Necromancer, summon skeletons, practice the Heaven-Swallowing Magic Skill

Lu Ming flew through the magic mountains. His speed was so fast that all the monsters and adventurers along the way were shocked.

The powerful aura made the monsters shrink aside, while the adventurers stopped and looked up at the mysterious powerful man flying in the air, their awe evident in words.

In the magic continent, those who can fly in the air are all powerful people who have reached the level of magician. Such strength is enough to make people look up to them.

Half an hour later, Lu Ming landed at the edge of the Monster Mountain Range. In order to avoid causing unnecessary commotion, he chose a deserted place and landed quietly, restraining his breath and blending into the ranks of ordinary pedestrians.

He walked through the forest and reached the border of Sunset City, then took a magic circle back to his college city.

Walking on the familiar streets, Lu Ming felt an unprecedented sense of strangeness.

The whispers and conversations of the crowd continued to reach his ears, and one piece of news was like a bolt from the blue, causing him to pause.

"Have you heard? The powerful mage of the Liu family has fallen!"

"Is it true? He is the pillar of the Liu family!"

"Alas, things are unpredictable. It is said that it was an accident that happened while exploring ancient ruins. But who can say for sure? Maybe there is someone behind the scenes who is fanning the flames."

"The Liu family is in trouble now. Several big families took advantage of the opportunity to attack. Overnight, almost all of the Liu family's assets were divided up."

"Poor Liu Ruyan, her family has suffered such a tragedy, how can a girl like her bear it?"

……

When Lu Ming heard these conversations, he couldn't help but feel a complicated emotion in his heart.

Unexpectedly, he attended the Liu family's dinner a few days ago. The Liu family was so prosperous at that time, but now it has declined and disappeared in just a few days.

On the street, people were walking in twos and threes. Some were shaking their heads and sighing, while others were talking in low voices. Everyone's face showed shock and regret at the news.

In front of some shops, several businessmen were gathered together, discussing the impact of the Liu family's changes on the market.

In the teahouse on the corner, several old men sipped tea and talked in low voices about the Liu family's former glory and current decline.

Although such things happen every day in the magical continent, the events of the Liu family are still somewhat regrettable.

Lu Ming had a pretty good impression of Liu Ruyan, and the two of them could barely be considered friends.

In order to find out what was going on, Lu Ming changed direction and did not return to the academy. Instead, he went to the branch of the Kvothe Chamber of Commerce to find Lilith.

As the leader of this killer organization, Lilith is naturally well-informed.

……

The Kwart Chamber of Commerce branch, private office on the second floor.

There, Lilith stood beside Lu Ming, looking respectful and cautious.

"Lilith, I need to know every detail about the Liu family, especially the whereabouts of Liu Ruyan." Lu Ming stated his purpose without hesitation.

Lilith nodded slightly, her tone carrying a hint of seriousness: "Master, the Liu family incident was indeed a carefully planned disaster."

"There is the shadow of the imperial family behind this, as well as the conspiracy of several large families. They hired multiple assassin organizations, including us, to set traps and destroy the pillars of the Liu family in one fell swoop."

"The royal family is involved too?"

Lu Ming frowned, somewhat unexpectedly.

It seems that the Liu family’s affairs are not as simple as they seem.

At the same time, based on some clues, Lilith believed that the imperial royal family was involved. Perhaps the magician of the Liu family offended the other party for some reason, so he was targeted.

"Where is Liu Ruyan? Is she safe now?" Lu Ming asked, his eyes revealing his deep concern for his friend.

"Ms. Liu Ruyan was in the academy at the time. She wanted to return to the Liu family, but was stopped by the academy's top management."

"Our intelligence shows that those families dare not act rashly inside the academy, and they are only keeping a close watch on the outside." Lilith replied, "However, Miss Liu Ruyan was very smart. She used space magic to leave the academy and finally appeared in a city near the Magic Beast Mountain Range, and then disappeared."

Lu Ming frowned and fell into deep thought.

Seeing this, Lilith added, "Master, don't worry. In addition to our assassin organization, there are also some forces looking for Liu Ruyan. As long as there is any new information, I will inform you in time."

Lu Ming nodded and was very satisfied with Lilith.

After chatting for a few more words, he got up and returned to the college.

Although Lu Ming is now a powerful mage, he does not feel proud or complacent. He is just like an ordinary freshman, mingling among the students with no ripples in his heart.

In addition, he broke through to the Demon Pill Realm and used the secret magic of the Demon Race to conceal his own aura. Unless he was a god-level strong man, even a Saint Realm strong man would find it difficult to detect him.

Back in the dormitory, Lu Ming quickly closed the doors and windows to ensure his privacy.

He took a deep breath and whispered to the empty room, "Now, it's time to see the rewards that come with the breakthrough."

He closed his eyes, and his mental power poured into the space ring of the Demon Emperor Tuntian like water.

With the awakening of the Demon Pill Realm, the restrictions in the ring gradually melted away, and a larger space opened up to him, and the treasures within it far exceeded his imagination.

Lu Ming discovered that the treasure house inside the ring was filled with countless rare items.

Several top-grade magic stone veins lay quietly in a corner, emitting an alluring light.

A medicinal field where various rare medicinal herbs grow. They emit a faint fragrance and each one is priceless.

In addition, there are top-grade equipment specially designed for the Demon Pill Realm, as well as countless top-grade elixirs and skills, piled up in the corner as if they were free.

It seems like a small treasure house, waiting for its owner to discover it.

Lu Ming's eyes widened. He had never seen such a rich collection.

These are the private collections of the Demon Emperor. Even the lowest grade is of top quality. Their value is high enough to drive any strong man crazy.

If such a treasure were placed in the demon world, it would be enough to support the foundation of a large demon sect, and even trigger a bloody battle.

Lu Ming was immersed in the treasures in the space ring, and every item amazed him.

He looked at those elixirs, feeling their life-like pulses, his heart filled with awe.

"Each of these elixirs contains unimaginable breath of life. They are like living legends." He muttered to himself, his eyes flashing with admiration for the miracles of nature.

His eyes flickered, and he looked at the top-grade equipment and elixirs again. Lu Ming's tone was full of disbelief: "Top-grade equipment, elixirs, and skills... This is simply like a dream. If I hadn't experienced it myself, I would never believe it."

Recalling the past days, Lu Ming was filled with emotion.

Before breaking through the Demon Pill Realm, he only obtained the inheritance of formations and alchemy, without any substantial resource assistance, which forced him to go to the Demon Beast Mountain Range in person and go through hardships.

But now, everything is different.

"This may be a test from the Sky-Devouring Demon Emperor, aimed at training my independence and tenacity." Lu Ming understood clearly in his heart. He knew that every challenge is a step towards growth.

After breaking through the Demon Pill Realm, Lu Ming finally reaped rich rewards.

He realized that these resources would completely change his path of cultivation.

He no longer needed to worry about the scarcity of magic stones, nor did he have to look for substitutes. He could practice any secret techniques, formations, or even refine elixirs as he pleased to improve his strength.

Happiness came too suddenly, and Lu Ming could hardly believe his good luck. His heart was filled with indescribable joy and gratitude. He took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and began to count these precious resources.

"There are eight top-grade magic stone veins in total, and one top-grade medicine garden, where all the plants growing are top-grade spiritual medicines."

Lu Ming counted them, and was shocked. "These spiritual medicines are extremely precious in the Demon Realm for any Demon Cultivator at the Demon Pill level, but in the Demon Emperor Ring, they are everywhere like weeds. The number is staggering."

Lu Ming spent a long time counting and finally confirmed that there were a total of 100,000 top-grade spiritual medicines in the medicine garden, which was more than enough even if he used them lavishly.

"There are also various elixirs and weapons and equipment, all of which are top-grade." Lu Ming continued, "Among them, there are 100,000 bottles of elixirs for increasing cultivation, 30,000 bottles of elixirs for cultivating the soul, and 10,000 to 20,000 bottles of various elixirs for healing."

Faced with these complete varieties of top-grade elixirs, Lu Ming was filled with emotion.

He believed that these pills were inexhaustible and he didn't need to spend time refining them.

“That medicinal field full of top-grade spiritual medicines has become a decoration and is of no use at all.” Lu Ming thought to himself, “From now on, I can only use it as a garden. When I have nothing to do, I can enjoy the beautiful scenery and this generous gift from the Devouring Demon Emperor.”

After counting the spiritual medicines, Lu Ming turned his attention to the secret inheritance in the space ring.

Just like other items, the magic pill-level formations, alchemy recipes, and other secret techniques left by the Demon Emperor are all top-grade without exception.

But among the many secretaries, a book on the best dual cultivation method particularly attracted Lu Ming's attention.

"Great, I've finally gotten what I've been waiting for!" Lu Ming was very excited. "With this dual cultivation technique, I can practice with Elena!"

Lu Ming had been coveting Elena's body for a long time. If it wasn't for the purpose of maximizing the effectiveness of the Extreme Yin Demon Body, he would have taken it long ago.

Now that she had the dual cultivation technique, Elena could practice magic just like him.

With the large amount of resources accumulated in the space ring, it won’t be long before he can break through to the Demon Pill Realm.

The Extreme Yin Demonic Body is the strongest physique of the furnace cauldron. If Lu Ming encounters a bottleneck in a certain realm in the future, Elena will become a panacea to help Lu Ming break through.

As for Selina, she and Lilith can also practice this dual cultivation magic skill.

Although they do not have special physiques and the effect of dual cultivation with them is a little worse, it is still helpful to Lu Ming.

“In this way, our forces will be more closely integrated and we can jointly withstand the storms of the future.”

Thinking of this, Lu Ming's heart was filled with anticipation.

With his current cultivation, he is able to contend with any great mage-level warrior. If he adds the magic pill-level formation and the massive treasures in the ring, as long as the god-level warrior does not come out, he will have enough confidence to fight even against a sanctuary-level opponent.

Therefore, as his strength increased, Lu Ming was no longer as cautious as before about the secrets of magic cultivation.

Having said that, he still maintained due caution.

"For safety reasons, even if I pass this dual cultivation technique to them, I must explain clearly that it is a special cultivation method from ancient times."

“Perhaps, by then, everything will fall into place and the truth will be revealed.”

In order to avoid causing unnecessary suspicion and panic, Lu Ming would not directly reveal that this was an inheritance from the demon world.

At least he will keep this secret until he breaks through to the god level and becomes the strongest person in the magic world.
