Chapter 290: Chapter 288: Separated by Life and Death
[Killed a Tier Eight Demon, gained 996 points of Magic Energy.]
...
The notification of the kill echoed in Lin You’s mind.
After over an hour of roaming and luring creatures, the last batch of Undead Monsters finally fell under the attacks of the plants.
The remaining three Devouring Flowers also successfully replicated the Corrosive Arrow Rain skill.
"Alright, let’s recover first."
Lin You glanced through the fence at the two giant shadows outside the church gate, then had the plants begin recovering on the spot.
This ti, due to the strategy of defeating the enemy one by one, the species loss was minimal, and the consumption was not great.
A simple rest to recover to full strength.
Lin You led the Plant Army through the fence, slowly entering the courtyard.
The death aura inside the courtyard was significantly denser than outside.
Visibility was reduced to almost within a hundred ters, with a grayish haze everywhere.
Walking inside, there was even a feeling of walking in the Underworld.
Even if a scythe-wielding Death God or Ox-headed and Horse-faced suddenly appeared, Lin You wouldn’t find it strange or be surprised.
However.
This thought changed when he clearly saw the two giant shadows.

[Introduction: Originally the hall priest of the church, mutated into a mindless Undead monster due to infection by death aura from unknown reasons, continuing to linger outside the church following its will from life.]
Good heavens.
It truly is a Death God.
A butcher covered in sores, shouldering a hook and scythe.
And an Undead Mage brandishing a Magic Staff, shrouded in thick death aura.
This is undoubtedly a soul-reaping duo, isn’t it a Death God?
And strangely, these two Leader Demons have one more skill than other leaders, and it’s exactly the sa skill!
There’s sothing fishy...
Lin You’s expression grew serious as he scanned the surroundings.
The entire church building was relatively intact, with only the main gate as the entrance.
Without knowing what’s inside, it’s better to deal with these two gatekeeping monsters first to prevent any mishaps.
With this in mind, he led the Plant Legion, using the flower bed as cover, cautiously moving closer.
When they reached about fifty ters away, the Big Cannon in the team also aid at the Hall Priest wandering on the steps.
Attacking the backline first in a team battle is common sense.
However, this ti Lin You was much more astute.
As the Big Cannon fired, he had Lantern Grass activate the Vacuum Skill, enveloping the Big Cannon in a vacuum environnt to muffle the sound.
The next second.
Sparks erupted.
The Dragon Fla-encircled Pea Bullet shot out rapidly, transforming into a fiery red streak that dashed toward the Hall Priest.
"Bang!"
Flesh and blood splattered.
The unguarded Hall Priest was instantly pierced through the head by the attack.
The entire massive body was sent flying by the powerful impact, crashing into and collapsing a large section of the wall.
However, to Lin You’s surprise, he did not hear a kill notification in his mind.
Instead, the Corrupt Butcher discovered them, let out a furious roar, and leaped into the air, delivering a Mount Tai Pressing Down attack directly at them.
"Boom!"
The ground shook fiercely.
With just one hit, five frontmost Multiplication Species were smashed to death, even creating a massive crater in the flower bed.
Fortunately, Lin You reacted quickly, swiftly spreading the plants apart to surround the landing Corrupt Butcher.
"Attack!"
With the command, the plants took action, and a barrage of ranged attacks fell into the crater, triggering a series of violent explosions, sending stones flying everywhere in the flower bed.
"Roar!"
Unexpectedly, the Corrupt Butcher in the explosion center erupted again.
With a fierce flick of the hook and rope in its hand, it locked onto an Ancient Tree entity in front and forcefully dragged it toward the crater.
Then its massive maw opened wide, directly using its Biting Skill.
"Use Defense Skills quickly!"
Lin You shouted urgently.
The loss of ordinary Multiplication Species was acceptable.
But losing a Multiplication Entity and Symbiotic Moss was a huge loss for him.
Without hesitation, he had the Symbiotic Moss activate the Secret Treasure Skill, converting all attributes into Constitution.
Clang!
The sound of a piercing gnash echoed around.
The Corrupt Butcher’s bloody maw bit into the Ancient Tree wrapped in crouching moss, as if it had bitten into a steel plate.
It only sank in an inch and could not penetrate any further.
Taking advantage of this mont, the Banshee Vine squad at the rear quickly wrapped their vines around the Corrupt Butcher, rescuing the Ancient Tree from the deep pit.
Then, a large number of ranged attacks landed, exploding amidst loud blasts on the Butcher.
The vines of the Banshee Vine promptly retreated amidst the explosions, avoiding the residual force of the attacks.
"%&@...#*&￥..."
At this very mont, a complex spell suddenly resounded, originating from the recently collapsed wall.
The Temple Priest, with only half a head remaining, astonishingly appeared once again, raising the Magic Staff in its hand.
A thin thread, almost invisible, appeared between it and the Corrupt Butcher, quickly healing the wounds of both.
Life Sharing!?
Lin You was startled internally, finally understanding the aning behind the additional skill these two Leader Demons possessed.
It turned out to be an extrely rare Life Sharing skill.
Which ans.
The lives of these two leaders are shared!
Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why the damaged Temple Priest could stand up again.
And while he was in shock.
The Corrupt Butcher in the deep pit shook off the Plants’ attacks, roaring furiously as it charged out of the pit towards the forefront of the Ancient Tree Legion.
From afar, the Temple Priest, in coordination, chanted another spell and pointed towards the densest group of Plants, invoking a black hole with terrifying suction power, which instantly began pulling in everything around it.
Several Reproduction Species were caught off guard and were imdiately sucked into the black hole, shredded into pieces.
Truthfully.
These two Leader Demons are nothing much when taken individually.
But once combined, their strength surged, catching Lin You off guard.
Especially the intense Death Aura emanating from around the Temple Priest.
Once contaminated, his Plant Attribute drastically dropped by 20%, significantly weakening their montum.
Not daring to hesitate, he imdiately activated the Power of Rule, unleashing the Barbaric Roar, enveloping himself and all Plants in a flash of red light.
Do not underestimate his Barbaric Roar.
With the traits bestowed by the two Divine Fragnts, its power increased by 20%, which ans an All Attributes increase of 36%!
In an instant, the montum of the Plant Army rebounded, forcing the Corrupt Butcher into a retreat, relying only on Life Sharing to barely hold on.
Whoosh!
Lingxi’s Leaf Dance precisely slashed through the Butcher’s ankle, bringing it to its knees.
"Now! Attack with full force!"
Lin You’s eyes shone brightly as he imdiately joined the Plants in unleashing a barrage of Attack Skills without reserve.
As the highest attacker in the team, Lingxi raised their Magic Staff high at this mont, conjuring countless Wooden Thorns in the air.
Swish swish swish!!
The Wooden Thorns transford into streaks of light, shooting straight at the Butcher.
The Wooden Thorns, augnted by Barbaric Roar, possessed a terrifying power, as if capable of tearing the very air apart.
Yet, at this mont, sothing bizarre occurred!
The Temple Priest, who was supposed to be casting spells from afar, suddenly ceased chanting and teleported directly onto the Butcher.
"Pfft!!"
The sound of flesh being pierced echoed.
The Corrupt Butcher and the Temple Priest were instantly impaled, transford into a beehive, quieting the entire scene.
Even Lin You was montarily stunned in place.
Everything happened so abruptly.
It took quite a while for him to recover, staring in daze at the two intertwined corpses, filled with disbelief.
That last move, what exactly was it?
Was the Temple Priest trying to save the Butcher??
Or maybe.
In the final monts of life and death, did these two monsters briefly regain their consciousness from when they were alive?
Lin You felt a wave of discomfort.
If he had only speculated before.
He was now almost certain that people had indeed lived here.
And people like him, living humans!
Which reminded him of the events he encountered on the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms, where those deprived of fortune turned into Zombies.
Isn’t it the sa with these two monsters?
No!
Sothing seems wrong!
Lin You suddenly discarded his own guess.
Although it appeared similar to the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms, upon careful recollection, there were nurous subtle differences.
Yet to articulate, he couldn’t imdiately pinpoint what distinguished them.
His thoughts were then interrupted by two notifications.
[Killed a Tier Eight Leader Demon, earned 10,000 Magic Energy.]
[Killed a Tier Eight Leader Demon, earned 10,000 Magic Energy.]
Finally, they died...
Lin You took a deep breath, slowly approaching the corpses of the two monsters.
Even bloodied and torn, the water stains on their cheeks were still faintly visible, though it’s uncertain if it’s water or sothing else.
He stood silently for a long ti.
Before instructing the Plants to drag the two corpses into the newly created deep pit, burying them into a mound of earth.
He already knew before that the Devouring Flower was incapable of devouring skills above those of Leader Demons, only converting energy to gain experience.
Besides, even if it could devour, he had no intention to consu those corpses.
He wanted a mont of impetuous willfulness.
After all, in this world filled with slaughter.
He wasn’t sure how long he could remain true to himself.
"Alright, let’s rest for a bit."
Turning back, he softly instructed the Plants before taking Lingxi to explore the entrance of the cathedral.
Now that the two leaders guarding the entrance were dealt with, only the inside of the cathedral remained unexplored, filling his heart with curiosity and anticipation.
Since there were two leaders guarding it, the inside was evidently not ordinary.
Thus, he did not rashly barge in, peering carefully through the cracks created in the collision earlier.
