After Du Yan left, Lu Wu's consciousness also left the underworld.
Originally, Lu Wu planned to give all the Yin souls to Du Yan as a bargaining chip for him to join the Rock Ghost King.
After all, in Lu Wu's opinion, the soul power he possessed was obviously more useful than the Yin souls.
However, this idea was stopped by Bei Li, so Lu Wu extracted 150,000 Yin souls and stored them in the Battle Artifact.
"Little Li, what's the use of these Yin souls?" Lu Wu asked Bei Li as his consciousness returned to the room.
"Of course it's useful. You should know that other people don't have artifacts that can control soul power like us, so they basically rely on Yin souls to forge weapons and equipment. Only high-level equipment would use rare soul stones. Moreover, Yin souls have another important use, which is to build shuttle tunnels."
"Can't soul power be used as well?" Lu Wu was stunned.
"It's different. Teleportation gates can be built with soul power, but shuttle tunnels can't. It requires sacrifices, and Yin souls are the objects used for teleportation. There's a big difference in nature."
Lu Wu rolled his eyes, "You know that I'm illiterate in the underworld."
Bei Li squinted her eyes and nodded, "Haven't we been thinking about the structure of the dungeon? These Yin souls can come in handy. The reason why I asked you to leave 150,000 Yin souls is that the sacrifice needed to connect to the Naraka Realm is exactly this number."
This time, Lu Wu understood and asked in surprise, "Does that mean that the function of the dungeon can be unlocked?"
Bei Li nodded, "Yes, I chose the Naraka Realm this time. It's a forbidden area in Naraka where demons are constantly born. It's very suitable for players to level up, especially assassins. They can find many of the materials they need to change their class in there."
"More importantly, the Naraka Realm has 18 levels. The lower you go, the stronger the demons will be. Therefore, it's especially challenging for growth-type players."
"How long will it take to build the shuttle formation?" Lu Wu asked after some thought.
"About an hour."
Lu Wu nodded and made an announcement through the Battle Artifact to all the players in the server.
[Server Announcement: The game will undergo maintenance in 10 minutes and the function of the dungeon will be unlocked at the same time. Stay tuned!]
After the announcement appeared, the players were in an uproar.
Lu Wu had also considered this point. After all, it would be too conspicuous to carve the formation outside the Mansion of the Dead. Moreover, he would have to appear at the scene in person. As the mastermind behind the scenes, it was better not to expose himself.
After waiting in the house for ten minutes, Lu Wu looked at the number of players who were online and found that there were still seventy to eighty thousand players who were still online.
Hence, he used the Divine Artifact's authority to forcefully kick all these players out of the game.
The players who had nowhere to go began to gather on the forum.
Crayon _ Shinchan: "Oh my god, I almost killed the Iron Zombie. It took me 20 minutes to kill it. Is there any compensation?
Peppa Boar: "I'm the same as above. I was fighting the Netherworld Strongman with my friends, but I was mercilessly kicked out of the game when I was about to die. I strongly request for maintenance and compensation. I don't ask for much, just a purple weapon."
A Mammoth: Haven't you guys noticed the main point? The instance dungeon is open!
Invincible Loneliness: "I'm collecting soul coins on a daily basis. I'm spending money to become stronger. Are there any players who are selling soul coins for a long time? Please add me and deduct 1234567."
Assassin _ Creed: "All the functions of this game are awesome. I'm looking forward to the instance dungeon. I'm looking forward to finding a team to explore the instance dungeon in advance. Let's grow together."
Xueli _ The _ Strongest: "I hope the drop rate of the instance dungeon is higher. I want to exchange for equipment, but unfortunately, I'll run out of soul coins. Poor thing."
It could be seen from the forum that the players had high expectations for the instance dungeon. Naturally, Lu Wu would not disappoint them. He brought Bei Li to the Underworld.
The crowded area around the Mansion of the Dead became very quiet after the maintenance was initiated. However, this was exactly what Lu Wu wanted.
The two of them walked around the Mansion of the Dead and finally chose a place that was neither too far nor too close to the Mansion of the Dead. They started to build the altar.
Of course, Lu Wu would always be a bystander when it came to such technical work.
Bei Li waved her hand and all the Yin spirits in the artifact were taken out. Suddenly, dark green jellyfish-like floating objects appeared in the surroundings.
At this moment, Bei Li began to manipulate the Yin energy. First, she drew a huge circle on the ground. Then, she started to draw a distorted pattern on the inside.
After more than ten minutes of carving, Bei Li waved her hand again with a serious look on her face. Suddenly, the Yin energy in the surroundings rushed towards the circle and solidified it. The circle began to shine with a black light.
"Buzz ~ Buzz ~"
As the pattern on the circle was almost solidified, the ground began to tremble slightly. A scarlet light shone through the carved patterns.
"Sacrifice!" Bei Li shouted. Suddenly, the Yin spirits floating around were all driven towards the core of the circle.
"Woo ~ Woo ~"
An ancient and sorrowful cry came from the circle. It was like a dying old man bidding farewell to the world at the last moment of his life.
Then, something happened that surprised Lu Wu. A pair of scarlet red arms with lava flowing on them suddenly stretched out from the circle. It grabbed forward forcefully and all the Yin spirits above the circle were sucked away.
Looking at the arms, Bei Li had a serious look on her face. She uttered a few words that Lu Wu could not understand at all.
After hearing what she said, the pair of arms made of lava shook slightly. An old sigh came from the circle. Then, the huge arms slowly sank until they disappeared.
The circle that Bei Li had carved turned into a scarlet circle. Light flowed within it and the bottom could not be seen.
"It's done!" Bei Li smiled happily. She looked at Lu Wu as if she wanted him to praise her.
Lu Wu patted Bei Li's little head, "What is this arm? Also, what did you say to him just now? "
Bei Li pouted, "Don't call him an arm. He is one of the oldest gods in the underworld. Although he is dead, he is still a supreme existence. I used the ancient sacrificial language to communicate with his remaining consciousness. He offered to sacrifice one hundred and fifty thousand Yin spirits in exchange for a passage to the Naraka Realm."
"So, he agreed?"
"Of course he agreed. Otherwise, it would be impossible to build this passage because he is the god who controls the Naraka Realm, one of the forbidden areas. Even after his death, he is still the only god of the Naraka Realm."
Lu Wu nodded, "So, do we have to do the same for other dungeons in the future?"
"Yes, all the forbidden areas have the remnant consciousness of the ancient gods of the underworld. It is precisely because of the dead ancient gods that those areas are called forbidden areas. Every forbidden area requires the permission of the gods to open up. So, you have to think of a way to instigate the players to plunder more Yin souls. That way, we can open up new dungeons continuously!"
