Supreme Couple In Apocalypse: Undead King & Demonic Queen-Chapter 190: Howling Tombs

The group saw a vast cave with multiple passages around the cavern with numbers on top of each cave passage. There were a total of 10 cave passages and ten numbers, from 1 to 10.

"The numbers indicate the difficulty."

After Lilith finished speaking, Erix created a portal connecting to their cave.

A few other people were waiting while sitting, talking, or training in this cavern while their companions or subordinates went to challenge Tombs.

They were surprised to see Erix creating a portal and noted the group.

Afterward, Lilith and Reinala stayed at the portal while Erix, Rin, Lily, and Klelia went to the level 1 cave passage.

After entering, they saw three tombs and no people.

Lily walked ahead and said, "These are three level 1 tombs here. We have to touch one of them, and it will absorb us into the battlefield, where we'll fight a challenging individual."

"Then let's go," Rin grinned and went to touch the first tomb before disappearing.

Erix also did the same as he touched the same tomb as Rin and disappeared.

Seeing that, Klelia and Lily quickly did the same.

…

Erix arrived on a barren battlefield with block-soaked land and rotten skeletons.

Fortunately, there was pure death power here, so Erix's source didn't absorb it.

Rin and others were also on the same battlefield, but none of them were together. They had to fight 1v1 against the challenge.

*Roarr!!*

Erix soon saw strange black mists gathering together before him and turning into a three-meter-tall humanoid with its entire body covered in heavy black-blue scaled armor and wielding two heavy black swords.

[Specter of Dark Warrior]

_Level: 199

_Stats: —

—> [ Strength: 1200 ]

—> [ Agility: 1200 ]

—> [ Health: 1200 ]

—> [ Stamina: 1200 ]

—> [ Spirit: - / Spirit Force: - ]

—> [ Magic power: 1200 / Mana: 5000/5000 ]

*Swoosh!*

Just as Erix glanced at the warrior's status, he was assaulted by the aura that exploded out of the Dark Warrior and covered a one-kilometer area around him.

[You have been affected by Dark Mud debuff. Strength -10%.]

'Great,' Erix grinned. He saw the Dark Warrior immediately blurring while his left arm was already swinging the sword towards his neck.

*BOOM!*

Erix transformed in the blink of an eye while already moving his hand that wrapped into his newly created Gauntlets and punched the sword.

To make up for his decreased Strength and already having lower Agility than his enemy, Erix intended to finish this battle quickly.

The moment his right fist swung to the left and clashed against the sword with his Whirling Punch, a powerful gust of physical force shook Dark Warrior while his left hand was already in motion.

The gauntlet swiftly transformed into a Sling Shot Gauntlet.

The moment his fist touched the Dark Knight's head, Erix's eyes became bloodshot and dark as he exerted a great deal of his stamina, 1000 mana, and consumed 500 Spirit Force to execute the Sling Shot Punch….2.0.

This caused his fist that touched Dark Knight's forehead to retract at double speed as all power condensed more into his fist and immediately hit the Dark Knight's chest in the same second at twenty times the speed of sound before his entire arm and even the tough gauntlet shattered.

However, the force that shot from his fist immediately put a huge hole into Dark Warrior's chest while the landscape behind Dark Warrior shattered into tiny cubes before creating a huge crater.

In the next moment, Erix disappeared from the battlefield and appeared outside.

"Damn...Hahahahaha! I fucking did it!"

Although his entire left arm was wasted, Erix was overjoyed!

After all, this skill-technique required an unknown amount of stamina, enough to cause Erix's source to rile up due to him exerting his unlimited pool of stamina to his limit. Second, this punch required Erix's physical structure with stasis blood and organs that worked differently than humans since his source provided a unique life force in his internal structure due to his Hybrid-Zombie status.

The downside was that he was biting more than he could chew, destroying his own arm in the process.

'I'll have to refine other techniques and make them catch up to my powers.'

Since his Metal affinity reached level 4 and Death affinity reached level 2, he could do much more.

Although he really wanted to reach 2nd realm in his Space affinity, he fell short of it. However, Erix was getting closer to the realm and believed he could achieve it soon.

Erix went to Lilith to get his arm healed.

Meanwhile, Rin and Lily soon arrived after half a minute, but Klelia took one full minute before finishing her challenge.

When she emerged, Erix, Rin, and Lily had already defeated the 2nd tomb. Erix remained uninjured this time since he didn't go overboard like previously.

When Klelia finished her 2nd tomb, Erix, Rin, and Lily defeated the 3rd tomb's challenge and emerged.

The trio left level 1 cave and went to the level 2 cave, where they saw two people sitting in the corner and recovering.

Same as level 1, this cave also had three tombs, but there was one difference that would appear if one defeated all three tomb challenges.

Rin, Erix, and Lily challenged the 1st tomb of level 2.

The stats of the enemy inside were the same as in level 1 cave tombs, but they became more intelligent and seemed real.

While Erix finished his battle in several seconds, Rin was having a fun and delightful battle with her enemy, who was a samurai wielding a katana.

Their blade caused air to tremble, and their clashes changed the landscapes of the battlefield.

The battle lasted for two minutes before Rin's aura suddenly changed and became sharp. Her eyes flashed dreamy silver and gold, and her katana blurred and vanished before ten faint slashes overwhelmed the samurai, cutting him into pieces.

[You have envisioned the meaning of your Blade and solidified it. You have successfully progressed to 2nd realm of your Blade Concept! Congratulations.]

Rin floated in the air, her eyes closed.

The sharp aura around her slowly retracted while she also disappeared from the battlefield and appeared outside.

A second later, she slowly opened her delightful eyes filled with excitement. 'I finally did it!'

She had practiced a lot with her blade, and she only lacked such a battle to make a breakthrough to the 2nd realm of the Blade concept.

[Blade]—Concept.
