The last eight-level strong man retreated in fear, and the skeleton jumped up and chopped it down with a single blow.
"puff!"
The stone knife passed by, and Level 8 fell down and died!
Logically speaking, he is a powerful eighth level, so he shouldn't be so weak.
But when facing the stone knife, he felt a strong pressure. Under this pressure, every movement he made became very difficult and his movements became very slow.
And this sword is so powerful.
In one encounter, all the eighth-level experts died, and the remaining seventh-level ones also fled without a trace in an instant.
The crisis here was resolved by the skeleton.
Lei Ming and others stood there with shock on their faces. This skeleton that appeared from nowhere must be too powerful in combat.
The enemy fled desperately, and the crisis has been resolved.
However, they did not relax their vigilance, because this skeleton looked more dangerous and might become a new danger.
So they stood there motionless, staring at the skeleton warily.
After killing other existences, Zi Chen was about to leave. He did not intend to recognize these people, but suddenly he felt an unusual energy aura.
He stopped next to the corpse of the eighth-level expert, then bent down and groped for a while on the other person's body, and then found some crystal stones that emitted colorful light.
If his perception was correct, these crystals at this moment contained the power of God.
Although it was very faint, he could feel it.
Coming out of the abyss, Zi Chen paid a huge price.
The heart of the god had consumed all its energy, leaving only the bones of the god.
And as time went by, he was unable to absorb energy replenishment from the outside world, and he was constantly consuming the energy in the God Bone.
One day, the energy in the God's bones will be exhausted.
And by that time, Zi Chen will become an unbeatable skeleton, with no defense equivalent to immortality, but no means to destroy the enemy.
Seeing these crystal stones at this moment, some other thoughts came to his mind.
I saw him holding the crystal in his hand, and with a thought, the trace of divine power belonging to the crystal appeared from the crystal and entered his arm.
It's just that this divine power is too rare and very mixed, and only a little bit is absorbed by the physical body.
But this little bit is already very good for Zi Chen, proving that his current state can really absorb the power of God.
He knew that this was the divine crystal of the City of Gods, so he had to go to the City of Gods.
"Pa!" "Pa!" "Pa!"...
All these divine crystals fell, and all the divine power in them was absorbed.
Mai Zhu and others looked at this scene in shock. This skeleton was actually able to absorb the divine power in the divine crystal.
It seems that this is a method only available to the gods, right?
But at this moment, the fear in their hearts diminished a bit.
Through this, they no longer think that the other party is just a brutal skeleton and should be intelligent.
Sure enough, the skeleton then searched other corpses and finally took out all the divine crystals.
Soon, all the divine power in these divine crystals was absorbed.
After doing all this, Zi Chen was ready to leave.
"Try this."
At this moment, Lei Ming's voice sounded, and a palm-sized crystal appeared in his hand, and he threw it towards this side.
Zi Chen subconsciously took it.
This is a crystal that shines with colorful light, but unlike the previous divine crystal, it contains a more powerful but also more complex divine power.
Zi Chen grabbed it in his hand and quickly absorbed the divine power in it.
These divine powers soon entered the physical bones. After the natural refining of the divine bones, after wandering around in the divine bones, some actually entered the hearts of the divine gods.
The God's Heart, which had long been on the verge of withering, seemed to be showing signs of recovery.
This scene made Zi Chen very surprised.
Obviously, the crystal stone Lei Ming took out was indeed extraordinary.
Although this energy cannot compare with the power of God, it is the power of God. For him now, it is definitely what he needs most.
If you want to maintain the current strong combat power, this kind of thing is essential.
So he turned back, looked at Lei Ming and said, "Is there any more?"
Lei Ming took out a piece again and threw it to Zi Chen, and then said: "I don't have the last piece with me anymore, but there is still one in the City of God. If you have no other purpose, you can go to the City of God to get it with me.
Some."
"Do you have a lot of these things?" Zi Chen asked.
"This is called the Spiritual Crystal, and it is the latest product in this world. Recently we discovered a mineral vein, which is full of this kind of crystal. The people you just killed are the people who competed with us for the mineral vein," Lei Ming said.
"Is this divine crystal also useful to you?"
Lei Ming shook his head and said: "It's not useful to me for the time being, but it is useful for level nine."
Zi Chen asked: "What's the use?"
Lei Ming hesitated slightly, and then said: "This is no longer a secret, and it doesn't matter if I tell you. After refining this divine crystal, if you are lucky enough, you can advance to the half-ancestral level from the ninth level."
"Half-ancestor?"
This is an unfamiliar realm that Zi Chen has never heard of.
Lei Ming said: "This is a long-ago realm. It is difficult for today's monks to reach this realm, so gradually this realm is forgotten by people. This realm corresponds to the false gods among the gods!"
When Zi Chen heard this, he was shocked in his heart.
He has always had doubts in his heart. The highest realm of mankind is the Great Sage, and it is so easy for false gods to kill the Great Sage. How did the strong men in the past fight against the gods?
Then how did the four ancient ancestors trap and kill a god?
How could the Craftsman Ancestor be afraid of the gods in the divine city?
Now, he understands.
Since there is a semi-ancestral state, then naturally there is an ancestral state.
Obviously, craftsman ancestor or the four ancient ancestors are not just a title, but represent a realm.
After refining the Divine Spirit Crystal, one can advance to the Half-Ancestral level at level nine and be able to compete with false gods.
Is this related to the changes in the rules here?
In other words, the rumors that have been circulating in this world have really become true this time.
At this moment, Zi Chen had all kinds of doubts in his heart, all of which could only be revealed after entering the divine city.
So he nodded and expressed his willingness to follow Lei Ming.
"I wonder what I call this brother?" Lei Ming asked, cupping his fists.
"Skeleton."
Zi Chen said that this was a name he had thought of for a long time.
Now he is neither human nor ghost, so he can only use this name. If he uses Zi Chen's name, it will only cause trouble.
Lei Ming was stunned for a moment, but in the end he didn't ask any more questions. After the Mai family disposed of the corpses, the group walked towards the City of Gods.
On the way, Ma Ya and Chang Feng stepped forward to express their thanks.
The feeling of familiarity that Malya had towards the skeleton completely disappeared and never appeared in his mind again.
"It takes a little effort." Zi Chen said calmly to the two people who were grateful.
During this period, he refined the second divine crystal and stored some divine power in his heart.
The power of God in his heart has been completely consumed, and what is being replenished at this moment is only the power of God.
But this was already an unexpected surprise for Zi Chen.
Arriving outside the City of Gods, after many years, Zi Chen once again saw the gate that blocked out all four levels.
Around the gate, there were many dejected Level 4 people. They were only one step away from Level 5, but they couldn't get in.
The only result of forcing entry is death.
During this period, there was a Level 4 who traveled with Zi Chen, but he failed to break through.
Looking at the portal, Zi Chen felt a little emotional. He vaguely remembered that when he left last time, he went out with Yi Qian, but he never expected that when he came to this place again, he would be like this.
"I don't know how Yiqian is doing."
He walked into this city of gods, and it was still so huge, like a real and huge world.
It's just that compared to the last time, there are more monks in this world, because almost all the level five and above from the outside world have come to this world.
But most of the beings who came here had tragic fates. At this moment, they can find a relatively stable job and even have the opportunity to become a god.
And this job is mining.
In this world, not only this mine that produces divine crystals has appeared, but also other mines have appeared. Nowadays, miners are in urgent need.
Because most miners will be affected by the forces competing for the mineral veins from both sides during the mining process, and then die.
This is a high-risk industry, but it is also an industry full of opportunities.
"Follow me to the craftsman's house."
Arriving at the divine city, Lei Ming looked at Maixiao and said.
"Hey, that's all."
Mai Zhao sighed, the Mai family used to be a big family, and even had a certain influence in this city of gods.
But with the discovery of the divine crystal mineral veins, various battles broke out, and the Mai family was destroyed.
In these years, there are not only a few families that have been destroyed like the Mai family.
It can be said that this world of gods is facing a reshuffle at the moment. Under various crises, even the once powerful Craftsman Mansion is now in danger.
After stopping a carriage and paying some divine crystals, the group of people headed towards the craftsman's house.
Along the way, Zi Chen found that the original leisurely rhythm of the city had disappeared. All pedestrians quickened their pace and walked in a hurry, showing the tense atmosphere in the entire city.
Several people came outside the Jiangman's Mansion, and Zi Chen, who stepped out of the carriage, discovered that the two beast ancestors who had been guarding the door were missing.
After entering the Jiang Mansion, the beast ancestors who stayed here were also missing.
They are all first-generation war beasts or ancient beasts, but whether they are from the ancestral realm or not, Zi Chen doesn't know yet.
"Can the Master Craftsman be at the mansion?"
After entering the craftsman's house and looking at a middle-aged man walking towards him, Lei Ming asked aloud.
"No, the craftsman ancestor went to the city within the city and has not appeared yet." After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he left in a hurry.
"What are you going to do?"
"Something happened in the mine. I have to go take a look."
"Is it urgent?"
"If we don't take a look, the mineral veins discovered by the Mai family back then will change hands now."
After saying that, the other party left quickly.
"Brother Zhi, please rest here first, I have to go take a look." Lei Ming said.
