Unfortunately, the area is a plain, and large rocks are hard to find.

Otherwise, continuing the fight wouldn't be out of the question!

With a casual move, he could wipe out a hundred or eighty undead in one wave. Why would he need to run?

Unfortunately, without a sufficiently advantageous terrain, even with his immense power, he couldn't unleash his full potential.

Therefore, he had no choice but to fight while searching for advantageous terrain.

It wasn't really an escape; it was a tactical retreat!

"Ughhhhh!!!"

"Ughhhhh!!!"

"..."

However, as they ran, it felt like they had stumbled into a den of the dead...

A large number of undead appeared out of nowhere and blocked his way!

Moreover, the number of people surrounding them seems to be in the thousands. There are even about twenty or thirty corpse generals and skeleton warriors among them.

"Boom!!"

"Boom!!"

In a nearby cave, a commander-in-chief, a bladed skeleton, also awoke and emerged from the cave.

This is a commander-level undead!

Encountering a commander-level undead outside the ancient capital is not surprising, after all, this place becomes a paradise for the undead at night.

But he never imagined that he would stumble into a land of the dead with a ruler in charge.

"Yu Jin!"

Although he was not incapable of handling a commander-level opponent, he could still fight thanks to his powerful mental strength and the amplified power of darkness.

But the skeletons of the warriors and servants, and the rotting corpses around here, they're not just sitting around doing nothing either!

Even if I have designs on a commander-level undead, I might not actually be able to fight one...

He never tries to show off unless he's trying to be tough.

After Yu Jin appeared, he prepared to pay his respects...

"Stop, stop, stop. You should take a look at the situation first," Cao Le interrupted him, reminding him.

Although the combat power inherited from ancient times is quite appealing, Cao Le was puzzled by the fact that they would kneel down at the drop of a hat and fail to see the situation clearly.

What era are we living in? Why are they still doing this kind of thing?

Moreover, as an old man who has been dead for nearly a thousand years, bowing to him all the time is practically like shortening one's lifespan.

Yu Jin still insisted on bowing, and then said, "My lord, do not panic. With me, Yu Jin, here, these petty villains are nothing to worry about!"

As soon as Yu Jin finished speaking, he drew a large sword from his waist and slammed it into the ground with a loud thud!

"Ughhhhhh!!"

"Ughhhhhh!!!"

The instant the blade sank into the ground, screams erupted from beneath the surface...

Upon hearing this, Cao Le was taken aback.

Beneath the once flat soil, one after another, ghost soldiers dressed in ancient attire emerged from the ground!

The number of these ghost soldiers was nearly two to three times that of the undead surrounding them!

"kill!"

At Yu Jin's command, the ghost soldiers brandished their spears and began hacking and slashing at the walking corpses surrounding them.

Just a moment ago we were surrounded, but in the blink of an eye the situation changed.

The ghost soldiers summoned by Yu Jin were almost all servant-level, but their combat power was quite formidable. Moreover, even if they were no match for those general-level undead, they could still turn the tables and kill them by coordinating with some battle formations!

Yu Jin then charged towards the bladed skull, wielding his broadsword.

In other places, the Blade Skeleton would probably turn and run away in the face of this kind of formation.

Even undead that have reached the level of a commander aren't fools who blindly want to continue dying. If the situation turns against them, they'll turn and run, but this is their graveyard; how can they escape?

Although the Blade Skeleton was enormous, it only lasted a minute in Yu Jin's battle before Yu Jin shattered its undead crystal.

Almost instantly, the Blade Skeleton's undead crystal shattered...

The undead who had besieged Cao Le were all reduced to fluorescent specks that floated to Cao Le's necromantic realm...

From being surrounded to annihilating them, it took only half an hour.

After all the undead here had been exterminated and their remnants and essences collected, Cao Le asked, "Yu Jin, how can you still summon such well-trained ghost soldiers?"

That's right, these ghost soldiers are almost all very well-trained; they are not just mindless, charging zombies.

Judging from the coordination of a dozen or so soldiers killing a single general, it's clear that these undead are all seasoned veterans!

“My lord, these are the Qingzhou soldiers under my command. They have followed me for thousands of years without ever taking a day off. Even amidst the sword, they are constantly training,” Yu Jin replied.

In your knife?

Cao Le was a little confused...

“That’s right, and it’s not just me who possesses ghost soldiers; Generals Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, and Zhang He also possess ghost soldiers. But…” Yu Jin hesitated for a moment as he spoke.

"Just say what you want to say, don't be so wishy-washy," Cao Le said, displeased.

Whether in his past life or this one, he hates people who talk in a slow, drawn-out way the most.

"My lord, with your current strength, only I can summon your troops. If it were the other generals, you would probably need to expend your own magical energy to do so," Yu Jin quickly replied truthfully.

Although he put it very tactfully, if Cao Le couldn't tell that he was talking about how bad he was, he wouldn't have the nerve to stay in the business!

"Alright, let's go back to the ancient capital. You can come along the way. I just had a fierce battle, and my mana is running low." Cao Le clearly didn't want to continue talking about this and changed the subject.

...

127. Back to Shanghai

Yu Jin accompanied them on the rest of the journey, and even when the undead encountered them, they never came to attack.

It wasn't because they were afraid of Yu Jin, but because Yu Jin used a secret technique to help Cao Le conceal his aura.

Therefore, even the dead would not harbor any hostility towards him.

When the sun rose and the sky was bright, Cao Le finally recalled Yu Jin and continued his return to the ancient capital without any pause.

Finally, before nightfall, he arrived at the ancient capital...

The trip to the tomb, though somewhat perilous, showed a significant change in him both on and off the way there.

Upon returning to his hotel, Cao Le immediately collapsed into a deep sleep...

...

night.

After Cao Le woke up, he contacted Mu Bai and told him that he was back.

When he went to the mausoleum, he didn't tell Mu Bai the truth. He just said he wanted to take a walk outside the ancient capital.

Mu Bai originally advised against him going out to wander around, after all, outside the ancient capital, there were ghosts everywhere, and someone like Cao Le who was unfamiliar with the place would inevitably be in danger.

However, Cao Le had legs, and even if Mu Bai wanted to stop him, he had already left that night.

This departure lasted for a full half month, and Mu Bai finally breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing news of Cao Le.

However, he also has his own academic tasks to complete recently, so he said he wouldn't be coming to see Cao Le anymore.

Cao Le didn't pay any attention to this.

After telling Mu Bai about it, he incorporated all the necromantic essences he had obtained into the magical artifact.

It evolved by consuming dark creatures, so the help of the undead essence was obviously greater. With the essence fused together, the essence that exploded, and the remnant essence of the commander last night, Cao Le's spirit weapon was upgraded to the Soul level in one go!

The magical artifact itself remained unchanged, but he could sense that its power had changed dramatically.

I can say that I owe my rapid improvement to Luo Mian.

If it weren't for this scumbag's sufficient dark energy, even if the ancient capital were to be thoroughly plundered, it might not have been possible for the spiritual weapon to advance into a soul weapon so quickly, right?

The purpose of coming to the ancient capital has been achieved.

Now that I have a new department, it's time to go back to school.

To be honest, he hadn't expected this harvest to end so quickly. He'd only been here for less than a month, and he'd already upgraded his spiritual weapon by a level. And now, returning would be just in time for the new semester. His Shadow and Space magic had both reached advanced levels; all he needed now was to control the Stars.

He hadn't yet studied this newly awakened fire element. It seemed that Yu Jin had mentioned that his fire element was related to the fusion of the Xiahou brothers and the Yama Demon Armor.

Originally, the high-level third system should have been forcibly awakened as the necromancy system, but this extra system was an accident.

However, no matter what, having one more department is always a good thing.

As for whether it is truly special, we'll have to wait until we've mastered all seven stars to find out.

Cao Le came and went in a hurry...

...

Even though it was already night when I left the airport, Shanghai was still bustling with people.

This is definitely the place that feels like a city!

Before the siren invaded, Shanghai was definitely one of the safest cities in China.

Cao Le originally planned to go to Nestlé, but considering it was a holiday and he figured his two beloved concubines wouldn't be there, he headed straight for Liu Xian's residence.

As for Cao Ying...

Since entering the magic university and rekindling her relationship with Tang Yue, that girl has been entirely taken care of by her. Even when she's away on missions, the school looks after her.

As the older brother, he was very relieved.

I call her every now and then to say hello, and other than that, I visit her when I have time.
