Zhou Wen looked up and saw a monument erected in front of the mountain. On it were the words "Paradise Mountain."
Zhou Wen immediately knew where he was.
Back when he followed his Eldest Senior Brother, Liu Yun, to the Taklamakan Desert, Liu Yun had once told him that there were four terrifying dimensional zones in the desert.
Death Valley Netherworld City, Endless Sea of Stars, Paradise Mountain.
Zhou Wen had already been to Netherworld City and the Endless Sea of Stars. He had only heard of Paradise Mountain's name, but he never expected to see it when he teleported back.
Since he couldn't leave, Zhou Wen decided not to. He released Ice Maiden and Jade Rabbit and carried Demonic Neonate as he carefully sized up the Paradise Mountain stone monument.
At the bottom of the stone tablet, there was a small palm pattern carved on it.
It's a waste not to go down a dungeon that's delivered to my doorstep. Zhou Wen took out his phone and snapped a picture of the tiny palm symbol. He immediately entered the download screen.
I heard from Liu Yun that no one who enters Paradise Mountain can come out alive. I wonder what's so mysterious about this mountain? Now that I don't have the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder, it's not easy to wander around. I'll wait for the game to download and scout the way in-game. Just as Zhou Wen was thinking, he heard a flirtatious voice coming from Paradise Mountain.
Looking up, he saw a group of bikini-clad beauties laughing and having fun. Their beautiful legs made him dizzy.
Zhou Wen sat outside the mountain and watched the beauties play. His body seemed to have an involuntary urge to go over. Thankfully, his willpower was firm. With a thought, he made the urge vanish.
With a thought, he circulated the Wheel of Destiny and looked at the beauties. His pupils immediately constricted.
Those weren't beauties. They were just extremely large, ugly, and evil gray rats.
What was even stranger was that the gray rats stood like humans. They wore gray cloaks and their eyes swirled with an evil glint.
Upon seeing this scene, Zhou Wen summoned the Bronze Sparrow Sword. The flaming blade tore out of its scabbard and flew into Paradise Mountain, instantly killing a few evil gray-robed rats on the spot.
A large number of gray-robed rats crawled out of the Bliss Mountain Forest. Their eyes shone brightly as they formed a huge psychic force field. The more gray-robed rats there were, the stronger the psychic force field would be.
Zhou Wen immediately understood why so many people had come to Paradise Mountain in the past, but none of them had returned alive.
These gray-clothed rats were good at mental attacks, and they could also concentrate their mental strength together, which was similar to the joint attack of the Musical Note Sprites.
However, these gray-robed rats were even more terrifying. Mental attacks were difficult to defend against. Furthermore, they were at the Epic stage. Furthermore, there were many of them. Even a Mythical creature would easily lose themselves if they suffered a mental attack from them.
In the beginning, the Bronze Sparrow Sword wasn't affected. It was still killing the gray-robed rats and igniting flames everywhere on Paradise Mountain.
However, when the thirteen red-robed rats appeared on Paradise Mountain, the Bronze Sparrow Sword was affected. Not only did it stop its slaughter, but it even turned around and charged at Zhou Wen.
Nice, thirteen Mythical rats. This Paradise Mountain is something. Don't tell me there's another Terror-grade existence? Zhou Wen felt immense mental pressure as he thought.
However, his willpower was extremely tenacious to begin with. Now that he had the Wheel of Destiny activated, he could see the true bodies of the rats. He wouldn't be fooled no matter what. With a wave of his hand, he grabbed the Bronze Sparrow Sword that had turned against him.
However, the mental strength of the rats was rather powerful. With countless Epic gray-robed rats and the thirteen red-robed rats working together, even the Terror-grade Jade Rabbit was affected.
Jade Rabbit's eyes emitted red hearts as it slowly walked towards Undying Mountain.
"Wake it up for me." Zhou Wen felt embarrassed for Jade Rabbit. It was at the Terror grade after all, but it had been lured by a bunch of rats.
Ice Maiden summoned a huge ice cube and smashed it onto Jade Rabbit's head. Only then did Jade Rabbit wake up.
Although Jade Rabbit is a pure strength-type Companion Beast and its mental strength isn't its specialty, it's at the Terror grade after all. To be able to affect it, these rats' mental strength skills are no trifling matter. Zhou Wen saw that Ice Maiden seemed to have the ability to restrain such mental strength skills, so he got her to ascend Paradise Mountain and kill the rats first.
Ice Maiden wasn't in the mood to play with these rats. After transforming into her Terror form, she used Ice Blast to blast most of the gray-robed rats into ice shards.
Seven or eight of the thirteen red-robed rats died, and a few were injured.
When Zhou Wen saw the dimensional crystals and Companion Eggs on the ground, he hurriedly summoned a group of Musical Sprites and got them to go in and pick up the dimensional crystals and Companion Eggs.
Seeing that the remaining red-robed rats were about to escape, Ice Maiden waved her hand and a cold gust of air surged out, freezing them into ice sculptures.
Seeing that the rats were all dead, Ice Maiden was about to return when she suddenly heard an ear-piercing scream coming from the top of Paradise Mountain.
Squeak! The sound was extremely sharp. Ice Maiden was in Paradise Mountain, and when she heard the sound, her expression changed slightly. Her body emitted an icy glow as though she was resisting some terrifying force.
The Musical Note Sprites that Zhou Wen had released into Paradise Mountain seemed to have lost their souls as they floated towards the top of the mountain.
Zhou Wen stood outside Paradise Mountain and felt his mind go adrift. He almost couldn't help but walk into Paradise Mountain.
Thankfully, his willpower was too strong. He was only slightly dazed for a moment before he immediately recovered.
Jade Rabbit was struck again, and Zhou Wen directly sent it back into the Chaos Bead. Zhou Wen originally imagined that he couldn't use the Chaos Bead without the First Order of Chaos, but he realized that his Essence Energy could still activate the Chaos Bead without being affected.
This made Zhou Wen suspect that it wasn't that the Essence Energy Arts couldn't be used, but that they were temporarily unusable for some reason.
Ice Maiden's eyes focused as she rushed towards the top of Paradise Mountain. Soon, she heard a terrifying collision sound coming from the top of the mountain.
Seeing that there weren't many rats left on Paradise Mountain, Zhou Wen decided to walk in himself, planning to pick up the dimensional crystals and Companion Eggs.
It was especially so for the dimensional crystals. Zhou Wen happened to need to replenish his stats. The thirteen red-robed rats had dropped five stat crystals and a Companion Egg. They were perfect for replenishing.
Even a Mythical creature couldn't withstand the psyche influence from the mountaintop. However, Zhou Wen was still able to maintain himself. After walking into Paradise Mountain, he picked up all the stat crystals and absorbed them without any regard for the consequences, allowing his stats to rapidly increase.
Just as Zhou Wen picked up the Companion Egg, he suddenly saw a stream of light slash down from the mountaintop. It was an ancient sword with an antique charm.
If Zhou Wen hadn't been able to see the power of the Terror grade, he probably wouldn't have known how he died. He would have been killed by the ancient sword.
