It was no coincidence!
Fang Heng!
He must have been behind it!
But how did he manage it?
Was the explosion of the warm sun gemstone part of his plan as well!?
Now the situation had reversed; they were the ones who were anxious!
They needed to defeat Fang Heng before their mental strength was depleted!
Otherwise, all their efforts would be in vain!
However, with the weakening of the holy brilliance spell, the Lickers had an opportunity to exert their influence and get closer to the Holy Realm team to create disturbances.“Heh.”
From a distance, Fang Heng, seeing the warm sun gemstone fail, let out a cold laugh and pulled out a bottle of Red Bull from his backpack, gulping it down.
With the battle imminent, he needed to replenish his energy.
Having already vomited from too much coffee, he switched to Red Bull.
After downing a whole liter of Red Bull, Fang Heng glanced at the ‘Well-Energized’ status in his game mission bar, slapped his cheeks, and looked toward Karolina and her team.
Let’s go!
Time to fight!
In his Death God form, Fang Heng swung his death scythe again toward the periphery of the Holy Realm team.
With a flash!
“Boom!!!”
Darkness exploded in front of the Holy Realm knight!
The effect was somewhat better than before.
“Fang Heng!”
The Holy Realm knight, having blocked the attack with his shield, thrust his spear in retaliation, but Fang Heng had already retreated far into the shaded area, enveloped by the aura of the shady line.
Continue!
Wear down your holy power!
Fang Heng understood clearly that in the shaded domain, not only could the Holy Court not restore their mental strength, but they were also losing it every second!
He was not in a hurry.
Each Purifier of the Holy Realm was a Boss-level entity in a mid-tier game world.
Patience was required!
Karolina watched as Fang Heng continued to flicker around the periphery, trying several times to strike directly at him.
Unfortunately, Fang Heng’s movements were like those of a phantom; he always evaded with a swift retreat, making him impossible to catch!

Unfortunately, Fang Heng’s movements were like those of a phantom; he always evaded with a swift retreat, making him impossible to catch!
Even when she finally managed to wound him, pursuing him was futile as a horde of Lickers surged forward to provide cover.
In just a few minutes, Fang Heng was again active and disruptive on the periphery.
Reluctantly, Karolina had no choice but to change her strategy. She decided first to clear out the Lickers and then focus on dealing with Fang Heng.
“Clear out the Lickers first!”
“Understood!”
Not far off, Tan Shuo and Li Shaoqiang, observing the intense battle ahead, downed a bottle of coffee each.
Just as Fang Heng had said, the Holy Realm’s forces were temporarily stalled!
The next phase was endurance.
They needed to see if they could outlast the Holy Realm and wear them down!
At least Mr. Fang seemed quite confident.
Given the current state of the battle, they certainly couldn’t join in yet, so they stayed nearby, waiting.
It wasn’t their turn to intervene just yet.
…
The battle within the grotto lasted over an hour.
The number of Lickers had decreased significantly.
Fang Heng quickly withdrew from the combat zone and glanced at the game hints.
Including the proliferators, the originally prepared ten thousand Lickers had been reduced to just over five hundred by the Holy Realm forces.
The Holy Realm’s troops were indeed tenacious!
Upon closer inspection, the holy power enveloping the Holy Realm was noticeably dimmed.
It seemed they were also experiencing significant depletion.
But it wasn’t yet to the point of serious injury.
Further attrition was needed.
“Well then…”
Fang Heng lowered his head and quickly opened the character attribute panel.
[Hint: The player currently meets the requirements to level up to Level 43 (200 Tier 1 rainbow crystals). Would you like to level up?]
“Level up!”
[Hint: The player’s level has increased to Level 43. Due to the player’s talent skill, the player gains an additional 3,092 zombie clones.]
[Hint: The player requires 600 Tier 1 rainbow crystals to level up to Level 44.]
“Tsk… Not enough…”
Fang Heng quietly shook his head.
Tier 1 rainbow crystals were not easy to obtain; they only dropped from killing certain elite tree spirit tribe members and tree spirit elders.
Even though Fang Heng had recently cleared out the three major tree spirit clans, he had only accumulated a little over 400 Tier 1 rainbow crystals.
He could only level up once.
The 3,000-plus ordinary zombie clones gained from the level-up were limited and insufficient against the Holy Realm forces.
So he would need to use that!
Fang Heng opened his game mission panel and accessed the three holy spirit crystals he had obtained from extinguishing the Death Knight’s will.
Holy spirit crystals were high-level upgrade items that could be exchanged for a large number of rainbow crystals.
They were indeed very precious.
But who cared?
He had kept them precisely for emergencies!
Time to use them!
[Hint: Using 1 Tier 1 holy spirit crystal converts to 5,000 Tier 1 rainbow crystals.]
[Hint: The player now meets the requirements for leveling up to Level 44. Would you like to proceed with the level-up?]
“Level up!”
[Hint: The player’s level has increased to Level 44. Due to the player’s talent skill, the player gains an additional 4,683 zombie clones.]
[Hint: The player now requires 1,000 Tier 1 rainbow crystals to level up to Level 45. Do you want to continue?]
“Continue leveling up!”
[Hint: The player’s level has increased to Level 45. Due to the player’s talent skill, the player gains an additional 5,619 zombie clones.]
[Hint: The player now requires 3,500 Tier 1 rainbow crystals to level up to Level 46. Do you want to proceed?]
“Level up again!”
[Hint: The player’s level has increased to Level 46. Due to the player’s talent skill, the player gains an additional 6,743 zombie clones.]
[Hint: The player now requires 50 Tier 2 rainbow crystals to level up to Level 47.]
Still not enough!
At this point, he decided to level up further—right to the top!
Fang Heng exchanged the remaining two holy spirit crystals for Tier 2 rainbow crystals to continue his level-up.
[Hint: Using 2 Tier 1 holy spirit crystals converts to 1,000 Tier 2 rainbow crystals.]
“More! Continue!”
[Hint: The player’s level has increased to Level 47. Due to the player’s talent skill, the player gains an additional 8,092 zombie clones.]
[Hint: The player now requires 250 Tier 2 rainbow crystals to level up to Level 48.]
[Hint: The player’s level has increased to Level 48. Due to the player’s talent skill, the player gains an additional 9,710 zombie clones.]
[Hint: The player now requires 500 Tier 2 rainbow crystals to level up to Level 49.]
[Hint: The player’s level has increased to Level 49. Due to the player’s talent skill, the player gains an additional 11,652 zombie clones.]
[Hint: The player now requires 2,500 Tier 2 rainbow crystals to level up to Level 50.]
[Hint: The player’s zombie Clone count is now 69,911.]
The growth had plateaued.
After consuming all three holy spirit crystals, Fang Heng’s level had risen to Level 59.
He couldn’t level up any further.
He had gained a total of seven levels!
Looking back, the rewards for leveling up were indeed substantial!
His zombie clones had increased from around 20,000 to about 70,000, adding over 50,000 new zombie clones!
More than double!
In an instant, the ground around Fang Heng churned, and a mass of zombie clones erupted from the roiling earth!
The awakened zombie clones surged toward the Holy Realm forces.
The massive, continuously regenerating horde of zombies filled the entire cavern passage, leaving no room to spare!
The Holy Realm forces, witnessing this overwhelming wave, were momentarily stunned.
