Chapter 1138: Chapter 1138

A sense of vertigo washed over him as the Evil Dragon King and the pervasive dark powers vanished without a trace; was he out?

Du You looked at the enormous, unidentified statue before him, feeling an extraordinary sense of relief. If he hadn’t been teleported in time, he certainly would have died in that illusory world; the task had been too difficult.

Who would have thought that a world considered to be at the fifth tier would suddenly escalate to such a terrifying extent?

Du You understood why so many who undertook this wishing task ended up dead; encountering bad luck, it was very normal to die. Moreover, each time one came to this world, only one wish could be made. The benefits granted by a successful wish were immense, so it made sense that there were such great restrictions.

Suddenly, Du You heard two muffled groans next to him. The Lin sisters’ knees buckled, and they fell toward him. Du You quickly reached out to catch them in his arms, and upon looking down, he noticed how pale and weak the sisters appeared.

"What’s wrong with you?" They looked to be in very bad shape.

"It’s, it’s nothing, just the corrosive dark powers from before that made us uncomfortable," Lin Yushi said.

"Fortunately, our power suppresses evil forces, so a little rest should do the trick," Lin Yucha added. Although they were completely drained of strength, after only a few minutes, they were able to stand on their own.

The people around cast envious glances at the three of them; it was obvious they had succeeded. Du You pocketed the blueprint he held without paying any attention to the others and carried the sisters to rest nearby.

He hadn’t expected to encounter such a drastic change. It seemed unnecessary to get involved with this type of wishing task in the future.

It took a full two hours of rest before the Lin sisters finally recovered. The power of the Evil Dragon King was supremely malicious, yet indeed suppressed by the sisters’ power. However, the Evil Dragon King had merged with the world’s laws, and despite being suppressed due to the nature of the power, the sisters still could not resist it.

After being eroded for a while, that’s why they were so weakened. If they had stayed in that environment longer, they may not have been eroded to death, but they would have likely been forcibly transformed into evil creatures.

Indeed, in any world, one must be cautious when facing the pinnacle beings. Thinking back to the Evil Dragon King, it was truly a harrowing memory.

However, Du You found that not all the outcomes were negative; this time, there was a rather pleasant surprise.

Not only had he completed the task and obtained the Crystal Coin Forge blueprint he wanted, but his strength had also seen a considerable enhancement. Slaughtering giant dragons, even if they were only illusory, had advanced his Shadow Dragon Bloodline to the fifth tier. Otherwise, facing a Holy Dragon King at half a step above the sixth tier with Spatial Attribute, he would have surely been overwhelmed.

Without the support of a bloodline, in that previous battle, it would have been uncertain who would win or lose, and that was because the opponent wasn’t adept at fighting. It seemed that within the fifth tier, there were many stronger than him, and he couldn’t be too complacent.

The upgrade of his bloodline was a benefit; the second boon was his Night Body skill.

This nearly bloodline-comparable special passive strengthening skill had demonstrated tremendous power during the emergence of the Evil Dragon King. The Lin sisters had been weakened by that power, but he was different.

Even though it was evil dark power, it was still a form of dark power. With his special constitution, he absorbed and purified this energy. The essence of the power was absorbed by him, enhancing the strength of his Night Body.

In such a short period, the dark power almost willingly infused itself into his body. Previously unnoticeable but now that the sisters had recovered, Du You had time to observe and discovered his Night Body had once again surpassed his level. The skill had risen from level 40 to 45.

If he had that level of Night Body before, no, even if it had increased by one level, he wouldn’t have been so passive against the Holy Dragon King; he could even have had an overwhelming advantage.

Forget it, why bother with so much, it is good enough to have the benefits.

"Master, do we have anything else to accomplish here?" Lin Yucha asked as she recovered enough to speak.

Du You shook his head, "No, let’s head back; our work here is done. Next, we’ll construct this thing, and then wait to advance." Du You didn’t elaborate since there were too many Professionals nearby.

He didn’t want to provoke an attack from these Professionals because of some matters. The Lin sisters nodded, and then Du You chose to leave. The inter-world transportation channel immediately enveloped the three of them and took them away from this world.

However, after returning, Du You discovered, perhaps due to the final erosion of the dark powers of the Evil Dragon King, that the aura of the Other World’s laws was extremely dense on all three of them. He estimated that it would take a week to purge the law’s aura from his fifth-tier body, thereby allowing him to enter other worlds.

Keep in mind, if counting only the time spent in Arena World, it hadn’t even been half a day. This update ıs available on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵·𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮·𝓷𝓮𝓽

Well, consider it a rest then. Aside from the blueprints and the advancement of two skills within himself, he had gotten nothing from this trip. The Lin sisters had weakened their bodies for a while, gaining no benefits at all.

Once home, Du You called Shaliya over and handed her the blueprint.

"Take this and start construction. Refine the black Crystal Coins as soon as possible. Our territory might not be long before it’s qualified to upgrade to the sixth tier, and then our strength will be even stronger," he said.

"Don’t worry, I will start right away. But the matter of the Crystal Coins still needs your preparation," she replied.

"That’s not a concern. Ordinary Crystal Coins abound here with me," Du You said confidently. After all, he had obtained so many useless materials and equipment recently, and selling them would yield a large sum of Crystal Coins.

After Shaliya left, Du You enjoyed a leisurely time at home once more. It was then that he realized that more than half of his second year had passed by, and he hadn’t spent much time at school.

Glancing at his wristwatch and the two notifications sent to him, he felt a wave of frustration.

"Master, what are you looking at?" Lin Yushi approached him and asked with a playful curiosity.

Du You shook his head, "Nothing much, just the final exams at the academy. But this time, I’m not involved." Indeed, the final exams had already begun, but there was clearly nothing for Du You to do there, as his strength was too formidable.
