Chapter Seventy-Four: The Ascension of the Soul Fire

After a fierce battle with Locke, the two girls felt quite tired. After all, none of them are powerful warriors and mages, just ordinary people, and they don't have too much physical energy, so they will naturally feel tired.

After Locke stopped moving, their desires were also vented, and after a while, they fell asleep by the pool.

After sensing his physical condition, Locke found that the two girls had fallen asleep, and quietly left the room specially prepared for himself.

When I came to the banquet hall, the hall was just as quiet at this time. Most of them had already left the hall, and only a few were still asleep on chairs in the corners of the hall. After all, in a few hours, the banquet was already over.

"It's time to go back. Locke sighed lightly.

Quietly walked out of the banquet hall, and the two middle-level warriors who came with Locke were also resting outside the hall at this time. After waking up the mid-level warrior, Locke returned to his yard.

The fierce battle with the two women consumed Locke's vitality, and also consumed the energy stored in Locke's body, making Locke feel extremely hungry.

After eating another meal of demonic beast meat, Locke felt the hunger in his body subside, and the strength returned to his body.

It was late at night, and most of Loki's plane were asleep. However, as an undead creature, Locke is still in good spirits, and he doesn't have the slightest feeling of wanting to rest.

With a thought, Locke once again pulled out the mage's codex he had obtained from the necromancer.

There were many contents on the Mage's Codex that Locke didn't have time to review.

After studying the necromancy of undead summoning again, Locke began to study necromancy once more.

The long magic spell was chanted from Locke's mouth again, and this time Locke felt that his spiritual power was being consumed rapidly, far faster than before.

However, this time he cast the undead magic Locke without success.

The first unsuccessful release of the magic that summoned the fifth-level undead was also expected by Locke.

With Locke's current mental power, which is enough to cast such a very consuming undead magic more than ten times, Locke believes that he will always be able to summon a fifth-level undead creature.

After all, Locke's spiritual power is much stronger than that of the former necromancer, and the necromancer's mental power is enough to support him to summon six fifth-level undead creatures, and Locke's spiritual power is naturally no problem to summon more than ten undead creatures.

After the first summoning failed, Locke breathed a sigh of relief and began to chant the magic spell again.

As Locke chanted incantations again and again, the spiritual power in Locke's soul fire was also rapidly consumed.

Locke found that as his mental power decreased, the next time he cast the spell again, his mental power consumption was a little more than the last time.

Locke cast four spells in a row, all of which ended in failure.

When Locke's spiritual power was consumed by more than half, Locke, who cast the spell again, finally felt that he had connected with a fifth-level undead creature in the undead plane through the relationship of the summoning contract.

Locke was overjoyed in his heart, knowing that there was a chance that this summoning would be successful.

When Locke was summoned, he had already prepared everything, just waiting for the arrival of the summoned creature. The heavy sword obtained from the thick eyebrow bandit has long been caught by Locke, and once a summoned creature appears, Locke with a heavy sword can eliminate the opponent in an instant.

Under the effect of the contract, the magic power in Locke's body began to be rapidly consumed. The reason why these mana powers are rapidly consumed is precisely to allow the undead creatures of the undead plane to break through the barrier of the plane and come to the Loki plane.

The undead creatures who responded to Locke's summons did not know what their fate was.

With a flash of white light, a skeleton appeared in Locke's room.

Seeing the undead creature arrive, Locke lifted his heavy sword and beckoned to the summoned creature. At the same time, Locke also activated some abilities as a contract summoner, trying to suppress the strength of this undead creature.

After all, this time Locke summoned a fifth-level undead creature of the same level as Locke, although with Locke's strength, he could definitely easily crush a fifth-level undead creature, or even a sixth-level undead creature. However, as a summoned undead creature, it signed a contract with the undead plane, and also has the ability to return to the undead plane at any time, of course, it takes time to return to the undead plane, and it must communicate with the undead plane before it can return.

Therefore, if Locke wants to slash the opponent and take the soul fire to devour them, he must defeat them and consume their soul fire before he returns to the undead plane. Otherwise, even if an undead creature is completely destroyed, only the undead fire remains, and the undead creature can still escape back into the undead plane.

Locke's heavy sword struck the summoned skeleton warrior in an instant.

Under the great force, the head of the undead creature was instantly knocked down by Locke.

Although the bones of the fifth-level undead creature were hard, it was impossible for them to fight with Locke's heavy sword without shattering. In Locke's opinion, not to mention a fifth-level undead creature, even an ordinary sixth-level skeleton creature was hit in the neck by his own heavy sword, and Locke believed that the opponent's head would also be knocked away by his own blow.

Of course, if you can't hit it yourself, it's a different story.

This skeleton warrior had just been summoned to the Loki plane, and before he could react, he felt a sudden weakness, not because of Locke's undead curse magic, but because of the summoning contract. After feeling a burst of weakness, the skeleton warrior suddenly took an unknown blow and lost the power to resist.

The undead creatures who knew that the way was not good, instantly began to contact the undead plane, trying to return to the undead plane with the help of the summoning contract. Escape this unknown danger.

Discarding the greatsword, Locke leapt to the head of the undead creature, picked up the head of the other party that had been shot down by himself, and wrapped his spiritual power in the flickering soul fire of the undead creature.

The undead creatures, only the head remained, and there was no threat to Locke, and there was no power to resist.

The skeleton warrior with only the head left was contacting the undead plane, but Locke didn't give it time.

The spiritual power enveloped the other party's soul fire, and Locke just opened his mouth to inhale, and his soul fire was sucked into his head by Locke, and instantly merged into Locke's soul fire. In such a short period of time, the skeleton warrior had even become a part of Locke before he even connected to the undead plane.

Fusing the soul fire of this skeleton warrior, Locke immediately sensed that more than half of the spiritual power that had been consumed began to recover rapidly. In just a few seconds, Locke's mental power had recovered to more than sixty percent of what it had been in its heyday.

At the same time, Locke's soul fire also began to increase significantly. Of course, after all, Locke's devouring fusion is only the soul fire of a fifth-level undead creature, although Locke's soul fire has been significantly improved, but it is still far from being promoted to a sixth-level undead creature.

Summoning a fifth-level undead creature, the magic power in Locke's body was also consumed a lot.

Compared with the recovery of mental power, Locke is more troublesome in recovering his magic power.

Slashing the soul fire that devoured this fifth-level undead creature, although Locke's strength increased slightly, it already proved that Locke was able to continue to advance rapidly in the Loki plane, thereby improving his strength.

This time, Locke summoned all fifth-level undead creatures, and there was no waste of magic power in his body, although a lot of magic power in Locke's body was consumed, but with the magic power stored in Locke's body, it was not a problem to summon three or four fifth-level undead creatures.

Summoning the Skeleton Warrior Fire, Locke paused for a few minutes before summoning it again. It was another half an hour before Locke had to stop summoning the undead creatures, but at this time, including the first fifth-level undead creature, Locke had already summoned the soul fire that devoured three fifth-level undead creatures.

Although the magic power in Locke's body was enough for Locke to summon a fifth-level undead creature, Locke's spiritual power was already close to the bottom line, and he sensed that if he continued to summon, there was not much hope of success, so Locke naturally stopped summoning.
