Douluo Continent: Long Live the Spirit Hall

The Necromancer is a very interesting and powerful lineage in the Mad God Universe, with a very high cultivation ceiling, almost reaching the pinnacle of cultivation.

There is an upper limit to cultivation in the Mad God Universe. The two strongest God Kings and several first-level gods did not attain enlightenment through cultivation, but were created by the Father God of this world. Occasionally, cultivators reach the level of second-level and third-level gods, but there has never been a level above first-level gods.

Lei Xiang was able to become a newly promoted first-level god because the previous Mad God Theomandis chose to inherit the original power of the godhood, similar to the godhood inheritance in the Douluo God Realm, but at a greater cost. Theomandis, who inherited the godhood, perished, and it was only through the personal intervention of the Creator God that he was saved.

Below the six first-level gods, including Theomandis, and the two god-kings, the strongest are a series of second-level gods. Among the second-level gods, the strongest are the six elemental gods of the divine realm and the twelve witches of the underworld.

The six elemental gods joined forces to defeat the Archangel Sokot, a first-level deity of the heavens, while the twelve witches of the underworld joined forces to fight against the six first-level gods of the heavens.

Although the Twelve Witches of the Underworld were not as powerful as the six first-level gods, even Lucifer, the strongest of the first-level gods, admitted that he would be unable to defeat them if the six Twelve Witches of the Underworld joined forces.

If we convert it this way, the Twelve Witches of the Underworld are roughly on the same level as the Six Elemental Gods of the Celestial Realm. They are all superior to ordinary second-level gods but inferior to first-level gods.

Unlike the six elemental gods, each with their own path and attributes, the twelve underworld witches all follow the path of necromancers. This shows that the upper limit of this path is not low. Only those above the first-level gods of the Mad God Universe have limited positions; otherwise, they would have some chance of advancement.

"Master, are we going to find the guy who escaped next?"

The dark forest, scorched by the fire, was now sweltering. Sweating profusely, Mo Yue clung to Yan's body. This was clearly inappropriate; otherwise, the two would have already rolled around together. Having regained some of her composure, Mo Yue dared not continue teasing him and quickly tried to distract him to ensure her safety.

Yan found Mo Yue's little scheme amusing, and savoring it slowly was quite enjoyable. He lifted Mo Yue's fair and soft chin, smiled, and said, "So what if the little mouse escaped? We can just find another one."

"But, Little Moon, your master is a little hungry now. What should I do?"

"Owner……"

With each call of "Master," Mo Yue felt more and more connected and emotional. Amidst the sweltering heat, the clothes on the two of them vanished into the flames, and Yan tried out a unique form of demon fighting.

However, he didn't go too far. After a brief taste, they found a pool and took a proper bath together. Of course, the enjoyment they experienced was something that couldn't be explained to outsiders. It can only be said that Mo Yue truly deserves to be called the first female lead in "The Mad God," as certain aspects of her story were incredibly exciting.

Chapter 649 The Beastman Capital

Orc Empire, Imperial Capital.

In the central area of ​​the imperial capital, there are several mansions of considerable size. These are the residences of the great nobles of the Orc Empire, and among them, the Behemoth Royal Palace stands out as particularly special.

The Behemoth Royal Palace is the residence of the chieftains of the Behemoth clan, the first race in the Orc Empire. Orcs are generally much larger than humans, and the Behemoths are two to three times larger than ordinary orcs. Therefore, everything in the Behemoth Royal Palace is larger than ordinary mansions, only slightly smaller than the palace of the Orc King.

"Demons? Who are you looking for?"

The guards of the Behemoth Royal Palace watched the man and woman before them warily. The man had fiery red hair, while the woman had dark purple hair, both with obvious demonic features. From the perspective of orc aesthetics, apart from being a bit too thin, they were otherwise quite acceptable.

What alarmed the Behemoth Royal Guards even more was the faint aura of dark magic emanating from the woman. They were all battle-hardened elites of the Behemoth race, having fought on the battlefield and encountered the demon elites; they knew very well that such people belonged to the absolute upper echelons of the demon race.

The arrival of the demons at the Behemoth Royal Palace was somewhat unexpected. Don't demon envoys usually go directly to the imperial city to visit the Beast King? However, these few were just guards, and even if they had doubts, they dared not act rashly.

“I’m looking for Lei Xiang. You guys go and tell him that he owes someone a favor, and that he should pay it back.”

Yan stepped forward and said something in a low voice. After hearing his words, the Behemoth guards present were even more confused. Among the many sons of the Behemoth King, Lei Xiang was a very special one. Some time ago, after being appointed as the deputy commander of the Behemoth Legion and returning to the Behemoth Royal Palace, he caused quite a stir.

Because Lei Xiang was involved, the Behemoth warriors dared not delay in hearing Yan's words. One of the guards quickly turned and went into the mansion to report. Soon, someone came from inside the mansion, but the person who came was not Lei Xiang, but an extremely large Behemoth warrior.

"Hello, I'm Lei Xiang's older brother, Lei Long. Are you Lei Xiang's friends?"

This Behemoth warrior, who called himself Brother Lei Xiang, was over five meters tall, a size larger than the average Behemoth warrior, and his aura was quite impressive.

Yan frowned when he saw Lei Long. "Lei Xiang isn't here? How did he know I was looking for him? He wouldn't dare leave me waiting outside. Where did he go?"

Lei Long scratched his head. "Well, Lei Xiang has important business to attend to and has left the Orcish Royal City. If you want to find him, you'll probably have to wait a while."

"trouble."

Yan was not satisfied with Lei Long's answer and turned to leave with Mo Yue. However, at that moment, an aura from within the Behemoth Royal Palace locked onto them, or more precisely, onto Mo Yue.

A rough voice suddenly came from behind Lei Long, "A fallen angel of women? You must be Mo Yue, the little princess most favored by the Demon Emperor."

“Father, they are Lei Xiang’s friends, and they have come to see Lei Xiang.”

Lei Long seemed quite afraid of this person, but still explained for Yan and Mo Yue. From his words, it could be deduced that this powerful Behemoth warrior was the strongest of the orcs, King Leo of the Behemoths.

Leo stared intently at Yan. "You are from the Dragon God Empire. I never expected you to be so bold. The Demon Emperor specially sent an envoy to my Beastman Empire to help find this little princess, and you actually came to our Behemoth Royal Palace like this."

"And then, King Behemoth, you take yourself and the Orc Empire too seriously. Of all the Orc Empire, only Lei Xiang can make me care a little. Even if I knew the Demon Emperor's orders, I wouldn't take you seriously."

Yan's words instantly ignited the anger of all the Behemoths. Leo, who had been smiling, turned grim. In the next instant, a massive fist rapidly expanded in Yan's vision.

“Boom!

! ”

Leo, as expected of the strongest in the Orc Empire, was at least at the level of a Sword Saint. However, he was nothing to Yan. When the fist and palm of the large and small collided, a terrifying shock wave spread out with the sound of explosion.

The street where the Behemoth Royal Palace was located erupted with a loud bang and shook as if struck by lightning from a clear sky. Especially at the entrance, a large number of Behemoth warriors collapsed. Apart from Yan and Leo, only Lei Long and Mo Yue were still standing.

"Father."

After the terrifying energy dissipated, Lei Long witnessed an extremely shocking scene: his father, Leo, the strongest of the orc race, was actually panting heavily and kneeling on one knee in front of Yan, his millstone-sized fist easily covered by a palm.

“I told you, you’re not someone I take seriously, Leo.”

Yan exerted a little force with his palm, and Leo's fist, which was as big as a millstone, gradually deformed. During this process, Leo's expression became ferocious, but he endured the pain and did not scream.

"Father."

Lei Long noticed Lei Ao's distorted expression and naturally understood that his father was definitely not in good condition. He rushed to Yan's side, but instead of taking action, he anxiously pleaded, "Lei Xiang's friend, I beg you to stop for Lei Xiang's sake!"

He was somewhat quick-witted. Seeing that even his father was no match for Yan, he realized that directly attacking him was pointless. So he used Lei Xiang's name to beg for mercy.

"Hmph! I'll let you off the hook because of Lei Xiang's influence, though it's not really that important. But since I still need you this time, I'll spare you."

Yan casually flicked his wrist, and Leo, covered in sweat, stumbled backward and crashed into the outer wall of the palace. Lei Long quickly went over and helped him up.

"Who...who exactly are you?"

Leo wiped the bloodstains from the corner of his mouth. A trickle of black blood flowed not only from the corner of his mouth, but also from his nostrils and ears. However, he did not pay much attention to his injuries, but was concerned about the origin of Yan.

He was the strongest in the Orc Empire, with strength comparable to the two four-winged fallen angels of the Demon Race and the three marshals of the Dragon God Empire. He was considered one of the strongest in the human world. However, he couldn't even last a single move against Yan, which was something that shocked him.

Yan did not answer Leo's question, but coldly replied, "You don't need to know so much. I'll spare your life on the premise that you are still useful. Make arrangements to take me into the palace to meet the Beastman King. You can inform him about my situation in advance. I don't care about these things."

"Lei Long, go to the palace first."

Leo's expression darkened further, but he didn't say much in the end. He gave his eldest son a few instructions and then sent him to the palace. Whether he was there to deliver a message or to do something else was unknown.

"Come with me!"

After Lei Long left, Leo simply sat down on the ground at the entrance of the palace and circulated his internal energy to recover from his injuries. Once his injuries had gradually subsided, he opened his eyes, stood up, greeted Yan and Mo Yue, and then led them to the Orc Royal Palace.

"King Leo, hello."

The guards of the Orc Royal Palace were clearly familiar with King Leo of Bimmon, and they bowed very respectfully when they saw him.

“My son Leilong should have already met His Majesty.”

Leo didn't shy away from Yan and directly asked about what had happened since the arrival of the Thunder Dragon. During the time he was recovering from his injuries, he had thought a lot and knew that Yan's strength was far beyond what the Orc Empire could afford to provoke. The best option was actually to cooperate and meet the other party's demands.

At this moment, another guard came out of the palace and bowed very respectfully to Leo, "King Leo, His Majesty invites you."

The guard seemed to know something as well. Before turning around to lead the way, he glanced at Yan and Moyue. Seeing this, Leo didn't say anything more and followed the guard to lead the way. The group arrived deep in the palace and entered a magnificent palace.

The architecture of the Orc Empire can only be described as magnificent, as it is too rugged and tall. The interior decorations are definitely not luxurious or exquisite. However, the Orc King's palace is still quite magnificent, with golden decorations everywhere.

As Yan and Moyue entered the palace with Leo, a deep and steady voice came from directly in front of them, "Leo, no need for formalities, we brothers don't need to put on airs."

Yan followed the sound and found the Orc King on the throne next to the Thunder Dragon. The Orc King was a lion-man, with a magnificent body clad in a python robe and jade belt, and a gleaming golden crown on his head.

While Yan was looking at him, he was also sizing up Yan and Mo Yue. This orc king's strength was not bad, slightly inferior to Leo. To be able to become king among orcs, he must have something extraordinary about him.

"Hello, distinguished guest from afar."

After observing for a moment, the Beastman King nodded very politely to Yan and Mo Yue, without the slightest airs. If it weren't for Leo's actions just now, it would be hard to imagine that he was one of the rulers at the top of the power structure of the Jin Yuan Continent.

The Beastman King then greeted Mo Yue, saying, "Princess Mo Yue, your father truly loves you and has written to me many times asking for my help in finding you."

Mo Yue glanced at him and, seeing that he showed no displeasure, understood that he didn't care about these things. So she replied softly, "Your Majesty, if you may, please tell my father that I am fine and that he need not worry."

"Yes, I will send someone to inform His Majesty the Demon Emperor."

The Orc King responded gently, then his gaze fell on Yan again. "Honorable guest, may I ask what brings you to my Orc Empire? If you are looking for Lei Xiang, then you will indeed have to wait a while."

Since Lei Xiang returned, he's been working tirelessly for the development of our Beastman Empire. He's not currently in the capital, so it will take some time for him to return.

The Beastman King spoke with a smile, and there was no hostility in his words. He seemed to care about Yan quite a bit.

Yan didn't pay much attention to the goodwill shown by the Orc King, and said in a calm tone, "Orc King, you don't need to worry too much. I don't have much hostility towards you. I came to the Orc Empire mainly to find traces of the necromancer lineage."

Chapter 650 Undead Legacy

"A necromancer? How could there be a necromancer within the borders of my orc kingdom?"

When Yan mentioned necromancers, the Orc King's reaction was relatively normal, but Leo couldn't help but exclaim in surprise first.

This Behemoth king, who had weathered many storms, seemed to have a very deep impression of the necromancer. He couldn't help but cough as he spoke, clearly indicating that the change in his emotions had caused his injuries to relapse.

"King Leo, are you alright?"

The Orc King expressed concern for Leo's injuries. Whether this was a tactic of a superior or genuine concern, at least he showed his attitude.

"Your Majesty, thank you for your concern. My injuries are not serious."

Leo waved his hand to indicate that he was alright, then quickly added, "Regarding the matter of the necromancer, I feel that it cannot be neglected. I don't know if you still remember how my father, the previous Behemoth King, died."

The Beastman King's eyes revealed a look of reminiscence, "The previous Behemoth King, I remember he was the strongest in my Beastman Empire at the time, even the four-winged fallen angels of the same generation were no match for him."

His passing was quite sudden, causing a nationwide uproar. Could it be that his death was related to the necromancer?

As the Orc King finished speaking, he became serious. He knew that there were necromancers within the Orc Empire, since chaos was the main theme of the Orc Kingdom, and the strong physiques of the Orcs were more suitable for necromancy than ordinary humans and demons.

However, successive orc kings harbored ambitions to recruit necromancers, so they kept a lot of related information secret. Even the high-ranking officials and chieftains of the orc empire were mostly unaware that such powerful figures were hiding in the shadows within the empire.

Most of these necromancers are quite powerful and have strange abilities. The Orc King only knows about them and has not actually recruited many of them. He never expected that the death of the previous Behemoth King, who died in his prime, was related to necromancers.

"His Majesty."

At this moment, Leo spoke again, a hint of fear flashing in his huge eyes. Clearly, the necromancer had left an indelible impression on him. "I specifically collected information about necromancers after my father's death."

The strongest among the necromancers are called necromancers, powerful beings who are almost otherworldly, and there probably aren't any left now.

When I was young, my father and I encountered a high-ranking necromancer. My father fought him and killed the necromancer, but he was also cursed by him and died not long after returning home.

The training of necromancers is related to death and requires the slaughter of a large number of living beings. Compared with the orderly Dragon God Empire and the Demon Race, the situation in our Orc Empire is too chaotic, which is indeed an environment that easily attracts necromancers.

"Your Majesty, this matter must be taken seriously. The necromancers' abilities are strange and malevolent; we cannot allow them to secretly slaughter the warriors of our Orcish Empire."

“Leo, the Orc King is aware of all that you’ve said. He knows about the necromancers’ practice in seclusion within the Orc Empire and has even tried to recruit them. As far as I know, his Shadow Mage is a necromancer. Am I right, Your Majesty?”
