Chapter 451: The Poisonous Flood Dragon Is Full of Treasures; Dissection Is Unavoidable
The attraction emitted by the poisonous flood dragon was so strong that the snake monsters rushed forward as if they were mad, heedless of everything.
Their desire for evolution had already surpassed their instinctual fear of life and death.
Jiang Chen thoroughly enjoyed the exhilaration of this moment.
Experience surged as if it had boarded a rocket, soaring rapidly.
Each time he released a Skill, it meant that hundreds of monsters above Level 70 were blown up.
The snake monsters came in a line, delivering themselves to their deaths.
Since his Job Change, Jiang Chen has never had such a thrilling experience.
In just a few minutes, his Experience Value had already increased by 50%.
After Level 50, his leveling speed sharply slowed.
Many people need several months, even a year, to gain a level, which is quite normal.
Therefore, acquiring Experience so quickly is a huge boost for Jiang Chen.
Seeing wave after wave of snake monsters still charging from behind, Jiang Chen knew he was about to level up.
After Level 50, in the Upper Space Core Area, fighting all the way to Antares's location, it took a little over half a month and only raised his Experience by 20%.
Upon entering the Lower Space, a massive number of giant‑leaf dwarf trees contributed nearly 5% of Experience.
Now his Experience has reached 80%.
This means those snake monsters contributed over 50% of the Experience Value.
After Level 50, the leveling speed dropped dramatically.
Many people take several months to gain a level.
Even a level per year is considered normal.
Which Top‑tier Professional isn't middle‑aged?
Even geniuses like Li Xueru and Hong Jishi were the Heavenly Pride of their era.
They also only became Top‑tier Professionals after the age of 30.
As for stepping into Divine Level, furthermore
it's something that happens after the age of 50.
Jiang Chen knows his current leveling speed is astonishing, and such a case is rare in Human Race history.
An upgrade speed like Jiang Ruo's is not only unheard of by Jiang Chen, but has never appeared in Human Race history.
The snake monsters kept coming, and Jiang Chen's blasts made his whole body feel relieved.
However, Jiang Chen also noticed something.
This ground is truly too solid.
From the recent battle until now, he has exploded countless waves.
The ground hasn't even a single crater.
Even the nearby stones engulfed by the Explosion remain perfectly intact.
This kind of solidity itself is unusual.
Not only this ground; now recalling, the ground beneath the giant‑leaf dwarf trees is the same.
The solidity is extraordinary.
Yet that poisonous pool corrodes the ground.
And this corrosion continues.
Jiang Chen speculated that the ground's tremor seemed intended to drive something out of the poisonous pool.
As for whether this guess is accurate, it's hard to say now; it needs verification.
The corpses have long piled up like a mountain.
Regardless of the direction the snake monsters come from, whether from ground or sky, they cannot cross the Thunder Barrier even a half step.
Jiang Chen stands here, unable to surpass it.
A massive scent of blood spreads over this ground.
It masks the smell of poisonous smoke and also awakens the snake monsters' instincts.
Finally, some snake monsters began to retreat.
The number of charging snake monsters started to decrease.
Their instincts tell them they cannot pass; passing means certain death.
White Light emanated from Jiang Chen's body; he finally leveled up.
He reached Level 51.
All attributes increased, the total attribute rose by 16,350 to 455,164.
Compared to other professions
the Amplify is astonishing.
Other Mid Mythic-level professionals, between Level 50 and 59, each level‑up adds roughly 10 to total attributes.
He exceeds them by over 6,000, surpassing them by 60%.
And this gap will grow larger as the level rises.
The ultra‑high base attributes and the ultra‑high Divine Power will eventually cause Jiang Chen's attributes to completely surpass all professionals.
Even in the future, he may surpass the World BOSS.
The three, including Li Xueru, once estimated that this possibility is not impossible.
The snake monsters finally all retreated completely.
Leaving corpses scattered everywhere.
At least more than 100,000 snake monsters have died here.
Jiang Chen not only gained a huge amount of experience, but also harvested a massive quantity of basic materials.
These materials, although not suitable for Mythic-level Equipment, can still be used to forge Platinum-tier Equipment, or even Quasi-Mythic-grade Equipment.
Even for Jiang Chen, these materials count as a considerable fortune.
Later, spending a lot of money to purchase High-level Skill Scrolls will be necessary.
The Skeleton Berserker, wielding an axe, began to overturn the corpse of the Poisonous Jiao.
This is the corpse of a World BOSS, so its value won't be low.
Like the Earth Touch Dragon God, although its whole body is extremely poisonous, some parts are edible and possess very special effects.
The leg meat of the Earth Touch Dragon God tastes delicious and can quickly restore Spiritual Power.
Jiang Chen thinks that although the Poisonous Jiao is more toxic than the Earth Touch Dragon God, extremes may reverse, and perhaps some usable parts exist.
Even if not, its skin, bones, and the like might still be decent materials.
After all, it's an Level 85 World-Class Boss, so
there must be some special aspects.
Hundreds of Skeleton Berserkers acted together, carefully and swiftly dissecting the Poisonous Jiao.
Most of the Jiao's scales on the Poisonous Jiao have been charred, only a few intact ones remain, not many.
Jiang Chen wastes nothing and takes those intact Jiao scales.
The Poisonous Jiao's whole body is saturated with poison; even in death, the poison does not dissipate.
During the dissection, poison gas spreads wildly like a dense mist.
Jiang Chen is surrounded by White Light, and his Bone Armor glitters, shielding against the poison gas.
Jiang Chen knows he has a passive State Immunity skill that grants immunity to all abnormal conditions.
Including the poisoned state.
Although the poison gas harms him, it does not poison him.
The skeletons are different; after this battle, most Skeleton Berserkers have been poisoned.
Some Skeleton Great Mages and Skeleton Sharpshooters are also poisoned.
These poisons cannot be removed.
The Lich General's Purge skill is ineffective against states above Level 70.
In other words, these poisoned skeletons must endure until the toxicity fades.
As for how long it will take, Jiang Chen does not know.
At this moment, under the effect of fully linked talents, all skeletons share the damage together.
The Lich General continuously heals, and can keep it up.
The Skeleton Berserker continues dissecting the Poisonous Jiao, removing all useless, poison-laden flesh.
After the surface flesh is removed, a layer of pure white fascia appears.
The fascia runs through the entire body of the Poisonous Jiao.
It emits a jade-like White Light within the green Poison Mist.
The fascia is a thin layer, only two fingers thick, yet it is completely unaffected by the poison gas.
Moreover, the Skeleton Berserker's axe can hardly damage it.
It not only resists poison, but is also sufficiently tough.
Jiang Chen instantly recognizes that this fascia is extraordinary.
Soon, the intact fascia is peeled off.
The fascia, over a hundred meters long, resembles a massive jade stone, exceedingly beautiful.
Detection Technique is cast upon it.
Poisonous Jiao's fascia: material for Mythic-level Equipment, possessing extreme poison resistance, usable to forge Mythic-level inner armor.
Jiang Chen's eyes glow faintly.
Sure enough, it never dropped Mythic-level Equipment itself, yet the dissected fascia is top-quality Mythic-level material.
After removing the fascia, bone is exposed.
Similarly, a gigantic bone over a hundred meters long; the Poisonous Jiao has only this single spine bone.
The bone appears semi-transparent, with spinal cord seemingly flowing inside.
Jiang Chen continues using Detection Technique.
Detection Technique, the most widely used skill among the Human Race, rarely disappoints.
Poisonous Jiao's spine bone: material for crafting Mythic-level jewelry, also usable to upgrade Mythic-level Equipment.
Jiang Chen's attention is now drawn to the spinal cord within the spine bone.
He thinks the spinal cord may be even more valuable than the bone.
"Split it open, take the spinal cord."
Jiang Chen feels a surge and issues the order.
The Skeleton Berserker cracks one segment of the bone, and a fresh fragrance instantly spreads.
The scent is invigorating; Jiang Chen, after a single whiff, feels his spirit greatly uplifted.
Where the fragrance passes, the poison smoke is swiftly cleared, and even the poison on the skeletons is resolved at that moment.
"What powerful detoxification!" Jiang Chen exclaims, amazed that these spinal cords possess such miraculous effect.
"Poisonous Jiao's spine
Marrow: a Mythic-level antidote that can neutralize poison; each drop taken increases poison-element immunity by 1%.
Unfortunately the amount of spinal cord is really a bit low; each segment only yields two or three drops.
Jiang Chen currently has no suitable container, so he simply lets it stay in the bone for now and will deal with it later.
At this point, the Poisonous Jiao has been completely dissected, and there are no other valuable items left.
Jiang Chen turns and walks to the edge of the poison pool.
Looking closely, through the green surface of the water, one can see many Poisonous Crystals.
Although a lot was expelled earlier, the poison pool still contains a large residue.
A quick glance reveals at least a few hundred pieces.
Jiang Chen's gaze fixes on the center of the poison pool, perhaps something valuable can be obtained from there.
