Chapter 161.1 The Monkey King’s Palace (5) (2/2)
Then, like it had read Yeon-woo’s thought, it lightly trembled. Yeon-woo put his hand on the door, doubting himself.
And that moment.
The door that seemed like it wouldn’t budge creaked open.
The other members looked at Yeon-woo dumbfoundedly, but Yeon-woo just simply shrugged his shoulders.
And he threw his consciousness inside.
Like it’s name ‘Palace’ it really was fancy.
And as if they were servants greeting their king, on 99 stairs, there were extravagant statues ordered below the top stair.
Each of them were intricately decorated with the face of a monkey.
And along the side, there were large stone column-like figures standing as if they were on guard.

The Monkey King was known to be the king of the yokai monkeys. This seemed to have imitated how he ruled over his domain.
They were only statues, but the party uncertainty paused, as if they could feel the aura of the real things. They couldn’t gather the courage to actually enter it.
And the powers of each of the statues were enough to surpass Kahn and Yeon-woo. They didn’t fall short when compared to Rebecca either.
More than anything.
‘The vestige of the Monkey King suddenly disappeared.’
They couldn’t see the depressing vestige that tried to swallow them. They felt danger.
[There! Kindred!]
But when Victoria had tried to follow the traces of magic to Kindred.
Rebecca and Kahn’s movements became different.
Kindred’s body was on the center right. And in front of him, there was a large stone monument of about 30 meters.

The small letters engraved on the front of it stopped the two in their tracks.
72 Arts. The power of the Monkey King was here.
[Found it.]
Then, Kahn took a big step forward with a trembling voice. Unlike Rebecca, who was being wary of the Monkey King’s vestige, Kahn’s attention was only on the stone monument.
[If only I have that Doyle can…..!]
The moment Kahn moved forward like he was possessed.
[Hahaha! I’ll take the 72 Arts!]
Sol Luna suddenly popped out from the air.
Before Rebecca and Victoria could do anything, she laughed loudly and flew towards the stone monument past the iron door.
Then.

[Who dares to wake the King’s eternal sleep?]
With the sound of a resonant Open Speaking, a black wind suddenly blew and ripped Sol Luna to pieces. She couldn’t even fight back.
Kahn stopped in his tracks after seeing that, but the air inside the hall was already drastically different.
Creak-
The hundreds of statues turned their heads as one.
All gazes were focused that way.
Vestiges emanated from the statues.
A powerful power blew around the hall like a storm.
The dungeon shook up and down.
[A sudden quest has begun.]

Summary: The Monkey King has succeeded in leaving the 5th mountain after 500 years, and after his penance, he was able to take off his shredding and become a god.

So until the day their king returned, they built an underground palace where his shedding was left behind.
And to prevent the thievery of his shedding, they set up terracotta soldiers to protect it using their vestige.
From now, escape with the shedding of the king safely. Also, prove that you have the qualification to become the successor of the Monkey King.
Participation Qualification: Attainment of hidden quest ‘Monkey King’s Palace.’

[The first test is commencing.]
A message popped up in front of them.

[Shit!]
Kahn realized his mistake. He had been blind for the 72 Arts in this dungeon that could have traps anywhere.
Sol Luna was the one to awake the stone monuments, but he wouldn’t have caused this if not for her.
Kahn quickly pulled back. Fortunately, the fist of the stone monument missed him. As the fist crushed into the ground, pieces of stone flew out.
But that was only the beginning.
The stone monuments, not including the guard statues, all ran towards the entrance.
[Those who dare to bother the King’s eternal sleep must pay with their death!]
A hundred voices all shouted as one. It beat into their eardrums.
Booboom!
The monkeys, despite being made of stone, moved quickly. Their weight left imprints on the ground where they stepped.
