Chapter 545: A brand new level, with unknown and mysterious circumstances.
The Five-Colored Tiger has reappeared in the Divine Stone dungeon, marking its second appearance this year, a truly rare sight in history.
Whenever the five-colored tiger appears, it signifies that the practitioner's skill has reached an extremely high level. Before this year, only Chu Yao was able to make it appear briefly, but she was ultimately defeated instantly.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Jiang Chen, eager to see what kind of performance he would deliver.
"I think Jiang Shenjiang will definitely be able to hold out for a long time this time."
“Not only can he hold out for a long time, I even think he can turn the tables and kill this five-colored tiger.”
"A counter-kill? No one in history has ever done that." "Just because others can't do it doesn't mean Jiang Shenjiang can't. Don't forget how many miracles Jiang Shenjiang has already created."
The audience had great confidence in Jiang Chen; in their hearts, he was already synonymous with miracles.
Looking at Jiang Chen in the picture, Feng An smiled and said to Li Xueru, "Old Li, you and Old Hong have never seen a five-colored tiger before, have you?"
Li Xueru nodded, "Indeed, we were just a little short back then. Old Hong was in the same boat."
Feng An laughed and said, "It seems that your disciple is indeed more outstanding than you."
Hong Jishi said loudly and proudly, "Of course, look who your apprentice is."
Li Xueru chuckled softly, his eyes also gleaming with pride. They knew that their era had passed, and now it belonged to Jiang Chen.
The moment Ye Chenshi saw the five-colored tiger appear, his expression became complex, containing both murderous intent and admiration.
As a member of the human race, whatever conflicts he may have with Jiang Chen, that would not change. At this moment, his heart was filled with complex emotions that were difficult to express in words.
The moment the five-colored tiger appeared, it exuded an astonishing aura. Its entire body was enveloped in multicolored light, forming an impenetrable defensive layer. At the same time, this multicolored light also contained terrifying offensive power, cutting through the air like sharp swords. This was undoubtedly a typical characteristic of a world boss—a perfect blend of offense and defense, making it extremely difficult to deal with.
Although the Five-Colored Fierce Tiger was several levels higher than Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen didn't take it seriously. He knew his own strength and respected this world boss.
Therefore, the moment the five-colored tiger made its move, he summoned two undead legions without hesitation, which pounced on it like wolves and tigers.
Two undead legions were more than enough force for the five-colored tiger before him. In Jiang Chen's eyes, apart from its slightly enormous size, the five-colored tiger was indeed not worthy of his attention. He knew that size did not entirely represent strength. When the five-colored tiger swung its massive claws and fiercely struck Jiang Chen, the entire instance trembled, and the hearts of the spectators pounded with tension.
However, the moment the claw landed, Jiang Chen's skeletal armor emitted a dazzling light, easily blocking the fierce attack of the five-colored tiger.
"As expected, it's still too weak. It can't even break through my skeleton armor." Jiang Chen's eyes flashed with disdain as he commented indifferently.
The five-colored tiger seemed shocked by this result, unable to understand why its powerful attacks could not cause any damage to the enemy in front of it.
Immediately afterward, Jiang Chen's elemental power roared, and a large amount of elemental energy exploded on the Five-Colored Tiger. The Five-Colored Tiger was blasted and was covered in wounds, looking extremely disheveled.
A sharp arrow ripped through the dungeon sky, instantly striking the five-colored tiger with a fierce lightning bolt, turning it into a hedgehog. The skeleton berserkers seized the opportunity to fly to the tiger's side, unleashing powerful skills from their axes.
In the blink of an eye, the five-colored tiger was severely injured and collapsed to the ground, letting out an angry roar. The five-colored light on its body exploded again, and the injuries it had just suffered were healed in an instant, and the aura of its entire body also rose rapidly.
At the same time, a mysterious power surged forth from within the instance, continuously flowing into the Five-Colored Tiger's body. Under the influence of this power, the Five-Colored Tiger's level began to rise rapidly, becoming significantly stronger than before.
Jiang Chen sensed the changes in the five-colored tiger and a smile appeared on his lips. "This is getting interesting," he said softly.
In Jiang Chen's perception, the Five-Colored Tiger had now reached the peak of level 69, its strength almost surpassing that of the "Ancient Luan Bird" he had encountered before. Although it had become much stronger, it was still not enough in Jiang Chen's eyes.
So he summoned two more legions of the undead, determined to give the multicolored tiger the respect it deserved. The multicolored tiger let out a deafening roar, opened its massive jaws, and spewed forth a dazzling array of multicolored light. This light was composed of the four elements of wind, water, fire, and electricity, creating a mesmerizing spectacle that shone upon the skeletons.
Under the illumination of the multicolored light, the skeletons slowed down noticeably and suffered considerable damage. However, Jiang Chen did not panic. Instead, he calmly commented, "It has a slowing effect and considerable attack power. It is indeed a good skill."
With a muffled thud, the skeletal armor shattered instantly under the illumination of the multicolored light, scattering into countless fragments. Jiang Chen showed no panic; he quickly re-enhanced himself with a skeletal armor, while flames leaped in his palm.
Skill: Soul Burn!
At Jiang Chen's command, a burst of intense heat swiftly descended upon the five-colored tiger. However, the five-colored tiger seemed unaffected, continuing its slow and heavy approach towards Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen frowned, thinking to himself, "It seems that this five-colored tiger is not the real BOSS, but more like a puppet."
He realized that perhaps his previous judgment was wrong, and that the five-colored tiger's strength had not reached the level he had expected.
“If your combat power ends here, then there’s no need to continue fighting.” Jiang Chen’s heart stirred, and he decided to use the curse skill he hadn’t used before. With his command, the curse skill was quickly activated, and at the same time, the undead legion launched a fierce attack.
Jiang Chen had refrained from using his curse skill earlier, intending to test the true strength of this five-colored tiger. However, its performance now seemed somewhat disappointing. While the five-colored tiger possessed some characteristics of a world boss, its strength fell far short of Jiang Chen's expectations.
After the curse skill was activated, the damage received by the Five-Colored Tiger increased nearly tenfold. Its originally sturdy defenses became extremely fragile under the curse, and the siege by the undead legion made it even more exhausted.
Under the relentless assault of the undead legion, the Five-Colored Tiger lasted less than a minute. It let out a final roar before dying, its entire body bursting forth with dazzling light, illuminating the entire instance.
Jiang Chen was so blinded by the multicolored light that he couldn't open his eyes, only able to feel the intense light and the vibrations emanating from his surroundings. Meanwhile, the onlookers outside gasped in unison, for the projected image had suddenly vanished.
"what happened?"
"Where did the image go?"
"Could it be that Jiang Shenjiang killed the Five-Colored Tiger?"
"I don't know, the screen just suddenly disappeared while we were playing."
The audience buzzed with discussion, while Li Xueru, his face grim, tried to restore the projected image. However, no matter how many hand seals and runes he cast, he couldn't reconnect to the image within the instance.
Hong Jishi asked anxiously, "Old Li, what exactly happened?" Li Xueru shook his head and said, "It should be some kind of mechanism of the dungeon that was triggered. We have never encountered this situation before, so we can only guess that it may be some special effect triggered after Jiang Chen killed the Five-Colored Tiger."
Hong Jishi nodded and said, "Could it be that Xiao Chen really killed the Five-Colored Tiger?"
After pondering for a moment, Li Xueru said, "Very likely. With Xiao Chen's strength, killing this five-colored tiger wouldn't be difficult. It's just that we don't know what will happen next."
"Nobody knows what will happen next," Li Xueru sighed. "We can only wait and see."
At this point, there was truly no other way but to wait. Everyone could only anxiously await changes in the situation within the instance.
After all, no one has ever dared to try what Jiang Chen did, and no one has ever succeeded.
Just as no one can challenge and defeat a world boss alone, only Jiang Chen could achieve such a feat.
...
Inside the instance, the light gradually faded, revealing a completely new world.
The scene before Jiang Chen was completely transformed: rolling hills, meandering rivers, small bridges, flowing water, and houses—it was as if he had stepped into a forgotten fairyland.
The place is filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, and the scenery is picturesque, giving people a sense of tranquility and beauty.
However, amidst this tranquility, Jiang Chen noticed a path beneath his feet, at the end of which a simple, ancient pavilion was faintly visible.
Along the path stand lifelike statues, numbering in the hundreds.
The statues, wielding various weapons and with cold, piercing gazes, seemed to be fixed intently on Jiang Chen, adding a touch of grimness to this beautiful space. "It seems there are even deeper challenges awaiting me; the ninth level is not the end." Jiang Chen's heart stirred, and he immediately ordered the undead legion to swoop down from the sky, preparing for battle.
Jiang Chen was not afraid at all and resolutely walked forward.
The moment he took his first step, the two statues closest to him suddenly came to life.
The two statues transformed into two warriors, wielding stone swords, and unhesitatingly unleashed fierce sword energy at Jiang Chen.
The sword energy, tens of meters long, tore through the space, instantly blasting away a large number of skeletons, and finally slammed into Jiang Chen's skeleton armor.
Although the sword energy weakened after hitting the skull, its power remained immense.
This sword strike not only shattered Jiang Chen's skeletal armor but also forced him back several steps.
Jiang Chen could sense that this sword energy not only had amazing attack power, but also contained a strong knockback effect.
"Their strength is indeed formidable!" Jiang Chen thought to himself. Based on just this one sword strike, he judged that the two statue warriors' combat power should be around level 75.
Level 75 is a significant turning point, signifying that professionals are entering a completely new phase where their attributes and strength will be greatly enhanced.
Some highly perceptive professionals can even grasp the true essence of their skills at this stage, greatly enhancing their power.
However, these rules did not seem to apply to Jiang Chen. His very existence was beyond reason, and his power and wisdom far exceeded the imagination of ordinary people.
Faced with the statue warriors' attack, Jiang Chen did not back down, but quickly adjusted his state and commanded the undead legion to launch a counterattack.
In an instant, the dungeon was engulfed in flames and filled with the smoke of battle.
