Wang Ming rode the six-headed hellhound at breakneck speed, and after more than two hours, he arrived at the entrance to the obsidian mine.

"Huh, there are more guards now." Wang Ming counted them; there were 15 guards outside the cave entrance this time.

"Hehe, it's no use having more people. I hope you'll be smart this time and stop trying to stop me."

"Huh? Who's hiding there? Get out here!" Before Wang Ming could even show himself, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the cave entrance, followed by an arrow shooting straight at him.

Seeing this, Wang Ming dodged it in a flash.

The guards outside the cave also saw Wang Ming and all of them surrounded him with their spears.

"Captain, this is the man. He's the one who killed our brothers last time."

"Captain? No wonder this NPC looks different from the other guards." Wang Ming then used his Insight skill on the captain the guards were talking about.

Luo Wu, captain of the Black Night City Lord's personal guard

Level: 40

Realm: Foundation Establishment Level 10

life:

Attack: 1779

Defense: 1245

Description: Captain of the personal guard of the Lord of Night City, tasked with protecting the obsidian mine.

"A level 40 NPC, judging by its HP, should be on par with a Xuan-rank boss in the wild."

"Over 2 million HP is not bad, but its attack and defense are not enough."

"Is this the kid? He's got guts. He attacked our men last time, and he dares to come back this time. In that case, let him stay."

"Kill!" Luo Wu roared, taking the lead in attacking Wang Ming. The other guards followed suit and rushed towards Wang Ming.

"Sigh, why am I always so impulsive?"

Although Luo Wu was a level 40 bodyguard captain, Wang Ming didn't take that attribute seriously. After dodging Luo Wu's attack, Wang Ming charged towards the group.

......

"President Changfeng, I've lost track of him."

"What? How is that possible? Your Swift Boots can teleport once per minute, and your Mahayana-level Invisibility Technique has a 100% movement speed bonus. How can you still not keep up with him?"

"Yes, Guild Master, the speed at which they seized this lifeline was much faster than I expected. If it weren't for the fact that they needed to stop and clear out the monsters, I would have lost them long ago."

“Just five minutes ago, he came to a plain where there were no monsters, which is why I couldn’t find him.” Juyi Changfeng, after hearing Juyi Yingsha’s words, pondered for a moment before continuing:

"Shadow Killer, based on the coordinates you left behind, the direction of Seize a Chance of Survival has always been westward. Now, follow that direction and search."

"Yes, guild leader." Juyi Yingsha turned off the voice chat and headed west. Ten minutes later, they approached the outer perimeter of the obsidian mine.

"Hmm, there's the sound of fighting here." Juyi Yingsha rushed towards the direction of the fighting sound and, a moment later, actually saw Wang Ming.

"Yes, Chairman, I've found a glimmer of hope."

"Okay, good that you found it. Send me the coordinates quickly."

"President, but he, he..."

"What's wrong with him?"

"He killed many NPCs in Night City."

"What..."

"System notification: You have killed Luo Wu, the captain of the Night City Lord's personal guard, and have gained 50 points in the Daylight City faction."

"It's faction points again. What's the point of these anyway?"

Wang Ming killed all the NPCs, including Luo Wu, and gained more than 60 faction points. However, Wang Ming still did not know what these points were for.

"The commotion just now was too great; we shouldn't stay here any longer." After killing Luo Wu, Wang Ming flashed into the obsidian mine.

"President, we've entered a cave to seize a sliver of hope."

"A cave, could it be... Shadow Assassin, follow them in."

"Yes, guild master." Juyi Yingsha saw Wang Ming enter the cave and followed him in.

"System notification: You have entered the hidden map - Obsidian Mine Level 1. Please proceed with caution."

"President, this cave is a hidden map."

"As expected, Shadow Killer, wait for us at the cave entrance, we'll be there soon."

"Yes, Chairman."

"Undying Battle Spirit, my men have found Wang Ming. Here are the latest coordinates. Have your men arrived yet?"

"They're here."

"Have you managed to contact Juyi Changfeng and Chiyan Fentian?"

"No, this guy is out of the game for some reason, but if our two families work together, it should be enough. And I have some good news to tell you."

"What good news?"

"Hehe, I've discovered a hidden map..."

"What, a hidden map? Okay, let's speed up and get there..."

"Guild Master, I don't understand. If it's a hidden map, why should we tell the Undying Souls? Are we so many of us not enough to deal with him and snatch a lifeline from him?"

"Hmph, what do you know? Although he was the only one who managed to seize this lifeline, he killed a group of people with just one punch during the guild's base battle."

"You single-handedly defeated three of our guilds in a row. Have you already forgotten that so quickly?"

"Do you think someone like that is simple? Would you dare to just rush up and fight him?"

"Well, President, then we should..."

"Hmph, I know what you're going to say. But even though he's powerful, we don't need to be afraid of him."

“We had already suffered heavy losses last time, and the commanders were all attacking the Qilin Pillar at the front, which allowed him to take advantage of the situation.”

"So this time our ruler has to protect the ranged attackers. In that case, we'll need someone to rush up and trap him. Do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand. The guild leader wants the Undying Warriors to be the cannon fodder in front, while we pick up the scraps from behind."

"Haha, not bad. Give the order to slow down the brothers. We'll go in after the Undying Souls have entered the hidden map."

"Yes, Chairman."

...

"System notification: Congratulations on killing the mutated bat. You have gained 2500 experience points, 6 merit points, and an additional 15 merit points."

"System notification: Your cultivation technique, Soul Devouring, has been successfully activated. You have gained 1 point of stamina."

"System notification: Your pet has gained 2500 experience points."

Wang Ming had already cleared the first level of the mine, and his attributes had increased significantly. Now, facing the mutated bats on the first level was much easier for him.

This time, however, Wang Ming's target was the second level of the mine. So after calculating his experience points, Wang Ming only cleared a few mines on the first level before heading straight for the final mine of the Shadow Blood Demon Throat.

Upon arriving at the final mine, Wang Ming saw that the Shadow Blood Demon Throat had respawned, so he launched a dart at the boss...

"President, haven't the people from Juyi Pavilion arrived yet?"

"No, they should have arrived before us, so why haven't they come yet?"

"President, it seems that the people from the Gathering Righteousness Pavilion are not actually trying to kill us to save our lives, but rather to launch a sneak attack on us."

"No, we are still allied with Juyi Pavilion, they can't attack us. Second brother, has the person you sent in reported back?"

"President, not yet."

"Hmm, Guild Master, I've got it. Rebirth is about seizing a chance to fight a level 35 Heavenly Rank boss in a large mine."

"What? He's fighting a boss."

"Damn it, everyone, let's not wait for the Gathering of Righteousness Pavilion, let's go in first and seize a chance to catch them like turtles in a jar."
