The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak

Chapter 741 Battling The Undead

Souta's face distorted with rage. His killing intent exploded as he glared at the skeleton in the mid-air.

He launched himself into the air like a missile and his energy soared through the roof. Instantly, he bashed the skull of the skeleton and the impact caused a ripple that spread out.

Boom!!

The skeleton didn't even know what happened as its body crashed on the ground like a meteor. It tried to stand up but it felt a heavy gravity tighten on its body.

Souta instantly covered the distance between him and the skeleton. He already activated his Second Mode as his aura rose sharply.

"DIE!!"

Flesh covered his right arm and it even coated the vajra sword in his hand, pouring a huge amount of strength into this attack.

[Crimson Moon]!!

A red light swallowed the skeleton. It struggled for a few seconds before it felt its strength leaving its body.

[Serpent Dominance]!!

With a debuff of minus seventy percent of its stats, the skeleton's body started to form cracks. It struggled with all of its might but everything it did was in vain. Its skull disintegrated followed by its arms and legs.

"Thank you..." A voice sounded beside Souta's ears as it slowly vanished.

In just a few seconds, nothing was left out of its boney body.

With a minus seventy percent of its defense, Souta could literally just demolish any One Shackle Realm creature with a single strike.

Just like that, a powerful undead that reached the level of One Shackle Realm had perished at Souta's hand.

His bloodshot eyes glared at the air.

"You think you're safe!!"

Souta raised his hand and devoured the soul. The soul acted in fear but it couldn't escape the power of a universal artifact.

Puff!

It couldn't even offer a little bit of resistance as the earring sucked it.

"Fuck!"

Souta cursed as he bit his tongue to calm himself. He tried to calm himself once again but he never felt peaceful like before. The feeling from before was strange and it even let him reach level 65. With his current level, the amount of experience points that he needed to level up was astronomical.

He would remember that feeling.

For now, he would finish this mission. There were still undead lurking in this place and it would be bad if they launched another sneak attack.

His [Crimson Perception] was useless to pure skeleton undead. Only those with a little bit of blood were passable since he could even sense a drop of blood several kilometers away from him.

"The battle should have alerted the undead inside the castle."

Souta muttered as he turned his attention to the old castle in the middle of a swamp.

He walked on the surface of the water while observing every movement in his surrounding. At this moment, he didn't even bother hiding his energy. It was useless since the undead already detected his energy from the battle before.

They were probably observing him.

Oh?

Souta raised his head and a wide grin formed on his face.

"In the end, they are still undead... Their intelligence is lower comparable to non-evolve monsters."

Their state of being was different and the connection placed to their vessels by a necromancer was the only reason why they could stay in mortal world. If not, the soul realm would swallow them even if they like it or not.

Several undead were suspended in the air. Souta didn't even care about the rest as his attention was on the two undead with overflowing energy.

The first one was a three-meter-tall giant piece of rotting flesh and the other one was a skeleton wearing a long purple robe. Both of them were exuding an aura at the limit of Two Shackles Realm. It was just their natural state, they didn't even forcefully release their energy nor used their skills to boost their strength.

As for the other undead, they were all fodder at One Shackle Realm. They couldn't enter Souta's eyes with his current strength.

? "Ehe~ Let's start it..."

Souta laughed as he used [Serpent Dominance] immediately to suppress the lower level undead. Then, a black mist seeped out of his pores as he activated his Second Mode.

The giant undead charged at him with insane speed. It raised its huge hand and heavily swung it down.

Boom!!

It thought that it hit Souta but he felt a hard block in front of it. When the smoke disappeared, a human-size black flower that looked like a combination of rose and lotus blocked its fist.

[Fourth Form: Bridal Lotus Benevolent Rose]!

Souta raised his hand and dark clouds formed in the air just below the barrier. Thunder roared as lightning would flash every second.

[First Form: Mahayana Tribulation]!

Black lightning descended instantly. The bolt of lightning flashed across the sky as it struck those undead in the mid-air.

A loud bang reverberated as the undead crashed on the ground causing the water to splash everywhere.

BANG!!

The next bolt of lightning made the water on the swamp boil.

Seven shadows rose beneath Souta's feet. All of them charged forward and they had the same goal, and that was to exterminate the One Shackle Realm undead. With the debuff from his [Serpent Dominance], his seven doppelgangers could handle those undead.

Souta made a grabbing motion in the air. The gravity field around those low-level undead tightened greatly. He wanted to finish them but the giant undead finally shattered the Fourth Form of his artifact.

Bam!!

"The strength of this giant isn't bad." He quickly jumped away as he brandished the vajra sword.

This giant shattered his Fourth Form in just a few seconds explained that it has unbelievable attack power. Souta was confident that a Two Shackle Realm expert would at least take thirty seconds to break his Fourth Form unless they used Element Drive.

The Two Shackles Realm skeleton suddenly shot out scorching fireballs, brightening the surrounding area.

Bang! Bang!

Crimson energy blades burst out in retaliation. Souta countered it with his energy attacks. Then, he twisted his body and a fist struck at his previous position.

"That's close."

Souta increased the energy circulation in his body and it gives him additional power. Quickly stepping forward, his sword was like a venomous snake pouncing at the giant undead.

It was about to hit the giant when a barrier materialized blocking Souta's strong. It only lasted for a second before it collapsed but it gave the giant enough time to launch another attack.

"They have coordination... Probably due to the ancestor controlling them before. Their bodies memorized it." Souta went into a defensive stance.

A loud blast reverberated as the fist collided with his sword, pushing him several dozen of meters in the air.

Bang!! Bang!!

Souta exchanged blows with the giant undead and the skeleton. These two undead were really not an ordinary Two Shackles Realm.

They could keep up with him who already used the Second Mode. This mode boost was certainly not low, it contained the boosts of several combat arts and spells.

Souta who was on the offensive suddenly changed his stance. He hurriedly used [Fourth Form: Bridal Lotus Benevolent Rose]. After that, a huge fist covered in overwhelming dead mana struck the shield.

The collision resulted in the swamp being swept out. All the water and soil shot up into the air as the black lightning struck down once again.

"Fifth Form-" Souta stepped forward as the vajra sword emitted a cold light. Black lightning crackled and his energy surged out.

The giant undead attacked once again but Souta suddenly vanished from his position. His destructive fist could only hit the air.

Swoosh!!

The skeleton sensed something. It turned around and launched several scorching fireballs at the ground which was covered in black tentacles.

At the next moment, Souta appeared and saw dozens of fireballs screeching toward him.

'This skeleton already guess the fundamentals of [Shadow Ball] spell...?'

Souta narrowed his eyes. He changed his stance and used different skills.

[Second Form: Thousand Oak Absorption]!!

Black lightning spread out like a net. It swallowed the fireballs like nothing.

'This is the limit that I can absorb...' Souta's face contorted as he spun around in the mid-air and swung his sword at the skeleton.

[Second Form: Reverse Moon Oak]!!

The energy that he absorbed from the fireballs gushed out. It launched a torrent of black lightning that brightened the surrounding area.

The skeleton raised both of its hands. Several layers of barrier appeared and it blocked the chains of violent lightning. It raised its head and saw Souta soar through the sky brandishing a sword that was covered in lightning.

"Fall..." Souta said before he thrust the sword. The Second Mode was still active so his strength far surpassed his normal strength and his enemies suffered a debuff from the black mist he was emitting. Also, the gravity field was constantly trying to suppress these two.

[Sixth Form: Piercing Thunder Strike]!

The black lightning flashed brilliantly as it pierced through the layers of barriers easily. It then heavily struck the skeleton.
