Chapter 75: Purple Jade Ring
However, the outco was unexpected.
“Annoying insect, you’ve completely enraged !”
When his health dropped to 30%, the Necromancer couldn’t hold back any longer. If things kept going like this, not only would the magic formation fail, but even he might lose his life here.
He split off a portion of his power to stabilize the current state of the magic formation, then swung his staff. Black energy began to gather on the staff, preparing to unleash a lethal blow on Jiang Chen.
But Jiang Chen imdiately sprang into action. With a high Agility of 596, skills like those of the Necromancer were completely ineffective.
“Ignorant adventurer, behold the power of darkness!”
“The Hand of the Undead shall seize your life…”
“Bathe in the corrosive mist…”
The boss started throwing out a barrage of skills — [Dark Orb], [Undead Imprisonnt], [Corrosive Corpse Mist] — all blasted toward Jiang Chen.
-2155!
Miss!
-421!
-421!
-421!
A string of damage numbers popped up over Jiang Chen’s head, his health suddenly dropping by nearly half. All of this was in order to avoid the control skill [Undead Imprisonnt].
5000!
Jiang Chen moved swiftly, downing a level-3 refined potion in a split second, then drew his longbow and began trading blows with the boss…
-1947!
-1995!
-1931!
The effect of Bloodthirsty Fury had already worn off, and Jiang Chen’s attack speed dropped by nearly half, but his damage was still considerable. Most importantly, the enemy was no longer reinforcing the magic formation.
The mage class was all about burst damage. Jiang Chen had taken a full skill combo and survived — this downti was his chance to ‘return the favor’.
Ti ticked by.
The Necromancer’s health steadily declined at an even rate. During this, it kept frantically casting spells at Jiang Chen. To avoid fatal control skills, Jiang Chen had to tank so of the damage.
When its health dropped by half, Jiang Chen imdiately kited it around, drank another potion, and resud pumling the boss.
In less than three minutes, finally — plop! — with one final Phantom Strike Arrow, Jiang Chen knocked the boss flat on the ground!
“Finally completed the quest.”
Staring at the boss’s corpse on the ground, Jiang Chen took a deep breath. He had thrown everything he had into it — but he managed to stop this guy from resurrecting the Silver Dragon General. That was no small feat…
From the start of the battle to the end, it only took 4 minutes and 27 seconds — a speed even the elite teams of major guilds would never dare dream of.
“Ding!”
“Congratulations on slaying the Golden Boss [Necromancer]. You have gained 370,000 EXP!”
“Ding! Congratulations on completing the hidden quest [Resurrected Undead General]. Please take the Necromancer’s head to City Lord Luo En of Yunhuang City to claim your reward.”
A series of ga notifications flashed on the screen.
370,000 EXP — not bad.
But Jiang Chen still didn’t level up. His EXP bar was at 95%. There was still the quest reward to collect from the city lord…
Then, Jiang Chen turned his gaze to the loot.
“Ding!”
“Congratulations! You obtained loot: Gold 58. Triggered [Hundredfold Reward] effect. Final reward: Gold 5800!”
Sure enough, Golden Bosses are rich — just the gold alone is a hefty sum.
Sweet!
He kept looting.
“Ding! Congratulations! You obtained loot: Enhancent Rune. Triggered [Hundredfold Reward] effect. Final reward: Enhancent Rune · Supre!”
“Ding! Congratulations! You obtained loot: Enhancent Rune. Triggered [Hundredfold Reward] effect. Final reward: Enhancent Rune · Supre!”
“Ding! Congratulations! You obtained loot: Enhancent Rune. Triggered [Hundredfold Reward] effect. Final reward: Enhancent Rune · Supre!”
Holy sh*t!
Jiang Chen’s pupils widened — he thought his device had lagged! Three consecutive notifications, all [Enhancent Rune · Supre]?
He quickly opened his inventory in excitent.
[Enhancent Rune · Supre] x3!
Sure enough — three runes.
In fact, the drop rate of Enhancent Runes was extrely low — even lower than that of gear or skill books. On par with boss cores like the Heart of Lava.
Getting three in one go — that’s ridiculously lucky.
Jiang Chen was feeling generous. Without hesitation, he used the runes on the Painted Sparrow Phantom Bow.
Even though he had so diamond-grade weapons, their enhancent returns were too low — especially for adaptive diamond gear.
A prompt appeared: “Do you want to activate [Enhancent Rune · Supre] on Painted Sparrow Phantom Bow? Current success rate: 100%.”
“Yes!” No hesitation whatsoever.
“Enhancent successful! Your equipnt [Painted Sparrow Phantom Bow] is now 2!”
“Enhancent successful! Your equipnt [Painted Sparrow Phantom Bow] is now 3!”
“Enhancent successful! Your equipnt [Painted Sparrow Phantom Bow] is now 4!”
Three enhancents in a row — all succeeded. The equipnt stats had skyrocketed.
[Painted Sparrow Phantom Bow]（ 4）
Quality: Platinum-grade
Type: Weapon
Attack: 612 ( 248)
Strength: 115 ( 48)
Agility: 85 ( 36)
Level Requirent: Lv30
…
Three enhancents granted an increase of: Attack 330, Agility 27.
These stats were likely on par with diamond-grade weapons.
Nice.
Let’s continue with the looting.
Next, he pulled out a bunch of rare materials — not very valuable.
He fished again and suddenly felt a chill in his hand. Pulling it out, he saw a ring.
When he saw the ring’s appearance, Jiang Chen’s heart couldn’t help but tremble. The ring emitted a violet glow — that misty purple aura was clearly extraordinary.
An Athyst item?
“Ding! Congratulations! You obtained loot: [Skywind Cloud Ring] (Platinum-grade). Triggered [Hundredfold Reward] effect. Final reward: [Purple Jade Ring] (Athyst-grade)!”
It’s really an Athyst item!
Jiang Chen’s hands trembled slightly — the ring was inlaid with a qilin-shaped design, and its stats were astonishing.
[Purple Jade Ring] (Unidentified)
Quality: Athyst-grade
Stats: Constitution 10, Strength 10, Spirit 10, Agility 10
Additional Effects: Increases user’s attack power by 5%, Increases user’s critical hit rate by 5%, Increases user’s critical hit damage by 5%
Level Requirent: Lv40
…
Terrifying!
Absolutely terrifying!
Staring at the stat panel, Jiang Chen was stunned.
As expected of an Athyst-grade item — four base stats and three bonus effects. Even though it was still unidentified, you could already glimpse the tip of the iceberg from the visible stats.
Anyone who owned this ring could easily rise to fa — no question about it.
The base attributes were incredibly well-rounded, while the bonus effects clearly favored physical-damage classes — attack power, crit rate, and crit damage were all physical stats.
This was undoubtedly a trump card item for archers or assassins.
