Chapter 9, Level 4 Radiance
Chapter 9, Level 4 Radiance
But then something unbelievable happened.
This powerful and heavy blow was actually blocked by the bone shield!
Lu Zhou remained calm, clearly not surprised by what was happening before him.
The power of the Bone Shield was fully revealed at this moment.
The claws of the Corpse Demon General tore at the shield like blades, but the bone shield remained steadfast.
Lu Zhou moved swiftly, sketching a star map that burst forth with a dazzling green light in front of him. The next moment, a wind arose.
A terrifying gust of wind rose from the ground!
"Wind Disc - Heavenly Net!"
Even the terrifying body of the Corpse Demon couldn't withstand the sudden onslaught of the gale. Its form immediately became unstable, and its body was covered in wounds from the fierce wind.
At this moment, Chen Qing finished sketching and exchanged a glance with Lu Zhou, who immediately understood.
He manipulated the wind disc to lift up the demon corpse general and continuously attack its chest area until a dark blue light burst forth from within.
It's the crystallization of the dead!
The crystallized soul of the Corpse Demon General is located on his chest.
The undead are extremely resilient. Even if their heads are cut off or their hearts are ripped out, they may not necessarily die. Their only life core is the Soul Crystal. Only by destroying the Soul Crystal can the undead be completely killed.
Chen Qing instantly wove the seventh star together to form a star trail.
The demon corpse, swept away by the powerful wind, also fell uncontrollably toward him.
With his extensive combat experience, Chen Qing knew exactly how to seize the opportunity and unleash the most lethal attack at the most opportune moment.
"Radiance - Blindness!"
A radiant light, comparable to a mid-level spell, struck the core of the Corpse Demon General's chest perfectly. The terrifyingly hot light melted the fragile crystal the moment it made contact.
The red light in the eyes of the Corpse Demon suddenly stopped, losing all its luster, after a barely perceptible flicker.
Even a powerful corpse general could not withstand this radiance that completely defied reason.
The Corpse Demon General is dead!
Only at this moment did Chen Qing finally breathe a sigh of relief, but he still didn't relax. In just ten seconds, he threw three more rays of light into the hole that had been carved into its chest.
He nodded in satisfaction: "Now they're all really dead."
Lu Zhou was speechless at the sight. In fact, even he couldn't understand why Chen Qing's magical energy was so abundant that it was enough to support him in such a great battle. However, it was someone else's secret, and he couldn't pry into it.
"Let's go help Wang Wen and the others. If we still have the strength after dealing with these small fry, we'll loot the spoils before retreating!" Lu Zhou's tone was clearly excited.
A powerful undead general, not to mention anything else, could fetch a fortune just from its soul crystals, not to mention the strange bones it might produce...
In short, this trip was absolutely a huge success!
The greatest contributor was undoubtedly Chen Qing. If it weren't for his outrageous radiance, they might have been seriously injured trying to defeat this giant corpse general. The death throes of the Xing Gui corpse general had given Lu Zhou quite a fright, but thankfully it was successfully stopped in the end.
Chen Qing's eyes flickered slightly as he observed the corpse of the Ghost Corpse General. Somewhat regrettably, it had not been able to unleash its essence.
But when he, as usual, guided that wisp of the corpse's remnant soul into the star of light, a sudden change occurred!
The seventh star, which was originally underdeveloped and lagged behind the other six stars in size and fullness, now seems to have undergone a transformation, becoming exactly the same as the other six enhanced stars.
This means that all the star particles within his light-element stardust have been enhanced at this moment.
He felt the changes and fluctuations emanating from the stardust and was overjoyed.
Initial Stage 4 Radiant Radiance, officially achieved!
Radiance Ignites!
The specific effect is to apply an ignite effect to units that attack with Radiant Light, causing continuous corrosive burning.
As the saying goes, perseverance pays off. Chen Qing's many days of secretly absorbing remnant souls have finally paid off.
The power of a fourth-level spell is already comparable to the weakest mid-level spell. With Chen Qing's fourfold amplification, he can now truly be considered a peak early-stage magic master.
Below the mid-level, I am invincible; above the mid-level, I can trade one for one!
Thinking of this, Chen Qing couldn't help but smile.
With the summoner, the Corpse Demon General, gone, the remaining ordinary undead were basically insignificant and were quickly dealt with. However, the land of the undead was not a place to linger.
The six people divided the tasks and quickly and skillfully packed up all the valuables before rushing back to the city.
Only after arriving in the outer city did the group's tense hearts finally relax completely.
Liu Qi wiped away the non-existent cold sweat first: "This really scared me. I didn't expect the corpse general's counterattack to be so swift. Fortunately, the captain's White Bone Spirit Shield was there."
Chen Qing nodded in agreement: "That's right, if it weren't for Brother Lu's timely support, I'm afraid I would have been in serious trouble—I think you should get a larger share of tonight's spoils."
Lu Zhou immediately shook his head: "You get a percentage of the profits based on how much effort you put in. Even if I don't, someone else will take my place. We're a team, so there's no need to worry about these things too much."
Chen Qing wanted to say something more, but Lu Zhou interrupted him:
"Weren't you still thinking of buying a spirit seed? You're still quite a bit short, aren't you? Why are you being so polite with me? You put in the most effort, so it's only right that you get the lion's share. As for the others, including myself, we'll get what we're entitled to. Nobody has any objections, right?"
The others naturally had no objections and nodded in agreement.
"That's right, Xiao Chen. Our captain is a big spender, we might as well take advantage of him."
"Well said, Liu Qi, you won't get a share of the dinner party tonight!" Lu Zhou said.
Liu Qi immediately wailed, "No, boss, I was wrong!"
Chen Qing suppressed a laugh, hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded with difficulty: "Thanks, Brother Lu."
Lu Zhou laughed and patted him on the shoulder: "We're like brothers, don't be so polite!"
After the laughter and chatter subsided, everyone sat down to carefully tally and tally their harvest.
"More than twenty slave-level undead soul crystals, one tail bone, one corpse general undead soul crystal, and tonight's big surprise: a pair of corpse general-level hand claw bones!" Lu Zhou said excitedly.
Everyone crowded around, curiously examining the pair of strange claw bones that came from the body of the executioner ghost corpse general.
Lu Zhou continued, "This extremely rare claw-like bone, especially since it's a twin, is certainly very valuable. It's perfect for making demon-slaying tools. If we find the right person, we might be able to create a top-quality demon-slaying tool. Just the bare bones alone could fetch at least tens of millions of dollars."
At this point, Lu Zhou hesitated for a moment before continuing:
"I have a request, but I don't know if everyone can agree to it..."
