Chapter 70 Incense Burner Purifies, Malicious Instance (Please Read Further)

[Network Tip: The "Extreme" difficulty level of the "Sea Spirit Altar in the Demon Village" dungeon has been unlocked. Please see the invitation letter for details.]

Dungeon Name: Sea Spirit Altar in the Demon Village (Number of Challenges Remaining Today: 1)

Grade: 3-5
Difficulty: Extremely difficult

Clearance Rewards: Comprehensive Network Disaster Coins*300, General Experience*1800, Gray Quality Drops, White Quality Drops (High Probability), Blue Quality Drops (Medium Probability), General Skill Book (Low Probability), Knowledge Fragment (Low Probability)

Next, Lin Bo will challenge the extremely difficult level of the Sea Spirit Altar. The reward for passing the level will be doubled, which means the difficulty will also be doubled.

This difficulty unlocks a new battle location, a secret cave beneath the temple. This cave has a winding terrain, a dim environment, and is covered with sticky, poisonous mud. It will be difficult to walk into it, and inhaling the miasma emitted by the mud will also cause poisoning.

This kind of poison pool terrain is also part of the maliciousness of the dungeon.

The small poison-purifying incense burner was used in this poisonous swamp. Lin Bo had originally planned to wear a gas mask, but the gas mask greatly interfered with his vision and greatly affected his combat effectiveness.

Or maybe he's prepared to spend a little money and buy some anti-gas nose plugs from [Agilent], which are a convenient and easy-to-use gas filtering device.

Now that we have the small detoxifying incense burner, there is an additional optional way to detoxify.

However, he had no religious incense on hand.

There are some in the church in Shita Town, but the stock is limited. The old priest is very stingy when using them. He often uses them in a hurry with a pair of scissors to cut off the burning incense heads as soon as the gathering ends on Monday, so that the remaining ones can be used.

Lin Bo had no intention of embezzling the order's meager assets, as he happened to know some clergy friends.

[Lighthouse Guest]: Do you have any religious incense? I'd like to buy some.

[Barrier]: Do you need ordinary incense, or incense with divine power? If you need ordinary incense, I'll give you some as they're so cheap they're not worth spending Disaster Coins on. If you need incense with divine power, I'll charge a fee, so don't worry.

[Lighthouse Guest]: Any detoxifying incense burner will do.

[Barrier]: I understand.

[Network Tip: Friend [Barrier] initiates a transaction request with you]

The Holy Warrior kept his word and sent Lin Bo three pounds of incense powder. He refused to accept even the symbolic price of one disaster coin.

Unscrew the small incense burner, fill a little incense powder into the combustion chamber, screw on the lid, and as a faint golden flame flickers in the hollow incense burner, the warm aroma of incense wafts out, with a hint of sweetness from fruit bananas and the coolness of the forest.

According to [Barrier], these incenses were made by the members of the church he founded, using some common spices. Excluding labor costs, the cost is not high.

Lin Bo checked the player information.

Health: Excellent (well-nourished↑, physically and mentally active↑↑, toxin-free↑)

Both the gain and loss status will be marked. Since the poison-purifying incense burner is effective, you can continue the game with peace of mind.

[Selected instance: Sea Spirit Altar in the Demon Summoning Village]

[Current Difficulty: Extremely Difficult]

The time and space of the dungeon in this difficulty level has completely fallen into night. After the sun's light disappears, even the stars and the moon in the sky are obscured by the encroaching clouds. Under the sky and above the earth, it seems like pure void, and the shapes of all things are dissolved in the darkness.

Only in the nearby Demon-summoning Village were there still some bean-sized flames, like the small lights on the heads of deep-sea anglerfish, luring travelers from afar to step in.

A biting cold wind blew in from the land, passing through the houses in the village, carrying with it the smell of seaweed and rotting fish and shrimp.

It was so dark that it was extremely difficult to spot a fast-moving iron ball with the naked eye in this environment. Once it left the sensing range, the incantation would be interrupted, and the spell would cease. However, it was enough to heat up the iron ball with the Blazing Control Technique, making it clear and visible in the thermal imaging field of view.

Lin Bo rarely uses the Fierce Control Technique and the Flow Control Technique at the same time because of the difference in the beliefs of the controls.

The fierce control technique requires a sense of openness and freedom, just like the sun and the moon releasing their brilliance, while the flowing control technique requires a sense of spiritual urgency, like the thunder of Lie Que running through the summer clouds.

This kind of loose and tight belief and the completely opposite requirements made it difficult for the two control techniques to run in parallel.

However, the brief moment he had previously entered that unintentional realm of control had allowed Lin Bo to see the possibility of their coexistence. This was probably the right path for him to take.

The green parrot chirped loudly, once again attracting all the soldiers in the village. The same trick worked every time.

Advance all the way to the temple and clear out the enemies in the building again.

In the extremely difficult level, the road leading to the underground cave has been opened. The entrance is inside the mermaid statue. The statue is in a damaged state, and a chilling wind blows out of the hollow stone statue.

Looking over, one can see that there is a narrow well opening at the feet of the statue, with a long rope ladder placed on the edge of the well, extending straight to the deep and endless darkness at the bottom.

This feeling of being caught in a trap was so strong that Lin Bo couldn't help but feel his back tighten. He wanted to scratch it, but was blocked by the iron body on his body.

Having just experienced a low point in combat, Lin Bo was not in a hurry to advance the map. Instead, he found a clean corner in the temple to sit cross-legged and meditate to recover his mana.

Staying in a dungeon for too long will result in a mandatory death. However, the higher the level and difficulty of the dungeon, the longer the time allowed by the network, or in other words, the longer the cycle of the time and space slice.

After reaching a certain level, a real plane copy will appear that allows players to stay permanently, which is no different from traveling through the world.

This type of real copy plane often gathers a large number of players, and the headquarters and branches of large trading platforms are located there.

After long-term cultivation and layout by players of the comprehensive network, some real planes have become safe and prosperous worlds like the back gardens of factions. The traces of players have become a decisive force in local history, and even local creatures are familiar with the concept of the comprehensive network.

These garden planes are rare, but they are important distribution hubs for materials and information in the multiverse.

Low-level new players who want to enter these permanent dungeons in advance often need a special item [World Pass].

This rare drop from a permanent dungeon allows the user to join the battle as a temporary mercenary and stay in the plane for a period of time.

[Agilent] mentioned during a chat with Lin Bo that when he became a trader on the Duolian Duoyi platform, he used a pass to sign a contract at the platform branch in the permanent copy.

If a novice wants to obtain the [World Pass], in addition to spending a large amount of disaster coins to buy it, he or she must either get to know the players in the permanent dungeon and be invited to fight, or join a large player organization to get the opportunity to meet offline.

Or when purchasing certain valuable goods on a trading platform, if the trader does not have the authority to resell them, he will invite the buyer to pick up the goods at various stores.

After seeing the five-digit price of the [World Pass], Lin Bo just smiled slightly and put it out of his mind, pretending he had never seen it.

His disaster currency balance does not allow him to look at such high-end products. If he looks at them too much, he will lose his pearls.

After recuperating in the temple for two hours, the mage woke up from his meditation.

It's time to descend into the poisonous swamp and face the enemy.

He unscrewed the small poison-purifying incense burner, filled it with incense powder, and waited until his body was surrounded by wisps of delicate white mist. Then he took off into the air and descended along the well.
