Binding System-Chapter 46 Leveling Up
Ace finally understood the reason why these hyenas stopped chasing him.
It was because he had entered the Death Valley!
'Nine out of ten people die after entering the Death Valley?!'
Ace gritted his teeth.
Escape from a crocodile's mouth, enter a tiger's mouth!
These were the right words to describe his situation.
He had just escaped a dangerous situation, but now he was in an even more dangerous situation than before.
[Five new divine beings say, interesting!]
'Forget it. There is no point in complaining. I just need to find a way to get out of this Death Valley.'
He turned around and started to walk.
'What?! Where are the two small hills?'
He believed he had stood behind the entrance earlier.
Not only did he not see the entrance, but he also did not see the two small hills.
'System, do you know what is going on?'
He threw a question in his head.
[Host, you were sent to an unknown place after entering the Death Valley, so it's normal if you can't find the entrance.]
'It seems like I have to explore this place.'
He walked as he paid attention to his surroundings.
"There are so many people who died in this place."
He saw many skeletons around him.
'Hmm?'
He saw a sword stuck in the ground.
'This is a good sword, but it's covered in dust.'
When he was about to take the sword, something unexpected happened.
The sword turned to dust when it came into contact with his left hand!
'Did this sword rust for hundreds of years? Or is there a mysterious power in this place?'
He walked again.
To his surprise, a huge magic circle suddenly appeared above him.
Ace lifted his head to look at the magic circle.
'Danger!'
He immediately jumped to the left when a red lightning bolt shot down towards him.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The red lightning continued to strike.
"Agh…" he cried out in pain when a bolt of red lightning hit his body.
'I have to find a place to hide.'
His eyes swept across the area as he took in his surroundings.
'There!'
He saw a small cave fifty meters in front of him.
He rushed towards the small cave as he dodged all the lightning strikes.
'Another skeleton?'
He saw a skeleton in front of a stone tablet after entering the cave.
'A handwriting?'
Ace immediately read the handwriting on the stone tablet.
'I, Kenneth Willis, was a genius mage, but I failed to leave this place. I'm so pathetic. This valley indeed lives up to its name.'
Ace put Scarlett on the ground and looked at the skeleton.
'Space ring?'
He lifted his head.
'Senior, you are already dead, so I will take your space ring.'
With that idea in mind, he took Kenneth's space ring. 𝚋ｅｄｎ𝚘𝚟ｅｌ.ｃｏ𝚖
'I hope I can find something useful from his space ring.'
His eyes shone happily after checking Kenneth's space ring.
'So many good things!'
There were five 3-star magical beast cores, twenty 2-star magical beast cores, fifteen 1-star magical beast cores, 21 gold coins, 60 silver coins, 30 copper coins, two Vital of Redemption potions, and two spell books.
'Senior, may your next life be much better than your previous life.'
Happiness shimmered inside him.
There were four reasons why happiness danced within him.
First, he got two Vital of Redemption potions. Even though the Vital of Redemption potion was not as good as Health Potion, but it was enough to save Scarlett's life.
Second, he got two spell books. Third, he got many beast cores, and last, he was rich now.
Ace believed he could complete Goddess Teressa's quest immediately if he managed to get out of Death Valley.
"Thank you, Monkey King." Ace decided to thank Monkey King because he was the one who saved his life after transmigrating to another world.
He would have died if it were not for the help of the Monkey King. That was why Ace decided to thank him.
[The Great Sage, The Equal of Heaven is tilting his head, confused.]
[Several divine beings want to know why you thank the Monkey King.]
Ace wasted no time and immediately poured the Vital of Redemption potion into Scarlett's mouth.
Even though she was still unconscious, but she was no longer seriously injured.
'I will drink this potion too.'
At first, he wanted to keep the last Vital of Redemption potion, but he changed his mind when he saw his wounds.
His wounds healed instantly because he only had minor injuries.
'Now let me absorb all the beast cores.'
After retrieving all the beast cores from his space ring, he read the description of the Instant Absorption card.
'What a good card!'
He praised the Instant Absorption card after reading the description.
Ace would be able to absorb the energy from a beast core instantly for thirty seconds after activating the Instant Absorption card.
Even though it was only thirty seconds, but he could absorb many beast cores in thirty seconds.
Ace shifted his gaze from the card to the beast cores in front of him.
There were six 3-star magical beast cores, twenty 2-star magical beast cores, and twenty-seven 1-star magical beast cores.
'I should absorb all of them immediately.'
He remembered something when he was about to activate the Instant Absorption card.
His system was still at level 1!
'I have to level up my system too.'
With that idea in mind, he separated the beast cores into two parts.
'Alright. This is enough.'
He divided it into sixty and forty percentage; sixty for him and forty for the system.
'System, activate Instant Absorption card.'
He said in his mind.
[Ding! Instant Absorption card activated.]
With his system's help, he could instantly empty one beast core.
After absorbing his share, he told the system to absorb the rest of the beast cores. The system finished absorbing beast cores after a few minutes.

'I finally broke through to the Master Rank.'
He smiled happily as he saw his stats.
'System, tell me about this Scan feature.'
Previously, the system notified him about a new feature.
[Host, you can scan your surroundings with this new feature, and all the information between scan ranges will instantly be sent to your mind.]
'What a good feature!'
It was an excellent feature for scouting or spying on his enemies.
'How far is the scanning range?'
[The current system is level 3, so the scan range is only 50 meters. Host can increase the scan range by leveling up the system.]
The happiness within him grew bigger after hearing the explanation.
Ace's gaze shifted from his system to the two spell books in front of him.
'Ice Clone spell book and Ice Wing spell book.'
He suddenly remembered Evelyn.
'Big sister, what are you doing right now?'
He sighed.
'I will learn these spell books now.'
These spell books could help him get out of the Death Valley, so he decided to learn them immediately.
Ace immediately grabbed the Ice Clone spell book.
[Ding! Host has discovered Ice Clone spell book. Do you want to learn it?]
