Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts-Chapter 692 - 73 Clothes and Token_1

The distant roar slowly subsided, but Wen Yu could sense the constant collision of various complex Spiritual Fluctuations in the air. For sentient beings, communicating via Spiritual Fluctuations was indeed an effective way to transcend language barriers.

Wen Yu didn't concern himself with the subsequent developments of Tang Haofei's alliance—it had nothing to do with him. No matter how formidable the military became, they could, at best, pick up the scraps he didn't want. With the Almighty Demon Vine present, Wen Yu was confident that the benefits destined for him wouldn't be snatched away by others!

Moreover, a deeper thought stirred within Wen Yu—for instance, what if the military's strength were enhanced further...?

Witnessing the utter destruction of the once-mighty Universe of Immortals and Heroes, learning the truth of the Dominator's malevolent intentions toward professionists, and realizing that even the Almighty Immortal Emperor, in all his power, could not escape the Dominator's grasp—the only word to describe Wen Yu's profound inner state was fear.

To survive, I can't rely solely on myself. Even if my individual strength reached its zenith, perhaps attaining the level of the former Almighty Immortal Emperor, what good would that do? Wouldn't I still be annihilated by the Dominator? With the military and Tang Haofei in existence, by having this group and that individual stand as a buffer before me, perhaps I could survive a little longer...

The thoughts swirling in his mind sent a chill through Wen Yu. His perspective on the military and Tang Haofei had shifted once more, signifying a change in Wen Yu's own understanding and thoughts. Now, Wen Yu felt a prickle of fear...

Originally, what awaited me ahead was the unknown. The unknown meant uncertainty, and I had believed uncertainty harbored great hope. But when a corner of that unknown was slowly peeled back, I discovered that beyond it lay a bottomless abyss. When the fog finally clears, perhaps what I'll see won't just be the truth, but also the shattering of hope and an abyss of despair!

"Turn right 500 meters ahead."

"Turn left at the third intersection ahead."

A voice, much like a GPS navigator, emanated from the Almighty Demon Vine, directing Wen Yu as he weaved through the area.

Fortunately, Ling Yun City was not densely populated at present. Many dead souls from the Universe of Immortals and Heroes had perished on the battlefields outside. Once these individuals reawakened, they would undoubtedly return to Ling Yun City. Perhaps after some time, the city's population would experience an explosive surge.

Currently, the natives of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes within Ling Yun City didn't include any particularly strong individuals—or perhaps they had concealed their auras so well that Wen Yu couldn't detect them.

In short, as Wen Yu moved about in his shadow form, no creature had seen through his disguise. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

At Level 5, while I might not be able to defeat certain monstrously powerful beings, I am absolutely confident that my strength is outstanding within this tier!

"We're here!"

Following the Almighty Demon Vine's instruction, Wen Yu came to a halt directly before a dilapidated wooden hut.

Turning his head to look around, he could clearly see his surroundings.

Disorderly and dilapidated... those were the only two adjectives I could find to describe my current surroundings.

"This was once the slum district of Ling Yun City. There's nothing much to see anymore."

Ling Yun City had likely been comparable in size to a prefecture-level city in Cathay. In any such city, social stratification was natural. Those lacking strength, skills, or connections certainly wouldn't reside in spacious, beautiful homes.

"Let's go in."

Hearing the Almighty Demon Vine, Wen Yu briefly adjusted his collar, then slowly pulled open the door and stepped into the wooden hut before him.

The furnishings inside were unremarkable. At least, I can't figure out what's so special about this wooden hut.

However, before Wen Yu could ask, the Almighty Demon Vine began its performance.

It abruptly shot out from Wen Yu's right hand, and then the tip of the Almighty Demon Vine suddenly unfurled.

Vicious teeth rapidly protruded, elongating and curving. In the blink of an eye, the Almighty Demon Vine's tip had transformed into a drill bit.

Then, the vine twisted and began to spin.

The Almighty Demon Vine, like a miniature power drill, bored furiously into the ground while simultaneously transmitting a Spiritual Fluctuation into Wen Yu's mind.

"Enlarge the hole."

Wen Yu and the Almighty Demon Vine had developed a certain rapport. The Almighty Demon Vine took charge of burrowing downwards, while Wen Yu employed the corrosive nature of darkness to widen the passage. It didn't take long for their combined efforts to create a hole nearly one meter wide in the ground.

Then...

CLANG!

The Almighty Demon Vine's downward movement was obstructed by something hard.

"Okay, wait."

After the Almighty Demon Vine spoke, its tip suddenly emanated a purple mist as it began to trace strange runes nearly 100 meters deep underground.

Seeing this, Wen Yu felt a sense of relief. Hidden 100 meters underground and guarded by a powerful restriction, whatever the Almighty Immortal Emperor left for me here has to be good.

It took less than ten minutes for the Almighty Demon Vine to complete its 'work'.

Accompanied by CREAKING sounds, the noise of metal grinding against earth echoed continuously. Seeing this, Wen Yu immediately waved his hand, erecting a black barrier to seal off the sound and aura of this location. Then, he looked towards the Almighty Demon Vine.

The Almighty Demon Vine, now resembling a thick well rope, was rapidly hauling something up from below.

A distance of roughly 100 meters was trivial for the Almighty Demon Vine, taking only about three seconds.

BANG! A perfectly square, large metal box was deposited before Wen Yu by the Almighty Demon Vine.

CREAK.

A sharp, metallic scraping sound followed. After the Almighty Demon Vine input a 15-digit password, the massive, technologically advanced-looking safe in front of Wen Yu was opened by it.

"All the good stuff for you is in there. Take a look."

Brimming with curiosity, Wen Yu peered into the box...

A black robe, resembling a cross between a trench coat and a Taoist robe, first met his eyes. Next to the garment lay a token made of some unknown material.

The three large characters "Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance" on the token were especially striking to Wen Yu.

Beyond these, there was nothing else...

"Is that all?"

Although Wen Yu's tone was calm, the Almighty Demon Vine immediately detected the disappointment in his voice.

The Spiritual Fluctuation returned by the Almighty Demon Vine was filled with disdain.

"Kid, these two items are undoubtedly the greatest treasures you'll acquire from this trip to the Heavenly Palace!"
