Chapter 541: Ghost 7: Furious Blache
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
The Abyss Mode referred to the situation when the players encountered teams of monsters in the dungeons that were from the Otherverse.
For ordinary players, the encounter would be a disaster.
It also meant a challenge.
Most of the Abyss Demons invading this space were relatively low-leveled. After consuming lots of energy to break through the space to land in the dungeons, they could be killed by a well-coordinated team of ordinary players who were strong.
But now, only a few players had finished the awakening mission; most of the players hadn’t passed the mechanical bull dungeon yet and thus wouldn’t initiate a battle with Abyss Demons.
At this moment, Gu Tingyun had gone online to make the Sky Outfit Set, leaving Vice Academy Master Xiao and the others of the Heavenly Academy to watch from behind in confusion.
Suddenly, Vice Academy Master Xiao saw a huge altar with a statue of a demon head appear on Elder Yu’s screen.
The demon head on the altar had crimson eyes and four horns. Even from the screen, he could sense the streak of strong evil aura emitting from it.
“What’s this?!” Vice Academy Master Xiao yelled in alarm.
“Demon Altar.” Elder Yu looked grim. “It seems like someone has encountered the Abyss Demons. I’m watching it on the livestream.”
“Livestream?!” The people standing behind him sounded puzzled.
“Yeah…” Elder Yu explained with a grim expression, “It’s like the Distance Image Transmission Spell. We can sit and watch whatever they do through this spiritual artifact.”
The name of the livestream room was [An Encounter with an Abyss Demon: Uncovering the Truth About Demons].
It was the livestream of a player of Yuanyang City who was about level 30; he and his teammates were being attacked by an Abyss Demon.
“An Abyss… Demon?!” As a vice academy master of Heavenly Academy, he had seen many things, but he had never heard of such things before.
“What’s this thing?!” They intently stared at the altar on Elder Yu’s screen.
Beside the altar, a horrid shadow engulfed in flames gradually solidified from its initial vague form.
Even from the screen, they had a clear view of it. It was a human-shaped demon that was as tall as three people; it had huge horns on its head, and its greyish-white skin looked as hard as steel.
It emitted blazing flames, and the players could smell the nose-piercing odor of sulfur even from the distance. The horrifying high temperature turned the moisture on the land into water vapor, making this demon look like a living volcano that was moving!
The players on the livestream felt a burning presence rushed toward them as soon as they got close. The horrid high temperature roasted their skin to a red tone, and their HPs were dropping continuously.
Although it was clear that this demon didn’t run, it got close to the players with a few casual steps.
It hadn’t attacked yet, but the players already felt suffocated by its horrifying suppressive aura.
“This… This…” Vice Academy Master Xiao and the elders who came with him looked dazed with disbelief in their eyes. “How can it be…?! Is it really a demon!?”
As if it were answering these questions, the demon waved its hand, and a dark red magic array suddenly lit up in the sky.
In the next moment, a stream of fire shot across the sky!
A small meteorite crashed onto the ground with vicious force.
The horrifying shock wave destroyed almost everything around it. One player couldn’t dodge it in time and was buried under the meteorite and turned into ashes by the burning flames around the meteorite.
Among frantic screams, a gunner took out the anti-tank cannon from his storage space anxiously and fired!
Swoosh!
A sharp, whistling noise tore through the air, but the demon moved its body, and the missile went past it!
“He dodged it?” That player looked at the scene dumbfoundedly.
The demon seemed to pay little attention to the players. It was absorbing the energy from the air to replenish the power that it had depleted while traveling through space.
Many wisps of fire gathered around the demon. Like a big fire ball, they floated around the demon and then shot toward the nearby players like a ghost.
Soon, the demon pushed out its palms, and a huge cloud of flames flew toward the gunner.
Meanwhile, it let out a long chant, and more strange red magic arrays gathered in the sky.
“Run! Quick! Run!”
Meteorites crashed down from the sky like rain!
Even though they were watching from the livestream from the screen, the viewers felt a sense of suffocation from this horrifying scene.
Many small meteorites crashed down, filling the ground with huge craters!
By now, all the players who came to explore this place had died.
“What… what’s this monster?!” Vice Academy Master Xiao yelled in shock.
Our cultivation world is on the brink of destruction already, and such a horrifying monster appeared as well? How can cultivators like us handle such a situation?!
Desperate thoughts filled the newcomers’ heads while they wondered how they could survive!
At this moment, someone yelled, “The shop owner is going to challenge the Abyss Demon!”
“The shop owner turned on the livestream! In Room XX001127!”
“What?! Someone dares to mess with this kind of monsters?!” The vice academy masters and elders of the Heavenly Academy who had just returned from the Sky Relic were shocked to hear that someone would challenge such powerful monsters!
Soon, they saw Elder Yu entering another livestream room. Sure enough, a man wearing a dark blue robe with a dazzling slim short sword sparkling with magic light came to an altar.
The location was similar to the place where the previous altar was at; it seemed to be the same altar. (The abyss in the Behemoth Map)
On the huge platform were all kinds of strange buildings and many corpses. Except for these, there was only the strange young man with the short sword.
[The shop owner didn’t buy the Sky Outfit Set?!]
[His weapon looks very special!]
The viewers talked among themselves.
“This is a level 40 pink short sword: Teaching of Gora – Swiftness. The shop owner has reinforced it to level 12.”
“The shop owner’s equipment is superb… Wasn’t he afraid that this godly short sword would be shattered during the reinforcement process?!”
– Meanwhile –
“Is this young man crazy?!” Vice Academy Master Xiao exclaimed in shock while staring at the screen intently.
“What spiritual spell did this young man use? How come I’ve never seen them before?!”
The skeleton minions around the broken altar were cleared up.
On the screen, Fang Qi had used Afterimage of Keiga and Phantasmal Step. Then, the gloomy shadow of a demon appeared behind him.
Then, a red, vicious, ghost-like demon shadow came near the altar – Kazan.
The cultivators who had just returned from the Sky Relic had never seen such things before! They held their breaths and stared at the screen without blinking.
Soon, they saw that the demon’s shadow turned distinct before the altar.
Fang Qi walked swiftly in the red array and came near the shadow.
He chanted lightly, and the demons came at his summon.
The green demon shadow – Hazy-Eyed Bremen.
The purple demon shadow – Plague Rhasa.
The icy-blue demon shadow— Ice Saya.
As if it came from Hell, a huge bone wing spread out from behind Fang Qi. In the darkness existed another vicious and distorted demon – the Sixth Demon Kalla of Dark Flame.
These demon shadows overlapped, almost turning this place into a death zone!
The horrifying presences that they emitted seemed no less powerful compared to that of the Abyss Demon.
By now, the shadow of the Abyss Demon had turned completely solid; it had completely entered this space from the void.
“What is this young man trying to do!?” The newcomers of the Heavenly Academy gaped at the scene.
On top of them, the other viewers who were watching the livestream were also puzzled.
In the next instant, Fang Qi stabbed his short sword into the overlapped ghost arrays with vicious force.
The sky suddenly darkened, and the solid stone ground seemed to transform into a black swamp.
In the pitch-black swamp, death ripples spread out as if something horrifying was taking shape inside.
Vice Academy Master Xiao rubbed his eyes. What was he looking at?! He saw a horrifying monster slowly rising from the swamp as if it were coming from a bottomless abyss!
Only half of its head appeared, but it was so big that it filled the whole screen!
“What skill is this?! How come I’ve never seen it before?!”
“It seems to be awakening! Soul bender’s awakening!”
The viewers who were watching the livestream all yelled in astonishment.
Awakening Skill: Summoning Ghost 7: Furious Blache!
Furious Blache contained one of the negative emotions of humans; it was an ancient abyss monster formed by greed.
It was heard that anyone who mastered the power of two demons could break the seal in the depths of the swamp and release Blache. As an animal-type demon, it had a body much bigger than the Behemoth. It usually slumbered in the death swamp created by the Death God, and its responsibility was catching ghosts and imprisoning them in the swamp.
The ghosts that it couldn’t catch were called demons.
Blache hated the demons that it couldn’t catch. Whenever it saw demons, it would want to swallow them. However, it never succeeded. The Great Zieg, one of the first soul benders, took use of this and summoned many demons to stand behind the enemies. Then, Blache would be summoned and would swallow all the enemies.
The viewers saw a huge mouth opening and swallowing everything on the ground!
“This person…”
“How can such a powerful person exist in this world?!”
“Where’s that demon?!”
Vice Academy Master Xiao and the other elders gaped as they stared at the screen with turmoil in their minds.
How can this person be so powerful?!
He can even summon such a horrifying monster to battle for him! How can anyone in the world be his match?!
A few minutes later, someone finally explained to them what games were.
“Hurry! Let’s go and buy membership cards!”
“We’ll adventure on the Arad Continent too!”
