The Rise of the Black Plainchapter 1856: the poison that 'saved' the world

As Abby focused all her energy on merging her techniques, making the moves and seals necessary to succeed, she suddenly felt a blue glow in the darkness.

Opening her eyes, she saw a powerful spear breaking through Gloria and Isabella's defenses and heading for her chest.

At the same time, the ground around her cracked as dozens of long-dead creatures awakened.

Abby felt she had managed to merge her techniques, which was good. But when she saw the deadly attack closing in on her, she turned as pale as a sheet of paper, feeling that she had nothing to do in this situation.

As several people in her group looked on with concern, the ground beneath her feet cracked, and a skeletal, completely yellow hand emerged.

As Abby prepared to receive the blow that could kill even level 91 cultivators, the hand cut through the space and appeared in the spear's path, blocking it like a shield.

Sparks flew from the point of impact until a loud metallic sound rang out for a moment, and then the spear blade shattered into countless pieces!

"What?" The level 91 Eastern Empire Demigod who threw the spear shouted in surprise, not expecting the fusion of a level 82 woman to be strong enough to stop his weapon.

If that was the level of Abby's fusion, then this woman was even more dangerous than Minos!

But Abby's fusion was very different from what Minos could do. She could only temporarily resurrect those who had fallen near her.

If these people were experts, her ability would even bring back those with 'n' levels above hers. If they were just weak individuals, they would not become stronger by being awakened by her. If they were stronger than her, she would not be able to control them.

In other words, as incredible as it was, she had no control over what she could achieve, unlike Minos, who could manipulate his fusions as he wanted.

However, for that man, Abby's fusion was shockingly terrible for his group!

"Shit!" One of the elves saw this and cursed his group's luck, as well as their inefficiency in stopping Abby before anything else happened.

Abby saw the hand in front of her and sighed in relief. But when she noticed the cultivation level of this creature, she couldn't help but feel afraid of the being she had summoned!

'Level 94!' She and all of Minos' women in the area realized the level of this humanoid skeleton.

Not even Minos could control such a creature!

'Damn it! Who is this one?' Minos thought as he looked in the direction of his women, thinking about manipulating space and creating a black hole to destroy that creature.

But when both sides of the battlefield were tense with the appearance of such a skeletal being, the 2-meter tall skeleton finished rising from the ground and looked at Abby for a moment.

Seeing a golden-blue glow in the darkness of her eyes, he remembered his life and did not hesitate to kneel down at Abby's feet.

"Goddess of Life, I am happy to serve you even after my death!" He said aloud, feeling great reverence for the woman before him.

'Does he think I'm the Goddess of Life?' Abby wondered. 'Is he one of this woman's soldiers?'

"Unfortunately, I died at the hands of a dragon while on a mission at the Continent of Beasts, Goddess of Life. Before I died, I was taken to this space and never had a chance to return. Please let me serve you one last time!"

Abby's fusion and the Goddess of Life's innate ability were fantastic. Still, in addition to the points already mentioned, they had one crucial flaw. Once a being was summoned from death, once the fusion or ability was undone, that already dead creature could never be summoned again.

The skeleton knew this, and knowing he would never be able to help his goddess again, he stood up and immediately activated his unique ability.

Abby just nodded, but that was enough for the skeleton to act!

In an instant, it disappeared from Abby's side.

It appeared among the strongest Demigods of the enemy group, increasing its body size significantly. In contrast, several skeletal hands appeared from spatial holes on the area's outskirts.

Divine Palm!

He moved as his skeleton vibrated, becoming increasingly invisible, cracking as his many hands descended from various portals, from the ground, and from the sky, to fight Abby's enemies.

"Shit! Run!" The strongest elf shouted, feeling that if they were hit, all those targeted by this skeletal creature would be killed.

However, this ancient warrior didn't let these enemies run away casually. Knowing that he would disappear in less than 5 seconds, he accelerated the movement of his palms, shocking Minos' entire group and destroying 4 high-level enemies at once!

The level 91 Demigod who had attacked Abby with the previous spear felt desperate at the sight of two large skeleton palms pressing against his body, but he had no chance to do anything. The level 94 skeleton put more force into the blow against this individual who had endangered the life of the heiress of the Goddess of Life.

As punishment, he would be crushed to death!

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!"

This man and others tried to resist the mighty palms of the skeleton, but they were much stronger than them. In just 3 seconds, more than 50% of their bones were crushed, and their spirits were shattered.

At the last second of this skeletal creature in this world, the four enemies exploded, their blood spreading tens of meters away.

The skeleton also reached its end, cracking utterly, and then...

BOOOOOM!

Yellow dust and spiritual energy flew out from whatever that being was, shocking the elves there.

"Damn it, that woman can't be allowed to live! The damned will take over the world if she gets any stronger!" One of them shouted, feeling real fear.

Beings capable of reaching level 100 were rare. But in the history of the Spiritual World, hundreds of thousands of people reached level 99!

If Abby could awaken just a few of them and keep them conscious for days or even weeks, she and Minos would be able to rule the entire world!

As members of one of the oldest races, the one that knew the most about the history of this world, these elves were well aware of the threat this fusion posed to the world!

In the distant past, a human expert had developed such an ability and reached level 99. Fortunately, an elder of the elven tribe had noticed her before she attempted to reach level 100 and managed to poison her secretly.

The Goddess of Life herself did not know what was behind her failure to reach level 100. But the elves knew that without the act of one of their high-ranking elders, she would have become a true God, capable of awakening even dead Gods!

After seeing the danger looming before their tribe again, these elves could not help but feel threatened by Abby and wished for her death.
