At this time, the sound of something tearing through the air echoed, making everyone's eardrums hurt. Those several hundred Bone Devils let out sinister roars as Dark Light Bullets filled with a thick aura of death fell down one after another.
The Bone Devils that were a hundred meters away took the initiative to attack them.
"Not good!"
Just as the sound echoed, everyone knew that the situation wasn't good. Dark Light Bullets could be said to be the Bone Devils' strongest attack. Each Dark Light Bullet was equivalent to a High Mage's all-out attack. If it was only one Dark Light Bullet, no one would care about it. But the fact was that it wasn't as simple as one, but several hundred!
What did several hundred mean?
That was equivalent to the strongest attack of a Mid-Rank True Spirit Magic Tool, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel!
Not to mention, the Dark Light Bullets were contaminated with the unique corpse poison of undead lifeforms. It had a terrifying corrosive effect, and even Archmages had no choice but to guard against that corpse poison.
"Rumble …"
Hundreds of Dark Light Bombs exploded at the same time. The momentum was astonishing. In an instant, the earth shook and the mountains shook. In the time it took for a spark to fly off a flint, dozens of ice walls that emitted a cold aura surrounded everyone before the Dark Light Bombs exploded. After a loud explosion, a series of "kacha kacha" sounds rang in their ears. The dozens of ice walls had already become riddled with holes in the violent explosion, and a large portion of them had even melted …
At this time, countless Skeleton Warriors raised rusted scimitars and rushed towards everyone like a tide. Delson and the others were scared out of their wits when they saw this scene, but they instantly reacted and raised their magic staves, bursting with a bright light as they cast spells one after another.
'Eh?'
At this time, Lin Yun noticed something wrong. Low Undead lifeforms like Skeleton Warriors had a certain chance of turning into Undead Essence after their Soul Fires were extinguished. He didn't have time to collect the Undead Essence after killing a few dozen Skeleton Warriors, when he saw four or five flickering objects flying in a certain direction.
Those flickering objects were Undead Essences!
'But, how could they suddenly fly away?
'Could it be …'
Lin Yun 'mind shivered. He took some time to look in the direction the Undead Essences flew in. He had some conjectures,' Baiers' tomb might be in that direction. '
Of course, this was only a guess.
High-level Undead creatures basically had the ability to absorb Death Energy, and the Undead Essence contained the purest Death Energy. Like this, everything could be explained. The Undead Essence was absorbed by a powerful Undead creature, and that Undead creature was most likely an Undead creature transformed from Baiers' body!
After confirming the direction of Baiers' tomb, it saved him a lot of trouble.
Surrounded by the Skeleton Army, everyone only needed a Low Tier Spell to reap the life of a Skeleton Warrior. After all, the weakest person in this group was a 7th Rank High Mage. Dealing with the weakest Skeleton Warrior was as easy as blowing off dust.
However, they soon discovered that there seemed to be no end to the Skeletal Warriors as they swarmed towards them in groups. Moreover, a few Bone Devils would occasionally appear among them …
In just a few seconds, everyone was drowned by the undead army.
However, at this moment, the small black hill suddenly shook violently and emitted a loud sound, as if it had been struck by something. The crushed rocks and white bones also fell from the violent shaking with a 'hua hua' sound.
"Crack!"
A black sword light seemed to descend from the sky, sweeping a huge momentum. Suddenly, a huge crack appeared on the black hill. A dazzling red light seeped out from the pitch-black crack, accompanied by a terrifying aura. A two-meter-tall Nightmare Creature wrapped in red flames walked out of the crack step by step. Then, it looked up to the sky and let out a roar.
At this time, the endless Skeleton Warriors seemed to have been injected with chicken blood and their attacks became even fiercer.
"Heavens … That's actually a Nightmare, a Higher Hellish lifeform, it has the power of at least level 30 …"
The moment the roar sounded, the people who were surrounded by the undead army discovered the existence of the Shapeshifter. They were so shocked that they couldn't speak. Then, they saw what seemed to be a skeleton sitting on the Shapeshifter …
That skeleton looked ordinary, no different from an ordinary Skeleton Warrior. The only difference was that it was wearing a broken black armor, and the longsword in its hand had long been rusted.
"Undead Horseman …"
Lin Yun, who was surrounded by countless Skeletons, only needed one glance to know that this was a troublesome opponent. That sword-light that split the hill was the masterpiece of the skeleton riding the Nightmare.
Lin Yun was in disbelief. There was actually an Undead Horseman here! Undead Knights were genuine high-level Undead creatures. The weakest among them was at least level-30. Judging from the strength of the sword aura just now, this Undead Knight's level was very likely to be at level-36.
Moreover, that Nightmare wasn't weak either.
When he first arrived, he roused his Magic Array to its pinnacle and carefully examined the area, but he didn't find any Undead Horseman. At that time, the countless Undead Horsemen had been enough to make them anxious. Only when that loud sound echoed and the small hill was split open did he understand that there was an Undead Horseman.
Before they arrived, that Undead Horseman was most likely slumbering.
The soul fire fluctuations of a slumbering Undead lifeform were pitifully weak. Back in the Bone Plane, there had been a Bone Devil slumbering, but that Bone Devil hadn't been slumbering for long, so Lin Yun could sense it at the time.
But it was different now.
The Undead Horseman in front of them had been slumbering for at least a few hundred years, or even close to a millennium. Its soul fire was already extremely dim, and the fluctuations it emitted were simply undetectable.
Perhaps because of its long slumber, the two phosphorus fires in the Undead Horseman's eye sockets were very dim, as if they could be extinguished at any time.
The appearance of a Higher Undead lifeform in this place was very dangerous for Lin Yun's group. If there was one, there might be a second one.
Lin Yun didn't say anything. He used Fire Elemental Incarnation and suddenly used a Flame Flash to charge at the Undead Horseman. The surroundings suddenly became hot, and a flame flashed, followed by a storm of fire spells exploding around the Undead Horseman.
"Who are you to dare disturb Sir Lagulin's slumber …"
The Undead Horseman let out an angry roar, but when it saw Lin Yun wrapped in countless flames, the two constantly throbbing Soul Fires suddenly shrank back into its eye sockets, and their throbbing wasn't as fast as before.
It was puzzled at first, not understanding why that young mage would make it tremble in fear. The Undead Horseman swung the ice-cold longsword in its hand, and the surging death energy swept towards the young mage.
"Lagulin, you're called Lagulin? Who are you, how did you become an Undead lifeform here … "
Lin Yun naturally knew that this was the effect of Undead Predator, but a Higher Undead lifeform like the Undead Horseman wouldn't be affected too much.
But when the Undead Horseman fought Lin Yun with Undead Predator, its power would inevitably be weakened.
He was very curious, how could a Higher Undead lifeform appear here …
After all, this was the second floor of the magic tower, and without any special reason, it was impossible for a Higher Undead lifeform to appear here.
After casting Haste on himself, Lin Yun hastily retreated and chanted one dark incantation after another. Along with his constantly changing hand gestures, the surrounding fire elements reached their peak.
"Hateful Human, do you know where this place is? His Highness Baiers definitely won't forgive you for trespassing …"
The Fire Spells fell on the Undead Horseman's body and caused countless sparks to fly. There were already four places on the Undead Horseman's back that were burnt black. This kind of damage might not be light for a Higher Rank Magic Beast, but it was no different from a tickle for an Undead lifeform.
The Undead Horseman's body suddenly shrank back as it stared at Lin Yun. Suddenly, the Nightmare beneath it let out a roar and turned into a fiery silhouette that pounced towards Lin Yun. At this time, the dense fire elements burst out once again, making the Undead Horseman let out an angry roar.
"His Highness Baiers?"
Lin Yun suddenly smiled, he had already found the answer. In the 8th Floor of the magic tower, the Heaven Rank Three-Eyed Secret Wolf had said that Baiers had secretly led people to the Tulan Mountain Range in an attempt to kill Emperor Zhantui, but they had ultimately failed. And this Undead Horseman should have been one of those people Baiers had led.
Moreover, the Undead Horseman hadn't been weak when he was alive, he should have had the power of a Sword Saint. But what Lin Yun couldn't understand was how he had turned into an Undead lifeform.
'Could it be Baiers' doing? '
Lin Yun raised his Runic Shield to resist the Undead Horseman's storm-like attacks. He held the Doom Staff horizontally in front of his chest, bursting with a bright light. At the same time, he poured mana into the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel and cast endless Low Tier Spells.
"Rumble!"
Countless dazzling spells tore through the air and exploded on the Undead Horseman's head. Even with the Undead Horseman's shocking hardness and terrifying magic resistance, the Undead Horseman's bones kept cracking under that flood of spells. By the time the last spell landed, a bone fragment was sent flying. At that time, a small crack could be seen on the Undead Horseman's head.
Generally speaking, Undead lifeforms were very troublesome, they were very hard to kill. If that Undead Horseman's injuries had been inflicted on a magic beast of the same rank, they would have already been seriously injured.
