Chapter contained, it was an encyclopedia of the sources of all lives.
There was almost as much information as there was in the 108,000 true runes. Also, it was even more complicated and esoteric, and a lot of the information was interconnected. It was impossible to construe without background information.
Lin Yun understood. When he obtained the first piece, he had speculated that it belonged to the Source Chapter, a component of the Book of Death that was known as the most useless one. He didn’t expect it to be an encyclopedia. In a way, it might be the most powerful component, not because it was used for destruction and fight, but because it was the source of life.
That was incredible for every mage. It was possible for lives to be born in a Demiplane, even though the Demiplanes of most mages contained nothing but elemental lives.
But elemental lives were still lives. As soon as Lin Yun figured out the Source Chapter, it would be possible for his Demiplane to give birth to suitable lives. The elemental lives would surely become more powerful. At the very least, his elemental lives wouldn’t be the butlers of Demiplanes like those of other mages.
His Natural Demiplane was almost evolving into a real world. At least it contained almost everything expected of a real world. The only difference between the two was the degree of perfection.
However, no real lives had been born in the Natural Demiplane yet. There were insects and worms in the Natural Demiplane, but they were not intelligent, and couldn’t really help. Besides, they might not have been born in his Natural Demiplane.
Even the elemental lives hadn’t been born in the Demiplane yet. There was not even any sign of conception. Who knew when the elemental lives would be born?
Possibly, it was because his Natural Demiplane had been growing too fast, so the elemental lives never had a stable environment. Besides, the more powerful a Demiplane was, the more powerful the elemental lives in it would be.
There weren’t even native elemental lives in the Demiplane. Naturally, Lin Yun had every reason to feel anxious.
He would be satisfied even if only a goblin was born. Even though they were filthy, stupid, and wicked, they were intelligent lives anyway.
His Natural Demiplane had been developed to a high point. To turn into a real world, the most critical step was to give birth to intelligent lives.
Unfortunately, Lin Yun didn’t have any clue about how to do that. After he became a Saint Alchemist, he was able to create things out of nothing. However, he could only create infertile grass at this moment at best. In fact, most Saint Alchemists of Noscent were similar to him. Even the best of them could only create bigger grass.
Becoming a Saint Alchemist was only the beginning of another phase that was even more difficult. Creation was even harder to grasp than Heaven Rank extraordinary power. It was more like the power that could change laws.
It was impossible to accelerate the development of lives in a world as a Saint Alchemist. However, Lin Yun was finally more confident after receiving the encyclopedia of lives. If he couldn’t accelerate the process, then it would be a waste for him to have the Source Chapter…
But it was not the time to study the Source Chapter yet. After a few quick glances, Lin Yun closed the Book of Death. He had acquired the Source Chapter. He had to consider how to catch a living vampire ancestor, which was a huge problem.
Entering the Kingdom of Nightmares wasn’t a challenge; leaving it was the problem. Also, after capturing the vampire ancestor, he couldn’t enter the Kingdom of Nightmares with the guy, and had to keep him waiting in a certain place.
Lin Yun thought for a long time, and didn’t have a good solution, so he left his Demiplane, and marched to the territory of dark lives with the bloody scythe on his back in the Plane of the Undead.
The Plane of the Undead was hundreds of times bigger than Noscent, and it was expanding. The lives of all planes could be classified into two categories: the undead ones and the living ones.
The living ones were scattered in countless planes, and 99% of undead creatures were concentrated in the Plane of the Undead, which had to be huge enough to accommodate them. If the creatures in all planes were gathered in Noscent, it would’ve exploded.
The point of impact between the Plane of the Undead and the Leviathan Plane was in the territory of undead creatures, but it wasn’t too far away from that of dark creatures. The distance was only 40,000 kilometers, which wasn’t far in the Plane of the Undead.
As a special skeleton king who carried a bloody scythe, he was quite eye-catching in the Plane of the Undead. After killing a few stupid undead creatures and a few dark creatures for their soul fires, Lin Yun knew the place as well as the natives did.
He learned that this black plain was named Krim Gobi, which meant the land that was contaminated by dark blood. This area was sort of a buffer between the dark creatures’ and the undead creatures’ territories, and also a battlefield.
Even though the population of dark creatures was much smaller than that of undead creatures, dark creatures were stronger as individuals, at least on lower levels. That was very important. It was also the main reason why they could fend off undead creatures.
After swallowing the soul fires of a few Heaven Rank undead creatures, he didn’t get many more death marks, but he did learn a lot of information.
Passing through the Krim Gobi, and going 3,000 kilometers west, it would be a level-45 vampire lord’s territory. He was a second-generation vampire. It would be easy to find a weak vampire ancestor through him.
It took Lin Yun a couple of days to reach the vampire lord’s territory. Soon, a swarm of gargoyles approached him along with countless bloodthirsty bats. A tremendous number of dark beasts were coming on the ground too.
The gargoyles and bloodthirsty bats were the fastest. They were not scared at all to see Lin Yun. They shrieked and screamed, surging like a black torrent.
Lin Yun extended his claw, and scratched his skull. His jaw moved up and down, and he let out a creepy laugh.
He had planned to summon an army of undead creatures with the skeleton king’s ability, but he was afraid that it might scare off the vampire lord. Also, it might be bad if he turned the battle too huge. He should probably do it on his own.
Out of his expectation, his opponent sent cannon fodder to him the moment he arrived.
Lin Yun soared to the sky with the scythe of death in his right hand. He injected the power of death into the scythe. Instantly, the eyes of the skull on the scythe glittered. As Lin Yun swung the scythe, a crescent aura flew out.
The crescent aura expanded crazily to a kilometer in length. Also, it was not just flying, but revolving crazily like a mincer.
The seemingly ordinary gray mincer hit the black torrent of gargoyles and bloodthirsty bats. No noises could be heard. Countless gargoyles and bloodthirsty bats exploded, and their bodies were cut into pieces. As the crescent aura passed, there was no blood or screams. They simply fell from the sky as dark ashes.
All the noises within kilometers seemed to be corrupted by the power of death. There was nothing but silence as the ashes slowly dropped. A skeleton stood on the black land with a bloody scythe in his hand, watching the rain of ashes fall.
Several kilometers away, the charging dark beasts were horrified. Those in the lead stopped, and turned around, fleeing, but those in the rear were still charging. In only a few seconds, they became a complete mess. Hundreds of them were torn apart by each other in the chaos.
In the sky, a huge patch of the black cloud of gargoyles and bats was missing. The other gargoyles and bats were fleeing in panic.
Lin Yun swung the scythe casually a few more times, launching a dozen more gray crescent aura attacks that tore apart most of the gargoyles and bats like gigantic mincers. Half of the dark beasts on the ground were eliminated too.
Soul fire shivered in Lin Yun’s eye sockets. He suddenly felt it wasn’t a bad idea to play as the skeleton king once in a while. He was probably even stronger than a Heaven Rank Sword Saint with this scythe of death.
The two aggressive armies of dark creatures were half killed by Lin Yun who only casually waves his scythe. He chased the dark creatures casually, and killed them when they approached, letting the rest run.
The gargoyles could run more easily. The bats and dark beasts were the only colors in Lin Yun’s eyes in the black-and-white world. He could see their bloody auras from 30 kilometers away.
Lin Yun suddenly realized that dark creatures and undead creatures fought all year long probably because dark creatures were still living creatures in a way.
At least that was the main reason for low-level creatures. If a level-20 dark beast trespassed on the territory of the undead, the unintelligent undead creatures would surely tear it apart.
While he considered how to capture the vampire lord and track down a weaker vampire ancestor, Lin Yun felt that someone just scratched his skull. The guy’s sharp claws caused dazzling sparks on his skull, and an earsplitting noise burst out as if two pieces of metal were rubbing against each other.
Lin Yun lowered his head. Then, he felt that something was hitting his spine constantly. A shadow emerged behind his back. He could see that two claws were scratching his head and spine crazily. His neck was a main target too.
