Chapter 545: Chapter 372 Peeling the Door
Niu Ben knew this was Su Han giving him the opportunity to face Fourth Order power up close and to feel its might. Right away, he summoned his three angel envoys and utilized his talent to its fullest.
Flames congregated between his hands, radiating searing heat, evidently a talent similar to spiritual flame.
His three angel envoys consisted of a giant corpse centaur, a skeleton general, and lastly, a double-headed bone griffin.
At this moment, all three envoys were brimming with spiritual energy. Although they had not reached the Fourth Grade, the storage of energy was already overflowing.
“Kill!”
Without any unnecessary words, Niu Ben, after being embodied by the Black Armor Breeding Armor, charged towards the Corpse King alongside his three envoys.
...
“Damned ants!”
The Corpse King, by no means unaware that he was being treated like a plaything for the weaker Third Order humans to trial against.
Rage spread like wildfire, spiritual energy gathering in its decaying large hand, its pitch-black nails incredibly sharp, striking directly at Niu Ben.
Niu Ben received reinforcements, but the Corpse King had not been weakened significantly, its wounds mostly left by earlier vines.
Although injured, they were not enough to be fatal.
As the two collided, Niu Ben was violently knocked back, overpowered in strength.
Fortunately, the three envoys immediately assisted, gradually pulling the situation back somewhat.
“Keep an eye on him, whether he can break through depends on himself.”
Su Han instructed, the vines under the Blood Sea Ancestral Tree’s watch could ensure Niu Ben wouldn’t die, but whether he could break through depended on him.
He soared into the air, landing on top of a high-rise building, his gaze sweeping over the entire city.
At this time, the vines controlled by the Blood Sea Ancestral Tree had gradually spread through the streets and alleys of Chu Yuan City, like writhing snakes climbing between the high-rises, seizing much of the advantageous terrain.
The Radiance of the Lamp Tree scattered the fog shrouding the whole city, exposing it entirely to Su Han’s view.
Three massive rifts in different dimensions continuously emitted energy, as masses of the Undead Race poured out, and under the leadership of Third Order and Fourth Order undead, they tangled with the vines.
Ancestral Tree vines struck down undead after undead, and at this point, the Ice Ghost King had also entered Chu Yuan City, beginning to fuse the undead together, frost freezing the streets.
Thousands of lower-grade undead were continuously assimilated, and the Foolish Dead God’s Power fusion progress climbed steadily.
30%, 30.4%…
The progress slowly increased, and the area of the city eroded by the vines expanded even further.
Su Han controlled everything, his eyes suddenly shifted: Are there still many living people?
“Quick, run!”
Over a dozen pale-faced, emaciated individuals were rapidly fleeing from a subway tunnel, their expressions panicked, angel envoys by their side warding off the Undead Race’s assault.
The vines swiftly passed in front of them, and although they did not harm them, they were past the point of caring.
The flood of Undead Race members had left them barely able to cope, forcing them to flee.
The man leading the group, with a swing of his blade, cleaved through claw-bearing skeletons blocking the way, his heart racing: ‘What is going on, where did these vines come from?’
“Zhou Changjun, look over here!”
Suddenly a woman’s voice called out, and Zhou Changjun looked to see that at the end of the alleyway, vines had somehow separated the undead to both sides, creating a pathway.
“Is this for us to escape?”
Zhou Changjun was astonished and doubtful when Su Han’s psychokinetic power already transmitted a message: “I’m from the Armed Forces, follow the vines now.”
As soon as they heard the name of the Armed Forces, Zhou Changjun and the others were shocked and immediately shouted affirmatively, “Okay!”
The small team quickly fled, with the pursuing Undead Race becoming slaves bound by the vines, and the entire street was soon overwhelmed by countless vines.

“Didn’t think there would still be so many people alive.”
Su Han suddenly smiled. After rescuing Zhou Changjun and his group, he found that from various corners, basements, or warehouses, small groups clashed with the rampaging Undead Race, thereby revealing their tracks.
They might not have had large-scale evacuations like other cities, nor the ability to flee from an Undead Race infested city.
But survival amidst an Undead Race siege was no easy feat.
Su Han’s thoughts stirred, and the Blood Sea Ancestral Tree’s vines began to synchronize, his psychokinetic power reaching every survivor’s ears.
“All survivors listen, follow the direction of the vines to the outskirts of the city, I’ll give you half an hour.”
The voice was sudden and as calm as it was indifferent, but as the citywide vines began to sweep away the Undead Race, creating roads on the streets, the voice became a savior’s gospel.
One team after another began to desperately flee, carrying their companions, quickly leaving the central area of Chu Yuan City towards the periphery.
As time ticked by, Niu Ben never disappointed Su Han; gambling with his newly reformed insect limb arms, he finally defeated the Corpse King.
Severely wounded but victorious, Niu Ben couldn’t help but burst into laughter as spiritual energy rapidly converged within his body.
Teetering on the edge of reaching Third Grade Superior, he had finally crossed the threshold, stepping into the Fourth Rank Lower Class.
Spiritual energy grew swiftly, without any hesitation, Niu Ben contracted with the defeated Corpse King.
“Niu Ben”
Just after his breakthrough, Niu Ben heard Su Han’s spiritual thoughts message, his form stirred with excitement: “Present!”
“There are survivors in Chu Yuan City, your team follow the vines’ guide and assist with the evacuation.”
