Chapter 6 (1/2)

Alarming Change

Zhou Jian had a hard time moving 20 meters ahead. When suddenly, he felt the temperature increased. The blowing hot air almost made him jumped.

Zhou Jian watched his health bar furiously dropped but couldn’t do anything about it. Now, he’s in the stealth mode. If he took in potion, he would reappear. When that times come, the result could be imagined.

At this time, there’s a wide lava lake in front of him where the hot air was coming from.

Floating high above the lake was a black stone altar. Above the altar was a constantly beating Demon’s heart. That heart was as big as a human’s head. Looking up, it’s bright red like blood.

Zhou Jian took a deep breathe. He took out the Pandora’s seal and at the same time, activated the skill – Telekinesis.

Telekinesis belong to non-combat skill. It could be used during stealth. The small seal floated away from Zhou Jian across the lake. Fortunately, there’s few monsters in the lake and red fog filled the air. Zhou Jian tried to control the flight of the seal across the lake. So, there’s no monster that noticed this little thing.

The heart distance from the sh.o.r.e was about 30 meters away. Zhou Jian stared as the Pandora’s seal almost reached 20 meters, 10 meters, 5 meters …

Since the distance was too far, Zhou Jian’s mental strength was somewhat drained. His forehead was dense with sweat. He could only clenched his teeth. 3 meters. 2 meters. 1 meter…

At the last moment, Zhou Jian’s heart was already up in his throat.

“Puff!”

In a small voice, the Pandora’s seal gently attached to the Demon’s heart.

And then, the beating heart suddenly stopped.

Silence. Just dead silence.

The monsters around the lake were alerted. They stopped and turned to take a look at the altar…

Success just like that?

There’s no danger?

Zhou Jian focused on those dazed monster stare. His own heart was beating fast. He’s very afraid that the monsters will suddenly rush towards the Demon Lord’s heart.

This short few seconds was incomparable long for Zhou Jian. In his heart, there was an intense unease, as if there’s going to be a danger that would happen straight away.

Where’s a hiding place? Zhou Jian looked around and suddenly found a rock fissure about ten meters away. His heart leaped with joy. He went there immediately and hide in the crack. Even if there’s monsters rus.h.i.+ng, he could still hide in there.

However, he also started to discover something a bit strange.

Eh? What was this light?

Zhou Jian felt that the light in his back seemed to s.h.i.+ne a little brighter.

He turned around, and at the same time, the Demon Lord’s altar exploded with a bang!

Such a deafening explosion swept across the place, The lava lake erupted. Several meters high lava waves howled toward the sh.o.r.e, approaching Zhou Jian.

F**k!

There’s no time left for Zhou Jian to run towards the fissure, regardless if he was exposed or not. Without hesitation, he chose to level up. At that moment, a soft light towered over Zhou Jian. The uncomfortable burning sensation and pain were gone. His negative state was gone as well. Zhou Jian’s health and mental strength were rapidly recovering.

And at this time, the surging lava wave crashed at Zhou Jian. However, the curing light rapidly restored Zhou Jian’s health and made him miraculously survived this catastrophe.
