Necromancer: I Am A Disaster

Chapter 312: New Skill; A Pillow Appears When You Want To Sleep



A long flight of steps stretched into the distance, winding upward until it connected with a towering Angel statue. Along the way, various items were placed—one every 100 steps. However, reaching those items was no simple task, as the path was littered with Light Elemental Sprites. To reach these items, one had to endure the self-destruction of the Light Elemental Sprites.

But for Lin Moyu, this posed no challenge. The Light Elemental Sprites couldn’t even scratch his Bone Armor. Their self-destruction was a mere light show against his defense. All Lin Moyu had to do was close his eyes to shield against the bright flashes, and the rest was smooth sailing.

With unwavering confidence, Lin Moyu marched forward. The Light Elemental Sprites flung themselves at him, detonating one after another. Amidst the thunderous explosions, Lin Moyu pressed on, his Bone Armor completely blocking the blasts, without slowing him down in the slightest.

Compared to the passage in the Divine Selection Secret Realm, this passage was much longer yet far less difficult. After all, this was just a level 40 dungeon—how difficult could it really be?

Soon, Lin Moyu reached the 100th step and claimed the first item.

[Light Crystal Fragment: collect five Light Crystal Fragments to fuse into a Light Crystal.]

Lin Moyu allowed himself a faint smile. This dungeon didn’t involve fighting monsters; it was more of a trial-based dungeon. The goal was simple—pass the trials, and you get the rewards. The Light Crystal Fragment in his hand looked like a small shard of glass, glowing faintly with a soft white light. It seemed unassuming, but Lin Moyu could feel the dense light element within it. One fragment alone was useless, but combining five would yield a valuable Light Crystal.

His gaze traveled ahead, up the seemingly endless flight of steps. Every 100 steps, there was another fragment—and perhaps other treasures.

“This is going to be quite the harvest.” Lin Moyu thought, determined to collect them all.

As he pressed forward, the power of the Light Elemental Sprites' self-destructive attacks gradually intensified. His Bone Armor gleamed brighter, signifying the increased impact it was taking, but it was still far from being overwhelmed. Lin Moyu paid it no mind and continued his steady progress, picking up Light Crystal Fragments along the way.

Eventually, he gathered five Light Crystal Fragments, and then he fused them into a complete Light Crystal.

[Light Crystal: can be combined with other single-element Elemental Crystals to create an Elemental Divine Stone, which can increase the chances of class sublimation during the third class awakening. The more elements are fused, the stronger the stone's effect. It can also be used alone to permanently enhance light resistance. But by doing so, it can no longer be used to form the Elemental Divine Stone.]

Without hesitation, Lin Moyu retrieved an Elemental Divine Stone and carefully fused the Light Crystal into it. A few minutes later, he held a brand-new Elemental Divine Stone.

[Elemental Divine Stone (fire, poison, earth, light): increases the chances of class sublimation by 20% during the third class awakening.]

With four elements combined, the odds of class ascension had risen to 20%, double the rate of a three-element stone. Lin Moyu recalled that three more elements—water, wind, and lightning—could still be added. He wondered just how high the odds could be pushed.

Bai Yiyuan had once mentioned that an Elemental Divine Stone could boost class sublimation chances up to 50%. While Lin Moyu didn't doubt his words, he still felt it wise to verify for himself.

After storing away the Elemental Divine Stone, Lin Moyu continued his steady march forward. He had only traversed about a tenth of the long passage, with plenty of treasures still lying ahead. Collecting more Light Crystals was definitely on his agenda, as he still had another Elemental Divine Stone.

Sometime later, Lin Moyu reached the 1,000th step, acquiring another Light Crystal, which he immediately fused into the other Elemental Divine Stone, meant for Ning Yiyi. This one now carried the earth, fire, and light elements.

The path stretched on endlessly, filled with rewards for those persistent enough to claim them. By now, the Light Elemental Sprites had grown significantly stronger. Their self-destruction attacks had doubled in power, but even that was insufficient to threaten Lin Moyu. It took five of them detonating to wear down his Bone Armor. The armor not only blocked the damage but also neutralized the impact entirely, leaving Lin Moyu completely unfazed.

Among all Mage-type classes, Lin Moyu couldn’t think of a better defensive skill than Bone Armor.

He advanced step by step toward the distant Angel statue, his movements swift yet controlled. Despite the blinding white light of the explosions and the growing power of the Light Elemental Sprites, nothing could slow his progress. He didn’t even pause, except to gather items.

The 2,000th step… the 3,000th step…

Lin Moyu gathered four more Light Crystals as he pressed forward. The Light Elemental Dungeon didn’t exist in the Human World, so practically no one had ever obtained Light Crystals over the years. Given this rare opportunity, Lin Moyu aimed to collect as many as possible.

"Hmm, something’s changing." He muttered, sensing a shift as he passed the 3,000th step. By now, he had covered more than half of the passage and was closing in on the towering Angel statue. But something was different—the steps ahead were no longer grouped in units of 100.

In the distance, he spotted a shining item on the 3,500th step. The steps were now grouped in units of 500. Lin Moyu eyed the distant item, a sense of familiarity stirring within him. Based on his past experience, he could guess what it was.

Quickening his pace, Lin Moyu felt the intensity of the Light Elemental Sprites’ self-destruction increase once more. Now, it only took two blasts to destroy his Bone Armor. He kept moving forward, recasting his armor as needed. The increased power of the Light Elemental Sprites still didn't faze him—so long as the Bone Armor could withstand one attack, he had ample time to recast it.

Reaching the 3,500th step without trouble, Lin Moyu picked up the pure white gem lying before him.

[Light Gem: permanently reduces light elemental damage by 50% and may grant a light elemental skill. Effective only upon first use.]

"Just as I expected, it's a gem." Lin Moyu smiled, unsurprised but pleased.

He activated the gem using his spirit force. Immediately, a pure white light enveloped him, forming a massive orb of energy that swirled around his body. The light lingered for a while before slowly fading, signaling that Lin Moyu hadn’t awakened a new skill. But just as the glow began to dim, something extraordinary happened.

The Angel statue at the top of the steps trembled, and a beam of brilliant light shot forth from the staff in its hands, striking Lin Moyu directly. The fading mass of light around him flared to life once more, even brighter than before.

A massive surge of light element gathered around him, and a pair of faint, ethereal wings formed on his back. Through the radiant light, Lin Moyu could clearly see everything the Angel statue was doing. The statue’s aura dimmed, as if the light beam it had just released had consumed most of the energy it had accumulated over the years.

[Acquired skill: Blessing of Light]

[Blessing of Light (level 1): grants immunity to all negative statuses (including curses, seals, silences, bindings, and other negative states) for 30 minutes. Cooldown: 30 minutes.]

Lin Moyu’s heart raced with excitement. It felt like the universe had delivered the perfect solution just when he needed it most. With a 30-minute duration and a matching cooldown, this skill essentially granted him seamless immunity. From now on, he no longer had to worry about summon-sealing spells or other debilitating status effects.

Lin Moyu bowed to the Angel statue, "Thank you!"

The Angel statue didn't react, remaining silent and unmoving. Lin Moyu wasn’t sure if its actions had been part of a pre-determined set of rules or if it had acted with some form of consciousness. Either way, his gratitude was genuine.

With this new Blessing of Light skill that could ignore negative statuses and the permanent 50% reduction in light elemental damage from the Light Gem, the journey into the Abyss had been more than worthwhile. But the passage wasn’t over yet. Continuing forward, Lin Moyu reached the 4,000th and 4,500th steps, where he obtained two more Light Gems.

By this stage, the Light Elemental Sprites' self-destruction attacks had become dangerously powerful. Each blast was now strong enough to shatter his Bone Armor. Even Knights with Extreme Defense might struggle to endure this level of damage. It was clear the final stretch, like in the Divine Selection Secret Realm, was meant to filter out all but the strongest.

Undeterred, Lin Moyu continued recasting his Bone Armor repeatedly as he made his way upward, pushing forward despite the relentless blasts. Finally, he reached the top of the long flight of steps.

At the summit stood a box made entirely of the light element. The moment Lin Moyu touched it, the box disintegrated into countless white motes of light, leaving behind two items in his hand.

[Light God's Heart: can be used to awaken the Light God.]

[Light God's Key: a key that can open the true Light God's Palace.]

Lin Moyu studied the items thoughtfully. He had previously acquired the Fire God's Flower and the Fire God's Key, which could be used to awaken the Fire God and unlock the Fire God's Palace respectively. Now, he held the tools to awaken the Light God and open the Light God's Palace. Could there be a connection between these?

Suddenly, a deafening boom echoed as the dungeon shook violently. Lin Moyu’s gaze snapped to the Angel statue, which crumbled before him, its once imposing form collapsing into ruins. From its remnants, the staff it had held transformed into a beam of pure light and flew directly into Lin Moyu’s hand.

[Monarch's Scepter (incomplete): legendary weapon, all attributes +500,000.]
