Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone

....

Stepping through the Blood Moon Observatory, into the rift, the first thing Fang Zhou felt was the endless impact of frenzied Death Energy.

This impact was countless times greater than the Death Energy Prism he had willingly endured in the City of Strife!

Fortunately, Fang Zhou’s body strength was already akin to equipment of purple rare quality, this level of impact was nothing to him.

Even Uriel, the Bone Dragon, had a body strength not inferior to that of ordinary Gold Lower Rank Undead, capable of withstanding the long-lasting impact of this energy torrent.

However, the danger within the rift wasn’t limited to the energy impact.

Rising upstream through the rift into the high-energy fragment of the Undead Realm, is akin to crossing a Teleportation Array, instantly traversing billions of miles to appear in another place.

Its essence is still the folding and utilization of space.

But, unlike before, a Teleportation Array within an Undead Realm fragment only facilitates localized transmission, avoiding spatial turbulence.

Even the arrays connecting Blue Star’s native land and Beast Fighting City have detailed spatial coordinates and markers to ensure smooth transmission.

In contrast, Fang Zhou’s current upstream journey through the rift was equivalent to traversing layer upon layer of folded and distorted space without the protection of Teleportation Array power.

Traversing the endless distances between Undead Realm fragments, ultimately guided by the Death Energy, arriving at a new high-energy fragment!

Without the Teleportation Anchor set by the Tomb’s Teleportation Array, a slight mishap could result in being swept into spatial turbulence!

A legendary Golden Undead Species, and a rare Silver grade Bone Dragon, bore the frenzied upstream Death Energy impact.

With their bodies and will, they charged towards the high-energy fragment!

Beside Fang Zhou were streaks of light.

These streaks weren’t true light, but rather manifestations of Undead Realm fragments within the spatial turbulence as they traversed folded and twisted space.

These fragments might be endless battlefields, or lifeless empty worlds.

However, from the energy level perspective, most were inferior to the Wasteland of Strife where Fang Zhou was previously.

Incapable of supporting golden-level powerful energy.

Thankfully, despite the peril, the journey proceeded smoothly without any accidents.

After an unknown length of time, Fang Zhou and Uriel finally discovered the exit from the energy torrent!

In a burst of joy, they doubled their speed.

Facing increasing pressure, they rushed out of the energy torrent at the fastest speed!

In the next moment!

A silent, desolate, fragmented world filled with extremely dense Death Energy appeared before their eyes!

.........

Fang Zhou stood up on the skull of Bone Dragon Uriel, then began observing the surroundings.

All around was wasteland, even within sight, Fang Zhou saw no sign of life.

The land on the ground was pitch black, and even the distant plants appeared twisted.

The air was filled with ample and frenzied Death Energy that Fang Zhou could sense directly without starting cultivation.

This concentration of Death Energy was at least ten times that of the Wasteland of Strife, a truly absurd state.

This made Fang Zhou’s heart tense up.

It’s well known that in places with higher Death Energy concentration, the combat power of Undead Creatures there is higher.

For Fang Zhou and Uriel, who arrived via the Tomb Teleportation Gate, this was certainly not good news.

The stronger the native Undead, the more dangerous their situation becomes.

Fang Zhou spread some Soul Fire, not daring to release it too far.

Using Soul Fire to scout while detecting other Undead Creatures might at the same time lead to being detected.

No Undead Creatures were found around, only desolate landscapes within sight.

Fang Zhou lifted the still dazed, not completely awakened Uriel, a cold current smacked into Uriel’s soul, quickly awakening him.

Then, riding on Uriel, Fang Zhou quickly flew away from the location.

Fang Zhou wasn’t sure if the Tomb Teleportation Gate would cause any phenomena upon landing, potentially attracting native Undead, hence staying away was crucial.

After covering some distance, Fang Zhou found a sizable deep pit, stepped on Uriel, and jumped in.

Next, he casually struck the pit wall, excavating a horizontal cave.

After simply placing some alert devices around, Fang Zhou returned to the cave.

He intended to feel if there was any difference between this Death Energy and the Death Energy from the Wasteland of Strife.

As he began to operate Soul Fire, continuous Death Energy surged into his body.

Yet this feeling wasn’t very pleasant.

If absorbing Death Energy from the Wasteland of Strife felt as sweet and fresh as drinking sugar water, then absorbing here felt like drinking pepper water.

Though plenty and nutritious, the taste was truly hard to swallow and a bit rough on the throat.

As he was cultivating, he suddenly discovered something wrong with his Undead Blood Moon authority.

Originally intending to find a suitable base in the new Undead Realm fragment, he wanted to, just like before, actualize his Tomb Territory at the cost of massive Soul Power and Undead Essence.

Then deploy his loyal and capable Tomb Undead Leaders to lead the Tomb Army in expanding and exploring around.

But unfortunately, an unexpected event occurred.

Perhaps the Undead Blood Authority he fused in the Wasteland of Strife wasn’t compatible in this place, making materializing Tomb Territory buildings in this new world far beyond Fang Zhou’s expectations in difficulty.

After several attempts, Fang Zhou could only reluctantly declare a temporary abandonment.

Though the existence of the Undead Blood Moon authority allowed him to be accepted by this new world smoothly, preventing him from being treated as an illegal immigrant and heavily discriminated against.

He still seemed powerless to fully materialize Tomb buildings.

All Fang Zhou could do now was spend colossal amounts of Soul Power to selectively summon his Tomb Undead subordinates.

Moreover, before establishing a tight link with this world’s Undead Blood Moon, Fang Zhou’s summoning of subordinates isn’t permanent summoning.

It requires continuous consumption of Soul Power and Undead Essence to maintain the Tomb Undead’s existence.

Remembering his experience, Fang Zhou recalled encountering a similar situation when he first transmitted from the Corpse Hill to the Wasteland of Strife.

However, since he soon led his subordinates to kill a solitary Zombie Lord, absorbing its Undead Blood Moon authority and gaining recognition from the Wasteland of Strife’s Undead Blood Moon Will, acknowledging his identity as a native.

Only then did he break the world’s limit, successfully materializing Tomb Territory buildings.

He thought that although his current location felt eerie, it shouldn’t differ much.

After staying in this cave for a while, Uriel finally shook his head, recovering from teleportation dizziness.

Once awakened, he immediately activated his defense skills, and then began to nervously scrutinize the surroundings.

Uriel frowned, noticing that this was only a cave.

However, it wasn’t completely relaxed either, watching Fang Zhou not far away, asking, "Where is this?"

Fang Zhou emerged from shallow cultivation, shook his head, and said, "I don’t know either, I only know this place’s Death Energy concentration far exceeds that of the City of Strife.

Alright, Uriel, our current priority should be quickly determining where we are.

And find ways to enhance our power, isn’t it?"

Uriel sighed and said, "Lord, you’re right."

One man and one dragon stepped out of the cave, walking upon this wasteland.

From time to time, they could still see scorched land and some craters from explosions, frowning as they tried to understand this world’s conditions.
