The Yin-Heavy Trio Chooses Their Rewards
"Yay!"
Xu Ruyan handed the Soul Pot to the Ghost Child, Ghost Child immediately took it with both hands.
"Tong Bao, did you say thank you?" With no outsiders around, Tong Qi revealed her innocent nature, smiling as she patted the Ghost Child's head.
Upon hearing this, the Ghost Child actually bowed to Xu Ruyan to express his gratitude.
Xu Ruyan was somewhat surprised, but smiled and said, "No need to thank me. Just focus on developing your strength and protecting the dormitory; that's the best way to repay us."
The Ghost Child hugged and kissed the Soul Pot, which was bigger than his body, showing great affection.
The dormitory's detection abilities for the players disappeared, and the three of them were unable to investigate the detailed attributes of the Soul Pot. However, judging from its appearance, it was undoubtedly a Ghost Dao Artifact.
Next, Xu Ruyan continued to disappear into the shadows, Red Butterfly also completely transformed into Spirit Form, hiding within Tong Qi's body.
To be honest, this combination is pretty underhanded.
It appears to be just one person, but there are actually three.
One appears to be a fragile mage, but is actually protected by a bunch of Ghost Pet; one is hidden in the shadows, and the other is simply hidden inside the fragile mage's body.
Each one more sinister than the last.
All three characters possess both physical and magical damage output, with Xu Ruyan boasting strong burst damage and Tong Qi capable of summoning all Ghost Pet, giving them the resources to sustain a prolonged battle.
This wasn't the first time the three had done this; they often did it when clearing land, which is why the three sisters have a very close relationship, second only to Cao Yaxuan and Zhen Lu, their biological best friends.
In fact, all the women in the Platinum Luxury Apartment had very good relationships.
After all, we all share the same bed, which really strengthens our bond.
Of course, everyone has different personalities, and arguments and conflicts may occasionally occur. That's when Xu Lang needs to step in and take charge.
There were three waves of monsters at the Ghost Gate Pass, all of which were swept away by the Ghost Child. The other two players passed the level with almost no pressure!
Baihua Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor and the others already knew about the Platinum Luxury Apartment players' annihilation of the Thousand Illusions Dormitory players, and their hearts were filled with mixed feelings.
"Aside from the inherent danger of the Platinum Luxury Apartment players themselves, this level has been incredibly smooth sailing," Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor remarked, peering through the glass curtain wall at the slowly opening Ghost Gate Pass.
If any Mad King Building Player are here, they will surely feel the same way and empathize!
You're absolutely right, sis!!!
Xu Lang used to be the villain, now the entire Platinum Luxury Apartment is the villain!
The other Mad King Building Player were actually quite afraid of the player in Dormitory 200. She may be pretty, but she's a real killer, and she doesn't care about Blood Hatred or powerful backers!
Xu Lang passed on the trend of "indiscriminate killing" to Cao Yaxuan Cao Yaxuan the others, who then spread it to all the Mad King Building.
One leader corrupts the whole building.
"Congratulations to those born from the mortal realm for passing the first test." The Tribulation-Crossing Nether Envoy faced the three dormitories, with the gaping Ghost Gate Pass of hell behind him, filled with eerie ghostly energy, like a bottomless Abyss.
Xu Lang and the other players all came out of the dormitory.
Xia Xingyuan and his group kept a good distance from Xu Lang and the others, fearing that another fight might break out.
"These are your rewards; each team can choose one item." The Tribulation-Crossing Nether Envoy showered down a golden light.
The golden light fell before Xu Lang and his companions, revealing itself to be a series of artifacts radiating powerful auras.
"Lord Underworld Envoy, may I ask about the effects of these items?" Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor asked, bowing respectfully.
"No, you must choose for yourselves. These are all fine items from my treasury; any one of them would be enough for you to enjoy for a lifetime." The Tribulation-Crossing Nether Envoy shook his head, then pointed at the Ghost Child: "You performed excellently; you may choose one item."
The Ghost Child seemed to understand, letting out a cry and pointing repeatedly at the glittering golden objects ahead, directing Tong Qi to go over there.
He was dazzled by the sights, looking left and right, seemingly wanting everything.
"Kids don't know how to choose things, let me do it." Xu Lang covered the Ghost Child's face, glanced around twice, and then picked out two items.
One is a black jade-colored Pixiu, and the other is a nine-leafed green vine.
[Nightmare Eye - Life-Protecting Pixiu: Feeding it enough food or one million Copper Coin will put the Pixiu into a satiated state. In this state, it can withstand one fatal blow for the wearer. This item can be reused. After each meal, the Pixiu's appetite will double.]
[Nightmare Eye - Nine-Bend Spirit Vine: A rare spiritual herb that grows in the Netherworld. Those who consume it will experience a slight increase in spiritual energy and comprehension. It can be planted in Spirit Field.]
"Eeya ya!" The Ghost Child raised his hands upwards, as if he wanted to play with them.
Xu Lang let him play with it for a while, then took it away, laughing, "I'll give it back to you when you grow up."
Ghost Child: "..."
"Xu Lang is too cunning. Will that little Ghost Child ever grow up?"
Zhen Lu thought of the New Year's money she gave her mother when she was little, and muttered a curse to herself, but didn't dare to say it out loud. She didn't want to be the main character when she went to sleep next time.
The Tribulation-Crossing Nether Envoy's eyes flickered, and he nodded secretly.
Both items Xu Lang selected were of the highest quality.
In fact, there were many items with excellent potential in the treasury of the Tribulation-Crossing Nether Envoy, but Xu Lang did not choose any of them.
With the resources of two floors at his disposal, he no longer lacks items with rare attributes; what he lacks are Nightmare Coins.
Unless there are truly divine items with properties such as time, cause and effect, or resurrection, Xu Lang doesn't want to start upgrading items from low levels.
At this moment, Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor and Xia Xingyuan were also selecting rewards. Without a system to screen them, they could only rely on their eyesight.
"You can choose this one." Xu Lang looked at Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor and pointed to a Jade Thumb Ring.
This Jade Thumb Ring has a special attribute: it increases explosive power, which is crucial for martial artists.
Following the direction Xu Lang was pointing, Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor nodded and said, "Thank you."
As she spoke, she stepped forward and took the Jade Thumb Ring.
The golden light enveloping the Jade Thumb Ring vanished.
After sensing that there was no aura of curse, Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor put it on her finger.
Instantly, a surge of power rose from her body, and the flow of her blood and qi accelerated.
"Sister Nian, how are you feeling?" the man in the monk's robes asked eagerly.
After sensing it for a moment, Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor smiled and said, "The effect is very unique, at least rare, and its strength... is around level fifteen. It's a top-grade accessory!"
Hearing her say that, everyone was relieved.
In Dormitory Survival Game, some items are high-level and rare, but that doesn't mean they are practical. The most typical example is high-quality materials; without meeting the prerequisites, they are simply unusable.
"You've all made your choices, haven't you? Then I'm going to lead you to the Ghost Gate Pass!" The Tribulation-Crossing Nether Envoy said calmly, making a move to collect all the items.
Xia Xingyuan was startled and quickly grabbed a Ghost Head Saber.
For a moment, his mind was in turmoil.
Is this Tribulation-Crossing Nether Envoy targeting me?
That shouldn't be the case; am I even qualified?
"You should all go back to your dorms. There will be a slight tremor soon," the Tribulation-Crossing Nether Envoy said as he put away all his collection.
The group returned to their dormitory, and then they saw the Tribulation-Crossing Nether Envoy walk into the Ghost Gate Pass. Immediately afterward, everyone's vision went black, and the heavens and earth trembled violently, as if a great migration was taking place.
Between heaven and earth, the words of the Tribulation-Crossing Nether Envoy echoed faintly.
"The second challenge, the Yellow Springs Road, will greatly enrich my collection after I pass it."
