Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage
chapter-534

*****

A void opened above the residence of the Wester Clan. From the void, the Southern General came out, donning a bearing black armor that made him appear like a powerful warrior.

Many members of the Wester Clan stood in awe as they watched him approach, unsure of what this unexpected visit might mean. However, the Southern General wasn't alone. There were even more people accompanying him this time.

Without having to wait for a single command, the Southern General's men surrounded the entire place.

The Southern General just looked down, standing high in the air. There was a frown on his face since he couldn't feel Karyk's aura in this place. It felt as if the guy wasn't here in the first place.

A trace of anger flashed in his eyes. He wasn't sure if the Wester Clan lied to him about Karyk's presence or if he simply failed to hold him back. There was also a possibility that Karyk was hiding his aura, but that seemed unlike him.

In any case, to get to the truth, he worked with the Wester Clan Patriarch and searched the entire place to catch Karyk.

Unfortunately, the longer the search went on, the angrier he became. In the end, Karyk was nowhere to be found.

Even when he spread out his Divine Consciousness as far as possible to search for Karyk, he couldn't find the man.

In the end, his anger only diverted to the Wester Clan Patriarch.

Even the Wester Clan Patriarch was surprised that Gabriel or those guests were nowhere to be found even though they had sealed this place soon after the incident. However, he stuck to his story, leading the Southern General to the place where Karyk had used his magic, to show him that he wasn't wrong.

"This is indeed the aura of that guy..." The Southern General stood in the bloody field, sending the aura in his surroundings. Karyk's aura was so powerful that it still hadn't disappeared from this place.

The Southern General was irritated. Karyk was actually here yet he managed to escape. He doesn't even know where Karyk could be right now. However, one thing was for certain. It was that Karyk had entered the Upper Realm! That was the news worth noting.

A large-scale hunt for Karyk was to be commenced in the Southern World. He also decided to inform the other Generals about this! Until now, they were all careful, thinking that Karyk might come there in the future. However, he was already there!

****

While people were getting ready to hunt Karyk to the ends of this world, the young man in question was sitting next to a skeleton shrouded by a mysterious light.

His eyes were closed and his aura was so weak that he appeared as if he could die at any moment. No one knew what he was doing but it appeared dangerous.

....

There was darkness everywhere in the void. In eternal darkness, only a void could be seen. It was as if there was nothing but empty dark space as far as the eyes could see.

In the vast darkness, there was only one source of light. It was a soul staying still in the middle of the empty void.

The soul looked completely identical to Gabriel. However, there was a small crack in the soul. The crack slowly kept increasing, as if it was some poison that was impossible to stop.

The speed of this crack increasing was so slow that it was barely noticeable.

However, the soul appeared to be going through a strange phenomenon.

Multiple golden words appeared around the soul in physical form. Those words were also the same words that Gabriel had chanted before;

All the words shrouded the soul in a mysterious light. Even though the light couldn't stop the corruption from increasing, that wasn't its purpose.

The reason for this Corruption was his main pure soul merging with his second soul which had been assimilated by other Elements at the core. This was the cause of everything.

There was only one way to solve this according to him. That was to reverse the merger. However, there was one problem with that. If the merger between his main self of Karyk and his secondary self of Gabriel was reversed, then one of the two souls had to die.

Now that his main soul was completely awakened, it wasn't impossible for his two souls ro stay in the same body. He couldn't put his main soul to sleep for an eternity again, especially since they were in such a dangerous situation. That left only one option for him.

He wanted to separate his two souls while at the same time, preparing a body completely identical to his main body, in some ways even superior to it!

He used his own blood on the skeleton to give it some of his Traits, making sure that it looked just like him and was a real person.

Next, the second body contained the skeleton of a True God that was stronger than anything he had seen. He still didn't know the mystery behind those golden words on the bones but it was certainly that the power was nothing to scoff at! And lastly, he used the blood that contained the strength of another true god.

In essence, Karyk had used his knowledge to create another person, who had the skeleton and blood of two true gods!

His main soul couldn't enter the second body as it was too strong. Moreover, all his Death Elemental Marks had already merged with this body. However, that wasn't the case for his secondary soul of Gabriel.

If he could succeed, he believed he could bring Gabriel back, separate from him. Maybe even stronger than him!

Moreover, unlike him who had to stick to only the Element of Death, Gabriel had the merged element of Light and Darkness. As long as the two souls were separated, Gabriel didn't have to worry about Soul Corruption again.

Karyk didn't want to do this initially since there were lots of risks involved, but in the end, they had no chance. They could either watch themselves getting weaker or separate!
