Chapter 575: The Appearance of the Five Major Bosses

Donald wasn’t worried at all; instead, he was secretly pleased. The more powerful the void creatures that came, the greater the rewards for him—as long as they didn’t exceed a certain limit!
He turned to the three goddesses and asked, “I don’t know much about monsters like Worm Mages. Do they have any weaknesses?”
Eurynia, the Magic Goddess who knew the most about this, replied, “Once formed, these creatures possess the strength of legendary mages. The stronger their evil will, the more of their pre-death magical abilities they can retain. But overall, Worm Mages still belong to the category of negative-energy creatures akin to liches—they are beings between undead and spirits, similar to semi-corporeal void creatures. However, Worm Mages rely mainly on negative energy and are better at controlling powerful and eerie undead. To deal with them, divine positive energy attacks are the best; lightning and fire, which counter negative energy and dark evil forces, can also cause severe damage!”
After hearing this, Donald immediately knew who would be the best candidate to fight these terrifying monsters.
“Uther, since you wield the power of holy light, purify these wretched monsters!”
Uther immediately obeyed, silently appearing in the direction from which the Worm Mage was approaching.
The twisted and evil Worm Mage had lost all positive thoughts from its past life, leaving only hatred, self-loathing, and resentment toward the living. When it encountered a being radiating divine positive energy, it felt deep hatred and anger, wanting to destroy it completely.
So, the Worm Mage immediately unleashed its guardians—two Killing Zombie Monsters.
Unlike zombies or liches, these Killing Zombie Monsters resembled zombies but were far more combat-effective. Their strength was already at its peak, and in terms of physical combat power, even ordinary legendary sword saints couldn’t match them. After all, no matter how much a living person’s body was strengthened, it couldn’t compare to a hardened, mutated corpse.
Yet, faced with the two emaciated, mantis-like Killing Zombie Monsters, Uther, wielding the Sword of the Oath of Victory, felt no fear at all. Instead, the enemies seemed hesitant and reticent.
It wasn’t until their master screamed in anger from behind that they transformed into streaks of light and attacked their target.

Uther swung two sword slashes infused with the power of holy light, driving back the ambushing killing zombies. Soon, his entire body began to emit a sacred flame, which quickly enveloped his weapon as well. At the same time, an area of thousands of feet around Uther was filled with divine power.

The expansion of the holy light realm made the two killing zombies feel as if they were naked people dancing in fire, with nowhere to stand—any slight mistake would result in them being burned by the holy light brimming with positive energy and divine will.

Furious at his subordinates’ inability to attack, the Worm Mage let out a silent scream from its terrifying face composed of countless maggots. A spell imbued with fear energy formed a huge, distorted face made of illusory energy in front of it.

This was the powerful spell of the Terrifying Face, usable only by those who possessed the primal forces of evil and filth—extremely wicked beings. It was a powerful illusionary spell that acted on the soul level, subjecting the target to endless horrors until they became lost in the illusion and ultimately died from their own fear.

This was a common tactic used by the Worm Mage to hold off enemies who served as defenders or melee fighters. Often, even before the battle ended, some enemies with weaker willpower would die under this terrifying spell.

However, against Uther, who had grasped the Heart of Holy Light and possessed an unshakable will, this spell had almost no effect. Upon contact, it was purified and counteracted by the ideas of holiness and justice contained within the holy light.

Seeing his signature spell lose its usual effectiveness, the Worm Mage screamed again and unleashed two powerful negative-energy spells designed to strike and weaken distant targets: the Ray of Deathly Cold and the Flame of Withering.

These energy-based attack spells had an advantageous effect on the Worm Mage. The Ray of Deathly Cold, with its corrosive and cold properties from negative energy, was self-explanatory, while the Flame of Withering, with its immense explosive power, was ideal for targeting large areas like the realm. The originally dim gray flames seemed weak, like a candle in the wind, seemingly ready to go out at the slightest touch. But when they encountered the holy light realm, they erupted with tremendous force, like ignited gunpowder, along with a unique corrosive effect.

The powerful legendary spells dealt some damage to the holy light realm, causing it to be slightly damaged. This gave the two killing zombies an opportunity to enter the realm and attempt to approach its master, Uther.

Uther also seemed somewhat overwhelmed on his own, yet he persisted in dealing with the worm mage’s distant attacks while fighting against the killing zombie at the same time. In another direction, the God of Adventure and Seafaring had followed Donald’s orders and was now battling the massive Destroyer Sand Worm. For the Destroyer Sand Worm, a semi-earthy elemental creature, Ciri, who mastered the domains of the sea and water, was undoubtedly a strong opponent. Although water and earth were not as incompatible as fire and water, they were still elements that counteracted each other; the winner would depend on which side had greater absolute strength. With her semi-divine power and the strength of a true artifact, Ciri was clearly at an advantage over the Destroyer Sand Worm, which had only combat instincts and little intelligence. As a legendary semi-earthy void creature, the chaotic and evil Destroyer Sand Worm might appear huge and clumsy, but it was highly agile in the void and could move at lightning speed when attacking—enough to swallow even a semi-divine warrior if they were not careful. Surely no one wanted to experience the environment of its extremely strong stomach acid! Ciri utilized the delays and barriers inherent to the sea and water domains to hold back the massive Destroyer Sand Worm, preventing it from approaching the realm of the gods. Looking at the battlefield, aside from the fight between Charlie and the Destroyer Giant Centipede, where it seemed as though Charlie was constantly dodging but actually held a clear advantage, the other two battles would take some time to resolve. Meanwhile, the remaining two legendary monsters were approaching the realm of the gods, with another group of non-legendary void creatures following closely behind them. Although these legendary void monsters shared the same goal—devouring the newly established realm of the gods—they still distrusted one another. Otherwise, if they had united against their enemies, Charlie and the others wouldn’t have been able to handle them so easily. The lower-tier void creatures following behind the legendary monsters feared these bosses greatly. After all, it was not uncommon for void creatures to devour each other, and these weaker ones were usually just snacks for the stronger ones when they couldn’t find food. Seeing the last two legendary monsters appear, Donald smiled at Amps behind him and said, “It’s your turn and mine now!”
