Chapter 645: Chapter 321: Overtaken! (Two in one)_3
The black droplets dripping from the stone wall of the abyss emitted a nauseating gurgling sound, filling the air with a strong smell of decay.
Devils’ growls and wails pervaded the Dark Abyss, where these wicked creatures roamed freely, their eyes gleaming with evil red light, their teeth as sharp as knives, and their bodies radiating a bone-chilling Dark Energy.
They could shapeshift into terrifying forms such as demon hounds, Demon’s Hand, and Skeleton Warriors, searching for prey in the darkness with bloodthirsty gazes.
At the end of the abyss, a giant cursed treasure chest hovered silently, surrounded by Dark Energy and exuding an intimidating presence.
The chest radiated an evil aura; its surface was carved with cursed runes, reflecting a hint of blood-red light when hit by rays.
Within it was the last and largest divine artifact component fragment.
However, it was much more challenging to get this piece compared to the other fragments.
The most significant predicament was that teleportation and sensing abilities were impossible within the Dark Abyss; one could only rely on their intuition to navigate.
This place seemed to be sealed by some special Rule Power.
Even with all of Chen Mo’s capabilities, he still found it hard to exert his power against the Rule Power.
Chen Mo had no choice but to rely on the Skeleton Monsters that he had dispersed to find the correct path forward.
As for the devils blocking the way, they were no match for Chen Mo’s monstrous Skeleton Monsters. With hundreds of millions of Skeleton Monsters clearing the path, Chen Mo’s journey through the abyss felt no different from a casual stroll.
Before long, he reached the giant cursed treasure chest.
According to Moluo’s Brain’s analysis, the key to breaking the curse of this giant cursed treasure chest was to kill an ample amount of devils and let it absorb the scattered demonic energy.
Chen Mo didn’t even need Moluo’s Brain’s analysis; his Skeleton Monsters had already almost wiped out the devils in the Dark Abyss, nearly driving them to extinction. When his Skeleton Monsters had freely moved around and eradicated ninety percent of the devils in the Dark Abyss, the BOSS guarding the last artifact shard, the Ultimate Demon, finally showed up.
It was extremely tall, with a pair of wings covered in demonic feathers on its back, billowing dark mist and scorching flames.
Its body was twisted and grotesque, covered in hardened black scales. Its eyes gleamed with an evil red light, and its teeth were sharp as knives.
The Ultimate Demon possessed destructive power. It could control Dark Energy, blasting Chen Mo with demonic fire and venom.
Its physical attacks were equally fierce, using its massive claws and sharp tail to swipe and pierce enemies.
“Dominator of the Undead, since this item has fallen into our hands, not even you, the Dominator of the Undead, can hope to retrieve it from this Dark Abyss.” Seeing Chen Mo, the Dominator of the Undead, this creature grew even more arrogant.
The devil certainly had the credentials to be arrogant. Its attributes were high, and the fact that it could be Immortal in this dark realm was its biggest reliance.
The key was that this effect wasn’t because of some talent or Skill, but a curse.
It was a curse that it obtained after it fell into the Dark Abyss, a curse that made it forever trapped and Immortal in the Dark Abyss, unable to leave this area of its own accord.
Therefore, using Sealing Abilities on it would be pointless unless the curse was lifted.
Chen Mo’s Heart of Curse could only help him become immune to and absorb curses; it could not remove curses from others.
Under normal circumstances, to snatch the artifact shard from under the Ultimate Demon’s eye, one had to dodge its attacks while killing devil minions. Once enough devils were killed to unlock the cursed treasure chest, one would grab the shard and run without engaging it. But now, the speed at which the devil minions spawned was extremely slow; clearly, the Heavenly Dao was intentionally delaying the opening of the treasure chest, not allowing people to acquire it easily.
Dragging it out like this, having to continuously endure the attacks of an invincible BOSS, was actually quite hard. This was the most difficult aspect of this artifact shard mission.
The previous four times were simply warm-ups.
Of course, this was the standard way of playing.
But Chen Mo was not someone who treaded the traditional path. He didn’t want to waste time with the devil, so he activated the Void Source Crystal and directly pulled the Ultimate Demon into the Void Realm.
Now, the curse that granted the Ultimate Demon Immortality within the Dark Abyss was nullified in the Void Realm.
Once it was pulled into the Void Realm, Chen Mo’s Skeleton Monsters fired a volley and quickly killed the Ultimate Demon.
The easy kill was utterly satisfying. The level that was supposed to take up a lot of time was solved in an instant by Chen Mo.
With the death of the Ultimate Demon, equivalent to hundreds of millions of lesser devils, the cursed treasure chest was immediately filled with energy when its corpse was dragged back to the real world, and it popped open with a CLICK.
Inside was a divine artifact component fragment the size of a marble.
It was considerably larger than the four little-finger-sized divine artifact component fragments Chen Mo had collected before.
With the last divine artifact component fragment now collected, all that remained was to reforge the divine artifact component to complete this main quest for the divine artifact component.
Due to the inability to teleport in the final level, Chen Mo spent a lot of time traveling and was surprisingly outpaced by Zhui Yi in progress!
