I have a city in another world

Chapter 6855 Mission Objective
It is indeed a good idea to erase a place that does not meet the requirements by collapsing it.

The problem is that there is no end to eradicating evil, and we must nip it in the bud. Since the problem exists, why not solve it completely?

Or perhaps, it's simply unsolvable?
Tang Zhen didn't know what had happened here back then, but he knew that there were many secrets hidden here.

Originally, once sealed away and untouched, everything was peaceful.

Now that Tang Zhen has broken the seal, the hidden monster has been released.

It was only natural that Tang Zhen was attacked.

If Tang Zhen were to withdraw now and report the news to the authorities, he would certainly receive a reward.

If it were anyone else, they would definitely do it without hesitation and would not risk their lives.

Tang Zhen came here to complete a secret mission. He was too busy hiding to willingly expose himself.

Therefore, this matter can only be handled by Tang Zhen alone, and no outsiders can be involved.

As he was thinking this, a sudden warning arose, and then a streak of dark light shot out.

Locking onto Tang Zhen's back, the speed was as fast as lightning, and it had already touched his body in an instant.

Tang Zhen's body flickered and then vanished without a trace, turning out to be a phantom.

At that moment, the main body rushed straight to the attacker's location, and a bolt of lightning shot out from its palm.

Attacks like lightning are most effective against demons and evil spirits.

With a scream, a humanoid monster was blasted out, its body covered in rotten, foul-smelling flesh and covered in black spikes—the very thing it had used to attack Tang Zhen.

Although the monster was humanoid, it was more like a plant, with flowers and leaves growing on many parts of its body.

The lightning struck the monster, blasting it to pieces and causing flowers and leaves to fall instantly.

The monster let out a shrill roar, its body swelling up like a frog, with sharp spikes constantly shooting out from its surface.

The spikes gleamed with a dark light, clearly possessing some kind of power, and the stone wall was easily pierced through.

Tang Zhen, however, was not afraid at all and easily dodged the attack. Then another thunderbolt struck the monster.

The overwhelming power ripped through the monster's body, followed by a deafening explosion.

Foul-smelling flesh splattered everywhere, internal organs and bones flew in all directions, and all sorts of messy things flowed out of the stomach.

There are skulls, tattered armor, and other sacrificial items such as wooden slips and prayer flags.

Enveloped in green slime, it gushed across the ground, emitting a foul stench.

The monster struggled a few times, clearly wanting to continue attacking, but eventually collapsed to the ground.

Just as one monster was dealt with, more roars came, and one monster after another poured out from the depths of the hall.

Seeing those hideous, twisted monsters that could barely maintain their human form, Tang Zhen attacked again without hesitation.

A burning iron chain appeared in Tang Zhen's hand, which he continuously swept towards the ferocious monsters.

Flames ignited the monsters or pierced their bodies, and sharp whistling sounds and the monsters' roars echoed continuously in the dimly lit hall.

These monsters are quite powerful, comparable to sixth-level cultivators. Once they enter the dungeon, they will inevitably cause terrible casualties.

Such a dangerous place, yet Oren City has never cleared it. Is it intentional, or is the city simply unaware of the situation there?
Tang Zhen had no time to investigate; he only wanted to complete the mission and then leave this place as soon as possible.

The moment he entered the main hall, the mission item he was carrying reacted, clearly pointing to a certain location.

After taking down several monsters blocking his way, Tang Zhen decisively moved in the indicated direction, leaving the other monsters roaring and chasing behind him.

He was content with simply completing the mission; he had no interest in slaying demons and monsters—that was the job of the official guardians of Oren City.

Following my senses, I came to a huge statue that glowed faintly in the darkness.

It was a huge eye, surrounded by wriggling tentacles, and it felt almost alive.

Upon closer inspection, the statue appeared to have transformed into a vortex, seemingly capable of drawing in one's soul. Tang Zhen casually waved his hand, and a bolt of lightning struck, destroying the statue's eyeball.

At the same time, he seemed to hear a roar, as if something had been enraged.

There was also a sense of being watched, which disappeared as the eyeballs were destroyed, and the strange atmosphere gradually dissipated.

But the deformed monsters became even angrier as a result, roaring and charging forward.

Tang Zhen casually waved his hand, setting up a barrier at the entrance to prevent the monster from getting close.

His gaze then settled on a skeleton on the ground.

The robe on this skeleton had decayed severely for some reason and was now just a pile of fragments.

The various ornaments on his body, scattered on the ground along with the decaying flesh and blood, have now all become dull and lifeless.

Tang Zhen stepped forward, reached out and grabbed the skeleton's head, and immediately the mission items on his body seemed to respond.

The mission has changed; the target is dead, so it seems the only option is to bring back the bones.

Tang Zhen had originally wanted to ask the other party why they chose such a location to meet, but now he could not get an answer.

However, he had a vague suspicion that perhaps the other party knew he would die here when the mission was issued.

The purpose of issuing the mission was to have the cultivators on the floor collect his body so that his soul could eventually return to his hometown.

Perhaps this skeleton holds some secret that needs to be brought back to the world of Loucheng.

Tang Zhen had no interest in finding out the truth; he only needed to complete his task.

Tang Zhen waved his hand to collect the bones and was about to turn and leave when his expression suddenly changed.

"They've caught up with us, just as expected."

An image appeared before them: a white-haired cultivator was forcibly breaking in, but was blocked by the barrier set up by Tang Zhen.

This is a simple obstacle set up using the rules to break the artifact, like an invisible net that can easily intercept cultivators.

Unless one masters the power of the rules and can sense the existence of the great net, one cannot break through to enter the passage.

Looking at the white-haired stall owner, although he was intercepted, he showed a hint of excitement on his face.

That's the kind of excited look you get when you see something good, and the root of that feeling lies in Tang Zhen.

It was quite obvious that the white-haired stall owner had noticed Tang Zhen's unusual behavior and seemed to want to get something from him.

The ancients did not lie; demigod cultivators are indeed a headache. Unless absolutely necessary, never provoke them, or you may bring trouble upon yourself.

With the entrance blocked, Tang Zhen could not return the way he came; otherwise, he would surely fall into the hands of the white-haired stall owner.

Such a commotion is bound to alert other forces, who are probably all trying to investigate right now.

Tang Zhen's identity is sensitive; once he appears, he will inevitably be discovered, and more trouble will follow.

This enormous underground city was extremely hostile to Tang Zhen; countless people wanted to devour him alive.

City foxes and village rats, hunting dogs and jackals, and the terrifying crocodile lurking in the shadows.

They all coveted Tang Zhen, wishing they could devour him whole. Given the slightest chance, they would swarm him.

Fortunately, Tang Zhen had made preparations before taking action, and had refined a rule talisman for himself.

Once activated, it can ignore any obstacles and instantly teleport hundreds of miles away.

This is divine intervention, so powerful it's almost unreasonable.

From the very beginning, rules are set by the strong, and it is only natural that they set rules according to their own needs.

With a thought, the rule talisman was activated, and Tang Zhen's figure vanished without a trace.
