Chapter 117: This Is A F*cking Cult, Right?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Under the endless canyon, there was a figure that was not detected.
That person was Chen Kun.
At this moment, Chen Kun was using the Earthly Immortal to shuttle under the ground.
It was as if he was looking for something.
The Earthly Immortal skill usually did not seem to be of any use.
However, when it came to investigating the enemy’s situation and assassination, that was a god-level skill!
Earthly Immortal did not just let him travel underground. It could also hide his aura and stop others from discovering him.
For example, when dealing with the Withered Rat King, the Withered Rat King’s eyes had degenerated,
but its nose was greatly strengthened.
No matter how small the aura was, it could sense it with its sharp perception.
It could even smell his emotions!
That didn’t sound very impressive.
However, it could smell the enemy’s emotions in battle.
It could even predict the enemy’s actions!
The Withered Rat King could do this.
This was also the real reason why the Withered Rat King could not be killed.
It probed the taste of emotions and found the most suitable emotions for a sneak attack.
After they let down their guard.
This way, it would become the best assassin.
Unfortunately, it met Chen Kun.
Chen Kun’s Earthly Immortal concealed all his aura.
It made Chen Kun fuse with the ground.
It was also because of this that Chen Kun could deal with the Withered Rat King.
The Rat King could not even discover him even if he was in front of it.
Now, Chen Kun was still using the Earthly Immortal.
Following Shu Anxing’s guidance, Chen Kun arrived at a cave hundreds of meters underground.
The cave deep under the canyon was filled with the corpses of monsters.
[Source: Level 5 Crevice Monster!]
[Race: Armored Scorpion]
[Level: Commander-Level Monster!]
[The powerful Armored Scorpion can even resist attacks that far exceed its level!]
[The remaining traces tell the world that they didn’t seem to have died so peacefully.]
Chen Kun raised his guard.
Now, he knew why no monsters appeared in this huge Level 5 crevice.
It seemed like they had all died here.
No wonder the monsters outside the crevice were unwilling to go deeper. They were unwilling to go in even if they were surrounded and killed at the periphery.
At first, Chen Kun thought that it was some kind of territorial consciousness.
It turned out that they just didn’t want to come out and were afraid of death.
The monsters’ corpses had all been found.
Who was the one who killed them?
It could casually kill a commander-level monster in a Level 5 Crevice, and it was a monster famous for its defense.
This strength was probably not something that a simple king-level could do.
Just as Chen Kun was feeling puzzled, a sound came from not far away. Hearing the commotion, Chen Kun hurriedly dived underground.
Through Earthly Immortal Chen Kun, he sensed a sound not far away.
Was it a human?
Chen Kun could sense that the two people—one tall and one short. They looked like humans, but their clothes were strange and their faces could not be seen clearly.
The taller one suddenly spoke,
“All the monsters with some strength in this crevice have been captured. How many more does the ritual need?”
“According to the priest’s calculations, we need about four to five more commander-level monsters. However, we’ve already emptied this crevice. The remaining ones can’t even make up to one.”
“Aren’t there still humans in the periphery? It’s the same if we capture them.”
The short man hesitated when he heard this.
“Didn’t the high priest say to try not to attract the attention of any humans?”
“What’s there to be afraid of? The ritual is about to be completed anyway. Besides, it’s very normal for a few people to disappear and die in a Level 5 crevice.”
“As long as the ritual is completed, the high priest won’t blame us!”
Hearing this, the short man did not hesitate anymore and quickly left with the tall man.
After the two of them left, Chen Kun looked in the direction they left and was puzzled.
What the hell were they doing?
And what was this high priest?
Chen Kun turned to look in the direction where the two of them came from.
It didn’t seem to be very far away. Should he go take a look?
Then, Chen Kun used Earthly Immortal and prepared to head to the place where the two of them came from.
As for the matter of capturing adventurers as sacrifices,
Chen Kun did not want to interfere at all.
Just as the two monsters had said.
It was normal for one or two people to die in a Level 5 crevice.
It was not much to have the two of them missing.
No one would care.
Putting aside whether their lives were related to Chen Kun,
even if they were related,
Chen Kun would not stand up and stop them now.
After all, he knew nothing about the two monsters now. The only thing he knew was that the two monsters should be very strong.
Those commander-level Armored Scorpions would not have committed suicide.
Most importantly…
Chen Kun had tried to probe their information just now, but he did not manage to read it.
This made Chen Kun even more vigilant.
If Chen Kun had been hot-headed just now and rushed up to ask them what they were going to do, although Chen Kun was very strong now and had never met anyone stronger than him at the same level, he had always been very clear-headed.
He did not think that he was invincible.
Those who had such thoughts usually died the fastest.
Only by knowing oneself and the enemy could one win a hundred battles. He did not know what the two of them wanted to do now and what their strengths were.
The outcomes of rashly stepping forward were:
The best possibility was that he would fight one against two and win, but he might be seriously injured.
The worse possibility was that he would escape with injuries.
The worst choice was to be injured and captured if he couldn’t win.
None of these were what Chen Kun wanted.
Not to mention that there was a priest who had never shown his face.
If they really fought, it was unknown.
Chen Kun would not take the risk for strangers!
After all, the two of them were not catching him, and he did not know who they were catching.
More importantly, if he went to stop it, what could he get?
He would get nothing.
They wouldn’t even thank him.
Even if he wanted to save them, Chen Kun would only step forward to save them when they were really captured.
Only then could he obtain gratitude and rewards.
Otherwise, why would he save them?
What?
What if they were already dead when they were captured?
They were unlucky then.
Soon, Chen Kun arrived at a magnificent underground space!
It was mysterious and strange.
The ground was covered in strange patterns.
There was an altar in the middle, as if something was placed there.
Such a huge space was created hundreds of meters underground.
It was definitely not something those two people could do!
Although the two of them looked extraordinary,
Chen Kun was shocked as he looked at everything on the underground altar.
Coupled with what the two of them said earlier, Chen Kun was certain.
Those two people were definitely up to no good.
It looked like a cult..
