Star Abyss Walker

Chapter 370 The Second Golden Conqueror (4th update)
The next morning, a light drizzle began.

After breakfast, I hugged Lin Qingying and rushed to her car. After helping her into the car, I said, "I have a mission to go out today and I may not be able to make it back tonight. You have to eat well."

"Ok!"

She nodded heavily.

I glanced at Xiao Ai, who was driving, and said, "You're in charge of keeping an eye on her."

Xiao Ai said expressionlessly, "Agreement One."

Well, so you think you're all grown up now? A married daughter is like water spilled from a bowl, isn't she?

He watched the white Bentley drive away with a disgruntled expression, then got into the driver's seat of the S680, started the engine, and headed straight for the player's black market.

……

In the morning, the player black market was bustling with people, mostly players heading to various wilderness areas to level up.

Since the release of version 4.0, the level cap has been raised to 80, and players' enthusiasm for leveling up has soared to unprecedented levels. The black market was already quite lively early in the morning.

I had already taken care of all my supplies when I came back last time, so I went to the phase teleportation array and said to the teleportation array administrator, "Go to the Land of Resurrection, thank you."

Immediately, a group of players around looked on with envy.

The Land of Resurrection is a very "niche" map. It is niche because there are only two players in the entire Huaining City who meet the requirements to enter this map, and one of them does not go. So I am the only one in the city who needs to teleport to this coordinate.

After paying a teleportation fee of 5000, step into the teleportation array.

"brush!"

With a sway, the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped by at least twenty degrees, and they found themselves in a map quite similar to the Lost Lands. Opening the large map, they discovered that this map actually bordered the Lost Lands. The entire map was blood red, exuding an aura that kept living beings away.

He raised his hand and drew his power sword. With a flick of his wrist, the power sword was activated, and his Yuan energy surged, condensing into armor around him. In the blink of an eye, he entered battle mode.

"Brother, be careful!"

A player guarding the teleportation array called out from afar, "The Land of Resurrection is dangerous; don't die inside."

"Thank you!"

Without looking back, I walked forward and arrived in front of the golden sky. I reached out and touched the sky, and a ripple appeared on it. My palm easily slipped inside.

[System notification: Your current combat power level is 128552, meeting the requirements to enter the map!]

Take a step forward to enter the map.

The moment they stepped into the Land of Resurrection, it felt as if they had entered two completely different worlds. A large canyon appeared in front of them, with sharp shrieks echoing from within. It was as if the cries of monkeys on both banks were incessant, as if a hundred million Tarzans lived in this valley.

The canyon divides the terrain of the Land of Resurrection in two. One must cross this canyon to truly enter the Land of Resurrection. Moreover, the canyon is long and the possibility of detouring is extremely low.

There was no other way but to force my way through!
Take a deep breath, slide down the hillside, and head straight for the depths of the canyon.

The mountain was rugged and covered with all sorts of unknown wildflowers, but I was preoccupied with leveling up and had no interest in picking flowers. So I picked up my sword and slid down, falling straight into the canyon.

About twenty minutes later, the noise around me became clearer and clearer.

Looking into the distance, there seemed to be a dense mass of seaweed swaying at the bottom of the canyon. I was puzzled. Could someone be doing aquaculture here? That couldn't be, could it?

Two minutes later, upon closer inspection, I was immediately horrified!

There were no seaweeds at all, but rather a group of spiny snakes with their heads raised and necks outstretched. They swayed with the wind in the canyon, rising and falling with it as if following some kind of natural rule.

Just one glance triggered my trypophobia and my phobia of snakes and other cold-blooded animals at the same time!

"hiss~~"

The swarm of hydralisks began to move. Their sensory range was incredibly wide, far surpassing that of the hydralisks in the insect nest. They sensed my presence from almost a hundred meters away, and thus swarmed towards me.

Furthermore, these hydralisks living deep in the canyon seemed to have some kind of ability to exchange pheromones. When one group moved, the whole group moved together, and in the blink of an eye, all the hydralisks in the canyon swam toward me.

We have to cut through the mess quickly and force our way through, otherwise the hydras will only increase in number and eventually exhaust me to death here.

……

With a swing of his longsword, he activated a series of buffs and skills, including War Cry and Chaos Blade, before unleashing a burst of energy and charging into the swarm of serpents. He then charged toward the opposite bank while slashing wildly with his sword.

The Hydralisks, blue bosses with less than 10 health, aren't that strong; it's just that there are too many of them. They swarm in like a dark mass, sending chills down your spine.

Take advantage of the peak Hydralisk swarm and unleash a Furnace Vortex + Power Sword Storm combo to wipe them out!
White light burst forth, and countless rays of experience surged in from all directions. It felt amazing! Moreover, blue treasure chests were falling into my storage space with a clatter. It felt like harvesting dates in autumn, a truly satisfying experience!
Unfortunately, after rushing forward for a short distance, we reached the turbulent river deep in the canyon.

Hydralisks can swim and attack on the surface, but I can't. I don't have skills like Iron Palm Water Skimming. I only took a few steps forward before feeling river water gurgling into my mouth, and quickly switched to underwater combat mode. "Hiss~~"

Under the gleaming light of the power sword and equipment, hydras rushed into the river, their ferocious expressions surging from all directions, tearing and biting relentlessly.

It's fortunate that I was the one facing such a nightmare scene; if it were delicate young ladies like Lin Qingying, Lu Xiaobei, or Cheng Shuang, they would probably have fainted from fright.

No doubt about it, let's go for it, let's crush them!

……

The saying "living in peace with the world" is true. Grinding monsters on the outskirts of the Land of Resurrection is actually a good choice. Although Hydralisks give little experience, they are at least level 70 blue monsters. If you can't beat them with a single one, you can win with numbers.

If there are enough bullets, a high-level gunner can use explosives to focus on farming Hydralisks here, and since the Hydralisks keep coming in endlessly and automatically, the leveling efficiency is probably no worse than entering the Land of Resurrection, and may even be a little better.

Unfortunately, Cai Cai and Fatty's combat power level is still quite far from 9. There's nothing we can do but take it one step at a time.

Actually, Koumi and Aki are also suitable for this place. Koumi has a Chaos Beast mount with boundless magic power, and the Star Speaker's AOE skills will be very effective here. Aki's Fearless Warrior can activate the super greatsword mode, and the effect of randomly slashing here will definitely be good.

Moreover, the Hydralisk's attacks are very weak, only good enough to tickle a Dreadnought, and definitely won't break through its defenses.

Ten minutes later, after crossing the canyon, a bio-optical cloak left the swarm of hydralisks behind and sprinted forward, finally reaching the flat land on the other side of the Grand Canyon more than twenty minutes later.

I drew my sword and moved forward; the wilderness was utterly silent.

This place is barren, which is completely at odds with the name on the map.

A cold wind blew, cutting like a knife to the face, while the Yuanli Furnace accelerated its operation, rapidly providing energy to the body.

Not long after, a low growl came from ahead, followed by a large red dot appearing on the minimap.

The boss is here!
Amidst the deafening roar, a towering figure appeared on the horizon of the desolate wasteland ahead. Its lower body consisted of a rusty chassis and massive wheels filled with steel thorns, while its upper body resembled that of a power armored warrior, complete with an exaggeratedly shaped bull-horned helmet and thick steel arms gripping a giant meteor hammer and a battle axe respectively.

Subspace creatures, Chaos Beasts!
But it wasn't an ordinary Chaos Beast. This one was a bit bigger, and the eyes of the undead in the cockpit emitted a blood-red light, somewhat similar to the undead in World of Warcraft, looking like it had died with its eyes wide open.

A few seconds later, its properties appeared.

Chaos Beast Leader, Level 75, Gold Boss!

"All who live must die!"

The Chaos Beast Commander roared, its body spinning rapidly, and without a word, it hurled its meteor hammer at the beast!
"brush--"

The meteor hammer flew through the air, while the iron chain trailing behind it stretched wildly through the hollow arm of the Chaos Beast Commander!

"A mere little gold coin dares to be so arrogant!"

I chuckled, then suddenly lowered my body, using the Barrier of Glory to block in front of me. With a loud "bang," the meteor hammer veered off course and slammed into the ground, while I stumbled back several steps, shield and all.

"die!"

This Chaos Beast was indeed too arrogant. Its wheels spun rapidly, and it ran faster than Kou Mei's Chaos Beast mount. Its battle axe cut through the air and came straight for vital points. It roared with a ferocious expression, "What a monster!"

That's really annoying. I haven't even made a move yet, and you're already mocking me?
So, when the opponent's battle axe was less than 10 centimeters away from his nose, he directly used a step-slash to switch to the opponent's side and rear, and unleashed a full combo of War Cry + Chaos Blade + Heavenly Craftsmanship + Unstoppable Force, instantly sending the opponent's body flying with a Rising Dragon Slash!
The Chaos Beast roared, and as its body was in mid-air, it was hit by a combo attack and an Ash Sweep, instantly increasing its attack power. Then, it flicked its left hand and threw out a Chaos Flying Knife!

"Sizzle!"

Golden currents surged, directly short-circuiting the Chaos Beast's power system.

Come again!

After raising his longsword and unleashing a shockwave, he quickly activated the Furnace Vortex and Power Sword Storm, then launched a series of slashes in the brilliance of the Power Sword Storm. In an instant, the sword light was so intense that parts began to fall off the Chaos Beast. The meteor hammer and battle axe were cut in the blink of an eye, and the power armor was also quickly cut apart, making it completely vulnerable!
Of course, this also proves one point.

As my equipment gets closer and closer to being fully gold-tier, fighting gold-tier bosses becomes much easier. This applies to the Chaos Beast Leader, as well as the Lurker and the Wyvern.

In less than two minutes, the Chaos Beast leader let out a miserable howl, and its body began to collapse, with its wheels flying off and rolling a long way across the wilderness.

"Clap!"

A golden treasure chest fell into the storage space; open it immediately!

Congratulations! You have successfully opened your [BOSS Ability Crystal] and obtained the item: [Conqueror-V Improved Type] (Quality: Cataclysmic Grade, S8, Gold)!

……

Not again... another round?
