The phantom did not lunge at Mo Fan straightaway, but commanded the lower-ranked undead nearby to attack him.

The undead immediately charged toward the group, either leaping, tearing, sprinting, or breathing out poison…

Mo Fan did not panic when he saw the undead approaching him.

“Rose Flame: Fiery Fist: Nine Halls!”

The ground began to tremble as Mo Fan slammed his fist into it. Before the nine astonishing fire pillars even burst out from the ground, something blazing red was already boiling in the cracks!

The pillars rocketed out of the ground one by one, each as thick as the trunk of a huge tree. The pillars were full of blazing lava, ignited sparks across the place as they splattered in the air!

Flames burned the area between the fire pillars. The undead who were caught in the fire had only been only buried underground for a few years, and their bodies were not refined enough to endure the incredible heat. Not a single undead that was caught in the range of the Fiery Fist: Nine Halls survived.

The skeletons turned into ashes while the zombies turned into burned charcoal. The phantoms simply vanished into smoke and dispersed. For someone like Mo Fan, who was equipped with all kinds of destructive spells, he was afraid of neither close combat nor being surrounded, especially when he could easily eliminate a huge group of Servant-class creatures instantly.

The Fiery Fist annihilated the group of thirty undead that the Two-Face Phantom General sent out. They all turned into Soul Remnants floating into the Little Loach Pendant. It seemed like one among them was a Soul Essence. Mo Fan did not take a close look at it, as another group of zombies breathing out poisonous gas were approaching him on the scorched land.

Mo Fan hated poison the most. Although the poison unleashed by these zombies was not too effective against an Advanced Magician, it would still inflict serious damage to his body after a prolonged period. Poison was extremely deadly in his situation since he still had to fight an overwhelming number of undead.

Poisonous zombies, poisonous liquid, poisonous claws… Mo Fan avoided contact with anything poisonous. When he was sprayed with the poisonous liquid, he immediately weaved through the zombies in the form of a shadow and arrived at a relatively spacious area.

“Leave the poison to me!” Su Xiaoluo’s voice came from not far away.

Mo Fan raised his head and soon discovered the green poison mist was being pulled away by something. It was floating toward where Su Xiaoluo was standing.

Su Xiaoluo opened her palm. A wind vortex appeared on her palm, absorbing all the poison of the zombies nearby, including the poisonous liquid that was being sprayed in the air!

Mo Fan had rarely seen a Poison Magician. His grim face barely showed any emotion when he saw Su Xiaoluo getting rid of the troublesome poison with ease!

Without the threat of the poison, Mo Fan was able to focus on killing the undead.

Claws slashed fiercely in Mo Fan’s direction. He could now dodge the attacks with his improved agility. Even when five poisonous zombies were trying to tear him to pieces, he still dodged the attacks with ease without relying on the Fleeing Shadow or the Blood Tabi.

Leaping backwards, Mo Fan created some distance from the five poisonous zombies. The clumsy creatures lunged at him, but they ended up knocking into one another.

Mo Fan took hold of the chance and shoved his arm forward. Several Lightning Strikes struck forward and danced between the five poisonous zombies like eels…

He flipped his right hand. The flame he ignited shone upon his icy face.

He tossed the Fire Burst right in the middle of the five poisonous zombies. When the brilliant fireworks of the explosion went off, the five immobilized poisonous zombies were blasted to pieces!

Mo Fan glanced at the remains of the zombies scattered across the ground. He had eliminated the five poisonous zombies with ease. He could clearly feel the difference in his power after achieving the Advanced Level. Instead of the need to focus when casting Basic Spells, he could now cast them by waving his hands. Together with his improved movement and quick reactions, the Servant-class no longer posed any threat to him. If it weren’t for their overwhelming numbers, the fight would simply be a one-sided massacre!

The Two-Face Phantom General was furious. It finally ran out of patience and charged forward when it saw its guards were completely beaten up by a human.

When the ten-meter-tall creature sprinted forward, the human-sized undead immediately stepped aside, or the creature would simply crush them. The Two-Face Phantom General abused the advantage of its size and rammed forward, stomping a few careless skeletons into pieces!

Mo Fan did not assume that he could withstand the impact after he became an Advanced Magician. He immediately kicked the ground and leapt a few dozen meters away when he saw the phantom targeting him!

The Two-Face Phantom General had thick arms, and clenched its hands into claws. When it saw Mo Fan jumping away, it skidded to try and turn, and slashed at Mo Fan with its claws…

The Two-Face Phantom General could easily grab a human, its claws could poke right through a person’s body. Due to the momentum from its charge, the creature slid across the ground while swinging its claws, leaving Mo Fan with no chance of escaping!

Mo Fan felt a sudden icy gust from his right, which turned out to be the Phantom General’s claws. He quickly leapt backward, barely dodging the attack…

The Phantom General pulled back its claws, but they ended up cutting only air. When it came to a stop and turned back around, Mo Fan was already around forty meters away!

The distance was enough to guarantee Mo Fan’s safety. He slammed his hand on the ground; Lightning Strike went off, and hundreds of lightning arcs flickered wildly and turned the place into an electric field.

Now that the zombies could no longer get close to him, he had eliminated the threat of being flanked from the rear. His pupils flickered as a mysterious purple Star Pattern and Stars connected deep inside them!

His casting speed was extremely fast. The ability to draw Star Orbits with a single thought and the upgrade to his will had further improved his mind, allowing him to finish a Star Pattern in no time.

A restless stormy cloud appeared in the direction he pointed his finger. A piercing screech rose as the Phantom General realized the destructive force accumulating above it!

The lightning descended from the cloud, tearing through the sky in the form of a purple-black bolt. The truth was, when they saw the blinding lightning flash, the energy of the bolt had already landed on the ground, shaking the entire space!
