Scourge of the Undead, Electrolux

"An underworld Martial Soul, underworld Soul Skills, paired with a life of luxury that couldn't be more worldly..."

Su Chen looked at the simulator and couldn't help laughing.

"What is this? Two negatives make a positive?"

[Thanks to your Innate Full Soul Power, along with the care of the big shot Kong Deming, you thrived at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy.]

[While the other students were still struggling to memorize formulas and grind components, you had already begun calling the shots in the lab.]

[Of course, you hadn't neglected your Soul Power cultivation, either. After all, might makes right.]

[At age seven, you reached Level 20 Soul Power and became a Level 2 Soul Engineer.]

[This caused a minor stir at the academy, and you were hailed as a "prodigy."]

[At age ten, you reached Level 35 Soul Power and became a Level 3 Soul Engineer.]

[On the surface, you were a genius progressing by the book.]

[In reality, only you knew that your extraordinary Spiritual Power and precise control had already made you capable of developing Level 4 Soul Tools!]

[Keeping your true abilities hidden was a lesson every strong person had to learn.]

[Besides, you had plenty of "extracurricular activities."]

[Over the years, you had put your Martial Soul's unique properties to use, prowling the dark corners of Ming Capital and even venturing to the outskirts of Evil Demon Forest to "pick up scraps."]

[Though you seemed like nothing more than a frail Soul Elder, your "undead army" had already begun to take shape!]

[Your proudest acquisitions were the soul of a 20,000-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant and the soul of an unlucky Level 80 Soul Douluo who was also a Level 8 Soul Engineer!]

[Just imagine: your opponent thinks you're a helpless little rabbit and is about to bully you, only for you to casually toss out a Soul Douluo-level henchman... The sight would be downright cruel!]

[Did you feel that you'd reached the pinnacle of life?]

Su Chen's lips curled into a faint smile. "No, we're just getting started. The real show is about to begin."

[Age twelve. Years of hard work finally paid off!]

[Your Soul Power surged forward, breaking through the Level 40 bottleneck and making you a Soul Ancestor! At the same time, you officially passed the examination and became a Level 4 Soul Engineer!]

[A twelve-year-old Four-Ring Soul Ancestor and Level 4 Soul Engineer!]

[The news hit the entire Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy like a depth charge!]

[Overnight, your name became synonymous with legend.]

[That day, the man who stood at the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Empire's Soul Guidance Technology—Kong Deming—could no longer sit still.]

[He personally stepped forward and publicly announced that he would take you as his personal disciple!]

[This was more than an honor—it was a protective charm!]

[Even the ambitious Crown Prince Xu Tianran sent you a congratulatory gift in person. As he looked over your profile, a gleam of "ambition" flashed in his eyes, and he exclaimed:]

["Heaven favors the Sun Moon Empire! If this child can be made to serve me, what great undertaking could possibly fail?"]

[Your talent, strength, and even your mastery of Soul Tools surpassed your peers in every way.]

[This shattered the confidence of Xiao Hongchen, who had always prided himself on being the "Sun Moon Empire's greatest genius."]

[If Xiao had been born, why had Chen been born too?]

[To prove himself, Xiao Hongchen challenged you in front of everyone!]

[The Soul Fighting Arena was packed with spectators.]

[Everyone thought you were asking for trouble. After all, Xiao Hongchen had a full ten levels of Soul Power over you! In the Soul Master World, a ten-level gap was an uncrossable chasm.]

[But you merely smiled calmly and accepted the challenge.]

[The moment the referee announced the start, Soul Rings slowly rose beneath your feet.]

[Yellow, purple, purple, black!]

[The entire arena fell silent!]

[A thousand-year second ring! A ten-thousand-year fourth ring!]

[How was that possible?!]

[In the Sun Moon Empire, where most people relied on pills to raise their Soul Power and had poor Soul Ring Configurations, yours was so astonishing it seemed like technology from another planet!]

[Even the teachers in the stands were so stunned that their glasses nearly fell off.]

["Aaaah! He's so cool!"]

[Meng Hongchen instantly turned into a lovestruck fan, her eyes turning into hearts.]

[She completely ignored her own brother's face, which was black as the bottom of a pot, and waved at you as she shouted, "Go, Brother Su Chen! Beat Xiao Hongchen! If you win, I'll marry you when I grow up!"]

[Spit—!]

[Xiao Hongchen had just finished forming his Soul Cannon when he nearly spat blood.]

[Was she even his real sister? He didn't need a sister who was such a traitor!]

Su Chen looked at the words on the simulator, the corner of his mouth twitching.

"Beat my future brother-in-law to marry his sister? Why does that sound so weird..."

Still, this soft life... ahem, this chance encounter was rather special.

[The fight was completely one-sided.]

[Even with Xiao Hongchen ten levels ahead in Soul Power, even after he brought out a full set of Level 5 Soul Tool Turrets, he was still as fragile as paper before your "Scourge of the Undead."]

[Gray gates swung open, and countless undead creatures poured out like a tide!]

[Since Soul Masters in the Sun Moon Empire were generally weaker, your undead army didn't have any top-tier fighters.]

[The strongest were an undead Soul Douluo who had been Level 89 in life—and a Level 8 Soul Engineer—as well as an undead Ice-Sealed Deer with 50,000 years of cultivation.]

[But that was more than enough to deal with Xiao Hongchen, who was still playing in the dirt!]

[The Soul Douluo undead didn't even use his full strength. He simply tossed out a few Level 8 defensive shields, leaving Xiao Hongchen's attacks to accomplish absolutely nothing.]

[Then the Ice-Sealed Deer charged, and this genius of the Sun Moon Empire was sent flying out of the arena in a graceful arc.]

[Xiao Hongchen lost!]

[You proved to the Sun Moon Empire with overwhelming strength that, before a true cheat, the gap in levels was nothing but a joke.]

[You knew full well that as your strength was revealed, danger was quietly drawing closer.]

[Your Martial Soul was simply too unusual. If those lunatics—the Evil Soul Masters of the Holy Spirit Cult—set their sights on you, the consequences would be unimaginable.]

[They would stop at nothing to capture you and brainwash you into their "Saint," or simply refine you into a puppet.]

[Until you had absolute strength, Ming Capital was your only safe haven.]

[But one night, as you were fully absorbed in closed-door cultivation,]

[Everything suddenly changed!]

[A terrifying aura beyond description tore through space without warning and forced its way into your Spiritual Sea!]

[Boom—!]

[Your Spiritual Sea instantly surged with monstrous waves!]

[It was a battered yet suffocatingly powerful soul!]

[It seemed to have crossed endless stretches of time and space, bearing an ancient, weathered aura—and the power of the undead, so overwhelming it could make heaven and earth change color!]

["Hm? Such pure Spiritual Power... and this unique soul fluctuation..."]

[An aged, authoritative voice echoed in your mind.]

[The gray figure gradually took the shape of an old man. His gaze was profound, as if he could see through all the cycles of life and death in the world.]

[He looked at you, a flicker of delight in his eyes.]

["I never expected to find, in this world, a young talent so suited to inherit my legacy."]

["Child, I haven't much time left... This wisp of my remnant soul is about to fall dormant."]

["Before I do, remember my name."]

[The old man slowly raised his head, an aura of dominion over the world rising from him.]

["I hold the sun and moon in my hand and pluck the stars from the sky; there is no one like me beneath the heavens!"]

["I am—Holy Necromancer, Scourge of the Undead, Electrolux!"]

[As his voice faded, the gray figure transformed into a gray bead, quietly floating in the depths of your Spiritual Sea.]

[You were so shocked that you couldn't speak for a long time.]

[Electrolux! The terrifying existence who had nearly destroyed an entire world, according to legend!]

[Was this cheat a little too overpowered?]
