Seeing this, Mingye couldn't sit still any longer. He immediately took out a Rune Gun from his storage ring. This Rune Gun was specially made by Chen Mu and was powerful enough to threaten even Emperor Level cultivator at its peak.
Even though the Mingye Realm has fallen, its ingenious physical structure alone means that the power of each of its shots is no less than that of the True Spirit Realm strike.
Bang bang bang...!
Mingye's marksmanship was specially trained; it was as natural as an extension of his arm, and he never missed a shot.
Soon, Li Wei noticed that enemies around her were falling one after another. Although she was surprised, she had no time to look for helpers on the battlefield and continued to focus on killing the enemy.
"I think I know how to help them!"
Chen Mu quickly came up with an idea, and then he took out some tools from his storage ring and began to assemble them.
Since the establishment of the Rune Research Institute, Chen Kingdom has not only been inventing things on Chen Mu own, but over the years, the Rune Research Institute has also produced many amazing works. However, because they have not encountered suitable opportunities to showcase their talents, many of their inventions have inevitably been overlooked.
What Chen Mu is currently creating is a talismanic Rune Artifacts invented by a talisman master skilled in lightning-attribute runes: the Thunder Control Umbrella.
Thunder, being the most yang and powerful force in the universe, is the best counter to yin and dark creatures like the undead, making it undoubtedly very suitable for use in the current situation.
Chen Mu hadn't expected to encounter this situation, so he hadn't brought the Thunder Control Umbrella with him. Fortunately, he had brought many parts for making Rune Artifacts, so he could make a complete Thunder Control Umbrella in a short time.
Ugh...!!
Just as the two sides were locked in fierce combat, a terrifying howl rang out from behind the Undead Tide. The sound was extremely piercing and sent chills down everyone's spine.
"It's over! The Skeleton King, it's the Skeleton King's voice!"
In the guard post above the village, Gao Fenghai, the leader of Iron Soul Village, stared in the direction from which the fierce roar had come, his eyes filled with despair.
The area where Iron Soul Village is located is usually hit by a Undead Tide every few years. The necromancy benefits the necromancy from feeding on the flesh and blood of the living, so the more humans gather in a place, the more necromancy will appear and the stronger they will be.
Iron Soul Village is a medium-sized village with about 10,000 inhabitants. Based on past experience, it should only encounter an attack from a maximum of about 2,000 undead.
However, this time nearly ten thousand undead appeared, and even Skeleton King with the strength of King Level appeared, which Gao Fenghai never expected.
"Damn it, I'll fight him to the death! I refuse to believe I can't beat a dead body."
After despair, Gao Fenghai was forced to show a bit of fighting spirit, because he understood that at this point, even if he wanted to run, it would be useless; the Skeleton King would never let him go.
"Archers, use incendiary arrows! Quickly!... Everyone, charge! This time, we have to fight to the death!"
Gao Fenghai shouted, and began using the strategic materials stored in the village.
Burned arrows and weapons will undoubtedly inflict greater damage on the undead.
However, fuel is extremely precious in this world. Iron Soul Village spent many years accumulating some fuel, and they didn't even use it during the last Undead Tide, but now Gao Fenghai has no choice but to take it all out.
Not long after, Chen Mu, who was on guard duty, finally finished making a huge iron umbrella that was more than two meters long.
" Thunder Control Umbrella! Open!!"
Knowing that time was of the essence, Chen Mu did not delay. Even though the Fu Mo on the Thunder Control Umbrella was not yet dry, he opened the Thunder Control Umbrella and began to activate and attract the innate lightning.
Not long after Chen Mu opened his Thunder Control Umbrella, dark clouds began to gather in the sky, followed by a bolt of lightning.
Rumble! Bang!
Seeing lightning strike the Thunder Control Umbrella, Chen Mu immediately smiled with delight. It seemed that his method was effective in this world.
"Although the amount of lightning attracted is not as great as that from the Pan Emperor Continent, it is still considerable and should be sufficient to deal with this battle."
Lightning bolts kept striking down from the sky, but they all hit the Thunder Control Umbrella. Chen Mu's movements were so large that they immediately attracted the attention of many villagers from Iron Soul Village.
Who is that person? I've never seen him before.
Gao Fenghai had excellent eyesight; even from seven or eight hundred meters away, he could still clearly see Chen Mu's face above the sentry post.
"I've never seen him before either, but this person can actually summon lightning; I wonder which expert he is."
Gao Fenghai's trusted confidant responded.
There are also cultivators in the Netherworld who can control lightning, but such cultivators are extremely rare and generally do not appear in remote villages like Iron Soul Village.
"Let's ignore him for now. The undead are a serious problem right now; hopefully, he can lend us a hand."
Gao Fenghai had also noticed Mingye next to Chen Mu at this moment. Although he had improper thoughts about Mingye, he knew how to make a choice when it came to matters of life and death like the Undead Tide.
However, he didn't place too much hope on Chen Mu. Lightning could indeed cause great damage to undead, but it also depended on the cultivator's cultivation level. With the amount of lightning Chen Mu had summoned, he probably wouldn't be able to kill many undead.
However, the next moment, Chen Mu's attack left him dumbfounded.
Chen Mu gripped the Thunder Control Umbrella and began to spin it violently.
" Thunder Force Field, go!"
Dozens of iron plates, crackling with lightning, flew out and formed a semi-circle around a village gate. The lightning on these iron plates then resonated with each other, creating a large electric field that instantly incinerated dozens of undead into ashes.
This was just the beginning. The Thunder Control Umbrella in his hand kept spinning, and every few seconds a batch of iron pieces would fly out to block the undead and burn them all to ashes.
Half an incense stick's time later, Chen Mu had already used the Thunder Iron Plate to protect the entire entrance to the village.
Those undead were of low intelligence and did not know how to avoid the lightning field, so they kept rushing into it.
In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, over a thousand undead had died at Chen Mu's hands. Holding the Thunder Control Umbrella, Chen Mu continuously amplified the power of the Thunder Force Field, seemingly without breaking a sweat.
"Wow... amazing! Who exactly is he? How can he have such incredible lightning control skills?"
Gao Fenghai was shocked. He had several guesses about Chen Mu's identity, but none of them seemed reasonable.
But at that moment, in the center of the undead tide, a three-meter-tall red skeleton rushed out and let out a terrifying roar.
roar...!
" The Skeleton King has made his move! We must stop him!"
Although the Thunder Force Field summoned by Chen Mu was incredibly powerful, Gao Fenghai could tell that the lightning only covered a large area and was not powerful enough to threaten the Skeleton King.
Fearing that the Skeleton King would interrupt Chen Mu's spellcasting, he did not hesitate to jump down from the guard post with his personal guards and head towards the Skeleton King.
