Chapter 1401: Zombified
A terrifying amount of mana erupted from Lin Yun’s body like a spring, sustaining and empowering the elemental storm.
In the clash, the skeleton king’s mount was torn to shreds. Unfortunately, the elemental storm was too weak to tear its master apart. His body was no longer simple bones, but a combination of obscure crystals and metals. He could resist all spells below level-9 with nothing but his body. Even the level-9 spells could hardly destroy his body unless they suppressed him specifically.
After a dozen minutes, more and more undead creatures were torn to shreds, and the skeleton king ran out of patience. He raised his scepter, where the rotten heart was still beating, launching oily green light from the rotten heart.
The light fell into the elemental storm, and dispersed into a green mist, which was torn apart but still melted into the elemental storm. As the elemental storm spread out, the power of plague was spreading too.
Lin Yun had a bottle of potion. The Book of Death on his left hand automatically opened, and the Truth Chapter, which hadn’t been used for a long time, glowed. A crystal phoenix, as if just woken up, craned its head in the radiance, and stared at the rotten heart on the top of the skeleton king’s scepter through the blockage of the elemental storm and countless undead creatures.
There was originally an Eye of the Undead in the crystal phoenix’s claw, but it had been completely swallowed, so all the powers related to the Eye of the Undead were suppressed by the crystal phoenix. Also, the suppression was much greater than that of the holy light on undead creatures.
The suppression was on a fundamental level!
The crystal phoenix shrieked after it appeared. Instantly, the power of plague that dispersed in the elemental storm seemed to be somehow attracted to the crystal phoenix, which then opened its mouth and breathed, reducing the dispersing power of plague to green mist, green light, and eventually a drop of green blood. Then, it swallowed the blood.
After swallowing the drop of blood, colorful flames burnt on the crystal phoenix’s skin. Three seconds later, the crystal phoenix burped, and spouted a mouthful of green mist.
The crystal phoenix hovered above Lin Yun’s head, eager to attack the skeleton king and take over his Heart of Plague.
That kind of evil item was the crystal phoenix’s favorite. It would be able to suppress evils on a greater level as long as it swallowed the Heart of Plague. It would be able to suppress any power related to plague.
That was the most fundamental solution. To find out the core of evils with the eyes of truth, and eliminate the evils from the core was a solution that couldn’t be countered.
Lin Yun restrained the crystal phoenix’s urge, and let it hover above his head to resist the power of plague that might show up. Then, he quietly eliminated the undead creatures with the elemental storm.
The crystal phoenix flapped its wings impatiently, launching a colorful streak of light, and killing all the undead creatures within the radius of eight kilometers. Their soul fires were like candles in a strong wind that had been blown out at the same time.
Their bodies turned into rotten bones, and fell to the ground. During the fall, the bones rotted quickly, and broke apart into countless pieces, losing all their power of death.
Lin Yun shook his head, and didn’t scold the crystal phoenix for its tantrum. So many undead creatures, plus the Heart of Plague, were irresistible temptations for the crystal phoenix.
It was loyal enough for the crystal phoenix to stay and protect him.
However, Lin Yun knew that if he were to let the crystal phoenix charge forward, it would only be killed by the skeleton king with his scepter, and would have to return to the Book of Death, waiting for rebirth. The crystal phoenix was incapable of fighting the level-47 skeleton king who had Page’s scepter.
The cleaning went well. Although the skeleton king wasn’t hurt, there was nothing he could do when other undead creatures were removed. His attacks couldn’t hurt Lin Yun, either. The blood from the Heart of Plague was the most terrible source of plague, but it was only a dessert for the crystal phoenix.
The dilemma continued. An hour later, the last undead creature was torn to shreds, and its essence was swallowed by the Sage Chapter. Finally, Lin Yun ended the horrifying elemental storm.
After the elemental storm dispersed, a tremendous amount of dust fell to the ground. The land inside the cage had already been deepened by more than 300 meters compared to that in the world outside. The soil on the ground had been thrown to the sky by the elemental storm, and was dropping to the ground.
In the rain of mud, the skeleton king charged at Lin Yun, launching green light towards him like arrows.
The crystal phoenix above Lin Yun’s head sprayed colorful light that enshrouded Lin Yun. Those green arrows faded quickly upon hitting the colorful light. The power of plague in them was soon neutralized, leaving only the pure power of death.
Cracking noises burst out. The arrows hit Lin Yun’s Fusion Shield, causing dense ripples. Space crevices appeared at the points of impact between the Fusion Shield and the arrows.
After charging for a few seconds, the skeleton king suddenly vanished. Only the storm of arrows were still hitting Lin Yun’s Fusion Shield with the power of plague.
Lin Yun solemnly spouted a law rune. The next second, the skeleton king who wore a ragged cloak suddenly appeared behind Lin Yun. He held Page’s scepter in his left hand and a scythe that was more than five meters long in his right hand. His lips shivered as his soul fire sent out a series of information.
“Foolish human being, nobody can stop the great Lord Page from moving forward. All living lives will embrace the power of plague and die.
“You think we’re scared of the flying monkeys? Wrong. Death is the only eternity. The power of plague is a shortcut to the gate of death. Embrace your death. No stupid lives who carry the power of flying monkeys can stop us.
“You’re even more annoying than flying monkeys. You must die. Just go to hell…”
The skeleton king shrieked with a twisted voice. The information from his soul fire rolled towards Lin Yun like a blast. Then, dreadful power of death emerged on the gigantic scythe in his hand. He then waved his right arm, and slashed Lin Yun.
Lin Yun’s body was cut apart. An intense aura of death burst out, terminating all life. The skeleton king waved his scythe, laughing.
All of a sudden, Lin Yun, who had broken into two halves, turned vague, and fell apart like broken glass. The broken pieces of his body then disappeared like an illusion.
The skeleton king’s laugh came to an abrupt halt. Lin Yun reappeared in midair, with an electromagnetic track that was hundreds of meters long in front of him. A cannonball darted out of the track, and hit the skeleton king’s right shoulder.
