Chapter 376: Unknown Existence
The first elder of the Salko Temple had to be an S class extraordinary ability user. That was how he was able to serve as the first elder.
At that time, the ghost king’s strength was at the peak of a B rank. The battle was uneventful, and the ghost king was easily taken down by the first elder.
“I didn’t expect, I didn’t expect, a Grand Empire’s marshal actually turned into a ghost.”
The first elder of the Salko temple laughed out loud.
“Kill me if you want, but don’t destroy the sealing array. Once the array is broken, the creatures of the abyssal magic region will invade again.”
“Don’t worry! We know what to do!” After saying that, the first elder no longer paid attention to the ghost king. He began to command a few cloaked men to do their work.
These mysterious cloaked men were all mages who followed the army of the Empire. Some of them had even participated in the construction of the sealing array.
The Salko Temple had a bold plan. They were preparing to turn the ghost lair into a strange creature breeding base.
There were countless dead souls of the empire’s soldiers in the ghost lair. They were all sleeping underground.
If the sealing magic circle was converted into a ghost altar, it would be able to produce a steady stream of the aura of death.
After the spirits absorbed the aura of death, they would gradually transform into strange creatures.
Three days later, the construction of the ghost altar was completed.
The grand elder of the Salko Temple, together with more than ten cloaked men, began to cast spells. They summoned the souls of the sleeping soldiers.
After being summoned from their slumber, these soldiers’ souls were muddle-headed. They wandered aimlessly in the ghost lair.
“Rise!”
“Rise!”
“Rise!”
…
More than a dozen people finished casting their spells. The ghost altar was placed deep in the ghost lair, and it emitted mysterious waves.
The souls of the soldiers of the Empire were attracted. One by one, they walked into the space under the ghost altar.

In the underground space, more than a dozen mages stood in different positions. They were chanting the scriptures. This was the Curse of Eternal Damnation.
The sealing magic array in the underground space had been rearranged with magic array patterns. These array patterns could quickly absorb dark energy.
The Curse of Eternal Damnation was chanted. The Curse of Eternal Damnation communicated with the mysterious existence in the unknown space.
It opened its large mouth and sucked away countless amounts of dark energy. Then, it exhaled the aura of death.
The heroic spirits of the empire’s warriors were covered by this aura of death. They did not resist and transformed into strange creatures.
Then, these strange creatures were absorbed into the ghost altar.
The mysterious existence in the unknown space absorbed for ten days and ten nights before he burped in satisfaction.
This time, he was very full. After eating his fill, he had a good sleep, and he slept for thousands of years.
Seeing the mysterious unknown existence leave, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
The pressure was too great, and they could not withstand the pressure of the unknown existence.
This was even through the summoning array. If the unknown existence’s true body were to appear, the dozen or so of them would immediately die. They would be frightened to death
The difference in level was so great that the mysterious unknown existence did not even bother to look at them.
Fortunately, they had prepared a lot of dark energy. Otherwise, they would have been transformed into strange creatures.
No one on Blue Planet knew the name of this unknown existence. It was just that a summoning mage had unintentionally summoned him.
The mage had been scared out of his wits back then, and the summoning magic circle had disappeared in an instant.
The unknown existence who had wanted to have a good meal was forcefully sent away by the summoning magic circle.
After the death of the summoning magician, the other magicians sorted out his notes and discovered this mysterious summoning magic circle.

After sacrificing the lives of countless summoning magicians, they finally established a connection with the unknown existence.
The summoning magicians also knew the dangers of the unknown existnce. Every time they summoned the unknown existence, it had to be in a place where there was sufficient food.
If there was not enough food, then the unknown existence would devour the person who summoned it.
It could be said that the unknown existence was a double-edged sword. If used well, killing the enemy was like chopping melons and vegetables.
If it was not used well, the spell caster would definitely not be able to see the sunrise of the next day.
The first elder touched his forehead, which was full of sweat. He did not have much respect for this so-called unknown existence.
He was an S rank extraordinary ability user, and his powerful strength brought him great confidence.
It was not until he saw the unknown existence that he realized how ignorant he was. The first elder could not help but cast a grateful gaze at the cloaked mages.
The mysterious cloaked mages were also covered in cold sweat. The pressure was too great.
They did not notice the first elder’s gaze, but after the first elder had seen the unknown existence, and he changed his mind.
“Can we have a word?”
The cloaked mages looked unhappy. After the agreed work was done, they wanted to part ways.
If it were not for the fact that the Salko Temple had given them too much, they would not have accepted this mission.
“Don’t worry, I want to invite you to join the Salko Temple!”
The two cloaked mages in the lead rejected the great elder without thinking.
What kind of joke is this? Freedom was just too good.
Going to your temple to accept the restrictions, are you out of your mind?
Seeing the cloaked mages reject him, the first elder’s anger rose from the bottom of his heart.
He was an S rank extraordinary ability user, but these dozen mages only had the strength of A rank and A+ rank.
The gap between their ranks was too big. If the first elder wanted to do something to these mages, it would simply be too easy.
The first elder blocked the cloaked mages’ path of retreat.
“What do you want to do? Do you want to go back on your word?”
“Brothers, begin summoning the unknown existence!”
The cloaked mage who was leading the group began to chant the spell, and the other mages followed suit.
How could the first elder give these mages the chance to finish chanting the spell? If they finished chanting, there would only be one outcome for everyone.
They would all be eaten by an unknown existence.
“Ah!”
“Ah!”
“Uh!”
…
The two leading cloaked mages were quickly subdued by the first elder. The remaining ten A rank mages were completely unable to summon the unknown existence.
The crisis situation was easily resolved by the first elder.
One was black, and the other was white. The two cloaked mages’ feet left the ground. The first elder grabbed the cloaked mages by the throat, each with one hand.
“Cough!”
“Ugh!”
Sensing that the two cloaked mages were no longer struggling, the first elder let them go.
“What? The two of you have thought it through!”
“Now that you have been beaten to a pulp, you should change your minds!”
The two cloaked mages lifted the cloaks on their heads. There were two middle-aged mages, a man and a woman.
The first elder was not surprised. It was not rare for a middle-aged man to advance to A+ rank.
This proved that these two mages were very talented!
Such talented people had to be controlled by the Salko Temple.
No matter what method was used, only then would the temple become bigger and bigger.
“It doesn’t matter! You will submit. You don’t understand the greatness of the Salko Temple.”
“It would be your honor to join!”
“Next, I want you to create a special magic seal.”
