Dark Wizard: Rise! My undead army!

After resolving the trivial matters within the academy and successfully advancing his Dragon Soul, Lynn felt he now had a means of self-preservation and prepared to capture his former "enemy"—the Void Demon Eye.

Its mental ray pierced through his magical shield and struck directly at the soul level.

If it weren't for the fact that his soul and mental strength far surpassed those of others of the same level, coupled with the double protection of the [Tears of Tranquility and Peace] and the [Soul Shield Generator], his newly refined substitute soul would probably have been consumed.

In the end, he could only flee in a sorry state.

Looking back now, that Void Demon Eye was at least mid-level lv6, and very likely even peak lv6.

Its psychological attacks were almost unsolvable for Lynn at the time.

The Void Eyes are creatures that live in a special environment near void rifts, feeding on spatial turbulence and wandering spiritual energy.

They are extremely sensitive to spatial fluctuations, can move freely in the void, and are extremely difficult to detect.

However, their weaknesses are also clear: they have weak physical defenses and almost no close-combat ability.

As long as you can withstand that terrifying mental attack and get close enough, you can subdue it.

Hmm... It's almost impossible for beings of the same level to withstand its mental attacks head-on.

Lynn's escape with a strength one level lower was truly a stroke of luck.

With Lynn's increased mental strength and soul power after advancing to the third ring, plus the assistance of two magical artifacts, he should be able to withstand its mental rays without any problem.

Moreover, he is not alone; he also has the Dragon Soul main soul to provide support.

As a spiritual entity, it has a natural resistance to mental attacks and can be of help in critical moments.

...

With everything ready, Lynn traveled to that demiplane via the teleportation array.

That was a demiplane known as the "Void Ruins".

This place was once a prosperous civilization, but countless years ago it was corrupted by void energy, and the entire plane collapsed into countless fragments.

Landmasses of all sizes float in the endless void, separated by spatial rifts of varying widths.

Everywhere you look, there are dilapidated building ruins, and occasionally you can see severely weathered skeletons.

When Lynn first came here, he was almost confused by the complicated terrain.

Now he was quite adept at it, summoning the bone eagle and riding it between the floating islands.

He remembered the approximate location of the Void Eye—deep within the Void Ruins, on a floating island surrounded by spatial turbulence.

The bone eagle flew for three days.

During this time, Lynn encountered several waves of undead void creatures—void worms, riftwalkers, and space devourers.

These guys all possess some form of spatial ability, which would be extremely troublesome to other wizards, but for Lynn...

Breaking the limits of spatial talent is no joke.

These void creatures are the daily snacks of the star behemoths, naturally suppressing them.

After suppressing these void creatures, he took them into the undead space. Some of them, whose undead transformation was not too severe, could not be subdued with the [Heart of Star Reign], and he dealt with them easily.

It's a pity. If they could have their own demiplane, they could throw them in and slowly "dead" them.

Along the way, I collected more than a dozen sets of level 4 materials and fed the souls to the dragon soul.

On the fourth day, he finally approached the area.

The space ahead became noticeably unstable.

Visible spatial rifts, like cracks in glass, crisscrossed the void.

This space may seem ordinary, but it is a natural "trap". If an ordinary creature were to enter, it would be torn apart by these spaces.

Lynn slowed the bone eagle down and carefully maneuvered around the cracks.

The floating island is just ahead.

The island was barren, devoid of any vegetation, and the ground was covered with a layer of grayish-white dust, which was the weathered rock that had been eroded by the energy of the void.

In the center of the floating island, a giant eyeball is suspended in mid-air, surrounded by a dozen dancing tentacles.

Void Demonic Eye.

Lynn breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

This guy is still here, so this trip wasn't a waste of time.

The creature floated in the void, its enormous eyeball over three meters in diameter surrounded by countless tiny tentacles.

The surface of its eyeballs was covered with strange purple patterns, and with each blink, an invisible mental ray shot out from its pupils.

It was even larger than Lynn remembered, with a diameter of nearly four meters, so it seems that it wasn't just Lynn who had improved over the years.

Fortunately, it did not advance to the next level.

Hmm... as long as it doesn't break through to level 7, there shouldn't be any problem; otherwise, it would really be a disaster.

The difference between level 6 Nightmare and level 7 Kingdom is like the difference between a three-ring and a Holy Mark – it's a qualitative difference.

Lynn could withstand a level 6 attack when he was in the second ring, and he could escape even when he was at the peak of level 6.

Now that he has advanced to the third ring, he will have a hard time escaping from a level 7 opponent; one strike could probably cripple him.

Lynn did not approach rashly.

He landed at the edge of the floating island, put away the bone eagle, and let the dragon soul main soul wait in his body.

The other undead were not released.

Normal level 5 undead are not very effective against the Eye of the Demon, and there is a risk of death after being scanned by the Eye of the Demon.

As for the powerful stone golems and giant trees, their enormous size means they are constantly subjected to attacks from spatial rifts in this void world, essentially giving them a health-draining buff.

Lynn released the Stone Heart Mist Domain a certain distance away from the Void Eye. The grayish-white mist slowly spread and enveloped his figure.

Then he began to slowly approach.

When it was still thousands of meters away from the Demon Eye, that thing moved.

Its eyes turned toward Lynn, staring at the human.

It remembered Lynn, the little mouse that had escaped from its grasp years ago.

And now, they actually dare to come!

A flash of purple light appeared in the Demon Eye's pupils, and an invisible ray of mental energy shot out!

Lynn was prepared.

The Soul Shield Generator activated in response, and a pale blue light shield appeared on his body.

The mental beams struck the light shield, causing it to tremble violently, but it held firm.

The Soul Shield Generator was originally a third-circle sorcerer, and under Lynn's powerful mental strength, it was even more robust than before.

At the same time, he was using his mental energy at full power to protect his soul.

The shockwave exploded at the soul level, but it only made him slightly dizzy for a moment.

"It's alright, much better than back then," Lynn thought to herself.

That attack almost killed him back then, but now it only makes him dizzy.

He sped up, charging towards the Demon Eye despite the mental rays.

The Demon Eye clearly sensed the danger.

It continuously emits mental rays, each one stronger than the last.

Lynn's shield generator began to crack, but he had already rushed to within two hundred meters of the Magic Eye.

"Dragon Soul!"

The golden dragon flew out of the body and transformed into a golden light, rushing towards the demon eye.

It has no physical form, and its soul is extremely stable, so mental rays can only cause limited damage to it.

The little dragon passed through the rays and crashed directly into the surface of the Demon Eye's enormous eyeball.

Golden dragon flames erupted, scorching the purple patterns.

The Demon Eye let out a silent scream, abandoning its attack on Lynn and turning its attention to the Dragon Soul.

Countless tentacles coiled around the little dragon, trying to tear it off its eyeballs.

Lynn seized the opportunity, condensing the Space Blade in his hand, and with a short teleport, appeared directly behind the Demon Eye.

The blade pierced the demon's body; its skin was tougher than expected, and the spatial blade only penetrated halfway.

But enough.

Lynn's spiritual energy surged into the blade, and [Heart of Starfall Domination] was activated at full power!

The demonic eye struggled violently, its mental fluctuations spreading outwards like a storm.

Lynn gritted his teeth and continued branding despite the impact, while the dragon soul behind him held tightly to the tentacles of the demon eye, preventing it from interfering.

one second.

two seconds.

three seconds.

Ten breaths later, the struggle of the Demon Eye gradually subsided.

The purple markings on its eyeballs slowly faded, replaced by a miniature Lynn's brand.

The frantic tentacles drooped down, swaying limply.

Lynn retracted the spatial blade and let out a long sigh of relief.
