The Rise of the Cemetery

Chapter 0185 Mysterious altar

It is the mage's nature to follow the trail. Such a huge plane is not inferior to the plane where Klein Continent is located. What caused all the creatures in it to become extinct? This is probably what every mage who comes here will try to find.

The natives of the undead plane are all transformed from the life of the original plane after the death of the plane, the loss of life breath. They are still reincarnating with difficulty in this plane that is gradually dying, and they will lose a part every time they are transferred. Therefore, each soul is seriously missing, and it is difficult to get the information you want from them.

In contrast, these relics and antiques that survived from ancient times are better able to preserve some ancient information.

At least the strong breath of death here is more likely to attract the occupation of some strong people, and the strong will always consciously create a comfortable place for themselves to expel those low-level undead, especially the ruins destroyers-zombies.

Zombies often absorb the ubiquitous negative energy in the air without moving. thing.

Walking into this well-preserved temple of the undead, this must be the main temple of the temple group back then. From the mottled gray shadows on the stone wall, some scenes of sacrifices and some scenes of celebrations can be barely discerned. Unfortunately, the shapes of the characters are too severely damaged, and it is impossible to infer the appearance characteristics and clothing customs of the creatures back then.

Walking slowly along the murals, Li Xun is very unfamiliar with these similar religious ceremonies. Maybe find an expert in the church and maybe find more information from here! It's a pity that this is the world of the undead, and it's the back garden that I intend to use as a forbidden area. If there are religious experts who really set foot here, there will be no chance of leaving.

It can be seen that the necromancers have done a good job in the management of this place. There are various magic circles carved on the floor and stone walls, especially the gathering spirits. An ancient altar is enshrined in the deepest part of the temple, which is probably the place where the former believers of the god of death held living sacrifices and worshiped the gods.

"Why do you still keep it?" Li Xun asked the necromancer strangely: "Shouldn't such a good thing be dismantled long ago to separate the special materials inside?"

"It's still useful, it can produce undead with potential!" The necromancer was silent for a moment, and finally told the truth.

Li Xun's heart trembled suddenly, and he asked anxiously with a strange expression: "Is this altar still functional?"

"Yes, it is a living sacrifice. A large number of low-level undead are thrown in, and some mutated special undead will appear randomly."

Li Xun was silent.

This necromancer has no knowledge, but it doesn't mean he is the same. For a plane that has declined, the breath must pass and the laws are missing. Those gods who are attached to the power of the rules will be the first to die. This is the inevitable development of the laws of the plane.

As the saying goes, when the sky falls, a tall one will hold it up. Although this is a common saying, it is also a wise saying. Interpreted in reverse, that is, if the sky falls, the taller ones must be killed first.

A complete plane must have strict rules, strict rules, and dense atmosphere. Once this barrier is broken for some reason, the direct consequence is that the internal cycle of reincarnation is out of order, causing the Qi machine to flow out, the creatures become extinct, and eventually disintegrate.

But this process is slow and long, it may be hundreds of thousands of years, it may be millions of years, so in this process of death, the internal changes are gradual, but no matter what is different, the gods will be the first to fall. down. They are too closely integrated with the world, and any change in the laws will make the gods the first stones to be crushed.

The gods are gone, so what are these ancient altars based on to respond to believers?

Creatures on this plane have been extinct for hundreds of thousands of years, turning this place into a paradise for the undead. Are there still gods left? Could it be because of the special nature of the god of death that he survived the passing of the rules? Or are some powerful undead kings exercising authority in place of the god of death?

The mage's nature caused Li Xun to enter the research mode as soon as he heard this kind of thing that did not conform to the rules of the plane. He walked around the altar more than a dozen times, repeatedly asking about the detailed process of the necromancer's sacrifice.

Tired of being asked, the necromancer casually summoned 100 skeletons and ordered them to walk up to the altar. The altar doesn't look big, but as the skeleton steps up, there is an inexplicable feeling that it is not full. The necromancer knelt down in front of the altar, silently chanting prayers in praise of the God of Death. With the raising of his hands, the altar produced a strange suction force. These skeletons continued to shrink and were slowly pulled into the middle of the altar. Among the four walls of the base, the above pattern has been replaced and a new wall image has become.

When the necromancer's praises became louder and louder, a wall statue on the front of the base of the statue in the middle of the altar moved, and broke free from it. As it broke away from the stone wall, its body continued to expand, and finally a three-finger-sized The wall statue has become a tall skeleton nearly 2 meters high.

Weird, eerie, impermanent.

This is the experience Li Xun had after witnessing the whole process.

Li Xun has seen many living sacrifices. The formation of each sea of ​​bones is, in the final analysis, a large-scale living sacrifice ceremony, but it is completely different from what I saw today, but Li Xun can't tell where the difference is. The more I look at it, the more chilling I feel, as if I am singing and dancing in front of a ferocious beast's lair, begging for protection.

Suddenly, Li Xun's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he understood why he felt wrong.

The total amount of souls is wrong!

If 1 skeleton and 1 soul unit is counted, 100 skeletons are 100 units, but after the transformation of the altar, the resulting skeleton is 17 units more, that is to say, 83 units of soul energy are damaged, or "rebates" "Are.

Li Xun smiled, and immediately ordered the necromancer to sacrifice again. So there are 100 skeletons again. Under the same sacrifice, there are 36 new skeleton soul units that appear this time.

But this is not what Li Xun cares about. He has been fully operating his soul vision, and he wants to see where the damaged soul energy has gone.

At the most critical moment of the sacrificial ceremony, Li Xun was able to clearly "see" through his soul vision a small space black hole appeared in a mysterious space within the body of the altar statue, sucking away all the energy with a sweeping force, and on the eve of closing it again Spit out some, attached to a sacrificial skeleton, and released it out of this mysterious space.

"I believe!" Li Xun muttered to himself in a low voice.

It's really unexpected, it's actually a channel for the gods to harvest faith. The group of mages has also gone through thousands of years of research on religion, and they have studied some of the basic links extremely thoroughly, but they are still looking at the flowers in the fog when it comes to some core content. The temple is an important place for the gods to collect beliefs, and the channel is the channel for the gods to harvest beliefs. This is also the unique method of the gods and cannot be imitated.

A plane that has been dead for more than 100,000 years still has gods alive. I can see such incredible things. Is it luck or misfortune?

Of course it's my own luck, and that god's misfortune. Sooner or later, I will have to face the gods of the Klein Continent. It is better to have such a weak god to practice than to go up and fight against the God of Morning Light. Li Xun was meditating quietly, a smug smile could not help showing from the corner of his mouth.

The value of the undead world is getting bigger and bigger.

Without saying anything, Li Xun issued a strict order, and the Temple of the Undead became a restricted area. If it wasn't for the altar, he couldn't move it at all. He planned to take this thing to the sleeping place for further research. The necromancer had to return with him, and here he could only be handed over to the Ice Demon for the time being. For safety, Li Xun also left behind 5 chaotic lords, 5 death-controlling witch kings, 5 dark knights and 3000 skeleton zombies.

Leaving the task of leading the team back to the Skeleton King, Li Xun took the Necromancer, Younv, Auror, and the Demon Wizard back to the sleeping place in a bat demon. In order to prevent changes, the ghost dragon and bone dragon did not accompany them, completely isolating the necromancer and his subordinates.

Two days later, the first thing he did when he returned to the Land of Sleep, the necromancer drank the soul guide blood wine in the tavern, and successfully became the highest-level foreign hero under Li Xun.

Level 15! One more step and you will be able to step into the ranks of the archmage and become a heavyweight figure. Such a guy can also be hired as a subordinate, and it is only possible in the undead world. Otherwise, if he switches to Klein Continent, he will have established his foundation long ago, and he will become the grass-headed overlord. How could he be captured so easily.

This level 15 necromancer has a serious lack of soul, average strength, and lack of equipment. It can be regarded as a miserable mess. But once these problems are in Li Xun's hands, it will not be a problem. Isn't the soul missing? Make up, use soul crystals to make up. Isn't there a lack of equipment? Made with soul crystals, and all of them are equipped with soul weapons that perfectly match themselves.

But you can't just indulge it like this, everything needs to follow the rules you make. Everything you want is available, but if you want to get it, then exchange it with merit points! Where does meritorious service come from? Let's fight for the Land of Sleep! Everything, you have to work hard, fight, and fight for yourself.

After signing the blood contract, that is to say, he is his own person, and the necromancer can freely enter and exit any place. Even if it wants to go back to its previous life, Li Xun has nothing to do. It’s just seeing the magic of the sea of ​​bones, seeing the power of the cemetery’s troops, and seeing the many spells and materials in the mage’s tower, especially the many “artifacts” in the market, making it unwilling to go back to eating tree roots before The primordial life of drinking dew is gone.

"Here, even the breath of death is sweeter than before!" said the necromancer.

It feels right though. It's also the breath of death. The breath of death from the Sea of ​​Bones and bred in Klein Continent is slightly different from the plane of the undead.
