Chapter 182: Self challenge -11!
He had to keep moving; there was still so much to explore and discover in this twisted place, and most of all, pass the trial.
Not to mention, Bai Lung’s bloodlust fueled by the thrill of battle and the desire to increase his power, he set off into the depths of the forest, searching for any signs of dark life.
Swoosh~
The air was thick with tension as he navigated through dense dark yet dead forest and overturned boulders.
His senses heightened to an almost unbearable degree.
After what felt like hours of relentless pursuit, he finally caught sight of a group of dark creatures lurking in the shadows.
His eyes went cold and his lips curved.
Their bodies were twisted and deformed, oozing an eerie black substance that left behind a trail of corruption wherever they went.It was something like a giant deformed spider with multiple legs, that Bai Lung couldn’t even count.
Luckily it was only four, so, Bai Lung thought they were an easy target.
With a cold determination in his heart, Bai Lung was ready for another battle.
At the same time,
The creatures, sensing his presence, sprang into action, attacking with reckless abandon.
Kiickkk!
Keeek!
Kiii???
They hurriedly came at him from all sides, their limbs stretching and contorting into grotesque shapes as they attempted to tear him apart.
The scene was straight horrifying seeing such phenomena.
Despite their best efforts, Bai Lung remained unfazed.
Using his skill with the golden shards, he blocked their attacks with ease, sending one of them flying back.
Just as one was flying backward, instantly a shard with dazzling light pierced right through its middle part causing the dark-mutated spider to vanish into thin air, dropping a black crystal that was twice as big as compared to those in Dark slimes.
Sensing an opportunity, he launched a series of shards directly at their leader. A big one who seems to be Alpha, controlling the others.
It was a massive spider whose very existence seemed to warp reality around it. Everytime it walked, those hundred of legs if it was destroying the corrupted land, and not to mention, the distorted space around its presence.
Just by standing there, it was intimidating.
However, Bai Lung was happy to see how much power he possessed.
Swoosh~
Swoosh~
With his menacing cold eyes, he controlled his shards and attacked the leader
he shards struck true, piercing deep into its chest and exploding in a shower of dazzling light.
Krrrreckkkkk!!!
The creature let out a pained roar before collapsing onto the ground, lifeless.
Encouraged by his success, Bai Lung pressed forward, cutting down the remaining two dark creatures with ruthless efficiency.
As each one fell, he collected their broken crystals, adding them to his growing collection, while he went and stood in front of the leader, who didn’t vanish even after dying.
Since his skin was weak against the touch of the dark matter, he didn’t bother touching it, instead, he controlled the shards and shredded its skin to see what was so special in it compared to others who instantly turned into smoke and vanished once the crystal was destroyed.
…
After hours, Bai Lung found nothing special in it aside from the fact that this ‘leader spider-like monster ‘ had three crystals instead of one.
Day103 – Day 110
Since, his shards had become even more powerful than before, his hunting spree continued,
From day 103 to 110, he had planned multiple monsters and had collected a few more shards making it a total of 8, while those black crystals were useless so, he dumped them all.
From hunting a tall towering dark monster to small small dark creatures, Bai Lung hunted them all.
Not only that, but, he even wiped out a colony of ghostly creatures, however, Compared to others, those ghostly figures with heads of horses, upper bodies of humans, and tails didn’t drop any black crystal instead they dropped a strange-looking white pearl.
And using those white pearls, Bai Lung managed to strengthen his shards even more.
Day 110 – 150!
These were the days when Bai Lung felt nothing, he was pushed to darkness as his daily routine and search and hunt.
He didn’t rest anywhere, he just continued going from place to place hunting those monsters.
After many days, he finally arrived at a city that looked a little familiar but he had long forgotten, he couldn’t recall the memory of the days he had spent in this world.
With cold sharp dead eyes, and a straight face free from the pollution of a corrupted world, he walked around while the shards floated around him.
And finally, on day 150, he once again saw the huge dark monster.
‘ Oh! That must be it… ‘ Bai Lung thought heartlessly looking at the dark creature at the size of a mountain.
Swoosh~ swoosh~
The shards moved rapidly leaving a trail of golden light, penetrating the body but nothing major happened.
The large creature didn’t even bother looking at Bai Lung, it was just looking at the sky above.
The shards were causing no damage to him, and its dark matter didn’t let him feel any pain.
Swish!
Spinning like a hurricane, the shards pierced through its every part but caused no damage at all.
The large creature didn’t even feel it was being pierced by 8 deadly magical shards.
Feeling frustrated Bai Lung left.
Since he couldn’t do anything, why bother wasting time?
Day 150 – 164
Feeling helpless, he searched for ghostly creatures and began to cause a massacre for those white pearls, and after a few days, he even forgot why he was hunting these creatures.
Around Day 165, he stopped hunting for monsters… His memory from not just this world but the world before was also foggy. He forgot almost everything.
Thud!
He fell to the ground, feeling tired for the first time after so many days.
