Otherworldly Skeleton Evolution

Chapter 35 - Book of the Undead



“An ancient book?” Jiang Cheng glanced at the black scripture in Natalie’s hands.

The book had a black antique cover with gold edges and looked very valuable.

Natalie squeezed out a faint smile. “This is the book of the undead, Necronomicon. It is capable of resurrecting the dead and turning them into loyal Skeleton servants to fight for you. So, are you interested?”

“You mean… any creature, as long as it’s dead, can be resurrected into a Skeleton?”

Jiang Cheng’s heart stirred slightly.

If it really had such a miraculous effect, then this Necronomicon was truly heaven-defying.

In the future, after he kills a Boss, could he also resurrect the Boss into a Skeleton to fight for him?

If… the resurrected Skeletons could still evolve…

“Not quite. The Necronomicon can only resurrect creatures with skeletal structures. If there are no bones, it cannot be resurrected.”

Natalie interrupted Jiang Cheng’s imagination and kindly reminded him.

“That’s still not bad.” Jiang Cheng felt this deal was worth it.

Although very few people mastered all Fourteen Divine Techniques, there were still many who had grasped one or two.

If he didn’t trade now, and let Natalie meet other players in the future, they… might not necessarily have his kind of willpower.

“You want me to teach you?”

Natalie nodded solemnly.

“As a supreme necromancer, what use do you have for learning this?” Jiang Cheng was slightly curious.

“To exact revenge on my enemies.” Natalie didn’t hide it and directly stated her purpose.

Jiang Cheng could see that Natalie was very sincere. He wasn’t the kind of person who liked to pry into others’ privacy, so he didn’t ask more.

“Deal.”

Next, Jiang Cheng taught Natalie one of the Fourteen Divine Techniques, Momentum Flash Strike, in the temple.

However… although he taught it, Natalie wouldn’t be able to use it anytime soon. It required long-term practice to truly master.

Moreover, Natalie might not necessarily be able to use it.

If anyone could use it, it wouldn’t be called a Divine Technique.

“Can you tell me where this magic originates from?”

After truly understanding the terrifying aspects of this Divine Technique, Natalie became even more curious about Jiang Cheng’s identity.

Momentum Flash Strike, taking the initiative.

When facing an attacking enemy, taking the initiative and using the enemy’s momentum to dodge?

This… if the force control isn’t good, how is it different from suicide?

The person who could have this idea must either be a devil or a madman!

After dodging and retreating, leaving the opponent’s attack range in an instant, and then attacking?

The person who created such an ultimate technique, how shockingly talented must they be?

How big of a nerve must they have to do something so crazy?

“I created it myself,” Jiang Cheng answered calmly.

“You… you created it yourself?” Natalie showed an expression of disbelief, her heart unable to calm down for a long time.

“Could this person have been a lord who traversed the world in his previous life?”

Natalie became more and more curious about Jiang Cheng, and her heart was extremely shaken.

Having attained the highest position of supreme necromancer over a millennium, she had seen many geniuses. If this ultimate technique was truly created by Jiang Cheng, then Jiang Cheng was definitely the most monstrous genius she had ever seen!

“I once observed the essence of Tai Chi and comprehended the mystery of using the opponent’s force from it. I spent a full three months constantly practicing, honing, and experimenting, applying it to ga… combat.”

Jiang Cheng recalled those days with some sentimentality.

The Fourteen Divine Techniques in the game world — Dragon’s Descent, Half-step Realm, Shadow Blade Flash, Momentum Flash Strike, Eight Forces Shock, and so on.

Back then, each one he created was an unforgettable memory.

But now… he had become a Skeleton…

With his current strength, there were a few Divine Techniques he couldn’t use yet.

Only by constantly evolving could he possibly return to the peak again.

“The essence of Tai Chi?”

Natalie showed a suspicious look on her face but didn’t ask more. Instead, she handed over the book in her hand.

“As agreed, I will now formally pass this Necronomicon to you.”

“Good.” Jiang Cheng took the Necronomicon, his heart moved. “It seems… I’m going to have a sea of Skeletons.”

If… they could still evolve, combined with Undead Fusion Art learned by A Silly Cutie…

“How… long will she roughly need?”

Natalie stopped her actions. “About three days. Don’t worry, I will definitely help train your girlfriend into a powerful Necromancer.”

“Then I’ll leave first and come back in three days.” Jiang Cheng said goodbye to Natalie.

Afterward, he left the Temple of the Dead, preparing to find an Elite monster to test the Necronomicon.

“To be able to appear so calm in front of me, not intimidated by my aura in the slightest, heh, truly a mysterious undead.” Natalie took a deep look at Jiang Cheng.
