Chapter 2433 Try again
Ji Xiaobo pursed his lips and looked at the group of people, saying, “I really have to hand it to them. These old guys keep telling me that I can find a path to further advancement in necromancy here. I’ve been hanging around for a while, and it looks like, once again, I probably won’t find anything.”
“With this much time, it’d be better to have a good fight with those guys from the Holy Court.”
While Ji Xiaobo was complaining, he suddenly shifted his gaze to an entrance in the stone chamber passage and let out a slight “hmm?”
“Hm?”
An anomaly occurred at the entrance of the passage.
A vast expanse of bone barrier spread out across the ground!
“Boom! Boom boom boom!!!”
The Wall of Bones shattered with a thunderous explosion!
The necromancer elder’s control skill, ‘Swamp of the Dead’, was abruptly interrupted.
Ji Xiaobo raised his eyebrows and thought, this is impressive.
The Wall of Bones could be used this way?
In the Undead Council, the central elder’s strength and experience far surpassed those of an ordinary tutor. Reacting swiftly, the elder noticed the control skill had failed and quickly began to rotate the phantom of the scepter in hand.
“Chi! Chi chi chi!!!”
Several shadow waves swiftly spread out towards the scene!
Where the waves passed, dark-colored light screens emerged, and dense shadow tendrils began to crawl out from the ground and walls.
Behind the passage, Tan Shuo and Li Shaoqiang’s hearts sank as they witnessed the scene.
The invaders in the stone chamber were incredibly powerful.
The old tactics were completely ineffective!
They couldn’t even get close to the passage.
Fang Heng, too, furrowed his brow tightly.
The strength of these invaders was more than double that of the team they had just encountered! Their spellcasting and reaction abilities were extremely agile!
The death realm was indeed formidable!
“Gather!”
Facing the dense shadow tendrils that were approaching, Fang Heng narrowed his eyes.
In this case, the only option was to use that move!
Whoosh!!!
With a flick of his wrist, the great holy sword manifested in Fang Heng’s palm.
Almost simultaneously, Fang Heng felt a searing, intense pain radiate from his hand!
The pain was excruciating!
And this was in the possessed state, which had greatly diminished the sensation of pain,
Fang Heng saw his entire right hand enveloped in holy fire, burning fiercely!
The backlash was so severe.
“Huh!”
Enduring the agonizing pain, Fang Heng swung the great holy sword forward!
“Boom!! Boom boom boom!”
Immediately, a burst of shadow tendrils ahead shattered explosively under the swing of the great holy sword!
Buzz…
The Tier 2 holy attribute waves carried by the great holy sword rapidly spread forward!
“Bang! Bang bang bang bang!!!!”
All the dark barriers and shadow tendrils along the passage were shattered and disintegrated by the waves, and even the undead invaders within the passage were pushed back several steps by the residual waves.
What?!
The necromancers’ hearts raced wildly at the sight.
Holy power?!
At the death realm! In the mausoleum of Queen Persephone! A mausoleum guard priest wielded a holy element great sword?
It felt like an absurd joke!
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, no one would have believed such a claim.
Even the undead council’s central elders revealed expressions of disbelief.
They couldn’t fathom what they were witnessing.
Could Empress Persephone actually use the Holy Court’s power?
The few remaining players in the team were equally baffled.
Know oneself and know one’s enemy? Master the enemy’s strengths?
“Hey, that great sword just now…”
Ji Xiaobo’s gaze was fixed intently on the mausoleum guard priest.
The great sword that the priest had just wielded looked incredibly familiar!
It was strikingly similar to the one Fang Heng had previously acquired from the shady line!
The additional skills were identical, almost as if they were the exact same weapon!
Ji Xiaobo couldn’t help but glance at Feudal Lord Dani.
Feudal Lord Dani’s eyes also revealed a trace of astonishment.
Could it be that the great sword had some connection with the great holy sword from the shady line?
At the stone chamber passage opening, seizing the opportunity presented by the effectiveness of the holy weapon’s strike, Fang Heng immediately dashed toward the depths of the stone chamber!
This was a golden opportunity!
Previously, Fang Heng hadn’t attempted it himself, merely assuming that all equipment would be unusable in the Will possession state.
It was only after the previous encounter with the death knight that he realized the truth.
The holy weapon was unrestricted, and able to be used in nearly any environmental condition!
However, due to the current physical attributes, the academic integration effects could not be converted into sacred studies. Thus, using the great holy sword was a desperate measure, and even with this, his entire right hand up to the forearm had been completely burned away by the holy fire!
The good news was…
The stone chamber was now right ahead!
The holy power emanating from the great holy sword completely surprised the undead faction.
The central elder guarding the passageway’s opening became more solemn. He brought his hands together, condensing a mark in front of him.
The scepter hovered before him.
Dark shadows rapidly gathered and formed a phantom of a dark, corrosive dragon in mid-air!
“Roar!!!!”
The dark-corrosive dragon let out a roar and, under the elder’s control, lunged straight at Fang Heng in the passageway!
The undead council’s central elder kept a tight watch on Fang Heng.
The passage was so narrow that there was no way he could escape!
Fang Heng, positioned within the passage, immediately felt a powerful force surging toward him.
He sensed that he was locked on by the aura.
Since he couldn’t dodge, he would have to face it head-on!
Break through it!
Whoosh!
The great holy sword reappeared, this time in his left hand.
“Slash!”
Fang Heng gripped the sword and swung it forward, meeting the dark-corrosive dragon head-on!
“Boom!”
Golden light flashed!
The dark-corrosive dragon emitted a violent roar in mid-air, and the undead black fog exploded, nearly filling the entire passage in an instant!
“Buzz…!”
The Tier 2 holy ripple from the great holy sword shot forward, purifying the black fog left behind by the shattered dark-corrosive dragon!
Not good!
The undead council’s central elder’s heart skipped a beat. He hadn’t expected Fang Heng to be so formidable. The control over the dark-corrosive dragon was interrupted, and he was forced to retreat a few steps. His willpower also suffered a minor backlash.
The surrounding necromancy scholars were stunned to see the mausoleum guard priest break through the central elder’s summoned dark-corrosive dragon.
The priest was even advancing rapidly down the passage towards them!
At this moment, Fang Heng’s hands were completely burned away by the holy sword.
“Hold him back!”
“His hands are ruined! He can’t use that move again!”
“Stop him first!”
The necromancy players quickly began to gather their spells.
“Bone spikes!!”
“Boom! Boom boom boom!!!”
A flurry of giant-sized bone spikes erupted from the shadows on the ground!
Almost instantly, the physical giant-sized bone spikes completely blocked the exit of the passage!
Fang Heng looked at the layers of giant white bone spikes that had appeared before him, a trace of disdain flashing in his eyes.
That was all?
