Chapter 3531 Pale City
Chapter 3531 Pale City
"I am out!" I nearly screamed as I climbed down the hill, which is the boundary of the mosnil forest.
The Grimms had hunted the Sky Sovereign monster of the forest and it had agitated the whole damn monster. It was really hard and dangerous, that I wanted to hide in my abode and wait till everything passed away.
It would have been a wise choice, but I didn't want to spend more time in the forest and continued.
Now, I have finally got out.
I looked at the moon and date before walking through the invisible gate.
I had come out six hours later, feeling completely refreshed by three houses of sleep. The rest of the three had gone to the practicing and eating.
My practice schedule hasn't changed. I could only use strengthening methods once every three days, but there is an exception.
The strengthening energy.
If I get it after the strengthening, I could do the strengthening a day later. It is why, I try to get at least one Grimm with the bloodline.
So I could practice the methods.
What I get from slime isn't as great as what I get from the Grimms. Every drop matters.
It is still dark, there are two and half hours before dawn, but I resumed my journey. The forest ahead didn't have as much as monsters as the forest behind me, but it wasn't any less dangerous.
The route of the forest is used by a few people; the route ahead is much less dangerous and there would be far more people.
I planned to reach my next destination in the next two days and I might be able to, as long as I am cautious and a little lucky.
I continued with my journey, and soon, it was dawn. I had come across two groups of Grimm in these two and a half hours, but both of them had Peak-Earth Sovereigns in them.
It was regretful, seeing they had bloodline Grimms in the group.
Hun!
I shook my head and moved ahead, avoiding a lone Peak Earth-Sovereign Grimms, a few miles ahead of me.
Hours passed, and I was finally able to get Grimm. It was not the bloodline Grimms, but I am happy nonetheless seeing the stuff I had got from its storage.
It was late in the evening; I had finally found the Grimm with the bloodline. It was an Earth-Sovereign, an initial one, which I had killed quickly, and half an hour after that, I found Sovereign.
To kill it, I didn't even stop.
Soon, two days had passed, and I reached my destination I have to say, the images didn't do justice.
I am on a tall tree, and some distance away from me is a vast, dark place. It is covering a large area with its pale black energy; just looking at it, one would start to feel gloomy.
The pale black energy is the corruption energy, which is powerful enough to kill a Sovereign within a second.
This used to be the headquarters of the organization, but in reality, it was a branch of a cult. So, when it was revealed, a huge battle occurred, and the cultists were decimated at an enormous cost.
Their bodies remained, and they saw how powerful they were. How they died, along with a cataclysmic war that was happening around, had turned this place into this gloomy domain.
This corruption also saved buildings inside from ravaging energies across thousands of years.
So, there are quite a lot of things inside; especially of death element. They are really precious and I need some of them aside from a few other things I have heard this place has.
I looked for a few seconds before moving toward the pale city carefully.
I have to be careful in there; the place is extremely dangerous. Most importantly, I have seen a lot of Grimms moving there, including the Sky Sovereigns.
There are things in here that are extremely enticing even to the Sky Sovereigns.
I do not want those lofty things. Half of the things I want very few people would care for. The other half is a little precious and I hope to get some; I will even fight others for it.
Little over an hour later, I reached the boundary. I stood there for a couple of seconds before entering inside.
Immediately, I felt the pale black corrupted energy, and it wanted to come inside me. My armors opened its vents and took it inside, but it didn't let the energy come inside me.
It sent some small samples to my core, while the rest had filled the formation and my stealth energy began to meld with it.
In just a few seconds, my stealth method becomes one with it. My clone looking at the energy inside, the more it will find out about it; the better my stealth method would become.
I went inside and with every step; the energy began to get denser and der.
Hun!
Ten minutes later, I have come across a small pond. It is not filled with water, but corruption; its grade is far lower than I had needed, but I still collected it.
Corruption is useful, even the one of the lower grade.
I collected some, but not enough to be noticeable. I didn't want to create a trail for someone to track me and if the grade of the corruption isn't high enough, then I will take the risk for it.
I walked for a few minutes, and I came across the first building.
It is big and in relatively good shape, but it is already completely ransacked for what it's worth.
Though, I am not looking at it for that.
Puch!
A few seconds later, an Initial Earth-Sovereign Grimms walked out, with disappointment on its face, when suddenly it had found an energy lance sticking into its chest.
It moved its mouth to curse but found out it couldn't even do that. A moment later, it had disappeared.
