After all, Yue Chen could hardly tell Long Haochen outright that he not only believed every word, but even had a tiny-or rather, enormous-interest in Yilikes's necromancy, could he?
In theory, given Yue Chen's constitution as a Child of Light, studying and developing the two elemental attributes newly merged into his body, or devoting himself to Sacred Light Attribute skills, would have been better than practicing the necromancy Yilikes intended to teach him.
However, once the former had been proven to accelerate his body's Body Elementalization, at a cost equivalent to slow suicide, Yue Chen had decisively abandoned it.
As for Sacred Light Attribute skills, Yue Chen would certainly learn them, but he also considered Yilikes's necromancy immensely valuable.
After all, those were the very methods Yilikes had used to sweep across the Holy Demon Continent single-handedly at the height of its power. If Yue Chen used them properly, he might just be able to pull off something spectacular toward the end of the Dark Age.
Besides, Yue Chen would not need to create undead souls himself to practice necromancy. As long as he was willing to offer the right terms, countless undead creatures would naturally fight for him.
"But didn't he also say that as long as you stop using those two powers, your body won't undergo Body Elementalization?" Long Haochen said after a moment's hesitation.
"That is what he said," Yue Chen replied casually, clearly reluctant to continue discussing the subject with Long Haochen.
After all, whether he used those two powers already fused into his body was not entirely up to him. If he encountered a powerful enemy, or he and his teammates found themselves in mortal danger, could he really refrain from using them?
To Yue Chen, his Body Elementalization was only a matter of time.
