2423 Removing
Although the aura felt sowhat odd, it was impossible to completely eliminate it using only the Shrine of Bones.
But...
Who cares about that?
Not taking advantage of it would be foolish! D*mn it!
Soon, a dark vortex ford above Fang Heng's head as the purified aura continued to absorb.
Rows of ga prompts appeared rapidly.
[Hint: The player absorbed undead aura, gaining 92,300 grandmaster-level necromancy experience points.]
[Hint: The player absorbed undead aura, gaining 121,100 grandmaster-level necromancy experience points.]
[Hint: The player's grandmaster-level necromancy skill increased to Level 10.]
[Hint: The player absorbed undead aura, gaining 151,800 grandmaster-level necromancy experience points...]
Hmm?
Suddenly, Fang Heng sensed sothing else.
The icy aura contained within the undead energy...
As the undead energy was rapidly absorbed, the icy impurity within the undead aura beca increasingly distinct.
Even after purification by the Shrine of Bones, it was still the case.
Instead of being expelled after entering his body, the impurity ford an extrely small crystal in his sea of consciousness.
This was...
The crystal looked harmless and extrely fragile.
When it ca to the sea of consciousness, one had to be extra cautious.
Fang Heng temporarily stopped absorbing the aura of death energy, observing it for a mont. He was about to ask the death knight about the ice crystal when Li Shaoqiang stopped first.
Although Fang Heng had absorbed most of the aura in the space, the remaining amount was still sufficient for Tan Shuo and Li Shaoqiang to gain plenty and make a considerable profit.
The death knight noticed Li Shaoqiang and asked, "What's the matter? Why did you stop? Don't you need strength?"
He wanted to continue absorbing such a good opportunity!
But...
His current level of cultivation did not allow it.
"My academic level has already reached its peak, so..."
"Heh, the peak... you dare to speak of the peak with such insignificant strength..."
The death knight gently shook his head, extended his hand forward, and pointed vaguely at Li Shaoqiang.
Li Shaoqiang's pupils constricted suddenly.
What?!
The next mont, seeing the necromancy level-up ga hint flashing on his retina, excitent imdiately lit up in Li Shaoqiang's eyes.
Wow! This was incredible!
Master-level necromancy!
He had indeed misspoken earlier; when he referred to reaching the peak, he ant he had achieved the peak of interdiate necromancy, which was the maximum level.
Unexpectedly, with just a single gesture from the death knight, he had skipped directly from interdiate necromancy advancent to the high-tier state!
This was sothing that would have taken an ordinary person several years to achieve!
Li Shaoqiang was overjoyed.
"Thank you, Sir, for your gift."
"Everything is earned by you. Continue," The death knight waved his hand and then turned to Fang Heng, who had also stopped absorbing the aura of death energy, "Do you have any questions?"
"I want to know what the ice crystal condensing in the sea of consciousness is."
The death knight fixed his gaze on Fang Heng, and a hint of surprise seed to appear in the flickering blue flas.
"Interesting, you noticed the ice crystal?"
"Yes, what is it?" Fang Heng asked. "I sensed a cold aura within the absorbed aura. What exactly is this?"
"You can think of it as an attribute," the death knight explained calmly. "It's a freezing attribute granted by the Empress. The more you absorb, the more it will condense in the sea of consciousness. Don't worry, this is entirely beneficial and harmless to you. As the ice crystal gradually grows, it will eventually form an ice frost imprint. The imprint will add a frost attribute to most of your necromancy abilities."
13:08
The death knight continued, "You previously used the Shrine of Bones to remove so of it. This only slowed the condensation of the ice crystal in your sea of consciousness. Of course, necromancy energy is indeed easier to absorb, but the choice was yours."
Fang Heng fell silent.
So that's how it was.
A frost attribute.
It seed like a good thing!
The dual effect of death and freezing attributes.
However, at the mont, the ice crystal remaining in the sea of consciousness was only tiny fragnts and had not yet ford enough to produce any freezing attribute effect.
The death knight gazed at Fang Heng, "What? Don't you want to have the power to freeze souls? Or are you dissatisfied?"
"No, it's nothing."
Fang Heng closed his eyes again, focusing on absorbing the external soul power.
He resud absorption!
...
Half an hour later, the twelve gates slowly closed.
The surrounding soul power gradually thinned.
As the necromancy skill experience points rapidly increased, the crystalline dust in the sea of consciousness gradually condensed into a small crystal the size of a grain of rice.
Fang Heng and the others opened their eyes in turn and looked at the death knight seated on the throne.
"The reward from Empress Persephone ends here. During the ti you rested, invaders have entered the Empress's mausoleum," the death knight said solemnly. "They have desecrated the Empress's resting place, and they must be punished."
As he spoke, a dark gate appeared behind Fang Heng and the others, gradually solidifying.
[Hint: The player triggered a special mission-Death Knight's Assessnt.]
Mission na: Death Knight's Assessnt.
Mission difficulty: SSS.
Mission description: Players are required to enter the passage teleportation gate and repel the invaders who had entered Empress Persephone's mausoleum.
Mission requirents: Repel at least 40 invaders who entered Empress Persephone's mausoleum before your will is exhausted (team count).
[Warning: This mission carries significant danger.]
Seeing the ga hint displayed on his retina, Fang Heng's mind stirred.
Would they be entering that special world in the sa manner as before, through possession?
Compared to the last ti, the number of invaders to be repelled had increased more than threefold.
While he was pondering, the death knight waved his hand lightly again. Instantly, Fang Heng and the others felt a trendous force surge toward them and were forcefully thrown into the passageway behind the gate.
....
When Fang Heng opened his eyes again, he found himself in complete darkness.
Where was this...
Fang Heng quickly realized he was locked in a sealed space, his body wrapped in layers of bandages.
"Bang!!"
"Bang! Bang!!"
Explosions erupted from outside.
Fang Heng's mind stirred as he unleashed his ntal strength in an instant!
"Bang!!"
The wooden coffin imprisoning Fang Heng exploded into fragnts, and the bandages wrapped around him disintegrated into countless white pieces.
Fang Heng looked down at his body.
This wasn't the simple skeletal creature from last ti; now he had a physical body.
A corpse?
"So, has my strength increased compared to last ti?"
