The Shadow Ninja …
Disappeared!
Once Happy entered the tunnel of the royal mausoleum, he did not run into a single ninja on his way. He did not sense the chilling presence from the shadows at the corners of the walls either. The Shadow Ninja who retreated from the hall seemed to have vanished into thin air. This abnormal situation caused Happy to sense a hint of uneasiness.
It was right.
Usually, this sort of situation meant that the Shadow Ninja was certain that she could not do anything alone and returned to the depths of the royal mausoleum to search for helpers. She was prepared to rely on the other ninjas in the royal mausoleum to attract attention while she attacked in secret.
This was something he did not want to see.
If he had been in his previous life and entered the place, he would have already reached Life and Death Realm. Forget about a Shadow Ninja, even if he had to face Ninja King in full Golden Armor, he would not be afraid.
But right then, his strength was not enough for him to sweep through the royal mausoleum. Not only did he not have Eight Directions Agility, he did not have a high-tier throwing knife technique, and he did not have any fourth-echelon equipment. In fact, he only had Seven Stars Sword that he could use, and it was not even at Grandmaster Realm. He might be able to fight against the Shadow Ninja in this state, but it would not be easy for him to fight against other ninjas. He could not handle all of them.
However …
This did not stop him from entering the royal mausoleum.
During the early stages of World of Martial Arts, some of the normal ninjas such as the Knife-throwing Ninjas, Japanese Ninjas, and Cloning Ninjas could drop high-grade masterpieces that the sects coveted, and the drop rate was not low either.
The rare Shadow Warriors who wandered about the royal mausoleum were all in Life and Death Realm, and the chances of them dropping high-grade masterpieces were one hundred percent. If they ran into supreme-grade ones, they might even drop two of them. Also, there were at least three to five Shadow Ninjas in the first level, and they could drop supreme-grade masterpieces and some unique items.
The amount of masterpieces Happy obtained from this trip could be described as great!
If Beautiful Robes Faction could obtain this wealth, their overall strength and wealth would increase by leaps and bounds!
However, if he moved together with Beautiful Robes Faction and the other sects, most of the resources on the way might be divided up. Hence, Happy charged forward and skipped a few side halls and forks on the map before he identified the path that led to the depths of the royal mausoleum.
On the way …
Aside from the three side halls at the very front, there was a brocade box in each hall that was in perfect condition.
Happy did not even spare him a glance.
He could not deny that each box contained at least one utensil that was worth thousands of gold coins. It could be considered a small fortune, but Happy knew that there were a few ninjas hidden near each box. If he broke the box and triggered a trap, he might be able to handle the Japanese Ninjas, but if he ran into Knife-throwing Ninjas or Cloning Ninjas, his head would be in so much pain.
The Knife-wielding Ninjas never engaged in close-quarters combat with players, and their body movements were brilliant. Players would need to chase after them for a long period of time before they could kill them. Besides, the throwing knives they repeatedly threw were not to be underestimated, and they were very troublesome. The Cloning Ninjas were even more troublesome. They could create a few illusory bodies that were exactly the same as them, and each of them had half of their real body's fighting strength. As long as the real body did not die, they would not die. Being surrounded by three fearless ninjas would not be any easier than chasing after the Knife-wielding Ninjas.
Therefore!
Happy would rather not have those things. He could just move past them and head deeper into the royal mausoleum!
Phantasm Body Movement Skill was much faster than Cloud Treading Steps. A few minutes later, a huge stone block appeared in front of Happy. The forks to the left and right were connected to each other, forming a square tunnel in the shape of a circle.
The passageway was spacious, and it felt like a hall. However, it was very quiet inside, without a single sound.
He furrowed his brows.
Happy stopped warily.
He brought out a map from his Universe Bag. It showed the topographical map of the royal mausoleum, and the red dot that represented him stopped at the entrance of a huge hall in the shape of a circle. There were two rather eye-catching small halls that were sunken in. When he stood there, he could actually see some of the corners of the small halls. There seemed to be a table that looked like it was made of wood or made of gold.
When he saw this, Happy's gaze gradually darkened.
'I'm here!'
Life and Death Circuit was the second dangerous region after Ghost Face Wall, the first obstacle in the royal mausoleum.
'I won't be able to escape from this tough battle!'
Happy smiled wanly and slowly put away the map.
In truth, the other main reason why he chose to leave the group and go solo was because of his understanding toward the traps in the royal mausoleum. There were many things that he could not explain to others beforehand or explain clearly!
Based on his memories from his previous life, the second obstacle, Life and Death Circuit, could be considered a chain trap. Not only was it unexpected, once it was triggered, it was the same as cutting off one's own path of survival.
If a group of Mystical Realm players carelessly triggered a trap while they were clueless, they could be said to have a slim chance of survival!
Even Happy was not an exception!
Originally, he could ignore the traps and leave straight away. As long as he did not shatter the brocade boxes in the two side halls and did not covet the two supreme grade masterpieces that might appear in the place, he could completely avoid going through this.
But he could not …
He knew.
If the group of people who came later found that the traps in the place were still intact, they would definitely destroy the brocade boxes without hesitation and take the items inside!
Beautiful Robes Faction …
There was a high possibility that they would be dragged into this place.
Hence, this battle could not be avoided!
He slowly walked into the circular hall with a huge square stone pillar at the center. The situation in the two small halls to his left and right was clearly reflected in his eyes.
To his left was a table that looked like it was made of wood or made of gold. There was a black sandalwood box placed on it, and it looked incredibly valuable and unique. The small hall to his right was empty. There was a bright patterned carpet on the floor, and there was a long weapon box that seemed to be used to store weapons on it.
Happy's eyes lit up, and his gaze landed on the sandalwood box.
Every single time the royal mausoleum was opened, the items inside would change randomly. However, there were generally five types of items.
One of them was a noble brocade box that was used to store gold and jade utensils. The other was a rack used to store equipment. It could be seen with just one glance. The third was a weapon box. There were two other types. One of them was a normal book box that was used to store martial art manuals. The last one was a sandalwood box that contained rather unique items. Most of them were medicinal pills, hidden weapons, and other small items.
The value of the sandalwood box might be the lowest, but at certain times, it could bring out extraordinary effects. It was also the surprise that Happy hoped to obtain the most, since he did not need any masterpieces or weapons.
Thud …
Thud …
Under the illumination of the eternal lantern on the wall, Happy slowly walked to the small hall to the left where the sandalwood box was placed. A faint golden body fortification quickly covered his entire body while he changed his equipment.
With each step he took, his aura increased slightly!
When Happy arrived in front of the sandalwood box in the small hall, he stood still.
His Yellow Dragon Archer Gear fluttered, and the qi in the small hall surged!
Happy had already pushed his aura to the peak of Mystical Realm. His Golden Bell Cocoon had nearly reached Mastery, and it formed a qi wall that seemed to have gained physical form half a foot in front of him. It was as mighty as a bell! It was indestructible!
Even so, Happy's expression remained cautious and solemn. He held his Silver Wolf Emperor Breaker Sword in a reverse grip and reached for the sandalwood box on the table.
Slap!
A clear sound rose, and the sandalwood box was opened. There was a black medicinal pill inside.
Wisps of smoke suddenly appeared in the small hall to the left, and dozens of cold presences rose from it.
'It's here!'
