This assassin is upright

Chapter 265 Shattering the Heart of the Secret Realm (asking for monthly tickets!)
"Temporarily improve the specified attribute..."

Yu Zhun took a deep breath, a look of surprise and joy appeared on his face.

Unlike other wish-power items he had obtained before, this item had no cooldown and no upper limit on wish-power consumption.

Combined with the introduction of the item's functions, does this mean that as long as you have enough willpower, you can stack it on the attributes without limit?

Just thinking about this, Yu Zhun's heartbeat quickened.

“We still have to look at the conversion ratio.” Yu Zhun murmured in a low voice.

If 1 point of willpower can only be converted into 1 point of attribute, then no matter what attribute is converted, it will definitely be a loss.

The cost-effectiveness is low, and the value of the props will also decrease accordingly.

Thinking of this, I started to try it.

He injected 1 point of willpower into the [Stone of Blessing], selected health as the attribute to be improved, and then nervously stared at the changes in health on his own panel.

Under his gaze, his own health suddenly jumped and increased by 3 points in an instant.

Seeing this scene, Yu Zhun's face suddenly showed a look of surprise.

With his current maximum health, he only needs to consume more than 30 points of willpower to double his health, which will last for seconds.

Yu Zhun then repeated the same trick and injected the willpower into the three attributes of physical attack, physical defense, and magical defense respectively.

And the results are equally gratifying.

Through the [Stone of Blessing], consuming 1 point of wish value can be converted into 1 points of physical attack attribute, or 5000 points of physical defense and magical defense attributes.

There are six basic attributes in total, but mana and magic attack are attributes that Yu Zhun does not need. The basic value of the former is enough for Yu Zhun to use skills calmly, while the latter is always 0, so there is no need to consider it.

After some attempts, Yu Zhun looked at the [Stone of Blessing] with more and more satisfaction.

"Then, it's time to look at the other side halls."

Yu Zhun looked towards another entrance in the side hall and walked forward quickly with an expectant look on his face.

I don’t know what will happen in the next side hall...

"Roar--"

Accompanied by a fierce and inexplicable roar, Yu Zhun, who had just walked out of the passage, was knocked away by a terrifying force before he had time to take a look at the new side hall. He hit the wall on one side of the side hall heavily, leaving a deep human-shaped mark on the wall.

Yu Zhun: “…”

Looking at the sheep-headed monster whose body almost occupied the entire side hall, with thick tentacles like an octopus, and its entire body and tentacles covered with thick hair, Yu Zhun's mouth twitched fiercely.

I miscalculated. I thought there were opportunities hidden in all the side halls.

That’s all…

Yu Zhun narrowed his eyes and a sharp look appeared on his face.

This guy is much stronger than the Lion Eagle Beast we encountered before. After killing him, I should be able to gain more power of will, right?

The gift package of wish power is also an opportunity.

Comforting himself in his heart, Yu Zhun dodged the sheep-headed monster's tentacles that lashed at him like a whip, and landed directly on the top of the monster's head that was almost on the dome of the side hall. Then he squatted down, reached out and grabbed the thick and tough hair on the monster's head.

"Your fur is nice, but it will be mine in the next second."

【A thief never leaves empty-handed】, start!

The blood bar was emptied, and the sheep-headed monster let out a roar. The countless tentacles that were dancing wildly in the air suddenly froze, and then fell down one by one.

The next moment, its huge body turned into ashes and dissipated, leaving only a black airflow as thick as ink.

Seeing that ball of wish power, Yu Zhun couldn't help swallowing.

Just for this ball, there must be two or three thousand wishes, right?

Too fat, this guy is so fat!

Falling back to the ground, looking at the empty side hall after the death of the sheep-headed monster, Yu Zhun shrugged his shoulders and walked towards the next side hall.

Be it a monster or a power of will, I am determined to get it today!

In the Tianxu Holy Realm, in the center of a large city called Yaocheng, stands a tower that reaches into the sky.

On top of the tower, there is another smaller but extremely luxurious sky city, called the City in the Clouds.

It is one of the most powerful cities in the Tianxu Holy Realm.

In the Key City, only those with the highest status have a chance to climb the tower, enter the Cloud City, and become one of it.

At this moment, in the most central hall in Yunzhong City, a most grand banquet was taking place.

Those attending the banquet were all the most powerful and influential people in Yunzhong City, but sitting below the main seat was a young man who was too young.

In the very center of the hall, dozens of stunningly beautiful women were draped in semi-transparent gauze. Their beautiful figures appeared and disappeared as they danced, attracting the eyes of countless guests at the banquet.

When the song was over, the dancers left the hall and the Lord of Yunzhong City, who was sitting in the main seat, looked at the young man with a smile on his face.

"I wonder what instructions Lord Longpan has for coming here?"

"It's not really an instruction." Long Pan smiled warmly, "I just want to spread the message of my god's supreme mercy and stay in Yunzhong City for a while."

The Lord of Yunzhong City's eyes flickered, and his smile deepened as he looked at Long Pan, "Lord Divine Envoy, you can stay as long as you wish."

"I wonder if the Lord Messenger of God has any attendants accompanying him when he comes here?"

"If not, I can arrange a few maids for you. If you like any of the ones I mentioned earlier, you can choose one."

"No need for a maid." Long Pan glanced at the Lord of Yunzhong City with a half-smile, "I have the protection of the gods, so I don't need a servant."

After a slight pause, Long Pan said meaningfully, "City Lord, don't worry too much."

"I am just a passer-by here."

"You have been operating here for a long time, and everything can be restored to its original state after I leave, so you and I can cooperate."

Seeing the other party being so straightforward, the Lord of Yunzhong City looked a little unnatural and silently drank the wine in the glass to show his apology.

"boom--"

A dull shattering sound suddenly rang out, and Long Pan's expression changed slightly, no longer as calm as before.

He quickly took out a broken jade talisman, and after looking at the name on it, his expression changed slightly.

Before entering the [Tianxu Holy Realm], all disciples of the Tianxu Temple left their life cards to each other. When being eliminated, the related life cards would shatter and show the position of the disciple who was eliminated.

In this way, if any disciple is eliminated, other disciples will be able to get the news first and make corresponding responses.

At this moment, this broken jade talisman belongs to a disciple named Cang Mou. Among the disciples who entered the Tianxu Divine Palace, this disciple is the weakest.

But every disciple who is qualified to enter Tianxu Divine Palace is an absolute leader among his peers in Tianxu Divine Palace. Even if he is at the bottom, Cangmou's strength is definitely not weak.

According to Long Pan's understanding of him, normally there shouldn't be any force in the Tianxu Holy Realm that could threaten the other party.

But after only entering the copy for a few days, Cang Mou was eliminated inexplicably.

In Long Pan's opinion, there are only three possibilities for this situation.

The first possibility is that Cang Mou encountered other disciples of Tianxu Divine Palace, conflicts arose between them, and the other party eliminated him.

Thinking of this possibility, a figure instantly appeared in Long Pan’s mind and his eyes became sharper.

If it was really done by a fellow disciple, then the one who acted so domineeringly and eliminated people at will was most likely from Dongtu. The second possibility was that Cangmou encountered a player from the Palace of Gods and Demons.

Although Long Pan also sneered at the Palace of Gods and Demons, those guys in the Palace of Gods and Demons were able to defeat Dong Tu in the [Tianxu Trial]. Their strength was definitely not simple, and it was not impossible for them to kill Cang Mou.

As for the third possibility...

Long Pan glanced at the Lord of Yunzhong City sitting in the main seat with a deep gaze.

In the [Tianxu Holy Realm], there are not only two groups of outsiders, the disciples of Tianxu Divine Palace and the players of Shenmo Palace, but also a third group of outsiders.

They are the relatives of the Lord of Tianxu Divine Palace.

These relatives have no blood relationship with the Lord of Tianxu Temple, but they originally came from the same world.

So, these people have great privileges.

The disciples of Tianxu Divine Palace rack their brains to gain the qualification to enter the [Tianxu Holy Realm], but these people can enter there often.

The strength and talent of these relatives are average, and they cannot be compared with the top disciples of Tianxu Palace who have entered the [Tianxu Holy Realm], but they have the home advantage, and years of operation have brought them a deep foundation.

If they attack in groups, the disciples of Tianxu Divine Palace will also suffer.

Thinking of this, Long Pan's face became solemn and he remained silent, concentrating on sensing the location information left behind when the jade token shattered.

Then, his expression darkened slightly.

According to what he perceived, the place where Cang Mou was eliminated was the Secret Realm of Willpower, not the location on the main map of Tianxu Holy Realm.

In this case, it is difficult to determine the target based on positioning.

Long Pan narrowed his eyes slightly, then raised his brows.

"That's all."
-
"boom!!!"

Accompanied by a dull sound, a terrifying giant beast that was hundreds of meters tall fell to the ground with a loud bang. Its heavy body smashed onto the ground of the side hall, causing countless cracks to appear on the ground in an instant.

The next moment, the giant beast turned into ashes, and only a mass of thick, ink-black air quickly gathered towards Yu Zhun.

This was the ninth side hall he had entered. Perhaps obtaining the [Stone of Blessing] had consumed all his luck. In the following side halls, Yu Zhun encountered all kinds of monsters.

These monsters have different abilities and strengths, but what is the same is that they all contain huge willpower values.

Twisting his neck comfortably, Yu Zhun glanced at his current wish power value.

【17308】

"If I throw this much wish power into the [Stone of Blessing] at once, it will be enough to temporarily increase my physical attack to over 100 million."

Yu Zhun couldn't help but sigh.

Of course, he couldn't do that.

It is not easy to obtain wish power value. If you don't happen to encounter the entrance to a wish power secret realm, it would be extremely difficult to break through five digits, let alone four digits.

Yu Zhun believed that something so difficult to obtain must be important.

The currently known consumption of willpower to use willpower skills and props are likely just the tip of the iceberg of its true functions.

Therefore, if you can avoid consuming your willpower, try not to consume it.

Maybe it will play a bigger role later.

"Next, the next side hall." Yu Zhun's eyes were fixed on the entrance of the side hall, his expression slightly solemn.

The entrance of this passage was different from any other he had passed through before. The inner wall of the passage was scarlet in color.

This change in color gave Yu Zhun an inexplicable sense of danger.

The next side hall is very unusual.

After waiting for a while, until the cooldown of all his skills, items and equipment effects were over, Yu Zhun adjusted his own state to the best, and then stepped into the passage step by step.

Unlike the previous passage, this passage was much longer, and Yu Zhun could clearly perceive that it spiraled downward.

This entire palace is made up of tangled trees, so let’s continue…

There was a hint of solemnity in Yu Zhun's eyes.

Root system?

He had a vague feeling that the key to destroying the secret realm might lie here.

After walking for a quarter of an hour, when Yu Zhun himself couldn't tell how deep he had gone, he finally saw the other end of the passage.

Walking out of the passage, what comes into view is an empty cave. The inner wall of the cave is composed of countless tangled roots. In the center is an irregular crack, and bright red light like lava emerges from the crack.

The light changes regularly between bright and dark, like a heart silently fluctuating. When the light reaches its brightest, astonishing heat bursts out from the cracks and is then absorbed by the roots and transmitted to an unknown place.

Standing in front of the crack, Yu Zhun could clearly feel that this was the core of the entire secret realm. As long as it was destroyed, the secret realm would be completely destroyed.

嗏

Yu Zhun looked around vigilantly.

There was clearly no enemy here, but he could feel the undisguised hostility from every corner of the space.

Although the core of the secret realm is within reach, it is by no means an easy task for Yu Jun to destroy it.

"Let me see what you are." Yu Zhun muttered softly, and his eyes quickly turned firm. He flashed above the crack, holding two daggers tightly in his hands, and stabbed down fiercely.

"Om-"

A low humming sound suddenly rang out, and the next moment the entire cave began to shake violently.

The countless roots that were originally entangled together were now like giant snakes awakening from hibernation, madly wrapping around Yu Zhun.

These roots formed the inner wall of the cave. As they moved, the space of the cave collapsed instantly, as if to crush Yu Zhun.

Everything happened in an instant. Yu Zhun didn't even have time to stab the dagger into the crack in the ground. Countless roots had completely bound him, as if they were going to bury him completely deep underground.

A strong feeling of suffocation made Yu Zhun's expression suddenly change.

No wonder he felt hostility everywhere just now.

The entire dungeon itself is his enemy!
A terrifying force so powerful that Yu Zhun could hardly resist erupted from the roots, dragging Yu Zhun away from the core.

At the same time, countless roots entangled together in front of his eyes, gradually covering the light of the core of the secret realm behind the roots.

If he continues, not only will Yu Zhun be unable to reach the core of the secret realm, but he will also be trapped underground forever by these roots!
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Yu Zhun narrowed his eyes.

"Fortunately, I have prepared a backup plan."

The moment the words fell, the roots around them instantly stiffened.

A wailing sound echoed faintly, and the next moment all the roots turned to ashes, exposing the core of the secret realm to Yu Zhun's sight again.

He lightly hooked his little finger, and an invisible thin line instantly straightened in the void, pulling out a piece of red debris from the crack.

Secret treasure [Thread of Nothingness].

Skill: [The thief never leaves empty-handed].
