Chapter 803-804, Zagrath, the God of Death
readx;
The soul fire behind the Black Warrior Emperor's mask almost rushed out, and that kind of violent emotion had not been experienced by the Black Warrior Emperor since the day he was born. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
That's a step up the ladder for yourself!
But when the two-handed greatsword infused with all the power of the Black Warrior Emperor slammed into the golden pillar of light, something unexpected happened.
The golden pillar of light did not shake for half a minute, and the two-handed giant sword was immediately bounced back, and the speed was so fast that even the Black Warrior Emperor was a little unable to dodge.
The sword flashed, and the black warrior emperor's right hand was broken at elbow, and the two-handed giant sword did not stop at all after cutting off the black warrior emperor's right hand, and then flew out thousands of meters, until a team of black warriors were all killed, and then it was obliquely inserted into the ground.
This, this, what's going on?
For this sudden change, the Black Warrior Emperor didn't react at all, and couldn't help but look at the golden pillar of light blankly.
And in the golden pillar of light, the gray skeleton was covered by the golden pillar of light at this time, and then it hung in the air, and countless golden particles emerged from the pillar of light and drilled into the gray skull's body.
Zagrath was stunned, it didn't know what was going on until now, only that the bones and bodies that had no feeling all over the body seemed to be soaked in a hot spring, and countless hot streams continued to pour into its body.
Gradually, Zagras's memories began to recover little by little, and when ā wwā„w. turned all his bones into gold, Zaglas finally regained all his memories.
So that's the case, as a great polymato, Zagras naturally doesn't have too many strangers to his current state.
No matter what this golden pillar of light was, his strength was constantly improving with the integration of those countless golden particles.
Soon, the golden particles in Zagras's body were already full, and it seemed that they could no longer hold them, but the golden particles in the golden pillar of light did not pause at all. Still burrowing into Zagrath's body.
Zagrath felt like a balloon that was constantly inflating, almost inflated to the limit, but the air gun was still pumping in.
It's going to explode!
Zagrath couldn't help but feel a little trepidation.
But soon, Zagrath felt that although he was in danger of exploding at any time, the golden particles were constantly strengthening his bones, so that this expansion remained at a critical point.
With the emergence of this state, the golden particles in Zagras's body continued to fuse under high pressure, and finally reached the extreme.
Poop, there was a soft sound, and Zagrath thought he had exploded. But in the blink of an eye, a small flame emerged from the soul fire, a faint gold, with a hint of black inside, extremely bright, completely different from the soul fire, and could be easily distinguished.
This is Divine Fire!
As a great polymath, Zagras recognized the flame at a glance.
The next moment, Zagrath felt his consciousness expand in all directions. Like a tidal wave, it quickly covered the undead plane.
At this moment, all the undead in the undead plane knelt on the ground, their soul fire trembled, and they could feel an incomparable coercion out of thin air.
This kind of coercion gave rise to an inexplicable awe in their hearts. If you seem to have the slightest disrespect, then the fire of the soul will be extinguished.
This is an instinct from the depths of the soul, even the incomparably powerful soul power of the Black Warrior Emperor Paynes could not resist this instinct, and his body that had grown to more than four meters gradually bowed down.
Paynes was on the verge of spewing flames from his visor. What a shame it was for a former high-ranking undead monarch to kneel down to a humble gray skeleton.
If it weren't for that instinctive suppression. Paynes was on the verge of jumping and desperately trying to do it.
But all the undead, all the beings in the undead plane, were controlled by the Book of Life and Death, so the flames in Paynes' armor gradually extinguished, and finally he knelt on the ground with his legs on the ground, showing his loyalty to Zaglas in the golden pillar of light.
"My name is Zagrath!"
A violent soul fluctuation swept across the undead plane, forming a majestic voice in the minds of all the undead.
"I am the embodiment of death, exercising the authority of death, and there is life and death, and there is death and life"
Zagrath, whose whole body was soaked in golden particles, muttered in his mouth, and finally grabbed his right hand forward, and countless golden particles converged on Zagrath's right hand to form a golden long sword.
Suddenly, the undead aura of the entire undead plane boiled, and countless undead stood up like a tide, cheering towards the golden pillar of light.
From this moment on, they have a god to believe in, a god to believe in.
At the same time, countless pairs of eyes looked out of the astral void to the undead plane, and they could feel that a new god had been born.
"This is the breath of death, is the god of death born?"
"How is it possible! How can death give birth to gods!"
"It's just a demigod, not enough to worry about. ā
Whether surprised, surprised, doubtful, or contemptuous, the entire undead plane is rapidly changing.
Just as the golden pillar of light shone, a huge mountain of golden bones rose from the ground and continued upwards until it reached a height of hundreds of meters above Zaglas, and then a bone throne made of bones of various colors appeared in front of Zaglas.
Just as Zagrath sat on the throne, all the undead knelt down again.
At this time, the River Styx also underwent some changes, and the upper reaches of the River Styx, which flowed from the astral void, inexplicably branched, forming countless slender sources, which merged together while entering the undead plane, and the original yellow-red river became extremely yellow, and even the river surface expanded more than ten times compared to before, and the undead plane also entered a high-speed growth again, and its area continued to expand and expand.
At this time, Zagrath could feel the wonderful feeling of being connected to the undead plane, and as long as he wanted, the power of the entire undead plane could be mobilized at will.
In this regard, he seems to be many times stronger than those demigods who have just ignited the divine fire.
After thinking about it, Zagrath, who was sitting on the throne of bones, waved his right hand, and hundreds of black points of light flew out of his fingertips.
The targets of these black points of light are the newly born gray skeletons.
When the black light drilled into the soul fire of the gray skeletons, the mutation occurred.
The white soul fire, which was originally only the size of a finger, suddenly swelled, drowning all the gray skeletons in a moment. When the soul fire retracted, the gray skeleton completely changed form.
Covered in black robes with some red stripes, he holds a chain in his left hand and a long-handled scythe in his right hand.
Jia Kedao, who was hidden on the side, couldn't laugh or cry, if it was on the earth, these transformed Death Messengers should be ghosts, but in this other world. It is impossible for the Book of Life and Death to oppose the Great Dao, so such a shape will appear.
After the transformation was completed, these Death Messengers quickly flew towards the Death Bone Mountain, and there was nothing under them, and they looked quite terrifying.
Rushing to Zagrath, the Grim Reaper messengers stood on either side and remained silent.
"Passing on the Undead Sovereign. ā
Zagras as the embodiment of death, the substitute of the authority of death, the god of death. At this point, he turned his attention to those undead monarchs.
Several Death Emissaries immediately stepped out of the ranks, bowed their heads and walked backwards.
After Zagrath towered the Grim Reaper Bone Mountain and officially became the God of Death, the terrifying coercion that covered the entire undead plane finally receded.
The Black Knight, Emperor Paynes, and other undead monarchs couldn't help but feel relieved. My mind began to calculate.
Compared to those brainless undead, these undead monarchs are much more intelligent.
But wisdom also contains some negative things, such as greed and jealousy. Selfishness and so on.
As the Black Warrior Emperor, Paynes naturally didn't want to have a master on top of his head, in his opinion. The grey skeleton that had luckily ignited the divine fire was nothing more than an even more powerful undead monarch.
Under the suppression of that incomparable power, Paynes did not dare to have any other ideas at all, but at this time, all kinds of ideas came to him.
Aside from directly confronting the newborn god of death, there is no idea of separating one side or leaving the plane.
But soon, Paynes realized that his previous ideas were a little too fanciful.
Suddenly, an undead that he had never seen before appeared in front of him, a hint of menace radiating from the razor-sharp scythe.
"My lord summons, come with me. ā
The undead who was shrouded in black robes looked at the Black Warrior Emperor with an extremely cold voice.
Paynes didn't move, and the fire of the soul locked onto the undead.
But what it never expected was that after the other party saw that he was not moving, he immediately threw a chain in his left hand towards him.
Even though Paynes tried his best to dodge and draw his two-handed greatsword to parry, he still couldn't stop the chain.
Moments later, Paynes was firmly locked in the chain, and then a tremendous force surged over him, and Paynes was unsteady on his feet, like a dead dog, and was dragged away from the mountain of bones.
Of course, Zagrath didn't summon these undead monarchs to kill them, and of course, if these undead monarchs were disobedient, Zaglas would naturally not be polite to them.
And the Reaper's actions were exactly what Zaglas did.
After being beaten, whether it was the Black Warrior Emperor or the Terror Knight, or other undead monarchs came to Zagrath, all the unruliness that was revealed disappeared, revealing only meekness.
Zagrath didn't care what these undead monarchs thought in their hearts, as long as they did what they were told.
Soon, Zagrath established a system of management similar to that of the underworld within the undead plane.
The supreme ruler of the undead plane is naturally Zagrath, the god of death, and below him are the seven undead monarchs, each of whom is assisted by four generals.
Nearly 100,000 square kilometers of land centered on the Bone Mountain of the Grim Reaper and along the River Styx are the direct territories of the God of Death, and the remaining part of the land in the undead plane is divided among the seven undead monarchs and twenty-eight undead generals according to their respective strengths, contributions, and other factors.
The entire management system of the undead plane works as follows, and all souls who follow the winds of the Styx into the undead plane will be under the management of the Death Messenger as soon as possible.
And the souls of the cultists of the gods will temporarily stay near the Bone Mountain of the Grim Reaper and participate in labor to pay for their stay in the plane of the dead.
After the arrival of the messengers of the gods, with the permission of the god of death, they can take away the souls of the believers of the gods to which they belong.
To put it simply, from this day on, the souls of all living beings need to reach the undead plane first. It doesn't matter if you are a believer or not, and after that, those believers' souls can be taken away by the messengers of the gods, and you need Zagrath's permission.
Souls that have not been taken away by the messengers of the gods will also be divided into several situations, and souls with no faith or shallow faith will be directly distributed to the undead monarchs and transformed into undead.
And the more religious souls, if they are willing to give up their faith, can do the same.
If they are unwilling to give up their faith, the Reaper will release them back into the winds of Styx and let them continue their journey.
Of course, it's hard to say whether this will end up in the abyss or hell or whatever.
Well. This is also a helpless thing, this book of life and death is still incomplete, and the six reincarnation disks are now only one phantom, and it is impossible to reincarnate those souls for the time being.
In any case, it was only after Zagrath became the god of death that the undead plane officially became operational.
The countless upper reaches of the River Styx, which had formed before, sent a dense and boundless group of soul light.
To be honest, those undead monarchs listened to Zagras's arrangement. I can't help but feel terrified.
They are not ordinary undead who don't even have memories, and the memories of their lives and some of their current special abilities make them more or less able to understand that the god of death is incomparably powerful. But the gods weren't vegetarians either.
The current situation is that the god of death doesn't know what method he used, and sent those souls that were supposed to be picked up by the divine envoy of the kingdom of God directly into the wind of the river Styx.
This is the naked snatching of the food in the mouths of the gods, take 10,000 steps back and say, even if the god of death does not have any trouble. Let those divine envoys smoothly take away the souls, which can also be called collecting tolls.
You know, the longer those souls stay in the undead plane. Then the power of faith it exudes cannot be lost to the kingdom of God, and it will eventually be intercepted by the undead plane.
And the god of death will undoubtedly become the public enemy of the gods!
The first wave of souls has been guided by the Death Emissary to fall near the Death Bone Mountain.
Due to the special field effect of the Death Bone Mountain, these souls will be transformed into their original appearance after falling.
However, this transformation is only effective in the vicinity of the Death Bone Mountain, and once it leaves this range, the body will disappear and transform back into a soul light cluster.
After the first wave of souls arrived, Zagrath couldn't wait to get these souls to work.
The spirits picked up the broken bones and bones on the ground one by one, piled them on the mountain of bones, and then began to plow the land with hoes made of bones, planting the seeds that were distributed.
This was a necessary process, and Zagrath had asked Jackodao to retrieve what he had placed in the half-plane in order to continue his research.
The test mothers need a large supply of food to sustain them, and if they want to produce food in the undead plane, then they must be cultivated by the soul to allow the plants to grow and develop.
Well, in simple terms, it's actually about consuming the power of the soul to keep the plant growing.
Therefore, after the first wave of souls finished their labor, the transformed bodies all seemed a little illusory.
The gods who had been sent by the gods to pick up souls returned for the first time in vain.
After the death of those devout believers, their souls disappeared.
Initially, the messengers had not yet reported the matter, but soon, the messengers of death sent by Zaglas informed the gods of the matter.
Upon hearing that the souls of the gods would need to go to the so-called plane of the dead to receive the news, none of the gods was not angry.
Even several powerful divine powers have sent their own avatars to find this undead plane and destroy it.
However, it was difficult to find the undead plane under the protection of the Book of Life and Death, and in the end, the gods had to temporarily accept this fact, and according to the requirements of the notice, they sent an envoy to follow the death messenger to the undead plane to receive souls.
Of course, the anger in the hearts of these gods has not subsided, and their calculation is very simple, as long as the divine envoy finds the undead plane, then he can immediately descend to the incarnation through the divine envoy!
After all, the undead plane is not the main material plane, and it should not be able to prevent the arrival of the incarnation.
But what made these gods a little stunned was that when those divine envoys followed the Death Messenger into the undead plane, they all separated their own time.
Therefore, the first god to descend on the incarnation was sad.
It descended directly on the Grim Reaper's Bone Mountain.
This god is a new god of the godhead level, called the God of Vengeance, who has just ascended the throne from a certain plane. When he encountered someone who intercepted the soul of a believer, he was naturally very dissatisfied and angry.
When his own envoy entered the plane of the dead and landed near the Bone Mountain of the Grim Reaper, the god of vengeance descended on his incarnation.
The advent of the incarnation of the gods was not small, and the mountain of death bones next to it was a little shaky.
But what the god of vengeance never expected was that the god of death was so powerful, and before his incarnation could fully manifest from the divine envoy, layers of black mist appeared around him, enveloping him.
After a few breaths, the vengeful god was unaware of his incarnation.
It was as if his avatar had been erased in an instant. There is no such thing as this world at all.
The same happened to the gods who descended after that.
As soon as the avatar descends, then the black mist gushes out and shrouds, and then the avatar is completely cut off from the real body and disappears.
It's a trap!
Suddenly, all the gods came back to their senses, and they cursed in their hearts, it was too shameless.
But even if the god of death is scolded to the blood, those incarnations will not be recovered.
What made those gods who lost their incarnations vomit blood the most was that even if they contacted the god of death, the god of death did not respond at all. It's as if it never existed.
To say that Zagrath is too happy now.
A total of five incarnations of gods have descended, all of whom are directly imprisoned by the Book of Life and Death.
If those gods send their true bodies to come, there is not much that can be done in this book of life and death, but if they send incarnations to come. That's too easy to deal with.
You know, those god incarnations get rid of divinity, divine power, these things, in essence. It's just a mass of souls, but it's much more advanced.
This book of life and death is no ordinary treasure, and it is very easy to imprison these incarnations. As long as they dare to step into the undead plane for half a step.
In any case, as soon as a few god incarnations were caught, those gods would not dare to act rashly even if they were powerful gods.
On top of that, Zagras received the best trial raw materials and parent nutrition.
Every time the experimental mother experimented, Zaglas had to take some divine tissue from the real body of the King of the Cold Wind as the core material of the experiment, so that the mother could cultivate creatures based on it.
But the recovery of the true body of the gods is too slow, especially the true body of the gods like the King of the Cold Wind, who is completely imprisoned and has no source of faith, is basically cutting a piece of flesh and missing a piece of meat.
And Zagras did not dare to untie it.
Now, five god avatars are enough to experiment with themselves for a while.
At the thought of this, Zagrath got busy.
To say that as a god, Zagras is undoubtedly incompetent.
Until now, Zagrath had not been able to coalesce his godhead, but Zaglas was able to perceive the difference between his god of death and the other gods.
After those gods ascended to the throne, they needed to condense their godheads to determine their own priesthood.
But Zagras didn't need it at all, and he didn't have the urge to condense the godhead.
For Zagrath to become the god of death, Jacodao was very satisfied.
He was even amazed at the effect of this god of death on the world.
As I said before, in this world, there was no so-called god of death before.
When those believers die, they are either sent into the winds of the River Styx, go to the abyss, and become demons, or they are taken by the divine messenger and enter the kingdom of God to enjoy eternal peace.
From this point of view, the way of death in this world is unreasonable.
Only simple birth and death, the soul will not be reincarnated, and only those souls who enter the kingdom of God can completely lose their existence and become one with the kingdom of God in the rebirth again and again.
In other words, the god of death who was supposed to appear was stolen by the gods, and each god had more or less the power of death authority.
But now it's different, with the advent of the god of death, all the authority of death has been taken back.
Even some senior pastors, bishops and other clergy of the church were shocked to find that all the divine techniques related to resurrection and death in their own magic were gone, and there was no trace left.
