Chapter 98: Chapter 97, Mysterious Corridor! Grandmaster’s Major Outburst! (Please subscribe! Please vote!)

The setting sun bathed the entire Bianjing City.

In a certain corner.

Wang Teng was drinking and eating meat, thoroughly enjoying himself.

Half a pound of braised beef and three shots of Monkey Wine restored his strength and energy to their peak state.

Having eaten and drunk his fill, Wang Teng changed out of his pre-prepared personal guard attire and headed towards the Imperial Palace.

At the same time, he also checked into the world chat channel to see how everyone was doing.

Upon entering, he overheard the heated discussions everyone was having.

"Everyone! Does anyone have clues about the future Realm Master of our world?"

"I don’t know! The public bounty task descriptions are too vague!"

"Yeah! We have no leads at all, are we supposed to blindly break into the palace?"

"The hint suggests entering the palace requires a Bronze Gilded Token, but no one knows how to obtain that token!"

"Alas~! Really, we have to figure this out ourselves, it’s driving me crazy!"

"The sooner we complete this bounty, the better. Delaying will weaken our world’s competitiveness."

"Yeah! With so many worlds globally, everyone must be rushing to complete this bounty!"

"Looking at this bounty task, I’m getting anxious but still have no clue!"

Seeing everyone so anxious, Wang Teng began to speak.

Wang Teng: "Everyone, I’ve found some clues. Maybe we can complete this bounty tonight!"

With this statement, everyone was shocked.

"Wang Teng, are you going to force your way into the palace?"

"No way! Wang Teng must have found the Bronze Gilded Token!"

Seeing this, Wang Teng smiled slightly, about to answer.

"Boom~!!"

Just then, a loud explosion sounded from the direction of the palace.

Outside the palace gates, numerous soldiers, looking surprised, hurriedly entered the palace while the ancient and heavy gates started to slowly close.

Seeing this, Wang Teng quickly exited the chat channel and strode forward.

Amidst the chaos, Wang Teng presented his Bronze Gilded Token. After the supervising general verified it without further checks, Wang Teng was allowed into the palace, and the gates were thoroughly shut.

Just before leaving, Wang Teng was grabbed by the arm by the supervising general.

"Entering the palace so late? You must be new! Quickly return to your room, and don’t go out after dark, no matter what noises you hear outside, remember that!"

With those words, the supervising soldiers hurriedly ran off into the distance...

Thus, Wang Teng officially entered the Inner Imperial Palace, surrounded by towering red palace walls, oppressing him.

[Hint: You have now entered a highly dangerous area—the Inner Imperial Palace. Your Bronze Gilded Token has automatically disappeared!]

[Hint: You have stepped into the Inner Imperial Palace, triggering Murong Fu’s Obsession!]

Wang Teng walked alone in the deep palace corridor

Feeling puzzled by the supervising general’s words.

But time was of the essence, so he could only head towards the direction of that strange explosion sound.

With no other leads at the moment, perhaps that explosion could give him a clue.

Just then, six or seven eunuchs in python robes emerged from the other end of the corridor.

As they ran over, they saw Wang Teng and were momentarily startled.

A lowly personal guard was running around inside the Inner Imperial Palace.

Then, their eyes showed an air of superiority.

"Which defender general’s command are you under that you don’t understand palace rules and fail to kneel when seeing the officials?!"

Wang Teng slightly raised his head, his eyes glinting with a cold light.

There was no one else around. It was the perfect opportunity for murder and silence.

Fighting seven was a piece of cake!

Only one eunuch in a python robe began to slowly retreat.

At the moment Wang Teng lifted his head, the eunuch’s head exploded with a bang.

The man before him was the God of Slaughter he encountered during the day!

He had actually come to the Inner Imperial Palace!

This eunuch was indeed one of the twelve Emperor’s Attendants.

He was the sole survivor only because he hid in the post station’s cesspit, masking all smells.

Upon recognizing Wang Teng’s face, the Emperor’s Attendant’s eyes filled with panic.

But before he could issue a warning, Wang Teng sprang into action.

"Whoosh~!"

His figure flashed!

"Bang~!" "Bang~!" "Bang~!"

Ribs cracked, blood splattered!

"Snap~!" "Snap~!" "Snap~!"

Before they could scream, Wang Teng had snapped their necks!

[Successfully defeated heroic-level character Emperor’s Attendant! You gained +140 experience points! You gained +40 Obsession Level!]

[Successfully defeated heroic-level character Emperor’s Attendant! You gained +140 experience points! You gained +40 Obsession Level!]

...

In an instant, Wang Teng killed six Emperor’s Attendants, obtaining 840 experience points and 240 Obsession Level!

Not bad! Not bad!

Wang Teng was elated.

Entering the palace was fraught with peril, but the rewards were indeed substantial.

Not only could he gain experience points, but he could also increase the long-stagnant Obsession Level!

His Murong Fu’s Obsession Level was still at Level 3; now, it finally made some progress.

Only one last Emperor’s Attendant was left, witnessing the scene and fled in panic, looking to escape deeper into the palace.

Wang Teng quickly got up, charging towards the depths of the corridor.

This time, he couldn’t let this Emperor’s Attendant escape!

Wang Teng flicked a finger, and a powerful qi shot out from his fingertips.

"Whiz~!"

The next second, the qi pierced through the back of the Emperor’s Attendant’s head.

"Pffft~!"

A crisp sound!

Blood splattered!

The Emperor’s Attendant’s head appeared with a finger-sized hole.

Before he could scream, he fell to the ground.

[Successfully defeated heroic-level character Emperor’s Attendant! You gained +140 experience points! You gained +40 Obsession Level!]

[Successfully defeated heroic-level character Emperor’s Attendant! Dropped a Silver-level Blind Box!]

Not bad! Not bad!

Another 40 Obsession Levels!

And a Silver-level Blind Box! ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

He stored it in his Storage Ring.

At once, he walked over to the Emperor’s Attendant’s corpse to extract more.

But just then, the red bricks stained with blood started to creep eerily, like demons from the abyss, slowly opening their mouths and devouring the Emperor’s Attendant’s corpse...

Witnessing this horrifying scene, Wang Teng was slightly taken aback.

In the blink of an eye, the body of the Emperor’s Attendant was swallowed by the earth, disappearing without a trace.

Even the bloodstains on the ground vanished completely.

Wang Teng turned around, and the six bodies behind him were also gone.

The smell of blood in the air gradually faded, but the atmosphere grew colder and more eerie.

A hint of doubt appeared in Wang Teng’s eyes.

There was indeed something fishy about this Inner Imperial Palace!

He couldn’t help but take a deep breath, looking around.

Everything within sight seemed normal as before.

Yet there was no one in sight, and the silence was such that even a pin drop could be heard clearly.

As the day grew dim, the depths of the corridor seemed like a giant mouth swallowing all who entered.

It seemed Wang Teng needed to delve deeper into the palace and explore.

With this thought, Wang Teng gathered his thoughts and walked into the depths of the corridor to investigate.

"Rumble~!"

Just then, the ground ahead suddenly began to tremble, emitting a rumbling sound.

Wang Teng was startled, quickly clenching his fists and looking toward the depths of the corridor.

"Clip-clop~ Clip-clop~!"

A rapid sound of horse hooves approached, kicking up dust!

A Golden Armored Cavalryman, holding a Fangtian Halberd, came charging forward.

Wang Teng looked closely.

This cavalryman wore shining golden armor, and even the horse beneath him was clad in golden tack.

But what was frightening was that this cavalryman had no head!

He radiated intense Royal Dragon Qi, as if an emperor had crawled out from hell, exuding an extremely eerie aura!

At this moment, although he had no head, his aura exuded disdain.

A mere commoner dared to trespass in his palace.

Simply courting death!

He had encountered many who dared to intrude into the Imperial Palace, having slaughtered numerous prodigies, each not just a heroic-level character, but also leaders of various factions.

Some could even fly and teleport, claiming to seek some Realm Master clues.

Utter nonsense!

But this commoner had none of the characteristics of a powerful person.

It seemed his Fangtian Halberd was about to taste blood again!

At the same time, Wang Teng was also evaluating the Headless Knight, with black ripples appearing in his eyes...

[Name: ??? (Royal Family)]

[Level: Grandmaster-level Character.]

[Country: Song Country]

[Martial Arts (Skills): ???.]

[Talent: ??? (Incomplete)]

[Comprehensive Combat Power: 1350.]

[Drop Rate: 15%]

[State: Evil, Slaughter, Light, Guardian.]

Hmm?!

A very strange character.

Name, talent, and martial arts untraceable.

Even the state showed two completely opposite attributes.

How peculiar!

"Roar~!"

At this moment, the Headless Knight let out a low roar, his aura surging, murderous intent soaring.

No matter what purpose this commoner had, he would kill and crush him.

His duty was to kill all intruders!

"Whoosh~!"

The next second, the warhorse neighed, transforming into a gust of wind, charging at Wang Teng.

"Boom~!"

In the dim environment, a fiery red fist shadow flickered!

The force of the punch was overwhelming!

"Bang~!"

The Fangtian Halberd heavily hacked toward Wang Teng’s body.

A green light flashed, dragon roars surged, and the Fangtian Halberd stopped three inches before Wang Teng.

The next moment, Wang Teng’s fist landed on the chest of the Headless Knight.

The warhorse whined, and the golden armor shattered!

The Headless Knight was directly pressed to the point where his bones creaked under the overwhelming punch force.

"Thud~!"

"Thud~!"

Two dull thuds!

A man and a horse crashed heavily to the ground!

With just one punch, Wang Teng completely subdued the Grandmaster-level character.

Cracks like a spider’s web spread across the chest of the Headless Knight.

"Sigh~!"

A long sigh of relief emanated from within him.

In his final moments, the voice of the Headless Knight emerged once more.

"Please... save... mysterious... intruder... Song...!"

The voice was fragmented, even Wang Teng, with his auditory talent, could only make out bits and pieces.

The next moment, the body of the Headless Knight was slowly swallowed...

[Successfully killed a Grandmaster-level character! Gained a total of +800 Experience Points!]

[Successfully killed a Grandmaster-level character! Gained a total of +50 Obsession Level!]

[Successfully killed a Grandmaster-level character! Dropped a reward clue item—Daily Records!]

[Successfully killed a Grandmaster-level character! Dropped a Silver-level Blind Box!]

Not bad! Not bad!

Another blind box!

Wang Teng was delighted.

He quickly picked up the Silver-level Blind Box and stored it in the Storage Ring.

Thus, he had three Silver-level Blind Boxes in hand.

Once he obtained one more Silver-level Blind Box, he could synthesize a Gold-level Blind Box!

Oh right!

This is... a reward clue item—Daily Records!

Could it be the way to do the "Future Realm Master" reward task?!

Wang Teng quickly picked up the Daily Records.

As soon as he got the Daily Records, a cold mechanical voice followed...
