Chapter 320 - How To Buy A Train Ticket? (1/2)

Its area was only the size of a common basketball court, but it was unknown how deep the pools were.

Three groups of people split into three directions and faced each other.

Streams of grayish-white breaths flowed slowly around the pool, like venomous snakes wandering around silently.

If you stayed away from it, it will not attack you either. However, if you entered its striking range, then you would have a big problem.

If ordinary people approached it, they might be instantly eroded into a pile of bones.

From the bones scattered and fallen around the pool, the strength of the grayish-white breath was obvious.

The three groups that were facing each other were all in its striking range.

However, as soon as the gray breath approached them, it automatically bypassed them. However, it was not like they were afraid, but that they were meeting one of their own kind.

One of the three groups that were mostly made of white people were currently surrounding a black cat with a proud expression.

Another group was headed by a young white man with a black coat as well as an enchanting white woman.

The last group could not really be considered as a group. It was only made out of two people, and both of them were stout men almost two meters tall.

These three groups of people were Tom and its team, the Heliotropes Claude and his sister Claudia, the Russian necromancer Valery and Alex, his assistant and bodyguard.

They all remained silent and only stared into the deep pool

After a while, a thin smile appeared on Claude’s pale and cold face.

“Shall we hurry and decide who should be the first to enter the pool? It seems an old rival has arrived outside. Although it’s impossible for him to enter this place, but it’ll be a huge problem if he stays outside too. If we decide the master of the secret realm as soon as possible, we won’t have to worry about that anymore.”

While he spoke, he held out his finger, and an ashy wisp of breath hovered in the air and displayed a scene as if obediently listening to his orders.

“Vigilante A. Why is he everywhere?” Tom instantly frowned as it saw the young man in the image who was seemingly looking for something to touch in his surroundings.

In the past, wherever he went, it would insist on going as well.

This time, however, it wanted nothing more than to be as far from him as possible, lest he hindered the great Sir Tom from becoming the master of the arcane realm.

The black cat Tom then agreed, “Claude is right. As the Spokesperson of Death, this Undead Realm has a predestined affinity with me. Looks like I should be the first to enter the pool.”

Claudia said sarcastically, “Hmph, Mr. Tom is just the Spokesperson of Death, not a great monk from the east. What do you mean affinity? Don’t you think that’s hilarious?!”

Tom’s eyes instantly flashed coldly at her words, and swept its gaze towards the woman.

With its current Lake-level strength, it could easily suppress this entire place. However, it did not move, because it knew that it could not act rashly right now.

Claudia was particularly pleased to see the black cat restraining itself, and turned her eyes to the two Russian men.

“My brother is right. We can’t delay this any longer. Mr. Tom, why don’t we join forces and get rid of the others first? A choice between two options is easier than a choice between three after all.”

Valery and Alex exchanged looks at her words, and their faces flushed red.

Alex thundered, “You bunch of people are reaping benefits without sowing anything! We were the ones who opened this secret realm! Now you want to drive us out?!”

Valery was equally indignant, “Indeed. We were the ones who discovered this arcane realm, and we were the ones who worked overtime day and night for three months to get the train ticket for the Spectral Train in order to come to this arcane realm.

“You are well-informed and smart. You took the chance to quietly get on the train while it stopped. We contributed the most regardless if you look at it from the view of emotion or reason. We naturally deserve to be the first to enter!”

When Claude heard him, he smiled. He did not feel embarrassed, but was instead proud.

He lightly said, “There’s a saying in the east, ‘The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind’. Those who labor with their minds govern others, while those who labor with their strength are governed by others. You can only blame yourselves for being stupid, and idiots should just stay in the back!”

Valery was so infuriated and resentful that he had nothing to say.

He said hatefully, “You want to drive us away? Damn it, we can’t beat you, but don’t think you’ll have it easy as well!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised the huge black hammer he used to resurrect and store ghouls and pointed it at the pool.”

A look of nervousness flashed on Tom’s and the Kirschner siblings’ faces.

The grayish-white breath on the pool immediately began to tangle together, as if they could sense the threat.

The others’ eyes turned cold at his words. He was talking about the key point of their confrontation.

This pool was a source that gave birth to Yin Energy. Whoever got its approval was the master of the arcane realm.

Most pregnant creatures were extra fragile. It could be said that just a little foreign disturbance might cause deformities to develop in the future!

They were all people belonging to the Evil side of the spectrum, so their cultivation abilities leaned more towards the Yin side, and fit perfectly with this Yin Energy source. Each of them had the qualifications to be the master of the arcane realm.

Heliotropes stay underground all year and never see the light. They were also always accompanied by death.

The black cat Tom was the Spokesperson of Death, so it had the most chance here out of all of them.

Among the two tall and strong Russians, one was a necromancer, and one was a Hexer. They were both related to death, so their chances were not small either.

Once they became the master of the arcane realm, they would be able to come and go freely as they pleased.

Previously, Lei Tian fell for Ren Ruofeng’s bait. He was a warlike man and was trapped by his own cultivation techniques, which resulted in the heaven-sent good cards to beat him to a pulp.

He did not know that no matter how amazing Ren Ruofeng was, he would still need a decade to calculate the Vitality channel outside the arcane realm.

With this time to develop, the master of the arcane realm had already started to be formidable.

Among the three groups here, none of them were similar to that fighting maniac Lei Tian.

On the contrary, besides all being related to Death, they had another huge thing in common.
