Catastrophic necromancer

**Chapter 1335: The Difficult-to-Kill Leader Monster**

The Tree of Death went berserk in the flames, with countless vines flailing wildly. The scorching flames burned the vines and ignited the branches, consuming the massive vines one by one.

The flames grew increasingly intense. The Fire Lich, at the ninth rank of the God King, summoned the projection of the Law Star River, wielding nearly perfect fire laws to devour the life of the Tree of Death.

The Tree of Death went mad, its vines thrashing more violently.

In this map-wide attack, the Fire Lich inevitably also suffered attacks. However, the Fire Lich was composed of elements and had no real physical body.

Ordinary physical attacks could not harm it; only laws could.

It hid within the projection of the Law Star River, greatly weakening the Tree of Death’s attacks, and did not suffer much damage.

Originally, it would not have been so smooth, but the illusion created by the Starlight Lich blinded the Tree of Death’s perception, preventing it from fully attacking the Fire Lich, thus tilting the entire battle in Lin Moyu’s favor.

Although it seemed like they had the upper hand, Lin Moyu did not let his guard down.

If leader-level monsters were so easy to deal with, they wouldn’t be called leader monsters.

After a dozen minutes, the vines were mostly burned, and the yellow sandy ground was covered with a layer of black ash. This was the ash left after the Tree of Death’s vines were burned.

The flames had already spread to the main trunk of the Tree of Death, beginning to burn it.

It seemed that the Tree of Death had no more resistance, and victory was in sight. The thousand-meter trunk, which still looked lush, would take a while to burn completely.

Suddenly, the ground trembled violently, and the yellow sandy ground rolled like ocean waves.

Sand dunes rose from the ground, then exploded, and countless roots emerged from the ground.

The roots were thicker than the vines, exuding astonishing vitality.

Given the size of the Tree of Death, its root system must be extremely developed.

At this moment, the roots emerged from the ground, appearing before Lin Moyu’s eyes.

Lin Moyu’s pupils contracted, and his gaze became serious.

Along with the roots, large amounts of clear water also emerged.

The clear water carried rich water laws, like fountains, spraying out from the ground.

In almost an instant, nearly a hundred fountains appeared on the yellow sandy ground.

The clear water from the fountains fell on the branches, temporarily halting the fire.

The water laws irrigated the Tree of Death, surging with intense vitality.

The burned vines quickly regenerated, growing back one by one at a rapid pace.

In just two minutes, the previously burned vines had fully regenerated.

Even the charred parts of the trunk were restored to their original state.

The water continued to gush out, seemingly turning the area into an oasis.

Lin Moyu focused his gaze and sensed the nearly endless water laws beneath the ground.

“There’s an underground river!”

Lin Moyu realized the answer. He understood that there was an underground river, providing an endless supply of water. Moreover, this water was imbued with laws, making it immune to the flames.

Now, even if the Fire Lich used all its power, it would be difficult to burn the Tree of Death to death.

Leader monsters were indeed not easy to deal with, completely different from ordinary monsters.

Lin Moyu thought back to his previous dungeon runs, where it was often the same.

Leader monsters were like the bosses in dungeons, naturally not easy to kill.

The regenerated Tree of Death resumed its attack, with the newly grown vines covered in a layer of water.

The Fire Lich’s damage to it was greatly reduced.

As the vines lashed out, crackling sounds were heard, as if lightning was flowing through them.

The vines were so dense that they constantly struck the projection of the Elemental Lich’s Law Star River.

The Law Star River shook continuously under the barrage.

Lin Moyu instructed the Fire Lich to retract the Law Star River, reducing the chances of being attacked, and temporarily did not need it to attack. For now, the Fire Lich’s attacks were ineffective, as the damage it caused could not keep up with the Tree of Death’s recovery speed.

Lin Moyu pondered a solution, “It’s just not easy to kill, but it doesn’t mean it can’t be killed.”

“The Stone Demons relied on numbers to push through. With a hundred or so God King eighth ranks, a strong attack could still push through.”

“If there aren’t that many God King eighth ranks, would three God King ninth ranks be enough?”

“Three God King ninth ranks, plus a dozen God King eighth rank Stone Demons, should be enough.”

“One God King ninth rank would halve the drop rate. Adding more would still halve the drop rate, so it wouldn’t affect much. Is this considered a loophole?”

Originally, he wanted to solve the leader monster with minimal cost, but now it seemed impossible.

Fortunately, due to the illusion’s influence, the leader monster had little resistance. As long as he could deal with it within the remaining time, he could get the key.

Lin Moyu stopped thinking and took out a piece of flesh from a God King ninth rank Stone Demon.

The Undying Flame burned fiercely, and numerous stones appeared out of thin air, the flesh reborn, and the soul reconstituted.

After a dozen seconds, a God King ninth rank Stone Demon appeared beside Lin Moyu.

Immediately, Lin Moyu took out all the flesh from the God King eighth rank Stone Demons.

The Undying Flame exploded, turning all the God King eighth rank Stone Demons into resurrected beings.

A total of eighteen God King eighth rank Stone Demons and one God King ninth rank Stone Demon.

Next, the Skeleton Throne appeared, and the God King eighth rank Skeleton King rose from the throne.

The Skeleton King, towering ten thousand meters high, was even taller than the Tree of Death.

However, in terms of combat power, it was indeed inferior to the Tree of Death.

Lin Moyu took a deep breath, “Let’s begin!”

His aura surged, once again activating the original spell.

A faint light flickered on his body, and with the [Gathering Power] spell, his strength rapidly increased, reaching the peak of the God King ninth rank in an instant.

A throbbing pain came from his soul, warning Lin Moyu that his soul could collapse at any moment.

Then the faint light changed, and the [Strong Soldier] spell was activated again.

Soul power was rapidly consumed, but it brought immense strength.

Including the Fire Lich, there were a total of nineteen God King eighth ranks and three God King ninth ranks. Lin Moyu did not believe they couldn’t kill the Tree of Death.

“Charge!”

At his command, all the Stone Demons curled up into balls, turning into stone spheres and rolling towards the Tree of Death.

They rolled with great momentum, breaking vine after vine.

The Tree of Death’s vines were too dense, leaving little room as they lashed out wildly.

At this moment, the Skeleton King swung its bone sword, casting the spell: God-Slaying!

The sword light exploded among the numerous vines, cutting them off and creating a path for the Stone Demons.

Lin Moyu transformed into light, charging forward at the fastest speed. He surpassed the Stone Demons, entering the path cut by the Skeleton King first.

Inside the path, there were still many vines. Lin Moyu also swung his sword, casting the spell: God-Slaying!

The same spell as the Skeleton King, but with greater power.

He was at the peak of the God King ninth rank, so it was normal for his power to be greater.

Many vines were severed, and although the Tree of Death was trapped in an illusion, it sensed the attack.

In the next moment, more vines lashed out.

Lin Moyu swung his bone sword, cutting off all the attacking vines.

The Skeleton King also arrived at this moment, its bone sword even larger, sweeping across and cutting off a large number of vines.

The Skeleton King’s attack attracted the Tree of Death’s attention, and the Tree of Death instinctively focused its attacks on the Skeleton King, clearing the way for Lin Moyu and the Stone Demons.

Lin Moyu expanded his law domain, enveloping the Tree of Death’s trunk with a massive law domain.

A strange star rose behind him, and in an instant, the Undying Law transformed into the power of death.
