Necromancer: A New Era

On the winding road leading to Haier Town, Tang Yue and his group seemed to be shrouded in a heavy cloud, and they looked a little dull and melancholy. Tang Yue was sitting quietly on the broad back of the Amethyst Demon Lion, his eyes closed, as if he was in deep meditation. His face was as calm as water, and he fell into meditation after getting rid of the pursuers.

Lina rode on a unicorn and followed closely behind. Her beautiful face was full of worry, and she glanced at Tang Yue from time to time, as if trying to see through his closed eyes and peek into his inner world. Two days passed quickly, but Tang Yue was still immersed in his own meditation, which made Lina's worry snowball.

At the end of the team, the shrunken Elfthard was sitting on the rock-hard shoulder of the Hades Dragon. His face was pale and weak, and he had obviously exhausted a lot of strength in the fierce battle with the Orc King. Although that thrilling battle cost him a heavy price, it also showed his amazing strength. Being able to force the Orc King to use the power of the demons was enough to show Elfthard's awe-inspiring strength. Chakar walked beside the Hades Dragon, looking at Elfthard from time to time. He still remembered the battle with the Orc King vividly, and was quite curious about this adult's new subordinate.

Although each of the people in this group had different thoughts in their minds, they were all moving forward silently.

Suddenly, there was a sound of chopping and killing coming from the front. Tang Yue opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the sound.

"It seems like someone is fighting ahead." Lina said.

"Let's go and take a look." Tang Yue drove the Amethyst Demon Lion forward.

As they got closer, they saw that it was a group of orc wolf riders besieging a group of human knights. The knights fought hard, but were obviously at a disadvantage. They surrounded a young knight dressed as a noble.

At Tang Yue's signal, Carl flew away, and within a few breaths, only corpses were left of the large group of wolf cavalry.

Under the shocked gazes of the knights, Carl withdrew the two scimitars that were still dripping with blood and stepped aside.

"Thank you for your help!" The young knight came forward and bowed in gratitude.

Tang Yue looked and found this group of knights quite familiar. He frowned and thought, aren't these the knights that Tang Yue met in Haier Town two years ago who were preparing to steal the alchemist's notes?

Seeing that Tang Yue did not answer for a long time, the young knight felt a little embarrassed and did not dare to move, and kept bowing.

"Who are you?" Tang Yue looked at the young knight and said indifferently.

"Sir, I am the son of the Duke of Falcon. My name is Will, and these are my family knights."

"Okay, you can go now!" Tang Yue didn't want to say more, so he waved his hand.

"and many more!"

Will shouted hurriedly, "Respected strong man, you saved our lives, we have no way to repay you. I see you are going to Haier Town, which is the same direction as us. If you need any help, please feel free to ask."

Tang Yue pondered for a moment, then said, "Then tell me about the situation there."

Will's eyes flashed with surprise, and he quickly agreed. He introduced the topography and distribution of Haier Town in detail.

After listening to Will's introduction, Tang Yue didn't hear any changes and stopped paying attention.

So Tang Yue led everyone to follow Will to Haier Town. On the way, they encountered various dangers, but they were all easily resolved.

Finally, they arrived at a valley outside the town of Haier, which was an ideal place for rest with beautiful scenery and quiet environment.

It was getting late, and everyone built a simple camp in the valley and settled down. Under Lina's careful care, Efissad gradually recovered.

Tang Yue sat cross-legged on the hillside outside the camp and began to think about his next move. His goal was to see if there were still people alive in Haier Town. Along the way, it seemed that the orcs moved very quickly and most of the areas had been swept.

At this time, Lina walked lightly to Tang Yue's side. She found that Tang Yue was not immersed in meditation, and his deep eyes revealed a hint of worry. So, she asked softly: "Tang Yue, what's wrong with you? Is there something bothering you?"

Tang Yue came back to his senses and sighed slightly, "It's nothing, actually. It's just that I've reached a critical moment in my cultivation recently, but I always feel that I'm just one step away from a breakthrough, but I can't find the key to that door."

Lina suddenly had an idea and suggested, "Perhaps you can go ask Ephesud. I just saw that he has woken up from recuperation."

Tang Yue's eyes flashed with joy when he heard this. He had been worried about Efizad's physical condition these days, and was also worried about the pursuit of the orc king. Now that he knew that Efizad had woken up, the heavy stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

Not long after, Efissad came over and saluted Tang Yue respectfully, "My Lord!"

Tang Yue directly stated his troubles, "Efissad, I have reached a bottleneck in my practice. I feel like I am trapped in a fog."

After hearing this, Elfizard smiled deeply, "My Lord, the path of cultivation is never a smooth one. The bottleneck is just a small test on this road."

"Then what do you think I should do?" Tang Yue asked anxiously.

Eftisad pondered for a moment and spoke slowly: "The essence of necromancy lies in the deep understanding of life and death. Perhaps you need to explore the secrets of life more deeply. From the moment it is born to the moment it disappears, every detail is worth your careful experience."

Tang Yue fell into a long silence after hearing this, and finally sighed: "Life and death, this is indeed a part I have never thought deeply about before. I always thought that as long as I mastered the power of death, I could control everything."

Ephesus shook his head slightly and said earnestly: "Death is not the end, but the beginning of another form. Only when you truly understand this can you break free from the current shackles."

Tang Yue's heart moved, and his gifted magician suddenly appeared beside him. He pointed at the magician and asked Efissad: "Do you know it?"

After seeing this, Ephesus became a little excited, "My Lord, this is your artifact - the Book of the Death God King's Legacy!"

After learning its name, Tang Yue's eyes flashed with confusion, "The Book of the Death God King's Inheritance?"

“Yes,” Ephesud explained, “When you first entered the realm of the God of Death as a mortal, the inheritance of the God of Death you obtained came from this book.”

"Why can't I feel that it has any other functions besides being able to see the words on it?"

"Apart from the words, are there any other special features?"

Tang Yue shook his head thoughtfully.

"My Lord, this... you may need to figure it out yourself. I don't understand it."

"..."

Tang Yue was speechless. He had been communicating with him for such a long time but he still couldn't discover it. How did he receive the inheritance in the past?

"The Book of Divine King's Inheritance? Why is there no hint in my telepathic communication?"

Seeing Tang Yue lost in deep thought, Ephisad left silently.
