It was late at night, a full moon hung high in the night, and the earth was so quiet that there was no sound of wind.
The green light smoke rising slowly into the sky generates a circle of obscure runes in a complex and exquisite form. The magic circle in the center is like a blooming flower, facing the full moon high in the sky, trying its best to swallow up the invisible magic energy.
Suddenly, the earth shook with a deep and distant vibration. No building collapsed due to this, but there was a trace of restlessness in the surrounding space. It was like the forceful squeezing of a pregnant woman in labor, and it was also the pain that a new life must go through when it comes to the world.
The incarnation of Xuan Weizi was sitting in the "Shelter" cabin, playing with two amethyst balls in his hands and looking at the image projected by the Zhaoying Hanguangjian in front of him.
Ma'ang stood aside while Taylor poured a glass of wine for Xuan Weizi and said: "Teacher, the manpower arranged everywhere has sent back the news one after another. At present, in addition to a group of mages from Changxia City observing from high places, there are also sources
Unknown battle mages and mysterious knights gathered in the northwest of the corpse pit."
"As expected." Xuan Weizi's incarnation took the wine glass and shook it: "I have advised the Decay School, others will be eyeing their rituals."
"But they still insist on going their own way." Taylor asked in confusion: "Teacher, what exactly are the necromancers of the Decay School trying to do? If it is to create undead creatures, then a magic circle of this size might be able to create a legend.
The level of undead creature is even more powerful than that vampire elder."
"Strength is not the only criterion for measuring things." Xuan Weizi reminded: "In the eyes of Ms. Jeanne, necromancy is an extremely evil and intolerable existence. But let me say that necromancy itself is just spell casting.
A by-product of the author's exploration of the mysteries of life and death.
Some clever necromancers have studied and used negative energy to the point where they can transform negative energy into the basis of life. Just like the decay of animals and plants, it makes the soil fertile. And the Decay School sees the relationship between life and death.
cycle of death, but they intend to go further and try to transcend this cycle of life and death."
"Can they do it?" Taylor asked.
Xuan Weizi smiled and said, "I don't know that, so I came nearby to observe."
Several months have passed since the last ceremony of the Decay School. Because Taylor obtained a piece of land from the wealthy merchants of the Chamber of Commerce and moved the poor people outside Changxia City there to resettle and cultivate, the pressure on Changxia City was greatly reduced. Female
Priest Jeanna concentrated on resettling the poor, and no longer thought about causing trouble with the decadent school. Instead, she gave these necromancers the opportunity to rearrange their magic rituals.
Changxia City should have sent people to communicate with the Decay School. I don’t know what kind of deal they passed in private. In short, the Decay School reluctantly restarted the magic ceremony after a few months. However, Changxia City did not expel the Decay School. From the current situation
It seems that the mage group in Changxia City, funded by the Great Chamber of Commerce, is also very interested in the actions of the decadent school.
It is said that it is a very risky behavior to perform magic rituals under such a watchful eye. However, the Decay School is not like ordinary mages. Their determination is comparable to that of church clergy. Judging from their attitude, it seems that as long as the ritual is completed, the goal of life will be completely fulfilled.
Nothing more to ask for.
The spells in this world are not completely external, not to mention that the act of casting spells itself requires the participation of mental consciousness, and different forms of magical energy will in turn affect the caster.
Like a mage who casts arcane magic, the structure of life is shaped by the transformation of arcane energy, eventually forming an arcane matrix similar to meridians in the body, which is deeply connected to the arcane star chart, and the magical effects that can be mobilized are more flexible and powerful; the clergy of the church
The body has been tempered and strengthened by the miraculous power. Whether it is a priest or an armed guard, the bones and muscles are basically strong and the body is extraordinary.
The spirit messengers, druids, who are close to natural energy, not only have extraordinary communication abilities with animals and plants, but also have stronger physical vitality. The natural life span of advanced druids and spirit messengers has also been extended, and they also have "
An achievement like "an ageless body".
As for mages who specialize in necromancy, their bodies are inevitably affected by negative energy. But this is not a good thing for mages with ordinary physiques. Long-term exposure to and use of necromancy that is rich in negative energy, even if there is more
Exquisite conditioning methods can also cause disorders in the functioning of body organs.
Therefore, most of the necromancers of the Decay School were described as haggard and emaciated. Xuan Weizi would have doubted whether they planned to cross their legs, become a Buddha on the spot, and then dry them into physical relics for people to worship.
Xuan Weizi was currently on the hills far away from the corpse pit, paying attention to the magic rituals of the decadent school. Seeing that the magic circle had reached a certain critical point, various bizarre lights and shadows had even begun to appear in the space around the corpse pit. Outsiders rashly
If you get close, you will probably be torn apart by the direct invisible space turbulence.
"coming."
The image projected by the Zhaoying Hanguangjian blurred for a while, and any prediction detection spell could no longer continue to observe the area around the corpse pit. Xuanweizi simply put away the Zhaoying Hanguangjian, stood up and said: "Maian, you follow Taylor.
Go down below and be on guard. If a fight breaks out later and you notice any drastic changes, don't stay and signal everyone to evacuate immediately."
"Yes." Taylor and Myon responded in unison.
After giving these instructions, Xuan Weizi transformed into the appearance of the female mage Mithras, left the shelter hut, and flew to the direction of the corpse pit. At the same time, she concealed herself and observed the specific situation with her own eyes.
When Xuan Weizi saw the corpse pit, he discovered that the bodies of the necromancers performing rituals and spells around them were quickly petrified, shattered, and disintegrated in the surging magic torrent. Their souls entered the magic circle.
The runes push the entire magic circle past the invisible critical point.
"You are so decisive. If the flesh says to give up, just give it up."
When Xuan Weizi saw this scene, he also sensed a trace of surprise in the air nearby. He did not need "true knowledge" to directly sense those characters who relied on illusions to hide themselves.
With Xuan Weizi's current level of spiritual energy, the emotional fluctuations of all living beings will form spiritual power that dissipates outward. In his eyes, it is simply a bright light in the dark night, which cannot be more conspicuous. Unless the other party has considerable attainments in the cultivation of mind,
Able to restrain temperament.
Obviously, the actions of the group of necromancers from the Decay School shocked many secretly onlookers. Even though they knew that the soul was the best raw material for enhancing magical effects, no mage would be crazy enough to include their own souls.
Before the secret onlookers could figure it out, the magic circle above the corpse pit began to collapse inwards and twist together. The undead creatures on the surrounding ground serving as guards also fell down one after another, their bodies collapsed, and the negative energy began to form visible to the naked eye.
The turbid undercurrent converged towards the corpse pit.
At the same time, a cry of a baby came from the center of the collapse, but the cry was not like a normal human newborn at all. On the contrary, it made people shudder. Indescribable fear enveloped the heart, and the indescribable horror broke through the will save.
As the cry spreads between heaven and earth.
"Woah - woah - woah -"
Xuan Weizi could instantly feel dozens of individuals emitting emotional fluctuations in the air around him. The strange and terrifying baby crying instantly aroused fear in these secretly onlookers.
Then there was a loud sound, and the collapse suddenly ended. The turbulence in the space was smoothed by the huge force. The corpse pit that was originally filled with corpses was now empty. There was not even a trace of decay and filth caused by the accumulation of negative energy. Only the cold and deep moonlight could be seen.
Under the illumination, a humanoid being with thin limbs and gray-blue skin floated up. His eyes were closed like a baby's, and an umbilical cord hung down from his lower abdomen, wrapping around one of his legs.
After this strange and unpredictable thin humanoid figure floated out of the corpse pit, the mage immediately let out bursts of exclamations during the communication in mid-air -
"What is that? Why isn't there any aura effect?!"
"Something's not right. That's not a legendary monster. The soul strength has exceeded the detection limit!"
"Is it an immortal existence? If so, it will probably have a lot of immunity, and its spell resistance will be so high that it is difficult to penetrate!"
"What are you afraid of? We still have a scroll made by the legendary mage here. Before he reacts, do it immediately!"
Xuan Weizi's telepathy cut into the communication between these mages, and he realized that in addition to the mages from Changxia City, there were also some people with unknown origins. As Xuan Weizi gradually flew away, he cursed: "The Eye of Mystery and the
As soon as Nazareth shrank, all kinds of monsters and monsters appeared."
Seeing these mages casting spells one after another, they were obviously well prepared. Four beams of light rose from mid-air, and a powerful confinement effect pressed down from the sky, forming a rushing super gravity field. Even high-level warriors would be crushed instantly if they were in it.
You have to bend your knees.
However, the thin humanoid figure that was just born was completely unaffected and was still floating in the air. However, it seemed to feel something, and it tried to open its closed eyes.
But before the thin humanoid could make any move, the hidden mages cast spells again. Countless fine grains of dust swirled and flew down, gathering around the thin humanoid, gradually forming a crystalline and zigzag threaded pillar, trapping the thin humanoid inside.
.
"That's...'Eternal Stasis'? And it's at the level of a legendary mage." Xuan Weizi remembered that a considerable part of the arcane system is based on gems and crystals, and from this, quite complex and complete gems are formed.
Learning, gem cutting technology. Although most psychic items are also based on crystals, the Golden Flower Society is indeed not as good as mages in this aspect.
The crystal threaded pillar has an extremely solid confinement effect, which is much more powerful than the starlight cocoon used by Xuanmizi to seal Comosius. Xuanmizi also felt that there was a very sophisticated protective spell outside the crystal threaded pillar, which could block external spells.
The attack absorbs and transforms, thereby solidifying the crystal threaded pillar itself. Even if the Xuanminin turns into an adamantine golem and falls from the sky again depending on its weight, it is estimated that it will not be able to break the crystal threaded pillar.
"Awesome, you came prepared." Xuan Weizi secretly exclaimed, there are indeed more masters lurking in the old continent. Maybe they don't have the appearance of Nazarui, but they still have superb magic methods.
Although the sealing method of this crystal thread pillar can't be imprisoned at all as long as the enemy is a little more alert and flexible, as long as it is successfully sealed, Xuan Weizi's incarnation will feel that there is no way to escape. Unless there is someone outside holding the "Transcendental Blade", or the ancient
Shim's battle ax, with its sharp edge as a space-cutting artifact, forcibly broke the seal.
Click——
Xuan Weizi had just settled on his thoughts when there was a cracking sound from the crystal threaded column. The strength of the crystal seal was comparable to that of diamond, and cracks appeared out of thin air inside. This immediately caused uneasy discussion among the mages:
"What's going on? Isn't there a magic absorption effect inside? Why are there still cracks?"
"It seems that the thing created by the Decay School is indeed not simple. Maybe it is an existence with extraordinary divinity like Gushim."
"Demigod? Are you kidding! How can those skinny people from the decadent school have such great abilities!"
"Have you forgotten the vampire elder beside them? Those are not ordinary vampires, but the first batch of vampires, possessing the original immortal characteristics, and that is the main medium of this ritual of the Decay School!"
"Where's that vampire elder? Was he also sucked in?"
"No, he slipped away after the ceremony started in the middle of the night!"
"Escaped?! What do you do for food?! That vampire elder is probably the only intermediary that interferes with this demigod. Get him back quickly!"
"But, but, the vampire elders cannot be locked by any prophecy spells at all, otherwise they would have been able to capture a few of them and slice them up for study!"
"Then what should we do now? Oops! There are more and more cracks, and this thing is going to break free of the seal!"
"Cast a spell! Throw in as many spells as you want and reinforce the seal! I'll contact Changxia City and ask the governor to seal the city for search. That vampire elder expends his own strength to assist in the ritual, and he will definitely need to drink blood to recover afterwards!"
This time, the mages no longer hid, they screamed one by one, copied out the scrolls, and waved their staffs. A large number of earth-shattering energy-shaping spells rushed down and bombarded the crystal threaded pillars without causing any damage. Instead, they watched flames and lightning.
It was restored to magical energy, repairing the cracks in the crystal pillar.
However, this move only slowed down the crack, and the thin human figure inside finally opened its swollen eyes with difficulty.
"Wow——"
The thin humanoid let out a deafening cry of a baby, and all the nearby mages simultaneously felt the severe pain of the iron being stabbed into their brains. Nearly half of the mages fainted on the spot, and the remaining mages were also bleeding from their orifices, and could hardly concentrate on thinking and casting spells.
Xuan Weizi, who had already flown away, once again sent a message to all his men, warning them to evacuate as far away as possible and not to approach the corpse pit again. This demigod created by the decadent school may not have much normal mind.
.
"It's so good that this demigod, this baby... is a giant!" From the baby's cry, Xuan Weizi discerned an all-too-familiar rhythm of life.
The cries became stronger and stronger, and the crystal threaded pillars could not bear the load and exploded. The sharp cries formed a sound wave visible to the naked eye, spreading across the sky and sweeping across the earth. Among the dozens of mages who were closest, there were only two
He reluctantly cast a teleportation spell to escape, and the others immediately exploded into a ball of blood mist. All life vitality and soul essence, as well as the energy of magic items, were swallowed and absorbed by the thin humanoid.
