Chapter 1025: Gaining a firm foothold

Secondly, for any creature with skeletons, especially those with powerful skeletons, such as giants or dragons, this is increasing their danger in disguise.

When anything becomes a resource and is profitable, those merchants can turn it into a business, and some even regard it as a profession.

Let’s not talk about other things for now, isn’t it the case with dragon hunters?

Many people embark on this extremely dangerous path of hunting dragons. Many people do so because of hatred, but more of them are due to interests. Dragons are often equated with wealth.

In the material plane where the intelligent race led by humans rises, the range of dragons’ activities is getting narrower and narrower, and this reason cannot be ignored.

In Gavin’s other hometown, this kind of thing is even more extreme. How many animals and plants have been eaten to extinction because of their medicinal value, and how many can only survive in breeding gardens because of their deliciousness.

Fortunately, this is a world with gods.

With this kind of skeleton technology, Gavin dares to climb in the bottomless abyss. If it is in the material plane, I am afraid it will attract the hostility and counterattack of countless gods.

Not only will the good gods not sit idly by, even the gods who are in charge of death will find it difficult to tolerate such things.

Immortality is just a small branch of the death priesthood. Most death gods will tolerate the existence of this priesthood, but will not let it get out of control and grow.

Because doing so will easily break the balance between life and death, weaken the power of the death gods, and may even lead to dereliction of duty.

Gavin is not prepared to put this matter entirely on the gods. After all, those evil gods related to immortality have never had so many taboos. In order to enhance their own strength, they are even willing to promote it to become bigger and stronger.

If you want to solve the problem once and for all, you can replace it with other scientific research directions and surpass skeleton technology.

As long as it loses its value and has a better direction, the number of people interested in it will naturally decrease.

But now, with skeleton technology as his main strength, Gavin did not tie his hands, and he still climbed.

When the divine power of the road was integrated into the territory, Gavin's control over the giant bone territory reached a new level.

He can control the soul fire channels at will, allowing them to change the flow direction according to his will.

Since all the soul fire channels under his control will automatically float up, absorb the surrounding bones, and turn them into new bone roads, even the location of the soul pool can be changed according to his will, and even the soul pool can be created.

When I first came into contact with the soul pool, I felt it was extremely incredible and mysterious.

But after understanding its operating principle, it was just like that. It is a fusion of soul energy and the law of summoning the undead.

If you want to artificially create a soul pool, you only need to merge the soul energy with the corresponding summoning law.

Of course, this summoning law is not something that can be produced casually.

Gavin has a super cheater - the immortal killing divinity.

This is another difference between the immortal killing divinity and the killing divinity. The latter can only occupy the existing soul pool, while the former can create it.

And it is natural and reasonable.

Because the two are interdependent, when the first immortal dead soul was born, the concept of immortality came into being, and the first spark of immortal divinity was produced.

After mastering the divine power of immortality, one naturally possesses the ability to shape immortal beings.

However, there is a prerequisite for this matter, that is, Gavin must master the corresponding summoning rules to create a soul pool that summons this kind of undead.

In other words, he must first occupy a soul pool of this type and learn the corresponding summoning rules - the kind engraved in the soul pool's sea of ​​consciousness, and previously achieved the purpose of controlling the soul pool by infecting them.

Like the previous transformation of soul pools, the number of soul pools that Gavin can build is equivalent to the divine power he controls.

The biggest advantage of this self-built soul pool is that Gavin can fully apply strategies and tactics to the territory.

A soul pool infused with more divine power represents a main city.

And a soul pool infused with one or even several points represents a branch city or satellite city.

The skeleton road connects them.

When a soul pool is attacked, the surrounding soul pools can respond immediately to it, and the original scattered situation will no longer occur.

Building a large number of skeleton castles to guard these soul pools is not realistic in a short period of time, and it is not meaningful. After all, the undead do not have such living needs.

However, it is still very simple to create a favorable battlefield like in the previous battle against General Sestin, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack, waiting for the arrival of surrounding reinforcements.

Looking down from the air, the appearance of the Giant Bone Territory has undergone earth-shaking changes. The criss-crossing skeleton roads, the orderly scattered soul pools and the newly recruited undead army, it looks like a huge war chessboard.

Going forward, Gavin can gather hundreds of thousands of undead troops in a short time in all directions.

Retreating, the Giant Bone Territory, which covers an area of ​​more than 200,000 square kilometers, will become a huge battlefield with sufficient strategic depth. A large number of strategies and tactics can be deployed here to drag down and destroy the enemy until a counterattack is launched.

This strategic depth is still expanding. After incorporating all the dragon bone territories of the Skeleton Dragon King into the territory, his undead killing divinity power can be increased by at least 50 points, and the area controlled by the territory will double to 440,000 square kilometers.

Here we are talking about the actual controlled area, not that the combined area of ​​the Giant Bone Territory and the Dragon Bone Territory is this large.

In fact, the Giant Bone Territory alone has more than this number.

After all, there is still a big difference between Gavin's control method and the high-level undead lords such as the Giant Bone King.

The Giant Bone King and his people are at best occupation, and there are holes everywhere. Let alone people like Gavin who control the corresponding divine power, even a slightly stronger existence can secretly occupy the soul pool.

It is common for those low-level undead lords to fight each other and compete for the soul pool. They can't control it, and they won't.

But Gavin is different. He can absolutely control his occupied area and make everything here act according to his will.

This does not mean that Gavin will abandon the part of the area that he does not control, but use the skeleton road to enclose them in the form of enclosure, which is also part of the strategic depth of the territory.

If necessary, strategic contraction can be carried out to retract the divine power and soul energy together.

Gavin, who had been developing step by step, immediately adjusted his strategic plan after reaching a surrender agreement with the Skeleton Dragon King.

The original construction was temporarily stopped, and all the soul energy was concentrated to advance rapidly towards the Dragon Bone Territory.

This was visible to the naked eye.

The terrifying soul energy was like a huge flood, directly bursting onto the surface, and the surrounding skeletons followed it rolling forward.

However, wherever it passed, it did not leave a mess, but a flat, 30-meter-wide skeleton road.

This skeleton road runs in a straight line, directly from the Giant Skull Castle to the Dragon Tomb.

Even if the road is paved with divine power, it is impossible to reach it in an instant.

It can only reach 4 kilometers per hour, which is not as fast as the walking speed of an ordinary person, but if it is magnified to the sky, it is quite terrifying, reaching 96 kilometers per day.

Gavin initially thought that the speed was still determined by the number of divinities, but after the divine power exceeded 100 and there was no obvious improvement, he knew it was not that simple.

But for him at the moment, this speed is just right.

The straight-line distance from the Giant Skull Castle to the Dragon Tomb is 521 kilometers, and Gavin took a full six days.

Doing so is certainly contrary to the strategic tactics of speed and adds countless variables out of thin air.

The Skeleton Dragon King may regret and refuse to surrender.

The Burning Queen may feint and attack the Corpse Territory openly, but actually target the Giant Bone Territory in order to escape the battle.

It is precisely because of these many variables that Gavin dare not rush forward easily, but to take steady steps and push forward slowly.

Before entering the Abyss, he already understood one thing, don't believe in the promise of any demon.

For them, betrayal is commonplace.

The only way to make yourself strong enough and leave them no chance of a comeback is the most reliable strategy and tactics.

Now the advantage is mine.

It is more beneficial for him to delay for a long time, so that he can digest the Giant Bone Territory more thoroughly and fully implement his will in it.

Sometimes we have to admit that hatred is indeed very powerful. It can not only give a person stronger will and strength, but also affect a person's behavior pattern.

This is the case with the Burning Flame Queen. This time, she did not show any repetition and led her Burning Flame Army all the way to the Corpse Territory.

When Gavin's Skeleton Road arrived at the Dragon Tomb Road, her Burning Flame Army had already entered the Corpse Territory and began to attack the city.

The Corpse King adopted a strategy of luring the enemy deep into the territory. The undead and soul energy along the way were withdrawn, leaving no chance for the Burning Flame Army to replenish its troops.

"Imran? What are you waiting for? Why don't you accept the transformation of my god quickly? Do you have to wait for my god to kill you in your dragon tomb and pull you out?" The Giant Bone King stood in front of the surging waves of bones and said loudly.

He was full of interest in humiliating the Skeleton Dragon King.

Although the Skeleton Dragon King had verbally expressed his willingness to surrender before, this was not his delaying tactic, and he had always had fantasies.

He imagined that the external situation would change again and the situation would reverse again.

He imagined that the divine power was not as powerful as the King of Giant Bones said.

Therefore, he refused to surrender to Gavin, but retreated to his dragon tomb and confronted the killing army.

As time went on, he became more and more desperate.

Not only did the situation not develop in his favor, but the enemy's strength became stronger and stronger.

This can be seen from the killing army that surrounded the dragon tomb.

In the first three days, there was a constant stream of killing soldiers joining in.

In the last three days, a large number of dragon bone soldiers changed their camps and defected to the enemy camp.

These undead themselves naturally do not have this ability. There is only one possibility for this situation, that is, the soul pool carrying their soul imprints has been occupied by the enemy, and it is still occupied at the level of undead power.

Only in this way can they be controlled through the soul imprint.

This is a process of one increase and the other decrease.

The more the soldiers of the killing army increase, the less the number of dragon bone army will be.

Feeling the huge soul energy surging in the skeleton wave, the Skeleton Dragon King abandoned the last bit of luck. The strength of the two sides was completely different. There was no point in continuing to struggle. It was better to use the resources in his hands to fight for the last bit of dignity and benefits for himself.

Although this dignity and benefit depended entirely on the character of the other party.

Once controlled by such an immortal power, everything was out of his control.

The other party's previous promise was completely regarded as his last dignity.

When the time came, even if the other party really ordered him to be the mount of the giant bone king, he had no choice but to obey.

The Skeleton Dragon King slowly flew out of the dragon tomb and flew towards the skeleton wave. Under the malicious gaze of the giant bone king, he landed reluctantly.

Boom!

The skeleton wave was like boiling, and it rolled directly towards the Skeleton Dragon King.

The so-called oath was just a form, and the real binding effect was the immortal power.

Therefore, Gavin simply skipped the hypocrisy.

Roar!

At the moment of being submerged by the huge wave of bones, the Skeleton Dragon King instinctively resisted, the soul fire of his whole body surged wildly, and the surrounding bones entangled around him uncontrollably, forming a huge bone ball to wrap it up.

The ability of the Skeleton Dragon King is exactly the same as that of the Giant Bone King. The control of bones has reached the level of divine power. Not only can he change the bones into what he wants at will, but those skeleton-like undeads can hardly fight back in front of him.

"Asking for trouble!" It was not Gavin who laughed, but the Giant Bone King.

Gavin's ability to manipulate bones originated from him, but it surpassed him.

It would be fine if the Skeleton Dragon King did not resist. Once he resisted, he would inevitably be violently suppressed and suffer in vain.

The Giant Bone King naturally would not warn him kindly.

As expected.

Before the bone ball condensed by the Skeleton Dragon King was fully formed, a terrifying will came out from the huge wave of bones, just like an invisible big hand pinching the super giant bone ball, with a violent cracking sound, and cracks appeared on it.

Even the Skeleton Dragon King in the bone ball was affected, and it was also pinched.

No.

To be more precise, all the bones in its body were controlled and dominated by a more powerful force. No matter how hard it struggled, it couldn't move at all.

This is bone manipulation.

It is more advanced than his primary divine skeleton manipulation.

Although his and the King of Bones' skeleton manipulation reached the primary divine level, they only used mortal power after all. In the mortal world, they did have a crushing advantage.

But when facing a person who truly controls the divine power, especially the immortal divine power, when both sides control the same level of ability, they will naturally be inferior.

The immortal power like a flood kept washing over the Skeleton Dragon King, replacing the foundation of its existence in a slow and firm manner.

Boom!

Just like Gavin's transformation of the Bone King, as the lords of the territory, they were the key to rule this territory, directly allowing the millions of undead elites under his command to be brought under his rule.

The immortal killing divine power entered a new round of surge, directly breaking through to 160 points. If it could condense the divine nature, it would already be five divine natures, and it would definitely enter the category of weak divine power.

Given that the condensation method of the divine nature is to double the growth, the more it goes, the more divine power is needed.

To upgrade from five divine natures to six divine natures, the total divinity needs to reach 320.

From six to seven, it needs 640.

From eight to nine, it is 1,280.

And so on, when it comes to powerful divine power, it will reach a terrifying number.

This is why there is a huge disparity in strength between the gods.

Of course, the competition between gods is not just about the amount of divine power.

If that were the case, those powerful gods would have destroyed many weaker gods long ago, and gathered their divine duties to themselves, making themselves the only true gods.

In addition to the mutual constraints between the existence of those divine powers, the mutual generation and restraint between the divine duties is also a reason that cannot be ignored.

The paving speed of the skeleton road has increased to five kilometers per hour.

This shows that the number of divine rank should determine its paving speed.

The divine rank level of gods is like the professional level of mortals. Most of the strength of their abilities is determined by it, especially those related to divine power.

After successfully incorporating the Dragon Bone Territory, Gavin finally put down his hanging heart.

In this way, he has completely established a foothold in the Bone Plain.

Even if the Burning Queen puts down her hatred and joins hands with the Corpse King again, it is unlikely that she will want to fight against herself.

I have occupied the two territories of Giant Bone and Dragon Bone, which is not as simple as one plus one equals two. (End of this chapter)
