A Comprehensive Network: An Endless Adventure Begins as a Wanderer

Chapter 93 Seventeen Swords, You Can Kill Me Instantly?

Kuramanu's fireball exploded in the center of the horde of abyssal vengeful spirits.

Dark red flames spread in a ring, frost collided with the flames, steam surged, and a piercing hiss filled the air.

The size of the abyssal vengeful spirits shrank by half in an instant, and the vengeful spirits on the outer perimeter melted and dissipated in the dark flames, turning into puddles of black sewage.

However, Cheng Yi keenly noticed that the core vengeful spirit at its very core was completely unharmed.

The core vengeful spirit cowered, while the surrounding vengeful spirits took all the damage for it.

Immediately afterwards, the core vengeful spirit opened its mouth and spat out a shrill cry, and many new vengeful spirits emerged from the cold air.

The black frost spun slowly, and countless distorted faces rose and fell, as if mocking him.

Cheng Yi squinted.

"Kuramanu, keep bombarding."

Fireballs were fired one after another.

But the moment each fireball lands, the core vengeful spirit shrinks into its deepest recesses.

After firing more than a dozen fireballs, most of the outer vengeful spirits died, but the core vengeful spirit remained alive and kicking.

Kuramanu's magic power is almost depleted.

However, this was merely a feint.

While Kuramanu was slaying the vengeful spirits on the periphery, Cheng Yi had already rushed into the bone-chilling smoke under the protection of the shadows.

The cold air rushed in from all directions, and Cheng Yi's health points began to drop accordingly.

Fortunately, with the Shadow Body and the Ocean Guardian Badge working together to restore health, this damage was negligible.

The nameless sword was drawn, its blade covered in a layer of pure silver-white light.

That's the stolen effect of the Silver Sword in the Lake; its Holy attribute deals extra damage to the undead and vengeful spirits.

The sword pierced the core of the vengeful spirit.

However, the moment the blade pierced the core, the core vengeful spirit suddenly emitted a burst of black light, and an outer vengeful spirit suddenly teleported in front of Cheng Yi's sword tip, blocking the attack.

The outer vengeful spirits collapsed, but the core vengeful spirit remained unharmed.

Cheng Yi's pupils contracted slightly.

"To die in someone else's place?"

But Cheng Yi smiled slightly as he looked at the few remaining vengeful spirits around the core vengeful spirit.

The second sword followed immediately.

With the third and fourth sword strikes, Wuming transformed into streaks of silver-white light, striking one after another so fast that even afterimages were left behind.

With the added advantage of superhuman agility, one second.

Sixteen swords.

Each sword thrust at a different angle, and each sword was blocked by an outer vengeful spirit.

The sixteen outer vengeful spirits collapsed, and after sixteen substitutions, the core vengeful spirit finally gave out and was exposed to Cheng Yi's sword.

The seventeenth sword.

The nameless sword pierced through the core of the vengeful spirit.

A holy light shone through the frost, the core vengeful spirit let out a final shriek, a dark blue aura surged, and all the distorted faces vanished simultaneously.

The horde of vengeful spirits began to disintegrate, gradually turning into shattered ice and sewage.

You have defeated the Abyssal Wraith Cluster (Elite Boss) and gained 500 kill experience points.

[You have obtained the Elite Resentment Chest (Pale Gold) from the Abyss Cluster!]

The shadows surged, but Cheng Yi did not extract the image quality.

Because he could sense that deep within the shadows, a longing was quietly rising within him—

The lingering soul power of the vengeful spirits lurking in the shadows was being completely devoured by him.

[Network notification: Based on your talent ability "Shadow Plunder," you have devoured the shadow of a swarm of abyssal vengeful spirits.]

[Your innate ability: Shadowplunder (Perception) progress has been updated to (1/8) ————]

Cheng Yi smiled.

"Seventeen cards are hard to say, but seventeen swords can definitely kill you instantly—"

[You have killed a level 9 Phantom Lurker, gaining 300 kill experience points and 3 Shadow Qualities.]

[Current monster clearing progress: 1000/1000]

[The basic requirements for the first level of the secret realm have been met]

[You have obtained the first-level dungeon clear reward: Demon-Slaying Treasure Chest (Gold)!]

Based on the defeated mutated sealed spirit, the secret realm seal has been repaired. Current seal integrity: 27.01% (up 0.37%).

Cheng Yi sheathed his sword.

"One thousand, done."

He looked at his image quality reserves, which had risen to over 400 points.

After all, during this period, he did not devour every monster to obtain its shadow, or transform it into a shadow servant.

Since most abyssal creatures possess fire resistance, Cheng Yi also consumed a considerable amount of shadows to enhance his own fire resistance.

Based on your talent "Shadow Body," your fire resistance has been increased, and your current fire damage is reduced to 5.19%.

Cheng Yi closed the panel and looked straight ahead.

He had slaughtered his way to the edge of this wasteland.

Here, a curtain of flowing shadows extends to both sides, firmly enveloping the entire wasteland.

This must be the power of the secret realm itself?

Cheng Yi gently touched the shadow.

Do you want to leave the current area "Desolate Rift" and head to the nearby area "Abandoned Mechanical City"?

Mechanical City?

For Cheng Yi, the only thing he could think of was the Mo Family's Mechanized City.

Perfect timing, I'm getting a bit tired of killing these monsters —

It's not bad to look at the mechanical inventions created by our predecessors, is it?

Cheng Yi thought this to himself, and then took a step forward—

The world behind the curtain wall is completely different from the wasteland.

If the wasteland is a purgatory of the abyss, then this is a graveyard of machines.

The sky was leaden gray, devoid of daylight, with only countless pale fluorescent tubes hanging overhead, like rows of dead people's white eyes.

The ground was made of rusted metal plates, which made a dull "thump-thump" sound when stepped on, as if stepping on hollow iron sheets.

The surrounding area was piled high with discarded machine parts.

A broken robotic arm, shattered gears, burnt circuit boards, and half-melted pipes.

Some of the parts were still faintly glowing, their incomplete patterns and engravings flickering in and out.

The air was filled with the smell of engine oil, burnt bits, and ozone.

In the distance, several mechanical objects were moving slowly.

They come in various shapes and sizes.

Some were humanoid, covered in rusted armor, with red sensors slowly rotating on their heads.

Some are multi-legged reptiles, dragging broken cables along their abdomens, leaving trails of sparks on the ground.

Some were simply a pile of wreckage pieced together, like a deformed lump of iron.

Their sensors were all flashing an unstable red light.

[Level 7 Chaotic Mech/Heavy Cavalry II Defense Robot/Armor Enhancement]

[Level 7 Chaotic Mechanism / "Third Generation Millipede" Multi-purpose Engineering Machine]

[Level 8 Chaotic Mechanism / "Chimera" Experimental Construct / Mechanical Devouring / Evolutionary Awakening]

Cheng Yi watched all this silently from the far distance in the shadows, his eyes twitching slightly.

I was so stupid, really.

There shouldn't be many native monsters in this secret realm.

I should have thought of this sooner.

God knows how many other dimensions invaded this world in ancient times —

However, it seems that the ancestors weren't wrong to call these intelligent machines "mechanisms"—
