Chapter 1927: Absolute Thunder City
Translator: Legge
Su Zimo had already stayed in Gla.s.s City for more than a month.
Although he was not imprisoned, there were more than ten Earth Immortal guards guarding him and he could not move around casually—it was equivalent to being locked up here.
For the past few days, the entire Green Cloud County was not peaceful.
Listening to the discussions of the Earth Immortals, the Green Cloud County Governor, Perfected Immortal Jing Yue, captured traces of the Ice b.u.t.terfly and searched for it the entire way. He fought against it and the latter escaped with serious injuries.
Eventually, this Ice b.u.t.terfly attracted the arrival of Perfected Immortals from a few factions! The fact that it stood off against Perfected Immortal Jing Yue caused a stir in the entire Green Cloud County!
!!
Many Earth Immortals far away in Gla.s.s City could not know the details of such a fight in detail.
They merely heard that Perfected Immortal Jing Yue did not manage to capture the Ice b.u.t.terfly in the end.
Although Su Zimo had only met the Ice b.u.t.terfly once, he did not wish for it to fall into the hands of Perfected Immortal Jing Yue and the others.
For ancient living beings such as the Scarlet Blood Spider and Ice b.u.t.terfly, once they were discovered, they would either be tamed or refined—there was almost no good outcome.
When he heard the news, Su Zimo realized that Perfected Immortal Jing Yue should return soon and he would leave Gla.s.s City as well.
Indeed.
A day later, Perfected Immortal Jing Yue and the City Lord of Gla.s.s City appeared at the same time and took Su Zimo away. They used the teleportation formation in the city to leave this place.
The teleportation formation in Gla.s.s City was clearly much better than the one in Dragon Abyss City. The formation patterns were more complicated and mysterious and the teleportation distance was greatly increased!
During the teleportation process, Su Zimo could barely open his eyes and lost his five senses.
After a long time, Su Zimo regained his senses and arrived at another unfamiliar teleportation formation!
“Where am I?”
Su Zimo asked instinctively.
“This is the center of Green Cloud County, Absolute Thunder City.”
An Earth Immortal guard said in a deep voice.
Everyone left the teleportation hall and arrived in the ancient city.
Su Zimo looked around. The ancient city looked even more majestic and st.u.r.dy than Gla.s.s City. The city walls were pitch-black and tall. The architectural style of the city leaned towards darkness. It was very different from Gla.s.s City and gave off an inexplicable sense of pressure.
“There’s something strange about this city,”
Su Zimo muttered to himself internally.
The most striking thing in the city was the center of the ancient city. A thick and gigantic stone pillar soared into the skies with chains as thick as an arm coiled around it!
Su Zimo narrowed his eyes slightly.
Although he was far away, he could still see that the surface of the stone pillar was etched with many dense runes that emitted a strange power.
“That stone pillar is one with the ancient city. It truly has an extraordinary aura,”
Su Zimo pretended to praise casually.
“Fu…”
When Liu Yu heard that, he could not help but stifle a chuckle. “Black Immortal, you sure are sharp to be able to tell that this stone pillar is extraordinary.”
“I don’t mind telling you that this is the Absolute Thunder Divine Pillar. Hundreds of thousands of years ago, the Immortal King of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom personally forged it with an extraterritorial divine stone. There are many runes and forbidden techniques etched on it and it’s the foundation of Absolute Thunder City!”
“With this Absolute Thunder Divine Pillar, there won’t be any power of thunder in this ancient city! Even lightning tribulations and Heavenly Tribulations won’t descend on this city!”
“Why?”
Su Zimo frowned slightly and asked, “Why can’t thunder descend here?”
“Hmph!”
Liu Yu seemed to have thought of something and harrumphed coldly. Just as he was about to explain, Perfected Immortal Jing Yue, the Green Cloud County Governor, glanced at Su Zimo and said indifferently, “That’s enough, it’s useless even if you know that.”
For some reason, Su Zimo felt that be it the Green Cloud County Governor or Liu Yu, the way they looked at him was special. Apart from the disdain towards the lower worlds, there was also a hint of mockery and ridicule.
“Greetings, County Governor,”
Right then, a group of people arrived not far away. Their leader had a powerful aura and was burly like an iron paG.o.da. He arrived before Perfected Immortal Jing Yue and bowed.
“There’s no need for formalities,”
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue nodded slightly.
The person exchanged glances with Liu Yu and nodded as a form of greeting.
Su Zimo watched coldly from the sidelines—this should be the City Lord of Absolute Thunder City.
“How’s the preparation for the Hunting Meet going?”
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue asked.
The City Lord of Absolute Thunder City said in a deep voice, “Everything is ready and we’re just waiting for Prince Yuan Zuo and you to host it. Many City Lords are here for the hunt as well.”
Hunting Meet?
Prince Yuan Zuo?
The information revealed by their conversation attracted Su Zimo’s attention.
Up till now, he did not know why the Green Cloud County Governor brought him to Absolute Thunder City.
Could the Green Cloud County Governor be referring to the Hunting Meet when he said that he would be given a chance?
Who was Prince Yuan Zuo?
From the tone of the City Lord of Absolute Thunder City, the status of Prince Yuan Zuo seemed to be above the Green Cloud County Governor!
Could this Prince Yuan Zuo be a legendary Immortal King?
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue said, “Prince Yuan Zuo is in seclusion cultivation. We don’t know if he will come this time round.”
Su Zimo pondered for a moment before asking, “May I ask what I’m here for, County Governor?”
The City Lord of Absolute Thunder City looked at Su Zimo and sized him up before looking at Liu Yu questioningly.
“To take part in the Hunting Meet,”
Liu Yu smirked and said with a fake smile.
A mocking look flashed through the City Lord of Absolute Thunder City’s eyes as he smiled as well.
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue looked at Su Zimo with a calm expression. “This Hunting Meet is the chance I’m about to give you. At this moment, the top Black Immortal experts from all over the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom are already gathered here. There are close to a hundred thousand of them and you’re one of them.”
“Ten days later, you will enter a dungeon beneath Absolute Thunder City.”
“Although it’s a dungeon, it has its own dimension within. It’s vast with green mountains, clear waters, flora and all sorts of living beings. This dungeon is called the Ten Extreme h.e.l.l.”
Although Su Zimo was expressionless, he was secretly alarmed.
Although the Green Cloud County Governor made it sound easy, that was a dungeon after all—a dungeon known as the Ten Extreme h.e.l.l!
That name carried a ferocious aura!
The Green Cloud County Governor continued, “All of you and other living beings in the Ten Extreme h.e.l.l can be prey or hunters.”
“There’s only one thing you have to do and that’s to survive. Only true hunters can survive to the end!”
Indeed!
Back when the Green Cloud County Governor saved Su Zimo and said that he wanted to give the latter a chance, Su Zimo already felt that things were not that simple.
From the looks of it, the Ten Extreme h.e.l.l was definitely not a friendly place and was probably filled with endless danger!
Su Zimo asked expressionlessly, “How long do I have to stay inside and how can I leave the Ten Extreme h.e.l.l?”
“There’s no time limit and only a hundred people can leave alive!”
The Green Cloud County Governor said indifferently.
Su Zimo was shocked.
Of the nearly hundred thousand Black Immortals, only a hundred could survive!
