Dark Wizard: Rise! My undead army!

Deeply shocked, Montenegro carefully examined the area again and finally saw it clearly.

A faint, almost imperceptible energy was seeping out from the surrounding void, slowly merging into the projection.

The nature of that energy was exactly the same as the aura of the world itself.

"This is... the power of the world?" Black Mountain's pupils contracted.

He remembered what Lynn had said earlier.

"I once dreamed of the image of the world's will, and then it materialized."

He initially thought Lynn was talking nonsense, but now he was starting to believe it.

A wizard who can project the will of the world and allow the projected will of the world to automatically absorb the power of the world to recover is definitely not just a link in the chain.

Could it be that some old guy at the Saint Mark level "possessed" Lynn, and his plan was ruined by him?

Or... this guy sealed his power and is now unsealing it!

"You brat, you're stalling for time!" Black Mountain roared.

He no longer held back, unleashing his full power as the Shadow Avatar.

More than a dozen tentacles doubled in size and rolled towards the projection from all directions.

At the same time, his main body also moved, his body wrapped in black armor crashing into Lynn, intending to kill his main body first while the projection was entangled.

It can project faster.

The grayish-white light suddenly magnified, and a beam of light as thick as an arm swept out.

The beam of light swept across the tentacles, and they snapped off inch by inch like burnt hemp rope.

The momentum of Black Mountain's main body rushing forward was also stopped by the beam of light. He raised his arm to block, but the beam of light burned through his arm armor, causing him a sharp pain in his soul.

The projection coalesced again.

Its right arm was raised, and a gray-white ball of light condensed in its palm. The surging power within the ball of light made Black Mountain feel cold all over.

That was all the energy of the soul projection, compressed into a single point.

"You fucking insane!" Black Mountain shouted in terror, "If this projection explodes, your own soul will be severely injured! The path of a wizard will be completely severed!"

Without hesitation, the projector pushed the ball of light out.

Even if it costs him the rest of his life, Lynn will make this old man taste the "soul bomb"!

The ball of light flew toward Black Mountain at a relatively slow speed, but Black Mountain felt as if he was locked in place by something and could not move at all.

That was a projection lock, a lock at the soul level. His soul was compressed into a ball by the aura of that orb of light, and he couldn't even think straight.

Soon, the ball of light struck his chest.

There was no explosion as expected, nor any loud noise. The ball of light simply and smoothly entered his body, like water seeping into sand.

Heishan looked down at his chest. His body was completely unharmed, with no penetrating wounds or scars on his skin.

But he didn't think Lynn's attack, which exhausted his soul projection, would be so weak.

Sure enough, he sensed it.

The ball of light exploded within his soul.

The grayish-white power, like countless fine needles, pierced outward from the core of his soul, tearing and shattering it.

Black Mountain opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

His shadow avatar shattered, its tentacles fell off, its black armor peeled away, revealing a pale face beneath.

Black Mountain knelt down, his soul cracking like shattered ice, the cracks spreading from his chest to his entire body.

He knelt on the ground, his scarlet eyes returning to their normal color, filled with fear and confusion.

Lynn pulled out the greatsword that Lin Chen had disappeared from, which was stuck in the ground, and walked towards him step by step.

Montenegro involuntarily took a step back.

His foot scraped against the stone pavement, making a "sand" sound.

His momentum dissipated as soon as he retreated.

"Lynn, calm down," Black Mountain said, his voice tinged with panic.

How could they not panic? This madman was fighting a suicide attack, leaving himself no way out.

More importantly, this madman's strength is completely beyond the comprehension of ordinary people; it's simply freakish!

"We're both deeply wounded now, and neither of us can do anything to the other. Let's just drop this now, and we can discuss your son's matter."

"Discuss?" Lynn tilted her head. "That's not what you just said."

Heishan swallowed hard.

"Lynn, there's no need for us to fight to the death. We can have another son, but once we lose our lives, they're gone forever."

"I can back down on your Gray Feather family's affairs. The Witch Crystal Mine is yours, and Graystone City is yours too. My Black Fang family will withdraw, and we'll leave each other alone from now on."

"You're so generous, using my family's things to compensate me. There's no such thing as a free lunch." Lynn raised his greatsword and brandished it at Black Mountain.

"A wise man submits to circumstances," Heishan said. "You are still young and have a bright future ahead of you. There's no need to fight to the death over a mere offspring."

Lynn shook her head.

"How could you, a cold-blooded bastard, understand what family ties are? I'll settle the score with you about my son today."

As he spoke, he raised the greatsword high, ready to strike.

Black Mountain's expression changed:

"Lynn, don't push me too far. I'm a second-tier fighter, and I have some hidden skills. If it really comes down to a fight, you won't come out on top!"

"You want to risk your life?" Lynn laughed. "Are you worthy?"

Before he could finish speaking, Lynn's greatsword had already come crashing down.

The severe damage to his soul made it difficult for Black Mountain to cast spells, and he could barely manage to manipulate the surrounding shadows to block the greatsword.

Shadow blocked the attack, but Black Mountain was sent flying by the immense force of the greatsword, crashing into a tree by the roadside, which snapped in two with a "crack".

Lynn, however, paid no attention and continued walking forward step by step, carrying his greatsword.

Black Mountain rolled over and got up. Seeing that Lynn was not willing to let him go, a ruthless glint flashed in his eyes.

Kid, you're not the only one in this world who's willing to risk everything.

As a dark wizard, he too emerged from mountains of corpses and seas of bones, but the comfortable life he led over the years, built up his family, eroded his former fighting spirit.

It's truly laughable that now, a junior has used desperate tactics to drive us to the brink of despair.

Fine, fine, even if I have to use up my biggest trump card today, I'll teach this kid a lesson!

Heishan made a gesture with his right hand in front of him.

Endless, pure black mist surged from within his body, this time not condensing into a monster, but instead gathering entirely around him.

A layer of black armor grew from the skin's surface, covering the entire body.

That was his trump card, a battle armor formed from the essence of shadow, capable of withstanding even third-circle sorcery.

The source of shadow is the foundation of his power. He has been continuously condensing and nurturing it since he became a formal wizard, and has been nurturing it for decades.

It's really a waste to just use it up like this.

However, now that his soul is damaged, he can hardly use witchcraft, and this is the only way to break the deadlock.

"Lynn, you forced me to do this."

Black Mountain's voice carried a sinister tone mixed with a hint of exhilaration.

After using this move, Lynn would no longer be able to break through his defenses, while he could attack Lynn without any worries.

In this way, the outcome is already decided!
