The six-winged lion roared as he stood in his new form, majestic, tall, proud, and as an undead.
The pitiful lion did not know if he wanted to be happy or sad to be a part of this new army, but when wyverns and dragons had submitted, how could he not submit to the new master?
It became happy after a moment of confusion and swiftly stood next to the wyverns and dragons as if he was also a draconian beast.
Watching this, all the other soul minions, at least the ones who were aware of what just happened, gaped in shock. This was the fastest Liam had forged! Luna also looked proudly at her master.
The only issue was that Liam did not look quite as pleased. His reddened eyes glared in anger as he punched the rock next to him.
This was not enough. This only barely made a dent in his soul.
"Move!" He shouted, and everyone immediately started the next hunt. After the six-winged lion, it was the Level 95 striped white tiger"s turn.
This beast as well was mercilessly bombarded with all sorts of attacks, and its soul was forged the next minute. Roar? The tiger pitifully looked at the lion, who had once been its mortal enemy but now was a fellow soldier. What was happening?
More importantly, why was their new Master psychotic?
Liam was filled with rage as, once again, this formidable opponent only managed to make a dent in his soul. With these small dents, when was he going to increase his soul strength again?
He needed more. A bigger foe. A much stronger foe that required him to put his life on the line. Something that was as powerful or at least comparable to the dragon souls he had forged.
Liam"s gaze then widened as he remembered the other dragon souls that were in his possession. He then threw his head back and started laughing maniacally. That was right. He had the answer right in his hand, and yet he was searching around everywhere.
Earlier, he was afraid he couldn"t handle the opening of the seals, but now he had to give this a try. There was simply no other choice.
And he had enough materials to unlock just one other seal, the soul seal. He had already stored all the souls he needed in the black bead from the beast horde a.s.sault. Now all that was needed was for him to feed these souls to the sword.
He unsheathed the black dragon sword and stared at it, feeling the wrath of the countless dragon souls contained within it. He had somehow handled two dragon souls, but now would he be able to hold out against these countless dragon souls?
Liam took a deep breath and immediately ordered Luna to make a move. Right now, he was short on time. Once a decision was made, he had to stick to it. The faster that countdown approached, the more risks he had to take.
And right now, he was probably going to take the biggest risk of his life.
For that, he needed another dungeon. He was willing to take risks, but he was not an idiot. If he attempted this without a dungeon, he would definitely get screwed six ways from Sunday.
"Luna, go to the Rock Temple dungeon." He ordered the fox, and the rest of the posse followed him. The Rock Temple dungeon was only a little distance south of where they were currently and also the closest dungeon to them at the moment.
The only drawback was that this dungeon was only a Level 50 dungeon. However, it had to suffice.
He did not have knowledge about any other high-level dungeons in this area, and his knowledge about high-level dungeons was not all that much, to begin with. There was no point in wasting time right now searching for one.
Luna arrived at the Rock Temple dungeon in a jiffy, and the group cleared out the dungeon in less than a minute. The mobs and the bosses inside did not even know why they died when they dropped down onto the cold hard ground.
The soul minion army then cleared out and started farming experience points outside once again, this time the two dragons also joining them.
"Ok. Here goes nothing." Liam took out the stone tablet one more time, and the world around him changed. He was once again back in the barren land with the essence puddles. This time an earthen essence puddle started forming.
Liam, however, did not pay any attention to it as he walked forward and sat back down into the soul essence puddle, which still looked quite healthy. Either the souls did not deteriorate in this s.p.a.ce, or they were degrading at an extremely slow pace.
Whatever it was, it was something for him to figure out in the future, if at all. For right now, he took out the sword without wasting any time.
He immediately took out the black bead he had prepared, the one full of the numerous beast souls and started feeding the souls to the sword.
Immediately, tremendous pressure fell on his body, gripping him from top to bottom. Both sides were attacking him, the ones he was using as cannon fodder and the ones on the receiving end.
Though the beast souls weren"t as strong as the dragon souls, they still had an effect on him en ma.s.se. The black dragon souls present inside the sword were also no better. They were bound to the sword, and yet they were powerful enough to torment him.
A ripple of mind-numbing pain spread across his body, and Liam grinned. He welcomed this pain. "More! More! Give me more!" He laughed, challenging the monstrously strong souls. The sword trembled as it unleashed more pain and agony on him.
Liam s.h.i.+vered, but he bit down and held on to his sanity. He probably would fare better if he fed the souls one after the other and slowly and gradually progressed, but there was no time for it. This was the time for insanity.
