Having made up his mind, Ye Bai looked at the so-called [Void Fragment - Fire].
This thing was placed in the checkpoint by the sea god through certain means.
Ye Bai noticed the anomaly of the fire element as soon as he entered the maze.
[Analysis of methods for collecting Void Fragments (Fire Element)...]
Less than half a minute later, the Eye of Insight provided the answer.
Ye Bai followed the instructions step by step with utmost caution.
According to Poseidon's explanation, this thing is neither native to Earth nor originated from the Eternal Tower.
Rather, it was left behind by the Void Demons who attempted to invade the Eternal Tower back then.
Under Ye Bai's manipulation, the water elements coalesced into a lotus flower, which then fell upside down.
The water lily was instantly evaporated upon contact with the void fragments, and countless wisps of steam rushed towards it.
Ye Bai wasn't in a hurry. He once again mobilized the water element to condense it into ice, while more water lilies fell.
Logically speaking, if Ye Bai summoned the Asura Sea, the efficiency of collecting [Void Fragments] could be increased by at least 100%.
However, the origin of the [Void Fragment] is too mysterious, and Ye Bai doesn't know if this thing is poisonous.
If Ye Bai were to rashly summon the Asura Sea and fall victim to its attack, the consequences would outweigh any gains.
The sea god, silently watching this place, couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
If Shura directly summons the Eternal Sea, the Void Fragment will forcibly merge with the Eternal Sea.
By then, even if Shura wanted to back out, he wouldn't have the chance!
Unfortunately,
This Asura is clearly incredibly powerful, yet he is excessively cautious.
Even when the projection of the Sea God descended, Ye Bai forced the other party to suppress their strength to level 100, a ninth-tier warrior.
They won't give us a single chance!
Because the power suppression was too weak, the several methods that Poseidon had initially prepared could not be used.
The only option was the most frustrating one: after making a deal with Shura, he would give away the Void Fragment he had treasured for many years as a gift!
"It's done!"
The eighty-first water lily fell, and all the previous mist, like a glittering galaxy, transformed into a ribbon that wrapped around it. In the very center of the water lily, a flame burned quietly.
This is the void fragment that Ye Bai captured after spending a lot of time and effort!
Ye Bai neither stored the void fragments in his storage space nor put them into his personal space.
Instinct told him that this thing was a bit strange.
The best way is to hold it like this, keep your distance, and remain vigilant.
Then, a strange scene unfolded in the maze:
Cerberus, with a water lily atop its head, walked through the passage, the lotus's core slowly burning, its terrifying power poised to be unleashed.
Ye Bai supervised from the sidelines, while simultaneously making empty promises.
"Hey, mistress, work hard, I'll buy you dog food later."
Ye Bai's promise has evolved from barbecue and chicken legs to genuine dog food.
The treatment of Cerberus was elevated to a whole new level.
More work, more pay; distribution according to work.
With the matter of the Void Fragments settled, the traces of the Sea God also disappeared.
As Ye Bai continued forward, he summoned the Black Tiger.
"roar--"
A nimble black cat left afterimages in the passageway; it was quite fierce.
Looking at Black Tiger's back, Ye Bai felt that among the group of one man, one dog, and one cat, this cat was out of place with the others.
Your bravery makes us look cowardly!
brush--
Ye Bai navigated through the maze and arrived at the fork in the road once again.
Current exploration progress: 45%
Strangely, Ye Bai had no choice this time!
At the fork in the road, the left path was open, but the right path was blocked by a huge rock.
Ye Bai had previously read through a strategy guide that mentioned this situation.
Generally, you can simply choose to move forward on the left; it won't affect your ability to complete the level.
The boulder on the right is part of the maze scene and is indestructible.
This round boulder can be moved.
But that's where it ends.
The passageway containing the round boulder is an upward slope.
Pushing the boulder forward continuously is not only extremely energy-consuming, but also involves dealing with a constant stream of traps and monsters along the way.
The further they went, the more difficult it became to move the boulder.
But if you let go, all your previous efforts will be wasted!
No matter how much effort is put in, it all comes to naught.
Most importantly, no one knows exactly how far this passage is.
When there is no hope, it is easiest to wear down a person's fighting spirit.
Under Ye Bai's gaze, the Eye of Insight provided the answer:
Push the boulder infinitely far to complete the level.
hiss--
This hint is as good as saying nothing at all.
Pushing the stone, there is no end to it.
"This story sounds a lot like the punishment of Sisyphus."
Based on Ye Bai's experience in clearing levels, you should never miss an opportunity when you encounter something strange like this!
Perhaps other routes can also achieve 100% exploration completion.
but!
Those paths will be missing something very important—the dark history of the strongest... I mean, the footprints left by the eldest brother and his comrades!
Ye Bai finally understood.
Eldest brother, second brother, and third brother—these three brothers are incredibly reckless, always rushing into anything that seems strange!
In fact, some of the strange things might have been caused by these three brothers.
As the strongest seed, Ye Bai, adhering to the principle of 'since we're already here,' decided to follow his brothers and be reckless this time.
"roar--"
The black cat tried, but couldn't move the boulder.
Only Ye Bai can move this stone.
With hands placed on the stone and a little force applied, the stone began to roll forward.
The cat, dog, and human duo embarked on their uphill journey.
As he moved forward, Ye Bai stared at the surface of the stone.
