Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?! Chapter 897 802: Devilish Chants Assault the Ears (Part 2)

"Sounds like ho..." Yan Xuan tilted his head and swatted away the rcury lump trying to condense again. Thoughtfully, he said, "When I was born, I was taken in by Little Demon Beasts, and I had a ho. Does the master want to hear about it?"

It was a chance to understand more about his contract pet, boost affection, and kill ti, so Jiang Yuan imdiately agreed, listening to stories from a long, long ti ago.

[Silver Mirror Gem 1]

[... 2]

......

[Do you want to spend 300,000 Faith Value to claim this plot of land?]

As expected, the price increases layer by layer. After paying, Jiang Yuan looked at the less than one million Faith Value left and thought that it seed like it could be earned quickly, but it also gets spent quite fast.

Either recruit more believers or complete more charity orders quickly to gather more, otherwise it won't be enough to clear the dungeon.

"Today's land clearing went smoothly, Master, let's keep up the good work and clear the next plot of land!" Yan Xuan was full of energy.

Previously, he always thought that the useless creatures at ho only ate idly until today when hearing the master say that each one was useful. He wanted to earn more achievents to beco the most favored pet of the master!

Thinking that Faith Value was still enough and it was just noon, Jiang Yuan decided to continue. He aid to claim the fourth plot before nightfall, bringing him closer to collecting ten plots.

As they climbed the stairs, a large turtle wriggled its way in first and then stopped in shock—statues?!

"Knock knock knock~"

Jiang Yuan stepped in, and heard the sound of morning bells and evening drums, full and lodious, resounding through the world bathed in the light of Buddha.

"Buzz~"

A sound that seed like Sanskrit or wind slipped past his ears, and then nothing more. He stared at the dense statues scattered across the mountains and was stunned.

"Headache! Oh, the headache!" Yan Xuan covered his ears with his paws, annoyed, "Bald monk, stop chanting! Stop chanting! I've been listening for thousands of years, it's maddening!"

Provoked by the demonic sound piercing his ears, his beast nature erupted, his body bloating as he fiercely swept his tail!

"Boom!"

The peculiar statues collapsed.

Nonetheless, Jiang Yuan watched his contract pet's health bar light up and fall by a quarter as the statues crumbled into Stones, which rolled and reford into even more bizarre statues.

"Hey, master, directly set them on fire!" Yan Xuan saw that the Stones could automatically regenerate and with the irritating chanting sound in his ears, he yawned, "Burn them to the ground!"

Jiang Yuan:...

"Don't you feel pain? Why so suddenly aggressive?" He gave his pet a Blood Replenishing Pill to restore health and asked curiously, "Your hackles are raised."

Though thick-skinned, Yan Xuan gulped down the Elixir, shaking his head, "Not as painful as the master hits; these balls are delicious, hehe... Listening to baldy monks chant for thousands of years, now I hear this and my head hurts!"

Chanting?

Jiang Yuan was confused, why haven't I heard it?

Could the system have blocked it for ?

"What are they chanting?"

"How would I know." Yan Xuan felt dizzy and grumbled, "Master, if you listen to the monks chanting for thousands of years, would you rember what they babble on about every day? It's beyond annoying!"

Confird, for so reason the system had directly blocked it for him after hearing the sound when he first ca in.

He tossed a ball of Ice Fla at the nearest statue.

Flas burned the stone statue on the outside, twisting in features with grotesque limbs and even eerie tentacles.

"Bang!"

In a few monts, the flas exploded it.

Stones fell to the ground, then ssily reford into three stranger statues, larger than before, making the place feel even more cramped.

"Tch! This thing is really bizarre." Both Jiang Yuan and Yan Xuan were dumbfounded.

The bulky turtle appeared unconvinced, wanting to use force again, but Jiang Yuan pulled it back, "Don't face it head-on; using force will only multiply them making them larger."

"Then what do we do? My head hurts terribly." Yan Xuan was dazed by the sound waves, mumbling, "I'm at a loss, I'll do whatever the master says."

Jiang Yuan was troubled too, especially since entering the dungeon, the system's identification was unavailable.

This thing didn't offer instructions on gaplay; should he look for differences or play match-three gas, or pair them up?

Either way, neither Yan Xuan's brute strength nor the Ice Fla's purification were the right approach for dealing with the bizarre statues, only encouraging them to proliferate.

The more they fought, the harder it was to counterattack; if Yan Xuan used more force earlier, he could have seriously injured himself in countershock.

He even suspected that if the statues kept reproducing, it might trigger a chanism to summon an extrely challenging ga-boss.

Thus, breaking the impasse required thought and skill.

"You step out first; don't let the eerie chanting stun you." Jiang Yuan signaled Yan Xuan to leave, while he cautiously stepped in.

"Scratch, scratch!"

The sound of stone statues scraping against the ground reverberated as all the "statues" faced him, seemingly scrutinizing the bold intruder.

"Uh? Master, be very careful!" Yan Xuan shook his head hard, the sound wave attack giving him double vision; realizing that staying might cause him to faint, he decisively retreated and said, "Be careful, don't take risks! I'll step out and promptly return!"

"Go ahead, don't worry, I'll withdraw if I sense danger."

Each statue stood at least two ters tall, so holding a dozen arms, so with bulging eyes covering their faces, so with clusters of massive stone serpents on their heads like an umbrella...

All of them faced him, as if inspecting him from head to toe.

"It's so damn eerie; what on earth are these things?" Jiang Yuan noticed they watched him, exerting psychological pressure but not displaying any aggression yet, as he cautiously advanced two more steps.

Then, out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of faint black smoke forming an "image" of a statue within one of them.

Strikingly like the incomplete souls of folks like Wu Genxiang from before!

Passive Skills—Fire Eyes Golden Gaze!

Never expected this would apply here, thrilled, he imdiately fired off a Five Elents Cloud-Piercing Thunder!

Critical Strike -18000!

"Crack! Crack crack!"

Indeed, hitting the correct target unveiled its hidden health bar, while the fake statues without souls rose in unison, swinging stone axes and Stone Blades at him.

Jiang Yuan, adept at dealing with such slow-moving stone monsters, dodged and unleashed two more skills.

"Bang!"

The stone monster's health bar wasn't long, and two out of three skills landed critical hits, clearing it instantly.

As the main body crumbled, those peculiar statues threatening him also shattered into Stones, dispersed by the wind rapidly into dust.

[Life Origin 10]

[Current Life Origin Balance: 670 points]

"Haha! This is delightful!" Jiang Yuan blood with joy. Earning Life Origin by slaying monsters was excellent news!

Having tasted success, a small space freed up around him, facilitating movent.

"Bang bang!"

Without finding the next target, he heard loud explosions nearby.

Looking over, Jiang Yuan saw the statues were spontaneously splitting and "reproducing"; if his search was too slow or incorrect, they'd proliferate everywhere.

He needed to speed up!

The urgency led to errors; he circled once without finding the target, only to receive a prompt floating leisurely into view: [Special environnt, Passive Skills Fire Eyes Golden Gaze on cooldown...]

"Forget it, forget it, let's gather so allies." Seeing the Passive Skills on cooldown, Jiang Yuan chuckled, opened the contract pet interface, and summoned Xiao Bai directly.

Bai Yunqi was ditating in Furong Spirit Pool, preparing for the Walking Flood Dragon, making the most out of cultivation ti.

Suddenly sensing the Venerable Family's summons, he didn't hesitate, grabbing his gear ready to fight.

In the blink of an eye, he stood amidst the cluster of eerie "statues," his head buzzing, frowning slightly, "Venerable Family, where is this? Such strong sound wave attacks, quickly calm your mind to avoid the magic sound from disturbing your mind!"

Jiang Yuan:...

I really can't hear it, the system's blocking is too considerate.
