I, the Necromancer, will crush the gods!

Chapter 702 The Demon Emperor's Shock

Shenlong Ancient City is the name given by the Shenlong people.

Its real name is Godslayer Fortress, an incredibly powerful weapon of war.

Among them, "slaying the gods" refers to the true gods.

At its peak, with its full power unleashed, it could annihilate even a true god.

Jiang Chen's current power is less than one ten-thousandth of its peak strength, but it is already enough to rival beings like the Demon Emperor and the Dragon Emperor.

Even killing a level 98 near-godlike Jiang Yi would be no problem.

This demonstrates the immense power of the God-Slaying Fortress. The unsuspecting Divine Dragon people used the Ancient Divine Dragon City as a resting fortress. It was precisely through this fortress that humanity secured a place on the four continents of the lower dimension of the Ancient Battlefield.

The ancient city was bustling with people.

Jiang Chen reappeared outside the ancient city and strode inside.

The people in the ancient city seemed to have changed again, with many unfamiliar faces appearing. Some had left the ancient city, left the ancient battlefield, and returned to the human world to enjoy a rare moment of peace.

Newcomers also arrive here to begin their adventures. Jiang Chen could sense a hint of joy emanating from Gureta.

He has gained the approval of Gureta, and as Gureta's new master, although he cannot yet fully control this ancient god fortress, his authority already surpasses that of Legion Commander Feng Yiming.

As long as his soul is strong enough, Jiang Chen can even control the ancient god fortress to take off and fight.

Jiang Chen learned from Antares that after reaching the god-level, the most important thing is the soul. The soul not only represents combat power, but also level, realm, future, and so on...

The soul is the root of everything.

This was Antares's summary of the soul, and Jiang Chen kept it firmly in mind.

This time, upon arriving at the Divine Dragon Ancient City, Jiang Chen did not activate the Ancient Thunder Tower. He stood in the plaza, communicating with the core of the Ancient Thunder Tower to obtain the latest information about it.

The core of Gureta has many functions, one of which is recording everyday events.

Based on Jiang Chen's feelings about the Ancient Thunder Tower, the Ancient Thunder Tower should possess some consciousness, just like the Stone Spirit in the Divine Stone Dungeon.

However, this consciousness is currently dormant, leaving only some instincts to act according to the rules.

Jiang Chen was confident that his judgment was correct. He always had that feeling when communicating with the core of Gureta, which was quite peculiar.

When Gureta awakens one day, it may be able to communicate with me. Some powerful artifacts may develop independent intelligence. The Demon-Slaying Tower seems to have also developed a trace of intelligence, but its main body is still too weak.

It seems to be slowly growing stronger by consuming the electrical elements of Gureta, but there is still a long way to go before it can finally develop intelligence.

"what?"

Jiang Chen saw a figure in the records of Gu Lei Tower.

A woman wearing a form-fitting mage's robe.

This woman was stunningly beautiful. Jiang Chen was not a womanizer, but he had to admit that only the Water Goddess could compare to her beauty.

Her beauty alone was not enough to surprise Jiang Chen; what surprised him was that he realized he seemed to know this woman.

He was certain he had never seen this woman before, but for some reason, she seemed somewhat familiar at first glance.

“There’s something wrong with this person’s identity,” Jiang Chen was certain. He was sure that this person’s identity was definitely suspicious, otherwise he wouldn’t have this feeling.

According to Gureta's information, the woman left after a short stay.

When leaving, each step covered more than ten meters.

This caught Jiang Chen's attention again. The woman wasn't fast; rather, she seemed to teleport, disappearing from one place with a single step and reappearing in another.

"It's a bit like teleportation. Is this also a law?"

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Chen was unable to find the corresponding person in his memory and had to give up.

Recently, with the end of the war, more and more professionals have come to Gureta.

Everything is peaceful and safe.

Jiang Chen left the Divine Dragon Ancient City.

Along with him, another group of people left Shenlong Ancient City. After leaving the city, this group quickly headed in one direction, clearly with a purpose.

Before leaving, someone glanced at Jiang Chen, and only when they saw that Jiang Chen did not follow did the wariness in their eyes disappear.

It seemed they had found a boss and wanted to challenge it. Jiang Chen smiled slightly, quickly guessing their intentions. Maintaining vigilance was a good thing; in a place like the Ancient Battlefield, losing vigilance could mean certain death.

As Jiang Chen left the Divine Dragon Ancient City, a will descended silently.

The Demon Emperor, who had been waiting outside the ancient city for several days, suddenly opened his eyes.

"Jiang Chen, you've finally arrived."

Her soul and will silently locked onto Jiang Chen. Her level was far higher than Jiang Chen's, and Jiang Chen was completely unaware of this lock-on that was not hostile.

Just as she was wondering how to greet Jiang Chen, he suddenly spread his wings and vanished instantly. His soul lock severed, the Demon Emperor was shocked. "I've been discovered!"

"That's impossible!"

Even with her keen eyesight, she couldn't discern where Jiang Chen had gone. Both her eyes and her soul had vanished from his sight in an instant. She reasoned that Jiang Chen hadn't noticed her, but his sudden disappearance remained unbelievable.

Her soul had completely lost its lock on Jiang Chen, but that didn't matter; the aura she left on Jiang Chen was still there.

Just seconds later, she sensed Jiang Chen's presence again. To her shock, Jiang Chen was now thousands of kilometers away. His speed was simply unbelievable.

Even some high-level gods don't have such speed. Jiang Chen's speed is already comparable to hers.

"How can he be so fast!"

"This is unreasonable."

The next second, Jiang Chen's aura vanished again. The Demon Emperor, filled with shock, took light steps and sped off in the direction Jiang Chen had gone.

Her method of advancement differed from Jiang Chen's. Jiang Chen relied solely on speed, while the Demon Emperor embodied the laws of nature, as if teleporting.

Each step covers hundreds of kilometers.

A few steps later, they arrived at the spot where Jiang Chen had appeared earlier. The sound of waves crashing against the shore filled the air, and thunder rumbled in the distance, "Wind, Thunder, and Sea!"

The Demon Emperor murmured, memories welling up in his eyes.

She had been here long ago, before she was the Demon Emperor. Not only had she been here, she had also visited the Great Whirlpool.

A thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye. Coming here again and looking at the Sea of ​​Wind and Thunder, I still feel nostalgic.

Jiang Chen's aura reappeared, and in just a few seconds, he had crossed the Wind and Thunder Sea and entered the Wind and Thunder Continent.

"What are we going to the Wind and Thunder Continent for?" The Demon Emperor asked with a slight chuckle, and followed them.

Jiang Chen's actions piqued her interest.

She followed again, crossing the Sea of ​​Wind and Thunder in a few steps, calm and serene, without a trace of worldly troubles.

All her movements were incredibly elegant, completely different from her majestic demeanor in the Demon Emperor's palace.

She stopped moving and remained where she was.

She concealed herself as she approached Jiang Chen, only to find him engaged in battle. Patches of lightning trees were collapsing and dying, while Jiang Chen stood in mid-air, watching his undead army decimate the lightning tree groves.

In the air, there was a massive bone gate shrouded in silvery flames, and from within the gate, a giant eye was looking down upon the world.

"He's leveling up?" The Demon Emperor realized what Jiang Chen was doing. The grove of lightning trees beneath their feet was quite large, exceeding 30,000 trees, and also included a world boss-level lightning tree grove.

At this point, a grove of lightning trees of this caliber was nothing more than a piece of cake for Jiang Chen. The Eye of the Dead slowly rotated, surveying the world below.

The Demon Emperor suddenly frowned, and his soul trembled slightly.

Then she heard Jiang Chen's voice.

"Come out!"
