This place was 100 metres underground, and was at least 5 kilometres away from the exit. Moreover, there was a mysterious energy sealing off the exit, making it a sealed space. Moreover, the sealing was so powerful that even the Spatial Orb's power was unable to escape.
Moon Shadow's effects were about to end, and although Ling Chen was shocked, he did not panic. He decisively rushed behind the Evil Black Dragon and activated 'Vanishing Shadow', causing his body to disappear.
The light of the Moon Shadow dissipated, and the sleeping beast opened its eyes at this moment. It was a pair of red eyes, as red as blood. When it opened its eyes, a terrifying red light illuminated the entire space, and an energy aura that was countless times more terrifying swept through every corner of the space, causing the air to stop flowing in an instant.
Ling Chen's footsteps stopped. Although he was invisible, and was using the Feng Chen Sect's powerful invisibility skill, facing an awakened Ancient Beast, he did not dare to move at all, and even held his breath. With Vanishing Shadow activated, unless he revealed an opening, ordinary creatures would not be able to detect him. However, the Evil Black Dragon was one of the East Ocean Continent's 10 Ancient Beasts, and was the Sunrise City's guardian beast. How could its detection abilities be compared to ordinary creatures? He didn't doubt Vanishing Shadow's power, but he couldn't take this risk.
The awakened Ancient Beast didn't know why it had awakened, or what had awoken it. It straightened its body and rotated its terrifying crimson eyes, scanning every inch of the land around it and sensing every inch of space around it. Slowly, it turned its head and looked towards where Ling Chen was. Ling Chen held his breath and slowed his heartbeat, allowing himself to enter a calm and peaceful state. He felt the gigantic crimson eyes look towards where he was, but it did not stop and swept past him.
Ling Chen relaxed a bit, but the danger was not over. The awakened Ancient Beast did not find anything strange, but it did not lie down and go back to sleep. Instead, it stood up and opened its eyes, silently looking towards the passageway. Obviously, the lack of results did not dispel its suspicions. It seemed to be using silence to wait for a possible target to appear on its own, or for it to reveal a flaw.
Time slowly passed in a deathly silence … Ten seconds … Twenty seconds … Absolute Shadow's effect disappeared, and Ling Chen's body appeared in the air.
This time, Ling Chen did not dare to move at all.
Not only could Jue Ying hide his body, but he could also hide his aura. Once Jue Ying disappeared, he had nowhere to hide. He had to control his own aura. Fortunately, he was at the Evil Black Dragon's tail. The Evil Black Dragon's back was facing him, and Vanishing Shadow disappeared. The Evil Black Dragon didn't react at all, so it clearly hadn't discovered him.
Do not look back!
Ling Chen controlled his breathing and heartbeat as he shouted in his heart. Vanishing Shadow had a cooldown of 100 seconds. In other words, he would not be able to enter Stealth for at least 80 seconds. Now, as long as the Evil Black Dragon turned around, it would be able to see him. Or, as long as Ling Chen made the slightest movement, the slightest sound … even the slightest movement of the air, it would immediately alert the Evil Black Dragon.
He was confident that if he called himself second in terms of hiding his aura, then no one in this world had the qualifications to call themselves first. Even Instructor Hell, who had completely crushed him, couldn't compare to him in terms of hiding. Under his full control, the aura he emitted was not even as strong as a blade of grass that had just sprouted. As long as he maintained this state, even an Ancient Vicious Beast would not be able to sense his existence.
Do not look back … do not look back … do not look back!!
Under his inner shout, the Evil Black Dragon, who had been silent for half a minute, did not disappoint him … and made a turning motion. Its neck began to slowly turn, and with a very slow speed, it carefully scanned every corner of this space.
Fuck!!
Ling Chen's entire body tensed … with the Evil Black Dragon's eyes, as long as it turned its neck thirty degrees, it would be able to see where he was. Ling Chen inwardly gritted his teeth. Could it be that he had no choice but to force his way out?
He had used up all three of his Broken Shadows today against the Japanese players, and with the protection of the Evil God's Mask and the Lunar Scourge, it was almost impossible for him to escape from an Ancient Vicious Beast's pursuit. Moreover, this underground tunnel was 5 kilometres long, and he couldn't use Spatial Evasion to escape. This completely eliminated any possibility of him escaping. Ling Chen's mind spun as he racked his brains for a way out. In the end, he gritted his teeth …
He could only take a gamble!
Maintaining his original posture, he willed something to appear in his hand. It was a pineapple-shaped item with a pineapple-like body, pineapple-like colour, and pineapple-like leaves …
That's right, it was a pineapple.
At the same time, he inwardly chanted, "Pineapple, pineapple!"
After chanting a mystical incantation, Ling Chen's body silently disappeared, and the pineapple in his hand appeared where he had been standing.
(Note: [Furious Pineapple]: Effect 1: [Pineapple Bomb]: When thrown, it will explode, causing the surrounding space to tremble. There is a 100% chance to stun all targets within 50 metres for at least 5 seconds. There is no damage. After exploding, the Furious Pineapple will disappear. If the Furious Pineapple is caught before it hits the ground, it can be prevented from exploding. Effect 2: [Pineapple, pineapple]: Hold it in your hand and chant 'Pineapple, pineapple', turning you into a large pineapple. No creature of any level or grade will be able to see your true form. The effect lasts for 10 minutes. After the effect ends, the Furious Pineapple will disappear.)
At this moment, the Evil Black Dragon looked over. If this pineapple was seen by the Evil Black Dragon, it would definitely be alerted. In this Underground Space that it had guarded for many years, a creature like a pineapple would never appear. However, compared to its massive body, the pineapple was simply too small. Moreover, the pineapple that Ling Chen had turned into was right next to the Evil Black Dragon's tail, less than 30 centimetres away. The Evil Black Dragon's tail was 10 metres long, and the thickest part of its tail was 2 metres thick. The thick tail completely covered the pineapple, and unless the Evil Black Dragon moved its tail, it would be impossible to see it.
The Evil Black Dragon didn't seem to want to make any noise, so it didn't move its tail. After looking back and forth four or five times, as if it had finally confirmed that nothing was wrong, it laid down and closed its scarlet eyes, causing the dark red space to return to its original dusky state.
Before long, heavy and even breathing sounds were heard again. The Evil Black Dragon seemed to have fallen asleep again.
But the pineapple that Ling Chen had transformed into remained motionless … Five minutes passed … Ten minutes passed … Big pineapple disappeared silently, while Ling Chen maintained his original posture and reappeared in the air.
A seven-foot man had transformed into a pineapple! Though he had no choice, it wasn't a pleasant experience. Ling Chen inhaled and activated Vanishing Shadow. His figure and aura were concealed perfectly. He lightened his footsteps and tiptoed towards the exit. After fifty meters, Vanishing Shadow disappeared, and his footsteps became even lighter … He gritted his teeth and walked for a kilometer in an extremely careful manner. Only then did he take a deep breath and run like mad, getting closer and closer to the exit.
It was a dangerous situation, but he didn't expect to be saved by the pineapple that he had obtained from the Lucky Cat!
Angry Pineapple had two uses. One was to cause a large area of effect stun. When he first entered the Elven territory, he relied on this ability to escape. As for the second use, he had always ignored it, but this time it was incredibly useful.
Back then, he had obtained 5 Angry Pineapples from the Lucky Cat, but now, he only had 2 left.
Ling Chen didn't stop at all. Because he had walked here before, the rest of the journey was much faster. In less than 45 minutes, Ling Chen could see faint natural light coming from above. Under the light, he could see the stone steps leading upwards.
Walking up the stone steps, he soon returned to the entrance. Just like before, as the Lunar Scourge neared, the black light on the door disappeared. As soon as Ling Chen walked out, he took out a Spatial Orb and escaped. Not a single one of the four hundred guards in the surroundings noticed anything.
"Whew …"
Coming from a place with no one around, Ling Chen sat on the ground and let out a long breath before laughing heartily.
Indeed, he should laugh. Although he had experienced a thrilling experience, his superfluous actions out of curiosity had given him a completely unexpected and pleasant harvest! It was an incredibly pleasant surprise.
"God Orb! I actually found a God Orb there! This is god-like luck! "Ling Chen couldn't help but yell out. Not only had he obtained a God Orb, but even though the entire process had seemed quite dangerous, it had actually been incredibly smooth. He didn't have to fight, he didn't have to put his life on the line, and he didn't have to pay a heavy price to obtain it! It was as if he was fated to obtain this God Orb.
Moreover, today was only his first day in the East Ocean Continent.
Qi Yue had said that this God Orb's aura was incredibly powerful, and it was most likely the most powerful of the 12 God Orbs. Ling Chen calmly took it out from his bag … it was about the size of a ping pong ball, and it gave off a faint silver light. Within the ball, there was an 'ω' symbol.
This symbol was …
[Libra Orb]: Type: Energy Orb, Grade: Mysterious God, Stats: None. Equipment Requirements: Can only be socketed in the Lunar Scourge.
Effects: After using any skill (including own skills and equipment skills), there is a 50% chance of the cooldown being reset.
