...

Fang Zhou spent his remaining tens of thousands of Soul Power to develop and master the highest-priority Undead Mage skills one by one.

This process consumed nearly everything he had accumulated during this period.

This accumulation referred not only to Soul Power and contribution points but also to the knowledge reserves and Skill Materials Fang Zhou had acquired through various means, as well as all the research results from the Undead Mage research group led by Su Xinyan and Sandro.

As for the skills that weren’t as urgent to perfect, Fang Zhou planned to wait for the next stage, holding off on their refinement until he found suitable inspiration.

Objectively speaking, limited by his dwindling Soul Power and contribution points, Fang Zhou had no choice but to temporarily set these skills aside. He would have to wait until he acquired more Soul Power before making any further plans.

"Money makes the world go round." That phrase was a perfect description of Fang Zhou’s current situation.

Previously, during the Apprentice and Black Iron stages, he had been able to enhance himself almost at will, thanks to an abundance of Soul Power and contribution points.

However, he had just broken through his bottlenecks and advanced to a Bronze-tier Undead Mage. Before he even had a chance to accumulate anything new, the Soul Power and contribution points he had worked so hard to save were already depleted during this series of enhancements.

At this moment, Fang Zhou felt as if he had returned to the penniless days of his initial Awakening.

This undoubtedly slowed the pace of his power progression.

How to obtain more contribution points and Soul Power had once again become a major challenge facing Fang Zhou.

...

Over the next few days, Fang Zhou adapted to his surge in power at the skill training grounds in Beast Fighting City. He was originally planning to visit the Fierce Beast Mountain Range to practice on the fierce beasts in the outer regions, but a sudden attack disrupted his plans.

「Under the Blood Moon, in the Wasteland of Strife.」

Following his plan, Fang Zhou had chosen to manifest his Corpse Tomb in the same undead territory where he was first teleported.

The reasons were simple.

First, it was a relatively secluded location that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

It would be impossible to breach his tomb without paying a steep price.

Second, the somewhat powerful Undead Lords in the vicinity had all been wiped out by Fang Zhou’s earlier sweeping operations, leaving basically no one who could threaten him.

Therefore, Fang Zhou was quite confident that the location was safe.

He never expected that after being away in the Chiguo Plain for a dozen or so days, his Corpse Tomb would actually be attacked.

By the time Fang Zhou rushed back to the vicinity of the Corpse Tomb, the battle was still ongoing.

Under Olaf’s tutelage, Tidamia had certainly developed some skill. At least his command over zombies and other low-level undead units far surpassed that of the other low-level lords in the Wasteland of Strife.
