Dark Wizard: Rise! My undead army!

"Ugh—!!!"

The Nether Tiger let out a painful howl, its body retreating violently, with ghostly spirits surging wildly around its body in an attempt to repair the damage.

But it realized that it was completely outmatched in close combat!

Then overwhelm your opponents with sheer numbers!

A raging tide of vengeful spirits!

The Nether Tiger unleashed three thousand vengeful spirits at once, and a dark purple ghost storm swept across half the canyon, completely engulfing Megatron!

Amidst the storm, countless souls devoured each other, with hundreds of vengeful spirits attacking Megatron's soul fire and bones every second.

This was once the Nether Tiger's trump card. With this move, it had killed hundreds of undead of the same level, becoming a tyrant in this "Valley of Death".

But Megatron simply stood at the eye of the storm, the surface of the Titan skeleton glowing with the faint light of the Earth's core gold.

The bites of the vengeful spirits left not even a scratch on its bones, and the impact of the soul fire did not even cause a ripple.

Megatron didn't even bother to use his dragon breath to clear the area.

These weak ghosts are not worth its time.

It simply lifted its foot again—

Mountain collision!

The colossal twenty-meter-long body transformed into a dark golden "Great Fortune," crashing straight into the Nether Tiger amidst the ghostly storm!

The Nether Tiger tried to dodge, but the suppression of the Dragon's Might Domain slowed its movements by half a beat.

boom--! ! !

Pure physical collision!

The Nether Tiger was sent flying head-on, its dark iron skeleton cracking with a sickening sound. At least seven ribs shattered instantly, and its spine was fractured.

It tumbled and crashed into the rock wall, where it was partially buried by falling debris.

Not finished yet.

Megatron pursued, his massive tail sweeping across like a warhammer—

Tail hammer strike!

boom--!!!

The rock wall collapsed a second time, and the Nether Tiger was smashed deep into the mountain.

Nearly half of its ghostly flesh and blood had disintegrated, and the two orbs of soul fire were swaying violently, almost splitting apart.

Dark Tiger, utterly defeated!

Megatron did not continue his attack.

It stepped back a few paces, looking down at the struggling Nether Tiger in the pit, its soul fire conveying a clear will:

"Surrender—or—death—!"

Lynn was somewhat taken aback.

Good heavens, Megatron has stolen all his jobs!

However, he also understood that Megatron wanted to solidify his position under Lynn, to become the legendary figure second only to one man and above all the dead.

The Nether Tiger struggled to raise its head, its ghostly blue soul flames gazing at the invincible skeletal king before it, and then at the figure on the bone rock who had been calmly watching the battlefield.

It understood.

That Tyrannosaurus Rex was merely a "warrior"; the true "king" was that human wizard.

"Waaah..."

The Nether Tiger let out a deep roar, lowered its head, and actively suppressed all soul energy fluctuations—a gesture of complete submission from the undead.

Lynn floated down from the bone rock and landed beside Megatron, patting its cold neck: "Well done."

Megatron let out a satisfied growl, stepped aside, and handed the stage over to his master.

Lynn walked up to the Dark Tiger, placed his right hand on its skull, and wasn't worried at all that it would suddenly attack.

His close-combat ability is not necessarily weaker than Megatron's; one slap from him could make Dark Tiger doubt his very existence.

The Heart of Starfall Domination is activated!

The silver-gray soul imprint seeped into the depths of the Nether Tiger Soul Fire like roots, binding itself to its core.

Throughout this process, the Nether Tiger offered no resistance whatsoever—it was completely convinced.

After subduing the monster, Lynn immediately began treatment.

The death energy mixed with the power of the stars surged into the Nether Tiger's body, and its broken bones were rejoined, making it stronger than before.

Immediately afterwards, the power of the soul surged in, and the scattered flesh and blood of the ghost re-coalesced.

In just a few dozen breaths, Minghu's injuries had recovered by 70%.

"Alright, get up." Lynn looked around the entire Death Valley.

"Show us around your territory, and take all the good stuff you can!"

With a roar, the Nether Tiger led Lynn to survey its territory within the canyon.

The territory is inhabited by 20,000 ghosts, ranging from level 1 to level 3.

This place serves as a backup "camp" for the Nether Tiger, ready to replenish its ranks at any time.

As for other types of undead... it ate them all like melon seeds.

Lynn directly ordered the Nether Tiger to release the level 1 vengeful spirits within its body, replacing them all with level 2 and level 3 spirits.

The Nether Tiger readily agreed, immediately releasing a large number of low-level ghosts from its body. Then, with a roar, it summoned all the ghosts within its territory.

Countless ghosts swarmed out from rock crevices, caves, and piles of bones.

Most of these ghosts are level 1. Under the control of the Nether Tiger, ghosts of level 2 and above actively merge into the Nether Tiger's body!

After a short while, the influx finally stopped.

The number of ghosts in the Nether Tiger's body reached (4872/9999), which is close to half of the required number for advancement.

Tsk...quite a difference!

With the progress bar right in front of him, Lynn couldn't help but feel a little itchy.

I'll feel really uneasy if I don't collect them all!

Alright, I'll just sweep through the entire Death Canyon in a bit. I don't believe I can't gather more than 5,000 level 2 ghosts.

Having made up his mind, Lynn glanced again at the more than 20,000 level 1 ghosts surrounding him.

These ghosts were too weak and not very valuable; if Lynn had done it before, he would have simply killed them all.

But this is, after all, the accumulated wealth of the Nether Tiger. It might be useful if it advances to level 4 Calamity-level later, so let's keep it for now.

He took out the Soul Lamp hanging from his waist and had the Nether Tiger command all 20,000-plus creatures to crawl inside.

Fortunately, this second-ring witch artifact was quite spacious; it held over 20,000 ghosts, which significantly increased the brightness of the soul lamp.

The Soul Lamp emitted a soft light that shone on Lynn, warming his soul and making him feel very comfortable.

Lynn's heart stirred as he recalled one of the characteristics of the Soul Lamp—"Soul Power Resonance".

Wearing it for a long time or infusing it with one's own spiritual energy can slightly enhance the wearer's sensitivity to spiritual perception.

Lynn had previously tried injecting his spiritual energy, but found that the improvement in his soul perception was negligible, almost negligible.

Lynn thought the effect was so-so, so he didn't pay much attention to it and hung it on his waist to enhance his soul perception on his own.

Now that it has absorbed more than 20,000 ghosts, the brightness of the Soul Lamp has increased significantly, and the enhanced soul perception has become much stronger!

So this thing needs to be charged too!

Tsk... I'm so stupid, I have a treasure and I don't even know how to use it.

I knew it! How could the Second Ring Road be so terrible!

Having grasped the wondrous uses of the Soul Lamp, Lynn's interest in collecting ghosts increased considerably.

If the Soul Lamp is filled to capacity, how bright will it be? And how much of an improvement will it provide?

At this moment, the Dark Tiger nuzzled Lynn with its huge head, signaling him to follow it.

Lynn followed out of curiosity and soon arrived at the entrance of a huge cave.

This is... a treasure vault??

Thinking of the "treasures" that Gale had given him last time, Lynn's interest waned considerably.

It's just a wild undead; how much of it can be collected?

But what Lynn saw after entering surprised her.

Over a hundred pounds of Nether Iron Ore, 47 Styx Crystals, 32 pieces of Ancient Weapon Remains, 13 Broken Soul Containers, and various types of Soul Dust, Bone Powder, and Negative Energy Crystals...

The miscellaneous items totaled thirty cubic meters!

Although the individual values ​​are not very high, the quantity is quite impressive, and the total value is not small.

If I didn't have a huge "dimensional space" of my own, I probably wouldn't have been able to take all these things with me at once.
