224: Being hunted

Lin Ye, this reckless young man, was still frantically hunting Undead. He discovered a very strange group among the Undead.

This group of Undead was very responsible; every time he appeared, they would rush over to intercept him and protect the Undead Kingdom.

Sure enough, as soon as he arrived in a new area, a team of Undead had already rushed over, only to be slaughtered by him.

They were usually very strong, at least Galaxy Level, and many were Star Domain Level. They could be called elite monsters and would not flee.

These were the monsters Lin Ye loved to kill the most; they offered high kill efficiency and automatically delivered themselves to him.

However, this made him very curious. This was very un-Undead-like. How could Undead be so diligent and responsible?

Even those loyal Undead Knights were only relatively loyal. They obeyed their master's arrangements but would not charge for other Undead.

"Run quickly during the weakened period." The Dragon God Claw's weakened period still needed to be taken seriously. He had just encountered a Stellar River Level mini-boss and had used his full strength.

This mini-boss was also an Undead Knight, and surprisingly, it also dropped a soul seed.

Lin Ye had a feeling that soul seed, this treasure, seemed to be of great benefit to the Undead as well; long-term wear could enhance their strength.

Therefore, basically, any Undead with some standing and strength would wear a soul seed.

This also made Lin Ye's goals much clearer; just hunt down the strong ones, they were all treasures.

Suddenly, Lin Ye's soul flared, and Intuition told him that danger was imminent.

In the future vision, a fireball would hit him.

Lin Ye flapped his Dragon Transformation wings desperately, using his movement technique to the extreme, trying to evade the attack.

Suddenly, he turned sharply, and a dark, evil ray grazed past him.

"Little fellow, you're quite sharp." Adelath, who was lurking in the shadows, broke his stealth riding a bone dragon.

A Stellar River Level advanced Lich combined with a Stellar River Level initial bone dragon.

Lin Ye's face turned pale. It was over, it was over. The enemy was too strong.

"Who are you? Why are you chasing me?" To buy time, Lin Ye spoke while fleeing, attempting to delay with words.

"Who am I? Why am I chasing you? Isn't it obvious?" The Lich King unleashed another fireball, forcing Lin Ye into a desperate dance of dodging up and down.

However, he did not give up. Although this was a clone, recreating a clone was very expensive.

With the help of Intuition, agile movement techniques, and his domain, Lin Ye narrowly dodged the Lich's attacks again and again.

"Hmph, you're quite good at dodging. Take this!" The Lich began to chant magic. Not being able to hit him was quite damaging to the Lich's pride; he was the Lich King after all.

Myriad ethereal blue fireballs appeared, launching a saturation strike at Lin Ye.

Lin Ye could only escape by shuttling through a Wormhole.

But inside the Wormhole, he was surprised to find that the Lich had also entered the dimensional space.

"This damn thing knows too much!" Lin Ye's face turned ashen.

With the Lich's spell, Lin Ye was squeezed out of space.

The Wormhole's level was still too low; it was difficult to break through many seals.

"Rain of Fire!" The saturation attack was unleashed again by the Lich.

Lin Ye desperately used the last of his incomplete Dragon God Claw, barely protecting himself, but he was still burned all over.

Clone.

Three Lin Yes appeared. The Lich looked at the scene before him in surprise. "I didn't expect you to have such a powerful skill." Lin Ye's clones, even he couldn't quite see through them.

But it didn't matter. The saturation strike of the Rain of Fire didn't require distinguishing the true body.

Lin Ye's clones were blasted apart, and he himself was on his last breath.

Way out, way out, where is the way out? Destiny, tell me.

Lin Ye roared internally, but he was in combat mode. He had used Fusion Law and could not activate Destiny Law. He could only rely on Vision of Destiny, unaided by Destiny Law, to find a chance at survival.

The Lich King was surprised once again. It was hard to imagine an ant surviving so long under his attack, and possessing such terrifying cross-level ability.

"Could he be a genius from the outside world? If I kill him, will it affect the King's plan?" The Lich hesitated slightly. As a strategist, he naturally considered many things.

If it were a normal Undead Knight, he would have probably charged with his greatsword long ago.

Taking advantage of this brief opportunity, Lin Ye found a way out and plunged into the ethereal blue river.

"This is good. I don't need to act now." The Lich King was overjoyed.

The River Styx, though not like the one in myths, was still an unoffendable taboo in the Underworld. Entering it, let alone living beings, even Undead would be completely corroded.

However, considering Lin Ye's strength, he decided to guard the body for a period.

But to his surprise, Lin Ye had been in for a long time and had not reappeared.

Even if he was corroded, wouldn't his skeleton be revealed?

The Lich King felt that things were not simple. He summoned several bone birds to act as his eyes, exploring upstream and downstream, but the result was beyond his expectation; there was no news whatsoever.

.......

After Lin Ye plunged into the river, a terrifying corrosive force began to corrode his flesh.

He endured the pain and moved towards the direction guided by Destiny.

Now that he was out of combat and no longer needed to use Fusion Law, he naturally activated Destiny Law.

Under the effect of Destiny Law, the guiding force became several times clearer.

Lin Ye desperately dived deeper.

The further down he went, the stronger the corrosive force became.

First, the dragon scales, the energy-transformed dragon scales were the first to be corrode, then the skin, subcutaneous fat, fascia, and muscles.

Gradually, Lin Ye turned into a bloody mess.

The intense pain was no longer resistible. Lin Ye could only rely on his last bit of willpower to propel his body forward.

As his muscles slowly corroded, his movements became slower and slower. If his muscles were completely corroded, then Death awaited him.

Closer, closer, only a little distance left.

Lin Ye's muscles supported him to swim the last stretch.

He felt as if he had crashed into a layer of soft jelly, then was sucked inside.

This was a dark region, but Lin Ye no longer had the energy to observe. Relying on his last bit of willpower, after drinking the potions to replenish energy and restore his body, he fell unconscious.

Lin Ye's damaged body began to recover under the effect of the potions and his dream skill.

......

"My clone encountered a fortuitous event?" Lin Ye's main body was somewhat surprised.

Being hunted, entering an unknown space, and turning misfortune into a blessing—this was definitely a protagonist's fate.

He, Lin Ye, had never been this lucky since his debut.

"Destiny Law is truly powerful!" Lin Ye's heart burned with excitement.

However, with his clone in crisis, it was not the time to study Destiny Law.

He decided to check the information first, lest his clone miss this opportunity due to a lack of information.

With access to the virtual world, searching was very convenient. Lin Ye found the Underworld region and discovered that the records there were very sparse.

He carefully read through each piece of information but found nothing.

This river was too strange; even the native Undead had limited knowledge of it, let alone outsiders like them.

"Clone, you'll have to rely on yourself." Lin Ye exited the virtual world, only able to pray for his clone.

He used Destiny Law to cast a divination for his clone; the path ahead was hazy and unclear.
