Chapter 226: Secret Realm; Soul Devour Insect Mother

Chapter 226: Secret Realm; Soul Devour Insect Mother

The spoils were quite plentiful. Upon seeing the attributes of the Soul Devour Ring, Lin Moyu couldn't help but feel a trace of delight. The property that reduces the consumption of skills by 20% was perfectly suited for him.

"It was worth the effort!"

The Soul Devour Ring was platinum rank equipment, usable only after level 40.

The Soul Devour Dagger's supplementary skill was quite impressive. The dagger could be given to Ning Yiyi.

The Soul Devour Sword was also excellent. With its supplementary skill, it was a top-tier sword for Knights.

Lin Moyu's luck was pretty good. The weapons he obtained had pretty good supplementary skills.

Lastly, there was Soul Crystal, which permanently increased spirit force by 1,000 points and had no usage restriction.

Although it wasn't as potent as Intermediate Magical Draught, but to Lin Moyu, it was nonetheless extremely useful. After all, what he lacked the most was spirit force.

At the moment, even if he consumed all his spirit force, it would only be enough to summon one Lich General. As for replenishing the undead legions, it seemed like a daunting task. Unless he could obtain Desert Fruit.

When he thought about Desert Fruit, Lin Moyu couldn't help but feel sick again. The memory was too haunting.

He didn't use Soul Crystal right away, but instead looked toward the 100-meter tall hill not far away. That was the Soul Devour Insect King's lair.

When the Soul Devour Insect King died, Lin Moyu clearly felt the hill shake violently. Then, an unusual aura was carried over by a gentle breeze.

"A secret realm!"

This aura was very unique, and Lin Moyu had felt it before. It was the aura of a secret realm!

Lin Moyu put away the undead legions, leaving only two skeletons by his side, and quickly ran forward. The clicking noise in his ears brought him a great sense of security.

The harvest this time was bountiful.

The Abyssal Demons and Dragonkind class users earned Lin Moyu 14,000 military merit, pushing his military rank to five-star lieutenant, just one step away from six-star lieutenant.

The massive number of Soul Devour Insects earned him a large chunk of EXP, propelling his EXP to 35%.

He had been on the Immemorial Battlefield for two days already, and this time, he had obtained the most EXP so far.

After reaching level 30, the leveling speed had slowed significantly once again. At this stage, being able to gain so much EXP at once was already very rare.

This pace, of course, was incomparable to repeatedly raiding dungeons. After all, this was the Immemorial Battlefield.

When Lin Moyu reached the 100-meter tall hill, he saw a distorted space that looked like it was leading to another world. A secret realm! It was indeed a secret realm!

The Soul Devour Insect King's lair was actually a secret realm. When the Soul Devour Insect King was alive, this secret realm was in a closed state. Only after the Soul Devour Insect King died did the secret realm reveal itself.

Lin Moyu realized that the Soul Devour Insect King had wanted to escape into the secret realm in order to survive. Once the Soul Devour Insect King had hidden in the secret realm, there was nothing Lin Moyu could do. After all, he couldn't enter the secret realm while it was in the closed state.

The entrance to the secret realm was a distorted space.

Lin Moyu didn't go in right away. After the recent battle, his spirit force was nearly half depleted. He began to meditate in front of the secret realm. The Skeletal Warriors stood guard next to him.

Due to the cries of the Soul Devour Insect King, the nearby monsters, class users, and Abyssal Demons, had long since escaped.

Lin Moyu quietly enjoyed a period of meditation.

Two hours later, his spirit force was almost fully restored. Lin Moyu took a deep breath and patted the Advanced Dungeon Escape Talisman in his pocket, and then walked into the secret realm.

Advanced Dungeon Escape Talisman could be used not only to exit dungeons but also to leave secret realms. He was oblivious of this fact before, having only bought ordinary Dungeon Escape Talismans from the trading office, which were not only ineffective in secret realms, but couldn't even be used in some special dungeons.

Luckily, Bai Yiyuan had thought everything through.

After Lin Moyu entered the secret realm, some class users arrived nearby. A party of 12 Dragonkind class users showed up.

This kind of party was often referred to as hell difficulty raid party by class users. As the name implied, they specialized in challenging hell rank dungeons.

This sort of party had many people, great equipment, complete skills, and excellent coordination. On the Immemorial Battlefield, a place full of unknown dangers, this provided a relative measure of safety and security.

When they saw the completely collapsed ground, their eyes were filled with amazement. There were still some Soul Devour Insects left, but not many, and they didn't pose a threat.

These hills were actually the Soul Devour Insects' nests, commonly known as the Soul Devour Insect Territory. Normally, they would never dare to step foot in this place, for fear of provoking the Soul Devour Insects.

[Soul Devour Insect Mother (world rank boss)]

[Level: 56]

[Strength: 0]

[Agility: 0]

[Spirit: 200,000]

[Physique: 200,000]

[Skills: Soul Devour, Soul Explosion, Soul Frost, Super Brooding]

[Traits: Physical Damage Reduced by 30%, Elemental Damage Reduced by 30%, Soul Damage Reduced by 30%]

A world rank boss, one rank higher than the Soul Devour Insect King, and its overall attributes reached a whopping 400,000 points, 100,000 points higher than that of the Soul Devour Insect King.

The difference between lord rank boss and world rank boss was just of one rank, yet it resulted in such a huge increase of overall attributes, exceeding Lin Moyu's expectation.

The Soul Devour Insect Mother had no physical attack power and no mobility. But its spirit force and physique had reached 200,000 points, the highest Lin Moyu had ever seen. Combined with its skills, it was clearly a Mage-type boss. The power of a Mage-type boss was entirely dependent on its skills.

The four Soul Devour Insects guarding it screeched at Lin Moyu, their noise cutting through the air like knives. But they didn't attack him.

Lin Moyu found this odd. Under normal circumstances, they would have charged at him by now. He cast Detection.

[Soul Devour Insect Guard (leader rank monster)]

[Level: 50]

[Strength: 0]

[Agility: 0]

[Spirit: 200,000]

[Physique: 50,000]

[Skills: Spirit Shield]

[Traits: Physical Damage Reduced by 70%, Elemental Damage Reduced by 70%, Kindred Soul Union]

No wonder they didn't attack; they didn't have any attack power at all. Additionally, although their physique was low, but their spirit was off the charts. Combined with their skill, Lin Moyu immediately understood their purpose.

At this time, the Lich Generals appeared with their undead legions, with 2,000 Skeletal Warriors and 1,000 Skeletal Mages filling up a large area.

The Skeletal Warriors charged forward with a clatter, while the Skeletal Mages cast magic spells from the rear.

The Lich Generals instantly applied status buffs to them, causing the skeletons to glow with brilliant rings of light, illuminating much of the secret realm.

The entire action sequence was as smooth as flowing water, making for an impressive sight.

With a ripping sound, a chunk of flesh fell from the Soul Devour Insect Mother, and then transformed into a small mound upon hitting the ground. This was how the Soul Devour Insect Nestling were formed.

They were split off from the Soul Devour Insect Mother, then grew and hatched new Soul Devour Insects. This was how Soul Devour Insects expanded their population.

After splitting off a nestling, the Soul Devour Insect Mother let out a piercing screech, and terrifying, almost tangible sound waves broke out and pushed the skeletons back.

The four Soul Devour Insect Guards emitted dense blue light and activated their Spirit Shield.

The Spirit Shields of the four Soul Devour Insect Guards connected together and merged into one, encompassing both themselves and the Soul Devour Insect Mother.

In order to kill them, Lin Moyu had to break their shield first.

The spirit force of the four Soul Devour Insect Guards put together reached a total of 800,000 points, showing just how sturdy this shield was. Breaking through it would be no easy task.

Sssskreee!

All of a sudden, a wailing cry echoed and slammed heavily into the skeletons, and their soul fire flickered violently, collectively suffering damage.
