**Chapter 1285: The Art of Dominion, Awakening Intelligence**
The animal hide recorded the reason for the skeleton general's expedition. When his master was engaged in a life-and-death battle with a formidable enemy, the six realms, led by Heaven, simultaneously rebelled. He went to suppress the rebellion but returned in failure. Knowing he might face unforeseen circumstances, he left behind a spell.
According to him, this spell was personally bestowed by his master, but it took him many years of practice to fully master it. If he died, he hoped his successor could grasp this spell. The spell was called "Dominion!"
He wasn't worried about the spell leaking because it was specifically for the undead army. Even if others obtained it, without the corresponding undead army, the spell would be useless. Through his message, Lin Moyu also understood one thing. Not only him, but even this cemetery was bestowed by his master.
Lin Moyu guessed correctly; the cemetery was indeed a military camp. The entire ancient tomb was actually a mobile fortress. The key to controlling this ancient tomb lay in the nearby undying flame. The undying flame was the core of the entire cemetery.
"Dominion!"
Lin Moyu carefully studied this spell. The more he studied, the more astonished he became. This spell was completely different from those in the Great World. To use Dominion, one first needed to designate a leader. Then, the corresponding undead army would be assigned to the leader, forming an independent legion.
Dominion was not cast by Lin Moyu but by the designated leader. This leader could command the entire legion's power, gathering the legion's strength to exert far beyond individual combat power.
"How similar it is to the Lich General's spell."
"However, the Lich General doesn't have the ability to gather the legion's power, more like the Skeleton King."
Lin Moyu pondered, according to the spell, he could create one legion after another. Then, in battle, he only needed to give orders to the legion leader, and the rest would be automatically completed by the leader. Because the legion leader had intelligence, they would think independently and choose the most suitable combat method. Moreover, the legion leader was extremely loyal, with no possibility of betrayal.
Lin Moyu was eager to try this spell. "If the spell works as well as described, I can completely divide the undead army into independent legions, each with its own duties, even forming battle formations."
"Yes, battle formations!"
Lin Moyu's eyes lit up, thinking of the demon's battle formations. Despite having a data advantage and far superior individual strength, he was helpless once the demons formed battle formations. The Dominion spell gave him hope.
Lin Moyu immediately memorized the spell's usage method. The hide mentioned that Dominion only worked on the undead army and required the undying flame. He had both.
"First step, awaken the skeleton!"
Lin Moyu first thought of the skeleton god warriors. As his level increased, the basic skeleton god warriors had long been unused. The enemies he faced were too strong, and the skeleton god warriors were inadequate. So, he first chose the skeleton god warriors.
A skeleton god warrior appeared before Lin Moyu. Following the method recorded on the hide, he ignited the undying flame. Simultaneously, Lin Moyu split a wisp of his soul into the undying flame, making it more spiritual. Then, he pressed the undying flame onto the skeleton's head.
The skeleton's eyes glowed red, and its soul flame flickered violently. The undying flame quickly enveloped the skeleton, burning fiercely. Lin Moyu constantly sensed the skeleton god warrior's condition and found a trace of intelligence in its soul flame.
"It's effective!"
Lin Moyu was overjoyed. Awakening intelligence and bestowing wisdom was a high-level task, and he, a mere True God, could achieve it. He was clearly overjoyed. With a soft sound, the skeleton god warrior exploded on the spot, leaving broken limbs and bones scattered.
Then, the undying necromancy spell activated, and the skeleton god warrior quickly revived. It failed! Lin Moyu was slightly stunned. It was about to succeed, but suddenly failed without warning. Unconvinced, he tried several more times, all with the same result.
He sighed, realizing the skeleton god warrior wouldn't work. If the skeleton god warrior didn't work, the skeleton soul archer and skeleton god mage likely wouldn't either. These three types of skeletons were basic, with little difference between them. He tried and found it was true. None of the three basic skeletons could awaken intelligence.
Among his summons, only the Lich General, Elemental Lich, Death Knight, Bone Dragon, and Resurrected Dead remained. The Lich General and Elemental Lich, though undead, didn't belong to the skeleton category. The Resurrected Dead, already possessing their original wisdom, didn't need intelligence awakening. However, the Resurrected Dead had many limitations, especially their inability to exist for long periods.
The Death Knight and Bone Dragon, though skeletons, didn't seem suitable. Both were warriors, good for charging but not for commanding. Suddenly, Lin Moyu's eyes lit up, and a tall figure appeared beside him. A Lich General appeared.
"The spell doesn't require it to be a skeleton."
The Lich General, after reaching 100% fusion, stood ten meters tall, wearing leather armor, with well-developed muscles, exuding a sense of oppression. Since its appearance, Lin Moyu had used the Lich General as a medic, occasionally as a meat shield, never letting it fight directly. Initially, the Lich General had no combat power, only physical strength. Later, it gained combat power, but by then, Lin Moyu was used to using it as a medic.
He almost forgot that the Lich General initially had the ability to command skeletons. Lin Moyu stood on the throne, and the Lich General stood below, its head reaching Lin Moyu's waist. Splitting a wisp of his soul into the undying flame, Lin Moyu followed the spell's method, merging the undying flame into the Lich General's soul. He carefully sensed the Lich General's changes. Its soul flame was much stronger than the three basic skeletons. With the undying flame's addition, the soul flame grew even stronger.
As the two merged, Lin Moyu's wisp of soul also integrated. The Lich General's soul became more lively. Lin Moyu was serious, knowing the three basic skeletons had all failed at this step. But this time, the Lich General's soul didn't collapse. Its soul flame grew stronger and truly showed signs of intelligence.
The Lich General's aura surged, its power rapidly increasing. In Lin Moyu's vision, the Lich General's body grew larger. In just a few minutes, it grew from ten meters to a hundred meters tall. The hundred-meter-tall Lich General stood like a mountain, occupying half the mountain top. Lin Moyu thought, "It seems a bit too big."
As soon as the thought arose, the Lich General began to shrink, returning to its original ten-meter height. The Lich General knelt, bowing to Lin Moyu, and a deep voice said, "Subordinate greets the master. Thank you for awakening my intelligence."
