Chapter 491: The Escaping Necromancer

The Myriad-Change Butterfly shuddered.

Why was this skeleton looking at it with such a perverted gaze?

Goosebumps were about to break out all over its body.

Facing such a perverted skeleton, the Myriad-Change Butterfly was about to vomit.

"Go, Myriad-Change Butterfly, release the Heavy Water."

The white, flowing water poured onto the Black Flame Skeleton King once again.

Each drop of Heavy Water was as heavy as a thousand jun, and as it smashed onto the Black Flame Skeleton King, it immediately emitted a cracking sound.

Its spine was bent by the weight of the Heavy Water, and it let out an unbearable roar from its mouth.

"Black Flame Skeleton King!!!"

At this moment, the Necromancer was extremely furious.

This was killing his subordinate right in front of his face.

"Hmph."

"Convert to Heavy Water mode."

As the pitch-black outer layer fell off one after another, the Black Flame Skeleton King transformed into a brand-new form.

In this brand-new form, all the bones on its body turned into a crystal-like color.

"The Necromancer's research is quite impressive; he can even develop a Skeleton King of this level."

"Just how many forms does it have?"

"Sunflower Fairy, split off a Wood Giant and bind the Skeleton King!!!"

The Sunflower Fairy nodded heavily and brought its hands together.

Countless green seeds shot out from its hands, scattering in all directions.

Just then, the ground trembled and then split open in many places.

Endless vines emerged from the ground, condensing into a giant dozens of meters tall in front of the Sunflower Fairy.

If the Sunflower Fairy had weird patterns on its face and carried a scroll on its back, it would be the spitting image of Zhujian reborn.

A madman who conquered the world with Wood Release.

"Heavy Water Skeleton King, go."

Just then, the Necromancer suddenly saw starlight emerging in the sky.

He suddenly realized one thing: he had not come here to fight to the death with Ye Bai and the others.

The Necromancer was here to find the Soul of the Leviathan Whale.

"Oh no, did the Star Sage also enter the body of the Leviathan Whale?"

"If she takes away the Soul of the Leviathan Whale, all my previous efforts will be wasted."

What the Necromancer was most unwilling to accept was having his prey snatched away by the Star Sage.

He had suffered under the Star Sage for a long time.

"Star Sage, you stinking woman, how dare you snatch food from my mouth."

"You just wait."

At this moment, the Necromancer could not even care about the Blood Pool he had painstakingly refined.

"Black Magic, Space Corpse Crow Summoning."

A Magic Array appeared on the ground, and bone crows with bits of flesh on their bodies appeared one after another.

In their skulls were two weird eyes, with countless thread-like objects on them.

"Space Corpse Crows, pierce through space for me; I want to find the location of the Leviathan Whale's soul."

Although the Necromancer was a master of manipulating souls, this was, after all, the physical body and skeleton of the Leviathan Whale.

Therefore, he could not detect the specific location of the Leviathan Whale.

But the Space Corpse Crows could shuttle through multiple dimensions.

Every time they were used, they consumed Soul crystals; otherwise, the Space Corpse Crows would perish completely due to overexertion.

Every single Space Corpse Crow was an incredibly precious existence to the Necromancer.

He could not bear for his treasures to be harmed.

"Go, Space Corpse Crows."

The Space Corpse Crows tore through space and shuttled off in all directions.

"Stinking woman, you actually snuck in here while I wasn't paying attention."

"If the Leviathan Whale is stolen by you, my face will be trampled under your feet."

"Found it, Space Corpse Crows, found it—no, that stinking woman actually dared to launch a sneak attack!!!"

The Necromancer let out a roar.

"Blood Skeleton King, block it for me."

"Heavy Water Skeleton King, let's go."

The Necromancer was confident that with the blessing of the Blood Pool, the Blood Skeleton King should be able to gain the upper hand.

"Black Magic, Undead Teleportation."

He held the Scepter in his hand and stomped heavily on the ground, and a giant Magic Array appeared.

The Magic Array covered the feet of the Heavy Water Skeleton King and the Necromancer.

"Teleport!"

The surrounding scene shifted, and the figures of the Heavy Water Skeleton King and the Necromancer disappeared as a result.

The Necromancer's figure vanished directly in front of everyone.

When the Necromancer teleported to the place where the Leviathan whale's Soul was located.

He saw a scene that made his eyes split with rage.

A pale blue Soul Gem had fallen into the hands of the Star Sage, and the figure of a giant whale faintly appeared within the Soul Gem.

At the same time, his spatial corpse crows were being entangled by blue specks of light.

A large amount of black Qi was emerging from the bodies of the corpse crows.

"Star Sage, how dare you!!!"

The Necromancer began to curse loudly; these spatial corpse crows were his lifeblood!

How could the Star Sage dare to do this!!!

The Necromancer was so angry he was about to jump up; he wished he could roll up his sleeves and have a fight with the Star Sage.

"Haha, your treasures are now the Star Spirits under my command."

"Even the Soul of this Leviathan whale is now under my control."

"I will purify the Leviathan whale's Soul into a Star Spirit, and then craft its skeleton into a Starry Sky Battleship."

The Star Sage looked down at the Necromancer from a high position.

She could feel the fury on the Necromancer's body.

"What's wrong, Necromancer, why are you so angry?"

"Aren't we both members of the Gospel Society?"

"What is wrong with me taking a few things? Besides, this was never your property to begin with."

"Good things always follow the principle of first come, first served, don't they?"

These words completely enraged the Necromancer.

"You bitch, I shouldn't have brought you into the Gospel Society in the first place; I have let a wolf into the house."

The Necromancer was now in a state of blind rage.

"So what?"

"Necromancer, I am bullying you, so what?"

The Star Sage grinned and laughed.

"You should be glad that my true body is not here, and that only her calmest Clone has come."

"Otherwise, the Sun Sage could beat your dog head in, believe it or not."

The Necromancer felt deep humiliation.

"Hmph, the Trinity itself has flaws."

"Don't forget, this is the cultivation technique I taught you."

The Necromancer said with extreme composure.

"Even if you are at the Eighth Rank, so what? Your Soul is not complete and will be countered by my Banshee."

"Star Sage, let us each take a step back; I only want the carcass of the Leviathan whale, you can take the Soul."

"How about you return my spatial corpse crows to me?"

Although the Necromancer was very angry, he still softened his tone; after all, his heart and soul treasures were all in the hands of the Star Sage.

"Are you trying to make me spit out what I have already swallowed?"

"How could there be such a good thing?"

A Banshee with disheveled hair appeared behind the Star Sage.

She opened her mouth and let out the wail of the undead.

"Hahaha, Star Sage, this was a delaying tactic of mine; I didn't expect you to fall for it."

"The Banshee's voice can interfere with your Soul."

"I am missing a corpse puppet; I can bind your Soul."

"And then stuff it into an ugly corpse puppet."

"I am a master at playing with Souls; I can shield your Soul aura so that your true body and the other two Clones cannot find your trail."

"Once you are imprisoned by me, I will find an opportunity to imprison the other two Clones, and then control your true body as well."

The Necromancer stated his perverted plan.

However, the Banshee's voice was blocked by the Star Sage's Star Spirits.

Countless starlight flickered and vanished in mid-air.

"Necromancer, you are still too conceited; did you think I didn't know about your little tricks?"

"The Leviathan whale's Soul has fallen into my hands, and the scene around here is under my control."

"How could I possibly reveal such an obvious flaw?"

"Necromancer, I was just waiting for you to make a move."

Upon hearing this, the Necromancer was suddenly shocked.

His Heavy Water Skeleton King was entangled by countless Star Spirits and frozen into ice.

Furthermore, his teleportation array had also lost its effect.

"Necromancer, you have been acting like a condescending elder for a long time; ever since I came in, you have had such a thick 'dad-splaining' air about you."

"Your various methods are endless; honestly, I am already tired of it."

"I am tired of everything; I am tired of all the strife."

"I have only one goal, which is to become a god, change all injustice, and resurrect the people I want to resurrect."

"As for that flaw of mine, you really underestimate my talent too much."

"The true body solved it long ago."

The Star Sage grinned, revealing a cold, sharp smile.

"To be honest, Necromancer, I have been waiting for you to make a move for a long time."

"That way, I can have a legitimate reason to act, do you understand?"

The Star Sage grinned.

"You have fallen into my trap."

The Necromancer felt their scalp tingle (if they had a scalp).

Every move they made was within the Star Sage's calculations.

This level of calculation ability was truly monstrous.

"Star Sage."

"Hahaha, even with all your schemes, you cannot harm me."

"I still have a trump card I have never revealed."

The Necromancer suddenly burst into loud laughter.

"Once I escape."

"I will use my authority as the President of the Gospel Society to expel you from the Gospel Society."

A golden light suddenly erupted from the Necromancer's body; this was an invincible protective barrier that could last for thirty seconds.

And the Necromancer could use these thirty seconds to escape from here.

"You forced my hand; this is my ultimate trump card."

The Necromancer tore up the Teleportation Talisman in their hand, and their body instantly vanished from the spot.

"Fool."

"I was just bluffing you; I never intended to do anything to you at all."

"After all, I am currently in the middle of refining the Soul of the Leviathan Whale, turning it into my possession."

"If you had attacked and interrupted my refining of the Leviathan Whale at that moment, I would have been quite troubled."

"To think this fool actually ran away; it really exceeded my expectations."

"However, this time it did force out the Necromancer's trump card."

"The Necromancer's two subordinates were both left inside the Leviathan Whale, along with the Blood Pool the Necromancer refined, and the Blood-Colored Skeleton General inside it."

"Tsk tsk, this time the Necromancer has truly suffered a double loss."

"If you want to expel me, I naturally have no objections."

"After all, I am only a short time away from breaking through to the Ninth Rank."

"It is truly only one step away."

"I and my other two Clones have all broken through; by lending our breakthrough power to the main body, the main body will certainly be able to break through the bottleneck."

"As for quitting the Gospel Society, I have had this idea for a long time, I just hadn't executed it yet."

The Star Sage wondered if the main body had given the Necromancer a psychological Shadow, otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to scare the Necromancer away so smoothly.

"Phew, I need to tell my diligent martial nephew to control the Blood Pool and the Blood-Colored Skeleton King as soon as possible, to avoid them being summoned back by the Necromancer."

"Starry Sky Crow, go."

The Starry Sky Crow, transformed by the Star Sage, broke through layers of space and flew out.

Ye Bai was currently locked in a fierce battle with the Blood-Colored Skeleton King.

This guy was an Eighth Rank Exotic Beast and had the support of the Blood Pool.

Dahui charged in as the main attacker, with the Myriad-Change Butterfly and the Sunflower Fairy providing support from the sidelines.

They released Holy Light to shine down, weakening the power of the Blood-Colored Skeleton King.

Just then, the Starry Sky Crow appeared in front of Ye Bai.

Just as the Myriad-Change Butterfly was about to launch an attack, it was blocked by Ye Bai.

"Myriad-Change Butterfly, don't attack, this is my martial uncle's star spirit."

The Starry Sky Crow suddenly opened its beak, and the Star Sage's voice came through: "Haha, you recognized me."

"I have good news for you: I have driven the Necromancer away."

"That Heavy Water Skeleton King has been frozen by me."

"Leave the Heavy Water Skeleton King for me to deal with, and you take down the Blood Pool and the Blood-Colored Skeleton King."

"When you have time, give me a copy of the method for refining the Blood Pool."

"Do you understand?"

The Star Sage was one rank stronger than Ye Bai, and the situation was stronger than the person, so Ye Bai hurriedly nodded.

"No problem, thank you for your help, martial uncle."

"By the way, martial uncle, how are we going to get out later?"

"The surrounding space has been blocked by you."

Ye Bai suddenly asked the Star Sage.

"Wait until I finish refining the Soul of the Leviathan Whale first."

"I will give you a big gift later."

"I know how to break the Deep One's Barrier."

"I know that the songstress who died and came back to life can have an impact on the Deep Ones."

"I don't need to explain the rest of the matters to you one by one, do I?"

"Otherwise, I would think that you, my martial nephew, are a bit pitifully stupid."

The Starry Sky Crow turned into streaks of starlight and vanished before Ye Bai.

A meaningful smile appeared at the corners of Ye Bai's mouth.

"Did that coward of a Necromancer run away?"

"Or was he scared out of his wits and forced to flee by my senior uncle?"

"In this way, his two greatest trump cards have been dealt with by my senior uncle."

"Plus, the Heavy Water Skeleton King he painstakingly refined has fallen into my senior uncle's hands, while the Blood Pool and the Blood-colored Skeleton King remain inside the body of the Leviathan Whale."

"For me, this is a tremendous stroke of good fortune."

Ye Bai laughed.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony, Necromancer; I will take over your Blood-colored Skeleton Legion."

"This way, I will be able to put on an even more outstanding performance in the great battle at the Sea God Abyss."

"Blood Flood Dragon, devour the Necromancer's Blood Pool and seize control of the Blood-colored Skeleton King."

Facing this troublesome Blood-colored Skeleton King, Ye Bai had his own ideas.

Its combat power was quite shocking; having such a weapon of mass destruction in one's own hands was much more reassuring.
