Necromancer: A New Era

The sudden change, accompanied by the strange voice floating in the void, made Lina's heartbeat suddenly accelerate. She couldn't help but pull Tang Yue's cloak. Tang Yue's mental power quietly spread out, exploring the abnormal situation around him. On the stone platform not far away, a ghostly soul quietly emerged, looking down at the two of them from above, or more accurately, staring at Tang Yue closely.

Tang Yue was not surprised, because since he entered the Forbidden Mountain Range, this soul had been secretly observing him. He guessed that perhaps because he felt that he was no match for the enemy, this soul was looking for some kind of opportunity.

Feeling that there was no great threat, Tang Yue began to look around. At this moment, they were in a solemn sacrificial hall. On the east wall hung a huge scroll. The figures in the scroll were looming, as if telling an ancient story. On the sacrificial altars around, huge stone plates lay quietly, covered with dried dark red blood. The edges of the stone plates were irregular, as if they were torn by a powerful force, and the blood formed strange patterns on the stone plates. In one of the stone plates, there was even a jade-white dry bone. Tang Yue, who was proficient in necromancy, could tell at a glance that this was definitely not a human skeleton.

On the main altar directly below the huge scroll, a humanoid sarcophagus stood, which looked at least three meters tall. The soul body was suspended above the sarcophagus, exuding a mysterious aura. Tang Yue quickly chanted the spell, and the Dark Flame Technique was activated instantly, and the purple flames whistled towards the soul body. However, the soul body dodged the attack lightly, and the purple fireball exploded in the void, and the scattered flames dissipated in the void, and Tang Yue's Dark Flame Technique was ineffective.

"Don't worry, I won't do it myself." The soul laughed strangely, "Let my baby play with you."

As soon as the words fell, the humanoid sarcophagus slowly opened. Lina prayed nervously to bless Tang Yue with auxiliary magic, and at the same time, a wind magic power surged from Tang Yue's body. Seeing the battle begin, Lina quickly retreated to a distance and watched nervously.

As Tang Yue chanted the spell, a group of skeleton warriors came from all directions, and the sound of bones rubbing against each other was creepy. The sarcophagus was completely opened, and a huge corpse tightly tied with white cloth appeared. Its body was shriveled, the skin was close to the bones, and there were strange bloodstains on its body.

The soul body floated beside the corpse, chanting a spell, and emitting red light. Lina exclaimed: "The corpse of the Dark Clan is controlled by it!"

Tang Yue took a deep breath. He felt the mysterious power emanating from the huge body in front of him, like a beacon in the dark night, attracting him to this mysterious place. However, the body seemed to be covered with an indescribable seal, and it exuded a puzzling aura, which made Tang Yue suspicious. Was this some kind of poor soul magic at work? Tang Yue was filled with vigilance and confusion.

Before Tang Yue could think deeply, the mysterious soul had completed the spell and fell into a weak state. At this moment, the corpse's eyes suddenly lit up red, as if a violent force was brewing in it and was about to burst out.

Under Tang Yue's command, the skeleton warriors launched a frenzied attack, while he retreated to a distance and began to gather his magic power, summoning more skeleton warriors from the magic circle.

The corpse suddenly flashed, and several skeleton warriors were instantly shattered into pieces. It casually pinched a skeleton, and the tall skeleton warrior looked so small in its huge palm, and the skull was easily crushed.

The attacks of the skeleton warriors landed on the remains, making a sound of metal colliding. Seeing the powerful strength displayed by the remains, the soul body laughed eerily: "Hehehe... It's useless. Your skeleton is indeed very powerful, but it seems that it can't break through the defense!"

Bone spears shot towards the seemingly vulnerable parts of the body, but even the strong bone spears could not break through its defense and shattered instantly as soon as they touched the body.

Tang Yue thought of a countermeasure quickly, constantly dodging and replenishing the skeleton warriors' energy.

The corpse rushed left and right among the group of skeleton warriors, and a large number of skeleton warriors flew high into the air.

Tang Yue suddenly sensed runes flowing on the corpse, and a faint soul power covered it. His originally powerful strength was less than one tenth of what it had originally been able to exert.

Now this corpse is being forcibly driven by soul power, and all we have to do is find a way to destroy the soul power that controls it.

After Tang Yue thought about it, he used the Touch of the Undead. The special soul power fluctuation startled the soul in the distance, and it shouted, "How did a mere 6th-level necromancer like you learn the soul attack method?"

No one answered its question. The touch of the undead within a range of ten meters appeared at the feet of the corpse that looked like a god of death. Several soul tentacles attacked and pulled at the soul power on the corpse.

Soon, the soul power attached to it was torn into pieces, the huge corpse stopped moving, and the terrifying aura no longer spread.

"Do not!!!"

The soul in the distance endured the pain of being torn apart and swooped towards Tang Yue.

"Damn you, why are you resisting? Why don't you just die peacefully and leave your body to me? You have to piss me off! I guess I'll let you have a taste of my power!"

Tang Yue thought to himself that something was wrong when he saw this, and was about to dodge, but it was too late, as the soul body was too fast.

“Hehehe…want to run? This is my territory, can you run away? Just give your body to me!”

The soul instantly merged into Tang Yue's body and went straight to the spiritual space.

This soul body floated in Tang Yue's spiritual space. As soon as it came in, it found that it could not move. With its strength at the peak of the holy realm in its lifetime, it was actually unable to move?

At the end of the sight, a soul body wrapped in light golden runes stood like a vast mountain range. When he looked at it with a horrifying look, his consciousness was wiped out in just a moment, and it turned into fragments and dissipated in this spiritual space.

Feeling the changes in his spiritual space, Tang Yue breathed a sigh of relief. The pure soul power washed over his spiritual space, greatly increasing his newly broken soul power.

"Do the guys in this world also like to steal people's bodies? If more of them come, won't I be able to take off right away and become a god immediately?"

At this moment, the runes on the huge soul body in Tang Yue's spiritual space seemed to dim a little, and some contract sealing techniques appeared in his mind out of thin air. Many contract methods seemed to have become his talents.

After feeling the changes in his body, Tang Yue clenched his fist with one hand, and runes flowed through it.

Tang Yue took a deep breath and looked at the body that had lost its ability to move. The vague feeling was calling and attracting him.

He approached the body and looked closely at the runes.

These runes seemed to contain some mysterious power, and Tang Yue decided to study them.

Just then, Lina ran over.

"Tang Yue, you are so amazing!"

Tang Yue smiled faintly and signaled her not to come over yet, as the location of the body was still unclear.

Upon closer inspection, apart from the faint attraction of the Taoist spirit, there was no difference. With a body more than three meters tall, Tang Yue looked very small in front of it.

The flames burned fiercely, and the white cloth was instantly burned to ashes, and the corpse finally revealed its true appearance. This body was as hard as iron and stone, and it emitted a black light all over, giving people a mysterious and terrifying feeling. It was 90% similar to humans, but there were obvious differences.

Its face was clearly defined, with five features, except for an extra eye on its forehead, which seemed to be able to see through all secrets. Its mouth was stretched to its ears, making it look particularly ferocious and terrifying. Its arms were slightly longer than those of an ordinary person, and the ends of its fingers were as sharp as knives, flashing with cold light, making people shudder.

He was wearing a tattered suit of armor, which, although broken into pieces, still stubbornly covered his chest, elbows and waist, like a battle-hardened warrior who, despite all the hardships, still glowed with a faint glow.

"Where does this inexplicable attraction come from?" Tang Yue fell into deep thought, with a glimmer of exploration in his eyes. He stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the corpse and explore this mysterious attraction.

"Don't!" Lina's scream broke the silence of the air, her face full of fear and tension, "This corpse exudes a sense of weirdness, we'd better not act rashly." The monster's power still made her feel scared. It must have been terrifying when it was alive.

Tang Yue's hand paused in the air for a moment, he turned to look at Lina with a comforting look in his eyes, "Don't worry, I can feel that this corpse seems to be calling me, there seems to be some kind of indescribable connection between me and it."

As soon as he finished speaking, his hand had already gently touched the cold corpse. The runes on the corpse seemed to come alive, emitting a faint light that slowly flowed on the surface of the corpse. Tang Yue mobilized the power of the contract, and as soon as they came into contact, the rune chains began to break and shatter layer by layer.

Suddenly, a deep black light burst out from the corpse, swallowing up Tang Yue and the corpse. In a flash, they disappeared without a trace, as if they had never appeared.

It all happened so fast that Lina had no time to react. She stared blankly at the empty space ahead, her heart filled with despair. "Tang Yue!!!" Her shouts echoed in the empty space, carrying with them endless grief and helplessness.
