Were they holding strong grievances toward the others for not saving them when they died, and so they were dragging the others into the mud like vengeful spirits?

“Undead spirits?” the soldiers blurted out in a panic.

“I don’t think so. Even though humans might turn into Undead spirits when they die, the process normally takes some time. They won’t turn into aggressive Undead spirits so quickly!” Mo Fan shook his head.

These were not zombies in an American film, where the people who died would suddenly open their bloodshot eyes and bite others on the neck.

The relationship between dead bodies and Undead was like rice and wine.

It was necessary to seal the rice in an enclosed environment for fermentation. The swamp might be a perfect enclosed environment for Undead spirits to be born in, but it would take longer than a few seconds!

If the people who were dead for only a few minutes would turn into Undead that attacked nearby people, wouldn’t the world be ruled by the Undead by now?

The Undead could only be born under certain circumstances, given the right conditions and time.

The soldiers who were holding the feet of the others were very odd. Mo Fan had no idea what they were exactly.

Cory pointed at the swamp and shouted, “Look, the dead bodies are moving again!”

The dark blue lights were moving. The Life-Hanging Flies were attached to the dead bodies they were feeding on, clearly outlining the corpses with their overwhelming numbers.

The dead bodies in the swamp started gathering in a certain direction after they could not find any targets nearby.

It was like they were swimming under the mud. Over a hundred drowned soldiers soon gathered around an old tree.

The old tree sat above the swamp. The mud had already reached the middle of its trunk. Its branches had odd shapes, and were spread in the rain with wilted leaves dangling off them. The leaves were dancing like evil spirits as the wind was blowing.

The dead soldiers had gathered close to the tree’s roots. It was obvious that the tree’s roots covered a great area, at least a thousand square meters.

The strange thing was, the corpses did not scatter around the tree messily. They instead resembled the branches of a tree .

If Mo Fan did not think of the blue outlines as dead corpses. The Blue Fluorescent Bone Powder had actually formed the outline of a huge tree under the mud!

It would be an impressive sight if Mo Fan flipped the tree upside down!

“I know what it is!” Mo Fan declared with a frown.

“There’s something wrong with that tree,” Zhao Manyan agreed.

Mo Fan whispered into Mu Bai’s ear. Mu Bai nodded and slowly backed away.

Zhao Manyan seemed quite impatient, yet Mo Fan stopped talking halfway. No one could possibly remain calm after witnessing the deaths of the soldiers.

Lt. Colonel Mason and his men all had pale faces.

Something unknown was reaping the lives of their comrades, yet they could not find any explanation as to what was going on.

No one knew who would be dragged into the mud next. Most important, they would not rest in peace after they died!

“Order!”

Mo Fan’s eyes began to change. They were like black starry skies when he used the Chaos Element. A mysterious cold light was glowing deep inside them.

Mo Fan had yet to awaken the Superpower of the Chaos Element, but his eyes would transform whenever he used the Chaos and Space Elements.

Dimensional Magic mainly relied on a person’s Will. Focusing and paying full attention were the best ways to control it.

“Overturn!”

Mo Fan wrapped the area of the old tree with his Will and gained control of its order.

The swamp was huge, and Mo Fan’s Chaos Element’s area of effect was extremely limited. However, after learning where the enemy was, he just had to focus his magic on the area around the tree. He did not have trouble manipulating the order of that area.

The surroundings of the tree started changing. The rules in the area had been modified by Mo Fan’s Chaos Magic.

The rain was the first to fall in the opposite direction, rising into the sky instead of falling to the ground.

The wind that was blowing changed direction, too. It was blowing in random directions, like headless flies.

As stronger Chaos Magic descended, the swamp under the tree began behaving strangely too.

Water started rising into the sky like the rain. The thick mud followed, and rose into the sky in lumps, as if they were no longer bound by gravity.

The Domain of Order: Overturn!

The soldiers’ eyes widened. They stared at the strange sight with wide eyes. It was like a film being played backward.

“Forneus has blessed us again!” Lt. Colonel Mason almost dropped to his knees.

Mo Fan almost lost control of his Chaos Magic when he heard those words. He took a deep breath and continued to influence the swamp with his Chaos Magic.

More lumps of mud were rising into the sky, revealing the terrifying sight under the mud to the soldiers.

The soldiers gasped when the mud under the tree had been cleared away.

The old tree turned out to be a demon!

Most plants had roots under the ground and soil. The roots would absorb nutrients under the ground to sustain the plants’ life.

However, it was the opposite for the old tree. The branches above the surface were its roots. Its trunk, branches, and leaves were under the mud!

Its trunk was stuck into the mud. When the mud disappeared, its trunk, which was made of white bone, was exposed to the air!

Its branches were made of white bone too. The bones had even connected into joints, allowing them to move around freely.

The branches reached throughout the swamp like complicated tunnels under a city.

The leaves were the worst. At the end of the branches were leaves shaped like claws.

Huge bones as the trunk, joints as the branches, and claws as the leaves!

The tree was basically made up of skeletons!

The claws were cracking like the rustling of leaves while the branches were moving wildly, just like human arms. The soldiers almost fainted from shock after seeing its true appearance.

“What the Hells is that thing!?” Zhao Manyan almost vomited again.

Not only did it have a disgusting appearance, it was intimidating to look at!
