Giovanni closed his eyes in despair as he felt the five rings binding his body and leaving with De Christy. A vampire's strong life force made it impossible for him to commit suicide. He could only become a puppet that was tightly controlled, and it was obvious how tragic his future would be.
He would become a human-shaped key who had lost all his freedom and was living a life worse than death. When the Bloody Lich wanted to enter the Incubus Kingdom, he would be able to play his role as a living human-shaped key. The Bloody Lich did not say anything wrong. As long as he did not die, everything else did not matter. Whether his tongue was pulled out or his limbs were chopped off, it did not affect him much …
With the Bloody Lich's ability, as long as Giovanni was alive, he could use the abilities of the Vampire Ancestors to enter the Nightmare Kingdom.
Out of the thirteen Vampire Ancestors, nine had fallen in the short span of a year. In addition to the one that had fallen a while ago, there were only three Vampire Ancestors left. Of these three, two had not appeared for a long time. Apart from feeling that they were still alive, they had not appeared for a long time.
Now that he saw the Bloody Lich, Giovanni completely understood that this was all a plot by the Bloody Lich to control all the Vampire Ancestors. He would either kill them or capture them and control them.
No one could enter and leave the Nightmare Kingdom freely, so no one could destroy his phylactery …
Giovanni knew that it was a flawless plan when he thought of everything that had happened in the Nightmare Kingdom. No one could escape, and even if someone could enter, they would encounter the Leopard-Tailed Worms in the Nightmare Kingdom. No one in the Nightmare Kingdom was a match for the Leopard-Tailed Worms. Even the Ancestor of the Vampires was unwilling to face the parasites that could actively use the power of the Nightmare Kingdom.
If the life box was hidden in the cryptic world of the Nightmare Kingdom, it would be even more perfect. At that time, other than the King of the Undead, no one would have the ability to destroy the soul of the Bloody Lich. Even if the King of the Undead did it himself, he would be completely trapped in the Nightmare Kingdom. The King of the Undead would never go to that place personally.
Giovanni felt even more hopeless at the thought of this, because he knew that the King of the Undead might be able to tear the Lich's body apart, but it would never be able to kill the Lich. After the soul was hidden, the Lich's body was just a shell that could be discarded at any time. After it was killed, it only needed to be resurrected in a body that had been prepared in advance.
There were so many undead creatures in the Undead Plane, and it wouldn't be difficult to find an undead creature to possess and be reborn. As long as he didn't expose himself, who would be able to find the Bloody Lich in the boundless land of the Undead Plane? Even the Undead King couldn't count the number of undead creatures in the Undead Plane.
After the war was started, with the Lich's eternal lifespan and abilities that were far more powerful than ordinary Undead creatures, it wouldn't be a problem for them to take revenge for thousands of years.
Most powerful liches were erudite and powerful experts when they were alive. After these people died, they became undead. When their wisdom and memories were awakened, they would transform themselves into liches.
There were also some terrifying mages. After reaching the end of their lives, in order to continue pursuing the true meaning of magic and the truth of the world, they transformed themselves into undead liches. Coupled with the terrifying knowledge they accumulated over a long period of time, every one of them was very powerful.
This was why the power of Liches was so terrifying. Every Lich was at least an Extraordinary Undead, and the Bloody Lich was a terrifying existence that had existed for countless years. After countless years, their knowledge had reached a completely immeasurable level.
De Chris was also very satisfied with his arrangements. Although the trap he had thrown before had been broken, it was enough to gather a lot of information.
He used all the languages and power systems from the Nesser Dynasty to the human era to calmly construct a transformation trap, turning a sacrificial ritual into a seemingly perfect Lich transformation ritual. This took a lot of time.
Since Noscent's Nesser Dynasty, De Chris had been continuously absorbing everything Noscent had developed. In the current Mage Era, he kept absorbing mage knowledge, but unfortunately, he still couldn't advance to level 50 and was forever stuck at level 49.
No matter how much knowledge he had, he couldn't advance again. If he wanted to advance, he had to find his own soul. And if a Lich couldn't keep his soul secret, then he wouldn't be far from death.
This was a problem of contradiction.
However, an opportunity had presented itself. The Leviathan Plane and the Undead Plane had suddenly collided. De Kriese did not know why this had happened, even though he had not noticed any signs of it.
But this was a rare opportunity. The Leviathan Plane was adjacent to Noscent, and it was Noscent's most important material plane. It was currently Noscent's largest colony plane.
The connection between the two worlds was very close. Opening a Planar Path was very easy, and they could even use Teleportation Arrays for transmission.
Between the two planes, Planar Paths could only be built. Being able to use large-scale Teleportation Arrays showed that the spatial barrier between the two worlds was very weak, and a part of the space was overlapping.
The Leviathan Plane didn't matter. After all, it was only a plane. But using the Leviathan Plane as a springboard to connect to Noscent, the Prime Material Plane, had a completely different meaning.
With a bit of provocation, the Undead started frantically attacking the Leviathan Plane in order to fight for a new territory.
Coupled with the information he received from the humans, De Christy released this information. No one would ignore the Undead and Dark Creatures that had awakened wisdom. Even the King of the Undead would not give up such an opportunity.
An opportunity to attack the Prime Material Plane!
A long time ago, De Chris still didn't know why the Undead King would have the intention to attack the Prime Material Plane. Even the Abyssal Demons, Greater Devils, and the most powerful peak powerhouses had the same idea.
But now, he finally understood.
Although the Undead Plane was considered one of the Higher Planes, the development of the Laws wasn't perfect. There were only countless branch Laws derived from the Darkness Law. Death and Darkness were the main themes here. The Undead Plane simply didn't have the Light Law or the power of light.
When this kind of defect reached its limit, it would be the most fatal …
From the moment the Undead King appeared in the Undead Plane, he was already the current Undead King. After countless years, De Chris understood why the Undead King rarely appeared in the Undead Plane. It wasn't that he wasn't in the Undead Plane, but rather that he was always looking for a way to advance.
After countless years, the Undead King still maintained his original rank and power. For any intelligent lifeform, especially a peak powerhouse like this, losing hope was the most terrifying thing.
Losing hope was the scariest thing. The Undead King had an immortal life, and time had lost all meaning to him. However, being immortal and unable to increase his power by even a little bit was the scariest torture.
Thus, the Undead King was always in slumber, using it to pass the endless time.
But if he could attack the Prime Material Plane and stimulate the Prime Material Plane's Origin, he would be able to advance a step further.
Unfortunately, it was too difficult for these powerful Higher Planes, Abyss, or Purgatory to attack Noscent. Powerful bindings and frightening restrictions made it impossible for them to easily appear in Noscent.
Greater Demon Overlords, Greater Devil Overlords, and Undead Kings, these terrifying lifeforms wouldn't normally appear in Noscent. If they tried to forcibly cross with their true bodies, they might be squeezed to death by the power of the two worlds. Even Greater Demon Overlords couldn't bear the pressure of the Prime Material Plane and the Higher Plane.
The Undead King couldn't give up on such a good opportunity, and neither could De Chris. This was De Chris' best chance to advance to Level 50, and it might also be his last chance.
The Nightmare Nation was such a good place to store souls, so he definitely couldn't let it go to waste. After getting rid of all the Vampire Ancestors, it wouldn't matter even if people found out about it later. At that level, they definitely wouldn't throw their lives away just to get rid of him.
De Chris slowly floated in the air, feeling very happy. It had been at least ten thousand years since he had felt this way. He took Giovanni with him and floated into the distance.
Thinking about how he had easily tricked two powerhouses of the same level and three level 48 powerhouses, all five of which were Saint Alchemists, De Creese felt very happy.
Although his previous plan had been exposed and the trap had lost its effect, he had still obtained some information. Five of the six Saint Alchemists had already died inside. Those humans definitely wouldn't be able to stop the Undead Plane from devouring the Leviathan Plane.
The last Saint Alchemist hadn't come yet, but a Skeleton King had come. It looked like Fergus had already awakened, but it didn't matter. Once he advanced to Level 50, Fergus wouldn't need to care.
After all, that fellow was just a damned stupid Undead with power. Knowledge was power, and wisdom was the best way to solve problems. If it wasn't for my wisdom, it probably wouldn't have been so easy to trick that terrifying human from before into my Nightmare Kingdom.
'Even if Fergus personally came, he definitely wouldn't be able to do what I did …'
De Christy could not help but feel a little proud. For countless years, he had been doing his own research in the Undead Plane, and he rarely showed his wisdom to the outside world. De Christy could not help but feel a little proud that he had achieved such a perfect result in his first attempt.
He didn't use power to fight, but instead used wisdom. This was the most important reason why De Chris looked down on the Undead even though he was an Undead.
