Chapter 448: Vol 13: Liches Using The Graveyard Curse
Just as she was watching the liches doing their task, Rinobak appeared suddenly from far. Maya looked at him with doubt, as she knew he wouldn't come here personally without good reason.
Rinobak wasn't alone, as there were others with him, some of her cultivators that she sent from before to roam the whole gate world.
From the stern look over their faces, she knew something bad had happened, and if even her cultivators couldn't face it, that meant this wasn't an easy matter at all.
"What happened for you to come here personally?" May asked directing her question towards Rinobak, who bowed his head at first before explaining:
"There are two things actually my lady, and as they are very grave, I saw it was appropriate for me to be here and deliver you this news."
Maya looked with seriousness towards him and then to all of her men, they all had gloomy faces like it was the end of the world.
"Speak up, what happened to make you all be like this?"
Rinobak took the responsibility of delivering the news to her as he explained:
"The dragon rider cultivators roamed the whole world, and they managed to spot certain strongholds where cultivators were living."
"This doesn't look like bad news at all," Maya commented.
"This is just the first news, my lady, the second piece of news they got was the presence of many demon gates opening at these strongholds," Rinobak explained.
"Do you mean these strongholds are facing destruction from the demons?" Maya asked in confusion.

"No, it's the opposite, these gates delivered aid for these strongholds," Rinobak replied.
"I'm a little confused here, why would the demons help cultivators here?" Maya asked.
"It's not that simple, as these gates don't bring demons, they bring people, cultivators that are stronger than the existing ones in these strongholds," Rinobak explained.
Maya was already familiar with the idea of these demon gates, as she was there watching Ibro dealing with the alternate universe and its people. This time, it seemed the demons used gates that were linked to the destroyed cultivation universe.
But even when she thought about it, she didn't find anything bad about it, as she expressed her own thoughts:
"If this was true, then it's good news not bad ones, as these people had suffered from the tyranny of demons and they would join our cause and fight side by side with us."
Rinobak exchanged silent glances with the cultivators around him, as one of them said with dejected tone:
"It's the opposite, my lady, as these people looked like they were serving the demons. They controlled these strongholds and used them to control all other cultivators in the worlds related to these strongholds.
Each stronghold has something that resembles a teleportation cloud, but it's more like a portal in the game world. throughout these portals, they moved freely between worlds and started to move huge numbers of cultivators to here."
Maya understood the gravity of the situation, if she had a god-like ability as Ibro, then she wouldn't be afraid facing the whole universe as Ibro did, but she had minimal resources right now.
She couldn't risk an open war with countless realms like this. She understood why Rinobak described the situation as disastrous, and she knew it would be very hard to deal with them from now on. as she was immersed in her own thoughts, Rinobak added:
"They are still preparing as they are in the process of amassing armies. They made the armies fight the demon armies, and those weaklings were killed on the spot amidst the huge battles."
"They wanted to form an army made entirely of elites hmmm, that's a classical thinking of a cultivator not a demon or a fiend," Maya muttered slowly to herself while she looked away towards the distance.
As she did so, she happened to lay eyes on the far liches who were starting to summon graveyards. This was her first time seeing something like this, so the scene attracted her attention and aroused her curiosity.
The liches used the death energy in this world to form a 500 meters wide graveyard which began to release countless skeletons without pause. Maya's eyes shone brightly as her face started to change from anxiety to calmness, and gradually she began to be excited.
She flew rapidly towards the nearest lich, as she asked even before she land on the ground:
"Tell me, if you were in a world with a thicker death aura, would this curse have a different effect?"
The lich was surprised by the sudden appearance of Maya, but it replied humbly:
"That's correct, my lady, as the effect of our curses is directly related to the density and purity of the death aura."
Maya's excitation turned into a smile, a smile that began to be bigger until it became a laugh.
"Gather up and follow me immediately," Maya ordered with a spirited tone.
The sound of Maya was very loud, so all liches listened to her command and looked towards her in question, while the nearest lich asked that question to her:
"Aren't we going to establish graveyards here, my lady?"
"No, I have a better place for all of you to use your curse there, believe me, it's a paradise for you all, hahahaha," Maya said these words with big laughs as she flew again in the air with slower speed than before, "Stop what you are doing and follow me now."
She then led all the liches towards the place of the teleportation cloud, where Rinobak and the rest of her cultivators were standing waiting for her orders.
"Listen to me carefully, make these liches transform the whole basin into a great graveyard. When you have enough army, push the front line with the demons forward.
The liches are permitted to establish graveyards at any place you manage to free from demons, even if it was an inch or a mile, I don't care, just turn the whole world into a great graveyard. guard the liches well, or else your lives will be the cost of losing a single one of them."
Rinobak was confused about Maya's actions, so he asked:
"My lady, will this be enough to face that imminent crisis?"
"Don't worry, if they plan to create an elite army, then I will also do the same. Let's see who is stronger, their cultivators or my skeletons."
