Shi Ri stood at the very front of the line.

His bear paws were coated with a golden light, a result of his specially activated "Claw of Exorcism," which provides extra damage against undead creatures. He smashed the surging skeletons with each slap, his movements as fast as a high-speed pile driver.

The sounds of slapping continued.

His body was covered in ashes and dark purple slime, and his bear fur was matted into strips, making him look somewhat disheveled, but his imposing presence remained undiminished.

Liu Nian noticed that every time the Devourer of the Sun lunged forward a certain distance, the speed at which the undead spewed out increased. Those skeletal soldiers gushed out of the cave like springs of bone, one after another, forcefully pushing him back with their bodies. The Devourer of the Sun advanced more than ten meters, then retreated more than ten meters, then advanced more than ten meters, then retreated more than ten meters, as if it were struggling against a spring wall.

Furthermore, the experience points gained from killing these undead are extremely low—almost negligible. This is highly unusual, suggesting that these undead are likely some kind of mass summoned creatures, not actual monsters, but rather products of a skill.

The Sun Devourer surged forward again.

This time he charged even further than before, the golden light on his bear paws almost solidifying. But the sea of ​​the undead reacted even faster, a group of high-level undead monsters clad in black armor surging out from the depths of the cave, forcefully pushing him back.

Devourer of the Sun had to retreat and rest for a while, panting heavily, his bear paws supporting his knees, as ashes fell softly from his fur.

Then he discovered that Liu Nian had arrived.

"Liu Nian!" The bear that devoured the sun had a "you've finally arrived" expression on its face, and its voice was so loud it sounded like it was pleading for help, "You've finally come! These damned things, we can't kill them all, we just can't kill them all!"

"Have your people retreat a bit." Liu Nian flicked his wrist, the scales on the Starbreaker gauntlets making a crisp metallic sound. "Leave it to me."

Devourer of the Sun's eyes lit up. He immediately turned around and roared at the warriors of the Demon Bear Clan, "Retreat!"

Under the command of Devourer of the Sun, the players of the Demon Bear Clan slowly retreated. In a short while, they moved from in front of the cave to in front of Liu Nian, creating a gap of more than ten meters.

Liu Nian took a deep breath and flexed his fingers.

The dark gold scales on the Starbreaker's gauntlets began to open and close slightly, as if they had caught the scent of prey. A cold, eerie blue light seeped from the edges of the claw blades, tracing faint arcs in the darkness.

He suddenly unleashed Twin Casting + Unstoppable Force!

Boom! ! !

The earth is shaking and the mountains are shaking.

Liu Nian crashed headfirst into the Sea of ​​the Dead!

Like a cannonball exploding in a pile of skulls, the shockwave spread outwards from him, sending countless undead flying like a shower of flowers—ribs, skulls, arm bones, leg bones, exploding in mid-air like a giant firework made of bones.

Then another one!

Boom! ! !

The second shockwave followed immediately, sending the skeletons that had just landed and hadn't even settled back into their positions flying again.

With two consecutive strokes, a huge blank area was plowed out.

He didn't stop at all.

The earth roared!

Star core tremor!

A deliberate, deliberate punch!

Dragon seals over ten thousand realms!

Titan's Grip!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

One powerful move after another, Liu Nian single-handedly repelled the Sea of ​​the Dead!

The players from the Sun-Eating and Demon Bear tribes were dumbfounded.

Is the guild leader really that powerful? That's incredible! He single-handedly confronted the Sea of ​​the Dead!

Liu Nian has now activated the Wrath of the Ember Core!

Flames surged from his gauntlets, spreading along his arms and across his entire body. He transformed into a humanoid ball of flame, dark golden flames leaping on his shoulders and crimson tongues trailing a long tail behind him.

He ventured alone into the depths of the cave!

Wherever they went, the undead soldiers turned to ashes.

Those cheap skeleton soldiers didn't even need him to throw a punch—the scorching heat of the fire field alone was enough to vaporize them. The skeletal soldiers struggled, twisted, and shattered in the flames, then turned into a puddle of grayish-white powder, covering the cave floor.

Only those banshees immune to magic required Liu Nian to deal with them personally.

Because those translucent, floating ghostly creatures are immune to magical damage.

Liu Nian's Starbreaker Gauntlets come with the ability to deal 200% extra Judgment damage to energy bodies and soul bodies, but in reality, he doesn't need them at all. He takes them down one by one with clean and efficient punches. The banshee's screams echoed in the cave before turning into green smoke and dissipating.

All the undead creatures were utterly powerless against them!

Although these undead creatures don't give much experience, and the summoned creatures themselves don't drop any souls, there are just too many of them!

Little Tuantuan frantically collected experience points...

Liu Nian rushed into the cave, hundreds of meters deep, stepping on broken bones and ashes, passing through archways made of bones and rocks, and over dark gray deposits eroded by necromantic energy.

Finally, he plunged headlong into an underground city!

An underground city constructed from various bones, metals, and rocks.

Buildings "generated" from bones continue to "grow" here. Bone spurs emerge from the ground, rising like bamboo shoots, intertwining, biting, and fusing together, growing into walls and domes at a visible speed. The surfaces of those bones have fine veins, like the veins of a plant leaf, or blood vessels, with a dark green liquid flowing inside.

Some buildings resemble barracks, some warehouses, and some altars.

Between various buildings, countless undead soldiers are lined up.

They were no longer the scattered, cheap skeleton soldiers. These mummified soldiers wore uniform black armor—breastplates, shoulder armor, arm armor, and leg armor, all complete, with blood-red runes flowing across each plate. They wielded standardized weapons—scimitars, spears, and battle axes—orderly and uniform, like a well-trained army.

They were arranged in neat square formations, twenty people in a row, ten rows in a column, with standard distances between the formations. Liu Nian estimated that there were more than a dozen formations just in front of him.

Behind the formation, several massive undead vehicles were moving slowly.

Some resemble catapults, with bases made of bones and a massive thigh bone as the throwing arm, their magazines filled with stone projectiles burning with eerie green flames; others are like battering rams, their hammerheads formed entirely of a grotesque giant dragon's skull, their shafts a single vertebra, and their bottoms fitted with bone wheels, making them quite impressive; still others are like mobile fortresses, enormous spheres made of countless stacked skulls, with dense, grinding sounds emanating from within, as if countless skulls were crawling inside.

In several open spaces within this underground city, enormous magic arrays are slowly rotating.

The patterns of those magic arrays looked familiar to Liu Nian.

He recalled for a moment, and then remembered—it was this kind of magic circle he encountered when fighting the lich Kel'Gardros in the floating shovel. It was the undead's "Summoning Gate," which could continuously summon various undead soldiers from the undead plane.
