Chapter 429: Beginning the attack

Inside the valley, there were grey like spire constructions all around and there was a strange conical altar in the center.The tip was like a ten meter long drill inserted into the ground and the whole thing was made of dark crystals, with a bright red outline made of runes.

A grey robed Necromancer priest was sitting crossed legged in the air above the altar with both hands open and chanting a spell.The source energy array underneath the stage was glowing with a dark red light and vigorous waves of energy were extracted from the ground.The energy spread in all directions from this altar and were stored in the towers of death all around.

There were several hundred towers of death containing a very terrifying energy!

The Necromancer priest slowly put down their hands and their hands were like withered branches.The face inside the cloak was a dead and withered face, that was layers of purple skin clinging to his skull.There were blue and purple flames of an undead burning in his eyes.

There was no doubt.

This was not a living thing, this was a true Lich.

The Lich’s withered face did not have any expressions and actually it couldn’t make any expressions.To the Lich, mood changes were very difficult and he had even already forgotten how to feel any emotions.

To a normal living being, two thousand years is enough to make anyone old and tired.Not to mention a Lich that didn’t have any sensation of touch, smell, sight, hearing, and any desires?He already had forgotten what it felt like to live and from the moment he was transformed into a Lich, he was doomed to lose the instincts of a living being.

Everything it was doing now was nothing more than a way of creating benefits for himself that was already deeply infused into his soul.He followed orders like a machine and whether it succeeded or not didn’t matter at all to him.

A Lich that had lived for two thousands years had long lost its humanity and was destined to follow one obsession.

The Lich’s empty body superimposed over the moonlight and countless complicated chants came from its mouth.The death towers around him suddenly began to tremble and with an explosion, the several hundred towers released their energy.A tidal wave of death energy like a volcanic eruption soared into the sky before turning into dark clouds that covered everything.

“Lord, the energy within these ruins are just too strong, it’s simply inexhaustible!”A Necromancer priest said to the Lich in a low voice, “It won’t be any problem for us to use this energy to create large amounts of undead.As long as we collect a certain amount of energy and send it all into Green City at once, those stupid gnomes will die instantly. At that time, Green City will become your territory and no one will be able to compete with us!”

“That human will come.”

The Lich spoke, but more accurately it didn’t open its mouth because the Lich’s human organs no longer worked, so naturally it did not have a vocal cord to make sound waves with.The Lich used his spirit energy to make the air around him tremble, creating a similar effect as speech. This required a very high level control of spirit energy and normal cultivators could study it for several dozen years and still not accomplish it.However, to an endless being like the Lich, using time to solve problems was not a problem.

His voice was not like that of a living being and it was a dry sound made from friction.It was sharp and coarse, not having a single bit of vitality to it.

The Necromancer priest disdainfully said, “It’s just a trivial human, why do we need to care?”

The Lich did not explain, but he understood in his heart.That human was not simple, he had lived for two thousand years, so he could still make this decision, “Send everyone out and block the Green City army.In just another forty eight hours, the ceremony will be complete. I hope it will not be interrupted.”

“Yes!”

The Lich was a being of absolute authority in the Necromancer priest’s mind, so there would never be anyone that resisted or questioned the Lich’s orders.

…………

At daybreak, in the central field in Green City, an army of one hundred thousand had gathered.

The gnomes’ Great Elder and the Green Religion’s High Priest Clark, the Demonic God Religion’s priest Delores, the Minotaur Arnold, the Shaman priest Luz, and various tribe chiefs had all gathered here.

Because of how urgent the situation was, they didn’t have time to gather more people.This world’s battles were not refined. If this center of the Forest of Chaos army were to go to the Southern Summer Country, the battle strength of these hundred thousand people were enough to destroy the armies of of the Southern Summer Imperial Region.

“We have made our preparations!”

“We ask the acting City Lord to give orders!”

The atmosphere was very serious.These people already knew that this battle’s outcome was not just related to the city, it would affect several hundred miles of forest and would even affect the survival of their clansmen.

They could only win and couldn’t lose!

Chu Tian moved forward leading eighteen silent figures.

This scene made people a bit stunned, wasn’t this kid always alone?Where did these eighteen fellows come from? Although they had never seen these eighteen people, when they stood by Chu Tian’s side, a mountain like pressure was released.

The Divine Blood Yin Corpses had been refined in Divine Blood for a long time, so naturally they had been reborn!

From their skin to their bones, from their flesh to their marrow, it had all been refined.Not only did they have the defense of top class cultivation techniques, they had the indestructibility of Spiritual Gods.
