The Sewer's Exit

Zhang Ping now had 33 abilities!

He understood abilities far better than most Awakened, but the Mysterious Sewer had him completely stumped.

Activating the ability was simple. He had mastered that with ease. But what came after?

A sewer stretching out of sight in both directions?

It wasn't that Zhang Ping couldn't stand the stench. With so many abilities at his disposal, blocking it with the full version of Nether Mist was easy enough.

The real problem was how sorely this ability tested his patience.

He had already spent a day and a night in the sewer. He was worried about everyone in his original world and wanted to get back as soon as possible. If he kept wasting time like this, it might be too late by the time he returned.

Would the Beast-Taming Zhu Family attack Mingzhu City while he was gone?

Would Prince Yue seize the chance to kill Situ Shibai?

There were too many uncertainties.

What he needed was an ability that would take him back to his original world, not one that left him wasting time in some inexplicable sewer.

Even so, he kept moving through the sewer, forcing himself to be patient. He even tried attacking its walls, but nothing worked.

It was as though the sewer simply existed here. Whatever he did, it remained the same—unchanging, forever unchanging.

"Wait!"

"What if this ability is actually a prison?"

"If it really goes on forever and can't be destroyed, I could throw captured enemies in here and leave them to fend for themselves."

Zhang Ping looked at the filth in the wastewater channel below. The thought of being trapped here sent a chill down his spine.

Then he decided to leave. After all, he still had to retrace his steps to where he had started.
