My military branches can Evolve Infinitely

Upon hearing this, Duo Lai suddenly nodded, realizing the truth. "That's exactly right, Boss."

"But with elemental control force and affinity difficult to significantly improve in the short term, let's shift our strategy. We won't vie for control—we'll simply devour the power of heaven and earth."

With that, they were back on Duo Lai's familiar track.

In doing so, it only needed to use all the great force of the Legendary Realm in perception and guidance, leaving everything else to the devouring.

Mu Yuan named this move 'Whale Swallow.'

After all, this move was based on 'Devouring' and 'Spatial Devour,' both of which Duo Lai had essentially mastered.

But 'Whale Swallow' alone wasn't enough. Duo Lai also needed to convert the devoured power of heaven and earth into energy it could command as easily as moving an arm.

So, taking 'Overlimit Swallowing' strategic skills as a reference and incorporating the epic architecture 'Staff of Divine Right · Nine-turn Furnace,' Mu Yuan came up with the concept of using the 'Body Furnace.'

Combining the two, Duo Lai could not only strip enemies of their control over the power of heaven and earth but could also harness the vast, ineffable energy itself.

Moreover, it could bypass processes like 'gathering the power of heaven and earth' and 'accumulating power,' enabling instant activation of powerful moves without any cooldowns, among other techniques.

It was indescribably ingenious!

At present, the 'Body Furnace' was just a concept.

After all, Mu Yuan wasn't Emperor Dead Bone, and his expectations for Duo Lai weren't overly high—a mere three months for research and development would suffice.

"Three months? Why would it take three months!"

Duo Lai wanted to say three days would be enough, but its remaining rationality reminded it that three days were indeed insufficient.

So then...

"Let's go with two months and twenty-nine days!"

This way, it would also be able to complete the tasks set by the Lord ahead of schedule and showcase the heaven-defying comprehension ability of Duo Lai.

Thinking of this, Duo Lai began to devour with even greater effort.

In the distance, the Elite Undead were also forced to put forth more effort, resonating with military spirits to resist Duo Lai's influence.

With a simulation target to disrupt legendary enemies, Duo Lai's training efficiency went up by +1+1+1. freewebnσvel.cѳm

Facing a formidable enemy that could impact the Army Spirit, the Elite Undead also squeezed out 200% of their training speed.

This was double the training, quadruple the joy.

Lord Shepherd watched on, feeling deeply gratified.

Half an hour later,

"The time has come."

"Once we integrate the last warrior and maintain the stability of the Army Spirit, the embryo of the Undead Legion's Army Souls will be truly complete."

The Undead ceased their endeavors, and a leader turned to look to the side.

There, stood hundreds of expectant Undead. They were all elites, each had awakened their self-awareness, and on normal days, they too would train with the main force.

These Undead were all exceedingly capable, but today, only one among them would obtain an official position.

The person was naturally pre-selected.

Many Undead were full of envy as they looked at the newcomer nearby.

"Damn it, they've got me feeling sour like a lemon!"

"I want to join the Legion too and wreak havoc in the legends with the Boss!"

"Fair's fair, why him? I came here first!"

"Go, Bone 996! Carry the hopes and will of your brothers into battle!!"

Some Undead waved their handkerchiefs, their black mist turning into scalding hot tears.

This was probably the downside of having a fully self-aware bunch—they were all too good at dramatizing things.

Bone 996 stepped forward boldly and melded into the embrace of the great Undead Legion. The next moment, Dead Bone took over command, reorganized the formation, and raised 'Wailing Death' high, resonating with the Army Spirit.

Hum——

Hum——

Hum——

The phantom of a giant sword planted upside down on a mound appeared above the troops. When it first appeared, the entire embryonic silhouette was highly unstable due to the new soldier's integration, making the vast machinery of the Army Soul Corps run roughly, with hitches and stalls.

In such a delicate situation, any minor mistake could dissipate the formation, signifying a failure to enhance or break through the embryonic stage of the Army Spirit.

But Dead Bone and the Elite Undead were fully prepared.

The embryonic shadow rippled violently with the water's surface, and after a dozen seconds, it began to stabilize, becoming solid and real at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Black mist surged from all directions around the Undead Legion, springing from seemingly nowhere, endless and boundless.

The undead energy and dark elemental particles between heaven and earth also swarmed and converged.

Gather! Gather! Gather!

A black storm rose, and a black tide enveloped everything.

The sky turned completely dark, and every inch of the Secret Realm was filled with inescapable wailing winds.

Amidst the howling wind, a notification sound rang in Mu Yuan's ears as expected.

"Notification: Your Undead Legion has broken its bounds, the Army Soul Embryo has condensed to completion, and will awaken and derive an Army Spirit ability in line with the Legion."

Above the legion, the small mound, in the blink of an eye, transformed into a mountain as majestic and towering as Wraith Sacred Mountain.

That great sword, like a pillar reaching to the heavens, the black mist faintly gathered into a human shape; its stature was colossal, its face blurred but crowned, and with both hands, it drew the great sword.

Clang—

"Notification: Complete Army Spirit of the Undead, awakening Legion Trait 'Immortal Bone'."

"Notification: Complete Army Spirit of the Undead, awakening Legion Skill 'Tide of Wasted Bones'."

"Notification: Complete Army Spirit of the Undead, awakening Legion Final Skill 'Emperor's One Sword'."

When a Complete Level Army Spirit condensed, it usually derived one trait and one legion skill.

A trait was essentially an extra talent given to the elite warriors during battle.

"Immortal Bone: The strength of the holder's bones increases, allowing them to withstand more energy scouring. Also, in the face of a fatal attack, as long as their bones remain, they will not die and can recover quickly."

This talent was quite powerful.

With Army Soul Resonance, the soldiers could share life and distribute damage; ordinarily, there was no risk of dying in battle, but... he had heard that at high-end combat levels, some powerful beings wielded Great Force that could penetrate the protection of Army Spirit, breaking through the Army Soul Corps one by one.

Immortal Bone could play a big role in the later stages; even now, just the 'recovery ability' on its own was invaluable.

Army Soul Resonance and the sharing of damage meant the overall state of the soldiers during battle would inevitably decline gradually.

But Immortal Bone provided extraordinary recovery capabilities.

This also extended the duration of Army Soul Resonance to some extent. This trait had many extended effects.

It's just...

"You need to have a skeleton."

"The traits and legion skills awakened by the Undead Legion are biased towards skeletons, which are not quite suitable for the elite of the Phantom Series."

Ghost Baby felt aggrieved.

This was not a big problem. The main commander of the whole legion, over 77% of the elites, were from the skeleton lineage. Now that the Army Spirit had broken through, they would phase out the Phantom Series slowly... his Tianyuan Territory was not lacking in elite skeletons after all.

Cough cough, of course, it did not mean that the elite Phantoms were being kicked out of the official ranks; Mu Yuan planned to form a corps with the Phantoms as the main force.

With experience in their creation, shaping the Army Soul Embryo would certainly be quite efficient.

A Complete Level Army Spirit was not the limit for the Army Soul Corps; it was just the beginning. In the future, the two large Corps might even grind out, a combination skill full of bonds.

"Army Spirit Final Skill: When the legion has sufficiently Charged, the soldiers can exhibit their final ripple through Overlimit Resonance. After the Final Skill is cast, the shadow of the Army Spirit will shatter, and for a certain period in the future, that legion will be unable to resonate an Army Spirit again."

"Emperor's One Sword: Disregarding space, shattering space, it bestows upon the enemy the ultimate sword of death. The target designated by the Emperor's One Sword will be unable to dodge or flee and will hardly muster the will to resist, only passively accepting the death granted by the Emperor."

This was a super move.

A strong combat-output Final Skill.

It's just that, the conditions for using the Army Spirit Final Skill, and the cost of using it, were quite harsh.

After studying for a while, Mu Yuan realized that the requirement of Charging would demand intense battle for half an hour to just barely accumulate enough. If there was no intense battle soon after Accumulating enough 'momentum', it would quickly dissipate.

If the Final Skill was cast in vain, and if it failed to kill the enemy, then the one to suffer would be oneself.

"Of course, the Emperor's One Sword unleashed under such harsh conditions is bound to be outrageously strong."

"It seems that not just any more refined and complete Army Spirit can awaken the Final Skill. Typically, a Complete Level Corps must continue to improve, enduring continuous blood and fire tempering, and constantly expand its scale before it might awaken it." -read-first

The Undead Legion skipped the intermediate steps.

These 'basic' pieces of information were already within Mu Yuan's hearing, but more detailed ones, such as 'techniques for accumulating momentum' and 'capabilities of other Army Spirit Final Skills,' were unknown to him.

This involved high-level intelligence, which he would even find difficult to find someone to ask.

Perhaps, these were the troubles of the accomplished.
