Chapter 87 – Red Mythic-level Ancient City!

Amidst the vast expanse of ghostly mist, Ye Sheng soared through the air while contemplating his next move.

With his Combat Power now exceeding a thousand, he had reached an incredibly formidable level, likely finding no match within the 3rd Revolution Realm.

“My next step should be to Breakthrough to the 4th Revolution Ghost Sect Realm!” Ye Sheng thought.

If he continued to pursue 3rd Revolution equipment, it would have to be a full set of Red Mythic Tier Equipment.

But there was no need for that!

Breaking through to the 4th Revolution Ghost Sect Realm was the true path!

After reaching the 3rd Revolution, the gap between major realms was at least a thousandfold!

The difference between the 2nd and 3rd Revolutions was a Thousandfold Combat Power, allowing 3rd Revolution Experts to easily crush those at the 2nd Revolution.

The same applied to the 4th Revolution Ghost Sect Realm.

Its Base Combat Power was over a thousand times higher than that of the 3rd Revolution!

Thus, breaking through major realms was the true path!

If conditions allowed, there was no need to linger excessively within a single realm.

“But why have I never encountered even a single 3rd Revolution BOSS-level Ghost Creature in the Shadow City Secret Realm?”

Ye Sheng felt a headache coming on, along with some confusion.

The Yin Soldiers in the Shadow City Secret Realm were indeed powerful.

For instance, the Gold Tier Yin Soldiers in the Gold Tier Ancient City could achieve 300 times Combat Power!

This Combat Power was likely even more ferocious than that of a 3rd Revolution BOSS-level Ghost Creature.

But it was useless!

As everyone knew, Class Advancement Items could only be dropped by BOSS-level Ghost Creatures.

No matter how strong ordinary Ghost Creatures were, they would not drop Class Advancement Items.

This was decreed by the Supreme Rule.

What puzzled Ye Sheng was that he had already slaughtered quite a few ancient cities within the Shadow City Secret Realm.

He had seen countless Yin Soldiers and Ghost Generals,

but he had never encountered even a single 3rd Revolution BOSS-level Ghost Creature.

“How strange? Could it be that there are no BOSS-level Ghost Creatures in this Shadow City Secret Realm? How is that possible?”

Ye Sheng was somewhat perplexed and eager to find someone who understood the situation to ask.

…

Ye Sheng flew through the air at incredible speed, recklessly navigating the dense ghostly mist without fear of any danger.

With his current formidable Combat Power, he could afford to act without restraint!

Half a day later.

Ye Sheng came to a sudden stop, letting out a soft exclamation of surprise.

He looked ahead and saw faint, alluring crimson halos piercing through the thick ghostly mist in the distance.

The crimson glow was not intense, merely dyeing a large expanse of the gray ghostly mist ahead into a bewitching shade of red.

Seeing this hint of crimson, suspicion flickered in Ye Sheng’s eyes. “A crimson halo? Could there be a Mythic Tier Ancient City ahead? How is that possible?”

At this thought, Ye Sheng couldn’t help but feel a bit unsettled.

If there truly was a crimson ancient city ahead, then he had hit the jackpot.

A Red Mythic Tier Ancient City was a rare encounter, not something one could seek out!

It required extremely good luck to come across.

Once encountered, there was a high Probability of dropping Mythical-grade Equipment!

“Mythical-grade Equipment!”

Ye Sheng’s breathing hitched slightly.

Every piece of Mythical-grade Equipment was extremely valuable, especially since it couldn’t be bought even with money!

In terms of increasing Combat Power, a single piece of Mythical-grade Equipment could boost it by 100 times, far surpassing what Legendary Grade Equipment could offer.

It could be said that Mythical-grade Equipment were all treasures of immense value!

Whoosh!

Without further thought, Ye Sheng’s figure shot forward through the air in an instant, wanting to see what lay behind that thick ghostly mist.

Was it truly as he guessed—a Red Mythic Tier Ancient City?

…

Ye Sheng sped through the air, moving with incredible velocity!

In just a few breaths, he tore through layers of ghostly mist and emerged on the other side.

Then, his eyes lit up as he saw an ancient city.

The ancient city emanated a crimson glow throughout, resembling a bewitching red sun.

The Yin Soldiers and Ghost Generals within also radiated a crimson light, appearing quite enchanting.

Seeing this scene, Ye Sheng’s breathing quickened slightly.

It felt like winning the lottery, a sudden stroke of great fortune.

“It really is a Red Mythic Tier ancient city!” Ye Sheng found it unbelievable.

But then, he frowned.

“Someone has beaten me to it!”

Ye Sheng halted his steps and looked toward the crimson ancient city.

In the sky above the crimson city, a figure had already entered.

They were engaged in fierce combat with the Red Nether Soldiers below!

This figure was no ordinary person.

Those who dared to enter a Red Mythic Tier ancient city were all in the Invincible Realm!

“It’s Huang Wenyue!”

Ye Sheng frowned, recognizing this Invincible Realm cultivator at a glance.

Back when he was clearing the first Yin City, Ye Sheng had seen this person.

He had traveled alongside other Invincible Realm cultivators like Bai Zijian and Bai Ziwen, intending to enter the Shadow City Secret Realm.

When passing through the first Yin City, he had even taken action, unleashing a golden heavy sword light that annihilated most of the city’s Yin Soldiers, astonishing the tens of thousands of cultivators gathered before the first Yin City at the time.

Ye Sheng had watched it all, heard his name mentioned by those around him, and thus remembered it.

“I never expected to encounter him here again!”

Ye Sheng shook his head and strode toward the crimson ancient city.

As he drew closer, he could naturally see more clearly.

Inside the city at this moment, Huang Wenyue did not appear to be having an easy time.

Those Red Nether Soldiers all possessed 600 times combat power, each comparable to an Invincible Realm cultivator, and they were ferocious!

Coupled with the tide-like numbers of Yin Soldiers within the city, there were simply too many. Even an Invincible Realm cultivator would find it quite taxing to handle.

A single misstep could even be life-threatening.

Such was the case for Huang Wenyue.

With his 600 times combat power, he seemed to be struggling considerably.

Seeing this, Ye Sheng decided not to rush. He observed Huang Wenyue’s battle within the city, taking the opportunity to gauge the standards of these Invincible Realm cultivators.

“His attack power is average, just the standard 600 times combat power of an ordinary Invincible Realm cultivator!”

Ye Sheng watched and commented.

Huang Wenyue had a burly build, hovering in the sky above the crimson ancient city, continuously slashing with a golden heavy sword in his hand.

Mountain-like golden heavy sword phantoms descended one after another.

Such a formidable strike would have been devastatingly powerful in any other city.

But in this Red Mythic Tier ancient city, it seemed to fall flat!

The Red Nether Soldiers below were too strong, each possessing 600 times combat power. Though they sustained some damage, they quickly blocked Huang Wenyue’s attacks, rendering them ineffective.

Killing these Red Nether Soldiers appeared extremely difficult!

Boom!

Another golden heavy sword phantom descended.

This time, it surprised Ye Sheng.

With that single strike, a large number of Red Nether Soldiers were obliterated, bursting forth with equipment like raindrops.

“700 times attack power?”

Ye Sheng let out a soft exclamation, feeling he had somewhat underestimated Huang Wenyue.

Subsequently, Huang Wenyue occasionally erupted with 700 times attack power, sweeping away a group of Red Nether Soldiers and thus dropping equipment.

Although the efficiency of clearing the Red Nether Soldiers was somewhat slow, there was still some progress.

Ye Sheng watched and shook his head. While Huang Wenyue could unleash 700 times attack power, it seemed to be due to some secret technique.

It had a time limit!

He could only erupt with it once every so often.

“700 times attack power is his limit!”

Ye Sheng concluded.

But this combat power was still far stronger than the likes of Bai Zijian and Bai Ziwen.

“His defense is truly unique!”

Ye Sheng watched.

Huang Wenyue seemed exceptionally skilled in defense.

The reason he could hold out for so long in the Red Mythic Tier ancient city without being blasted out was entirely due to his defensive methods.

Around him, four massive golden shields slowly floated and rotated.

They blocked attacks coming from all directions.
