Chapter 169: Grave of Gods!_1
[The Heavenly Path's Hint: Warning, warning! You are about to enter the Divine Domain where death protection no longer exists. If you can pass through this area, you will receive a "God-Grade Halo" reward! Do you wish to proceed?]
Chen Mo was about to enter the 41st level when he suddenly received a notice from the Heavenly Path.
A balanced dungeon up to Level 10; even if it involves a god-grade BOSS, it can't possibly be too outrageous! I've grown this strong already; there's no reason to back down. Even if I can't beat it, I can rely on Divine Flicker combined with the Space-Time Pearl to escape danger and leave the dungeon.
Chen Mo thought for a moment, found no problem, and chose to continue the challenge!
[The Heavenly Path's Hint: You have entered the Divine Domain. All monsters' health is increased 1,000 times, and their attack and defense are increased 100 times! The general BUFFs monsters in this area receive have all been upgraded to god-grade BUFFs.]
[The Heavenly Path's Hint: Current Underworld City-wide BUFFs are "God-Grade Invisibility" and "God-Grade Endurance"!]
God-Grade Invisibility: All monsters enter a permanent invisible mode. They have no collision volume when invisible and will not reveal themselves in combat.
God-Grade Endurance: Every time a professional enters a new level, all monsters on that level increase all attributes by 10% for each minute they survive.
Disgusting!
Looking at the god-grade BUFFs made Chen Mo feel sick.
If my own Skeleton Monsters had this invisibility ability, I could simply stack 340,000 of them together and continuously strike the BOSS. But God-Grade Invisibility is manageable. God-Grade Endurance, however, is the real nightmare. An increase of 10% in all attributes per minute means that if this prolonged battle continues, the opponent will become invincible.
With this annoying BUFF present, Chen Mo naturally didn't dare to delay and immediately started searching for the entrance to the next level.
「Meanwhile, outside the dungeon.」
Many people watched Chen Mo linger on the 40th level for an extended time, curious about what was delaying him. No one doubted his ability to pass; they were just curious why he was taking so much time. His actions were truly baffling. When Chen Mo finally descended to the 41st level, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, after the 30th level, no one knew what lay ahead. They were all guessing based on the BOSS of the 30th level. They could never have imagined that the Divine Domain awaited them.
After descending to the 41st level, Chen Mo was surprised to find no elite guards blocking his path; instead, the entrance to the next level was open. He swiftly entered the next level, only to find the same situation. In this manner, he breezed through levels unopposed until he arrived at the 45th level.
As he ascended the stairs to the 45th level, Chen Mo suddenly noticed the environment was vastly different. The entire 45th level was desolate, filled with ruins, deadwood, and tombstones. An uncomfortable aura of death seemed to pervade the world, spreading relentlessly.
Is this the Divine Domain?
Just as Chen Mo was wondering, a flash of light appeared before him, and a palm-sized elf emerged.
"Human, this is the Cemetery of the Gods. You cannot come in here. Please leave immediately."
"What if I don't leave?" Chen Mo asked curiously upon hearing the elf's warning.
"The Guardian of the God's Grave will quickly come once it catches a human's scent. It will kill anyone who approaches the Grave of Gods. You still have time to leave."
"Can you share its attributes with me?"
Chen Mo's question was casual, but surprisingly, the elf nodded and shared the information with him.
[Monster Name]: Guardian of the God's Grave
[Monster Rank]: God-grade BOSS
[Level]: 20
[Attributes]:
Life: 2,000 trillion / 2,000 trillion
Energy: 2 trillion / 2 trillion
Physical Attack: 2,000,000
Magic Attack: 2,000,000
Physical Defense: 3,000,000
Magic Defense: 3,000,000
[Active Skills]: Grave Guardian Divine Skill (Thirty-six Types), Divine Graveyard Domain (Gains power buffs equivalent to the combined strength of all deceased gods within the graveyard's range)
[Passive Skills]: Death Aura, Domain Aura
Death Aura: Within a 1,000-meter range, no unit can be resurrected after death.
Domain Aura: All teleportation effects are ineffective within the domain's range.
[Divinity]: Divine Body, Unwinding Divine Heart
Divine Body: Immune to all damage except true damage!
Unwinding Divine Heart: Not affected by any abnormal effects!
The Guardian of the God's Grave's attributes were rather simple and could be seen at a glance. However, its strength was particularly astonishing.
Not even considering its thirty-six Grave Guardian Divine Skills, the Divine Graveyard Domain skill alone is outrageous. Gaining power buffs equivalent to the combined strength of all deceased gods within the graveyard's range—this is truly an aberration! A quick scan of the graveyard reveals at least a hundred tombstones. How terrifying would it be to have the power of all these gods added to its own strength?
Fortunately, the opponent doesn't have many abilities. Using the Godslayer Challenger title, I can seal one of its divinities. Then, using The God of Bravery title, I can seal its passive skill, the Divine Graveyard Domain, and its remaining divinity. After that, I just have to fight it out. Despite its alarming thirty-six attack skills, it isn't a problem. After all, I can now summon 340,000 Skeleton Monsters at once. To kill the guardian, it would have to overcome all my Skeleton Monsters first. And with my cooldown reduced by 99%, my Skeleton Summoning skill has virtually no cooldown.
At this moment, he felt invincible! There was simply no fear in him.
"Human, you should leave quickly," the elf continued to advise Chen Mo after showing him the attributes.
"Thank you for the warning, but don't worry. I can handle it."
"What!?"
The elf was preparing to advise further, but then suddenly, as if sensing something, she turned her head and said, "Oh no, he's coming. You won't be able to leave now."
At this point, Chen Mo had already received a notification that he was affected by the Domain Aura. However, he tested it by using Divine Flicker. There was no problem at all. Although Divine Flicker was a form of teleportation, it was completely unaffected by the Domain Aura.
The moment they met, Chen Mo immediately applied a fourfold seal to the opponent. The opponent's two divinities, its Death Aura passive skill, and its Divine Graveyard Domain active skill were all completely sealed by Chen Mo, significantly reducing its offensive and defensive abilities.
Simultaneously, with a wave of his magic wand, Chen Mo summoned 340,000 Skeleton Monsters beside him, all in invisible mode and stacked together. He immediately cast Undying Worship and Berserker Shield on them. Fortunately, both skills now had an area of effect. Otherwise, if they still affected individual units as before, it wouldn't have been possible to cover all of them.
With the BUFFs applied, Chen Mo immediately activated the Almighty Converter. He had no choice; the current BOSS's defense was as high as 3,000,000 points. If he did not convert the attack type to fixed damage, he wouldn't even be able to break through its defense!
