Chapter 86

All along, Su Ming hadn't really leveled up much, but had prioritized getting equipment.

Now that he had been fighting in the D-grade dungeon for a long time, he could clearly feel the drawbacks of low level.

A low-tier player challenging a high-tier monster isn't as simple as just having their attributes suppressed.

You will feel a pure and real sense of [Pressure].

This is the power brought by the world rules, suppressing all class-changers who dare to challenge across ranks.

This will make it hard for you to breathe.

Even if your skill grade is high and you can fight across ranks, after a long time, your body and spirit won't be able to support it.

So Su Ming needed to raise his level to a degree suitable for this dungeon as soon as possible!

Only then could he continue to fight.

There was still a long way to go to the general area where the Epic-grade prop was located.

There was a dark blue ice cave there, which was a different color from the surrounding ice.

It was said... that it was underwater?

This couldn't help but remind Su Ming of the ancient underwater city in mythology, Atlantis.

It would take about a week or so to get there.

Su Ming didn't have very clear information about the specific details of that Epic-grade prop; after all, he had only heard of it occasionally in his past life.

But he only needed to reach the general area.

After all... an Epic-grade prop, one could imagine, would definitely have celestial phenomena the moment it appeared.

As long as the distance wasn't very far, he should be able to feel it.

Su Ming needed to ensure that his level was sufficient to meet the upcoming challenges.

At the very least, he had to be able to survive and take away that supreme treasure!

This was also his fundamental purpose for entering this dungeon.

His gaze was solemn as he looked at the three elite skeletons rushing toward the cave.

They all had green eyes, in which flickered firelight like ghosts.

Their withered hair was like straw.

Their bodies were covered in rotten flesh like dry ash, and tattered battle robes like decaying fibers.

Their weapons were also all rusted.

One could imagine how long they had been frozen.

Each skeleton held a heavy, huge weapon in its hand!

Standing in the center, the most burly skeleton monster was over three meters tall, and its thighs were as thick as buckets.

It walked on the ice, and could step pits into the ice.

Along the way, it left many pits.

It held a giant chain hammer in its hand, which could easily smash a whole person into meat paste.

Its whole body was covered in layers of heavy steel battle armor.

Its burly stature, the luxury of its equipment, and its attributes were the highest among the three skeleton monsters.

Its Strength attribute reached a full 650 points!

It could be called terrifying.

Su Ming didn't doubt for a second that this burly skeleton monster could easily single-handedly kill the Second-Rank giant python he had encountered before.

Its chain hammer only needed one strike to smash that Second-Rank giant python through and through.

It would be one thing if only this skeleton monster were terrifying.

The problem was, the other two skeleton monsters beside it were not to be underestimated either!

They were all elite monsters!

The two skeletons on the left and right each held an ancient war hammer.

Their height was also over two meters; they were tall and sturdy, and they also looked like giants.

These three skeleton monsters were all Third Rank.

Elite monsters generally appear alone.

Elite monsters appearing in groups were truly rare.

Fortunately, Su Ming’s stamina had recovered to its peak, otherwise he would have had to run.

The two war-hammer skeletons on the left and right suddenly took the lead.

They leaped up, cracking the ice, and sprinted along the ground.

The huge hammer heads were swung over.

Su Ming didn't change his expression and scanned their information in this instant.

[Left, Right Guardian War-Hammer Undead (Elite Monster)]

[Bloodline: Undead]

[Level: 33]

[Strength: 424]

[Constitution: 302]

[Agility: 108]

[Spirit: 10]

[Luck: 8]

[Talent: Undying Body (After they die, their bones will gradually re-condense and return to life, unless they are severely damaged again during the resurrection process)]

[Skills: Twin War-Generals (These two war-hammer skeleton monsters are twins; they can communicate telepathically and have perfect coordination on the battlefield!)]

[Corpse-Poison Hammer Wave (The wounds caused by their war hammers will immediately rot, causing corpse poison to attack the heart)]

[Berserk Hammer Technique (After they are injured, their attack power will skyrocket!)]

[...]

Su Ming’s expression was solemn, and he immediately braced himself with twelve points of focus.

These two skeletons were weaker than the burly skeleton in the center.

But they were still very strong.

He drew the Long Xiang Broken Sword directly.

Afterward, he raised his left hand, and the Shadow-Flow Long Sword was also held in his hand.

Clang!

The Xuan Feng Sword behind him left its sheath and slashed out diagonally.

The Mental Spirit Sword also fully condensed.

Su Ming controlled four swords simultaneously to deal with these two skeletons!

Two swords for each monster!

He had already given them great respect.

Swish, swish, swish, swish!!

The sword blades spinning in mid-air were like annoying wingmen, frantically hacking at the bodies of the two hammer skeletons, constantly reducing their HP.

Although their Strength attributes were high and their hammers were large, their movements weren't fast!

In the time it took them to swing one hammer, Su Ming could have slashed several times!

He hooked his fingers, and the spinning sword blades hacked frantically.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, the Mental Spirit Sword spun and pierced at an incredible angle, catching the skeleton on the left off guard.

It directly penetrated its left eye socket.

And completely exploded that eyeball.

The two war-hammer skeletons let out a shrill and angry roar simultaneously.

Because of telepathy, all feelings of pain were also shared.

[Mental Spirit Sword Proficiency +1242]

[Promoted to Gold-mid-grade!]

[Idea-Condensed Blade (Gold-mid-grade)]

[Condense ideas into blades, sharp and enemy-slaying!]

The appearance of the sword blade changed, as if it were burning with a layer of pale white idea-fire, looking even more powerful.

When controlling it to fly with his mind, it would also leave a trail of idea-remnants in mid-air, which was very cool.

The two skeletons were furious and increased the force of their hammers.

Their movements became much faster!

Bang, bang!!

The two huge hammers pressed down toward Su Ming’s body.

The violent wind pressure made Su Ming’s hair flutter!

These two big hammers, plus inertia, weighed at least a thousand pounds, or even ten thousand pounds!

Even if Su Ming had 80 points of Constitution attribute, he couldn't possibly take them head-on!

Otherwise, there would definitely be no bone fragments left.
