Chapter 994 - Death Temptation (1/2)

The Undead Plane was so terrifying mainly due to the endless amount of Undeads. One could attack until their hands went limp from exhaustion, and they still wouldn’t be able to kill all the Undeads. There had been numerous expeditions to the Undead Plane in Noscent’s history, yet, the Undead Plane had only been conquered by a handful of individuals.

The rest all died in the Undead Plane, and most of them didn’t die from a battle injury, but from mana or stamina exhaustion.

It would be mistaken to believe that they would be safe if they flew up since Beastmen Skeleton Warriors couldn’t fly. There was a large group of Skeletal Wyverns in the sky, numbering over ten thousand. There was so many that it was impossible to count their numbers. Even if a Heaven Rank powerhouse didn’t die from being besieged by that group of Skeletal Wyverns, they would still be injured.

In fact, the ground was a bit safer. Although there was a huge amount of Beastman Skeleton Warriors on the ground, they were Level 10 and would be swept away by a casual spell. The fastest way to break through the encirclement was from the ground.

Dedale displayed the characteristics of the Burning Tower, he was the first to make a move in every battle.

Facing these low level Undeads, Dedale directly released the Magic Tool Incarnation of the Burning Soul and roused the magic robe to the point where they were on the verge of fusing.

Dedale swung that huge metal staff and orange flames spurted, transforming into a large wave of flames that washed over everything in its way. The ignited Undead Beastmen took less than a second before completely transforming into ashes.

Dedale started breaking through while the others formed a large group following him. Lin Yun also unhesitantly rushed out. The others might be thinking that Dedale was casually looking for a way out, but Lin Yun clearly understood, probing revealed that this direction had the least amount of Undead Beastman Warriors and it was where the Undeads were the most spread. The amount of chasing Undead was also at its minimum. This was most likely the best direction to escape from the siege.

When faced with the endless Undead Beastmen, no one dared to be careless and everyone was going all-out.

Dedale was rushing to the forefront with a ten-meter-wide wave of orange flames. The power of these flames could instantaneously kill Level 10 Undeads and everything covered by the flames would turn to ashes.

The Quicksand Tower’s mages could display far greater power here than in the temple. The pitch-black earth rapidly turned into sand, which rapidly surged and protected the Quicksand Tower’s mages. Waves of sand was spinning around them, and when they encountered Undead Beastman Warriors, the sand waves would crisscross and shatter their bones.

The Odin royal family, the Henry Family, and the Shadow Tower all used their own method to break through the siege. The Odin royal family let out a metal carriage dragged by puppet horses, the Shadow Tower let out a large amount of shades in the surroundings, using the shades to mislead the Undead Beastman Warriors, attacking to buy time and save power.. After all, saving power was key when facing an army of Undeads.

Sky City was the only force from the Odin Kingdom in a troublesome situation. Their floating fortresses were easy targets for the Skeletal Wyverns. The flying Wyverns couldn’t display their power within the dense army of Undeads, but in the sky, the huge advantage in numbers could be felt. They would crash if they didn’t hurry to put away their floating fortresses.

As for the Andlusa Kingdom’s side, it was led by Lin Yun. Lin Yun was fully using his Fire Elemental Incarnation and summoned an elemental sea of flames. Just like Dedale, he was using pure elemental flames to burn these Undead Beastman Warriors into ashes. From time to time, he would release a Flame Impact to clear all the Undead Beastmans within a few dozen meters.

Almost no Undead could get within thirty meters of Lin Yun.

Under Lin Yun’s lead, Jouyi, Harren, the Azurewave Sword Saint, and the rest of the Andlusa Kingdom were breaking through the encirclement at a speed no slower than the Odin Kingdom.

Although they were breaking through very smoothly, Lin Yun’s expression was very unsightly. Within one minute, they had already travelled two kilometers. That speed could be said to be really fast. Those Undead Beastman Warriors couldn’t stop them.

But after a sweep of Eagle Sight, they could see numerous Undeads covering the ground behind them. It was unknown how many there were, but there was forty to fifty thousands within sight.

Although the amount of Undeads ahead of them was lacking, it wasn’t that much inferior. However, the Undeads ahead of them were a bit weaker than the ones behind them, and there was fewer high level Undeads as well.

Behind them, a large number of Skeletal Wyverns were forming black clouds covering the sky, and four to five hundred Skeletal Kudos could be seen on the ground.

And far behind, there was also a cavalry unit with three to four thousand tall Undead Wolf Riders sitting atop their huge Skeletal Wolves. They were like arrows chasing through the sea of Undeads, directly trampling the Undead Beastmen blocking their way. They had trampled three hundred to four hundred Undead Beastmen while chasing over a kilometer.

Lin Yun was very clear about the consequences of being surrounded by these Undeads. No more than five out of thirty would be able to survive if they were surrounded.

Even Lin Yun, with his Natural Demiplane making him unable to run out of mana, wouldn’t dare to let himself be surrounded by these Undeads.

More and more Undeads appeared behind them as the group travelled over five kilometers. Those high level Undeads were already getting close, and with the Undeads in front slowing them down, being overtaken was only a matter of time.

They had almost escaped the encirclement at this time, there were only some scattered Undead Beastmen before them.
