Temporary Level Increase, Level 6 (204205)

That's an urn containing ashes.

Upon seeing the scene before him, Gu Xi immediately made a judgment.

At the same time, he glanced at his health bar, decisively raised his Cold Wind Staff, and pointed it towards the tree.

"Corpse Explosion Art!"

Boom! An urn containing ashes exploded on the spot under the leaves of a big tree.

As the urn exploded, one of the figures immediately fell to the ground from a semi-floating state, lying motionless.

Gu Xi was about to say that he had discovered the other party's weakness when he felt a sudden emptiness in his body.

His life was being drained away at an even faster rate.

If he could have held on for a minute before, now it's less than half a minute.

At this moment, Gu Xi was not afraid at all, and he immediately called out Isabella.

However, before Isabella arrived, Gu Xi pointed his Cold Wind Staff at the tree again.

"The Death Avatar!"

After saying that, Gu Xi didn't care about anything else and immediately roared.

"Upgrade!"

When he finished shouting those words, his life points had already dropped to around 20.

If he had been just a little bit closer, his life would have been reset to zero, activating the effect of the stand-in Puppet he was carrying.

[Upon reaching level 6, your health and Mana will be fully restored, all negative status effects will be removed, your constitution will increase by 1, and you will choose two skills from the following five as a reward.]

[Chain Corpse Explosion: An advanced skill that can be upgraded. It requires Lesser Corpse Explosion level 4, Corpse Explosion level 1, or Chain Fireball level 1 to learn. It consumes 50 mana and can use one corpse to perform Corpse Explosion. The Corpse Explosion's power is 250% of the corpse's health. After the Corpse Explosion, if there are other corpses nearby, they can be detonated again (the power of a subsequent explosion is only 100% of the corpse's health).]

[Wave of Death: Advanced skill, upgradable, requires level 3 of Wave of Death to learn, consumes 55 mana, changes Wave of Death from all directions to a specified direction, and its power is 1.5 times that of Wave of Death.]

[Arm of Flame: Combination Skill, upgradable. Requires both Undead Tendrils and Flame Trap to reach level 2 before learning. Numerous flaming arms extend from the ground, dragging enemies underground and triggering an explosion (explosion power comparable to Flame Trap).]

[Death Sorcerer Summoning: A skill exclusive to the Death Sorcerer Lord, upgradable, consumes 50 mana, temporarily summons ten Death Wizards from the void (their level cannot exceed the user's level), who will cooperate with the user to use various Undead Spell.]

[Spirit Gathering Art: Class Skill that can be upgraded. It consumes 30 mana and can revive friendly Undead Army on the battlefield. The number of troops that can be revived is equal to the player's intelligence value.]

Gu Xi didn't pay much attention to the information that popped up in front of him.

At this moment, Gu Xi was more concerned that his life was not declining any further.

It seems that this upgrade not only restored his health but also cleared away his negative status.

At least that big tree can no longer suck Gu Xi's blood.

After making this discovery, Gu Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief and was able to take a look at the skills available to him.

After glancing at the five skills, Gu Xi made a decisive choice.

"Chain Corpse Explosion and the Death Sorcerer Summoning!"

Gu Xi couldn't afford to think about the future right now; Gu Xi would choose whatever was needed on the battlefield.

After making his choice, Gu Xi immediately cast Ghost Domain Battlefield on the Death Avatar that had rushed towards the tree.

Then he released the White Bone Canopy.

After Gu Xi had prepared his defenses, he raised the Cold Wind Staff. As he released his magic, ten Death Wizard wearing gray robes and Skull Mask emerged.

They carried short staffs made of bones in one hand and Lantern made of Skeleton in the other.

After they came out, they all bowed their heads to Gu Xi.

Gu Xi ignored them and said to them, "Come on, unleash Chain Corpse Explosion with me!"

After saying that, Gu Xi pointed at the urn on the big tree, and the Chain Corpse Explosion was activated on the spot.

Compared to the Lesser Corpse Explosion, the power of the Chain Corpse Explosion is not much higher, but it has a unique feature: when the explosion of the Corpse Explosion affects nearby corpses, the Chain Corpse Explosion will detonate other corpses.

The Chain Corpse Explosion will not stop until all the corpses have been blown to bits.

Therefore, in the eyes of necromancers, Chain Corpse Explosion is a very wasteful spell.

If given a choice, Gu Xi would not have chosen to pursue Chain Corpse Explosion as his strategy this time.

But now Gu Xi has no choice.

Given the current state of the giant tree, only the Chain Corpse Explosion is the best way to deal with it.

So Gu Xi immediately pointed to the urns on the tree and set them off in a Chain Corpse Explosion.

The Death Wizard summoned by Gu Xi didn't need to think about anything; they just needed to follow behind and cooperate.

And so, the tree kept making explosions like firecrackers.

Because the urns contain only ashes, their lifespan is actually not very high. An explosion might not cause much damage, but the sheer number of ashes makes a difference.

These urns exploded one after another, all of which caused damage to the tree.

At the same time, as these urns exploded, the figures that suddenly appeared also fell to the ground one by one.

Gu Xi noticed that there was a green light above their heads.

This indicates that they have reverted from an uncontrolled state back to their original undead state.

To Gu Xi now, they are considered friendly and neutral undead.

This pleased Gu Xi even more. He took a step forward and unleashed another Chain Corpse Explosion towards the tree.

With the Death Wizard's cooperation, the tree couldn't even use its previous techniques to drain Gu Xi's blood anymore.

Gu Xi kept moving among the Death Wizard, trying to avoid being targeted by the enemy and also to reach the urns of ashes behind the big tree.

After Gu Xi circled the tree once, the two Death Avatar also rushed to the vicinity of the tree.

The Death Avatar-Bone Dragon immediately flew to the top of the tree and unleashed Death Dragon Breath at the Tree Crown.

Meanwhile, Death Avatar-Death God, unleashed a curse upon the tree's body, and simultaneously slashed at the tree's roots with his scythe of Despair Scythe.

When the knife struck, it hit the tree's most vital root, and a large amount of blood gushed out from the ground like an oil geyser.

Upon seeing this situation, Gu Xi suddenly understood something. He stopped releasing the Chain Corpse Explosion and instead pointed his hand at the spot where the blood was spurting out. The Summoning Tower slammed down heavily, blocking the blood.
