The mythic-tier Holy Light Core was enveloped by the power of creation and slowly drifted into the air.
Under Chen Xu's guidance, the holy light energy within it was slowly diverted, transforming into nine chains that connected to the nine suns in the sky.
Wave after wave of holy light rippled across the suns. Under the influence of creation power, the core's source energy seeped into the hearts of the suns.
Once the connection was established, the feedback of solar energy followed immediately.
Violent solar energy surged along the chains and into the Holy Light Core.
In an instant, the Holy Light Core erupted with blinding brilliance. A tenth sun appeared in the sky of the Undead Divine Court.
The first step—connecting the Holy Light Core to the suns—was complete. Next was to link the three items and the specific region.
With the experience from creating Taiyin, Chen Xu was now well-versed in wielding the authority of creation. With a single thought, the three items prepared by Big Boss flew into the air and merged into the Holy Light Core.
Following that, the light of the Holy Light Core gradually withdrew, becoming soft and gentle.
Then, guided by Chen Xu, the core slowly descended toward the Wailing Lake.
The Wailing Lake, the habitat of ghosts, was the fusion region Chen Xu had chosen.
To grant cold ghosts the power of the sun—what a mad endeavor.
As the core slowly descended, massive amounts of steam began to rise from the Wailing Lake.
Gurgle, gurgle!
The core fell into the lake. Instantly, the water began to churn and boil.
"Aaaaaaah!"
A mournful shriek erupted from the depths of the lake, echoing through the clouds.
Following the scream, a blinding beam of light shot into the sky, illuminating the entire Undead Divine Court.
This light was not as blistering as the sun; it felt warm and comforting.
At that moment, the Undead Divine Court was turned into a world of pure white. Every corner was illuminated by the light.
The brilliance did not fade for a long time. During this period, Big Boss wanted to report something to Chen Xu. As soon as Xuan Chu opened a spatial gate, a dazzling beam of light shot out from the portal and flew into the Land of the Undead.
The beam of light streaked across, sweeping over a large group of low-level undead passing by. In an instant, those undead burst into flames, howling as they ran across the Land of the Undead.
Xuan Chu hastily closed the spatial gate and summoned bone dragons to extinguish the fires on those unlucky undead.
To his surprise, the frost breath of ordinary bone dragons could not extinguish the flames. The fire even traveled up the breath, nearly burning the bone dragons themselves.
This bizarre scene terrified the bone dragons.
In the end, Sindragosa had to step in. Using divine power combined with her polar breath, she finally quelled the fires on the low-level undead.
However, after such a delay, those unfortunate low-level undead had long since lost their breath and lay motionless on the ground.
As the crowd dispersed, a large group of ghouls tunneled up from underground to take the corpses away.
Before long, a ghoul den caught fire. The flames blazed fiercely, and wherever the firelight reached, it carried rich holy light energy.
Fortunately, a greedy Bone Kun was near that ghoul den.
The Kunpeng suddenly caught the scent of holy light in the air—a scent it had long craved. Last time, when it helped Chen Xu collect Alifa's light wing fragments, it could only smell them but not eat them. After craving it for so long, the Kunpeng had become extremely sensitive to the scent of holy light.
With a flash, it appeared above the ghoul den. It opened its gluttonous maw and activated its full swallowing power, devouring a massive chunk of the earth.
By the time Xuan Chu and the others arrived, only a large hole remained in the ground.
Time trickled by, and quite a while passed.
Within the Undead Divine Court, the light gradually dissipated. The creation of the sun was nearing its end.
In truth, the sun had already been created; what Chen Xu was doing now was adding a limiting switch to it.
The combination of holy light and solar power was far too overbearing. Chen Xu intended to use it to suppress disobedient undead in the Land of the Undead, not to kill them all.
If he didn't add a limit to the sun, he feared it might instantly wipe out all low-level undead in the Land of the Undead.
Once the final restriction was loaded, a layer of transparent barriers covered the nine suns, which could significantly weaken the sunlight's purification power.
At the same time, this barrier also served a focusing function, allowing the sunlight to concentrate on a single point to unleash tens of thousands of times the damage.
The Wailing Lake—no, it should now be called the Lake of Holy Souls.
【The Wailing Lake has mutated. The rules of the Undead Divine Court have changed. New region acquired: Lake of Holy Souls.】
【Lake of Holy Souls: The originally dark and sinister Wailing Lake has undergone a 180-degree transformation after being baptized by both holy light and the sun. The ghosts are gone; the Blazing Souls are reborn.】
【The Lake of Holy Souls will bless corpses thrown into its waters, nurturing Blazing Souls filled with the power of the scorching sun.】
【Ghosts can enter the Lake of Holy Souls to receive baptism and transform into Blazing Souls.】
【(Heavens, what kind of madman would do such a crazy thing? To introduce the power of the sun and holy light into the Land of the Undead... even a ghoul that hasn't eaten for ten thousand years wouldn't do something like this.)】
Ripples appeared on the calm surface of the Lake of Holy Souls.
A tiny speck of light emerged from it, slowly rising.
"God-Lord!"
The speck of light emitted a youthful yet slightly majestic voice, then transformed into a shooting star and arrived at Chen Xu's side.
Chen Xu reached out and caught the speck of light. The newborn sun radiated a faint warmth.
"Shengyang, show me your avatar form."
"Yes, God-Lord!"
The speck of light flew from Chen Xu's hand and leaped into the air.
The brilliance faded, and a figure emerged.
The first thing to catch the eye was a broad, heavy set of golden armor with a red sun emblazoned on the chest.
The figure's left hand was palm-up, cradling an imperial seal. The right hand hung naturally, clutching a volume of scriptures, exuding a regal aura.
However, the face visible above the armor was that of a young boy.
The youthful face was entirely at odds with the majestic armor, creating a striking contrast.
"God-Lord, this Holy Sun Imperial Seal of mine contains the power of nine suns. It is overbearingly powerful; a single strike is enough to heavily injure a mythic-tier creature."
Shengyang then raised the scriptures in his right hand, wielding them like a weapon.
"As the ancients said, within books one finds a house of gold; within books one finds a jade beauty. This Hao Sun Scroll of mine carries the radiance of the sun. It can impart techniques to my vassals and enlighten their minds, allowing them to understand reason and attain the Great Dao."
As he spoke, Shengyang opened a spatial gate to the Undead Divine Court. His gaze pierced through the gate, locking onto a ghost, which he then dragged inside.
His large hand firmly gripped the ghost's head. The blistering heat caused the ghost to smoke and sizzle, and it let out a pained howl.
Ignoring the cries, Shengyang stepped over to the Lake of Holy Souls and shoved the ghost into the water.
Massive amounts of black smoke billowed from the water. Before long, the ghost was gone, and a Blazing Soul was reborn.
After suffering such inhuman torture, the Blazing Soul's mind was muddled, and it didn't yet understand what had happened.
Shengyang raised his right hand and smacked the Blazing Soul on the head with the scroll.
A vast amount of knowledge was forcibly hammered into the Blazing Soul's mind through the strike, etched into the depths of its soul.
In the next instant, a sharp glint shot from the Blazing Soul's eyes. A cultivation technique began to circulate automatically within its body, and it started absorbing the essence wafting from the Lake of Holy Souls.
Having finished this, Shengyang turned to Chen Xu and said quite proudly, "God-Lord, see? This scroll is so convenient! With just a light tap, the knowledge enters the brain."
Chen Xu nodded. "It is indeed convenient."
With the scroll to impart techniques, the strength of the Blazing Soul sun-vassals would surely see a massive increase.
Combined with their radiant and extreme yang attributes, they would likely be able to reign supreme in the Land of the Undead as long as they didn't run into a necrotic archduke.
After watching Shengyang's demonstration, Chen Xu opened a massive spatial gate.
The nine suns slowly flew out of the Undead Divine Court and entered the Land of the Undead.
"Shengyang, go. Enter your designated orbit and patrol this land for me."
"By your command, God-Lord!"
Shengyang turned into a streak of light and flew into his true body.
As the nine suns appeared in the Land of the Undead, their light pierced through the gloomy world.
All the undead looked up, not understanding what had happened to their world.
First, there were those glowing spheres not long ago, and now there were even larger ones.
Many undead creatures that had consumed lunar essence thought the light from the suns would be beneficial like the moon's, and they scrambled to claim the best spots.
But when the sunlight hit them, it brought only waves of intense pain.
Large numbers of undead creatures fled in all directions, diving into burrows or beneath the Bone Thicket.
Necrotic lords and necrotic archdukes alike were drawn to the brilliance of the suns.
If they could ignore the lunar essence brought by Taiyin, they could no longer turn a blind eye to the sunlight brought by Shengyang.
After all, those nine massive spheres of light floating in the sky radiated the aura of the eternal-tier.
In a certain secret realm within the Land of the Undead, Alix the Primordial Black Knight looked at the nine suns and nine moons in the sky. A ripple finally appeared in his long-dormant heart.
"To have created eternity before even becoming Unique... Humans truly are a race favored by the world."
To the northwest, in Lothar's territory.
The calamity power sensed the nine suns through the dark canopy. The scent of the sacred and extreme yang within them made the dragon tremble involuntarily.
Lothar's expression was hideous as he continuously released calamity power, weaving the most complex web of fate he had ever created since his birth.
On the other side, that stone tablet finally showed some movement. From being completely motionless, it began to tremble incessantly in place.
The vibrations traveled deep underground, even triggering a small earthquake.
"Undead above! It's only been how long, and he's already created the eternal-tier? And the things he creates aren't undead-like at all! I want to report someone for using hacks!"
The stone tablet's emotions were intense as it grumbled inwardly.
But when the sunlight reached its territory, the trembling stone tablet instantly went silent, returning to its previous state of playing dead.
Once Shengyang entered his orbit, Chen Xu also emerged from the Undead Divine Court.
He had prepared for a long time, all for this day.
"All undead, assemble to the northwest. Today, we slay the dragon!"
