“Tt actually upgraded Brutal Strike passive skill. Great.” Zhou Chen was delighted.

He had obtained this Brutal Strike passive for a long time, but it had yet to be upgraded. This time, it directly rose from mid bronze to mid silver. The triggered probability increased by 10%, and the damage increased by two times. It could be said to be a huge increase.
Moreover, the mid bronze-ranked Brutal Strike passive skill could only cause critical hits during physical damage attacks. This time, there was no such restriction. All kinds of damage could be tumed to critical hits as long as they were close combat attacks.
“My strength is far stronger than before. My critical hit ability has enhanced greatly. If am lucky, I will be able to instakill a weaker opponent of the same level.”

While he was thinking, Zhou Chen had already killed most of the monsters, leaving only two strange monsters that looked like phantoms.

Zhou Chen did not attack with his full strength against these two monsters that seemed to be evil spirits. He only casually hit them twice and relied on the Enforce passive skill to seriously injure them. Then, he summoned Little Red to devour them.

While Little Red was busy, Zhou Chen's body had already turned into lightning and returned to Vera's side.

“Who is that woman?” Vera had been watching the battle from afar. She had already expected Zhou Chen to crush the monsters, but she was curious about the red-dressed woman who appeared.

“It's called Little Red. It's my evil spirit summon.”

“Oh, I thought it was your companion.” Vela nodded and asked, “What are you doing in this Abyss?”

“To help someone. I don't know the details.” Zhou Chen got on his hovering motorcycle and called out to Vera. “Come on.”

Vera was curious about the vehicle. She took a few glances at it and sat behind Zhou Chen.

“Let's go.”

Zhou Chen activated the hovering motorcycle and headed in the direction of Little Red.

Little Red had basically finished devouring the evil spirits. As soon as Zhou Chen arrived, it flew into his interspatial ring.

“sit tight, I will speed up.”

Zhou Chen activated the ion shield of the hovering motorcycle to protect himself and Vera. Then, he rode the hovering motorcycle to the air and accelerated at full speed, reaching the speed of Mach 10 in a second.

This acceleration caused a huge increase in speed, putting a huge burden on the driver and passenger's bodies. Or rather, it would cause ordinary people to die instantly even with the protection of the ion shield. However, Zhou Chen and Vera were not ordinary people. Their bodies were very strong, and
the two of them seemed to be at ease throughout the entire process.

“Your two-wheeled vehicle can fly so high and so fast?”

At this moment, Vera was observing the Abyss through the translucent ion shield. She saw the scenery on the ground moving quickly backward, and new scenery kept appearing on the horizon. It looked magnificent.

“It's okay, it's slightly inferior to your teleportation stone.” Zhou Chen smiled. He still remembered that the girl had a teleportation stone. They had used it to reach the Holy Mountain previously.

“That one is different.” Vera replied. “There is a limit to the number of Teleportation Stones, and they cannot be used in the Abyss.”

As the two of them chatted, they quickly traversed the distance. They did not encounter a large number of monsters along the way, so they continued and did not stop. An hour later, they arrived near a red mountain.

'This mountain was not very unique in the abyss. Zhou Chen had encountered several mountains that were taller and larger than it on the way, but through the strong fluctuation here, he knew that he had not come to the wrong place.

“This should be the place.” He stopped the hovering motorcycle and jumped out with Vera. Then, he put the motorcycle in his inventory.

“There's the aura of a demon lord here!” Once she stood on the ground, Vera's beautiful face became serious and vigilant.

“That would be best. I'm just afraid that there won't be anything.” Zhou Chen did not care about this. Instead, he squeezed his knuckles excitedly and began to focus on sensing the surroundings to find a possible opponent.

A few seconds later.

“This place is too big, let's use this.” He took out the bizarre mirror from his inventory and probed the area between the mountain and the surroundings.

Large amounts of red stones appeared in the mirror. As the scenes on the mirror kept moving, he realized that the surface of the mirror had become blurry in a certain area inside the mountain, as if it had become frosted. He could not see anything.
“There's interference. The person I'm looking for should be there.”

He knew that this situation meant that the location the bizarre mirror had probed was abnormal and had used some kind of counter-detection method installed there.

“But there doesn't seem to be a passage to enter inside the mountain.”

Zhou Chen controlled the bizarre mirror to scan the other locations to confirm this situation.

“Then let's blast it open.”

If there was no path, he would create one.

He immediately shot towards the huge red mountain and punched.

He had converted the Eight Desolates True Energy into the dual attribute of metal and earth to increase its strength.

Under the punch, the mountain seemed to have turned into water. With the location of his punch as the center, the rocks sunk in deeply, and the depression expanded. In the blink of an eye, the entire mountain lost most of its mass and collapsed, turning from a huge mountain to rubble.
“The path is here.”

After shattering the red mountain with his full strength, Zhou Chen quickly found an entrance-like passage on the ground. He could sense several powerful auras from inside.

“Vera, I'll go in and take a look.”

With the enemy in front of him, Zhou Chen felt that he would be able to vent the energy that had remained idle for the past month. Therefore, he turned into lightning and instantly charged in.

Vera was also ready to fight. She rested in the motorcycle for an hour and ate the food in Zhou Chen's space ring to replenish her energy. She was in a good state.

After guarding the entrance for a few seconds, she suddenly raised her claymore and slashed, sending a thin humanoid monster covered in blood-red scales flying back ten meters. At the same time, her face turned pale, as if she had been injured.
“What ability is this?”

'The enemy in front of her was a little strange, but Vera was not afraid. Instead, she gave a shout and a stronger aura exploded from her body. A faint light surrounded her as she ruthlessly slashed with the claymore.

Zhou Chen was also fighting underground. He realized that the space here was larger than he had expected, and there were more monsters. Some of them were quite strong. He did not manage to instakill all of them and even let one or two escape.
But with Vera guarding outside, he believed that it would not be a problem.

His entire body was covered in golden light, and there were a few wisps of purple lightning flashing in the golden light. He was fighting two high-level humanoid demons at an extremely high speed.

These two opponents were very strong, possibly high silver rank. Not only could they follow Zhou Chen's speed, but they also knew how to cooperate. They kept attacking him from the front and back, using their sharp claws to leave wounds on Zhou Chen's body.
Zhou Chen was also constantly injuring them, sending them flying again and again. The armor on the surface of their bodies cracked, and dark red liquid seeped out.

“These two opponents are really strong. This is the fight I want. Again!” It would be boring to instakill all the enemies. Zhou Chen felt very relieved that these two opponents could hold him back temporarily.

However, this situation changed a few seconds later.

His Berserk passive skill had stacked, and the Brutal Strike skill he had just leveled up had also been triggered repeatedly, instantly dealing terrifying damage.

The humanoid demon that was only bleeding after being sent flying by him exploded into pieces.

The other demon that was attacking his back could not keep up with his doubled speed and was swept by his kick.

Although Zhou Chen did not trigger the Brutal Strike, the attack power was still very high when it was stacked with Berserk and the support of the Eight Desolates True Energy. The demon was seriously injured and flew into the nearby stone wall, unable to get up as quickly as before.
Even if the enemy could not fight anymore, Zhou Chen would not show mercy. He instantly approached it like a bolt of lightning and kicked its head, crushing it. Then, he kicked its head again, detaching it from its body.

[Passive Plunderer triggered: You have stolen the claw demon general's passive skills, “Agility Enhancement V, Copper Skin Iron Bones V”. Detected that they are superior to the passive skills you already have. They will automatically be replaced.]
After killing these two opponents, Zhou Chen opened the system and checked. He realized that his agility had finally broken through 8, becoming 8.3, and became his highest attribute stat.

'As for the upgraded Copper Skin Iron Bones, it made his body more tenacious. At the same time, some of the light wounds left in the battle instantly healed under the enhancement of the Berserk recovery.

“It seems like a powerful monster has escaped. I can't let it go.”

Zhou Chen remembered that in the battle just now, a monster with a strong aura had fled. He did not find a second monster of this type, so he decided to chase after it.

Through his Bloodthirst perception, he knew that this monster was fighting with Vera and had been stalled by her.

Zhou Chen's speed was extremely fast. He returned to the ground almost instantly. Then, he saw that not far away, Vera was glowing slightly. She was using a similarly glowing claymore to slash out a large number of sword lights to suppress this enemy, making it difficult for it to escape.
Vera seemed to be injured. She was very cautious and kept using her sword light to block the enemy from approaching her.

“Use long-range attacks!” Vera immediately shouted loudly when she sensed Zhou Chen.

“Okay.”

Zhou Chen believed that there was a reason why Vera was attacking like this, so he did not attack in close combat. Instead, he used his Eight Desolates True Energy to send a fist the size of a small mountain.

He first used the ice attribute. After the monster froze, he changed to the wind attribute. A kick drew an arc in the air, and an invisible wind blade instantly pierced through this monster's head, making a blood line appear on its head. Half of its frozen head slid to the ground.
[Passive Plunderer triggered: You have stolen the Fear Demon's passive skills “Feast V, Rebound V”. Detected that they are superior to the passive skills you already have. They will automatically be replaced.]

[Passive Plunderer triggered: You have stolen the Fear Demon's passive skills “Stun V, Bonus Damage V”. Do you want to absorb them?]

{stun V

'Type: Mid Silver passive skill

Your melee attacks have a 20% chance of inflicting spirit shock to the enemy, stunning them for 1.5 seconds.

The higher the spirit attribute of the target, the shorter the duration of the stun effect. It might even be completely negated.]

[Bonus Damage V

'Type: Mid Silver passive skill

Your melee attacks stack bonus damage on the target. Every stack increases all damage taken by 15%(maximum 5 stacks).]

“Absorb!”

After reading the skill introductions, Zhou Chen immediately chose to absorb the two new passive skills.

'There was a reason for Vera's previous strategy. This monster was very good against close combat attacks. It could lifesteal and reflect damage in close combat, while its attacks carried stun effect and increased damage.

Unfortunately, it was a little cowardly and chose to escape. Otherwise, it could have given Zhou Chen some trouble if it had fought him with other demons.

Of course, it was only some trouble, it would not be able to change the outcome of the battle because its body was not too tough. The moment Zhou Chen discovered its weakness, it would be doomed with just a release of true energy or a critical hit.
“This Bonus Damage passive skill increases my strength greatly. If I encounter a tanky enemy again, I won't need to spend so much time.”

Compared to the Stun passive skill with fluctuating effectiveness depending on the opponent's Spirit, Zhou Chen was more happy about the Bonus Damage because it did not have such restrictions. In other words, its damage increase effect was the same for all targets. It could increase Zhou Chen's overall
damage by 75% maximum. This ratio was quite terrifying, not inferior to the mid silver rank Brutal Strike passive skill.

“TIl go take a look.” After checking his gains, Zhou Chen tured to enter the underground passage again because there were still some enemies downstairs.
However, he quickly stopped and looked up at the sky.

There, a black dot was shooting toward them from afar.

This black dot looked inconspicuous, but as it appeared, Zhou Chen sensed an extremely powerful pressure.

“It's a demon lord!” Vera also noticed the black dot and her expression became very serious.

“Who cares if it is some lord? Just kill it.” Zhou Chen's fighting spirit rose when faced with a powerful enemy. This opponent gave him the feeling that its strength was greater than his, making him feel a rare threat to his life.
If it were anyone else, they would definitely think of a way to escape, but Zhou Chen chose to face it head-on.

Because he was a martial artist. If a martial artist wanted to obtain true improvement, they had to face stronger opponents..
