Chapter 40: Unforeseen Circumstances in the Robe Forbidden Zone (Seeking Readers!)
Chapter 40: Unforeseen Circumstances in the Robe Forbidden Zone (Seeking Readers!)
After returning from the peak, Qi Yuan heaved a sigh of relief.
"Thankfully, no one suspects it's me!"
"Heaven Soaring Tower is too powerful. Last night, a strong cultivator flattened Black Mountain Sect's mountain peak!"
"I wonder which Divine Infancy Elder Demon took action. Did anyone from Divine Light Sect go?"
"As expected, most people's attention is now on the Bamboo Body."
"Even if the Black Chicken Old Demon appears, they probably won't be able to find the culprit."
Qi Yuan muttered to himself.
Night fell.
Qi Yuan once again entered the game world.
The first thing he did was chat with the netizen Jin Li.
In Nan Qian Kingdom, on the day of the challenge, Qin Yi displayed Imperial Power and soundly defeated the Royal Tutor of Nan Feng Kingdom.
Nan Qian Kingdom's Grand Chancellor, Sima Ting, wore an extremely unpleasant expression.
Jin Li's short-term mission was complete.
However, the crisis had not yet been averted.
"I've never been a qualified ruler."
"Once the Nan Qian turmoil is resolved, I... will leave Nan Qian. What do you think?"
Through Ling Long, Jin Li sent these words to Qi Yuan.
She tightly clutched the Jade Pendant, her heart filled with unease.
This time, it took over a dozen breaths for Qi Yuan to respond.
Jin Li quickly read the message.
"What's the point of being an emperor? Just leave when you're done!
It's more fun to go monster-hunting with me!"
Upon reading the last sentence, a slight smile curved Jin Li's lips.
"I'll go with you."
The unqualified female ruler couldn't sleep again that night, tossing and turning in bed.
Meanwhile, Qi Yuan, the instigator, was once again holding his Supreme Treasure Sword, ready for another hunting session.
However, as he ventured deeper into the Robe Forbidden Zone, Qi Yuan narrowed his eyes.
"Something's not right."
He sensed that today's Robe Forbidden Zone was slightly different from usual.
On a crooked tree, most of its branches were broken, revealing jagged fractures. A gray pant leg hung from the broken branches.
"This wasn't... my doing."
"Are there others?"
The monsters Qi Yuan killed would eventually turn to ashes, becoming his experience.
It was impossible for them to be shattered like this.
His gaze grew serious, and he became even more cautious.
After all, in this world, there were treacherous officials like Sima Ting, and there were likely other human NPCs like him.
Perhaps there was such an NPC in the Robe Forbidden Zone.
Qi Yuan was extremely careful and observant.
However, he only found a few broken monster parts.
The rest of the monsters were the same as usual.
Qi Yuan hesitated, "Should I continue killing?"
He couldn't calm down until he figured out the situation.
Unfortunately, after a night of stealth, he still hadn't discovered anything unusual.
The monsters in the Robe Forbidden Zone were the same as before, hanging on trees, silent as ghosts.
"Am I scaring myself?"
Qi Yuan exited the deeper part of the Robe Forbidden Zone. He decided to dig a hole.
After all, whenever he felt afraid, hiding under the covers would dispel his fears.
According to the first principle of ghosts, they couldn't harm someone hiding under a blanket.
Qi Yuan decided to hide in the hole first.
The cramped space inside the hole, with no ventilation, was like some special locations in the Battle Royale game, giving a false sense of security.
The cold moonlight shone on the trees, and not far away, a torn blue robe hung, its torn fabric resembling a beast's claws, fluttering in the wind.
Qi Yuan quickly dug a hole with his Supreme Treasure Sword.
He immediately crawled into it.
Seeing nothing but soil in all directions, Qi Yuan's heart calmed down, "Indeed, it feels much better. I just need to block the entrance."
He stood up, preparing to block the entrance and bury himself underground.
But as he lifted his head, he immediately locked eyes with a pair of deep, hollow eyes!
At the hole's entrance was a head, silently staring at Qi Yuan.
This head seemed to wear a mask, half black and half white. The white part looked like a cold corpse that a novice mortician had applied three layers of powder to, trying to restore the deceased's facial expression, but it still felt eerie.
"You're breaking the rules of combat!"
Qi Yuan was startled!
Anyone who was about to sleep and suddenly looked up to see a pair of eyes staring intently at them would have the same reaction as Qi Yuan.
Supreme Power!
When Qi Yuan saw this creature, his first instinct was to unleash Supreme Power.
In an instant, Qi Yuan's power surged wildly.
Twofold, threefold, fourfold, fivefold! Supreme Power was truly supreme.
He unleashed Supreme Power and charged towards this mysterious being.
"Kill!"
The Great Treasure Sword slashed forward.
Beneath the mask, Qi Yuan saw a hint of red.
The mysterious being continued to stare at Qi Yuan.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar◇
Qi Yuan noticed a hint of strangeness in the mysterious being's eyes.
A red gas, like a chemical released from a gas tank, surged towards Qi Yuan.
Only then did Qi Yuan see the full appearance of this mysterious being.
A black and white masked face, with white and red cloth strips intertwined, and in one of its sleeves, a pale human arm, with long fingernails as black as ink.
【Master of the Fallen Forbidden Zone, Ugly Robe Monster King, Level 95.】
The big boss?
Ah! Qi Yuan pushed forward with the Great Treasure Sword.
With the blessing of Supreme Power, this strike was enough to injure a level 90 monster.
However, this strike only made the mysterious being take half a step back.
And at that moment, the red gas merged into Qi Yuan's body.
Instantly, Qi Yuan felt his body stiffen.
The red gas seemed to turn into red threads, entangling his organs and turning him into a puppet.
"It's tough, run!"
Level 95!
He was only level 88, seven levels lower than the Master of the Fallen Forbidden Zone, with a full level difference.
He had to run!
However, after learning that the opponent was the Master of the Fallen Forbidden Zone, Qi Yuan actually breathed a sigh of relief.
An NPC, with a visible health bar, meant he could kill it! Of course, for now, he still needed to run! Qi Yuan sprinted, pushing Supreme Power to its limits.
The Ugly Robe Monster King followed from a distance, seemingly in no hurry to catch Qi Yuan.
After running for an unknown duration, Qi Yuan felt exhausted and depleted.
He also noticed that the Ugly Robe Monster King behind him had stopped chasing.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
After running a few hundred li, Qi Yuan felt he couldn't continue.
"I can't go on, I need to dig a pit and sleep. My body is exhausted, I can't take it anymore.
He hurriedly picked up the Great Treasure Sword, preparing to dig a pit.
But he paused.
"Is this a graveyard?"
"A burial ground?"
"Never mind, if I don't dig, I'll have to force a logout!"
"Dear sirs, I'll borrow your auspicious burial ground for a while, and we'll be neighbors for the night."
In the burial ground, a thin fog hovered, and abandoned tombstones lay in ruins. On one grave, water spinach grew lush, with a hole underneath revealing a white centipede with densely packed legs.
Qi Yuan found a spot away from the graves and dug a large pit.
Qi Yuan was relieved that he hadn't dug into a neighbor's home.
He quickly filled the pit and lay down comfortably.
But as he closed his eyes, he felt as if he had touched something slippery.
"Did I touch the old man's skull?"
With these thoughts, Qi Yuan logged out.
And on Seven-Colored Peak, he too succumbed to deep sleep.
In the Robe Forbidden Zone, within the graveyard, half an hour later.
Firecrackers and gongs sounded in unison.
It was like a funeral procession, yet also a wedding celebration.
A group of robe monsters emerged from the thick fog, dancing and setting their own clothes on fire.
The graveyard was illuminated, and the robe monsters danced wildly.
