Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone

Chapter 821 - 522: Coveting the Abyss, [Bloodstorm] Catherine!

But Ye Haitang and the others were not surprised, as if they had anticipated this.

Ye Haitang said, "It’s nothing, this is most likely the Legendary Demon Lord whom the Undead Demon Champion has submitted to, sensing your intrusion into this Abyss Territory and the Demon Legion.

But don’t worry, the native Blue Star has barriers that block intrusion.

In the absence of a ’Summoning Demon,’ even a Legendary Demon Lord cannot break through the barrier and descent power.

All it can do now is transmit words, and cannot harm you."

Fang Zhou nodded in agreement, the reality was just as such, that powerful demon was merely bluffing.

Yet after comforting, Ye Haitang further emphasized: "Based on the special rules of Abyssal Demon nobility. When you hold this Demon Champion Soul Body, you establish a special connection with its territory and legion.

You can sense its power, and even use its power.

Meanwhile, other Upper Demon Lords can sense your presence.

This is both a threat and possibly an opportunity for them.

They wouldn’t want their main body and territory position exposed, leading to extermination by our human elites.

And until you completely control this Demon Champion’s power incarnation, its Upper Demon Lords might use this power incarnation to influence you.

The worst case would be harnessing you to launch another scheme, creating disaster...."

Ye Haitang explained clearly, and upon hearing this, Fang Zhou assured, "Such dangerous things, I won’t privately retain it.

I will leave this Demon Champion Soul Body in the Undead Mage research task group.

There are several instructors here, along with Principal Su overseeing things, so certainly no danger."

Ye Haitang looked at Fang Zhou, nodded, and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "This is indeed the best strategy, certainly."

Currently, Fang Zhou is a highly acclaimed young hero, catching the eyes of many high-ranking officials in the Longxia Military.

If he considered himself superior and wanted to hold this Demon Champion Soul Body alone, based on the Human Alliance’s orderly rules, without apparent risk, no one would deprive Fang Zhou of this right.

Now Fang Zhou himself, recognizing the strategic timing, voluntarily arranges this Demon Champion Soul Body he captured and sealed within the Undead Mage research task group, making this undoubtedly the perfect solution.

Ye Haitang seeing Fang Zhou restore his normal demeanor, didn’t linger.

Glancing at Fang Zhou’s Demon Champion Soul Body, she said, "I’ll first organize information regarding Glory Champion Soul Bodies, as well as some measures for handling them.

I’ll pass these references to Fang Zhou shortly, see you in a bit."

"See you in a bit." Instructor Su Xinyan nodded.

After Ye Haitang temporarily leaves, Su Xinyan clapped hands, "Regarding the Demon Champion Soul Body, naturally it’s Instructor Ye Haitang, the expert, who will be concerned.

Master Sandro is also interested in this soul body, perhaps being able to break through the Glory Champion.

All these will require substantial time to study, so we’ll put this aside for now.

Fang Zhou, let’s discuss what reward you want to exchange for with the Federation military for this great achievement you have achieved this time?"

Upon hearing this, Fang Zhou immediately became energized.

The level of the Demon Champion Soul Body is too high, to Fang Zhou it still appears somewhat enigmatic.

But when mentioning battlefield achievement rewards, Fang Zhou welcomes it eagerly.

"Instructor, here’s what I’m thinking."

.......

In the subsequent time, Fang Zhou again entered a period of rapid advancement in prowess.

As for the spiritual avatar, it needs no elaboration, after ascending to Silver Lower Rank, there are countless paths to enhance strength.

Concerning the main body of the Undead Mage, whether it be the surge in Spirit Attributes prompting a growth in power, or the analysis of the Demon Champion Soul Body expanding undead knowledge, all is sufficient for Fang Zhou to ascend to a new level of strength.

Upon welcoming Ye Haitang, the Golden Lower Rank Totem Sealing Master into the Undead Mage research task group, the research strength became even more robust.

Following numerous attempts, Ye Haitang successfully divided the Demon Champion Soul Body Fang Zhou sealed into two.

One part contains the Abyssal Will, a dangerous existence prone to corrupting.

This part also inherently holds the nature of a Glory Champion, naturally preserved and studied by the Undead Mage research task group.

According to the ecstatic Master Sandro, combining the advancement path of the Naraku Civilization Engraved Ice Witch brought back by Fang Zhou previously, along with the strength essence of this Undead Demon Champion, he’s found the way forward.

Given more time, he’s more than likely to successfully breakthrough the golden bottleneck, condensing Undead Will, and advancing to Glory Champion.

Excluding the most dangerou part, what remains for Fang Zhou is naturally a Soul Body shell preserving immense power.

Fang Zhou’s avatar has now advanced to Spiritual Remains Lord, mastering Death Spirit Body skills, hence the understanding of the Soul Series Skill Tree is transcendentally profound.

Within the Artificial Undead series, Fang Zhou is already capable of mass-producing Ghosts.

However, the soul material required for Ghost production is exceedingly rare, leading to Fang Zhou’s absence of a large number of artificial Ghosts.

Now with ample power left from this Demon Champion Soul Body, Fang Zhou can try crafting an elite artificial Ghost similar to the Skeleton Mage Ryze.

.......

In the laboratory, Fang Zhou stared at the evil spirit body confined within the Soul-Binding Gem.

Master Sandro stood by, holding a soul crystal inlaid with Naraku runes.

While Instructor Su Xinyan weaved energy guides using Moon Shadow Spider Silk.

"The energy fluctuations of this soul body are extremely unstable," Sandro frowned and said, "Direct transformation could trigger backlash."

"Use Soul Shock to weaken its resistance consciousness first." Su Xinyan suggested, her fingertips already gathering a cluster of dark blue Soul Energy.

Fang Zhou nodded, waving his [Soul Shattering Bone Staff] lightly, a wave of invisible Soul Shock penetrated the cage, striking the core of the evil spirit body.

The soul body emitted a sharp shriek, attempting to break free, yet remained firmly fixed by the Moon Shadow Spider Silk.

"Begin Soul Stripping." Fang Zhou murmured, the crystal skull at the staff’s tip burst into blinding light.

The process of Soul Stripping was akin to peeling layers of darkness, and the frenzied consciousness of the evil spirit body was gradually stripped, leaving only the purest Soul Energy.

Su Xinyan’s Moon Shadow Spider Silk resembled a precise scalpel, excising negative emotions and demon markings from the soul body.

Sandro then embedded the soul crystal into the core of the soul body, stabilizing its energy structure with Naraku runes.

"Now, inject the combat equation for artificial Ghosts."

Fang Zhou took a deep breath, slowly infusing undead mana into the evil spirit soul body.

The color of the soul body gradually shifted from pitch-black to crimson red, its surface presented with complex soul patterns.

As the soul body’s remolding was nearing completion, Fang Zhou activated the Soul Link skill.

His mana transformed into numerous delicate chains, entwining each energy node of the soul body.

This was the most critical step, a slight error could lead to the soul body’s loss of control.

"Steady!"

Sandro shouted in a low voice, the soul crystal in his hand emitted strong energy fluctuations, aiding Fang Zhou in suppressing the soul body’s resistance.

Su Xinyan’s Moon Shadow Spider Silk meanwhile wove into a vast energy net, firmly holding the soul body.

With the completion of the final imprint of chains, the soul body’s resistance ceased.

The crimson glow gradually receded, morphing into an elegant yet icy female ghost form.

"From today onward, your name is Catherine." Fang Zhou softly said.

Catherine slowly opened her eyes, her blood-red pupils sparkled with murderous intent.

She slightly bowed, her voice akin to a cold wind sweeping across the icy surface: "At your service, my master."

Through his anchored Soul Link with Catherine, Fang Zhou thoroughly grasped her abilities.

Undeniably, Catherine possessed formidable combat abilities.

As an elite ghost, she naturally mastered the specialty Spirit Body Transformation.

This allowed her free transitions between corporeal and ethereal states, rendering her immune to most physical attacks.

Moreover, Catherine had an exceptionally short Skill Cooldown Time for this ability, enabling nearly seamless transitions.
