Chapter 275: Chapter 274: Are you ready to die?!
Translator: 549690339
“Have you heard? There’s been a blind boy appearing around here recently…”
“Not only have I heard, I’ve seen him with my own eyes!!”
“What? You’ve really seen him? Quick, tell me what he is like!”
“The blind boy, origin unknown, may have just come here because of the recent Heroes Convention…”
Someone sighed, “This blind boy, looks very young, but he is unusually strong, roaming alone in the second layer of the abyss…”
“Not only can he single-handedly destroy a whole squadron of the Demon Clan, he’s also very helpful, often assisting other human groups…”
In reality, this blind boy is not as helpful or relaxed as everyone thinks.
“Damn it, where on earth has Du Gang gone?!”
Ghost Pupil is quite restless, he has been in the second level of the abyss for nearly two months now, initially full of confidence, yet now growing incredibly impatient.
Two months, and he hasn’t seen Du Gang at all.
For him, the most annoying thing is not losing to enemies, but not even being able to see them in the first place.
“Two months, I’ve invaded everywhere in the human wild zone, including the river channels and even some Demon Clan’s wild zones, but I’ve seen no one at all!”
“Could it be, that this guy’s already dead?!”
He’s a bit suspicious, he emerges from the abyss about once every week to take a look around. He hasn’t heard any news of Du Gang leaving the abyss, which means he must still be inside.
However, he hasn’t found him in two months, which is a bit problematic.
“Is he really dead?!”
He could hardly believe it, this is the Ancient God, and he just died like that?
It’s time to go out and check for clues again.
Going back to Happy Town, it’s still the same Dragon Inn as before, the only difference is that this time, he did not sit in the main hall – not by choice, but just due to a lack of seats.

The Heroes Convention hosted by Yan Ruyu this time has drawn quite a crowd. Happy Town had to expand because of the influx of people.
Fortunately, he has a permanent room here, conveniently next to the old man’s.
The two quickly reunited.
“So, did you find him?”
The old man asked first.
Upon hearing this, Ghost Pupil couldn’t help but look disappointed.
It’s clear that Du Gang hasn’t come out, which means, that guy is either still in the abyss, or he’s already dead.
He’s a bit unwilling to accept this, frowning, “Do you think, Du Gang might have died in the second layer of the abyss?”
“Died in the second layer of the abyss?”
The old man was taken aback for a moment, but quickly shook his head. “That’s an Ancient God, same race as the upper echelons of our Demon Realm, he wouldn’t die so easily!”
Upon hearing this, Ghost Pupil is overcome with excitement.
If he killed Du Gang, wouldn’t that mean he was capable of defeating a fellow Ancient Demon?
Ancient Demons are among the highest ranks in the Demon Realm, most of the upper echelons are Ancient Demons.
The old man moved his lips, but in the end, he said nothing.
In his youth, he was an assassin, but he never made the rank. Now he’s too old to do frontline work, he can only do some support work from the rear.
As the time of exhaustion approached, Ghost Pupil heard these words and was once again invigorated.
“No matter what, I have to complete the task. Even if Du Gang is dead, I need to find his body!”
His eyes were ablaze, determination shining forth. From this, it could be seen that he was obsessed with killing Du Gang himself.
…….
As Ghost Pupil was passing the Communication Zone with mixed feelings, he was suddenly attracted by the conversation of several people.
“Recently a newcomer, seems to be able to teleport or something, has snatched quite a few essences…”
“Yeah, no idea where this guy came from, never seen him before…”
“But the good news is, this guy is a human, and what he’s grabbing are essences from the Demon Clan!”
“I heard that among the strong ones from the Third Tribulation Divine Spirits, that guy is referred to as the Shadowless One…”
Shadowless One?
Ghost Pupil narrowed his eyes. Even though these people had not mentioned names, he had a feeling that this was Du Gang.
After listening for a while and noticing no useful information, he headed for the abyss again.
This time, he had a clear target in mind and went straight for the Big Dragon Pit.
When he arrived at Big Dragon Pit, both the human and demon factions had already taken their positions, identical to the very first stand-off in the first layer of the abyss.
In the second layer of the abyss, the strongest of each side likewise stood on the Red Earth.
“Who are you?”
Ghost Pupil had just taken a few steps towards the Red Earth when someone frowned and asked.
Ghost Pupil said nothing, surveying the crowd for Du Gang. Not finding him was a bit of a disappointment.
“Hey, I’m talking to you!”
The man from before, now disgruntled, again yelled and took a step forward, trying to stop him.
“Hmph!”
Ghost Pupil snorted coldly, and instantly released a powerful aura.
“Boom!”
This imposing aura was terrifying, in the blink of an eye sending the disgruntled man retreating back two steps.
“What?!”
Now, everyone at the scene was stunned, staring at Ghost Pupil in utter shock.
Simply the power he released was beyond most of the people present.
Everyone’s gaze fell upon the few strongest people in the field, as if comparing whether Ghost Pupil could compete with them.
Among these exceptional few, one was Qin Jingshuo, who previously went to the first level of the abyss to provide support.
At this moment, he too was watching Ghost Pupil with a serious expression, saying nothing.
“Brother Qin, if you were to go up against this guy, how much chance do you think you have?”
A teammate couldn’t help but ask.
Qin Jingshuo shook his head, “I can’t compare, I don’t know what portion of his strength his current released aura occupies…”
“If it occupies half of his strength, then he might be stronger than me, and if it’s almost equivalent to his entire strength, then he would be weaker…”
“This kind of aura has already surpassed ninety-nine percent of the people here, only a tiny group of people can compete with it!”
This appraisal was extremely high, and everyone sucked in a cold breath upon hearing it.
They believed in Qin Jingshuo, because his strength was already convincingly strong.
Ghost Pupil walked onto the Red Earth, one steady step at a time. He seemed to know that Qin Jingshuo was leading this side;he turned his head and asked calmly:
“Do I qualify to stand here now?”
Although his eyes were covered by a white cloth, at this moment it felt as if an overwhelming pressure was being emitted from them. It was as if being targeted by something hidden in the darkness.
At this moment, Qin Jingshuo felt an ancient beast from the primeval lands was aiming at him, and he involuntarily tensed up.
Even worse, he felt like the blind boy wrapped in white cloth in front of him could take his life in an instant if he wanted.
Terrifying!
Right now, he managed to suppress the shivering in his soul, nodded, and said: “You are qualified to stand here!”
“Phew~”
After saying this, he felt like a man who had finally climbed ashore from the water, tasting fresh air, he sighed in relief.
Ghost Pupil, on the other hand, stopped looking at him after hearing this and veered his gaze towards the Demon Clan.
Alas, even with slight hope, there was still no sign of Du Gang on the Demon Clan’s side.
How exactly did he get out?
Ghost Pupil was slightly confused, unsure whether Du Gang would appear.
Anyway, let’s wait for the moment when the Big Dragon dies and drops the essences!
Qin Jingshuo, having realized that Ghost Pupil had arrived and was not looking for trouble nor acting arrogant, also breathed a sigh of relief.
It was not easy for him to drive away the strongest batch of people; if another high-ranking individual were to arrive, it would be too distressing.
In fact, in the second level of the abyss, or during the First Tribulation Spirit level, Qin Jingshuo was not the strongest.
Among those spirits from the First Tribulation, those stronger than him had already made way to the third level of the abyss, like Zhu Qing.
As for the second layer, the powerhouses among the Third Tribulation Spirits were indeed stronger than him, but these people had basically exhausted their essence and seldom came here to compete with him at the Big Dragon’s place.
On the contrary, the members of the Demon Clan on the opposite side looked at Ghost Pupil several times, as if to memorize him, and a few groups of the Demon Clan hint at each other, indicating that they would pay special attention to Ghost Pupil later on.
Thus, amidst everybody harboring their own thoughts, the Big Dragon respawned!
“Roar!”
A dragon’s roar echoed, followed by a series of attacks.
The fate of the Big Dragon in the abyss was tragic; it usually couldn’t survive for a minute.
“Boom!”
Finally, after thirty seconds of joint attack by the crowd, the Red Big Dragon was slain.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!”
Beads of essence, shimmering with fluorescent glow, scattered over the red earth in a flash.
Just when everyone was about to scramble for them, suddenly, a flash of white light appeared, heralding the arrival of a man who had been active here recently.
“Du Gang!”
Qin Jingshuo muttered under his breath.
He naturally recognized Du Gang from the first level of the abyss where Du Gang was quite famous.
He was quite envious of Du Gang’s means of teleportation, and speculated that it was probably a secret technique passed down from the Ancient Gods.
“It’s really him!”
At this moment, Ghost Pupil revealed a resplendent smile!
Du Gang really came out!
Ancient God will die by my hands…
“Swoosh!”
At this moment, before anyone could react, Ghost Pupil suddenly vanished like a streak of light, spanning countless distances in a flash, and appeared before Du Gang.
“Thump!”
He threw a punch, causing a loud explosion in the air.
A surprise attack!
Du Gang’s heart jolted, shocked by such a high-speed attack.
Jie-Character Secret!
In such a crucial moment, without minding concealing his skills, he hurriedly deployed the Jie-Character Secret.
Just in the nick of time, he narrowly dodged the punch.
“Sizzle!!~”
The power of the punch was terrifying, even though he had dodged it, he was still frightened, as the punch carried at least a thousand units of divine power.
That means, if he had taken the punch, he would have been dead!
“Stomp, stomp, stomp!!!”
As Du Gang moved away in the blink of an eye, creating some distance.
Temporarily putting a stop to his Jie-Character Secret, he squinted at Ghost Pupil and asked, “Who are you?”
Seeing that his attack had not succeeded, Ghost Pupil didn’t rush to attack again; on the contrary, he broke into a smile and replied brightly, “I am the one who has come to claim your life!”
It was then that everyone finally reacted.
Whether it was the Demon Clan or the Human Clan, everyone retreated a certain distance, clearing an area around the two of them.
Everyone had felt the power of that hit, even though they couldn’t properly see it due to the slow reaction of their eyes. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
“An attack with a thousand Naer divine power, such a being could easily slay a common Third Tribulation Spirit, right?!”
Qin Jingshuo was astounded, feeling a sour taste in his heart.
He previously thought of himself as quite a figure.
However, ever since getting to know Du Gang, who had achieved his current strength in such a short time, he has been a touch disheartened.
That, and Zhu Qing, who, even at the First Tribulation Spirit level, was significantly stronger than him.
Now another one had appeared, who seemed even stronger than Zhu Qing.
Stronger than Zhu Qing?
Qin Jingshuo shook his head, uncertain; since he hadn’t seen Zhu Qing take action personally, he couldn’t be sure.
However, this blind young man was certainly stronger than an ordinary Third Tribulation Spirit.
Although everyone had retreated, no one gave up on the essence – they successfully divided it amongst themselves as planned.
Du Gang, unusually, did not scramble for them either.
He now looked at the blind young man with a serious expression, raised an eyebrow in inquiry, and asked, “Are you from the Demon Territory?”
He couldn’t help but ask this. In these days, he had killed quite a few from the Human Clan, but their strength was average, with very few having even six hundred Naer of divine power.
“Hahaha!!!”
Ghost Pupil laughed heartily, nodding, “Yes, I am Demon Territory’s bronze assassin, Ghost Pupil!”
“Demon Territory!”
“Bronze assassin!”
After hearing Ghost Pupil’s words, everyone was taken aback.
Being in the Ancient City Abyss, they naturally have heard quite a bit about the Ancient City, and were equally acquainted with the Demon Territory.
“Bronze assassins are said to be able to defeat opponents at least three ranks higher…”
“Judging by his demeanor, he is already a Third Tribulation Spirit, doesn’t that mean that he has killed a Sixth Tribulation Spirit before?!!”
“Sixth Tribulation Spirit!”
Everyone in the place drew a sharp breath; this was a level beyond their comprehension!
Similarly, the Demon Clan also noticed the disagreement among the Human Clan but they didn’t flee, instead, they stayed in the arena, quietly watching the battle.
They also wanted to record this, to see what these two human powerhouses were capable of.
Du Gang then inquired, “Are you an ancient demon?”
Ghost Pupil shook his head and smiled, “No, the ancient demons are all very powerful…”
After hearing that he was not an ancient demon, Du Gang felt disappointed. He wanted revenge for the Ancient Gods and needed to ask a few things, but since Ghost Pupil wasn’t one, there was no need to ask.
Du Gang asked again, “Did you leave a deity in the outside world?”
Ghost Pupil found this bewildering and had no idea why Du Gang was asking this. However, since he was confident in his victory, he was not in a hurry and chuckled, “Yes, I have a deity in the outside world. Are you prepared to die?!”
