Chapter 881: Lingyun's Speculation

~7 min read 1,208 words

Elf Temple.

Seeing Lingyun arrive, Andiya bowed slightly to him: "Mr. Lingyun."

"No need to be so formal." Lingyun smiled faintly and waved his hand at Andiya. "By the way, how is the situation on the God-Given Continent now?"

"The situation is not very good. It seems that signs of revival have appeared in all the corpses across the entire continent. We suspect that the mastermind behind this situation likely possesses power that exceeds our imagination." There was a trace of worry in Andiya's eyes.

On the God-Given Continent, there is a barrier between the living and the dead. Judging from the current situation on the continent, these rioting undead are clearly trying to drag the entire continent into the Hell of death.

"Our thought is that behind this Undead Calamity, there might exist a god who has mastered the Death Force!" Oufeina took a deep breath and said. "But there are no god-level undead appearing on the continent right now, and we have no direct evidence to prove this."

"Not necessarily; things might be even more troublesome than you imagine!" Lingyun looked at the virtual Projection of the God-Given Continent in front of him, his tone carrying a hint of gravity.

"Things are more troublesome than we imagined?" Hearing Lingyun say this, the people present felt a sense of foreboding rise in their hearts simultaneously.

"I have seen gods who mastered the Death Force in the Ancient God Era. If it were a single god who mastered the Death Force, they would not possess the ability to spread the Undead Calamity to the entire God-Given Continent." Lingyun's fingers tapped lightly on the table. "With this situation appearing now, there are two possibilities. One is that more than one Death God has appeared on the God-Given Continent; the other is that an existence surpassing the gods has appeared on the God-Given Continent, and this existence happens to have mastered the Death Force!"

Hearing Lingyun's words, the three people present could not help but feel a jolt in their hearts. If there were more than one Death God, they would not be afraid, as the God Race also has many combatants at the god rank. But if it were an existence surpassing the god rank, they would be at a loss; in that situation, it would not be something that could be settled by human-wave tactics.

Lingyun could not help but recall the chaotic star signs of the God-Given Continent he had seen earlier. It was clear that a powerful intruder, hidden very deeply, had appeared in this world. However, one thing was certain: the state of the entity that had intruded into the God-Given Continent was definitely not very good right now, otherwise, it would not have used such a secretive method.

Thinking of this, Lingyun's heart skipped a beat. An existence surpassing the gods of the God-Given Continent who mastered the Death Force, and whose current state is not very good—why does this situation sound a bit familiar?

"Ruoxi!" Following Lingyun's call, Ruoxi appeared instantly in front of Lingyun.

"Who is she?" Seeing Ruoxi hanging on Lingyun as soon as she appeared, Oufeina could not help but frown slightly.

When Ruoxi appeared, she had not felt the slightest spatial fluctuation, which made her feel vigilant.

"She is Ruoxi, Lingyun's younger sister." Seeing Oufeina's vigilant expression, Aiweier introduced her.

"Brother, is something the matter?" Ruoxi asked Lingyun with some confusion.

Lingyun opened his hand, and a wisp of gray airflow appeared in his palm; this was what he had just separated from the body of that giant skeleton.

"Ruoxi, use this power to compare it with Moqi's power and see if there is any connection between the two."

"Understood!" Ruoxi took the Death Force from Lingyun's hand, gave him a playful military salute, and then ducked back into the Cloud Realm.

"Lingyun, did you discover something?" Watching the disappearing Ruoxi, Aiweier asked with some curiosity.

"Just a preliminary suspicion; there is no definitive evidence yet." Lingyun waved his hand and said. "Now we can only wait for the comparison results from Ruoxi's side. If the person we have to face this time is Moqi, I fear we have a tough battle to fight."

"Moqi?" There was a hint of curiosity in Oufeina's tone.

"That's right, the Underworld King of the End—Moqi, a dangerous existence capable of dragging a world into death. I am just a bit puzzled now: if Moqi invaded this world, why did this world not issue an alarm?" Lingyun's tone carried a trace of doubt.

"An alarm?"

"That's right, you should know that there is more than one world in this universe besides the God-Given Continent. And Moqi is equivalent to a wanted criminal among the various worlds. If the God-Given Continent were invaded by his power, it should have sent a distress signal to other worlds." Lingyun's tone carried a hint of confusion. "Unless there is some hidden story behind this."

"A wanted criminal of the worlds?" There was a trace of shock in Oufeina's tone.

"Correct, this guy is a quite dangerous existence. If he were in his prime, we would never be his match even if we all went up together. However, he was severely wounded some time ago and was almost on the verge of extinction; now he is using various means to restore his strength."

"Various means? What kind of means?"

"The method Moqi uses most often to restore his strength is to induce a world toward decay. Look, does the God-Given Continent look like this situation now?"

"It does look a bit like it." Aiweier nodded.

"Moreover, commanding the undead is a common method for that guy, which is why I suspected him. However, until the results come out, everything is just speculation. As long as we wait for Ruoxi's comparison results, we can be certain." Lingyun said.

Hearing Lingyun's words, the three people present also nodded; after all, Lingyun had said earlier that this was merely his speculation, and the real result had not yet appeared before them.

Lingyun looked at the giant sand table placed on the table, which was covered with gray flags of various sizes. Each gray flag represented an Undead Army. The color of the flag represented the strength of the Undead Legion, while the size represented their scale.

This sand table was the latest tool developed by the Elf Kingdom to deal with this Undead Calamity. The one in the Elf Temple was the main board, while sub-boards were placed in other command posts fighting the Undead Legions. All the sand tables were interconnected; as long as one sand table changed, it would be fed back to the others. It was precisely by relying on the command of this sand table that most of the troop movements of the Undead Calamity were grasped, allowing everyone to deploy corresponding tactics without the front lines completely collapsing under the undead's offensive.

Just looking at the dense flags on the sand table, one could imagine how massive the scale of this Undead Calamity was and how serious the situation was.

Although the Orc Empire was not included in this sand table, almost every area shown on the current sand table had been invaded by the undead.
