Chapter 749
Boundless Death Energy transformed into thousands of sharp arrows that appeared behind the Lich King. Then, thousands of arrows shot out in unison. Each arrow was made of high-level Demonic Energy derived from Origin Energy. It was equivalent to a Finger of Death with a sure-death attribute.
As long as one was hit, the death energy would flow into one's body and sever their connection to life, leading to the target's death.
Generally speaking, humans of their level would die upon contact with it. Only Legendary humans who had reached the third stage of release of their [Origin] would be able to resist the onslaught of death of this level.
In the past, this kind of Finger of Death spell was considered a big move. After all, the world's mana was insufficient, but now that the Lich King had seized the world's source power, Finger of Death had become a regular spell.
This was also taking advantage of the fact that the world's consciousness had just been born and hadn't matured enough to control the world yet. Otherwise, the world's source power wouldn't have been so easily intercepted.
Little Nai looked at the countless arrows of death and sighed. As the Yin Emperor, he naturally had the authority of the Underworld and could mobilize the Underworld's source power.
But Little Nai soon discovered that he couldn't compete with the Lich King.
After all, although Little Nai was the Yin Emperor, he hadn't walked the path of death, and the Underworld's consciousness had just been born, so he couldn't help Little Nai.
Thus, if he wanted to defeat the Lich King, he needed other help.
The soul network quickly spread out, and the pitch-black curtain of darkness in the sky came to life at this moment. After removing the shield, countless clouds poured down from the sky, turning into an endless pitch-black river, blocking the arrows of death.
Countless undead gathered behind Little Nai and turned into servers. Through Little Nai's soul network, they ran the special program he wrote to help Little Nai absorb the supernatural energy that gradually increased in nature.
The human allied army wasn't idle either. At this time, the Celestial Army's message arrived. Countless undead turning into allies was a good thing.
As long as they got rid of the Lich King, the Undead Calamity caused by the Lich King would subside.
The undead would be the undead, and the living would be the living.
The hunters of the Hunter's Guild weren't in a hurry to help. The world had changed, and the amount of mana in nature had increased. The battle situation had completely changed, so they needed some time to adapt.
But soon, the little AI couldn't hold on any longer, and the hunters had no choice but to step forward to help.
After all, the Curtain of the Dark Heavens was a spell researched and improved by the Lich King. Although the Undead Army had rebelled and the authority over the Curtain of the Dark Heavens was seized, the Lich King was still one of the existences that understood the Curtain of the Dark Heavens the best.
Although Little Nai's research on the Curtain of The Dark Heavens was no less than that of the Lich King, it couldn't stop the rapid rise of the Lich King's power.
The Lich King was sitting on a gold mine to earn money. His understanding of death allowed his power to increase rapidly.
The Path of Death's construction was nearing completion.
Such an existence, if it were in a world with mature power, could easily use the rules of truth to destroy a planet.
Fortunately, no matter how talented the Lich King was, he was still in a low-magic world. He still had to slowly explore the use of natural magic. Besides, he had just obtained the Truth of Death, so he needed time to familiarize himself with it.
Because of this, his current strength was still in a manageable state.
As the hunters joined in, the pressure on Little Nai increased. This guy was quickly adapting to the Truth of Death through hunting.
Every moment, new spells were created by the Lich King. From the Reversal Spell to the Awakening of the Dead, to the Ghost Wave that forced the soul to separate from the body, to the Death Whisper that induced suicide, and other spells were quickly developed by the Lich King.
"This is death!" The tattered cloak on the Lich King's back was quickly repaired, and a large black robe with a hood covered his skeletal body.
Endless death aura turned into flesh and blood and filled his body. He lifted his hood, and his white hair fluttered in the wind. The Lich King completed two more spells, the Embrace of the Dead and the Body of Death.
"Death is the end!" The pitch-black robe on the Lich King's body protected him. This Embrace of the Dead was weaved from countless dead souls. It had the ability to sense death. Anything that could bring danger to the Lich King would be sensed by the Embrace of the Dead. Even a thought that had just arisen would be sensed by the Embrace of the Dead. It had advanced prediction abilities.
As for the Body of Death, just as the Lich King said, death was the end. Every attack also had an ending moment. Any attack that hit the Body of Death was the moment of death.
Therefore, those attacks could not hurt the Lich King's body at all. Instead, because of the ending of the attack, the death aura would be generated and continue to strengthen the Body of Death.
"This is the true Absolute Defense!" the Lich King said. Nothing could hurt him anymore.
Then, a Crimson Blade appeared out of thin air. The Lich King also stretched out his hand and grasped the Crimson Blade tightly.
Endless death aura surged, and the Crimson Blade instantly collapsed, turning into a large amount of death aura.
"I can smell the scent of an old friend. My old friend, have you come to offer your life?" the Lich King looked to the side, only to see that Lei Ang and Ren Xiu had already appeared there.
"No, I'm here to kill you" Lei Ang looked at his former companion and couldn't help but shake his head.
When Lei Ang first became a follower of Killer J and entered the world of supernatural beings, he chose to leave his punk-ass group. In his words at the time, he said: "This group's tolerance is too small, it can no longer accommodate my ambitions"
After that, the Lich King sought out Lei Ang, saying that he wanted to use his strength to show his brother his tolerance, and engaged in several one-sided duels with Lei Ang.
At the time, Lei Ang had already released his [Origin] and practiced a hitman body technique, so how could the Lich King, who was only a normal punk-ass, possibly win against Lei Ang?
Things should've stopped there, but after another 'duel', the Lich King encountered his own terrible day, just like how John Higgins encountered his own terrible day.
The sewer of his rented house burst, causing a large amount of dirty water to flow into his room, so he had no choice but to return to the house that threatened to sever all ties with him. Because he didn't tell his girlfriend that he was going to duel Lei Ang, if she couldn't find him, she would most likely go to his house to look for him.
The Lich King then saw his parents who committed suicide by burning charcoal, his younger brother who was taken away, as well as his girlfriend who came to find him, only to be tied to a pillar and die together with him.
His father who failed in the stock market and caused his entire family to go bankrupt, his mother who had no ideas of her own, his younger brother who didn't understand anything, and his girlfriend who loved him.
The Lich King sat in his room for an entire day, and when he left, he had already taken four skeletons with him.
From that day onwards, he was the Lich King.
