Chapter 418 – Ghostly King Boss! (2/2)
But…
He didn’t increase the level of Berserk because leveling up was more important right now.
Three days later.
Deep inside the Dark Abyss Valley was a pitch-black cave. The cave would occasionally give off red flashes and a series of strange wails. The cave entrance was covered in the aura of death that instantly caused fear to sprout up in people.
“We’ve arrived!”
“This is the Dark Abyss Cave,” said Han Hua.
The cave entrance was very narrow where only two people could enter side by side. And the line of sight was extremely poor. If people hid in this place for an ambush, most likely even experts of immortal sects at the Profound Venerate realm would be easily killed. There was basically no place for one to dodge out of the way.
Luo Tian’s brows furrowed and asked: “How’s the situation inside the cave?”
Han Hua replied: “The Dark Abyss Cave is split into three levels, and each level is larger than the next. It is practically an underground world. The ghostly beasts get stronger at each level, and the lowest-ranked ghostly beast inside is stronger than the ones in the valley. Last time we went inside, it was our second excursion and also the time where a senior brother died.”
Luo Tian was in thought for a bit before asking: “What’s the condition for completing the mission?”
Han Hua replied: “The Flower of Death.”
Luo Tian blanked out a bit and couldn’t help asking: “Flower of Death? What is that?”
Han Hua explained: “The Flower of Death is a legendary spiritual herb and is the main ingredient to concoct the Lost Soul Pill. The mission was issued by an inner sect Elder ten years ago and no one has been able to complete it. It has become the Merit Hall’s longest-standing mission of all time. Because no one has been able to complete it, the merit points of it have been rising like a rocket.
“Lost Soul Pill?!”
Luo Tian was startled by it because he has never heard of such a medicinal pill. Hearing the name makes it sound like some evil item, so he started saying to himself: “Inner sect Elder? The only person capable of concocting this pill is most likely old daoist Tian Ling. What is he trying to do with that pill? A mission like this can be issued in the inner sect, so why would it be in the outer sect? Isn’t this the same as sending outer sect disciples to their deaths?”
Indeed…
A mission of this degree of difficulty had already surpassed the capabilities of an outer sect disciple.
But no matter what…
Since they’ve already arrived here, they might as well go in and take a look.
In other words…
The ghostly beasts of Dark Abyss Valley had been cleared up by Luo Tian and not a single one was left behind. He was still missing a little bit of experience points from leveling to the Profound Ancestor 4th rank. If he was able to break through to the Profound Ancestor 8th rank with what time he had left, Luo Tian believes he will have enough strength to contend with Zhang Kuang.
Luo Tian’s brows furrowed before he said: “You guys go in first and wait for me at the mouth of the cave. I will head inside a bit later.”
Han Hua brought Yun Ling, Yun Yi, and Zhao Chen into the cave.
Luo Tian observed his surroundings before using shocking speeds to arrange an array.
He had to be careful with everything!
———-
“Boom~!”
“Boom~!”
“This ghostly beast has really powerful defensive properties.”
“Fire attributed attacks aren’t dealing that much damage.” Luo Tian was turning gloomy inside. In front of him was a huge main hall with ghostly beasts everywhere. Their eyes were replaced with burning flames that seem to have come from the depths of hell.
“Senior sister, Yun Ling, Yun Yi; you girls take a break.”
“Zhao Chen; maintain the defensive array and follow me.”
Luo Tian had no thoughts of stopping.
The main hall had huge amounts of ghostly beasts, making this place a holy ground for leveling up!
Seeing so many ghostly beasts, Luo Tian’s heart started becoming elated. He then said to himself: “If all three levels have this many ghostly beats, then there’s hope for me to level up to the Profound Venerate realm. Heh heh…”
“Boom~!”
Just when Luo Tian was enjoying his slaughtering fest…
An ear-deafening sound came from deep inside the main hall.
Han Hua, Yun Ling, and Yun Yi’s expression drastically changed as they shouted: “Junior brother; the Ghostly King has appeared!”
