Am I a god-tier talent in all my professions?

Chapter 146 The Land-Sinking Level Monsters Are Truly Bizarre

This is the first time that one million souls have been sacrificed directly for a dungeon.

Lu Cang had no idea where this passage would lead.

I don't know what kind of monsters will spawn.

The "Submerged Land" level is the upper limit for Tier 5 monsters.

But it may not be the upper limit for 6th-tier monsters.

If monsters really do have a new, higher rank for each rank...

Those Tier 6 monsters should have an even higher level than the Sunken Land level.

Akari's expression was serious; he didn't treat this operation as a casual game.

He nudged Obades in the lower back with his elbow and said, "Brother Shi."

"Go in and take a look first, then come out and explain the situation to us before we go in."

Obades nodded sullenly.

Izparut: "Wait."

"The restrictions inside are probably difficult to break."

As she spoke, Iz drew in the air, imprinting a magic circle on Obades' body.

“Obades, after you go in and observe the situation, you can use the magic I left behind to break open an exit from the dungeon.”

Obades continued to nod.

Kumironi also added something to Obades, but Lu Cang couldn't recognize it.

Once everything was ready, Obardes went inside.

And so everyone waited guarding the portal.

Luluwei gazed into the distance.

Lu Cang looked through Luluwei's senses, passing over the towering mountains and through the falling snow.

In the northwest direction, troops were seen groping their way forward through the heavy snow.

The month of war and fire has passed.

But the war was not over. The army that Luluwei was looking at seemed to be Loren's army... and 500 kilometers away from them, there was a brightly lit camp.

They appear to be preparing a surprise attack on Riga's camp.

The strongest members of Loren's army are level 4 job changers.

The number of high-level job changers is indeed very small, and even fewer are willing to join the military.

Meanwhile, at Ruijia's military camp, a level 5 warrior was stationed there.

If this army had acted without ascertaining the true situation, this level 5 warrior might have dealt them a fatal blow.

A pang of pity flashed through Lu Cang's heart.

Regardless, this battle is bound to be bloody.

While we were adventuring in this Tier 6 dungeon, war was still raging in a faraway place. It seems that everyone in this world has their own things to do.

Lu Cang didn't want to care about the situation that was so far away.

Although he is now a Loren, Lu Cang's attitude towards war is actually the same as Iz's... he just wants to stay out of it.

This is the greedy ambition of humankind. Even if Loren unifies the entire continent of Ruiren, he will continue to expand outwards and wage more wars.

If Loren hadn't done that, there would have been Donglun, Xilun, Ruijia...

Intervening in a war, or even intervening in a country's policies, doesn't really mean you can intervene in anything. If you don't fight others, they will fight you, or they will expand into other territories.

So... it's meaningless.

Obades went inside.

……

The group waited quietly in the vast snowy region.

About five minutes later, Obades emerged from the passage unharmed.

"Many monsters, no danger."

Chi Cheng hoisted the sword onto his shoulder: "Haha! That means we can go and make a big splash!"

After confirming with each other, everyone followed behind Obades.

They entered one after another.

The dim, evil, and jarring sounds surrounded Lu Cang, who couldn't help but frown.

A bizarre and fantastical scene.

This place has long been removed from the Cave of Despair and Wailing, but undeniably, it is still an evil-themed dungeon.

It is filled with a large number of souls, pain, and evil monsters.

call--

Lu Cang saw thick fog rolling in from afar.

Lu Cang's intuition told him that the thick fog wasn't real fog, but some kind of demonic entity...

Being swept up by this thick fog is like being swept into its body.

"Is this also a submerged-level monster?"

However, Lu Cang showed no signs of panic.

Because I am surrounded by reliable teammates.

"God-level Soul Dominator"

Lu Cang raised his hand and pulled.

The thick fog, which carried countless souls, was being pumped out by Lu Cang like water!

"Soul-Devouring Evil Mist".

"Sister Luluwei actually knows its name?"

Lu Cang turned to look at Luluwei, but because of her height, what he saw when he turned his head was her proudly erect breasts.

Only by moving your gaze upwards can you see Luluwei's face.

"of course."

Luluwei's tone carried a hint of pride.

"I'm not some idiot who only knows how to fight."

Luluwei, Chicheng isn't some idiot who only knows how to fight. If you name him, I'll have to prove him right.

Luluwei continued, "This is just a kind of monster that exists in a fictional construct."

"I never expected that I would actually see it today."

"Those biologists are really quite capable."

In other words, did they predict the existence of this creature even though they had never seen it?

This means that the birth of monsters follows a certain pattern.

Subtle words reveal profound details.

Chi Cheng, however, didn't care about all that and swept away the thick evil mist with a single sword strike.

Chi Cheng ran quickly, rushing into the vast fog.

Kumironi said, "All monsters have a core."

"All living things rely on something to drive their lives!"

Therefore, all living things have weaknesses.

"No matter what form this monster takes or what shape it exists in, it ultimately has an indestructible core."

In the thick fog, that crimson light was like a swimming dragon!
Wherever it passed, the fog dissipated!

Countless plumes of mist stretched outwards, all converging and sweeping towards Chi Cheng!
It sensed a threat!
That mass of "evil and filthy condensed mist" was also desperately trying to move within the thick fog.

In fact, this cloud of fog is no different from any other fog.

To the average person, even if two clouds of mist appeared in front of them at the same time, they would not notice any difference.

But Akari was extremely perceptive in realizing it.

The sixth-tier, submerged-level monsters are clearly more alert.

It moved its core swiftly through the vast fog, trying to break free from the terrifying warrior's lock, but Chi Cheng's unwavering pursuit seemed to tell that all of this was in vain!
boom!
A crimson light swept through!
The core that was still trying to escape was shattered in one blow!
"Indeed, a complex monster."

If an ordinary person encounters it and cannot discern its true nature or location, their fate would likely be to be submerged in the vast fog and gradually swallowed up.

And with that core being destroyed.

The thick fog was actually shrinking back towards where Chi Cheng was.

It gradually became solidified.

Chi Cheng took out a bottle, which then sucked in the constantly shrinking fog.

As a collector, he did indeed prepare a lot of tools.

"It's done."

Chi Cheng held up the bottle and shook it.

It seems that it really is quite easy.

My senses radiated outwards, and I found myself in a strange forest. There was no moon in the sky, nor was there any snow falling.

All that could be felt was the lingering chill in the air.

I don't know if this is how the underground city is.

It's still due to the effects of storage and the cold months.

If this place is not affected by storage and cold months, does that mean it is also a place where the power of the moon cannot reach?

The group continued their journey toward the place where the monsters were located.

Swish!
Suddenly, more than one eye opened in the previously pitch-black sky.

Iz and Kumironi raised their hands simultaneously.

Swish!
A verdant curtain of light enveloped everyone.

Meanwhile, Izzy's wand lit up with a magic circle, and it was unclear what kind of magic it unleashed.

All that could be seen was the eye in the sky bursting with high-frequency vibrations.

Buzz buzz buzz——

boom!
Chi Cheng leaped into the air!

however--

The next instant, the eyes closed!
Chi Cheng's slash struck the spot where the eye had just appeared, but it struck nothing more than thin air.

Swish!
Suddenly, his eyes opened again.

This time, however, it was thousands of eyes appearing from different directions.

boom!
A popping sound, like a bean exploding, came from where Chi Cheng had just been standing.

The next moment.

Around it, forty or fifty eyes appeared out of nowhere and exploded one after another.

That's really... incredibly fast.

Even with Lu Cang's current reaction time, he couldn't see the speed at that instant.

however.

So many eyes were blown open, and the remaining unbroken eyes closed again and disappeared into the sky.

"Akagi, it seems there are monsters you can't handle."

Iz laughed smugly.

"Warriors rely solely on brute force and are no match for the finesse of mages."

Iz waved her staff.

In the sky, countless bolts of lightning gathered, creating a vast sea of ​​lightning resembling purple silver molten metal!
"Sixth-tier lightning magic, Cataclysmic Thunder Sea."

boom!
The entire sky was filled with silvery-purple lightning, accompanied by thunderous roars!
boom!
boom--

Every eye in the sky that opened was instantly shattered by lightning!

fine?

What makes it so meticulous?

All I saw was violence, Izzy.

However, this magic seems to contain not only the power of thunder, but also the rules of space.

Lu Cang could tell that this demonic creature was somewhat like the void.

But not quite.

When it encountered danger, it could have easily hidden in its own space, but Iz's magic forced it out.

This monster was dealt with by Iz.

Another sinking-class loot.

Continuing deeper, they saw their own illusory figures...

Is a classic on the way?

Beat yourself up?
but……

Lu Cang looked at the projections floating in mid-air.

But I felt as if I could directly absorb these souls.

Chi Cheng's phantom charged forward!

Carrying surging soul light, it attacks with invincible moves!
Its speed is indeed very fast; I wonder if it's as fast as the real Akari.

All that was known was that Obades had raised his hand at some point.

An invisible barrier solidified before its stone arm!
boom!
The heavy sword struck Obades' barrier, but it remained completely unmoved.

Lu Cang, on the other hand, reached out his hand.

In an instant, the crimson phantom transformed into countless souls that flowed toward Lu Cang.

They were instantly killed by the Soul Master.

In addition, there are phantom images of Luluwei, Lucang, Iz, and even Kumironi and Obades.

Luluwei drew her bow towards the sky, releasing an arrow imbued with countless soul lights...

"It has the appearance but not the substance."

Lu Cang simply raised his hand, and all the countless arrows of souls were drawn into him.

On the other side, Izparut's phantom image coalesced into magic formed from countless souls!

"Simulating magic with the soul?"

Iz's eyes lit up. Although the other party was only imitating, the imitation had its own unique characteristics.

Today's adventure has brought more and more surprises!

Iz exchanged a few blows with her own phantom.

The magical clash was devastating; clearly, the imitated enemy did not possess the original magic.

The defense employed by the imitator, Obades, was also a defense of the soul.

The imitation of Kumiloni is also only a form of healing for the soul.

These pure soul entities... are nothing more than Lu Cang's sex slaves. He can simply retract them with a wave of his hand.

After mastering the ultimate meaning of "Tactical Variations", even the release of the talent "God-level Soul Domination" has become more extensive.

Previously, it could directly absorb souls within a 50-kilometer radius.

Now, however, one can extract the enemy's soul using magic or combat techniques.

The longest distance has also increased to over two hundred kilometers.

After more than half a month of practice, Lu Cang's casting range has improved again.

Lu Cang directly took away the souls of the phantom Kumironi, the phantom Obades, and the phantom Lu Cang in one go.

Luluwei is a bit far away.

Meanwhile, Iz was having a great time playing with her own phantom.

Although the sky was dark, the entire underground city was oppressive and deathly silent.

But the relaxed atmosphere still made Lu Cang wonder... Is this a tourist trip?

No wonder they dared to challenge level 7 dungeons when they were only level 5.

These phantoms did not pose any real threat.

However, these phantoms were taken away.

Before long, another batch was born.

After thinking about it, I realized that these phantoms must have a source.

So Luluwei began her search.

Soon, the source of these phantom images was found to be a mirror.

The mirror continuously reflected Lu Cang, Iz, and Chi Cheng, who were far away...

And in the reflection, a soul image, identical in appearance to everyone else, gradually takes shape.

Having found the source, the natural next step is to address it.

Izzy carried everyone in flight; his speed was simply incomprehensible.

All I could see were thousands of mountains and scenery rushing by.

In the blink of an eye, we were already beyond the mountains.

This mirror is no ordinary mirror either.

Hidden 15,000 kilometers away, it constantly reflects people's images.

A continuous stream of illusory souls mimicking the other party...

If it cannot be found.

I don't know how long it will take.

Although the imitated soul phantoms are not as powerful as the original body, what if there were ten, twenty, or even a hundred of them fighting a war of attrition?
can not imagine.

After finding the mirror, Lu Cang sensed that a soul that did not belong to the mirror resided within it.

The conditions for being taken away by a "God-level Soul Dominator" are met.

He simply picked it up casually and took its soul away.

A simple and unadorned soul that captivates instantly.

The soul was taken without causing any damage, leaving behind the victim's perfectly intact body.

This is probably the hunter's favorite way to kill.

This monster wasn't as large as the previous ones.
The monsters of the Sunken Land class are truly diverse...

Izzy stood in front of the mirror, gently tapping it with her knuckles, while Lu Cang stood to the side, using the techniques of a decryption scholar to feel the structure of her body.

Iz looked at Kumironi and asked, "Is this also considered a miracle of life?"

Kumiloni: "Yes, any living being should be considered a miracle of life."

Such a novel monster that even Kumironi couldn't help but touch and caress it.

Kumiloni explained life as follows: "Through a mirror, the impression of a living being is reflected, and that impression is projected through the soul."

"How amazing..."

Lu Cang also compared this demon with his knowledge of demons.

Previously, I mainly learned by reading books.

Now, adventuring in a Tier 6 dungeon brings a completely different feeling.

"What a pity, this material is still not suitable for making spears." Chi Cheng also patted the armor covering the mirror.

"But just how big is this place?"

Is this still an underground city?

It felt like walking in another world, with mountains, forests, wilderness, and even streams that seemed to flow with souls.

The howling winds of the soul, the pale green and hazy aurora.

It was clearly another strange and unpredictable world.

"Perhaps this is inside the lair."

"I've heard that every dungeon is part of a lair."

Chi Cheng: "I've never heard of that before."

"Brother, you've become so knowledgeable."

Lu Cang's tone was slightly smug, but he still humbly said, "Haha, Brother Chicheng, I just saw it by chance."

"However, I have heard of it."

"Every nest has its owner."

"Haha, Little Lu Cang, do you think we might encounter the so-called Lord of the Nest?"

Chi Cheng placed his hand on Lu Cang's shoulder.

An awkward smile appeared on Lu Cang's face.

No... it's probably better not to encounter them. They're legendary beings, almost like gods.

I don't want to encounter something like that.

Forget about the God of War; at least he seems friendly.

The master of this monster's lair could not possibly be a good person.

"It's probably best... to avoid running into them."

Akari: "I was just kidding!"

"The appearance of a Nest Master in a Tier 6 dungeon is just too far-fetched."

Akari, just shut up.

I didn't say I wouldn't because I didn't want to make a promise I couldn't keep! Stop talking!

But thinking about it...

A level 6 dungeon will not become a level 7 dungeon due to sacrifice.

If such an ironclad rule existed, there would probably be no need to actually encounter the master of the lair.

The Lord of the Nest is like a final boss.

You should only encounter them in the deepest part of the nest.

The mirror, which was about three stories high, was put back into the space. For a monster of the Sunken Land level, this size was considered very small.

After that, the group continued their exploration.

The monster population here is extremely high, yet no low-level monsters are born.

Instead, every monster they encounter is of the Sunken Realm level.

Unlike before, when encountering a nation-destroying monster would still be accompanied by a group of king-level and lord-level monsters.

There are even Tier 1 and Tier 2 grunts.

Now, however, not a single one can be seen.

Could it be that sinking-level monsters naturally reject other weaker monsters?
Continuing their exploration, they encountered a talking monster.

This is rare. It's the third talking monster I've seen, besides Bloodborne and Zerg.

A demon holding a withered staff, its face like melting wax, constantly dripping black substance, its body hunched over like an old man.

"Humanity?"

Chi Cheng: "Holy crap...it seems to be able to talk."

“It’s really rare.”

"Hehehe...hehehe!"

"Humans have appeared in this place! Great source of evil, does this mean you will lead us away from this hellish place?!"

"Jie! Jie! Jie!"

Dark green and black evil spirits howled around its body.

Looking at its dark, filthy soul and its incredibly ugly appearance.

Lu Cang's pupils contracted, filled with shock.

Actually...

Is it really possible for someone to laugh like that?

While Lu Cang was shocked, he also reached out his hand.

"God-level Soul Dominator"

Whoosh!
"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

"Do not!!"

"What! You! Did! Do! It!?"

A shrill scream rang out, and its pitch-black soul was directly extracted from its face, which was covered by a waxy, filthy substance.

They struggled desperately, but to no avail.

Soul Mastery, it's really useful.

Why don't you all stay in your original bodies?
However, it seems that all evil spirits are like this by nature...

This soul was completely under Lu Cang's control, yet it was still struggling desperately to break free from Lu Cang's control.

"What...what did you do?!"

"Why! Why can you control my soul!"

"Damn it!"

Chi Cheng and the others gathered around, looking at the soul in Lu Cang's palm.

Akari exclaimed in disbelief, "Wow..."

"So you can talk like that? But you're holding back on this too?"

"What is it murmuring?"

The language he spoke was ancient Ansomi.

If Lu Cang hadn't specifically studied this language, he really wouldn't have understood what it was saying.

The language of Guansu is a language favored by the Church of Death, and this is a dungeon dominated by evil and souls, where most of the monsters are in forms related to souls.

It's hard not to associate this language with the soul.

Lu Cang replied modestly, "It was just a lucky escape. It was speaking the ancient Ansu language, an ancient language."

"Humanity!"

"Shh-"

Lu Cang made a shushing gesture towards the group of souls.

"I ask you, why can you talk?"

"Why? Because it's a talent I was born with!"

The monster's tone seemed to carry an immense sense of superiority, as if it knew its talent far surpassed that of most monsters in the world.

It seems we can obtain a lot of information from this soul that we wouldn't normally know.

Iz, Kumironi, Lu Cang, Luluwei, and the others exchanged glances.

It seems that a consensus has already been reached.

Chi Cheng, however, scratched his head and went to examine the monster's corpse, from head to toe, where its soul had been extracted.

Lu Cang asked the soul, "Where is this place?"

"Human! Why should I answer your question!"

"Human! You should die!"

"Human! Let me go!"

Lu Cang remained silent for a while...

He said, "If you answer my questions, I'll let you go, and then I'll die."

"Are you telling the truth?"

Lu Cang nodded earnestly and sincerely: "Really."

"Haha, go ahead and ask! After you've asked, just go and die!"

Ok……

This level of intelligence is probably similar to the Border Collie I raised in my previous life?

No, it seems even weaker.

Lu Cang asked, "What else could this be?"

"This is our home!"

Okay, now we need to consider what methods to use to communicate with people with intellectual disabilities.

"Besides you, how many other monsters here are as strong as you?"

"This place is so big, I didn't know."

How big is this place?

"How would I know!"

Do you remember how you were born?

"Haha, I remember that. I remember I was born a month ago and killed them all as my food."

Have you ever encountered any other talking monsters like yourself?

"No, I am the only one. It is obvious that I am a unique and supreme being."

Why do you think we should be killed?

"The moment I saw you, that's what I thought of."

It's instinct...

"Hehe, it's good that you met me. If you had gone any deeper and encountered it, you would have known what it means to wish you were dead."

"Human, haven't you finished asking your questions?"

"I've answered enough. Let me go back, and then you can die in peace."
