Full-Time Magister: Dark Lord

"The Punishment of Thunder - The Prohibition of the Nine Commandments!"

A thunder halberd first appeared in Zhu Meng's hand, and the moment it was thrown, it suddenly transformed into nine thunder god halberds, which directly planted themselves around the corpse on the mountain peak...

"Rumble..."

The power of thunder caused the mountain corpse to roar in pain... but this thousand-year-old corpse was only injured, which did not mean that it had lost its fighting ability.

Just as everyone was about to make a move, the enormous fist swung out again.

A deafening "Boom!" resounded, and the next moment, the lightning halberd was shattered... Although the power of lightning is the strongest destructive force among the elements, unfortunately, even the lightning-laid mine array could not stop the mountain corpse's advance.

Blood was constantly gushing from the mountain-sized body, but the mountain corpse seemed to feel nothing and continued its attack.

Several high-level mages unleashed a barrage of attacks, but unfortunately, this guy was as tough as iron and utterly fearless.

"Get out of the way!!!"

The moment Cao Le was enveloped in black energy, he shouted.

Zhu Meng and the others were all taken aback upon hearing this.

The moment they turned around, they saw a huge black mist that had completely obscured the darkness of the sky and was spreading rapidly toward them. Upon closer inspection, they realized that the black mist was actually a person wearing black and red armor.

Because Cao Le was armed to the teeth, they really didn't know who this person who suddenly appeared was.

However, in that brief moment of hesitation, the black mist had completely obscured the sky above them, and Cao Le had already arrived in front of the mountain corpse.

"boom!!!"

The corpse of the mountain peak swung its fist at Cao Le, who swung his sword to meet it. The moment they collided, the earth shook violently!

Their collision was so powerful that it sent everyone, including the nearby rotting corpses, undead, and the leader of the flesh mound, flying back several miles.

The high-level mages were alright, but the guard mages were almost all seriously injured...

As for the undead, they were all reduced to ashes almost instantly.

"Shadow Erosion - Blade of Limit Break!"

After the clash ended, Cao Le's black greatsword absorbed all the surrounding dark power, and a shadow of a greatsword, no smaller than the Demon-Slaying Sword, condensed in his hand.

As the giant sword slashed down, even the corpses on the mountain peaks felt a sense of destruction!

But at this point, even if it wanted to escape, it had absolutely no chance.

"Ughhhhh!!!"

The mountain corpse roared, clasping its fists together, causing the space around it to tremble....

He slammed his fist upwards, directly facing the giant dark sword!

"Bang~!"

"boom!!!!"

...

150. Return to the city

After the black greatsword shattered one of the mountain corpse's arms, it stopped directly at its shoulder. If it hadn't been for its other giant hand gripping the blade tightly, it might have already struck down!

Even so, under the pressure of Cao Le's sword strike, he still managed to kneel on one knee with a "thud"...

The massive storm swept away many more of the spirits that had come to their aid, sending them sprawling into the distance...

Although Cao Le came with the intention of killing with a single strike, no matter how much power he gathered, he couldn't bring himself to cut even an inch further...

Moreover, this big guy even seemed to be trying to stand up!

Despite being severely damaged by the ancient capital's military command and subjected to repeated bombings, it was unexpected that the enemy still had considerable strength remaining...

As expected, compared to a Great Monarch, killing a Supreme Monarch was still very difficult for him.

Cao Le knew that the Shadow King's power was not continuous and that he could not kill him in a short time. Once he exhausted his power, as a high-level mage, the Mountain Corpse could crush him in no time.

Cao Le immediately withdrew the shadow of the giant sword and retreated to Zhu Meng and the others.

Zhu Meng asked, somewhat puzzled, "Your Excellency, why not take this opportunity to kill it here in one fell swoop?"

"Is it really that easy to kill? How has it survived until now?" Cao Le asked rhetorically.

"you...."

His words completely surprised Zhu Meng!

He recognized the voice so well that he looked at him and asked, "Are you Cao Le??"

"Who else could it be but me?" Cao Le replied.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Meng was at a loss for words.

He truly couldn't imagine how Cao Le could still possess such power.

No wonder this guy dared to go against me before...

"Han Ji is back. Let's retreat. We'll wait for the results from within the Abyss of Fiends." Cao Le said after feeling his dark power gradually dissipate.

Although Zhu Meng wanted to kill the corpse of the mountain peak, he gave up after seeing it stand up again with such a powerful aura.

Even though the opponent was badly injured, the power of Cao Le's sword strike was such that even an unharmed monarch might not be able to withstand it, yet the opponent did, and did not die.

In this situation, taking the risk is really not worth it...

"I'll clear the way."

Even if they wanted to retreat, it wouldn't be easy, as there were countless dead bodies both in front and behind them.

While a high-level mage might not be of much use against a supreme monarch like the Corpse of the Mountain, it's a different story with these commander-level undead, as well as the undead generals and servants.

While it may not be possible to instantly kill a commander, a barrage of high-level magic can still eliminate thousands of generals and servants.

Several high-level mages unleashed their star palaces one after another, quickly creating an opening in the dense mass of undead.

Upon seeing this, everyone retraced their steps.

Cao Le was not in a hurry to leave with them. Unlike Mo Fan, he had necromancy, so he could absorb the essence and remnants of these monsters and keep them for himself, regardless of whether he killed them or not.

Most importantly, most people wouldn't even notice it.

After collecting a large number of fragments and essences, he looked around. Apart from the densely packed undead, there was almost no magical radiance left.

Clearly, of the troops that left the city earlier, only these people remain.

He knew very well that war always involved sacrifices, so he didn't hesitate and joined the main force to fight his way back into the inner city.

During his journey, he also absorbed a lot of remnants and essences.

When they arrived outside the inner city barrier, they saw that the undead had once again surrounded the entire ancient capital.

With their path blocked, the high-level mages were already exhausted, and the effort of clearing the way had taken an even greater toll. Yet, they were still able to return safely. But it was a different story for the high-level and mid-level mages; they still needed to fight their way through.

Just when everyone was in a dilemma, Cao Le suddenly jumped into the pile of undead...

"Dark Prison Meteor Fist - Nine Dragons!"

"Bang bang bang...."

"Bang bang bang...."

"..."

The moment that dark hellfire rose from the ground, it was as if underground magma had erupted in front of the city!

In that instant, thousands of souls were reduced to corpses, leaving not a single one alive...

When Han Ji arrived, he saw that everyone had stopped and hurriedly said, "What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and get back to the city!"

Han Ji was responsible for escorting Mo Fan and the others to the very end, to prevent Salang from attacking them. He didn't fight the mountain corpses, but instead focused on dealing with the undead army from behind. Otherwise, Cao Le wouldn't have needed to lift a finger against the undead in front.

Hunter King Du Xiao was the first to come to his senses, and then he rushed towards the inner city wall.

Next came the high-level mages, hunter mages, and guard mages on the ground. However, regardless of which faction's mages they were, almost all suffered heavy casualties; some died at the hands of the mountain corpses, while others were drowned in the sea of ​​the dead.

"Phew, thank God, you've finally returned safely."

Seeing everyone return to the inner city wall one by one, the staff officer in charge of the garrison breathed a sigh of relief.

He was actually quite surprised when he looked at Cao Le...

After all, he had been suppressed and beaten all along, and even felt that he was finished, but he did not expect that he would eventually kill a dead king.

The mysterious gray-haired man then told everyone that at the clock tower, the village chief of Weiju Village seemed to have something that allowed them to see what was inside the tomb.

Then the group left and headed towards the clock tower.

Cao Le wasn't particularly interested in this, so he sat cross-legged on the inner city wall and rested.

The power of darkness has dissipated, and it seems the Shadow King needs some time to recuperate.

He had been expending a great deal of energy, but when the power of the Shadow King was fully under his control, his energy was restored almost instantly.

It's now completely intact!

If it weren't for the fear of Jiuyou and the realization that his power had vanished and then reappeared, Cao Le wouldn't want to return to the inner city walls right now. After all, what others see as a vast army of undead outside is, in his eyes, a land of gold and silver!

pity....

Even though it's gold and silver, I can't take it right now, and I'm incredibly frustrated.

Fortunately, his previous gains were quite substantial. He had already upgraded 49 Shadow Stars to Level 5, as well as 49 Fire Stars to Level 5, and the same was true for Space Stars. The rest were all poured into his Soul Weapon.

Currently, all of my intermediate skills have reached level five. As for my high-level star spirit, I am still slowly completing the evolution to level four. This kind of thing cannot be rushed. Moreover, there are so many demons in the world. In the future, let alone level four or five, even level six or seven should not be too much of a problem.

.....

151. Requesting the feather robe.

The once arrogant mountain corpse has now retreated to the Abyss of Evil, as if it can recuperate there.

He hadn't rested for long when he saw some silver vortexes appearing in the sky.

After the vortex appeared, it carried some of the undead away from the ancient capital...

Judging from this situation, it seems that Gouzi and his companions have already survived a near-death experience.
