Upon reaching level three, Jiang Hui’s physical form underwent another change, growing to a terrifying height of three hundred meters and a breadth that could be encircled by several tens of people.

Specifically, the boundless vitality that erupted like a vast ocean caused his previously bare branches to sprout lush willow leaves anew.

Looking from afar, his massive crown obscured the sky. Thick vines, like horned dragons, hung in the air, cascading down like green waterfalls. Unnamed wildflowers decorated the area around him, an exotic fragrance permeating the air, refreshing the heart, and delighting the mind.

This sudden transformation was both dramatic and shocking.

Fortunately, Jiang Hui’s anomaly didn’t stand out within these vast, sea-like mountains. There were other trees even more conspicuous than him in the vicinity, and in no small number.

Those enormous trees, lush and towering into the heavens, showed no signs of the past winter. Some were even flowering and bearing fruit. In the world he once knew, these would be valuable treasures hard to obtain, provoking feverish pursuit from countless rich men once listed on the market. However, in this deep forest, they were as common as could be.

Apart from his physical changes, his Five Senses ability enhanced once again, transitioning from a radius of three thousand meters at level two to thirty thousand meters – equivalent to an area of sixty li.

Within this range, no movement of grass or wind could evade his gaze.

Upon completion of the upgrade, a single draw was conferred as usual.

Jiang Hui naturally made use of it immediately. This was always his favorite part of leveling up.

“Draw completed, congratulations on obtaining Divine Skill – Necromancy (Can be enhanced with level).

“Necromancy: After using a certain amount of spiritual power, you can control the corpses buried within thirty li. The strength of the corpses directly affects the consumption of spiritual power. Once the spiritual power is exhausted, those forever lost souls will be reburied in the vast Wilderness…”

“Bones like sand and sand like snow, the general rests on the platform overlooking home. They will defend everything to the death, even if their dead bodies don’t remain!”

The introduction of Necromancy was several lines longer than his previous two draws, offering more details. Clearly, this draw was of high quality.

“Finally, I’ve got an active attack ability.”

Jiang Hui scanned the information on Necromancy rapidly, unable to hide his excitement.

Putting aside its effects for now, this was, at least, his first ability that enabled active attack and an ability that was sufficient to defend himself with.

Calm in spirit, Jiang Hui decided to test the power of this ability.

This ability was strong, but it also wasn’t strong.

The literal meaning was easy to understand. Everything was dictated by the number of corpses buried within thirty li and what kind of corpses they were. If only a few “shrimp soldiers and crab generals” were buried around, this ability would undoubtedly be amongst the most useless.

Fortunately, like the Five Senses, this ability improves with level. It has growth potential, and even the worst situation could be turned around.

…

The casting of the secret technique wasn’t troublesome, it simply required Jiang Hui to say the word “Necromancy” in his heart.

Simple and useful.

As the word “Necromancy” fell, the originally calm ground began to shake.

Thump, thump, thump…

Thump, thump, thump…

Like a heart beating in a regular rhythm, or a stone falling into a placid lake…

In the void.

A deafening roar echoes through…

The next moment.

About a hundred meters from Jiang Hui, the earth splits open. Dust rises, a storm of sound…

Following that.

From the depths of the dark underground, two immense skeletons are slowly crawling out…

These are two giant python skeletons, over a hundred meters long, their bones black as ink, collisions amid their movements echoing like steel, disseminating a terrifying aura even as they have been reduced to stark white bones, asserting their formidable might in life.

Looking at the two skeleton pythons that appeared before his eyes, Jiang Hui was stunned for a long while before regaining his senses.

He had originally thought that Little Black’s size was already considerable, but he didn’t expect these two to be even bigger. If they were to stand upright, they’d be equivalent to a thirty-story building. Even a truck next to them would seem like a toy in comparison.

Having such a terrifying existence buried near him was indeed a thrilling yet somewhat surprising realisation for Jiang Hui.

And the very moment these two skeleton pythons appeared, his spiritual power visibly plummeted.

At this rate, Jiang Hui could only control them for a maximum of three minutes, indicating just how horrifyingly powerful these two skeleton pythons were.

Besides these two giant snake corpses, the remaining ones were merely ordinary bird and beast bones, which, under the sedimentation of time, had already become decayed and fragile, the kind that would scatter with a gust of wind. Even an ordinary person could easily deal with them. They were of no real use.

Although there were quite a few such skeletons, they were useless to Jiang Hui, only serving to increase his consumption of spiritual power. Therefore, he decided to withdraw his control over them.

“These two skeleton pythons… why… do they look familiar?”

Jiang Hui’s eyes burned, staring at the two giant creatures in front of him. However, after observing them for a while, he found these two skeleton pythons seemed strangely familiar, as if he had seen them somewhere before.

They seem… somewhat… similar to… Little Black.

Jiang Hui suddenly remembered.

Even though these two skeleton pythons had long lost their flesh and blood, his Five Senses were so powerful that even minor details would be magnified in his vision.

The characteristics of these two skeleton pythons were extremely similar to Little Black’s, one bigger, one smaller, especially the raised hard bone layer on their backs, covering them completely from head to tail, something he had never seen on other snakes.

“Could it be, are these Little Black’s parents or adult counterparts?” Jiang Hui wondered with shock.

But if these two skeleton pythons truly are Little Black’s parents or Nether King pythons in adulthood, then how did they become like this, buried under the vast black soil?

Did they die of natural causes?

Jiang Hui was uncertain, and prepared for his spiritual power to be completely exhausted. He scanned the two skeleton pythons thoroughly from top to bottom again.

Eventually.

This time at the “seven inches” point, he saw something unusual.

The snake bones at the “seven inches” point of the two skeleton pythons had a black hole as tiny as a strand of hair.

The black hole pierced their tough backbones at the “seven inches” point, piercing through their entire bodies. Even under the passage of long time, it still shimmered with a cold light in the flickering faint light.

Without a doubt, this tiny golden point was very likely the cause that led to the death of these two skeleton pythons.

However, given the size of these two skeleton pythons, they would have been unquestionably the lords of the natural world in their previous existence, yet who could have killed them?

Jiang Hui contemplated, feeling an unprecedented sense of crisis for an unexplainable reason.
