Chapter 460: Annihilating the Black Dragon Guild, No Possibility of Revival
The barrier was set up by the Succubus Shadai, so only he could use the corresponding teleportation items within it.
Most of the teleportation items on the others had lost their effect, but Jiang Chen's Abyss Teleport Stone was still effective, because Shadai was not yet capable of sealing it.
Currently, there were very few situations that could render the Abyss Teleport Stone ineffective, aside from Divine-level powerhouses like the Demon King, or if the distance was simply too great.
After Shadai left, the people inside the barrier woke up one after another.
What happened?
Abe Yoshino felt very confused, not knowing what had occurred.
He only knew that after waking up, the Succubus Shadai was already gone.
Jiang Chen asked softly, "Brother Lieyang, what should we do with these people? Kill them?"
Although if it were up to him, he probably wouldn't have asked a single question and just killed them outright.
But now that Huo Lieyang was here, he still had to consult his opinion.
Huo Lieyang said, "He's the son of the Black Dragon Guild's guild leader. He's been planted with a Soul Mark; even if killed, he'll revive."
"Our Blue Leaf Guild doesn't want to start a war with the Black Dragon Guild for now."
The Black Dragon Guild was the strongest professional guild in the Shadow Transformation Nation, and if it fought with the Blue Leaf Guild, it would only harm the Human Race with no benefit.
As the Young Guild Leader of the Blue Leaf Guild, Huo Lieyang naturally had to consider more.
Jiang Chen said, "I can make it so he can't revive."
Preventing revival was simple—just erase the opponent's soul.
If the soul couldn't return, the Soul Mark would fail, and naturally, revival would be impossible.
Jiang Chen hadn't understood this before, but now he did. With the Soul Burn skill, he could naturally accomplish it.
Huo Lieyang thought for a second, "If that's the case, then kill him."
Since it could permanently eliminate
future trouble, Huo Lieyang had no more concerns.
After all, many people died every day in the Lower Space; one more dead Abe Yoshino was perfectly normal.
Huo Lieyang was about to make his move, but Jiang Chen stopped him. "I'll handle it."
He slowly flew out of the group and came before Abe Yoshino.
Abe Yoshino had only just woken up at that moment and hadn't heard the conversation between Jiang Chen and Huo Lieyang.
He didn't know what a mere Level 52 guy was coming over to do.
His mind hadn't fully returned to normal yet; otherwise, he should have realized that a Level 52 person appearing in the Lower Space was abnormal to begin with.
Jiang Chen wasn't going to say a single word to him either. He killed anyone connected to Abyss Demons on sight.
He raised his finger and pointed it at Abe Yoshino.
With a hum, a Red Light flashed.
Skill: Aging Curse.
The Curse was blocked by the barrier, only taking effect within its range.
All members of the Black Dragon Guild were hit by the Curse at the same time.
The Curse also thoroughly jolted them awake.
As Top-tier Professionals above Level 70, they had extremely rich combat experience.
Almost the instant they were struck by the Curse, the healers instinctively began casting skills, trying to remove it.
Besides this, within the barrier's range on the grassland, several monsters were also hit by the Curse, and they all flew up and lunged at Jiang Chen.
"Brother Jiang, watch—"
Huo Lieyang exclaimed, but before the words left his mouth, he forcefully swallowed them back.
Jiang Chen's second skill suddenly activated.
Skill: Skeleton Prison!
In an instant, including Abe Yoshino, fine white bones grew all over everyone.
The Skeleton Prison not only had a binding ability but also carried a paralysis effect.
The paralysis effect was useless against world-class
BOSSes, but against these professionals, it produced a decent effect.
All members of the Black Dragon Guild, including the monsters that had just flown up, were frozen in midair, unable to move.
Even the centaur Shikigami beneath Abe Yoshino was the same, turning into a white-bone centaur, motionless.
The Skeleton Prison's group binding wouldn't last long.
Coupled with the level gap, the binding time wouldn't exceed 10 seconds.
But those 10 seconds were enough for Jiang Chen to kill.
A dense Undead Legion appeared in the air, nearly filling the barrier to bursting.
The back of Jiang Chen's hand grew hot, and the "Strong Soldier" skill suddenly activated.
Since he was going to wipe them out completely, Jiang Chen had to uproot them, leaving no trace behind.
Not only Abe Yoshino's soul had to be erased, but the souls of the others as well.
He wasn't sure if the others had been planted with Soul Marks.
Better safe than sorry.
Under Abe Yoshino's terrified gaze, the Skeleton Berserker swung its axe before his eyes.
Red light flickered as the Skeleton Berserker unleashed a skill on him.
A roar came from Abe Yoshino's throat, and his entire body erupted with a powerful aura as he tried to break free from the Skeleton Prison.
With a loud bang, the axe carrying the skill landed on him.
Anbei Jiyu's body instantly shattered into pieces, exploding.
Not dead?
Jiang Chen was slightly stunned; his Soul Burn still locked onto Anbei Jiyu's soul.
He prepared to completely erase his soul the instant Anbei Jiyu died and his soul lost protection.
But Anbei Jiyu hasn't died yet, Jiang Chen could sense.
"Is it a death‑substitution technique?"
"Nice skill!"
Soul Burn pulsed a few times, and a wail suddenly came from behind.
Jiang Chen's
Behind him, a Shikigami wielding a Blade had appeared at an unknown moment.
The great Blade, flashing with a fierce edge, came down straight from behind Jiang Chen.
Anbei Jiyu was curled up on the Shikigami's shoulder, his face twisted in pain, his whole body trembling.
The feeling of Soul Burn was extremely unpleasant, especially when in Strong Soldier skill state, where its power surged over tenfold and the pain increased likewise.
He could now only barely control the Shikigami to attack.
The Shikigami's Blade struck with such speed that Jiang Chen had no chance to dodge.
The Blade flash landed above Jiang Chen's head, and Bone Armor gleamed and completely blocked it.
"So weak!"
Jiang Chen was surprised in his heart: Is this a Top-tier Professional? How can it be so weak!
Even his own Bone Armor couldn't be broken.
At least it's a Mythological Class professional, but compared with World-Class Bosses like the Venomous Jiao, it's ridiculously weak.
Even an Ancient Luan Bird doesn't seem much weaker.
It's not that the Yinyang Master is too weak; it's that he is too strong.
He usually deals with World-Class Bosses.
Professionals of similar level are naturally not on his radar.
Jiang Chen's only interest vanished, and Soul Burn pulsed again.
Skeleton Great Mage and Divine Archer simultaneously launched a focused attack on Anbei Jiyu.
A booming sound rang out, and Anbei Jiyu let out another wail.
He is not a Boss; his vitality isn't that great.
A round of focused fire in Strong Soldier state is enough to leave him half‑dead.
Coupled with a second Soul Burn, Anbei Jiyu was already on the brink of death repeatedly.
As for the Shikigami's attacks, Jiang Chen ignored them.
Skeleton Berserker appeared before Anbei Jiyu as if teleporting, and swung his axe down again.
Feeling
Threatened by death, Anbei Jiyu took out a scroll and activated it instantly.
A protective shield instantly formed around him; the shield was very sturdy and blocked the Skeletons' attacks.
Anbei Jiyu also took out a vial of potion and drank it.
The recent injuries were rapidly healing.
Above Level 80 professionals, Elite Professionals, aren't that easy to kill.
But for Jiang Chen, it just means spending a bit more effort.
Even if it's hard, can it be harder than a World-Class Boss?
All of this happened within just two seconds.
Anbei Jiyu has already experienced death twice.
His face bore deep terror; he was truly frightened.
Although he didn't know Jiang Chen's identity, how could someone like that be only Level 52?
In Anbei Jiyu's eyes, Jiang Chen must be a Divine-level Strongman in disguise.
At that moment, wails rang out in succession.
Anbei Jiyu saw what was happening around him: everyone in the Black Dragon Society had their limbs cut off by axes and fell from the sky.
They weren't killed outright; first their limbs were severed, eliminating any chance of escape.
Later they would kill them one by one.
Anbei Jiyu felt his liver and gallbladder burst; the Skeletons before him were terrifying.
Each wasn't weaker than him, and the sheer number was huge.
How to fight?
There's simply no way to fight.
Jiang Chen gave him no chance to catch his breath; Skeleton Great Mage and Divine Archer launched another focused fire.
Anbei Jiyu's shield shattered with a boom.
Without thinking, Anbei Jiyu took out another scroll, activated it, forming a shield that blocked the attack.
"Useless!"
Elements boomed, exploding on the shield.
"Wait, we can talk!"
"Stop, stop!"
Anbei Jiyu shouted loudly, but Jiang Chen gave him no chance to bargain.
The shield was shattered again, Jiang Chen's
Soul Burn blossoms drifted into his Spirit world, beginning to erode the soul.
A scream, one after another.
After five or six consecutive cries, it stopped completely.
