Chapter 205: Fourth Tier Abilities Unleashed

~7 min read 1,234 words

What I've been waiting for is for you all to come over.

Looking at the undead creatures slowly approaching around him, Su Hao's mouth corner slightly rose, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

Currently, among the undead creatures around him, none are Supernatural Grade First Rank, and there are hardly any Supernatural Grade Second Rank.

Whether undead knights, liches, or bone dragons, they are basically Supernatural Grade Third Tier monsters.

These undead creatures are not fools; they all possess relatively high intelligence.

Since they have already planned to concentrate firepower and eliminate Su Hao first, it is naturally impossible for them to come one by one like in the story of the Calabash Brothers rescuing their grandfather.

The undead creatures beside Su Hao already constitute nearly half of the high-tier combat power on the battlefield.

The reason they have not launched an attack yet is that they intend to first surround Su Hao, ensuring a one-shot kill and giving him no chance to escape.

However, what they do not know is that Su Hao is also waiting for them to approach.

This is a battle involving over ten thousand combatants, and the battlefield area is very large.

If Su Hao alone tried to eliminate these Third Tier high-end combatants one by one, even if the corrupted sources and spreaders were all dead, he would still not be able to kill many Third Tier undead creatures.

Therefore, Su Hao acted so ostentatiously in order to attract as many Third Tier undead creatures as possible.

Then, he would leave those Third Tier undead creatures that had surrounded him forever in this place.

As for whether he could achieve this, Su Hao was full of confidence.

Although his current Supernatural Grade is only Second Rank, he possesses quite a few Third and Fourth Tier abilities.

Moreover, he holds a Death Scythe, a weapon imbued with deathly divine power, which poses no problem against some Third Tier undead creatures.

Since both Su Hao and the undead creatures share the same goal, the process proceeded extremely smoothly.

Before long, Su Hao was surrounded by Third Tier undead creatures, with three layers inside and three layers outside.

"Your speed is really too slow; even my great-grandmother walking would be faster than you."

Seeing that the timing was about right, Su Hao glanced at these undead creatures, said no more nonsense, and launched his attack with the swiftness of thunder before one could cover their ears.

"Crimson Touch!"

Long before these undead creatures approached, Su Hao poured his mental power into the Blood Magic Book, and on a blank page a faint blood-red rune appeared, in a state of readiness.

At this moment, as Su Hao communicated with the Crimson Touch rune in his mind, that faint blood-red rune instantly turned into a tentacle-like shape, floating above the blank page.

The next moment.

Around the undead creatures, fifty pools of bright red blood appeared.

Crimson tendrils about five meters in diameter and over fifty meters long stretched out from these blood pools, lashing out violently at all the surrounding undead creatures.

These are all Supernatural Grade Fourth Tier Crimson Tendrils; even with Su Hao's current physique, being struck by them would instantly shred his body.

Most of these surrounding undead creatures have physiques even weaker than Su Hao's.

Under one round of lashing from the fifty Crimson Tendrils, only the sound of 'bang bang bang' could be heard continuously; instantly a large area was cleared, with many undead creatures dead or wounded.

Even incorporeal liches, when struck by the Crimson Tendrils, all let out a simultaneous wail, their spirit bodies showing a tendency to dissipate. These Crimson Tendrils are all composed of Supernatural Grade Fourth Tier Crimson Essence Blood, and they can inflict damage even on spirit bodies.

However, most of these surrounding undead creatures are Supernatural Grade Third Rank, numbering in the hundreds to thousands; relying solely on the Crimson Tendrils to eliminate them is obviously unrealistic.

Taken by surprise, after being lashed by the Crimson Tendrils once, they quickly adjusted their stance, simultaneously defending against the tendrils' lashes and launching a fierce counterattack against them.

Even though the Crimson Tendrils are made of Crimson Essence Blood, they cannot disappear before their internal energy is completely exhausted.

However, under the attack of so many Supernatural Grade Third Tier undead creatures, the energy inside the Crimson Tendrils began to rapidly decrease, and their color noticeably faded.

Seeing this, the undead creatures' soul fire burned even more fiercely, as if they saw hope of victory, and their attacks became more vigorous.

After being lashed by that round of Crimson Tendrils, these undead creatures were all startled, and in their hearts they simultaneously felt a sense of relief.

They all thought, 'Fortunately these fifty Crimson Tendrils are not lashing at the same spot; otherwise even the strongest bone dragon would probably be reduced to a pile of broken bones.'

Now that they have hope of dealing with these Crimson Tendrils, they naturally let out a sigh of relief, and their attacks became even more vigorous.

At the same time, their aversion to the Crimson Tendrils lessened somewhat, and they began to divert some forces to attack Su Hao.

In response, Su Hao remained calm.

From the start, he did not expect to rely solely on the Crimson Tendrils to eliminate all the surrounding undead creatures.

"Bloodthirst Soul Fire!"

Looking at the undead creatures rapidly approaching him, Su Hao lightly snapped his fingers; the Blood Magic Book automatically turned a page, and on the blank page appeared a rune resembling a flame, with a white center and red outer edge.

The next moment.

On one Crimson Tendril, a small cluster of flame appeared, resembling the rune.

Initially, this flame cluster was only the size of a human head.

But soon, after absorbing the Fourth Tier Crimson Essence Blood inside the Crimson Tendril, it spread outward at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Before long, the entire Crimson Tendril was ignited.

Furthermore, as the Crimson Tendrils continued to wave, the remaining forty-nine were also ignited by the Bloodthirst Soul Fire.

Of course, during this process, it was inevitable that some undead creatures would come into contact with the Bloodthirst Soul Fire on the Crimson Tendrils; the soul fire at their cores would instantly be ignited by the Bloodthirst Soul Fire, emitting mournful wails.

No matter what means they employed, they could not extinguish the Bloodthirst Soul Fire; ultimately their soul fire was burned away, and they collapsed to the ground, completely motionless.

As all fifty Crimson Tendrils ignited with Bloodthirst Soul Fire, the surrounding undead creatures had no remaining capacity to resist.

In the end, they were either lashed to death by the Crimson Tendrils or had their soul fire burned away by the Bloodthirst Soul Fire.

The undead creatures that rushed to Su Hao's side fared no better.

Although Su Hao had consecutively used two Fourth Tier abilities, his mental power was nearly exhausted.

However, his stamina remained; wielding the Death Scythe and controlling the four bone hands behind him, any approaching undead creature could not withstand a single move and was slain on the spot.

At the same time, large numbers of Tyrannical Demon Oxen and Demon Flame Pumpkin Heads charged out of the forest, entered this battlefield, and became entangled in combat with the undead creatures.
