Chapter 2411 Stone Pillar

“Ka ka ka…”

As the necromancy attribute mental strength was injected, the sealing chains on the door gradually slid open to the sides.

“Ka!”

The door revealed a tiny crack.

The aura of the undead!

Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat!

As the seal on the door was progressively undone, a rich aura of the undead leaked out from the crevice of the sealed stone door!

Good stuff!

Fang Heng had been searching for the aura of the undead to enhance his necromancy experience points.

Since his necromancy had already reached the grandmaster stage, leveling up had become extremely difficult, requiring the absorption of massive amounts of experience points.

This was why he had focused his attention on the shady line rift area recently.

He hadn’t expected to find purified undead aura here!

“Bang!!!”

With the last few layers of the entangled sealing chains pulled away, the door burst open with a loud bang, and a wave of undead energy surged out from behind the door!

“It’s the undead aura!”

The other necromancy players following behind immediately showed their excitement, gathering their imprints to absorb the aura in front of them.

Fang Heng quickly raised his hands, condensing an imprint in front of him.

“Whoosh!!!”

A surge of death aura flowed from the outside into his sea of consciousness.

[Hint: The player absorbs the undead aura, necromancy experience points +2,010.]

[Hint: The player absorbs the undead aura, necromancy experience points +2,219…]

Effective!

This was indeed purified undead aura!

However, the concentration of the aura wasn’t very high.

After a brief attempt, Fang Heng stopped.

Tan Shuo and Li Shaoqiang took a few steps back, not absorbing the undead aura like the other players. Instead, they looked at Norbert, their eyes filled with skepticism.

“What’s going on?”

Didn’t they say the underground passage contained a sealed death knight?

What was with this pure undead aura?

Norbert also had no intention of absorbing the undead aura. After observing the dark passage behind the door for a moment, he turned and replied, “This might be the power emitted by the death knight. There are rumors that the undead faction has sealed and restricted the death knight’s strength, continuously draining its power to maintain the operation of the Tower of Bones.”

As he spoke, Norbert’s spirit gradually became more excited, “Everyone, it seems we’re on the right track. If we can find the sealed death knight, we might be able to use its power to defeat the Holy Court!”

“Let’s go! The space where the death knight is sealed is below. Let’s check it out!”

Norbert urged everyone to continue forward.

If it were a normal time, having such a good opportunity to absorb undead aura to elevate his necromancy level, only a fool would follow Norbert down to investigate.

Unfortunately, the Holy Realm’s forces were already at their doorstep.

Staying behind to absorb the undead aura was no different from waiting for death.

The players quickly recognized the urgency of the situation. They ceased their absorption of the undead aura and followed Norbert into the sealed passage behind the door.

As they entered the lower passage, the concentration of undead aura gradually increased. Soon, they came upon a new hall.

Upon seeing the scene within the hall, everyone halted in their tracks.

What was that…?

In the center of the hall floated a large, dark golden diamond-shaped stone pillar.

Thick streams of black undead aura poured out from the stone pillar.

Surrounding the pillar, layers of magical arrays rotated, converting the overflowing undead aura into necromancy energy, which was stored in the numerous undead jars placed along the hall’s walls.

The entire hall was filled with an intense atmosphere of undead aura!

Fang Heng’s gaze immediately focused on the diamond-shaped pillar, a look of seriousness flashing in his eyes.

The seal!

Moreover, it was a seal of holy power!

Even though the outer layer was filled with abundant undead aura, Fang Heng could distinctly sense the ripples of holy power emanating from within the suspended stone pillar!

However, the holy power was sealed within the external magical array, which was why most players present couldn’t detect it.

This was clearly abnormal!

Fang Heng glanced around again.

The Great Hall was clearly in stark contrast to the abandoned state of the previous area. It was remarkably clean, indicating that someone had been maintaining it regularly.

The magical arrays etched on the ceiling and floor were functioning perfectly, suggesting they were carefully attended to.

Fang Heng raised his head to observe the magical arrays above. A significant portion of the necromancy energy that leaked from the sealing stone pillar was being slowly absorbed by the overhead magical arrays.

At present, he couldn’t determine where the energy ultimately led…

Lowering his gaze, Fang Heng turned to the corner of the hall, where several small teleportation magical arrays were located.

It seemed that the undead faction’s tower masters were using those small teleportation arrays for their comings and goings.

While Fang Heng was contemplating, he heard Norbert’s deep voice, “Yes! That’s it! The death knight is sealed right there. If we can find a way to release the death knight, we might be able to fight the Holy Court!”

The other players entered the hall, surveying the layout of the Great Hall.

One middle-aged player asked, “What do we do next?”

“Naturally, we need to break the seal,” Norbert replied confidently.

“I know we need to break the seal, but what exactly should we do? How do we break the seal?”

Norbert took a deep breath and nodded, saying, “The seal is divided into two layers. The inner layer is a holy seal, and the outer layer is a necromantic seal. We first need to find a way to dissipate the surrounding necromantic energy, allowing the surplus death energy to escape. This will weaken the overall strength of the seal. If we are lucky, the seal might even break on its own…”

“Everyone, what are we waiting for? Let’s get started.”

Upon understanding Norbert’s implication, the accompanying players felt a surge of excitement.

Such a good opportunity? They could directly absorb external energy!

It couldn’t be better!

They could gain necromancy experience points while also breaking the seal!

It was a win-win situation!

The necromancy players wasted no time, immediately raising their hands to condense their imprints, opening themselves to absorb the surrounding undead aura.

“Fang Heng, what’s wrong? Do you feel like something is off?”

Tan Shuo, noticing that Fang Heng wasn’t moving, approached him and asked quietly, “Is there something wrong with the undead aura here?”

“I haven’t found any issues with the undead aura,” Fang Heng replied, looking at the black fog enveloping the central stone pillar. He nodded and said, “It’s just that this seal feels strange to me. Why is it a holy attribute seal? Was it left here by the Holy Court?”

“That’s possible.”

Li Shaoqiang stepped closer and askied, “What should we do now, Mr. Fang?”

“Since we’re already here, let’s absorb the energy first and see what happens next.”

After all, Punoze had already been pummeled by the Holy Court to this extent. How much worse could it get?

Besides, he was in desperate need of necromancy experience points.

With that, Fang Heng quickly raised his hands and condensed an imprint in front of him.

He injected his mental strength into the palm imprint, initiating the absorption of the surrounding undead aura!
