Chapter 142 The Shattered Land of the Deceased

Hearing Hu Tao's words, Su Xiao was slightly stunned before nodding in agreement.

Even though Chen Luo had clarified from the outset that the key to this battle was the monster undergoing metamorphosis within the black light pillar.

Even though Su Xiao could sense the terror of darkness and death emanating from the light pillar.

Su Xiao still wholeheartedly agreed with Hu Tao's words.

This man before him must be the number one under heaven!

Chen Luo, with the light and shadow of skills flashing rapidly in his eyes, heard the discussion from the two girls beside him and his lips curved upwards.

...

The sun gradually set in the west. After a day of its long-lost radiance, a rare warmth from the sunlight lingered in this desolate city.

However, this warmth could not penetrate the central area of the bloody battle.

The crimson legion and the black sea of bones were fighting fiercely.

The endless bloody battle seemed to have no end, continuing unceasingly.

On the Bronze Hand, hidden class professionals quietly observed the battlefield, familiarizing themselves with their powers. Chen Luo, standing at the forefront of everyone, exuded an aura that was continuously deepening, as profound as the sea.

In contrast, the towering black light pillar in the灰白大地 (gray-white land) was steadily shrinking.

But as the light pillar diminished, the ominous aura grew even more potent.

The sun set and the moon rose, its blood-red light casting upon the land.

Bathed in this ominous moonlight, the battle in the mortal world continued.

At this time, most of the legion soldiers were returning to repair their armor and replenish their food. With the cooperation of a portion of Chen Luo's consciousness, there were no disturbances.

And the dark ocean was also being gradually devoured as time turned.

Time quietly flowed, and three days had passed in the blink of an eye.

The system's settlement had been completed two or three more times.

The human race's evaluation did not rise, and the surviving population fluctuated slightly but did not decrease significantly.

However, none of this concerned Donghai City.

Ninety percent of the survivors in this city were engaging in a terrifying fierce battle with the invaders under Chen Luo's power.

The gray-white land of the dead possessed an extremely terrifying carrying capacity.

Originally, this land still retained a large number of human structures, but after Chen Luo's initial greeting with the "Spark Spear."

The power, akin to a small nuclear explosion, had completely destroyed all the buildings.

Yet, even so, this gray-white land remained completely unshaken.

It was fortunate for the carrying capacity of the land of the dead, otherwise, the battle between the living and the undead over the past three days would have likely shattered the earth.

At this moment, after three days of fierce combat, the combat power of all human beings had increased again. Both their skills and combat techniques had been greatly enhanced through the tempering of blood and fire.

The originally vast sea of death's bones had also been worn down by more than half.

After multiple resurrections from the land of the dead, fragmented soul fragments continuously annihilated, and the undead legion began to substantially decrease.

At this point, the boundless sea of undead was less than twenty percent.

Countless bone-combined beasts were engaging in fierce battles with the soldiers.

It seemed that if this continued, the boundless sea of undead could be completely annihilated in about another day.

In the gray-white land, the black light pillar, protected by an indestructible transparent barrier, had already dissipated by more than half.

The black light pillar gradually thinned, faintly revealing a towering, bone-white giant tower.

On the Bronze Hand, Chen Luo gazed at the bone-white giant tower, his eyes deep and serene.

Suddenly, a wave of gray-white fluctuations erupted from the bone-white giant tower.

The gray-white light wave instantly swept across the entire land of the dead, and only after reaching the edge of the gray-white land did this light wave abruptly disappear.

"Holy crap, what the hell was that?"

"It shot out from that tower!"

"Guys, does anything feel off about you?"

"Nothing's wrong, the system didn't give any prompts."

The legion members were startled by the sudden light wave, but upon closer inspection, they found no changes.

Just as everyone was feeling confused,

*Crack...*

The previously indestructible gray land suddenly emitted a light sound.

Chen Luo's gaze sharpened as he looked towards the gray-white land. His inhuman eyesight allowed him to clearly see a very, very fine crack appearing on the gray-white land:

"All troops, be on alert!!!"

Chen Luo's voice echoed clearly in everyone's ears. The legion soldiers instinctively followed Chen Luo's command, concentrating their attention.

The next moment...

*BOOM!!!*

The originally imperceptible crack suddenly expanded to cover the entire battlefield.

The next moment, the crack exploded and shattered...

Countless massive black shadows rushed out from the crack.

"ROAR!!!"

"Heh heh..."

"Dea...th!!!"

Accompanied by malicious howls, these figures that rushed out from the depths of the earth exuded extremely terrifying auras.

The shattering of the earth caused the death's bones and legion soldiers to be flung into the air.

But this did not hinder the greatly enhanced soldiers. Even with extremely low true attributes, under Chen Luo's buffs, every soldier was very agile.

In the rain of shattered gray-white land, streaks of crimson figures stepped on small pieces of broken land, agilely descending towards the ground.

This was considered the more cautious approach.

As for the less cautious soldiers, relying on their superior buffs, they directly endured the bombardment of the broken land and plummeted straight towards the ground.

Yes, after the surface layer of gray-white land shattered, a brand new layer of gray-white land was revealed.

And on this new land of the dead, it was densely packed with brand new monsters!

Ghouls with hunched bodies, resembling humans with their skin peeled off, but with bodies like small giants.

Flesh abominations, even larger in size, like moving small buildings, exuding extremely terrifying and ferocious auras.

Beside these building-sized abominations were skeleton mages clad in black robes, with bone fire flickering in their eyes and profound magical fluctuations flowing over their bodies.

And on the solid land of the dead, there were thick death worms, their mouths filled with spiral teeth, waiting for the soldiers to fall and become their meals.

"Damn it!!"

"It's over, I should have just dropped down!!"

"Brother! Give me a hand! I don't want to deliver takeout!"

"Ahhh!! I'm in!"

Amidst the shrill screams, those exceptionally brave soldiers were swallowed into the bodies of the mature death worms without any resistance.

It wasn't that they didn't want to resist, but these monsters were no longer beings they could contend with.

Each mature death worm's strength had reached the Lord level, and there seemed to be some elite individuals who had reached the Nightmare domain.

Gazing at the legion soldiers being rapidly annihilated by the monsters, Chen Luo's eyes flickered.

"Then, it's time for you to make your move, my Legion Commanders!"
