Chapter 373: The Incurable Corpse Poison, Secret Realm!
Under the triple attack, countless pieces of flesh were blasted off the BOSS. Lin
This BOSS was clearly a conglomerate of the three races' corpses.
Under attack, its body began to disintegrate.
Roar!
The BOSS let out an inexplicable roar. Lin Moyu heard a monster in the [Corpse Realm] make a sound for the first time.
The sound was low and hoarse, making one feel uncomfortable.
Amidst the roar, the BOSS activated its skill.
It actively blasted out large pieces of rotten flesh, which collided with the skeletal berserkers with great impact.
The skeletal berserkers were all sent flying.
Lin Moyu's eyes narrowed; these pieces of rotten flesh carried extremely potent corpse poison.
Moreover, this corpse poison was highly contagious.
It would spread to other skeletons.
The Lich General used its skill, but it couldn't neutralize the corpse poison.
There was no time to ponder the reason during the battle, so Lin Moyu immediately ordered the skeletons infected with corpse poison to surround the BOSS, while the remaining skeletal berserkers retreated far away.
At least several hundred skeletal berserkers were infected with corpse poison, enough to surround the BOSS.
After all, the skeletal mages and archers on the periphery were continuously attacking.
After activating its skill, the BOSS's size visibly shrank, and its strength also diminished.
Compared to the BOSS in the Ancient Battlefield, this one was only troublesome due to its corpse poison; in other aspects, it was nothing special.
Elemental explosions continued incessantly, booming non-stop.
The BOSS's flesh was blasted away, and its size kept shrinking.
The skeletal berserkers and archers' attacks also never ceased.
In less than a minute, under the intense attack, the BOSS was completely destroyed.
The BOSS wasn't truly dead; it was just destroyed and would likely respawn after some time.
Lin Moyu was already used to it. Since entering the [Corpse Realm], he hadn't truly killed a single monster.
To be precise, he didn't have the ability to kill any monster in the [Corpse Realm].
He could only destroy them.
Lin Moyu didn't understand the reason behind this.
Now, what troubled him were the hundreds of skeletal berserkers infected with corpse poison.
There were a total of 472 of them.
They were continuously taking damage; the BOSS's corpse poison was extremely potent, causing significant damage every second.
If it weren't for the All-Encompassing Connection talent, which allowed all summoned creatures to share the damage, and the Lich General's healing, these skeletal berserkers wouldn't last two minutes.
Dongfang Yao ran back and noticed something was wrong, saying seriously, "Can't the corpse poison be neutralized?"
Lin Moyu shook his head, "The BOSS's corpse poison is too high-level to be neutralized."
"That's troublesome," Dongfang Yao said with a serious expression. "If the corpse poison can't be neutralized, it will persist until the target dies, and it's contagious."
Lin Moyu knew this too; he had tried before.
Because of the corpse poison, he couldn't recall the 472 skeletal berserkers into the summoning space. He also couldn't let other skeletons come into contact with them.
He couldn't even get too close to these skeletons himself.
Although the All-Encompassing Connection prevented these skeletons from dying, it also meant that the rest of the undead army had to share the damage with them.
He finally realized the troublesome nature of the corpse poison; it turned his advantage into a disadvantage.
Dongfang Yao asked worriedly, "What should we do now?"
Lin Moyu took a deep breath, "We'll deal with it later. I'll go into the storm first. Stay away from them."
With that, Lin Moyu spread his Wings of Lightning and shot into the storm clouds.
The skeletal armor was removed, and the Genesis Scepter was in hand.
A large amount of lightning struck him, and the massive damage was quickly transferred to the undead army.
The Lich General continuously healed.
As long as the skeletons didn't die, Lin Moyu wouldn't take any damage.
The storm was vast, and the Genesis Lightning was exceptionally abundant, more than in previous instances.
[Obtained Genesis Lightning, Experience +2,000,000]
[Obtained Genesis Lightning, Experience +2,000,000]
A large amount of lightning struck him, rapidly increasing his experience.
In just half a minute, Lin Moyu's body emitted the light of leveling up.
As he leveled up, the warm current in his body once again broke through its limit and surged into the Genesis Scepter.
The Genesis Scepter shone brightly, and the last crack completely disappeared.
The entire scepter suddenly burst into dazzling light, illuminating the ground.
Amidst the white light, Lin Moyu felt a vast vitality, the breath of life.
[Genesis Scepter (Damaged)]
[Can be repaired with a Life Core to restore the Genesis Scepter.]
The detection skill only provided this information, without specifying what the core looked like or where to find it.
"Still can't use it?"
"What kind of weapon is the Genesis Scepter?" Lin Moyu pondered.
Boom!
Another lightning bolt struck, but this time its target wasn't Lin Moyu but the Genesis Scepter in his hand. The remaining lightning in the storm was almost exhausted.
As the Genesis Scepter was repaired, the remaining lightning all struck it.
The Genesis Scepter grew even brighter, and then waves of spatial fluctuations emanated.
In front of Lin Moyu, a shining door appeared.
"A secret realm!"
Lin Moyu was surprised; he didn't expect the Genesis Scepter to open a secret realm.
The secret realm door was hidden within the storm, invisible from the outside.
As the Wings of Lightning's duration ended, Lin Moyu descended.
At this moment, he was still glowing from leveling up.
Dongfang Yao smiled, "Congratulations on leveling up again."
Lin Moyu responded, "Just lucky."
They had been in the [Corpse Realm] for a month, and leveling up twice in a month wasn't fast.
Thinking of his sister, he wondered what level she had reached by now.
Lin Moyu knew that if he hadn't fallen into the [Corpse Realm] and had been grinding suitable dungeons in the Dungeon Hall, he might have reached level 45 or even higher by now.
Dongfang Yao asked, "What about these skeletons?"
Lin Moyu thought for a moment and said, "I have no choice but to dismiss them."
Without a way to cure the corpse poison, he could only dismiss the skeletons and resummon them.
Lin Moyu hadn't expected that even after obtaining the All-Encompassing Connection talent, he would still have to dismiss his summons one day. He also realized that no talent or skill was perfect; they all had flaws.
With a thought, the 472 skeletal berserkers infected with corpse poison simultaneously disintegrated.
The corpse poison quickly dissipated.
Lin Moyu began summoning skeletons one by one, just in time to replenish the undead army at level 42. The summoning space increased by 30 slots, reaching 660.
The number of Lich Generals also increased to 22, forming 22 undead armies.
Each undead army had 660 skeletons, evenly distributed among the three types, totaling 14,520 skeletons.
The undead army grew stronger once again.
Fortunately, with unlimited mental power, Lin Moyu could summon skeletons very quickly.
In just over half an hour, he had replenished all the skeletons.
After putting away the undead army, Lin Moyu glanced at the storm and sensed that the secret realm door was still there.
"I'll take you somewhere," Lin Moyu said.
Dongfang Yao was puzzled, "Take me somewhere? This is the [Corpse Realm]; where else can we go?"
"Up there."
Before Dongfang Yao could react, Lin Moyu grabbed her hand.
The Wings of Lightning spread out, and the two of them soared into the sky.
Dongfang Yao had experience flying, so she wasn't flustered.
However, being held by Lin Moyu made her blush and feel a bit awkward.
The Wings of Lightning were incredibly fast, and they quickly reached the storm and saw the secret realm door.
Dongfang Yao was astonished, "A secret realm? How can there be a secret realm here?"
Lin Moyu didn't explain and took Dongfang Yao inside.
He briefly considered the potential dangers of the secret realm.
Could it be worse than the [Corpse Realm]?
In the level 60 area, he was still at ease.
What about in higher-level areas?
What if they encountered level 70 or 80 corpses?
Or even... god-level corpses?
Although Lin Moyu was confident, he wasn't arrogant.
Dongfang Yao hadn't mentioned whether there were god-level corpses in the [Corpse Realm], but Lin Moyu deduced that there must be.
Otherwise, the Dongfang family wouldn't be guarding this place.
If there were no god-level corpses, a few god-level experts could easily clear the [Corpse Realm].
While he couldn't kill the corpses, god-level experts surely had a way.
Moreover, the BOSS's corpse poison made Lin Moyu realize that his level was still too low. Despite his strong skills, he was still powerless against high-level corpse poison.
After considering all this, Lin Moyu decided to enter the secret realm.
It couldn't be worse than the [Corpse Realm].
