Legend of the Embroiderer

Chapter 804 Ancient Awakening (2)

"Prepare for battle!" the fusion entity commanded. "Yan Jin, Cang Lan, come with me and charge in to find the rune fragments."

"Lord of Nothingness, Queen of Magic, Elder of the Elements, lead the fleet to hold back the undead creatures and decaying warships, buying us time!" "Understood!" the crowd responded in unison.

The three—the Fusion Body, Yan Jin, and Cang Lan—transformed into three streaks of light, breaking through the obstruction of the undead creatures and flying towards the depths of the Netherworld.

The interior of the Netherworld was even darker, and the death energy was so concentrated that it was almost solidified; inhaling it made one's soul tremble.

The ground was covered with bones, the mountains were made of skulls, and a mournful wail echoed in the air, sending chills down one's spine.

"The energy of the rune fragment is just ahead."

The fused entity sensed the guidance of the fragment in its hand and increased its flight speed.

Soon, the three arrived at the center of the Netherworld Death Domain, where there was a huge palace of the dead. At the top of the palace was an object that emitted a faint golden light, which was the third dimensional origin rune fragment.

But at this moment, a familiar figure was standing in front of the palace – the decaying dimensional messenger he had encountered in the Starfall Ruins, accompanied by countless powerful undead creatures, including some enormous undead beasts.

"We meet again."

The Decaying Messenger sneered, his eyes full of mockery. "I didn't expect you to make it here alive. However, the rune fragments aren't so easy to obtain."

"Without further ado!"

The fused entity raised its multicolored lightsaber. "Hand over the fragments, or don't blame us for being impolite!" "Impolite?"

The decaying messenger sneered, "Just the three of you?"

"Today I will leave you here in this Netherworld forever, to become part of the undead!" He waved his hand, and countless undead creatures immediately rushed towards the three of them.

These undead creatures, though lifeless, are incredibly powerful, impervious to pain, and exist in astonishing numbers.

Flame immediately released its life force, and green vines surged out like a tide, entangling the undead creatures charging at the forefront.

Vital energy is the nemesis of undead creatures; undead creatures entangled by the vines instantly begin to wither and disintegrate.

"It seems your energy is working well on them."

Canglan said, immediately manipulating spacetime energy to freeze the undead creatures behind him, relieving the pressure on Yan Jin.

The fusion entity, wielding a multicolored lightsaber, charged towards the Decaying Messenger. Her target was the rune fragments; she didn't want to get entangled with these undead creatures any longer.

"Want to get past me? You'll have to get through me first!"

The Decaying Messenger waved his staff, and a black energy chain shot towards the fused entity.

The fusion body dodged to the side, swung its lightsaber, severed the energy chains, and continued charging towards the palace.

The Decay Messenger's expression darkened, and the black gem at the tip of his staff emitted a bright light, sending countless rays of decaying energy toward the fused entity.

The fusion entity infused the energy of the rune fragments into the lightsaber, causing it to burst forth with a dazzling golden light. As it was swung, it formed an energy barrier that blocked all energy rays.

As she approached the palace gates, the ground suddenly trembled, and a colossal undead beast emerged from the ground, blocking her path.

This undead behemoth was hundreds of feet tall, its entire body covered in hard bone armor, and it held a huge bone knife in its hand, exuding a terrifying aura.

"Get out of my way!"

The fusion entity roared and unleashed its lightsaber with all its might, sending a golden sword aura hurtling toward the head of the undead behemoth.

The sword energy struck the bone armor with a loud bang, and a crack appeared in the bone armor, but it did not break.

The undead behemoth roared and swung its bone blade at the fused entity. The fused entity dared not take the blow head-on and immediately dodged the attack.

The bone blade cleaved the ground, instantly splitting it open into a massive chasm. Seeing this, Yan Jin and Cang Lan immediately abandoned their fight against the ordinary undead creatures and charged towards the undead behemoth.

Flame's vines entangled the undead behemoth's limbs, while Azure Wave manipulated spacetime energy to freeze its body.

The undead behemoth was unable to move, and the fusion entity seized the opportunity to swing its lightsaber again, the golden sword energy continuously slashing at the previous crack.

With a crisp "crack," the undead behemoth's bone armor shattered completely, and the sword energy pierced through its skull. The undead behemoth let out a mournful howl, and its body slowly collapsed, turning into a pile of white bones.

Having defeated the undead behemoth, the three finally stormed into the undead palace. The palace's interior was filled with dark runes, exuding an aura of decay and death.

The third rune fragment was embedded in the throne at the top of the palace, protected by a black energy barrier.

"The rune fragment is right there!"

"Flame pointed at the throne and said. The Decaying Messenger also rushed into the palace, his face full of ferocity: "You think you can get the fragment like this? Dream on!" He waved his staff, and the dark runes on the palace walls suddenly lit up, and countless black energy tentacles emerged from the walls, attacking the three of them.

At the same time, the black energy barrier surrounding the throne also became more solid.

The fused entity's eyes sharpened as it took out the golden orb of light given to it by the Dimensional Guardian: "It seems we have no choice but to use this."

She threw the golden ball of light toward the black energy barrier. The ball of light burst into intense light in the air, turning into a golden pillar of light that struck the energy barrier.

The energy barrier cracked instantly under the impact of the golden beam of light, and finally shattered.

"No!" The Decaying Messenger roared, trying to rush forward to stop it, but his feet were entangled by the vines of Flame. Taking advantage of the opportunity, the fused entity leaped towards the throne, reaching out to retrieve the rune fragment.

Just as her fingers were about to touch the fragment, it suddenly burst out with a black light, and a powerful suction force came from it, holding her firmly in place.

"what happened?"

The fused entity was startled and tried to break free, but found that the suction was getting stronger and stronger, and the energy in its body began to flow uncontrollably towards the fragments.

Yan Jin and Cang Lan also noticed the abnormality and wanted to go forward to help, but they were blocked by a black energy wall that suddenly appeared.

The Decaying Messenger broke free from the vines and laughed loudly: "Didn't expect that, did you? This third rune fragment has long been corrupted by our Decaying Dimension! Anyone who tries to touch it will be eroded by the decaying energy within the fragment and eventually become a puppet of the Decaying Dimension!"

The fused being felt a chill run down her spine as she sensed a cold, decaying energy spreading from her arm throughout her body. Her consciousness began to blur, and the primal energy within her body clashed fiercely with the decaying energy, causing her immense pain.

"Master Fusion!" Yan Jin and Cang Lan shouted anxiously, attacking the black energy wall repeatedly, but the energy wall remained unmoved.

The Decay Messenger walked to the energy wall, looking at the fusion body gradually being eroded by the decaying energy, his face full of smugness: "Soon, you will become the most powerful puppet in our decaying dimension. At that time, collecting the rune fragments will be a piece of cake, and the multidimensional world will be completely overrun!"

The fused entity gritted its teeth, desperately resisting the erosion of the decaying energy. A resolute glint flashed in its eyes as it tried to mobilize all the energy within its body to perish together with the fragments.

The two rune fragments in her hands suddenly burst forth with intense golden light, resonating strongly with the corrupted third fragment.

The golden light surged into the third fragment with the suction force, engaging in a fierce battle with the decaying energy within.

Loud energy collisions echoed continuously from within the fragments, with black and golden light flashing alternately.

The fused entity felt the suction force within its body gradually weaken, and the erosion by the decaying energy also stopped.
