Chapter 329 Perfect Completion [Death Burial Pit]

"It seems that this problem is not unsolvable."

Yu Zhun gripped his dagger tightly again, his gaze sweeping over the rapidly approaching group of powerful figures. "What 'Kingdom of Death'..."

"Just kill them, that's all."

"Hahaha, you're right!" Lu Wen snapped out of his surprise and laughed. "Just kill them all."

"Yu Zhun, your passive ability is truly freakish!"

"But I like it!" With that, Lu Wen brandished his twin swords and charged at the figures that surrounded him.

Knowing that his "ignorance and fearlessness" were insufficient to kill them, Lu Wen chose to engage in prolonged combat and weaken them as much as possible, eventually delivering the broken-limbed men to Yu Zhun for the final kill.

Helmod and Udir quickly recovered and took action in their own ways to ensure that every opponent who came before Yu Zhun no longer possessed full fighting power.

Yu Zhu closely followed Yu Zhun, responsible for providing him with assistance.

Under this highly efficient killing mode, in just one minute, more than a hundred powerful individuals had died by Yu Zhun's dagger.

The death of each powerful figure releases a massive amount of deathly aura, which grows increasingly intense and attracts more and more people.

The more you kill, the more come.

The more that come, the more we kill.

A bizarre cycle began. Yu Zhun and his four companions, positioned in the center of a vast group of opponents, were like precision-guided killing machines, showing no signs of fatigue with the help of Yu Zhu.

As time passed, Yu Zhun could no longer remember how many people he had killed. He only remembered that the sky in the Kingdom of Death was getting darker and darker, and the entire space was almost becoming like the other areas of the [Death Burial Pit], completely filled with death and a cold atmosphere.

As if finally unable to remain a bystander, a low shout suddenly rang out.

"stop!"

As soon as this voice appeared, the powerful figures who had been frantically attacking Yu Zhun and his group retreated like a receding tide almost simultaneously.

A colossal figure, towering like a mountain, approached from the central hall of the Kingdom of Death. With each step he took, the aura of death around him rapidly swept over him, absorbing it and making his body grow larger and his aura stronger.

When he reached Yu Zhun and the others, his body had become so large that it resembled a giant mountain, and his aura was so terrifying that it made the five of them change color.

The final boss of the [Death Burial Pit] instance is Pansalis, the ruler of the Death Kingdom.

However, the other party stepped out of the hall where they should have been and came to them in a more powerful and terrifying manner.

"Hey, hey, hey..." Lu Wen's lips twitched involuntarily, "Are we sure we want to take out the Heart of Death?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Zhun and the others fell silent.

Only by giving the Heart of Death to the Lord of Death can the Lord reveal his hidden form, which is more powerful. However, killing him is the only way to achieve a perfect victory.

In other words, even though the Lord of Death is already ridiculously powerful, they still need to give the Heart of Death to the other party to make him even stronger.

"Although it sounds like we're courting death, it seems like this is the only thing we can do." Yu Zhun shook his head helplessly, took out the Heart of Death from his arms, and tossed it to the other person.

"Om-"

Pansalis grabbed the Heart of Death, and as the Heart of Death trembled, Pansalis's aura became increasingly terrifying.

Finally, the Heart of Death shattered into countless white specks of light, which coalesced into a suit of armor atop Pansalis's mountain-like body.

Lines of text then appeared before Yu Zhun and the others.

【Death King Pansalis (Lv75)】

【property:…】

"Hey, hey, hey, this is a bit funny, isn't it?" Yu Zhu's lips twitched slightly. "Even the Pelopas from before wasn't this strong!"

"You're telling me he's level 75?!"

"This level is too fake." Lu Wen nodded in agreement. "With this strength, I would believe it if you said he was a third-level cultivator."

"Stop talking nonsense and get to work."

Yu Zhun shook his head helplessly, leaped onto Pansalis's instep, and then stabbed him hard with his dagger.

Having just killed so many powerful figures, Yu Zhun himself didn't even know how many layers of [Greed Power] he had accumulated.

The opponent before him was indeed terrifyingly strong, but with his attributes increased many times over, he was still slightly stronger than his opponent.

A scream suddenly rang out, and Lu Wen clicked his tongue, "Poke someone's instep, Yu Zhun's job is not fair."

“Indeed, it looks painful. Look, even Pansalis is screaming.” Helmod, unusually, joined in the banter.

After all, with Yu Zhun's intervention, Pansalis's health bar was instantly depleted. They didn't need to do anything; lines of dungeon settlement text appeared before Yu Zhun and his group of five.

[Congratulations on your incredible victory in the Death Pit! You defeated the Boss, Lord Pansalis (Lv75), and gained 2000 million experience points!]

[When the dungeon boss, King Pansalis, was defeated, he left you a surprise: Legendary Shard x200]

Congratulations on perfectly clearing the [Death Burial Pit] dungeon! You have received the following rewards: 100 Personal God and Demon Medals and 100 World God and Demon Medals.

Congratulations...

[The power of greed is accumulating and taking effect; this raid will grant an additional 3196.5% boost upon completion.]

[Quadruple EXP Card active, grants 4 EXP for this level]

Congratulations on reaching level 62!

Congratulations on reaching level 63!

Congratulations on reaching level 64!

Before the other four could even finish looking at their own results screen, they saw Yu Zhun's upgrade light flash three times in a row.

For a moment, the air seemed to freeze.

Lu Wen, Yu Zhu, Helmod, and Udir all looked at Yu Zhun with strange expressions.

"...What's wrong?" Yu Zhun scratched his head.

"What's wrong?" Lu Wen was getting frantic. "This is the second stage of the job advancement, damn it!"

"During the second job advancement phase, you leveled up three times in a single dungeon?"

"I only got this treatment when I was level 20!"

"Ah..." Yu Zhun smiled awkwardly, "It might be because of the quadruple experience card?"

"Stop pretending you don't know!" Yu Zhu couldn't help but roll his eyes. "We all have quadruple experience cards."

"Even with the quadruple experience card, the 80 million experience points gained from this campaign are far from enough to level up!"

“Exactly.” Helmod nodded in agreement. “Ultimately, it’s the improvement brought about by your second talent.”

At this point, a look of seriousness appeared in Helmod's eyes.

Although this is just the beginning, and Yu Zhun's current level is still high enough to continue teaming up with them to conquer dungeons, he has a glimpse of the future.

A future in which they are left far behind by Yu Zhun.

"What if you level up to Lv70 or higher, while we're still stuck at Lv61?" Yu Zhu voiced Helmod's concern.

"So that's what you're worried about." Yu Zhun smiled helplessly. "Actually, there's a way to solve this problem."

"Although entering the [Death Burial Pit] this time was very dangerous, it also proved one thing."

"That's a normal Lv70 dungeon, which is too easy for us and doesn't pose any challenge." The Death Pit is a dungeon that existed from the beginning, which is why it underwent such a significant adjustment based on the strength of Yu Zhun and the others.

Those copies that are transformed from the world could not be like that.

Now, entering those instances is as easy as cutting melons and vegetables for Yu Zhun and his group.

“In that case, why don’t we just go straight to a higher-level dungeon?” Yu Zhun chuckled. “We might as well try a Lv80 dungeon, or even a Lv90 dungeon.”

"My level might increase faster than yours, but even if I do, I'll eventually stop at Lv90. After all, I still have absolutely no clue about the third job advancement."

Zhu Xiuming had told him that the prerequisite for the third transformation was finding one's own path.

He had not yet found the so-called path, and this was destined to be a long process.

Therefore, the speed of leveling up in the second job advancement stage is not important.

"That makes some sense now," Lu Wen said, stroking his chin. "But the way you're leveling up so fast still annoys me!"

"Then you'll get used to it slowly~" Yu Zhun shrugged.

As the group chatted and laughed, they entered the God and Demon Shop. Seeing that they completely ignored him and continued to chat and laugh, the corner of the mouth of the third-level powerhouse salesman twitched violently beneath his mask.

no…

Although being a sales clerk is the least prestigious job in the God and Demon Palace, even a third-tier powerhouse has to haggle with lowly minions every day and occasionally even have to put on a smiling face.

But it shouldn't have come to that, right?

He! A third-tier powerhouse!
They were ignored by a bunch of second-tier players!

"Ah, sorry." Yu Zhun finally noticed the saleswoman in the corner staring at them with a resentful look.

Although each salesperson looked similar, the aura naturally exuded by a third-stage powerhouse was vastly different. Yu Zhun could tell at a glance that this was a completely new salesperson.

"What do you call it?"

"God 2." The saleswoman's tone still carried a hint of resentment.

Upon hearing His address, the expressions of Yu Zhun and the other four changed simultaneously.

"God...2?" Yu Zhun looked at God 2 thoughtfully. "You're in the God and Demon Palace...you're not some deputy palace master, are you?"

"Huh?" Shen 2 was almost amused by Yu Zhun. "Me? Vice Palace Master?"

“Little brother, you’re really joking.” He shook his head speechlessly. “I’m just an ordinary sales clerk.”

"At most, I've just been a sales clerk for a long time."

"How long?" Yu Zhu couldn't help but ask.

"About a hundred thousand years ago, I can't quite remember," Shen2 said casually.

Yu Zhun gave Helmod an inquiring look, and the latter silently gave him an affirming look.

The first ten servers were created around the same time. If we were to calculate it, the connection between the Divine Revelation World and the various servers would have occurred over 100,000 years ago.

The [Death Burial Pit] instance has existed since the birth of the Divine Revelation World, and the shopkeepers within it have naturally existed for a long time.

"Take a look at what you want to buy." God2 pointed to the shelf next to him. "Judging from your appearance, this is probably your first time playing after the second job advancement. There is still a big difference between the God and Demon Shop after the first job advancement."

“Let’s go take a look.” Yu Zhu and the others exchanged glances and quickly walked toward the shelves.

But Yu Zhun didn't leave. Instead, he stared at Shen2 with a smile and said, "I heard that the God and Demon Shop has a lot of things to sell. Can I use my God and Demon Medals to exchange for some time to chat with you?"

"Chat with me?" Shen 2 looked at Yu Zhun with a strange expression. "That won't be cheap."

"And there are some things I won't reveal."

“I understand.” Yu Zhun nodded. “A third-level expert who can live for hundreds of thousands of years must be very cautious.”

"That doesn't sound like a nice thing to say," God2 muttered.

"Senior, you misunderstood. I was just praising you." Yu Zhun revealed a kind smile. "I've always been curious about how the code names for the reception staff in the God and Demon Shop were decided. Would you mind telling me?"

"It's not a big deal." God2 casually shook his head. "It's basically based on the order in which the instances were created, but there are occasional special cases. As for gods and demons, it depends on the path chosen by the reception staff."

“For example, I am a god, so I am God 2.” At this point, God 2 gave Yu Zhun a slightly strange look.

"You've got a strong demonic aura about you, kid."

"He's obviously no good."

Yu Zhun: "..."

"You misunderstand, senior." He chuckled, then asked, "So, the [Death Burial Pit] is the second instance in the Divine Revelation World? What was the first instance?"

"The first one?" Shen2 glanced at Yu Zhun. "The Divine Revelation World itself is the first one."

"So, among the 4A dungeons in the Divine Revelation world, [Death Burial Pit] is the oldest." At this point, God2 puffed out his chest, "Among all the salespeople, I'm the most senior."

"I see." Yu Zhun nodded with a smile.

The World of Divine Revelation is the first one, no wonder the master of the Divine Demon Palace always refers to himself as God 1.

It seems that God 2 and God 1 are only separated by one serial number, but God 2 is indeed just an ordinary third-level powerhouse.

but…

It's not like there's no room for further exploration.

"With such seniority, you were already a sales clerk when the Divine Revelation World appeared." Yu Zhun's smile held a deeper meaning.

"Then you must not be a player, right?"

"Could you tell me what the Palace of Gods and Demons was like before the world of divine revelation appeared?"

"You're quite shrewd, kid." Shen 2 gave Yu Zhun a deep look. "I can't answer that question."

"If you have the chance to advance to the third level, go and find out for yourself."

“Okay.” Yu Zhun nodded with a smile, then continued, “I’m also a little curious about how much sales clerks earn.”

"You guys have been stationed in the God and Demon Shop serving players for a long time, so your income must be pretty good."

"So-so." Shen2 glanced at Yu Zhun. "The base salary is about the same as being a guardian of a world, one myth fragment per year."

"The extra income comes from transaction dividends."

"I see." Yu Zhun nodded with a smile, a strange look appearing in his eyes as he looked at Shen 2.

One fragment a year; just considering the base salary, this guy has earned no less than 100,000 mythical fragments.

Based on this calculation, the weakest of the guys in front of us is at least a sixth-stage deity, and there's a high probability that he's a god-lord level being at the seventh-stage deity.

Why would such a being stay obediently in the God and Demon Shop and not leave, instead working diligently as a laborer?

Thinking of this, Yu Zhun immediately continued, "I'm also a little curious..."

"Alright, you've got a lot of questions to ask." Shen2 waved his hand, turned and left. "I'm tired of talking, that's enough."

"Oh, right." God2 paused slightly. "Remember, the chat fee is 2000 God and Demon Medals."

Yu Zhun stared blankly at the departing figure, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes. "Senior, your fees are a bit outrageous!"
