Chapter 925: Chapter 926 Second Floor_1
Song Jian, holding the Key of Sacred Light, bade farewell to Tula and others, and under the envious gazes of several players, he walked towards the white tower in the center of Sky City;
Near the white tower lay the most important area of Sky City, hosting many significant buildings which had evolved into secret realms. In the eyes of the players, these were several instances.
However, to enter these instances, players had to hunt the monsters in Sky City, and only by obtaining secret keys from the defeated monsters, could they access the instances;
Nowadays, more and more players were entering Sky City, and although the monster levels were generally two to three levels higher than those of the players, they quickly formed five-person squads to start hunting these monsters. In just half a day, the respawn rate of the monsters in Sky City couldn’t keep up with the killing speed of the players, and competition for monsters became common;
Along the way, Song Jian encountered players fighting over monsters three times, but it was also because there were more and more players that not a single monster attacked him, allowing him to reach the white tower with ease;
Currently, many players had gathered around the white tower. They simply sat on the ground on top of black cloths, which were laid out with various items looted from Sky City;
Among these items, there were quite a few with decent attributes, but the most common were the secret keys to the various instances, given that these keys could be looted from ordinary monsters with a not so small chance;
Some players had already started forming temporary teams, preparing to take on these instances.
“Warrior’s Holy Temple instance team, four DPS looking for one tank, must have key!”
“Justice’s Holy Temple needs a healer, healer with over three hundred healing power, come on!”
…
Many players had started to call for team members in the regional channel, because a team only needed one key to enter an instance, making those players with keys highly sought after, and those who set up stalls to sell various keys made a good profit;
Song Jian went straight towards the white tower, also known as the Prayer Temple, which was the largest secret realm in the entire Sky City. Although it was also a fifth-level secret realm, its difficulty was much lower than that of Abyssal Shadow. After all, Abyssal Shadow was a forty-man fifth-level instance, while Prayer Temple was only a ten-man fifth-level instance;
At this moment, quite a few players were squatting at the entrance of Prayer Temple. Seeing Song Jian approach, these players immediately crowded around him, staring at him with eyes full of anticipation;
The Prayer Temple was the biggest instance in the entire Sky City, and correspondingly, its keys were especially hard to obtain. Up until now, only two or three Key of Sacred Light fragments had appeared, and they were all dropped by bosses;
There were teams offering up to one hundred thousand Doomsday Coins for a fragment of the Key of Sacred Light, but they were hard to come by, and none had been purchased so far;
Seeing Song Jian walking straight to the Prayer Temple, the leaders of two teams’ eyes lit up, and they immediately surrounded him;
“Hey, brother, do you have a key to the Prayer Temple? We’re a nine-man team with both a tank and a healer, top-notch equipment, including three rare classes. If you have the key, you can just lie down and cruise through the instance!” a warrior clad in armor said to Song Jian with a beaming smile.
“Buddy, we’re from the War Song Alliance, the biggest alliance in City of Sin, ever heard of us? If you have a key, join our team, we guarantee to clear it in one go. We are the regular army, not like those makeshift teams, reputation guaranteed!” another player, an archer in leather armor, grabbed Song Jian’s shoulder and said;
“Sorry, solo mission!” Song Jian gave the two of them a slight smile, gently shook off the hand from his shoulder and continued his stride towards the Prayer Temple;
Watching Song Jian’s retreating figure, several players looked at each other in dismay;
“Damn, a solo mission for a fifth-level instance, can a single person even beat the minor monsters inside?”
“Maybe it’s some sort of reconnaissance or exploration mission, just wander around inside and come right out?”
“Hey, I’m telling you, doesn’t this guy look familiar, like we’ve seen him somewhere before?”
“Damn, are you blind? That’s the leader of the City of Hope Alliance, the badass who nearly soloed an Overlord-level BOSS!” A player recognized Song Jian, and a look of shock instantly spread across his face.
“Overlord-level, what’s that?” a player who had just arrived in Sky City and missed the earlier fight asked;
“It’s a BOSS even more badass than Lord-level or World-level BOSSes, with over eight hundred thousand Vitality Points. It can kill a player with a single hit, a truly terrifying BOSS,” someone explained;
“Haha, are you the idiot or am I the idiot? Eight hundred thousand Vitality Points, attacks that kill instantly—what about its defense? Is its defense so strong that ordinary people can’t break through it?” The player who’d just entered Sky City said disdainfully, “If there really was such an amazing BOSS, wouldn’t it take at least a hundred people to defeat it? You’re telling me one person can kill it? Do you think I’m a moron? If there really were someone like that, I’d stream myself eating shit!”
No sooner had he finished speaking than he saw a group of players around him looking at him with strange expressions;

“Go on, then, we’ll watch you eat!”
“Do you want us to heat it up for you? A hot meal is always better!”
“One pile enough for you, or should I call a few more brothers over?”
…
The swearing player looked around bewildered, watching the other players mock him, unable to believe that someone could actually solo an Overlord-level BOSS.
Meanwhile, Song Jian had already entered the Prayer Temple. The familiar light gate and stone stairs behind it hadn’t changed at all. Clutching the Key of Sacred Light, Song Jian stepped toward the light gate;
As he neared the gate, a white light emanated from the surface of the Key of Sacred Light, and Song Jian smoothly walked through the gate to arrive at the stone stairs beyond.
Other players could only get fragments of the Key of Sacred Light, which disappeared every time they entered, but the complete Key of Sacred Light was like a reusable key that could be used multiple times;
“If I were a regular player, I could make a fortune leading a team through the gate with the Key of Sacred Light!” Song Jian looked at the complete Key of Sacred Light in his hand with a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.
However, if he were just a regular player, he probably wouldn’t have gotten this mission, nor would he have been able to obtain the complete Key of Sacred Light;
Following the stone steps upwards, Song Jian arrived at the second floor of the Prayer Temple. The second floor was a spacious hall, with small rooms all around, and level forty-five monsters everywhere. At the end of the hall, a monster with curved horns on its head and four arms knelt in front of an empty sacrificial altar, murmuring something in a low voice.
Song Jian applied the Abyss Concealment Skill and slowly made his way through the hall. His goal was the Sacred Spirit Temple, not here to fight monsters, level up, or farm equipment. He avoided unnecessary battles whenever possible;
It was just odd for Song Jian to see the monster praying toward an empty altar, making him take a couple of extra glances at it.
