Chapter 264 - 110: Necromancer 3
Chen Yu’s figure appeared on an island in the deep sea.
It was about the same size as the island in the Ninth Abyss.
In the center of the island stood a volcano, spewing thick black smoke.
It looked ready to erupt at any moment.
WHOOSH—!
With a single step, Chen Yu arrived before the volcano at the island’s center.
Not far from him, a Space-Time Gate had appeared.
Purple light swirled within it, like an abyssal vortex!
This was the Tenth Abyss.
Chen Yu approached the entrance to the Abyss of Space-Time. A powerful suction pulled at him, and moments later, his body was drawn into the Abyss.
After a brief moment of dizziness, Chen Yu’s figure materialized in a vast mountain range.
Towering mountains with majestic peaks stood tall, piercing the clouds!
The sky was shrouded in a vast white mist, and visibility was extremely low.
Even with his powerful vision, he could only see for about a thousand meters.
A thick fog permeated the surroundings, as if he had entered a world of mist.
Within the white mist, a faint purple glow was visible to the naked eye.
The cosmic radiation here had reached a level where it was physically visible.
The intense radiation was everywhere, creating a burning sensation.
However, it had little effect on him. Even if the radiation were a hundred times stronger, it still wouldn’t bother him.
"Hm?"
’I can’t sense anything...’
He tried to scan the area with his Force Field sense, but he quickly discovered a problem.
His Force Field sense didn’t work here. It seemed some powerful law was suppressing it.
’Looks like I’ll have to be more careful...’
Without his Force Field sense, he couldn’t perceive distant conditions and could only rely on his eyes.
Although he could see clearly within a thousand meters, this range was a far cry from what his Force Field sense could achieve.
WHOOSH—
Surrounded by his divine Force Field, Chen Yu vanished like a wisp of green smoke.
In the blink of an eye, he had already rushed out of the mountains.
Crossing forests and cliffs, Chen Yu scanned his surroundings as he advanced.
It was quiet. There were no roars from any beasts.
There weren’t even any mosquitoes. This place was like a land devoid of life.
It was terrifyingly silent!
After crossing several hundred kilometers, Chen Yu’s figure appeared in a stretch of wilderness.
A light mist covered the wilderness.
Compared to the fog in the mountains and forests, the mist in the wilderness was much thinner.
He could see farther as well.
To travel for hundreds of kilometers without spotting a single beast was truly a rare occurrence.
Forget beasts; there wasn’t even any ordinary life to be found.
However, Chen Yu was used to this. A similar situation had occurred in the mysterious other half of the Ninth Abyss.
It was difficult to find a living creature even within a thousand kilometers!
Gazing into the distance, Chen Yu’s figure flickered and shot away at an incredible speed.
...
In the vast white sky, Chen Yu’s figure was hidden within the mist.
He looked down upon the wilderness, maintaining a relatively steady speed as he moved forward.
’Are there really no beasts? Or have they all been cleared out?’
An hour or two had passed, but Chen Yu still had nothing to show for it.
He hadn’t encountered a single beast, or even seen a single living thing.
It seemed as though he was the only living being in this Abyss World.
There wasn’t the slightest sound or movement.
It was abnormally, unnervingly strange!
"Hm?"
’Someone’s here!’
Chen Yu suddenly stopped, his gaze falling upon the wilderness below.
A figure had appeared in his line of sight.
He was tearing across the wilderness as if some monster was chasing him.
Chen Yu’s gaze swept over, and behind the fleeing youth, a mass of purple light appeared.
It was a purple orb of light, about the size of a person.
A peculiar ripple emanated from it.
’Is that... a ghost?!’
Focusing on the purple orb, Chen Yu could faintly make out countless ferocious, ethereal figures intertwined within it.
This purple orb was clearly a congregation of numerous purple ghosts.
It was only from a distance that it looked like a simple orb of light.
And as the purple orb appeared, vast swaths of purple light emerged throughout the wasteland.
Within the light, purple ghosts, like a plague of locusts, chased after the fleeing youth.
Vast patches of purple light—it was impossible to tell how many ghosts there were!
The scene was truly shocking, a powerful visual spectacle!
The massive swarm of purple ghosts behind him blotted out the sky!
This was the first creature Chen Yu had encountered.
’These ghosts... I wonder if they have any Source of Life...’
Chen Yu stroked his chin, watching them.
Ghostly creatures.
’They still count as creatures...’
’And the Lord of the Undead is their perfect counter!’
SWISH—!
With a flash of ghostly light, Chen Yu vanished from the sky. The next second, he appeared in the wilderness.
Not far away, a young man was sprinting wildly, his face pale.
When he saw Chen Yu up ahead, the young man faltered for a second, then his face immediately lit up with joy.
"Friend, help—Quick, run!"
He glanced back at the overwhelming tide of purple ghosts sweeping toward them, his scalp tingling with fear, and the words tumbled out of his mouth instinctively.
"No need to rush. They’re just some ghostly creatures."
The calm voice reached the young man’s ears as Chen Yu instantly vanished from his spot.
HUMMM—!
With a light raise of his hand, the Undead Flame appeared.
HISS!!
"AHHHHHHH!!!"
The Undead Flame enveloped the purple orb of ghosts, and agonized screams rang out.
In an instant, burned by the Undead Flame, this cluster of purple ghosts was incinerated, disappearing completely.
’Looks like it does increase.’
Seeing his Source of Life rise, Chen Yu broke into a smile. As he looked at the swarm of ghostly creatures blotting out the sky, his smile grew even wider!
VMMMM—!!!
Purple flames erupted from his eyes and swiftly engulfed his entire body. In an instant, Chen Yu had activated his Undead Form.
