Chapter 154 Keep the news under wraps; Lin Zhenzi mustn't know.
Thanks to Lin Cai'er's superb acting skills, the Shadow Demon was fooled and died.
With the death of the leader, the Shadow Demon, the rest of the Abyss Demons were plunged into despair.
They were defeated one after another amidst their mournful cries.
The skeleton warriors gave them no chance to breathe, unleashing their berserk power and chopping them all into mincemeat.
The sergeant's badge flashed continuously, and his military merits kept increasing.
In this battle, Jiang Chen and Lin Cai'er each gained 1200 military merit points.
Among them, the Shadow Fiend had the highest military merit, worth 1000 points, with each person receiving 500 points.
The other 14 demons are all below level 40.
Each demon provides 100 military merits, which are split equally between the two, with each person receiving 50 points.
Jiang Chen's military merits exceeded 3000 points again, while Lin Cai'er's military merits reached 1800 points.
In addition, they obtained a demon crystal.
This was also one of the tasks assigned by Hong Ki-seok.
They came here to destroy the abyss demons and obtain the demon crystals.
Hong Jishi seemed to have anticipated that Jiang Chen would face demons of level 40 or higher, so he gave him this task in advance.
Lin Cai'er suggested with a smile, "We can do this in the future: I'll pretend to be very scared to lure them down, and then we'll kill them together, so they won't be able to escape."
This method is indeed feasible, but it is not a panacea.
Jiang Chen added, "The only problem is if we encounter a demon with ranged attack capabilities. There are many types of demons, some of which have ranged attack capabilities. If we encounter such a demon, it will hide in the air and release its skills, making it difficult to deal with. Demons are not beasts; they have intelligence. If they cannot win the battle, they will run away."
Lin Cai'er nodded, indicating her understanding.
Jiang Chen added, "Hopefully, when we reach level 30, we will be able to learn some corresponding skills, which may improve the situation."
His experience level is approaching 27, and he's not far from leveling up.
Once he reaches level 30, he can use a beginner skill scroll to learn new skills.
This might help their efficiency.
In Hong Shen Courtyard at Shenlong University, Li Xueru stared at Hong Jishi in disbelief.
Li Xueru usually appears very composed, but this was a rare sight for him.
He asked, puzzled, "Are you crazy?"
Hong Jishi chuckled and said, "I'm not crazy. I just want to see where this kid's limit is. The Tyrant Desert, a large-scale dungeon, is no challenge for him. On the contrary, it has earned him a lot of points. He can complete the Dragon Clan Frontline Outpost dungeon, which is of Hell difficulty, on his own. Tens of thousands of Hellhounds are not a problem for him either. I guess this Elemental Secret Realm will not be difficult for him either."
Li Xueru frowned and said, "This is different. The difficulty of the Elemental Secret Realm is much higher than those dungeons. The Elemental Queen's attributes are comparable to a level 40 high-level demon, and her skills are very powerful. You should also know that although Jiang Chen has many skeletons, the Elemental Queen is almost immune to group attacks."
Hong Jishi smiled and added, "I understand the power of the Elemental Queen, but I have full confidence in Jiang Chen. Let's wait and see." Hong Jishi was not worried at all: "If we can't beat him, we can still run away, right? It's good to suffer a loss once in a while. At least we'll know where this kid's limit is."
"If I don't make him suffer a little, wouldn't I look useless?"
"Even if we die, it doesn't matter. With the Hall of Heroes' mark on us, we won't really die."
"And it's not just the Elemental Secret Realm. I also sent him to Battlefield No. 3, the Abyss Border to kill demons, and the Abyss Outpost dungeon there. I had him do all of that too."
Li Xueru stared at Hong Jishi, noticing his nonchalant expression.
He suddenly laughed: "Have you forgotten something?"
"what's up?"
Hong Jishi didn't feel like he had forgotten anything.
"Old Lin's granddaughter is with Jiang Chen, and she didn't leave a mark on the Hall of Heroes. If she dies..." "Old Lin will probably fight you to the death!"
Snapped!
Hong Jishi slapped his thigh suddenly: "Oh no, I forgot about this."
"What should we do then? I'll go find them and bring them back."
Seeing Hong Jishi lose his composure, Li Xueru laughed even more heartily: "Now you know fear? But it should be alright. Although Cai'er didn't leave a mark on the Hall of Heroes, Old Man Lin should have placed a soul-protecting spell on her."
Upon hearing the words "Soul-Protecting Incantation," Hong Jishi finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Why didn't you say so sooner?"
"I'm just telling you to be more careful and thorough next time you do something."
Li Xueru spoke softly, then closed his eyes again.
Hong Jishi completely relaxed at this point and picked up his teacup: "Then everything should be fine. Even if we encounter a high-level demon at the edge of the abyss, we can just die and come back."
"What did you say about coming back from the dead?"
A voice suddenly rang out, and Lin Zhenzi walked in, plopped down, and said, "What did you say? Come back here to die?"
Hong Jishi quickly shook his head: "It's nothing, you must have misheard."
This matter cannot be discussed; it absolutely cannot be told to Old Man Lin.
Otherwise, he would most likely lose his little courtyard.
Lin Zhenzi asked, "Where did you send that brat on his mission?"
The question was directed at Jiang Chen, but what Lin Zhenzi really wanted to know was where Lin Cai'er had gone.
Hong Jishi said, "He went to the Otherworld Battlefield. Don't worry, with Jiang Chen around, your precious granddaughter will be fine. Besides, you've also been given a Soul Protection Spell, so you won't die."
Lin Zhenzi snorted coldly: "If anything happens to my granddaughter, I'll hold you accountable first." Hong Jishi smiled ingratiatingly: "Don't worry, don't worry, nothing will happen."
He dared not tell Lin Zhenzi the true whereabouts of Jiang Chen and Lin Cai'er.
Li Xueru closed his eyes to rest, his lips twitching slightly as he struggled to suppress a laugh.
Battlefield No. 3, the edge of the abyss.
The mist suddenly dissipated, revealing a black portal.
Behind the door, pairs of scarlet eyes peeked out.
The abyssal energy entered Battlefield No. 3 without any hindrance.
Abyssal energy scattered across Battlefield No. 3, and abyssal man-eating monsters immediately appeared on the battlefield.
In the blink of an eye, thousands of man-eating monsters appeared in every corner of Battlefield Number Three.
The crimson-eyed master burst forth from the black portal, and demons descended one after another. In the blink of an eye, a full twenty demons appeared on Battlefield Number Three.
"Hahahaha, the human world, this demon has arrived!"
"The legendary, delicious human flesh, I, the demon, have come to taste it!"
"Humans, wash your necks and wait!"
The demons let out a shrill, deafening laugh.
A massive barrage of magical attacks rained down, overwhelming them.
The abyssal demons were stunned and roared in anger.
"who!"
"Which bastard dares to ambush me?!"
"Ouch! That hurts! I'm going to kill you!"
"You are dead!"
With a hum, a red light descended.
Red shackles appeared above the heads of all the demons.
The roar stopped abruptly.
The skeleton warrior followed, leaping high into the air and landing on the demon.
They grabbed the demons with all their might, preventing them from escaping.
Once ensnared by the curse, these demons had no chance of escape.
The skeleton warrior's greatsword struck him, sending flesh flying and causing him to scream in agony.
Wings were severed, hands and feet were severed, and demon blood gushed out like a fountain.
The black earth of the alien battlefield has become even deeper.
At this moment, the corpses of several Abyss Devourers were thrown over, landing on the heads of the Abyss Demons.
boom! boom! boom!
Skill: Corpse Explosion!
Jiang Chen detonated the corpse of the Abyss Devouring Monster in mid-air.
Although the Abyss Devourer's level and stats are inferior to the Abyss Demon, its vitality is not weak. The Corpse Explosion skill amplifies the damage by 30 times, and the Abyss Devourer attacks with 600% of its vitality.
One time is fine; these demons might be able to hold out.
However, after several consecutive explosive attacks, even the abyss demon could not withstand them.

[Obtain Demon Blood Essence]
[Slaying a level 37 Abyss Serpent Demon: Experience +370000, Military Merit +50]
[Obtain Demon Blood Essence]
After the explosion, the group of Abyss Demons who had just entered Battlefield No. 3 were all dead.
They didn't even have a chance to take off and escape; they died at almost the fastest pace in history.
Who told them to be so unlucky as to appear right in front of Jiang Chen? After instantly killing 20 Abyss Demons, Jiang Chen and Lin Cai'er each gained 1000 military merits.
"This is the spatial passage between the Abyss and the human race."
Lin Cai'er looked at the spatial passage dozens of meters away with curiosity.
The dark portal, about ten meters high, flickered with an extremely dark light, and occasionally lightning would flash across it.
The space around the portal distorted, undulating like waves.
This was also the first time Jiang Chen had ever seen a spatial passage in person.
The world of the abyss and the world of humans collided and came into contact.
In addition to specific passages, temporary passages may occasionally arise naturally.
These temporary channels are mostly short-lived, lasting only a few minutes or even less.
Furthermore, the passage was fragile, only able to accommodate demons of relatively low power. Jiang Chen and Lin Cai'er were equally curious about the spatial passage, behind which lay the Abyss World.
The energy of the abyss is continuously flowing into the alien battlefield through the spatial passage, transforming into countless man-eating abyssal monsters.
"Oh no, another demon is about to emerge."
Pairs of scarlet eyes appeared again in the spatial passage.
Jiang Chen's heart stirred, and the skeleton warrior immediately threw a demon corpse into the spatial passage.
The moment the corpse entered the spatial passage, Jiang Chen activated his skill.
With a loud bang, the entire space passage shook violently.

Great harvest!
