Chapter 183 - The Shadow Realm and Entering

After storing the [Heroic Soul Borrowing] the two of them looked at each other in silence. For a while only the chirping of cicadas could be heard in their ears.

“That…”

In the end, it was Nangong Li who broke the silence first. She brushed her golden hair behind her ear and said, “Is that thing of yours that can draw out mysterious inner voices really a legendary divine artifact?”

“No, it’s just a normal equipment,”

“Oh, then it must be an S-grade item.” Nangong Li nodded her head, not fully understanding.

Ling Yi blinked his eyes and thought to himself, ‘Actually, it’s only C-grade… But of course, after the mutation, it is at least S-grade…’

The two of them were silent for a moment, and the situation became a little awkward.

Neither of them liked to gossip, so when the business was done, neither of them had anything else to say.

“Then, then… In the future, if there are any major situations, can you come and help us? In situations like when we need to retrieve information from spies, for example…”

“Uh… I don’t really want to go that far.”

“Oh, don’t worry! At that time, we can find an excuse to organize a trip for everyone.”

“That’s fine.”

Seeing Ling Yi agree, a bold idea immediately rose in Nangong Li’s heart.

She planned to rent his time to use this equipment!

Thinking of this, she jumped up excitedly and said, “Do you have any restrictions to this equipment? How big is the area it could cover? Can I rent it…”

Ten minutes later…

After a detailed discussion between the two of them, a “rental contract” that was only limited to a verbal agreement between the two parties was settled.

Nangong Li happily turned around and left. Ling Yi also grinned.

“In the future, when I’m bored, I’ll have something fun to watch.”

[01 Has Once Again Reached the Top of the 50 – 59 Region Ranking!](HOT)

[The Ice Master in 01’s Body Can Actually Fight in the Arena!] (HOT)

[After collecting two legendary Proofs of Invincibility, 01’s path to invincibility is Almost Halfway Through!](HOT)

There has been no big news around the world these few days.

As a result, Ling Yi was able to become a hot topic on the forum again even though he was not really on the leaderboard.

The entire Alliance and countries around the world were focused on the progress of collecting the Proofs of Invincibility, but the players were focused on the Ice Master in his body.

In one of the popular posts, the discussion of several world-famous players attracted a large number of passers-by.

[Asi (LV93) (World’s number one player): If it wasn’t for the Ice Expert, I would have thought she was a summoned beast.]

[Shadow King (LV 90) (Leader of the Shadow World) (A dark organization): That’s right, I don’t know how he did it. If everyone could have such an expert enter their body, wouldn’t everyone be able to replicate his miracle?]

[Sheng Futian (L V89) (Former leader of Sacred Gate): Hmph. It’s actually very easy to find out who 01 is. Doesn’t Shenxia Qianjiang City have a divine weapon that can reveal one’s thoughts? As long as someone manages to get their hands on that and bring it to District 66’s 01, then 01’s identity and all his secrets will be known to the world, right?]

It was obvious.

As for the matter of his Sacred Gate being destroyed by this ‘mysterious voice’, Sheng Futian was still filled with resentment.

[Sheng Futian: When the time comes, regardless of whether you want to know how he allowed the experts to enter his body or something else, as long as you stand in front of him and ask him, it doesn’t matter if he tells you or not. All the information will definitely be revealed!]

[Shadow King: You’re right. I’m also tempted.]

[Sheng Futian: Hahaha, go on then. Although I don’t want to admit it, your Shadow Realm is indeed more terrifying than my Sacred Gate.]

[Shadow King: Hehe, my Shadow Realm only recruits strong people. Can your people, who don’t care if they’re smelly fish or rotten shrimp, be compared to mine?]

The Shadow World was the second-ranked underground organization in the world.

The ranking of these dark organizations was a result of the entire Alliance’s synthesis of their strength and degree of danger.

Sacred Gate organization was ranked third because of its large number of members and their ability to cause trouble all over the world.

Shadow World, on the other hand, was ranked second for their repeated assassinations and kidnapping of important members of the entire Alliance and major forces.

Now…

Seeing the two leaders of the dark coalition openly discussing about entering Shenxia to snatch the legendary weapon known as the nemesis of evil, countless players began to comment on their posts.

[You speak without thinking. Do you dare to enter Shenxia? Let’s see you try!]

[I’m afraid that on the day they enter, they will be buried on the same day.]

[Even though I’m a White Eagle, I know that Shenxia has the most invincible Masters in the world. Even if they only send two of them, it’s enough to destroy the Shadow World.]

[Which of Shenxia’s six Divine Pillars can you defeat?]

[Who doesn’t know how to talk? If you have the guts, then go in!]

The comments came in one after another, and many of them did not believe that Shadow World would really enter Shenxia.

The Shadow King seemed to have disappeared as well, and he did not respond to the players.

At this moment,

Ling Yi, who had just finished killing the boss in the main world and returned home, also saw the post on the forum. He just laughed it off.

Compared to this, he was more concerned about the trip to the great world tomorrow.

…

The next morning, the sun was shining brightly.

In order to obtain the [Vajra Divine Shield] and merge it with the [Invincible Holy Shield], Ling Yi, Yunji, and Lin Shurou entered the great world together.

This was a super large map that he had learned about before. It was filled with monsters and Beast Kings of all levels, and every player who had left the basic map could enter it.

“So far, we players have yet to discover the boundary of the great world, since it will continue to expand infinitely with our exploration.”

The three of them ran through a forest. Yunji, like a tour guide, enthusiastically introduced the relevant information to the two who had just entered the great world.

“The forest we are in is named the Magic Bug Forest because there are many insect-type monsters here, such as level 15 Poisonous Bugs, level 35 Red Lotus Bugs, level 75 Heart Devouring Bugs, and so on. After this forest, we’ll reach Gaomu Ridge.”

“There are giant trees that are 40 to 50 meters tall, and a large number of monkey-type monsters.”

“The King Ape you want to deal with is the Beast King of Gaomu Ridge.”

Speaking of this, Yunji picked up the green gourd tied to her waist, turned around, and smiled at the two. “This is an exorcism flag. As long as you carry it with you, it will continue to emit a smell that monsters hate and drive away all monsters within a hundred meters.”

“It wasn’t easy for me to obtain it, you know.”

“Oh, so it’s because of your gourd. I was wondering why I didn’t see any monsters on my way here.” Lin Shurou smiled.

Ling Yi looked at the gourd and activated his [Eye of Truth].

[Exorcism Calabash (B)]: When exposed to the air, it will continuously release a smell that monsters hate to drive away monsters within a 100-meter radius; If you attack a monster, the dispelling effect will be ineffective on the monster. This item can only be used in the main world and the great world, and it has no effect on the Beast King.

“If there’s an item that could repel monsters, is there also an item that can lure them?” He suddenly asked.

Yunji was stunned for a moment, then she nodded and smiled. “Yes, there’s indeed a monster-luring gourd. It’s used to attract monsters within a hundred meters.”

“It’s just that no one uses it because there’s a one-time item called ‘Monster-Attracting Incense’ to attract them. It’s not only cheap and easy to get but also has a larger range of effects.”

Ling Yi nodded, but he was thinking that if he used this thing in the main world, wouldn’t there be an endless stream of monsters coming to their deaths?
