Chapter 499: Divine-Level Formation! Careless!
Crossing the Wind and Thunder Sea for the second time, Lin Moyu found that the lightning had decreased and weakened. He speculated that this might be related to the fall of the Thunder God.
As the lightning diminished, the wind seemed to have increased significantly.
In just a few days, the Wind and Thunder Sea had been dominated by the wind.
Not only the Wind and Thunder Sea but also the Wind and Thunder Continent had seen a significant increase in wind.
At the former Dragon Clan base, a secret realm was shining in mid-air.
Outside it, the area was filled with deadly poison.
Originally, the poison covered a range of 10 kilometers, but after being burned by the Fire Spirit Demon King, the poison had shrunk to a range of three kilometers, much smaller.
The poison came from the essence blood of the Poison God, a mid-level deity much stronger than the Fire Spirit Demon King.
However, a drop of essence blood, without a continuous source, had no lasting power, which is why it was burned away by the Fire Spirit Demon King.
If the Poison God were here, a single drop of poison would have caused the Fire Spirit Demon King to die on the spot.
Even after ten days, the poison showed no signs of dissipating, and no one knew how long it would last. Even Lin Moyu, the one who caused it, was unsure.
Because of this, Lin Moyu did not use the Poison Lich in the battle at the ancient city.
Otherwise, the lingering poison would have affected the ancient city and the human professionals inside.
If he had used it, the sergeant badge on his shoulder would have gained another star, making him a four-star Divine General, which was not a dream.
The Ice Flame Demon King killed by the God-Slaying Thunder did not give Lin Moyu any experience or general stars.
Lin Moyu didn't mind. Killing a Demon King, no matter the method, was a good thing.
Lin Moyu returned to the secret realm and flew straight into the poison.
Inside the secret realm, the poison was just as pervasive.
Centered around the entrance, the poison covered a range of five kilometers.
Lin Moyu entered the secret realm, appearing at the center of the poison.
With 100% poison element immunity, he could move freely in the poison without any concerns.
"There are traces of corpses."
Lin Moyu saw signs of corrosion on the ground, indicating that Dragon Clan members had been poisoned to death and then completely corroded by the poison, leaving burn marks on the ground.
There were many such marks, forming a line.
It was clear that the Dragon Clan had stationed an army at the entrance of the secret realm.
"This army should be puppet warriors. They are not afraid of death and did not flee."
"After such a long time, the Dragon Clan members inside the secret realm have probably escaped."
The likelihood of the Dragon Clan escaping was high, but Lin Moyu remained cautious.
Stories of being caught off guard are common, and Lin Moyu learned from history.
Leaving the poison area, Lin Moyu summoned the undead army.
With the Lightning Undead Wings, two units of the undead army flew in all directions.
As the undead army searched, the general layout of the area gradually formed in Lin Moyu's mind.
Lin Moyu flew high into the sky, overlooking the secret realm.
The secret realm was vast, containing an entire mountain range stretching for hundreds of kilometers.
This was the largest secret realm Lin Moyu had ever seen.
"In such a large secret realm, there should be native creatures."
"Did the Dragon Clan kill all the native creatures?"
As he ventured deeper, Lin Moyu saw traces left by the Dragon Clan in the mountains.
There were fortress-like buildings abandoned in the forest.
The forest showed signs of destruction, indicating a great battle had taken place.
Based on the information gathered, it seemed the Dragon Clan had fought a great battle with the native creatures of the secret realm and won.
Then, the Dragon Clan built an airborne fortress outside the secret realm, with an army guarding it, intending to keep the secret realm firmly in their control.
Lin Moyu felt his guess was correct. The secret realm must contain a great secret. Otherwise, after gaining the benefits of the secret realm, the Dragon Clan would have left long ago instead of sealing it off completely.
Continuing forward, after several hundred kilometers, the mountains began to branch off, forming a canyon.
The Wind and Thunder Continent's terrain is full of canyons and pools, and the secret realm is no exception.
This canyon was enormous, with a depth of tens of kilometers, larger than the Burial Thunder Valley.
If it weren't in the center of the mountains, it would be more appropriate to call it a plain rather than a canyon.
In the canyon, there was a pool about a hundred meters in diameter, surrounded by various buildings.
Such pools were common in the Wind and Thunder Continent.
Lin Moyu didn't see anything special about the pool.
The Dragon Clan had built a military base around the pool.
Lin Moyu stopped at a distance, finding the area quiet and deserted.
Judging by the traces left behind, the Dragon Clan had left in a hurry.
Lin Moyu carefully examined the buildings, noticing some clues from their appearance.
Some buildings looked like factories.
Lin Moyu was now 100% certain that the secret of the Dragon Clan's ability to mass-produce puppet warriors must be here.
However, the Dragon Clan had left, likely taking or destroying the information.
"I wonder if anything is left!"
The skeletons had already gone ahead, searching every corner.
A large number of skeletons flew in all directions.
After a thorough search, they found nothing in the buildings or the surrounding area.
Many places showed signs of burning.
"So clean!"
"Did they really leave nothing behind?"
Lin Moyu slowly descended, and as soon as he touched the ground, he felt a tremendous pressure.
"Not good!"
His expression changed as he looked up to see a massive formation in the sky.
The Abyss is known for its barriers, and the Dragon Clan is known for its formations.
This formation was hidden in the sky using special methods, and Lin Moyu hadn't noticed it.
The moment he touched the ground, the formation was activated.
A tremendous pressure fell from above, making it difficult for Lin Moyu to breathe.
With a loud explosion, the entire military base blew up.
A terrifying force swept through, and Lin Moyu was thrown by the massive shockwave.
The skeletal armor shattered instantly, and the explosive force hit Lin Moyu heavily.
The Lich Generals immediately began frantic healing.
But the force was too strong, a mix of physical and elemental attacks, reaching the level of a god.
This was a divine-level formation, with attack power comparable to a pseudo-god.
Lin Moyu could feel his undead army suffering unimaginable damage, and the Lich Generals couldn't keep up with the healing.
The explosions continued, and the shockwaves hit him like waves.
At this rate, the undead army wouldn't hold out.
"I was careless!"
He had only released three units of the undead army, with only three Lich Generals outside. Their healing couldn't keep up.
If he had released the entire undead army and kept them outside the formation, there would have been no problem.
But now, at the center of the formation's explosion, if he released the undead army, the skeletons would share the damage and die even faster.
In the continuous explosions, Lin Moyu was like a candle in the wind, blown around.
The formation struck the ground repeatedly, destroying everything within it.
Lin Moyu gritted his teeth and shouted, the rune on the back of his right hand glowing.
**Skill: Power Gathering!**
His mental power connected with the entire undead army, and Lin Moyu's attributes soared to the limit.
His constitution increased from over 90,000 to 1 million, a more than tenfold increase, drastically boosting his defense.
The damage immediately lessened, giving the Lich Generals time to breathe.
Lin Moyu finally stabilized his position and looked up to see hundreds of magic crystals at the center of the formation. These magic crystals continuously provided energy to the formation.
As long as he destroyed these magic crystals, he could break the formation.
Lin Moyu gripped his axe and charged forward against the immense pressure.
Not only his constitution but also his strength and agility had increased to 1 million.
His speed far surpassed before.
Suddenly, a loud roar sounded, and a shadow shot out from the pool, rushing towards Lin Moyu with a gust of wind.
A monster?
Lin Moyu reacted quickly, sweeping his axe horizontally and hitting the shadow accurately, producing a metallic clang. The shadow trembled but wasn't knocked away, instead opening its bloody mouth to bite.
Lin Moyu dodged and counterattacked with several more strikes, but couldn't push it back.
The force from the axe was immense, indicating the opponent was very strong.
A soul flame flickered in his left hand.
A spark fell, and the shadow let out a miserable cry, trembling and falling.
It feels pain! It's not a puppet!
Lin Moyu understood and a red light flashed, the Aging Curse descending.
The shadow's speed slowed down.
Lin Moyu took the opportunity to break free and charged towards the formation at full speed.
The axe glowed red.
**Skill: Berserk Strike!**
