Dark Wizard: Rise! My undead army!

Thinking about his path, which was unprecedented and unlikely to be followed by anyone in the future, Lynn suddenly felt a little regretful.

If only I could unlock the "Devour" talent of the Starry Sky Beast.

There's no need for such painstaking analysis, guidance, and integration.

Simply open your mouth, swallow the entire world along with its rules, digest it, and it will become your own power.

Then they continued to wander through the starry sky, devouring one world after another, and one plane after another.

Turn this wizarding journey into a game of big fish eating little fish.

That kind of efficiency improvement is far superior to his current approach.

Lynn shook her head.

Unfortunately, his bloodline wasn't strong enough; the talent of the Starry Sky Beast wasn't something he could easily inherit.

The cosmic behemoth is a malignant tumor that everyone hates in the endless starry sky.

They are born powerful, possessing talents such as devouring, stars, and space from birth.

No cultivation or enlightenment is needed; simply opening your mouth to eat will continuously make you stronger.

Eat stars, eat planets, eat planes, eat the world.

Wherever they go, stars are extinguished and worlds are destroyed.

The creatures, civilizations, and histories of those worlds all became nourishment for their growth.

Countless races hate them to the core, yet they are powerless against them.

The Starry Sky Beast is too powerful.

The adult cosmic behemoth possesses strength comparable to a true spirit wizard.

If they live long enough and eat enough, even ordinary spirit wizards can't do anything about them.

Those ancient monsters that have lived for hundreds of millions of years can even be compared to the ancient gods at the beginning of the universe.

Strangely, despite their power, they never ruled over the endless starry sky.

The reason is simple—they cannot comprehend the rules.

The talent of the Starry Sky Beast is engraved in its bloodline; it is an innate instinct.

They are born with the ability to devour energy, to travel through the starry sky, and to manipulate the power of the stars.

But these things are just talent, not enlightenment.

They are like a pack of ignorant beasts, possessing devastating power but lacking the wisdom to match it.

The Protoss-raised Star Leviathans are the best example.

That behemoth could roam the stars, swallow an asteroid whole, and draw upon the boundless power of the stars for its own use.

But it will always be the Protoss's "sacred beast," not their "sacred master."

A difference of just one word can have vastly different meanings.

Because it only uses talent, it doesn't understand the rules.

It can never proactively study the principles of star arrays, never create new techniques, and never understand the world from the perspective of rules like a true powerhouse.

The cosmic behemoth is ultimately just a beast.

Otherwise, with their terrifying talent, if they could comprehend the laws, they would have devoured the endless starry sky and the endless universe long ago.

What other races have a way to survive?

Lynn looked down at her hands.

He only possesses 30% of the Starry Sky Beast bloodline.

The Devouring talent was not awakened at all; the Star and Space talents were inherited to some extent, but they were only at the talent level.

What truly brought him to where he is today is [analysis], the memory library, and the knowledge and insights he has accumulated little by little.

It's not talent, it's wisdom.

Lynn withdrew her gaze and stood up.

On the distant horizon, the last rays of the setting sun are sinking below the horizon.

The undead army was still hunting down survivors, but he no longer needed to worry about it.

The resistance had long since collapsed, and the survivors hid in the mountains, cellars, and wilderness, but the undead continued to hunt them down.

Every moment, indigenous people die, and every moment, souls and corpses become ownerless.

Lynn's gaze swept across the street below.

Corpses lay strewn across the fields, and blood flowed like rivers.

The air was thick with the stench of blood and decay, the result of countless corpses being exposed to the sun.

He raised his right hand, a thought forming in his mind.

The entire world came to mind, and he could perceive the location of every undead without relying on the [Heart of Star Reign].

It can sense the life force that is still struggling to survive, and even sense the distribution of mineral veins deep in the earth, the direction of rivers, and the flow of energy.

This is the power brought about by the "pseudo-world will".

After absorbing those thirty rules, his connection with this world became exceptionally strong.

Although it is not the true Heavenly Dao, it can indeed perceive and influence this world to a certain extent by using those rules.

Just like now.

Lynn closed his eyes, and his mental energy spread in all directions.

The dead indigenous people, the corpses, and the wandering souls all appeared in his perception.

He opened his eyes, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"Time to collect the spoils."

Lynn took out the "Soul Lamp" from his waist and activated it with all his might.

Those fragments of souls drifting between heaven and earth, those complete souls that had just died but had not yet dissipated, surged in from all directions as if summoned.

Some were bewildered, some struggled, and some let out silent wails, but none of them could escape that suction force and were sucked into the soul lamp one by one.

This process lasted for a full two hourglasses.

As the last soul was absorbed, the inside of the soul lamp turned into a thick, grayish-white mist, within which countless distorted faces could be vaguely seen.

The light emitted by the soul lamp became even more dazzling.

Lynn roughly estimated that there were at least three million souls inside.

Although most of them are the souls of ordinary people, such a large number is still a considerable treasure.

He nodded in satisfaction and hung the soul lamp on his waist.

Soul lamps are, after all, just magical artifacts for storing souls; they cannot effectively utilize these souls.

Looking back, I'll forge a "Human Emperor Banner." Once it appears, billions of souls will instantly engulf the enemy...

Hmm, not bad, not bad.

Next came the corpse.

He released the Queen of the Corpse Horde, sending it with its swarm to collect the corpses of the powerful.

He didn't need the corpses of ordinary people; he directly fed them to the insect swarm to enhance their strength.

However, for those professionals, cultivators, and especially those strong enough to reach the first level or above, the corpses themselves are valuable materials.

It can be refined into undead, its essence can be extracted, and it can also be sold.

The Queen of the Corpse Horde let out an excited hiss, leading her swarm of insects to charge towards various battlefields.

The insects crawled over the corpse, using their tentacles to pierce into it and determine its quality.

They devour those of very poor quality on the spot, while they wrap the high-quality ones in mucus and drag them to a designated location to pile them up.

Lynn followed behind the swarm, personally selecting the most valuable ones.

The body of a general clad in armor, a former third-ring warrior, still retained a strong fighting spirit within him.

Lynn reached out and pressed his hand against the corpse's chest. [Analysis] He scanned the area and confirmed that the bones were intact, the muscles were not decayed, and the energy core was still there.

He raised his hand and summoned the corpse into the undead space.

An old mage in a long robe, who was at the peak of the second ring in life, had his soul extracted, but his body was well preserved, especially his hands covered with runes, which were good material for refining necromancers.

Receive!

A young female priestess who was a professional in the Holy Light faction during her lifetime.

For necromancers, these corpses are the most valuable, as they can be refined into "Fallen Priests," specifically used to deal with enemies of the God of Light.

Receive!

The corpse of a young child, with faint elemental fluctuations on its body, indicated that it had talent in life but did not have time to grow.

The spirits created from these corpses possess the strongest resentment and often have great potential.

Receive!
