Chapter 188: The necromancer’s legacy Part2
Tang Yue pictured herself as a vortex with a powerful suction force and tried to actively draw in the strings of ck souls.
“Hrmm…”
“…”
“…”
Time ticked by slowly but there was absolutely no change in anything at all.
The thin almost invisible strings still steadily flowed into her without any disruption.
However, they didn’t increase or decrease in volume.
Tang Yue sighed.
Her soul strength was steadily increasing so at least she was gaining something but this seemed anti-climatic considering the borate undead beast hordes and even an epic-grade beast acting as a guardian.
Surely, something more has to be here! Her eyes then fell on thest white crystal orb.
“Might as well pop that!” Tang Yue hissed and slithered closer to it.
She slowly started coiling herself around the white orb as well, but suddenly a bright blinding light shed.
Bzzzzt
The next instant the snakepletely disappeared from the azureke.
“What the hell?”
Before Tang Yue could even blink her eyes, she again materialized at a different spot.
Pat. Pat. Pat.
The snake found herself in her human form and dusted her behind as she stood up.
A kind of stale and stagnant smell assaulted her senses, simr to the air in thebyrinth tunnels.
“I guess I am still inside this ce.” She absentmindedly muttered under her breath.
“Ugh… So dark.” She flicked her hand and materialized a ball of me swirling on her palm.
She used it to illuminate the dark space and observe her surroundings.
Just as she had expected, Tang Yue was still within the mountain ranges.
“What the hell? Which jobless maniac created abyrinth within abyrinth?” She cursed inwardly.
The weirdest part was that the thin strands of ck mist were still connected to her and the soul wisps slowly and steadily flowed into her and were being absorbed by her.
Ding. Soul strength has been upgraded
Ding. Soul strength has been upgraded
A couple of notifications chimed in her ears as well. Tang Yue chuckled helplessly.
She then sighed loudly and was about to walk forward and explore this new cave tunnel, when a loud voice echoed around her.
“Wee to thend of the dead, o chosen one!”
“You must survive the 12yers of hell to obtain Master’s inheritance.”
“Good luck on your journey. Let the dead prosper again!”
Tang Yue felt a chill travel down her spine. She hugged herself and rubbed her arms rapidly.
“So everything was indeed true!” She hissed silently.
When the news of thisbyrinth had first floated around Eldoria, everyone had guessed different possibilities of what thebyrinth could potentially be.
Some had guessed that it was a powerful artifact. Some had guessed that it was a tomb of some ancient expert.
But the mostmonly guessed option was a powerful ancient inheritance!
Considering that thebyrinth was even capable of making her entric master shut up at times, Tang Yue could tell that this inheritance was probably more powerful than her own special ‘System-themed’ inheritance.
“Hmm…” Tang Yue paused.
Normally, she would have jumped at such a godly chance to make herself more powerful, but right at this moment, the snake couldn’t help but hesitate slightly.
Was it morally correct for her to im this since Xander was the one who was fighting toe to toe with thebyrinth’s guardian?
After all, it was only because of him that she was alive right now.
Otherwise, the worm would have definitely hunted her again and this time would have chewed her thoroughly before swallowing.
As Tang Yue fidgeted ufortably, caught between a rock and hard ce, faint screeching noises echoed in the distance.
“Fuck.” She cursed out loud. By now, she knew exactly what this meant.
Undead Beasts! And a huge number of them wereing her way!
Tang Yue frantically turned around, but she was clearly at a dead end. There wasn’t any other tunnel or exit visible.
The only path avable was straight ahead! She had to move forward and face the beasts.
The matter of obtaining the inheritance or not was no longer in her hands. A decision was already made for her!
Setting aside the topic of inheritance, she needed to survive theyers of hell first in order to get out of here.
Tang Yue quickly spat out the space pearl from her mouth. She retrieved a bunch of armors and weapons from her cache, haphazardly throwing stuff on her body.
She still had a couple of leftover armors and gauntlets, but unfortunately, both her rare-grade swords were already ruined.
So she rummaged around the space pearl and retrieved a new sword, which she had obtained from the glow worm’s body.
She had a couple of high-grade swords in reserve but this looked better than those two and had a much more stronger and mysterious aura. So Tang Yue felt drawn to this sword.
And surprisingly, as soon as she picked it up a new notification sounded.
Ding. Congrattions. You have obtained a soul weapon.
“Huh? Soul weapon?” Tang Yue pondered. She had absolutely no idea what that was.
“Maybe I can ask the old man once I leave this ce?”
Tang Yue tried wielding it but it felt very heavy and inflexible.
“What the hell? Even a high-grade sword is better than this!” She hissed.
The shrieks from the fast-approaching horde of beasts were also sounding closer and closer to her, so Tang Yue decided to figure this outter and switch her swords for now.
But the next instant, she hesitantly stopped in her tracks and decided to try something out beforepletely giving up on this mysterious soul weapon.
Tang Yue quickly used the sword to sh a small cut on her arm, dripping the blooding out onto the sword itself.
Most treasures and contracts required a binding with blood, so this was not a bad guess.
And if this soul weapon was indeed as powerful as it sounded, she wanted to wield it while fighting against whatever wasing.
After all, she had an inkling that she would need everyst ounce of her strength to clear these so-calledyers of hell!
