The thunderous sound of impacts echoed again and again.
On the ground, that gigantic steel Battle Armor was fighting an endless number of Blood Shadows.
Hundreds of ters underground.
Going through the opening blasted by the gigantic Mobile Battle Armor, many winding secret passages were still intact.
——This was an extrely solid and perfect underground treasure storage system.
Wu Xiaode landed and imdiately squeezed into one of the secret passages.
His feet remained on the bronze hands, never touching the ground, as he continued to streak through the depths of the tunnel.
Ahead.
An underground train platform.
Wu Xiaode paused here for a mont and took the opportunity to fish out that treasure box.
——It was a gift from the Destruction Council to Siang, hoping he would show them favor and quickly leave.
Upon opening the treasure box, Wu Xiaode didn’t look at anything else but directly took out the page from the Book of Dark Seal.
The Book of the Dead imdiately opened, revealing a line of ice crystal small print:
"Do you wish to devour this page?"
"Devour," Wu Xiaode said.
The black page instantly turned into a swarm of light spots and flew into the Book of the Dead.
The Book of the Dead trembled and emitted rounds of Dark Intense Light, appearing ever more mysterious and substantial.
A sense of ancientness and antiquity wafted from the book.
Wu Xiaode was montarily curious.
He really had no idea where his awakened ability, the "Book of the Dead," stood in the hierarchy of the Death World.
It was said that the Death World had three extrely rare Death Abilities: one was his own "Book of the Dead," another was Audrey’s "Ghost Country."
And what was the third?
As he was pondering quietly, the Book of the Dead flipped open again, revealing a new prompt rune:
"You have obtained the fifth Dark Seal page."
"’Five’ is the number of the Demon King; the Book of Dark Seal was once held by the Death God."
"Thanks to this, your Soul Power has been significantly boosted."
"Current Soul Power: 70/70, including 10 points of Eternal Soul Power."
"Using the classical thod of Death Trial, you can now undergo the orthodox Death God Inheritance trial."
"Additional note: The more pages of the ’Book of Dark Seal’ you collect, the stronger the ’Descent’ you can use."
"Your ’Dark Demon King Descent’ has been enhanced, with the following effects:"
"You have gained the new strength of the Dark Demon King:"
"Soldier of the Death Intense Fla (Basic)."
"Law Skill."
"Description: Summon Death Intense Flas to envelope your weapon, sending those struck by it directly to the Death World."
Wu Xiaode quickly read through it and was overjoyed.
Soul Power had risen to 70 points, and he could now undertake the special Death God trial.
In addition to the ’Magic Immunity’, his Demon King Descent now included an impressive new offensive ability.
He was indeed right to have co here.
He drew the Desert Sword, and with a thought,
Dark Fiery Flas suddenly burst forth from the Void, adhering to the blade of the Desert Sword.
The entire sword was enveloped in black flas, looking unspeakably eerie.
"You’ve gotten stronger too, Little Wu,"
——ca the voice of the bone dragon from the Book of the Dead.
"Have you finished evolving?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"Yes, I’ve made so pretty good gains as well," Little Bone replied.
"What are they?" Wu Xiaode asked with interest.
"Have a look!"
A bone exuding a bone-chilling aura floated in the air.
Wu Xiaode recognized this bone.
——It was Little Bone’s bone dragon skill: Bone Phone 1.
"Isn’t this still Bone Phone 1?" Wu Xiaode asked with a lack of understanding.
"Little Wu, you’re looking at it wrong. Look again more carefully!" Little Bone laughed gleefully.
Wu Xiaode had no choice but to continue observing the bone.
He finally noticed sothing different.
That rectangular bone seed to have an additional scratch.
"It looks like there’s an extra scratch?" Wu Xiaode said uncertainly.
Little Bone exclaid loudly:
"That’s right! This is its significant upgrade; now it’s Bonephone 2 MAX!"
Wu Xiaode looked at the inconspicuous scratch.
A single bone.
An added scratch.
And you call this a significant upgrade?
Seeming to realize what he was thinking, Little Bone explained:
"Big Brother, you cannot underestimate this bone scratch. It’s an essential distinction from Bone Phone 1. In our Dragon Clan, one glance at this scratch and others know you’re using Bonephone 2 MAX, not the outdated Bone Phone 1——"
"In the Dragon Clan, this is a symbol of strength!"
Wu Xiaode was speechless for a mont.
"So, what’s the use of this scratch?" he asked.
"..." Little Bone.
"..." Wu Xiaode.
"Anyway... its performance has improved; at least now we can decode detailed information about the ’Immovable World,’" Little Bone stamred out.
Thinking about it carefully, it seed indeed to be so.
Well then——
"Wow, that really is amazing!"
Wu Xiaode gave a thumbs up, speaking with a tone of encouragent.
"Yes, I’ll continue to upgrade it; it will beco even more formidable in the future," Little Bone said happily.
"Will there be any new features in the future?"
"What features would you like?"
"How about ordering takeout or sothing?"
"This... this request seems to have nothing to do with combat, right? This is a Combat Skill, Little Wu,"
Audrey’s voice suddenly cut in:
"Stop! You two! Are you oblivious to the situation? The world above is about to be destroyed, and you’re discussing how to order takeout?"
Both man and dog instantly gathered their wandering thoughts.
Wu Xiaode imdiately accepted her point humbly and solemnly said, "You’re right, now we have to——ah——"
Boom!!!
A severe tremor from the ground was transmitted below again.
This section of the tunnel completely collapsed.
Everything turned dark.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
Several hundred ters away, in the section of the passage that had not collapsed.
Boom—
A figure rolled out from the dirt, shaking off the mud on his body.
"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey! Scared to death!"
Wu Xiaode was imnsely frustrated and took quite a while to clean the dirt off his face.
He possessed the "majestic authority of the lord of the Destruction Abyss" from that giant Mobile Battle Armor, imnsely strong, trivial burial was no concern to him.
"While they’re still fighting, let’s move faster."
Wu Xiaode stepped on a bronze hand and charged toward the path ahead.
But just as he was halfway there, a few professionals suddenly erged from around the corner.
Wu Xiaode was about to hit them and hastily braked, flipping in the air and landing seven or eight ters away.
The professionals moved in an orderly manner, swiftly heading towards another passage on the left.
"Quick!"
The leading professional yelled, "The treasure vault of the Shangmo family has been frozen, imdiately take away all the treasures inside, no mistakes allowed!"
Another professional holding a map looked around and shouted loudly:
"Boss, that path is buried, we might need to find a way to open a new one."
"Start right now!"
"Yes!"
Several people rapidly used their magic to create a new path.
Suddenly, an anomaly occurred—
A flash of sword light mixed with Dark Intense Flas appeared and disappeared in the Void.
These people had already made sure no one was around, all of them focused on digging the tunnel, completely unguarded, all struck by the sword’s radiance.
There was only a swish sound.
All of them disappeared on the spot.
Clang clang clink clang—
Their weapons fell to the ground.
Wu Xiaode stood in midair and slowly sheathed the Desert Sword.
So that’s how it is.
Though Siang sealed the entire world, his "Soldier of Death Intense Flas" was a Law Skill, capable of sending people directly to the Death World.
This move was quite useful!
A sheet of paper fluttered in midair, caught by Wu Xiaode’s hand.
It showed all the passages of the underground treasure vault, and in the center was a glowing dot—
indicating Wu Xiaode’s current location.
"Nice item."
Wu Xiaode muttered under his breath, fumbled over the paper for a while, and imdiately found the nearest treasure vault to himself.
The Dark Fall family treasure vault.
That’s the one.
Wu Xiaode followed the directions on the map, weaving through several secret passages and turning seven or eight corners before quickly arriving at the gate of the treasure vault ahead.
He drew the Desert Sword and cut a rectangular slot along the entire treasure vault gate.
Swipe—
The cut gate disappeared directly.
—The gate was also sent to the Death World.
Wu Xiaode stood at the doorway with his sword for several seconds, sowhat shocked.
The door had intense rune defenses.
Just like that—
sent away?
—Anything struck by this blade, be it living beings or objects, would be sent to the Death World?
The Death World is known to draw Life Force.
If there’s no way to co back alive—
then that’s really death.
Wu Xiaode paused for a mont, then swung his sword at a small stone on the ground.
The mont the stone was struck, it too disappeared.
Two lines of text appeared from the Book of the Dead:
"This is the authority of life and death, supre over all ordinary laws, its power has now first revealed itself before you."
"Please continue to strive, to unearth the true power of death."
Wu Xiaode sighed to himself.
The Book of the Dead, which awakened in the Death Demon Cave, had now evolved to a point where it began to touch the powers of the Death Authority.
This was the "Advent" of the Death system!
—Perhaps one day, he really would have a way to deal with monsters like Siang.
He strode into the treasure vault.
He took off the Holy Treasure Ring and handed it over to the skeletal dragon wandering in the Void.
"Little Bone, clean this place out."
"Got it."
The skeletal dragon road around the treasure vault with the ring in its mouth.
The golden sand and treasures were all looted.
The ring returned to Wu Xiaode’s hand.
He picked up the underground map again and looked at it—
Suddenly, footsteps sounded from outside the door, and a group of people rushed past the entrance.
"Quick!"
"Don’t let other families get ahead!"
"The ones behind, keep up, go rob the Shangmo family’s vault!"
They ran deeper into the tunnel, huffing and shouting.
After a breath,
these people ca back, their eyes glancing towards the Dark Fall family’s treasure vault.
Swipe—
Sword light flashed behind them.
All of them vanished into thin air.
From the Void, a woman’s voice rang out:
"Arian, they’re going to rob the Shangmo family’s treasure vault."
Qiong’s voice carried a complex emotion.
"Yeah, let’s play a little ga with these families," said Wu Xiaode, picking up the map again and looking at it closely.
According to the map’s display, the next treasure vault was not far.
"What kind of ga?" Qiong asked.
"Since they love to take others’ wealth so much, today I’ll take all the treasures of this underground bank!"
"Let them guess—"
"Which family made the move."
