Creatures of the Necro Realm are born from the condensation of the souls of the dead. Typically, dozens of souls can develop wisdom. As more souls are absorbed and devoured, the necromancer's power becomes stronger.
A necromancer with thousands of souls is essentially a ninth-level creature, but most of them won't be called a Thousand-Faced Fox. The reason is simple: the fox itself is insidious and cunning, and at the same time, it possesses thousands of soul memories, making it an outlier among necromancers.
Because the thousand-faced necromancer fox's infamous nature is not only recorded in the Sea Dragon Clan's library documents, but humanity also has a wealth of information about it. So upon seeing it, Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao immediately knew the attack method of the thousand-faced necromancer fox: "Spiritual stab!"
Spiritual power originates from the spiritual sea. At first, it's just a wisp. With the increase of natural power, it gradually increases, becoming rolling like a river, vast like the seven seas. Finally, the quantitative change leads to a qualitative change, from spiritual power to divine consciousness.
The amount of spiritual power is initially too small to be of any use. However, once it reaches a sufficient level and solidification, it can be released and inspect everything within ten or tens of meters around the body. However, this is only the most basic function of spiritual power. If a cultivator focuses on cultivating spiritual power, they can also use spiritual power to attack.
Most spiritual attacks are like a river, unable to penetrate strong barriers. While some can condense into needle-like points, piercing defenses like a pufferfish, and even condense into iron drills, spider webs, silk threads, and all sorts of imaginable shapes.
Spiritual power cultivation is different from law enforcement cultivation. It relies solely on natural resources, and is more difficult to cultivate. It must be consumed and restored repeatedly to increase its quantity, and destroyed and repaired repeatedly to increase its hardness.
Tang Yunqing wants to cultivate to become a high-level powerhouse, and cultivating spiritual power is an insurmountable hurdle. However, he specializes in the arts industry, focusing on cultivating divine power. Currently, his spiritual power is still relatively weak, and he cannot penetrate the body or form effective defenses and counterattacks.
The spirit piercing attack never stopped, but its intensity didn't increase. It seemed that the Thousand-Faced Necromancer Ghost Fox had used all his strength from the start. If so, there must have been another reason for him and Ye Luyao to withstand the Thousand-Faced Necromancer Ghost Fox's attack. It was a powerful existence of the ninth rank, after all.
The Thousand-Faced Necromancer Ghost Fox quickly realized the uselessness of the mental piercing and immediately changed its spiritual power attack method. A vast spiritual power like the ocean suddenly rushed towards Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao. The two of them suddenly felt like they were flat-bottomed boats, capsized by stormy waves, and capsized into the sea. Scenes then appeared before their eyes.
Some of these images came from the human race. He was one of the most common humans in the Three Realms during the Cataclysm. Facing the fall of the Warcraft Star, the invasion of the demon race, and the riots of various races, the ancestors of the human race were unable to protect every single human. He was a forsaken human, wandering helplessly on land, with the sky constantly flying with fiery meteors. One of them happened to be near him, and the massive impact instantly killed him.
There was a scene from the Sea Lion Clan, where the Star of Warcraft fell, and was stopped by the Seven God Beads and the Falan Star Clan. However, many islands were still shattered, triggering tsunamis, forming high temperatures, and evaporating the ocean. It was tolerable, but it was still cooked to death by the high-temperature ocean.
There was a scene from the demon race, where he possessed eighth-level strength, and the strong men of his clan fought against a demon race powerhouse, only to die in the aftermath caused by the collision of a great heavenly god-level powerhouse. There were no fewer than tens of thousands of strong men of his race who died with him, and the majestic might of a heavenly god could be seen.
There were also demons, orcs, trees, lamps, and so on, one by one presented themselves before Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao, showing them scenes of natural disasters in almost every direction. The sense of authenticity that penetrated their souls made them unable to help but indulge in it, gradually abandoning their defenses.
This attack wasn't like a mental piercing; it was constantly hurting them, preventing the Sea Dragon Ball from recovering. If this trend continued, the two might never be able to emerge from this sea of memories again.
As the two fell into the sea of memories, the Thousand-Faced Necromancer Ghost Fox slowly walked in front of them, staring at them with a pair of emotionless black eyes. It suddenly swung its claws fiercely. However, this was still not a physical injury, but a spiritual one.
As it swung its claws, Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao's spiritual seas appeared simultaneously, and a light slash left five deep holes.
Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao were suddenly seriously injured, so the Sea Dragon Ball restored their state for the two of them, pulling them out of their memory slumber. They suddenly opened their eyes and discovered that the Thousand-Faced Necromancer Ghost Fox had already arrived.
The two immediately attacked without hesitation.
Tang Yunqing summoned the Code of Truth, and a whip of guilt descended from the sky. Ye Luyao's dragon spear also condensed in an instant, piercing through the air and stabbing at them.
The Thousand-Faced Necromancer Ghost Fox didn't expect the two of them to be able to break free from their memory slumber, let alone that their spiritual seas had clearly been torn apart, yet they remained unharmed. They then launched a counterattack, opening their mouths frantically and uttering soul-rending screams. The whistle echoed in Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao's brains, but it didn't cause any damage. In fact, it did, but it was restored by the Sea Dragon Ball in less than an instant.
The Whip of Fault wrapped around the Thousand-Faced Necromancer Ghost Fox, but it was like a whip in the mist, useless. Ye Luyao's combat experience was similar to Tang Yunqing's, but his understanding of necromancers was deeper than Tang Yunqing's. Therefore, the Dragon Spear also contained its own spiritual attack, which was not powerful. However, when the Thousand-Faced Necromancer Ghost Fox was close and panicked, and its defenses were low, it was enough to inflict fatal wounds.
"Boom!"
Ye Luyao's spiritual power and dragon power fiercely stabbed the Thousand-Faced Necromancer Ghost Fox, continuously like a tide, instantly nailing it to the mud at the bottom of the sea. Then, thousands of souls of different races could not wait to struggle out of its body and merge into the seawater.
After the Thousand-Faced Necromancer Ghost Fox died, Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao breathed a sigh of relief.
Although they had defeated the ninth-level creature this time, they had relied entirely on the help of the Sea Dragon Ball. The Thousand-Faced Necromancer Ghost Fox seemed to be slightly larger and closer to their bodies, allowing them to find an opportunity. Under normal circumstances, they would not even have had an effective method against a spiritual soul body.
Seeing the souls disappearing before them, Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao were terrified by the twists and turns of rebirth, so they immediately rushed towards the dragon head's gaze in the center of the square. After arriving at the Dragon Demon God and the Sea Dragon God, Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao launched their attacks without hesitation.
At that moment, the images in front of Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao suddenly slowed down, and time seemed to stop.
"You dare kill me? Aren't you afraid of being sent by the devil?" The Dragon Demon God, who was refining the Sea Dragon God's Divine Soul, suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Tang Yunqing calmly, round human characters spitting out from his mouth.
Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao remained unmoved upon hearing this and continued their attacks, but no matter how hard they tried, they were still unmoved.
"You are a human, why are you helping him? Do you know what the Sea Dragon Clan has done to your human race?" The Dragon Demon God's voice fell, and the scene before Tang Yunqing changed. A scene that only existed in books slowly appeared.
Hundreds of millions of ancestors were enslaved by the demon race, subjected to painful labor. The demon race beat and scolded at every turn. If they were unhappy, they would be captured, killed, and eaten. They had no human rights whatsoever. As one of the most powerful races on the French Star at the time, the Sea Dragon race didn't care at all, because in their eyes, there was no difference between humanity and ants.
"They regard humanity as ants. Why do you want to help them? Why don't you help our demons unify French Blue? When the time comes, I can guarantee that there will definitely be a place for your humanity on French Blue Star. Once we completely control French Blue Star, we will explore more planetary continents, and in the end, your humanity can even have its own planetary continent. Wouldn't that be wonderful?" The Dragon Demon God's voice came at just the right time.
Ye Luyao, beside him, also heard the Dragon Demon God's voice, but didn't see the image Tang Yunqing saw. He was a little worried that he would be moved by the Dragon Demon God. However, he couldn't tear his gaze away, and was a little anxious for a moment.
"My clan can also help your clan take revenge and slaughter the demon race." The Dragon Demon God continued to tempt.
Tang Yunqing's expression remained unchanged when he heard this.
"If you insist on killing me? Not only will you die, but the entire human race will be buried with you. You don't know how powerful the Great God is. Even if I die, I can kill hundreds of millions of people, and I can also send news back to the demon race, and then the demon army will be able to destroy your entire human race in an instant. The reason why my demon race hasn't destroyed your human race is simply because you still have some use, but this use isn't just for your human race. You should think clearly." Seeing that his temptation had failed, the Dragon Demon God threatened again. But Tang Yunqing remained unmoved, as he didn't believe a word of what the Sea Dragon God had said.
Yes, the Sea Dragon Tribe did stand up to humanity's plight at first, but they didn't fall for it. They believed that they viewed humanity as if they were ants. Humanity, when ants are in trouble, certainly won't help them, but let them fend for themselves. Some brats would even use boiling water to scald ants to play with. At least the Sea Dragon Tribe didn't treat humanity that way.
And slaughtering the monster race? After slaughtering the monster race, they would become slaves to the demon race and never be able to be reborn. At least now the demon race was weaker than the monster race, and it would be easier to deal with some in the future. To achieve such a goal, how many ancestors were sacrificed in the first place?
With the threat of the Dragon Demon God, Tang Yunqing didn't activate the God-given Code. The Great Heavenly God was powerful, but the Dragon Demon God had fallen for over three hundred years, and his divine soul was certainly very weak. He couldn't possibly do what he said, slaughtering hundreds of millions of people. As for spreading the news? Tang Yunqing didn't believe that after his soul was destroyed, the Sea Dragon God's soul would allow such a thing to happen.
Overall, the Dragon Demon God's temptations and threats were too shallow and pale to make Tang Yunqing stop, let alone Ye Luyao.
