Chapter 44 Forget it, it’s still one day
Day 5.
When Chao Fuyun passed by Ye Xingzhou's house, he did not receive the familiar greeting.
He looked calm and walked away without any concern.
In fact, he was secretly opening his spiritual consciousness first.
He gave himself five days.
If Ye Xingzhou invited him every day for the next five days, he would try his best to overcome his resistance and taste the food.
Especially roasted sweet potatoes.
The sweet scent disturbed his sleep these past few days.
This is the fifth day.
He was all prepared, but Ye Xingzhou was suddenly not in the room.
In that case, let’s do it for the next five days.
If Ye Xingzhou invited him again in the next five days, he would reluctantly eat.
Three days is fine.
never mind.
Another day.
When his spiritual sense detected the clothes and bedding piled in a mess in the house, Chao Fuyun closed his eyes silently.
Ahhhhhhhh!
chaos.
It's too messy.
Why is there such a messy house!
After taking three tranquilizing pills, Chao Fuyun finally regained his sanity.
He was just about to make some hand gestures to restore the messy house, but his hands stopped moving at this moment.
The mess in the house doesn't seem like it was done by one person.
Something happened to Ye Xingzhou.
*
Ye Xingzhou was lucky and did not die from the fall.
When he fell, he used his spiritual power to protect his body and he was wearing many clothes, so he was not injured.
But this fall cleared his mind.
wrong.
His previous guess was completely wrong.
The man in black robe didn't kill him to unlock the mission.
The man in black robe killed him to speed up the progress of the mission.
Before, he only thought about what he saw on the surface. The man in black robe would kill him once before each mission.
Completely ignored the number of times he encountered the black-robed man and the progress of the mission.
Including this time last night, he has encountered the man in black robes four times in total.
Both of his deaths were based on the system's ability to roll back.
When the mission was not completed, the man in black robe also appeared twice.
Once he escaped from the library.
Another time was in the abyss, but the man in black robe did not choose to kill him directly, but pushed him into the abyss.
Going to the Endless Abyss is the second task assigned to him by the system.
Given the black-robed man's ruthless and vigilant nature, if he really wanted to kill him, it would be impossible for him to be spared, and it would be even more impossible for him to be let go and leave trouble behind.
Just like his second death, even though he used talismans and wore armor, he still died.
Then why didn't the man in black choose to kill him before he completed his mission?
When he was killed at that time, the system was in a dormant state and he had no ability to rewind.
Once dead, you are truly dead.
An answer is about to emerge.
The man in black robe killed him twice just to disrupt his vision and hearing, giving him the illusion that he would die at any time during the mission.
With this illusion, Ye Xingzhou had to speed up the progress of the task.
As long as the mission is completed, Ye Xingzhou can go back to the game and have a chance to survive.
And speeding up the progress of the task is exactly what the man in black robe needs.
The man in black robe is deliberately pushing the plot forward.
Moreover, judging from the black-robed man's action of pushing him into the endless abyss, the black-robed man was very clear about his mission.
If it weren't for this time when Ye Xingzhou let the man in black robe reveal his true identity, he would probably still be speeding up the progress of the mission to avoid being killed.
From the current perspective, the man in black robe is most likely an awakener in the game.
So what was the purpose of the man in black robe asking him to speed up the task?
Ye Xingzhou couldn't figure it out for the time being.
He began to pay extra attention to observe the current situation.
The Endless Abyss is as its name suggests, a thousand feet high, as if it was split by a sharp sword. When you look up, you can only see a narrow strip of sky.
Although it was daytime, the light was dim at the bottom of the abyss, and there was only a long river and barren ground.
There is a camellia tree growing on the steep cliff.
There was no living creature around except for the reptiles, rats and ants hiding in the cracks of the rocks.
Ye Xingzhou tried to circulate his spiritual energy.
During this operation, he discovered the problem.
In the endless abyss, there is no spiritual energy and no way to use spiritual energy.
In less than half a cup of tea, the abyss will be plunged into darkness.
Ye Xingzhou picked up a leaf and put it into the river.
By following the direction of the river flow, he should be able to find a way out.
After waiting for a long time, the leaves did not move.
This river is stagnant water.
The bats hiding in the rock walls have begun to move.
Ye Xingzhou had no choice but to take out a spirit stone from his storage bag. With the light of the spirit stone, he could see the river clearly.
This one glance, and I got intensive phobia.
This is not river water.
It was clearly a crack filled with black insects. When the light of the spirit stone shone on it, the insects began to wriggle densely.
The leaf was eaten up in an instant.
If a person falls in, only bones will be left in three seconds.
Ye Xingzhou got goosebumps all over his body.
He immediately moved away from the Insect River and continued to grope forward.
The light from the spirit stone was too bright and would alarm the insects around it, so Ye Xingzhou covered it with a layer of cloth to reduce the light.
The only sounds around him were his footsteps and the occasional hissing of snakes crawling through the cracks in the rock wall.
Ye Xingzhou immediately took out a long sword from his storage bag for self-defense.
He was so focused on avoiding the snake that he stepped on a hard object.
Ye Xingzhou squatted down to take a look, and a skeleton came into view.
The skeleton looked eerie, with the skull being particularly badly damaged, and upon closer inspection it looked like a bone was missing.
It can be seen that the death before birth was extremely tragic.
The place where Ye Xingzhou stepped just now was the leg bone.
Because the bones had been there for a long time, Ye Xingzhou's kick just now directly broke the leg bone into two pieces.
"What a sin!"
Ye Xingzhou put his hands together and bowed, then picked up the bone and put it back in its place, and lit three incense sticks.
"Brother Bones, don't blame me."
Ye Xingzhou continued to move forward.
The Worm River has reached its end.
A hole appeared.
Listening carefully again, there seems to be the sound of flowing water.
Ye Xingzhou did not rush in.
Because he saw a giant brown python circling at the entrance of the cave.
The giant python was as thick as three people, its huge body coiled in a circle, and its flat triangular head was leaning against the entrance of the cave.
The hard scales exude a chill and a sense of oppression from the inside out.
This giant python is actually a fifth-level spiritual beast.
How could there be a fifth-level spirit beast hiding under Lingjian Peak?
Even though the giant python looked very weak due to the lack of spiritual energy, it was not something that Ye Xingzhou, a mere Qi Refining Stage cultivator, could deal with.
Ye Xingzhou swallowed, blocked the light source, and moved back step by step.
Fortunately, the giant python was hibernating and weak, and its alertness was relatively low, so he escaped from the spirit beast area safely.
A large area of my back was soaked.
Ye Xingzhou took a deep breath and continued to explore the other side after he recovered.
The other end becomes narrower and narrower, and it is a dead end.
Ye Xingzhou tried to find the mechanism, but found it nowhere. The only way out was to go around the giant python and enter the cave.
Ye Xingzhou decided to rest for one night.
It is too risky to cross the giant python and enter the cave.
Looking up from the abyss, the sky was already dark.
The abyss is even more terrifyingly dark.
There was a constant rustling sound of snakes crawling on the rocks, and Ye Xingzhou listened carefully to the movement.
These snakes were all rushing towards the same direction.
That direction is where the giant python is.
There was no space around, and apart from the fallen camellia leaves and flowers, there were no branches for Ye Xingzhou to burn to drive away snakes and insects.
Fortunately, he had enough clothes on him, so it didn't matter if he burned a few.
He started a fire with his clothes.
He held a sword in one hand and was always alert.
Even with the fire, Ye Xingzhou killed dozens of poisonous snakes that night.
