Chapter 507: Portal Gate

A few days later, a vast magic array appeared in the graveyard, showcasing Leena’s budding talents in summoning arts and spatial magic.

In addition to utilizing energy crystals and soul crystals, she harnessed the dense necromantic fog pervading the graveyard as the energy source for the spatial passage.

The black crystal, which Sein would eventually use for Leena’s new magic rod, was currently functioning as the eye of the magic array.

Once Leena activated the spatial coordinates embedded within the black crystal, it became the core of the operation.

The magic array, acting as the conduit, was powered by the energy crystals, soul crystals, and the necromantic fog.

From the center of the graveyard, a towering white portal gate emerged.

After completing the setup, Leena returned to Sein’s side and explained, “All of this isn’t my doing. The mage named Peano had already included a sophisticated teleportation mechanism within the black crystal, complete with the spatial coordinates of the Undead World. I only activated them and integrated some auxiliary magic arrays.”

The appearance of the portal gate, coupled with the powerful surge of necromantic energy from its other side, incited excitement among all the undead creatures in the graveyard.

“Is that the Undead World, the homeland of all the undead?” the undead knight mused, drawing nearer to the portal gate atop its white skeletal warhorse.

Although not the most powerful Rank One undead under Sanchez’s command, this knight held the greatest potential and was highly regarded by the skeletal dragon.

The agitation of all the undead creatures in the graveyard brought Sein, Leena, and Angreas to a stark realization of their sheer number.

It appeared that not all the undead had awakened upon their entry into the graveyard.

Many were still slumbering deeper in the ground, their unnaturally long lifespans drawing to a close with their soul flames on the verge of extinguishing.

Beyond the four Rank One undead creatures that Sein had previously encountered, three additional Rank One undead emerged one after another.

These newly emerged undead exuded an even stronger aura of death, yet their soul flames were noticeably weak, underscoring the fact that even undead creatures are not immortal.

In addition, the Undead World also frequently interacted and collaborated with several small to medium-sized groups established by necromancers.

For now, Sein, Leena, and Angreas had no immediate plans to explore the Undead World.

Given their Rank One life levels, they were unlikely to make any significant impact in the vast expanse of the Undead World.

Moreover, compared to the opportunities available in the Knight Continent’s trial zones—a veritable treasure trove—the Undead World held less allure.

Besides, traveling to the Undead World from the Magus World was relatively straightforward.

Anyone could travel to the Undead World with just a simple payment of magicoin at any divine tower that had a stable spatial passage connected to the Undead World.

Many Rank One and Rank Two mages in the Magus World were keen to explore the myriad civilizations under the Magus Alliance.

Among them was Lance, a mage from the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring, who first introduced Sein to advanced extraplanar knowledge.

“According to the usual pattern, the subspace secret realm within the Knight Continent’s trial zone will close in about a day. Will all of you be able to enter the portal in such a short time?” Sein asked, his brow furrowed with concern.

“It won’t be a problem. It’ll only take half a day for all of us to leave!” Sanchez replied confidently.

True to Sanchez's word, after the undead knight on the white skeletal warhorse took the lead, tens of thousands of undead creatures from the graveyard proceeded toward the spatial passage in an orderly fashion.

Sein and the others were fortunate to witness such a grand spectacle.

During this process, Leena leaned on Sein’s shoulder, feeling slightly drained.

As each undead creature entered the spatial passage, it was marked with a special brand perceptible only to Leena.

While branding a few undead was manageable, marking tens of thousands proved to be a significant strain on her.

Although each individual branding consumed only a negligible amount of Leena’s focus, the cumulative effect was substantial and taxing.
