Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Time passed quickly, and it was dawn in the blink of an eye.
The monsters turned into black smoke and burrowed into the ground, disappearing from the surface.
‘The ghouls have finally subsided. We’re safe now!” The empress exclaimed happily.
However, Bai Xiaosa’s face was extremely tired because his Heavenly Eye had not closed the entire night. Now, he was completely exhausted.
Ling Feng looked at the exhausted flood dragon behind him. He planned to send these two people away and then possess them. He wanted to see what was hidden under this stele.
‘Xiaosa, can your Heavenly Eye see what’s under this Soul Suppressing Stele?” Ling Feng asked.
Bai Xiaosa shook his head. “Ling Feng, the thing below is extremely terrifying. almost went blind just by looking at it. Don’t make things difficult for me!”
Ling Feng had a rough idea now. There should be something extremely terrifying suppressed below. He divided his consciousness into his clone and walked over to the Soul Suppressing Stele. He stuck his head out and looked into it.
It was pitch-black inside, but he could see the surging black mist. Other than that, he could not see anything else.
It was extraordinary. What was hidden underground? And the ghouls disappeared immediately after dawn. It was bizarre. Could the thing underground be the reason for the ghouls’ appearance?
Could it be that this was the source of the ghouls? Ling Feng was extremely curious and asked his clone to attack. After the clone used the energy slash to attack, the black fog instantly surged, but it did not take long before to calm down.
Could it be that he had to go down personally?
While Ling Feng was in a dilemma, a strange phenomenon suddenly occurred. The ground shook, and Ling Feng shouted in his heart. ‘This place is going to collapse soon. Hurry up and leave!”
At this moment, the underground sound became even louder, as if it was about to split open. The surrounding stone walls also shook violently, and a bunch of gravel fell down.
Ling Feng immediately ran, followed by Bai Xiaosa and the empress. The few of them were very fast, and when they reached the ground safely, they found that the entire cave had collapsed.
Looking at the collapsed cave, Ling Feng was a little depressed. He hadn’t even personally explored how it had collapsed. He had to dig it out bit by bit later, which was really troublesome.
At this moment, a ball of black fog rose up and gradually formed a huge black pillar. This pillar of light directly pierced through the sky.
Then, a very strange energy fluctuation came out of the cave and swept across ten thousand meters.
‘This fluctuation is too strange. Why do I suddenly feel so sleepy?” Bai Xiaosa said. Before he could finish, he fell into a deep sleep.
Not only that, but the empress also fell asleep after a few seconds.
Seeing the situation of the two, Ling Feng immediately got his clone to bring them to a safe place. At this time, he could look down at the entire capital.
The streets were filled with dead people whose souls had been taken away. There was not a single living person left. The capital seemed to have turned into a grave overnight.
Ling Feng could only sigh.
Immediately after, the fluctuation struck again. Ling Feng immediately used the Soul Ball Protection Shield skill, forming countless protective shields in his consciousness. This strange fluctuation did not affect the protective shield, so Ling Feng was relieved.
He raised his head and saw that the black pillar of light had disappeared, but a giant had appeared. This giant was more than ten meters tall and looked like a human. His skin was white, but he had no hair. There was a hole between his eyebrows, and black gas kept coming out.
As soon as the black gas appeared, it was dissipated by the sun. At this time, Ling Feng finally understood that the ghouls’ origin might be because of this giant.
‘But what’s the situation with this giant? Where did he come from? Could he be the divine item that the higher-ups were talking about?” As Ling Feng thought about this, he was puzzled. Then, he heard the system’s voice.
Beep. “Host, you only need to use level points to search for the target’s information. ”
Ling Feng almost forgot about the system.
The system prompted again, ‘This time, I need 5 million upgrade points to check the information.’ “Isn’t that too much?” ‘Do you wish to inquire?
‘Can it be less?
‘No, do you want to check?”
As expected of a robot, there was no room for bargaining. Even though the upgrade points required were too much, Ling Feng still gritted his teeth and confirmed it.
‘Check!’
Even though he had used all his points to upgrade his talent because he had edified too many ghouls last night, his points had soared to more than 50 million.
It was enough for him to level up again. However, he was not in a hurry to level up now. It was more important to check the information about this giant first because it would likely be the divine item that the higher-ups had mentioned.
‘Beep, inquiry complete.”
[Name: Corpse of a God]
[Divinity: Shadow. Currently dug out.]
[Skills: Dark Shadow, Power of Faith, Assimilation Qi...]
[Information: Although the god is dead, its will is hidden in its flesh and blood. Flesh and blood are great nourishment, and the assimilation gas may erode the soul.]
After reading this information, Ling Feng was extremely surprised. This thing was already dead, but it could still affect living beings. Gods were indeed very powerful.
‘But how do we obtain his ability?”
‘Could it be that I can use the second talent to directly devour him?”
“What if it’s useless? But it’s worth a try...”
The undulations of the gods swept across the surrounding area, and the souls that were affected were eroded. Ling Feng had the protection of the protective shield, so he was spared.
He looked at the god’s corpse and confirmed that the other party was not in danger before he was relieved. He stretched out his palm and silently recited his innate skill: Life Absorption.
At this moment, a small black hole appeared in his palm. Then, he became famished and wanted to eat and drink. He resisted the urge to put his hands and feet on the god’s corpse.
In the next moment, a strange power stopped Ling Feng from devouring the corpse. Ling Feng saw that a black light was now enveloping the corpse of the god, blocking him.
“1 still want to try.”
Ling Feng thought so and changed the place to devour, but the result was still the same.
‘Could it be that his strength is too weak? The level of talent did not seem to be too high. However, this thing was already dead, yet it still had the energy to protect it. It was indeed strong enough!”
Glancing at the number of upgrade points, Ling Feng said, “System, upgrade the second talent.”
‘Beep, upgrade complete!”
‘Congratulations, your second talent has been upgraded to rank.”
‘After upgrading to level Life Absorption, the desire to eat and drink has weakened a little, but the speed of absorption has also increased.”
After upgrading his talent, he wanted to try it again. This time, the black hole in his palm was a little bigger than before. After using his talent, the urge to eat and drink lessened a little.
He placed his palm on the god’s corpse again and felt the resistance was a little weaker..
