Chapter 712: I Will Step on You Sooner or Later

Antares's laughter shook the entire Ancient Battlefield.

The earth trembled, the mountains and forests collapsed, the sea raised gigantic waves that surged ten million meters, as if trying to pierce the sky's curve.

It laughed recklessly, almost to the point of madness.

Only Antares can understand himself, and now his mood can only be expressed through laughter.

In Dragon Race legends, the World Rune represents supreme authority, extreme danger, and unparalleled power.

Contact with the World Rune means ten deaths without a single life.

Just now, it had already prepared to fight to the death.

But the result was not as bad as imagined.

It not only survived, but lived quite well.

It even gained insight during its clash with the World Rune.

It realized that the World Rune is not entirely unstoppable; with its own power, though inferior to the World Rune, it can still delay it a little.

Even if only for one second, that counts as a success.

Jiang Chen was enveloped by laws, the heavenly and earthly laws continuously poured down, and the skill star core in the skill space had fully ignited.

With the skill activated, the curse power carried by the World Rune receded, retreating to lie dormant within the soul body.

It is invisible when not activated.

Even if Antares uses the Divine Dragon's Insight to search inch by inch, it cannot be found,

Only when it takes action can a clue be discovered.

The clone vanished, and the original consciousness entered the skill space.

Gazing at the increasingly brilliant skill star core, the consciousness let out a light laugh.

"This battle is my victory."

"Although I don't know why, no one can stop me." Even if it's the World Rune, I will tear you apart!

The consciousness exited the skill space,

returning to the norm.

Antares at this moment also ceased his roar, and the space still seemed to echo the earlier shout.

Jiang Chen looked at Antares, and Antares looked at Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen was about to speak when Antares cut in, "Don't say thanks; such emptiness is useless."

Jiang Chen looked at the self‑indulgent Antares, "I never intended to say thanks

Antares hummed, "Then what do you intend to say?"

Jiang Chen said, "Your appearance looks a bit miserable; shall I treat you?" As the mist cleared, Antares's body was exposed to Jiang Chen's view.

Antares at this moment was somewhat withered, his Dragon Scales hanging limp like wilted leaves.

The consumption of soul power was enormous, making Antares look a bit languid. Yet Antares seemed somewhat exhilarated, shaking his big head, "It's fine, it'll be better in a few days."

While speaking, the mist reappeared, once again shrouding the dragon body, revealing only a large head.

Jiang Chen said, "How did it feel to clash with the World Rune?" Though he hadn't seen the whole process, Jiang Chen could imagine it must have been perilous.

Antares's eyes flashed with brilliance, "Very thrilling, very exhilarating!" Jiang Chen replied, "Don't get carried away; there will be many more chances to enjoy." Antares widened his eyes, "You mean it will still try to stop you?" Jiang Chen nodded, "Since Level 60 I've felt a faint sense of suppression."

"The higher the level, the more apparent this feeling, but it never acted." "Until this time at Level 80, it finally took real action. Since it has acted, it cannot be only once; it will surely appear again in the future."

An

Antares said in a deep voice, "This time we were lucky, especially that final speck of purple starlight, which came from nowhere, yet managed to match the World Rune stride for stride."

Jiang Chen said, "It came from the Gifted World."

Antares looked at Jiang Chen, instinctively sensing that Jiang Chen harbored a great secret.

Jiang Chen read the clue from Antares's gaze, "I know I have a great secret, but I don't know what it is either."

"I only caught a fleeting glimpse of the Gifted World."

"When I find out, I'll tell you immediately."

Antares nodded, "Let's see your new skill; even the World Rune tries to block the skill you acquire—just how strong is it?"

Not only Antares was curious, Jiang Chen was curious as well.

At this moment the skill star core was fully lit.

When the heavenly and earthly laws ceased to surge in, the skill awakening was completely finished.

The scene before changed, Jiang Chen's vision was enveloped by a starry sky. Within the starry sky, countless strong beings of every race surged forward, covering the heavens and earth.

Distances of millions of miles were meaningless to these strong ones; they arrived in the blink of an eye. Some were like meteors, some glowed all over, crashing forward like stars.

Countless Skeletons were flung from the structures, hard to withstand.

It was still that death‑spirit mage wielding a Long Spear,

He raised the authority pillar high, its silver gem sparkling.

The light illuminated the sky, accompanied by a terrifying roar, and a Bone Dragon whose countless heads were engulfed in flames flew out from the brilliance.

They clashed with strong beings of all races; the Bone Dragon was extraordinarily powerful, and the strong ones of various races were torn to pieces by it.

They spewed

Filled with death‑laden dragon breath, swaths of strong beings turned into skeletons, their flesh erased, dying on the spot.

The scene vanished, Jiang Chen shivered violently, and looked at Antares, his eyes full of shock.

【Acquired Skill: Summon Bone Dragon】

【Summon Bone Dragon (Level 80): Summons a Bone Dragon.】 It turned out to be the Summon Bone Dragon, a new summoning skill.

Just watching the skill demonstration, one can feel the Bone Dragon's might. Earlier, among the various races, even the Dragon Race was killed by the Bone Dragon.

Antares asked, "What's wrong? You look so surprised— is the skill that powerful?"

Jiang Chen nodded, "I'll look at other skills, and we'll discuss later."

He then started to check the second Skill.

The scene before his eyes changed again,

Jiang Chen felt a slight shock; every time a Skill demonstration appears, it means that Skill is extremely powerful.

The previous several Skills were all like that.

But each time an Awakening Skill is triggered, only one Skill shows a demonstration screen.

He didn't expect that the Level 80 Skill would be like this for two in a row.

It was still the same Starry Sky as before, and the great battle continued.

The Starry Sky was already filled with corpse bones, some belonging to strongmen of various races, and also of the undead spirits,

At that moment, the Necromancer raised the staff again.

Mysteriously, clusters of silver‑white Flame appeared in the Starry Sky,

The silver‑white Flame is the flame of the undead world; it has no warmth, yet carries an astonishing aura of death.

These Flames fell onto the corpse bones, and the bones began to revive one after another.

The flesh and blood were reborn, restoring to their former appearance in the blink of an eye.

In the blink of an eye, the golden parts of the corpse bones in the Starry Sky disappeared, turning back into strong…

Only, the bodies of the strongmen of each race emitted

a black aura, completely different from before.

Jiang Chen, seeing from a godlike perspective, could see very clearly that these people did not look like the living. After being reborn, the strongmen of the races quickly joined the battle, but they had already turned their guns around and began attacking their own.

After being revived by the Necromancer, they became the Necromancer's subordinates, obeying the Necromancer's orders.

Moreover, the revived ones were stronger than when they were alive. Countless strongmen then died at the hands of their former comrades. The scene before him shattered and vanished again, but the shock in Jiang Chen's heart was hard to erase.

This demonstration made him once again realize the terror of the Necromancer.

Fight to sustain the fight.

It can only be described with this phrase,

Obtained Skill: Rebirth of the Dead

Rebirth of the Dead: Using a corpse or soul as a medium, it revives the target within a short time, making them become one's subordinate and also enhancing the target's combat power; the rebirth lasts for 24 hours.
