130: Skeleton Legion
Lin Feng's thoughts raced, and he instantly understood the reason for Riftwing Blade's previous teleportation failure.
Beneath this yellow sand, the area had long been completely permeated by this vast skeletal army and the death rules they controlled!
Here, spatial rules were suppressed and distorted by the power of death!
"Roar!!!"
As if receiving the same silent command, the skeletal army, which had just crawled out of the sand sea and was still adapting, suddenly moved!
There were no battle roars, no shouts, only a terrifying noise composed of the friction and collision of bones, enough to make one's heart tremble!
The closest to Lin Feng was a giant skeleton, three meters tall, holding a huge bone club, its empty eye sockets blazing with soul fire. It took a step forward, and the massive bone club, carrying a whistling gale of evil wind and immense power, smashed down towards Lin Feng's head!
The dense death qi Confinement around the bone club made the air emit a "sizzling" corrosive sound!
At the same time, a leopard-shaped skeletal creature, only half a person tall, on the flank, transformed into a pale white stream of light. Its speed was so fast that it only left afterimages on the sand, and its sharp bone claws went straight for Lin Feng's throat!
The death rules condensed on the tips of its claws were like the most lethal stingers!
"Scram!"
A cold light burst from Lin Feng's eyes; he didn't retreat but advanced!
Facing the earth-shattering blow from the giant skeleton, his right fist once again condensed with dark golden light. Without dodging or evading, he punched out!
Where the fist edge passed, the air was compressed into a solid white airwave!
Boom!!!
Fist and bone club collided violently!
The extremely muffled explosion shook the sand beneath them!
The seemingly indestructible huge bone club, at the moment of contact with Lin Feng's fist, cracked and shattered inch by inch, centered on the point of impact!
The violent force of the punch continued unabated, fiercely striking the giant skeleton's chest!
Crack crack crack!
Countless thick ribs snapped!
The massive skeletal body was sent flying backward as if struck by a battering ram, crashing onto the sand and kicking up a cloud of yellow dust!
And at the moment Lin Feng punched, his body had already twisted at an incredible angle!
His left hand, with fingers joined like a blade, extended a dark golden sharp edge from his fingertips. Quick as lightning, it jabbed at the leopard-shaped skeleton's bone claw!
Pfft!
The sharp rule power condensed at his fingertips, like a hot knife through butter, instantly pierced through the bone claw infused with death rules!
Its momentum undiminished, it fiercely struck the leopard-shaped skeleton's skull between the brows!
"Bang!"
With a soft sound, the skull, burning with eerie green soul fire, exploded!
Splintered bone and soul fire scattered!
The leopard-shaped skeleton instantly lost all power, collapsing to the ground with a clatter.
However, Lin Feng had no time to catch his breath; more attacks surged towards him like a tide!
Above his head, several bone-winged skeletal vultures swooped down, their sharp bone beaks and claws glinting with the cold light of death!
Beneath his feet, several lizard-like skeletal creatures burst out of the sand, opening their huge mouths filled with bone spikes to bite at his legs!
From all directions, skeletal warriors of various forms wielded bone knives, bone spears, and bone hammers, carrying a chilling aura of death, like a moving skeletal forest, heavily besieging him!
"Riftwing Blade! Clear the area!"
Lin Feng roared, his figure becoming a blurred afterimage amidst the dense attacks. Fists, palms, fingers, elbows, knees... every part of his body transformed into the most lethal weapons!
Every collision was accompanied by the explosive crackling of breaking bones!
Dark golden light flowed around him, as if he had donned an invincible battle armor, forcibly shaking off and dispelling the encroaching power of death rules!
At this moment, Lin Feng did not at all resemble a Summoner hiding behind his Spirit Beast, relying on his Spirit Beast to fight. Instead, he was more like a warrior!
Or rather, an assassin!
His attacks were precise and deadly!
Every move was extremely cunning, always finding the weak points in the bone skeletons' defenses!
His strength also did not seem like that of a Peak Silver; the rule power within him was even stronger than that of the Lie Kong Blade Wing Alien!
All of this was thanks to the Alien Queen, who had evolved again within the Spirit Beast Space!
Although she had not yet awakened, the soul contract between her and Lin Feng had once again led to an evolution in Lin Feng's life level.
The crystal core in his body became more condensed, and the dark golden little figure within it became a bit more agile.
Vigorous rule power continuously surged from the little figure, pouring into Lin Feng's limbs and bones, giving him a strength that even a Peak Silver could use to resist transcendent creatures!!
The Lie Kong Blade Wing Alien could no longer hold back!
The moment it received the command, it let out a space-rending shriek!
Its wings suddenly spread to their maximum extent!
Buzz!!!
Countless condensed silver spatial blades, like an enraged swarm of bees, shot out wildly in all directions, centered on it!
Although these spatial blades were suppressed by death rules and their power was somewhat weakened, they were still lethal against these individual skeletal foot soldiers whose individual strength was not top-tier!
Puff puff puff puff!
Dense slicing sounds merged into a cacophony of piercing noise!
The diving bone-winged vultures were cut into shattered bones in mid-air!
The skeletal lizards emerging from the sand were sliced into several segments!
The skeletal warriors charging at the front fell in swathes, like wheat being harvested!
Shattered white bones and viscous black liquid poured down onto the yellow sand like a torrential rain!
However, the number of skeletons was simply too great!
The burst from Riftwing Blade was like a huge hole blasted open in the surging tide of skeletons, but this hole only lasted for an instant before being instantly filled by an even denser, continuous stream of skeletal creatures surging from behind!
They stepped on the shattered bones of their companions, their empty eye sockets burning with cold soul fire, continuing their charge, unafraid of death!
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Lin Feng's eyes were as cold as ten thousand years of ice, with only the purest killing intent remaining in his heart!
He was like a tireless fighting machine, dashing left and right in the ocean of skeletons!
Every punch he threw shattered at least one, or even several, skeletons!
The continuous chaotic rule power from the dark golden little figure provided him with seemingly endless strength and recovery!
But the number of skeletons seemed endless! Beneath the yellow sand, new skeletons were still continuously crawling out!
The death rules on them connected into a single oppressive force, growing heavier and heavier, causing Lin Feng's movements to show a subtle, almost imperceptible sluggishness.
The spatial blades of Riftwing Blade also continued to decrease in power, and its efficiency in clearing the area became lower and lower.
Even more terrifying, behind the skeletal army, several exceptionally powerful auras began to emerge!
They did not rush to besiege, but rather, like cold hunters, patrolled the edges of the chaotic battlefield, exuding a terrifying pressure far beyond that of ordinary skeletons. One of them, astonishingly, carried an aura originating from the same source as the initial bone claw!
Clearly, the main body beneath the deep pit had not been annihilated!
Lin Feng's heart sank little by little.
If this continued, he would eventually be completely exhausted by this endless ocean of skeletons!
He had to find the key to breaking the stalemate!
Just as Lin Feng and Riftwing Blade were engaged in a bitter struggle, furiously besieged by the skeletal ocean... Boom boom boom!!!
In the center of the desert, the temple, constructed from dull gray giant stones and exuding an ancient, solidified aura, violently vibrated again without warning!
This vibration was far more intense than any previous one!
It was as if a fierce beast, imprisoned for eons, was madly crashing against its cage within the temple!
The seemingly massive stone structure of the temple groaned under the intense vibrations, unable to bear the strain, and countless fine cracks spread like a spiderweb across the surface of the dull gray giant stones!
An even denser, almost liquid, black death aura, like a bursting dam, furiously gushed out from the newly appeared cracks and from the gaps in the temple's main gate!
This aura was pure and overbearing to the extreme, carrying a primal will of death that lorded over all bones!
The moment this aura appeared, the entire boiling skeletal battlefield experienced a momentary pause!
All skeletal creatures that were frantically attacking Lin Feng and the Lie Kong Blade Wing Alien, regardless of their form, size, or strength, suddenly froze!
In their empty eye sockets, the burning soul fires flickered violently, as if subjected to an irresistible call and suppression originating from the depths of their bloodline!
They uniformly, as if pulled by invisible strings, turned towards the temple!
From those countless points of soul fire, a nearly instinctual... awe? Fear? Or perhaps... fanaticism? was revealed.
