Chapter 332 - 330: Breaking Through the Lines
Hearing Lin You’s words.
Lingxi, holding a magic staff, immediately flew in front of him.
The petite and delicate face now carried a few more traces of sternness and majesty.
Coupled with the crown on her head, this aura was elevated to the extreme.
Sensing the determination conveyed through the spirit communication, Lin You smiled faintly, then his expression turned serious.
"All teams, listen up, attack!"
With a loud shout, all the plants were divided into several formations, led by various royal species, advancing towards the Undead Sea.
At the same time, the sky darkened.
Lin You directly summoned the Cyan Rattan from the origin space.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
The moment the Cyan Rattan appeared, gigantic vines began to swiftly extend outward, centered around its main body, instantly covering an area of 800 meters in radius.
Forming a terrifying vine forest in all directions.
This massive disturbance immediately drew the attention of the outermost skeleton demons, who turned their heads, and amidst a cacophony of clicks, transformed into a white torrent surrounding them.
"Ancient Tree Legion, form the ranks!"
Lin You stood in the middle of the formation, loudly commanding.
The War Trees and Ancient Natural Trees that received the order immediately constructed a wall of trees, colliding fiercely with the Skeleton Army.
The bravest among them was undeniably the Cyan Gang in charge of the central position.
Charging directly to the front, wielding the Calamity Sword Bamboo, he continually swung, chopping off the heads of the skeletons rushing at them, moving as if no one was there to stop him.
The royal species responsible for other directions were not weak at all.
Especially the Cannibal Flower Legion led by Heaven-Devouring.
Along the way, they revived a large number of Immortal Flowers, turning into a flower sea that continually spread in all directions.
Coupled with the Tree Demons summoned by the Ancient Natural Trees, their numbers were actually not inferior to the Skeleton Army.
They instantly blocked the ever-emerging skeletons, engaging in a frenzied battle on the battlefield.
Other plants were not idle either, energetically supporting from the back, fiercely bombarding the oncoming Skeleton Army.
"Swoosh!"
At this moment, two Calamity Sword Bamboos within the formation finally moved.
Blades of bamboo transformed into sword qi, shooting out rapidly, swirling in the air.
The Cyan Rattan went even further, with gigantic vines directly penetrating underground, suddenly bursting forth in the densest area of skeleton demons, and with a wild swing, instantly clearing the area of skeletons.
The entire scene was chaotic.
Yet advancing in a very orderly fashion.
Finally, after advancing over a hundred meters, the Undead Bone Dragons roaming in the back also began to move.
They roared as they spread their wings, swooping towards them from all directions, spewing out a vast expanse of Dragon Flame.
The searing gusts imbued with Death Qi caused the surrounding air to twist and distort.
"Life Curtain!"
Lin You shouted, and the Life Elemental Spirit beside him immediately activated a skill.
In the next second.
A light shield, filled with rich life aura, appeared, enveloping all the frontline species, while the Elf Master unit at the back initiated group healing.
Under the dual healing effect boost, it easily withstood the impact of the Dragon Flame.
As the Undead Bone Dragons flew over the front line and reached their rear, Lin You quickly raised his hand.
"Banshee Vine, ready... ensnare!"
With a command, a mass of vines shot out, binding those Undead Bone Dragons tightly, dragging them down fiercely.
The Undead Bone Dragons struggled desperately, but couldn’t break free from the growing number of vines.
Then the Pea Shooters within the team quickly turned and fired a volley of peas at them, piercing their breastbones.
In an instant.
The Undead Fire within their chests was pierced by the peas, and amid disgruntled roars, they perished on the spot.
This was a method that Lin You had seen other lords mention yesterday on the chat channel for dealing with Undead Bone Dragons.
His Pea Shooters, enhanced by the secret treasures, had an attack with 40% armor penetration, making them all the more suitable for dealing with these Undead Bone Dragons.
Just like that, with one controlling and one outputting damage.
The originally formidable Leader-level Undead Bone Dragon army was easily dismantled, causing them no substantial impact.
"Keep advancing!"
After resolving the Undead Bone Dragons, Lin You waved his hand, and the formation gradually advanced to face the Undead Grandmaster.
Then he noticed.
When the Grandmaster entered the range of his origin space, its attributes suddenly decreased by 5%, beginning to be affected by the Dominator’s Certificate.
Adding on the suppression from the Dragon Mighty of the Demon Emperor Dragon, it decreased by another 5%.
From the original 10,000 spirit points, it was now down to just 9,000!
Fortunately.
It was only at Tier Eight.
If it were Tier Nine, the negative state effects would be significantly reduced in effectiveness.
Just like the Charming Poisonous Mist and Banshee’s Kiss from the Enchanting Beldam, their effects on those of higher levels were much smaller.
One major reason for this is due to the opponent’s high spirit, high comprehensive attributes, which provide resistance effects.
For instance, poisoning a sickly person and a robust individual would obviously yield different results.
Previously, because the territory essence required for upgrading species was low, and there were many high-level species around, this situation was rarely encountered.
Now, as the species upgrade became difficult.
The gaps between levels were sharply highlighted.
Lin You estimated.
If encountering a Tier Nine Lord Demon.
His various negative states would at most only achieve half effectiveness.
And further up, they might not even have any effect at all.
"Very well, Lingxi, leave it to you."
The Undead Grandmaster, with lowered attributes, posed another level of reduced threat to him.
Without wasting any more time, he directly issued a command to Lingxi beside him.
At this moment.
The Undead Grandmaster floating in the air could no longer remain idle.
As soon as they approached, the death qi around the Undead Grandmaster started to surge crazily.
Then, he raised the Skull Staff high, abruptly pointing it forward.
Suddenly, a black hole appeared, fiercely whipping up a terrifying storm, sweeping toward his Plant Army.
Right from the start, he unleashed his Dark Storm skill directly!
In an instant, the entire battlefield was covered by a black storm.
The Reproduction Species and Cannibal Flowers engaged in battle, and even the Skull Demons, were all swept high into the air, shredded into pieces within that black hole.
The surroundings were filled with flying sand and stones, with ferocious winds blowing strongly.
As if everything below was about to be devoured.
However, Lingxi was not to be outdone, flying into the air away from the team, waving the Magic Staff, unleashing a surging Power of Nature.
In a flash.
Huge Wooden Thorns shot out from the ground, forming a giant circle on the battlefield, completely trapping the black hole inside.
"Boom!"
The Wooden Thorns exploded, wood chips flying everywhere.
The terrifying black hole that the storm was sweeping through also dissipated accordingly.
Without the Barbaric Roar’s blessings, they were actually evenly matched.
If any other Lord were here at this moment, their jaws would surely drop.
Someone actually managed to block the skill of a Tier Eight Lord-level Demon with just a single Species?
And it was even a skill from a Magic Lord Demon!
If this got out, no one would dare to believe it.
Because even Tier Nine Species couldn’t achieve such a feat.
But Lingxi did it!
"Excellent! Full assault!"
In the rear of the team, Lin You was overjoyed.
Seizing the moment when Lingxi and the Undead Grandmaster were fiercely clashing in the air, he immediately reorganized the troops, built a defensive line, and continued the assault on the Skeleton Army.
Meanwhile, Cyan Gang’s Barbaric Roar was unleashed, a vast red glow rose, finally allowing the Plant Army’s momentum to overpower the skeletons and begin a frenzied massacre.
These Demons.
Half were driven back by the Beast Tide, and the other half were summoned by the Undead Grandmaster.
Yet even so.
Lin You’s Magic Energy was still increasing rapidly.
Notifications sounded in his mind, densely connected into a sequence.
In just twenty minutes, his Magic Energy increased from 100 million to 120 million, successfully squeezing out the fifth place on the Magic Ability Chart.
Then, after another ten minutes.
Magic Energy reached 130 million, achieving fourth place.
Such an exaggerated growth rate instantly caught the attention of Lords from all walks of life, causing a stir and an uproar.
"Did this Lin You take some drugs? He climbed from sixth to fourth place in just half an hour!"
"Judging from the growth rate, he should be slaying Demons, could he have slaughtered all the Undead in the depths?"
"Impossible, right? There’s an Undead Grandmaster there."
"Why not go over and see for ourselves."
"Whoa! He’s already third place!"
Exclamations constantly echoed across various parts of the battlefield.
In the blink of an eye, Lin You’s ranking had risen again, surpassing the third-place Cyan Phoenix, closing in on second place.
And his Magic Energy also reached an astonishing 140 million.
Until it almost hit 145 million, this growth rate only then began to slow down.
Not because of anything else.
But because the battle between Lingxi and the Undead Grandmaster had reached an intense phase.
After using the Guardian Barrier skill to endure a big skill attack from the Undead Grandmaster, Lin You, in the midst of the team, finally burst forth, gathering the Power of Rule to unleash an enhanced version of the Barbaric Roar.
Suddenly, Lingxi’s attributes overshadowed the declining momentum of the Undead Grandmaster.
Seizing the gap when it was releasing skills, countless Wooden Thorns converged and instantly pierced it into swiss cheese.
[Successfully killed Tier Eight Lord Demon Undead Grandmaster, awarded 100,000 Magic Energy points.]
The cold notification, accompanied by the Undead Grandmaster’s heartrending wail, echoed beside him.
The Skeleton Army it had summoned finally perished entirely, turning into heaps of dry bones with only a small portion of residual Demons remaining.
"You all go clear out the remaining Demons."
After uttering to the Plants by his side, Lin You immediately broke away from the team, heading to the spot where the Undead Grandmaster fell.
Only to see that after the Undead Grandmaster died, death qi quickly converged, forming one Tier Eight Essence, ten Tier Seven Essences, and three radiantly glowing Battlefield Treasures above its corpse.
Like other Battlefield Treasures.
The moment those treasures appeared, they were enveloped by a pillar of golden light, then soared into the sky.
The spectacular sight could be clearly seen even a hundred miles away.
"Quick! Over there!"
"That’s the symbol of a Battlefield Treasure!"
"Someone killed the Lord Demon!"
Sure enough.
Shortly thereafter, urgent footsteps and shouting suddenly came from a distance.
Several teams exploring nearby, with their Species, hurriedly rushed over.
In the recent battle, Lin You lost a total of three Multiplication Entities and one Symbiotic Moss.
All were killed by the skills of the Undead Grandmaster.
And the remaining Plants were also greatly consumed, unsuitable for combat.
So without much thought.
He took the Treasure and Cyan Rattan, then left the original spot with his Plant Army, heading deeper into the battlefield.
When those Lords arrived, they only saw a wasteland of skeletons and corpses, dumbfounded at the scene.
"That’s... the Undead Grandmaster!"
"The Undead Grandmaster was killed!"
