Necromancer: I Am A Disaster

Soul force flowed like a vast river, steadily pouring into every God-level expert present.

A faint radiance shimmered around each of them, with their souls being strengthened, even sublimated.

Meng Anwen, Bai Yiyuan, Ning Tairan, and others at level 95 already possessed formidable souls, each only half a step away from breaking through to level 96.

Now, with this immense infusion of soul force, that final wall began to crumble.

For those of lesser strength, such as Dongfang Yi, the benefits were even more profound.

As the soul force washed through Dongfang Yi, his expression softened into one of bliss.

In that moment, every hardship he had endured felt worthwhile. His once-stagnant potential was reignited, surging with renewed vitality.

But the greatest beneficiary of all was Lin Mohan.

She had just reached level 90, and at only 22 years old, an incredibly young age.

Her soul, brimming with vitality, resembled a newly sprouted tree with infinite potential.

Under the nourishment of soul force, that newly sprouted tree grew rapidly, its future limitless.

Emperor Di regarded her with great expectation. He believed Lin Mohan would soon reach the half-step Transcendent God level.

Even Antares voiced no objection, silently acknowledging her extraordinary potential.

As the torrent of soul force continued, some among them began to shine with blinding brilliance.

Their souls had reached saturation. They could no longer absorb another drop.

Sensing this, Lin Moyu severed their connection, halting the influx.

Each person’s limit and potential differed, so the amount of soul force they could absorb varied greatly.

One after another, the experts reached their peak capacity.

Meanwhile, Lin Moyu’s control over the Soul Millstone grew increasingly fluid and effortless.

Through the current of soul force, he could perceive each individual’s potential with startling clarity.

Meng Anwen, Yan Kuangsheng, and Bai Yiyuan were indeed the most gifted, their absorption of soul force far exceeding that of Feng Chang’an and the others.

Dongfang Yi and his peers formed the second tier.

Yet none could compare to Lin Mohan. Her absorption eclipsed them all.

When everyone had reached their limit, the Soul Millstone still pulsed with abundant soul force.

“One-fifth remains.” Lin Moyu estimated.

His thoughts shifted, and the formation changed in response.

The remaining soul force surged outward, sweeping across the entire Shenxia Empire.

Those who became hosts of the Soul Devouring Beasts were all rewarded.

They felt as if they were bathing in divine dew, a comfort beyond words.

Under Lin Moyu’s meticulous control, the soul force wasn’t distributed evenly.

Those of higher talent received a bit more; those of lesser talent, a bit less.

Lin Moyu exerted himself controlling the formation, striving to be as meticulous as possible.

Lin Mohan watched her brother at work, pride and warmth shining in her eyes.

“Moyu has truly grown up… He can stand on his own now.”

No matter what he became, he would always be her younger brother, her dearest person.

For his sake, she would give everything, even her life.

“Brother, I’ll rise as fast as I can. No matter what danger comes… I’ll stand before you.”

...

In the Dragonkind World, the Dragon Emperor was drenched in blood.

The sight was alarming, but the wounds were merely superficial.

He trembled uncontrollably, his face ashen.

The formation beneath him had already stopped functioning. The spatial channel was destroyed, and the formation he had painstakingly constructed had collapsed.

The many precious materials lodged in the formation were shattered instantly.

He had paid a high price to set up the formation, pouring in large quantities of rare resources.

Furthermore, to keep the formation operating and the spatial channel open, he endured continuous lightning strikes.

Though not gravely wounded, he looked utterly ruined.

Just as the Dreadbeast King was about to descend upon the Human World, the spatial channel shattered.

All the preparation were ruined in an instant.

At this moment, he flew into a rage and even had the impulse to personally force his way into the Human World.

“Lin Moyu, it’s you again! I will kill you!”

“Summon the troops! Prepare to attack the humans!”

At his command, the Dragonkind surged into motion.

All of a sudden, the sky above the Dragonkind World tore open with a sound like ripping cloth, and a colossal rift yawned.

The rift was thousands of kilometers across, exposing the black void beyond.

Lightning and thunder exploded from it with terrifying suction; countless Dragonkind were dragged screaming into the void, their fates unknown.

From the void, a vast, translucent claw reached out and struck toward the Dragon Emperor.

The Dragon Emperor roared and met it with a punch.

With a single thunderous blast, he was hurled like a meteor back to the ground.

He smashed into the earth, carving a crater hundreds of meters deep.

All the bones in his body felt as if they were about to shatter, leaving him unable to rise for a moment.

Staring up in horror, he shouted, “Lord Antares, what is the meaning of this? Why did you attack me?”

Antares’ voice came from the sky, cold and merciless, “By bringing Dreadbeasts to assail the Human World, you broke the tripartite rules. Consider this a warning. Next time, I will slaughter your kind.”

After a moment, the rift sealed. The Dragonkind World returned to normal.

…

In the Abyssal World, the Demon Emperor’s Palace still glowed with flame.

The Demon Emperor sat on his ornate throne, thoughtful, “Antares…why did he interfere?”

“My senses were definitely right. That aura was Antares’.”

“By the rules, Antares should not meddle in the affairs of our three races. What’s his aim now?”

“That fool Dragon Emperor tried to lure a Dreadbeast King there. Does he think the humans lack anyone who can deal with a Dreadbeast King?”

“If he angers Antares, life will become very unpleasant.”

As he muttered to himself, the Demon Emperor picked up an empty cup.

There was no Dragonkind blood left.

Remembering how the captured Dragon King had exploded into a mist of blood, he rose and walked outside.

“This time, I’ll capture a mid-tier Dragon King. Their blood should taste far better.”

As he spoke, his figure had already vanished from the palace.

To the Demon Emperor, this entire affair was nothing more than a trifling matter. He had paid almost no price to descend into the Human World.

Whether he obtained the Soul Millstone or not made little difference.

At his level, external soul force was meaningless.

It was the same for Jiang Yi and Emperor Di.

Their souls were already strong beyond compare; external forces could do little to enhance them.

…

In the air, the Soul Millstone faded from sight, and the Soul Fusion Grand Formation ceased its operation.

At that moment, Dongfang Yi issued his command: “Seal the nation!”

The Soul Devouring Beasts within the borders had already been purged. The next step was to prevent any from beyond the empire from sneaking back in.

This had been planned from the very beginning, with thorough preparations made in advance.

At Dongfang Yi’s command, a large number of personnel mobilized across the borders of the Shenxia Empire, completely sealing off all frontier regions.

Soldiers, administrators, academy staff, and local powers alike moved into position.

Across the vast frontiers, great formations began to hum to life. No trespasser could escape detection.

Whether by sky, sea, mountain, or even burrowing underground, entry into the Shenxia Empire was now impossible.

The formations sealed the heavens and locked the earth, isolating the empire entirely.

When the mightiest nation in the Human World operated at full power, not even a drop of water could seep through its defenses.

At the same time, the empire announced its strength to the world.

Even the long-contested borderlands were decisively incorporated into its domain, without the slightest hesitation.

Any faction daring to object would be met with direct and ruthless force.

Bai Yiyuan turned to Medicine God Shu, “The rest depends on you, Old Shu.”

Medicine God Shu chuckled heartily, his wrinkled face glowing with satisfaction, “The potion formula was modified long ago, and we’ve stockpiled plenty of Redstone. If those fellows want them, they’ll have to pay for them.”

Bai Yiyuan nodded, “Discuss the details with Emperor Dongfang. The price must not be low, especially for Redstone. They can’t get that anywhere else.”

Redstone was the key ingredient in the potion used to deal with Soul Devouring Beasts. It was mined exclusively from a secret realm of the Jiangning Academy.

Even if other forces acquired the formula, they would still need to buy the materials from the Shenxia Empire.

That gave the empire ample leverage in setting the price.

The Shenxia Empire had suffered heavy losses this time, and it was only fair to recoup some of them.

Meng Anwen added, “Those who gave their lives for this plan must be properly honored. Their families, especially, must be cared for. These people are heroes.”

“Also, keep an eye on everyone who participated in the operation. Exceptional talents will surely emerge among them. Make sure they are all admitted to the top academies.”

It felt as though the true plan was only just beginning. Everything before had merely been the prelude.

The gathered God-level experts discussed what might come next, each wearing a faint smile.
