The Skeleton Warriors stood at the outermost circle, continuously cutting down the endless waves of the skeleton horde.
In the next moment, a fallen skeleton not far ahead suddenly emitted a faint gray light and then exploded with a loud bang.
Boom!
Thud thud thud...
The shattered bone spikes, like bullets, swept across a massive area of 30 meters in an instant.
-18062, -17998, -36984!...
A flood of damage numbers filled the screen, instantly clearing a large section of the skeleton horde, leaving shattered bones scattered everywhere.
[Kill a level 20 skeleton, gain an additional 50% overlevel bonus, experience +30 points, "Far Ahead" effect active, additional experience +6.]
[Kill a level 20 skeleton, gain an additional 50% overlevel bonus, experience +30 points, "Far Ahead" effect active, additional experience +6.]
...
With just one skill, Su Mubai was shocked to find his experience bar had surged nearly 4%!
This meant that the [Advanced Corpse Explosion] just now had instantly killed over two thousand skeletons!
Even though Su Mubai knew he was quite overpowered, he was still startled by this effect.
He had just used 10 skill points to upgrade [Advanced Corpse Explosion] to its maximum level.
After upgrading, the damage bonus and cooldown time remained unchanged; the only improvement was the skill''s range.
With each level increase, the explosion range increased by 0.5 meters, and the casting distance increased by 2.5 meters.
At maximum level, [Advanced Corpse Explosion] had an explosion range of 15 meters and a casting distance of 75 meters.
Combined with the class Cataclysm trait, this resulted in a massive 30-meter impact range!
Even without considering the damage boost from the [Death Codex], it was enough to instant kill these skeletons.
"White Night, you''re so strong."
Rod''s compliment brought Su Mubai back to his senses. He smiled without speaking and continued to control the skeleton legion to advance.

Every half a minute, a muffled sound would come from the front, and Su Mubai''s experience gain rate was several times faster than before.
He even considered staying here to keep farming, as it would be hard to find such a dense area of mobs elsewhere.
However, Su Mubai decided to finish exploring the Land of the Forgotten first.
Leveling up was never a problem for him.
With [Advanced Corpse Explosion], the skeleton legion''s advance speed increased significantly.
Before leveling up, Su Mubai had already reached the location of the second Soul Lock Coffin.
The boss in this Soul Lock Coffin, apart from the name, was just like Neil, also a half-Lich.
Su Mubai didn''t bother wasting time and didn''t wait for the opponent to speak grandly before glaring directly.
[Hint: You used "Death''s Gaze" on the Forgotten One—Carlos, and determined that your life level is higher than his.]
-1200000!
"What is this... ah!"
A terrifying gray-white number appeared, and Carlos instantly clutched his head and fled, trembling all over, letting out a painful howl.
His all attributes were forcibly reduced by 40%, and his HP cap was suddenly only 1.8 million.
The skeleton legion unleashed their full firepower, and before [Death''s Gaze] ended, this half-Lich had become a corpse.
[Kill level 20 Dark Gold BOSS "Forgotten One—Carlos," gain an additional 50% experience bonus, experience +750,000 points, "Far Ahead" effect active, additional experience +150,000 points.]
[Congratulations, player "White Night," for reaching level 12, all attributes +1, skill points +1, free attribute points +15.]
A flash of golden light, and Su Mubai leveled up again.
He reached out to take the [Cursed Crown Fragment] brought by the Skeleton Warrior and glanced at his experience bar.
Level 12, 21.67%.
To his surprise, the experience required to reach level 13 hadn''t doubled but increased by just one million, as before.
"Before level 19, it should increase by one million each time."
Su Mubai speculated this because levels ending in zero usually represented a threshold.
The skeleton legion in mid-air once again drew out the skeleton horde, and Su Mubai turned to look at the returning Rod.
Yes, this guy had run off again, shouting and screaming when the Soul Lock Coffin exploded.
"Where''s the next one?"
"Let me think..."
...
The Land of the Forgotten was always shrouded in darkness, but fortunately, the system time served as a reference.
The skeleton horde here wasn''t as endless as imagined. Not long after killing the fourth BOSS, the skeleton horde was completely wiped out by Su Mubai.
At this point, the Land of the Forgotten was covered in shattered bones, and every step Su Mubai took made a crunching sound.
However, Su Mubai didn''t notice that these bone fragments were slowly sinking into the ground at an extremely slow pace.
The Land of the Forgotten was always in darkness, with no sun in sight, making it easy to lose track of time.
[Kill level 20 Dark Gold BOSS "Forgotten One—Walter," gain an additional 50% experience bonus, experience +750,000 points, "Far Ahead" effect active, additional experience +150,000 points.]
When Su Mubai took the seventh [Cursed Crown Fragment] from the Skeleton Warrior.
He glanced at the system time and realized he had been here for over ten hours!
And his level had increased from level 10 when he first entered to level 15 now!
From entering the game until now, he hadn''t rested for a moment.
But Su Mubai didn''t feel tired at all.
Mainly because he hadn''t exerted much effort, especially after the skeleton horde was wiped out, he didn''t even need to use [Advanced Corpse Explosion].
He just needed to stroll behind the skeleton legion.
"Whew~ This map of the Land of the Forgotten is really big."
Picking up the last fragment, Su Mubai couldn''t help but sigh.
No wonder Situ Ji gave him a week to explore here; without the class Cataclysm trait, he wouldn''t have been able to completely deal with the skeleton horde.
"For such a difficult map, the attributes of this thing shouldn''t be too bad, right?"
Looking at the fragment in his hand, a glint flashed in Su Mubai''s eyes as he took out the other six pieces from his backpack.
At this moment, Rod floated back over from a distance.
Seeing Su Mubai''s actions, Rod''s pupils contracted sharply, as if recalling something terrifying, and suddenly clutched his head, his entire soul twisting.
Moments later, Rod returned to normal, shouting at Su Mubai with a face full of fear:
"No, you''ll be corrupted by it!"
However, his words were a step too late, as the seven fragments had already completed their reunion in Su Mubai''s hands.
Buzz~
A tri-colored light flashed, and the Cursed Crown, exuding a deathly aura, appeared in Su Mubai''s hand.
"It''s over!"
The fear on Rod''s face grew even more intense.
The system notification sounded at this moment.
