"Really? It really worked?" the fat man said in disbelief.
Although the power of the energy lightsaber is not as great as that of the greatsword, it is still terrifying once it is unleashed at the seventh level. Especially when it accidentally pierces the Skeleton King's soul fire, this energy-based magical attack is enough to cause him great damage.
"Roar~~~" The Skeleton King let out a painful roar in the starry sky, wildly swinging his bone knife. The mech that had gone into overdrive couldn't dodge in time and was cut in half, its pieces scattered in the starry sky without a sound.
Of course, this doesn't mean he died. It's just that he fainted after the immense mental pressure subsided following the first time he unleashed his seventh-tier combat power.
Compared to the mech's massive size, the main control cabin is negligible in size. As long as the main control cabin is intact, the operator inside will be fine.
Another mech intervened and rescued the mech, handing it over to the wandering Roc to take it back to its territory to recuperate. At this moment, the Skeleton King was in the midst of painful madness and had no time to pay attention to them.
Of course, Alec and the others did not dare to attack rashly at this time. Although the Skeleton King was fighting without any rules, he was at his most dangerous and frenzied. There was no need to fight him to the death at this time. After the frenzy, he would soon fall into weakness. That would be the time for them to make their move.
Sure enough, the Skeleton King didn't last long. His frenzied struggle, like that of a trapped beast, quickly subsided, and his aura weakened. The eerie blue soul fire in his eye sockets swept around, and anyone could feel the rage within them.
Unfortunately, he was already very weak at this time. His soul fire had been severely damaged, just like a human falling from a lower realm. His strength was less than one-tenth of what it used to be. Not to mention that his crazy slashing had exhausted his strength. If Alec were still in good condition, he might have been able to fight him one-on-one.
However, it's not too late now. As the Skeleton King's madness gradually subsided, Alec charged towards it first, swinging his greatsword and sweeping it down.
The Skeleton King angrily tried to swing his sword to defend, but his reaction was much slower than before, and his soul fire was weakened, so the power he could exert was limited. He could only barely hold on for a moment before the greatsword swept across him, severing half of his body.
Although for an undead creature like it, the body is just a shell, and being cut off is nothing, as it can be repaired quickly, what the Skeleton King lacks most right now is time, and Alec and the others will not give him any more chances to recover.
Following Alec, the remaining mechs also rushed forward and launched an attack on the Skeleton King. Although their energy lightsabers were no match for the Skeleton King, they could still cut through some of the less sturdy bones in his body.
Several mechs then targeted these joints. The Skeleton King tried his best to resist, but losing half of his body made movement difficult. Soon, both arms were severed, and he completely lost the ability to fight back.
Seeing this, the soul fire within the Skeleton King's head burned wildly, and a sense of fear ignited in everyone's hearts, as if something terrifying lay ahead, causing them to hesitate and dare not move forward.
"Die!" A roar rang in everyone's earpieces, and a huge sword pierced through the back of the Skeleton King's head, penetrating the soul fire in the skull and splitting the entire skull and soul fire in two with a single strike.
"Fortunately, the Skeleton King's soul attack ability wasn't very strong. After unleashing his seventh-tier strength, only Alec could barely withstand it!" Seeing that the Skeleton King was finally killed, Ye Chen nodded in satisfaction and said.
Nine mechs, nine sixth-level pilots, and they finally succeeded in killing a god. If this were to get out, it would probably cause quite a stir.
After all, the seventh rank has always been a hurdle. No sixth-rank creature has ever been able to threaten a seventh-rank life. Even if it can only restrain it, it is already shocking enough.
"Remember to reassure these newcomers, make them sign contracts, and absolutely forbid this matter from getting out!" Ye Chen said to the fat man beside him.
Hearing his words, the fat man, who was also excited, gradually calmed down and nodded silently, "I understand, I'll go take care of it!"
Soon, all the newcomers received a notification from the fat man, and each of them was supervised by their respective clans to make an oath. In this world with gods and rules, the restrictions on oaths are very high, so at least in the short term, they don't have to worry about the possibility of the news being leaked.
"Let them make their move, it's almost over!" Ye Chen instructed as the Skeleton King vanished.
Ye Xi nodded, and soon the new lords who had just made their oaths saw a large number of their kin rushing out from the Primordial Star once again.
Unlike the previous fire crows and witch warriors, this group of followers is much more powerful. A single firebird is enough to burn a large area of the star field and turn countless undead creatures into ashes.
"Wow! So powerful!" Lin Zheping exclaimed in shock as he looked at the starry sky. Only now did he truly witness Ye Chen's strength. The number of fifth-tier kin who rushed out from the Primordial Star alone was no less than a million. Those witch warriors who looked similar to those before were obviously much stronger.
If the previous Wu Clan warriors were new recruits, then this batch is the true backbone, the main force of the army. All of them are at least at the fifth rank, a strength that Ye Chen has accumulated over a hundred years. Moreover, there are already 100,000 Wu Clan warriors at the sixth rank or above, making them incredibly powerful.
This was only the Witch Clan; the same was true for other races. When the real powerhouse appeared, everyone finally understood that what the fat man had said before was true—this was truly just a trial that Ye Chen had given them.
"Chirp~~~" "Roar~~~"
When the true dragon was born and the auspicious phoenix descended, some people even exclaimed in surprise. This was a creature they had never seen before, yet they could truly feel the powerful aura emanating from it, which was in no way weaker than the witch warriors who had come out before, and was even more powerful.
Indeed, this is true. In the ancient legends, the Dragon-Han Calamity preceded the Lich-Yao Calamity. The dragon, phoenix, and qilin were the main characters of the world at that time, but unfortunately, they were eventually lost in the long river of history.
As Ye Chen's Primordial Star began to exert its power, the surrounding dark creatures were quickly purged. He was no longer the same person he was in the Maya Plane. The century-long development of the Time Cave had allowed his territory to expand rapidly. Now, as long as he did not face a large number of seventh or even eighth-order enemies, he could guard a star field by himself, and had become a pivotal figure in the planar war.
