Cursed Immortality

Chapter 956: Dead Faction Moves

In the Virtual Dark World, the Blood Doom King and Underwood Fiend King appeared in their virtual forms within the Dark Nexus Citadelʼs judgment hall.

”Whatʼs the rush, Underwood? I was having a meal, and I donʼt like it when someone disturbs my meals!” Wilbur coldly stated as his blood-red eyes flashed with bloodlust.

Underwood retorted, ”You still have time for meals? It seems you havenʼt received the news about the Ghost Domain! Tsk, tsk. You guys know nothing but sleep around and drink. I sometimes wonder how your race manages to survive to this day!”

Wilburʼs virtual form flickered menacingly, mirroring his rage, but Underwood was fearless. They both knew it was meaningless to attack each other here. If anything, the Undying Will would punish them.

Furthermore, Wilburʼs attention was instantly drawn when Underwood mentioned ʼGhost Domainʼ; he knew something had happened but didnʼt get any information.

Wilburʼs expression turned ugly as his rage shifted to his Viner, who had made him lose face in front of Underwood. But it wasnʼt Vinerʼs fault either because the Fiend Race had the most advantageous runic technology among the Dead Faction, and their abilities were even stranger, to say the least.

Fiends have the strongest talent when it comes to Rune Crafting among the Dark Beings.

As for the Vampires, they were just as Underwood said; they were well versed in Dark Alchemy and the Ghost Race; their magic scroll and talismans were famous in the Legendary Plains.

Although they werenʼt a match for the Alchemy Guild, they had unique products, such as life medicines, terrifying runic treasures (Talismans, Arrays, and Formations), and Dark Magic.

At this moment, before Wilbur can counter Underwood, an unexpected voice rang, ”Iʼve detected all that the Dark Soul Rings inside the Soulless Palace of Ghost Domain and its vicinity abruptly lost their connections with their owners. This includes the Soul Ghost King and Ghost Ministers.

”As of now, my Dark Space Satellites arenʼt workable in the area of the Soulless Palace. In fact, when I sent a Dark Space Satellite closer and used its scanner, it was instantly destroyed despite being hidden in the chaotic space.

”You seemed to know something, Underwood Fiend King; report everything, and if this information is precious, you will be rewarded!”

The Undying Willʼs solemn voice left Underwood and Wilbur stunned for a few moments before Underwoodʼs eyes shimmered with a hint of shock and elation. While Wilbur appeared muddled for a moment, he finally realized the gravity of the situation.

But regret soon surfaced in his heart, and he cursed Viner again for his incompetence since Underwood had gotten this unexpected opportunity by just having a good ʼspyʼ on the enemy side.

Still, he couldnʼt do anything now, and he was curious about the situation in the Ghost Domain. After all, everyone knew that the Undying Will werenʼt even afraid of SAAI and were just as capable. Yet, it had failed to analyze the problem and even seemed to have lost something extremely valuable.

The situation in the Ghost Domain was already dire because of the Soulless Ghost Kingʼs arrogance. He was currently the most wanted criminal of the Dead Faction.

Yet before Underwood or Wilbur could finish their preparations, something unexpected happened, and it happened right where the core of the Ghost Domain was and where the Soulless Ghost King lives!

At this moment, Underwood said, ”Itʼs just as the Arbitrator had stated. Around four or five days ago, the Ghost Domainʼs unique layer of negative energy, which can significantly influence anyone below Legendary Lord Rank experts of other racesʼ prowess and mentality, suddenly started to dissipate.

”This unique energy is also the source of the Ghost Raceʼs increased strength within the Ghost Domain and is said to be connected with their forbidden region, the Soul Abyss, which they claimed to be the source of their Racial prowess and gift left behind by the Soulless Ghost Ancestor.

”We fiends are also sensitive towards Souls, and Negative Life Force is the strongest in the Soul, so my men posted along our boarders insistently noticed the disappearance of the negative energy five days ago, and since then, it has been continuing to dwindle, and its speed is increasing with each passing second.

”Up until now, it has already been reduced by half, and now it canʼt influence anyone above Unique Rank. If Iʼm not wrong, the Arbitrator shouldʼve encountered the source of this diminishing negative energy.

”Whatever it is, I think we should let it continue, and once all the negative energy in the Ghost Domain is gone, our Fiend and Vampire Races can start our invasion without having to worry about a decrease in our powers, and we can capture the Soulless Ghost King if he had lost the advantage of the Soulless Palace without having to use the Relic granted to us by you!”

Wilburʼs eyes flashed with realization as he fully grasped the situation and felt the same train of thought as Underwood. Although he had missed the chance to earn merits, it didnʼt mean he didnʼt have another, and a much bigger opportunity presented itself again.

”Respected Arbitrator, if what Underwood said is true, then I can have my men use dark alchemy to influence the environment of the Ghost Domain. The Ghost Race hates Blood Vitality because it has the least amount of Negative Life Force while it is a strong Yang Attribute instead of a pure Yin attribute of the negative life force.

”This can greatly weaken the Ghost Race as long as they have lost the protection of the negative energy!” Wilbur confidently stated as his eyes flashed with killing intent as if he couldnʼt wait to dig his fangs into Soulless Ghost Kingʼs bloodless flesh!

Underwoodʼs eyes narrowed subtly as he wasnʼt expecting Wilbur to suggest something like this, and he knew Wilbur was probably using this chance to wipe out the entire Ghost Race because the Vampire and Ghosts have the strongest enmity as they were both natural enemies.

The Vampire physiques were full of Yin attributes and could naturally produce them, but it wasnʼt a good thing for the Vampires because the stronger the Yin attribute, the weaker they became and the longer their slumber.

Thatʼs why Vampires like Blood Vitality are filled with warmth or Yang attributes, which not only stop them from falling into slumber, but once they reach the perfect balance of the yin-yang in their body, their prowess can skyrocket.

However, if they somehow accumulate more yang in their bodies, theyʼll instantly start to burn. Thatʼs why the Vampire Race also hates the Ghost Race.

Ghost Race have natural physiques to Yin attribute, and the stronger the yin attribute, the more powerful they are. Yet, unlike the Vampires, the Ghost Race canʼt produce Yin attributes naturally, so they envy the Vampires.

Furthermore, Ghost Raceʼs greatest weakness was the Yang attribute, which was also one of the main attributes of the holy element. So, their hate and disgust for the Vampires was etched in their souls.

Only the Fiend Race was immune to both Yin and Yang attributes of any race of the Dark Beings, and only pure, holy magic or powerful soul magic could harm them. Physically, Fiends can almost match a Giant because of their lesser demon bloodline!

But there was a problem: they needed the Undying Willʼs approval to take such action against one of the top races of the Dead Faction. No matter what, only the Soulless Ghost King had turned traitor, and other Ghost Kings had already taken the Dead Faction side while the Soul Ghost King was also given an offer she hadnʼt rejected before she vanished.

At this moment, the Undying Will finally spoke: ”You have permission to take action as you see fit! But make sure at least 5% of the ghost race survives. They are an important part of our system, and their absence can affect the balance between living and dead!”
