Lin Yun was not needed in the battle on the front line, either. After all, the situation on the front line was already stable. Although the space was stable enough to accommodate level-8 Heaven Rank experts, very few people above level 5 of the Heaven Rank were there.
No strong undead creatures had joined the war yet, so Noscent’s troops naturally held back too. They didn’t send their experts to stimulate the undead creatures. After all, the situation was in favor of Noscent’s troops.
There was nothing Lin Yun needed to do. He intended to return to his Natural Demiplane to understand laws, but he thought for a mont, and found Pro.
Having followed Pro for a couple of days, Lin Yun was further reassured that the guy was a saint. When Uther’s soul was split up, it wasn’t cut into two parts from the middle; its kindhearted part and its evil part beca independent.
The evil part turned into the Bloody Lich. The brainless undead creatures in the Plane of the Undead were all scared of his ferocity and wickedness.
The other part turned into Pro. In all his life, Pro had never done anything that was worth criticizing. His only shortcoming was that he was too caring and benevolent.
All of a Paladin’s virtues were apt descriptions of Pro...
Ever since the channel beca able to accommodate level-8 Heaven Rank power, Pro had been staying on the front line in case of accidents. He traveled back and forth, treating those who had been wounded and corrupted by the power of death...
To put it simply, he had been doing the deaning and exhausting tasks. The Holy Light Alliance had been infamous. It had left everybody with the impression that it was a group of rabid dogs.
Because of the Holy Light Alliance, even the holy light mages’ reputation was tarnished. They were considered a synonym to rabid dogs in a lot of places. Many new-generation mages, who were intimate with holy light, and could beco promising holy light mages, eventually ended up as normal elental mages.
The Holy Light Alliance ruined the reputation of all the holy light mages.
Despite that, ever since the purge within the Holy Light Alliance, and after Pro was set free and beca the leader of the Holy Light Alliance, its reputation had been recovering at an astonishing speed.
It would take years to build a good reputation, but it would only take days to ruin it. After the reputation was ruined, it would require a trendous amount of effort to restore, if it would be possible at all.
In spite of that, Pro was able to restore the Holy Light Alliance’s reputation quickly. Even those who cursed the Holy Light Alliance for being a group of rabid dogs also respected Pro. So even felt sorry for Pro, thinking that the Holy Light Alliance was only holding Pro back.
Pro had set himself as an example. The mbers of the Holy Light Alliance didn’t dare to challenge the new rules. After those who violated the rules were punished, the Holy Light Alliance completely changed. They were an indispensable part of the war effort at this mont.
The greatest danger in fighting undead creatures was not to be killed, but to be corrupted by the power of death. However, everybody in the war was corrupted by the power of death—to different degrees.
Too many potions would’ve been required to solve the problem. The best solution was still holy light mages. They could address the problem perfectly with holy light. Even if soone was deeply corrupted by the power of death, they could still bring the patient back to life as long as the latter hadn’t really transford into an undead creature.
A lot of soldiers were participating in the war. At least 20 waves of people went to the front line, where the power of death was exuberant, every day. Corruption of the power of death was inevitable. When hundreds of soldiers returned from the front line, a holy light mage could just cast a level-5 spell to heal all of them, and then they would all go back to take a rest. If any of them was injured, a group healing spell could help...
If the soldiers were lucky enough to et Pro, as long as they weren’t completely dead or turned into undead creatures yet, Pro could heal them even if all their limbs had been cut off, or if they turned into half undead creatures.
That was the reason why Pro was so respected. While mages were the main force on the front line, alchemy puppets and swordsn were important in charging forward, and it was easy for them to be mutilated during the advance.
It was impossible to find their limbs if the latter were cut off. The undead creatures which would be crazy upon seeing blood would surely tear apart the limbs. If they encountered zombies or ghouls, their limbs would surely be swallowed.
Even if they were lucky enough to pick up the remains of their limbs, it would be impossible to use them. Without their protection, the limbs would soon be corrupted and turned into bones by the power of death.
In Noscent, Limb Regeneration was at least a level-8 spell. It wasn’t easy to find a holy light mage of such a level. Also, there were few mages who didn’t belong to the Holy Light Alliance, which had a bad reputation.
Most people who had a severed arm or leg didn’t have the opportunity to ask a level-9 Archmage to cast Limb Regeneration on them. The Holy Light Alliance charged such a high price that even level-9 Sword Saints might not be able to afford it.
As for the level-8 Limb Regeneration itself, it would co with a long period of exhaustion even if it healed the patient. The stronger the patient was, the longer it would take for them to get accustod to the new limb. If they were careless for one mont, their new limb might be wasted.
The best way was the level-9 extraordinary spell, which was the perfect version of Limb Regeneration. Unfortunately, most people didn’t have the opportunity to enjoy it. The Heaven Rank holy light mages would never easily waste a lot of mana on casting this spell for soone else...
However, up until this mont, none of the soldiers on the battlefield were crippled except those who were dead. Pro healed all of them. That was right. Pro did it alone.
Pro had done a favor to thousands of soldiers. What he had done was truly crazy. He couldn’t have afforded the cost if he hadn’t been a level-8 Heaven Rank holy light. Ever since he had been set free, his strength had been increasing. He was not far away from level 9 of the Heaven Rank.
A level-9 Heaven Rank holy light mage, would be an army of its own in the war against the undead. If Pro were really promoted to level 9 of the Heaven Rank, then it wouldn’t be so hard to fight the war at all. Pro would be able to purge all the undead creatures within the radius of thousands of kiloters, including the undead overlords, within a day!
Unfortunately, Pro hadn’t reached level 9 of the Heaven Rank yet. His understanding of holy light was not perfect. To bombard the enemies with holy light was too exhausting for him. He shouldn’t use it until the critical mont.
There was no problem at all. Everything was going on very well. If nothing surprising happened, all they needed to do was wait.
Even though there was no problem, Lin Yun was still ill at ease. The Bloody Lich was wicked and brutal, but he was definitely very smart even among the top mages. He had surely made preparations for his demise.
Considering the Bloody Lich’s personality, he couldn’t have believed that nobody could destroy him just because his soul was integrated with the King of Nightmares’. Even if he had to die, he would surely make a plan of revenge in advance.
If he had to die, he would make sure that his enemy went to hell with him. The Bloody Lich was exactly that kind of person. He was most famous for his pettiness. In history, he retaliated against the guy who destroyed his body for thousands of years. No normal people would ever do that.
However, it had been so many days, and no accidents occurred. Lin Yun started to think that he was overthinking. It was possible that the Bloody Lich had never thought his life was at risk before he died...
Ti went by bit by bit. Everything was going on very well. The war might co to an end earlier than expected. If nothing surprising happened, the war would be over three years after it started.
Lin Yun basically didn’t have to do anything. He only needed to dress up as an undead creature, and went to Emir’s place to receive the essence of the undead that Emir collected. Although there was also a trendous amount of essence of the undead on Noscent’s side, other mages needed it too, and Lin Yun couldn’t purchase all of it. Also, its quantity was not as huge as what Emir picked up. Lin Yun only considered it as a secondary source.
After receiving essence of the undead a few tis, Lin Yun found that a spot for level-9 spells on the Sage Chapter was about to manifest. He speculated that he would have a spot for an ultimate level-9 spell very soon. He was already considering which spell he should copy to the spot.
Considering the circumstances, after the spot for the ultimate level-9 spell appeared, he wouldn’t be able to release another ultimate level-9 spell for a long ti after he cast it, as it required too much essence of the undead. He calculated and realized that it would take years for him to get prepared to release an ultimate level-9 spell. Also, he had to spend all those years in such massive wars where an astronomical number of undead creatures died every day.. That was the only way he could gather enough essence of the undead for the casting of the spell.
