Chapter 188 - 188 Blood-Colored Pillar!
188 Blood-Colored Pillar!
Lin Bei activated his Eye of Stars talent and searched for Elena in the pitch-black Purgatory of Nothingness.
Soon, he realized that there was a towering stone pillar in the distance. The stone pillar was covered in dense chains. Countless blood-colored lightning bolts descended from the sky and landed on the stone pillar, emitting rumbling sounds.
“She should be over there.”
Lin Bei thought to himself and told the people around him his plan.
“Later, you guys hide at the side. If the Warden discovers me, I’ll immediately unleash my full strength and directly suppress his life. At that time, you guys quickly attack and use your suppression abilities to quickly defeat him!”
“Okay.”
Everyone nodded slightly.
This space was pitch-black.
Even with their Extraordinary strength, the furthest they could detect was only two to three hundred meters.
It was completely incomparable to Lin Bei himself.
This was the terrifying aspect of the sixth level of the Blood Demon Prison, the Purgatory of Nothingness.
On this level, there were dense Laws of Darkness that almost devoured all the light, making it difficult for people to investigate their surroundings.
Of course, as the guardians, the two wardens of the Blood Demon Prison had special methods to resolve this problem.
They were using an array stone that could directly offset some of the effects of the Law of Darkness on them. However, even so, the distance they could probe was only about a thousand meters. Compared to a special existence like Lin Bei who had the Eye of Stars, they were on a completely different level.
Lin Bei led the few of them to hide and quietly moved towards the huge stone pillar in the center of the Purgatory of Nothingness.
Compared to the other five levels, the sixth level of the Blood Demon Prison was only about 1% of their sizes. However, even so, it was enough to cover an area of 50 kilometers.
“Let’s do it here. The two of you, set an ambush here.”
Lin Bei looked at Qiqi and Jian Ba and said in a low voice, “As for Lucretia, I’ll put you into my pet space just in case.”
“Be careful.”
Qiqi nodded.
“Yes, don’t worry. I won’t die so easily!”
Lin Bei smiled and nodded. He looked up at the huge stone pillar that was less than five thousand meters away from him.
Now that he was close, he could see more clearly. On the stone pillar, there were all kinds of complicated blood-colored carvings. They were like veins that absorbed the blood lightning energy from the sky and teleported it to various areas on the stone pillar to torture the prisoners on the stone pillar.
Around the stone pillar, huge chains fluttered and countless blood aura filled the air, covering the situation on the stone pillar.
However, under Lin Bei’s Eye of Stars, nothing could be hidden.
He immediately saw the cage embedded on the huge stone pillar. Following the blood-colored patterns, cages would appear at regular intervals. These locations were like nodes that connected the entire huge stone pillar. As they were washed by the blood-colored lightning energy time and time again, they emitted dense life force that entered the blood-colored ground under the stone pillar and disappeared.
“This life force is teleported underground?”
Lin Bei looked puzzled and fell into deep thought. “Could it be that there’s something mysterious under the stone pillar?”
Lin Bei silently noted down his discovery and his gaze returned to the blood-colored stone pillar.
The most important thing for him now was to find Elena and save her.
As for the rest, he would think about it after saving the person.
“This stone pillar is too huge. If I have to search, I’m afraid I won’t be able to find her even after a long time. Moreover, I’ll be easily discovered by the supervisors here. This won’t do. I have to think of a better way.”
Lin Bei’s gaze was solemn. He had successfully infiltrated the sixth level of the Blood Demon Prison to catch them off guard. If he was exposed now, all his preparations would be meaningless.
“Why don’t we… change our train of thought? Let’s kill one of the wardens guarding this place first before saving her?”
Lin Bei’s eyes flickered.
Currently, as his attributes increased, if his star power erupted fully, he could cause close to 300 billion damage. A full-strength attack would definitely consume most of the Warden’s health. Next, if Jian Ba, who was already secretly accumulating strength, attacked, it should not be difficult to take him down.
This way, even if the other warden reacted, it would be too late by the time he arrived.
Thinking of this, Lin Bei asked Qiqi and Jian Ba for their opinions.
“Haha, we should have done this a long time ago! What’s there to be afraid of? If the two of us attack, we can definitely catch a Warden off guard! As for the other one, it’s useless even if he comes. We have many people and can slowly exhaust him to death!”
Jian Ba said excitedly.
“I have no objections.”
Qiqi said.
Lin Bei nodded after hearing that.
He looked at the pile of equipment in his inventory and felt more confident.
If it really didn’t work, he would recycle the equipment. After maximizing the power of the stars, he would erupt again.
Although it was a waste of resources, everything was worth it for the safety of his life.
“The equipment on me now is enough for me to recover to full star power four times. It’s enough!”
Lin Bei thought to himself. He looked at Qiqi and Jian Ba and said in a low voice, “Then let’s follow this plan. Let’s get rid of a Warden first and then go look for her! If we encounter any unexpected situations, don’t fight. Our own safety is the most important!”
“Alright! I was waiting for you to say that!”
Jian Ba grinned and touched the huge sword in his hand, his eyes filled with anticipation.
After explaining everything, Lin Bei looked at the blood-colored stone pillar again. Other than the rolling blood-colored thunderclouds, the place with the heaviest blood energy should be where the Blood Demon Warden was.
Soon, Lin Bei locked onto a location.
It was a place at the top of the stone pillar. On the other side of the stone pillar, Lin Bei’s vision was blocked by the stone pillar.
“That should be it.”
Lin Bei took a deep breath and snuck over.
Under the detection of the Eye of Stars, he easily dodged some of the restrictions around the huge stone pillar. Just like that, he arrived at an area about 500 meters away from the blood-colored stone pillar without any obstructions.
“This life force is so dense!”
Lin Bei felt the life force rushing down from the top of the stone pillar and was extremely shocked.
Previously, he had collected more than 200,000 portions of life force, but together, they were not even 1% of the life force here!
“Moreover, this life force seems to have been completely purified after passing through the stone pillar and has become very pure!”
Lin Bei was shocked. This feeling was like the effect of being purified by his Holy Light Purification. No, it was even better!
“Why is the Blood Demon Prison collecting this life force?”
Lin Bei was puzzled.
He could not help but think of Shopkeeper Jin.
Could it be that like Shopkeeper Jin, the people in the Blood Demon Prison also wanted to use this life force to give a certain existence a new life?
