In a simulated life scenario, how do you defy fate and change your destiny every time?

Chapter 54 Second Life: The Prey Comes Knocking

But after calming down...

Lu Yuan felt that although the idea was audacious, it was not entirely impossible.

Because the Dreadlord is considered an enemy by the will of the magical world and cannot personally descend into this world, his power will inevitably be greatly weakened.

As long as you act carefully, you may still have a chance!
Moreover, the Dreadlord is the lord of the abyss.

A soul of immense power is undoubtedly the best material for crafting the Philosopher's Stone.

Besides.

The main mission that Lu Yuan is simulating this time is to defeat the Abyss Demon Legion.

If I could truly refine the soul avatar of the Lord of Dread.

Not only can it greatly increase your own strength, but it can also significantly advance the main storyline!

It's like killing two birds with one stone!
Think of this.

Lu Yuan was overjoyed and summoned Norton over that very night.

"hiss!"

When he heard Lu Yuan's outlandish plan, he was stunned and speechless, frozen in place.

Transform the soul fragments of the Dreadlord into the Philosopher's Stone.
This is something a carbon-based life form could come up with?
Blood-Red Castle.

After listening to Lu Yuan's plan.

Norton was struck dumb, and for a moment wondered if either his ears were playing tricks on him or Lu Yuan's brain was malfunctioning.

Although alchemists are said to be a bunch of madmen who are willing to pay any price to explore the mysteries of the universe.

Norton now felt that Lu Yuan was a hundred times, a thousand times crazier than the Dark Alchemist!
Who is the Lord of Fear?

That is the Lord of the Abyss, the supreme being who commands billions of demons!
Even a ninth-tier Saint Magister would avoid it when he saw it!
But Lu Yuan, a seventh-tier skeleton mage, actually dared to try to refine its soul avatar into the Philosopher's Stone.
Even if you're looking to die, this is outrageous!
Norton was almost in tears.

If it weren't for the constraints of the [Undead Scourge], he probably would have turned and run away long ago, and wouldn't have dared to get involved in this matter at all.

not to mention.

The Philosopher's Stone is a legendary alchemical treasure.

Ten thousand years ago, in that chaotic era when gods and demons coexisted, very few people were able to successfully refine it.

Although Lu Yuan's alchemy skills were impressive, there was still a huge gap between him and a ninth-level alchemist.

With his current strength, he wants to forge the Philosopher's Stone.

That's nothing short of a pipe dream; it's practically impossible.

“Master, in the magical world, for thousands of years, no one has been able to forge the Philosopher’s Stone.”

"Moreover, the Dreadlord is the lord of the abyss. If the plan fails, there will be no place for us in the entire magical world!"

Norton earnestly and tactfully offered his advice.

After being transformed, the servants of the natural disaster will be absolutely loyal to Lu Yuan, but they will still retain their independent personalities and thoughts.

and so.

Norton could die for Lu Yuan without hesitation, but he couldn't just stand by and watch him court death!
"you are wrong."

Lu Yuan dismissed Norton's advice.

He had considered these two reasons long before this.

the first.

The Dreadlord is merely an avatar; even if the plan fails, it won't pose a significant threat to me.

second.

With Lu Yuan's current alchemical skills, he indeed cannot refine the Philosopher's Stone.

But he has the entire original dark organization behind him, not just one person!

That's right.

Lu Yuan planned to deceive everyone, seize control of the organization, and use the original Dark Organization's soul-forging ritual to forge the Dreadlord into the Philosopher's Stone!
Norton was dumbfounded again, his mind practically spinning.

The original Dark Organization worshipped the Dreadlord as a god. If they knew about Lu Yuan's plan, they would be furious and wish they could scatter Lu Yuan's ashes.

How could she possibly help Lu Yuan?
wrong!

It's not impossible!

Norton's mind raced, and he finally understood Lu Yuan's thoughts.

Lu Yuan possesses the [Undead Catastrophe], so he can indeed do that!
because.

Dark alchemists are mostly eccentric, always keeping to themselves and disliking interacting with others.

Moreover, in order to avoid exposing their plans and attracting the attention of the Holy Light Empire, the original dark organization chose to break up into smaller groups, sending other members to the Bone Wasteland in batches.

This undoubtedly gave Lu Yuan an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

The original dark organization was indeed very powerful, enough to influence the will of the Holy Light Empire. But what happened when they were alone?

Lu Yuan only needs to defeat them one by one to secretly devour and control this behemoth.

Norton was increasingly alarmed by the idea, and found it increasingly feasible!

Next.

Lu Yuan wanted to know the exact whereabouts of each former member of the Dark Organization.

I've decided to utilize the [Undead Scourge] talent to build an unprecedented intelligence network!

[You have killed 10,000 Tier 1 Fire Lizards and obtained 10,000 Tier 1 Cataclysm Servants!]

[You have killed 100,000 Tier 1 Goldfish and obtained 100,000 Tier 1 Cataclysm Servants!]

[You have killed one million Tier 2 Night Ravens and obtained one hundred thousand Tier 2 Cataclysm Servants!]

[You have killed one billion Tier 1 Army Ants and obtained one billion Tier 1 Cataclysm Servants!]

……

Flying in the sky, running on the ground, swimming in the water...

These calamity servants, even after being killed, retain their original forms and can share a field of vision.

Under Lu Yuan's control.

They are scattered throughout the Bone Wasteland and the borders of the Kingdom of Ryan, infiltrating every corner.

Ants on the ground, mosquitoes and flies in the air, or even a falcon flying overhead could all be Lu Yuan's eyes!

Within a radius of a thousand miles.

Lu Yuan would know about any slightest movement immediately!

but.

Although Lu Yuan could share the vision of all the servants of the natural disaster.

But this also means that he must constantly deal with massive amounts of information from all directions.

It didn't take long.

Lu Yuan then felt powerless, experiencing for the first time a lack of mental energy.

This is because the Scourge is expanding too fast, and his soul strength is no longer keeping up.

Lu Yuan didn't have a good solution to this either.

After all, among all the elements, the spiritual element is the most difficult to improve.

Lu Yuan used to rely on absorbing the soul fire of skeletons to continuously improve his spiritual power.

Now, however, he is a seventh-order dark mage, his soul as vast and powerful as rivers and seas.

In contrast.

The Skeleton Soulfire is like a drop of water; its effect on him is negligible.

In fact.

Not only Lu Yuan, but almost all high-level mages and alchemists will encounter this problem.

Many ninth-tier Saint Magisters, despite having perfected their magical power, have already honed their strength and realm to the extreme.

However, due to insufficient soul strength, he could not take the final step even after a lifetime of hard work.

In the end, they could only wait to die in despair and resentment.

Moreover, after searching through all the books and scrolls, there were very few ways to improve one's mental strength.

Even the gods of various races from tens of thousands of years ago were helpless against this.

Finally, the gods of various races made an unexpected discovery.

Only the legendary Philosopher's Stone can disregard realm and strength, allowing the soul to undergo a qualitative leap!

That's why.

Lu Yuan became increasingly determined to complete the soul-forging plan!

three days later.

The scouts sent out to deal with natural disasters finally brought him good news.

Several people disguised themselves as a mercenary squad and secretly entered the border of the Kingdom of Ryan.

According to the information provided by Norton, it can be confirmed that there are three dark alchemists hidden among this group!

Lu Yuan attached great importance to this.

He personally selected 100,000 elite Scourge warriors from among millions of skeletons.

Then they would wait in the area that the mercenary squad was bound to pass through, and wait for their prey to come to them!
