440 Chapter 440

Lin Fan faced the shield wielding skeletons head on as they approached him.

Without any hesitation at all, he swept out with the white sword in his hand. The moment the sword came in contact with the bone shield that the skeleton was wielding, it cut right through it like a hot knife through butter.

This bone shield that the skeleton had wasn't made from its own bones, but rather the bones of the enemies that it defeated, so it was much weaker than the skeleton itself. This shield was only an artifact in the peak Embryo Soul Realm, so when facing Lin Fan's sword, it couldn't last for a single second.

The sword continued forward after slashing through the bone shield and continued forward towards the skeleton behind the shield. Just like with the previous skeletons, this one was completely swept away by the force that was contained in the slash and was sent flying at the other skeletons that had been raised.

The slash had crushed right through this skeleton and turned it into pieces which hit the rest of the skeletons raised, but the two remaining skeletons with shields quickly came forward to block this.

They were able to stop the fragments from hitting the backline since the skeleton itself had taken most of the force behind Lin Fan's blow, making the pieces that flew out much weaker in comparison.

After blocking this, there were skeletons with bows and robed skeletons that came up behind these shield skeletons, raising their bows and balls of flames in their hands, aiming them at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan didn't waste any time in releasing another slash which created an energy wave that flew out at the attacks of these skeletons. This slash crushed right through the arrows and the balls of flames, but it was blocked by the shield skeletons that were in front.

The slash had been weakened enough that the shield skeletons were able to block them with their shields, but it did take them a bit of effort.

With all these skeletons working together, they were starting to be able to match Lin Fan's attacks which allowed them to start pushing him back. This was not good for Lin Fan since his techniques required him to consume a large amount of life energy, so he was fighting against the clock.

Lin Fan knew that if he used these long range tactics, it wouldn't work since his attacks would be whittled down, so he charged forward without any hesitation.

Lin Fan charged right up to the shield line, using the life energy around him to protect against the arrows and the balls of flames. They just bounced right off the layer of life energy around him like eggs against a brick wall, shattering to pieces without doing a single thing to him.

Lin Fan came up right in front of the wall of shields and slashed out in front of him, cutting the two last shield skeletons down and breaking through the defensive line.

However, at the last moment, there was a sudden spike made of bones that flew out through the army of skeletons at him.

Lin Fan twisted and raised his sword to block it, using all his life energy, but even then, he was still sent flying.

It was a good thing that Lin Fan released his life energy at full which allowed him to block it in the end, but that didn't stop him from being sent flying by that bone spike.

Lin Fan went all the way back to his starting position by the wall, but he wasn't slammed against it like he had been before.

Lin Fan looked at the source of the bone spike and saw Faust standing there with his hand raised, pointed at where Lin Fan had been standing.

This bone spike had been stronger than anything that Lin Fan had been hit with before, so he could tell that it was a special attack used by Faust, however, Lin Fan wasn't worried when he saw this. Rather, Lin Fan revealed a faint smile.

Normally the special part of being a necromancer was having minions that would do all the work for you, so you wouldn't have to do a thing. That was because unlike normal cultivators, necromancers had much higher spiritual senses, allowing them better control of their life energy. Unless there was a need, they wouldn't directly attack because it was better for them to whittle down their enemies with the difference in life energy until the enemy completely ran out of strength.

For a necromancer to directly attack, it meant that they were desperate or they had lost control of their emotions and wanted to attack directly.

For this scenario, it clearly wasn't the former, it was the latter.

Faust had lost himself in his emotions as he glared at Lin Fan, preparing to send out another bone spike.

However, if Lin Fan wasn't caught off guard by it, that meant that it wouldn't hit him since he could easily follow the trajectory of this straight projectile.

Lin Fan stabilized himself before dodging the arrows and balls of flame that were thrown at him, charging out once again at the skeletons.

Since all the shield skeletons had been taken care of, the ones that came forward to meet Lin Fan were the sword skeletons, but they didn't last that long either since each of them could only take a single slash from Lin Fan.

They were swept away with a single slash and there were more arrows and balls of flame that flew out at Lin Fan, but he easily dodged them since he had gotten used to the speed that they came out. Even the one bone spike that flew out at him was easily avoided by him since he could easily keep up with the speed that it came at him.

It didn't take Lin Fan more than a few more swings to take care of the rest of the skeletons, leaving a bunch of bones on the ground along with Faust standing with him in the room.

Faust was lost in his rage, but his mind was still functioning, so he could tell that it wouldn't be of any use if he continued summoning skeletons to help him.

,m But he also didn't want to let Lin Fan go since this was related to her, so there was only one thing that he could do.

Faust suddenly created a dagger made of bones that he held in his right hand which he just as suddenly stabbed into his left hand before chanting something.

Lin Fan couldn't understand what he was chanting, but he knew that it wouldn't be good for him to finish this chant, so Lin Fan charged right at Faust.

However, before he could take a single step, there were hands that grabbed at his legs.

Turning down, Lin Fan saw that there were skeletal hands that had come out of the ground that were dragging him downwards. Lin Fan tried to pull away, but these hands seemed like they had the strength of hell as they pulled him down.

Lin Fan didn't hesitate at all to slash down at these skeletal hands, destroying them and freeing himself, but it was already too late for him to stop Faust.

After Faust finished chanting his spell, he roared out, "Come forth, King of Death and strike down my enemies. Their souls will be your offering."

As soon as his voice fell, there was a dark vortex that appeared underneath his feet where there was a skeletal hand that reached out, but this time, the aura was completely different.

This aura was one that seemed very familiar to Lin Fan, but he couldn't tell exactly what it was.

However, when the skeletal figure appeared out of the hole, Lin Fan was taken aback because this was a very familiar figure.

This was a skeleton that was in a dark robe with a golden crown on his head with pure purple eyes that seemed like they could stare right into one's soul.

This was a figure that Lin Fan hadn't seen in a long time since the person that he knew that had this same figure had changed into another appearance a long time ago. Since then, that person hadn't ever turned back to this form.

But there was no mistaking it because this form had left a deep impression on Lin Fan, especially considering how they had met the first time.

When that skeletal figure appeared, it turned to look at Faust first before saying, "Little Faust, why did you summon me again? Don't you know that I'm very busy?"

Faust answered as he pointed at Lin Fan, "Teacher, please help me take care of him. I can't take care of him alone and it's very important for me that I have his body."

The skeletal figure turned to look at Lin Fan and didn't care about him at first, but then it was as if it had suddenly sensed something as its purple eyes flickered. It took a deeper look at Lin Fan before saying, "Yi? Why do I feel something familiar coming from you?"

Both Lin Fan and Faust were surprised when they heard this, but neither of them could react in time as the skeletal figure suddenly appeared in front of Lin Fan.

He was floating in front of Lin Fan as he looked him over, as if he was looking for something.

After a few seconds, he said, "Oh, it's the aura of the main body."
