"I will take the King of Sudden Death away first."

After the Underworld Fire God recovered, he couldn't wait to bring Lu Ran back to the headquarters.

"Brother Wang, this is a good opportunity. You can go to the headquarters early!" Gao Li said, genuinely happy for Lu Ran.

After all, Lu Ran is highly regarded by the Divine Religion, and he will surely be able to rise to fame along with his family.

"Uh." Lu Ran hesitated.

"Why, do you have any concerns?" asked the Underworld Fire God.

"No!" Lu Ran said.

"That's just me. I prefer research to fighting."

"For example, research on how to eliminate the drawbacks of soul-devouring."

"For example, how to create a weapon spirit."

"I originally wanted to work with Brother Gaoli to research undead weapons, but now that I'm gone, I may not have the chance..."

The Envoy of Hellfire also knew that Lu Ran must be a special talent, not just a fool who only knew how to fight and kill.

Seeing that Lu Ran's ideals were so broad, she couldn't help but say, "No problem."

"If you are interested, just go to the headquarters and tell the leader in person."

"All the research projects of the Divine Religion can be opened to you, as long as you have the talent!"

"Okay..." Lu Ran was waiting for this sentence! This time, he had to get the forging and cultivation methods of the Bone Sword Thousand Blades and even the weapon spirit.

At this time, Gao Li was moved to see that Lu Ran was about to ascend to the headquarters, but was still thinking about helping him study the spirit of the weapon.

Little did he know that if Lu Ran hadn't triggered this hidden mission, once the 30 days were up, his bone sword would have been taken away by Lu Ran for research...

As for now, now that he has returned to the headquarters, he can communicate with the forging elders in person, so Lu Ran naturally no longer thinks about the bone-breaking sword buried in the ground.

"Let's go." The Underworld Fire God stretched out his hand, and a gust of black wind swept Lu Ran up.

While Lu Ran was distracted, he was rolled onto the bone dragon. The bones were quite slippery, so he held on to them piece by piece to avoid falling.

"Is there anything else?" asked the Underworld Fire God.

"No more." Lu Ran said.

"Let's go." With that, the Underfire Messenger ordered the bone dragon to set sail, while Lu Ran's eyes fell on the corpses of giant rat beasts all over the yard, as well as on the missionary Gaoli and the girl taster.

There was silence.

"Brother Wang, see you later."

At this time, Missionary Gaoli was still waving to Lu Ran, as if he was still looking forward to meeting Lu Ran again.

Beside him, Hei Yu also nodded, somewhat curious about what kind of treatment Lu Ran would receive when he went to the headquarters.

Can I really become the Son of God?

If possible, she has also accompanied the followers of the Son of God.

"Well, bye, and thank you."

Only Lu Ran himself knew that after this departure, there might not be any chance for them to meet again.

He will most likely finish this instance after staying at the headquarters for a while.

This breakthrough secret realm will also be completely shattered.

At this moment, although he knew that the other party was just an illusion, Lu Ran was still very grateful for their help over the past half month.

As it spoke, the bone dragon slowly flew up, and then instantly rose into the clouds, flying in a certain direction. Ming'an City also became smaller and smaller...

…

On the bone dragon.

I can no longer see the face below.

Lu Ran held the bone, while the God of Hellfire stood in front, looking at the clouds.

"You look very excited."

"Aren't you afraid of heading to the cult's headquarters?"

Even without looking back, the Underworld Fire God could see the excited expression on Lu Ran's face.

She couldn't help but be surprised. Even if Lu Ran was really interested in necromancy, the rumors about the Cult of God in the outside world were not good.

The Cult of Death has always been known as the Undead Cult.

Doesn't this young man have any worries at all?

"Afraid?" Lu Ran smiled and did not respond.

[If it's a PVE-type breakthrough, I'm really scared. ]

[But what should I be afraid of in a secret place where I can return even if I die? 】

Lu Ran is now just like a player in a game. Knowing that he can be resurrected, he dares to go in even if it is a dangerous place.

Even if there was a legendary creature in front of him, he would dare to go up and take a look.

However, after only a moment of feeling swelled inwardly, Lu Ran pinched himself.

[No, you can't expand. ]

[What if I encounter a situation like Principal Shi Zhen and bring the curse from the secret realm back with me...]

High in the sky, the bone dragon continued to fly.

What Lu Ran didn't notice was that some of the Underworld Fire God's other pets were already flying in all directions at a faster speed.

…

The headquarters of the Cult of Death is located on the Star-Moon Continent, but also not on the Star-Moon Continent.

To put it in simple terms, this is a "space secret realm"! It is precisely because of the special location of the headquarters that the Death Cult, although notorious, has always maintained its foundation intact.

At this moment, in the death space, among the endless mountains, a long rainbow flew across the space and flew into a deeper void.

In the void, an old man with a pale face and wearing a simple black robe was floating in the air and sitting cross-legged in meditation. His body was filled with the souls and phantoms of dozens of terrifying creatures. They seemed to be trapped in another dimension and kept roaring outward.

Buzz.

The void ripples and flickers.

Feihong disappeared into the void. The old man gently raised his hand and pinched a ball of soul. A large amount of information flooded into his mind.

"Huh?" The old man opened his empty eyes and showed a look of surprise.

"Soul Chef..."

“Will he be the cause of the change…” The old man shook his head slightly, took a step into the void, and the soul behind him disappeared without a trace.

Not long after, inside the space, on a mountain that looked pure black in the distance, the bone dragon ridden by the God of Underworld Fire landed.

Then, he rode on the bone dragon and slowly retreated, leaving Lu Ran alone standing there in a daze.

Hmm? Sister, are you leaving now?

Being left alone, Lu Ran felt a little upset.

However, as the black-robed old man on the cliff turned around, he was stunned for a moment, but still stepped forward and said, "Greetings, Master."

"No need to be polite. I already know everything about you." The old man in black robe said, "Can you show me how you remove soul consciousness?"

"No problem, I need a giant rat beast."

"Aren't other undead the same?" The Undead Leader was silent, not understanding why Lu Ran had such a special liking for the giant rat beast.

When the Envoy of the Underworld Fire brought Lu Ran here, almost all the undead pets were dispatched to investigate Lu Ran's deeds thoroughly in Ming'an City, and then, they sent Lu Ran's information to the headquarters one step ahead.

Although it was the first time he met Lu Ran, the Undead Leader was not unfamiliar with Lu Ran.

He even knew that Lu Ran had a very good reputation among the believers in Ming'an City.

"That's fine." Lu Ran nodded.

Then, the Undead Leader waved his sleeves, and an unconscious cattle soul flew to Lu Ran.

Lu Ran took out the Zanpaku kitchen knife, first touched the Ox Spirit, then closed his eyes slightly, and after a dozen seconds... he chopped it down with one blow.

The moment Lu Ran slashed down, the faint artistic conception fluctuations emanating from his Zanpakutō were accurately detected by the Necromancer. After confirming that it was indeed a special artistic conception, he showed an expression of appreciation.

"Is this okay?" Lu Ran asked.

"Okay." The Necromancer waved his hand and said, "Child, come here."

Lu Ran looked at the old man in silence, not understanding what he was up to, but he still chose to approach him.

"Let me ask you, are you willing to become the Holy Son of the Death Cult? Do you want to become the successor of the Death Cult? Do you want to become a legendary necromancer and stand at the top of the continent?"

The series of questions from the Undead Cult Leader shocked Lu Ran.

However, although he had imagined this scene, Lu Ran knew very well why he came here.

intelligence!

What is more important than resources and identity is intelligence.

"Master, I am indeed very interested in necromancy. In addition, I found that the behavior of the missionaries in Gorri and others did not match the rumored evil cult behavior, so I wanted to join the Death God Cult to see for myself."

"I just didn't expect that I would be able to see the leader in person so soon. If my ability can help the development of necromancy, I am naturally willing to play my role. However, I want to know more about why the cult of necromancy was established." Lu Ran looked at the other party.

"Is the teaching really just superficial, 'helping beastmasters regain their lives'?"

"Well..." The Necromancer was not surprised by Lu Ran's question. He looked up at the sky again with empty eyes and said:

"Since they intend to make you the Holy Son of God, you should indeed know more."

"Indeed, I established the Death Cult. On the surface, it was to help beastmasters who lost their pets regain their new life, but in fact, it was for the future of the human race."

"The future of the human race?" Lu Ran was stunned. He never thought that the evil cult of the dead would have anything to do with the future of the human race.

“Haha.” The Necromancer laughed. He knew that a young man like Lu Ran would not understand the truth of the world. He said, “Do you know why there are only level 8 beast masters on this continent, and no level 9 beast masters?”

"Why?" Lu Ran was stunned again.

"That's because the legendary beast that controls the world will not allow humans to give birth to a ninth-level strongman."

"This is forbidden knowledge. Thousands of years ago, after humans developed the ability to tame beasts, they rose to prominence at an unstoppable speed, but this also caused many legendary beasts to be wary of them."

"Many legendary beasts were afraid that humans would grow to their peak and gain enough power to enslave them. At that time, it could be said that the survival of mankind depended on the thoughts of those legendary beasts."

"But fortunately, not all legendary beasts are hostile to humans. There are also legendary beasts that stand on the side of humans. Therefore, humans and legendary species have established a rule..."

"What rules?" Lu Ran asked hurriedly.

"Some of the legendary species changed the rules of the world and cursed the human bloodline, making it impossible for humans to break through the legend."

"But as long as there is a beastmaster who can rival the gods with his mortal body, this restriction will be lifted, and humans will be able to create legends and regain the potential to stand at the top of the world."

"However, it is not so easy to compete with the legend with a mortal body."

"It is simply impossible to do this with the existing beast control system alone. Throughout history, countless strong men have challenged the legendary realm... but all have failed."

"I founded the Death Cult under someone's instruction. All of this is to break this rule and help the human race break free from this bondage."

"That's all you need to know."

"However, the development of the necromancy department is destined to be bumpy. Although some geniuses have strong wills and can practice necromancy without being affected, they can still grow into powerful necromancers, but this is not enough!"

“If you want a field to reach its peak, it can’t be achieved by just a small group of people.”

"That is why the Death Cult wants to develop more followers, discover more talents, and strengthen this attribute. However, for ordinary beast masters, it is destined to be difficult to grow smoothly by devouring souls."

"But things are different now. The Divine Religion has been studying how to eliminate the drawbacks of devouring souls. I never expected that a young man like you who has just come into contact with the power of the dead could thoroughly study something that the Divine Religion could not figure out."

"Fate is so unpredictable." The Leader of the Undead shook his head.

"Although your method is difficult to replicate, you have already demonstrated your extraordinary talent. I would like you to continue your research and lower the threshold for ordinary people to become necromancers. How about it, little guy? Are you interested?"

“If the dead spirit system in the future really is an attribute that changes the fate of the human race, and allows the human race to no longer be at the mercy of legendary beasts, your name will surely go down in history.”

Lu Ran was shocked. He had thought of ten thousand reasons for the birth of the evil cult of the dead, but he had never expected to get this kind of explanation.

The information from the Death Cult Leader sounded quite reasonable, but somehow, Lu Ran always felt that the other party was hiding something. Was what the other party said... the truth? "Are you willing to worship me as your master and become the Holy Son of the Death Cult?" The Death Cult Leader spoke again.

"Do you have the ability to match the mind of a god with the body of a mortal?"

“Master!”

At this point, Lu Ran didn’t care whether the other party was hiding anything or not. He just shouted first without thinking twice.

He must obtain the identity of the Son of the Undead anyway.

This is related to how much resources he can get in this breakthrough secret realm in the next half month! Moreover, only by obtaining the status of the Son of God can he collect more intelligence! "Hahaha, good."

At this time, hearing Lu Ran's call, the Undead Leader also smiled and nodded with satisfaction.

"From now on, King of Death, you are the first disciple of my legendary necromancer, Los, and the Holy Son of the Cult of Death!!!"

Lu Ran looked at the old man in black robe, his heart churning.

Oh my god, mom and dad, you guys have made it to the top of the other side, and I… have somehow made it to the top of the undead forces of the Star-Moon Continent… and I’m even at the level of an heir! …

On this day, every mountain in the death space shook violently.

One after another, necromancers proficient in various schools received the news and showed shocked expressions.

"What? The leader has come out of seclusion? And he has accepted a disciple?"

"Has the long-vacant position of the Holy Son finally been confirmed?"

The moment they received the news, although they didn't know whether there would be any special ceremony held in the church, these undead elders still subconsciously looked for treasures, such as dragon souls, phoenix souls... After all, they couldn't go to see the new Holy Son empty-handed.
