Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage-Novel

Jia and Alion knew that the Nether Realm was dangerous. However, it was only now that they realized truly how dangerous it was. They were already weak while their enemies were strong here.

What was worse was that there were only three of them while the other side had entire clans behind them with seemingly inexhaustible strength. Moreover, the place where they could find the souls were also heavily guarded, making it almost impossible to sneak inside.

Jia didn't even know what Blood Magic was. She could understand why the Undead were strong. They didn't need spiritual strength. They were half dead after all. As for the Beast Clan, they were born with incredible physical strength so it wasn't anything out of place.

It was the humans of the Nether Realm that seemingly used the Blood Magic. According to Gabriel's plan, the chances of them coming across Blood Magic users were close to none. However, she still wanted to be ready for the scenario.

"What is Blood Magic?" Jia asked, frowning.

"Using Blood as a medium of strength," Gabriel answered. "This Realm lacks the spiritual aura that others use. However, what it doesn't lack is Blood."

"The Ancient battlefield of this place has been basked with the blood of many incredible beings in the past. The Blood Magicians use their own blood as sacrifices to summon the ancient warriors from the forgotten era that had died in this Realm and had their blood absorbed by this place."

Jia already knew that Blood Magic wasn't special. However, as she heard more about it, she realized that it was more than just a little special! The Blood Magicians were somewhat similar to Summoners! However, they didn't summon beasts!

They used their Blood as the sacrificial source to summon ancient beings to fight for them if needed.

"Since they're Summoners, they should be quite weak personally. It shouldn't be hard to kill them if we ignore their summon and directly kill them," Jia thought out loud. With her speed, she didn't think that the Blood Magicians could be a threat to her if she didn't give them a chance.

Only the Nether Beast Clan was worth her concern if she came across them. Their physical defense was said to be very strong after all.

Seeing Jia look down on the Blood Mages, Gabriel could only shake his head. There was a saying that people with narrow world views often failed to see the profound secrets. Jia was a living example.

"If you underestimate the Blood Mages, you might find yourself at a loss. There's a reason that whoever tries to come to this Realm died. And that had nothing to do with the Beast Clan or the Undead. It's because of the Blood Mages..."

"Because of the Blood Mages?" Jia asked, slightly taken aback. "You mean the human clans here are more dangerous than the other clans?"

"I told you that they can summon. But if that was all, they wouldn't be called the Royals of the Nether Realm," Gabriel casually answered. "The absolute Ruler of the Nether Realm was also from the Blood Clan the last time I was here."

Jia rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache. She had been trying to be optimistic. However it was as if Gabriel didn't even want them to have hope of getting out of this place alive.

One after another, he kept giving them blow after blow. Just when they prepared themselves for one danger that he talked about, he tossed out information about something even more dangerous and it kept continuing.

At the moment, it felt less like a rescue mission and more like a suicide mission. Unfortunately, they were already here and there was no way back. She could only try to keep faith in her abilities.

"Why is the Blood Clan so dangerous? Aren't they also humans? How can they scare even the Upper Realm beings from stepping foot in this place. Even if there is no recovery in this place, it shouldn't intimidate them that much. How did the Blood Clan become the overlord of this place?"

"I heard that it has something to do with the ancient being who died in this place, changing the entire Realm into the realm of death that we know today. Is it true?" Alion also inquired. His knowledge was also very limited in this matter.

"How should I know? I didn't talk to anyone from the Blood Clan. However, I did hear some stories myself. As for how believable those stories are, I am not sure." Gabriel nodded.

"According to the legends, after the ancient being died in this place, this entire Realm became a cursed place where the Spiritual Strength started dying."

"It was an era of great change for this place. According to stories, it was also around that same time that a human managed to get a single blood droplet from that Ancient Being's body before its body was destroyed."

"It's said that the human used that blood droplet. Not only did it increase his strength immensely, almost to the level of gods, but it also gave him some inheritance from that dead Ancient Being."

Even Gabriel was intrigued by the stories that he heard about this Realm. Even in the era where he had infiltrated the Nether Realm last time, the Overlord of this realm was comparable to the Ruler of the Upper Realm.

However, that person didn't reveal himself last time he was here. Gabriel didn't know why that person didn't try to stop him. He wasn't even sure if he could've managed to leave if that person had shown himself since he had already exhausted all his strength at that time.

Gabriel knew that if that person had shown himself, he would've had no choice but to cast a World Level Spell in this place which was his last resort.

"The Inheritance of the dead ancient being? If that person's death caused this entire Nether Realm to turn into a desolate wasteland, then just how strong must he be? How strong must his inheritance be?" Jia's eyes revealed an envious gaze for the first time.

She couldn't help but be jealous of the Ancestor of the Nether Blood Clan for receiving that inheritance, jumping from being a nobody straight to being an overlord.

"You don't have to guess. The inheritance was supposedly a skill that allows them to absorb blood from the living beings that they kill. In that way, they can steal the strength of others," Gabriel lazily answered.

"That's why, in the era after that, anyone who entered this Realm was hunted and killed by the Blood Clan who were taught this skill by their Patriarch. The Upper Realm tried to have their revenge."
