SORCERESS 101 177 Secret Behind The Great War Of Magi

After that, Luna's sleeping body appeared in the middle of the cavern.

The old hermit approached the sleeping cat, but as soon as he saw its condition, his eyebrows shot up!

"This!!! It's the working of the aura of the dead lingering in her body. Just where in the h.e.l.l did she get that??!"

Noticing the frighten expression of the old hermit, Mu Lingxi and her friends look at one another.

Could it be that the old hermit already had a rough idea about the nature of Luna's condition?

"Aura of death can be caused by some baleful creatures. But to have an aura of death, as strong as this one, there is only one creature capable of such feat. But they no longer exist in this world."

The old hermit explained. Disbelief was clearly written on his face.

"May I know what is that creature you were referring to, old hermit?"Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

Fan Lei can't help but ask. There was a slight glimmer in his eyes when he realizes that his previous deduction could highly be correct.

"It's the army of the undead."

The old hermit replied grimly.

The little snow dragon on his hands was also getting confused as she whips her tiny head from left to right, following their exchange of words.

On the other hand, when Mu Lingxi and her friends heard the familiar term, the group looked at one another and they saw the same fear reflecting on each other's eyes.

If even the old hermit has the same conclusion as Fan Lei, does it mean that they truly fought with the army of the undead last time?

Due to Schoolmaster Yin's doubt about the credibility of the situation, the group also started doubting if it was actually the army of the undead that they met before.

But now that they heard another confirmation, they started to rethink the things that happen.

"I won't be able to awaken her. What I can do for you instead is  I can warrant you a chance to fetch yourself the water out from the pool of Eternal Boiling Spring."

Eternal Boiling Spring is the same pool of boiling water that the group saw when they entered the crystal cavern.

It is also the main source of the water that flows down the Cloud Mist Ridge, the spring of youth.

"Although having her drink the miraculous water will not regain her consciousness, it will at least revitalized her."

Even though the act of subjecting oneself into a deep slumber will be able to preserve their life force a little longer, eventually their body will start deteriorating over time.

Even if Luna wakes up, it will still take time for her to recover in her full health. But with the aid of Eternal Boiling Spring, her body will be able to maintain its good health."

"Thank you for your kindness, old hermit."

"Old hermit, we also came here in hopes of finding some information regarding soul arts. May I ask if you knew any? Or if you knew someone who can help us?"

Before coming to the Cloud Mist Ridge, they had already expected the worst. If ever the soul beguilement thing fails, they would at least hope to get some information regarding soul arts.

"If it is about soul arts, there is no other better candidate than necromancers."

"But pract.i.tioners of necromancy had long been annihilated, so how can we meet one?"

"Who told you that they were annihilated???"

The old hermit asked in return. A mysterious gleam reflected in his eyes when he asked that question.

"What do you mean???"

It has not been long since they first heard a thing about necromancy. But at the same time, they were also told that this practice of communicating with the dead has already been forgotten. To the point that records about them were so rare and minimal.

Yet from how the old hermit says it, it seems that was not exactly the case.

Is it possible for them not to be totally erased in the face of the world yet?

Just what exactly is happening?

What is the truth and what is not?

"It's like this..."

The old hermit recounted everything that he knew about the secrets of the world magic.

Back then, during the Great War of Magi, the necromancers fought side by side with the Evil Magister. Due to their ability to bring someone back from the dead, they gain a great advantage in the war.

The bloodshed works to their advantage, because the more the death toll rises, the more they get someone to join their ranks.

They were the greatest adversary the world of Magic ever had.

As such, mankind paid a huge some just to defeat them. When the Evil Magister fall, mankind joined hand to eradicate all surviving necromancers.

Their actions managed to successfully erase the existence of the necromancers at that time. But little did they know, that the practice was able to survive that annihilation.

There was an apprentice necromancer who got banned in pursuing necromancy before that incident. Because of that, he managed to escape the misfortune of the necromancers.

Bringing with him, the knowledge that he learned from his apprenticeship.

"If you really need someone who knew about soul arts, you should look for him. I believe he even established his own sect back then. Although they no longer practice the deprive art of bringing someone back from death, awakening a dormant soul won't post them much of a problem."

"Where can we find them?"
