Battle of Ascension

Chapter 306: Bottomless Pit

Randy and Zhen Yi were unaware of Enigma who was going to evolve to Saint Grade Undead. Currently, they were standing before a pit. The pit was about five meters in diameter and the pit seemed to be bottomless.

Zhen Yi turned her head toward her husband, with a puzzled look, she asked, "Are sure it's here?"

Randy didn't give a response as he seemed to be checking something in the Battle System. After a while, Randy nodded his head as a response at her wife's question.

"Yes, it's here, right inside this pit," He gave a confirmation with his finger pointed toward inside the pit.

Afterward, Randy used his Fire Elemental Power and shot a fireball to the pit. The fireball illuminated the dark pit and showed the pit's wall. There was no something suspicious or dangerous.

After the fireball descended thirty meters, there was still nothing. The bottom of the pit could not be seen still.

Fifty meters

Hundred meters

Even after the fireball died, Randy and Zhen Yi still could not see the bottom of the pit. They looked each other, and they were hesitated to go down now.

However, in Randy's map showed them, they were right before an Ascension Chest. Yes, after they had successfully annihilated Barton Legion along with the remnant of the skeleton soldiers.

It took five days before Randy along with fifty Garuda's members to clean Barton Legion from Sumatera Island. Randy leveled up for one level while his wife gained three levels.

Afterward, Randy and Zhen Yi immediately headed out to where the Ascension Location was. However, what they found was a pit, a bottomless pit at that one.

Even though Randy and Zhen Yi were sure there was an Ascension Chest in the pit, but they hesitated to enter the pit.

However, it was sure the pit was not bottomless as it seemed because the map showed there was an Ascension Chest inside the pit. It just they could not see the bottom which made them uncomfortable and uneasy if they had to jump into the pit.

Randy hesitated, but the pit that looked like bottomless didn't stop him to get the Ascension Chest.

"I will enter the pit," Said Randy as he pulled out the two Infernal Blades and crimson flame shrouded his body.

Zhen Yi turned head at her husband. There were a worry and concern over her face. Even though her husband was strong, but the unknown was the scariest. Maybe, there was a stronger creature than her husband inside the pit.

"No worries, even there's beast or monster inside the pit. At the best, it's Mythical Grade one, that kind of beast will not be able to kill me," Even though Randy's words sounded arrogant, but his words convinced Zhen Yi.

"All right then, let we enter the pit together," Zhen Yi responded with a smile.

Even though there was a higher grade beast than the Mythical Grade beast inside the pit. If she was to enter the pit together with Randy, then there was no need for her to worry with two people entered the pit.

Randy actually didn't want to enter the pit together with his wife. However, he clearly understood of his wife; he would not be able to prevent her to not enter the pit together.

Randy nodded his head and Zhen Yi had a bright smile on her face at her husband's response. He and his wife looked again in the pit. Even though they decided to enter together, they were still nervous about it.

Randy inhaled a deep breath and Zhen Yi followed her husband. After a few moments, Randy looked at her wife and nodded his head, indicating to get ready to jump into the pit.

Zhen Yi took another deep breath before nodding her head, indicating she was also ready to jump in.

Even though they looked nervous, but there was anticipation too in their eyes. They were excited for the thrill that waited for them ahead. It was like Bungee Jumping, but they had no rope on their waist.

Randy never tried Bungee Jumping before because he was scared. But now, he didn't need to be scared again. The same as Zhen Yi, she also never tried Bungee Jumping. After all, with her situation, she could never have fun like this.

However now, Randy didn't need to be scared anymore with his current strength and Zhen Yi also could have more fun with no one shackled her anymore

Randy held his wife's left hand and counted down from three to one. He made a gesture of counted down with his left hand.

Three

Two

One

Randy raised his hands up and Zhen Yi also followed her husband. Raising their hand, they jumped in together. Of course, Randy still held his Inferno Sword and Zhen Yi had her Ice Fury in her right hand.

Whoosh!

"Haaa!" Randy screamed as he jumped in and Zhen Yi also followed after her husband with her scream, "Yaaaaa!"

Thump!

"Haaaa eh!?" Randy let out a surprised exclamation and Zhen Yi also stopped screaming. They had a dumbfounded look on their face as they found something unbelievable.

Randy had his head looking at his feet and Zhen Yi also looked at her feet. Surprisingly, their feet were above the ground. They had their feet on the ground; they reached the bottom of the pit already.

'What happened with the bottomless pit??? What happened with the thrill they were waiting for???' It was what in their mind after Randy and Zhen Yi.

It didn't even take a minute; it was less than ten seconds, and they landed on the ground already. Somehow, Randy felt someone playing a prank on him and he could not help bu disappointed.

Soon, Randy felt someone poked his waist. Randy turned his head toward his wife and saw Zhen Yi was pointing her finger to the top. She told him to look up.

Randy looked up subconsciously, and he sunlight greeted his eyes. He saw the pit he jumped down was only ten meters deep as the sunlight assaulted his eyes.

It was really like someone played a prank over him.

However, There must be an obstacle each time he found the Ascension Chest. He got the first Ascension Chest after he experienced how mighty the dragon was. It was only an image of a dragon, but that image left a deep trauma at him at that time.

The second Ascension Chest, he must overcome the first Emperor Grade Beast, The Blue Tibre - Xyrras before he could get the second Ascension Chest.

Now, the third Ascension Chest, there something unknown which made his fireball could not reach the bottom. He felt there was an illusion over the pit which made the people who looked at the pit thought the pit was bottomless.

If he or Zhen Yi scared over the seemed bottomless pit, they would miss the third Ascension Chest. The third Ascension Chest was about the mental obstacle.

"No wonder those skeletons could not find the Ascension Chest," Randy murmured in a low voice.

They were in Jambi Territory, a territory who had been conquered by Barton Legion. However. the skeletons didn't find the Ascension Chest, it was because of the seemed bottomless pit, and none skeletons dared to jump in like them.

Afterward, Randy scanned the surrounding. The surrounding was like a normal cave he found. There was nothing special and based on the size of the surrounding, it was more like ten square meters room.

Also, with the light which emanated from the Ascension Chest. Randy and Zhen Yi with ease located the Ascension chest.

Zhen Yi's face shone brightly as she found the Ascension Chest. The Ascension Chest emanated light in the seven colors and Zhen Yi fond over her face. There was also curiosity and anticipation on her face as she looked at the Ascension Chest.

This was the first time she found an Ascension Chest and of course, she would feel like this.

Zhen Yi touched the surface of the Ascension Chest and she could feel the coolness from the Ascension Chest. She touched there and here as curiosity could be seen from her face.

Randy was just watching her wife from where he stood. Somehow, he felt amused at his wife who was like a kid who found a new toy. Looking at his wife, he remembered that the first time he met her.

Zhen Yi almost killed him at the first meet. However, of course, Luck played on that encounter. The first time he met her, her face was cold. After he married her, she had her cold and taut look.

However, after she freed from Zhen Family's family control. She made the first happy smile and less restrained. Now, Zhen Yi completely changed, it was a good change, and Randy glad that he could make his wife happy.

He was reminiscing the past, but soon, Randy felt like there was someone staring at him. But of course, it was his wife who stared at him.

Zhen Yi was staring at him with a puppy eyes and over her face written, "Let me open the chest! Let me open the chest! Let me open the chest!"

Randy smiled and nodded his head. He had not planned to open the chest with his Luck Stat as he had another use for the Luck Stat, it was to find the Elemental Seed for his guild member.

Zhen Yi's face turned bright at her husband's consent. She seemed to be happy for opening the first Ascension Chest for her.

Zhen Yi turned her head over the chest. She was so eager to open the chest, but she didn't open the chest immediately. Also, she seemed to be nervous as her shoulders kept fidgeting.

Zhen Yi looked at the Ascension Chest intently as she took a deep breath. After that, she stretched her hand out to open the Ascension Chest but stopped in the half-way.

She retracted her hand back. Zhen Yi rubbed her hands, and she prayed afterward.

Randy could hear his wife was speaking in a low voice. He could hear it. She was praying to get a good item from the Ascension Chest.

Afterward, Zhen Yi stretched her hand out again to open the Ascension Chest. This time, she didn't stop her hands in the half-way and opened the Ascension Chest slowly.

The blinding light came out from inside the Ascension Chest. Randy and Zhen Yi lost their sight for moments. The blinding light subsided slowly and the item inside the Ascension Chest revealed itself before them.
