Who was the culprit this time? Lin Zhigang thought it was weird when he saw the Giant Bats scatter. The Blood Fiend Strike from before was provoked by Shi Xiang, and he even caused the deaths of the members of the Azure Dragon Squad. Now that the Giant Bats scattered, it meant that someone was playing a bigger game. However, this person had done a good deed. He had lured the Vampire Bats away, so the others were relatively safer.
"Sigh, what a pity. I will break through to the Grandmaster Realm soon."
At that time, Du Feng was absorbing the Blood Qi crazily and made use of this opportunity to break through to the Martial Condensation Realm Level 9. However, the Vampire Bats rushed over and Du Tulong woke him up to run for his life.
"Pity my ass. Do you want to die?"
Du Tulong did not forget to criticize Du Feng. As his Divine Beast, he had to take care of his master's safety. Although the Blood Qi was useful, it would hurt his body if he used too much at once. If he was left with an unrecoverable injury, how would he be able to continue? Furthermore, the millions of Vampire Bats had already pounced on him. If he did not leave now, he would not be able to.
As Du Feng dived deeper and deeper into the ground, the noises above his head became softer and softer. No matter how strong the Vampire Bats were, they were not Pangolins. They could not dig too deep. Furthermore, the Burial Ground became harder the deeper he went. Towards the end, it was as hard as iron. There was no way to dig.
"121 meters. I have improved again."
After Du Feng dived to his limit, he did not forget to estimate his results. The last time he dived, his limit was exactly 100 meters. This time, his Cultivation had increased to the Martial Condensation Realm Level 9, and he had dived another 21 meters. This 21 meters was not as simple as an increase of 21%. It was a huge leap. Because the density of the Burial Ground was getting higher and higher. Every meter was extremely difficult. Even a real Pangolin would not be able to dig this deep.
Not only was the density of the Burial Ground high, but the pressure was also extremely high. If it weren't for Du Feng's protective barrier, Zhao Zhineng's internal organs would have exploded from the pressure. He looked at his muscles and couldn't help but sigh. What was the point of training all this strength? He was still a burden. He had suffered so much, training in winter and summer, but in the end, he was still ridiculed by Shi Xiang, that licentious young master.
"Don't be discouraged. A beast's rank doesn't represent everything."
Du Feng sympathized with these people who worked very hard despite their poor aptitude. Thinking back to the time when he didn't have a beast, he had to put in a hundred times or even a thousand times more effort than the others before he could barely enter the ranks of rankers. In this life, his aptitude was so high that it was impossible for him to say such words of encouragement. Although it was sincere encouragement, it always gave people the feeling that it was easier said than done.
Back then, when he didn't have any beasts, he had the support of his father, the Pill Emperor. Now that he had the Origin of Ten Thousand Beasts, his aptitude was extremely high, but he still had to fight for resources himself. The heavens were unfair, but they were also fair. Just like how Du Feng thought highly of Zhao Tianlei back then, Du Feng also thought highly of Zhao Zhi now, and decided to bring him along to explore the Skeleton Underground Palace.
"Ha ha ha, our luck is too good. Let's hurry up and enter."
Those outside the gray line who had yet to enter the Burial Grounds danced with joy. In this area known as the Land of Death, two of the three deadliest dangers had already erupted. At least within a month, they wouldn't erupt again. The Death Tornado and the Blood Fiend Strike both covered a very large area. Adventurers with weak abilities like them couldn't avoid them at all.
Now that these two had already erupted, only the Soul of Bones was left. It was said that the people and beasts who died in the Burial Grounds would suddenly come back to life at some point. The chances were very small, but whoever encountered the resurrected dead would have eight lifetimes of bad luck.
Those human warriors who were resurrected would become zombies, and those beasts who died would only be left with their skeletons. After resurrection, they could still attack explorers, and their attack power would increase. The most unlucky thing was to encounter the resurrected ancient beasts. Any one of them had monstrous strength. If one really encountered one, it was basically a situation of certain death.
Death Tornado, Blood Fiend Strike, and Soul of Bones. The Burial Grounds, these three fatal factors, each more dangerous than the last. Luckily, the area affected was each smaller than the last. If the Soul of Bones could also affect this side of the entrance, then the explorers wouldn't need to enter anymore. Hence, following this, everyone was mainly competing on luck. Strength only accounted for a small part.
Those explorers who were very confident in entering earlier probably had more than half of them already died. The remaining explorers with lower Cultivation Levels crossed the gray line happily and entered the Burial Grounds. There were already so many explorers who died at the front. It meant that their competitors were very few. As long as they were a little lucky and didn't encounter the Soul of Bones, they could smoothly go to the Skeleton Underground Palace to pick up treasures.
It was said that inside the Skeleton Underground Palace, there were treasures everywhere. Even if they were unable to enter the deeper areas, they could casually search above and also get a few mystic grade weapons, armor, as well as mystic grade combat techniques, Spirit Gathering Pills, and other good stuff. To those top genius disciples, mystic grade items were nothing. But to these small fries who accompanied them in, it was already considered good stuff.
The Skeleton Underground Palace had a total of nine levels. The first and second underground levels mainly contained mystic grade items. The first level had a larger number of treasures, mainly mystic grade weapons and armor. The second underground level had mystic grade combat techniques and some pills. If they were lucky, they might also find a quasi-earth grade item in a corner. Even if it was a quasi-earth grade item, it was much stronger than a mystic grade item. That was something that only the elders had.
As for the third underground level, it was not a place that these groups who entered later dared to imagine. Without the strength of the fifth level of the Martial Condensation Realm, one could not even pass through the door in front of the stairs. Hence, the treasures in the first and second level were fought over by martial artists of the Qi realm and martial artists of the Martial Condensation realm. Martial artists of the Qi realm dominated.
The second underground level was for martial artists of the Martial Condensation realm. Although this level also mainly contained mystic grade items, most of them were high grade mystic grade items, which were worth fighting over. If one or two quasi-earth grade treasures appeared, it would definitely cause a commotion. Casualties were unavoidable.
"Senior Du, do you think I can go to the second underground level?"
Zhao Zhi was a little nervous because his Cultivation Level had not broken through to the Martial Condensation Realm. If he went to the second underground level, he would probably be abused.
"No need to rush. Wait for three days before going out. I'll give you a few of those broken things."
