White Ape Heart Bone
Because it was during a rapid pursuit.
Roger decisively clicked "No"! In an instant.
He then arrived at the shore of the Black Sea.
There is a lonely dock not far away.
A lantern emitting a dim yellow light hung on the dock.
Meanwhile, the "Spider Ship" that Roger had seen earlier had slowly sailed away from the dock.
It's at least half a kilometer away from the beach!
On a deserted island in the middle of the ocean.
Strange sounds filled with malevolence emanated from the room.
It looked like a vicious creature grinding its teeth.
Indistinctly.
Roger heard the sound of humans crying.
He then took a closer look.
"Insight: You have seen many captured Clear Spring Sect Disciple on the Spider Ship, who are suspected of being sacrificed to the Spider Ship."
"You realize that this ocean is extremely dangerous. Any living being that enters it will be bound by the Divine Kingdom of Tainted Blood, and it may be impossible to cross it without a specific ship."
"Warning: You have approached the divine realm of the ' Blood of Myriad Filth,' and your every move may trigger an attack."
"Warning: The Spider Ship has detected your presence and is accelerating..."
"At this distance, the main body can be reached in three flashes, but it will be difficult if it is farther away."
"This Extracorporeal Avatar of Little Huang doesn't even have any martial arts skills that allow for long-distance movement..."
This thought came to mind.
Roger frowned, and his spirit decisively returned to his body! For him, saving lives was the priority! He was willing to break the "Truce Contract" for it.
Just as Roger was about to activate Blink.
A sudden chill ran down his spine! "Why isn't the ' Truce Contract ' working again?"
"Etc..."
In the blink of an eye.
Roger interrupted the blinking motion.
His dark eyes suddenly transformed into golden vertical pupils!...
"Notification: You have activated the 'Eye Technique - Absolute Insight '."
"'Illusion: Feast' has failed..."
"You have discovered the entrance to the Endless Abyss."
"It really was a trap!"
Although I realized it.
Roger was still sweating profusely.
In the true vision provided by "Absolute Insight", what Clear Spring Sect Disciple was on that "Spider Ship"?
The deck was covered with a group of Blood Worship Cultist who were crawling on all fours!
And that black ocean was indeed covered with the divine power of "Blood of Myriad Filth".
But the existence of that divine power was merely a cover for the true nature of the Spider Ship! Roger saw it clearly.
At the bottom of that Spider Ship, there was a crack that looked like a black hole.
Every half minute, the crack would capture and devour one of the creatures on the ship!
The person who is swallowed will not die.
But you will be transported to the "Endless Abyss"! As everyone knows.
The Abyss and Purgatory are both extremely twisted and evil worlds!
The difference lies in the fact that the demons of purgatory revere order and evil.
The demons of the abyss, on the other hand, revere violence and chaos.
Once they are sent to the abyss.
There's no way out for the time being.
They might even be mired in this quagmire for a long time!
"That Blood of Myriad Filth is a damn cunning old fox!"
"They've been trying to find a way to send me away..."
"I almost fell for it!"
Roger coldly watched the Spider Ship 'gradually receding into the distance'.
The latter began to slow its movement.
The Blood Worship Cultist on the ship even started yelling 'Help!' at him.
It's a pity.
In the face of Absolute Insight.
All illusions below the Immortal-grade are illusions! Right now.
Roger's gaze lingered on the seashore.
They eventually stopped at that dock.
He quickly walked to the vicinity of the dock.
In this process.
Roger's gaze remained fixed on the dim, yellow lantern the entire time.
Under the frenzied identification of the Qi Divination Technique.
This seemingly ordinary lantern finally revealed its true form.
"Lantern of the Lost City (Special Item/Upgrade)"
"Description: This is a treasure from a city that does not exist in present history. Under certain conditions, it can be a key."
Special Effects: Illusion (Feast)
"Illusion (Feast): Creates a false but highly realistic scene, covering a space of up to 10 x 10 x 10 kilometers, with an effect equivalent to a 12th-level spell."
Note: 3 effects remain available.
"That's interesting."
Roger moved closer.
He stood in front of the lantern, thought for a moment, pretended to reach out his hand, and then suddenly pulled it back! And at the very instant he reached out his hand...
Roger's senses suddenly went off again!
"Sixth Sense: You have sensed the malice emanating from the Blood of Myriad Filth."
"You have discovered the 'trap: Eternal Exile '"
"Eternal Exile (Curse): Once you touch this, you will be subject to 99 exile attempts. If you fail even one saving throw, you will be permanently exiled to a nearby random Sub-Plane."
"Is this never going to end?!"
Roger was speechless.
This Blood of Myriad Filth really went to great lengths to deal with me.
The trap and the lantern are integrated.
Moreover, it is very well hidden.
As long as Roger gets greedy, he will definitely fall into the trap!
But from another perspective...
Ever since Roger returned to Mystra.
The Blood of Myriad Filth ' series of actions revealed a guilty conscience in every aspect.
This is actually somewhat unusual.
"This guy is a nearly level 150 powerhouse, how can he be so afraid of a level 62 nobody like me?"
"Is he in a bad state right now?"
Roger pondered for a moment.
He resolutely made a decision—
He wants a quick victory!
He wasn't going to drag things out with them any longer!
Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll have to turn on "Absolute Insight" just to go to the toilet in the future.
After all, that's in line with the style of the Blood of Myriad Filth.
It's quite reasonable to hide a Teleportation Gate to the abyss or purgatory in a latrine.
A moment later.
Roger summoned several demons from the Xia Yin Realm and pointed to the lantern on the dock, saying, "There's a trap up there."
"I need a volunteer to trigger it."
"Of course, I will never force you."
The demons looked at each other, then raised their hands:
"I!"
"I'll do it!"
"Let me do it!"
They all shouted fiercely, but they all looked extremely loyal.
But he didn't move an inch.
Only Hades and Woodpecker managed to rush over at the last possible moment.
It's a pity.
Hades, being more skillful, was the first to obtain the lantern.
Just as he was proudly showing off the treasure in his hand...
The next second.
A mist rose from his body.
With a soft "poof".
Hades ' figure disappeared from the spot.
Roger calmly unfurled a "Servant Re-Summoning Scroll"! Suddenly...
The teleportation array flashed.
Hades returned to the world of the living, covered in dust and grime!
He still held the lantern firmly in his hand.
But his body was covered in a lot of strange, sticky mucus.
The mucus had a faint sweet and fishy smell.
Where were you teleported to?
Roger asked curiously.
To everyone's surprise, Hades, who was always loyal, started to stammer.
Seeing this scene.
Roger didn't ask any further questions.
He simply cast a Qi Divination Technique on the slime.
"The Secretions of Lust: A Pharmacological Material That Can Effectively Enhance Emotional Connection"
Origin: Succubus Cave
"Um..."
Considering that there may also be a time difference between the Prime Material Plane and the Abyss Plane.
And devils and demons are natural enemies.
Hades probably suffered a lot in the Succubus Cave.
Roger acted as if nothing had happened.
He silently shifted his gaze and focused his attention on the lantern.
After repeatedly confirming that there were no other traps.
He then put the lantern into the Tinder Pouch.
After the lanterns were taken away.
The black ocean has also returned to its original form—
It is simply a vast underground lake.
The divine power of the Blood of Myriad Filth slowly dissipated.
The Spider Ship has also disappeared without a trace.
Although this underground lake should also be worth exploring.
But Roger decided to stop there.
After the tumor monster died.
The biggest threat to the Great Cathedral has been eliminated.
Roger only needs to clean up the hidden corners of the underground cave, and that should ensure the safety of the area around Lotus City.
So he turned and left.
After returning to the seventh floor.
He began the final round of sweeping!
At dawn.
Roger's figure emerged from the entrance of the cave.
A wave of enthusiastic cheers swept in like a tsunami.
He looked up.
He discovered it was just as he had expected—
The blood mist that had shrouded Lotus City for so long has gradually dissipated! Thus...
The Exorcism Mission was a great success.
Roger encountered virtually no setbacks along the way.
But the rewards are very generous—
First, there are the fragments of Immortal Bone.
The data is displayed in the data column.
He now has more than 30,000 Immortal Bone fragments in his possession.
After exchanging for the third Immortal Bone, there was still a surplus of over ten thousand!
"Hint: You have redeemed your third Immortal Bone and obtained the ' White Ape Heart Bone '."
"White Ape Heart Bone (Tier 1/Sternum)"
"Basic: Provides 1400 additional gas points"
"Refinement 1: Your 'Climb' skill has been increased to 799 points."
"Refinement 2: Ancient Wasteland Paradise (In the last month of each year, you can enter the 'Ancient Paradise,' the Ancient Wasteland Paradise Qi Refiner's grotto)"
"Refinement 3: Monster Heavenly Body - White Ape (Estimated Effect/Not Achieved)"
"Hint: Your 'Climbing' skill has been increased to 799 points."
"Climbing 799: You are very good at climbing and crawling."
You love trees very much; you can play with a tree branch all day long.
You can climb smooth rock faces at high speeds with your bare hands; when moving through dense jungles, you will gain a 120% movement bonus and a 120% dodge bonus; you will not consume extra stamina while climbing.
Your limbs will not rub against the object you are climbing due to accidents or mistakes...
"Climbing over 700 points, you've achieved a new milestone - Tarzan!"
Tarzan: You're not much different from a monkey.
"Corresponding title: King of the Forest (Raises the affinity of all creatures that love green to 'Worship')"
This Immortal Bone is of very high quality.
Although the application scenarios for the skill of "climbing" are relatively narrow.
However, any skill that reaches 799 points will not be of low value.
In terms of fundamentals.
1400 points of Qi is also quite good.
As for the ancient Qi Refiner ' grottoes, they inspire much imagination.
The blessed land of "Jade Phoenix Nest" has so many benefits.
The opportunities in a grotto-heaven are never too bad.
However, this is not the last month of the year.
Further exploration will require time.
It is worth mentioning.
After exchanging for the third Immortal Bone.
A brand new mini-shop has been added below the list of Exorcism Mission.
They only sell one type of item inside—
"Refining Recipes (describes the refining methods and raw materials for various Tier 1 Immortal Bone)"
Considering that the requirement for the fourth Immortal Bone fragment has reached an outrageous 100,000.
Roger decisively chose to exchange for the refining recipes of the three Immortal Bone he currently possessed.
to this end.
He paid the price of 7,000 Immortal Bone fragments.
After the exchange is complete.
Roger checked and found that he had almost all the raw materials needed for refining Immortal Bone—
The only missing item in the "White Ape Heart Bone" list is "Heart of an Ape Monster (Transcendent or Higher)".
However, the tempering of Immortal Bone is not something that can be done simply by having the raw materials available.
Take the "Formless Sword Bone" as an example.
During its refining process, it needs to find a "cold and gloomy place where earth fire and seawater intertwine".
Roger thought it over and over.
It seems that only the seabed of the Arctic Ocean in Qoonan could possibly be the place to find a similar place.
The tempering environment for the other two Immortal Bone was simpler.
But Roger couldn't free up his hands for the time being.
It can only be temporarily listed in the plan list and will be left for later.
Besides the Immortal Bone.
Roger's biggest gain from this trip was "Xia Yin Value".
After clearing out the "Filthy Dungeon".
Roger's Xia Yin Value had reached over 70,000, approaching 80,000.
For him.
It's been a long time since we've had this much Xia Yin Value.
He pondered it over and over again.
We've decided to invest it in "Charge Up"!...
"Notification: You have consumed 50,000 Xia Yin Value points."
"Your Charge Up power at each level has increased to 175%."
"Your ' Ten Years One Sword ' power has been increased to 800%"
On the surface.
The power of the Ten Years One Sword, is only 100% higher than before, based on its base power.
But in the eyes of ordinary people.
This is already an extremely abnormal number.
Perhaps 7x power and 8x power don't seem that different.
But everything is built up gradually like this.
From 500% at the beginning to 800% now.
Only Roger himself knows the hardships and joys he has experienced along the way.
He firmly believes that in the near future...
This number will increase to 1000% or even more!
Intermediate time.
It works in conjunction with the "Experience Regression Scroll".
He will also unleash an even more terrifying power!
Besides Immortal Bone Fragments and Xia Yin Value.
The spoils from the cave expedition were rather unremarkable.
After leaving the cave.
Roger entrusted the matter to Hades and Mia.
He himself traveled north along the rugged mountain road.
Finally, they climbed a mountain peak south of the Great Desert.
The highest point of the mountain.
Roger gazed at the northern horizon.
It was dawn.
The blood-red mist that had shrouded the south for days gradually dissipated in the morning light.
Gradually.
A break in the morning light.
A series of images, resembling a fleeting glance, appeared.
The main character in the picture is a Martial Artist carrying a stick.
Its shape is indistinct.
But it is full of righteousness.
Kill the Blood Worship Cultist with sticks.
Punch down the monsters in the underground cave.
Images flashed by rapidly.
That was the eruption of a long-accumulated "regional anomaly"!
"Regional Anomaly: You have eradicated the Blood Worship Cultist near Lotus City and dispelled one-third of the Blood Mist in Mystra."
Your exorcism will be perceived as an 'anomaly' by the following groups: those with a perception level of 16 or higher; mages or other spellcasters who have used a crystal ball to divine the ' Lotus City Event' within the past week; bards of level 25 or higher; and a small number of ordinary people.
"Your Milestone - A New Record Set in Heroic Legend"
"Heroic Legend (Lotus City / Great Desert / Southern Tomb Wilderness): Since the 'Reopening of the Mountain Gate' incident."
Roger, the Clear Spring Sect Master, makes his first public appearance!
He created three thousand clones and slew countless evil followers;
Transforming into Yellow Beard, he slayed countless demons with his club;...
The residents of Lotus City have begun to sing your name.
But compared to your real name.
They seem to prefer the new nickname that's been circulating about you—
The name ' Staff Hero Roger ' is destined to be recorded in the annals of Lotus City.
"What the hell?"
"Why are my nicknames always so weird...?"
See here.
Roger silently shook his head.
However, he had already achieved his goal—
He deliberately announced his name in the square in order to spread his message through the power of the strange phenomenon.
According to the consistent virtue of the vision.
The disciples of the Clear Spring Sect will surely receive their message.
At that time.
They should have had a chance to contact me by now, right? But the next second...
The notification that flashed across the data bar made Roger frown slightly.
"Regional Anomaly: The Wilderness Blessing's Polishing Failed!"
"Sixth Sense: You sense that someone is secretly preventing your phenomenon from spreading; the area north of the Southern Tomb Wilderness cannot sense your phenomenon..."
"Damn it!"
Roger clenched his fists in anger.
Blood of Myriad Filth!
This is outrageous!
"I was originally planning to keep one trump card up my sleeve..."
"Now it seems..."
"We can't take it anymore!"
This thought came to mind.
Roger decisively took out the long-forgotten item from the Tinder Pouch!
It was a stone carved with mysterious runes!...
Hint: You crushed the ' Tomb Suppressing Stone '.
"Forced teleportation in progress..."
"You returned safely to the vicinity of the ' Blank Tombstone '."
Hint: You have discovered the ' Secret Vault of Clear Spring Sect '
Open your eyes.
Roger's eyes were drawn to the familiar objects inside the vault.
The dim candlelight flickered quietly in the corner.
The air smelled musty.
The door to the secret vault is directly opposite him.
Because without the Clear Wind Token and the Jade Spring Token, no one else can enter the secret vault.
Roger placed his hands on the door.
He was somewhat agitated.
The next second.
He pushed open the door to the secret vault with all his might.
Blinding light shone in from the outside.
Along with this came bursts of noise.
