Sam felt like his body has strength that was never there before. He could climb the well easily and for a few minutes, he couldn't even maintain balance and control his strength properly. He even fell back a couple of times.
When he came up, he saw all the Consummate cultivators and even the Vampire King id rolling on the ground.
The whole area is full of red, green, and yellow vapors. Except for the Vampire King, no one else has a fully intact proper body, they are just an hour away from disappearing from their existence.
Sam walked out of the well and looked at them with a cold gaze.
"There is still a week for a month. You are done in faster than before." He spoke and walked towards the Vampire King and looked at him in the eyes.
"How does it feel to be helpless in front of something that was controlled and executed by someone else? Particularly someone you looked down on so much that you didn't even put them in your eyes. A person belonging to a race that was only a form of food for you.
I really wonder how you feel."
Sam's words made the Vampire King so frustrated that he wanted to kill him with a single strike, but as soon as he channeled his energy the vines' grasp tightened and absorbed everything.
"I never thought my vines could work on a person whose cultivation is beyond Consummate stage. You are my first subject thank you."
"Do you know how many people you have killed? It is a war, so fight with soldiers and the kings, what did the citizens do to you?" The Vampire King said as he spat coldly.
Sam looked at him up and down and asked.
"How many humans have you killed? How many humans have you consumed from your childhood? You might have even killed your mother with your birth as the probability of the human woman giving birth to the vampire, dying is extremely high.
How many dwarves have you killed in the war?
How many Minotaurs and Orcs have you used and made them lose their lives? What do they anything to do with you and your realm?"
The Vampire King's face changed.
"There is nothing fair in this world and everyone's hands are stained with the blood of innocents. You told me to kill the soldiers, but are all the soldiers guilty? More than half of them are innocent and in fact noble because they are only doing their job in the most righteous way possible.
Then what are you for sending them to death for your stupid decisions?
Stop being Hypocritical.
When it comes to my own survival and the survival of my friends, i won't care if a hundred or a thousand individuals die in the middle of all of it, I will ensure their survival.
It is always which choice you want to make, I will always choose mine over all the creatures in this realm.
As for the guilt trap you are laying, why don't you try thinking why this happened? Why did I even become your enemy, why did I even bring these vines here? Why did I attack you? Why did I take these emergency measures which I didn't even use from the start?"
The Vampire King really started thinking and Sam continued.
"It's all on you. You brought this upon yourselves. You took a gamble in invading the banished realm and you lost the soldiers then went there, you took a gamble by sending troops after me in the forest of dying, you lost the troops, you took a gamble to destroy my life with this little well, but now you lost everything.
Don't blame me for your own mistakes."
Sam said and walked away. After listening to Sam, The Vampire King just stopped resisting. He lost all the hope and he really felt guilty about all of this.
This is all happened because of their greed, their pride, and their ambitions. The three kings are the ones responsible as all of this is a consequence of their decision.
Sam took out the Harbinger and went away. He is not wearing his feather coat as it was damaged by Hou Yi and he had yet to repair it.
He is fully covered in blood as he zoomed past the towns and cities of the Vampire territory. There is not a place that was devoid of vines, all the vampires are fighting for their survival.
There is very little they can do and very few places can hide them from these vines.
In just three months, the Vampires who are at the top of the food chain in this world became strays.
The situation for the remaining two races is not too different. They at least have their top dogs alive but most of the underdogs are already dead.
Sam didn't even dare to look at the wrist screen at the moment, he knew the points will be too many. He didn't ask about the scoring of the Consummate realm cultivators when had the chance, but he knew it would be a lot, so he just let it be. He would look at it after he figured out what happened to his body.
At least for now, he is not feeling anything with it except for the superior abilities and instincts.
He entered the forest of dying and reached the Bat cave.
His friends are in a meeting to discuss something as they gathered together and they felt Sam's presence they were dumbfounded for a second before cheering out loud.
"You are earlier than expected, we almost wanted to use the final destructive step to deal with all the creatures."
"Well, it is good that I came early, if you did that nothing will be left in this undead realm except for the death energy."
"Yeah, it is good that you came. Otherwise, we would have had a hard time finding a way to hide somewhere after activating that. We couldn't find any at the moment."
They made some small talk as if nothing happened at all and Sam finally said.
"We will stay for this week and leave this place after that. But before that, I have to take a look at my own condition and examine my body, so tomorrow launch the golden rocket. This realm has suffered enough damage and we already achieved our own objective. It is unnecessary to kill so many people since I escaped."
After that, he took a seat nearby and started examining his own body.
The first thing he did is to look at his spiritual core.
And he was relieved to find out that the spiritual core is okay. There are no significant changes except that he felt that the spiritual core can now directly absorb the energy from his blood. Generally, the energy has to be directed to it and even if it isn't directed even the spiritual core itself will absorb them through the nearest meridian network.
Absorbing it directly from the blood is something he didn't know. After that, he started checking his body.
The muscle fibers are denser than ever and they are extremely compact. The blood is more energetic and his skin tone changed.
He is already a bit fair for a man and now he can only be called pale.
His hair has a faint blood-red hue.
He could see that he didn't need as much oxygen as before. He definitely changed and he is no longer a human at all. His aura has also changed if not for the fact that his beast auras still suppress this vampire aura he would have been easily considered as an undead creature.
The only thing he is thankful for is that there is no change in his meridian network.
His cultivation level and cultivation method are all safe.
While he is trying to figure out a way to adjust to his new body in the next week, the rest of the group decided to deal with the task they were given.
They took the special pollen they placed in the formations within the cave and left it in different directions as they fired different rockets filled with this special pollen.
This time the growth of vines is extremely high, but they didn't go after the death energy and the creatures, instead, these vines went after the original vines and the different vapors that are in the air.
But they are not completely restricting them neither are they staying alive and consuming everything. They are attracted to these vines and both of them seemed to have neutralized as they merged.
Soon, the density of the colored vapors decreased rapidly and even the density of the vines reduced.
Philip even dropped more pollen of this kind in the Volcano and reduced the traffic of the spreading vines.
But from the looks of it, there is nothing much they can do to the volcanic region. It is no go zone for all the undead creatures.
The Wights and Ghouls are relieved when they saw the reducing dangers and these changes also happened rapidly.
While they are like that a new message spread as the team members yelled over the cities and towns.
"For the Kings and nobles of the Undead Realm. We hope that this would be a lesson to you and stay put in your own realm. No matter how powerful you are, you will be vulnerable for something, and these vines which you are vulnerable to are easy to control in hands of Sam.
He can make them come and make them go whenever he wants, it would be good if you call quits now, but if you want to try you can try, but you better be prepared that there would be no mercy next time."
