The skeleton carried Jiang Chen faster and faster, and the abyssal demon, cursed with a slowing effect, couldn't catch up at all.
"He's trying to escape! Chase him!"
"Having killed so many of us, how could we possibly let him escape so easily?"
"Break the curse! We can't fly fast, we're going to lose them."
A demon took out a dark stone and activated it.
With a bang, the stones exploded, and their speed increased instantly.
This stone cannot completely remove the curse, but it can offset part of it. This also allows them to reach a speed comparable to Jiang Chen's.
Each demon is poisoned, suffering damage equivalent to 4000 power per second.
The damage from 4000 points of strength isn't significant, but it happens every second, and over time it becomes quite unpleasant.
"Is this guy human or a BOSS? He can even use poison elemental skills."
"I've fought and killed humans so many times, and this is the first time I've seen humans use curses and poison elemental skills."
"This guy is ruthless, even more so than us demons."
"No, we can't go on like this, or we'll be dragged down to our deaths."
"I know we can't go on like this, but we can't catch up."
One of the demons gritted its teeth and chopped off one of its own fingers. Black blood splattered through the air, then flew back and landed on all the demons.
With a whoosh, a new curse appeared on all the demons.
Defense capabilities have decreased dramatically.
"Death Demon, what are you doing?"
The Abyss Death Demon is a demon with the power of curses.
The Death Demon gritted his teeth and said, "I replaced Jiang Chen's curse with another curse."
Only one curse can exist at a time.
It replaced the Slow Curse with its own curse.
At this moment, no demon blames it.
Their speed picked up again, and they gradually caught up with Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen chuckled and casually tapped his finger.
The crimson glow of the Slow Curse descended once more. However, this time the Slow Curse failed to take effect.
The level of the Abyss Death Demon is too high, and its curse level is also too high; the Slow Curse cannot replace its curse.
"Jiang Chen, you can't escape."
"You are dead."
"You have killed so many of our abyssal demons, the abyss will not let you get away with this."
"The Demon King has given the order: you must die!"
The demons of the abyss drew ever closer.
Jiang Chen's attitude of fleeing made the demons feel that he was afraid.
After all, the demons all fought their way out of the core area, and each of them was level 60 or higher.
There are 38 of them, the lowest level is 61 and the highest level is 64.
This lineup is really making a mountain out of a molehill by chasing down a level 35 human. A tall mountain appears ahead, and there seems to be a cave in front of it.
Jiang Chen's eyes lit up, and he quickly ran into the cave.
In the blink of an eye, they disappeared from the demons' sight.
The demons' attacks landed on the mountain, causing rocks to collapse and the entire mountain to tremble.
The demons exchanged glances. "Go after them!"
Without thinking twice, they rushed into the cave and chased after them.
The cave was winding and rugged, and completely dark.
Demons naturally love darkness, so this environment has no effect on them.
They followed Jiang Chen's scent, relentlessly pursuing him deeper into the cave.
The cave went deeper and deeper, and the passage became wider and wider.
Suddenly, the view opened up. A spacious cave came into view.
Jiang Chen had stopped and was standing at the deepest part of the cave, looking at them.
Behind Jiang Chen was a thick rock wall, with no way to retreat.
"Let's see where you run this time!" the demons sneered.
The cave was filled with murderous intent, and the temperature dropped significantly.
A chilling wind blew in gusts, and the source of the killing intent was not a demon, but Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen, a one-star colonel, has killed a great many demons and dragons.
The killing intent it exuded was even stronger than that of the high-level demons before it.
"What's going on? Something feels off!"
"Yeah, this guy seems to have a strong killing intent."
"Oh no, we've been tricked! Look at his sergeant's badge!"
Only then did they notice that Jiang Chen was wearing a gleaming gold sergeant badge on his shoulder, with a star on it.
One star, colonel!
Those who can become one-star colonels are all battle-hardened individuals.
He must have killed countless demons or dragons.
Such figures are all powerful warriors.
Jiang Chen is only level 35...
Thinking of this, the demons felt a chill run down their spines.
Just then, footsteps sounded behind them, and a large number of skeleton warriors ran out of the cave.
The countless skeletons completely blocked the demons' escape route.
Jiang Chen had previously released two lich generals silently along the way, and these lich generals were hiding in dark corners. Now, the two lich generals, along with their undead legions, had blocked the demons' retreat.
"It wasn't easy to bring you down!" Jiang Chen's heart stirred, and in an instant, the remaining thirteen undead legions all appeared.
Thousands of skeletons nearly filled the cave, surrounding the demons in layers.
The Lich General buffed all the skeletons, and the bright white light illuminated the entire cave as if it were daytime.
One of the demons gritted its teeth and said, "You think these level 35 trash skeletons can stop us?"
Jiang Chen said in a low voice, "Thank you for the military merit you've sent. I'll accept it without hesitation."
As soon as he finished speaking, the skeleton warrior charged forward.
The skeleton mage's skills also erupted suddenly.
The cave was filled with flashes of fire and a red glow. The highest-ranking demon among them was a level 64 demon.
He raised his spear.
Bang, bang, bang—a series of sounds rang out, sending large numbers of skeletons flying.
At level 64, it possesses immense strength and deals significant damage to skeletons.
The skeleton that was originally knocked away should have suffered at least some serious damage.
This time, however, the skeleton that was knocked away only suffered minor injuries.
The damage was shared and absorbed by all the skeletons present.
Furthermore, the Lich General's Legion Healing spell has also changed.
It no longer only affects its own legion, but now affects the entire army.
This is equivalent to all skeletons simultaneously receiving healing from 15 Lich Generals.
In Jiang Chen's eyes, as long as he doesn't encounter another abnormal BOSS like the "Ancient Luan Bird" or the "Ancient Earth Dragon", he'll be fine.
Or it could be a top-tier demon exceeding level 70.
It's very difficult for one's own skeleton to die anymore.
These demons, like trapped beasts, launched a frenzied attack on the skeleton.
They even tried to fly up and break through the mountain to escape.
But all his movements were blocked by the skeleton.
The skeletons gave them no chance.
Not only were they surrounded by layers upon layers, but even their heads were covered in skulls.
It achieves a complete three-dimensional surround effect.
The skeleton warriors slashed at them relentlessly, while the skeleton mages attacked without hesitation, covering them from every angle.
Their fate was sealed the moment they were brought into the cave.
The first scream rang out, followed by a deafening explosion.
A corpse exploded, killing 37 demons.
Only the level 64 demon was still alive, but it was already severely injured.
Jiang Chen was somewhat surprised, not expecting this demon to have such strong vitality.
It can withstand a corpse exploding once and survive.
If Jiang Chen remembered correctly, the object of the corpse explosion was a level 61 Abyss Demon.
Even with damage equal to 12 times the life force of a level 61 Abyss Demon, it still couldn't be killed.
Are the two really that different in terms of vitality, given that they are only 3 levels apart?
The abyss demon holding the gun had a fierce look in its eyes, and its whole body was filled with black light.
The black light emanated from the spear in its hand, a weapon entirely black. Jiang Chen had been attacked by the spear before and knew that this weapon was very powerful.
In addition to its offensive capabilities, it also possesses extremely strong defensive abilities.
The demon, spear in hand, revealed a chilling and maniacal smile. "I never expected you to be so powerful."
"No wonder the Demon King specifically asked to kill you."
"Then let's die together!"
"Remember, the person who killed you was called Black Sky Demon Prince."
As he spoke, the black light suddenly spread out, filling the entire cave.
"Not good!" Jiang Chen's heart tightened, and he instantly put away all the skeletons.
With a deafening roar, the spear and the demon exploded together.
The level 64 Abyss Demon's self-destruction was its strongest attack, gathering all its life force.
Combined with the self-destruction of the spear in his hand, the power was not much less than that of a corpse exploding.
Jiang Chen's skeletal armor shattered instantly, and he was slammed against the rock wall by the immense force.
The cave collapsed, and the entire mountain crumbled in the explosion.
