…

In essence, the Bone Tomb didn’t differ greatly from before in terms of attributes. But after leveling up, the Tomb holds significant meaning for Dean McKenzie.

His “Summon Skeleton” ability can be directly enhanced.

Not only Dean McKenzie’s “Summon Skeleton,” but also the sublimation skills of the dogs under his command could be further enhanced.

As such, Dean McKenzie seized the opportunity, filling all the slots, and then initiated “Death Epiphany.”

Dean McKenzie’s “Summon Skeleton” is only on level 5. A single use of “Death Epiphany” is definitely not going to max it out.

But that’s not a problem. Dean McKenzie is rich!

Before entering the instance, Dean McKenzie already possessed 15.7 million gold coins.

Upon completion of the instance, his wealth had increased to an incredible degree.

After all, he’s the one who took over the City of Holy Light.

Though Dean McKenzie had blown most of the wealth of the City of Holy Light to smithereens with a Corpse Explosion, when he conquered the Holy Light Kingdom, the amount of wealth he acquired was still substantial.

After leaving some of this fortune for the Strong Grass’s development, the amount he brought with him amounted to 100 million gold coins.

Starting from a million, Dean McKenzie could definitely use it several times.

A million, two million, four million, eight million, sixteen million!

In a snap, Dean McKenzie had spent more than 31 million gold coins.

And the more he spent, the more addictive it became!

That is because Dean McKenzie recognized the chant effect of the Bone Tomb.

The more money he spent, the stronger the effect of restarting the Death Epiphany.

Indeed, money is a formidable power in any world!

And so, for the sixth time, Dean McKenzie put down his money, exceeding the total of all previous times with a total of 32 million gold!

[You spent 32 million gold coins and activated the Death Epiphany again!]

[Your skill “Summon Skeleton” and “Bone Summoning” have been upgraded to max level!]

[Your Wraith Servant (Doggy Eight) skill “Forced Decapitation” (Sublimation) upgraded to level 7, “Strong Stealth” (Sublimation) upgraded to level 7!]

[Your Wraith Servant (Doggy Seven) skill “Fearless Charge” (Sublimation) upgraded to level 7, “Final Strike” (Sublimation) upgraded to level 7!]

[Your Wraith Servant (Doggy Four) skill “Guardians Shield” (Sublimation) upgraded to level 8, “Absolute Defense” (Enhanced for the third time) upgraded to level 7!]

[Your Wraith Servant (Doggy Nine) skill “Death Arrow” (Sublimation) upgraded to level 7, “Rain of Ice Arrows” (Sublimation) upgraded to level 7!]

…

The skills of Dean McKenzie himself and those of his dogs have undergone a considerable improvement.

Of course, the improvements to the skills of Doggy Eight and the others were just minor compared to that of Dean McKenzie with “Summon Skeleton” and “Bone Summoning”.

With both of these skills maxed out, Dean McKenzie can finally use the Skill Fusion Scroll he had hoarded for years.

[You have used the item “Essential Skill Fusion Scroll.” Your skills “Summon Skeleton” and “Bone Summoning” have merged!]

[You acquired a new skill “Bone Summoning”!]

…

Skill: Bone Summoning (Origin)

Skill Level: Level 1

Skill Cost: 100 million Mana

Effect: Summon a 161-level bone wraith creature.

When using a template to summon, the quality of the creature being summoned will be one level higher than the template (up to an epic level).

Maximum number of skeletons that can exist at the same time: 121/500

Trait: Bone Sublimation (Origin) (Details omitted)

Bone Rebirth (Origin) (Details omitted)

…

As Dean McKenzie’s skills fused, the levels of all the skeletons under his command soared to level 160.

They couldn’t reach level 161 due to the fact that Dean McKenzie hadn’t made his Seven-turn yet, but their current level was already surprisingly high.

The levels are just one aspect of this fusion skill’s power.

Apart from the levels, the most significant improvement was the maximum number of skeletons that could exist at once increased to 500, and the second passive effect, when using a template to summon, the quality of the creature being summoned was higher than the template’s level.

The former is linked to the “Undying” trait of controlling skeletons.

Meaning that, unless killed by a power above epic level, these 500 skeletons won’t die.

The latter is even more terrifying, directly improving the quality level by one. Although there’s a cap, this is still quite a strong feature.

As Dean McKenzie reviewed the effects, he immediately remembered that he still had a batch of bone dragon templates on hold.

Without wasting any more time, he took out this batch of 333 rare bone dragon templates.

[Using the “Fragile Bone Dragon Template” for Bone Summoning, you successfully summoned a “Common Bone Dragon”!]

A system prompt resided.
