Chapter 66

Perhaps it was because he didn't exceed the mission objective according to the "target" prompt, but just in the 250th-floor Exchange Space, he saw the existence of divine artifacts.

And not just one.

[Supreme Mage Tower], the divine artifact of mages, and also the item mages desire most, none other.

[Night Blade], the divine artifact of assassins, killing invisibly, hiding without a trace.

[Bagua Purple Gold Plate], the divine artifact of the special profession Daoist in the Xuanlong Kingdom, with profound magic arrays, trapping enemies, killing people, destroying heaven, and extinguishing earth!

[Sky-Propping War Shield], the divine artifact of defensive warriors, an invincible shield, indestructible, one man guarding the pass, ten thousand cannot open it!

So many divine artifacts made Luo Chenyu dazzled.

But...

There was only one factor, and that was "being short of money"; even the cheapest hunter profession divine artifact required 5 million Nine-Layer Abyss Points.

And the [Sky-Propping War Shield] that Luo Chenyu couldn't forget required 8 million Nine-Layer Abyss Points.

And he currently only had 1.04 million Nine-Layer Abyss Points.

It was nowhere near enough...

So, he turned his gaze to the items rewarded on the 250th floor.

['Indestructible Shield' Mission Activation Scroll]

Quality: SSS

Type: Special Item

Effect: Use to activate the mission—Indestructible Shield; upon completion, you will obtain the forbidden skill—Indestructible Shield.

Forbidden skill?

Luo Chenyu had never heard of this quality.

Aren't skills from the first to the ninth rank, and then demigod and god levels!

Each rank is divided into three types: special skills, rare skills, and unique skills.

Where did the forbidden quality come from?

He was completely baffled!

Even so, Luo Chenyu didn't dare to activate it easily now.

What if it's a time-limited mission? Wouldn't that be a tragedy?

"Wait until after the third turn; it's coming soon!"

Immediately, he shifted his gaze to the two items dropped by the BOSS.

A pure black mace gleaming with cold light.

A black piece of women's clothing.

[Ba Tian]

Good guy!!

Luo Chenyu was shocked, an SSS weapon, a huge mace!

And it was equipment he could use.

However...

This weapon looked a bit fierce; if combined with his perfect physique, the deterrent power would be maxed out.

"I like it!!"

Unfortunately, what made Luo Chenyu speechless now was that his strength wasn't enough to equip this fierce weapon.

Immediately...

He turned his gaze back to the exchange interface of the Exchange Space.

After hesitating for a moment, he spent 50,000 Nine-Layer Abyss Points to exchange for a Level 40 A-grade set.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained!

Clean and crisp, pushing the attributes straight up.

His strength instantly exceeded 5,000 points, and he equipped [Ba Tian].

His strength reached a terrifying 8,235!

And his strength also reached the fourth rank!

Actually...

Exchanging for an A-grade set, Luo Chenyu still had some concerns, which was that he didn't have many clothes, and if he kept blowing his clothes up like this...

If he lost his equipment, he would have to go completely naked.

After resting.

Luo Chenyu didn't linger and started the challenge for the 251st floor!

The second plot...

But when he saw the scene of the second plot, his brows immediately furrowed.

This mode, so familiar!

"Is there any relationship between the [Nine-Layer Abyss] and the [Eternal Tower]?"

The circular arena before him looked very much like the first trial of the [Eternal Tower], and seeing the objective for the 251st floor.

Abyss Arena!

Luo Chenyu could be certain.

The second plot is the arena mode; although he didn't know the strength of the monsters within, it was certain that he would have a much easier time.

At least he didn't have to run through the entire Abyss Rift like on the first floor.

In the Exchange Space, he rested well, at least he ate something in his spare time.

Standing in the middle of the Abyss Arena now, looking around.

He discovered that outside the large arena, the spectator stands were filled with all kinds of strange faces: orcs, elves, goblins, humans, demon men...

Without exception.

These were all "Abyss" fallen ones.

The countdown started!

30!

29!

Luo Chenyu took out [Ba Tian] unhurriedly, a black mace taller than himself.

Boom!

Holding the mace with one hand, he poked it hard onto the brown stone slab, making a huge roaring sound; the stone slab didn't shatter in the slightest.

"Come on, cheer to your heart's content!"

Along with Luo Chenyu's voice, the entire Abyss Arena erupted in violent cheers.

Of course...

This wasn't in response to Luo Chenyu's call, but because the first monster appeared from the arena's ramp.

It was a bovine monster over ten meters tall and nearly thirty meters long.

Pitch-black scales covered its entire body, three huge sharp horns on its head, black flames circled its massive hooves, and a pair of scarlet eyes stared straight ahead.

It was exactly the gatekeeper mentioned in the objective.

Ghost-Armored Bull Demon!

"Moo!!!"

Seeing the Ghost-Armored Bull Demon lift its arrogant head, the huge sound spread throughout the entire Abyss Arena, causing the cheers to become even more intense.

Luo Chenyu watched the old bull show off quietly.

His gaze, however, was fixed on the numbers in mid-air.

5...

4...

3...

2...

1...

The countdown ended.

Luo Chenyu held the mace, and his body suddenly disappeared from the middle of the arena.

Boom!

Terrifying power impacted the Ghost-Armored Bull Demon.

-876,802!

True damage -16,785!

Blood Rage -1,679!

Watching the Ghost-Armored Bull Demon enter a stunned state, Luo Chenyu couldn't help but frown, thinking to himself that it had high damage reduction.

He possessed 2 layers of [Steel Shield], one of which was as high as 10 million; if it were against an ordinary monster, 1 million damage would definitely be inevitable.

Moreover, after the Ghost-Armored Bull Demon was attacked.

A black shield also appeared on its body, looking very thick.

Luo Chenyu didn't hesitate, picked up the mace, and gave it a blow to the head.

-4.22 million!

True damage -8,235!

Gray shield damage appeared; [Ba Tian] deals five times damage to shields, and now its sharpness was directly reflected.

One blow shattered the shield.

But then again, with [Ba Tian], his attack ability had increased a lot, but his attack speed was slightly slower.

But, it was enough!

Boom!!

Boom!!

A series of mace shadows appeared, and the huge roaring sound spread in all directions.

At this moment, Luo Chenyu suddenly felt a different sensation in his hand, and he smashed it over with one blow.

The Ghost-Armored Bull Demon's massive body was instantly knocked flying dozens of meters.

Small against big.

And knocking a behemoth flying.

Such a scene didn't make the arena spectators speechless; instead, it made their cheers even more intense.

In the Abyss world, the strong are respected.

Especially in the arena.

They just wanted to vent the violent emotions and passion in their hearts.

"Is this the crushing effect? Pretty awesome!"

Luo Chenyu had a thought, but as the Ghost-Armored Bull Demon flew backward, he had already followed closely.

"Moo!!"

The Ghost-Armored Bull Demon, with less than 10% health left, finally woke up from the stun.

It shook its huge head.

Black flames flashed in its scarlet eyes, and the black flames under its hooves began to spread; in an instant, a strange flame magic array appeared.

Small black Ghost-Armored Bull Demons rushed out from the flame array.

Charging toward Luo Chenyu.

Those were small calves made of black flames.

Luo Chenyu went forward without hesitation, jumped high, [Ba Tian] held high above his head, pressing down with the force of a thousand jun, quite like the appearance of splitting heaven and earth.

This move, he borrowed from the warrior skill "Jump Slash".

But it wasn't a skill.

It was just an ordinary basic attack.

It only had such an effect because of his powerful physical fitness.

Dodge the skill?

No, he never thought about dodging.

And he couldn't dodge it.

Watching the small calves leaping up, Luo Chenyu had only one target in his eyes, and that was the Ghost-Armored Bull Demon.

Boom boom boom!

The small calves charged over, not causing any ripples, and didn't even delay Luo Chenyu's speed.

But every collision of the small calves reduced his shield value by fifty or sixty thousand, along with the ever-present burning and corrosion.

"Get lost!!"

The huge mace smashed violently into the Ghost-Armored Bull Demon in the flame array.

Boom!!!

The black shield appeared again, blocking this massive blow.

But it didn't block Luo Chenyu's second blow.

Critical hit -2.167 million!

The black bull demon's body was smashed to the ground, and its health bar disappeared.

The terrifying burst made all the spectators boil with excitement, and the cheers rose and fell like waves.

And at this moment.

Luo Chenyu was slightly stunned; the Ghost-Armored Bull Demon's body didn't disappear.

He thought for a moment and used spatial power to collect the Ghost-Armored Bull Demon's corpse into his spatial backpack.

Immediately.

The prompt that he had completed the objective also appeared before his eyes.

"Ding, you completed the objective of the [Nine-Layer Abyss] 251st floor, gaining Nine-Layer Abyss Points +100,000, reward all attributes +50!"

"Ding, the next target monster will appear in 30 seconds!"

"Hiss!!"

Luo Chenyu gasped, his face full of joy.

One hundred thousand Nine-Layer Abyss Points; if every floor had this reward, wouldn't that mean the second plot would have a minimum yield of 2.5 million Nine-Layer Abyss Points.

Even...

More than that.

The pace toward him exchanging for a divine artifact was getting closer and closer!

What's more.

The reward of fifty points to all attributes, although not much, was definitely not little either.

"Heh... then let's farm it!"

Arena-type scenarios were definitely his favorite.

Just be reckless, no need to worry about other messy things, just keep fighting.

But what made him a bit dissatisfied was that there was no experience provided.
