Chapter 456: Dark Imprisonment
As soon as Zhang Mu took out these three things, the Ginseng King understood what Zhang Mu wanted to do.
This human actually wants to advance to third-rank right under their nose.
With a sneer in his eyes, the Ginseng King’s power began to explode, rapidly wearing down the Soul Phoenix’s power.
Every second counts, Zhang Mu seized the two large second-rank spirit elemental crystals and Sharira, forcibly attracting their power with his own mental strength.
The two spirit elemental crystals were like being magnetically attracted, slowly infusing pure mental power into Zhang Mu’s mind as Sharira rotated above his head.
Boom!
Zhang Mu lost control of his body and fell straight to the ground.
“If it were so easy to enter the third rank, it would be really strange.”
Ginseng King looked at the fallen Zhang Mu with a disdainful expression, thinking that Hachikuju’s recent promotion was just luck, and now Zhang Mu wanting to imitate him was like a silly dream.
Yuan Rui looked worried, but she couldn’t afford to focus on Zhang Mu now. She could see that Ginseng King’s control over him was weakening.
Even though Soul Phoenix had given up her power to judge and was fully focused on controlling Ginseng King, they were still at different levels and wouldn’t last long.
“Why bother persisting, young girl? Your attacks are useless against me now, only delaying the inevitable.
When I break free, the backlash of my power won’t be a joke. If you’re not careful, you’ll end up a fool. It would be a shame to waste such a wonderful human vessel. I feel sorry for you.”
Yuan Rui glared at him angrily, witnessing all of Ginseng King’s actions. Because of him, many people had died, and almost the entire Ordos City was destroyed by him.
“I won’t let you succeed. Once my uncle wakes up, you’re finished.”
Ginseng King seemed indifferent, saying to Yuan Rui, “Finished? Even Grave Blood would fear me. Even if Zhang Mu lucked into the third rank, he is just starting out. What can he do against me?”
Looking at Zhang Mu lying on the ground again, Ginseng King smirked, then regained his composure.
“Look at him now, how likely do you think he can reach third-rank?”
If it weren’t for my thousand years of accumulation, absorbing the very thin spirit qi in the deep mountains and old forests, and devouring all the medicinal power around me after the apocalypse, I wouldn’t have been able to achieve this.
Even so, it was almost by chance that I was able to break through.”
Hearing Ginseng King’s words, Yuan Rui’s eyes became more anxious, biting her lip without speaking. Being a second-rank evolver herself, she knew how difficult it was to reach third-rank.
She hadn’t even touched the barrier that Zhang Mu mentioned before. She hadn’t even touched the threshold of third-rank. Now, with the Ginseng King in front of her saying that Zhang Mu’s approach was a dead end, she couldn’t help but feel nervous.
With a slight hesitation in her mind, the restraint on Ginseng King loosened slightly. When Yuan Rui realized and tried to strengthen the binding of Soul Phoenix again, she found that due to her momentary distraction, the signs of collapse were becoming more serious.
Ginseng King’s face showed a triumphant look, his promotion of Zhang Mu was not as calm as it seemed on the surface. Especially after seeing what Zhang Mu took out, the uncontrollable flicker of passion and greed in his eyes couldn’t be concealed.
The two spiritual elemental crystals didn’t mean much to him now, but the one in the middle, resembling an elemental crystal but completely different from it, truly caught all his attention.
For the first time, he wanted an elemental crystal so badly, just like when he felt Zhang Mu’s original aura in the past, it was filled with deadly temptation to him.
That’s why he confused Yuan Rui with his words, as long as he broke free, he could easily take Zhang Mu’s life, and then the strange elemental crystal would belong to his Ginseng King.
In terms of its attraction to him, Zhang Mu’s servant status was no longer important. It would be great to control him, but if not, killing him would be fine.
“Have you thought about it? I promise, if you release the restraints now, I can guarantee the safety of you and your sweetheart, let you join my clan, enjoy immortal life without becoming those decaying corpses, completely different from the corpse puppets created by Grave Blood.”
The offer from Ginseng King sounded very tempting, but Yuan Rui didn’t care what he was saying at all, she concentrated all her thoughts on the restraints set by Zhang Mu before he fell unconscious.
So no matter what Ginseng King said, she didn’t let her guard down, as if she heard nothing.
Sensing Yuan Rui’s focused mind, Ginseng King stopped talking and fell into silence, then concentrated on battling the mysterious Soul Phoenix.
It’s worth mentioning that the Soul Phoenix was indeed difficult to deal with. When it stopped exerting judgment, the power of the restraints prolonged the time exponentially. Fortunately, the human woman in front of him was only second-rank. If she were third-rank, he might have encountered a tough opponent.
The only thought in Ginseng King’s mind now was to break free from the restraints as soon as possible, forcibly control Zhang Mu, kill the human woman, take her soul, and finally taste the delicacy of that thing.
He looked at the Sharira hovering over Zhang Mu’s head lying on the ground, and his body, which was starting to regain some consciousness, moved slightly, with a slight smile on his lips.
This thing being used by this human Zhang Mu is really a waste.
After falling into a coma, Zhang Mu found himself in a dark prison cell, with water constantly flooding in, soaking his ankles, and as time passed, it had already reached his waist.
“Where exactly is this place?”
Zhang Mu in the prison cell tried various methods, but could not break free from the cell, only able to watch as the water kept rising.
He had a feeling that if the water completely filled the entire prison cell and he was still inside, he might be forever trapped there.
Boom!
Tirelessly, he pounded on the hard prison cell, but it was still futile.
The heavy water had already reached his chest, making it difficult for him to breathe.
This water isn’t normal water. Normally, ordinary people wouldn’t feel such a great sense of pain when entering the water, let alone Zhang Mu, who is a second-rankevolver.
However, it did give Zhang Mu a huge sense of pressure. The density of this water is astonishingly large!
