Could this be the Corpse Poison?
Would I become a zombie like the rest of the people after being inflicted with this?
Yang Ling’s heart shook when he saw the wound on his left shoulder! The muscle near the wound had started rotting in the blink of an eye. Other than the black-colored blood, yellow pus was also oozing out of the wound. The symptoms were the same as how the troops and adventurers were like before they turned into zombies!
Not good, I have to end the battle as soon as possible!
Looking at the worsening wound, Yang Ling knew that he had to finish off the terrifying Corpse Wizard King as soon as possible, then return to Wissen Castle and search for a way to dispel the Corpse Poison. At the same time, he had to be careful to hide this from the Church that were massacring the infected under the name of purification so as to not attract unnecessary trouble.
In order to lure the Corpse Wizard King into the trap, Yang Ling retreated quickly while holding the Blood Elf Dagger, charging straight toward the Imprisonment Space at the entrance of the divine temple. Yang Ling was confident that he would be able to severely injure the Corpse Wizard King as long as it stepped into the Imprisonment Space.
Indeed, seeing Yang Ling retreat quickly, the Corpse Wizard King engaged in a hot pursuit.
“Hmph, a sage level assassin merely has this level of ability!”
After landing the attack on Yang Ling’s left shoulder with its sharp talons, looking at the black-colored blood and pus seeping out of his wound, the Corpse Wizard King was elated as it engaged in a hot pursuit, disregarding the Church’s knights and Spellcasters just beside it.
The threat a sage level assassin posed was far greater than a sage level warrior or Spellcaster. In fact, a sage level assassin might be even more dangerous than the White-robed Cardinal Bishop who was a Domain Expert. If it did not kill Yang Ling, it would not be able to have peace of mind as it consumed the blood and souls of the crowd, not could he focus his efforts in battling the White-robed Cardinal Bishop, gold cloaked warrior Casia and Elder Klive.
Furthermore, Yang Ling had already been inflicted with the Corpse Poison and should be spending most of his energy on suppressing the poison at this moment. It was the best opportunity for it to kill him. It would be even better if it could inflict a few more wounds on Yang Ling’s body and quickly turn him into its zombie guard!
Having a sage level assassin as its zombie guard would ensure its safety for the time being even if it was unable to regain its abilities!
“Hehehe, let’s see where you you can run off to now?”
The Corpse Wizard King was elated when it saw Yang Ling getting slower and slower, thinking that the Corpse Poison had taken effect. It once again increased its speed as it charged forward. A green glow flickered around its sharp talons. Its body is covered in black gas, making it look extremely eerie.
Just as the Corpse Wizard King was about to attack, prepared to leave a few more wounds on Yang Ling’s body, the surroundings suddenly changed. It arrived at a vast forest. Even more strangely, its body became heavy. It found it hard to even breathe, much less walk.
“Wind Riding Technique!”
After recovering from its shock, the Corpse Wizard King quickly cast the Wind Riding Technique on itself. It had wanted to quickly scout its surroundings. Unexpectedly, the Wind Riding Technique did not have any effect, it still found it hard to move!
Domain Space?
Could a top-notch Domain Expert have come?
Looking at the vast forest, feeling the obscure energy ripples in the sky, the Corpse Wizard King had a thought, its expression getting grave.
As a top-notch Corpse Wizard, it would not have thought too highly of a top-notch Domain Expert if it was at its prime. Unfortunately, it had only recovered twenty to thirty percent of its abilities. It could still deal with the White-robed Cardinal Bishop who had just broken through to the level of Domain Expert; However, it would definitely not be a match for a top-notch Domain Expert.
Could that assassin have been a top-notch Domain Expert and was intentionally luring me into a trap?
Thinking about how Yang Ling had mysteriously vanished, the Corpse Wizard King Rodriguez felt more and more at unease. An assassin that had stepped into the level of Domain Expert was an extraordinary threat. It would have had to deal with a person like that with caution even if it had recovered all of its abilities. However, it tossed such a thought to the back of its head after considering it for a moment.
If Yang Ling had been an assassin at the level of Domain Expert, he would not have just severely injured it just now, he would definitely have killed it in one strike. Similarly, if he was truly a Domain Expert assassin, he would not have to run. All he had to do was unleash his terrifying Domain Space to trap it.
After luring the Corpse Wizard King into the Imprisonment Space, Yang Ling silently recited a Wizard mantra, his massive Wizard Power and mental energy welling out, instantly activating the Gravity Restriction and Illusory Formation, trapping the terrifying Corpse Wizard King.
What was most important after that was not to activate the Killing Formation, but to quickly deal with the wound on his left shoulder. If he allowed the wound to spread and the muscles around the wound to rot, he might turn into a mindless zombie not too long into the future!
After flipping through the various antidotes Alice had prepared for him in his Space Ring, Yang Ling grabbed a handful of each of the antidotes and consumed them one by one. However, he soon realized that the antidotes did not help, the wound spreading faster and faster. Not too long later, he felt increasingly giddier, his breathing more and more difficult. Disgusting green hair started growing out of the wound.
Am I going to turn into a green-haired zombie soon?
Before this, he had closely examined the troops and adventurers that had been inflicted with the Corpse Poison and discovered that other than the black-colored blood and pus seeping out of their bodies, they also grew hair of various colors.
Some of them were pitch black, some green and others red… It seemed as though the greater the abilities, the deeper the color of their hair would be. The red cloaked warriors that were about to reach sage level from the Bellimore family all turned into green-haired zombies.
Hiss…
Just as Yang Ling was feeling that the situation was getting worse, the green life force in his body activated itself automatically. The energy gathered toward the wound on his left shoulder, repairing the muscle that was rotting because of the Corpse Poison, letting out a gentle hiss. Soon, Yang Ling recovered his consciousness, his breathing gradually becoming steady. The disgusting green hair also started to slowly disappear.
If the Corpse Poison was an aura of death, then the life force was an aura of life!
The muscles near the wound was rotting under the effects of the Corpse Poison; But the muscles would quickly recover under the effects of the life force. Just like that, the Corpse Poison and the life force competed with each other, while the muscles surrounding the wound continuously rotted, recovered, rotted again, then recovered again…
Under the counteracting effects, Yang Ling felt that his wound was itchy and numb, bringing with it waves of piercing pain, testing his nerves time and time again. However, in order to hide his track and not give the Corpse Wizard King and chance to attack, all he could do was bear with it. If this was someone else, they might have broken down and let out a loud pathetic cry, wanting to scratch on the wound, or cut off the entire piece of flesh.
Even though it felt uncomfortable, the wound had finally stopped spreading under the effects of the life force, causing Yang Ling to heave a sigh of relief.
Hmph, eye for an eye!
After knowing that he had temporarily avoided a crisis, Yang Ling quickly calmed himself down. Looking at the Corpse Wizard King moving around like a headless fly within the Illusory Formation, Yang Ling let out a cold grunt, then silently recited a Wizard Mantra and changed his hand gestures continuously, quickly activating the Killing Formation.
Illusory Formation, twenty times the gravity, coupled with the Killing Formation…
He believed that even though the Corpse Wizard King had strong abilities, it would be severely injured by the various restrictions and his fierce attacks. He would make sure to return all the pain he suffered!
“Divine Lightning from the Heavens!”
The Killing Formation changed continuously. Yang Ling could attack the enemies trapped within the formation with the primal energy of this world by channeling it through his Wizard Power and mental energy. Even though he was still far from reaching the level of Soul Wizard, Yang Ling, as a Divine Wizard, could use the most basic Killing Formation. Of those was the Divine Lightning from the Heavens.
Following his loud roar, a few incredibly dense energy balls suddenly appeared in the Killing Formation, descending from the sky. It blasted the Corpse Wizard King that was caught off guard outward with a rumble. The terrifying energy balls rained down on it continuously, exploding around the Corpse Wizard King. Soon, the latter had become covered in injuries, its body drenched in blood!
A high-level light element Domain Expert?
Looking at the continuous rain of energy balls, the Corpse Wizard King Rodriguez swallowed with difficulty. Light element Domain Experts were incredibly rare within the Tailun Continent. Both their offensive and defensive capabilities were extremely terrifying. To think that it would encounter such a troublesome lad immediately after charging out of the Holy Dragon’s seal.
Must I use my trump card?
Seeing that the black gas around its body was unable to block the exploding energy balls, the Corpse Wizard King whose movement was impaired knew that it no longer had any choice. If it were at its peak, it had a dozen ways to easy dispel Yang Ling’s domain. However, at this moment, with only twenty to thirty percent of its abilities, it only had one method left.
After retrieving a snake-shaped staff from its Space Ring, the Corpse Wizard King molded the black gas around its body into small shields, blocking its vital organs such as its head and heart. It then grabbed onto the fist-sized Essence Crystal on the top of its staff and started murmuring loudly.
With its murmurs, a strange energy soon slowly gathered in the sky. At the same time, the snake-shaped staff in its hands started becoming limp, releasing a ring of pale green light, twitching like a snake.
What spell is this?
Sensing the change in the air, looking at the staff on the hands of the Corpse Wizard King come alive like a snake, Yang Ling lost his color in shock. According to the explanation on the stele, the enemy would have difficulties coming into contact with the spiritual energy in the outside world as long as they were within an Imprisonment Space.
There were only two possibilities for the current situation. One was that the mental energy of the Corpse Wizard King was far greater than his, and was using a mysterious spell to forcefully absorb the energy from the outside world; The other possibility was that the snake-shaped staff itself harbored a massive amount of energy. Both situations were extremely unfavorable for him. Once the Imprisonment Space was dispelled by the other party, it would make extremely hard for him to trap the other party again!
Yang Ling was pale in shock, but the Corpse Wizard King who was murmuring while being blasted by the energy balls was even more alarmed!
The snake-shaped staff could directly absorb energy from the soul dimension by burning its soul energy. It was an ability that could be used no matter which dimension it was in. However, now, even after expending a large amount of its soul energy, the staff could only absorb a pathetic amount of Dead Soul Energy. The snake-shaped staff had not been able to change even after a great deal of time had passed!
Could this be the Corpse Poison?
Would I become a zombie like the rest of the people after being inflicted with this?
