[You recall the mythological legends recorded in the monastery…]
[It is said that the lofty Gadalina Mountain Range lies along the border of the divine kingdom. As long as one crosses the Audience Ravine, known as the Endpoint of Ascension, one can truly enter the Wet Nurse’s divine kingdom!]
[Everything before your eyes is exactly as recorded in the myths and legends. You have finally reached the border of the divine kingdom, and as long as you cross the ravine, you can fulfill your lifelong wish!]
[Yet for so reason, you feel no excitent at all right now. The divine kingdom of the Wet Nurse that you once longed for now seems nothing special.]
[You even feel a sense of disgust and nausea, as if the distant place were not a sacred divine kingdom but a filthy cesspit…]
[Do you want to head toward the Audience Ravine?]
“So it turns out reaching the divine kingdom is this simple…”
If one did not have any flying skills, all one needed to do was possess the initial shell gifted by the ga and jump into the Sea of Corruption, and there was a high chance of reaching the divine kingdom of the Desire Wet Nurse.
Lin Xun switched to the Greedy Wolf Star Lord shell and used sword-flight to rush forward.
He flew for over ten minutes before finally drawing close to the Audience Ravine.
Greedy Wolf Star Lord’s sword-flight was currently the fastest thod of travel. Other than the substantial true essence cost of flying, it had no other drawbacks.
In normal circumstances, sword-flight basically had no altitude limit, only a true essence limit. The higher one flew, the faster true essence was consud.
In this chapter, however, for so unknown reason, the cursed ga had set an ‘altitude limit.’ As soon as he rose more than a little over ten to nearly twenty ters above the ground, he would be blocked by a mysterious imnse force.
Lin Xun suspected that this kind of restriction was related to the chapter’s background, but with the limited information he had so far, he still could not see the whole picture from a single clue.
[…]
[With your high-speed sword-flight, you have already drawn near to the Audience Ravine…]
[Only when you get close to the Audience Ravine do you clearly feel how tall the Gadalina Mountain Range truly is. Looking up from near the foot of the mountain, you cannot see where the mountain peaks are at all.]
[No wonder the Gadalina Mountain Range can serve as the divine mountain that guards the border of the divine kingdom.]
[Only, as you draw closer and closer to the Audience Ravine, you realize that it is not only the majestic mountain range that guards the border of the divine kingdom…]
[You cautiously land on the ground.]
[At the opening of the ravine not far ahead, between two towering cliffs, a gigantic shadow lies sleeping.]
[You carefully approach the ravine and gradually see the true form of that gigantic shadow…]
[It is a massive humanoid monster leaning against the cliff in slumber. Pale carapace covers its entire body. A huge horn grows from its head, and its sturdy, jointed limbs are covered in barbs…]
[You notice that it wears a pale mask that conceals its true face, preventing you from seeing the monster’s features.]
[A broad cloak wraps its colossus-like enormous body. Even in its sleep, it clutches tightly in its arms a giant stinger shaped like a dragon lance.]
[That stinger is as long as a flagpole and as thick as a colossal pillar. Its tip is extraordinarily sharp and is truly a massive lethal weapon in every sense!]
[You have discovered the Ascended Dragon Knight at the Divine Kingdom’s Border!]
Lin Xun’s mouth twitched, and he could not help voicing a complaint.
“Cursed ga, you actually dare to call this thing a Dragon Knight?”
[As an Apostle standing at the border of the divine kingdom, what will you do?]
[1. While the Dragon Knight at the Border is still asleep, form a sword seal and unleash your strongest strike, Northern Dipper Heaven’s Sword Technique Manual, to send him to Ascend to heaven.]
[2. Switch to the Ascended Monastery Abbot shell, wake the Dragon Knight at the Border, and tell him that a devout child has co on pilgrimage seeking entry to the Wet Nurse’s divine kingdom.]
[3. Maintain the Aberrant Monastery Monk shell, do not disturb the Dragon Knight at the Border, and secretly cross the Audience Gorge to reach the filthy, disgusting Realm of the Despicable.]
As usual, the first option was very likely the ‘courting death’ option.
The correct option lay between the second and third.
Judging from the current situation, the safest approach should be to choose the second option, pretending to be an insider coming on pilgrimage. In all likelihood, he would be able to skip the fight.
After weighing it for a long while, Lin Xun made up his mind.
He did not choose the second or third options and instead, going against his usual practice, chose the suicidal first option.
If you asked him why, there was no particular reason. He just had too much soul strength and wanted to spend so. It was absolutely not because he was coveting the Dragon Knight’s mask and weapon.
Even so, there were still so preparations to make before pressing the first option.
Although this was the beginning of the chapter and generally speaking there would not be any extrely difficult bosses, the titles divine kingdom and Dragon Knight were too intimidating, so he had no choice but to treat this with caution.
[You possess the shell of the Fire-Worshipping Palace Master of Iya Palace!]
[You shake the Refined Copper Sand Maraca. The Battle Angel – Valkyrie walks out of the void toward you.]
[You wave the Purifying Exorcism Wand and form seals while chanting…]
[A thin, frail-looking youth materializes at your side. Origin-Tracing Nurarihyon has responded to your summons!]
[Purple lightning surges as a peerlessly beautiful woman treads the air and descends. Her sleeves flutter, and she is wreathed all around by a sea-like torrent of violet thunder. Origin-Tracing Nine-Tailed Fox has responded to your summons!]
[At your command, Nurarihyon shuts his eyes tightly and chants under his breath…]
[Yokai Art – Phantom Illusion Domain activates!]
[The mountain range, which had been as tall as the clouds in the sky, vanishes from sight, and the scenery before you changes completely…]
[Heaven and earth are shrouded in darkness. A bitterly cold wind howls like demons trapped in the depths of an abyss, roaring again and again.]
[The sky is filled with oppressive dark clouds that seem about to collapse and crush the heavens.]
[Torrential rain and rolling thunder arrive together, bringing a bloody baptism to this long-barren land.]
[The slumbering Ascended Dragon Knight at the Divine Kingdom’s Border slowly opens his eyes and awakens…]
[From beneath the pale mask cos an extrely furious roar!]
[Heretic! Wretched heretic who dares to profane the supre Wet Nurse!]
[He lifts the gigantic dragon lance ford from a stinger and launches a charge at you…]
[The ferocity of the charge causes the ground to tremble and rocks to fly!]
[The pale cloak snaps in the howling gale. The spear tip, wrapped in the pouring rain and sudden thunderclaps, grows larger and larger in front of your eyes…]
[You possess the shell of Desire-Bearing Greedy Wolf Star Lord!]
[You evade with sword-flight, swiftly dodging this ferocious blow.]
[At that mont, the Nine-Tailed Fox suddenly raises a hand and points at the Dragon Knight…]
[At so unknown ti, a heavy black cloud has appeared in the sky. Lightning surges within it, and purple bolts flicker.]
[Nine gigantic fox tails unfurl from behind the woman, and the phantom of a celestial fox throws back its head and roars at the sky!]
[Heaven and earth fall completely silent in an instant. The howling wind ceases, the pouring rain cos to a halt, and you are plunged into utter darkness where you cannot see your hand before your face.]
[In the next mont, blazing violet lightning descends upon the world!]
[The tribulation cloud drops a resplendent divine thunderbolt. The explosion of lightning illuminates all things under heaven and earth, the violet bolts so dazzling that you cannot keep your eyes open.]
[Only when the radiance of the lightning fades does the thunder, powerful enough to shatter eardrums, roll across the sky.]
[The Dragon Knight in front of you crashes to the ground. The pale carapace on his body is covered in charred black and spiderweb-like cracks.]
[You look at the smoking Ascended Dragon Knight at the Divine Kingdom’s Border and slowly lower the hand that had ford a sword seal…]
“Is that all?”
Lin Xun felt as if he had used a cannon to swat a mosquito.
Guarding the border of the divine kingdom? Dragon Knight? and yet this was all? That was a bit too weak.
The monsters in this chapter had extrely tenacious vitality. Even after suffering fatal injuries, it still took a while before the cursed ga would send notice of their death.
Although Lin Xun said with his mouth that the Dragon Knight was weak, his actions were still very cautious. To prevent the monster from playing dead, he prepared to use his skills again to deliver a ruthless finishing blow.
[…]
[Suddenly, the ground begins to tremble, as if an earthquake has struck.]
[You hurriedly steady your stance and manage not to fall in this sudden quake.]
[The shaking of the ground grows more and more intense, and a heaven-shaking roar cos from underground…]
[The earth suddenly splits open, and from it bursts a colossal monster!]
[Its body is extrely fat and thick, like a giant serpent that can swallow mountains. Its long, sinuous body is entirely pale and slippery.]
[Its body is so fat that at the bends between its coiled segnts, layers of folds are squeezed out.]
[Its head has no eyes and only a ferocious circular mouth. When the round maw opens, it reveals rings of densely packed fangs and foul-slling secretions…]
[You have discovered the Ascended Dragon at the Divine Kingdom’s Border!]
[The Dragon swallows the Dragon Knight in a single bite, and before long, the Dragon Knight is spat back out, covered in sli.]
[The Dragon Knight’s pale carapace is completely renewed, with no trace of scorch marks or cracks.]
[He swings himself back atop the Dragon, and the dragon lance ford from a stinger points at you once more as he roars again…]
[Heretic! Wretched heretic who dares to profane the supre Wet Nurse!]
Lin Xun gnashed his teeth.
“Damn!”
“Cursed ga, you were not lying. This monster really is a Dragon Knight!”
