Amazing! Did they give me the wrong newbie gift pack?

Book from last chapter

Ge Xiaolun fell into a coma early on after being pierced by the God-Slaying Halberd and was unaware of what happened next.

So he could only look at Liu Chuang with anxiety. He remembered that Zhao Xin had been swept away by the opponent's halberd in one blow! His entire chest cavity had been slashed open.

“Master Xin is still receiving treatment. Even Yaowen is seriously injured like Master Xin and will probably need to rest for a long time,” Liu Chuang said with a somber expression.

This was the first time he had felt so powerless. It was also the first time he had witnessed just how powerful the so-called gods truly were.

Upon hearing Liu Chuang's words, Ge Xiaolun's eyes also dimmed.

This time, he was instantly killed by the opponent, without even having the strength to fight back.

Seeing the two silent figures, Lena could only comfort them, "Don't be discouraged. Xuan Tianji is already several thousand years old and has a third-generation divine body. If you were also third-generation divine bodies, he couldn't have defeated you so easily."

"I know, Sister Na, I just didn't expect the so-called third-generation god to be so strong." Liu Chuang pounded his hand in frustration after hearing Lena's words of comfort. "We were like children in front of them, completely powerless. We couldn't even protect our comrades!"

"Alright, you and I are among the three great god-making projects of the Shenhe Civilization. You will definitely grow into third-generation main gods in the future. Don't be discouraged by this setback." Lena comforted Liu Chuang, but she was equally annoyed because her own inner shadow had caused her teammates to be seriously injured.

Zhao Xin was alright; although he had been attacked by the God-Slaying Halberd and suffered a cut to his chest, the wound was not deep, and he had recovered considerably thanks to timely treatment.

The most serious case is Cheng Yaowen, whose entire chest cavity was pierced by the God-Slaying Halberd, and his body is not as tough as Ge Xiaolun's. Even with Yuqin and his own energy supply, he will probably have to lie in bed for at least a month.

"By the way, Sister Na, what about that Xuan Tianji?" Ge Xiaolun suddenly realized and asked.

"They're locked up and beaten by Mo Xie!" Qi Lin, who had been silent until now, pointed to a small, faintly visible space in the sky and said.

"Xiao Mo? Is he alright on his own?" Ge Xiaolun asked with some concern.

Rose explained, somewhat speechlessly, "Didn't you hear Qi Lin say that he was locked up and beaten?"

"Huh? Uh, hahaha! Sorry!" Ge Xiaolun, regaining his senses, scratched his head awkwardly.

However, this time Rose did not mock the other party, even though the other party's performance was indeed terrible before the Tianhe Battle.

But after realizing the truth, whether it was cooperating with Liu Chuang and others to take down Feng Huo, or cooperating without hesitation after Liu Chuang made his move, it all proved that the other party had realized the truth.

But Rose looked at Lena with some concern and asked, "Captain, if Mo Xie kills your subordinates like this, won't it have a negative impact on you?"

Although she also wished she could kill Xuan Tianji, Lena was, after all, the other party's chief god. Wouldn't watching her subordinates die cause trouble for the people of Lieyang Star?

Judging from Xuan Tianji's behavior and words, Lena's situation on Lieyang Star seems to be not good.

Upon hearing this, Liu Chuang frowned and asked, "That's right! Sister Na, although I wish I could tear that bastard to pieces, he's also your subordinate. If Mo Xie kills him directly, won't it affect you?"

Hearing Liu Chuang and the others' words, Lena felt a warmth in her heart. Even though they were seriously injured and wished they could tear Xuan Tianji to pieces, they were still worried that Xuan Tianji's death would cause them trouble.

But Lena shook her head firmly and said, "Xuan Tianji has gone against my will and is already a traitor! Let alone killing him! Even if we wipe out his family, it's just cleaning house! Xiao Mo is someone I have high hopes for! If he wants to kill me, it means I want to kill him!"

"Let the blood of this traitor remind those old fogies who the true god of Lieyang Star is!"

High in the distance

Upon hearing Lena's words, Mo Xie smiled slightly and said through the communicator, "Sister Na, are you going to marry me? If so, I'll help you completely eliminate this traitor."

"Hmph! Fine! Then tomorrow you'll come back to Lieyang Star with me and be my prince. How about that?" Lena replied nonchalantly.

"Hehehe, Prince Lieyang is in a bit of a predicament. After all, I'm already a prince of the angels. I'm afraid Pipi Xi will dissect me for research."

"But I do have some use for this guy. Can you hand him over to me?"

"Didn't I already say it? Your meaning is my meaning! I support you in this matter. Don't even mention killing him! Even if you want the lives of his family, I'll bring them all here and wipe them out! Traitors don't deserve my mercy!"

"Rena said viciously. This time, Xuan Tianji had completely enraged her! This was the first time in her life she had felt such murderous intent towards someone."

Upon hearing this, Mo Xie no longer held back. Although he had already used several powerful moves, he still had some reservations because of Lena's sake.

But now?

"Magic Zone!"

With the emergence of the Mind-Based Star Palace, the bizarre mental attack completely dragged Xuan Tianji, who was already in a sorry state from the quadruple attack, off the cliff.

In a mere instant, the tearing sensation in his soul drove him to near madness! Immediately following, the already overwhelming lightning, flames, and storms rained down upon Xuan Tianji's long-decayed divine body.

As the thunder subsided, the flames died down, and the storm dissipated, Xuan Tianji, completely injured, lay motionless, clutching his head with a blank stare.

You should know! Last time, Mo Xie only used a mid-level sound-based spell and it caused Lena a lot of pain!

This was a genuine, high-level mental attack. The fact that Xuan Tianji's soul wasn't completely torn to shreds on the spot was thanks to the unwavering will forged through his thousands of years of warrior experience.

The crowd, who had watched the battlefield subside from afar, slowly approached and looked at the miserable Xuan Tianji with expressions of relief.

With his last breath, Xuan Tianji looked at Lena as she slowly approached and pleaded with her eyes full of despair, "I...I...God...Lena...save...save me! Goddess Lena...Ugh!...Please save me!...I am the Heavenly Protector of Lieyang Star...If...Master knows I'm dead...he won't let Earth go...Goddess Lena...save me!"

Xuan Tianji's tone was filled with a thirst for life, completely casting aside his previous disdain for Lena. The threat of death made him abandon all pretense of dignity, hoping only that Lena could give him some energy to restore his divine body and save his life.

Upon hearing Xuan Tianji's words, the members of the Super Soldier Squad, who were already dissatisfied with him, looked at this guy with even more disgust, who was threatening others even when he was about to die.

Lena scoffed, "Save you? Just some traitor?"

He then angrily rebuked, "Don't think it's just you today! Even if it were Pan Zhen! Daring to treat me like this is blatant betrayal! Traitors must get what they deserve!"

Then she turned to Mo Xie and said, "What do you plan to do with him? If it's inconvenient for you to do it, I'll finish him off myself!" She thought Mo Xie was only sparing her life because he was considering her feelings.

Mo Xie shook his head and replied, "He will naturally die, but he must die meaningfully!"

As he spoke, Mo Xie suddenly teleported a corpse out of the spatial system.

Then, a thick, gray aura of death suddenly emanated from his body. As the death aura around Mo Xie solidified, a flash of scarlet blood appeared in his eyes.

"Whispers of the dead: Move the body, exchange the soul!"

Then, the gray stars connected to form a star palace that enveloped Xuan Tianji and the corpse.

As the death energy flowed into Xuan Tianji's already damaged divine body, it gradually recovered, but he felt no joy whatsoever. Instead, he cried out in terror, "No! No! Let me go! No! Ah!!!! Ugh!!!!!"

As Xuan Tianji let out a mournful wail like a demon, a soul was slowly pulled out of his body.

The soul, rendered ethereal by the mental attack of sound magic, flailed its arms in terror and rage, begging to return to its body.

At the same time, a soul among the corpses beside him stared blankly at everything that was happening before him. Before he could think any further, the surrounding death energy continued to crush, merge, and compress Xuan Tianji's soul.

Accompanied by a piercing wail, the soul of the corpse that had just awakened and was still somewhat dazed, as well as the members of the Super Soldier Squad who had witnessed the whole thing, all felt a chill run down their spines.

The soul of Xuan Tianji, which had initially taken human form, slowly transformed into tiny fragments. Then, enveloped in deathly energy, these fragments gradually merged into the newly awakened soul.

Amidst the other's bewildered gaze, his soul was once again enveloped and merged into Xuan Tianji's body, which had already had its soul extracted.

As the soul merged and a large amount of undead power continued to pour in, Xuan Tianji's original body was constantly being transformed.

His face was ashen, his eyes bloodshot, and a menacing black helmet and dark red armor covered his entire body. The god-slaying halberd beside him slowly transformed into a silver-gray longsword.

As the physical body underwent further transformation to better align with the newly integrated soul, the bluish-gray face gradually became clearly visible.

Ducao and many generals aboard the Great Gorge were shocked to discover that the face seemed extremely familiar.

"Chen Tao!"

It wasn't until Lianfeng urgently recalled everyone and everything around Moxie that she immediately shouted.

Everyone was shocked upon hearing the name. Chen Tao? The company commander who sacrificed himself to save Mo Xie? This? Mo Xie actually brought him back to life in this way?

Unaware of the shock inside the Giant Gorge, Mo Xie continued with her operations.

Under Mo Xie's control, the necromantic energy, which had already been shaped, began to devour the remains of the Taotie soldiers who had died throughout Tianhe City.

As the deathly aura grew increasingly dense, the undead, now fully formed, began to devour all the surrounding deathly energy. And following closely behind, Chen Tao's soul merged into his body!

Countless undead powers enveloped Chen Tao and Xuan Tianji's bodies, making it impossible to see anything from the outside.

All that could be seen was a figure constantly devouring all the surrounding necromantic energy.

As the figure was devoured, the surrounding aura of the dead gradually dimmed and disappeared, and the figure emerged from the gray, deathly aura.

Beneath the grey-black helmet, a face that should have been sunny and resolute was made terrifying by a pair of scarlet eyes. The imposing dark red armor spoke of a crimson whisper of death. The longsword at his waist, scabbed in a black sheath, constantly gleamed with a blood-red afterglow.

"What? I've been resurrected?"

The hoarse voice was like a razor scraping against the ears of everyone present.

"I'm sorry, I don't have the ability to revive you. This body will allow you to protect this beautiful country in the future, and it's my way of repaying you for the favor you did for me! You saved me! This is my way of giving back!"

If you don't like it, you can simply discard this body and turn it into a puppet. But I can't guarantee that whoever gets it will be as steadfast in upholding their own beliefs as you are!

Upon hearing Mo Xie's words, the figure remained silent, then looked at the smoke-filled battlefield and could already imagine the cruelty of war.

"Thank you, I love your gift. I will use it to protect my beloved mother! Does this body have a name?"

His hoarse voice carried an unprecedented firmness, and this was the determination Mo Xie had made after seeing Xuan Tianji.

"The Lord of the Dead!"
