Chapter 225: Soul Crystal Appears, Suppressing the Soul-Devouring Insect King
The Soul-Devouring Insect King entered its second form, with its spirit decreasing while its strength and physique doubled, keeping its total attributes at 35.
It transformed into a humanoid monster ten meters tall.
The skeleton mage continued casting spells relentlessly, while the skeleton warriors began frantically climbing onto the Soul-Eating Insect King's body.
Soon, the Soul-Eating Insect King's body was covered with skeleton warriors.
With a sweep of its massive hand, the Soul-Devouring Insect King sent a large group of skeleton warriors flying.
Then, it grabbed a skeleton warrior and threw it into its mouth. A terrible scraping sound and a sound of resistance rang out.
Surprisingly, the Soul-Eating Insect King actually devoured the skeleton warrior.
The Lich General sent a message informing Jiang Chen that his undead army was missing a skeleton warrior.
Jiang Chen was stunned. This monster could actually eat its enemies and recover itself in this way.
This ability is simply too abnormal.
Since that's the case, let's see who can eat faster or who can beat faster!
Jiang Chen remained extremely calm.
The Soul-Eating Insect King stretched out its giant hand again and grabbed a skeleton warrior for the third time.
Although affected by the curse, its speed wasn't fast, but the sheer number of skeleton warriors made it easy for the Soul-Devouring Insect King to grab it. Jiang Chen snorted, and a flash of red light appeared as the damage curse replaced the slowing curse.
At the same time, he unleashed the Soul Burn skill again, and flames ignited.
He had only used Soul Burn once to distract the BOSS, but now he needed to end the fight quickly and reduce the damage.
Jiang Chen reacted quickly, increasing his damage tenfold and amplifying the Soul Burning effect to its maximum.
The Soul-Devouring Insect King immediately let out a horrified scream, writhing in unbearable pain.
I almost threw away the skeleton warrior I was holding.
Soul Burn is quite powerful, and the excruciating pain it causes is several times that of other skills.
The Soul-Devouring Insect King devoured the skeleton warriors, its hands sweeping wildly, constantly knocking the skeleton warriors away.
Its power is immense, and each strike can inflict considerable damage on the skeleton warriors. However, the Lich General's legion's healing abilities are too strong; injuries are healed in an instant.
Furthermore, the Lich General possesses excellent command abilities.
If Jiang Chen doesn't interfere, the skeleton warriors that are injured will retreat to recover, while the uninjured ones will rush forward to attack.
Skeletons are fearless of death, feel no pain, and never tire.
Once the order is given, attacks will be launched continuously until the enemy is annihilated.
With the damage curse amplified tenfold, the damage dealt by skeleton warriors and skeleton mages also increases significantly.
In addition, Jiang Chen continued to use Soul Burn.
The Soul-Eating Insect King's recovery speed could no longer keep up with the rate of damage.
Its most powerful attack skill was completely countered by Jiang Chen, leaving it only with the ability of normal attacks, which no longer posed a significant threat.
It was only a matter of time before it was destroyed. At this moment, its body was covered with skeleton warriors, densely packed together.
It keeps grabbing and devouring skeleton warriors, but the next second, new warriors will appear to fill the empty slots.
The Soul-Eating Insects, which have always relied on numbers to win, are now at a disadvantage in terms of numbers.
The Soul-Devouring Insect King roared in resentment, opened its maw, and released a large number of Soul-Devouring Insects.
"hehe!"
Jiang Chen smiled.
Just as the Soul-Eating Worm flew out, it was met with a concentrated attack from the Skeleton Mage.
A large number of Soul-Eating Insects died.
Skill: Corpse Explosion!
Seizing the opportunity, Jiang Chen immediately used Corpse Explosion.
For a time, the roaring sound continued incessantly.
The exploding corpse instantly inflicted massive damage on the Soul-Eating Insect King.
The Soul-Devouring Insect King reacted extremely quickly, immediately sucking all the remaining corpses back in and daring not to release any more Soul-Devouring Insects.
It realized that doing so would be suicide.
The injuries were rapidly worsening, and the Soul-Devouring Insect King was truly terrified.
If this continues, it will die in a few minutes.
It turned to flee, and the wings hidden under its skin instantly unfurled.
"The wait is now!"
The Lich General executed Jiang Chen's orders perfectly.
The moment the wings appeared, the skeleton warriors behind them simultaneously unleashed their skills.
The mage also focused their attacks on the wings instantly.
A burst of white light flashed on Jiang Chen's fingers.
The skeleton's sharp teeth rained down. Its wings were riddled with holes and snapped off with a thud.
The Soul-Devouring Insect King, which had just taken off, crashed down with a scream.
It fell to the ground, and more skeleton warriors surrounded it, hacking at it with their large swords.
You think you can escape? No way.
Under the relentless onslaught, the second form was dispelled.
It reverted to its insect form.
Thirty-six giant feet swept across, and the barbs on its body blossomed.
The immense impact prevented the skeleton warriors from getting close.
No matter how hard it tried, it couldn't break through the encirclement of the skeleton warriors.
They were even less able to withstand the relentless attacks of the skeleton mage.
No matter how strong its vitality is, it has already reached the end of its road.
It screamed again, its voice piercingly mournful. The hills exploded all at once, with a deafening roar.
The earth shook violently, and countless cracks appeared in the ground, causing the skeleton warriors to fall into them one after another.
The Lich General reacted swiftly, immediately retrieving the fallen skeleton warrior.
A large crack also appeared beneath Jiang Chen's feet. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and dodged it, otherwise he would have fallen in as well.
The skeleton mages were also unable to maintain their attack, and they all staggered and fell.
Jiang Chen's heart stirred, and the Lich General quickly recalled all the skeletons.
Jiang Chen also recalled the Lich General.
"Is this its skill?"
Jiang Chen didn't understand.
The moment the skeleton was retrieved, the earth shattered completely.
The entire ground collapsed, and Jiang Chen fell down with it. During the fall, Jiang Chen landed on a large rock, showing no signs of panic.
In the instant the earth collapsed, he saw a large number of Soul-Eating Insects.
It suddenly dawned on me that the area beneath this hill had long been hollowed out.
The Soul-Eating Insect King simply ordered the Soul-Eating Insects to completely sever the earth.
The roar continued, and the hills were constantly collapsing.
One after another, they spread rapidly.
Ancient battlefields trembled as a result.
People far away also felt the tremor.
A human professional squad was moving away; they had heard the Soul-Eating Insect King's cries and had started running into the distance.
They sensed the massive earthquake.
"What? There was an earthquake?" "Did you hear anything?"
"I think I heard the cry of the Soul-Devouring Insect King. It wasn't an ordinary cry; it sounded like a scream of agony."
"Could someone be trying to defeat the Soul-Eating Insect King? It's been many years since anyone has tried to fight this boss."
"If we can really take it down, the Soul Crystal is a really good thing."
"Not only that, there's also the Soul Devouring Ring. Although it can't compare to BOSS jewelry, it's still considered top-tier platinum-level jewelry."
"The creature is good, but it's too hard to kill!"
As the hill continued to collapse, the tremors became increasingly intense, and the affected area expanded.
Jiang Chen had landed, and before him lay a scene of ruins.
The Soul-Devouring Insect King fell down with him, its massive body crashing heavily to the ground.
It could originally fly, but unfortunately its wings were cut off, and it lost its ability to fly.
A large number of Soul-Eating Insects rushed in from all directions, merging into its body and allowing its injuries to heal.
How could Jiang Chen possibly allow him to focus on healing his injuries?
Skill: Damage Curse!
Skill: Skeleton Fangs!
Two skills were unleashed in quick succession. The Soul-Eating Worm was cursed, and the Skeleton Fangs, glowing with a pale white light, followed in quick succession.
A large number of Soul-Eating Insects were killed.
Then the body exploded!
The Soul-Devouring Insect King was hit by the explosion again, and its injuries, which had just begun to heal, were aggravated once more.
It let out a strange scream and dared not let the Soul-Eating Insects get close to it again.
The more Soul-Eating Worms come, the faster it dies.
It turned and fled with a shriek. "It actually escaped!"
Seeing this, Jiang Chen chased after him without hesitation.
The Soul-Devouring Insect King was too agile, its speed far exceeding Jiang Chen's, and it was about to disappear in the blink of an eye.
Skill: Slow Curse!
A crimson light flashed, and the Soul-Devouring Insect King immediately slowed down.
The slowing curse had a range of up to 6 kilometers, and it was never able to escape it.
Having been cursed with a slowing effect, the Soul-Devouring Insect King was far slower than Jiang Chen.
No matter how hard it tries, it can't run fast.
The closer the two got, the more the Soul-Devouring Insect King screamed.
One cry followed another, each one more heart-wrenching than the last.
This was the first time Jiang Chen had ever seen a BOSS that could run away.
Unfortunately, this time it couldn't escape. The hill had completely collapsed, except for the massive hill that stood a hundred meters high.
That was the lair of the Soul-Devouring Insect King, and it had not been completely dug out.
The Soul-Devouring Insect King was now fleeing towards its lair.
Jiang Chen drew closer and closer.
The terror intensified with each cry of the Soul-Devouring Insect King, growing ever more intense.
The skeleton warriors were released to block the way, but the Soul-Eating Insect King's 36 insect legs swept wildly, knocking the skeleton warriors back.
It kept running regardless.
Jiang Chen sensed something was wrong.
The Soul-Eating Insect Kings all fled in one direction, as if there was something there.
From afar, it spotted the lair of the Soul-Eating Insect King, a hill a hundred meters high.
The Soul-Devouring Insect King fled in that direction. "There must be something there that can save its life."
"There's no way we can let him escape."
Jiang Chen's heart skipped a beat, and a skeleton warrior immediately picked him up and ran forward with him.
They quickly overtook the Soul-Devouring Insect King and blocked its path.
But the Soul-Devouring Insect King ignored everything and charged straight at them.
The skeletal armor gleamed, and Jiang Chen did not retreat an inch, but the Soul-Devouring Insect King was forced back.
It didn't understand why Jiang Chen, such a small guy, could block it.
The Lich General appeared with his undead army.
A massive swarm of skeletons once again surrounded the Soul-Eating Insect King.
The Soul-Eating Insect King let out a desperate cry.
It knew it had no chance of escaping. Its wings had been cut off, and it had lost the ability to fly.
Unable to heal their injuries using Soul-Eating Worms.
The Soul Devouring skill is completely countered.
It was powerless against the undead army.
It jumped up with all its might, trying one last time to escape the encirclement.
But the skeletons also leaped high into the air, and a large number of skeletons slammed it back to the ground.
It completely lost its chance.
What others consider a terrifying skill is nothing to Jiang Chen.
Even a level 50 lord-level boss might not be this easy to defeat.
Two minutes later, the Soul-Devouring Insect King, with its last lingering resentment, collapsed with a deafening scream.
"Slay the Soul-Devouring Insect King, experience +5500000"
"Obtained Soul-Devouring Dagger" "Obtained Soul-Devouring Longsword"
"Obtain the Soul-Devouring Ring"
"Gained Soul Crystals x5"

"Soul Devourer (Passive Skill): Each attack will deal damage to the target's soul. This damage ignores defense, physical immunity, and elemental immunity."
"Obtain the Soul-Devouring Longsword (Knight Class Exclusive): Platinum-grade weapon, all attributes +2500, Knight-type skills amplified by 80%, with the following skill: Absorption."
"Absorption (Passive Skill): Each time you defend, you can absorb a portion of the opponent's attack power to restore your own health."

"Soul Crystal: A single-use item. Each use permanently increases mental strength by 1000 points, with no limit on the number of uses."
This is good stuff!
Jiang Chen's eyes lit up.
