With the Avatar dead, the two Parasitic Demons did not last long either.

Zheng Yu used his sure-hit piercing Skill, causing his longsword to detach from his hand, automatically locking onto the heart of one Parasitic Demon and piercing it through.

Afterward, he assisted Yage and Ding Ren in killing the other Parasitic Demon.

【Killed Ninth-Rank Monster Lord, obtained maximum experience 160 points,...】

【Killed Ninth-Rank Monster Lord, obtained experience 80 points,...】

Two messages appeared in succession, with Zheng Yu directly obtaining 160 points of maximum experience in one go.

The surrounding Twisted Monsters, having lost the command of their leader, were also wiped out one by one by the recovered Animal Warriors.

The experience gain notifications, which had been popping up slowly, suddenly started flooding the screen, leaving Qi Ye overwhelmed.

These high-rank monsters and Strange Demons were exactly the experience the animals craved most.

And their corpses would become fertilizer for this forest, allowing the trees to grow lushly.

The Necromancy Avatar happily reached out to collect the dissipating Divine Power. Although it wasn't much, it could still be fed back to the main body.

A blue ball of light flew out from the Dragon's mouth, carrying countless lasers that strafed the surrounding Strange Demons.

The Strange Demons on the ground began to wail and howl; they could only retreat into the nearby dragon dens, hoping to continue resisting and hold out until the effect of the Sanctuary Barrier ended.

Once the Sanctuary Barrier was activated, it would last for an entire day unless Qi Ye actively dispelled it.

The nearby Animal Warriors also had their eyes reddened with bloodlust, chasing them deep into the dragon dens.

In the Core Area of the forest, there were at least dozens, if not hundreds, of such dragon dens.

the animals split into corresponding squads and entered the dragon dens to pursue the Strange Demons.

Whatever was stolen would sooner or later have to be spat back out.

With Green Bean's Super God Perception Skill to finish things off, no Strange Demon would be able to escape the Sacred Lake's extermination.

As the Animal Squads entered the dragon dens, miserable screams from the Strange Demons echoed from deep within.

As for the tougher nuts to crack, they were left for the named elite Animal Warriors to deal with.

For example, three kilometers away, outside a Corrupt-Skin Dragon's den, a seventh-rank Animal Squad had already surrounded the entrance.

Inside, there was a Strange Demon capable of casting spells, hiding within the dragon den and putting up a desperate resistance.

The Animal Squad had eight members in total, but they were currently deterred by the opponent and dared not rush in rashly.

At this moment, the big shot they had invited arrived: the sturdy Muscle Harpy Rabbit.

A Spike Worm straightened its body and bowed, saying:

"Boss Rabbit! There is an eighth-rank Strange Demon inside. It looks like it's carrying items from the Otherworld, and it's very difficult to deal with."

The Muscle Harpy Rabbit flexed its claws.

"Hui hui?"

Hu Er also crowded over. With the main battlefield already won, it had recovered a bit of Mental Energy and was also thinking about scraping together a bit more experience.

They exchanged a glance and entered the dragon den together.

Under the joint hunt of the two animal experts,

very quickly, a surprised scream from the Strange Demon came from the depths of the dragon den, followed by a dull thud.

Its experience was split equally between Hu Er and the Muscle Harpy Rabbit.

Similar events were happening in every dragon den; the Sanctuary Barrier had shattered the dreams of all the Strange Demons.

In the sky, a sun slowly rose, dispelling the darkness.

Outside the rift sealed by the barrier, another Pitch-Black Sun remained unwilling to give up, staring intently at the Corrupt Forest below.

He had already sensed that his Avatar had been destroyed, but he did not know the reason for its death.

The Pitch-Black Sun tentatively extended tentacles toward the rift, but they were repelled by the barrier.

"Damn Sanctuary Barrier! Lord of Spirits, where on earth does your Divine Power come from?"

Tentacles danced wildly. Inside the Pitch-Black Sun, the God of Distortion's expression was as ugly as it could possibly be.

"However, you cannot escape."

The God of Distortion narrowed his eyes gloomily. He could observe that the rift was shrinking; soon, the Ascension Ritual would fail.

Killing his Avatar did not mean the matter was over.

Since he already knew the location of the Corrupt Forest Instance, he could simply camp outside.

His approach was almost identical to that of a certain fallen evil god, but the difference was that his Divine Power was thousands of times stronger than the other's.

Provoking a powerful evil god was definitely not a wise choice.

Being targeted by a top-tier evil god meant that death was almost certainly near; in fact, for the victim, death was often the best outcome.

Qi Ye suddenly felt an inexplicable chill welling up in his heart, and the feathers on his body stood on end involuntarily.

He raised his head, tracing the source of the chill, and looked toward the rift in the sky.

It was as if the Pitch-Black Sun could see his body through the barrier.

As long as the Corrupt Forest Instance could not immediately change its coordinate position in the Otherworld, it would be locked onto by the God of Distortion.

Qi Ye was already mentally prepared for this.

He shifted his gaze back to the Necromancy Avatar in front of him. Fortunately, the Necromancer God was still attracting the opponent's aggro; the God of Distortion could not keep his eyes on this place forever.

Qi Ye's judgment was very accurate.

Indeed, after staring for a while, the Pitch-Black Sun flew away.

He had more important things to do, which was to pursue the Necromancer God.

During this time, his followers sent bad news: the Necromancer God, who had been besieged in a small dungeon, had taken advantage of his departure to seize another opportunity to escape.

Obviously, it was more important for him to press on with a single effort, concentrate all resources, and kill the insidious and cunning Necromancer God once and for all.

He had only lost an Avatar here, and the forest dungeon wouldn't fly away.

The Lord of Spirits, in the end, only possessed a growth-type Authority and hadn't even achieved Ascension to Godhood; he couldn't stir up any real trouble.

Once he dealt with the Necromancer God, he would naturally have plenty of time to resolve this troublesome Lord of Spirits.

At this moment, the Necromancy Avatar still in the forest hadn't dissipated yet and didn't know about the main body's situation.

Being summoned by the necromantic divine bone had one advantage: after the Avatar dissipated, its memories would automatically be transmitted to the main body.

Looking at the necromantic aura all over the ground, the Necromancy Avatar happily gathered it up and rolled it into a small black ball.

Except for a portion of the necromantic aura that was absorbed by the necromantic divine bone to recharge, most of the necromantic aura was collected.

The Necromancy Avatar clutched it in its palm as if it were a rare treasure.

Although it looked similar to the divine power essence, this time the small black ball contained only necromantic aura that only he could process.

Just like ruminating cattle or sheep, it could subsequently be processed into the Divine Power he needed.

Based on the painful lesson of having two divine power essences stolen, he had created a brand-new safeguard this time.

At this moment, if the necromantic ball lost his control, even if it were stolen, the necromantic aura would quickly dissipate; the Lord of Spirits would be stealing it for nothing.
