Chapter 144: Are These Two Crazy? The Elemental Realm

~7 min read 1,331 words

After Bone Armor reacts, the two quickly look toward the direction of the attack.

In the howling gale, Jiang Chen's Skeleton Armor flickers with light, blocking all attacks.

The master is attacked, the Skeleton Warrior immediately reacts, charging toward the enemy like lightning.

A Wind Elemental Spirit flies in the air, emitting a pale blue glow, continuously attacking Jiang Chen and Lin Caier.

The Skeleton Warrior leaps swiftly, and the Wind Elemental Spirit instantly evades the attack.

"Does this monster have intelligence?"

Jiang Chen instantly makes a judgment.

"No, it doesn't seem intelligent; it looks more like it's avoiding by instinct!"

He quickly summons ten Skeleton Mages and simultaneously casts a Control spell.

He casually probes the monster's attributes.

"Wind Elemental Spirit"

"Level: 34"

"Strength: 4000"

"Agility: 4000"

"Spirit: 7000"

"Constitution: 5500"

"Skills: Wind Ball, Storm"

"Trait: Wind Element Immunity"

A new trait appears in the Detection Technique, something never seen before.

This trait means the Wind Elemental Spirit doesn't need to use skills, as it is innately immune to wind elements.

Unlike the battlefield's specters, which must cast skills to gain physical immunity, the Wind Elemental Spirit possesses that ability instinctively.

The Wind Elemental Spirit soars in the sky, the Skeleton Warrior jumps to attack, but cannot reach it.

Jiang Chen quickly understands the situation and promptly summons Skeleton Mages.

Wind element attacks are ineffective against the Skeleton Warrior, but have no effect on other elemental spells.

Although the Wind Elemental Spirit can dodge the Skeleton Warrior's attacks, it cannot

avoid the locked-type Skeleton Mage's spell.

After a brief round of spell attacks, the level‑34 Wind Elemental Spirit is blasted to death.

"Defeated level‑34 Wind Elemental Spirit, gained Experience Value +698534"

Jiang Chen looks at the prompt and can't help but frown.

The Wind Elemental Spirit died without leaving a corpse.

The Fire Elemental Spirit that was just killed also seems to have left no corpse.

"Could it be that elemental life has no corpse?"

"If that's the case, Corpse Explosion cannot be used on them."

Being unable to use Corpse Explosion removes the advantage of mass killing.

Just like the Hell Outpost Instance, you can only push through it evenly.

Jiang Chen decides to look again, to see whether it truly matches his guess.

Lin Caier giggles, "Finally feeling comfortable. How about it, do I look pretty with the mask on?"

Lin Caier puts on the Elemental Mask, making her already large eyes appear even bigger and brighter.

The sudden ambush by the Wind Elemental Spirit earlier didn't scare her at all.

Jiang Chen smiles, "Very pretty, your eyes are big and beautiful."

Lin Caier proudly says, "Of course, my lady's eyes are the most beautiful."

The deeper they go into the Elemental Plain, the more densely the elemental monsters appear.

However, many people also hunt elemental monsters here.

They often form teams of two or three, specializing in hunting elemental creatures.

Elemental creatures aren't very strong, and they have a chance to drop Elemental Crystal Cores; in aggregate they are worth a fair amount.

The key is that there's little danger.

Jiang Chen releases five more Skeleton Warriors.

Ten Skeleton Warriors and ten Skeleton Mages are enough to roam the Elemental Plain.

Elemental monsters indeed have no corpses.

Corpse Explosion Skill cannot be

... used.

"I've read material in the university Library, which contains a description of the Elemental Plain."

"After being bathed in thousands of Forbidden Curses, the Elemental Plain became a land of pure elements, unreachable by Abyssal power."

"Yet the Abyss Demon refuses to give up, having persisted for so many years."

"Reaching the far end of the Elemental Plain allows one to sense the Abyss's breath."

Lin Caier listens to Jiang Chen and says, "So that means we must reach the far end of the Elemental Plain to find the Abyss Demon."

"Exactly."

It is indeed so.

After walking for half a day, Jiang Chen estimates they've covered roughly one third of the journey.

If they walk another half day, they'll almost reach it.

For professionals, physical stamina has never been a problem.

Walking never feels tiring at all.

As long as it isn't intense combat, walking for days and nights is fine.

The Elemental Spirits are increasing in number.

Except the Wind Elemental Spirit, which can fly, dealing with them is a bit troublesome.

The other Elemental Spirits are a matter of two or three blows.

They're not even Elite Monsters; they're just ordinary level‑34 monsters.

For a Skeleton Warrior, there's no difficulty at all.

"Jiang Chen, do you feel anything?"

Lin Caier'er, who was speaking, suddenly stopped, and her expression grew solemn.

Jiang Chen also sensed something amiss: "The ground is shaking, the elements are becoming chaotic.

Both of them became alert.

Jiang Chen's first reaction was to don Bone Armor on himself and Lin Caier'er.

With Bone Armor, safety is greatly increased.

"Someone!"

Lin Caier'er looked ahead.

A crowd of people was sprinting toward the two of them.

"They seem to be shouting something."

A voice from far away

was carried over.

A group of people, numbering in the hundreds.

Running wildly.

The distance closed, and their view sharpened.

Finally they could see clearly, and hear clearly!

"Run!"

"Run, quick!"

"Don't freeze, run for your lives!"

Elemental Riot—behind those people, a dark, looming mass of Elemental Spirits was chasing after them.

"Is this the Old Nest of the Elemental Spirits?" Lin Caier'er gasped.

Jiang Chen shook his head: "No, they've entered an Elemental Secret Realm."

Lin Caier'er jumped up happily: "Great, I was just worried we wouldn't encounter an Elemental Secret Realm."

An Elemental Secret Realm appears randomly; when it does, an Elemental Riot erupts, instantly spawning a multitude of Elemental Spirits.

The Secret Realm shrouds the area, the elements are chaotic, the Teleport Stone fails, and escape is impossible.

The Elemental Spirits that proliferate within the Secret Realm will attack and hunt any outsiders inside.

Whether Abyss monsters or Human Professionals, they are all targets of its attacks.

The origin of the Elemental Secret Realm is inseparable from that ancient great war.

Dozens to hundreds of professionals fled wildly, with thousands of Elemental Spirits behind them—the numbers were overwhelming.

If Corpse Explosion could be used, Jiang Chen would naturally disregard those Elemental Spirits.

Even ten times more would make no difference.

But Elemental Spirits have no corpses, so that's a bit troublesome—though only a trouble.

"What are you standing around for, waiting to die?"

"Are you crazy? Run!"

"Can't you see all those Elemental Spirits behind you?"

"Ignore them, let's run, they're catching up."

The desperate fugitives, seeing Jiang Chen and Lin Caier'er unmoving, shouted at them twice.

The two still remained still.

Lin Caier'er, still playful, waved at them

hand.

The little girl wasn't at all worried about the overwhelming Elemental Spirits.

Lin Caier'er's gesture made those people think, these two are damn lunatics.

Not only lunatics, but also blind.

They passed by Jiang Chen and Lin Caier'er, while a massive number of Elemental Spirits continued to hunt them.

At the same time, some Elemental Spirits noticed Jiang Chen and Lin Caier'er and lunged at the pair.

In an instant, Jiang Chen released all the skeletons.

150 Skeleton Warriors and 100 Skeleton Mages.

The Skeleton Warriors surged in like tigers into a flock of sheep, slashing through.

The Skeleton Mages' spells rained down just as overwhelmingly.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of Elemental Spirits were slain.

Hints appeared one by one.

They gained a large amount of experience and also obtained many Elemental Crystal Cores.

Skeleton Warrior Compatibility with Skeleton Mage, killing very fast.

Basically it's three down four one.

Skeleton Mage's burst-out spell damage is even more astonishing.

Two spell attacks can take away one.

Elemental Spirit massive swaths die.

Suddenly a sharp screech came from afar.

Elemental completely exploded into chaos, chaotic to an unimaginable degree.

Jiang Chen and Lin Caier were both startled, and Lin Caier felt her eardrums were badly pained by this sound.
