Chapter 404 Multiple Fusion Domains, the Ancient King's Surprise
Chapter 404 Multiple Fusion Domains, the Ancient King's Surprise
With the Ancient King's command, the ghosts he created surged toward Jiang Han like a tidal wave. Faced with this level of ghost tide, even a super-level mage would be swallowed up without a trace in an instant. As for forbidden spell mages, they might be able to hold out a little longer, but they still could not escape death.
Although Xue Ling's elemental soul body is in its adult form, it can only exert the combat power of a Supreme Monarch at its peak. Therefore, it is still very troublesome to face the surging ghost tide. Any ghost that gets within a hundred meters of her will be torn apart by the cold wind.
However, a few monarch-level ghosts managed to break through the blockade of the cold wind and approach Xue Ling and Jiang Han, but what greeted them was Jiang Han's sword energy containing spatial power.
The silvery-white sword energy easily shredded their souls; neither the commander-level nor the monarch-level ghosts could withstand this sword energy.
There were too many ghosts gathering in the space. Gradually, the sword energy that Jiang Han swung was no longer able to kill all the ghosts that broke through the cold wind. Some ghosts began to rush towards Jiang Han and Xue Ling, trying to devour their souls.
However, when they were about to touch Jiang Han, these ghosts became agitated and restless. Then, the blood-black mist around Jiang Han began to surge, and eventually, the blood-black mist transformed into a blood-black dragon thousands of meters long.
It looks somewhat like a Nether Flood Dragon, but it is filled with a murderous aura and its strength far exceeds the limits of an adult Nether Flood Dragon.
For these ghosts who are only minor or mid-level monarchs, the Blood Ink Dragon, a supreme monarch-level being, is a one-sided massacre.
"It would be a waste to kill all these high-level ghosts. Let them all become my servants." With that, Jiang Han plunged the Dragon Bone Sword into the ground, and the gray Abyss of Fiends immediately changed.
The previously normal Abyss of Fiends suddenly became shrouded in dark clouds, with grayish-purple lightning churning within them. The altar beneath Jiang Han's feet was covered in spiderweb-like cracks, from which scorching black flames erupted.
Besides flames and thunder, there were also spatial storms and biting ice and snow, completely changing the appearance of the entire Sha Yuan space.
This is the true 'Purgatory of the Dead,' no, to be more precise, it is the 'Infernal Purgatory'!
A true "infernal hell"!!
When fighting the giant lizard pseudo-dragon in Jinlin Wasteland, the 'Undead Purgatory' he used had less than one ten-thousandth the power of 'Boundless Purgatory'. In addition, 'Undead Purgatory' could not perfectly match the power provided by Xue Ling.
The combination of these two factors led to his prolonged battle with the commander-level giant lizard pseudo-dragon. He realized this after using the Soul Amplification Potion, wondering why he was so weak when using the Demon type.
As a high-level mage, he used the demonic arts and couldn't even defeat a commander-level giant lizard pseudo-dragon in a short time.
The root cause is the conflict and consumption of 'Undead Purgatory' and elemental power. If there were no conflict and consumption, he was confident that he could take down the giant lizard pseudo-dragon in half an hour. As for now, a wisp of fire on the ground would burn it to ashes.
"You have perfectly blended the magical powers of various schools. Your magical skills are truly remarkable."
The ancient king gazed at the transformed Abyss of Fiends. He had built the Abyss of Fiends using the power of space, chaos, earth, and necromancy, but the newcomer opposite him had perfectly fused these six—no, to be precise, the magic—into this domain.
In addition to the necromancy and space-related elements he was familiar with, the domain also contained lightning, fire, ice, dimensional summoning, and some kind of evil power. If this domain could be fully manifested, its power would be several times stronger than his Abyss of Evil.
What the Ancient King didn't know was that Jiang Han's ability to use "Infernal Purgatory" this time was entirely due to luck. If he didn't have enough points, he would have had to use the incomplete version of "Undead Purgatory," and the use of "Undead Purgatory" also placed extremely high demands on the soul.
As for whether Jiang Han will be able to use "Infernal Purgatory" again next time, even Jiang Han himself is not sure.
Ultimately, it all comes down to points. Once you have enough system points, you can escape from not only monarch-level demons, but even emperor-level demons. As for crippling them, that's still too far-fetched for Jiang Han.
After the Abyss of Fiends was shrouded in the 'Infernal Purgatory,' the ghosts within it halted their advance, and a blood-black mist began to rise. Before long, the soul fire flickering in the ghosts' eye sockets turned a ghostly blue, and the Ancient King lost control over them.
"Erosion, transformation—this evil power is not easy to control, is it, newcomer?" The Ancient King calmly looked at Jiang Han, who had plunged the Dragon Bone Sword into the ground, and said.
Facing the ghosts who had rebelled against him, the ancient king seemed to have a hint of relief in his eyes, but he showed no fear of death.
He has no fear of death, not before, not now, and not in the future, for he is the emperor of Qin, the ancient king of this land!
"Come on, let me see what other tricks you have up your sleeve!" The ancient king's Yin energy continued to compress, making the sword in his hand become more and more solid, and the two characters "Lu Lu" could be vaguely seen.
"Alright!" Jiang Han pulled the dragon bone sword out of the ground and gently brushed the blade with his hand, which had sharp claws.
All the powers from the "Infernal Purgatory" surged into the Dragon Bone Sword: the speed of space, the fury of thunder, the heat of flames, the cold of ice and snow, the malevolence of the undead, the agility of summoning, and the ferocity of demons.
All seven powers were integrated into the Dragon Bone Sword, allowing Jiang Han's sword strike to reach its peak. Ordinary monarch-level demons could not even withstand a trace of sword energy overflowing from it. However, Jiang Han did not strike with his sword. Instead, he looked at Xue Ling beside him.
Xue Ling smiled and then turned into blue light and disappeared. Countless blue lights gathered above Jiang Han's head to form an ice-blue crown.
The crown has seven crystals, the one in the center being ice blue, and the ones on either side being blood ink, purple, red, moon white, silver white, and grayish white. These seven crystals represent Jiang Han's seven magic systems.
The icy blue crown tied Jiang Han's silver hair back. If Jiang Han were to debut now, he would definitely be a top-tier heartthrob. Unfortunately, in the Sha Yuan Space, apart from the Ancient King, no one else appreciates him.
This was only the surface appearance, but in the eyes of the ancient king, it was a completely different story, with surging elemental power constantly gushing out from his body.
"This newcomer might become the first human to step into that illusory realm." Looking at Jiang Han, who was holding the Dragon Bone Sword and whose body was filled with surging elemental power, the Ancient King was filled with emotion.
That realm was too illusory; he had only heard of it from distant legends. However, Qiongqi never reached it in his entire life. If he had, perhaps the human world today would be a completely different place.
