Chapter 787

Ji Chen hadn’t expected that the bait used by the Undead Lord was actually a rather high-ranking authority — the Storm Authority. Lost in the God War tens of thousands of years ago, it had long been forgotten by mortals, yet it fell into the hands of the Undead Lord.

It seemed that the Undead Lord had ulterior motives, secretly keeping this fact from the Dark Gods. Otherwise, given the cunning and malevolence of the Dark Gods, they would never place a complete Mid-tier authority in the hands of a being considered a servant like the Undead Lord.

What the Undead Lord wielded was merely a fragmented version of the Decay Authority, posing little threat to the gods.

However, all this was no longer important. With the Storm Authority included, Ji Chen now possessed three authority-like abilities!

Ranked nineteenth, the Storm Authority.

Ranked seventh, the Thunder Authority.

And approximately ranked around thirtieth, but with the complete version ranked among the top, the power of the Ocean.

Three powers, which even when scrutinized closely, were not regarded as weak Mid-tier abilities, were all possessed by a human who was still only at the Epic level!

If others were to find out, it would surely shock them.

Even some Mid-tier gods only had one Mid-tier authority.

Harmonized under the influence of the Ocean, the Thunder and Storm Authorities each occupied a corner, not interfering with each other, living in harmony.

It wasn’t uncommon for multiple authorities to be controlled simultaneously.

Those mythical legends left behind in the main world, immortalized by minstrels, and famous individual deities with millions of followers, all possessed multiple authorities and powers.

For example, among the gods of the Order, within the Sky God lineage, the Chief God, who had once wiped out dozens of Dark Gods and was revered by billions of believers, the Lord of Light, controlled authorities such as Radiance, Purification, and Holy Flames, serving as the leader of the Orderly Gods.

The control of authorities represented the recognition of the host by the authority, the level of control, and the strength of the host. It could be said that the more authorities one controlled, the higher the combat power.

Ji Chen slowly restrained the terrifying storms swirling around him, and the lightning-like gaze gradually became restrained, but there was a slight change in his whole person.

The righteousness of the Thunder, the grandeur of the Storm, and the vastness of the Ocean’s power, the influences brought about by these three authorities blended together, giving Ji Chen a mysterious aura.

It made people unable to help but feel an impulse to bow down and pay homage as if they had seen a walking deity in the world.

It was unfathomable.

Ji Chen shifted his attention to the suspended gray-white light cluster.

This should be the fragmented version of the Corrosion Authority controlled by the Undead Lord, which had remained motionless since losing its host.

He pondered how to deal with this authority.

In terms of lawful evil nature, the Corrosion Authority, unlike the Decay Authority or the Seven Sins Authority, was not as inherently evil; it could only be considered a neutral-type authority, with no significant influence on the morality of the host. However, it was not very compatible with orderly authorities.

If he didn’t have authorities like the Thunder Authority, it might be a good choice to control the Corrosion Authority.

But with authorities like the Thunder and Storm Authorities, which were undoubtedly Orderly Authorities, it was naturally impossible to sacrifice the essential for the secondary.

Therefore, this fragmented Corrosion Authority could only be handed over to the hero of the Crown of the Ocean. Ji Chen quickly determined the candidate in his mind.

After the complete destruction of the Undead Lord’s body and soul, the Shura Skeletons linked to its life force began to disintegrate one by one, self-destructing and falling into the pile of corpses on the islands, indistinguishable from each other.

These executioners who had followed Maldonis into battles for thousands of years, who had slaughtered countless kin and other races, had come to their end.

Previously, the exclusive dominion over life, meticulously crafted to solidify Maldonis’ complete authority over the Undead Legion, had transformed into a chance to vanquish the Demon Legion.

At the same time, in the Southern Continent, a large number of commanders, senior officers, and special legion commanders under the Undead Warlord’s command watched helplessly as their vitality rapidly dwindled away. Their bodies melted like ice cream, turning into clusters of putrid flesh.

The sudden deaths of a large number of high-ranking, middle, and lower tier officers caused the massive Undead Legion to fall into chaos, losing command and order. Amidst the boundless panic and chaos, the inherent evil and chaos within the demons erupted. Many demon legions launched riots, wielding their blades against their allies.

Of course, Ji Chen knew about this several days later.

When the hero of the Ocean Crown and other strong individuals like Isaiah saw the Shura Skeletons collapse without being attacked, they all showed signs of joy. This undoubtedly meant that the Undead Warlord was dead.

Exchanging glances, they followed Ji Chen’s pursuit of the Undead Warlord’s direction, where it seemed a terrifying storm was brewing.

As they sped across the sea, they quickly spotted a figure standing on the surface of the water.

“My Lord!”

Ji Chen turned around to see Herald and Samuel rushing over.

He asked proactively, “How’s the situation over there?”

“Those remaining Shura Skeletons just disintegrated on their own.” Alice’s eyes sparkled with excitement. “My Lord, did you slay the Undead Warlord?”

Ji Chen nodded slightly, ready to point out where the Undead Warlord had met his end, but then realized abruptly that it had been obliterated by the relentless thunderstorm, completely uprooting any trace of it..
