Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge-Chapter 862 - 523: The Demise of the Old Witch_2
Chapter 862: Chapter 523: The Demise of the Old Witch_2
The Fourth Tier Elite Army was in a state of utter misery; the backlash from the pseudo-Seventh Tier power was like a natural disaster that devastated them.
One by one, they were almost crushed by the backlash, their internal organs nearly shredded; their health was reduced to a scant tenth of what it was.
Those lucky enough were seriously injured and temporarily lost the ability to fight.
Those less fortunate were critically injured and on the brink of death, falling into a coma.
On the other hand, the Three-Clawed Blood Dragon was transformed by Zi Liyuan in just a dozen seconds, turning into a Three-Clawed Nether Blood Dragon under his command.
However, although it retained the combat power of a pseudo-Seventh Tier, it was somewhat weaker than the original Three-Clawed Blood Dragon.
There was no helping it; the transformation of the undead consumed potential, especially for those forcibly transformed.
This is why Zi Liyuan, despite using the skill [Rebirth] to resurrect many creatures, none of them had broken through their limits.
Was it because Zi Liyuan did not provide resources?
Not at all; it was because their potential had been significantly reduced, making it extremely difficult to break through their limits.
Currently, among those summoned under Zi Liyuan, very few have genuinely advanced to the Sixth Tier legendary level.
The mechanical being Xiao Guang and the hellish demon puppet Old Iron only managed to level up by binding with Zi Liyuan.
Apart from them, there were only the Nether Dragon Emperor, Orochi, Yuki-onna, and the Spider Queen.
The Nether Dragon Emperor was created using legendary Twilight Dragon bones and various means to produce a legendary summoning creature.
Orochi and Yuki-onna were not revived by Zi Liyuan’s [Rebirth] skill but were forced to sign a servitude-like Boundary Sea Contract.
Their potential was not impaired, and with the vast resources provided by Zi Liyuan, they forcibly regained their peak condition, achieving peak Sixth Tier strength.
However, the gap in strength between these two was significant; Orochi could fight three Yuki-onna.
The Spider Queen was among the first batch of members resurrected by Zi Liyuan’s [Rebirth] skill.
Plus, being inherently a template of a Legendary BOSS and formerly one of the retainers of the spider Evil God Rose, her potential was impressive.
Even using the [Rebirth] skill, which consumed some of her potential, she could potentially recover to the peak of Sixth Tier legendary, as long as sufficient resources were available.
But the rest of the [Rebirth] members, such as the Frost Giant Beast, Golden Behemoth, Cyclops, Ridgeback Tortoise, etc., were all stuck at the peak of Fifth Tier epic, unable to break through their own limits to reach the status of a Sixth Tier legendary.
Now, creating a pseudo-Seventh Tier undead significantly enhanced the combat power of his summoning army.
This entity couldn’t come out too often; normally, it needed to be sent back to the Nether to replenish the consumed Power of Death.
Charging for three hours for a three-minute deployment describes this unreliable undead.
It’s truly powerful, but the timing needs to be controlled well.
For example, right now, just after the transformation was completed, Zi Liyuan controlled the Three-Clawed Nether Blood Dragon and directed a Divine Dragon Tail Swipe at the temporarily disabled formation below.
The massive dragon body twisted, and its huge tail, like a thick whip, lashed out.
People were thrown off their horses, the armies destroyed; the formation was swept away.
Already heavily damaged by the backlash, how could they withstand the Divine Dragon Tail Swipe of a pseudo-Seventh Tier?
Essentially, with that one tail swipe, a third of the Fourth Tier elite directly ascended to the world of Jile.
As for those at Sixth Tier Legendary, they fled immediately after suffering the backlash.
The slightly slower-reacting Fifth Tier Epics managed to escape somewhat, and those who had not escaped were severely damaged once again by the tail swipe.
What followed was a unilateral scene of beating to death.
The powerful Nether Dragon charged at those below who were once its masters, roaring as it went.
Swiping with its claws, biting, flipping over, and tail swiping, the dragon rampaged through the formation, leaving nothing but a bloody mess in its wake, utterly without an equal in combat.
Only a few minutes had passed, yet the battle formation convened by this secret technique had collapsed, resulting in heavy casualties and deaths.
Zi Liyuan casually waved his hand, tearing open a summoning gate.
A large group of Blood Race warriors flew out, and their arrival essentially meant the clean-up work was underway.
Those not yet dead received a stab to finish them off, conveniently allowing for a satisfying sip of potent blood.
Those fully dead were directly stuffed into corpse bags, packed up, and taken away, to be handed off to the specialized corpse logistics department for processing.
A long-held habit of packing corpses naturally paired well with precious artifacts that could loot materials from the bodies.
For Zi Liyuan, such precious artifacts were easily obtainable by simply making a wish to his goddess of luck wife.
Coupled with the nature of the Death Lord, and an even more bloodthirsty Mo Yi, the logistics corpse processing department had become a major feature, and a lucrative spot.

However, this department was presided over by Blood Prince Edward himself.
He was not only the steward of Death Castle but also held positions in several departments.
For the Blood Race, esteemed for their nobility and elegance, they were also highly reliable in their work.
Thus, among the various undead races, they were one of the most relied upon groups by Zi Liyuan.
However, the reliance on the Blood Race was not on the battlefield, but rather in logistics and castle management.
Fan Yuer and others helped Zi Liyuan manage the hinterland cities, relying on the Blood Race under Zi Liyuan’s command to control the core hub, thereby managing the Lords, Wanderers, Mercenaries, and Alien Races that had joined their cause.
Watching the Blood Race work below and the Nether Dragons chasing down those generals, the Power of Death consumed by the Nether Dragons was fully supplied by the Ghost Gate Pass.
Zi Liyuan immediately turned his gaze toward the other two directions where the Three-Clawed Blood Dragons were.
Though he found it odd that after being summoned, these creatures only flaunted around in the air and impacted a few waves outside the concealed Death Domain in the sky, without making any further moves.
But he didn’t ponder much, directly applied the same practice, turned these other two blood dragons into Three-Clawed Nether Blood Dragons, and started slaughtering those soldiers.
Regrettably, Mo Yi was not here, otherwise, he would have noticed something abnormal.
The spirits of those soldiers slain by the Nether Dragons, at the moment of death, were drawn away by a certain force, including the essence blood within their bodies, rapidly seeping into the ground.
These spirits and essence blood were absorbed into a blood formation deep beneath the ground, with the core of the formation located underneath the palace complex in the center of the city.
Indeed, this method was also one of the hidden maneuvers by the old demoness.
Beneath the earth, there was an essence blood refining formation, which helped the old demoness consolidate her early stage power of the Seventh Grade Sanctum.
After all, her breakthrough was gained by seizing the fate of the Wild Boar Skin dynasty, aided by the blood and spirits of a hundred thousand Lord Bosses.
She had forcibly maintained it through external forces; in truth, she could not naturally control the power of a King’s Domain.
She needed to solidify her powers now to prevent over-exhaustion from dropping her rank, turning her back into a Legendary of the Sixth Tier.
Moreover, the central palace complex was also a formation remodeled by the old demoness, where she placed the energy crystal stones sourced from the cores of several tens of satellite city lord’s mansions.
Once slightly modified, this formation transformed into a terrifying self-destruct formation.
The carried destructive power could reach the formidable strike of the early stage of the Seventh Grade Sanctum!
However, the old demoness also understood that this self-destruct formation could only briefly hinder the Death Lord; killing him outright was impossible.
It can be said that the old demoness was consolidating her own rank strength while preparing how to delay Zi Liyuan’s advance, ensuring her escape from Heavenly Phoenix City wouldn’t be pursued further.
Meanwhile, Zi Liyuan was wreaking havoc and massacring garrisoned troops inside Heavenly Phoenix City.
As the main base of the old demoness, there were at least six hundred thousand troops stationed here, not to mention the numerous unwithdrawn elite corps of noble families, making the city hold at least a million soldiers.
