Watching Ye Ying disappear into the spatial node once again, Ye Chen and Fatty's faces remained filled with worry.
"A lich! That thing is really hard to deal with!" the fat man said, frowning.
“Powerful and immortal, this kind of creature is indeed difficult to deal with!” Ye Chen nodded, but compared to that, he was thinking about something else.
"Ye Ying just said that the other party revealed himself to be a lich?"
"Hmm? That seems to be the idea?" The fat man nodded, his pupils suddenly contracting. "Wait, how could a level 4 dark creature self-destruct? Are their communication abilities that strong?"
"It seems this lich is quite extraordinary. You know, ordinary dark creatures only have the instinct to hunt and do not possess the intelligence to communicate. Only dark creatures of level 6 and above have some basic consciousness!" Ye Chen said in a deep voice, his gaze towards the spatial rift gradually becoming more profound.
On the other side, Taishan and his group, who had finally managed to kill the lich, were breathing a sigh of relief and began to clear out the surrounding skeleton warriors and ghosts. Suddenly, a dense aura of death began to gather on the battlefield, just like when the lich appeared before.
"How could this be?" Ye Xi and Tai Shan and the others exclaimed in shock, their eyes filled with horror. If another 4th-tier lich appeared, they would have no way to kill it again.
"I'm back! The lord said that the lich is unkillable, and you must find his soul box!" At this moment, the messenger Ye Ying once again sprang out from the spatial node and shouted towards Ye Xi.
"Oh, this lord seems to know quite a lot! Why not invite him in for a chat?" A mocking voice rang out, and the Lich King's figure slowly emerged, his sturdy skeleton formed directly from the immense death energy, requiring no fragments of bone on the ground.
"You!" Ye Xi was speechless. The inability to kill the dark creature was beyond her comprehension.
Taishan collapsed to the ground, having exhausted all his strength with all his lightning, but he never expected that his opponent would have the ability to revive.
"It's over! It's over! We're going to die!" The goblins cried out in a cacophony, their attacks weakening.
Fortunately, with the lich's resurrection, the attack frequency of the skeleton warriors and ghosts has slowed down.
"I told you, I just really want to see your lord. Why are we all fighting and killing each other?" the lich said calmly, seemingly unconcerned about the dead spirits around him.
"Want to see our lord? That's easy! Surrender and I'll take you to him!" Ye Xi said in a deep voice. For them, the safety of their lord was the top priority.
"Tsk tsk, what a clever clan. You must be this lord's right-hand man. I wonder if he would be heartbroken if you died here? Oh, right, and this big guy too."
"To be able to unleash attacks of level 4 or higher with the strength of a level 3 is indeed surprising. I'm curious, what races are you two?"
"I wonder how much power I can unleash after transforming it into an undead creature?"
The Lich King spoke casually, as if the people before him were already meat on his chopping block, causing Ye Xi and the others to change their expressions drastically.
"Stop him! Everyone else, prepare to evacuate!" Ye Xi shouted. Except for Mount Tai, all the mountain gods stepped forward, Yue'e followed around, waiting for an opportunity to act, while the remaining goblins took the lead in evacuating.
"Stop me? Do you think you can stop me?" The lich chuckled, gathering dark energy in his hand, and a brand new dark energy ball appeared, which he hurled towards the crowd.
"What is there to fear from demons and monsters?" Ye Xi shouted, and the Moon Goddesses around him had already swung their moon blades to intercept the energy ball in advance.
"Boom!" A huge impact came, and everyone was shaken back. The lich in the distance frowned slightly.
These members of the clan are indeed powerful enough to withstand his attacks. It's obviously impossible to capture them all in a short time, but killing a few of the big guys should be achievable.
The lich's cold gaze flickered, and a large amount of death energy began to gather in front of him again. This time, he was not using an energy ball, but a true necromancy spell, the Death Ray.
Upon seeing this spell, Ye Xi and the others felt a chill run down their spines. From the ray that had not yet been released, they sensed the threat of death.
"I heard you want to see me? A lich? Or perhaps? A former senior?" Just then, a familiar voice rang out behind them, startling both them and the Lich King.
"Lord? Hahaha! You have guts!" The lich was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, dissipating the energy in front of him. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Ye Chen didn't rush to reply, but looked at the undead creature opposite him, becoming even more certain of his guess.
This lich is not some dark creature, but a former lord who fell into darkness and became a lich.
Although it is unknown how he preserved his consciousness, he can no longer be considered a lord guarding the darkness.
The two people standing outside the spatial node already had a bad feeling. With the large-scale withdrawal of the goblins, they knew that Ye Xi and the others were powerless to resist this lich. As the lord, he needed to come and lead his people back.
At the same time, he also wanted to see what kind of lord it was that was willing to fall into darkness and become a dark creature that was neither human nor ghost.
"I've never lacked courage. But what about this senior? What is your purpose in lingering in this trial space?" Ye Chen said calmly, without a trace of fear in his eyes.
"Senior? Are you so sure I'm a lord?" Instead of answering his question, she looked at him with interest and asked him in return.
"Otherwise what? Your clan shouldn't be able to produce such a highly intelligent dark creature, right?" Ye Chen sneered, and the other party's smug smile froze instantly. This was undoubtedly an irrefutable mockery.
"A clever lad, but people like that usually don't live long!" the lich said in a deep voice, his gaze toward Ye Chen growing increasingly cold.
"Otherwise, why would you say I'm stubborn? If I were afraid of death and stupid, I wouldn't have come in today, would I?" Ye Chen said with a faint smile, casually finding a rock to sit on.
"Tell me, what do you want from me? Are you planning to possess someone? Or do you have some unfulfilled wish? By the way, my fees are very high!"
Ye Chen's words made the lich pause again. The lich stared at him silently with its crimson eyes, feeling as if the other party had guessed everything in its heart. However, upon hearing Ye Chen's words, the lich sneered.
"Heh heh~~~ Then guess what? Do I want to possess someone's body? Or is it just that I still have unfulfilled wishes?"
