Chapter 829: Chapter 395: Dual Corpse Explosion, The First Disciple Cain

[Vesinu, the ’Third Disciple,’ kept retreating and took out the ’Abyss Lantern’ you gave him, throwing it far to you...]

[It sheathed its weapon to show its sincerity in stopping the war and ceasing hostilities...]

"Cain, there is no need for us to fight to the death between us,"

"Before the war of disciples, I even funded you with five million spirituality... Now I’m willing to voluntarily give up the position of the first disciple. How about we split the territory of the upper disciples evenly?"

Vesinu spoke earnestly, making concessions on his own, all while adopting a demeanor willing to negotiate in good faith.

By the tone of its voice, even if Lin Xun wanted all the territories of the upper disciples except for Vesinu, it wasn’t impossible; everything was negotiable.

Lin Xun sneered, fully aware of the calculations Vesinu was making.

The Son of Evil’s Shell, whether in the ’Boiling Blood and Flesh’ or the ’Blood-Flesh Angel’s Descent’ transformation state, was quite evident.

Vesinu, opting for a negotiating stance at this time, clearly lacked the certainty of victory and wanted to stall for time until the Son of Evil’s transformation duration ended.

Of course, there was also a slim chance that Vesinu genuinely chickened out, truly not wishing to compete with Lin Xun, the bottom-ranking disciple, who could be dubbed a ’monster.’

Lin Xun took out the ’Escape Bookmark’ and threw it to the ground: "Now that we’re not in combat status, you can use the ’Escape Bookmark.’ If you quit the disciple war now, we’ll be even."

As he threw down the ’Escape Bookmark,’ he also checked the bloody value of the ’Sword of the Bloody King.’

Having just slain the top demigod ’Solomon,’ he had directly recharged a significant amount of energy into the weapon. Although it hadn’t reached the level required to unleash ’Bloody Judgment,’ releasing a ’Fallen Shackles’ was definitely not a problem.

"Fine! I’ll withdraw this very moment!"

Vesinu said he would drop out, but he was limping slowly toward the ’Escape Bookmark.’

Although he had recovered a small portion of his injuries under ’Bounty of Grace,’ shielding Cain from ’Solomon’ had also cost him a considerable amount of health.

By now, Vesinu had at most only one-quarter of his life remaining. His limping, gravely wounded appearance had some theatrics to it, but could barely be considered a true-to-life portrayal.

Cain’s transformation state was becoming unstable and looked set to end soon. If he hesitated even slightly, if Vesinu could drag it out past the transformation time...

[In this judgment!]

[Vesinu, the ’Third Disciple,’ is an evil heretic who has betrayed the True God!]

[Without hesitation, you raise the ’Sword of the Bloody King,’ pointing the blade towards the enemy and declaring the oath of judgment!]

[You have successfully inflicted the debuff ’Intense Weakness’ on the enemy!]

[Vesinu’s limbs sunk, his body stiffened as if bearing a heavy mountain on his back.]

"Cain... it’s you who forced me!"

Seeing that Cain had seen through him, Vesinu stopped pretending.

He could sense that although no one was attacking Cain, the latter’s health was continuously declining, now even more depleted than his own.

This was clearly the price for activating the transformation state.

Even with the weakening effect of ’Intense Weakness’ burdening him, he was confident he could trade blow for blow... and kill Cain!

Cain would either have to end the transformation early or be hacked to death by him as his health ran out!

[Vesinu not only didn’t back down but instead took out a massive battleaxe with his remaining arm and charged furiously towards you...]

Lin Xun narrowed his eyes and without any hesitation, clicked the extra skill from his new Shell — ’Ceremony of the Dead’!

[’Ceremony of the Dead’ (Legend+ Level Skill): Death is not liberation, not the end, but the beginning of all suffering!]

[By using this skill, you can transform the target into a more powerful high-level undead within three minutes after their death!]

[Legend-level enemies can be transformed into ’Dark Abyss Knights,’ Legend+ level enemies can be transformed into ’Dark Abyss Watchers,’ and Mythical Level and above enemies can be transformed into ’Dark Abyss Lords’! (The rank of ’Dark Abyss Lords’ cannot exceed Mythical Level.)]

[The high-level undead transformed by this skill are temporary special summoned creatures, existing for up to 30 minutes. For each additional high-level undead you possess, your ’Catastrophe Witch’ Shell gets a 5% undead magic amplification, with a cap of 0/10 high-level undead.]]

[...]

[A gaunt figure in a black robe emerged behind you, holding up a scepter, chanting the complex and lengthy chant of the dead...]

[The body of ’Solomon,’ who had died, had already dissipated into nothingness, leaving only a crimson bloodstain in its place...]

[But as the chant proceeded, a pitch-black hand bone abruptly reached out from the bloodstain, pulling out a terrifying figure from the blood!]

[It was a tall figure composed of dark bones, crowned with a crown of the dead, wielding a heavy bone war hammer, and mounted on a fearsome terrestrial Bone Dragon!]

[As you fend off Vesinu’s ferocious assault with your sword, the ’Dark Abyss Lord’ let out a silent roar, bidding its terrestrial Bone Dragon to charge at Vesinu!]

Vesinu’s eyes widened in shock: "Is this Amos’s Ceremony of the Dead?!"

The skill ’Door of the Abyss’ was too insignificant, hardly used by Amos in actual combat, so much so that it was nearly forgotten by Amos, had it not been for its use in recharging Lin Xun’s weapon.

Vesinu did not recognize the ’Door of the Abyss,’ but he was profoundly familiar with Amos’s signature skill ’Ceremony of the Dead.’

"How could Cain possibly use Amos’s skill?!"

"It must be his Soul Talent!"

Vesinu was horrified beyond belief, utterly unable to comprehend how anyone could possess such a monstrously overpowered soul talent.
