Chapter 79 The Ghost Kingdom
Chapter 79 The Ghost Kingdom
After releasing the Lighting Dragon Roar through that hole, Kim finally flapped his wings and flew away. He had no reason to stay behind and more importantly, he had to leave at any cost.
Flying over the desert, he was quickly able to cross the desert. It seemed like it would only take him a few hours to reach the end of the desert.
But, this Purple Desert was really big. Even with flying, it took him over eight hours to reach the end.
It felt like this desert wouldn't end. Fortunately, before it was nighttime, he managed to reach the borders of the Ghost Kingdom.
Looking at the gloomy land that was covered with clouds, he felt extremely surprised. Even though he was the one who created the Ghost Kingdom like this, he didn't think it would be this gloomy.
It felt as if he had gone to the graveyard in the middle of the night with the horror sound and the gloomy smell.
And, he still hasn't forgotten that this wasn't nighttime. But, as he raised his head, Kim quickly understood the situation.
? The clouds above his head were blocking all the sunlight and thus, this place only felt gloomy.
He slowly landed on the ground and changed back to his human form. After that, he asked others to leave the Arc because he didn't want them to spend all of their time inside such a space.
After thinking for a moment, he decided to enter the Kingdom. After all, he had Chaos Lamp and even without it, he wasn't completely defenseless.
"Kim, this kingdom might be a better place to build our headquarters than the Monster Kingdom. With your Chaos Lamp, we don't need to be afraid of those souls."
Hinata spoke as they entered the kingdom's border. As for Asura, she didn't find this place gloomy at all.
But, her reaction made everyone else speechless. Not to mention, that Chaos Lamp might not work perfectly, nobody wanted to live in such a place.
Neyol looked at Hinata with a sympathetic gaze and said.
"Hinata, once we finally get enough power to challenge the kingdom, we will definitely change the environment of the Asura Kingdom."
"What do you mean? The Asura Kingdom doesn't need any changes." Hinata pouted with an unhappy expression.
"Neyol is just teasing you. But, still, we can't live here. Although Chaos Lamp is powerful, it can't absorb the soul stronger than itself. It was barely able to use its power to preserve my soul against that Dragon."
"Although that Dragon was powerful, I don't believe that he could compare to the likes of King Realm powerhouses in this kingdom. Instead, we could easily lose against that kind of powerhouse."
"So, let's just proceed as we planned. First, let's gather the Undead Army from this kingdom and leave for the Monster Kingdom. We will gather the rebels, conquer them and finally fight against the Monster Kingdom."
"Since my powers have reached the King Realm, I think we can start fighting against the Monster Kingdom and conquer it. But, we need to hold the information completely."
"Neyol, I hope you can work on it. I don't want to fight against the combined forces of the other kingdoms until we finish our plan with the Asura Kingdom."
Kim patted Hinata's head and spoke with a serious expression as he looked at everyone. Finally, his gaze stayed on Neyol as he gave her the instruction.
Neyol nodded as she replied.
"Don't worry! Although it would be hard, we can still keep the information within the kingdom."
Hearing this, Kim smiled and continued his journey toward the real graveyard. After two hours of walking, they finally started to see the graveyards.
These were placed completely randomly.
When they saw these graveyards, they stopped for a moment and Kim took out the Chaos Lamp. The lamp had a small green light burning out of it.
Seeing this, Kim shook his head.
"It seems like these graveyards have very low-level skeletons. Let's continue moving forward."
Hearing his words, everyone nodded their heads. Yeosho curiously stared at Kim and asked.
"Kim, how many undead can you summon at once? By the way, where did those previous skeletons disappear?"
"Well, I can't say the exact number. But, it depends upon my spiritual power. If I summon powerful undead, it would cost me a lot of spiritual power to keep it."
"But, if I summon a normal undead, I don't even need to use my spiritual power to keep it. You can understand it like how you use your Red Spiral Shuriken Blast."
"You can use it without the internal energy from Tojo, right? But, doing so, would decrease the power of the Red Spiral Shuriken Blast. My Call of Undead is similar."
"If I use my spiritual power actively, I can not only summon a powerful undead but also keep it for a long time. On the other hand, if I don't use my spiritual power actively, I can only summon normal undead."
"And, when I summon the powerful undead, it consumes a lot of spiritual energy because once the undead is summoned, it usually lives within my spiritual domain."
Hearing his words, Yeosho nodded her head with understanding but suddenly, she realized something and asked.
"Wait, isn't domain something that we can't use right now? How did you create the Spiritual Domain?"
Kim smiled and continued to explain.
"Because my Spiritual Domain isn't exactly a powerful domain of Martial King. This domain can also be categorized as an incomplete domain as it doesn't include the power of Aura or Law."
"Instead, I used my spiritual power, combined with the soul power to condense a domain that can keep the soul of those undead. Now, I don't need to rely on the bones of dead people."
"Of course, if I want to get the soul of those dead people from the Underworld, I still need the dead body. After that, I can keep their souls inside my Spiritual Domain."
"And, once I use this domain, I can summon their souls, create bones with my internal energy and recreate the undead. That's why those undead disappeared."
"In one of our battle, we accidentally break those undead bodies and lost all of those undead bodies. It was also the point where I get the motivation to create the Spiritual Domain and store their souls inside it."
Hearing his words, Yeosho finally understood. But now, Hinata had a question in her mind. She didn't hesitate to ask either.
"But conjuring bones with your internal energy isn't good for the battle, right? You should instead save your internal energy in the battle."
Kim smiled and said.
"You don't have to worry about that. I have a secondary space where I can store the extra internal energy which I normally use for Armament Technique. But now that we can simply use it with the spiritual energy from the surroundings, I have that spare internal energy."
"Ohhh! No wonder you didn't hesitate to learn Armament Technique at the beginning." Neyol finally understood the reason why he asked for such a technique at the very beginning.
She knew that Kim wasn't blessed with a powerful constitution that will give him an enormous amount of internal energy from the beginning. So, she had always been curious as to why he would ask for such a technique.
Although it increases his strength, it also consumes a lot of internal energy.
Kim was by no means a dumb person who would casually spend his internal energy. So, there must be a reason. She knew that but she didn't know the exact reason.
And, she never thought of asking him this.
"Anyway, let's just focus on the task in front of us. The flame inside the Chaos Lamp is growing bigger which means these skeletons are powerful. Jun, it's your turn to work."
Kim suddenly stopped and turned his head at Seo Jun.
She nodded her head and fell to one knee. She touched the ground with both of her palms and the next moment, her internal energy exploded out like a massive shockwave.
But, instead of going above the surface, it entered the ground and started moving around. It passed through several skeletons and after a few minutes, Seo Jun finally stopped.
She raised her hands and stood up.
"There are nearly fifteen skeletons with elements except for five basic elements and three more with Bloodline. I have left my internal energy in those skeletons."
"Once you summon them, you can easily see my internal energy and specifically summon those."
Hearing her words, Kim smiled.
"Thank you, Jun!"
"Humph!" Seo Jun just snorted and turned her face as she pointed her finger at her cheek. This was her way of saying that she deserved a reward.
And, Kim wasn't stingy with his reward. He moved closer to her and bent down as he kissed her cheek.
After that, Kim walked away while Seo Jun looked at the other girls with contempt as if she was saying something.
'See! This is the reward I deserve.'
