“Kill our way out!”

Qin Chen shouted angrily, his expression serious as he looked at the dense army of skeletons, feeling a chill run down his spine.

Beside him, the Skeleton Helmsman was even more terrified, his face pale as he closely followed Qin Chen, his legs trembling.

This place of vengeful spirits was his first time entering, and he initially thought that it was just the terrifying aura of vengeful spirits that could drive one insane. Unexpectedly, there was such a large army of corpses here.

What shocked him even more was the roar he had just heard, which contained an extremely terrifying soul shock, causing even him to tremble in fear.

In the midst of the sky-high army of corpses, Qin Chen activated the Demon Suppression Cauldron. With each strike, a large number of skeleton corpses were shattered, as if this cauldron was specifically designed to counter these corpses.

However, even so, many skeletons still managed to break through the blockade and pounce towards them.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The Skeleton Helmsman tried to assist Qin Chen, but he couldn't hold on for long before the army of skeletons overwhelmed him, leaving him in a disarray, adding more injuries to his already recovering body.

It wasn't that these skeletons were particularly strong, but rather that these bones were impervious to blades and spears, showing almost no pain, and seemed to have no will of their own, only knowing to charge forward.

If it weren't for the fact that the Skeleton Helmsman was a strong individual from the Demon Tribe and had some understanding of the Corpse Ghost Technique, an ordinary peak Martial King at the seventh level might have long since perished.

Even so, after just a brief moment of holding on, the Skeleton Helmsman was already covered in wounds, clearly on the verge of collapsing.

As they were about to breach the line of defense, suddenly a black shimmering light appeared, swiftly flashing past several skeletons in front of the Skeleton Helmsman, causing the vengeful spirit aura within those skeletons to emit a haunting scream as their bodies instantly fell, turning to dust.

“The mysterious rusted sword can indeed suppress these skeletons!”

Not far away, Qin Chen let out a sigh of relief.

These skeletons were remnants of the top experts from the ancient two clans. To have survived until now, they were undoubtedly the elite of their respective clans, with terrifying defenses, making it difficult even for the Skeleton Helmsman to shatter them.

Qin Chen was the same; relying solely on his own strength to kill them was no small task.

However, upon realizing that the reason these skeletons could move was due to the fusion of vengeful spirit aura, Qin Chen guessed that since the Demon Suppression Cauldron had a special effect on these skeletons, perhaps his mysterious rusted sword would also be effective against them.

As expected, the results of his previous attack exceeded Qin Chen's expectations. Under his mysterious rusted sword, the vengeful spirit aura sustaining these skeletons was easily overcome, as it was absorbed one after another.

“Skeleton Helmsman, you fend off those skeletons breaking through the line. Leave the rest to me.”

With a flash of his gaze, Qin Chen operated the Demon Suppression Cauldron to suppress a large group of skeletons while also using his sword control technique to wield the mysterious rusted sword.

In an instant, the mysterious rusted sword transformed into a beam of black sword light, wrapping around Qin Chen like a black thread. Wherever it passed, any skeleton hit would surely perish, turning back into shattered bones.

At the same time, a faint skeletal aura wafted out from the broken corpses.

“This is truly a great tonic!”

The Skeleton Helmsman's cold and deep eyes lit up, and he eagerly inhaled, causing wisps of skeletal aura to morph into wisps of green smoke, merging into his body.

Visible to the naked eye, the bones of the Skeleton Helmsman were slowly repairing. The originally damaged areas healed at a noticeable speed, becoming stronger than before.
