Start with the hidden role of the Great Emperor of Fengdu, and immediately unleash 100,000 Yin Soldi

"Adjust! Adjust it now!"

Pei Hu's voice was extremely low, but his tone left no room for negotiation.

The staff member trembled as he placed his hand on the data interface at the bottom of the stone tablet, injected spiritual energy, and a semi-transparent data panel popped out from the side of the stone tablet.

On the panel, kill records are refreshing at a visible speed.

[Slayed 30 Berserker Wolves...]

[Slayed 67 Berserker Wolves...]

[Slay 41 Shadow Spiders...]

[Killed...]

The numbers are still jumping.

The staff member's mouth was agape, unable to close.

He worked in surveillance for three years and had never seen a kill record run faster than flipping through a book.

This isn't a dungeon raid, it's just sweeping up fallen leaves.

Pei Hu didn't speak, his gaze fixed on the panel.

At the other end of the square, Zhou Zihao's loud voice was still ringing out.

"I bet you guys, that kid won't even make it past the first wave of wolves! What can an F-rank Soul Guide do? Recite a eulogy for the demon wolves?"

Several followers fawned over him.

Ye Lingshan stood not far away, her back to the dungeon entrance, her expression calm.

Someone nearby leaned over and whispered, "Lingshan, aren't you worried something might happen to him?"

"It has nothing to do with me anymore."

Her tone was flat, as if she were talking to a stranger.

......

Inside the instance.

Chu Jiang had no time to care about the commotion outside.

The Black Impermanence's soul-snatching chains swept out, uprooting the souls of the last dozen or so Shadow Spiders hiding in a dense forest.

The White Impermanence's mourning staff landed precisely, each strike striking the elite monster's skull, causing its soul to leave its body—a clean and decisive blow.

The number of ghost soldiers on the panel jumped up like crazy.

200.

500.

800.

The entire eastern part of the Dark Forest has been cleared out, and the ground is covered with the soulless corpses of monsters, like a harvested wheat field.

Bai Wuchang flicked the soul residue stuck to his mourning staff and clicked his tongue: "The goods in this forest are too low-quality. There isn't even a single gold-quality soul. They're all blank."

Black Impermanence didn't reply, and the chains retracted, hanging down at his side.

Chu Jiang glanced at the countdown in the upper right corner of the panel.

00:00:30.

Thirty seconds.

"It's almost time." Chu Jiang straightened up.

The moment the countdown reached zero, both Black and White Impermanence stopped moving.

Bai Wuchang winked at Chu Jiang: "Boss, once the Senluo Palace is opened, we can stay here permanently. I look forward to seeing you again."

Two figures transformed into beams of dark blue light, shrank into the Chu Jiang panel, and disappeared.

The Hall of the Demon King?

As Chu Jiang was pondering, the ground beneath his feet began to tremble violently.

In the depths of the distant forest, towering ancient trees were snapped in half, with wood chips and leaves scattering like bomb fragments.

The heavy footsteps echoed one after another, each step causing the ground to tremble.

The thick fog was forcefully pushed open, creating a passage.

A colossal creature, five meters tall, stepped out.

Its entire body is covered with thick rocky armor, each plate the size of a millstone, with dark red, magma-like light seeping from the gaps.

Its scarlet eyes locked onto Chu Jiang, its gaping maw opened wide, and it let out a roar that could make one's insides tremble.

The dungeon notification sounded on time:

[WARNING! Abyss Lord - Rock Armored Demon Bear has appeared! Silver-tier BOSS, Level 20! Recommended challenge setup: 10-player team of C-rank or higher.]

Chu Jiang looked down at himself—Lv.7.

With a thirteen-level difference, you still recommend a team of ten C-rank or higher professionals to fight?

Without changing his expression, he walked to a large, moss-covered rock and sat down.

On the open ground in front of them, countless ghostly blue soldiers lay prostrate and kneeling, stretching as far as the eye could see.

One thousand and thirty-six.

Chu Jiang raised his right hand, his fingertip pointing at the Rock Armor Demon Bear.

"superior."

One word.

One thousand and thirty-six ghost soldiers rose at the same time, transforming into a vast, dark blue torrent that blotted out the sky, and rushed forward with a shrill cry.

The Rock Armored Demon Bear was enraged.

Its five-meter-tall body suddenly stood up, and its huge paw, wrapped in a violent shockwave, slammed down.

boom!

The ground cracked open, soil flew everywhere, and the shockwave uprooted trees within a ten-meter radius.

This palm strike is enough to turn a C-rank Awakened into a meat patty.

But the bear paw pierced through the ghost soldier's body.

There were no obstacles, no collisions.

Yin soldiers are spiritual beings and possess physical immunity.

The demonic bear's attack missed, while the ghostly soldier's azure longsword, formed from soul energy, had already pierced its flesh.

It's not about cutting the physical body; it's about tearing the soul apart.

The Rock Armored Demon Bear let out its first scream.

Hundreds and thousands of ghostly soldiers, like ants gnawing at bones, densely climbed up the five-meter-high body.

The rocky shell could not withstand the soul attacks; each strike sliced ​​away a piece of the demon bear's soul.

The demonic bear rolled wildly, its massive body crashing down a grove of trees.

It slapped, tore, and bit, but each attack pierced through the ghostly soldiers' ethereal bodies, resulting in a fruitless struggle.

The ghost soldiers' blades never stopped slashing.

Chu Jiang sat on the boulder, watching this one-sided massacre.

three minutes.

With a muffled thud, the massive body of the Rock Armored Demon Bear suddenly stiffened, then collapsed with a crash, causing a major earthquake.

A fist-sized, silver-glowing soul was forcibly pulled out from between its eyebrows by the ghostly soldiers.

The panel flashed with a purple-gold light:

[Soul Harvest Successful! Obtained 1 Soul of Abyss Lord Rock Armored Demon Bear! Silver Quality!]

[A silver-grade soul has been detected. Ghost General refinement is possible! Refine?]

Chu Jiang confirmed.

The silver soul twisted and expanded violently, and the scattered rock fragments on the ground were enveloped by the ghostly blue flames, rapidly gathering and reshaping themselves.

A few seconds later, a burly ghost general, three meters tall and covered in dark rock armor, materialized and knelt on one knee in front of Chu Jiang.

[Obtained Tier 1 Ghost General - Bear Soul!]

【Ghost General - Bear Soul】

[Rank: Silver]

[Level: 1]

[Attributes: Strength 20, Constitution 25, Agility 15, Spirit 15]

[Skill: Rocky Iron Wall - Provides a soul shield for yourself and surrounding ghost soldiers!]

Looking at the attributes of this ghost general, Chu Jiang nodded in satisfaction.

As expected of a Silver-rank Ghost General, its initial attributes are almost twice that of a newly promoted professional.

Their skills are also quite good.

The ghost soldiers are effective, although they are immune to physical damage, their magic resistance is zero, making them too fragile.

With the Bear Soul's shield, the biggest weakness has been made up.

The next second, a golden notification popped up indicating that the level was cleared:

[Congratulations! You have cleared the Abyss-level Dark Forest solo stage!]

[Time taken: 32 minutes and 17 seconds!]

[Breaking the all-time fastest record for the Jiangcheng dungeon!]

[First-clear reward: Skill book "Bone-Corroding Wind", Silver-grade equipment, and Netherworld Cloak.]

Two streams of light fell into his hand from the void.

A skill book shrouded in black mist—"The Bone-Eating Yin Wind," and a silver-quality cloak—"The Netherworld Cloak."

Chu Jiang shook out the cloak and put it on. The dark fabric clung to his body, instantly completely concealing his aura, and even the information on the panel became blurry.

nice one.

.......

Awakening Square at Jiangcheng No.1 Middle School.

"Where's Chu Jiang? Why haven't we heard anything from him yet?"

"I reckon he's dead by now, and his body has probably been devoured by the wolves."

"Don't wait, it's a waste of time. It takes an hour to check the situation inside the dungeon. Let's go into the dungeon and level up sooner."

Hearing the surrounding chatter, Zhou Zihao's lips curled up.

"Tsk tsk, so what if you're first in theory? When it comes to real combat—"

He hadn't finished speaking.

A piercing alarm suddenly blared.

The entire square was jolted awake by the sharp buzzing sound.

All eyes turned to the three-meter-high monitoring stone tablet in the center of the square.

On the stone tablet corresponding to Chu Jiang, the blood-red light spot that originally symbolized extreme danger suddenly exploded at this moment.

gold.

A dazzling golden light burst forth from the surface of the stone tablet, shooting straight into the sky like a beam of light, illuminating the entire square.

Everyone's face was gilded.

At the very top of the stone tablet, the progress bar for "Dark Forest - Abyss Level" clearly went from 0%... directly to 100%.

At the end of the progress bar, a name flashed repeatedly in golden light.

【Chujiang. 】

[Dungeon Difficulty: Abyss]

[Mode: Single Player]

[Passed successfully!]

Time taken: 32 minutes and 17 seconds.
