Chapter 506: Please Pass Through the Path of Bones Alive!

The God Forsaken Game Continent.

Outside the Jianghai Ruins, the Tomb of the God of Bones.

The surrounding area had already been cordoned off and protected by the Jianghai City Government, with players forbidden from entering to avoid disturbing Qin Feng.

When Qin Feng arrived, he found that the place hadn't changed at all since he last left.

Truth be told, that Director Dai, who preferred to remain anonymous, was quite reliable in his work.

By this time, Qin Feng had already used the unsealed 'Bone Authority' to enter the interior of the Tomb of the God of Bones…

After entering the tomb.

Qin Feng appeared in a long corridor.

[Detected challenging player's level: Level 35!]

[The tomb level has now been adjusted to: Level 35.]

[Challenge Objective: Please pass through the Path of Bones alive.]

[Challenge Reward: The Path of Bones is 200 kilometers long in total. The shorter the time taken to pass through the Path of Bones, the higher the reward tier.]

[Warning: Once you step onto the Path of Bones, you will be targeted by the 'Bone Dragon's' locked attack, which will forcibly reduce your movement speed/flying speed/skill casting speed by 90%!]

[Once you enter the range of the Path of Bones, the challenge will officially begin. Please prepare sufficient life-saving measures. Good luck.]

When the system notification arrived, Qin Feng was slightly puzzled.

Bone Dragon?

Where is it?

Qin Feng looked at the corridor ahead.

To the naked eye, this was just a Common corridor.

A two-hundred-kilometer-long corridor, its end completely invisible at a glance.

The corridor was about ten meters wide, flanked on both sides by grim walls of white bones. Every hundred meters along the walls, there was a stark white human skull. Pale flames flickered inside these skulls, casting an eerie and sinister glow from their hollow eye sockets.

As for his feet, they stepped on piles of white bones, uneven and full of potholes.

When Qin Feng looked up,

he realized that the ceiling of this corridor was invisible to the naked eye.

Looking up, there was only a vast expanse of dark space.

However…

Qin Feng immediately closed his eyes!

When Qin Feng used Umbra Perception to sense his surroundings, the entire environment became clear!

"This is clearly a canyon piled high with white bones, not a corridor at all…"

The full layout of the surrounding terrain materialized in Qin Feng's mind!

This canyon of white bones was not closed off at the top at all; it was open, leading to an empty, pitch-black space!

In that dark space, energy surged…

Qin Feng could sense that the energy was extremely dense Instant Death energy.

Even if a player could fly, flying upward into the dark area would only lead to certain death.

Yet in that dark space over five hundred meters above the canyon, dozens of 'Bone Dragons' were staring intently down at Qin Feng, waiting for him to begin the challenge to launch their locked attacks!

"Impressive."

"A locked attack that forcibly slows me down by 90%… If I'm attacked by them all the way, how could it be easy to fly across two hundred kilometers quickly?"

Qin Feng knew that the 90% slow from the locked attack must be a divine rule.

Whether it was Evasion, Invulnerability, crowd control removal, or control immunity, none of them could remove its effect.

After all, this was the rule of this challenge.

Rules set by an ancient god were not something ordinary abilities could resist.

"Furthermore, although I have the Order of 'Sniper Invalidation' which makes attacks from over a hundred meters away ineffective against me…"

"…this is, after all, an ancient god's trial. The attacks of those Bone Dragons might very well suppress my Order."

Qin Feng did some quick math:

"My current flying speed is 20% faster than my running speed, reaching a maximum of over 1,800 meters per second."

"But if I'm slowed by 90%, it will drop to just over 180 meters per second…"

"To fly two hundred kilometers at this speed, it would take nearly twenty minutes at the fastest."

Qin Feng shook his head.

Because this 90% slow effect not only reduced movement and flying speed, but also reduced skill casting speed,

Qin Feng's 'Shadow Warp' would also be slowed down accordingly, making it difficult to use for acceleration.

Furthermore, even if Qin Feng's Shadow Warp had as many as 88 charges, it was impossible to directly traverse a distance of 200 kilometers!

"If it's just about passing through alive, the difficulty shouldn't be too high."

"But if I want to maintain my speed…"

Qin Feng sighed.

He knew he had to think of some unconventional, underhanded methods.

"Since the attacks of those Bone Dragons will forcibly slow me down,"

"if I just kill them all, won't I avoid being slowed down?"

Qin Feng thought to himself instinctively.

Of course, for ordinary people, killing those Bone Dragons was simply impossible.

Because even in the late game, players' attack range could hardly exceed 500 meters.

Even if they had attacks with a range exceeding 500 meters, they wouldn't even know the locations of the Bone Dragons.

As for flying above the White Bone Canyon…

once they entered the darkness, they would be enveloped by boundless Instant Death energy!

The deeper they went into the darkness, the stronger the Instant Death energy would become!

Before they could even get close to where the Bone Dragons were, they would have died countless times.

But for Qin Feng…

Qin Feng was immune to the Instant Death Affix!

"There are thirty Bone Dragons in total, each with 400 million HP."

"Won't killing them be as easy as slaughtering pigs?"

Qin Feng could hardly suppress a smirk.

This environment and challenge seemed custom-made for him!

As long as he wiped out those Bone Dragons before the challenge began, wouldn't reaching the end of the Path of Bones be easier than eating and drinking?

With a clear path ahead and no slow effects, he could push his speed to the absolute limit!

Qin Feng looked at the 'Path of Bones' ahead.

By this time, he had already received the subsequent sub-rules.

The area of the Path of Bones was outlined by a white cubic frame. During the challenge, leaving this area was not allowed, otherwise it would count as a failure.

But as long as he didn't enter that area, the challenge wouldn't start…

The dark area in the sky was not counted within the range of the Path of Bones.

Therefore, as long as Qin Feng didn't enter the area, the challenge wouldn't begin, and he could clear out all the Bone Dragons beforehand.

Aside from that…

"The wall lamps along the Path of Bones periodically provide defensive barriers to block the Bone Dragon's attacks?"

"So normally, to pass through quickly, one has to rely on the surrounding wall lamps to block the Bone Dragon's attacks, advancing step by step to avoid being slowed by 90%."

"Isn't that just crawling in the dark like a snail?"

Qin Feng shook his head.

It was still better to clear out all the obstacles!

Thus, he did not waste any time.

With the Wings of Death unfolding behind him, they carried him upward. Carefully avoiding the challenge area of the Path of Bones, he plunged into the pitch-black environment!

Here, it was pitch black, to the point where even the light from the wall lamps of the Path of Bones was completely invisible.

In such an environment, ordinary players would immediately lose their sense of direction, let alone think about killing those 'Bone Dragons' whose locations were unknown.

Furthermore, this place was not just pitch black.

There was also an increasingly dense Instant Death Affix surging toward Qin Feng.

At first it was 50 points per second, then 100 points per second, then 200 points per second…

The higher he flew, the higher the Instant Death Affix became. Qin Feng had only flown up about ten meters, and the surrounding Instant Death Affix was already at 25,600 per second. Flying up a few more meters, the surrounding Instant Death Affix had already reached 409,600 per second!
