Netherworld Seven-Day Tour, Netherworld Other Shore!
"Xu Lang, what is the effect of your divine seal?" Wang Yazhi asked.
Xu Lang raised his arm again, and a blood-red emblem appeared on it, resembling the head of a demon with a peach-shaped forehead, lightning-like eyes, and mouth spewing Karmic Fire.
Wang Yazhi asked in surprise, "Killing people makes you stronger? Does that mean you can directly gain attribute points?"
"I don't know, it seems to be more complicated." Xu Lang shook his head, then added, "However, I don't plan to deliberately kill in order to complete the mission."
Killing people is nowhere near as fast as sleeping and getting stronger.
"Sizzle sizzle~"
Suddenly, a burst of mocking laughter came from Junxing's mouth.
Xu Lang and Wang Yazhi turned to look, and the latter respectfully said, "Greetings, Divine Lord."
"No need for formalities." Junxing's gaze swept over Wang Yazhi before landing on Xu Lang: "I've never seen a God-Chosen of the Asura Path who isn't bloodthirsty. Even if you don't engage in killing, the fate of killing will still find you."
Xu Lang stroked his chin, his eyes clear. "I'm really not into fighting. Actually, I prefer sleeping to fighting people."
Junxing looked at Xu Lang carefully for a moment, then said nothing more.
Just then, the others also completed their tasks and emerged from the black vortex.
Cao Yaxuan and the others were all safe and sound, and they even gained the identity of "God-Chosen".
But the Enlightenment Studio wasn't so lucky.
They all chose a deity statue, and in the end, only three people survived: Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor, Tao Xiu, and Zhang Jie.
There was a moment of silence among the three of them; the atmosphere wasn't good.
The fourth level of the Netherworld Path is impossible for non-top players to pass unless they are extremely lucky. The three of them survived only because they all chose the same idol, which gave them a strategic advantage.
"Everyone's here. Next is the next stage, the final stop on your Netherworld Path: the Netherworld Other Shore." Drought Demon Granny coughed softly, drawing everyone's attention.
However, before she could continue, Xu Lang said, "Drought Demon Granny, I heard we can stay in the Netherworld for seven days?"
Xu Lang hadn't forgotten the contents of the Underworld Invitation.
[Introduction: Come and see, everyone! A seven-day tour of the Netherworld!]
Drought Demon Granny looked at Xu Lang with considerable surprise. "You're quite clever, kid. A normal person wouldn't think of that during a tense challenge."
Hmm? There's some explanation for this?!
Xu Lang's eyes lit up. He just wanted to sleep a few more days, so he was particularly concerned about this. He didn't expect it to actually work!
This is extremely important to him!
"Hehe, it's just a hint from Dormitory Survival Game, Grandma, is there any deeper meaning behind it?"
"Yes, the difficulty of the final level will depend on how long you stay!"
"Then we'll stay for the full seven days!"
"Are you sure? This is the first time I've heard of such a request."
Looking at Xu Lang's calm and handsome face, Drought Demon Granny narrowed her eyes, paused, and then looked at the group from Enlightenment Studio: "And you?"
"Grandma, may my two friends Dormitory Building?" Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice.
"Sister Nian, you..." Tao Xiu's face was shocked.
Zhang Jie also looked at Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor with a start, his expression far from calm.
"This defeat was my mistake; we shouldn't have been so greedy." A trace of pain flashed in Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor's eyes, then turned into a resolute look. "I will make up for my mistake!"
"But this was a decision we made together, and we were all prepared to die, Sister Nian, you don't need to blame yourself!" Tao Xiu comforted her.
"I'm not blaming myself!" Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor waved his hand to interrupt, "I just don't want to be this weak anymore, so I'm going to take this gamble, just this once!"
Xu Lang looked at Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor and was shocked to find that she had some self-destructive tendencies. This big sister was not as strong as she seemed on the surface.
"Sister Nian, you're playing with your life! I won't allow it!" Tao Xiu was completely panicked and even wanted to take action.
Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor remained silent, instead staring Drought Demon Granny.
"No." Drought Demon Granny shook her head.
Tao Xiu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes!" another indifferent, deep voice rang out.
Everyone looked toward the source of the voice and were astonished to see that the speaker was none other than the Yin Marshal General named "Yang Sui".
"You should go to the other shore with the God-Chosen of the Asura Path. I will take care of your two teammates." Yang Sui said, shooting out two beams of divine light from his eyes, enveloping Tao Xiu and Zhang Jie.
"Thank you, Divine Lord!" Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor was overjoyed.
Drought Demon Granny glanced at Yang Sui Yang Sui, then remained silent, seemingly somewhat wary of him.
Then, the statue of Yang Sui returned to its lifeless state, as if nothing had happened.
"Sister Yaxuan, what's the outline of your mission as the God Lord? It seems a bit domineering," Xu Xiaomeng nudged Cao Yaxuan and whispered.
Cao Yaxuan replied, "The Main God is the Sun Patrol Censor. We God-Chosen are to reward the good and punish the evil. Doing more good deeds will earn us rewards... Don't worry, it shouldn't conflict with your mission. These Yin Marshal seem to be of the benevolent camp, or at most neutral."
Shirley chimed in, "In Dormitory Survival Game, it's actually quite difficult to do good deeds."
"It's alright, I'm from the Platinum Luxury Apartment!" Cao Yaxuan smiled confidently, "Xu Lang said he was the head of the Civilian Anti-Black Group, right? Now I am, and I'm officially in charge!"
Next, Drought Demon Granny led everyone away from the main hall, traveling through the black mist until they finally stopped in a sea of flowers.
There is no black fog here; in front of the sea of flowers is a river that stretches as far as the eye can see.
In the center of the Flower Garden, there are two dormitories.
It was the Enlightenment Studio and the Platinum Luxury Apartment.
"Crossing that boundary signifies the start of the game." Drought Demon Granny pointed to a green flower path, then to a row of flower buds behind it. "Those are your rewards, currently forming. Once you feel they meet the requirements, begin. It's best... don't wait until the seventh day."
That row of flower buds were Epiphyllum, their surface shimmering with light, as if brewing some treasure, making them stand out uniquely amidst the sea of blood-red Red Spider Lily.
"Thank you for showing me the way, Grandma," Xu Lang said with a smile.
"I will not appear again after this. Do what you can." Drought Demon Granny Xu Lang a deep look before slowly walking into the black mist.
After Drought Demon Granny left, Tong Qi looked at Xu Lang and asked, "Lang Ge, are we going to stay here for seven days? This place is quite beautiful."
A hint of confusion flashed in Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor's eyes.
Are you sure you meant beautiful and not eerie and terrifying?
This place, though it looks tragically beautiful, is the kind of place that would terrify you even in your dreams; it's the epitome of the underworld.
"Xu Lang, Xu Lang, look over there, isn't that the River of Forgetfulness? Do you think it has the same effects as the River of Forgetfulness in Mythic?" Cao Yaxuan transformed into wind and snow, her gaze passing over the sea of flowers to look at the river on the horizon.
"I don't know. Come down, but don't cross that line," Xu Lang shouted.
Cao Yaxuan flew down, somewhat excitedly saying, "I know! I'll look around; maybe I can trigger some hidden plot points."
"In a place like this, Tong Qi should be the one to trigger hidden storylines."
Hearing Xu Lang say that, Tong Qi and Red Butterfly immediately perked up.
"Is it okay, Lang Ge?" Tong Qi's eyes lit up.
"Sure, just don't trigger the final battle prematurely. These seven days are a good time for us to rest," Xu Lang replied with a smile.
Upon hearing this, the women immediately walked away together.
Seeing this scene, Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor felt inexplicably lonely.
Not long ago, she also had a group of like-minded teammates.
