259: Black Crystal Guardian, Light of the Spirit Forest

After the light dissipated, massive Black Crystal Guardian stood in neat order before Yang Qianhun and the others.

Their eyes were deep, emitting a faint, eerie black light.

[Identity: Exotic Beast]

[Name: Black Crystal Guardian]

[Level: Twenty-six]

[Qualification: Advanced Grade]

[Attribute: Crystal]

[Status: Slaughter]

[Skills: Black Light Ray (Advanced Grade), Black Blade Slash (Rare)]

[Weakness: Spatial Power]

Black Crystal Guardian are mysterious creatures, their bodies composed of a Rare mineral called 'Black Crystal'.

This mineral emits a deep black light, as if it can absorb surrounding light.

The Black Crystal Guardian' limbs and torso have a streamlined design, with smooth lines full of power.

Their heads are more unique, with pitch-black eyes that seem naturally formed.

The Black Crystal Guardian' exterior is smooth and hard, almost impenetrable by opponents of the same level.

Each of their hands has three sharp black crystal claws, capable of easily tearing through enemy defenses.

Each Black Crystal Guard was three meters tall, and there were a full three hundred thousand of them, a dense, ink-black mass stretching as far as the eye could see.

"It's a good thing they're only Level Twenty-six, otherwise, there would be a full two hundred thousand of them! Even if we were just gnawing on steamed buns, it would take half a day."

Yang Qianhun gazed at the two hundred thousand Black Crystal Guardian in the distance and said calmly.

With a thought, Yang Qianhun teleported out 7,500 Skeleton Generals from his Lord Space.

Lights flashed in rapid succession before them, and 7,500 Skeleton Generals, holding long spears, appeared in front of Yang Qianhun.

They stood in perfect formation, their eyes flickering with ghostly fire.

"Go, slaughter them."

Yang Qianhun's Golden Scale Sacred Sword had already appeared in his hand, and he swung it forward, saying in a deep voice.

The 7,500 Skeleton Generals charged forward as vanguards, aiming to attract the Black Crystal Guardian' aggro to the maximum extent.

"As you command."

Xu Huang and Zhang Liao responded, holding their weapons and leading all the Soldiers into the charge.

The eyes of the tens of thousands of Black Crystal Guardian at the very front flared with light, and black rays shot out from their pitch-black eyes.

They swept directly towards the closest Skeleton Generals.

The 7,500 Skeleton Generals held their skeleton spears horizontally in front of them, continuously blocking the attacks of the black rays.

The Spiritual Master Level Skeleton Generals were still struggling somewhat against the Level Twenty-six Black Crystal Guardian, and there were a full two hundred thousand Black Crystal Guardian on the other side.

Level Twenty-six Black Crystal Guardian are equivalent to Spirit Master Sixth Order.

To inflict effective damage on the Black Crystal Guardian, only Spirit General Rank Magic Wolf Knights, along with Spirit Master Tenth Order Shadow Guards, Strong Archers, and Double Halberd Guards, could do so.

Although the Death Warriors were numerous, they were only Spirit Practitioner Tenth Order, at most capable of attrition through sheer numbers.

In this battle, the losses of the Death Warriors would likely be unimaginable.

A moment later, the 7,500 Skeleton Generals could no longer hold out; their skeleton spears were directly struck flying by countless black rays.

One by one, the Skeleton Generals were directly hit by the black rays head-on, and several hundred Skeleton Generals were struck by multiple black rays, instantly pierced through and disappearing as black light spots.

At the same time, twenty thousand Strong Archers took action, simultaneously drawing their bows and releasing their strongest Spirit Skill: Piercing Arrow.

Twenty thousand purple Spirit Arrows, over a meter long, condensed and shot out like javelins, covering the sky and raining down upon the Black Crystal Guardian.

Puff, puff, puff, puff, puff...

The purple Spirit Arrows directly pierced through one Black Crystal Guard after another, continuing to shoot towards the beast crystal guards behind them.

However, due to the Black Crystal Guardian' ridiculously high defense, even the purple Spirit Arrows, which had extremely strong penetration.

After piercing one Black Crystal Guard, they could only penetrate one more Black Crystal Guard before becoming completely ineffective.

But two hundred thousand Strong Archers simultaneously releasing Piercing Arrow still packed a considerable punch.

Over twenty thousand Black Crystal Guardian were directly pierced through and died by the purple Spirit Arrows, turning into black light spots and disappearing.

Yang Qianhun, holding the Golden Scale Sacred Sword, charged to the very front, circulating the Spirit Forest Undying Art within his body.

Suddenly, he raised his voice sharply and uttered four words: "Ling Sen Light!"

Instantly, a powerful green light erupted from his entire body, shooting straight into the sky.

This green light was like a giant beam, illuminating the entire battlefield.

This light did not dissipate but transformed into countless green light spots that fell upon the surrounding Soldiers.

These Soldiers' bodies were immediately enveloped in a layer of green light; their bodies became harder, as if they had donned an indestructible armor.

This was the Epic-grade Spirit Skill—Ling Sen Light.

It could add defensive effects to himself and the surrounding Soldiers, making them more resilient in battle.

It could also automatically heal their wounds when they took damage.

The effect lasted for thirty minutes.

This could minimize the number of casualties among the Soldiers, and it was also a full-party support-type Spirit Skill that Yang Qianhun had comprehended.

"Since you're so tough, then let you taste my Spirit Skill: Prairie Fire Hundred Slashes."

Yang Qianhun directly circulated the Flame Emperor Sky Burning Art, and spiritual power surged out, forming scorching flames that enveloped his body.

The next second, all the flames on Yang Qianhun's body gathered onto the Golden Scale Sacred Sword.

As he raised it high, a pillar of fire shot up from the sword, as if it would melt everything around it.

"Turn to ashes."

Yang Qianhun bent down and directly slashed towards the charging Black Crystal Guardian.

The pillar of fire on the sword instantly split into twenty streams, like twenty giant flame snakes, winding forward and rushing towards the Black Crystal Guardian.

Leaving behind twenty paths of flames, burning fiercely.

Bang...

The twenty snake-shaped flames instantly devoured the Black Crystal Guardian blocking their path, leaving no bones behind.

Although the snake-shaped flames' power was greatly reduced, they still mercilessly ravaged the battlefield, frantically attacking the Black Crystal Guardian.

Until the snake-shaped flames disappeared, tens of thousands of Black Crystal Guardian were completely consumed by the flames.

But the Black Crystal Guardian were numerous, still continuously surrounding Yang Qianhun.

"This is endless. Ten Directions Blazing Flames Formation."

Yang Qianhun coldly scanned his surroundings and calmly said, facing the Black Crystal Guardian who were once again surrounding him.

Then, he continued to circulate the Flame Emperor Sky Burning Art, and flames erupted from his entire body as he stomped his right foot forward.

The ground seemed to crack open, and fine flame fissures, like lines, appeared.

They spread out in a net-like pattern in all directions.

The Black Crystal Guardian looked on indifferently at the intense Hot Wind.

They continued to charge towards Yang Qianhun, completely disregarding the steadily rising temperature.

The surrounding temperature gradually became scorching, as if they were in a furnace.

The surrounding Black Crystal Guardian continuously charged towards Yang Qianhun.

The next second.

Boom, boom, boom...

Immediately after, pillars of fire, a hundred times larger than manhole covers, erupted from beneath the Black Crystal Guardian' feet, instantly engulfing their figures in flames.
