New City of Silver.
After Bai Xiaowen returned, the first thing he did was test the effects of the Power of Death.
As expected, the Power of Death could be used by Bai Xiaowen like Quintessential Essence to cast skills like Lightning Strike.
However, the Lightning Strike spell released through the Power of Death was a little special. It was pure black lightning. It was the complete opposite of the lightning in the natural world or the lightning released by Quintessential Essence.
This pure black lightning was very powerful, but it lost the "exorcism" effect of the normal Lightning Strike spell. Instead, it had a special effect that was inclined towards darkness. It exuded an aura of aging and death.
Bai Xiaowen understood that the so-called skills were actually the use of energy. The special effects of the skills depended on the attributes of the energy used.
Of course, every energy had a suitable use (skill), and there were also skills that didn't match. For example, the Power of Death and the Lightning Strike spell were clearly not compatible.
If there was a darkness-type spell, the Power of Death would be even stronger.
Thinking of darkness-type spells, Bai Xiaowen suddenly thought of his undead summoned creatures.
Back then, Bai Xiaowen had chosen a candidate for each of the four leaders — the Bone, Corpse, Soul, and Sanguine. He injected 10 points of the Power of Death into them, allowing them to leap over the dragon gate and advance to a template. Furthermore, they became the leaders of the four races and possessed the unique skills of a leader.
If Bai Xiaowen wanted to choose a new leader, such as reelecting the Sanguine leader, he would need to retract the Power of Death from the Sanguine Overlord, Vladimir, and inject it into the new Sanguine leader.
From this point of view, the position of the leader of the race was a little like an official position. There was a carrot and a hole. Bai Xiaowen couldn't appoint two officials with the same position at the same time. If he wanted to appoint a new official, he had to get the old one to step down.
But now, Bai Xiaowen could freely use the Power of Death. Then, could he inject the Power of Death into his other subordinates to make them stronger without replacing the leader of the race?
He did as he thought.
Bai Xiaowen summoned the shadow assassin. This was one of the first batch of summoned creatures to follow him.
The shadow assassin's self-awareness was only equivalent to a five-year-old child. Its advantage was that it didn't have the willfulness of a child and was absolutely obedient.
Bai Xiaowen tried to inject 10 points of Death's Power into the Shadow Assassin.
The Shadow Assassin's body suddenly trembled. It fell to its knees, then fell to the ground and rolled around madly.
Bai Xiaowen's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he was mistaken? When the Four Heavenly Kings were strengthened by the power of the Grim Reaper, they did not seem to be in such pain.
With a thought, Bai Xiaowen extended a finger, wanting to retrieve the Death God's power and relieve the Shadow Assassin's pain.
Unexpectedly, the Shadow Assassin suddenly rolled away and spat out a stuttering sentence with difficulty, "No, I want …"
Bai Xiaowen's eyes widened. The Shadow Assassin had taken the initiative to object! Compared to her self-awareness of 3 to 5 years old, such an objection required a lot of courage. This also showed that the power of the Grim Reaper was of great significance to the Shadow Assassin.
In the end, the shadow assassin made it through.
She supported herself with her hands on the ground, her knees still weak as she panted heavily. Of course, this panting was only a natural reaction when the spiritual energy in her body was circulating wildly. It did not represent true breathing.
Bai Xiaowen's Eye of Evolution swept over and suddenly discovered that the Shadow Assassin's aura was completely different from before.
In terms of total spiritual energy, a Level-16 Shadow Assassin had 2,200 points of spiritual energy. She was already at the commander level.
Following that, Bai Xiaowen tried the priority and found that the Shadow Assassin had indeed advanced to the commander level, raising her profile by one.
As expected! This won't affect the Four Heavenly Kings' position as the leaders of the tribe, but it can strengthen my other summoned creatures! Bai Xiaowen was somewhat excited.
The Shadow Assassin knelt in front of Bai Xiaowen. "M-Master, I want it."
Crack.
The crystal ball fell to the ground and shattered into glass shards.
Bai Xiaowen looked in the direction of the sound and saw Kelowan, who had been brought back to the City of Silver, looking over in surprise.
A drop of cold sweat appeared on the back of Bai Xiaowen's head. He had wanted to correct the Shadow Assassin's mistake just now. He was not a pervert!
"Kelowan, what are you doing here?" Bai Xiaowen coughed and assumed the air of a ruler.
"I want to go back." Kelowan had indeed come to bid farewell.
"Got it. I'll send a team of soldiers to escort you back to the human borders." Seeing that Kelowan still wanted to object, Bai Xiaowen waved his hand without hesitation. "It's settled then."
Currently, only the human kingdom's territory was a safe zone. There were still a small number of low-intelligence wandering demons in other regions. Kelowan's small body had the air of a leader, but he did not have much combat power. It was really not reassuring.
"… Yes."
Kelowan lowered his head and agreed.
After Kelowan left, Bai Xiaowen carried out a new round of experiments on the Shadow Assassin.
As the Shadow Assassin had absorbed 10 points of Death's Power and was already in a state of extreme pain, Bai Xiaowen chose to accumulate it bit by bit to test the Shadow Assassin's absorption limit.
In the end, the Shadow Assassin absorbed 17 points of Death's Power and reached its limit. The newly injected 18th point of Death's Power was unable to integrate into her spiritual energy system. It only wandered around her body and wreaked havoc. The Shadow Assassin seemed to have been inflicted with a negative status that caused her to constantly bleed.
Bai Xiaowen hurriedly stopped and retracted the point of Death's Power.
The Shadow Assassin's aura was fixed at the leader level. However, it was not considered weak among the leaders.
Bai Xiaowen had an idea. He directly injected 17 points of Death's Power into the next elite summoned creature, the Skeleton Warrior.
Unexpectedly, the Skeleton Warrior didn't manage to hold on. It directly exploded into bone fragments that filled the sky.
"Uh, sorry …"
Bai Xiaowen sighed. There were two possibilities. The first was that each summoned creature had a different tolerance limit. The Skeleton Warrior's tolerance limit was not as high as the Shadow Assassin's. The second possibility was that he injected 17 points of Death's Power in one go was too much. He should have done it step by step. He should have given 10 points first and accumulated them bit by bit.
Bai Xiaowen continued with his experiments. After all, the summoned creatures in Death's Appearance, including the Four Heavenly Kings, would not truly die.
Finally, Bai Xiaowen found out the pattern of injecting Death's Power.
To upgrade from normal to elite, it required 4 points of Death's Power. For example, Zombie Dog, Undead Archer, etc., their tolerance was around 5 points. The best among them could withstand up to 7 points of Death's Power and become rare elites.
To upgrade from elite to leader, it required 10 points of Death's Power. The tolerance of elite creatures was around 15 points. The strongest elite creature was actually the Undead Demon Arcane Master. It withstood 22 points of Death's Power and became a genuine rare leader.
