Chapters 301 and 302: This Is... The Inheritance?

The ground in front of Jiang He shattered, and then a 3-meter-tall human skeleton appeared in front of him.

It is the remnant soul of the Bone King.

The remnant soul of the Bone King should retain the image of the Bone King during his lifetime. Although the figure is not very tall, it gives people a very strong feeling.

The bones all over its body exude a jade-like luster, and it holds a stone sword in its right hand. It is very similar to the giant sword outside, and it should be a mini version reduced in the same proportion.

The eye sockets of the remnant soul of the Bone King are burning with two groups of dark soul fire. It retains part of the strength and a small part of the memory of the Bone King during his lifetime. As a trial guardian, he has been sleeping in this battlefield of the undead for thousands of years. Today, he was finally revealed. Awakened by Jiang He.

There was the sound of loose soil from all around, and around the remnant soul of the Bone King, its former undead relatives began to slowly revive.

Lich, guhuo bird, skeleton two-headed snake...

They are all high-level leaders, but there is no monarch level.

The racial limit of these undead creatures is only high-level commanders, so even if they have been sleeping in the undead battlefield for thousands of years, they are still only high-level commanders, and they will only wake up when called by the remnant soul of the Bone King.

"Challenger, sign up!"

After the skeleton of the Bone King regained consciousness, he pointed the Bone Sword at the challenger in front.

Then the moment it raised its head, it saw Jiang He and the undead army densely packed behind him, which could not be seen beyond the horizon.

The number is tens of thousands!

There are also four undead monarchs!

It silently glanced at the few hundred leader-level undead family members beside it again, and fell into silence.

Bone King’s Remnant Soul:? ? ?

Where did this bandit come from? Are you trying to collect all the other undead creatures in the undead battlefield and challenge them?

If the perception is correct, this guy's own strength is obviously only the sixth level of command, right? How did he do that! ?

You know, the Bone King's test for inheritors is quite strict.

A sixth-level "undead creature" like Jiang He will face an undead army composed of hundreds of high-level undead creatures in a month.

But the guy in front of me, the combat power of the undead army is too high, right?

It can be said that it has already lost without fighting!

After all, in the second trial, the leaders of both sides are not allowed to take action. It is purely a battle between legions!

Just the two monarch-level bone dragons, the Undead Tyrant and the Lich King, can sweep through its legions.

Jiang He didn't understand the meaning of the Bone King's remains. It was a bit inconvenient that the mechanical Rubik's Cube was not there.

But looking at the posture of the skeleton of the Bone King pointing the sword at him, it should mean "the challenge begins" or something like that, right?

"superior!"

Therefore, Jiang He also raised the ghost sword in his hand, and the undead creatures behind him surged toward the undead species next to the remnant soul of the Bone King like a tide.

"Wait! You... are very good! You passed the second trial!"

Seeing this, the Bone King's remnant soul quickly talked to Jiang He through telepathy.

It still feels sorry for its "subordinates".

"stop!"

Jiang He commanded his undead army to stop attacking. He felt a little pity, otherwise he could use it for his own purposes after defeating the Bone King's remnant soul army.

"What time is it now?"

Bone King Remnant Soul suddenly asked.

It noticed that Jiang He could not understand Common Language, indicating that a long time had passed since the civilization of the outside world had changed.

"More than 10,000 years have passed since the Bone King's era. Of course, time flows faster in this world. You should have been sleeping for at least 50,000 years."

Jiang He replied.

Time kills all creatures, except undead creatures.

Although their soul fire will gradually fade, the soul fire of truly top undead creatures is almost eternal!

"Has it been this long?"

The skeleton of the Bone King moved all the bones in its body and felt a little emotional. It was a trial guardian shaped by the Bone King's own ray of soul fire, but it also had its own independent thoughts.

After being created, it was buried in the earth by the Bone King, waiting for the arrival of the first trialer.

I didn’t expect that this wait would take tens of thousands of years.

"You appear to be a human."

Bone King Remains saw through Jiang He's true nature, but didn't say much.

For a long time, its dark soul fire stared at Jiang He and said slowly:

"You still have one last test. If you pass it, you can obtain the inheritance of the Bone King. And the content of the last test is-defeat me!"

Hearing this, Jiang He wanted to complain.

Good guy, a group fight is better than a one-on-one fight, right?

He quickly used the [Picture Book] to scan the information about the Bone King's remnant soul.

After all, only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you be victorious in every battle.

[Name] Lord of the Dead (remnant soul, sealed state)

[Attribute] Undead

[Rank] Commander tenth level (sealed state)

[Potential] Immortal High Level

[Skills] Death Gaze, Soul Gathering, Song of Death, Fog of Death, Resurrection of the Undead, Bone God Body, Death Charge, Shattering Slash, Skeleton Reorganization, Undead Fire...

[Introduction] The remnant soul of the uncrowned king among undead creatures was transformed by a trace of soul fire from the "Bone King" and inherited all the fighting experience and fighting skills of the Bone King.

[Emotion] Excitement: 20 (it is a little excited about your arrival)

After reading the information about the Bone King's remnant soul, Jiang He's eyes became solemn.

The remnant soul of the Bone King in front of him not only possessed the strength of a quasi-monarch, but his combat skills and combat experience far exceeded him.

He also mastered a super-class skill, the Bone God Dharma Body. When Jiang He was looking for skills for Jiang Yingying not long ago, he saw this skill in the skill library of the Investigation Bureau.

[Bone God Dharma Body]

Drawing part of the power from his own undead followers, he condensed a powerful skeleton Dharma Body. The strength of the skeleton Dharma Body is related to the quality and quantity of the undead followers.

This kind of skill that can burst out far beyond one's own strength is particularly precious. Unfortunately, this skill only exists in ancient records and has long been lost. I didn't expect that the remnant soul of the Bone King in front of him actually mastered it.

At this moment, Jiang He really had no confidence in his heart.

"Jiang Ying, stay focused! This guy is very strong!"

"Ying!"

Jiang Ying responded.

"Get ready, I'm going to attack."

The voice of the remnant soul of the Bone King came from the bottom of Jiang He's heart, and then he saw the remnant soul of the Bone King suddenly stepped on the ground with his right foot, bursting out a series of afterimages, and raised his sword to chop him.

The body of the remnant of the Bone King was not tall, but it burst out with extremely terrifying speed and strength.

Jiang He was highly focused and dodged nimbly before the bone sword came, but the next attack from the Bone King Remains followed!

Oblique slash, heavy slash, thrust!

The swordsmanship of the Bone King Remains was like flowing water. He clearly did not use any skills, but he showed a strong dominance on the battlefield.

After only three rounds of confrontation, Jiang He fell into an absolute disadvantage and was completely suppressed. The rhythm of the battle was firmly controlled by the Bone King Remains.

Whoosh!

The fourth round of confrontation.

When the Bone King's sword fell on Jiang He again, Jiang He did not dodge, but raised the Ghost Sword and stabbed at the Soul Fire in the eye socket of the Bone King Remains.

There was a light layer of white frost on the Ghost Sword, and there was a thick gray death aura around it.

Frost energy and death energy condensed to the extreme.

Frost swordsmanship + dead soul slash!

This attack was completed by Jiang He and the Ice Ghost King together!

Puff!

The Bone King's sword first fell on Jiang He's body, but it seemed to have chopped on a cloud of mist, and it actually went straight through Jiang He's "body"!

Ghost system high-level skill [Void]

Turn yourself into a ghost completely, and you can be immune to most physical attacks.

At the same time, Jiang He's full-strength attack also fell on the skull of the Bone King's remains.

Originally, he wanted to stab the eye socket, but the Bone King's reaction speed was very fast. He slightly tilted his head, and Jiang He's attack fell on the skull.

The ghost sword collided with the jade-like bones, making a crisp sound like the collision of gold and stone.

Jiang He's full-strength attack actually only broke a small gap on the jade-like bones of the Bone King's remains, but the powerful reaction force almost made Jiang He unable to hold the sword steadily.

While he was still in the ghost state, Jiang He quickly pulled away.

"Not bad, you can actually take three of my moves."

The Bone King's remains said calmly, and then continued to walk towards Jiang He.

Golden flames burst out of Jiang He's golden pupils, but his heart was not calm.

Bone King's fighting style is very similar to Zi Yue's, both rely on high speed and high burst to directly end the opponent.

But in addition to attack and speed, Bone King also has maxed out defense, reaction and recovery capabilities.

This is a hexagonal warrior!

Is there any way to defeat this monster?

Whoosh!

There is no time to think more, because the sword of the Bone King's remains has been swung again!

Jiang He dodged again, and at the same time, the possessed Ice Ghost King transformed into a dead claw and attacked from behind the Bone King's remains.

Fortunately, Jiang He was not fighting alone!

But the damage of the dead claw to the Bone King's remains was still negligible.

Dang! Dang! Dang!

The battle continued.

Jiang He mainly dodged, and when he couldn't dodge, he could only use the ghost sword to block.

Every time he blocked, the powerful force of the Bone King's residual soul would pass through the sword and shock him a long distance.

If he had not been a dead body now, he would have died countless times.

But after a few rounds of fighting, Jiang He found something wrong, and a strange look appeared on his face.

Because the remnant soul of the Bone King did not seem to intend to defeat him immediately, but the attack frequency had been maintained at the limit of Jiang He and the Ice Ghost King.

It seemed to be... feeding itself now?

No matter what the remnant of the Bone King thought, this was undoubtedly his chance!

As time passed, Jiang He, who had been in a state of extreme, slowly found his own rhythm.

He felt more comfortable with the mobilization of frost energy and could exert more powerful power.

He began to integrate the frost sword technique and turned it into something that truly belonged to him!

If Jiang He had time to pay attention to his contract book, he would find that in his skill column, the level of frost sword technique had quietly become LV5.

More importantly, the tacit understanding between him and the Ice Ghost King improved rapidly, two in one, attacking and defending synchronously!

After half an hour of fighting.

Jiang He and the Ice Ghost King's spirits had already reached their limits, but they still forced themselves to concentrate on meeting every attack from the Bone King's remnant soul, and patiently looked for opportunities to counterattack.

Now he had roughly figured out the attack pattern of the Bone King's remnant soul.

Whoosh!

Another sword came, and Jiang He dodged it sideways. The Ice Ghost King used the Wraith Gaze, and he stabbed the Soul Fire of the Bone King's remnant soul with a sword.

The death energy turned into a wraith, trying to affect the spirit of the Bone King's remnant soul, but it was shattered in less than half a second.

But the moment Jiang He stabbed the ghost sword in his hand, a burst of frost energy bloomed at the tip of the sword, and a violent extreme cold storm suddenly broke out.

This extremely cold storm stained the jade-like bones of the Bone King's body with a layer of white frost, and actually successfully froze it for 1 second!

This 1 second is extremely critical!

The ghost sword stabbed straight, and finally landed on the dark soul fire.

Phew~

The soul fire in the Bone King's right eye socket flickered for a moment, and finally went out.

Then all the bones in its body began to fall apart, scattered all over the place.

Seeing this, Jiang He did not dare to be careless. He could feel that the aura of the Bone King's remains had not dissipated.

What he had just defeated was only the first form. Next, it is very likely that the Bone King's remains will use super-level skills such as the Bone God's Body.

Enter the second form.

boom!

Sure enough, the flames in the eye sockets of the Bone King's remains burned again, even more powerful than before, and the jade-like bones once again pieced together the Bone King's body.

"Yes, you passed the test."

Bone King Remains said calmly.

"I...passed?"

Jiang He was a little unbelievable. He was ready to enter the second form.

Then Bone King Wreck said he passed?

"Thank you, senior!"

Jiang He cupped his fists and thanked him.

What he was grateful for was Bone King's Remains' previous feeding move. Bone King's Remains seemed to be intending to help him.

"You defeated me with your own strength. There is nothing to thank you for."

The skeleton of the Bone King thought Jiang He was thanking it for releasing the water.

"Senior, why didn't you just defeat me before?"

Jiang He couldn't hold back and asked the doubts in his heart.

"I'm in a good mood now, so let me talk to you! I can only leave this place if someone accepts the Bone King's inheritance."

"And your strength is indeed good, and you barely meet the minimum requirements for accepting inheritance."

The meaning of the existence of the Bone King's remains is to protect the Bone King's inheritance. Once a successor appears, it will be free.

Of course, as the guardian of inheritance, it cannot blatantly let go.

Jiang He is already the most suitable candidate.

I missed this one, and I don’t know how long it will take for the next one to come.

Of course, the next challenger will most likely be this guy.

"This is the undead bead that carries the inheritance of the Bone King, and it is also the key to opening this world of the undead. After you recognize it as its owner, you will know all about the inheritance. Okay, I'm leaving."

A grey-white, fist-sized bead appeared in the hand of the Bone King's remains. The material was very similar to the bones of the Bone King's remains, somewhat similar to jade, and was thrown to Jiang He.

It has now restored its immortal level strength and can enjoy its life.

"Senior Bone King, wait a minute! How do you identify the owner of this Death Spirit Pearl!"

Seeing the remains of the Bone King about to leave, Jiang He asked quickly.

I finally completed the trial, but in the end I felt embarrassed not knowing how to recognize my Lord.

"You can release your spiritual power or soul fire."

After saying that, the remains of the Bone King disappeared without a trace.

This is a skeleton as cool as the wind.

Jiang He quickly fed the "Dead Soul Pearl" a wave of spiritual power. He was not a real undead creature, so naturally he did not have soul fire.

With the influx of spiritual power, Jiang He felt that a wonderful connection had been established between himself and the Dead Soul Bead.

At the same time, the challengers who were in the trial area were all teleported out together...
