153: Chapter 70: Netherworld Train 153: Chapter 70: Netherworld Train Before the mist, the Tattooed Man prayed to so existence in terror.
Perhaps his devotion was not enough, or the signal was poor.
Such prayers couldn’t change anything; the existence he worshipped did not co to save him.
Dark tendrils rose from the mist, dragging the terrified Tattooed Man into the fog.
Soon, the horrible sounds of bones and flesh being ripped and chewed echoed from the mist.
Seconds later, a dark tendril stretched out from the depths of the thick mist, unfolding slowly before Li Yelai.
“Is the offering finally enough?
You have quite the appetite!”
Li Yelai looked at the snow-white mask in the tendril, unsurprised, and reached out to take the mask.
This was Li Yelai’s second blank mask, and theoretically, it would be his third mask.
The first mask, Overlord of Western Chu, Xiang Yu.
A gift from Li Yelai receiving the Wanxiang Wumian.
The second mask, Wolf Vanquisher of Juxu, Huo Qubing.
An evolution from the blank mask obtained after offering the Skin Stripping as a sacrifice.
But the offering for the third mask was sowhat more substantial.
Li Yelai reminisced.
After becoming a Processor, he had killed Void Realm Creatures and a host of Abnormalities, but had not obtained any masks.
The Void Realm Creatures had been explicitly sacrificed, but the Abnormalities did not seem to count as offerings; Li Yelai did not witness them being devoured.
Mr.
Shadow, it seems, would only eat Spiritual Ability Users or Void Realm Creatures killed by Li Yelai, tch, quite the picky eater…
Earlier today, Li Yelai had killed a First Awakening Spiritual Ability User believer at a base on the ground, but it had not been enough.
It wasn’t until he killed a Third Awakening Spiritual Ability User that he was given the second blank mask.
“With the increase in the number of masks, the quality of the offerings is also raising.”
“One Void Realm Creature and a First Awakening Spiritual Ability User weren’t enough, but a Third Awakening Spiritual Ability User was required to obtain a blank mask.
Not even sure if I’m at a loss…”
“This also implies that the difficulty to obtain the next masks will also significantly increase.
Next ti, perhaps a Four Awakenings?
Truly a ruthless trader, and you still expect to rember your kindness?
Disgusting, truly disgusting!” Li Yelai thought and analyzed in his mind.
The hazy vision before his eyes quickly faded, and Li Yelai’s perspective returned to the real world.
Having seen so much, but in reality, it was just a montary lapse.
In the real world, the Chaos Egg was still being gang-beaten by four Fourth Awakening Processors, one of them severing a tendril with a flying sword, uttering a disquieting shriek as it fell to the next level.
Just that shriek made Li Yelai and the other low Awakening Spiritual Ability Users uneasy.
The Soul Well showed slight turbulence.
“The gap in levels is too vast; otherwise, killing a Chaos Egg could have instantly unlocked the next mask,” Li Yelai thought to himself, taking the opportunity of the Chaos Egg’s absence to pick up his spoils of war.
The Tattooed Man was not weak in strength, and could even be said to be very strong.
But in the end, he could not withstand Calamity and died thoroughly.
His body was swallowed by the Chaos Egg, his soul eaten by Mr.
Shadow, his shadow absorbed by Li Yelai, transforming into a new mber of the Shadow Army.
A case of recycling waste, then recycling it once more.
Environntally safe and no need to worry about the possibility of resurrections.
“Others think it’s quite good!”
And his weapon was left behind.
The Fla Great Saber that Li Yelai had severed was also a C-grade Spiritual Ability Equipnt.
Best to take it with ; it might co in handy later.
Afterward, he could have the Equipnt Departnt modify or dismantle it; even if unusable, the Mysterious Material inside could be sold.
Stuffing the broken knife and Hot lt Axe together, Li Yelai then faced an approaching Black Zombie with his long spear in hand.
He was eager to test out the ability of his new mask.
As the Black Zombie drew near, Li Yelai struck out with a single-handed spear strike, Single-handed Eighteen Strokes·Elephant Trample!
At the sa ti, his left hand quickly sared across his face.
“This ti, give the True Martial Path!
Let enjoy it thoroughly!”
Li Yelai was sowhat expectant, very curious as to what kind of hero the True Martial Path mask would reveal.
He was very envious of Captain Yang Chen’s Martial Saint Form.
With such an ability, the enhancent in fighting power would be quite evident!
Just by growing stronger myself, even without trading, I could protect myself and my teammates.
Gradually breaking free from Mr.
Shadow.
The Overlord Face vanished quickly, followed by the third mask…
However, nothing happened.
Li Yelai felt no change, didn’t even see any Battlefield illusion, nor did he gain any Skill.
This left Li Yelai sowhat bewildered; after knocking the Black Zombie flying, he sared his face once more.
“If not True Martial, then give the Zero Path!
I want to be a Master Mage!”
The Zero Path’s damage was quite powerful.
At the sa tier, the output capability of Zero was dazzling.
Want to get close?
I’ll just throw a massive Fireball at you; you simply don’t have the standing to fight at close quarters!
Yet still, nothing happened.
Li Yelai was utterly confounded, and looking towards Team Leader Ben Lei who was finishing off the fallen believers, he asked, “Team Leader Ben Lei, do I have a mask on my face?”
Ben Lei was sowhat taken aback as he looked at Li Yelai’s handso face, distinctive eyebrows and piercing eyes infuriatingly handso… but nothing seed different?
Then he teased, “I know you’re good-looking, but what’s there to flaunt at this ti?”
Li Yelai was stunned; his third mask was ineffective?
That can’t be right.
He clearly had donned the blank mask, hadn’t he?
Could it be…
it hadn’t activated?
Li Yelai swung his long spear, knocking away a nearing Black Zombie, while pondering in his mind.
