Chapter 1215: Chapter 1211: The Erupting Little Black Crystal
The Death Sea of the entire An’nan Domain is a powerful array composed of undead. The array has ford a region of complete silence, and this region is a vast illusion.
After the sudden anomaly, Li Zhaojun, Sang Yuan, and other won rode their magical swords to stand before Ye Fan. At this mont, the massive blood-red ocean below seed as terrifying as the Abi Hell. The few small crystals hidden within Ye Fan’s body—small Red Crystal, small Lan Jing, and small Purple Crystal—all hurriedly nestled into Ye Fan’s embrace, driving away their fear with the comfort of his heartbeat and body warmth.
However, the small Black Crystal ford by the Evil Spirit Flag seed to awaken in these circumstances, no longer sleeping within Ye Fan’s storage bracelet. Instead, it flew out, hovering above Ye Fan’s head, and emitted a “woo” sound like a horn. The surrounding souls, who were in chaos trying to escape, seed summoned, all rushing toward the small Black Crystal.
The small Black Crystal emitted a black, enchanting glow. Although Li Zhaojun and the others could not see the surrounding undead, they could still feel the eerie and terrifying aura around them.
“Ye Fan, what’s happening?” Li Zhaojun approached, standing behind Ye Fan, nervously watching the events unfold before them.
Ye Fan watched countless undead gathering into the small Black Crystal’s body, unsure of how to answer Li Zhaojun. He hesitated briefly before saying, “It seems I have broken this undead array. The Black Crystal is the embodint of the Evil Spirit Flag, and she is currently absorbing countless undead from above the Death Sea.”
Lan Jing, maintaining the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman flying in the air with spiritual energy, exclaid in surprise, “How can this be?”
Lan Jing was no stranger to death, but had never seen sothing so eerily terrifying. With her perception, she could sense the presence of undead, as her origin power cos from her mother, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman. However, she could not see the specific forms of those undead as Ye Fan and the small Purple Crystal could.
“Let’s move away a bit. The Black Crystal is absorbing the undead, and there are too many undead around, which might affect us,” Ye Fan said, moving away with Li Zhaojun in harmony.
Sang Yuan and several other won followed, leaving the small Black Crystal in the eye of the undead array of the Death Sea to absorb those undead. Ye Fan did not know what result this would lead to. If the small Black Crystal absorbed enough undead, it might beco uncontrollable and instead pose a threat to him.
As the small Black Crystal absorbed more undead, a large number of undead escaped from the atmosphere above the Death Sea. Gradually, only endless blood-red and dead bones remained around the Death Sea. Suddenly, a chilling and terrifying voice erged from the seawater: “Who disturbs the peace here?”
The voice was shrill, but Ye Fan did not hear it with the Copper Tomb Mirror. Instead, he heard it with his ears. This voice should have been produced by a special dium, not the wailing of the undead.
Upon hearing this voice, Li Zhaojun and the others also drew their magical swords, preparing for battle.
Even Ye Fan felt that since he had broken the undead array, the being who laid this undead array should appear. He imagined the “being” as cultivators handed down from ancient tis. Even if those cultivators had ascended or passed away, there would still be their successors.
However, what appeared from the sea was not a living being but a massive undead.
The appearance of this undead was different from those previously absorbed by the small Black Crystal. It had a “substantial” body. Though called substantial, it was actually a body the undead assembled by sweeping up bones and decaying matter from the seawater with its power. Its inherent power remained as an intangible Spiritual Body.
The undead could control tangible objects, a phenonon Ye Fan had never witnessed before in his life. The yellow light emitted by the Copper Tomb Mirror shone intensely, indicating a formidable enemy before them.
“Insignificant humans, you are unworthy of being here!” The mighty undead stood thousands of ters tall, and the substantial body it ford spanned several kiloters. Countless bones and decaying matter rose skyward, blocking out the sun, and the stench from the sea assailed their senses, making Ye Fan want to quickly leave this sea of death.
Ye Fan said, “He shouldn’t have conscious awareness, so no matter what we say, he won’t hear it. Just pretend he’s a paper tiger.”
In this regard, Ye Fan was not wrong.
Although this undead looked terrifying, it lacked the five senses. It might track enemies based on power flow, but as long as Ye Fan enveloped their surroundings with a defensive net of Spiritual Energy to obscure the sll, the undead would flounder like a blind fly over the sea, unable to find the humans it intended to threaten.
Sang Yuan said, “His strength is formidable. I don’t know if we can defeat him.”
Even a person as powerful as an immortal like Sang Yuan dared not guarantee victory over this formidable undead. Ye Fan could understand that this undead was composed of countless other undead, essentially a conglorate. The voices it emitted were produced by the special collisions and friction of the bones and decaying matter it manipulated.
Ye Fan flashed a confident smile and used the Copper Tomb Mirror to transmit his voice back, saying, “Insignificant undead, the ti for your soul to scatter is now.”
Ye Fan’s voice reached the undead via two refractions from the Copper Tomb Mirror and the sea surface. While the undead could not hear human speech, it could hear the sound from the Copper Tomb Mirror. Upon hearing Ye Fan’s words, it imdiately swung its “arm,” and countless bones and decaying matter forming its arm surged toward the sound on the sea surface, mixed with the massive undead’s power; the strike was extrely powerful.
“Bang!” The ocean surface was struck by enormous force, sending water skyward. The undead hidden beneath the water that hadn’t escaped were now fleeing.
By this ti, Ye Fan and the others had retreated over ten kiloters away from the site of the incident. Even as the seawater soared tens of thousands of ters high, only a few drops fell, and before reaching within a kiloter of Ye Fan and the others, the heat from the Spiritual Energy had already evaporated them.
Ye Fan said, “Its power is imnse, and it knows how to harness the power of tangible objects. It is an incredibly intelligent undead. But thankfully, there doesn’t seem to be a controller behind it; it’s an independent entity, which actually makes it easier for us to handle.”
Failing to hit those mocking it, the undead roared in anger, “Insignificant humans, co out, and I will end your lives and absorb your souls as my feast!”
“Paper tiger,” Ye Fan scoffed.
Despite its power, this undead existed in a different mode from humans; it couldn’t track or sense humans.
Just then, the small Black Crystal suddenly expanded, transforming from a single crystal into a nebulous mist. The target of the small Black Crystal was none other than the massive undead before them.
“Look at that,” Li Zhaojun pointed, “It seems to want to devour that undead!”
“Hmm.” Ye Fan also sensed it; the small Black Crystal showed no intention of avoiding the massive undead. Instead, it charged forward as if to engage in a final battle with the undead.
Both the small Black Crystal and that gigantic undead had absorbed countless undead, leaving even Ye Fan uncertain about which one held more power.
