Chapter 399: Absorbing Against the Heavens (750 Monthly Tickets)
“You guys have no credibility.” Little Cold Hands said loudly.
“Credibility, what’s that, haha, you can only me this guy for being too arrogant and overestimating himself.” A goblin masterughed heartily.
“Bastards, without the master, you couldn’t even open this door.” Little Cold Hands was extremely indignant.
“You little maid, what do you know? If you keep bbering, I’ll kill you.”
“This is the end of arrogance, what a joke, and in the end, we are the ones still standing.”
No one sympathized with Li Yao. The masters looked on with faces of indifference, ridicule, and excitement about the forting treasure.
“Stop talking, let’s open the door.”
“What are you waiting for? Push the door.”
Following the masters’ orders, dozens of melee yers went to push the door, and four anxious masters alsomanded their own monsters or puppets to push the door.
In reality, they were striving for viable positions to rush in first to pick the best items.
“All together, push.”<div>
In a tense atmosphere, everyone together pushed the huge stone gate.
Crack…
As the stone gate creaked, the hearts of people behind it were in their mouths, stretching their necks to see what good things were inside.
However, the stone gate only opened a slit, and screams suddenly emerged from near the door.
Everyone turned their heads to see that ayer of ck air was enveloping the people pushing the door.
These people screamed miserably, as did the yers.
“Save me, save me.”
A goblin who rode a monster frantically jumped off the beast and ran toward the crowd.
The behemoth behind him let out a roar of extreme pain and fell to the ground with a thud.
The crowd gasped, and the masters scrambled to escape.
“Don’t drag us down with you if you want to die.”
“Save me…”
This master fell to the ground, and the ck air on his body became more intense, and then he stopped screaming altogether.
It was silent at the door, everyone watched these people being corroded by the ck air until they disappeared.
Everyone was left a little shaken, and some masters were even more terrified because they were also considering pushing the door themselves but were held back by theirpanions. Otherwise, they would have been among the disappeared.
The only difference this time was that the ck air didn’tpletely dissipate but began to converge in one direction, forming a huge ck cloud.
“It’s that arrogant guy, he’s actually still alive.”
As one goblin eximed in surprise, everyone looked in Li Yao’s direction.
After Li Yao was enveloped by the ck air, they stopped paying attention to this side. In their view, Li Yao was already a deceased, and they certainly wouldn’t pay attention to a dead person.<div>
Under the allure of the treasure, they all focused on the gate; then, something unexpected happened.
At this point, they noticed that Li Yao, who should have disappeared, was still standing upright.
Even though he was enveloped in ck air, they could faintly see that his figure was still intact.
Only at this moment did they realize that so far, Li Yao had not screamed like the others.<div>
However, the ck air was too terrifying, and they could only dare to watch from a distance. As for getting closer, they would rather die than attempt it. Even now, they didn’t know the origin of the ck air.
On the other hand, Li Yao had never trusted these goblins from the beginning. If he were to rely on the credibility of the goblins, then there would be no difference between him and a fool.
Li Yao’s reliance was very simple, which was the Time Trace of the golden ring. Even if he was enveloped by the ck air, he wouldn’t die instantly, but would be corroded by the ck air. He saw it very clearly; the corrosion was ording to a certain ratio of life, and it took a few seconds at least.
This gave him a bit of leeway. Even if they betrayed him, with Time Trace, Li Yao had enough to save his life.
When the female goblin ordered the yers to stop linking, Li Yao was enveloped by the ck air. Li Yao observed the ck air and found out it indeed was the power of the ancient god, and was getting ready to use Time Trace.
But he found that the Touch of Darkness on his arm suddenly activated, stretching out countless tendrils and absorbing the ck air. The bead constrained by the tendrils was also not to be outdone and started absorbing the power of the ck air.
Li Yao only had about half of his life remaining, but under the effect of the Touch of Darkness, his life was replenished instantly.
Moreover, the indescribable pain also disappeared, and with the disappearance of the ck air, manyplicated pieces of information were also transmitted into Li Yao’s mind.
Li Yao then used his spiritual power to quickly absorb this fleeting information. This kind of information wasn’t instilled forcefully, it was like a slide show, and also very messy. If he couldn’t remember it, it would disappear in the future.
Li Yao didn’t want to miss this valuable information. Later, some images appeared that seemed to be sped up many times. Li Yao could only barely remember these images by mobilizing all his spiritual power. He would analyze this information once he was calm and settled.
During this time, the masters were also opening the door, which gave Li Yao time.
“Damn it, we’re all partners. It took me a hard time to understand the seal and stockpile power, and you two actually jointly stole my power. This is the second time, and I will remember you.”
A phantom voice sounded in Li Yao’s mind, then the effect of the Touch of Darkness disappeared.<div>
“System: The Touch of Darkness absorbs the power of the Ancient God’s Avatar and gains the effects of Dark Protection, Shadow Tentacles, and Faceless Apostle.”
Dark Protection: Decreases all dark series spell damage by 90%, immune to dark series control effects, duration two days.

Each time a life force is absorbed, the duration is extended by one minute. 3/3, and an aditional summoning amount is replenished every 30 minutes. Skill duration is ten days.
Faceless Apostle: Summons a faceless apostle to fight for the owner. The faceless apostle corpse bes a high-level boss of the same level as the summoner, duration 20 minutes, cooldown time six hours. Skill duration is ten days.
“Life deprivation is indeed powerful. What is the origin of the Touch of Darkness? And what would be the effect if the three of them werebined?” Li Yao was stunned after seeing the three skills.
The Touch of Darkness was surprisingly powerful. He decided to inquire about the whereabouts of the other parts of the Touch of Darkness from the Queen when he returned.
The ck air gradually faded, but there was still a faintyer of ck mist around Li Yao’s body, especially his arms, which looked like countless intertwined tentacles. His eyes also turned incredibly evil.
“True friends indeed.” Li Yao scanned the masters.
All of the masters who made eye contact with Li Yao involuntarily stepped back and hid behind the yers.
“I want to ask onest time, do you still want to enter this gate?”
After hearing Li Yao’s words, the masters looked at each other.
“Of course, we do. That incident just now was an ident, not our intention.” A master hastily replied.
“That’s good. I can open the gate for you but before that, I have one requirement. If you don’t agree to it, then none of you will be able to enter this gate.” Li Yao said coldly.<div>
“Go ahead, go ahead.” Now the masters were also helpless. Seeing the ck air hovering around Li Yao, they didn’t dare go near him.
“Very well.” Li Yao pointed at the female goblin and said, “I saved her once, and she repaid me by harming me multiple times. If I don’t kill her, everyone will think I’m easy to bully. I want to duel her to the death, and you all can bear witness.”
The female goblin was stunned and then reacted with horror written all over her face…n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
