Liu Zhi had never expected to hole up in the Spider Domain for a full seven years.
During those seven years, he only went out once each year, around July or August, to lie in wait for Abodo.
The rest of the time, he stayed in the Spider Domain, studying how to mass-produce his mythic undead troops.
Seven years wasn't all that long for Liu Zhi, but he had certainly made the most of it.
For starters, the legions he had brought with him were now almost fully replenished. Their organizational structure was still in place, and as long as he could find undead who met the requirements, replenishing the troops was fairly quick.
At the same time, he had made breakthroughs in his research on divine undead and mythic undead.
After all, with so many materials available, Liu Zhi could easily find a large batch to study and use in his experiments.
He also had three standard templates to guide him: female undead, divine skeletons, and Eagle Warriors. The Light Eater had given him a new idea, too, so his research success rate over the past few years had been quite high.
Using the corpses of divine creatures and mythic soldiers he had collected earlier, along with corpses obtained in the Underworld and several mythic corpses from the God of Linen, Liu Zhi had created three types of mythic troops that could be trained and replenished over the long term.
These were genuinely powerful troops that could be trained and replenished indefinitely.
They weren't like the troops made by other necromancers, who produced a few more whenever they had materials and simply made do when they didn't.
Liu Zhi's three types of mythic troops were all powerful forces that could be trained and replenished on an ongoing basis.
