CHAPTER 470: CHAPTER 356: THE UNDYING WORLD

After the first vanguard team returned with losses, several Master Level Spirit Masters from the Spirit Control Bureau and Hongmeng Group formed an investigation squad to enter the secret realm within the Xiao Village sinkhole for investigation.

Soon, they discovered that this secret realm was akin to the Bone Wasteland, equally remnants of some ancient battlefield, inhabited by countless undead creatures with little value.

Due to the aura of the living on the investigation squad members, they were quickly attacked by nearby undead creatures.

These undead creatures formed an Undead Army and launched continuous attacks on them.

Among them were no shortage of Undead Monarchs and even Undead Dominators; coupled with their undead trait, this Master Level investigation squad nearly met with total annihilation.

Because the exploration value was not high and it was extremely dangerous, after the investigation, the Spirit Control Bureau temporarily sealed off this deep pit in cooperation with the Hongmeng Company. They only stationed people beside the deep pit to prevent the undead creatures that emerged from the pit from posing a threat to the surrounding areas.

But a week ago, the frequency of undead creature appearances in the sinkhole began to rise, and their strength grew stronger.

These undead creatures also carried potent miasma with strong corrosive properties that were very difficult to deal with and would be hard to counteract if allowed to spread.

Therefore, the Spirit Master currently in charge of the pit "The Necromancer Who Loves Planting Trees" sent out a request for assistance in the group chat.

And soon, there were responses.

With Kindness One Conquers: [Recent activities of Evil God believers in the Thundercliff area have been detected, I am investigating and am currently unable to leave.]

Cao Miao: [I don’t have any light or electric Spiritual Beasts, though willing, I am unable.]

And Hear The Murmuring Winds: [Master Lu, it’s fine to guard for a few days on short notice, but looking at this situation, you want to delve into the Undead World to investigate the cause of these undead creatures’ upheaval, right?]

Being that the group chat of Hongmeng Company’s executives had less than a hundred people, with many being in the Spirit Realm or relics for training, they naturally couldn’t receive the messages.

Currently, only three people responded; the others either didn’t see the message or didn’t have the strength or availability.

"Yes, we must indeed venture into the Undead World for investigation; we really need light or undead system Spiritual Beasts. Ordinary Spiritual Beasts simply cannot survive in the grey fog."

The Necromancer Who Loves Planting Trees replied.

If they did not investigate the cause of these frequent undead creature appearances, the undead from Xiao Village sinkhole would keep emerging, and it wouldn’t be possible to station Master Level Spirit Masters here indefinitely.

He was a Spirit Master who specialized in undead system Spiritual Beasts, which was somewhat better, but the Spiritual Beasts of other Spirit Masters could hardly grow in this place.

The short term would pose no issues, but over time, the reinforcing Spirit Masters would certainly be unwilling to stay here long-term.

"The Undead World, and undead creatures too!"

Upon seeing this message, Chen Mo’s eyes lit up.

This place seemed to be exactly what he needed right now!

Before, Chen Mo had wanted to form an Undead Army, after all, an Undead Army could significantly enhance Youyou’s strength.

Originally, Chen Mo had planned to take a trip to the depths of the Bone Wasteland to subdue some undead creatures when he had free time.

But now, it seemed this sinkhole might be an even better choice.

Perhaps, he might even activate the final travel coordinate in passing!

"Mengmeng, did you see the message in the group chat?"

Chen Mo went to the neighboring room to ask the beautiful woman with long hair.

For safety, he still planned to bring Sister Meng along.

"I saw it; I was just about to discuss it with you!"

Chen Meng nodded her head.

When she first saw the message, the idea of taking a stroll there had also arisen in her mind.

After advancing her totem, both she and the Bright Unicorn were somewhat "itching for action," eager to test what level of strength they possessed now.

"I can come over and assist."

After receiving affirmative responses, Chen Mo sent a private message to "The Necromancer Who Loves Planting Trees."

"Master Chen Mo, the world inside Xiaozhai Tiankeng is very dangerous."

Quickly, a reply came from the other side.

The tree-planting Necromancer’s real name is Lu Qi, and he had long heard of Chen Mo.

From the younger generation of Dongxia, he is the most promising Spirit Master, who became a Master Level Spirit Master at the age of 18, and is also an all-rounder.

Not only has he become the champion of the Young Chef Competition, but he has also discovered several rare evolution paths.

But as far as he knows, Chen Mo’s Spiritual Beast has only just broken through to the Monarch Level, so going into the Undying Secret Realm for investigation might be a bit too much for him.

If something were to happen to a talent like Chen Mo in the secret realm, he wouldn’t be able to bear the responsibility!

"Don’t worry! I’m coming with Chen Chuanqi!"

Chen Mo replied.

Although his Spiritual Beast’s true combat strength has already reached Overlord Level, the other party was considering his safety, so there was no need to emphasize the real combat strength.

Mentioning Sister Meng’s name would be more useful!

"Chen Chuanqi!? Who is that?"

The tree-planting Necromancer then sent a "shocked cat" emoji.

Since when did Dongxia have another Legendary Spirit Master, and he had completely no idea!

Moreover, this Legendary Spirit Master could be summoned by Chen Mo, which was simply unbelievable!

"It’s Chen Meng."

"What! Master Meng’s Spiritual Beast advanced to totem level!!!"

---------

Ba Yu City, Xiaozhai Tiankeng.

Endless gray fog spread throughout the Tiankeng, making it appear like a bottomless abyss, eerie and terrifying.

Crack! Crack!

At this time, there were crisp sounds of bones clashing coming from within the fog, and soon a Skeleton Leader wielding a Bone Sword and Bone Shield walked out of the mist. The deep blue Soul Fire burning in its eye sockets indicated that it was an Undead creature on the verge of advancing to Monarch Level.

Whoosh!

The next second, a whizzing sound of something cutting through the air was heard!

A massive iron hammer descended from the sky.

Bang!

The powerful force instantly shattered the Skeleton Leader into pieces, turning it into a heap of scattered bones, with even the skull showing noticeable cracks.

Outside the fog, a more than 4-meter-tall and hefty Skeleton Minotaur lifted the hammer weighing tons high up again, preparing to strike once more.

As Undead creatures, Skeleton Leaders are difficult to kill. The bones around it started to move swiftly, trying to reassemble themselves.

Bang!

The bone staff swung down forcefully once more, completely shattering the Skeleton Knight’s skull, and the Soul Fire also scattered apart.

However, quickly after, the Soul Fire began to re-condense, and under its guidance, bones from the surroundings started to piece back together.

This is the troublesome nature of Undead System Spiritual Beasts; they often have to be killed many times to be completely destroyed.

Behind the Skeleton Minotaur was a Plague Bone Bird with huge bone wings, and two Ghost Dead Trees flashing with ghostly fires and full of Death Aura.

A young man in a black down jacket, with pale skin and long hair, was sitting atop the Plague Bone Bird, overlooking the entire pit.

This long-haired young man was the Spirit Master known as "tree-planting Necromancer" in the group - Lu Qi.
