Chapter 645: Peak Dead Bone! (4K)
A quarter of an hour earlier.
Dragon Sleep Valley had pinpointed Dead Bone's location and set up a trap like a net cast from heaven to earth.
A tidal wave of forces led by dozens of Grand Dukes, including two Peak Dukes, was encircling the Army of the Country of Corpse.
And a Saint Realm Existence, the Burning Sky Monarch, descended directly, with golden fire burning in his Dragon's Eyes, aimed directly at the black figure in the chasm.
"Found you!"
"The one who stirred up the Undead tide!"
"As I thought, not yet ascended to the Saint Realm."
Thoughts flickered through the Burning Sky Monarch's mind with lightning speed.
As a leading figure in Dragon Sleep Valley, he had participated in the encirclement battle against the Undead Empire in the past and was naturally very aware of the situation of the Undead Empire.
Even clearer than many of the Saint Realm powers in human civilization!
The Undead Empire had long since disintegrated, leaving only remnants clinging on to existence.
Among these remnants, the only one worthy of attention was the Law Realm Duke 'Silent Sovereign'!
This Duke naturally possessed a Great Force that could penetrate heaven and earth, a power even the Burning Sky Monarch admitted to being inferiors to; however, he was not afraid.
The Silent Sovereign could almost be considered the only remaining piece of the Undead Empire, and those keeping a close eye on this Duke were far more than just Dragon Sleep Valley.
Of course,
Now it seems, there might be another remnant of the Undead Empire, which is the Black Armored Undead in front of him.
The Black Armored Undead and Silent Sovereign, perhaps are the only two remaining forces after the disintegration of the Undead Empire.
The reason he thought 'only two,' rather than both emerging from the same remnant, is because... if these two came from the same power, then there's no reason why the Silent Sovereign would allow the Black Armored Undead, a young monarch with endless potential and mastery over the legitimate heritage of the Undead Empire, to enter the Red Mist Land.
Perhaps, most likely, they do not even recognize each other!
The Country of Corpse was a newly emerged secret force after all!
…
Outside the Red Mist Land.
A gaze from the Death Domain hovered outside the territory.
Heavy, worried.
The onlooker was none other than the 'Silent Sovereign'!
The Burning Sky Monarch's guess was not wrong. If he knew that the young monarch would recklessly venture deep into the Red Mist Land, he, Silent, would definitely intervene and stop him.
But his Death Knights failed to stop the young monarch.
By the time the Death Knight reported to him, pulling him out of his secluded cultivation from a state of silent contemplation, the young monarch had already led his army deep into the Red Mist Land, striking directly at key lairs in Dragon Sleep Valley.
Too late to stop it!
"Rash! Too rash!"
Of course, the Silent Sovereign was aware that this young monarch had managed to develop the Country of Corpse and train numerous Undead Experts capable of slaying Law Realm Dukes in such a short period of time, his abilities were immeasurable.
Even in the history of the Undead Empire, he was among the best.
Terms like 'young legend,' 'future monarch,' were insufficient to describe his abilities.
He, the Silent Sovereign as a Law Realm Duke, might also find it hard to guess and understand the thoughts of such a prodigy.
He also believed that the young monarch must have powerful life-preserving means to dare to venture alone into the Red Mist Land.
But,
The young monarch was ultimately too young.
How many years had he lived since the day he was born to now?
How much could he understand about Dragon Sleep Valley or the Red Mist Land?
He utterly does not understand the Red Mist Land!
Indeed, he was swiftly targeted by Dragon Sleep Valley!
"After all, still too young, too rash."
The Silent Sovereign worried.
He had a faint premonition of the young monarch being targeted by a Saint Realm terrifying existence, the Burning Sky Monarch.
The young monarch would be facing a Saint Realm!
The difference between the Saint Realm and the non-Saint Realm was like heaven and earth.
Not to mention, Dragon Sleep Valley must have set up various things, ensuring the young monarch would not escape.
"Can he escape?"
"If he cannot ... "
The Silent Sovereign pondered.
The young monarch was almost the only hope for the rise of the Undead Empire.
But he was too reckless, too determined to go his own way.
He indeed had to take action to save him.
However, once he took action, the pressure he would face would be far more than from Dragon Sleep Valley. There were many other peak sovereigns, top beasts, watching him, waiting to catch him off guard.
The Silent Sovereign was also annoyed with the young monarch's recklessness.
"I hope that after this battle, the young monarch will learn to act with caution. Then it will all be worth it."
...
Above the chasm.
As soon as the golden Dragon's Eyes locked onto the tiny figure below, the Burning Sky Monarch struck boldly.
Before the vast sea of flames, one strand, two strands, three strands... dozens of strands of golden flames blazed into existence.
These golden flames seemed unremarkable, only the size of an ordinary human's palm, and even more insignificant compared to the immense sea of flames, like tiny droplets in the vast ocean.
However,
The presence of the golden flames was incredibly intense!
Looking at the golden flames was like gazing upon a fierce rolling Blazing Sun. It was like looking directly at a close Blazing Sun, scorchingly hot, blinding enough to flash-blind one's eyes.
Inside the palm-sized golden flames, there lied an energy no less terrifying than that of a Blazing Sun.
And with it, a Conceptual Great Force that could incinerate and extinguish everything.
Great Force—Burning Sky!
A strand of flame could set the entire Azure Sky ablaze!
A beam of fire could reduce the whole world to ashes!
This was the Concept Saint Technique wielded by the Burning Sky Monarch—born from the fusion, evolution, and elevation of Epic Level skills, and could only be executed through his own Concept Saint Body, melding the power of the body of concepts.
The Body of Concepts and Conceptual Great Force are the two major techniques of the Saint Realm Great Power Existence, transcendental above the Law Realm.
