing.
Even for a mid-level mythical-grade professional, the total attributes at level 40 are only 6, with each level up increasing by no more than 5000.
The difference in improvement between each level is nearly 90%.
As you accumulate these levels, by level 50, 60, or even higher, the difference in attributes will be enormous.
If it were someone in another profession, the difference would be even more astonishing.
After reaching level 41, Jiang Chen continued to search for storm clusters and absorb the creative lightning.
My experience has increased to 30%.
Jiang Chen felt that if things continued like this, he could easily level up several more times in the "Corpse Realm".
As the Creation Lightning absorbs more and more, the increase in the immunity to electrical elements becomes slower and slower.
After the initial surge of 10%, subsequent storms only increased the increase by about 1%.
After reaching 70%, it takes several attempts to increase by 1%.
Moreover, the rate of increase is continuing to slow down, and now the characteristic of electrical element immunity has increased to 75%.
This 1% increase was achieved after absorbing 10 storm clusters.
Even after absorbing a large amount of lightning, the Creation Scepter remained damaged.
It's just brighter than before, but it's still far from fully recovered.
Over the course of a month, the two traveled through the level 40 monster zone and entered the level 50 monster zone.
Here, Jiang Chen saw the rotting abyss demon.
It wasn't a demonic hound, but a true abyssal demon. Then he encountered dragons, whose warriors were also corrupted and remained there forever.
Jiang Chen confirmed that the great war that year broke out between the three races.
This battle will be incredibly fierce, enough to shatter even a small world.
The person who ultimately unleashed that skill must also be an unparalleled villain.
They turned the whole world into this state, into a wasteland.
After entering the area with level 50 monsters, Jiang Chen released another 100 Skeleton Archmages.
After testing, the Skeleton Archmage's elemental explosion was found to be the most effective in this area.
The rotting monsters were relatively scattered, and with 100 skeleton archmages clearing the way, they could pass through without hindrance.
The land ahead had changed. Pools of water, resembling sulfur, had appeared on the surface.
It's not sulfur, it just looks somewhat similar in color.
It had a strong, pungent odor that even Jiang Chen found difficult to tolerate.
The storm still raged, and the lightning still roared.
Jiang Chen thought of the core area of the ancient battlefield.
It was also after entering the core area that the earth's environment changed.
Does this change also mean that the monsters inside have become unusual?
Jiang Chen said slowly, "We're about to enter the area with level 60 monsters."
Situ Yu tilted her head. "When I was little, my father seemed to have mentioned this place to me. Let me think."
Seeing that she was deep in thought, Jiang Chen did not disturb her.
Situ Yu searched her memory, some of her childhood memories fading. Situ Liang had told her about the "corpse world" back then, as if it were a story.
Finally, a light shone in her beautiful eyes, "I remember now."
"This area is called the Land of Bone Melting. The ponds there are extremely corrosive. You must not fall in."
Jiang Chen asked, "Is there anything else?"
Situ Yu nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes, yes, Father also said that there is a terrifying monster in the pond of the Bone-Melting Land that will drag people in and eat them."
“When I was a child, I was disobedient, and he would use this to scare me.”
"If you scare me, I won't dare to disobey."
At this point, Situ Yu blushed slightly, recounting embarrassing stories from her childhood.
Jiang Chen didn't think this was just something to scare a child; it was probably true.
The water in the pond smelled foul, somewhat like rainwater from a storm.
It's just that it's much more concentrated than rainwater, and its corrosiveness is definitely much stronger.
As for the monsters living inside, they are very likely to exist.
The world is full of wonders; even molten lava can harbor monsters, so it's not surprising that such foul-smelling water could contain them.
"Let's be careful."
For safety's sake, Jiang Chen summoned 100 skeleton berserkers to lead the way.
The skeleton archmage then advanced around the two of them.
As soon as the skeleton berserkers entered the Bone-Melting Land, Jiang Chen immediately sensed that they had been injured.
The air in the Bone-Melting Land is filled with corrosive gases, like poison, constantly harming the skeletons.
Fortunately, the damage wasn't severe. Their skeletal armor was also activated naturally after they entered the Bone-Melting Land.
Situ Yu knew that she wouldn't have gotten this far without Jiang Chen.
The most likely outcome is that I'll become one of those people here, a walking corpse.
Wow!
Suddenly, a splash erupted from a pond, and a tentacle shot out from the water, coiling around a skeleton berserker and dragging it into the pond with a whoosh.
