Chapter 96: Chapter 94: The Shocked Savior Squad

”The number is huge, the dead corrupted monsters are countless, it’s hard to imagine what kind of existence could achieve such a feat.”

The great Hero, Casterly, stepped forward and carefully observed the dead monsters. He reached out and lightly wiped the monster’s corpse, observing the change in the bloodstains.

”The blood of corrupted monsters is special, the drying speed differs from normal humans. Judging by the change in bloodstains, these monsters should have died in the last two days.”

”Not only that...”

Casterly’s words paused, his expression grew increasingly solemn as he continued, ”The injuries on these corrupted monsters are extremely terrifying, almost all were killed instantly with one strike, and it is highly likely they were killed by some kind of long weapon. That guy’s strength... might be stronger than mine.”

”In the last two days?”

Yin Yue’s mouth corners twitched, and a particularly absurd thought suddenly popped into his mind.

Could it be...

The Divine Monarch’s avatar kept flashing because...

No way, absolutely not!

Yin Yue instantly denied it. In his understanding, the power of a Spiritualist has limits, and the more you carefully calculate to enhance your abilities, increasing the benefits from world exploration, supplementing different factors for strengthening your power, the clearer you can feel that layer of limit’s existence.

A Hero Level Spiritualist, being able to kill Monarch Level strong individuals, would already be the ultimate for a Spiritualist. To consecutively kill two Monarchs with pure strength has already exceeded the limits of what a Spiritualist should possess.

That absolutely cannot exist!

Therefore, he suspected the Divine Monarch was a Curse System Spiritualist, who through some item transferred and paid the price, thereby curse killing two Monarch-level strong individuals.

Rushing into the Withered Land to kill hard...

Is this something a Spiritualist can do?

”This is...”

Not far away, Lu squatted down and gently opened a corrupted monster’s corpse. He found a severely damaged item beneath the corpse.

[Isolation Gas Mask (Damaged)]

”It’s... an item... from the Spirit Realm.”

Lu turned his head to his companions and said, his voice trembling slightly, usually calm and composed, his mentality at the moment was slightly shaken.

Under normal conditions, items from the Spirit Realm shouldn’t appear in a world like Elydenis, which is on the brink of destruction. Normal Spiritualists wouldn’t come here, only those urgently summoned would come to such a world.

In other words...

The Divine Monarch, he entered the Withered Land ahead of them and forcibly killed thousands, or perhaps even more, corrupted monsters.

The atmosphere within the team felt a bit strange. The great Hero, Casterly, who didn’t understand much about Spiritualists, asked in confusion, ”Why are you showing such expressions, isn’t the one who came here your teammate?”

”He’s our teammate, but he hardly communicated with us before, we didn’t know he fought his way here, let alone understand why he was so fierce,” Xing Ran answered honestly.

Suddenly, he remembered the Divine Monarch once said the leader of the Throat of the End, Calidos, had ambushed him but got punched to death by him.

Previously, he thought the Divine Monarch was bluffing people, but now he feels it might be true.

”It should be a random summoning skill.”

Lu casually handed the gas mask to the equally stunned Tian Qing beside him and continued, ”If he uses a long weapon for melee combat, then the gas mask would be a constraint for him, preventing him from exerting his full strength.”

”Therefore, I speculate he might have used a highly unstable random summoning technique to summon a temperamental yet highly powerful entity, which slaughtered all the surrounding corrupted monsters.”

”It’s indeed possible.”

Tian Qing looked at the gas mask in his hand and revealed a slight relieved expression.

The power of Spiritualists has limits; they absolutely can’t defeat a Dominator, this is written in textbooks and verified by countless strong geniuses. To have the great Hero, Casterly, say the opponent’s strength might be stronger than his, is likely achieved by summoning a strong entity through random summoning.

He can’t truly be on par with a Dominator, can he?

Conversely, if the Divine Monarch, wearing the gas mask and under limited strength condition, could still easily kill such a large number of corrupted monsters.

Then is he still a Spiritualist?

Still human?

....

The Savior Squad continued to advance deeper, but the further they went, the more apprehensive they became.

Along the way, various monster corpses were casually thrown by the roadside, even Monarch Level Skeleton Giants turned into lumps at the roadside, with the air still lingering with sorrow and despair left by the extinguished soul fires.

”Exactly who did this.”

The Saintess of the Holy Law Institute’s pupils trembled. She was simultaneously blessing all the members of the Savior Squad while sensing the mournful whispers of dispersed souls.

She perceived despair, horror, madness, it’s important to note that these conveyed messages weren’t from humans but originally mindless corrupted monsters.

What kind of existence could frighten the fearless Corrupted creatures to such an extent?

”I sensed the essence of slaughter.”

Casterly said.

He was a Hero Level warrior, brave and battle-hardened, not particularly skilled in perception, yet he could gather more information from the remnants of battle.

”Slaughter?”

The Saintess frowned in doubt, thinking: So many Corrupted creatures have died here, isn’t the essence of slaughter already obvious?

”It’s not a standard slaughter left behind, rather that individual naturally carries the aura of slaughter. It feels as if he himself is the origin of slaughter. That pure aura of slaughter was not left by carrying out slaughter but emanates from him.” Casterly said solemnly.

”Master, I... I seem to sense something special calling me!”

The next moment, Child of the World - Erian suddenly revealed a joyful smile, continuing, ”I sense that if I obtain the item summoning me, my capabilities will advance further, reaching a higher tier.”

’A key quest item? As expected, I knew that in a world born like this, the Child of the World could not possibly be only at top Monarch level.’

Lu smiled understandingly and asked, ”Can you roughly point out in which direction?”

”Over there.”

”Core area?”

Lu nodded slightly, feeling that Erian might be the type who becomes stronger in a decisive battle, his strength rapidly improving, and what will enable his ultimate transformation is the final battle with the remnants of the Ancient God.

”Let’s go, move forward.”

The group continued advancing towards the Mark of Corruption.

But they hadn’t walked far when they felt an incredibly terrifying energy explosion erupt from the core area, the sky-reaching power of Blood Qi so intense even those in the Withered Land felt fear and horror.

Not only that, along with it came a sky-piercing howl, terrifying and desperate, as if pleading for help, sounding not human, like some creature using its twisted throat to make noise.

Tian Qing remained silent, simply opening the temporary channel, watching the flashing avatar of the Divine Monarch, lost in deep thought for a long time.

Though Lu’s words were very reasonable earlier, could such random summoning continue to be used multiple times, continuously summoning mighty warriors of this caliber?

To take a step back, even if such warriors were summoned, the Ancient God’s Aura at the core of the Mark of Corruption is truly present.

Without high enough Abnormal Status Resistance, ordinary people can’t stay inside for long, quickly descending into madness, and being corroded into monsters.

Without Holy Water and blessings, those who can fight within the Mark of Corruption are likely to be supreme warriors, of extraordinary strength.

Although this might destroy my long-held beliefs about the Spirit Realm and Spiritualists, I must consider this possibility.

That is...

The Divine Monarch truly possesses Dominator Level strength! He directly charged in! He might even be challenging some BOSS now!

This is a world-altering hypothesis.

”Quick! Close your eyes!”

The great hero Casterly suddenly shouted, turning his head instantly and forcibly covering the eyes of the team member closest to him. Others who heard him quickly reacted.

Even though they didn’t know what was happening, they chose to trust Casterly, a Veteran Warrior with Golden Spirit who wouldn’t possibly harm them at such a time.

The next moment, the sky instantly tore open, hundreds of eyes glared wide open, seemingly trying to judge and kill all enemies with eye contact.

Hundreds of giant eyes fixed on the man battling Omaragon’s Remains and Twisted Creatures below, a continuous explosion of Instant Death judgments, all countered by Abnormal Status Resistance, and the deep Corruption couldn’t exert its original effects.

One must know, initially the world’s strongest Child of the World - Calidos, when he challenged the Ancient God’s Remains, was also corroded gradually by continuous Instant Death judgments. Ultimately, his Spirit completely collapsed, becoming the Leader of the Throat of the End.

Becoming Calidos the Traitor.

In his peak, he possessed strength that could be considered top-tier even among Dominator Level, yet nevertheless, under the continuous Corruption of Ancient God’s Aura, he couldn’t continuously resist, as Corruption’s power would accumulate.

This process is like rusting; it’s not instantly judged as success or failure, subsequent judgments are new, but it’s a steady Corrosion, each time more difficult.

”Boom!!”

A violent, terrifying sound exploded, followed by a heart-rending roar, the god-like warrior wielding the Blood Spear launched another charge, the spear soared.

During those three days, his body had accumulated much corrosion, and when Twisted Creatures launched pointblank Corruption attacks, his body was already close to its limit.

However...

Tier One Glory Potion

Usage Effect: After drinking, immediately restores Life and Spiritual Energy to 100%, clears all negative states, limited to Tier One usage.

After using the Tier One Glory Potion, Ye Mingqiu not only recovered completely, but all accumulated negative effects were entirely cleared, fully capable of sustaining the upcoming battle.

Therefore, even if at that time there wasn’t a necessity to interrupt Twisted Creatures’ fusion and had to take Omaragon’s Remains’ concentrated fierce attacks, Ye Mingqiu would find time to use the Tier One Glory Potion regardless, just that the cost-effectiveness wouldn’t be as high as now.
