Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest-Chapter 660 - Guarding the Evil Eye
Chapter 660 -660 Guarding the Evil Eye
Returning to the Demon Den, Wang Chen felt very uncomfortable.
Actually, he had already adapted to the peculiar environment of the Demon Den, relying on his Vajra Immortality to fully resist the influence of the Yin Sha Evil Power, and with the help of the Heaven-Ensnaring Punisher Net, he wasn’t worried about the lack of Spiritual Energy for cultivation.
Yet, having spent a day playing in Yongle Immortal City, the stark difference between the two made Wang Chen’s adaptation turn into maladaptation.
This probably exemplified how easy it is to transition from frugality to luxury, yet how difficult it is to return to frugality from luxury!
Fortunately, his mindset was stable, and after readapting for one night, he got used to it again.
The next morning, Wang Chen went to the Supervisory Hall as usual to clock in. He was ready to leave after receiving his badge when unexpectedly, he was called by the Director, “Wang Chen, you are assigned to guard the West Evil Eye for the next three days, starting today.”
...
The Yin Sha Energy in the Demon Den doesn’t come from nowhere; a large portion of it stems from gaps in the Earth Veins.
The Earth holds five energies, of which Yin Sha Energy is one. The major sects of the Immortal Gates, while harnessing nature’s spiritual energy, also find ways to channel away the coexisting Yin Sha Energy.
Or to utilize it.
This practice is meant to maintain the balance of the five energies, to prevent insurmountable issues from arising within the Earth Veins!
The Demon Den is exactly the location of a Yin energy outlet beneath Yongle Immortal City.
Divided into East, South, West, and North Evil Eyes!
Guarding the Evil Eye is undoubtedly within the scope of Wang Chen’s daily duties, and therefore he had no possibility of refusal.
After receiving the task plaque and Pills and Talismans, Wang Chen set out towards the West Evil Eye.
Guarding the Evil Eye is an extremely arduous and quite dangerous job.
Wang Chen had long heard other prison guards discussing it.
Because the area around the Evil Eye is prone to the appearance of spirit monsters and can attract a large number of Evil Wraiths, it is quite appropriate to call it a death zone.
Moreover, “guarding” is not repressing; strictly speaking, the term “surveilling” would be more accurate for this task!
Wang Chen was not frightened by any of it.
Heading to the West Evil Eye, he had to pass through a long, long tunnel.
Evil winds blew through this tunnel year round, and ordinarily very few people were willing to come here to seek discomfort.
Following the map’s directions, Wang Chen first pinpointed the location of the Evil Eye.
Because of the fierce evil winds, the connecting passageways were barren, strewn with scattered minerals flickering with gray or dark silver light.
Wang Chen first cast the Heavy Light Shield Armor upon himself, then with sword in hand, he bolted forward with fierce speed!
In the next moment, Wang Chen transformed into a dazzling streak of sword light, instantly breaking through the obstruction of the Yin Sha Energy and arriving at the recklessness and impulsiveness characteristic of the Moon Sha Profession.
Strangely, when Wang Chen rushed to the deepest part of the tunnel, there was no path ahead.
Then he broke through a layer of silent Mana Barrier!
The scene before him suddenly changed.
And Wang Chen landed on an exceedingly soft sofa cushion.
To be precise, inside a small house.
Outside the house, no matter how rampantly the Yin Sha Energy raged, it couldn’t break through the cover of the barrier.
Inside was another world!
This was the safe house for the Evil Eye, meant for resting and recovery for the cultivators guarding the Evil Eye.
Guarding the Evil Eye wasn’t meant to send prison guards to their deaths; the Forbidden Prison Department had made thorough arrangements.
For instance, this curious little house that exists between the Evil Eye and the connecting passageway acts like a large Magical Treasure, not only fully equipped inside but also stocked with various supplies.
Food, drinks, clothing…
But Wang Chen didn’t come to explore. He waited for the evil winds to subside before venturing out.
The house might be safe, but to complete his task, he couldn’t just hide away indefinitely. Otherwise, without any achievements, punishment would be the most natural consequence.
After half a “two hours,” the evil winds stopped.
Wang Chen sat inside the house, calmly waiting for the optimal moment to leave.
He was also reviewing the task-related information on the task plaque.
At this moment, Wang Chen stood up and pushed the door open to leave.
Threads of Evil Qi, like extremely sharp thin needles, constantly pricked his skin.
Attempting to drill into Wang Chen’s body!
At the same time, the grayish-black evil power contained in the Yin Sha Energy was also incessantly eroding Wang Chen’s skin!
For a Cultivator, there was hardly an environment worse than this.
Wang Chen activated his Heavy Light Protective Armor and headed towards the location of the Evil Eye.
One step, two steps, three steps…
Although this was Wang Chen’s first time being responsible for guarding the Evil Eye, he knew nothing about the West Evil Eye.
But that did not hinder Wang Chen from carefully advancing step by step, familiarizing himself with the environment here.
The closer he got to the destination, the higher the concentration of Yin Sha Energy in the surrounding space became!
Visibility was extremely low as far as the eyes could see.
Wang Chen first fortified himself with Heavy Light Shield Armor and then, holding his sword, he dashed forward with a burst of speed!
The next moment, Wang Chen transformed into a dazzling and blinding sword light, instantly breaking through the blockade of Yin Sha Energy, and arrived with the recklessness and impulsiveness characterized by the Moon Sha Profession.
Strangely, when Wang Chen flew to the deepest part of the tunnel, there was no longer any path ahead.
Then he broke through a silent Mana Barrier!
The scene before him suddenly changed.
And Wang Chen landed on an extremely soft sofa cushion.
To be precise, inside a small house.
Outside the small house, no matter how rampant the Yin Sha Energy was, it couldn’t break through the obstructing barrier.
The interior was a world of its own!
This was the safe house of the Evil Eye, designed for Cultivators guarding the Evil Eye to rest and recover.
Guarding the Evil Eye wasn’t about sending prison guards to their death. The Forbidden Prison Department had made thorough arrangements.
Such as this peculiar little house, existing between the Evil Eye and the connecting passage. It was equivalent to a sizeable Magical Treasure, not only with complete facilities inside but also with all kinds of supplies available.
Food, drinks, clothes…
But Wang Chen wasn’t there for an adventure; he was waiting for the evil winds to die down before exploring further.
The little house was safe, but to complete the mission, he couldn’t just stay put indefinitely, or else accomplishing zero victory and facing punishment would be all but normal.
After half a two-hour period, the evil winds stopped.
Wang Chen sat inside the house, calmly waiting for the best moment to leave.
Meanwhile, he browsed the information related to the mission on the mission board.
At this moment, Wang Chen stood up and pushed the door open to leave.
