Chapter 2565 Trap and Kill
Cliff fell silent for a moment before looking up, saying, "Forget it. Even if there are slight flaws in your sea of consciousness, with the Empress's abilities, there shouldn't be any danger. We can't wait for another inheritor; we must begin immediately."
Fang Heng's heart stirred as he pressed, "High Priest, is there something urgent?"
"It's nothing. You'll know once the ritual is complete," Cliff replied, turning away and moving a few steps closer to the blue ice crystal pillar in the center of the Great Hall. He then turned back to Fang Heng.
"What? Aren't you coming?"
"High Priest, the strength of the power hidden in my sea of consciousness is quite high. If I'm not careful, it could disrupt the Empress's affairs, which wouldn't be good. For safety's sake, we should..."
"Hmph! Stop stalling! I've already said that the Empress's will inheritance will pose no problems. I see you have other thoughts!"
Cliff's expression shifted as he fixed his gaze on Fang Heng.
"Since you are here, you will either accept the inheritance or remain here forever!"
"High Priest, I have no intention of hiding anything. For safety, why don't you enter my sea of consciousness and check for yourself? Confirm that there are no issues?"
"Very well, I'll personally check! What is it that makes you so apprehensive?"
As he spoke, Cliff summoned a black mist that enveloped Fang Heng's body.
"Don't resist!"
With a whoosh, the black mist surged into Fang Heng through his facial features.
Tan Shuo and Li Shaoqiang quickly stepped back, warily watching Fang Heng.
This was bad!
Just as they were about to rush in to help, Tan Shuo suddenly noticed a cold smile curling at the corner of Fang Heng's mouth. A thought flashed through his mind, and he quickly blocked Li Shaoqiang.
"Wait!"
Tan Shuo recalled vividly that not long ago, Fang Heng had annihilated the will of the death knight in his sea of consciousness. Now, Cliff's will was also entering Mr. Fang's domain.
Could it be that Mr. Fang intended to use the same tactic again?!
Was Fang Heng planning to lure him into the sea of consciousness from the start?
"What?"
"Don't rush! Let's watch!"
Tan Shuo held Li Shaoqiang back, keeping a close eye on Fang Heng.
Fang Heng was indeed thinking along those lines. Annihilating the will of Persephone would be a tall order, but dealing with a high priest of similar rank to the death knight should be much easier.
Cliff's will surged into Fang Heng's sea of consciousness, probing for any anomalies.
As expected, Cliff sensed an unusual energy field within Fang Heng's sea of consciousness. However, this energy coexisted peacefully with the ice crystal imprint left by Empress Persephone, residing in a corner of Fang Heng's consciousness. freēnovelkiss.com
What kind of power was this?
Cliff had never encountered such energy fluctuations before, so he moved closer to investigate.
But just as his consciousness approached, a shock surged through him.
This was bad!
The energy wave erupted suddenly, engulfing him rapidly!
This force was clearly under Fang Heng's control!
"Hmph!!"
Realizing that Fang Heng had malicious intent, Cliff snorted coldly, "Fang Heng! Don't try any tricks! If you persist in this foolishness, don't blame me for completely obliterating your will!"
Seeing that Fang Heng showed no signs of backing down, Cliff let out a heavy huff.
"Hmph! You're seeking your demise!"
Cliff had not intended to completely extinguish Fang Heng's will or occupy his body, as this would affect Fang Heng's innate talent. However, with Fang Heng's consciousness now attacking him and blocking his escape route, Cliff had no choice but to take action.
He summoned his will, preparing to crush Fang Heng's will entirely.
In an instant, Cliff's will surged, expanding within the sea of consciousness as he attempted to obliterate Fang Heng's will in return.
The disparity in their abilities was immense.
After all, Fang Heng was still too young, and his willpower was no match for Cliff, who had cultivated for tens of thousands of years.
Just when Cliff thought victory was assured, his pupils suddenly constricted.
What?!
In an instant, Cliff felt a chill run through him.
The next moment, a massive will force crushed down on him!
With no means of resistance, the will originating from the demonic seed acted like a colossal grinding wheel, shattering his will in an instant.
A game prompt flashed quickly across Fang Heng's retina.
[Hint: The player has chosen to refuse the inheritance of the Empress's will.]
[Hint: The player has killed Cliff's will. The player gains holy spirit crystal*8.]
[Hint: The player's Greed demonic seed passive effect is activated, allowing the player to delay the mission settlement.]
Fang Heng gasped, suddenly opening his eyes.
He had succeeded!
He had successfully lured Cliff's will into his consciousness and then obliterated it!
Li Shaoqiang and Tan Shuo, who had been waiting nearby, rushed over as soon as Fang Heng opened his eyes. They looked at him, eagerly asking, "Mr. Fang? How's it going?"
"Not a big deal."
"What about that priest? Did you take care of him?"
"Yeah, by a stroke of luck."
Li Shaoqiang and Tan Shuo exchanged glances.
Although they had suspected as much from Fang Heng's demeanor, hearing him confirm it left them in shock.
The high priest, a subordinate of the once-mighty Empress Persephone, had been effortlessly dealt with by Fang Heng?
It felt almost surreal, as if they were dreaming.
Fang Heng flipped open the stone slab in his hand.
The latest information from the higher-ups of the undead faction had been transmitted to the slab.
The content was straightforward, mostly warnings to be cautious of Empress Persephone's schemes. However, the intelligence held by the undead council was limited, and they couldn't provide any actionable advice for the time being.
He stored the stone slab away.
Now that Cliff was taken care of, he had completely severed ties with Empress Persephone.
Using the Greed demonic seed ability, he could temporarily delay the mission settlement.
Perhaps he could buy some more time.
With that thought, Fang Heng looked up at Tan Shuo and Li Shaoqiang. He said, "While we still have time before the next phase of the mission settles, let's search this mausoleum. We should see if there are any other valuable findings we can take with us."
"Sure!"
The three of them immediately began to search the mausoleum for useful clues.
Meanwhile, the instructors from the undead council could only watch the general situation through the mirror projection. They couldn't hear the conversations among the trio and were unaware that the high priest Cliff had been killed while trying to invade Fang Heng's sea of consciousness. They were still anxiously seeking a countermeasure.
After a few minutes, they suddenly saw Fang Heng and his companions spread out, starting to search for clues. The instructors exchanged puzzled glances, unsure of what was happening.
