The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle-Chapter 138 - 131 The Third Task (Two in One)_2
Cheng Feng blinked and exclaimed, "Isn't the third mainline all question marks?"
"Actually... It seems we are heading towards the third mainline."
Sword White Clothes' voice came slowly, his gaze fixed on the record book as he said gravely, "From all the signs so far, we've completely taken the opposite path. This is a place others almost certainly would not reach."
"If we follow this line of thought, then the third special mainline... is probably hidden here, and it might be related to that terrifying entity."
Sword White Clothes glanced at Su Qi again.
In fact, he had another thing to say... If it hadn't been for Su Buxian, they couldn't have possibly arrived here.
And the latter seemed to show a dawning understanding, "So that's how it is."
It looked like he had just realized, but there was a sense of dissonance.
"..."
Sword White Clothes could no longer tell.
"So, if we continue moving forward, are we very likely to encounter that terrifying entity?" Cheng Feng's face changed dramatically.
"Not necessarily."
Su Qi's denial eased Cheng Feng's expression a great deal.
But the next sentence nearly made him fall apart.
Su Qi muttered to himself, "There's a very high probability we'll die before we even get close."
That was the data he saw in the record book, which indicated that many Maintainers had been dispatched, but without exception, all had perished.
"Damn!"
At that moment, Cheng Feng saw the broken Skullmen return to their coffins and were steadily recovering, "What are we going to do then! Whether we move forward or stay here, we'll be consumed to death!"
Sword White Clothes' expression became extremely grave at this point.
He could not die!
His trial had already begun, and if he were to die here, it would mean a failed job transfer, and the precious Ancient Relic would disappear entirely! This was a huge blow for both him and his club!
And just then.
Su Qi looked into the distance... A terrifying Ripple suddenly burst forth from afar, exploding like a violent storm!
The entire space shook as if it were vibrating!
The ground cracked open continuously!
The surrounding tombstones also developed cracks, and the Skullmen in the coffins shuddered!
The three of them could not even stand steady!
They were even struck by the impact and sent flying!
Cheng Feng thrust his spear into the ground, hugging the shaft to avoid being thrown backward, but he was still left floating in the fierce assault!
His face was filled with terror, "What's happening?! And..."
Cheng Feng roared at Su Qi, who had grabbed his shoulder, "Can't you stand on your own?!"
Su Qi didn't respond, looking instead towards the source of the impact and said with serious consideration, "It's Feeding Day... It's gathered the energy it absorbed, and that terrifying entity seems to be fighting against it! This must be the impact of their confrontation!"
"Holy shit, even the Ripples of spatial fluctuations are terrifying when transmitted over here!" Cheng Feng's eyes widened in shock.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The impacts continued!
This chapter is updat𝓮d by freēnovelkiss.com.
All the surrounding tombstones cracked, and deep ravines formed in the ground, as if impacted by blast waves!
At the same time, eerie sounds approached!
Their heads suddenly felt heavy, and they experienced a stabbing pain!
Information appeared in front of them!
[Spiritual Power -3]
"There are also spiritual impacts here!" Sword White Clothes, holding onto a tombstone and his sword thrust into the ground, realized this and looked both grave and deeply wary.
"The third task is simply impossible to complete!"
The so-called record book was right!
They couldn't even get close!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The space behind them vibrated, and the impacts didn't stop; they became even more intense, as if the entity was in a furious burst of rage!
And at that moment!
The cracked space behind them burst open, and a huge wave of Erosion Liquid surged forth from the gap!
The connecting point was slightly Twisted! It was forcibly torn open, revealing twisted illusions!
Su Qi's eyes flickered slightly, and he spoke softly, "Gentlemen!"
"It seems we can leave this place now."
Cheng Feng shouted, "What do you mean?!"
Su Qi answered, "The record book has... these spaces are all forcefully connected. Once distortion occurs, it indicates a gap has appeared, allowing us to break free."
Sword White Clothes was startled, wondering how he hadn't seen that!
But he turned to look at the Twisted illusion, which indeed seemed to show the phantom shadows of a City, corridors, and more.
"You're right, Brother Su,"
Su Qi smiled.
Sword White Clothes' gaze hardened, and he said solemnly, "Then let's go with the flow of the impact and get past it!"
"Okay!" Cheng Feng eagerly responded.
He gently pulled up his long spear, and his body was immediately pushed backward by the impact!
But at that moment,
Su Qi's hand, which had been resting on his shoulder, also let go.
"Ah?? Brother Su, what are you doing?"
Cheng Feng suddenly startled.
Su Buxian, one foot on the tombstone, wasn't planning to leave, smiled and said, "You guys go ahead, I still have some things to do."
Sword White Clothes said in a heavy tone, "Brother Su Buxian, you're not still thinking about that third mainline quest, are you?"
"It's impossible to complete under these circumstances!"
"The most important thing is to survive and complete the transfer!"
Sword White Clothes, being a nice guy, hadn't forgotten to remind Su Qi even now.
"Don't worry, I'm a rational player, I never act recklessly," replied Su Qi with a light smile.
Right now, he was in the process of completing his character transfer.
Death was the easiest to collect, he had completed that... but the Abyss and Old Days were significant challenges.
At this moment, Su Qi, even though caught in the midst of the impact,
saw an information box appear before his eyes.
[Old Day Point Collected]
[Current Progress: 1/1000]
Which meant that within this impact, there was something related to the Old Days...
How could he possibly let it slip by?
The terrifying Ripples fluctuated even more strongly!
The spiritual impact caused both Sword White Clothes and Cheng Feng to feel their heads swell, and staying any longer would likely be bad news.
"Brother Su..."
Sword White Clothes looked at Su Qi, his expression growing more solemn, "We will complete the escape mission as quickly as possible, and by then you should also be able to be transferred out!"
Typically, once a quest was completed, other players could also get the completion progress, but if their participation was zero, the overall evaluation would be very low, possibly single digits, or they might not receive any Experience or Game Coin.
"Alright alright," Su Qi said, smiling, "Don't worry, if you guys can't get out, I will also complete the third mission."
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Cheng Feng turned his head back, cursing, "You'd better not freaking die!"
The two of them then left the area.
Only then did Su Qi withdraw his gaze, controlling the liquid metal to create spikes under his feet, anchoring himself firmly to the ground so the impact wouldn't whisk him away.
He muttered to himself, "Old Day Point isn't increasing anymore."
After the initial point of progress that had appeared, there had been no more movement.
"It seems I need to move closer."
Su Qi began to move forward, advancing toward the next area against the impact!
He was like Sword White Clothes.
Once the death collection was complete, a message popped up in front of Su Qi.
[Death gathered, trial officially initiated]
[Please note, you still need to gather items from the Abyss and the Old Days (Reminder to players, all this must be completed within this instance, if the transfer is not successful upon exiting the instance, the trial will fail, and the Ancient God's Heart will disappear)]
Therefore, Su Qi had his reasons to move forward.
Most importantly...
"Roar!"
A wisp of residual phantom appeared before Su Qi, dispersing with the impact, twisted like a specter.
The next moment.
[Spiritual Power -4]
From the information box before his eyes, the greatest threat of this impact was spiritual power.
If that's how it was going to be played,
Su Qi felt the problem wasn't too big.
Relying on the liquid metal and Dark Wind Boots, he moved step by step closer, while the space in between shattered, and original dangers... like the Insect Nest, the Weird Mask House, the Death Gauntlet.
They all trembled and collapsed under the impact!
"This really is... quite fortunate."
If these areas were to be crossed normally, they would likely be extremely lethal danger zones, no wonder no Maintainers dared to come close.
"I really did get lucky."
He murmured to himself, "Of course... it could also be a death wish."
Su Qi looked ahead into the dark space.
The horror of the waves and the spiritual impact poured down like from the Sky Dome! Further, endless Black Fog churned, containing a terrifying energy bursting forth!
As if it wanted to bring Destruction to everything!
And at the same time,
A popup window appeared before his eyes.
