Another World: When a Necromancer Possesses the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls

After receiving the order, Fritz turned his attention back to the battlefield, but the unease in his heart continued to grow.

After all, Li Xingyao's behavior was far too abnormal. This person was unlike any other professional in the Central Continent world, so Fritz wouldn't be surprised by anything he did now.

But what he feared even more was that what Li Xingyao was currently preparing might just be a deadly move that he simply couldn't withstand.

The outcome did not disappoint them; the 70,000 undead had been gathered around Li Xingyao.

Two hundred and fifty of them wielded divine artifacts, while the undead squads that had been gathered in the distance had formed layers of protective formations around him.

Those undead possessing divine artifacts were distributed in the innermost layer. The light from their artifacts intertwined under the sunlight to form a dazzling barrier, helping him defend against attacks from the Axis Empire's defenses.

When the tide of laws formed by these undead reached 3000 kilometers in front of the Axis Empire's defenses, Li Xingyao stretched out his hand, and a massive magic array appeared beside him amidst a teleportation beam. The ancient magic array of the Dragon Clan had once again appeared on the battlefield!

The third split of the soul avatar emerged from the center of the magic circle, its translucent form reflecting a strange halo in the sunlight.

Its appearance immediately activated all the energy circuits of the magic circle. The energy from the bodies of ten thousand undead surged into the core of the magic circle through the soul connection, and finally poured into the reality crystal in Li Xingyao's palm.

Upon seeing all this, Fritz Manstein's eyes widened suddenly, and his pupils contracted to the size of pinpoints the instant he saw the outline of the magic circle.

He recognized the magic circle—he had seen videos of previous battles, and the Imperial intelligence department had also described the shape and aura of that ancient dragon magic circle in detail in its report on Li Xingyao.

However, that magic circle had clearly been used in the previous battle, and according to the cooldown time calculated by the intelligence department, it was impossible for it to be activated again in such a short time.

"This... is impossible...!!!" Fritz roared, his voice trembling for the first time.

After realizing what was happening, he shouted a new order into the army's communications channel at an almost hoarse voice.

"Attention all units! Frontal view! Li Xingyao is preparing to launch a deadly attack!"

"All artifact wielders, immediately converge and attack directly in front! All defensive formations, concentrate your energy in the front direction!" But his orders came too late.

The defending troops on the front line were just being held back by the 70,000-strong undead army on the front. Most of the artifact wielders were scattered throughout the front line and could not gather and attack in a short time.

The deployment of those defensive formations also takes time, but Li Xingyao still didn't give them time this time.

The Reality Crystal emitted a dazzling dark golden light as it was infused with the energy of the magic array.

Using the power of the Reality Crystal, Li Xingyao's consciousness transformed into an invisible giant net, instantly covering the entire core defense line of the Axis Empire.

Then, he began to alter reality again.

Because the scale here is much larger than the previous two times, he modified the basic attributes of all the laws and powers on the defensive line, turning those laws and powers that were originally balanced and mutually restraining into the same attribute.

The power of the laws in the entire core area transformed from multiple to one in a very short time, and the energy imbalance reached a critical point in an instant.

Then, he set the modified power of the law to converge towards the center.

The core defensive line that the Axis Empire had cultivated for thousands of years suddenly began to collapse rapidly from the center inwards, under the watchful eyes of Fritz Manstein and all his garrison.

Those defensive formations were like ancient buildings worn down by time, and then the entire defensive line began to be squeezed, compressed, and broken from the outside in.

The law domains of those Saint-level guards collapsed one after another under the impact of the single-attribute law power. The law cores within their bodies could not maintain stability in the unbalanced energy environment and exploded one after another.

Fritz Manstein stood in the command center, watching the devastating energy surge toward him.

His domain of laws was already out of control under the power of the Reality Crystal, and the core of laws within his body had begun to tremble uncontrollably.

At that moment, he thought of his grandfather, Hermann Manstein, the old man whom Li Xingyao had erased in the same way.

In the final moments of his life, he finally understood his grandfather's feelings before he died.

That immense power, almost godlike, swept across the entire defensive line in less than ten breaths. When everything subsided, the core defensive line of the Axis Empire completely disappeared from the map.

Along with all the defenders on this line, all the magical artifacts, and Marshal Fritz Manstein, they vanished from this world forever.

After overcoming the penultimate obstacle, Li Xingyao led his undead legion to plunder energy-containing items and rare treasures in the core territory of the Axis Empire. By the time he arrived at the capital of the Axis Empire, it was already three days later.

At this point, apart from the 30,000 undead maintaining the magic array, the number of undead capable of fighting had exceeded 100,000, reaching a staggering 110,000.

After this period of nurturing, the number of undead bound to the artifacts has reached 430, excluding those whose attributes are truly incompatible! In addition, there are 40 undead in the Ruins of Return world that are currently undergoing the process of recognizing their masters with the artifacts.

In just three days, Li Xingyao's undead army swept across the core territory of the Axis Empire, advancing hundreds of thousands of kilometers.

The undead looted all the resources along the way, including items containing energy, precious ores, and medicinal herbs.

Those rare treasures that had been stored in the imperial treasury for countless years were sent to Li Xingyao's storage space.

At the same time, the ocean of soul power within the Soul Banner space continued to rise, and the souls absorbed from the battle were decomposed and purified one by one by the Chaos Divine Tree, turning into a reserve of pure soul power.

Over the course of three days, Li Xingyao's undead legion passed through dozens of core cities of the Axis Empire.

Most of the garrison troops in those cities had already withdrawn to the other side of the empire, and the massive population transfer had completely overwhelmed the teleportation network here.

Only a few troops that were unable to evacuate in time put up a brief resistance after the undead legion arrived.

However, such resistance is meaningless in the face of a Saint-level 9 undead, and they are often completely annihilated in a very short time.

A small number of civilians remained in the city, but Li Xingyao did not take action against them. Instead, he ordered the undead to keep them under guard and await further action.

As Li Xingyao hovered high in the sky above the capital of the Axis Empire, his gaze fell upon the tallest tower in the city center.

In that tower, which served as both the residence of the Axis Empire's royal family and the core of the empire's administration, another person was gazing at him from afar.
