Chapter 398: Chapter 404: The Terrifying Monster Beneath the Lake
Deep within the third layer of the Ancient Prison.
An inconspicuous secret pathway was opened.
Hang Yu’s team erged from it, with the reconnaissance husky shivering imdiately, "Ooh, it’s hot enough to bake a dog inside, and cold enough to freeze a dog outside, truly a world of ice and fire!"
Dark, eerie, strange... cold!
This is the situation in the third layer of the Ancient Prison.
As they stepped into this place, it was as if they had entered an extre Ice Prison. Ice shards quickly appeared on their bodies, automatically sustaining continuous ice attribute damage, with life energy slowly decreasing, and their agility attribute being affected.
Hang Yu said to everyone, "We’ve taken a shortcut, presumably to get ahead of Kaliemlo. We must not leave any traces to avoid being discovered."
Before setting off.
Hang Yu and the others had made all the preparations. First, they used scent-eliminating powder, drank a stealth potion and a Turtle Breath Potion, and then used a Skill Scroll for shadow concealnt, using all possible ans to conceal their presence.
Believe it or not.
Even experts from Sand Spring City.
Would find it difficult to detect any residual traces.
The Centaur Race does not have high talent in tracking.
"The team from Sand Spring City is undoubtedly exceptionally strong; relying solely on our strength, we cannot shake them." Zhao Ming was uncertain about Hang Yu’s plan, "Are we supposed to hide now and wait for the right opportunity to ambush them?"
Xu Tianhua suggested, "I reckon it will still take a considerable amount of ti for Sand Spring City to get here. Maybe we can get ahead of them and eliminate a few important monsters first."
Hang Yu shook his head, rejecting both of their suggestions.
The Great Lord’s strength is above that of the Ancient Prison Warden.
Other experts from Sand Spring City are not likely to be much weaker than the Sand Black Viper.
Taking advantage of their entanglent with monsters, launching a sudden assault when they’re being held by the boss-level monsters? In theory, it might cause casualties to the Sand Spring City team, but executing it is extrely challenging.
First, you need to get close!
This group is not low-intelligence monsters.
They are experienced native inhabitants of the Spirit Realm!
Getting close is easier said than done?
Besides, except for Hang Yu, no one else has high-level stealth skills!
Even Hang Yu finds it difficult to approach Kaliemlo. After all, as a Great Lord, his attributes are definitely very high. He may not even need to use reconnaissance skills, perhaps his perception alone could sense Hang Yu.
Even with a lucky hand.
Killing one or two mbers.
Can Hang Yu’s team escape?
Centaurs have far too much advantage in speed.
Hang Yu said, "Don’t worry, I’ve got it figured out, first we find the ultimate BOSS’s location, Er Gou, it’s up to you."
The third layer of the Ancient Prison is ho to too many terrifying monsters.
Even Er Gou feels multiple presences that make his fur stand on end, but if you carefully sense it, it’s not hard to find that in the deepest part of the prison, there’s one most terrifying entity.
"Boss, I can feel it already, it seems not far away," Wang Ergou was visibly scared, "But its strength seems several tis greater than the Ancient Prison Warden’s. Two Ancient Prison Wardens combined might not be as strong as this entity... Can we really provoke sothing like this?"
The others turned pale upon hearing this.
Two Ancient Prison Wardens combined aren’t its equal?
Just how terrifying is this entity? Hang Yu’s team already struggled to defeat the Ancient Prison Warden, and an entity like this is surely well beyond their limits.
"Lead the way!"
The group set into motion.
Hang Yu’s team’s movent was incredibly slow.
Because the third layer’s Ancient Prison’s chanisms are not only nurous but lethal, Hang Yu did his best to avoid triggering them based on his mory, taking five hours to reach the destination.
"This is the place!"
Every cell in the Ancient Prison is extrely large, no different from palaces, and this one is especially so.
The main door was actually open.
Inside, there was a sizable lake.
A gray-black lake, deathly silent, like a mirror with not the slightest ripple.
This vast space was filled with dense fog, higher in level than the Fog Tower’s mist. At Hang Yu’s current level and power, he couldn’t penetrate it, and his visibility was no more than twenty ters.
On site, aside from Qin Mu, the others could barely see more than five ters, while Qin Mu, being a Spiritual Professional, had a very high spiritual sense attribute, giving him a viewing range of up to fifty ters.
"Do you feel anything?" Zhang Xiaoqiang suddenly felt a headache, which was followed by a very uncomfortable feeling, "I’m dizzy, my head hurts, I feel like throwing up, as if suddenly pregnant, and it sounds like sothing is whispering in my ear."
"That’s right!"
" too!"
"This dog feels it too, the closer I get, the stronger this feeling is, ooh... This dog feels cursed, my life energy is dropping faster!"
Everyone was the sa.
Apart from the omnipresent ice attribute erosion.
It seed they were also assaulted by so spiritual power, not only making the body uncomfortable but also causing hallucinations and whispers, and even continuous life energy loss.
Relatively speaking, however.
Hang Yu and Jiang Nan’s symptoms were lighter.
Hang Yu was wearing a "Spirit Defense Necklace" of blue quality, and Jiang Nan, being a Holy Professional, had higher divine and will attributes, which helped mitigate the effects.
"The ultimate big BOSS of the Ancient Prison is right here, currently still asleep, but even in dormancy it affects any creatures that co close."
"Don’t touch the lake water. Once it’s touched, the entity will be awakened from its slumber."
"Alright, everyone drink your potions and follow
closely."
Everyone took out the prepared potions and drank them, including life recovery potions, spiritual resistance enhancent potions, and potions temporarily increasing will attributes, then followed Hang Yu inside.
Without touching the eerie lake water.
Carefully advancing along the edge of the land.
Strange things occasionally drifted over from the mist.
Unexpectedly, they were tentacle-like objects similar to octopus arms.
They extended directly from the water’s surface, slowly swaying back and forth, predominantly purplish-red in color. What’s most terrifying is that these tentacles were densely packed with eyes.
Of course.
These eyes.
Were currently shut tight.
As if they were already asleep.
The tentacles seed plentiful in the lake, and every ti they neared these tentacles, the group’s spiritual attacks would intensify, even with all the prepared potions, it was still an overwhelming sensation.
Sweat ford on their brows.
Goodness, is this thing really asleep?
Can it indiscriminately unleash broad-range spiritual attacks even when asleep?
So what terrifying power would it unleash if awakened?
The area was vast.
It took over half an hour.
Hang Yu finally led everyone to the northeastern corner of the prison, where the land area was slightly larger and relatively further away from the fearso tentacles, leading to weaker spiritual attacks.
"Great God, what do we do now?"
"Alright, this is it, everyone has worked hard, log off and take a rest."
Everyone was stunned.
What kind of crazy strategy is this?
Hang Yu said, "We need to wait for the right mont, but staying here continuously ans suffering under ice and spiritual attacks every second... We’re almost out of potions, so log off for now, and I’ll notify you when the ti cos."
Truth be told.
Hang Yu’s plan wasn’t complex.
He knew how strong the sleeping monster in the lake was.
The people of Sand Spring City should also know; they couldn’t possibly defeat this monster in the lake, their only option was to wake it, then try to lure it outside the giant prison for an assault.
Exploiting this point.
There is an opportunity to pursue!
The scene of the strongest big BOSS.
Usually includes the highest-spec treasure chest in the entire relic.
Under normal circumstances, Hang Yu couldn’t claim it, nor dared to, but by leveraging Sand Spring City’s diversion of the big BOSS, there’s at least a 60-70% chance!
Everyone quickly acted.
Logging off requires several minutes.
They couldn’t be attacked during these minutes.
Zhao Ming first cast a defense that enveloped everyone, temporarily shielding them from spiritual and frost attacks, calmly opening the Spirit Realm’s door, utilizing the Descender’s unique advantage, and leaving this place.
