A Genius Remembers Love in a Second? Here's a fascinating novel for you to read.
The vortex continued to expand. Together with the cracks, it inflicted irreparable damage to the plane. Meanwhile, the two emperors in the vortex had disappeared for some time. No one knew where the flames of war had spread to. On the ground, the Red Skeleton Emperor had replaced the King of Undead as he commanded the army of undead.
The Carnelian Corpse Ruler, the Nether Bone Dragon, and the Misty Phantom Commander led by the Mountain Zombie began to push forward. They forced the army of undead to the dilapidated area of the Squaretrek Plain. The land was filled with the presence of death, after all. The strong presence of death shrouded the sky and the sun. The army of undead grew fiercer as the battle progressed. The army of undead led by the Sphinx, the Dark Pharaoh of Serpents, and the Scorpion Lord Medusa were already at a disadvantage.
The Sphinx had been fighting Mo Fan for a long time. The Scorpion Lord Medusa had even suffered serious injuries from Mo Fan. When the Mountain Zombie, the Nether Bone Dragon, and the Misty Phantom Commander took over the battle, the undead of the Ancient Capital immediately had the upper hand, not to mention that the sea of zombies, mountains of skeletons, and phantoms were stronger than the creatures that supported the Great Pyramid of Giza …
The deathlight of the Great Pyramid of Giza gradually shrunk. It was soon trapped within thirty kilometers of the Squaretrek Plain. The remains of the undead covered the cracks, abysses, ravines, and valleys. Most of them were undead.
"HISS!!!"
The Mountain Zombie seemed to have finally reached his peak. He raised the Sphinx high in the air. His arms were filled with the force of a Corpse Emperor as he slammed the Sphinx into the Pyramid.
The Sphinx could not stop its momentum, and was sent flying a great distance away. It finally came to a stop after crashing into the bottom of the pyramid. Its strength was greatly reduced due to the injuries it had sustained. It was having a harder time fighting the Mountain Zombie!
The Sphinx rose to his feet and let out a furious roar in the direction of the Pyramid. He would not have lost the battle so quickly if he had not expended too much energy fighting the demon.
Even the Underworld Commanders were being beaten to a pulp. The only thing keeping the Underworld Army going was their God of the Underworld.
The Sphinx represented the commander of the army, and the Nether God was their religion!
However, this place was supposed to be their base of operations, a beautiful desert filled with debris and ashes. For some reason, it had ended up like this. Even the Sphinx and the Dark Pharaoh of Serpents did not expect that after traveling to the distant land of the East, instead of conquering the place as they wished, they would taste the taste of defeat!
"Ao wu wu ~ ~ ~ ~ ~"
A black dragon aura burst out of the vortex that was growing bigger. The aura of an unknown Element turned into hundreds of dragons coiling in the sky. They surrounded the Emperor of the Black Battle Armor like servants, before turning into ferocious Desolate Beasts lunging at the Pharaoh in white!
The might of the black draconic aura was extremely shocking. One of the black draconic aura had accidentally entered the Square Trek Land. The black evil dragon instantly wiped out a large group of Underworld warriors. The draconic aura was almost unstoppable. After it wiped out the Underworld warriors, it wreaked havoc for a long time before slowly fading away. The Underworld creatures on the land were so shocked that they became like statues. They had completely lost their courage to fight.
Within the maelstrom battlefield, there were over a hundred of these black Dragon Qi waves. They chased after the Pharaoh, who was constantly dodging. At the same time, he was also using the Desert Scepter to neutralize the terrifying brutality of the Dragon Qi waves!
The black dragon aura had obviously consumed a lot of the Undead Emperor's energy. After unleashing the dragon aura, the Undead Emperor stood still and adjusted his breathing. The Pharaoh of Serpents finally nullified the dragon aura, giving him a chance to counterattack.
However, the Pharaoh of Serpents did not retaliate.
The Pharaoh of Serpents glanced at the battlefield, which was now twenty kilometers away from the Pyramid …
His army of undead was on the verge of collapsing. His Desert Scepter was already cracking as he was trying to defend himself from the dragon aura. Most importantly, he was unsure if the Pharaoh of Serpents was only pretending to be weak to lure him closer, or if he was actually trying to catch his breath, giving him a chance to counterattack!
Khufu could tell that the Undead Emperor's eyes were filled with the essence of the sun and moon over thousands of years, as well as the profound secrets of magic. He did not believe that the Undead Emperor was actually on the verge of collapsing …
However, the situation was not looking good for him. As the God of Underworld, if he did not defeat the Undead Emperor of ancient China, his army of undead would continue to collapse!
Damn it, that idiotic human dared to tell him that China was completely empty, and that the army of undead could simply invade without any hindrance and take over the country with an ancient magic civilization that dared to challenge his Kingdom of Khufu. In the end, the God of Underworld was suffering great losses. Even the God of Underworld was feeling a great pain in his heart!
He was only twenty kilometers away from the Undead Emperor's tomb!
An undying creature was only able to live as long as the Heavens because of its tomb. The Pharaoh believed the Undead Emperor had a palace of undead too. If he could take over the Undead Emperor's palace, Khufu would become the real God of Underworld, ruling over the world after death … he might even be able to compete with the God of Darkness!
"There's only one king in the Underworld," the Pharaoh Khufu said coldly to the Undead Emperor.
The Ancient King knew that the Underworld Khufu was referring to included his kingdom of undead.
The world of undead was known as the Underworld. The Pharaoh ruled over the Underworld in Egypt, while the Ancient King ruled over the Underworld in China. The other countries had their own Underworld too, but it was not worth mentioning. Any one of them could easily conquer all the Underworld in a short period of time.
The Ancient King had long lost interest in invading and unifying. It had been thousands of years since he was resurrected from the mausoleum, and his ambition to rule over everything had died down along with the body of the living dead.
The world of the living no longer belonged to him. He had chosen to turn around when he had the chance to reclaim his capital. He had chosen to live alone underground.
However, for the living beings born on the battlefield, even if their bodies were dead but their souls were still intact, when the sounds of fighting, the shouts, and the beating of war drums rang out, the surging emotions in their hearts would still be stirred up.
Since the Undead had lost the passion to compete with the living, it was time for the Underworld to have a real king to control the living creatures that had died over the years, yet were unwilling to die and were still roaming around in the human world!
"I know many people are still alive. We need them all to submit to us," Khufu said.
The Underworld had to be unified. Otherwise, they would never be able to compete with the God of Darkness, let alone the Ocean Emperor who was still alive.
The King of Undead did not respond.
Khufu needed more people to worship him and rule over him. The King of Undead already had all these things in the past. He was the King of Undead when he was alive, an unparalleled King of the Underworld. His Magic was so strong that it was almost unheard of. He was the one who invented the Undead Magic. He was the one who created the strongest defense of the Earth Element. The strongest Totem Beasts were still sleeping in his country … what else did he need to conquer?
There was nothing else. The Underworld was no longer attractive to him.
However, Khufu was right about one thing. There was only one king in the Underworld. There should only be one God of the Underworld, too.
He did not want to fight the living, but the Underworld should be unified.
"So, are you going to fight back, or leave?" the King of Undead replied.
Khufu wore a twisted expression. Egypt was one of the best in the world when it came to preserving a corpse. He did not look any different from when he was still alive.
The King of Undead was a little tempted by the ability.
He did not like his face, which was covered in the runes of the living dead. He needed his face to be as lively as when he was still alive. The King of Undead was most interested in Khufu's vitality!
Khufu was so excited that he had the urge to fight back. Once he succeeded, he would defeat the King of Undead. The army of the Underworld would then turn the tide of the Ancient Capital against the undead. However, it would be meaningless if that happened. He would not be able to see the scene he was looking for …
"I'm glad that an old monster like me is still alive. The mysterious East has made my trip worth it," Khufu said.
"So, you've decided to leave?" The King of Undead said coldly. His words were so direct that Khufu almost had the urge to pick up his broken staff and charge at him again.
"There's no need to rush a war. This fertile land full of heroic spirits will eventually belong to me, Khufu!" Khufu said.
The King of Undead stood there with a mocking grin.
He initially thought Khufu was a bold man who would decide the outcome of the battle after a long speech. It turned out that he was only planning to leave!
Khufu summoned the golden boat. He decided to return to the pyramid.
Khufu purposely turned around and glanced at the King of Undead as he was descending.
The truth was, he really wanted to know if his judgment was right. He wanted to know if the King of Undead was still in a weakened state. If the King of Undead decided to fight back, would he have already won the battle?
However, he saw the King of Undead stop recovering as soon as he left.
Khufu's heart skipped a beat.
The cunning old man was indeed trying to bait him. Luckily, he did not fall for it!
Retreating was the right thing to do!
The golden boat continued to descend to the top of the pyramid. The light of the Underworld dimmed slightly after the King of Undead withdrew from the battle. Khufu would never admit that he had taken the initiative to back off. He was trying to convince his people that they would come again!
