Chapter 241

A god had exploited a loophole in the rules to cultivate death qi here, accelerating the Lich's recovery.

But all of this spiraled out of control after Chen Ping intervened.

The Lich never expected that when Chen Ping said he would return, he actually did—only a month later.

And he had brought along several terrifying legions so powerful they were completely unreasonable!

Third-Stage units capable of counter-killing Sixth-Stage troops!

The hundreds of thousands of undead in the army were like fat on a chopping block before them; they could be sliced however they pleased!

The Lich's long-prepared plan was destroyed in one fell swoop.

If the Lich were a living person, he would have died of a heart attack from anger by now.

Thus, he resolved to use the god's power to forcibly harness the massive amount of death qi.

Before this, the god had even shielded the abnormal fluctuations here for him and destroyed Chen Ping's artifact.

No matter how you looked at it, the scales of victory had fallen to his side of the ground!

Yet that brat had figured out everything behind it with just a single glance!

What kind of perverted and keen insight was this!

At this moment, the Lich felt the last string of reason in his mind snap completely.

The Jiuzhou Legion had already assumed a posture for an all-out assault.

That mysterious heroic spirit also erupted with his most powerful strength—it was clearly an Extraordinary-level aura!

F*** your mother!!!

The Lich wanted nothing more than to rush back, grab Chen Ping by the collar, and ask him who exactly was breaking the rules and who exactly was cheating.

"Inverted Justice" was a one-time effect skill; as long as the effect faded, the death qi would return to the Lich.

But this required time—at least a minute.

Sixty seconds.

The Lich first had to survive sixty seconds of the Jiuzhou Legion's life-or-death assault.

Could he do it?

The Lich had completely lost his mind.

"Let's die together!!!"

"Forbidden Undead Magic! Super-Stage Skill! Soul Rend!!!"

The Lich turned around, his hair disheveled like a mad demon, fresh blood gushing wildly from his eye sockets.

The crystal skull continuously devoured the Lich's blood.

This was the last bit of blood essence from a demigod Lich, containing extremely powerful energy.

The entire crystal skull bloomed with a dazzling red light, staining half the horizon red.

Everyone felt their hair stand on end; at this moment, it felt as if they were in the netherworld of hell!

Milan's heart hammered wildly as she attempted to intercept the Lich's spell.

However, Soul Rend was a Super-Stage spell, intangible and formless, locking on purely through the soul!

It was driven by a demigod Lich's deepest obsession and the last of his life's essence.

And then released through a true artifact.

Milan was merely a heroic spirit with Extraordinary strength; she had not yet truly recovered to the level of the so-called Three Pillars.

How could she stop it?

At this very moment, the Lich felt an unprecedented resonance with Lu Fei.

That obsession to kill Chen Ping was truly like a surging river, endless and unstoppable!!!

With his death qi reversed, he had less than Extraordinary strength and simply couldn't withstand the bombardment of the Jiuzhou Legion and Milan.

Resisting head-on meant certain death.

It was better to seek life through death, kill Chen Ping first, and then fight for that slim chance of survival!

He was betting on the fact that, besides Chen Ping, no one knew how to thoroughly kill a Lich!

A terrifying palpitation appeared in everyone's hearts, even though they were not the Lich's targets.

This was the deterrence brought by a Super-Stage spell.

Yet, the Lich's expression froze on his face.

He saw a halo of light emerge on Chen Ping's body, isolating him completely within it.

The scythe wielded by the Grim Reaper, formed by Soul Rend, slashed directly onto the halo.

It shattered into pieces!

Absolute Defense.

The one-month period had arrived.

The cooldown had ended, and Chen Ping had another chance to avoid death.

The Lich's hands dropped, and the crystal skull clattered onto the ground...

A string of profanities, heard by almost no one, exploded from his mouth...

The Jiuzhou Legion charged out ferociously!

Milan took the lead!

PS: My hands are about to break. Over 30,000 words today. What kind of ruthless people are those who do 30,000 a day on the Heavenly Rankings...

156: World Announcement, Rewards after Offering Three Sticks of Incense

Every member of the Jiuzhou Legion charged out, filled with surging rage.

The Lich skeleton hadn't even had time to cast a few spells on himself.

An arrow shot from afar pierced through his head.

The arrowhead was made of divine metal fused with holy potion.

The skeleton's bones, comparable to metal, were as fragile as tofu before it.

Then, a blade flash flickered, his left arm flew high into the air and shattered into pieces.

A long spear pierced into his right arm, the Azure Dragon pressure upon it suppressing the flow of death qi.

The Lich's field of vision was filled with one figure after another.

Soon, he couldn't even see the sky.

Countless legion soldiers unleashed their most powerful attacks.

The Lich was plowed through again and again.

Until the last bit of his remains was ignited by the Blood Spirit Zhu Que's Blood Spirit Fire.

Completely turned into nothingness.

With the Lich dead, all the undead in the entire North Continent instantly lost control.

The undead gathering in the distance stopped their movements, standing frozen like stone statues, unable to move.

At this point, only thirty seconds had passed since Inverted Justice was activated.

Chen Ping, riding the silver-white Qilin, crossed over the Jiuzhou Legion and landed with Milan on that stone altar.

After all the death qi was drained, the altar was strangely clean.

Milan reached out to touch the altar, then shook her head.

"All relevant traces have been wiped away..."

"It's fine, I already have a guess anyway."

Chen Ping stepped onto the altar nonchalantly and walked to the front of the brazier.

Ten seconds passed.

Chen Ping picked up the heart that had been refined into an unknown material.

Usually, a Lich's phylactery is sealed in a special treasure box and hidden in an unknown place.

But this demigod Lich wanted to abandon everything to trade for a chance to start over.

Naturally, he wouldn't feel at ease leaving his phylactery outside.

On one hand, he feared his opponent would take advantage of his absence to strike at his phylactery.

On the other hand, he also feared that if the phylactery were missing, he wouldn't be a complete individual, causing problems when the trial ended.

The phylactery was the foundation of a Lich.

But for a demigod-level Lich's phylactery, what way was there to handle it?
