Chapter 110.1
Xiao Tangqiu was shocked. It turned out that the City of the Abyss and the system came to be after the death of the light side of the Abyss Demon?
Bai Yushan can’t wait to continue and say, “The Book of Light says that after G.o.d died, his body turned into the City of the Abyss, but his heart was stolen by the Abyss Demon and was secretly hidden away in a hidden instance world… It is said that the heart of G.o.d has the ability to resurrect the dead! As long as we can find the heart of G.o.d, we can resurrect the ones we want to resurrect!”
Xiao Tangqiu paused and asked, “Can you show me the book?”
Bai Yushan nodded, “Yes, but the text in it is an ancient demonic script, you might not understand…”
“Why is this page torn away?” Xiao Tangqiu couldn’t help asking Bai Yushan.
Bai Yushan shook her head, “I don’t know. When I got this book, this page was already torn away.”
Xiao Tangqiu frowned and was about to speak up, but Bai Yushan suddenly asked, “You can understand the demonic script?”
“…I seem to be able to understand.” Xiao Tangqiu responded with difficulty. He didn’t know why he could read the demon language. This proficiency in all text seemed to come to be after he was resurrected, and he didn’t even know why he could resurrect, much less anything about this ability. Once Bai Yushan asked, he really didn’t know how to answer.
Fortunately, Bai Yushan did not continue to ask, and said indifferently, “Since you can understand it, you should know that I am not lying to you… So how about it? Do you want to cooperate?”
Xiao Tangqiu flipped through the Book of Light again and nodded, “Alright.”
“In that case, without further ado, let’s set off,” Bai Yushan said impatiently, “The likelihood of entering the instance is only one in ten thousand or less. Only by constantly entering instances can you have a chance to find the hidden instance.”
Xiao Tangqiu turned his head to look at Xue Junli and others, “How about? Should we go now?”
Tang Mianmian immediately took a step forward and hooked an arm over Xiao Tangqiu’s shoulder, “Of course! Let’s go!”
Xue Junli took a deep look at Xiao Tangqiu, “…Itreally says that in the book?”
Xiao Tangqiu nodded, “Yes, it does.”
Xue Junli frowned and contemplated for a while, wavering between doubt and believing for a long moment. What Bai Yushan just said was too unbelievable after all. But in the end he chose to believe, “There’s no point in waiting and wasting time, let’s go.”
The Reincarnation Team members who were still immersed in Shen Yuan’s death regained their spirits. Although resurrecting Shen Yuan was only a faint possibility, the smallest of hopes is more motivating than no hope at all.
Even if they verbally say that they had long become used to the death of their teammates, how could they really have no feelings in regards to Shen Yuan’s death deep in their hearts, not to mention that this was the captain they had always trusted and admired the most.
“Okay! Let’s go!”
Xiao Tangqiu met Tang Mianmian’s eyes and climbed back to the teleportation cabin without hesitation.
With the special items binding them to their teammates, they soon reappeared in a new instance. But to their disappointment, this instance was just a normal ghost instance and not the hidden instance they were looking for.
But they could only bite the bullet and fight through it, finally returning to the City of the Abyss after s.n.a.t.c.hing their lives from the jaws of death.
After returning to the City of the Abyss this time, they didn’t even bother to climb out of the transfer cabin and went on to the next instance.
This time it was a sci-fi instance, but it was still not the hidden instance they were looking for.
In the next six months, they never stopped going through instance after instance, never pausing before entering another one right after clearing the the one before.
After hundreds of instances, even the weakest Xiao Tangqiu had become a warrior, but they still had not found the legendary hidden instance. Xiao Tangqiu had become more and more mature and proficient with his one-handed crossbow and his physical strength and skill also surpa.s.sed his original self several times. He finally successfully integrated into the Reincarnation Team and became a member of the team. But such a Reincarnation Team was still an imperfect team without a captain.
In the past half year, the Reincarnation Team had not re-elected a new captain. Even though all of them knew that the possibility of resurrecting Shen Yuan was slim, they still refused to elect another captain.
Bai Yushan had become more and more visibly weary and worn down of life. Her hair was almost all white now, and her personality had become more and more paranoid. Fortunately, there were not any major disagreements and conflicts between her and the Reincarnation Team. Nevertheless, she was always drifting away from the Reincarnation Team like an outsider.
Whenever Xiao Tangqiu recalled the scene where Shen Yuan died in front of him, he would use Bai Yushan to warn himself not to give birth to inner demons. If he was always immersed in Shen Yuan’s death, unable to extricate himself, sooner or later he would lose to his negative thoughts like Bai Yushan.
As Bai Yushan’s character became more and more erratic, she almost died in the instances several times. Fortunately, Xiao Tangqiu and the others were able to rescue her in time, but she didn’t learn a lesson at all. She relied on her strength to avoid any major issues and continued to do everything on her own.
Xiao Tangqiu was frightened for Bai Yushan, but at the same time, his thoughts were occupied by a bigger doubt. Since that previous instance, he had never seen the Abyss Demon again. Although it was normal for a final boss type character like the King of Demons to be hard to encounter, not coming across the Abyss Demon again after he cleared hundreds of instances felt wrong. But he didn’t know what was off, only able to hold his feeling of wrongness inside while the Abyss Demon remained absent from all instances.
“Congratulations, dear players, for accepting the D-level mission [Eternal Revival Island]. Your mission goal is [Escape from Revival Island]. The time limit is 1 day. After the mission is completed, you will get 500 points. If the mission fails, you will be directly obliterated.
“Finally, dear player, welcome to the Abyss…”
After Xiao Tangqiu opened his eyes, his first reaction was his heartbeat going wild. Revival Island?
This name seemed to be a name mentioned in the Book of Light! Was this the hidden instance they were looking for?
Bai Yushan and he woke up at the same time and they looked at each other. He saw a flash of fanatical excitement in Bai Yushan’s eyes and he immediately knew that he had thought correctly. This was the hidden instance they were looking for!
“Who are you?”
“Where is this place?”
“Is this kidnapping? My family is poor and has no money! Let me go!”
Listening to the familiar noise from their surroundings, Xiao Tangqiu patted his b.u.t.t and got up, soon seeing the other people of the Reincarnation Team. Tang Mianmian also got up with a smile. They looked at each other and nodded at the same time.
They finally found the goal! This was the hidden instance they were looking for!
Eternal Revival Island: the place where the legendary Abyss Demon hid G.o.d of Light’s heart!
Their distinctive reactions and air immediately aroused the suspicion and questioning of the newbies around them, “Who are you? Are you the ones who kidnapped us?”
Xiao Tangqiu looked at Xue Junli, and Xue Junli faintly said, “I will only say this once, and you can choose to believe it or not…”
Just after Xue Junli finished talking, a newbie jumped up, “Are you kidding? Transmigration? What age is this to talk about transmigration? Such an out of date joke?”
Xiao Tangqiu said lightly, “You can choose not to believe it, and then act alone. We don’t want to bring along new people because we have more important things to do. Feel free to do as you like.”
The newbie choked on his words, and before he could say anything, Tang Mianmian interrupted, “Stop wasting time, let’s go look for that thing!”
“That thing? What thing?” Some other newbies couldn’t help but ask curiously.
“They must be pretending to be mysterious to try to fool us! Ignore them!” At first the newbie was very upset, “We must have been kidnapped. This group of people may be some cult terrorists! Let’s find a way to get out of here!”
A stone caused a thousand waves, the newbie’s words immediately caused panic among others. Xiao Tangqiu ignored the restless newbies, turned and looked at the surrounding environment. It was clearly an isolated island surrounded by the sea. The place they woke up on was a gravel beach and in the distance was a dense and untouched forest.
TN: Sorry for the long absence, I’ve been really busy with work projects. I’ll try to push out more chapters to make up for it in the next few weeks >.<
