Necromancer: I Am A Disaster-Chapter 618: The Mighty Lightning Tree King

The undead army collapsed in the thunderstorm.

Due Lin Moyu’s talent, every undead troop fell simultaneously; they lived and died as one.

Only under rare circumstances, such as a unit being struck by an overwhelmingly powerful attack, would this talent be overridden.

But as Lin Moyu’s level increased, even such exceptions became exceedingly rare.

Before half a second had passed, a new undead army rose again.

Three thrones of bones reformed in midair, and the three Skeletal Kings surged forth once more, leading the Headless Knights in a renewed charge against the Lightning Tree forest.

To kill Lin Moyu, his enemies first had to annihilate the undead army.

And to fully eliminate the undead army, they needed to kill it five times within one minute.

If one minute passed, the talent would reset.

The undead army would resurrect, and their skill cooldowns would reset.

And the undead army would gain another four revival chances.

Though the thunderstorm was fierce, it would take several minutes just to grind down the undead army even once, far from enough to threaten Lin Moyu.

Meanwhile, the Lightning Tree forest dwindled with every passing moment, while Lin Moyu’s forces only grew stronger.

Skeletal Kings swung their bone swords and cast their skills, and a large number of Lightning Trees fell.

Lin Moyu carved deeper into the mountains. Corpse Explosion cleared swaths of land, leaving nothing standing.

Above, the Undead Eye reappeared, burning with undead flames. Wherever its gaze passed, Lightning Trees perished, their souls extinguished.

In less than half an hour, more than 300,000 Lightning Trees had died.

Lin Moyu’s EXP soared past 50%; he was on the verge of leveling up yet again.

As one of the two overlords of the Wind-Lightning Continent, the Lightning Trees had never imagined suffering slaughter on this scale—just as the Wind Petals who bore the Blood Divine Disk never imagined it would be killed.

After all, who could resist a being capable of God-level combat and wielding even a trace of law force?

Unfortunately for them, they met Lin Moyu.

Worse still, he was immune to lightning. The Lightning Trees’ greatest strength meant nothing to him.

He moved through their forest as though through an empty plain, unstoppable and unscathed.

No matter how they attacked, nothing reached him.

The flames of war spread, and more and more Lightning Trees fell, slowly turning the mountain range into wasteland.

At last, the Lightning Tree king stirred.

A soul-deep roar erupted, shaking the skies as lightning serpents streaked across the air.

A soul resonance pulsed outward. Every Lightning Tree cried out in unison, answering their king.

Lin Moyu’s eyes narrowed. An arrow-like thunderbolt shot toward him.

It wasn’t ordinary lightning. It was invisible, perceptible only to the soul.

“A soul attack!”

Before he could react, the thunderbolt appeared within his soul world, piercing toward his soul like a barbed arrow.

It was the first time he’d faced a soul attack. For a heartbeat, he had no idea how to defend. He was accustomed to launching such attacks, not suffering them.

His only choice was to endure.

Suddenly, the Dragon Soul Crystal coiled around his soul let out a thunderous roar. It lunged forward, swallowed the soul attack whole, and then returned to its place as if nothing had happened.

The soul attack vanished like a fleeting illusion.

“So the Dragon Soul Crystal… can protect the soul.”

Lin Moyu was surprised, and then a surge of joy followed.

With the Dragon Soul Crystal guarding him, his soul was impregnable. He could fight without restraint.

Realizing its attack had failed, the Lightning Tree king’s fury intensified, its soul-cry reverberating like a storm.

From across the mountain range, monsters took flight, rushing toward Lin Moyu.

As the Lightning Tree king, it could not only command the Lightning Trees but also influence the monsters within the mountain range.

Lin Moyu immediately targeted them. Corpse Explosion detonated repeatedly, and Undead Gaze swept through the air.

Monsters fell mid-flight, dead before they could approach. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Then, several dark figures burst from the ground with terrifying speed.

Lin Moyu retreated just in time.

The dark figures curved through the air and struck again.

He finally saw them clearly. These dark figures were Lightning Tree roots. But this time, they came from the Lightning Tree king.

Lin Moyu was several hundred kilometers away; the Lightning Tree king was nothing more than a distant black speck.

Yet its roots could still reach him.

“The Lightning Tree king's roots… they’re this long?”

Attacking from over a hundred kilometers away… Lin Moyu was genuinely stunned.

He darted through the air, narrowly avoiding the sweeping dark figures. More dark figures erupted from the soil.

The Lightning Tree king had existed for countless years. Standing over a thousand meters tall, its roots were unimaginably vast.

One after another, massive roots tore free from the ground, striking at Lin Moyu like serpents from every direction.

Each was more than ten meters thick, making him look tiny in comparison.

Lin Moyu evaded swiftly. Though the roots were numerous, his speed was very fast, and his maneuvering range kept expanding.

Like firing cannons at a fly, the Lightning Tree king’s roots couldn’t catch him. Yet they also prevented him from counterattacking.

Suddenly, the roots all pulled back.

Lin Moyu paused, sensing something amiss.

The next moment, the roots burst up again, this time targeting the undead army.

He watched the roots coil around the Skeletal Kings, who shimmered as Absolute Defense activated.

Bone swords slashed down, severing roots. But each root was so tough it took several strikes to cut through.

And for every root they cut, more wrapped around them.

Soon, the Skeletal Kings were completely entangled and unable to move.

The Headless Knights fared no better, hurled through the air by the lashing roots.

Lin Moyu could sense information from the Skeletal Kings: once the roots wrapped around them, they would be unable to move…

And when the duration of Absolute Defense expired, they would be doomed.

“I have to deal with those roots.”

He shot high into the air, racing toward the Lightning Tree king.

Undead Gaze launched ahead of him, gazing at the Lightning Tree king in the distance.

Boom!

A shrill, thunderous cry echoed across the mountains.

Undead Gaze had dealt significant damage.

But Lin Moyu also sensed the immense strength of the Lightning Tree king’s soul.

Its soul had merged with every Lightning Tree in the entire Lightning Mountain Range, making it no weaker than a low-tier God-level expert, and even comparable to a mid-tier God-level expert.

Undead Gaze hurt it, but killing it was impossible. That wasn’t Lin Moyu’s expectation. Hurting it was enough for now.

He streaked across the hundreds of kilometers at full speed, crossing the sea of lightning and heading straight for the Lightning Tree king.

Only up close did he grasp its true scale and terror.

The main peak of the Lightning Mountain Range wasn’t hosting the Lightning Tree king, it was the Lightning Tree king itself

He had massively underestimated it.

It was connected to the entire mountain range, standing over a thousand meters tall.

Its enormous, thick roots intertwined into a vast network, spreading across the land.

All the other Lightning Trees were its offspring and subordinates.

Below it stood eighteen world boss rank Lightning Trees, each hundreds of meters tall.

None of them attacked Lin Moyu as he approached.

Their auras were linked to the Lightning Tree king, forming a lightning barrier that shielded both themselves and the Lightning Tree king.

Lin Moyu could sense rich life force from the mountain range.

Plant-type monsters were known for their incredible health reserves, and that was especially true for the Lightning Tree king.

Millions of Lightning Trees were continuously feeding it life force.

“No wonder it grew so massive.”

“If not for the rules of the Wind-Lightning Continent, it might have become a God-level being already.”

“To kill it, I must either unleash power strong enough to sever its health and destroy its soul…”

“Or I must wipe out every Lightning Tree before I can bring it down.”

He realized the difficulty of killing the Lightning Tree King. But after fighting this far, he had no intention of turning back.

The summon space trembled. The undead army revived within it.

The Lightning Tree king’s roots had annihilated them once already. But three minutes had passed, so it no longer mattered.

The undead army appeared again, along with a single throne of bones.

The Skeletal King, forged from 100,000 skeletons, rose from the throne of bones with a crushing aura.

The rune on the back of Lin Moyu’s hand lit up. Enhance Troops activated.

The Skeletal King instantly broke through to God-level.

“Attack.”

Lin Moyu gave the command, and the Skeletal King launched forward, overflowing with murderous intent.
