LIGHTNOVELWORLD Chapter 2622 Melting
Chapter 2622 Melting
Fang Heng fused the willpower of the demonic seed, and it roared as it charged toward the will of the Empress once again.
Previously, after repeatedly devouring the Empress' will, his will had been enhanced, achieving a stronger resolve. Now, he had gained an absolute advantage over the Empress' broken will!
The wills of both sides once again clashed in the sea of consciousness, fighting fiercely.
[Hint: The player has eliminated the shattered remnants of the Empress Persephone's will. The player gains high-tier holy spirit crystal*18.]
In just over ten minutes, the Empress' will was completely destroyed. Fang Heng began absorbing the vast amounts of energy carried by the Empress' will.
[Hint: The player absorbs the energy of the shattered remnants of the Empress' will. The player gains God of the Underworld bloodline experience points +1,880,000...]
[Hint: The player's commander-level God of the Underworld bloodline has risen to Level 50.]
[Hint: The player's current character level is Level 50. The player's God of the Underworld bloodline level cannot exceed Level 50. Please complete the advancement mission to level up.]
It hit a bottleneck!
Black mist once again spilled from Fang Heng's body.
Quickly, he pulled a holy spirit crystal from his backpack.
As far as he knew, the holy spirit crystal only had two levels: normal tier and high-tier.
Normal holy spirit crystals dropped after defeating creatures of the death knight level, while high-tier ones were only obtained after eradicating the Empress' broken will, granting between 18-25 crystals.
He immediately used them to level up!
[Hint: The player uses holy spirit crystal*16 to exchange for Tier 2 rainbow crystal*8,000.]
[Hint: The player uses high-tier holy spirit crystal*2 to exchange for Tier 2 rainbow crystal*20,000.]
[Hint: The player has met the requirements for level advancement.]
"Level up!"
Fang Heng silently chanted in his heart.
There were still plenty of high-tier holy spirit crystals left, so Fang Heng decided to upgrade all at once, raising his level limit first!
He needed to increase his God of the Underworld bloodline to the required level.
[Hint: The player's current level has increased to Level 51. Due to the player's talent skill, the player gains an additional 16,779 zombie clones.]
[Hint: The player's Level 52 upgrade requirements: Tier 2 rainbow crystal*100,000.]
Continue! Level up!
In an instant, a flash of white light surrounded Fang Heng's body, and numerous dense magic arrays appeared beneath his feet!
A large number of zombie clones crawled out from the magic arrays!
Seeing this, Kotal's face showed a hint of surprise.
What was going on?
Had something unusual happened when absorbing the shattered will of the Empress?
Kotal quickly leaped backward.
Meanwhile, Carlton, who was using Underworld Fire to deal with the Ice Witches, also turned his gaze towards Fang Heng, puzzled.
Zombie creatures?
What was Fang Heng planning to summon them for?
Under the bitter cold effect of the underground cavern's icy environment, the zombie creatures that had just crawled out of the magic arrays were quickly covered with a thick layer of ice crystals and became frozen, unable to move.
The zombie clones' HP rapidly dropped.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!!"
The completely frozen zombie clones exploded one by one as the ice crystals shattered, dying instantly.
Fang Heng didn't mind at all.
If they died, they died. They could be revived.
He just needed to continue leveling up!
Once his level was up, his God of the Underworld bloodline would level up as well.
[Hint: The player has reached the Level 52 conditions. Would you like to...]
"Level up!"
Fang Heng's retina flashed with game hints, and more and more magic arrays began to materialize around him.
The zombie clones that crawled out from the magic arrays in the underground region quickly condensed into ice crystals under the extreme cold effect, only to explode and die.
This cycle continued.
Eventually, Fang Heng's level reached Level 59.
[Hint: The player's current level has increased to Level 59. Due to the player's talent skill, the player gains an additional 72,147 zombie clones.]
He stopped.
The God of the Underworld bloodline level surged rapidly, quickly reaching Level 57.
Fortunately, the Empress' power hadn't been wasted.
It was still a bit off from his earlier expectations.
Originally, Fang Heng had hoped to take this opportunity to max out his God of the Underworld bloodline.
But it seemed that would not be the case.
The strength of each of the Empress' shattered wills varied, and it so happened that the will currently residing here was not very strong.
Fang Heng estimated that if he absorbed one more broken piece of the Empress' will, he would reach the maximum level.
Seeing Fang Heng open his eyes, Kotal and the others all turned their gazes towards him with curious expressions.
"It's nothing, just made some breakthroughs and was familiarizing myself with the skills," Fang Heng explained and then looked at Carlton.
"What's going on? Why did you stop?"
Carlton, who had dealt with the last two Ice Witches, stopped and glanced at Fang Heng, saying something softly.
Kotal translated: "Fang Heng, Carlton has already broken through the outer layer of the ice soul. He will continue to destroy the inner layers, and there's a chance that he could trigger the seal that's hidden inside. He suggests that we leave now. If we insist on staying, we must be extremely cautious. If something goes wrong, it could be catastrophic, and we'll need to be ready to escape at a moment's notice."
Kotal then turned to Carlton and asked, "Should we contact Commander Tigranth?"
Carlton shook his head, standing aside, and continued using his Underworld Fire sword to melt the outer layer of the ice soul.
At that moment, Fang Heng approached and stood before the ice soul.
As the outer layers of the ice soul were progressively melted, he could now clearly see what was hidden—or sealed—inside it.
This was a critical moment, and Fang Heng wasn't planning on leaving.
As for the undead council, they had also made a new discovery the night before.
According to the undead council, who had been working diligently over the past few days to gather and translate information regarding the Empress and the ice soul, they discovered that what Empress Persephone had left behind here was likely a special inheritance.
This event actually occurred during the early period of the Empress' establishment of her Empire, when the Disaster had not yet appeared in the death realm.
Later on, Empress Persephone issued an order within the Empire, forbidding anyone from approaching the Frozen Valley region.
Fang Heng grew increasingly curious about this.
What exactly had the Empress sealed here?
If it was truly an inheritance, why was it prohibited for others to approach?
While he was pondering, Fang Heng's eyelids suddenly twitched.
"Bang!!"
With a muffled hammering sound, Carlton struck the ice soul with his Underworld Fire sword.
The ice soul suddenly cracked open, and a large chunk of ice flew out to the right!
Through the huge gap, Fang Heng clearly saw what was sealed inside the ice soul!
What?!
It was a human!
Or rather, a hand.
It was impossible to tell whether it belonged to a human or a Dark Clan member.
Carlton furrowed his brow, sensing a powerful cold aura leaking from the gap in the ice soul!
At the same time, a strong and chilling wave of power rippled from the opening!
Realizing something was wrong, Carlton quickly stepped back.
Kotal, also watching the hand sealed within the cold aura, stared intently.
"He's from the Dark Clan," Kotal said in a grave voice, observing from a distance. "The handprint on a Dark Clan member's hand is different from that of a human. And I can confirm—he's still alive!"
