《Doomsday Online: Supreme Blessing》 Chapter 1: Crazy Killing, Supreme Blessing

Chapter 1: Crazy Killing, Supreme Blessing

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Dragon City No.1 Middle School, rooftop. The ss bell rang, but Link didn¡¯t return to the ssroom. In his hand, he held a half-human long Tang dynasty de, which had a sharp de and a beautiful scabbard. This de cost almost all his savings, but his heart didn¡¯t feel even the slightest pain for the loss of money because he knew that the doomsday game would descend in a few minutes, and all current currencies would be worthless. When that moment came, tsunamis, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions... All the terrifying natural disasters that had a name seemed to have made an agreement to ur on the Blue Star at the same time. At that moment, the entire Blue Star¡¯s death toll would exceed one billion! This also was just the beginning; the more terrifying part had yet toe. Space itself would tear apart, and arge number of monsters from different worlds, abysses, and hells poured out from the void. They were extremely powerful, brutal, and savage. They also fed on humans. The high-tech weapons and scientific civilization that mankind was proud of were almost useless against them. The order and civilization that belonged exclusively to the humans on Blue Star were destroyed in an instant. And he, Link from ten years in the future, had been reborn to this point of time! ... ¡°It¡¯s almost here! Five minutes left.¡± Link was wiping the Tang de. He raised his wrist and looked at the time, his drooping eyes as calm as a quietke. But hidden in the depths of this calmness were his endless, turbulent emotions. He muttered softly, ¡°In this lifetime, I will definitely stand at the pinnacle of the world!¡± The world in front of him was still as harmonious as before. The sky was spotless, and the white clouds driftedzily. In the empty campus, he could clearly hear readings in some ssrooms. On the street further away, pedestrians chatted happily, talking andughing. The spacious roads were full of traffic. The surrounding buildings were tall and magnificent, and the charm of the modern city could be seen at a nce. At this moment, no one knew that there was a young man holding a Tang de on Dragon City No.1 Middle School¡¯s rooftop. He was counting down to the world¡¯s doomsday. ¡°30... 20... 10... 9...¡± Link raised his head, a rare look of greed and nostalgia appearing in his eyes. It was as if he was imprinting the peaceful scene in front of him deep into his mind. Link then drew the de out from its scabbard and turned around, entering the stairway and disappearing from the rooftop. Almost at the same second Link left the rooftop, the whole world suddenly dimmed. BOOM! Thunderous lightning that resounded across the sky suddenly appeared. On Blue Star, the hearts of all human beings trembled at this moment. ¡°What¡¯s the matter? Is it going to rain?¡± ¡°It was sunny just now. Why is the sky so gloomy suddenly...?¡± In a certain ssroom, the students sitting by the window were taken aback and looked up at the sky in confusion. A bad premonition gradually emerged in everyone¡¯s heart. Suddenly, faint ck cracks seemed to appear in the air. The cracks gradually spread out, crazily expanding like a ck spider web. ROAR! A cold, low, dull roar came out from the crack, making those who heard it start to panic. ¡°What¡¯s that?¡± A young female teacher¡¯s face paled. Her mouth opened slightly, and her pupils were full of shock. While pointing out the window, the textbook in her hand fell directly to the ground as her lips trembled. The students followed her gaze, and they were instantly transfixed by the sight. A decaying skull stuck to the window, and the hollow eyeholes glowed with a green light. The corners of its mouth curved upwards as if it was sneering. ¡°AH¡ª¡± ¡°Ghost!¡± The next moment, chaotic screams resounded through Dragon City No.1 Middle School¡¯s ssrooms. Panic spread, and everyone was in fear. ... Link walked out of the teaching building through the stairway. He looked up at the sky, his eyes deep and profound. The school became chaotic; students began leaving their ssrooms and ran around randomly. ¡°AH¡ª¡± A boy was caught by a skeleton, pushed him into the ground, and directly stepped on him. The boy¡¯s spine was broken, and he vomited out mouthfuls of blood. His body trembled uncontrobly from the pain. Some people were grabbed by several skeletons at the same time and torn into pieces. Their internal organs fell to the ground, and blood sttered everywhere. However, this only added to the skeletons¡¯ sense of brutality. ... More and more skeletons appeared on the school¡¯s campus. They seemed to appear out of thin air, and there was an endless amount of them. Everyone was running away, screaming, asking for help, and roaring... Link had zero psychological fluctuations at all when faced with this scene. He had seen disasters thousands of times more terrifying than the current scene. He was used to it. The current sight... was just child¡¯s y to him! With unwavering eyes, he walked towards the nearest skeleton. His surroundings were very chaotic, so nobody took notice of him. The skeleton was pressing a girl under its body, pping her head again and again with its rotten palm. It was bloody and cruel! It noticed Link approaching and raised its head, roaring at him. It seemed that it was trying to scare away this seemingly weak creature. Link remained unmoved and continued to approach the skeleton. The skeleton was angered and gave up on hitting the girl. It stood up and sprinted toward Link; it then swung itsrge palm toward him. If this p hit, Link¡¯s head would probably be smashed t. Link didn¡¯t seem to notice it; there were still no traces of any fluctuation in his eyes. Just when the skeleton¡¯s palm was about to reach him, his head tilted, nicely dodging the attack. The skeleton was dazed; it didn¡¯t expect that this weak human could actually dodge its attack. It was about tounch a second attack when it suddenly noticed that the human in front of it had moved! Link took a step forward. The Tang de in his hand drew a straight line in the air and directly pierced through the skeleton¡¯s eye at a speed that the skeleton could hardly react to. Chi! The skeleton instantly stiffened. The green me in its eyes suddenly trembled, then gradually extinguished. At the same time, a pleasant voice sounded in Link¡¯s mind. [Ding! Sessfully killed Skeleton Soldier +1. Gained EXP +1! Current total kills: 1!] ... Ceng! Link swiftly pulled the Tang de out from the skeleton¡¯s body. The skeleton¡¯s body copsed and didn¡¯t move any longer. Link didn¡¯t look at it. He turned around and walked towards the next skeleton. This level of trash wasn¡¯t worth wasting even a little more of his time. His memories of his previous life told him that one could awaken a talent by killing a certain number of dark creatures within the first hour of the doomsday. The more he killed, the stronger the awakened talent! Skeleton Soldiers were just an appetizer for the doomsday. Their weakness was very obvious. To kill one, one just needed to extinguish the green [Soul Fire] in its head. It was just that people currently didn¡¯t know this yet. Even though his current body had little strength, it didn¡¯t take Link much effort to kill a Skeleton Soldier since he had lots ofbat experience from his previous life. He only needed to attack with the de once to kill a skeleton swiftly and cleanly! [Ding! Sessfully killed Skeleton Soldier +1. Gained EXP +1! Current total kills: 10!] ... [Ding! Sessfully killed Skeleton Soldier +1. Gained EXP +1! Current total kills: 36!] ... [Ding! Sessfully killed Skeleton Soldier +1. Gained EXP +1! Current total kills: 309!] In just 10 minutes, the number of Skeleton Soldiers Link killed reached an rming 309. The Skeleton Soldiers that everyone else in his school was afraid of and running away from were like Chinese cabbage in front of Link. He never needed a second sh! Hisbat experience was too rich, almost forming a conditioned reflex. In his eyes, the Skeleton Soldiers¡¯ actions were like children ying around. Link could predict the actions they would make in the next second with his eyes closed. He continued forward, chasing down the skeletons and killing them. [Ding! Sessfully killed Skeleton Soldier +1. Gained EXP +1! Current total kills: 647!] ... [Ding! Sessfully killed Skeleton Soldier +1. Gained EXP +1! Current total kills: 951!] ... [Ding! Sessfully killed Skeleton Soldier +1. Gained EXP +1! Current total kills: 1,814!] One hourter. When Link¡¯s forehead began to show sweat, a sweet voice finally appeared. [Ding! The elimination is over. The survivors are officially qualified for the [Doomsday Online] game!] [Ding! It is detected that you have achieved excellent results in the elimination trial. You have killed 1,814 skeleton soldiers, and you are rewarded the SSS talent: Supreme Blessing!] Chapter 2: Taboo! Great Void Taboo Master!

Chapter 2: Taboo! Great Void Taboo Master!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios SSS-grade talent, Supreme Blessing? Hearing this, the corners of Link¡¯s mouth curved up slightly. The grading system of talents, from low to high, was F, E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, and SSS¡ªnine grades in total. SSS-grade talents were the strongest! [Supreme Blessing] SSS: Able to increase the grades of any item or skill at a rate of 10-10,000. Three-minute cooldown. The talent had a very simple introduction, but it caused ripples to appear in Link¡¯s calm eyes. If this unbelievable effect appeared in his previous life, it would definitely cause the entire human alliance to be crazed and amazed by it. The previous hour, to be exact, was only the elimination trial before Doomsday truly descended. Big waves washed away the sand, leaving only gold behind; the weak should die. Only those who survived were qualified to enter the [Doomsday Online] game. Those who killed one or more skeletons during that hour would have a chance to obtain a talent. The more they killed, the higher the grade of the talent they could obtain. As for those who went into hiding and didn¡¯t dare to fight the skeletons, theypletely lost the opportunity to obtain a talent. On this road, where one could either improve or die, losing such an opportunity meant that they would forever be trampled upon by others. [Ding! Doomsday Online has officially started. Please choose your profession.] [Please note: Your chosen profession is extremely important. It will directly affect your future destiny. Please choose carefully.] In a trance, a nihilistic light screen floated in Link¡¯s eye. [Mage] [Fighter] [Assassin] [Archer] [Summoner] [Priest]... The current Doomsday age was more like an online game world, which was what the modern people were more familiar with. Everyone had different professions. Each profession had different roles andpletely different advancement paths. Killing monsters would give them experience, drop loot, obtain skills, and gain attribute points from leveling up. In a game, a character could revive after dying. However, a person would really be dead if they died in [Doomsday Online]. Link looked at the screen, and without much hesitation, directly selected [Summoner]! The reason was simply that he was a famous top-notch Summoner on Blue Star in his previous life! [Ding! The profession you have chosen is¡ªSummoner. The profession contract has been issued to your personal backpack!] [Ding! It has been detected that you have awakened the Void Summoner bloodline. Your profession contract has been changed to the ¡®Void Summoner Profession-Change Letter!¡¯] Personal backpacks were a tool that every [Doomsday Online] yer would have bound to them right from the start. It was used to ce special items. When a [Doomsday Online] yer died, the backpack would disappear while the items inside would drop. ... Link opened his backpack, finding a palm-sized scroll lying inside. Numerous mysterious runes were engraved on it. It was as if a person¡¯s soul would be sucked into it with just one look at it. ¡°Void Summoner...¡± Link¡¯s eyes wereplicated. In his previous life, this profession-change letter was the reason he had reached such a high state. It was an opportunity that he had grasped, bing the turning point of his life. However, he didn¡¯t expect that it would be his starting point in this lifetime! He only had to tear apart this scroll to be a [Void Summoner]¡ªan epic-grade profession! Countless people would be jealous of this... Originally, he would definitely tear it apart without any hesitation. But he now had another choice. Supreme Blessing! Reciting these two words in his heart, a dazzling light suddenly appeared in the dim space. The scroll in his hand gradually floated in the air. Link clearly saw the runes being erased bit by bit. New runes then formed on the scroll. At the same time, a very vast and mighty presence appeared in the world. [Ding! Blessing seeded!] [Ding! Congrattions on obtaining the ¡®Great Void Taboo Master Profession-Change Letter¡¯ (taboo)!] Link was taken aback. He then looked at this scene with incredulity in his eyes. The profession-change letter for ¡®Great Void Taboo Master?¡¯ A taboo-grade profession-change letter! This is definitely the well-deserved king amongst the summoner professions! In [Doomsday Online], the grading system for all items was the same: Normal, Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond, Epic, Legend, Myth, Super God, and Taboo! Taboo represented an existence that was above everything else. In his memories of his previous life, the Child of Heaven, who caused everyone to be jealous of him, became the number one summoner because of a Myth-grade ¡®Elemental Summoner Profession-Change Letter.¡¯ He could summon elemental spirits, which were almost indestructible, to help him. They were really terrifying. Now, he was holding an even stronger profession-change letter, which was of the Taboo Grade. [Great Void Taboo Master Profession-Change Letter]: When used, the user will be the supremely noble [Great Void Taboo Master]. User will have the ability to summon the most powerful beings from the various dimensions, which will listen to yourmand. Supreme Divine Envoy (Passive): Talent skill. Gain 50 points per attribute for every level up. Immeasurable Void (Passive): The creatures summoned by the master can ignore the summoning regtions and stay in the current dimension forever as long as enough energy is supplied to them. Godhood Ladder (Passive): The master will gain 30% of the current summons¡¯ attributes. Stackable. Looking at these descriptions, Link¡¯s eyes smiled. As expected of a Taboo-grade profession. It truly is the king of summoners! Although these were all passive skills, only Link knew how rmingly powerful they were. Normally, a [Doomsday Online] yer¡¯s attributes would each increase by three to five points per level up. However, a [Great Void Taboo Master]¡¯s attributes would increase by as much as 50 points each. This meant that one level for Link was at least ten times stronger than one level for a normal yer. Also, normal summoners¡¯ summoned creatures usually had a time limit. The stronger the creature, the shorter the time limit. Only when the summoner was strong enough to suppress the summoned creature would they be able to increase the duration of the time limit. Amongst all the professions, the deterrence power of summoners was the strongest in the early stage. This was because even the weakest summoned creature was much stronger than the yers that had only just started out. As the summoner increased in level and had higher attributes, their summoned creatures would also be stronger. No matter what kind of battle it was, a summoner who could summon a powerful creature would definitely be feared by everyone else. However.... once the summoned creature¡¯s time limit reached zero and the battle still hadn¡¯t ended, then disaster awaited the summoner! Therefore, an outstanding summoner would need strict control over the timing in summoning a creature! Summoners would die if they summoned their creatures too early. They would also die if they summoned their creatures toote! However, Link didn¡¯t need to worry about this. As long as he prepared enough sacrificial offerings to feed his summoned creatures, they would be able to stay in this dimension forever. They could stay long enough to fight any enemies until they despaired! Lastly, the summoned creatures¡¯ attributes would also increase his attributes. This ability was a bit overpowered! As everyone knows, although enemies found summoned creatures disgustingly strong, the summoned creatures would disappear as long as they killed the summoner. Summoners were usually very fragile and not experienced inbat themselves. However, with the passive skill [Godhood Ladder], Link¡¯s own attributes would also rise significantly once he summoned a powerful creature. If he really managed to summon a god next time and obtained 30% of the god¡¯s attributes, Link would be able to dominate the entire Blue Star just by himself. It must be said that this profession was really... too overpowered! ¡°I like it...¡± The corners of Link¡¯s mouth curved up slightly as he directly tore apart the scroll. Chapter 3: God Summoning! Descend of the Angel!

Chapter 3: God Summoning! Descend of the Angel!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios [Ding! Profession change seeded! Congrattions on bing a supremely noble Great Void Taboo Master!] [Ding! It has been detected that you are the first to be a Taboo-grade profession. You are rewarded the item ¡®Void Ring¡¯ (Myth)] [Void Ring]: A powerful item that aids the summoner to summon stronger creatures. Yo! There¡¯s even a gift pack? Link¡¯s eyes brightened, instantly grabbing the ring in his hand. ¡°Supreme Blessing!¡± Swoosh! A water-like golden light flooded out from Link¡¯s hand. The surrounding darkness instantly dissipated. Almost all of the eyes in Dragon City No. 1 Middle School were focused in Link¡¯s direction now. Arge and holy ray of light rose shot into the sky! ¡°What¡¯s... that?¡± ¡°Is it a god? God knows we are suffering and hase to save us!¡± Numerous people had tears in their eyes, kneeling and praying toward the light. [Ding! Blessing seeded!] [Ding! Congrattions on obtaining the Void God Summoning Ring (Taboo)!] Hearing the voice in his mind, Link softly breathed out. Another Taboo! [Void God Summoning Ring] Grade: Taboo Description: The Great Void Taboo Master¡¯s exclusive godly artifact. Non-droppable, permanently bound to yer. Additional skills: [Aura of the Gods]: The attributes of summoned creatures will be boosted by 30%. [Might of the Dominator]: All creatures summoned by summoner that are below Taboo-grade can be unconditionally controlled by the wearer. [Unison of Heaven and Earth]: All of the summoned creatures nearby will fuse with the wearer. The wearer will gain 1.5 times thebined attributes of the summoned creatures. Able to use the talents, abilities, skills, and bloodlines of the summoned creatures. Duration: 10 minutes! Cooldown: 24 hours! Tsk tsk tsk, this is really too overpowered. It¡¯s actually the [Great Void Taboo Master]¡¯s exclusive item! No wonder theyplement each other so well. Link calmed his mind, took a deep breath in, and ced the ring on his index finger. Then, he started his first summon. ¡°God from a farawaynd, heed mymand...¡± ¡°Transcend through the endless space ande before me!¡± ¡°Be my shield; be my spear!¡± He softly chanted, his voice like rolling tides, causing countless people¡¯s hearts to be shaken. Link violently lifted his head, and the ck gem-like [Void God Summoning Ring] on his index finger gave off a deep and profound presence. A blinding golden light erupted again. The entire Dragon City Middle School was shrouded in the holy light as if they hade to heaven. At this instance, all of the dark creatures stopped killing and roaring. Their [Soul Fire]s were rapidly distorting, sometimes expanding and sometimes shrinking... They dumbly stared in the direction where the light was most intense. The little intellect they had remaining told them that, at that ce... a being that was able to instill fear in them was being born! ... A certain corner in Dragon City No.1 Middle School. A girl with a slender figure was in the heat of a battle with two Skeleton Swordsmen. This creature only appeared after [Doomsday Online] officially started. They were stronger than Skeleton Soldiers! The girl was wearing Dragon City No. 1 Middle School¡¯s uniform. Her hair was icy-blue¡ªeven her pupils were filled with blueness. Her moves were very agile, having practiced Chinese boxing from a very young age. When Doomsday descended, she fought against the skeletons alongside her ssmates. After losing 30-plus people, she found out what the skeletons¡¯ fatal weakness was. She then started organizing the people around her to attack this weakness in a methodical manner. After the elimination trial ended, she had killed as many as 50 skeletons and obtained a B-grade talent¡ª[Frost Bloodline]¡ªgaining the ability to control frost. During the choosing of professions, she chose the [Fighter] profession. Combined with her talent ability, she actually obtained the hidden profession¡ª[Extreme Ice Combat Maiden]. It improved her talent¡¯s potential to A-grade. Now, facing the two Skeleton Swordsmen¡¯sbined assault, she was paced and calm, slowly seeking opportunities to kill them. After all, bare hands were unable to fight head-on with the Skeleton Swordsmen¡¯s sharp swords. However, she believed that it was only a matter of time before she killed these two Skeleton Swordsmen with her power. After that, she would definitely rise to prominence very quickly since she had an A-grade talent, which only one in 10,000 people had. She would then be a peak existence amongst humans in this apocalyptic world! ROAR! The two Skeleton Swordsmen seemed to lose their patience and started to attack madly. Broadswords that were as long as humans were swung around strongly and fiercely, sandwiching her from left and right. The swords were so fast that it caused her eyelids to jump uncontrobly. ¡°Oh no!¡± She knew that she was in trouble. In her current position, it was very difficult for her to escape these two attacks unscathed. Swoosh! Then, at this moment, a radiant golden light suddenly appeared in the sky, chasing away the surrounding darkness. The two Skeleton Swordsmen stopped their attacks instinctively and looked in the direction of the light, quivering in fear. ¡°Go die!¡± A sweet-sounding voice echoed, and the girl punched the Skeleton Swordsmen¡¯s [Soul Fire]s with her two fists that had wisps of frost surrounding them. p! The two Skeleton Swordsmen dropped to the ground. She finally had time to catch her breath and turned her gaze toward the sky. If it weren¡¯t because the two Skeleton Swordsmen were distracted by the light, she would be dead by now. ¡°That thing... What is it?¡± As if in a dream, she whispered, ¡°Why do I instinctively feel awe?¡± ... At the same time, in another location on the same campus. A tall young man in a tuxedo had a fist-sized fireball formed in his hand. He smashed the fireball into the head of a Skeleton Swordsman and killed it! He then looked at the sky solemnly and thought: Could it be... that there is a person who awakened an even stronger talent than mine? ... The golden light gradually dissipated, revealing a milky-white door in front of Link. Kacha! The surroundings seemed to go quiet; not a single sound could be heard. Thus, the sound of the door opening sounded extremely crisp and clear, attracting the attention of everyone nearby. Under the eyes of all those nearby, an extremely holy figure walked out of the door. Si! Instantly, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. They couldn¡¯t believe their eyes. They even suspected something was wrong with their eyes. Maybe we are just dreaming? If not, why... would we see such a being appear? An angel! They actually saw a real angel! That holy and beautiful face and jade-like white skin... Below the pair of beautiful and majestic eyebrows was a pair of golden pupils. She had a slender and attractive figure, which could be described as hot. However, nobody was able to have the slightest evil thoughts about her. It was as if even looking at her... was sphemy! What was most shocking was the pair of snow-white wings that slowly pped behind her. [Ding! Congrattions on summoning the Super God-grade summoning creature: Holy Angel¡ªYuna!] Yuna: (Super God) Race: The Holy Angel race¡ªtheir mission is to purify the world of dark creatures. Level: Stage One, Level 1 (The level limit is based on the level of the summoner) Strength: 70 Intelligence: 104 Constitution: 78 Agility: 97 Skills: [Holy Light Purification]: When used on friendly units, heals their injuries, cures their illnesses, and expels the negative statuses they carry. When used on the enemy, it causes [Burn] damage and increases damage dealt to dark creatures by 100%. [Holy Light Blessing]: Yuna imposes a shield on friendly units, which can resist all damage caused by creatures lower-leveled than her. Each release can resist damage up to ten times! Status: [Aura of the Gods] (All attributes +30%) Link looked at the Holy Angel in front of him with satisfaction on his face. Tsk tsk, quite outstanding... The Holy Angel walked out of the door, and the dazzling golden light behind her slowly dissipated. She¡ªholding a cross scepter in her hand¡ªwalked in front of Link, knelt down on one knee, and loudly said, ¡°Yuna pays her greetings, Master!¡± Swoosh! Once she said these words, all those who were watching this scene were shocked. This beautiful, holy, and seemingly powerful angel actually kneeled in front of a human being and called him master? This was too absurd! ¡°He... Who is he?¡± A person was dumbfounded by this, forgetting that dark creatures surrounded him. The next moment, his head was chopped off by a Skeleton Swordsman. ¡°Judging from his uniform, he¡¯s a student of this school too?¡± ¡°We actually have such a person hidden in our school? Why have I never heard of him before?¡± ¡°Stop mumbling. It¡¯s more important to think of a way to survive. The sword of that Skeleton Swordsman is about to reach your head!¡± The dark creatures paused for a moment, then started killing aimlessly again. The bloodiness in the campus was just like before; the screams never stopped. ¡°So much evil!¡± Yuna frowned, looking at the surrounding darkness with disgust. She then lowered her head toward Link and said, ¡°Master, please allow me to head into battle to judge and purify these evils!¡± Chapter 4: Epic-Grade Weapon [Red Sky]

Chapter 4: Epic-Grade Weapon [Red Sky]

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Hearing her firm words, Link was slightly surprised. Actively requesting to fight? This really is an angel of light. Her disgust for darkness is innate! ¡°Go ahead!¡± Link nodded. Just nice. I wanted to see the battle power of my first summoned creature too. ... Hearing Link¡¯s approval, Yuna¡¯s beautiful face showed a slight smile. She stood up, turned her head, and looked toward a Skeleton Swordsman, not far away, that was shing at a bunch of students. Her snow-white wings pped, and her figure disappeared like a phantom. Floating in mid-air and waving the cross scepter, golden light quickly gathered towards her from the surroundings. Yuna was like a small-sized sun. ¡°Holy Light Purification!¡± Yuna raised her scepter. The light surrounding her became even brighter, chasing away the surrounding darkness. It then descended upon the surrounding dark creatures like water. Instantly, all the people enveloped by the holy light felt a sense of warmth from inside their hearts. Panic, fear, depression, and all other negative feelings were appeased. The wounds on their bodies also miraculously recovered. They felt sofortable that they just wanted to lie down and sleep. However, this holy light was the most violent poison in the world for those dark creatures! ROAR¡ª ck smoke came out from their body as their bodies crazily struggled in the holy light. Their [Soul Fire]s trembled shakily, sometimes rushing out of their eyes, sometimes as dim as candlelights in the wind. It was as if they were being tortured in the evilest manner possible deep in their souls! [Ding! Sessfully killed Skeleton Soldier +1. Gained EXP +1!] [Ding! Sessfully killed Skeleton Swordsman +1. Gained EXP +10!] [Ding! Sessfully killed Skeleton Swordsman +1. Gained EXP +10!] ... In the next instance, notifications from killing dark creatures continuously sounded in Link¡¯s ears. Yuna¡¯s [Holy Light Purification] directly purified ten-plus dark creatures in the surrounding area. Link smiled in satisfaction at this scene, praising, ¡°This is even an AOE skill. Not bad!¡± At the side, the students and teachers saved were all dumbfounded by this scene. They couldn¡¯t believe that those dark creatures¡ªwhich could easily kill them¡ªwere actually killed by the angel in just one move. What was most important was that this angel was under themand of another human! ¡°Schoolmate, thank you for saving me. If it weren¡¯t because of you, I would¡¯ve...¡± A female student with messy clothes and a charming face came toward Link. Her face was full of tears, looking quite pitiful. She opened her arms, seemingly wanting to throw herself into Link¡¯s arms. Maybe, inside her heart, she thought that no man would be able to resist the hug of a woman like her. Unexpectedly, Link moved his feet, directly evading her. Hugging the air, the female student was slightly dazed. ¡°You are very smart. You¡¯ve realized that you can only survive better by taking refuge under someone powerful in this apocalyptic world!¡± At the side, Link¡¯s emotionless voice sounded. ¡°However, another rule in such a world is that no powerful people will be willing to protect a flower vase. No matter how pretty a vase is, it still needs to be of value if it wants to be protected!¡± ¡°Very coincidentally, women who have a habit of using their body as bargaining chips are the most worthless in such a world!¡± Maybe it was because he had continuously obtained things that satisfied him, but Link¡¯s current mood was quite good. He spoke more than he normally would, not stingy in giving these pitiful worms who hadn¡¯t realized the harshness of this apocalyptic world a lesson. The dazed female student was still standing at the spot as if she couldn¡¯t understand the meaning of Link¡¯s words in a short period of time. Link looked around, paying attention to the spots where the dark creatures were purified. A grey light appeared in his sight. Instantly, his mouth curled upward. He walked over, squatted down, and picked up the item enveloped in the grey light. [Ding! Congrattions on obtaining Skeleton Longsword (Iron)!] In [Doomsday Online], wild monsters had very low drop rates. Finding a dropped Iron-grade weapon after killing just ten-plus of the lowest level dark creatures showed that Link¡¯s luck was already quite good. It didn¡¯t matter that the weapon¡¯s grade was low. After all, Link had the [Supreme Blessing] talent! There wasn¡¯t a need to worry! ¡°Blessing...¡± Silently reciting the words in his mouth, arge mass of radiance instantly gathered. The other people nearby didn¡¯t understand what he was doing. A middle-aged man with arge belly tidied his messy hair and walked over smilingly. He said, ¡°Schoolmate, you are a student of our Dragon City No. 1 Middle School, right? The school is really proud to have a student like you!¡± Link ignored him. The sword in his hand was already fully covered by the radiance. The middle-aged man seemed to be a little embarrassed, but he didn¡¯t have a fit. Instead, he continued to speak in a nice manner, ¡°Schoolmate, you see... You have such a strong angel to help you now. Those creatures are all afraid of you! However... there are still many students and teachers trapped in dangerous situations right now. Can you send your angel to help us rescue them?¡± Hearing this, Link finally turned around and nced at him. Their eyes met. Link¡¯s mouth instantly curled into a cold smile. He had seen too many people in his previous life. In the apocalyptic world, humanity¡¯s true nature was expressed to the fullest. What kind of matter did he not encounter before? With just one look, he could deduce that this man¡¯s real aims weren¡¯t as righteous as he sounded. Boom! A red light descended from the sky,nding on the sword in Link¡¯s hand. A huge air current suddenly raged like a gust of wind. Link¡¯s clothes fluttered, and the people around were all pushed back. [Ding! Blessing seeded!] [Congrattions on obtaining the weapon, Red Sky (Epic)!] [Red Sky] Grade: Epic Introduction: A magical weapon handed down from ancient times.

Cause massive god-fire damage and inflicts a [Burn Out] effect. ... ¡°Good sword!¡± Link praised, making a vibrating motion with his wrist. An ancient-looking longsword appeared in the air. It was five-foot-long, and the edge looked sharp and cold. On the sword¡¯s body¡ªwhich was as thick as a palm¡ªthousands of red runes were meticulously engraved on it. A dim, red light flowed through the runes like they were the sword¡¯s meridians and blood. Casually waving the sword, the red light extended out from the tip of the sword. It looked extremely sharp as if it could cut apart anything! Seeing such a god-like weapon appear in Link¡¯s hand, the people nearby instantly swallowed mouthfuls of saliva. Quite a number of people even showed greed in their eyes. If this sword were theirs... How great would that be? Link turned around, looking at the middle-aged man who was standing very close to him. He insipidly asked, ¡°Sorry, what did you just say? I didn¡¯t hear clearly...¡± The middle-aged man could sense the coldness in Link¡¯s words. Cold sweat instantly poured out from his body. However, the vanity cultivated by the dominance and use of authority in his daily life made it impossible for him to back down from a student when being watched by so many people. He forced himself to say, ¡°Schoolmate, the greater one¡¯s ability, the greater their responsibility. You...¡± Swoosh! A heavy ancient sword was pressed onto his shoulder; its scorching edge was only a slight distance away from his carotid artery. Chapter 5: Holy Priest, Undead Knight

Chapter 5: Holy Priest, Undead Knight

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Sensing the fiery de that was too close forfort, the middle-aged man broke out into a cold sweat, and his lips went pale. He hurriedly said, ¡°Schoolmate, don¡¯t be impulsive... we can talk things over...¡± Link took a look at him. Then, his eyes suddenly focused, and he asked, ¡°You are Zhang Quansheng?¡± Zhang Quansheng was the Dean of Dragon City No. 1 Middle School. He was a greedy and lustful person. He yed with his authority adeptly andid his hands on the school¡¯s female students and teachers more than once. However, he had always escaped thew because of his powerful background. Zhang Quansheng was dazed for a while, then excitedly nodded and said, ¡°It¡¯s me... Schoolmate, it¡¯s good that you know who I am! Being the Dean of Dragon City Middle School, I must take up responsibility for the safety of the school¡¯s teachers and students at a time like this! However, we have limited manpower. We need to unite all the strength we have in order to defeat those monsters!¡± Hearing this, Link¡¯s mouth curled into a slight smile and asked, ¡°So?¡± ¡°Schoolmate, if you have to trust me! Hand over your sword and the angel to the school! The school will reasonably manage and distribute these resources. This way, the school will definitely be able to lead all of us to safety!¡± ¡°Hand them over to the school?¡± The mocking look in Link¡¯s eyes became even more obvious. ¡°Are you serious?¡± Hearing this, Zhang Quansheng¡¯s face went stiff. Displeased, he said, ¡°Schoolmate, all of us should let go of our selfishness and unite together in such a life and death crisis like this. The school has groomed you for so many years. Shouldn¡¯t you think of repaying the school, even for just a bit?¡± Linkughed slightly and said, ¡°I did...¡± Saying so, he applied more pressure on the sword [Red Sky]. The middle-aged man was instantly terrified, his limbs going cold and soft. If it wasn¡¯t because of the sharp sword on his neck, he would probably be unable to stand properly now. ¡°Link, don¡¯t be impulsive!¡± In the crowd, a female voice grabbed Link¡¯s attention. Link turned his head to take a look. Surprise suddenly filled his eyes. ¡°Teacher Yang?¡± This was his headteacher, Yang Xuerou. She was still quite young, about 25 to 26 years old. She looked quite pretty and had a kind heart. She was smart, generous, considerate, and a typical elder sister-like beauty. Link¡¯s parents died when he was still young. Therefore, he was a withdrawn person from a young age. It was only because of Yang Xuerou that his life gradually lit up. She gave Link a warmth that he had never felt before. His memories of her in the previous life were already very distant because she had died a cruel death on this campus right at the start of the apocalypse. She didn¡¯t die in the hands of the dark creatures but to humans. When the [Doomsday Online] game started, the world¡¯s order copsed. Allws and morals were lost. In the beginning, humans still had their most basic sanity and bottom line intact. However, when everyone¡¯s mental spirit became highly tensed up and needed to fight for their lives at any moment, many people became the craziest beasts in this world. The previous female survivors became a channel for these scums to vent. Since the women were soft and weak, they could satisfy their animal desires easily. These women¡¯s screams and yells would only stimte the most sensitive points in these scum¡¯s hearts deeply. Yang Xuerou was renowned because she was the most beautiful teacher in Dragon City. Thus, she became one of the first victims to suffer such a fate. In the end, to preserve her innocence, she gave her all into finding a chance to suicide by banging her head into a wall, sessfully killing herself. This Zhang Quansheng was one of the culprits for her death. This incident also became the key to opening the door of killing for the [Asura Summoner]¡ªa figure who instilled fear in the people of his previous life. The reason that Link was addressed as [Asura Summoner] had nothing to do with his profession. This name was a result of the massive massacres hemitted! He had no power or influence. He didn¡¯t have a strong background in the Alliance, nor did he have huge amounts of resources to strengthen himself. What caused people to be surprised was that he was like a lone wolf walking along the edge of hell, forcefully rising to prominence amongst the countless [Doomsday Online] yers by leaving a blood path in his wake. He became a pinnacle existence that countless people could only look up to. After ten years of killing, he had long ago be an asura. In his eyes, human lives really had no value. To him, even the dark creatures¡¯ lives had more value than human lives! After all, the dark creatures could be tamed through certain methods and would fully listen to hismands afterward. As for humans... no matter how close they were to each other, there was always the probability of betraying each other. Link took a look at Zhang Quansheng, then took a look at Yang Xuerou¡ªwho was looking at him earnestly, and an absurd-like smile appeared in his eyes. To Link, it seemed so absurd that Yang Xuerou was speaking up for Zhang Quansheng. Even though many ugly and disgusting things hadn¡¯t happened in this lifetime yet, Link wasn¡¯t preparing to reason with them. ... He looked at Yang Xuerou, and the sword made a beautiful arc in the air. A huge head flew into the sky. It belonged to Zhang Quansheng. No blood sttered out because [Red Sky]¡¯s [Burn Out] effect directly roasted the body into a charred corpse, which quickly turned into ashes. ... ¡°AH¡ª¡± The faces of those present all showed horror and shock. They never thought that Link would really choose to kill Zhang Quansheng. ¡°Good!¡± A whileter, someone suddenly cheered and said, ¡°I have disliked that old tortoise for a long time. He normally acts so arrogantly. He didn¡¯t behave like a teacher at all and also molested the female students! He deserved to die...¡± ¡°Exactly! In the years that he was dean, he never did anything good. However, he did all sorts of disgusting things. He should have died long ago!¡± ¡°Well done. If it were me, I would have killed him too!¡± ... ¡°Link... you!¡± Yang Xuerou covered her mouth, looking at this scene in disbelief. Link slowly walked over to her, his eyes insipid. ¡°He deserved to die!¡± He didn¡¯t say why, but Yang Xuerou seemed to understand Link¡¯s emotions very easily when she looked into his eyes. Zhang Quansheng was a lustful person. He had coveted Yang Xuerou for a very long time. Yang Xuerou was well aware of this, and she herself severely disliked him too. She asked Link to stop because she had yet to jump out from the framework of a society ruled byws. To her, killing a person would bring big trouble to the killer. Link was her student; she didn¡¯t wish for Link to pay a price for a moment of impulsiveness. It wasn¡¯t worth it! Now, looking into Link¡¯s insipid eyes, she was unable to speak the many words of exhortation she had in her heart. Her instincts told her that it was better to choose to believe in Link. ... Looking at Yang Xuerou, Link suddenly thought of a question. ¡°Teacher Yang, what¡¯s your profession?¡± By now, [Doomsday Online] had officially started. All those who still survived would have their own attribute screen. Link taught Yang Xuerou how to open up her attribute screen and how to share it with him. Hm? Link¡¯s eyes lit up. On Yang Xuerou¡¯s attribute screen, the words [Holy Priest] were written in the profession column! The [Holy Priest] profession was a branch of the [Priest] profession. It was one of the hidden professions with an extremely high grade! [Holy Priest] was a Legend-grade profession! A [Holy Priest] possessed very powerful healing abilities. At higher levels, they even had a chance of awakening an incredible skill¡ª[Greater Resurrection Skill]! It could revive the dead by reversing and distorting the flow of Yin and Yang. Just this skill alone was enough to cause amotion in the entire human alliance. Link never expected that this young teacher¡ªwho had died a cruel death early in his previous life¡ªactually had such an overpowered profession. If she lived on, she would definitely hold one of the Supreme 12 Seats of the human alliance, which would be created in the years toe. Link took a deep breath and instructed her with a solemn expression, ¡°Teacher Yang, never let anyone else know what your profession is from now on, no matter how close they are to you!¡± ¡°Why?¡± Yang Xuerou was puzzled. Link assertively said, ¡°No why! Just do as I say!¡± He was well aware of the terrifying consequences that would follow once others knew of Yang Xuerou¡¯s profession. Those top powers would do everything they could to obtain her. In this apocalyptic world, human lives were the most worthless. The most valuable thing... was also human lives! Hearing his words, Yang Xuerou became slightly dazed. Her impression of Link was that he was a more introverted kind of boy. He didn¡¯t like to talk and was not good at interacting, but was so sensible for his age that it caused others to feel heart pain for him. She never thought that he would say these kinds of words to her in this kind of tone. It felt really unfamiliar to her. After a brief silence, Yang Xuerou smiled and said, ¡°Okay!¡± She still decided to believe in Link. ROAR¡ª Then, a sky-shaking roar came from the teaching building beside them at that moment. A headless horseman riding a tall horse dashed out from the three-story-tall building andnded in front of them. It was an Undead Knight¡ªa stage-two dark creature! Chapter 6: Luxurious Attributes

Chapter 6: Luxurious Attributes

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Undead Knights, amongst the many dark creatures that appeared in the early days of [Doomsday Online], were absolutely in the ranks of the elite. To humankind that had yet to recover from the reality of Doomsday arriving, Undead Knights holding stage-two abilities virtually possessed catastrophic lethality. Look, once it appeared, everyone present was stunned. ¡°This thing... what is it?¡± ¡°Seems like an ancient knight, but why is his horse a skeleton?¡± ¡°Can a dead horse also run so fast? It¡¯s literally unscientific...¡± ¡°Fool, you¡¯re still talking about science at this point. Why don¡¯t you use science to exin to me how those skeletons earlier came about?¡± Pant! Just when everyone was makingments, the ghost fire in that tall and big skeleton horse¡¯s pupils abruptly red. The Undead Knight lifted its head, its gazending on Link, as well as the Angel Yuna beside him. Instincts told it that Link was a great threat to it! The holy aura around the angel all the more made it feel genuinely disgusted and repulsed. It needed to defeat them first! Its legs squeezed the skeleton horse¡¯s abdomen. The skeleton horse instantly turned its body and came charging toward the crowd. ¡°Run quickly! It¡¯sing!¡± This skeleton horse was a good two meters tall, very healthy and strong. When it started galloping, its speed was fast as lightning. The crowd fled in all directions at once. No one dared to stand in the way of this Undead Knight, even just for a moment. ¡°Link, run!¡± Pale with fear, Yang Xuerou hurriedly grabbed Link¡¯s arm and wanted to drag him away. However, she realized that Link¡¯s figure was as stable as a rock. He did not budge an inch. ¡°You?¡± Yang Xuerou turned her head with a surprised and bewildered look and happened to meet Link¡¯s confident gaze that came with a faint smile. ¡°A stage-two dark creature. Yuna, do you dare to fight it?¡± He was very calm, as if he hadn¡¯t noticed that the Undead Knight was charging over. Yuna gripped the scepter in her hand tightly. As perseverance showed on her gorgeous face, she said, ¡°I will not hesitate to expel darkness!¡± With that, her snow-white wings shook once. Her figure turned into a phantom and charged toward the Undead Knight. Boom! Two figures¡ªone ck and one white¡ªcollided, instantly producing an extremely immense shockwave that swept outward. The surrounding ground cracked, and a dense spiderweb pattern appeared. In the center, radiance and darkness were intertwined. The powerful energy and aura wreaked havoc within a dozen meters, pushing everyone who was spectating from a distance to the ground. Link remained unmoved in the same spot, watching the center of the battleground, and nodded inwardly. ¡°She¡¯s only stage-one and Level 1 but is able to hold her own against a stage-two Undead Knight. A Super God-grade summoned creature indeed!¡± In [Doomsday Online], the effect of level was of vital importance. The disparity in strength was not only reflected in the attributes. Every advancement to the next stage would result in a qualitative change. In general, it was impossible for a stage-one to receive the attack of a stage-two, even if it was just one strike! However, Yuna was currently fighting with that Undead Knight head-on and was not in a disadvantageous position at all. If she were a human, she would be considered an invinciblebat genius. How could a cross-ranking battle be so easy? Moreover, she was directly fighting against an opponent one big stage ahead of her. This was virtually inconceivable! ¡°Holy Light Purification!¡± In the distance, Yuna¡¯s loud and spirited voice sounded. The scepter in her hand suddenly lengthened by several feet, turning from a short scepter into a long scepter. Inexhaustible Holy Light gathered from all directions and condensed into a beam of light, descending towards the Undead Knight. Roar! The Undead Knight roared with a sinister countenance, lifted the spear in its hand, and pointed it to the sky. It attempted to resist the Holy Light attack with this. But how could blocking it be possible? Holy Light was intangible. It was a pure energy attack. Moreover, it severely suppressed dark creatures. At the exact moment the attacknded, it ignited the Undead Knight¡¯s body. Billowing dark smoke surged towards the sky, mingling with the Undead Knight¡¯s unwilling snarl. It was evident that the speed in which Yuna¡¯s Holy Light was purifying the Undead Knight was much slower than that when it was purifying the Skeleton Swordsmen earlier. Previously, the Skeleton Swordsmen had absolutely no resistance under the Holy Light. They had disintegrated almost instantly. But right now, even as it was tightly huddled up on the horse due to being suppressed by the Holy Light, the Undead Knight still had strength to struggle. Swoosh! It abruptly lifted its head, and the [Soul-fire] within the pupils of the skeleton horse beneath it red. The Undead Knight actually briefly broke free of [Holy Light Purification]¡¯s suppression on it and charged in the direction of Link and Yang Xuerou. Approaching menacingly, its spear was pointed directly at Link¡¯s forehead. Link¡¯s countenance remained unchanged; his gaze still calm as he stepped forward with [Red Sky] in hand. Lift his arm, swing the sword! A scorching hot current suddenly converged in Link¡¯s right hand that was holding the sword. All the runes on [Red Sky] were lit up at once. A scarlet glow burst brightly like a roaring me illuminating the sky. Red Sky Sword Energy! A two-meter-long ming-red sword energy left his hand, and the surrounding temperature suddenly rose. That stream of sharpness was so fiery and swift. In the blink of an eye, it met the spear that the Undead Knight had thrust. Crack! With a light cracking sound, the spear broke. The ming-red sword energy remained unabated. As the Undead Knight was stunned, the sword energy directly prated its skull. Boom! mes shot up and directly engulfed the Undead Knight¡¯s entire body. Even the skeleton horse beneath it was not spared! In a brief period of several breaths, the Undead Knight was annihted! [Ding! Sessfully killed stage-two Undead Knight +1. Gained EXP+100] [Ding! As you have crossed levels to kill an enemy, gain an additional 100% EXP!] Then, two rays of light unexpectedly bloomed in Link and Yuna¡¯s pupils. [Ding! Congrattions on sessfully leveling up to Stage One, Level 4!] [Ding! Your summoned creature, stage-one Angel Yuna, has advanced to Stage One, Level 3!] The corners of Link¡¯s mouth curved up slightly. Sure enough, cross-level kills still gave more EXP! His eyes shifted, and he opened his own attribute screen. Name: Link Profession: Great Void Taboo Master [Taboo] Race: Human Level: Stage one, Level 4 Strength: 717 Intelligence: 545 Constitution: 689 Agility: 667 Equipment: Red Sky [Epic] Skill: Void Summoning Spell, Red Sky God me, Unison of Heaven and Earth Talent: Supreme Blessing [SSS-grade] Summoned creature: Holy Angel [Super God] Status: Godhood Ladder [from summoned creature] (Gained 30% of the current summoned creature¡¯s attributes bonus) (PS: Attributes = basic attributes+equipment attribute bonus+summoned creature¡¯s attribute bonus) Looking at this attribute screen that could be said to be luxurious, the corners of Link¡¯s lips unconsciously lifted. The basic attributes of this body were not high. Other than [Intelligence]¡ªwhich had perhaps reached 40 points because of his rebirth¡ªeverything else was at around 20 points. This also fit the initial attributes of a normal person. However... his profession, [Great Void Taboo Master], was Taboo-grade. For every level he advanced, he gained a full 50 bonus points for each attribute. He had advanced from Stage One, Level 1 to Stage One, Level 4. These three levels had added 150 bonus points to each of his attributes. In addition, his Epic-grade weapon¡ª[Red Sky]¡¯s amplification for his respective attributes was also very high. Moreover, a passive skill named [Red Sky Sword Intent] had boosted three of his basic attributes¡ª[Strength], [Constitution], and [Agility]¡ªby an additional 100%. With this, his attributes were very frightening! For ordinary [Doomsday Online] yers, their attributes would not exceed 10, even at Stage One, Level 10. His present ability had surpassed the others by more than ten times. Furthermore, as his level became higher and higher, the disparity between him and others would be increasingly greater. This¡ªwas the terrifying aspect of Taboo-grade professions. Chapter 7: Holy Heart è·¯ Invigorating Spell

Chapter 7: Holy Heart ¡¤ Invigorating Spell

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Other than his basic attributes and equipment bonus, another portion of his attributes came from the [Great Void Taboo Master]¡¯s passive skill¡ªGodhood Ladder! This passive skill allowed Link to gain 30% of his current summoned creature¡¯s attributes¡ªwhich was Yuna¡ªas a bonus. After Link had killed the Undead Knight, Yuna gained quite an amount of EXP, therebypleting her level-up. Yuna. Race: The Holy Angel race¡ªtheir mission is to purify the world of dark creatures. Grade: Super God Level: Stage One, Level 3 Strength: 147 Intelligence: 172 Constitution: 152 Agility: 167 Skills: [Holy Light Purification]: When used on friendly units, heals their injuries, cures their illnesses, and expels the negative statuses they carry. When used on the enemy, it causes [Burn] damage and increases damage dealt to dark creatures by 100%. [Holy Light Blessing]: Yuna imposes a shield on friendly units, which can resist all damage caused by creatures lower-leveled than her. Each release can resist damage up to ten times! Status: [Aura of the Gods] (All attributes +30%) Yuna was a Super God-grade summoned creature. For every level she advanced, she would gain a bonus 40 points to each attribute. Just presently, it was enough to gain more than 40 bonus points to each attribute per level-up. This was already equivalent to the attribute growth of seven or eight levels for ordinary [Doomsday Online] yers. Virtually absurd! The corner of Link¡¯s mouth curled as he self-mockingly said, ¡°Tsk tsk... I don¡¯t even know whether I¡¯m still considered a normal Summoner!¡± Even when looking at his past life, he had never seen any Summoner whose personal attributes were so much stronger than that of their summoned creatures. In this way, the weakest link for Summoners was also non-existent to Link. If someone believed that bypassing the summoned creature and directly attacking and killing Link would win them the battle in the future, then reality would teach them what was known as cruelty! At first nce, currently, Yuna¡¯s attributes were much lower than that of Link, but Link understood that Yuna¡¯s attributes could grow. Once she reached Stage Two, Stage Three, or even higher... Even alone, she would be able to ward off the majority of the formidable enemies in this world for Link. By then, the attribute bonuses that she provided to Link would also be even more plentiful. ... ¡°Link, look!¡± Beside him, Yang Xuerou suddenly pointed to the teaching building right ahead with an anxious look. Link lifted his head to look over and shockingly found that an Undead Knight was leading a team of Skeleton Swordsmen to ughter the students inside the school. At present, the students had just received their professions¡¯ strength. The majority of them had not even figured out their own profession. Often, only the joint efforts of four to five people could tackle a Skeleton Swordsman. Against an Undead Knight, they stood no chance at all. Such were indeed the facts too. A charge by an Undead Knight could leave a crowd of people severely injured. With a thrust of its spear, it would reap one fresh life. Within a mere half a minute¡¯s time, that Undead Knight made two trips back and forth, already harvesting a dozen students¡¯ lives. Awful shrieks repeatedly sounded inside the teaching building, adding a few more hints of terror to this bloody scene. Yang Xuerou looked at Link and asked, ¡°Link, can you save them?¡± She had asked whether he could or not, and not directly begging Link to save them because those dark creatures that had upied the teaching building were too frightening. An ordinary person would be as good as dead once they encountered them. Even though Link appeared to be powerful, Yang Xuerou wasn¡¯t confident whether he would be able to escape unscathed from the terrifying encirclement of those dark creatures. Persuading another person to take risks for some people¡¯s lives was very unfair itself. Yang Xuerou was very kind, but she did notck reason. The fact she was able to maintain such thinking in such a moment where doomsday had arrived really made Link very surprised. Link nodded and said, ¡°I can!¡± Before the joy in Yang Xuerou¡¯s eyes emerged, Link went on coolly, ¡°But I have no obligation to save them! Teacher, doomsday has arrived. The rules of this world have be entirely different from before! You can continue to remain kind, but you have to learn to be cold-blooded! Kindness will put you in a crisis, but cold-bloodedness can save your life in a critical moment!¡± Listening to Link¡¯s serious words, Yang Xuerou was stunned. Indeed, the present her could notpletely understand Link¡¯s words, but she did not say anything more either. She only bowed her head. Link looked at her. The corner of his lips lifted all of a sudden, and he said, ¡°However, they¡¯re very lucky. I happen to need the lives of those dark creatures to strengthen myself!¡± ¡°Follow me closely. I will teach you some simple application of abilities. Try your best to get some assists to pick up some EXP...¡± With that, he held [Red Sky] and walked toward the teaching building step by step. Behind him, Angel Yuna fluttered her wings and followed. Yang Xuerou faltered for a moment before her eyes curled up into a smile, and she followed him with quick steps. ... The corridor that was originally considered rather spacious was already full of bodies now. Fresh blood started flowing down from an unknown ce. Blood was everywhere¡ªon the handrails and the stairs. Not a single clean stepping ground could be seen. A strong metallic scent filled the entire space, making one sick to the stomach. In the first moment Yang Xuerou stepped into this teaching building, her pretty face had already be ghastly pale. Link took a nce at her and said nonchntly, ¡°Priests have a basic skill called [Invigorating Spell]. It can rejuvenate a human body¡¯s energy spirit in a short time and allow a sleepy, exhausted person to be full of spirit!¡± ¡°Given your profession talent, there should be a simr enhanced edition of the skill... Close your eyes and properly contemte the ability inside your body...¡± As it goes, all roads lead to Rome. Although Link was a Summoner in his previous life, he had reached a certain height and met too many powerhouses and enemies. He essentially knew the various professions¡¯ abilities like the back of his hand. He wasn¡¯t all-rounded, but he would have no problem guiding a newbie like Yang Xuerou. For the skills of each profession in [Doomsday Online], other than making use of skill books to master them directly, one could also gain them through one¡¯s ownprehension. More often than not, the skills that came from one¡¯s ownprehension would fit one better than the skills learned from skill books. ¡°I feel it... a warm force...¡± Yang Xuerou was indeed very talented. Under Link¡¯s brief guidance, she very quickly learned to employ the power inside her body. A milky white ray then spread out from within her. A warm aura enveloped the duo. Link instantly felt much more energetic. [Ding! You have received the blessing effect of Holy Heart ¡¤ Invigorating Spell. Injuries healed, and the speed of vigor restoration is increased by 50%. Duration: 30 minutes!] Ha, it was indeed an enhanced edition? On top of restoring vigor, it can even speed up the healing of injuries. This skill is virtually an endurance artifact in battles! Most importantly, the duration is a full 30 minutes. For ordinary Priests, the [Invigorating Spell] they cast can onlyst about ten minutes. The effects are also nothing close to this. ¡°How do you feel?¡± Link asked with a smile. ¡°Much better! It feels like I¡¯ve slept as long as I like!¡± A speck of surprise shed across Yang Xuerou¡¯s eyes. Such an inconceivable force being employed from her own hand literally felt like a dream. Chapter 8: Demon Sealing Arrow Luo Xingyao

Chapter 8: Demon Sealing Arrow Luo Xingyao

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Angel Yuna led the way. Link and Yang Xuerou appeared extremelyfortable. If it weren¡¯t for the broken limbs scattered all over the ground, one might have thought they were shopping. Before Doomsday arrived, sses were taking ce at Dragon City No. 1 Middle School. The poption of this teaching building was horribly dense. Perhaps that was the reason why there were more dark creatures than other emptier campuses. ... There was non-stop howling. asionally, one could hear ear-piercing screams from upstairs and downstairs. They were mostly from the girls. They were born with weak bodies. Coupled with indulgent lifestyles, they were unable to do anything except scream when faced with danger. They couldn¡¯t even escape. It was a pity they were trapped in such a situation. Unless they were trained in the Lion Roar and could stun dark creatures, they could only scream their lungs out! Oh, no! Their screams still served some purpose. The screams could attract more dark creatures toe and tear them apart! ... ¡°Link, look!¡± They hade to the window of a ssroom on the second floor. They looked in through the window. More than ten corpses were lying on the ground. One could no longer imagine how they looked when they were alive. There was blood everywhere. It had already coagted, and the ground was stained ck. The air was also filled with a disgusting stench. In the corner, a boy and a girl were holding each other, trembling. ¡°Don¡¯t kill us, don¡¯t kill us...¡± The couple¡¯s eyes were expressionless. It seemed they were terror-stricken. They hugged each other tightly like a drowning person clutching straw. The Skeleton Swordsman didn¡¯t care about their begs for mercy. It grinned widely, baring its fangs. It raised its long sword and shed straight down. The sh would cut off their heads cleanly. Upon seeing this, the couple¡¯s eyes were suddenly filled with despair and fear. They couldn¡¯t even scream. It was as if something was strangling them. ¡°Link!¡± Yang Xuerou appeared anxious as she grabbed Link¡¯s sleeve. She was speechless. Link grabbed her hand and shook his head. ¡°It¡¯s okay!¡± As he said that, they could hear the wind gush. An arrow enveloped with blue energy shot through the window at the other end of the ssroom and pierced straight through the Skeleton Swordsman¡¯s forehead. The Skeleton Swordsman sensed danger and lifted its head immediately. However, it was toote! The arrow was extremely fast and powerful. In the blink of an eye, it went through the Skeleton¡¯s forehead and prated its [Soul Fire]. Patter! The Skeleton Swordsman fell to the ground with a thump. The couple was shocked by the unexpected turn of events. When they recovered from their surprise, they quickly dashed for the exit. When she saw them in the corridor, Yang Xuerou subconsciously asked, ¡°Are you alright...¡± Both of them were momentarily stunned. It seemed they didn¡¯t expect to see their teacher here. However, this was just for a moment. Without saying a thing, they ran straight toward the staircase. Growl! At that moment, a group of Skeleton Swordsmen appeared nearby. They had sensed Link and his party and charged toward them, roaring. They shed frantically with their longswords. Without waiting for Link to say anything, Angel Yuna humphed and greeted them with her wings. A holy light shone as she swung her cross scepter like a club. Every swing that hit the Skeleton Swordsmen was like the zing sun¡¯s rays on residual frost, purifying and eroding them. In what seemed like the time it took to take a breath, more than ten Skeleton Swordsmen turned into ashes. The leveled-up Yuna dealt with these low-leveled dark creatures like cutting vegetables. ... Seeing such a scene, Yang Xuerou calmed down. She turned around and found an amused Link staring at the scene in the ssroom. ¡°Link, what are you looking at?¡± She followed his gaze but could only see a broken hole in the window at the other end of the ssroom. ¡°Demon Sealing Arrow...¡± Link mumbled as the corners of his mouth curved up. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect to meet that haughtyss here!¡± Demon Sealing Arrow Luo Xingyao, one of the top ten masters in the former Top 100 Human Alliance League. The [Archer] profession was the well-deserved king among all professions. In that era, the [Archer] profession was closely associated with the name ¡®Luo Xingyao.¡¯ Although she was female, nobody dared to underestimate her ability. There were countless masters in the Human Alliance. Yet, eight or nine out of ten didn¡¯t dare to face Luo Xingyao¡¯s arrows head-on. Her style was extraordinary, and her whereabouts were ethereal. She often wore a cold expression as if nothing could affect her. Only Link knew that thatss was haughty but warm-hearted. ... ¡°Who?¡± Yang Xuerou didn¡¯t understand. ¡°Nothing!¡± Link shook his head, turned around, and asked, ¡°Today... Is something big going on in the school?¡± Yang Xuerou paused, thought for a while, then said, ¡°The National Mathematics Competition ended some time ago. Our school took first ce. If I remember correctly, today should be the awards ceremony!¡± ¡°So, that¡¯s why...¡± Link came to a sudden realization. He was utterly indifferent to these things. ¡°What is it?¡± ¡°Most of the dark creatures in this building are gathered upstairs. They should be attracted by the dense number of people on the top floor!¡± The top floor of this teaching building was thergest conference room in Dragon City No. 1 Middle School. It was able to amodate 2,000 people! The whole school¡¯s teachers and students would gather there for the first ss every year. ¡°What?¡± Yang Xuerou¡¯s expression changed. ¡°Isn¡¯t it very dangerous up there, then? The two students from just now went upstairs as well!¡± Link pouted and said, ¡°There are a lot of people on the top floor, and there is sufficient security. It shouldn¡¯t be too bad... However, I can¡¯t assure the safety of the two students who just went up!¡± Although he said so, Link knew that it was almost impossible for them to get to the top floor via the staircase with this number of dark creatures around. ¡°Ah¡ª¡± Just as he thought that, they heard two sharp screams from above them. Yang Xuerou turned pale. She could tell that the screams belonged to the two students. Guilt could be seen on her face. She should have stopped them. If she had, nothing would have happened then! Link knew what she was thinking. Heforted her and said, ¡°Everyone has their own fate. There¡¯s not much you can do about it, nor does it have anything to do with you...¡± Yang Xuerou shook her head. It was obvious she couldn¡¯t ept what Link said. Link sighed in his heart. It was not simple for a kind-hearted person to learn how to be cold-hearted. But after thinking carefully, if Yang Xuerou was not sopassionate, she wouldn¡¯t stand a chance of bing a legendary Holy Priest! ¡°Alright, stop thinking!¡± He patted her shoulder and said, ¡°Let¡¯s go up. I hope they can hold on until we arrive!¡± ... The number of corpses on every level increased as they went up. In some corners, the corpses were stacked up like mountains. Some corpses were torn apart by dark creatures; others were trampled to death. Everyone climbed up the staircase for their lives. In order to avoid the killing demons behind them, they forgot the demons in their hearts. This was human nature during Doomsday. As Link had expected, the number of dark creatures upstairs was several times more. When the dark creatures saw Link and his party, they madly charged toward them. ¡°Holy Light Purification!¡± Yuna raised her staff high, and a holy ray baptized the surrounding like the sun¡¯s rays. The undifferentiated ranged attack caused all the dark creatures within ten meters of the surrounding area to erode. [Ding! Sessfully killed Skeleton Soldier +1. Gained EXP +1] ... [Ding! Sessfully killed Skeleton Swordsman +1. Gained EXP +10] [Ding! Sessfully killed Skeleton Swordsman +1. Gained EXP +10] ... Chapter 9: Killed By The Sword In A Split Second

Chapter 9: Killed By The Sword In A Split Second

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Yuna¡¯s [Holy Light Purification] was a cmity of epic proportions to this group of dark creatures. After all the dark creatures in the immediate vicinity were wiped out in an instant, the rest that was further away seemed to have developed an instinctual fear and dared note any closer. Unfortunately, Link wouldn¡¯t let them off even if they didn¡¯t attack. Yuna¡¯s wings vibrated, and she moved at a shocking speed. No dark creature could escape her pursuit. [Ding! Your summoned Holy Angel has advanced to Level 4!] After clearing all the dark creatures on the third floor, Yuna¡¯s EXP bar had filled up, and she leveled up to Level 4. Her stats had increased again! Yang Xuerou, who was with her, also gained a lot of EXP due to the buff she had cast on Link. She had gone directly from Level 1 to Level 4! Her level was now the same as Link! Link nced at his EXP bar subconsciously. It¡¯s 85%! Tsk, there are at least 100 dark creatures on this level, which is worth 1,000 EXP at least. If it were someone else, they would have no problem gaining three levels at one go. However, I can¡¯t even get to the next level! A Taboo-grade profession is strong, but it really is a pain in the a*s to level up. However, I get ten times the benefitspared to others when I gain a level. The world is still fair! ... Soon, everyone came to the fourth floor. This floor was mostly dance ssrooms and indoor sports fields. The terrain was empty. When [Doomsday Online] started, these ces happened to be unused. Hence, there were not many corpses on the ground. There were only some unlucky people who were trampled to death by the crowd. At a nce, one could see five stage-two Undead Knights wandering around. There were also more than 20 Skeleton Swordsmen and a bunch of Skeleton Soldiers. There was no need for further words. They would fight whatever they encountered. Yuna was able to win against an Undead Knight easily at Level 1. Now that she was at Level 4, she could take three on at the same time with no trouble at all. Thest remaining Undead Knight led the Skeleton Swordsmen and Skeleton Soldiers under itsmand and charged toward Link fiercely. The Undead Knight and the skeleton horse under it were nearly three meters tall together. Such arge and burly body charged at extreme speed, full of deterrence. If it were an ordinary person, their limbs would probably go weak, and they might not even be able to dodge the attack. Yang Xuerou turned pale. She instinctively wanted to grab Link¡¯s sleeve for a sense of security, but she withdrew her palms rationally. In her heart, she said, I can¡¯t obstruct him! Link looked at this scene calmly and waited until the Undead Knight charged forward before taking any action. He took a step forward, pressed his palm on the sword¡¯s hilt, and yanked the sword out of its sheath. The fiery-red sword glowed, and its target was the skeletal horse¡¯s head! ... In a ssroom in Dragon City No.1 Middle School¡¯sboratory building. A tall and beautiful girl was staring at the opposite teaching building. Her eyes were sharp and bright. She was unforgettable! Beside her, a muscr man with a sad face asked, ¡°How¡¯s it going, Xingyao?¡± ¡°Not too optimistic!¡± Luo Xingyao shook her head, frowned, and said solemnly, ¡°They are almost all dead!¡± ¡°Why?¡± The person was surprised. ¡°There are so many people in the conference room, yet only a few have awakened abilities?¡± Luo Xingyao said, ¡°There are some, but not enough!¡± ¡°That means we can¡¯t depend on them to rescue us after they get themselves out of trouble!¡± The man appeared dejected. Both of them were Awakened and had exceptionally good abilities. If one was able to solo kill a Skeleton Swordsman, they were definitely talented. However, they couldn¡¯t do much against the dark creatures that seemed to be appearing without end with their tiny bit of ability. Now, they were trapped in thisboratory building and barely able to protect themselves. They had thought that if they held on, they would be saved when therge group of people in the conference room broke free. It now appeared that the reality was much crueler. The people they thought would be their saviors were now barely able to protect themselves. ¡°Unless there is someone who is stronger than the monster knight...¡± Luo Xingyao muttered. However, she knew that it was impossible as soon as she said this. No matter how strong an individual was, what could they do in front of an army of dark creatures? Her awakened talent was very strong, and she could easily kill most of the dark creatures that were ravaging the campus today. However, she had to escape once she encountered the knight that was on the skeleton horse! It was simply too strong! Its speed and charging force were so immense that it was practically a small tank. She had seen an Undead Knight smash through three to five concrete walls in session, yet its power remained unabated. It was so strong that people didn¡¯t even harbor the thought of resisting. Dragon City No. 1 Middle School had many such beings. There were more than ten in the conference room on the opposite building¡¯s top floor. One was at least four meters tall. Just looking at it was enough to make one¡¯s scalp go numb with fear. In just a few charges, no fewer than 400 people in the conference room were already dead. ¡°Do we... really have to start trying to escape?¡± said the muscr man, depressed. Luo Xingyao didn¡¯t respond. She just looked straight at the other side. At this moment, she appeared surprised. She suddenly put her hands on the window sill and leaned forward. She stared at the opposite teaching building¡¯s fourth floor unblinkingly as her breathing sped up. A slight figure was fighting an Undead Knight head-on! ... Boom! The bones of the skeleton horse were as hard as rock; it was also powerful enough to easily kill an elephant with a high-speed charge. Under the young man¡¯s sword, it looked extremely weak. Crack! Its skull cracked, and Red Sky instantly prated the skeleton horse¡¯s head. Afterward, a three-foot-long sword aura suddenly extended from the de and pierced into the Undead Knight¡¯s abdomen. The Undead Knight suddenly froze, and the Soul Fire in its eyes flickered wildly as if in a final struggle to stay awake. It opened its mouth to roar, but a me burst out from its mouth before it could make a sound. The me spread, swallowing its entire body. ¡°This... how is it possible?¡± In theboratory building opposite the teaching building, Luo Xingyao trembled. ¡°What¡¯s wrong? What happened?¡± The man behind her approached her quickly. He had never seen Luo Xingyao look so unnerved. Luo Xingyao didn¡¯t speak, but the intense emotional roller coaster in her eyes could not be hidden. The man followed her gaze. He picked up a telescope and ced it in front of his eye. He couldn¡¯t help but curse. ¡°F*ck! I¡¯m not dreaming right...¡± He saw a tall Undead Knight shrouded in crimson mes without even the strength to struggle. In just a breath¡¯s time, it hadpletely turned into ash! [Ding! Sessfully killed Undead Knight +1. Gained EXP +100!] [Ding! Cross-level kill detected. Gained an additional 100% EXP!] Listening to the prompts, the corners of Link¡¯s mouth curved up slightly. The [Strength] attribute of a stage-two Undead Knight was much higher than that of the other stage-two [Doomsday Online] yers except those of the [Fighter] profession. It roughly ranged from 300 to 400! For those stage-one [Doomsday Online] yers who had yet to understand how [Doomsday Online] worked, it was apletely inessible area. After all, most yers¡¯ [Strength] attribute was less than 20 points. Link was different. His [Strength] attribute was more than 700¡ªwhich was nearly twice that of an Undead Knight. Also, he had Red Sky¡ªa sword¡ªin his hand. Even if he had to sh with the enemy head-on, he would not lose out. ¡°I¡¯m bing less and less like a Summoner...¡± Link nced at his right hand¡ªwhich was holding the sword¡ªandughed at himself. Chapter 10: Undead Knight Commander

Chapter 10: Undead Knight Commander

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios The dark creatures on this floor didn¡¯t stop Link and his party for too long. About three minutester, they headed to the fifth floor. The fifth floor was also this teaching building¡¯s highest level. Yuna¡¯s beautiful face suddenly became serious. ¡°Master, there¡¯s a very strong dark aura nearby!¡± Eh? Link frowned. To be able to make the powerful Yuna take this seriously, it seems that an incredible dark creature has appeared in this conference room. Boom! The sound of chaos could be heard from the stairwell. It was as if the wall was copsing, and continuous screams could be heard. The moment they stepped onto the fifth floor, they could smell an unprecedented strong scent of blood as the wind blew toward them. They couldn¡¯t help but frown. The doorway was full of corpses, and there was a sticky spot under their feet. There was nowhere for them to stand. ¡°Ah!¡± Yang Xuerou suddenly eximed. Link followed her gaze. The conference room¡¯s broken door couldn¡¯t block his view. Corpses were all over the floor, and not one of them was aplete, whole body. The ground was stained red and was turning ck. Blood and mangled internal organs could be seen everywhere. The stench was repulsive. In the spacious conference room, more than 200 people were barely breathing. There were arge number of Skeleton Swordsmen and Skeleton Soldiers in the conference room¡¯s corner, especially near the door, preventing the people inside from escaping. On the other side, Undead Knights riding skeleton horses were neatly lined up and were ready to charge towards the remaining people. ¡°Ah¡ª¡± Undead Knights came and went like the wind. The survivors¡ªwho were already exhausted¡ªcouldn¡¯t dodge at all, and more than a dozen lives were quickly lost. Before they could take a breather, the Undead Knights turned around and charged at them again. ¡°Quick... quick dodge!¡± ¡°Save me! My leg is cramping up...¡± ¡°Give me a hand!¡± ¡°Principal, go quickly!¡± Among the crowd, a middle-aged man with his hairbed back helped another middle-aged man with a receding hairline to dodge quickly. The middle-aged man with a receding hairline was Lin Jian¡ªthe principal of Dragon City No. 1 Middle School. The middle-aged man whose hair wasbed back was Dragon City No. 1 Middle School¡¯s security supervisor. Lin Jian was old and weak; he had long lost his strength. He was only alive thanks to the security supervisor, who had been protecting him. However... the security supervisor could do nothing more. It was likely they wouldn¡¯t be able to dodge the Undead Knights this time. Lin Jian¡¯s pupils dted sharply. At the critical moment, he grabbed the security supervisor¡¯s arm and pushed him out with unknown strength. ¡°Principal, you... Ah!¡± The security supervisor never thought that the principal, who he had been so loyal toward, would actually push him out at this critical moment. ¡°Zhang Yuan... I will remember your kindness. When these creatures are gone, I will take good care of your family!¡± With the death of the security supervisor, Lin Jian got a pocket of time in exchange. Lin Jian clenched his teeth and rolled on the ground in a rather embarrassing manner. He managed to stay alive as he avoided the hooves of the Undead Knight¡¯s skeletal horse! ¡°Ah, this old fogey... is still the same!¡± Link and Yang Xuerou stood outside the door and saw everything clearly. In the memories of his past life, Lin Jian hadmitted countless wrongdoings to others just before Doomsday came.. Relying on the fact that he was the principal and had many henchmen around him, he took over Dragon City No. 1 Middle School¡¯s various resource allocations and did all the things that he didn¡¯t dare to do before or didn¡¯t have time to do. Some prettier girls were unable to escape his clutches. He was one of the culprits behind Yang Xuerou¡¯s death. This was also just one of the disgusting things he had done. ¡°Shameless!¡± Yang Xuerou frowned and angrily scolded, ¡°As the principal of Dragon City No. 1 Middle School, he actually exchanged the lives of the people around him for his own. What a brute!¡± ¡°Calling him a brute is being too easy on him...¡± Link looked away from Lin Jian. He had already given him the death sentence in his heart. ncing at the Skeleton Swordsman who had already noticed them, Yuna immediately greeted it withprehension. She swung her scepter, and light poured out from her [Holy Light Purification]. Almost instantly, the dark creatures disappeared without a trace. ¡°Fireball!¡± The lights in the conference room were already damaged. It was dark inside, but a dazzling me suddenly lit up and attacked one of the Undead Knights. Link squinted his eyes as he looked for the person who released the [Fireball]. It was a young man in ck formal attire. He was well-dressed and handsome. He looked like the standard portrayal of a tall, rich, and handsome man. ¡°Yan Lanxi, [Fire Sorcerer], Gold-grade [Warlock] Hidden Profession!¡± Link slowly remembered this person. Yan Lanxi was from a distinguished family. His father was a major shareholder of a listedpany, and his mother was an official. He was born with a silver spoon. The most annoying thing was that he was very smart and had a very high IQ. Before [Doomsday Online] started, he had been recruited by a famous foreign university. He could be described as a man who was both brilliant and wise. Countless men hated him. However, he currently appeared battered and exhausted. His clothes were covered with dust, and he didn¡¯t have his usual calm look. He wasn¡¯t very high-leveled. His [Fireball] skill was at its lowest level. Every time he used this skill, he would need to rest for quite a while, but he had no problem fighting against Skeleton Soldiers and a handful of Skeleton Swordsmen. Earlier on, his seemingly gorgeous spells had even earned him a lot of apuse. Everyone treated him like a hero and ttered him, but everything changed when the Undead Knights appeared. Even though fire spells had a certain restraining effect on dark creatures, his mes were too weak. Piak! The Undead Knight, who was targeted by Yan Lanxi, flicked its spear. The [Fireball] broke up and turned into sparks. With a low growl, all the Undead Knights locked onto Yan Lanxi and charged forward together. ¡°Damn it!¡± Yan Lanxi immediately turned pale. He tried to dodge, but his weak physique as a [Warlock] made him unable to avoid the Undead Knights¡¯ lock-on. Seeing that he was about to fall into a hopeless situation, an ice-blue figure shed by and swept him away. ¡°[Extreme Ice Combat Maiden] Xue Linglong, Diamond-grade [Fighter] Hidden Profession!¡± Link¡¯s eyes lit up, and then he muttered, ¡°I remember that Xue Linglong only has one arm!¡± In his past life, he had never been to this conference room, or perhaps he never had a chance to do so. Only now did he realize that these two had once been the guardians of Dragon City No. 1 Middle School¡¯s remaining personnel and that they were both in the conference room at this time. ording to history, no more than ten of the nearly 500 people in this conference room would escape alive. Most of them were also crippled. They died outside without getting timely medical attention. They were almost all wiped out. If I guessed correctly, Xue Linglong should have lost her arm here. Stage-two Undead Knights are not something [Doomsday Online] yers can challenge at their current levels. Moreover... Link¡¯s pupils dted as he stared at the tallest Undead Knight in the middle. Stage-two Undead Knight Commander, Level 7 Elite Leader. It was almost a stage-three monster! It was so strong it drove people to desperation. ¡°No wonder they are so organized and disciplined...¡± Link suddenlyprehended the situation. ¡°It turns out they were training soldiers!¡± With the Undead Knights¡¯ strength, the dark creatures could quickly kill all these people even if they fought separately. However, the Undead Knights charged at them repeatedly, taking their time every time. It seemed like they had started to y a game with them. As a leader-level dark creature, the Undead Knight Commander retained some intellect. Under itsmands, the other dark creatures used this group of humans to practice their charging. ... Xue Linglong saved Yan Lanxi in the nick of time. Before they could catch their breath, they realized that the group of Undead Knights had locked onto their position again. They were charging toward them at a faster speed. ¡°Jump out the window!¡± yelled Yan Lanxi. ¡°Below is the indoor gymnasium¡¯s viewing room. With our physical attributes, we will only be slightly hurt!¡± Xue Linglong¡¯s heart skipped a beat, and she hesitated. At this moment, the rest would be doomed if the only two people who were capable of fighting left. They wouldn¡¯t be able to escape death. ¡°What are you waiting for?¡± Yan Lanxi roared as he turned around and jumped out the window. Shatter! The sound of ss breaking could be heard outside the window. Chapter 11: Direct Confrontation With The Boss

Chapter 11: Direct Confrontation With The Boss

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios The Undead Knights hade to the front. Xue Linglong nced at the teachers and students hiding in the corner, grit her teeth, and stretched out her long leg to kick the wall. Her body then folded back on itself. With a clever feint, she dodged a spear, which almost cut her face. ¡°Great awareness!¡± Link looked at her, and there was a sh of appreciation in his eyes. Xue Linglong had yet to gain enough battle experience at this time. The fact that she had such spot-on spontaneous reactions was proof that she was extremely talented. Moreover, she chose to stay with the teachers and students. This kind of behavior seemed a little stupid to Link. If it were him, he would definitely not stay. However, he had to admit that she was adorably stupid. At least, he couldn¡¯t bring himself to dislike her. ... Pant! Xue Linglong returned to the crowd, panting heavily. Her hair was stuck to her forehead with sweat, and she looked quite bedraggled. She looked at the people around her. Her mind whirled, thinking about how to get out. ¡°They... they are attacking again. ssmate, hurry up and stop them!¡± Lin Jian suddenly screamed. He rushed to Xue Linglong and shoved her frantically, trying to get her to stand out and face the Undead Knights. However, with his physique, how could he move Xue Linglong, an awakened Extreme Ice Combat Maiden? Instead, he staggered and almost fell. Xue Linglong nced at him with disgust. Others might not have noticed when Lin Jian pushed the security supervisor out earlier, but she saw it all. She had alreadybeled Lin Jian as a shameless viin; there was no way she would listen to him. In actual fact, this group of Undead Knights was rushing towards her whether she wanted them to or not. The crowd dissolved into chaos. They fled, trampling everything. More than 20 lives were lost again. Everyone waspletely exhausted. They were unlikely to survive the next charge! At this moment, the Undead Knights¡¯ neat ranks suddenly separated. The Undead Knight Commander appeared on its mount. It pointed its spear¡ªwhich was thicker than the spears usually carried by Undead Knights¡ªforward. Rumble! The skeleton horse raised its front hooves high and let them fall heavily. The hooves¡¯ huge impact caused cracks to spread outward like fine cobwebs on the floor. It looked as if the floor was about to copse. The Undead Knight Commander didn¡¯t want to y any longer; it intended to end the battle! ¡°Ah¡ª¡± ¡°I don¡¯t want to die... don¡¯t want to die...¡± ¡°Help... who will save us!¡± ¡°Mother...¡± Xue Linglong¡¯s heart tightened, and her pupils constricted suddenly. The thought of impending death filled her mind. The Undead Knight Commander turned into a ck shadow and darted forward. It was an unstoppable and terrifying force. Even the air crackled. The sharp spear was pointed directly at Xue Linglong¡¯s head. Xue Linglong had no time to do anything else. All she could do was raise her right arm¡ªwhere blue energy coalesced¡ªin front of her and lowered her head. After that, she felt despair. In her heart, she knew that this little bit of energy was simply not enough to resist the Undead Knight Commander¡¯s attack. Her actions were merely a conditioned reflex. ... She was prepared for excruciating pain and even death. However, for some reason, the expected attack didn¡¯t happen. Instead, a very pleasant sound of metal shing against metal reverberated. She raised her head. A figure blocked the light in front of her. The figure was not tall. Rather, it was a bit thin. However, in the eyes of Xue Linglong, it was very impressive! ¡°You should be the highest-ranked monster in this school...¡± Link looked at the Undead Knight Commander in front of him, and the corners of his mouth curved up slightly. The Undead Knight Commander looked at the human who had appeared in front of it in astonishment. Its anger then surged, and the strength in its hands increased substantially. It wanted to crush the tiny insignificant human being with its brute strength. However, it didn¡¯t expect that the young man¡¯s arm, which held the long sword, would not waver at all. This human... actually had power that was on par with its own! How was it possible? ... At this moment, therge conference room was extremely quiet. Everyone stared at the scene before them nkly. Subconsciously, they gulped. Everyone knew how powerful the Undead Knights were. Just now, even Yan Lanxi and Xue Linglong, two very powerful people, barely managed to survive the Undead Knights¡¯ attacks. Not to mention, the Undead Knight in front of them was clearly stronger than the others that hade before. But why... was this young man¡ªwho had appeared from nowhere¡ªable to block its full-powered blow so easily? ¡°Link... is that you?¡± A sweet female voice came from the crowd behind him. Link turned his head and saw a beautiful but dusty face. Qiao Ruowei, Ling Ge¡¯s ss monitor, and also the school belle! She was also one of themended people in Dragon City No. 1 Middle School¡¯smendation ceremony. She was extremely bright and beautiful, the recipient of admiring and envious looks. However, Doomsday came so suddenly and unexpectedly that she almost died. ¡°It¡¯s really you!¡± A surprised smile appeared on Qiao Ruowei¡¯s face. It was as if she had met her savior. ¡°Are you here to save me?¡± She bit her lip lightly. If it were some other less dangerous time, the lip biting would be very attractive. However, her face was currently all dirty! Link ignored her. Actually, the two of them were not close. God knew why the woman had developed such an unrealistic delusion. Instead, he nced at Xue Linglong¡ªwho was squatting behind him¡ªand quietly asked, ¡°Can you still stand up?¡± Xue Linglong was slightly startled. She stood up and walked to Link¡¯s side, then posed as if she was ready to fight. ¡°Yes!¡± Link sneered instead, ¡°If you can stand up, move away, Don¡¯t affect my performance!¡± Xue Linglong was startled. Silently, she wondered if Link was going to face the terrifying monster alone? She was about to say something, but she swallowed her words and quietly retreated into the crowd upon seeing Link¡¯spletely indifferent eyes. ¡°Do you know Link?¡± A voice sounded next to her ear. She turned her head and saw that it was Qiao Ruowei. Immediately, she shook her head. ¡°No. I only know his name!¡± When Qiao Ruowei heard this, she subconsciously checked out Xue Linglong¡¯s body. Her eyes shed with unconvinced anger before she fell silent. ... Roar! The Undead Knight Commander roared angrily and raised its spear high. The ck air swirled around the spear de like a small tornado. The Undead Knight Commander charged at Link, aiming straight for his chest. The corners of Link¡¯s mouth curved up slightly. Holding [Red Sky], he stepped forward to meet the Undead Knight Commander head-on. The next moment, [Red Sky]¡¯s aura burst out, entangling with the ck energy. In theboratory building opposite, Luo Xingyao and the other person stared intently at the battle in the conference room. They were utterly shocked. ¡°My god... Where is that crazy guy from? He actually shed head-on with that guy?¡± The muscr man licked his dry lips, disbelief apparent on his face. They knew too well just how powerful Undead Knights were. They were something they had no hope of winning against. Furthermore, the one that Link was fighting against was clearly not an ordinary Undead Knight. Just looking at the amount of power in its movements and gestures were enough to make one¡¯s scalp go numb. But Link... was actually holding his own? Chapter 12: Holy Charge

Chapter 12: Holy Charge

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios ¡°So strong...¡± Luo Xingyao¡¯s breathing quickened, and strong yearning and pursuit shed in her eyes. That was the kind of power she wanted! Dang! The weapons shed, and the powerful impact caused the skeleton horse beneath the Undead Knight to be pushed back a few steps. On the other hand, Link didn¡¯t move at all. His smile was still the same as before, insipid as ever. ¡°ROAR... die!¡± The [Soul Fire] in the Undead Knight Commander¡¯s eyes expanded crazily, and it actually spoke. With a violent roar, it controlled its mount to charge towards Link with all of their might. A mist of death surrounded its body. It was like a piece of a pitch-ck sharp sword. It was also like arge hammer as it charged toward Link with a seemingly unstoppable force. Suddenly, the entire conference room¡ªwhich was already insufficiently ventted¡ªechoed with a roaring noise that sounded like a ghost crying as the air waspressed by this terrifying force. Death Charge! The Undead Knight Commander¡¯s exclusive skill! Link¡¯s mouth curled up slightly. He changed his single-handed grip on the sword into a two-handed grip, holding the sword in front of his chest vertically. [Red Sky]¡¯s sword body suddenly shone brightly, and thousands of tiny runes lit up at the same time. The surrounding temperature suddenly increased by several-fold, and even the air began distorting. In Link¡¯s eyes, an endless sea of fire could be faintly seen. ¡°Red Sky God me!¡± Swoosh! Holding the sword in front of him, Link swung it downwards, creating a scarlet wave of sword energy that cut across the air. The sword energy rubbed against the air and actually transformed into a raging fire in the next instant, growing. It spread at a mad speed, swallowing up the entire space in front of him. Everyone turned their heads away subconsciously, afraid to look. The light was so dazzling, and the temperature was so high that it even seemed to burn their sight. ¡°Ah¡ª¡± Ghastly howls resounded through the sky as if they were ghosts enduring endless torment in hell like in the legends, causing those who heard these howls to be frightened! In theboratory building opposite, Luo Xingyao and her friend became even more shocked. They could see more from their vantage point. The sea of ??me formed by Link¡¯s sword directly swallowed most of the teaching building¡¯s fifth floor; it also almost instantly turned the walls in the direction the sword pointed toward into ashes! The reinforced concrete had no room for resistance under this terrifying me. The man beside Luo Xingyao swallowed and said uncertainly, ¡°Is he... a Sword Immortal?¡± ¡°Maybe...¡± The light in Luo Xingyao¡¯s eyes flickered. In their cognition, the power that Link exhibited hadpletely exceeded the scope of humanity¡¯s capabilities. ... ¡°Is it over?¡± ¡°Are we saved?¡± ¡°Great!¡± In the dpidated conference room, the survivors hugged and wept, their faces filled with joy from surviving the disaster. The female students stared at Link¡¯s back with bright eyes full of gratitude and yearning as if they were looking at a great hero in a fairy tale who saved the world. Unbeknownst to them, Link wasn¡¯t interested in them at all. On one hand, he saved them because he didn¡¯t want Yang Xuerou to be sad. On the other hand, it was because Xue Linglong¡¯s talent and character were both not bad. As for the others, he saved them because they were on the way, that¡¯s all! [Ding! Sessfully killed an Undead Knight +1. Gained experience +100!] [Ding! Detected that you have killed a unit with a higher level than you! Awarded bonus experience +100%!] [Ding! Sessfully killed an Undead Knight +1. Gained experience +100!] ... [Ding! Sessfully killed an Undead Knight Commander +1. Gained experience +300!] [Ding! Detected that you have killed a unit with a higher level than you! Awarded bonus experience +100%!] [Ding! Congrattions on reaching Stage One, Level 5!] A series of notifications sounded in Link¡¯s ears. Not only did this move¡ª[Red Sky God me]¡ªkill the Undead Knight Commander just now, but the nine Undead Knights behind it also failed to escape. Link¡¯s mouth curled up slightly, and he ced the sword back into the scabbard as his eyes scanned the ruins in front of him. Two shing lights appeared at the spot where the Undead Knight Commander died! Link walked up and picked them up, finding a skill book and a ck spear. [Death Charge] (Silver): Skill book. After learning, you can cast Death Charge. Gather all the strength and charge forward a certain distance. During the charge, be immune to all control skills and 40% of the frontal damage. Hitting the target can cause a lot of damage, knockback effect, and stun effect. Cooldown time: 30 seconds! [Undead Spear] (Silver): Weapon. Condensed from the mists of death in the abyss. It has a decent lethality. The wounds inflicted by this weapon can apply corrosion effect and weakening effect to the opponent. ¡°As expected of a boss-level monster! The drop rate is quite high!¡± Link was quite surprised because the monster drop rates were quite low in [Doomsday Online]. Just now, Link cleared the dark creatures in the entire teaching building, but not a single thing dropped. Now, two drops appeared together. This was really quite a surprise. Also, it was quite rare for two Silver-grade items to drop from a low stage monster. Of course, items with such a grade were still too low for Link. Let¡¯s bless the skill book first! Thinking this, Link directly used Supreme Blessing on the [Death Charge] skill book! Buzz! The next moment, the skill book in his hand quickly turned its pages. Dots of light appeared out of nowhere, gathering together and forming a ball of light as they slowly fused with this skill book¡¯s every page. Gradually, Link clearly saw the words on the cover page being erased. Otherrge, golden words then reced them¡ªHoly Charge! [Holy Charge] (Legend) Description: The exclusive ability of the legendary pdins who guard the light. Effect: Charge in the specified direction, umting power on the way, and cause 250% area-of-effect damage in a small area upon hitting the target! Additional: Apply additional knock-up, stun, and silence effects to target for 5 seconds. Additional: Immunity to all control and damage during the charge for 3 seconds. Cooldown time: 30 seconds. Tsk tsk! High strength-attribute damage bonus with multiple control effects. It also granted immunity to control and short-term invincibility. This was really an incredible skill for closebat. Just this skill alone was enough to double thebat power of any [Doomsday Online] yer. For those professions that focused on the strength attribute, this skill would increase theirbat power even more. For Link, with his current high strength attribute, he would be able to dominate all existences in the same stage once he learned this skill! Without question, Link directly chose to learn this skill. Therefore, a golden skill icon appeared in his skill list. Name: Link Profession: Great Void Taboo Master [Taboo] Race: Human Level: Stage One, Level 5 Strength: 875 Intelligence: 617 Constitution: 858 Agility: 784 Equipment: [Red Sky] (Epic) Skills: Void Summoning Spell, Red Sky God me, Holy Charge (Legend), Unison of Heaven and Earth Talent: Supreme Blessing [SSS-grade] Summoned creature: Holy Angel (Super God) Status: .

Holy Heart ¡¤ Invigorating Spell (from Holy Priest): injury and energy recovery speed +50% (PS: Attribute= basic attribute +equipment attribute bonus +summoned creatures¡¯ attribute bonus) Very good, very powerful! The Supreme Blessing skill had a three-minute cooldown time, so Link had to wait a while before he could bless [Undead Spear]. Link turned around and looked toward the survivors. Lastly, his eyesnded on the principal¡ªLin Jian¡ªand his mouth curled into an inexplicable smile. Seeing this, Lin Jian instantly walked out and smilingly said, ¡°Student, you are really a young hero! I actually didn¡¯t know that our school has a highly-skilled person like you. I haven¡¯t been doing my job as a principal well!¡± ¡°Student, you have done a meritorious service by saving us! Once this matter is over, I will definitely submit a request to the provincial minister to give you a certificate of outstanding student and a sum of mary reward. How does this sound?¡± Hearing this, Link squinted his eyes slightly, gradually moving closer to the principal. He insipidly said, ¡°You are too courteous, but I don¡¯t want any of those things!¡± After he said this, Lin Jian¡¯s pupils suddenly shrank. Chapter 13: Death of Lin Jian

Chapter 13: Death of Lin Jian

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Lin Jian sensed the coldness in Link¡¯s eyes. His face couldn¡¯t help but go stiff, and he subconsciously took two steps back. He then said, ¡°Then what do you want? Go ahead and tell me. I will satisfy you as long as it is within my power!¡± ¡°Really? Then I shall thank you first, principal. Actually, I don¡¯t want much. It¡¯s something very simple!¡± ¡°I just want your life, that¡¯s all!¡± Link smiled very, very happily. The words Link said caused Lin Jian¡¯s limbs to go cold. His face turned very ugly, and heughed dryly before saying, ¡°Student, this joke isn¡¯t funny...¡± ¡°You think I am joking with you?¡± Lin Jian looked at Link¡¯s insipid eyes and instantly panicked. ¡°Student, is there a misunderstanding between us...¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry! There definitely isn¡¯t any misunderstanding. You are the person I want to kill, the principal of Dragon City No. 1 Middle School, Mr. Lin Jian...¡± Link¡¯s mouth curled upwards, and his right hand slightly moved, drawing out [Red Sky] by a bit. The sword intent built up and had yet to be released, but it was enough to cause Lin Jian¡¯s scalp to go numb. With eyes full of fear, Lin Jian said, ¡°Student, don¡¯t be impulsive! We can talk things over. Here, how about this? There are many female students here. Quite a lot of them are quite good-looking too. You can take whoever you take a liking to. I promise I won¡¯t tell anyone! I can even help you cover this up and ensure they won¡¯t dare to sue you...¡± ¡°If you want money, I will go to the bank and withdraw money immediately after we leave here. Both cash or online transfer is fine!¡± Once he said these words, an uproar broke out among the crowd, especially the female students. All of them had a good impression of Link in their hearts. Under normal circumstances, they definitely wouldn¡¯t refuse to develop a closer rtionship with him. However, when Lin Jian treated them asmodities in exchange for his own life, it was impossible not to get angry! ¡°Principal, what are you saying?¡± ¡°I never thought that you are actually this kind of person!¡± ¡°You are an animal! How can a person like you be worthy of being a principal?¡± ¡°Scumbag...¡± Lin Jian didn¡¯t have the energy to care about what they were saying now. His eyes were fixed on Link; he could sense that Link really wanted to kill him. However, he had done too many wicked things in his life. Even if he racked his brain, he couldn¡¯t figure out when he had offended such a terrifying guy, so he could only try to appease him. Men... especially, young and hot-blooded men, seek either power or women. Which man wasn¡¯t young before! This was what he thought. Link looked at him in disgust and shook his head. ¡°Killing a thing like you will make my sword dirty!¡± Lin Jian¡¯s face first went ck when he heard this before it filled with delight. He actually knelt down and said, ¡°Yes yes yes, you are right. I am just a piece of trash. I am not worthy for you to use your sword on me. Just treat me like fart and let me go...¡± Link didn¡¯t look at him any longer. The sword, [Red Sky], was sheathed again. He turned his head and insipidly instructed, ¡°Yuna, purify this rotten maggot¡¯s heart! Remember, don¡¯t let him die too fast!¡± ¡°Yes, Master!¡± Yuna walked in from outside; her beautiful appearance and holy presence made the hearts of everyone present tremble. ¡°An angel... Is this a real angel?¡± ¡°My God, what is wrong with this world? Even an angel has appeared!¡± ¡°Even skeletons climbed out to kill people. What is so surprising about an angel appearing as well... Shouldn¡¯t the focus now be on the angel¡¯s way of addressing Link? She actually called Link master?¡± Xue Linglong stared at Yuna dazedly, then fixed her eyes on Link. He has such powerful strength. He holds a godly weapon that I¡¯ve never seen before, and now even the legendary angel obeys his orders... What kind of person is he? Xue Linglong only felt like she was looking at a flower in the mist, not able to see anything clearly. But for some reason, she felt like she was being demonized. The more unclear it was, the more she wanted to get closer to him. Beside her, Qiao Ruowei subconsciously hid in the crowd slightly when Yuna appeared. The angel was too gorgeous and majestic... while the current her was in a pathetic state. Most of the other women who were better looking also behaved like Qiao Ruowei. Whether it was out of vanity or concern, those who cared about their beauty were always afraid of such cruel contrasts, especially when in front of a man who seemed to descend from heaven and had just saved their lives. Instinct drove them into wishing that they only disyed their best. ... Link didn¡¯t know that Yuna¡¯s appearance would cause such amotion in the crowd. Yuna herself wouldn¡¯t care about such things even more; she only listened to Link¡¯s orders. She raised her scepter high, and holy light gathered towards it. The entire dpidated conference room was suddenly flooded with warm currents, and everyone felt a warmth that came from the heart. It was as if the injuries on their bodies were being healed quickly and getting better. Except for Lin Jian! For him, the golden holy light was like a me that burned his skin. Every bit of it brought him almost endless pain. ¡°Ah¡ª¡± His face distorted, and his body curled into a ball as he frantically rolled on the ground. He wanted to roll into the crowd as if that would bring him some sense of security. p! At this moment, a foot suddenly kicked his lumbar spine with lots of strength, directly making him stumble and fall to the ground. ¡°Ah! W-who kicked me!¡± Lin Jian yelled in pain and looked back, meeting a pair of blue eyes. A pair of cold and ruthless eyes! Xue Linglong! ¡°You...¡± Lin Jian¡¯s face became even more ugly. The physical pain and the despair in his heart left him in agony. ¡°Y-you bunch of sluts. If I die, you guys will suffer too. All of you are... aplices!¡± Lin Jian shouted with all his might, ¡°The people on top won¡¯t let any of you escape!¡± Hearing this, everyone panicked. This group of students, who had yet to enter the adult world, had received civilized education since childhood and had respect and fear for the judiciary. Being the principal of Dragon City No. 1 Middle School, Lin Jian had indeed built quite a wide of connections in his years at Dragon City. His words indeed scared quite a lot of people. ¡°Humph! If the people on top really came to arrest people, you will be the first one they arrest!¡± Xue Linglong stood out, looked at Lin Jian with disdain, and said, ¡°You pushed the security supervisor, who protected you, toward his death in order to live. Did you really think no one saw that?¡± ¡°What? Such a thing happened?¡± The students were all shocked. The scene was very chaotic just now. They were trying their hardest just to stay alive and didn¡¯t have time to notice such a thing. ¡°I can testify! I saw it with my own eyes too. He really did such a thing!¡± Qiao Ruowei stood out, secretly ncing at Link. Her face was slightly red, but it was uncertain whether it came from anger or because she held her breath. ¡°He really deserves to die!¡± ¡°Kill him!¡± The crowd didn¡¯t hesitate anymore. ¡°A bunch of naive children...¡± Link shook his head andughed. It looked like they still hadn¡¯t realized the reality that the apocalyptic world had descended. If he wanted to kill Lin Jian, he would do it even if there wasn¡¯t any proof that Lin Jian deserved to die, let alone seek their approval. Times have changed; the only truth now was their own strength. Unfortunately, it was uncertain what price these students needed to pay to see this fact clearly. Lin Jian knew that all hope was lost, and his heart instantly went dead. The scorching holy lightnded on his body, and mes gradually appeared. The mes caused him so much pain that he would rather be dead. But Yuna had received Link¡¯s instruction not to let him die quickly. She controlled the strength of the holy light so that Lin Jian wouldn¡¯t die anytime soon. Under the endless pain, Lin Jian could only feel his body slowly bing charred bit by bit; it then turned into ashes. Chapter 14: Version Update?

Chapter 14: Version Update?

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios After Lin Jian died, the dpidated conference room fell into silence. Everyone¡¯s attention was on Link. It was like they were waiting for him to say something. They had experienced an unforeseen event and were unable to protect themselves. Thus, they subconsciously looked for something they could rely on. They previously relied on Principal Lin Jian and his security team. Now that Lin Jian had died, they ced their hopes on Link. However, Link didn¡¯t seem to realize this. He stood on the broken half of the corridor¡¯s balcony and looked into the distance without saying a word. His silence made the others look at each other. They didn¡¯t know what to say. Thankfully, Yang Xuerou walked in at this moment. Her kindness and warm heart gave these sorry children a sense of motherly care. Soon, a series of sobbing sounds could be heard in the corner. ... ¡°There are still ten more days!¡± Link narrowed his eyes and looked beyond the limits of his vision. Today was the first day of [Doomsday Online]. ording to his memories of his previous life, the number of tragic deaths in Blue Star reached one-fifth of its total poption on this day. That was twenty-plus billion! It seemed like a lot, but Link knew this was just the beginning. This was just an insignificant beginning. Ten dayster, all human settlements in this world,rge or small, would face the first monster siege after [Doomsday Online] began! If one had to describe this siege using the standards of online games, it would be... version update! But in actual fact, it was a thorough bloody elimination round. Bloody rivers were no longer enough to describe the tragic battlefields. Only those who survived were qualified to ept further challenges. After the first siege ended, the era of dark creatures temporarily ended. What weed the humans next was the Zerg Swarm nightmare. Although many dark creatures had invaded Dragon City, they were not powerful enough. As long as one found the right method, even novice [Doomsday Online] yers could deal with all the monsters except Undead Knights. When the best of them rose above the rest and killed more low-level monsters, they would level up and be more powerful. Soon, there would be a person who would be able to hold their own against the Undead Knights. In his previous life, Dragon City also organized a private armyposed of powerful [Doomsday Online] yers. They established a safe zone in the center of Dragon City in just a few days, providing the survivors a ce to live. They were once full of confidence, thinking they would be able to drive the dark creatures out and liberate Dragon City sooner orter. But when the day of the monster siege arrived, they realized how naive they were. Numerous dark creatures flooded the city like the tide. There was no end to them. Was there 100,000? One million? Or ten million? Nobody knew because most of the people had died. In this huge army of dark creatures, the Undead Knights were the most insignificant ones. There were even stronger monsters like Evil Bone Beasts, Undead Archers, Dark Priests, Necromancers... The most powerful of them all was the stage-four Evil General! It was not something that yers could go against at that stage. Dragon City fell, and the survivors migrated to other cities nearby. A lot of them died on the way. ording to statistics from the next generation, 98% of the entire Blue Star¡¯s citiespletely fell that day. The settlements which humans depended on for survival became ruins. Arge number of [Doomsday Online] yers had to establish camps in the dangerous wild and led precarious lives. As for Link¡ªwho was severely wounded in that battle¡ªwas down and out. ¡°Heaven gave me a chance to start over again. I will definitely not repeat the same mistakes in this life!¡± His thoughts drifted further and further, and he became a little distracted. He didn¡¯t even notice when Yang Xuerou came beside him. ¡°Link!¡± Yang Xuerou called out again. ¡°Huh?¡± Link recovered from his distraction and smiled apologetically. ¡°Sorry, I got distracted!¡± Then, he asked, ¡°Teacher Yang, what did you say just now?¡± Yang Xuerou repeated herself. ¡°The principal is dead. What do we do next? Everyone is waiting for you to say something!¡± Hearing that, Link looked around the room subconsciously and realized that everyone had their eyes on him. They had glimmers of hope in their eyes! After pondering for a while, he stepped in. Yang Xuerou walked beside him while Angel Yuna followed behind him. When Link entered the conference room, a sh of tension and hope appeared in surviving teachers¡¯ and students¡¯ eyes. ¡°Do you want to live?¡± The question he asked confused everyone. ¡°Link, what kind of question is that? Who would want to die? Besides, didn¡¯t you kill all those monsters?¡± said Qiao Ruowei. At this moment, she had already washed the dust off her face. A few wet strands of hair stuck to her forehead, adding some delicate charm to her bare, beautiful face. She looked at Link with a smile on her face, as if she was joking. Hearing what she said, the others couldn¡¯t help but smile knowingly. Link was unmoved. He looked at her seriously. ¡°Do you think I¡¯m joking with you?¡± ¡°I...¡± Qiao Ruowei froze. She was fearful of Link¡¯s seriousness. ¡°Also, why are all of you smiling?¡± Link looked at the others and smiled sarcastically. ¡°You don¡¯t really think that everything is over like this!¡± ¡°Link? What do you mean?¡± Trembling, a timid girl among the crowd asked, ¡°Aren¡¯t the monsters all dead?¡± Link bluntly said, ¡°All dead? Indeed, if you are all so naive, you will all be dead soon!¡± Everyone¡¯s expressions changed instantly. It was as if they didn¡¯t understand why their savior, Link, appeared so cold toward them in the blink of an eye. ¡°You have two choices. One is to be loyal to me. From now on, you will do whatever I want you to do! If you are not willing, I won¡¯t force you. Resign to your own fate!¡± Hearing this, the crowd suddenly went into an uproar. ¡°What? Loyalty?¡± Everyone looked at each other at a loss. ¡°Who are you to curse us to die?¡± someone said, unwilling to submit. ¡°What era are we in? You¡¯re still so backward. Do you want to be a feudal lord?¡± Some people sneered. ¡°That¡¯s right! You can¡¯t talk like this, even if you can fight!¡± ¡°To think we still treated you as a hero. I didn¡¯t expect you to be such a person... When the top leaders investigate the cause of the principal¡¯s death, don¡¯t expect us to testify for you!¡± Hearing the crowd¡¯sments, Link¡¯s expression remained unchanged. He had a thorough understanding of human nature. This little unrest didn¡¯t affect his disposition, not even by a bit. At this moment, Xue Linglong stepped forward and asked with uncertainty, ¡°Link, do you know something?¡± Qiao Ruowei spoke up for Link as well. ¡°That¡¯s right. Everyone, calm down and hear Link out. He¡¯s not the type of person to speak without thinking!¡± ¡°What more is there to say? I¡¯ve seen plenty of such people. He thinks he can do whatever he wants just because he¡¯s a little stronger than others. Everyone, let¡¯s go. I can¡¯t be bothered with him!¡± A male student wearing sses walked out and snorted at Link. Chapter 15: Loyalty? Spear of the Frosty Moon

Chapter 15: Loyalty? Spear of the Frosty Moon

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios His name was Duan Xueming, the president of Dragon City No.1 Middle School¡¯s Student Union. His studies were good, his character impable, and his family was wealthy. He was quite popr in school, especially so with girls. But everything changed today. Too many terrifying things had happened. He was scared to the point that he wet his pants. It was embarrassing... Luckily, no one noticed. It just so happened that Link had descended upon them like God and defeated the monsters, gaining much admiration and respect. This filled Duan Xueming with jealousy and dislike for Link. In particr, goddesses like Xue Linglong and Qiao Ruowei were riveted by Link, which made him particrly unhappy. ¡°What¡¯s so great about him? So what if he can fight... Ah!¡± He walked out the door with disdain. However, once out, he instantly went pale with fright. His body went weak, and he crumpled onto the ground. There were already 300 to 400 corpses in the conference room. Duan Xueming thought that his heart was strong enough. However, when he walked out of the door and saw the scene on Dragon City No.1 Middle School¡¯s campus, he realized that he had greatly overestimated his psychological endurance! There were dead bodies everywhere he looked! They all died differently; barely any two were the same. There were ruptured internal organs everywhere; pools of congealed blood were all over the ground. The entire campus had been painted red and ck. Of course, this was not the worst part of what he saw. The scariest part was what was in the distance. They were on the fifth floor and were rtively high up, so they could see the scene outside the campus. Wandering dark creatures were everywhere as far as the eyes could see. The prosperity and tranquility of the past were no more. The numerous high-rise buildings were in ruins at the moment. There were even dismembered corpses hanging on the wires of the shorter telephone poles. They seemed to have been thrown off a tall building. The whole city looked like a scene from purgatory. None of it looked like a ce where humans lived. ¡°What¡¯s the matter? What¡¯s the fuss?!¡± The few people behind him mumbled as they walked out. Like him, they were immediately stunned, and their lips trembled violently. This strange scene immediately aroused the curiosity of other people. At the same time, a strong sense of foreboding grew in their hearts. Almost everyone rushed to the door, then they all froze as if petrified. ¡°No... it¡¯s impossible...¡± ¡°Grandpa, my grandpa lives in that building. I¡¯m going to look for him...¡± ¡°Calm down. There are monsters everywhere outside. How are you going to get out?¡± ¡°Father, Mother, where are you?¡± ¡°Dragon City... is gone!¡± ¡°Where are the police? What are the police doing? Why is no one doing anything about these monsters?¡± Some people were disheartened, some were upset, some were fearful, and some were crying in grief... Fear and confusion once again ran rampant among the people! ¡°The times have changed, everyone¡ª¡± At this moment, Link¡¯s voice slowly sounded behind them. Everyone turned around reflexively and focused their attention on Link again. ¡°The end hase. Everything that was will no longer exist! Social order has copsed. There are no longer doctors in the hospital. Shopping malls are also upied by dark creatures. The judicial buildings have been abandoned, and the troops have been overwhelmed... No one will save you withoutpensation! To live, there must be sacrifices!¡± As soon as he said this, everyone looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion. ¡°I agree!¡± Xue Linglong was the first to stand out. With a serious expression, she said, ¡°I¡¯m willing to pledge loyalty to you. I will do whatever you ask me to do in the future!¡± ¡°Linglong, do you know what you are saying?¡± ¡°Are you crazy?¡± There were unbelievable expressions all around. They were unable to understand why Xue Linglong made such a decision, especially some of the boys. Their jealousy peaked when they heard their goddess say ¡®I will do whatever you ask me to do¡¯ to a man. Faced with all thements directed at her, Xue Linglong remained unfazed. She stared at Link intently, as if awaiting his response. Link looked at her for a moment before suddenly asking, ¡°Do you know how to use a spear?¡± ¡°Ah?¡± ¡°This!¡± Link took out the Undead Spear. ¡°Yes!¡± Xue Linglong nodded. ¡°I¡¯ve been learning martial arts since a young age, and I specialize in the spear!¡± She suddenly thought of something, and her breathing quickened. She asked, ¡°You want to give it to me?¡± Earlier, she clearly saw that this spear was the one Link got from killing the mighty Undead Knight Commander. Just by looking at the Undead Knight Commander¡¯s might, it was obvious that the spear was exceptionally powerful. It was far more powerful than ordinary weapons made of iron. ¡°Give you?¡± Link shook his head with a smile. When Xue Linglong saw this, a ray of disappointment shed in her eyes. Yes, why would he give me such a powerful weapon? How long have we known each other? In the next instant, Link said, ¡°I can¡¯t give away rubbish like this!¡± The cooldown period for his Supreme Blessing talent was over! The pitch-ck Undead Spear in his hand was immediately enveloped by ayer of golden light, and it began to shine. Buzz! Not long afterward, wisps of coldness emerged. The golden light faded and became an icy cold aura. [Ding! Blessing isplete!] [Ding! Congrattions on obtaining Spear of the Frosty Moon (Diamond)] [Spear of the Frosty Moon] Grade: Diamond Strength: 60 Intelligence: 50 Constitution: 35 Agility: 29 Additional skills: [Frost Force] (Passive): When attacking, there is a 20% chance for a frost effect to be applied to the enemy; frost effect slows the target¡¯s actions by 30% for 4 seconds. [Frost Spike] (Active): Release 12 sharp frost spikes to attack the enemy, andes withrge amounts of ice attribute damage. There is a 25% chance for the enemy to be frozen for 2 seconds. Cooldown time: 3 minutes. ¡°Um... it¡¯s average, but it will do!¡± Link held it in his hand and looked it over. Then, he threw it to Xue Linglong. Xue Linglong quickly caught it. Immediately, the Spear of the Frosty Moon¡¯s attributes appeared in her mind. ¡°This... this is?¡± Xue Linglong was in a daze. ¡°For me?¡± She was not blind. She naturally noticed that this weapon was totally different from the Undead Spear. Magical Weapon! The eyes of the people around her were riveted on the spear. If nothing else, they could tell that it was extraordinary just by looking at its design. She got something like this from just a simple deration of allegiance? Many people in the crowd were moved! Link calmly said, ¡°Since you will work for me, I will naturally not treat you badly. This weapon is just average, so you can make do with it first. If you make contributions in the future, there will be rewards!¡± ¡°Is it really for me?¡± Xue Linglong was still filled with disbelief. ¡°Okay, stop making a fuss. You¡¯ve always looked cool and collected. What happened?¡± Link arched his brows and said, ¡°There¡¯s an Undead Knight over there. Go try out the spear!¡± Xue Linglong¡¯s pupils constricted slightly, and her gaze followed Link¡¯s finger. Sure enough, an Undead Knight was slowlying toward them. She had fought Undead Knights more than once before and almost always failed miserably. It had left a psychological scar. She hesitated. Link looked at her and said softly, ¡°Are you telling me I have misjudged you?¡± Hearing that, Xue Linglong¡¯s head snapped up. Misjudged me? The words cut into her heart like a knife! A pair of pale hands gripped the Spear of the Frosty Moon tightly. She bit her lip lightly and strode towards the Undead Knight. Chapter 16: Xue Linglong, Whose Ability Soared

Chapter 16: Xue Linglong, Whose Ability Soared

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios ¡°Hey, Linglong, don¡¯t listen to him. He¡¯s letting you go and court death!¡± ¡°Exactly! That monster is so formidable; how is it something that can be dealt with with a worn-out spear? All he knows is how to make things look mysterious deliberately!¡± The people around took turns to dissuade her; the gazes cast toward Link became increasingly unfriendly. Link remained unmoved. Right now, Xue Linglong had walked to the front of the Undead Knight. Ice rays circted around the [Spear of the Frosty Moon]; even her entire being had an impable aura of a snow lotus lingering around her. At this moment, she felt that her body was filled with strength. The Undead Knight discovered her and controlled its steed toe charging. With slightly narrowed eyes, Xue Linglong strode with swift steps. Her figure turned into a blue phantom and vanished, only leaving behind a vague chill. The Undead Knight missed, and it turned its body and lifted the spear to thrust toward its side. Ding! The crisp sound of metal striking each other sounded. Xue Linglong rose into the air due to the force received andnded stably. Lifting her head, the glow of confidence began brimming in her eyes. With just this strike, she knew that she already had the capability of fighting Undead Knights. All of this was because of the [Spear of the Frosty Moon] that Link had bestowed upon her. At that instance, the tips of her feet touched the ground, and she chose to initiate the attack. Ding ding ding! Continuous shes resounded in the spacious schoolyard. Xue Linglong and the Undead Knight¡¯s fight went back and forth, burning with ardor. ¡°When did she be so strong?¡± ¡°Previously, she couldn¡¯t even resist one strike from that monster. Now they¡¯re actually... fifty-fifty?¡± ¡°Is that weapon really a divine artifact?¡± The countenances of the people watching changed; their breathing quickened, and their gazes became fiery. Even though the earlier Xue Linglong was also very strong, her strength was only limited to defeating Skeleton Swordsmen; she could do absolutely nothing to Undead Knights. Otherwise, they would not have been reduced to that state. However, Xue Linglong¡¯sbat ability had soared so much after gaining a new weapon. How could it not surprise them? They swallowed their saliva as their gazes sized up Link¡¯s back from time to time with some unknown thoughts in their heart. ¡°Frost Spike!¡± A delicate shout came from the distance, and the temperature around Xue Linglong sank abruptly. Cold currents indistinctly gathered all around, turning into pieces of sparkling ice crystals with two sharp ends. One would be awed just by the sight of them. Twelve ice crystal shards instantly took form and struck the Undead Knight together. The terrifying chill immediately turned the Undead Knight into an ice statue. The [Frost Spike] also triggered the two-second freezing effect! Xue Linglong made a prompt decision, flying forward and burying the spear into the Undead Knight¡¯s eye socket. Kill! ... Xue Linglong looked at the [Spear of the Frosty Moon] in her hand; her face was flushed, and her eyes were smiling. Like a snow lotus that bloomed in the cold wind, the sight of her had one besotted. She dashed to Link and said, ¡°I did it!¡± Link nodded and said, ¡°Given your talent, it would really have been a misjudgment on my part if you couldn¡¯t even finish off an Undead Knight with this spear!¡± In other words, this was no big deal. Xue Linglong promptly held back her smile and nodded while saying, ¡°I will continue to work hard!¡± Link made noment. He then suddenly recalled something and said, ¡°Oh yes, you ought to address me as Lord. Keep that in mind next time, don¡¯t be so ill-mannered.¡± Xue Linglong faltered, a speck of undetectable red shed across her fair and soft cheeks at once. But she still bit her lip lightly and murmured extremely softly, ¡°Yes, Lord!¡± Link immediately nodded in satisfaction. ... At this time, a figure suddenly jumped over and smiled fawningly at Link as he said, ¡°Lord, I¡¯m willing to pledge allegiance to you too!¡± Link took one nce at him and recognized that he was one of the people who¡¯d mocked him the most previously. Before he could speak, he found that even more people had swarmed before him. ¡°I want to pledge allegiance to you too. Henceforth, I will do whatever you say. If you say to go east, I definitely will not head west...¡± ¡°And me, and me! I can do that too!¡± ¡°Lord, Lord~ Look at me, I¡¯m very obedient...¡± ... Link¡¯s brows knitted together at once. What are these people? They were dismissive previously. Now that they have seen that there is good stuff, theye running one after another. Did they think I¡¯m a charity hall? He lifted his head for a look; there was still a portion of people hiding in the corner with conflicted gazes, seemingly still considering. Another figure squeezed in with his head bowed. He nced at Link, opened his mouth, and hesitated again. The corner of Link¡¯s lips rose slightly. ¡°Duan Xueming, you also want to pledge allegiance to me?¡± Duan Xueming¡¯s figure stiffened. A nauseating ttering smile was forced out onto his face that could originally be considered delicate as he said, ¡°Lord, I failed to recognize a formidable person back then! Don¡¯t stoop to my level!¡± Haha! Link chuckled. At the next moment, his smile vanished, and he icily said, ¡°Scram!¡± This one word was extremely strong, startling everyone around to the point that they trembled. ¡°A bunch of unkempt fence-sitters, do you think you¡¯re worthy ofing under my charge? The crowd¡¯s faces immediately turned a dark red. Even after holding back for a long while, not a sound was heard. Link arched a brow. ¡°Still not scramming?¡± ¡°Let¡¯s go, let¡¯s go, let¡¯s go...¡± A group of people scattered in all directions at once. Only a dozen people in the corner were left; Qiao Ruowei was among them. Link shot a look at them. Without saying anything, he turned and intended to leave by himself. All of sudden, Qiao Ruowei spoke up and stopped him. ¡°Link!¡± ¡°Yes?¡± Link¡¯s gaze was peaceful. ¡°Link, my grandfather is alone at home. I don¡¯t know how he is now. Could you...¡± A shred of a plea shed across Qiao Ruowei¡¯s eyes. ¡°No!¡± Link said decisively. Qiao Ruowei did not expect him to be this direct, and her heart sank at once. She said, ¡°On the ount that we were once schoolmates, can¡¯t you just help me this once? Just this time!¡± Upon hearing that, Link wore a scornful smile and walked towards Qiao Ruowei step by step. He leaned in very closely until Qiao Ruowei was a little nervous and flustered. What is he doing? Is he going to do that here...? It¡¯s not appropriate! So many people are watching! ... ¡°Fool!¡± Who would¡¯ve thought that an icy rebuke would leave Link¡¯s mouth once he opened it instead of gentle words? Qiao Ruowei was stunned. Since a young age, nobody had ever scolded her like this. She had always been very obedient and very outstanding... She was always the ¡®child of another household¡¯ in the talks of the usual parents. ¡°Why should I help you? Because you have no sense of shame?¡± Link was extremely blunt; his disdainful smile became increasingly wide. When the six words ¡®you have no sense of shame¡¯nded in the ears of the crowd, amotion instantly broke out. In an era of peace, using such vocabry towards a girl was no different from ndering her character. Qiao Ruowei only felt a lumpe up her throat, and some tears vaguely welled in her eyes. ¡°Cry! Cry it out!¡± Link scolded lightly. Qiao Ruowei wrinkled her nose and forcefully held back her tears. ¡°In the age of Doomsday, everyone finds themselves in danger. Even surviving bes a problem. Yet, you expect others to help you and also save your grandfather. Why should we?¡± ¡°Is it because of this face of yours that could be considered passable, or is it this body of yours that has yet to develop fully?¡± Once these words were said, everyone¡¯s countenances changed. Right away, a boy who could not tolerate this came forward and said indignantly, ¡°Aren¡¯t you being too much by humiliating a girl like this?¡± Link did not even spare him a look; he only stared into Qiao Ruowei¡¯s eyes and said, ¡°Is it too much? I¡¯m just saying that I don¡¯t have much interest in a child like you... However, there are a lot of people out there who fancy this!¡± ¡°In peaceful times, you can maintain your personal integrity because of legal restrictions and your family¡¯s protection. However, what do you have now? All the capital you can bring out will increase others¡¯ desires to humiliate you...¡± ¡°Oh, by the way! There are also those dark creatures out there. Their favorite people to kill are powerless, weak, and ipetent girls who know nothing other than crying like you!¡± Every single one of Link¡¯s sentences stabbed into Qiao Ruowei¡¯s heart like the tip of a knife. Her entire body trembled. It was as if she saw herself being captured by dark creatures, pierced through by spears and longswords, then torn to pieces. Chapter 17: Cruel Lesson

Chapter 17: Cruel Lesson

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Listening to Link¡¯s voice by her ears, the rims of Qiao Ruowei¡¯s eyes became red and swollen. Her eyebrows also kept quivering, but she forcefully held back her tears and did not allow them to fall. With a tearful voice, she said, ¡°That¡¯s certainly not the case... I don¡¯t believe you!¡± Hearing that, the corners of Link¡¯s mouth lifted slightly. He grabbed her hair and pulled her whole face to his front. ¡°Ah¡ª¡± Qiao Ruowei screamed in pain, her tears finally gushing out. ¡°Link!¡± At the side, Yang Xuerou could not bear to watch and spoke up to stop him. A hint of conflict shed through Xue Linglong¡¯s eyes, but she clenched her fists and remained silent. She began learning how to get used to her identity as a servant. ¡°Let go of her! What good are you, bullying a girl? Come at us if you have the guts!¡± The other boys¡¯ instinctive feelings of protecting the fair sex started making trouble as each of them spoke indignantly. Link raised his head and took a nce at the boy who just spoke. [Red Sky]¡¯s scabbard¡ªwhich was in his hand¡ªabruptly pushed out and struck the boy¡¯s abdomen hard, sending his entire being flying out. The boy immediately spat blood and fainted. Link then looked at Qiao Ruowei, who wore a look of pain in front of him again, and coolly said, ¡°Believe me now? If I want to, I can freely do anything to you, and you won¡¯t be able to do anything to me!¡± Qiao Ruowei cried out loud; it was unknown whether it was because of the pain from having her hair pulled, from being provoked by Link¡¯s words, or the thought of the cold and gloom thereafter... No one around spoke; the gazes that were directed toward Link were full of fear. Link casually flung Qiao Ruowei¡ªwho was before him¡ªaway, causing her to drop to the ground. He then addressed the crowd. ¡°Thew of the apocalyptic world¡ªthe strong rule! No one will help you for free, and neither will I...¡± Everyone wore doleful looks as if they¡¯d lost hope for the future. Link swept his eyes around and strode to go down the stairs. ¡°Hold on! I¡¯m willing to pledge allegiance to you!¡± Qiao Ruowei got up from the ground. The tear stains at the corner of her eyes were still wet; her clothes were messy, and her hair unkempt, looking piteous. However, her gaze was very firm! Link did not turn back, and only his indifferent voice sounded. ¡°Sure. Go kill ten Skeleton Swordsmen, and I will ept your allegiance!¡± ¡°Why?¡± she asked in puzzlement. She could not understand why Xue Linglong could be epted just by saying one sentence while she had suffered so much and yet still faced an even greater ordeal? Ten Skeleton Swordsmen? What would she use to kill them? Qiao Ruowei¡¯s pretty face was deathly pale. ¡°I do not take in useless people under my charge. You must either be capable or have potential. Skeleton Swordsmen are the trashiest dark creatures. If you can¡¯t even handle them, what use would I have for you?¡± Link shot a look at her from afar. He then remembered something and said, ¡°You can pass on these words to the others. Anyone who can kill ten Skeleton Swordsmen on their own has the chance to pledge allegiance to me.¡± ... In theboratory building opposite, Luo Xingyao watched as Link disappeared, her eyes slightly narrowed. She then held the man beside her, directly opened the door, and walked out. ¡°Xingyao, what are we doing? It¡¯s all monsters out there!¡± ¡°Killing monsters!¡± ... Link left the teaching building very quickly and strolled towards the field. Following behind him were Angel Yuna, Yang Xuerou, and Xue Linglong! Their beauty was enough to make all the men in the world go mad. What gorgeous scenery this was. ¡°Link, what you did earlier, wasn¡¯t it a little...¡± Yang Xuerou suddenly started to speak, then hesitated. ¡°Teacher thinks I went too far?¡± A faint smile appeared at the corner of his eyes. ¡°I know your aim is to have theme to terms with reality, but Qiao Ruowei is a girl after all!¡± ¡°Haha!¡± Link chuckled and said, ¡°Teacher, you are my teacher during peaceful times, and you can teach me knowledge. However, it is Doomsday right now... You still have a lot that you need to learn. When I do things in the future, learn more, watch more, and speak less. When time has gone by, you will naturally understand me!¡± Yang Xuerou sensed that his tone held some unfamiliarity; she could not help but feel flustered in her heart, as if she was about to lose something. She stopped in her steps, wanting to exin something, but found that Link was walking further and further away without stopping. ¡°I can tell that he really values you, Teacher Yang!¡± Xue Linglong stood beside her, watching Link¡¯s back view, and softly said, ¡°However, you should not be a person who obstructs him.¡± ¡°Obstruct?¡± Yang Xuerou did not understand. ¡°Heroes emerge in troubled times. A kind person will only die faster. Do you want to bring death to him? Only someone like Link can live freely and easily in Doomsday... We were incapable of this in the past, but we should learn now that we have the chance. You must know that we are already much luckier than many other people!¡± Xue Linglong sighed lightly and caught up to Link with quick steps. Yang Xuerou dazedly remained in the same spot, her eyes full of conflict. Link and Xue Linglong¡¯s words were wrecking the world view she had established since a young age. ¡°Obstruct... It turns out that I have actually be an annoying existence unconsciously! It¡¯s time to change my thinking!¡± After a long while, she breathed out heavily, a glow sparkling in her eyes. ... Link proceeded nonchntly, walking amongst the dark creatures like he was idly strolling in a courtyard. He knew that Yang Xuerou thought his earlier way of doing things was a little too much, but as a matter of fact, he could already be considered merciful in this apocalyptic world. The reason why he kept berating and making things difficult for Qiao Ruowei wasn¡¯t because she was an eyesore to him. It was just that she was suitable to be the person to make an example of. Qiao Ruowei was from a well-to-do family, inherently intelligent, pretty, and had good grades... Her longing for peaceful times was the strongest among all the students. When she was forced to learn of the doomsday¡¯s cruelty and ept reality, the rest naturally wouldn¡¯t find it difficult to ept. Humans were like this. When a person who used to be more outstanding than you was reduced to the same state one day, you would feel that it was bittersweet, no matter how bitter the circumstances were. The apocalyptical world had just arrived. Most people currently had yet to change their mentality from peaceful times. To others, especially girls like Qiao Ruowei, they would feel rather empathetic. When Link hit her and humiliated her... it would be easy for the others to identify with her feelings and feel indignant in their hearts, regardless of whether they were male or female! Therefore, the effect would be the best! Actually, such a method would only work in the beginning of Doomsday. When the future situation bes increasingly severe and more and more people die, their hearts will be colder and colder... Rarely will anyone care about what happened to others. ... Dragon City No. 1 Middle School¡¯s field was huge. Presently, it was also upied by the dark creatures roaming everywhere. The majority were low-level monsters like Skeleton Soldiers and Skeleton Swordsmen. Link directly made Yuna shine her Holy Light, which formed a ring around them. It did not consume much of her energy. Just the Holy Light¡¯s aura was enough to frighten and stop those skeletons froming near. Throughout the journey, they essentially did not act to kill dark creatures. Firstly, it was because these low-level monsters gave Link very little EXP now, and he needed a lot of EXP. Even if he killed all of them, he might not be able to advance by half a level. Secondly, if he were to kill all of them, wouldn¡¯t that group of students have no monsters to kill? Doomsday was here. The entire human race faced an unprecedented crisis. No matter how strong one¡¯s individual capability was, who would dare guarantee that they could do well alone? The bitter pills of being a lone wolf, the Link in the previous life had had enough of them. Chapter 18: Subduing Luo Xingyao

Chapter 18: Subduing Luo Xingyao

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Link was once a lone ranger. Although his survival was guaranteed, his quality of life was almost the same as that of a savage. He always worried about food, slept in the open, and ate in the wind most of the time. Those feudal lords who established political power and wielded absolute power enjoyed life like a celestial being. They had tens of thousands of [Doomsday Online] yers under them, and it was easy for them to do anything. Now that he had the chance to relive his life, he would be able to form the most powerful force in the world and emerge on top with his talent and abilities. Right now, this was just the first step. Although Dragon City No. 1 Middle School was just a school, there were quite a few yers with high potential hidden within. Even those who were unknown in his previous life might not be weak. Just like Yang Xuerou, who became a legendary awakened Holy Priest this life. But in her previous life, she died tragically at the hands of a traitor before she could seed. The assessment he set was not easy for ordinary people. It was important to know that even the weakest Skeleton Soldiers were stronger than ordinary people in all aspects of physical abilities, let alone Skeleton Swordsmen! But Link had no intention of letting them fight with dark creatures head-on. It took brains to fight. In other words, talent. Those who could pass the assessment were not mediocre. There was value in training them. As for those who didn¡¯t pass, they could do whatever they want. Their life and death had nothing to do with them. ... Link sat on top of a rock, lying on his side quite leisurely. As time passed, Dragon City No. 1 Middle School began to get lively. It seemed that the students had spread the word to the others. Some were skeptical, but most of them were willing to try. Dark creatures were everywhere. It was a matter of time before they had to face them anyway. Thus, they might as well try to fight them on their own ord. It was just that theirbat skills were rather pathetic. Some people held mops, which the Skeleton Swordsmen chopped into pieces with one sh. They almost had their entire hands chopped off. Some that were stronger wildly swung tall door panels. They exhausted themselves but didn¡¯t even touch the Skeleton Swordsmen. In the end, their heads were cut off by the Skeleton Swordsmen. When the others saw that these people had lost their lives, they became frightened and began moring a slogan that they would rather stay alive. Link got disinterested and turned around so that he didn¡¯t have to look at them. Suddenly, he heard a loud noise. Link looked up but only saw two figures walking on the edge of the field. One of them was strong and tall. He held a mountain knife in his hand; his attacks were widely-ranged. When he swung it around, one could faintly see the sword energy surrounding the de, which could easily cut the Skeleton Swordsmen¡¯s bones. The surrounding Skeleton Swordsmen were attracted and surrounded him, but they could do nothing to him. About five meters behind him stood a tall, morous woman holding a traditionalpound bow that was as tall as half a person. She aimed and shot at the Skeleton Swordsmen surrounding the strong man. Her actions of bending the bow and pulling its string were smooth. One could easily tell that she was skilled at archery. Her technique was urate, and light lingered on the arrow. Her arrows could easily pierce into the Skeleton Swordsmen¡¯s [Soul Fire]s and kill them. Their teamwork was orderly, and they soon killed more than 20 Skeleton Swordsmen. Of course, they were exhausted after this. Link¡¯s eyes lit up. As the two people got closer, the corners of his mouth curved up slightly. ¡°It¡¯s them!¡± Luo Xinghe, [Silvermoon Sword Emperor], Gold-grade [Fighter] Hidden Profession. Luo Xingyao, [Demon Sealing Arrow], Epic-grade [Archer] Hidden Profession. These two people were notoriously powerful in his previous life, especially Luo Xingyao. She was known as the King of [Archers]! She was one of the top ten masters in the Top 100 Human Alliance League. ¡°They really are siblings!¡± Link pouted. In his previous life, Link and Luo Xingyao became friends through fighting. Due to certain reasons, Luo Xingyao hunted down Link for a whole year. Link had no choice but to go on the run. However, Link was, amazingly, caught in a life or death crisis, and Luo Xingyao was the only one who was willing to save him. Soon, they became rare confidants. He understood this crazy woman too well. She was determined to pursue greater strength but was very haughty. In the Doomsday era, when human lives were worthless, she never lost her original morals. Even if she starved to death, she was unwilling to do things that went against her morality. She was indeed an odd character in this dark era. Link once scolded her, saying that she would be killed by her haughtiness sooner orter. At that time, she indifferently replied, ¡°I don¡¯t have to follow what other people do. Simrly, others can¡¯t follow what I do!¡± Such was indeed the truth. As a female, she broke through and became an existence that many looked up upon. As for the Silvermoon Sword Emperor, Luo Xinghe, Link had nevere in contact with him. Link only heard of his forthright character. He was Luo Xingyao¡¯s elder brother. The two depended on each other in this apocalyptic world and had a deep rtionship. As he thought that, the two approached Link. Luo Xinghe wiped the sweat off his forehead and casually said to Link, ¡°Hey brother, we¡¯re here!¡± He didn¡¯t even conceal the admiration and joy in his eyes. Earlier, he had used a telescope to see Link¡¯s battles from the dormitory building. He admired Link¡¯sbat power, which exined why he called Link ¡®Brother.¡¯ ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that the first people to pass this assessment would be the two of you, who were watching us from a distance!¡± Link slowly sat up with a smile on his face. Luo Xinghe was startled, then suddenly grinned. ¡°Brother, you actually knew!¡± Of course, Link knew. He discovered them long ago. Besides, Luo Xingyao¡¯s profession, [Demon Sealing Arrow], came with a passive enhancement of the five senses. She could sense everything that happened in the conference room, the teaching building, and theboratory building, which was only a few dozen meters away. She could hear everything Link said. As such, their meeting was not surprising. Luo Xingyao didn¡¯t appear too happy. In her opinion, this assessment was not very difficult. It was only natural that shepleted it. She looked at Link with a piercing gaze and asked, ¡°If I pledge my loyalty to you, what can you give me?¡± Link was stunned. His stiff expression remained, and he chuckled. ¡°I can guarantee your safety through Doomsday. Isn¡¯t that sufficient?¡± Luo Xingyao shook her head. ¡°I can stay alive by myself very well!¡± She said that casually but confidently. Link had no doubts about that. After all, she was Luo Xingyao. ¡°This familiar haughtiness...¡± He sighed softly in his heart, jumped off the rock, walked to her front, and stretched out his hand. Luo Xingyao frowned, not understanding his actions. ¡°Give me your bow and arrow!¡± As Link said that, the corners of his mouth curved up slightly. Chapter 19: An Unexpected Outcome

Chapter 19: An Unexpected Oue

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios ¡°You can use bows and arrows?¡± asked Luo Xingyao in confusion when she heard what Link said. ¡°You talk too much nonsense!¡± said Link as he grabbed the bow and arrow. He nocked the arrow, drew the bow in one fluid motion, and then aimed at a Skeleton Swordsman nearby. Luo Xingyao wanted to stop him, but she was stunned the moment Link drew the bow. At that moment, she felt a different vibe from Link. She could not exin it, but she felt a strong instinctual draw towards him. ¡°Go!¡± Link loosened his fingers, and the arrow bolted off the bowstring, flying through the air and turning into a bright beam of light. It continued to spin like a huge air vortex. The arrow plunged into the skull of the Skeleton Swordsman. Boom! The Skeleton Swordsman¡¯s skull exploded suddenly as if the arrow that hit it was loaded with explosives. The scene was spectacr. Everyone was stunned! They all clearly saw that Link had only used ordinary arrows¡ªthe same type Luo Xingyao previously used¡ªbut why was there such an effect? ¡°What... kind of arrow is that?¡± Luo Xingyao¡¯s eyes flickered, and her breathing quickened. Seeing this, Link knew that he had achieved his goal. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he said, ¡°Storm Spiral Arrow!¡± Link was not well-versed with the bow and arrow. This shot was taught to him by Luo Xingyao in his previous life. Storm Spiral Arrow was a technique created by Luo Xingyao in the early days of her past life. The principle behind it was not difficult, but it now seemed like a magical technique. Link looked at Luo Xingyao. ¡°Is that good enough?¡± Luo Xingyao¡¯s eyes shined brightly, and she nodded. ¡°Enough!¡± Link smiled lightly. He had used Luo Xingyao¡¯s own technique to win her over. It made for an interesting thought. Luo Xinghe quickly walked to Link after witnessing what he had done. He sped his hands and bowed. ¡°Lord!¡± Indecision shed in Luo Xingyao¡¯s eyes. In the end, her red lips opened slightly, and she lowered her head. ¡°Lord!¡± This extremely arrogant woman is calling him Lord willingly, tsk... Link suddenly felt removed from reality. All these highly-talented individuals who had gathered under hismand brought him a step closer to the top position of power he aimed for in [Doomsday Online]. Moreover, Link could give his people the equipment they needed to get ahead of all the other [Doomsday Online] yers with his talent. Equipment, skills, gear... Everything they got would be the best. If a person like Luo Xingyao was given enough resources and had Link¡¯s guidance, she would definitely be able to surpass her previous life¡¯s self. Under Link¡¯s cultivation, even a slightly less talented genius like Luo Xinghe could easily surpass the past Luo Xingyao. At this moment, Link felt full of confidence! Time slowly passed. Legends about Link spread more and more widely. As a result, arge number of people created teams to kill Skeleton Swordsmen. They hoped that they would be protected by someone powerful, or even better, that they could have power like that too. However, most of them joined on a spur of the moment decision. They went weak when actually faced with Skeleton Swordsmen. How could they fight? They were scared out of their wits before the fighting even started. The overwhelming majority of people gave up halfway! Less than 20 people still persisted with the assessment. Link had already expected this. In fact, he thought that more people should give up. Their number now was not low. Actually, although the Skeleton Swordsmen were strong, they were not so powerful that an ordinary person could not deal with them. Everything stemmed from the fear of the unknown! Once one overcame their initial fear, they had a much higher chance of winning. ¡°Ah¡ª¡± A dark muscr man took a big gulp of alcohol, and his eyes immediately turned red. His brute strength surged. He rushed forward and forcefully bumped into a Skeleton Swordsman. The Skeleton Swordsman was knocked back by the force. The man then took out a fruit knife, grabbed the Skeleton Swordsman¡¯s head, and stabbed it vigorously. However, the Skeleton Swordsman¡¯s bones were as hard as stone. The man¡¯s knife had gone blunt without doing any damage until he identally thrust the knife into the Skeleton Swordsman¡¯s eye socket! Hiss! The Skeleton Swordsman suddenly stopped moving, and its [Soul Fire] gradually extinguished. The sound of a sessful kill notification rang out in his mind. The man was stunned for a while. He looked at the Skeleton Swordsman body in his arms and recalled what he had just done. Gradually, a wave of ecstasy rose within him. ¡°Brothers, the eyes of the damned skeletons is their weak point. Their eye sockets may be empty, but they die when stabbed in the eyes!¡± When the people around heard him, they all looked over. Seeing that there was really a dead Skeleton Swordsman at the feet of the person speaking, their hearts thumped loudly. On the other side, someone yelled, ¡°It¡¯s true! I killed a skeleton too!¡± By this time, everyone was getting excited. Holding various weapons in their hands, they aimed and stabbed at the skeletons¡¯ eye sockets. ... ¡°Lord, a lot of people should be able toplete the assessmentter since they figured the key to killing these skeletons, right?¡± Xue Linglong couldn¡¯t help but ask as she took in the scene in front of her. ¡°It¡¯s not that easy. Just wait and see!¡± said Link slowly while lying on the ground with his hands crossed behind his head. As he predicted, they weren¡¯t able to attack and kill the skeletons as easily as they thought they would, even though they had found the skeletons¡¯ weak spot. These dark creatures had strong instincts to protect their [Soul Fire]. When the enemy they faced showed intentions of destroying their [Soul Fire], they would initiate a series of counterattacks. Unless one was so fast and urate that the Skeleton Swordsmen could not react in time or were able to react but unable to deflect the attacks, it still wouldn¡¯t be easy to kill them. Furthermore, many people were getting chopped in half by the Skeleton Swordsmen after their attacks failed. For a time, Dragon City No. 1 Middle School echoed with screams once again. Only a very small number of people were able to find the opportunity tond fatal blows by remainingpletely vignt and concentrated, carefully avoiding all the attacks of the Skeleton Swordsmen. ... Gradually, the number of battlefields decreased. Ten... seven... two! Only two people were still fighting! All the others had either escaped or died... What surprised Link was that Qiao Ruowei was one of the remaining two people! ¡°She managed tost until now?¡± Interest sparked in Link¡¯s eyes. At this moment, Qiao Ruowei¡¯s appearance was already beyond wretched. Her hair was disheveled like a madwoman, and she was covered in bloodstains. Her clothes were bedraggled. However, what was exposed was not tantalizing pale flesh. Instead, it was horrifying bone-deep cuts. Many of her wounds had already be infected and were filled with pus. Her bones could be seen through the wounds. The long skirt that was originally as white as a fairy had long been soaked through by blood and turned ck. She looked like she had fallen into a dye vat. At this moment, she was trembling as she faced a Skeleton Swordsman with a dagger in her hand. She was barely able to stay steady on her feet due to the pain she was in. The Skeleton Swordsman rushed forward. She gritted her teeth and let herself fall to the ground. She went under the Skeleton Swordsman¡¯s crotch, then quickly got up using both her hands and feet. After that, she jumped onto the Skeleton Swordsman¡¯s back and wrapped a hand around its neck. Then, she fiercely jabbed the dagger in her right hand into its eye socket. Chapter 20: One Left, One Stayed

Chapter 20: One Left, One Stayed

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Link squinted his eyes and asked, ¡°How many did she kill?¡± ¡°This is the ninth one!¡± Xue Linglong answered. ¡°This littledy is really strong-willed; she¡¯s actually persevering in spite of the heavy injuries. I am quite impressed by her!¡± Luo Xinghe nodded and agreed. ¡°Not bad!¡± said Luo Xingyao too. Yang Xuerou didn¡¯t say anything¡ªa rare instance¡ªbut her eyes betrayed her emotions. ¡°I didn¡¯t think that this littless would choose the [Assassin] profession...¡± Link suddenly felt puzzled. ording to his judgment, girls like Qiao Ruowei, who was heavily doted upon when growing up, would choose the [Priest] or [Warlock] profession. Or maybe even the [Archer] profession; that also wouldn¡¯t be too surprising for him. But this girl actually chose the [Assassin] profession! This profession relied heavily on the user¡¯s closebat ability, with high requirements for one¡¯s reflexes and judgment. An agile body was a must for this profession. Qiao Ruowei obviously didn¡¯t go through this kind of training before. Even if she exercised regrly, that would give her a slim body at most. Her sequence of movements executed just now was quite sloppy. Even a basic stand up and jump also looked extremely clumsy and required her to use both her hands and feet... However, Link¡¯s eyes were extremely sharp and urate. Qiao Ruowei had obviously understood part of the essence of the Assassin¡¯s essential skill¡ª[Backstab]. Even though she only understood a thread of it now, it was also very terrifying. Is it her talent? If so, Qiao Ruowei really is a born Assassin! However, why didn¡¯t I hear of such a person in Dragon City No. 1 Middle School in my previous life? In his memory, Qiao Ruowei was like a delicate flower, unable to take any hardships. Although good-looking, she was useless. She didn¡¯t have much of a presence too. Link never saw her again after Dragon City was destroyed. He had always thought that she had died in the city then, but it now looked like that wasn¡¯t the case. ¡°Maybe she always had this talent in her; it just never showed... It was only until I forced her to such a state that she gradually awakened?¡± Link pondered. This wasn¡¯t impossible! In his memory of the previous life, those who weren¡¯t able to awaken a talent at the start of [Doomsday Online] generally didn¡¯t achieve muchter on. But that wasn¡¯t definite. After experiencing all kinds of opportunities or encounters, some people awakened their talent at ater stage and caught up to the others who awakened at the start. It was just that the probability was very small, so small that it was almost negligible. It now looked like Qiao Ruowei might very possibly be this type of person. ¡°Indeed, people need to be forced to seed!¡± said Link insipidly and smiled. ... Other than Qiao Ruowei, Link found another person who remained familiar¡ªFire Sorcerer Yan Lanxi, Gold-grade [Warlock] hidden profession! The person who escaped by jumping out of the window previously. He had killed nine skeletons too, only needing one more to pass Link¡¯s assessment. At this moment, his eyes were filled with excitement. After killing nine skeletons in a row, he had already grasped the technique required. Even though he was close to the point of fainting now, he still had enough energy left to kill one more skeleton. However, what happened next caused him to be dumbfounded. The Skeleton Swordsman in front of him suddenly grew taller by three inches, and the green [Soul Fire] in its eyes turned blood red too. This Skeleton Swordsman had gone berserk! After going berserk, this Skeleton Swordsman¡¯s strength increased tremendously, and its speed also increased. It practically didn¡¯t give Yan Lanxi any time to cast his spell. Yan Lanxi was in a pathetic state. He was chased after by the Skeleton Swordsman and even had arge piece of meat on his wrist cut off by the Skeleton Swordsman. Yan Lanxi¡¯s face instantly became very ugly. He looked at Qiao Ruowei¡ªwho was resting in the distance¡ªand angrily shouted, ¡°What are you still looking at? Come here and help me kill this fellow. If not, we will both die!¡± The other Skeleton Swordsmen nearby had all been killed; this was thest one remaining. However, this Skeleton Swordsman had gone berserk; it would kill everything in its vicinity if it wasn¡¯t stopped. Qiao Ruowei rubbed away the blood covering her eyes, grit her teeth, stood up, and charged towards the Skeleton Swordsman. Unfortunately, the strength and speed of this berserk Skeleton Swordsman were on another level aspared to before. Theirbined might was enough to deal with it too. Yan Lanxi frowned and said, ¡°Iprehended a powerful spell previously, but I need some time to cast it. Help me to hold him back; I will be quick...¡± Qiao Ruowei didn¡¯t say anything; she directly charged toward the Skeleton Swordsman with her body that was full of wounds. This Skeleton Swordsman was too tall. With her current physical fitness, she wasn¡¯t able to jump up and kill it like previously. She could only run around it and dodge its attacks, cing her hopes on Yan Lanxi¡¯s spell. Yan Lanxi made a hand gesture with both hands. Then, faint light dots of fire gathered in his palm. The surrounding temperature gradually increased. The berserk Skeleton Swordsman seemed to sense the danger, abandoned Qiao Ruowei¡ªwho was jumping around it¡ªand charged towards Yan Lanxi with its huge sword. ¡°Stop it!¡± Yan Lanxi shouted furiously. Qiao Ruowei violently charged forward and grabbed the Skeleton Swordsman¡¯s arm with all of her strength, but it didn¡¯t affect the Skeleton Swordsman¡¯s movements at all. Then, she clenched her teeth and threw out her dagger, aiming towards the Skeleton Swordsman¡¯s eye socket. The Skeleton Swordsman instantly stopped and raised the huge sword in front of itself on reflex. Ding! The dagger bounced off. Crack! ¡°Ah¡ª¡± The Skeleton Swordsman broke one of Qiao Ruowei¡¯s arms, causing her to scream hoarsely from pain. The Skeleton Swordsman then grabbed her neck, slowly raising her up until she was above its skull. Qiao Ruowei¡¯s face was pale, and she was unable to breathe. Seeing this, the corners of Yan Lanxi¡¯s mouth suddenly curved up, and the fire in his hand flew out as a column of fire that was as thick as an arm. ¡°me Beam!¡± The scorching beam of light shed toward the Skeleton Swordsman, carrying a terrifying heat. After prating Qiao Ruowei¡¯s abdomen, itnded on the Skeleton Swordsman¡¯s skull. Qiao Ruowei¡¯s pupils widened, the life energy in her body quickly flowing away. The Skeleton Swordsman¡¯s [Soul Fire] was extinguished by this attack too. p! Two figures dropped to the ground one after another, leaving only Yan Lanxi standing. ¡°Ahahaha...¡± Pleased with himself, Yan Lanxiughed loudly, then dragged his tired body and walked up to Link. Panting heavily, he smiled and said, ¡°Lord, only I am standing in front of you in the end!¡± Link looked at him insipidly and ndly said, ¡°Is that so?¡± Yan Lanxi¡¯s heart jumped, feeling that something was amiss on instinct. Link suddenly stood up and unsheathed [Red Sky]. A crimson wave of sword energy shed and cut across Yan Lanxi¡¯s throat before anyone could react. ¡°Wh-why...¡± Yan Lanxi¡¯s eyes were popping out. They were filled with puzzlement and unwillingness. Then, he gradually dropped to the ground. ¡°I only said that I would give one a chance, but I didn¡¯t say that I would definitely agree!¡± Link nced at the corpse as if nothing happened. In the apocalyptic world, it wasn¡¯t wrong to be selfish. However, nobody would ept the type of person who would backstab their teammates. In his previous life, Link was betrayed by a teammate before and almost lost his life. Towards this type of person, he only had one method to handle them¡ªKill them! ... He raised his gaze, looking towards Qiao Ruowei¡¯s body, which was lying on the ground. Her breathing was almost inaudible. Chapter 21: Plan

Chapter 21: n

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios ¡°Still not fully dead...¡± Sensing Qiao Ruowei¡¯s weak life force in her body, Link raised his eyebrow. He turned his head and instructed, ¡°Yuna, Sister Xuerou, go save her!¡± ¡°Yes, Master!¡± ¡°Okay!¡± They both nodded and respectively gathered an abundance of golden holy light and milk-white healing light respectively, gradually enveloping Qiao Ruowei¡¯s body in the two lights. A Holy Angel¡¯s holy light had the effects of purifying negative debuffs and healing. Coupled with Yang Xuerou¡¯s [Holy Priest]-level [Restoration Skill], the wounds on Qiao Ruowei¡¯s body healed at a visible speed. The mist of death on her body gradually dissipated, and life energy filled her body again. She slowly woke up. However, Link didn¡¯t let Yuna and Yang Xuerou heal herpletely. They only healed her enough to preserve her life and recover a small part of her stamina. ¡°I... am not dead yet?¡± Qiao Ruowei¡¯s expression was as if she had seen a ghost. ¡°You still have onest chance!¡± Link insipidly said. Qiao Ruowei instantly understood his meaning and struggled to get up. Then, she walked towards one of the few remaining Skeleton Swordsmen in her sight. Unsurprisingly, even though the process wasn¡¯t an easy one, Qiao Ruowei still managed to kill it. Pu! Half kneeling on the ground, she violently spat out a mouth of blood. Not a single piece ofplete flesh could be seen on her body. p! A figure appeared in front of her, but she didn¡¯t have any energy left to raise her head and see who it was. She could only hear a very familiar voice sounding in her ears. ¡°Congrattions on passing the assessment!¡± Qiao Ruowei smiled from the bottom of her heart. The next moment, her vision went dark, and she fainted. ... Not long after, Qiao Ruowei regained consciousness. She felt that her entire body was filled with energy; her mental spirit had also fully recovered. Looking around, she saw Link and his group standing in front and staring at her. ¡°How long have I slept?¡± ¡°Only a few minutes!¡± said Link expressionlessly. Qiao Ruowei hurriedly stood up and took in a deep breath. She looked at Link and said, ¡°You said that you would ept my pledge of allegiance if I could kill ten Skeleton Swordsmen!¡± Link nodded and said, ¡°That¡¯s right! I ept it!¡± Qiao Ruowei instantly kneeled and said in a deep voice, ¡°Lord, I beg of you, help me save my grandfather!¡± Saying so, she bowed deeply and kowtowed. Link lowered his head, looked at her, and then asked, ¡°You made it so far just so that I will save your grandfather?¡± She raised her head. ¡°Yes!¡± ¡°Are you very close to your grandfather?¡± ¡°He¡¯s my only family in this world!¡± Qiao Ruowei¡¯s eyes slightly reddened. Hearing this, Link squinted his eyes. ¡°I understand!¡± He nodded insipidly, neither agreeing nor rejecting her. Qiao Ruowei¡¯s eyes contained puzzlement within, but she didn¡¯t dare to ask, in fear of angering Link. Link suddenly stretched out his palm and said, ¡°Give me the dagger!¡± Qiao Ruowei was dazed for a while, then hurriedly ced her dagger in Link¡¯s palm. This was only an ordinary dagger made frommon iron. It was sharp enough, but it wasn¡¯t durable. After Qiao Ruowei used it against the dark creatures for so long, cracks had already appeared on it. Supreme Blessing! recited Link in his heart. Instantly, silver light gathered andnded on the dagger like drops of starlight. Qiao Ruowei clearly saw the cracks on the dagger slowly disappear. In its ce was a sharpness she had never seen before. Ding! [Blessing sessful!] [Ding! Congrattions on obtaining Kiss of the Viper (Gold)] [Kiss of the Viper] Grade: Gold Strength: 20 Intelligence: 23 Constitution: 15 Agility: 30 Additional skills: [Toxicity] (Passive): When attacking, there is a 10% probability of inflicting [Poison] effect to the target. Stackable. Qiao Ruowei received the dagger, sensing the information that appeared in her mind. The instant she held the dagger, her whole person became different. She felt lighter, stronger, and her senses seemed to be more clear! Her mouth instantly opened up slightly, and she showed a surprised expression. Is this... the dagger I passed to him just now? Why did it be so powerful suddenly? She couldn¡¯t help but look towards Link¡¯s palm. Could it be that those hands have the ability to turn stone into gold? Then, she heard Link insipidly say, ¡°I don¡¯t have time to waste on things like saving people. Take the dagger and go save him yourself!¡± Qiao Ruowei¡¯s face stiffened when she heard the words, then lowered her head in disappointment. However, she knew that she didn¡¯t have any right in asking Link to do something for her. She was already very lucky to be able to obtain such a powerful dagger! She nodded and said, ¡°I understand!¡± ncing at the almost dark sky, Link said, ¡°After sunrise tomorrow, I will leave the school and hunt the dark creatures in other areas. If you don¡¯t return by then, we won¡¯t wait for you!¡± Qiao Ruowei bit her lips softly and nodded her head heavily. ¡°Okay!¡± Link nodded and said, ¡°Go!¡± Qiao Ruowei clenched the dagger tightly and quickly left. Looking at the direction where Qiao Ruowei left, Luo Xinghe muttered, ¡°There are so many dark creatures outside. I wonder if she can make it back alive?¡± ¡°Whether she lives or dies, it¡¯s up to her to decide. It has nothing to do with others!¡± Link¡¯s eyes were calm as ever, undisrupted at all. ¡°Then... what should we do next?¡± ¡°Clear all the dark creatures in the school first! If any items or whatever drop, bring them to me!¡± Link insipidly said. The dark creatures in Dragon City No. 1 Middle School had already been almost wiped out by Link previously. Xue Linglong, Luo Xingyao, and the rest were enough to take care of the remaining dark creatures. On one hand, this would save Link a lot of trouble. On the other hand, the EXP gained from killing these dark creatures was too little for Link; there wouldn¡¯t be much use in obtaining these experience points himself. Therefore, he might as well let the others kill these remaining dark creatures and level up from the experience points gained. There would only be value in them for Link if they became stronger. ... Night. They directly stayed in the hostel for the teachers in Dragon City No. 1 Middle School. The entire city¡¯s circuits were almostpletely destroyed by dark creatures, resulting in everything being pitch ck. They could only use candles for light. Luckily, gas and such could still be used, so Yang Xuerou cooked a hot dinner for them. After dinner, they sat together as a group, listening to Link¡¯s ns for the next day. ¡°First thing is resources. There are tworge-sized supermarkets outside the school. For other necessities, bring back as much as you can. However, you guys must definitely bring back all the food and water there! ¡°Also, there are quite a number of frozen ingredients stored in the food street nearby. There¡¯s enough food there for us to eat for a long time! For this matter, Luo Xinghe, you are in charge!¡± Luo Xinghe hesitated and asked, ¡°There are so many things to carry. Do we have enough people?¡± ¡°Aren¡¯t there still many students left in the school?¡± Link insipidly said. ¡°They... will they help?¡± After what Link did today, everyone was probably terrified of Link now. Why would theye to help his group carry stuff? ¡°Ha...¡± Linkughed softly and said, ¡°Once they be hungry and thirsty, they will work!¡± Hearing this, everyone was dazed. Xue Linglong¡¯s eyes brightened and said, ¡°What the Lord means is that they will have food and water if they help, and none otherwise?¡± Link nced at her. ¡°Clever!¡± ¡°Then, what if someone doesn¡¯t want to help but still wants to eat?¡± Luo Xinghe asked. ¡°If that¡¯s the case, do you still need me to teach you?¡± Link looked at him insipidly and killing intent shed in his eye. Luo Xinghe instantly lowered his head and said, ¡°I understand!¡± ¡°Not just the students, but the survivors outside can also perform freebor for us too! Just kill those that are unwilling to follow orders!¡± ¡°Yes!¡± Everyone nodded. ¡°Also, another important thing is to search for high-level dark creatures!¡± Link then said, ¡°They have to be at the same level as the Undead Knight Commander at least!¡± ¡°Xue Linglong will go one direction, and Luo Xingyao another. Sister Xuerou... after buffing them, follow me!¡± Ever since Link said those words to Yang Xuerou in the morning, the way they addressed each other changed. Yang Xuerou started to ept Link¡¯s ideas; she also became used to following his lead. Link felt very pleased with her changes. Chapter 22: Leaving The School

Chapter 22: Leaving The School

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Taking into ount that while Holy Priest was a Legend-grade profession, they were weak inbat. Thus, Link simply kept her by his side. At least her grasp of the various buff skills would be more and more adept under Link¡¯s guidance. She could greatly boost thebat ability and endurance power of the people around her. This also had to do with her talent! ¡°Regardless of whether you get any results, you are to return to the school every three hours to report the situation. ¡°If you have found them, don¡¯t alert them! Come back and tell me! ¡°Any other questions?¡± Link¡¯s final sentence fell as he swept a nce at them. ¡°No!¡± said everyone in unison. ¡°That¡¯s all then!¡± ... Everyone separately went off to their assigned rooms to rest. Link leaned against the headboard, both arms behind his head, as he sunk into thought. ¡°Ten days... It¡¯s a little tight!¡± Although the siege was a great crisis, it would also be a really huge opportunity if they could withstand the test of dark creatures. Not to mention that the massive number of dark creatures represented arge amount of EXP, equipment, items, skill books... All cities that could be preserved in the first siege would be the few home cities of the entire Blue Star. They would be the core of the Doomsday era! They would also be the greatest safeguard for [Doomsday Online] yers to survive in this apocalyptic world. Home cities came with protective auras. Creatures that were offensive to yers would not appear within a certain radius of them. Moreover, some yers could acquire unique [Life ss] professional skills inside home cities. These skills could allow one to cultivate rations, refine medicines, forge equipment and all sorts of items, and more. This formed a brand-new production chain in the Doomsday era, providing resources and reserves for [Doomsday Online] yers. Humankind relied on home cities to survive and multiply, to keep the fire alive and continue civilization. If one was the master of the home cities, one would be able to gain plenty of indescribable benefits. Link¡¯s road to the peak in this lifetime had to start from the home cities! For the level-ups of [Doomsday Online] yers, other than killing monsters to gain EXP, various kinds of cultivation was another avenue. Limit training could improve constitution, strength, and agility. Meditation could boost the intelligence attribute. Only, few people would choose these methods in general. One was very dull and very tiring, while the other did not give obvious gains. It often required a lot of time to raise their attributes by one or two points. However, there were also exceptions. Some people who were more talented could always be struck by inspiration during cultivation and be suddenly enlightened. They either grasped a certain kind of rare skill or gained a powerful advancement in a certain attribute. However, such things only came by chance. Thus, many people simply treated them as stories to listen to. But Link was different; he had tasted the benefits of sudden enlightenment. His Epic-grade [Void Summoner] profession in his previous life had been something he gained from the strange experience of when his mind was roaming the Sea of the Void during meditation. He was the kind of person whose awakening was acquired. To him, meditation had already be a habit, even though the present him no longer needed to bet on that sort of luck and could gain lots of unbelievable benefits just with his talent. Moreover, meditation¡¯s resting effects were much better than that of sleeping. ... Dawn the next day. The sky was still dark. Link opened his eyes on the bed, feeling fresh and energetic. Looking around, Angel Yuna quietly kept watch by his side. The golden holy light that she radiated caused this room with no candles to remain bright. He got up and left the room,ing to the corridor outside and stretched himself. Unfortunately, the bodies everywhere in this campus had already begun to stink. The stench diffused through the air, spoiling his mood a little. Creak! The door of the next room opened all of a sudden, and Yang Xuerou walked out. Presently, she was dressed in ck casual wear. The slightly loose and baggy clothes concealed her beautiful figure but gave her a different kind of charm. ¡°Link, you¡¯re... up so early!¡± She was rather surprised to see Link. ¡°You¡¯re notte either!¡± Link said without giving a definite answer. She lifted the hair before her forehead and said with a smile, ¡°I nned on waking up earlier to make breakfast for all of you...¡± ¡°No need! We¡¯ll just grab some bread, milk, and whatnot and share themter!¡± Having struggled in the darkness for so many years in his previous life, Link was extremely self-disciplined. Now, they ought to economize wherever possible with their quality of life in such times. It wouldn¡¯t be toote to enjoy after the home cities were secured. Yang Xuerou nodded upon hearing him. She then went to stand beside Link¡ªshoulder to shoulder¡ªand stopped speaking. About two minutester, Xue Linglong and Luo Xingyao walked out from their rooms at the same time. Luo Xinghe also poked his head out of the room on the other end. ¡°Let¡¯s move!¡± Link said coolly and walked ahead. ... The dark creatures within the campus had long been purged. They were silent throughout the journey. When they arrived at the school gates, Luo Xinghe took the initiative to go forward to undo the chains on the tall metal gates. But just then, Link¡¯s brows knitted as he looked towards the darkness ahead. ¡°Who¡¯s there?¡± Luo Xingyao also sensed the anomaly. In the blink of an eye, she nocked an arrow and drew the bow, aiming it in the direction that Link looked at. Patter patter! Slightly heavy footsteps sounded increasingly clear in the darkness, and a slender silhouette gradually appeared in the sights of the crowd. ¡°Qiao Ruowei?¡± Xue Linglong¡¯s eyes were slightly narrowed. The person shockingly turned out to be Qiao Ruowei, who had left alone to go save her grandfather. She currently had a battered appearance. She was covered in wounds, and many spots were still bleeding. Her steps were heavy, her eyes swollen andckluster. She had clearly cried hard. Before she came close, a strong sorrowful aura surged towards them. Everyone exchanged nces, having vague guesses at heart. Link looked at her. ¡°You¡¯re back?¡± ¡°Mm!¡± Qiao Ruowei nodded, her voice was very hoarse. ¡°Tend to her wounds, and let¡¯s get going!¡± said Link to Yang Xuerou after turning slightly. He then headed off in a certain direction first. The rest immediately followed. Yang Xuerou went up close, her delicate palm pressing lightly on Qiao Ruowei¡¯s head. Soon, her body emitted a milky-white radiance, which was infused into Qiao Ruowei¡¯s body. The wounds on Qiao Ruowei¡¯s body swiftly healed at a rate visible to the naked eye. ¡°Are you okay?¡± Yang Xuerou asked softly. Qiao Ruowei shook her head in silence and followed behind Link andpany. ... On the streets, dark creatures could be seen everywhere. The majority were existences at the level of Skeleton Swordsmen. There were also a considerable number of Undead Knights. Link suddenly stopped in his steps, and nonchntly called out, ¡°Qiao Ruowei!¡± Qiao Ruowei went forward and bowed her head. ¡°Yes, Lord!¡± ¡°Know how to lure monsters?¡± ¡°Hmm?¡± Qiao Ruowei lifted her head, some puzzlement in her red and swollen eyes. ¡°Go around in front of these monsters, lure them together, and bring them to us!¡± Link gave a simple exnation. ¡°I can try!¡± Qiao Ruowei nodded and ran towards the closest Skeleton Swordsman with her dagger in hand. The Skeleton Swordsman was rmed and chased her. Qiao Ruowei spun on her feet and dashed towards the next closest dark creatures. She repeated this a few times, and the dark creatures behind her back multiplied. There were a good 20 to 30 of them. The stir became greater and greater too. Gradually, several Undead Knights also followed. The Undead Knights were extremely fast, and Qiao Ruowei was almost struck by their spears a few times, but she always managed to dodge them riskily in the most critical moment. Link watched for a while and said, ¡°That will do!¡± Qiao Ruowei gritted her teeth, continuously tumbled on the ground several times, and avoided the charge of an Undead Knight. Then, she ran madly in the direction where Link andpany stood. Soon, this group of dark creatures arrived in front of them. Luo Xingyao and the others wore solemn looks and raised their weapons. They held their breaths, preparing for a battle. ¡°Yuna!¡± Link called out lightly. ¡°Yes, Master!¡± Yuna understood tacitly. She fluttered her wings and flew into the low altitude. Her scepter was raised high, and a golden radiance gathered. For a moment, it was as bright as day. ¡°Holy Light Purification!¡± Chapter 23: Robe of Soul

Chapter 23: Robe of Soul

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Golden rays poured onto this group of dark creatures¡¯ bodies like water. At this moment, everyone was dumbfounded by the sight. Although Yang Xuerou had witnessed it before, she still could not help feeling shocked from the heart. In the past, she had really only seen such a brilliant scene on television. That extremely warm, golden holy light acted like a bone-corroding poison when itnded on those dark creatures. It instantly put them in a living hell and destroyed their bodies. A good 20 to 30 dark creatures actually became absolutely nothing within the blink of an eye. What a terrifying power! This is the might of an Angel? They dazedly looked at Yuna, who was in mid-air, then nced at Link¡ªwho had an indifferent look¡ªthe reverence in their eyes growing even stronger. They could not help but grasp the weapons in their hands, thinking inwardly, Following such a Lord is way too stressful! Pant! Qiao Ruowei panted heavily. When she turned back to look, she found that all the dark creatures chasing her had already vanished. Inwardly, her thoughts of following Link became even firmer. Last night, when she¡¯d rushed to her grandfather¡¯s residence, she happened to witness the sight of her grandfather being trampled to death by Undead Knights. Before she could grieve, she was hunted by a big bunch of dark creatures for the entire night. After living through despair and darkness, one then learned of the advantages of power. The party proceeded forward, walking from the start of the street to the end of it. At intervals, they would make Qiao Ruowei go forth to lure and gather all the dark creatures and then have Yuna cast [Holy Light Purification] to purge them altogether. They were extremely efficient, almost just pushing ahead. Meanwhile, Qiao Ruowei was also gradually bing proficient in the various skills, moving from the initial awkwardness to doing the job with skill and ease. Rapid progress! Link nodded inwardly. ¡°Not just a born Assassin, but also a budding scout...¡± ... About ten minutester, the party arrived at a crossroads. In front was one of the biggest supermarkets near Dragon City No. 1 Middle School. The supermarket¡¯s entrance was wide open. There was a mess everywhere and dismembered bodies all around. It was evident that the concentrated crowds here before [Doomsday Online] had started had beenpletely massacred by the dark creatures before they could retreat. The originally bright and clean floor tiles were now nauseating at just one nce. ¡°Qiao Ruowei, Luo Xinghe, go check out the inside. Don¡¯t be bellicose when you encounter dark creatures, lure them out!¡± Link instructed coolly. Theyout of the supermarket was too narrow. Fighting would easily damage the resources that they needed. ¡°Yes! Lord!¡± The two bowed and entered the supermarket, each on one side. The rest waited outside. Very soon, both of them walked out from inside the supermarket and said, ¡°Lord, there isn¡¯t a single dark creature inside.¡± Link arched a brow upon hearing that. Never mind, it is even better that there are none. It saved us trouble. ¡°We¡¯ll go to the next supermarket!¡± Dark creatures did not have too much ability to think. In the situation where they weren¡¯t attracted by opposing targets, the possibility of them roaming within an extensive range was close to zero. Now that they¡¯d cleaned up the dark creatures in this stretch, no other dark creatures would appear within a short period. ... The party arrived at another street not far out and immediately found a slightly different situation. Simrly, there were bodies everywhere. However, these bodies weren¡¯t like the dismembered bodies seen earlier. Most of these bodies were close to beingplete; only there were many ck holes the size of a pinky finger on them. Looking closely, the fresh blood on all the dead¡¯s skin and flowing on the ground was ck like ink. Xue Linglong¡¯s beautiful brows knitted together as she asked in puzzlement, ¡°They¡¯ve been... poisoned?¡± ¡°It¡¯s Undead Archers!¡± Link pointed out indifferently. Undead Archers, a very difficult existence among the low-level dark creatures, had the ability for long-distance attacks. Their levels ranged between Stage One, Level 5 and Stage One, Level 7. These dark creatures were slightly higher leveled than Skeleton Swordsmen. They usually did not appear alone, with at least a dozen to 20 in a group. Whenever they met attackable targets, they would fire in good order. Their arrows werepletely condensed from the mist of death. The arrows¡¯ prative force was extremely powerful. Moreover, living flesh and blood would swiftly dissolve in it, causing living creatures to die from being corroded by the power of death, like a rank poison. Link¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly. He swept a nce at the high-rise buildings around, the corner of his lips lifting a little. ¡°Luo Xingyao, use your bow and arrow and get the bunch of fellows hiding all around out here!¡± Luo Xingyao nodded when she heard that before slowly walking to the forefront of the group. She then closed her eyes lightly, raising her senses to the maximum. All of a sudden, her eyes burst open. The loading and drawing of the bow were done in one breath. Choo! An arrow swiftly cut through the darkness and shot into a certain room on the third level. Thuck! In an instant, gruesome shrieks emerged from all around. More than ten dark figures appeared from the darkness sessively. Their bodies were wrapped in ink-like dark robes, and the two spots of green light beneath their hoods were very chilling. They each held a skull bone bow in their hands. One of them was especiallynky; the longbow in its hand was also almost as tall as a human. Undead Archer Captain, Stage Two elite monster. Upon seeing it, the corners of Link¡¯s mouth curved up slightly. There is finally a small boss. No matter how small a mosquito¡¯s leg is, it is still flesh. I¡¯ll ept it! ... Very soon, they stood in a row, aimed at Link andpany, and drew their bows in unison. Hum hum! A ck mist of death lingered in the air as pitch-ck, icy arrows abruptly appeared on the originally empty bows. As this group of Undead Archers released their fingers, these arrows suddenly drew trajectories and flew precisely towards Link and the others. ¡°Lord, watch out!¡± Luo Xinghe lifted his sword and rushed to Link¡¯s front within a few steps. He danced wildly, his defense almost imprable. Xue Linglong had alsoe to Link¡¯s front. She held the [Spear of the Frosty Moon] in her hand and attempted to swipe away all of the arrows. Yet Link¡¯s countenance remained unchanged as he stoodfortably in the same spot. ¡°A bunch of dirty evil beings dare to disrespect my master too?¡± Yuna¡¯s holy and gorgeous face was also frosty. She suddenly leaped into the air, and her two snow-white wings abruptly expanded and turned into two massive shields,pletely surrounding Link. Holy light permeated the wings, making them scorching hot. Those arrows condensed from the power of deathpletely dissolved and disintegrated before they got close. ¡°This is... way too powerful!¡± Luo Xinghe smacked his lips,menting in disbelief as he stared at Yuna¡¯s back view in the middle of the air. ¡°Tsk tsk, with this person by the Lord¡¯s side, we really have no presence at all¡ª¡± ¡°We have to improve our abilities quickly; otherwise, we will truly be good for nothing!¡± Everyone gritted their teeth inwardly, their yearning for strength bing increasingly strong. After Yuna blocked all these arrows, she flew higher and higher, flying directly towards the group of Undead Archers. Wielding her scepter, the colossal holy light was brilliant like the rising sun. It instantly purged all of them. Soon after, Yuna returned to Link¡¯s front with two more items in hand¡ªa bone bow and a long, ck robe. [Skull Bone Bow]: Iron grade. [Dead Souls¡¯ Cloth Robe]: Silver grade. Tsk tsk, he had killed so many Skeleton Swordsmen and Skeleton Soldiers previously, and even a substantial number of Undead Knights, but not one item had dropped. Now that they¡¯d killed a dozen Stage One Undead Archers and one Stage Two Undead Archer Captain, two pieces of equipment had been dropped at one go. This was indeed [Doomsday Online], baffling item drop frequency! Link shook his head. He first held [Dead Souls¡¯ Cloth Robe] in his hand and used [Supreme Blessing]. Buzz! The next moment, a radiance danced, and the ck robe in his hand started to turn magnificent. [Ding! Blessing seeded!] [Ding! Congrattions on obtaining Robe of Soul (Epic)] [Robe of Soul] Grade: Epic Strength: 270 Intelligence: 350 Constitution: 400 Agility: 290 Additional Skill 1: [Soul¡¯s Will] (Passive): User¡¯s base [Intelligence] +100% Additional Skill 2: [Soul Energy Bombing] (Active Skill): Able to materialize mental power to attack targets, causing extra damage twice of [Intelligence] attribute.

Chapter 24: Second Summoning

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Good stuff! Epic-grade equipmentpletely prepared for magic professions. The corner of Link¡¯s mouth turned up. He directly put on the [Robe of Soul]. The [Robe of Soul] was a moon-white long robe. It appeared to be perfectly pure, not stained with the slightest dust. Wind blew past, and patches of the lotus flower patterns¡ªoutlined using gold thread¡ªrippled with the wind. Coupled with Link¡¯s cold appearance and unique aura, it was a splendid sight. ¡°Tsk tsk... If Lord were to grow out his hair, he would totally be a handsome man from ancient times!¡± The gazes of the few girls by the side could not help but linger on Link for some time. Link was also rather satisfied. Most importantly, his attribute screen was updated once again. Name: Link Profession: Great Void Taboo Master [Taboo] Race: Human Level: Stage One, Level 5 Strength: 1,145 Intelligence: 1,207 Constitution: 1,258 Agility: 1,074 Equipment: Red Sky [Epic-grade], Robe of Soul [Epic-grade] Skill: Void Summoning Spell, Red Sky God me, Holy Charge (Legend), Soul Energy Bombing, Turbulent Soul Tide Talent: Supreme Blessing [SSS-grade] Summoned creature: Holy Angel (Super God) Status: . Godhood Ladder (from summoned creature): Obtain 30% of the current summoned creatures¡¯ attributes! . Holy Heart ¡¤ Invigorating Spell (from Holy Priest): injury and energy recovery speed +50% (PS: Attribute= basic attribute +equipment attribute bonus +summoned creatures¡¯ attribute bonus) This [Robe of Soul] had directly pushed his four basic attributes past the thousand mark. In this current period of time, Link could totally look down on all the [Doomsday Online] yers in the world. Who else was there? The attribute with the greatest advancement was [Intelligence]. It increased by 400 to 500 points at one go, reaching as high as 1,207 points. This also meant one other thing to Link. He could summon his second summoned creature now! Link¡¯s profession was a Taboo-grade [Great Void Taboo Master], and it was supported by the Taboo-grade [Void God Summoning Ring]. While these two things guaranteed that not one of the creatures he summoned would be a substandard one, the one problemid with Link¡¯s prior mental strength¡ªit could only sustain one summoned creature at the level of Angel Yuna by his side. In line with the principle of quality before quantity, Link simply did not carry out the second summoning. After all, Yuna¡¯sbat ability was still very awesome. In addition, his personal capability was also outrageously strong; he wasn¡¯t in a rush for the time being. However, now that Link¡¯s [Intelligence] attribute had been enhanced by so much at one go, Link immediately felt that the imperceptible but inexorable tense feeling had vanished. ¡°Since this is the case, I shall not wait!¡± Link breathed out lightly, his mental power surging into the [Void God Summoning Ring], which resembled a ck sapphire in his hand. ¡°Powerhouses from a farawaynd, heed my summon... ¡°ept the imprint of the Void, be my sharpest sword!¡± Rumble! As Link¡¯s low and deep chant fell, a massive hexagram suddenly emerged on the surrounding ground. Strong divine light of all colors fell from the sky, winding around Link. At this moment, Link¡¯s clothes fluttered. Cloaked by infinite divine light, he was like an ancient god. The ground shook violently and cracks as thick as arms spread out like a spiderweb. The surrounding buildings began to copse in session, seemingly unable to withstand the invisible coercion. Boom! The hexagram¡¯s glow reached the limit of its radiance and turned into a pir of light, shooting towards the sky, straight into the clouds. In a sh, it tore the night sky shrouded by gray clouds, revealing a deep, hollow passage that seemed to be directly connected to the other shore of the starry sky. Roar! At this moment, the whole Dragon City fell into anxiety and restlessness. Large numbers of dark creatures fell into amotion. Some powerful high-level bosses even snarled at the sky, venting their inward fear. ... Some ce in Dragon City. Inside arge vi. Four to five big and tall, burly men with tattoos were gathered,ughing and talking. By almost every person was a trembling woman standing next to them, massaging their shoulders and pouring drinks. On the second level of this vi, a middle-aged man in ck tights sat on the sofa, smoking an extremely expensive cigar in his mouth. Before him knelt a middle-aged couple; presently, they were already covered with wounds. ¡°Hehe, old fellow... weren¡¯t you quite arrogant?¡± said the middle-aged man in ck with a smile as he looked scornfully at the couple before him. He, Tang Ye, used to be the third-in-charge of Dragon City¡¯s biggest gang, Ghost Begonia. When Doomsday arrived, he took advantage of the fact that he was still in his prime and was ruthless enough and killed a considerable amount of skeletons at one go. He gained a Gold-grade [Fighter] hidden profession, greatly boosting his capability. In one swoop, he finished off the first and second-in-charge, then led a group of ouws under him to burn, kill, and pige. They took whatever good stuff they saw and grabbed any beautiful women they encountered. Look, they¡¯d now taken a fancy to the vi that belonged to this man before him and directly upied it. The man disagreed, so he gave the two a beating. ¡°Big brother, big brother, we were wrong... let us off. Feel free to take whatever you like in the house. Stay for as long as you like!¡± said the man with a badly battered face. The corners of Tang Ye¡¯s mouth curved up upon hearing that. Then, he set his gaze on the beautiful middle-aged woman who still looked attractive. He had a lustful glow in his eyes as he said, ¡°How good would it be if you were like this long ago? My mood isn¡¯t too good right now. It¡¯s not too much to have your wifefort me, right?¡± ¡°What are you going to do?¡± There was a huge change in the duo¡¯s countenances. ¡°Hahaha...¡± With a nce from Tang Ye, the subordinate beside him immediately held the man down at the side while he walked towards the beautiful woman. Rumble! It was then that the entire vi suddenly began shaking. Cement chips flew everywhere; everyone was unbnced on their feet and almost fell. ¡°What¡¯s happening?¡± Tang Ye¡¯s expression was slightly grim. ¡°Is it an earthquake?¡± By the window, a subordinate called out, ¡°Master Tang, things are bad. Quickly,e look...¡± Tang Ye hurriedly walked over. When he looked out the window, he was instantly stunned. In the dark sky, an area enveloped by gold light had strangely appeared. Among which, divine light flickered, and indistinct roars emerged. Swoosh! All of a sudden, the area shrouded in gold light presented another sky. Within, divine monsters were roaming the ground, magnificent demons ruling the world, and divine beings stood in great numbers. There was the might of a ruler. Crack! A big and tall figure suddenly appeared between the heavens and earth. Both hands raised, abruptly shaking the zenith! ¡°There... exists such a formidable force in this world?¡± At this moment, all the survivors in Dragon City were dumbfounded. Chapter 25: [God Devourer Ant]

Chapter 25: [God Devourer Ant]

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios The sky seemed to tear apart, and a meteor-like light fell from the sky. Buzz! A huge gust of air swept outwards, and the people around Link could hardly open their eyes. They could only vaguely see a tall figure suddenly appearing amidst the smoke. [Ding! Congrattions on summoning God Devourer Ant (Super God)!] [God Devourer Ant] Grade: Super God (Advanceable) Race: God Devourer Ant Race Description: A wild, primordial species known for their invincible power. At its peak, it can tear the sky apart and touch the forbidden. Level: Stage One, Level 1 Strength: 130 Intelligence: 53 Constitution: 104 Agility: 78 Skill 1: [Heavenly Power] (Active Skill): God Devourer Ant can execute a powerful attack that results in damage ten-fold the [Strength] attribute. Cooldown time: 3 seconds. Skill 2: [Demonic Frenzy] (Active Skill): God Devourer Ant bloodline ability. All attributes +300% for a short period. Body mutation. Effectsts for 30 seconds. God Devourer Ant bes weak for 30 minutes after the effect ends. Skill 3: [Supreme Zerg] (Passive Skill): The God Devourer Ant¡¯s bloodline can weaken the attributes of enemies against the Zerg. When facing low-level Zerg, there is a chance that they will be fully obedient. Status: Aura of the Gods (All attributes +30%) If Holy Angel Yuna was a summoned creature withprehensive abilities¡ªhealing, purifying, attacking, and protecting others¡ªthen the God Devourer Ant¡¯s existence was solely for battles. The God Devourer Ant¡¯s basic [Strength] attribute was outrageously high. All of its initial skills were biased towards power outbursts and could kill people with one blow. The most important thing was its passive skill, which had an absolute suppressing effect on Zergs. This skill didn¡¯t seem useful at first nce, but Link knew that their main enemies would no longer be dark creatures after the first siege on the cities. It would be an endless Zerg swarm. That would be the time when the real Doomsday began. If human beings didn¡¯t rely on the main cities¡¯ protection, they would have no chance of living once they encountered the Zerg swarm in the wild! Now that he owned this God Devourer Ant, Link gained the ability to be invincible when the Zerg swarm arrived in advance. ¡°Zhi zhi!¡± The light faded, and an insect half the height of a human slowly appeared. Its entire body was covered with a ck-colored carapace. Through the partially exposed areas, blood could clearly be seen flowing inside. The insect had a pair of ck and gold wings, which were thin as cicada wings but full of coldness. They could easily tear through any metal in the world. Its body surface was full ofplex and mysterious blue-purple lines, which easily made one immersed in it after one nce. It seemed to be filled with the purest truth between heaven and earth. On its coldpound eyes were in, simple-looking, and thin feelers. Below was a pair of small but hard and sharp mouthparts. This part of the body was what the God Devourer Ant used to attack. It was its most powerful body part. It could shred and swallow even God. All things aside, its appearance alone was very cool. Its body shone as it came to Link, humming in a low tone as if surrendering to please him. The people around looked at each other and saw theplexity and horror in each other¡¯s eyes. This terrifying creature¡ªwhich appeared like the world was breaking apart¡ªactually obeyed Link like the angel? For an instant, everyone¡¯s thoughts about how they had seen a small fraction of Link¡¯s strength disappearedpletely. Their growing respect reced those thoughts. Angel Yuna couldn¡¯t help but take another look at her newpanion, and strong feelings of jealousy shed in her beautiful eyes. She could sense its fierce and hostile aura. Its icy eyes seemed like they wouldn¡¯t flutter even if it ughtered the whole world. Its mouthpiece made her heart go especially cold. If it weren¡¯t for the unspoken agreement they both had with Link, she wouldn¡¯t be able to stay so close to it so peacefully. They would likely fight each other to their deaths at first nce. ¡°Let me see your real strength!¡± Link looked at the God Devourer Ant andmanded it indifferently. ¡°Zhi!¡± The God Devourer Ant fluttered its wings then disappeared almost instantly. It was so fast! Everyone was dumbfounded. Boom! A loud noise could be heard not too far away. A dark shadow shed and directly charged through several walls, reaching the depths of the building. Roar¡ª Suddenly, an eerie howling sounded in the darkness before dawn. [Ding! Congrattions on killing a Skeleton Swordsman. Gained EXP +10!] ... [Ding! Congrattions on killing an Undead Knight. Gained EXP +100!] [Ding! Cross-level kill detected. Gained 100% additional EXP!] ... [Ding! Detected that you have killed an Undead Archer. Gained EXP +50!] Link nodded slightly upon hearing the multiple notifications in his mind. In terms ofbat, the God Devourer Ant was indeed slightly better than a Holy Angel. In less than a minute, the God Devourer Ant killed more than 30 dark creatures. The heads of those dark creatures exploded with just the sh of a dark shadow. Its actions could not be seen by the naked eye. Simple yet harsh! Even the Stage Two Undead knights were instantly killed by [Heavenly Power]¡¯s ten-fold damage. It was terrifying! At the same time, the God Devourer Ant directly leveled up twice and reached Stage One, Level 3, thanks to the dark creatures, increasing its basic attributes. Of course, Link also saw his attributes increase by 30% of the God Devourer Ant¡¯s attributes via his passive skill, [Godhood Ladder]. Although it was only tens of points, it was equivalent to the attribute increase that other Doomsday yers received when they leveled up more than ten times. The God Devourer Ant soon appeared before Link again. It hummed nonstop as if it were asking for recognition and showing off. ¡°Not bad! I¡¯ll call you God Devourer in the future!¡± said Link, satisfied. ¡°Zhi zhi!¡± The God Devourer fluttered its wings, seemingly very happy. Link nodded, looked around, and raised his brows slightly. He ordered coolly, ¡°The dark creatures around are too far apart. It¡¯ll take time even if we want to attract them.¡± ¡°The few of you split up into two groups and clear the dark creatures around. God Devourer, Yuna, both of you too!¡± ¡°Yes, Lord!¡± ¡°Yes, Master!¡± Everyone nodded except Xue Linglong, who raised her head and hesitated. ¡°Lord, if we¡¯re all gone, won¡¯t it be dangerous for you to stay here alone?¡± Link was stunned, then the corners of his mouth curved up. Before Link could say anything, Yuna looked at Link, then decisively replied, ¡°Master is very powerful. Nothing will be able to threaten him!¡± She was well aware of how powerful her seemingly weak master was. The God Devourer Ant buzzed in agreement as well. ¡°Did you hear that? Go along...¡± Link said coolly. Then, he suddenly thought of something. ¡°If you encounter a high-level boss, let God Devourer and Yuna handle it. If they are not able to take care of it, wait for me!¡± God Devourer and Yuna were Link¡¯s summoned creatures. Their kills would count towards Link¡¯s EXP. Moreover, they couldmunicate telepathically. No matter how far apart they were, they couldmunicate, which allowed Link to know what was happening at the first moment. ¡°All of you must clear the dark creatures along these two streets before dawn! Only then can we ensure that nothing will go wrong when we move the supplies!¡± ¡°Understood!¡± Everyone nodded, then left separately. Chapter 26: Dark Magus

Chapter 26: Dark Magus

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Somewhere in the vi. Tang Ye looked back angrily, his expressionplicated. There was fear, wonder, and disbelief on his face... ¡°Could it be that a meteorite fell on Dragon City?¡± he guessed. ¡°Master Tang, it doesn¡¯t look like it. Shouldn¡¯t a meteorite¡¯s impact be very powerful? If the disturbance just now really is a meteorite, I¡¯m afraid it wouldn¡¯t affect Dragon City only. The entire Blue Star will feel its effects!¡± ¡°But look at the city now! It¡¯s peaceful!¡±mented one of his subordinates. When Tang Ye heard his subordinate say that, he realized that it was true. ¡°What could it be then?¡± ¡°I know! It must be an adventure!¡± a subordinate suddenly cried out. Everyone looked at him. ¡°Haven¡¯t you read novels? If something strange drops from the sky, something exciting will happen! Now that the world has be like this, nothing is strange anymore. Perhaps a godly artifact or something has appeared!¡± A glint of greed shed in Tang Ye¡¯s eyes upon hearing this. If he managed to get his hands on a godly artifact, he would be able to aplish so much more in this apocalyptic world. Thus, he immediately licked his lips and said coldly, ¡°Call everyone. Let¡¯s go and have a look!¡± ¡°Yes. Master Tang, then... what about those chicks?¡± Tang Ye icily red at the subordinate who had just spoken and disdainfully said, ¡°They¡¯ll just be a burden to bring along. Just kill them all!¡± ¡°Kill them?¡± His subordinate looked a little unwilling. ¡°Lust-driven idiot, you can have any woman you want if we really get the godly artifact!¡± ¡°Yes!¡± ... Link brought out an antique Chinese chair from an abandoned house along the roadside, then put it in the middle of the road beforefortably settling down on it. He closed his eyes and hummed a tune, totally ignoring all the corpses around him. Suddenly, he stopped swaying and slowly got up. The corners of his mouth curved up into a smile. ¡°Found the big guy. That was fast!¡± He then stood up and rushed off in a specific direction. Through their spiritual connection, Yuna had informed him that they had identally awakened a Dark Magus while hunting dark creatures earlier. Dark Magus, Stage Three boss! It possessed powerful dark magic attacks, soul attacks, andrge-scale explosive magic. It could even control other dark creatures and make them explode, causing a lot of damage. They were very difficult to deal with! Even among all the dark creatures, Dark Magi were rtively high-leveled existences. The first time Link saw a Dark Magus in his previous life was during a siege. It was practically a mobile turret. He was surprised because he didn¡¯t expect to encounter one so early this time. ... After walking for about five minutes, he heard a series of loud roars. The corners of Link¡¯s mouth curved up. He knew he had reached his destination. Sure enough, he saw a ck figure, shrouded in a magic robe, standing on a small three-story building¡¯s roof after going round the next corner. The figure held a two-meter-long staff in its hand. At the end of the staff was a purple crystal in the shape of a skull. It was surrounded by ck and purple energy rays. On the street below, the figures of Xue Linglong and Yuna were moving quickly. Swoosh! The Dark Magus pointed with its staff, and the surrounding night seemed to be darker. The surrounding air was stained with ink-like power, turning and circling as it wildly swept around the two. Buzz! The next moment, a dark vortex with a five-meter diameter enveloped the entire narrow street. A strong suction force from the center of the vortex caught and tightly held on to the duo. This was a methodmonly used by Dark Magi. Once their targets were devoured by the vortex, they would turn into powder and be an ingredient Dark Magi could use to upgrade themselves. ng! Xue Linglong frowned as she stabbed the [Spear of the Frosty Moon] into the ground, trying to stabilize herself. However, the suction force was too strong. Her actions only offered her temporary relief. She was still being pulled towards the center of the vortex quickly. A long, thin crack appeared on the ground! Yuna¡¯s situation was much better. She fluttered her wings and managed to escape from the vortex¡¯s effective range before the suction reached critical power. When the Dark Magus saw this, it slowly raised its staff again. The purple-ck light suddenly bloomed, and countless ck shadows seeped out of the skull at the top of the staff. Evil spirits filled the sky and began to swarm towards Yuna. The essence of these evil spirits was the power of darkness, which was innately opposed to the power of light. Although light restrained darkness, darkness could also swallow light. Especially now, since the difference between a Stage three Dark Magus and a Stage one Holy Angel was just too big. In [Doomsday Online], a Stage Two, Level 1 had twice the amount of attributespared to a Stage One, Level 9. However, the overall difference in power was about ten times. They were on apletely different level! Stage Three existences were nearly 100 times more powerful than Stage One existences. Stage Three existences had powerful abilities and could not be judged simply based on their attributes. Holy Angel Yuna was a Super God-grade summon¡ªfar more powerful than other summons of the same level. However, her current skill level was simply not high enough to fight a Dark Magus head-on. Once her body of holy light was corroded by the power of darkness, it would be fatal. For now, Yuna could only frantically use the Holy Light to protect herself so as not to let the evil spirits break through her defense. Boom! The Dark Magus¡¯s staff fiercely pounded the ground, and the number of evil spirits in the surrounding area suddenly doubled out of thin air. The evil spirits were everywhere as they swarmed toward Yuna. ¡°Damn it!¡± Yuna tried her best to hold on as helplessness shed in her eyes. Boom! At this moment, a burst of extremely hot mes rose from below. A sea of mes enveloped the night sky! Red Sky God me! Yuna was slightly startled, then a happy expression appeared on her face. ¡°Master!¡± The sea of fire grewrger, turning into a tornado made of wind and fire. It then transformed into a roaring fire dragon. In what seemed like just an instant, it hadpletely devoured the ck evil spirits in the sky. Oh? The Dark Magus¡¯s expression changed, and it subconsciously looked down. All it saw was a young man, wearing a moon-white robe, calmly standing still. One hand was behind the young man¡¯s back, and the other pointed a sword to the ground diagonally. The red light on the sword tip remained. One felt hot just by looking at it. Even one¡¯s eyes would burn just by looking at it. Link¡¯s face was calm as he looked straight at the Dark Magus. ¡°Human...¡± said the Dark Magus hoarsely. Stage Three dark creatures could speak in human tongue. The Dark Magus gripped its staff tightly and began chanting loudly. Dark Explosion! Wow! The pressure in the surroundings suddenly increased, and Link felt as if his body had been shackled. A cloud of highlypressed purple-ck dark energy gushed out from the Dark Magus¡¯s staff. It turned into a beam of light, which shot straight at Link. Rumble! The next moment, an extremely violent explosion urred where Link stood. The ground cracked, buildings copsed, and smoke billowed out. Ah! The Dark Magus let out a contemptuous snort as if mocking the incapable human beings. At this moment, a very strong sense of danger emerged in its consciousness. The Dark Magus jerked its head up and saw a figure leaping high from the copsed building on the opposite side. Then, the figure turned around and charged towards the Dark Magus from above. Holy Charge! Chapter 27: Huge Earning, No loss

Chapter 27: Huge Earning, No loss

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios In the air that was filled with darkness. A figure shrouded in a radiant holy light descended from the sky. ¡°How is this possible? Why is this human still alive?¡± The Dark Magus felt puzzled. In its impression, the humans in this world were extremely weak. It could easily crush arge bunch of them with just one finger. But he seemed to have encountered an exception now! The Dark Magus couldn¡¯t have expected that there was this one person whose attributes had reached four digits in this world where most of the yers¡¯ attributes were below 100! Currently, Link¡¯s attributes could bepletely described as superhuman. With just a jump, he could jump over a building that was only three-stories high. The Dark Magus¡¯s attack just now didn¡¯t even touch a single hair on Link. Holy Charge! Link turned his body after jumping in midair amidst the darkness. A silver-white light shed in his pupils, and his entire person became a spear, cutting through the darkness and charging into the Dark Magus heavily. Boom! A terrifying force directlynded onto the Dark Magus¡¯s body, causing the Dark Magus to be knocked flying. Dense holy light went rampant in its body, causing the Dark Magus to be unable to gather its magic to stabilize itself. Even its [Soul Fire] swayed crazily, causing it to be extremely dizzy. Holy Charge had knock-up, stun, and silence effects. Its body was still in midair now. As an experienced fighter, was it possible that Link would miss this opportunity? [Red Sky] violently gave off a loud sound as warm energy flowed into Link¡¯s right hand, which was holding the sword, and fire-red sword energy was released. Red Sky Sword Energy! Swoosh! The sword energy was extremely sharp and cut off half of the Dark Magus¡¯s body, causing it to yell in pain. Link didn¡¯t stop. His body turned into a phantom, and he disappeared on the spot. Before the Dark Magusnded on the ground, Link grabbed its throat and then mmed it onto the ground. Crack! The surrounding cement roofs instantly shattered crazily, and the cracks spread like cobwebs. Cha! Link raised [Red Sky] up high, and in a sh of light, stabbed it into the Dark Magus¡¯s wide hood. ¡°Ah¡ª¡± The Dark Magus screamed crazily. Its [Soul Fire] became corporeal and burnt the ck magic robe that it wore. Purple-ck energy surged in the surrounding area. The Dark Magus wanted to execute an attack even though it was on the verge of death. Link smiled slightly and twisted his wrist, violently stirring the sword in its eye socket. Buzz! The air suddenly stagnated, and the purple-ck energy that had gathered fell apart. The Dark Magus finally stopped resisting. [Ding! You sessfully killed a Dark Magus. Gained 5,000 EXP!] [Ding! Detected that you have killed a unit that is a higher level than you! Awarded +300% additional EXP!] [Ding! Congrattions on sessfully leveling up to Stage One, Level 6!] ... [Ding! Congrattions on sessfully leveling up to Stage One, Level 8!] ... [Ding! Congrattions on sessfully leveling up to Stage One, Level 10!] ... [Ding! Congrattions on your summoned creature¡ªHoly Angel¡ªsessfully leveling up to Stage One, Level 10!] [Ding! Congrattions on your summoned creature¡ªGod Devourer Ant¡ªsessfully leveling up to Stage One, Level 9!] As expected, killing a higher-leveled creature was the correct path to leveling up quickly. Link smiled, feeling quite happy in his heart. This Dark Magus not only gave him as much as 5,000 EXP, but Link had even gained an additional 300% EXP from the system reward. This allowed him to level up five times directly, reaching the maximum level for Stage One existences. Link noticed that he wasn¡¯t far from reaching Stage Two after taking a close look. Also, his two summoned creatures had leveled up crazily too, each leveling up six times! Their attributes increased like crazy. Name: Link Profession: Great Void Taboo Master (Taboo) Race: Human Level: Stage One, Level 10 Strength: 1,894 Intelligence: 1,932 Constitution: 2,000 Agility: 1,809 Equipment: Red Sky [Epic-grade], Robe of Soul [Epic-grade] Skill: Void Summoning Spell, Red Sky God me, Holy Charge (Legend), Soul Energy Bombing, Turbulent Soul Tide Talent: Supreme Blessing [SSS-grade] Summoned creatures: Holy Angel (Super God), God Devourer Ant (Super God) Status: . Godhood Ladder (from summoned creatures): Obtain 30% of the current summoned creatures¡¯ attributes! . Holy Heart ¡¤ Invigorating Spell (from Holy Priest): Injury and energy recovery speed +50%. (PS: Attribute= basic attribute +equipment attribute bonus +summoned creatures¡¯ attribute bonus) Tsk tsk tsk, these attributes were much higher than a normal Stage Three yer¡¯s standard attributes! Once Link reached Stage Two, and his attributes doubled,bined with his summoned creatures and two Epic-grade items, who could still be a match for him? As he was thinking about this, he saw two golden lights from the corner of his eyes. He forgot to pick up the loot after killing the Boss-level creature! Link walked up and discovered that the Dark Magus left behind two items after it died¡ªa staff and a pair of shoes. Link picked up the pieces of equipment and checked their attributes. [Staff of Magic Source]: Gold-grade. Intelligence: 47 Constitution: 25 Additional skill 1: [Source of Magic] (Passive): The chanting time for dark-type spells is decreased by 20%. Additional skill 2: [Grimoire of Evil] (Passive): The effects of dark-type spells are enhanced by 50%! ¡°This item can be considered top-grade amongst Gold-grade items since it has two additional skills as a Gold-grade item!¡± muttered Link to himself and checked the other item. [Shoes of Darkness]: Gold-grade Strength: 25 Constitution: 26 Additional effect: Reduce iing damage by 20%. Its attributes were normal, and the effect was also not bad. Link considered for a while and blessed the shoes first. [Ding! Congrattions on obtaining Shoes of the Moon Chaser (Epic)!] [Shoes of the Moon Chaser] (Upgradable) Grade: Epic Strength: 270 Intelligence: 340 Constitution: 350 Agility: 423 Additional skill 1: [Moon Chase] (Active Skill): Increases the user¡¯s movement speed by 300% after activation. Caster also obtains [Light Body] status! Duration: 1 minute. Cooldown: 3 minutes. Additional skill 2: [Meteor] (Active Skill): Teleport to any spot within a 20-meter radius. Cooldown: 30 seconds. ¡°A godly item for chasing and self-preservation!¡± Link secretly nodded after seeing the shoes¡¯ attributes and skills. His Agility was high enough now. The shoes¡¯ additional attributes and skills would make him even stronger. It also had an extremely important skill, [Meteor]. It granted one the ability to teleport anywhere within 20 meters. In crucial moments, this skill could turn the tides. This is a huge gain! Links mouth slightly curled upwards and instantly changed into the [Shoes of the Moon Chaser]. He instantly felt his body be much lighter as if he could fly into the air with a single step. Link jumped off the building after turning around. He noticed Xue Linglong sitting in a corner and resting. Her face was pale, obviously badly injured from the battle just now. Link looked down at her and insipidly said, ¡°Your contribution this time is quiterge. I shall reward you when we go back!¡± Xue Linglong was dazed for a while upon hearing this, then became ted. She knew that every item that Link gave were all godly items that others could rarely obtain. Her injury was worth it this time! She suffered no losses! Chapter 28: Survivors

Chapter 28: Survivors

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Link brought Xue Linglong and Yuna back to the spot where the group split up. Luo Xingyao and the others were already waiting for them there. Luo Xingyao¡¯s team had more people, and the God Devourer Ant was also in their team. They didn¡¯t encounter any powerful elite creatures either. The othermon dark creatures they encountered were too weak to even escape from them. ¡°We have finished clearing the dark creatures nearby. We gained an item and a skill book!¡± Luo Xingyao walked up, holding an Iron-grade item in her hand. Link nced down to take a look. It was a light armor that probably dropped from an Undead Archer. He didn¡¯t bother to check its attributes. Instead, he directly took it and blessed it. [Ding! Blessing seeded!] [Ding! Congrattions on obtaining Hunter¡¯s Light Armor (Silver)!] A light shed, and the greyish-ck light armor became silver. Carvings densely covered the armor, making it look much more beautiful than before. A Silver-grade light armor that gave 20 or so points of Constitution and Agility. It had no special effect or skill. Link naturally wasn¡¯t interested in it and directly tossed it to Luo Xingyao, making the others nearby full of envy. At this current period¡ªwhere [Doomsday Online] yers didn¡¯t even have one piece of equipment on average¡ªa Silver-grade item was equivalent to the attributes gained after leveling four to five times. Luo Xingyao directly wore it. Her originally tall and slim figure looked even more handsome and cool with this silver armor on her, adding a bit of special charm to her. Archers required Agility and Constitution to increase their mobility and durability in battle. With this light armor, herbat power had almost doubled! Luo Xingyao¡¯s slightly cold face couldn¡¯t help but smile slightly upon sensing her body be even lighter, and the strength that filled her body. She instantly bowed and thanked Link. ¡°Thank you, Lord!¡± Link waved his hand and didn¡¯t say anything. He then looked at the skill book. [Heavy Impact] (Bronze-grade): The next attack inflicts damage that is 1.5 times one¡¯s [Strength] attribute. Cooldown 15 seconds. A skill book for closebat, belonging to the explosive skill-type. Link had quite a few skills of this type. After [Supreme Blessing] finished its cooldown, he would bless it and see what it would be. If it bes Epic or Diamond-grade, I will use it myself. There is no harm in having more skills. If it is only Silver or Gold-grade, then I shall give it to Xue Linglong. Just nice, she found me a Stage Three Dark Magus, bringing me quite a number of benefits. This skill book shall be her reward if it only bes Silver or Gold-grade! ... Just as Link pondered over this, he suddenly lifted an eyebrow and looked towards a ruin in the distance. A whileter, the others felt movements there too. Humans were approaching! Arge number of them! ¡°Is it the other survivors?¡± The others shared a look, then gathered around Link in unison. ¡°There¡¯s so many of them. Do they belong to one faction?¡± muttered Luo Xinghe. ¡°They didn¡¯te with good intentions!¡± Luo Xingyao squinted her eyes. Her instincts urately sensed the malicious intent radiating from this group of people. ¡°Hahaha... you are indeed right,d! There really is a fortuitous opportunity! After we sessfully obtain it, I shall reward you heavily!¡± A series of uglyughter resounded through the air. Not longter, a burly-sized, middle-aged man appeared in Link and his group¡¯s sight. Behind the man were 40 to 50 people scattered behind him. Most of them carried steel pipes, mountain knives, daggers, and other weapons. Many of them even held guns in their hands. No long after the middle-aged man finished speaking, a toady voice immediately sounded, ¡°Thank you, Master Tang!¡± The middle-aged man in the lead nodded in satisfaction and then looked towards Link and his group. The more he saw, the more surprised he was. Xue Linglong, Qiao Ruowei, Yang Xuerou, and Luo Xingyao were all goddess-level beauties, who appeared one in every 10,000 women. They were like plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum¡ªeach had its own merits and was very beautiful! He didn¡¯t expect that such people would be gathered into a group and that he would have the chance to encounter them. Could it be that this is the love luck that heaven blessed upon me? The more he thought, the more excited he was. He didn¡¯t conceal the greed and lust in his eyes as he directly stared at the girls and looked them up and down. Huh! Why is there a woman with wings? Tang Ye¡¯s pupils constricted. When his eyesnded on Yuna, he instantly couldn¡¯t move them away any longer. He had never seen someone as beautiful and holy as Yuna in his entire life. He instantly smiled broadly and said in a strange tone, ¡°They are really sentimental, cosying at a time like this!¡± His followers instantly cooperated andughed along embarrassingly upon hearing this. However, they fell silent a short whileter because they realized that Link and his group didn¡¯t bother about them at all. Their eyes were insipid. It was as if they were looking at a bunch of morons. Ackey instantly walked up, stood with his arms akimbo, and shouted at Link and his group. ¡°Heh, didn¡¯t the group of you people hear Master Tang talking to you all? Are the group of you all mute?¡± ¡°Hey, why is your tone so fierce, don¡¯t scare these beautifuldies!¡± Tang Ye quickly pulled back theckey. Theckey instantly rebuked inside his heart upon hearing this. Didn¡¯t you scold me for being lust-driven just now? Aren¡¯t you behaving the same way now after seeing this group of women that are even more beautiful? Your eyes are practically glued to them! However, on the surface, theckey respectfully said, ¡°You are right, Master Tang. Thank you for lecturing me!¡± Tang Ye walked up a few steps and confidently said, ¡°People, the world is different now. The outside isn¡¯t safe anymore. I see that your group looks quite pitiful. Why not follow me from now on...! As long as you serve me well and make mefortable, I promise that you will have food to eat!¡± Tang Ye saw that almost all of the people in Link¡¯s group had blood stains on them, especially Qiao Ruowei. She looked not much different to a beggar¡ªher clothes were almost ragged. Therefore, he naturally thought that they were having a hard time surviving. Tang Ye had met many such people previously. As long as he promised them some benefits, even if it was just warm food, they would follow him obediently. On the other side, Link¡¯s groupmates didn¡¯t look at Tang Ye at all. Their eyes all gathered on Link. ¡°Lord...¡± Luo Xinghe softly asked. ¡°Kill the few in the lead and leave the remaining asborers!¡± Link insipidly turned his head, searched for the chair heid on previously, andid down. ¡°Yes, Lord!¡± The others nodded and looked towards Tang Ye in unison. Tang Ye instantly felt rmed as if he was being stared at by a bunch of poisonous snakes. However, he couldn¡¯t behave too cowardly, so he stiffened his neck and said, ¡°What? The group of you seem to want to fight us?¡± He opened his palm after saying this, and a guy behind him instantly ced a short-handled knife in his hand. A faint yellow light instantly lit up from the knife¡¯s body as he held the handle tightly. Tang Ye casually waved the knife, and a nearby piece of gravel was cut into half. ¡°Awesome, Master Tang!¡± His followers instantly cheered andplimented him. Gold-grade [Fighter] hidden profession. It¡¯s no wonder he dares to be so arrogant. Link looked at this scene calmly and couldn¡¯t help butugh as he leaned on the deck chair. This Tang Ye¡¯s talent is considered not bad. If he can survive, he might really have a chance of bing an Overlord in the future. But it really is a pity that... he prefers to choose a path of death! ... Tang Ye instantly felt confident with the knife in his hand and felt the majestic strength flowing in his body. The sense of threat he felt just now dissipated into nothingness too. He took a step forward and arrogantly said, ¡°I am giving you all onest chance. Follow me obediently! I will not mistreat you all in the future. If you wait until I attack... I fear that these brothers of mine will want to taste the feel of women!¡± ¡°Too noisy!¡± A cold voice sounded, and the sounds of something breaking through the air violently sounded. Chapter 29: Nightmare Rose

Chapter 29: Nightmare Rose

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios A rapid sound of air breaking sounded. Tang Ye lifted his head hastily, and a cold glow came traveling through the darkness as he did so. It was an arrow! Tang Ye instantly held up his dagger, aimed at a point, and directly struck down vertically. A glimmer glistened on the dagger¡¯s de. Tang Ye attempted to slice this arrow in half with one strike so as to demonstrate his powerful capabilities. On the one hand, it was to awe his underlings and boost his authority. On the other hand, it was to teach this group of beauties about his formidability so that they would obediently submit to him! The corners of his lips turned up slightly, seemingly already imagining the scene of this group of delicate beauties in front of him submitting before him and begging for mercy. Ding! Yet, his countenance abruptly changed in the next instant. The force the dagger in his hand bore was so strong that it was a little beyond his expectations. The arrow that the silver-armored girl shot carried a tremendous force that rmed him. Once they came into contact, he almost lost hold of his dagger. He gritted his teeth then and there. All the strength in his body was used and added to the de. Tss Tss Tss! His quaking hand clearly reminded him that the arrow¡¯s momentum had not subsided in the slightest. It was still spinning swiftly, assaulting his dagger like a drill. Crack! All of a sudden, a crack appeared on the dagger forged from carbon steel. Tang Ye¡¯s pupils abruptly constricted at once as he felt extremely terrified. But it was toote for him to react again. He watched as that arrow broke his dagger and headed straight for the area between his eyebrows. Choo! The arrow prated past his eyebrows and emerged at the back of his head, with red and white substances staining it. The immense force drove into Tang Ye, sending him flying into the crowd and knocked down a good number of them. His eyes were ring, yet there was endless remorse left in his gaze. Why did I provoke these people that I could not afford to provoke! ¡°Mas-master Tang!¡± His surrounding underlings were instantly flustered. Quicker than words could tell, Luo Xingyao¡¯s arrow only took less than two seconds to prate Tang Ye¡¯s skull. They never expected that the leader they regarded as a god couldn¡¯t even block one arrow from that female and died a sudden death on the spot. But he was clearly so powerful. He could easily split a huge rock with one strike. He was virtually a Superman-like existence, so how could he be defeated so terribly? ¡°Kill them! Get revenge for Master Tang!¡± The underling who sucked up to Tang Ye at the very beginning suddenly roared, calling on the men. ¡°Kill!¡± This gang of people were ouws in the first ce. They had seen so much blood that no amount was too much for them. Even though the strongest among them¡ªMaster Tang¡ªhad just died a sudden death before them, they still did not think they would lose. There were so many of them, while their opponents could be counted on one hand. Moreover, the majority of them were delicate girls. They did not believe that every female was as frightening as the one who had shot the arrow earlier. But they became stunned the next moment. A bug as big and tall as half a human silently appeared before them. Its icypound eyes were filled with the vicious sentiments of ughtering. Just one look had them flustered. ¡°What... the hell is this?¡± someone swallowed his saliva and could not help asking. Buzz! The next instant, the bug turned into a dark shadow and vanished. Swish swish swish! In a mere breath¡¯s worth of time, the few people standing at the front became stiff. Appalling rips tore through their abdomens, directly prating their whole bodies. Upon looking carefully, one could not see any guts left. One could only see blood flowing. Even this group of gangsters¡ªwho had been through the field for a long time¡ªcould not help but feel their scalps go numb when faced with such a frightening and nauseating scene. The hands holding their weapons went weak, no longer having much strength. ¡°It¡¯s a gho-ghost!¡± Panic instantly spread, and all the gangsters lost the will to fight at once. Luo Xinghe went forward with his sword and blocked off the path at the other end of the street. Several heads fell to the ground again as he swung his longsword. Then, he bellowed loudly, ¡°Everyone, squat down quietly! If you dare continue to move casually, your head will fall!¡± Everyone around was terrified as they retreated coweringly. Xue Linglong, Qiao Ruowei, and Luo Xingyao killed several more people who were still running madly before the scene quietened down. ... Yang Xuerou stood beside Link¡¯s chair. Upon seeing that the dust had settled, she bent down and said softly, ¡°Link, it has ended!¡± Link slowly opened his eyes. He happened to see the sky resembling a white fish belly from his position. Day was finally breaking! ¡°Bring them back to school and integrate them with that batch of students to transport supplies!¡± Linkmanded coolly. ¡°Yes, Lord!¡± Luo Xinghe nodded and promptly drove this batch of gangsters in the direction of Dragon City No. 1 Middle School. Link looked around. His gazended on the silent Qiao Ruowei, and his brow arched. ¡°Come here!¡± He curled his hand. Qiao Ruowei faltered, unsure of the reason, but she still walked over. ¡°Lord, what orders do you have?¡± she asked carefully. ¡°Let me look at your profession!¡± Link said truthfully. He was a little curious about what exactly Qiao Ruowei¡¯s profession from acquired awakening was. Qiao Ruowei did not hesitate. In fact, [Doomsday Online] yers presently did not know what every person¡¯s profession information concerned. The further the game progressed, the more that profession information would be treated as important ssified information, only second to one¡¯s life. Soon, an attribute screen was disyed before Link. Name: Qiao Ruowei Profession: Nightmare Rose (Diamond) Level: Stage One, Level 4 Strength: 90 Intelligence: 102 Constitution: 92 Agility: 125 Profession skill 1: Dark Night Elf Nightmare Rose can earn an additional 10 points of Agility for every level advanced. In dark environments, Agility is increased by 120%, and danger perception is increased by 150%. Profession skill 2: Blood Weeping Rose (Passive Skill): Profession talent. Nightmare Rose has an exclusive weapon, [de of the Rose], nurtured in her body that needs to be supplied with fresh blood. Each time Nightmare Rose kills a target, [de of the Rose] receives nourishment, thereby increasing its level and ability. Current level: Yet to be activated. Progress 36/100. Sure enough... Link looked at Qiao Ruowei as if absorbed in thought. He had long guessed that Qiao Ruowei¡¯s awakened profession would be exceptional, but he did not actually expect it to be Diamond-grade. Moreover, looking at her talent, abilities, and skills, she was virtually born for assassinations! He indeed needed such a person who could work in the dark beside him. Worthy of fostering! Link¡¯s gaze turned, and he nced at Qiao Ruowei before indifferently saying, ¡°Go wash up inside the shopping mall and find a change of clothes. You¡¯re exposed!¡± Qiao Ruowei bowed her head to take a look, and her cheeks instantly flushed. She hurriedly nodded and left. Link then looked at the others and said, ¡°Go eat something. Return here after 20 minutes! Prepare to search for other high-level bosses!¡± ¡°Yes, Lord!¡± Everyone quickly nodded and then headed to the shopping mall. Presently, the shopping mall had no owner. They were free to take and use the things inside. Link and Yang Xuerou walked right at the end. They leisurely strolled and asionally chatted while casually grabbing some crackers, milk, and whatnot to fill their stomachs. They then found that a few more items were still inside after shooting a nce at the backpack. [Skull Bone Bow], [Staff of Magic Source], [Heavy Impact] skill book. Everything was pulled out. Once his talent hade off cooldown, each of the items was blessed. These items became splendid and brilliant the next moment. Chapter 30: Reward! Three Big Items!

Chapter 30: Reward! Three Big Items!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Twenty minutester, the group punctually gathered outside the shopping mall. Once they met, Link tossed the three items to Luo Xingyao, Yang Xuerou, and Xue Linglong, respectively. [Bow of Elf] Grade: Gold ss: Weapon Strength: 30 Agility: 35 Additional skills: [Arrow of Elf] (Active skill): For a period of time, increases Agility, Strength, as well as final damage by 30%. Arrows carry additional pration effect. Duration: 10 seconds. Cooldown: 15 seconds. [Saint Cross] Grade: Diamond ss: Weapon Intelligence: 73 Constitution: 46 Agility: 48 Additional skill 1: [Holy Healing Aura] (Passive skill): User¡¯s [Healing] type skill effects boosted by 50%. Additional skill 2: [Light of Prayer] (Active skill): Increases allies¡¯ attack and defense by 35%. Duration: 30 minutes. Cooldown: 1 minute. [Universe Cast] Grade: Gold ss: Skill book Effect: Release attack that deals damage 2.5 times one¡¯s Strength attribute. It can be added to weapons, causing additional weapon damage. These three items came from upgrading two Bronze and one Gold items, respectively. Whether it was their attributes or skill effects, everything was far more inferior than Link¡¯s own items. Luo Xingyao was an Epic-grade [Demon Sealing Arrow] Archer. She had very high potential and had ranked among the top ten [Doomsday Online] yers in the previous life. Yet, she never had a handy weapon. Up till now, she had been using her own traditionalpound bow. Despite using such a weapon, she killed that earlier Tang Ye in a split second all the same. That was enough to prove the value of nurturing her. It just so happened that the [Skull Bone Bow] had dropped from killing Undead Archers previously. After it had been blessed, it was directly given to her for her use. [Universe Cast] skill book¡¯s effect was not bad, but it was really average to Link. If it had reached Diamond-grade with the upgrade, he would have kept it for his own use. Now, he gave it to Xue Linglong as her reward for discovering a Dark Magus previously. The only Diamond-grade item, also a scepter with a [Healing] effect boost, happened to go to the team¡¯s only Priest, Yang Xuerou. Given her [Holy Priest] profession, beingplemented by those two buff skills was virtually adding wings to a tiger. ¡°Are they really for us?¡± The three were in slight disbelief, staring at the items before them with a glow glimmering in their eyes. ¡°Try out their effects!¡± Link nced at the three people, who were delighted beyond measure, and said coolly. Luo Xingyao¡¯s brows shook for a moment as she hesitantly received the [Bow of Elf]. Buzz! The next moment, her silver amour moved on its own ord without wind, sending her hair flying. A light and powerful force surged into her body from the longbow in her hands. Her beautiful eyes opened. In the next moment, her figure vanished like a phantom and shifted into the air. Upon drawing the bow, a faint green glow gathered and formed an arrow in the blink of an eye. As her body spun around lightly, the arrow abruptly shot out and struck a shop 200 meters away at the end of the street. BOOM! An immense force burst forth, and that shop¡¯s whole wall was blown to pieces, sending thick smoke and dust rolling. ¡°So swift, so strong!¡± Everyone was very frightened. They could clearly sense that Luo Xingyao, who had received this [Bow of Elf], had her abilities boosted by several-fold. ¡°Explosive arrows...¡± Meanwhile, Link¡¯s key thought was in another direction. He looked at Luo Xingyao with smiling eyes and asked, ¡°When did you grasp it?¡± Luo Xingyao stood still and replied softly, ¡°After fighting Tang Ye earlier, I was inspired by the Storm Spiral Arrow that you taught me!¡± Link nodded. She¡¯s indeed an Archer with top potential. Such aptitude! Yang Xuerou also held the scepter, [Saint Cross]. A gentle radiance streamed from the peak of the scepter, adding a few more hints of a holy and pure aura to her person¡ªwhich was already as soft as water. ¡°Light of Prayer!¡± A gentle hum gradually rose, and the scepter¡¯s brilliance got increasingly brighter, bing like a small sun for a moment. Everyone around who was enveloped in this brilliance felt a warmth that came from the bottom of their hearts as if their entire soul had gained an elevation! [Ding! You have gained buff, Light of Prayer. Attack and defense are enhanced by 35%. Duration: 30 minutes.] [Ding! Your buff, Light of Prayer, has gained the Holy Priest¡¯s blessing, triggering a hidden mechanism: Effect multiplied!] The distinct system notification sounded by everyone¡¯s ears, causing the shock in their hearts to be increasingly stronger. Such a high enhancement and the effect duration was so long... This was too powerful! The corners of Link¡¯s lips curved up slightly. She truly is a Legend-grade Holy Priest. Her awesome capabilities are already beginning to show. Given the height of his basic attributes, this buff was enough to bring him a bonus of more than 1,000 points to his respective attributes. Practically terrifying! Finally, it was Xue Linglong. After studying the skill book, her five fingers quietly gripped [Spear of the Frosty Moon] tightly, and a golden stream of energy was injected into the spear. Then, with a delicate shout, [Spear of the Frosty Moon] was suddenly thrown out. [Universe Cast]! The icy blue glow around [Spear of the Frosty Moon] circted non-stop, indistinctly turning into a vortex. Large amounts of frost power were created in the surroundings, which then turned into a vaguely visible frost dragon that roared past. Rumble! A chill filled the air, and a stretch of houses copsed. A blue shadow spun and flew back inverted,nding in Xue Linglong¡¯s hand. Xue Linglong¡¯s pretty eyes were wide as she looked at her own hand in disbelief, then at the [Spear of the Frosty Moon] in her hand. She eximed, ¡°I... did this?¡± The rest also watched all of this dazedly. Not too long ago, they were clearly still existences at the same level. Why did they feel as if Xue Linglong¡¯s capabilities had risen to apletely different level after such a short while!? They realized, then and there, it was all because of the item that Link bestowed her. Regardless of which item it was, they had enhanced the girls¡¯bat ability by multiple times. They could not help but make up their mind inwardly to earn more merits in front of Link. If Link was happy and randomly awarded them something, it would be enough to make themugh out loud in their dreams. ¡°Not too bad. Finally, it¡¯s not five lousy fighters!¡± Link nodded, showing that he was pretty satisfied. Now that this group of people under him were capable, it would be easier to hand many tasks to them. ¡°Xue Linglong, you and Yuna will be one team. Head to the west!¡± ¡°Luo Xingyao and God Devourer Ant are one team. Go eastwards!¡± ¡°Sister Xuerou will be with me. We¡¯ll go north!¡± North was where Dragon City No. 1 Middle School was located. It was also the direction they¡¯d beening from throughout the journey. ¡°There¡¯s only one thing to be done, and that is to search for high-level dark creatures. I¡¯ll reward anyone who finds them!¡± ¡°Yes, Lord!¡± Link surveyed everyone. Seeing the glimmering radiance in their eyes, he knew that his trick had worked. Upon seeing others gain a boost in capabilities after obtaining rewards, their inward yearning for power also grew stronger and stronger. They would grab all chances to work wholeheartedly for him. ¡°Alright, let¡¯s go!¡± Link¡¯s words fell, and everyone immediately split up, disappearing from sight. Chapter 31: Overbearing Tide of Undead, Concealed Conspiracies!

Chapter 31: Overbearing Tide of Undead, Concealed Conspiracies!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios The hot sun hung in the sky, and a perfect silence prevailed. It¡¯d merely been a day since Doomsday arrived, but it had caused the originally bustling and lively Dragon City to fall into deathly stillness. Under the Undead army¡¯s ravaging, the surviving humans were a mere handful. Everyone wanted to live, so who would dare head out? The entire city became empty, littered with corpses, with gravel and ruins everywhere. asionally, some hideous looking Undead Knights would also be wandering around. Chi! An arrow burst out, directly blowing the Undead Knight¡¯s skull open, turning it into fine powder. Several figures walked over. After seeing the Undead Knight that was blown apart, a man eximed, ¡°Xingyao, this [Bow of Elf] is really mighty. When will I be able to own a formidable weapon too!¡± These people were the Luo siblings, Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyao. On Link¡¯s orders, they were heading to Dragon City¡¯s east side, searching for powerful Undead bosses! However, they did not encounter any powerful Undead bosses throughout their journey. Instead, they had eliminated a big heap of low-level Skeleton Swordsmen and Undead Knights. In the time they followed Link, the siblings¡¯ capabilities had improved significantly. They could even crush the Undead Knights that they originally steered clear of. Such a reversal in the situation was like a surreal dream, seeming too good to be true. ¡°So long as we follow Lord, anything is possible!¡± said Luo Xingyao peacefully. She was originally an extreme tsundere. Although she was filled with longing for great power, her true intentions had been tightly bottled up. But ever since Link appeared, he had caused Luo Xingyao to waver inwardly. She vaguely sensed that following behind this man would result in an unforeseen ending! This point filled Luo Xingyao with yearning; it also made her put down her haughtiness. ¡°Alright, I think the same too!¡± Luo Xinghe nodded, firmly convinced. Link¡¯s mysteriousness and might had already conquered these two people. Especially the God Devourer Ant that followed behind them, constantly searching around. It could destroy an Undead creature in one move! This was a formidable creature, yet it was extremely obedient to Link. This was enough to prove how terrifying Link was! ¡°Let¡¯s go! We¡¯ll go find monsters to kill!¡± Luo Xinghe called out and took the lead, charging forward. He simrly craved strength. Only by bing strong could one survive in this time of Doomsday! Natural selection, survival of the fittest¡ªthis was the order of the universe! In this apocalyptic period, such order had already been vividly demonstrated! Soon, the duo passed throughyers of ruins to arrive at a lofty building. It was a hospital¡ªDragon City¡¯s biggest hospital. In normal times, its visitor volume was insanely high. But dead silence and destion lingered around the whole building currently, giving one a sense of extreme fright and bleakness! ¡°Are there... living people in there?¡± Luo Xinghe stopped in his steps as he set his gaze on the deste and gloomy hospital. He sensed a strong pressure ceaselessly hanging in the air as if it were hiding some big terror! ¡°Do not act recklessly. Inform Lord first!¡± Luo Xingyao came forward, her eyes looking extremely solemn. As a [Demon Sealing Arrow], her perception was exceedingly sharp. She knew far better than Luo Xinghe how frightening the forces hidden in the hospital were! Just like a volcano ready to erupt, it could spurtva anytime! Even the God Devourer Ant could not help but let out a buzzing sound. It was unknown whether it was out of fear or excitement... Roar! Right then, an anomaly urred! Snarls abruptly sounded from inside the hospital, and the shrieks were exceedingly piteous as if ferocious ghosts in theherworld were howling! At the same time, a dense ck tide abruptly surged out from the hospital. It was everywhere and came with an imposing manner as if a tempestuous wave had overturned this ce! At this moment, Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyao¡¯s countenances saw a flurry of changes; their breathing also became rapid! ¡°Un-Undead Tide!!!¡± said Luo Xinghe, his voice vaguely trembling as it carried traces of terror. It was really because this scene was too frightening. It was unlike Dragon City No. 1 Middle School, where all the monsters were just some low-level Undead like Skeleton Soldiers and Skeleton Swordsmen! This was an Undead Tide. Tens of thousands of Undead rushed out together. Just their momentum alone was appalling! The lowest-leveled dark creatures among them were Stage Two Undead Knights and Stage Two Undead Archers. There were even two Dark Magi¡ªa monster that Link had killed not long ago! What a dreadful scene this was. So many frightening Undeadunching an attack together... Probably no one could stop them! ¡°Exactly what secret is hidden in the hospital to make so many powerful Undead actually gather?¡± questioned Luo Xingyao softly. She had a nagging feeling that this hospital wasn¡¯t simple, and it was indeed so! ¡°Don¡¯t care about it so much! Run quickly! If we don¡¯t start running, we¡¯ll be trampled!¡± warned Luo Xinghe hurriedly as he watched the Undead army that was rushing toward them. It was like watching hordes of troops and horses pushing forward, about to overturn everything and crush them into fine powder. Just then, the God Devourer Ant at the side let out a buzzing sound, and its wings pped hard, seeming to be filled with excitement. The God Devourer Ant charged out before the two siblings spoke, moving towards the Undead Tide! The God Devourer Ant was indeed a Super God-grade existence. Even though all these Undead were of higher level than it, they were as fragile as sheets of paper under the God Devourer Ant¡¯s absolute strength. The God Devourer Ant was like a huge rock. With the momentum of sweeping away everything in its way, it forcefully charged into the Undead Tide! After seeing the God Devourer Ant enter the fray, Luo Xingyao also started moving. She rose and drew her bow. Radiance shrouded the [Bow of Elf], and a bright green ray suddenly shot out! ¡°Explosive arrow!¡± Luo Xingyao cried out delicately. The arrow flew out and caused a massive explosion among the Undead Tide, instantly crushing a dozen Undead Knights. With the [Bow of Elf] and the explosive arrows¡ªwhich Luo Xingyao had recently grasped¡ªthe might she produced was indeed astonishing. Upon seeing the two fighting instead of retreating, Luo Xinghe let out a sigh. He could only raise his mountain knife and prepare to resist the enemy. Only, this mad wave of Undead was not as simple as it appeared to be... ... On the other side, Link and Yang Xuerou were advancing to the north of Dragon City. Given Link¡¯s capabilities, the average dark creatures really could not stand one strike from him. Thus, wherever he passed was as easy as walking on t ground. The number of Undead creatures that died in Link¡¯s hands throughout the journey was probably already uncountable. However, Link had discovered an anomaly. They encountered increasingly fewer Undead the further north they headed. This was a strange phenomenon. Logically speaking, all areas would be unable to avoid devastation when Doomsday arrived. All areas would be attacked by Undead. However, this area was indeed odd! ¡°That side is...¡± Link nodded slightly as if he had understood something. But just then, Link arched a brow, and a slight change urred in his expression. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± questioned Yang Xuerou after sensing Link¡¯s change. ¡°They seemed to have discovered good stuff! Come, we¡¯ll go take a look first!¡± said Link as he shot a profound nce toward the north of Dragon City. He then turned and headed towards the east. Chapter 32: A Crisis Abruptly Emerges, On the Edge of Life and Death!

Chapter 32: A Crisis Abruptly Emerges, On the Edge of Life and Death!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Not long after Link andpany left, two figures suddenly appeared in the north region of Dragon City. They were wrapped in alloy armor from head to toe; the jet-ck alloy emitted a luster, like robots. The moment these two figures appeared, their arrival instantly drew the few dark creatures around to move in, surrounding them! There were Skeleton Swordsmen and also Undead Knights, snarling ferociously and viciously as if they were about to tear the humans into pieces. ¡°Hmph!¡± One of the figures sneered coldly, and radiance condensed in the alloy armor on him. Light sparkled and directly blew these Undead creatures into pieces. The fine powder was everywhere in an instant, achieved with extreme ease. ¡°To think that humans with formidable talents have already appeared at the initial stage of Doomsday, how interesting.¡± They¡¯d seen traces of the earlierbat and knew that a powerful human was here! ¡°They¡¯re mere nobodies. No need to be bothered about them! If he dares to step into our ck Dragon Gang¡¯s territory, it shall be the time of his death!¡± The other figure grunted coldly, his tone filled with disdain as if hepletely thought nothing of others. To be honest, such were the facts. Presently, it¡¯d been merely a day since Doomsday arrived. Even if humans could awaken in the apocalyptic world, their capabilities would not improve this quickly, unlike these two people wearing the alloy armor! They crushed the Stage Two Undead Knights into fine powder with unmatched ease, which was enough to prove how frightening they were. ¡°Doctor Ghost¡¯s forging skills are indeed exceptional. You were actually able to forge a Gold-grade alloy armor! With these pieces of equipment, our ck Dragon Gang will rule Dragon City sooner orter! This apocalyptic world is the best opportunity to rise up!¡± The other person did notment as he coldly gazed at the remaining Undead creatures around before silently lifting his alloy arm! Boom! A brilliantser beam shot out. Wherever it passed, all Undead creatures were annihted. A deep pit had even been blown open on the ground. Then the two figures left, leaving behind a sea of remains and ruins. ... ... East of Dragon City! Mingshi Hospital was originally the biggest hospital in Dragon City. It was also the ce where human traffic was most concentrated! Only, this ce was also attacked by the most number of Undead creatures when Doomsday arrived, resulting in broken corpses strewn all around with barely any human presence! Presently, the entire Mingshi Hospital had long been flooded by an overwhelming Undead army. Undead Knights that rode on skeleton horses and Undead Archers with [Skull Bone Bows] in hand were everywhere! In this mad tide of Undead were also three figures barging about, bursting out with extremely intense attacks, which set off deafening noises. Two of them were Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyao. The instant they encountered the Undead army, the fight had broken out with a bang! With the strength of Luo Xingyao¡¯s [Demon Sealing Arrow] and Luo Xinghe¡¯s [Silvermoon Sword Emperor], they had actually forcefully resisted the Undead army¡¯s assault. If someone were to witness this scene, they would certainly be in great trepidation and trembling terribly! Those were all Stage Two Undead creatures. The average human would have absolutely no room for resistance upon encountering them and would definitely be killed within a split second. But presently, these two humans were actually resisting millions of these troops¡ªthat was truly astonishing! Of course, the most formidablebat force was not Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyao, but the God Devourer Ant on the other side¡ªwho was like a god of war. God Devourer Ant was of a savage primordial species and also a Super God-grade summon. Its strength was exceedingly terrifying; it could rip up an Undead Knight¡¯s solid skeleton armor with ease! Within a few moments, the Undead creatures that died in God Devourer¡¯s hands were multiple-fold of the number killed by Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyao altogether. ¡°He¡¯s truly the Lord; he is able to subdue even such a frightening creature!¡± Luo Xinghe smacked his mouth. He was also startled by the God Devourer Ant¡¯s strength. With such a powerful creature as a follower, wouldn¡¯t it be a breeze to rise up in this apocalyptic world if one wanted to? Rumble! Right then, a change came to the situation! Luo Xingyao andpany¡¯s massacre ultimately attracted the attention of the powerhouses in the Undead army. Those two Stage Three Dark Magi¡¯spletely dark, deep pupils looked over. As a Stage Three leader-level boss, Dark Magi were extremely formidable existences. Although Link had killed one Dark Magus not long ago, that was Link after all, and not them. Moreover, there was more than one of them here! Upon sensing the dreadful aura radiating from the Dark Magi, Luo Xinghe¡¯s and Luo Xingyao¡¯s countenances suddenly changed, bing extremely wary. ¡°Oh no, it seems like we cannot afford to offend this thing.¡± Luo Xinghe wore a wry smile; they had met great trouble this time. Luo Xingyao did not speak, but her delicate hands gripping the [Bow of Elf] were already a little white, enough to show her solemnity. Putting aside the fact that the surrounding Undead army had yet to bepletely cleared out, just the threat that these two Dark Magi posed to her wasn¡¯t that easy to withstand. Just then, the two Dark Magi had already begun to move! ¡°Humans, die!¡± The Dark Magus¡¯s voice was hoarse, like the roaring of ferocious ghosts; its aura was also hostile. The two Dark Magi began moving at the same time. ck fog hovered around them, dark magic poured out, and the chain of order linked up, allowing them to float in the air. At the same time, dark magic gathered in front of those two Dark Magi¡¯s chests, forming a ck-hole-like sphere that radiated an aura that made one¡¯s heart palpitate! Boom! The dark magic stirred, and Arcane Energy Cannon bombs whirled up and suddenly dropped with a terrifying momentum, flying over like a missile. ¡°Oh no!¡± Luo Xinghe growled. He could sense how terrifying this attack was. They absolutely could not withstand it; they would certainly be severely wounded! Luo Xingyao bit her red lip hard. Mist lingered around the [Bow of Elf] in her hand as she abruptly shot out an explosive arrow. The explosive arrow traveled through the air and collided with the Arcane Energy Cannon bomb! mes burst everywhere for a time, painting the sky. The attacks from the two sides converged, setting off a staggering explosion beforepletely disappearing! Luo Xingyao was indeed [Demon Sealing Arrow]. Given her current capabilities, together with [Bow of Elf], she could even withstand an attack from a Stage Three Dark Magus! However, Luo Xingyao could only fire one arrow! Whereas there were two Dark Magi! The other dark attack had already descended. Magic shrouded it, and the terror fell, making one feel their imminent death! ¡°Xingyao, go!¡± Luo Xinghe gritted his teeth, forcefully lifted his mountain knife, and went forward to block the blow. However, he was sent flying after blocking the attack for a few seconds! Pu chi! The mountain knife broke, and Luo Xinghe was severely wounded! Meanwhile, the Dark Magi¡¯s attacks had yet to stop. They kept pushing towards Luo Xingyao, wanting to destroy herpletely! The God Devourer Ant on the side wanted to rush over but was persistently held back by the Undead army. They did not hesitate to self-destruct to obstruct the God Devourer Ant! It was clear that a Dark Magus was controlling them at the back so that they could kill Luo Xingyao first! Am I about to die? While watching the dark magic that continuously came closer, this thought could not help but emerge in Luo Xingyao¡¯s mind. She could already sense that death was very close to her as if her next step would bring her through the gates of hell. But right then, Luo Xingyao seemed to see a figure appearing with her trance-like gaze. Chapter 33: EXP Babies, Clean Sweep!

Chapter 33: EXP Babies, Clean Sweep!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Boom! A loud bang sounded! An intense explosion erupted in front of Luo Xingyao, but it did not affect her the slightest bit! Luo Xingyao¡¯s gaze was fixed, and her line of sight tightly converged on the figure in front of her. It was a man dressed in a moon-white soul robe with a scarlet-red longsword in hand. His body was strong and tall, while his aura was transcendent and refined. Between his gestures, the dark magic¡ªwhich was powerful enough to destroy a building¡ªwaspletely extinguished. Not even a speck of dust had tainted his robes. ¡°Lord...¡± Luo Xingyao¡¯s lips moved lightly, and her tone was a surprised one. She did not expect that Link would appear before her and ward off that crushing blow at such a critical juncture. ¡°Xingyao, are you okay!?¡± questioned Link while standing in front. Although Link knew that Luo Xingyao was a top expert ranking among the Top 100 Human Alliance League¡¯s top ten in the previous life, that was a thing of the future after all. Since Link was reborn in this world, he had already brought some changes to the originally determined events. The people who originally should¡¯ve died also survived because of Link¡¯s appearance. Those who had originally lived could possibly die! Regarding this point, nobody could be sure! However, Luo Xingyao¡¯s talent was indisputable. As long as she survived, she would certainly grow and be a top expert that yed an outstanding role in her own way! This was also the reason why Link acted to save her! After all, Luo Xingyao had already submitted herself to hismand. When she matured in the future, she would also be an important member under his charge! ¡°I¡¯m fine!¡± Luo Xingyao also returned to her senses and shook her head, but ripples had vaguely emerged in her pair of bright eyes. Chi! A streak of Holy Light glimmered! Yang Xuerou had rushed over and used her Restoration Skill; it instantly fell on Luo Xingyao and Luo Xinghe¡ªwho was by the side and severely injured. Soon, the duo¡¯s injuries were healed. Luo Xinghe also got up from the ground with a grin. ¡°Thank you, Lord, foring to our rescue!¡± Luo Xinghe was a little grateful. If it weren¡¯t for Link¡¯s appearance, they probably would have died here. ¡°Pretty good job!¡± Link nodded lightly, then directed his gaze to the front, a hint of excitement surfacing in his eyes. To others, this was arge Undead army. They would flee for their lives at the first moment; just news of such an army was terrifying enough to them! However, the Undead creatures were just a bunch of EXP babies to Link¡ªartifacts to gain points! With regards to such Undead Tides, Link weed all of them. He would take as many as there were! ¡°Die!¡± Towards Link¡¯s appearance, those two Dark Magi became angry. The ck mist around them flowed ceaselessly as their magic surged. They were even more bent on overturning light and sinking the universe into darkness! Boom! Boom! Boom! Dark Arcane Energy Cannon bombs burst out from these two Dark Magi¡¯s bodies, and like falling meteors, they sparkled in the starry sky and sunk into the ground! The might of every Arcane Energy Cannon bomb was extremely frightening. They were probably capable of destroying an entire building once theynded! At this time, Link¡¯s countenance remained unchanged. He attacked instead of retreating, taking the initiative to charge towards the Dark Magi! ¡°Courting death!¡± A Dark Magus grinned hideously. To it, the fact that Link actually dared to receive its magic was virtually extreme arrogance! A mere Stage One human, meeting force with force with a Stage Three Dark Magus... Isn¡¯t that having a death wish? But soon after, the scene that took ce before its eyes had the Dark Magus rooted to the ground! As Link went forward, those Arcane Energy Cannon bombs bombarded him directly as if they had locked onto him. However, Link¡¯s figure had vanished before they had struck him. [Meteor]! One of [Shoe of the Moon Chaser]¡¯s active skills allowed Link to teleport anywhere within a 20-meter radius! This distance happened to close the gap between Link and the Dark Magi! Chi! Link swung his sword, and [Red Sky] cut through the empty air while shooting out a streak of scarlet sword energy, which directly prated a Dark Magus¡¯s body. This annihted the dark magic and made the ck mist scatter! [Ding! You sessfully killed a Dark Magus. Gained 5,000 EXP!] [Ding! Detected that you have killed a unit that is of a higher level than you are! Awarded +300% additional EXP!] With his previous experience, Link dealt with Undead creatures like Dark Magi with ease. He readily killed this Dark Magus. However, Link was a little surprised. Previously, killing a Dark Magus had allowed him to advance directly from Stage One, Level 5 to Stage One, Level 10. But presently, killing another Dark Magus did not allow him to break through the threshold to Stage Two! By the looks of this, while a taboo profession is powerful, wanting to level up is way more difficult, especially when trying to make a breakthrough from Stage One to Stage Two! It isn¡¯t as easy as advancing by one level. The amount of EXP I require is extremely frightening! However, no rush. There are still many EXP babies around! Link wore an indifferent look on his face. His gaze turned andnded on the other Dark Magus. For a time, the Dark Magus¡ªwhich was born with intellect¡ªactually felt fear after seeing how easily itspanion was killed by Link! This was its first time feeling fear towards a human! However, it had to be scared. After all, itspanion was dead. If it didn¡¯t start moving, wouldn¡¯t that just be awaiting its doom! For this reason, the remaining Dark Magus moved. It growled while controlling the Undead creatures around to surround Link, so as to stand in his way! While that happened, the Dark Magus turned and fled at top speed. It escaped towards the hospital¡¯s depths. ¡°...¡± ¡°No way! A Stage Three Dark Magus actually fled without fighting! Lord is too impressive; he scared this Dark Magus out of its wits!¡± Luo Xinghe had a dazed gaze. It was his first time seeing an Undead creature clinging onto life and fearing death, feeling so afraid that it escaped! This literally renewed his world view! Although Luo Xingyao did not say anything, her eyes were filled with faith as if anything that this man before her did was normal! ¡°Trying to leave?¡± Link¡¯s brow arched as he sneered coldly. A [Red Sky God me] was swung out, and mes dashed to the sky, scorching heaven and earth! Wherever the [Red Sky God me] passed, those Stage Two Undead creaturespletely perished. Not even shrieks could be heard as they were turned into ashes! [Ding! Sessfully killed Stage Two Undead Knight +1. Gained EXP +100] [Ding! As you have crossed levels to kill an enemy, awarded an additional 100% EXP!] [Ding! Sessfully killed Stage Two Undead Archer +1, EXP +100!] [Ding! As you have crossed levels to kill an enemy, awarded an additional 100% EXP!] ... The Undead Tide¡ªwhich numbered in the tens of thousands¡ªcould not resist Link in the slightest. They were wholly turned into massive amounts of EXP, bing Link¡¯s stepping stones to leveling up. Link leaped out and continuously rushed towards thest Dark Magus, determined to make it his EXP baby that would help him advance to Stage Two! Chapter 34: Breakthrough, Four-winged Angel!

Chapter 34: Breakthrough, Four-winged Angel!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Link was very fast. Under the [Shoes of the Moon Chaser]¡¯s blessing, he was as swift as a sharp arrow! In an instant, Link caught up with the fleeing Dark Magus! After seeing the humans behind him approaching, the Dark Magus¡¯s expression changed drastically, revealing fear just like a human! It felt that the God of Death was approaching him while waving the death scythe, wanting to extinguish itpletely! ¡°Respected Lord Necromancer, I implore you to take action!¡± The Dark Magus let out a shrilling roar and yelled towards Mingshi Hospital as if seeking help! Upon seeing this scene, Link frowned slightly. He could feel a very strong death auraing from the hospital not too far ahead! This area was like purgatory. Corpses littered the ground, and the yin energy here was so dense it was almost solid. The dark Mingshi Hospital was surrounded by a faint-green death aura, giving people a sense of horror! There is a horrifying secret in this hospital! In fact, Link knew this in his heart the moment he saw the wave of Undead appear. Based on the memories of his previous life, the Undead creatures should have been wandering around aimlessly, killing weak humans, after arriving on Blue Star. Although there were more Undead creatures in some ces, there had never been so many gathered in one ce. Tens of thousands of Undead creatures had gathered here, obviously summoned or controlled by some kind of powerful creature. In addition, Link had understood the situation because of the Dark Magus¡¯s actions! There must be a stronger Undead creature behind all this! Only a high-leveled Undead creature can have absolute control over the lower-leveled Undead creatures. Indeed, as the Dark Magus¡¯s voice sounded, a vast aura wave exploded out from the inside of the hospital! Hu! The cold wind whistled, and a death aura burst forth. It was like the gates of hell had opened, polluting the world! Faint green rays of light burst out. They intertwined and entangled each other before bing a giant ghost hand that grabbed at Link! The Dark Magus was shocked by this sight! From its point of view, that thing had taken action. Thus, it would definitely be able to escape from this human now! This human was too terrifying. A Stage Three Undead creature could not even retaliate against him. However, that thing was not something mere humans could resist! The Dark Magus was confident; it even stopped fleeing. It turned around and stared at Link with its ck eyes! It wanted to see Link die in the Lord Necromancer¡¯s hands! Upon seeing the approaching ghost hand, Link wore a solemn expression. He could sense that this ghost hand contained terrifying magical energy. It was far more powerful than the Arcane Energy Cannons released by Dark Magi. One must understand that Dark Magi were Stage Three leader-level Undead creatures. If it was stronger than Dark Magi, wouldn¡¯t it be a... Stage Four Undead? ¡°Humph!¡± Link snorted and spun [Red Sky]¡ªwhich was in his hand¡ªcreating waves of red sword energy in the air! At the same time, a blinding light shone on Link¡¯s body! [Soul Energy Bombing] [Red Sky God me] With Soul Energy Bombing¡¯s blessing, [Red Sky]¡¯s power tripled! The built-up energy was extremely vast whenbined with [Red Sky God me]! Waves of red sword energy burst out, casting rays of light like the zing sun. Thousands of sword energy waves pierced the clouds as if they were prating the sky! The vast sword energy collided with the ghost hand, causing a shocking explosion! In an instant, both the ghost hand and the sword energy converged. Then, the ghost hand was split up by the sword energy. The death aura scattered and suddenly disappeared! However, that was not the end of [Red Sky]¡¯s sword aura. It shed at the Dark Magus, crushing its body. Its body turned into a dark mist and dissipatedpletely! The Dark Magus didn¡¯t expect that his trustworthy Lord Necromancer couldn¡¯t withstand Link¡¯s attack. In the end, it still died in Link¡¯s hands! [Ding! You sessfully killed a Dark Magus. Gained 5,000 EXP!] [Ding! Detected that you have killed a unit that is a higher level than you! Awarded +300% additional EXP!] [Ding! Congrattions on sessfully leveling up to Stage Two, Level 1!] After killing thest Dark Magus, Link finally overcame the threshold and advanced to Stage Two! Chi! Brilliant rays sted out of Link¡¯s body and enveloped him! Radiance illuminated and baptized Heaven and Earth! At this moment, Link could feel that his strength had increased by several-fold. A warm current circted in his body, flowing through his limbs and all his bones while conserving his whole body and strengthening his aura! A steady stream of strength converged in Link¡¯s body like a stormy sea. It seemed as if it would gush out at any time! Boom! The shimmering rays swirled around Link¡¯s body with a muffled boom, making him seem a lot more majestic and impressive suddenly. His eyes shone as brightly as all the stars in the sky! Chi! The sounds of swords nking! Link swung his sword, and tens of thousands of rays shone everywhere. Everything that the rays touched shattered! Boom! A loud noise sounded, and a building not far away copsed and shattered because of the sword rays. The rubble flew everywhere! This attack was multiple times stronger than before! Upon feeling the surging strength within his body, the corners of Link¡¯s mouth curved up slightly. It is indeed different when one has advanced to Stage Two. My stats have multiplied by several-fold! Luo Xingyao, Luo Xinghe, and the others¡ªwho had been watching this whole time¡ªwere all shocked and surprised! ¡°Lord has be stronger again!¡± Luo Xinghe gaped. He was full of envy and admiration for Link! However, the enhancement of Link¡¯s strength was more than just this! Chi! Chi! On the other side, two beams of light shone brightly as they pierced straight into the sky! Although they weren¡¯t as dazzling as Link¡¯s, they were equally astonishing and caused a sensation in Dragon City! It was Link¡¯s two summoned creatures. The God Devourer Ant and Angel Yuna had immediately rushed over after receiving Link¡¯s order! At this moment, they had gained an incredible amount of EXP, allowing them to break through the barrier and level up. Something strange happened within Yuna¡¯s body at the same time! Chi! An iparably holy light burst out of Yuna¡¯s body. Wherever the light passed, darkness seemed to retreat. All the death aura was also cleansed! The world saw light once again. A holy angel floated in the air, surrounded by white light. She would eradicate all evil in the world! After sessfully breaking through and advancing to Stage Two, Yuna¡¯s strength had also improved significantly! Her eyes shimmered with golden light, filled with iparable dignity. Her snow-white wings spread open, shining holy light all over the world! Four-winged Angel! Yuna¡ªwho had sessfully advanced to Stage Two¡ªwas finally able to show everyone how terrifying she could be! Chapter 35: Level Jump, Skills Activated!

Chapter 35: Level Jump, Skills Activated!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Yuna¡¯s wings red, and holy white light suddenly burst out from behind her. The Stage Two Undead creatures turned into ashes wherever she passed, dissipating into the wind! [Ding! Sessfully killed Stage Two Undead Knight +1. Gained EXP +100] [Ding! Sessfully killed Stage Two Undead Archer +1. Gained EXP +100!] ... ... Thousands of Undead were vanquished with just one attack! Angel Yuna was indeed worthy of being a Super God-grade summon! But the strange phenomena were not over yet! After Yuna advanced, the God Devourer Ant also advanced! The God Devourer Ant originally leveled up slower than Yuna, but it had already caught up to her because it killed arge number of Undead creatures. Now that it had reached Stage Two, the God Devourer Ant underwent tremendous changes as well! Boom! A powerful and wild aura suddenly erupted. It spread out fiercely in all directions and shot straight up into the heavens! The God Devourer Ant¡¯s physical body metamorphosed, and it suddenly becamerger. Originally half the size of a human, its size had doubled. It was now as tall as a human! Its ck carapace was originally etched with blue and gold patterns. Now, they had all transformed into brilliant golden patterns. It seemed as if inexplicable enchantments were undting on its body! Its ck-gold pair of wings extended by a full foot and also became sharper. They were like sharp des, which could destroy both gold and gravel. Roar! The God Devourer Ant, which had broken through to Stage Two, was already showcasing its ferocity. Its crimsonpound eyes exuded violence and bloodthirst. It made people tremble and terrified! [Ding! Congrattions, your summoned creature, Holy Angel, has sessfully advanced to Stage Two!] [Ding! Congrattions, your summoned creature, Holy Angel, has activated skill¡ªHoly Light Beam!] [Holy Light Beam]: By using the power of holy light, Yuna can bless friendly units. Friendly units will gain invincibility for two seconds, bing immune to all damage. Cooldown time: 1 minute! (Note: As the Holy Angel¡¯s Holy Light is weak, only one person can be blessed at present.) Holy Angel Yuna¡ªwho had sessfully advanced to Stage Two¡ªhad also activated a new skill! This made Link happy. Holy Light Beam was an awesome skill! It granted immunity to all damage! Although itsted only two seconds, the battle between supremes was tense, and the battlefield changed rapidly. Just one second was enough for a reversal in the situation, not to mention two seconds! With two seconds of invincibility, Link would have a hidden card up his sleeve in the future, whether it was while fighting against an enemy or while protecting himself! Moreover, when Yuna became more powerful in the future and could bless more people, wouldn¡¯t it be like leading a group of invincible monsters into battle? Imagine this scenario: the other party thought they were about to win, but their opponent suddenly became invincible, turned the tables, and ughtered them instead... Link got excited just thinking about it! ¡°Yuna¡¯s skill has been activated. God Devourer should also...¡± Link nodded in satisfaction, then turned his attention to the God Devourer Ant. [Ding! Congrattions, your summoned creature, God Devourer Ant, has sessfully advanced to Stage Two!] [Ding! Congrattions, your summoned creature, God Devourer Ant, has activated skill¡ªSky Shattering Roar!] [Sky Shattering Roar]: God Devourer Ant can use Sky Shattering Roar, which shakes the earth and causes enemies to be stunned for 3 seconds. Cooldown time: 1 minute! ¡°One grants invincibility, and the other controls. This is too cool!¡± Link suddenly felt more relieved. With these two newly-activated skills, they would be able to deal with a Stage Four Undead, even if they encountered one! Stun it for three seconds and beat it up. Even if it was not killed, they still had backup. After all, they had invincibility. It was not to be taken lightly! They were indeed worthy of being Super God-grade summons. As their level increased, they became more and more terrifying! Link was filled with anticipation. How terrifying would the two Super God-grade summons be when they leveled up even more? It was said that a Holy Angel¡¯s wings represented their power! The more wings a Holy Angel had, the more powerful it was! There had been rumors that the strongest Holy Angel had 24 wings. It was a warrior that possessed terrifying powerparable to that of God! However, was it so simple to be a 24-winged angel? But Link didn¡¯t care. With the power he controlled, he would be able to conquer this world and be number one in this world. Who knows, that day might actuallye? It had only been two days since these two great summons came into the world, but their might had already grown tenfold. This speed was terrifying! Perhaps there really was a possibility for them to be that powerful in the future? Nothing was definite. There was hope! All this would depend on their fate! ... ¡°Master!¡± ¡°Zhi zhi!¡± Yuna and God Devourer came to Link, their eyes filled with joy. They could sense that their increase in power waspletely brought about by Link! Link nodded slightly, then nced at his surroundings. The originally strong wave of Undead had been decimated; now, not many were left. The Undead had suffered heavy casualties! The Undead creatures were unable to defend against Link¡¯s raging sword energy when he leveled up and Yuna¡¯s Holy Light Beam when she leveled up. They had been annihted by those attacks¡¯ divine might. A small part of their forces survived, but they were no longer a force to be feared! ¡°God Devourer, get rid of them!¡± ordered Link tly, not willing to waste time! ¡°Zhi zhi!¡± God Devourer nodded, then stepped forward. Its sturdy figure exploded with terrifying power! Roar! A roar rose into the sky. Like a primordial creature that had suddenly appeared, it shook the world! This was the God Devourer Ant¡¯s [Sky Shattering Roar]! The roar burst forth like thunder. It whistled by and made the Undead creatures fall to the ground and shiver in terror! This was absolute spiritual pressure. It was not something these Undead creatures could withstand! The God Devourer Ant immediately stepped forward. As if chopping vegetables and melons, it destroyed all the remaining Undead. No Undead creatures survived. Calm finally returned to the surrounding area. The aura of death gradually dissipated, and the area became quiet once again! ¡°Lord!¡± Luo Xingyao, Yang Xuerou, and the others approached Link. Shock lingered in their eyes as if they were astonished by what had just happened. This turn of events was really amazing. The wave of Undead¡ªwhich could have destroyed a city¡ªhad been so easily neutralized by Link. It was simply mind-blowing! ¡°It¡¯s not over yet!¡± said Link tly. His eyes then froze, and his gaze turned toward the depths of the hospital! ¡°Next, let me see what secrets are hidden here!¡± Link had not forgotten that a powerful Undead creature was hidden in the depths of Mingshi Hospital! It was very likely a Stage Four Undead! From the memories of Link¡¯s previous life, there shouldn¡¯t have been such powerful creatures here since it was just the beginning of Doomsday. In his past life, his first encounter with a Stage Four Undead was when the monsters attacked the city! But there was a Stage Four undead in this hospital right now. That in itself was extraordinary! What exactly did the hospital hold to attract a Stage Four undead? Link was a little curious, but he didn¡¯t care! He wouldpletely unravel the secrets inside! Chapter 36: Stage Four, Necromancy!

Chapter 36: Stage Four, Necromancy!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios The moon in the sky was bright, and the night was dark! The dark, gloomy night sky was eerie and chilly. Shrouded by the dark of night, Mingshi Hospital seemed even more mysterious. ck mist swirled endlessly, asionally sending out tendrils of cold. ¡°Lord, are we really going in?¡± Luo Xinghe felt wary. He could feel that this hospital was filled with bad luck and mystery! The appearance of an Undead Tide, together with the ghost hand, was enough to obliterate everything! In the early days of [Doomsday Online], who could have stopped if it weren¡¯t for Link? Right now, they were going to enter this mysterious area. It was really terrifying! ¡°Of course!¡± Link wore an indifferent expression. He had already nned to look for high-level Undead to gain EXP and treasures from killing them. From there, he would be able to be more powerful! Nothing was more reliable than one¡¯s own strength if they wanted to survive in Doomsday! Moreover, a Stage Four Undead creature was likely hidden in the hospital! This was what excited Link the most! The reward for killing a Stage Four Undead creature was far more than the reward for killing a Stage Three Undead creature! If Link was still Stage One, he might have reconsidered and not taken the risk since Stage Four Undead creatures were far stronger than Stage Three Undead creatures! In other words, if a Stage Three Undead creature were a leader, then a Stage Four Undead creature would beparable to a General! The gap between the two was vast! However, Link had already reached Stage Two. The massive increase in his attributes made him more than a match for an ordinary Stage Four Undead creature! Furthermore, he also had two Super God-grade summons. Both were also Stage Two, but they were much more powerful than their level! Thus, Link wanted to see what secrets were hidden in the hospital! Taking big steps, Link strode forward toward Mingshi Hospital! Behind him, Yuna and God Devourer followed close on his heels! When the others saw this, they followed them in. Boom! Mingshi Hospital¡¯s electrical system had long been destroyed by Undead creatures. The automatic sliding doors did not work as a result and had to be kicked in! Upon entering Mingshi Hospital, a foul smell greeted them. Inside, corpses were already everywhere, and blood was sttered all over! Broken limbs were scattered all around, and internal organs were smashed all over the ground. It was a spine-chilling sight! There was not an empty piece of ground in the entire hall. It waspletely covered by corpses! When Doomsday descended, the Undead appeared and killed all the humans in Mingshi Hospital! Mingshi Hospital was thergest hospital in Dragon City; the usual flow of people here exceeded hundreds of thousands. Now, hundreds of thousands of people had died tragically in this ce. This caused the ce to be filled with grievances. The aura of death emanated from everything. It was like purgatory on earth. ¡°Link...¡± Yang Xuerou¡¯s face was pale. She had never seen such a terrifying scene before. This catastrophe was far more terrifying than the one in Dragon City No. 1 Middle School, and there was much more misery! Hundreds of thousands of humans were brutally ughtered just like that. There were no survivors! Even [Demon Sealing Arrow] Luo Xingyao and [Silvermoon Sword Emperor] Luo Xinghe trembled as they looked on with shock in their eyes. Other than Link, everyone must have been affected by this scene! Link was an Asura Summoner in his previous life. Killing was his forte! The number of deaths that happened here was not even half of what went on in his previous life, so he was naturally unaffected! But Link noticed that there was another person with a rtively calm expression! It was Qiao Ruowei! He didn¡¯t expect that Qiao Ruowei¡ªwho was still delicate and weak the day before¡ªwould have undergone such a big change. No wonder she was able to switch professions and be [Nightmare Rose]. She was a bit strange, as he should have expected. ¡°These are just small events. You must know that the outside world has already fallenpletely! In just one day, hundreds, thousands¡ªeven 10,000-fold more humans have died in Dragon City than here! ¡°It is because these people have no abilities and no means of resistance. When Doomsday came, they were justmbs waiting to be ughtered by the Undead¡¯s dancing butcher knives! If you want to survive in this world, you must be strong!¡± Link spoke in a firm and solemn voice. Everyone shuddered when they heard this! Link could feel that some people¡¯s mental state had been affected, and they were spiraling into hopelessness and depression! This environment was one that could destroy people¡¯s minds! This was why Link had spoken up, using his voice to dispel the negative effects! Sure enough, a trace of rity appeared in everyone¡¯s eyes when they heard Link¡¯s words. The hopelessness had also disappeared! What reced it was fear! They, too, could sense that their minds would have been swallowed by darkness if Link had not spoken. ¡°Hiak hiak! Bold humans, how dare you to break into the territory of the Undead King! You will be punished by the King!¡± At this moment, the cold wind howled in rage, and the ghostly mist surged to envelop everything! In the ghostly mist, a shadowy figure approached. Its sudden appearance brought an extremely sad chill to everyone! It was an Undead creature wearing a ck robe. An aura of resentment and death billowed around it, shing and roaring like an evil spirit. It held a skull scepter in its hand; it was full of powerful death magic, which could easily harvest human lives! Just as the figure appeared, its information also appeared in Link¡¯s mind! [Necromancer] Race: Scourge Profession: Mage Level: Stage Four, Level 7 It is able to use powerful necromancy and ck magic. With the ability to control spirits and summon the Undead, it has necromancy attacks that can devour life. This is an extremely powerful necromancer! It was a Stage Four Undead creature! However, what surprised Link was that a Necromancer actually appeared in this ce! Necromancers were not only Stage Four Undead creatures, but they were also an important force in the Scourge! The Scourge was the top force among Undead creatures. In Link¡¯s memories of his previous life, the Scourge was extremely terrifying. Once it appeared, even a major city would fall! The Scourge was the absolute leader who controlled hundreds of millions of Undead creatures; it was a top force that couldpete with the Zergs! Necromancers were a leading force in the Scourge! Although the Necromancer in front of them was only Stage Four, it was far more terrifying than other Stage Four Undead creatures! This was an Undead creature that was difficult to deal with! Link had met a Necromancer in his previous life. Back then, he was a powerful Asura Summoner! When he encountered the Necromancer, he had to exhaust all his skills before he managed to behead it! It was going to be a tough battle now that a Necromancer had appeared. Chapter 37: The Furious Necromancer!

Chapter 37: The Furious Necromancer!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios If it were in his previous life, Link might have been afraid of this Necromancer. However, his current expression was indifferent. It did not change because of the Necromancer because he would surely be at the pinnacle in this life! Anybody with the guts to stop him would be his stepping stones. Although Link was not afraid, the people behind him couldn¡¯t help but be scared! Just the terrifying aura emanating from the Necromancer was enough to make them tremble with fear. After all, it was a Stage Four Undead creature. With their strength, they were far from being powerful enough to defeat it! Upon seeing this, Link spoke up! ¡°Yuna!¡± Yuna immediately understood and shouted, ¡°Holy Light Purification!¡± Yuna¡¯s four wings spread out behind her, and holy light fell down, bringing warmth to the group while dispelling the horror in their hearts and the ghostly aura around them! ¡°Uh... ah! Disgusting holy aura! I will make you all ves to the Undead!¡± To Undead creatures, holy energy was the energy type they hated the most! Yuna¡¯s sudden appearance made the Necromancer furious! ¡°Die!¡± With a roar, faint-green death magic swirled around the skull scepter in the Necromancer¡¯s hand, and an overwhelming sense of death descended upon the humans! With a wave of the skull scepter, faint-green death magic suddenly surged, attacking everyone! ¡°Humph! I will ovee this darkness with my holy light!¡± Yuna was slightly upset. Holy Angels were sworn enemies with the Undead. Her race¡¯s main mission was to purify the world of dark creatures! Upon seeing the Necromancer attack them first, Yuna couldn¡¯t bear it any longer! ¡°Pant!¡± The four-winged angel whizzed as she rose, and Yuna¡¯s aura became solemn and sacred. Rays of holy energy fell like stars, shining on the earth! Boom! Boom! Boom! The rays of holy light collided with the death aura, and bright light radiated in all directions! The holy light dispersed, and the death aura scattered at the same time. Both were of equal strength, more or less! Yuna was indeed a Super God-grade summoned creature. After advancing to Stage Two, her capabilities had increased. She could now contend with a Stage Four Undead creature head-on! The Necromancer felt furious upon seeing Yuna disperse its attack, and death aura violently surged within its body! This mere Stage Two Holy Angel dares to provoke me! She is simply courting death! ¡°The Great King...¡± The Necromancer raised its skull scepter and began reciting an ancient and unfamiliar spell! Death magic suddenly exploded out, enveloping the entire hospital. It sealed the areapletely, turning it into a ghost zone! Death aura diffused all over, turning the ground dark-green and the space dark! ¡°This... what is this?!¡± Luo Xinghe eximed. He realized that the corpses on the ground had begun moving! Crack! Crack! Crack! These corpses¡ªwhich were originally torn apart¡ªwere brought to life by the death aura and forced to stand! However, this was not the end. Along with the infusion of the death aura, the blood and flesh on those corpses dried up, leaving only their skeletons! Tens! Hundreds! Thousands! Tens of thousands! ... ... Countless skeletons stood up. The originally white skeletons were now covered in dark green runes. Ghost fire even appeared within their skulls! ¡°It¡¯s the Undead race¡¯s [Necromancer Summon]!¡± Link spoke up. He had fought Necromancers in his previous life and knew this creature¡¯s skills. Necromancers were able to summon powerful Undead creatures! However, these Undead creatures were not just summoned randomly. A certain set of conditions had to be met if a Necromancer wanted to cast [Necromancer Summon]! This ce was originally a hospital. When Doomsday descended, tens of thousands of people died here. The death aura here was so terrifyingly dense! The Necromancer had now cast [Necromancer Summon], which summoned these Undead creatures by gathering the death aura in this ce. The summoned Undead definitely would not be mediocre! Indeed, with the death aura¡¯s blessing and stimtion, several skeletons merged with one another and became a huge Skeleton Warrior! It was more than ten feet tall and had a huge skeleton sword in its hand. It was extremely brutal and violent! [Skeleton Warrior] Level: Stage Four, Level 1 Race: Undead Profession: Warrior An Undead creature summoned by a Necromancer using [Necromancer Summon]. It possesses high destructive and restorative capability! Since the Skeleton Warrior was formed from the gathered death aura, it would remain an indestructible existence as long as the death aura was not extinguished. This was also the reason why Necromancers held such important positions in the Scourge! With this skill, Necromancers could amplify Undead creatures¡¯ strength! Roar! The Skeleton Warrior, which had just appeared, directly swung the skeleton sword at Yuna! The giant skeleton sword was terrifying. It weighed tens of thousands of jin and was powerful enough to cut into a mountain and shatter rocks. Yuna¡¯s expression changed slightly. She pped her wings and deftly avoided the Skeleton Warrior¡¯s attack! Boom! A loud bang sounded! A deep pit formed on the ground. Dust scattered everywhere, and the scene was absolutely terrifying! ¡°You want topete and see who¡¯s stronger? God Devourer, show it what you¡¯re capable of!¡± Upon seeing the Skeleton Warrior¡¯s disy of power, Link raised his brow slightly and ordered the God Devourer Ant to attack! ¡°Zhi zhi!¡± God Devourer Ant called out and rushed toward the Skeleton Warrior! One could tell that the God Devourer Ant was very excited! After all, God Devourer Ants were experts when it came to strength. As a wild, primordial species known for its invincible power, God Devourer could tear the sky apart and touch the forbidden at its peak. If they werepeting with pure strength, the God Devourer Ant might not necessarily lose to it. Soon, the God Devourer Ant engaged in a battle with the Skeleton Warrior! Although God Devourer was only Stage Two at present, its strength was not something the Stage Four Skeleton Warrior could contend with. Boom! Both of them collided. The Skeleton Warrior¡¯s arm broke and turned into ashes, which scattered all over the ground! The Necromancer trembled upon seeing this. It couldn¡¯t even control the scattering death aura. Although the Skeleton Warrior¡¯s body was indestructible, its restoration speed was too slow when faced with the God Devourer Ant¡¯s attack rate. The Skeleton Warrior had basically lost its effect! How could the Necromancer not be mad? ¡°The Great King...¡± The Necromancer swung its skull scepter again in an attempt to cast another dark spell! However, Link no longer had the patience to entertain it. Thus, with a sharp, piercing gaze, Link indifferently said, ¡°It¡¯s time for the game to end!¡± At this moment, Link made a move. He charged toward the Necromancer as if he had turned into a sharp sword. He didn¡¯t want to waste any more time; he wanted to end this farce quickly! Chapter 38: Destroy the Necromancer!

Chapter 38: Destroy the Necromancer!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Roar! The Necromancer¡¯s angry howls reverberated through the hospital. The Necromancer was already at its wit¡¯s end. Holy Angel Yuna and the God Devourer Ant were so powerful it had no advantage over them at all. In fact, it was at a disadvantage. It was a Stage Four Necromancer, but it had beenpletely overwhelmed by two Stage Two creatures. Even the necromancy spells it had been proud of had been repeatedly thwarted and had not been of any use! A fire had been smoldering in the Necromancer¡¯s heart! Upon seeing Link charge towards it daringly, the Necromancer¡¯s eyes shed with ferocity and contempt! ¡°Lowly human, die!¡± The Necromancer sneered in disdain. In its opinion, humans were the weakest creatures, and there was no need to fear them at all! When it had first arrived, just one attack had killed hundreds of thousands of humans. Spirits were destroyed, and dead souls were left crying! Now, a Stage Two human actually dared to approach him. Did the human want to die? The Necromancer attacked first. It waved its skull scepter, which shot out a necromancy spell. A faint-green aura of death passed them by. It was full of deadly intent as if it was going to devour all life. The Necromancer¡¯s pupils were dark and full of disdain. Humans of this level could be wiped out with a wave of its hand! But could they really? Seeing the necromancy spelling his way, Link could feel a strong aura of death trying to devour the world and suck the very life from him! If he were an ordinary Stage Two creature, he wouldn¡¯t have been able to defend against the necromancy spell. His vitality would have beenpletely sucked away, and his body turned into bone meal! However, Link was no ordinary being. Although he was only a Stage Two being, his overall [Strength] totaled more than 4,000 points. This was not something an ordinary Stage Two existence couldpare with! With Link¡¯s current strength, he was in no way weaker than a Stage Four creature! Thus, the Necromancer was destined to suffer a big loss due to its carelessness! Link moved. However, he didn¡¯t avoid the necromancy spell. Instead, he met it head-on! ¡°Stupid!¡± The Necromancer sneered. There had been no low-level beings that could meet its necromancy spells head-on so far. Any creature that touched its spells would have even their bones liquefied! This human is so arrogant. He is bound to die! ¡°Am I?¡± No changes urred in the expression on Link¡¯s face, but a trace of amusement appeared in the corner of his eyes. Just as the necromancy spell was about to touch Link, Link let out a low growl, causing the earth to tremble! ¡°Holy Charge!¡± Link¡¯s body overflowed with golden holy light. The light swirled around him, turning him into a sharp de of light! Sweeping away everything in his path, Link went forward as if he were about to bore a hole through the world! The radiance was dazzling as Link turned into a holy knight of light, charging straight into the darkness of death and destroying everything in his path! The necromancy spell was purified and neutralized before it even touched Link. Even if it had found its mark, it would have done no damage! This was the power of Holy Charge. It granted one immunity to all control spells and damage during the charge. This immunitysted for three seconds. This was the time when offensive attacks were carried out! Link slowly walked forward until he was in front of the Necromancer, then punched it in the head! Boom! A loud explosion erupted, and dust flew everywhere! Then, a ck shadow suddenly flew out. It smashed through more than a dozen walls and created a gash, tens of meters long, on the ground before it came to a stop. Everyone looked on in absolute silence. They were all stunned, and their eyes were filled with horror! Even the Skeleton Warrior stopped moving. The ghost fire in its pupils began to sh crazily, seemingly full of horror. ¡°This is terrifying!¡± Luo Xinghe muttered under his breath, his eyes dazed and full of disbelief. Luo Xinghe knew that Link was very strong. The fact that he was able to kill Stage Three Undead was enough to show just how powerful he was! But this being here was not a Stage Three Undead. It was a Stage Four Necromancer! Furthermore, Link did not even draw his weapon. He had relied on his punch¡¯s force to send the Necromancer flying. It was just too frightening! If this punch hadnded on someone else, that person would have been dead already! ¡°Is this the Lord¡¯s power?¡± Luo Xinghe¡¯s eyes filled with longing. He was the Silvermoon Sword Emperor, and absolute power was something he had always craved. Upon seeing Link¡¯s power, his heart could only bow to it now. ¡°Uh... ahhhh!¡± At this moment, the Necromancer let out an extremely miserable howl, simr to the wail of a ghost sweeping across thend! The Necromancer roared in pain. It struggled to get up from the ground, but the severe injuries on its body were proof that it had been severely injured! The Necromancer¡¯s ck robes were torn, revealing an extremely ugly head. It was simr to a human head, but it was rotten through and covered with abscesses. Even though the skull had caved in, the scent of death still rose from it like a miasma. It looked very hideous and terrifying. ¡°Damn human, I¡¯m going to...!¡± The Necromancer opened its mouth again, but Link appeared again before it could finish speaking! Boom! Another punch,ing from above, directly sted a huge pit in the ground. This hole would be perfect for burying the Undead! ¡°Too noisy!¡± Link spoke indifferently, his tone cold! ¡°You...¡± The Necromancer spat out a big mouthful of blood. It was really embarrassing. It was a Stage Four Necromancer, yet it was beaten up so badly by a Stage Two human! ¡°The Great King...¡± The Necromancer wanted to chant and cast death magic! Boom! Link couldn¡¯t be bothered with the Necromancer any longer and simply bombarded it immediately! With more than 4,000 points in his [Strength] attribute, Link¡¯s attacks and destructive power were extremely mighty. Even a Stage Four Necromancer was unable to defend against him. The impact made the Necromancer vomit blood! ¡°The great necromancy spell...¡± Boom! ¡°The great demon...¡± Boom! ¡°The great...¡± Boom! ¡°Wait...¡± Boom! ¡°Don¡¯t...¡± Boom! ¡°Help...¡± Boom! ¡°...¡± Boom! Every time the Necromancer tried to cast a spell, Link sent it flying with a punch. It didn¡¯t have a chance to cast a spell at all! Although a Stage Four Necromancer was very powerful and frightening, it was only powerful because of the necromancy spells it had. However, as the saying goes, ¡®no matter how powerful one is, they always have a weakness!¡¯ No matter how powerful its spells were, the Necromancer was still weak against melee attacks! A Necromancer that had lost the ability to cast spells was like a punching bag. It could only bear the attacks helplessly since it had no ability to fight back! Everyone was dumbfounded by the sight. They thought it would be a fierce battle, but they didn¡¯t expect it to turn out to be a one-sided beating. Other than when the Necromancer showed off the terror of its necromancy spells at the beginning, the Necromancer¡¯s was not even as high as that of a State Two Undead Knight the rest of the time. Despite its high level, it was unable to withstand Link¡¯s terrifying punches! It was a Stage Four Undead, yet Link¡¯s punchespletely destroyed it! A puff of green smoke dissipated. There was no Necromancer here, only the remains of one scattered everywhere! Chapter 39: Massive Harvest!

Chapter 39: Massive Harvest!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios [Ding! You sessfully killed a Stage Four Necromancer. Gained 100,000 EXP!] [Ding! Since you killed a unit of a higher level, gain +500% bonus EXP.] [Ding!

Congrattions on your summoned creature¡ªGod Devourer Ant¡ªsessfully leveling up to Stage Two, Level 5!] ... As expected of a Stage Four Necromancer, the EXP gain was indeed massive, helping Link advance by four levels! Link smiled slightly, feeling quite ted in his heart. He could sense the massive increase in his attributes following the level ups! It should be known that each level up in Stage Two required way more EXP than in Stage One, about a few times more! Especially when Link had a Taboo-grade profession. For him, the difficulty of leveling was dozens of times more than that of a normal person! Even so, the EXP he gained from killing a Stage Four Necromancer was enough for him to level up four times. It could be seen how shocking this was! After leveling up, Link¡¯s attributes changed significantly. All of his stats exceeded 5,000 points, increasing his might significantly! Even Link was quite surprised that he could level up so many times in a single day! Clearing armies of creatures to level up is indeed awesome! Where can I find more EXP babies? Link expressed that he weed all of them, no matter how many there were! ording to his current leveling rate, he was sure that he could hold his own against the monster siegeing in eight days. If he continued getting stronger at this rate, there was nothing he needed to be afraid of then! Who knows, he might even earn huge gains from the monster siege! Although monster sieges were purges of humanity, it was also a good chance to be stronger! The monsters would eliminate the weak while the strong would use this chance to train themselves and enter a path of invincibility! As far as Link knew, many of the famed characters on the top 100 ranking board in theter stages of his previous life started bing well-known because of monster sieges. Due to this, Link was even slightly looking forward to the monster siegeing in eight days! Of course, he had something important to do now, and Link didn¡¯t forget about it! He had defeated the monster, and it was time to pick up the loot! Three items, shining with golden light, could be seen at the spot where the Necromancer died. The items consisted of a bone de, a bone ne, and a bone token! Link picked up the items and checked their information. [Skeleton Battle de]: Gold-grade This de was formed through [Necromancer Summon], using hundreds of thousands of undead bones as materials. Its power is very terrifying! Strength: 100 Constitution: 50 Additional skill 1: [Undead Curse (Strength)] (Passive Skill): The user will be cursed by the Undead. HP decreases by 10% per second, and Strength is enhanced by 30%! Additional Skill 2: [Undead Rage Scream] (Active Skill): The user can activate the de¡¯s power to summon an Undead creature, which will use the [Undead Shockwave] skill, causing the target to be petrified for 3 seconds! This was the weapon used by the Skeleton Warrior, which was summoned by the Necromancer earlier. When the Necromancer died, the Skeleton Warrior dissipated as well. This de was a very good weapon for the Undead. Since they were undead, they didn¡¯t care about losing HP at all. However, this de would be useless for a normal person if they tried to use it. After all, a normal person could only use it for ten seconds. If they couldn¡¯t kill the enemy within ten seconds, they would die from blood loss! However, there was no need to panic. Link had the Supreme Blessing talent! With this talent, he wasn¡¯t afraid of lousy or useless item drops. But Link didn¡¯t rush to bless the de. Instead, he continued to check the other items first! [Skeleton Ne]: Diamond-grade The magic ne worn by a Necromancer. It possesses powerful Undead Magic and can enhance a spell¡¯s damage! Additional skill 1: [Undead Curse (Intelligence)] (Passive Skill): User will be cursed by the Undead. HP decreases by 10% per second, and Intelligence is enhanced by 30%! Additional skill 2: [Heavenly Blessing of the Undead] (Passive Skill): Chanting duration of Undead skills reduced by 50%. Spell effects are also enhanced by 50%! Additional skill 3: [Undead Scourge] (Active Skill): Deplete 100% HP to obtain the Undead Holy Mage¡¯s blessing and summon the Undead Holy Mage¡¯s illusion into battle. Last 2 seconds! [Note: The Undead Holy Mage¡¯s power limit is based on the level of the summoner!] Upon seeing the ne¡¯s description, Link¡¯s heart trembled! The ne was a super awesome treasure. Since it was Diamond-grade, it had three skills! However, the disadvantage of Undead items was that they caused HP loss. They weren¡¯t things normal people could use! However, what attracted Link¡¯s attention the most was the [Undead Scourge] skill! Although this was a suicide skill¡ªthe caster would die after using this skill¡ªthe power of this skill was extremely terrifying! The Undead Holy Mage was the Undead race¡¯s leader, an existence akin to God. Even though the Undead Holy Mage¡¯s power would be restricted by the summoner¡¯s level, the power it could exhibit was still way beyond the limits of a normal person! After all, the Undead Holy Mage was an existence akin to God. It could destroy stars with a wave of its hand. Even if its power was restricted, it could still defeat beings of the same stage easily. Thinking up to this point, Link felt quite lucky. He felt lucky that he didn¡¯t give the Necromancer a chance to cast its spells. If not, it might have used this skill to summon the Undead Holy Mage¡¯s illusion to kill him when it was about to die. If that had happened, things would¡¯ve been troublesome for Link. However, it was already over, and this treasure was in his possession now. Next, Link looked towards thest item. It was a bone token, looking extremely small and delicate. It was full of de demon runes, looking extremely strange. Its description was very simple. [Token of Sin]: The wearer can open the City of the Undead! It only had these few words, but these words made Link¡¯s expression change! This was because he had heard of the City of the Undead in his previous life! It was an excellent dungeon for leveling up. It was also a ce the big factions in his previous life fought over in order to enter! It should be known that this world wasn¡¯t a normal world anymore, but [Doomsday Online]! In a normal online game, other than the wild monsters that could be killed for EXP, the most important thing was dungeons, which were used for grinding and leveling! This was because monsters would spawn endlessly in dungeons! Dungeon monsters also dropped equipment and treasures; humans also wouldn¡¯t die in the dungeons! For humans¡ªwho faced life and death every day¡ªdungeons were like paradise. They were the ideal ce for humans to train and be more powerful! ording to Link¡¯s memories of his previous life, this City of the Undead was one of the most important dungeons in theter stage. However, it was upied by the Temple of Light, a powerful faction feared and respected throughout the world at the time. Those who wished to enter the City of the Undead to train had to give an extremely expensive treasure to the Temple of Light in order to stay inside for a short period of time. Also, nobody knew the City of the Undead¡¯s exact location. All information about the City of the Undead was controlled by the Temple of Light¡¯s people behind the scenes. Without a powerful faction and many resources as one¡¯s backing, it was impossible to enter the City of the Undead at all! Since he was a lone ranger in his previous life, he didn¡¯t have enough equipment and resources for his own use, much less have enough to pay for a single entry to the City of the Undead. Even though Link didn¡¯t understand the City of the Undead very well, this didn¡¯t prevent him from hearing of its prestigious reputation! However, he never thought that the token to open the City of the Undead would actually appear in his hands in this lifetime! Chapter 40: [Necklace of the Holy Spirit]!

Chapter 40: [Ne of the Holy Spirit]!

As he caressed the token that felt slightly metallic, Link could sense a mysterious power pulling him along, leading him somewhere! This feeling came from behind Mingshi Hospital! Link¡¯s eyebrow twitched, and his heart trembled. ording to his understanding, this Mingshi Hospital was built at this spot dozens of years ago. However, before that, this ce used to be a cemetery on a piece of wastnd. It was a famous cemetery spot in Dragon City. Then, the wastnd was shifted away because the city was built here. The cemetery was leveled as well, and the hospital was built in its ce. However, Mingshi Hospital¡¯s leaders shifted the cemetery to the back of the hospital due to the pressure of public opinion! Moreover, this made things more convenient. If someone died in the hospital, their corpse didn¡¯t need to be shifted somewhere else but could be directly ced into Mingshi Cemetery! This was really a one-stop service! This also caused Mingshi Hospital¡¯s reputation to improve greatly! But Link could clearly sense that the ce the [Token of Sin] was pointing him toward was this Mingshi Cemetery! ¡°Could it be that this is the entrance to the City of the Undead?¡± Link muttered to himself. He had already made a decision in his mind, but he wasn¡¯t in a hurry to go there now. Although the City of the Undead was a training ce that countless people were jealous of, a great horror was hidden inside! When entering the City of the Undead, humans would enter in their spirit form. If their spirit form died inside, their main body wouldn¡¯t die, but their spirit would be severely damaged! Compared to external injuries, spirit injuries were even more terrifying. This was because spirit injuries could only be healed by time or special herbs that could heal the spirit. Therefore, it was better not to enter the dungeon first before he had absolute confidence in himself! The more important thing now was to increase his power! Link put away the [Token of Sin] and then took out the [Skeleton Ne]. This ne was a very powerful treasure, akin to the Undead race¡¯s godly artifacts. However, it wasn¡¯t suitable for human usage because it was a cursed item that absorbed life. However, Link didn¡¯t need to worry about this! Supreme Blessing! Whilereciting the skill¡¯s name silently in his heart, a brilliant light instantly shot out from his body. The supreme power of fortune then descended from the sky,nding on the [Skeleton ne]! Chi! Momentarily, a shining and dazzling light filled their sights! The bone ne covered in light seemed as if it had been washed and refined. The death inscriptions originally engraved on the ne had disappeared and were reced by light runes full of holy power! [Ding! Blessing seeded!] [Ding! Congrattions on obtaining the Holy Spirit Ne (Super God)!] Upon hearing the notification sound in his mind, Link¡¯s body stopped for a while, the light in his eyes flickering. It actually became a Super God-grade ne! Link looked at the [Holy Spirit Ne]¡¯s attributes. [Holy Spirit Ne] Grade: Super God (Upgradable) Description: The ne worn exclusively by the Holy Spirit of Light; it is full of the endless power of light! Additional skill 1: [Holy Spirit Blessing] (Passive Skill): The wearer will receive the Holy Spirit of Light¡¯s blessing. Wearer¡¯s Intelligence is enhanced by 300% and is granted immunity to light-type spells! Additional skill 2: [Heavenly Blessing of the Holy Spirit] (Active Skill): The wearer can buff self or friendly unit with the Heavenly Blessing of the Holy Spirit. Blessed units deal 500% additional light-type damage to Undead units, and their light-type spells¡¯ power is enhanced by 50%. Cooldown time: 60 seconds. Additional skill 3: [Holy Sword of the Light] (Active Skill): The wearer can activate the power of light inside the ne to create the Holy Sword of the Light. Deal 1,000% of wearer¡¯s Intelligence attribute as light damage! Additional skill 4: [World Illumination]: Hidden skill. Since the Holy Spirit Ne is damaged, this skill is unable to be used! After reading the [Holy Spirit Ne]¡¯s information, Link let out a long breath. As expected of a Super God-grade ne. Both its attribute enhancement and skills are totally terrifying! What¡¯s more, this ne seems to be in a damaged state. If it is in perfect form, how powerful will it be? This Holy Spirit Ne¡¯s attributes were almost on par with that of Link¡¯s Taboo-grade [Void God Summoning Ring]! As expected of the Holy Spirit of Light¡¯s exclusive ne, it is indeed powerful! Without any hesitation, Link directly wore the [Holy Spirit Ne]. At this instant, Link felt an immensely vast spiritual force enter his mind. It was a force full of light¡ªlike the sun¡¯s rays descending from the sky, bathing him in an ocean of light. At the same time, Link¡¯s body radiated light. A radiant white light full of holiness enveloped him! ¡°Wow, the Lord is really handsome!¡± ¡°He¡¯s like a deity who descended to the mortal realm!¡± Beside him, the others couldn¡¯t help but gasp in surprise when they witnessed this scene. They could sense how terrifying Link¡¯s presence was bing! Before this, Link was like an impassable mountain to them; the feeling he gave them was profound. But he felt like the stars to them now¡ªunfathomable! The difference between these two versions of Link wasn¡¯t just a bit or two! A whileter, the light finally faded and was absorbed into Link¡¯s body. At the same time, Link violently opened his eyes, the light in his eyes flickering! Puff! Link opened his mouth and let out a white-colored gas. In his heart, he was extremely excited. As expected of the Holy Spirit of Light¡¯s exclusive ne, it has enhanced my power tremendously! Just the Intelligence attribute boost alone doubled his original Intelligence, bringing it to 15,000-plus points, exceeding his other attributes by a lot! If he had a profession with a different core attribute type, maybe this increase in Intelligence wouldn¡¯t be useful. However, Link had a [Summoner] profession! Since he was a [Great Void Taboo Master], the highest his Intelligence, the more powerful his mental strength became. He would also be able to control more creatures! At this moment, Link sensed that the time for the third summon hade! ¡°Since this is the case, then let¡¯splete it in one go!¡± Link breathed softly, directing his gaze to the [Void God Summoning Ring] he wore. He was secretly looking forward to what kind of powerful summoned creature he would summon this third time! His first summon was a Super God-grade Holy Angel! His second summon was a peerless beast from ancient times, a God Devourer Ant! This third summoned creature naturally shouldn¡¯t be much worse than his previous ones! Thinking of this, Link didn¡¯t hesitate and directly channeled his mental strength into the [Void God Summoning Ring]! The ocean-like volume of mental strength entered the [Void God Summoning Ring] like a surging tide, instantly causing a radiant, holy light to ignite! Chi! A brilliant light shot towards the sky as if it were summoning the stars and lighting up the sky! The starlight from the entire sky gathered and connected the various stars together, forming a strange formation! The sky trembled momentarily, and the light from the sky lit up the world, shocking the entire Dragon City! In the city, countless living beings looked up at the sky and saw this strange phenomenon. All of their eyes were filled with shock. ¡°What¡¯s... that?¡± ¡°Is the world going to be destroyed?¡± Countless people shouted in surprise. They could sense an extremely powerful force ascending into the sky as if it were going to tear the sky apart! Chapter 41: Chimera!

Chapter 41: Chimera!

Rumble! Thunder rumbled, shaking the sky and earth! The sky was covered with endless lightning, which danced in the air like snakes. It was as if the lightning was going to tear open arge hole in the sky! Boom! Following a violent tremble in the air, a ray of starlight suddenly dropped from the sky! It was as if the stars were recing the sky, drawing an indescribably beautiful scene! Upon seeing this scene, all of the living creatures in Dragon City had all kinds of different thoughts and ideas. ¡°This is a disaster; the world is going to end!¡± The weak humans cried andmented. Just the appearance of the Undead had already filled them with despair! Now, this scene was even more like a catastrophe; it was like the world was going to be destroyed! ¡°What a powerful presence! A treasure is descending nearby!¡± However, some people shook and locked their gazes on the falling starlight, their pupils filled with greed. All these people were stronger beings, and a powerful aura radiated from their bodies as well. They could tell that this scene wasn¡¯t that of a catastrophe, but more like a treasure descending! The entire Dragon City was stirred momentarily. West of Dragon City. Someone humped coldly and said, ¡°This treasure definitely belongs to our Blood Fiend Gang. Once we obtain it, we will definitely be able to dominate Dragon City!¡± The speaker was a sturdy man with a knife scar at the corner of his eyes, which ran through half of his face. He was full of hostility and looked fierce. In his hand was a blood-red broadsword that still dripped blood! The area around him was filled with corpses. However, these corpses didn¡¯t belong to the Undead, but to humans. Around him were dozens of humans simrly dressed in blood-red robes. All of them gave off hostile auras, obviously showing they were vicious people who had killed many humans. ¡°I, Blood Fiend, shall be the ruler of this world!¡± The corners of the man¡¯s mouth cracked open into a smile, and he licked the blood that had sttered onto his face, looking extremely cruel and vicious. ¡°Lord Blood Fiend is awesome!¡± ¡°Lord Blood Fiend is the number one in the world!¡± The surrounding people all cheered. They were like devout and fanatical believers who worshipped Blood Fiend! ¡°My boys, follow me and kill!¡± Blood Fiend smiled maliciously and was the first to move. He walked towards the ce where the starlightnded with the broadsword on his shoulder. ... North of Dragon City. A research institute filled with a sense of technology. An old man slouched in a wheelchair. His hair was white and his face full of wrinkles, but his expression didn¡¯t look dispirited at all! The instant he saw the starlight, a scarlet light shed in his eyes. Mechanical-like pupils turned in his eyes! Kra kra kra! A series of metallic sounds reverberated! Then, the originally disabled old man actually stood up from the wheelchair. The lower part of his body had fake limbs constructed from alloy gears. A ck-light shone on these fake limbs, filled with a dangerous presence. ¡°Report, Doctor Ghost! A treasure fell from the sky andnded in Dragon City¡¯s eastern region!¡± Behind the old man, two men dressed in alloy armors respectfully reported the situation! ¡°Have everyone in Alloy Team One move out. Our ck Dragon Gang shall definitely get hold of this treasure! With it, we will be able to dominate Dragon City!¡± said Doctor Ghost. His voice was hoarse as dead wood, but it was extremely solemn and full of killing intent. ¡°Yes!¡± replied the two men and instantly retreated. A short whileter, a group of men¡ªcovered in alloy armor¡ªmoved out towards Dragon City¡¯s eastern region. Wherever they passed, the ce would bepletely leveled. It was like they were unstoppable! ... Dragon City No. 1 Middle School. ¡°It¡¯s now an apocalyptic world. The Undead have invaded the whole world, and human beings are suffering. It¡¯s really a terrible sight to behold. However, this school is so quiet, as if someone has cleared it of dark creatures. It looks like someone here has awakened a powerful talent and profession!¡± While watching this peaceful and quiet Dragon City No. 1 Middle School, a golden-haired man with jade-green pupils softlyughed, feeling quite interested. ¡°Such a talented person should join our Temple of Light!¡± said the man, but the falling starlight then attracted his attention. ¡°That¡¯s... Interesting! Someone actually dared to cause such argemotion at the start of the apocalyptic world! I shall see which talented person it is!¡± A golden light shed in that man¡¯s pupils. Then, he strode towards Dragon City¡¯s eastern region. His pace seemed slow, but a golden light flowed beneath his feet. In reality, he traversed 100 meters with each step¡ªhe was extremely fast! The entire Dragon City was like a pot of cooking soup for a moment, boiling! At this moment, Link didn¡¯t know that his third summoning had made this ce be the center of everyone¡¯s attention! All of Link¡¯s attention was currently focused in front of him, where the starlight hadnded! The light dimmed, and the dust dispersed. They could finally see clearly the figure inside. [Ding! Congrattions on summoning Chimera (Super God)!] [Chimera] Grade: Super God (Advanceable) Race: Divine Wrath God Description: It is the God of Divine Wrath¡¯s twin brother, and it represents destruction. It has been sealed and cursed by the God of Divine Wrath and turned into Chimera.

Chimera isn¡¯t powerful enough yet. Unable to be used. Status: Aura of the Gods (All attributes +30%) ... Upon hearing the introduction in his mind, Link looked overjoyed. As expected, this time¡¯s summoned creature doesn¡¯t disappoint! If it could be said that Yuna was a support and God Devourer was a warrior, then Chimera was a powerful mage! Since it possessed the power of darkness, Chimera¡¯s powers would be the most terrifying magic, and what¡¯s more, it also had a wide AoE attack! Chimera was practically the best choice for killing mobs of monsters and leveling! With Chimera, Undead Tides and Zerg swarms would all be EXP babies for Link. However, two things puzzled Link. Why is this Chimera of the Divine Wrath God Race? Also, what is the Divine Wrath God Race? Puff puff! At this moment, the dust slowly dispersed, and Chimera¡¯s figure gradually appeared! Everyone looked in its direction, their eyes filled with curiosity. All of them wanted to know what kind of living being could cause such a terrifying phenomenon. Was it something simr to the God Devourer Ant? But a soft shout of surprise sounded instead! ¡°Wow, what an adorable little doggy!¡± It was Yang Xuerou who spoke, and her words caused everyone present to freeze. Chapter 42: Star Moon!

Chapter 42: Star Moon!

The starlight shed, and the dust slowly dispersed. Inside Mingshi Hospital, Link and his group all looked in front of them. They wanted to see how magnificent this being¡ªwhich caused such argemotion when it appeared¡ªwould look like. They had previously witnessed the God Devourer Ant¡¯s arrival. The scene of its arrival was majestic, and its power was terrifying! This current scene was as majestic as the God Devourer Ant¡¯s arrival. To a certain extent, it was even more spectacr. This caused them to be filled with even more anticipation! However, they all went into a daze when they saw the figure that appeared when the dust finally disappeared. It was a ck autumn creature, only dozens of centimeters in size. It had short limbs and looked pocket-sized. It looked like a puppy as itid on the groundzily with a pair of small sleepy eyes as if it wasn¡¯t fully awake yet. What?! This little thing is the being that caused such a majestic scene? This ispletely unbelievable! Everyone¡¯s eyes were dazed as if they were shocked. It wasn¡¯t just them. Even Link froze for a while as well. This little thing is the Super God Chimera? God, are you kidding? ¡°Wow, so cute!¡± The girls were all attracted by this little thing instead. Even the normally calm Luo Xingyao and Qiao Ruowei couldn¡¯t help but keep looking at it too! ¡°Aooo!¡± After seeing everyone looking at it, the little creature also reacted. It opened its dark, crystal-like pupils¡ªwhich shed with liveliness¡ªand made puppy-like shouts. It then climbed up from the ground and crookedly walked to Link. The creature rubbed its head on his trousers, its eyes full of fawning. ¡°Link, did you summon this little thing? It¡¯s really too cute!¡± said Yang Xuerou softly. Her heart almost melted as she stared at the Chimera¡¯s small and adorable appearance. Link nodded slightly and hugged the little thing hiding under his leg as he examined it carefully. The third summoning only summoned such a little thing! The contrast is really big! Link was quite puzzled. The creatures he summoned the previous two times were both powerful beings that dominated their homnd! One was a Holy Angel, while the other a God Devourer Ant from ancient times. Both were extremely powerful. However, the little thing he had just summoned didn¡¯t look majestic at all. Was it going to kill its enemies by making them die from cuteness? As if it could sense Link¡¯s emotions, the little Chimera whimpered softly, appearing to be quite dejected. ... ¡°Alright, I shall call you Star Moon from now on instead of Chimera!¡± Link sighed. It would be difficult for others to link the name ¡®Chimera¡¯ and this little thing together if he simply named it ¡®Chimera¡¯. However, Link didn¡¯t worry about it because he already knew that this little thing wasn¡¯t as simple as it looked. This was because Star Moon¡¯s introduction mentioned that it was the God of Divine Wrath¡¯s twin brother and represented destruction. It was sealed and cursed by the God of Divine Wrath and turned into Chimera. Therefore, Star Moon likely had such an appearance because its power was sealed. After all, Star Moon was a Super God-grade summoned creature. It definitely had its strengths! ¡°Ao ao!¡± Upon hearing Link¡¯s words, Star Moon instantly jumped about. Its lively, small eyes curved into crescents, indicating that it was very happy. ¡°Go, y!¡± Link waved his hand. The girls instantly walked up and started teasing Star Moon. This little thing was really too likable. ¡°It¡¯s already the third day since the apocalyptic world descended. There isn¡¯t much longer until the monster siege now!¡± Link took in a deep breath as he stared at Dragon City, where the sky was starting to light up. He hadn¡¯t forgotten about the monster siege that woulde in seven days! The monster siege wasn¡¯t a simple disaster. It was much more terrifying than the apocalyptic world¡¯s descent. It was also the first round of thorough shuffling! Only the strong survived, while the weak were eliminated. All of the weaklings would bepletely eliminated in this cmity. Only truly outstanding people had a chance of surviving. Link¡¯s power had increased very quickly in the past few days. He could even kill a Stage Four Necromancer easily! However, Link knew that he wasn¡¯t strong enough! The monster siege wasn¡¯t something a single person could fight against! Since he was a long ranger in his previous life, he naturally knew how insignificant a single person¡¯s strength was. Even the most powerful people would eventually face circumstances where their own power wasn¡¯t enough! However, things were different for Link in this lifetime! He now hadpanions, friends, and summoned creatures beside him, who would all follow him to the death! He would definitely not repeat his past mistakes this time! In this lifetime, he would definitely climb to the peak of the world! While watching the people in front of him, the light in Link¡¯s eyes shed. The people under him were all very talented. Even one of the ten most powerful characters in thetter part of his previous life was amongst them¡ª[Demon Sealing Arrow] Luo Xingyao! If he increased the power of the people under him, they would be an extremely powerful force! However, this wasn¡¯t something easy. Just killing wild monsters¡ªas they were doing now¡ªwouldn¡¯t be enough to strengthen them to the point of being useful during the monster siege. If it were before, Link might still fee; troubled by this! However, all of his problems were now solved because he held the key to the City of the Undead in his hand! The City of the Undead was an important blessednd where they would increase in level and strength! ... Rumble! Right at this moment, amotion sounded. They could then see smoke covering the end of the streets, and there was a lot of it. Dust was flying about over there. Shouts resounded through the air as if an army was charging towards them, causing the buildings beside the street to copse and the rubble to fly everywhere! ¡°What happened?¡± Link¡¯s and his group¡¯s attention were attracted by thismotion. Their eyebrows knitted together tightly because they saw a well-equipped human trooping towards them. ¡°What are these people here for?¡± Luo Xinghe spoke in a deep voice. He could sense that those people were full of murderous air and menace! ¡°Is it because of Star Moon?¡± said Yang Xuerou. She was carrying the small Star Moon in her arms at this moment and seemed to understand the situation. Just now, Star Moon caused arge scene when it appeared. Some people were definitely attracted by the scene and came to seize whatever caused it. ¡°Looks like they didn¡¯te with good intentions!¡± Luo Xinghe¡¯s tone was solemn. He could sense that this troop wasn¡¯t simple! ¡°Lord, what should we do?¡± Luo Xingyao asked. Her tone was cold, and she clenched the [Bow of Elf] in her hand tightly, ready to start killing at any moment! She wouldn¡¯t let go of the people who dared to offend Link! ¡°Let¡¯s y with them!¡± Link said insipidly as his mouth curled up into a slight smile; there was a hint of coldness in the smile. ording to what he knew, what they needed to be most wary of in this apocalyptic world weren¡¯t Undead creatures but humans. Along with the arrival of the apocalypse, the people filled with greed, sin, bloodlust, violence, and other such evils had shed their disguises. Link didn¡¯t feel the slightest bit of pity towards these types of people! He would definitely kill the people who dared to offend him! Upon hearing Link¡¯s words, the others all braced themselves for battle. Luo Xingyao clenched the [Bow of Elf] tightly, and Xue Linglong drew her spear from its sheath. Qiao Ruowei¡¯s figure slowly disappeared to the side. She was like a poisonous snake, ready to deal a lethal strike at any moment! Chapter 43: Attack of the Black Dragon Gang!

Chapter 43: Attack of the ck Dragon Gang!

¡°Boss, the ce where the starlightnded just now is Mingshi Hospital!¡± Not far away, a group of people was moving towards Mingshi Hospital. They were all dressed in alloy armor and gave off fearsome auras. ¡°This time, Doctor Ghost has ordered us to bring the treasure back! Brothers, Doctor Ghost will reward whoever can bring back the treasure with a piece of Diamond-grade equipment!¡± said the leader of Alloy Team One. His tone was solemn, but it made everyone present invigorated! In this apocalyptic world, other than leveling up, equipment would increase one¡¯sbat power the most! A piece of Diamond-grade equipment could bring one a very terrifying enhancement in power! If Stage One Humans only used Bronze-grade equipment, they probably wouldn¡¯t even be able to defeat a Stage Two Undead Knight! However, the result would definitely be different if they had Diamond-grade equipment! With such equipment, Stage One humans would easily defeat Undead Knights! This was also what happened to Luo Xingyao. Ever since she obtained [the Bow of Elf]¡ªwhich Link gave her¡ªkilling Undead creatures became very easy for her. She could practically kill them with one attack. Of course, this was closely rted to her profession, [Demon Sealing Arrow], and talent. However, the powerful equipment had also boosted herbat power significantly. Gold-grade equipment could already increase her power by so much, let alone a piece of Diamond-grade equipment! Thus, this announcement was enough to make anyone go crazy! After seeing his men¡¯s enthusiasm ignited, the leader of Alloy Team One continued saying, ¡°Brothers, Doctor Ghost has the most powerful crafting ability. He can craft all kinds of powerful weapons and items. Even the Silver-grade armor you guys are wearing now was crafted by him alone. ¡°As long as you guys serve the ck Dragon Gang, you guys will definitely enjoy fame and fortune in the future!¡± shouted Alloy Team One¡¯s leader. The others all responded with, ¡°Serve Doctor Ghost; follow the ck Dragon Gang until death!¡± The leader showed a smile of satisfaction; he then gave themand to march towards Mingshi Hospital! Very quickly, they appeared in front of Link and his group. ¡°Kid, hand over the treasure, and I shall spare your life!¡± Upon seeing Link and his group, a cold light shed in the eyes of Alloy Team One¡¯s leader. In his eyes, he thought someone else had reached before them and that the treasure was definitely in their hands now. However, he didn¡¯t mind this. These people didn¡¯t look like an organized force. They wouldn¡¯t pose any threat to him and his men. If they handed over the treasure obediently, he might be in a good mood and let them off for once. However, he would kill them all if they dared to reject. ¡°ck Dragon Gang?¡± Link¡¯s eyebrows slightly furrowed when he saw these people. He had recognized who these people were. These people all wore Silver-grade alloy equipment; the leader was even wearing Gold-grade alloy equipment! At the start of [Doomsday Online], who else could provide so many pieces of Silver-grade equipment other than Link? However, Link knew that there was one faction that possessed such a resource! In the memories of his previous life, some factions that were known throughout the world existed within the human race¡¯s home cities. These factions controlled the life and death of millions of people; they could even rival the Undead and Zerg Alliance¡¯s top factions. One of these factions was called ck Dragon Gang! This faction was known for its equipment and was one of the most powerful factions! Link had once heard that ck Dragon Gang¡¯s Doctor Ghost had a Myth-grade crafting skill. In theter parts of his previous life, this Doctor Ghost even crafted Myth-grade equipment! The people from ck Dragon Gang were all fully equipped and overpowered others with their equipment. This was also what they were renowned for! Link never thought that he would encounter people from ck Dragon Gang so early. It really was an interesting situation. What Link truly cared about was Doctor Ghost, who had a Myth-grade crafting skill. His skill seemed simr to his Supreme Blessing¡ªboth could increase equipment attributes. However, Link¡¯s Supreme Blessing was several times more powerful than Doctor Ghost¡¯s Myth-grade crafting skill. The two of them weren¡¯t on the same level! ¡°You know who we are?¡± Upon hearing Link¡¯s words, the leader¡¯s pupils constricted slightly. Their ck Dragon Gang was hidden from the public¡¯s eyes, only rising into prominence when the apocalyptic world descended. He never thought that someone would already hear of their name in this early stage. ¡°Since you have heard of our name, hurry up and hand over the treasure then!¡± The leader humphed coldly, his tone contemptuous. In his eyes, Link and his group were just a bunch of untrained people. How could they beparable to his ck Dragon Gang? ¡°The treasure is here; take it if you have the capability to!¡± said Link insipidly as he looked at the alloy leader with scorn. Link didn¡¯t discover any powerful people amongst the troops here and instantly felt uninterested. Amongst this group of men, the most powerful person was their leader, who was equipped with Gold-grade equipment. He was a Stage Two, Level 5 existence. If it were someone else facing him, the alloy leader would be an impassable mountain. However, in front of Link, Alloy Team One¡¯s leader was like an ant that he could casually squash. Alloy Team One¡¯s leader wasn¡¯t able to attract his attention at all. ¡°Linglong, get rid of these annoying flies!¡± Link waved his hand and turned around, walking towards the back. He set up the deck chair and started watching the show. ¡°Yes, Lord!¡± Xue Linglong answered and walked forth while holding the [Spear of the Frosty Moon]. Although she was facing arge number of people, her expression was as calm as always! ¡°Presumptuous! You actually dared to send a woman to fight us! You really are seeking death!¡± When the alloy leader saw Xue Linglong walk up, disdain filled his eyes as he coldly ridiculed them. ¡°001, 002, the two of you, go and teach her a lesson!¡± The leader waved his hand and casually sent two men, preparing to get rid of Xue Linglong quickly. ¡°Yes!¡± Two armored men replied and walked up rampantly. Their alloy armor shone and loudly rattled as they walked, looking very impressive! They were both Stage One, Level 9 beings. With Silver-grade armor equipped, theirbat power was on par with that of a Stage Two Undead Knight. They could also tell that Xue Linglong was only a Stage One, Level 8 being. She wasn¡¯t their match at all. Therefore, the two men¡¯s eyes showed cruelty as they violently charged! ¡°Go to hell!¡± The alloy-armored men charged towards her, carrying a force so heavy it seemed like they could smash through gold and iron. Xue Linglong¡¯s expression remained unchanged, still as cold as ever. The [Spear of the Frosty Moon] in her hand flipped and shot out like a dragon! If it were a normal Stage One, Level 8 being, they definitely wouldn¡¯t be a match for these two armored men at all. Their body would be directly crushed! But Xue Linglong was different. She was a Diamond-grade [Fighter], the [Extreme Ice Combat Maiden]. She was also holding the Diamond-grade [Spear of the Frosty Moon]! Her level aside, her profession, talent, and equipment all overpowered the two men! A dot of cold light appeared first, followed by a dragon-like spear! The [Spear of the Frosty Moon] had a blue glow, and its frost chilled the men to the bones, directly slowing down the two armored men¡¯s movements! nk! The sound of metals meeting reverberated! The [Spear of the Frosty Moon] directly pierced through one of the men¡¯s Silver-grade alloy armor, creating a huge hole! ¡°Humph!¡± Xue Linglong humphed coldly, giving off a cold aura. She swung the spear, sending the man¡¯s corpse flying. The members of Alloy Team One all sucked in a cold breath in unison, their eyes momentarily filled with horror! Chapter 44: Blood Fiend Arrives, Luo Xinghe Rises Up!

Chapter 44: Blood Fiend Arrives, Luo Xinghe Rises Up!

Therge hospital was dead silent! Alloy Team One was presently like a dumb shell; their overbearing manners had disappeared! They did not expect a female¡ªwho appeared ordinary¡ªwould actually kill one of their team members with crushing momentum! This was too frightening! That team member was a Stage One, Level 9 expert wearing silver alloy armor! Was he that deplorable? Although 002 had survived by a stroke of luck, his body trembled ceaselessly, and his gaze was an extremely terrified one. He witnessed hispanion dying beside him. That berserk force was immense and unstoppable; it already made him feel deathing close! Alloy Team One¡¯s leader had a livid expression, and he felt utterly indignant. He did not expect that a moment of oversight would cost him a team member! ¡°Tsk tsk tsk, is this truly Alloy Team One, ck Dragon Gang¡¯s so-called sharp tool of attack?¡± ¡°Couldn¡¯t even deal with a weak female, how embarrassing!¡± Just then, a jesting sneer sounded. Everyone looked over and saw that a group of humans¡ªdressed in blood-red robes and emitting bloodthirsty auras from head to toe¡ªwalked over from the other side of the street! ¡°Blood Fiend Gang¡¯s mad dogs? What, do you people also want to interfere?¡± The alloy leader snorted coldly, his countenance growing increasingly grim as he watched the crowd of Blood Fiend Gang continuouslye closer and closer. As Alloy Team One¡¯s leader, he still had an extremelyprehensive grasp of information. This Blood Fiend Gang was simrly a great influence that had sprung up in the period of Doomsday. They used awfully evil powers and brought disaster to Dragon City. Blood Fiend Gang used heretical means to absorb humans¡¯ blood and essence to boost their abilities and grant them rapid leveling up speeds. Although the alloy leader held contempt towards Blood Fiend Gang, they were a bunch of difficult people after all. ¡°Why not? The ck Dragon Gang can be here, so why can¡¯t our Blood Fiend Gange?¡± The person leading Blood Fiend Gang was that red-headed, ferocious-looking Blood Fiend. Blood Fiend dragged along a broadsword, dripping with blood, with his hand. A savage yet bloodthirsty aura burst out all over him, which alsopletely disyed his level! Stage Two, Level 8! It had only been a brief three days since the apocalyptic world arrived, yet Blood Fiend had advanced to Stage Two, Level 8. This was enough proof of how terrifying this Blood Fiend Gang¡¯s sorceries were! Upon seeing Blood Fiende forward, a hint of apprehension was revealed on the alloy leader¡¯s face before he sneered icily and said, ¡°Then let¡¯s see who canugh till the end!¡± Though he was wary about the Blood Fiend Gang¡¯s capabilities, he did not fear them. After all, Alloy Team One wasn¡¯t a group to be trifled with as well! ¡°Why, disregarding us now?¡± shouted Luo Xinghe coldly. Are these people treating us asmbs waiting to be ughtered? ¡°Yo, I was wondering who it was! It turns out it¡¯s the Luo siblings!¡± After seeing Luo Xinghee forward, a vicious glimmer glowed in Blood Fiend¡¯s eyes, and he promptly wore a cold smile. ¡°Given the abilities of you siblings, I¡¯m afraid that both of you won¡¯t be enough for me to kill!¡± Blood Fiend taunted them. He had gotten a clear look at Luo Xinghe¡¯s and Luo Xingyao¡¯s capabilities. They were merely Stage One, Level 9 beings; they were absolutely no match for him. Whiz! Before Blood Fiend could speak again, a sharp gleam passed through horizontally! Swoosh! The arrow shot out swiftly, shrouded in a glow as it directly flew towards Blood Fiend. Luo Xingyao had acted and fired the [Bow of Elf], her killing intent rming. ¡°Hmph!¡± Blood Fiend snorted coldly. The vigor in his body burst out, and the blood-red broadsword swept across horizontally, directly chopping the arrow in two. ¡°Your capabilities are too weak!¡± Blood Fiend shook his head, and his head of bloody hair danced wildly. The brutality in his gaze also grew stronger and stronger! ¡°Back when your Luo family went through a bloodbath, only you siblings escaped. Today, I am going to kill all of you remaining evils here!¡± Blood Fiend grinned hideously. His heretical vigor was like a bone-eroding ferocious ghost that was about to devour the humans. ¡°Damn it! I must kill you today!¡± Luo Xinghe was enraged, and his body trembled. Lifting the mountain knife that was already slightly wrecked, Luo Xinghe swung it towards Blood Fiend. Grudges had evidently long existed between the Luo siblings and this Blood Fiend! Unfortunately, the gap between the two parties¡¯ capabilities was too great. Luo Xinghe had only fought a few bouts before Blood Fiend managed tond a kick on his chest, sending him flying invertedly. Pu chi! Luo Xinghe was covered in blood, his body severely wounded! ¡°Too weak! If your Luo family members were to know that the seeds of hope they desperately fought to send out were this useless, they probably won¡¯t be able to rest in peace!¡± snapped Blood Fiend harshly, icily staring at Luo Xinghe, who had fallen to the ground. His gaze was extremely disdainful! ¡°Xinghe, do not be flustered when you handle affairs. Even beating a dog requires the correct method!¡± Right then, Link¡¯s voice sounded. At the same time, a golden holy glow descended and enveloped Luo Xinghe, instantly healing his injuries! ¡°Lord!¡± Upon hearing Link¡¯s words, Luo Xinghe bowed his head powerlessly. He clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles were white! ¡°Come, you definitely should use a dog-beating stick when beating a dog to make it totally unable to fight back!¡± Link stepped forward, took out a thick and heavy saber with a brilliant radiance, and put it in Luo Xinghe¡¯s hands! Luo Xinghe¡¯s body shook as he held the saber in his hands. [Meteor] Grade: Diamond Strength: 150 Intelligence: 100 Constitution: 120 Agility: 100 Additional skill 1: [Meteor] (Passive Skill): User¡¯s Strength attribute increases by 100%. There is also a 20% chance of triggering a breaking effect¡ªwhich can break the target¡¯s equipment or weapons! Additional skill 2: [Meteor Chop] (Active Skill): User activates [Meteor]¡¯s might, releasing meteor sword energy, causing damage that is 200% of user¡¯s Strength attribute! It was actually a Diamond-grade saber, so how could Luo Xinghe not be agitated? He was the [Silvermoon Sword Emperor] in the first ce, solely loving swords for his entire lifetime. Swords were just like a life partner to him! Upon touching [Meteor], Luo Xinghe sensed that even his soul had integrated with it. It was as if they had be connected partners! Luo Xinghe could even feel the dignified will to fight that [Meteor] brought to him, and he became determined to engage in a bloody battle to showcase its power! While watching Luo Xinghe, whose aura was gradually strengthening, Link wore a faint smile. This [Meteor] had been obtained by upgrading the recently acquired [Skeleton Battle de] using Supreme Blessing. However, this sword was not of much use to Link. Link already had a magical weapon¡ª[Red Sky]. It was even mightier than [Meteor]. Moreover, he did not like to use swords, so he had no use keeping it around. It just happened to be more suitable for Luo Xinghe. In any case, Luo Xinghe had already submitted to hismand. An improvement in Luo Xinghe¡¯s capabilities was also beneficial to Link. Link naturally wouldn¡¯t be miserly to his own people. ¡°Go, don¡¯t let a mad dog bark at our door!¡± Link spoke coolly, then returned to the recliner and started watching the show leisurely. ¡°Thank you, Lord! Xinghe certainly won¡¯t disappoint you!¡± Luo Xinghe inhaled deeply and slowly stood up from the ground. [Meteor]¡ªwhich he gripped tightly in his hand¡ªalso let out a vast power! For a time, it was like Luo Xinghe¡¯s entire aura had turned into an extremely sharp, crushingly heavy, and peerless divine sword that was about to slice open this entire universe! Chapter 45: Team Fight Breaks Out, Falling Into a Siege?

Chapter 45: Team Fight Breaks Out, Falling Into a Siege?

¡°Mad dog, I will take your lowly life today!¡± said Luo Xinghe, his tone utterly chilly. An icy glow glimmered in his pupils, his killing intent clear! His confidence had been recovered at this moment. Even if the level of this person before him far exceeded his by one whole stage, he was fearless! He was [Silvermoon Sword Emperor]. With a sword in hand, he could fight the universe! ¡°Utterlyughable! Even if a loser changes their weapon, they are ultimately still a loser! Today, none of you can escape. I want to dissolve all of you into flesh and blood, bing the nutrients for me to level up!¡± Blood Fiendughed hideously without care. His big, wide-open mouth was like an evil spirit from hell arriving in the mortal realm, bringing infinite trembles and fears to people! ¡°Young ones, kill!¡± Blood Fiend roared fiercely, sending out hismand. It instantly had everyone in Blood Fiend Gang rushing out in quick session like a surging blood tide. Their ferocity was to the sky, putting fear in people¡¯s hearts. These were all Blood Fiend Gang members who practiced heretical arts. They were like crazy, bloodthirsty demons as they swarmed out, far scarier than Undead creatures! ¡°We¡¯ll charge too! We cannot let Blood Fiend Gang snatch the treasure!¡± On the other side, Alloy Team One¡¯s leader also gave themand tounch an attack! Hundreds of alloy-armored people brazenly came forward. As they moved with heavy steps, the sound of alloy metal rang out, bringing an extremely shuddering might as ifbat machines had arrived and were about to destroy this city! For a time, Luo Xinghe, Xue Linglong, and the others were besieged! ¡°Link, what shall we do?¡± At the side, Yang Xuerou looked anxious and nervous. She was worried about the safety of Luo Xinghe andpany, afraid that they wouldn¡¯t be able to fend off so many people! ¡°Don¡¯t worry! Let¡¯s wait and see first!¡± Link¡¯s countenance was peaceful, even though Luo Xinghe and others were currently in an extremely dangerous situation! They were besieged by hundreds of people. All their enemies were either members of ck Dragon Gang or Blood Fiend Gang, and every one of them was a high-leveled, powerful Stage One existence. Regardless of how talented Luo Xinghe, Luo Xingyao, and the others were, they might not be able to cope. After all, wanting to fight 100:1 wasn¡¯t that simple of a feat! However, this was also a test for them! If they could rise above the rest, they may be able to go further in their future achievements. Moreover, the capabilities of Luo Xinghe andpany weren¡¯t weak! First, there was [Silvermoon Sword Emperor] Luo Xinghe and [Demon Sealing Arrow] Luo Xingyao. These siblings were both Stage One, Level 9, and held powerful equipment. Even an ordinary Stage Two expert wasn¡¯t their match! Next was Xue Linglong; she had an equally highbat ability. With the [Spear of the Frosty Moon]plementing her [Extreme Ice Combat Maiden] profession, Xue Linglong¡¯sbat ability was on par with the Luo Siblings¡¯! Besides, there was still a deadly Assassin hidden in the dark, Qiao Ruowei! As [Nightmare Rose], Qiao Ruowei¡¯sbat ability was simrly not to be underestimated. Every time she acted, she could easily harvest a person¡¯s life and retreat unscathed. After retreating, she would go into hiding and wait for the next opportunity tounch a lethal attack! This ced the battle in a deadlock. The hundreds of Alloy Team One members and Blood Fiend Gang followers actually weren¡¯t able to take down Luo Xinghe and the three others within a short period of time. Instead, tens of their people were killed, suffering heavy casualties! ¡°Luo Xinghe, take this blow!¡± Blood Fiend howled, swung his blood-red broadsword, and came hacking at Luo Xinghe. He came carrying the momentum of a tornado and the might of a sinking boulder! ¡°Ha!¡± Luo Xinghe shouted with a deep voice and countered with [Meteor]! ng! The sound of metallic objects meeting reverberated! The two were both thrown back. Blood Fiend took several steps back with a startled gaze. He could feel that Luo Xinghe¡¯s strength had actually been boosted multiple-fold, causing a sense of pressure to rise up in him! ¡°It¡¯s that sword! It must be a high-level sword, a good treasure!¡± Blood Fiend immediately discovered the reason behind Luo Xinghe¡¯s increase in strength, and greed emerged in his scarlet pupils. Luo Xinghe also retreated; he took tens of steps back before he barely came to a stop. After all, Blood Fiend was of a higher level than Luo Xinghe. His Strength attribute was also much greater than that of Luo Xinghe. Although Luo Xinghe had [Meteor]¡¯s support,pletely closing the gap between them remained impossible! However, Luo Xinghe was not discouraged. His will to fight was frightening instead! ¡°Mad dog, take this!¡± This time, Luo Xinghe took the initiative to attack. In his hands, a peerlessly brilliant star burst out from [Meteor]! Like a falling meteor, it suddenly smashed towards Blood Fiend! Boom! Another loud bang sounded. The two people¡¯s attacks converged, and the force shook the surroundings, causing houses to copse and the ground to be full of cracks. A hint of faith shed across Luo Xingyao¡¯s eyes as she watched Luo Xinghe, who was immersed in fighting hard. She did not interfere and help Luo Xinghe because she trusted her elder brother and Link. What Luo Xingyao did was remove the obstacles for Luo Xinghe, killing all the Blood Fiend members who wanted toe close. As each explosive arrow was shot out, Luo Xingyao sensed that she had fallen into a mysterious state. A force that was difficult toprehend emerged in her mind, but she was just an inch away from touching it! Once she touched it, a transformation was bound to happen! ¡°Not bad!¡± Link naturally took in this scene, and it made him nod in satisfaction. Luo Xingyao is certainly an Epic-grade [Demon Sealing Arrow]. Her talent is indeed outstanding since she grasped an advancement while inbat. In the future, Luo Xingyao will surely be the best member under my charge! ... On the other side, it was Xue Linglong and Qiao Ruowei that resisted Alloy Team One. Xue Linglong could do this with skill and ease at the beginning, able to fend off those alloy-armored people readily. However, the pressure on Xue Linglong multiplied ever since the alloy leader joined the fight. After all, the alloy leader was a Stage Two, Level 5 expert. With the Gold-grade alloy armor on his whole body, hisbat ability was no less than that of a Stage Three Undead! Even though Xue Linglong had [Spear of the Frosty Moon]¡¯s support, countering the alloy team leader was still slightly difficult! ¡°[Universe Cast]!¡± shouted Xue Linglong softly, and the [Spear of the Frosty Moon] in her hands abruptly attacked. Icy-blue energy flowed out and suddenly transformed into a cold, blue dragon, wanting to devour the alloy leader as it headed towards him! Boom! A loud bang sounded! The alloy leader flew out invertedly, but he had no injuries on him. Brilliant rays of light enveloped the dark-gold alloy armor, blocking all the attacks. ¡°Keke, it¡¯s futile! Your attacks have absolutely no way of prating my defense! Now, go to hell!¡± The alloy leaderughed coldly, then lifted his alloy arm. An extremely dangerous aura gathered around it, as if it were about to fire aser cannon bomb! Xue Linglong¡¯s countenance abruptly changed. She could already sense the aura of deathing close. ¡°Alright, it¡¯s time for the game to end!¡± Right then, Link¡¯s voice sounded. Things had already arrived at the oue he wanted. Thus, there was no need to continue wasting time. ¡°God Devourer, prepare to strike...¡± ¡°Ao ao!¡± Just as Link¡¯s voice sounded, and he prepared to order the God Devourer Ant to strike, the Star Moon in his arms began crying out, its pair of small eyes filled with eagerness to have a try. ¡°Litlte fellow, you want to perform for a bit, is it? Alright, we¡¯ll take a look at your capabilities!¡± Link nodded slightly. He understood Star Moon¡¯s intention and agreed to its request. Chapter 46: The Terror of Star Moon

Chapter 46: The Terror of Star Moon

¡°Ah~ooh!¡± Star Moon howled, its voice filled with joy. Its small, ck crystal-like eyes were filled with the itch to have a go. It also wanted to showcase its strength before its master. It didn¡¯t want people to think that it was very small and weak! It directly leaped up from Link¡¯s body and hurriedly joined the battlefield. Its small, ck figure was extremely fast and suddenly appeared in front of Xue Linglong. ¡°Star Moon!¡± ¡°Be careful! Quickly, move away!¡± Upon seeing Star Moon appear before her, Xue Linglong¡¯s expression suddenly changed. She did not want to see Star Moon hurt! The alloy leader¡¯s ability was no trivial matter. Even she herself wasn¡¯t his match, finding it difficult to withstand his offense! At present, how could the appearance of this little one turn the tides? After seeing Star Moon, the alloy leader also faltered slightly. However, he coldly began taunting soon after. ¡°What, you couldn¡¯t find anyone capable, so you sent a puppy out to tempt fate?¡± The alloy leader smiled scornfully, and power gathered inside the alloy energy cannon in his hands, filled with a destructive influence! ¡°Ah~ooh!¡± Star Moon was a little angry. It was fine if Yang Xuerou said it was like a puppy. She was Master Link¡¯s friend, after all. But presently, this armored man actually dared to despite it, so how could Star Moon not be enraged! It was the twin of the God of Divine Wrath, the symbol of destruction. Although its powers had been sealed, its dignity remained. How could it tolerate the ndering from a nobody? Star Moon snarled lowly and angrily, and the ck hair all over its body stood on end. It was evident that Star Moon was furious. But in the alloy leader¡¯s eyes, he merely thought that this puppy was throwing a tantrum! ¡°Poor puppy, being pushed out by your owner to seek doom. Let me send you on your way!¡± The alloy leader spoke chillingly while raising the alloy energy cannon in his hands. Then, he suddenly aimed it at Star Moon! Boom! A dazzling glow was seen as zing energy shot out from the alloy energy cannon. It carried a startling might as if it could destroy an entire building! The alloy energy cannon was a Gold-grade weapon forged by Doctor Ghost. Its might was no less than that of a missile¡ªdownright lethal! Even a Stage Two expert could only feel hatred while covered in blood and die under this might! The alloy leader wore a look of confidence¡ªcertain he could crush and turn everything before him into fine powder that would scatter through the universe! ¡°Star Moon, quickly dodge!¡± Xue Linglong¡¯s face was deathly pale. She, too, felt frightened. Such an attack was something even she could not resist! She did not want to see Star Moon covered in blood and dying. Roar! Just then, roars shook the sky! As if primordial creatures were snarling at the universe, the mighty roars shook souls, causing people to tremble and their souls to palpitate! When the alloy energy cannon bomb with a splendid radiance was about to touch Star Moon, a dark glow rose from Star Moon¡¯s body! The glow was extreme darkness, and not a hint of color could be seen. It was like the depths of the abyss, mysterious and unpredictable! The alloy energy cannon bomb had just invaded the darkness, and the darkness immediately swallowed it up. The alloy energy cannon bomb waspletely concealed; not a bit of radiance spilled out! Boom! A muffled bang sounded! It seemed like the alloy energy cannon bomb had exploded, but not the slightest glow was emitted. It had been totally destroyed by the darkness! ¡°What?¡± The alloy leader was shocked, and his pupils abruptly constricted. He saw the darkness subside, and Star Moon¡¯s figure emerged once more. However, it was unscathed; nothing looked unusual! ¡°Burp!¡± On top of that, Star Moon evennguidly stretched its body and let out a burp! At the same time, a notification sounded in Link¡¯s mind. [Ding! Congrattions on your summoned creature¡ªStar Moon¡ªsessfully leveling up to Stage One, Level 2!] Upon seeing this, Link¡¯s eyes brightened! [Devour] is Star Moon¡¯s talent skill. Star Moon can devour all energies and use them to improve itself! By the looks of it, this apocalyptic world is the most suitable ce for Star Moon to rise up! With such a skill, Star Moon will be able to devour energy and use it to strengthen itself as long as the energy doesn¡¯t exceed the limit Star Moon can bear. This method of leveling-up is virtually like eating and drinking¡ªextremely easy! ¡°Ah~ooh!¡± Star Moon yawned and casually shot a look at the alloy leader, seemingly saying that his attack was too weak! ¡°Damn it!¡± The alloy leader was livid. I was actually mocked by a puppy? Intolerable! ¡°Die!¡± The alloy leader was enraged. His two arms gleamed, and ming-red glows appeared, which turned into two energy cannons! ¡°All of you, kill!¡± The alloy leader roared, ordering his subordinates tounch an attack together! For a time, energy cannons were put up. Terrifying energy assaults flew out at an incline, and the radiance painted the sky, even making the scorching sun appear dull inparison! Countless energy cannon bombs with destructive force shot toward Star Moon insanely, sworn on bombing Star Moon into pieces! Roar! Star Moon was also enraged. Were they treating the tiger as an ill cat because it didn¡¯t roar? Within its small body, a great terror seemed to have been roused! Star Moon suddenly opened its mouth, and darkness spurted into the surroundings. It turned into a monstrous big mouth,pletely swallowing all of those energy cannon bombs! [Ding! Congrattions on your summoned creature¡ªStar Moon¡ªsessfully leveling up to Stage One, Level 3!] [Ding! Congrattions on your summoned creature¡ªStar Moon¡ªsessfully leveling up to Stage One, Level 4!] [Ding! Congrattions on your summoned creature¡ªStar Moon¡ªsessfully leveling up to Stage One, Level 5!] ... [Ding! Congrattions on your summoned creature¡ªStar Moon¡ªsessfully leveling up to Stage One, Level 9!] Arge number of energy cannon bombs had been shot. Their might was enough to turn this entire area into ruins, yet all of them had been devoured by Star Moon, bing the nutrients to boost its capabilities. The whole Alloy Team One had ultimatelyunched all of their energy cannon bombs but was unable to rattle Star Moon in the slightest! This caused unprecedented fear to emerge in their eyes! ¡°This... how is this possible?¡± The alloy leader¡¯s body trembled. His gaze was wholly terrified as if he had met a great horror! ¡°Monster, this is a monster!¡± Within Alloy Team One, someone¡ªwho could finally no longer bear the fear in their heart¡ªshrieked, seeming to be scared out of their wits! ¡°Alright, it¡¯s time to send them on their way!¡± Link spoke up coolly. These people had lost their utility value; there was no need to continue wasting time! ¡°Aoooh!¡± Star Moon nodded in response. Its pair of pitch-ck pupils instantly turned cold as if it were a god scorning mortals and about to destroy the mortals who defied it! Before Star Moon, an incredibly concentrated dark force continuously gathered. The radiance was dark and dense, concealing all rays of light! The dark force was berserk as it condensed into a huge, ck ball. Then, it suddenly thundered towards Alloy Team One! [Dark Explosion]! Star Moon¡¯s active skill made the surrounding dark elements instantly sink into fury. The skill¡¯s might was far more terrifying than those alloy energy cannon bombs! As the darkness settled, it shrouded the entire Alloy Team One. Everything perished and copsed in silence until they turned into ashes; not a single person could escape. In a split second, the alloy army¡ªoriginally made up of hundreds of people¡ªwaspletely annihted with this one strike, and no traces were left behind. A mere strike had killed hundreds of people, including a Stage Two expert wearing Gold-grade equipment! How appalling was this scene? Chapter 47: Seven Stars Broken Moon!

Chapter 47: Seven Stars Broken Moon!

Who would have thought that this ordinary little guy would possess such terrifying strength? ¡°Little Star Moon is too powerful!¡± Yang Xuerou cried out, her eyes glistening. She didn¡¯t expect the extremely docile puppy, which she had held in her arms, turned out to be such a terrifying existence. It wasparable to a wild beast! Everyone was shocked. It seemed one could not judge a person by appearance, just as Star Moon¡¯s strength could not be measured with a bushel! Only Link appeared calm. He didn¡¯t seem surprised. Is this a joke? Does one really think that the God of Divine Wrath¡¯s twin brother will be just a cute pet? Although Star Moon really is very cute, its strength should not be underestimated! ¡°Ao~wooo!¡± Star Moon raised its head, looking proud. Although the God of Divine Wrath had sealed it, it was not to be despised by anyone! Soon, Star Moon¡¯s gaze shifted to the Blood Fiend Gang. Upon seeing Star Moon approach them, the Blood Fiend Gang members were so afraid, their bodies trembled, and their faces turned pale. They were scared out of their wits! This little thing was too terrifying. There were so many powerful alloy armored people, yet they gotpletely wiped out without even having the chance to resist! How was one supposed to y? Even the menacing Blood Fiend had palpitations. He looked at Star Moon with fear. If Star Moon made a move, they would probably not be its match. Their only chance would be to escape! Blood Fiend was annoyed. He had miscalcted this time. He didn¡¯t expect that such a great terror would be hiding here! In order to deal with this monster, their only hope would be the Blood Fiend Gang¡¯s leader! Blood Fiend was prepared to retreat! However, at this moment, Luo Xinghe¡¯s voice was heard! ¡°Lord, I¡¯m here! Let me take care of this person!¡± Luo Xinghe sounded hoarse. His clothes were tattered, torn, and stained with blood. His breathing was also shallow. In the previous battle, the strength disparity between Luo Xinghe and Blood Fiend was really too big. Luo Xinghe was at a disadvantage despite having [Meteor]¡¯s blessing! Even so, Luo Xinghe¡¯s eyes were full of determination. He was tenacious and unyielding! ¡°Lord, please leave it to us!¡± Luo Xingyao¡¯s tone was hopeful. Luo Xinghe would take care of the grudges between the Luo siblings and the Blood Fiend himself! Link looked at them when he heard that and said, ¡°Star Moon,e back!¡± Since Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyao had made their choice, Link would naturally not interfere! These were people that Link had approved of! ¡°Awu!¡± Star Moon reluctantly returned to Link when it heard themand and quietened down. Blood Fiend felt the immerse pressure disappear when he saw Star Moon leave. A hideous expression appeared on his ferocious face once again! ¡°Hiak hiak! Goodd, you have guts indeed! In that case, I¡¯ll grant you an easy death!¡± Blood Fiend grinned hideously. He swung his bloody broadsword¡ªtainted with the pungent smell of blood¡ªand charged toward Luo Xinghe with the momentum of a tornado. This was Blood Fiend¡¯s Blood Demon Sword. It was a Gold-grade broadsword stained with the blood of thousands, turning it into a vicious, demonic sword! As soon as the Blood Demon Sword appeared, its ferocious aura was as if grieving souls were crying, gnawing at one¡¯s soul! ¡°Kill!¡± Without any fear, Luo Xinghe roared as he waved [Meteor] to greet it, and the two collided again! For a moment, bloodthirsty auras burst forth, and bright, shiny lights enveloped the entire scene! Logically speaking, Luo Xinghe was not the match of the Stage Two, Level 8 Blood Fiend with his Stage One, Level 9 strength at all. However, he forced this battle into a stalemate with [Meteor] and his perseverance. Both parties were on par; neither could easily emerge as the winner! This was sufficient to showcase Luo Xinghe¡¯s ability. He was the [Silvermoon Sword Emperor] indeed! On the other side, the rest of the Blood Fiend Gang finally reacted. Tens of bloodthirsty shadows in blood-red robes surged toward Luo Xingyao. They saw Luo Xingyao¡¯s importance. If they captured her, they might be able to leave safely. After all, the fear that the little thing next to Link made them feel could not be dissipated easily! However, was [Demon Sealing Arrow] so easy to deal with? Even when facing the besiegement of tens of people, Luo Xingyao¡¯s expression remained calm. Her re was extremely cold and icy, like sub-zero ice. It was like she wanted to freeze the souls of people! At the same time, a glow shone from within her body. Shining brightly like the stars in the sky, it swirled and intertwined around Luo Xingyao, forming the Big Dipper! Chi! At this moment, a ray shed past the Big Dipper, fell toward the bright moon, and exploded! Bits of radiance swirled and was absorbed into Luo Xingyao¡¯s body. Her eyes shone brilliantly! At this moment, Luo Xingyao was finally enlightened! Upon seeing Luo Xingyao¡¯s sudden change of state, Link murmured, ¡°Seven Stars Broken Moon... As expected of [Demon Sealing Arrow], herprehension is indeed powerful!¡± Link shook his head. How could he not know about Luo Xingyao¡¯s transformation? In his previous life, Luo Xingyao was the person Link was most familiar with! As one of the Top 100 Human Alliance League¡¯s top ten masters, Luo Xingyao mastered many powerful archery techniques, most of which sheprehended because of her talent. Among her many archery techniques, this [Seven Stars Broken Moon] was Luo Xingyao¡¯s most famous technique! Link was just a little surprised that Luo Xingyao hadprehended [Seven Stars Broken Moon] so quickly! It seemed that as some things changed, Luo Xingyao¡¯s life trajectory changed as well! At this moment, Luo Xingyao made a move. While staring at the blood-red robed men approaching her, she did not step back at all. Instead, she held the [Bow of Elf] high! Chi! The [Bow of Elf] glowed, and a faint green radiance shrouded it, blending in with the light emitting from Luo Xingyao¡¯s body! For a moment, the Big Dipper appeared in front of her, every star bursting out with brilliant light, like falling stars! ¡°Seven Stars Broken Moon!¡± Luo Xingyao cried out delicately and pulled the bow, forming a crescent. The stars turned into arrows and gathered tens of thousands of light rays! Biu biu biu! With a soft sound, tens of thousands of star arrows shot out and flew everywhere, bombarding the blood-red robed men! Pu chi! Pu chi! Pu chi! ... The sound of blood and flesh sttering could be heard. One could only see the sky full of stars turning into arrows and prating the blood-red robed men¡¯s bodies, creating huge holes. Boom! Boom! Boom! ... Bodies fell onto the ground everywhere, and life auras dissipated. The blood-red robed men¡¯s eyes were wide open, making it obvious that they didn¡¯t die in peace! This [Seven Stars Broken Moon] was extremely lethal! Even with Stage One, Level 9 strength, she had killed tens of highly-skilled people just like that! It was sure to shock the world! Luo Xingyao took a deep breath, her face pale. It was too taxing on her to use [Seven Stars Broken Moon] forcefully, but she felt gratified. She was finally able to take revenge! Luo Xingyao¡¯s eyes shifted andnded on her brother, Luo Xinghe! At this moment, the situation finally changed! Chapter 48: Revenge!

Chapter 48: Revenge!

On the other side, the confrontation between Luo Xinghe and Blood Fiend became more intense! ng! Swords crossed! [Meteor] collided with the Blood Demon Sword, and sparks flew! The dim light reflected onto their faces, vividly illuminating their expressions. Blood Fiend¡¯s face was cruel, as usual. His pupils turned crimson, blood-thirst and cruelty were evident on his hideous face. Panting heavily, Blood Fiend exposed his bloodstained teeth and abruptly said, ¡°Luo Xinghe, stop your useless attempts at resisting. If you¡¯re useless, you¡¯re useless! Not only are you going to die today, but even your sister is going to die. Both of you are going to die by my Blood Demon Sword!¡± Blood Fiend grinned and swung the Blood Demon Sword, forcing Luo Xinghe back. At the same time, the blood-red sword aura crisscrossed and attacked Luo Xinghe in a frenzy. It made innumerable cuts on his body, from which blood dripped incessantly! Even so, Luo Xinghe¡¯s expression remained cold. However, the depths of his pupils filled with determination and rage! ¡°Even if I have to die today, I will kill you!¡± Luo Xinghe gritted his teeth. The immense pressure had already caused him severe injuries, but he still didn¡¯t give up. He picked [Meteor] up and swung it. However, the strain on Luo Xinghe was eventually too much. His strides became weak and unsteady, causing ws to appear in his offense! Blood Fiend¡¯s eyes lit up, and he immediately found an opportunity to charge towards Luo Xinghe. He wanted to use this chance to wreak bloody carnage on Luo Xinghe! ¡°Die!¡± The Blood Demon Sword traversed forward. Blood-red sword aura shot out from it, swift and precise, and headed straight towards Luo Xinghe¡¯s heart. If it struck Luo Xinghe, he would be beheaded. There would be no hope for survival! Of course, Blood Fiend was on-guard. Even though Luo Xinghe was in a weakened state, Blood Fiend didn¡¯t approach him recklessly in order to prevent any idents. Since Blood Fiend was able to survive in these apocalyptic days, would he be so brainless? Even if there was a trap, he would be able to retreat! Pu chi! With the sound of flesh being pierced, Blood Fiend¡¯s eyes lit up with joy. At the critical moment, even though Luo Xinghe managed to react and forcibly twisted his body to avoid the fatal blow, the Blood Demon Sword still pierced his abdomen, almost cutting him in half. When Blood Fiend saw this, the wariness in his heart finally disappeared. He stepped forward angrily, intending to get rid of the annoying and insignificant ant once and for all. At this moment, Luo Xinghe¡¯s eyes shed, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly. ¡°It¡¯s over!¡± Luo Xinghe spoke indifferently. He held [Meteor] up and happened to block the Blood Demon Sword as it was being withdrawn, effectively confining it! Blood Fiend¡¯s expression changed suddenly. He felt that something was wrong but was unable to extricate himself. At this moment, Luo Xinghe was clenching [Meteor] with both hands. An impressive amount of momentum burst from his body. He was like a peerless king of swords out to kill all the enemies he had in the world! Zing! [Meteor] resonated with Luo Xinghe¡¯s momentum. The saber shone with dazzling starlight, bing more and more powerful! ¡°[Meteor sh]!¡± Luo Xinghe shouted. His voice rumbled like low thunder, majestic and solemn! [Meteor] shone brightly. Awe-inspiring power shot straight up into the sky! Enchanting rays of light followed [Meteor]¡¯s movements. In the end, they all turned into starlit sword aura, traversing the earth! ¡°Kill!¡± Luo Xinghe let out a roar. In his hands, [Meteor] moved, shing away at Blood Fiend! Rumble! For a moment, the meteor sword energy suffused the earth. Wherever it passed, huge ravines were ripped into the earth as if a divine weapon was tearing into the ground. Blood Fiend¡¯s heart trembled. He forced the Blood Demon Sword up, wanting to counter the attack with the demonic sword! Crack! However, the sound of gold and iron breaking resounded in the Blood Fiend¡¯s heart, arousing desperation in him! ¡°No!¡± Blood Fiend screamed in horror. The moment the Blood Demon Sword collided with [Meteor], it shattered and became scrap metal! This was a result of [Meteor]¡¯s passive skill. It had a 20% chance of destroying an enemy¡¯s offensive weapon! Blood Fiend, who had lost the Blood Demon Sword, lost the ability to contend with Luo Xinghe. Boom! The saber¡¯s aura cut Blood Fiend, and his flesh exploded into a mass of minced meat. A Stage Two, Level 8 master had fallen without even his corpse intact! When Luo Xinghe saw that Blood Fiend had been destroyed, he finally couldn¡¯t hold on anymore. He fell to one knee, staying upright only with [Meteor]¡¯s support. His breathing was extremely shallow, and his face was pale. He was bleeding all over as if all the life was about to drain from him! However, there was no regret in his pupils. They were still full of perseverance. I did it. I sessfully took revenge and beheaded my enemy. ¡°Lord, Xinghe didn¡¯t bring shame unto you!¡± Right after Luo Xinghe finished speaking, his eyes rolled back, and he fell to the ground! ¡°This brat!¡± Link shook his head. He had had no dealings with Luo Xinghe in his previous life and didn¡¯t know much about the [Silvermoon Sword Emperor]. However, after today¡¯s events, Link knew that this person was no less talented than Luo Xingyao. Luo Xinghe did not rely on qualifications but on his unyielding beliefs. He was somewhat simr to Link. ¡°You can¡¯t die before I allow you to! Sister Xuerou, save him!¡± Link had spoken. He knew that if the [Silvermoon Sword Emperor] continued to grow, he would be someone to contend with. Link didn¡¯t want to watch such a powerful subordinate die just like that. He had to put him to good use! ¡°En!¡± Yang Xuerou nodded. She had spent a few days with Luo Xinghe, Luo Xingyao, and the others. She already regarded them as friends and partners. She, too, couldn¡¯t bear to watch Luo Xinghe die in front of her! Yang Xuerou took out [Saint Cross] and chanted softly. Holy light suddenly descended upon Luo Xinghe¡¯s body and covered it. The holy light had iparable holy power that held immense healing power! The holy light fell upon Luo Xinghe, healing his injuries at a speed visible to the naked eye. His lifeforce was also getting stronger! In just a short while, Luo Xinghe had almost fully recovered. ¡°As expected of a [Holy Priest], what strong healing power!¡± Link nodded with satisfaction. An ordinary [Priest] might not have been able to save Luo Xinghe¡ªwho was seriously injured and on the verge of death. However, Yang Xuerou was different. She was a legendary [Holy Priest] and possessed a Diamond-grade healing weapon, Saint Cross. She had pulled Luo Xinghe back from the gates of death by force. ¡°Thank you, Lord!¡± After Luo Xinghe woke up, he respectfully bowed to Link. If Link hadn¡¯t given him [Meteor], he might have died in Blood Fiend¡¯s hands a long time ago. How would he have had the chance for revenge? Although Luo Xingyao didn¡¯t speak as she stood to one side, the gratitude evident in her eyes was enough. ¡°It¡¯s not necessary. Your fight is far from over!¡± Link waved his hand, then his gaze caught on something to the side! There was a figure there, transforming into a ray of light and swiftly escaping! Chapter 49: Son of Light!

Chapter 49: Son of Light!

Hundreds of meters away, a figure was hurriedly fleeing! It was a man wearing a Chinese robe with flowy blonde hair and exuding a terrifying aura. It was obvious that he was a Stage Two master. However, there was fear on his face, and his expression was slightly flustered. ¡°Emma, it¡¯s too scary. When did so many terrifying monsters appear in Dragon City?¡± eximed the man. He had been hiding and watching the earlier battles without intervening. He originally wanted to reap the benefits without lifting a finger, but he didn¡¯t expect a group of nobodies to wipe out the ck Dragon Gang and the Blood Fiend Gang. Not one of them was able to escape. This was too frightening! With the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s and the Blood Fiend Gang¡¯s battle formations, they would have been able to eliminate even a Stage Three Necromancer easily. Who would have thought that they would fall to these people¡¯s hands? ¡°Thankfully, I ran fast enough. Otherwise, it would have been too embarrassing for me, the Son of Light, to fall here.¡± The man rejoiced. He was relieved that he managed to escape in time! ¡°Is that so?¡± However, at this moment, an indifferent voice sounded, sending chills down the Son of Light¡¯s back and making his hair stand! Link suddenly appeared in front of him, looking at him mockingly. ¡°You... When did youe?¡± The Son of Light was shocked. He didn¡¯t expect Link to appear in front of him. ¡°Why, want to run away after watching the show?¡± Link nced at him with a calm expression. The Son of Light couldn¡¯t help but shiver. Link was not involved in the battle earlier. However, he could tell that this person was the most terrifying from Luo Xinghe¡¯s and the others¡¯ attitudes towards him! The Son of Light was now facing Link directly. He could feel an iparable pressure overturning like the vast sea, within sight but beyond reach! ¡°This brother, I¡¯m just passing by. I don¡¯t have any ill intentions!¡± said the Son of Light mockingly. In his heart, he knew that he would not win if he were to fight Link. This person is too mysterious. Terrifyingly mysterious. ¡°Is that so?¡± Link spoke again, indifferent as usual, but his tone was cold. ¡°Er... I didn¡¯t mean to offend you. What must I do so you can let me go!?¡± The Son of Light cowered. Although he was from the Temple of Light and was the sessor, he didn¡¯t think Link would falter because of his status. ¡°Do you think you can just stand around and watch? Naturally, you have to pay for it!¡± Link raised his brow; he had recognized this person. It is the Son of Light from the Temple of Light, Ou Chen! In Link¡¯s memories of his previous life, the Temple of Light was a powerful force that inherited the God of Light¡¯s will. It was a great faction of the human alliance. This Ou Chen, the God of Light¡¯s incarnation, from the Temple of Light was naturally famous. The Son of Light abhorred evil and was open and aboveboard his whole life. He dedicated his life to safeguarding the human alliance¡¯s justice. In Doomsday, he was one of a kind. However, there was something wrong with this person. He liked to recruit people into the Temple of Light. Link was recruited by Ou Chen in his previous life but rejected him. Ou Chen then bugged him until after Link had a battle with him. After the battle, he finally knew how determined Link was and retreated without bothering him any further. For this reason, Link was not too hostile toward the Son of Light. Instead, Link got interested. He didn¡¯t expect to meet such masters from the next few generations in the early days of Doomsday. First, he met [Demon Sealing Arrow] Luo Xingyao, then [Son of Light] Ou Chen! It seemed like this world was getting more and more interesting. Upon hearing that, Ou Chen¡¯s eyes lit up, and he said, ¡°This brother, in that case, I would like to invite you to join the Temple of Light. Once you join the Temple of Light, we will be like a family!¡± It was obvious what Ou Chen was trying to do. He had begun recruiting people again! ¡°What do you think?¡± Link did not respond but looked at him insipidly. A trace of amusement appeared on his face. ¡°Er....¡± Ou Chen paused. He knew it was impossible. The Temple of Light was not well-known yet. Not many people knew of it. Moreover, considering Link¡¯s disy of strength, Link was likely some powerful person¡¯s sessor. Why would he join the Temple of Light so easily? For a moment, Ou Chen was in a dilemma and at a loss. In the end, Ou Chen said with a bitter face, ¡°Alright, I¡¯ve offended you this time. I¡¯ll give this to you aspensation!¡± Ou Chen had no choice. Forced by the situation, he could only hang his head. Ou Chen took out an item, ced it into Link¡¯s hands, then ran in the opposite direction. As he ran, he shouted, ¡°Brother, if you¡¯re free,e take a seat at the Temple of Light. I wee you anytime!¡± Ou Chen did not hurry. It was as if he knew that Link would not go after him. Indeed, Link had no such intention. He was not a bloodthirsty person and didn¡¯t kill everyone he saw. If he did, what difference would there be between him and Undead creatures? Link¡¯s gaze shifted to the item in his hands. It was a treasure from the Son of Light, Ou Chen¡ªa fruit containing powerful light! [Fruit of Light] Introduction: A fruit that grows by absorbing the power of light. It is able to change one¡¯s might to the power of light! This fruit was a powerful object. Even in the Temple of Light, only the highest-ranking members could enjoy it. In Doomsday, a person¡¯s strength was not limited to physical attacks and spells! There were also attribute attacks! Attribute attacks came with special powers and could increase the person¡¯s strength, making their attacks more terrifying. Just like those Undead creatures¡ªthey had the death attribute. Hence, their attacks were full of death aura and breath, which could devour life energy! There were many with attributes around Link¡ªXue Linglong with the ice attribute, Yuna and Yang Xuerou with the holy attribute, as well as Star Moon with the dark attribute. It was precisely because of their attributes that they were able to be particrly prominent and powerful. For this reason, this [Fruit of Light] was equivalent to a magic elixir. It could increase one¡¯s chance of staying alive in this world full of raging Undead creatures! If an ordinary person saw the [Fruit of Light], they might risk everything to get it in their hands. However, Link was not interested in it. He was a Summoner, a [Great Void Taboo Master] at that. Attribute strength was nothing to him! What determined his strength was stats! Link stored the [Fruit of Light] away without taking a second look. It was free, after all. There was no reason not to keep it. Even if he didn¡¯t have a use for it, he could give it to others. Link could definitely use someone with the power of light because his next target was the City of the Undead! Chapter 50: Building a Base!

Chapter 50: Building a Base!

Not far away, Ou Chen, the Son of Light, slowly stopped. A strange expression came over his face. ¡°This person is really interesting. I sense a trace of the God of Light on him! It seems that this person has a predestined rtionship with my Temple of Light. It would be a shame not to get him into the Temple of Light!¡± ¡°Fortunately, I still have an ace up my sleeve. Although unwilling, I¡¯ll give him the Fruit of Light!¡± When Ou Chen spoke of the Fruit of Light, he grimaced. It had cost him a lot of effort and expense to get this Fruit of Light from the Temple of Light¡¯s elders! If he used it himself, his strength would surely increase by leaps and bounds. He would even be able to break through Stage Two and advance to Stage Three! In the end, he had given it to Link just like that! However, Ou Chen didn¡¯t regret it. On the contrary, he was excited. ¡°As long as he eats that Fruit of Light and his attributes be that of the light, he will naturally lean toward the Temple of Light. By then, even if he wants to escape, he won¡¯t be able to! Hehe, I¡¯m going back to tell the Lord that I have recruited an extremely strong fighter!¡± Ou Chen smiled lightly, seemingly confident that Link would definitely use the Fruit of Light! After all, it would be the norm for a person to use an item that enhanced their abilities immediately if they got it, wouldn¡¯t it? Would they be holding on to it indefinitely? What¡¯s more, it was a holy item from the Temple of Light. The Fruit of Light was an item people would kill to get! There was no reason to reject it at all, okay? However, Ou Chen didn¡¯t know that the Fruit of Light, hailed as a magic elixir by the world, did not interest Link at all. ¡°What kind of treasure caused the previous phenomenon? Also, this kid killed the members of the ck Dragon Gang and the Blood Fiend Gang. I don¡¯t think those two gangs will let him off easily!¡± Ou Chen¡¯s tone hardened. The doubt in his heart had not been resolved! ¡°It looks like we must act sooner!¡± Ou Chen¡¯s eyes shone with a golden light, and shes of power glinted within them. At this moment, Ou Chen¡¯s previous frivolous demeanor turned solemn! After all, he was the Son of Light from the Temple of Light. In the future, he would be at the top. Someone who could achieve that was definitely not an ordinary person! Ou Chen left. He left behind a brilliant sh of light and disappeared. However, Ou Chen didn¡¯t know that the opportunity that should have belonged to their Temple of Light had already fallen into Link¡¯s hands¡ªthe token to open the City of the Undead! In his previous life, Link didn¡¯te here. However, some things that were originally fixed would remain! Like the appearance of Ou Chen, for example! If Link didn¡¯t appear, Ou Chen would eventually meet the Necromancer! At the same time, the [Token of Sin] that would open the City of the Undead should have fallen into Ou Chen¡¯s hands! This would also be an important reason why the Temple of Light became so famous in the future! But with the appearance of Link, some things that were originally meant to be had now changed! Some opportunities that should have belonged to others had also fallen into Link¡¯s hands! If Ou Chen knew that he had missed a great opportunity, he would be vomiting blood from anger! ... On the other side, Link had returned to Mingshi Hospital. ¡°Lord, what happened?¡± When they saw Link leaving, Luo Xinghe and his party were all at a loss. They had no idea what was happening. They didn¡¯t notice Ou Chen¡¯s presence. His concealment skills were so strong that most people had no idea where to look for him. Only Link, with his strong mental ability, discovered some clues. Thus, he found out where Ou Chen was. ¡°Nothing, I met an interesting person!¡± Link shook his head lightly, not exining further. Everyone understood. Then, Luo Xingyao spoke. ¡°Lord, what did you mean earlier when you said that the battle was not over yet?¡± For Luo Xingyao, fighting was not only for survival but also for sharpening oneself and improving one¡¯s strength. Luo Xingyao, who had witnessed genocide, had an extremely intense desire for power in her! Only the strong were not afraid of anything! That is a good ce! The corners of Link¡¯s mouth rose slightly. In his mind, he had already decided that he would take the City of the Undead! Although the City of the Undead was a ce of many trials and held many risks, it was also full of opportunities and blessings that could quickly increase people¡¯s strength! With this precious ce, they no longer needed to search high and low for high-leveled Undead creatures; they could find them all in one ce! Link had even decided that this would be his first step toward bing the strongest being in this world! ¡°Xinghe, Xingyao, go back to the school. Bring everyone over! Linglong, Ruowei, two of you lead a group of people to the mall we were at earlier and transport all the resources over. We will build our base here!¡± Link spoke solemnly, his eyes shing. If one wanted to survive in this apocalypse, they would have to establish a base because the world would face a catastrophic trial in theter days of the end. The unrelenting wave of Undead creatures and Zergs would be enough to destroy everything. The only way to avoid being overwhelmed by monsters was to establish a base. In Link¡¯s memories of his previous life, most of the entire Blue Star was upied by monsters such as the Undead creatures and the Zerg army in theter days of the end of the world. All the monsters of the world hade out to wreak havoc and create chaos. Here, humans were the weakest. However, mankind did not be extinct in the apocalypse¡¯ster days. They survived. The reason was that the Human Alliance had five major cities. These were all bases created by extremely powerful people. They were protected by heaven and earth and surrounded by order, making it impossible for ordinary monsters to invade them. However, it was not so easy to build a base. It required not only arge amount of building material but also an experienced architect. One also required a [City Building Token]! Only with a [City Building Token] could the base be acknowledged by heaven and earth. That way, order would descend upon them, and the city could then be built! This was the reason why Link wanted to build a base here. He knew that a [City Building Token] was hidden in the City of the Undead! The former Temple of Light relied on the City of the Undead¡¯s rise to build the City of Light and create the human race¡¯s Holy Land. Since he now had such an opportunity, he would naturally not let it slip. When everyone heard Link¡¯s words, they were all shocked and excited! They knew what Link¡¯s words meant. It was something that simply did not exist. They were in Doomsday, and disasters came one after another. How difficult would it be to build a base in these troubled times? However, the person who brought it up was Link! It gave everyone confidence because this man did indeed have the ability to make it happen. He was strong enough to suppress all enemies! With this thought, an unprecedented glimmer of hope appeared in everyone¡¯s eyes! After all, there was no longer a safe or untainted ce in this world. Where could human beings settle down? Most people just lived each day as it came. Nobody knew if they would live to see the sun rise the next day. This was a really terrifying disaster. It affected the entire Blue Star and drove humans to despair. But Link¡¯s words had now awakened the will to fight in their hearts! Chapter 51: The Surge of the Undercurrent!

Chapter 51: The Surge of the Undercurrent!

Building a base here... Didn¡¯t that mean this area would be a paradise for peace and stability? From then on, those disced and those who lost their families and homes would no longer have to be refugees after they entered this ce. It was also a chance for human civilization¡¯s future! ¡°Yes!¡± Everyone answered solemnly with pride in their hearts because they knew that what they were doing now was very meaningful! It was very possible that they would be able to establish their own home and rebuild the peaceful, quiet paradise they once had! The group of people left, full of enthusiasm as they dreamt of creating their own world! Determined, Link looked into the distance as he watched the people leave! Since he had made such a decision, he definitely had a n! He knew that humans were weak on their own during this period. Whether it was the uing monster siege or the Zerg army, either was enough to crush everything! One had to build their own base and have their own force to survive in such a chaotic world! In his previous life, Link clearly remembered how tragic the monster siege was. It was a bloody world. Undead creatures raged, and endless tragic howls came from people. Even the sky was dyed red by blood at that time! There was a bloodbath of countless masters. The old, the weak, and the women died tragically. Corpses littered every ce, and rivers of blood formed. The scene was absolutely shocking! A lively city was reduced to a kingdom of Undead, and for the dead and spirits. Nobody survived. In the past, someone had established a base in this Dragon City, but they were unable to escape in the end. All of them perished. The entire Dragon City fell into the hands of the Undead monsters! Link was forced to take damage and flee the Dragon City in his previous life! But it was different this time. Link didn¡¯t want to repeat the same mistakes! He wanted change. He wanted to recreate humanity¡¯s kingdom in this city! Right now, he had this power because he had a supreme Taboo-grade profession, [Great Void Taboo Master]! He had a Holy Angel, God Devourer Ant, Chimera, [Demon Sealing Arrow], and many other powerful people under him! He would be able to create an unprecedented world once he increased the strength of all these people! Now, he had found a way to improve their strength as soon as possible¡ªthe City of the Undead! When holding the ink-ck token, Link could feel his consciousness bing stronger and stronger. There seemed to be a voice calling him, guiding him to a certain ce! ¡°I want to see what exactly is in this City of the Undead.¡± Link¡¯s gaze focused. He looked forward to finding out the secrets hidden in the City of the Undead, which was hailed as a blessed ce for leveling. Link stepped forward without hesitation, heading toward the back of Mingshi Hospital! Behind the hospital was... Mingshi Cemetery! Behind him, Holy Angel Yuna and the God Devourer Ant followed closely. Yang Xuerou held Star Moon and followed them as well. Both ces were only a few hundred meters apart! With Link¡¯s speed, he soon arrived! A piece of wastnd appeared before Link. The grass was withered, and the ground was ck with yellow soil. It was absolutely deste. This was originally an affiliated cemetery of Mingshi Hospital and was considered high-end. But with the arrival of the apocalypse, it became deste. The Undead had obviously ravaged the ce! The air was filled with death aura. Yin energy and ghostly aura lingered. It appeared dark, quiet, and extremely freaky. At this moment, the [Token of Sin] in Link¡¯s hand began to change! A ray of light suddenly rose, piercing the sky and lighting up the night sky and the cemetery. Rumble! Strange noises resembling the sounds of an earthquake could be heard. It was as if something was going to break out of the ground! Boom! Boom! Boom! The ground cracked, and gullies formed. Dust and smoke filled the air! The world moved as if it were about to be split in two, and an infinitely deep ck abyss appeared. However, an extremely powerful divine presence was in this dark abyss; it was like a great terror was about to be born. Waves of power rose into the sky and sank deep into the world! For a time, a strange phenomenon surrounded the entire Dragon City for 100 years, attracting everyone¡¯s attention! ck Dragon Gang! An exceptionally angry expression appeared on the face of Doctor Ghost, who sat in a wheelchair! ¡°What did you say?¡± Doctor Ghost roared and mmed the table hard, breaking the alloy table into pieces. ¡°Alloy Team One was annihted? Not one person survived?¡± Doctor Ghost snorted as he questioned the person in front of him, who was already shaking with fear. ¡°Y-y-yes... From the message, the life force of hundreds of people suddenly disappeared at the same time. Not one person survived!¡± That man¡¯s voice trembled; he was horrified. He had never seen Doctor Ghost so furious! Upon hearing this, Doctor Ghost became silent. His eyes flickered, and he looked out the window. At this moment, the phenomenon outside the window had attracted Doctor Ghost¡¯s attention. A strange look came over his eyes, which were like digital disys! ¡°Send my orders down. Have Hidden Dragon Team One, Fire Phoenix Team One, and ck Tiger Team One move out. We must upy this area!¡± Doctor Ghost spoke solemnly but couldn¡¯t conceal the excitement in his tone. It seemed he had discovered something shocking! ¡°Ah... yes!¡± The man was dazed for a while after hearing Doctor Ghost speak. He didn¡¯t understand why. One should know that other than the gang leader, who was mysterious and didn¡¯t appear, and Doctor Ghost¡ªwho had a Myth-grade crafting skill¡ªthe next strongest would be the four major teams! Alloy, Hidden Dragon, Fire Phoenix, ck Tiger! Alloy Team One was already dispatched to make things difficult for Link and had all died. None of the remaining teams were weak. They wereposed of elite members! Hidden Dragon Team One represented the most powerful assassination team. The members wereposed of assassins best at hiding. The team leader was a powerful Stage Three top assassin¡ªHidden Dragon! Fire Phoenix Team One represented the most powerful magicians. The members wereposed of Mages with high mental strength. The team leader was a Stage Three master¡ªFire Phoenix! ck Tiger Team One represented the strongest warriors. The members wereposed of the strongest Fighters. The leader was also a Stage Three master¡ªck Tiger! These three teams were the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s strongest forces, and they had all been dispatched! What happened exactly? With Doctor Ghost¡¯s orders, the ck Dragon Gang suddenly erupted. Figures sprang out from ck Dragon Research Institute and dashed towards Mingshi Cemetery. ... On the other side! A blood-colored building stood. It looked as if it had been stained by blood, scarlet-red blood. The scene was absolutely shocking! This was the Blood Fiend Gang¡¯s headquarters! In the Blood Fiend Gang¡¯s lobby was a pool filled with red blood, broken limbs, internal organs, and even newborn babies! ... Chapter 52: Opening, City of the Undead

Chapter 52: Opening, City of the Undead

It was like a blood-red purgatory here. Resentment lingered in the air as blood and breath ravaged, making one¡¯s hair stand on end and feel terrified. The surroundings of this blood pool were filled with hundreds of figures draped in blood robes. Every one of them emitted a ruthless, bloodthirsty aura. They stared at the blood pool with looks of respect, their pupils showing insanity and reverence as if they¡¯d beenpletely brainwashed and were reduced to ves of fresh blood! Right at the front was a burly man, whose aura was terrifying. He was shrouded in a bloody aura and appeared extremely hideous, like a scarlet ogre. The brawny man currently spoke, his voice hoarse and jarring, simr to ferocious ghosts¡¯ howling and snarling! ¡°Blood Fiend actually died? The people who dare to kill my Blood Fiend Gang must pay the price of blood!¡± With a nasty grin, the brawny man drank a mouthful of blood that had seeped out from the blood pool. He then stood up, and his vigor exploded and spread in all directions! He emanated an utterly frightening aura. It had already reached the peak of Stage Three, only one step away from entering Stage Four! ¡°Hiak hiak! Young ones, follow me out to hunt! The living creatures in this world will ultimately be the blood food of me, the Bloodseeker!¡± At themand, several hundreds of people in blood robes moved simultaneously, following behind the Bloodseeker. They then turned into a streak of bloody light and disappeared! The ring radiance lit up the dark night as if light had suddenly appeared! In the entire Mingshi Cemetery, the divine might was imposing, the momentum magnificent! The ground shook with loud rumbles. The crack was like the vast opening of an abyss, about to devour this whole world! In that bottomless crack, a massive article emerged! It was shrouded in mist, illusory and unreal like a mirage. It was shocking and majestic. ¡°What... is that?¡± eximed Yang Xuerou. Her eyes stared into the distance ahead, and she saw an unbelievably spectacr sight. Not too far ahead, an ancient building rose up toweringly, suspended above the crack. The mist was ceaseless, causing the area to be full of mystery. The building was lofty like a mountain. A huge sphere, brilliantly glowing, floated at its peak as if the stars in the sky stood there. At the building¡¯s front was a thick and heavy ancient door. Obsolete and mottled, the aura of time passed through it. It was covered in antique runes as if it had existed since before eternity and was handed down through time. The building was grand, and its aura startling, bringing an ineffable presence to one. If studied carefully, the ancient building seemed more like a tomb. The old door was the tombstone, and the building resembled the vault, burying the various powerhouses of the ancient epochs. ¡°This... is the City of the Undead!¡± Link said softly, his tone solemn! He finally saw the ultimate promisednd from his previous life that countless people went insane for and yearned to enter¡ªCity of the Undead! ¡°City of the Undead? Is there such a ce in Dragon City?¡± Yang Xuerou was confused; she had never heard about Dragon City having such an ancient building. ¡°This is a trial ground. It is also a ce where cmity and opportunity coexists!¡± exined Link smilingly. The City of the Undead wasn¡¯t a ce anyone could enter; one had to meet the specially set conditions. Chi! Just then, shimmering light rays swirled around, and a phantom appeared before the ancient door. It was the phantom of ady dressed in a dark-green pleated dress. She had delicate features, beautiful long hair like a waterfall, and big, bright eyes filled with liveliness. ¡°Wee to the City of the Undead. Hello, the people here call me Saiya!¡± said the phantom, her voice clear. Link went forward and said coolly, ¡°Hello, Saiya. I want to open the City of the Undead!¡± He had already guessed that this Saiya was probably an existence simr to a machine soul. This was because every trial ground was handed down from ancient times. They had been preserved by the powerful forces that existed before eternity. Naturally, beings that controlled the trial grounds existed! However, such beings did not interfere in the trial grounds¡¯ matters. They only fulfilled their duties¡ªopening the trial grounds! ¡°An exclusive key is required to open the City of the Undead!¡± Saiyaughed softly, seemingly happy as if she had not seen the outside world for a long time. Upon hearing that, Link immediately brought out the [Token of Sin] with his hand. A glow promptly lit up the instant Link took out the ck and gold token. The token then turned into a ray of light and flew into Saiya¡¯s hands. Saiya held the token, and the smile on her face became even brighter. ¡°Congrattions, noble warrior! You are the first adventurer to open the City of the Undead; thus, we will present you with 5,000 trial points!¡± ¡°Trial points? What are they?¡± Upon hearing her words, Link faltered for a moment. He had never entered the City of the Undead before. Hence, he naturally did not know about the rules here. ¡°Trial points are a necessity when passing through the City of the Undead.¡± Saiya wore a small smile. She activated the token in her hand and allowed its radiance to spread throughout the world. An aura resembling the barren ancient times shot out, lingering in the horizon as if primeval existences that had slept for millions of years were awaking. It brought a terrifying feeling, stunning souls! The brilliant divine glow soared into the sky, intertwining and filling up the skies above the City of the Undead. The chain of order linked up with the universe as if this virtual sky was about to undergo an upheaval. At this moment, the old, huge doors slowly opened. Like ancient gods were singing, the doors let out a long hum. Chi! As a ray of light shed, everyone abruptly vanished. ... Link only felt his body shake, and the scene before his eyes had suddenly changed. Before him, a secluded town appeared. ¡°Wee, adventurers, this is Undead Town!¡± At this time, Saiya¡¯s form quietly emerged. Though still dressed in a dark-green pleated dress, she appeared exceptionally ethereal, like an elf. Saiya giggled and began introducing this ce to the party. It turned out that this was a space inside the City of the Undead. The City of the Undead was a trial ground. There were many monsters, dangers, and difficulties inside, but regions of absolute safety¡ªalso known as safe zones¡ªalso existed within. This Undead Town was a safe zone. People heading towards the City of the Undead could rest and reorganize here. There were priests for restoring one¡¯s state, and also cksmiths to repair equipment. It had to be said that the town had everything under the sun! While listening to Saiya¡¯s introduction, Yang Xuerou eximed, ¡°This is virtually an industrial chain!¡± She did not expect such a space to have such a perfect industrial chain. When one prepared to journey towards the City of the Undead to gain levels, one first had to rest, reorganize, return to optimal state, and repair equipment before entering the dungeon. However, the only way to do all of this in Undead Town was through the NPC shops. This was because there was absolutely no way of releasing skills here. Magic waspletely prohibited! Even if one came with their own priest, it was useless. They could do no healing at all. This was totally a monopoly! If one wanted to do some spending in Undead Town, one had to pay a certain amount of trial points. How were trial points obtained? Very simple. They could be obtained by exchanging equipment, treasures, or herbs. A certain amount of trial points would be given in exchange ording to the items¡¯ value. Then, by using a fixed amount of trial points, one could receive the corresponding blessings or purchase equipment. Even entering the dungeon required one to pay a fixed amount of trial points! This was literally... too deceiving! The corners of Link¡¯s mouth twitched as he inwardly thought, Could it be that the person who created the City of the Undead is a money lover and wants to take the chance to rake it in? Chapter 53: Trial Divine Tablets!

Chapter 53: Trial Divine Tablets!

Within Undead Town! Link was scanning around, searching for information on Undead Town. When he came to the front of the cksmith store, an image appeared in his mind. [cksmith Store] Item 1: Spirit Longsword Grade: Gold Price: 10,000 trial points Item 2: me Shadow Sword Grade: Diamond Price: 50,000 trial points Item 3: Scar of Blood Grade: Epic Price: 100,000 trial points While looking at the equipment information that appeared from the cksmith store, Link was shocked. This City of the Undead is indeed a trial ground. They even sell Epic-grade equipment. Only, these prices are very fraudulent. Link suddenly realized that he could not afford to buy anything with the 5,000 trial points he had just received... Link even saw a piece of Myth-grade equipment. It was a katana, but its price was as high as one million trial points. The feeling it gave one was like getting rich overnight before suddenly falling all the way to the bottom. The feeling of only looking at it and being unable to afford it was too painful! ¡°Saiya, how many dungeons in the City of the Undead can be entered presently?¡± Link asked as he left the cksmith store. He did not continue browsing... ¡°Currently, there is only one dungeon in the City of the Undead avable. The other dungeons have yet to be opened,¡± responded Saiya. She then disyed the dungeon selection interface before Link. Link looked over and saw that only ¡®Sin Realm¡¯ was opened. The other regions were all covered by fog. ¡°How do we open these dungeons?¡± Link¡¯s brow arched. He remembered that the City of the Undead¡ªcontrolled by the Temple of Light¡ªhad more than one dungeon in his previous life. ¡°Opening the other dungeons will require the corresponding tokens to unlock them!¡± Saiya exined. There were a total of three tokens for the City of the Undead, and each token corresponded to a different dungeon. The one that Link owned was the Token of Sin. Hence, it could only open the Sin Realm. Upon hearing this, Link understood. The former Temple of Light inspired awe throughout the world. Its influence was extremely powerful. Thus, finding the remaining two tokens would not be a difficult task for them. ¡°What is this?¡± Right then, Yang Xuerou asked a question. She noticed that three ancient stone tablets sat at the end of the town! They were three dark-gold colored stone tablets. They were thick, heavy, and filled with a primordial air, seeming to be passed down from ancient times. All sorts of lines were carved on the stone tablets. Vigorous and firm, the words resembled horned dragons but seemed more like names! ¡°These are the divine trial tablets; they are records established by the top powerhouses who cleared the dungeons. One can also choose to carve their name on the stone tablets to be handed down through the ages!¡± exined Saiya. The City of the Undead was unlike other trial grounds. In other trial grounds, people partied up to enter and kill monsters. However, the City of the Undead was a solo dungeon. Only one person could enter. But among theter generations, this was where most people visited. Countless people came inrge numbers, unsparingly depleting all their wealth, and yearned to enter! This was because the dungeon was not only a wondend for gaining levels, but it also allowed one to harden oneself, reach the peak, and be well known throughout the world. This was due to the City of the Undead¡¯s divine trial tablets! Carved on them were the names of all the universe¡¯s top experts. There was a legend that so long as one could leave their name on the divine trial tablets, they were sure to be existences that could dominate a region. ¡°What?! This tablet has been handed down for 10,000 years?¡± Yang Xuerou eximed, her gaze filled with disbelief. Humans had extremely short lifespans. A hundred years basically meant the end of a human¡¯s lifespan, so how would they know how long 10,000 years were? However, humanity¡¯s constitution was also transformed by a strange energy when the apocalyptic world arrived, allowing them to adapt to the apocalyptic world and survive. In the present world, humans could gain unprecedented strength by advancing in levels. Even their lifespans had been extended. This was something that everyone could sense. But 10,000 years... was still too long! ¡°This was left behind by the previous batch of humans. As it¡¯s said, life and death is a never-ending cycle. An era will ultimately end but samsara[1] never stops.¡± Saiya let out a long sigh, expressing deep mncholy. She had lived ever since the City of the Undead was established and had witnessed countless eras rise and fall long ago. ¡°You are saying that, other than us, there is also the previous batch of humans?¡± The shock in Yang Xuerou¡¯s eyes became even stronger as if she had encountered a startling big secret! Only Link by the side had sunk into silence. He had been long aware of all this because he was a reincarnator himself. However, Link was unlike the others¡ªhe had been reborn ten years in the past. In the future ages, Link also learned that this apocalypse was not a natural disaster but a game. A game controlled by the superior ones... ¡°Of course, there are too many connections in this, and I cannot freely reveal them...¡± Saiya did not exin too much. This involved secrets, making her shut her mouth. Link understood, so he did not continue probing. Instead, he shifted his gaze to the first stone tablet. The other two stone tablets were shrouded by dense mist, making it impossible to peep at them. However, Link wasn¡¯t bothered by this. Those two stone tablets were highly likely the records left behind by the powerhouses who cleared the two other dungeons. As he had not found the other tokens, he had no need to waste time on them. Link looked over and saw that several names were ranked on the first tablet. [1]: Name: Tallis Profession: Order Master Level: Stage Three, Level 10 Record: Sin Realm Tier Six! [2]: Name: Cyber Profession: Elemental Master Level: Stage Three, Level 10 Record: Sin Realm Tier Five! [3]: Name: Hei Qi Profession: God of Killing Level: Stage Three, Level 10 Record: Sin Realm Tier Five! ... ... ... Link had never heard of the first two people¡¯s names before. However, it was evident that they absolutely were hidden profession holders because of their profession names. People capable of activating hidden professions were undoubtedly existences with powerful talents. Only, the divine trial tablet did not state the grade of their profession! However, Link could be sure that the first and second ce¡¯s professions were not below Myth-grade. This was because the forces these people controlled were already peak forces! The power of order... the power of elements... Any one of these forces was enough to ce one at the peak! However, what attracted Link¡¯s attention the most was the person who ced third! Hei Qi! God of Killing, Hei Qi! This name made Link associate it with a certain person. That person appeared in historical records¡ªGod of War, Bai Qi[2], who killed 400,000 people! Hei Qi, Bai Qi[3]**... Is there any rtion between these two people? [1] In Buddhism, the cycle of birth, existing and death [2] A military general of the Qin state in the Warring States of China [3] In Chinese, the characters for ¡®hei¡¯ means ck, and ¡®bai¡¯ means white Chapter 54: Trial, Tier Seven!

Chapter 54: Trial, Tier Seven!

Regarding Bai Qi, Link had a deep impression! God of War, Lord Wu¡¯an! A manparable to the gods! In Bai Qi¡¯s time, just his name was enough to terrify his enemies upon hearing it. With his own strength, he killed 400,000 people. How shocking and intimidating was that? Presently, on this divine trial tablet was actually a person whose name was simr to Bai Qi¡¯s, and his profession was [God of Killing]. This was bound to bring many thoughts to one¡¯s mind. Could it be that way back in Lord Wu¡¯an¡¯s era, this apocalypse had already arrived? Is the God of Killing, Hei Qi, also the God of War, Bai Qi? Link felt as if a cloud of dense fog was shrouding this world, and he was within an inch of being able to brush it away! ¡°Saiya, what are the trial rules of this Sin Realm?¡± Link¡¯s gaze focused; he had developed an interest in the Sin Realm. So many powerhouses with different talents have once stepped on these grounds and created new records. This is enough to prove that this ce is not simple. What exactly was attracting this batch of people? ¡°The Sin Realm is the City of the Undead¡¯s elementary level trial ground. It is divided into seven tiers. Every tier has a corresponding tester whose level matches that of the adventurer. However, their grades are all different; the higher the tier, the higher the tester¡¯s grade! ¡°Beginning from trial tier one, the tester¡¯s grade will be Silver. By this reasoning, Gold for tier two... and tier six will be Myth-grade! If someone enters tier seven, the tester they face will be a Super God-grade existence! Only, as of now, nobody has cleared it yet!¡± spoke Saiya. All these years, she had witnessed numerous rulers rise up, but there was never anyone who could clear tier seven! This was because that was a tier that was alreadyparable to the gods! With a Super God-grade, so long as one was able to grow, they would certainly be an existence that could look down on all the heroes and dominate the universe! ¡°If you would like to enter the Sin Realm, a threshold simrly exists¡ªonly adventurers at Stage Four and below may enter. If high-level adventurers wish to participate in the trial, they can only head towards the two other dungeons!¡± ¡°Adventurers may select their level and enter after paying a fixed amount of trial points. After sessfully defeating the opponent, you can gain abundant EXP rewards, even acquire treasures and inherit cultivation methods. All these depend on luck. It is a program configured by the original owner!¡± Saiya rted all of the Sin Realm¡¯s trial rules in one breath. Link¡¯s eyes brightened. It turns out that the Sin Realm¡¯s rewards are so plentiful. It is no wonder it made peoplee in continuous crowds. Putting everything aside, just that massive amount of EXP was enough to tempt one. In the outside world, one needed to search for powerful monsters if they wanted to level. However, this also coexisted with risks. After all, those monsters weren¡¯t fools that would stand unmoving and wait to be killed. If one wanted to boost their capabilities, they had to bear the risks of being counter killed. However, there was absolutely no need to worry about this in the City of the Undead. Even if one was no match for the dungeon and died inside the trial dungeons, it was alright. Their true self would not die because of this; they would only enter a certain state of feebleness instead. However, if one were to seed, the EXP gained was enough to boost one¡¯s capabilities significantly and even improve one¡¯sbat skills, killing many birds with one stone! There were even treasures and equipment rewards¡ªit was an objective that people yearned for even more! But what Link cared the most for was the records disyed on the divine trial tablet! The rankings on the divine trial tablet also signified exactly how terrifying the person¡¯s talent and capabilities were! Take Tallis¡ªwho ranked first¡ªfor example. He had cleared Sin Realm¡¯s sixth tier! It also implied that he had actually defeated a same-level Myth-grade existence. This was enough to prove how frightening he was! The [Order Master] was indeed exceptional! ¡°How do I select a level!¡± Link asked respectfully. After learning about the Sin Realm¡¯s trial rules, he was in high spirits instead. He wanted to see just how powerful the exceedingly talented tester was! ¡°Adventurer, please look!¡± Upon hearing him, Saiya waved her delicate hand, and a strange energy surged out. A selection interface immediately appeared before Link. There were a total of seven levels. Every level symbolized the Sin Realm¡¯s tiers. ¡°You may freely choose one level, but you have to pay a fixed amount of trial points!¡± Saiya whispered. As Link was the City of the Undead¡¯s present owner, he naturally enjoyed special treatment. ¡°I choose... tier seven!¡± Link said coolly, his tone filled with resolution. He would definitely rank right at the top in this lifetime, so how would he be willing to be beneath others? Moreover, Link totally had the capabilities! He was the [Great Void Taboo Master], a Taboo-grade existence! Even whenpared to the professions on the divine trial tablet¡ª¡ª[Order Master], [Elemental Master], [God of Killing], and so on¡ªhe wasn¡¯t inferior at all. If others could achieve the same thing, why couldn¡¯t he? In this lifetime, he was fated to break the shackles! When it came to fighting against an opponent within the same stage, he had never feared anyone! ¡°Alright, you have to pay 5,000 trial points to head to the Sin Realm¡¯s seventh tier!¡± Saiya nodded. She did not care about the adventurers¡¯ dungeon choice; she only worked ording to the fixed program. Link¡¯s brow arched upon hearing that. Fortunately, he had been gifted 5,000 trial points earlier. Otherwise, it would be really awkward if he couldn¡¯t even enter this dungeon. ¡°No problem, of course!¡± Link spoke. After paying 5,000 trial points, Link¡¯s figure suddenly vanished. When he appeared, he found himself in an extremely dim space. The ce was dark and gloomy, like the dark abyss where not a hint of light could be seen. The darkness was obscure. Somehow, a strange force seemed to be around, wanting to keep one lost in the darkness forever and sunken in this ce! In the air, an exceedingly dismal and evil aura suffused. Just the slightest contact with it was enough to make one¡¯s hair stand on end! Upon seeing this scene, Link frowned slightly. He could sense that an anomaly existed in this ce! Right then, Link spoke up. ¡°Yuna!¡± Holy light instantly lit up behind him. Holy Angel Yuna, who emitted a holy white light all over, suddenly appeared. The radiance spilled to the surroundings as if it was going to dispel the darkness and bring light back to the area! Although this was an individual dungeon where only one person could enter, the restrictions absolutely didn¡¯t exist to Link. This was because Yuna was his summoned creature; she could naturally enter with him. After all, if a [Summoner] could not summon their summoned creatures, what was there to y!? It wasn¡¯t only Yuna; even God Devourer Ant and Star Moon appeared together. Three figures emerged behind Link and seemed to dispel that ghastly, evil aura in the air. Kra kra kra! Kra kra kra! Kra kra kra! Right then, strange sounds went off. It sounded like skeletons that were broken, then forcefully propped up¡ªthey let out utterly ear-piercing sounds. In front of Link, the darkness changed. Snow-white bones then emerged from the darkness,pletely joining together to form a human-like figure. This was a swordsman. He was covered in bone armor from head to toe, but all the bones in his body were warped and torn out of his body, looking extremely hideous. He even held an exquisite bone sword, and the mist of death lingered ceaselessly. The instant this figure appeared, an extremely dense mist of death immediately surged all around as if the gates of the death realm had been opened! Chapter 55: Deathbone Swordsman, Super-God Grade Existence!

Chapter 55: Deathbone Swordsman, Super-God Grade Existence!

The faint green power of death surged like a gushing tide, sweeping across the entire space. It turned the darkness a ckish-green, facing off with the light from afar. This scene could be described as extremely shocking! Two interwoven opposing forces lingered in this space and mutually counteracted, causing the might to be increasingly explosive. However, the extent of the power of death¡¯s tempestuousness was difficult to imagine. It flowed out ceaselessly, covering the sky as if it wanted to dissolve all the powers of the holy light that Yuna released. ¡°Hiak hiak! It¡¯s been 10,000 years; has someone finally entered these grounds?¡± An extremely hoarse voice sounded; it was like withered sticks rubbing together, ear-piercing and forlorn. Right then, a notification also resounded in Link¡¯s mind. [Deathbone Swordsman] Name: Geno Profession: Deathbone Swordsman (Super God-grade) Level: Stage Two, Level 5 (Set ording to adventurer¡¯s level!) Introduction: Geno was originally the Star Empire¡¯s most honorable swordsman. One day he acquired a strange bone armor and received the God of Death¡¯s terrifying curse, causing him to fall into darkness and be reduced to the God of Death¡¯s ve that only knows bloodlust and ughter! While staring at the weirdly-shaped Deathbone Swordsman with hideous features before him, a hint of grimness shed across Link¡¯s eyes. This Deathbone Swordsman¡¯s aura was too frightening, even more dreadful than the Necromancer that Link had encountered. The death aura all around him was in an upsurge as if even the Sea of Death was in turbulence! This is indeed a Super God-grade tester. It is definitely formidable! ¡°It¡¯s... the scent of fresh blood!¡± Geno let out a howl-like voice. His pair of eyes that were like dead ashes carried a charming force,nding fixedly on Link. It seemed like he wanted to devour Link¡¯s flesh and blood! At the same time, the mist of death behind Geno began to run riot. It was like a tempestuous storm, rough, turbulent, and seeking to overturn this space! ¡°Holy Light Purification!¡± Sensing the spreading mist of death, Yuna was forced to act. She cried out delicately and leaped up. The four wings behind her spread out, and holy light illuminated the world as if the zing sun had risen! ¡°Hmph, detestable aura of light! All of you, die!¡± This sight seemed to have infuriated this terrifying existence, making the Deathbone Swordsman release a forlorn and bitter roar! Geno acted; he did not move, but his boney hand had already stretched out and abruptly mmed towards Yuna! For a time, the mist of death fluctuated, condensing into a faint green palm of death in the vacant space. It came with a sweeping force, about to crush everything! ¡°Yuna, Holy Light Blessing!¡± Link ordered coldly. He simrly sensed how frightening Geno¡¯s attack was. It felt as though the entire zenith had sunk down with it¡ªunstoppable! Upon hearing Link¡¯s order, a golden light flickered in Yuna¡¯s pupils. Her holy wings pped, allowing holy light to fall and form a gold barrier! Boom! A muffled bang sounded! The palm of death collided with the holy light barrier, causing a loud rattle! The faint green mist of death intertwined with the golden holy light, giving off a squealing, burning-like sound, and the two powers were mutually blending! Crack! A clear sound went off. The power of death seemed to be too much for that golden barrier¡ªit was about to break! Upon seeing this, Link¡¯s gaze turned cold, and his aura became increasingly chilly. ¡°God Devourer, go!¡± Link gave the order. He had noticed Yuna¡¯s exhaustion. Given her strength, it was difficult to rival such a dense mist of death! ¡°Zhi zhi!¡± The God Devourer Ant received the order and instantly rushed out. Its entire being turned into a bluish-gold radiance, moving like lightning; it was extremely swift. In the twinkling of an eye, the God Devourer Ant rushed to Geno¡¯s side andnded a strike on his armor covered with bones! Boom! The sound was deafening, simr to thunder exploding! One should know that God Devourer Ant was known for its strength. Its strength was terrifying. Under [Heavenly Power]¡¯s stimtion, its attacks even dealt ten-fold damage that of its Strength attribute! Given God Devourer Ant¡¯s current capabilities, even a Stage Three creature¡¯s body would rupture and turn into a lump of emulsified meat when struck by this attack! Yet, the oue was barely satisfactory. The bone armor around Geno¡¯s body burst forth with a faint green glow. It also made God Devourer Ant¡¯s attack seem like a pebble dropping into the sea or sinking into wends¡ªit did not cause any substantial damage to Geno. Boom! God Devourer Ant was sent flying. Its attack merely left a mark on Geno¡¯s armor. ¡°Very well, all of you have sessfully enraged me!¡± It seemed that receiving some slight damage caused Geno to be even more demented. His grayish-ck pupils also turned blood-red at this instant, sad and piercing like bloody suns! ¡°Go to hell!¡± Geno said chillingly. He had already swung the bone sword in his hand. The bone sword made of unknown creatures¡¯ bones was filled with a ferocious and savage aura! ¡°Death Crumble!¡± The sparkling snow-white bone sword traversed forward, also making the entire dark space quake with it. The bone sword was extremely sharp, containing the suffering of dead souls. It led to an infinite amount of mist of death, disying a massive bulk of sword energy as it hacked forward! Wherever it passed, light was annihted. The void trembled as if it was about to break apart! ¡°Master, watch out!¡± Upon seeing this, Yuna was greatly shocked. She had already sensed the terror of this attack¡ªit seemed like it was about to tear the world into half! Chi! ¡°Holy Light Beam!¡± In a critical situation, Yuna could not care for that much. Golden light scattered from the wings behind her. Holy light abruptly burst out, turned into a beam of gold light, andpletely enveloped Link! This was Yuna¡¯s newly activated skill¡ªit allowed her to grant an ally, or herself, invincibility for two seconds! However, [Holy Light Beam] could only protect Link; it left Yuna and God Devourer Ant in danger! ¡°Yuna, God Devourer,e back!¡± At this moment, Link yelled and directly recalled them. They were Link¡¯s summoned creatures, so he could freely summon them. Naturally, he was also able to recall them freely. As for Star Moon, Link did not allow it to participate at all. Its capabilities were stillcking, so it was unable to pose a threat to this Deathbone Swordsman! Boom! A loud bang sounded, and the space shook as dust rose all around! This space, seemingly because of Geno¡¯s strike, became chaotic. Geno¡¯s might was too frightening; itpletely exceeded Stage Two and was enough to crush Stage Four creatures into minced meat! The area between heaven and earth had long be thousands of ditches and millions of gullies. Under the intrusion of the death sword energy, an intact area no longer existed! ¡°Keke, before death, nobody can escape!¡± Geno chuckled coldly, his deathly gray pupils showing disdain and contempt. To him, this human¡ªwho had the audacity to offend him¡ªmust have been crushed into fine powder already! ¡°Is that so?¡± But right then, an utterly icy voice sounded. When the dust settled, Link¡¯s figure emerged once more. His long robe was flowing, but there wasn¡¯t a hint of untidiness. He had not been hurt in the slightest! Chapter 56: Fight, Taboo VS Super-God!

Chapter 56: Fight, Taboo VS Super-God!

Gullies crisscrossed the dim space! Devastation was everywhere. Thousands of ditches had formed, and gravel scattered in all directions as if everything wouldpletely copse under this strike! Geno¡¯s strength was too terrifying. He was a Super God-grade existence. Even though he was only a Stage Two being, he could produce unimaginable might! However, all of this had absolutely no effect on Link! This was because he was immune to all damage under Holy Light Beam¡¯s blessing! ¡°Hm?¡± Geno was baffled. A hint of surprise and bewilderment appeared in his grayish-ck eyes as if he found it odd that Link could resist this strike of his. ¡°The Sin Realm¡¯s seventh tier is indeed not simple! If it were someone else, they might have retreated in defeat long ago!¡± Link¡¯s voice sounded, his tone indifferent. This Geno was truly a Super God-grade existence; his capabilities were indeed terrifying! The strongest expert Link met in his previous life merely had an awakened Myth-grade profession. However, that was enough to allow one to reach the peak and be the top being on Blue Star! Super God-grade was even above Myth grade; the disparity between them was inestimable! It could be imagined that if Geno¡¯s strength was a little higher, his explosive might would beparable to one that could destroy the world! This was also why nobody had cleared the Sin Realm¡¯s seventh tier in over 10,000 years! However, Link wasn¡¯t fearful in the slightest! This was because he was the [Great Void Taboo Master], a Taboo-grade existence! Taboo VS Super God, why would he fear such a matchup? ¡°The game has just begun!¡± Link¡¯s gaze turned cold, his voice icy, like pr ice, chilly and biting! ng! With the nging of swords ringing, the divine sword [Red Sky] abruptly appeared! Scarlet red sword energy charged towards the sky. The chilling sword might was vast, causing the whole space to sink into the sea of sword energy. Imposing sword intent lingered around Link, making him seem like a peerless sword immortal showing his disdain! ¡°Interesting!¡± Geno grinned. Seemingly influenced by this sword intent, his body exploded with an extremely violent sword intent of death! ¡°Kill!¡± Geno struck chillingly. The Undead Bone Sword turned into a streak of blinding light and abruptly went thrusting towards Link! ng! Metals met, and sparks flew everywhere! [Red Sky] and the Undead Bone Sword shed with one another, setting off an extremely fierce force! ¡°You have too little strength!¡± Geno mocked. He was a top swordsman to begin with, so his swordsmanship was too profound to be understood! After falling into death, Geno evolved into a Deathbone Swordsman. The Super God-grade profession made his sword intent of death like a huge settling mountain¡ªits strength was immense and unstoppable! The two parties¡¯ attacks converged. Link was actually forced back by a few steps, falling into a disadvantageous position! ¡°Don¡¯t celebrate too early!¡± Link¡¯s countenance was peaceful; he wasn¡¯t known for his strength in the first ce! One had to know, Link¡¯s strongest attribute was his Intelligence! As the [Great Void Taboo Master], why would he need to fight recklessly with another? ¡°God Devourer!¡± Link called out coldly. Behind him, a bluish-gold figure instantly rushed out and suddenly sted towards Geno! This was the God Devourer Ant¡¯s ultimate ability. With irresistible force and sweeping momentum, it violentlyshed out at Geno, making him retreat. ¡°Yuna!¡± Link spoke up again. Holy Angel Yuna appeared once more. Brilliant holy light descended swiftly like a meteor shower,pletely enveloping Geno! Boom! Boom! Boom! Explosions sounded, and light shed everywhere¡ªthe power was magnificent! ¡°Detestable!¡± Geno snarled, extremely indignant. This series of attacks had actually caused him to be injured! First, it was God Devourer Ant¡¯s attack. Although Geno¡¯s Undead Bone Armor blocked that heavy force, the impact still shook him, causing his energy and blood to be in upheaval. Then, it was the descent of Holy Light. The holy powers with strong restraining powers on the mist of death had forcefully turned Geno¡¯s bone armor a stirring pitch ck. ¡°Star Moon!¡± However, Link¡¯s attacks had yet to stop. As his voice sounded, a small figure appeared once more! [Breath of Darkness]! [Dark Explosion]! Once Star Moon appeared, it let out a long howl. The dark powers within it suddenly burst out! A dark glow spilled out and surged. It actually condensed and formed a huge ck dragon in the void, which abruptly charged towards Geno. The dragon was formed of extremely pure dark energy. Instantly, Geno¡¯s aura swiftly abated, and his darkness resistance was reduced. He was even inflicted with a fear effect! Then, the dark elements suddenly exploded and mmed down on Geno! Boom! The noise reverberated, shaking heaven and earth! The terrifying dark powers directly exploded like a missile. The might¡¯s magnificence was unparalleled as it directly blew open a massive ditch in the ground in front, sending dust everywhere and gravel to stter in all directions! Even though Geno was a Super God-grade Deathbone Swordsman, after sustaining this series of blistering attacks, he absolutely could not withstand the explosion and was suddenly thrown into the deep ditch! ¡°Uh uh uh... ah!¡± Geno let out a biting roar that was utterly ear-piercing! He was in an extremely miserable state. The Undead Bone Armor covering him had already broken into pieces, revealing his body with a hideous skeleton. Geno was entirely covered in blood, and his breathing disorderly¡ªhe was clearly severely injured! ¡°Damn it! I¡¯m going to kill you!¡± Geno suddenly cried into the air, his rage hitting the skies! The surrounding mist of death instantly became berserk. It lingered around Geno, causing his aura to be increasingly frightening! The present Geno was like the arriving God of Death. The mist of death that made one tremble filled the entire space. Geno¡¯s grayish-ck pupils had even be a dull white; they were like dead ashes,cking vitality. ¡°Go to hell! Demon Energy!¡± Geno cried out ferociously as he suddenly stabbed the Undead Bone Sword in his hand into the ground, allowing the infinite mist of death to gather and enter the bone sword! For a time, the Undead Bone Sword became even scarier. Faint green mist of death swirled upwards around it, rendering it a sword of death that could easily harvest lives. Moreover, the bone sword¡¯s aura also became even more terrifying as time passed by, about to reach the extent where it would be impossible to resist! Geno was clearly releasing his most formidable ability! Upon seeing this scene, Link¡¯s countenance hardened; he did not continue waiting. ¡°God Devourer!¡± Link shouted, and his body began moving first. His feet activated [Moon Chase], and he quickly went charging towards Geno. Link¡¯s mind had long connected with God Devourer at the side; thus, it naturally knew his ns! Roar! A roar full of deterrence tore out from God Devourer Ant¡¯s mouth! [Sky Shattering Roar]! For a time, the primordial air between heaven and earth became turbulent as if an ancient era¡¯s peerless ruler had released a spirited snarl that shook the universe! Geno¡¯s body abruptly faltered. Even he could not withstand this deterring influence and was forcefully stunned for three seconds! This bit of time was enough for Link to reach him! In the twinkling of an eye, Link came to Geno¡¯s front. In front of his chest, radiance erupted with a dazzling glow! This was the Holy Spirit Ne. As the Holy Spirit of Light¡¯s exclusive ne, it was still extremely powerful even though it was slightly worn! The Holy Spirit Ne gave Link the greatest power enhancement. Hence, he nned to use it to kill the Deathbone Swordsman! Chapter 57: Holy Sword of Light, Clear the Seventh Level

Chapter 57: Holy Sword of Light, Clear the Seventh Level

White light appeared, looking extremely powerful! The light on the Holy Spirit Ne shed and instantly enveloped Link, making him look extremely majestic. At the same time, a white light shed in Link¡¯s eyes. His expression was insipid as if he were a god that controlled the lives of all the world¡¯s creatures! At this instant, pure, holy light radiated from Link¡¯s body, gathering and winding around [Red Sky]. It made the sword be even more majestic! Link had activated one of Holy Spirit Ne¡¯s active skills¡ª[Heavenly Blessing of the Holy Spirit]! The wearer of the Holy Spirit Ne could buff themself or friendly units with the Heavenly Blessing of the Holy Spirit. Blessed units would then deal 500% additional light-type damage to Undead units, and their light-type spells¡¯ power was enhanced by 50%. The skill had a 60-second cooldown duration. Instantly, the endless power of light appeared and blessed Link, causing him to be a god of light. He then gave off an immensely powerful aura! ¡°You...¡± Geno awakened from [Sky Shattering Roar]¡¯s effects, but his eyes were filled with terror upon seeing this unimaginable scene! The power of light was Undead creatures¡¯ absolute nemesis. Just sensing this extremely terrifying power of light was enough to make Geno¡¯s heart tremble. ¡°Ah!¡± Horrified, Geno tried to resist and break free of this predicament! However, Link moved at this moment! Link lightly nced at Geno. In his hand, [Red Sky] spun into the air. The sword was light and agile, spinning in the air for half a circle, and evoked a radiant white light into appearing! At the same time, Link softly chanted, causing this white light to be even more intense! ¡°Holy Sword of the Light!¡± Link spoke coldly, and the vast light power moved along with [Red Sky], condensing into a sword made of light energywhich was as long as ten feet¡ªin midair! The giant holy sword was full of holy power. It was as if it came to punish all evil and darkness and to let light reappear in the world! Once the Holy Sword of the Light appeared, the darkness in the air receded like tides. The energy of death started dissipating, unable to resist the power of light at all! This was true for Geno as well. Upon seeing the Holy Sword of the Light, his whole body trembled violently. He had a terrified expression as if he met his natural enemy! But Link didn¡¯t give him the chance to speak at all; instead, he raised the sword and cut down heavily! The giant Holy Sword of the Light flew down heavily from the sky, cutting towards Geno! Boom! The divine energy exploded, causing the entire sky and earth to shake. It was like a sr re, blooming to the extreme at this moment! Even space itself trembled and became unstable as if it was going to crumble! However, the light energy purified the dark energy and wiped away the death aura in the end, causing everything to return to normal. The Deathbone Swordsman in front of him slowly disappeared, leaving only a trail of ashes that were blown away by the wind. Under [Heavenly Blessing of the Holy Spirit]¡¯s and [Holy Sword of the Light]¡¯s effects, even the Super God-grade Deathbone Swordsman couldn¡¯t withstand the attack and was directly turned into ashes! At this moment, Saiya¡¯s voice appeared in Link¡¯s mind. ¡°Congrattions on clearing the Sin Realm¡¯s seventh tier!¡± ¡°You obtained an EXP reward: 500,000 EXP!¡± ¡°You obtained the clearing reward: [Undead Bone Armor], [Undead Bone Sword].¡± ¡°You obtained the clearing reward: [Blessing of the God of Death]!¡± ¡°You obtained the clearing reward: [City Building Token].¡± ... A golden light shed, and Link¡¯s aura intensified rapidly! [Ding! Congrattions on sessfully leveling up to Stage Two, Level 6!] ... [Ding! Congrattions on sessfully leveling up to Stage Two, Level 7!] ... [Ding! Congrattions on sessfully leveling up to Stage Two, Level 9!] ... [Ding! Congrattions on your summoned creature¡ªHoly Angel¡ªsessfully leveling up to Stage Two, Level 9!] [Ding! Congrattions on your summoned creature¡ªGod Devourer Ant¡ªsessfully leveling up to Stage Two, Level 9!] [Ding! Congrattions on your summoned creature¡ªChimera¡ªsessfully leveling up to Stage Two, Level 8!] ... While feeling the power flowing in his body, Link¡¯s mouth curved upwards slightly. The City of the Undead is indeed a godly ce for leveling. It actually directly made me level up five times, increasing my attributes significantly! However, what Link cared about the most were the clearing rewards! He finally obtained what he wanted! Link flipped his hand, and an ancient-looking token appeared. It was carved from a piece of ancient wood and had the word ¡®City¡¯ engraved on it. The token had a simple and insipid presence around it as if it were just an ordinary item. However, Link knew that all the top factions would go crazy over the token if the information about this thing spread in the outside world! This was because it was the... [City Building Token]! [City Building Token]: The user can use it to build a home city! Just this short introduction was enough to make Link¡¯s heart boil! This item was the reason he came here this time, and he had finally obtained it. Link suppressed the excitement in his heart, put away the [City Building Token], and continued to check his other rewards. [Undead Bone Sword] (Epic-grade) Strength: 500 Intelligence: 300 Constitution: 200 Agility: 200 Introduction: The Undead Bone Sword is the Deathbone Swordsman¡¯s exclusive weapon. Contaminated by death energy, it transformed into a bone sword that harvests life! Additional skill 1: [Death Devour] (Passive Skill): The user will be invaded by death energy. Thus, losing their mind and bing a madman who only knows to ughter. Increases the Strength attribute by 300%.

Additional skill 3: [Demon Energy] (Active Skill): The user can umte death energy to transform the Undead Bone Sword into the Demon Energy Sword. The user¡¯s Strength attribute is enhanced by 1,000%, and HP is reduced by 50%. No cooldown. This was the weapon the Deathbone Swordsman used. The terrifying attacks that Geno executed just now were the skills from this Undead Bone Sword! Upon seeing the information, Link was slightly shocked. As expected of an Epic-grade weapon, it is on par with my [Red Sky]! Luckily, he interrupted Geno¡¯s attack just now. If he let Geno sessfully gather death energy and transform the sword into the Demon Energy Sword, giving him a 1000% boost in Strength, even he would also have difficulty blocking Geno¡¯s attacks then. Link kept the sword and took out the [Undead Bone Armor]. Link had seen the power of this [Undead Bone Armor] with his own eyes. It could even resist the God Devourer Ant¡¯s attacks¡ªthis was enough to show how powerful its defensive ability was! [Undead Bone Armor] (Epic-grade) Strength: 200 Intelligence: 500 Constitution: 400 Agility: 300 Introduction: The Undead Bone Armor is the Deathbone Swordsman¡¯s exclusive equipment. Contaminated by death energy, it transformed into bone armor with extremely high defense!

Additional skill 3: [Undead Bone Shatter] (Active Skill): The user can activate the Undead Bone Armor¡¯s power to disintegrate their bones, turning them into extremely sharp attacks. This causes 500% prating damage and reduces the user¡¯s HP by 20%. No cooldown! After seeing these two pieces of equipment¡¯s attributes, Link couldn¡¯t help but shake his head. This Deathbone Swordsman, Geno, is really a ruthless person. He was practically ying with his own life by using these pieces of equipment! However, Undead-type equipment was indeed all like this. Although they caused lots of damage to the user, the power they granted the user was indeed way more than other types of equipment of the same grade. This was considered the ¡®taking damage to kill¡¯ battle style! However, the Deathbone Swordsman was devoured by death energy long ago and was already dead. Thus, it could absorb death energy to recover its HP, making the pieces of equipment¡¯s negative effects insignificant to Geno! However, these two items weren¡¯t the most important to Link. What Link cared about the most was the [Blessing of the God of Death]! Chapter 58: Blessing of the God of Death, Body of Death!

Chapter 58: Blessing of the God of Death, Body of Death!

Rumble! The City of the Undead began to shake, and the divine light of order emerged, causing the quiet and peaceful Undead Town to stir! Water vapor intertwined in the sky, forming rune-like clouds that seemed to bear down upon them. ¡°What happened?¡± asked Yang Xuerou. When looking up at this scene, she sensed an immense power surging out. ¡°Master has sessfully cleared the Sin Realm¡¯s seventh tier, bing the first existence to clear the seventh tier in thest 10,000 years!¡± said Saiya. Her eyes were filled with surprise and envy. She had guarded the City of the Undead for many years but had never seen anyone able to clear the seventh tier with just one attempt. Even Tallis, who was number one on the divine trial tablet, had challenged the seventh tier before but failed. ¡°Link seeded!¡± Yang Xuerou¡¯s expression was that of surprise and delight. She felt happy about Link¡¯s sess! At this moment, the light in the sky suddenly changed, bing even more immerse as if a divine power was bearing down on them. The pressure was enormous, causing the hearts of the people on the ground to tremble! Endless death energy appeared and intertwined together. The runes of order constantly shed, causing this strange force to cover the entire sky. The sky was filled with these runes¡ªwhich shone and lighted each other even more. It really was a shocking sight to behold! ¡°It-it¡¯s the God of Death¡¯s power!¡± Saiya eximed in surprise, her expression shocked. She never thought the City of the Undead¡ªwhich had been silent for 10,000 years¡ªwould actually arouse the God of Death¡¯s power. Saiya was aware that the God of Death was the City of the Undead¡¯s first owner! The God of Death was a god from an ancient era. He was the controller of death, in charge of the reincarnation cycle of life and death, and caused death to appear in the world! Once the God of Death appeared, even heaven and earth itself would tremble. The whole world would also enter a death crisis where all living things were going to die! However, due to the ancient great cmity and war of the gods¡ªwhich both caused the gods to die or disappear¡ªno god¡¯s power existed in the world anymore. Even the God of Death, who ruled over an entire realm, also disappeared and was never heard of again. However, the City of the Undead was the God of Death¡¯s belonging in the end. Naturally, it contained the God of Death¡¯s power. But Saiya never thought that this power, which hadin dormant for countless years, would actually erupt at this moment! Chi! Right at this moment, a divine light emerged, suddenly descended from the sky, and shot into the Sin Realm, causing the dark space there to be filled with death aura. Inside Sin Realm, Link sensed an extremely immense and mighty power descending upon him and suddenly invading his body. This was an extreme power of death; it was like it could easily strip and devour a person¡¯s life force, turning them into withered bones. ¡°Hm?¡± Link¡¯s eyes focused. The power was too vast and ignored his defense. He had no way of resisting it at all and could only let this powerpletely enter his body. However, he could sense that this power didn¡¯t pose any threat to him. Instead, it seemed to grant him a certain type of power. [Ding! Congrattions on obtaining the Blessing of the God of Death!] As the power of death entered his body, Link¡¯s body underwent an extreme change too! Deep-green death energy filled Link¡¯s organs, causing a death aura to surround Link. It made him look like a corpse. However, this death aura didn¡¯t devour his life force. Instead, it integrated with his organs, transforming into pure energy that strengthened his body! Link¡¯s body trembled. The death aura gradually receded, and recing it was a mighty force that burst out from his body! [Ding! Congrattions on activating the Body of Death!] [Body of Death] (Super God) Special constitution! Introduction: The Body of Death is the constitution closest to that of the God of Death. It is immune to all death energy and can transform it into pure life energy. The notifications in his mind caused Link to tremble again. It should be known that in [Doomsday Online], the things that determined the path a human took wasn¡¯t just talent and profession; there was another important factor! Constitution! Constitution was akin to the upper limit of a person¡¯s talent. Those with powerful constitutions were mostly more powerful than those without. It was a natural enhancement, something that resulted from the transmutation of a person¡¯s bloodline. It wasn¡¯t something that a normal person couldpare against! Most of those with special constitutions could activate special professions that were rted to their constitution. Just this starting point alone was much higher than that of normal people! Link¡¯s original constitution was the [Body of the Void]. Therefore, he automatically activated the hidden profession, [Void Summoner], when he changed his profession. Then, his profession became the Taboo-grade profession, [Great Void Taboo Master], because of [Supreme Blessing]. However, the Taboo-grade profession was also closely rted to his [Body of the Void] constitution. The effect constitutions had on humans was enormous. It even determined the upper limit of their talent. Take Xue Linglong for example. She awakened the [Body of Frost]. Thus, she activated the Diamond-grade hidden profession, [Extreme Ice Combat Maiden]! There was also Luo Xingyao. Her constitution was the Epic-grade [Demon Sealing Arrow Body], which allowed her to be one of the ten strongest humans in his previous life. In Link¡¯s memory of his previous life, there was a person¡ªrumored to be the number one summoner¡ªwith the [Elemental Body], causing him to be close to elemental energy. This resulted in him bing the [Elemental Summoner]! Therefore, special constitutions were things that humans dreamed of having. They were something that could allow them to reach a much higher stage and be more powerful! By right, Link should be happy since he activated the [Body of Death]. After all, this was a Super God-grade constitution¡ªit definitely wasn¡¯t weak. However, Link suddenly remembered something extremely important¡ªa person could only possess one special constitution each! If a person possessed two different constitutions at the same time, the two different constitutions¡¯ powers would collide with each other and cause a powerful force to erupt in their body. By that time, when this terrifying force erupted inside the body, nobody would be able to stop it. The person would definitely explode and die! Link already had the [Body of the Void] in the first ce. Now that the [Body of Death] was forcefully activated, he had two different constitutions at the same time! ¡°Oh, no!¡± Link¡¯s expression changed slightly. He sensed the two different powers already converging together slowly. It was like a bomb with the fuse ignited¡ªit was going to explode at any time now! Boom! A muffled bang sounded! Extremely violent energy erupted from Link¡¯s body, causing his body to tremble! The blood in Link¡¯s body surged, and hisplexion kept changing. It was void-like purple for a while; it then became death-like deep green again. The fight between the two powers seemed very tight! The power of the void belonging to the [Body of the Void] started colliding with the [Body of Death]¡¯s power of death. The two powers fought and intertwined with each other, creating a terrifying force in Link¡¯s body. Momentarily, Link could feel his body bing something like an arena¡ªwhere two extreme powers crazily knocked and collided against each other, causing violent waves of energy to erupt! ¡°Isn¡¯t this a joke?¡± Link smiled bitterly. A Super God-grade constitution that people would go crazy over became trouble for him and put him in a crisis instead! Chapter 59: Double Profession, Death Judge!

Chapter 59: Double Profession, Death Judge!

A chaotic energy built up in Link¡¯s body! The two different powers became more and more violent, like beasts that escaped from their respective cages and tried to kill each other! Link didn¡¯t panic. He sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and calmed his mind, trying to suppress the two powers! If he couldn¡¯t suppress them, his body would probably explode. In that instance, he would truly die! However, these two powers weren¡¯t something that could be easily suppressed. They were like wild horses that got loose from their chains and madly rampaged in Link¡¯s body, causing his blood to go chaotic and his lungs to tremble. Unlike energy from the outside world, energy that came from within one¡¯s body was hard to defend against. Of the two powers, the power of death had the upper hand. This was a power exclusive to the God of Death¡ªit was extremely pure. Under the overflowing death energy, even the power of the void retreated in defeat and was about to be devoured! ¡°Back away!¡± Link roared in a low voice when he sensed danger. If he let the power of death consume the power of the void in his body, his [Body of the Void] would disintegrate. In such an instance, he might be severely injured because of the disintegration of his constitution. He might even lose his Taboo-grade profession, [Great Void Taboo Master]! ¡°Even if the God of Death came personally, I shall also chase the power of death out of my body today!¡± Link was quite angry. He didn¡¯t think that the God of Death would secretly y such tricks and try to devour his original constitution. By then, wouldn¡¯t he be the God of Death¡¯s puppet? Others might be able to tolerate such a thing, but not him! Link focused his mind and gathered all of his energy, including the power of the void, to begin counter-attacking! Boom! Boom! Boom! A series of muffled explosions sounded from within Link¡¯s body as if the earth itself was trembling, causing a mighty force to burst out! If it weren¡¯t because his original constitution was very strong, he might have already exploded and died long ago. He was currently in this predicament because of the two powers within his body. Nobody could help him except himself! Even so, he couldn¡¯t chase away the power of death, causing the situation to be stuck in a stalemate. Inside Link¡¯s body, it was as if the immense power of death had transformed into a death reaper that waved its scythe, dering war on the power of the void! Link controlled the power of the void to transform into a void battle god and fight against the power of death, causing the battle to reach its most intense stage! ¡°This is my body. Even though this power belongs to the God of Death, it must respect my decision!¡± Link let out a long howl, and the power of the void in his body suddenly went all out, causing the deep purple-color light to shine to the extreme. At the same time, an inexplicable force from the power of the void appeared too! This force was immense. It seemed to invoke the ancient gods¡¯ chants, suppressing the world itself. This inexplicable power belonged to the Taboo-grade power of the void. It was finally able to be mobilized and formed a gigantic hand that suddenly grabbed at the power of death. Boom! A loud bang sounded! Even the Super God-grade power of death couldn¡¯t defend against a Taboo-grade power. The power of death was forcefully shattered into mist-like vapors and gradually disappeared. Upon seeing this, Link breathed out in relief. If he couldn¡¯t resist, he would really be trapped in death and be the God of Death¡¯s puppet. Luckily, everything was over now. Link¡¯s body had now returned to normal. Link opened his eyes, and a deep cold light emitted from his eyes. ¡°God of Death! I have remembered you!¡± Link humphed coldly. If it weren¡¯t because he reacted in time, he might really have fallen victim to the God of Death¡¯s trap. The City of the Undead seemed to be a trial ground, but in reality, it wasn¡¯t that simple. This might very possibly be a ce for the God of Death to choose his puppets! Only when the most excellent talents broke through the trial ground¡¯s limits would the God of Death attempt to control them! Unfortunately for the God of Death, the person it met this time was Link, who possessed a Taboo-grade power. Due to this Taboo-grade power, the God of Death¡¯s n was destined to fail! ¡°This is an extremely mighty power; I mustn¡¯t waste it!¡± Link didn¡¯t force the power of death out of his body. It waspletely suppressed by the power of the void now and was no longer a threat. The [Body of Death] could also enhance his strength significantly. After all, this power belonged to the God of Death; its might was beyond words, but Link was absolutely confident of controlling this power! [Ding! Congrattions on sessfully gaining the Body of Death!] [Ding! Congrattions on sessfully activating the hidden profession: Death Judge!] [Ding! Congrattions on changing profession sessfully and bing the noble Death Judge!] A series of notifications sounded in Link¡¯s mind, causing a slight smile to appear on his face. Profession: [Death Judge] Grade: Super God Constitution: +10,000 [Body of Death] (Passive): Talent skill. Constitution increases by 100 with each level up! [Indestructible Death Body] (Passive): The Death Judge is immune to death energy and transforms into the Indestructible Death Body, making the Death Judge immune to all physical damage. Special-type damage is also reduced by 70%. [Death Judgment] (Active): The Death Judge can control the power of death to initiate death judgments on living creatures. Death-type damage is increased by 10,000%. Death Judge also has a 10% probability of causing instant death! After reading the introductions, Link¡¯s mouth curled up slightly! As expected of a Super God-grade hidden profession, it is indeed powerful. The [Death Judge] profession enhanced Link¡¯s attack power greatly. Although [Great Void Taboo Master] was a Taboo-grade profession, its strengthid in summoned creatures. It didn¡¯t increase Link¡¯s personal power by too much. Of course, as the summoned creatures¡¯ level increased, the stat enhancement Link received would also increase. It was a kind ofte-stage growth profession. However, Link would undergo aplete change with the [Death Judge] profession. Unlike other summoners, he wouldn¡¯t need to hide behind his summoned creatures anymore. Next time, I will just send my summoned creatures to attack my enemies first. If they can¡¯t defeat the enemy, I will personally crush the enemy. Won¡¯t that feel awesome? Just thinking of this caused him to feel stimted. ... Link calmed down momentster, but doubts arose in his heart. By right, a person can only have one constitution and one profession. However, why am I able to have two professions¡ª[Great Void Taboo Master and [Death Judge]¡ªand two constitutions simultaneously? Also, where exactly did my [Body of the Void]e from? ording to his memories of his previous life, he obtained the [Void Summoner] profession in his previous life when he was meditating, and his mind roamed the Sea of The Void. At that point in time, Link only thought that he was lucky and didn¡¯t think too much. However, Link now realized that he hadn¡¯t obtained the [Void Summoner] profession because he was lucky. It was because he was born with it. It was just that his constitutionid dormant and was only activated at theter stages of his previous life. But Link had activated the [Body of the Void] right from the start in this lifetime, causing it to be Taboo-grade through Supreme Blessing! However, the source of this bloodline is still unclear! Could it be that it originated from my parents? Upon thinking up to this point, Link fell silent. Chapter 60: Master of the City of the Undead

Chapter 60: Master of the City of the Undead

Thews of the world were mysterious and unpredictable! Ever since the descent of the apocalypse, thews of order had changed, allowing the powerful to rise to prominence and the talented to show themselves to the world. The top group of people all had powerful bloodline constitutions. It originated from their ancestors. It was passed down from ancient times and engraved in their bones, hidden in their bodies. For this batch of people, the speed at which they trained and increased in power all exceeded that of ordinary people. This was an advantage they had from birth, a gap that was hard to close. However, this was the first time Link knew that he was actually one of those people in the top group. He possessed the Void Bloodline, became the [Void Summoner], and ended up as the fear-instilling [Asura Summoner] in his previous life! All of this was closely rted to the Void Bloodline. However, Link still felt gloomy in his heart because he didn¡¯t know his background. He didn¡¯t even know who and where his parents were! Link had once searched for them in his previous life, but it was to no avail. It was like they were illusory and ethereal¡ªnot a single trace could be found! However, this lifetime would be different. Since he had been reborn, he would definitely change his fate by not repeating his past mistakes and climbing to the top of the world! The current him already had enough potential to unveil all the secrets and restore peace to the world. Thinking of this, a deep light¡ªas bright as the light that came from the stars¡ªshot out from his eyes. ¡°Link!¡± At this moment, Saiya and Yang Xuerou walked over. They sensed a powerful presence descending earlier, preventing anyone froming near. They both let out sighs of relief when they saw that Link was safe and sound and that everything had calmed down. ¡°Saiya, is the God of Death the City of the Undead¡¯s founder?¡± Link asked, his tone slightly cold. He hadn¡¯t forgotten what just happened. ¡°That¡¯s right! The God of Death originally founded the City of the Undead to absorb energy from dead souls. But for some unknown reason, it waster changed into a trial ground!¡± Saiya nodded and narrated what she knew, but Saiya¡¯s attitude had vaguely changed. Link nodded slightly. The City of the Undead is way too ancient. It was passed down from ancient times, and it has many secrets hidden within. It won¡¯t be easy to unveil its secrets. But Link didn¡¯t mind. Since he possessed a Taboo-grade power, he would definitely suppress whatever plots and conspiracies that dared to show up with his power. He had no need to fear. Also, Link had gained huge rewards on this trip, and his power had increased significantly! Just in terms of level alone, he had leveled up to Stage Two, Level 9. Link had also obtained two Epic-grade items! With Supreme Blessing¡¯s enhancement, these two Epic-grade items would soon be even stronger. But the most important thing was that he had activated a second profession, [Death Judge]! This increased Link¡¯sbat power greatly, enough for him to battle against a Stage Five existence! Even the monster siege, which would descend soon, didn¡¯t make him feel any pressure now. ¡°Dear adventurer, the divine trial tablet will automatically record your heroic achievement since you have sessfully cleared the Sin Realm¡¯s seventh tier. Of course, you can also choose to hide your information,¡± said Saiya, her tone filled with shock. She never expected that the first human to enter the City of the Undead in 10,000 years would actually create an unprecedented record. This was really shocking. ¡°Naturally!¡± Link smiled insipidly and waved his hand, causing a wave of power to surge out. Purple lines¡ªwhich looked like a dragon chasing a pearl¡ªwere strongly carved onto the divine trial tablet, engraving a fewrge words at the top of the tablet! The other names on the tablet all moved down one row. The information on the divine trial tablet had now changed. [1] Name: None Profession: Death Judge Level: Stage Two, Level 5 Record: Sin Realm Tier Seven! [2] Name: Tallis Profession: Order Master Level: Stage Three, Level 10 Record: Sin Realm Tier Six! ... ... Other than the first ce being reced and the name inst ce kicked out of the tablet, the rest remained pretty much the same. However, Link left extremely little information on the tablet. Of course, Link only hid his name and his [Great Void Taboo Master] profession. There were too many secrets hidden in this world. If he exposed his power too much, he would definitely be targeted by some people. In his previous life, he knew very well how horrifying this would be! Although he wasn¡¯t afraid in this lifetime, it would only create unnecessary trouble for him at this time. He had no need to create troubles for himself. Link had an unprecedented advantage with the memories of his previous life. ¡°Since you are the first adventurer to clear the Sin Realm¡¯s seventh tier in 10,000 years, and you are close to death energy, you have also resolved the City of the Undead¡¯s taboo! You will be the City of the Undead¡¯s new master!¡± Saiya said, her tone respectful. After she said this, the City of the Undead started trembling. Endless death energy surged out and gathered, transforming into a stream of light that descended upon Link. The light disappeared in a sh, directly entering Link¡¯s body. Link¡¯s body trembled momentarily, and a connection appeared in his mind, which seemed to grant him control over the City of the Undead! Upon seeing this, Link¡¯s eyes shed; he knew why this had happened. He knew that this was because of the [Body of Death]! The [Body of Death] was the God of Death¡¯s power. It was controlled and used by Link now, so he naturally had a portion of the God of Death¡¯s power now! Since the City of the Undead was created by the God of Death, even the City of the Undead believed that Link was the God of Death¡¯s sessor and actively submitted to him since he was rted to the God of Death now. Link¡¯s mouth rose slightly after he sensed this mysterious will from an unknown ce. He hadplete control over the City of the Undead and had be this ancient realm¡¯s master now! It should be known that even the Temple of Light didn¡¯t achieve this in his previous life. Even a faction as powerful as the Temple of Light could only upy and guard this ce, unable to do anything else! Link could actively control the City of the Undead now, which gave him a huge advantage! This was because he knew that the City of the Undead wasn¡¯t just a blessednd for leveling; it was also a good ce for him to get rich! Just this divine trial tablet alone was enough to attract countless talents toe. Not only could one increase their power and train themselves here, but this was also a ce where they could be famous and show their might to the world! All those who could leave their names on the divine trial tablet were top talents that dominated over their respective territories. Who didn¡¯t wish to leave their name on the divine trial tablet and be famous far and wide? This wasn¡¯t only a symbol of power; it could also make everyone in the world admire them! At that moment, Link would gain some benefits from it. What, you want to leave your name on the divine trial tablet? Sure, but you must enter the City of the Undead first, right? If you want to enter, you must pay the entrance fee! Link remembered very well that the Temple of Light used the entrance fee alone to earn arge fortune. Also, one would also need to pay for many other things after they entered the City of the Undead. Everything they did in the City of the Undead required the support of trial points. It would be hard for Link not to get rich! With Link¡¯s current ability, he could keep all of these benefits for himself. There wasn¡¯t any reason for him to leave any benefits for the insidious God of Death, right? Link wasn¡¯t going to be courteous with the God of Death. He had already thought of a series of ns to exploit the City of the Undead for his own gains. Equipment, treasures, magical medicine, and so on, Link expressed that he would ept all of these! As long as one dared toe, he would dare to ept whatever they gave! Just thinking of this caused him to feel stimted! ... Boom! Just at this moment, arge sound resounded throughout the City of the Undead. Chapter 61: Two Big Factions, Impending Danger!

Chapter 61: Two Big Factions, Impending Danger!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Boom! Another loud exploding sound reverberated! Like a bomb being ignited, the explosion resounded across the entire ce. ¡°What happened?¡± Yang Xuerou was rmed and at a loss of what to do. ¡°A bunch of annoying fellows!¡± Link humphed coldly and waved his hand, causing a light screen to appear in front of them! On it, they could see the scene outside the City of the Undead. Hundreds of figures were currently gathered outside, all of them looking very aggressive and fierce. They obviously came with ill intentions. They were a group of well-equipped people. They gave off a fearsome aura as if they were military trained! Simr to Alloy Team One¡ªwhich had appeared previously¡ªall of these people had equipped powerful alloy armor. However,pared to Alloy Team One, these people were even stronger! They were the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s three other teams¡ªHidden Dragon, Fire Phoenix, and ck Tiger! ¡°Hahaha, the Doctor is indeed right! There really is a miraculous existence here!¡± A sturdily-built man with bulging muscles¡ªequipped with ck-gold armor¡ªwalked out and shouted, looking at the City of the Undead with zing eyes. He was the one who attacked just now to test the City of the Undead. However, it was to no avail. From this, they could be certain that this building didn¡¯t belong to Dragon City. It was surrounded by strange phenomena, looked unique, and filled with mystery. ¡°This is definitely a trial dungeon. If we can upy this ce, our ck Dragon Gang will definitely be able to dominate Dragon City!¡± This man was extremely excited; an air of recklessness exuded from his body. He was like a tiger that had left its territory to hunt its prey, looking extremely violent! This person was ck Tiger Team One¡¯s leader¡ªck Tiger! He was a Stage Three, Level 8 Gold-grade Fighter! The three groups that represented the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s top forces had finally arrived! ¡°ording to historical records, this ce should be the legendary City of the Undead!¡± A figure with a sexy-looking body walked out from behind ck Tiger. It was a female dressed in a red robe. Not only did she have a hot figure, but even her words also seemed to be filled with charm. It was as if she could make those who saw her fall into a sea of lust. She was the leader of Fire Phoenix Team One¡ªFire Phoenix! She was a Stage Three, Level 9 Diamond-grade Mage! Her pupils were bright red. A red rune seemed to be held within her eyes, causing her entire person to look very flirtatious. However, if someone dared to look at her pupils directly, they would be burned into ashes by a zing fire! She was a dangerous woman! Next to these two was a man, who quietly stood there with his arms folded. Although he didn¡¯t talk, an aura of extreme sharpness radiated from him. He was like a sharp de that was ready to take a life at any moment! Even ck Tiger and Fire Phoenix didn¡¯t dare to act too arrogant in front of him. He was Hidden Dragon Team One¡¯s leader¡ªHidden Dragon! Hidden Dragon was a Stage Three, Level 3 Diamond-grade Assassin! He was also known as the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s strongest assassin! ¡°Hahaha, we will gain lots of benefits if we upy this ce!¡± stated ck Tiger, his voice loud like thunder, and his aura extremely vigorous. It could be seen that they were set on obtaining the City of the Undead. ¡°Don¡¯t be happy yet! There¡¯s a difficult fellow to handle here!¡± said Hidden Dragon calmly. His voice was cold, and his eyes were like a sword. Suddenly, he violently turned towards a certain direction. ¡°Hehe, as expected of Hidden Dragon¡ªwho is known as the Assassin de! Your perception is indeed sharp!¡± At this moment, a hoarse voice¡ªwhich sounded withered and extremely dry¡ªechoed, causing the listeners¡¯ scalps to go numb! On the other end of the street, a wave of blood seemed to be spreading over. It filled the air with a pungent bloody smell. It was like a beast that had just eaten its prey, emitting a disgusting smell. A bunch of people dressed in blood-red robes appeared. The blood-red robes covered their entire bodies, revealing only their scarlet pupils. They looked extremely fierce and evil. Amidst this endless sea of blood, a blood-red figure walked out from it. He was extremely petite and seemed to have no flesh and blood. Only skin wrapped the figure¡¯s bones, making the figure appear very terrifying and disgusting. However, the aura the figure emitted was the most horrifying thing. It was like the bloodthirsty aura that emitted from a wild beast endlessly! Once he appeared, everyone seemed to feel themselves being overwhelmed by a sea of blood, shaking their hearts and soul. ¡°Blood Fiend Gang, Bloodseeker?¡± ck Tiger frowned when he spotted Bloodseeker; fear could be seen in his eyes. He recognized who the people dressed in blood-red robes were¡ªthese people were the notorious Blood Fiend Gang! Besides Bloodseeker, ck Tiger was dismissive of the other people in the Blood Fiend Gang. ck Tiger could feel a deep sense of pressure from Bloodseeker. Although the apocalypse had only just descended, Bloodseeker¡¯s fierce name and reputation had already spread throughout Dragon City! On the first day of the apocalypse, Bloodseeker sacrificed 100,000 people and used an evil art to extract their blood and souls to build a Blood Demon Altar. This allowed Bloodseeker to increase his might rapidly. After that, he became even more vicious and cruel. He killed all beings within a 100-mile radius, regardless if they were human or Undead. At that time, Bloodseeker¡¯s actions invoked the rage of numerous powerful people. They ganged up and tried to attack the Blood Fiend Gang. Amongst them were even people who were Stage Three existences! They definitely were very terrifying people since they could reach Stage Three in the first few days of the apocalyptic world. Both their talent and resources far exceeded those of ordinary people. However, none of them survived in the end. They were turned into blood and bone¡ªwhich were used as nourishment for the altar. Bloodseeker even used this opportunity to reach the maximum level of Stage Three, only a step away from bing a Stage Four existence. It should be known that this was only the fifth day since the apocalypse descended. It could be seen how terrifying Bloodseeker was! The number of people killed was even more terrifying than the undead creatures. The way he carried out his murders was also horrific. Upon seeing Bloodseeker appear, even ck Tiger became cautious. He then cautiously said, ¡°Bloodseeker, the ck Dragon Gang reached this ce first!¡± Although Bloodseeker had a fearsome reputation, ck Tiger wasn¡¯t really afraid of him. After all, he wasn¡¯t alone. All of ck Tiger Team One, Fire Phoenix Team One, and Hidden Dragon Team One were here. With theirbined power, it was impossible for Bloodseeker to be a match for them, right? ¡°I am not interested in this ce! I am only interested in fresh blood!¡± stated Bloodseeker, licking his dry lips. A blood mist spread from his body as he showed a bloodthirsty gaze. The pupils of the three ck Dragon Gang teams¡¯ members all constricted. The blood in their bodies seemed to turn violent and wanted to burst out from their bodies. ¡°Humph!¡± Hidden Dragon humphed coldly, a powerful force erupting from his body. It broke up the blood mist. ¡°Bloodseeker, I advise you to behave yourself. If not, don¡¯t me us for not being polite with you!¡± A sharp glint shed in Hidden Dragon¡¯s eyes, the ck Dragon Dagger also appearing in his hand as if he was about to deal a fatal blow. ¡°Don¡¯t be so nervous. It¡¯s not like I came here for you guys.¡± Bloodseeker had a casual expression, disregarding Hidden Dragon¡¯s threat. He then turned his scarlet pupils towards another direction. A group of people was standing there. The people in the lead were Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyao. Under Link¡¯smand, they had returned to the school and brought the students here. On their way here, they were attacked by the Blood Fiend Gang. Those bloodthirsty crazy demons were after their blood to practice their evil arts! Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyao naturally couldn¡¯t allow that to happen and battled with them. With Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyao¡¯s strength, the two of them overpowered the Blood Fiend Gang and killed a few gang members in session! However, a powerful demon was hiding inside the Blood Fiend Gang and directly injured the two of them, forcing them to escape. Now, Luo Xinghe, Luo Xingyao, and the others had nowhere to run and were in great danger! Chapter 62: Bloodseeker!

Chapter 62: Bloodseeker!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios The fifth day of the apocalypse! The moon was bright, and the stars were scarce. The atmosphere outside Mingshi Cemetery was extremely tense. Strong killing intent filled the air, instilling a strange sense of fear in people. The three different groups of people had all gathered here, and Luo Xinghe¡¯s group had no way to run now. ¡°This is bad!¡± When Luo Xinghe saw Bloodseeker look in their direction, his face changed. His heart was also grave. The pressure emanating from Bloodseeker was extremely terrifying, fierce, and brutal. He was just like a bloodthirsty beast. Under this pressure, they even seemed to feel difficulty breathing. ¡°Blood Fiend¡¯s scent is on your bodies... Are you guys the ones who killed Blood Fiend?¡± Bloodseeker coldly said, a murderous glint gathering in his eyes. ¡°So what if it was us?¡± asked Luo Xinghe, drawing out his de as he stared at Bloodseeker solemnly. Bloodseeker¡¯s might was even more terrifying than that of Blood Fiend. When the Blood Fiend Gang wiped out Luo Xinghe¡¯s family, Bloodseeker was the one in the lead. Now facing his enemy, Luo Xinghe¡¯s expression was full of bitterness as a sense of helplessness overwhelmed his heart. Although he had reached Stage Two in this short period of time, he was still not a match for Bloodseeker. Bloodseeker was a Stage Three, Level 10 being. Bloodseeker¡¯s power was like a mountain blocking Luo Xinghe¡¯s path, making him unable to pass. Luo Xingyao bit her lips, staring at Bloodseeker with a deadly re. She was ready to fire the [Bow of Elf] in her hand at any moment. ¡°Blood Fiend actually died in the hands of two useless trash. This really is interesting. However... those who dare to kill the Blood Fiend Gang members will have to repay this debt with fresh blood!¡± Bloodseeker smiled hideously and licked his lips. His hideous face was like a screaming ghost¡¯s, causing the others to shudder. ¡°Those students are dead for sure!¡± Fire Phoenix shook her head, a hint of pity shing in her eyes. This Bloodseeker is a bloodthirsty madman who possesses powerful evil arts. Those who are targeted by him will definitely end up as a pile of bones after having their blood sucked outpletely. ¡°Don¡¯t seek trouble. Just watch on.¡± Hidden Dragon spoke in a deep voice, ncing at Fire Phoenix. Upon hearing this, Fire Phoenix shrugged. She didn¡¯t intend to intervene in the first ce. In this apocalyptic world, it didn¡¯t pay to be a kind person... ¡°Next, let me see which of you pitiful people will receive my favor and experience the blood feast?¡± Bloodseeker smiled coldly, and bloodthirst exploded from his body as if he wanted to suck their blood dry. He really was a terrible demon who had reaped countless lives and viewed human lives asmon grass. ¡°I choose you! What a beautiful woman, your blood is definitely extremely sweet!¡± After taking a look at them, Bloodseeker¡¯s eyesnded on Luo Xingyao, greed and bloodthirst showing in his pupils. Bloodseeker could sense a powerful bloodline in Luo Xingyao¡¯s body. If he devoured her blood, it would enhance the power of his evil arts greatly! ¡°Bloodseeker, don¡¯t be too full of yourself!¡± Luo Xinghe shouted, raising his de and shing at Bloodseeker. [Meteor Chop]! Luo Xinghe directly used his killing move right from the start. The pressure he felt from Bloodseeker was toorge, so he didn¡¯t dare to be careless. Only by attacking with full power would he have a slight chance of surviving. ¡°You are just an ant to me, yet you still dare to retaliate?¡± Bloodseeker smiled coldly and waved his hand with disdain. The blood mist around his body ran riot and condensed into a gigantic blood hand. Once formed, the blood hand mmed towards Luo Xinghe. Boom! A loud bang sounded! The blood hand was extremely powerful, directly shattering the energy created by the de. This caused Luo Xinghe to be blown away by the resulting shockwave. ¡°Pu!¡± Luo Xinghe vomited blood, his body gravely injured as he copsed to the ground. Luo Xinghe¡¯s dended beside him, its light dimming as if it was corroded by the blood mist and losing its spirit. ¡°Damn it!¡± Luo Xinghe¡¯s eyes were filled with unwillingness, but the strength difference between the two of them was too great. It was like arge chasm that was hard to cross over. Whiz! Arrows burst towards Bloodseeker! Luo Xingyao had attacked. Light glowed around the [Bow of Elf] as she drew out the Big Dipper¡¯s power. She then shot arrows towards her target. When the seven stars met, even the moon could be shattered! This attack was also Luo Xingyao¡¯s strongest move! ¡°Humph!¡± Bloodseeker humphed coldly and created the blood hand again, nning to crush this group of people¡¯sst hope. Boom! Blood mist erupted from the blood hand! Several holes formed in the gigantic hand due to Luo Xingyao¡¯s [Seven Stars Broken Moon]. Bloodseeker¡¯s attack was stopped because of this! ¡°Yo, this is interesting!¡± Bloodseeker was quite surprised. He never thought that the feeble looking woman in front of him could actually burst out with such fierce strength! ¡°What a powerful woman! This way, the benefits of devouring your blood will be even better!¡± ¡°Submit to the sea of blood!¡± Bloodseeker attacked again, forming a sea of blood mist, which crashed down on Luo Xingyao with unstoppable force. The blood mist was like the tides in the sea, suddenly condensing into a tsunami. It blocked out the entire sky as if it was going to envelop everything in its path. When they saw this, despair appeared in everyone¡¯s eyes. This was an irresistible force, enough to crush all of them into pieces. Chi! Right at this moment, a phenomenon suddenly appeared! Arge ray of holy light shot out from the City of the Undead and covered the sky, seemingly turning night into day! This ray of holy light descended and shrouded the people in Luo Xingyao¡¯s group, blocking out the blood mist sea. Zi zi zi! The holy light and blood mist intertwined together and began to evaporate violently. Afterward, both forces gradually dissipated. The blood mist¡¯s terrifying might was resolved in a sh, and everything seemed to be restored to normal. ¡°Hm?¡± The glint in Bloodseeker¡¯s eyes focused. He sensed that someone powerful had intervened and blocked his attack! When he shifted his gaze over, he saw a few figures walking out from the City of the Undead. The person in the lead was Link, who had a cold expression. He wore a long robe and had a long, slender body shape. Yuna, God Devourer, and Yang Xuerou closely followed behind him. ¡°Are you guys okay?!¡± asked Link, his tone cold as he red at Bloodseeker sternly. ¡°Lord...¡± When she saw Link appear, Luo Xingyao stared at him with excited eyes. Her heavy heart finally rxed, and she let out a sigh of relief. This was because she believed that all crises could be resolved once this man appeared. Yang Xuerou hurriedly walked up and used her healing spell to heal their wounds, also stabilizing their breathing. ¡°You are their master?¡± Bloodseeker asked, and a strange light shed in his eyes. He could perceive Link¡¯s power, so he knew that LInk was only a Stage Two, Level 9 existence. However, he could feel a mysterious pressure emanating from Link for some reason. This was unimaginable. It should be known that Bloodseeker was able to survive in this apocalypse not only because of his evil arts, but also his keen perception. Bloodseeker¡¯s principle was to avoid the strong and only target those who posed no danger to him. Unfortunately, he couldn¡¯t imagine how this person who was only a Stage Two, Level 9 existence could actually pose a threat to him! ¡°Could it be that my perception is wrong?¡± Bloodseeker muttered to himself before his expression returned into one of arrogance. Bloodseeker¡¯s gaze thennded on Yang Xuerou. A scarlet light suddenly shot out from his pupils. He could sense the purity of Yang Xuerou¡¯s bloodline. Its purity far exceeded all those he had previously encountered. Her bloodline contained an extremely holy power that had yet to be tainted by the mortal world. It was like a natural-born spirit treasure, causing others to go crazy over it! This type of power is the best cultivation tool for me! Bloodseeker was determined to obtain this woman.

A fierce ray of light seemingly shot out from his eyes andnded on Yang Xuerou as if he wanted to devour all of her blood. Feeling Bloodseeker¡¯s gaze, Yang Xuerou shuddered, and her heart trembled. She shrunk her body and hid behind Link. ¡°Tsk tsk. Kid, you aren¡¯t very powerful, but you have quite a few beauties surrounding you. Unfortunately for you, these beauties are all mine now. You can just rest assured and die!¡± Bloodseekerughed coldly, the greed in his eyes bing even more intense. He didn¡¯t pay much attention to Link, viewing him as just a human that was about to turn into a dry corpse! ¡°You are very arrogant!¡± Link¡¯s expression was insipid as the coldness in his eyes intensified even more. ¡°Kid, I am Bloodseeker. I am going to be Dragon City¡¯s...¡± Bloodseeker was dismissive of Link and wanted to ridicule him. However, a ck figure violently charged towards him before he could finish his sentence. Bloodseeker¡¯s eyes shrunk. Before he could react, the ck figure hit him! Boom! Bloodseeker retreated rapidly; he was knocked back a few hundred meters before he managed to stop himself. The God Devourer Ant¡¯s figure suddenly appeared at its original position, waving its little fist in a very rxed attitude. When it previously faced the Deathbone Swordsman¡¯s absolute defense in the Sin Realm, God Devourer was so aggrieved that it felt like dying. It wasn¡¯t able to cause the slightest damage to the Deathbone Swordsman, and its powerful strength was of no use. Now, this bone-like person¡ªwho looked like a piece of dry wood¡ªactually dared to nder its master. This was something that the God Devourer Ant couldn¡¯t tolerate. Because of this, God Devourer directly rushed out and beat up Bloodseeker. Although it was only at Stage Two, it was still a dangerous creature from ancient times in the end. It possessed extreme strength, and its might was beyond words. ¡°You...¡± Bloodseeker was shocked. He felt an extremely heavy force overwhelm him just now, seemingly tearing his body apart. If it weren¡¯t for the fact he had reached Stage Three, Level 10, and had high HP, the attack would¡¯ve killed him. Even so, Bloodseeker still felt horrible. Both his blood flow and breathing were disrupted and chaotic now. However, before Bloodseeker had time to react, the God Devourer Ant had rushed in front of him again. Under the buff from [Heavenly Power], God Devourer attacked Bloodseeker with incredible force again¡ªit was like a godly mountain hade crashing down on Bloodseeker. Boom! Without question, Bloodseeker¡¯s body was once again knocked flying like a sandbag. ¡°Damn it!¡± Bloodseeker yelled in pain. After being struck by such an extreme force repeatedly, even he found it unbearable. He couldn¡¯t help but feel like vomiting blood. However, the God Devourer Ant didn¡¯t intend to hold back at all. Before Bloodseeker could properly stand again, its next attack had arrived! ¡°Pool of Blood Red!¡± Bloodseeker roared. Dense blood mist spread out and revolved around him, turning him into a pool of blood. Bloodseeker then quickly retreated. When the God Devourer Ant¡¯s attacknded on the pool of blood, missing its intended target, it felt like it had hit a swamp. Making use of this opportunity, Bloodseeker finally escaped from the God Devourer Ant¡¯s attack range. While panting heavily, he stared at the God Devourer Ant with a face filled with horror. ¡°What monster is this!?¡± Bloodseeker shouted in fear. If it weren¡¯t because of the blood-type secret art he possessed, he wouldn¡¯t have been able to escape from the God Devourer Ant¡¯s attack just now. He would have been punched into a puddle of meat and blood. Even so, forcefully casting the secret art had exhausted most of Bloodseeker¡¯s energy and blood essence, severely weakening him. His expression was no longer arrogant and wild like before. It was now covered with shock and fear; he did not even dare to get close to the God Devourer Ant. Still lying on the ground, Luo Xinghe loudly shouted, ¡°God Devourer, good work on beating him up!¡± Someone had finally stood up and took revenge for him. However, Luo Xinghe¡¯s wound¡ªwhich was about to finish healing¡ªsplit open again because his movement was toorge, causing him to suck in a breath of cold air violently. ¡°You better stay quiet for now.¡± Link shook his head when he saw Luo Xinghe¡¯s terrible state. He was a bit suspicious of how the [Silvermoon Sword Emperor] had survived in his previous life. Considering Luo Xinghe¡¯s reckless character, it was easy for Luo Xinghe to lose his life. Others knew how to avoid danger, but this fellow only thought about charging head-on. Luo Xinghe was considered lucky that he had stayed alive up to this point. ¡°Hehe! Lord, I have caused trouble for you...¡± When Luo Xinghe heard Link¡¯s words, he scratched his head, slightly embarrassed. ¡°Alright. After we have settled the matters here, I will bring you to a ce for you to train. You shall note out until you reach Stage Three,¡± said Link insipidly. Luo Xinghe¡¯s foundation is excellent; he has great potential. If I train him well, Luo Xinghe will definitely be one of the most powerful humans in the future. ¡°Kid, did you walk out from the City of the Undead just now?¡± At this moment, the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s three teams finally couldn¡¯t resist it and walked forth. After all, they had seen Link walk out from the City of the Undead just now! The first thing that came to their minds was that Link knew how to enter the City of the Undead. The three teams had already tried to enter earlier. Although the City of the Undead had appeared, it wasn¡¯t open yet. Hence, they were unable to enter. Link¡¯s appearance was an opportunity for them. When Link saw the three teams getting closer to him, he nced at them and insipidly said, ¡°Why, is there a problem?¡± ording to Link¡¯s knowledge, the ck Dragon Gang was also considered evil. The people in this gang all acted unscrupulously in order to achieve their goals. They didn¡¯t attack Luo Xinghe and the group just now because they wanted to sit back and reap the rewards. ¡°Tell us how to enter the City of the Undead. If not, don¡¯t me us for not being polite!¡± demanded ck Tiger, staring at Link with an unkind gaze. The scene of Bloodseeker being beaten up had shocked them. That monster-like creature could actually chase after a person¡ªwho was a Stage Three, Level 10 existence¡ªand beat him up. During normal times, ck Tiger definitely wouldn¡¯t dare to offend such an existence. However, the current matter was rted to the City of the Undead, an extremely important ce. As long as they could upy this ce, their situation would significantly improve in the future! The ck Dragon Gang¡¯s three teams were all tempted by the City of the Undead! Even though they knew that Link might not be someone they could easily offend, it wasn¡¯t enough for them to give up on the City of the Undead! This time, the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s three remaining teams were sent out. It meant that the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s strongest forces had all gathered here! With ourbined power, it is impossible that we can¡¯t control the situation here, right? ck Tiger was full of confidence. At the same time, a raging pressure emanated from his body. He wanted to scare Link. Although Fire Phoenix and Hidden Dragon didn¡¯t speak, they both stood behind ck Tiger, obviously stating their stance. Raging pressure simrly emanated from their bodies as well. It was like being hit by a hurricane, causing those oppressed to have difficulty breathing. Even Bloodseeker wouldn¡¯t dare to face thebined might of the three leaders, let alone a nameless person. The ck Dragon Gang was determined to obtain the City of the Undead at all costs! However, Link¡¯s face didn¡¯t change at all; he still had an uninterested expression as he spoke lightly. ¡°What if I reject?¡± ¡°Kid, you are seeking death!¡± ck Tiger was angered. This person actually dares to oppose us? Chapter 64: Start Battle, Two-Headed Chimera!

Chapter 64: Start Battle, Two-Headed Chimera!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios The atmosphere instantly became tense! The three leaders of the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s teams all stared at Link with unkind eyes, their auras cold and sinister. ¡°Someone said something like that to me before, but... he¡¯s dead now! Oh right... that person said he was from something called Alloy Team One.¡± Link didn¡¯t mind at all. He nced at them slightly, his expression insipid. ¡°You killed the members of the Alloy Team?¡± ¡°What an arrogant and wild brat! I shall teach you how to behave today!¡± ck Tiger roared furiously and directly grabbed at Link with hisrge hand. A gigantic ck-colored hand instantly swept towards Link. Its ws¡ªsimr to those of a tiger¡ªlooked extremely sharp. The ws looked like they could shatter stones and even tear apart mountains. In ck Tiger¡¯s hand, a ck-gold punching glove appeared. A cold light shed on the glove, making it look very fearsome as well. This glove was a powerful piece of Diamond-grade equipment, capable of shredding a person into pieces. A fierce glint shed in ck Tiger¡¯s eyes. I shall show this insolent fellow how strong I am. Upon sensing ck Tiger¡¯s ferocious aura, everyone¡¯s faces changed slightly. Is this the strength of one of the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s three team leaders? His aura is extremely terrifying; it isn¡¯t much weakerpared to Bloodseeker¡¯s aura! ng! The sound of metals shing reverberated! ck Tiger¡¯s attack was blocked by another figure¡ªthe God Devourer Ant. The ck-gold w and the God Devourer Ant¡¯s blue-gold carapace shed with one another, sending sparks flying. However, the w was unable to prate the God Devourer Ant¡¯s defense. ¡°Hm?¡± Bloodseeker¡¯s eyes constricted slightly. He recognized the God Devourer Ant; after all, it had just beaten him up quite badly. ¡°Zhi zhi!¡± God Devourer Ant deeply roared as if it were infuriated by ck Tiger¡¯s actions. A wild and violent aura burst out from the God Devourer Ant, and the aura¡¯s pressure rippled out like waves. God Devourer Ant punched with its fist. The entire sky seemed to shake as the vast energy seemingly prated through space. Its fist heavilynded on the ck-gold punching glove! Boom! A muffled bang sounded, and ck Tiger was sent flying, his face filled with shock. ¡°What terrifying strength is this!¡± ck Tiger was quite shaken. He had a [Fighter] profession, which focused on the Strength attribute. He was already a Stage Three, Level 8 existence, so his Strength attribute was very high. However, when faced with the God Devourer Ant, he knew that their strength was on two totally different levels. ¡°No wonder Bloodseeker lost! This monster¡¯s strength is indeed terrifying,¡± stated ck Tiger fearfully, but the fierce glint in his eyes didn¡¯t abate by even a little. ¡°Today, I shall see if your monster is mightier or if ck Tiger Team One is more powerful!¡± ¡°Small ones, attack!¡± ck Tiger roared and gave themand. The ck Tiger Team One members instantly responded. A series of wild and violent auras exuded from their bodies. They looked like a bunch of beasts attacking together and bursting out with their most wild and violent beast strength. Their full ck-gold armors on their bodies radiated a cold light. The rays of light fused and illuminated each ck Tiger team member. This caused their auras to be even more violent! This was ck Tiger Team One¡¯s joint skill. The strength of all 100 members of ck Tiger Team One would be enhanced and make them be even stronger! Being ck Tiger Team One¡¯s leader, ck Tiger was like a man-shaped ferocious beast now. His aura had be fierce and cruel. ¡°Kill!¡± ck Tiger roared, leading the charge towards the God Devourer Ant. At the same time, ck Tiger Team One¡¯s members¡ªalmost 100 Stage Two Fighters¡ªall surrounded and attacked the God Devourer Ant at the same time. They nned to use their powerful strength to kill the God Devourer Ant at this ce! Boom boom bang! A series of loud bangs sounded. The God Devourer Ant was instantly surrounded by almost 100 ck figures and was constantly attacked; attacksnded on its body non-stop. ¡°ROAR!¡± The God Devourer Ant was enraged and roared loudly, its aura bing even more immense. On its body, the blue-gold armor suddenly had gold-colored rune drawings appearing on it. These rune drawings seemed to hold great power and looked quite mysterious. The current God Devourer Ant seemed to transform into a gold-colored holy divine ant. The gold-colored runes had spread across its entire body, and its aura was extremely vast and deep now! Facing the ck Tiger team¡¯s joint attacks, the God Devourer Ant wasn¡¯t afraid at all. It actively charged towards them and valiantly fought against them! Under the enhancement of its holy golden armor, the God Devourer Ant seemed to have transformed into an invincible battle god. It fought against therge group of enemies all by itself! Momentarily, the battle seemed to have entered a crucial juncture. Fire Phoenix smiled charmingly and said, ¡°Hehe, that monster is under control now! You probably don¡¯t have any other tricks, right!? It¡¯s better if you just be obedient and listen to my words. Hand over the City of the Undead¡¯s secret, and who knows, my mood might be good. I might just let you go.¡± Fire Phoenix¡¯s figure was charming. Her red robe swayed, and her white skin seemed to be full of charm, making people sink into and offort. A red glow seemed to radiate and linger around her. It was like a fire of lust; it was as though it was going to ignite the desire and sin in a person¡¯s heart. Momentarily, the eyes of the students in the group were filled with infatuation. It looked as if they were going to sink into her charm. Seeing this scene, Fire Phoenix smiled even wider as if she wanted to hook out everyone¡¯s souls. But a glint shed in Link¡¯s eyes at this instant, and a sharp ray of light shot out from his eyes! ¡°Ah!¡± Fire Phoenix screamed and retreated backward, her eyes bleeding. This caused her to look extremely terrifying, simr to an evil ghost. She actually dared to y with the power of mental strength in front of Link! Wasn¡¯t this akin to a novice showing off their skill in front of a grandmaster? It should be known that Link¡¯s mental strength was extremely terrifying. His Intelligence attribute had already exceeded 10,000 points. Hence, his mental strength had far exceeded that of a normal Stage Three being. With Fire Phoenix¡¯s mental strength, she wasn¡¯t able to resist at all and was heavily injured! ¡°Damn it! I am going to kill you!¡± Fire Phoenix screeched and turned mad. A zing fire burst out of her body. The me was three feet long and revolved around her, making her look very ferocious! This terrifying me magic caused the surrounding temperature to increase rapidly. It was like they were in a furnace, about to be refined by the heat. ¡°Go to hell!¡± Angered, Fire Phoenix stimted the terrifying me magic, causing small fires to burn in the area as a side effect. It looked as if she was going to turn this entire district into ashes! The mes around her intensified even more and gathered into a gigantic fireball. It was as if a second sun had appeared in the sky and was going to explode at any second! Being Fire Phoenix Team One¡¯s leader and a Stage Three, Level 9 Mage, her erupting power was enough to wipe out all of the low-level creatures! As he tossed out the ck figure in his arms, Link¡¯s expression didn¡¯t change as he softly stated, ¡°Star Moon, I shall leave her to you!¡± The ck figure was Star Moon! ¡°Ah~ooh!¡± Star Moon gave off a child-like sound, its lively eyes staring intently at Fire Phoenix. There seemed to be excitement in its eyes. ¡°Hahaha, you want to stop me with just this little thing?¡± Fire Phoenix humphed coldly and abruptly controlled her magic to make the fireball descend. The pressure emanating from the fireball was extremely terrifying. ¡°Aooo!¡± Star Moon opened its small mouth wide, and a vast power suddenly emanated from its body. An aura that originated from ancient times instantly exploded from its body, causing this ce to be filled with unspeakable power. The heavens seemed to tremble as godly light endlessly appeared and shot up toward the sky! At this moment, Star Moon¡¯s body suddenly expanded. Star Moon actually turned into arge dragon-like creature with two heads. Having reached Stage Two, Star Moon¡¯s power had undergone earth-shaking changes. The Super God-grade Chimera had finally disyed how terrifying it was! Chapter 65: Joint-Attack?

Chapter 65: Joint-Attack?

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios The current Star Moon looked extremely awe-striking! One of Star Moon¡¯s two heads was filled with endless darkness, representing the abyss-like dark attribute. The other was a newly grown head and didn¡¯t have an attribute yet. However, its aura was still extremely frightening. Star Moon opened its mouth wide at this moment, and a potent suction came from its mouth. It was as if Star Moon was going to devour the stars, causing the hearts of all creatures to shiver! A violent wind roared, and Star Moon¡¯s aura even seemed to shake the heavens. It seemed as if the heavens were going to be devoured as well! Under Star Moon¡¯s suction force, the gigantic fireball started to shake. Finally, the fireball broke away from Fire Phoenix¡¯s control and dove into Star Moon¡¯s mouth. Star Moon hadpletely devoured the fireball. The fireball¡¯s terrifying might didn¡¯t explode as it was supposed to; instead, it was extinguished. ¡°Burp!¡± Star Moon burped as if it were quite satisfied with the meal; white smoke also seeped out from the corner of its mouth. ¡°How is this possible?¡± Seeing this scene, Fire Phoenix was horrified. She never expected that her me magic¡ªwhich could kill a Stage Three creature¡ªwould actually be devoured in one mouthful, not even causing the slightest bit of damage. ¡°I don¡¯t believe this! Sky Burning me!¡± Fire Phoenix attacked again. Powerful me magic erupted from her body, and a zing light shone on the earth, plunging the entire area into an endless sea of fire. Clusters of mes intertwined in the sky and finally condensed into a meteor-like form; then, this meteor suddenly fell from the sky. A gorgeous me meteor shower descended, wanting topletely obliterate this area bathed in mes. This was Fire Phoenix¡¯s strongest move. Even a Stage Three, Level 10 existence also wouldn¡¯t dare to take this attack head-on. However, this attack was useless in the face of Star Moon. Star Moon was the God of Divine Wrath¡¯s twin brother, the incarnation of destruction. It was able to devour all energy that existed in the world. Even these mes¡ªwhich could burn the sky¡ªweren¡¯t enough to defeat Star Moon. Star Moon opened its mouth again and let out a huge roar. The endless me meteor shower was sucked into its mouth. A dim light instantly started glowing around Star Moon¡¯s second head. A zing fire surrounded the second head while it absorbed this me energy. The mes were all extinguished not longerter, and everything returned to normal¡ªexcept for Star Moon¡¯s second head, which had transformed into a crimson me head. [Ding! Congrattions, your summoned creature¡ªChimera¡ªhas sessfully reached Stage Two, Level 9!] [Ding! Congrattions, your summoned creature¡ªChimera¡ªhas sessfully activated fire attribute skill: me Burst.] [me Burst]: Chimera can mobilize the power of fire and make the fire element fall into a violent state, causing 500% of Chimera¡¯s Intelligence attribute as fire damage. Cooldown time: 10 seconds! Upon hearing the sound in his mind, Link¡¯s mouth curled upward slightly. This is Star Moon¡¯s true power. As its strength increases, it will activate all kinds of attribute powers. As expected of a Super God-grade summoned creature! ... ¡°Damn it!¡± After seeing this, Fire Phoenix was extremely shocked. Her eyes were filled with horror! She never thought that this move¡ªwhich she was most proud of¡ªwould actually be useless against Star Moon. It had be Star Moon¡¯s nourishment and made the Chimera be stronger instead. This really angered her! Roar! At this moment, Star Moon attacked. zing fire attribute energy suddenly burst out of Star Moon¡¯s second head, carrying an aura of destruction as it directly shot toward Fire Phoenix. It was also a ball of me, but the aura was way more terrifying than the fireball Fire Phoenix created earlier. It was unstoppable! Star Moon used Fire Phoenix¡¯s own attack against her! As she watched this fireball get closer and closer, Fire Phoenix finally couldn¡¯t help but be scared. With her power, she had no way of resisting this attack; she would be burned into ashes. Right at this moment, Hidden Dragon¡ªwho had stood beside her silently¡ªmoved. Hidden Dragon was the representation of the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s strongest assassin de. He suddenly transformed into a stream of ck light as he swung his ck-gold dagger downwards. He had actually managed to cut the fireball apart! The mes dissipated, but the heatwave didn¡¯t. Hidden Dragon was forced to pull Fire Phoenix back with him, unable to get close. Star Moon¡¯s attack was too terrifying. It was like a Taboo-grade spell cast by a top-notch fire attribute Mage; it made others shake in fear. ¡°Fire Phoenix, that kid is the one who¡¯s controlling these monsters. As long as we kill him, there¡¯s nothing else to be afraid of.¡± Hidden Dragon spoke with a cold tone. He had already noticed that these strange creatures seemed like summoned creatures controlled by Link. Hence, Hidden Dragon guessed that Link was definitely quite a talented Summoner since he was able to summon such powerful creatures. However, he also knew that these summoned creatures would naturally disappear as long as the summoner was killed. Although summoners had highbat power, their power originated from their summoned creatures. As for the summoners themselves... they were very fragile. Hidden Dragon was confident that he would definitely kill Link with one strike as long as he could get close to Link. ¡°I see!¡± Fire Phoenix nodded, her heart feeling relieved. ¡°ck Tiger, don¡¯t waste time. Let¡¯s attack together and kill the kid! Fire Phoenix Team One, move out! Stop that monster!¡± Fire Phoenix instantly shouted out multiple orders. She instructed the 100 me mages under hermand to stop Star Moon from moving while she approached Link. ck Tiger did the same thing. He directly ditched the God Devourer Ant and turned into a stream of ck light, charging toward Link with a strong, violent force. As for Hidden Dragon, his body turned into a phantom and hid in the surrounding darkness, unable to be discovered by others. Since he was a Stage Three, Level 10 Assassin, Hidden Dragon was best at concealment and assassination. He would be able to kill his opponent with one move as long as he had the opportunity, not giving his opponent any chance of escape! Momentarily, the leaders of ck Dragon Gang¡¯s three strongest teams all moved toward Link. ¡°Lord, be careful!¡± Upon seeing this, Luo Xingyao and the others¡¯ expressions all changed drastically. They hurriedly came forward and prepared to help him. ¡°It¡¯s fine!¡± Link¡¯s voice sounded as he signaled them to back away. With their current strength, Link¡¯s subordinates weren¡¯t a match for these three leaders at all. Luo Xingyao clenched her teeth, her heart filled with helplessness. She never thought that she would actually be of no use during such a crisis. She never thought that she would be a burden on Link. Thus, this caused her desire for strength to reach an extreme. You guys came at just the right moment! As Link watched the three leaders approach, his mouth slightly curled up into a cold smile. He had intended to find someone to test the strength of his new profession. After all, it was a Super God-grade profession¡ª[Death Judge]! Boom! An intense aura of death violently erupted from Link¡¯s body. A hint of greyish-white shed in Link¡¯s originally deep, ck pupils, and his expression turned into one of indifference. nk! The [Undead Bone Sword] suddenly appeared and disyed its unique radiance. Since he didn¡¯t have enough time, Link hadn¡¯t used [Supreme Blessing] to enhance this sword. However, it was still an Epic-grade weapon, so it had extremely monstrous might. The sword¡¯s might could be seen from the battle with the Deathbone Swordsman earlier! Ever since Link gained the [Death Judge] profession, he had also be immune to death energy. Therefore, the [Undead Bone Sword]¡¯s negative effects didn¡¯t affect Link. Once Link held the sword in his hand, he could feel an endless stream of death energy entering his body. The energy caused his Strength attribute to be enhanced by 300%. At this moment, his Strength attribute had exceeded 10,000 points, not much lower than his Intelligence attribute. With his current strength, why would Link be afraid of some Stage Three beings? Hence, Link advanced forward and actively approached the three leaders instead of retreating. ¡°This kid is seeking death!¡± ck Tiger smiled viciously. In his eyes, a fragile summoner that actually dared to fight them personally was the same as seeking death. Other things aside, without their summoned creatures, Summoners were the weakest amongst all the other professions. A Summoner fighting head-on with a Fighter? The oue was obvious! However, would things really turn out as ck Tiger assumed they would? Chapter 66: One Against Three!

Chapter 66: One Against Three!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios ¡°Die!¡± With cold eyes, ck Tiger struck with violent force. As ck Tiger punched out with his ck-gold glove, the punch¡¯s energy transformed into a ferocious ck tiger in front of him and charged towards Link with an unstoppable force! As a Stage Three, Level 9 Gold-grade Fighter, ck Tiger had very high Strength. With the Diamond-grade ck-gold glove¡ªwhich Doctor Ghost had meticulously crafted¡ªck Tiger¡¯s strength was greatly enhanced. Currently, he was like a ferocious tiger charging down a mountain toward its prey. The might of this punch was enough to shatter a tall building! When Link saw the approaching punch, his eyes focused as he violently raised the bone sword. He then heavily swung the sword at ck Tiger. Dong! A loud collision sounded! ck Tiger¡¯s body was knocked away like a broken sandbag, tumbling a few times in the air before smashing into the ground heavily. ¡°How is this possible; how can a summoner be so strong?¡± ck Tiger found it incredulous, and horror filled his eyes. When he shed with Link, he personally felt Link¡¯s strength. It was like a huge mountain hade crashing down on him¡ªunblockable. Even though ck Tiger¡¯s Strength attribute had exceeded 1,000 points, he wasn¡¯t able to resist even one strike from Link; he was instantly defeated. Link¡¯s strength was even more terrifying than that of the God Devourer Ant! ¡°Pu!¡± ck Tiger vomited arge mouthful of blood, which stained his robe red. The blood in his body was in a turbulent state. Due to his carelessness, ck Tiger actually suffered a huge loss and was almost heavily injured. The others around them were all astonished when they saw this scene, their hearts shaking. They also didn¡¯t know that Link had actually be so strong that even ck Tiger wasn¡¯t his match! ¡°As expected of the Lord; he¡¯s indeed awesome!¡± Luo Xinghe swallowed a mouth of saliva, his eyes filled with shock and envy. He realized that the gap between Link and them was bing even wider than before. ¡°Take this! Lava Cannonball!¡± Fire Phoenix shouted, using up all of her me magic. She turned it into a curtain of zing fire that dropped toward Link! In the sky, zing mes suddenly fell, condensed into a furnace of mes, and sank to the ground. Peng peng peng! Following a series of explosive sounds, sparks from flint were ejected from the me furnace. These sparks flew toward the surroundings as if they were going to turn this area into a realm of endless mes! The zing heat momentarily scorched thend, causing even the air to distort. This was a Stage Three, Level 9 fire attribute Mage¡¯s strongest spell; it was enough to turn this piece ofnd into ashes! Casting this all-out,rge-scale attack, Fire Phoenix didn¡¯t give Link the chance to get close. She nned to kill him in this ce. ¡°Is there any use?¡± Link smiled coldly, and he violently charged towards the sea of fire like a holy knight. [Holy Charge] Holy light shed, enhancing Link¡¯s speed greatly. It was as if he had be a sharp sword as he abruptly pierced through the endless sea of fire. ¡°You...¡± Upon seeing Link suddenly appear in front of her, Fire Phoenix¡¯s pupils constricted slightly. She never thought that Link could actually charge through the sea of fire without taking any damage! ¡°Death Shatter!¡± Link coldly humphed once as the [Undead Bone Sword] in his hand radiated a ck light. He violently swung the sword forward. The earth instantly started to tremble, and immense sword energy flew out in the shape of a half-crescent and headed for Fire Phoenix. In the wake of the sword energy, the earth crumbled, and a fissure formed. The attack¡¯s might was terrifying. This was the Deathbone Swordsman¡¯s skill, but Link was also able to use it now. In his hands, this skill¡¯s power was even more tremendous. This was because Link had gained the [Death Judge]¡¯s buff, which granted him even better control of death energy than the Deathbone Swordsman. Even a Stage Three being would have difficulty defending against this attack. As expected, upon sensing how terrifying this sword energy was, horror filled Fire Phoenix¡¯s eyes. She could sense death approaching her. It was as if the God of Death waved its scythe and was about to take her life! ¡°me Crystal Shield!¡± Fire Phoenix screamed and mobilized the endless mes to fuse and form a crystal-like me shield in front of her. She attempted to block this strike with all her strength. Crack! But a clear cracking sound reverberated. Everything crumbled in the face of the death sword energy¡¯s attack! The me crystal shield burst into pieces of fire crystals, which scattered everywhere. As for Fire Phoenix, she was knocked flying by the sword energy. Her whole body was covered in blood, making her look quite pathetic. A Stage Three, Level 9 Mage was defeated too! This existence was defeated by a Stage Two, Level 9 Summoner. Nobody would believe this, even if word of this matter spread. However, this happened in front of everybody¡¯s eyes. It forced everyone who saw this scene to believe that this had truly happened. However, the space behind Link rippled right at this moment. Space distorted and formed a whirlpool. Then, a dark figure gradually floated out from the whirlpool. It was a phantom-like figure; its whereabouts were untraceable, making it impossible for others to predict how the figure appeared. This was Hidden Dragon, a top-notch assassin known as Assassin de! Hidden Dragon had crept behind Link at this instant, about to deal his fatal blow. A cold glint shed on the dark-gold dagger. The Diamond-grade dagger was like a reaper in the darkness, easily able to take away others¡¯ lives. ¡°Die!¡± Hidden Dragon was very fast. He moved like a shing light, not giving anyone a chance to react. Pu chi! The dagger directly stabbed into Link¡¯s body, and violent energy burst out from it, wanting to turn Link¡¯s body into minced meat. The light in Hidden Dragon¡¯s eyes glowed brightly. In his eyes, all those hit by his dagger would definitely die. So far, nobody had been able to survive his assassinations. However, what happened next caused Hidden Dragon to be horrified and the hair on his body to stand on end. Not a single drop of blood actually leaked out from the wound on Link¡¯s body. Link¡¯s body seemed to turn into a phantom instead, making this fatal strike seemingly miss! This was the [Indestructible Death Body]. He had this ability ever since he became a [Death Judge]. Not only did his Strength attribute increase greatly, but even his defense and Constitution had been enhanced significantly. One of the abilities Link gained from [Indestructible Death Body] was immunity to physical attacks! No matter how powerful Hidden Dragon¡¯s concealment abilities were or how powerful his attack was, Link was dismissive of him. Since he was immune to physical attacks, he wouldn¡¯t suffer a single injury even if he stood here and let Hidden Dragon attack him as much as he wanted! This was the power of a Super God-grade profession, which far surpassed ordinary professions from as early as the foundation stage. Those of ordinary professions simply weren¡¯t able to catch up to those with Super God-grade professions at all. ¡°What?¡± Hidden Dragon was shocked. The top-notch assassin, known as Assassin de, panicked. He had never seen a human this terrifying¡ªLink was also immune to physical attacks! How am I supposed to fight such a person? Indeed, Hidden Dragon had no way of fighting Link! Link moved the bone sword in circles through the air and heavily swung it at Hidden Dragon. ng! The [Undead Bone Sword] and the [ck Dragon Dagger] collided, giving off a loud sound. Hidden Dragon felt his arm go numb as his veins popped out; he almost dropped the ck Dragon Dagger because of the vibration. Even so, the resulting impact sent him flying a few hundred steps back before he could stop himself. Upon seeing this, the entire ce fell dead silent. Everyone focused their gazes on the figure in the center of the battlefield. The robe this figure wore fluttered casually, as it had before. However, it gave them an unspeakable sense of shock and awe. Who would have ever thought that a person¡ªonly a Stage Two, Level 9 existence¡ªcould actually fight head-on with Stage Three beings, who were one whole stage higher than them? Furthermore, Link¡¯s opponents were the leaders of the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s three strongest teams¡ªwho had ganged up to fight against him! Chapter 67: Death Judgment!

Chapter 67: Death Judgment!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Puff puff! On the battlefield, heavy breathing sounds could be heard. The three leaders stood side by side, their eyes filled with fear. They had discovered how tough Link was; he wasn¡¯t someone they could easily defeat! If they were slightly careless, they might die here. ¡°Kid, you are the most talented person I have ever seen! But in the end, the victor is still the ck Dragon Gang. This ce shall be your cemetery!¡± said Hidden Dragon with sinister eyes, his tone cold. ¡°Hm?¡± The light in Link¡¯s eyes focused when he sensed something amiss. Then, frightening auras seemed to rise from the bodies of the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s three team leaders as if terrifying energy was gathering in them. ¡°ck Tiger, Fire Phoenix! Use the killing move!¡± shouted Hidden Dragon, suddenly tossing out the ck Dragon Dagger in his hand. ck light then erupted from the dagger! Afterward, Hidden Dragon suddenly spewed a mouthful of blood and sprinkled it on the ck Dragon Dagger, making the light even brighter and denser! Seeing this, the other two leaders both clenched their teeth. ck Tiger then removed his ck-gold glove. However, the glove was connected to his arm, so he had to tear off his entire arm. Instantly, blood poured from the wound, and his face turned pale. But ck Tiger¡¯s expression was still as fierce and wild as usual as he violently tossed out the glove. As for Fire Phoenix, she extracted a fire-red staff from her waist rib. The surface of the staff was covered in blood. This staff was the source of Fire Phoenix¡¯s power. It was embedded in her body, enhancing her magical energy. Being one of the top factions in the apocalypse¡¯ster stages, not only did the ck Dragon Gang depend on their countless pieces of high-level equipment, but they also fused themselves with their equipment. ck Dragon Gang members imnted their weapons into their body structure to maximize their weapons¡¯ power. This was an extremely cruel act that required the user to endure unspeakable pain. It might even cause the weapon¡¯s power to run riot, making the user explode and die. However, once it seeded, the weapon¡ªwhich was nurtured with blood¡ªcould burst out with endless power. At this moment, the three leaders had all taken out their life-linked weapons. It looked as if they were going to use their trump cards! Chi! Three rays of lights gathered and fused at an amazing speed. These pieces of equipment were all made by Doctor Ghost. Their source was the same, and their power simr, so they naturally were able to merge with one another. Boom! A godly presence shook thend, and a radiant light appeared. Lastly, the radiant light condensed into a gigantic energy cannon. This extremely radiant energy cannon was about 10 meters long. On the surface, it was covered with strange runic drawings¡ªwhich had all lit up¡ªcausing the cannon to look even more mighty. The ck Dragon Gang¡¯s three team leaders stood in front and behind the cannon, using their strength to support the energy cannon and aim it at Link. ¡°Kid, this is Doctor Ghost¡¯s news creation. I never thought that we would have to use it on you; this is really a waste of this treasure. However, it¡¯s alright! As long as you are dead, the City of the Undead shall belong to the ck Dragon Gang! By then, Doctor Ghost will definitely grant us even stronger weapons!¡± ck Tiger smiled viciously. Blood still spewed from his mouth, making him look extremely savage and vicious. When he saw the energy cannon that had a terrifying aura, graveness shed in Link¡¯s eyes. Link could sense how terrifying this energy cannon was; it had already exceeded an Epic-grade weapon and was on par with a Legend-grade weapon. Once the energy within the cannon burst out, more than half of Dragon City would be wiped out! The energy within the cannon was also very unusual. Link suspected that even his [Indestructible Death Body] might not be able to defend him from it. Link seemed to have overreached this time! ¡°It¡¯s over! Quantum Bomb!¡± Hidden Dragon shouted and violently pressed the cannon¡¯s trigger, causing terrifying energy to gather at the cannon muzzle. Brilliant rays of light intertwined and condensed at the muzzle. The rays of light suddenly turned into arge quantum bomb, which burst out from the cannon. A brilliant energy beam instantly shot out, cutting across the ground and sting towards Link. In its path, everything was destroyed. Not even small rocks were left. Everything was disintegrated into ashes. This attack would even be able to destroy a Stage Four creature. ¡°Battle!¡± Link let out a long roar; his heart was fearless and his battle spirit high. He wanted to fight everything head-on! ¡°Yuna!¡± Link called loudly. Unlimited death energy exploded from the [Undead Bone Sword] in his hand, causing his aura to be even colder. At the side, Yuna instantly understood Link¡¯s order and directly cast [Holy Light Beam] on Link. A golden beam of lightnded on Link, granting him two seconds of invincibility! It was enough for Link to counterattack! ¡°Death Judgment!¡± Link¡¯s eyes turned cold as he stared with a look of death. He seemingly transformed into a god of death¡¯s incarnation that looked upon other beings with contempt! At this moment, Link violently shed with the [Undead Bone Sword], mobilizing the endless death energy in the sword. This caused the heavens to lose color and thend to cave in. The death energy¡ªwhich was enhanced by 10,000%¡ªexploded out as if the door to the death realm had been opened. It seemed like death had enveloped the whole world. A greyish-ck figure appeared and floated in front of Link. This figure was 30 feet tall and covered in death energy. It also wielded a broadsword condensed from death energy. This phantom figure moved in unison with Link and swung its death sword downward as well. This strike seemed to split heaven and earth into two parts. A gigantic wave of death sword energy cut through the sky and collided with the thick energy beam, causing awe-inspiring power to erupt. Boom boom boom! The earth trembled and started to copse as if it couldn¡¯t bear this power, forming numerous fissures. Boom! All the surrounding tall buildings copsed because of the shockwave. Rubble was sent flying, which then disintegrated into ashes as well. The force of this power was really too terrifying. It was like a nuclear bomb had exploded, seemingly about to turn this entire ce into ruins. Even though Yang Xuerou and the others had retreated by a few thousand meters, their hearts couldn¡¯t help but shudder. They were also terrified, causing them to copse to the ground weakly. As for the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s three team leaders¡ªwho were still at the center of the battlefield¡ªthey had to bear the most petrifying pressure. Their pupils widened as they watched the energy beam¡ªwhich could destroy a Stage Four being¡ªget cut in half by the phantom figure¡¯s sword. The remaining death sword energy also didn¡¯t stop. Instead, it continued to sh towards the three of them. Puchi! The sound of bodies exploding reverberated. In the end, the trio¡ªwho was known as the leaders of ck Dragon¡¯s three strongest teams¡ªwasn¡¯t able to resist the death sword¡¯s might and was directly crushed into a cloud of blood. The cloud of blood then dissipated into the surroundings. Even the Legend-grade energy cannon was forcefully cut apart into pieces and exploded. The battle was finally over. Only Link was still standing on the battlefield, but his breathing also was quite heavy. Looking at the chaotic battlefield, Link breathed roughly. If it weren¡¯t for the two seconds of invincibility, even Link mightn¡¯t have been able to withstand such power. The power would¡¯ve torn apart his body... [Death Judgment] is indeed terrifying! As expected of the God of Death¡¯s power, it far exceeds my current stage. [Death Judgment]¡¯s power is enough to fight against Stage Four beings. Chapter 68: Deterrence, Submit!

Chapter 68: Deterrence, Submit!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Stage Four beings were far more powerful than Stage Three existences. There existed a fissure between these two stages, and it wasn¡¯t easily crossable. In this apocalyptic world were countless creatures below Stage Four. Due to the changes in the world¡¯s order, the human race forcefully reversed their way of living to adapt to the new order¡ªwhere the strong survived, and the weak died. Rather than saying that this was an apocalyptic world, it was more like an apocalyptic game. In this game, everyone was split into different levels. Stage One to Three existences were like yers who had just entered the game and were starting to learn about the game. A lot of humans and other creatures were at this stage. They increased their strength by leveling up. They surpassed a normal human¡¯s limits, gaining strength that allowed them to shatter boulders and break mountains. However, this level of strength was still way too little. Beings below Stage Four were just cannon fodder and ants in [Doomsday Online]. Only when one reached Stage Four would they be able to establish a weak foothold in the apocalyptic world. Stage Three to Stage Four was when ordinary bodies changed into spiritual bodies. This allowed beings to control the strength within their bodies more easily; they could even use the different energies in the outside world to strengthen themselves. But, the path to Stage Four was extremely difficult. Few were able to reach it. Once they did, their future achievements would definitely be quite good! They would also be famous in their area! To evolve even further, one had to reach Stage Seven and beyond. That was a whole new realm! ... As of now, with [Death Judge]¡¯s enhancement, Link¡¯s strength had truly increased significantly. Even though he was only Stage Two, he was able to fight against a Stage Four existence. This was enough to shock the world! Of course, it was a different case for the Necromancer that Link killed. ording to logic, Necromancers should be top-notch existences amongst Stage Four beings! This was because each of them was akin to an army! The Necromancers¡¯ powerful Undead Magic wasn¡¯t something ordinary people could fight against! ording to what Link knew, the Temple of Light had paid a heavy price to kill the Necromancer in his previous life. They lost numerous powerful humans, including Stage Four ones, in order to kill it. A Necromancer¡¯s power was enough to instill fear in all those who knew of it! However, it was a pity that the Necromancer met Link this time! Having his past life¡¯s experiences, Link already knew of the Necromancer¡¯s weakness beforehand. Hence, he was able to kill it easily. If the Necromancer had met people other than Link, it would have killed them easily! After all, Stage Four beings weren¡¯t existences that anyone could offend! If the Necromancer were able to cast its spells freely, its terrifying power would definitely sweep through Dragon City and turn the city into a realm of death. In such a situation, Link might¡¯ve just turned around and left if it were another type of Stage Four Undead. However, Link was now confident that he could fight against Stage Four existences in general. [Great Void Taboo Master] and [Death Judge]¡¯s enhancements would be Link¡¯s important support when climbing to the peak in this lifetime. ... Link turned his eyes toward the members of ck Dragon Gang¡¯s three teams. Since their leaders had passed away, these few hundred Stage Two humans all shivered in their hearts. They panicked, unable to even think about resisting. Even their three leaders¡ªwho were Stage Three existences¡ªwere killed by Link. It was really shocking to them. Even though they were many in number, they didn¡¯t dare to move. The shock and fear Link brought to them was too great; hence, they were all terrified now. Link was a ruthless person who didn¡¯t hesitate to kill. If they angered him, they would probably end up dead! What¡¯s more, the two fierce monsters¡ªGod Devourer and Star Moon¡ªwere nearby and staring at them. These two monsters were beings as strong as their leaders; hence, they were enough to scare them sh*tless. ¡°Submit or die!¡± stated Link lightly. He seemed like a god looking down on mortals casually, causing the members of the three teams to tremble all over. Link¡¯s piercing killing intent seemed to prate their souls, making none of them dare to resist. Although the three teams were the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s most powerful attacking force, they had no choice but to submit when faced with the threat of death! Instantly, all of them kneeled down and chose to submit to Link. Seeing this, Link nodded in satisfaction. Although he wasn¡¯t a person who would easily kill others for small issues, he didn¡¯t show any mercy to enemies either. In the apocalyptic world, being merciful to enemies was the same as being cruel to oneself. Link had seen lots of simr situations. ¡°Xinghe, control these people. If they dare to resist, kill them without mercy!¡± Link ordered. His tone was cold like frost. His tone felt like des were going to cut them. ¡°Yes!¡± shouted Luo Xinghe in reply and started to integrate the members of the three teams. Even though they would be able to tear him apart if they rioted, Luo Xinghe was still unafraid. At the side, God Devourer continued to stare at them while exuding a violent aura, causing none of them to dare to do anything wrong. If they tried to do so, only destruction awaited them. Amongst these people, none of them was able to withstand a single blow from the God Devourer Ant. Their bodies would instantly burst apart. Under the deterrence of absolute strength, the members of the three teams quickly came under Link¡¯s control. Not far away, a figure¡ªshrouded in a blood mist¡ªwatched from a distance, not daring toe close! It was Bloodseeker, a Stage Three, Level 10 being! After seeing what just happened, Bloodseeker¡¯s entire body violently trembled as fear flickered in his eyes. He never thought that this ordinary-looking Link¡ªwho was only a Stage Two existence¡ªcould actually kill the three leaders and capture all the members of the three teams at the same time! How shocking was this? Previously, Bloodseeker even wanted to suck Link dry of his blood essence. He probably didn¡¯t know how to write the word ¡®die¡¯ at that moment in time! Bloodseeker was scared. Cold sweat uncontrobly dripped down his forehead as his heart throbbed violently. Furthermore, Bloodseeker suddenly felt lucky that Link wasn¡¯t the one who battled him just now. If it had been Link fighting him, Bloodseeker would¡¯ve been one of the corpses lying on the ground! Unable to control the fear in his heart, Bloodseeker didn¡¯t dare to stay. He turned around and ran, turning into a ray of blood-red light as he fled towards the horizon. ¡°After I sessfully cultivate the Blood Demon Spell, I wille back and take revenge!¡± Bloodseeker¡¯s will was shaken; he had discovered that the outside world was too terrifying¡ªpowerful humans and monsters appeared endlessly. It was too dangerous. He decided that it was better to hide and finish practicing his blood spells first beforeing out to cause trouble again. Bloodseeker even secretly decided to move house immediately after he returned to his base. He decided to bring the Blood Demon Altar and his other resources with him and go somewhere else... He was afraid that Link mighte looking for him. Link was an extremely fierce existence; Bloodseeker couldn¡¯t afford to offend him! Bloodseeker escaped very swiftly; he even abandoned the members of his Blood Fiend Gang. He was afraid that the God of Death¡¯s scythe woulde swinging towards him the next moment if he didn¡¯t escape fast enough. ¡°Bloodseeker... escaped?¡± As they watched Bloodseeker escape, Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyao¡¯s eyes rippled. They never thought that the arrogant Bloodseeker¡ªa demon who had reaped countless lives¡ªwould actually run away without a fight... This was really unexpected! ¡°Lord, shall we chase after him?¡± Luo Xinghe asked. While watching his enemy run away, Luo Xinghe felt quite ufortable in his heart. Although the two siblings wished to take revenge, they wished to do it personally. ¡°No need to bother about him!¡± Link shook his head slightly. He knew long ago that Bloodseeker would escape, but Link didn¡¯t bother about dealing with him. Bloodseeker¡¯s strength wasn¡¯t enough to cause any trouble for him; Link had no need to be afraid of him. Chapter 69: Legend-Grade Material!

Chapter 69: Legend-Grade Material!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Link had also considered one other thing¡ªthere was a use in leaving Bloodseeker alive. After all, leaving Bloodseeker alive would motivate Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyao. The power of hatred was the best way to arouse a person¡¯s potential; it might even help them break through their limits. In Link¡¯s previous life, Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyao still reached the peak, even without his help. This was enough to show how much potential they had. Letting the two siblings settle Bloodseeker themselves would help them to loosen the shackles in their hearts. If there were shackles in one¡¯s heart, one¡¯s future would be affected. This was very taboo! ¡°Yes, Lord!¡± Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyao nodded, the light in their eyes shining. They understood Link¡¯s intentions. This also caused their desire for strength to intensify even more! ¡°I shall bring you guys to a good ceter,¡± said Link insipidly. He then turned his gaze toward the ground. He was looking at the spot where the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s three team leaders were killed. ording to logic, in the apocalyptic world, humans were the yers of a game. Once they were killed, all the items in their storage space would drop out. Unfortunately, [Death Judgment]¡¯s power was too terrifying. It was enough to crush everything into dust. Not even the three team leaders¡¯ corpses were left behind. But a few glittering crystal-like fragments were scattered on the ground. They were pieces of the Legend-grade energy cannon. Although it had been cut in halves, it wasn¡¯t pulverized. ¡°As expected of a Legend-grade weapon. What a pity.¡± Link shook his head. If he knew this would happen, he would have controlled the attack¡¯s might. If he had done so, he might¡¯ve gained this Legend-grade weapon. Although the energy cannon was damaged, its materials were still usable. Link swept his hand, sweeping the fragments into his arms. At the same time, a wave of information appeared in his mind. [ck-Gold Fragment] Grade: Legend Attribute: Defense +1,000 Introduction: Sturdy ck-gold fragment that is an excellent forging material. It can be used to craft equipment or build city walls. Upon reading the information, Link was delighted. He had just started preparing to build a base, but he didn¡¯t expect excellent construction materials to appear right in front of him at this period of time. This was akin to someone giving him a pillow right when he wanted to sleep. It should be known that one had to meet three unavoidable conditions when they wanted to build a base: City Building Token, construction materials, and a Craftsman! All three factors had to be present! The City Building Token was the foundation. Only with this token would the base be acknowledged by heaven and earth. Only then would godlyw descend upon the base, making it a home city. When Link cleared the Sin Realm, he had obtained a City Building Token! Hence, he had to consider the base¡¯s construction materials next. Construction materials were important when constructing bases. The better the material, the sturdier the base¡¯s defense. The base¡¯s defense could be so sturdy that even the monster siege¡ªwhich was arriving soon¡ªwouldn¡¯t be able to break through the base¡¯s city walls. At the store inside the City of the Undead, Link had seen many different construction materials. However, Link required arge number of them, so they weren¡¯t in his consideration for now. However, these ck-gold fragments were considered perfect construction materials since they could provide high defense capabilities for the base. With these ck-gold fragments, Link was confident in building an indestructible home city. Since he now had suitable construction materials, the next factor to consider was the Craftsman. A Craftsman was the soul during the base¡¯s construction¡ªthey were in charge of the construction and structuring! [Craftsman] was a special lifestyle profession. Not only were those of this profession capable of crafting equipment, but they could also build city gates, city walls, and even a whole city! It should be known that a base wasn¡¯t something that any person could build. Exclusive skills and abilities were required to build a powerful home city! ording to Link¡¯s memories of his previous life, the Human Alliance¡¯s five home cities¡ªwhich deterred other races¡ªwere all built by Epic-grade Craftsmen. These five home cities were indestructible and were able to continue standing in a chaotic world where monsters and dark creatures ran rampant. The stronger a Craftsman¡¯s capabilities, the more they could enhance a home city, making the home city even stronger. This was why Link sent Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyao to bring over the students from Dragon City No.1 Middle School. This was because he remembered that there was a future Craftsman amongst them! This person was also somebody Link knew. ¡°Xingyao, bring the students here,¡±manded Link insipidly. Luo Xingyao quickly acted and brought the surviving students over. ¡°Boss Link, I have finally seen you again!¡± An extremely delighted voice sounded. A chubby person then walked out from the group of students, looking at Link joyfully. ¡°Fatty, you are indeed still alive!¡± Upon seeing this person, a slight smile appeared on Link¡¯s face. This fatty was Link¡¯s buddy, who had yed with him since they were young till now. Fatty¡¯s actual name was Lu Da, and he imed to be the descendant of Lu Ban1. He normally liked to y with all kinds of weird and strange objects. Hence, he was looked down upon by many. Link was the only person he liked to y with. When the apocalypse descended, Link didn¡¯t see him. Hence, Link wasn¡¯t able to bring Lu Da out with him. But Link knew that Lu Da wasn¡¯t a person who would die easily. Lu Da had even survived until the apocalypse¡¯ster stages. ording to Link¡¯s memories of his previous life, Fatty Lu Da became the apprentice of an Epic-grade Craftsman, taking his interest to the extreme. Fatty had taken part in the construction of all five main home cities. ¡°Boss Link, you are too strong!¡± Fatty was full of surprise and envy. He also didn¡¯t expect that the originally ordinary Link would be such a powerful being when the apocalypse descended. Link chatted with Fatty for a while before asking, ¡°Oh, right! Fatty, have you obtained a profession?¡± He could see that Lu Da was still a normal person since he didn¡¯t have any aura of power in him. He was considered lucky to stay alive up to this point. ¡°Hehe. Boss, not yet...¡± Fatty embarrassingly touched the back of his head, feeling slightly embarrassed. When the apocalypse came, he was hiding in some unknown ce and sleeping. He barely avoided the Undead creatures¡¯ rampage. After he woke up, the entire Dragon City No.1 Middle School had been cleared by Link once, leaving only devastation. Not a single creature could be seen. Although Lu Da had peacefully survived until now, he hadn¡¯t killed a single Undead creature. Naturally, he wasn¡¯t able to level up. ¡°But the System said that I was too weak, so it gave me this! Boss, look!¡± After saying this, Fatty told out a scroll from his pocket. It was a Skill Scroll! [Strike While the Iron Is Hot] Grade: Silver Type: Crafting skill Introduction: The user can strike the iron while it is hot and use it to forge or refine equipment (Silver-grade) to improve the equipment¡¯s Strength, Defense, and Health attributes by +10. ... Upon seeing the skill book in Fatty¡¯s hand, the corners of Link¡¯s mouth twitched. This Fatty is really able to pass the time doing nothing. It is already the fifth day of the apocalypse, yet Fatty only gained a crafting skill book. Furthermore, it is only Silver-grade. But Link knew that not everyone could sessfully obtain a battle-type profession. Many obtained lifestyle professions, but they also had very strong capabilities. For example, those of the [Foodie] profession could make all kinds of unprecedented delicacies that could even provide buffs to the consumer. Craftsmen could craft equipment and enhance equipment¡¯s attributes. Doctor Ghost was a Myth-grade Craftsman, and he could even build a Legend-grade energy cannon now. In theter stages of the apocalypse, he even crafted Myth-grade equipment. Just this aplishment was enough to show his capability. There were also the Enchantment Masters, who could enchant and imbue weapons with all kinds of attributes. The [Dposer] profession could dpose equipment into materials... and so on. As for Lu Da? He was one of these types of people. Chapter 70: Master Lu Ban!

Chapter 70: Master Lu Ban!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Lifestyle professions were simr to battle professions. As long as a person learned an exclusive lifestyle skill, they would be able to transfer into the corresponding lifestyle profession. The higher the skill¡¯s grade, the higher the corresponding profession¡¯s grade. A Silver-grade crafting skill could only create a Silver-grade Craftsman. ¡°Fatty, give me your skill book!¡± ordered Link. The light in his eyes was deep. ¡°Okay!¡± Without any hesitation, Fatty directly handed the Skill Scroll to Link. While holding the Skill Scroll, Link muttered a few words. Radiant light then erupted from his body! ¡°[Supreme Blessing]!¡± Following Link¡¯s words, a burst of brilliant light appeared as well. From some unknown ce, strange energy descended upon the scroll, making it colorful and majestic. ¡°Blessing seeded!¡± In just a short while, the ordinary scroll became mysterious-looking. It was filled with a sense of ancientness and extraordinariness. ¡°Fatty, take it.¡± After saying this, Link tossed the scroll over. ¡°Boss, slower.¡± Fatty caught the scroll in a fluster. But when he saw the attributes of the scroll, he was dazed. [Heavenly Workmanship] Grade: Legend Type: Crafting skill Introduction: The user will have heavenly forging skills that can be used to forge equipment (Epic-grade). The user can also refine equipment and increase the equipment¡¯s Strength, Defense, and Health attributes by an extremely high +1,000 points each! Note: The sess rate of forging equipment below the Legend-grade is 100%, the sess rate of forging Legend-grade equipment is 70%, and the sess rate of forging equipment above Legend-grade is 30%! It was actually a Legend-grade crafting skill! Lu Da¡¯s body trembled violently. Although he hadn¡¯t figured out the rules of this game-like world, he knew how valuable Legend-grade items were. If news of this scroll¡¯s existence circted, it would cause an uproar in the entire Dragon City! It should be known that even in the apocalypse¡¯ster stages, being an Epic-grade Craftsman was enough for one to receive many people¡¯s respect and admiration. They would also be warmly invited by countless major factions and treated like esteemed guests. The power of a Legend-grade Craftsman¡¯s name alone was akin to those of topbat masters. After all, topbat masters weren¡¯t hard to find. However, top Craftsmen were very rare. Which faction didn¡¯t want to have numerous pieces of equipment? Which faction wouldn¡¯t want their equipment to obtain perfect enhancements? It should be known that, besides the very low chance of equipment dropping from monsters, one could only obtain equipment from Craftsmen. In the apocalyptic world, Craftsmen were extremely sought-after people. The reason the ck Dragon Gang could be a top faction in the apocalypse¡¯ster stages and few dared to offend it was that they had a Myth-grade Craftsman. Just the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s equipment alone was enough to overpower most of the other top factions. From this, one could see how terrifying a top Craftsman¡¯s influence was. And Lu Da actually obtained a Legend-grade crafting skill now! This was something that he didn¡¯t even dare to dream about. ¡°Boss Link, this...¡± Fatty¡¯s body trembled, and even his voice turned hoarse. He was obviously unable to believe his eyes. He never thought that Link would give him such a big surprise. ¡°Fatty, learn it well. I still need you to help me build the base.¡± Link smiled insipidly as he patted Fatty on the shoulder. The rtionship between Fatty and him was difficult to express in words. In his previous life, Link didn¡¯t have the capability to help Fatty. They could only go their separate ways and seek ways to survive individually. However, things were different this lifetime. Since Link had been reborn, he decided that he would definitely go against fate and change his life this time. Furthermore, helping Fatty was also helping himself. Link also didn¡¯t spend much effort, not to mention that the scroll was useless to him. Link didn¡¯t n on spendingrge amounts of time on crafting. With his SSS-grade talent, it wasn¡¯t possible for him tock top-grade equipment, okay? Fatty liked to y with this kind of stuff in the first ce, so giving this Legend-grade crafting skill to him might bring unexpected results! ¡°I will definitely help you in any way I can!¡± Fatty sucked in air deeply, a light shing in his eyes. He never thought that Link would actually be willing to give him a Legend-grade crafting skill book. This was like a kind of mission, and a kind of trust even more. Without any hesitation, Fatty directly learned this Legend-grade crafting skill book. Light shed around his body, making his aura intensify. At the same time, his aura also seemed to undergo a change.It became more mysterious and unpredictable¡ªdeep and ancient like the masters of ancient times. ¡°Fatty, how is it?¡± Seeing this, Link was quite curious too. What kind of profession will Fatty obtain? ¡°Boss, I have sessfully obtained a profession!¡± Fatty¡¯s face showed delight. Then, he disyed his attribute screen. Link took a look, and his eyebrows rose high. Fatty Lu Da¡¯s profession was pretty ironic¡ª[Master Lu Ban] (Legend-grade) Could it be that Fatty is really Lu Ban¡¯s descendant? Is that why even his profession is called [Master Lu Ban]? ¡°Hehe, Boss, this...¡± Fatty touched his head, slightly embarrassed. He never expected that he would actually obtain such a profession either. Isn¡¯t this akin to upying my ancestor¡¯s name? ¡°Maybe your ancestor will also be happy if he knew of this in the underworld. You mustn¡¯t let down the glory of your ancestors.¡± Link knew why this happened. This probably happened because of the power of bloodline inheritance. Link possessed the Void bloodline, so he was able to be the Void Summoner. Fatty might really be Lu Ban¡¯s descendant and inherited Lu Ban¡¯s bloodline. Hence, he obtained such a profession. ¡°Yup! I will definitely develop and promote my ancestor¡¯s skills to a greater height!¡± Fatty nodded, his heart bing even more passionate. After bing a Craftsman, he would be able to research his interests better. ¡°Fatty, I shall hand these materials to you. For the next few days, we are going to build a base that solely belongs to us here!¡± Link¡¯s tone was solemn as he passed the ck-gold fragments he had just obtained to Fatty. These were the fragments from a shattered Legend-grade weapon. There were numerous fragments, enough to build a small-scale base. ¡°Legend-grade material!¡± Fatty eximed, the astonishment in his eyes bing even more intense. He realized that his Boss was really too awesome. Not only did Link casually take out a Legend-grade crafting skill book, but he also had lots of Legend-grade material! This caused Fatty¡¯s blood to boil with passion! He liked this type of stuff in the first ce, but because the cost of materials was too high, he wasn¡¯t able to toy with such things inrge quantities in the past. But Link had now satisfied his requirement. Not only were the materials enough, but the material grade was even Legend-grade. This was probably the dream scenario every Craftsman would dream of. ¡°Boss, don¡¯t worry! Leave them to me!¡± Fatty patted his chest and answered affirmatively. Fatty was 120% interested in crafting. What¡¯s more, this was Link¡¯s request. No matter what, Fatty would definitely make it happen! ¡°God Devourer, bring a group of people to work for Fatty,¡±manded Link. Building a base wasn¡¯t a simple task, it required lots ofbor and numerous materials. Luckily, everything could be found here. Chapter 71: Holy Sword, King鈥檚 Sword!

Chapter 71: Holy Sword, King¡¯s Sword!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios There wasn¡¯t a need to worry aboutbor. There were almost 300 people left behind from the three teams, and they would naturally be thebor force for building the base. These people were all Stage Two beings¡ªsuitable to do such manualbor. With the God Devourer Ant watching over them as deterrence, Link wasn¡¯t worried that they would dare to cause trouble. ¡°Zhi zhi!¡± Hearing Link¡¯s words, God Devourer instantly acted andmanded them to start moving. Momentarily, thisrge group of Stage Two existences started clearing the rubble and repairing the buildings. If outsiders saw this scene, they would definitely jump in shock. At such a time, it was unprecedented to use arge group of Stage Two beings asborers. However, there was an advantage to doing this. With the addition of these people, the time required to build the base would greatly reduce. They might even be able to finish building the base before the monster siege arrived! Link and the others nned to use Mingshi Hospital as the base point. The area within a ten-mile radius of the hospital would be the base¡¯s territory. Mingshi Cemetery was naturally included inside too. This was where the City of the Undead was; it was an extremely important district. From the previous situation, it seemed like the City of the Undead was under Link¡¯smand now. Naturally, he had to make good use of it. ¡°Xinghe, Xingyao, this ce is the City of the Undead. It¡¯s a ce that¡¯s perfect for training. You two can go in and enter the trials to increase your strength as fast as possible to prepare for the uing challenges,¡± said Link as he brought Luo Xingyao and the rest in front of the City of the Undead. Upon hearing his words, their hearts all trembled, and their eyes filled with shock. They stared at the ancient building standing in front of them. The magnificence it exuded was enough to make people admire and respect it. This ce was filled with extraordinariness! But what surprised them was that Link actually discovered such a treasure-like ce in such a short time. Luo Xingyao knew what the trial dungeons represented¡ªa ce all the big factions sought. As long as they could upy this ce, they would definitely be one of the most powerful factions in the future. The trial ground was the best ce to train and level up, allowing one to increase their strength rapidly. Having control over the trial ground also meant that they would face less danger as they trained and became stronger. This way, it would be hard for them not to be powerful! ¡°Saiya, I shall hand them over to you,¡± stated Link, looking towards the City of the Undead. Saiya¡¯s figure quietly appeared in the air, and she respectfully replied, ¡°Yes, Master!¡± This scene caused the others¡¯ hearts to tremble again. What¡¯s this? Isn¡¯t this a trial dungeon? Why does it look like this ce is more like Link¡¯s personal territory? Even the City of the Undead¡¯s guardian spirit is also so obedient towards him? The admiration and respect they felt toward Link grew even stronger in their hearts. Under Link¡¯s arrangements, the originally messy group instantly became orderly. Those who were supposed to carry stuff went to carry stuff, and those who were supposed to train went to train; everything was well organized. Seeing this scene, Link slightly nodded and entered the Sin Realm again. He had already reached Stage Two, Level 9, very close to reaching Stage Three. Link nned to make use of this time to reach Stage Three and increase his strength again. After all, it wasn¡¯t too long before the cmity. The fifth day of the apocalyptic world was about to end, and only four days were left before the monster siege arrived. By that time, endless waves of terrifying monsters woulde to attack the city. If they weren¡¯t fully prepared for it, they might probably die in this cmity. Link had personally experienced the terror of a monster siege. It wasn¡¯t something normal people could fight against. Thus, he had to think of and do everything he could to increase his strength in this period of time. Considering the current situation, the ce which would increase Link¡¯s strength the fastest was the Sin Realm. ... Supreme Blessing! After entering Sin Realm, Link didn¡¯t instantly start challenging the trials since the Sin Realm had a certain restriction. Every time a person challenged the same trial, the trial difficulty would increase greatly. Hence, Link nned to upgrade his equipment first. Supreme Blessing! Link took out the [Undead Bone Sword], an Epic-grade weapon. He was filled with anticipation toward what it would upgrade into. Momentarily, strange energy from some unknown ce appeared andnded on the sword,pletely covering it. The greyish-white bone sword was totally enveloped within the light now. At the same time, a majestic aura erupted from the sword as if it were the king of the world. This was a king¡¯s aura; it was like a peerless king had reappeared in the world and was looking down at his subjects proudly, causing the hearts of all creatures who sensed this aura to throb. The next moment, the greyish-white bone sword disappeared. In its ce was apletely golden sword. This sword was as long as two meters, and it had golden light glowing around it. The sword¡¯s surface was engraved with mysterious runic drawings. The hilt was iid with a colorful gemstone, which seems to contain iparable power. When this sword appeared, the world around Link seemed to tremble. It was like a peerless king had descended upon this ce, causing turmoil in Sin Realm as well. ¡°A peerless heavenly weapon!¡± Link was delighted. He could sense that this sword was very powerful, much more powerful than [Red Sky]! [King¡¯s Sword] Grade: Myth Introduction: A sword that exclusively belongs to the king of the heavens. It is stained with the blood of all demons; it is also capable of killing all kinds of evil beings and shocking the world! Strength: 1,337 Intelligence: 1,002 Constitution: 870 Agility: 790 Additional skill 1: [King¡¯s Protection] (Passive): The user can enjoy the protection of the king¡¯s aura. Increases [Strength], [Constitution], and [Agility] by 500%. Additional skill 2: [King¡¯s Deterrence] (Passive): Being the king of swords, the King¡¯s Sword can suppress all weapons that are of lower grade than itself. This causes the enemies¡¯ attack speed and damage to decrease by 50%. Additional skill 3: [Rage of the Holy Sword] (Active): When the user activates Rage of the Holy Sword, King¡¯s Sword will cover the user¡¯s bodypletely. All attribute damage is enhanced by 10,000%. Duration: 60 seconds. Cooldown time: One hour. Upon seeing the attributes of the [King¡¯s Sword], Link¡¯s heart shook. As expected of a Myth-grade weapon, it is indeed powerful. Link stretched out his hand and held [King¡¯s Sword] in his hand! ng! The sword intent was moring, and the king¡¯s aura was still very vigorous. It lingered around the sword, causing strange scenes to appear around the sword. Link felt extremely vast energy shoot out from [King¡¯s Sword], which then entered his body. This energy caused Link¡¯s aura to intensify abruptly by quite arge extent. Only when Link truly possessed this sword did he understand what a king¡¯s aura was. A golden light shed in Link¡¯s eyes, causing his aura to be even more solemn and majesty. He was like a peerless king that came out of a fairy tale, looking down upon the world with contempt and pride. If Link had this holy sword previously, he wouldn¡¯t have needed to spend too much effort to defeat the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s three team leaders. No matter what kind of tricks or technique his opponent used, everything else would be crushed into pieces when faced with absolute strength. Link¡¯s strength hadn¡¯t increased by a small amount. No, his strength had increased significantly. Epic-grade weapons simply weren¡¯tparable to Myth-grade weapons at all. After feeling the endless energy flowing into his body from [King¡¯s Sword], Link¡¯s battle spirit intensified as well. He couldn¡¯t help but think about testing this sword¡¯s power. For this purpose, Link didn¡¯t hesitate at all and entered the seventh level of Sin Realm again! Chapter 72: The Person Behind the Scene, Peerless Sword Immortal!

Chapter 72: The Person Behind the Scene, Peerless Sword Immortal!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios North of Dragon City. ck Dragon Research Institute. Boom! A loud bang sounded! A steel table made of an alloy actually broke into pieces with just one p. ¡°What! All three team leaders have perished, and the three teams¡¯ members have been all captured?¡± Doctor Ghost angrily red at the scout¡ªwho was kneeling in front of him and trembling¡ªwith his eyes wide open and a deadly gaze. ¡°That¡¯s... that¡¯s right. The three team leaders resisted with all their might and even used the Legend-grade energy cannon you built. But they were still killed by one sword sh and turned into powder in the end. Even the energy cannon was cut into half andpletely shattered.¡± ¡°That man... he¡¯s too strong!¡± The scout¡¯s eyes were filled with terror as his body trembled uncontrobly. Nobody would¡¯ve ever expected that thebined might of the three Stage Three team leaders and the Legend-grade weapon was still not enough to defeat the enemy. No, they were killed instead. That scene was really terrifying. ¡°That person... Who exactly is he?¡± Doctor Ghost let out a rough breath, his heart filled with anger. He never thought that the three teams¡ªwhich he meticulously nned and built¡ªwould actually be destroyed by a single person. ¡°His name is Link... Originally a student in Dragon City No.1 Middle School...¡± exined the scout. They had already checked Link¡¯s identity, and the result made them even more shocked. A student with no background and support actually gained such strength? ¡°Link...¡± Doctor Ghost¡¯s tone was ice-cold, as were his eyes. Ever since the apocalypse descended, and Doctor Ghost awakened the Myth-grade crafting skill¡ªthereby obtaining a Myth-grade Craftsman profession¡ªhis status was unshakable. The troops he built were filled with elites, who were well-equipped and had greatbat prowess. With the four team¡¯sbined strength, they were enough to destroy most of the other forces and dominate Dragon City. Even the Undead creatures couldn¡¯t affect them. This caused Doctor Ghost¡¯s wild ambitions to soar rapidly. He had intended to use this opportunity to take over Dragon City once and for all and build a glorious base that solely belonged to him, Doctor Ghost. But his ns were all destroyed now. The four groups were practically wiped outpletely, causing his original ns to be greatly affected. ¡°We can¡¯t give up on the Undead. That¡¯s our hope for turning the tables around,¡± said Doctor Ghost solemnly. He knew how important the City of the Undead was as a strategic location. In this chaotic world, having control of the City of the Undead was akin to having a source of endless powerful beings. This fact alone prevented Doctor Ghost from giving up. The scout hesitated for a while and said, ¡°Doctor, there¡¯s another matter. ording to our scouts, Link and his people are busily looking for construction materials. They seem to be building a city...¡± The scout wasn¡¯t sure if this was true or not. It should be known that building a city wasn¡¯t an easy task. All the required conditions had to be met to achieve this goal. Also, each of these conditions required extremely rare things. Even the ck Dragon Gang, which had a lot of resources, didn¡¯t have the capability of building a city. Just the City Building Token was extremely hard to find. Even with the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s monster kill rate, they hadn¡¯t seen a single trace of a City Building Token yet. It should be known that the only method to live peacefully in this apocalyptic world was to build a home city. This was something the ck Dragon Gang dreamed of doing, but it was still too far from their reach. ¡°Hm?¡± Upon hearing this, Doctor Ghost¡¯s heart trembled! ¡°What? They¡¯re building a city? Could it be that this kid has a City Building Token?¡± Doctor Ghost was shocked. He never expected that something his ck Dragon Gang could only dream of having would actually be in Link¡¯s hand now. By now, Doctor Ghost was certain that Link definitely possessed a City Building Token. If not, nobody would be silly enough to waste time building a city now. The manpower, material, and financial resources consumed to construct a city were too high to imagine. Doctor Ghost humphed coldly and said in disdain, ¡°This kid is seeking death. There are only four days left until the monster siege. No matter how fast they are, it¡¯s impossible to build a city before then.¡± Being a Myth-grade Craftsman, he was very clear about how difficult it was to build a city. ¡°Spread news of this out. Let the other factions in Dragon City step in. World Society, Thunder Pce, Monopoly... We mustn¡¯t let these people sit idle.¡± Doctor Ghost smiled coldly, having thought of a n in his mind. From the looks of the current situation, Link and his group¡¯sbat power is quite high. They definitely aren¡¯t easy to deal with. By spreading this news out to the other factions, they will exhaust Link and his group¡¯s strength first. Then, my ck Dragon Gang can take the opportunity to snatch the City Building Token. With the City Building Token to tempt them, I believe that none of the other factions will be able to resist their desire! Doctor Ghost was confident that he could make the other factions fight Link and his group first before reaping the benefits. Hence, bing the final winner. ¡°Yes!¡± After hearing this, the scout was inspired and full of enthusiasm. ¡°Also, urge ck Dragon¡¯s side to take action as soon as possible. We no longer have time to wait,¡± Doctor Ghostmanded the scout again, his tone solemn, and the light in his eyes shing. ¡°The preparations on the n Leader¡¯s side are almost done.¡± The scout nodded. ck Dragon was the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s leader. His status was higher than even that of Doctor Ghost. ¡°That¡¯s good. The show is about to start!¡± Doctor Ghost turned his gaze towards the window. Momentarily, a big conspiracy was brewing in Dragon City. ... The City of the Undead. At this moment, Link had entered the Sin Realm¡¯s seventh level again. In front of him, a figure had appeared. It was an old man dressed in a green robe, looking very celestial-like. He held a shiny sword as he stood there quietly; the entire space seemed to be filled by a sea of sword intent. This old man was like a peerless swordsman. His sword intent pierced toward the sky as if it were going to pierce a hole in the sky. ¡°This is a master-ss being!¡± Link¡¯s eyes focused. Even though he was just standing and facing the old man alone, the sharp sword energy already seemed to be stabbing him. This old man¡¯s aura was extremely violent and intense, way stronger than that of the Deathbone Swordsman Link previously faced. As expected of the City of the Undead. It even preserved the image of such a powerful being. At this moment, this old man¡¯s information appeared in Link¡¯s mind. Name: Li Chunqiu Race: Human Profession: Spring and Autumn Sword Immortal (Super God) Upon seeing this information, Link¡¯s heart trembled! This is actually the Spring and Autumn Sword Immortal, Li Chunqiu? Link had heard of Li Chunqiu¡¯s name before in his previous life. In his previous life, the apocalyptic cmity descended. All of the Scourge¡¯s forces surrounded the Human Alliance¡¯s five home cities. It was a crisis for the human race. Even though the top factions in the five home cities had used all of their strength to battle, it was still not enough to resolve this crisis. When the city gates were about to be broken through, and a mass killing was about to happen... Just at this moment, a peerless immortal appeared. This person imed that he was the Spring and Autumn Sword Immortal¡¯s sessor. This person was a Myth-grade swordsman. With his Spring and Autumn Sword Technique, he battled against the Scourge¡¯s three Demon Lords, causing the Scourge to be unable to proceed by even one step further. Due to this person¡¯s appearance¡ªwho dyed for time¡ªother top-notch powerful beings sessfully rushed back from outside to defend the home cities. If not, the humans in the apocalypse¡¯ster stages would have already been wiped out. At this moment, Link never thought that he would actually see the Spring and Autumn Sword Technique¡¯s creator in Sin Realm. This person was an ancestor-level existence. It looks like history¡¯s peerless existences have all stepped foot into the Sin Realm before and left their trial images behind. Chapter 73: Spring and Autumn Sword Immortal, Eternal Swordplay!

Chapter 73: Spring and Autumn Sword Immortal, Eternal Swordy!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios ¡°Time passes; the seasonse and go without a trace. For tens of thousands of years, people will inevitably end up here.¡± A deep masculine voice rang out, rumbling deep in the chests of those who heard it. The peerless sword immortal suddenly opened his eyes. Rays of light burst out like divine swords were attacking! For a time, the sword energy whistled in the air. Thousands of swords seemed to be wailing, weing the swordsman¡¯s arrival. Li Chunqiu¡¯s gaze fell on Link, and he was surprised. ¡°What a powerful sword! It looks like a weapon from someone in my generation.¡± Li Chunqiu saw the [King¡¯s Sword] in Link¡¯s hands. It was domineering and obviously more than ordinary! For a while, even the Spring and Autumn Sword in Li Chunqiu¡¯s hands began to vibrate. It seemed to be affected by the King¡¯s Sword¡¯s splendidness and was about to burst out with extraordinary sword intent. Zing! Ancient sword intent burst out; its appearance as varied as the passing of spring and autumn¡ªthe ups and downs in life. This was Li Chunqiu¡¯s Spring and Autumn sword intent! ng! At this moment, the [King¡¯s Sword] in Link¡¯s hands also began to vibrate, seemingly provoked by the Spring and Autumn Sword. A king¡¯s absolute aura erupted from it. Waves of the kingly aura rose to the sky, nketing it. The aura shot skyward, staining the heavens ck and yellow. When the holy sword was unsheathed, it stood proudly at the world¡¯s pinnacle like a peerless king of swords! At this moment, two horrifying sword intents¡ªwhich were both at the world¡¯s absolute pinnacle¡ªcollided. This collision caused the world to quake, the void to tremble, and suffused everything with the swords¡¯ energy. ¡°Not bad!¡± Li Chunqiu gasped in surprise. He could feel the pressure brought by the [King¡¯s Sword]. It was the King of Weapons and the King of Swords. It was aloof and awe-inspiring. In terms of power, it wasparable to his Spring and Autumn Sword. ¡°Senior Chunqiu, Junior Link hase to be enlightened!¡± Link spoke solemnly. Although the Li Chunqiu in front of him was just a phantom and a trial opponent created by the City of the Undead, he was still a supreme swordsman and a peerless warrior who deserved respect. The City of the Undead¡¯s most attractive thing was not the monsters that one could fight to level up. It was the opportunity to challenge the strongest warriors from the past. This would not only challenge oneself; it also allowed one toprehend the glory of each era¡¯s peerless warriors and challenge all of them. This battle evoked Link¡¯s excitement. ¡°Yes, you deserve a chance to fight with me.¡± Li Chunqiu¡¯s eyes were steady. They stared at Link, their expression thoughtful. ¡°Battle!¡± said Li Chunqiu, and the world trembled. Awe-inspiring sword intent gathered, coalescing into a hurricane made from sword intent! The sword aura wailed, awe-inspiring and unstoppable. The whole world appeared to be drenched in the sea of sword aura. It was frightening. Upon seeing this, Link¡¯s eyes be even more solemn. Is this a peerless sword immortal¡¯s true strength? He is too strong. He was only at this level because of the City of the Undead¡¯s influence. Li Chunqiu was now only a Stage Two, Level 9 existence¡ªthe same as Link. If the Spring and Autumn Sword Immortal were alive, just his sword intent would be enough to break the world. The Peerless Sword Immortal is indeed worthy of his name. ¡°Battle!¡± yelled Link. Not only did the sword intent not deter Link, but it agitated his fighting spirit instead. The [King¡¯s Sword] in Link¡¯s hands shone brightly, and the powerful kingly aura enveloped his entire body. He looked even more magical and mystical than before. At the same time, an absolute wave of domineering sword power saturated the area. It overwhelmed the world, forcing all other swords to surrender to it. This was the [King¡¯s Sword]¡¯s passive skill¡ª[King¡¯s Deterrence]! As the king of swords, the [King¡¯s Sword] could overwhelm all weapons that were of lower grade than it. This slowed the enemy¡¯s attack speed by 50% and reduced their damage by 50%. Although Li Chunqiu¡¯s sword intent was very strong, the Spring and Autumn Sword in his hand was only Legend-grade¡ª not as good as the [King¡¯s Sword]. For a while, Li Chunqiu seemed to be stuck in muddy ground, and his speed was significantly reduced. ¡°Interesting. Is this the king of swords trying to make all its enemies surrender?¡± Li Chunqiu chuckled softly, but he did not seem too concerned. As the Peerless Sword Immortal, would he be concerned about this bit of suppression when he had incredible sword intent? Chi! A glimmer of light shed from a sword. Li Chunqiu suddenly made a move. He turned into a blinding ray of white light with razor-sharp edges as he approached Link. In his hands, the Spring and Autumn Sword moved like a dragon swimming into the sea¡ªseamlessly melding with it. It attacked with vigor. This was a very powerful aura. Even a Stage Three master might not be able to resist it and would be torn into pieces. ¡°Good attack!¡± Link¡¯s expression tensed. He held the [King¡¯s Sword] and met the attack head-on. ng! Golden battle swords collided! The [King¡¯s Sword] collided with the Spring and Autumn Sword, creating numerous sparks. At the same time, both Li Chunqiu and Link were forced back by a huge energy wave. Both moved several steps backward. Their attacks were evenly matched. Li Chunqiu looked unaffected, but in reality, he was shocked. He never imagined that Link could erupt with such terrifying power¡ªsteady and powerful like a huge mountain. The awe-inspiring [King¡¯s Sword] made him especially shocked. It caused his Spring and Autumn Sword to vibrate incessantly and numbed his arm. The Spring and Autumn Sword had been with him for many years; it had been nourished by his sword energy, so it had long be a peerless weapon. But in the current battle of weapons, it turned out that his Spring and Autumn Sword was a little bit weaker! On the other side, Link was equally surprised. Li Chunqiu fully deserved his reputation as a peerless warrior. Even though he only had Stage Two strength, the amount of power that erupted from him was terrifying. This person was the strongest person Link had ever met. If it weren¡¯t for the [King¡¯s Sword]¡¯s passive skill¡ªwhich could suppress all other weapons¡ªLink would have suffered a beating at Li Chunqiu¡¯s hands. ¡°Again!¡± shouted Li Chunqiu as he got up again and attacked once more with the Spring and Autumn Sword! Link was awed but not afraid and met the attack head-on. The two shed with one another in an instant. Their bodies moved like lightning, and their swords met each other fiercely, stirring up a violent gust of wind. ng! ng! ng! The sounds of shing steel rang out! The surroundings overflowed with sword energy. It seemed unable to withstand the confrontation between the two sword intents, and even the void shook. Boom! With a loud noise, the two figures finally separated. At this moment, both of them were breathing heavily. Their robes were torn, and it was obvious that they were evenly matched. ¡°Hahaha! It¡¯s been a long time since I¡¯ve had such a good fight!¡± Li Chunqiuughed wildly. Although he was the Peerless Sword Immortal, he had a bold personality. He only sought to be the strongest swordsman, and he also appreciated the talent of his peers. The battle with Link had aroused Li Chunqiu¡¯s heart of swordsmanship¡ªwhich had slumbered for thousands of years. His breathing quickened. ¡°I will attack with all my might now! Watch out!¡± As Li Chunqiu spoke, his aura suddenly changed. In his body, a breath of life burst out, surging with vitality. However, it then turned bleak, deste, and mncholic. It seemed as if it would be extinguished at the most vigorous moment in life! This was Li Chunqiu¡¯s specialty¡ªSpring and Autumn Sword Technique. As soon as the sword technique was used, his aura instantly enveloped the whole world. It was infused with the endless feel of spring and autumn¡ªsimr to life and death, all ending in emptiness. The Spring and Autumn Sword moved with the aura, spinning lightly in the air. It was as if the sword was trying to sketch a picture of spring and autumn artistically and boldly. But this beautiful ambiance was full of the rhythm of death, which smothered one¡¯s soul. Chapter 74: The Pinnacle of the Sword, Destruction of Space!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Li Chunqiu made a move, and the sword intent exploded across the sky! It was the Spring and Autumn Sword Immortal¡¯s ultimate move! As soon as the Spring and Autumn Sword intent was used, even the sky and the earth became gloomy. As he watched the Spring and Autumn Sword intenting toward him, Link¡¯s eyes shone as the kingly aura burst out from within his body. Link could sense how terrifying this move was, so he knew he had to give his all. ¡°Rage of the Holy Sword!¡± Link thundered. His body was enhanced with the kingly aura, giving him a qualitative leap in all his attributes. With a 10,000% boost to his attributes, Link¡¯s strength peaked at a terrifying level. He wielded the sword with both hands, and golden sword energy appeared. The golden sword energy was three-feet-tall and seemed to be enveloped by gold. It was shiny and borne a king¡¯s wrath, intimidating all life. Boom! The golden sword energy and the Spring and Autumn Sword intent collided, causing a divine tremor. Crack! The surrounding space seemed like it could not withstand this power and was about to twist and copse, revealing endless nothingness. These two forces had exceeded their user¡¯s strength, seemingly capable of destroying tens of thousands of Undead. Boom! A shockingly huge explosion sounded. Dust rose, and rubble flew everywhere. A crack as deep as an abyss formed between both of them. Along with a surging hurricane, the two forces¡¯ aura was frightening as their strength raged, seemingly capable of destroying everything. ¡°So strong...¡± Link let out a rough breath, his gaze fixed in front of him. If not for the attribute boost from [Rage of the Holy Sword], it would be impossible to resist this Spring and Autumn Sword intent. This is the Peerless Sword Immortal¡¯s ultimate move, and it contains great terror. ¡°It¡¯s not over yet!¡± At this moment, Li Chunqiu¡¯s voice sounded again. ¡°The sword rises; spring is born!¡± Sword aura gathered behind Li Chunqiu, bing vast and awe-inspiring. It looked as though the aura was about to split open the doors of heaven. ¡°The word falls; autumn wind falls!¡± Li Chunqiu shouted coldly. At this moment, his expression had be extremely indifferent as if he was the controller of all swordy, evicting all evildoings! A huge sword illusion appeared above his head¡ªwhich was on the verge of exploding¡ªsignifying supreme sword intent. The giant sword illusion descended, causing the sky to shake. The void was ripped apart, and nothingness trembled. It was simply terrifying. This was the Spring and Autumn Sword Immortal¡¯s strongest move! Upon seeing this, Link took a deep breath. A brilliant sparkle appeared in his eyes as he roared, ¡°If you want to fight, I¡¯ll fight with you!¡± Stormy waves then broke out from within his body! A series of skills that increased one¡¯s attributes were activated by Link. Used in conjunction with [Rage of the Holy Sword], Link¡¯s aura became more and more terrifying. At this moment, Link was like the supreme god, standing on top and looking down upon the world! Link¡¯s expression remained indifferent. His cold expression was filled with perseverance. With trembling lips, Link executed his strongest strike! ¡°[Death Judgment]!¡± Link¡¯s icy voice rang out, and a huge shadow appeared behind him, wielding an iparably magnificent [King¡¯s Sword]. It was an unparalleled attack, enough to exterminate all lives and shatter the earth. The two magnificent sword energies confronted each other from a distance, stirring up an iparably terrifying power. They also drowned heaven and earth with endless sword intent, paling it. This was the battle between two swordsmen at their peak, showing their most glorious splendor! ¡°sh!¡± ¡°sh!¡± Link and Li Chunqiu spoke at the same time, allowing the two giant swords¡ªwhich traversed the sky¡ªto fall at the same time. Boom! At this moment, the sky split, and the earth cracked. The surroundings seemed unable to bear the strength. The space became turbulent and uncertain. The energy went into a frenzy, and the order was disturbed. Everything was about to fall apart. The two huge swords collided with each other with a bang as they fell in mid-air like stars. The void had long been enveloped by endless sword intent, causing one¡¯s heart to palpitate. Puff puff puff! A gust of whistling wind swept in, making both their robes flutter loudly. However, they both remained unmoved. Their eyes were fixed on each other¡¯s bodies. They wanted to see which of them was stronger or weaker from this exchange of blows. Boom! But just then, the space was unable to withstand the force and began to break up. The void shook, and the space shattered into countless fragments like ss, revealing a deep, ck hole of nothingness. The two overwhelming and supreme sword intents vanished, annihted between thews of heaven and earth. This mighty power spread and surged continuously, affecting the City of the Undead. It caused an unprecedented shock to ur in this ancient city. ¡°What happened?¡± The people¡ªwho were training¡ªimmediately sensed the anomaly and rushed out. With fear in her eyes, Saiya¡¯s figure suddenly appeared. She had watched over the City of the Undead for tens of thousands of years, but she had never seen such a strange event. She was unsure of what had happened. Sin Realm¡¯s seventh tier. The two figures remained across each other in the sky, facing each other. The space around had shattered, seemingly unable to affect the two at all. Finally, Li Chunqiu moved. A smile appeared on his face as he said, ¡°Link, you¡¯re very strong! I hope we get the chance to fight again.¡± Li Chunqiu¡¯s figure slowly faded and disappeared like sparkling stars. Upon seeing this scene, Link finally took a breath, and a strong wave of exhaustion washed over him. Li Chunqiu is indeed the Peerless Sword Immortal. He is too powerful, and the pressure is too heavy. Link could not help but give his all. Thankfully, everything has ended. ¡°I also look forward to battling you again!¡± Link murmured, the light in his eyes profound. With a thought, he left the Sin Realm. But he knew that this battle could be considered a victory or a tie. After all, Li Chunqiu was a top powerhouse in the past. He had already reached the pinnacle when he entered the City of the Undead and left his trial image. His Spring and Autumn Sword had reached its limit. However, Link was only Stage Two. It said a lot for him to be able topete with the Spring and Autumn Sword Immortal at the same level. For this reason, Li Chunqiu did not persevere and simply chose to give up. But Link didn¡¯t mind. When he had progressed further, he might even be stronger than this Spring and Autumn Sword Immortal. He had an invincible heart, and he wanted topete with the world¡¯s masters. As the view ahead became brighter, Link¡¯s figure appeared in Undead Town. When Link appeared, a group of people immediately gathered around. ¡°Lord, what happened?¡± Luo Xinghe¡¯s tone was grave; he thought something terrifying had happened. ¡°Nothing.¡± Link shook his head and then turned to look at Saiya. Saiya saw the situation and said calmly, ¡°Master, the Sin Realm¡¯s seventh tier has copsed. Nobody will be able to enter for a while. Only when the space repairs itself will everything be able to return to normal.¡± As the City of the Undead¡¯s guardian spirit, Saiya was unsure of the situation. But there was fear in her eyes, and her mind was shaken. Saiya realized that this master of hers was too terrifying. Chapter 75: Breakthrough, Stage Three!

Chapter 75: Breakthrough, Stage Three!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios When Link entered the Sin Realm¡¯s seventh tier for the first time, he sessfully cleared the tier, breaking a record with results that had not been seen in thousands of years. This was enough to shock the world. Nobody would¡¯ve ever expected that Link would shatter the entire seventh tier the second time he entered the Sin Realm, turning order into chaos. This was too scary. Even the God of Death did not expect this to happen. After all, only creatures below Stage Four could enter the Sin Realm. How powerful was a Stage Four existence? For this reason, the God of Death just randomly set aside an area for trials when he created the Sin Realm. However, no one could have imagined that there would be a genius such as Link. Although he was only a Stage Two existence currently, his attributes had long surpassed others who were of the same level. His attributes had reached a terrifying level. Furthermore, the one who fought against Link this time was one of the proud champions¡ªa supreme existence¡ªthe Spring and Autumn Sword Immortal! Their two forces converged together. Even though they both only had Stage Two strength, the power that exploded from them was far more terrifying than that from a Stage Four. This was why the Sin Realm¡¯s seventh tier shattered. Hearing Saiya¡¯s words, Link gave a wry smile. Things seem to have gotten a little out of hand this time. The Sin Realm¡¯s seventh tier was temporarily inessible. This also meant that an excellent leveling ce was gone. Fortunately, there were some rewards to be had. A notification sounded in Link¡¯s mind. [Ding! Congrattions on sessfully clearing the Sin Realm¡¯s seventh tier. Gained EXP +500,000!] [Ding! Congrattions on obtaining the skill reward¡ªSpring and Autumn Sword Technique (Basic)!] There was an order that existed in the City of the Undead. As the creator, the God of the Death would not leave a loophole. The trial dungeon could be entered as long as one¡¯s trial points were activated, but only the first two attempts gave a person a reward. This was to prevent people from maliciously leveling and getting equipment. Now, Link had won his second clearance reward. Chi! A golden light descended upon Link, and his breathing quickened. A total of 500,00 experience points was not a small amount. If it were anyone else, this massive amount of EXP was enough for them to level up. But because of Link¡¯s special upation, the EXP he required to level up was far more terrifying than others. Under this EXP¡¯s impetus, Link leveled up to Stage Two, Level 10, broke through the Stage Three threshold, and became Stage Three, Level 1! Link¡¯s eyes shone with vitality. Breaking through to Stage Three was enough for his strength to take a qualitative leap. Link¡¯s three major summons had also been blessed with EXP. A series of notifications sounded in Link¡¯s mind. [Ding! Congrattions on your summoned creature¡ªHoly Angel¡ªsessfully leveling up to Stage Three, Level 1!] [Ding! Congrattions on your summoned creature¡ªGod Devourer Ant¡ªsessfully leveling up to Stage Three, Level 1!] [Ding! Congrattions on your summoned creature¡ªChimera¡ªsessfully leveling up to Stage Three, Level 1!] The figures of Holy Angel Yuna and Chimera¡ªStar Moon¡ªsuddenly appeared behind Link and began to transform. Yuna¡¯s level-up was the same as before. The four wings that originally covered her back leveled, and two more holy wings grew. This made Yuna¡¯s aura even more sacred. She was also sessfully promoted to Seraphim. Star Moon¡¯s promotion was even more shocking. Star Moon¡¯s tiny figure suddenly grew bigger. He transformed into a ten-meter-tall, two-headed Chimera that floated in the air. Star Moon¡¯s body then emanated a strange burst of energy. It was strong, raw, and seemed to throb endlessly, making one tremble. ¡°Roar!¡± With a roar, a third head appeared between Star Moon¡¯s two heads. When all three heads appeared together, it made Star Moon seem even more terrifying. At this moment, there seemed to be infinite terroring from him. The power of destruction swept across the world, causing people to tremble. With the increase in power, Star Moon finally showed the power of destruction. Upon seeing this, Link¡¯s eyes narrowed. He realized that Star Moon¡¯s promotion was somewhat simr to Yuna¡¯s. The only difference was that one grew more wings, while the other grew more heads. But Yuna was a Holy Angel after all. Her wings symbolized power, which was understandable. However, Star Moon was of the mysterious and unpredictable Divine Wrath God race and the God of Divine Wrath¡¯s twin brother. He was the incarnation of destruction and had turned into a Chimera after being sealed by the God of Divine Wrath. But right now, as Star Moon¡¯s strength increased, the number of heads also increased. It was as if they were getting ready for destruction. Link thought to himself that if Star Moon fully matured, he might be able to bring the legendary nine-headed Chimera back into the world. That was a god-level existence. Moreover, Star Moon was the incarnation of destruction. If that day ever came, this world was probably going to meet a god of destruction. Link was not worried at all because Star Moon was his summon. Thus, it would follow his wishes. The stronger Star Moon was, the greater the boost it gave to Link. As the [Great Void Taboo Master], Link had no worries that his summons would escape his control. Sure enough, after sessfully leveling up, Star Moon did not maintain that deterrent figure. It changed back into his smaller appearance again and rubbed itself against Link¡¯s trousers. It could be seen that Star Moon was greatly dependent on Link because it knew that all its power came from Link. This meant that they shared the same power source. Link saw Star Moon rubbing against his leg and rubbed Star Moon¡¯s little head. Star Moon seemed to be trying to say something. But he fell silent at this moment because a mysterious power appeared. The people standing by the side were already shocked and had frozen in ce. Every time Link leveled, the power he released was extremely terrifying. They could barely stand it. It made them feel as if they had be more and more distant from Link, and the gap became more and more difficult to bridge. ¡°It will be extremely difficult to follow the Lord¡¯s footsteps.¡± Luo Xinghe gave a wry smile before turning his attention to Luo Xingyao. He knew that his sister had always looked up to Link. Luo Xingyao did not speak; she stared fixedly at Link¡¯s silent figure instead. The emotion in her eyes wasplicated. But Luo Xingyao suddenly turned and left. If she didn¡¯t work hard, the distance between the two parties would be greater and greater. Luo Xingyao stepped into the Sin Realm again, her expression resolute. This time, she chose to enter Sin Realm¡¯s fifth tier! ¡®Hey!¡± Upon seeing Luo Xingyao¡¯s actions, Luo Xinghe couldn¡¯t help but sigh. He found that the appearance of Link had changed her entirely. ¡°I have to work harder now.¡± In the end, Luo Xinghe shook his head and quietly entered Sin Realm¡¯s third tier. The pressure Link puts on us is really too much. Everyone hase this far together, so why is the strength disparity between us so great? Sigh,parisons really are odious.

Chapter 76: Undercurrent Surge! Ancient Martial Arts Heir!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Qiao Ruowei, Xue Linglong, and the others felt a sense of urgency. Hence, they all entered the Sin Realm to train themselves. The corners of Link¡¯s mouth curved up slightly when he saw them disappear one by one. The apocalyptic world¡¯sw for the race at the bottom of the food chain: Only the strongest would survive. Link was satisfied with their fighting spirit and behavior. Yang Xuerou¡ªwho stood by the side¡ªhesitated slightly and asked out loud, ¡°Link, do I have to enter this dungeon too?¡± Link shook his head. ¡°No. When the team dungeon opens, I¡¯ll enter with you.¡± The Sin Realm was an individual dungeon. Thus, it was not suitable for support professions like Priests. But there were two dungeons which had yet to open in the City of the Undead¡ªboth were team dungeons! At that time, Priests¡¯ strong supporting ability would be an indispensable part of the team. Priests that had awakened hidden professions¡ªsuch as Yang Xuerou¡ªwere targets that even the top factions would fight each other for. Yang Xuerou nodded, a sense of disappointment shing in her eyes. It has been several days since the apocalypse, and she had seen how cruel the world had be. She didn¡¯t want to be protected by Link all the time and be a burden. She wanted to be a great support for Link as well! But... Link¡¯s senses were sharp. He could immediately discover Yang Xuerou¡¯s change in mood. Since he had lived two lives as a human, Link¡¯s heart was trained to be as hard as steel. If not, he wouldn¡¯t have been able to survive in this cruel environment, much less be known as the Asura Summoner. But towards this Sister Xuerou¡ªwho had been taking care of Link since before the apocalypse¡ªLink naturally wouldn¡¯t treat her coldly like he would toward an enemy. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he said nonchntly, ¡°You¡¯re very important.¡± It was the truth. Legend-grade Holy Priest... If others knew of her profession, it would cause amotion in the entire east side! Upon hearing this, Yang Xuerou¡¯s delicate body trembled. The gloominess in her bright and limpid eyes was gone, and they lit up instantly. She could even feel a warm current in her heart. When Yang Xuerou lifted her head to look, Link had already headed outside, only leaving her the view of his slender and dependable back. ¡°Thank you.¡± Yang Xuerou¡¯s red lips quivered as she spoke in a weak, inaudible voice. Her gorgeous face was filled with determination. ... Outside Mingshi Hospital. A bustling scene. The ck Dragon Gang¡¯s three teams had left several Stage Two existences asborers, who were carrying all kinds of construction materials. If someone from outside saw this scene, their eyes would pop out of their heads! One should know that it had only been six days since the apocalypse. They were considered strong among the survivors since they were able to reach Stage Two within this period of time. Only Link could be so generous! The overseer, God Devourer Ant¡ªwho was covered with subtle blue runes and emitted a savage and fierce aura¡ªsaw Link and immediately appeared beside him, buzzing intimately. The little fatty, Lu Da¡ªwho was like a contractor¡ªalso hurried over. ¡°Brother Link.¡± Link said in a deep voice, ¡°There are four more days until the siege of the Undead creatures.¡± Lu Da nodded, his plump face all serious. ¡± En, I will definitely build the city within four days.¡± Link nodded slightly, not doubting Lu Da at all. This little fatty was a descendant of Lu Ban. His awakened profession was [Master Lu Ban], and he was trustworthy. However, the most frightening things in this apocalyptic world often weren¡¯t the monsters or the natural disasters. It was the human heart! As the saying went: ¡®There is a bottom to the 10,000-mile-deep sea, but the human heart¡ªwhich is only five inches¡ªcan¡¯t be predicted.¡¯ It was not a small matter to build a city, and they would definitely attract the eyes of others everywhere. The City Building Token that Link had was destined to tempt the top powers. Link gave instructions with an expressionless face. ¡°Yuna, Star Moon, bring a few people to scout the periphery. Also, pay attention to any movement from all sides.¡± Yuna nodded. ¡°Yes, Master.¡± Her six white-feathered wings blossomed with bright holy light as she brought a few people and flew into the distance. A ck divine aura diffused from the originally pocket-sized cute Star Moon. In just a single moment, a terrifying aura descended as Star Moon transformed into a three-headed, lion-dragon-like, ferocious beast. Star Moon then led several terrifying-looking people away. Link sat cross-legged in Mingshi Hospital with the [King¡¯s Sword] across his eyes. He then closed his eyes and meditated. The cruel apocalyptic world had torn away thest piece of shame from humans¡¯ hearts. Humans¡¯ ugliness, ferocity, and greed were exposed. But Link was not the least bit afraid. If anybody dared to stretch their dirty paws toward this ce, he would chop off their ws! ... At the same time. All the forces in Dragon City had received the piece of news the ck Dragon Gang had deliberately spread out¡ªsomeone built a city with Mingshi Hospital as the center! Chaos ensued in the entire city. The hearts of countless people began to burn! World Society! Inside a dpidated building. The room, originally littered with body parts and entrails, had now been cleaned up immactely. The only thing that remained was the faint smell of blood, signaling the cruelty of the apocalyptic world. A tall, stout man with a cold face stood in front of a floor-to-ceiling window, looking down on the crumbling city. He did not say a word, but he was firm and calm. His aura was so terrifying it made one¡¯s heart palpitate. This man was World Society¡¯s President, Feng Haotian! Before Doomsday descended, he was already an ancient martial arts master. His Baji Quan had achieved perfection. However, in the peaceful world, he could only cower in a nondescript martial arts school. His techniques¡ªgood enough to kill¡ªwere useless. After Doomsday descended, he was reborn. He awakened a Diamond-grade hidden profession, [Baji Quan Grandmaster] With his skills, he killed Undead creatures like he was ughtering dogs. He also created the World Society within days. This apocalyptic world¡ªwhich seemed iparably cruel to others¡ªwas a beautiful scene in his eyes. Suddenly, a man walked toward him quickly and reported respectfully. ¡°President, the news has been confirmed. Someone is indeed building a city.¡± The burly man nodded, and the corners of his mouth lifted to reveal a hideous grin. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect someone to farm a City Building Token. Such good luck. Amoner¡¯s only crime is to carry a jade1. I wonder... whether they have the ability to keep this luck?¡± ¡°Pass my orders down. Gather our brothers of the World Society. My World Society is going to have a city in this apocalyptic world!¡± ¡°Yes.¡± The man received the order and left respectfully. ... A street densely popted with Undead creatures. A young man with cold eyes raised his palm, and a dazzling thunderbolt burst out from his hand! The thunder snake danced and made crackling electric sounds! A monstrous might swept past. This was the might of thunder, but it was also the vast skies¡¯ might! With thunder on his palm, the young man was like the God of Thunder¡¯s incarnation, punishing living beings on behalf of the heavens! With a wave of his hand, a silver lightning bolt shot forward like a thunder spear! A roar exploded. The crazy influx of Undead creatures turned into EXP under the sky filled with lightning! Bright silver rays of light burst out from the man¡¯s body, and his aura became extremely terrifying. At this moment, he had reached Stage Three, Level 10¡ªhe was not far from Stage Four! The manughed. ¡°Not bad. It¡¯s really efficient having someone draw out the monsters then having me kill them. When I level up to Stage Four, it will be time for my Thunder Pce to go to Mingshi Hospital! The City Building Token is good stuff!¡± This young man was the Thunder Pce¡¯s Lord, Zhu Tianyang! Chapter 77: Those Who Covet the City Building Token Must Die!

Chapter 77: Those Who Covet the City Building Token Must Die!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios A basement in the suburbs near Dragon City. A man draped in a ck robe and shrouded in shadows was using a brush to smear something on the ground. The scarlet color was weaved into a huge circr formation. It smelt fishy and felt very weird. As the man painted on the ground, he muttered a string of words that were obscure and inexplicable sounding. They made no sense to human beings at all. It was terrifying, as if it could corrupt the soul! Not far from him was a still-warm corpse. The corpse¡¯s eyes were wide open; deep fear lingered in those empty eyes. The bright-red paint on the ck-robed man¡¯s brush was the fresh blood gurgling out of this corpse... Footsteps were heard. A man with a fearful face stood at the entrance to the basement. He spoke with his head bowed, his voice trembling as he did so. ¡°Leader... Doctor is rushing us again. He says that the preparations on our side need to be elerated. Doctor said that there are four more days until the Undead Tide and that we must make sure that the Supreme Lord is summoned from the Void at that time...¡± The ck-robed man¡¯s hand suddenly shook. At the same time, the young man¡ªwho came to pass on the message¡ªalso shivered. The ck-robed man raised his head and slowly pulled back his hood, revealing a pale and sickly-looking face. He was originally a handsome man, but the suture scaring down from his left eye made his head look as if it were split in two. Furthermore, his face was covered with runes painted on with unknown colorants, making him look like some kind of Frankenstein. Chuckle. The ck-robed man let out a spine-chilling cackle. ¡°Doctor Ghost is really impatient.¡± This was none other than the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s leader, whom Doctor Ghost called ck Dragon. But the smile on ck Dragon¡¯s face soon faded. His eyes were wide, and his serious face was dripping with madness. ¡°He¡¯s teaching me how to do my job?¡± Before the words ended, a slippery and sticky tentacle¡ªdripping an unknown liquid¡ªsuddenly appeared in the void! The menacing tentacles instantly bound the man who hade to deliver the message. The messenger was not a weak man. He had a majestic aura, and he was a powerful Stage Two, Level 6 warrior! But he was unable to offer even the slightest resistance once he was bound by the tentacles! Only screams of terror echoed in the basement. The tentacles soon disappeared. There was an additional puddle of twisted-up body parts on the ground. ck Dragon dipped the brush in the blood gushing out of the corpse¡¯s mouth and continued to paint. He was close topleting his masterpiece. ... The seventh day of the apocalypse. Dawn. Mingshi Hospital. Link¡ªwho was meditating¡ªslowly opened his eyes. In those deep eyes, light shed like the shadow of a sword! Restoring his energy through meditation was Link¡¯s habit. This type of rest was more efficient than the usual sleep. Footsteps were heard. The six-winged angel Yuna and Star Moon had both returned. Yuna got down on one knee, while Star Moon turned into a puppy¡ªwhichughed and rubbed itself on Link¡¯s trouser leg. ¡°Master, there are nearly 1,000 unknown people approaching us. The preliminary estimate is that there are at least three forces.¡± ¡°Hmm.¡± Link nodded expressionlessly. A bitingly-cold look shed in his eyes. He lifted the [King¡¯s Sword]¡ªwhich was lying across hisp¡ªand strode outside. Outside Mingshi Hospital. The people building the city stopped whatever they were doing and intently stared at the uninvited guests in front of them. A dense crowd of people surrounded the ce like a surging tide! Each of them was a Doomsday survivor or Evolver in [Doomsday Online]. They all followed behind their respective leaders; their expressions were fierce and filled with murderous intent! World Society¡¯s President, Thunder Pce¡¯s Lord, and Monopoly¡¯s Gang Leader¡ªFeng Haotian, Zhu Tianyang, and Zhang Rongjiu¡ªwere at the front. The three men faced each other, and the atmosphere was tense! The leader of Monopoly was a middle-aged man with a big belly named Zhang Rongjiu! At this moment, he was embracing a ravishing-looking woman with a sneer on his face! Before the apocalypse, he was a wealthy businessman and had invested in manyboratories that researched cutting-edge technologies. Theing of Doomsday benefited him greatly. The technology produced by theboratories allowed him to stand firm at the beginning of Doomsday. Today, his aura was extremely terrifying. He had also reached Stage Four, Level 5! It was shocking that he was able to reach such a level on the seventh day of Doomsday! World Society¡¯s Feng Haotian was even more terrifying. He had reached Stage Four, Level 7! Thunder Pce¡¯s Lord, Zhu Tianyang, was also a terrifying Stage Four, Level 3 existence! These three together emanated an aura so terrifying it was enough to scare heaven and earth! At this time, most people were still only Stage One or Stage Two. Even Stage Three fighters were extremely rare. Exceptionally strong people who had reached Stage Four were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. They were the most powerful of the human race! They were strong enough to dominate a region and lord over everyone! ¡°There are too many monks and too little meat1.¡± Zhang Rongjiu, Monopoly¡¯s leader, sighed as if something were troubling him. ¡°Humph! World Society will definitely get the City Building Token. The two of you might as well retreat, lest you lose your life!¡± said Feng Haotian of World Society coldly and arrogantly. Thunder Pce¡¯s lord, Zhu Tianyang, just twitched the corner of his mouth and smiled. None of the three cared if the City Building Token¡¯s owner had an opinion! Or rather, they simply didn¡¯t care! In their opinion, the City Building Token¡ªwhich could cement their troops standing in Doomsday¡ªwas already as good as theirs! At this time, Link happened to walk out of Mingshi Hospital slowly. His face was expressionless as he held the [King¡¯s Sword]. The sword emitted a domineering intent and was enshrouded by golden light! The six-winged Holy Angel Yuna, Star Moon, and Yang Xuerou followed closely behind him. Monopoly¡¯s Gang Leader¡ªZhang Rongjiu¡¯s eyes immediately lit up. ¡°That sword is not bad either! It¡¯s at least a Diamond-grade or stronger weapon!¡± He had barely finished speaking when his gaze fell upon Yang Xuerou, Xue Linglong, and the other women. A touch of greed and lust shed in his eyes. ¡°Hehe, kid, your luck is not bad. You¡¯ve nock of women. It seems I have note here in vain this time!¡± While speaking, he had already assumed that the [King¡¯s Sword] and the women would be his. He treated Link as if he were nonexistent. Chuckle. The corners of Link¡¯s mouth rose, and he smiled instead. However, that smile was cruel and cold. He then said indifferently, ¡°I give you two choices: Die or leave your heads!¡± As his icy words fell, Link¡¯s majestic aura shook! He had no intention of allowing these people¡ªwho were after the City Building Token¡ªto leave. Zhang Rongjiu, Feng Haotian, and the others were stunned. They obviously did not expect that a Stage Three Evolver would dare to behave so recklessly in front of them! Three pairs of eyes looked toward Link, the owners¡¯ expressions amused. ¡°A mere Stage Three Evolver actually dares to make such a ruckus in front of us. Laughable! I will get rid of you first, fly!¡± Feng Haotian disdainfully spoke as he raised his hand and punched. An overwhelming pressure bloomed from that punch! A roar was heard as if the air was unable to handle the high pressure! A terrifying fist shadow rushed towards Link like a roaring lion! The horror of this strike made the crowd¡¯s pupils shrink in fear! If it connected, it was enough to make mincemeat of a Stage Three warrior! Chapter 78: Spring and Autumn Sword Technique! God of Killing Arrives!

Chapter 78: Spring and Autumn Sword Technique! God of Killing Arrives!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios The searing attack had yet toe, but the strong howling wind was already suffocating! Graveness, even fear, showed on the faces of the survivors on Link¡¯s side! Under this mighty punch, they instantly seemed to be a small boat beneath the infinite and magnificent sea. They could only tremble and sway! Link merely wore a look of indifference on his face. ¡°Lord, be careful.¡± With a soft call, Xue Linglong was about to go forward with the [Spear of the Frosty Moon] in hand. However, the radiant holy light had already lit up! ¡°Holy Light Blessing.¡± Yuna¡¯s delicate yell sounded. A gold-colored light screen¡ªsimr to a waterfall that poured from the zenith¡ªappeared in front of Link! The fist shadow with terrifying might¡ªenough to blow apart an ordinary Stage Three Evolver¡ªcollided with the light screen! Boom! Smoke and dust surged! However, the all-conquering fist shadow did not puncture the light screen this time. Instead, it crumbled before the light screen! Link continued standing still, his figure tall and lean like a spear that pointed right to the sky! ¡°This...¡± Quite a number of World Society¡¯s Evolvers drew in a cold breath, surprise showing on their faces! They had witnessed their own President¡¯s might before! He was the heir of ancient martial arts. Together with his martial arts skills, Feng Haotian was practically an unmatched existence amongst his peers of the same level! Today, it was their first time seeing their President... unable to defeat an enemy after throwing a punch! ¡°Oh, you¡¯re a Summoner! This summoned creature is interesting.¡± Feng Haotian narrowed his eyes, a dangerous gleam shing across them. He felt rather embarrassed, and the killing intent in his heart shot up all the more! Feng Haotian was about to strike once more to kill the fellow in front of him. However, Monopoly¡¯s leader, Zhang Rongjiu¡ªwho was at the side¡ªditched the woman in his arms andunched an attack at Link first! ¡°Rascal, the City Building Token is in your hands, isn¡¯t it!? Go and die then! Pir of Garrote, prate him!¡± Zhang Rongjiu snarled, and a staff¡ªwhich radiated brilliant gold light¡ªappeared in his hands. Zhang Rongjiu was a [Mage]. His awakened profession was a Gold-grade hidden profession, [Protector of the Earth]! Following the wielding of the gold-colored staff, an extremely vast aura shook the air! In an instant, the sound of sand and soil breaking sounded! Crack, crack. Hideous, conical stone pirs¡ªcovered with barbs¡ªsuddenly appeared from the ground! Every stone pir glowed with a muddy-yellow brilliance. This was the earth attribute¡¯s might radiating! Each and every stone pir pointed towards Link, extremely fierce as they sought to prate and nail him to the ground! The corners of Zhang Rongjiu¡¯s mouth lifted, revealing a hideous smile as if he had already seen the uing splendid image! But, Link also moved. The [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique] wasunched instantly. Streaks of resplendent sword energy unrolled right there, and piercing sword intent immediately filled the world! At this moment, everything in the universe seemed to lose its color, bing grayish-white! Before everyone¡¯s eyes, there was only the man¡¯s unmatched, powerful figure and the sword! Link had the grace of a startled swan, yet he was also utterly cold and withering! It was as if the mighty sword energy was going to rip the sky apart¡ªits momentum was apodictic! Boom! A roar exploded out as if it were about to tear people¡¯s ear membranes! The stone pirs¡ªwhich ruthlessly flew toward Link¡ªall crumbled under the sword energy! The stone pirs¡ªwhich radiated the earth attribute¡¯s might¡ªturned into flying gravel without even touching the edges of Link¡¯s clothes! In the crowd¡¯s eyes, this scene was like a miracle! One had to know that Link was only a Stage Three, Level 1 existence currently, and he was also a Summoner! An ordinary Stage Three powerhouse was absolutely no match when faced with a Stage Four powerhouse! It was all the more so for Summoners¡ªwhose bodies were frail¡ªsince they relied on their summoned creatures to oppose enemies! Unexpectedly, the man before them was actually this tyrannical! A man and a sword¡ªunsurpassed talent and grace! Many Evolvers were all wide-eyed, wearing looks of shock! Zhang Rongjiu had even frowned. His fat face shook, revealing some hints of surprise! Presently, Link¡¯s body radiated a bright gold brilliance once more! Like a gold-colored ocean, it poured out from all over him! ¡°[Holy Charge]!¡± Link was like a matchless gold sword. After destroying the stone pirs, he continued to advance forward boldly! ¡°Courting death!¡± Zhang Rongjiu was instantly enraged. This fellow broke my skill and is even charging towards me instead of escaping for his life. An insignificant Stage Three Evolver really thinks he can shake me? ¡°Earth Coffin!¡± As Zhang Rongjiu¡¯s words fell, the skill wasunched. Streams of muddy-yellow energy gathered around Link like multiple yellow palms¡ªthey wanted to bury and envelop him! But when [Holy Charge] was in process, Link was immune to all damage and crowd control! Those muddy-yellow palms that grabbed at Link couldn¡¯t touch him at all. They were bounced back by the ocean-like gold light! ¡°How is this possible?¡± The corners of Zhang Rongjiu¡¯s eyes twitched. It was his first time encountering this situation! However, the [King¡¯s Sword] had already arrived! Boom! Zhang Rongjiu was directly sent flying, but blood wasn¡¯t seen spurting. The sound of metals shing reverberated in the air! Through Zhang Rongjiu¡¯s torn clothes, the gloss of metal was visible. His body had been mechanically modified before! This was his bonus of investing in a techpany. It was also his capital to stand firm in the apocalypse¡¯s early days! ¡°Goodd! If it weren¡¯t because more than 70% of my body had been mechanically modified, wouldn¡¯t I have been fooled by you?¡± Zhang Rongjiu¡¯s curses sounded. He abruptly turned around and was just about to release magic. However, he discovered that he¡¯d been silenced! As Zhang Rongjiu swung his staff, he was actually unable to connect with the powers of the earth! This was precisely the effect of [Holy Charge]! Link couldn¡¯t be bothered to pay Zhang Rongjiu any attention. The [King¡¯s Sword] was raised high. With a swift and fierce coercion, Link shed! [Rage of the Holy Sword]! All of a sudden, the gold-colored radiance on the King¡¯s Sword surged like roaring gold mes that spread. It sought to set the universe on fire! Puchi! A ripping noise sounded! Mages, just like Summoners¡ªother than a few hidden professions¡ªalso had weak bodies! Although Link was only at Stage Three, his attribute screen was far beyond what his peers at the same level couldpare to! This strike directly ripped apart Zhang Rongjiu¡¯s neck! Scarlet red blood spurted out like red satin! A head flew right up and tumbled to the ground! Till death, both Zhang Rongjiu¡¯s eyes remained wide open as ifpletely unable to believe that he¡ªa Stage Four top powerhouse¡ªwas actually defeated in the hands of a Stage Three Summoner! Silence¡ª The surroundings immediately fell into dead silence! Everyone was so shocked by the scene in front of their eyes that they could not speak! It seemed like countless thunderbolts werending on their heads, making them tender with a crispy crust. Their minds werepletely nk! A Stage Four powerhouse died on the spot¡ªthat was a top expert at the present stage! The expressionless youth was like a peerless God of Killing; he was fearsome! Only after a few moments had passed did exmations sound! ¡°How is this possible!¡± ¡°Damn! Isn¡¯t that rascal a Summoner? How can a Summoner¡ªwho is supposed to have a fragile body¡ªbe this ferocious?!¡± ¡°Gang Leader... Gang Leader is a Stage Four powerhouse, yet he was actually killed in closebat by a Stage Three Summoner?!¡± ... Among the cries of astonishment, World Society¡¯s President and Thunder Pce¡¯s Lord¡ªFeng Haotian and Zhu Tianyang¡ªhad extremely ghastly expressions on their faces. Link only lifted his long sword slowly, his face aloof as always. ¡°Next.¡± Chapter 79: Baji Quan vs. Spring and Autumn Sword Technique!

Chapter 79: Baji Quan vs. Spring and Autumn Sword Technique!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Link¡¯s icy cold voice rang out at the scene! Unparalleled might, piercing dominance! The crowd of Evolvers¡ªwho came forth to seize the City Building Token¡ªall shuddered in fear! This youth before them had killed a Stage Four top powerhouse in an instant! How ferocious was that? The members of Monopoly were all deathly pale, and their lips trembled. After watching the aloof young man before them, they could not speak at all! Their gang leader was beheaded within a few breaths! They felt wrath, but they were also terrified! Presently, the most ashamed and annoyed people were naturally still World Society¡¯s President and Thunder Pce¡¯s Lord¡ªFeng Haotian and Zhu Tianyang Link had killed the Stage Four powerhouse, Zhang Rongjiu, in a sh. This was undoubtedly the most unyielding response to them! ¡®So what if he¡¯s a Stage Four powerhouse? I¡¯ll still kill him!¡¯ This nonchnce and resoluteness were ruthlessly pping the two people¡¯s faces! It humiliated both of them, and their cheeks were even burning slightly! Feng Haotian and Zhu Tianyang¡ªwho had thought little of this youth earlier¡ªnow wore extremely cloudy looks. It was like ayer of frost had covered their faces. They could tell that the young man before them wasn¡¯t as simple as just being lucky! So much so that the two even felt rather regretful now. They shouldn¡¯t have exercised restraint earlier because of their identity and stand idle. They ought to have finished off this rascal together first! However, the universe had millions of different types of medicines¡ªall except regret medicine! Feng Haotian and Zhu Tianyang both felt that they had gone too far to turn back! ¡°Goodd, you do have some skills.¡± Feng Haotian sneered as he slowly clenched his fist, his joints cracking loudly! An extremely ferocious, mountain-like aura suffused from his body! Smoke and dust surged in the surroundings, directly being knocked back by that terrifying air! At this moment, the group of Evolvers all felt a chill in their hearts. It was as if they saw a fierce tiger abruptly opening its eyes amidst a sea of blood and piles of bodies! A hostile aura and killing intent gushed forth! The fierce tiger was unleashed¡ªit wanted to eat people! Feng Haotian was evidently even more brutal than Zhang Rongjiu! This wasn¡¯t coercion from a Stage Four, Level 7 existence; it was something more. It was the might of an ancient martial arts heir! Before the apocalypse, a saying had existed: ¡®Schrs secured the world with Tai Chi; the military stabilized the universe with Baji1!¡¯ It served to show the dominance of the Baji Quan. Moreover, Feng Haotian¡¯s body had evolved now. When he executed the Baji Quan, it was even more outstanding! ¡°Able to kill a Stage Four powerhouse; just qualified enough to die under my fists!¡± Feng Haotian sneered, still arrogant. ¡°You will die today!¡± Thunder Pce¡¯s Lord Zhu Tianyang¡ªwho was at the side¡ªalso shouted. Presently, his gaze was chilly. Lightning faintly emerged around him. The crackling of electric currents sounded, and Zhu Tianyang¡¯s robes flowed on their own ord without wind blowing them, pping loudly! It was like the God of Thunder from the empyrean had arrived in the mortal world¡ªhis presence was mighty! What Zhu Tianyang had awakened was a Diamond-grade hidden profession, [Thunderbolt Master]! He could wield thunder and carry out punishments on behalf of the heavens! The crowd of Evolvers was extremely frightened! There was envy, jealousy, and more than anything, fear in their gazes! One must know that, even after awakening special attributes, thunder was an exceptionally rare attribute amongst the Evolvers who could control special attributes. The might of thunder attacks was far more powerful than earth, water, fire, and the other special attributes! The two people made absolutely no effort to disguise their killing intent toward Link. In the two pairs of eyes, there seemed to be sparks flying in all directions and magma flowing! Link maintained an apathetic countenance. There was only iciness on his handsome face. ¡°Die!¡± Feng Haotian roared lowly. It was like a ferocious tiger¡¯s snarl, and the sound shook the sky. Meanwhile, his figure also suddenly leaped out! Baji Quan was a closebat art. One¡¯s fists, legs, and body were weapons to defeat the enemy. Burst, shake, swift, attack, and lean¡ªunconstrained yet concentrated! Before his piercing attack had struck, the terrifyingly strong wind crushed and lifted all the gravel on the ground. The crowd watching the battle was struck dumb; this was no longer a category that human strength could reach! Doomsday... Although it dealt a destructive blow to the world, it also allowed the survivors to possess terrifying strength! A Stage Four powerhouse¡¯s offensive strength was actually this frightening! Link naturally wouldn¡¯t allow this fist to hit him; he had no action. Presently, a cold gleam shed in his eyes, and a brilliant glow already radiated from the [King¡¯s Sword] in his hands. The [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique] wasunched once again! Vast sword intent unfolded instantly. Streaks of gold sword energy surrounded Link, circting and dancing. Link¡¯s ck hair flew in the wind; his figure was slender and tall like an ancient sword immortal that came sailing across through the years! The longsword in his hands had unmatched swiftness and fierceness, and the mighty sword energy shot straight into the skies! Without retreating, Link employed the [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique], brazenly sweeping towards Feng Haotian! Boom! Boom! A boom instantly came from midair! These were the explosion sounds from the sword energy and fist wind colliding! The crowd of Evolvers only felt like their ear membranes were about to be torn apart on the spot! Seeing that Link wasn¡¯t dodging, Feng Haotian instead came forth with a sword. Hints of a cruel smile rose in his fierce eyes. He was set on taking this fellow¡¯s life! One must know that Feng Haotian was the ancient martial arts heir, while ordinary Evolvers still hoped and prayed piteously, farming skill books to strengthen themselves. Hisbined martial skills became his unrivaled killing skills! Such that he even acquired the hidden profession, [Baji Quan Grandmaster]. He gradually understood the truth of Baji Quan! This boxing style seemed to be created just for this apocalyptic world! Or rather, only in this apocalyptic world would the boxing style¡¯s true might be demonstrated following the rise of the yers¡¯ levels! This apocalyptic world¡ªwhich was extremely cruel to others¡ªwas prepared for people like him! He would certainly pioneer a glorious and brilliant era! As his thoughts swirled, the aura around Feng Haotian became increasingly boundless. He swung his fists and feet, bringing out limitless fist and feet shadows! The longsword in Link¡¯s hands danced rapidly, simrly painting a sky full of sword light! The swift and fierce sword light collided with the fist shadows, erasing each other. Multiple shockwaves then burst out! The repercussions of the two¡¯s battle were startling enough to tear a Stage Two powerhouse apart instantly! However, the two people battling werepletely fine! Having lived two lifetimes as a human, this was Link¡¯s first time engaging with a descendant of ancient martial arts. This bout ofbat brought some graveness into his heart. But while his opponent had Baji Quan, he also had the [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique]! He had also inherited this technique from ancient times¡ªnot inferior in the slightest! So much so that Link found he became increasingly skillful with his sword techniques during the fight; hisbat ability continued to rise! The steady improvement of his skills¡¯ dexterity made Link delighted! Currently, Link wasn¡¯t anxious to disy his powerful skills. He directly treated Feng Haotian as his whetstone to sharpen his fighting skills. Within a short moment, the two shed ten times in a row. Feng Haotian was surprised in his heart after seeing how this youngd had yet to have his skull crushed by one fist of his and how his sword techniques seemed to be bing increasingly superb instead. One must know that Feng Haotian wasn¡¯t fearful at all even when facing Stage Four monsters. Hisbat ability was enough to rule over those at the same stage. This rascal¡¯s sword technique seems to be rather outstanding as well. He is even able to sharpen and improve himself while battling! Frustration emerged in Feng Haotian¡¯s heart; he did not want to continue on like this. He wanted to kill this person right away! This person was extraordinary. Link gave him a vague sense of danger, so he wanted to resolve a future disaster in advance! In the distance, Zhu Tianyang¡¯s gaze was cold and fierce. His hands bloomed with an electrifying glow, ready to strike at any time. Since the two fought close-range, it was easy for Zhu Tianyang to cause idental injuries when he used his spells. But as he watched the two people fight, Zhu Tianyang felt inexplicably uneasy in his heart... Chapter 80: Iron Mountain Lean! Thunder Lake Fall!

Chapter 80: Iron Mountain Lean! Thunder Lake Fall!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios During the gap of the fist move, Feng Haotian seized the opportunity as a savage smile appeared on his face! His body suddenly turned, and he charged brutally toward Link! This was [Iron Mountain Lean]¡ª the move had the most frightening might amongst the Baji Quan moves! With this lean1, Feng Haotian no longer had any reservations! He gave his all; the killing intent and hostile aura around him gushed out! The raging hostility turned into a surging, blood-red me¡ªwhich actually transmogrified into a massive wild bear in front of Feng Haotian! The huge bear seemed to hail from the ancient wild; its aura was terrifying. Its massive body seemed capable of destroying mountains, and it rampantly charged toward Link with immense ferocity! Feng Haotian immediately felt veryfortable in his heart. It was as if he had already seen this fellow before him directly getting blown apart under a strike from him! Before the apocalypse, his lean was enough to tear apart a tree as thick as a water bucket! Currently, he was already a Stage Four powerhouse. This move¡¯s might was enough to shake the mountains! What will a mere Stage Three Evolver use to resist this? There is nothing he can do except pay with his life! Thunder Pce¡¯s Lord, Zhu Tianyang¡ªwho was in the distance¡ªalso revealed a hideous smile upon seeing Feng Haotian use such a terrifying move. This rascal is dead meat! However, a shred of apprehension also shed through his eyes. This was because a battle between himself and Feng Haotian was unavoidable when vying for the City Building Token. The lightning in his palm grew even brighter. Zhu Tianyang already nned to take action against Feng Haotian. Meanwhile, Yang Xuerou, Lu Da, Xue Linglong, and the rest of Link¡¯s subordinates all wore looks of worry. Their hearts were in their throats! Yet, the next scene blew everyone away. They were practically so startled that their eyeballs popped out! They saw! Under a resplendent holy light, golden holy light burst out from around Link like a flowing river! This was the [Holy Light Beam] released by Yuna! At this moment, it struck everyone that this sword immortal-like man before their eyes wasn¡¯t a Fighter at all, but a Summoner! [Holy Light Beam] was a bug-like skill. It allowed an ally to gain invincibility, bing immune to all damage for two seconds! As Yuna advanced to Stage Three and became a Holy Seraphim, the skill¡¯s invincibility duration was extended to three seconds! Boom! The [Iron Mountain Lean]¡ªwhich was enough to rip apart a mountain and crush huge rocks¡ªwas directly blocked by the glorious holy light! Link remained standing proudly in the same spot; there wasn¡¯t the slightest injury on him. Feng Haotian¡¯s eyes instantly widened. He seemed to be full of shock as if he¡¯d seen a ghost. ¡°What!¡± But Link would not be courteous with him. ¡°You are a pretty good whetstone, but that is all.¡± Falling together with his cold words was the even icier sword glow! With this strike, the cold light burst through the world! Puchi! A rip sounded! [King¡¯s Sword] cut the side of Feng Haotian¡¯s waist, bringing out a clump of scarlet red. It then tore the armor on his body, slicing diagonally throughout. The sword directly split Feng Haotian into two pieces! A piteous shriek sounded, and fresh, scarlet-red blood¡ªwhich shrouded tattered organs¡ªscattered on the ground! This bloody scene was extremely shocking to the eyes. Everyone stood transfixed on the spot like y figures! The dismembered Feng Haotian fell to the ground. As he was a Stage Four powerhouse, his energy and blood were powerful; thus, he had yet to die. He wore a look full of terror and pain. The fresh blood that surged out of his mouth also carried pieces of his organs. Feng Haotian was full of disbelief. His eyeballs were practically about to pop out from the sockets! ¡°No... No... How can this be?! I am a sessor of ancient martial arts. I... was born for this apocalyptic world! You ought to die under my fists!¡± ¡°I should be standing at the top of the world, and you should be crawling at my feet...¡± Before he could finish, Feng Haotian¡¯s vitality was extinguished by sword energy. This [Baji Quan Grandmaster] copsed in a pool of blood with his burning ambition... Only Link remained standing with his sword. His grace was apodictic; he was like an immortal and a demon at the same time! Gulp! Many Evolvers swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, feeling extremely shocked! Feng Haotian is a top powerhouse at Stage Four, Level 7. He had even inherited ancient martial arts, yet he died just like that? Bafflement, surprise, fear... All sorts of emotions emerged on everyone¡¯s faces like a revolvingntern. The strong bloody scent crept straight into everyone¡¯s noses, setting a chill in their hearts. Some timid Evolvers even nearly wet their pants from the scare! In a brief period, this young man has already killed two Stage Four powerhouses? Does he really take Stage Four powerhouses to be cabbages? Does he actually think he can crush them as he wished? A soul-freezing chill rose from the bottom of the crowd¡¯s feet, making them feel as if they¡¯d fallen through a hole in the ice. They came for the City Building Token, but they unexpectedly provoked such a God of Killing! ¡°Demon Lord! Is he the Demon Lord?¡± ¡°He killed another Stage Four! What... is with this world?¡± ... Exmations rose unceasingly. Even Zhu Tianyang¡ªwho had prepared to strike Feng Haotian¡ªwas dazed for a moment as humming went off in his mind. However, he wasn¡¯t an ordinary man after all. He quickly recovered his senses and directly attacked Link like a sh of lightning. The feud had been sowed. The weak would perhaps beg for mercy, but Zhu Tianyang would not. Moreover, he could tell that the youth definitely wouldn¡¯t let him off given the youth¡¯s ruthlessness! This was because this youth¡¯s gaze was like a life-reaping God of Death... Crack! The splendid thunder snake danced, turning into a thunder spot. The silver lightning made it look as if Zhu Tianyang was about to destroy everything. Link long had his sights on Zhu Tianyang¡ªwho was at the side¡ªas well. [Holy Charge]! Like a sharp, golden sword, Link leaped ahead without looking back at Zhu Tianyang! This move and posture made all of Zhu Tianyang¡¯s hair stand on end, and the corners of his eyes twitched hard! How could he not remember that Monopoly¡¯s leader¡ªZhang Rongjiu¡ªhad been decapitated because of this skill earlier?! ¡°Thunder Lake Fall! Die! Die!¡± Following his yells, Zhu Tianyang¡¯s surroundings burst out with myriad lightning bolts like a silver ocean! Strokes of silver-colored electric currents flickered around him. After that, they poured down like a thunderke, and every thunderbolt directly shrouded the area! The roars never ceased! This ce seemed to turn into a lightning purgatory; it made one terrified. However, Link wasn¡¯t fearful in the least. As Link was charging, he was immune to all crowd control and damage. He could not be interrupted or stopped! Watching as Link swiftly swept in with no fear of the thunderbolts, Zhu Tianyang was extremely flustered in his heart. With a savage countenance, Zhu Tianyang grabbed a subordinate near him and pushed him toward Link, while he hurriedly dodged! Boom! The Evolver pushed out by Zhu Tianyang had his chest directly pierced through by the [King¡¯s Sword]. He was knocked back like a broken gunny sack,pletely devoid of vitality! Link had also rushed out of the thunder area. The longsword in his hand was raised high, and magnificent gold rays were shooting out of it! [Rage of the Holy Sword]! The biting sword intent struck towards Zhu Tianyang. Although Zhu Tianyang was a Stage Four powerhouse, Link possessed two professions. Hence, his attributes were even higher than Zhu Tianyang¡¯s! This strike was practically unavoidable for Zhu Tianyang! In the hopeless situation, a speck of insanity shed across the face of Thunder Pce¡¯s Lord. Zhu Tianyang pulled out an article from his bosom and snarled hysterically, ¡°Don¡¯t force me! I do not want to use this secret treasure!¡± Following his voice, Link also got a clear look at the item. It was a purple-colored crystal ball. Lightning shed inside it; the aura that emanated from it was even mightier than that of the earlier thunderke! This was the heavens¡¯ might. It was a punishment that came from the heavens, and thunder would devastate the world! Chapter 81: Might of the Forbidden Curse! A Sudden Change!

Chapter 81: Might of the Forbidden Curse! A Sudden Change!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Link¡¯s brows were slightly furrowed. The might of this secret item is clearly exceptional! Meanwhile, my [Holy Charge]¡ªwhich grants the invincibility effect¡ªis still in cooldown. However, one minute had already passed. Holy Angel Yuna¡¯s [Holy Light Beam] could be used once more at any time! Three seconds of invincibility and strong explosive power! Even when faced with the world-devastating thunder punishment, Link waspletely fearless. Seeing how Link continued to press hard, Thunder Pce¡¯s Lord¡ªZhu Tianyang¡¯s countenance became even more ferocious. The earlier ease and dominance were long gone. Presently, he was like a wild beast at the edge of a cliff¡ªhysterical and battered. Before Link¡¯s dazzling sword glow arrived, the piercing sword energy had already scored multiple cuts on Zhu Tianyang¡¯s face and clothes. Zhu Tianyang was both frightened and resentful. A hint of callousness shed across his eyes, and he instantly activated the secret treasure in his hand! In the twinkling of an eye, a terrifying suppression spread throughout the space at once. At this moment, it was as if chaos was about to hit the universe! It was a fearsome strength that made the hearts of all living creatures palpitate! In the distance, the crowd of Evolvers was trembling in their hearts as if a certain great terror was about to arrive! ¡°Rascal, no matter how exceptional you are, you will die!¡± Zhu Tianyang howled hysterically. As he watched the crystal ball dart into the air, a hint of heartache shed through his eyes! This crystal ball was a precious treasure that he¡¯d obtained from killing countless abyss monsters over thest seven days. It was also verypatible with his attributes. Possessing it would also enhance the possessor¡¯s thunder attribute skill might. At the same time, the possessor would have two chances to release an Epic-grade [Forbidden Curse]! The Epic-grade [Forbidden Curse] was a secondary-ss forbidden curse¡ªits might having just passed the threshold of forbidden curses¡ªso it was nothingpared to a Legend-grade forbidden curse or those of even higher grades. Even though this was the case, any magic that pertained to forbidden curses could be considered terrifying! Even though it was an Epic-grade [Forbidden Curse], it was a cmity with no solution to the Evolvers at this stage. This was originally thest trump card that Zhu Tianyang had kept hidden all this time. He had nned to use it during the Undead Tide in three days. But a Stage Three Summoner had now forced him to have no choice but to show hisst card. How could Zhu Tianyang not feel heartache? Exmations rose from all around unceasingly. ¡°This frightening suppression... It¡¯s a forbidden curse!¡± ¡°Damn! It¡¯s only the seventh day since the apocalyptic world descended, and someone has actually obtained a secret treasure that can release a forbidden curse?!¡± ¡°Run quickly! Regardless of grade, all forbidden curses have the might to destroy mountains and boil the oceans!¡± ¡°Even the repercussions aren¡¯t something we can resist! Quickly, get away from this ce!¡± Under the pressure of terror, all the Evolvers fled into the distance in panic! Meanwhile, Yang Xuerou, Xue Linglong, Qiao Ruowei, and the others had turned pale. They tightly clenched their fists, and their pretty faces were full of nervousness! That was a forbidden curse! A force that current Evolvers had absolutely no way of contending with! No matter how much confidence they had in Link, how could they not worry at this point? The few of them only regretted that they were unable to block this frightening forbidden curse for Link since they didn¡¯t have strong enough capabilities! In the cruel apocalyptic world, it was still the strong that ruled ultimately! Presently, they could only hope that Link could create a miracle once again! In the distance, a group of people¡ªwho kept looking at this side of Mingshi Hospital and did note close¡ªalso revealed startled expressions. ¡°Gosh, it¡¯s a forbidden curse!¡± ¡°This suppression is truly frightening!¡± ¡°Your Highness, the powerhouse that you spoke of is probably going to die... No... He will definitely die at the scene!¡± ¡°Nobody knows where Thunder Pce¡¯s Lord got such a secret treasure, honey! Truly scary!¡± Several young Evolvers¡ªwho clustered around Ou Chen¡ªeximed; they were awed by the forbidden curse¡¯s might. While this all happened, Ou Chen stared intently at the battle on the other side. His lips were tightly pursed, but he didn¡¯t utter a single word. He naturally did not wish to see the powerhouse¡ªwho he had his eye on¡ªdie! But faced with the forbidden curse... this hope appeared to be too extravagant. ... Within seconds, the crystal ball¡ªwhich radiated a bluish-purple glow¡ªflew into the air. Then, the sky suddenly became extremely oppressive! It was as if an imprable ck screen had shrouded Link! A roar suddenly exploded! In the sky, thunder snakes danced and jumped! The heavens¡¯ vast might and destructive aura swept downward! Silver thunder snakes gathered in the air. In the end, a massive thunder dragon¡ªwhich was several feet long¡ªactually appeared! The thunder dragon was extremely hideous. The dragon snake was angrily open as thunderbolts converged around its body. A frightening might echoed out from its body as if it were about to destroy everything and exterminate the world! Roar! The thunder dragon snarled. The roar¡ªwhich sounded like a primitive savage beast¡¯s howl¡ªand also the chirr of a massive brass bell resounded through the universe! The enormous thunder dragon¡ªtogether with the monstrous suppression and a sky full of thunder snakes¡ªrelentlessly charged toward Link! This was the forbidden curse in the crystal ball¡ª[Secondary?Rage of the Thunder Dragon]! How terrifying was the thunder dragon¡¯s might? Even though the Evolvers had already begun to escape, a dozen Stage Two¡ªand even Stage Three powerhouses¡ªwere still disintegrated into ashes by the thunder snakes then and there! They turned into [real scum1]! This was merely the remnant might that the thunder dragon let out! When the thunder dragon arrived, Link also lifted his head abruptly. Blue thunder rays reflected in his pair of deep and profound eyes; they were extremely peaceful. Yuna was his summoned creature. The two¡¯s minds were interlinked, so they couldmunicate using thoughts. Almost at the same time, golden holy light burst out from around Link! [Holy Light Beam]! At this moment, Link¡ªwho was facing the thunder dragon alone¡ªwas aloof and indifferent. His robes pped wildly as his back view remained upright like a spear. He seemed like an ancient immortal resisting the heavens and facing the heavens¡¯ punishment head-on! However, in everyone else¡¯s eyes, this figure appeared to be rather bleak and lonely, even heroic... After all, Link was facing magic at the level of forbidden curses! Boom! A terrifying explosion sounded. Everyone¡¯s ear membranes seemed to be torn apart as their minds buzzed! Fearsome cracks appeared on the ground, and gravel was crushed, stirring the smoke and dust into the air! The dustpletely concealed the scene in the center of the thunderstorm. It also covered that tall and proud figure! No one knew whether Link had already turned into ashes... ¡°Cough cough.¡± Zhu Tianyang¡¯s face was utterly pale; there wasn¡¯t a hint of blood. His body was also tottering. He was waving his hand with a light cough, dispelling the smoke and dust before him. Unleashing the forbidden curse was extremely taxing on him. Presently, his health directly dropped to 5%, and he was unable to release magic again. In other words, any burly man would be able to trample on the present Zhu Tianyang. In addition, this weak state wouldst for two days. However, Zhu Tianyang was very pleased with the forbidden curse¡¯s effect. To kill that fellow and seize the City Building Token... Everything was worth it! A few subordinates quickly came forward to support him. ¡°Is Lord alright?¡± asked a subordinate concernedly. Zhu Tianyang waved his hand. ¡°Just weak for a period of time. Go and get the secret treasure back; retrieve the City Building Token on that fellow as well.¡± The crystal ball could still demonstrate its might one more time, so Zhu Tianyang naturally had to retrieve it. The City Building Token was, all the more, his exclusive possession in his eyes! ¡°Hmph, this is the consequence of setting yourself against me!¡± Zhu Tianyang looked ahead¡ªwhere smoke and dust suffused¡ªand sneered coldly. But right then, an icy de suddenly surfaced from the front of Zhu Tianyang¡¯s face! Blood gushed out of Zhu Tianyang¡¯s mouth as he wore a look of terror! A man¡ªwho was supporting Zhu Tianyang¡ªsmiled and said, ¡°Thank you. You¡¯ve disposed of a troublesome thorn in my ck Dragon Gang¡¯s side. We shall not trouble you to participate in the subsequent matters. Rest well!¡± Boom! Zhu Tianyang¡¯s body copsed; his pair of eyes was filled with resentment and indignance! At the final critical moment, he¡¯d let the ck Dragon Gang sit idle and enjoy the fruits of hisbor! After getting rid of Zhu Tianyang, the man strode forward, about to seize the crystal ball and City Building Token that gradually fell from the sky. However, the next scene had everyone turn pale with fear! Chapter 82: The Manipulator Behind The Scenes! Unscathed From The Forbidden Curse!

Chapter 82: The Maniptor Behind The Scenes! Unscathed From The Forbidden Curse!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Everyone saw! Just as the ck Dragon Gang man was about to reach out and receive the slowly falling crystal space, a biting sword glow suddenly shot out from the space where smoke and dust clouded. Pu! The undercover mole¡ªwhich the ck Dragon Gang had nted in Thunder Pce¡ªhad a violent change in countenance as he let out a piteous shriek! ¡°Ah!¡± One of his arms was sliced off at the elbow. Fresh blood spurted everywhere like a bold schr sshing ink and wielding his writing brush! How could there be a sword ray? For a time, everyone was horrified! Is that person still alive?! Even a forbidden curse¡ªwhich had might capable of destroying mountains and overturning the seas¡ªwas unable to impair him? While the hearts of the masses palpitated wildly in their chests, like the beating of drums, an apathetic voice suddenly resonated in the area. ¡°That¡¯s all?¡± Only a brief two words, yet they seemed to carry contemtion and disdain! However, they spoke more than a thousand words, setting off an earth-shattering shock in the group of Evolvers¡¯ hearts! What that person faced earlier was a forbidden curse! Why does it sound like he thinks nothing of even a forbidden curse? Is he still human? Could it be that he really is an unstoppable Demon Lord? The ck Dragon Gang man¡ªwhose arm had been chopped off¡ªhad the corners of his eyes harshly twitch as cold sweat covered his forehead! The ck Dragon Gang had already existed before the apocalypse, and their senior members had even discerned some truths about the apocalypse. This was why they were able to rise up in the apocalyptic world so swiftly and strongly and infiltrate the various parties. However, this scene¡ªwhich surpassedmon sense¡ªstill caused deep fear to surge in his heart. The chill that prated his soul made him even more shocked than the immense pain of losing his arm. It shocked him to the point he even trembled! ¡°How is this possible? He can actually survive a forbidden curse? Only Evolvers at Stage Six and above have a slight possibility of doing so! But it¡¯s absolutely impossible for such powerhouses to appear at this point!¡± The ck Dragon Gang man shook his head harshly and howled in disbelief. But the only response he got was golden sword energy! The golden sword energy swept out from the smog, and this strike directly shed towards the man¡¯s head! Before the sword energy struck, the biting chill had already caused this ck Dragon Gang member¡¯s scalp to go numb! Behind the man, a tall and lean man with a stern gaze swooped forward with quick strides. His name was Zhao Feng. He was about 30 years of age, and he had an ordinary appearance. It could even be said that he was ugly. He had a hideous scar on his cheek. He was the one who thrust the longsword into Zhu Tianyang¡¯s chest and ended his life earlier. Presently, Zhao Feng dashed forward with a sword in hand. A scarlet-red glow flew from the cold de and crashed into the golden sword energy, seemingly wanting to erase this frightening blow! Zhao Feng¡¯s countenance wildly changed the instant the sword energy and sword wind collided; a speck of horror even shed through his eyes. The golden sword energy¡¯s might exceeded his imagination. One must know that he was a Silver-grade Fighter with a hidden profession, [Bloodthirsty desman]. At the same time, he was also a Stage Three, Level 5 powerhouse. Yet, he couldn¡¯t even block a Stage Three Summoner¡¯s sword energy now? How could Zhao Feng not feel rmed? His eyes were wide as he gritted his teeth so hard that they rattled. But his purlicue was still split within seconds, and his body was directly thrown back! The ck Dragon Gang man was also sent flying together with Zhao Feng. At this moment, footsteps sounded. A figure as tall and straight as a spear stepped out from the smoke. He wasn¡¯t walking fast, yet he instantly became the center of the space, the focus of the crowd. Every one of his footsteps seemed to be stepping on the hearts of the people. Unparalleled might, piercing dominance! It was Link! The crystal ball¡ªwhich had been falling slowly¡ªwas gripped in his hand by his five slender fingers. However, the situation had yet to be settled, and Link was not anxious to examine his gains. Instead, he turned his head slowly and looked around. His pair of deep and profound eyes carried an icy gaze; it made all the Evolvers frightened, and they unconsciously retreated! ¡°Demon Lord! Demon Lord! He really is a Demon Lord!¡± cried out someone in panic, frightened out of his wits. Meanwhile, Yang Xuerou andpany were suddenly relieved, and their beautiful eyes lit up. Some people¡¯s eyes even turned red, and tears almost fell. ¡°That¡¯s great! Lord is fine!¡± ¡°I knew it; how can my Brother Ling be someone you people can defeat? Before my Brother Ling, all of you are y chickens and pottery dogs¡ªtoo weak to withstand even a single blow!¡± Fatty Lu Da mored with a look of excitement. ... In the distance, the crowd from the Temple of Light¡ªwho was watching the battle¡ªwas also dumbstruck presently! ¡°Honey! No way, there is actually someone who can survive a forbidden curse!? Could this fellow really be a Demon Lord? It is said that a scourge never dies!¡± eximed someone with a look full of disbelief. Even the few Temple of Light Elders found it difficult to remain calm at this moment. The corners of their mouth twitched. ¡°Shut up!¡± The Son of Light, Ou Chen, said with sparkling eyes, ¡°What scourge? That is a powerhouse that I picked out! He is naturally extraordinary!¡± An Elder nodded lightly and said in a deep voice, ¡°He is indeed exceptional. My Temple of Light can only be on friendly terms with such a character. We cannot offend him.¡± Another Elder also nodded andmented with a solemn countenance. ¡°Mm, we indeed ought to strike up a friendship. We happen to have information on an area full of monsters in our hands. We might have the chance to work together with this person!¡± Ou Chen smiled; he knew that the powerhouse he¡¯d picked out was outstanding enough. Look, even the Temple of Light Elders immediately regarded Link in a new light! ... Link surveyed those Evolvers expressionlessly and slowly lifted his longsword. ¡°ck Dragon Gang; it¡¯s you people again. It seems like the greater part of the reason why these forces appeared here is due to your instigations behind the scene.¡± Link had also heard the ck Dragon Gang members¡¯ earlier words. Given his wit, he naturally understood theplexities behind all the events immediately. This ck Dragon Gang was rather ambitious; they wanted to seize the City Building Token but feared his capabilities. Hence, they used the other forces in Dragon City as their tools, while they waited to reap the benefits as a third party. When Link pointed things out, the Evolvers were also enlightened. Some powerful members of Thunder Pce, World Society, and Monopoly even cast resentful gazes at the ck Dragon Gang members. Link killed their leader, so he was naturally abominable. But at the heart of everything, it was all the ck Dragon Gang sowing discord! Compared to Link, their resentment for the ck Dragon Gang would only be greater! ¡°Go! Leave this ce as fast as possible!¡± Zhao Feng yelled. Even he felt nervous in his heart when being coldly watched by so many people. Of course, the one he feared the most was still Link¡ªwho was standing with a sword in hand. This man was virtually like a supernatural being! Link also chuckled coldly, and he pressed down his palm. ¡°Kill!¡± As thismand fell, God Devourer Ant, the six-winged Holy Angel Yuna, Star Moon, and all the summoned creatures moved. Even Xue Linglong and the others behind Link also charged over. Zhao Feng andpany were instantly frightened out of their wits and fled miserably! However, how could they¡ªwho¡¯d already incurred public wrath¡ªescape the fate of death? Splendid holy light, sword energy, and de gleams glistened as light rays of all colors shrouded the ce! Within a few breaths, several ck Dragon Gang members were blown to pieces on the spot! Chapter 83: Rage of the Thunder Dragon! More Tool Workers!

Chapter 83: Rage of the Thunder Dragon! More Tool Workers!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios The most capable Zhao Feng also had both his arms sliced off, and he copsed in a pool of blood. His face was covered in fresh blood as he roared hysterically, ¡°Link, you killed so many of my ck Dragon Gang people! Doctor Ghost and the gang leader absolutely will not let you off!¡± ¡°Our Master is about to arrive! You will certainly die in despair and fear, a thousand¡ªmillion times more wretched than me!¡± Link made noment. He only expressionlessly stated, ¡°I must exterminate the ck Dragon Gang.¡± When his words fell, a resplendent sword ray shed down. The area instantly fell silent; there were no other sounds. The crowd of Evolvers from Thunder Pce, World Society, and Monopoly looked at Link¡¯s handsome and aloof face, and they all felt a chill in their hearts. Some people took to their heels because of their inward fear, but Yuna, God Devourer Ant, and Star Moon blocked their route of retreat one step ahead of them! The six pure-white wings behind Yuna pped lightly, radiating a holy glow. However, there was only iciness on her stunning face. God Devourer Ant¡¯s massive mandibles gleamed with a cold glow; its body even burst forth with a savage, ferocious beast¡¯s monstrous suppression, making one fearful! Star Moon also turned into Chimera form. Its threerge heads were held high as a startling glow shot out of all six vertical pupils! All the Evolvers almost wet their pants. Faced with such a circumstance, how would they be able to escape? The demon lord-like man had absolutely no intention of letting them leave! A Stage Three powerhouse spoke up, threatening in manner but cowardly at heart. ¡°Link, are you going to set yourself against so many of us? You must know that we have close to 1,000 people here. Even if you have greatbat prowess, you definitely won¡¯t be able to resist when so many of us are striking together!¡± Someone soon spoke up in reply. ¡°Exactly! There is strength in numbers; if you make us desperate, you won¡¯t have an easy time either!¡± ¡°Why don¡¯t you let us leave? We¡¯ll bothpromise!¡± ¡°Link, if you¡¯re worried that we will take revenge after leaving, it¡¯s totally unnecessary.¡± ¡°This matter began with the ck Dragon Gang sowing discord behind the scenes, so we ought to take revenge on ck Dragon Gang together!¡± Fear showed on a person¡¯s face as he begged piteously, ¡°Link¡ªDemon Lord! Let us leave! We promise that we will never attack you again!¡± ¡°Yes! You are magnanimous as a great person. Please let us off!¡± ... Voices sounded without end. Link only had a peaceful countenance; he didn¡¯t have the slightest intention of letting them go. Yang Xuerou, Xue Linglong, and the rest just stood behind Link, each holding their own weapons. They did not say a word and watched this group of Evolvers with cold gazes. They could not forget how this bunch of people had arrived menacingly earlier. They mored about seizing the City Building Token,pletely disregarding them and even treating Link as nothing. Now they¡¯re scared? Toote! Even the kind-hearted Yang Xuerou also wore an extremely icy expression on her beautiful face at this point. It looked like frost had covered it. One must know that the tragic plight¡ªwhich they would be facing if Link didn¡¯t have his means and survived the forbidden curse earlier¡ªcould practically be foreseen! This bunch of people wouldn¡¯t have given them an easy time at all. It was even highly likely that their lives would be made a living hell... In these chilly troubled times, there was absolutely no way of surviving if one wasn¡¯t ruthless. Even if Link presently ordered them to kill all of these Evolvers, Xue Linglong andpany would not have another word. After experiencing many things, they had iparable trust in the orders that Link gave. They would not question him at all. Upon seeing how Link remained without a word and unmoved, the crowd of Evolvers was flustered. The people begging for mercy were a growing number. After all, this person before them was a man who killed two Stage Four powerhouses and survived a forbidden curse. It didn¡¯t allow them not to fear. ¡°Hmph, they know to beg for mercy now? Weren¡¯t they calling us nobodies earlier? You people are just despicable!¡± said Fatty Lu Da indignantly. Earlier, he almost believed that Link would meet his death in the forbidden curse; hence, he was naturally ill-disposed toward these people. Meanwhile, Link stood in a pool of blood. The crimson red, broken limbs, and bits of flesh everywhere were a horrifying sight. He thrust the [King¡¯s Sword] in his hands into the ground. Standing with an upright sword, Link appeared majestic yet contemptuous! His response to the masses was only an emotionless utterance: ¡°Submit or die!¡± There were so many Evolvers here¡ªall of them were an upper-ssbor force that could be put to work as tool workers. There were even earth attribute mages among them. To Link¡ªwho wanted to speed up the city building progress¡ªkilling all of these Evolvers was truly quite a waste. It would be better to make good use of them. In the apocalyptic world, the most worthless thing was human life. But in order to develop, the most important thing was also human life. Link did not want to be the lone wolf of his previous lifetime. If he lived the same way once again, his life would have lost its meaning. Moreover, these people wouldn¡¯t be able to cause any trouble in his hands when he had Super God-grade summoned creatures watching them. Link¡¯s icy cold voice resounded through the air. Everyone was momentarily stunned. The man before them was no different from a Demon Lord in their eyes. They did not doubt the legitimacy of thisment at all. Following that, some people revealed looks of difficulty, while others directly knelt towards Link. ¡°I¡¯m willing to submit¡ªwilling to pledge my allegiance!¡± With someone taking the lead, the nking sounds of weapons dropping to the ground soon rang continuously. On this day, close to 1,000 Evolvers threw off all their gear and bowed to Link together! Link arranged for Fatty Lu Da and God Devourer Ant to admit these people and make the best use of them. Link took out the crystal ball he obtained previously and examined it carefully. In his palm, the crystal ball radiated a bluish-purple glow and a vast aura. Lightning glimmered inside it; there seemed to be a thunder dragon swimming inside it, particrly umon. ¡°This is the secret treasure that can release a forbidden curse?¡± Yang Xuerou¡¯s red lips were slightly parted; she felt somewhat amazed. Link nodded lightly. Other than that bunch of tool workers, this secret treasure that could release a forbidden curse was his greatest harvest from today¡¯s battle! At the same time, a notification entered Link¡¯s mind. [Rage of the Thunder Dragon] Grade: Epic (iplete) Introduction: A sacred bead containing inexhaustible thunder. Rumor has it that it was made by the ancient God of Thunder¡¯s worship priest. There is an insufficient amount of its source in present times; hence, it is in an iplete state. Strength: 600 Intelligence: 750 Constitution: 533 Agility: 611 Additional skill 1: [Thunder Blessing] (Passive Skill): User can receive the good graces of thunder. Might increases by 300% when casting thunder attribute spells. Additional skill 2: [Rage of the Thunder Dragon] (Active Skill): Usable frequency (1/2).

[Secondary?Rage of the Thunder Dragon]¡ªlowly mortals, tremble in the roar of the thunder dragon! Note: When the number of uses has been exhausted, it will automatically destroy itself. ... After reading this crystal ball¡¯s information, Link¡¯s breathing had faintly be slightly heavier. This is indeed a weapon of mass destruction. Not only can it amplify thunder attribute spells, but it can also cast forbidden curses with powerful might. If it weren¡¯t because the forbidden curse can only be cast one more time, it would be enough to surpass the average legend-grade equipment. Link was filled with anticipation. What kind of transformation will it undergo under my [Supreme Blessing]? In the next moment, a splendid glow lit up. The crystal ball¡ªwhich sparkled with lightning within¡ªslowly floated into the air as the glow wrapped all around it. Indistinctly, a terrifying aura radiated from the crystal ball. Even the skies instantly turned dark, and ck clouds hung low over the city! Chapter 84: Bead of Thunder Punishment! Territory Skill!

Chapter 84: Bead of Thunder Punishment! Territory Skill!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios All the Evolvers wore looks of terror as they looked up at the sky in shock. ¡°What¡¯s happening? Is there another person who used a forbidden curse?¡± someone asked in surprise. Another person thought nothing of it. ¡°Don¡¯t overthink. It¡¯s probably going to rain; anyway, is a forbidden curse that easy to acquire?¡± ... Very soon, the blessing ended. The crystal ball fell back into Link¡¯s hands again. However, the aura currently radiating from the crystal ball was even more terrifying than before! At the same time, a notification entered Link¡¯s mind. [Bead of Thunder Punishment] Grade: Legend Introduction: The ancient God of Thunder¡¯s favorite essory. Tainted with the frightening forces of thunder, it can turn into a deathly thunder tribtion, dispelling evil! Strength: 800 Intelligence: 1,122 Constitution: 633 Agility: 711 Additional skill 1: [Thunder Blessing] (Passive Skill): User can receive the good graces of thunder.

Additional skill 3: [Heaven¡¯s Wrath Thunder Punishment] (Active Skill): User can trigger forces of thunder within the sacred bead to release Legend-grade Forbidden Curse, [Forged?Heaven¡¯s Wrath Thunder Punishment]. This is the dignity of the heavens; the brilliant lightning will certainly destroy everything! Lasts 30 minutes. Cooldown time: six hours. Note: No limitations on usage count, but after multiple usages, it has to be charged for a very long time before it can be used again. ... After reading this [Bead of Thunder Punishment]¡¯s information, even a person as indifferent as Link involuntarily felt a surge of heat in his heart. This item was too powerful! Just the ability to release a Legend-grade forbidden curse would probably cause countless others to be envious if they were to learn about it! So much so that numerous great forces would stir because of it. They would try to seize it, even if it meant breaking their heads. Most importantly, this was a territorial treasure! The bead¡¯s passive skill, [Territory of Thunder], could construct a thunder field! If they were to ce this precious bead in the center of the built city, the damage the blow could deal to someone if they were to attack the city could be foreseen! For the Undead cmity that would be taking ce in three days, this skill would be even better than the forbidden curse! This territorial treasure was what Link currently needed the most. He wouldn¡¯t exchange it even for a Myth-grade treasure. With this, Link¡¯s certainty of defending against the Undead cmity was undoubtedly much greater! After cing the [Bead of Thunder Punishment] into his storage space, the dull sky instantly became a cloudless blue sky. Link did not return to his room to rest. Instead, he looked in the southwest direction with his brows slightly furrowed. Previously, Seraphim Yuna hadmunicated with him through her thoughts. Yuna told Link that a group of humans with unusual auras was in that direction and that they¡¯d been watching themotion the whole time. ¡°Link, did you find any problems?¡± Luo Xingyao¡ªwho was quietly watching Link from the side¡ªasked this question out loud when she saw him frown. ¡°It seems that there are still people who refuse to give up their evil designs,¡± stated Link coldly and headed in the southwest direction. Luo Xinghe, Luo Xinghe, and the others quickly followed. Far out, inside a dpidated building. ¡°We seem to have been found,¡± said a Temple of Light Elder in a low voice with slightly narrowed eyes. A few more hints of nervousness appeared on the faces of some Temple of Light members. ¡°That Demon Lord-like fellow is walking towards us!¡± ¡°He¡¯s not thinking of attacking us, is he? It¡¯s quite scary!¡± The Son of Light, Ou Chen, shook his head. ¡°He won¡¯t. We did not set ourselves against him. Although Link appears to be ferocious, he¡¯s usually very easy-going. I¡¯ll go andmunicate with him. Such a powerhouse must join our Temple of Light!¡± ¡°I¡¯ve already done an investigation on him. I¡¯ve done enough preparations, so even if it means begging him, I must make him join us this time.¡± Ou Chen looked full of determination and exhration. His eyes seemed to be sparkling. He had already put the matter of being rejected by Link behind¡ªthe typical ¡®once on shore one prays no more.¡¯ ¡°Cough cough.¡± A Temple of Light Elder¡¯s face twitched slightly as he coughed. ¡°Your Highness, we know you mean well for the temple. But before outsiders, you still have to take note of your bearing as the son of a god...¡± Ou Chen had already gone downstairs before the Elder could finish, heading towards Link. All of the Temple of Light¡¯s Evolvers felt a slight headache. They could only chase after Ou Chen¡¯s back and shout, ¡°Restraint... Your Highness, you have to exercise restraint!¡± ... At the empty space in front of the building. Link had arrived, and he noticed that slightly familiar figure. ¡°Ou Chen.¡± Within seconds, all sorts of thoughts shed through Link¡¯s heart. Did the Temple of Light also participate in the various forces¡¯ encirclement of Mingshi Hospital this time? But ording to my impressions from my previous lifetime, the Temple of Light is considered to be an upright organization, even though not all of its members can be called good people. This is a little odd. ¡°Link, you still remember me? That¡¯s wonderful! Have you made up your mind about my suggestion previously? In this brutal apocalyptic world, us humans ought to band together for warmth. Hence, joining my Temple of Light is absolutely your best choice!¡± ¡°You must know that my Temple of Light is an organization with a long-standing legacy. We have many ancient works left behind from the distant ages. They will definitely be able to help you advance as quickly as possible...¡± Ou Chen rattled away, his whole face glowing. ¡°Cough cough!¡± The Temple of Light Elder really could not continue to watch on. He cut off Ou Chen¡¯s words with a cough. This child is really too senseless. Can¡¯t you see that the person is wearing an indifferent look and not responding to you at all? Will showing excessive passion toward an aloof person work? The Elder gave the few people around him a look. The son of a god¡ªwho was embarrassing the Temple of Light¡ªwas immediately dragged away. The Elder would personally negotiate with Link. ¡°You people want the City Building Token in my hands too?¡± There wasn¡¯t much emotion in Link¡¯s voice, and his expression was icy. ¡°No, no.¡± A chill rose in the Elder¡¯s heart as he hurriedly shook his head. ¡°As a matter of fact, we are actually here to lend you an arm, Sir. Who would have thought your skills would be so extraordinary? Before we even acted, you took care of Thunder Pce, World Society, and other organizations¡ªtruly amazing!¡± The Elder said this with a serious countenance. His words were considered the truth too. The Temple of Light¡¯s senior members wanted to recruit Link after listening to Ou Chen¡¯s report. Thus, they naturally wouldn¡¯t allow him to die in the hands of the other gangs. As for the City Building Token, this was also where the Temple of Light¡¯s thinking was brilliant. If Link were to take refuge with them, the City Building Token would naturally be the Temple of Light¡¯s possession. They didn¡¯t need to be viins at all. ¡°No need to speak about canvassing. Since you aren¡¯t an enemy, let¡¯s part ways here.¡± Link had no mood to wrangle with the Temple of Light. After confirming that they had no animosity, Link turned to leave. Upon seeing Link leave immediately, the Temple of Light elder¡¯s face instantly fell! This rascal isn¡¯t ying his cards ording to convention! Shouldn¡¯t he make small talk for a while to build friendly rtions? ¡°Hold on, my Temple of Light has a piece of information that I believe you will definitely be interested in!¡± ¡°Oh.¡± Link faltered slightly in his steps... Chapter 85: Previous Era! Historical Ruins?

Chapter 85: Previous Era! Historical Ruins?

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios The Elder from the Temple of Light didn¡¯t procrastinate and instantly said, ¡°Our members found arge number of elite Undead creatures in Dragon City¡¯s southern wilderness. There are even traces of a boss-level creature¡ªDark Magus!¡± Dark Magus! Stage Three leader-level creature! A light shed in Link¡¯s eyes as he stopped walking. It should be known that the most powerful amongst humans had reached Stage Four at this point in time. However, the attributes of a leader-level creature were much stronger than humans of the same stage. If humans wanted to kill a Stage Three leader-level creature at this current phase, they would need to group up and fight as a team. Unique individuals withbat power that far exceeded normal humans were an exception. Humans like Link¡ªwho had Taboo-grade professions¡ªwere, of course, an exception too. With three Super God-grade summoned creatures, Link alone was an entire army. He was even able to kill enemies of a higher stage than him! The EXP and item reward from killing a Stage Three leader-level creature were something that normal humans would covet. But since he was someone who had killed an overlord-level creature, this reward wasn¡¯t enough to tempt Link. What truly caused him to stop was a suspicion, or rather a possibility. If this suspicion proved to be true, it would really be a great surprise! It would even severely affect his future progression. Link slightly turned his head around and expressionlessly said, ¡°I don¡¯t think there¡¯s only one Stage Three monster in that ce, right?¡± Originally, a slight smile had appeared on the Elder¡¯s face when he saw Link stop. Now, following these cold words, the smile on his face instantly froze. While feeling horrified, a suspicion arose in the Elder¡¯s heart. Could it be that Link knows about the ce I am referring to?! Another Elder¡¯s expression also turned solemn at the side, and he said in a heavy tone, ¡°You are right. If it¡¯s only one Stage Three leader-level creature, there isn¡¯t a need to share this piece of information with you. The Temple of Light would naturally send an elite team to clear out the ce.¡± ¡°But ording to our people¡¯s investigation, we discovered not just one Stage Three creature there, but at least five. What¡¯s more, there¡¯s even a Stage Four overlord-level Necromancer at the center of this ce. This is why we shared this piece of information with you. We hope that you can head there with us to kill the creatures there to obtain EXP and items.¡± Upon hearing this, Link¡¯s heart rate quickened by a bit, but his expression was still apathetic. A Stage Four overlord-level creature was practically undefeatable by humans at this period of time! At this current stage, a ce where such a powerful creature appeared was definitely extraordinary¡ªjust like how Mingshi Cemetery was where the City of the Undead was located. If the ce weren¡¯t special or unusual, it wouldn¡¯t have attracted so many powerful creatures. After being reborn back in time, ording to what he knew, Link remembered that the Temple of Light seemed to have discovered a historical ruin somewhere near Dragon City in his past life. This historical ruin had brought great benefits to the Temple of Light, and it was even rumored to be left by creatures from the previous era! It¡¯s very likely that this historic ruin is the ce the Elder is referring to right now! It looks like I¡¯m bound to the Temple of Light by fate; they actually came to give me such a great benefit! The City of the Undead was one of benefit, and this ce¡ªwhich was possibly the Epochal Ruins¡ªwas another. In his previous life, Link didn¡¯t know the historical ruin¡¯s location, and he lost the opportunity to obtain it because the Temple of Light found it first. But how would he miss such an opportunity this lifetime? Link turned around and stretched his hand toward the Temple of Light Elder. His expression was slightly warmer as he said, ¡°Let¡¯s cooperate well together.¡± It wasn¡¯t appropriate to give this Elder¡ªwho came to his doorstep to present him such an opportunity¡ªa cold face anymore. The Elder was slightly dazed. Then, a smile appeared on the Elder¡¯s face as he grabbed Link¡¯s hand tightly. The Elder said from the bottom of his heart, ¡°Let¡¯s work well together.¡± After all, through this time¡¯s cooperation, they would be building a friendly rtionship with a demon lord who could kill Stage Four beings. Also, the most important thing was that the Temple of Light¡¯s mission would be much safer this time with Link¡¯s help. If this Elder knew that the Temple of Light would lose a huge benefit this time because of this cooperation, he would probably die on the spot from crying! Link and the Elder then negotiated over the specific matters, such as how they would split the rewards from killing the creatures. After everything was negotiated, Ou Chen was finally released. Sizing Link up and down, Ou Chen suddenly said, ¡°Link, why didn¡¯t you eat the [Fruit of Light] that I gave you previously?¡± Being the son of a god, Ou Chen could sense that Link¡¯s attribute didn¡¯t turn into the light attribute¡ªwhich should be the case if he had eaten the [Fruit of Light]. This was why he asked. With a calm expression, Link said, ¡°The [Fruit of Light] already belongs to me, so you don¡¯t need to care about how I use it.¡± Ou Chen instantly became anxious. The reason he gave Link the [Fruit of Light] was because he hoped that Link would have a sense of closeness and belonging to the Temple of Light after his attribute turned into the light attribute. But it now looked like his n had failed! Upon hearing that Ou Chen gave the [Fruit of Light] to Link, the corner of the Elder¡¯s eyes twitched. This prodigal! That¡¯s a treasure that can greatly increase one¡¯s power¡ªsomething that others will fight over with their lives! Coughing slightly, the Elder said, ¡°Cough cough, since we havepleted the negotiations, we shan¡¯t stay much longer. We need to go back and make preparations now. We shall converge at the south of Dragon City tomorrow morning.¡± Link naturally didn¡¯t have any objections. Leading Xue Linglong and the others along, he turned around and left. There wasn¡¯t anything to be said for the night; Link spent the night meditating and recovering his mental spirit. ... The eighth day of the apocalypse. When the sky had only just started to light up, Link had already brought Xue Linglong and Luo Xingyao along with him to the south of the city. As for the others¡ªincluding the God Devourer Ant¡ªLink had left them behind to protect the base. South of Dragon City. A group of people was already waiting here. There were about ten of them, and all of them were elites. Their auras were all quite strong. Their leader was the Elder who negotiated with Link previously¡ªTian Mingyuan, Elder Tian. There was also a second leader, who was a burly-looking, middle-aged man. Seeing Link walking over, both of them smiled kindly at him. ¡°Link, right? You are really young and promising. I have heard about you, and I am delighted that you will be joining us this time. My name is Wu Hao.¡± The tower-like, middle-aged man self-introduced himself in a low and hoarse voice. Link only nodded toward the two leaders, not saying anything. ¡°With Link¡¯s participation, we will definitely be able to kill the Stage Four overlord-level creature.¡± The socializer, Ou Chen, had already walked up close to Link. ¡°Since everyone¡¯s here, let¡¯s move out.¡± Elder Tian waved his hand and spoke, not giving their son of god a chance to say too much. Link slightly nodded and followed the Temple of Light¡¯s team with Xue Linglong and Luo Xingyao. Ever since the apocalypse descended, the wilderness had practically been upied by monsters. Unless a person had no other choice or the person was quite strong, no one would be willing to step foot in the wilderness. As for this team of people from the Temple of Light, it was obvious that they were all quite powerful. All were either high-leveled Stage Two existences or had reached Stage Three. As for their leaders¡ªElder Tian and Wu Hao¡ªboth of them gave off a terrifying aura that belonged to a Stage Four being! Originally, Link was still guessing if his rebirth had affected the Temple of Light¡¯s future achievements. But it now looked like the factions¡ªwhich had a profound heritage¡ªwere indeed quite extraordinary... Chapter 86: Enter the Wilderness! The truth of the Apocalypse!

Chapter 86: Enter the Wilderness! The truth of the Apocalypse!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios On their way to their destination, they encountered several waves of skeleton monsters and Undead Knights. Without a need for Link and his people to help, the Temple of Light¡¯s team of people easily killed these monsters. A solemn expression appeared on both Xue Linglong¡¯s and Luo Xingyao¡¯s faces. Both of them came to a consensus: These people are very strong! Whether it was their cooperation or their means, they were definitely not something the mob of Evolvers from yesterday couldpare with! Luo Xingyao rushed up a few steps and softly said to Link, ¡°Lord, these people have probably gained insights on certain things through their inheritance. If not, it¡¯s impossible for them to reach such a stage at the start of the apocalypse.¡± Indeed, the depth of the Temple of Light¡¯s knowledge and resources in this apocalyptic world was so unfathomable that it wasn¡¯t normal. When it came to Stage Fourbat power alone, this Temple of Light team already had two such existences! Also, this was only what Link had seen so far. It definitely wasn¡¯t the Temple of Light¡¯s entire strength! At the very least, the Temple of Light¡¯s leader still hadn¡¯t appeared... Link nodded lightly. Luo Xingyao¡¯s words caused him to think about the World Society¡¯s President¡ªwho he beheaded yesterday. That person was an ancient martial arts heir. In Link¡¯s previous life, people who were ancient martial art heirs either died halfway or became powerful beings. For example, the Spring and Autumn Sword Technique¡¯s heir saved the five home cities from destruction. Link couldn¡¯t help but suspect that the inheritances from ancient times were linked to the apocalypse. After all, it seemed like these inheritances were all prepared for the apocalypse. Combined with the rumor he heard from his previous life that the historical ruin the Temple of Light found was left behind by creatures from the previous era... Link vaguely felt that he seemed to have captured a corner of the truth... This cruel apocalypse... Is it a game of the gods or the cycle of fate? Link desperately wanted to enter that ce¡ªwhich seemed to be a historical ruin from the previous era¡ªand explore the truth! ... The team marched into a forest in the wilderness. ¡°Stop.¡± The Temple of Light¡¯s Elder Tian suddenly raised his hand to stop everyone. Link¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly, and his aura became slightly more dangerous. He could perceive that there were some cold auras faintly emanating from in front. Stage Three leader-level monsters were gathered there at the very least. ¡°The ce in front is where the Necromancer is. This type of overlord-level monster has a strong sense of territory. As soon as we step into its territory, it means that the battle has begun. All of you get ready!¡± said Wu Hao in a deep voice. As light flowed in his hand, he tightly held on to a halberd¡ªwhich was vibrating with brilliance. All of the Temple of Light¡¯s people became solemn and got ready for battle. Even Ou Chen¡ªwho behaved improperly most of the time¡ªalso tightly pressed his lips together and held a staff. A faint light appeared all over his body! ¡°The light is eternal! Attack!¡± Following thismand, the Temple of Light¡¯s people all strode out inrge steps, their aura vast and majestic. Link also held the [King¡¯s Sword] and led Xue Linglong and others into that dangerous territory. In the twinkling of an eye, everyone felt a strong breath of death blowing toward them. The surrounding temperature seemed to drop suddenly. ¡°Intruders, die!¡± A hoarse roar sounded. Undead Knights¡ªwhich were wandering around the periphery¡ªwere the first to spot them. The Undead Knights rode on their undead horses and charged toward them! Crack! An icy spear¡ªshining with a green glow¡ªtore through the air and pierced toward Wu Hao¡¯s chest. A look of disdain shed in Wu Hao¡¯s eyes, and the halberd in his hand pierced out like a dragon flying out of the water! Wu Hao actually tossed the Undead Knight into the air along with its horse with just this strike! A few arrows then flew through the air¡ªbringing along a golden stream of light¡ªand instantly pierced into the Undead Knight¡¯s body, which was still in the air. This Stage Two, Level 8 elite creature¡ªwhich was close to reaching Stage Three¡ªwas instantly killed. It was unable to retaliate at all! At the side, Elder Tian Mingyuan, Ou Chen, and the other mages¡¯ chanting had also ended! Suddenly, a huge golden ball of light fell from the sky like a meteorite crashing to the ground! Rich golden light bloomed and burst out, killing dozens of Death Knights instantly. There was also a person with the Priest profession that waved out streams of light to buff everyone with positive effects. This was an elite team that cooperated with familiarity and had almost all aspects covered¡ªpowerful and efficient! As for Link¡¯s side, it was much simpler. Holy Angel Yuna used [Holy Light Beam], leaving only a few Undead Knights still alive. Then, these remaining Undead Knights¡¯ skulls were quickly crushed by Xue Linglong¡¯s [Spear of the Frosty Moon]! These monsters were too weak for Link to take notice of. He was toozy to hunt and kill them, so he let Xue Linglong and Luo Xingyao kill them to gain EXP. Xue Linglong¡¯s looks were already very outstanding in the first ce, and she was called the iceberg beauty. Her aura became even colder following the continuous improvement of her profession¡¯s¡ª[Extreme Ice Combat Maiden]¡ªabilities. She was like a snow lotus carved from ice and snow on the top of the mountain, transcending the world. At this moment, even her appearance of holding a spear and fighting brazenly also looked extremely stunning! Luo Xingyao held the [Bow of Elf], and her movements were also fairy-like. Each of her arrows hit their mark, making her look equally beautiful! Many of the Temple of Light Evolvers nced at them from time to time, almost dumbfounded by their beauty. Stage Two monsters couldn¡¯t stop them at all, and the group kept advancing. Deep in the mountains, a roar full of resentment resounded! ¡°What a disgusting scent. You people actually dare to disturb us? All of you will pay for this with your lives!¡± A strong breath of death soon blew into their faces. Five Dark Magi appeared in front of everyone, a terrifying power of death rippling from their staffs. There were also many Death Knights surrounding the ce, seemingly plunging the group of humans into a sea of Undead! At this moment, even the Temple of Light¡¯s Stage Four beings¡ªWu Hao and Tian Mingyuan¡ªhad slightly more solemn expressions on their faces. After all, there were many monsters here¡ªas well as Stage Three leader-level bosses. If they were not careful, their team would suffer heavy losses! This was why they formed an alliance with Link! ¡°Everyone, be careful!¡± reminded Tian Mingyuan and immediately started waving with his staff while chanting! Link nodded slightly, his interest finally piqued. The battle was about to start at any moment. The ce was immediately enveloped by various magic lights and weapon shadows! Boom! The loud explosions never ceased! Undead Knights continuously fell to the ground, disappearing with the wind. A Stage Three [Dark Magus] was even brutally beheaded by Link¡¯s sword! [Ding! You sessfully killed a Dark Magus. Gained 5,000 EXP!] [Ding! You sessfully killed an Undead Knight. Gained 100 EXP!] ... [Ding! Congrattions on sessfully leveling up to Stage Three, Level 2!] Everyone was fighting steadily, and Link and two powerful Stage Four beings were also looking over them. Hence, there were no casualties so far. However, the Undead creatures¡¯ continuous deaths seemed to have angered certain existences in the depths of the mountains. An rmingly angry roar sounded! ¡°Humans, you shall die in fear and despair!¡± At the same time, the densely packed team of Undead Knights suddenly separated in the middle as if to wee a higher-ranking existence! A sinister and cold aura pounced onto the humans¡¯ faces, and a powerful pressure came with it! The Temple of Light¡¯s people looked at each other with nervous faces. They knew that their main enemy was about to appear! But almost everyone¡¯s hearts violently shrank the next moment! Chapter 87: Above Overlord Level! Moths Flying Into a Fire?

Chapter 87: Above Overlord Level! Moths Flying Into a Fire?

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios The Temple of Light¡¯s Evolvers were horrified, and their mouths unconsciously opened slightly! They felt cold all over, and they felt like a cold palm had violently gripped their hearts. ¡°How can this be?!¡± Even Elder Tian and Wu Hao¡ªwho were both Stage Four existences¡ªfound it hard to remain calm. Their faces were full of solemnity! Ou Chen even jumped on the spot, disregarding his manners as the Son of Light! ¡°Damn it! Who provided the information? We were told there was only one Necromancer! Why did three appear?¡± At this moment, three Necromancers appeared in front of them! A terrifying aura shook the air, and three figures shrouded in ck robes came toward them together! Strong deathly energy gushed out, dyeing this entire ce dark-green! Everyone seemed to have entered the kingdom of death. Stage Four overlord-level bosses¡ªnightmares that humans could hardly contend against at this current stage! Yet, three of these nightmares actually appeared here! This was a powerful enough force to destroy an entire city! Who wouldn¡¯t be frightened upon facing this situation? But Link still looked calm. Instead, a sharp glow shed in his deep eyes! It should be noted that before the Scourge started to run rampant, Stage Four monsters were extremely rare! Moreover, overlord-level monsters generally had their own territories and wouldn¡¯t gather in one ce. For three of them to appear at the same time here, the only possible reason is... There is a more terrifying existence here! That existence is the real master here, and these three Necromancers are just its subordinates! This has increasingly proved that this ce is unusual! When Link was thinking about this, Ou Chen said solemnly, ¡°Link, this time it¡¯s the Temple of Light¡¯s intelligence which contained a mistake, causing us to drag you guys down with us! If you have a chance to escape from this deadly ce, don¡¯t hesitate! The Temple of Light¡¯s members are willing to block off the enemies for you!¡± Link nced at Ou Chen. Although Ou Chen often behaved quite improperly, he was rather awe-inspiring during a critical moment and would uphold his responsibility. Wu Hao and Elder Tian both nodded their heads in acknowledgment of Ou Chen¡¯s words. This time, it was indeed the Temple of Light¡¯s fault. A touch of perseverance shed on Xue Linglong¡¯s pretty face as she said, ¡°I am willing to block off the enemy for my Lord!¡± Luo Xingyao also gritted her silver teeth and said resolutely, ¡°Me too!¡± Being Link¡¯s followers, they knew that Link was extraordinary. They knew that Link had killed a Necromancer when he was still a Stage Two existence. However, there was more than one Necromancer here, and there were also densely packed, high-level Undead creatures surrounding them too. The situation was extremely dangerous now! Link¡¯s heart warmed slightly. In the apocalypse, it wasmon to witness the evil in people¡¯s hearts. It was rare to see someone willing to die for another person. He looked at the three figures in the distance¡ªwhich had death energy rippling from their bodies¡ªand smiled indifferently. ¡°This is not a deadly situation.¡± When the words fell, Link sent Yuna a thought through his mind. Holy Angel Yuna slightly nodded, grabbed Link¡¯s arm, vibrated her white wings, and flew high. Elder Tian sighed and said, ¡°Having a flying summon indeed allows him to be both offensive and defensive.¡± All the Temple of Light¡¯s people also cast envious nces at Link. If they also had the means to fly, they wouldn¡¯t have to worry about being unable to escape now. Just when they thought that Link would rely on this flying summon to leave this dangerous ce, Holy Angel Yuna suddenly spread her six wings and flew toward the three Necromancers, taking Link with her! The faces of the Temple of Light¡¯s Evolvers were full of surprise! ¡°This...¡± ¡°What is he doing?!¡± ¡°The moth flying into the fire? He actually flew towards the three Necromancers?! Does he have a death wish?¡± ... Exmations continuously sounded! Everyone¡¯s eyes widened as they watched the figure rushing towards the three Necromancers, and their heartstrings tightened! The three Necromancers had also noticed Link. Upon seeing this human rushing toward them, contempt and anger shed in the three Necromancers¡¯ eyes! ¡°A Stage Three human actually dares to provoke our majesty? You are seeking death!¡± shouted one of the Necromancers angrily. The Necromancer then raised its staff high, and dark-green death energy gathered in the staff! Purple-ck energy soonpressed to the extreme and burst out, carrying terrifying pressure with it as if it were going to strip out the lifeforce from its targets! Yuna¡¯s body also rippled with dazzling sacred light, and golden light was streaming down like a vast ocean! This was [Holy Light Purification]! This scene shocked the hearts of all the Temple of Light¡¯s people! ¡°Is this the Seraphim recorded in the ssics? Its power is really terrifying!¡± ¡°Link is able to summon such a sacred being when he is only Stage Three. His future is unlimited!¡± Elder Tian muttered. But he soon closed his mouth. Encountering three Necromancers when he is only at Stage Three... Does this young man still have a future? The dazzling light collided with the death energy, and a huge explosion broke out! The horrifying shockwave resulted in several Death Knights being directly blown into pieces! Seeing that a single blow didn¡¯t kill this arrogant human being, the Necromancer became even angrier! ¡°The Ruler of Death, the Supreme Lord...¡± A chant sounded, and the three Necromancers raised their staff one after another, their eyes stern and cold! However, dazzling sword beams had already struck toward them first! Boom! The three Necromancers¡¯ chanting was directly interrupted, and even their bodies were knocked backward by the sword beams! ¡°Damn it!¡± ¡°Die!¡± Angry roars sounded one after another, filled with terrifying killing intent! Link didn¡¯t care at all. After pulling a wave of hatred, he directly asked Yuna to take him to the deeper part of the mountain range! That should be where the historical ruin was! The three Necromancers quickly got up. Only one stayed behind and continued to deal with the Temple of Light¡¯s people. The two other Necromancers chased after Link, trying to kill him! Everyone from the Temple of Light instantly sensed that the pressure had greatly reduced. At the same time, they were very surprised and ashamed! ¡°This...¡± Even Ou Chen didn¡¯t know what to say for a while. Wu Hao shouted loudly, ¡°Little brother Link is really righteous! I thought he was going to fly away and get out of danger, but I didn¡¯t expect him to give up his life for us to have a chance to live!¡± Elder Tian was also full of guilt. ¡°We have thought too lowly of him!¡± The eyes of the Temple of Light¡¯s people were all moved and filled with admiration. Some of the women¡¯s eyes were even slightly red! Link¡¯s figure¡ªwhich resolutely flew toward the deeper part of the mountains¡ªseemed extremely tall and tragic in their eyes! What kind of magnanimity does he possess in order to remain fearless in such a dangerous situation and make such a decision? Ou Chen rubbed his eyes violently and shouted, ¡°We must not let Link¡¯s sacrifice be in vain! There is only one Necromancer left. We must live and avenge Link!¡± Suddenly, the Temple of Light¡¯s people¡ªwho were on the verge of despair¡ªwere once again full of fighting spirit, bing even braver than before! Some of them even howled, ¡°Kill! Kill! For the light! For Link!¡± The scene looked really fervent for the moment! Xue Linglong and Luo Xingyao were much calmer; they didn¡¯t believe that Link would die in such a way. But the two women didn¡¯t say much; they just continued to fight. If everyone from the Temple of Light knew that Link¡¯s move was just him trying to seize the historical ruin that originally belonged to them, they probably wouldn¡¯t be so fervent now... Chapter 88: Forest of Darkness! Abyss-Like Existence!

Chapter 88: Forest of Darkness! Abyss-Like Existence!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Deep in the mountains. Link had already moved far away from the Temple of Light¡¯s team of people and came to a dense forest. The trees here were affected by some unknown force, causing the leaves to be withered and scarce. Only withered, scorched branches were left, which grew upward twisted and savagely. They looked like ghost ws sticking out from the ground and trying to grab something. They appeared quite terrifying. On some trees¡¯ trunks were even grimace-like patterns, looking sinister and scary! This ce seemed to have been isted from the world, bing some kind of unknown ce. Link¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly; he had recognized these abnormal trees. In his previous life, this kind of forest was called Forest of Darkness by [Doomsday Online] yers. If the degree of mutation intensified, monsters such as tree monsters would even be born. At the same time, these trees were also a magical material filled with the power of death. It was a widely used material. In fact, following the apocalyptic world¡¯s descent, it wasn¡¯t only monsters¡ªwhich people had never seen before¡ªthat appeared. The nts and animals on the Blue Star had mutated to varying degrees, irreversible and continuously intensifying. This was gradually bing unfamiliar, or maybe this was what it truly looked like when it lifted its veil... When Link went deeper into the forest, the two Stage Four, overlord-level Necromancers¡ªwho had been pursuing him¡ªsuddenly stopped chasing. It was as though there was an existence that made them awed and frightened in this area! The two pairs of eyes fixed on Link were full of resentment and mockery. Moreover, one of the Necromancers had curved the corners of its mouth, bringing out an evil smile on its green, rotting face. It looked at Link¡ªwho had stepped into this area¡ªlike he was already a cold corpse! Link felt ufortable from their gazes, and a sharp light shed in his eyes! I shan¡¯t pretend anymore; I¡¯m going to have a showdown with them now! I¡¯m going to kill these two monsters! If it weren¡¯t because Link wanted the Necromancers and the group of monsters to hold the Temple of Light¡¯s people behind so that he had the opportunity to explore alone, he would¡¯ve killed them. Link really wasn¡¯t afraid of these Stage Four monsters! After all, he was a being who possessed a Taboo-grade profession. He had already killed a Necromancer when he was at Stage Two! Link abruptly let go of Yuna¡¯s palm and suddenly fell in front of the two Necromancers! This unexpected move caught the two Necromancers off-guard, and they were sluggish on the spot! The evilly smiling Necromancer¡¯s smile instantly stiffened, and its face had a dumbfounded expression. These two Necromancers obviously didn¡¯t expect that this human being¡ªwho had provoked them¡ªwould be so bold! ¡°You are seeking death!¡± roared one Necromancer, a terrifying aura of death trembling in the air! What responded to his words was a dazzling sword beam that Link wielded! [Rage of the Holy Sword]! ... On the other side. Blood Fiend Gang¡¯s residence! Inside a remote building in Dragon City. A thick scent of blood lingered in the area. A man¡ªwith an ugly face and a thin body¡ªgently shook the goblet in his hand, and scarlet liquid swirled in it. Behind him was a huge pool of blood. A snow-white body stretched across the blood pool¡¯s edge, having been ravaged into an inhuman form. Even the head was cut off; the blood dripping from the pale neck continued to flow into the blood pool. This man was Bloodseeker. After escaping from Link, he had also suffered some injuries and had been recuperating for the past two days. However, his aura had intensified. He had obviously broken through to Stage Four by killing and absorbing blood! Bloodseeker gritted his teeth and said, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that Thunder Pce, World¡¯s Society, and Monopoly would fail even after the three of them joined forces. That kid Link is indeed quite strong!¡± When he mentioned Link, terrifying murderous intent shot out of his eyes. Even the blood in his goblet seemed to be boiling, moving up and down! At this moment, footsteps sounded. A man in a blood-red robe stepped in and respectfully said, ¡°Master, we have found a top-grade tonic for you.¡± Following the voice, a woman with her hands tied was pushed in. The woman was quite charming, and her face was full of fear and terror at this moment. At the side, the man said with a licentious smile, ¡°This woman is said to be a small celebrity before the apocalypse, and she even has quite the number of fans.¡± Bloodseeker nced at the woman, and his murderous gaze instantly caused the woman to tremble. She hurriedly begged, ¡°Don¡¯t kill me. I am willing to do anything... Please!¡± ¡°This cowardly human nature is so pathetic.¡± Bloodseeker just snapped his fingers with a smile. The woman tragically screamed suddenly, and a cloud of blood actually spurted out of her body! The cloud of blood turned into a line of blood, flowing into the goblet in Bloodseeker¡¯s hand. The blood demon took a sip and nodded slightly. ¡°Not bad; quite a good material for my cultivation. She can live for a few more days. Leave her here.¡± The woman¡ªsought after by countless men before the apocalypse¡ªwas already limp on the floor. Her face was full of snot and tears, and she had almost fainted. In this apocalyptic world, those without strength were like ants. Bloodseeker smiled and said, ¡°Praise the apocalypse.¡± But he seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes suddenly burst into a glow of heat and greed. That woman! The woman who follows Link is the perfect cultivation material that I seek to obtain at all costs! Just at this moment, a terrifying aura wafted over here. Bloodseeker quickly turned into a ray of blood-colored light and rushed away into the distance. At this ce was an open space where a huge altar stood. It was several meters high and waspletely built with corpses. This was the Blood Demon Altar built by Bloodseeker after ughtering 100,000 people. A strong death aura seeped out from the corpses and gathered at the top of the altar. A ck whirlpool existed there, leading to some unknown ce. The terrifying aura¡ªwhich caused the space to tremble faintly and distort¡ªcame from the whirlpool... Bloodseeker bowed his head respectfully and said, ¡°My supreme Master, your humble servant is always ready to serve you.¡± ¡°An ant stepped into the restricted area. Find him and crush him!¡± An old and majestic voice came from the whirlpool, and a picture appeared with it. In the picture, a handsome man was flying with the help of a Seraphim. They were Link and Yuna. Bloodseeker was startled; he didn¡¯t expect that Link would attract this existence¡¯s attention! It should be known that the existence he served was as terrifying as the abyss! Link already had a doomed destiny! Bloodseeker suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and nodded heavily. ¡°Yes, Master!¡± ¡°Good, I shall reward you.¡± The horrifying, abyss-like aura slowly faded after the existence received Bloodseeker¡¯s response. At the same time, a group of bloody rays of light was injected into Bloodseeker¡¯s body, causing the evil aura around him to be more and more terrifying. He even faintly approached Stage Five! In addition, there was still an object left on the altar¡ªwhich was filled with a sense of death and misfortune... ... Mountain in the wilderness. The two Necromancers turned into ashes and disappeared. A notification also sounded in Link¡¯s mind. [Ding! You sessfully killed a Stage Four Necromancer. Gained 100,000 EXP!] [Ding! You sessfully killed a Stage Four Necromancer. Gained 100,000 EXP!] [Ding! Cross-level kill detected. Gained 500% additional EXP!] [Ding! Congrattions on sessfully leveling up to Stage Three, Level 5!] ... Along with the system prompt, Link stepped into the Forest of Darkness¡¯s depths... Chapter 89: [Prophet of Death]! Stage Five Boss!

Chapter 89: [Prophet of Death]! Stage Five Boss!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios In the forest¡¯s depths, twisted tree branches ovepped and entangled like ghost ws, forming a huge seat. At this moment, the being on the seat suddenly opened its eyes. There was endless terror in those pale eyes. They looked like a nightmare¡ªdesperate and suffocated! With her awakening, a strong power of death suddenly gushed out from her body! Deep green light shrouded this ce, and the endless howling of ghosts sounded! ¡°Someone actually dared to step foot into this ce. Fresh Undead have delivered themselves to my door?¡± A hoarse female voice resounded in the forest, and a terrifying aura of death swept through the area. Even the Temple of Light¡¯s people¡ªwho were at the mountain¡¯s outer area¡ªalso felt palpitation and suffocation! Wu Hao, Elder Tian, and the others all looked toward the deeper part of the mountains in unison. Elder Tian was surprised. Even he¡ªwho had reached Stage Four¡ªcouldn¡¯t help but tremble in fear under this aura! It was as if a higher-leveled lifeform was suppressing him! ¡°Could it be that there is an even more terrifying existence deep in this mountain range?¡± Wu Hao said solemnly, ¡°This ce is really a tiger¡¯s den! We mustn¡¯t stay too long; we must leave as soon as possible!¡± Hearing this, Xue Linglong and Luo Xingyao both subconsciously frowned. They were worried about Link, who had gone deep into the mountains... At the same time. Link had an indifferent expression. He held the [King¡¯s Sword] tight in his hand, poised for battle. Not far from him, a female figure stood. She had long purple hair¡ªwhich glowed with green light and fluttered in the air¡ªgray-green skin, and pale pupils, giving people endless chills and fear! A sense of death permeated the air, and the Undead¡¯s wails and screams resounded endlessly too! A piece of information then appeared in Link¡¯s mind. [Prophet of Death] Race: Scourge Profession: Mage Level: Stage Five, Level 3 Introduction: She has devoted herself to death and is happy to see everything turn to ashes. The Prophet of Death can summon foul bats and Undead and use them to bury those who still have blood coursing through their veins. Her power is terrifying, and she will deprive casters of what they need most¡ªtheir voice. ... A cold light shed in Link¡¯s deep eyes. The real master here, as he had expected, was an existence above the overlord-level! A Stage Five boss! Its attributes and skill intensity were far more powerful than those of Stage Four overlord-level bosses. Moreover, the Prophet of Death wasn¡¯t an existence that could be ignored even in the Scourge! Even the overlord-level monsters, Necromancers¡ªwho couldmand an army of minor Undead and destroy cities¡ªwere just her entourage! She was undoubtedly a nightmare for humans at this current stage! The most important thing was that all enemies near the Prophet of Death would have their voices snatched away, causing them to be unable tomunicate! What¡¯s more, Mages and Priests that couldn¡¯t chant their spells were equivalent to being prohibited from using their magic. They could only stretch out their necks for the Prophet of Death to ughter if they encountered her! Such a terrifying existence signifies that this ce is unusual all the more! Link¡¯s deep eyes were full of firmness; there wasn¡¯t the slightest bit of fear in them! Link was no ordinary Summoner. He had dual professions, [Great Void Taboo Master] and [Death Judge]. The stats on his attribute screen were as strong as that of Stage Five creatures! Since he had the chance to live a second lifetime, anyone who dared to block his path would all be stepping stones for him to reach the top! The Prophet of Death stared at the crowd mockingly. Her w-like fingers pressed against her lips, making a gesture to keep quiet. An icy wave rippled from her body in an instant, and the ce was shrouded in an aura of terror. Except for the Prophet of Death, the voices of all other creatures here were taken away from them. ¡°Listen, the gods are whispering. Death is where you belong!¡± The corners of her mouth curled up, drawing a cruel arc! As the horrifying aura enveloped the area, Linkmunicated with his summoned creatures with his mind. Star Moon also jumped up, transforming into Chimera form in mid-air! Deprived of sound, it would be a nightmare for professions that required chanting in order to release powerful magic¡ªsuch as Mages. But whether it was Link, Yuna, or Star Moon, the vast majority of their skills were rted to their individual traits. Hence, they didn¡¯t need to perform lengthy chanting tomunicate with the elements that drifted around in nature. In other words, just nice! Link countered this Prophet of Death¡¯s [Trait]! ¡°Interestingbination.¡± The Prophet of Death nced at Star Moon¡ªwho transformed into a gigantic, three-headed beast¡ªand the Seraphim, Yuna, who was flying in the air. The Prophet of Death then slowly tightened her ws! The rming power of death turned into a series of green light streams that gathered in the Prophet of Death¡¯s hand! The wail of ghosts here was getting stronger! At this moment, Link had already moved! His robe danced wildly in the wind, and a dazzling light burst from his [King¡¯s Sword] as if it was going to tear apart everything in front of him! [Holy Charge]! Using this skill¡ªwhich granted one invincibility¡ªas a starting move had already be Link¡¯s habit. In the sky, holy light as vast as an ocean radiated out from Yuna¡¯s body! The pure holy light dispersed the haze in this ce by a little. A series of holy light energy then pierced the space like golden meteorites, carrying terrifying force as they fell toward the Prophet of Death. [Holy Light Purification]! Star Moon¡ªwho had revealed its true form¡ªhad fierce mes,ing from his body, that soared toward the sky! It was as if Star Moon was a terrifying existence that hade from ancient times and trampled on the stars! Its three mouths opened wide and let out a silent roar! Masses of energy gathered in Star Moon¡¯s dragon-like mouths and gushed out! The first head sprayed out deep, ck dark energy. The second head was breathing fieryva, causing this ce¡¯s temperature to spike! The third head¡ªthe newest head that appeared after Star Moon advanced to Stage Three¡ªspewed a faint-green light beam! It wasn¡¯t the power of death, but an attack that had a strong corrosive effect. At this moment, three different energies blended with each other, turning into a huge beam of light. The light beam thensed toward the Prophet of Death! All kinds of attacks came, and even the Prophet of Death showed a slightly strange expression on her face. It should be understood that the creatures¡ªwhich relied on chanting to perform magic¡ªinstantly becamembs waiting to be ughtered when the Prophet of Death¡¯s territory skill, which could snatch away voices, was activated in the past. Almost none could execute such attacks! ¡°I want to tear your bodies even more now to taste your sweet souls.¡± The Death Prophet let out a scream. The extremely condensed green light ball flew out of her hand, suddenly exploded, and turned into a faint green ocean, colliding with the iing holy light and beam of light! Boom! A loud explosive sound¡ªwhich seemed to burst their eardrums¡ªreverberated! The power of death, the holy light, and the beam of light annihted each other... And at this moment.... Link¡ªwho was holding the [King¡¯s Sword]¡ªhad arrived. His expression was insipid as the longsword in his hand shone with golden light. It seemed as if he was holding a huge sword that was taller than a human, making his aura terrifying! The huge sword struck and instantly prated the Prophet of Death¡¯s body! However, the Prophet of Death¡¯s body instantly exploded with a bang. The exploded body parts actually turned into rotten bats. Each of them was half a person tall, and they all opened their stinky mouths, screaming and charging toward Link! The Prophet of Death¡¯s figure appeared some distance away, and there was only contempt and sarcasm on her face... Chapter 90: Swarm of Rotten Bats! Powerful Suppression!

Chapter 90: Swarm of Rotten Bats! Powerful Suppression!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios The sky was filled with rotting bats, just like a sweeping storm! The sky was densely popted by the bats; there was no end to them. Those huge mouths full of fangs were horrifying! Link instantly used the Spring and Autumn Sword Technique and moved his body at a shocking speed! The sword energy of [King¡¯s Sword] circled and danced in the air! The piercingly cold sword intent tore through the power of death as if it could pierce a hole in the skies! The rotting bats were torn up into pieces by the sword energy one by one! A circle of golden ripples surrounded Yuna¡ªwho was in the air¡ªand slowly expanded outward. When the rotting bats came into contact with the ripples, they were immediately incinerated by the holy mes and turned into ashes. The Prophet of Death¡¯s face took on a ghastly expression. The rotting bats were her specialty. When these bats hunted and killed their prey, they gave back blood and life to her! However, this group of intruders was unafraid of the forbidden sounds and swarm of bats. This surprised her slightly. In the next instant, the Prophet of Death suddenly disappeared. When she appeared again, she was behind Link, silent like a ghost. She stretched out her razor-sharp, pitch-ck ws and made five terrifying scarlet-red streaks! If anyone thought she was just an ordinary Mage-like creature, they would be terribly wrong. Her sharp ws made one desperate! The previously loud swarm of rotting bats was more like a smokescreen, creating the perfect opportunity for the killing blow! If she seeded in her attack, even a strong Stage Five existence would be torn in pieces and have their heart ripped out! The corners of the Prophet of Death¡¯s mouth had curved slightly, revealing a perverted smile! She reveled in death and was delighted to see life turned to ashes! But the Prophet of Death¡¯s eyes snapped wide open the next time, and for the first time, she appeared surprised! She saw a golden me! Link¡¯s body suddenly floated! It was Yuna¡¯s [Holy Light Beam]¡ªthree seconds of invincibility and strong explosive power! The Prophet of Death¡¯s fishy, razor-sharp ws were blocked by the golden me. Link fiercely twisted his body as though he had known this was going to happen. He held the [King¡¯s Sword] and swung it with terrifying force! [Death Judgment]¡ªdeath-type damage is increased by 10,000% and has a 10% probability of causing instant death! The Prophet of Death was sent flying by the dark sword aura, and the armor on her chest was torn apart, revealing her gray-green skin. Although this blow did not kill her instantly, she was clearly wounded heavily! But the Prophet of Death seemed to be unaware of her own injuries. She looked at Link in horror as though she had lost her soul! ¡°Th-this is his aura! How can a mere mortal gain his favor? Impossible!¡± Link was the [Death Judge], and he possessed death energy that originated from the God of Death! The Prophet of Death had clearly recognized the aura and was deeply shocked! Link did not have the intention of exining. Without saying anything, he charged forward with his sword! He executed the Spring and Autumn Sword Technique, and piercing sword energy swept toward the Prophet of Death! Pu pu! Facing the oing attack, the Prophet of Death abruptly recovered from her shock and blocked the attack with her sharp ws! ¡°sphemer! Where did you get that power?¡± The Prophet of Death¡¯s expression turned to anger and hatred, and the surrounding aura became increasingly horrifying! The temperature sharply dropped as if to freeze human souls! Link did not answer; his gaze remained cold as golden light burst out of the [King¡¯s Sword]! [Rage of the Holy Sword]! The King¡¯s mighty suppression swept outward! At this moment, Link was like a supreme king on top of the mountains, overlooking the world! The sky and the earth trembled with the King¡¯s rage! Boom! Rumbling sounds could be heard. The Prophet of Death used her pitch-ck ws to block Link¡¯s attack! But the [Rage of the Holy Sword] allowed the King¡¯s aura to cover the user¡¯s bodypletely, enhancing all attributes by 10,000% and increasing damage by 10,000% for one minute! Combined with Link¡¯s base attributes, he wasparable to a Stage Five boss! How could the Prophet of Death block that!? Link brandished the [King¡¯s Sword] continuously, and rays of light fell! The Prophet of Death¡¯s tough ws were cut off by the radiant sword aura! From the beginning of the battle, Link had shown mighty strength! He wanted to kill this creature before his eyes; nothing could stop him! The Prophet of Death¡ªwho brought fear to the world and turned this area into a ce of death¡ªwas now filled with chills in her heart! The man in front of her had surprisingly made her feel fearful! Another sword aura fell; the Prophet of Death¡¯s body turned into putrid bats, and they flew away in different directions! They then grouped together to form her body in the distance. Her pale eyes emitted a demonic green light as her lips quivered, and she began to chant! ¡°The Ruler of Death, the Supreme Lord...¡± Following the Prophet of Death¡¯s chants, an eerie glow surrounded the ce, and a terrifying aura pervaded! p! As though broken by something, a portal with an eerie glow appeared behind the Prophet of Death. The portal opened, and illusory souls surged out, wailing and colliding with each other! These were the souls of those whose lives were robbed by the Prophet of Death! In a short moment, tens of thousands of souls emerged from the portal like a sea of Undead! There were even Stage Four Undead among them; they had fierce, scarlet res! After releasing such a terrifying spell, the Prophet of Death turned around and quickly fled into the distance without hesitating! She was trying to escape! Link naturally wouldn¡¯t allow that to happen. I mustn¡¯t waste the one-minute-long boost. He leaped to face the sea of Undead. The Undead were crushed by Link¡¯s sword energy as they howled! At this moment, dazzling holy light radiated from Yuna. [Holy Light Purification] The pure holy light was the nemesis of these Undead. The sea of Undead turned into nothingness in the holy light. Several golden meteorites formed by holy energy swept toward the Prophet of Death to prevent her escape. Star Moon opened its mouth furiously, and there was a surge of energy. Three energy balls of varying colors exploded in the sea of Undead! The surrounding death aura thinned as the Prophet of Death stopped the several holy meteorites¡¯ explosion. As a result, she was slowed down. With all his attributes boosted by 10,000%, Link¡¯s speed was iparably amazing! In a few short breaths, he broke through the sea of Undead and appeared before the Prophet of Death with his longsword! Sword aura fell, and the Prophet of Death¡¯s body was sent flying. Her body then hit the ground. After that, Link held the holy sword and crushed the Prophet of Death¡¯s long-rotted heart in her chest! The Prophet of Death¡¯s wails could be heard! She stared at Link with her pale pupils, her eyes filled with resentment and hatred! ¡°We are all but pieces on a chessboard! He has passed away, but he exists eternally in time. He will eventually return from the dust, and you will eventually die!¡± Among her wails, the Prophet of Death turned into ashes! Only a few objects that faintly glowed remained! Those were drops! A notification sounded in Link¡¯s mind... Chapter 91: Good Harvest! Stage Five First Blood!

As expected of a Stage Five Prophet of Death, the EXP rewarded for this kill was so great that it directly promoted Link to the peak of Stage Three! If this huge amount of EXP were given to some other [Doomsday Online] yers, it would be enough to push them from Stage Three to Stage Four and directly promote them to the top ranks of human fighters! Due to Link¡¯s special profession, the EXP he required for each level was far more than that of ordinary [Doomsday Online] yers. Hence, he didn¡¯t break through to Stage Four directly. There were advantages and disadvantages. The attribute gain Link got from every level up was multiple times that of an average person! Although he was only at the peak of Stage Three now, his attributes were enough to crush the strongest Stage Five yer! Upon feeling the surge of power within his body, the corners of Link¡¯s mouth slightly rose into a faint smile. It will be much easier if I fight the Prophet of Death again now! Just the huge EXP gain alone made Link¡¯s trip worthwhile! Also, this was only one of his gains! There were still a few pieces of glowing equipment on the ground, waiting to be picked up by Link. [Doomsday Online]¡¯s monsters always had abysmal drop rates, but it was a really good harvest this time! Just as Link was about to pick up the dropped items, he heard an announcement in his mind again. [Ding! Detected that you have killed the Stage Five boss before the Scourge attacked. This is the first kill for this world. You will be rewarded with a title and a world-wide announcement!] [Ding! Title Reward: Fearless Pathfinder has been added to ount!] [Ding! Announcement imminent. Do you want to hide your personal information?] Link chose to hide some of his information. It might not be a good thing to gain too much attention at this time. Not that he shouldn¡¯t, but there was no need to. Soon, all the survivors on the Blue Star received a public announcement. [First Kill for Stage Five boss Prophet of Death! First kill by: XXX, Profession: Death Judge!] Many people were instantly dumbstruck, and they froze in their spots as if struck by lightning! The whole Blue Star then erupted into a frenzy! It was as if 100,000 volcanoes filled with hot magma had been set off by a nuclear bomb! In the terrifying explosion, crimson magma swept through the sky, shaking the sky with zing fire as if to burn the sky! The world went into a frenzy, and shrieks rang out non-stop! ¡°Holy sh*t, the Stage Five boss was killed? How is that possible!¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t the strongest fighter now at Stage Four?¡± ¡°Could it be that someone has advanced to Stage Five? How else can they go against a Stage Five monster?!¡± ¡°Holy sh*t! Amazing!¡± ¡°What kind of god is this? He can kill even a Stage Five boss. Please ept my admiration!¡± ... In the East. Thousands of miles away from Dragon City, inside another city. A middle-aged man with inscrutable eyes was examining an ancient parchment scroll in front of him. He whispered. ¡°Ancient inheritance, gods¡¯ relics, the legacy of the epoch... These are all opportunities that we cannot miss! It¡¯s a pity that these ces are too secretive. It¡¯s difficult to locate them.¡± As the system announcement rang out, the middle-aged man¡¯s body suddenly trembled, nearly damaging the ancient parchment scroll in his hand! His face was filled with shock as he muttered, ¡°Someone actually killed a Stage Five monster at this time?! Unimaginable! Is this the work of that power? Is the Death Judge the God of Death¡¯s heir? We must find this strong person. If we can get him to join our side, he will be invaluable!¡± In the West. Inside a gloomy old castle. A slender man¡ªwith a pale, sickly-looking face and a cold aristocratic aura¡ªheld a cup filled with scarlet liquid in his hand. As the announcement rang out, the man¡¯s heart pounded, and a regal blood aura shed from his eyes! It took a while before the demonic blood aura slowly subsided. ¡°There¡¯s already someone who can kill Stage Five monsters; this world is really getting more and more interesting!¡± Northern Europe. Under Mount Olympus. A stunning-looking woman, riding a vicious giant wolf, ascended the mountain slowly. When the announcement rang out, her delicate body shook; a sh of surprise shed across her face, and her blue eyes dimmed slightly. She had already advanced to Stage Four, Level 7, and could be considered a top fighter. Butpared to the one who had killed the first Stage Five monster, she was like a firefly beingpared against the sun¡ªinsignificant! The tall, middle-aged man traveling with her smiled and saidfortingly, ¡°Your bloodline is the noblest and most exalted among us. The light of the gods will eventually shine brightly again because of you. Temporary gains and losses are insignificant.¡± The young woman looked at the glorious mountain peaks¡ªwhich had birthed countless legends¡ªand nodded in silence. South Asia. A thin young man was d in coarse clothing. His body was seemingly boneless as he wrapped his arms around a Stage Three monster¡¯s neck. Boom! A loud sound was heard. The head of the monster in front of him was ripped off by him! He was the heir of Ancient Yoga and a top Stage Four warrior! As the announcement sounded, the young man stopped for a moment. Then, he violently ran toward the great mountain¡¯s depths. A terrifying aura exploded there, and there was an abundance of wails from Stage Four monsters! He needed to continue leveling! Eastern Japan. The announcement rang out, and a young man crouched on a thick tree branch suddenly opened his eyes. A sharp cold aura shed through his eyes like the harsh light from a sword! ¡°Stage Five monster first kill? How can Amaterasu¡¯s bloodline be behind others?¡± ¡°This Death Judge must be found as soon as possible. The blood from his neck should be able to enhance my Demon de Murayu greatly!¡± ... The world had erupted into a frenzy! Countless survivors were specting about this [Death Judge]¡¯s identity. The man who started it all was looking at the title he had earned with no expression at all. Title: [Fearless Pathfinder] Introduction: With courage and fearlessness as the de, swing your sword at the endless mists and darkness! Swing your sword! Additional skill 1: [Fearless] (Passive Skill): You will be fearless. Spirit resistance +300% (immune to most mental attacks and will never fall into madness or despair). Each time you level up in the future, you will gain an additional ten points to all attributes. Additional Skill 2: [Pathfinder] (Passive Skill): In battle, the first time Health Points drops to zero, automatically restore 30% Health. Cooldown: 12 hours. As indifferent as Link was, a spark of joy shed in his eyes when he saw this title¡¯s effects. These two passive effects were really powerful! The first passive skill, [Fearless], could be considered a godly technique against powerful monsters! Many powerful Undead monsters from the abyss were able to influence and break the human spirit! Among them were some high-level beings whose very breaths were enough to drive people mad! Now, Link didn¡¯t need to worry about that at all. Furthermore, he would gain extra attributes every time he leveled up! [Pathfinder] gave him one more life than others in battle! The first kill reward was really generous! Link couldn¡¯t wait to check out the items that the Prophet of Death had dropped... Chapter 92: Token of Killing! [Ring of Teleportation]!

Chapter 92: Token of Killing! [Ring of Teleportation]!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios The Prophet of Death had generously dropped three items for Link. Two of them were a scarlet token and a glowing key. Notifications sounded in Link¡¯s mind. [Token of Killing] Effect: The holder can enter the team dungeon in the City of the Undead¡ªKilling Purgatory. [Key of Relic] Effect: The holder can enter the Epochal Ruins in the Forest of Darkness for exploration. Note: Not avable in the current version. The Epochal Ruins can only be activated after the Scourge attacks the city. Link¡¯s eyes lit up at once. What a timely gift. There were three dungeons within the City of the Undead. He had only activated one of them, the Sin Realm. It was a single-yer dungeon that wasn¡¯t friendly to professions like priests. With this [Token of Killing], Link would be able to activate another dungeon. In his previous life, he had heard of the Killing Purgatory. It was said to be a high risk, high return dungeon. However, he never got a chance to enter. Now, it was time to give it a try! The EXP rewards in this dungeon were not to be missed! With the team dungeon¡¯s opening, Link would also have a ce to train an elite team! If one wanted to establish a force to be reckoned with in Doomsday, it was essential to have a top-notch fighter. But even the best couldn¡¯t stand alone. An elite team was essential. Furthermore, when the monster siege was over and cities had been established, Link would allow other Evolvers to enter the dungeon to train after they used certain resources as payment. It would just be like a treasure bowl¡ªable to earn all kinds of resources for Link constantly! The [Key of Relic] was the main aim of Link¡¯s trip! However, the Epochal Ruins¡ªwhich this key opened¡ªwas not currently open. It could only be opened after the Scourge invasion¡ªwhich was after the next version update. Only then could one explore it. Link was not surprised by this. After all, this ce was guarded by several Stage Four and even some Stage Five monsters. Even the Temple of Light¡ªone of the most powerful factions in the previous world¡ªhad to stay away from it at this time. ording to his previous life¡¯s trajectory, the Temple of Light was only able to enter the Epochal Ruins after the monster siege, where they had collected arge amount of EXP and equipment dropped by monsters. Thest item was a ring that shone with a ghostly light. Link cast [Supreme Blessing] on it without hesitation. A burst of brilliant light enveloped the ring! When it reappeared, the ring¡¯s appearance had changed. It glowed with a silvery light. The aura that swirled around this ring was so strong it distorted the surrounding space. It was extraordinary! [Ring of Teleportation] Grade: Myth Introduction: The God of Space¡¯s favorite ornament, full of rich spatial power. It is mysterious and unpredictable; the sky¡¯s the limit! Strength: 837 Intelligence: 602 Constitution: 770 Agility: 790 Additional skill 1: [Instant Teleport] (Active Skill): The user can activate the dense spatial power in the ring to carry out short and medium-distance teleportation. (Three-second cooldown when performing a discement of less than 500 meters. Ten-second cooldown when performing a discement of greater than 500 meters and less than 1,500 meters.) Additional skill 2: [So Close, Yet So Far] (Active Skill): Five coordinate points can be set for teleportation. Cooldown time after each teleportation: 10 minutes. ... Link¡¯s eyes shed with a burst of zing heat. It is another superb item! Not to mention that [Instant Teleport] is an ability that allows one to make unexpected moves. It will be very useful in battle. [So Close, Yet So Far] is also a divine skill! It will let me instantaneously return to my home city at any time or go to certain important ces, saving a lot of time. It can alsoe in very handy in certain special circumstances! For example, if certain forces try to take advantage of my departure to attack my base. They will be greatly surprised if I suddenly appear in front of them! Link wore the ring on his finger without hesitation. He also set his current location as the first teleportation point. Then, he turned and left. He would wait for the Epochal Ruins to open after the siege! There must be many precious treasures and resources in the ruins. Most importantly, it contains the truth I seek¡ªthe Mystery of the Ages! ... In the wilderness. Everyone from the Temple of Light had already left this terrifying mountain range and were briefly recuperating in the wilderness. Ten or more people were either sitting paralyzed on the ground or leaning against trees. On their faces were faint traces of the joy at having escaped alive. The chatter continued, all of it about that world announcement from not too long ago. ¡°Boy, our Temple of Light elite team encountered a few Stage Four monsters, and all of us almost lost our lives. I didn¡¯t expect that there would be people in the world who have started hunting Stage Five monsters. There are mountains beyond mountains and heavens beyond heavens! There¡¯s always someone better!¡± ... Ou Chen, the [Son of Light], frowned slightly and sighed. ¡°I pity Brother Link! He is a strong person who can fight above his level. If he had continued to grow, he might not lose to that [Death Judge] mentioned in the announcement. Sigh! Brother Link, you have a hard life!¡± When these words were spoken, the crowd also sighed; their hearts were filled with regret. ¡°s! It¡¯s a pity indeed. Little Brother Link would have been outstanding!¡± said Wu Hao quietly. The eyes of some of the Temple of Light¡¯s women reddened again. Such an outstanding person died at such a young age. They could not help but sigh sorrowfully. Xue Linglong and Luo Xingyao both sat in a corner, lips pursed tight. They were somewhat speechless. They were Link¡¯s followers, so they naturally knew who the [Death Judge] in the world announcement was! After all, Link had left traces of himself in the City of the Undead. The one who ranked first in the Sin Realm¡¯s divine trial tablet was the [Death Judge]. After hearing the system¡¯s announcement, Xue Linglong and Luo Xingyao were shocked! Originally, they were a little worried about Link going deeper into the mountain range and whether he would meet with any idents. It turned out that their lord had killed a Stage Five monster all by himself! Such a dazzling battle achievement shook the whole world! Both of them had also advanced to Stage Three now. They could also be considered among the strongest human beings, but they still couldn¡¯t bepared with Link. They could only gaze at that man¡¯s back from afar! At this moment, the two women felt even more resolute about bing stronger! They were a little worried. The gap between them and Link kept widening, and they might not even be able to see his back in the end... Seeing Xue Linglong and Luo Xingyao silent, Ou Chen took the initiative to go forward andfort them. ¡°The dead have passed. The living should take care. Brother Link sacrificed himself for our Temple of Light. In the future, you cane to the God of Light¡¯s temple if any of you are in trouble...¡± Before Ou Chen finished speaking, he saw the two women looking at him strangely. On the two beautiful faces was amusement. Ou Chen was confused. Before he figured out what was happening, an emotionless voice spoke up behind him. ¡°Who are you cursing?¡± All of a sudden, the ce was instantly silent! Ou Chen stiffened, frozen on the spot! Chapter 93: Impending Siege! The Unfallen City!

Chapter 93: Impending Siege! The Unfallen City!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Ou Chen turned his head and saw a young man walking toward him slowly. This young man wore a white robe and had ck hair. His figure was slender, and he had an outstanding presence. With a longsword in his hand, he looked suave and elegant! ¡°Damn!¡± Ou Chen spurted out foul words. He was so shocked that he almost knelt down! This Demon Lord did not die! Is it true that a scourge never dies? Ou Chen was shocked, and so were all the Temple of Light¡¯s people. They stared so hard that their eyeballs almost fell out! Link led two Stage Four bosses deep into the mountain range. There was no chance he could live. Even a Stage Four fighter might not be able to escape! Yet, this man was currently well and alive in front of everyone¡¯s eyes! Who could believe it? Everyone only felt as if they had been struck by a thunderbolt. Their minds were nk, scalps were numb, and ears full of a buzzing sound! Even the Temple of Light¡¯s Stage Four powerhouses¡ªElder Tian and Wu Hao¡ªboth drew a cold breath in unison,pletely surprised! ¡°Link... You¡¯re still alive?¡± asked Elder Tian in surprise. Expressionless, Link nodded slightly. ¡°Brother Link, you¡¯re my elder brother from now on! You were actually able to survive two Stage Four monsters¡¯ attacks! You¡¯re amazing!¡± Ou Chen said excitedly. Finally, Elder Tian and Wu Hao slowly recovered from their shock and looked at each other with doubt and spection! They were no longer greenhorns. They had experienced a lot, and their depth of thought was naturally different. Both of them had clearly felt an extremely terrifying aura in the mountain range¡¯s depths. They suspected that it hade from an existence superior to a Stage Four monster. In addition, they heard the announcement ring out after Link left. Hence, both powerhouses had an extremely rming spection in their minds¡ªcould it be that the [Death Judge] mentioned in the announcement was Link? But they were really not sure. After all, it was too startling! The aura emanating from Link was only of a Stage Three existence. Compared to the Stage Five monster, there was still a vast difference between both ranks! It was an unbridgeable chasm! No matter how powerful Link was, he would never be able to cross-level kill such a monster at his current stage! Elder Tian swallowed hard and tried to approach the subject without going straight to the point. Link had lived two lives as a human. He would naturally not reveal anything; he would keep them guessing. Everyone returned to Dragon City, prepared to go their own ways. Ou Chen originally wanted to follow Link to hear his stories of how he escaped from the monsters. However, the Temple of Light¡¯s [Son of Light] did not have much influence. He was soon dragged away by others¡ªwho were ordered by Elder Tian. After all, Link was still a powerhouse even if he wasn¡¯t the [Death Judge] mentioned in the announcement! How many Stage Three Evolvers in the world could kill a Stage Four powerhouse and escape from two Stage Four monsters¡¯ clutches? The Temple of Light naturally wanted to have a good rtionship with such a powerful person! After Link bade farewell to the Temple of Light¡¯s people, he returned to Mingshi Hospital with Xue Linglong and Luo Xingyao. The city covering Mingshi Hospital¡¯s ten-mile radius had now taken shape and was nearingpletion. After all, with more than 1,000 Doomsday yers asborers¡ªincluding Evolvers of various professions¡ªthe construction progressed at quite an extraordinary speed. This was just the city prototype; it was also the center of the city. Once they survived the uing siege, the city would get the opportunity to keep expanding outward! In Link¡¯s previous life, some human main cities even covered thousands of miles of mountains and rivers. They were so huge that they could amodate many, many living beings. Seeing that Link was back, Fatty Lu Da hurriedly ran toward him and said in a low voice, ¡°Brother Link, awesome! First kill on a Stage Five monster! That caused a world-wide announcement, and the entire world is in a frenzy now!¡± Link smiled at his best friend¡ªwhom he had yed with since childhood¡ªand then looked at the thick city walls. Lu Da immediately understood, restrained himself from smiling too much, and said solemnly, ¡°Brother Link, the city can be totallypleted today. Myth-grade material ck gold was used, so the degree of sturdiness is extraordinary. Even Stage Four monsters won¡¯t be able to destroy it easily.¡± Link nodded slightly at Lu Da¡¯s words and waved his hand to form a radiant sword aura while facing the ck wall! Boom! The golden sword aura fell on the thick walls, and the sound of iron shing could be heard! This ink-ck wall was extremely sturdy. Link¡¯s sword aura barely left a shallow sword mark on it. Such sturdiness was superb! One should know that Link¡¯s attributes were enough to crush a Stage Five powerhouse! Any of his attacks could easily split mountains and break rocks! But even his attack did not cause great damage to the wall, which showed its sturdiness. Of course, this was also the reason why Link did not use his full strength. Link was satisfied with the wall. Moreover, he had the [Bead of Thunder Punishment] that could affectrge areas, further enhancing the wall¡¯s durability when used together. Today was already the eighth day of the apocalypse. Having lived two lives, Link clearly knew that the Scourge army would attack the city soon. When the day was over, [Doomsday Online] would undergo a twenty-four-hour version update. When the tenth day began, the terrifying Scourge would conduct a siege. It would be a sea of Undead; there would even be a variety of terrifying Stage Four and Stage Five monsters among them! Countless human strongholds were trampled to pieces by the Scourge during this siege! Dragon City was no exception. The old, the weak, the women, and the children wailed under the Undead¡¯s ughtering knives. Blood flowed, limbs and flesh were scattered all over the ce, and the world was like a purgatory! The survivors were forcefully exiled into the wilderness... The scene from Link¡¯s past life shed in his mind. Link clenched his fist, and a cold glint shed in his eyes! In this life, Link would not let the tragedy repeat itself! He would build a city that would never fall! ... The huge city wall and moat was soonpleted. It looked like a ck beast had horizontally stretched itself between the sky and the ground! Link walked into the grand and imposing City Master¡¯s Hall, which was converted from Mingshi Hospital. Yang Xuerou, Qiao Ruowei, Luo Xinghe, Xue Linglong, and the others fanned out in the hall and stared at Link solemnly. Their eyes revealed different emotions, and the atmosphere was iparably heavy. There was hope, reverence, determination, loyalty... They wanted to stick with this man and re-establish a home for humanity in this cruel apocalyptic world! They would not hesitate to risk their lives! In the center of the hall, Link wore the same solemn expression as he took out the City Building Token. At this moment, the City Building Token flickered with a strange light as it was suspended in the air. A system notification sounded. [Detected usage of the City Building Token. Please name the city.] Link had already thought of a name for the city, so he spoke without hesitation. ¡°I will build an immortal city, a city that will never fall. Hence, it shall be named Unfallen City!¡± [Namingpleted.] Following the system notification, the Unfallen City existed between heaven and earth as of today! ¡°Unfallen City!¡± ¡°Unfallen City!¡± ... With glistening eyes, Yang Xuerou, Qiao Ruowei, Xue Linglong, and the others chanted the name in a low voice. Chapter 94: City to Arms! Killing Purgatory!

Chapter 94: City to Arms! Killing Purgatory!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios When Unfallen City was established, an inexplicable wave spread out like a ripple and swept everyone in the city along with it. In the city. There were those who originally belonged to the ck Dragon Gang, Thunder Pce, World Society, and other forces. There were also the survivors who had joined one after another. No matter what they were doing at the moment, everyone in the city stopped moving at the same time. Before everyone¡¯s eyes, an image of Link establishing Unfallen City in the City Master¡¯s Hall appeared. They looked at the extraordinary young man. He was majestic and solemn as he spoke the words. ¡°An immortal city will be built, a city that will never fall!¡± In a sh, many people¡¯s hearts were shaken! In this monster-infested and cruel Doomsday, the vast majority of humanity simply had no hope. They trudged through each day, one day at a time; they simply did not dare to hope for the future. What Link brought them now was a promise and also a belief! ¡°Unfallen City!¡± Many people uttered the name quietly. The expressions on their faces went from confused and dazed to resolute and excited! Many of the gangs like Thunder Pce and World Society¡ªwho originally held grudges¡ªwere inspired by this scene! They started truly submitting to Link. They also began to feel a sense of belonging to the city they were in! They were all from the human race and part of Unfallen City. They would defend it with theirst drop of blood! The people in the city were eager to follow Link¡¯s lead¡ªto create a city that would never fall and build a home for humans to live in! The people were united! The crowd could see a city being built. This was the City Building Token¡¯s function. Only by using the City Building Token would the built city truly be recognized by this Doomsday world. After surviving the Scourge¡¯s siege, it could also bring order and establish a human main city! Without using a City Building Token, the city could only be considered a gathering point even if it was established. It would just be a temporary camp, a ce where people huddled together for warmth. ... At the same time. The other side of Dragon City. The Temple of Light encampment. A message had arrived. Elder Tian and Wu Hao immediately announced, ¡°Withdraw from Dragon City and return to the Temple of Light¡¯s main hall!¡± Dragon City was not the Temple of Light¡¯s main headquarters. They had been sent out to collect resources and find elite monsters to train on. The Temple of Light¡¯s true base was in Bright Sun City, which was close to Dragon City. The camp in Dragon City was like a branch of the Temple of Light. The reason why they all withdrew from Dragon City was extremely simple¡ªthe Temple of Light¡¯s main hall had obtained a City Building Token from elsewhere and would soon establish a city. As the elite team, they had to return immediately to prepare for the uing Scourge siege on the city! None of them were weaklings. Fearless of the wilderness¡¯s night dangers, they packed up and left under the starry sky. While leaving, Elder Tian did not forget to send someone to inform Link. After all, this extraordinary person was worthy of his friendship. In these times of Doomsday, Link would be one of the Temple of Light¡¯s strong allies in the future. As for Ou Chen¡ªthe [Son of Light]¡ªhe waved at Dragon City, which was behind him. ¡°Brother Link, see you again in the future! This time, it will be time for me to receive my second baptism when I go back. If nothing goes wrong, I will be a top powerhouse.¡± ¡°I hope that I can fight alongside you the next time we meet! It¡¯s best if I can defeat, kidnap, and bring you back to the Temple of Light!¡± Ou Chen was obviously very obsessed with Link. He still hoped that Link would join the Temple of Light. Wu Hao suddenly had a headache. Elder Tian was confused! Both of them looked at each other and smiled bitterly. The Temple of Light is an open and aboveboard force. Why does Ou Chen make it sound like it¡¯s a mountain bandit hideout? Did the Temple of Light not want any respect? Did the Lord of the Temple not need any respect? Elder Tian couldn¡¯t help but let out a cough. ¡°Cough cough, Your Highness¡¯s words are too strong. We still have to pay attention to our temple¡¯s authority and image outside...¡± Wu Hao added, ¡°That¡¯s right! Link is an ally of our Temple of Light. What are you doing trying to tie him up? The Son of Light should improve his battle power as soon as possible and prepare for the uing Undead siege!¡± ¡°Got it, got it,¡± replied Ou Chen indifferently. The crowd left. ... Unfallen City, the City Master¡¯s Hall. Link received the news of the Temple of Light¡¯s departure. With regards to this, Link was not surprised. After all, he knew where the Temple of Light¡¯s main temple was located in his previous life. The reason why the Temple of Light was able to control the City of the Undead in his previous life was that their main city had been expanded. Hence, its area of influence wasrger. Putting the trivialities to the back of his mind, Link looked at the time. At this moment, the eighth day of Doomsday had already reached 8 p.m. In another four hours, there would be a 24-hour-long version update. They did not have much time left. Link scanned the crowd in the hall and said grimly, ¡°Lu Da, order the city to prepare for war. Tell the people to get ready.¡± ¡°Yes! As the City Mastermands!¡± Fatty Lu Da nodded and answered, his face solemn. Everyone clearly knew that the Scourge siege on the tenth day was not only an incredibly dangerous hurdle but also an incredibly important one. If they got past it, it would be like jumping over the dragon gate. Order would descend upon the main city. If they did not manage to pass this hurdle, everything would be for naught. The only thing waiting for them would be a river of blood and corpses everywhere! They could only win this battle, not lose! Link nodded and then said, ¡°The rest of you, follow me into the new dungeon to train.¡± This was probably theirst chance to enter the dungeon before the Scourge¡¯s arrival. It was also theirst chance to level up. The eyes of Yang Xueluo, Qiao Ruowei, and the others all lit up! A new dungeon! Has the Lord obtained a token to open a dungeon again? Link didn¡¯t say anything else. He just led the excited crowd out of the City Master¡¯s Hall to Mingshi Cemetery. Mingshi Cemetery was exactly where the City of the Undead was located. The ancient building stood tall, suspended above the rift. It gleamed resplendently, making the ce look mysterious. Upon looking closely, the ancient building was more like a tomb. The ancient door was a tombstone, and the building resembled an iparably magnificent mausoleum. It had all the strongest people from the long river of time buried in it. Suddenly, a woman¡¯s figure emerged. She was dressed in a turquoise pleated dress. Her face was beautiful, her long hair was like a waterfall, and her bright eyes were full of spirituality. ¡°Master, wee back.¡± Link nodded slightly and took out the Token of Killing. ¡°Saiya, activate the Killing Purgatory.¡± Saiya smiled. Her delicate body shook, and a sh of surprise shed through her eyes. Apparently, even she didn¡¯t expect that Link could collect the token to open the new dungeon so quickly! However, she soon collected her emotions. Her soft voice sounded again. ¡°Yes, Master.¡± The token turned into a rich blood-colored light and dissipated in her hands. It seemed to have broken some kind of seal, and terrifying killing intent swept through the ce. The crowd faintly heard harsh wails and ear-splittingughter! The world seemed to have been gradually soaked in blood, bing scarlet! New dungeon, [Killing Purgatory], activated! Chapter 95: Hell Mode! Team Battle!

Chapter 95: Hell Mode! Team Battle!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Even though everyone here wasn¡¯t weak, those present received a significant impact from the terrifying killing intent¡¯s invasion! Yang Xuerou, Luo Xingyao, and the rest all turned a few hints paler. Meanwhile, Link¡¯s countenance remained peaceful. Inside his deep and profound eyes were total calmness. Having lived two lifetimes as a human, his mind had long be extremely steady. Moreover, with the title of [Fearless Pathfinder], Link was immune to the majority of mental impacts! A blood-red whirlpool appeared before the party! Apanying that was also extremely manicughter. ¡°This is the hunting ground of the strong; the souls of cowards and the weak will be torn into pieces!¡± Theughter echoed, pushing one toward madness. Saiya gently touched the beautiful hair on her temples and asked softly, ¡°Master, the team dungeon, Killing Purgatory, is already open. Do you want to enter the dungeon?¡± Link nodded lightly. Saiya added, ¡°The current dungeon has three levels of difficulty to select from¡ª[Average], [Difficult], and [Hell]. The higher the difficulty level, the more dangerous the dungeon is. If you die in the dungeon, you will not lose your life. You will suffer severe mental trauma instead. However, the gains you receive will also be greater if you sessfully clear a mode of greater difficulty.¡± Link did not hesitate in the slightest and said, ¡°Hell.¡± He soon stepped into the blood-red whirlpool. Yang Xuerou andpany closely followed behind Link with determined gazes. The Undead army¡¯s siege was near; nobody would give up this final chance to strengthen themselves! For this time¡¯s dungeon, Link only brought Angel Yuna with him. Star Moon and God Devourer Ant had both stayed behind in the city to guard against any unexpected events. After all, the greatest danger in the apocalyptic wasn¡¯t just ferocious monsters. There were also humans with malicious hearts. The party¡¯s figures vanished. When they appeared again, they had arrived at an entirely different world. [Wee to the Killing Purgatory! This is the colosseum of the universe, and only the strongest can survive!] [Current quest: Kill all enemies. 6/6] Two notifications shed through everyone¡¯s mind. At the same time, the charred ground, warped trees, and thick fog came into sight, making one stifled in their heart. ¡°People are here...¡± ¡°Finally, there are people who¡¯vee!¡± ¡°Rip them apart!¡± ¡°Swallow their blood, flesh... and fresh souls!¡± ... Unsettling strange mutters flooded everyone¡¯s ears. However, other than the fog-like mist before everyone¡¯s eyes, they did not see the enemies¡¯ figures at all. ¡°Yuna,¡± Link called out. Six-winged Holy Angel Yuna immediately understood what Link wanted. Her pure-white wings lightly pped as the staff in her hand danced. Gold-colored waves rippled outwards, and the mist¡ªwhich had obstructed everyone¡¯s line of sight¡ªwas continuously dispelled by the holy rays of light. Everyone¡¯s field of vision instantly became wide. At the mountain peak in the distance, three figures watched the party from a towering height, their eyes filled with brutal killing intent! These three figures were human-like creatures. But they all seemed to have repulsive appearances, and they radiated frightening and profane auras. One of them was a centaur. This was a race that contained a divine bloodline. These half-human, half-horse creatures were proficient in archery; they were born cavalrymen. But the centaur that appeared before the party was extremely twisted and insane! The human portion of its body had blood-red eyespletely covering it like pustules. The horse portion had extra hideous dog heads on either side of the body. Each dog head exposed long teeth, making the centaur look like a sinister monster that was sewn together. The centaur carried a huge bone bow on his back, clearly an archer. There was another humanoid monster, but it had a grotesque pig head. Its eyes were scarlet red, and multipleyers of fangs grew densely in its mouth. Presently, there was even foul-smelling drool that continuously flowed from the pig¡¯s mouth! Its massive body was like a mountain of flesh. It was also holding arge executioner¡¯s sword in hand. The covetous gaze¡ªdirected at the party¡ªalmost made the humanoid pig look like it wanted to skin and eat them alive. Thest one was a very thin, goblin-like creature. The hair on the top of its head was sparse, with many bone spurs all over it. It was currently extending its purplish-ck tongue, licking its sharp ws. It seemed like it was doing some kind of preparation before a meal. Notifications sounded in everyone¡¯s minds. [Fallen Centaur] Name: Odyss Profession: Centaur Archer (Diamond-grade) Level: Stage Four, Level 5 (Set ording to adventurer¡¯s level!) Introduction: Odyss was originally an elite warrior of the Centaur race. Due to the invasion of an abyss-like force, he gradually degenerated. He has been expelled from his n,pletely falling into the darkness. He only has ughter and bloodlust in his eyes! [Fallen Butcher] Name: Colby Profession: Bloodthirsty Butcher (Gold-grade) Level: Stage Four, Level 8 (Set ording to adventurer¡¯s level!) Introduction: Colby was originally a butcher. He was captured during a war. He was then treated as ab rat and had a taboo experiment¡ªwhich concerned his life¡ªconducted on him. Nobody knows about the experiment¡¯s process. All people know is that a terrifying pig monster massacred the entire test facility and treated those broken corpses as food... [Fallen Goblin] Name: Seus Profession: Goblin Assassin (Gold-grade) Level: Stage Four, Level 6 (Set ording to adventurer¡¯s level!) Introduction: Seus was a cunning goblin that people spurned. He pilfered and was greedy yet crafty. However, while one of his robberies allowed him to obtain a treasure that he shouldn¡¯t have gotten, he also suffered a dreadful curse. This made him even more cunning and dangerous... ... The three monsters¡¯ information shed through everyone¡¯s minds, making the party look even more somber. They were all Stage Four monsters! These three figures were equivalent to humanity¡¯s current top powerhouses! Also, even a Stage Four human powerhouse might not be able to counter a monster of the same level! Most importantly, these three weren¡¯t all of their enemies! This was a team dungeon; the number of monsters corresponded with the number of people who entered. Hence, there were still three monsters that had yet to appear. Unknown danger, more often than not, made one feel even more fearful! Luo Xinghe gripped his longsword tightly, and some hints of nervousness showed on his face. ¡°Lord, these monsters seem very unusual!¡± Link maintained an indifferent countenance. ¡°There are still three monsters that have not appeared. Be alert. The hunt begins now.¡± As his words fell, Link¡¯s figure swept forward. Qiao Ruowei and others also charged toward the mountain peak with their weapons tightly gripped. On the mountain, the butcher with a pig head came pouncing toward the crowd with the executioner¡¯s sword in hand. His eyes were blood-red. The hideous centaur archer also brought out that pitch-ck bone bow. A streak of red light shot out from his bow, wrapped in a putrid evil aura. Meanwhile, the bony goblin turned into a shadow and vanished. Only his sharpughter sounded repeatedly. ¡°Eat them!¡± ¡°Good quality... food!¡± ... Boom! A roar instantly exploded! A Blood Ray Arrow was directly crushed by Link using his longsword, which caused a piercing explosion! Blood Ray Arrows continued to be shot out from the centaur¡¯s bone bow! Yang Xuerou swung her staff, cing a buff aura on everyone. Luo Xingyao softly bit her lips as she let out a delicate cry. ¡°Seven Stars Broken Moon!¡± The bow was drawn to a full moon, and a mirage of the Big Dipper emerged. The resplendent starlight then turned into arrows, shining with boundless radiance as they shot toward the centaur! Chapter 96: Double Kill! Hidden Enemies!

Chapter 96: Double Kill! Hidden Enemies!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Booms unceasingly sounded. The arrows that Luo Xingyao fired collided with the Blood Ray Arrows, destroying each other. Luo Xinghe and the others¡ªcovered by Luo Xingyao¡¯s firepower¡ªcontinued to move in the Fallen Centaur¡¯s direction. Link¡ªwho was right at the front¡ªwas already engaged inbat with the pigman butcher, who was like a mountain of flesh. The huge executioner¡¯s sword shed down, and a ring sword glow flew out from the sword¡¯s de as if it wanted to tear the universe apart! Link had no fear; he went forth and met the attack head-on with the [King¡¯s Sword] in hand! The [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique] was instantlyunched! Streaks of piercing sword energy burst from the edge of the sword, circling and dancing! Link¡¯s white robes pped like an ancient immortal arriving in the mortal world; his presence was extraordinary! The rays of the swords collided, and sparks flew in all directions! With every strike that was swung out, the [King¡¯s Sword] tore through the air, bringing terrifying howls of the wind! Link actually forced the meat mountain-like pig figure to retreat repeatedly. That raging sword energy even scored multiple cuts on the pigman butcher¡¯srge body! Thick yellow-colored liquid surged out of the pigman butcher¡¯s wounds as if there were alsorge amounts of fat mixed in with the blood. The pigman butcher¡¯s expression turned slightly dazed. Inside the pair of small eyes¡ªhidden withinyers of fat meat¡ªa speck of surprise shed through. The surprise then turned into madness and rage! Clearly, the pigman butcher hadn¡¯t actually expected his attack to be blocked by a Stage Three human! So much so that the other party even forced the pigman butcher to the point where he had no choice but to back up! This made the pigman butcher exasperated! The pigman butcher desperately wanted to chop off the head of this negligible human before its eyes, then chew him into pieces! ¡°I¡¯ll kill you!¡± A howl¡ªlike the crash of thunder¡ªcame from the pig mouth that was full of fangs; it made one horrified! A blood-red sword ray¡ªseveral feet long¡ªshrouded an increasingly frightening might and came shing towards Link¡¯s head! Indistinctly, the sword ray seemed to turn into many warped ghost faces¡ªthese were the faces of the people that the pigman butcher had killed. Today, their souls had boosted his strength instead! Link¡¯s gaze was sharp; he went into a charging posture, armed with his sword. [Holy Charge]! Brilliant golden light burst out of Link¡¯s body like a gold-colored ocean. The scarlet sword ray¡ªwhich came shing toward Link¡ªwas directly stopped by the golden light, unable to hurt him in the slightest! This was the invincibility state that one entered during the charging process. Link was like an unbreakable gold sword; his presence was mighty and unstoppable! Boom! The meat mountain-like pigman butcher was directly sent flying, blowing up billowing smoke and dust! Link did not hesitate at all, shing down multiple streams of sword energy in quick session! Pu pu! A thick yellow liquid flew out in all directions; the pigman butcher was covered in crisscrossed wounds, and had even lost one of his arms. However, the Fallen Butcher truly had a lot of health and thick skin. If the Fallen Butcher had been an ordinary Stage Four monster, he would¡¯ve long died under Link¡¯s sword! The pigman monster¡¯s eyes were crimson red. After getting up from the ground, he actually gave up on fighting Link and turned to pounce at Xue Linglong¡ªwho was at the side. The pigman butcher had already understood that the strongest person among this group of people was this young man before him. Link was a tough nut that would break its fangs! Although the Fallen Butcher was mad, he was no fool. He knew that killing the other nobodies first would be better! Xue Linglong, Luo Xingyao, and Luo Xinghe were originally fighting with the centaur. The pigman butcher¡¯s violent crash instantly upset these few people¡¯s coordination, catching them off-guard! ¡°Be careful!¡± yelled Luo Xinghe, and he leaped forward with his sword. But how could the Stage Four Fallen Butcher¡¯s strength be something he could match? Even though Luo Xinghe was the [Silvermoon Sword Emperor], he was still helpless due to the great disparity in attributes! de and de collided. With an explosive sound, Luo Xinghe was sent flying backward! The pigman butcher¡¯s eyes were crimson, and another strike was harshly thrust at Xue Linglong¡¯s waist! ¡°Die!¡± roared the butcher; his face was filled with harshness and excitement! Luo Xingyao hurriedly drew her bow, but it was toote! Xue Linglong¡¯s pretty face was covered in frost. In such a crisis, she wasn¡¯t flustered in the slightest; she still thrust her spear swiftly and fiercely. Ice power gathered, and a frosty lotus flower bloomed at the tip of her spear. Yet, it was unable to stop the butcher¡¯s longsword! Boom! The ice lotus broke; the sword edge was about to hit, and the terrifying hostility and st pressure had already enveloped Xue Linglong! A splendid, golden sword ray suddenly emerged at this critical moment! Link had arrived! The golden ray directly shattered the longsword in the butcher¡¯s hands! A huge pig head also flew up high with it! Before everyone could catch their breaths, the pigman butcher body¡ªwhich had lost its head¡ªswelled like a balloon. The body was massive like a mountain of flesh to begin with. Presently, it had an even more gruesome appearance! ¡°Retreat,¡± ordered Link in a low voice. Xue Linglong andpany quickly moved back. Boom! The pigman butcher¡ªwhich had swelled to the maximum¡ªactually exploded like a cannonball! There was now a gigantic, deep pit on the ground. The thick yellow liquid¡ªwhich had shot in all directions¡ªactually had a corroding effect. It now corroded the ground, releasing a terrible stench! Shoo shoo! The sound of wind being pierced was heard! The Fallen Centaur did not feel the slightest degree of sorrow regarding hispanion¡¯s death. His attack arrived in a sh! Streaks of blood-red rays tore through the air, flying directly toward Link¡¯s head! Additionally, the Fallen Goblin¡ªwhich had not been seen since the start of the battle¡ªsuddenly appeared beside Yang Xuerou. His target was evidently this weak Priest! ¡°Sweet-tasting blood and fresh soul; it makes one intoxicated!¡± Amidst the sharpughter, the goblin¡¯s paw swung down, bringing out offensive ck ws. If this attack were tond, even a Stage Four top powerhouse would be dismembered instantly! A cold glint shed through Link¡¯s eyes, and his figure instantly vanished. This was the [Ring of Teleportation]¡¯s active skill¡ª[Instant Teleport]! The Blood Ray Arrow that came shooting toward Link missed. When Link appeared once more, the [King¡¯s Sword] in his hand burst out with brilliant golden light! [Rage of the Holy Sword]! The goblin¡¯s eyes were wide; his hideous and bony face was covered in terror! However, he could no longer dodge! ¡°No!¡± A piteous shriek sounded! The [King¡¯s Sword] shed down! This Fallen Goblin was directly ripped apart by the sword ray. Its body became tattered, and blood¡ªmixed with body parts¡ªspattered! Presently, the world seemed to stop when this scene urred! Silence¡ª Within brief moments, Link killed two Stage Four monsters in a row! Even the Fallen Centaur¡¯s brain¡ªwhich was filled with madness¡ªalso sensed fear! A chill rose as if about to freeze his fallen soul! Yang Xuerou, Xue Linglong, and the others were all shocked. They then had agitated looks, feeling extremely exhrated! When following such a figure, would they have to worry about having no future in this apocalyptic world? Luo Xinghe bravely charged toward the Fallen Centaur once more as if he¡¯d just drank dragon blood. There was only one enemy left in their sights. Hence, Link stood beside Yang Xuerou and did not act. Given the capabilities of Luo Xingyao, Xue Linglong, andpany, they were enough to handle the situation at hand. Although the centaur was a Stage Four monster, the few of them possessed hidden professions as well. Theirbat abilities far surpassed the average Stage Three powerhouse. Killing enemies above their level was dangerous, but this situation was also to sharpen themselves. Link did not keep good-for-nothings. Link silently stood with his sword, waiting for the remaining three enemies to appear. All of a sudden, a strange, obscure chant sounded. The atmosphere of the scene changed right away! Chapter 97: Voodoo Priest! Deep One!

Chapter 97: Voodoo Priest! Deep One!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios An aura that made one¡¯s heart palpitate engulfed the area. The obscure incantation was full of filth, impurity, and twistedness. It sounded as if someone was extolling the existence of a certain taboo in the abyss! Xue Linglong and others¡ªwho were fighting in the snow¡ªfelt their blood run cold, and countless goosebumps appeared on their skin. Following the shaking of this aura, soil exploded on the charred ground! Many rat-like creatures with messy fur broke out through the ground¡¯s surface and continuously crawled out. Unlike usual rats, these rats all had blood-red eyes that reflected violence and madness. The teeth in their mouths were extremely sharp, gleaming with a green glow. Even their crimson gums were exposed! If one were to be bitten by these strange creatures, one¡¯s entire body would probably be ripped apart! The sounds of rats crawling and scuffling, and the sounds of rats grinding their teeth incessantly lingered on; it was very disconcerting! Yang Xuerou, Qiao Ruowei, and the other females in the team all furrowed their slender brows simultaneously. They were naturally very averse to this kind of creature! Fortunately, through the apocalyptic world¡¯s tests, thesedies¡¯ minds had be especially stable. It was still unlikely that they would start screaming at this point. The swarm of rats spread; the sight was appalling! Luo Xinghe turned back to take a nce, and the heart in his chest could not but drop for a moment. He felt a chill engulf his whole body. ¡°Why are there so many rats? We have to kill this centaur as quickly as possible!¡± The few people swiftly made a decision and intensified their attacks for a time! Although the Fallen Centaur was a Stage Four monster, his specialty was in archery. When Xue Linglong and others went close to the centaur, the bone bow in his hand was switched to double des. However, under the party¡¯s cooperation, he unavoidably headed toward his end gradually. On the other side, six-winged Holy Angel Yuna swung the staff in her hands. Around her, waves of brilliant holy light rippled outward. She was like a big, glorious sun, standing above the zenith. ¡°Holy Light Blessing!¡± With Yuna¡¯s delicate cry, a massive screen of holy light appeared. The splendid holy light screen protected Link, Yang Xuerou¡ªas well as everyone fighting the centaur within it. The holy light energy clearly caused great damage to these dark and chaotic creatures. The swarm of rats¡ªwhich unrolled like a huge, ck carpet¡ªwere burnt by the holy me before they even came close to the screen. They let out pitiful squeals, but the seeding rats still pounced at Link andpany madly! Not afraid of death! Or rather, they were only left with the instinct to kill their prey. Layers uponyers of rat bodies¡ªburnt by the holy me¡ªpiled up outside of the light screen! Meanwhile, Holy Angel Yuna wielded her staff repeatedly, releasing [Holy Light Blessing] and [Holy Light Purification]. This scorched the approaching mischief of rats. Yang Xuerou¡¯s countenance became slightly pale. But she felt an inexplicable sense of reassurance when she saw Link¡¯s figure that apathetically stood beside her. It was as if there was nothing to fear as long as this man was present, even if they were on the verge of extermination! It didn¡¯t matter if the heavens fell or if the earth crumbled. Yang Xuerou calmed down and chanted unhurriedly. Streaks of spell radiances burst from her staff and provided buffs to her teammates. Meanwhile, Link watched the overspreading rats with an aloof countenance. He astutely sensed that the true target of the rats didn¡¯t seem to be them. He only saw the countless rats lifting the pig head¡ªwhich was the only thing left of the Fallen Butcher. The rats didn¡¯t let off the Fallen Goblin¡¯s tattered body either. They moved everything toward one direction¡ªit was a forest formed by distorted trees. A thick mist hung around the forest, so one was unable to get a clear look of what exactly was concealed. Link stretched out his hand and pointed to the edge where the mist permeated, signaling to Yuna. ¡°There.¡± Yuna¡ªwho was in midair¡ªnodded and cried out, ¡°Holy Light Purification!¡± Within moments, a surge of holy light energy fell in that direction like a meteor falling from the sky! Boom! The golden energy ball exploded, and the mist that obstructed their vision was dispelled. At the edge of the forest, a figure¡ªwhich was entirely shrouded by a torn cloak¡ªstood with a staff in hand. This figure¡¯s pair of eyes, filled with madness, were greedily watching the forms of Link andpany. By this figure¡¯s side were two other figures. One was armed with a huge axe, yet his body was extremely bent. He had ck hair all over his body¡ªhe was a ratman! The other figure was grayish-green from head to foot and covered in pustules. Some pustules had even burst and slowly dripped an unknown liquid outward; it was utterly repulsive! This figure¡¯s head was like a frog¡¯s. Two eyes bulged outwards, and itsrge mouth was wide. There were also squirming gills on the two sides of this figure¡¯s neck. The figure¡¯s long, deep-purple tongue hung out. These figures¡¯ appearances were extremely twisted and absolutely hideous. So much so that low-level Evolvers would also fall into chaos and madness if they stared at these figures for an extended period of time! Link¡¯s gaze turned cold. The remaining enemies had finally appeared. It was also then that notifications sounded in everybody¡¯s minds. [Voodoo Priest] Name: Cato Profession: Voodoo Priest (Diamond-grade) Level: Stage Four, Level 9 (Set ording to adventurer¡¯s level!) Introduction: Cato was the priest of the Orc race. He was devoted to studying the darkest and bloodiest parts of witchcraft. During an idental chance¡ªor the bored move of a certain god god¡ªhe received an obscure incantation. This was the song of praise to offer one¡¯s soul to a certain taboo existence in the abyss... [Fallen Ratman] Name: Gray Profession: Ratman Warrior (Silver-grade) Level: Stage Four, Level 7 (Set ording to adventurer¡¯s level!) Introduction: Gray was a ratman living in the crypts. His race was a product of chaos to begin with. They were born from a certain god¡¯s vile interests after he mixed rats and humans together. Gray is even closer to pure chaos and darkness now... [Deep One] Name: Jill Profession: Deep One (Silver-grade) Level: Stage Four, Level 8 Introduction: Jill was originally a fisherman. He had always been rather lucky, often able to catchrge amounts of fish when he went out to sea. However, at some point, he actually developed an absurd thought: He wanted to jump into the deep sea; it seemed as if that was where he belonged. Jill felt an indescribable fear toward his own thoughts. However, not only did this thought not fade with time, but it became even stronger instead. Following his increasing age, Jill¡¯s appearance gradually became strange. His body even emitted a stench that resembled dead fish. Hence, he began to keep away from humans. During a certain trip out to sea, he disappeared into the vast and mysterious ocean forever... ... It was three Stage Four monsters again. A fearsome might shook this ce; it made one terrified! The suppression emanating from the Voodoo Priest was even nearing that of a Stage Five existence! The rats ced the Fallen Butcher¡¯s and Fallen Goblin¡¯s corpses in front of the Voodoo Priest. The Voodoo Priest¡¯s palm¡ªwhich was hidden beneath the tattered robes¡ªgradually opened, radiating a green light. He drew two illusory souls out of the corpses. A dim glow then emerged in the Voodoo Priest¡¯s eyes. He looked at these two souls as if they were some kind of delicacies. Without hesitation, he stuffed the two souls into his mouth. At the same time, the aura radiating from the Voodoo Priest became even scarier! Stage Four, Level 9... Stage Four, Level 10... Stage Five, Level 1... Stage Five, Level 3... His level swiftly rose, and a great sense of crisis enveloped everyone! Chapter 98: Stage Five Monster! Sword Immortal Arrives!

Chapter 98: Stage Five Monster! Sword Immortal Arrives!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Luo Xingyao, Xue Linglong, and the others all felt great pressure. This was a level suppression; it made them instinctively feel fearful! Link¡¯s deep eyes were still filled with indifference; it was total calmness within. Stage Four monsters were already considered nothing to the present him! If only Stage Four were monsters in this Hell mode dungeon, he would find it tasteless instead. Presently, the Stage Five monster¡¯s appearance had made Link slightly more spirited. After devouring two souls, the Voodoo Priest¡¯s aura¡ªwhich advanced continuously¡ªfinally came to a standstill at Stage Five, Level 3! Surpassing the remaining monsters¡¯ capabilities by one Stage, the Voodoo Priest caused the ratman and frogman beside him to move away from him slightly. ¡°Souls filled with chaos and madness, indeed delicious. But these still aren¡¯t enough; I need even more souls...¡± The Voodoo Priest spoke up hoarsely. His crimson eyeballs looked toward Link andpany. He swung his staff lightly, and the overwhelming crowd of rats parted to form a path. The ¡®Deep One¡¯ frogman and the Fallen Ratman¡ªwho¡¯d waited for a long time¡ªpounced in the direction of Link andpany together. At the same time, the battle between the centaur, Luo Xingyao, and the others was about to finish. Luo Xingyao¡¯s figure leaped out. The [Bow of Elf] in her hands burst out with enchanting rays of light, and the mirage of the Big Dipper¡¯s stars then emerged! Myriad starlight scattered and condensed to form arrows! A deafening whistle sounded the next instant, the arrows were released at the same time, and starlight shone in all directions! It was precisely the skill¡ª[Seven Stars Broken Moon]¡ªthat Luo Xingyao had grasped by herself! [Silvermoon Sword Emperor], Luo Xinghe, also abruptly swung the longsword in his hands. A piercing sword glow wailed out and headed right for the centaur¡¯s head. Xue Linglong¡ªwho was at the side¡ªalso flew up. Her figure flickered and turned into a phantom. A chilly glow formed in her hand, and an indistinct dragon roar actually sounded! A ck dragon¡ªcondensed via frost¡ªsuddenly jumped out; its ws rose as it directly pounced toward the centaur! This was the [Azure Dragon Vanquish] skill! Under the biting attacks, the two hideous dog heads at the centaur¡¯s sides suddenly let out long howls. As they howled, two clouds of terrifying energy were exhaled from the dog mouths! Boom! A massive explosion sounded, practically about to tear people¡¯s ear membranes apart! A frightening shockwave swept through the area. The battle¡¯s repercussions made the ground crack inch by inch like a spiderweb! Dust and smoke billowed. Unable to discern the actual situation, Xue Linglong andpany retreated slightly, their gazes revealing vignce. However, a snarl soon sounded! A figure abruptly dashed out of the smoke and dust, rushing towards the edge of the forest... It was the centaur, who was covered in wounds. He had been fighting the few people for a long time and suffered the powerful skills¡¯ attacks, but he had yet to die! ¡°A Stage Four monster¡¯s vitality is actually this terrifying!¡± Luo Xinghe couldn¡¯t help but gasp inwardly. The few of them hurriedly charged out, wanting to intercept the fleeing centaur. However, a phantom shed across right then! Glimmering together with the phantom was a ring cold ray of light! It was Qiao Ruowei and the dagger in her hands! The [Nightmare Rose] had been hiding for a long time already, and she finally caught a superb opportunity to attack! Filthy blood spurted in all directions from the centaur¡¯s throat, like a life-stealing rose that bloomed quietly! This Stage Four monster finally copsed on the ground,pletely lifeless! Yuna lifted her hand to draw out a streak of holy light, and holy mes zed around the centaur¡¯s corpse, burning this corpse into ashes! However, the current situation still did not allow for rxing. Xue Linglong and others stood behind Link, solemnly watching that overwhelming mischief of rats¡ªas well as the frogman and ratman, who were swiftly and violently charging toward them. ¡°Pretty good cooperation.¡± Link¡¯s tone was cool as he expressed his approval of Xue Linglong andpany. Qiao Ruowei, Luo Xingyao, and the others instantly looked stunned! Link¡¯s encouragement was rarely heard. Their current exhaustion seemed to be wiped away, and they now felt full of vigor! With the centaur¡¯s death, hints of surprise shed through the frogman¡¯s and ratman¡¯s eyes. Earlier, they had spectated the battle at the edge of the forest. Hence, they already knew that Link was a difficult opponent. However, they never expected that the remaining few people were actually also capable of killing a Stage Four monster after banding together! This made them slightly surprised. Meanwhile, a speck of tyrannical killing intent burst out of the Voodoo Priest¡¯s eyes! He originally wanted to devour the centaur¡¯s soul, but Link had already seen through his tricks. Link hadmunicated with Yuna in advance through thoughts, telling her to burn the centaur¡¯s corpse and soul into ashes with holy light! The hunching ratman armed with a huge axe and the frogman soon arrived! Boom! Boom! The huge axe repeatedly struck the holy light screen, causing the golden screen to dim! On the other hand, the frogman used its webbed hands to grab a long, rusty spear! The long spear came striking, and the holy light screenpletely shattered! The strong stench emitting from the frogman¡¯s body instantly floated into the party¡¯s noses! It was a rotting fishy odor that could almost make one suffocate! Xue Linglong suppressed the urge to vomit. The long spear in her hand jumped out like a dragon leaving the water, pointing directly at the frogman! Luo Xinghe also met the hunching ratman, who held a big axe. A roar instantly exploded! Even with Qiao Ruowei and Luo Xingyao supporting them from the side, the immense suppression due to their levels still made them helpless. Luo Xinghe and Xue Linglong were repeatedly forced back and met with several close calls. The frogman and ratman were extremely furious at this point! The nobodies before them were clearly inferior in terms of capabilities, yet they were able to rely on their teamwork to stop the duo from killing them instantly! This was virtually an insult to them! The frogman opened his big mouth, and thick green fog instantly gushed out from his mouth! This was clearly a certain kind of poisonous fog, so everyone hurriedly moved back! However, the ratman at the side seized the opportunity to brandish his huge axe. The axes¡¯ icy edge spun at high speed, sweeping toward Xue Linglong and others like a typhoon. At this moment, Link also moved. As he brazenly charged toward the ratman, golden light rippled around him like arge, unstoppable golden sword. [Holy Charge]! Boom! A loud bang sounded! The ratman was directly sent flying by the collision like a kite with a broken string! But Link¡¯s onught of attacks had yet to end. The [Ring of Teleportation] on his finger faintly rippled with a silver glow. [Instant Teleport]¡ªwhich had the effect of discement¡ªwasunched! While the Fallen Ratman was still midair, the [King¡¯s Sword]¡¯s released a brilliant golden ray of light and rampantly shed down toward him! Pu chi! A ripping noise sounded! Dirty blood sshed in the air! Link directly ripped apart the Fallen Ratman into two sections! Meanwhile, Linknded lightly. His white robes pped like he was a sword immortal arriving! In mere seconds, a Stage Four monster had died on the spot! This scene took everyone present by surprise and made them somewhat baffled! After all, Link was only a Stage Three powerhouse. Fighting a monster above his level was already exceptional enough and astonishing to others! Yet, who would¡¯ve thought that Link could actually kill a Stage Four monster within a split second!? Even Xue Linglong and the others¡ªwho¡¯d been shocked many times by Link¡ªcouldn¡¯t help staring at Link with admiration at this point! It turned out this man previously had never given his all the whole time. It was no wonder that he could kill a Stage Five monster! After killing the ratman, Link did not bother with the frogman. The frogman was a whetstone he was leaving for Xue Linglong and the rest. With Yuna watching at the side, there wouldn¡¯t be any danger. Link lifted the longsword in his hand, the sword tip pointing right at the Voodoo Priest¡ªwho stood at the fringe of the forest! Chapter 99: Domains! Mad Rat Tide!

Chapter 99: Domains! Mad Rat Tide!

The Voodoo Priest¡¯s face¡ªwhich was shrouded beneath the tattered cloak¡ªemitted two spots of chilly eyes! He looked at Link, letting out a dry and piercingugh. Hisugh sounded as if two pieces of rock were in his throat and rubbing against each other. But it also sounded like a night owl¡¯s hooting. It made one extremely uneasy! The aura radiating from the Voodoo Priest also became increasingly frightening! The extremely weirdly-designed staff¡ªwhich had a tip that looked like a withered and twisted palm holding a still-beating heart¡ªabruptly started dancing at this moment! Streams of gray energy filled with degeneration and twistedness emanated in this area! The overwhelming mischief of rats seemed to receive a certain trigger and stimulus. The crimson glow in the rats¡¯ eyes became stronger! A sense of danger instantly enveloped the party like it was bearing down on them with Mount Taishan¡¯s weight! The countenances of Luo Xinghe and the others¡ªwho were currently battling it out with the frogman¡ªturned stiff. At this instant, all of them felt a staggering suppression! The words ¡®extreme restlessness and difort¡¯ weren¡¯t enough to describe this feeling! While in a trance, they felt like rats were crawling on their bodies. The squeaking sounds lingered on incessantly! It was as if, in their minds, several giant rats were gnawing on their souls! A filthy, twisted, and mad aura tainted their spirits. Xue Linglong andpany felt as if they were facing the icy God of Death. The beating hearts in their chests violently shrank like they had been instantly grasped by an ice-cold palm! A soul-freezing chill abruptly sprung up from the bottom of their feet and rushed straight to the top of their skull, turning their scalps numb! Even the blood flowing around their bodies seemed close to being frozen; their movements momentarily became sluggish as well! The frogman took this chance and continuously let out croaks. Its expression was full of tyranny and excitement. The long, rusty spear in his hand was especially tricky and ruthless. It thrust outward repeatedly, seeking to seize the chance to reap the lives of these humans before him! The situation instantly became exceedingly critical for Luo Xinghe and Xue Linglong¡ªwho were directly facing the frogman! ¡°Yuna,¡± Link called out. In the air, Yuna¡¯s six pure white wings fluttered gently. She nodded her white, jade-like, wless face, understanding him at once. A hint of repulsion shed through her eyes. Lifting the staff in her hand up high, Yuna cried out delicately, ¡°Light, dispel the evil before my eyes!¡± Streams of splendid holy light ceaselessly rippled out from her body! The inexplicable gray energy shrouding everyone was dispelled, and Xue Linglong and the others were enveloped by the holy light. Their cold bodies gradually recovered their warmth, and everyone let out a long exhale in their hearts. At the same time, they directly perceived the formidableness of Stage Five monsters! If Link wasn¡¯t around for the battle this time, they would probably be merely a bunch of nobodies that the Stage Five monster could casually crush! It wouldn¡¯t even require the Stage Five monster to act. If they were to remain in the state that they had been in earlier, they would undergo mental breakdowns by themselves! Link¡¯s countenance was still apathetic. Having lived two lifetimes as a human, his understanding of monsters was much deeper than that of Xue Linglong and the rest. Stage Four monsters were called overlord-level monsters. This was because they already possessed the ability to lead a group of monsters under theirmand and massacre a city! Between Stage Four and Stage Five was a massive divide! Once monsters broke through this boundary, they would be even more terrifying! Stage Five monsters¡ªabove the overlords. Other than being able tomand army-like masses of monsters, some of these monsters even touched domains. They were capable of constructing domains that solely belonged to them! When engaging in battle with such a monster, one would be affected by its unique domain and aura. The battle difficulty could be considered to be raised several-fold! This was the case for the Stage Five boss, Prophet of Death, that Link killed previously. The existence of its domain made even the Stage Four monsters under itsmand fearful! Fortunately, the Prophet of Death¡¯s silencing skill and death domain¡¯s effects were restrained by Link¡¯s [Body of Death] and his own distinctness. Otherwise, he would¡¯ve taken a lot more effort to defeat her. What the Voodoo Priest presently disyed was simr to domain skills! Rats with scarlet-red eyes suddenly looked toward Link in unison! Being watched by millions of mad gazes was not a good experience. It was enough to make one¡¯s hair stand on end. After this, these rats charged toward Link swiftly and violently. The tide of rats that extended to the horizon was like a surging ck wave, swarming toward Link! There wasn¡¯t the slightest hint of fear on the face of Link, who stepped out of the holy light screen. There was only iciness in those deep and dark eyes. The [King¡¯s Sword] in his hand danced, and the [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique] was instantly executed! Streams of sword energy washed out, and a fierce sword intent filled the world. Even the dark sky appeared like it was about to tear apart! The sword energy was like a de. Before the rats madly pouncing at Link even touched the edges of his clothes, they were sliced into chopped meat. Meanwhile, Link¡¯s robes remained as white as snow, his presence peerless as he swept forward. Behind him wereyers uponyers of filthy rat corpses! The Voodoo Priest watched Link, who continued to press closer. There wasn¡¯t any change in his countenance at all; there was only mockery reflected in his eyes! To him, Link was indeed extraordinary. After all, LInk had the ability to kill Stage Four monsters within seconds. But he¡¯d ultimately yet to step into Stage Four! Under his level¡¯s great suppression, Link was merely a slightly bigger ant! Once the Voodoo Priest¡¯s staff shook, the swarming rats actually began piling up before Link. One rat climbed on top of another rat. They would bite one another¡¯s bodies, swiftly stacking up into an extremely thick and heavy rat wall. Moreover, the thickness continued to grow like a building that ceaselessly piled up horizontally and blocked the way before Link! At the same time, Yuna cast [Holy Light Purification]! Streaks of golden holy light energy fell from the air like meteors andnded on the rat wall harshly. With the holy me¡¯s burning and the strangling of Link¡¯s sword energy, the rat wall was constantly torn apart and ruptured! Filthy blood¡ªas well as broken limbs and chopped rat flesh¡ªcontinuously sshed down from midair! Link was like a sharp, unbreakable sword¡ªeven this rat wall could not stop his advance! Very soon, the rat wall copsed. Link stepped forward with long strides! However, what appeared before him wasn¡¯t the Voodoo Priest draped in a torn cloak but arge bloody mouth! This was the mouth of a rat with a hill-like colossal body. Its face was warped! When its enormous mouth opened, it was like a small square. Inside the mouth was stacked and staggeringly long teeth! A terrifying stench diffused right toward Link¡¯s face. There were even many rats moving through the staggering fangs. Deep in the enormous rat¡¯s throat, a massive head stuck out¡ªit was a hideous pig¡¯s head. It was the head of the Fallen Pigman that had been killed by Link! The head was much bigger than before. When the head¡¯srge mouth opened, it was the size of a parlor. Deep in the pigman head¡¯s throat was another head. It was the head of the Fallen Ratman. Each of these repulsive heads enveloped the next like Matryoshka dolls. They were utterly strange and set off a chill in one¡¯s heart! They were so strange that all the heads were still wailing and calling out. ¡°Join us!¡± ¡°Quick, join us! Let us be one!¡± ... The massive mouth swiftly shut, and darkness approached Link, wanting to keep him herepletely! Chapter 100: Death Judgment! Dungeon Cleared!

Chapter 100: Death Judgment! Dungeon Cleared!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Link¡¯s figure flickered, and the [Instant Teleport] skill¡ªwhich hade off cooldown¡ªwasunched again! Link avoided the ferocious pig head¡¯s bite and left the nightmare-like ce before the huge rat¡¯s mouth closed. The huge mouth closed without swallowing Link, so it opened again! Strange voices sounded. ¡°What a pity! Why do you not want to join us?¡± ¡°Come quick! Join us; you will get unimaginable strength and might!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t resist. The abyss and chaos will embrace everything...¡± ... These calls were full of madness and chaos, which could pollute people¡¯s spirit! At this moment, the passive skill¡ª[Fearless]¡ªof Link¡¯s [Fearless Pathfinder] title took effect. Immune to most mental attacks and never fall into madness, chaos, or despair! Link was still extremely calm, and his eyes were cold! He looked at the top of the head of the giant rat that looked like a hill, where a figure stood! It was the Voodoo Priest! But at this moment, the Voodoo Priest didn¡¯t seem to be in a normal state. His lower body seemed to have melted and sunk into the giant rat¡¯s head. Only his upper body was exposed. His staff was raised high, and his face was full of twisted smiles! ¡°Humble ant, now that you have seen the true body of God¡¯s envoy, hurry up and kneel down. Offer your soul!¡± Link didn¡¯t even bother to respond. It was obvious that even the soul of this Voodoo Priest was extremely distorted. It should be the result of sacrificing it to a certain abyssal existence! Holding the [King¡¯s Sword], Link stepped on the fangs exposed from the rat¡¯s mouth and kept leaping high, sending himself toward the Voodoo Priest on the rat¡¯s head! On the Voodoo Priest¡¯s bone staff, streams of gray energy turned into balls of light, which smashed at Link continuously! The huge rat¡¯s mouth kept opening and closing as it tried to bite Link and prevent him from climbing. But Link had the godly discement artifact, the [Ring of Teleportation]. After the skill came off cooldown¡ªa short few seconds¡ªLink executed the next discement again. His figure flickered this time. When he appeared again, he was already on top of the giant rat, only a few meters away from the Voodoo Priest! The two stood facing each other! Unexpectedly, not only did the Voodoo Priest not panic at all, but his face was full of weird smiles at this moment! ¡°You are here!¡± Link also found out that something was amiss in an instant¡ªthis was a trap! After stepping on the rat¡¯s head, he found that this ce was not a physical entity, but rather like a bog. Once he stepped onto the head, his body would continue to sink. Like the Voodoo Priest, Link was sinking into this giant rat¡¯s body! Link was about to withdraw immediately, but eerie palms stretched out from the rat¡¯s ck fur, which pulled him down continuously! The Voodoo Priest smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s useless! Be assimted by me obediently and be a part of my body!¡± Along with theughter, a dark glow appeared in the Voodoo Priest¡¯s eyes, looking extremely terrifying! Link¡¯s eyelids became extremely heavy¡ªas if they weighed 1,000 catties¡ªand were slowly closing irreversibly. This was a kind of mental attack. Link did not resist after he realized this. Instead, he felt slightly amused in his heart! At the same time, a scarlet-eyed rat appeared deep in Link¡¯s heart, about to gnaw his soul and brain! At this moment, a golden light suddenly lit up from Link¡¯s body! His whole body was lit up immactely, like the bright radiant sun. It was the passive skill, [Fearless]! It granted immunity to the Voodoo Priest¡¯s direct soul attacks! The rat that appeared deep in Link¡¯s mind was instantly annihted by the golden light and turned into nothingness! Link abruptly opened his eyes, and thousands of stars seemed to be gleaming deep in his eyes! The Voodoo Priest instantly let out a tragic scream! The terrifying aura rippling all over his body weakened a bit, his face was full of shock and disbelief! ¡°How can this be? You are just a Stage Three, Level 10 Evolver! How can you resist my spiritual pollution and devouring!¡± ... Before the Voodoo Priest¡¯s horrified words were finished, Link had already moved. The biting cold sword energy swept through, tearing apart the palms that grabbed him! Link directly activated [Holy Charge]! With [Holy Charge]¡¯s uninterruptible and invincibility effects, Link crossed the bog and approached the Voodoo Priest! The [King¡¯s Sword] burst out with brilliant light, and a golden sword light was shed out, looking extremely magnificent! The sword energy hit. Even though the Voodoo Priest was a Stage Five monster, it was silenced and became dizzy. Link did not hesitate to cut down with the sword again! A dark me suddenly wafted from the [King¡¯s Sword], looking as if it could swallow the light! What¡¯s more, Link¡¯s whole body was filled with the power of death, and a humanoid shadow seemed to sh behind him! It was a figure shrouded in a ck robe, holding a giant scythe that shone with a cold light in its hand! Endless darkness and death surrounded the figure. The figure seemed to be looking down from the heavens¡ªit was death itself! The Voodoo Priest¡¯s eyes looked at Link in horror! At this moment, the Voodoo Priest was stunned! How can a Stage Three human be favored by that existence? [Death Judgment] activate! Link¡¯s death attribute power increased by 10,000%! His attributes were enough to crush Stage Five beings, and he even had a 10% probability of causing instant death with this blow! When the ck sword energy shed down, space seemed to distort. Under this sword, everything in the world seemed to lose its color, turning into dead ck and white! Boom! The instant death effect was triggered! The Voodoo Priest was annihted by the sword energy; his body turned into ashes and scattered! That extremely huge rat turned into ashes along with the Voodoo Priest, and the endless squeaks finally disappearedpletely! The world fell silent. This scene was also seen by the frogman, Xue Linglong, and the others¡ªwho were fighting in the distance. The frogman¡¯s movements momentarily stopped, and its convex frog eyes were full of fear! This was the first time the frogman showed fear since the battle started! The frogman was really frightened of the God of Death¡¯s aura that exuded from Link! The frogman opened his mouth and spit out a green poisonous mist, about to flee. However, Xue Linglong and others naturally wouldn¡¯t let him go. They were all inspired by Link¡¯s unparalleled might that was used to kill the Stage Five monster. The more they fought, the more courageous they became¡ªtheir morale was extremely high! With a tragic cry, the frogman¡¯s body was soon crushed by Xue Linglong, Qiao Ruowei, and the others together! So far, all six enemies had been killed! Xue Linglong and the others stood in ce and panted heavily. It had been a high-intensity battle. If it weren¡¯t for Yang Xuerou¡¯s continuous application of buffs, they definitely wouldn¡¯t be able to persist. It should be known that they has also kill two Stage Four overlord-level monsters, even though they didn¡¯t have a battle record as astonishing as that of Link. Their potential was evident! Link walked back slowly, satisfied with their performance. At the same time, a system notification sounded. [Congrattions to all of you for clearing Killing Purgatory in Hell mode. Rewards are being settled based on your performance...] Finally, it¡¯s time for the rewards! Qiao Ruowei and the others¡¯ eyes all shone; their hearts were full of excitement and expectation! This dungeon wasn¡¯t simple. The creatures¡ªwhich had fallen or distorted¡ªhad all kinds of weird abilities. Since they cleared the dungeon, the rewards naturally wouldn¡¯t be small! Even Link was a little curious about what kind of rewards they would obtain after clearing Killing Purgatory at the highest difficulty... Chapter 101: Huge Rewards! Entire Group Leveled Up!

Chapter 101: Huge Rewards! Entire Group Leveled Up!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios As the reward notification for clearing the dungeon sounded, the world before Link and the others had also changed dramatically. They appeared in a huge arena, surrounded by a circle of seats that climbed upward. There were even a few extremely magnificent thrones in the void. Even though there were no creatures seated on the thrones now, the lingering pressure that remained from endless years ago still caused their hearts to palpitate! The pressure was like the sky¡¯s majesty, vast and mighty! Under such pressure, any creature would seem to be small as dust. It was hard to imagine what powerful creatures were seated there in the past! In other words, those were simply the seat of the gods! Link was solemn in his heart. This Killing Purgatory is indeed the same as what the notification said when I entered. This is the arena of 10,000 races! The reason why the God of Death created this ce was most likely also for pleasure. It was a wonder what the scene here was like when the gods hadn¡¯t yet been affected by the great disaster and died endless years ago... Link¡¯s heart trembled slightly, and he clenched his fists secretly. How terrifying was the disaster that even the gods could die to it? Link desperately wanted to figure out the truth; he also wanted to be even more powerful! Only by doing this could he truly control his own destiny and reach the peak! Just when Link fell into deep thought because of the sight in front of him, the notifications also rang in his ears. ¡°Ding! Congrattions on clearing Hell-level difficulty. Your performance evaluation is rated SSS!¡± ¡°Ding! Obtained experience reward: 800,000 points!¡± ¡°Reward for clearance: [Lost Mask].¡± ¡°Reward for clearance: 20,000 trial points.¡± ... At the same time, everyone else also received rewards for clearing the dungeon. Although nobody else got SSS-rating, their rewards were also extremely rich! After all, the difficulty of this dungeon at Hell-level was truly terrifying! A golden light rippled from Link¡¯s body, and his aura strengthened rapidly! [Ding! Congrattions on sessfully leveling up to Stage Four, Level 1!] ... [Ding! Congrattions on sessfully leveling up to Stage Four, Level 2!] ... [Ding! Congrattions on sessfully leveling up to Stage Four, Level 3!] ... The huge amount of EXP directly pushed Link from Stage Three, Level 10 to Stage Four, Level 3. This allowed him to reach the ranks of the highest leveled humans! However, Link possessed Taboo-grade professions. Thus, his attributes far exceeded ordinary people in the first ce! At Stage Three, he could already kill Stage Five monsters! After advancing from Stage Three to Stage Four, the stage advancement had caused Link¡¯s attributes to increase by arge margin. Even if he faced terrifying Stage Six monsters now, Link was powerful enough to fight against them too! As Link leveled up, the three summoned beasts that originated from him also gained massive amounts of EXP! [Ding! Congrattions on your summoned creature¡ªHoly Angel¡ªsessfully leveling up to Stage Four, Level 3!] [Ding! Congrattions on your summoned creature¡ªGod Devourer Ant¡ªsessfully leveling up to Stage Four, Level 3!] [Ding! Congrattions on your summoned creature¡ªChimera¡ªsessfully leveling up to Stage Four, Level 3!] ... It wasn¡¯t just Link¡¯s aura that had be more terrifying and more profound. Yang Xuerou, Luo Xingyao, Xue Linglong, and the others also radiated light all over. Their auras also became more intense too! With the exception of Yang Xuerou, everyone advanced past Stage Three and entered the ranks of the most powerful humans at present¡ªStage Four! This was also because Luo Xingyao and others frequently entered the solo dungeon, Sin Realm, to train themselves. Since Link possessed the City of the Undead¡¯s dungeons, his people¡¯s leveling speed was much higher than those from other factions. This was the importance of resources in the apocalypse! It was worth mentioning that Yang Xuerou received an S-rating for clearing the dungeon as a support Priest, which was second only to Link. But the others weren¡¯t surprised. If it weren¡¯t for Yang Xuerou, Xue Linglong and the others would¡¯ve been unable toplete such a continuous, high-intensity battle. The true role of a Priest could only be reflected in team battles. After all, not everyone could be like Link. Link alone was an entire team! Smiles appeared on Yang Xuerou and the others¡¯ faces. They were all very satisfied with this dungeon¡¯s rewards. At the same time, the outside world wasn¡¯t peaceful either. A loud explosive sound reverberated. The entire City of the Undead was shaking slightly! The quiet and peaceful Undead Town also shook! Lights of various colors intertwined in the sky, concealing the sun and looking extremely extraordinary! Fatty Lu Da¡ªwho was in charge of keeping watch over the city¡ªnoticed this phenomenon and hurried to the City of the Undead to inquire about the situation. ¡°What¡¯s the matter? Brother Link and the others are still in the dungeon! The City of the Undead mustn¡¯t have any problems now!¡± There was a smile on Saiya¡¯s face. She stroked her sideburns, smiled, and said, ¡°It¡¯s okay. This happened because Master cleared Killing Purgatory¡¯s highest difficulty. Hence, a phenomenon has appeared here.¡± ¡°In this case, this is a good thing!¡± ¡°Haha, I knew that Brother Link is awesome! Clearing the most difficult dungeon isn¡¯t of any difficulty to him!¡± Lu Da smiled, feeling proud of Link¡¯s achievement too. Very soon, Link and the others¡¯ figures appeared outside the City of the Undead. Seeing Lu Da present, Link asked, ¡°How is the situation in the city?¡± The monster siege was approaching, so people¡¯s hearts would inevitably feel insecure. At this time, some of the seeds nted by various factions might make small moves and cause riots. Having lived two lifetimes¡ªespecially in this life where he hade into contact with various factions¡ªLink increasingly felt that the reason Dragon City was destroyed in his previous life wasn¡¯t solely because of the monster siege! Not only was the Undead army terrifying, but some factions in Dragon City were probably causing chaos from the backend too. For example, the Blood Fiend Gang and the ck Dragon Gang... Lu Da shook his head slightly and said, ¡°Brother Link, everyone in the city is actively preparing for the battle ording to your instructions. No problems have arisen. But during the time you were inside the dungeon, someone came to look for you.¡± ¡°He said that he is of Dragon City¡¯smoner Evolvers, and they have formed a legion alliance together. They hoped to form an alliance with us to resist the monster siege together!¡± ¡°Oh.¡± Link¡¯s memories of his previous life popped into his mind, and he asked, ¡°What is the name of that legion?¡± ¡°The name is No Retreat Army. It means that they will not retreat half a step and will defend their home to the death!¡± Lu Da replied. Link nodded slightly. As he expected, it was indeed the No Retreat Army he remembered from his previous life. In his previous life, he had received No Retreat Army¡¯s help and defended against the monster siege together. It was just that things didn¡¯t go as they had hoped. In the end, the strong humans in No Retreat Army were killed by the monsters, and the monsters still bathed Dragon City in blood. Corpses were everywhere, and the survivors escaped into the wilderness... No Retreat Army had also be the dust of history. But the few strong humans in the No Retreat Army truly lived up to the name of not retreating and fought to their deaths. If there was a chance, Link was willing to give a helping hand to this legend¡ªwhich had an extremely strong backbone¡ªeven though he was very cold to other humans. Link¡¯s memories stirred his emotions, and his eyes became deeper. He then asked, ¡°How much longer?¡± Lu Da¡¯s expression became solemn too. He knew what Link was asking about¡ªit could only be the remaining time before the monster siege arrived! ¡°The version update has started, and it is now counting down. There are still ten hours.¡± Link nodded and instructed Xue Linglong and the others behind him, ¡°All of you, go back and get some rest. Recharge your batteries and prepare for the siege that¡¯sing in ten hours!¡± ¡°Yes, Lord!¡± Xue Linglong and the others responded with resolute expressions. Chapter 102: The Scourge! Siege Begins!

Chapter 102: The Scourge! Siege Begins!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios [Countdown to the Scourge Siege: 4 hours, 53 minutes, 34 seconds.] After meditating in the room for a few hours, Linkpletely regained his energy and returned to his peak state. Then, he abruptly opened his eyes. A cold light shed in those profound eyes as if a sword shadow was floating within. Link could already faintly feel the world¡¯s energy fluctuations bing chaotic. This was the portent of the siege war¡¯s start! A blood-colored world appeared in front of Link¡ªit was the Dragon City of his previous life. In this life, Link would not let such a scene appear again! Link walked out of the room and climbed up the tall and dark city gate tower. The world was dark, and a faint roar of thunder sounded in the distance... This was the sound of the expanding space cracks. The space cracks would bepletely prated after four hours, and the Scourge would descend! The Scourge was a nightmare that would sweep through the world! Link was silent, and his eyes were extremely cold. His white robe fluttered loudly in the wind that suddenly became swift! Like a banner. Under the city. Unfallen City¡¯s countless citizens raised their heads in silence, looking at Link¡¯s upright and determined back view. His figure was like a long spear pointing directly at the sky, suddenly causing hope to rise in their hearts and blood to boil in their bodies! They would be following behind this young man to confront the monsters that woulde and attack the city. They were not afraid, even though they might die! ... As the countdown to the siege decreased little by little. The atmosphere in the entire world was also bing more and more depressing. It pressed heavily on people¡¯s chests, almost suffocating them. On Blue Star, Unfallen City wasn¡¯t only the city that existed. In fact, beginning on the fifth day of the apocalyptic world, Evolvers had begun building cities one after another. Some were camps for survivors that were built based on original buildings, and some were also real cities recognized by heaven and earth after using a [City Building Token]. Former Mingxi City, now Bright Sun City. In the majestic city hall. A majestic man sat high on the city lord¡¯s throne. His facial features were hard-lined like they were carved with a knife. Even though he wasn¡¯t angry, he still gave off a mighty and oppressive pressure. He was Ou Mingcheng, the Temple of Light¡¯s Lord. He looked at the Temple of Light Elders¡¯ firm expressions and spoke indifferently. ¡°The apocalypse descends, everything restarts, and the wheel of fate turns again. There are people who are born to be kings, and some who upynd as bandits. We only hope that the Light will be eternal.¡± The Temple of Light Elders all bowed their heads, silently carrying out the rituals belonging to the Temple of Light. ¡°May the Light be eternal; may the Gods protect us!¡± Everyone chanted in unison. At this moment, even Ou Chen¡ªwho frequently behaved improperly¡ªwas also extremely solemn. He has gone through the second baptism, and his current aura had even reached Stage Four! ... Bai Yujing¡ªthis was a city built by Taoist powerhouses. On the towering walls. An old man with a white beard sat cross-legged with a young man. Both of them wore dark-blue robes, had an ethereal presence, and profound eyes. The auras exuding from them were also extremely extraordinary! The old man looked at the depressed world outside the city and smiled freely. ¡°It is said that Taoist priests in troubled times woulde down from the mountains to save the world. But my understanding of the Daoism arts is unfortunately very shallow. In the end, I am unable to save the world.¡± ¡°Oh well, I shall at least keep this city safe then.¡± The young man¡¯s eyes were firm. ¡°The Immeasurable Tianzun1.¡± ... Pure Land. An old monk¡ªwho wore a red robe and held a meditation staff¡ªsilently recited scriptures on the top of the city wall. As he chanted, golden Sanskrit characters seemed to light up around the city and float up. As the golden Sanskrit characters shed, the city faintly glowed with a golden halo, making it appear more sturdy. Next to the old monk was a young monk in white clothes with his hands sped together. The young monk was staring at the growing cracks in the distance. He frowned slightly and spoke with a low voice. ¡°Buddhism doesn¡¯t only have benevolent Bodhisattvas but also fierce guardians with the means of eliminating demons!¡± ... The countless survivors on Blue Star were all waiting for thest moment¡¯s arrival with nervous, depressed, or perturbed feelings. Whether humans would be able to defend their homnd, or if the Scourge swept through the world, the result would be seen a few hourster! At the same time, Dragon City. ck Dragon Gang residence. ck Dragon, the leader of the gang¡ªwho was enveloped in a ck robe and had an evil aura¡ªstood beside Doctor Ghost. With an inexplicable smile hidden in their eyes, the two of them condescendingly looked down at the city from a high spot. ¡°Everything is ready. I hope that the Supreme Lord will like the gifts we offer to him.¡± ck Dragon¡¯s head tilted slightly, and his words were filled with madness. Doctor Ghost raised his eyebrows slightly and said, ¡°The boy named Link spoke wildly about how he would destroy our ck Dragon Gang.¡± ¡°That¡¯s ridiculous. Not only does my ck Dragon Gang want to take his life today, but it also wants to take away everything that belongs to him!¡± ... Blood Fiend Gang¡¯s residence! A strong bloody atmosphere permeated, and a huge blood pool sat within it. Limb stumps and pieces of flesh were all over the floor. This ce was like purgatory on earth¡ªextremely terrifying. Bloodseeker wore a scarlet cloak and looked in the direction of Unfallen City with a cold and sinister look. ¡°Link, I heard that you built a city. You named it Unfallen City? Hehe, as opposed to your wishes, I am going to destroy your city. I¡¯m then going to crush you into powder!¡± Footsteps were heard. A Blood Fiend Gang member walked in and said respectfully: ¡°Sir, the Blood Fiend Gang members have all gathered and are ready to heed yourmand.¡± Bloodseeker nodded. He took out a bloody dagger¡ªwhich rippled with an ominous aura¡ªfrom his shirt and slowly clenched it tightly. ¡°Very good! Get ready to start; it¡¯s a carnival today!¡± His eyes were bloodthirsty as if he had already foreseen someone¡¯s death! ... Unfallen City. Xue Linglong, Yang Xuerou, and the others all walked out of their rooms, climbed to the top of the city, and stood behind Link. Below the city walls were citizens all ready for war. Time passed by every minute. The void cracks that appeared above the sky tore apart more and more, looking like huge ck mouths that were about to swallow the world! A presence that caused people¡¯s hearts to palpitate seeped out from the dark cracks, full of darkness and death! They could even faintly hear the Undead¡¯s roar and the excited roars of monsters on the other side of the void cracks! Finally, the final moment had arrived. [Countdown to the Scourge Siege: 0 hours, 0 minutes, 10 seconds.] ¡°9... 8...¡± Everyone was counting in their hearts! The sky suddenly became darker, and a certain barrier was broken! A thick wave of death power swept through the world! Undead creatures emerged from the cracks in the void like rivers and oceans! Countless bone ws stepped on this piece ofnd that originally didn¡¯t belong to them! Soul fire blossoms lit up in the Undead creatures¡¯ deep eye sockets as they watched the world in front of them mockingly! ¡°Hiss!¡± The Undead warhorses hissed and started to gallop! Stage Three and Stage Four monsters roared loudly. ¡°This world¡¯s aborigines are really weak! Shred them apart!¡± ¡°Destroy everything!¡± ... An ocean-like army of Undead swept toward Unfallen City; there were even Stage Five existences amongst them! Link raised his longsword indifferently. Behind him, Xue Linglong and the others¡ªas well as all the city residents¡ªalso raised their weapons in unison! The humans¡¯ sonorous shouts and the monsters¡¯ roars sted in the world together! ¡°Unfallen City shall never fall!¡± Chapter 103: Thunder Domain, Might of the Domain Displayed!

Chapter 103: Thunder Domain, Might of the Domain Disyed!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios The tenth day of the doomsday, 12 a.m. The world was dark and gloomy, the atmosphere was extremely suppressed, and a huge ck cloth seemed to shroud the sky! But tiny green mes were faintly visible in this disturbing darkness, connecting into onerge piece like a vast ocean. These green mes were soul fires throbbing in the Undead creatures¡¯ deep eye sockets! Further away, the sky seemed to have many holes in it. Green beams of light poured out, and arge number of Undead creatures continued to swarm out. Among them were numerous terrifying auras and zing green mes. Those were high-stage Undead creatures. A terrifying presence swept through! The noisy footsteps and the Undead¡¯s roar resounded through the humans¡¯ eardrums, shaking their hearts! Faced with the Undead tide¡¯s terrifying offensive, some people swallowed their saliva hard, and fear showed on their faces. Some even turned pale, and their hands were trembling slightly! However, none of the people in Unfallen City took a step back! Fear of monsters and fear of danger were human nature. It was a creature¡¯s instinct to seek benefits and avoid danger. But behind them was their homnd; there was nowhere else to retreat to¡ªthere was no ce to escape! Their belief was to seek for life by facing and never retreating in the face of danger. It was the faith that man instilled in them! At this moment, the gazes of countless people intersected at one point. There. Link¡¯s white robe waved in the wind. His ck hair danced, and his body was like a spear pointed directly at the sky, filled with sharpness and coldness! While staring at the iing horde of monsters, Link took out something from his backpack space without any hesitation¡ªit was a crystal clear crystal ball! The crystal ball shone with silver electric light, and inside it was a blue-violet thunder dragon circling constantly! Once it appeared, winds and clouds instantly gathered in the sky above Unfallen City. A vaguely mighty pressure seemed to seep through from the clouds! This was heaven¡¯s vast might itself; it was the heavenly lightning¡¯s fury! The crystal ball was the Legend-grade, domain-type secret treasure obtained by Link¡ª[Bead of Thunder Punishment]! The holder could release a legendary forbidden curse, [Forged?Heaven¡¯s Wrath Thunder Punishment]! The most important thing was that this secret treasure could construct a domain¡ª[Territory of Thunder]! Hostile units that entered the domain would have their movement speed reduced by 40% and their defense reduced by 30%. They also had a probability of being struck by lightning, triggering paralyzing and silencing effects! It was most suitable to be used on the Undead army at this moment! The crystal ball floated up from Link¡¯s hand, gradually soaring up high. It then flew into the space corresponding to the City Master¡¯s Hall. After that, shes of lightning continuously emerged from the clouds like runes lighting up and connecting to each other. In the end, the shing bolts of lightning formed a huge symbol that covered the entire Unfallen City and a 1,000-meter radius! As if a huge formation was activated, lightning enveloped the world! Everyone couldn¡¯t help but look up. Their eyes reflected the lightning, their faces full of shock! The thunder roared, and the lightning flickered, illuminating the sky. It was full of majesty and vastness! The mighty and heavenly majesty swept through the area, almost making people tremble. Intent to worship also appeared in their hearts! This was the heavens¡¯ majesty; this was the [Territory of Thunder]! In an instant, the domain shrouded the area! Bolts of lightning descended one after another like lightning snakes dancing wildly, striking at the area around Unfallen City. Even on the ground thousands of meters outside Unfallen City, shes of lightning could also be seen faintly flickering. The Undead creature at the forefront of the Undead legion stepped into this area, and an electric current shed through its body. Its movements became extremely rigid, having been affected by the domain! What¡¯s more, silver lightning snakes were continuously falling. They were like the traces of an axe that split apart the world¡ªit was extremely dazzling! Undead creatures directly died in the zing lightning one after the other! This scene entered the eyes of everyone in Unfallen City, and it brought them great encouragement and shock! The lightning suddenly seemed to spur them, and the blood in their bodies surged! Surprised shouts and cheers kept sounding. ¡°This is the power of domains! The City Master actually has a domain-type secret treasure!¡± ¡°With this kind of treasure, the Undead army is nothing to be afraid of!¡± ¡°The City Master is mighty!¡± ¡°Unfallen City shall never fall!¡± ... Lightning flickered in the sky above Unfallen City, its presence magnificent. In the distance, a group of people in the broken city¡¯s shadow frowned upon seeing such a scene. His eyes full of killing intent, Bloodseeker gritted his teeth and whispered, ¡°He actually has a domain-type secret treasure! This Link is really lucky!¡± It should be noted that such a secret treasure was extremely rare! A treasure had to be higher than Epic-grade in order to have the domain effect! At this stage, not to mention Epic-grade equipment, even Diamond-grade equipment was extremely rare. Only the various factions¡¯ elite teams could possess Gold-grade equipment and stronger. Most [Doomsday Online] yers could be considered quite fortunate to have a piece of Silver-grade equipment in their hands. Not to mention this domain-type secret treasure! This treasure was enough to make the major factions fight over it! Even Bloodseeker¡ªwho had pledged his loyalty to a certain existence from the abyss¡ªwas also tempted and sought to obtain it! ¡°But relying on the domain alone isn¡¯t enough to resist high-level Undead! I shall see how many tactics and tricks you have. When both you and the Undead army are wounded and tired from the fighting, my Blood Fiend Gang wille out and reap the benefits! By then, all the treasures you have shall be mine!¡± Bloodseeker sneered. After sticking out his palm, a scarlet light emerged. Bloodseeker directly crushed a skeleton that broke into this ce into powder. ... The rear of the Undead army. Several hideous and terrifying bone beasts were slowly moving forward. Every time their giant wsnded, the ground around them would tremble! These bone beasts were extraordinarily huge, and they seem to be transformed from the corpses of the legendary Behemoths. They were like walking bone mountains! The aura that exuded from them had even reached the terrifying Stage Four! Even the surrounding Undead creatures stayed a certain distance from these bone beasts, seemingly afraid of the bone beasts. However, many Undead creatures were still trampled into powder by the behemoths! Dark chains stretched out behind a few behemoths, pulling a huge chariot. On the chariot fluttered a broken military g, which exuded a strong ominous presence! A man¡ªwho wore ck armor and held a huge sword that emitted a faint green me¡ªsat on the throne with his legs straddled. His appearance looked the same as a human, but his faint-green eyes were very evil-looking. It was as if a sea of ??deathid within those eyes! Countless souls were drowning, struggling, and wailing in it! By his side, a Prophet of Death looked at the lightning shing in the distance and spoke in a low voice. ¡°General, the opponent has a domain-type secret treasure. Our vanguard army may be slightly obstructed there.¡± The man with a terrifying aura only raised the corners of his mouth slightly, bringing out an evil smile. ¡°It¡¯s okay; let one of my pets out. Let it cooperate with the army and crush the opponent!¡± ¡°Yes.¡± With a wave of the Prophet of Death¡¯s palm, some of the chains instantly dropped to the ground. An [Evil Bone Beast]¡ªwhich had a body asrge as a small hill¡ªimmediately let out a sky-shaking roar. It then charged in the direction of Unfallen City! On the way, countless howling Undead were directly crushed by this behemoth! Even a few Undead Knights became food for the behemoth! Chapter 104: Evil Bone Beast! The Might of God Devourer Ant!

Chapter 104: Evil Bone Beast! The Might of God Devourer Ant!

Along with the thunder domain¡¯s effect, people in Unfallen City no longer relied on the city for defense. With Luo Xinghe, Xue Linglong, and other Stage Four warriors leading the way, some [Doomsday Online] yers with meleebat professions left the city to kill monsters and grind EXP! The thunder domain caused the Undead creatures¡¯ movements to be slow and stiff. The difficulty of killing monsters also decreased drastically! Various weapon shadows andbat auras shone in the city. Defeated, skeletons and Undead Knights fell, one by one. The Undead mes in their eyes were extinguished as they aided in the [Doomsday Online] yers¡¯ leveling in the form of EXP. Led by Luo Xingyao and Yang Xuerou, Priests, Mages, Archers, and other yers skilled in long-ranged attacks stood at the battlement. Along with the moving of staves, various elements converged, bowstrings trembled, and the sound of shooting arrows merged with the sound of chanting! A constant shower of arrows and magical light rays appeared on the battlefield, annihting the monsters around the city! Yang Xuerou and the other Priests ced buffs on theirpanions and rescued the injured. The situation gradually stabilized. Several low-leveled Evolvers¡¯ bodies even shone with the light of level-ups. Their confidence was boosted, and their fear of the Scourge gradually diminished. But Link¡ªwho was positioned at the city wall¡¯s battlement¡ªstill looked solemn. He was clear that the scariest thing in the Undead cmity wasn¡¯t ordinary skeletons or Undead Knights. A powerful existence remained to be seen... A series of shocking cries could soon be heard! ¡°What¡¯s that?¡± ¡°It is as huge as a small mountain! Could this monster be a Behemoth in its past life?¡± ¡°It¡¯s actually a Stage Four monster that only the most powerful humans can fight against!¡± They saw a huge bone beast rushing toward the city with monstrous power! Before it arrived, the people in Unfallen City could feel the tremors beneath their feet! The aura emanating from the beast sent a chill up from the people¡¯s feet! Link narrowed his deep eyes slightly. ¡°Finally sending out the elite?¡± The giant beast was like a small mountain-sized cannonball¡ªunstoppable. All the Undead monsters in the beast¡¯s path were crushed into powder! Such might made one¡¯s scalp numb! If it had collided with a person, it would be enough to crush all the [Doomsday Online] yers into minced meat! In everyone¡¯s horrified eyes, the giant beast had already entered the thunder domain¡¯s range. Thunder snakes fell on this giant beast¡¯s body, but they could do nothing to this massive bone monster! Several people were wide-eyed, wearing looks of shock. The Dark Magiughed coldly. ¡°Humans, wail! What a beautiful sound that is!¡± ¡°The General¡¯s pet will crush you into mush!¡± Xue Linglong¡¯s pretty face was cold. She wielded her spear and killed the two Undead Knights in front of her. She then took a big step forward, wanting to fend off the giant beast. Luo Xinghe¡ªwho was holding a longsword¡ªfrowned and ran in the direction of the Evil Bone Beast. At the same time, several Stage Three warriors followed behind the duo and stood in the Evil Bone Beast¡¯s path. But they still seemed too smallpared to the mountain-like Evil Bone Beast, even a little pathetic! ¡°Courting death! You actually dare to stand in the path of the General¡¯s pet!¡± ¡°Ridiculous! Crush them!¡± The Undead monstersughed mockingly. The soul fire in the eyes of the Evil Bone Beast¡ªwhich charged toward the city¡ªpulsed with contempt and disdain! ¡°Roar!¡± A terrifying roar sounded. The immense soundwave ripped apart several low-leveled [Doomsday Online] yers¡¯ eardrums, and scarlet blood flowed from their ears. Pitch-ck mes surrounded the Evil Bone Beast, and its power became more and more appalling! It would trample the humans in front of it and turn them into mush! Xue Linglong, Luo Xinghe, and the others turned pale. But they clenched their jaws and held their weapons tight, ready to fight this giant beast! Right at this moment, a ck light shed across. A bug half the height of a human appeared in front of the Evil Bone Beast. A ck-colored carapace covered its body. The surface of its body was also full ofplex and mysterious blue-purple lines, appearing as if they contained some sort of truth. A pair of ck and golden wings as thin as a cicada but full of coldness moved slightly behind it. It was Link¡¯s God Devourer Ant! With the God Devourer Ant¡¯s appearance, an aura of barbarism¡ªwhich seemed toe from the ancient creature¡ªimmediately swept out fiercely! The army of Undead monsters was stunned at first; they then burst out intoughter. ¡°It¡¯s just a little bug. It¡¯s courting death too?¡± ¡°Ridiculous! A mantis trying to stop a chariot!¡± ... However, they were soon unable tough. The soul fire in their eyes quivered, revealing shock and horror! They saw. The Evil Bone Beast¡ªwhich was like a mountain of bones¡ªraised its huge paw and stomped down on the God Devourer Ant! However, not only did the huge paw not crush the God Devourer Ant, but it even hung in mid-air! One should understand that the Evil Bone Beast¡¯s foot was enough to shake the ground and turn a Stage Three warrior into mush. But in front of the God Devourer Ant, it couldn¡¯t even move an inch! The air seemed to freeze, and everyone could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. A ck light then shed, and the half-a-human-tall God Devourer Ant overturned the enormous Evil Bone Beast! Boom! The Evil Bone Beast fell heavily on the ground. Smoke and dust filled the air, and the ground cracked! The army of Undead monsters was dumbfounded. How could a bug be so strong? This was simply beyond their imagination! God Devourer Ants were a wild, primordial species known for their invincible power. At their peak, God Devourer Ants could devour all gods and monsters and tear the sky apart. Along with Link reaching Stage Four, God Devourer Ant also attained the strength that came with the level-ups. It became even more terrifying! A mere Stage Four Evil Bone Beast was no match for it! ¡°Die!¡± The Evil Bone Beast quickly got up and let out a hoarse shriek. It was enraged by the God Devourer Ant and became extremely hostile! Immense power of death converged in the Evil Bone Beast¡¯s mouth, ready to be spat at the God Devourer Ant! But the God Devourer Ant did not seem afraid. Its ck and golden wings pped, and it turned into a ck stream of light, mming into the Evil Bone Beast! Boom! A loud bang sounded! Everyone only saw the Evil Bone Beast¡¯s huge head exploding! The Evil Bone Beast¡¯s enormous body crumbled. The broken bones scattered, and the power of death dissipated as well! Extremely violent and brutal attacks¡ªthis was a God Devourer Ant that sought ultimate power! In an instant, the horde of Undead swarming toward the city froze momentarily! Each of their soul fires trembled non-stop, conveying shock and awe! ¡°How is this possible!?¡± ¡°It¡¯s just a little bug, yet it actually won against the General¡¯s pet!?¡± The Undead cried out in shock, but the God Devourer Ant didn¡¯t stop attacking at all. It transformed into a dark light and charged toward the Undead Tide! The Undead monsters were crushed by a horrifying power, their soul fires annihted! Mournful wails and panicked cries rang out in the army of Undead! Chapter 105: Undead Archers! Necromancer Corps!

Chapter 105: Undead Archers! Necromancer Corps!

Following the unstoppable Evil Bone Beast¡¯s defeat, the Undead army¡¯s elites could no longer stay calm. At the back of the army, the expression of the man sitting atop the huge carriage remained unchanged. However, his dark-green eyes flickered with coldness! ¡°You made me lose a pet. It seems these ants can be quite interesting!¡± The Prophet of Death beside him trembled slightly. ¡°General, calm your anger. They will soon pay back with their lives!¡± ... The sound of wind gushing could be heard on the battlefield. Arrows¡ªshining with faint-green light¡ªconverged into a shower of arrows in the sky, falling in the direction of Unfallen City! When those arrows hit the ground, they exploded, causing coteral damage. gue and death aura unfurled! Several [Doomsday Online] yers were scratched by arrow shards, and the aura of the gue immediately lingered around them. Their wounds became infected at speeds visible to the naked eye, revealing pus and even the white bones inside! ¡°What is that!¡± eximed someone. Everyone looked at the Undead monsters¡ªwhich held bone bows and wore leather armor¡ªthat appeared at the thunder domain¡¯s border. A series of notifications sounded in everyone¡¯s mind. [Undead Archers] Race: Scourge Profession: Archer Level: Stage Four, Level 2 Introduction: The elites of the Scourge. Every arrow they shoot contains gue and death. Shooting arrows like the rain, they bring death and despair to living creatures. At the same time, obscure and strange singing sounds could be heard. Beams of green light converged, death aura emerged, and Necromancers appeared, brandishing their staffs! The Necromancers summoned powerful spirits, and a ball of lightposed of ck magic sted toward everyone like a cannonball! Horrifying power of death lingered around the battlefield. The dense death aura swept over as if it were determined to transform the whole area into a kingdom of Undead! The [Doomsday Online] yers¡¯ faces were filled with horror. One had to know that it wasn¡¯t just one Undead Archer or one Necromancer, but dozens of them. They came together and became the Undead Archer and Necromancer Corps, constantly releasing terrifying power of death into the crowd! ¡°They are Stage Four monsters, the elites of the Undead Army!¡± ¡°Their attackes with gue and debilitating effects. Our status is dropping drastically!¡± ¡°Priest! Priest! Save me! My entire arm is bing white bones!¡± Exmations rose unceasingly. The Undead Archers and Necromancer Corps¡¯ existence was a nightmare. The battle became more and more difficult with their participation. The struck [Doomsday Online] yers¡¯ wounds rotted rapidly and even corroded into white bone. It was a horrifying experience to see parts of their bodies bing white bones. The Priests in Unfallen City rushed to cast healing spells, but it was no match for the wounds¡¯ rotting speed. The power of gue within the wounds prevented them from recovering! As the power of gue and the power of decay slowly spread in the air, everyone¡¯s status continued to drop! At this moment, Holy Angel Yuna¡ªwho was standing behind Link¡ªsuddenly flew into the air. Her six white-feathered wings fluttered slightly, and she swung her staff! ¡°Holy Light Purification, dispel the evil before my eyes.¡± Coldness shed in Yuna¡¯s beautiful eyes. With a cry, the dense holy light suddenly spread like the sea! Golden holy light rippled outward with her in the center. Yuna was suspended in the air at this moment, holy and wless as she emitted golden light like the bright sun. She exuded a holy aura, drawing the worship of others! The gue aura¡ªspreading from the city moat¡ªwas instantly cleansed by [Holy Light Purification] and was no longer able to spread. Beams of holy light energy turned into balls of light and shot toward the Undead Archers and Necromancer Corps like meteorites! Along with Yuna¡¯s long-ranged suppression, the pressure on the crowd of [Doomsday Online] yers was instantly reduced. At the battlement, Yang Xuerou frowned. She waved her pale wrist, and a brilliant light emitted from her staff! The crowd of¡ªuninjured and wounded¡ª[Doomsday Online] yers¡¯ eyes lit up. They felt a steady stream of warmth being injected into their bodies! It was the skill that Yang Xuerouprehended after she leveled up¡ª[Holy Light ¡¤ The Great Healing Aura]! It could heal and restore health to multiple yers for one hour. It could also make them immune to poison, damage, decay, and other negative status effects during that time! ¡°This healing aura is not ordinary!¡± ¡°My injuries are healing!¡± ¡°Kill! Kill all these monsters who want to trample on our homes!¡± The crowd was back in shape once again, and they began to fight the ocean of Undead monsters! Link¡¯s summon, Star Moon, joined the battle as well. It took the form of a three-headed Chimera. Each head spewed energy of different attributes and destroyed the iing Undead monsters! Along with the chanting of 20-odd Necromancers, a terrifying aura rippled around the area! Faint-green death aura swept over. The Undead creatures¡¯ broken bones pieced together and became an Undead monster several feet tall! This Undead monster¡¯s body was as tall as a building, and the aura permeating its body had reached Stage Four, Level 10! d in bone armor made up of broken bones, it wielded a huge bone de and viciously shed down at Unfallen City with a fierce face! Boom! The terrifying howls of the wind tore through the air! The huge bone sword was more than ten meters long. Before the sword de fell, the crowd had already felt the terrifying, mountain-like oppressve sensation! The Mages, Priests, and yers with other professions skilled in long-ranged attacks on the battlement turned pale. The Undead monsters were clearly plotting to kill the Priests and those skilled in long-range attacks at the battlement. They would then crush those skilled in melee attacks under the city with great force. This wasn¡¯t only because those skilled in long-range attacks were vulnerable. Without Priests, Mages, etc., it would be hard for the yers skilled in melee attacks to turn the situation around, no matter how hard they fought. Link stood at the battlement, amused at this moment. His ck hair flew in the wind. Since the battle began, he had not done much other than send his three summoned beasts into battle. Firstly, he didn¡¯t care much about attacking the noobs. He was waiting for the Undead army¡¯s real powerhouses. Secondly, he wanted to protect the people at the rear! Link used the [King¡¯s Sword] to block the huge bone sword¡¯s attack! The [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique] was instantlyunched! The piercing sword intent immediately filled the world, and streams of sword energy swept out as if they would tear the sky! In an instant, the great oppression suddenly dissolved into nothingness! The golden sword aura was extremely bright. It collided fiercely with the bone sword with raging sword energy! Chapter 106: Stitches! [Abomination]!

Chapter 106: Stitches! [Abomination]!

Both the bone sword and the [King¡¯s Sword] exploded with great power! The terrifying roar resounded throughout the world, and a storm swept through it! Everyone on the city battlement felt like they were going to be blown away. In the end, the huge and menacing bone sword didn¡¯t fall. On the contrary, it was flung out of the hand that held it and crashed to the ground. It smashed cracks into the ground and sent sand sttering! The soul fire of the Undead monster¡ªwhich was as huge as a tall building¡ªtrembled violently in its eye sockets as if dazed and shocked! How could the tiny humans in front of it block its blow? All the Undead monsters below the city were stunned, their faces horrified! The rotting faces of more than 20 Necromancers¡ªwho were working together to performrge-scale Undead magic¡ªwere filled with surprise! That was an Undead monster that they summoned together. It was a Stage Four, Level 10 monster¡ªalmost as powerful as a Stage Five monster! It would be hard for even a Stage Five human to withstand this huge Undead¡¯s heavy blow! But the aura emanating from the human who had just made a move was obviously only Stage Four! How did he do that? The group of Undead creatures were so shocked by the power of Link¡¯s sword that they were frozen in ce! Link remained indifferent. When he came down from the sky, he stepped heavily on the city wall and used it to leverage strength to shoot out like an arrow! The [King¡¯s Sword] in his hand burst into brilliant golden mes! While the bone sword was out of the Undead¡¯s hand, a piercing light from the sword fell again! Biting cold sword intent rushed skyward. Link was like a sword immortal that hade to the present from ancient times. The power of his sword was enough to terrify heaven and earth! ¡°Damn it!¡± The huge Undead suddenly came to its senses. It roared angrily and maniacally. Its bone ws clenched tightly, and it threw a punch with a fist the size of a living room, sending out an aura of death! Boom! The golden sword aura instantly collided with the pale white bone fist, and a roar exploded once again! But the fist that was strong enough to smash a Stage Four powerhouse into mush crumbled under the raging sword aura! The powerful sword aura was like a golden phoenix, brilliant and dazzling. After shattering the Undead monster¡¯s bone ws, it still kept on going and ruthlessly crashed into the Undead monster¡¯s huge body! ¡°No!¡± Harsh wails rang out! The huge Undead monster was torn apart by the sword aura! Its shattered bones smashed to the ground, making huge craters! This terrifying Stage Four, Level 10 monster had been destroyed! The crowd¡¯s eyes were filled with disbelief and shock! Some people even unconsciously stared in disbelief. Their City Master, Link, had only swung his sword twice from the beginning to the end! He killed a monster which was almost Stage Five in a sh! What kind of terrifyingbat power was this? Even the current highest-ranked, Stage Four human powerhouse could not do something like that! They only felt the blood gushing to their heads, and their scalps were numb for a moment! After a short silence, the cheers suddenly rang out like thunder. ¡°The City Master is mighty!¡± ¡°City Master is invincible! He is the Sword Immortal reborn!¡± ¡°City Master is great and amazing!¡± ... Link¡¯s attack had boosted the crowd of humans¡¯ morale greatly. The army of Undead monsters, on the other hand, was filled with shock and awe. They looked at the sturdy figure thatnded under the city walls with some trepidation! ¡°How can this be?¡± ¡°Such a strong powerhouse has appeared among the humans?¡± The Undead monsters rasped, their voices full of terror. Link remained expressionless and indifferent. He had been promoted to Stage Four, and his attributes had once again improved significantly. Even a monster that was about to reach Stage Five was not a match for him! Link cast his icy gaze at the Undead Archers and Necromancer Corps located at the Undead army¡¯s rear. These Undead with long-range attacks were troublesome in this battle. They were also the ones that Link wanted to get rid of first. He sent a thought to God Devourer Ant and Star Moon. These two powerful summoned beasts¡ªrunning rampant in the Undead army¡ªimmediately rushed toward the Undead Archers and the Necromancer Corps! Very soon, the Undead started wailing. Although the Undead Archers¡¯ arrows contain a terrible gue, they were rtively fragile physically. In the face of God Devourer Ant¡ªwho pursued ultimate strength¡ªthey had no means of resisting at all! God Devourer Ant¡¯s dark forelimbs danced, and the Undead Archers were shattered by terrifying power. Rancid pieces of meat sttered everywhere! On the other side, Star Moon¡ªwho had morphed into a Chimera¡ªwas also disying terrifying power! It was the God of Divine Wrath¡¯s twin brother and symbolized destruction. As it continued to advance, it would grow stronger and stronger! Star Moon rushed into the 20-odd Necromancers like a cannonball, interrupting their enigmatic chants. Three ferocious heads raised high; the dragon mouths red, spitting out terrifying energy! Darkness faded. zing mes and green corrosive energy red brilliantly here. One by one, the Necromancers were swept up by the energy rays and killed! At the same time, Link continued to hear system prompts in his head. [Ding! You sessfully killed a Stage Four Necromancer. Gained 100,000 EXP!] [Ding! You sessfully killed a Stage Four Undead Archer. Gained 100,000 EXP!] ... The prompts were incessant, and Link temporarily ignored them all. He put all his attention on the battlefield. Super God-grade God Devourer Ant and Star Moon ughtered the Undead army¡¯s rear end. The massive attribute gap between them and the enemy made the two summoned beasts seem like tigers in a flock of sheep! The Undead Archers and the Necromancer Corps were soon destroyed by the two. Without these long-range units¡¯ threat, Xue Linglong and the others had an easier fight. They steadily pushed the Undead army backward! The Undead monsters¡¯ wails continued. A soul fire was being annihted every second. At the same time, a path quickly opened up in the densely packed Undead monsters that formed the Scourge Huge monsters rushed out from it. The ground trembled slightly, and a strong smell of dposing matter rolled in. The monsters each held a huge chain axe. Their huge bodies were like a mountain of meat. Their bodies were covered with stitches, and each of them had several arms and feet. They looked as if countless corpses had been piled up and stitched together. Green grease constantly dripped from their bodies. Their appearance was extremely hideous and chilling! A stream of announcements entered everyone¡¯s mind. [Abomination] Race: Scourge Profession: Stitched Monster Level: Stage Four, Level 7 Introduction: The dead bodies are no longer silent. They are repaired, stitched up, and thrown into the battlefield. Driven by the darkness, they are the nightmares of living creatures! Ten Abominations appeared. Their horrifying aura and hideous appearance caused everyone¡¯s brows to furrow! Furthermore, on the shoulder of thergest Abomination¡ªwhich was several feet high¡ªwas a seat made of dead wood. A female monster with gray-green skin and leather armor sat there, looking down at the crowd with her pale eyes! Chapter 107: Silent Domain! Undead General!

Chapter 107: Silent Domain! Undead General!

With the appearance of the female monster, a dense aura of death immediately emerged! The greenish glow enveloped the area, rendering it eerie beyondparison. An extremely terrifying aura swept out, causing the crowd below the city to shiver¡ªthis was the aura of a Stage Five monster! The Prophet of Death, a terrifying existence above overlord-level existences! Luo Xinghe and the other people¡ªwho were fighting under the city¡ªall stiffened as if a cold palm clutched at their hearts! Fear rapidly spread in the people¡¯s hearts. Their faces became pale, all the fine hair on their bodies stood up, and cold sweat dripped off them like rain! The Prophet of Death raised her iron hook-like ws and made a gesture for silence at her pale-white lips. In an instant, the Silent Domain descended upon everyone! The crowd only felt a cold wind brush past their bodies, and then their voices were mercilessly taken! The chanting of the Mages and Priests on the battlement came to a screeching halt! Some people opened their mouths wide and tried to scream, but there wasn¡¯t the slightest sound. They just looked extremelyical. It seemed that the world had be dead silent with this female monster¡¯s arrival! Link¡¯s sword eyebrows rose slightly, and a cold aura appeared in his eyes. A Prophet of Death¡¯s Silent Domain was a nightmare for Mages and other professions that required chanting. In this battle, this domain¡¯s terror was even more obvious! The female monster sitting atop the Abomination locked her gaze on Link. Her eyes were ice cold and full of killing intent. ¡°Human, you will use your life to pay the price for what you have done!¡± The words had barely faded when the Prophet of Death waved her staff. A thick cloud of rotten bats then surged towards Link! Four huge Abominations also surrounded him with their chain axes in hand. They wanted to make sure that he had no way to escape! At the same time, the rest of the Abominations roared and rushed toward Luo Xinghe and the other humans, who were busy fighting under the city. The serrated axe de tore through the air, emitting a horrible sonic boom! Furthermore, the axe de also emitted a ck light. Once the ck light hit anything, it would quickly deprive it of life! The rotten bats also opened their bloody mouths full of fangs and tried to tear Link¡¯s body apart! Faced with such a crisis, a cold glint shed through Link¡¯s deep eyes. There was not the slightest bit of fear within. The Prophet of Death wanted Link to die. Likewise, Link wanted to behead the Prophet of Death and put an end to her Silent Domain. In an instant, [Holy Charge] was activated! Link emitted a golden glow with a longsword in hand. It reflected his body, making it seem wless¡ªjust like a god who had descended! The bats¡ªwhich had opened their bloody mouths¡ªwere blocked by the golden light and could not harm Link at all. An Abomination swung its huge axe at Link, but it was also enveloped by the golden light! This was the effect of [Holy Charge]. It granted one invincibility and immunity to control skills and damage! Link took big steps forward like an unstoppable golden sword. The sword¡¯s cold de rammed into one of the Abominations in front of him! The huge Abomination, like a mountain of meat, was instantly knocked backward by Link. The densely sewn together corpses turned into broken flesh and sttered all over the ground! Part of the Undead army, the Abomination¡ªwhich was known for its defensive power¡ªcouldn¡¯t even stop a blow from Link! As the Abomination¡¯s body shattered, a foul stench¡ªsimr to a corpse that had been fermenting in a pickle jar for several months¡ªspread out. The Prophet of Death¡ªwho was sitting on the Abomination¡¯s shoulder¡ªfrowned, and a sh of horror shed across her face! A sense of crisis and coldness instantly struck her heart! Abominations were extremely difficult to kill. Theyers of piled-up corpses gave them high defense. A Stage Four powerhouse usually wouldn¡¯t even be able to tear off the thickyer of grease on an Abomination! The battle power of the human in front of her terrified her! ¡°Go. That human must not be allowed to escape. Tear his body and soul into pieces!¡± shouted the Prophet of Death anxiously, and several more meat mountain-like Abominations dragged their huge axes and lunged at Link! Link¡¯s sword eyebrows rose slightly, and the [Ring of Teleportation] on his hand glowed faintly. He suddenly disappeared from where he stood and reappeared in front of the Prophet of Death! A zing golden sword aura appeared along with Link¡¯s figure! [Rage of the Holy Sword]¡ªall attributes and damage increased by 10,000% for one minute! A bright me burst from the [King¡¯s Sword] like an ocean of gold! At this moment, the light zed. Link seemed to be holding a small sun in his hand, which he smashed at the Prophet of Death! It happened so quickly that the Prophet of Death only had time to widen her eyes; her gray-green face was full of panic. Under the terrifying power, even she, a Stage Five monster, could only choke and despair! At the same time, a thunderous shout suddenly exploded in the world like a thunderp. ¡°If you don¡¯t want to die, stop!¡± As if he didn¡¯t hear anything, Link chopped down the Prophet of Death in front of him, along with thergest Abomination! Blood and flesh flew everywhere; severed limbs and bodily fluids sshed all over! But Link had already floated to the ground. His white robe fluttered in the night breeze, and he seemed awe-inspiring and immortal-like! ¡°This is not the first Stage Five monster I¡¯ve killed, nor will it be thest,¡± responded Link coldly. The Silent Domain instantly shattered. However, this ce was still dead silent! Both the Undead monsters and the crowd of human beings were deeply shocked by Link¡¯s powerful and terrifying sword! Xue Linglong and the others looked at Link¡¯s straight back with glittering eyes! A momentter, sneeringughter rang out. ¡°Not the first? It seems you¡¯ve killed Stage Five Undead before. This General has suddenly shifted his attention. You are indeed an interesting gnat.¡± ¡°If you are willing to submit and be This General¡¯s ve, This General can spare your life!¡± An arrogant and majestic voice came from the Undead Army¡¯s rear. Along with it came an extremely terrifying aura! The power of death spurted out like a tidal wave, and a terrifying aura spread out! The Undead Army automatically parted to make a path. Countless Undead monsters couldn¡¯t help but tremble due to the aura nketing them. The soul fire in their eyes flickered like a candle me in the wind! A group of Evil Bone Beasts¡ªwhich looked like mountains of bones¡ªsoon stepped into the crowd¡¯s view! There were seven of them. When they galloped together, the ground shook! However, these terrifying monsters were merely the pets of the man in the chariot! On the huge chariot, a humanoid monster¡ªleaning on a huge sword with a ghostly glow¡ªgazed at Link, amused! The air seemed to freeze with the Stage Five, Level 10 existence¡¯s aura¡ªabout to cross into Stage Six! Luo Xinghe and the others paled, and they felt almost suffocated! Chapter 108: Might of the Sword! Evil General!

Chapter 108: Might of the Sword! Evil General!

Link stared at the terrifying being on the huge chariot, his expression cold. Then, he indifferently raised the [King¡¯s Sword] with his hand and directly pointed its sharp tip at the chariot! Perhaps some people were willing to spend their lives on their knees and even take pride in serving these monsters that came out of the abyss, but not Link! He said tly, ¡°Not me. Even if you are willing to submit to me, I will cut off your head!¡± The words fell with force. The Undead General on top of the chariot had not expected Link to reply in this way, and his expression appeared to freeze for a moment. Then, monstrous murderous intent surfaced! Several of the Evil Bone Beasts pulling the chariot trembled! Not only did Link¡¯s words embarrass the Evil General, but they smacked him hard in the face like a vicious p! At this moment, this general¡ªwho was in charge of thousands of Undead beings¡ªwas so furious he wanted to eat Link alive. ¡°Very good! You really are an interesting human! When This General captures you and makes you into the lowliest of Undead beings, I hope you can still be so arrogant!¡± An announcement sounded in Link¡¯s mind. [Evil General] Race: Scourge Profession: General Level: Stage Five, Level 10 Introduction: One of the Scourge¡¯s generals, the sower of death and despair! ... Link¡¯s heart clenched slightly. In his previous life, the strongest being in the Undead Army that destroyed Dragon City was also the Evil General. But the one that appeared in front of him seemed to be even stronger. This was probably because nobody had used a City Building to formally establish a city here in Link¡¯s previous life. It was only a gathering ce for humans, so the Undead monsters they faced were also weaker. Unfallen City was recognized by heaven and earth. If it wanted to be formally established, it would have to face more demanding challenges! While Link was lost in his thoughts, the Evil General on the chariot waved his hand, and a ck light started shining. The chains that bound the Evil Bone Beasts broke and fell to the ground. The seven Evil Bone Beasts¡ªwhich were now unbound¡ªall roared and locked onto Link, swiftly charging toward him! ¡°Roar!¡± The Evil Bone Beasts¡¯ roar was so terrifying that it seemed to tear apart one¡¯s eardrums! Their huge bodies were like mountains of bones. When they ran, the ground shook, and sand sttered! Like seven barbaric mountains, Seven Evil bone Beasts ruthlessly charged toward Link with a burst of monstrous power! At this moment, only a few seconds remained for [Rage of the Holy Sword]¡¯s effects. Link executed the [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique] without hesitation! Suddenly, boundless sword energy gathered around Link¡¯s body. It was vast and powerful as if ready to destroy everything in the world! Link¡¯s white robes pped, and his expression was indifferent. He looked like a sword immortal at the peak of their swordy, uninterested in all things as his sword was out to astonish the sky! As the [King¡¯s Sword] fell, streams of sword energy gathered like the vast ocean and shot toward the seven Evil Bone Beasts! At this moment, even the Evil Bone Beasts¡ªwhich were extremely tyrannical and filled with bloodlust¡ªgrew fearful! The army of Undead monsters trembled under this powerful and terrifying sword attack! The Evil General¡¯s eyes shed with dread and shock, but he quickly regained hisposure. The Evil General could tell that the human in front of him was definitely in a special state since Link was able to release such horrifying strength. But this special state was temporary. To the Evil General, Link was merely a slightlyrger ant! The Evil Bone Beasts suddenly slowed down; they even wanted to turn around and flee. But due to the inertial force, they couldn¡¯t avoid the iing sword energy! In an instant, streams of swift and quick sword energy engulfed the seven Evil Bone Beasts. The Evil Bone Beasts didn¡¯t even manage to make a sound! The seven Evil Bone Beasts were instantly blown apart by Link! A mushroom cloud formed where the sword energy exploded. It was a terrifying burst of power! Everyone in Unfallen City was dumbfounded! That must be fake?! Is a Stage Four powerhouse capable of this? Fatty Lu Da swallowed hard and said slowly, ¡°Brother Link... is just too fierce!¡± Luo Xinghe and the others in the city were full of amazement at this point. They were once again stunned by Link! Even Xue Linglong and Luo Xingyao couldn¡¯t help their shocked expressions. Their red lips were slightly parted and were touched. On the huge chariot, the Evil General felt cold in his heart. But he remained unyielding as he let out a cold snort. ¡°Not bad, but how long can you remain in this state?¡± He waved hisrge hand. Numerous Undead monsters and a few Abominations charged at Link. The Evil General had already set his mind on eliminating this person before his eyes. Link still looked indifferent as he lifted his sword toward the surge of Undead monsters and Abominations. Although the [Rage of the Holy Sword]¡¯s effects had ended, those monsters were no match for Link. At this moment, the six-winged Yuna waved her staff and released golden holy light! [Holy Light Purification]! Rays of golden holy light fell like shooting stars. A crowd of Undead creatures instantly burned with holy mes! The God Devourer Ant turned into a dark glow, swung its front limbs, and smashed an Abomination into mush! The Evil General noticed the few extraordinary summoned creatures, and the corners of his eyes couldn¡¯t help but twitch. Could this human be a Summoner? Shouldn¡¯t Summoners be weak themselves? The Evil General was surprised, but he was not afraid. Instead, his urge to kill Link became stronger! Such a transcendent human must not be allowed to grow any further; otherwise, it will be a great disaster to me and even the Scourge! Realizing that Link was not in as good a condition as before, the Evil General got up from his throne violently. ¡°Human, I will be taking your soul!¡± The next moment, the Evil General morphed into a shadow and shot toward Link with a huge sword in hand! The huge sword shed down, bringing with it the terrifying power of death! The Evil General had no intention of holding back. He wanted to kill this human with one blow! A portion of Link¡¯s attention was keeping watch of the Evil General¡¯s movements. When he saw the Evil Generaling, Link turned around to fight him! Swords shed. The ghostly green power of death and the brilliant golden sword gleam collided and intertwined! The sound of an explosion was heard. The terrifying, resulting shockwave was like a raging storm! The huge stones on the ground were sent flying by their battle¡¯s aftershocks! In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged several blows. The more the Evil General fought with Link, the stronger the chills in his heart! The human in front of him was clearly only a Stage Four existence, yet the human was holding his own in the match against himself. In fact, the human seemed to be slightly stronger! This was beyond the Evil General¡¯s imagination! He was an Undead General that was about to be promoted to Stage Six. Shouldn¡¯t his attributes be far superior to the human in front of him? Boom! Another collision! Link sent the Evil General flying! ck blood dribbled from the corner of the Evil General¡¯s mouth. The expression in his eyes turned grim, and he suddenly shouted, ¡°Undead Offering, open the Door of Abyss! This human must not be allowed to live!¡± Chapter 109: Offering Sacrifice! Door of Abyss!

Chapter 109: Offering Sacrifice! Door of Abyss!

With the Evil General¡¯s order, many Dark Priests draped in tattered robes walked out from the Undead army. They held staffs that glowed with cold light. An aura that made one restless at heart lingered around them. Door of Abyss! Link was instantly alert. This being his second lifetime, he¡¯d once heard rumors about the Door of Abyss. This was a teleportation door that Undead creatures prepared for high-level existences in the abyss. It could connect and receive terrifying monsters in the abyss. In Link¡¯s previous life, the Undead army had once attacked and upied multiple human cities. They then used hundreds of thousands of fresh lives in the cities as sacrifices to open the Door of Abyss. Ultimately, they sessfully received a general-level existence in the Scourge, and the surrounding areas were directly met with destruction! How could Link allow the Dark Priests to do as they wished? His countenance was ice cold. The sword energy surrounding him became increasingly turbulent and fearsome! At this moment, the Dark Priest Squad had already begun their performance. Mysterious, obscure, and filthy chants sounded, apanied by the strange twisting of their limbs. It was like a witch sacrifice before eternity, but it also resembled the people of the darkness greeting their god. Merely witnessing the scene had made Luo Xinghe andpany feel extremely ufortable. It felt as if something was in their chests, squirming, sprouting, and about to break out of their bodies! Under the chants¡¯ apaniment, streams of light swiftly condensed, outlining aplicated array structure. Even the space around them vaguely distorted as if it was about to be ripped apart! ¡°Die!¡± With this violent roar, nothing else was said. Link had turned into a phantom, shooting out like an arrow that left its bow. His sword¡¯s icy de was pointed right at the Dark Priest Squad. The earth and rock beneath their feet were cracking at every inch because of his steps. ¡°Insignificant one, your flustered manner really puts one in a good mood!¡± The Evil General blocked Link¡¯s way forward with a huge sword in hand. His phantom-green eyes were full of contemtion and mockery! The knot in the Evil General¡¯s stomach hadpletely been undone after making use of the Door of Abyss to bring high-level existences over, allowing him to be full of confidence once again. Boom! The two people collided instantly, and golden rays crossed with a dim green glow! A storm swept across, and the surrounding Undead creatures were directly destroyed by the afterwinds. Each skeleton turned into shavings, whirling in the air. Link was in no mood to engage the Evil General endlessly. After their des shed, a [Holy Charge] directly met the Evil General! Golden holy light enveloped Link¡ªnothing could stop the charge! After the Evil General was hit, his body instantly flew ck, and he was briefly stunned. At this moment, Link directlyunched [Holy Spirit Ne]¡¯s active skill, [Holy Sword of the Light]! A brilliant ray of holy white light descended as if it had fallen from the zenith¡ªmajestic and vast! The power of the light ray subsequently condensed to form a huge holy sword, which shed down from mid-air as if it were an extremely sacred, primordial divine punishment that was here to dispel evil! [Holy Sword of the Light]¡ªwhich caused Light damage 1,000% of one¡¯s Intelligence attribute¡ªwas undoubtedly a powerful skill against the Undead creatures! Even the Stage Five, Level 10 Evil General felt a strong uneasiness surface in his heart when he faced the falling holy sword. It was as if he was a prisoner awaiting his trial. ¡°Souls of the dead, turn into my shield!¡± Finally, the Evil General broke out of his stunned state and let out a violent cry before the holy swordnded. Streaks of dark-green rays burst out from around him like the Styx pouring out. A massive shield wall stood between the heavens and earth. The shield wall was full of warped, hideous human faces as if it condensed death! Boom! Amidst a deafening roar, the shield wall shattered into pieces! The [Holy Sword of the Light] turned into a fiery holy me, burning the broken pieces of the shield wall. The Evil General was also knocked back, and white holy light wound around his body. At this time, the Dark Priests¡¯ chants were drawing to an end. The massive teleportation array outline¡ªcreated with death and the forces of darkness¡ªbegan to take shape. It was like a pitch-ck whirlpool had appeared, there were deep purple rays circting inside it! The Undead creatures were directly sacrificed. Their soul fires were sucked into the pitch-ck whirlpool like concentrated groups of fireflies. Luo Xinghe and others were even more horrified! Within the whirlpool seemed to be an extremely terrifying aura seeping out. The aura came from a fearsome existence that the heavens and earth would tremble for. Luo Xingyao, Xue Linglong, and a few others¡ªwho had more talent and far sharper senses than the average person¡ªeven saw the extremely frightening scene behind the jet-ck whirlpool... In a certain pitch-ck, chaotic, indescribable area of the universe, an eye¡ªeven bigger than a¡ªinstantly opened. It focused on the Blue Star that they were on from far away... Link¡ªwho possessed a Taboo-grade profession¡ªnaturally caught this spine-chilling scene too. He did not hesitate in the slightest. The [Ring of Teleportation] on his hand glimmered with a faint-silver glow, and he directly teleported to the Dark Priest Squad¡¯s center. He was like a sacrificial offering that willingly went to the doorstep. However, the crowd of Dark Priests all turned pale with fear! The human being before them was an existence strong enough to suppress the Evil General. How would they dare take him lightly? Link wasn¡¯t a random little white rabbit but a tyrannical dragon strong enough to wipe them out! ¡°Stop him! We cannot let him destroy the Door of Abyss!¡± Several Undead creatures were shouting. Multiple Dark Priests stopped what they were doing and cooperated with the Undead monsters surging toward this side tounch attacks at Link. Dark energy gathered, and weapons stained with the power of death shot toward Link fiercely! But Link clearly wasn¡¯t someone they could shake. Streams of sword energy swept out like the beating of angry torrents, and the swift and fierce sword energy directly annihted the few Dark Priests. Chills surged in the Undead creatures¡¯ hearts. The human before them was outrageously dominant. Inparison, it seemed as if they were the ants being crushed! Meanwhile, the six-winged angel Yuna and God Devourer Ant had also arrived. The Dark Priests and Undead creatures were either blown to pieces or burned by the holy mes. The ck whirlpool that traversed the air vaguely became slightly unstable, and disordered energy was all around. After killing thest few Dark Priests maintaining the Door of Abyss, Link directly sent a strike toward the semi-finished Door of Abyss without any hesitation! A golden ray burst forth from the [King¡¯s Sword] like a golden phoenix spreading its wings, about to tear this whirlpool before it apart. ¡°No!¡± Amidst his violent cry, the Evil General¡ªwho had blood at the corner of his mouth¡ªabruptly threw out the huge longsword in his hands. The longsword, wrapped in a dense mist of death, actually transmogrified into arge phantom bat in its outer appearance. It¡¯s massive wings spread open, seeking to stop Link¡¯s attack. A rip sounded. Therge phantom bat had merely worn down some of the sword ray¡¯s energy before it was torn apart by the sword ray. ck runes lit up around the ck whirlpool¡ªwhich was struck by the sword ray, and a small half of it instantly vanished. The whirlpool then became even more iplete and messy. Link lifted his hand once again, about to send another strike to destroy it. Meanwhile, a dark figure had already leaped up! It was the Evil General, who had hurriedly rushed over. He did not stop Link. Instead, he spread his arms wide open and threw himself into the ck whirlpool! He clearly wanted to use himself as a sacrifice toplete the sacrificial offering and open the Door of Abyss! Although the ritual was iplete, and the teleportation portal¡ªwhich used a magic circle as its base¡ªwas also damaged, it would probably still be able to receive an existence strong enough to wipe out this human before him. The Evil General thought silently and fell toward the ck whirlpool, his face full of grimness and resentment! Chapter 110: Stage Six! Dark Sage!

Chapter 110: Stage Six! Dark Sage!

Within seconds, the Evil General was devoured by the ck whirlpool! At the final moment, the madness and savageness revealed on this Undead General¡¯s face chilled everyone¡¯s hearts. The ck whirlpool¡ªwhich was like a huge mouth of the abyss¡ªhad a moment of peace. But the dark-purple radiance exploded a few breathster, directly tearing the space apart to construct a massive door. The door was made up of energy, but it was like a tangible object. It was covered in marks of passing time and strange runes. With a creak, a frightening aura spread out from the door! The teleportation door¡ªwhich was like the gates to hell¡ªslowly opened! The hearts in the masses¡¯ chests instantly shrunk. Somehow, a pair of cold palms seemed to have squeezed their throats! The gurgle of saliva being swallowed sounded. Their nervous heartbeats were like the beating of drums. Everyone¡¯s hands and feet were cold; the hair on their backs was upright! The frightening existence in the abyss had ultimately stepped foot in this world... Immense suppression and fear mmed down on everyone! Link furrowed his brows slightly. The [King¡¯s Sword] in his hand was swung, and a sword ray leaped out. Yuna also called out a ball of holy light energy, smashing it on the door like a cannonball. But the Door of Abyss¡¯s opening could no longer be interrupted. Link¡¯s countenance was cold as he stood with his sword in hand. A purple w emerged from the void; then, it was an entire purple body. The monster that stepped out from the Door of Abyss was only armored around its few vital spots. Purple muscles knotted all around its body, and sharp spike-like bumps were even on its back! Its face was like abination of a fish and an octopus¡ªit looked extremely strange as its purple beard and hair fluttered. As this purple monster walked out, the massive door vanished. At the same time, a notification entered everyone¡¯s minds. [Dark Sage] Race: Undead Army Profession: Dark Sage Level: Stage 6, Level 2 Introduction: The majority of the fanatics who study dark magic in the abyss are devoured by the insane and taboo knowledge they learn. Dark Sages are clearly the best of them. They possess the ability to overturn the battle situation. They prove to the abyss that destruction and obliteration do not require sharp weapons. ... The Dark Sage¡ªwhose appearance in human aesthetics could only be described using the words ¡®hideous¡¯ and ¡®strange¡¯¡ªdid not immediately strike upon arriving in the world. He instead examined his surroundings and let out a sigh. The abyss¡¯s evilnguage was directly tranted by the [Doomsday Online] system into contentprehensible by the humans and rang in their ears. ¡°It really wasn¡¯t easy toe to this. The past glory is no more, and even your gods have died. Yet, the¡¯s will remains, preventing the superior beings in the abyss from arriving... Truly a strange ce.¡± ¡°Speak.¡± The monster turned his head and focused his gaze on the humans. He seemed to be looking at a bunch of small and weak insects. His tone was evenpletely emotionless¡ªit only containedmanding disdain. ¡°How do you want to die?¡± Many low-level [Doomsday Online] yers were directly suppressed by the Dark Sage¡¯s aura to the point that they felt stiff all over, unable to speak with trembling bodies. Link also sensed the forces of darkness abruptly surging around him. The Dark Sage before him was like a ck sun¡ªhis might was towering. However, there was still only coldness on Link¡¯s face. There wasn¡¯t the slightest bit of timidity. After advancing to Stage Four, Link¡¯s attributes had increased significantly. Even though he was facing a Stage Six monster, it didn¡¯t mean that he was incapable of fighting against it! On the contrary, the words uttered by the Dark Sage caused a stir in Link¡¯s heart. The¡¯s will prevents the superior beings in the abyss from directly stepping into the world. This is probably the true reason why the Undead army only arrived on the tenth day of the apocalyptic world¡¯s descent. The system update was merely a guise. If the Undead army were to attack at the beginning, or if the frightening existences in the abyss had arrived, humanity probably wouldn¡¯t even have the slightest chance to breathe and grow. But Link had also heard of a rumor in his previous life¡ªthat a certain kind of protection mechanism actually existed on Blue Star. For example, [Doomsday Online] was an opportunity for humanity to evolve and grow. This game system allowed one to transition through the levels of life within a short period of time. However, such a protection mechanism was not immutable. Following thepse of time or the Undead creatures¡¯ influence, increasingly more terrifying existences would arrive on Blue Star¡ªsuch as the Zergs, who followed closely behind the Undead creatures... As his thoughts spun swiftly, Link unhesitatingly swung his sword at the Dark Sage before him! The [King¡¯s Sword] was brandished, and streaks of fast and strong sword energy swept toward the Dark Sage like a vast and mighty river! Yuna wasn¡¯t idle either. The holy light gathered at her staff was already at the limit. It turned into an incandescent ball of light and shot out! God Devourer Ant also turned into a dark glow and pounced at the Dark Sage. Meanwhile, Star Moon remained with Xue Linglong and the remaining [Doomsday Online] yers to jointly fend off the Undead army¡ªwhich had be fierce and aggressive once more. Roars and battle cries unceasingly rang out! A purple glow rippled out from around the Dark Sage. Once the sword energy and holy light entered the glow¡¯s range, both dissipated into nothingness like pebbles dropped into the sea. As God Devourer Ant approached the Dark Sage¡¯s front, the purple glow suddenly burst out with a powerful counterforce and pushed it away. Some hints of graveness were revealed on Yuna¡¯s holy and wless face. She spoke to Link via thoughts. ¡®Master, this monster seems capable of absorbing our attacks and turning them into a counterforce!¡¯ Link softly nodded as light shed in his eyes. The Dark Sage is a monster wearing an armor of reflection! However, there should be a limit to thisyer of defense. It is impossible for the Dark Sage to transform all attacks unconditionally. We have to figure out its limits as quickly as possible with our subsequent attacks! The Dark Sage lightly nodded as he watched Link. ¡°You are the strongest among this bunch of humans, aren¡¯t you? Able to disy such might at Stage Four... If you develop further, you might turn out to be a small trouble. I had better get rid of you as soon as possible.¡± Once his words fell, a frightening aura unrolled. The Dark Sage stretched his palm toward Link, and a dark-purple glow red. A suction force was abruptly produced! Link¡¯s body was instantly sucked uncontrobly toward the Dark Sage. It was as though a ck hole, which devoured everything, existed there! ¡°This...¡± Hints of nervousness and worry shed across the faces of Xue Linglong, Qiao Ruowei, and the others¡ªwho¡¯d ced a part of their attention on this end the whole time. Their pretty faces were slightly pale. The Dark Sage was a Stage Six monster¡ªtwo stages above humankind¡¯s top Stage Four powerhouse. It was a presence strong enough to wipe out all of them! Who could remain calm at this point? As this all happened, Link just gripped the [King¡¯s Sword] in his hand tightly and didn¡¯t hesitate tounch a [Holy Charge] as the appetizer! Golden light enveloped him as he cut forward like arge, golden sword! Boom! Amidst the sound of the roar, the Dark Sage was forcefully sent flying by [Holy Charge]¡¯s effect. He appeared to be slightly dismayed and surprised. Link and Yuna continued to send several more attacks at the Dark Sage in quick session. The ground instantly turned into flying gravel as smoke and dust filled the air. ¡°Interesting.¡± Contemtiveughter came from the smoke and dust. The Dark Sage waved his hand to dispel the smoke and smoke, and purple glows danced in his eyes. ¡°As payback, I shall let you people¡ªwho are insignificant like ants¡ªtake a look at the art of the darkness!¡± In an instant, the Dark Sage began chanting a strange spell. He lifted both his hands and a ball of purple energy condensed within them. He looked like he was lifting a big ck sun, and the aura became increasingly terrifying! Chapter 111: Mirror of Illusion! Mask of the Faceless!

Chapter 111: Mirror of Illusion! Mask of the Faceless!

An aura from the dark abyss swept across the area, and everyone felt chills all over. Indistinct evil snarls even seemed to be sounding by their ears! Looking at Dark Sage¡¯s Demon Lord-like form, many people held their breaths instantly. Their hearts were filled with nervousness and fear. The ball of energy¡ªwhich was like a ck sun¡ªexploded. An energy storm wreaked havoc in the area at once! Waves¡ªthat rippled outward¡ªappeared in mid-air, and it seemed to have turned into a water surface. Pieces of mirrors¡ªwith runes glowing and shining on the edges¡ªthen emerged in the air, not far from the humans. The area was almost entirely covered by smooth rivers, bing a world in the mirror. The mirrors reflected every pale face and figure! The unknown often made one fearful. Everyone had never heard of such a scene before, so exmations rose unceasingly. ¡°What is this?¡± ¡°So many mirrors; is this magic? Or is it a domain skill like the Prophet of Death¡¯s silence domain?¡± ¡°We¡¯re all being reflected in the mirrors... Will there be some frightening consequences?¡± ¡°Why do I feel like my reflection in the mirror is strange!¡± The [Doomsday Online] yers vigntly stared at the mirrors not far from them. Some people attempted to do an action, but the ¡®them¡¯ in the mirrors did not reflect the change. ¡®They¡¯ remained rooted to the spot instead. There were even people in the mirrors whose mouth corners lifted slightly to reveal unusually evil smiles... Many people¡¯s hair instantly stood on end! However, the even scarier events had yet toe. Deep-purple glows rose from the smooth mirror pieces; there were ripples on them like water surfaces. The reflections originally inside the mirrors actually began walking out of the mirrors slowly! These mirror people were exactly like their original owners in terms of appearances, even levels, and weapons. The moment they stepped out of the mirror, they started sending attacks at their original ¡®owners¡¯¡ªwho weren¡¯t far away¡ªwithout hesitation. Before some [Doomsday Online] yers could react, the cold des had already struck them, and blood stained their clothes! ¡°Monsters! These monsters in the mirrors are exactly like us¡ªeven the skills they wield are the same!¡± eximed someone after engaging with mirror people. Xue Linglong, Luo Xinghe, and the other closebat experts were also frowning hard as they became entangled with fighting their own mirror images. These reflections practically possessed the samebat ability as their original owners; it was difficult to determine the winner for a time. Together with the surrounding Undead creatures¡¯ attacks, the [Doomsday Online] yers instantly sunk into a painful battle, and the situation was not optimistic! The Dark Sage watched the masses battle it out with their reflections. The corner of his mouth moved, and he seemed to be smiling. ¡°Truly a beautiful scene that pleases one.¡± All of a sudden, he let out a soft ¡®eh¡¯ and looked in a certain direction. At this moment, a small beast with a dense blood mist lingering around it¡ªwhich was hiding between the gravel¡ªsuddenly exploded, turning into fresh, crimson blood that flew in all directions! In the distance, Bloodseeker¡ªwho was in the city ruins¡ªsuddenly trembled. A streak of fear and panic shed across his withered face. The Blood Fiend Gang members noticed his unusualness and asked, ¡°Master, are you alright?¡± Bloodseeker shook his head lightly, but a few hints of fear remained in his eyes. ¡°I¡¯m fine. One of my blood shadow clones was destroyed. To think a Stage Six abyss creature actually appeared during the siege this time! It seems like Link is surely dead! It¡¯s truly regrettable that I cannot tear off his head personally!¡± Listening to Bloodseeker¡¯s recount, the Blood Fiend Gang members all revealed looks of shock. Stage Six abyss creature!? That is absolutely an existence that current humans can¡¯t counter! Such a terrifying creature has actually arrived so early? ... In front of Unfallen City, a crowd of Undead creatures and mirror images constantlyunched attacks, closing in with every step. When the Dark Sage looked in Link¡¯s direction, a speck of surprise indistinctly shed through his eyes. Not far from Link was also a space with lit-up runes that then became a smooth mirror. It was about to cast his reflection. But while the [Doomsday Online] yers¡¯ reflections had taken form and walked out of the mirrors, the reflection that belonged to Link remained in a misty state. A ck shadow cloud was inside the mirror. It squirmed ceaselessly, unable to take form even after a long time had passed. The Dark Sage¡¯s eyes narrowed, and his heart shook slightly. Creating a mirror image with the same ability as its original was a unique skill simr to curses and domains, and it would consume his magic. The more powerful the existence, the greater the difficulty in creating a reflection resembling it. Even if the reflection was created, its capabilities would be significantly weaker. However, the aura radiating from the human before me is merely a Stage Four one. Why is it so difficult to create his reflection? This ispletely beyond logic! The corners of the Dark Sage¡¯s eyes twitched slightly, and he upped the magic output. The more magic the Dark Sage released, the more surprised he was in his heart! The mirror near Link was like a bottomless ck hole that continuously devoured his magic, so much so that he sensed threads of extremely unusual traits and auraing from that human being! That was [Death] and [Void]! How can a mere human possess such an aura? Even the Dark Sage¡¯s heart was no longer calm now! Following the continuous infusion of magic, the purple glow on the mirror near Link intensified even more. The squirming of the ck figure inside the mirror also sped up. Link stared at the mirror, feeling slightly moved. He possessed the Taboo-grade profession¡ª[Great Void Taboo Master]¡ªas well as a Super God-grade profession, [Death Judge]. It was practically impossible to clone him. Link did not allow the Dark Sage to exercise his skills, but he quickly brought out a strange mask. The mask was glossy and simple, seemingly made from the skin of a certain unknown creature. There was a jet-ck whirlpool drawn on it. After looking at it for a long time, one would feel as if their mind was about to be devoured by that ck whirlpool and then degenerate and be warped with it. This was the reward Link had obtained after clearing Killing Purgatory and earned a SSS rating. Through [Supreme Blessing], [Lost Mask] had be [Mask of the Faceless]! [Mask of the Faceless] Grade: Myth (Upgradable) Description: The lost mask of a certain taboo existence with countless incarnations. It can be a present that drives one to madness or a gift that causes disaster. Additional skill 1: [Faceless] (Passive Skill): Wearer will receive the chaos¡¯s protection. Wearer cannot be deduced, spotted, and identified¡ª¡ªCreeping within the chaos, ¡®He¡¯ is the god of a thousand faces. Additional skill 2: [Cirrus Limbs] (Active Skill): Wearer can extend mental strength into cirrus form. The wearer can expend mental strength to carry out attacks or defensive maneuvers. When using Cirrus Limbs, all attributes increased by 100%. Skill additionally causes spiritual pollution to enemy units when offensively striking¡ª¡ªCirrus that dances wildly with an indescribable body; ¡®He¡¯ is chaos itself. Additional skill 3: [God of Evil¡¯s Whispers] (Active Skill): Wearer mobilizes mental strength and strength within the mask to release God of Evil¡¯s whispers, causing mental confusion to enemy units. There is a 10% chance of directly causing enemy units to degenerate and be twisted¡ª¡ªListen! Sounds of madness keeping from the chaos... Additional skill 4: [Chao¡¯s Messenger]: Hidden skill. As the Mask of the Faceless is damaged, this skill cannot be used! ... This was an extremely powerful piece of equipment, but it was more inclined to chaos and degeneration. Using it might bring disaster to himself, so Link had not used it previously. Presently faced with Stage Six monsters, Link ced the mask that radiated evil on his face without any hesitation. Chapter 112: Aberration! God of Evil鈥檚 Whispers!

Chapter 112: Aberration! God of Evil¡¯s Whispers!

p! A soft sound. The moment the mask covered Link¡¯s face, it made changes on its own. It extended and contracted as if it had dissolved into a puddle of liquid, extremely molded to Link¡¯s face. At the same time, strange and twisted whispers appeared with it. In a trance, Link only felt like all the light in his surroundings dimmed at once. The masses who were fighting and the Dark Sage had all vanished. There was only a fog-like mist before his eyes. In the darkness that could not be seen through, an unknown existence seemed to be hidden and was snickering softly. ¡°He¡¯s... here.¡± ¡°He¡¯s finally here.¡± ¡°Link...¡± As whispers continuously entered his ears, the back of Link¡¯s neck also turned cold instantly. It was as if some sort of slimy cirrus had brushed across it, and it made him uneasy in his heart. At the same time, the [Fearless Pathfinder] title¡¯s passive skill, [Fearless], also began taking effect. Link only felt a warmth surge in his chest that directly reached his brain afterward. It instantly pulled him out of the cold and strange state. The scene before his eyes returned, and the strange and menacing whispers by his ears also subsided like the tide. A dim gleam shed through Link¡¯s eyes as he exhaled lightly. This piece of equipment probably came from a certain heretic god and inherently carried the pollution that drove people to degeneration and insanity. If the average man hastily used it, he might get corroded then and there. A frightening abnormality might even ur. Even though Link possessed [Fearless], a passive skill, he maintained the attitude of giving the item a wide berth. In his previous lifetime, Link had, after all, heard about some [Doomsday Online] yers being corroded by certain things. They then lost their minds and turned into monsters. When Link put on the mask, the reflection in the mirror¡ªoriginally slowly taking form ording to his aura¡ªsuddenly faltered; then, it actually began contorting crazily! The ck figure that had already taken on human form suddenly copsed, disintegrated, and turned into a pile of mud. Many pitch-ck, cirrus-like limbs swiftly grew out from that slush-like body, which then swung out harshly and struck the mirror! Boom! A stifled pping sound rose together with the cracking sounds. Frightening cracks suddenly appeared on the smooth mirror that was made from space, swiftly extending like a spiderweb. This strange scene waspletely different from the others¡¯ mirrors. The aberrated creature in the mirror radiated a crazy aura, which set a chill in one¡¯s heart. Even the Dark Sage, who cast the [Mirror of Illusion] was quite stunned! The scene before his eyes had not been manipted by him at all. There were even auras of degeneration and madness swiftly climbing over through the connection between himself and the aberrated reflection. This forced the Dark Sage to cut the connection on his own initiative. The aberrated reflection had already exceeded his control! ¡°What exactly have you done?¡± questioned The Dark Sage. There was no longer the earlier disdain and superiority in his tone. Link did not respond. He only gripped the [King¡¯s Sword] in his hand tightly. His gaze was sharp as he watched the changes in the mirror. The Dark Sage¡¯s countenance became even colder. He stared at the strange mask on Link¡¯s face. Uneasiness actually rose vaguely in his heart. ¡°It¡¯s the influence of that mask! Why do you own so many strange items?!¡± Before his words fell, the mirror that was covered in cracks could no longer bear the weight and waspletely destroyed, bringing with it an explosive roar. A deformed and warped figure surged out from the mirror! Its body was like a lump of haphazard sludge. It was constantly squirming while the cirri danced wildly. A good number of the cirri even curled toward the Dark Sage! The Dark Sage did not make use of the anti-shock barrier that nketed him to block the cirri. Instead, he struck without the slightest bit of hesitation, seeming extremely wary of such attacks. Streaks of deep-purple rays mmed into the warped reflection, repeatedly tearing up those cirri and the mud-like body. However, the aberrated reflection disyed a terrifying [Regenerate] ability. The torn-up cirri crept out of the sludge-like body without end, and the sight was frightening. Degeneration and aberration; these should not be the powers of humankind! Could it be that this human has a connection to those indescribables?! thought the Dark Sage inwardly. Faint chills had even risen in him, and he was unwilling to remain here. The aura around Link surged as he prepared to strike. The reflection¡¯s aberrations probably had to do with the [Mask of the Faceless], and such changes were clearly what the Dark Sage feared. Link had taken all of this in very quickly. While the Dark Sage was being attacked, Link alsounched his offense at the same time. Howls of the wind sounded! A sword ray shed out with a whistle, yet it was no longer golden or silver but an uneasy gray. After putting on the mask, certain changes had happened to Link¡¯s attack attributes. He now had a strange strength. Yuna¡ªwho was presently resisting the reflections and Undead army with God Devourer Ant¡ªalso swung her staff, throwing a golden ball of light at the Dark Sage. Boom! A loud explosive sound reverberated. The gray sword energy was not absorbed by the rippling purple waves this time. Instead, it swiftly cut through the anti-shock barrier like a hot knife slicing through butter andnded on the Dark Sage! The Dark Sage took multiple steps back; there were even faint traces of blood at the corner of his mouth! The attack was effective and even caused [True Damage]. Link no longer had any reservations and continued to strike. Meanwhile, Yuna¡¯s holy light energy had also arrived and bloomed on the spot. The Dark Sage used the anti-shock barrier to absorb part of the holy light¡¯s might and countered Link. The aberrated reflection instead let out a piercing nicker after the holy light brushed it, seeming to have suffered considerable trauma! The Dark Sage took the chance andunched a violent offense at the aberrated reflection. The terrifying purple rays seemed as if they sought to destroy the universe as they repeatedly mmed into the reflection! Finally, the reflectionpletely copsed and disintegrated. There was only a deep, fearsome pit and some ck substance left on the ground. The holy light seems to have a miraculous effect on such warped monsters. Such a thought shed through Link¡¯s heart. His figure had already swept to the Dark Sage¡¯s front. The sword ray shed down, and Link simultaneously employed the mask¡¯s ability without hesitation. [God of Evil¡¯s Whispers]! In the twinkling of an eye, even the surrounding space became vaguely distorted. The Dark Sage felt as if he had fallen into a certain lightless environment. The darkness¡ªwhich gave him a sense of intimacy in the past¡ªnow made him feel fear! The darkness crashed over like a tide. Amidst it seemed to be cirri and arms reaching out, wanting to envelop the Dark Sage! It was as if someone was whispering into his ears. This was a fallen voice of madness¡ªit was instigating and tempting the Dark Sage. Meanwhile, from Link¡¯s point of view, he saw the Dark Sage suddenly turn dazed. A distorted ck figure then suddenly appeared behind him. The indescribable ck figure stretched out its arm and covered the Dark Sage¡¯s eyes. Its face pressed close to the Dark Sage¡¯s head and whispered very intimately. Such a scene sent chills up one¡¯s spine! Following that, squirming masses actually appeared on the Dark Sage¡¯s body. It was as though a certain thing was about to break through his blood and flesh and crawl out. [Aberration] was happening, and even a Stage Six monster could not resist it! Link was solemn. His mind¡¯s mental strength swiftly extended outward, turning into translucent cirri between virtual and reality around him. They headed to kill the Dark Sage! [Cirrus Limbs]! Chapter 113: Kill! The Outcome Is Set!

Chapter 113: Kill! The Oue Is Set!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios They were cirri formed by the extension of mental strength, but Link felt as if he couldmand them with ease. It was as if these cirri were his true limbs. The translucent cirri were like steel whips; the frightening st pressure almost broke the air! Under the 100% buff of all attributes, Link¡¯s hands¡ªwhich gripped his sword¡ªweren¡¯t idle either. Power of death gathered on the sword de. It was [Death Judgment]! At this moment, a jet-ck aura lingered around Link. His robes pped as if he was the god who controlled death, stepping out from the boundless underworld! A huge phantom abruptly appeared from behind Link! This was a figure entirely shrouded beneath ck robes. Once it appeared, it seemed like death itself. The universe had to tremble for it. The ck hood hid its face; only the big sickle in its hand gleamed with a startling glow! As the sword de danced, the sickle swung out toward the Dark Sage! Pu chi! The sword de and cirri tore through the air and practically arrived at the same time. During such a dire crisis, the Dark Sage¡ªwho was immersed in the [God of Evil¡¯s Whispers] state¡ªalso seemed to be alerted. His eyelids twitched slightly, wanting to sober up. After that, a roar¡ªwhich almost tore one¡¯s ear membranes apart¡ªexploded on scene. A terrifying air st swept across like a windstorm! As an abyss creature, the Dark Sage possessed a certain resistance against death-attribute attacks. But Link¡¯s attributes surpassed those of his peers at the same stage. Together with his boosted attributes, the might of this [Death Judgment] was extremely fearsome. It was enough to injure the Dark Sage severely. At the heart of the windstorm. The sand and stones on the ground were cracked, and gullies crisscrossed the space. The Dark Sage¡¯s armor splintered, and a massive wound almost tore him into two halves. Between the left and right sections of his body, only some flesh and skin were connected as purple blood dripped continuously. [Death Judgment]¡¯s instant death effect was not triggered, but the Dark Sage was still in an extremely miserable state presently. Moreover, under Link¡¯s powerful offense, the Dark Sage waspletely unable to concentrate on resisting the [God of Evil¡¯s Whispers]¡ªas well as the madness and pollution the cirri brought. [Aberration] and [Degeneration] also exploded within the Dark Sage¡¯s body! The masses all over his body squirmed madly. The Dark Sage¡¯s skin ripped apart, and cirri or blood-red eyes formed on his body unceasingly. Within a mere few breaths¡¯ time, the Dark Sage had lost his form and be a lump of flesh that constantly squirmed. An aura of insanity and degeneration surged out without end. ¡°I¡¯ll kill... kill you!¡± The Dark Sage¡ªwho looked entirely different¡ªopened the tens of mouths all over his body, which had grown due to the aberration, and released a hoarse snarl at the same time. But following the uncontroble aberration¡¯s continuation, itpletely drained thest of the Dark Sage¡¯s lifeforce. The flesh that formed the Dark Sage¡¯s body began to disintegrate on arge scale, crumbling into minced flesh. Link watched the Dark Sage¡ªwho¡¯d lost his mind¡ªturn into distorted pieces of flesh, feeling alert inwardly. ¡°This is the pollution and distortion produced by the [Mask of the Faceless]?¡± He contacted Yuna through his thoughts. ¡®Yuna, use Holy Light Purification.¡¯ Balls of holy light energy soon smashed the Dark Sage like meteors. Link also swung out streaks of sword energy, repeatedly chopping up the remnants of the Dark Sage. After being burnt by the golden holy mes, they finally erased this Dark Sage¡¯s existencepletely. A system notification also sounded in Link¡¯s mind. [Ding! Sessfully killed Stage Six Dark Sage. EXP +1,000,000!] [Ding! Cross-level kill detected. Gained 500% additional EXP!] ... Following the Dark Sage¡¯s annihtion, the reflections¡ªwhich were originally fighting with all the [Doomsday Online] yers¡ªalso distorted and shattered with the Dark Sage. The Undead creatures that had reached the city gates instantly froze. All the creatures sensed that the suppression belonging to the Dark Sage had vanished. For a time, the entire battleground became silent for this reason! Countless humans and Undead creatures simultaneously turned their heads and looked in Link¡¯s direction, all full of shock! ¡°The Stage Six Dark Sage is dead!¡± ¡°How is this possible?!¡± ¡°That is an existence summoned using the Door of Abyss! How could it die in the hands of a human?¡± Countless Undead instantly broke out into amotion, and hoarse exmations rose unceasingly! The soul fires deep within their eye sockets trembled violently, expressing their emotions of shock and disbelief. What kind of human being was this? He actually made them, the Undead, experience unprecedented fear! The Undead creatures were stunned by Link andpletely lost the will to fight. They practically became dazed on the spot. It was as though a huge hammer had harshlynded on their souls! Meanwhile, all the [Doomsday Online] yers became spirited at once. On the city wall. Fatty Lu Da sucked in a mouthful of cold air and could not help saying, ¡°Damn it! Link is too strong! Unfortunately, I, Fatty, am uncultured! I go around the world with just one word¡ªawesome...¡± ¡°Today is truly eye-opening!¡± Yang Xuerou¡ªwho was originally worried about Link¡ªheaved a sigh of relief. Her pretty face was full of agitation and delight. [Demon Sealing Arrow] Luo Xingyao could barely contain her shock at this point too. Her red lips slightly parted as she murmured, ¡°Is this Lord¡¯s true capability?¡± A Stage Six monster originally shouldn¡¯t have appeared in the siege. It was summoned by the Evil General with its life as the price, yet it ended up dying in Link¡¯s hands! One must know that Link was merely a Stage Four powerhouse like her! Yet, he could suppress a Stage Five existence and shred a Stage Six one! What kind of terrifyingbat power was this? Under the city. Luo Xinghe¡ªwho was fighting whilst bathed in blood¡ªpresently gazed at Link¡¯s back from far away; he was practically dazed. He thought inwardly, Lord¡¯s strengthening speed is too fast; it virtually puts one in despair! Xue Linglong, who was at the side, also stopped slightly. She stared at Link, a splendid radiance spinning in her beautiful eyes. ¡°City Master is mighty! Brothers, kill and crush all of these Undead that dare invade my Unfallen City!¡± Someone was greatly encouraged and shouted loudly, pouncing toward the Undead creatures once more. All the [Doomsday Online] yers responded sessively, and the cheers were unceasing. The pairs of eyes that nced at Link were full of reverence and agitation! ¡°Kill!¡± ¡°We absolutely cannot let these Undead creatures off!¡± ¡°Unfallen City shall never fall!¡± ... ¡°Those who attack my human race must be killed!¡± Luo Xinghe also let out a loud yell. The longsword in his hand was like a whirlwind as he joined in the killing of the Undead army even more ferociously. Presently, the Undead army¡¯s leader had already been killed by Link. Although there was still a considerable number of Undead, the army was without a leader. Moreover, with the help of [Territory of Thunder], Yuna, God Devourer Ant, and the other powerful summoned creatures, there was no longer any suspense to the battle. The [Doomsday Online] yers killed the Undead creatures in a crushing manner¡ªit was practically andslide. There was no need for Link to strike again. With his thoughts, the cirri¡ªconstructed using mental strength¡ªpicked up the few items on the ground and had them floating before him. These things were the items that the Stage Six Dark Sage had dropped¡ªa scroll and a circr-shaped mirror. There were still small amounts of ck substances remaining on them. Link did not touch them immediately. Instead, he nned on getting Yuna to purify the items before he examined his gains... Chapter 114: Request Reinforcements! No Retreat Army!

Chapter 114: Request Reinforcements! No Retreat Army!

The fight beneath the city was still on-going, but the horizon already showed traces of lighting up. The siege targeted at Unfallen City was drawing to an end. The [Doomsday Online] yers were killing the remaining Undead creatures, cleaning up the battlefield, and checking their gains. ¡°After killing the remaining Undead creatures, Unfallen City can then be a home city! We will also be able to have a safe homnd then!¡± said Yang Xuerou rather tedly. Luo Xingyao also nodded agitatedly. She couldn¡¯t help but turn her gaze to Link, who was by the side. In her eyes were admiration and dness. She knew very well that this siege was actually extremely dangerous. If it weren¡¯t for this man in front of her being present, they would have absolutely no way of getting through this. Just the Stage Five Evil General was enough to lead the Undead army and make a clean sweep of everything, let alone the Stage Six monster that came through the Door of Abyss. Luo Xingyao was very d that she had chosen to follow Link. After thinking back about it at this moment, this was a very correct decision. But it wasn¡¯t just Unfallen City that had encountered a siege. Today, the Undead army would sweep across all human cities and gathering points. Luo Xingyao slightly gritted her teeth and said solemnly, ¡°If the Undead army every city encounters is this frightening, I don¡¯t know how many cities will be able to survive at the very end...¡± ¡°Very few, and this is only the start. Only by constantly improving can we face the crises thate in rapid session.¡± Link looked up at the sky in the distance that was slightly white. Rays of morning sunlight scattered on that determined face, and his presence was outstanding. Luo Xingyao¡¯s gaze¡ªwhich was directed at Link¡ªfaltered slightly. Then, she abruptly turned her head, shifting her gaze away. There were traces of red on her pretty face now. She thought silently in her heart, If I continue following behind the Lord, I certainly will be able to see the dawn! ... ¡°Master, these two pieces of equipment have been cleansed.¡± The six-winged angel Yuna handed the equipment that the Dark Sage dropped back to Link. The ck substance on the items had been expelled by the holy light. The two items now revealed theirplete appearances, shining with glittering glows. They seemed rather extraordinary. This time, the Dark Sage had dropped two pieces of equipment at one go. It was considered a pretty big surprise. Link cast [Supreme Blessing] on these two pieces of equipment without hesitation. Soon, the blessing of the two pieces of equipment waspleted. Their attributes were also disyed before Link. The scroll was suspended in mid-air, radiating a misty brilliance all over. Even the surrounding air was slightly distorted with it. It was a forbidden curse scroll¡ª[Forged?Mirror of Illusion] (Legend-grade). Description: What makes people fearful is usually just fear itself¡ª¡ªthe wandering pursues illusions. Effect: Using space as mirror surfaces, reflect the enemy units. Able to create reflections withbat ability simr to enemy units to participate in battle. (Greatest number of replicable enemy units: 200) Number of times it can be used: 5/5 Note: When the level of replicated units exceeds that of the user, the reflections¡¯ capabilities will drop or even result in replication failure. ... The other item was a little mirror that radiated a strong purple glow. [Mirror of Reflection] Grade: Epic Introduction: When you stare at the reflection, the reflection is also staring at you. Additional skill 1: [Reflection] (Passive Skill): User summons a reflection to participate in battle (summoned reflection has 50% of the original owner¡¯s attributes). Duration: one minute. Cooldown: One hour. ... Tsk tsk! Both the forbidden curse scroll¡ª[Forged?Mirror of Illusion]¡ªand the unique piece of equipment, [Mirror of Reflection], were extremely powerful items. Possessing [Forged?Mirror of Illusion] was equivalent to owning another group attack skill¡ªit had the ability to turn the tables! If he were to encounter arge number of enemies next time, he could totally make them fight their own reflections. He could also use the reflections as an army that suddenly appeared from nowhere. The [Mirror of Reflection] was pretty good too. If Link and the reflection were to use [Death Judgment] at the same time, [Death Judgment]¡¯s original 10% probability of causing instant death would be doubled, not to mention the utilization of some other skills! If Link suddenly summoned a reflection of himself in the middle of battle, it would certainly catch the enemy off-guard. Double the joy, double the surprise! Link¡¯s gains from this siege were considerable. He had also advanced from Stage Four, Level 3 to Stage Four, Level 6. More importantly, the [Doomsday Online] yers who guarded Unfallen City also received a massive boost through this battle¡¯s tests. It wasn¡¯t just an increase in level and equipment; it also improved the people¡¯s unity and caused a surge in morale. Moreover, many elites sprung up during the battle, performing outstandingly and fighting bravely. Link nned on nurturing these talents after examining their dispositions. With the [City of the Undead]¡¯s dungeons, Link could let the elites under hismand receive the highest improvement speed so as to cope with the subsequent Zerg swarm. The Undead army¡¯s siege was like a huge training experience. If one could get through it, they would receive a massive boost in EXP, equipment, and more. If one was unable to do so, they could only turn into withered bones. The apocalyptic world was dangerous, but it had its ownws¡ªonly the strong stand. Just as Link¡¯s thoughts were spinning, Fatty Lu Da suddenly brought a young man covered in blood over. The young man¡¯s head and face were filthy with dust and grime. ¡°Link, this is a member of the No Retreat Army. They want to request reinforcements from us!¡± ¡°No Retreat Army.¡± Link nodded and looked at the youth. ¡°City Master Link, I am Liu Hao of the No Retreat Army. The No Retreat Army is currently at death¡¯s door; we hope you can quickly send people to support us!¡± As the youth spoke, his eyes were full of the luster of hope. Some time ago, the No Retreat Army¡¯s people had contacted Unfallen City. They hoped to form an alliance and fend off the Undead creatures together. When Liu Hao came forward, he originally didn¡¯t carry too much hope. He merely had the thought of making a Hail Mary effort. After all, all the human cities and gathering grounds presently suffered the Undead army¡¯s attacks. He assumed that Unfallen City¡¯s situation wouldn¡¯t be too good either. But when he saw how the battle at Unfallen City was actually drawing to an end already and how the [Doomsday Online] yers were practically winning against the Undead creatures by andslide, Liu Hao was extremely shocked. Hope instantly arose in his heart once again! If we can get Unfallen City¡¯s aid, perhaps everybody can be saved! Liu Hao thought silently. Link¡¯s rtionship with the No Retreat Army in his previous life was pretty good too. He was willing to lend a helping hand to them as long as it was within his power. Link did not reject the request, but he found it slightly odd. ording to reason, Link was the only person who established a city¡ªUnfallen City¡ªwithin Dragon City¡¯s proximity. Although the No Retreat Army had their own base, it was only a gathering point; it wasn¡¯t considered a city. As a city recognized by the universe, Unfallen City would suffer the Undead creatures¡¯ main offense. The pressure that the other areas in Dragon City received ought to be rtively less. ¡°What the No Retreat Army has met probably aren¡¯t just Undead creatures, right?¡± Link asked coolly. Liu Hao nodded hard as if he had recalled something terrifying. His body trembled slightly, and tears faintly emerged in his eyes. ¡°City Master Link has guessed correctly. If it was just Undead, my No Retreat Army would still be able to hold on. But just as my No Retreat Army was battling the Undead army, chaos suddenly broke out at the rear. A group of terrifying monsters appeared, and they ughtered [Doomsday Online] yers¡ªas well as elderly, women, and children!¡± Chapter 115: Spiders! Bloodseeker Attacks!

Chapter 115: Spiders! Bloodseeker Attacks!

¡°Monsters?¡± Lu Da wore a confused look. It was already the tenth day of the apocalyptic world. Skeletons and Undead running wild in the world was no novel thing. What other ¡®monsters¡¯ could make a person have such a huge reaction? Liu Hao¡¯s face was dreadfully pale; all the color had left his face. ¡°Yes, they¡¯re monsters, monsters brought by the ck Dragon Gang. They are spiders... Many... spiders!¡± Liu Hao shouted fearfully. His body trembled, and he started vomiting uncontrobly. A light-green liquid gushed out of his mouth. It was unknown whether it was bile or something else. There even seemed to be living things¡ªwhich were densely packed together like a cluster of eggs¡ªstruggling on the ground. Lu Da felt uneasy for some reason and asked, ¡°Brother, are you okay? Do you want to let the Priest give you treatment?¡± Who would¡¯ve thought that Liu Hao would suddenly push Lu Da aside and stomp on the floundering egg clusters like he had gone mad while screaming? ¡°Kill me! Quickly kill me! It¡¯s these... It¡¯s these damn things that ruined everything! To think... I¡¯ve been infected too! Quickly, kill me! I don¡¯t want to be a monster!¡± A speck of surprise shed across everyone¡¯s face. They werepletely at a loss of what to do with the scene before them. Link¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly. ¡°Step back.¡± Lu Da, Yang Xuerou, and the others all moved away. Right during these few breaths of time¡ªwhen everyone was caught unaware¡ªLiu Hao started vomiting violently. His body convulsed as if he was going to puke out his organs! Liu Hao bowed his head with his body hunched, and his limbs twisted into deformed postures. Many blisters swelled up on the surface of his skin. A terrifying cry sounded from Liu Hao¡¯s abdomen. Like the cold winds of hell, it scraped past everyone¡¯s ears. Liu Hao¡¯s expression was of extreme pain, and his face contorted. Both of his hands scratched at his head and skin, leaving behind ring and bloody streaks. His skin and flesh were turned out. ¡°Quick! It¡¯s toote! Kill me!¡± p! The lumps broke. As minced flesh spattered, a spear-shaped limb covered in dense ck hair wormed out of Liu Hao¡¯s back! The present Liu Hao was like a ghost that had crawled out of hell; he had lost his human form. Such a strange sight made everyone feel suffocated. A chill quietly crawled up their spines! ¡°...¡± Many people drew in a cold breath, unable to utter a single word at all. At this moment, a wind howl abruptly sounded¡ªit was like the roars of dragons and tigers! Silver-colored sword energy appeared instantly and directly ripped apart Liu Hao¡¯s abdomen, causing blood clots to stter! Liu Hao¡ªwho was struggling violently¡ªpaused in his actions and gradually dropped to his knees. There wasn¡¯t the slightest resentment on his face. Instead, a hint of relief shed across it. ¡°Thank you... Thank you, City Master Link... You must save No Retreat Army! You people... are ourst hope!¡± Liu Hao exerted his everything to cough up the final sentence. His face stuck to the ground. His eyes had lost their radiance and were wide open; he couldn¡¯t die in peace. Crimson-red blood with crushed organs flowed out from the corner of his mouth. There were even fleshy bits covered in ck hair amongst them. It was extremely strange and set off chills in one¡¯s heart! ¡°Yuna, purify his body. Purify all of us as well,¡±manded Link in a low voice, his countenance slightly cold. He was the one who used his fingers as a sword just now, releasing a stream of [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique] sword energy to end Liu Hao¡¯s suffering. Having been a human for two lifetimes, Link knew very well that Liu Hao had probably been parasitized by something. Such a strange aberration reminded him of the Dark Sage. He subconsciously touched the [Mask of the Faceless] in his pocket. Is the ck Dragon Gang rted to the God of Evil... thought Link silently. A holy glow lit up¡ªthe six-winged angel, Yuna, had cast [Holy Light Purification]. The golden halo of light moved like a ripple, spreading outward and sweeping across everyone. Liu Hao¡¯s deformed corpse on the ground was burned into ashes by the golden holy mes. Lu Da and the others also felt their minds refresh as if their souls had been cleansed. ¡°Brother Link, the No Retreat Army has probably encountered some kind of great terror! Are we going to rescue them?¡± Lu Da asked. After witnessing the earlier scene, his countenance still carried a few hints of paleness. Expressionless, Link nodded slightly. ¡°We are. The battle is nearing the end, and you people are responsible for cleaning up the battleground. I will make a trip to No Retreat Army¡¯s base.¡± There was something odd about the monsters that No Retreat Army encountered, and they had something to do with the ck Dragon Gang. How could Link¡ªwho had a deep grudge with the ck Dragon Gang¡ªnot go? Even though he did not share a lot inmon, he absolutely wouldn¡¯t allow the ck Dragon Gang to continue existing. Luo Xingyao suddenly dered, ¡°Lord, it¡¯s too dangerous to head there alone. I am willing to follow Lord!¡± Yang Xuerou and some other elites also expressed that they wanted to apany Link. But Link did not want to bring too many people. Ultimately, he only took two elites¡ªLuo Xingyao and Qiao Ruowei¡ªand swiftly rushed to No Retreat Army¡¯s base. ... Presently, in the shadows of the city. The mass of Blood Fiend Gang members¡ªwho hadid low for a long time¡ªalso began to stir. ¡°Master, Link and the others have defeated the Undead army with unknown methods. They are now cleaning up the battlefield. In addition, anomalies have arisen within No Retreat Army¡¯s base. Link has gone over to support them with some of his subordinates. However, the cultivation furnace that you have picked out, Yang Xuerou, should still be in the city,¡± reported a member wearing a crimson-red cloak. Bloodseeker¡¯s countenance instantly changed, and great surprise shed through his eyes. ¡°What!? Link defeated the Undead army? There is a Stage Six abyss monster among them! How could he have done it!?¡± Bloodseeker¡¯s tone was filled with astonishment. He also couldn¡¯t help muttering to himself, ¡°Could it be that Link, this fellow, has a trump card that isn¡¯t weaker than a Stage Six monster?¡± ¡°I also do not know how Link could fend off a Stage Six monster, but the situation is indeed so.¡± A few droplets of cold sweat appeared on the forehead of the Blood Fiend Gang member who came to report the information. He could only respond once more in a low voice. The crowd of Blood Fiend Gang members who heard the news also underwent violent changes in countenance. The Stage Six monster¡ªan absolute nightmare to humans at the present stage¡ªwas defeated? Who could ept this news? Everyone only calmed down a long whileter. A Blood Fiend Gang member said, ¡°How is a Stage Six abyss creature something that can be defeated so easily? Link andpany must have paid a significant price!¡± ¡°Yes, it must be that both sides sustained great losses!¡± Voices of agreement sounded very quickly. ¡°The current Unfallen City must be extremely hollow. They definitely won¡¯t be able to resist our attack!¡± ¡°Gang Leader, are we going to act now?¡± ¡°Will we attack Unfallen City or stop the team going to No Retreat Army¡¯s rescue?¡± ¡°Haha, we are finally going to taste warm, fresh blood after waiting for so long!¡± Bloodseeker pondered for a moment, murmuring words like ¡®ck Dragon Gang,¡±Link,¡¯ and more. A hint of wariness shed through his eyes. Bloodseeker had sought refuge with a certain abyss existence and gained a firm foothold in the apocalypse¡¯s early stages by using bloody methods. Thus, he had a certain understanding of the ck Dragon Gang. They definitely weren¡¯t a simple existence... Bloodseeker¡¯s eyes narrowed. He said decisively, ¡°We will attack Unfallen City. We¡¯ll let Link and the others¡ªwho have gone to act as reinforcements¡ªbattle it out with the ck Dragon Gang.¡± Bloodseeker was no fool. Although he had no idea how Link won against the Stage Six monster, he could tell that Link certainly still had strength spare from how this person was rushing to rescue the No Retreat Army. Besides, what Bloodseeker truly wanted was still in Unfallen City. Upon thinking of that woman, a hint of heat shed across Bloodseeker¡¯s eyes like surging magma. As for Link... If he could still return, it would be just nice for Bloodseeker to take off his head! Chapter 116: God of Evil鈥檚 Servants! Spiderhumans!

Chapter 116: God of Evil¡¯s Servants! Spiderhumans!

East of Dragon City, No Retreat Army¡¯s base. The sky was starting to light up on the horizon, but thisrge area seemed to have been torn apart into a separate space. The sky here was extremely dark, looking like paper dipped in ck ink. A pressure that caused people to feel depressed and restless rippled in the air faintly! Constant screams and a certain type of insect¡¯s shouts also resounded through the darkened streets, rendering it like a ghost domain. Unfallen City had interacted with No Retreat Army before, so both sides knew the location of each other¡¯s base. Additionally, Link had also fought together with the No Retreat Army in his previous life. He led Luo Xingyao and Qiao Ruowei to this area very quickly. But they saw an extremely tragic scene when they had only just reached the ce. They could see huge cocoons and dense cobwebs everywhere on the streets. Five men and women were chased by three monsters that had human bodies but twisted and terrifying heads. These monsters had six eyes on their heads¡ªwhich glowed with a faint light¡ªand their wide-open mouths were full of fangs. What¡¯s more, eight long limbs had grown out from the side of the human bodies, causing them to be very fast. A sound of something cutting through the wind could be heard, and a woman¡¯s head was directly pierced by the monster¡¯s spear-like limb and burst open. The monster¡ªwhich was somewhat simr to a spider¡ªretracted its limb, licked the brain matter that remained on it, and uttered hissing and hoarse words. ¡°Delicious... food. I want more food!¡± At the same time, another man¡¯s chest was also pierced through by a monster climbing a building! The monster slowly dragged the man¡ªwhose blood was flowing out of his mouth¡ªcloser. Its huge mouth then opened like petals, and it directly bit off the man¡¯s head. After that, the monster pierced the man¡¯s stomach with the sharp bulge that grew from its tail. The man¡¯s stomach quickly swelled and gave off a green shimmer. It seemed like spider eggs were being injected into the man¡¯s stomach. Arge number of sticky cobwebs flew out from the monster¡¯s mouth, quickly wrapping the man¡¯s body into a giant cocoon. The monster then stuck the giant cocoon to the surface of a building. The remaining humans¡ªtwo men and one woman¡ªwere scared out of their wits by such a sight. Another simr monster had also blocked off the path in front of them. Six pairs of terrifying eyes¡ªall glowing with a dim light¡ªstared at them intensely! The monster¡¯s sharp limbs stabbed at the remaining three humans fiercely! The three humans¡¯ legs went soft, and they almost fell to the ground, their faces filled with despair! ¡°No!¡± ¡°Ah! I don¡¯t want to die!¡± ... Upon seeing this, Link, Luo Xingyao, and Qiao Ruowei didn¡¯t have time to hesitate and think. They instantly reacted. Golden sword energy suddenly cut through the air, illuminating the street! Luo Xingyao also raised her bow and arrow. As she raised her slender hand slightly, several arrows whizzed toward the monster with a sharp sound of wind being cut through! Boom! Most of the monster¡¯s body and the few limbs¡ªwhich were extending toward their targets¡ªwere directly pulverized by the golden sword energy. The monster fell to the ground as green liquid gushed out from the broken body. There were many squirming lumps within the green pool of liquid. These squirming lumps were small spiders crawling in all directions. The several arrows shot by Luo Xingyao also turned into streams of light that struck another monster¡¯s ck-haired body, creating several pits in its body. The remaining two monsters screamed and gave up on the three humans in front of them. They turned around and pounced at Link and his group! At the same time, a piece of information entered Link andpany¡¯s minds. [Spiderhuman] Race: Lower Servant Level: Stage Three, Level 6 Introduction: Servant of the spider god, As Nakya. They are brutal and cold-blooded and will cause spiritual pollution to people with weak mentalities. They can also induce madness and degeneration. ... The monsters¡¯ horrible neighs filled their ears, full of distortion and corruption. After seeing these distorted monsters up close, Luo Xingyao and Qiao Ruowei¡¯s bodies both felt ufortable. It was as if their internal organs were also going to distort. Link¡¯s countenance was still indifferent, and he contacted Yuna with his thoughts. In the air, Yuna waved her staff quickly. Apanied by a soft shout, a holy halo of light suddenly bloomed in this ce! ¡°Light, drive away the evil in front of you!¡± The golden light was vast and dazzling like a golden ocean as it swept toward the two Spiderhumans. Both monsters burned with golden holy mes, screamed tragically, and were quickly burned to ashes. [Ding! Congrattions on killing the God of Evil¡¯s Stage Three servant. Obtained 50,000 EXP!] [Ding! Congrattions on killing the God of Evil¡¯s Stage Three servant. Obtained 50,000 EXP!] ... Apanied by the notification sounds in their ears, Link and his subordinates walked to the three humans¡¯ vicinity. The three humans consisted of a middle-aged man, a middle-aged woman, and a young man. The pair of middle-aged humans supported each other, their expressions slightly sluggish. They obviously hadn¡¯t recovered from the fear that they had just received. After calming down a bit, the two of them let out a sigh of relief. Their faces were full of the joy of escaping an ordeal. ¡°Thank you! Thank you all!¡± The remaining young man seemed to be insane. Seeing Link and the two girls approaching, he crawled backward with his hands and feet as if he saw a nightmare approaching. The man covered his head with his hands, his body trembling unceasingly. ¡°Don¡¯te here... Stay away! I don¡¯t want to die! Don¡¯t eat me!¡± ... Link noticed something was wrong and immediately ordered, ¡°Yuna, purify them.¡± ¡°Yes, Master.¡± Yuna did not hesitate. She instantly waved her staff, and golden light streamed out. Upon being touched by the holy light, the young man actually burned with holy mes. His face distorted to an extreme extent as he shouted in pain. His mouth opened like petals, and many small, green spiders suddenly spurted out like a dense swarm of locusts! But under the holy light, these spiders were burned to ashes before they even touched Link and the others! Luo Xingyao and Qiao Ruowei felt chills in their hearts when they saw this scene. ¡°He has been parasitized, and his body has undergone an irreversible change. Even the holy light¡¯s purifying effects can¡¯t restore him to him normal,¡± stated Yuna solemnly. Link nodded slightly and then asked the middle-aged couple, who were supporting each other, about the No Retreat Army¡¯s situation. The middle-aged couple was very grateful to hear that Link¡¯s group was here to rescue them. The two hurriedly said, ¡°This ce is close to falling to the monsterspletely. Earlier, Chief Zhao was still leading the team to fight the monsters and covering everyone so that they could evacuate.¡± Under the middle-aged couple¡¯s guidance, Link¡¯s group approached the remnants of the No Retreat Army. The scene here was even more tragic than the earlier one! The original defense lines and barriers¡ªbuilt with various materials¡ªhad been broken by the Undead army. The Undead creatures with gleaming green light in their eyes stepped through the breach in the city wall and trampled on human corpses and blood, brandishing their ws and weapons! The ground was full of limb stumps and pieces of meat. There were also [Doomsday Online] yers¡ªwhose limbs were severed but had yet to die¡ªshouting in pain in the ruins. A man, who lost his lower body, was still hugging on to an Evil Bone Beast¡¯s huge foot even to his death. Several meters of his bloody intestines had been dragged out of his body. Behind them, spider-like monsters covered in ck hair were waving about their spear-like limbs. A cold light shed, and some people had their heads cut off, while some people¡¯s chests were pierced through. These spider monsters then devoured the humans¡¯ flesh and blood with their huge mouthparts, or injected their tail bulges into the corpses,id eggs in them, and wrapped them in spider silk! The sight was too tragic to view! Chapter 117: The Path of Heaven Propers! the Human Race Shall Be Eternal!

Chapter 117: The Path of Heaven Propers! the Human Race Shall Be Eternal!

This ce seemed to have turned into a bloody meat grinder. In a gap between the Undead creatures and the aberrated spider monsters, a team of 100 or so people was still resisting the monsters stubbornly. These [Doomsday Online] yers¡¯ auras weren¡¯t weak. The vast majority of them were Stage Three powerhouses, and the few people in the lead had even reached Stage Four. Of course, the weak wouldn¡¯t be able to stay standing until now in this situation. But at this moment, this team was clearly on the verge of copse. Most of the people were injured, and monsters surrounded them. The Spiderhumans¡¯ neighs and the Undead creatures¡¯ roars resounded in everyone¡¯s ears. Under such circumstances, faint despair appeared on almost everyone¡¯s faces. Some cried in pain, and some angrily cursed. ¡°There are monsters all around. We are surrounded by them!¡± ¡°Damn the ck Dragon Gang!¡± ... ¡°Chief Zhao, Brother Rong is about to pass away!¡± a young man anxiously shouted with a faint cry in his words. Zhao Yongkang¡ªthe No Retreat Army¡¯s leader, who was fighting with the monsters¡ªsuddenly gritted his teeth and cut apart the body of a Stage Three Undead with a single swing of the de. He ignored the sweat dripping from his forehead and hurriedly came forward to check Zhou Rong¡¯s injuries. Zhao Yongkang and Zhou Rong wererades-in-arms, and both were retired soldiers of the old world. When the apocalypse descended, they fought through life and death together several times against the Undead monsters. They also made a promise to wipe out all of the Undead monsters and rebuild the human homnd together. Zhao Yongkang naturally didn¡¯t wish for this brother of his to die. Zhou Rong was currently lying in a young man¡¯s arms and receiving treatment. He had a square and firm-looking face, but his face was green at this moment, and his breath was weak. There was a terrible wound on his chest that cut apart his ribs, revealing his internal organs. The flesh and blood around the wound had also turned ck. The blood flowing out had a tinge of green in it¡ªvery obvious that he had also suffered some unknown infection! The young man¡¯s hands were shining with bright white light filled with vitality, but it wasn¡¯t able to stop Zhou Rong¡¯s life from flowing away. Zhao Yongkang grabbed Zhou Rong¡¯srge palm and said solemnly, ¡°You must persevere! Little Wang will save you!¡± Zhou Rong pursed his pale lips and spoke with difficulty. ¡°Don¡¯t waste your energy. I know I¡¯m going to die soon. Those spider monsters inflicted this wound, and it will cause an aberrated change in my body... When I can¡¯t hold on anymore, you must kill me immediately. I don¡¯t want to be one of those monsters that are neither human nor ghost!¡± ¡°Stop talking.¡± Zhao Yongkang¡¯s eyes were red as he said, ¡°Save your energy; you will definitely survive. Didn¡¯t we agree that we will wipe out these monsters together?¡± Sorrow shed in Zhou Rong¡¯s eyes. ¡°I¡¯m afraid I won¡¯t see that day... but the path of heaven will prosper, and the human race shall be eternal. These monsters... They won¡¯t overpower us for too long.¡± ¡°Yongkang, it doesn¡¯t matter if I die. The most important thing is the safety of the elderly, children, and the majority of themon people. Have they all evacuated?¡± Even when he was on the verge of death, Zhou Rong was still most concerned about the safety of the weak. This man had engraved the need to protect the weak in his soul. Zhao Yongkang said solemnly, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I have sent Luo Haoyue and some old brothers to evacuate the people. For every extra second that we hold these monsters here, they will have more hope of leaving this ce and surviving in this apocalypse!¡± ¡°Okay... that¡¯s good.¡± Zhou Rong exhaled. His expressionpletely rxed as if he had no regrets left. But as his spirit ckened, the tiredness from the battle and the pain and weakness caused by his serious injuries surged up. As his spiritual defense was defeated, pollution and degeneration in his body broke out in an instant! ¡°Huff huff!¡± Wild and heavy beast-like pants sounded, and a lot of squirming lumps appeared all over Zhou Rong¡¯s body! With a pained expression on his face, Zhou Rong broke free from the No Retreat Army¡¯s Priest and yelled with difficulty, ¡°Quick... kill me!¡± Zhao Yongkang, the No Retreat Army¡¯s leader, gritted his teeth so hard that he almost broke them. However, he still raised the sword in his hand. ¡°Old Zhou, go well!¡± The words fell, and the light of the de shed past. Most of Zhou Rong¡¯s body¡ªwhich was undergoing an aberrated change¡ªwas cut into minced meat. He thennded on the ground heavily,pletely dead. The surrounding soldiers all went silent at this moment. Zhao Yongkang resolutely turned around with red eyes. He faced the rushing Undead and the aberrated Spiderhumans with a sad expression, and his eyes were filled with endless anger. Scenes of his memories with Zhou Rong shed in his mind. At the beginning of the apocalypse, the two hugged each other for warmth, struggling to survive. After awakening their profession and leveling up, they gathered the people, established an army, and vowed to protect their homnd. Zhou Rong¡¯s rough man words seemed to linger in his ears: ¡°The moment we wear the military uniform, it¡¯s a lifetime thing. Retired soldiers are also soldiers!¡± ¡°Protect our homnd; kill all those undead sons of b*tches! Prioritize the evacuation of low-leveled people and children, who have no ability to protect themselves. They are the seed of fire for humankind!¡± ... ¡°Is this what the apocalyptic world is like?¡± Zhao Yongkang angrily roared in his heart as he red at the monsters that were ocean-like in numbers. He raised the de in his hand high and shouted with all of his might, ¡°Those who still have strength, charge with me! The longer we persevere, the more hope for those evacuating!¡± ¡°We shall fight to the death in exchange for the eternality of humanity!¡± All of the No Retreat Army¡¯s soldiers were moved, and all of them clenched the weapons in their hands tightly, shouting non-stop. ¡°Fight to the death!¡± ¡°Fight to the death!¡± ¡°No Retreat Army¡ªrather die than retreat!¡± ... Amidst the shouting, Zhao Yongkang led the 100-plus No Retreat Army soldiers and charged into the monsters. At this moment, Link¡¯s group¡ªwhich had just arrived¡ªhappened to hear those heroic and sonorous shouts as well! Link¡¯s heart trembled. How simr this scene was to the one in his previous life. In the previous life, it was also Zhao Yongkang¡ªthe leader of No Retreat Army¡ªwho led a group of elite soldiers to fight to the death instead of retreating. This gave the opportunity for most of the people to escape to the wilderness. After living a second life, Link naturally wouldn¡¯t let this tragedy repeat itself. Hemunicated with Yuna via his thoughts and asked her to use her air superiority to support the No Retreat Army¡¯s remnants as soon as possible. At the same time, Link activated [Holy Charge] without hesitation! The golden light flowed out from the [King¡¯s Sword], making Link shine like a god! Like a golden sword, Link fiercely charged at the sea of monsters in front of him. Along the way, the Undead creatures and the aberrated Spiderhumans were all crushed by the wildly dancing sword energy! Qiao Ruowei and Luo Xingyao followed Link closely, killing the monsters with their arrows and cold dagger! In the monsters¡¯ encirclement, Zhao Yongkang panted heavily. He had almost exhausted his stamina, but the monsters in front of him were still like a vast ocean¡ªthere was no end in sight. Unwillingness surged in his heart. At this moment, a golden energy ball of holy light crashed down like a meteor falling from the sky! Arge group of monsters was incinerated by the holy light! This scene caused everyone in the No Retreat Army to be dazed for a while, their faces full of surprise! They looked up at the Seraphim in the sky. The holy halo emitting from Yuna¡¯s body and her perfect beauty caused many people¡¯s eyes to be slightly dazed. Thoughts of worship even appeared in their minds. ¡°Is this an angel?¡± ¡°Have angelse to protect us?¡± But someone soon recognized Yuna and said, ¡°This should be the summoned creature of Unfallen City¡¯s City Master Link. They have probablye to help!¡± ¡°We have reinforcements?!¡± The No Retreat Army soldiers¡¯ spirits instantly shook! Chapter 118: Olive Branch! Mirror Image!

Chapter 118: Olive Branch! Mirror Image!

At this moment, Zhao Yongkang became slightly out of sorts. He knew that the City Master of Unfallen City, Link, had three extremely strong summoned creatures. Link¡¯s previous battle achievement of strongly suppressing Thunder Pce, World Society, and other gangs had quickly spread throughout Dragon City. But when Zhao Yongkang saw Yuna, he still couldn¡¯t help feeling shocked. This extremely holy and powerful being was actually someone¡¯s summoned creature¡ªthis was really hard for him to imagine! ¡°He has an angel as a follower. What kind of might is this!? How powerful is this City Master Link?¡± Zhao Yongkang sighed, and the will to fight was rekindled in his heart. The reinforcements were already here, so how could he let himself die at this ce? He certainly had to fight hard and live on with Zhou Rong¡¯s share! ¡°Kill!¡± Zhao Yongkang continued to wield the long de in his hand, squeezing every ounce of potential and strength in his body. The de¡¯s light became more and more ming! ... In the Undead army. A figure stood on the head of an Evil Bone Beast that looked like a mountain of bones. It was an Evil General, but its rank didn¡¯t reach Stage Five. It was a Stage Four, Level 9 existence instead. He condescendingly watched the No Retreat Army soldiers¡ªwho were fighting¡ªand Link¡¯s group, which wasing to their rescue, his face full of mockery. ¡°This group of ants really is stubbornly resisting. No matter, I¡¯m tired of ying. Abomination Legion, eat all of them!¡± As the Evil General¡¯s words fell, the ten-plus Abominations¡ªwhich were originally at the Undead army¡¯s rear all rushed forward. The Abominations devoured arge number of human corpses, remnants of human limbs, and the residual limbs of aberrated monsters along the way. This made these ten-plus Abominations¡¯ bodies evenrger and more terrifying. And at the highest point of a building in the distance. Doctor Ghost, ck Dragon, and a few ck Dragon Gang members all saw Link¡¯s group, which came to support the No Retreat Army. ¡°Oh? That kid, Link, actually came? I originally nned to find him afterpleting the n and settle the scores with him, but this kid came to my doorstep himself instead. This is alright too. I shall catch them all in one.¡± Doctor Ghost grinned viciously, a faint light shing in his eyes. ck Dragon had a pale and sickly-looking face. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, drawing out a sinister smile. ¡°I sensed a simrity in his aura. That kid called Link is very interesting...¡± Doctor Ghost¡¯s heart shook slightly. Simrity? Could it be that Link is also able tomunicate with an indescribable existence? Doctor Ghost felt a faint sense of uneasiness in his heart and said: ¡°n Leader, we have almost finished collecting the data. Ordinary individuals can¡¯t bear the Master¡¯s power. Distortion signifies madness, and even if they have aberrated and transformed, theirbat power still can¡¯t meet our requirements.¡± ¡°The candidate most suitable for being transformed into an aberrated weapon has been found. It¡¯s better if we start the transformation as soon as possible. Let¡¯s just leave the Spiderhuman Priest to finish the things here.¡± Hearing these words, ck Dragon nodded slightly, and the smile on his face became frightening. The reason he and Doctor Ghost chose No Retreat Army as their target first¡ªexcept to sacrifice arge number of lives to the God of Evil, who wove a giant in the fantasy dream¡ªwas to find a suitable individual to carry the God of Evil¡¯s reward and power. They wanted to create a controble and powerful aberrated weapon. After all, the God of Evil¡¯s power was full of madness and depravity. Even the current ck Dragon also couldn¡¯t fully ept the God of Evil¡¯s power. He might even fall intoplete madness if he tried to do so. It was just like how those humans¡ªwhich were contaminated and aberrated by the Spiderhumans¡ªsimply couldn¡¯t bear it. And now, Doctor Ghost had already collected the data on the distortion of humans when affected by the Spiderhumans¡¯ pollution. Hence, they didn¡¯t need to stay here now. As for Link, even if he could survive the monster army, there would still be the ck Dragon Gang members that had transformed into Spiderhuman Priests. These Spiderhuman Priests were responsible for obliterating the remaining humans. ¡°Start the transformation then. I am really looking forward to it...¡± ck Dragon put on his hood again, turned away, and left the ce with Doctor Ghost. ... In the ocean of monsters, Link felt something in his heart, and he subconsciously looked toward the distant buildings. There was a strong, depraved, and twisted aura over there! But he quickly withdrew his attention, swung the [King¡¯s Sword] in his hand, and burst out with waves of sword energy, slicing the Undead creatures and Spiderhumans before him into powder! With the addition of Link¡¯s group and Yuna¡¯s restraint effects on Undead creatures and Spiderhumans, the pressure the No Retreat Army faced was instantly reduced greatly. They now had a chance to catch a breath. ¡°Thank you, City Master Link, for putting yourself in danger to help us. The No Retreat Army¡¯s people will definitely remember this deed in our hearts!¡± During a brief moment of respite in the battle, Zhao Yongkang¡ªthe leader of the No Retreat Army¡ªexpressed his gratitude to Link. Link just nodded and calmly stated, ¡°The No Retreat Army is worthy of my help. After dealing with the monsters here, Chief Zhao is wee to bring the No Retreat Army to my Unfallen City.¡± ¡°I know that Chief Zhao wants to drive away the monsters and restore peace to the people. Unfallen City also hopes to build an evesting city in the apocalyptic world and preserve the seed of humanity.¡± Link threw an olive branch[1] to Zhao Yongkang, or rather, to the entire No Retreat Army. After all, Unfallen City would be one of the human home cities after today. When order descended, the territory belonging to Unfallen City would expand. No overly powerful monsters would appear nearby, bing suitable for human habitation and development. This also meant that Unfallen City¡ªwhich was close to saturation¡ªcould absorb more people into its poption and enter a stage of rapid development. In the apocalypse, human life was like grass. But the most indispensable things for development and prosperity were also human lives and arge poption. Naturally, it would be best if a force like No Retreat Army could join Unfallen City at this time. In addition, Link had contact with the No Retreat Army in his previous life. Thus, he knew that some of them had extraordinary professions and potential. For example, Zhao Yongkang¡ªthe leader of No Retreat Army¡ªwas a Diamond-grade [Shadow de Hero]. If he was properly nurtured, he would definitely be a great help in the future. Zhao Yongkang pondered for a while when he heard this, but he did not immediately reply. ¡°I need to consider this matter and ask my brothers-in-arms for their opinions before making a decision.¡± Link just nodded slightly. He wasn¡¯t in a hurry. Unfallen City would be one of the few human home cities, and since it possessed the City of the Undead, Unfallen City had great growth potential. He believed that Zhao Yongkang would make the right choice in the end. As the two talked, the ten-plus meat mountain-like Abominations were already approaching, emanating a horrible stench! Their huge bodies made the ground and debris shake, stirring up awe in those who witnessed this. The No Retreat Army¡¯s soldiers secretly gritted their teeth and prepared to fight. Link raised his sword-like eyebrows slightly and directly took out a skill scroll¡ªwhich he obtained from killing the Dark Sage not long ago¡ªfrom his arms. Legend-grade Forbidden Curse: [Forged?Mirror of Illusion]! After the scroll was used, a cracking sound could be heard. It was as if a certain restriction was broken! A terrifying and vast aura abruptly broke free from the scroll and swept through the area! The scroll bloomed with extremely bright purple light¡ªmysterious and deep. Space itself was like a water surface, producing circles of ripples. Pieces of space mirrors then appeared, and these mirrors reflected the strongest 200 individuals in the monster army! The mirror images soon stepped out of the mirrors, causing everyone from the No Retreat Army and all of the monsters to be dazed! [1] Represents friendship and cooperation. Chapter 119: [Spiderhuman Priest]! Fresh Troops!

Chapter 119: [Spiderhuman Priest]! Fresh Troops!

¡°What¡¯s this!¡± ¡°Two hundred more monsters?!¡± ¡°These monsters are all summoned by City Master Link? It¡¯s simply incredible!¡± ¡°Such a huge wave of magic power and using space itself as a mirror... This is a forbidden curse, right?! City Master Link can actually release forbidden curse-level spells?¡± The soldiers of No Retreat Army all widened their eyes and eximed. With the 200 mirror images¡¯ appearance, a terrifying aura surged here, making people¡¯s hearts tremble! Among the mirror images were Evil Bone Beasts¡ªwhich were huge and resembled a mountain of bones. There were also stitched monsters¡ªthe Abominations that dragged huge chain axes as their weapons! There were also Undead Archers that held bone bows, and even the Evil General¡ªwhich was a Stage Four, Level 9 existence¡ªhad been copied! The lineup was practically luxurious! Each mirror image burst out with Stage Four or Stage Three peak aura, standing among the Undead creatures and aberrated monsters. Learning from the experience of fighting the Dark Sage, Link only chose to replicate the Undead creatures when he used the Mirror of Illusion Forbidden Curse scroll. He excluded the aberrated monsters. This was to avoid the monsters¡ªreplicated via the mirrors¡ªgetting out of control if they were contaminated by pollution and madness. Since Link¡¯s own attributes far exceeded those of the same stage, the strength of the replicated Stage Three and Stage Four monsters was almost the same as the original. These 200 monsters appeared like heavenly soldiers that descended from the sky! At this moment, even the Evil General sitting atop an Evil Bone Beast¡¯s head couldn¡¯t help but tremble in his heart. His eyes also twitched fiercely! ¡°How can a human being perform such powerful magic?¡± The Evil General roared in its heart, its eyes filled with surprise. The Undead creatures were all stunned too, and their soul fires trembled violently. Even the aberrated monsters¡¯ movements stagnated, having sensed a certain threat! Link naturally wouldn¡¯t be polite with them. With a thought, the mirror images started to attack the monsters. The Abomination Legion mirror image faced off against the Undead Abomination Legion. The Evil General mirror image was continuously killing the aberrated creatures around it. The great attribute gap resulted in almost no monsters being able to endure a single attack from it. With the addition of this new, powerful force, the hearts of the No Retreat Army¡¯s soldiers were excited. They even faintly saw the hope of turning defeat into victory! With brightly shining tiger eyes, Zhao Yongkang¡ªthe leader of the No Retreat Army¡ªlooked at Link¡¯s back, which was as straight as a spear. This young man in front of him was powerful beyond his imagination! Link could even cast such a powerful and terrifying spell that could reverse the flow of war. Who could guess how many powerful trump cards he actually still had? At this moment, Link¡¯s tall and straight figure in that fluttering white robe looked extremely tall in Zhao Yongkang¡¯s eyes. This figure even became a little unfathomable to Zhao Yongkang! In this extremely dangerous apocalypse, if one wanted to gain a foothold and build a stable homnd, they definitely needed to be supported bybat power. It might be a good choice to follow Link and join Unfallen City. Zhao Yongkang¡¯s heart had already faintly made its choice. And this was all in Link¡¯s expectation. If he wanted to attract Zhao Yongkang to join him, he naturally had to show his own bargaining chips appropriately. ¡°Humble human beings actually dare to resist stubbornly! Die!¡± The Undead army¡¯s general, the Evil General, had a face full of anger. He roared and jumped down the Evil Bone Beast before rushing toward the No Retreat Army. A strong aura of death suddenly surged here! Gushing green light seemed to have turned this ce into the kingdom of the dead! The hearts of the humans turned slightly cold. Just the pressure released by the Stage Four, Level 9 Undead creature alone had already made many Stage Three [Doomsday Online] yers feel a sense of suffocation! Fortunately, golden light rippled through the humans here as Yuna waved her staff, quickly dispelling the difort in their bodies. Zhao Yongkang¡¯s expression was cold. With just a cold snort, he strode out and headed forward to face the Evil General directly. Among the aberrated monsters, a path was suddenly created as they separated. A hideous spider with a huge body that was several meters high slowly walked out. It was hard to imagine that human beings would be aberrated into such a shape. The spider was covered with ck hair and had eight sharp, long legs that left many ravines on the ground as the legs dragged across. On the spider¡¯s body was an aberrated human head with six eyes, looking extremely sinister. This caused the hearts of those who saw this to tremble. The spider¡¯s twisted body exuded an aura of corruption and impurity. If one stared at it long enough, even Stage Three [Doomsday Online] yers would also be polluted. Some crazy whispers would then sound in their ears. The rank of this aberrated monster wasn¡¯t low. It had reached Stage Four, Level 8, approaching Stage Five! This was the [Spiderhuman Priest] transformed by the ck Dragon Gang. It had received more power from the Spider God. Hence, it became more powerful and more distorted than the ordinary aberrated Spiderhumans! The Spiderhuman Priest¡¯s six pairs of eyes stared at Link, a faint absorptive light shooting from its eyes. Its fangs protruded from its mouth, causing it to be unable to close its huge mouth. Green viscous liquid also continuously dripped from it. ¡°You are Link, right... Doctor asked me to unscrew your head from your body! Your flesh and blood should be delicious!¡± Link just nced at the Spiderhuman Priest coldly, his expression extremely indifferent. Just this nce alone made the Spiderhuman Priest¡¯s body stiffen abruptly! The Spiderhuman Priest vaguely seemed to see a huge, indescribable figure appear behind Link. Great, crazy, extremely chaotic, and indescribable! The figure only appeared for a moment, like an illusion, but it made the Spiderhuman Priest¡ª who had been rewarded by the Spider God and became one of the God of Evil¡¯s servants¡ªshudder and fearful! Mysteries often sumbed to higher mysteries! Chills, as well as embarrassment for being shocked by Link, appeared in the Spiderhuman Priest¡¯s heart. After all, as a God¡¯s servant, it also wanted face... The Spiderhuman Priest asked in a deep voice, ¡°You also seem to have a distorted aura too. Could it be that you are also a believer of a certain great existence?¡± Link was nonmittal, but sword energy surged all over his body, making him look like an ancient sword fairy descending to this world. His white robe also loudly fluttered in the wind! The [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique] was instantlyunched! Link knew that the distorted aura mentioned by this Spiderhuman Priest probably referred to the [Mask of the Faceless]. After all, it was also an item from an unnamed God of Evil. In terms of status, it would only be higher than this Spiderhuman Priest! The next moment, the surging sword energy swept toward the Spiderhuman Priest like a mighty river! The air exploded as if the world was about to be torn apart! The Spiderhuman Priest¡¯s heart trembled violently. ¡°How can a Stage Four human burst out with such powerful sword energy?¡± It was surprised, and its heart was full of doubts. However, no one answered it; it could only wave its huge feet in a hurry, trying to resist the attack. But Link could even defeat Stage Six monsters now. His attributes far exceeded those of the same stage. Even though the Spiderhuman Priest was more powerful than ordinary Stage Four monsters, it would still die under this sword energy! In an instant, residual limbs flew all about, and a Stage Four, Level 8 aberrated monster turned into pieces of meat that flew everywhere! All the No Retreat Army soldiers who saw this scene all became dazed as if they saw a miracle. Their mouths opened so wide that an egg could be stuffed inside! Chapter 120: Reverse the Flow of Battle! Domain-Type Secret Treasure!

Chapter 120: Reverse the Flow of Battle! Domain-Type Secret Treasure!

¡°Hey! Could it be that City Master Link¡¯s profession is Sword Immortal?¡± ¡°The power of his sword energy is terrifying! Is this really the power that a Stage Four powerhouse can release?¡± ¡°They are both Stage Four, but City Master Link can kill a monster of the same stage so easily! Hisbat power is terrifying!¡± ... Exmations continuously sounded, and the hearts of the No Retreat Army¡¯s soldiers were full of shock. The words ¡®I am shocked¡¯ were practically written on their faces! On the other side, both the Evil General and Zhao Yongkang¡ªwho were fighting each other¡ªwere also unable to keep their calm upon seeing this scene. Zhao Yongkang sucked in a cold breath, feeling that Link was unfathomable even more deeply! Is he still a Summoner? If someone told me that Link¡¯s profession was the [Sword Immortal] hidden profession, I would be willing to believe it. Having a Holy Angel as a summoned creature had already made Link the envy of countless people. Now, even Link¡¯s personal strength is so great too! Is this what it means to ¡®wear other people¡¯s shoes and leave others nowhere to go?¡¯ He is simply not leaving a way for others to survive! The Evil General¡¯s eyes twitched even more. As a general who led an army of tens of thousands of Undead, a human ant actually made him feel terrified. What¡¯s more, the Evil General even thought of retreating in his heart! After killing the Spiderhuman Priest, Link turned his cold eyes toward the Evil General. With Link¡¯s arrival, the situation¡ªwhich was originally extremely desperate for the No Retreat Army¡ªhad been reversed in an instant! ... At the same time, Unfallen City. The battlefield had nearly been cleaned up. The remaining Undead had beenpletely wiped out by the [Doomsday Online] yers, and the equipment and materials that dropped all over the battlefield were also brought back to the city. And just when everyone rxed and wanted to catch a breath. On the distant horizon was another burst of smoke and dust. With the increase in levels, the [Doomsday Online] yers¡¯ attributes had increased. Their vision range was also far beyond that of ordinary people. Hence, they quickly discovered this abnormality. The [Doomsday Online] yer standing guard on the city wall immediately sounded the rm and shouted at the same time. ¡°There is a group of people approaching Unfallen City!¡± Luo Xinghe, Fatty Lu Da, Yang Xuerou, God Devourer Ant, Star Moon, and the other people responsible for staying behind and protecting the city soon gathered on the city wall. Figures in scarlet robes entered their sights! The one in the lead was the hideous-looking Bloodseeker! ¡°We have only just dealt with the monster siege! I am afraid that the Blood Demon Gang came here at this time to take advantage of this and invade us!¡± Luo Xinghe narrowed his eyes slightly and tightly gripped the long de in his hand. He already had a bloody history with Bloodseeker in the first ce. Upon seeing how Bloodseeker now wanted to take their fruits ofbor from them, his chest became full of anger! Yang Xuerou and the others¡¯ faces were also a little gloomy. At this moment, a strong bloody scent continued to spread through the air, digging straight into everyone¡¯s noses. It made them feel like vomiting. And following the arrival of Bloodseeker¡¯s group, a bloody red-color even faintly glowed in the sky itself. It looked as though the sky was dyed red with blood! An aura of horror swept through thend, filled with bloodiness and murderous intent! More than 1,000 people from the Blood Demon Gang had followed Bloodseeker here. What¡¯s more, their auras weren¡¯t weak. Most of them exuded a Stage Three aura, and there were even many Stage Four powerhouses among them! Their leader, Bloodseeker, had reached Stage Four, Level 10. He onlycked the final breakthrough to advance to Stage Five! This was a force that couldn¡¯t be underestimated! The thousand-plus people were staring at Unfallen City. Their eyes were greedy and fierce, looking like a pack of hungry wolves with eyes that shone with a green light. Bloodseeker even directly stared at Yang Xuerou, who was on the city wall. His gaze seemed like he wanted to swallow her alive, causing disgust to arise in those who saw his eyes! Blood energy wafted from a Stage Four Blood Demon Gang member¡¯s body and rose all the way to the sky. The blood energy condensed in the air, turning into a blood-colored skull that was several meters tall in size! The skull¡¯s jaw opened and closed, letting out a hoarse and harsh shout. ¡°The Blood Demon Gang has arrived. Shouldn¡¯t you guys hurry up and open the city gates to wee us into the city? If the gates aren¡¯t open within ten seconds, don¡¯t me the Blood Demon Gang for ughtering the city with bloody means!¡± Upon hearing this, how could the [Doomsday Online] yers in Unfallen City possibly still have a good expression on their faces? However, they had all heard of the Blood Demon Gang¡¯s murderous name and reputation. The Blood Demon Gang was a group of lunatics that was extremely cruel and unscrupulous in order to achieve their goals. Many people still felt fearful of them. After the words fell, the blood-colored skull did not dissipate. It began the countdown instead. ¡°10... 9... 8...¡± ... On the city wall. Luo Xinghe¡¯s eyes were extremely cold, and the green veins on his forehead throbbed wildly. ¡°The Blood Demon Gang is looking for death!¡± He snorted coldly, and killing intent burst out from his body! Yang Xuerou and the others¡¯ eyes were extremely cold too! The [Territory of Thunder]¡ªwhich had already converged and disappeared¡ªsuddenly activated again! It should be known that Link had already made preparations before he left. In order to prevent other forces from taking advantage of his absence, not only did he leave God Devourer Ant and Star Moon behind, but he also left the Legend-grade domain-type secret treasure¡ª[Bead of Thunder Punishment]¡ªin the city. It could be used at any time to deal with unexpected events! As the domain was activated, winds and clouds instantly surged! The sky suddenly became extremely gloomy, dark clouds pressed down upon the city, and silver lightning shed in the clouds! The pulsating electric light formed an extremely vast symbol, covering the entire Unfallen City! The lightning snakes continued to dance in the sky like they were the fury of heaven itself! Everyone in the Blood Demon Gang that was close to Unfallen City was immediately affected by the [Territory of Thunder]. Hostile units that entered the domain would have their movement speed reduced by 40% and their defense reduced by 30%. They also had a probability of being struck by lightning, triggering paralyzing and silencing effects! Electric light shed all over them, and their bodies became stiff. But Bloodseeker had been watching the events ongoing in Unfallen City all along, so he wasn¡¯t surprised by this domain. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, drawing out an amused smile. ¡°Small tricks! The countdown is over; prepare to ept the Blood Demon Gang¡¯s anger!¡± Bloodseeker took out a bloody dagger. The dagger looked as if it were carved from a blood-colored gem, and the handle was a bat with its wings spread out. There seemed to be flowing inside the dagger, looking very strange! As the dagger was taken out, a vast and evil aura instantly spread out! Wails and cries of countless creatures also seemed to resound suddenly! Bloodstains emerged from the feet of Bloodseeker and quickly expanded toward his surroundings! Soon, everyone in the Blood Demon Gang seemed to be standing on a bloody and muddy swamp. Scarlet mud surged through the swamp, and bloody palms stuck out from it as if they wanted to pull people into hell! This was obviously some kind of domain! As the domain spread out, everyone in the Blood Demon Gang was no longer affected by the [Territory of Thunder]. ¡°Domain-type secret treasure!¡± Surprise shed in Xue Linglong¡¯s eyes. It was apparent that she didn¡¯t expect Bloodseeker to have a domain-type secret treasure as well. This was because such secret treasures were extremely rare. But even when Bloodseeker¡¯s domain-type secret treasure appeared, Xue Linglong and the others didn¡¯t be fearful. The current Unfallen City hadn¡¯t suffered too many casualties in the battle with the Undead army. Any force that wanted to snatch away the fruits of theirbor would be left with regret! The closebat elites, such as Luo Xinghe and Xue Linglong, were already prepared to head out of the city to fight the enemy. As for God Devourer Ant¡ªwho was at the side¡ªit turned into a stream of ck light and directly pounced at Bloodseeker! Star Moon also changed into Chimera form. Its dragon-like mouths were wide open; three different types of energies¡ªeach of different attributes¡ªconstantly converged and waspressed into three energy balls! Chapter 121: Iron Plate! Blood-Red Mire!

Chapter 121: Iron te! Blood-Red Mire!

The three different energies¡ªdarkness, me, and corrosion¡ªsoon intertwined and turned into a huge beam of light,sing toward the people from the Blood Demon Gang! Star Moon¡ªwho was in its Chimera form¡ªproudly stood at the top of the city like a terrifyingly powerful mobile turret. An iparably fierce aura swirled around it, seeming like it was powerful enough to destroy the world! Star Moon was the God of Divine Wrath¡¯s twin brother. As it leveled up, the destructive power within its body was gradually revealed! Such a horrifying energy beam was sufficient to destroy mountains. Even Bloodseeker¡¯s eyes couldn¡¯t help but twitch! When the Blood Demon Gang members felt the destructive power, many of their faces turned pale. Some even trembled and had goosebumps pop up all over their skin! Bloodseeker¡¯s face darkened as he waved the [Blood Domain Dagger]. This dagger was a reward from a certain existence in the abyss. It was exceedingly extraordinary. Under Bloodseeker¡¯s hands, a heinous scarlet light instantly bloomed from it. It was as if the world was dyed red! Numerous bloodied hands reached up from the blood-red mire beneath their feet, converging and ovepping with each other. An iparably huge, blood-red hand suddenly appeared. The giant palm emitted an overpowering scent of blood and an aura of fury. It then collided with the energy beam that came crashing down on it! Boom! A terrifying roar¡ªlike thunder and lightning¡ªresounded between heaven and earth! Bloodseeker¡¯s body flew backward, and his hideous face was pale! Even the hand holding the dagger trembled! Bloodseeker was deeply shocked! He hadn¡¯t expected that a mere summoned creature of Link could release such terrifying power¡ªstrong enough to blow him, who was almost Stage Five, off his feet! At this moment, the God Devourer Ant arrived! A violent sonic boom could be heard in the air! Under a Stage Three Blood Demon Gang member¡¯s terrified gaze, God Devourer Ant¡¯s ck forelimbs swung out like a human¡¯s! This gang member¡ªwho was rather powerful himself¡ªcouldn¡¯t even put up the slightest resistance and was then directly blown to pieces! Limbs and flesh were scattered all over the ground. God Devourer Ant did not stop. It turned to attack another person instead! Boom! Another Blood Demon Gang member was trashed by the God Devourer Ant. Given its might, nobody could stop it at all! A savage aura radiated around the God Devourer Ant, just like an ancient savage and ferocious beast that arrived at this era. It smashed enemies with a wave of its forelimbs, going on a killing spree! This scene caused the Blood Demon Gang members¡¯ expressions to stiffen. Chills fiercely ran up from the soles of their feet, almost freezing their souls! ¡°This is Link¡¯s summoned creature? How can this monster be so powerful?!¡± ¡°It crushed a Stage Three powerhouse with just one attack. How is this possible?!¡± ¡°They¡¯ve just fought an army of Undead. Shouldn¡¯t Unfallen City¡¯sbat forces be greatly undermined?¡± ... Many of the Blood Demon Gang members looked like they fell into an ice cave. Their earlier expressions of greed and viciousness were gone and had turned into expressions of fear and trepidation. A Stage Four Blood Demon Gang powerhouse had a cold glint in his eyes, and he was filled with murderous intent! He was not going to let this fierce summoned creature kill any more of his people. If this continued, it would seriously bring down the Blood Demon Gang¡¯s morale. He sternly shouted at the God Devourer Ant, ¡°Beast, how dare you behave so recklessly in front of the Blood Demon Gang? Are you courting death!?¡± He swung a staff iid with skulls rapidly. This Blood Demon Gang powerhouse was filled with raging fury! Sticky blood gushed out from the blood-red mire to form a blood-stained axe. This axe ruthlessly shed at God Devourer Ant with a terrifying might! Theplex and mysterious blue-purple lines around God Devourer Ant¡¯s body¡ªwhich seemed to be filled with the purest truth between heaven and earth¡ªsuddenly became dazzling as they bloomed brilliantly! Instead of retreating, God Devourer Ant dashed toward the blood axe! Kra kra kra! A sound that made one¡¯s teeth tingle was heard! The blood-stained axe shattered inch by inch. It simply could not resist the God Devourer Ant¡¯s might! A dark ray of light then shed past, and God Devourer Ant delivered a brazen blow. The air exploded as if space was wailing! The head of the Blood Demon Gang¡¯s Stage Four powerhouse instantly exploded like a ripe watermelon. Yellow-white brain matter was scattered in all directions! The group of Blood Demon Gang members drew in a cold breath at the same time as fear and horror filled their eyes! Good heavens! Even a Stage Four powerhouse couldn¡¯t fight this ferocious beast and was blown to pieces with one blow! Who wouldn¡¯t be frightened upon facing this situation? They originally wanted to take advantage of the fact that Unfallen City¡¯s forces would be greatly undermined after fighting the Undead army to destroy and take over Unfallen City. Who would¡¯ve thought that they would run into an iron te?! The City Master, Link, had gone to rescue the No Retreat Army. Who would¡¯ve expected there to be such a horrible existence in the city?! It simply did not make sense for a summoned creature to fight them till their hearts trembled! A deep sense of apprehension shed across Bloodseeker¡¯s eyes! He had previously used his blood shadow clone to observe the battle between Unfallen City and the Undead army. Hence, he knew that Link had several extraordinary summoned creatures. Only when he faced them did he realize that these summoned creatures were exceptionally powerful! Link¡¯s summoned creatures clearly emitted Stage Four auras, but their strength wasparable to a Stage Five! Moreover, Xue Linglong, Luo Xinghe, and the others had just led a group of elite yers into battle! As the number of dead and wounded kept increasing, the Blood Demon Gang could only struggle to hold on with the blood-red mire beneath their feet! Even Bloodseeker had cold feet. He regretted getting himself involved in such a messy situation! Luo Xinghe charged into battle with murderous intent. He swung the longsword,unching a zing sword ray that shed toward Bloodseeker! ¡°Bloodseeker, today will be the day you die!¡± Bloodseeker waved his dagger as he received this powerful and overwhelming blow. He was deeply shocked. Luo Xinghe¡ªwhom he had looked down on in the past¡ªhad been promoted to Stage Four and had amazing battle power! God Devourer Ant also imparted a blow. The horrifying might tore Bloodseeker¡¯s robe into pieces, and it blew up his left shoulder like cotton wool! If Bloodseeker hadn¡¯t avoided it in time, his head would¡¯ve exploded! Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, and he looked terrible. But in the next moment, Bloodseeker covered his face and let out iparably manicughter! ¡°You forced me to do this! I must destroy this Unfallen City today!¡± His gaze was grim, and a scary wave emanated from around him! Luo Xinghe was taken aback. He could feel the blood in his body going out of control as if it were about to rush out of his body! The blood-red mire that the Blood Demon Gang was standing on started to change as well! The bloodied hands reached out to the [Doomsday Online] yers in Unfallen City and grabbed their ankles in an attempt to drag them into the mire! ¡°Something is not right; withdraw!¡± Xue Linglong and the others were instantly alerted and withdrew from the blood-red mire. But the Blood Demon Gang members were not as lucky. They were standing in the middle of the domain and had nowhere to run to. People continued to get swallowed into the mire. Howls and wails sounded like the sea waves! Bloodseeker¡¯s face revealed a twisted smile. As the blood-red mire continued to devour the Blood Demon Gang members, his aura became stronger. It was as though he was about to reach Stage Five! Chapter 122: Demon Slaying! Altar of the Evil Divinity!

Chapter 122: Demon ying! Altar of the Evil Divinity!

¡°Bloodseeker¡¯s aura is getting stronger. He is devouring the energy and blood of those people to strengthen himself!¡± said Xue Linglong with a cold expression on her pretty face. Luo Xinghe gripped the de in his hand. His knuckles were white due to clenching the sword so tightly, and his face was full of killing intent. He sneered. ¡°What a beast! You won¡¯t even spare your own people!¡± ¡°You won¡¯t be able toughter.¡± Bloodseeker just sneered, his hot gaze greedily sweeping over the delicate faces of Xue Linglong, Yang Xuerou, and the other women. All these women would be his furnaces! The blood-red domain beneath his feet seemed to turn into a giant mouth that devoured flesh and blood. Blood Demon Gang members were dragged into the mire one by one and turned into nourishment, which Bloodseeker used to enhance his strength! Even a Stage Four Blood Demon Gang powerhouse was pulled into the mire by a bloodied hand around his ankle. This Blood Demon Gang powerhouse¡¯s face was full of fear. He desperately wanted to break free, but he was horrified when he realized that he was unable to call upon any of his strength at all. The blood surging in his veins gushed out uncontrobly from the pores all over his body, turning him bloody! ¡°How did it be like this?! Gang Leader, didn¡¯t you say that you would lead us to domination? How can you do this to us?¡± In a daze, this Blood Demon Gang powerhouse seemed to have suddenly realized something. He eximed, ¡°There¡¯s something wrong with the blood brew you rewarded us with!¡± The reason the Blood Demon Gang members increased in levels far faster than the average person was that they drank the blood brew that Bloodseeker had bestowed to them. When they drank the blood brew, they didn¡¯t need to fight with monsters. The sacrifice of other people¡¯s lives would give them strength. Nobody was able to walk away from this temptation. However, the rewards had been secretly marked with a price! Bloodseeker sniffed and nced at his subordinate. He stuck out his scarlet tongue and licked his lips, smiling cruelly! ¡°The blood brew is both a gift and a curse. Don¡¯t struggle. The reason you exist is to be my reserve food. After devouring your energy and blood, we will fuse into one. Domination is naturally not a problem.¡± The face of the Blood Demon Gang¡¯s Stage Four powerhouse was filled with resentment as he was quickly dragged into the blood-red mire and lost his life! In just a few moments, hundreds of Blood Demon Gang members were swallowed up and turned into blood vapor, which gushed into Bloodseeker¡¯s body! Bloodseeker¡¯s face was filled with intoxication and enjoyment, and the aura emanating from his body grew stronger and stronger. He broke through to Stage Five... Stage Five, Level 2... Stage Five, Level 3! The shoulder¡ªwhich was shattered by God Devourer Ant¡ªwas also healed! Bloodseeker stared at Xue Linglong and the others and then smiled evilly. ¡°You¡¯re next!¡± What surprised Bloodseeker was theck of fear in Xue Linglong and the other people¡¯s expressions. There was only coldness and killing intent! Could it be that these people still have an ace up their sleeve? Just as Bloodseeker thought about this, the roar of thunder grew louder around him! Vast heavenly might spread out, making one¡¯s heart tremble! Bloodseeker snapped his head up, only to see the dense clouds in the sky bing darker and deeper. Lightning shed in the clouds as if some kind of horrible storm was brewing! A monstrous pressure descended. Even Bloodseeker¡ªwho had been promoted to Stage Five¡ªfelt vaguely suffocated! This was the [Bead of Thunder Punishment]¡¯s main skill, [Heaven¡¯s Wrath Thunder Punishment]! Link was gone, but he left behind the [Bead of Thunder Punishment]. At this moment, God Devourer Ant and Star Moon activated the power of thunder within the sacred bead, releasing the Legend-grade forbidden curse¡ª[Heaven¡¯s Wrath Thunder Punishment]! At the same moment, Bloodseeker was alerted to the impending disaster, and he prepared to flee! The roar of thunder shook the sky and the earth! The whole sky was illuminated by the dazzling lightning! This was the might of the heavens¡ªHeaven¡¯s Wrath Thunder Punishment! Under the heavens¡¯ mighty power, all living creatures were insignificant like dust and ants. A thunder snake burst forth. Its blue and purple lightning enveloped the area, turning it into a domain of thunder! A ck thunder dragon with countless thunderbolts and a strong destructive aura also violently tore through the clouds and exited roaring! At this moment, heaven and earth seemed to tremble. The ringly bright lightning seemed to be destroying everything! Bloodseeker¡¯s eyes widened, and disbelief filled his face. ¡°This is a Forbidden Curse!¡± He was terrified. Even though Bloodseeker became a Stage Five existence, he couldn¡¯t fight against a Legend-grade Forbidden Curse! Bloodseeker turned into a blood shadow, frantically fleeing into the distance! However, there was no way to escape from the thunder¡¯s range! Serpents of thunder pounded his body. The ck thunder dragon opened its bloody mouth¡ªmade by the power of thunder¡ªand bit Bloodseeker! Bloodseeker¡¯s face was filled with unwillingness. He hissed and roared, but his voice waspletely masked by the sound of thunder! He looked like aical pantomime actor being swallowed by the lightning! It took a long while for calm to return to this ce. The wildly dancing thunder snakes disappeared, leaving only a charred ck pit with a broken, unrecognizable body. People close to the deep pit suddenly felt the blood in their body going out of control. They also saw Bloodseeker¡¯s broken body slowly crawling up! ¡°He¡¯s not dead?¡± The crowd of [Doomsday Online] yers from Unfallen City was a little surprised. ¡°Haha! The thunder cannot destroy me, but I will destroy you all!¡± Bloodseeker roared with false bravado. Just when the crowd thought that Bloodseeker was going to strike, he instead turned into a blood shadow and fled into the distance! It was a bluff! Bloodseeker didn¡¯t fall to the thunderstorm thanks to a dagger, which was awarded to him by the abyss existence he served. Although he survived the thunderstorm, he suffered heavy injuries. His strength had dropped to Stage Four, and he was in a pathetic state! However, Luo Xinghe moved faster than Bloodseeker. The cold gleam of a de shed, and Bloodseeker was beheaded! That day, the Blood Demon Gang waspletely exterminated! Luo Xinghe finally had his revenge. Heughed loudly, but his eyes were rimmed with red! Bloodseeker had killed his entire family. Though the enemy was now dead, those who had died could nevere back! A bloody dagger¡ªcovered with cracks¡ªfell to the ground as Bloodseeker fell! Xue Linglong said, ¡°This is the secret treasure that Bloodseeker used to activate the domain. It seems to be an extraordinary piece of equipment, but now it¡¯s broken.¡± ¡°Wait for the City Master to return; then, let him take a look.¡± ... No Retreat Army¡¯s base. The vast Undead army and arge number of mutated monsters had been reduced into corpses that were strewn all over the ground. After Link killed the Evil General, the Undead army¡ªwhich had lost its leader¡ªwas crushed by the summoned reflections and the No Retreat Army¡¯s warriors. The Evil General also dropped a pair of Diamond-grade boots. Zhao Yongkang gave them to Link. The No Retreat Army did not raise any objections. After all, if Link hadn¡¯te, they wouldn¡¯t have been able to keep their lives, let alone gain EXP and equipment. These hundred-plus people were truly grateful to Link and revered him from the bottom of their hearts! However, a strong aura of depravity and impurity still swirled around the ce they were at. The sky was also still gloomy, indicating that the crisis had not beenpletely resolved! Link turned his gaze toward a towering building in the distance and said grimly, ¡°The sacrificial altar used by the ck Dragon Gang should be over there. If the altar is notpletely destroyed, I¡¯m afraid this ce will be even more twisted. It might even be a breeding ground for mutated monsters.¡± With those words, Link walked toward the building. The future expansion of Unfallen City would definitely include Dragon City. The evil gods couldn¡¯t be allowed to exist on the edge of their territory! Chapter 123: Recuperate! March Towards the Darkness!

Chapter 123: Recuperate! March Towards the Darkness!

No Retreat Army¡¯s leader, Zhao Yongkang, said in a deep voice, ¡°City Master Link, please wait for a moment.¡± Link paused. ¡°Is there anything else?¡± Zhao Yongkang looked up at the dark sky and frowned. ¡°The God of Evil rituals performed by the ck Dragon Gang are extremely evil. Fighting those evil beings not only risks losing your life but also risks aberration.¡± ¡°Even we found fighting those Spiderhumans hard. Even if one doesn¡¯t get injured and infected, just gazing at those distorted sights for a long time can cause spiritual pollution and lead one to madness.¡± ¡°The altar is also the ce where the ck Dragon Gangmunicates with the God of Evil. There must be powerful evil beings guarding it. City Master Link, you should take a moment to recuperate and recover your strength before we head over to destroy the altar.¡± A No Retreat Army soldier soon answered, ¡°Yes, we are willing to go to the altar with City Master Link and fight against those aberrated monsters!¡± Link nodded slightly at his words and didn¡¯t refuse the No Retreat Army soldiers¡¯ goodwill. Participating in a series of battles had taken a considerable toll on Link¡¯s own physical and mental strength. The six-winged angel Yuna waved her staff, and a circle of sacred, pure, holy light energy flowed out like ripples. This holy light had a restraining effect on dark, unholy creatures, and it caused damage via the holy me. To all people, it was good for purifying the polluted. All the No Retreat Army soldiers felt a warmth well up inside their bodies as if their souls were cleansed by the holy light! Many No Retreat Army soldiers¡ªwho suffered from spiritual pollution and had indescribable whispers ringing in their ears¡ªfinally got out of that creepy state. They had once again felt the power of this summoned Angel, and they couldn¡¯t help but be amazed by it. ¡°The holy light is so warm. I feel like all my strength has been restored and that all the spiritual pollution from fighting the Spiderhumans has been dispelled!¡± ¡°Only City Master Link is capable of summoning such a powerful creature!¡± ¡°Thankfully, City Master Link came to support us this time. Otherwise, it would¡¯ve been difficult for us to escape those monsters¡¯ clutches!¡± ¡°The holy light can dispel the pollution. We can finally stop worrying about ourselves turning into one of those inhuman, aberrated monsters!¡± ... Taking the opportunity to recuperate, some soldiers retrieved water and food from the wrecked camp, purified them, and distributed them to the people. No Retreat Army¡¯s Priests¡ªwielding staffs¡ªcast recovery magic on the wounded and helped the crowd quickly recover their strength and condition. One Priest that was holding a scalpel caught Link¡¯s attention. This Priest was removing aberrated parts for the soldiers who were more severely polluted and couldn¡¯t bepletely healed by the holy light. For example, this young man¡ªwho looked like a military doctor¡ªdug out the blood-colored eyeball that grew on a soldier¡¯s arm and threw it on the ground at this moment. The blood-colored eyeball seemed to have a life of its own and was able to survive by itself. After being dug out, ck tentacles formed, and the eyeball tried to escape. But the young man used the scalpel to stab itpletely, turning the eyeball into a puddle of pus and blood. Link seemed to have met this young man in his past life, but he did not have a deep impression of him. This scene was brought to the No Retreat Army leader, Zhao Yongkang¡¯s attention, and he introduced him to Link. ¡°That¡¯s Jiang Cheng, who was said to be a doctor before the apocalypse. He has provided a lot of assistance during our encounter with the aberrated monsters.¡± After Zhao Yongkang¡¯s exnation, Link learned that the No Retreat Army had suffered great losses in the beginning since it was their first time encountering the aberrated monsters. Many survivors perished or were aberrated as a result. It was this young man named ¡®Jiang Cheng,¡¯ who had quickly sized up the situation and outlined the three stages of pollution. The first stage: the victim¡¯s spirit would suffer from initial pollution. Symptoms included evil whispers that rang in one¡¯s ears and non-existent strange ck shadows that asionally appeared before one¡¯s eyes. In the second stage, the victim¡¯s spirit would suffer from moderate pollution. Aberration would slightly ur on the body, but it wouldn¡¯t affect more than 30% of the whole body. This aberration manifested in the form of additional eyeballs, teeth, or organs that ingested food. The victim¡¯s internal organs would then be exposed on the surface of their body. In the third stage, the victim¡¯s spirit would suffer from severe pollution, leading them to madness and depravity. Irreversible aberration would ur on more than 70% of the victim¡¯s body, leading to aplete transformation into a monster. During the first two stages of pollution, one still had hope of being cured. In the third stage, there was basically no hope. When the No Retreat Army soldiers found themselves¡ªor theirrades around them¡ªat the third stage of pollution, they wouldn¡¯t hesitate to end the lives of the aberrated. It was because they were able to determine one¡¯s condition from the different stages of pollution that the No Retreat Army was able to secure a stronghold in a short period of time without all of them being aberrated. It seemed that many capable people had emerged with the apocalypse¡¯sing. Link silently remembered the young man¡¯s name. It was at this moment that Link felt a fluctuation in his spirit. It came from God Devourer Ant and Star Moon. Since Link was their Summoner, and they originated from him, he was able tomunicate with them via his mind. In the current situation where themunicationwork was down, making it difficult tomunicate with the others, this enabled Link to grasp the situation in Unfallen City immediately. During the previous battle with the Undead, Link received the news that the Blood Demon Gang was attacking Unfallen City. Since Link had made contingency ns, he did not make use of the [Ring of Teleportation]¡¯s [So Close, Yet So Far] to teleport back to Unfallen City. He believed that Unfallen City had the ability to eliminate the Blood Demon Gang, and that was exactly what happened. At this moment, the spiritual fluctuationsing from God Devourer Ant were to inform Link that Bloodseeker had been decapitated. Knowing that the Blood Demon Gang had been eliminated, Link gathered his spirit and began to meditate to recover his energy. ... Over 40 minutester. Link opened his eyes. At the same time, Zhao Yongkang gathered the No Retreat Army¡¯s soldiers. The No Retreat Army had previously dyed the Undead army and most of the aberrated monsters. However, there were still aberrated monsters in the city. The people who retreated first were also likely to have been polluted by the crowd of Spiderhumans. Their status was unknown at the moment. Therefore, there could not be any dys. Even if they recuperated, they had to watch the time closely. Most of the soldiers had recovered their strength. Although it was hard to fight the sleepiness, they were able to continue fighting. A few heavily wounded were housed at the temporary camps set up, and personnel were arranged to look after them. Link looked at the crowd lined up in front of him¡ªwhich was standing at attention¡ªand said in a deep voice, ¡°Let¡¯s go to the altar.¡± ¡°Yes!¡± The No Retreat Army soldiers responded in a resounding voice as they stared at Link, filled with admiration. After the previous battle, he had be everyone¡¯s support and backbone. He was held in high prestige in the No Retreat Army soldiers¡¯ hearts. The scene also caught the attention of Zhao Yongkang. But the No Retreat Army¡¯s leader did not feel annoyed. He smiled instead. Zhao Yongkang was not obsessed with power, and he had recognized Link¡¯s ability. He even thought that there perhaps might be hope in changing the future if he followed this man. Link led almost 100 No Retreat Army soldiers into the city¡¯s criss-crossing streets. The sky was dark due to the area being distorted by the God of Evil¡¯s aura. They advanced step by step as if being slowly swallowed by the fog-like darkness... Chapter 124: Insect Summoner! Aura of the God of Evil!

Chapter 124: Insect Summoner! Aura of the God of Evil!

¡°Help!¡± ¡°It¡¯s Chief Zhao; they¡¯re alive!¡± ¡°Chief Zhao, save us! The spider monsters are after us!¡± After entering the city¡¯s interior, Link and a group of No Retreat Army soldiers soon met a group of survivors. There were more than a dozen people in this group, including two children. They were running around in a panic, their faces full of fear. The ones chasing them were several aberrated Stage Three Spiderhumans, including an elite Spiderhuman¡ªfrom whom a powerful Stage Four aura emanated. The path was suddenly lit up by a brilliant holy light. It arched beautifully, and the world seemed to be illuminated by this stunningly pure light! The six-winged angel Yuna waved her staff, and a zing white beam of light burst out, sweeping toward several aberrated Spiderhumans. Six-winged angels¡ªalso known as mid-level angels¡ªwere responsible for separating the world of gods from the world of humans and maintaining their respective orders. With Yuna¡¯s promotion to Stage Four, her strength was already close to the peak of a mid-level angel. As a mythical creature, her battle power was enough to crush enemies of the same rank, not to mention aberrated creatures that had been restrained. Several Spiderhumans were immediately caught in the holy mes and burned to ashes. The dozen or so rescued [Doomsday Online] yers froze. They nkly stared at Yuna as if she were a god who had descended. The dozen or so of them were all low-level [Doomsday Online] yers. Just a few Stage Three Spiderhumans, plus a Stage Four Spiderhuman, were enough to be their nightmare. But the angel in front of them had wiped out such terrifying monsters with just a wave of her hand, so how could they not be shocked? Many of the survivors had thoughts of prostrating to Yuna. Some had already fallen to their knees. ¡°An angel!¡± ¡°An angel hase to save us!¡± ... Zhao Yongkang¡ªwho wanted to make clear the situation as soon as possible¡ªimmediately said, ¡°The angel is City Master Link¡¯s summon. It hase to help us get through this. You guys are fine now; where are the others? Were you separated from therge evacuation party?¡± When they heard Zhao Yongkang say that the sacred and iparable angel in front of them was actually someone¡¯s summon, many people were doubly shocked! The gazes of all the survivors turned to Link, their faces filled with awe. Just what kind of extraordinary person is he that he can be the master of an angel? It took a while before someone calmed down enough to reply. ¡°Chief Zhao, shortly after we evacuated, we encountered a blockade from the ck Dragon Gang! In order to protect us, Commander Luo Haoyue led his warriors into a desperate fight against the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s monsters, but one of the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s monsters with a ghastly white face was terrifyingly powerful.¡± ¡°Commander Luo Haoyue was overwhelmed and captured by that man! That strange man with the ghastly white face seemed to have an extremely high status in the ck Dragon Gang. He seemed to have specificallye for Commander Luo Haoyue.¡± ¡°After the ck Dragon Gang took away Commander Luo, we were then separated by the aberrated monsters. The situation after that is unclear!¡± Zhao Yongkang frowned. ¡°They came specifically for Luo Haoyue? Could that strange man be the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s mysterious leader?¡± Link frowned slightly at his words. Luo Haoyue¡ªsomeone he had contact with in his previous life¡ªwas one of the No Retreat Army¡¯s Stage Four powerhouses. Luo Haoyue had a hidden profession of the Summoner ss, [Insect Summoner]. She was able to summon aberrated insect creatures to fight for her. In the next attack¡ªthe Zerg swarm¡ªthis ability would be very useful. For that reason, Luo Haoyue was also on Link¡¯s mental list of recruits. However, the ck Dragon Gang had apparently also realized the value of Luo Haoyue, though their specific ns were unknown. Zhao Yongkang pondered for a moment and said somewhat guiltily, ¡°City Master Link, the evacuation party was separated, and there should be many people who are being chased by the Spiderhumans. I¡¯m afraid we¡¯ll have to split our troops into two.¡± ¡°I¡¯ll bring a portion of my men to search for survivors in the city. The altar...¡± Link nodded slightly; the altar was something he had to destroy. Otherwise, the distortion here would spread out and affect Unfallen City. Seeing Link nod, Zhao Yongkang continued speaking. ¡°In that case, we will depend on City Master Link. Once we clear the city of aberrated monsters, we will immediately rush over to support City Master Link.¡± Once they finished speaking, the two began to move without dy. Link continued to move toward the root of the twisted and depraved aura, while Zhao Yongkang led some of his men to sweep the surrounding streets for Spiderhumans and save as many survivors as possible. The closer they got to the building where the ck Dragon Gang had set up the altar, the more eerie and gruesome the atmosphere became. It seemed that the darkness here was extraordinarily dense because of the influence of the God of Evil¡¯s aura. It almost had the consistency of water. Even the originally straight street had been distorted. Withered trees were like twisted ghostly hands weing Link and the others. Huge cocoons lined the street, some of which were moving. This ce looked like the center of a huge spider¡¯s nest. All that could be seen after breaking open many of the cocoons were humans, who had died horribly. Their faces were frozen in despair and fear. Some cocoons burst open on their own ord when Link and the others approached. From within, small green spiders¡ªthe size of a fist¡ªcame toward them like a tide. It was a good thing Yuna was there. The holy light was enough to turn these small spiders into ashes. Moreover, quite a few Spiderhumans were still roaming around here. The number of elite Stage Four Spiderhumans was also gradually increasing. After decimating several waves of Spiderhumans, Link and the others finally arrived at the building that continuously emitted a wild and evil aura. However, this building probably couldn¡¯t be considered a building anymore. It was surrounded by spider silk, looking like a huge cocoon. It was as if an extremely terrifying monster was breeding in it! Here, everyone felt a terrifying sense of oppression. The whispers that lingered in their ears became more and more frantic! A strong feeling of unease¡ªbordering on fear¡ªflooded the No Retreat Army soldiers¡¯ hearts. They felt as if they were headed for death! Fear grew like a weed in their hearts. The No Retreat Army soldiers that came with Link all subconsciously stopped in their tracks. The building seemed to be against all life. It made them shiver in fear! It was as if an invisible, cold hand was clutching their hearts, suffocating them! Even with Yuna¡¯s [Holy Light Purification], the intensity of the God of Evil¡¯s aura still sent two soldiers into irreversible madness! It was a good thing that the surrounding No Retreat Army soldiers were experienced in dealing with the aberrated. Hence, they quickly resolved theirrades¡¯ pain. After such a thing happened, it made Link understand that even the elite [Doomsday Online] yers might not be able to step foot inside the building. The closer they got to the source of the God of Evil¡¯s aura, the more inevitable the aberration and madness¡ªthe more inevitable! Was this the gods? Only Link¡ªwho had the [Fearless Pathfinder] title¡ªwouldn¡¯t be affected by the whispers and spiritual pollution. Thus, he immediately said, ¡°The next ce is the source of the distortion. I will go in by myself. All of you, stay outside. If you can¡¯t stand the effects of the pollution here, just stay further away.¡± Chapter 125: Fallen Domain! Spider Statue!

Chapter 125: Fallen Domain! Spider Statue!

¡°Lord, it¡¯s too dangerous for you to enter the building alone. Let me go in your ce!¡± Luo Xingyao¡¯s face was a little pale. It was getting difficult for her to resist the evil whispers ringing in her ears. However, she still stubbornly gritted her teeth and blocked Link¡¯s way. Luo Xingyao didn¡¯t want to see Link go into the dangerous and unpredictable building alone. But she herself was unclear as to what the specific reason was. On the other side, Qiao Ruowei also took a step forward. She said grimly, ¡°Let me go instead. I¡¯m good at hiding, and I have a better chance of destroying the altar.¡± A group of No Retreat Army soldiers also picked up the conversation, expressing their willingness to follow or go in Link¡¯s ce to destroy the God of Evil¡¯s altar. In the apocalypse, the hearts of people were most visible. Warmth suffused Link¡¯s heart, but the expression on his face remained serious. He had to do what followed alone. The pollution and distortion here had reached a terrifying level. The probability of the others turning into aberrated deeper inside was too high. After all, not anyone had the added buffs from the [Fearless Pathfinder] title, which allowed one never to fall into madness and break down. Moreover, Link had the [Ring of Teleportation]. If something about the situation wasn¡¯t right, he could still teleport away at any time. Although he was heading to a dangerous ce, it wasn¡¯t a ce of no return for him. ¡°No need. All of you wait a little further away. I know what I¡¯m doing.¡± Link¡¯s calm words fell, powerful and resonating. Link did not linger. He side-stepped Luo Xingyao and stepped into the building, while the six-winged angel, Yuna, followed closely behind him. Luo Xingyao and Qiao Ruowei subconsciously wanted to follow Link, but they were stopped by a wave of Yuna¡¯s hand. ¡°Master has his own ns. The pollution in the building is too much for you to bear. If you don¡¯t want to be a burden to Master, you should follow Master¡¯s instructions.¡± Luo Xingyao and Qiao Ruowei knew that Yuna¡¯s words were the truth. Although the two women were reluctant, they could only stop outside the building with the rest of the No Retreat Army¡¯s soldiers. They silently watched as Link¡¯s slender back disappeared from view as if it was swallowed by the foggy darkness. In the eyes of the crowd, Link¡¯s back view looked a little sad and deste at this moment! The unknown often brought fear. Nobody knew what was in the building; there might even be a God of Evil! It could be said that this ce was incredibly dangerous from the moment a person stepped into it. With the increased distortion and pollution, it was a ce where one was more likely to die than live. Many people clenched their fists and cursed the ck Dragon Gang under their breath. A few women from the No Retreat Army had already begun to pray silently for Link, hoping that he would return safely. Luo Xingyao and Qiao Ruowei also clenched their pink fists. Their hearts were filled with apprehension, though their gazes remained steady. After all, Link had never let anyone down thus far. Both of them had an almost worshipful trust in him. ¡°The Lord will definitely return safely. The pollution near the building is too severe; let¡¯s retreat to a safe distance and wait for the Lord to return,¡± said Luo Xingyao somberly. The No Retreat Army soldiers did not object. At this moment, it was pitch ck inside the building. The darkness seemed almost tangible as it caressed Link¡¯s body. There was resistance as he walked through it. It felt as if he were walking through water. There was also a slippery feeling underfoot. It felt as if they were walking on some kind of flesh, and it emitted a strange squelching sound. Even Yuna¡ªsurrounded by swirling holy light as the staff in her hand glowed brightly¡ªcould only illuminate a small area around her in this iparably bizarre environment. Using the holy light¡¯s illumination, Link scrutinized the surrounding environment. This ce was indeed the source of aberration, and it was iparably twisted. The surrounding walls, ceilings, and floors were covered with dark-brown flesh. Link and Yuna seemed to be walking in the body of some huge creature. These flesh-like walls were like a living thing, breathing and trembling. Fear, despair, depravity, and sphemy filled every corner and saturated the air. Even the Holy Angel, Yuna, didn¡¯t look too good. Link was also being attacked by fear and madness. If an ordinary person were to witness such a sight, they would most likely have been distorted and aberrated long ago. But under the effects of [Fearless]¡ªa passive skill¡ªa misty glow rippled out of Link¡¯s body, resisting the darkness around it. As Link¡¯s summon, Yuna was also partially affected by [Fearless]. Together with her own divine attributes, she was able to resist the attacks. Link and Yuna followed the source of the evil aura and went deeper. During this, Link took out the [Mask of the Faceless] and covered his face with it. This piece of equipment was also a part of chaos, and it had the passive skill, [Faceless]. The wearer would receive the chaos¡¯s protection. The wearer also couldn¡¯t be deduced, spotted, and identified. To destroy the Spider God¡¯s altar, one must naturally be well prepared. After all, existences at the level of gods all possessed great power beyond human imagination. Even a single thought from them was enough to cause disaster. Link did not want to be targeted by a god just yet. The source of the distortion came from underground¡ªwhere the original building¡¯s basement should be. However, the original staircases and elevators had disappeared without a trace. The way to the lower floor from the upper floor had been transformed into a hole full of spikes¡ªwhich looked like a giant mouth full of teeth. As Link and Yuna approached, the giant mouth seemed to sense the unfamiliar auras. It let out a strange hiss. With the hissing sound, numerous Stage Three and Stage Four Spiderhumans quickly crawled out of the hole. They then lunged at Link and Yuna. Without hesitation, Link wielded the [King¡¯s sword] and swung it. With his current battle power, he was able to suppress Stage Five monsters and even Stage Six monsters. These aberrated monsters were no match for him. They were churned into a puddle of flesh by the raging sword. Link minced the fleshy ground and leaped underground. The deeper they went, the more bizarre the sights were. A number of aberrated Spiderhumans were gathered in the basement. On the flesh walls were cocoon-like bulges. More aberrated monsters were apparently being bred. This ce had be something like a domain. As Link had expected, this ce would definitely be a hotbed for the God of Evil¡¯s birth if the altar was not dealt with in time. ... At the same time, in the second level of the building¡¯s basement. A huge altar stood here. If one examined it carefully, they would see that every part of the altar was made of piled-up human bones and limbs. It was bloody and horrifying. There was a strangely shaped spider statue on the altar! The twisted and evil aura emanated from this statue. Three twisted, spider-like figures respectfully kneeled under the altar. These three figures were much bigger than the other aberrated monsters. The suppression emanating from their bodies was even more terrifying. They were obviously the most powerful of the Spiderhumans. These three Spiderhumans¡¯ eyes suddenly flickered with a green, ghostly aura, and an evil whisper followed. ¡°A human is approaching.¡± ¡°Finally...¡± Chapter 126: God of Evil鈥檚 High Priest! Might of the Mask!

Chapter 126: God of Evil¡¯s High Priest! Might of the Mask!

Hiss! Amidst the sharp cries, a Stage Four Spiderhuman¡¯s mouth opened like flower petals and spurted out a blob of green liquid, which flew toward Link and Yuna. A foul wind came! But before the liquid touched the corners of Link¡¯s clothes, a ball of brilliant holy light bloomed at the area. Like a big sun exploding at the ce, golden holy mes swept across this slightly blocked-up space! The sticky green liquid and sea of Spiderhumans were burnt into ashes! The monsters¡¯ agonizing cries sounded without end. A considerable number of monsters were in the basement, but before Link and Yuna¡¯s powerfulbat ability, they werepletely unable to cause trouble. Moreover, Link also astutely discovered some peculiarities during the battle. The majority of the low-level Spiderhumans would madly attack Yuna. But when it came to him, they appeared to be quite cowardly, or rather, fearful. Is it because the [Mask of the Faceless]¡¯s status is too high that it made these Spiderhumans fearful? This thought shed through Link¡¯s heart. He then recalled Yuna into the void and faced the numerous Spiderhumans alone. The Spiderhumans¡ªwho were originally insane and restless¡ªinstantly calmed down. Some low-level Spiderhumans, who¡¯d just hatched, even crouched down before Link, trembling! It was just like how ants could only tremble and y up to the dragons when set against them! Even the Stage Three Spiderhumans stopped their movements. They seemed to be afraid, frightened by the aura that Link radiated. Only the exceedingly few Stage Four Spiderhumans expressed hostility toward the invader, Link. But they barely released some cries, seemingly very terrified too. After testing the mask¡¯s effects for a while, the corners of Link¡¯s mouth rose slightly. It seems that the [Mask of the Faceless] is indeed an extraordinarily powerful piece of equipment. He let Yuna out once more and quickly cleaned up the Spiderhumans on this floor. Link could sense that there were even more frightening existences on the next floor. After cleaning up the aberrated monsters on this floor, Link split open the flesh wall beneath his feet without hesitation and entered the basement¡¯s second level. A massive altar¡ªformed using the bones and distorted limbs of human beings¡ªinstantly came into sight. Meanwhile, the faintly discernible murmurs¡ªwhich had been echoing within the building the entire time¡ªalso reached the peak at this moment! This was the source of the God of Evil¡¯s aura! It was as if certain existences were chanting and extolling the extremely noble god using anguage and tone that humankind couldn¡¯tprehend. Brilliance bloomed around Link¡ªit was [Fearless], a passive skill, taking effect. Link appeared like a god roaming the world, unaffected by the invasion of madness. Beneath the massive altar were three aberrated Spiderhumans. Presently, they had all stood up, watching Link and Yuna, these two unwee guests. They then emitted a warped yet powerful suppression. These three Spiderhumans had all reached Stage Five! They were top powerhouses that had surpassed humanity; they were like the worst nightmares to most humans at the current stage! ck needle-like long hair covered them entirely, and their body surfaces gleamed with a metal-like luster. Faint green glows flickered as six pairs of spider eyes blinked¡ªtheir distorted faces made one shudder with terror! A notification also entered Link¡¯s mind at this moment. [Spiderhuman High Priest] Race: Lower Servant Level: Stage 5, Level 4 Introduction: Servant of the Spider God, As Nakya. They are transformed from a fanatic follower, extolling His greatness all day long. They¡ªwho have received the Spider God¡¯s favor¡ªare ruthless and cold-blooded. They will cause mental pollution to the feeble-minded, inducing madness and aberration. ... Link scrutinized the aberrated monsters before him, his eyes slightly narrowed. These three Stage Five aberrated monsters were enough to destroy the No Retreat Armypletely! Fortunately¡ªfor some unknown reason¡ªthese three Spiderhuman High Priests had been keeping guard by this altar the whole time. Otherwise, the No Retreat Army wouldn¡¯t have been able tost till his rescue at all. To destroy the altar, Link clearly needed to annihte these three aberrated monsters first. Presently, the three Spiderhuman High Priests did notunch an attack against Link immediately. They looked at Link¡¯s face, slight surprise revealing in their eyes! Hoarse, piercing voices then sounded. ¡°This... This is the aura of a god. Why is there a god¡¯s aura on you?¡± So much so that, due to gazing at the [Mask of the Faceless] on Link¡¯s face for a long period of time, the two phantom-green eyes of a Spiderhuman High Priest directly burst. Green liquid also sttered! Aberrated monsters all possessed powerful self-healing abilities and high vitality. But this Spiderhuman High Priest¡¯s eyeballs¡ªwhich had popped¡ªdid not regrow. Instead, they became two spiral openings. These openings were very simr to the ck whirlpools drawn on the [Mask of the Faceless]. In addition, the spiral openings seemed to be constantly ripping up the Spiderhuman High Priest¡¯s flesh and blood. Piteous cries resounded in the second level of the basement. This was [Counter Pollution]! Even Link was slightly surprised. The mask on his face was actually able to counter-pollute and affect the monster before him. This not only showed that the mask had a high status, but it also indicated the [Mask of the Faceless]¡¯s source. That indescribable existence... His position was probably even higher than that of the Spider God! The mask¡¯s background should be extremely frightening. The two other Spiderhuman High Priests forced themselves to retract their gaze; they did not dare to look above Link¡¯s neck again. The spider statue on the altar was also trembling lightly. It had seemingly sensed the threat; the aura emanating from the statue became increasingly twisted and mad... ¡°No matter which god¡¯s envoy you are, those who intrude into the altar without permission must die!¡± The three Spiderhuman High Priests very quickly recovered to their senses from the initial surprise. They let out hoarse cries andunched attacks at Link. One Spiderhuman High Priest opened itsrge, bloody mouth and spurted out arge mass of green energy. The green energy turned into a massive in mid-air, enveloping Link and Yuna inside it. The massive radiated a strange aura. It felt as if one would fall into an endless illusion once they came into contact with it. Link was on-guard in his heart, and the [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique] was instantlyunched! The [King¡¯s Sword] in his hand released a golden glow, and streaks of sword energy burst forth¡ªtempestuous, swift, and fierce! A piercing sword intent instantly filled the entire basement¡¯s second level. It felt like a sword immortal had arrived, and the temperature dropped sharply! The massive was torn apart by the sword energy that danced wildly! At the side, Yuna also swung her staff immediately. A ball of holy light energy instantly mmed toward the three Spiderhuman High Priests like a meteor! [Holy Light Purification]! Boom! Amidst the roar, a Spiderhuman High Priest forcefully endured Yuna¡¯s attack. As a result, holy mes burned his multiple brawny, long legs. But without the slightest hesitation, this Spiderhuman High Priest actually tore these few limbs off directly! Flesh and blood at the torn-off limb areas wriggled. New limbs grew out very quickly and came pouncing toward Link. The frightening spider legs were covered in barbs, and the ends were extremely sharp. They tore through the air, whistling as winds rose! Once prated, the barbs would be nailed to the prey¡¯s insides, causing secondary damage in the process of dragging! With such a quick and ferocious attack, even a Stage Four powerhouse would be killed on the spot! Chapter 127: Killing the High Priests! Counter Pollution!

Chapter 127: Killing the High Priests! Counter Pollution!

The [King¡¯s Sword] let out a flourishing sharp light. The sword energy all over Link surged like a tide and swept toward the Spiderhuman High Priest. A roar instantly exploded in the basement! The repercussions of the battle ripped up hideous slits in the ground made of flesh! The might that burst out from the two¡¯s collision wasparable to that of a Stage Six being. The quake had the entire basement¡¯s first level shaking! If it weren¡¯t because the area had already been influenced by the heretic god¡¯s aura and turned into a special [Domain], it would certainly copse. The Spiderhuman High Priest was relying on the fact that it was in this unique [Domain]¡ªthis basement level was already deeply twisted. The flesh walls all around were covered in strange and heretical runes, outlined using fresh blood. There were even hearts, skulls, and the like ced on the important nodal points. As such, the Spiderhuman High Priest¡¯s capabilities tremendously amplified in this area! On the other hand, Link relied on his own exceedingly high attributes. All his equipment¡ªwhich were Legend or Myth-grade¡ªhad also further raised his attributes, making him strong enough to resist a Stage Six existence! Within seconds, the two collided multiple times with a terrifying force. The Spiderhuman High Priest¡¯s sharp chelicerae were all broken; Link even sent it flying, and it crashed hard into the flesh-made ground. The remaining two Spiderhuman High Priests could not restrain themselves from looking full of terror! One must know that the suppression emitting from the human before them was merely Stage Four, yet he hadpletely repressed a Stage Five Spiderhuman in battle! This ce was their home ground! Yet, they were being crushed by a Stage Four human? How was that possible!? Some uneasiness and chilliness rose in the two aberrated monsters¡¯ hearts presently. They both acted, seeking to finish off the enemy before them as quickly as possible. One Spiderhuman High Priest opened its mouth that was full of fangs. Green spiders¡ªthe size of a fist and mixed with a sticky liquid¡ªpoured out of its mouth and swarmed toward Link. Meanwhile, the other Spiderhuman High Priest waved the staff, made from human bones, in its hand! The runes that densely covered the basement¡¯s second level instantly released a scarlet-red glow! The surroundings became even darker and more twisted. Under the invasion of a strange strength, the murmuring whispers became even more intense, inducing one to fall into an eternal illusion. Even Holy Angel Yuna¡¯s present countenance had be more ghastly. Due to the array¡¯s influence, her spirit had drooped. It seemed as if she would be dragged into an illusion at any time. At this moment, Link depended on [Fearless]¡¯s effects to withstand the mental impact and influence. But the array¡¯s effects weren¡¯t just targeted at one¡¯s spirit. Even Link¡¯s body started to feel extremely fatigued, and his eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand tons! It felt as if an icy-cold palm was currently resting on Link¡¯s face, wanting to close his eyes! Link had to settle the battle as soon as possible. He was taken aback in his heart, and heunched the [Mask of the Faceless]¡¯s active skill! [God of Evil¡¯s Whispers]! Somehow, there seemed to be a supreme being who cast His gaze and influence at this area. The three Spiderhuman High Priests¡¯ bodies trembled violently! In a trance, they witnessed an exceedingly terrifying scene. The light and space behind Link distorted. A twisted, chaotic, and indescribable ck figure then seemed to appear! An overwhelming suppression and aura came from the ck figure¡ªit was inexhaustible chaos and madness! This figure was surely a supreme god; just the figure¡¯s aura was enough to make the three Spiderhuman High Priests feel fear and shudder! The [God of Evil¡¯s Whispers]¡¯s effect and the area¡¯s unique array effect ovepped one another! Link and Yuna instantly felt their bodies¡¯ exhaustion ease significantly. The little, green spiders that swarmed toward the both of them stopped moving in unison. They let out painful cries and then exploded, bing some kind of disgusting green liquid. The voice of madness¡ªfilled with sphemy and degeneration¡ªsounded by the three Spiderhuman High Priests¡¯ ears. Even as aberrated creatures, they actually could not resist! There seemed to be many cirri and arms stretching out from the surrounding darkness, seeking to enclose them! Under the [God of Evil¡¯s Whispers]¡¯s influence, even their absolute faith in the Spider God saw a change. [Aberration] not of spider form urred within the three Spiderhuman High Priests¡¯ bodies! Masses of flesh swelled, and cirri and eyes emerged on the surface of their bodies! [Counter Pollution]! The [Mask of the Faceless]¡¯s potency set chills in one¡¯s heart. In Link and Yuna¡¯s field of vision. The three Spiderhuman High Priests were frozen in ce. An indescribable ck shadow wound around them, nestled up against their cheeks, and whispered intimately... Seeing that all three Spiderhuman High Priests had fallen into this peculiar state, Link did not hesitate to strike again. The [King¡¯s Sword] swung out,unching an offense at the Spiderhuman High Priest who had sunk into the flesh-made ground. A strong power of death suffused from Link as if a deathly still Styx flowed around him! A figure shrouded beneath a cloak and a hood appeared behind Link! A mist of death swept across, and the space shuddered¡ªHe seemed to be Death itself! A massive silver sickle¡ªgleaming with a startling cold glow¡ªarrived at the same time as the [King¡¯s Sword]¡¯s de and harvested life! It was [Death Judgment]! Crack! This strike had luckily triggered the instant death effect! The Spiderhuman High Priest¡¯s hideous body instantly broke into pieces! The sttering pieces appeared withered as if they¡¯d long decayed¡ªall vitality was destroyed! The two other Spiderhuman High Priests seemed to have sensed danger. They violently struggled as if they wanted to break free of that frightening state. Link¡¯s gaze was cold, his mental strength swiftly spread out. Many translucent cirri appeared in the empty air and went killing towards the closest enemy! [Cirrus Limbs]! The air seemed to be whipped open by the steel whip-like cirri, letting out fearsome booms. And in the next instant, the cirri had already prated a Spiderhuman High Pries¡¯s bodyt! Flesh and blood flew in all directions! The influence of the cirri¡ªtogether with the [God of Evil¡¯s Whispers]¡¯s pollution¡ªhad this Spiderhuman High Priest directly deviate from his faith in the Spider God. His whole body continuously aberrated, directly crumbling into arge mass of bloated flesh. The cirri then minced it. At this point, the other Spiderhuman High Priest finally broke free of the [God of Evil¡¯s Whispers]¡¯s control. Multiplerge chelicerae came shing toward Link, wanting to tear his body up! The cirri instantly retracted and turned into a huge shield before Link! Boom! Amidst the roar, the Spiderhuman High Priest was thrown back by the counterforce. Link¡¯s mental strength was also greatly depleted. Presently, Yuna swung out balls of holy light energy. They flew toward the Spiderhuman High Priest like cannonballs. Link alsounched [Holy Charge] at the same time. The [King¡¯s Sword] in his grip and the cirrus limbs¡ªtransformed from mental strength¡ªwent thrusting toward the Spiderhuman High Priest together! Even the Spiderhuman High Priest could not counter this terrifying attack. Fear and despair shed through those six sinister pupils! But at the next moment, the Spiderhuman High Priest¡¯s twisted limbs were directly crushed! The three Stage Five aberrated monsters were all dead! Golden holy mes burned on those tattered broken limbs. Link and Yuna walked among the holy mes, slowly moving up that heretical and strange altar! The two people¡¯s shadows flickered in the mes¡¯ light, appearing to be peerlessly huge! Chapter 128: Destroying the Altar! Facing the God!

Chapter 128: Destroying the Altar! Facing the God!

At the top of the altar stood a statue with a shape simr to a spider. Distorted runes, drawn using fresh blood, were in front of the statue, and it seemed to be this heretic god¡¯s name. This statue was as tall as a person, and a God of Evil¡¯s aura came from it. This statue¡¯s true form could not be described; it was very abstract and distorted. After all, the so-called gods were something humankind could not understand or touch. Everything about the gods¡¯ appearances were merely the visions of humankind. Even their names were humankind¡¯s transliteration; no one knew the gods¡¯ real names. Yuna, who possessed holy attributes, had a strong aversion toward this statue in her heart. ¡°Master, this statue is probably the medium the ck Dragon Gang uses tomunicate with the God of Evil. If we destroy it immediately, this area should no longer be affected by the God of Evil¡¯s aura.¡± Link nodded lightly, and the [King¡¯s Sword] in his hand and the cirrus limbs harshly shed at the statue! The air was instantly ripped apart, and a boom sounded! Yuna also wielded her staff. A ball of brilliant holy light went smashing toward the statue! The two people¡¯s attributes andbat ability far exceeded peers of the same level. Presently, acting without reservations, the might that burst out had reached the magnitude of a Stage Six! Boom! Amidst the roar, the statue¡ªmade of an unknown material¡ªcracked at every inch! But even after the statue exploded, the six gems on the statue¡ªwhich acted as the spider¡¯s eyes¡ªdid not break. Instead, they gathered together and released a misty radiance! A strange and frightening aura instantly spread through the air! Cracks actually surfaced in the world before Link and Yuna¡¯s eyes. They swiftly extended like a spiderweb and then broke like a mirror! The two of them seemed to have fallen into an endless illusion; the scene in front of their eyes changed speedily! Dense, inteced spider silk appeared before Link. These spiderwebs were extraordinarily huge. Like pirs that connected to heaven, they hung in the world. The scene was appalling! It was as if Link and Yuna had fallen into the nest of a certain giant spider. But deep inside those spiderwebs seemed to be a peerlessly great, vast, and indescribable figure present! A mere passing nce, and Link and Yuna had lowered their heads instinctively, shifting their gazes away. They only saw a shadow that was jet ck like the abyss. When they wanted to take another look, they instinctively sensed extreme danger! One mustn¡¯t look directly at a god! Just looking would bring about infinite disaster and destruction! Even if that God of Evil had not noticed them at this time! The world before their eyes was filled with the God of Evil¡¯s aura; it was no longer part of the physical world already! This was the Spider God, As Nakya! He existed in the depths of dreands! He was always constantly weaving a massive, setting up a bridge between the sober world and dreams. Many people believed that the bridge would bepleted once he finished weaving the and that the apocalyptic world would arrive following that! This was an indescribable God of Evil. He was currently sleeping soundly in the depths of the dreamlike spiderwebs. His broad physique could not be described; the air currents that he breathed out were like a gentle breeze but also the abyss¡¯s miasma. It made one fearful! Facing the god, fear and madness constantly hit Link and Yuna! Even with [Fearless]¡¯s protection, the two people still felt immense uneasiness and crisis in their hearts! How did we get here? Link wondered inwardly, but he was still calm. He activated [Ring of Teleportation]¡¯s active skill¡ª[So Close, Yet So Far]¡ªat the first moment. This skill could mark a total of five nodes in space, and it could allow the user to return to the marked space nodes. Following his thoughts, the [Ring of Teleportation] in Link¡¯s hand lit up with a silver glow. But it did not bring the duo out of this dreadful, nightmare-like ce immediately. A notification entered Link¡¯s mind. [Ding! Detected that you are in a special space¡ªDreands. Due to the influence of the God of Evil¡¯s aura, space teleportation cannot be aplished immediately.] [Teleportation countdown; 10... 9... 8...] Even the [Ring of Teleportation]¡¯s teleportation ability was restricted here! Fortunately, the restriction had merely dyed the teleportation time. If it were to restrict teleportation directly, Link and Yuna would probably have to remain here forever, bing the Spider God¡¯s food! Every second spent waiting seemed like an eternity. The uneasiness and sense of crisis that filled Link and Yuna¡¯s heart became even stronger! The Spider God resting in the spiderwebs¡¯ depths seemed like He was just about to leave the state that was between dream and reality. Once He awoke, it would be equivalent to death arriving! Finally, the countdown was about to end! Link¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly. The cirrus limbs reached out and cut off a portion of the spider silk from the massive spiderwebs. Coming to the God of Evil¡¯s abode meant bearing extreme danger, so Link wasn¡¯t willing to make a trip here in vain. One must know that everything which existed here had to do with the God of Evil. Stained with the God of Evil¡¯s aura, they would certainly be materials of extremely high quality. Together with [Supreme Blessing]¡ªwhich was Link¡¯s talent ability¡ªLink could further increase the items¡¯ quality! The gains this time would certainly be beyond imagination! Of course, if Link¡¯s act of pulling out the heretic god¡¯s hair was learned by the Spider God, it would certainly incur his terrifying fury. In reality, as a piece of spider silk was cut off, the sense of crisis in Link and Yuna¡¯s heart also soared to the peak. It seemed like the frightening God of Evil was about to wake up! Fortunately, the countdown hadpletely ended! Link and Yuna¡¯s figures instantly vanished from the area. Not long after, that massive, indescribable spider slowly lifted His eyelids. Of the six spider eyes, four were shut. Only two were open, and it seemed as if worlds were being annihted in those deep eyes! The Spider God sensed that someone had left and had taken part of His spider silk. He conveyed an emotion of rage! A frightening aura instantly shook in the spiderwebs¡¯ depths; the darkness boiled at once like a tide! A magnificent voice¡ªwhich humankind could notprehend¡ªsounded; it sounded like a soft ¡®eh.¡¯ ¡°Hmm? Who stole my spider silk? This aura is a little familiar.¡± The Spider God, As Nakya, began to deduce, intending to lock onto the visitor that came uninvited. How dare they steal my spider silk and disrespect me? They naturally have to bear boundless fury and destruction! But a hint of surprise soon shed across As Nakya¡¯s heart. He actually could not get any information about that thief. As Nakya was rather surprised. Those massive spider eyes on His body opened sessively, and the aura He emitted also became even scarier! Even when all six of His spider eyes were open, He was still unable to learn the thief¡¯s information. The only thing He got was chaos! ¡°Chaos?!¡± The frightening aura shook for a long time before the Spider God recovered His calm. The six spider eyes then closed in session once more. ... Presently, Link and Yuna had already returned from the Dreands and were back in the basement¡¯s second level. The coordinates that Link had marked for teleportation was outside the building. It was probably due to the influence of the God of Evil¡¯s aura that a certain extent of deviation happened to the teleporation position. Link and Yuna¡ªwho had just returned from the dreadful ce¡ªhad yet to get over their fear. Momentster, Link stretched his hands out and brought out a piece of spider silk. This was his gain from this trip! Chapter 129: Return! Witness of the Myth!

Chapter 129: Return! Witness of the Myth!

The piece of spider silk was lustrous and translucent, emitting an aura that did not belong to this world. Even space seemed to warp because of it as the heretical and strange aura spread. Yuna had been concentrating her energy earlier to resist the invasion of the God of Evil¡¯s aura. Hence, she was not aware of Link¡¯s little trick. Seeing this piece of spider silk now, she couldn¡¯t help but part her red lips slightly. Surprise was written all over her holy face! ¡°This is...¡± Yuna shut her mouth timely. Existences at the tier of the gods couldn¡¯t beprehended, deduced, or have their names mentioned. Doing any of this could attract their attention. Link did not exin further. He only nodded lightly, indicating his affirmation. Yuna was even more shocked in her heart. It was as though a huge rock¡ªweighing 1,000 jin¡ªhad been thrown into theke that was her heart, stirring up a great ssh! Her master had actually pulled out the God of Evil¡¯s hair and returned alive! One had to know that the other party was a god. Every god of them had staggering power! Following Link¡¯s gaze, the information of this piece of spider silk also entered Link¡¯s mind. [Spider God¡¯s Silk] Grade: Myth-grade material Introduction: Silk of the Spider God, As Nakya. It is also a portion of the bridge between the physical world and the Dreands. ... A touch of joy rose in Link¡¯s heart. As expected, it was indeed a Myth-grade material. Link really looked forward to knowing what the grade of the item¡ªwhich he would ultimately get after the material underwent [Supreme Blessing]¡ªwould be! But Link did not use [Supreme Blessing] on the spider silk immediately. This area was too strange; it actually caused him and Yuna to fall into the Dreands. It wouldn¡¯t be toote to check his gains after getting to a safe ce first. Just this piece of God of Evil¡¯s silk was already a gain that the average person could not imagine. In the altar¡¯s surroundings, many of the aberrated creatures¡¯ limbs still remained after being burned by the holy mes. They gleamed with a jet-ck cold light. These were pretty good materials as well. Due toing from Stage Five Spiderhuman High Priests, their firmness and might both far surpassedmonality. Moreover, after being purified once by Yuna using holy mes, the pollution it caused to the human body was within an eptable range. If it were to be handed to those with [Craftsman] professions, they would certainly be able to forge some pretty good chaotic equipment. Of course, it would certainly be no match for Link¡¯s [Mask of the Faceless]. But at the current stage, it was already difficult for [Doomsday Online] yers to be fully armed. Link put all those huge chelicerae into the system backpack one by one, intending to toss them to Fatty Lu Da when he got back. The few spider eye gems that had brought him and Yuna into the Dreands earlier were all crushed now. There were only threads of aura remaining. These few gems had probably been tainted by the God of Evil¡¯s aura, so they had the ability to open the Dreands¡¯ passageway. However, they could only do so once. The God of Evil¡¯s statue was destroyed, and the source of its aura in this area had already vanished. The suppression and feeling of twistedness¡ªwhich the basement¡¯s second level gave one¡ªinstantly depleted sharply. But the flesh-made ground and ceiling¡ª¡ªthese features were already deeply aberrated¡ªdid not return to their original state. The God of Evil¡¯s aura had semi-permanently changed this ce. Link and Yuna walked down the altar. The corpses¡¯ stench was still strong. They surveyed this space that was covered in humans bones and limbs, and a hint of disgust shed across both their faces. So many people had lost their lives because of the ck Dragon Gang. If Undead creatures were a ne invasion¡ªa cmity¡ªthen the scene before their eyes would be human evil through and through! Cmities were difficult to predict, while human evils couldn¡¯t be forgiven! The ck Dragon Gang¡¯s existence was a mistake! ¡°Yuna, release holy mes. Let them rest in peace.¡± Finally, Link let out a sigh and left this space of sin with a solemn countenance. Golden holy mes zed, burning down the massive altar. Expressions of deliverance seemed to emerge on those broken corpses¡¯ faces. It was also right then that a system notification suddenly sounded in Link¡¯s mind. ¡°Ding! Detected that you have faced a mythical creature and returned safely.¡± ¡°As you are the first yer on Blue Star to face a mythical creature, you have acquired a title, [Witness of the Myth]!¡± ¡°A world-wide announcement will be made! Do you need your personal details concealed?¡± After listening to the system¡¯s voice, Link¡¯s footsteps faltered slightly, and the corner of his lips could not help curving up slightly. He actually acquired a title again! The [Fearless Pathfinder] title that Link had obtained previously... The title skill that it gave him was rather awesome. One could even say that if it weren¡¯t for the [Fearless] passive, Link¡ªwho¡¯d faced the God of Evil¡ªcertainly would¡¯ve aberrated. His body and spirit would either turn into the Spider God¡¯s food or fall into endless madness and gradually die out. It could be said that, having tasted the marrow, Link¡¯s longing for its savor grew. Now that he had gotten a title again¡ªeven being the calm man that he was¡ªhe could not help feeling a speck of heat rise in his heart. ¡°Conceal personal details,¡± replied Link via his thoughts. He then began examining the effects that came with the title. [Witness of the Myth] Introduction: Person who has faced the gods and discerned a corner of the universe¡¯s cruel truth. To be a defiler, godyer who destroys the gods, or to grovel and worship at the gods¡¯ feet, offering your own faith like a reptile... Additional skill 1: [Facing the Myth] (Passive Skill): You have understood a portion of the universe¡¯s truth. When facing mythical creatures, you are immune to 30% of the physical and magic damage received, and damage is increased by 50%! Additional Skill 2: [God¡¯s Aura] (Passive Skill): You, who have been stained by the god¡¯s aura, have gained an exceptional ability. In battle, you can release a godly aura, causing awe in creatures lower than Myth-grade. (Has a chance of triggering rigidity, fear, lowered damage, madness, and more negative effects.) ... After seeing this title¡¯s effects, a hint of confusion shed involuntarily through Link¡¯s eyes. These two passive skills were indeed awesome, but they seemed to contain hints of wanting to make him a godyer. Increased damage and partial immunity to mythical creatures... It truly made him unable to help but overthink. But Link wasn¡¯t fearful. He had some unhappy memories with both the God of Death and the Spider God. Thus, he also felt it would be good to be a godyer. However, Link also understood that he certainly still had a very long way to go. After all, his current level was still Stage Four. Although he had killed arge number of monsters, Link required an abnormallyrge amount of EXP to level up because he had dual professions¡ªone which was also a Taboo-grade one! Link pondered on while walking out of the building with Yuna. At this time, a world-wide announcement also sounded in all[Doomsday Online] yers¡¯ minds. [The Blue Star¡¯s first yer to face the gods, learn a corner of the universe¡¯s cruel truth, and return safely has appeared! Person who faced the gods: XXX, Profession: Death Judge!] Boom! All of a sudden, this announcement could be said to have shaken Blue Star! Countless people were frozen then and there¡ªas if struck by lightning¡ªunable to utter a word! Everyone¡ªwho was originally watching Link and Yuna walk out of the building and looking full of joy and excitement¡ªwas also stunned at that moment! Both Qiao Ruowei and Luo Xingyao were a little dazed. Confusion was also written all over the No Retreat Army soldiers¡¯ faces! What situation is this?! Was there really a God of Evil inside the building?! City Master Link faced that God of Evil? Chapter 130: The World Is Stirring! Twilight of the Apocalyptic World!

Chapter 130: The World Is Stirring! Twilight of the Apocalyptic World!

¡°A world-wide announcement again! There was actually someone who encountered the gods! Could it be City Master Link?¡± ¡°Those are gods! Every one of them possesses inconceivable strength! Has City Master Link defeated a god?¡± ¡°Defeated a god? How can that be!¡± ¡°It can¡¯t be that coincidental! Has the God of Evil appeared in other ces other than here?¡± ... A storm had been set off in the No Retreat Army soldiers¡¯ hearts. Thekes that were their hearts were turned upside down! Everyone looked full of surprise and could not help eximing out loud! Qiao Ruowei and Luo Xingyao¡ªwho were aware that Link was the [Death Judge]¡ªhad their red lips slightly parted, feeling shocked in their hearts. Surprise was written all over the two pretty faces, revealing the loveliness and innocence theycked during their usual calm and efficient states. ¡°Lord encountered the God of Evil?¡± ¡°Lord could actually face the God of Evil and return safely?¡± ¡°Could it be that the Lord is already capable of contending with the God of Evil?!¡± Question after question emerged in both their hearts. But after going through the apocalyptic world¡¯s tests, the two of them weren¡¯t sweet and foolish girls any longer. They did not directly voice their questions, afraid of exposing Link¡¯s secret. After all, not many were aware of Link¡¯s identity as [Death Judge] at the current moment. At the tip of their tongues, the many questions only became: ¡°Lord, are you alright?¡± Link shook his head coolly, indicating that he was fine. He swept a nce at the surprised No Retreat Army¡¯s soldiers and did not give an exnation. He only wore a quiet smile. ¡°The altar and the statue¡ªwhich were the source of the God of Evil¡¯s aura¡ªhave both been destroyed.¡± Once his words fell, Link took the lead in heading outside. Presently, Zhao Yongkang happened toe hurrying with another No Retreat Army team. Zhao Yongkang¡¯s eyes were wide¡ªlike a bull¡¯s eyes¡ªas he examined Link up and down. ¡°City Master Link, the [Death Judge] mentioned in the world-wide announcement can¡¯t be you, can it?¡± ¡°Even after facing the God of Evil, you actually don¡¯t even have the slightest injury on you! If City Master Link is that [Death Judge], he would truly be an extraordinary person. He has already gone on the world-wide announcements twice!¡± Link shot a nce at Zhao Yongkang and did not respond to Zhao Yongkang¡¯s guess. He only said peacefully, ¡°The matter has been resolved. If there are no other problems, I will be bringing my people back. Also, Chief Zhao, do properly consider what I said previously.¡± Link patted Zhao Yongkang¡¯s shoulders, turned, and left, only leaving a slender back view to the surprised crowd behind. Qiao Ruowei, Luo Xingyao, and Yuna followed closely behind. When Link and the others¡¯ figures had disappeared from their sights, the group of No Retreat Army warriors still stood dazedly in the same spot. ¡°City Master Link is so cold and so experienced!¡± ¡°Whether he is that [Death Judge] or not, I am in love! In love!¡± A female warrior from the No Retreat Army revealed an infatuated smile. A young man next to Zhao Yongkang also could not help speaking up. ¡°Chief Zhao, do you think City Master Link is that [Death Judge] or not?¡± Zhao Yongkang squinted his eyes, and an obscure glow glimmered in his tiger eyes. ¡°This isn¡¯t something you should ask. Nobody can definitively speak about this matter; get the brothers to stop making wild guesses. Also, gather everyone as soon as possible. We are going to have a meeting.¡± ¡°Brother Zhao, do we need everyone to be present? What are we holding a meeting for exactly?¡± asked someone. Zhao Yongkang did not hesitate. He said in a low voice, ¡°Discussing the No Retreat Army¡¯s future path and whether we should join Unfallen City or not.¡± Upon hearing him, all of the No Retreat Army soldiers¡¯ eyes lit up. They had seen Link¡¯s capabilities and grace. He had long earned the recognition and respect of many warriors. ... At the same time, the entire world had also been ignited by that world announcement. The entire world was totally in a frenzy! Faced the gods and returned safely¡ªthis was not something the average powerhouse could achieve! This world announcement was even more jaw-dropping than the previous world announcement of Link killing a Stage Five boss. It was unbelievable! Countless people marveled at this, their inner hearts full of shock! ¡°[Death Judge] has actually gone on the world announcements again! This is already the second time, isn¡¯t it!?¡± ¡°Faced the gods; does he already possess the ability to counter gods?!¡± ¡°Damn it! What a pity that the current Inte is paralyzed; otherwise, I would definitely conduct a cyber manhunt of that powerhouse. This is an elephant¡¯s leg[1]!¡± ¡°Such a powerhouse! If only he can join our gang!¡± ¡°What!? The [Death Judge] has directly faced the gods this time?¡± ¡°Goodd! Even the Undead creatures are already nothing to him, is it? He has already started looking for gods to practice his moves?¡± ¡°[Death Judge]... Is he a monster?!¡± ... The whole world was in a sea of mors and chaos. Most importantly, this hade after the monster siege happened. The Undead army had breached countless human cities and survivor camps not long ago. Corpses were everywhere, and there was so much blood that pestles could float! Many powerhouses died. Their corpses were turned into Undead, while the people who survived by luck fled into the wilderness with their blood and tears dripping. After all, cities that could hold the fort like Unfallen City were in the minority. In fact, from the tenth day of the apocalyptic world onwards, the shrieks of humankind had never ceased. So much so that some cities were still in arduous battles! This world announcement¡¯s appearance finally allowed many people¡ªwho were deep in despair¡ªto see that bit of hope. It was like the light of dawn¡ªvery precious. On the battlefields where Undead snarled and corpses littered all over. A human powerhouse was grabbed by an Abomination¡¯s hand. The immense pressure crushed his chest, almost suffocating him. Broken organs continuously surged out from the corner of his mouth. However, he continued to roar hysterically. ¡°Damn monsters, just you wait! There is a powerhouse among us humans. He can already contend with the gods! There will be a day where he will ughter all of you! Haha! My human race produces outstanding people in every generation. We will avenge these mountains of corpses and seas of blood!¡± As his words fell, this middle-aged powerhouse actually spurred his inner strength and self-destructed then and there! A roar exploded, and that Abomination¡¯s massive body was ripped apart by the terrifying impact! The countenance of the Evil General thatmanded this portion of the Undead army became even colder. He only slowly spat out three words through his teeth: ¡°Is that so?¡± ... In the wilderness, a few humans gathered together, but they didn¡¯t dare to light up a fire. They were afraid of exposing their location and could only huddle together for warmth. A youth¡ªwhose face was still quite young¡ªclenched his fists with a deathly grip and wiped away the tears on his face. His parents and good friends had all been sacrificed in the siege, only he lived. As he stared at the people around him¡ªwho all wore looks of fear¡ªthe youth clenched his teeth, swearing that he definitely had to be a person as powerful as that [Death Judge] and wipe out all Undead! During this siege conducted by the Undead army, there were still many, many other survivors like him... Countless people treated the [Death Judge] as their idol or hope. They even referred to him as the twilight of the apocalyptic world. And at this moment. The initiator of everything, Link, had already returned to Unfallen City. Following the City Master¡¯s return, streaks of light lit up in the skies above Unfallen City! This was the light of order! [1] The Chinese saying has the phrase ¡®riding one¡¯s coattails¡¯ written as ¡®hugging someone¡¯s thigh¡¯ Chapter 131: Order Descends! Talisman of Eternal Sleep!

Chapter 131: Order Descends! Talisman of Eternal Sleep!

The glow of the sun shone as rainbow-colored light radiated all over the city, making Unfallen City look like a fairnd. Sounds of peaceful music also resounded in the air, ringing in the ears of everyone in the city. There also seemed to be an Empyrean Fairy dancing in the air and dropping soft petals over the city. This was a phenomenon created by the descent of Order! The siege war that belonged to Unfallen City had ended for quite a while. The City Master¡¯s return and the descent of Order signified that Unfallen City had been promoted to one of humanity¡¯s home cities, opening a new chapter in this era. Everyone in the city listened to the sound of Order and was immersed in the various phenomena, intoxicated smiles showing on their faces. Someone sighed and sincerely said, ¡°It¡¯s sofortable! Is this the descent of Order?¡± Strands of the orderly aura also blended into everyone¡¯s body without a trace at this moment. The attributes of everyone in Unfallen City were slightly boosted. Even some of the incurable, hidden wounds and old diseases left from the battles also disappeared at this time. This could be regarded as another benefit of the city being promoted to a home city. Listening to the sound of Order and bathing in the light of Order could slightly improve the physiques of everyone in the city. It was somewhat like how one¡¯s sess could improve the lives of everyone connected to them. This was also the reason why many people wanted to join the home cities. Not only was it safer, but one would also be closer to Order. Link was also bathed in the light of Order at this moment. As the City Master, he received a greater enhancement, and all his stats were probably improved by about 50 points. In the apocalypse, each attribute point increase wasn¡¯t something that was easy to achieve. This was already a big gain. The 50-point increase in each attribute was almost the same as his [Supreme Divine Envoy] passive, simr to the effect of increasing by one level. Moreover, Link¡¯s mental fatigue¡ªwhich had umted because of the long periods of battle¡ªwas also fully wiped away. At the same time, a system notification sounded, magnificent and majestic! [Congrattions to Unfallen City for winning the siege war and being promoted to a first-level home city!] Everyone in the city cheered and enjoyed the joy of promotion! This also meant that they finally had a ce that belonged to them in the apocalypse and gained a firm foothold! Standing on the city wall, Link couldn¡¯t help but raise his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile. There definitely weren¡¯t many cities in the world that could stand firm in front of the undead army and get promoted to a first-level home city. However, this wasn¡¯t the end but a new beginning. A first-level home city would still encounter various crises again. If it survived, it could be upgraded to a second-level home city; the scope of Order¡¯s protection would also expand ordingly. In Link¡¯s previous life, the five major home cities in the human alliance were the five most powerful cities with the highest level! Each one of those cities epassed thousands of miles of territory and could amodate tens of millions, even hundreds of millions of living beings! Link¡¯s eyes shed. He naturally wouldn¡¯t be satisfied with only these current achievements, but he wanted to continue to improve and look to the future. After calming down, Link sensed his own void energy. He soon discovered that he could soon make a new summon. Link was at Stage Four, Level 8 now. By the time he was Stage Four, Level 9 or 10, the umted energy would probably be about enough for a new summon. Due to possessing a Taboo-grade profession, the amount of EXP Link required to level up was really too much. Especially starting from Stage Four¡ªit required a huge amount of EXP just to advance by one level. Link killed many powerful monsters in the past two days and had only just reached a high level in Stage Four. However, the advantages were quite obvious too. This could be seen from how Link easily overpowered most of the Stage Five enemies and was even able to fight against Stage Six existences. This made Link look quite forward to the new summon, not knowing what race the fourth partner summoned would be. Besides, the next promotion to Stage Five was also an extremely critical stage! A Stage Five powerhouse¡ªalso known as a Star-rank powerhouse in Link¡¯s previous life¡ªwas considered to have begun the climb to the stage of sanctification. Advancing to Stage Five not only required a huge amount of EXP, but it also required a preliminary grasp of the nomological power. This was so that Link could build a domain that belonged to him. This was just like how one of the more powerful Stage Five bosses¡ªProphet of Death¡ªpossessed the domain of silence. If a Stage Five being couldn¡¯t build their own domain, they would only be at the bottom of all Stage Five existences¡ªeven if they were lucky enough to break through to Stage Five. They practically had no hope of bing a top [Doomsday Online] yer. Other than that, there were also differences in different domains¡¯ strength. This difference might even be as far apart as heaven and earth. Some powerhouses could have multiple domains, and theirbat power far exceeded average beings of the same stage. The formation of a domain was rted to each person¡¯s own characteristics. But for Link, it wasn¡¯t difficult to master part of a nomological power and construct the domain. After all, he had experienced it in his previous life. His understanding of the Void was very profound. But what Link pursued was the pinnacle of strength. This meant that it was best for him to start learning how to use different nomological powers. I need to prepare well and study nomological powers other than that of the Void, Link said silently in his heart. As his mind was thinking of this, Link took out an object. It was a bunch of spider silk, blooming with a smooth luster and also a strange aura. It was the Myth-grade material¡ªone of the great gains of Link¡¯s trip¡ª[Spider God¡¯s Silk]! With a thought in Link¡¯s heart, [Supreme Blessing] was instantly activated at this moment. A zing light wrapped the spider silk in Link¡¯s hand and slowly floated into the air. The light soon faded, and a talisman that exuded a radiant brilliance appeared before his eyes. The talisman was woven from dense spider silk¡ªwith a spider-like symbol outlined in the middle¡ªand it exuded a dreamlike aura. It felt as though staring at it for a long time would make a person fall into an eternal dream! The talisman¡¯s appearance alone was quite extraordinary! Link immediately checked its attributes. [Talisman of Eternal Sleep] Rank: Super God (Upgradeable)! Attribute: Chaos Introduction: A talisman woven from the silk of the Spider God. It is a part of the dreand bridge and possesses the power of eternal sleep. Additional Skill 1: [Dreand] (Passive Skill): The wearer will be protected by the Dreands, and spiritual power will be increased by 200%. The wearer can also recover their own state and heal their injuries through the process of backtracking in the Dreands. Cooldown Duration: 24 hours. (Note: The backtracked time cannot exceed 24 hours.) Additional Skill 2: [Eternal Sleep] (Active Skill): The wearer can induce eternal sleep on an enemy unit. Under the effect of eternal sleep¡¯s power, the enemy unit has a 10% chance of falling into an eternal sleep, or their attributes are weakened and are affected by negative effects such as sleepiness and dullness. (Note: Monsters that fall into eternal sleep will bepletely controlled by the Talisman of Eternal Sleep¡¯s holder.) Additional Skill 3: [Bridge of Dreams] (Active Skill): The wearer can mobilize the power in the Talisman of Eternal Sleep to connect to the Dreands and cross the huge gap between the real world and the Dreands. ... After seeing the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep]¡¯s attributes, Link couldn¡¯t help feeling a little speechless. This talisman was truly very powerful! The passive skill, [Dreand], was a godly restoration-type skill that could backtrack the user¡¯s state! That was to say, no matter what kind of injury Link received in the future, Link could go back to his best state within the past 24 hours as long as he entered the Dreands! [Eternal Sleep] even had a chance of making the opponent fall into a long, long sleep. This effect was absolutely huge in battle! This time, not only did Link obtain a title¡ª[Witness of the Myth]¡ªbut he also gained the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep]. This could really be described as ¡®making a huge gain!¡¯ Chapter 132: Rebirth From a Drop of Blood? The gaze of the Abyss!

Chapter 132: Rebirth From a Drop of Blood? The gaze of the Abyss!

Putting away the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep], Link tilted his head slightly, looking at Xue Linglong, Yang Xuerou, and the others. He found that these people looked at him with surprise and hesitation as if they had something to say. ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Link asked calmly. Yang Xuerou looked at him with concern, furrowed her eyebrows, and spoke with a worried expression. ¡°You encountered a god during your rescue of the No Retreat Army this time? Are you guys alright?¡± Luo Xingyao and Qiao Ruowei both looked at Link subconsciously. After all, he was the person who had truly met a god face to face. Link just smiled and shook his head, indicating that he was okay. Fatty Lu Da was outspoken and immediately gave a thumbs-up as he eximed, ¡°Brother Link, you are too awesome! You can even contend with the gods now?!¡± Luo Xinghe also had a look of admiration on his face as he said, ¡°Lord, you are the only one in the world who appeared on the world announcements up to this point. What¡¯s more, you appeared twice! You are really amazing!¡± Obviously, these confidants¡ªwho knew Link was the [Death Judge]¡ªwere also shocked by Link¡¯s previous world announcement! That¡¯s a god! Although the world today had changed drastically, who else had seen an existence of that level? Not even to mention facing a god, just the aura that exuded from a god was enough to bring destruction. One such case was the abnormal changes that urred in the No Retreat Army¡¯s base. Link was also well aware of such existences¡¯ power, and he solemnly warned, ¡°I am just lucky to have returned in time. That¡¯s all. Godly existences are still out of reach for us.¡± Yang Xuerou, Luo Xinghe, and the others calmed down from their excitement when they heard these words. They felt fortunate that Link and the others were still safe now. But being able to face the gods and return safely was enough to show their lord¡¯s strength! Seraphim Yuna¡ªstanding behind Link¡ªhad a strange expression on her holy face, and her eyes twitched slightly. It was indeed a lucky return. Her master even dared to take the God of Evil¡¯s spider silk. If they were caught, it would be impossible to imagine what would happen... After Luo Xingyao briefly talked about their experience in the No Retreat Army¡¯s base, the chatting ended. Link asked Yang Xuerou about the situation in Unfallen City. After all, the Blood Demon Gang hade here and was thenpletely wiped out. Yang Xuerou stretched out her jade-like slender fingers and pushed a few strands of hair¡ªwhich had jumped off her temples¡ªbehind her ears. She then began the report. Her hair was tied into a high ponytail, and her slender jade neck was like a noble swan. This made her look capable and beautiful. In a deep voice, she soon recounted the process of killing Bloodseeker with the Legend-grade Forbidden Curse¡ª[Forged?Heaven¡¯s Wrath Thunder Punishment]. At the side, Xue Linglong also took out the broken dagger left by Bloodseeker and handed it to Link. When Link was away, Yang Xuerou was responsible for most of the things happening in Unfallen City. This kind-hearted female teacher also showed her capable and decisive side after her experiences in the apocalypse the past few days. ¡°Good job.¡± Link received the dagger and expressed affirmation and encouragement to them. Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyao¡ªthis brother and sister pair¡¯s eyes were slightly red, obviously thinking of their dead family. They had a bloody and deep grudge against Bloodseeker. Now that they had their vengeance, and the enemy was even beheaded by Luo Xinghe himself, both of them felt happy and emotional in their hearts. Those rtives wouldn¡¯t be able toe back to life after all. But fortunately, they had already killed the enemy themselves! Luo Xinghe patted Luo Xingyao on the back and saidfortingly, ¡°If Father, Mother, and the spirits of our uncles can see all this in heaven, they should be able to rest in peace now.¡± Luo Xingyao nodded and looked at Link, her beautiful eyes filled with gratitude. Luo Xinghe did the same. Both of them knew that the reason they could kill Bloodseeker was due to this man in front of them. Without Link¡¯s help and support, without the training in the City of the Undead and the lightning Forbidden Curse, they would have no idea how much longer it would take them to kill Bloodseeker. Letting Bloodseeker live one more day in the world was akin to sprinkling salt on their wounded hearts, which was sphemy against their dead family members. ¡°Lord, now that we have avenged our grievances, our lives are now yours. From now on, we will serve you wholly and even die for you!¡± Luo Xinghe solemnly knelt on one knee and spoke with his palm hugging his fist[1]. Luo Xingyao also knelt on one knee toward Link, her expression firm. Link just patted their shoulders and said, ¡°Live on well and create a city that never falls with me.¡± ¡°Yes!¡± The two siblings nodded heavily. After soothing the siblings¡¯ emotions, Link checked the broken dagger in his hand. Even though this dagger was broken, it still exuded a strong aura. Its grade was probably very high, at least a piece of Legend-grade equipment. Suddenly, Link frowned slightly. The dagger was extremely scarlet, and the blood-like thing flowing within it made him sense something amiss. With the enhancements to his mental spirit from the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep] and [Fearless Pathfinder], Link¡¯s senses were much sharper than that of normal people. ¡°There¡¯s a problem with this dagger.¡± Link narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold light shed in them. Link took out the [Mask of the Faceless] and covered his face with it. A horrifying and chaotic aura instantly rippled from Link¡¯s body. There seemed to be a faint whisper. It kept on sounding, leading people to fall into madness or expounding the cruel reality in the universe. ¡°This...¡± Xue Linglong and the others showed a look of surprise on their faces. What could be wrong with a broken dagger? Could it be that it is a special ¡®time bomb?¡¯ However, the next scene made them even more dumbfounded. They saw translucent tentacles¡ªwhich seemed half-virtual and half-corporeal¡ªappeared from Link¡¯s entire body. The tentacles prated the dagger, and a drop of fresh, scarlet blood was then taken out from the dagger! The already broken dagger instantly fell apart as the drop of blood was removed from it. That drop of fresh, scarlet blood stayed suspended in the air, rippling with blood-red light. Through this drop of blood, it was as if they could see a sea of blood and mountains of corpses floating in it! A sinisterugh suddenly sounded at this moment. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that you would still end up discovering this!¡± The voice stunned everyone. Luo Xingyao and Luo Xinghe¡¯s expressions even changed dramatically! This was Bloodseeker¡¯s voice! He¡¯s still alive? Link frowned and questioned, ¡°Bloodseeker? No, he should be dead. Who are you exactly?¡± Link could perceive that this drop of blood contained an aura different from that of Bloodseeker. It was iparably deep and vast; it was an aura that not even a Stage Five or Stage Six being could possess! It might even have reached the level of a Sage! It should be noted that only terrifying beings at Stage Eight and above could be called Semi-Sages or Quasi-Sages! ¡°Humph! An ant-like being like you doesn¡¯t deserve to know my name! You just need to know that I am here to take your life!¡± ¡°That trash, Bloodseeker, is really useless. I gave him power and treasures, yet he was actually beheaded before he even saw you in person! Fine then; I shalle and clean up the mess and personally crush you¡ªan ant that wanted to touch the Epochal Ruins¡ªinto pieces. You should know that there are some things that you can¡¯t touch!¡± Link¡¯s heart shivered with coldness when he heard this. The Epochal Ruins... Could he be referring to the Epochal Ruins in the wilderness? The person speaking now should be the existence behind Bloodseeker! A Sage from the Abyss! [1] A kind of salute in ancient China. Chapter 133: Sage-Stage Existence! Truth!

Chapter 133: Sage-Stage Existence! Truth!

¡°Tremble, ants! With your deaths, bring me a moment of joy!¡± Amidst the deep voice, an overwhelming pressure swept over the ce¡ªmightier and heavier than even the might of heaven! The air seemed to be stagnant, and the temperature dropped suddenly! The wind and clouds in the sky suddenly stirred, and even space itself seemed to be trembling! This aura that brought chills to living beings enveloped the entire Unfallen City. The originally bright, cloudless sky became dark and depressing instantly! It was like a piece of ink had quickly bloomed, and the entire sky became pitch ck. Not a single bit of light could be seen! From a distance, it looked like a huge mouth that was going to swallow the world! Then, it looked like an abyss thatid above Unfallen City! Such a terrifying phenomenon immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the city! The city¡ªwhich was originally immersed in peace and shrouded in orderly light¡ªsuddenly became precarious! Unfallen Cit¡ªwhich had been promoted to a first-level home city¡ªsuddenly seemed to be a small boat in a vast stormy sea. There was a crisis of overturning at any time! Everyone in the city showed surprise and trepidation on their faces at this moment! Some low-stage yers even shuddered uncontrobly, their legs shaking like chaff being threshed! Under the horrifying atmosphere, all of them sensed some sort of fatal crisis! It felt like the God of Death¡¯s scythe was right behind them! The [Doomsday Online] yers¡¯ faces turned pale, and their hearts fiercely shrank as if a cold palm was grabbing them tightly! Even chills rose up from the soles of many people¡¯s feet, reaching all the way to their foreheads. Cold sweat dripped from their bodies like rain, soaking their clothes wet. When blown by the wind, the chill even seeped into their bone marrows! Exmations and shouts instantly sounded throughout, and the entire city was no longer peaceful! ¡°This... Why did such a phenomenon suddenly appear in the sky?!¡± ¡°Has the sky changed? Why do I feel like I am being stared at by some extremely terrifying wild beast and that I might die at any moment?¡± ¡°This aura and this power... Is there a terrible monster appearing? Or is a devastating disaster about toe?!¡± The people discussed, their hearts panicking. As for Xue Linglong and the others¡ªwho were in the center of this terrifying aura¡ªtheir expressions changed crazily. The shock in their hearts was like waves in a storm! Fear blew across like the wind and grew wildly in their hearts! As if staring at an endless abyss, Yang Xuerou and the others all felt an indescribable sense of suffocation and danger! At this moment, even people as tough-minded as them also couldn¡¯t help but feel a chill on their backs. The hair on their bodies stood on end, and countless goosebumps appeared on their skin! What level of lifeform must one be to release this kind of pressure and sense of oppression? Just facing the aura alone had already made their scalps numb, and a soul-freezing chill affected them all over. It was like they had fallen into an ice cave! ¡°Is this a Stage Seven abyss monster?¡± asked Luo Xinghe with difficulty, his heart beating wildly. They had encountered Stage Six monsters during the siege war. Although they also felt a strong sense of oppression, it definitely wasn¡¯t as strong as the oppression they felt now! At this instant, they were like insignificant ants that were facing the vastness of the sky. All they could do was shudder and fear! ¡°I¡¯m afraid that even Stage Seven monsters don¡¯t have such a strong aura, right? Is this another god?!¡± Fatty Lu Da¡¯s face was pale. He swallowed his saliva and spoke in a trembling voice. ¡°It¡¯s not a god. This should be a Sage-level existence that is at least Stage Eight and above.¡± Link was still calm andposed. There wasn¡¯t a single trace of fear on his handsome face. There was only coldness on his face. After all, Link was a person who had faced a god directly. Coupled with the [Fearless] passive, it wasn¡¯t possible for a Sage-level existence¡¯s aura to cause mental impact to him. ¡°Stage Eight? Stage Eight existence!¡± Luo Xingyao and the others couldn¡¯t help but suck in a breath of cold air. Stage Eight beings were called Semi-Sages, while Stage Nine beings were true Sages! Regardless of whether it was a Semi-Sage or a true Sage, they were all Sage-level existences. They possessed amazing power and could overlook all other living beings! Those who had yet to reach Sage-level were like ants in front of them! No wonder there was such a terrifying aura exuding from the drop of blood! Sage-level existences were simply beyond the reach of human beings at this period of time! It should be noted that the humans on Blue Star who had reached Stage Five¡ªStar-rank powerhouses¡ªand started the climb to sanctification were already extremely rare, close to none! As for the terrifying Sage-level existences, they could wipe out the current Unfallen City with just a wave of their hands! The fear of death instantly enveloped them and eroded their hearts! ¡°Haha, I am indeed a Sage-level existence, a Stage Eight Semi-Sage! Those below the Sage-level are all ants; you guys should be d that you are going to die in my hands!¡± The deep voice sounded again. The drop of blood¡ªwhich exuded a terrifying aura¡ªbroke free from the tentacles¡¯ shackles and turned into a hideous blood shadow that was several feet tall. Immense blood energy and pressure emitted from it! However, the blood shadow¡ªsuspected to be a Sage-level existence¡ªwasn¡¯t in a hurry to make a move. It seemed to be enjoying this moment, taking the despair and fear of others as pleasure. Link stared at the blood shadow and then suddenlyughed. But due to the [Mask of the Faceless] being on his face, the swirling pattern on the mask distorted when Link smiled. It made Link look a little crazy and hideous. The suddenughter broke the extremely heavy atmosphere. Xue Linglong and the others all looked toward Link, and even the blood shadow¡¯s hideous face seemed to sh with surprise. Link pped his hands and sneered. ¡°Your acting is quite good; I was almost deceived by you.¡± Link¡¯s eyes suddenly became exceedingly sharp, and he said in a deep voice, ¡°It¡¯s impossible for Sage-level existences to descend on Blue Star at this moment!¡± As soon as these words came out, everyone was dazed. They were slightly unable to keep up with Link¡¯s thoughts, and their hearts were full of doubts and surprises! It is impossible for Sage-level existences to descend? Then what¡¯s this in front of them? Moreover, Link clearly said that this was a Sage-level existence earlier! Link continued, ¡°Blue Star has the protection of the¡¯s will, and restrictions that even the gods are afraid of might exist. Hence, even Sage-level existences also can¡¯t vite the rules and descend now.¡± ¡°And you... You should only be a Stage Six existence¡¯s breath or a strand of will. The intensity of your current form definitely won¡¯t exceed Stage Six. Stage Six¡ªthis should be the limit that Blue Star can tolerate at the current stage.¡± These wordsnded sonically. This answer was partly from the conclusions that Link drew after encountering the Stage Six Dark Sage and the Spider God, but it was also partly his own guesses. After all, even a godly existence like the Spider God had only created three Stage Five Spiderhuman High Priests! Even the gods had to follow certain rules and restrictions. They couldn¡¯te to Blue Star in person. It was still too early for Sages to break the rules and truly descend, even if they wanted to do so! The current Blue Star was a ce that was gradually opening up, or rather, gradually being unsealed! And [Doomsday Online] was to provide all human beings an opportunity to make a rapid transition in lifeform level! Link¡¯s words made everyone so shocked that they were unable to speak. Even the blood shadow froze for a while! Link¡¯s words were obviously true, and they had hit the blood shadow at the spot that hurt most! Chapter 134: Suppression of a Sage! God鈥檚 Aura!

Chapter 134: Suppression of a Sage! God¡¯s Aura!

¡°Human, you are indeed very exceptional. You could actually discern a portion of the truth at this point in time! You are right; I have not arrived with my true form. This is merely a body that a thread of my spiritual imprint left in the dagger transmogrified using Bloodseeker¡¯s soul blood.¡± ¡°Although it is not my true form that has arrived, it is more than sufficient to destroy you people!¡± The blood shadow slowly spoke after freezing for a moment. He still took his time as if he possessed great confidence in easily suppressing the masses! The blood shadow was only a thread of spiritual imprint, and he was only at Stage Six. This was because Blue Star only allowed creatures that did not exceed Stage Six to set foot here at this present stage. Otherwise, humans would have encountered some sort of great terror that even the gods had to be wary of. If Sage-level existences truly were to arrive, they would still have to wait until this gradually recovers to a certain stage. However, a Stage Six Sage-level existence certainly wasn¡¯t one that a normal Stage Six monster couldpare to! After all, every creature that could reach Sage-level had undergone the sharpening of a long period of time. They¡¯d longprehended their own rules and many abilities to a rather powerful state. So much so that, in order to reach an even higher level¡ªto advance toward the gods¡ªthe gaps in their every stage had been supplemented during those endless years! It could be said that, for Sage-level existences, every state had been polished till the strongest by them! An ordinary Stage Six powerhouse wouldn¡¯t be able to contend with them at all! Additionally, the blood shadow had long sensed that there currently wasn¡¯t even a Stage Five powerhouse in this city. How would they resist? The blood shadow thought absolutely nothing of the people before him. But Link was considered a surprise! This human could discern a part of the truth at this point in time. The blood shadow was astonished, and he even developed some intention of recruiting him. The blood shadow watched Link and said slowly, ¡°You are way more powerful than Bloodseeker. I can give you a chance to live as long as you follow me and be my servant.¡± Link¡¯s gaze was cold as he spoke with a cold smile. ¡°Are you done? You can go die now!¡± Since it wasn¡¯t the blood shadow¡¯s Stage Six Semi-Sage true form that had arrived, but just a thread of spiritual imprint¡ªwhose capabilities was at Stage Six¡ªhe couldn¡¯t boast before Link. After all, Link had killed a Stage Six monster before! Even if a Stage Six Sage-level existence was extraordinary, Link had no fear! He had significantly improvedpared to when he had killed the Dark Sage previously! Within seconds, the [King¡¯s Sword] had already appeared in Link¡¯s hands. He directly faced the Sage¡¯s suppression, and his white robes fluttered freely. It made him look like an immortal that had been banished to the mortal world! The [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique] was instantlyunched! Streaks of swift and fierce sword energy emerged from Link and swirled around him as if they were weing the king of swords! Extremely biting sword intent even charged into the sky, tearing out a nk space in the thick, dark clouds in the sky! Link had torn a hole through the strong suppression in the area! He was like a peerless sword immortal who hade stepping on the long river of time, elegant yet fierce. His presence was apodictic! Xue Linglong, Yang Xuerou, Qiao Ruowei, and the other girls stared at that slender figure and handsome profile. Their gazes involuntarily became rather dazed. Fatty Lu Da roused himself and shouted, ¡°It turns out your capabilities are only that of Stage Six, yet you¡¯re still pretending to be an all-capable one! Watch how your Sir Link takes care of you!¡± The nervous atmosphere was significantly relieved at once. Luo Xinghe, Luo Xingyao, and the others also tightened their grips on their weapons, preparing to fight! The blood shadow watched the crowd¡ªwho¡¯d recovered their fighting will¡ªand revealed a hideous smile. ¡°Laughable! Still making a vain attempt to shake a Sage; truly overconfident!¡± His gaze watched Link coldly, and he shook his head, seemingly feeling regretful for Link. ¡°You¡¯ve lost your only chance to live; all of you will die now!¡± As his throaty words fell, the blood shadow lifted his hand. As the Sage¡¯s aura shook, a terrifying suppression rose once more! Many low-level cultivators in Unfallen City had actually been directly pressed down to the ground, lying prone under this frightening suppression. They could only tremble! Even Xue Linglong, Luo Xingyao, and the other Stage Four powerhouses found it difficult to withstand this fearsome aura. It felt like mountains were pressing down on them. Their bodies were stiff, and even moving became unusually difficult! Beneath Sage-level, all were nobodies! Although the blood shadow was just a wisp of imprint, the Semi-Sage suppression he revealed was still matchlessly dreadful! Link had the [Fearless] passive, so he was immune to the majority of the mental impact and was still alright. With an aloof countenance, Link immediately activated one of [Witness of the Myth]¡¯s skills! [God¡¯s Aura]: You¡ªwho have been stained by the god¡¯s aura¡ªhave gained an exceptional ability! In battle, you can release a god¡¯s aura, causing awe in creatures lower than Myth-grade. (Has a chance of triggering rigidity, fear, lowered damage, madness, and more negative effects.) An aura countless times scarier than the Sage-level suppression burst out from Link¡¯s body! The Sage-level suppression that originally nketed the entire Unfallen City was directly ripped apart like a thin sheet of paper! The dark clouds in the sky were all torn up, revealing the original cloudless blue sky! The present Link was like a god that hade to the. He overlooked the world, and just his presence was enough to make the heavens tremble! With the terrifying suppression, even the blood shadow couldn¡¯t help but bow his head! This was not respect, but a suppression that came from the differences in life level! [One must not look directly at a god]! Presently, the blood shadow¡¯s face was full of shock; tempestuous waves had risen in his heart! ¡°How can this be?! You are clearly just a Stage Four human! How can a mere human radiate a god¡¯s aura?¡± The blood shadow¡¯s appalled exmations resounded in the area; he could barely believe everything that happened before his eyes! But this was the reality. No matter how hard the blood shadow tried, he couldn¡¯t lift his lowered head. He could only look up at Link through his peripheral vision. Getting such a result during his first usage of [God¡¯s Aura] made Link very satisfied. But at the same time, Link also felt his mental strength depleting rapidly. It depleted even faster than when he employed [Cirrus Limbs]. If it weren¡¯t for [Talisman of Eternal Sleep]¡ªwhich boosted his mental strength by 200%¡ªusing these two abilities simultaneously would truly be quite taxing for him. The Sage¡¯s suppression was crushed by [God¡¯s Aura]. The people of Unfallen City all felt their bodies lighten as the immense sense of suppression vanished, and they all let out a breath. Meanwhile, Qiao Ruowei, Luo Xingyao, and the others¡¯ movements were no longer restricted. A hint of relief shed across their faces while they looked at Link in shock. Their own Lord could actually erase a Sage-level suppression and make the Semi-Sage bow his head? What kind of terrifying capability was this? But when they looked toward Link, Xue Linglong and the others also noticed that they¡¯d subconsciously taken on the postures of looking up or bowing their heads. They couldn¡¯t directly look at Link at all. Although [God¡¯s Aura] mainly targeted the blood shadow, this also made Link simr to a god. People could only look up or bow down to him. Yang Xuerou, Xue Linglong, and the others were even more shocked in their hearts. However, the present situation was not optimistic; they also knew very well what they ought to do. Luo Xingyao quickly shifted her gaze away. Once she lifted her slender fingers, multiple arrows went shooting toward the blood shadow like streams of light! The six-winged angel Yuna also swung her staff. Golden holy light energy mmed toward the blood shadow! Meanwhile, Yang Xuerou swiftly cast several buffs on Link! The battle was about to break out at any moment! Chapter 135: Spiritual Impact! Rage of the Holy Sword!

Chapter 135: Spiritual Impact! Rage of the Holy Sword!

Those who were better at closebat¡ªsuch as Xue Linglong and Qiao Ruowei¡ªalso attacked! The icy spear and de drew closer to the blood shadow! Although their levels weren¡¯tparable to that of the blood shadow, they still wished to do as much as they could upon encountering such a powerful enemy! The [King¡¯s Sword] in Link¡¯s hand bloomed with golden brilliance and became extremely radiant. It was the [Holy Charge] skill! Enveloped by the skill¡¯s radiance, Link was like a golden sword, piercing toward the blood shadow! At this moment, Link also mobilized the surging sword energy around him, which attacked the blood shadow too! The dense sword energy was like a raging river, charging toward the blood shadow with terrifying force! In a sh, the various attacks reached the blood shadow! But at this moment, the blood shadow¡ªtransformed from a Semi-Sage¡¯s spiritual imprint¡ªsuddenly moved too. Due to [God¡¯s Aura]¡¯s influence, the blood shadow lowered his head and waved his hands, making his posture look a little strange. However, the two bloody rays of light that suddenly appeared were scarlet and dazzling as they tore apart the air, causing a sharp st¡ªextremely extraordinary! Boom! The bloody rays of light collided with the iing attacks, causing arge explosion! A terrifying air wave swept through, and the shockwave directly sent Xue Linglong, Luo Xinghe, and the others flying! A monster transformed from a Semi-Sage¡¯s spiritual imprint wasn¡¯t something they could fight against, even if Link¡¯s [God¡¯s Aura] had affected it! The huge gap between the stages almost caused Xue Linglong, Luo Xinghe, and Qiao Ruowei to die instantly! Fortunately, Link¡¯s sword energy and the cirrus limbs¡ªwhich suddenly turned into huge shields¡ªblocked most of the bloody light rays¡¯ damage for them. The three of them fell to the ground hard with bits of fear still remaining on their faces. The blood shadow in front of them was truly too strong! A dazzling brilliance lit up. [Holy Priest] Yang Xuerou cast [Holy Heart¡¤Great Healing Art] on the trio. Link¡¯s calm voice also aptly sounded. ¡°Stay away from this blood shadow. Try to use long-range attack methods.¡± Xue Linglong, Luo Xinghe, and Qiao Ruowei all nodded their heads and backed away. Link¡¯s [Holy Charge] also mmed into the blood shadow¡¯s body, and with a bang, the blood shadow actually exploded directly! However, the battle wasn¡¯t over. The blood shadow¡¯s body parts gathered together very quickly, and he appeared on the ground under the city! The blood shadow said in a cold voice, ¡°There is no forgiveness for offending a Sage!¡± The ground around the blood shadow turned red as his cold voice fell, and even the dark sky was dyed red! This was the domain the blood shadow had built! The domain unfolded, and a strange breath swept over everyone suddenly. Xue Linglong and the others felt that the blood in their body seemed to be out of control and was about to burst out! What¡¯s more, Xue Linglong and the others felt bloodthirst and mania appear within their bodies. Their consciousnesses even became a little fuzzy! And in Link¡¯s field of vision, Luo Xingyao and the others¡¯ eyes suddenly turned red as if they were stained red with blood. They then actually attacked each other. Additionally, strains of a blood mist continuously floated out of their bodies, which were then absorbed by the blood shadow! The cold light in Link¡¯s eyes flickered. He had not yet reached Stage Five, so he couldn¡¯t produce a domain yet. At this moment, blood mist floated out from his body as well, and his body weakened gradually. But due to [Fearless]¡¯s effects, Link¡¯s spirit wasn¡¯t affected. He called Yuna with his thoughts, and he immediately activated the [Bead of thunder Punishment]¡¯s [Territory of Thunder] simultaneously! Yuna immediately waved her staff, and holy light appeared like water waves, rippling in all directions with her as the center. [Holy Light Purification]! Luo Xingyao and the others seemed to have a warm current flowing through their bodies, and their vague consciousnesses were slightly awakened. Right at this moment. Winds and clouds surged, and dark clouds gathered, covering the sky and the sun! Silver electric currents flickered in the dark clouds, drawing out a huge mysterious rune that covered Unfallen City! Thunder snakes sprang from the clouds and danced wildly in the air. Lightning appeared continuously, dazzling and illuminating the sky! With the activation of [Territory of Thunder], this domain¡¯s power collided with the blood shadow¡¯s domain and ovepped each other. Xue Linglong and the others finally regainedplete control of their bodies, with deep fear showing on their faces. The blood shadow¡¯s domain was extremely terrifying. Even Stage Four powerhouses would lose their minds in an instant, turning into bloodthirsty monsters that only knew how to fight. In addition, the blood energy in their entire body would also be absorbed by the blood shadow, bing mobile blood packs. This really chilled them to the heart! Seeing Link and the others break free from the domain¡¯s influences, the blood shadow looked up at the sky¡ªwhere the thunder snakes were dancing wildly¡ªand let out a weirdugh. ¡°Haha, a domain-type secret treasure, and it¡¯s a high-grade one too! You ants are really surprising!¡± Link¡¯s expression was indifferent, and he increased his mental power output. The breath and pressure from [God¡¯s Aura]¡ªwhich were rippling from his body¡ªinstantly became more and more turbulent! In a trance, the corner of the blood shadow¡¯s eyes seemed to have glimpsed an image of a terrifying abyss existence appearing behind Link! In this image, the strands of spider silk were like the pirs of heaven, criss-crossing each other in a criss-cross pattern. In the depth of the dense spider silk, an indescribable existence opened its eyes! It was a huge, spider-like figure, which made even this blood shadow that came from a Semi-Sage shiver in fear! A dreamlike force was also invading the blood shadow¡¯s mind, making him extremely sleepy as if he was about to be dragged into a long and eternal dream. Link noticed the change in the blood shadow¡¯s state, and his heart shook slightly. He had previously guessed that this happened because the god he encountered was the Spider God, who weaved a giant web in the Dreands. Therefore, when he used [God¡¯s Aura], the breath radiating from him should have some of this god¡¯s characteristics. For example, what caused the blood shadow¡¯s state to decline at this moment should be the Spider God¡¯s [Sleepy] trait¡ªwhich seemingly made people fall into an eternal dream! Link took advantage of this opportunity to activate [God of Evil¡¯s Whispers]! The blood shadow¡ªwho was in the [Sleepy] state¡ªsuddenly heard crazy sounds in his ears. The sound was an incredibly depraved, sphemous, distorted voice, which whispered, instigated, and led people into the abyss of madness... After being affected by spiritual impacts one after another, even the blood shadow was also overwhelmed slightly, and his consciousness became a little blurred. Even his body, which was seemingly carved from blood jade, began to bulge all over, seemingly about to be [Aberrated]! The blood shadow¡¯s heart was full of shock and surprise. He could feel that the breath exuding from Link¡¯s body at this moment was that of two great existences. How could a human being possess such power? While the blood shadow resisted the dream¡¯s power and the whispers¡¯ corruption, Link¡¯s figure quickly dashed forward, disappeared from the city wall by using [Instant Teleport], and appeared directly in front of the blood shadow! The [King¡¯s Sword] in his hand shed down fiercely, carrying a biting wind pressure with it! For this attack, Link didn¡¯t hesitate to use [Rage of the Holy Sword]! A king¡¯s golden aura covered Link¡¯s whole body, and all of his stats were increased by 10,000%. His damage was also increased by 10,000%! This blow¡¯s force was terrifying, and even Stage Six existences would be fatally wounded! Chapter 136: Destroy the Semi-Sage Imprint! Eternal Sleep!

Chapter 136: Destroy the Semi-Sage Imprint! Eternal Sleep!

The sound of arge explosion sted across the entire ce! As Link¡¯s attacknded, the blood shadow exploded again, turning into blood mist! This time, the blood mist only condensed again after a short moment passed. In addition, the bloody figure that the blood mist turned into was much smaller than before. The color had also be a little lighter. It should be understood that Link¡¯s powerful and terrifying attack was enough to obliterate Stage Five monsters; it could even kill some of the weaker Stage Six monsters! The blood shadow obviously suffered quite a bit of damage, but it wasn¡¯t destroyed yet. Sage-level existences were indeed terrifying. Just this spiritual imprint strand alone was very difficult to defeat! At this moment, the blood shadow was furious. As a result, the blood shadow slightly freed himself from the influence of [Sleepy] and [Whispering]. He roared, ¡°Damn it! This body is too weak! If my own body descended, I¡¯d crush you with just one finger!¡± Link just sneered back. It¡¯s still too early for Semi-Sages to descend on Blue Star! In addition, I¡¯m constantly getting stronger too. When the timees for Blue Star to be unsealed and Semi-Sages are able to descend, it won¡¯t be certain who would be crushing who by then! Taking advantage of [Rage of the Holy Sword]¡¯s one-minute effects, Link continued to attack the blood shadow. The fierce sword energy swept toward the blood shadow like a raging river! As this happened, the three summoned creatures¡ªGod Devourer Ant, Yuna, and Star Moon¡ªalso aided him. Beams of golden holy light energy and beams of energy¡ªwhich intertwined with darkness, corrosion, and me energy¡ªconstantly bombarded the blood shadow! As for God Devourer Ant, it used its terrifying physical strength to sh out a wave of wind des, furtherpressing the blood shadow¡¯s movement space! The blood shadow wasn¡¯t weak. Even though it was enduring spiritual attacks, it was still attacking Link in return too. Blood energy swept out one after another, colliding with the golden sword energy. The chaotic sword energy and the various energy attacks collided with each other, sting out explosions that almost broke people¡¯s eardrums! The ground was devastated by the aftermath of their attacks. Vertical and horizontal ravines were created, and the sand and rocks were blown to pieces. The scene was terrifying! Yang Xuerou and the others¡ªwho were watching the battle on the city wall¡ªwere quite dumbfounded too! Even though they had been repeatedly shocked by Link¡¯s strength, they couldn¡¯t help feeling amazed and terrified this time too. What the heck! Is this really the power that a Stage Four powerhouse can burst out with? Though facing a Stage Six monster transformed from a Semi-Sage¡¯s spiritual imprint, Link is actually not losing to it! He is even seemingly suppressing it?! ¡°Lord is a Stage Four powerhouse? Are all Stage Four powerhouses so strong or am I too weak?!¡± Luo Xinghe¡¯s emotional state wasplicated at this moment, and his face was full of surprise. Luo Xingyao nced at her brother and spoke in a somewhat disgusted tone. ¡°Ugh, don¡¯t think this. How can youpare to the highness of the Lord?¡± Luo Xinghe was leftpletely speechless. He roared in his heart, feeling like crying. Is this really my sister? Why is she speaking like she isn¡¯t my biological sister? Even Xue Linglong¡ªwho was always cold like an iceberg¡ªcouldn¡¯t help but part her red lips slightly, revealing her white teeth, and eximed, ¡°The blood shadow has been beaten into a blood mist again! Lord... Is Lord really a human?¡± Fatty Lu Da swallowed a mouth of saliva and said, ¡°He was human before the apocalypse. As for whether he¡¯s still human now, I have no idea...¡± Yang Xuerou covered her mouth andughed. Her pair of extremely bright eyes¡ªwhich were seemingly filled with autumn water¡ªwas fixed on Link, a strange light swirling in them. ... Link was immersed in the battle, oblivious about how the people behind him were talking about him. At this time, taking advantage of thest few seconds of [Rage of the Holy Sword], Link immediately mobilized the power of light in the [Holy Spirit Ne] to activate [Holy Sword of the Light]! In the twinkling of an eye. Streams of light converged at the [King¡¯s Sword], and golden mes shrouded the original slender sword body, bing magnificent and brilliant! A golden brilliance also shrouded Link¡¯s whole body. His whole being looked extraordinary, appearing like a god of light that had descended into the world! Taking advantage of the short instance when the blood shadow was blocking Yuna and the others¡¯ attacks, Link fiercely shed the blood shadow with a single blow! Boom! Another explosive sound was created again! The blood shadow was beaten into blood mist again! This was already the fifth time that the blood shadow had been beaten into blood mist. This time, it took an extra long time for the blood shadow to condense his body. It took five full breaths of time before his body had finally condensed again. The blood shadow¡¯s power had been weakened to an extremely miserable state due to being sted apart continuously. The blood shadow was a Semi-Sage¡¯s spiritual imprint in the first ce, relying on Bloodseeker¡¯s soul blood to transform into this body. But now, the blood shadow was obviously about to be unable to sustain this form anymore. ¡°Damn it! Damn it! Damn ants!¡± The blood shadow was already extremely furious now, almost losing his mind, and his heart was full of hatred toward Link! He originally thought that he could crush this group of ants effortlessly with the Semi-Sage¡¯s understanding and ability with the nomological¡ªcoupled with his Stage Six rank, which was higher than Link and the others. But yet, he had encountered a freak! It was like a tyrannosaurus suddenly appearing in a flock of sheep¡ªthis waspletely beyond the blood shadow¡¯s expectation! He was a dignified Semi-Sage, yet he had been repeatedly sted apart by a Stage Four human! How could he tolerate this? It was already not bad that the blood shadow hadn¡¯t gone mad with anger yet. But at this moment, the blood shadow was clearly on the verge of madness. Since his strength was constantly decreasing, he could no longer resist the corruption of [Sleepy] and [God of Evil¡¯s Whispers] for long periods of time! If he continued to fight, the spiritual influence he received would intensify more and more. All that awaited him then would be destruction! The blood shadow fiercely nced at Link from the corner of his eyes and roared, ¡°Ant! I will definitely kill you!¡± When the words fell, the blood shadow turned extremely scarlet again as if his entire body was about to bleed! Even his aura¡ªwhich had be weak¡ªhad turned dangerous again! The blood shadow was going to kill Link along with himself at the expense of detonating the spiritual imprint! Although Sage-level existences were extremely terrifying, every strand of spiritual energy that could be refined into a spiritual imprint belonged to their core spirit essence. Although it wouldn¡¯t endanger the owner¡¯s life if it was destroyed, it would still be a big loss. It could even affect the foundation of the owner¡¯s power. But the blood shadow obviously couldn¡¯t care about whatever he would lose now. He just wanted Link¡¯s life! Link narrowed his eyes, immediately noticing the blood shadow¡¯s abnormality. He quickly activated [Eternal Sleep], one of the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep]¡¯s active skills! Under the effect of eternal sleep¡¯s power, the enemy unit has a 10% chance of falling into an eternal sleep, or their attributes are weakened and are affected by negative effects such as sleepiness and dullness. Moreover, the monster whose spirit fell into eternal sleep would bepletely controlled by the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep]¡¯s holder! All of a sudden. Link exuded a strange aura that didn¡¯t belong to this world, and a series of twisted whispers sounded. They were like a call from a dream, wanting to pull the blood shadow into an eternal dream! Boom! The blood shadow¡¯s head was seemingly being severely smashed by a giant hammer. It turned nk, leaving only the whispers in his ears. This was because he had once again seen a horrifying figure appear behind Link! It was a horrifying, indescribable existence, which stared at him from the depths of the cobwebs! The dreamlike breath of eternal sleep emanated from that figure, wanting to pull him into the Dreands! The blood shadow was already suffering from the spiritual impacts of [Sleepy] and [Whispering], and now, it didn¡¯t have any more strength to resist this force too! The world in front of the blood shadow seemed to turn into a mirror, shattering inch by inch. Cracks rapidly spread like dense spider silk! He was then greeted by total darkness and eternal sleep! Chapter 137: Guardian Beast! Mystery Man!

Chapter 137: Guardian Beast! Mystery Man!

In the others¡¯ eyes, the fierce light in the blood shadow¡¯s eyes¡ªwhich had suddenly be terrifying¡ªabruptly became dim and hollow. Just like when a bomb was about to explode, the wire was cut off suddenly. It then became a dud, with only the appearance still looking like a bomb! And Link¡ªwho had activated [Eternal Sleep]¡ªcould clearly sense that the blood shadow¡¯s spiritual will from a certain abyssal Semi-Sage disappeared in an instant. It was as though it was ruthlessly erased by arge hand hidden in a dark and mysterious ce, causing the blood shadow to fall into an eternal dream! Moreover, Link also noticed a certain connection was built between him and the blood shadow¡¯s body¡ªwhose will was erased. At this moment, the blood shadow was like a puppet with only its instincts left. In the blood shadow¡¯s body was a ball of spider-like twisted shadows that seemed half-real and half-virtual. Link also seemed capable of controlling the blood shadow¡¯s body with his will now. Link sent out a thought to the blood shadow through his mind, and the huge blood shadow¡ªmeasuring several feet high¡ªsuddenly knelt down on one knee, bowed its head, and waited for Link¡¯s instructions. In the eyes of everyone at the city wall, this scene was extremely shocking! Luo Xinghe, Luo Xingyao, and the others were all stunned. Their heads buzzed like they had been shocked by the sound of a sudden thunder boom! Fatty Lu Da was instantly dumbfounded. The fat on his face trembled, and his face was full of disbelief. ¡°This... Why is this blood shadow kneeling to Link? Is it asking for mercy, or is there a conspiracy?¡± No one answered him, and there was only silence around him. Xue Linglong and the others all stared at Link¡¯s figure dazedly. At this moment, Link¡¯s robe was flying in the wind, and the sword energy surrounded his body. He was already very outstanding. But coupled with the kneeling blood shadow, Link now seemed to be even more unfathomable! After a long while, Luo Xinghe sucked in a breath of cold air and eximed, ¡°How strong exactly is the Lord now? That is a monster created by a Semi-Sage¡¯s spiritual imprint, yet it¡¯s actually kneeling now?¡± Luo Xingyao and the other women¡¯s beautiful eyes were also full of puzzlement and surprise! After all, the blood shadow was rted to a Semi-Sage, and its strength was extremely terrifying. Just releasing the pressure of a Sage-level existence alone already made them seem like they were in a mire and made it difficult to move. Yet, such an exceptionally powerful monster was kneeling in front of Link at this moment! This scene was like a dream, so who could believe it? Who could still remain calm? Fatty Lu Da swallowed hard and murmured, ¡°Brother Link... is really like a heifer sitting on a rocket. The cow¡¯s c*nt is soaring into the sky[1]!¡± ... Below the city wall, Link¡¯s eyes flickered as he familiarized himself with the powerful effects brought by [Eternal Sleep]. He couldpletely control the blood shadow in front of him and even make this huge blood shadowpletely copse and die with just a thought of his mind. And all this was brought about by the twisted spider shadow that appeared in the blood shadow. The creatures that fall into eternal sleep will be controlled by the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep]¡¯s holder. This item is indeed powerful! said Link silently in his heart. It should be understood that the blood shadow itself was a product of a Semi-Sage¡¯s spiritual imprint, and its power had reached Stage Six¡ªwhich was extremely terrifying. But now, it wasn¡¯t possible for the blood shadow to execute secret arts like before, although the Semi-Sage¡¯s will had been wiped out. However, this remnant body still exuded a powerful aura that wasn¡¯t weaker than a Stage Five powerhouse! Moreover, this was because the blood shadow had consumed too much power during the battle with Link just now. If the blood shadow¡¯s strength was supplemented, it would directly be a terrifying Stage Six, Bright Moon-rank existence! In contrast, there might not even be any humans on Blue Star that had reached Stage Five now and became a Star-rank powerhouse! Having a Stage Six monster as a puppet was probably something nobody could even dare to imagine! Link was also quite satisfied at this time. Bloodseeker and the Semi-Sage in the abyss had practically given him a great gift! ¡°Very good. From now on, you shall be Unfallen City¡¯s guardian beast. If any creature dares to invade Unfallen City, crush them!¡± ¡°Yes.¡± The blood shadow let out a deep voice as it responded to Link, appearing extremely submissive. On the city wall, Yang Xuerou and the others were once again stunned. They almost thought that something was wrong with their ears. Let the blood shadow be the guardian beast of Unfallen City? The blood shadow is the product of a Semi-Sage¡¯s spiritual imprint. It is like the Semi-Sage¡¯s incarnation. Isn¡¯t this akin to treating a Semi-Sage as a watchdog? If the Semi-Sage in the abyss descended in the future, will he be mad with anger? ¡°Guardian beast?!¡± Luo Xinghe originally felt that he was going to be numb toward whatever happened from now on. No matter how shocking the scene, it wouldn¡¯t cause any ripples in his heart anymore. But he couldn¡¯t help but exim now. A terrifying monster with a Stage Six existence¡¯s strength was going to be Unfallen City¡¯s guardian beast! Link was probably the only person who could do something like this! Fatty Lu Da¡¯s face was trembling again. His eyes were as wide as the eyes of a bull, and his lips were trembling. However, he didn¡¯t know what to say. This kind of behavior was beyond everyone¡¯s imagination, even the imagination of Xue Linglong¡ªwho had always been cold like an iceberg. The corners of her eyes twitched slightly! After he made the arrangement for the blood shadow, Link immediately took off the [Mask of the Faceless] on his face and walked toward the city gate. Behind him, the several meters tall blood shadow¡ªwho was like a small hill shrunk to two meters high¡ªand followed silently. ... At the same time. A figure appeared in front of a distorted building. He wore a ck hoodie with his hands in his pockets, and his face was shrouded by the hood¡¯s shadow. Inside the building was the ck Dragon Gang altar, which had been destroyed by Link. This building¡ªdue to the influence of the God of Evil¡¯s aura¡ªhad undergone irreversible degradation and distortion. It was densely covered with spider silk, like an extremely huge cocoon, and there were some Spiderhumans¡¯ broken limbs on the ground¡ªwhich appeared shocking to the sight. The No Retreat Army¡¯s soldiers and the others had already moved far away from here and sealed off the vicinity to prevent people from being aberrated due to the influence of the remaining God of Evil¡¯s breath. However, the figure that appeared in front of this distorted building didn¡¯t seem to care about being aberrated or the influence of the remaining God of Evil¡¯s breath. Instead, he took in a few deep breaths, and a sh of intoxication shed through his eyes under the hood. ¡°It¡¯s really a pity. This ce was supposed to be a dreamlike ce, but it was destroyed.¡± The man sighed softly and strode into the distorted building. The inside of the building seemed to be made from flesh. Since the source of the God of Evil¡¯s breath had been destroyed, this flesh had lost its vitality, bing dry and grayish. The man in the hoodie stretched out his hand to stroke the fleshy wall and then went straight down to the second basement floor. It was a mess here. There were many traces of fighting on the ground, filled with deep ravines and potholes. The altar that originally stood here had been destroyed. The man kept rummaging through the debris, closing his eyes from time to time as if he were sensing for something. After a while, the man stopped. There were a few broken gem pieces in his hand. It was the spider eye gemstones that were damaged after pulling Link into the Dreands. ¡°What a pity. I thought I could recycle something... Link, you really leave no loopholes. Forget it; this is just an experiment anyway. It¡¯s time to find ck Dragon now. I believe he should be able to show me some interesting stuff.¡± The man shook his head and took off his hood, revealing a young face. It was the Priest from No Retreat Army, who Link had noticed previously¡ªJiang Cheng! [1] Means extremely awesome. Chapter 138: Strange Activity in the Abyss. The No Retreat Army is Here!

Chapter 138: Strange Activity in the Abyss. The No Retreat Army is Here!

Outside Blue Star, deep in the Abyssal Realm. A sticky blood-colored substance covered this ce, making it look just like a blood-colored ocean. But at this moment, this blood-colored ocean was not calm. It swirled unceasingly, and a Sage-level force swept across it. The entire space trembled faintly! Several huge figures standing at the sea of blood¡¯s edge knelt down, trembling when they saw the swirling sea. A roar as loud as thunder sounded from the sea of blood¡¯s depths! ¡°Damn it! How can the spiritual imprint I left behind be erased? Damned brat, I will kill him!¡± ... The angry roar, together with the sea of blood¡¯s turbulence, was terrifying! Only after a long time did peace return to this ce. A huge head coalesced from the sea of blood. It had a pair of evil eyes, which emitted a monstrous and bloodthirsty aura, making the sky tremble! A dense Semi-Sage pressure pervaded the ce. It was as if heaven and earth were trembling under this head¡¯s gaze! The kneeling figures all jolted, and then they hurriedly spoke. ¡°Your subordinates are awaiting the Lord¡¯smand!¡± The huge head, full of killing intent, coldly said, ¡°I want to rest for a period of time. Have the juniors who entered Blue Star erase this human!¡± Along with those words, a huge blood-colored curtain of light appeared in between heaven and earth. On the screen was an image of a young man in white robes. He held a golden sword, and his body was as straight as a spear. It was Link! ¡°Yes!¡± The huge figures all answered respectfully. ... On the Blue Star, the No Retreat Armypound was a hubbub. A group of No Retreat Army soldiers¡ªalong with the other people¡ªwere packing their clothes, preparing to leave and head for Unfallen City. After the discussion during the meeting the day before, most of the people in the No Retreat Army were inclined to join Unfallen City. After all, in this apocalyptic world, being able to live in a human main city was far safer than living in the wilderness. This was an option that was hard to refuse. Link¡¯s strength and character had also been acknowledged by the No Retreat Army¡¯s soldiers. So, today came to be. Soon, all the people finished packing. Zhao Yongkang looked at the long procession converging behind him. He saw the people¡¯s glittering eyes and their expectant expressions, and a smile appeared on his face. He knew what these people were looking forward to was a stable life. Unfallen City, which had be a human main city, could fulfill their wish. In front of Zhao Yongkang¡¯s eyes, there seemed to be a vague figure of Link¡¯s steely back in white robes. Perhaps, that man will be the hope for humanity in the apocalypse! With this thought in mind, Zhao Yongkang bellowed the order without hesitation. ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡± Therge crowd headed in the direction of Unfallen City. However, a young priest of the No Retreat Army suddenly came up to Zhao Yongkang and reported, ¡°Chief Zhao, Jiang Cheng has disappeared.¡± Upon hearing that, Zhao Yongkang¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly. ¡°When did it happen?¡± ¡°I found out this morning. It seems he left yesterday without telling us,¡± said the young priest. A No Retreat Army soldier beside Zhao Yongkang scratched his head, surprised. ¡°How could that be? Why did he leave? After joining Unfallen City, our safety will be better guaranteed. Someone as talented as Jiang Cheng will definitely be recruited by City Master Link. There is no reason for him to leave...¡± Zhao Yongkang also had some doubts, but he did not say anything more at this time. He just said, ¡°Got it.¡± Now, the people in the No Retreat Army all wanted to live safely in a human main city. Although Zhao Yongkang held Jiang Cheng in high regard, it was impossible to change their n because of him alone. There were tens of thousands of people moving forward. Although the apocalypse was dangerous, it was also a great opportunity for the [Doomsday Online] yers. Those who had survived so far had, more or less, their abilities upgradedpared to the pre-apocalypse period. They had gained extraordinary abilities that they never would¡¯ve thought of having before, and their speed was high. In a short time, the crowd saw the towering ck walls of Unfallen City. Rings of order were dense in the air above Unfallen City. They made the space near the city more stable. No terrifying monsters would be descending from the space cracks suddenly. ¡°Is this the main city? It¡¯s really quite extraordinary!¡± eximed someone in the No Retreat Army. At that moment, a terrifying pressure suddenly came from the direction of Unfallen City! This was a power far stronger than that of a Stage Four powerhouse. It caused the faces of many No Retreat Army soldiers to turn pale instantly! Their hearts thumped as if they were facing a terrifying beast, and a sense of fear and imminent death pervaded their hearts! Even the top Stage Four human powerhouses, such as Zhao Yongkang, turned pale! The tremendous oppression descended upon them like Mountain Tai. It made their bodies stiffen, and they were unable to move. Some lower-stage yers were full of fear. They trembled under the monstrous pressure, their legs trembling like chaff being sifted! ¡°What¡¯s going on? This overwhelming pressure... Could it be that a terrifying monster hase?¡± ¡°Didn¡¯t they say that powerful monsters wouldn¡¯t appear around the main city?!¡± ¡°Such a terrifying pressure! Could it be a Stage Six, Bright Moon-rank monster, or a stronger existence?¡± Exmations of shock all rang out at once. Meanwhile, Zhao Yongkang and the other Stage Four powerhouses narrowed their eyes and gazed at the ck city wall in the distance. There, a blood-colored figure suddenly lunged out. It transformed into a terrifying blood shadow several feet tall, seemingly about to attack them. A thunderous roar shook the sky! ¡°Crush... Crush!¡± The huge blood shadow, with equally terrifying speed, raised its arms and headed toward the crowd! At this moment, another voice from the city battlements shouted fiercely, ¡°Stop.¡± The blood shadow stopped moving, turned his head to look at the city, and spoke in a somewhat stuttering voice. ¡°Those who vite Unfallen City... Crush...¡± Link shook his head, and a touch of helplessness shed across his face. This blood shadow¡¯s original will had been erased, though the creature¡¯s instincts were retained because of [Eternal Sleep]¡¯s effects. The blood shadow was like a newborn beast, still a bit confused or a bit stupid. It was a good thing Link had a spiritual connection with the blood shadow and could feel everything that was happening on his side. Otherwise, there was really a possibility that there could be big trouble. ¡°Come back,¡±manded Link firmly. The huge blood shadow immediately turned around and returned to Unfallen City¡¯s gates, morphing into a two-meter-tall, blood-colored figure. He opened his bloody mouth wide open and grinned at Link. This made Link feel like he had a silly son. Zhao Yongkang and the others were all frozen in ce with dumbfounded looks on their faces! They had yet to understand the situation. Yang Xuerou exined to the crowd below the city. ¡°Gentlemen, sorry, this is our City Master¡¯s pet. It¡¯s supposed to be the city¡¯s guardian beast. Apologies for scaring everyone.¡± ¡°Eh...¡± It took a while before Zhao Yongkang and the others recovered from the shock they had just had. When they heard these words, they were once again shocked. This was actually Unfallen City¡¯s guardian beast? Chapter 139: Request! Population Increase!

Chapter 139: Request! Poption Increase!

The corner of Zhao Yongkang¡¯s eyes twitched viciously. For a while, he didn¡¯t know what to say. It was important to know that there were also powerful Summoners within the No Retreat Army. But they simply weren¡¯tparable to Link. It was likeparing heaven to earth¡ªit seemed as though they were two different professions. And now, Link had a new guardian beast that would scare off even a Stage Four powerhouse! How was one supposed to y? ¡®Cough cough.¡± Zhao Yongkang coughed and asked, ¡°What Stage is this guardian beast?¡± Yang Xuerou thought for a while and then said, ¡°Currently, it¡¯s Stage Five. We are looking for ways to bring his strength back.¡± Stage Five! A group of No Retreat Army soldiers and other people drew in a cold breath at the same time. It was as though they were struck by lightning¡ªtheir brains buzzed! Good heavens! We haven¡¯t even seen a Stage Five human powerhouse yet! Unfallen City actually has a Stage Five monster watching the gate? Zhao Yongkang was almost petrified on the spot. He didn¡¯t even pay attention to Yang Xuerou¡¯s second sentence. Exmations of shock rang out in the crowd at once! ¡°This is a ... Stage Five monster! Did I hear that right?¡± ¡°It should be right. After all, even a Stage Four powerhouse, such as myself, felt that terrifying oppressive force!¡± ¡°Using a Stage Five monster to guard the city, City Master Link is too amazing!¡± The fear that the people had earlier on had faded. Their hearts were now filled with excitement and exhration. It should be known that, in the previous siege, the one that led the Undead army to attack the No Retreat Army was only a Stage Four, Level 10 Evil General! Yet, Unfallen City actually had a Stage Five monster guarding the city! One could only imagine how strong this city was! The stronger Unfallen City was, the safer the environment would be when they joined. How could the crowd not be excited? The eyes of a group of No Retreat Army soldiers and others sparkled. They felt secure for the future. No Retreat Army¡¯s leader¡ªZhao Yongkang¡¯s fierce eyes shone brightly. He stared at Link¡ªwho wore a calm expression at the city battlement¡ªand felt that this young man was unfathomable more and more! The [Death Judge] mentioned in thest two world announcements should be Link, right? thought Zhao Yongkang silently. Although their professions were clearly different¡ªone was a Summoner, and one was a Fighter-type profession¡ªZhao Yongkang had an inexplicable intuition. He believed that he had grasped the key point. If Link really was the powerful person who had shocked Blue Star again and again, then the No Retreat Army would have made the right choice in joining Unfallen City. Only such a powerhouse would be able to protect a Pure Land in this apocalypse and continue the human legacy! ¡°Don¡¯t stand at the door. Let everyonee in,¡± Link said. Unfallen City¡¯s city gates quickly opened, and Yang Xuerou hurriedly sent people to prepare a banquet for the No Retreat Army. Due to Unfallen City¡¯s rapid rise and the early search for a lot of supplies, there was no shortage of food and drinks. And for these soldiers who would rather die than retreat, the people at Unfallen City respected them a lot. It was believed that both sides would unify very quickly. ¡°Okay.¡± Zhao Yongkang nodded and led his people into the city. The joining of the No Retreat Army and others seemed to have enforced Unfallen City further. Link looked at the people entering the city one after another, and a faint smile appeared on his face. The most worthless thing in this apocalyptic world was human lives. But in order to survive, the most important thing was also human lives. Only with arge enough poption could Unfallen City rapidly grow in the short term. Link had long nned to expand Unfallen City to ept more people. Hence, the housing was all prepared. Soon, a group of civilians had settled down. As the host, Link entered arge hall together with Zhao Yongkang and other No Retreat Army powerhouses. Inside the hall, wine and various foods had been set up. After three rounds of wine, Link noticed that Zhao Yongkang wanted to say something but hesitated. It seemed like there was something he found hard to disclose. Link narrowed his eyes and asked, ¡°Chief Zhao, is there something you want to say?¡± Zhao Yongkang said solemnly, ¡°City Master, since we have joined Unfallen City, we are now your subordinates. You can call me Old Zhao. I do have a request, but it¡¯s a little dangerous. It¡¯s not easy to say.¡± ¡°But there¡¯s no harm in saying so,¡± stated Link calmly. Zhao Yongkang nodded and continued speaking. ¡°City Master should have heard about it when you came to our rescue previously. A Stage Four powerhouse of my No Retreat Army, Luo Haoyue, was taken away by the ck Dragon Gang. We don¡¯t even know if she¡¯s dead or alive.¡± ¡°I wish to ask the City Master to take action¡ªto destroy the ck Dragon Gangpletely and to save Luo Haoyue if there¡¯s a chance!¡± ¡°But the ck Dragon Gang is rted to the God of Evil. They are a bunch of entric lunatics. It¡¯s too difficult and dangerous to want to destroy them...¡± At this point in the conversation, Zhao Yongkang said nothing more, which was also to give Link a chance to refuse his request. After all, he was well aware of how terrifying the ck Dragon Gang was. During apocalyptic times, everyone could hardly save themselves. Who would take such a risk for others? Unexpectedly, Link nodded without hesitation. ¡°No problem. I¡¯ll head to the ck Dragon Gang personally.¡± Personally! Zhao Yongkang and a few No Retreat Army powerhouses were dumbfounded. They had not expected Link to be so decisive! This said a lot about how important they were to Link. Zhao Yongkang and the few powerhouses¡¯ hearts warmed. To gain such a wise master, what else could one ask for? ¡°Thank you, City Master!¡± Zhao Yongkang suddenly let out a long exhale. ¡°City Master, when you do, please ask us toe along. In the future, if the City Master has any errands, please feel free to order us.¡± A few No Retreat Army Stage Four powerhouses nodded. ¡°We are at the City Master¡¯s disposal!¡± Looking at the sincere No Retreat Army, Link smiled calmly. He already had grudges with the ck Dragon Gang, and he had long wanted to destroy the gangpletely. But he previously didn¡¯t have time to take care of it because of the uing siege. Andter, he was dyed by some things. Luo Haoyue, ording to Link¡¯s memories of his previous life, was an [Insect Summoner]. If he managed to save her, take her in, and cultivate her... In the next Zerg invasion, Luo Haoyue¡¯s special profession would y a big role. For these reasons, Link would not refuse this request. Zhao Yongkang and the others¡¯ expressions of loyalty was an unexpected bonus. ... After the banquet, Link arrived at the City Master¡¯s Hall. He sent out a thought, and the city panel of Unfallen City appeared in front of him. [Unfallen City] Grade: First-level main city (Upgradeable) Poption: 66,557 people. ... The original [Doomsday Online] yers in Unfallen City¡ªplus the people brought by Zhao Yongkang¡ªbrought Unfallen City¡¯s total poption to nearly 70,000. A poption of 100,000 was one of the requirements for leveling to a second-level main city! After being promoted to a second-level main city, the city would continue to expand and be stronger to better cope with the next Zerg invasion! It¡¯s time to prepare for the uing Zerg invasion, thought Link silently, and he strode out of the City Master¡¯s Hall. Chapter 140: Black Dragon Gang Base! Man-made God!

Chapter 140: ck Dragon Gang Base! Man-made God!

Living his life a second time, Link knew that the Abyssal Realm and the Undead Army weren¡¯t everything there was to the apocalypse. There were more terrifying existences that would descend on Blue Starter on. If one wanted to survive, they would have to improve their capabilities and strengthen themselves constantly. Outside the City Master¡¯s Hall, Xue Linglong and the others stood by respectfully. Yang Xuerou took a step forward and said solemnly, ¡°City Master, ording to the scouting over the past two days, many of the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s strongholds in Dragon City have been abandoned.¡± ¡°After the sacrificial offering to the God of Evil, everyone in the ck Dragon Gang has gone into hiding, going underground and into the darkness. They are seemingly engaged in some deeper scheme.¡± ¡°We have also captured several peripheral members who have had contact with the ck Dragon Gang, but there¡¯s no way to know their true purpose. It¡¯s currently difficult to find traces of the ck Dragon Gang in Dragon City through conventional means.¡± Not only was the ck Dragon Gang the No Retreat Army¡¯s enemy, but also Unfallen City¡¯s enemy. After taking care of the Semi-Sage imprint, Link sent the [Doomsday Online] yers under him to scout for news about the ck Dragon Gang. It now seemed like the ck Dragon Gang was indeed still plotting something. Communicating with the God of Evil was not their whole purpose. And lying low currently seemed more like the calm before the storm. Link nodded slightly and asked, ¡°Is there anything happening in the wilderness outside the city?¡± In the wilderness outside Dragon City was the Epochal Ruins; the [Key of Relic] had always been in Link¡¯s hands. Previously, the siege had not begun, so the ruins could not be entered. However, the Epochal Ruins was now essible. But Link intended to resolve the unstable factor, the ck Dragon Gang, andpletely develop Dragon City into a strong city before considering going to the ruins. Based on the words of the Semi-Sage imprint before, Link guessed that certain existences in the abyss might know about the Epochal Ruins. Some ancient organizations on Blue Star might even know these secrets. But even if they knew where the ruins were, the [Key of Relic] was in Link¡¯s hands. What Link was doing now was to see if he could lure these people out and obtain more truths about the apocalypse. Yang Xuerou answered, ¡°Most of the people in the wilderness are nearby exiles who have beenforted and taken in by the people we sent. There are also some powerful ones who don¡¯t want to leave the wilderness to ept our shelter.¡± ¡°They could be from some powerful organizations that we¡¯re still investigating.¡± Is someone here already? It¡¯s getting more and more interesting. It looks like we need to take care of the ck Dragon Gang as soon as possible, Link thought. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he stopped asking. He looked at Xue Linglong and the others and solemnlymanded, ¡°Go back and get ready. We will set off in two hours.¡± Luo Xinghe and the others nodded without questions. Yang Xuerou asked, ¡°City Master, how many people should we send from Unfallen City this time? The ck Dragon Gang is not easy to deal with. Should we gather people above Stage Three?¡± Link shook his head slightly. ¡°We don¡¯t need many people.¡± The ck Dragon Gang had the ability to make people aberrated. If too many people went along, they might be a liability instead. Two hours soon passed, and everyone gathered again. Link brought along Xue Linglong, Luo Xinghe, Zhao Yongkang, and one No Retreat Army Stage Four powerhouse¡ªLi Geyang¡ªand left Unfallen City. The others, including the Stage Five blood shadow, stayed in the city to guard against unexpected events. Zhao Yongkang was surprised and excited by Link¡¯s efficiency. He had long wanted to eradicate the ck Dragon Gang and avenge his brother, who died in vain that day. ¡°City Master, it¡¯s hard to trace the ck Dragon Gang now. Do you have clues that lead to them?¡± Link nodded. One might not be able to locate the ck Dragon Gang using conventional means, but that didn¡¯t mean he couldn¡¯t find them. He took out the [Mask of the Faceless]¡ªwhich was full of madness and chaotic aura¡ªand covered his face with it. The mask, made of an unknown being¡¯s leather, dissolved and molded to Link¡¯s face. His aurapletely changed with it, permeating with madness and an indescribable aura. The jet-ck whirlpool pattern on the mask seemed to be rotating on its own, looking as if it could absorb one¡¯s soul into it. A faint whisper sounded as if there was an unknown presence chanting and instigating in the crowd¡¯s ears. ¡°Madness, foolishness... Those are the essences of the universe...¡± ¡°Senses... Abandoning senses... that is the curse...¡± ... But due to Link¡¯s control, these whispers wouldn¡¯t pollute Xue Linglong and the others¡¯ spirit. Also, with the [Mask of the Faceless] and the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep], Link was more sensitive to distorted auras. Hence, he was able to use it to pinpoint the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s current location. Link could feel that the ce with the strongest distorted aura within Dragon City was the No Retreat Army¡¯s original base. After all, that was the ce where the ck Dragon Gang used tomunicate with God of Evil and conduct rituals. Outside the city, there was also a dense God of Evil¡¯s aura, guiding the way like a lighthouse. ¡°Follow me,¡± said Link, and he went toward the direction of the ck Dragon Gang. ... The outskirts of Dragon City. Due to the Undead army¡¯s ravaging, this ce had long been uninhabited and deste. And this was just how it appeared to be. A huge space was carved out of the ground floor of a small, three-story vi. Members of the ck Dragon Gang shuttled through different areas while wearing whiteb coats. Ordinary people, as well as some Undead monsters and even Spiderhumans¡ªwhich had undergone deep aberration¡ªwere held in different areas divided by alloy doors. Various experiments were constantly conducted by the ck Dragon Gang members as they recorded the corresponding data. Many of them appeared sickly with sunken eyes. Some of the ck Dragon Gang members¡¯ bodies even appeared slightly aberrated. Such aberrations appeared in the forms of eyeballs and mouths growing on the surface of their bodies. It looked iparably bizarre. Basement three was ck Dragon Gang¡¯s most private ce. Only those with ck Dragon or Doctor Ghost could enter. Large apparatuses, with transparent containers filled with a green viscous liquid, were everywhere. In the transparent containers were human limbs and aberrated tissue. There were even a fewrge eyeballs swimming in the green liquid¡ªit was absolutely terrifying. Some of the apparatuses here were derived from old world technology and had a sci-fi look. The other apparatuses were new products created by Doctor Ghost by using his profession skills as a Craftsman,bined with old-world technology. At this moment, ck Dragon¡ªd in a ck robe and had a ghastly white face¡ªstood beside Doctor Ghost. And beside them was a young man wearing a hoodie. It was Jiang Cheng. Doctor Ghost appeared excited as he introduced a pir-shaped object¡ªcovered with ck cloth¡ªto both of them. ¡°This is the greatest achievement of this experiment. It can be an aberrant weapon that we can use. I call it¡ªMan-made God!¡± Chapter 141: Hidden Ground! Sudden Attack!

Chapter 141: Hidden Ground! Sudden Attack!

¡°Man-made gods?¡± A gleam of interest shed across Jiang Cheng¡¯s eyes. He tugged at the corners of his lips and exchanged a nce with ck Dragon. Both revealed smiles full of meaning. However, ck Dragon¡¯s smile was even crazier and unsettling. Seeing that they had aroused Jiang Cheng¡¯s interest, Doctor Ghost waved his hand with a fanatic look. ¡°Open it.¡± Two assistants dressed in white immediately removed the ck cloth shrouding the cylindrical object. A transparent container as tall as three meters appeared in everyone¡¯s sights. The container was filled with a light-gray liquid. Merely looking at the liquid made one instinctively feel a sense of danger and difort. And inside that liquid was also a curled-up human figure. It was a woman. Her features were gorgeous. Jet-ck strands of hair fluttered slightly in the liquid¡ªher beauty was exceptional. Presently, her eyes were closed. Both her hands were hugging her knees, looking like a mermaid fast asleep at the bottom of the sea. A small tube extended out, connecting the container and her as one. On the woman¡¯s back, eight aberrated, spear-like spider legs protruded. Even through the container, one could sense the sharpness of these pitch-ck chelicerae. It was as if they could easily rip carbon steel apart! ¡°Stillcking a little.¡± Sensing the twisted aura radiating from that woman, Jiang Cheng shook his head lightly, seemingly unsatisfied. Doctor Ghost¡¯s mechanical eyeball turned slightly, and he said with a smile, ¡°Indeed. We still need onest step.¡± Before his words fell, Doctor Ghost had walked to the apparatus by the side and pressed a red button. All of a sudden, a different liquid seemed to be injected into the container. The light-gray liquid quickly became dark and somber, turning into a dreamlike purple. At the same time, the eyelids of the woman¡ªwho was originally deep in sleep¡ªbegan trembling violently. An expression of agony appeared on her face. Dark-purple lines formed at the corner of her eyes and spread swiftly. An extremely sphemous and evil aura radiated outward with the container as the center! The woman abruptly opened her eyes, revealing a pair of pitch-ck eyeballs. There wasn¡¯t the slightest hint of white. Through that stagnant, water-like ckness, it was as if one could see the color of the Dreands. She let out a soundless snarl, but some kind of intangible wave seemed to ripple outward in theboratory! The containers¡ªwhich were full of unknown liquids¡ªexploded at this moment! Two of Doctor Ghost¡¯s assistants also held their heads at once. But their heads still burst open like thoroughly ripe watermelons beneath this frightening wave. A speck of splendid radiance shed through Jiang Cheng¡¯s eyes. He could not help but praise, ¡°Not bad.¡± This strange event did notst long. Very soon, the young woman inside the container closed her eyes once again. The purple liquid became increasingly sticky. Finally, it turned into a huge cocoon, enveloping the woman. Doctor Ghost didn¡¯t even spare a nce at the two assistants¡¯ corpses on the ground. He still introduced zealously, ¡°This is the body we found that is the best fit for Spider God¡¯s aura. We just have to wait till she breaks out of the cocoon. It will definitely give the world a surprise!¡± ¡°By then, her level will reach Stage Five. Most importantly, she¡ªwho is like the God of Evil¡¯s offspring¡ªwill possess the possibility of unlimited growth! She also won¡¯t fall into madness and disintegrate due to receiving too many of the God of Evil¡¯s rewards! She will be our sharpest spear!¡± p p! Apuse sounded; Jiang Cheng pped his hands smilingly and said, ¡°This is a pretty good work of art.¡± ck Dragon narrowed his eyes and spoke slowly, his voice hoarse and deep. ¡°You have already seen my results. I need to have more support from the organization.¡± ¡°I will truthfully report everything to the organization.¡± Jiang Cheng nodded understandingly but did not make a promise right away. ... On the other side, the grounds of the city. An invisible wave swept across Link and the others¡¯ bodies. Even though there was still some distance between this area and the source of the wave, Zhao Yongkang and the others still felt slight dizziness and fear. ¡°Are there any frightening creatures around?¡± Luo Xinghe frowned and gripped the longsword in his hand tightly. Link¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly. In his senses were multiple strong and twisted auras in the basement of that three-story vi not far out. ¡°We should be arriving soon,¡± stated Link in a deep voice and walked toward that empty vi. Upon hearing these words, a hint of graveness shed across Xue Linglong, Zhao Yongkang, and the others¡¯ faces. The ck Dragon Gang was an extremely sinister organization. They were able tomunicate with the God of Evil through special ritual procedures. People could not help but fear them. Everyone was prepared to go into battle at any time. Six-winged angel Yuna and God Devourer Ant followed closely behind Link. After entering the vi, what came into sight were corpses lying in disarray. These corpses were all shriveled as if they¡¯d been drained of blood. On the walls everywhere, there were also crimson-red drawings. They were like a child¡¯s scribbles, but they were filled with a profane and impure aura. But other than these, Zhao Yongkang and the others didn¡¯t find any other living beings in the vi. Zhao Yongkang bore the corpses¡¯ stench and said, ¡°Could we havee to the wrong ce? This ought to be the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s old base, but it seems to have been abandoned already.¡± Luo Xinghe alsomented confusedly, ¡°Has the ck Dragon Gang already left, or have they dug a hole and hid themselves?¡± Six-winged angel Yuna swung her staff, and golden holy light energy radiated out from her body like waves. The tattered bodies inside the vi were all shrouded in the golden light and turned into ashes. Xue Linglong only gripped the long spear in her hands tightly. She trusted her lord¡¯s judgment; he certainly wouldn¡¯t make a mistake. Link¡¯s countenance remained cold. He pointed to the underground, and the [King¡¯s Sword] had already appeared in his hand. At the same time, extremely sharp sword energy spread out from Link! The [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique] wasunched! The piercing sword intent abruptly rose and filled the entire abandoned vi! Link¡¯s white robes pped; his bearing was aloof as if a sword immortal had strode over the long river of time to arrive here! Without hesitation, he swung the sword at the ground beneath their feet. A golden sword ray instantly leaped out from the sword de. Sword energy that was as turbulent as a river mmed into the ground harshly! A roar instantly exploded in the area! The current Link could even suppress a Stage Six existence transformed from a Semi-Sage¡¯s imprint¡ªhis might was imaginable. Even some Stage Five monsters couldn¡¯t match up to his attributes! With just one sh, it was as if this area had encountered a frightening earthquake! Gravel flew in all directions; the ground was easily torn like white paper by that ming sword ray! After the cement on the ground was ripped apart, Link¡¯s sword energy also tore into the hidden metalyer! A massive space appeared before Xue Linglong and the others¡¯ eyes! Luo Xinghe andpany could not help opening their mouths slightly. ¡°We¡¯ve finally found it. It turns out the ck Dragon Gang has really be field mice during this period of time!¡± Zhao Yongkang sighed and tightened his grip around the de in his hand. A cold light gleamed in his eyes. Right at this moment, a sharp whistle sounded. The ck Dragon Gang members all frowned and passed on the information regarding the enemy¡¯s attack! Chapter 142: Aberrated Weapons! Defective Products!

Chapter 142: Aberrated Weapons! Defective Products!

¡°Enemy attack! There are enemies breaking in!¡± ck Dragon Gang members let out piercing warnings through the loudspeakers ced in the corridors andboratories. Together with the local areawork andmunication lines inside this three-story underground building, everyone soon received this piece of news. ck Dragon and Doctor Ghost¡ªwho were in the lower three levels¡ªwere naturally no exception. ¡°Enemy attack?¡± A speck of surprise shed across Doctor Ghost¡¯s face. Ever since they obtained the best ¡®container¡¯ from the No Retreat Army¡¯s base, they¡¯d erased all traces and focused on the ¡®man-made god¡¯ n. Nobody should¡¯ve discovered this base. ck Dragon narrowed his eyes slightly. Hints of spection shed through his eyes, and Link¡¯s figure even surfaced in his mind. He quietly thought in his heart, Is it that man¡ªwho carries an aura that does not belong to this world¡ªthat hase to our doorstep? Although a little surprised, there wasn¡¯t the slightest bit of bewilderment and nervousness on Doctor Ghost and ck Dragon¡¯s faces. There was no other reason; this area had been injected with the two people¡¯s painstaking efforts. It was the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s foundation, and it had long been forged into an extremely frightening ce! It definitely wasn¡¯t a ce where anybody could easily set foot in! The ones who ought to feel fear and despair should be those intruders! ¡°There is still some time before the final cocoon break. We might as well move to the main control room; let us see exactly what clowns have barged in here.¡± There seemed to be vague rows of numbers flickering in Doctor Ghost¡¯s mechanical eyeballs, and his tone was full of jest. He clearly didn¡¯t take the intruders seriously. He even saw them as bugs that he could freely wipe out. They were merely a small appetizer before they admired the breaking of the cocoon. An obscure glow shed across Jiang Cheng¡¯s eyes; he did not decline and followed Doctor Ghost to the main control room. Inside the control room was a massive screen. It was split into many frames¡ªthey were images of the various areas in the base. Troubled times had arrived; humankind¡¯s order crumbled, and changes happened to thews too. Even the majority of technological creations lost their effects. Or rather, they needed to mutually fuse with the current rules and forces. Presently, all the cameras used by ck Dragon Gang were created by Doctor Ghost with Myth-grade Craftsman skills in conjunction with the pre-apocalypse technological creations. The pieces of mechanical creations had eyeballs made of flesh on their surfaces and existed in the various inconspicuous corners of the base, constantly turning and watching everything. Following Doctor Ghost¡¯s maniption, an image was erged. Inside it was shockingly Link andpany. The ck Dragon Gang members in that area had presently all turned into broken limbs and minced flesh andid on the ground. ck Dragon looked at the young man holding a golden longsword in the image and said coldly, ¡°It¡¯s indeed him.¡± A cold gleam abruptly lit up in Doctor Ghost¡¯s eyes. The killing intent in his heart even erupted immediately. It could be said that enemies saw red the moment they met. ¡°Link has got some nerve! We did not find trouble with him, yet he actually brought people toe right to our door and seek doom! Truly, hell has no gates, yet you insist on barging in!¡± Jiang Cheng also arched his brow slightly as he looked at Zhao Yongkang and Link¡ªwho appeared in the image¡ªbut a contemtive smile soon showed at the corner of his lips. ¡°Zhao Yongkang is here too. It seems like the No Retreat Army already belongs to Unfallen City. The altar that you people set up at No Retreat Army¡¯s base was also destroyed by this Link¡ªhe¡¯s really haunting.¡± With gloom all over his face, Doctor Ghost said, ¡°No need to worry. Since this Link has barged in here by himself, there will certainly be no possible escape for him. There are many defective products in theboratories left behind from the processes of transforming aberrated weapons.¡± ¡°Those little fellows... Though they have fallen into madness and are difficult to constrain due to being unable to bear the God of Evil¡¯s gifts, their destructibility is certainly terrifying. They are enough to rip this group of people into pieces! We shall admire the performance that these few clowns are putting up with their lives.¡± The light in Jiang Cheng¡¯s eyes glimmered as he stared at the whirlpool mask on Link¡¯s face. Even though he was only looking at it through the screen currently, he could still sense twistedness and sphemy. It was as if his soul was about to be sucked in! ¡°This Link is very special. If possible, I hope to capture him alive! There must be a considerable number of secrets on him!¡± ck Dragon also nodded, his gaze staring fixedly at Link. ¡°At the very least, we have to keep aplete corpse. He must have a lot of good stuff on him!¡± As the trio conversed, Link¡ªwho was walking through the corridor¡ªseemed to have discovered something and abruptly turned his head. In the image, it was as if ck Dragon andpany¡ªwho were monitoring everything¡ªhad been found. A fierce gaze shot toward them! That gaze was filled with iciness and apathy. Steaks of sword shadows seemed to be flowing inside it. Together with that whirlpool mask, it made Doctor Ghost¡¯s heart drop involuntarily, and a sense of chilliness rose. After which, they only saw Link¡¯s wrist jerk, and the image before their eyes turned ck. Evidently, the monitoring camera in that area had been destroyed! This act was like establishing an imposing air for himself. It made ck Dragon and the others¡¯ countenances more grim. Doctor Ghost ordered his assistant at the side through gritted teeth, his tone utterly cold as if small pieces of ice were jumping out of his mouth. ¡°Release experimental bodies No. 6, No. 13, and No. 8! Let them get a good sense of fear!¡± ... Basement floor one. After Link casually destroyed an eyeball in the shadows, he stated with an aloof countenance, ¡°There are monitoring facilities here.¡± Luo Xinghe frowned. ¡°They¡¯ve been watching us the whole time? After the apocalypse arrived, the majority of the technological creations have lost their utility. It seems like Doctor Ghost¡¯s forging ability is indeed frightening. The subsequent path will probably be very dangerous!¡± Zhao Yongkang and the others nodded silently, being on-guard in their hearts. Before long, as the few people walked into a spacious hall, an alloy door suddenly descended behind them and blocked their route of retreat. At the same time, multiple alloy doors abruptly opened before them, looking like massive, pitch-ck openings. Snarls that made one¡¯s scalp numb and frightening auras of degeneration and filth came out from those dark doors! Obscure whispers also sounded in thepany¡¯s ears as if the ce that those doors were connected to was a fearsome abyss. Threads of nervousness and fear involuntarily rose in Zhao Yongkang and the others¡¯ hearts. Stifled footsteps soon sounded. It was as though huge monsters were stepping on the party¡¯s heartstrings. A hideous monster¡ªclose to three meters tall¡ªroared as it ran out of a jet-ck entrance. There were aberrated, stout cubes of flesh all over the monster. ck spines even covered its head. The big mouth at its abdomen opened, and foul-smelling saliva constantly dripped to the ground. Its saliva seemed to possess very terrifying corrosivity¡ªeven the ground that was made of alloy saw green smoke rising. While the monster¡¯s arms and legs were bloated and thick, it had also aberrated to produce many spear-like chelicerae. They sparkled with a cold gleam. Following the monster¡¯s appearance, a dreadful aura also shook the air... Chapter 143: Kill the Experimental Body! Aberrant Weapons!

Chapter 143: Kill the Experimental Body! Aberrant Weapons!

The entire space was rendered distorted, mad, depraved, and evil, making it very creepy! What¡¯s more, this aberrant creature wasn¡¯t the only one! The appearance of a nearly three-meter-tall monster¡ªlooking like a little giantpletely broke the calm here. From the alloy gates that quietly opened, monsters with aberrated heads flooded out. Most of these monsters looked terrifying and savage, and they were hard to describe. Staring at them for a long time would even result in spiritual contamination. Among them, there were even monsters simr to Spiderhumans in form. Within a few breaths, eight aberrated monsters appeared in front of Link and the others. The atmosphere was exceedingly suppressed. Each aberrated monster exuded the terrifying aura of a Stage Four existence, and among them were three monsters that had reached the peak of Stage Four, almost approaching Stage Five! The three monsters whose strength was approaching Stage Five were obviously more savage and crazier than the other aberrated creatures! Large alloy chains¡ªwhich had been broken¡ªwere still hanging from their bodies, and traces of numbers could be faintly seen. The numbers were 6... 8... 13. Such a force was enough to destroy cities and fortresses and make the human race of the current stage feel despair and fear! Even though they were Stage Four powerhouses, Zhao Yongkang, Li Geyang, and the others couldn¡¯t help turning pale in the face of such a scene. The immense physical pressure and spiritual pollution were attacking them! ... The main control room on the basement¡¯s third floor. Doctor Ghost clicked on the control panel and pulled up a screen again. It was the scene where Link and the others encountered the aberrated monsters. ¡°No. 6, No. 8, and No. 13. Although they are defective products and can¡¯t be controlled by us, the aberration has given them terrifying abilities that are enough to match monsters that have just advanced to Stage Five!¡± ¡°In order to contain them, it took me a lot of work to keep them in deep sleep. Now that these monsters have awakened, they definitely can¡¯t wait to tear apart all the living things in front of them. And this is just an appetizer!¡± As Doctor Ghost said this, his face was full of excitement and fanaticism. It was as though he had foreseen the scene where Link and the others were torn apart by the aberrated creatures! While he was talking, Link and the others on the basement floor one had started fighting with the group of aberrated monsters. A ck shadow shed by, and the head of a Stage Four aberrated monster exploded on the spot! The God Devourer Ant exuded an extremely ferocious aura. It was like a terrifying beast that had stepped into this world from a prehistord full of monsters. Each of its movements contained a mighty power that could tear the sky! Seraphim Yuna also let out a soft shout, waving the staff in her hand. ¡°Holy Light Purification!¡± Brilliant golden holy light rippled from the staff in her hand and swept across the group of aberrated monsters like water waves! The mental pollution affecting Xue Linglong and the others due to the appearance of arge number of aberrated monsters instantly disappeared! Holy mes also entangled the aberrated monsters that had pounced at the group first, turning them into huge fireballs! Zhao Yongkang and Li Geyang¡ªthese two powerhouses from No Retreat Army... Their hatred for these aberrated monsters was even stronger than the others, and they attacked together. The de¡¯s zing light and the light of various spells bloomed! The aberrated monsters were killed one after another, their flesh and blood sttering all over! Link faced the three strongest aberrated monsters alone. Due to the [Mask of the Faceless] on his face, the aura of madness and chaos exuding from all over his body was even stronger than the threepletely aberrated monsters! When the three aberrated monsters faced Link, their eyes¡ªwhich were filled with violence and madness¡ªfaintly showed fear. It seemed as if they were afraid of something, and they didn¡¯t dare to move for quite a while! Is this rank suppression again? said Link silently in his heart. The suppression from the [Mask of the Faceless] made the vast majority of aberrated creatures of a lower stage than Link not even dare to attack him. As for those at a higher stage than Link, they would also be deterred and suppressed, reducing their strength. Link wouldn¡¯t be polite with these monsters in front of him. The next moment, the sword energy around him erupted! Waves of sword energy¡ªstrong enough to destroy gold and stone¡ªgathered together and swept toward the three aberrated monsters like a river! [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique]! Link was surrounded by sword energy, looking like the king of swords. His white robe flew in the wind, his entire being looking otherworldly and magnificent! Boom! A sonic boom sounded as the air was torn apart! The three peak Stage Four aberrated monsters all felt a great sense of danger at this moment! The surging sword energy tore a series of terrible wounds on their bodies, causing foul blood to keep dripping from the wounds. The injuries to their bodies further aroused their fierceness, and the three aberrated monsters all screamed and attacked the river of sword energy. The huge aberrated monster that looked like a little giant waved its hands, and its ck, spear-like limbs actually shot out like arrows! Another one of the aberrated monsters moved at an extremely fast speed, clinging to the wall the instant the sword energy struck. It opened itsrge bloody mouth at this moment, spraying arge amount of liquid from its mouth, which flew toward Link! As for thest of the three aberrated monsters, its body surface hardened rapidly. When the sword energy hit its body, the attacks actually burst into sparks, and the sound of metals shing reverberated endlessly. This hardened monster rushed at Link frantically, its huge ws seemingly going to tear apart space and envelop Link! Even when facing these three aberrated monsters¡¯ attacks, Link¡¯s expression remained indifferent. He wasn¡¯t even afraid of Stage Five monsters, not to mention a few Stage Four aberrated creatures. With a flick of his wrist, golden sword light suddenly lit up, and the entire space was illuminated by the sword light with a magnificent aura! The venom spat out by the aberrated monster was evaporated by the scorching heat brought by the sword light before it even touched Link¡¯s body! The golden sword light continued to extend after that and directly tore the aberrated monster that had pouncing at Link into two parts! A sorrowful wail sounded, and the aberrated monster on the floor, No. 6¡ªwhich had been cut into two parts¡ªhad tentacle-like hyperstic tissue appearing from its broken body. It was as if the tissue was going to rejoin the two broken body parts. This was the aberrated creatures¡¯ terrifying regeneration ability. But sword energy¡ªwhich was even more violent than before¡ªcame one after another, directly smashing it into pieces. Thispletely cut off the possibility of regeneration. After seeing Linkpletely wipe out Aberrant Body No. 6 so easily, both the remaining two powerful aberrated creatures instinctively felt a chill and fear! The human in front of them was far more terrifying than the two of them, who were lost in madness! What¡¯s more, both these two peak Stage Four aberrated creatures instinctively wanted to escape. However, Link wouldn¡¯t give them this opportunity. Two rays of sword energy were shed out one after another. The space trembled faintly, and the sound of sonic booms exploded! The bodies of these two powerful aberrated creatures¡ªwhich were enough to make normal Stage Four powerhouses desperate¡ªsuddenly trembled as if they were facing the God of Death! They quickly made evasive movements, fleeing backward or to the side. But even though they were extremely fast, they still weren¡¯t as fast as the sword energy! The sword energy¡ªwhich was enough to kill ordinary Stage Five monsters¡ªarrived in no time! Chapter 144: Overpowering Kill! EXP Babies!

Chapter 144: Overpowering Kill! EXP Babies!

Boom! The terrifying sonic boom vibrated in the air as if it were going to tear a person¡¯s eardrums apart! The brilliant and dazzling sword light illuminated the entire space and even overwhelmed the sounds of battle caused by Xue Linglong and the others! At this moment, everything seemed to lose its color. Only the sword light shed out by Link was extremely brilliant, as if topete with the sun and the moon! Luo Xinghe, Xue Linglong, and the others suddenly paused in unison, looking at Link¡¯s battle. Aberrant Test Body No. 8 and Aberrant Test Body No. 13 let out a few exceedingly tragic roars and screams! The twisted aura in the air became more and more intense, and the strange and inexplicable whispers in everyone¡¯s ears also became clearer! The power of filth and depravity continued to gush out from the aberrated monsters, but it wasn¡¯t able topete with the ming sword light and the surging sword energy at all. These two aberrated creatures were strong enough to fight against Stage Five monsters and make the human powerhouses of the current stage feel desperate. At this time, they were like two small boats in the storm, constantly swaying and shaking in the storm! In an instant, the sharp sword light tore through all their efforts at resistance and aberrated bodies! The raging sword energy then rushed past like a tide,pletely extinguishing all the life energy in the two aberrated monsters! The contaminated flesh and blood sttered everywhere, and the surrounding alloy walls were also torn apart by the sword energy, creating many hideous ravines. The power of this attack was really terrifying! At the same time, a system prompt sounded in Link¡¯s ears. [Ding! Congrattions on killing a Stage Four, Level 9 Aberrant Body. Gained 150,000 EXP!] [Ding! Congrattions on killing a Stage Four, Level 10 Aberrant Body. Gained 180,000 EXP!] ... The increase in EXP brought Link closer to summoning the fourth summoned beast. Link had always weed such EXP babies. As for Luo Xinghe, Li Geyang, and the others¡ªwho were a little further away¡ªthey looked at this scene with slightly sluggish expressions. Even though it wasn¡¯t the first time they saw Link make an attack, they were still shocked by the power of this sword. They felt extremely amazed! ¡°That¡¯s three peak Stage Four monsters, right? The City Master actually killed them in a few seconds?!¡± ¡°The City Master¡¯s swordsmanship is really stunning!¡± Li Geyang couldn¡¯t help muttering with shock in his eyes. It should be known that aberrated monsters had all kinds of distortion abilities. They could even cause spiritual pollution to people, which made them far more difficult to handle than other monsters of the same stage and level! He and Zhao Yongkang were Stage Four powerhouses. Even so, they needed to cooperate with each other to fight a Stage Four, Level 3 aberrated monster. But now, in the blink of an eye, the strongest three monsters here were ughtered by Link alone. How could they not be shocked? It was a fact that Link was also a Stage Four being like them, but the difference inbat power was simply as far as heaven and earth! It wasn¡¯t just them. At this moment, the eyes of Doctor Ghost and the others in the main control room on the basement¡¯s third floor couldn¡¯t help but twitch a few times too! Doctor Ghost was even more shocked by Link¡¯s power, and a faint chill that froze the soul appeared in his heart! But an instantter, his chest was filled with shame and anger, especially when he saw Link¡¯s indifferent and casual expression on the screen after killing the three aberrated monsters! This almost made Doctor Ghost go crazy! His eyes faintly glowed red as if a fire was about to burst out from them! The three experimental Aberrant Bodies being instantly killed was tantamount to a heavy p on Doctor Ghost and ck Dragon¡¯s face! At this moment, the duo¡¯s faces were extremely ugly and gloomy! Gnash! Doctor Ghost¡¯s teeth clenched and rattled. The blue veins on his forehead violently popped out, and a few mechanical arms on his back¡ªwhich looked like octopus tentacles¡ªdanced wildly, bringing out a sharp sound of wind breaking! The corners of ck Dragon¡¯s mouth rose slightly, revealing a crazy and hideous smile. Jiang Cheng rubbed his chin and said in a deep voice, ¡°Link¡¯sbat power is probablyparable to some top Stage Five monsters. It isn¡¯t easy to have suchbat power at Stage Four!¡± Doctor Ghost said coldly, ¡°Humph! This is just the beginning! There are even more terrifying Aberrant Bodies waiting for himter! I¡¯m looking forward to experimenting with Link¡¯s body, making it into an aberrated weapon!¡± He and ck Dragon looked at each other, and the depths of both their pair of eyes were full of flickering cold light. In this base, in addition to the experimental bodies used to make aberrated weapons, there were also arge number of ck Dragon Gang members. Among them, many people had received gifts from the God of Evil, and theirbat power far exceeded ordinary [Doomsday Online] yers. But although the three members of the ck Dragon Gang¡ªwho were transformed into Stage Five Spiderhuman High Priests because of their fanatical worship of the Spider God¡ªhad gained power, they were also subjected to certain restrictions. They couldn¡¯t leave the God of Evil¡¯s altar, and the ck Dragon Gang also had difficulty controlling them. Otherwise, ck Dragon and Doctor Ghost would¡¯ve aberrated arge number of ck Dragon Gang members into Spiderhuman High Priests, further enhancing the base¡¯s strength. But with the ¡®Man-Made God¡¯ n, they would soon be able to get a suitable aberrated weapon... ... Basement floor one. After Link killed the three aberrated monsters, God Devourer Ant and Yuna also disyed their highbat power. Both these two summoned creatures were of the Super God-grade; theirbat power was far beyond those of the same level. Coupled with Yuna¡¯s holy light energy¡ªwhich had a certain degree of restraining power against these aberrated creatures¡ªit was even easier to fight against them. As the holy me and the God Devourer Ant¡¯s terrifying strength swept through, the aberrated monsters were directly smashed and then burned to ashes by the sacred me. The aberrated monsters were unable to resist at all! Xue Linglong, Luo Xinghe, and the others were also Stage Four powerhouses. Both theirbat awareness and experience weren¡¯t bad. They quickly wiped out the remaining rtively weak aberrated monsters. The ground was full of pieces of the aberrated monsters, as well as corpses still being burned by the holy me. Link led the others deeper into the base based on his sense of the breath of aberration. During this period, there was an alloy gate blocking their way. As a result, it was swiftly shattered by the God Devourer Ant! Link and his party charged in like a sharp sword, smashing all the obstacles in front of them. They continuously pushed forward, about to enter the basement¡¯s second level. At the same time, Doctor Ghost and ck Dragon also issued instructions speedily. The ck Dragon Gang¡¯s elite members all flocked to the second basement floor. Aberrated monsters¡ªwhich were forced to enter a state of dormancy through various means¡ªwere also awakened and ced in the area where Link and his group would set foot next... ... Second basement floor. Link and the others had only just stepped into a hugeboratory room when the strong bloody scent prated their noses! Even with the tenacity of their hearts, they also felt a strong sense of difort at this moment. They saw many containers in theboratory. Soaked in the light-green liquid within the containers were dismembered human organs and limbs. There were even several bloody human corpses on the test bench. Evil patterns were drawn on them, exuding a sphemous atmosphere. Upon seeing such a scene, Zhao Yongkang¡¯s eyes turned red, and he roared like a wounded beast. ¡°Damn the ck Dragon Gang!¡± At this time, a burst of sinisterughter suddenly sounded. ¡°Hehe, you aren¡¯t qualified to judge us yet. You should be concerned about yourselves first!¡± Chapter 145: Game! Distorted Shadows!

Chapter 145: Game! Distorted Shadows!

When Luo Xinghe and the others heard these words, their hearts moved slightly, and they looked in the direction of the sound. They saw that there was a loudspeaker in a corner of thisboratory, where the sneering words wereing from it. The cold light in Zhao Yongkang¡¯s eyes flickered. He raised his arms, and a de of light suddenly jumped out from the de, smashing the speaker on the spot! However, another sneer came¡ªthis time in another corner of theboratory. ¡°Getting into a rage from humiliation? Haha, I like to admire the looks of how you people are extremely angry but helpless!¡± Obviously, as this was the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s base, Doctor Ghost could mobilize all power and resources to target Link and his party. Destroying a speaker was just in vain. At the side, Xue Linglong reminded, ¡°They want to affect our emotions. Stay calm and don¡¯t let the enemy lead us by the nose.¡± Blue veins violently jumped on Zhao Yongkang¡¯s forehead, but he still restrained his anger and recovered hisposure. He wanted to pour all his anger on Doctor Ghost and ck Dragon instead of destroying stuff indiscriminately. ¡°Why aren¡¯t you attacking anymore? You people deeply want to avenge those who died, right? But do you people know that we are the true saviors of this world!?¡± Savior? Zhao Yongkang, Xue Linglong, and the others looked at the purgatory-like scene in front of them and the bloody corpses, their faces repeatedly changing. This was clearly a group of crazy executioners! Nobody responded, and mocking words came from the speaker again. ¡°Link, how about we y a game?¡± As the voicended, a projector in theboratory lit up. Scenes after scenes were cast out. In the picture were pale and thin human beings with faces full of despair. At this moment, they were like livestock imprisoned in a cage. And outside the cage, there was also a group of ck Dragon Gang members wearing white clothes. ¡°These are the little guinea pigs that I n to use for experiments. From now on, I will kill one person every minute. Time is limited; I hope you can save them.¡± The picture soon disappeared, and the sound from the loudspeaker stopped. Deathly silence enveloped this ce. Time ticked by, and everyone felt a sense of urgency appearing in their hearts. Every minute that they dyed would represent a life gone. But to rescue those imprisoned humans also meant stepping into a trap carefully arranged by the ck Dragon Gang. Everyone was in a dilemma. Zhao Yongkang couldn¡¯t help it anymore. He gritted his teeth and cursed, ¡°What a group of beasts!¡± At the same time, everyone heard the sound of the mechanical door opening and a grumpy roar, resounding in the corridor outside theboratory. An evil, twisted aura also swept toward everyone. It came from the aberrated monsters and experimental humans that were affected by the God of Evil¡¯s aura and had be crazy. They approached the group. Link¡¯s expression remained indifferent. ¡°I¡¯ll stop these monsters; the rest of you search the ce as quickly as possible to find the room where those people are held.¡± Having lived again, he wouldn¡¯t be threatened by the ck Dragon Gang with a few lives. However, one of his purposes ining here was to rescue [Insect Summoner] Luo Haoyue. This person would be of great use in the uing Zerg attack. But from the scenes that shed just now, Link was unable to tell if Luo Haoyue was among those detained. Link deemed it necessary to explore the entire second basement floor. As for the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s traps, he wasn¡¯t afraid of them at all! Hearing Link¡¯s words, everyone immediately found their mainstay. At this moment, time was extremely precious. Zhao Yongkang and the others didn¡¯t say much; they believed in Link¡¯s choice and strength. They left theboratory immediately, rushed to the front of the corridor, and started searching the second basement floor. Link also sent Seraphim Yuna and God Devourer Ant to assist Zhao Yongkang and the others. Link himself was standing in the corridor, holding the [King¡¯s Sword] as he stared at the other end of the corridor. The low breathing and footsteps sounded from the other end of the corridor. Due to the influence of the twisted aura, the lights in the corridor became extremely dim and flickered constantly. It was just like a scene in a ghost film, seemingly about to totally extinguish at any moment! An atmosphere of horror swept across the ce, but Link¡¯s eyes were cold¡ªthat was all. With mental power and perception far exceeding those of the same level, Link could detect that there were a dozen or so aberrated monsters approaching. Among them, there were no fewer than five monsters that had reached peak Stage Four! [God of Evil¡¯s Whispers] and [Cirrus Limbs] were activated in an instant! Under the [Mask of the Faceless]¡¯s effects, the chaos and madness exuding from all over Link became more and more majestic! Strange and inexplicable whispers filled the entire space. Translucent tentacles that existed between reality and virtual appeared beside Link, looking like spears ready to be fired! In a certain flicker of the dim light, there seemed to be a patch of distorted ck shadows quietly emerging from behind Link. And in the next sh of light, the shadow disappeared! The distorted ck shadow disappeared in a sh. But through the monitoring facilities, ck Dragon and the others were watching Link. Upon seeing this, their hearts all jumped, tingling as their scalps went numb! An unstoppable sense of fear filled their hearts. Cold sweat dripped in an instant, soaking their clothes! The ck shadow was indescribable. It was full of chaos and madness, extremely great and vast! ¡®He¡¯¡ªthe shadow¡ªseemed to be the source of Chaos itself, and ¡®His¡¯ breath made the world tremble! That being was definitely a supreme being! How could Link actually have this supreme being¡¯s presence on him?! Doctor Ghost, ck Dragon, and Jiang Cheng were all trembling in their hearts. When they nced at each other, they all saw the light of fear, horror, and incredulity in each other¡¯s eyes. ... The twisted aura swept through the corridor, and the roar continued. After Link released the [Mask of the Faceless]¡¯s ability, all the aberrated monsters felt the monstrous pressure¡ªwhich was a higher-ranked being¡¯s suppression, the majesty of a superior existence. They seemed to be facing a taboo being! Just the breath of chaos and madness alone already made most of the aberrated monsters lose the ability to move! The slightly weaker aberrated monster all fell to the ground. In a crawling posture, their bodies trembled uncontrobly. The inexplicable whispers filled their heads that were full of madness, making them [Aberrate] again! The translucent tentacles that appeared all around Link tore through the air, causing sonic booms. They then tore apart the monsters¡¯ bodies without hesitation! Only the five monsters whose strength reached the peak of Stage Four could withstand this suppression. But even they could only pathetically flee when facing Link¡¯s [Cirrus Limbs]. Their death and eternal silence was only a matter of time. On the other side. Zhao Yongkang, Luo Xinghe, and the others had searched severalboratories, but all they found were mostly materials for the study of aberration or ces filled with evil runes. They didn¡¯t find any living people at all. Soon, they came to a fork. Just as they were having difficulty making a choice, Yuna pointed to the road on the left and said, ¡°It should be in this direction. The scent that disgusts me is even stronger there!¡± Chapter 146: Sudden Change! Energy Cannon!

Chapter 146: Sudden Change! Energy Cannon!

Six-winged Angel Yuna possessed the holy attribute, and she was far more sensitive to twisted auras than Xue Linglong and the others. The crowd nodded and headed for the left fork. There were several emptyboratories on either side of the long hallway. The closer they got to the room at the end of the long hallway, the stronger the feeling of disgust in Yuna¡¯s heart. There was clearly a strong, unholy aura there¡ªwhich she could sense vaguely. ¡°This should be it. Everyone, be careful.¡± Xue Linglong held her spear tightly and spoke in a low voice as she looked at the closed alloy gate. Luo Xinghe and the others nodded silently, prepared for battle. God Devourer Ant stood in front of the alloy gate, raised its forelimbs, and sted toward it. The blue runes around its body¡ªwhich seemed to be filled with the purest truth between heaven and earth¡ªlit up. A savage and fierce aura then radiated in the area! Boom! A loud bang sounded! The gate, cast from a special alloy, instantly crumbled under the God Devourer Ant¡¯s terrifying force. The room was pitch ck. Thick, ink-like darkness surged, seemingly filled with an ominous presence. Yuna wielded her staff, letting out a holy ray of light. With it, the view of the room appeared before everyone. They only saw a drawing with crimson and twisted patterns in the wide room¡ªresembling children¡¯s graffiti¡ªand some kind of evil formation. The people in the pictures from the projector earlier on were held in the room¡¯s depths. ¡°Quick, save the people!¡± shouted Zhao Yongkang as he walked toward the imprisoned people. Xue Linglong and the others followed behind him, scanning their surroundings vigntly. However, no ck Dragon Gang members were seen in the room. Doubts arose in their hearts. The ten-plus people in the room¡¯s depths didn¡¯t show the slightest bit of joy when they saw the group¡¯s arrival. Instead, they appeared horrified. They opened their mouths and made hoarse noises as if to let out a warning! Zhao Yongkang and the others immediately stopped. A dull mechanical sound suddenly rang out in the room. Cannon barrels with strange glows popped out from the wall and aimed at Xue Linglong and the others, as well as the people being held. These were clearly Doctor Ghost¡¯s creations! The cannon barrels were covered with strange patterns, emitting faint green rays of light. A twisted aura brewed within the cannon, making one¡¯s scalp go numb with fear. Xue Linglong and the others¡¯ hearts throbbed, and a great sense of crisis spread from the bottom of their hearts. As if they had been targeted by a prehistoric beast, a chill rose from beneath their feet to the top of their heads. They could feel those weapons¡¯ horror and terrifying aura! The energy contained within those weapons was probably enough to tear even a Stage Four powerhouse apart! The most important thing was that a twisted, evil aura was emanating from the cannon holes. If they were contaminated by the aura, they would definitely be polluted, and it would cause an aberrated change in their bodies! ¡°Congrattions on finding this ce. As a reward, I grant you equal death.¡± The teasing voice sounded from one of the speakers. Everyone¡¯s expressions instantly turned cold. The next moment, a faint blue light bloomed in the pitch-ck cannon holes! Terrifying energy and evil aura intertwined and exploded out and headed toward the crowd! Even the air was turned into nothingness by the splendid beams of light! If one was hit by these horrible beams of light, even a Stage Four [Doomsday Online] yer would be seriously injured on the spot or even obliterated! Yuna swung her staff sharply. Radiant holy light energy intertwined in the air and turned into a shield wall. It was [Holy Light Blessing]! ... The main control room on the third basement floor. After Doctor Ghost turned on the energy cannons, he switched the screen back to the corridor where Link was. It seemed that Zhao Yongkang and his party were not worthy of their attention. Turning on the energy cannons was equivalent to sentencing them to their deaths. In Doctor Ghost, ck Dragon, and the others¡¯ hearts, Link was clearly the problematic one. At this point in the picture, most of the ten-plus aberrated monsters had been killed by Link. Broken limbs and pieces of flesh were scattered on the ground. Only two monsters remained on the loose. Link¡¯sbat power was extraordinary. It wasn¡¯t something that Stage Four [Doomsday Online] yers could have. In addition to the dark shadow that shed behind Link earlier, it added a hint of graveness to Doctor Ghost and the others¡¯ faces. Doctor Ghost looked at ck Dragon and slowly spoke. ¡°Gang Leader, Link is not simple. Even our elite team might not be able to kill him. We need you to act personally in order to avoid troubleter on.¡± The corners of ck Dragon¡¯s mouth twitched, and he said to Jiang Cheng, ¡°Please excuse me.¡± Then, he immediately turned around and headed out. His sickly face was icy cold and full of murderous intent. ... Second basement floor, the room which held the imprisoned people. Everyone let out a long breath. [Holy Light Blessing] was cast just in the nick of time, blocking the impact from the faint blue beams of light. Zhao Yongkang and his party¡ªas well as the ten-plus imprisoned [Doomsday Online] yers¡ªwere protected. The faint blue energy beams, wrapped in destruction and twisted aura, struck the golden holy light shield, stirring a circle of ripples. However, the energy beams were unable to prate the shield. Thankfully, Yuna was a Super God-grade summoned creature¡ªtruly powerful. Otherwise, it would truly be difficult to block these beams of light, which were capable of tearing Stage Four powerhouses apart! At this moment, Yuna stood in front of the crowd with her wings spread open. A golden swirl surrounded her, making her look iparably holy and sacred. It was as if gods and goddesses hade to save the living! The imprisoned people became a little out of sorts! It was like they were struck by lightning. Several of them froze and were dumbfounded. Thoughts of worship even appeared in their minds. Has the angele to save us? Some even opened their mouths wide. Their eyes were slightly red, and their faces were full of shock and surprise. They fell on their knees, kneeling toward Yuna. Their lifeless faces finally appeared a little brighter. Xue Linglong and the others didn¡¯t stay idle. Sword and spear glows shot out, destroying the cannons that were spewing light beams. Peace was finally restored to the area. Zhao Yongkang helped the shocked people¡ªwho had knelt down toward Yuna¡ªup and exined, ¡°You¡¯re safe now. This is Yuna, summoned by our City Master.¡± Upon hearing this, the rescued people were doubly surprised and shocked. Such a powerful holy angel is someone¡¯s summoned creature? Even a summoned creature is so powerful! What kind of existence is her master? As they spoke, Zhao Yongkang and the others checked on these people¡¯s injuries. ¡°Damn it! ck Dragon Gang actually destroyed their vocal cords. It was no wonder they couldn¡¯t speak just now.¡± Zhao Yongkang¡¯s face was filled with anger as he spoke with hatred. The imprisoned people had been subjected to inhumane abuse. Not only were their vocal cords damaged, but most of them were also polluted by the twisted aura. They even had varying aberrations on their bodies. When the crowd was receiving [Holy Light Purification], dull footsteps could be heard from outside the room. Xue Linglong and the others were immediately alerted and looked in the direction of the footsteps. A hint of graveness appeared on their faces at the same time! Chapter 147: Chaotic Equipment! Illusion!

Chapter 147: Chaotic Equipment! Illusion!

¡°All of you are actually still alive? But that¡¯s not a bad thing. Stage Four powerhouses are much stronger than these Stage One and Stage Two trash. Doctor Ghost and Gang Leader will be happy with such guinea pigs.¡± A group of people with all sorts of weapons walked into the room and looked at Zhao Yongkang and the others with hideous smiles on their faces. Panic and fear appeared on the faces of the [Doomsday Online] yers that had just been rescued! It was as though the ten-plus ck Dragon Gang members who walked into the room were their deepest nightmare. It made them tremble with fear! Zhao Yongkang and his party held their weapons tight; their gazes were cold. These ck Dragon Gang members were clearly the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s elites. They exuded a powerful aura. With their arrival, a palpitating pressure slowly pervaded the area! It was far beyond that of those researchers Zhao Yongkang and the others had met on basement floor one! These people were at least Stage Three, Level 8. Almost ten of them were Stage Four. Luo Xinghe couldn¡¯t help but gasp inwardly. It should be known that the ck Dragon Gang had gone up against Link and others previously and had lost arge number of elites. However, there was actually another group of such elites in the base. It was simply unconscionable! They actually cultivated so many powerhouses in such a short period of time. This must have something to do with the evil and unnatural experiments they are conducting! thought Luo Xinghe silently. The same twisted and depraved aura exuded from these ck Dragon Gang elites, and it made one feel ufortable. There were even very obvious aberrations on a few of the leaders¡¯ bodies. The bone spurs and eyeballs on their bodies made them look like monsters. They were terrifying enough to keep one awake at night. ¡°Using people as guinea pigs in your experiments¡ªyou beasts deserve to die!¡± Zhao Yongkang shouted and made the first move. [Shadow de Hero]¡ªa Diamond-grade profession¡ªwas no ordinary Fighter profession. With the activation of his exclusive skill, [Shadow de], the saber in Zhao Yongkang¡¯s hands tore through the air as he waved it and unleashed a series of de shadows! Every illusory de shadow had 50% of a real attack¡¯s power! The saber¡ªalong with the de shadows¡ªwhistled with wind and headed toward a ck Dragon Gang elite¡¯s head with a fierce st like thunder! That ck Dragon Gang elite¡¯s expression remained cold; he didn¡¯t panic at all. His arm shook as he held a long stick-like weapon. It seemed as if it hade to life! The filthy straps wrapped around the stick fell off quickly, revealing the stick¡¯s pitch-ck body. Along with a crackling sound, blood-red eyes opened one after another on the long, pitch-ck stick! Demonic and dazzling light suddenly bloomed in the room! As if he had been caught in a quagmire, Zhao Yongkang¡¯s movements became sluggish. The unleashed de shadows were actually obliterated by the demonic light! Under the bloodied eyes¡¯ re, Zhao Yongkang felt faint, and his heart palpitated. The light before Zhao Yongkang¡¯s eyes suddenly dimmed. The few ck Dragon Gang elites seemed to have suddenly aberrated. The corners of their mouths split to the back of their ears. Fangs appeared one by one, and the skin on their faces seemed to have melted, revealing the blood-red tissue underneath! Zhao Yongkang couldn¡¯t help but shudder at the sight. A burst of hoarse, eerie, and strangeughter suddenly sounded from behind him. Zhao Yongkang turned back sharply, only to see that Xue Linglong and the others had also aberrated. Their skin melted, pus dripped from their flesh, and grey tentacles with suckers grew from their body and iled around! ¡°Abandoning senses, glimpse... truth... ¡± ¡°Praise insanity... Praise... truth.¡± Strange whispers came from the surrounding people¡¯s mouths. At this moment, Zhao Yongkang seemed to have fallen into a crazy world. He was shocked, and his mind seemed to freeze. ¡°How did this happen? Everyone is aberrated?!¡± A chill immediately rose up from beneath his feet and rushed to the top of his head! Uncontainable fear and madness constantly invaded his mind! And this was just from Zhao Yongkang¡¯s vision. Xue Linglong and the others stood where they were; nothing had happened to them. From what they saw, after the demonic light shone on Zhao Yongkang, and his expression changed wildly. It was as if he had seen something extremely terrifying! Xue Linglong stared at the stick full of bloodied eyes and shouted, ¡°There¡¯s something wrong with their weapons! These should be pieces of chaotic equipment researched and created by Doctor Ghost!¡± Luo Xinghe felt the tug at his heartstrings and shouted at Zhao Yongkang. ¡°Big Brother Zhao, calm down. You have been confused by their chaotic equipment!¡± Chaotic equipment was made from the limbs of aberrated creatures and some materials tainted with evil aura. Compared to ordinary equipment, chaotic equipment was even more bizarre. This was because the special materials often possessed different types of evil abilities; they were unpredictable. Moreover, such equipment was like a source of pollution. It would cause mental pollution and aberration to the surrounding people. Link had previously collected a few Spiderhuman High Priest chelicerae with the intention of letting Fatty Lu Da craft equipment. Due to some technical constraints, there were no finished products yet. However, the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s elites were actually already using chaotic equipment crafted by Doctor Ghost! ¡°Rather insightful. Since you recognize our equipment, why don¡¯t you surrender by yourselves?¡± One of the ck Dragon Gang elite leaders let out a strangeugh; his expression was full of mockery! Zhao Yongkang¡ªwho was enveloped by the demonic light¡ªcontinuously shed the air and hissed under his breath. ¡°Don¡¯te over... Don¡¯te over!¡± He looked as if he was crazy; blood seeped out from the corners of his eyes. Yuna waved her staff and said delicately, ¡°Holy Light Purification!¡± Radiant, holy light suddenly lit up and rippled out like water waves. In an attempt to obliterate the influence and corrosion affecting Zhao Yongkang, the holy light and the light from the bloodied eyes collided with each other. Xue Linglong and the others also took action. [Silvermoon Sword Emperor] Luo Xinghe swung his longsword. A silver sword glow surrounded his body as if he were enveloped by ayer of moonlight. A silver de aura burst out of the swift and fierce de and shed at several ck Dragon Gang elites. Xue Linglong shouted, and her long spear was like a dragon out of water. Icy-blue energy gathered, bringing out a brilliant light. A cold glint shed on the spear that she whipped out and condensed into a dragon-shaped illusion! The sound of the clear and bright dragon¡¯s roar resounded, and the dragon-shaped illusion charged toward the ck Dragon Gang elites! ¡°Humph! Courting death!¡± The ck Dragon Gang elites¡¯ leader sneered. The next moment, a group of ck Dragon Gang members activated their chaotic equipment. A twisted, evil aura then instantly spread out! One ck Dragon Gang member¡ªwith a pair of giant scissors in his hand¡ªsuddenly broke free from his palm. He turned into a mouth full of blood and swallowed the roaring ice dragon. Another ck Dragon Gang member waved the long whip in his hand. A ck palm then appeared on the ground and grabbed Luo Xinghe¡¯s ankle! With the ck Dragon Gang using chaotic equipment, the blood-colored patterns drawn in the room were activated one after another, emitting dim light. Crazy illusions appeared in front of Xue Linglong and the others! Just when everyone in the ck Dragon Gang thought victory was in their hands, a figure suddenly stepped into the room! Chapter 148: Disregard the Pollution! Blessing!

Chapter 148: Disregard the Pollution! Blessing!

The group of ck Dragon Gang elites couldn¡¯t help but look. The figure that suddenly stepped into the room made them feel greatly pressured! Just looking at him made their hearts feel uneasy. It was like they were looking at the invincible, like they were facing a bottomless abyss. The figure was slender, his aura was overwhelming, and his white robe made him look like an immortal and a demon at the same time! It was Link, who had just killed an aberrated monster. Link scanned the room, and then he looked at the ten-plus ck Dragon Gang elites. Covered by the mask, he revealed a cold smile. A cold chill suddenly attacked. One ck Dragon Gang elite couldn¡¯t help but feel his hair stand on ends. Even the pieces of chaotic equipment in their hands were shaking as if they were afraid of something! This was the rank suppression caused by the [Mask of the Faceless]! Although Doctor Ghost had created chaotic equipment ahead of Unfallen City, it was clearly vastly different from Link¡¯s Myth-grade chaotic equipment! A bunch of chaotic equipment¡ªwhich seemed toe to life as if encountering a natural enemy or facing a supreme emperor¡ªwas oppressed. The pieces of equipment¡¯s power dropped suddenly! The ck Dragon Gang members¡ªwho were familiar with Link¡¯s battle record¡ªwere filled with anxiety. Cold sweat covered their foreheads. ¡°Link... If we give you over to the doctor, he will definitely be able to research more powerful chaotic equipment!¡± The leader of the ck Dragon Gang powerhouses, Wu Hai, stared at Link. His face was fierce and stern as he spoke. At the same time, he continuously infused magic power into his equipment. As the wisps of magic power entered the piece of equipment, the bloodied eyes that opened on the long stick became more and more demonic! The bloodied eyes opened and closed, and small, hair-like tentacles furiously grew from the stick and connected to the ground. The other ck Dragon Gang elites also began to infuse magic power into their chaotic equipment, connecting them to the ground or the wall. Buzz! Rumbling sounds could be heard in the room. Strange ripples, emanating a depraved, evil aura, unfurled from the evil patterns drawn on the surrounding ground and walls! Such weird graffiti-like patterns could be seen everywhere in the ck Dragon Gang base. They formed some kind of formation, channeling a distorted aura that didn¡¯t belong to this world. When they were dealing with Xue Linglong and others, these evil formations had already been activated by the ck Dragon Gang elites. At this moment, the formation was triggered by Wu Hai¡¯s long stick. Along with the ck Dragon Gang elites¡¯ enchantment, a terrifying power was unleashed by the formation! This power directly impacted and polluted one¡¯s soul! Once it made contact, it would drag one into a distorted illusion. It was more terrifying than what Zhao Yongkang and the others had faced! Such means of attack transcended the physical body. It corroded one¡¯s sanity and spirit, and it was hard to defend against! And this was where Doctor Ghost and ck Dragon¡¯s confidence came from. Any invader¡ªeven a Stage Five powerhouse¡ªwould lose their mind and turn into a mass of flesh and blood that would continue aberrating once corroded by this power. While watching the ripples approach Link, Wu Hai¡¯s face distorted with amusement. ¡°Haha, Link, you¡¯re indeed strong. You managed to destroy the altar we set up for the Lord and killed the terrifying Aberrant Bodies... But you¡¯re too arrogant and cocky. If you had attacked us straight away, you might¡¯ve had a slight chance to salvage the situation.¡± ¡°Now, even if you¡¯re a Stage Five powerhouse, you will still fall into uncontroble aberration and madness. You will gradually move toward self-destruction!¡± Link¡¯s expression did not change at all. He took a step forward and spoke with slightly quivering lips. ¡°Is that so?¡± In the next moment, terrifying gray ripples attacked him from all directions. However, the scene that the ck Dragon Gang looked forward to seeing did not happen. Their smiles froze, and they stood neatly at their original positions. They only saw Link standing proudly like ance, even though he faced the ripples¡¯ impact. His eyes remained cool and calm, and he didn¡¯t look confused at all. A misty light bloomed from Link¡¯s body. The passive skill, [Fearless], had instantly been activated to counteract the ripples¡¯ effects. Link¡¯s naked skin glowed like a wless jade sculpture. Under the reflection¡¯s light, he looked like a god on Earth¡ªgrand and magnificent! With [Fearless]¡¯s passive blessing¡ªcoupled with the mental strength increase from the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep]¡ªLink¡¯s resistance to mental impacts and mental pollution was simply beyond imagination! One should know that Link didn¡¯t even fall into madness when he faced the Spider God. It was even more impossible at this moment! The group of ck Dragon Gang elites was deeply shocked by this scene! It was as though their hearts had encountered a storm; monstrous waves rolled up! ¡°How can this be? Why are you not affected?¡± eximed the ck Dragon Gang powerhouse, Wu Hai. His expression changed, and the corners of his eyes twitched. The other ck Dragon Gang elites¡¯ faces were filled with shock and disbelief. They stared so hard that their eyeballs almost fell out of their sockets! Link¡¯s current status waspletely out of their expectations! Those distorted ripples were enchanted by all of them! It targeted and attacked one mentally¡ªeven a Stage Five powerhouse wouldn¡¯t be able to resist it! However, Link seemed to bepletely unaffected. His eyes were still bright and clear, making it hard for the group of ck Dragon Gang elites to believe their eyes. The failure of the invincible ability shattered their worldviews instantly. Many ck Dragon Gang elites were dumbfounded! Facing the grey ripples, Link did not give them time to be shocked. With a flick of his wrist, a ray of golden sword light suddenly shot out. Crack! Crackling sounds were heard. Wu Hai¡¯s arm¡ªwhich was holding a piece of chaotic equipment¡ªwas cut off directly. Before the pitch-ck stick fell to the ground, translucent tentacles shot out from around Link¡¯s body, sting into the air with a boom! In Wu Hai¡¯s horrified gaze, a tentacle pierced through his body and took away the long, demonic stick. Wu Hai¡¯s broken body fell to the ground with a thump, split into many parts. The ck Dragon Gang elites¡¯ hearts shrunk, and their scalps went numb! Link nced at the long demonic stick swept up by the tentacle, and a yful expression shed in his eyes. Beams of bright light instantly enveloped the long stick. When the light disappeared, the long stick that appeared in front of everyone became more demonic and even more terrifying! Tentacles with mouths grew from the top of the long stick, densely filled with rolling eyeballs. The moment this demonic stick appeared, several tentacles grew wildly. The mouth on top opened and directly swallowed two ck Dragon Gang elites¡¯ heads! ¡°Interesting,¡± stated Link calmly. At the same time, mad and sharpughter came from behind Link. ¡°It seems you also love insanity and distortion. Perhaps we don¡¯t have to be enemies. Why don¡¯t you join us?!¡± Chapter 149: Fighting Black Dragon! One Sword!

Chapter 149: Fighting ck Dragon! One Sword!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios As the voice sounded, a figure clothed in a ck cloak¡ªwith the entire face shrouded beneath the hood¡ªslowly walked over. But Link acted as if he had not heard him andpletely dismissed him. As his thoughts moved, the long, demonic stick¡ªcontrolled by the Cirrus Limbs¡ªradiated a strange scarlet light. The swarm of chilling eyeballs on the stick spun round and round. Filthy, sphemous whispers flowed out. The ck Dragon Gang elite, who had the scarlet light shine on him, instantly stiffened. His eyes became empty, and he revealed a look of extreme terror as if he had seen a great horror. Piteous cries also sounded in the room! But very soon, the cries stopped. Their heads were gnawed at by therge cirrus mouths that crept out from the long stick, emitting the crunching sounds of chewing! The cirri that extended out from the long stick became even thicker and brawnier! The eyeballs on the stick turned blood red as if they had engorged with blood, bing even more hideous and fearsome! The remaining few ck Dragon Gang elites were deathly pale. A chill madly spread in their hearts. Fear swept across their bodies like wind, and cold sweat surged! Some people took to their heels with shaking legs, but the speed at which the cirri at the top of the stick extended was even faster than their escaping speed! One after another, the ck Dragon Gang elites had their heads gnawed off. Following the continuous [Ingestion], the number of eyes on the long staff was actually still increasing! For every head it devoured, two more eyeballs¡ªfilled with resentment and despair¡ªappeared on the stick. The remaining ck Dragon Gang elites turned wrathful in their hearts upon seeing that they had no hopes of escaping. They activated the chaotic equipment in their hands to attack Link, wanting to fight for a slim chance of survival for themselves. Sounds of the wind being cut through exploded, containing a frightening might that crushed the cirri¡ªwhich were about to spread out! But through Link¡¯s blessing, the long stick¡¯s grade had been raised, and it was even more demonic. In addition, as Link controlled it, its might had skyrocketed. It definitely wasn¡¯t something the ck Dragon Gang elites could counter! The dense cirri meandered like pythons. After being chopped off, even more new cirri grew out. Very soon, these slimy cirri gradually wrapped around the remaining ck Dragon Gang members, binding their ankles and bodies! In merely a moment¡¯s time, the remaining few ck Dragon Gang elites had cirri fully coiled around them like individual stout spheres! ¡°Gang Leader, save us! Kill him! Kill him!¡± ¡°Gang Leader, help!¡± ... The ck Dragon Gang members¡ªwho were hanging onto theirst breath of life¡ªcontinuously cried for the help of the figure standing outside the room. However, ck Dragon only watched on with great interest and had no intention of acting. So much so that he was even filled with anticipation in his heart. He thought inwardly, One can get addicted to releasing the evil intentions in their heart. Chaotic equipment isn¡¯t that good to use. Once Link is unable to break away from the madness and distortion, Doctor and I will be able to obtain a new piece of material!¡± ck Dragon licked the chapped corners of his lips. A hint of greed and heat shed across his eyes, which stared at Link. He knew that Link would certainly be an excellent piece of material! Very soon, about ten of the ck Dragon Gang elites were all killed and devoured. The stick of bloodied eyes before Link also appeared to be even more bloated. The interior of therge room turned quiet. Only the rustling sounds emitting from the turning eyeballs and the roving cirri with mouths could be heard. Xue Linglong and the others were all rather dazed at this point. After Link seized the long stick, Yuna also cast [Holy Light Purification], allowing them to recover from the illusion slowly. Upon witnessing all of this, they couldn¡¯t help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. Shock was written all over their faces, and they didn¡¯t know what to say at all. Link was like an unconquerable demon lord. In front of him, the ten-plus ck Dragon Gang members¡ªarmed with chaotic equipment¡ªactually became sheep with absolutely no way of fighting back. In a mere few minutes, they were devoured clean! Fortunately, such a figure was standing on their side; otherwise, the consequences would truly be inconceivable! The rescued civilians also wore dazed looks; their hearts were full of shock and appalment! The ck Dragon Gang members¡ªwho were originally like a nightmare in their hearts¡ªwere actually so vulnerable before the white-robed man! It made them surprised but also fearful. Once more, ck Dragon Gang said, ¡°How is it? This piece of equipment is really good, isn¡¯t it? Join us; the ck Dragon Gang is the ce that truly suits you. We embrace reality; we embrace madness and distortion. All things in this world are our resources for us to be stronger!¡± As they listened to this evil discourse, a hint of nervousness appeared on Zhao Yongkang and the others¡¯ faces. They were truly a little worried that Link would be bewitched by the ck Dragon Gang. Just the thought of making an enemy of Link made everybody¡¯s hair stand on end! Link turned around slowly and faced ck Dragon. An icy glow fluctuated in his gaze, and he totally couldn¡¯t be bothered to speak to this lunatic. Whether it was chaotic equipment or all sorts of mysterious abilities, Link only regarded them as a sharp de in his hand. He was the person controlling the weapon; it was impossible for him to be controlled by the madness and twistedness contained within the weapon. With a thought, the cirri manipted the long stick of eyeballs to point toward ck Dragon. The cirri¡ªwhich crept out of the ground and the walls¡ªinstantly became active. Like pythons, they carried a fearsome aura and shot toward ck Dragon! ck Dragon¡¯s gaze instantly turned cold. ¡°It seems like you have already made a choice.¡± He swung his arm. A jet-ck longsword appeared in his hand and brought out a pitch-ck sword glow. The light of the de shed across and chopped off the dense cirri that shot over. ck Dragon¡¯s lips moved slightly, and he even continued to chant in a low voice. An obscure incantation sounded! Link instantly sensed something amiss. The long stick¡ªwhich was originally being controlled by the Cirrus Limbs¡ªbecame restless. As if a certain kind of inhibition had been broken, the crimson eyeballs carrying hatred actually stared at Link! When he finished chanting the incantation, ck Dragon said with a contemtive smile, ¡°The equipment that Doctor Ghost developed isn¡¯t that easy to wield.¡± In the next moment, the cirri actually came striking toward Link! In addition, the bloodied eyes on the long stick released a wave, wanting to counter-corrode Link¡¯s [Cirrus Limbs]! Since some kind of inhibition within the chaotic equipment was removed, this long, demonic stick actually began [Bacsh]! These were clearly tricks that Doctor Ghost had specially left behind when producing these pieces of equipment! Xue Linglong¡¯s heart instantly clenched. ¡°Lord, look out!¡± The hearts within Luo Xinghe and the others¡¯ chests also dropped; they looked full of worry and astonishment. ¡°The weapon also dares devour its owner?¡± An icy voice sounded, apanied by the roar of exploding air! The long stick covered in eyeballs was directly ripped apart, crushed, and turned into a pool of filthy minced flesh by Link¡¯s [Cirrus Limbs]. The cirri that extended out from the long stick also rotted swiftly, turning into pus. In terms of grade and might, even the long stick¡ªwhich had been blessed¡ªcouldn¡¯tpete with the [Mask of the Faceless]¡¯s status. Afterward, streaks of sharp sword energy flew out of Link¡¯s body. His white robes pped¡ªgraceful like an immortal! The [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique] was instantlyunched! Waves of sword intent dispersed. The fiery sword glow seemed as if it was about to cut through space and ruthlessly mmed toward ck Dragon! Chapter 150: Stage Five Star-rank! God of Evil鈥檚 Reward!

Chapter 150: Stage Five Star-rank! God of Evil¡¯s Reward!

The majestic sword energy, tempestuous like a tide, instantly arrived with the sword ray! Given Link¡¯s present attributes, this casual strike was enough to kill a Stage Four existence¡ªit could even threaten a Stage Five powerhouse! The sharp intent was extremely terrifying! Even Xue Linglong and the others¡ªwho were spectating from afar¡ªfelt stabbing pain rise in their eyes as if they were being pricked by needles. ck Dragon arched his brow and actually did not dodge. The jet-ck longsword in his hand swung out, greeting Link¡¯s strike. The suppression all over his body diffused, and a pitch-ck sword glow emerged from his de! At the same time, streaks of gray energy gathered in front of ck Dragon, forming spider chelicerae that resembled spears. The eight chelicerae were thick and sharp, radiating a sinister aura. It made Zhao Yongkang andpany all sense palpitation! ¡°This...¡± Zhao Yongkang and Li Geyang¡¯s countenances instantly changed, and even their eyes narrowed slightly. They were no strangers to this aura. Previously, the ck Dragon Gang had set up a God of Evil altar at the No Retreat Army¡¯s base. The closer an area was to the altar, the stronger the aura that made one uneasy or even fearful! At the thought of the people ughtered by the aberrated monsters and Undead creatures on that day, Zhao Yongkang¡¯s heart was full of killing intent! In front of ck Dragon, eight chelicerae¡ªformed with gray aura¡ªpierced out together with the pitch-ck sword glow and harshly mmed into the torrent of sword energy that came surging! Boom! Boom! A frightening sonic boom sted in the room. The eight chelicerae and pitch-ck sword glow crushed the streaks of sword energy that came striking! The two people¡¯sbat ability far exceeded those of the same level. When the attacks collided, they even burst out with might that only Stage Five Star-rank powerhouses could reach! The ravaging st was like a storm. The chaotic sword energy and dancing chelicerae even ripped out deep rifts in the ground and walls that were made of alloy! Alloy shards shot out, and sparks flew in all directions. This ce was in danger of copsing at any time! Luo Xinghe and the others were presently shocked in their hearts. This was merely the might of the two people shing with one strike, yet it was already this terrifying. If the two of them were to exchange more blows here, the repercussions of the battle would probably be enough to destroy the low-level [Doomsday Online] yers that they¡¯d rescued! ¡°Both these two people must be monsters!¡± Several people could not help but think this inwardly. ... Presently, in the main control room on basement floor three. Doctor Ghost¡ªwho initially wore a grim look after seeing Link kill the group of ck Dragon Gang elites¡ªnow had a smile hanging on the corners of his lips once more. Jiang Cheng probed, ¡°Everything should go well this time?¡± Doctor Ghost icily stared at Link in the image and spoke to Jiang Cheng, who was by the side. ¡°Don¡¯t worry; this Link is sure to lose! Gang Leader ck Dragon¡¯s own level has already reached Stage Four, Level 10. And with the chaotic equipment, [Abyss Che Shadow], that I created, even the average Stage Five powerhouse might not be his match!¡± ¡°If Gang Leader triggers the rewards from the Lord within his body, his capabilities will be further amplified. He will reach an exceedingly fearsome state, even surpassing the Stage Five Spiderhuman High Priests!¡± ¡°Link battled many Aberrant Bodies earlier; his stamina and magic power have surely been tremendously consumed. Presently, he is already a spent force, so how can he contend with Gang Leader?¡± Jiang Cheng nodded lightly, a hint of anticipation shing across his face. He could not wait to figure out the secrets hidden in Link! ... Basement floor two. Sonic booms sounded ceaselessly. The two figures shed and separated like meteors, fighting from one room to another! The walls and doors forged from alloy were like fragile sheets of paper under their attacks¡ªeasily torn apart! ck Dragon held the strongest chaotic equipment that Doctor Ghost had created, [Abyss Che Shadow]. However, he was still at a disadvantage when facing Link. So much so that, the more they fought, the more obvious this feeling of suppression was! It caused a burst of madness to emerge vaguely at the bottom of ck Dragon¡¯s heart. He wanted to stop at nothing to destroy the person before himpletely! Another collision! The eight chelicerae that condensed before ck Dragon were crushed by the Cirrus Limbs that extended from Link¡¯s mental strength. Even his whole body was swept away and sent flying! Boom! ck Dragon crashed into aboratory bench,pletely smashing the apparatus; electric sparks flew in all directions. However, a twisted smile suddenly revealed itself on ck Dragon¡¯s face. This smile, put together with that sickly face of his, appeared to be even more sinister! ¡°Link, you¡¯re really good! You¡¯re much stronger than those feeble pieces of trash! Are you really unwilling to join us?¡± Link did not speak; only his gaze was ice cold. Behind him, Zhao Yongkang and the others yelled out loud without hesitation. ¡°ck Dragon Gang, you lunatics! Don¡¯t try to bewitch our City Master!¡± ¡°Exactly, our Lord will annihte your entire ck Dragon Gang today!¡± ... ck Dragon¡¯sughter became increasingly cold. He stared at the unresponsive Link and said crazily, ¡°Then, you¡¯d better start running for your life now. Subsequently, I¡¯m really worried that I will inadvertently crush you to death!¡± When his words fell, ck Dragon reached out and tapped on his own forehead and chest a few times. It seemed to be some kind of special ritual procedure. Meanwhile, obscure, sphemous murmurs also rose with it. ¡°Exceeding the boundaries of time and space, the eternally existing Spider God. May your name be celebrated. I wish to, before that massive bridge is built, carry out your will in the world... Just like that infinitely distant, infinitely approaching Dreands, the spiderweb will envelop the world...¡± Apanying ck Dragon¡¯s low chanting, strange auras radiated outward! In a trance, a scene that existed between reality and illusion seemed to appear before everyone¡¯s eyes. Inside an extremely spacious darkir, pieces of spider silk hung above. Extremely thick spider silk connected to one another, looking like pirs that held up the zenith! In the depths of the spider silk that resembled the pirs of heavens, there seemed to be a figure present. It was indescribable, extremely vast, and mighty! The image was fleeting. Everyone seemed to return to reality from their dreams, and their hearts were filled with shock and fear. Their backs were already soaked, dripping wet with cold sweat! ¡°Is that the Lord who Gang Leader ck Dragon spoke of?¡± Luo Xinghe and the others were inwardly startled, and even their minds suffered a significant impact. The influence of imagination and madness made them feel as if they¡¯d seen many twisted spider figures and spiderwebs that came shrouding toward them. Yuna swung her staff, and holy light radiated, dispelling the effects of pollution for everyone. With [Fearless] protecting Link, he was not affected. He only stared at ck Dragon. Presently, a twisted aura and suppression¡ªmultiple times more dominant than earlier¡ªspread from ck Dragon. They appeared to be even more powerful and sinister than those of the Spiderhuman High Priests that Link had fought previously. Blisters appeared on the surface of his body. ck Dragon¡¯s flesh and skin were ripped open, and many hideous chelicerae emerged from within! Within a few moments, ck Dragon had been transformed. He turned into a spider monster that was unlike a human! Evidently, ck Dragon hadn¡¯t demonstrated his all earlier. This new appearance was now his true form after triggering the rewards from the Spider God! Chapter 151: Holy Sword of the Light! Domain!

Chapter 151: Holy Sword of the Light! Domain!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios A majestic and twisted presence spread from ck Dragon. The powerful force sted outward, and an intense suppression swept across the area! The air seemed to solidify¡ªthis might had surpassed that of a Stage Four powerhouse and reached the Stage Five Star-rank! The great suppression and dark, sphemous aura came mming toward everyone like a mountain! Zhao Yongkang and the others all turned slightly pale. They felt like their throats had constricted, and they suffocated slightly! Coupled with the effects of witnessing the strange scene earlier, piercing screams seemed to be sounding by their ears! In the corners beyond their sight, there also seemed to be unknown monsters present, quietly watching them... It was unknown whether this was an illusion or the influence of imagination. It sent a chill down their spines, and goosebumps rose all over their bodies. Emotions of fear, surprise, and horror shed through their eyes one by one. ¡°This is... Stage Five star-rank!¡± ¡°ck Dragon Gang¡¯s Gang Leader has already broken through to this level at the current stage?¡± The corners of Zhao Yongkang¡¯s eyes twitched¡ªhe was leftpletely speechless! Hints of surprise also shed across Xue Linglong and Luo Xinghe¡¯s faces, but they were clearly much moreposed than Zhao Yongkang. After all, having experienced all kinds of incredible matters, they¡¯d long been steeled by Link to have an extremely tough disposition. In addition, the two of them both had extremely high, even slightly blind, confidence in their Lord. Even if ck Dragon was a Stage Five powerhouse, he might not necessarily be able to contend with their Lord! Upon catching the surprise, shock, and those traces of fear that flickered across Zhao Yongkang and the others¡¯ faces, a hint of a smile appeared on ck Dragon¡¯s monstrously hideous face. Blurry and indistinct voices came from his mouth, along with shrill cries. ¡°Yes, that¡¯s the way! Use your fear to please me!¡± ck Dragon then looked toward Link. The skin and flesh on his face turned out, and pitch-ck spider eyes opened in session, glowing with a menacing gleam. However, Link¡ªwho was right in front of him¡ªdidn¡¯t have the slightest astonishment or fear on his face. Link still wore his usual aloofness on his face. This made ck Dragon feel some surprise and fear¡ªit was contempt for him! Originally, after unleashing the God of Evil¡¯s rewards and entering this form, ck Dragon¡¯s human rationality would be suppressed. Presently, he was all the more unable to prevent the anger in his heart from surging. He wished to rip Link apart! ¡°Go and die!¡± Amidst the cry, ck Dragon¡¯s figure shed and swiftly drew close! The [Abyss Che Shadow] in his hand was already attached to his aberrated flesh. It shed down together with the sharp chelicerae! Boom! The air was ripped apart, releasing a jarring roar! The chelicerae and de gleams¡ªwhich came striking from all directions¡ªwere like a huge inteced, seeking to envelop Link! ck Dragon was presently demonstrating the strength of a Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse vividly! If this strike was to hit, even the top Stage Four powerhouse would turn into a pool of minced flesh. This was the difference in capabilities. The gap between a Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse and Stage Four powerhouse was like a chasm. An ordinary Stage Four existence could only be crushed by a Star-rank powerhouse! However, ck Dragon wasn¡¯t the only one holding back. Link had also not given his all earlier. After all, the destructive capabilities of ck Dragon and himself were too great. If they really were to battle without caring for the consequences, those rescued, low-level [Doomsday Online] yers would barely be able to survive the fight¡¯s repercussions. So much so that they would even suffer aberration under the influence of the twisted aura all around ck Dragon! Hence, Link was only suppressing ck Dragon earlier, forcing him to change the battle location. Now that the group of low-level yers were under God Devourer Ant and Li Geyang¡¯s protection and were quite a distance from this area, Link could properly have some fun with ck Dragon. As his thoughts moved, Link went into a charging posture with the [King¡¯s Sword] in hand. Streaks of brilliant gold light directly rose from him! [Holy Charge] was instantly activated! During the charging process, [Holy Charge] granted a person immunity to all control effects and damage. It also couldn¡¯t be interrupted. The de gleam and chelicerae shadows that came shrouding toward Link werepletely blocked by the golden light! Presently, golden light spread all around Link. Like a gold longsword, he charged forward irresistibly! ck Dragon¡¯s gaze froze slightly. In the next moment, the longsword in Link¡¯s grip had already collided with his stout body that had deviated from human form! Thump! With an explosion, ck Dragon was forcefully sent flying and suffered the stun effect. But due to his current form¡¯s distinctness, the stun effect vanished in an instant. Within this split second, Link had already swung out another strike! Streaks of golden light gathered around the [King¡¯s Sword], and ayer of radiance covered the already slender sword. Both its length and breadth then increased rapidly. At the same time, a holy and vast aura rippled outward! Link was like a god that wielded light. He swung down the holy sword of judgment towards the evil! It was the [Holy Spirit Ne]¡¯s active skill, [Holy Sword of the Light]! The wearer could activate the power of light inside to condense and form the Holy Sword of the Light. It would cause light damage that was 1,000% of the wearer¡¯s Intelligence attribute! Light damage belonged to attribute damage; it also had the effect of increasing damage dealt to the current ck Dragon! The sword shed down. Together with Link¡¯s attributes that far exceeded those of his peers, the sword¡¯s might was exceedingly terrifying! Even ck Dragon¡ªwho had turned into a Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse¡ªinvoluntarily felt his heart drop for a moment. He felt an intense sense of crisis! A hint of fear and wariness shed through all eight spider eyes! Pu chi! The bones that covered the surface of ck Dragon¡¯s body¡ªeven tougher than alloy¡ªwere directly split open by this strike. Filthy fresh blood sttered on the ground! A sharp, agonizing cry instantly sounded! ck Dragon¡¯s right shoulder and a small half of his body were directly ripped off. It wriggled on the ground by itself. Through that tattered opening, one could even see the organs squirming in ck Dragon¡¯s non-human body! ¡°How is this possible? You are merely a Stage Four powerhouse, so how can you tear open my body so easily?!¡± ck Dragon¡¯s heart was filled with disbelief and surprise. One must know that ck Dragon had gained an overall boost after he triggered the rewards within his body. Even a Stage Five monster might not necessarily be able to break through the defense on his body surface for a time! Meanwhile, Link only used one strike and almost took his life then and there. How was this possible? Some wavering seemed to have urred in his original faith! Link did not reply, but his mental strength extended forward, turning into translucent tentacles that were half-virtual and half-corporeal. They prated the air like spears and headed to kill ck Dragon! ¡°Damn it!¡± ck Dragon gnashed his teeth harshly. He felt a sense of contempt; it seemed like Link absolutely didn¡¯t care to speak with him. This made ck Dragon even more furious and insane. Demonic glows bloomed in his many eyeballs, and a dreamlike aura spread! Indescribable murmurs sounded as if it sought to drag one into the Dreands! This was a domain! The greatest difference between a Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse and a Stage Four powerhouse was that the former could preliminarily build a domain that belonged to themselves. Gaining the support of domains would bring all sorts of extraordinary effects! Lines of spider silk extended out from beneath ck Dragon¡¯s feet. Filthy puddles of water also crossed among them, and tentacles seemed to be swimming in those puddles! Chapter 152: Kill Black Dragon! Break Out of the Cocoon!

Chapter 152: Kill ck Dragon! Break Out of the Cocoon!

The domain spread rapidly, turning an area with a radius of tens of meters around ck Dragon¡¯s feet into a domain of [Madness]! This was a gift from the God of Evil, one of the rewards he gained through sacrificing numerous lives to the god. A Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse¡¯s domain was the embodiment of the nomologicalws that they touched, which could rewrite the surrounding matter and rules to a certain extent. The strength and scope of the domain also reflected the Stage Five powerhouse¡¯s respective strength and abilities! The rapidly spreading domain under ck Dragon¡¯s feet was obviously very evil and extremely dangerous. Xue Linglong and the others¡¯ expressions looked a little ugly, and they stepped back to avoid the spreading domain. Link¡ªwho was at the center of the battle¡ªwas unable to avoid the domain because of his position, and he could only face the [Madness] domain head-on. Sounds of neighs rang in Link¡¯s ears, and a sense of stagnation coursed throughout his body. It was as though his body had turned into prey wrapped in spider silk. It seemed as if strands of invisible spider silk bound his hands and feet. There was also a constant force that eroded his spirit and tried to pull him into a dream. Twisted spider shadows shed in front of Link¡¯s eyes. Tentacles were sticking out from the muddy puddles of water scattered within the spider silk, shaking like an iron whip. They broke through the air and swept toward Link. [Fearless]¡¯s passive ability allowed Link to resist the spiritual erosion and pollution. The tentacles that struck Link one after another were shattered by the sword energy surging through Link¡¯s body. Although Link¡¯s condition was countless times better than ordinary Stage Four powerhouses when caught in a domain, the domain¡¯s negative influence still existed. Using the chelicerae that extended from his back, ck Dragon walked inside the domain and slowly approached Link. His condescending face was full of brutal killing intent! His broken body also seemed to be quickly repaired under the domain¡¯s effect. Tiny tentacles were squirming around in his wounds, building muscle tissue. The corners of Link¡¯s mouth rose slightly. Instead of fear in his eyes, there was more fighting spirit in his eyes. In the next moment, power¡ªeven more majestic than what ck Dragon possessed¡ªexuded from Link! It was as if a god wasing to this mortal world. Even the vast sky and earth would tremble under this pressure! It was the [Witness of the Myth]¡¯s passive skill¡ª[God¡¯s Aura]! A twisted spider shadow shed behind Link! It was a huge and mighty existence with an endless figure, and its outline couldn¡¯t be seen! The monstrous pressure swept through, and it felt more like a nomological power! One mustn¡¯t look at a god directly! The six eyes of ck Dragon¡ªwho was looking down at Link condescendingly¡ªwidened at the same time! Various expressions shed on his distorted and ugly face: shock, fear, disbelief, and incredulity. His expression looked a little funny! This aura, this majestic pressure of a god-like being¡ªit wasn¡¯t a stranger to him! It was the aura of the Lord he sacrificed people to¡ªthe Spider God! In a daze, he almost thought that the god who weaved the giant in the dream realm was descending before his eyes! Since this pressure belonged to the god that ck Dragon himself worshiped, he found it even more difficult to resist. What¡¯s more, ck Dragon even wanted to kneel down toward Link! The eight chelicerae supporting ck Dragon slightly trembled as if an invisible palm had been ced on his head and continuously pressed down! ck Dragon gritted his teeth and resisted the pressure with all his strength, but he still lowered his head, and his body was slowly being pressed down. ¡°No!¡± ck Dragon let out a roar; his face was full of unwillingness and ferociousness. However, the eight chelicerae were still bending down and trembling slightly, and he could no longer look down on Link from a greater height! The domain under ck Dragon¡¯s feet was also suppressed by the god¡¯s aura. Its effects were reduced, and even its range was somewhat shrinking. Link watched this scene, the cold light in his eyes flickering. The deterrent effect was triggered, and it was unexpectedly effective! Without hesitation, he swung the [King¡¯s Sword] again! A thick aura of death rippled, and dark energy gathered on the de, beingpressed to the extreme! This was the death and eternal silence that all living creatures feared! [Death Judgment] activate! Behind Link, a figure suddenly appeared. It was an existence wearing a ck cloak! This figure seemed to be Death itself, and the strong aura of death seemed to turn this ce into the Underworld! A giant silver scythe swung out at the same time! Swoosh! Amidst the sound of wind being cut through, the giant scythe and the sword arrived at the same time! A shadow of death hung over ck Dragon! This was already the third godly aura that ck Dragon sensed from Link. At this moment, even someone filled with madness like him also felt a burst of palpitations and fear! Compared with this man opposite him, it was as if ck Dragon wasn¡¯t a terrifying cult leader at all. Instead, he seemed to be amb that waited to be ughtered! Amidst the horrifying sword energy, the chelicerae and body surrounding ck Dragon¡¯s main body were shattered inch by inch like broken porcin, turning into pieces of meat that flew everywhere! Poom! The broken bodynded hard in the rubble. The instant death effect wasn¡¯t triggered, but the power of death was enough to destroy ck Dragon¡¯s lifeforce! Even the powerful regeneration ability belonging to an aberrated Stage Five powerhouse was unable to resist the power of death¡¯s invasion. It couldn¡¯t stop the power of death from taking ck Dragon¡¯s life away. ck Dragon panted violently, feeling his own vitality quickly seeping away in horror. His broken body quickly withered and decayed as if it had been dead for several years or even more than a decade! ... The control room on basement floor three. Doctor Ghost almost went silly from what he saw. His expression was dull, and his face was full of horror! As if struck by a thunderstorm, his head was nk, and his ears hummed. He was unable to believe that what he saw was real! ck Dragon was actually defeated?! Jiang Cheng¡ªwho was standing beside him¡ªwas also full of horror, but he immediately shouted at Link through the equipment by the side. ¡°Link! You mustn¡¯t kill him!¡± Jiang Cheng¡¯s anxious voice came from a speaker on the second floor. But Link just smiled and said nomittally, ¡°He¡¯s already dead.¡± Indeed, as Link said, ck Dragon had lost his breath under the power of death¡¯s erosion. Fear and despair still remained on his face... ¡°The organization won¡¯t let you off!¡± Finally, such angry words came from the speaker. Then, there was no more sound. Link smiled indifferently, not at all concerned. However, Zhao Yongkang instantly and suddenly said, ¡°City Master, this voice seems to belong to Jiang Cheng!¡± ¡°Erm?¡± Link let out a light sound of surprise and motioned to Zhao Yongkang to continue speaking. When this name was uttered, a young man¡¯s appearance also shed in Link¡¯s mind. ¡°The day before we came to Unfallen City, Jiang Cheng left without saying goodbye. It now seems that he may be in the ck Dragon Gang and has another identity!¡± Zhao Yongkang said solemnly. Obviously, that inexplicable organization and Jiang Cheng¡¯s voice gave Zhao Yongkang a bad premonition. Link nodded slightly and continued to walk toward the passage that led to the next floor. ¡°It¡¯s fine. The answer should be revealed soon.¡± At the same time, the atmosphere in the main control room was extremely solemn. ¡°Gang Leader... is dead... How could he possibly die!?¡± Even now, Doctor Ghost still found it a little hard to ept this result. ¡°I am afraid that only the Man-Made God can deal with them now!¡± said Doctor Ghost while gritting his teeth. He then quickly walked out of the control room! Chapter 153: Unstoppable! God of Evil鈥檚 Heir!

Chapter 153: Unstoppable! God of Evil¡¯s Heir!

Jiang Cheng followed behind Doctor Ghost. His head was slightly lowered as if he were thinking about something, his eyes obscure. The two of them returned to the hugeboratory. But at this moment, what appeared before them was another scene. They saw spider silk and webs entwined on the ground, walls, the various huge containers, and the precision instruments. This ce was like an ancient mansion that had been abandoned for many years. It also looked like a nest of some kind of giant spider, exuding a weird atmosphere. And the source of the spider silk was the huge cocoon in the middle of theboratory! At this moment, the huge cocoon was beating slightly like a beating heart and seemed as if it was breathing. It also looked like it was giving birth to something terrifying... Doctor Ghost looked at the giant cocoon with an obsessive look in his eyes. This was his greatest masterpiece. Only this masterpiece could block that Link, who was like the God of Killing! Jiang Cheng frowned slightly as he asked, ¡°Are you nning to have her break out of the cocoon in advance?¡± Doctor Ghost shook his head. ¡°No need; it¡¯s almost time. I can feel that she should be able toplete the final step soon.¡± As soon as the words fell, he turned his head and ordered the assistants, ¡°You guys go and dy Link. At the same time, seal off all the paths leading to here!¡± Doctor Ghost obviously wanted to buy thest bit of time to allow the existence in the cocoon to be born perfectly. The Adam¡¯s apples of the ck Dragon Gang assistants squirmed, and they swallowed their saliva as their faces showed fear and horror. Even their gang leader, ck Dragon, was killed by Link. They really didn¡¯t want to fight against that God of Killing-like man! When he saw the two of them hesitating, Doctor Ghost¡¯s face instantly changed as he said coldly, ¡°What are you waiting for? Go now!¡± ¡°Yes.¡± The assistants could only nod their heads in agreement and left theboratory. ... In the third basement floor¡¯s corridors, noisy footsteps and explosions continued to sound. Link continued to approach theboratory, where Doctor Ghost was, by following his sense of the twisted aura. Along the way, the weapons and alloy gates that blocked his way were directly shattered by his sword energy. The sword energy raged across the ce, and explosions continued to sound. This fully exined what was called the ¡®aesthetics of violence!¡¯ The ck Dragon Gang members who watched this scene through the monitoring facilities all had pale faces and cold air rising from their chests. ¡°Area F has been breached! The intruders are continuously approaching the finalboratory!¡± ¡°The firepower made by the Doctor couldn¡¯t stop his attack! It was directly smashed by sword energy and paralyzed!¡± ¡°Is this Link a monster?¡± ... Exmations kept sounding. The remaining ck Dragon Gang members watched the monitor screens turn dark or into snowkes one by one. The hair on their backs stood up, and cold sweat dripped down even more violently. Link and his party were heading toward theboratory in an unstoppable manner. They would arrive in a few minutes at most! ¡°We can¡¯t stop him; there¡¯s no way to stop him at all! Hurry up and inform the Doctor that Link and his people are arriving soon!¡± shouted a small ck Dragon Gang leader anxiously. However, a cold voice suddenly sounded here. ¡°No need; all of you shall stay here.¡± The hearts of the remaining ck Dragon Gang members shook as if they had been instantly gripped by a cold palm, and their whole body stiffened! An ominous feeling spread in their hearts. They slowly looked in the direction of the sound, and their scalps instantly went numb! They saw Link and his party already standing at the door; they were looking at them with a smile-like expression. The bodies of Xue Linglong, Zhao Yongkang, and the others all bloomed with light as they activated their skills. The next moment, the cold light of the des and the shadow of the spears shed in the control hall, bringing up a wave of scarlet blood! Most of the remaining ck Dragon Gang members were nonbat personnel in charge of research and experimentation. Theirbat power wasn¡¯t outstanding, and they soon turned into cold corpses. As for the small leader of the ck Dragon Gang, even his liver was shaking as he looked at this bloody sight. He then quickly knelt down toward Link and the others. ¡°Don¡¯t kill me! Don¡¯t kill me! I know all of Doctor Ghost¡¯s research results. As long as you don¡¯t kill me, I can work for you!¡± Luo Xinghe¡¯s de stopped at the small leader¡¯s head as he waited for Link¡¯s decision. Although Doctor Ghost and the other ck Dragon Gang members were all bloody and evil, it must be said that their research on technology and weapons was indeed quite good. Some of the research results were worth learning from. ¡°Let him live first,¡± Link said lightly. How could he let go of the opportunity to drain all of the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s remaining value? The small leader of the ck Dragon Gang instantly let out a sigh of relief and went limp on the floor. Looking at Link¡¯s back, he only felt that this man was even more terrifying than the God of Evil that the ck Dragon Gang worshiped! ... In the center of theboratory that was covered with cobwebs, the huge cocoon vibrated more and more intensely. Breaths of distortion and profanity rippled from it like water waves. Doctor Ghost looked at theboratory¡¯s closed door from time to time and muttered, ¡°Almost, almost!¡± He was like a gambler that had taken out all they had and ced everything on the table. All his wealth, and even his life, had been ced on this gamble. Suddenly, themunicator in Doctor Ghost¡¯s pocket rang. He picked up themunicator, and a mocking voice came from it. ¡°Found you.¡± Both Doctor Ghost and Jiang Cheng¡¯s expressions froze. The next moment, a loud explosion sounded! This was the sound of theboratory¡¯s closed alloy door wailing! Very quickly, this extremely sturdy door burst apart, and its fragments flew everywhere! A sharp siren instantly sounded, and the red warning lights flickered, creating an uneasy atmosphere. Doctor Ghost looked at Link¡ªwho slowly stepped into theboratory¡ªthe brilliance in his mechanical eyes flickering with anger and fear! Link nced at the huge cocoon and said ndly, ¡°So this is what you¡¯re counting on?¡± Zhao Yongkang stared at Jiang Cheng¡ªwho was standing next to Doctor Ghost¡ªand questioned solemnly, ¡°Why are you here? Could it be that you have joined the ck Dragon Gang?¡± Jiang Cheng nced at Zhao Yongkang and just smiled. He then inquired, ¡°Chief Zhao, how have you been doing?¡± ¡°Answer me!¡± Zhao Yongkang lowered his head and roared. ¡°There is nothing to say. The ck Dragon Gang is only part of the organization that I belong to. You lot will eventually discover that you have provoked a force so powerful that you can¡¯t even imagine it!¡± Jiang Cheng spoke coldly, but his eyes were on Link. Link just twitched the corner of his mouth and didn¡¯t take the threat to heart at all, even if the organization that Jiang Cheng talked about was an ancient faction that knew many secrets. As long as he maintained his current leveling speed and stood at the forefront of the [Doomsday Online] yers, there wasn¡¯t a need to fear at all. It was nothing more than just taking care of whatever came along. Right at this moment¡ªwhen the battle almost started¡ªa cracking sound resounded. Everyone looked to the side and saw a crack appear in the giant cocoon, which was in the center of theboratory. And in an instant, the crack spread rapidly. The giant cocoon then shattered, and numerous ck chelicerae stretched out from it. A sh of ecstasy instantly appeared on Doctor Ghost¡¯s face. Looking at Link and his party spitefully, heughed loudly and said, ¡°Haha, she finally broke out of the cocoon! None of you shall escape!¡± Chapter 154: Mother鈥檚 Breath! Defection!

Chapter 154: Mother¡¯s Breath! Defection!

Along with Doctor Ghost¡¯s hideousughter, the giant cocoon shattered more and more violently. Pieces of eggshell-like fragments fell to the ground, and the being inside stretched her dark chelicerae limbs. The heavy pressure and the deadly sense of danger continued to spread. The air seemed to be heavier, and the temperature in theboratory seemed to drop ordingly! Even the light dimmed as if it were being swallowed by that giant cocoon! Zhao Yongkang and the others all had a touch of solemnity on their faces. An inexplicable sense of repression made them feel a little suffocated! This was a fear that came from their biological instincts, and it was enough to show that the existence breaking through the cocoon was definitely not something kind! Thump! Thump! Everyone¡¯s heartbeat unanimously sped up. Their heartbeats were like drums sounding over from ancient times and resounded in their ears! While looking at each other, Xue Linglong and the others could see the tension and anxiety in each other¡¯s eyes. Only Link¡¯s expression remained unchanged. Instead, a bit of interest shed in his eyes as he casually looked at the gradually shattering giant cocoon. He possessed the [Ring of Teleportation]. If the situation wasn¡¯t right, he could teleport away. With his currentbat power and attributes, there weren¡¯t many things that could threaten his life at this stage. Luo Xinghe said solemnly, ¡°This thing should be the goal that the ck Dragon Gang is seeking to reach through whatever means possible. Such a terrifying pressure and aura... Could it be that it is a Stage Five Star-rank existence?¡± Zhao Yongkang was a little bit stunned. In his opinion, a Stage Five Star-rank existence was already among the top powerhouses¡ªpowerful enough to destroy an entire city! And ck Dragon, ck Dragon Gang¡¯s leader, had already demonstrated Stage Fivebat power just now. But now, there was another suspected Stage Five Star-rank existence here. The ck Dragon Gang¡¯s strength was really frightening... What was most unbelievable to him was that such a powerful ck Dragon Gang was only part of the organization that Jiang Cheng spoke of. How terrifying was the organization that Jiang Cheng mentioned? Just thinking about this fact was frightening! p! Anotherrge fragment fell from the cocoon. As the sharp chelicerae stretched out, everyone finally saw its true appearance. They saw that it wasn¡¯t a hideous and ugly monster wrapped in the giant cocoon but a beautiful phantom. A slender woman with sharp chelicerae growing on her back stood there. Her long purple hair seemed to carry a dreamlike color. Like a gorgeous tassel, her hair fluttered in the air slightly. The woman¡¯s appearance was even more beautiful and otherworldly. Her skin was jade-like and had a strange charm that provoked people into reveries. On her slender neck was a mysterious spider-like mark, and her whole body was covered by ayer of purple-ck armor, adding a bit of heroism to her appearance. She was like a ck hole when she stood there, attracting everyone¡¯s attention as she mesmerized them. As if waking up from a dream, her eyshes softly trembled like a butterfly¡¯s wings. Her eyelids soon lifted up, revealing a pair of deep purple eyes, where a dazzling light shed through them! When Zhao Yongkang and the others saw the creature in the cocoon, they couldn¡¯t help but lose their minds a little! If Luo Xinghe was said to be amazed by this woman¡¯s appearance, then Zhao Yongkang was simply shocked. This was because, except for some slight changes in temperament and appearance, this woman was too simr to Luo Haoyue! Zhao Yongkang couldn¡¯t help but exim, ¡°You... You are Luo Haoyue?!¡± Link also had an impression of Luo Haoyue, so he immediately discovered the clues to her identity. Hearing Zhao Yongkang¡¯s words, the beautiful woman¡ªwho emerged from the cocoon¡ªdidn¡¯t react at all. There wasn¡¯t even a trace of movement in her eyes. Doctor Ghost smiled and said, ¡°Luo Haoyue? I seem to have heard this name before, but now, she is the Man-Made God of my ck Dragon Gang and your nightmare!¡± After those words fell, Doctor Ghost pointed at Link and the others as he said to Luo Haoyue, ¡°I am the messenger of the Lord and also your master. For the Lord¡¯s will to be carried out in the world, kill them!¡± Luo Haoyue nodded slightly when she heard the words, and the aura in her body became more turbulent. A horrifying Stage Five, Level 8 aura exuded from her body, and everyone heard an indescribable neighing sound. Numerous twisted spider shadows even suddenly appeared on the dense spiderweb under their feet! This ce had been transformed into a domain-like territory during the giant cocoon¡¯s incubation process. In other words, Link and the others¡ªwho entered theboratory¡ªhad always been in Luo Haoyue¡¯s domain! Following a change in Luo Haoyue¡¯s will, Link and the others all suffered from the domain¡¯s influence! A sense of crisis rose in their hearts, and Xue Linglong and the others suddenly had chills running down their backs. The hair on their bodies stood on end, and they were all affected by the mental shock and pollution effects! Link narrowed his eyes slightly as he stared at the chelicerae extending from Luo Haoyue¡¯s back, his gaze obscure. Originally, he nned to bring [Insect Summoner] Luo Haoyue under hismand. But it now appeared that, like ck Dragon, she had been affected by the God of Evil. She had undergone unforeseen changes, and he was unsure if there was still any value left in her. With a faint sound, the shadow under Luo Haoyue¡¯s feet twisted strangely as if it had turned into a dark and muddy swamp. Dark spider shadows also constantly crawled out of it. This was not an illusion created by the effect of spiritual pollution but more like summoned creatures! Luo Haoyue¡¯s shadow seemed to be connected to a terrifying space, allowing these strange creatures to pass through and enter reality. When the spider shadows came to this world, they let out sharp neighs and rushed toward Link and the others! Luo Haoyue was originally an [Insect Summoner]; she was capable of summoning all kinds of insects to fight for her. Has her ability changed after being affected by the God of Evil? thought Link silently in his heart and was about to take action. And at this moment, the twisted spider shadows suddenly stopped and stood still. Doctor Ghost was waiting to see Link and the others torn to pieces. Upon seeing this scene, his face suddenly stiffened, and he questioned Luo Haoyue in a deep voice. ¡°What¡¯s the matter? Why aren¡¯t you killing these intruders? Are you nning to disobey me?¡± Luo Haoyue frowned slightly and looked at Doctor Ghost coldly. She then said, ¡°Human, you aren¡¯t qualified to speak to me like this!¡± Doctor Ghost noticed the coldness and indifference in Luo Haoyue¡¯s eyes, and his face became more and more ugly. Luo Haoyue turned her head and looked at Link, puzzlement shing in her beautiful eyes. ¡°You have Mother¡¯s breath on you. Are you a messenger of Mother?¡± Messenger? Mother¡¯s breath? Link was dazed for a moment, but he quickly understood. If there were any objects on his body that were rted to the God of Evil, it was either the [Mask of the Faceless] or the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep]. Moreover, the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep] was produced by using [Supreme Blessing] on the Spider God¡¯s spider silk. ¡°This is probably what you are referring to.¡± Link took out the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep] from his shirt. At the same time, he once again activated [Witness of the Myth]¡¯s skill, [God¡¯s Aura]! A twisted spider shadow shed behind Link, and a terrifying aura suddenly descended! Upon sensing the aura that Link exuded this time and the core aura from the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep], a sh of fanaticism suddenly shed across Luo Haoyue¡¯s beautiful face. Then, she actually fell on one knee, kneeling toward Link without hesitation! Chapter 155: Cleaning the Faction! Dog-eat-dog!

Chapter 155: Cleaning the Faction! Dog-eat-dog!

A god-like suppression radiated from Link and spread through theboratory. It made everyone¡¯s hearts shrink with it. But what was even more shocking was Luo Haoyue¡¯s action! This clearly wasn¡¯t some kind of attacking posture. Instead, she was expressing submission toward Link! Why would ck Dragon Gang¡¯s secret weapon switch sides at thest moment? All of a sudden, the area fell dead silent! Doctor Ghost and Jiang Cheng weren¡¯t the only ones who remained rooted to the spot and had stiffening countenances. Their minds became slightly dazed. Even Zhao Yongkang and the others had looks full of disbelief and horror! This unexpected scene could be said to have taken everybody by surprise. It made them feel as if they¡¯d been struck by lightning¡ªtheir minds were buzzing! The corners of Doctor Ghost¡¯s eyes twitched. He almost cked out and spurted out a mouthful of blood then and there. What is going? Doctor Ghost was close to refusing to believe his eyes! Doctor Ghost exasperatedly asked, ¡°What are you doing? I am the Lord¡¯s envoy! Without me, it would¡¯ve been absolutely impossible for you to appear here!¡± Doctor Ghost rolled up his sleeves as he spoke, revealing a pitch-ck mark on his arm. It was a distorted spider shadow and a ring of characters; it radiated a dim glow. This was his means of controlling Luo Haoyue. The mark came from the previous sacrifice to the Spider God. It was one of the rewards he gained, and it contained wisps of the God of Evil¡¯s aura. Gods were existences on apletely different level from humans, so much so that humankind to gods were like what ants were to humans¡ªextremely insignificant and of no concern. Even if the God of Evil¡¯s believers were nothing in ¡®Their¡¯ eyes, or perhaps just delicious food, there were rare cases where the heretical believers were able to please the gods and obtain rewards. During the previous sacrifice, ck Dragon and Doctor Ghost¡ªwho were the leaders¡ªhad received rewards. In addition, they obtained a damaged spider egg. The ¡®Man-Made God¡¯ project had been based on this. Hence, they had to find a suitable vessel for the spider egg that could not directly hatch. When Doctor Ghost revealed the mark on his arm, some changes finally appeared in Luo Haoyue¡¯s expression. Her brows were slightly furrowed as if she were sensing something. Confusion seemed to sh through her beautiful eyes, but she still remained on one knee. After all, the aura that radiated from Doctor Ghost¡¯s mark couldn¡¯tpare to Link at all. Whether it was the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep] derived from the God of Evil¡¯s spider silk or the god-like power and aura that Link presently radiated, both were of higher statuses than Doctor Ghost! This was precisely the reason why Luo Haoyue took the initiative to submit. ¡°Get up; work for me henceforth,¡±manded Link coolly. Although the process was a little tortuous, and the oue deviated slightly from expectations, he still took Luo Haoyue under hismand. Luo Haoyue¡¯s current condition was rather special but what was certain was that Luo Haoyue had be even more powerful than before. She now had even greater potential for growth. Link was filled with anticipation. When the Zerg invade, what kind of performance will she¡ªwho is now in this state¡ªhave? ¡°Yes,¡± Luo Haoyue responded readily. She then got up without hesitation and went to stand behind Link. Seeing such a scene, Doctor Ghost was about to explode. His face became utterly distorted and hideous. One must know that this was the ¡®Man-Made God¡¯ project that he and ck Dragon had spent extensively painstaking efforts toplete. Had they just toiled for the benefit of another? Moreover, this was Link¡ªthe person he wished to pull out the tendons and tear his skin. How could Doctor Ghost take this lying down? ¡°This isn¡¯t real!¡± Doctor Ghost snarled in his heart, and his eyes filled with a fierce glint. He was like a wild beast that had been driven into an impasse! Even the aberrated weapon that he had put everything into had switched sides now! Doctor Ghost¡¯s mental state became extremely terrible; he was close to madness. As such, blisters also vaguely appeared all over his body. It seemed like he was about to start aberrating! ¡°As my creation, you actually dared to betray me!? Then, you shall go and die!¡± As his hysterical words fell, Doctor Ghost pressed down on a mechanical device on his wrist. On Luo Haoyue¡¯s slim neck, a piece of equipment¡ªwhich resembled a neck strap¡ªinstantly emitted a series of destructive aura as if it were about to explode! Clearly, Doctor Ghost had also left a countermeasure on her! That neck strap was like a death-hastening talisman. It was precisely prepared for this moment. Once the terrifying energy contained within it blew up, it would be enough to destroy the entire underground base! Even a Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse might not necessarily survive! ¡°Go to hell! All of you, go to hell!¡± Doctor Ghost grinned hideously as he stared at Link and Luo Haoyue. But before he could open the hidden secret door and evade this explosion, he saw a scene that made him dumbstruck. Luo Haoyue wasn¡¯t flustered in the slightest. She only reached out and pressed on the neck strap with an aloof look. Then, strange energy spread and enveloped the neck strap. After that, she directly tugged off this neck strap and threw it to the ground. A distorted spider shadow opened its big mouth and devoured the neck strap. Then, it directly merged with Luo Haoyue¡¯s jet-ck shadow. Her shadow was like a passageway that led to an unknown destination. The spider shadowpletely vanished. And the neck strap¡ªwhich was originally about to explode¡ªdidn¡¯t even release the slightest sound! Doctor Ghost waspletely stunned. He had exhausted all his means, but he actually didn¡¯t even hear a single sound now? The continuous blows broke Doctor Ghost¡¯s mind. The corners of his eyes twitched, and he remained dazed in the same spot. He was close to doubting life! Right then,ughter that contained madness sounded in the area suddenly. Jiang Cheng¡ªwho was beside Doctor Ghost¡ªconvulsed withughter. A few teardrops were even squeezed out from the corners of his eyes. He stretched out a hand to wipe the tears at the corners of his eyes and patted Doctor Ghost¡¯s shoulders. ¡°This is really a fine masterpiece... An interesting artwork.¡± Doctor Ghost¡ªwho was originally exasperated¡ªbecame dazed. His emotions were interrupted... He¡¯d be rather incoherent. Upon hearing these words that had inexplicable meaning and sounded like taunting, Doctor Ghost¡¯s face alternated between shades of red and white. He could no longer care for the differences in their statuses and directly asked, ¡°What do you mean?¡± Jiang Cheng shot a nce at him. Although he was smiling, the gaze set off chills in Doctor Ghost¡¯s heart. p! Jiang Cheng ignored Doctor Ghost; he snapped his fingers instead. Shrugging, he spoke with a rxed expression. ¡°Apologies for that embarrassing scene. Then, I shall take care of this messy situation next and let this poor andical performancee to an end.¡± His lips then moved as if he were quietly chanting something. Following the chanting, Jiang Cheng struck with violent force. A cold silver gleam shed through the air, carrying piercing killing intent as it flew toward Jiang Cheng¡¯s own throat! This strike was beyond everybody¡¯s expectations. The de gleam shed across, but not the slightest wound and trace of blood appeared at Jiang Cheng¡¯s neck. Instead, Doctor Ghost¡ªwho was beside him¡ªsuddenly let out an agonizing and stifled cry! Doctor Ghost reached out, wanting to cover his neck, but crimson blood had already gushed out. Almost his entire neck was torn; only some skin and flesh remained attached! With such an injury, even Doctor Ghost¡ªwho had received the God of Evil¡¯s rewards and possessed a powerful healing ability¡ªcouldn¡¯t handle it. Watching this scene, Zhao Yongkang and the others all felt their scalps turn numb! Jiang Cheng also smiled with pursed lips and looked toward Link andpany. ¡°Now that the trash has been cleared, it¡¯s your turn next...¡± Chapter 156: Psychological Warfare! True Tarot!

Chapter 156: Psychological Warfare! True Tarot!

There wasn¡¯t the slightest warmth in Jiang Cheng¡¯s smile. There was only a chilling coldness, and it made one apprehensive. ¡°Damn it, another one that has gone mad,¡± Luo Xinghe cursed. As he tightened his grip on the longsword in his hand, a hint of solemnity shed across his face. Zhao Yongkang watched Doctor Ghost, who fell to the ground hard. His lips were pursed tightly, and he had mixed feelings. Truly, one might know a man¡¯s exterior but not his heart. Who would¡¯ve thought that Jiang Cheng¡ªwho originally called himself a Priest¡ªwas actually this cold-blooded and insane? It was no wonder that he could swiftly conclude the three stages after a normal person had been polluted at the beginning. It turned out that he had long learned about aberration and the God of Evil. It could even be said that he was well versed in it. Xue Linglong¡¯s gaze flickered as she stared fixedly at the silver scalpel in Jiang Cheng¡¯s hand; her heartstrings were tense. Jiang Cheng¡¯s tricks were truly too strange. The scalpel had clearly sliced his own throat, yet the wound appeared on Doctor Ghost. It was virtually inconceivable. Everybody was delighted to hear and see the drama of a dogfight. But the tricks that Jiang Cheng revealed were especially bizarre; it made one feel extremely uneasy. Link¡¯s fierce eyes also narrowed slightly. He was prepared to strike at any time. Just then, a mechanical arm suddenly wound around Jiang Cheng¡¯s ankle. Jiang Cheng bowed his head for a nce and saw that flesh and blood squirmed around the opening at Doctor Ghost¡¯s neck. Cirri had grown, forcefully connecting it to the head that was originally close to being severed. Doctor Ghost¡¯s eyes presently stared at Jiang Cheng, full of resentment. It seemed as though he was asking him a question: Why did you strike me? A speck of somberness shed across Jiang Cheng¡¯s face. Heughed coldly and said, ¡°After epting a god¡¯s rewards, your vitality is truly as tenacious as a cockroach.¡± Before his words fell, Jiang Cheng¡¯s foot harshly stomped at Doctor Ghost¡¯s head! Boom! This kick¡ªwhich contained frightening force¡ªdirectly trampled Doctor Ghost¡¯s head. Brains, mixed with fresh blood, sttered like a watermelon that was smashed. The sticky filth also stained Jiang Cheng¡¯s shoe. He wiped it on Doctor Ghost¡¯s clothes, then swept a look at Luo Xinghe and the others¡ªwho wore nervous looks. He slowly walked over with the bright silver scalpel in hand. He was not walking fast, but his footsteps were unusually heavy. It seemed as if every step wasnding on the hearts of the masses. Low, stifled chanting sounded from Jiang Cheng¡¯s mouth once again. Every note carried a melody that made one fearful. Xue Linglong and the others all felt a stabbing pain in their minds as if they were being pricked by needles. Yuna swung her staff right away. Waves of holy light radiated like ripples, ending the impact that the chanting had on everyone¡¯s minds. From the shadow beneath Luo Haoyue¡¯s feet, distorted spider shadows also crawled out and pounced toward Jiang Cheng. Link¡¯s wrist jerked, and streaks of swift and fierce sword energy instantly ripped through the air. Wrapping around a series of sonic booms, they swept toward Jiang Cheng! Jiang Cheng¡¯s figure drifted as though he was a phantom and dodged the spider shadows and sword energy¡¯s attacks. Then, his wrist danced. Two glints of a silver glow leaped out from the scalpel in his hand and directly blew up the two distorted spider shadows into pieces. ¡°It is impossible for all of you to defeat me. In fact, your lives are all held in my hand! Once I swing the scalpel lightly, all of you will have to die!¡± Jiang Cheng let out a strange, sinisterugh and aimed the tip of the scalpel at his own heart. The chilly words were like an ill wind that blew from hell, sweeping across everyone¡¯s hearts. The scene of Jiang Cheng swinging the knife toward his own neck but resulting in Doctor Ghost¡¯s neck surging with fresh blood appeared in everyone¡¯s minds once more. The hair all over their bodies could not help standing on end. Such strange tricks were indeed impossible to guard against. Yet, Link only tugged at the corner of his lips, wearing an aloof smile. He wasn¡¯t affected by Jiang Cheng at all. Through his observations and probing attacks, Link already had a guess on Jiang Cheng¡¯s abilities. The kind of ability that couldn¡¯t be effectively defended against didn¡¯t seem to be Jiang Cheng¡¯s own skills. It probably came from a certain piece of equipment or external force. And a considerable number of restrictions existed with it. Otherwise, Jiang Cheng ought to have directly acted against them after killing Doctor Ghost. He wouldn¡¯t have used actions and words to terrorize them. So much so that Jiang Cheng¡¯s killing of Doctor Ghost could possibly be one of his psychological tactics. He actually didn¡¯t haveplete confidence. He only hoped to use these means to suppress everyone¡¯s minds, attacking everyone¡¯s mental defenses to create an opportunity for the broken situation! Link thought of a miraculous object that he had heard of in his previous lifetime. He then said coolly, ¡°Stop putting up an empty show of power. It is impossible for the ability you use toe at no price. You should have a [True Tarot] in your hands.¡± [True Tarot]? It was the first time Xue Linglong and the others had heard of this term. They were all a little dazed, and it seemed as if question marks were appearing above their heads. Jiang Cheng¡¯s countenance stiffened slightly; his gaze toward Link became even icier and sharper. ¡°Oh, I have underestimated you. You actually know about [True Tarot] too?¡± Jiang Cheng didn¡¯t exin anything. Link had lived two lifetimes as a human, and his knowledge of [True Tarot] came from his memories of his previous life. The universally known tarot cards were ancient divination tools of the West. They were thought to be nature¡¯s trove of secrets and could reveal destinies. In reality, there was a wide variety of tarot cards, up to 1,000 different kinds. The majority didn¡¯t have any special ability. The origins of [True Tarot] were mysterious; they seemed to be 22 mysterious cards handed down from other eras of civilization! They were the 22 Major Arcana cards from the very beginning, the very source! Every [True Tarot] card contained strange and unpredictable powers. They were rted to certain rules and were also known as cards of fate or cards of rule. ording to hearsay, there was also a huge secret hidden within these 22 mysterious cards. When one uncovered the secret, they would be able to find a Stair of Bing Divinity. This was a method that allowed humans to be a god! In Link¡¯s previous life, countless [Doomsday Online] yers coveted and hankered for these 22 mysterious [True Tarot] cards. If Jiang Cheng had one in his hand, it meant that he indeed had some capabilities in the organization and that his foundation was deep. It made Link slightly surprised. The exposed Jiang Cheng no longer bothered with a great show of force. With a heavy step, he came shooting toward Link like an arrow. The aura he radiated was tempestuous. He was actually a Stage Five existence as well! Under the frightening force¡¯s impact, a sunken pit was made in the alloy ground beneath Jiang Cheng¡¯s feet! Link didn¡¯t dodge. His figure leaped out as he swung the [King¡¯s Sword] in his hand horizontally, which instantly released a brilliant sword glow! Streaks of sword energy even swept toward Jiang Cheng like an explosion! Boom! A terrifying sonic boom roared. Pieces of the alloy ground were lifted and sent flying by the repercussions of the two¡¯s battle. A figure was even knocked back like a kite with a broken string and heavily mmed into theboratory¡¯s walls. ¡°Cough cough.¡± Jiang Cheng coughed out a mouthful of blood. There was only solemnity and wariness on his face. Jiang Cheng had battled Link¡ªwho was a Stage Four existence¡ªwith his Stage Five capabilities. However, it turned out that he wasn¡¯t Link¡¯s enemy for even one strike at all! Jiang Cheng was directly struck and sent flying! This made Jiang Cheng even more aware of Link¡¯s dominance and unpredictability. But very soon, he was grinning. ¡°Link, you are very right. The abilities that I use do indeed have restrictions, and a price doese with them. But now... I¡¯ve already gotten your hair. With this medium, you¡¯re doomed!¡± As he spoke, Jiang Cheng stretched out his hand. Shockingly, in his palm was a few strands of hair! Chapter 157: Predict! Complete Annihilation!

Chapter 157: Predict! Complete Annihtion!

Jiang Cheng had obtained these few strands of hair when he had collided with Link during that one strike earlier! And with Link¡¯s hair as the medium, Jiang Cheng couldunch that strange ability once again! Xue Linglong and the others paled upon hearing Jiang Cheng¡¯s words! Link¡¯s own countenance remained unchanged. His pair of pitch-ck eyes were like two bottomless ancient wells¡ªextremely deep. Jiang Cheng rested the sharp scalpel against his own heart. A hint of rxed, sure-win joy shed across his face. Once he made a thought and drew support from the [True Tarot] card¡¯s power, the sharp scalpel would be able to mash Link¡¯s heartpletely! Presently, he was no longer in a hurry to act. He watched Link¡¯s face¡ªcovered by the [Mask of the Faceless]¡ªwith a smile, and it seemed as though he wanted to admire Link¡¯s despair and fear. ¡°You monster! I really don¡¯t know how you can be so strong. You¡¯re only a Stage Four, yet you¡¯re so troublesome! But everything is going to end now! I will kill you, obtain your equipment, and uncover your secrets. Then, I will use your body as research material for the organization. I believe the organization will definitely be very satisfied!¡± ¡°As for ck Dragon Gang¡¯s Man-Made God.¡± Jiang Cheng looked at Luo Haoyue, and he said contemtively, ¡°The result is still pretty good; I will reim you as well. Such a keen weapon naturally has to be in our hands. And the others, by then, I can only send you on your way!¡± A series of icy coldments sounded in theboratory. Xue Linglong and the others¡¯ countenances became extremely somber. ¡°Oh yes, Link, why aren¡¯t you begging for mercy? If you are willing to be my dog, perhaps I might spare your life!¡± Jiang Chengughed mockingly with a savage look. Link paid no heed to him; only a fleeting gleam of killing intent seemed to sh through his eyes. Both Xue Linglong and Luo Haoyue found it difficult to restrain themselves. Their delicate figures trembled, and both wanted to strike. However, Holy Angel Yuna shook her head at them, motioning to the duo to calm down and hold on. ¡°Hehe, no fun at all; then, you shall go to hell!¡± Jiang Cheng seemed to have sensed something. No longer hesitating, he ruthlessly stabbed the scalpel in his hand toward his own heart! It was also right then that gold light bloomed within Holy Angel Yuna¡¯s eyes, making it look as though goldenva was flowing within. Filled with unparalleled majesty, three pairs of holy wings spread open, and holy light illuminated the world! Streaks of brilliant gold light suddenly fell from above Link¡¯s head. It was as if the space now had a big golden sun that shone with boundless radiance! Under the shelter of the golden light, Link was like a god that had descended. He was majestic yet contemptuous! This was Yuna¡¯s skill, [Holy Light Beam]! It could bless allied units with holy light, which granted these blessed units three seconds of invincibility and immunity to all damage. The cooldown time was one minute! Three seconds of invincibility and high explosive power! Jiang Cheng¡¯s scalpel brutally twisted into where his heart was. Such a violent maneuver was enough to mash up one¡¯s entire heart! However, he abruptly turned wide-eyed in terror. This was because Jiang Cheng found that Link didn¡¯t seem to have felt the slightest pain! It seemed that he had not caused harm to Link¡¯s body at all! ¡°How can this be?!¡± Jiang Cheng eximed; his heart was full of surprise and shock! But Link would not let this brief opportunity slip. The [Ring of Teleportation] on his finger faintly glowed with a silver brilliance. [Instant Teleport]¡ªwhich had the effect of discement¡ªwasunched! In Jiang Cheng¡¯s eyes¡ªwhich had widened in terror¡ªLink¡¯s figure abruptly disappeared. When Link appeared once more, he was already before Jiang Cheng! Jiang Cheng was presently facing immense horror and disbelief, and he couldn¡¯t react in time at all. A zing sword glow suddenly lit up and swiftly covered the world before Jiang Cheng¡¯s eyes, turning everything else dull inparison! [Rage of the Holy Sword]! All attributes +10,000%, damage +10,000%! This was a strike of unrivaled might and power; the searing sword intent filled the whole space! The world before Jiang Cheng¡¯s eyes began to spin, and his consciousness gradually faded out! At this moment, it suddenly struck him that everything earlier had been a ruse that Link set up for him! It turned out that Link long had the method to counter his ability. Link merely waited for Jiang Cheng to use the ability so that he could be caught off-guard andpletely lose his chance of survival! His head was directly sliced off by Link. It flew up high, and the fresh blood at his neck was like a geyser. The blood flew up by at least a few feet! Even if Jiang Cheng still had more strange tricks and hidden cards, he was dead now! Within mere seconds, a Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse had died! As they watched everything that happened before their eyes, Xue Linglong, Zhao Yongkang, Luo Xinghe, and the others¡¯ pupils constricted. Astonishment and absentmindedness were all over their faces! Jiang Cheng had died just like that? This Stage Five powerhouse, who made people¡¯s scalps go numb, actually had his head chopped off within seconds? The hearts of the few were filled with shock and agitation; they were in slight disbelief after seeing this scene before them. Moments ago, they had been worried that Link would be at Jiang Cheng¡¯s mercy and would encounter the expected. Now, they all let out a long sigh of relief! Xue Linglong and the others were all clever people. Very quickly, they understood everything that Link had done earlier. Link had probably allowed Jiang Cheng to take those strands of hair. It was to probe for more information on Jiang Cheng¡¯s ability, and it was also a loophole that he intentionally sold out. To strike resolutely when Jiang Cheng believed that victory was in his hands,pletely smother all of the enemy¡¯s hopes, and sever Jiang Cheng¡¯s chances of using other strange abilities to achieve a kill in one blow¡ªJiang Cheng did not die an unjust death! A hint of respect and surprise shed through Xue Linglong and the others¡¯ eyes. They increasingly felt that Link was fathomless! Not only did Link have highbat prowess, but his battle achievements were also this outstanding. It virtually made his enemies despair! Xue Linglong, Zhao Yongkang, and the others all felt grateful to be able to follow such a figure in the apocalyptic world! ¡°Lord, you are really impressive!¡± Luo Xinghe blurted out. As she stared at Link¡¯s back view, a glow swirled in Xue Linglong¡¯s beautiful eyes; the splendid radiance was permanent. Luo Haoyue¡ªwho was at the side¡ªremained with an aloof countenance, but some hints of surprise seemed to sh through her eyes as well. The three seconds of invincibility had long passed. Since Jiang Cheng had died, the effect of [True Tarot] also disintegrated with him. But this spell¡¯s surviving influence still set off a sharp pain in Link¡¯s chest. He felt as if his heart had been brutally struck! Link¡¯s brows furrowed slightly as he inwardly thought, This [True Tarot]¡¯s effect is really nasty. Even my Body of Death isn¡¯t immune to it; it probably involves a certain rule. But even without [Holy Light Beam], Link might not necessarily die after his heart was crushed. [Pathfinder]¡ªthe second passive of his title, [Fearless Pathfinder]¡ªallowed him to automatically recover to 30% HP when his health dropped to zero for the first time. It could be said that Link was more of a counter to that [True Tarot] card in Jiang Cheng¡¯s hand. Sweeping a nce at the disorderly ground, Link tugged at the corner of his lips. All of the enemies had been killed; it was now the harvest time, which he liked. Jiang Cheng definitely had good stuff on him! Just that [True Tarot] card alone would¡¯ve made this a worthwhile trip. Moreover, all of Doctor Ghost¡¯s research results now belonged to Link! On this day, Link killed two Star-rank powerhouse sessively, and the ck Dragon Gang waspletely annihted! Chapter 158: High-Quality Replica! Hanged Man!

Chapter 158: High-Quality Replica! Hanged Man!

In theboratory, Link removed the [Mask of the Faceless] from his face and put it in his personal backpack. The personal backpack was a portable space bound to everyone that was used to store items since [Doomsday Online] began. Some equipment had specific requirements and had to be carried with them in order for it to be effective. If it was kept in the system space, it wouldn¡¯t be effective. And even though one¡¯s equipment was kept in their personal backpack, it would open up after one was killed. One example was the card of rule that Jiang Cheng previously used. Whether it was put in the backpack or with him, it would be Link¡¯s loot when Jiang Cheng died. Yuna waved her staff gently, and all of Jiang Cheng¡¯s equipment and items automatically floated and suspended in front of Link. These items were a ck inner armor, a scalpel that emitted silver light, a small ball that emitted an inexplicable aura, and a card with strange runes drawn on it. As Link gazed at the items, pieces of information immediately entered his mind. [Silver Silk Soft Armor] Grade: Gold... [Bloodthirsty Scalpel] Grade: Diamond... Link was not interested in the armor or the scalpel. However, the scalpel was Diamond-grade, and its attributes weren¡¯t bad. It could be given to Qiao Ruowei, who had an Assassin profession, after it was blessed. The small ball that emitted an inexplicable aura was an item that Jiang Cheng didn¡¯t get to use. [Tainted Eye] (Chaotic equipment) Grade: Diamond Introduction: An aberrated eye sealed in a cursed ball. Afterpleting a special ritual, an evil eye will be conjured¡ª¡ªIt is always watching you and never leaves. Additional skill 1: [Tainted Eye] (Active Skill): The user can conjure an eye with powerful aberration and pollution. It causes mental impact to enemies, and it has a 50% chance of causing forced stiffness and blinding effects. Cooldown Time: 12 hours Additional skill 2: [Tainted Inducer] (Passive Skill): The user can pay the price of being aberrated to heal some of their wounds and restore 30% of their Health Points, as well as gain ayer of tainted armor. Cooldown Time: 6 hours ... If Jiang Cheng had a chance to use this [Tainted Eye], it would¡¯ve been even tougher. But now, it belonged to Link. Thest item was the card of rule that Link was more interested in. This was a card that emitted a faint glow. On its back was the mysterious and starry night sky. A bright star shone in the dark sky. On its front was a man hanging upside down from a tree, surrounded by strange runes. The runes seemed to contain magic and were rumored to be the source of magic. This was a card showing a [Hanged Man], symbolizing sacrifice and looking at the world from a different perspective. Considering the characteristics of the ability used by Jiang Cheng, Link had spected about the card he possessed. [Inverted Hangman] was within his expectations. A notification entered Link¡¯s mind. [A Fine Replica?Hanged Man] Grade: Diamond Introduction: [Card of Rule?Hanged Man] is a fine replica. It possesses a strange ability to involve rules in some way¡ª¡ªYou tried your best, but you¡¯re not sincere enough. Additional skill 1: [Hanged Man?Orthodox] (Active Skill): Self-sacrifice will be rewarded. The userpletes the ritual with the help of a medium (the target¡¯s hair, blood, etc.). They can then transfer the damage he or she has suffered to the target. Number of uses: 2/4 ... It was a replica of the Hanged Man card, not one of the 22 [True Tarot] cards. Link was slightly disappointed, but he understood that the 22 cards of rule were extremely precious and mysterious. It was already impressive for Jiang Cheng to own a replica. In fact, Link had seen several card of rule replicas in his previous life. Because of the cards of rules¡¯ powerful abilities, many Craftsmen and Mages coveted them. Hence, many imitations had appeared everywhere. The tarot cards replicated by these [Doomsday Online] yers simply weren¡¯t up to par for various reasons, and the vast majority of them had no special abilities or value. Replicas with strange partial abilities were extremely rare. Such highly-coveted cards were rumored to be remnants of previous eras. And [Hanged Man]¡¯s ability was unquestionably powerful in battles! Without hesitation, Link cast [Supreme Blessing] on the card! Suddenly, a misty light converged and enveloped the card. After a while, the light gradually dissipated, but a faint power of rule permeated. Obscure and strange sybles seemed to be ringing in Link¡¯s ears. Link picked up the card again and discovered that the patterns and runes on it had be moreplicated, more obscure, and even more mysterious. [Pseudo?Hanged Man] Grade: Legend Introduction: [Card of Rule?Hanged Man]¡¯s replica. Superb skills have made it look like the real deal. It contains the strange ability of [True Tarot] cards that involve rules¡ª¡ªProduced by Putian, definitely the best. Additional skill 1: [Hanged Man?Orthodox] (Active Skill): Self-sacrifice will be rewarded. The userpletes the ritual with the help of a medium (the target¡¯s hair, blood, etc.). They can then transfer the damage he or she has suffered to the target. Note: Each usage consumes mental strength and physical strength. Consumption will increase if continuously used within 24 hours. Additional skill 2: [Hanged Man?Inverted] (Passive Skill): Unnecessary sacrifice, inexplicable binding. After entering a near-death state, the card holder will get a chance to make a special judgment. If the judgment is sessful, he or she will recover to full status and gain 5 to 30 seconds of invincibility. If the judgement fails, only 50% Health Points are restored. Anyone who is hostile to the card holder will be inexplicably bound, resulting in a decline in status, 15% reduction in damage, and a chance of being affected by negative status effects such as stiffness and binding. Note: This item has the trait¡ª[Entanglement of Fate]. This trait will allow the item to have a certain connection with [Card of Rule?Hanged Man]. ... Pu pu! It was like a bicycle had turned into a motorcycle! After seeing this attribute, even Link couldn¡¯t help but feel the fire in his heart. The card¡ªwhich was only a fine imitation¡ªbecame [Pseudo?Hanged Man] all of a sudden. Not only was an extremely useful and powerful passive skill added, but the restriction¡ªit could only be used two more times¡ªwas removed. The most important thing was that it possessed a trait, which allowed the item to have a certain connection with [Card of Rule?Hanged Man]! This meant that, as long as Link had this card, there was a high chance that he would be able to find the real [Card of Rule?Hanged Man]! Within a certain range, it could even sense the other cards of rule! It was important to know that the real cards of rule were unique items, and there were only 22 of them. They also contained a great secret¡ªa way to be a god! These cards were treasures that countless people dreamed of owning. And Link now had part of the key to this huge treasure! If news got out, it would be enough to cause the whole world to shake and go crazy again! Link put away [Pseudo?Hanged Man] and waited for the three-minute cooldown to end. He then blessed [Tainted Eye], a piece of chaotic equipment... Chapter 159: Great Harvest! The Pot Was Full!

Chapter 159: Great Harvest! The Pot Was Full!

When the blessing¡¯s light dispersed, a foul and unholy aura radiated in the air. Luo Xinghe and the others¡ªwho were cleaning up the battlefield¡ªfroze. It was as if some horrible evil creature in the unseen world had suddenly opened its eyes and was watching them secretly! Zhao Yongkang couldn¡¯t help but shudder. The hair on his back stood on end as he looked around cautiously. The good thing was that this feeling onlysted for a moment. The enemies within the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s base had been wiped out by now. Thus, everyone thought it was an illusion caused by the long hours ofbat. However, Luo Haoyue keenly nced in Link¡¯s direction with doubt in her beautiful eyes. She didn¡¯t ask further since she had already recognized Link as the Mother¡¯s Messenger. As long as the great mother in the Dreands had not truly descended, she would follow Link¡¯s lead. Link kept the [Tainted Eye] once again. At this point, this sphere hadpletely transformed into an eyeball. It seemed to be covered by ayer of dark-red veins, and it appeared to be more demonic and creepy! The eyeball looked like it had been infected with pink eye. Is this what it became after I blessed it? Link thought to himself and checked its new attributes. [Tainted Demon Eye] (Chaotic equipment) Grade: Epic Introduction: An aberrated eye that contains strong curse power. It can be activated for use afterpleting a special ritual¡ª¡ªpolluted, aberrated, cmity. It is always around like an inescapable gaze. Additional skill 1: [Tainted Blood Pupil] (Active Skill): The user can activate the eye¡¯s original form, conjuring up a bloodshot eye that causes mental impact to groups of enemies. It also has a 60% chance of causing forced stiffness and blinding effects. Cooldown Time: 1 hour Additional skill 2: [Hidden Watch] (Passive Skill): The user can pay the price of being aberrated to heal some of their wounds and restore 50% of their Health Points, as well as gain ayer of tainted armor. Cooldown Time: 30 minutes ... Although the eyeball looked ordinary, its effects took a qualitative leap. Not only were the skills¡¯ cooldown time greatly shortened, but it was also a lot more practical to use! Not only did it have a group control skill, but it could also be used in critical moments to restore Health Points! Others might have to worry about the effects of being aberrated, but Link didn¡¯t have to worry about that since he had [Fearless]¡¯s passive protection! Overall, the pollution emanating from this chaotic equipment was very strong, but it was very suitable for Link¡¯s usage! Two pieces of good equipment were given out in a row, as well as a Star-ranked subordinate. Link only felt that Jiang Cheng and the ck Dragon Gang were like good Samaritans. As he thought that quietly, Link put the [Tainted Demon Eye] in his personal backpack. By the side, Zhao Yongkang was telling Luo Haoyue¡ªwho wore a cold expression and seemed to be out of touch with the world¡ªsomething about the No Retreat Army, hoping to help her recall things. ¡°Aye, I¡¯m your Uncle Luo... Haoyue, you don¡¯t remember anything at all?¡± However, Luo Haoyue couldn¡¯t be bothered with him. One¡¯s sorrows and joys were different. Moreover, Luo Haoyue had beenpletely transformed by the God of Evil¡¯s rewards. Zhao Yongkang wasn¡¯t even sure if she was still human... Luo Haoyue just felt that he was noisy, and she even wished she could summon a twisted spider shadow to bite this rambling, middle-aged man. Thankfully, Link sensed it and stopped Luo Haoyue¡¯s thoughts with a stare. ¡°Restrain your aura a little,¡± ordered Link indifferently. Luo Haoyue was now a walking source of pollution, constantly emitting an evil aura. Her eight sharp spider spears were too conspicuous. If it were a low-level [Doomsday Online] yer, they might be insane and aberrated after staying around her for too long! Hearing Link¡¯s words, Luo Haoyue nodded, although she didn¡¯t understand why the messenger didn¡¯t turn all these humans into food for Mother. Within a few breaths, she had restrained her aura, and the eight sharp spider spears on her spine quietly disappeared. This finally allowed Luo Haoyue to return to her normal human appearancepletely. A few momentster, Luo Xinghe and Xue Linglong had finished searching the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s base once again. This was to make sure that, other than those under their control, nobody had escaped. ¡°Lord, we have finished searching the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s base. Most of Doctor Ghost¡¯s research data is intact. They didn¡¯t manage to destroy the data in time,¡± Luo Xinghe reported. Link nodded slightly. ¡°Bring them back then.¡± A hint of worry shed in Zhao Yongkang¡¯s eyes. He looked at Luo Haoyue, sighed, and said, ¡°City Master, ck Dragon Gang¡¯s experiments are too vicious and cruel. It¡¯s best if these things don¡¯t get out...¡± Link understood Zhao Yongkang¡¯s concerns. Zhao Yongkang was worried that there would be someone in Unfallen City who couldn¡¯t contain their greed and thirst for power and would follow the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s path. ¡°Old Zhao, don¡¯t worry. I will only pick out the ordinary information and let trusted Craftsmen refer to it. I will never let the data leak out.¡± As he stared at the side view of Link¡¯s resolute face and those deep eyes, Zhao Yongkang¡¯s concerns vanished in an instant as he nodded subconsciously. He believed in Link. Perhaps it was this young man¡¯s extraordinary performance that was inexplicably convincing. Or maybe it was because of the young man¡¯s indifferent calmness when facing the chaotic equipment¡¯s bacsh, which inspired one. Or perhaps there was no good or evil in weapons; the differenceid on the person who used it. After collecting some rtively ordinary research data, Link and the rest turned around to leave, intending to return to the surface. As they left, Holy Angel Yuna waved her staff and spoke in a slightly heavy voice. ¡°Holy Light purifies evil!¡± Golden holy mes immediately surged out from the staff, which pulsed through space and licked everything like a golden river. All the filth and sin in this ce would be burned into nothingness! What Link and the others didn¡¯t know was that, not long after they left, something strange quietly urred in theboratory. After Jiang Cheng¡¯s corpse was burned by the holy mes, it shrunk rapidly and turned into a hideous doll strained with blood and covered with stitchings. At the abandoned vi aboveground, God Devourer Ant and Li Geyang led the ten-plus low-level [Doomsday Online] yers and waited quietly. When they saw Link and the others returned safely, they revealed delighted expressions. This was especially so when Li Geyang saw Luo Haoyue, who was behind Link¡ªhis smile deepened. ¡°City Master is indeed the City Master; you saved Luo Haoyue in no time! You¡¯re amazing!¡± He then spoke to Luo Haoyue, feeling slightly guilty. ¡°Haoyue, I¡¯ve made you suffer these few days.¡± Who knew that, not only did Luo Haoyue not reciprocate his feelings, but she also nced at him impatiently. Luo Haoyue was now a Star-rank powerhouse. Just one nce made Li Geyang¡¯s body stiffen and shudder as though he was targeted by a fierce, primitive beast! Li Geyang was confused for a while... Is this for real? I just felt a great sense of crisis. When did Luo Haoyue be so strong? Chapter 160: Death Substitute Puppet! Resurrected!

Chapter 160: Death Substitute Puppet! Resurrected!

It took a while before Li Geyang recovered. He coughed dryly, trying to ease his embarrassment. ¡°Cough cough.¡± Zhao Yongkang, who knew the whole story, came over and patted him on the shoulder. ¡°Brother Zhao, what¡¯s wrong with Xiao Luo? Why does she seem so murderous? Could it be...¡± Li Geyang didn¡¯t finish his sentence, but he implicitly pointed his finger at his head. Zhao Yongkang frowned and said, ¡°I think you¡¯re the one who has a problem with your head. Xiao Luo was transformed by the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s ¡®man-made god¡¯ n, and she has amnesia now.¡± ¡°Man-made god n?¡± Li Geyang was even more confused. ¡°I¡¯m not sure what it is, but based on the information left by the ck Dragon Gang, this seems to be their true purpose,¡± Zhao Yongkang said solemnly. ¡°Then, can Xiao Luo still recover her memory?¡± Li Geyang asked again. ¡°It¡¯s hard to tell.¡± Zhao Yongkang nced at Luo Haoyue, who was following behind Link. On her face was an unfriendly look, which warned strangers that they shouldn¡¯te near them. Zhao Yongkang couldn¡¯t help but sigh again. But when lives were so easily lost, it was a great blessing to survive during the days following Doomsday¡¯s descent. ¡°Lord, what about the people saved?¡± Luo Xinghe asked. Link nced at the sallow and skinny people, then said solemnly, ¡°The ck Dragon Gang has been annihted by us. Those who are willing to follow us can join our Unfallen City.¡± Unfallen City was rapidly developing now. These survivors would be a good addition to thebor force. The survivors heard Link say that he had eliminated the ck Dragon Gang and was also willing to take them in. Their faces were full of gratitude and joy at having taken revenge! The vast majority of the survivors expressed their willingness to join Unfallen City. However, there were also some people who had been so miserably oppressed by the ck Dragon Gang that they were wary of all kinds of forces. They were worried that they might be jumping out of the cooking oil and into the fire, so they nned to leave on their own and live in the wilderness. Link did not stop them. He let them choose their own future. Soon, the slightly restructured group embarked on the journey back. The ck Dragon Gang had been wiped out, and there were no other potential threats near Dragon City. In other words, Unfallen City¡¯s sphere of influence had enveloped the entire Dragon City. What Link intended to do next was to take in more refugees, obtain rare materials needed for city upgrades, increase Unfallen City¡¯s level, and further expand its territory and strength. Relying on the memories of his previous life, Link also knew about a few future powerhouses that had not made their mark at the beginning of Doomsday. He was considering whether to set out and bring those potential talents under hismand. As he pondered, Link temporarily suppressed some thoughts. After all, there was still one more important thing waiting for him¡ªthe Epochal Ruins, which would open up the countryside around Dragon City! The many doubts he had might be answered there. At this moment, a cold voice suddenly reached Link¡¯s ears. ¡°Lord Envoy, when do you n to start the next sacrifice and turn these people into believers or dependents of the Mother?¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Link raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Luo Haoyue, who was beside him. Her expression was calm, but a hint of urgency shed in her eyes. The current Luo Haoyue was the final result of the ¡®man-made god¡¯ project and believed in the Spider God. Of course, she would hope to start the next sacrifice soon. But Link was not interested in making any sacrifices. To be exact, he abhorred it. He still bore a grudge against the Spider God. Although the god was unable to descend now, it was not appropriate for Link to gain too much attention. And right now, Luo Haoyue clearly wanted him to be a cult leader and provide more sustenance for the Spider God. A touch of helplessness shed across Link¡¯s heart. He didn¡¯t want to be a cult leader, so he could only stall for time. ¡°Wait for a while longer; this has to be discussed at length.¡± Luo Haoyue nodded, and she respectfully said, ¡°I understand. I will serve Lord Envoy wholly.¡± Since both of them had deliberately spoken in low voices, Zhao Yongkang and the survivors¡ªwho followed behind Link¡ªdidn¡¯t hear them. Otherwise, the survivors would¡¯ve gone mad. They would¡¯ve felt as if they just escaped the wolf¡¯s den, only to enter the tiger¡¯s den. ¡°Haoyue, let me see your attribute screen,¡± said Link. He was very interested in Luo Haoyue¡¯s profession and race. After all, she had been transformed by the ¡®man-made god¡¯ n, and she was definitely different from the [Insect Summoner] in his previous life. Originally, each [Doomsday Online] yer¡¯s attribute screen was personal as it recorded their mastery of skills and profession. It wouldn¡¯t be easily revealed to others. However, Luo Haoyue clearly had no intentions of hiding it from Link, and she agreed without thinking about it. ¡°Okay.¡± She had barely finished speaking when a system notification sounded in Link¡¯s mind. Name: Luo Haoyue Race: God of Evil¡¯s heir Profession: Shadow Spider Dominator (Super God-grade) Level: Stage Five, Level 8 [Daughter of As Nakya] (Passive Skill 1): As the Spider God¡¯s heir, one possesses some of His characteristics. Gain an additional 60 attribute points with every level-up. When facing chaos, madness, and other mental impacts, resistance increased by 200%, damage increased by 50% when using skills. Skills alsoe with the Eternal Sleep effect. (Passive Skill 2): ... [Abyssal Shadow] (Active Skill 1): A shadow of the abyss, added buff. Pitch-ck shadows will be turned into channels, which can be used to attract dependents from the other world. Each twisted spider shadow inherits 25% of the caster¡¯s attributes. The maximum summoning limit: No more than 100. [Dreand Spider] (Active Skill 2): Offspring blessed by the Spider God can speed up their own recovery in the Dreands and increase their recovery rate by 200%. [Spider Shadow Control] (Active Skill 3): A natural deterrent to all insect-like creatures, and it can also dominate insect-like creatures that aren¡¯t more than one stage higher than the caster. When attacking insects, damage increases by 200%. Caster also gains 40% immunity to damage. ... Although Link only took a cursory look, he couldn¡¯t help but burst with joy! Super God-grade profession, with ¡®God of Evil¡¯s heir¡¯ as her race! Not only was her potential amazing, but her battle power was equally terrifying with the long list of passive and active skills! It could be said that Luo Haoyue was a terrifying existence even among Star-rank powerhouses. She was powerful enough to suppress others of the same ss! He had really gotten lucky this time! If not for Luo Haoyue treating him as the Spider God¡¯s envoy, another vicious fight would be required in order to eliminate the ck Dragon Gangpletely. The most important thing was that Luo Haoyue¡¯s [Spider Shadow Control] skill could definitely y a huge role in the next Zerg invasion! It seems like there is some good in the ¡®man-made god n,¡¯ thought Link, who had taken the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s fruits ofbor, silently. ... At the same time. In a wilderness cemetery more than 100 miles from Dragon City. A muffled sound could suddenly be hearding from inside a coffin on the bare ground. The crow that paused on it spread its wings and flew away with a hoarse cry. Then, there was a bang! The coffin board flew more than ten meters away, and a figure suddenly sat up from the coffin. It was Jiang Cheng. He touched his neck and seemed to be in a state of shock. ¡°I¡¯m sure you didn¡¯t expect me to still be alive, Link. It¡¯s a pity that the Death Substitute Puppet can only revive my body. It can¡¯t transfer the stuff in the personal backpack...¡± Chapter 161: Strange Movement in the Wilderness! All Factions Appear!

Chapter 161: Strange Movement in the Wilderness! All Factions Appear!

¡°This time, I have really gotten careless and failed. I didn¡¯t think that a trip to Dragon City would cost me so much.¡± Jiang Cheng stepped out of the coffin; a touch of resentment and hatred shed across his face, and even his handsome face looked a little distorted. The equipment he carried on him were all very precious, not to mention the Death Substitute Puppet, which could bring a dead person back to life. One of those precious items was a high-quality imitation of a card of rule, which was extremely valuable. It was enough to make all factions jealous! But Link had now taken all of his equipment¡ªincluding the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s research results. It was impossible for Jiang Cheng¡¯s heart not to be filled with resentment! ¡°Fine then, I shall let you take care of it first. In the future, I¡¯ll make you vomit out everything that you took from me with interest.¡± A few crows in the distance cawed continuously, causing the environment to be noisy and eerie. Jiang Cheng¡¯s arm shook, and strands of dark energy immediately gathered. They then extended out like a palm, bringing out a whistling sound of the wind! The crows couldn¡¯t escape at all and were enveloped by the huge ck palm, forcibly being pulled to Jiang Cheng. The corner of Jiang Cheng¡¯s mouth tugged. The giant palm closed into a fist, directly squeezing the three crows into a cloud of blood! Jiang Cheng also didn¡¯t waste the cloud of blood. Under Jiang Cheng¡¯s guidance, the blood mist condensed into bloodstains and gradually formed a somewhat distorted pattern on the ground. It seemed to be a magic circle that exuded a disturbing atmosphere. Having lost all his equipment, Jiang Cheng could only personally draw the spell formation that allowed him to contact his organization. When the spell formation¡¯s final stroke was drawn, mobilizing the magic power injected into it, a projection-like image appeared above the scarlet spell formation. A somewhat blurry human figure could be vaguely seen. The figure seemed to be female. ¡°Oh, it¡¯s Jiang Cheng. Youpleted the task assigned by the organization so quickly? How¡¯s the result? Is there any need to continue investing in the ck Dragon Gang?¡± Jiang Cheng¡¯s eyes twitched fiercely. His expression was strange, and his heart was full of bitterness. Did Iplete the task? The obvious fact is that I suffered a double loss. Not only did I not bring back the results of the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s research, I even lost all my belongings. After pondering for a moment, Jiang Cheng still said, ¡°I failed. A powerful person appeared in Dragon City. He had the aura of at least three gods on his body; he snatched away the ck Dragon Gang¡¯s research data and even killed me once.¡± After listening to Jiang Cheng¡¯s words, the woman in the projection was obviously quite shocked. She was dazed for a few seconds before speaking again. ¡°Even you were killed? It¡¯s really surprising. It seems that this person is really not simple. Let me ask the boss to see what his arrangement for this matter is.¡± The female figure temporarily left after this, obviously going to ask the boss for instructions. As for Jiang Cheng, he waited there silently. After a while, the voice came out again. ¡°The boss asks you toe back and put off the matters in Dragon City first. He will pay attention to this interesting person. There are other things in the organization that the boss requires you to do.¡± ¡°En.¡± Jiang Cheng nodded and waved his hand, shutting off themunication spell formation. He then turned his head and looked in the direction of Dragon City. His lips moved slightly, and he uttered a sentence filled with coldness. ¡°See you next time then, Link. I hope I don¡¯t need to wait for too long.¡± ... A few days passed quickly. Unfallen City. Shops lined the streets, and the [Doomsday Online] yers were chatting with each other. It was a scene of prosperity. ¡°Old Wang cksmith¡¯s opening bargain sale¡ªit¡¯s all top-quality equipment and selling at a 20% discount! Don¡¯t miss it when you pass by.¡± ¡°Want to buy potions? They are good medicines that are necessary when going out of the city to kill monsters and level up. One bottle of potion will ensure that your waist won¡¯t be sore, your legs won¡¯t feel painful, and whatever you eat will taste delicious...¡± ¡°Are there any Priests? We are finding Priests for a teammate, and girls are preferred. We will go out of the city to hunt monsters together!¡± ... The noisy sounds continued. Standing on the city wall, Xue Linglong and the others¡ªwho looked down at this scene¡ªall showed a smile on their faces. ¡°Human beings are truly easily satisfied creatures,¡± said Luo Haoyue coldly with obscure eyes. Zhao Yongkang, who was beside her, nodded. ¡°That¡¯s true. Even though the world has turned cruel, as long as there is still a glimmer of hope, everyone is willing to live with a smile and show the cruel heavens that they are still living to their lives to the fullest.¡± The current Unfallen City had preliminarily formed the special industrial chains unique to the apocalyptic world. Some yers who possessed the power of the natural elements could elerate the maturity of food, and they were continuously producing food. Lifestyle profession yers were responsible for making and repairing equipment. They were also responsible for selling various potions. Somebat profession yers were responsible for clearing out the monsters near the city and obtaining some special materials. Even in the cruel apocalypse, these tens of thousands of people still looked vibrant with life. But the reason they were able to achieve this was naturally inseparable from the city¡¯s protection and powerful strength. Luo Xinghe, Xue Linglong, and the others all looked at Link in unison, with a touch of worship and reverence shing across their faces. It was this man who had ovee all obstacles and killed many powerful monsters. This led to the creation of this city, where humans could survive safely! Link looked at the lively city and was in a good mood. But he knew very well that he had to be prepared for greater threats if he wanted to maintain the current situation. ording to the memories of his previous life, the Undead cmity struck on the tenth day of the apocalypse, and the siege war started. Only a few cities were able to be promoted into human home cities, continuing to stand tall in this world. And this was only the beginning. Two monthster, just as the human race was gradually adapting to the current environment, new spatial cracks appeared! Dense waves of Zergs descended and swept through the world! The Zerg army broke into many cities that survived the Undead cmity, and humans became food for the Zergs and the Petri dishes for theirrvae... Link constantly had to improve his strength. In the apocalypse, only the strong could survive eternally! Link turned his head and asked, ¡°How¡¯s the situation in the wilderness outside the city?¡± Yang Xuerou knew what Link was asking, and she immediately replied. ¡°In the past few days, many forces from different factions have gathered in the Forest of Darkness, seemingly waiting for something. Most of these factions have a home city that has sessfully survived the siege and are very powerful. There are even Stage Five [Doomsday Online] yers among them.¡± Link nodded slightly; he knew what those people were waiting for. The key to the Epochal Ruins was in his hand. The forces from the various factions couldn¡¯t enter the ruins, so they were naturally waiting for him. ¡°It seems that there really are a lot of factions with a profound heritage and resources. Get ready; we will enter the wilderness tomorrow,¡± said Link in a deep voice. He didn¡¯t n to wait any longer; he would start closing the tomorrow. Whether it was the Epochal Ruins or the secrets held by those factions, his goal was to obtain all of them. ¡°So fast? But Link, you just wiped out the ck Dragon Gang not long ago. You haven¡¯t even stayed in the city for five days, yet you n to leave again? Why don¡¯t we prepare for a few more days? Those factions aren¡¯t so easy to deal with,¡± Yang Xuerou advised as worry shed in her eyes. Link shook his head; he had made up his mind. With his currentbat power and the various powerful pieces of equipment, Link wasn¡¯t worried about the Stage Five Star-rank enemies. He only needed to consider the dangers that came from the Epochal Ruins themselves. But in any case, the sooner the Epochal Ruins was opened, the better. It was both a danger and an opportunity¡ªit could help Link expand his advantages! Chapter 162: Epochal Ruins! Three Large Organizations!

Chapter 162: Epochal Ruins! Three Large Organizations!

Seeing Link¡¯s firm eyes, Yang Xuerou could only nod her head in the end and stopped advising him. Perhaps, it is exactly this persistence and fearlessness that created this young man in front of me. ¡°I understand. By the way, these past few days, Lu Da led some researchers and made some practical props based on the research data you brought back. Remember to bring these props tomorrow when leaving.¡± Yang Xuerou pped her hands while talking, and two subordinates carried arge box up the city wall. ¡°The progress is pretty good.¡± Link smiled. In Unfallen City, there was a special research institute called the Research Department, which mainly engaged in the research and development of equipment and some special items. The Research Department¡¯s creation was also a result of Link¡¯s doing. Although many electrical appliances had lost their function due to changes in the world¡¯s nomological rules when the apocalypse descended, it didn¡¯t mean that mankind¡¯s study and development of science and technology were in vain. At this stage, the Research Department was researching how tobine the still usable human technologies with magic. ¡°What good stuff is there?¡± Luo Xinghe looked at the box expectantly. Xue Linglong, Qiao Ruowei, and the others also cast their gazes over. The box was soon opened. There were a few weapons inside, as well as a wristband-like bracelet and things that looked like grenades. At a nce, Link could tell that all these items were aberrated weapons. However, they had all been purified and wouldn¡¯t cause terrifying pollution to humans. Rtively speaking, these weapons¡¯ power was reduced due to being purified, but the burden on their users would also be much smaller. Link casually picked up a pitch-ck spear and saw that it was covered with mysterious lines that looked like dragon scales. This weapon had a domineering appearance, and the spear¡¯s sharp tip was spat out from the dragon¡¯s mouth! Under the sun¡¯s sunshine, a ck light circled the spear. Its appearance truly wasn¡¯t bad, and it was Gold-grade at least. Just nice¡ªit was suitable for Xue Linglong¡¯s usage after he blessed it. Two long des and a bow were also inside, and all of them exuded awe-inspiring auras! ¡°These weapons¡¯ materials were all taken from aberrated monsters. They are more powerful than ordinary weapons.¡± As she said this, Yang Xuerou took out the wristband-like bracelets in the box and distributed them to everyone. A picture of a sword breaking through the sky was engraved on the bracelets, looking domineering and awe-inspiring. The overall design also carried a bit of the cyberpunk style. ¡°This is formunication; a spell formation is engraved within it. It can also be used to check the time. Most of themunication methods are invalid now. With this, your operations will be more convenient.¡± As Yang Xuerou injected magic power into the bracelet, a light screen appeared above the top of the bracelet, disying the current time and everyone¡¯s name on it. As long as the user controlled it with their mind, they could contact the other bracelets¡¯ owners. ¡°This thing is indeed not bad.¡± Zhao Yongkang couldn¡¯t help but praise the bracelets. ¡°Sister Yang, are these grenades? Hasn¡¯t most of the technology-type weapons be unusable?¡± Luo Xinghe asked. Yang Xuerou took out a grenade and spoke with a smile. ¡°These grenades are made of special materials, and spell formations are also engraved inside. As one-time consumables, they store arge amount of energy inside. Although they aren¡¯t as powerful as a Forbidden Curse, they can also cause damage to Stage Four powerhouses.¡± As she spoke, she activated a grenade and threw it out of the city! They heard a loud explosion, which was followed by flying sand and rocks. A terrifying, deep pit also appeared on the ground, and electric currents were shing around it¡ªwhich were quite powerful too. ¡°This one can paralyze and shock the enemy. In addition, there are smoke bombs and incendiary bombs. But since they are made of special materials, the number of grenades made isn¡¯t high. If it¡¯s to equip the five of you, each person can get ten of such grenades.¡± Everyone nodded when they heard this, and they eximed with praise. If this thing was suddenly used in a battle, it could definitely surprise the enemy. No matter how poor the result was, it could still disrupt the opponent and create opportunities for them! Link also said that they weren¡¯t bad. Although these pieces of equipment weren¡¯t of much use to Link, they were very suitable for Xue Linglong and the others. With these items¡ªcoupled with Xue Linglong and the others¡¯ extremely outstandingbat power among Stage Four yers¡ªthey would also be able to pose a threat to Stage Five Star-rank powerhouses! This would undoubtedly make Link more confident in dealing with the dangers that might exist in the Epochal Ruins. ... At the same time, Bright Sun City. A towering city wall stood here. This was also a human home city that had won the siege war, and the light of Order shrouded it. In the magnificent and wide City Master¡¯s Hall. A group of Temple of Light Elders gathered together and respectfully stood in the hall. Ou Mingcheng, the Temple of Light¡¯s Lord, sat high on the City Master¡¯s throne. His facial features were cold and hard, seeming as if they were carved using a knife or axe. He looked very majestic, giving people a feeling of majesty. A middle-aged Elder said in a deep voice, ¡°Lord, by now, many forces are gathered in the wilderness to the south of Unfallen City. It¡¯s said that there are relics from the previous era in the Forest of Darkness¡¯s depths. All of these factions want to get a share of it.¡± ¡°And after we checked the ancient books handed down, there are also sporadic records in this regard. The news should be true.¡± ¡°Oh,¡± Ou Mingcheng responded insipidly, and a meaningful smile shed across his majestic eyes. ¡°Which factions are involved?¡± ¡°Powerhouses from Quicksand City, Huge Deer City, Sword Weapon City, Colored ze Fortress, and other cities are involved. However, these cities should¡¯ve only been instigated and rushed over upon hearing the news. The ones who spread the news toplicate the situation should be the factions behind these cities.¡± ¡°ording to the information obtained by the spies, it can be preliminarily determined that there are threerge organizations¡ªMartial God Hall, Ancient Martial Alliance, and Evil Sect.¡± Upon hearing theserge organizations¡¯ names, Ou Mingcheng¡¯s eyes shed obscurely, and he slowly said, ¡°It¡¯s really lively.¡± The Temple of Light was also a faction with a rich heritage and long history. It had many ancient books and secrets. Before the apocalypse descended, they had already expected and prepared for it. After the apocalyptic world descended, the Temple of Light actively built intelligence channels and sent several elite teams to explore the surrounding areas. Ou Mingcheng was no stranger to these three factions. Martial God Hall was an organization that believed in Chinese gods, and it was said that ancient Qi Refiners were even among them. Ancient Martial Alliance was an organization co-founded by a group of ancient martial art inheritors. Among them were many powerhouses, most of whom excelled in meleebat. Compared with the other tworge organizations, Evil Sect appeared to be more strange and heterogeneous. Most of its members used various kinds of evil methods¡ªvery unpredictable and hard to defend against. It was akin to a demonic organization. These three factions could all be called giants on thend of the Chinese! After the apocalypse descended, they were like fish in the water because most of their members had awakened hidden professions. They quickly adapted to the new world, and not a single one of them was easy to get along with! Some of them even controlled more than one human home city secretly! These powerful factions had all taken part in the event this time. Although they didn¡¯t appear openly, a terrifying storm was still brewing! The Elder spoke again. ¡°Lord, should we also go to the Forest of Darkness and contend for the Epochal Ruins?¡± Chapter 163: Whirlpool! Heading to the Wilderness!

Chapter 163: Whirlpool! Heading to the Wilderness!

Ou Mingcheng, the Temple of Light¡¯s Lord, lowered his head slightly as if he were thinking about something. His knuckles tapped on the throne¡¯s armrest, making a slightly dull sound. He didn¡¯t answer immediately, and he frowned in consideration. The Elders were mostly of the mature and prudent type, so they didn¡¯t rush him. Instead, they quietly waited. After all, this matter was no trivial matter. The powerhouses from several cities would be taking part in the ¡®contest,¡¯ and the various factions would be plotting moves from behind the scene. This might be an opportunity, or it could be a terrible whirlpool of death! Whether the Temple of Light would take the initiative to be involved in this whirlpool had to be carefully considered. The Temple of Light¡¯s Holy Son, Ou Chen, was full of eagerness, apparently making some calctions of his own. In his opinion, since the ruins appeared in the Forest of Darkness¡ªwhich was in the wilderness to the south of Unfallen City¡ªhe could take the chance to drop by and visit Link. Ou Chen had constantly been thinking about making Link join the Temple of Light! Moreover, he had undergone the baptism of light three times now. The aura exuding from his body was extremely vast¡ªeven his skin was glowing with a faint golden radiance. He had also be a Stage Five Star-rank existence! Having reached this stage, he was also considered a top powerhouse, even in the Temple of Light! Hehe, with my current strength, I should be able to bring Brother Link to the Temple of Light already, right? Ou Chen thought this silently, and he smiled uncontrobly, even rubbing his hands with excitement. Both Wu Hao and Tian Mingyuan¡ªwho were standing beside Ou Chen¡ª frowned slightly, sensing something amiss in their hearts. Holy Son¡¯sughter is... a little vulgar. Something¡¯s not right. There¡¯s something wrong with the Holy Son... The two of them were thinking about this in their hearts when they saw Ou Chen stepping out of the queue. After paying a salute to the Lord, Ou Chen solemnly said, ¡°Lord, I think we should participate in this contest for the relics!¡± ¡°Oh.¡± Ou Mingcheng raised his head, gave Ou Chen a meaningful look, and motioned him to continue talking. ¡°First of all, Elder Tian, Elder Wu, and I have explored Dragon City before, and we are familiar with the Forest of Darkness.¡± ¡°Secondly, we have made friends with Link, the City Master of Unfallen City. We can form an alliance with Unfallen City to advance and retreat together. Since the descent of the apocalypse, the world we live in has be extremely dangerous. Only by continuously improving our strength can we continue to stand tall in such a world.¡± ¡°Therefore, I think that we shouldn¡¯t miss this opportunity to explore the ruins!¡± As they listened to Ou Chen¡¯s sonorous words, many Elders in the hall nodded silently. The Holy Son had finally grown up and saw things from the bigger picture now! Some Elders agreed. ¡°The Holy Son insight is indeed good. I think the same way too; this opportunity shouldn¡¯t be missed!¡± At the side, Wu Hao and Tian Mingyuan shook their heads slightly as they looked at the energetic Ou Chen. The Holy Son is most likely thinking about going out to y again. The two of them thought this silently, and ck lines appeared on their foreheads. Ou Mingcheng seemed to be persuaded and nodded slightly. He was also supportive of exploring the Epochal Ruins. Moreover, Ou Mingcheng had an unexinable feeling about the ruins in the Forest of Darkness. He felt as if the ruins should belong to the Temple of Light in the first ce... In actual fact, this feeling was not groundless. In Link¡¯s previous life, the ruins did indeed belong to the Temple of Light. However, this opportunity was now snatched away by Link, which was why Ou Mingcheng had this vague feeling in his heart. Seeing how Ou Chen and the Elders all thought the same way, Ou Mingcheng naturally wouldn¡¯t refuse. ¡°Okay, the Temple of Light will also send a team to the Forest of Darkness this time.¡± The Temple of Light¡¯s Elders had no objection, and they bowed their heads, silently carrying out the rituals belonging to the Temple of Light. ¡°May the Light be eternal; may the Gods protect us!¡± ... The next day, early morning. Unfallen City. The morning sunlight shone down from the clouds, bright and warm, and everyone in the city had also started a new and busy day. In the City Master¡¯s Hall, Link distributed the blessed aberrated weapons to Xue Linglong and the others. As for Qiao Ruowei, she received Jiang Cheng¡¯s scalpel. After being blessed by Link, this scalpel had reached Epic-grade, not a single bit inferior to the aberrated weapons. It was quite extraordinary. Everyone reced their old equipment with the new ones, and all of them could sense that theirbat power had once again increased by quite a bit! Link said to Yang Xuerou, ¡°After I leave, I will leave it to you to deal with the matters in Unfallen City. If you have any urgent matters, contact me with the bracelet.¡± Yang Xuerou nodded, affection and the unwillingness to separate shing faintly in her eyes. Although she had thousands of words to say in her heart, the only sentence that came from her mouth was: ¡°Okay. You must pay attention to your own safety.¡± ¡°En.¡± Link nodded slightly. Everything had been arranged properly. Link didn¡¯t procrastinate and immediately waved his hand as he shouted in a low voice. ¡°Move out!¡± ¡°Yes, Lord!¡± Xue Linglong and the others responded one after another, their faces full of determination. For this trip to the Forest of Darkness, Link only brought Xue Linglong, Luo Xingyao, Luo Haoyue, and Zhao Yongkang along. The rest, including the guardian beast¡ªBlood Shadow¡ªand Star Moon, all stayed behind to guard Unfallen City. After all, Unfallen City was Link¡¯s foundation, and the City of the Undead¡ªwhich was inside Unfallen City¡ªwas of utmost importance. Moreover, the remaining Stage Four powerhouses¡ªsuch as Qiao Ruowei and Luo Xinghe¡ªwere also responsible for bringing some fighters that were worthy of grooming into the dungeon to increase their level andbat experience. In the apocalypse, personal strength was certainly important. However, thebat power of the forces under hismand also couldn¡¯t be ignored. As for Xue Linglong, Luo Xingyao, and Zhao Yongkang, they had all reached Stage Four, Level 10. They were only one step away from reaching Stage Five Star-rank. In this current period, there were also many Stage Five powerhouses in the Forest of Darkness. Thus, Link decided to bring them and let them feel the domains of Stage Five Star-rank powerhouses as much as possible. This was so that they could umte insights and experience, therebypleting their own domain construction as soon as possible. Link led the three of them out of Unfallen City and traveled into the wilderness. Originally, Link could just teleport all four of them there. He had the [Ring of Teleportation] in his hand, and the Epochal Ruins¡¯ space node was also recorded in it. But the ruins in the Forest of Darkness were currently being watched by many forces. Rashly teleporting inside would only alert these forces, making Link¡¯s group theirmon target. Not that they could pose a threat to Link, but there wasn¡¯t a need to make his group amon enemy. Therefore, Link nned to travel to the Forest of Darkness on foot and also find out the details of those forces along the way. But not long after they left Unfallen City, a group of five people suddenly appeared in their sights. All five of these people exuded fierce auras. They had quite high strength, and they were Stage Four powerhouses at least. Prior to the siege war, Stage Four [Doomsday Online] yers were still the top powerhouses among humans, and their numbers were extremely low. With the siege war¡¯s end and the passage of time, more and more people had advanced to Stage Four. A small number of Stage Five Star-rank powerhouses had even appeared inrge factions. ¡°Eh? These people¡¯s auras are quite extraordinary; they are all Stage Four powerhouses!¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t expect to run into Stage Four powerhouses here. It seems that your team is from the nearby Unfallen City, right?¡± Chapter 164: Conflict! Dominant Overpowering!

Chapter 164: Conflict! Dominant Overpowering!

Link andpany all did not speak. They were thinking about which city this group of chance visitors hade from, and the five people across them had posed the question first. They¡¯d met on a narrow path, and the background of these people were unknown. Thus, Xue Linglong, Luo Xingyao, and the others all inwardly grew vignt. All their gazes were directed toward Link, wanting to know their City Master¡¯s intentions. Link remained with an aloof countenance, and he said calmly, ¡°Mm, we¡¯re from Unfallen City.¡± ¡°That¡¯s it; you must¡¯ve received the news too. There is a historical ruin in the Forest of Darkness, which is south of the wilderness. It is said that the ruin came from the previous era.¡± At this point, the brow of the man who spoke arched as he looked smilingly at Link. He could tell that this young man was this team¡¯s leader. ¡°You people should be heading to the historical ruin as well. Why don¡¯t we group up? I¡¯m Chen Lingfeng, and we have five Stage Four powerhouses on our side. Together with all of you, our strength will be significantly boosted.¡± ¡°Whether it¡¯s for self-preservation or vying for the chance to enter the historical ruin, our chances will be much greater.¡± From the five-man group, a skinny man added, ¡°Yes, join us! We guarantee that you¡¯ll have a good life!¡± His sight continuously lingered on the fewdies¡ªXue Linglong, Luo Xingyao, and Luo Haoyue¡ªand his gaze was heated. Gorgeous [Doomsday Online] yers weren¡¯t seen often. Not to mention that the fewdies were all Stage Four powerhouses, which was even rarer. It caused a desire to conquer them to rise in one¡¯s heart involuntarily. The skinny man¡¯s Adam¡¯s apple moved as he swallowed a mouthful of saliva. His mouth became slightly dry. Xue Linglong and Luo Xingyao both furrowed their slender brows. Luo Haoyue even wore a hostile look. If it weren¡¯t because Link had given her a look, she probably would¡¯ve struck right away. Despite this, Luo Haoyue still scorned them coldly. ¡°Have a good life just with the capabilities of you few?¡± This taunt caused the countenances of the five people across them to change slightly. Link smiled; he felt that making use of this team to understand the Forest of Darkness¡¯s current situation would be good too. ¡°We can group up, but there can only be one voice in the team.¡± Chen Lingfeng¡ªwho headed the five-man team¡ªfrowned upon hearing Link¡¯s words. Never mind that the woman is entric, but this youth before me is clearly reversing the roles of the host and the guest. He wants to vie for themand of the entire team. His gaze turned cold, and he said in a hostile tone, ¡°Friend, you might have gotten it wrong. It¡¯s not that I¡¯m not begging you to join us, but that you must do so.¡± The skinny man also spoke with a coldugh. ¡°We are people of Quicksand City, and we are on friendly terms with a Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse, Jiang Wencheng. Allowing you people to party up with us is doing you a favor; don¡¯t be ungrateful!¡± A sparkling glow shed through Link¡¯s eyes as he found this situation increasingly interesting. Since these people were on friendly terms with a Star-rank powerhouse, it was very suspicious that they hade here instead of riding on that Jiang Wencheng¡¯s coattails. Could it be that the situation in the Forest of Darkness has be chaotic? The various factions¡¯ powerhouses are fighting one another, which is why they came here to capture able-bodied men? Link casually waved his hand, and indifference was written all over his face. ¡°Noisy.¡± Chen Lingfeng and his fourpanions sensed the contempt and disdain in Link¡¯s attitude. A flood of anger rose in their chests. They had mentioned a Star-rank powerhouse, Jiang Wencheng, but this Unfallen City team before them still refused to yield obediently. To Chen Lingfeng andpany, they felt that this team truly didn¡¯t know what was good and what was bad for them. They were virtually tempting fate! A sturdy man, armed with a huge axe, in the team immediately shouted, ¡°Rascal, do you know who you are speaking to?¡± ¡°It seems like you want to do this the hard way!¡± ¡°You people must leave with us today! This is the order of a Stage Five powerhouse. If Unfallen City dares to defy this order, just wait for your city to be massacred!¡± The look on Chen Lingfeng¡¯s face was no longer peaceful. He finally ripped off his hypocritical mask and revealed his hidden fangs. Up till now, they were still ordering the people about with arrogant airs,pletely unaware of the terrifying existence that they had offended! Massacre the city? Once this sentence was said, the atmosphere instantly stagnated. The gazes that Zhao Yongkang, Xue Linglong, and the others directed at Chen Lingfeng and his party even carried some pity... ¡°Is that so.¡± Link tugged at the corner of his lips, bringing out an icy smile. Xue Linglong andpany took the hint as cold glows rose in their eyes. With a sp of their palms, the weapons stored in their individual backpacks appeared in their hands. Sharp auras emerged at once. A hint of contemtion appeared at the corners of her mouth as Luo Haoyue¡ªwho had been held back for a long time¡ªno longer retained her restrained aura. Then, frightening momentum immediately erupted. It was sinister and terrifying¡ªeven the skies turned dark because of it. ¡°Apologies, my Lord Envoy isn¡¯t in a good mood, so please go to hell, everyone...¡± A sweet voice sounded, but the words it carried didn¡¯t have the slightest warmth. Instead, it directly set off chills in the hearts of Chen Lingfeng andpany! ¡°The aura of a Stage Five powerhouse!¡± ¡°You¡¯re actually a Stage Five powerhouse! How can this be?¡± The faces of Chen Lingfeng and his party instantly paled, and the hair on their back stood on end. A chill even infiltrated their bodies at once, freezing their soul! Stage Five powerhouse¡ªthey were the topbat forces at this present stage. They were very rare, even amongst the various major factions. How could they expect to actually encounter one here?! Chen Lingfeng and the others had dumbstruck expressions. Their hearts were filled with surprise and terror, and their minds were rather stunned! They hadn¡¯t been mentally prepared for this present situation¡ªwhich had instantly changed¡ªat all! It was like a sheep¡ªwhich one originally thought to be weak and easy to bully¡ªsuddenly bing an ancient dragon. It was horrifying! ¡°Split up and escape!¡± Chen Lingfeng abruptly returned to his senses, let out a yell, and fled into the distance. He totally didn¡¯t dare to remain in the same spot. Seriously, the five of them¡ªall Stage Four powerhouses¡ªwould be too few before a Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse! Moreover, there were still several other Stage Four powerhouses. If they were to fight, that would absolutely just be courting death! The remaining four people also knew themselves well. Without a second word, they all chose to escape. The attributes of Stage Four [Doomsday Online] yers weren¡¯t low. In the present life-and-death crisis, the few people even stimted the potential in their bodies, wishing to grow an extra leg. They had covered close to 100 meters in the blink of an eye. ¡°Can you escape?¡± Luo Haoyue¡¯s slender finger slightly lifted as if she were beckoning them. Streams of spider silk and dense spiderwebs swiftly extended out from beneath her feet and covered the ground. The ground¡ªwhich was originally overgrown with weeds¡ªinstantly seemed to be covered by a massive. An aura that made one restless spread with it. The speed at which the spiderweb extended was actually even faster than the speed at which Chen Lingfeng and the other Stage Four powerhouses were running! ¡°This is a domain!¡± ¡°It¡¯s the domain of a Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse!¡± Chen Lingfeng andpany had been around, so they knew that they were being dragged into a domain. They revealed looks of fear and let out shouts! Their escaping speeds slowed down at once. They even found it difficult to stride forward; it seemed as if streams of invisible spider silk had tightly wound around their bodies, restricting their movements! Chapter 165: Boundary Breaking Talisman! Undercurrent!

Chapter 165: Boundary Breaking Talisman! Undercurrent!

Chen Lingfeng andpany exhausted everything they had; some released skills, wanting to iste the domain¡¯s effects. Others¡ªwith weapons in hand¡ªruthlessly hacked at the dense spider silk on the ground, wanting to destroy the domain. However, they were wide-eyed the next moment; their bodies were stiff because the crisis was much more than these things... Indescribable, dreamlike murmurs indistinctly sounded by their ears! It sounded as if someone was sleep-talking and chanting beside them. A strange force struck as though it sought to drag them into infinite dreams. Before their eyes, distorted spider shadows also appeared; it was unknown whether it was their imagination or reality. ¡°No, don¡¯te here!¡± Chen Lingfeng¡¯s eyes turned bloodshot. The streaks of blood stood out, making him seem fearful and restless. This was his first time encountering such a strange situation. He could only swing the longsword in his hand constantly, driving away the spider shadows that aroused his infinite fear. The sound of wind breaking was ceaseless. The radiance of every skill bloomed, but the spider shadow before him wasn¡¯t affected in the slightest; it still closed in at every step. And in Link and the others¡¯ field of vision, it looked as if Chen Lingfeng had gone mad¡ªhe was striking at the air. A pitch-ck spider shadow¡ªwhich crawled out from Luo Haoyue¡¯s shadow¡ªhad soundlessly moved behind him. The eight slender and sharp chelicerae were like eight des. They quietly folded in, leaving behind pitch-ck afterimages in the air. The next moment, crimson blood and body parts sttered; there was only a pile of broken limbs and minced flesh on the ground! The remaining four people¡¯s states were nearly the same as that of Chen Lingfeng¡ªeveryone was struggling on the edge of death. Luo Haoyue had already transformed into the God of Evil¡¯s heir. Such powers of madness and aberration were something Chen Lingfeng andpany couldn¡¯t resist. After all, this was the first time they encountered it. Presently, even Xue Linglong and the others¡ªwho weren¡¯t the attack¡¯s targets¡ªhad turned several hints paler. They were slightly affected by the ravings and pollution. Zhao Yongkang was even frowning. Such a profane and strange aura had evoked unpleasant memories in him. ¡°Leave one alive,¡± Link ordered coolly. Luo Haoyue chuckled. ¡°As you wish.¡± Soon, the spider shadows that crawled out of her shadow returned to it. But after devouring four humans¡¯ flesh and blood, their bodies had indistinctly grown bigger. Thest spider shadow even brought a man¡ªwho was solidly tied up with spider silk¡ªto the front of Link andpany. ¡°Speak, what exactly did that Jiang Wencheng get you people to do?¡± asked Link. However, that remaining survivor looked full of terror. He constantly shouted, and there was absolutely no way ofmunicating. Link felt a little helpless. This was the only con of Luo Haoyue¡¯s ability; it caused one to fall into madness and fear too easily... He summoned six-winged Angel Yuna and got Yuna to dispel the effects of mental pollution for this captive first. Waves of holy light bloomed. Under Yuna¡¯s [Holy Light Purification], the captured Wang Hao finally broke free from the frightening imagination and illusion. ¡°Confess your motives; otherwise, you will experience something even more frightening than what you encountered earlier,¡± Luo Haoyue warned calmly. Wang Hao was about to wet his pants! Everything he had encountered earlier had left him in utter despair. He was still trembling all over right now; he didn¡¯t want to experience such things again. At this very moment, he simply felt regret in his heart, unparalleled regret... If they had known that a Stage Five powerhouse was in this team, they absolutely wouldn¡¯t have dared to be so impudent and arrogant. However, the universe had millions of different types of medicines¡ªall types except for regret medicine! Before long, Wang Hao had spilled everything he knew. It turned out that, since the various forces didn¡¯t have the key to open the historical ruin, the various forces had to wait for the person carrying the key to appear after they had gathered at the Forest of Darkness. But subsequently, the people of Evil Sect brought out a [Boundary Breaking Talisman]. It was said that this [Boundary Breaking Talisman] could break open the protective ward outside of the historical ruin and that one could enter the ruin without the key. However, a powerhouse above the Star-rank was needed tounch this [Boundary Breaking Talisman]. If a Star-rank powerhouse wished tounch it, they would need to gather the strength of many people. These people would have the strength in their bodies drained instantly, falling into a long period of weakness. In the situation where the wolves were waiting, there naturally weren¡¯t any Star-rank powerhouse willing to sacrifice their strength and let their bodies turn weak. Hence, after a discussion between the various forces¡¯ top powerhouses, they decided to use an array formation recorded in the ancient books. They would use arge number of Stage Four and Stage Three powerhouses as the array¡¯s base to gather power and use it tounch the [Boundary Breaking Talisman]. This would fulfill their aim. But this array carried a massive risk; it could be said that the people used as the base would very likely face death. Stage Four and Stage Three powerhouses were also the various cities¡¯ backbone. The various forces didn¡¯t wish to lose too much of theirbat capabilities. Hence, they dispatched people to search everywhere. Wang Hao¡¯s party of five had been following the instructions of Ancient Martial Alliance¡¯s Star-rank powerhouse, Jiang Wen Cheng. They were toe to Unfallen City and search for [Doomsday Online] yers¡ªthis was why they met Link andpany. After learning the whole story, Zhao Yongkang and the others¡¯ countenances all turned grimmer. None of those big forces were good, but this was the natural state of the apocalyptic world. Bloodiness and brutality were normal. Link¡ªwho had lived two lifetimes as a human¡ªdidn¡¯t have much to feel emotional about. He merely searched for information regarding the Ancient Martial Alliance and Evil Sect in his mind. Previously, Unfallen City had also sent people to gather intelligence in the wilderness. However, the main objective was still to consolidate the people exiled in the wilderness. Among the information sent back, they only knew that the people of Quicksand City, Huge Deer City, and Sword Weapon City had set their sights on the Epochal Ruins. Unexpectedly, there were also Ancient Martial Alliance, Evil Sect, and other forces involved. ording to the memories of Link¡¯s previous life, Ancient Martial Alliance and Evil Sect could be considered the Chinesend¡¯s top forces. In the early stages of the apocalypse, these two forces rose swiftly and abruptly; they even controlled more than one human home city. Their knowledge and resources were deep-rooted. So much so that even the Temple of Light from the same period was inferior whenpared to them. However, the Undead Scourge wasn¡¯t all there was to the apocalypse. As crises arrived again and again, many human home cities that originally stood tall were destroyed. Finally, they were left with only a few cities and the five major cities that could be called the super home cities. The Temple of Light, with ample reserve strength, upied one of them. People from the Ancient Martial Alliance and Evil Sect? No wonder they are so confident, wanting to enter the historical ruin forcefully. It¡¯s bing more and more interesting, Link thought inwardly, and he led everyone to continue heading toward the Forest of Darkness. As for the Stage Five powerhouse called Jiang Wencheng, Link also had an impression of him. However, it wasn¡¯t because of this person¡¯s future aplishments. In reality, although Jiang Wencheng had a glorious moment now since he was an illustrious Stage Five powerhouse, his potential wascking. He waspletely unable to contest with the heroes of theter generations. So much so that his radiance waspletely concealed in the era where the stars were bright and heroes came to the forefront, bing utterly dull. The reason why Link had an impression of him was that the one who killed this person in the future was a person strong enough to rank among the top 100 powerhouses in the human alliance! It was unknown whether he could encounter this person this time, so Link slightly anticipated this... Chapter 166: Forest of Darkness! Reunion!

Chapter 166: Forest of Darkness! Reunion!

In the depths of the wilderness, the Forest of Darkness. Under the corrosion of an unknown force, all the trees in this area took on a charred state, and the leaves were withered. Shriveled branches grew upward in a distorted manner. It seemed like many ghost ws had popped out, looking twisted and deste. Grimace-like patterns had even appeared on the tree trunks, making this ce even more eerie and frightening! This ce should¡¯ve been a paradise for monsters and the forbidden zone for humans. But during this period of time, the Forest of Darkness¡ªwhere even the refugees exiled to the wilderness didn¡¯t dare to step into¡ªhad gathered arge number of [Doomsday Online] yers. The monsters upying this area were also wiped out by the yers. In ce of them were staggered tents and erected campsites, astonishingly turning the area into a gathering ground for humans. However, there were significant gaps between all of these campsites¡ªthe distinction between groups was clearly made. One could tell that it wasn¡¯t that harmonious between these [Doomsday Online] yers. Instead, they were on guard, belonging to different factions, respectively. In the Forest of Darkness¡¯s center was also a massive pit. Mysterious lines and images had been drawn at the bottom of the pit using special materials. Above it, lying this way and that way, were people that had been tied up or fallen into aa. Outside the pit, two figures proudly stood with their hands behind their backs, apathetically watching as the unconscious [Doomsday Online] yers were thrown into the pit by their subordinates. Both these figures radiated an aura that was entirely different from others. The aura couldn¡¯t be considered majestic or mysterious, but it was outstanding in any case. They were clearly the best among the [Doomsday Online] yers¡ªStage Five Star-rank powerhouses that many people looked up to. Ancient Martial Alliance¡¯s Jiang Wencheng was one of them. His face was handsome and mature, and he was about 30 years of age. He was dressed in a blue robe that had quite an ancient style. This piece of clothing was high-level defensive equipment. The other person was a powerhouse sent by the Evil Sect. He was also the one who suggested using the [Boundary Breaking Talisman] to break open the Epochal Ruins¡¯ barrier, Zhu Changfeng. This Star-rank powerhouse¡¯s appearance wasn¡¯t exceptional; it was even somewhat ordinary. Zhu Changfeng was dressed in ck. He was armed with a staff that was twisted out using dead wood, and a bell was even hanging from it. Like the ancient witches, he carried a mysterious and gloomy disposition. Thud! Thud! Among the stifled noises, several more people were pushed into the pit. Jiang Wencheng put on a contemtive smile, and his handsome face appeared to be a little clouded. ¡°So many people want to take their share of the loot, but they¡¯re merely seeking their own doom. Why didn¡¯t they consider whether this is a ce they can have a hand in?¡± The majority of the people inside the pit were [Doomsday Online] yers that had rushed here upon hearing the news. They wanted to follow behind the various major factions and obtain some gains. Unexpectedly, they were used as the array¡¯s foundation, and their lives were now in peril. In reality, the present Forest of Darkness had already been divided into three camps. Other than the people from the three sects¡ªMartial God Hall, Ancient Martial Alliance, and Evil Sect¡ªeveryone else had been made unconscious and thrown into therge pit. Even some lone wolves with exceptionalbat ability could not escape. Jiang Wencheng looked toward Zhu Changfeng, and a hint of impatience indistinctly shed through his eyes. ¡°Isn¡¯t it enough now that we already have such a strong ¡®array foundation?¡¯ How much longer do we need before we can open this historical ruin?¡± Zhu Changfeng of Evil Sect pursed his lips and smiled. ¡°A watched pot never boils. This historical ruin isn¡¯t simple; otherwise, it wouldn¡¯t have tempted the factions behind you and me. If we want to break it open forcefully, we naturally need immense energy.¡± ¡°Or...¡± Zhu Changfeng paused for a moment, his gaze darting toward the fewckeys following behind Jiang Wencheng. ¡°If Brother Jiang is willing to give up some subordinates, we will be able to speed up the process.¡± Jiang Wencheng¡¯s face instantly turned cold, and he no longer responded. Three major forces were gathered here. Although they had entered an alliance on the surface, maintaining restraint and peace, they each had their respective schemes in their heart. Once the historical ruin was opened, the so-called allies would instantly be enemies! Who would be willing to lose their strength at such a time? Moreover, Jiang Wencheng also knew that, while the three factions seemed to be well-matched in strength¡ªeach had a Stage Five powerhouse presiding over them¡ªthis was merely their strength on the surface. If one were to say that Evil Sect and Martial God Hall had no contingency ns, he would never believe it... Zhu Changfeng¡¯s brows furrowed, and he asked, ¡°Where¡¯s Brother He?¡± Jiang Wencheng shot a look in the direction of the campsite and sneered. ¡°Probably staying at the campsite. He Lunhai is a member of Martial God Hall; he naturally cherishes his reputation, so he isn¡¯t willing to wallow in the mire with us. He¡¯s afraid of dirtying his hands.¡± Zhu Changfeng smiled and said, ¡°He¡¯s just pretending to be noble.¡± One had to know that nobody had objected back when the few factions held a discussion, wanting to use arge number of yers as the array¡¯s foundation to break open the Epochal Ruins¡¯ barrier. He Lunhai pretending to know nothing right now was merely deceiving himself and others. Right then, a buzz sounded. Jiang Wencheng pulled out a jade token from his bosom and ced it by his ear. This was clearly amunication device within Ancient Martial Alliance. ¡°Someone ising this way? All right... I got it.¡± Jiang Wencheng smilingly put the jade token away. He then said to Zhu Changfeng, ¡°Someone ising. It is said that there are quite a number of Stage Four powerhouses and also a Stage Five existence. Shall we go wee them?¡± ¡°Stage Five powerhouse? With them, that should be just about enough.¡± Zhu Changfeng nodded, a hint of heat shing across his eyes. ... Half an hour ago, in the wilderness. Link andpany were currently advancing to the Forest of Darkness when noisy footsteps suddenly sounded behind them. Evidently, a group of fairly high-level [Doomsday Online] yers was also heading in the direction of the Forest of Darkness. With the lesson they learned after encountering Quicksand City¡¯s team earlier, Xue Linglong and the others all stopped and gripped their weapons tightly, prepared to fight at any time. But as the two groups drew near, a surprised shout abruptly sounded by everyone¡¯s ears. ¡°Brother Link¡¯s party is in front! Brother Link, it seems like you and my Temple of Light are really fated!¡± Hearing this voice, Link didn¡¯t have to turn back to know who was here¡ªit was the Temple of Light¡¯s Holy Son, Ou Chen. Ou Chen appeared to be very happy that they could run into Link¡¯s party on the road. However, Tian Mingyuan and Wu Hao¡ªwho followed behind Ou Chen¡ªfelt the corners of their eyes twitch. How is this being fated? Previously, Ou Chen specially made a trip to Unfallen City with us. After learning that Link and the others had set off, we then tried to catch up as quickly as possible. ¡°Brother Link, I¡¯m already a Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse now! Let¡¯s form an alliance again. With a strong alliance, we will certainly be able to make this trip worthwhile!¡± Ou Chen rattled away. But Link¡¯s gaze directly bypassed him as he nodded toward Tian Mingyuan and Wu Hao, who were behind him. ¡°Elder Tian, Elder Wu.¡± Tian Mingyuan and Wu Hao also smiled; they thought very highly of Link to begin with. The few people struck up a conversation, leaving Ou Chen hanging. Ou Chen¡¯s expression instantly turned stiff. He¡ªwho had advanced to Stage Five and became a Star-rank powerhouse¡ªstill didn¡¯t have much influence... Wu Hao said, ¡°Little Brother Link should be heading to the Forest of Darkness too. Why don¡¯t we go together? We¡¯ll be able to watch out for one another.¡± Link didn¡¯t reject and nodded his head. ¡°Okay.¡± Chapter 167: Arriving At The Peripheral! Wolves in Sheep鈥檚 Clothing!

Chapter 167: Arriving At The Peripheral! Wolves in Sheep¡¯s Clothing!

The Temple of Light had sent people that Link knew; he didn¡¯t mind traveling with them. Of course, it was impossible to share the Epochal Ruins. That was all Link had. But as both parties were friends, Link didn¡¯t mind protecting them. After all, it wasn¡¯t too peaceful in the Forest of Darkness. Seeing that Link had yet to break through Stage Five and wasn¡¯t the top powerhouse at the current moment, Tian Mingyuan and Wu Hao also had the intention of taking care of him. However, they didn¡¯t despise Link because of that. It was important to know that this young man had killed a Stage Four powerhouse when he was Stage Three. Based on the fact that he was able to defeat someone higher leveled than him, Link definitely couldn¡¯t be underestimated. He definitely had a hidden card up his sleeve. Both parties traveled together. With Ou Chen the chatterbox around, the atmosphere was very cordial. Link also learned a lot of information about the Evil Sect, Ancient Martial Alliance, and Martial God Hall. These three powerful factions had sent Star-rank powerhouses with at least 20 to 30 Stage Four powerhouses under them. The team sent by the Temple of Light wasn¡¯t weak either. Two of them were Star-rank powerhouses, and five of them were Stage Four powerhouses. Other than Ou Chen, Wu Hao had also advanced to Star-rank. Tian Mingyuan was also Stage Four, Level 9, so hisbat prowess was powerful. Link and the others also shared the news about Quicksand City with Ou Chen. After finding out that the three powerful factions were capturing Stage Three and Stage Four [Doomsday Online] yers in order to open the ruins, the people from the Temple of Light revealed shocked expressions. ¡°What? The three factions are actually plotting to do this? They are disregarding other people¡¯s lives for the sake of the ruins? This cannot be tolerated! It¡¯s no wonder we didn¡¯t receive any news for the past two days. Our Temple of Light scout must¡¯ve fallen into their hands!¡± ¡°Brother Link, we cannot do nothing. We must not allow them to behave in this manner!¡± Ou Chen was filled with righteous indignation and appeared furious. Link only nodded; he didn¡¯t say anything. Although the big factions mostly sheltered and supported evil, Link understood the nature of the Temple of Light¡¯s Holy Son. The Temple of Light¡¯s Holy Son wasn¡¯t pretending. His sense of justice was just stronger. Even in the cruel apocalypse, Ou Chen was one of the few people with a heart of justice. Wu Hao¡¯s expression changed. He wasn¡¯t as rash as Ou Chen, so he immediately frowned and said, ¡°Holy Son, don¡¯t be impulsive. When the situation is like this, we must be vignt.¡± Tian Mingyuan nodded and continued, ¡°That¡¯s right. The three big factions have each sent a Stage Five powerhouse. If they act against us together, the consequences will be dire.¡± Both Elders had begun to think about it carefully, and they even had thoughts of retreating. After all, it was a tough fight to go against the three big factions with their current manpower. They hade for the ruins. If they didn¡¯t get anything in the end and got themselves into trouble instead... Both of them pondered over it, but they were unable to dissuade the Holy Son¡ªwho insisted on going to the Forest of Darkness. Tian Mingyuan and Wu Hao could only give up and agree to go to the Forest of Darkness. The reason behind this decision was mainly the fact that Link was with them. Due to this, their team wasn¡¯t considered weak. The three big factions each had their thinking, and they were all working toward the same goal. Hence, they might still have a chance against them. Moreover, there was no turning back. This opportunity to explore the ruins was hard toe by; there was no reason for the Temple of Light to miss it. All of them were the few top powerhouses among the humans at this stage, and their physical qualities were extraordinary. They soon approached the mountain range where the Forest of Darkness was located. Link¡ªwho had always been keenly observant¡ªimmediately realized that someone was watching them in the dark. ¡°There¡¯s a scout in the forest on the left,¡± stated Link coldly. Hearing that, Xue Linglong and the others grew vignt. The people from the Temple of Light also turned toward the left side in unison, prepared to fight. And the scout¡ªwhom Jiang Wencheng had nted in the forest¡ªhad already reported Link and the others¡¯ location to him. Seeing that he was discovered, he stopped hiding and walked out of the forest calmly. ¡°Everyone, please don¡¯t be nervous. I don¡¯t mean any harm; I¡¯m here to wee you.¡± On the left side of the forest, a young man raised his hands up as he spoke, indicating that he meant no harm. However, Link and the others clearly didn¡¯t trust him so easily, and they looked at him coldly. Wu Hao questioned solemnly, ¡°Who sent you here?¡± That young man seemed extremely confident as he calmly said, ¡°I¡¯m from the Ancient Martial Alliance. I¡¯m under themand of Star-rank powerhouse Jiang Wencheng. The reason why I¡¯m here is to wee everyone and to share the ruins within the Forest of Darkness.¡± Share the ruins? Ou Chen almostughed. It is impossible for these people to be so kind. Just as the young man spoke, the sound of wind gushing could be heard from within the forest. Several powerful auras were quickly approaching them. ¡°Someone is here!¡± Tian Mingyuan said solemnly, holding his staff tightly. Wu Hao¡¯s expression became even more solemn as he held his saber, guarding the area beside Ou Chen. Link remained calm and only looked in the direction of the approaching auras; his gaze was deep. Soon, more than a few shadows appeared in front of them. The leaders were Ancient Martial Alliance¡¯s Jiang Wencheng and Evil Sect¡¯s Zhu Changfeng. The imposing Stage Five Star-rank auras emanated from the two of them without reservation! It made the few Stage Four powerhouses from the Temple of Light¡¯s team feel palpitations and fear. One should know that the difference between a Stage Four and a Stage Five was vast! All Stage Five powerhouses had built their own domains and had a preliminary grasp of a nomological power. They had begun the climb to the stage of sanctification, and their auras were powerful enough to suppress an ordinary Stage Four powerhouse! The foolish thing was that Ou Chen and Wu Hao had also taken a step forward and released their own auras, offsetting the other party¡¯s suppression. Jiang Wencheng smiled to ease the somewhat gloomy atmosphere. ¡°Haha. Everyone, please don¡¯t be on your guard. We are all here for the ruins, and we have no intention of hogging the ruins. We should all work together and share this ruin.¡± Zhu Changfeng nodded slowly and continued, ¡°That¡¯s right. It¡¯s still a bit difficult to enter the ruins now, so we should focus on opening the ruins. You all might as welle with us to take a look near the ruins.¡± Both Jiang Wencheng and Zhu Changfeng appeared kind, looking as though they were going to share the ruins. However, the people from the Temple of Light were wary. Wu Hao and Tian Mingyuan looked at each other, with signs of relief in their eyes. If they hadn¡¯t met Link and the others on the way, they would¡¯ve been kept in the dark. These two were clearly wolves in sheep¡¯s clothing! Chapter 168: The Plot Was Exposed! Trick!

Chapter 168: The Plot Was Exposed! Trick!

¡°Everyone, please.¡± Jiang Wencheng smiled as he moved out of the way; he even made a weing gesture for them to enter. With his handsome face, Jiang Wencheng indeed looked courteous. If ordinary [Doomsday Online] yers were treated in this manner by Star-rank powerhouses, they would definitely feel ttered and form a good impression of them. But Link and the others¡ªwho had long known these people¡¯s true nature¡ªsniggered in their hearts. For a time, the Temple of Light¡¯s people and Link¡ªalong with his people¡ªdidn¡¯t move, making the atmosphere slightly awkward. Several [Doomsday Online] yers¡ªwho were following behind Jiang Wencheng¡ªfrowned upon seeing the others be so unappreciative. Their expressions were cold. Jiang Wencheng¡ªwho felt like he was being embarrassed¡ªsensed a sh of anger in his heart. However, his expression didn¡¯t change. He only smiled and slowly withdrew his hand. At this moment, Link suddenly took a step forward. He looked at Wu Hao and Tian Mingyuan, and slightly amused, said, ¡°Since it¡¯s hard to refuse such kindness, let¡¯s go.¡± These deep-rooted organizations that had many secrets were one of Link¡¯s targets. He wanted to see what they were up to. After all, even a Stage Six monster¡ªwhich was transformed from a Semi-Sage¡¯s spiritual imprint¡ªwas suppressed by Link. There weren¡¯t many who could threaten him. Thus, Link appeared very calm and confident at this moment. Wu Hao and Tian Mingyuan also nodded, and their expressions eased. They hadn¡¯t even seen the ruins, so it would be unwise to break out into a conflict with each other directly. Even if they were going to do anything, they had to understand the situation at the Forest of Darkness first before deciding what to do. The people from the Temple of Light followed behind Link and the others and walked into the forest. Seeing that the original stalemate was instantly dissolved by Link¡¯s words, Jiang Wencheng and Zhu Changfeng couldn¡¯t help but look at Link again, feeling slightly surprised. This team should¡¯ve been led by the two Stage Five powerhouses, but this young man seemed to carry a lot of weight among them. But after sensing that Link was only Stage Four from his aura, the two immediately put their doubts behind them. A mere Stage Four [Doomsday Online] yer wasn¡¯t sufficient to pose a threat to them. Even though this person¡¯s identity was somewhat special, the two didn¡¯t care at all. So what if he had killed a Stage Six monster? During such times, strength was the most important thing. Moreover, their background wasn¡¯t to be underestimated. What Jiang Wencheng and Zhu Changfeng didn¡¯t expect was the real reason why Link carried a lot of weight among his team. It wasn¡¯t because of his special identity; rather, Link had won the respect of the Temple of Light¡¯s people with his strength during their previous cooperation. Under the lead of Jiang Wencheng and the others, Link and the rest soon entered a camp. Link and the others didn¡¯t see the [Doomsday Online] yers thatid in all directions in the pit¡ªwhich had mysterious lines and images drawn on it¡ªat the bottom. Jiang Wencheng and the others weren¡¯t fools. They naturally wouldn¡¯t expose it to outsiders so quickly. And not far from the camp was an ancient stone monument, with many obscure and mysterious runes carved on it. A vicissitudinous and grand aura rippled out from the stone monument, making it seem like a tombstone that had existed since before eternity. In the center of the stone monument was a ck hole¡ªit seemed like something had to be put there to actually open the ruins. Link looked at the boundary marker; his expression was indifferent, and he remained calm. The [Key of Relic]¡ªwhich could open the ruins¡ªwas in his personal backpack at this moment. A young man beside Jiang Wencheng pointed at the stone monument and said, ¡°Everyone, this is the ruins¡¯ boundary monument. However, we cannot enter the ruins because we don¡¯t have the key.¡± This young man was also a member of Ancient Martial Alliance. His name was Zhao Qinghe; his rank was Stage Four, Level 7, and he was rather powerful. After those words fell, Zhao Qinghe scanned Link and the others, smiled, and said, ¡°But this is only temporary... As long as everyone is willing to cooperate, I believe that we will soon be able to open the entrance and divide the ruins.¡± ¡°Oh, cooperate? What do you need us to do?¡± Tian Mingyuan narrowed his eyes and spoke slowly. Zhu Changfeng¡ªwho was beside Zhao Qinghe¡ªsaid, ¡°A few of you should be aware that, if one wishes to open the ruins without the [Key of Relic], one can only forcefully break through the boundary guarding the ruins.¡± ¡°We have an item named [Boundary Breaking Talisman], which can forcibly break open the ruins¡¯ boundary. But the conditions for using this item are somewhat harsh; it requires a lot of strength to activate it.¡± As he spoke, Zhu Changfeng took out a silver talisman. This talisman was clearly not low-grade, and it was exceedingly extraordinary. The surface was glowing, and mysterious symbols appeared in the air when it was taken out! ¡°How about we inject power into this talisman together and open the ruins?¡± Zhu Changfeng said with a smile. At the same time, Jiang Wencheng signaled a few subordinates to bring over a few crystals to hand over to Link and the others. ¡°Everyone just needs to inject their power into the crystals. When we have enough power, we will be able to activate the [Boundary Breaking Talisman]. I guarantee upon the Ancient Martial Alliance¡¯s credibility that we will let everyone enter the ruins together.¡± Link couldn¡¯t bear it anymore. These two big factions¡¯ acts were truly a bit clumsy. Moreover, after entering the camp, Link had been somewhat informed of these factions¡¯ strength. In addition to the Stage Five powerhouses in front of them, he could sense several surging auras in the camp. Star-rank powerhouses were apparently hiding within. But just a few Star-rank powerhouses weren¡¯t enough to threaten Link. Hence, he immediately decided that he would stop pretending and would show his cards. Looking at the white crystal-like crystals in his hands, Linkughed, amused. He waved his hands, and the crystals instantly became a ball of powder. Link casually scattered the white powder into the air, which then fell from the sky. This scene was clearly out of Jiang Wencheng and Zhu Changfeng¡¯s expectations. They never expected Link to do something like that, and their eyes twitched vigorously. ¡°What are you doing? It¡¯s not easy to forge such crystals that can hold power!¡± After a brief moment of shock, Zhu Changfeng¡¯s face sank. He coldly red at Link, who had crushed the crystals. Jiang Wencheng¡¯s expression changed as well. He was already burning inside, and he finally exploded at this moment. He sneered. ¡°Friend, are you looking down on our Ancient Martial Alliance?!¡± Swords were instantly drawn, and the atmosphere was tense. Jiang Wencheng¡¯s robe fluttered without the presence of wind. The terrifying pressure emitted by a Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse rushing toward Link like a vast river. Seeing this, Tian Mingyuan and the others stopped pretending and threw away the crystals in their hands. Holy Son Ou Chen even stepped forward and stood in front of Link with his Stage Five aura to fight against Jiang Wencheng! ¡°You people are up to no good! You are probably waiting for us to inject our power into the crystals and attack us while we¡¯re weak!¡± Chapter 169: Soul Summoning Bell! Counter!

Chapter 169: Soul Summoning Bell! Counter!

Hearing Ou Chen¡¯s words, Jiang Wencheng and Zhu Changfeng¡¯s eyes flickered, but they didn¡¯t rush to refute him. In their opinion, Link and the others¡ªwho had entered the camp¡ªwere already fish on the chopping board. They had no choice but to be ughtered by them. They no longer needed to make up a story, and they had no need to refute anything. Jiang Wencheng scrutinized Ou Chen, looking at him up and down, and said with a smile, ¡°Yes, it seems like you knew of our n.¡± ¡°Let me think about it; when did we slip up?¡± Jiang Wencheng muttered to himself, turning his head to ask a subordinate. ¡°Are all the teams I sent back?¡± The young man named Zhao Qinghe thought for a while and then shook his head. He said respectfully, ¡°The vast majority of the teams have returned. Only one team from Quicksand City hasn¡¯t returned. They were sent to Unfallen City.¡± Jiang Wencheng¡¯s eyes glinted. ¡°Oh, my team was intercepted by you then? No wonder.¡± Jiang Wencheng took a step forward and stared at Ou Chen. ¡°How dare you intercept and kill the people from Ancient Martial Alliance? You are bold!¡± With those cold words, Jiang Wencheng¡¯s warm smile had long since disappeared. What was left was heart-palpitating killing intent! Jiang Wencheng¡¯s gaze was piercing as he scanned Link and the others. His eyes were full of unconcealed coldness as if the people in front of him were already corpses. Wu Hao stood beside Ou Chen, and a sword suddenly appeared in his hand. The de¡¯s cold light gleamed in the sun; it was obviously a powerful piece of equipment! Wu Hao didn¡¯t say anything and merely remained silent. His pair of tiger eyes narrowed slightly, and the muscles under his clothes tensed. He was like a wild beast that was about to attack at any time! Both sides had dropped all pretenses, and he was ready to fight! In fact, whether it was Ou Chen or Wu Hao, as Stage Five star-rank powerhouses, both had already stood out in front of everyone. They wanted to protect everyone with their own strength. The auras of Stage Five Star-rank powerhouses swirled, bringing up the dust on the ground! Two Stage Five powerhouses were a force that couldn¡¯t be underestimated! But Jiang Wencheng and Zhu Changfeng still looked confident and unafraid. It was as though they were sure they would defeat Ou Chen and the others. Jiang Wencheng sneered and said, ¡°Two Star-rank powerhouses? Not bad, it seems that you have some power. However, no matter how powerful you are, you¡¯re still in trouble today! Do you think we only prepared a few stones to store magic power?¡± Before he finished speaking, Zhu Changfeng was alreadyughing evilly. Hisughter was full of mockery. The people from the Temple of Light shuddered, and their expressions instantly became tense. Even Wu Hao and Ou Chen¡ªboth Stage Five powerhouses¡ªhad serious expressions on their faces. What other plot does the other party have? This question shed in their minds, but the staff in Zhu Changfeng¡¯s hand had already abruptly hit the ground before they could get an answer. The bell hanging on the staff rang suddenly! ng! ng! ng! The ringing sound was faint and strange. It seemed toe from the sky, but it also seemed to ring in everyone¡¯s ears! Suddenly, strange circr ripples rippled from the bell and swept toward Ou Chen and the others! Tian Mingyuan and the other powerhouses from the Temple of Light suddenly turned pale! As the bell rang, something in their minds seemed to be suddenly aroused! Not only did their heads hurt like needles were sticking into them, but even their consciousness was gradually dissipating. They felt as if they were about to lose control of their bodies! As the Temple of Light¡¯s Stage Five powerhouses, Wu Hao and Ou Chen had higher resistance than Tian Mingyuan and the others. However, they also were having a hard time. ¡°There¡¯s something wrong with the ringing! Seal your hearing!¡± Wu Hao roared and smacked his ears with his hands. With a sliver of power, he shattered his eardrums! By doing this, hepletely isted himself from that strange ringing¡¯s influence. Wu Hao then jumped out like a ferocious beast. The ground shattered under his feet, and cracks spread out like a spider web. The saber tore through the air, causing a sonic boom! ¡°Glorious sh!¡± Wu Hao roared, apparently having activated his skill! A dazzling glow shot out from the longsword in his hand. It became more and more astonishing as if it were going to shear the mountain and cut the Hengjiang river! And his target was Zhu Changfeng from the Evil Sect! Faced with this fierce offense, both Zhu Changfeng and Jiang Wencheng¡¯s faces shed with surprise. However, they quickly regained theirposure. Zhu Changfeng didn¡¯t even move at all. He just looked at Wu Hao in amusement¡ªwho was hurtling toward him! Zhu Changfeng¡¯s wrist shook fiercely, and the ringing sound became more rapid, sounding like the howling of a thousand ghosts! Wu Hao¡¯s figure suddenly stopped in the air. A bloody mist gushed out of his mouth, and his body heavily fell to the ground as if he had been hit hard! Zhu Changfeng looked at Wu Hao¡ªwho was lying in front of him¡ªwith a cruel smile on his face, appearing like a cat toying with a mouse. ¡°You¡¯re so cruel and decisive. You shattered your eardrums just to avoid the ringing. It¡¯s a pity that this ringing is not just a sound wave but also a mental shock. Shattering your eardrums will not help!¡± In fact, while heading deeper into the Forest of Darkness, Zhu Changfeng had already been exerting his control on Link and the others. The ringing sound caused by movement wasn¡¯t noticeable at all, but it was carefully nned by him! Every ring of the bell was like an imprint that hid in people¡¯s minds. For the time being, they stayed hidden butid in wait quietly, waiting for the moment when the killing intent appeared! The moment Wu Hao threw himself out, he realized that the bell still rang in his mind. He was unable to stop it. However, he could only do his best to use his skills to kill Zhu Changfeng. But as Wu Hao approached the sound source, his skills were interrupted, and he even suffered bacsh! All of this happened in an instant. Everyone¡¯s hearts sank; a wave of cold surged into their chests, and they felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave! ¡°Elder Wu!¡± The Temple of Light¡¯s Holy Son¡ªOu Chen¡¯s eyes suddenly turned red. Although he sometimes hated the Elders¡¯ control, he had feelings for them. Upon seeing Elder Wu vomiting blood and falling to the ground, Ou Chen felt as if he had taken a fierce stab to the heart at this moment! ¡°Enjoy the despair, everyone. Rest assured, we will not kill you. Your lives are precious; you still have to open the entrance to the ruins!¡± Jiang Wencheng sneered. But he and Zhu Changfeng were soon unable to continueughing. Instead, they stood there dumbfounded. This was because the scene before them was beyond their expectations. They saw Link calmly walking toward them as if he werepletely unaffected by the ringing! Moreover, the morous woman behind Link was calm as well! In an instant, the [King¡¯s Sword] appeared in Link¡¯s hands! Chapter 170: Ringing Immunity! Monster!

Chapter 170: Ringing Immunity! Monster!

The surface of the icy longsword pulsated with a cold light, and indescribable dominance and majesty rippled from Link¡¯s body! Link no longer hid; the aura emitting from him still hadn¡¯t reached Stage Five, but everything seemed to be different from just a few seconds ago! His white robe fluttered, giving off an otherworldly appearance. His slender body stood proudly like a long spear directly pointing at the space toward the sky; he looked as though he wanted topete with heaven itself! This was the viciousness and aloofness of the Asura Summoner, which resulted from wandering the wilderness alone in his previous life! This terrifying aura was condensed by killing countless monsters and enemies! Viciousness, murderous intent, majesty, aloofness, and arrogance¡ªall kinds of aura had fused into one, condensing into an aura that uniquely belonged to Link! Link walked forward slowly, but this single action brought Zhu Changfeng and Jiang Wencheng a great sense of oppression and danger! At this moment, the hair on their backs stood up as if a terrifying beast was staring at them! They were like deer encountering a tiger¡ªthe fish or shrimp encountering the dragon! But even they themselves didn¡¯t know why they would feel this way about a Stage Four [Doomsday Online] yer! Zhu Changfeng¡¯s face was full of shock. The cruel smile on his face hadn¡¯tpletely receded. And now, this smile was frozen on his face, looking quiteical... Jiang Wencheng stared at Link, stunned. His eyes widened slightly as if he were looking at a monster. The several Stage Four powerhouses¡ªwho followed behind them¡ªeven felt a sense of suffocation. Link¡¯s aura instilled a sense of fear in them, causing their hearts to shrink fiercely! What the heck! Why isn¡¯t this kid and that morous woman ying their cards ording tomon sense?! This wasn¡¯t the first time they had seen Zhu Changfeng use this mental shock attack, but it was the first time that someone wasn¡¯t affected at all! ¡°What the hell is going on? Why aren¡¯t they affected?¡± Jiang Wencheng nced at Zhu Changfeng, eager to get an exnation. However, Zhu Changfeng was also full of question marks at this time! He really wanted to reply: You are asking me? Damn it, I myself want to know the reason too! This made no sense! He had clearly nted spiritual imprints on these people on the way here, and the arrangement he had just activated was [Soul Summoning Bell], which even Stage Five Star-rank powerhouses couldn¡¯t resist! But upon seeing this pair of man and woman acting so indifferent, how could they not be surprised? What¡¯s more, not only was Zhu Changfeng astonished, but he was also at a slight loss of what to do now! The sight before them was just too weird! At this moment, everyone from the Temple of Light was also a little confused and stunned. Of course, there were three weaker members who had lost consciousness and fainted on the ground. They didn¡¯t even see the scene of Link walking out. Only a few people like Tian Mingyuan and Ou Chen¡ªwho were still clenching their teeth and persevering¡ªmanaged to witness all of this! A huge boulder seemed to be thrown down into theke of their hearts, setting off a huge tsunami! Tian Mingyuan felt that his thinking couldn¡¯t catch up with the facts. What¡¯s happening? Link wasn¡¯t affected? Could it be that this is his trump card?! Ou Chen¡ªwho thought that his strength had surpassed Link and that he finally had a chance to protect Link and the others¡ªfelt even moreplicated emotions in his heart. Link¡¯s back view was reflected in his eyes; it was extremely solid and tall like an unattainable mountain, looking more and more unfathomable! But even though they were shocked, Jiang Wencheng and the others didn¡¯t stop. Instead, they quickly recovered. ¡°Although I don¡¯t know what means they used to stay awake, just the two of them... aren¡¯t enough to escape from my palm...¡± In order to save his dignity, Zhu Changfeng said this quickly, but he didn¡¯t seem to have very much confidence. Zhu Changfeng¡¯s arms shook again, and the bell hanging from the staff shook more violently. A gray mist even appeared on the surface of the bell. This made it look as though thumb-sized human faces seemed to be emerging from the mist, wailing tragically... The ringing was like a scream, eerie and sharp! Even Ou Chen couldn¡¯t hold on any longer. His eyes went dark, and he fell to the ground, only barely managing to stay conscious. But Link and Luo Haoyue still looked calm as ever. Mental shock attacks were indeed hard to guard against and hard to avoid, especially Zhu Changfeng¡¯s method of using bell ringing as a means to imprint people and then detonating them instantly. But for the two of them... Link had the [Fearless] passive, allowing him to resist most mental attacks. The other, Luo Haoyue, was the God of Evil¡¯s heir. Thus, her mental resistance was far beyond that of ordinary yers. Her own existence was enough to make people crazy, so she didn¡¯t fear a mere mental shock at all! Upon seeing the two of them remain unmoved, Zhu Changfeng¡¯s face became even uglier! [Soul Summoning Bell] was his most practiced skill; each time he used this skill, it always worked. But now, Link¡¯s reaction caused him to receive 10,000 points of critical damage! Even his face seemed to hurt a bit as if he were pped several times on both sides. However, Link obviously didn¡¯t intend to let Zhu Changfeng ring the bell any longer. Sharp sword energy rippled out from the [King¡¯s Sword] in his hand! Fierce sword intent rose to the sky and broke apart the clouds in the sky! The [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique] wasunched! Rays of sword light engulfed the surging sword energy and pped toward Zhu Changfeng like a tide! The sword light and sword energy hadn¡¯t arrived yet, but Zhu Changfeng had already felt a sharpness that pierced his skin! His heart instantly shuddered. This young man is obviously only Stage Four, but this attack¡¯s intensity is almostparable to, or even surpassing, a Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse! Zhu Changfeng couldn¡¯t care about continuing to cast [Soul Summoning Bell]. He quickly drew out a talisman from his sleeve. The talisman ignited in the wind and burst into bright golden light! In an instant, a huge golden barrier was formed, protecting Zhu Changfeng within it! Boom! A huge explosion sounded! The huge barrier blocked this fierce attack, but it also copsed and dissipated under the sword light. The talisman that Zhu Changfeng took out turned into ashes, and he couldn¡¯t help feeling a little heart pain. It should be noted that this talisman was an item made by a high-level Craftsman in Evil Sect. It should be able to resist attacks for up to one minute, but its entire energy reserve was depleted after blocking one attack from Link. This kind of protective talisman was quite rare. Even he¡ªan Elder of Evil Sect¡ªalso didn¡¯t have many! ¡°Damn it!¡± Zhu Changfeng gritted his teeth and said, ¡°Sect Master Jiang, what are you waiting for? Let¡¯s kill this person together!¡± Ancient Martial Alliance¡¯s highest leader was called Alliance Master. Most of the sect¡¯s members called themselves disciples, and for people like Jiang Wencheng¡ªa Star-rank powerhouse with a certain status¡ªthey were called Sect Masters. Jiang Wencheng originally nned to let this weird kid consume Zhu Changfeng¡¯s energy as much as possible. After all, they were only in a superficial alliance. They actually had their own thoughts and ns. But since Zhu Changfeng had already called out to him, he wouldn¡¯t be able to justify his actions if he still didn¡¯t help out. The next moment, Jiang Wencheng¡¯s figure flew out like an eagle falcon, and he pped at Link¡¯s face with his palm! The air was directlypressed and exploded by this palm, causing a vacuum to form. There was even an awe-inspiring aura in the whistling wind! Before the apocalypse, as the heir of ancient martial arts, Jiang Wencheng practiced the Swimming Eight Trigram Palm. His awakened profession in the apocalypse was also rted to this. With this palm, it was like a mountain was pressing down on Link, and the sense of this palm¡¯s power was overwhelming! If this palmnded, even the heads of Stage Four, Level 10 powerhouses would explode like rotten watermelons! Chapter 171: The Hanged Man! Child of Heaven Kneels!

Chapter 171: The Hanged Man! Child of Heaven Kneels!

Jiang Wencheng struck fiercely, and the subordinates¡ªwho followed him¡ªall showed excited smiles. In their opinion, although this kid in front of them was quite weird, he was only a Stage Four yer after all. Even if he was stronger than them, there should still be a limit to his strength, and he definitely wouldn¡¯t be able to resist a Star-rank powerhouse¡¯s attack! Link¡¯s hair was sent flying when the palm wind hit, but there wasn¡¯t the slightest hint of panic on his face. His eyes were still as in as water, without the slightest ripple. Facing those unusually calm eyes, Jiang Wencheng felt an inexplicable chill... Could it be that this person still has a trump card left? His thoughts shed past, but Jiang Wencheng added a bit more strength to his palm instead, intent on killing Link with this attack! Only amusement was left in Link¡¯s heart at this moment. The other party didn¡¯t even use his domain, which was truly being overconfident when in front of him. Link wasn¡¯t an ordinary Stage Four powerhouse. I really am being underestimated? Link instantly triggered [Pseudo?Hanged Man]¡¯s skill. [Hanged Man?Upright] activated! Link could use a medium (the target¡¯s hair, blood, etc.) toplete the ritual. After that, he could transfer the damage he suffered to the target! As for the medium... Link had already obtained it, which was Jiang Wencheng¡¯s hair! Knowing that Jiang Wencheng and the others were going to harm them, Link had naturally prepared himself. On the way, Zhu Changfeng took the opportunity to influence Link and the others. At the same time, Link also obtained a strand of hair from Zhu Changfeng and Jiang Wencheng without leaving a trace. Of course, Link didn¡¯t bother to collect mediums of their subordinates. Stage Four yers¡ªwho could be crushed to death at will¡ªweren¡¯t worth his attention. Only Stage Five Star-rank powerhouses could be worthy of entering Link¡¯s eyes. A sonic boom sounded, but Link didn¡¯t move at all. In Zhu Changfeng and the others¡¯ eyes, it seemed like Link had be dumb from shock. But the sight of an exploding head¡ªwhich they had anticipated¡ªdidn¡¯t appear. Instead, it was the aggressive Jiang Wencheng whose face instantly turned red. It then turned into a crimson-purple! As if someone had hit him hard on the top of his head, Jiang Wencheng¡¯s flowing ck hair exploded. His eyes suddenly turned ck, and his figure plummeted onto the ground! After all, Jiang Wencheng was an heir of ancient martial arts. Fighting had be muscle memory to him, so his body instinctively started to transfer the attack¡¯s energy away. Boom! The ground under his feet was directly crushed by him, and he ended up kneeling on the ground. He smashed onto the ground heavily, almost falling down entirely! The power of this palm really wasn¡¯t little, but it was a pity that Jiang Wencheng shot himself in the foot! Jiang Wencheng spat out blood and saw gold stars in front of him! Lucky for him, he was already quite powerful, and he had been on alert at all times to guard against Link¡¯s possible counter-attack. Therefore, he was able to resist in time, transferring the attack¡¯s energy away as best he could. If not, his palm attack might¡¯ve pressed his own head into his chest! Even so, Jiang Wencheng was still heavily injured. His brain was like a paste; Jiang Wencheng felt like he was about to fall unconscious! And the other people watching the battle were even more bewildered¡ªall of them were stunned! They didn¡¯t even see Link make a move; they only saw Jiang Wencheng strike with his palm, and then... Then, Jiang Wencheng himself kneeled! Zhu Changfeng and the others almost cursed. This really is too weird, isn¡¯t it? What the hell?! It¡¯s fine if he attacked as he wished, but why did he kneel down? Did he suddenly realize that they are family or something? The crucial point was¡ªthis kid is so young! It¡¯s impossible for him to have a child as old as Jiang Wencheng! Zhu Changfeng even had a faint suspicion that Jiang Wenchengmunicated with this kid beforehand. They are just acting in front of me now, right? But at this moment, Jiang Wencheng¡¯s mouthful of blood and chaotic breath couldn¡¯t be faked. Everyone could only ept the facts in front of them. At this instant, their eyes¡ªwhich were looking at Link¡ªchanged. If it could be said that they were surprised Link could resist the mental shock just now, then it could now be said that they were faintly fearful of Link! After all, his method of attack was really incredible! Standing behind Link, Luo Haoyue had a thoughtful look as she spoke with emotion. ¡°Lord Envoy, this is the so-called ¡®defeating others without fighting,¡¯ right?¡± After being transformed into the God of Evil¡¯s heir, Luo Haoyue had lost many memories. In order for her to integrate into human society as soon as possible¡ªor to prevent her from causing harm to the people in Unfallen City at least¡ªLink asked her to read more books. Right now, it could be regarded as Luo Haoyue applying what she had learned. Upon hearing Luo Haoyue¡¯s words, Zhu Changfeng and the others felt more and moreplicated emotions... What the hell? Is the phrase ¡®defeating people without fighting¡¯ referring to a situation like this? As for Jiang Wencheng¡ªwho was kneeling on the ground and barely maintaining his sanity¡ªhis heart almost stopped functioning upon hearing this. He also almost spewed out a big mouthful of blood again! Link ignored Zhu Changfeng and his group¡¯s crazily changing faces, and he just stepped on Jiang Wencheng¡¯s chest. Jiang Wencheng¡ªwho was already on his knees¡ªwas directly pushed onto the ground under his feet. He could no longer restrain the blood surging inside his body and spewed out arge mouthful of blood. He then directly passed out and entered aa. Link didn¡¯t continue to act against Jiang Wencheng, who hadpletely lost hisbat effectiveness. It wasn¡¯t that he took pity on Jiang Wencheng, but rather, Link still had use for him. Jiang Wencheng could now be considered a bargaining chip in his hand. Link slowly raised the sword¡¯s tip and pointed it at Zhu Changfeng. Zhu Changfeng instantly trembled, almost throwing out the staff in his hand. He was still preparing a magic technique just now, intending to unexpectedly throw it out when Jiang Wencheng and Link were fighting. But who would have thought that the battle would end so soon; his spellcasting immediately stopped... Looking at the indifferent young man, Zhu Changfeng felt a little fearful in his heart. After all, the opponent¡¯s ability was really weird. Even after this battle, he didn¡¯t obtain any useful information. He was really afraid that the kid would also give him that weird defeat without actually fighting. Zhu Changfeng¡¯s throat squirmed, and he swallowed with difficulty. However, he still pretended to be calm and said, ¡°You must not be arrogant, young man! You have already attracted public anger, and the three major forces definitely will not let you off!¡± ¡°Really?¡± Link smiled indifferently and said, ¡°Stop pretending; you have already urgently contacted the other Stage Five powerhouses in the camp, right?¡± Zhu Changfeng¡¯splexion suddenly stiffened. Indeed, after discovering that the young man in front of him might pose a huge threat, he had reached inside his shirt and smashed themunication talisman in his pocket. Evil Sect¡¯s hidden powerhouses woulde soon. In fact, Zhu Changfeng believed that, other than Evil Sect, the Star-rank powerhouses of Ancient Martial Alliance and Martial God Hall would be unable to sit still as well! And this was the result that Link wanted. The three major forces¡¯ members here were one of his goals in the first ce! Zhu Changfeng said, ¡°That¡¯s right! The three major forces¡¯ elites are gathered here. Just talking about Stage Five powerhouses, there are at least five or six of them here. You guys definitely won¡¯t be able to escape!¡± ¡°If you are smart enough, you¡¯d better be obedient and let yourself be caught so that you won¡¯t need to sufferter!¡± At this time, a series of powerful auras suddenly rose up from the camp! Those Stage Five powerhouses¡ªwho were originally hidden or previously hadn¡¯t paid attention to the situation here¡ªall moved! Chapter 172: Suppress the Enemy in the Flip of a Hand! Blood Eyes!

Chapter 172: Suppress the Enemy in the Flip of a Hand! Blood Eyes!

Sensing the majestic auras rushing toward this spot rapidly, the confidence in Zhu Changfeng¡¯s heart suddenly increased by quite a bit. His expression quickly turned calm again, with wisps of obscure light blooming from his staff. It should be the young man in front of me that should worry about his own safety now! What Zhu Changfeng had to do was not let this person escape. Once the other powerhouses arrived, they would encircle and kill him! Link was well aware of what Zhu Changfeng was thinking and just smiled. Exerting strength with his foot, he stepped on Jiang Wencheng¡¯s chest again. Pu! A dull voice sounded, and sand and debris sttered! Jiang Wencheng¡¯s body had been embedded into the ground, and even a low-stage [Doomsday Online] yer might not be able to dig him out... ¡°Watch over this person properly,¡± Link said lightly to Luo Haoyue. The longsword in his hand was then swung again, and the biting sword light once again tore through space, making a sharp explosive sound! Zhu Changfeng¡¯s staff also suddenly waved. The trash talk just now was to bid time to channel this skill. In an instant, gray streamers burst out from the bell, and a gloomy aura swept through the ce immediately! The domain¡ªwhich uniquely belonged to Zhu Changfeng¡ªalso spread quickly! Amidst the bell¡¯s howl-like ringing, the gray mist quickly spread through the area, obscuring everyone¡¯s sight as it rendered this ce into a ghost-like domain! [Ghost Mist] was the name Zhu Changfeng gave to his domain. Those caught in his domain would be affected by the gray mist. Not only would their vision be blocked, but the ghost mist would also constantly attack them. This kind of attack didn¡¯t only affect the body but also the spirit. If his enemies stayed in the ghost mist for a long time, they wouldpletely lose their sanity. All of their flesh and blood would also be fertilizer for nourishing the ghost mist! Zhu Changfeng and Jiang Wencheng¡¯s subordinates all felt a chill in their hearts, and the feeling of danger on their backs made all their hair stand up! They instinctively feared the mist! The gray streamers converged in the mist, forming clusters of aggregates. These were three evil ghost skulls, each measuring nearly two meters in length! The huge evil ghost skulls wereposed of dense thumb-sized human faces. What¡¯s more, each face was different, and they were all wailing in pain! After all, Zhu Changfeng was a Stage Five powerhouse from the Evil Sect. He was a child of heaven-like character that countless yers needed to look up to. When he went all out, his power couldn¡¯t be underestimated! Just at this moment. The three evil ghost skulls and the ghost mist domain had appeared only for a short moment, and the sword light that Link had created also arrived! Chi Chi! The sword light struck one of the skulls, cutting through it like a hot knife cutting butter. After that, the shed skull instantly started to emit ck smoke non-stop! Two skulls were torn apart by the sword light in quick session, and the surging gray mist then consumed the sword light¡¯s remaining energy. Thest evil spirit¡¯s skull didn¡¯t even attack Link but pounced on Wu Hao¡ªwho was lying on the ground¡ªinstead. Compared to Link, Wu Hao was obviously an easier target! And this was where Zhu Changfeng¡¯s shrewdness lied; he wasn¡¯t a reckless man. The [Ring of Teleportation] on Link¡¯s finger faintly shed with silver light, and his figure suddenly disappeared in ce. When he reappeared, Link had already appeared in front of Wu Hao. The skull of the evil spirit that pounced here was then shattered by a casual swing of the sword. But at this moment, Link was also deeply trapped within Zhu Changfeng¡¯s domain. He was surrounded by a thick gray mist that couldn¡¯t be dispersed, and he could no longer see Zhu Changfeng¡¯s figure. Only the sharp ringing in his ears reminded Link that the other party was still there. But even the bell¡¯s ringing was extremely subtle, sounding as if it came from all directions. This made it impossible for a person to find the bell¡¯s exact location by listening to the sound. Link had also felt the domain¡¯s influence acting on him. The gray mist was constantly invading his body in small portions. His hands and feet gradually became cold and numb, and it was foreseeable that he would fall into a dilemma where he would be at the mercy of others if he couldn¡¯t break out of the domain quickly. Link had Zhu Changfeng¡¯s hair in his hand, but he didn¡¯t activate the Hanged Man card¡¯s skills immediately. Although the Hanged Man card¡¯s abilities were unbelievably powerful, continuously using them within a short time would consume more and more energy from him, especially when it came to the gray mist¡¯s continuous damage. Even with Link¡¯s mental strength¡ªwhich far surpassed that of those in the same stage¡ªhe would also be overwhelmed if he endured it for a long period of time. But he was obviously not someone who could be easily restrained by just one domain. Link had already killed a lot of opponents that possessed domains. Link took out a demon eyeball covered with dark-red bloodshot eyes from his individual backpack. It was the aberrated item that he obtained from Jiang Cheng and blessed¡ª[Tainted Demon Eye]. The [Tainted Blood Pupil] skill was activated in an instant! Suddenly, a cold wind seemed to be blowing from behind the necks of Evil Sect¡¯s and Ancient Martial Alliance¡¯s members. This was a powerful AoE skill, and even Zhu Changfeng¡ªwho was hiding in the ghost mist¡ªalso felt this wind. And this was far from over; they also felt a sense of being peeped at! It was as if some kind of extremely terrifying and evil thing was watching them, making them be uncontrobly nervous. Their hearts had risen to their throats! Even faint sphemous murmurs started to sound in their ears, arousing the most primitive fear in their hearts! But when they abruptly turned their heads back, they couldn¡¯t find the peeper at all. They could only see a huge scarlet eyeball at the corner of their eyes... No matter how they turned their heads, that huge and evil eyeball was always in a position that could be glimpsed from the corner of their eyes. There wasn¡¯t the slightest difference in distance, and there were no other changes at all... A terrified scream suddenly sounded, and a Stage Four yer with low mental strength even peed on the spot! This was the first time that this group of Evil Sect and Ancient Martial Alliance members had encountered such a strange scene. The pollution and madness contained in the aberrated equipment were difficult for them to resist, and some of the yers¡¯ eyes even started to lose focus as they murmured along with the sound in their ears. Squirming bulges appeared on their bodies as if something was about to break out from their skin! Even Zhu Changfeng¡ªwho was proficient in mental attacks¡ªwas also trapped in fear at this moment, and his body was forcefully stiffened! Thus, his domain¡¯s effects instantly weakened, and the gray mist became thinner and thinner... Link passed through the thin mist indifferently and walked up to Zhu Changfeng. But before he could make a move, Zhu Changfeng¡ªwho had finally recovered from his stiffness¡ªturned his head toward Link. He had an exceedingly horrified expression as if he had seen something extremely terrifying! Shuddering, Zhu Changfeng discarded his staff, tightly covered his face with his hands, and actually dropped to the ground! Defeating the enemy without fighting x2. ¡°...¡± Link didn¡¯t expect that the aberrated equipment, [Tainted Demon Eye], would be so effective. Obviously, this result was probably because these people had just encountered this kind of attack for the first time. The effects of the first experience were often more profound. Even a Stage Five Mage like Zhu Changfeng couldn¡¯t resist the corrosion of fear and madness! Chapter 173: Carried to a Win? Powerhouses Come Forth Together!

Chapter 173: Carried to a Win? Powerhouses Come Forth Together!

Link wasn¡¯t civil either; hended a kick on Zhu Changfeng¡¯s body. Zhu Changfeng had a Mage profession after all. His mental strength was considerably higher than that of Fighter yers, so he would probably break out of that state in a while. This Evil Sect elder was like a sandbag; he flew several meters away with a kick from Link... Zhu Changfeng¡¯s body was still a good deal weaker than that of Jiang Wencheng; otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t have prepared those protective talismans. Link¡¯s attributes were higher to begin with. As the kicknded, Zhu Changfeng let out a piteous shriek and directly cked out, bingpletely unconscious. This battle was very... brief. So much so that Zhu Changfeng didn¡¯t even hang on till the multiple dominant auras¡¯ arrival. Up till now, Link had yet to go all out. Even Yuna and God Devourer Ant hadn¡¯t been summoned to fight. It could be said that Link was merely warming up before exploring the historical ruin. A Star-rank powerhouse of the Evil Sect, an existence that countless people looked up to... When put before Link, they weren¡¯t even qualified to have Link strike with his best! It was just like how Zhu Changfeng, Jiang Wencheng, and the others brought Link to the campsite and then orderly presented their heads. It was difficult to estimate how great the psychological trauma that these two Star-rank powerhouses had suffered. Of course, Link didn¡¯t really kill them. It wasn¡¯t because he was being merciful; having lived two lifetimes as a human, Link was never soft-hearted. He simply still had some use for them. After that, Link sat on a wooden stool, silently waiting for the three major factions¡¯ powerhouses to arrive. Luo Haoyue easily took care of the remaining group of Evil Sect and Ancient Martial Alliance Stage Four yers, not requiring Link to act. Those with weak willpower and had aberrated due to their inability to resist the pollution were dragged into the abyss-like shadows by the distorted spider shadows. Whereas the remaining people were wrapped into balls using the firm spider silk, only leaving their heads exposed. They were then neatly piled up. Presently, Ou Chen, the Temple of Light members, Xue Linglong, and the others had gradually broken away from the mental impact¡¯s influence and sobered up. Among them, as his capabilities had reached Stage Five Star-rank, Ou Chen had recovered the fastest. He had more or less spectated the entire battle. Right now, Ou Chen was looking at those captives¡ªwho had been piled together neatly. The corner of his lips couldn¡¯t stop twitching... Goodd! Even a chatterbox like him was actually speechless now... This was truly because the impact that Link gave him was too great! Originally, Ou Chen had thought that he and hispany were doomed. Even if he were to expose all of his trump cards, they would have to go through a painful fight before he could barely cover the minority as they escape.d But when Link came forward, everything before his eyes changed instantly... So much so that Ou Chen was still in disbelief; he just found it absurd! Those were Stage Five Star-rank powerhouses, children of heaven that had started the climb to the stage of sanctification! Ou Chen had never heard of a Stage Four powerhouse being able to defeat two Stage Five powerhouses. He had then witnessed Linkpletely thrashing Star-rank powerhouses today... And he just needed to lie on the ground... These people were easily suppressed by Link, and they had almost no way of fighting back. It could be said that this experience had refreshed Ou Chen¡¯s values and outlook! Link is ultimately still the older brother! He is virtually... brutal! After regaining consciousness, the others were also at a loss about what to do about the scene before them. Of course, they mainly felt confused and puzzled by the pile of well-arranged captives. Our side had been set up; how did we just win all of a sudden? Xue Linglong and the others were slightly better. Their psychological endurance had been steeled by Link and had be very strong. It could be said that almost everyone was cool in the face of danger. Upon seeing the sight before them, they quietly moved to stand behind Link, awaiting their City Master¡¯s orders. Meanwhile, a considerable number of Temple of Light memberscked this calm. Everyone stared at one another. There were Priest yers¡ªwho used healing spells for the masses; then, they quickly questioned one another about what had happened. ¡°Why have all these people been bundled into balls?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know!¡± ¡°Did His Highness save us?¡± ¡°His Highness is indeed powerful after advancing to Stage Five! He is truly reputed to be the man who is qualified to attain sanctification in my Temple of Light!¡± ... The Temple of Light members spected as they directed their gazes toward Ou Chen in undesigned agreement. Ou Chen was currently watching the pile of captives with mixed feelings, and that somewhat deste, ¡®did-not-manage-to-help¡¯ back view appeared to be tall and lonely in the eyes of the Temple of Light¡¯s people. ¡°The Holy Son is so powerful; is he feeling sad for the enemies? It is indeed the woe of those people to be born in the same generation as the Holy Son!¡± said a Temple of Light member. Somebody retorted, ¡°No, the Holy Son is feeling lonely¡ªthe loneliness of being too high up!¡± Ou Chen: ¡°...¡± He really could not stand to listen on; his entire face was clouded... The situation before us clearly has absolutely nothing to do with me, alright!? Ou Chen had thought that Link and the others woulde forward to exin things. In the end, Link totally couldn¡¯t be bothered to do so. Xue Linglong and the rest were even watching with great interest. Ou Chen couldn¡¯t help but roar, ¡°It¡¯s not me, it¡¯s Brother Link. He easily suppressed two Stage Five powerhouses, and I was still lying on the ground at that point!¡± The Temple of Light crowd was dazed for a moment, and then everyone broke out intoughter. Someone even gave Ou Chen a meaningful nce. ¡°We understand! The Holy Son is refusing to take credit; he¡¯s really too humble!¡± ¡°How could a Stage Four powerhouse suppress a Star-rank powerhouse? Two of them at that! Holy Son, you are too humble!¡± The Temple of Light¡¯s people clearly didn¡¯t believe Ou Chen¡¯s words. Ou Chen felt that the size of his psychological trauma was probably about the same as that of those captives. ¡°Holy Son, the corner of your lips are twitching really violently. Were you injured in the fight earlier?¡± someone asked concernedly. ¡°Holy Son, your face is really grim, but you appear to be even more dignified now!¡± Ou Chen was almost unable to contain himself; he was about to fly into a rage then and there! Meanwhile, the two elders¡ªTian Mingyuan and Wu Hao¡ªwere extremely sober. They knew what their Holy Son was capable of. The scene before them certainly wasn¡¯t something the Holy Son could achieve. Hence, they directed their grateful gazes at Link. ¡°Many thanks, Little Brother Link. This is the second time my Temple of Light has received your kindness; we will certainly remember this great kindness in our hearts!¡± Wu Hao said with emotion. Link only nodded slightly. ¡°It¡¯s nothing.¡± Both Tian Mingyuan and Wu Hao¡¯s faces were slightly hot. They originally wanted to protect Link, but Link carried them into victory in the end... They were also even more sure that Link absolutely wasn¡¯t an ordinary person. The Temple of Light must stay on friendly terms with such a powerhouse and build a deep friendship! At the same time, streams of vigorous auras rippled outward at the area! Those Star-rank powerhouses at the campsite¡ªwho hadn¡¯t shown themselves previously¡ªarrived as a group! Strong pressure instantly swept through the area; the frightening suppression felt as if tempestuous tides were pushing toward them! The crowd of Temple of Light Stage Four powerhouses was pale as a strong sense of suffocation surged into their hearts! Chapter 174: The Holy Son Takes the Blame! Shock!

Chapter 174: The Holy Son Takes the me! Shock!

Four figures broke through the air and arrived at the area. Their suppression was like the sea; waves of air sts burst out, sweeping in all directions¡ªthe impetus was extraordinary! Powerhouses that had reached Stage Five could be termed ¡®non-human¡¯ to a certain extent. With the help of various means and skills, these people possessed extremely terrifying destructibility¡ªthey could destroy one small town alone! Four figures, four Star-rank, child of heaven-like powerhouses... Including Jiang Wencheng and Zhu Changfeng, the three major factions had each sent two top powerhouses to vie for the historical ruin¡ªone in the light and one in the dark. They had made ample preparations. However, these four superior existences¡ªwhich countless low-level [Doomsday Online] yers could only look up to¡ªwere dumbstruck altogether. There was no other reason; it was truly because the scene before their eyes was too unexpected! How did the two Stage Five powerhouses on our side just get defeated? They have even been bundled into balls and tossed aside? The countenances of two men turned grim at once¡ªthey were the hidden powerhouses of Ancient Martial Alliance and Evil Sect. As Stage Five powerhouses of major factions, they regarded themselves as humanity¡¯s top talents. They were extremely arrogant, even a little conceited. The scene before their eyes was no different from harshly pping their faces several times¡ªit was practically a terrible humiliation! The countenances of another pair¡ªmale and female¡ªwere also exceptionally ghastly. Actually, they had not spent much time rushing here. Although the campsite wasrge, rushing over was just a matter of a few minutes. But within those few minutes, Jiang Wencheng and Zhu Changfeng had undergone changes in appearance; it was truly surprising. The three major factions had formed an alliance, and they were bound together for good or ill. Theseters¡¯ acts were undoubtedly provoking all of them! ¡°How bold! Are you taking advantage that there¡¯s nobody here for my Ancient Martial Alliance?¡± A middle-aged powerhouse was the first to yell, his icy eyes ring fixedly at Ou Chen. If gazes could kill, Ou Chen probably would¡¯ve been sliced into eight pieces by him! Ou Chen: ¡°...¡± This person was clearly also a capable one among the Stage Five existences. He was a powerhouse that was at least above Stage Five, Level 6. The suppression was so strong that even Ou Chen felt a little ufortable. Most importantly, who have I provoked? Everything before their eyes is the work of Link, all right? Iid on the ground throughout the entire course of things, yet I can incur so much hate? Who else but me!? Ou Chen wasn¡¯t a pushover. Anger surged in his chest, and he harshly red back at that middle-aged man from Ancient Martial Alliance. ¡°Hmph, you¡¯re very arrogant huh! I¡¯ve seen your information; the Temple of Light¡¯s Holy Son is it? Do you think the Temple of Light can make an enemy of us three factions? Do you have the capital?¡± Evil Sect¡¯s hidden powerhouse¡ªHan Yingjie¡ªcoldly uttered this as he stepped forward, his robes dancing wildly. Ou Chen faltered. They have actually identified me! It seems like theserge factions¡¯ intelligence organizations are pretty strong too, but this really wasn¡¯t my doing! But even if Ou Chen were to tly deny it now, these four powerhouses¡ªall from major factions¡ªwouldn¡¯t believe him. After all, there were only two Stage Five powerhouses opposite them. Among them, Wu Hao was gravely injured. Wu Hao¡¯s face was deathly pale, and he even needed Tian Mingyuan to support him. Only Ou Chen looked fine right now. If it wasn¡¯t his doing, who else could it be? Ou Chen was absolutely unable to get rid of this me. ¡°Cut the crap and take these people down! They¡¯ll be just nice to act as our stepping stones to enter the historical ruin! If you provoke us, you have to have the awareness of paying with your lives!¡± Martial God Hall¡¯s He Lunhai was dressed in white with a longsword in hand. His presence was outstanding, but the words he uttered were extremely ruthless; he clearly wasn¡¯t an easy opponent. Thedy beside him, Wu Ping, also brought out a longsword from her individual backpack. Cold light swirled in her eyes! ¡°All right, let me¡ªWang Hao¡ªlearn from the brilliant moves of the Temple of Light¡¯s Holy Son!¡± The middle-aged man from Ancient Martial Alliance struck first. He threw out a punch, and a sharp sonic boom exploded as if it sought to tear apart everyone¡¯s ear membranes! While the fist wind ravaged, a tiger phantom even pounced forward abruptly! The tiger was in charge of killing; this massive tiger phantom seemed toe from seas of blood and mountains of corpses. Its ferocity was monstrous as it went biting toward Ou Chen with a foul wind! ¡°F*ck!¡± Ou Chen was taken aback. Since he was also a Stage Five powerhouse, he could sense how frightening this attack from the other party was. Thus, he hurriedly struck as well. As Ou Chen swung his staff, streaks of golden light gathered. Multiple golden res gathered and burst out, mming toward the massive tiger like meteors! Air sts swept across, and explosions wreaked havoc! The massive tiger actually tore out all of the res, and they gradually turned into nothing! ¡°Humph!¡± Wang Hao sneered, clearly rather displeased that he hadn¡¯t managed to kill with one strike. His figure swiftly darted forward, about toe close andunch a closebat attack at Ou Chen. The corners of Ou Chen¡¯s eyes instantly twitched hard! Seriously, although Ou Chen wasn¡¯t weak and had the trump card given by the Lord, he was a Mage after all. His body was weak. If he was pulled close to a Fighter, it only meant death for him! Moreover, the other party was a powerhouse from Ancient Martial Alliance. These people cultivated ancient martial arts and were far more powerful than the usual Fighter profession yers. Multiple golden balls shot out from Ou Chen¡¯s staff as he quickly retreated, wanting to seek help from Link. Meanwhile, the few Temple of Light members¡ªwho were watching the fight at the side¡ªwere still cheering for him. ¡°The Holy Son is invincible; defeat is the consequence when you challenge my temple¡¯s Holy Son!¡± ¡°Yes, two Stage Five powerhouses have already fallen! Even if four moree, they will meet the same end!¡± ¡°My Holy Son dominates the current generation; all of you are merely y chickens and pottery dogs!¡± ... Under the drive of these words, Wang Hao¡¯s attacks became increasingly ferocious. Like a beast in human form, he brought tremendous pressure to Ou Chen. ¡°Damn it!¡± Ou Chen cursed inwardly, and his countenance was as grim as the bottom of a pot. He wished he could strangle those fellows to death right now. Finally, after Wang Hao turned to dodge an energy ball attack, he was about to arrive at Ou Chen¡¯s front! Wu Hao¡ªwho was skilled in closebat¡ªwas severely wounded right now, so he waspletely unable to act in time. Ou Chen¡¯s scalp went numb for a moment. Without a body shield, it was really difficult for him to employ all of his strength. When it came to closebat, he would only get thrashed all the more. At that moment, how could Ou Chen still care about the Holy Son¡¯s dignity and bearing? He quickly shouted, ¡°Brother Link! Save me!¡± ¡°Die!¡± Wang Hao roared as a punch was delivered. Fist wind blew in all directions, the air was sted open, and fist shadows¡ªwhich filled the sky¡ªappeared! Link shot a nce at Ou Chen. He didn¡¯t say anything, only swinging out a strike! [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique]! In an instant, a sword ray abruptly leaped out¡ªit was extremely brilliant! The overwhelming sword energy that engulfed the area was even more startling! This strike of elegance and talent suppressed the fist shadows in the sky like a passing beauty! So much so that the universe became dull and colorless beneath this strike! Boom! A loud boom reverberated in the air! The fist shadows and sword glow collided, causing billowing smoke and dust to arise. The afterwinds that surged in all directions were like a typhoon, lifting and sending all the surrounding tents and trees flying! Everyone was no longer able to get a clear look at the fight. ¡°Hm?!¡± For a moment, the Temple of Light members and the three Stage Five Star-rank powerhouses spectating the battle were all shocked! ¡°That earlier strike was really released by a Stage Four powerhouse?¡± Han Yingjie gasped with narrowed eyes. The few Temple of Light members stared at one another, speechless. They were slightly enlightened and perplexed. ¡°Could it be that the Holy Son wasn¡¯t being humble earlier? Was all of this Link¡¯s doing!?¡± ¡°It was Link who defeated the two Stage Five powerhouses?!¡± Chapter 175: Xing Yi Horse Form! Battle!

Chapter 175: Xing Yi Horse Form! Battle!

The terrifying momentum that burst out from Link¡¯s casual strike shocked everyone and made them go wild! The group of Temple of Light Stage Four powerhouses was presently stunned, and they were rather puzzled. The major factions¡¯ few Stage Five Star-rank powerhouses were also in disbelief regarding everything that happened before their eyes. A Stage Four [Doomsday Online] yer was actually able to contend with a top Star-rank powerhouse at the present stage! This could be said to have startled them so much that all of their eyeballs popped out. And this matter¡ªwhich was unheard of¡ªhad truly happened before their eyes. Hence, how could everyone not be shocked? Han Yingjie, He Lunhai, and Wu Ping eyed each other as their countenances constantly changed. After faltering for a moment, they suddenly realized something! Could it be that we had already targeted the wrong person earlier? Could it be that the initiator of all of this isn¡¯t the Temple of Light¡¯s Holy Son, but that young man? A sharp glint shed through He Lunhai¡¯s eyes as he asked Han Yingjie, ¡°Does your Evil Sect have information regarding this person?¡± Han Yingjie shook his head. Though it was true that Evil Sect¡¯s intelligence organization was powerful, he really didn¡¯t have information on this person. ording to reason, such a strange powerhouse shouldn¡¯t have appeared in this area. After some thought, Han Yingjie voiced out a conjecture. ¡°Could he be from Unfallen City? The city isn¡¯t far from here, but they aren¡¯t under any of the major factions¡¯mand.¡± ¡°Interesting. This makes them newly risen powerhouses.¡± He Lunhai nodded, and the corners of his lips curled up into an icy smile. Since they aren¡¯t under any of the major factions¡¯mand, this means that he has no background. A powerhouse with no background, yet he still has such capabilities. There are definitely many secrets or powerful equipment on him. An innocent man gets into trouble because of his wealth. He Lunhai became even more interested in that Link. Han Yingjie also thought of this point; his eyes shifted, and he no longer said anything else. Just as their conversation ended, in the center of the battle¡ªwhere smoke and dust billowed¡ªa man howled. Afterwinds swept in all directions, surging in the void as they forcefully dispelled the smoke and dust. A figure appeared in everyone¡¯s eyes. It was Ancient Martial Alliance¡¯s Wang Hao, who had delivered the overwhelming fist shadows earlier. He was presently rather battered. The ravaging sword energy had ripped out many cuts out of Wang Hao¡¯s clothes, but he had be even more berserk! Wang Hao¡¯s beard and hair stood on end as his vigor erupted like an insane lion¡¯s. He increasingly appeared to have an rming presence! Berserk vigor seemed to be burning, raising hot waves that pushed toward all four directions. Everyone could feel the anger in Wang Hao¡¯s chest, which seemingly sought to burn everything down! Wang Hao could¡¯ve killed Ou Chen earlier, but he was obstructed by a streak of sword glow! Most importantly, the person that acted was a Stage Four [Doomsday Online] yer! Being obstructed by the strike of a person whose level was far beneath his own was virtually a stinging insult to the arrogant Wang Hao! A mere Stage Four ought to be in awe of him. Why did Link dare strike at him? Wang Hao could no longer care about Ou Chen now. He looked toward Link instead¡ªthe rage in his eyes was like flowingva. ¡°Rascal, you are seeking doom!¡± Link totally couldn¡¯t be bothered to respond to him. He just coolly scanned the four Stage Five powerhouses¡ªwho hade forward¡ªand spoke with a smile. ¡°Are all the Stage Fives here? Let¡¯s not miss anyone out.¡± Sensing the disdain and indifference in Link¡¯s gaze, Wang Hao and the others all felt a sense of difort and rage emerge. Not miss anyone out? Is heining that the four of us¡ªall Stage Five powerhouses¡ªstill aren¡¯t enough? This fellow¡¯s appetite is bigger than the sky! ¡°Conceited!¡± He Lunhai¡¯s gaze became increasingly somber as he spoke coldly. Ou Chen made use of the interval when Link blocked the strike for him to distance himself from Wang Hao. He then moved to hide behind Link. As he watched Link¡¯s figure in front of him, Ou Chen no longer felt flustered even though he was facing four Stage Five powerhouses. Instead, he felt an immense sense of security, and he couldn¡¯t help letting out a long breath. I am safe! It¡¯s still Brother Link who is reliable at the critical moment! Wouldn¡¯t it be a great loss if such a powerhouse wasn¡¯t kidnapped and brought into the Temple of Light?! Ou Chen thought inwardly; the joy of escaping an ordeal was written all over his face. The Temple of Light crowd at the side¡ªwho was initially extremely reverent of their Holy Son¡ªwas at a loss for words now. It seemed like everything that happened before had indeed been Link¡¯s doing¡ªthis person was the true ruthless person! Disregarding what everyone was thinking in their hearts, Link suddenly stood up. His white robes fluttered like snow. With the [King¡¯s Sword] in hand, his presence was extraordinary! He was like an ancient sword immortal who crossed the long river of time toe and was overlooking all his enemies! The powerhouses of the major factions in this area were all present. It would be just nice for him to take them down one by one. The information that those major factions had wasn¡¯t little. They also owned a lot of good stuff, so these people would probably give Link considerable gains. Upon seeing Link stand up, Wang Hao no longer restrained the killing intent in his chest. With a roar, his figure leaped forward once again. With both fists swinging, the air instantly broke apart, releasing explosive sounds! Wang Hao had been practicing Xing Yi Quan[1] even before the apocalypse. After the apocalypse arrived, he had awakened a Diamond-grade hidden profession, [Master of Xing Yi]. There was a saying that went: ¡®Tai Chi takes ten years of practice, while Xing Yi allows one to kill within a year!¡¯ XIng Yi Quan was an extremely tyrannicalbat art to begin with! After the apocalypse arrived, everyone was able to raise their levels and elevate their respective attributes. This had truly demonstrated this ancient martial art¡¯s might all the more! After Wang Hao entered Stage Five, hisbat abilities became extremely frightening. He could rank at the top amongst those of the same level! Presently, he struck with rage; Xing Yi Quan¡¯s horse form wasunched. His leg muscles were taut like steel as if they contained immense strength¡ªeven the ground cracked at every inch beneath his steps! Both of Wang Hao¡¯s fists even went straight for Link¡¯s skull. The heavy punches were like galloping horses¡¯ hooves as the fist winds broke the void¡ªthe might was fearsome! Ou Chen¡¯s heart instantly dropped for a moment. Ou Chen sensed the immense pressure surging toward him, and he quickly reminded, ¡°Link, don¡¯t let hime close! The majority of the powerhouses from Ancient Martial Alliance practice ancient martial arts; their fists and legs possess mightparable to skills!¡± ¡°Toote! Die!¡± Wang Hao let out a coldugh. He was no longer far from Link, and his fists swung down brutally! The air rang. In the emptiness, searing fist winds gathered and even condensed into a ferocious battle steed. The battle steed raised its hooves and stepped down harshly! Some distance away, Han Yingjie, He Lunhai, and the other Stage Five powerhouses¡¯ pupils contracted! Wang Hao had evidently brought out his real skill. The might of this strike was frightening; even they¡ªStage Five powerhouses¡ªmight not necessarily be certain that they could receive it! ¡°That fellow¡¯s doomed!¡± Han Yingjie said decisively, his tone extremely steadfast. Link took a nce at the horse phantom, yet his expression remained indifferent. The next moment, a ck shadow abruptly leaped forward. Long, jet-ck limbs reached out and collided with therge hooves. A roar sounded, and the void exploded. It seemed as if the space was about to be torn apart by this fearsome collision! That utterly ferocious horse phantom actually crumbled before the dark shadow! Everyone was wide-eyed, and the present Wang Hao wore a look full of incredulity and surprise! His fists then crashed into the ck shadow¡¯s long limbs! Wang Hao¡ªwho was a Stage Five powerhouse¡ªactually sensed a great force that he absolutely couldn¡¯t withstand and was instantly sent flying! [1] Xing Yi Quan is ssified as an internal style of Chinese martial arts. Its name trantes approximately to Form-Intention Fist Chapter 176: The Might of God Devourer Ant! Qi and Blood Pill!

Chapter 176: The Might of God Devourer Ant! Qi and Blood Pill!

Boom! With a loud boom, the Star-rank powerhouse from Ancient Martial Alliance¡ªWang Hao¡ªheavily mmed into the ground like a cannonball, creating a huge crater in the ground! The group of Stage Four Temple of Light members was shocked, their mouths slightly ajar! One should understand that Wang Hao was a Star-rank powerhouse who excelled in physicalbat. His punches contained thousands of catties of force, and they were enough to st away ordinary Stage Four yers. Yet, he was sent flying just like this? Even Wu Hao, a Temple of Light Elder, couldn¡¯t help but gulp! His current injuries aside, he would never be able to send a Stage Five powerhouse flying in one blow, even if he was at his peak! This was simply a crushing battle! Wu Hao and Tian Mingyuan looked at each other; they were both surprised and shocked! He Lunhai and the others¡ªwho were a distance away¡ªbecame silent as well! The face of Han Yingjie¡ªwho said that Link was doomed earlier¡ªalso changed. This p in the face came too quickly! Old Wang was a disgrace! ¡°That ck shadow is definitely not human! It has such terrifying strength!¡± He Lunhai narrowed his eyes and spoke in a deep voice. They weren¡¯t weaklings. After a brief moment of shock, they began to focus on the main point. That ck shadow¡ªwhich was able to send a person flying in one blow¡ªwas obviously terrifyingly strong. Such creatures that were skilled at closebat were the nightmare of most Mages! Upon hearing He Lunhai¡¯s reminder, Han Yingjie and Wu Ping also stared at the ck shadow that suddenly appeared, only to see a giant insect as tall as a human amidst the smoke and dust. This insect looked like an ant densely covered with faint blue lines. The lines were extremely mysterious as if filled with the purest truth between heaven and earth! The most crucial thing was that an extremely barbaric and fierce aura surrounded this giant ant! As if it hade from primitive times, this ant¡¯s chelicerae were powerful enough to tear apart heaven and earth! This ant was Link¡¯s summoned creature¡ªGod Devourer Ant! Previously, it hadn¡¯t been summoned. When it appeared at this moment, it revealed its terrifying battle power! God Devourer Ants were a prehistoric species known for their strength. At the peak of their power, they could even tear apart heaven and earth and devour the gods! Thus, it wasn¡¯t a difficult task for God Devourer Ant to send a Stage Five [Doomsday Online] yer flying! At this moment, God Devourer Ant turned around slightly and let out an intimate, buzzing sound toward Link. Such a fierce giant ant was so meek and respectful to Link. The scene made Han Yingjie and the others¡¯ gazes change again. Link stroked God Devourer Ant¡¯s head, nced at Han Yingjie and the others¡ªwho were slightly further away¡ªand said with a smile, ¡°Go. Don¡¯t let any of them go; keep them alive.¡± God Devourer Ant nodded its head humanely. It then turned around with its pitch-ck eyes¡ªwhich were so cold that there seemed to be a collision between frosty stars! Han Yingjie, Wu Ping, and the others¡¯ hearts went cold, and they felt inexplicable horror! ¡°This kid is so odd. His sword skills are extraordinary, but he doesn¡¯t seem to be of a Fighter profession. Yet, he can alsomand such a terrifying ferocious beast. Where is he from?¡± said Han Yingjie, surprised. At the same time, an angry, wild roar suddenly sounded. It exploded in everyone¡¯s ears like a beast¡¯s roar! ¡°Damn it! I, Wang Hao, will kill you today!¡± A figure leaped out of the huge crater; it was Wang Hao. However, he looked extremely wretched. He no longer had the Grandmaster aura he had when he appeared earlier. His ck hair was disheveled, and there was fresh blood on the corner of his mouth. One of his arms drooped down weakly¡ªit should¡¯ve been broken by God Devourer Ant during the earlier collision. With a roar, Wang Hao quickly took out a pill from his personal backpack and swallowed it. His faint aura began to recover in a way that was visible to the naked eye. It even improved! Wang Hao¡¯s blood boiled as if it was ignited. A wave of heat steamed out of his body; his body was like an oven, and his hot breath stung the crowd¡¯s eyes! Boom! Boom! Boom! The blood in Wang Hao¡¯s body seemed to have transformed into a raging river, emitting bursts of explosion sounds! Even his previously broken arm was recovering¡ªthe broken bone and torn flesh were healing! ¡°That pill can enhance his strength!¡± Wu Hao said solemnly. Wang Hao sneered. He stretched his healed arm, but a trace of regret shed past his eyes. The pill he had just taken was the [Qi and Blood Pill] researched by Ancient Martial Alliance based on ancient books. It could significantly increase one¡¯s strength and help one heal from their injuries! However, all this was only temporary. If one couldn¡¯t kill their opponent within ten minutes, their state would quickly deteriorate. Even with a Priest healing them, the state of weakness wouldst longer than normal! The pills¡¯ raw ingredients were rare mutated nts and materials obtained from monsters. They were worth a lot of money. Wang Hao really didn¡¯t expect that a battle with a Stage Four opponent would force him to waste a hard-earned [Qi and Blood Pill]. After taking the pill, there was still a period of weakness. He didn¡¯t dare to trust He Lunhai and the others fully. These people were united by their interests, and they might take advantage of his weakness to attack him. But now that Jiang Wencheng had been captured, he could only give it a shot. Only after he saved Jiang Wencheng could Ancient Martial Alliance¡¯s team be strong enough to deter He Lunhai and the others, to stop them from making a move. With that thought, Wang Hao made a fist with one hand and waved it behind his back. This was a sign to He Lunhai and the others to take action together instead of just watching. The kid in front is really weird. Wang Hao wasn¡¯t as reckless as he appeared to be, and he naturally wouldn¡¯t lose his cool. Han Yingjie, He Lunhai, and Wu Ping saw Wang Hao¡¯s signal and looked at each other, holding their weapons tightly. ¡°Kill!¡± Wang Hao roared and leaped out like a big swallow zooming across the sky. This was [Xing Yi?Swallow Form]. As his body appeared in mid-air, his aura changed again. A loud sound could be hearding from his sinews and bones. His spine bulged like a huge dragon, and his fists were shrouded with extremely terrifying power! An indistinct dragon roar sounded, mixed with the sound of the howling wind. It was [Xing Yi?Dragon Form]. After executing two forms in session, the superimposed power became even more terrifying. A giant swallow shadow and giant dragon shadow emerged in the void and charged toward Link! The domain¡ªwhich uniquely belonged to Wang Hao¡ªunfurled at this moment! Fist wind blew in all directions as if this ce had be the center of a storm. The fist wind was like des, tearing through the air as it emitted the sharp sound of wind breaking. The giant swallow and dragon shadow in the domain appeared more formidable and awe-inspiring! The few Stage Four Temple of Light members turned several shades paler. They sharply retreated outward to avoid the raging fist wind! Link¡¯s expression remained calm, and God Devourer Ant¡ªwho was in front of him¡ªsuddenly moved! God Devourer Ant leaped out abruptly, its chelicerae colliding with the Dragon-Swallow shadow! Boom! Boom! The space around them shook! Even the Dragon-Swallow shadow couldn¡¯t resist the God Devourer Ant¡¯s might! Horror shed through Wang Hao¡¯s eyes. His fist move changed again¡ªTiger Form, Horse Form, Bear Form... One after another! At the same time, he roared, ¡°What are you waiting for?¡± Chapter 177: Siege! Battle of the Greatest!

Chapter 177: Siege! Battle of the Greatest!

The roars never ceased. The giant bear growled, the tiger roared, and the dragon waved its ws. But under God Devourer Ant¡¯s relentless bombardment, their attacks were shattered! Even Wang Hao¡ªwho had activated his domain and was full-on attacking using his Xing Yi Quan¡ªcouldn¡¯t hold on for too long. He shouted out for people to help hold off the attacks. Although Han Yingjie, He Lunhai, and Wu Ping were happy to see Wang Hao being worn down by the enemy, they didn¡¯t want the weird young man in front of them to defeat them one by one. As a result, Han Yingjie and the other two¡¯s eyes shed when Wang Hao roared, and they moved instantly! Han Yingjie was the Evil Sect¡¯s top powerhouse. In an instant, the domain that was his expanded. A chill swept through the ce abruptly. The temperature dropped sharply, and the winds howled in the forest! All the Stage Four Temple of Light powerhouses felt a tingle on their scalps as if they had entered an area where darkness reigned. Even the three major factions¡¯ members that had rushed over felt strange. They had goosebumps all over them. At the same time, Han Yingjie¡¯s figurepletely disappeared from everyone¡¯s sight. ¡°What kind of domain is this? It can freeze people¡¯s energy and blood, paralyze perception, and allow him to hide himself? It¡¯s not ordinary!¡± said Tian Mingyuan in a low voice, his expression solemn and wary. He Lunhai and Wu Ping of Martial God Hall also activated their domains quickly. Both of them came from the same powerful sect, but their domains werepletely different. He Lunhai¡¯s sharp sword energy surged, plowing the ground under his feet into deep gullies! The surging sword energy slowly lifted up his body; his clothes fluttered, and his expression was indifferent like a supreme sword, overlooking everyone! Coupled with He Lunhai¡¯s monk-like demeanor, this visual was excellent. It made Ou Chen, Xue Linglong, and the others feel an unspeakable sense of oppression! Sword energy vortices quickly appeared all around him. Just by looking, it was possible to perceive their unparalleled sharpness; it was as if they could shatter anything! As He Lunhai¡¯s figure swept out, he swung the longsword in his hand. But instead of shing God Devourer Ant in order to help Wang Hao, the sword aura headed straight for Link! He obviously intended to take down the leader first! Along with the sword aura, the sword energy vortices¡ªwhich were swirling in his domain¡ªalso swept toward Link! He Lunhai sneered at Link and shouted in a deep voice, ¡°Boy, isn¡¯t your sword skill very good? Today, I will teach you what swordy actually is! Before you reach Stage Five¡ªbefore you have your own sword energy domain, sword skills are just skills, not Dao!¡± ¡°You can¡¯t reach my level; you never will! Only those trash will be defeated by you!¡± He Lunhai¡¯s words were full of arrogance. As a Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse, he did have the right to be prideful. But this was as good as stepping on Jiang Wencheng and the others while raising himself. In an instant, even Wang Hao¡¯s expression soured... Wu Ping¡¯s weapon was also a sword, but dark clouds appeared in the originally clear and sunny sky as her domain expanded. Soon, droplets of rain fell from above! The rain wasn¡¯t heavy, but the drizzle left fine holes in the ground! Some Stage Four [Doomsday Online] yers didn¡¯t manage to avoid her domain and had wounds suddenly appear on their bodies, spurting scarlet blood! ¡°This is no ordinary rain; every drop of rain is sharp and possesses terrifying power. Avoid it!¡± Wu Hao said grimly. Such a domain was equivalent to an Area of Effect skill! Although the people from the Temple of Light weren¡¯t the attack¡¯s main targets, they would still be affected. Generally, Stage Four powerhouses would find it hard to withstand such an attack. ¡°Damn it!¡± Wu Hao yelled. I can¡¯t just sit back and watch this happen. Despite his injuries, he expanded his own domain to counter the effects of the opponent¡¯s domain. Circles of golden ripples suddenly spread from Wu Hao¡¯s feet, isting him from the influence of Wu Ping and the others¡¯ domains. However, Wu Hao¡¯s face¡ªwhich was originally already a little pale¡ªbecame paler. Blood was even flowing out from the corner of his mouth! ¡°Old Wu!¡± Tian Mingyuan shouted. He frowned, turned his head, and quicklymanded the several Stage Four yers. ¡°Use thebined attack formation to help reduce Elder Wu¡¯s burden!¡± ¡°Yes!¡± The group of Stage Four Temple of Light powerhouses responded quickly, and golden halos soon radiated from them. These halos were filled with light and warmth, and they were of the same origin as Wu Hao¡¯s power¡ªthey helped Wu Hao consolidate his domain. But Wu Ping didn¡¯t even look at them; her goal was Link. ¡°Go!¡± With a yell, Wu Ping waved the longsword in her hand, and the fine rain condensed into small snakes made of rainwater. Then, they all headed toward Link! The sword aura, the sword energy vortices, the little snakes made of rain, and the missing Han Yingjie made Ou Chen feel suffocated and a strong sense of impending crisis! A Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse wouldn¡¯t draw attention to themselves if they did nothing. But once they made a move, it was bound to be impactful and terrifyingly powerful! Ou Chen looked at Link¡¯s back, his heart filled with hope and despair. Can the man in front of me really defeat these people? Ou Chen also expanded his domain swiftly, and the staff in his hand glowed as bright energy pulsed! However, Link¡ªwho was facing several Stage Five powerhouses¡ªwas still calm and even somewhat indifferent. He waved his hand. ¡°Haoyue, you can make your move.¡± With those words, Luo Haoyue¡ªwho had long been unable to hold back¡ªsuddenly smiled. It was an extremely cold smile, but it contained palpitating killing intent. ¡°As you will it.¡± The next moment, the shadow under Luo Haoyue¡¯s feet suddenly began to twist. A profane and strange aura filled the ground, and the ground was soon covered withyers of dense spider silk! Link didn¡¯t stay idle. The sword energy surged around his body, and the [Holy Spirit Ne] glowed faintly. ¡°Holy Sword of the Light!¡± While Link¡¯s low voice fell, the [King¡¯s Sword] in his hand rotated as it rose. The sword¡¯s bearing was fierce and majestic, and the bright light it emitted enveloped the world! At the same time, the vast power of light in the void moved with the [King¡¯s Sword]. In an instant, a huge sword¡ªtens of feet long¡ªcondensed and appeared! This holy sword¡ªwhich seemed to have descended from the sky¡ªwas majestic and vast. It was like a divine punishment that hade from ancient times to drive away evil spirits! ,000% Intelligence attribute light damage! Link¡¯s own powerful attributes gave this sword even more terrifying power! It was in no way inferior, even whenpared with the skills of the Stage Six powerhouse, Haoyue! At this moment, the pupils of Wu Ping, He Lunhai, and the others all shrank slightly, and they had shocked expressions! They simply couldn¡¯t believe that a Stage Four powerhouse could explode with such power! Suddenly, the Holy Sword shed down, and there was a roar between heaven and earth! The sword aura and sword energy vortex that He Lunhai created, together with Wu Ping¡¯s rain snakes, shattered one after the other! The aftershocks of the battle sent even Stage Four powerhouses such as Xue Linglong flying. The ground was broken into pieces, and the trees were turned into dust! At this moment, a sneer suddenly came from behind Link! Chapter 178: Suppress the Greatest! Captivity!

Chapter 178: Suppress the Greatest! Captivity!

¡°No matter how many tricks you have, you still have to die!¡± His words were full of killing intent; each word was like an ice ball, emitting a creepy coldness! At the same time, an illusory figure suddenly appeared from behind Link! It was Han Yingjie, who had previously disappeared before everyone¡¯s eyes! At this moment, he was like a ghost that sought revenge¡ªhis body was in a semi-illusory state. The moment his figure appeared, one of his arms¡ªas well as the dagger in his hand¡ªbecame solid and flickered with skill light as it ruthlessly pierced toward Link¡¯s undershirt! The pupils of Ou Chen¡ªwho was just slightly relieved earlier¡ªsuddenly shrunk slightly, and his face was full of surprise! ¡°No!¡± He roared, ready to make his move, but it was toote! A faint green light lit up and reflected in everyone¡¯s eyes! This was the full power of a Stage Five powerhouse. Whether or not one was prepared for the attack, eve/n a same-rank physically strong Fighter would find it difficult to resist! This was a one-hit kill! It was unavoidable and unstoppable! It now seemed that Wu Ping and He Lunhai were shielding Han Yingjie, creating this perfect opportunity! Stage Five Star-rank powerhouses had already preliminarily mastered their domains and begun the climb to the stage of sanctification. But they weren¡¯t saints, and they weren¡¯t without weaknesses. Not to mention that they didn¡¯t have the ability to be reborn from a drop of blood! Once some vital points of the body were torn into pieces, one would quickly lose their life! What¡¯s more, Han Yingjie had cast apparent skills; it was still unknown how powerful their effects were! This poisonous snake¡ªwhich had been lying dormant on the sidelines¡ªhad finally revealed its deadly fangs! Ou Chen knew that it would be difficult for them to escape the encirclement and this ce if the others killed Link. It was even possible that they would be buried here today! Ou Chen, Wu Hao, and the others¡¯ faces turned pale all of a sudden! Pu chi! Amidst the sound of wind being cut through, the dagger pierced through Link¡¯s body. It twisted viciously, but there wasn¡¯t even a single spurt of blood! The grim smile on Han Yingjie¡¯s face instantly froze, and a hint of dismay and horror shed through his eyes! This isn¡¯t the feeling of piercing through flesh and blood. I didn¡¯t feel the warm blood gushing out! Is this figure in front of me fake, or is it some kind of illusion? As Han Yingjie was in doubt, the figure in front of him¡ªwhich the dagger had pierced¡ªslowly turned his head and revealed a smile that sent chills down his spine! ¡°It¡¯s fake!¡± Han Yingjie frowned as an rm sounded in his heart. He couldn¡¯t care less about the Link in front of him. He quickly vanished, seemingly disappearing in front of the crowd again! At this moment, Wu Ping, He Lunhai, and the others¡ªwho were all a distance away¡ªwere stunned. How could it be fake? The other party had clearly counteracted both our attacks! Wu Hao, Tian Mingyuan, and the others from the Temple of Light froze in ce. Fake? Link did not die?! The scene before them was beyond their expectations, leaving them baffled. Ou Chen didn¡¯t know whether tough or cry. He felt as if the day were a roller coaster, and his heart was barely holding out. But before Han Yingjiepletely turned into nothingness, a bunch of spider silk wrapped around his arm. ¡°It¡¯s toote to want to leave,¡± stated Luo Haoyue coldly, her face cruel and ice cold. Turbulent and obscure power entered Han Yingjie along the spider silk. This power eroded and polluted Han Yingjie¡¯s spirit. A dreamlike whisper sounded in Han Yingjie¡¯s ears. His eyes zed over, and his expression was full of horror. Ou Chen¡¯s skills had also arrived. Golden light shone from his staff and turned into a phantomsso, which looped itself over Han Yingjie! It seemed to be some kind of imprisonment skill! Under theirbined efforts, Han Yingjie¡¯s non-corporeal state began to waver. It was finallypletely broken, and Han Yingjie once again became corporeal! One distorted spider shadow after another rushed toward him! Crack! A sound like tearing silk was heard! Han Yingjie¡¯s arms and thighs were torn off, and blood sttered everywhere! The severe pain cleared his vision, and Han Yingjie seemed to wake up from a nightmare. He suddenly reacted and regretfully said, ¡°He switched himself earlier!¡± Han Yingjie was referring to Link. Han Yingjie had originally nned to take advantage and attack Link when Link was making his move on Wu Ping and the others. Unexpectedly, Link was a step ahead of him and had left a reflection that couldn¡¯t be differentiated from his true self in his ce. Otherwise, Han Yingjie wouldn¡¯t have returned to his real body abruptly, let alone end up in his current situation! At this time, the pierced ¡®Link¡¯ slowly dissipated and turned into nothingness. ¡°Don¡¯t kill him.¡± An indifferent voice was heard, and a figure walked out from one side¡ªit was Link. His white robe was spotless, and he still looked handsome and dashing. The four top human powerhouses couldn¡¯t even touch the corners of his clothes. The pierced ¡®Link¡¯ was just a reflection from the [Mirror of Reflection]. Han Yingjie had thought he was doing a good job of staying hidden, having minimized all traces of his existence. However, Link had been long prepared. After the [Holy Sword of the Light] fell, he used the [Ring of Teleportation] to leave the ce, leaving only a reflection. ¡°Yes.¡± Luo Haoyue nodded slightly. The few distorted spider shadows were no longer biting Han Yingjie. They instead spewed out strands of spider silk, which bound him and temporarily sealed the bloody wound. As long as it wasn¡¯t a fatal injury, a Stage Five powerhouse was very tenacious. Even the loss of limbs wouldn¡¯t affect their survival. On the other side, a roar sounded! In the end, Wang Hao was unable to hold off the God Devourer Ant. After being attacked sessively, he was beaten into the ground and covered with blood. His robe seemed to have be one made of blood. God Devourer Ant picked up the half-dead Wang Hao from the pit and threw him beside Han Yingjie. In just a few minutes, out of the four Star-rank reinforcements that hade in, two more were captured! When He Lunhai and Wu Ping saw this, they shuddered, and their scalps turned numb! Are all these people monsters? We are already the strongest of our current Stage and are powerful enough to destroy the city. Ordinary [Doomsday Online] yers can only gaze upon our backs! However, four Stage Five powerhouses have now been captured and thrown onto the ground unceremoniously! Are Stage Five powerhouses that weak? Where is our dignity? He Lunhai was barely able to maintain his cold and arrogant manner. He gulped, and his face turned pale. He looked at Link and Luo Haoyue, and fear rose in his eyes... Not only is this Stage Four yer weird and scary, but the woman behind him¡ªwho manipted the spider shadows¡ªis also terrifying. Stage Five Star-rank! Previously, the woman had hidden her aura, so they didn¡¯t notice it. Only when she activated her domain did they realize that she was also a top powerhouse... He Lunhai and Wu Ping looked at each other; both saw the intent to retreat in each other¡¯s eyes. Although the drops were good, their lives were more important. Only by saving their own lives could they have the opportunity to continue growing stronger. ¡°Run.¡± He Lunhai growled, his figure quickly receding. Chapter 179: The Real Monster! Kind Heart!

Chapter 179: The Real Monster! Kind Heart!

Wu Ping¡¯s face was also pale. After shing her sword in the direction of Link and the others, her figure quickly retreated! What the hell! If we stay here, both of us will die! That young man is simply a monster! They had never heard of any Stage Four yer that was so strong before! A Stage Four existence defeating a Stage Five powerhouse with such ease... If this piece of news was spread out, it would be enough to cause a sensation in the entire world! If it could be said that Stage Five yers were looked up to by countless people, then this opponent was even more of a monster than the Stage Five powerhouses! Even the Temple of Light was of no significance! This opponent almost suppressed their three major factions with just his strength alone! Who wouldn¡¯t be afraid and horrified? Even Wu Ping and He Lunhai regretted it in their hearts! If they had known that fighting for the ruins would cause them to encounter such an existence, they never would¡¯vee! Not only did they not obtain any benefits, but they even got into trouble... As their thoughts shed, Wu Ping and He Lunhai tried their best to flee. But even though they were fast, Link¡ªwho had the [Ring of Teleportation]¡ªwas even faster than them. [Instant Teleport] activate! The sword light that Wu Ping shed out smashed into the empty space, causing sand and pebbles to ssh around; it also tore a gully in the ground. However, this didn¡¯t even have the slightest effect of dying the enemy. Link¡¯s figure appeared in front of them instantly, not giving them the slightest chance to escape! Wu Ping and He Lunhai both stopped, dazedly staring at the young man in white not far away. A series of twisted spider shadows also gathered quickly. These shadows opened their big bloody mouths and sharply screamed at the duo! God Devourer Ant and Luo Haoyue were also blocking them from the sides! The aura of pollution and aberration continued to erode Wu Ping and He Lunhai¡¯s spirits, making their faces turn even uglier. Damn it; we can¡¯t escape! The two of them secretly cursed in their hearts. He Lunhai¡¯s air of arrogance weakened, and his eyes twitched slightly. He didn¡¯t wish to follow in the footsteps of Wang Hao and others. Taking a deep breath, He Lunhai said in a deep voice, ¡°Sir, we are from Martial God Hall. You are powerful, but Martial God Hall isn¡¯t a weak force either. There isn¡¯t a need to chase us to death, right? As long as you let the two of us leave today, we promise not to pursue this matter and cause you trouble.¡± The implications were very simple. If Link insisted on killing them all, Link might get into serious trouble since Martial God Hall wasn¡¯t an ordinary faction. After all, other Martial God Hall members had been watching the battle just now. They might already have sent back information about what happened here. Link just smiled indifferently and asked, ¡°You are threatening me?¡± Before the words fell, God Devourer Ant turned into an afterimage and flew out. In an instant, its slender chelicerae punched out like a fist! The air burst, and the air waves rolled! He Lunhai swung his sword to resist, but even Wang Hao of Ancient Martial Alliance couldn¡¯t resist God Devourer Ant¡¯s attacks. Thus, he was even more unable to do so. In an instant, the longsword flew out of his hand. The terrifying force directly exploded his entire arm, sending his flesh and blood flying everywhere! He Lunhai let out a painful wail, and droplets of cold sweat¡ªeach the size of a bean¡ªkept oozing out from his forehead! Wu Ping¡¯s eyes flickered, and she suddenly said, ¡°Sir, you have risen to power rapidly and have extraordinarybat power. You are a real child of heaven; I am willing to serve under yourmand...¡± When facing a situation where she didn¡¯t have much of a choice, this Stage Five Martial God Hall powerhouse instantly exposed her nature of being a traitor, wanting to switch to Link¡¯s side. However, Link didn¡¯t have much interest and just waved his hand, toozy to waste words with them. He Lunhai and Wu Ping truly panicked when they saw how Link was unmoved by both their threats and submission! But before the two of them acted, Luo Haoyue¡¯s domain instantly strengthened, and the sharp, profane whispers sounded in He Lunhai and Wu Ping¡¯s ears. They instantly went into a trance; their spirits were affected by the pollution, and the dense twisted spider shadows around them spewed out arge amount of spider silk, wrapping toward them. Soon, both of them were tied into balls and thrown beside Wang Hao and the others. Four Stage Five powerhouses, plus the previous two... As many as six Stage Five Star-rank powerhouses had be Link¡¯s prisoners. At this moment, the entire ce was dead silent. Quiet and scary! Whether it was the Temple of Light¡¯s people or the three major factions¡¯ members here, they all looked at Link and the others dazedly, their heads a little confused! Upon seeing that even the Stage Five powerhouses couldn¡¯t escape, most of the three major factions¡¯ members here didn¡¯t have the guts to run. They just felt that everything in front of them was really surreal... Then, these people soon followed in Jiang Wencheng and the others¡¯ footsteps, bing Link¡¯s prisoners. As for Ou Chen and the others from the Temple of Light, their expressions were a bit dull and stunned. Six Stage Five powerhouses; such a powerful force was totally defeated by Link just like this? Are Stage Five powerhouses so vulnerable now? Xue Linglong, Luo Xingyao, and Zhao Yongkang seemed much more indifferent. When looking at the shocked eyes of everyone around him, Zhao Yongkang even had an inexplicable sense of superiority in his heart. He couldn¡¯t help but roll his eyes¡ªthese people really have no experience! What¡¯s there to be shocked about? ¡°All of you saw that just now, right? Everyone¡¯s domain is different from person to person. Even if they grasp the nomological power of the same element, they will have different characteristics. You guys must have an elementary grasp of the nomological powers as soon as possible.¡± ... At this moment, Link directly used the battle just now to exin the knowledge of domains to Xue Linglong and the others,ying the foundation for them to reach Stage Five as soon as possible. ¡°...¡± Ou Chen and the others werepletely speechless. Those are six Stage Five powerhouses, not Chinese cabbages. Why does it seem like they are of no importance in their eyes? Finally, Ou Chen found a chance to say, ¡°Brother Link, you guys are way too powerful!¡± ¡°En, is there a problem?¡± Link turned his head backward and nced at this Holy Son. Ou Chen instantly shuddered. He smiled brightly and said, ¡°No, there¡¯s no problem. Brother Link, why don¡¯t you join the Temple of Light? I will ask the Temple Master to let you be the Vice-Temple Master.¡± Wu Hao and Tian Mingyuan were all taken aback when they heard this. Vice-Temple Master¡ªthis is a position that is only below one person and above all others in the Temple of Light! Yet, Ou Chen has promised it to someone else just like this? This Holy Son really is a prodigal! But the two of them soon epted it. Thinking about it, with the strength that Link disyed, he might not care much about the position of Vice-Temple Master in the Temple of Light. Linkughed and joked, ¡°It¡¯s not impossible. What are the benefits?¡± Ou Chen instantly became enthusiastic and immediately introduced the Temple of Light¡¯s prospects. The temperament of being the Holy Son and a powerhouse instantly vanished, and Ou Chen totally looked like a scammer. ¡°The Temple of Light will definitely be one of the top factions in the future, and it will always stand on the front line to protect mankind! Brother Link, you won¡¯t be making a mistake joining us...¡± Wu Hao and Tian Mingyuan heard the joking intent in Link¡¯s words, so they didn¡¯t bother to pay attention to their Holy Son. Wu Hao looked at the prisoners on the ground and asked, ¡°Little Brother Link, what do you n to do with these people?¡± Hearing this, Link said, ¡°Oh, I will let them return to their respective factions.¡± Ou Chen and the others frowned; question marks were all over their faces! Could this fierce person be so kind? Who would believe it!? Chapter 180: Kidnap! Boundary Breaking Talisman!

Chapter 180: Kidnap! Boundary Breaking Talisman!

Link ignored Ou Chen, Wu Hao, and the others¡¯ weird looks and asked Zhao Yongkang andpany to confiscate the equipment of those taken captive. The grades of their weapons weren¡¯t bad. After all, they were elite teams from the three major factions, so they were much more well-to-do than ordinary people. Most of them had one or two pieces of Gold-grade equipment. Jiang Wencheng, Zhu Changfeng, and the other Stage Five Star-level powerhouses had more high-quality equipment on them. They also definitely had some rather rare potions, pills, and otherbat supplements. For example, the pill that Wang Hao used in the battle against God Devourer Ant just now. These people were the top powerhouses of humankind at this current period, leaders of the major factions. They had all received a lot of resources and grooming from their respective factions. Although Link and the others might not have a use for these items, they could be used to arm the people in Unfallen City. Weapons, armor, and such items were the easiest to be confiscated. These people were already prisoners, so they could just directly take the spoils from them. However, the pieces of equipment and items ced in the personal backpacks weren¡¯t easy to obtain unless the prisoners were killed and the items dropped. But after Luo Haoyue¡¯s twisted spider shadows appeared and cruelly shredded two Stage Four prisoners to bits and dragged them into the shadows, these prisoners all became obedient and took out the contents in their personal backpacks. After all, no matter how rare the equipment and items were, they weren¡¯t as important as their own lives. Jiang Wencheng, He Lunhai, and the other Stage Five powerhouses were seriously injured and unconscious. After being awakened, they also took out the items in their personal backpacks. Among these items were the [Qi and Blood Pill] used by Wang Hao and the protective talisman used by Zhu Changfeng. These things were rtively rare and could be regarded as the various factions¡¯ special products. Seeing Zhao Yongkang and others tidying up the war spoils, Jiang Wencheng, Zhu Changfeng, and the other four Stage Five powerhouses all secretly heaved a sigh of relief. The other party forcibly collected the spoils, signifying that they didn¡¯t need to worry about their lives for the time being. After all, these things would drop from their personal backpacks if they were killed. If Link really wanted their lives, there wasn¡¯t a need to force the prisoners to take out the items themselves. Since Link didn¡¯t kill them, it either meant that he feared the revenge of the factions behind them or that they still had value. Jiang Wencheng and the others were all smart people. Upon thinking of this, their eyes flickered. It¡¯s good as long as there is still room for discussion! It¡¯s better than losing our lives! Link nced at the confiscated items, smiled, and said nothing. Among these items, one more crucial item was missing¡ªthe [Boundary Breaking Talisman]. These people were still being dishonest. Perceiving Link¡¯s gaze, Jiang Wencheng thought for a while and said, ¡°Sir, if I didn¡¯t guess wrong, you should be Unfallen City¡¯s City Master. We have offended you this time, but as long as you allow us to leave safely, Ancient Martial Alliance will definitely give you a satisfactory reward.¡± The City Master of Unfallen City¡ªthis was Jiang Wencheng¡¯s own spection. After all, the team he sent out to Unfallen City had gone missing. These people in front of him were definitely rted to Unfallen City, and their status was definitely not low. In fact, he guessed right. Link didn¡¯t deny anything; it wasn¡¯t necessary to hide his identity. After all, these things could be easily found out if someone really checked. As for Jiang Wencheng¡¯s remuneration, it was his goal in the first ce. ¡°Okay, I can let you guys go. However, my Unfallen City is preparing to be promoted to a second-level home city, and there¡¯s still a lot of materials missing. Each of you just needs to provide 100 fourth-grade soul crystal cores or rare ores of equivalent value.¡± ¡°A hundred fourth-grade soul crystal cores?!¡± Jiang Wencheng¡¯s eyes opened wide, his eyes almost popping out. He also drew in a breath of cold air at the same time. Zhu Changfeng and the others¡¯ faces also changed! This kid is really asking for too much! Does he really think that fourth-grade soul crystal cores are Chinese cabbages and that they exist in huge quantities? It should be known that the value of fourth-grade soul crystal cores wasn¡¯t low, and it was the top material for building spell formations and equipment. This kind of rare material could only be obtained from the drops of dead Stage Four monsters, and the probability of it dropping was so low that it could make a person cry. Even the major factions didn¡¯t have many of these cores in their reserve. After all, at this stage, there really weren¡¯t many people who could kill Stage Four monsters. Ou Chen, Wu Hao, and the others allughed. Good fellow! It¡¯s no wonder that Link didn¡¯t take their lives, so this was what he was after! There were quite a number of members from the three major factions captured here. If Link counted by headcount and one person required 100 fourth-grade soul crystal cores to be released, the major forces wouldn¡¯t be able to afford it, even if they sold everything they had! Link raised his sword-like eyebrows slightly and nced at Jiang Wencheng and the others obliquely. ¡°Why, is there a problem?¡± Pressure¡ªcreated from killing intent and fierceness¡ªinstantly enveloped Jiang Wencheng andpany. Momentarily, these Stage Five powerhouses all felt a little frightened as if they had seen seas of blood and mountains of corpses appear in front of them! How many people and monsters did this kid kill in order to have such an aura? This aura can even shock us, and we are all one Stage higher than him! This person is a mass killer! Luo Haoyue¡ªwho was at the side¡ªalso turned to look at them. The corners of her mouth rose, revealing a cold smile. Jiang Wencheng and the others¡¯ scalps all went numb. They dared not provoke these two mass killers and shook their heads quickly. ¡°No problem, but City Master Link, fourth-grade soul crystal cores are hard to obtain. You should know that Ancient Martial Alliance doesn¡¯t have a lot of reserves for this item. We are really unable to provide you with so many!¡± Wang Hao said in a low and hoarse voice. ¡°En, then one Stage Five member requires 100 fourth-grade soul crystal cores to be redeemed, and Stage Four members need 30 each. The deadline is one month. If no onees to redeem you guys, then you guys shall just stay here,¡± Link said tly. ¡°This...¡± Jiang Wencheng and the others still wanted to bargain. This price is still too high; this is akin to skinning us clean! Each faction had sent a dozen or so people here, consisting of two Stage Five powerhouses and several Stage Four powerhouses. Totaling up, each faction would need to pay 500 or 600 fourth-grade soul crystal cores! This was simply an astronomical number! This was kidnapping and extortion! Link practically wanted to empty their reserves, break apart their bones, and suck out their marrows! Jiang Wencheng, He Lunhai, and the others were all bleeding in their hearts... The most important thing was that they weren¡¯t sure if their factions would pay such a high price to redeem them. Even if they were redeemed, they would definitely be punished severely. But upon seeing Link¡¯s cold eyes, they still closed their mouths; it was just that their faces were a little green. If they continue to bargain, they might directly die here and now. ¡°Since there are no objections, please contact your respective factionster. As for now, I want to have a good chat with the people from Evil Sect.¡± Link looked at Zhu Changfeng and Han Yingjie, a touch of teasing in his eyes. Zhu Changfeng smiled forcefully and said, ¡°Hehe, we have no objection to your proposal. I will contact the Elder in Evil Sect and send over the things as soon as possible.¡± ¡°Yes, we will raise the crystal cores right away.¡± Han Yingjie also nodded repeatedly. ¡°Don¡¯t pretend; you guys know what I want to say,¡± Link said coldly. Zhu Changfeng and Han Yingjie didn¡¯t continue to act dumb and stopped smiling. ¡°City Lord Link, you want to ask about the [Boundary Breaking Talisman], right?¡± Chapter 181: Spell Formation! Secret History!

Chapter 181: Spell Formation! Secret History!

Link kept quiet; his dark eyes were like two deep ancient wells, just watching Zhu Changfeng and Han Yingjie quietly. When Ou Chen, Wu Hao, and the others heard ¡®Boundary Breaking Talisman,¡¯ these three words, they all cast their eyes over. Being able to break the ruin¡¯s spell barriers forcefully... This talisman was undoubtedly a treasure! There were more than one such ruins on Blue Star. Such ruins were either the legendary gods¡¯ ces of inheritance or the remains of an unknown era. They were like treasures waiting to be opened. And the [Boundary Breaking Talisman] was a key to open these treasures; it was something that all major factions would desire to have! Momentarily, everyone¡¯s eyes gathered like a spotlight on Zhu Changfeng and the other Evil Sect members. Han Yingjie¡¯s eyes were obscure, and he said in a deep voice, ¡°The [Boundary Breaking Talisman] is used to open the ruin. Without the Boundary [Breaking Talisman], you guys can¡¯t enter this ruin either, City Master Link. A lot of energy is required to activate the [Boundary Breaking Talisman], and it¡¯s difficult for even a Stage Six Bright Moon-rank powerhouse to sustain the consumption. ¡°Only by using the formation weid out will you be able to use the [Breaking Talisman] to open the ruin. And right now, only our Evil Sect has knowledge of the activation method. Moreover, there are still unknown risks in the ruin. Since both of us havemon interests, how about we cooperate together?¡± When his words justnded, Zhu Changfeng instantly said, ¡°That¡¯s exactly the case. Without the method to activate the formation, you won¡¯t be able to use it even if you kill us and obtain the [Boundary Breaking Talisman] from our drops.¡± ¡°City Master Link, the opportunity is right in front of you. Cooperate, and both of our parties will benefit. Divided, both sides will make a loss. I think you won¡¯t refuse to cooperate, right? As for the energy needed to open the ruins... City Master Link, you probably don¡¯tck the base for the spell formation.¡± Zhu Changfeng paused and nced at the Martial God Hall and Ancient Martial Alliance prisoners, smiling meaningfully. As long as a part of these prisoners were thrown into the spell formation they had previously drawn, there would be enough energy to activate the [Boundary Breaking Talisman]. Wang Hao, He Lunhai, and the others naturally knew what Zhu Changfeng meant. Their expressions changed instantly, and they red at Zhu Changfeng. ¡°Zhu Changfeng, what do you mean by this?¡± ¡°We established a covenant previously. Do you want to openly abolish the covenant and be an enemy of the factions behind us?¡± ¡°You are making two big enemies for Evil Sect by doing this! Can you bear the consequences? Zhu Changfeng, you have to think about this carefully!¡± ... The prisoners kept shouting, but Zhu Changfeng was at ease and evenughed. ¡°Haha, covenant? Stop joking! That thing is a joke in the first ce; who will care about it? As for making enemies, wait until you guys survive this predicament first before talking about it!¡± After ridiculing Wang Hao and the others, Zhu Changfeng looked at Link again and asked, ¡°How about it? Have you decided, City Master Link? Of course, if City Master Link is unwilling to share the ruin with us, we are also willing to activate the spell formation and hand over the [Boundary Breaking Talisman to you so that you can open the ruin. This is as long as you promise to let us go.¡± Ou Chen curled his lips and asked, ¡°You guys are so kind?¡± ¡°How can you know if you don¡¯t try?¡± Han Yingjie grinned. If it were someone else other than Link, the person might have agreed. After all, the method of using the [Boundary Breaking Talisman] was in the Evil Sect¡¯s hands. But Link was different. The real key to the ruin was quietly lying in his personal backpack at this moment. He could open the ruin by himself, so he naturally wasn¡¯t concerned with the method that the Evil Sect talked about. His mind flickering, Link still decided to gather some information first and see how many secrets these big factions had. Thus, he solemnly said, ¡°Tell me about your understanding of this ruin.¡± ¡°En?¡± Zhu Changfeng and the others were slightly taken aback when they heard this. This topic has changed too quickly, right? Link hasn¡¯t told us if he wanted to cooperate or not! But they were currently all prisoners now, so they could only hold theseints in their stomachs. ¡°Hurry up and talk. If not, my de won¡¯t be polite with you guys.¡± Zhao Yongkang drew out a long dark de and spoke with a cold voice, the de shining with a cold light. His life was in the hands of others now. Thus, Zhu Changfeng didn¡¯t dare to procrastinate; he quickly said, ¡°The location of this ruin was discovered by a high-level member of Evil Sect in an ancient scroll that was passed down from long ago. ording to Evil Sect¡¯s ancient records, Blue Star was supposed to be an extremely powerful, but it suffered huge, world destruction-level catastrophes more than once.¡± ¡°It¡¯s like reincarnation, happening again and again. Every time a civilization develops to prosperity, it will usher in destruction. The relics are the traces and seeds left by these civilizations annihted in the dust of history. As for what actually exists in the ruin, we don¡¯t know either. However, it may be rted to some legendary ancient civilizations. For example, the perished Antis, Babylon, and so on.¡± Upon hearing this, Link nced at Jiang Wencheng, He Lunhai, and the others. He Lunhai said solemnly, ¡°We only know so much too. Only when we go inside can we know what¡¯s actually in the ruin. In addition, the descent of the apocalypse and the opening of space cracks signifies that the under our feet is recovering!¡± ¡°Recovering?¡± Zhao Yongkang repeated, chewing the meaning of the sentence. ¡°Yes, it¡¯s recovering!¡± He Lunhai affirmed, ¡°We, who lived in reinforced concrete cities in the past¡ªwould we have ever thought that we would gain extraordinary abilities? We are witnessing myths and creating myths. What¡¯s more, Martial God Hall believes that the celestials in the legends are powerful [Doomsday Online] yers too!¡± Link smiled andmented, ¡°This is an interesting spection.¡± Tian Mingyuan saw that Link seemed to be very interested in the ssics and secrets handed down, so he said, ¡°City Master Link, in fact, there are some ssics handed down in the Temple of Light as well. If you are interested, you can go to the Temple of Light and take a look. I believe the Temple Master will be very wee.¡± Ou Chen¡¯s eyes lit up suddenly; he then smiled and said, ¡°That¡¯s right! Brother Link, if youe to Bright Sun City, we will definitely treat you with hospitality!¡± Saying so, Ou Chen even gave Tian Mingyuan a meaningful look. The older generation is indeed more experienced! It didn¡¯t ur to Ou Chen to use the handed-down ssics to tempt Link to join them. Tian Mingyuan didn¡¯t understand the expression in Ou Chen¡¯s eyes; he only felt that the Holy Son might be thinking of some bad idea again. ¡°Well, it looks like I will indeed need to trouble you guys.¡± Link nodded. ¡°City Master Link, what about the matter regarding the spell formation and cooperation?¡± Zhu Changfeng asked again. A gleam of light shed in Link¡¯s eyes. The people from Evil Sect mentioned the spell formation multiple times, which made him feel that this matter wasn¡¯t that simple. ¡°You seem to be very concerned about that spell formation? Old Zhao, go and destroy that spell formation!¡± ¡°Yes, Lord.¡± Zhao Yongkang nodded and turned to leave. At this moment, a sharp shout suddenly sounded. ¡°No!¡± A hideous look shed across Zhu Changfeng¡¯s face. After noticing that everyone was gazing at him, he immediately put away his emotions and said, ¡°If you destroy the formation, none of us will be able to gain anything. Why do such a thing?¡± ¡°What if I don¡¯t need the spell formation at all?¡± Link sneered. The atmosphere here instantly turned solemn! Chapter 182: Countermeasure! Peak Stage Five!

Chapter 182: Countermeasure! Peak Stage Five!

¡°Don¡¯t need the spell formation...¡± Zhu Changfeng¡¯s eyes narrowed. ¡°Could it be that City Master Link holds other means of opening the historical ruin?¡± Jiang Wencheng, Wang Hao, Ou Chen, and the others directed their gazes toward Link. Their eyes shed, each with their own guesses in their hearts. Could it be that the key to the historical ruin is in this City Master Link¡¯s hands? Link didn¡¯t care about those gazes at all; he only stared at Zhu Changfeng. ¡°Whether or not I can open the historical ruin has nothing to do with you people. However, I¡¯m afraid that spell formation isn¡¯t that simple, is it?¡± As his voice fell, Zhu Changfeng and Han Yingjie¡¯s countenances constantly changed as if their weakness had been caught. ¡°City Master Link, if you don¡¯t destroy the spell formation, there will still be room for negotiation between us... If you insist on doing so, I¡¯m afraid you will regret it by then!¡± Han Yingjie¡¯s expression was clouded as he threatened Link¡ªfierce in manner but faint in heart. Link¡¯s eyebrows arched slightly. These two people... don¡¯t have the slightest awareness of being captives. He couldn¡¯t be bothered to say anything more. Instead, he headed out of the campsite with Zhao Yongkang and the others. The spell formation that Evil Sect arrayed should be in the Forest of Darkness. It shouldn¡¯t be too far. Seeing Link turn around, Han Yingjie and Zhu Changfeng met eyes. Their expressions turned sinister, and frightening killing intent burst out from them. Han Yingjie¡¯s limbs were bound byrge amounts of spider silk, so he was unable to break free. He opened his mouth, and a streak of icy force condensed into a sharp de and shot out, slicing toward Link¡¯s head. The sound of air being broken came striking. Link didn¡¯t even turn back; he merely shook his sleeve lightly. The [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique] was instantlyunched! Streaks of swift and fierce sword energy instantly emerged from the void and surrounded Link! Having used [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique] many times, Link¡¯s grasp of swordy had already reached a height difficult for an ordinary person to reach. The surging sword energy was no longer bound to the sword; it moved in ordance with Link¡¯s intentions instead. In an instant, the icy de that came shooting was crushed by the sword energy! The tempestuous sword energy then kept going and directly blew up Han Yingjie¡¯s entire head! Han Yingjie dared spit at Link; wasn¡¯t this using an unconventional method to seek his doom? Fresh blood mixed with brains sttered in all directions; a good amount stained Zhu Changfeng¡¯s face as well. The blood was still warm, and the strong metallic scent rushed into his nose... Zhu Changfeng was rather stunned presently. There was indeed a problem with that spell formation! In reality, Han Yingjie and himself weren¡¯t the powerhouses that Evil Sect dispatched. There was also one powerhouse at Stage Five, Level 10, about to break through to Stage Six. That spell formation seemed to be used for opening the historical, but it was actually resources prepared for that powerhouse¡¯s breakthrough to Stage Six. Earlier, they were actually intentionally steering things. This was to make Link notice the problems with the spell formation and spur the Evil Sect¡¯s powerhouse hiding there into striking. In the end, Han Yingjie was too into the show and didn¡¯t grasp his limits well. His blood was spilled then and there... This made Zhu Changfeng¡¯s current feelings a littleplicated... Zhu Changfeng nced at Link¡¯s back view and thought inwardly, In any case, the n... should¡¯ve seeded! Elder Zheng, who is about to break through to Stage Six, should¡ªno, he certainly will be able to kill this fellow and seize the historical ruin! Zhu Changfeng shot a look at Jiang Wencheng and the few others who were captured and couldn¡¯t help revealing a strange smile. The first tough might not be the final winners. My Evil Sect will be the ones who truly get thestugh! As he was in thought, his face suddenly suffered a kick. Ou Chen lifted his foot, gave Zhu Changfeng a side nce, and said with slight disdain, ¡°This fellow is smiling so foolishly. It cannot be that he has suffered an emotional shock, right?¡± Wu Hao and Tian Mingyuan silently looked away, pretending that they hadn¡¯t seen that. ... In the center of the Forest of Darkness. Beside the pit sketched with an array formation and mysterious incantations, a figure sat cross-legged in the distorted forest. He was Evil Sect¡¯s Zheng Jinshang, a top powerhouse about to break through to Stage Six. Dressed in wide gray robes, he seemed to be one with the forest. The aura all around him had beenpletely restrained by him. At first nce, it was difficult to notice Zheng Jinshang¡¯s existence. All of a sudden, he opened his eyes, seeming to have sensed something as a hint of vignce shed across his face. ¡°Someone is here; it¡¯s an unfamiliar aura! Has Zhu Changfeng andpany met with a mishap?¡± Previously, Zhu Changfeng secretly crushed themunication talisman and attracted Han Yingjie and the others. Zheng Jinshang was aware of this too, but he was Evil Sect¡¯s hidden countermeasure. Thus, he didn¡¯t go forth to support them. Now that he was suddenly sensing an unfamiliar aurae close, he couldn¡¯t help the sprouting of some unpleasant associations in his heart. Zheng Jinshang did not rush to strike; instead, he restrained his aura even more, bing like a section of inconspicuous deadwood. At the same, the footsteps of Link¡ªwho was approaching the spell formation¡ªpaused. His mental strength had the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep] and his title¡¯s blessings. Hence, it far exceeded that of yers at the same level; his senses were also more acute and powerful. Moments before, he vaguely sensed that someone was watching them, and a few hints of alertness rose in his heart. ¡°Interesting.¡± A speck of contemtion shed through Link¡¯s eyes; his footsteps didn¡¯t stop as he continued to move forward. Earlier, he had felt that Zhu Changfeng and Han Yingjie were being too intentional. So he knew that there had to be a significant problem with that spell formation. It now seemed that the Evil Sect had indeed left a countermeasure here... It wasn¡¯t just Link. Luo Haoyue¡ªwho hade along¡ªalso sensed it, and her gaze became colder. Link gave her a look, signaling Luo Haoyue not to act rashly and alert the enemy. Very soon, the party arrived beside the pit. It was all [Doomsday Online] yers inside the pit. They covered the area, lying in all directions. However, their chests were still rising and falling; they were fine for now. This spell formation wouldn¡¯t only extract the magic within their bodies; vitality was also a part of it. This was also the reason why Zhu Changfeng andpany hadn¡¯t killed them. Zhao Yongkang jumped into the pit, about to awaken those yers. Right then, an inexplicable force swept across the area, and a sudden change struck! The soil beneath Zhao Yongkang¡¯s feet swiftly turned into a mire. Palms covered in mud reached out from the mire and went for his ankles! ¡°This is... a domain!¡± Zhao Yongkang frowned and shouted. He was, after all, someone who had seen many great spectacles with Link. He instantly realized something was amiss, and he wasn¡¯t very flustered. Zhao Yongkang instantly swung the longsword in his hands and shed at those mud palms that came grabbing at him. The jet-ck sword ray shed through, and the palms were broken, turning back into mud. Lines of dense spider silk also came shooting at this point; they fastened around Zhao Yongkang¡¯s arms and brought him out of that mire. Beside the pit was an area of ground covered in spider silk. Luo Haoyue had clearlyunched her own domain as well and didn¡¯t allow the area to be affected by the enemy¡¯s domain. A slightly hoarse voice sounded from the forest. ¡°A Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse, and the rest are all Stage Fours. Your capabilities aren¡¯t too bad, but you aren¡¯t a match for me yet! What exactly happened at the campsite? Which faction do you people belong to? If you do not confess, all of you shall die here!¡± As the words fell, a vast aura instantly shot to the skies. Ill winds surged, making one fearful! That was the aura of a peak Stage Five existence¡ªonly a step away from a Stage Six Bright Moon-rank powerhouse! Chapter 183: Summoner! Black-haired Ancient Corpse!

Chapter 183: Summoner! ck-haired Ancient Corpse!

¡°The aura of a peak Stage Five existence! This spell formation was probably prepared by Evil Sect for his advancement to Stage Six!¡± Xue Linglong¡¯s pretty face was frosty as she shouted coldly. She didn¡¯t respond to Zheng Jinshang¡¯s question and only made her own guess about the spell formation. The aberrated long spear was gripped in her hand, showing her valiant and heroic bearing. Luo Xingyao brought out her longbow, and brilliant starlight gathered toward her jade-white palms, about to condense into arrows. In contrast, Link and Luo Haoyue still appeared peaceful, even a little indifferent. A peak Stage Five [Doomsday Online] yer was perhaps an unmatchable existence that others needed to look up to, but these two people really didn¡¯t take him to heart. Xue Linglong andpany actually weren¡¯t too nervous as well. After all, they had personally witnessed the destruction of a Sage¡¯s spiritual imprint. The enemy before their eyes could merely be considered a small fry¡ªno, medium whenpared to the blood shadow... Seeing that Link andpany maintainedposed looks without the slightest fluster, Zheng Jinshang started frowning instead as he muttered inwardly. Are these fellows being emboldened by the support they have? However, the pressing matter is to confirm the situation on Zhu Changfeng¡¯s side; I will first capture one person and rify things. After Zheng Jinshang leaped out from the forest, he pushed his palm out without hesitation and released his skill. His gray robes pped as streaks of gray light gathered in the empty air. Finally, they condensed into arge gray hand that came grabbing at Link! Thisrge hand broke through the air toe striking, bringing gusts of ill wind; indistinct wailing was even apanying it. The means that the majority of Evil Sect¡¯s powerhouses possessed tended to be dark, stressing on eeriness and sinisterness. Xue Linglong and the others also acted. The long, jet-ck spear thrust out, and streaks of frosty powers spread with it. This long spear was quitepatible with Xue Linglong¡¯s profession. It could boost the might of her skills. A huge dragon condensed from frost appeared in the air abruptly; it went ripping into therge gray hand with its teeth bared! ¡°Seven Stars Broken Moon!¡± With a delicate from Luo Xingyao, the Big Dipper illusion vaguely emerged before her. Endless starlight scattered down¡ªmysterious and vast! In the next instant, those waves of starlight condensed into arrows and shot out! Zhao Yongkang also swung his longsword, and a pitch-ck sword ray immediately charged into the skies! A roar exploded in the area at once! In the distance, Ou Chen andpany¡ªwho were at the campsite¡ªall sensed something and turned to look in the direction where Link and party had headed to. ¡°A battle has urred on that side! It¡¯s the aura of a peak Stage Five existence; there is indeed something wrong with Evil Sect¡¯s spell formation!¡± The countenances of Ou Chen, Wu Hao, and more turned cold instantly. Yet, Zhu Changfeng wore a gloating look when he saw their misfortune. He had waited until this happened at longst! It was his turn to stand with his head high! When Elder Zheng strikes, he will certainly be able to reverse the situation! ¡°Hmph! That¡¯s right, my Evil Sect¡¯s Elder Zheng has already reached Stage Five, Level 10. With a breakthrough, he will be a Stage Six Bright Moon-rank powerhouse! It is totally impossible for that Link to be his match; my Evil Sect is the final winner!¡± ¡°Noisy!¡± Ou Chen had a hostile look and delivered another kick to Zhu Changfeng¡¯s face, directly giving a strong blow so that Zhu Changfeng couldn¡¯t speak anymore. ¡°Shall we go support Brother Link?¡± Wu Hao suggested with a frown. Tian Mingyuan revealed a pondering expression and said slowly, ¡°Is there a need to? Why do I feel that even a peak Stage Five existence wouldn¡¯t be Little Brother Link¡¯s match?¡± It was truly because Link¡¯s earlier suppression of six Stage Five powerhouses had given them a great shock, so he subconsciously developed such a judgment. In usual times, encountering a peak Stage Five existence would¡¯ve long had them acting as if a formidable enemy was upon them. ¡°We should still go take a look. Brother Link¡¯s capabilities might be strong, but we mustn¡¯t let down our guard in all things!¡± Wu Hao boomed. Ou Chen also nodded. ¡°Then, I¡¯ll lead people to go support Brother Link. These captives cannot be left unguarded as well. Elder Wu, Elder Tian, both of you can stay behind with Brother Link¡¯s God Devourer Ant to watch the captives.¡± Both Elder Wu and Elder Tian nodded. Ou Chen took several Stage Four Temple of Light powerhouses and rushed in the direction where the battlemotion wasing from. ... At the same time. In the center of the Forest of Darkness. After therge gray palm that Zheng Jinshang condensed was bombarded by Xue Linglong and the others¡¯ skills, it merely turned a few hints duller; its might remained terrifying! There was ultimately a huge chasm between Stage Four yers and Stage Five yers! ¡°Overconfident!¡± Zheng Jinshang¡¯s expression was full of provocation. Mere Stage Four yers striking at me? Virtuallyedic! However, he soon couldn¡¯tugh anymore! With a turn of Link¡¯s palm, the [King¡¯s Sword instantly] appeared in his hand! Link¡¯s entire demeanor became sharp the moment he gripped the longsword. A streak of sword intent surged into the sky and tore the clouds in the sky! It was as if a ferocious beast in the abyss had abruptly opened its eyes; it also seemed as though a massive dozing dragon had suddenly swung its ws! Chaos struck the universe! A piercing sword ray¡ªshrouding the tide-like sword energy¡ªgushed out tempestuously! That huge gray palmsted less than a second in front of the sword ray before it cracked at every inch and turned into nothingness. F*ck! The corners of Zheng Jinshang¡¯s eyes twitched uncontrobly. His entire person was rooted to the same spot! This is a Stage Four [Doomsday Online] yer? A Stage Four [Doomsday Online] yer can blow up my attack with a casual strike? How is this possible? Have I sensed wrongly!? Zheng Jinshang hurriedly sensed Link again, but the aura radiating from Link¡¯s body truly hadn¡¯t entered Stage Five. Link was undoubtedly at Stage Four! This made Zheng Jinshang even more shocked, so much so that a few hints of chill even rose in his heart. He really didn¡¯t expect for a p in the face toe so quickly! This rascal isn¡¯t simple! Zheng Jinshang shed all of the underestimations and became serious. He didn¡¯t hesitate as he swiftly chanted the incantation and released his skill! ¡°There are four directions in the heavens; there are four poles on earth; the Nether Lands are disorderly; the Rasho path[1]opens...¡± Zheng Jinshang tossed a talisman, and it burned upon meeting the wind. Along with the incantation that Zheng Jinshang chanted, waves of chilly energy in the air constantly gathered toward the talisman. Soon, the talisman was no more. The waves of energy condensed into an ancient bronze door that stood in the mire. This door was extremely real and appeared to be icy yet antique. It was covered in mottled verdigris and runes... Creak! A sound rang. A shaggy ck palm emerged from within the door and slowly opened a gap in it! Gusts of ill wind surged out from the door as if theherworld was behind it! Just the chilly winds that gushed out from the door were enough to make the low-level [Doomsday Online] yers stiff¡ªtheypletely lost their mobility. The door that slowly opened even set off palpitations in Xue Linglong andpany¡¯s hearts. It was as if a certain great terror hid behind the door! Multiple breathster, the door opened. However, Zhao Yongkang and the rest felt as if they had waited for an endless period that seemed like a lifetime. An ancient corpse covered in ck hair appeared in everyone¡¯s sights! The ancient corpse¡¯s face had decayed. The spots where its eyeballs should¡¯ve been were two pitch-ck holes, looking as if they sought to devour everyone¡¯s souls! Its mouth opened, and yellow fangs turned out, constantly dripping with foul saliva. A hidden profession among Summoners... Is his special trait the ability to summon theseher creatures? Link wondered in his heart. His wrist danced once more, and a streak of sword energy immediately shot out! [1] Rash¨­mon was subsequently used to refer to the border gates between the mortal world and hell Chapter 184: Suppression! Invincible Against All Stage Six and Below!

Chapter 184: Suppression! Invincible Against All Stage Six and Below!

Zheng Jinshang panted heavily, his aura seeming slightly weaker. This summoning was evidently rather draining. Even he¡ªwho had reached peak Stage Five¡ªfound it taxing. However, all of this was worth it. This ancienther corpse was extremely tyrannical; it was akin to a Stage Six Bright Moon-rank monster, enough to kill off this group of people and stabilize the situation for him! A hint of savageness shed across Zheng Jinshang¡¯s face. When he returned to his senses, he saw a stream of brilliant sword glow tear through the air and sh right toward the ancient corpse. ¡°Haha,ughable!¡± He couldn¡¯t help breaking into a hideous grin. These fellows before me are truly overconfident! ¡°This ancienther corpse is an extremely powerful creature to begin with. Its body is nurtured with Yin energy, and its strength is enough to rival a Stage Six existence. The attack of a Stage Four being won¡¯t even be able to break through its defense at all!¡± Amidst the sneer, the sword ray that Link swung out struck the ancient corpse, and a muffled thud instantly sounded. It sounded like a wooden club beating on bedding. The figure of the hideous ancient corpse covered in ck hair took several steps back before it stopped. The sword glow had left a light mark on its body; rotting flesh turned out, with purplish-ck blood trickling from it. This injury wasn¡¯t considered a severe one. But just this one wound had already caused Zheng Jinshang¡¯s gaze to change. The heart in his chest even dropped for a moment; he was rather shocked! One had to know that the ancienther corpse¡¯s defense was something that even he¡ªa peak Stage Five existence¡ªfound difficult to break through! A Stage Four yer was actually able to leave a wound on the ancient corpse... Zheng Jinshang almost thought that he was seeing an illusion! How could he not feel surprised in his heart? Link¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly, and he stared at the ancient corpse¡ªwhich had ck Yin energy lingering around it. His earlier strike originally ought to cause a more severe injury, but the majority of its force had been stripped away. It was just likending a punch on cotton; the force that the ancient corpse ultimately bore was much less. Is it the ck Yin energy that is helping the ancient corpse strip the strength? Link already had some guesses in his heart. But no matter how good the ancient corpse was at stripping power, if Link were to strike with his all... With his powerful attribute screen, it would be enough to blow the other party up! Wounded by a strike, the damage might not be great, but it was extremely insulting. It further incited the ancient corpse¡¯s ferociousness! Deep inside its ck hollow eye sockets, there seemed to be crimson glows lighting up! Roar! The ancient corpse¡¯s snarl shook the forest. White air sts burst out; the killing intent was at full strength! The snarls even carried the effect of mental impact; it caused Xue Linglong and the others¡¯ faces to turn pale and their gazes to turn nk. Right then, the ck-haired ancient corpse turned into a ck shadow. Enveloping an extremely nauseating foul wind, it pounced directly toward Link! Link had no intention of fighting with this monster; there really was no need to. The [Holy Spirit Ne] on his neck bloomed with radiance, and the [Holy Sword of the Light] skill was instantlyunched! The [King¡¯s Sword] danced, drawing out a quick and fierce sword arc. Streaks of light power gathered, and a splendid glow bloomed; in an instant, white light enveloped the world! In the emptiness, pure holy light seemed to be scattering down. A huge golden sword¡ªwhich was several feet long¡ªsuddenly appeared. Its might was vast, and a sacred aura shook the ce as if it were a primordial divine punishment seeking to quell all evil and bewilderment! The holy aura caused the ancient corpse¡¯s body¡ªwhich came pouncing¡ªto tremble. It paused as if it had encountered its natural enemy; it was fearful! The pupils of Zheng Jinshang¡ªwho was slightly in the distance contracted greatly; shock and horror were written all over his face. It wasn¡¯t just this holy sword¡¯s might that was terrifying; most importantly, his ancienther corpse was inherently countered by this holy light¡¯s attributes! Zheng Jinshang¡¯s heart pounded; a chill had already surged from his tailbone to the top of his skull! Link took all of the ancient corpse and Zheng Jinshang¡¯s reactions in as the [King¡¯s Sword] rampantlynded! Sword fall! The massive holy sword simrly shed down with the same thundering power! The blinding white light reflected in everyone¡¯s eyes. The might of this strike caused the universe to turn dull! Light damage that was 1,000% of Link¡¯s intelligence attribute... This was undoubtedly a frightening skill to the ancienther corpse! Facing the falling holy sword, the fierce light in the ancient corpse¡¯s eye sockets trembled unceasingly. It was extremely restless, like a convict awaiting their final judgment! Roar! The ck-haired ancient corpse let out another snarl, but there was clearly insufficient power. It sounded a little flustered, and it was an empty show of strength. The ck mist around the ancient corpse surged madly, instantly turning into a huge shield that stood before him. Rumble! Explosions sounded without ceasing! The massive shield formed by the ck mist actually cracked at every inch! The golden holy sword was like a hot knife slicing through butter¡ªthe huge ck shield swiftly copsed. The sword was totally difficult to resist! The ck-haired ancient corpse was about to retreat quickly, but the holy sword had alreadynded on his body; he could only let out a piteous shriek! Rotting flesh was constantly crushed by the holy sword¡¯s sword energy. Before purplish-ck corpse blood could flow, it had already evaporated and turned into nothingness. ¡°No!¡± As the summoner, Zheng Jinshang also let out an agonizing wail. For the sake of convenient maniption, a portion of his consciousness had adhered to the ancient corpse. Presently, this portion of consciousness was swiftly being worn away as if it were being dismembered! Boom! Amidst the stifled noise, a ck shadow fell to the ground hard! It was the ck-haired ancient corpse. Presently, it was long scarred and battered like a torn gunny sack. There were still holy me wounds around its body; it was constantly being burned. Its previous ferocity had long vanished. Zheng Jinshang couldn¡¯t care for the piercing pain in his head. He hurriedly dashed toward the ancient corpse, wanting to employ his skills to do some salvaging or allow the ancient corpse to return to the Nether Lands and be nurtured with Yin energy. But by the time he arrived, only remains of the ancient corpse were left on the ground¡ªit couldn¡¯t be manipted anymore! Zheng Jinshang¡¯s eyes were full of resentment; he gritted his teeth so hard that they rattled. This was a powerful ancient corpse that he had spent innumerable resources to cultivate, and it was the core of hisbat ability. Now, everything was ruined! Zheng Jinshang¡¯s eyes were red, fixed on Link like a wild beast on the verge of despair. ¡°Return me my ancient corpse! It¡¯s absolutely irreconcble between us!¡± Link¡¯s countenance remained indifferent as he only said one word, ¡°Noisy.¡± Zheng Jinshang¡¯s expression stiffened, and the rage in his heart red! He didn¡¯t catch the slightest joy from defeating the ancient corpse and humiliation toward him in Link¡¯s words; there was only undisguised disregard! It was as if Link had always thought nothing of him; he didn¡¯t have the slightest sense of presence! This virtually triggered Zheng Jinshang such that he almost went mad. It made him even more miserable and indignant than having insults hurled at him! ¡°Kill! Kill... Kill you!¡± Zheng Jinshang roared lowly. He pulled out talismans from his bosom and tossed them toward the spell formation. Xue Linglong and the others were instantly on the alert. He wants to activate the spell formation forcefully! Originally, this spell formation had been prepared for Zheng Jinshang¡¯s breakthrough to Stage Six. By usingrge numbers of high-level yers as the formation¡¯s foundation, not only could it allow Zheng Jinshang to break through the bottleneck, but he could even possess a tyrannical corpse army! Right now, the number of [Doomsday Online] yers inside the formation was still insufficient, but Zheng Jinshang could no longer care for that much. He desperately wanted to take off the head of that man in white! Obscure chanting sounded; the talismans that Zheng Jinshang tossed turned into blood-red runes and blended into the spell formation. A strange aura then rippled outward! ¡°We cannot let him activate the spell formation!¡± Zhao Yongkang¡¯s brows were tightly knitted; his eyes were filled with apprehension! Chapter 185: Warm Up is over! Opening of the Ruins!

Chapter 185: Warm Up is over! Opening of the Ruins!

Anyone could see that chaos would break out if Zheng Jinshang sessfully activated the formation! It was likely that he wanted to break through to Stage Six Bright Moon-rank forcibly! Xue Linglong, Luo Xingyao, and Zhao Yongkang all attacked Zheng Jinshang without hesitation. Brilliant skill light continued to bloom, and several attacks sted toward him! But the three of them weren¡¯t Link, after all. Due to the huge difference in their levels, their attacks were all blocked by a blood-colored film of light that suddenly appeared in front of Zheng Jinshang. Zheng Jinshang waved talismans and chanted incantations non-stop within the film of light, and the formation runes gradually lit up with blood-red light! Link¡¯s expression remained indifferent. He didn¡¯t give Zheng Jinshang the opportunity to activate the formation or the chance to struggle. The next moment, silver light glowed from the [Ring of Teleportation] in Link¡¯s hand. [Instant Teleport] was activated; his figure disappeared from where it was. When he appeared again, he wasn¡¯t far from Zheng Jinshang. The two of them looked at each other, separated by the blood-colored film of light. Zheng Jinshang¡¯s expression instantly became fearful. He obviously didn¡¯t expect Link to be able to cross the domain barrier and appear in front of him in the blink of an eye! He waspletely caught off-guard! Zheng Jinshang only felt frightened; his scalp was numb as if he were struck by lightning! The [King¡¯s Sword] appeared once again, and the sharp de cut a golden arc in the air! [Spring and Autumn Sword Technique] activated! Harsh sword energy surged. A stream of sword glow resembling a long river of sword energy rushed toward Zheng Jinshang. Cracks instantly began to appear on the blood-colored film of light, which was originally solid as gold. The cracks were like a spider web as they continued to expand! Zheng Jinshang also quickly responded by throwing out different talismans. These talismans were the same protective talismans that Zhu Changfeng had used earlier. Each one was equivalent to a protective skill and was quite precious. At this moment, Zheng Jinshang threw them out as if they weren¡¯t worth anything. Four talismans spontaneouslybusted one after another; the energy intertwined and turned into four giant shields in front of him,yer afteryer! But at this moment, the [King¡¯s Sword]¡¯s aura suddenly changed, swirling out a death aura! ck power of death converged on the de; it was the power of silence that all beings feared! [Death Judgment]! The sky darkened in a matter of moments, and a vast and great figure seemed to have emerged behind Link! The figure¡ªdressed in a broad ck robe with a huge hood to hide its face¡ªheld a great silver scythe, shining with a palpitating cold light! The moment it appeared, heaven and earth shook as if in fear. This figure seemed to be the end of all things¡ªeternal silence! The great silver scythe swung out with the [King¡¯s Sword] as a dense death aura filled the ce. Zheng Jinshang¡ªwho was hiding behind the barrier¡ªdidn¡¯t feel the slightest sense of security. Instead, he felt suffocated. His body was cold; it was as though he had fallen into an ice cave. He felt the aura of death. It was very different from the aura he felt from the light power when Link killed the ancienther corpse. How is this possible? Zheng Jinshang¡¯s heart shook wildly, and his face twisted in disbelief! What kind of a terrifying existence have I provoked that caused the power of two opposing attributes to appear? Something like this was unheard of! It should be known that a yer would have to be extremely lucky in order to awaken a special attribute. This kid in front of him was a monster! Zheng Jinshang didn¡¯t have the slightest thought of resistance. His previous resentment and anger were totally extinguished as if a pot of cold water was poured over his head! At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind: Run! I want to escape from here! But as soon as Zheng Jinshang moved, the deathly sword broke and crumbled the defensive barriers in front of him. The palpitating sword light targeted him like the God of Death¡¯s gaze! Crack! It sounded like silk being ripped apart! The sword energy pierced through Zheng Jinshang¡¯s head, and his body was in a disastrous state. It flew backward into the distance like a broken sack. The death energy remaining in his body took away every bit of vitality forcefully. In just a few breaths, Zheng Jinshang¡¯s corpse became withered and decayed as if he had been dead for several years! Reaping life and bringing about eternal silence¡ªthis was [Death Judgement]! The shadow behind Link disappeared, and peace was restored to the ce once again. This sword didn¡¯t trigger the instant death effect, but as a summoner with the [Exorcist] hidden profession, Zheng Jinshang wasn¡¯t known for his physical strength. Link¡¯s strong attributes¡ªcoupled with the skill effects¡ªwere enough for a one-hit kill on such a physically weak profession! Link put away the [King¡¯s Sword] and turned his head to look in the direction of the camp, where the entrance to the ruin was! After the warm-up, it was time to enter the ruin! Link was nning to break through to Stage Five as soon as possible and build his own domain. Hence, he hoped that this ruin¡ªwhich was coveted by the major factions¡ªwouldn¡¯t let him down. As Link was lost in his thoughts, several figures suddenly scurried out of the forest. It was Ou Chen and a few Temple of Light yers. They looked at the aftermath of the battle, slightly stunned. ¡°Didn¡¯t they say there was a terrifying powerhouse at the peak of Stage Five? Where is everyone?¡± ¡°Has he been killed?!¡± Zhao Yongkang pondered for a moment before nodding. ¡°That¡¯s right; our City Master has killed him!¡± He was slightly taken aback. The sword containing the dense death aura was terrifyingly powerful. At that moment, Link seemed to have transformed into a god that dominated life and death, leaving the others in awe. Upon Hearing Zhao Yongkang¡¯s response, a few Temple of Light members¡¯ expressions becameplex. Some were shocked, some were in a trance, and most were appalled! What kind of terrifyingbat power did one have to possess to kill a powerhouse at the peak of Stage Five in such a short moment? It would be difficult for another powerhouse at the peak of Stage Five, and even a Stage Six Bright Moon-rank powerhouse, to do so! One had to know that killing and defeating were two different matters! How could a powerhouse at the peak of Stage Five not have some tricks up their sleeves? A powerhouse at Stage Four, Level 8 killed another powerhouse at Stage Five, Level 10. It was a big cross-level kill! City Master Link was indeed terrifyingly powerful! They were Stage Four [Doomsday Online] yers. But in this case,parisons were odious. A few Temple of Light members even began to feel guilty. Being the same level as City Master Link, they felt like they had disgraced other Stage Four yers and City Master Link... Ou Chen was also momentarily stunned, but he already knew how powerful Link was, or rather, he was numb to such blows. Hence, he soon recovered. Laughing, Ou Chen said, ¡°This is how powerful Link is, awesome!¡± But in his heart: Damn, I made another trip for nothing. Even a Stage Five, Level 10 existence was no match for Brother Link! Can I still catch up? Link couldn¡¯t be bothered by these people¡¯s thoughts. He let them wrap up the scene. Some of those [Doomsday Online] yers¡ªwho were captured to act as the formation¡¯s foundation¡ªwere previously caught in the enemy¡¯s domain. They were affected by it and needed to be rescued immediately. Ou Chen and the others immediately became busy... Chapter 186: A Problem with the Ruins!

Chapter 186: A Problem with the Ruins!

The Temple of Light yers that were priests waved their staffs non-stop, casting healing spells on the rescued [Doomsday Online] yers. As Zheng Jinshang¡¯s domain turned the ground into a silt swamp, many people were half-underground at this moment and needed to be dug out. They were quite embarrassed. From time to time, someone would exim out loud. These people would be someone who had lost consciousness and was awakened by the excavation. There were also quite a few misunderstandings. ¡°Damn! Why have I been buried? Evil Sect, you have no humanity!¡± ¡°What the heck! You can kill us if you want to, but it¡¯s inhumane to bury us alive!¡± ¡°As expected, the powerful factions are not to be trusted!¡± Ou Chen: ¡°...¡± Zhao Yongkang: ¡°...¡± After exining everything clearly, these talented people finally understood that the ones in front of them weren¡¯t from the Evil Sect. Instead, they were good people who had saved them from the Evil Sect¡¯s ws. At this time, there were finally words of gratitude. These people¡ªwho had been rescued and freed from the destiny of bing the formation¡¯s foundation¡ªwere all grateful to Link and the others. Ou Chen basked in those grateful gazes as he waved his hand awe-inspiringly. ¡°Everyone, there¡¯s no need for thanks. The God of Light is always watching over us. Let us believe that darkness and fog are always only temporary, while light is eternal!¡± Link raised his sword-like eyebrows slightly; he knew what wasing. As soon as Ou Chen spoke, it was obvious he was out to convince them of something... After a few generous words and calming everyone¡¯s emotions, Ou Chen quietly whispered to the Temple of Light members beside him. ¡°These people aren¡¯t weak; they are all Stage Three or Stage Four [Doomsday Online] yers, and they can be considered the various forces¡¯ backbones. Find a way to win their favor and gratitude; then, fool them¡ªno, convince them to join our Temple of Light!¡± The man from the Temple of Light suddenly nodded. ¡°In this way, our Temple of Light can grow a little bit more; the Holy Son is really farsighted.¡± ¡°Heh, I like you. Study hard, and you will be somebody great in the future.¡± The Holy Son¡ªOu Chen¡¯s mouth curved, revealing an unreadable smile. He looked at the man appreciatively. At this moment, a hand was ced on Ou Chen¡¯s shoulder. ¡°What¡¯s the matter? Did something happen again?¡± Ou Chen frowned slightly and turned his head around. Zhao Yongkang¡¯s determined face suddenly came into view. ¡°Brother Zhao...¡± ¡°Our City Master asked me to pass a message¡ªhe wants all the people here. Just stay out of the way and give up trying to get them on your side.¡± Ou Chen¡¯s brows twisted together, and his expression was instantly subdued. ¡°How is Unfallen City so greedy? There are 20 to 30 people here. You could share with the Temple of Light.¡± Before, it was also because of these 20 to 30 people that he suggested that theye to the Forest of Darkness to Tian Mingyuan and Wu Hao. This number of Stage Three and Four [Doomsday Online] yers made quite a formidable force! If Ou Chen were able to turn this in his favor, the high-level Temple of Light elders would be overjoyed... A voice suddenly came from nearby. It was as indifferent as before,cking all emotion. ¡°Why, do you have an opinion?¡± Ou Chen¡¯s body suddenly stiffened. Even without looking, he knew it was Link who had spoken. He skillfully contorted his face into a smile. ¡°No, it¡¯s not a big deal. Brother Link saved these people, so, of course, you are in charge.¡± As he spoke, Ou Chen tapped the Temple of Light member on the chest again. ¡°Go, tell them about Unfallen City and about how great our Brother Link is!¡± The man from the Temple of Light was silent. Ou Chen¡¯s face was docile. There seemed to be two words written on his face¡ª¡¯understanding¡¯ and ¡®agreement.¡¯ However, his heart was bleeding. It was as if a sad person was kneeling on the ground and wailing: ¡°That¡¯s 20 to 30 [Doomsday Online] yers of the same rank, no... no more!¡± Link nodded slightly and stopped paying attention. He turned to look at the items that Xue Linglong had handed over. These items were all in Zheng Jinshang¡¯s personal backpack and had dropped after he died. There were a few talismans with hidden attacks and some misceneous items that assisted inbat. They weren¡¯t of great value. After all, if [Doomsday Online] yers obtained valuable items such as skill scrolls, they would definitely use them immediately rather than keep them. One of the ancient books within this pile of items attracted Link¡¯s attention. The book seemed to be quite old. On the cover¡ªwritten in an official script¡ªwas: ¡®Master Qingxuan¡¯s Chronicles of Strange Happenings.¡¯ There were strange happenings recorded in an ancientnguage, and there were even illustrations of formations. The formation that the Evil Sect hadid on the ground was included. As Link read through the book, a system notification sounded in his ears. [Host¡¯sprehension of Xuanming¡¯s Body Sacrifice Formation +1] ... It seemed like he could use this book to learn something about formations! He had found a treasure! Link¡¯s eyes shed; this was what he had wanted to get from the powerful factions. Secrets, formations, and even some special methods were extremely precious. It was difficult for ordinary people to obtain them; only the powerful factions had them! To Link, this ancient book was far more important than equipment! He didn¡¯t take a closer look. After casually scanning through it, he put it in his personal backpack, nning to study it when he was freeter. At this moment, Zhao Yongkang and Luo Xingyao walked over, their expressions embarrassed. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Zhao Yongkang said, ¡°City Master, some of the rescued people originally belonged to other cities¡¯ teams. They aren¡¯t exiled powerhouses and have their own affiliations...¡± Link immediately understood that they had encountered difficulties in recruitingbor workers. Ou Chen saw the opportunity to show off his talents and immediately leaned over. ¡°Brother Link, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯m well versed in that; let me talk to them.¡± Link nced at Ou Chen and waved his hand disdainfully. ¡°I have a way too.¡± Ou Chen was surprised. He knew Link was powerful, but his character was cold and indifferent. Link didn¡¯t talk very much; it was as if his every word was extremely precious. Can he convince those people? Anyway, Ou Chen didn¡¯t believe it. He was even mentally anticipating to see Link embarrass himself. shes of curiosity even streaked across Zhao Yongkang and Luo Xingyao¡¯s faces. They also wanted to know how Link would convince those people. With righteous and awe-inspiring words? These people aren¡¯t children. They have families in other cities, so why would they want to work for Link in Unfallen City? He is most likely going to solicit them with offers of some benefits. In fact, among those who were unwilling to join Unfallen City, there were many people who were waiting to see what he would offer. After all, these people weren¡¯t the original No Retreat Army. Although Stage Three and Stage Four powerhouses weren¡¯t top yers, they weren¡¯t weak either. Although they had been attracted here by the news of the ruin and were hoodwinked by the Evil Sect, they all had homes and ces to retreat to. Unfallen City was not their only choice. Zhao Yongkang and the others soon brought Link to those who were unwilling to join Unfallen City. After the priests¡¯ treatment, these people still looked pathetic. However, they seemed to be in good health. Some of the Stage Four powerhouses¡ªwho were leading them¡ªstood arrogantly with their arms crossed across their chests as they mentally looked Link over. Zhao Yongkang patted someone on the shoulder. ¡°Our City Master wants to talk to you personally.¡± The man turned his head away with an arrogant look. ¡°Don¡¯t touch me! I¡¯m from Ancient Spirit City!¡± Chapter 187: Physical Persuasion! Pledging Their Fealty One After Another!

Chapter 187: Physical Persuasion! Pledging Their Fealty One After Another!

The actions of the man from Ancient Spirit City immediately caused Zhao Yongkang, Ou Chen, and the others to feel slightly unhappy. Before Zhao Yongkang could speak, a gentle-looking Stage Four powerhouse stepped forward. The two seemed to know each other well, and the Stage Four powerhouse immediately reprimanded, ¡°Guo Jian¡¯an, why are you so rude? Did your parents not teach you that you should be grateful to your savior?¡± Only then did Guo Jian¡¯an be less arrogant and impatient. However, he still muttered, ¡°I didn¡¯t say anything wrong; we are from somewhere...¡± ¡°Shut up.¡± The Stage Four powerhouse nced at Guo Jian¡¯an and saw that thetter had lowered his head and stopped speaking. Only then did he cast an apologetic look at Link and the others. ¡°My apologies, we have made fools of ourselves. My name is He Fan. Wee from Ancient Spirit City. Guo Jian¡¯an is my subordinate. I have not taught him properly; please forgive us.¡± ¡°I heard from Mr. Zhao here that Sir intends to recruit us. You tter us, but it¡¯s just that we already belong to Ancient Spirit City. I¡¯m afraid it will be hard for us to be of service to you... I can only hope that there will be a chance in our next life to dedicate our lives to you, Sir, as repayment for your kindness!¡± Saying that, He Fan spread his hands. His expression was an appropriate mix of three parts helplessness, four parts regret, and three parts gratitude... He Fan¡¯s words not only helped him out of a very embarrassing situation but also everyone else. Some people around them immediately picked up the conversation. ¡°That¡¯s right. We are grateful to Sir for saving our lives, but we already belong to a city, and it will be difficult for us to be of service to you.¡± ¡°Your kindness will be remembered, Sir. However, I¡¯m afraid we are unable to answer your recruitment call.¡± ¡°Sire, a melon forcibly harvested will not be sweet...¡± ... The voices were incessant, and the situation suddenly became difficult to control. Ou Chen¡¯s eyes suddenly narrowed, and light flickered in his eyes. Good fellow, I have met a master! He Fan and Guo Jian¡¯an were putting on the good cop, bad cop act. It was an act they were obviously familiar with. Not only did they advance in the guise of retreating, but they also incited so many people. It hadpletely blocked Link¡¯s attempt at recruitment! Ou Chen couldn¡¯t help but look at Link. He wondered what Link nned to do. When Zhao Yongkang and the others saw this, they all helplessly looked at Link. Link just nced at the man named He Fan and spoke without a trace of emotion. ¡°You seem to be mistaken.¡± ¡°Oh?¡± Upon hearing that, everyone seemed to stop talking and turned to look at Link. Mistaken? What are we mistaken about? Link¡¯s expression was indifferent. His eyes were like two cold stars, slowly sweeping across the crowd. The atmosphere suddenly became subdued. ¡°I am not asking you to join us, nor am I negotiating terms with you. If I can save you, I can also send you to your graves. Rein in your little bit of cleverness. Right now, only those who prove their worth can live! I hope you will seize this opportunity.¡± With those merciless words, Link suddenly clenched his hand. In an instant, the [King¡¯s Sword] appeared in his hand, and the cold sword edge glinted menacingly in the sun. Without saying more, Link brought the sword down. A fierce sword aura suddenly whizzed out. The dense sword energy was trapped within like a powerful torrent! With the appearance of that sword, the world trembled. The sword energy could be felt for hundreds of meters! Boom! A roar exploded. A torrent of sword energy passed by the group of survivors and bombarded the ground. Sand and rocks flew, and the ground cracked, leaving a deep gully filled with dense sword intent! At this moment, the entire ce was dead silent. Silence¡ª The bodies of all the survivors froze, and their scalps turned numb. It was as if they had been instantly turned into y puppets. Their sweaty hair stood on end, and cold sweat covered their foreheads! At the moment Link swung his sword, they all felt an indescribable sense of crisis! It was like a sickle of death resting on their necks¡ªthey seemed to be getting nearer and nearer to death! Even the few Stage Four powerhouses were no exception. This sense of oppression and crisis was even stronger than when facing a Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse! Guo Jian¡¯an¡ªwho had been extra troublesome earlier¡ªhad be exceptionally pale. On his back, his clothes had turned wet from cold sweat. The wind blew, chilling him thoroughly... He Fan¡¯s expression was also full of horror and panic. He was also a Stage Four powerhouse. He knew very well that, even if he tried his best, he might not be able to withstand half of Link¡¯s attack! At this moment, these survivors realized howrge the gap between them and Link was! It was like a chasm; they werepletely overwhelmed by Link¡¯sbat power! These survivors weren¡¯t the only ones stunned. Even Ou Chen, Zhao Yongkang, and the others¡¯ expressions froze immediately. At this moment, the expression in Ou Chen¡¯s eyes was extremelyplicated, and his feelings were even more jumbled. He looked at the gully and then at Link, who was expressionless. You said you had a way to convince them? This was it?! Persuasion by physical means? Gatling Bodhisattva?! After a while, many people swallowed hard and slowly recovered. Someone sighed. ¡°City Master Link has such good swordsmanship; it is admirable. I am willing to join Unfallen City. It¡¯s my honor to serve the City Master!¡± Once someone got the ball rolling, everyone else immediately voiced their agreement. ¡°I¡¯m also willing to join City Master Link. Good birds choose good trees to live in; I only know what a good overlord should be like after seeing City Master Link today!¡± ¡°I will join too. I am willing to serve you!¡± ... The voices continued, and the previously reluctant people became enthusiastic suddenly. It was as though they had been instantly conquered by Link¡¯s charming personality. They came one after another to pledge their fealty. He Fan also changed his attitudepletely. He no longer spoke of repaying the favor in his next life; otherwise, he might really have to die on the spot. These people suddenly came to their senses. Those on the sidelines no longer dared to harbor any opposing thoughts. What a joke. This City Master Link was obviously a killing machine. If they annoyed him, there wouldn¡¯t even be enough of them for his sword to finish one cut. Terrified... they were terrified. Retreat, and the skies will clear. Give in to terror, and one will have a good life ahead. Looking at the situation in front of them that had suddenly changed, Zhao Yongkang and Xue Linglong looked embarrassed. Their City Master had always had a disposition for killing, and he had always persuaded others with brute strength. What else could they say? Zhao Yongkang could only say: ¡°Ah... here! One by one, report your name, profession, and your specialties. Register here.¡± Ou Chen couldn¡¯t help but put his hand to his forehead. Gatling Bodhisattva; this method worked really well against these people. Link nced at the people who were scrambling to register their abilities and said flippantly, ¡°That Guo Jian¡¯an is only Stage Three and has no value. Does the Temple of Light want him? Otherwise, there¡¯s no need to keep him alive.¡± When the indifferent words fell, Guo Jian¡¯an lower abdomen tightened immediately. He almost peed. He quickly shouted, ¡°I¡¯m valuable; I¡¯m valuable. I¡¯m willing to go through fire and water for the City Master!¡± Link couldn¡¯t even be bothered to look at him. His gaze turned to Ou Chen. Ou Chen was stunned. ¡°Don¡¯t kill him, hehe; I¡¯ll take him. Guo Jian¡¯an,e to my side. Work hard in the future, and I won¡¯t treat you badly.¡± Stage Three, although not elite, was still substantial. Ou Chen was resigned to this. After dealing with these trivial matters, Link walked toward the three powerful factions¡¯ previous camp. Kidnapping the three major forces¡¯ members and subduing this group of people was just incidental. His real purpose was to unlock the Epochal Ruins... Chapter 188: Boundary Breaking Talisman! Powerful Item!

Chapter 188: Boundary Breaking Talisman! Powerful Item!

In the camp, Tian Mingyuan and Wu Hao hurriedly stepped forward and asked in concern about Link¡¯s return. ¡°Brother Link, we noticed a battle over there just now. Have you encountered an enemy? What¡¯s the situation? Are there any injuries?¡± The God Devourer Ant also vibrated its thin wings, turning into a ck shadow as it flew over. It hummed with intimacy toward Link. This fierce beast¡ªwhich was strong enough to tear apart a Stage Five powerhouse¡ªwas extremely tame when facing its master, Link. When Zhu Changfeng saw Link¡¯s figure appear, his pupils suddenly shrank. His whole body stiffened, and even his heart stopped for a beat! This god of killing actually came back alive! It¡¯s over! He wasn¡¯t a fool and naturally knew what this meant. The hidden n arranged by the Evil Sect must¡¯ve failed. Even Elder Zheng¡ªwho had read the peak of Stage Five¡ªalso couldn¡¯t kill him? Is it really true that a scourgests for a thousand years? There was a burst of sadness and despair in Zhu Changfeng¡¯s heart, and the size of his psychological shadow continued to expand until it was toorge to be measurable. Link patted the God Devourer Ant¡¯s head and said calmly, ¡°It¡¯s okay; I found a peak Stage Five existence that we missed out on just now and have already killed him.¡± ¡°Oh, it¡¯s good as long as you guys are fine...¡± Tian Mingyuan was continuing the conversation, but he suddenly stopped but when he realized what Link was saying! ¡°Huh? A peak Stage Five powerhouse? Already dead?!¡± ¡°Er...¡± Tian Mingyuan and Wu Hao¡¯s eyes became dazed, and they almost thought they had auditory hallucinations. When they saw Link nod slightly, they knew that they hadn¡¯t heard it wrong. Link¡¯s tone was t, but these words were tantamount to a thunderbolt striking their heads heavily! It was like a huge boulder had been dropped into theke of their hearts, causing countless ripples! Tian Mingyuan and Wu Hao were dumbfounded¡ªeven the captives were also shocked, their faces full of terror! Everyone was speechless. Saying that he killed a peak Stage Five powerhouse with such a in tone... Does he really think that Stage Five powerhouses are like Chinese cabbages that can be found on the streets? He sounds as if any person can chop a path from the west entrance of the market to the south entrance with a watermelon knife? That¡¯s the top powerhouse of mankind at this stage, and there aren¡¯t many even among the top factions! Why are you so calm, you bastard? Seeing that Link didn¡¯t intend to borate, Wu Hao and Tian Mingyuan could only turn their heads and ask Ou Chen, who came back with Link. Ou Chen didn¡¯t conceal what happened and divulged everything he knew. After hearing that Link had killed an ancient ck-haired corpseparable to a Stage Six powerhouse with one sh of the sword, everyone couldn¡¯t help sucking in a cold breath. The way they looked at Link also became even stranger. This kid is just a monster! After Ou Chen finished speaking, the rest learned of what happened and also knew of the Evil Sect¡¯s n. The group of prisoners¡ªsuch as Wang Hao of Ancient Martial Alliance and He Lunhai of Martial God Hall¡ªhad cold sweat all over their bodies. The veins on their foreheads jumped violently upon hearing this. If it hadn¡¯t been for Link¡¯s intervention, they would still be kept in the dark by Evil Sect! If theypleted the formation ording to the Evil Sect¡¯s n and let that Elder Zheng reach Stage Six, what awaited them was definitely a cmity! The people from Ancient Martial Alliance and Martial God Hall didn¡¯t know if they should be rejoicing in the current situation. In short, their hatred had been focused on the Evil Sect at this moment! They immediately red at Zhu Changfeng and the other remaining Evil Sect members, scolding and yelling at them. Some of them even craned their necks and spat at Zhu Changfeng. ¡°Damn it! So that formation isn¡¯t for opening the ruins at all! Zhu Changfeng, how dare you lie to us!¡± ¡°Damn it! Zhu Changfeng, you deserve to die! You harmed so many people just for one person to advance in stage! Your conscience has been eaten by dogs!¡± ... Zhu Changfeng¡¯s face went green, but he couldn¡¯t change the situation in front of him. He sneered and said, ¡°Humph, don¡¯t speak like you guys are clean. When we proposed to use humans as the spell formation¡¯s base, didn¡¯t you all agree as well!? You guys are no better; we are all the same kind of people!¡± A voice suddenly sounded, and everyone stopped their cursing. ¡°Shut up.¡± Link swept his gaze across the crowd with cold eyes and finally stopped, focusing on Zhu Changfeng¡¯s face. Then, he insipidly said, ¡°It¡¯s time to hand over the item.¡± Both Han Yingjie and the hidden powerhouse of Evil Sect were dead, and neither of them dropped the [Boundary Breaking Talisman]. Therefore, it could only be with Zhu Changfeng! Zhu Changfeng¡¯s face turned pale; he knew what Link was talking about, and he had no doubt that if he tried to dy giving it to him again, Link would definitely send him off to the road to hell! After all, even if he hid the [Boundary Breaking Talisman] in the system backpack, it would definitely drop if he was killed. Zhu Changfeng didn¡¯t take the opportunity to mention any more conditions to Link. It was unnecessary, and he was in no position to do so as well. Zhu Changfeng quickly opened his personal backpack, and a talisman exuding silver brilliance appeared in front of everyone instantly. The talisman was very mysterious and extraordinary-looking. As soon as it appeared, it floated in the air, exuding a soft halo. An aura of Dao was also rippling from it! In its surrounding space, mysterious runes shed and disappeared continuously. Even the vast and ethereal voice of Daoism faintly sounded in everyone¡¯s ears as if it hade from a ce far and long ago¡ªmysterious and leisurely. For a moment, a sh of desire shed in everyone¡¯s hearts. A supreme treasure! It is definitely an extremely powerful high-end item! Wang Hao and He Lunhai stared at the [Boundary Breaking Talisman] without blinking. Green light appeared in their eyes, and a touch of greed shed across their faces. Even Ou Chen and Tian Mingyuan couldn¡¯t help but feel the desire to obtain this item. However, they were Link¡¯s allies. Although they were greedy for this talisman, they wouldn¡¯t covet or snatch it. In their opinion, Link was far more important than a powerful item. While looking at the [Boundary Breaking Talisman], there was a glimmer of light in Link¡¯s eyes. This is the sense of Space! This Boundary Breaking Talisman is a space-type item; no wonder it can open the ruins forcibly! Space and Time¡ªthese two attributes were both extremely powerful and rare, surpassing most special attributes! Since it had the sense of Space on it, this [Boundary Breaking Talisman] was definitely not an ordinary item! In the scorching eyes of everyone, Link waved his hand, cing the [Boundary Breaking Talisman] into his hand. Soon, a piece of information entered Link¡¯s mind. [Boundary Breaking Talisman] Grade: Epic (iplete) Introduction: It contains immense spatial power. It is said to be made by Daoists who understood the void in ancient times. After years of erosion, its core essence is slightly insufficient, and the state is iplete. Additional skill 1: [Boundary Breaking] (Passive Skill): The user can inject their own energy to activate the [Boundary Breaking Talisman] to break through barriers and space restrictions. Number of usages: 2/2 Note: The higher the barrier level, the greater the energy consumption. Base level to use this item: Stage Six. Additional skill 2: [Void Exile] (Active Skill): (Iplete state, still sealed.) ... After reading the information of the [Boundary Breaking Talisman], Link couldn¡¯t help but feel a sense of joy. This is indeed a powerful item! It¡¯s able to break through spell barriers! It¡¯s just that the usage requirement is too high, and there¡¯s a limit on the number of times it can be used. If not, just this skill alone is enough for it to be a Legend-grade item. Link was filled with anticipation. What kind of transformation will it undergo under my [Supreme Blessing] skill? Chapter 189: Blessing! Open the Ruins!

Chapter 189: Blessing! Open the Ruins!

Link¡¯s mind moved slightly and cast [Supreme Blessing]. Brilliant streamers gathered and wrapped the [Boundary Breaking Talisman] into a ball of brilliance in his hand! Momentarily, the faint sound of Dao faintly spreading into the crowd became clearer, and a rich sense of Dao rippled out! It was as if someone was chanting from above the nine heavens, revealing a certain profound and mysterious truth of the world! Wu Hao, Ou Chen, and the prisoners¡ªsuch as He Lunhai¡ªall showed surprised expressions as they stared at the [Boundary Breaking Talisman] floating in the air. They didn¡¯t understand what had happened! ¡°What¡¯s happening...¡± Ou Chen opened his mouth slightly, his expression dumbfounded. But the sound of Dao wasn¡¯t all to this matter. As the sense of Dao got stronger and stronger after a while, the space in front of everyone became faintly distorted! The void was like a curtain, with someone holding a corner and slowly lifting it up so that others could have the privilege of seeing the truth behind the curtain. A starry sky¡ªblended with infinite colors¡ªappeared in front of everyone! The radiance of various colors and the endless beautiful scene were mesmerizing. The unspeakable grandeur and mystery stunned everyone¡¯s hearts! It should be noted that even Stage Five powerhouses also couldn¡¯t break apart space with their own power. Only Sage-stage powerhouses had the power to break apart space! But at this moment, the space in front of them was actually affected and distorted! A touch of shock and astonishment shed across everyone¡¯s faces! Only Link remained calm; he even wanted tough a little bit. This was a phenomenon caused by the blessing. The more incredible the phenomena, the more powerful the [Boundary Breaking Talisman] would be. After a few breaths of time, the extremely brilliant colors of the stars disappeared. After the blessing, the [Boundary Breaking Talisman] returned to Link¡¯s hand. As he checked the talisman, a message entered his mind. [Boundary Breaking Talisman] Grade: Myth Introduction: It contains the unpredictable power of space; it¡¯s said to be the product of a certain Daoist after studying the void in ancient times. After a phenomenon that caused a huge impact during that time, this Daoist¡ªwho was obsessed with the stars¡ªdisappeared. Some people said that he had ascended into the greater void, while some said that he had already passed away. This talisman is one of the few legacies he left behind... Additional skill 1: [Boundary Breaking] (Passive Skill): The user can inject their own energy to activate the [Boundary Breaking Talisman] to break through barriers and space restrictions. Cooldown: 60 days (can consumerge amounts of void energy to elerate the cooldown process). Note: The higher the barrier level, the greater the energy consumption. Basic level to use this item: Stage Six. Additional skill 2: [Void Exile] (Active Skill): The user can activate the [Boundary Breaking Talisman] to consume the power of space and tear apart space, create a void crack, and banish any unit to the distant stars. Cooldown: 2 days (can consumerge amounts of void energy to elerate the cooldown process). Basic level to use this item: Stage Six. ... After seeing the [Boundary Breaking Talisman]¡¯s attributes, even someone as calm as Link found it difficult to remain calm, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. He had gained a huge treasure! The Evil Sect had really given him a huge gift! After the blessing, the talisman¡¯s effect had be even more powerful! It became a Myth-grade item. Also, not only was the usage limit removed, but the [Void Exile] skill was also unlocked. As long as Link met the requirement to use the talisman, not only would he possess a key that could unlock the various ruins but also powerful means to use against his enemies. How overbearing would it be to exile the enemy directly into the void!? It should be noted that only upon reaching Stage Eight, Semi-Sage, could a person possess the mighty power of shattering space. As for those below Stage Eight, unless they had some special items or methods, most of them would be unable to destroy space! [Void Exile], for most existences below Stage Eight, was practically insoluble! Link ced the [Boundary Breaking Talisman] into his personal backpack and spoke in his heart to himself. The big factions¡¯ members really are a flock of big, fat sheep! He had made up his mind to have more close contact with these big factions¡¯ members in the future. Thinking about this, Link couldn¡¯t help but nce at Zhu Changfeng. Although there were obvious shoe prints on his face, it was more pleasing to the eye than before. Zhu Changfeng¡¯s scalp went numb. His face was bitter, and he wailed in his heart, God damn it! This god of killing is thinking of making use of me again?! Ou Chen¡ªwho was at the side¡ªslowly put away the shock on his face and looked at Link as he asked, ¡°Brother Link, what was that phenomenon just now?¡± ¡°Could it be...¡± Ou Chen frowned, a wise light shing in his eyes as he said, ¡°Were you trying to activate the [Boundary Breaking Talisman] just now to open the ruin?¡± ¡°I thought only those who reached Stage Six could use it?¡± A look of surprise shed across Tian Mingyuan¡¯s face. ¡°The ruin wasn¡¯t opened. Maybe it¡¯s because Brother Link didn¡¯t meet the requirement to use it,¡± Wu Hao said in a deep and hoarse voice. Link nodded slightly. These people had good imagination capabilities, saving him the effort of thinking up an excuse to cover up the phenomena caused by the blessing. ¡°En, I was just trying out the effect. However, I can open the ruin even without the [Boundary Breaking Talisman].¡± Upon hearing Link¡¯s affirmative words, everyone¡¯s eyes changed slightly, but they weren¡¯t very surprised. After all, they had previously guessed that the key to the ruin should be in Link¡¯s hands. Tian Mingyuan stood up; he knew that it was time for the Temple of Light to leave. Although Link had a good rtionship with them, even biological brothers needed to settle their ounts clearly. Since the Epochal Ruins belonged to Link, they shouldn¡¯t covet them so as not to damage their rtionship with Link. Even if the ruin represented opportunities, it wasn¡¯t worth it to fall out with Link over it. ¡°If this is the case, then we shall also leave now and not dy City Master Link from exploring the ruin. I hope you wille to Bright Sun City as a guest when you have time. We can formally form an alliance with each other to help each other and exchange what is needed,¡± Tian Mingyuan said solemnly. Seeing the Temple of Light reacting so appropriately and still expressing kindness when facing the ruin¡¯s temptation, Link couldn¡¯t help liking them a little more in his heart. ¡°I will visit once I am free.¡± Saying so, Link looked at Ou Chen and said, ¡°Also, Ou Chen can stay and enter the ruin with me.¡± It wasn¡¯t only the Temple of Light¡¯s people who were stunned after hearing these words, but He Lunhai and the others as well. How could this god of killing be so generous? He¡¯s actually willing to share the ruin with the Temple of Light! All the prisoners couldn¡¯t help but cast envious nces at Ou Chen and the others! Looking at them, then looking at their own allies... He Lunhai and the others were full of envy, jealousy, and hatred. It was as if they had eaten several lemons in one go. They felt sour... ¡°This... isn¡¯t appropriate, right?¡± Ou Chen¡¯s mouth smiled until it reached behind his ears, but he still pretended to be reserved. ¡°Forget it then.¡± Link was toozy to bother about him. ¡°Don¡¯t! Brother Link, my respect for you is unending like a surging river! How can you go back on your words...¡± Ou Chen quickly changed his face. Wu Hao and Tian Mingyuan were full of delight and kept thanking Link. This wasn¡¯t a small kindness nor a small gift! Link smiled. He naturally had his considerations for pulling Ou Chen alone. Firstly, it was because there were still unknown risks in the ruin, and Ou Chen was Stage Fivebat power after all. Secondly, taking this opportunity to win over the Temple of Light was also a good choice. As he thought about this, Link didn¡¯t drag on and instantly walked toward the ancient stone tablet... Chapter 190: Embers of Civilization, Reboot!

Chapter 190: Embers of Civilization, Reboot!

Link proudly stood in front of the ancient-feeling stone tablet. His back was tall and straight like a long spear pointed directly at the sky, appearing as if he wanted to fight against heaven and earth! Momentarily, Wu Hao, Tian Mingyuan, and the others were all filled with respect for Link. They could feel this young man¡¯s unspeakable aura. Ou Chen put away the smile on his face and silently followed Xue Linglong, Luo Xingyao, Zhao Yongkang, and Luo Haoyue, standing behind Link. The God Devourer Ant temporarily stayed behind as a guard. After all, there were still many prisoners here. Just now, Zhao Yongkang had contacted Unfallen City through themunication device, so Yang Xuerou would soon send people over to receive these prisoners and deal with the remaining matters. As long as Link needed them, he could directly summon his summoned creatures¡ªsuch as God Devourer Ant and Star Moon¡ªto his side at any time, even if they weren¡¯t in one ce. Link took out a key that exuded a strange aura from his backpack. It was the [Key of Relic]. As soon as the key appeared, it seemed to be drawn by some inexplicable force and flew toward the dent on the stone tablet by itself. The runes on the stone tablet lit up one after another at this moment, and streams of radiant light floated out from it, looking very extraordinary! Rumble! A roar that sounded like spring thunder sted in everyone¡¯s ears! The [Key of Relic] filled the dent on the stone tablet perfectly, and a bright beam of light suddenly soared into the sky like a pir that connected heaven and earth! The dense flowing clouds in the sky were directly pierced and scattered by this winding beam of light! The sun instantly dimmed as if a big hand was covering the sky at this moment! Then, the energies drifting in the air turned into a variety of lights and started converging here like a school of fish. The wind was surging, and the world seemed to change color as well! A mysterious aura spilled out from the huge beam of light as if it hade from ancient times, crossing over the long river of time¡ªmajestic and vast! This phenomenon had a very wide range of influence and attracted the attention of countless people! In the wilderness, a team of [Doomsday Online] yers¡ªwho had just finished fighting with the Undead monsters¡ªlooked up at the sky full of shock, not even bothering to pick up the loot on the ground! In the surrounding human home cities, countless people stopped their activities and looked toward the sky. Some people were puzzled, some were surprised, and some muttered, ¡°What¡¯s happening? Is it a new space crack?¡± In Unfallen City. Yang Xuerou, Qiao Ruowei, and the others stood on the city wall. They looked toward the Forest of Darkness, staring at the huge beam of light. ¡°It should be that the ruin is being opened. It¡¯s uncertain when the City Master wille back. We must prepare for battle,¡± Yang Xuerou said suddenly. Qiao Ruowei nodded, coldness shing in her beautiful eyes. The phenomenon is so extraordinary; it¡¯s likely that many people have noticed it. Next, it is likely that many people will have designs on the ruin and Unfallen City, which had obtained it. ... Bright Sun City, inside a tall, towering building. Ou Mingcheng¡ªthe Temple of Light¡¯s Lord¡ªstood in front of the French windows with his hands behind his back, staring at the beam of light and phenomenon in the distance. ¡°Is the ruin opened? It actually caused such a phenomenon. I wonder if Ou Chen has entered the ruin...¡± An Elder behind Ou Mingcheng smiled and said, ¡°Even though the Holy Son loves to y around, he¡¯s still capable when handling matters. I think he will definitely gain something this time.¡± ... In an Undead army town, the Undead creatures and monsters also noticed the phenomenon. They stopped their activities and cast their gazes in the direction of the Forest of Darkness. After the siege war ended, some of the space cracks were closed. However, most of the space cracks were integrated and solidified by the powerhouses in the Undead army, bing channels for the Undead army to enter this world. Countless Undead creatures descended from their original world to Blue Star through the space cracks, bing a steady source of troops for the Undead army. Gu Ao was an abyssal existence that entered Blue Star through this channel. He had reached Stage Six and was one of the most outstanding among the younger generation of his race. He was staring at the beam of light at this moment. His eyes faintly turned red as if he was excited, and a dense bloody aura continued to radiate from him. ¡°Haha, is there a ruin that has been opened? The human being that the ancestor talked about should be in that direction! I hope that that human won¡¯t let me down...¡± ... Forest of Darkness. The ancient stone tablet marking the ruin had disappeared, reced by a huge portal made of light. The inside of the portal waspletely dark, and the streams of energy twisted like a vortex. Nobody knew where it led to. The Epochal Ruins should exist in a certain subspace, and this should be the entrance. Link¡¯s mind turned as he considered this, and without hesitation, he stepped straight into the ruin. With curiosity and anxiety, Xue Linglong and the others all stepped forward and followed Link into the ruin. When Ou Chen¡ªwho wasst¡ªentered as well, the huge light portal suddenly copsed. Space was like a water surface with ripples at its starting point. It eventually becamepletely calm as if everything that happened before was just an illusion. Wu Hao, Tian Mingyuan, and the other Temple of Light people were stunned by this strange scene, and they were speechless for a long time. These methods were far beyond their abilities, and they didn¡¯t know how such a powerful civilization had been destroyed, leaving only the remains. ¡°Please return safely,¡± Tian Mingyuan said silently. ... After a brief sense of dizziness, Link violently opened his eyes. What appeared in his eyes was a bizarre scene. Strangely shaped buildings stood there; some of the buildings were even floating in the air as the brilliance of magic bloomed from them. In the sky, numerous aircraft with strong magical auras whizzed past. Is this the interior of the Epochal Ruins? A magic-inclined civilization? Link said silently in his heart. Suddenly, his eyes changed. When he checked himself just now, Link noticed that his extraordinary power had disappeared! Even the items in his personal backpack couldn¡¯t be summoned out; even the clothes on his body turned into a gray robe. Link frowned slightly. And right at this moment, a sweet soft voice suddenly sounded in his heart. ¡°Link, what¡¯s wrong? Are you feeling any difort in your body?¡± This voice didn¡¯t belong to anynguage Link knew, but he could clearly understand what it meant. Apanied by the sound of words, a white and tender palm waved in front of Link. Link didn¡¯t hesitate. He turned around, quickly stretched out his palm, strangled that person¡¯s throat, and pressed her to the ground. This set of movements flowed smoothly like it was just as natural as breathing. The few people beside Link were all dumbfounded at this moment as well! They obviously didn¡¯t expect Link to make such a move so decisively! The one restrained by Link was a sweet-looking girl. Her face was full of surprise at this time, and her fair face was even blushing a little. A woman? Link¡¯s eyes looked slightly taken aback. However, he didn¡¯t let go. Woman or not, it didn¡¯t affect the speed of his sword. In a strange environment where there were unknown dangers, Link always liked to be in control first. ¡°Were you the one talking to me just now?¡± Link asked. Then, he suddenly realized that his words had be an unknownnguage too. Chapter 191: Dreams! Gods!

Chapter 191: Dreams! Gods!

A hint of worry shed through the eyes of the young girl who had her throat choked by Link. ¡°Ling, do you not remember me anymore? I¡¯m Aisha.¡± A voice that was clean and melodious like trickling stream water sounded at the bottom of Link¡¯s heart once again. It seemed as though it directlymunicated with him through the soul. The two youths beside him finally recovered from their shock, and their rather anxious voices sounded. ¡°Ling, what are you doing?! Have you been influenced by that group of evil beings?¡± ¡°Let go of Aisha! Have you gone mad too?¡± Amid the voices, the two young males, or rather youths, came forward, wanting to rescue Aisha from Link¡¯s hands. But experienced as Link was, he naturally wouldn¡¯t let them seed easily. The hand that was strangling Aisha tightened a little again. Link icily nced at those two youths and said in a low voice, ¡°Don¡¯t move; you know the consequences!¡± Those two people were worried that Aisha would meet with a mishap, and their bodies instantly froze in ce. Meanwhile, Link seized the opportunity to size up these few people. Their appearances didn¡¯t differ too much from that of humans; only their skin color was lighter, and their ears were also a little sharp. They resembled the legendary elves, and they all seemed to be quite good-looking. Is this the race of this civilization? Moreover, their way ofmunication seems to act on the soul directly. Everyone in this race has a certain kind of psychological connection? Also, where are Xue Linglong, Ou Chen, and the rest? Link was in thought when Aisha¡¯s voice sounded once more. ¡°Ling, don¡¯t be nervous. We can understand your pain. The passing of your family cannot be changed. Let your emotions settle; everything will get better.¡± Mm? What did that mean? Pain and the evil beings that the two sharp-eared youths from earlier spoke of. This n has enemies and is currently suffering through a certain cmity... Just as Link was pondering, arge amount of information suddenly exploded in his mind. It was as if arge hand was prodding Link¡¯s brain, almost twisting his brain into a lump of paste! Link frowned as a pronounced sense of pain and dizziness came hitting. What appeared in his mind were memories, a section of memories that seemed to belong to ¡®him.¡¯ It seemed like a dust-sealed case was being opened; he remembered everything¡ªeverything was clear now. He was called Ling. He lived with his family in a city near the Holy City¡ªAn¡ªand they originally had a peaceful and happy life. But not long ago, disaster suddenly arrived without warning. Even the n¡¯s sages and high priests didn¡¯t expect it. The disaster was a group of evil beings who came through the gaps of space. They destroyed cities and forts; countless people died, and fresh blood dyed the grounds and oceans. His family members all perished as a result. The evil beings seemed to be inexhaustible; they even emitted terrifying pollution. People who were polluted would be aberrated and be a member of the evil beings. Their people fought courageously, but it was still difficult to reverse the tide. Seven great sages in the n died sessively, leaving only three who guarded the survivors as they retreated to the Holy City, An, which was built on the ocean. This was their ancestralnd and also theirst hope. The sages and high priests wanted to summon the gods of their faith. Perhaps only the gods would be able to end this catastrophe... As each memory came forth, the world before Link¡¯s eyes quickly turned dark as if he had fallen into a deep, bottomless sea. Before Linkpletely lost consciousness, he could only vaguely sense Aisha¡¯s calls. ... When Link opened his eyes once again, he was already inside a building. Decorations with colors of white and blue criss-crossed, and the walls of a certain alloy material gave one a feeling of freshness and spaciousness. ¡°You¡¯re awake?¡± A hint of surprise shed across the small face of Aisha, who sat by the bedside. She had clearly been the one taking care of Link earlier. ¡°You scared all of us previously. Fortunately, it¡¯s not a big problem. The priests said that you¡¯ve just experienced mental shock; you weren¡¯t polluted by the evil beings.¡± ¡°Is that so? I feel like I have lost something very important.¡± Link frowned lightly, stretching out a hand to hold his forehead. His head still felt slightly swollen. He vaguely remembered that he seemed to be the owner of a city and that he had a group ofpanions... But this memory was extremely misty and blurry like a dream. Was it a dream? I shouldn¡¯t have those experiences. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Even if this world is being destroyed, I will always be with you.¡± Aisha suddenly grabbed Link¡¯s palm, her clear eyes full of determination. Sensing the warmth from Aisha¡¯s palm, Link nodded and stopped thinking. ¡°Thank you, Aisha. You are a good person.¡± The two people were silent for a moment until Aisha¡¯s face was stained with crimson. She let go of Link¡¯s palm and turned around with slight embarrassment. ¡°Ling, you¡¯re probably hungry. I¡¯ll go get you some food.¡± Link shook his head. ¡°I¡¯m not. How long was I out? How¡¯s the situation now?¡± Aisha paused in her steps, and a sad voice sounded in Link¡¯s heart. ¡°You were in aa for a day; the situation has been worsening constantly. Another sage died. Now, there is only the great sage and Lanzhi Sage left in the Holy City.¡± Link struggled to get up and wanted to get out of the bed. ¡°I got it; I want to go to the frontline and protect the Holy City as well.¡± Aisha shook her head. ¡°Currently, the Holy City¡¯s line of defense is still considered stable. Those evil beings haven¡¯tunched an attack for now. Right now, there is another matter that is even more important. The great sage and high priest have gathered all surviving nsmen to go pray before the Enlightenment Temple tomorrow. They hope to gather everyone¡¯s strength of faith to contact the gods and have them help us end this fearsome cmity.¡± Link nodded. ¡°The gods will appear, right?¡± ¡°They definitely will. The sea gods have been protecting us all this time. Besides, this is An. He will definitely save us.¡± Aisha¡¯s tone was steadfast. ... The next day, at the huge square in front of the Enlightenment Temple. The survivors prayed toward a perfectly pure, purple-colored crystal before the temple, their countenances extremely sincere. Such crystals carried immense strength; the entire race¡¯s neuralwork was built depending onrge amounts of crystals. It allowed theirmunication and transmission of information to be extremely quick. Civilization was also able to develop at a high rate. Link and Aisha were also among the crowd. When connected to the entire race¡¯s psychologicalwork, one would be able to hear all the prayers that came from the heart. In front of the temple, the great sage, Lanzhi Sage, and the high priest also silently carried out ritual procedures, hoping to be able to contact their gods. With the crowd¡¯s sincere prayers, streaks of invisible strength of faith gathered and blended. The purple crystal indistinctly released starlight. The high priest chanted ancient incantations. The starlight on the purple crystal swiftly condensed and finally turned into a massive pir of light, connecting the ground, the deep sea, and the sky. At this moment, all the survivors lifted their heads to look up at this huge pir of light. Hope was all over their faces. The high priest sat down before the pir of light and began meditating tomunicate with the gods. The great sage¡¯s dignified voice also sounded in the psychologicalwork. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, everyone. The gods can hear all of our sincere prayers; He will definitely save us!¡± Chapter 192: Abandoned Believers of the God! Breached City!

Chapter 192: Abandoned Believers of the God! Breached City!

Link stood in the crowd, listening to the prayers that sounded in the psychologicalwork. He indistinctly sensed a strange feeling. It seemed like he didn¡¯t belong here; he was out of harmony with everything around him. Was it an illusion? All of a sudden, Link felt the watching of a gaze. He turned his head slightly and met a pair of deep eyes. The look emitted from that pair of eyes was asmanding as the vast skies, yet they also carried a deep ocean-like profoundness. Link¡¯s countenance froze slightly¡ªthat was the great sage¡¯s gaze. On the tall tform in front of the Enlightenment Temple, the great sage and Link¡¯s gazes met. For a moment, it was as if the surrounding nsmen had turned into a gray background. The great sage¡¯s eyes seemed to carry inexplicable contemtion, but it was fleeting, and he quickly looked away. The strange feeling in Link¡¯s heart grew stronger. Right now, he was even more certain that he must¡¯ve lost something. Suddenly, a jarring rm sounded¡ªit was the golden bell hanging in the center of the Holy City. In usual times, it would swing by itself, issuing moving notes. This allowed the entire city to be immersed in gentle music. However, the present ringing was hurried and sharp; it made everyone¡¯s heartstrings tense instantly! A piece of appalling bad news swiftly spread through the psychologicalwork! ¡°Alert! Whole city alert! Evil beings! The evil beings have attacked the city! The outer defense line has been breached¡ªthe outer city has fallen!¡± The tens of thousands of people in the square instantly turned restless! ¡°How could this be? Wasn¡¯t it previously said that the evil beings had eased their offense?¡± ¡°This is the Holy City, An¡ªthend protected by the god, the god¡¯s pce. It is extremely sturdy; how could the outer city be breached so quickly?¡± ¡°Evil beings! My parents and younger brother all died in their hands...¡± ¡°Where is our god? Has the high priest not managed to contact Him? Why is He still not showing up to save His children?¡± Some people shouted in surprise. Some people shuddered in fear. Others were reminded of the painful memories that were mixed with blood and tears and were crying out loud. The psychologicalwork was filled with all sorts of noisy sounds and became extremely chaotic. Link furrowed his brows; he almost wanted to cut off his connection to the public psychologicalwork. Aisha¡ªwho was at the side¡ªwas deathly pale. Fear and resentment had risen in her eyes, and her small hand was gripping the corner of his clothes tightly. The majority of the people directed their gazes toward the high priest, who was seated and meditating before the pir of light. The periphery of the Holy City was already breached. In the arduous battle thatsted multiple months, the majority of the high-level Mages and Warriors had been worn away. Everybody in the square was people with insignificant capabilities; they could only ce their hopes on the sea god¡¯s remedy. Tens of thousands of gazes gathered on the high priest like spotlights. The high priest¡ªwho was meditating¡ªseemed to be able to sense the situation of the outside world. Beads of sweat covered his aged forehead; He had clearly already done all in his power. All of a sudden, the high priest¡¯s countenance turned pale at once. His body started shaking, and fresh blood even flowed from his ears and nose. This was an expression of drained mental strength and vitality! Hints of deep worry that couldn¡¯t be dissolved had emerged on the faces of the great sage and Lanzhi Sage at the side. A few breathster, the high priest opened his eyes, but he didn¡¯t say anything. Facing the gazes of countless people, he only lowered his head dejectedly. But the people had already caught sight of his face that had instantly aged and the deep exhaustion and despair in his eyes. He has failed... The god didn¡¯t respond; He has abandoned His children! We¡¯ve be the god¡¯s abandoned children! Boom! As if they were struck by lightning, everyone¡¯s minds instantly went ck. Only buzzing ceaselessly sounded by their ears. The race¡¯s public psychologicalwork suddenly became quiet. The drop of a needle could be heard; it was a deathly stillness. Despair and fear blew across everyone¡¯s hearts like the wind and grew madly in there. Countenances of countless people became ashen. Death-like despair spread in their eyes and almost flowed out of their sockets. Their hope was as great as the disappointment. Their hopes in their god had ultimately led to despair! Someone howled like he had gone mad. ¡°We no longer have any hope. The Holy City will be annihted; we¡¯re all going to die!¡± ¡°The entire race will be destroyed. We have been abandoned by the sea god! Why? We were so pious!¡± Someoneined about the god¡¯s unjustness. Tears silently slid down faces as sobs, cries, and shouts resounded without a break like the tempestuous tides. The great sage¡ªwho was always dignified and wise¡ªhad his brows tightly knitted,pletely helpless. He knew that it was useless to say anything right now. They were already a group of people without any hope. Link looked at the chaotic square and the despairing crowd. There seemed to be an indistinct stir in his heart as a strong stinging sensation suddenly rose in his mind! Link reached out to hold his head, his face pale. The wind that came blowing already carried the strong scent of fresh blood. Yells and footsteps sounded,ing closer and closer. The inner city¡¯s defense line was hanging by a thread; the Holy City was on the brink of falling. Arge number of people¡ªwho had broken down in the square¡ªburst out crying and fell to the ground. The great sage and Lanzhi Sage charged into the sky, and a vast aura spread from them. They could no longer care to console the crowd¡¯s emotions. They rushed to the defense line with a few Mages. Link squeezed out of the chaotic crowd with Aisha in tow, wanting to head to the defense line as well. However, the evil beings¡¯ speed of attack had far exceeded everyone¡¯s imagination. Buildings abruptly copsed; the evil beings had already torn past the defense lines and surged into the Holy City. Fighters and Mages were forced to fall back and retreat in defeat continuously. Fresh blood spread on the streets endlessly. Link had just walked out of the square when he had smelled the strong metallic and fishy scent. The evil beings¡¯ army was at the end of the road¡¯ there were up to 100 of them. These evil beings that brought cmity all looked extremely strange and wicked. t heads, muddy and convex frog eyes, grayish-green skin¡ªthey were like frogmen. There were even fine fish scales on some of their bodies... In front of this team, there were still a few defeated troops. They were entirely covered in blood; their clothes were tattered, looking extremely miserable. ¡°Run quickly!¡± Snarls sounded in the bottom of Link¡¯s heart, putting him in a trance. Run? Where else can we run to? This was already inside the city; behind him was the Enlightenment Temple andrge numbers of people. They had long had no escape. Shoo shoo! The sound of wind being pierced sounded! Harpoons with seaweed were thrown out. The foul wind came in waves and prated those few defeated troops that were fleeing! The evil beings came running excitedly and tore into the delicacies before them with strangeughter. Flesh was torn, and blood sttered. The evil beings were like wild beasts pouncing on their prey. Attracted by the bodies, they surrounded them inyers. And the remaining evil beings had their eyes on Link and Aisha, who were in the distance. Roars exploded by their ears¡ªthe great sage and Lanzhi Sage were already fighting the powerhouses among the evil beings. People who could be addressed as sages were powerful existences who had reached the Sage-stage. Hence, themotion of the battle was huge. Beside him, Aisha¡¯s body was stiff. Her face was ghastly pale, clearly terrified by the bloody scene before her eyes. The evil beings pounced over with screams; this was a hopeless situation... Chapter 193: Hopeless Situation? Being-Towards-Death!

Chapter 193: Hopeless Situation? Being-Towards-Death!

Link¡¯s brows were knitted tightly, and his headache became even more intense. He urgently needed the strength to change the current situation. The gaze of Aisha¡ªwho was beside him¡ªchanged. Gritting her teeth, she suddenly pushed Link away. A voice sounded in Link¡¯s heart through the psychological connection. ¡°Run quickly; there should be city guardsing over very soon. Run towards the square; go to where there are many nsmen!¡± Link watched as the girl before him curled up the corner of her lips at him and revealed a poignant smile, looking just like a beautiful flower that was about to wilt. Aisha stared deeply at Link as if she wanted to imprint his appearance in her mind. In the next instant, she abruptly dashed toward those hideous and evil monsters. She actually wanted to use her life to buy time for Link! The monsters¡ªwhose forms were abination of frogmen and fishmen¡ªcame closer and closer. Foul wind hit their faces as sinister snarls filled the streets. Under such a savage background, Aisha¡¯s slender figure appeared to be exceedingly delicate like a moth flying into a fire¡ªit would be instantly devoured by the mes! p! At this moment, Link seemed to hear a soft cracking from within his body! It was as though some kind of shackle was broken, and a small gap had emerged. A warm current flowed through his whole body, bringing an abundant sense of strength. The grim situation gave no space for thought. Link tugged off the package on his bag; in it was a de with purple crystals mounted. This de was something that Link had prepared in order to respond to a crisis at any moment after he had regained consciousness yesterday. Now, it happened toe in handy. Magic flowed out and poured into the de. The purple crystals on the de instantly bloomed with a brilliant purple radiance! Using the purple crystals to amplify magic, buff weapons, or release spells¡ªthis was the mainstream style ofbat in the n. Link¡¯s figure leaped out like a sharp arrow that left the bow; he was multiple steps ahead of Aisha and met with an evil being that hade pouncing first. This evil being opened its mouth. Sharp fangs tore out of the mouth cavity, and sticky, foul saliva dripped continuously. Those turbid frog eyes were filled with madness and despise. Strange snarls came from its mouth, delivering its desperate desire to feed. ¡°Food! Kill!¡± A long spear made of unknown material, radiating an aura that disgusted one, came thrusting toward Link ruthlessly! Aisha watched the scene before her eyes; there was no longer any color in her small face. ¡°No!¡± She shouted in panic; the heart in her chest contracted violently as if it were missing a piece. It was a suffocating pain! To her, these evil beings were enough to rival the race¡¯s Stage Three Warriors. How could Ling be their match? Aisha didn¡¯t want to see the uing bleak scene! But Link¡¯s expression was indifferent. He was deep in a hopeless situation; he had no experience of fighting in his memory at all. But at this moment, there wasn¡¯t the slightest nervousness and fear in his heart; there was only surging killing intent in his chest. It was as if he was instinctively used to and adapted tobat! Piak! At the instant the long spear came close, Link nted his foot hard, and his figure took off like a wild goose. Amidst the sound of wind breaking, the de in Link¡¯s hand drew a purple arc! Crack! Stale blood spurted! This evil being¡¯s head was directly shed off by Link and rolled on the ground! An evil being died instantly, and Link had only struck once! Aisha¡ªwho was behind Link¡ªwas stunned at once. The sight before her eyes had put her in disbelief; she was even shocked by it! Ling actually killed an evil being! How could this be? Has Ling¡¯s magic attainments broken through Stage Three to reach the standard of a n warrior? But even a n warrior wouldn¡¯t be able to cut off an evil being¡¯s head so easily, right? Aisha was extremely surprised, but the crisis hadn¡¯t been averted. The evil beings behind followed. Other than a few evil beings that were attracted by the corpse of their kind and stopped to gnaw on the corpse, the remaining three evil beings all came pouncing toward Link. Two harpoons carrying a strong fishy scent tore through the air and came piercing at Link¡¯s head! The arm of the remaining evil being turned into a long cirrus. Like a steel whip, it broke the air and came sweeping! Set off by the three evil beings, Link appeared to be extremely thin and weak, even a little tragic. He seemed like a tiny boat inside a storm¡ªit would be smashed to pieces by the huge and violent waves in an instant! Aisha¡¯s delicate body shook, and the rim of her eyes was red. However, the subsequent scene exceeded her expectations; it even made Aisha¡¯s eyes widen abruptly. Under the joint attack, she saw Link¡¯s figure swiftly moving like a phantom. The de in his hands even had a brilliant purple glow; it was like a passing beauty that constantly changed. Link easily dodged the two harpoons that came thrusting. With a purple radiance, his de harshly chopped down on the cirrus that came striking! Boom! With an explosion, a section of the hideous cirrus that was full of suckers was directly ripped off. The evil being let out a piteous shriek and quickly retracted the cirrus. Link turned and swung out a strike. It collided with a harpoon, releasing a loud ring! This evil being¡¯s weapon directly shook and was sent flying out of its grip by Link. Its tall body also retreated continuously, the turbid frog eyes filled with surprise. Link seized the chance to switch his attack target to another monster holding a harpoon. His offensive was swift and violent like thunder. Crack! A sound¡ªwhich resembled ripping¡ªreverberated. The fish scales on this monster crumbled, and half of its body was shed off. Foul blood sshed all over the ground! With one meritorious strike, Link did a long-range raid with the de behind him, and another strikended! In the purple glow¡¯s trail, another monster¡¯s corpse fell to the ground heavily! Evident fear shed across the eyes of the remaining fishman monster, which had a mutated arm. Its body actually moved backward! Aisha¡¯s small mouth was slightly agape, surprise written all over her face. She had never heard about these insane, brutal monsters knowing fear. Link had no intentions of letting that fishman off. His body leaped forward, and a purple radiance constantly magnified in the monster¡¯s eyes! Filthy blood sttered, and the three monsters¡¯ corpsesid in disarray! Link stood proudly with his de; his body was upright like a spear as he coldly faced the 100-odd monsters behind him. He was like a true demon lord! At this moment, footsteps sounded¡ªthe city guards had arrived. The Holy City¡¯s defense line was breached, and arge number of monsters swarmed in. These warriors were constantly salvaging situations in various areas of the city. When these warriors saw the scene before them, they couldn¡¯t help the change in expression. Foul fresh blood was everywhere. With four monster bodiesying around as he faced close to 100 monsters, this demon lord-like youth shocked their souls. ¡°You have done well. Good job, hand it to us from here.¡± After faltering slightly, the leader of the city guards praised Link and waved his hands, signaling for hispanions behind him to fight alongside him. The addition of about 100 city guards brought an instant change to the situation. Link didn¡¯t stop either; he charged toward that group of monsters with these warriors. Fighting screams immediately exploded on the streets! After a fight, there were now about ten of the hundred-odd monsters left. But right then, a snarl clearly entered everyone¡¯s ears. The warriors lifted their heads at the sound and saw a dense crowd of monsters swarming in their direction¡ªit was a stretch of ck! The city guard leader¡¯s countenance changed. He quicklymanded, ¡°Retreat! Retreat! There are too many evil beings; get the high priest to activate the array formation in the Enlightenment Temple and stop this group of evil beings!¡± Chapter 194: Return of the Holy One! Isolated Island!

Chapter 194: Return of the Holy One! Isted Ind!

Arge number of evil beings rushed in. The Holy City¡¯s defense line seemed to havepletely copsed. Link and Aisha followed a group of guards back to the square. Due to the convenientmunication ability of the public psychologicalwork, the guards had already contacted the high priest. After the high priest learned of the situation, it was clear that the very survival of the group was at stake. He immediately led several priests to begin chanting and activate the formation. One by one, mysterious runes appeared around the square. With the high priest and the others¡¯ chanting, a loud rumbling sound was heard. The sand and rocks upon the ground crumbled, constantly surging. Huge, square stone pirs rose from the surrounding square. The magic within them shone brilliantly, and they appeared tall and majestic. Each stone pir looked extremely simple and ancient. Each emitted a curtain of light that connected with that of another stone pir to jointly build a huge defense field. Link and the others quickly entered the inside of the defensive formation. In the square, arge number of people¡ªwhose hopes had been shattered¡ªslumped on the ground with dull expressions. Their grief was greater than death. The sea god¡¯s abandonment made them feel hopeless about the future and fall into despair. These people were drenched in decadence and defeat. They were just like despondent puddles of mud. Others sensed the approach of danger. They heard the roar of monsters from outside the defensive formation; their expressions were fearful and anxious. In addition to the guards that Link encountered, several other teams also came to the square one after another and entered the defensive formation. Without exception, most of these fighters were in a pathetic state and covered with wounds. The army of demons pouring into the Holy City gradually surrounded the huge square. The ferocious monsters gathered together like a surging ck wave. Theypletely cut off the ce, turning it into an isted ind. The monsters roared as they used their spears, harpoons, fangs, and their bodies to bombard the defensive light curtain continuously. Golden ripples rippled across the light curtain¡¯s surface due to the bombardment, sending fear into the hearts of the people who watched. Fortunately, the defensive formation here was extraordinary. As arge formation of the Enlightenment Temple, it had been nourished by the faith of many people for thousands of years. Even a godly existence would find it hard to break through in a short time. Coupled with the high priest and several high-ranking priests¡¯ blessings, it would temporarily remain stable even in the face of the army of evil beings. But therge number of demons surrounding them outside the defensive light curtain still brought deep despair and great panic to everyone. Everyone knew that the defensive formation was only temporary and wouldn¡¯t exist forever. They were just dying the inevitable. Once the formation¡¯s energy had been exhausted, the defense would be broken, and what awaited them would be their destruction. Inside the defensive light curtain, the atmosphere was extremely solemn. Everyone¡¯s faces were a little gray, and their eyes were dull¡ªthey looked lifeless. Some people leaned on each other and wept; others sat on the floor with their faces as gray as death. Suddenly, a violent roar sounded, attracting everyone¡¯s attention. Link looked toward the sound source and saw a wave of bright energy sweeping through, turning the evil beings with their teeth and ws into a pool of minced meat in an instant. It was the act of a powerhouse at the Sage-stage. Every blow was terrifying and overwhelmingly powerful! Two powerful auras approached quickly. ¡°It¡¯s the great sage and the Lanzhi Sage, as well as a team. They have returned with a team of guards.¡± ¡°This should be thest group of city guards who haven¡¯t entered the square yet.¡± ... Everyone suddenly started talking. Under the two holy-rank powerhouses¡¯ attacks, the army of evil beings surrounding the defensive light curtain was exterminated, and that team was able to enter the defensive array. With the arrival of thisrge team, the square¡ªwhich already had little space¡ªbecame more and more crowded. Numerousints suddenly sounded in the psychologicalwork. However, the two sages¡¯ return finally brought a trace offort to themoners¡¯ panicked hearts. Many people wanted to know what they should do next. The great sage didn¡¯t answer, only asking people to treat the wounded as soon as possible instead. Even he didn¡¯t have a better way to deal with the current situation. He could only defend everyone the best he could. Although he was a Sage-stage powerhouse, there were opponents who were of the same level as him among the evil beings. There were even some who were more terrifying... There was suddenly amotion in the crowd, and cry after cry of exmation sounded! ¡°Aberrating! Someone is aberrating!¡± ¡°He has been in contact with those creatures and has been contaminated by the evil!¡± The crowd quickly retreated, freeing up space around the man. There, a warrior¡ªwho had fought with the evil beings¡ªwas lying on the ground and panting violently. His face had be hideous and abnormal. Fine fish scales gradually appeared, and bulges appeared on his body. His body mutated uncontrobly. ¡°Kill him; he cannot be saved,¡± a guardmander ordered grimly. But the surrounding guard soldiers didn¡¯t act immediately. There was an unwilling and sad sh in their eyes. That was arade who had just fought alongside them. How could they bear to do it? Link watched all this unfold. Just as he was about to take action to end the soldier¡¯s pain, the captain took a step forward and cut off the mutant soldier¡¯s head with a single sh. Soon afterward, a mage stepped forward and condensed a few fireballs, turning the broken corpse into ashes. A group of fighters stood silently, mourning their teammate. But there was a strange look in the eyes of the many people around them when they looked at the fighters. Many people even started to stealthily move away from this group of warriors, who had fought against the evil beings. They were worried that they would be polluted and be monsters. It just so happened that guards had been fighting against evil for a long time, and many of them had been corroded and polluted by the evil auras. Another soldier aberrated and even attacked the people. He was stopped by the guards and was quickly killed. But this incident instantly ignited the dissatisfaction and panic in the hearts of many people like a spark. Many discordant voices suddenly spoke up in the psychologicalwork. ¡°People who have been in contact with evil beings should not be allowed in. Entering the defensive formation is also dangerous. Who knows when they will be monsters?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right; aren¡¯t you warriors? Go outside and fight with those demons then!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t affect us; you¡¯re contaminating us and turning us into monsters!¡± ¡°It¡¯s all your fault for being useless. You let us be surrounded by evil beings. What right do you have to enter the defensive formation?¡± ... The situation gradually intensified, and these dissatisfiedints finally turned into a single voice. ¡°Everyone who hase into contact with evil beings should get out. Don¡¯t bring the pollution into the formation!¡± Many people began to drive away the guards who used their lives and blood to protect them. They wanted to drive the guards out of the defensive formation, wanted them to drag their broken bodies and continue fighting with the monsters. This was tantamount to sending them to their deaths! As people who had been in contact with evil beings, Link and Aisha were also targeted! Chapter 195: We Are Different! Making a Stand!

Chapter 195: We Are Different! Making a Stand!

Looking at the agitated crowd, Link knew that the danger of the aberrating soldiers was just an excuse¡ªan excuse for the people to vent all kinds of negative feelings. The aberrated could be suppressed and killed, but the human heart was hard to predict. It wasn¡¯t that there was no opposition to this approach, but these voices of reason were too sporadic and were soon drowned out by the raging debate. Under such a situation, the majority was always blinded. The only way for individuals to feel more secure in the group was to go with the flow. Thus, as the conflict intensified, many soldiers¡¯ faces appeared extremely awkward. Some of them were pale, and their lips trembled. Some clenched their teeth, trying to suppress the anger within their chests. Most were confused and astounded, deeply disappointed. They simply couldn¡¯t understand why they would receive such treatment when they had been fighting the army of evil beings with their lives. The people, whom they had been trying to protect, were forcing them to their deaths? What had they been protecting with their blood and lives? Was this all worth it? Those words were like a sharp de, fiercely piercing the soldiers¡¯ hearts. It hurt their hearts and made their expressions bitter! However, they had no way to rebuke them because the damage didn¡¯te from the enemy, but from behind, from the people they guarded... The hearts of many soldiers clenched painfully, but there was nothing they could do. Quarrels broke out in the psychologicalwork. There were even soldiers who almost shed with some people. A guard general stood up and stopped the angry and wronged soldiers. The guard general stood in front of the soldiers and said grimly, ¡°Don¡¯t forget that we are soldiers. Don¡¯t forget our duties.¡± He was Regus, a Stage Six powerhouse; he was highly regarded in the army. The moment he appeared, the angry soldiers lowered their heads and stopped arguing. After he spoke, Regus turned his head and took a long look at the people behind him; then, he walked straight out of the defensive formation. Although the actions of these people made him very angry, Regus knew that he and the guards did have the risk of aberrating, which made these people fearful. Leaving the defensive formation at this time meant certain death, but Regus¡¯s footsteps were still firm, even calm. At least this is my choice. I die for my beliefs. Regus shook his head slightly and spoke silently in his mind. Although inevitably disappointed, he was willing to give his all, including his own life, for his race and their protection! Many of the used soldiers turned silent when they saw Regus walking out. Some even had tears at the corner of their eyes that fell silently... Many soldiers couldn¡¯t bear this great grievance and pressure and followed Regus out of their own ord, walking out of the defensive formation. The people¡ªwho had gotten what they wanted¡ªsmiled happily behind them. ¡°It should¡¯ve been like this long ago! This group of good-for-nothings shouldn¡¯t havee in!¡± ¡°This group of soldiers didn¡¯t protect the Holy City well. They let the Holy City fall and still carry pollution and aberration on their bodies. Are they trying to drag us down with them?¡± ¡°They might have already gone to the side of evil and be theirckeys.¡± ... Each of those voices made the soldiers clench their fists secretly, a knife twisting in their hearts. The two sages and the high priest seemed to be discussing something. They entered the temple and had yet toe out. Seeing that many fighters were about to leave the defensive formation, a figure suddenly stretched out his hand and blocked Regus¡¯s way. That figure was, surprisingly, Link. Regus¡¯s heart fluttered, and his eyes became fixed on the determined face of the young man in front of him. A flicker of doubt shed in his eyes. Link didn¡¯t seem to be a soldier of the city guards, but he held a weapon stained with filthy blood in his hand. It was obvious that he had killed evil beings before. He was a courageous and responsible tribe member. ¡°It shouldn¡¯t be you and your men who should leave,¡± Link said coldly. Regus¡¯s eyes suddenly softened, and warmth rose in his heart. Someone still remembers our efforts after all. Regus was about to say something when he suddenly saw the young man jump out, his figure as fast as lightning! Regus was momentarily taken aback. He wondered what the young man was going to do. Link didn¡¯t allow the people to get their way. He rushed into the crowd and quickly dragged two figures out. The two of them had been moring in joy on the psychologicalwork. Now that they were suddenly dragged out, both of them were a little confused as their bodies were suspended in mid-air! ¡°What are you doing? What are you going to do to me! Are you crazy?¡± ¡°You are not dressed as a soldier. Have you also been contaminated by evil, or are you a traitor who has aligned himself with the evil beings!?¡± ¡°Stop, are you hurting civilians? The sages won¡¯t let you off!¡± The two of them screamed in panic and threw all kinds of usations at Link. However, Link couldn¡¯t be bothered with them. He just dragged them toward the edge of the formation. For a while, the psychologicalwork was quiet. Everyone¡¯s attention had been attracted by Link¡¯s actions. Many people looked astonished; they didn¡¯t even think of stopping Link. Link brought the two people up in front of the light curtain and allowed them to clearly see the demons with their teeth and ws outside. The two men almost freaked out. They thought that Link was going to throw them out of the formation, and they started struggling frantically. The defensive formation was able to restrict the evil beings¡¯ ess to them, but once outside, there would be none. As long as the young man who was holding them wanted to, they could be thrown out to feed the evil beings. But no matter how these two people struggled, the hands holding them were like iron hoops. They couldn¡¯t break free at all! In fact, because of Link¡¯s actions, many evil beings were gathered outside this area. Their mouths were wide open as if waiting to be fed. ¡°No! Don¡¯t throw us out! Please!¡± The two men suddenly sagged, begging Link for mercy. They were no longer in the collected state they were before, when they were posturing and moring in the psychologicalwork. Link was expressionless as he directly threw these two people to the ground. He didn¡¯t actually throw them out. ¡°Weren¡¯t you very happily moring before? What right do you have to me those soldiers who shed blood for the people?¡± With that said, Link turned his head and scanned the crowd. His icy eyes looked like two cold stars, inexplicably majestic! Those people who had spoken badly to the soldiers before suddenly felt chills in their hearts when they caught Link¡¯s gaze and quickly lowered their heads. ¡°The city guards don¡¯t deserve to stay here? Then, what right do you have to stand here? Just because of your cowardice and because you only dare to be arrogant and unreasonable to your fellow men?!¡± The sound of words vibrated in the air, and many people lowered their heads. Some of them turned red and felt humiliated. Someone said, ¡°You are also a civilian; you are the same as us.¡± The soldiers who had fought alongside Link before suddenly stood up. ¡°He¡¯s different from you; he killed more than a dozen evil beings!¡± As soon as these words were said, the people suddenly had nothing more to say... Chapter 196: Decision to Join the Evil Beings

Chapter 196: Decision to Join the Evil Beings

The young man in front of them was different from them. He had personally joined the fight and fought against the evil beings! Many people were shocked; the surprise showed on their faces, and their expressions changed. There were also people who had doubts. After all, everyone knew how cruel evil beings were. Killing so many evil beings was simply unimaginable! How could an ordinary young man do it? However, the young man¡¯s weapons and clothes were indeed stained with the filthy blood of evil beings. They didn¡¯t seem to have been faked. This was a vicious man! The people fell silent. Link looked at the speechless people and said solemnly, ¡°Don¡¯t let the heroes shed blood and tears as well!¡± With those words, Link stopped talking. He just stood silently, tall and straight like a spear. The words reverberated through the air, stately and dignified. It deafened and shook the hearts of all the people. Many people bowed their heads in shame with guilty expressions on their faces. One stone caused a thousand waves, and many people responded. ¡°Yes! The city guards shed blood to protect us, and many even lost their lives. How can we let them cry?¡± ¡°We can¡¯t let the heroes cry; the city guards shouldn¡¯t have to go out!¡± ¡°Yes, we were wrong before, and we med the heroes who have given so much...¡± ¡°Heroes are the most qualified to stay in the defensive formation. What right do we have to make them leave?¡± ... Voices of reason started speaking up in the psychologicalwork. They apologized and supported the city guard soldiers. Smiles reappeared on the bitter city guards¡¯ faces. At the same time, they all looked at Link¡ªwho had spoken up for them¡ªgratefully. Regus was also looking at Link, his eyes full of gratitude. ¡°Thank you.¡± Link shook his head slightly. ¡°This is what I should do. Let¡¯s deal with the pollution and aberration as soon as possible.¡± Regus nodded and said nothing more. He was a vigorous and resolute fighter, and he knew that kindness should be remembered and not harped on. Aisha was standing beside Link at this time. There was an unnatural glow in her beautiful eyes as she gazed at Link. Her petite face couldn¡¯t help but be admiring, and her smile gradually became silly... Orders were soon issued, and Regus asked the soldiers to settle the wounded. In addition, soldiers who were showing signs of pollution would be strictly guarded to prevent dangerous situations from arising. At this time, the situation was still not optimistic, but there was a little more harmony as the warmth of mutual understanding bloomed within the light curtain. ¡°You did well.¡± A kind voice suddenly sounded in Link¡¯s mind. Link was momentarily taken aback. He turned to look toward the temple; that was the voice of the great sage. Were the sages watching what happened in silence? Just as Link was thinking, a loud noise suddenly came from the direction of the temple. It sounded as if a fight had taken ce! The people and the city guards cast their eyes on the temple, their faces full of disbelief and surprise. There were two sages and the high priest in the temple. How could there be a fight? Boom! Under everyone¡¯s astonished gazes, the top of the temple suddenly began to shatter. Broken stones flew everywhere, and the brilliance of magic red. With terrifying force, a figure rushed out of the temple. He stood proudly in the void as circles of dark-blue magic ripples spread out from him. ¡°It¡¯s the Lanzhi Sage! How can a fight break out in the temple? Has an evil being invaded the temple?¡± someone eximed. Soon, a few more figures came out of the shattered temple. They were the great sage, the high priest, and several high-level guards. The high priest and the great sage rose up into the sky. They faced off the Lanzhi Sage with them on one side and him on the other! ¡°What happened?¡± ¡°What on earth happened?¡± Many people were shocked. They were aware of the tension between the three powerhouses. It seemed that the earliermotion was due to the three powerhouses attacking. The Lanzhi Sage stood proudly in the sky, looking down at the crowd. His deep gaze lingered on Link, somewhat angry and hostile. Link was a little baffled. Aisha also noticed the gaze. Confused, she asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with the Lanzhi Sage?¡± Many people were at a loss and couldn¡¯t figure out what was happening. The Lanzhi Sage in the void suddenly spoke. His voice was extremely powerful, reverberating in everyone¡¯s mind. ¡°Everyone, our Holy City has fallen, and it has been abandoned by the gods. We have no future...¡± His words seemed to have a certain magical power that aroused everyone¡¯s emotions. Everyone¡¯s mind whirled nonstop. Scene after scene of misery appeared in their mind. A wave of despair and sorrow spread uncontrobly. ¡°But for the continuation of the group, I will make a sacrifice. I¡¯m willing to bear all the sins and punishments for the survival of the group!¡± As the Lanzhi Sage spoke, the blue magic halo surging around his body quickly turned gray. It even seemed weird and evil. His body was also undergoing abnormal changes at this moment. His face was distorted, and there were protruding fangs and bulging eyes! One arm even turned into a thick tentacle. Most of his body appeared to be bulging as if something was squirming under the skin! This was an aberration¡ªhe was degenerating into an evil being! Everyone¡¯s expressions changed drastically; their eyes almost popped out of their sockets! Boom! It was an unexpected turn of events. It crashed on everyone¡¯s head like thunder, leaving their heads nk. All they could hear was the buzzing in their ears! Their heads buzzed! If it weren¡¯t because they knew who the Lanzhi Sage was, everyone would¡¯ve thought that the thing appearing in front of them was a powerful evil being! A holy-rank existence, the race¡¯s guardian and top powerhouse¡ªLanzhi Sage¡ªhad aberrated! At this moment, everyone suddenly understood what the sacrifice the Lanzhi Sage was talking about was! He was willing to fall¡ªto aberrate and be one of the evil beings. By doing so, he would be one of the evil beings in exchange for the right to survive. Everyone¡¯s expressions became extremelyplicated. They felt as if their minds had been hit by a hurricane, which caused turbulent waves and raging storms. And Lanzhi Sage was still speaking, not caring if anyone was listening. ¡°Those who are willing to follow me and live on while carrying the burden of sin and punishment, stand up! This is our hope for life and hope. Your life and death depend on your own choice!¡± With those words, the Lanzhi Sage¡ªwho had aberrated into an evil being¡ªsuddenly smiled. His smile was extremely hideous and terrifying. At the same time, the great sage¡¯s majestic and steady voice sounded in everyone¡¯s mind. ¡°It¡¯s a pity that the Lanzhi Sage has also been aberrated. However, falling from grace and bing one of the evil beings is not salvation¡ªit is the way to the abyss. You will lose everything and be part of the madness. My people, I hope you will not make the wrong decision.¡± The voice of the great sage reverberated in everyone¡¯s mind, eliminating all the negative effects brought about by the Lanzhi Sage¡¯s words just now. Everyone came back to their senses one after another, and there were two roads before them. Life and death, persistence and madness... Chapter 197: Above Sage-Stage! Chaos!

Chapter 197: Above Sage-Stage! Chaos!

After more than ten seconds of silence, everyone recovered from their horror, and there was an uproar in the psychologicalwork! Even the Sage-stage Lanzhi Sage had fallen to the side of the evil beings! Was there really no hope? How should they choose? Many people¡¯s faces were in a trance and full of sluggishness. Suddenly, a sonorous voice sounded. ¡°I, Regus¡ªeven if I shed thest drop of blood and all of my bones are shattered¡ªI will also never sumb to the evil beings who trampled on the homes of our people!¡± Regus¡ªthe general of the city guards¡ªlooked at the aberrated Lanzhi Sage coldly, his face full of disgust. As soon as these words came out, the other guards also responded and agreed with him. ¡°Yes, even if we die, we won¡¯t side with those evil beings!¡± ¡°Our race will never be ves!¡± ¡°I would rather die standing than side with the evil beings!¡± ¡°The evil demons killed my rtives, friends, andpatriots. Such a blood feud can only end with a battle to the death!¡± ¡°Fight to the death!¡± ... The words ¡®fighting to the death¡¯ sounded, and the city guards¡¯ eyes were full of turbulent fighting spirit and deep-seated hatred. The auras emitting from them were vast and majestic! ¡°Ridiculous!¡± An ear-piercing voice sounded from the sky. Lanzhi Sage, who had lost his human form, let out a weirdugh that sounded like an owl¡¯s cry¡ªit was cold and ear-piercing! He looked at Regus and the other city guards and said coldly, ¡°Don¡¯t forget who asked you guys to leave the defensive spell formation just now. These people aren¡¯t worth sacrificing your lives for! It¡¯s better to follow me, survive, and ensure the continuity of our race!¡± Link narrowed his eyes slightly. Hearing this really made his blood boil from anger. It¡¯s no wonder that this traitor stared at me just now; it¡¯s because he nned on stirring up conflicts between the guards and the civilians. But Link¡¯s previous actions had interrupted the Lanzhi Sage¡¯s n. Upon hearing these words, Regus and the other city guards all looked at Link and smiled. If Link hadn¡¯t stood up for them just now, perhaps many of them might¡¯ve felt disappointed and resentful. As for now, it was unlikely for them to be provoked by just these few words. ¡°I believe that some people will remember the sacrifices we made, and these sacrifices are definitely worth it! We will fight to our death with no regrets!¡± Regus¡¯s eyes were extremely firm. The expressions of all the city guards were also firm-looking. Clenching their weapons tightly, they shouted in a deep voice, ¡°Fight to our death with no regrets!¡± These sonorous words oscited in the psychologicalwork, making everyone¡¯s blood boil and surge. More and more people were affected by the atmosphere, and both the city guards and civilians expressed that they would never give in to the evil spirits! The corners of the great sage¡¯s mouth rose slightly, and there was a gratifying smile on his face. ¡°Let me tell you all how fragile your beliefs are!¡± Lanzhi Sage roared angrily, and a terrifying pressure and evil aura shrouded toward everyone! Circles of ck light spread like ripples with Lanzhi Sage as the center! The pressure and influence of a Sage weren¡¯t things that could be resisted by ordinary people at all! This was the suppression from the difference in their lifeforms; those beneath the Sage-stage were all ants to Sages! Suddenly, everyone¡¯s hearts shrank fiercely as if they had been grasped by a cold hand. It made them feel an indescribable sense of suffocation! The air seemed to turn into a sticky colloid, instantly bing heavy as it restricted everyone¡¯s bodies from moving! Everyone¡¯splexion changed wildly as they felt the terrifying suppression; it was like the sky was copsing. Their heartstrings tensed, and their hair stood on end like a wild cat¡¯s fur when its tail was stepped on! What¡¯s more, some of the people¡¯s bodies couldn¡¯t stop shaking like sifting chaff! The weirdest thing was that everyone seemed to hear inexplicable whispers in their ears as Lanzhi Sage¡¯s aura spread. Corruption and sphemy led the people to madness and depravity! Under the influence, the guards¡ªwho were originally polluted and infected in the first ce¡ªcouldn¡¯t contain the infection anymore, and they quickly began to aberrate. Even some civilians who had never been in close contact with the evil beings also showed symptoms of aberration! Exmations suddenly came from the crowd. ¡°Presumptuous!¡± The great sage snorted coldly. The sound exploded in everyone¡¯s mind like thunder, instantly shaking everyone out of that weird state! Following that, warm and mighty golden rays of light shook and rippled from the great sage, blocking Lanzhi Sage¡¯s influence on the people. Without a second word, the great sage waved his staff, and magical attacks swept toward Lanzhi Sage like a storm! Waves of air sts exploded in the air, but the great sage¡¯s control of energy was obviously extremely delicate, preventing the air sts from affecting anyone. Lanzhi Sage also attacked fiercely; he waved his aberrated arm, bringing out a series of dark light-des! The two of them fought one another in the sky, causing loud explosions to sound continuously. As for the high priest, he was smoothing out the energy ripples and shockwaves resulting from their battle. Otherwise, at such a distance, the people might be killed by these energy waves and shockwaves! Originally, the great sage was the strongest of all the sages. But after Lanzhi Sage aberrated, his power became much greater than before, and it was difficult for the great sage to defeat him in a short period of time. Lanzhi Sage sneered and said, ¡°What do you people know? All of you want to fight to the death, but nothing can be changed through your deaths. There are existences above the Sage-stage on the side of the evil beings! You people don¡¯t understand the real horror of the evil beings at all! Great Sage Oliver, you are pushing the entire race to a dead end!¡± Link¡¯s eyes narrowed when he heard this. Existences above the Sage-stage¡ªthis is probably the reason why Lanzhi Sage was willing to defect to the evil beings¡¯ side. The great sage ignored Lanzhi Sage and just kept attacking. The shocking energy waves from the magic attacks¡¯ residue continued to ripple out from their battle. ¡°Neil!¡± yelled the great sage in a low voice. The high priest¡ªwho had been by the side¡ªimmediately attacked as well. The two of them had joined forces to fight against Lanzhi Sage. The original evenly matched situation was broken, and Lanzhi Sage suddenly fell into a disadvantage. But instead of being panicked, a smirk appeared on his hideous face. Suddenly, several horrifying auras appeared in the crowd! The auras were of corruption and sphemy; they were aberrations like Lanzhi Sage, and their ranks weren¡¯t low. Among them were even three Stage Six Fallen Ones! Lanzhi Sage had obviously arranged for a group of traitors to infiltrate the crowd, who waited for an opportunity to strike! Once this group of Fallen Ones appeared, they immediately caused panic among the civilians! Everyone was shocked; they didn¡¯t expect that the normal people around them would instantly aberrate and attack them! Ordinary warriors weren¡¯t the opponents of these Fallen Ones at all, and the Fallen Ones even had the means to pollute others. Many weak-willed civilians had been affected by them. Regus, as a Stage Six powerhouse of the city guards, immediately flew out and fought with a Stage Six Fallen One. The elite warriors from the city guards and the great sage¡¯s personal guards also flew out and fought against the other powerhouses amongst the Fallen Ones. But there was still a Stage Six Fallen One who had no opponent and was rampaging in the crowd. ¡°Humph! Fools, you people could¡¯ve chosen to follow Lanzhi Sage, but you insist on choosing death!¡± The Fallen One waved his aberrated palm mercilessly and pped the guards in front of him flying. Some people¡ªwho were already wavering¡ªcouldn¡¯t help but give birth to the idea of surrendering at this moment. They started to express their opinions one after another, defecting to the Fallen Ones¡¯ side! The situation instantly became chaotic! Right at this moment, a sudden change urred! Chapter 198: Fight Against a Stage Six! Recovery!

Chapter 198: Fight Against a Stage Six! Recovery!

The great sage in the sky noticed this bad turn of events and was about to help them, but an even more powerful aura suddenly burst out from the aberrated Lanzhi Sage! Circles of dark light rippled from him, and Lanzhi Sage¡¯s body swelled. Part of his flesh and blood exploded, and dancing tentacles drilled out of his body. Following this, Lanzhi Sage¡¯s power also skyrocketed! ¡°Enjoy the stage show I prepared for you all.¡± With a low growl, Lanzhi Sage actually stopped the great sage and the high priest from leaving the battle and returning to the ground by himself by relying on his skyrocketed power. Among the crowd, that Stage Six Fallen One who had nobody to stop him became a nightmare for the people and warriors. The warriors with firm conviction were easily torn apart by him. Panic and despair continued to spread in the hearts of the people! The goal of this Fallen One was also extremely clear, which was to reach the location of the wounded and contaminated warriors. This was to catalyze the pollution of those warriors¡¯ bodies further, make thempletely aberrate, and expand the Fallen Ones¡¯ advantage. Just when the warriors were unable to stop his footsteps, a figure suddenly blocked the front of the Fallen One. This figure was a young man with a long de¡ªiid with amethyst¡ªin his hand. His face was firm, and his figure was tall and straight! It was Link! The Fallen One¡¯s eyes were filled with madness and narrowed slightly, and his hideous face had a bit of a smile on it. ¡°It¡¯s you again! Kid, you are just a civilian. You¡¯re not even a warrior, and you dare to appear in front of me to seek your death?¡± Aisha nervously watched this on one side, her face pale. It should be known that a Stage Six Fallen One was a powerhouse strong enough to be a general of the city guards! Their degree of danger far exceeded that of ordinary evil beings! Link didn¡¯t say a word, only enduring the tingling pain in his mind silently. He slowly raised the long de, with the tip of the de pointing at the Fallen One. During the fight with evil beings just now, Link had already noticed some problems. There seemed to be a shackle or barrier in his body. The abundant power he previously felt had gushed out from the cracks in the shackles, but now he needed more power¡ªenough power to change the current situation! ¡°Kill!¡± With a violent shout, Link used his mental power to charge at the faint barrier in his body. On the other hand, heunched a charge toward the Stage Six Fallen One, his body as swift as lightning! ¡°Humph.¡± The Fallen One snorted coldly, his ugly face full of scorn and contempt. The arms that had transformed into huge tentacles swung out fiercely, causing the air to explode! Boom! Circles of airwaves spread toward the surroundings, and sand and pebbles sshed everywhere! The Fallen One¡¯s attack missed andnded on the ground, but the great destructive power still left deep cracks on the ground. This made the hearts of those who saw this turn cold! Link shed aside, and without any stagnation, charged toward the Fallen One again, quickly approaching the Fallen One. ¡°Oh?! You actually managed to avoid my attack? You won¡¯t be so lucky next time!¡± A look of surprise shed in the Fallen One¡¯s eyes, but he took this to heart. Although the kid in front of him was a little abnormal and actually avoided his attack on instinct, this kid was just a civilian in the end; he could easily kill him! Swoosh! The piercing sound of breaking wind sounded as Link abruptly shed his de while he approached. Using the strength of his spinning body, he poured all his magic and energy into the de! The purple light blooming on the de became more and more radiant suddenly, looking like purple thunder as it smashed down on the Fallen One! A joke-like look shed in the Fallen One¡¯s eyes, and he didn¡¯t dodge Link¡¯s attack. Another giant hand¡ªwhich had expanded several-fold¡ªsuddenly rose and directly grabbed at the de¡¯s sharp edge! With a ¡®chi¡¯ sound, the de collided with the giant palm covered in scales, bringing up a spark. However, it was unable to cause effective damage. On the contrary, the tyrannical force carried by the giant palm created several cracks on the de, making the de give off an ear-rattling humming sound! The cracks expanded at lightning speed. Finally, the de waspletely shattered, and the fragments shot in all directions! Link pulled away from the Fallen One and backed away, only a section of the hilt left in his hand. ¡°Die!¡± Due to failing to kill a civilian after two sessive attacks, the Fallen One was a bit annoyed. With a violent shout, his figure suddenly moved! The huge aberrated body didn¡¯t affect his speed in the slightest. He was like a fast-moving high wall, exuding a huge sense of oppression. His aberrated arm swung out brazenly, bringing out a terrifying airwave. He wanted to crush Link¡¯s head! The faces of the warriors and Aisha¡ªwho were at the sides¡ªchanged, but there was no way to stop the Fallen One. They could only nervously stare at this scene, their hearts rising to their throats. They then saw Link quickly discarding the hilt in his hand before using magic power to control a weapon left by a warrior on the ground, summoning it into his hand. Link¡¯s eyes were extremely cold. Without the slightest panic in the face of desperation, the sword-like weapon in his hand was swung out to meet the Fallen One¡¯s violent attack! Under Link¡¯s infusing of magic power into the weapon, the amethyst iid on the sword shone brightly, and intense sword intent permeated from it! Numerous sharp sword energies appeared, apanying the weapon and colliding with the Fallen One¡¯s giant palm! Amidst the explosion, Link was pushed back by the force. His face was pale, but there was a sh of joy in his eyes. Sword energy! This was a power he had never mastered! With the help of this life-and-death battle, Link could detect that cracks had appeared on the shackles in his body, and turbulent power was pouring out from them! ¡°Again.¡± After confirming the effects of fighting, there wasn¡¯t any way that Link would miss this opportunity. His figure violently moved again, and he actually pounced toward the Fallen One once again, taking the initiative to the extreme! All the warriors were a bit stunned. This kid really is quite fierce! He¡¯s so courageous; does he not want to live anymore? What made them even more surprised and shocked was that this young man was able to fight back and forth against a Stage Six Fallen One! This strength far surpassed most of the city guards! At least, they couldn¡¯t achieve this; they could only be crushed by the Stage Six Fallen One. Anger shed in the Fallen One¡¯s heart at this moment. In his opinion, this young man¡¯s behavior was a kind of provocation. And his multiple failures to kill this person made him feel irritable and uneasy. He could perceive that this ant in front of him seemed to be getting stronger continuously! ¡°Since you are seeking death, I shall fulfill your wish!¡± The Fallen One roared, the corrosive aura all over his body vibrated, and his attack became even more terrifying! Boom! The collisions sounded constantly, the ground shattered, the pebbles were sshing, and the surrounding soldiers and civilians had to retreat far away, in fear of being affected by the stray energies resulting from their battle. During the several collisions and confrontations, Link was suppressed by the Fallen One all the time; there were also many asions where he almost died. Link was like a tboat, constantly swaying in the turbulent storm. He was on the verge of overturning many times, yet he still endured. ¡°Weak ant, have you seen the gap? epting the aberration is the only way for our race to survive!¡± The Fallen One grinned hideously and repelled Link again as he tried to persuade him. At this moment, he was quite shocked. It was obvious that this young man was still very weak previously, but after crossing swords a few times, his strength was increasing continuously! It was incredible! And now, the Fallen One was forced to put away all his contemptuous thoughts and take Link seriously! Link was nomittal. Instead, he rushed forward once again, his biting sword intent shooting into the sky! Chapter 199: Kill a Stage Six! Illuminate the World!

Chapter 199: Kill a Stage Six! Illuminate the World!

Overwhelming sword intent flushed toward the Fallen One. Even though the sword hadn¡¯t arrived, he could still feel an extremely sharp sense piercing toward him! It was like something was pricking him; he felt a faint tingling pain like needles were poking him all over his body. His mind tensed up, instinctively aware of some danger approaching. A solemn look shed through the Fallen One¡¯s muddy eyes. The sense of danger stimted his remaining sanity, making him even more angry and crazy. These people deserve to die! All who oppose us deserve to die! The reason we defected was clearly to preserve thest hope for our race, so why are these people still resisting? ¡°You are seeking death!¡± yelled the Fallen One wildly as the flesh and blood on his body exploded, and the number of aberrated body parts on his body grew even more! Numerous bloodshot eyes opened on his body, and an evil, filthy aura emanated through the air. The ground under his feet seemed to melt, turning into ck mud; it was even bubbling continuously. A secretive and indescribable whisper faintly sounded as if someone was whispering in the dark. It was extremely terrifying! The faces of the warriors a little further away changed drastically, and the hair all over their bodies exploded and stood on end. A chill from their cyx rushed to their heads and made their scalps numb! ¡°This is a domain¡ªthe domain of the Fallen Ones! What a terrifying and filthy scent!¡± eximed a warrior, his face pale. Domains were an ability that could only be disyed by those of Stage Five and above. It could greatly increase one¡¯s strength, and they possessed all kinds of unpredictable powers! Unless their opponents were same-level powerhouses and used their domains to resist the other party¡¯s domain, a Stage Six powerhouse was practically invincible within the range of their own domain after they released it! It was like an extremely bright red word that read ¡®danger¡¯ had appeared on Link¡¯s head and was constantly shing. However, Link didn¡¯t think of retreating at all and barged into the Fallen One¡¯s domain. p! The moment he stepped into the domain, Link felt a strong suppression. The mud under his feet and a filthy scent were continuously attacking him, making his actions stagnant and difficult. In his domain, the Fallen One was like the master of this ce. A fierce light shed in his eyes, and his arms¡ªwhich had aberrated into tentacles¡ªheavily pressed down and sank into the ck mud. Suddenly, the surrounding mud seemed to be boiling, and the mud blisters continued to explode, causing the filthy things to ssh around! Link¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly. There was still some distance between him and the Fallen One, but his body instinctively sensed danger. Without hesitating, Link turned his back and swung out his sword. Countless rays of sword energy quickly cut down together with the sword light in his hand! Boom! The mud exploded, and what was hidden under the mud were numerous hideous tentacles! The tentacles were like a group of rioting snakes. They paused for a while after colliding with the sword energy, and many of the smaller tentacles were even directly cut off. It was this slight stagnation that gave Link a chance to dodge, after which the tentacles swept violently andnded into the mud with terrifying momentum. The tentacles were soon submerged in the mud again, and a warning signal appeared in Link¡¯s heart again. This time, the tentacles appeared next to him again! Link dodged, but no matter where he was, the tentacles¡ªwhich looked like manic snakes¡ªwere like maggots sucking on a human and wouldn¡¯t let go. Link was unable to get rid of them at all. After cutting off several tentacles once again, Link¡¯s mind turned, and he vaguely knew what this domain¡¯s effect was. The tentacles that blocked him were the Fallen One¡¯s aberrated arms, and this huge domain was like a door for the Fallen One, which could make his own attacks reach any ce within the domain! Being caught in this domain naturally meant Link had to be extremely passive for now. It was as if he were an enemy of the whole world. A gleam of light shed in Link¡¯s eyes, and the mental strength in his body kept pounding on the invisible barrier. Power! I need more power! ¡°Little mouse, where can you escape to?¡± The Fallen One sneered. This time, it wasn¡¯t just his entire arm; his entire person submerged in the mud and disappeared from everyone¡¯s field of vision. The mud beside Link exploded the next moment, and the hideous tentacles snaked out like pythons tearing through the air, rushing toward Link quickly. This time, the tentacles were denser. No matter how Link dodged, he couldn¡¯t avoid being entangled by some of the tentacles. ¡°Caught you!¡± Amidst the hideousughter, the Fallen One¡¯s figure emerged from the mud. His dense tentacles had wrapped around Link¡¯s ankles, dragging Link into the mud. Even more tentacles started to entangle Link as if nning to tie him into a ball. ¡°No!¡± A little further away, Aisha¡¯s face turned pale. She wanted to squeeze through the crowd and rush toward the mud domain, but she was stopped by several warriors. ¡°Don¡¯t go there; it will only increase our casualties!¡± A group of warriors looked at Link¡ªwho was slowly dragged into the mud by the tentacles¡ªand a touch of despair and sorrow shed across their faces. Is it over? Is there really no hope? Regus¡ªwho was fighting fiercely with a Stage Six Fallen One¡ªwas about to rush to this side to help Link, his eyes bloodshot. But his opponent stepped up the pace of attacks, making it impossible for him to get away. ¡°Hehe, your opponent is me!¡± This Fallen One sneered, his eyes full of brutal killing intent. Just when everyone felt despair, a sudden change urred! They saw a sword intent¡ªmore majestic than before¡ªsuddenly appear from among the dense tentacles! Sword energy suddenly emerged in the air, circling and flying around the tentacles like a violent storm as they tore apart the tentacles entwining Link¡¯s limbs! A sh of surprise shed across the Fallen One¡¯s ugly face; he obviously didn¡¯t expect such a thing to happen. And a figure had already shot out from the broken tentacles, apanied by a cold voice. ¡°Caught you.¡± It was the same words the Fallen One had previously said. Upon hearing this, the Fallen One¡¯s heart suddenly froze, and he had an ominous guess. Could it be that everything that has happened was just this young kid¡¯s way of tricking me so that he could find an opportunity to attack me? In fact, after discovering that the Fallen One could move freely in the mud, Link had nned everything and used himself as bait for this instant attack! Link¡¯s wrist flicked, and the sword in his hand drew a sharp arc in the air. Other than the sword¡¯s purple light, there were even bursts of bright white light! This white light was majestic and vast and exuded a holy aura! At the same time, streamers of light converged in the air, condensing into a huge sword that was tens of feet in size. It seemed like it had torn through space and appeared abruptly! The next moment, this huge and shocking holy sword appeared like it was falling from the sky. It cut down fiercely; it felt like the reappearance of some ancient divine punishment that wanted to quell all evil! The Fallen One was about to sink into the mud, but this attack had already fallen upon him! Boom! Amidst the loud explosive sound, a bright light filled everyone¡¯s eyes¡ªthe world was illuminated by this white light! Even the Stage Six Fallen One couldn¡¯t resist such an attack. What¡¯s more, this light-attribute holy sword had extra restraining and damaging effects on these aberrated Fallen Ones! The Fallen One¡¯s flesh and blood were constantly being torn and burnt by the bright white light! Chapter 200: Turning the Tables! True Terror!

Chapter 200: Turning the Tables! True Terror!

Amidst the piteous wails, the Stage Six Fallen One died under the massive holy sword! Tattered flesh exploded, were wrapped in golden holy mes, and reduced to nothing! Following this Fallen One¡¯s death, the ground covered by the domain also swiftly regained its original appearance. However, there was still a considerable amount of mud remaining. This was the corrosion of filthy forces; it had already caused irreversible effects on the ground. Link panted heavily. Right now, his abilities had yet to recoverpletely, so using [Holy Sword of the Light] was rather draining. Presently, it was deathly still within the entire formation. ¡ªSilence! Warriors were frozen in their spots, their eyes wide like brass bells as they dazedly stared at the young figure on the battlefield. They werepletely speechless! What did we see earlier? The Stage Six Fallen One was actually killed? Most importantly, the one who killed him is a youth who isn¡¯t even a warrior yet! How is this possible?! The great shock left everyone¡¯s minds nk as if they¡¯d been struck by lightning, their systems almost crashing on the spot. There were even people who constantly rubbed their eyes, in total disbelief of the situation before their eyes. They thought an illusion had appeared. Even Regus and the others¡ªwho were currently fighting other Fallen Ones in the distance¡ªcouldn¡¯t help stopping and directed looks of horror to this side! That was a Stage Six Fallen One, a nightmare in themon people¡¯s eyes. Yet, it actually... died... just like that? Everyone¡¯s minds were harshly shaken as if a huge boulder¡ªweighing 1,000 tons¡ªhad been dropped into thekes that were their hearts, lifting raging waves that hit the skies! The remaining Fallen Ones saw violent changes in countenances, and shock was written all over their faces! Time seemed to stop. Everyone froze for more than ten seconds before slowly recovering from that great shock. All the warriors drew in cold breaths, their hearts filled with surprise, shock, disbelief, and moreplicated emotions. Some people even swallowed a mouthful of saliva with effort and said slightly hesitantly, ¡°Dead?¡± ¡°That Stage Six Fallen One has actually died?¡± They probed the people around them, still a little dazed. ¡°Mm, dead!¡± Only when affirmative responses came from the people around them did joy gradually bloom on the faces of many people! ¡°Dead... Finally dead! Great! Wonderful!¡± Everyone was exhrated, and cheers exploded in the psychologicalwork. It was as if even the air had be joyous. Link¡¯s killing of the Stage Six Fallen One was undoubtedly a morale boost for the masses who¡¯d suffered blows time and time again! The originally depressing and despairing atmosphere was lifted as a result; everybody¡¯s eyes now contained more hints of brightness! ¡°Good job! I¡¯ve got to buck up too; how can I fall behind a young man!?¡± Regus guffawed, and his eyes sparkled. The exhaustion and pain all over his body were swept away as heunched a tempest-like assault on the enemy across him. Under the intense and fierce attacks, the Fallen One opposing him instantly felt a significant increase in stress and harbored resentment in his heart. Damn it, did Regus get injected with a potion?! Why is he so fierce; I¡¯m finding it difficult to hold on! Link¡ªwho had killed a Fallen One¡ªdidn¡¯t stay idle. After resting slightly and recovering for a while, heunched an attack on the remaining Fallen Ones. With his participation, the originally deadlocked situation changed instantly. The Fallen Ones unavoidably fell into a disadvantage! In the air, Lanzhi Sage¡ªwho was battling the great sage and the high priest¡ªfelt the corners of his eyes twitch hard as strong killing intent toward Link burst out in his heart. Previously, it was this rascal who resolved the conflict between the city guards and civilians and spoiled his n. Now, he had even killed a Stage Six Fallen One, causing the situation¡ªwhich was originally in his favor¡ªto change. How could Lanzhi Sage, Naiden, not be raging with killing intent? ¡°This rascal deserves death!¡± Naiden no longer cared about a powerhouse¡¯s pride and whatnot; he simply wanted to crush this nobody who had spoiled his ns repeatedly! Lanzhi Sage¡¯s cirri swung. A ck glow¡ªseveral feet long¡ªthat seemed as if it sought to rip apart the universe shot swiftly in Link¡¯s direction. The ck glow radiated a strong filthy aura, leaving traces of distortion in the air. Moreover, its speed was extremely high as if it were tearing space apart. It instantly appeared near Link with a flicker! This was the ability of a Sage-stage powerhouse, and only a Sage-stage powerhouse could shake space! The ck glow had locked onto Link; it was almost inescapable. A fatal sense of crisis instantly enveloped him. Right then, the space before the ck glow suddenly ripped like waves. A shield¡ªcondensed from mysterious runes¡ªemerged abruptly. Boom! Amidst the explosive roar, the ck glow and shield collided. Tempestuous air currents swept in all directions, and the frightening afterwinds tore deep gullies in the ground! But Link¡ªwho was protected by the shield¡ªwas without a scratch. The great sage, who had just released the shield, smiled. ¡°Naiden, do you think we don¡¯t exist?¡± Lanzhi Sage, Naiden, red at them with bulging eyes. His aura surged, almost exploding on the spot. After a roar, he shed with the great sage and the high priest once again. In the air, streaks of magic brilliance bloomed. The three powerhouses¡¯ figures interlocked as violent forces shook the air. Thebat ability of the great sage and the high priest¡ªwho both no longer had any qualms and worries¡ªimproved. Under their joint efforts, even the aberrated Lanzhi Sage, Naiden, found it difficult to resist. The two battlegrounds¡ªone in the air and one on the ground¡ªboth saw overwhelming changes because of Link! The tables had been turned with one man¡¯s strength! Before long, the group of Fallen Ones waspletely killed or captured. Lanzhi Sage was also taken down by the great sage and the high priest and kept in custody by using a powerful sealing spell. Existences at the Sage stage were difficult to kill; it was all the more so for the aberrated Lanzhi Sage. They could only seal him first and then slowly obliterate him. With the subsiding of the battle, many people heaved a sigh of relief. However, therge number of evil beings surrounding the defensive formation made it impossible for them to rx their tense heartstrings. Lanzhi Sage, Naiden, was kept inside a pir of light, the energies constantly wearing away his mind and body. However, Naiden didn¡¯t have much fear; he still revealed a hideous smile after being captured. ¡°You think you have won? Wrong! Absolutely wrong! The true despair has just begun!¡± Lanzhi Sage¡¯s voice sounded in the psychologicalwork. Everyone¡¯s mood became a little depressed, falling from the excitement and joy of the victory they¡¯d just attained. Outside of the defensive formation were concentrated crowds of evil beings. Even if they had killed the Fallen Ones and Lanzhi Sage, they couldn¡¯t change the situation before their eyes. The city guard warriors and civilians were giving first aid to the injured, taking care of their wounds. The high priest led several members of his office to continue injecting strength into the defensive formation to reinforce it. The evil beings outside the defensive formation constantly struck the light curtain, raising waves of ripples. No matter how they reinforced it, relying on the defense formation alone ultimately couldn¡¯t be a permanent solution. Link indifferently stared at the monsters dancing like mad outside of the light screen, his gaze dark and gloomy. All of a sudden, the evil beings¡ªwho kept striking outside the defensive formation¡ªhalted. The monsters uniformly turned to look to the back. A rumble sounded. Appearing behind them were multiple terrifying monsters. The aura they radiated had already reached the Sage stage. Chapter 201: Death of the Old Days! Swinging a Blade at the God of Evil!

Chapter 201: Death of the Old Days! Swinging a de at the God of Evil!

Those hideous Sage-stage monsters had bodies many timesrger than ordinary evil beings¡ªrumbles sounded as they moved! Their physiques were ugly and evil, enough to keep one up at night. They were like the aggregates of sea monsters or frogmen and fishmen that were magnified countless times. There were gray or dark-green scales on the surface of their bodies. They also had heads that were hideous like monster fish and sharp fins on their backs. Green sticky liquid dripped from their body surfaces, a filthy, profane aura radiating from all around them. Like massive beasts that barged around, they directly crushed the buildings that obstructed their way forward. And at the very end of these Sage-stage monsters was an existence whose figure was especiallyrge. The aura ¡®He¡¯ radiated was even grander and more sinister than that of the Sage-stage monsters! ¡®He¡¯ was above Sage-stage! ¡®He¡¯ was an existence that could be addressed as ¡®god¡¯s attendant¡¯ or ¡®angel!¡¯ Once ¡®He¡¯ appeared, just the overspreading suppression caused the defensive formation¡ªwhich was enough to resist Sage-stage powerhouses¡ªto tremble for ¡®Him.¡¯ The radiance on the defensive light curtains swiftly dulled! The evil beings outside the formation let out strange, broken sybles in unison as if it were a different song of praise used to wee these frightening monsters. The warriors and civilians that saw these monsters all fell into a massive shock-induced trance, and they instantly lost their heads! Everyone¡¯s faces were deathly pale, their minds buzzing. A chill rose from the bottom of their hearts, seeping into their bones as if they were soaking in extremely icy-cold water or had fallen into an ice cave. Before this group of monsters, they couldn¡¯t grow the slightest ray of hope¡ªthey were like insignificant nobodies. Everybody suddenly realized that their nightmare had arrived at this moment! The great sage and the high priest wore grim looks, whereas Lanzhi Sage¡ªwho was sealed in the pir of light¡ªhad revealed a sinister smile. ¡°This isn¡¯t all yet! We¡¯ve lost the blessings of our god, but they... They have not!¡± Lanzhi Sage narrated like a madman. The features on his ugly face had crumpled together, unknown whether it was out of agitation or pain. His words had just fallen when the ground began shaking. It was as though the entire Holy City was shaking in fear of a certain existence. An aura even more majestic and even eviler than that of all evil beings had arrived! The sky seemed to lower instantly. The stars presently above the sky became extremely bright like they were being drawn in by a certain force,ing closer to this world. The high priest looked up at the strange phenomenon in the sky. His eyes were unseeing as he murmured like he was sleep-talking. ¡°When the stars reach the correct position, the terror in the deep sea will awaken from slumber...¡± This was a true great terror! The evil beings¡¯ god walked out from the ancient murals and faraway myths, and the universe trembled because of it! Ordinary civilians and warriors werepletely unable to get a glimpse of ¡®His¡¯ full appearance. They could only catch some messy cirri, green, gtinous skin, or those long and narrow wings. Just ¡®His¡¯ aura was enough to make the masses feel immense fear and madness. It was as if a big hand was prodding their minds. Their internal organs were being twisted, releasing waves of pain as if a certain indescribable aberration was taking ce... Just a glimpse of a corner of that evil existence, and everyone seemed to be on the verge of being dragged into infinite insanity! One mustn¡¯t look at a god directly! The real nightmare had arrived; the future without a hint of hope hade. The moment ¡®He¡¯ arrived, the defensive formation was like delicate tissue paper or a child¡¯s toy¡ªutterly fragile. So much so that just the aura ¡®He¡¯ radiated could cause the formation to copse. Cracks spread like a spiderweb on those thick and heavy stone pirs, and the originally radiant light screenspletely dulled. The warriors trembled together with the civilians; nobody could be spared from this mighty force. Aisha held onto the corner of Link¡¯s clothes, fear written all over her face. ¡°Ling... Is this doomsday?¡± Link¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly. ¡°Perhaps, and I¡¯m not called Ling. I¡¯m Link.¡± Presently, the shackles within his body had beenpletely broken. He had regained all his memories and abilities. ¡°Know howughable you people are now? I am the correct...¡± Inside the pir of light, Lanzhi Sage spoke in a low voice. The great sage and the high priest were also shrouded by a great suppression presently. They were almost suffocating. Even their auras gradually became foul, being polluted and corroded. But despair didn¡¯t appear on the great sage¡¯s face. Instead, he was extremely at peace; he even wore a smile of relief. He didn¡¯t look toward Lanzhi Sage¡ªwho was inside the light pir¡ªbut directed his gaze at Link. ¡°Perhaps we walk like nobodies and live like dust, but we must still have the courage to lift our heads and look up at the stars.¡± Link¡¯s gaze froze slightly upon hearing that. ¡°You should¡¯ve known long ago that the destruction was unavoidable, right?¡± The great sage did not speak; he only nodded lightly. The next moment, a massive shadow shrouded the Holy City, An. This was the god¡¯s palm, propagating inexorable destruction and finality. Before the shadownded,rge numbers of warriors and civilians exploded on the spot, turning into a pool of mush. Link was also enduring immense pressure presently. His body almost disintegrated, but his eyes were extremely bright like two stars. Facing the god directly? It was no longer his first time in any case. An extremely vast and profound aura radiated from Link. The skill of the title¡ª[Witness of the Myth]¡ªwasunched! [Facing the Myth] providedrge amounts of immunity to Link, bringing him some hints of relief. He was unlikely to copse under the suppression. On the other hand, [God¡¯s Aura] allowed Link to radiate an aura that wasn¡¯t inferior to a god¡¯s. All of a sudden, spiderwebs seemed to spread behind Link. Massive strands of spider silk inteced, looking like pirs that connected heaven and earth. A mass of an indescribable noble figure rested in the spiderwebs¡¯ depths. A frightening aura arrived, and the universe shook because of it. Two different suppressions counterbnced each other, allowing the people on the ground to have a moment¡¯s breather. Everybody, including the great sage, currently looked at Link with faces full of shock. This was inconceivable to them. Why would this youth¡¯s body radiate a godly aura? But this wasn¡¯t all. Link brought out the [Mask of the Faceless] and ced it on his face. A distorted, nameless shadow then emerged behind Link. Although it was merely for a split second, one waspletely unable to forget it. He seemed to be chaos itself! With a grip of his palm, that standard longsword instantly broke. Recing it was a longsword that emitted a king¡¯s authority. As the [King¡¯s Sword]¡¯s de lifted, profound death energy gathered with Link as the center. Presently, his bearing changed again; he was like a god walking in the Styx! A massive figure appeared behind Link. It was an existence draped in ck robes with a silver scythe in hand. His appearance caused even the air to tremble. Inexhaustible aura of death spread as if ¡®He¡¯ was Death itself! One that could kill a god must be another god... Link had been blessed by the strength of three gods, allowing his body that wasn¡¯t big or tall to appear magnificent like mountains. One couldn¡¯t look at him directly. Even the shadow that fell from midair stagnated because of it. Chapter 202: Repulse the God of Evil Alone! Envoy!

Chapter 202: Repulse the God of Evil Alone! Envoy!

A light ¡®eh¡¯ sounded. The seas around the Holy City soon surged, setting off huge waves and windstorms. It seemed that the god of evil beings had developed some doubts toward Link. He should be an insignificant being, yet he is radiating multiple auras of a higher status than my own... Truly odd! A strange sound¡ªmingled with endless madness¡ªsounded in Link¡¯s mind as if it were lifting a terrifying storm inside his head. If it were an ordinary person, they probably would¡¯ve been instantly corroded by the madness encased within that voice, turningpletely evil and bing a madman. Or they would¡¯ve directly disintegrated into a pool of indescribable flesh and blood. Communicating with the God of Evil was no good thing. However, Link possessed the [Fearless Pathfinder] title, and the [Fearless] skill allowed him to be immune to negative status effects such as falling into madness, despair, and more. [Fearless] was instantlyunched. A warm current flowed out from Link¡¯s body and protected his consciousness, such that Link would not copse. Due to this, he could analyze the meaning of that voice through the madness. ¡°You are Th... Their envoy?¡± The God of Evil¡¯s words were slightly sluggish and contained some hints of surprise and confusion. This was because, in ¡®His¡¯ cognition, even a chosen envoy shouldn¡¯t be carrying the auras of so many gods. After all, it was impossible for those auras¡¯ owners to be so generous to allow their own envoys to go and serve other gods. However, ¡®He¡¯ was uncertain since it could also be due to some kind of interest. This made ¡®Him¡¯ more interested in Link¡¯s existence. Being the subject of many gods¡¯ attention¡ªa very interesting nobody... Link pondered for a while. What? Envoy? I am not! But since this God of Evil imagines so, I can be one too... Although Link still had some unpleasant memories with some of the auras¡¯ owners, there was no need to expose that now. After all, Link still knew his own limitations. His current capabilities were enough to defeat a Stage Six existence, but to go against a god? He was stillcking. The reform had yet to seed, and hisrades still needed to grow. ¡°I want all these people to live.¡± Link did not deny his identity as an envoy, nor did he hastily acknowledge it. He merely went with the flow and stated his request. Doing this had left Link had left some leeway while also allowing this god to believe in ¡®His¡¯ preconceived idea that Link was the envoy. After all, if Link wasn¡¯t the envoy, he had no right to negotiate terms at all given his current capabilities. Link already had a rough deduction about this world after recovering his memories. This should¡¯ve happened in a certain era¡ªa historical event that had long taken ce. The reason why it reappeared was probably rted to the historical ruin. It was highly likely a test or an extremely difficult dungeon. Since he had such an understanding, Link naturally wished to raise his clearance evaluation as much as possible. Protecting these people would be equivalent to changing the original history and achieving something impossible. By doing this, he should be able to get some expensive rewards. The God of Evil¡ªwho had green skin,rge amounts of cirri, and long narrow wings on his back¡ªvery quickly gave a response. That voice containing madness sounded once again. ¡°You want to protect these people? Mm... Sure.¡± He actually agreed! Link was delighted in his heart. ¡°Human, you are very interesting. Are you interested in bing my envoy as well?¡± The voice sounded once again. This time, ¡®He¡¯ had actually extended an olive branch toward Link. Link¡¯s gaze froze slightly; he was a little surprised and only came to a realization after some thought. This God of Evil probably only took destruction as a form of interest or a convenient act. Just like how humans stepped on and killed an ant when walking, there wouldn¡¯t be any special emotions forming because of it. But now, this God of Evil¡¯s interest had clearly shifted to Link. ¡®He¡¯ wasn¡¯t sure why there were so many gods¡¯ auras on Link, but ¡®He¡¯ found it interesting and wanted to get in on it too. Link had nothing to hesitate about. In any case, it was just a test; he wouldn¡¯t lose anything. As for truly believing in and serving this God of Evil¡ªsorry, it was impossible. Believing in ¡®Him¡¯ was impossible; Link would never believe in the God of Evil in this lifetime, nor would he serve ¡®Him.¡¯ Link could only pretend to be an envoy to maintain his life. Upon hearing Link¡¯s response, that massive figure seemed to be rather pleased. He retracted the palm that was about to destroy the Holy City¡ªAn¡ªand presented Link with a gift. A rune that carried unknown power appeared in the air. It then quickly condensed, turning into a circr object before falling in front of Link. Link held it in his hand and studied it. The object seemed like an essory; there was a mysterious rune drawn on it, and it still carried some of the God of Evil¡¯s aura. He was unable to receive the system¡¯s notifications here and wasn¡¯t sure what it exactly was, but it was probably a pretty good item. After presenting his gift, the God of Evil had no intention of remaining either. Very soon, the shadow hanging above the entire Holy City vanished. The suppression that almost caused people to copse hadpletely disappeared as well. And that dense group of evil beings¡ªwhich thirsted to devour everyone in the Holy City¡ªretreated sessively like the ebbing tide. They quickly disappeared from sight, but the effects they brought hadn¡¯tpletely subsided. For example, the warriors and civilians were currently staring at Link with faces full of shock. Eyes as wide as brass bells, they were speechless. The air seemed to freeze, and the people¡¯s gazes were like spotlights, directed toward Link in unison. Those gazes were filled with incredulity and disbelief. Is this a joke? The God of Evil actually left with all the evil beings? How can this be?! They were unaware of the contents of Link¡¯s under-the-table deal with the God of Evil. They only saw that Link seemed tomunicate with the God of Evil for a bit; then, the God of Evil had retreated with the subordinates under ¡®His¡¯mand. This was somewhat akin to repulsing the God of Evil alone; how could everyone not feel shocked? Even the great sage and the high priest¡¯s gazes¡ªwhich were directed at Link right now¡ªwere filled with surprise and much marvel. They felt overwhelmed! It was totally unimaginable that Link had managed to achieve this. As for Lanzhi Sage¡ªwho was still sealed in the pir of light¡ªhe was all the more extremely shocked. He dazedly stared at Link as if Link was the actual monster. ¡°Gone? He¡¯s gone just like that? Impossible! What exactly have you done?¡± Lanzhi Sage eximed. The God of Evil¡¯s appearance had incurred a greatmotion, but they had left after doing almost nothing. All of this was because of Link. It was as if it was only for the sake of showing ¡®His¡¯ face before Link. That was the God of Evil! A big boss! ¡®He¡¯ was repulsed by a rascal who hadn¡¯t even reached the Sage stage? God of Evil, do you not want your dignity? Lanzhi Sage shrieked in his heart. His head was buzzing, almost splitting open then and there. One had to know this: the reason why he degenerated and sought refuge with the evil beings was that he knew of the God of Evil¡¯s existence on the evil beings¡¯ side. Hence, they were impossible to defeat. If he had long known that the God of Evil was justing as a mere formality today, how could he have defected to the evil beings¡¯ side? Did he not know that his body would gradually fall into the abyss of madness by seeking refuge with the evil beings? Lanzhi Sage¡¯s heart was full of bitterness and regret. His features¡ªwhich were ugly to begin with¡ªhad contorted into a lump. Chapter 203: Passed the test! Sovereignty of Ruins!

Chapter 203: Passed the test! Sovereignty of Ruins!

After being stunned and shocked for a while, everyone slowly returned to their senses. Gulp! There was the sound of someone swallowing saliva. Many people felt their throats tighten, and their Adam¡¯s apples twitched weakly. Some people¡¯s eyes twitched. They didn¡¯t know what expression to make at this time... ¡°How did you do it?¡± Regus eximed in surprise. This usually steady and steadfast general couldn¡¯t contain the excitement within him. His mind was still a little confused. Aisha looked at Link in disbelief as well. Her bright eyes widened, and small question marks seemed to pop up above her head. Before Link could respond, a gentle wave of magical power swept over everyone. Everyone couldn¡¯t help turning their heads to look. They saw the great sage walk toward them with a smile. There were strange ck lines on that kindly old face; they were the traces that were left after being polluted. When the God of Evil descended, the great sage and the high priest tried their best to block the pollution for the majority of the people. As a result, they had been poisoned by the pollution. ¡°You did a good job. If you had existed in the past, things might be different...¡± Everyone¡¯s attention was on him, but the great sage did not reassure them. Instead, he sighed deeply. Those majestic and wise eyes stared at Link,den with emotions. In them were unspeakable sadness and regrets. These surging emotions were soon suppressed by the old man, and his eyes became extremely bright. It seemed like the darkness before dawn had finally faded, reced by optimism and hope that shone upon everything in the world! ¡°You are a variable. Perhaps there really is hope that we may be able to break apart the dark cloud that shrouds all civilizations and bring a touch of hope to your era...¡± The great sage spoke slowly, but at some point, the expressions and bodies of the people around him seem to have frozen like brittle old photographs. The river of time seemed to have split into two at this time¡ªone of which solidified, freezing the surrounding people in the past. Only the time between the great sage and Link continued flowing. But soon, even the great sage froze, and he quickly faded away as a cloud of darkness rose. Link wasn¡¯t surprised by this; he already knew that everything that had previously happened was just a remnant of the past. Everything had finallye to an end. The consciousness did not go far. Link could clearly feel his body, and he opened his eyes again. What appeared in front of him was an Olympian-style pce. The purple crystals around the dome radiated light. He was lying on a tform, and a somewhat illusory figure was quietly watching him in front of a huge screen not too far away. That illusory figure looked exactly like the great sage. However, Ou Chen, Luo Xingyao, and the others¡ªwho entered the ruins with him¡ªwere all still lying on the tform not far away. They had yet to awaken. Sensing Link¡¯s gaze, the illusory figure smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, yourpanions are not in danger. They are still immersed in the afterimage of the past. Those afterimages are just my reenactment of history with arcane magic. They are like travelers visiting a memory of the past, and no real harm wille to them.¡± Link looked up slightly and cast his gaze toward the illusory figure. ¡°Great Sage¡ªmay I call you by that name? Did what I see earlier actually happen in the past, or was it another test?¡± Link still didn¡¯t trust everything he saw; he was still wary. The illusory figure froze a little. It seemed that he had been affected by Link calling him ¡®Great Sage.¡¯ But the great sage¡¯s demeanor soon returned to normal, and he calmly said, ¡°Visitor from an unknown era, you may call me that. Great Sage is a name from a distant time. You don¡¯t have to doubt; what appears before your eyes at this moment is the truth. You should¡¯ve noticed that what you experienced was the end of our race. We have been exterminated long ago. There are only fragments left and can do you no harm. On the contrary, we hope that you can survive the doomsday. We long to see a ray of hope.¡± The illusory figure seemed extremely calm as he spoke of the extermination of his race; it was as if he were a bystander. After some thought, the great sage spoke again. ¡°I have to say that you are a very special existence. Even though the best of our n¡¯s magic pulled you into that memory, it encountered a lot of obstacles. Your mental power and some of the items on you are very unusual. Even if I want to do you harm, I may not seed.¡± Link¡¯s eyes flickered; he knew that what the great sage said was the truth. He had the [Fearless Pathfinder] title, as well as the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep]¡ªwhich provided him extremely high mental resistance. If the great sage had evil intentions and wanted to wipe out his spirit in the afterimage of the past, it wouldn¡¯t have been an easy task. Instead, it would alert him and allow him to break free from the afterimage. Furthermore, Link had many pieces of powerful equipment. He had nock of resources that he could use to deal with a dangerous situation. Even if Link was killed, he could resurrect. In other words, he had a hidden health bar and still had lots of health. Just as Link was thinking about it, the great sage spoke again. ¡°Visitor from an unknown era, you have done the impossible. In the cycle of eras, you are the only one who has changed the old destiny of our race. ording to the original n, you will be this ce¡¯s real master from now on and receive all the inheritances left by our people. We hope it will help you.¡± As the great sage finished speaking, a system prompt sounded in Link¡¯s mind. ¡°Ding! Congrattions on clearing the Epochal Ruins of the An era¡ª[Remnant of the Past]. Mission Completion: Incredible. Mission Evaluation: SSS!¡± ¡°Ding! You will gain node sovereignty over the Epochal Ruins of the An era and receive all the inheritances of the An civilization.¡± ¡°Ding! Due to your incredible missionpletion and SSS-level evaluation, you will get an 800% EXP bonus!¡± ¡°Ding! You get 100 million EXP!¡± ¡°Ding! Your level has been raised to Stage Four, Level 10!¡± ¡°Attention, there¡¯s still a surplus of EXP. You have reached the threshold of Stage Five; pleaseplete the level up when you are ready.¡± ¡°Since you are the first existence in the current era to obtain sovereignty over the ruins, the system will make a world announcement. Do you wish to remain anonymous?¡± ... A series of system prompts sounded like a news st. It wasn¡¯t until this moment that Link truly let his guard down. Even the system prompts had appeared. It would seem that this wave had beenpletely stabilized! Next came the exciting harvest time! As for the world announcement proiming him as the first to obtain the sovereignty of the ruins, Link hid some of his information and revealed only one of his professions. The system announcement soon rang out all over the world, triggering a tsunami of reactions. Chapter 204: Earthshaking! Groundbreaker!

Chapter 204: Earthshaking! Groundbreaker!

A message shed through the minds of all the [Doomsday Online] yers. [The first yer to obtain sovereignty over the Epochal Ruins and uncover a small part of the mystery of the era on Blue Star is born! Special announcement! Groundbreaker: XXX, upation: Death Judge!] Boom! The announcement came in a sudden and roared like thunder in everyone¡¯s heads! Countless people were dazed on the spot. Their minds were nk; they were shocked by the news! The ruin sovereign was born! At this moment in time, most yers were still living in Doomsday¡¯s shadow. They were struggling to survive, and most of them hadn¡¯t even entered a dungeon, let alone a ruin! This piece of news came as a huge shock to everyone. Just imagine it! The whole world was shocked by this news, and there was great excitement! The hearts of all surviving yers thumped madly! They felt like there were countless active volcanoes with trembling hot magma within them that erupted instantly! The sound of the explosion shook the world, and the redva swept through the sky, bursting into the sky as if to burn the sky! However, someone obtaining sovereignty over the ruins was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that this person¡ªwho was the first to obtain sovereignty over the ruins¡ªwas no stranger to them. It was the Death Judge, who previously appeared in the world announcements twice! After hearing this piece of news, countless yers were dumbfounded. It took a while before they came back to their senses. They couldn¡¯t help the thought that popped up in their minds: Damn! Why is it this bastard again?! Howe it¡¯s him all the time? This is the Death Judge¡¯s third time appearing in the world announcements... Ah! B*stard! This Death Judge is really shocking. It is really messing with our minds! Shouts and roars of jealousy rose from all over the world! ¡°Damn it! Someone has gained sovereignty over the ruins? I haven¡¯t even seen the ruins! It¡¯s unfair!¡± ¡°It¡¯s that damned Death Judge again. This is the third time, right? It¡¯s always him; I¡¯m so mad!¡± ¡°Really? The Death Judge has actually obtained sovereignty over the ruins? This kid is the Goddess of Luck¡¯s lover, right? It¡¯s so unfair; why haven¡¯t I had any luck? Are the Death Judge and I in different worlds?!¡± ¡°Damn, the Death Judge is awesome! I proim you the most powerful!¡± ¡°Hey! Death Judge, you have the ability to conquer the ruins, but do you dare to report your name and address? I... I will throw myself at your feet immediately!¡± This announcement shook the Blue Star and set off terrifying storms in everyone¡¯s hearts! ... Unfallen City, in a spacious chamber. Yang Xuerou, Qiao Ruowei, and Link¡¯s other confidants gathered together with Wu Hao, Tian Mingyuan, and the other teams from Bright Sun City. The two parties were negotiating matters of alliance and cooperation, exchanging information they had, and trading various resources. At this moment, the world announcement rang out! Wu Hao¡ªwho had just taken a sip of tea¡ªsuddenly widened his eyes. With a sputter, he spat his tea into the mouth of Tian Mingyuan, who was next to him! However, Tian Mingyuan wasn¡¯t angry. At this moment, he waspletely stunned. He waspletely shocked by the world announcement and did not react at all. The rest of the Temple of Light members were even more stunned¡ªeveryone was bbergasted! Someone has gained sovereignty of the ruins?! At this moment, Link appeared in both Tian Mingyuan¡¯s and Wu Hao¡¯s minds. The Death Judge mentioned in the world announcement should be Link! After all, this was too much of a coincidence. Link had entered the ruins, and this world announcement appeared at just the right time. In addition, Wu Hao and Tian Mingyuan had spected on the Death Judge¡¯s identity before. The appearance of the world announcement at this time further proved their conjecture. There is no mistake! The Death Judge must be Link. The kid kept it from us for a long time! For a time, Wu Hao and Tian Mingyuan felt extremely conflicted. There was even some resentment in their eyes. After hearing the world announcement, Yang Xuerou and the others on the other side of the conference table also spaced out for a while. As Link¡¯s confidants, they naturally knew who the Death Judge was. There was a burst of excitement and joy in their hearts! Their City Master had gained sovereignty of the ruins just days after he entered it. It was absolutely terrifying! There was a strange light in the eyes of the two beauties, Yang Xuerou and Qiao Ruowei. They were amazed and excited by Link¡¯s achievements. Joy shed across Luo Xinghe¡¯s face. If there were no outsiders present, he would¡¯ve jumped up excitedly and shouted out that the City Master was amazing. After a while, everyone recovered from the shock the world announcement brought them. ¡°Cough cough.¡± Tian Mingyuan coughed lightly. His whole body surged with magic power, removing all the tea and residue from his body. Afterward, he looked at Yang Xuerou and said straightforwardly, ¡°City Master Link should be the Death Judge, right? Congrattions to Unfallen City. You have gained sovereignty over a ruin; it¡¯s an amazing achievement.¡± ¡°City Master Link has kept this from us for a long time!¡± echoed Wu Hao as well. Yang Xuerou heard this, but she didn¡¯t give a definite answer. She just smiled. She wasn¡¯t the amateur who didn¡¯t understand anything, so she naturally wouldn¡¯t be so easily confused. ¡°These are digressions; let¡¯s continue to talk about our cooperation.¡± Yang Xuerou lightly brushed the topic off. Wu Hao and Tian Mingyuan didn¡¯t ask too much. They were experienced enough to know when to stop. But it was certain that Link was the Death Judge and that he even owned the Epochal Ruins. The value of Unfallen City and Link in their hearts both skyrocketed in an instant! Tian Mingyuan and Wu Hao tacitly looked at each other. Unfallen City and Link are definitely allies we can¡¯t pass up. The Temple of Light must establish a good rtionship with them. ... Inside the Epochal Ruins, in the Olympian-style pce. A bright light emerged from Link¡¯s body; it was the light from leveling up. The improvement of his attributes made Link¡¯s aura stronger, and the power in his body surged like a tide. He had reached Stage Four, Level 10, and was only a step away from Stage Five. He would then be able to control certainws and build a domain that belonged to him alone. The iconic feature of a Stage Five Star-rank powerhouse was their domain! Many people were stuck at this bottleneck. Even if they had the experience, they couldn¡¯t advance to Stage Five Star-rank. And even if this kind of person relied on various methods to break through to Stage Five, a Star-rank powerhouse that had no domain was at the bottom amongst other Stage Five powerhouses. There was almost no further hope for them. But this was naturally not a problem for Link, who had already lived once. With his understanding of the void, there was no bottleneck during the process of breaking through to Stage Five. In addition, Link still had a surplus of experience. He would have the opportunity to continue leveling after advancing to Stage Five. The most important thing was that Link could feel that he was already ready for the next Void Summoning! Chapter 205: The Fourth Summon! King Arthur! With anticipation, Link settled down and began to chant. ¡°God from a farawaynd, heed mymand... ept the imprint of the Void;e across the endless barrier of space and time. Be my spear; be my shield!¡± The low chanting resounded in the hall like an overwhelming tide. Void energy swept around with Link as the center, stirring up radiant light like a magnificent throne. Even the great sage couldn¡¯t help but reveal a slightly surprised expression. He could tell that Link¡¯s affinity andprehension of the void were far beyond his current rank. ¡°What a surprising young man.¡± The great sage sighed in his heart. And as Link¡¯s chanting voice fell, a huge andplicated six-manifold star formation suddenly emerged on the ground beneath his feet! A multi-colored radiance broke through the barrier between the ruin and reality and fell around Link. Now shrouded in dense divine light, Link appeared even more awe-inspiring and outstanding with his sharply angled eyebrows, bright eyes, and clothes that were as white as snow. He appeared like a god looking down on the world¡ªunattainable! The Forest of Darkness¡ªwhich had its peace restored¡ªbecame a terrifying scene once again because of Link¡¯s summoning! Boom! The ground shook violently and then abruptly cracked open. The cracks spread like a dense spiderweb, seemingly unable to withstand the terrifying pressure! Rays of light fell from the sky, tearing through the dusky night! The rays converged together, forming a deep void tunnel as if interconnected with the bright and distant starry sky! At this moment, the entire mountain range where the Forest of Darkness was located¡ªalong with the neighboring wilderness¡ªplunged into anxiousness and restlessness. Dark creatures in the wilderness rioted as if in fear of something; they hissed nonstop. Several human home cities in the surrounding area were also shaken. Countless people¡¯s hearts throbbed as they raised their eyes and looked in the direction of the dark mountain range. The sky there was shrouded in endless divine light, rippling like water waves as it revealed a different world. Huge dragons hovered in the sky, war horses neighed, and the warriors¡¯ roars shook the sky! Boom! Among them, a figure proudly stood at the forefront of an army, enveloped by a golden holy glow. The aura of a king¡¯s dignity and imposing manner could be felt. He swung his longsword down fiercely, and a huge sword glow suddenly appeared. It was as if heaven and earth were torn! ¡°This... What is this? A view of another world? Or is it an omen that another spatial rift will appear?¡± Countless people were shocked by this magnificent and unusual image. Some were confused, and some could only exim in shock and specte. Yang Xuerou and the others in Unfallen City also walked out from the chamber and gazed in the Forest of Darkness¡¯s direction. Wu Hao, Tian Mingyuan, Yang Xuerou, and the others all narrowed their eyes slightly. As the best of the [Doomsday Online] yers, they were more perceptive. They vaguely felt something stir within them. It was as if a certain powerful existence had descended into this world! ¡°It happened at the dark mountain range. Does it have anything to do with Link?¡± Tian Mingyuan muttered, amazed. ... At the same time, an incandescent light door appeared in front of Link. Amidst the golden glow, a king¡¯s strong and intimidating pressure diffused. The magnificent hall trembled a little. The great sage waved his hands at once, and arcane energy was produced to bless Ou Chen and the others¡ªwho were still immersed in the test. Otherwise, they might be awakened by the greatmotion. Although Link had taken the greatest benefits of the ruin, they would still gain some EXP as constion after going through the test. The pressure attacked them like the tide. Link¡¯s expression remained unchanged. Instead, he leaned back and sat on the throne, where the void energy was gathered. If the one who was about to walk out of the light door was a king, then at this moment, Link was like a god sitting high up. Link looked at the light door quietly, the corners of his mouth curving up slightly. It seems like I¡¯ve summoned another powerful guy¡ªa king¡¯s might? Soon, a figure walked out from the light door. The great sage and Link¡¯s expressions froze. They saw that the person who walked out wasn¡¯t the stout and imposing king they had imagined, but a young girl d in armor with blonde hair and blue eyes. The young girl was beautiful. What was rare was that she possessed a valiant and heroic bearing not found in delicate young girls. It was just that the silly tuft of hair on top of her head dampened the atmosphere slightly. ¡°Er...¡± The great sage went silent. The young girl who appeared in front of him was a little out of his expectations. Is she a silly-haired king? Link was slightly surprised as well, but he soon recovered his senses. This was because a message shed through his mind the moment the young girl appeared. [Ding! Congrattions on summoning King Arthur (Super God)!] [King Arthur ¡¤ Artoria] Grade: Super God (Advanceable) Race: Dragon Descendant Description: The King with the Red Dragon¡¯s bloodline, the Chosen One who drew the sword from the stone, the Head of the Noble Knights of the Round Table, the King of Legends who wielded the sword of victory.

Status: Aura of the Gods (All attributes +30%) After seeing the silly-haired king¡¯s attributes, Link couldn¡¯t help but feel a sense of joy. Artoria is a powerful one! Not only does she have powerful damage skills, but her spell resistance is also outrageously strong! The grown-up Artoria would definitely be the nemesis and nightmare of Mages! The great sage¡ªwho was an Arcane Mage¡ªinstinctively felt a sense of oppression. This young girl, who was summoned by Link, is extraordinary! The great sage couldn¡¯t help but look at Link. This young man has really exceeded my imagination! After a brief silence, Artoria performed a knight¡¯s salute toward Link and said solemnly, ¡°I will be your sword!¡± Chapter 206: Domain Integration!

Chapter 206: Domain Integration!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Link smiled and nodded slightly, and with a wave of his hand, soft void energy lifted Artoria up. As Link stood up, a glimmer of light shed in his eyes. After the summoning ceremony is over, it is time for me to advance to Stage Five. Previously, Link didn¡¯t deliberately aim to level up as fast as possible. Instead, he was trying his best to understand his own powers as much as possible. Otherwise, with his ability, he could umte a lot of EXP by entering the City of the Undead dungeons several times. And now, he had enough understanding of his own powers. With a thought of his mind, the void energy surging around Link¡¯s body became more and more active, surging like a tide. Amidst the violent surges of void energy, a bright light was shing from Link¡¯s body, and a half-open void portal faintly appeared behind him. Through the gap in the half-open portal, a dazzling scene of the gxy seemed to appear... Misty starlight flowed out from the portal, and the current Link seemed to have be the supreme ruler of the stars. The great sage looked at Link with a sh of wonder in his eyes. Link instantly started to advance to Stage Five when he had only just reached the peak of Stage Four. This wasn¡¯t something ordinary people could do. This showed that Link¡¯s understanding of the Void nomological power had reached an extremely profound level as there was no bottleneck at all. Not only did an energy tide appear inside the Epochal Ruins as a result of the phenomenon resulting from Link¡¯s advancement, but in the Forest of Darkness as well. Streams of starlight fell down as if they were turning into a void channel that connected earth and heaven! The sky¡ªwhich had returned to being dim and dull¡ªinstantly became clear, while the stars seemed to be attracted by a mysterious force and bloomed with a strange brilliance! Countless people were once again attracted by this scene. The powerhouses in the surrounding human cities had just calmed down from the previous phenomenon and had no choice but to cast surprised nces at the Forest of Darkness again. The apocalyptic Evolvers were all deeply stunned, and even their eyes were twitched. They werepletely speechless. ¡°What the heck¡ªagain? Give me a break! What strange thing is happening in the Forest of Darkness today?¡± In Unfallen City, Yang Xuerou, Wu Hao, and the others were also surprised. The sessively appearing phenomena signified that tonight was destined to be a non-peaceful night. It was possible that many people would rush to the Forest of Darkness overnight to check the situation. Those who had inside news¡ªsuch as Yang Xuerou and Wu Hao¡ªwere somewhat unable to remain calm as well. Both parties had no thoughts of discussing matters at this moment, and they all stared at the vast phenomenon that covered their sights. The stars were shining, the void energy was overflowing, and even cobweb-like cracks appeared in the sky, but this wasn¡¯t all. In his previous life, Link mastered some of the Void nomological powers and used this as his foundation to enter the Star-rank. Although his resultingbat power was also quite impressive at that time, since he had a chance to do this a second time, he naturally wouldn¡¯t be satisfied with just how he was in his previous life. Inside the ruin, vigorous sword intent suddenly rose from Link¡¯s body and shot straight into the sky! Sword energy appeared, circled, and danced in the air around Link. His white robe fluttered and swayed, and his bearing was extraordinary. He seemed like an ancient sword celestial who crossed over the long river of time and came to this world! A sh of surprise shed in the great sage¡¯s eyes. Good god. Not only does this kid have a deep understanding of the Void nomological power, but he has also attained a high level of swordsmanship! He¡¯s nning to integrate the Void nomological power and the Sword nomological power! A domain constructed from integrating two nomological powers will naturally be stronger than most of the domains consisting of a single nomological power! In fact, this is the reason why Star-rank powerhouses¡¯bat power can differ greatly. The strength, depth, and the number of nomological powers each person hasprehended are all different. For ordinary people, just understanding andprehending one nomological power is already not an easy task, but this kid actually possesses two nomological powers! If this news spreads out, I wonder how many people will cry to death! The biting sword energy overflowed, and a torrent of sword energy seemed to appear around Link. Deep ravines also appeared on the tform he was on. The immense sword energy even spilled out and was going to spread to the entire hall. The corner of the great sage¡¯s eyes twitched, and a virtual staff appeared in his hand. Upon waving the staff, countless streams of arcane brilliance were released from it and formed a field barrier, isting Link within it. The phenomenon resulting from this kid¡¯s advancement isn¡¯t small. I mustn¡¯t let him destroy the Epochal Ruins. In the outside world, countless people¡¯s attention was attracted by this sword intent. The tip of a huge sword appeared in the sky, and a strong sense of sharpness emanated from this sword as if it were the embodiment of the Sword path itself! It was covered with mysterious runes, and majestic pressure was emanating from it, causing the dark creatures around it to prostrate themselves on the ground. Countless powerhouses¡ªwhose attention was drawn to this ce¡ªfelt even more amazed! However, the phenomenon did not end there. After the biting sword energy, another stream of death energy came, which converged toward Link. Link possessed the God of Death¡¯s inheritance, and he had alsoprehended part of the Death nomological power. At this moment, the tform under his feet was covered by the dense death energy, which then turned into a ck river! It looked as if this was the Styx river, where souls were entrapped! Behind Link, a figure wearing a ck robe and holding a silver sickle faintly appeared! In the outside world, death energy appeared as well. A Styx river hung high in the sky,pletely shocking the world! The power of death! This is another nomological power. The great sage¡¯s pupils shrunk slightly; the young man in front of him made it difficult for him to remain calm! What kind of terrifying domain is this young man going to construct? It isn¡¯t possible that he will already be invincible at this stage once he enters Star-rank, right? But even when surrounded by these various phenomena, Link was still not satisfied. Illusory spider silk emerged from behind him and spread out as if wanting to pull people into endless dreams. There were also tentacles exuding chaos and profanity emerging from the shadows under Link¡¯s feet and dancing about, causing the scalps of those who saw this to go numb! The power of dreams! The aura of chaos and madness! What the heck! At this moment, even with the great sage¡¯s bearing, vulgarities almost burst out from his mouth! So many different nomological powers appeared at the same time and are being integrated into a single domain! This was something even the great sage had never heard of before, and he was deeply shocked! The appearance of these nomological powers even caused the field barrier that the great sageid for Link to tremble faintly as if it would be broken at any time! The corner of the great sage¡¯s eyes twitched, his expression constantly changing. It should be known that I¡¯m a Sage-stage powerhouse. The defensive field barrier Iid down is extremely sturdy, but now, it is actually being shaken by a young man who hasn¡¯t even reached Stage Five yet? It was unbelievable! Although the current great sage was just a remnant soul preserved through arcane means, and his power was greatly reduced, it still wasn¡¯t a power that Stage Five Star-rank powerhouses couldpare with. This kid is definitely a monster! The great sage secretly expressed this in his heart, but he still pretended to look very calm on the surface. He definitely couldn¡¯t look surprised. He was a Sage after all; he still needed to consider his image. However, his hands were constantly moving, continuously strengthening the field barrier that enveloped Link. At this moment, not only was the great sage shocked, but the [Doomsday Online] yers who witnessed the endless phenomena in the outside world were also deeply shocked as well! Countless people were talking about it, and several human home cities were in an uproar! However, Link was immersed in the advancement process and wasn¡¯t aware of the situation outside. He didn¡¯t yet know that the outside world was in upheaval because of the phenomena resulting from his advancement! Chapter 207: Breaking Out of the Cocoon! Will of the Planet!

Chapter 207: Breaking Out of the Cocoon! Will of the!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios Multiple nomological powers converged in the ruin, and light of all types of colors shrouded Link¡¯s slender body like a huge light cocoon. Within the light cocoon, Link¡¯s body became increasingly stronger under the various nomological powers¡¯ influence. His internal organs, skin, and even hair were covered with ayer of radiance, looking like a beautiful piece of jade free of dirt and dust. The eyes of the great sage¡ªwho was by the side¡ªcouldn¡¯t help but sh with a touch of surprise. He could feel that a profound aura was being birthed within the light cocoon and that it was getting stronger and stronger. Normally, an ordinary person¡¯s advancement to Stage Five Star-rank wouldn¡¯t have such an effect and change. This was all because Link hadprehended too many types of nomological powers and to a high degree at that, which caused this qualitative change! ¡°This kid is really a monster! After this advancement, he may have hopes ofpleting that step ahead of time!¡± The great sage sighed in his heart, his expression bingplicated. Hope and destion appeared in this old man¡¯s eyes at the same time. He looked forward to Link aplishing that matter, but as a remnant of a shattered era¡ªa lonely soul of the old days¡ªhe knew very well how difficult it was to achieve that step... It was almost impossible toplete! Otherwise, the civilization of their era wouldn¡¯t have been destroyed. The great sage was even reluctant to mention it, fearing that this hope would turn into despair in the end. After a moment of silence, there was an explosion in the void! Boom! Cracks appeared in the cocoon covering Link and spread quickly. An aura that was more majestic and vaster than before diffused in the space. Link¡¯s eyes suddenly opened, and stars were seemingly being born and dying within them. As this happened, shadows of various nomological powers shed by in those deep eyes. The power of his domain that uniquely belonged to him swept outward from all around Link like a tide! Within his domain was a mixture of death, eternal sleep, sword aura, void, and many other auras¡ªthis domain¡¯s power was far beyond that of general domains! Kra kra kra! The protective barrier cast by the great sage could no longer persist and was broken in an instant! As Link woke up, a mysterious aura also seemed to be aroused from somewhere. Momentarily, an inexplicable feeling was faintly felt in everyone¡¯s hearts all over the world. It seemed to be a soft call with unrecognizable meaning, resounding in the hearts of all living creatures. The great sage¡¯s eyes went straight the moment the soft call sounded, and he froze in ce! At the same time, the turbulent power of Link¡¯s domain hadpletely covered the tform where he was located, and it was constantly eroding outward. It was about to impact Ou Chen and the others, who were at the side; its power was extremely overbearing. The great sage suddenly returned to his senses and said quickly, ¡°Don¡¯t wake them up.¡± Before the words fell, the surging domain¡¯s power had already begun to retract and was fully absorbed into Link¡¯s body. His eyes had also returned to their usual calmness and indifference. Although Link¡¯s power had skyrocketed after this time¡¯s advancement, he still had great control over his own strength and wouldn¡¯t cause idental injuries. And following his advancement to Stage Five, the remaining EXP also took effect. Light illuminated Link¡¯s body due to the level up. [Ding! You have leveled up to Stage Five, Level 2!] Slowly exhaling and feeling the surging power in his body, Link was in quite a good mood. Since his profession was of Taboo grade, he required a huge amount of EXP for every level up. Correspondingly, the attribute increase brought to Link from leveling up was also quite considerable. Now, Link was confident of fighting against Stage Seven powerhouses, let alone Stage Six powerhouses! ¡°What¡¯s the matter just now?¡± After quickly clearing up his mood, Link looked at the great sage and asked about the inexplicable calling that just appeared. Upon hearing this, the great sage seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Link in amazement. His chin opened slights, and his emotions were obviously slightly out of control as he muttered incoherently. ¡°It¡¯s true... It can¡¯t be wrong... It really feels like that...¡± After a long while, the lonely old soul regained his sanity, but his words were still full of excitement and tremors. ¡°Link, what your advancement just stimted was the... Will of the! If it can be awakened in advance, it may be possible to end this apocalyptic reincarnation ahead of time!¡± Link¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly, and he felt even more confused. ¡°The Will of the?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± The great sage¡¯s eyes were particrly bright as he said, ¡°You can understand it as a powerful god or the congregation of a god¡¯s consciousness. The Blue Star we are in is actually not special in the vast universe. It can even be considered as small as dust whenpared to the universe.¡± ¡°The reason why it will encounter an apocalyptic catastrophe every time a civilization develops to a certain stage¡ªwhich results in destruction¡ªis due to our special position. This is the intersection of all worlds, the ce where the fantasy realm and the physical world are connected. Whenever the other worlds want to do something, they will definitelye here¡ªwhich results in the apocalypse and the invasion of all other worlds!¡± Link pondered for a while and said, ¡°What you mean is that our is a ce where all the other worldspete for.¡± ¡°Yes, the various other worlds¡ªand even many gods¡ªwill want to gain control of this springboard. Hence, causing the series of turmoils. Countless years ago, our was extremely glorious. It was the center of all worlds and realms. Many gods existed here, and our was one of the most powerfuls. Then, there was a battle of gods. The gods from Blue Star fought with the other worlds¡¯ gods, and countless gods died in the long river of time. ¡°The Will of the on Blue Star has also fallen into a deep sleep and can only passively exert some protective mechanisms. However, our heritage still exists. The other worlds have destroyed our civilizations time and time again to wipe out our heritage and let the will of this¡ªwhich we live in¡ªbepletely annihted.¡± Link instantly understood. No wonder the gods¡¯ thrones that appeared were all empty in the grand scene in the City of the Undead¡¯s dungeon. No wonder there are various heritages and relics around the world. Some of which are left by gods of the past, while some might be left by gods from other worlds. [Doomsday Online] was a manifestation of the Will of the¡¯s protective mechanisms, providing everyone with a method to grow quickly and resist the various crises. ¡°So, to change all of this, we must first awaken the Will of the before ending the apocalypse,¡± Link said solemnly. The great sage nodded. ¡°Yes, I was hesitant to tell you this just now, but you evoked the resonance of the¡¯s will when you advanced to Stage five. Hence, you might have a chance of resolving our regrets from back then. However, this process isn¡¯t easy. First, you need to prepare a lot of divine-type objects in order to build a bridge ofmunication.¡± Divine-type materials? Link said in his heart: If you want to talk about this, I¡¯ll be very spirited. He had many items with such attributes in his hands, such as [Mask of the Faceless], [Talisman of Eternal Sleep], and [Holy Spirit Ne]... Thus, Link didn¡¯t hesitate to take out these various items from his personal backpack. As the divine-type items were taken out one by one, even the heart of an experienced man like the great sage couldn¡¯t help but shake. His eyes also widened. ¡°Why do you have so many divine-type items?!¡± Chapter 208: Death of a Sage! The Man Who Ended the Apocalypse!

Chapter 208: Death of a Sage! The Man Who Ended the Apocalypse!

Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios ¡°Not a lot, not a lot. This is just barely enough.¡± The great sage quickly kept the surprise on his face, forced a smile, and tried his best to maintain hisst dignity. What he didn¡¯t know was that for Link¡ªwho possessed the [Supreme Blessing] skill¡ªcollecting divine-type items was countless times easier than for others. A high-grade item¡ªwhich didn¡¯t possess divine nature¡ªwould have a high chance of bing a divine-type item after being blessed. If someone else was here, even if that person was Ou Chen¡ªthe Temple of Light¡¯s Holy Son¡ªand was able to use all the resources of the temple, he could only take out the [Sacred Book of Light] that was of divine nature. Compared to Link, it was a bit miserable. ¡°Awakening the¡¯s will is very important. If more divine-type items would be better, I should be able to prepare some more,¡± Link said and looked toward Luo Haoyue and the others. After Luo Haoyue¡¯s transformation, her bloodline was that of the God of Evil¡¯s descendants; she also possessed divine nature on her. As for the major human factions, such as the Temple of Light, they should also possess some divine-type items. If necessary, Link didn¡¯t mind collecting all these items from them. Of course, the process would inevitably be quite violent. ¡°No need; these should be enough. This is just to build a bridge; the key is to see if you fit the criteria,¡± said the great sage in a deep voice. Holding the items given by Link, he started to build the bridge ofmunication. Although he used the word ¡®bridge,¡¯ it was actually an extremely ancient spell formation. The divine-type items were only the main materials; a lot of auxiliary materials were needed too. Being Unfallen City¡¯s City Master and having control of an entire city¡¯s resources, Link didn¡¯tck the auxiliary materials either. Without procrastinating, Link immediately left the ruins and contacted Yang Xuerou and the others to ask them to prepare the corresponding materials. When Yang Xuerou and the others learned of Link¡¯s n, they were all very excited and delighted. This was a real way to solve the apocalypse¡ªthe revival of the¡¯s will would protect the human race from being invaded by other worlds! Wu Hao and others from the Temple of Light were equally excited and expressed that the Temple of Light would also fully support Link¡¯s n. Arge number of materials were transported to the dark mountain range, and an extremely old andrge spell formation was constantly beingpleted. And with the continuouspletion of therge spell formation, the Blue Star¡¯s will¡ªwhich was originally dormant¡ªhad be active. The Undead monsters all over the world faintly felt a sense of crisis. ... The Abyssal Realm. In a huge hall of bones, three terrifying auras suddenly descended, making the atmosphere extremely solemn! A group of abyssal monsters and high-ranking Undead all crawled on the floor and trembled,cking any courage to raise their heads. Above the hall, on three supreme thrones, the three kings of the abyss sat high. The Blood Lord, Witch Lord, and Demon Lord were all the supreme kings in charge of the Abyssal Realm, and their levels had reached Stage Nine Sage¡ªthey were extremely powerful! At this moment, the three kings were silent. Their deep gazes seemed to have crossed the barriers of endless space and were staring at Blue Star. After a long time, a dry voice sounded. ¡°Something unexpected happened; those ants seemed to have discovered something. They actually n to wake up the¡¯s will, causing Blue Star¡¯s nomological powers to be turbulent!¡± Witch Lord was enveloped in a dpidated gray robe, and his tone was cold. The Blood Lord¡¯s huge body¡ªwhich seemed to be made from a sea of ??blood¡ªvibrated slightly, and the sound of the blood sea tumbling converged into murderous and awe-inspiring words. ¡°We mustn¡¯t let that happen. They must be wiped out as soon as possible!¡± The Demon Lord nodded slightly and said, ¡°The gods of the Abyssal Realm are still asleep. If Blue Star¡¯s will recover at this time, the consequences will be disastrous. Not only will our invasion efforts fall short, but it will also cause our own gods to be suppressed and possibly evenpletely annihted.¡± ¡°However, this is also an opportunity. Now that the nomological powers are turbulent, we can take this opportunity to expand the space cracks to let a supreme king forcibly pass through andpletely wipe out those ants!¡± The surging sound of the ??blood sea sounded again, only to hear the Blood Lord coldly say, ¡°I shall go personally and ughter the entire Blue Star!¡± The other two kings had no objections after hearing this, and both nodded. ... Blue Star, dark mountain range. Many powerhouses andmon people had gathered here. In the mountains¡¯ hintend, a huge spell formation had beenpleted. An illusory portal appeared in the air, exuding an iparably deep and vast aura, while the inside contained a psychedelic brilliance that even a Sage couldn¡¯t see through! ¡°City Master, this trip is very dangerous, and you will get lost inside if you aren¡¯t careful. Unfallen City cannot do without you; I am willing to go in first and find a path for you!¡± Just as Link was about to step into the portal, Yang Xuerou, Qiao Ruowei, and his other confidants shouted in low voices with a sh of worry on their faces. Although this was the only chance to solve the apocalypse, they didn¡¯t want to see their City Master risk himself. Link just smiled faintly, his eyes still firm. ¡°I have already made up my mind. Just do what you guys should do. The Abyssal Realm will surely counterattack in the near future.¡± Yang Xuerou and the others knew that they couldn¡¯t change Link¡¯s decision, so they could only nod their heads. Link¡¯s gaze swept over everyone with eyes that were as calm and indifferent as always. His white robe swayed in the wind, and he carried a majestic attitude. This image was deeply engraved in everyone¡¯s minds! ¡°Everyone, goodbye for now.¡± Before the words fell, Link stepped into the portal. With the disappearance of Link, Blue Star¡¯s nomological powers became more and more turbulent, which also gave the Abyssal Realm¡¯s powerhouses a chance to descend forcefully. Three dayster, a space crack¡ªtens of millions of miles long¡ªsuddenly appeared in the sky. It was like the huge mouth of an abyss wanting to swallow the entire, and countless people were terrified by it! In the huge rift, gurgling blood poured down continuously. As the blood sea spread, a terrifying will enveloped the entire Blue Star! The Sage-stage existence¡¯s aura swept through the world, and the low-rank apocalyptic Evolvers could only tremble. Even the Stage Five powerhouses also felt like they were suffocating under such terrifying pressure. All those below the Sage-stage were just ants! Nightmares turned into reality at this moment! In the ever-spreading sea of ??blood, a huge body emerged¡ªit was the Blood Lord! His eyes scanned the entire Blue Star, and he finally fixed his eyes on the dark mountain range. Icy words then vibrated across the air. ¡°Link, I know that it is you who is going to awaken the¡¯s will. If you don¡¯t return quickly, I shall ughter the entire human race!¡± The human powerhouses¡¯ hearts sank, and their expressions changed wildly. This terrifying abyssal Sage wanted to use the entire human race to threaten Link! If Link didn¡¯t give up the n, the entire human race would be destroyed! Once Link gave up on awakening the¡¯s will, he wouldn¡¯t be able to resist the Blood Lord even if he returned! Stage Nine Sage¡ªthis was a terrifying existence powerful enough to kill everyone! But at this moment, a vast aura suddenly arose from the¡¯s depths. A huge figure appeared between the sky and the earth¡ªit was Link, who had been magnified countless times by the nomological powers! He had awakened the¡¯s will... or rather, he had reced the¡¯s will! At this moment, Link¡¯s aura reached the level of a god. What¡¯s more, his aura was vaster and more majestic than the general gods of Order! Even though Blood Lord was a Stage Nine Sage, there was only fear left in his heart at this moment. Facing Link, he was the ant now... ¡°Impossible! The¡¯s will is the aggregation of the wills of many gods! Bing one with the¡¯s will should cause you to break down instantly!¡± The Blood Lord roared in disbelief. However, Link only had cold words in response to him. ¡°Too noisy!¡± When these words were spoken, the nomological powers followed. The power of the vast nomological powers shrouded the Blood Lord as the words fell, causing the tyrannical Blood Lord¡¯s body to be instantly shattered andpletely annihted! The Blood Lord wasn¡¯t able to resist at all! In an instant, a Sage died! Afterward, Link looked at the huge crack in the sky with an indifferent expression. The Blood Lord was right. The moment he merged with the¡¯s will, his physical body had broken down, but his spirit merged with the¡¯s will and reached the realm of the gods. As long as Link wished to, he could recreate his human body at any time or even create all kinds of other things. At this moment, he was the master of all nomological powers! With a wave of his hands, the huge abyss mouth in the sky disappeared, and all the other space rifts were annihted as well! Even the connection between the Abyssal Realm and Blue Star was cut off too! With Link in control of the nomological powers, the other worlds and realms would no longer be able to invade Blue Star actively. Even the gods asleep in the other worlds and realms would also be countered! In a short moment, the situation changed drastically. A nightmare-like horror was easily destroyed! Countless people stared at the huge figure in the sky nkly, unable to register what had just happened yet! Appearing at the top of the, the huge figure¡ªwhich had condensed from the nomological powers¡¯ rays of light¡ªand the fallen Sage from the Abyssal Realm constantly impacted their hearts. The entire world was quiet. The long river of time seemed to have gone stagnant, and dozens of seconds passed before everyone that was immersed in the crisis of death finally came around. Then, everyone on Blue Star instantly erupted! It was like hundreds of thousands of active volcanoes had erupted in an instant. The sound of the explosions shook the world, and the redva that swept into the world burst into mes of light that burned the sky! Cheers andughter joined together; excited and ecstatic people shouted indulgently, venting the uneasiness and panic that had been umting in their hearts. The people¡ªwho were almost suffocated under the Sage-stage Blood Lord¡¯s pressure¡ªall showed smiles of surviving through a cmity. The Doomsday haze that had been hanging over everyone¡¯s heads finally dissipatedpletely. The eyes of Yang Xuerou, Qiao Ruowei, and the others were shining, and they were full of respect and reverence for Link. ¡°That¡¯s the City Master; he did it! He really awakened the¡¯s will!¡± ¡°From now on, nobody will die to the waves of monsters anymore!¡± ¡°City Master, awesome!¡± The people from Unfallen City shouted with excitement, their faces filled with extreme fanaticism. When the Doomsday crisis descended, it was Link who overcame all obstacles and led them in establishing a human home city¡ªa city named Unfallen. The name signified the homnd of mankind that would never fall, giving them faith and hope! And now, when the Abyssal Sage descended, this man once again stood up. With the posture of a god, he protected the people on Blue Star and killed the Sage with a single sentence! This day was destined to be remembered by everyone! In the Forest of Darkness, the great sage looked at Link¡¯s figure in the sky, a relieved smile showing on his face. ¡°He reced the¡¯s will... Being a mortal, he was able to withstand the will of the gods? Perhaps only in this way can we end this Doomsday...¡± In the sky, Link felt the excitement of the people, and a faint smile appeared on the face made of nomological powers. Strands of nomological powers emerged one after another, and the people crushed into pieces by the Blood Lord¡¯s pressure began to resurrect one after another. On thend filled with death due to the erosion of the turbulent blood sea, new green shoots emerged, injecting new life into thend. Above the cities upied by high-level Undead monsters and abyss monsters, nomological powers also emerged. But this time, they were extremely overbearing. They swept through everything, wiping them away from Blue Star¡¯s surface. Whether it was destruction or life, they were both the graces of God! High-level monsters that were a huge threat to humans had all been annihted. As for the less threatening monsters, Link ignored them. This was the opportunity he left for the people to sharpen and improve themselves. After doing all this, Link¡¯s majestic voice sounded again. ¡°I said: all the mysteries asleep in the old days shall return from the embers of time.¡± After the words fell, phantoms emerged from behind Link. These were the ancient Blue Star gods who had fallen during the battle of gods countless years ago. All the ancient gods bowed their heads to Link in salute. With their recovery and reappearance, Blue Star¡ªwhich was already filled with the vast nomological powers¡ªbecame even more unfathomable! Divine brilliance rippled in the world, deterring the other worlds and realms. ¡°I said: this world shall never fall.¡± Link¡¯s majestic speech resounded through the countless worlds! ...

The boy¡¯s eyes were attracted by the stalwart statues standing in the center of the square and whispered the names of these gods. ¡°God of Light, God of War, God of Death...¡± Suddenly, the little boy raised his head and looked at his mother. He was a little puzzled and asked, ¡°Mom, don¡¯t these gods all possess unpredictable and mighty powers? Why are they all standing behind that statue? Is that god the most powerful?¡± Upon hearing these words, the young mother looked at the unique-looking statue standing in front of all the other god statues, and a touch of reverence shed across her face. ¡°That is the Lord of the Gods. He created the era in which we live and is, of course, the most powerful and noble. But it is said that the Lord of the Gods was only a mortal named Link in the beginning.¡± The little boy was puzzled. ¡°A mortal?
