Chapter 186: Eternal Guard

Although the strength of these undead assassins is not weak, and they have an extremely strong ability to conceal their own breath, when they have nothing to hide in front of Yue Shen and Thor, they completely lose the possibility of dealing with them.

While possessing ghostly speed, they also lost their external spiritual power as strong as those skeleton knights just now, even though their attacks had extremely strong penetrating abilities, and they could easily inflict huge damage on Yue Shen. It's a pity that before they could attack and land on Yue Shen's body, their blue-gray figures had already dissolved in the dragon flames that erupted from the gray dragon teeth in Yue Shen's hands.

The strength of the undead assassins that appeared this time obviously had the strength of the sixth-order powerhouses, but the consumption they caused to Yue Shen's spiritual power was not even as much as that of the hard bones in front of them.

After absorbing all the white light clusters obtained from the undead assassin's body and transforming them into spiritual power that could be used by himself, Yue Shen did not stop any longer, and directly took Thor to the deeper part of the tower to meet the fourth level of the first layer of the Tower of Eternity.

As for Long Haochen, who had tried his best to pass the test of the first level of the enhanced version of the Tower of Eternity, it seemed that he had been brought back to the Holy Demon Continent by Haoyue and went back to recover his spiritual power.

The opponents that Yue Shen had to deal with in the fourth level were four skeleton warriors and two undead assassins.

How else to say that knights and assassins are the best partners? Although the strength of such opponents was much lower than Yue Shen, they relied on their combat experience that had been engraved into their muscle memory to deal with Yue Shen for a long time before they were defeated by Yue Shen one by one.

Although the white light cluster obtained from the undead guards who had already been defeated could only be used to restore a small amount of spiritual power consumed in Yue Shen's body, and could not be used for internal spiritual power cultivation, Yue Shen's battle with these experienced ancient powerhouses was not completely fruitless.

Calling out the skill attribute panel, Yue Shen's gaze fell on the ancient combat skill specialization skill that had not yet been unlocked.

Although Yue Shen still has enough skill points at hand at this time, considering that the skill points required to master powerful new skills in the future will become more and more exaggerated, Yue Shen is not in a hurry to fill up his skills at this time and a half, and he wants to save some flowers.

After all, there are still many levels in the Tower of Eternity, and there is no way to skip them, so Yue Shen is naturally not worried that there will not be enough opponents for him to brush up on his proficiency and master his skills.

After a short rest, Yue Shen continued to start the assessment of the fifth level.

This time, it wasn't the lightning-fast undead assassins that appeared in his perception, but just four tall skeleton knights.

Unlike before, this time the skeleton knights that came out of the ground each had an additional light bone helmet, and the weapons in their hands were also changed to dual swords, spears, giant hammers, and the standard bone knife and bone shield.

On top of that, they each ride a tall horse. Of course, it is a skeleton war horse like them, and the surface of the horse's body is also exuding a strong aura of divine light attribute and death.

"Anyway, I've had this feeling since I just started." Seeing that the assessment opponent of the fifth level had already appeared in front of him, Yue Shen not only was not in a hurry to make a move, but also asked unhurriedly: "Did you fight with me in the previous levels?" ”

Seeing that the other party didn't say anything for a long time, Yue Shen thought that it was his own illusion just now, but just as he wanted to draw his sword and fight them, the four skeleton knights riding on the skeleton horses slowly nodded at him.

"I said how familiar it is." Yue Shen laughed and said, "But the order you received should be to do everything you can to prevent me from passing through here, so fighting is a must, right?" ”

Only this time, the four skeleton knights did not make any response to Yue Shen. A loud roar of skeleton horses sounded, and the four skeleton knights charged at Yue Shen in unison.

"Humβ€”"

I saw that the figure of Thor hovering around Yue Shen's body, whose body length was only about one and a half meters, suddenly skyrocketed, and his blue body turned into a color like white porcelain, and the original five sharp knife-like claws were also covered with a layer of golden armor.

I saw that the dragon flame exuding a scorching high temperature came from the surface of Sol's body, and the gray dragon teeth in Yue Shen's hand instantly appeared, and the originally deserted hall became stuffy because of this.

"Brushβ€”"

A slash filled with scorching aura was slashed out by Yue Shen and headed straight for the skeleton knight who was rushing towards him.

The Skeleton Knight, who originally thought that he had figured out all of Yue Shen's attack methods, never thought that his opponent would actually use the Shura Slash that they were capable of.

Although they had already revealed the cultivation method of this skill to Yue Shen when they were defeated by Yue Shen for the first time before, they didn't expect that Yue Shen would be able to master it and use it in actual combat in such a short period of time.

What's even more incredible to them is that Yue Shen's almost arm-like release action not only doesn't look like a beginner at all, but is even inferior to them who have already burned their combat experience to their souls.

I saw that the dark cyan soul flame in the eyes of the skeleton knight led by him was swaying at an extremely fast speed, and he actually had a moment of trance after seeing Yue Shen's Shura slash.

By the time he came back to his senses, there was not much distance left between the Shura Slash and him, and the scorching waves of qi were already able to sting his soul.

Without the slightest hesitation, the skeleton knight instantly turned over and dismounted, and his huge figure fell to the ground with a loud bang.

As for his mount, the skeleton horse, it was so lucky, and it couldn't stop its momentum, and it was instantly split in two by Yue Shen's Shura slash.

"Roarβ€”"

Thor, who had transformed into the form of the Gray Lord, also changed his usual habit of fishing, and while roaring angrily, two huge golden dragon claws swung directly at the skeleton knight who rushed from the other side.

……

Long Haochen, who had been taken away from the Tower of Eternity by Haoyue and returned to the room of the Demon Hunter Group Hut, Level 22, had a bitter expression on his face at this time.

Picked up by Haoyue and put on the bed, Long Haochen looked at Haoyue with a puzzled expression and asked, "Haoyue, why do you say that Brother Yue is suddenly so eager to start cultivating the necromancer's inheritance?" Or was he like this because he was bewitched by that Yin Lex? ”

Listening to Long Haochen's question, Thor's three heads were also very anthropomorphic, revealing a thoughtful expression.

After a while, Haoyue's three heads shook their heads at Long Haochen with great certainty.

"Then do you think it's wrong for me to stop him from cultivating the Necromancer Inheritance?" Being very surprised by Haoyue's answer to himself, Long Haochen couldn't help but ask another question.

It's just that Haoyue didn't answer him this time, but tilted her head and didn't know what she was thinking.

"I almost forgot, Haoyue, you can't stand on the same perspective as us about what the Necromancer profession means to the Templar Alliance." Long Haochen saw that Haoyue didn't move for a long time, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "If it weren't for the catastrophe caused by the necromancer ten thousand years ago, I guess I wouldn't have to worry so much about Brother Yue's affairs now." After all, aside from the fact that the profession of necromancer needs to be desecrated to gain power, this profession is still very strong, and it can become an important force for us humans to compete with demons......"

"However, since this force is not recognized and accepted by the Temple Alliance, then I can't just watch Brother Yue continue like this." I saw Long Haochen struggling to sit up from the bed, "Brother Yue with the physique of the Child of Light should be the hero of the alliance, how can he master the power of this taboo?" ”

As Long Haochen spoke, he turned over and got out of bed, leaning against the wall and about to go out.

"I'm going to go to Brother Yue to make it clear." Long Haochen said with a stubborn face.

Haoyue tilted her head, obviously not knowing why her brother was so concerned about Yue Shen's affairs. However, seeing that Long Haochen did not have difficulty moving, Haoyue also took the initiative to poke out his head and stabilize Long Haochen's figure.

It's just that because the door is too small, Haoyue can only wait for Long Haochen to arrive outside the demon hunting hut, and then teleport to his side through the blood contract.

It's just that before Long Haochen could open the door, his door was opened by Cai'er, who came to find him.

Looking at Long Haochen, who was scarred all over his body and the spiritual power in his body was almost exhausted, Cai'er was stunned for a moment.

"Haochen, what's wrong with you?" Cai'er stepped forward to support Long Haochen with a concerned expression and asked, "Haven't you been cultivating in the room since just now?" ”

Faced with Cai'er's question, Long Haochen couldn't help but panic. After all, the matter about the Tower of Eternity was very important to Yue Shen, and he definitely couldn't say it casually.

After thinking for a moment, Long Haochen coughed lightly and said, "I was teleported to its plane by Haoyue just now to help solve the danger. ”

Haoyue: "??? ”

"I see." Cai'er didn't seem to doubt what Long Haochen said at all, and saw her say in a reproachful tone: "Next time there is such a thing, you must let me go over to help too, otherwise what if you can't come back, what will I do?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Good. Long Haochen was silent for a moment and then replied.

"So now that you're back, why don't you recuperate in your room?" Cai'er asked again.

"I have some things that I need to discuss with my brother-in-law." Long Haochen thought about it, it was better to tell the truth this time, "The stakes are very high. Long Haochen emphasized.

"I'll take you there now."

Long Haochen: "??? ”

……

"Thank you for your advice." After dealing with the four skeleton knights, Yue Shen also saluted the broken bones scattered on the ground.

Looking at the Ancient Combat Skill Specialization Skill that was about to be unlocked, Yue Shen also showed an extremely relieved expression on his face. It's not in vain that he has been fighting with these ancient powerhouses for so long.

You seem to have gained a lot. ’

Sol, who had re-transformed into the form of a starry sky divine beast, flew to Yue Shen's side and said.

"yes." Yue Shen nodded slightly, watching the scorched bones on the ground reintegrate into the floor, Yue Shen also looked up at the deepest part of the first layer of the Tower of Eternity.

The next step should be the last assessment of the first layer, right?

Yue Shen didn't take a break this time, but walked forward directly.

As if sensing Yue Shen's arrival, he saw a white light falling from the sky and falling not far in front of Yue Shen.

Unlike the necromantic creatures that appeared before that only flashed out of the floor or appeared out of thin air, this white light appeared as a pillar of light that stalled there.

Then, at the top of the pillar of light, a red light quietly appeared. At the bottom of the pillar of light, there was a tall skeleton that suddenly appeared at an unknown time.

This time, the opponent was obviously no longer the skeleton knight that Yue Shen had fought before, because in the eyes of that Gundam skeleton, there was no dark cyan soul flame beating at all.

As that red light continued to fall, Yue Shen could also see clearly that it was actually a powerful resentful spirit with a body like substance. I saw the red spirit descend the pillar of light, directly into the tall skeleton below.

Although Yue Shen already knew who his opponent was this time, Yin Lex's memory that had been imprinted in his mind through the eternal melody had unlocked it, and the name of this resentful spirit immediately appeared in his consciousness.

The soul of the strong.

Only a strong person with excellent talent in life can retain his original attributes after death. And once they become real necromantic creatures, they can also inherit the strength of their lives to a great extent.

While Yue Shen was reading through the memories of the eternal melody, the red soul of the powerhouse had also completed the fusion with the tall skeleton below, and the originally dull bones turned fiery red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The originally lifeless skeleton warrior slowly raised his head, and his black eye sockets were now completely occupied by the two thick flames that suddenly appeared.

Not only that, but after its already tall body was fused with the soul of a strong man, the bones that seemed to be extremely hard grew rapidly in a tooth-aching rattling sound, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a huge skeleton warrior with a height of three meters.

Yue Shen: This guy never thought that he would be able to develop again after he died......

Although the aura exuded by the giant skeleton warrior who appeared in front of Yue Shen's eyes this time was the same sixth-order as the skeleton knight and undead assassin he had dealt with before, the feeling he brought to Yue Shen was completely different.

Not only is his strength bound to be much stronger than his previous opponents, but he also possesses much more intelligence than the Skeleton Knights, who have almost only the instinct to fight.

Those skeleton knights in front of him, if it weren't for Yue Shen's half-foot stepping into the necromancer's door now, he wouldn't have been able to detect the existence of his spiritual wisdom at all.

I saw that the skeleton with a red body took a step, holding a bone knife and bone shield that also emitted flames on the surface in his hand, and walked in the direction of Yue Shen step by step.

And just as he wanted to attack the challenger in front of him, the other party did not make a gesture of preparing for battle, but raised his hand and waved at him.

"I'll come back to you next time." Yue Shen said with a smile.
