Chapter 68 Don't come any closer!
Scattered stars.
A single thought can throw the Milky Way into chaos.
As Chen You made a sword gesture with his left hand, the spiritual power within his body surged wildly into the Ascending Dao Sword like a floodgate being opened.
Om-!
A sound, not the clang of metal clashing, but more like the strange sound of space being forcibly torn apart, erupted from the sword.
In an instant, the air within a radius of about two or three meters centered on Chen You suddenly became viscous and distorted.
Streams of sword energy, visible to the naked eye and as fine as starlight, appeared out of thin air. They were completely irregular and had no trajectory. They frantically circled, shuttled, and cut around him!
This area instantly transformed into an absolute killing zone!
Although they were described as seven sword energies, they looked more like millions of fireflies twinkling.
It is also like a sky full of stars.
"kill!"
The skeleton soldiers in the front row had their soul fires flickering violently in their eye sockets.
They raised their decaying spears and shields high and charged forward fearlessly.
However, the moment they stepped into that starry realm, it was as if they had stepped into a high-speed meat grinder.
"Snap! Snap, snap—!"
A dense, teeth-grinding sound of bones cracking filled the air.
There were no screams, no resistance.
Those level 10 undead soldiers, whether it was their tattered armor or their proud skeletal bodies.
The moment they touched those tiny sword energies, they were instantly cut, broken down, and crushed!
Before they could even last a second, the dozens of skeleton soldiers in the front row turned into a shower of flying bone fragments.
-1620!
-1710!
-1650!
……
A dense string of damage numbers obscured the view.
Cool!
That's the thrill of area-of-effect attacks!
This is a completely different concept from the previous "Stunning Swan" point kill!
These are the Qing soldiers, no...
This is fucking lawn mowing!
However, Chen You's smile faltered slightly as soon as it appeared.
Where the skeleton soldiers, shredded by the sword energy, had vanished, wisps of eerie blue soul fire still lingered.
Instead, it seemed as if they were drawn together by some force, and reunited.
On the ground, the scattered bone fragments mixed with dust began to writhe violently, and at a speed visible to the naked eye, they re-coagulated and reshaped!
In just two or three seconds, the brand-new skeleton soldiers staggered to their feet again, raised their spears once more, and locked onto Chen You.
resurrection?
Chen You raised an eyebrow.
So that's how it is. This monster has a resurrection ability, so you have to kill each monster twice.
For an ordinary squad, this would undoubtedly be a nightmare.
After finally taking one down, I switched targets, and it got back up.
It's enough to completely drain a team's mana and morale.
"That's interesting."
Instead of being annoyed, Chen You's eyes flashed with excitement.
Kill twice?
No difference!
With a thought, he maintained the "Chaotic Stars" sword formation, standing still in place.
The ensuing horde of skeletons surged forward like a madman.
Then, a scene unfolded that would send chills down the spines of any player.
Charge, touch the sword formation, and shatter.
The flames of the soul coalesce, bone powder is reshaped, and resurrection occurs.
They charged again, touched the sword formation again, and shattered it once more.
The entire process forms a perfect closed loop.
Chen You stood at the center of the storm, surrounded by sword energy and starlight, like a god.
He doesn't need to do anything; he just needs to maintain the output of spiritual energy.
The undead army before them was caught in an endless cycle of charging, dying, resurrecting, and dying again.
Just as Chen You was enjoying the thrill of mowing the grass, a white figure, riding a majestic white tiger, finally sped towards him from the direction of the valley entrance.
It was Yueying.
She followed Chen You all the way here, her heart filled with trepidation and anticipation.
The president actually got accepted as a friend!
What does this tell us?
This shows that the man named "Chen You" is not unreasonable; he just has... very high standards!
Now, he's doing the guild's pre-requisite quests all by himself, which is the best opportunity for him to show his abilities!
However, when she rounded a huge rock and saw the scene in the center of the Echo Valley battlefield, she froze on the tiger's back.
What did she see?
Mountains of corpses and seas of bones?
No, it's even more terrifying than that!
That was a death storm composed of sword energy!
Countless skeleton soldiers were fearlessly charging into the storm, only to be torn to dust, then strangely resurrected, and then crushed again.
At the very heart of that storm, a figure dressed in a magnificent Taoist robe stood quietly.
He held the sword in one hand, the blade sparkling with starlight.
He stood there, and the hundreds of undead soldiers couldn't get close to him at all!
It's him!
Chen You!
Yueying's breathing almost stopped at that moment.
Her mind went blank.
Is this...his strength?
No positioning, no blocking, no skill required...
Simply by standing there, one creates an absolute domain.
Is this... reasonable?
This is a completely different kind of shock compared to killing a boss with an exorcism talisman in a dungeon before!
While the concept of "money power" is absurd, it is at least still within the realm of comprehension.
But what she was seeing before her eyes was completely beyond her understanding of "Origin Realm"!
"Gulp."
Yueying swallowed hard, forcing herself to calm down.
Don't be intimidated!
The stronger a company is, the more valuable it is to cooperate with it!
Since he has already accepted the president's friend request, that means...
Are we now considered friendly?
Going up there to help, even if it's just dealing with a few who slipped through the net on the periphery, is a way of showing our attitude!
A friendly signal!
Thinking of this, Yueying took a deep breath, leaped off the tiger's back, and shouted loudly at the figure in the eye of the storm:
"Chen You! Let me help you!"
The voice was crisp and full of energy.
However, she had barely finished speaking.
The figure that had been standing still like a sculpture suddenly jolted.
Chen You, who was immersed in the thrill of rapidly increasing experience points, almost messed up his sword technique when he heard this shout.
Who?
Who is speaking?
He caught a glimpse of the elven girl riding a white tiger out of the corner of his eye.
Moonlight?
Why did she come along?
The next second, Chen You's hair almost stood on end.
help me?
Seriously, man?!
My [Chaotic Stars] attack is an indiscriminate area-of-effect attack!
This thing doesn't have an IFF (Identification Friend or Foe) system installed!
If you rush over and get grazed by my sword energy, the system will determine that I attacked you first, and my newbie protection period will be over on the spot!
More likely, I'll take you down in a second!
In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Chen You's mind, finally coalescing into a cry from the depths of his soul.
Don't come any closer!
"stop!"
A cold and urgent shout came from the storm of sword energy, carrying an undeniable authority.
"Don't come any closer!"
Just as Yueying was about to step forward, she suddenly stopped and froze.
She... got rejected again?
And in such a... almost scolding tone?
A huge wave of grievance and shame surged into my heart instantly.
I meant well and wanted to help, but even if you don't need it, you don't have to act like this, right?
However, when she looked up and met Chen You's turned profile, her grievances instantly froze.
What a cold face it was.
He was devoid of any emotion, his eyes sharp as knives, as if a single glance would pierce his soul.
He didn't even look at her; his gaze remained fixed on the endless stream of dead people around him.
Yueying's heart sank suddenly.
She suddenly understood.
He wasn't scolding himself.
He was... protecting himself!
Yes!
Look at that raging storm of sword energy, look at those skeletons being crushed in an instant!
Is such a battlefield something I can set foot on?
Rushing in recklessly would not only be of no help, but would also become a burden to him and distract him!
His "Don't come any closer" wasn't a sign of disdain, it was a warning!
It's a reminder!
He's just... not good at expressing himself.
He spoke the gentlest words in the coldest tone.
Having figured this out, Yueying felt no resentment at all; instead, a warm feeling welled up in her heart, and her cheeks flushed slightly.
So... he wasn't so heartless after all.
Looking at that figure standing firm amidst the sea of monsters, Yueying's gaze became increasingly complex.
Chen You, at the center of the storm, finally breathed a sigh of relief when he noticed that Yue Ying had stopped.
My dear aunt, you've really been scared!
