It cost Zhong Yi 18 health before he finally made it out of the question-mark room in one piece.
"Pah, pah, pah! Old Zhou must've possessed me!"
Zhong Yi was furious.
Across three battles, he had lost only two health in total.
But one step into a random room, without even meeting a monster, and he was down to 60...
"No. I need a monster to take this out on!"
Zhong Yi glared at his health bar, opened the map, and pressed on.
Above the question-mark room, there was only one route.
It led to a purple elite-monster room.
"Hmph, an elite monster? Fine. Weak opponents are no fun to fight anyway!"
Zhong Yi snorted. The word "elite" didn't faze him in the slightest.
After three battles, he had a rough grasp of how difficult the Slay the Immortal Spire was.
Put simply, it was easy.
No challenge at all!
Those three monsters hadn't even managed to kill him on their first encounter. They had cost him two health and barely dirtied his clothes.
Even if the elite was a little stronger, how strong could it be?
Even ten times stronger than an ordinary monster would only mean losing 20 health instead of two. Nothing to fear.
With that thought, Zhong Yi smiled confidently and stepped into the elite monster's room.
An enormous, sinister cyan Buddha statue appeared before him, a sickle in its hand.
The elite monster, called the Olden Statue, had its eyes half-closed and was asleep.
"What the hell? It wakes up after two turns? I get two free turns to hit it?"
Once Zhong Yi saw its status, he felt downright insulted.
As if giving him two free turns weren't enough, it also had a DEBUFF that made it take ten percent extra damage for every
