Necromancer: I Am A Disaster-Chapter 667: So It Was Your Doing All Along!

Lightning roared and fell like a torrential downpour. Even from outside, the entire Demon Extermination Tower flickered with blinding light.

Countless bolts of lightning crashed down upon Lin Moyu.

He neither dodged nor retreated. Feeling absolutely nothing, he charged straight upward.

His Lightning Elemental Immunity rendered the storm meaningless.

Just as he had suspected—if this was all the tower could do, then it was already his.

From the outside, the distance from the base of the tower to its core seemed to be no more than 30 meters. Only those inside understood the truth.

Each floor was an independent space; what appeared short was in fact vast.

Space folded upon itself, stretching every segment hundreds of times over.

Lin Moyu had anticipated this and remained unfazed.

Otherwise, no matter how violent the lightning storm, Ye Hao would never have failed to cross a mere 30 meters.

Among the three great towers, the Trial Tower possessed the strongest control over space, capable of dividing itself into countless spaces like a dungeon.

Next was the Shenxia Tower. Under Meng Anwen’s control, it could not split infinitely, but creating 1,000 independent spaces simultaneously posed no difficulty.

The Demon Extermination Tower was weaker in this regard, yet it still possessed basic spatial manipulation.

A distance that appeared to be 30 meters could easily stretch to 3,000, or even 30,000.

But lightning traveled at extreme speed; distance meant nothing to it.

The same was true for Lin Moyu.

Even if the path extended 300,000 meters, it would only require a bit more time.

Using a lightning storm to stop him was all but impossible.

He continued advancing through the storm. The closer he drew to the core, the denser and more violent the lightning became.

By the halfway point, its power had already reached level 94.

At that intensity, even someone like Ye Hao wouldn’t be able to hold on for long.

The gap between level 94 and level 95 was not insurmountable, unlike the qualitative leap from level 95 to level 96.

The lightning continued to intensify, steadily approaching level 95.

Lin Moyu understood this well. Without a master, the Demon Extermination Tower’s limit was the peak of level 94.

With a master, however, it could unleash attacks at the peak of level 95, brushing against the ceiling of legendary-grade equipment.

Legendary-grade equipment capped at level 95. Some could be promoted to mythical-grade, achieving even greater power.

The Shenxia Tower was a prime example. Meng Anwen was already working toward its promotion, a process both arduous and time-consuming.

The fundamental difference between mythical-grade and legendary-grade lay in law—bearing law, wielding law, and ultimately reaching the point where they themselves possessed law.

The Demon Extermination Tower was the most offensively oriented of the three great towers, yet it remained bound to the limits of the legendary-grade.

No matter how much space extended, it still had an end.

Braving the lightning storm, Lin Moyu reached the edge of the core.

Outside it, lightning roared and surged endlessly, transforming the surroundings into a sea of lightning.

Lin Moyu stood within it, unmoving as a mountain.

He extended his hand toward the core.

Just as his palm was about to make contact, he suddenly stopped. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

A faint smile curved his lips, “No wonder the Demon Extermination Tower hasn’t had a master for hundreds of years. So it was your doing all along.”

At his words, the core shuddered and rapidly retreated.

It was fast, but Lin Moyu was faster.

His palm slammed down, an overwhelming force locking the core in place.

It struggled frantically, yet no matter how it resisted, it could not break free.

“There’s no need to struggle,” Lin Moyu said calmly, “You cannot escape.”

“And I have no intention of harming or erasing you.”

As if understanding his words, the core gradually ceased its resistance and fell quiet.

Lin Moyu’s soul stirred, and his consciousness connected with it.

Fragments of images surged forth—the Demon Extermination Tower’s creation.

Its core was far inferior to that of the Thunderclap Tower, and the records it carried were incomplete, yet it was enough to piece together the process.

The three great towers of the Shenxia Empire had all been forged by the same individual.

In that era, a God-level Blacksmith had arisen within the Shenxia Empire.

Gathering more than two-thirds of the nation’s top-tier materials, and using the Thunderclap Tower as a blueprint, this God-level Blacksmith forged three towers.

Though created by the same person, with the same techniques and the same model, the three towers ultimately ended up vastly different.

Even so, all of them reached the peak of legendary-grade, ensuring that none of the priceless materials had been wasted.

In the years that followed, the three towers played an irreplaceable role.

According to the records, powerhouses once wielded the Demon Extermination Tower, slaughtering great numbers of Demon Kings.

Amid the Demon hordes, they unleashed seas of lightning, leaving the Demons in utter disarray.

Those were both epic and tragic times—an era when the war between the human race and the Demons raged without end.

About 300 ago, the Demon Extermination Tower’s last master fell in battle.

Since then, the tower had remained without a master.

When that God-level powerhouse fell, they left behind a wisp of remnant soul within the tower.

Using this remnant soul with no will, the Demon Extermination Tower gave birth to a faint sentience.

This sentience enhanced the tower’s power. Even without a master, it could unleash level 95 attack power.

However, the same sentience instinctively rejected all outsiders, making the tower exceedingly difficult to claim.

Over the past 300 years, the human race had produced only one Emperor Di. As a half-step Transcendent God-level expert, Emperor Di had no need for legendary-grade equipment.

Thus, he had never sought the Demon Extermination Tower.

Below him, there were no high-tier God-level experts.

Mid-tier and low-tier God-level powerhouses lacked the strength to subdue the tower.

As a result, it remained masterless for nearly three centuries.

No matter how capable Ye Hao was, he could never claim the tower without breaking through to level 96.

That was the case until Lin Moyu appeared.

Lin Moyu’s Lightning Elemental Immunity left the Demon Extermination Tower unable to resist him.

Moreover, his soul rank was sufficiently high, fully meeting the requirements to wield it.

As Lin Moyu grasped the entire situation, he sensed fear and trembling from the tower’s core.

Though this sentience was already 300 years old, it was still like a blank sheet of paper, simple and instinct-driven.

When Lin Moyu’s soul entered the core, he saw a tiny, quivering speck of light.

He immediately recognized it as the tower’s sentience, still frail and immature.

Through his soul, Lin Moyu spoke gently, “Don’t be afraid. I won’t hurt you.”

Within the soul world, Lin Moyu appeared like a towering giant, the Nine-Colored Dragon Soul Crystal coiled around him.

At the sight of the nine-colored Divine Dragon coiled around him, the speck of light froze in terror, afraid it might be swallowed in a single bite.

Lin Moyu conveyed his goodwill, and his soul brand descended upon the core.

At the same time, his soul aura enveloped the speck of light.

The speck of light offered no resistance, naturally accepting his soul brand.

From that moment on, the Demon Extermination Tower belonged to Lin Moyu.

“Claiming the Demon Extermination Tower is far easier than claiming the Thunderclap Tower’s outer tower.” Lin Moyu mused.

He had long ago left a soul brand on the Thunderclap Tower’s outer tower, yet had never truly claimed it.

At present, he could only barely draw upon its lightning element to grow grass.

As for merging with the core of the Thunderclap Tower’s inner tower, that remained a distant goal.

By contrast, the Demon Extermination Tower submitted smoothly. In less than 10 minutes, Lin Moyu had full control.

The Demon Extermination Tower was a special piece of equipment. It was not a weapon and had no attributes, yet it could unleash devastating offensive power, entirely different from conventional equipment.

It could allow Lin Moyu to attack and kill enemies through it.

What intrigued him most, however, was its internal space.

Though the tower appeared only 30 meters tall, its interior could expand up to 30,000 meters and be divided into as many as 100 independent spaces.

Lin Moyu attempted to store the Thunderclap Tower’s outer tower inside.

The Demon Extermination Tower shook violently. The Thunderclap Tower’s outer tower could not be placed inside.

The core trembled, and the speck of light transmitted a message.

It could not contain an object of such a high grade.

After brief reflection, Lin Moyu understood.

The Demon Extermination Tower was only legendary-grade. The Thunderclap Tower’s outer tower far surpassed it. Naturally, it could not be housed within.

Fortunately, Lin Moyu had a solution, though it would be a bit troublesome.

Sending a soothing message to the speck of light, Lin Moyu began his unconventional operation.
