Chapter 2450 Giving Up
"Hmm, it seems the undead have given up on Frost Hell," Karolina said, looking up. "Let's continue forward."
"Yes!"
Enduring the harsh cold of Frost Hell, the group slowly advanced deeper into the realm.
The temperature dropped even further.
Hearing the knight's report, Fang Heng knew it was time for him to act.
Before proceeding, he needed to deal with the warm sun gemstone.
Fang Heng, pretending to be unable to withstand the cold, carefully approached the central area where the warm sun gemstone was located.
Three Purifiers guarded the gemstone at the center. At first, they did not pay much attention to Fang Heng's approach, seeing him as merely an ordinary believer with a limited ability to withstand the cold aura of Frost Hell.
Taking advantage of their lack of vigilance, Fang Heng boldly moved closer to the warm sun gemstone.
"It's so cold..."
He exaggeratedly shivered, cautiously observing the expressions of the Purifiers, and reached out to gently touch the warm sun gemstone.
"Hey, believer! Don't touch!"
One of the Purifiers called out to stop him.
"Sorry... I'm just so cold," Fang Heng replied, pulling back his hand and shivering.
The Purifier scrutinized Fang Heng for a moment and warned, "Stay nearby, but don't touch."
"Alright, alright."
Fang Heng abandoned the idea of directly handling the gemstone and moved a few steps closer to it.
Since he couldn't touch it directly, he would have to think of another approach.
Got it!
Fang Heng's eyes narrowed as he came up with a new plan.
"Whoosh!"
Fang Heng concentrated his mental strength, channeling it through the ice crystal imprint in his sea of consciousness, and directed it towards the warm sun gemstone.
Hmm?
The nearby Purifiers suddenly sensed a chilling aura emanating from Fang Heng's direction and looked around in confusion.
Where did that come from?
Was it coming from outside?
Before they could investigate further, the warm sun gemstone emitted a gentle ripple of energy, dissipating the cold aura.
The Purifiers furrowed their brows, but not detecting any other anomalies, they refocused their attention on the undead creatures intermittently appearing around them.
Perfect!
Seeing that his plan was effective, Fang Heng felt a surge of satisfaction and continued to pour his aura into the warm sun gemstone, accelerating the depletion of its internal strength.
The gemstone appeared normal externally, but Fang Heng knew well that its internal power was rapidly waning.
The team continued to advance slowly, nearing the inner depths of the shady line.
By this point, the external cold had diminished to an extremely low level.
Fang Heng, noticing the timing was right, shivered as he approached Karolina and said, "Lady Karolina, I received information earlier that we are getting close to the source of the shady line deep within the cave. Fang Heng is likely hiding inside."
"Hmm."
Karolina nodded, carefully examining the inner region of the cave.
"It's so cold here, I can't bear it any longer..."
"Alright, you've done well. I'll arrange for someone to escort you back to Frost Fortress."
Karolina did not doubt him.
An ordinary believer who had managed to reach this point under the team's protection was already commendable.
"Thank you, Lady."
Fang Heng expressed his gratitude repeatedly and left with the escort of two Holy Realm knights.
[Hint: The player has completed the mission-Guide to Frost Hell.]
[Hint: The player's current mission rating: C. The player has gained favor with Karolina, and received 4,000 Holy Court reputation points.]
As the two Holy Realm knights escorted Fang Heng away, the game prompts flashed rapidly across his retina.
Got it!
Fang Heng licked his lips with satisfaction.
Suddenly, the knights' instincts kicked in as they felt a chilling aura suddenly emanating from Fang Heng.
"Whoosh!"
What?!
In an instant, Fang Heng's body twisted in the air, forming a dark whirlpool.
In a flash, a shadowy Death God phantom emerged from the whirlpool!
So close!
"Whoosh!"
With a whoosh, the black scythe sliced through the air.
"Bang!"
The outer divine shields of the two Holy Realm knights exploded instantly, shattering and sending debris flying in all directions.
Whoosh!
Fang Heng's form blinked out and reappeared behind the Holy Realm knights. With a swift motion, he swung the Death God scythe once more.
Pursue!
"Bang!"
In practice, Fang Heng gained a clearer understanding of the "Death God Scythe" skill.
He realized an advantage he had almost overlooked:
The Death God scythe was a skill without a cooldown!
Each attack dealt high mental strength damage, and combined with the Tier 1 blink effect, it allowed for continuous, uninterrupted use of the skill as long as his mental strength and agility attributes were sufficient.
The effect was explosive!
Fang Heng's figure flickered around the Holy Realm knights.
Several strikes later, the barrier around the Holy Realm knight shattered with a resounding boom, and a bloody gash appeared on his neck.
The Holy Realm's knight's eyes glazed over with a deathly gray.
"Death... Death God?!"
The other knight, alarmed, drew his holy knight commander sword, but before he could react, Fang Heng had already vanished into the air and reappeared behind the knight.
In a blink!
The dark scythe slashed through the air once more.
The Death God's form continued to flicker around the Holy Realm knights.
In less than half a minute, the second knight's holy shield exploded, and he fell under the relentless assault of the Death God's scythe.
[Hint: The player has slain Holy Realm's guardian knight*2. The player has received Tier 3 brilliant crystal*1.]
Death gaze!
Whoosh!
Fang Heng's eyes were suddenly shrouded in a deathly gray.
In an instant, his vision turned black and white.
In the air, the souls of the two Holy Realm knights floated clearly.
Two soul bodies were drawn by a special force, slowly drifting towards a dim spatial point in the sky.
A holy shield enveloped the periphery of their soul bodies.
Previously, intercepting these souls would have required a constant assault with undead abilities to wear down the outer holy shield.
It was quite a troublesome task!
"Hmph! Stay here!"
Fang Heng raised his hand toward the souls of the two guardian knights.
His hand closed tightly!
The Death God's bloodline ability was activated.
Death realm: Reap.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"
Under the effect of the skill, the holy shields around the souls shattered instantly!
"Whoosh! Whoosh!!"
The centers of the two souls rapidly developed white vortexes that absorbed them completely.
Done!
After all, reaping was the Death God's primary function.
The skill proved to be highly effective!
[Hint: The player has guided 2 A-tier souls into the death realm. The player gains 20,000 commander-level Death God bloodline experience points.]
