106: Chapter 106 Enemies meeting are bound to be extremely hostile.
"Hey, hey, hey! Young man, let's talk this over slowly. Let go of me first!"
"Not letting go! If I let go and you run away, what then?!"
Jiang He was determined not to let go.
He knew the Qiao Brothers were capable and full of secrets; they must have a way to take him with them.
"Fine, fine, fine. Let go, I have a way to get you back," Qiao San said helplessly.
Upon hearing this, Jiang He immediately let go, his eyes lighting up: "Really, Third Brother? Then let's go quickly!"
"Go where? I said I had a way, not that I had an item."
Jiang He was stunned for a moment and hurriedly asked: "Then tell me, what is the way?"
"Communication between nations was originally open, but it's been blocked by some kind of power. To return to Chang'an City, we need at least ten players who have completed reincarnation to go to the Sea of Death together and break the seal."
Jiang He was dumbfounded after hearing this.
Reincarnated players?
And ten of them?
How long would that take?
"You've got to be kidding, Third Brother? There's no other way?"
Qiao San shook his head: "No, this is the only way."
Just as Jiang He was worrying, Qiao San brushed the snow off his body and said: "Young man, I have things to do, so I won't accompany you any further. See you in Chang'an City."
"Huh? Wait... wait!"
"Something else?" Qiao San turned back.
"What do you mean 'see you in Chang'an City'?"
"Uh... I still need to go back to Chang'an City to do business, so of course, I'll see you there."
"You can go back?" Jiang He suddenly realized.
Suddenly, Qiao San straightened his back, his tone carrying a hint of smugness: "That goes without saying."
"Damn! You can go back, but you're not taking me?" Jiang He panicked, lunging forward, ready to grab his arm again, terrified that he might vanish instantly.
"Hey, hey, hey! Young man, don't get agitated! I can go back because my status is special. You really can't!" Qiao San waved his hands hurriedly.
"What do you mean I can't? If you can go back, I can too!" Jiang He refused to let go.
"Uh... alright then."
The next second, Jiang He was completely dumbfounded.
Right before his eyes, Qiao San vanished into thin air with a 'swish'.
Only Qiao San's lingering voice remained in the air: "Young man, some paths you must walk yourself. The future of the Immortal Realm depends on you all."
"Oh, by the way, if you're bored, you can go down and take a look. There's a different world below."
The voice faded completely. Jiang He shouted angrily on the spot:
"Damn! You old slippery fox! You... you f#*king went back on your word! %%#...&!!"
After venting, Jiang He calmed down a little and remembered what Qiao San had said last.
Below?
What below?
He looked down at his feet, seeing only white snow.
He walked slowly to the snow hole where Qiao San had just dived in.
He poked his head in to look.
Hiss—
There really was something extraordinary below!
A deep, gloomy tunnel appeared before his eyes.
Jiang He hesitated about whether to go down.
He really had psychological trauma regarding mysterious tunnels now.
What if he went down and got thrown into another ghost place like the Void Land? Wouldn't he be screwed?
But on second thought, it didn't feel right.
If it were truly dangerous, Qiao San wouldn't have told him to go down, right?
"Damn it, I'm going! I've got nowhere else to go anyway!"
Jiang He gritted his teeth and jumped down.
The walls of the tunnel were exceptionally smooth, sliding like a slide.
Bang!
Jiang He fell heavily to the ground.
"Damn!"
He cursed.
The sliding process was fine, but why was the exit so treacherous?
Below was actually a huge natural cave. The tunnel opening was right above, and he had fallen flat on his face without any preparation.
After complaining a few times, he rubbed his butt and stood up to observe his surroundings.
The walls of the cave were covered in thick ice.
The inside of the ice emitted faint blue light.
This light was like stars; even though no sunlight shone in, it illuminated the entire huge cave in a deep blue.
The cave was very large, like a maze, with several forks appearing every time he walked a distance.
"Is this ever going to end?!"
Jiang He hated making choices the most; having to pick a direction every few steps was just enough.
Just as he was struggling, the sound of fighting faintly drifted from deep within the left tunnel.
Jiang He didn't hesitate and immediately rushed into the left tunnel.
"Didn't they say there was no one here?"
"How come there are people fighting?"
He ran wildly through the cave with his questions.
He quickly passed through the tunnel, and the view suddenly opened up, revealing a very spacious hall.
In the center of the hall, a humanoid BOSS over ten meters tall, wearing a white gauze dress and long blue hair, was in a fierce battle with a player.
Jiang He looked closely, his expression changing drastically: "Damn! It's you?!"
At this shout, the player fighting the BOSS also turned his head in surprise.
The next second, he exclaimed: "Damn! How did you get here?!"
This person was the black-clad assassin who had ambushed Jiang He in Chang'an City and later led him to the Void Land!
It is said that when enemies meet, their eyes flare with red hatred.
Jiang He wasn't just red-eyed; he attacked immediately!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
Several familiar dark red rays shot directly over.
This move startled the assassin, but the next second, he realized Jiang He's target was actually the BOSS.
He sighed with relief.
That day, he had muddled his way from his own country to Chang'an City, and then muddled into Jiang He.
He didn't win, so he wanted to slip away.
He was clearly following the original path back, but somehow ended up in a land of nothingness.
He wandered around in that void for who knows how long.
Just as he was about to collapse and give up, he suddenly saw a white light.
That white light told him it could take him out.
At that time, his mind couldn't hold on anymore.
He couldn't contact friends, nor could he log off.
That white light became his only lifeline.
But just as he was preparing to accept the white light, an old man in a black robe appeared behind him.
In the end, he inexplicably chose to trust the black-robed old man and was teleported to this ghost place.
When he first entered this cave, he also found it strange, like a maze.
Fortunately, he could finally log off!
Over the next month or so, he wandered around this cave almost every day.
Until today, he found this hall.
At first, everything was normal.
But he hadn't taken a few steps when the ground suddenly shook violently!
Immediately after, the huge BOSS, who resembled a human female, stood up!
In front of her, the assassin felt as small as an ant.
If not for his stealth skill, he would have died countless times already!
Seeing Jiang He's attack hit the BOSS.
-9700
The assassin frowned.
This damage looked high, but to this giant BOSS, it was no different from a scratch.
"Stop fighting head-on! This BOSS has too high defense! You retreat first, I can use stealth!" the assassin shouted.
As soon as he finished speaking, he was completely stunned.
He saw the BOSS's health bar dropping crazily!
"Damn? Poisoning spell?"
The assassin was completely confused.
What kind of monster was this guy opposite him?
He could heal, fight in melee, and also knew how to use poison?!
He was dazed when the BOSS suddenly flew into a rage, and a huge arm smashed down directly at him!
"Damn! I'm screwed!" The assassin closed his eyes in despair.
Just at this critical moment, Jiang He had already rushed in front of him like lightning!
A slash glowing with red light hacked down fiercely!
The BOSS's giant arm that was smashing down was actually forcibly knocked away, and then stiffened in place.
"Damn! Crowd control skill?" The assassin's eyes almost popped out.
Immediately after, before he could react, he saw the BOSS's health dropping crazily at a speed visible to the naked eye!
"Damn! Stop just staring! Attack! Hit her!!" Jiang He roared anxiously.
