Chapter 408: To Know One's Faults and Correct Them is the Greatest Virtue

~8 min read 1,555 words

Kurashita Enkai's pupils shrank violently, and a sense of extreme danger rushed straight to his brain.

He had no time to say anything and fled directly to the side.

But it was already too late; half of Ye Lin had brazenly self-destructed.

With a boom, a violent explosion occurred in the sky above the city.

Kurashita Enkai was flipped over entirely; although he wasn't injured, the shockwave of the explosion still caused the blood and Qi within his body to surge.

As for the group of people who had been flattering him just moments before, they were not so lucky; they were all blasted into fly ash by the self-destruction of half of Ye Lin, not even having time to let out a scream.

"Why are you still alive?"

Looking at the remaining half of Ye Lin, Kurashita Enkai's face was filled with an expression of disbelief, along with a trace of terror.

How could he still be alive after being cut in half? And he even talked about letting him deliver the finishing blow? What the hell is there to finish off now!

"Because of love."

Half of Ye Lin once again utilized the Necrotic Return, and countless undead creatures crawled out from the soil, their eye sockets glowing with a ghostly green fire, surrounding the city tightly.

He then waved the Human Emperor Flag, and the familiar army of souls appeared once more, rampaging toward the city before them.

Seeing the undead creatures and souls before him, an expression of sudden realization appeared in Kurashita Enkai's eyes.

"I understand now! You are a Necromancer. No wonder you were still alive after being cut in half; it seems you long ago refined your own body into an undead one!"

"Ah, yes, yes, yes!" Ye Lin nodded repeatedly.

A fighting spirit reignited in Kurashita Enkai's eyes; humans have an uncontrollable fear of the unknown.

It is just like how you might dare to face a hundred zombies while holding a machine gun with infinite ammo, but would you dare to walk into a funeral home full of paper effigies with opened eyes at midnight during the Ghost Festival?

This is the fear brought by the unknown.

After confirming that Ye Lin was a Necromancer, Kurashita Enkai's courage instantly grew.

"This time, I will mince you into meat paste and burn you to ashes with a fire; let's see how you resurrect then!"

Kurashita Enkai shouted angrily and charged toward Ye Lin, blade in hand.

"Great Sun Demon Slash!"

As a powerhouse of the Bright Moon realm, Kurashita Enkai's full-strength strike was undoubtedly terrifying.

The blade light was incomparably brilliant; in the pitch-black night, it was as if an extra sun had appeared, sweeping toward Ye Lin.

Ye Lin's figure was instantly swallowed and submerged by the blade light, without any ability to resist.

Seeing this, Kurashita Enkai finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he dared not lower his guard; the Necromancer profession was inherently incredibly bizarre.

Kurashita Enkai raised his blade again and slashed three times in succession at the spot where Ye Lin had just been!

After finishing these three slashes, Kurashita Enkai finally retracted his blade.

In his view, even a bizarre Necromancer would surely be reduced to nothing after being struck by him so many times.

But at this moment, a ghostly voice rang out in his ear.

"Keep going, are you no good? If you're no good, then you're no good; what's with the break?"

Kurashita Enkai was startled and, without hesitation, turned around and slashed!

A head flew into the sky; it was Ye Lin.

"Why are you still not dead?"

Kurashita Enkai was shocked, but then, as if he had thought of something, a look of greed suddenly erupted in the depths of his eyes.

"It's the Eternal Balance, right? That's it, only that Origin Ancient Artifact can grant someone an immortal body, and coincidentally, it is currently night!"

Kurashita Enkai was incredibly excited; this was an Origin Ancient Artifact!

One must know that the highest-level treasure of their Great Sang Empire was only a nine-star divine artifact, the Bronze Dragon Vein Cauldron.

If he could seize an Origin Ancient Artifact from Ye Lin, he could immediately ascend to the most elite circle of the Sang nation!

"Forget about those souls, hurry and surround him, don't let him escape!"

At Kurashita Enkai's command, all the job-changers in the city rushed toward Ye Lin.

Over a hundred job-changers surrounded Ye Lin, each with the strength of level 70 or above, and three of them were clearly in the Starry Sky realm!

Originally, they had all been blocking the army of souls from the Human Emperor Flag in the city; with them there, the soul army could hardly make any progress.

But now, they had all been pulled away by Kurashita Enkai, and the ordinary people in the city instantly suffered; they had no ability at all to resist that wolf-like and tiger-like army of souls.

Kurashita Enkai turned a deaf ear to the screams coming from the city.

Compared to an Origin Ancient Artifact, what did the lives of people in a mere city matter? Anyway, so many had already been slaughtered, one more city wouldn't make a difference.

"Hand over the Origin Ancient Artifact, and I can leave you with an intact corpse!" Kurashita Enkai said coldly.

"Can you change your lines? My ears are almost calloused from hearing that." Ye Lin dug his ear in resignation.

Why does everyone want to rob him once they find out he has the Eternal Balance? Don't they ever consider whether they can actually win?

"But I still want to thank you for gathering everyone together for me. I'm in a good mood today, so you can choose how you want to die. You choose?"

As soon as Ye Lin finished speaking, Kurashita Enkai stabbed his heart through with a blade.

"Today, the one who should die is you!" Kurashita Enkai's face was ferocious.

"Not choosing? Then I'll help you choose. In my opinion, you Sang people deserve to be struck by five heavenly thunders."

Ye Lin raised his hand, and thunderclouds gathered above the nine heavens. Since Kurashita Enkai had conveniently stabbed his heart, he didn't need to trigger the near-death bonus of the Canglan Ring himself.

"Forbidden Spell: World-Extinguishing Wild Thunder!"

"Wood-Element Orthodox Thunder! Fire-Element Yang Thunder! Water-Element Yin Thunder! Metal-Element Tribulation Thunder! Earth-Element Nether Thunder! Come to me, all of you!"

Ye Lin sacrificed all five of his internal organs to summon the Five-Element Divine Thunders from the nine heavens.

Under the exaggerated amplification of the Human Emperor Flag, thunders of five distinct attributes—green, red, black, gold, and yellow—descended from the sky, unleashing indiscriminate slaughter.

Job-changers below the third realm could not withstand this strike from Ye Lin at all; they were directly charred into corpses and fell from the sky.

After one round of Five-Element Divine Thunder, only Kurashita Enkai and the three Starry Sky realm experts remained standing, though everyone was already covered in wounds.

"This time, it's the Doutian Divine Thunder, oh~"

Before they could even catch their breath, Ye Lin had already released another forbidden spell; a terrifying world-extinguishing thunder dragon descended from the sky, diving down!

Those three Starry Sky realm experts could not block such a terrifying attack at all; they were swallowed whole by the thunder dragon and turned into three corpses under the violent power of the thunder.

In just a few exchanges, only two living people remained on the field: Ye Lin and Kurashita Enkai.

"You are not a Necromancer at all! You are a Forbidden Spellcaster! You are that Ye Lin who ravaged the Sacrificial God Prison of my Great Sang Empire! You are that beast!" Kurashita Enkai finally recognized the identity of the person opposite him.

"How can you use such foul language? That is a very impolite behavior!"

Ye Lin raised his hand again; this time, chaotic energy began to surge above the sky.

The strongest version of the World-Extinguishing Wild Thunder: Chaos Divine Thunder!

Boom!

The brilliant golden Chaos Divine Thunder blasted Kurashita Enkai until his skin was torn and flesh mangled, emitting a foul, burnt stench.

Ye Lin was somewhat surprised; a Bright Moon realm powerhouse was indeed extraordinary. To take a full-strength Chaos Divine Thunder head-on and not die!

But it didn't matter; Ye Lin had no other merits, but he did have plenty of lives.

If one shot doesn't work, then a second, a third, a fourth, a fifth!

Just as the fifth Chaos Divine Thunder was about to fall, Kurashita Enkai suddenly shouted loudly.

"Wait!"

At this moment, Kurashita Enkai was already in a state of critical injury and dying, and the long blade in his hand had already been snapped.

Thump.

He knelt directly on the ground, and two tear tracks appeared on his pitch-black face.

"I beg you... don't kill me... I don't want to die... I am willing to be your dog, please spare my life..."

Seeing this, Ye Lin couldn't help but feel a bit of pity. He took out the string of prayer beads and burned one medium bead and three small beads black.

"Amitabha, how benevolent, how benevolent. Benefactor Kurashita Enkai, your ability to recognize your mistakes and correct them is truly a great virtue."
