Chapter 368: Countdown to Upgrading to Level 10 Lord's Mansion!_2
Without a word, he conjured a weapon in his hand and struck down at the shield of the Lord's Mansion.
This was not enough; the eight Alien Lords stationed in the distance also unleashed their methods, with spell attacks bombarding from each one.
Eighteen Lords acting together, although their big moves were all in cooldown, could still inflict over 300k damage per second.
Countdown one second...
Two-thirds of the Lord's Mansion shield value had already been depleted, leaving 2.6 million+ HP remaining, plummeting by over 300k every second.
However, standing at the gate of the Lord's Mansion, Zi Liyuan's mouth already revealed a sinister smile, the kind that not even an AK could suppress.
"Why did you guys soften up so quickly?"
His airy words, falling into the ears of the Alien Lords, were more humiliating than mere taunting.
Suddenly, it was as if the Alien Lords were injected with an adrenaline shot, bombarding wildly with various skills and spells.
"A bunch of trash, do you even know how to write the word 'death'?"
The eerie smile caused the Alien Lords to hesitate slightly, and a feeling of unease instantly rose in their hearts.
They also sensed something odd about the situation.
This guy was decisive in killing; the information described him as a ruthless butcher, not a coward.
But from the beginning of their attack on the territory, he had just hidden inside the Lord's Mansion shield, becoming a shrinking turtle and never once coming out to confront them in a fight to the death.
Would someone known as the Human Butcher wait obediently for death without resisting?
Impossible!
If that were so, the opponent must have some sort of backup plan, one capable of dealing with all eighteen of them!
Thinking this, each of the Alien Lords broke out in a cold sweat, hastening their actions even further.
If they could just break the Lord's Mansion shield and then destroy the Level 9 Lord's Mansion, their mission would be complete!
The immense benefits they would receive would allow them to smoothly expand in the Sea of Realms, and becoming a great Lord would be just a matter of time!
As for whether Zi Liyuan lived or died, that was for the real monsters to worry about!
The mindset of the eighteen shifted instantaneously from taking down Zi Liyuan to focusing on destroying the Lord's Mansion.
No one wanted to bear the brunt of a Human Butcher's outburst and his trump card move!
So, they all distanced themselves from the door of the Lord's Mansion, staying further from Zi Liyuan, also making it easier to dodge and evade when he made his move.
Zi Liyuan watched as the Alien Lords, who stood near him like avoiding a plague, now grew stronger with a more intense schadenfreude smile.
At this point, what use was there to hide?
Did they really think he would be kind enough to let his enemies go?
Countdown zero seconds...
A golden beam, descending from the sky like a pillar holding up the heavens, bathed the surroundings in a golden color!
[Ding, upgrade complete, congratulations to Zi Liyuan for becoming a Level 10 Lord, territory has greatly expanded!]
"What?!"
Σ(っ°Д°;)っ???
"Lord's Mansion upgrade golden light???!!!"
(╯°Д°)╯︵┻━┻!!!
"How is that possible?!"
(; ̄д ̄)??!!
...
Eighteen Alien Lords, in the blink of an eye, turned pale, each one frozen in place, watching as the shield that just had under 2 million HP jump to its limit and even breakthrough to over 10 million HP.
Shock to horror, it happened in a flash.
The eighteen Alien Lords, without a word, immediately attempted to flee.
Unfortunately, how could Zi Liyuan let them get away so easily?
Destroying most of the buildings in his territory, wiping out the summoned Skeleton Subjects, the hard-earned White Jade Skeleton offered as sacrifice, the Skeleton Bosses he'd nurtured with vast amounts of experience points, and the elite Undead of Second and Third Order he'd managed to bring from the Secret Realm – were they thinking of just walking away?
As if such good luck existed!
A Fourth Order Space Seal Scroll, torn by Lord Zi at some unknown time, emitted a huge distortion of space, instantly cloaking a ten-kilometer radius, imprisoning the whole area. Experience tales at My Virtual Library Empire
"Thinking of running now? Too late! Weren't you attacking with great delight just now, taking such pleasure in it? Weren't you trying to kill me, Lord Zi? Come, come, come, Lord Zi is very curious to see how exactly you plan to take him down."
Three massive bone shields surrounded Zi Liyuan on all sides.
A purple-black mage robe exuding an oppressive aura drifted gently in the wind.
A pitch-black staff emanated a surging aura of death.
A terrifying epic pressure instantly enveloped the entire territory.
Atop Zi Liyuan's head, a massive Gate of Space and Time slowly tore open the fabric of the space, and through it, the horrific roars of dragons echoed.
Sinister laughter, the wails of spectres, the grinding noise of bones, all continuously emanated from the Gate of Space and Time, weighing heavily on the hearts of those Alien Lords, striking terror into them until their faces were ashen.
Doomed!
This beast isn't playing by the rules!
In just a short span of five days, he had collected all the materials needed to directly upgrade to a Level 10 Lord's Mansion.
Damn it, isn't this entrapment?
(╥╯^╰╥)...
Is there still time to kneel and call him Grandfather Zi now?
As long as one can keep this dog's life, anything will do!
Kulong, with its tattered bony wings, was the first to cross through the Gate of Space and Time, then with an elegant twist, it traced an arc in the sky, emitting a roar befitting the King of Spectral Dragons before landing in front of Zi Liyuan.
The enormous and fierce dragon head touched the ground in deference, its bony wings forming a ramp-like slope, making it easy for Lord Zi to mount.
"Master, Spectral Dragon King Kulong reporting for duty. Where you point, is where the Spectral Dragon army will advance!"
The savage and epic dragon might engulfed the entire scene, exempting only Zi Liyuan.
"Very well, let the Spectral Dragon army clear the field! I want no Blue Star Lords within a thousand kilometers!"
Zi Liyuan didn't even glance at the eighteen Alien Lords preparing to flee and directly issued a deadly order to Kulong.
"Roar! To battle for the master!"
Kulong, noticing that Zi Liyuan had no intention of mounting it, saw the fire of its soul dim slightly within its eye sockets and quickly stood up, roaring out a bellow.
The Dragon King's roar, a response from the dragon cohort.
One after another, the roars of dragons traveled through the Gate of Space and Time. One by one, the Spectral Dragon Lord Bosses, flapping their bony wings like streaks of white lightning, flew out, then dispersed in all directions.
The Spectral Dragon Boss army marched, and all who stood in its way, died!
"You, all deserve to die!"
Zi Liyuan's gaze finally shifted from Kulong and locked onto the Alien Lords who had already run over a hundred meters away.
In an instant, numerous spells of curse were effortlessly cast.
With a casual air, he affixed four or five curses onto each Alien Lord.
Once the power restrictions were lifted and he donned his equipment, Lord Zi was nothing short of a bug-like cheater!
The levels of his skills, originally at Level 20, soared instantly to Level 25, with a terrifying increase in power that could only be described as horrific.
Eighteen Spears of Death formed in an instant, firmly locking onto the eighteen Alien Lords, then vanished in the blink of an eye.
With the constraints of the Sea Boundary Seal lifted, the damage dealt by these Spears of Death reverted to the Blue Star era, with one strike capable of inflicting damage upwards of a hundred million.
How could these Alien Lords, whose strength was barely a tenth of their full, constrained by the Sea Boundary Seal, endure such terror?
In nearly a second, punch-sized holes appeared in the chests and backs of the Alien Lords.
The colossal Power of Death, in an instant, invaded their bodies, continually ravaging their lifeforce from within.
It wasn't that these Alien Lords didn't resist; in fact, they used every lifesaving trick in the book, but still couldn't withstand the terrifying damage of a single Spear of Death!
Instantaneous kills!
A simple spell had instantaneously dispatched all the Alien Lords.
"The feeling of regaining power is truly wonderful."
With a light and breezy remark, Zi Liyuan felt immensely gratified.
"Kulong, gather these corpses for me, I will be needing them."
"Yes, my great master!"
