MMO: Pierce Heaven Til' It Breaks

Chapter 672: Natural Bloodstone

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The strongest individuals beneath the gods were the three human heroes.

Of these, Augustus usually stayed on Blade Peak, so very few ever saw him. The Holy Light Envoy, Elenor, was the hardest to find, as she was constantly wandering around the continent, spreading her Holy Light gospel.

As for Emperor Lan, many players in the past life had played Pantheon for eight years without ever seeing him. That just showed how mysterious this guy was.

Compared to the heroes from the other two factions, Emperor Lan was quite unpredictable. Some players did everything they could to increase his Affinity, but when he was happy, his Affinity could increase exponentially, and yet the slightest displeasure could easily plunge his Affinity down to nothing. Pleasing him definitely required a certain degree of skill.

It must be said that Li Yi had gotten lucky this time. He received 500 Affinity points as soon as they met, and the Blood Jade in his hand was a very good omen as well. Emperor Lan was exceedingly hard to find, so if a player found him when he was in a good mood, he would surely be carrying a rare item with him.

That was clearly what was happening here. There was no doubt about it; if Li Yi could just complete the quest he gave, he would definitely be able to obtain that item.

Ever since Li Yi inherited Cursing Sect Pope Shirui’s Heritage, his path in the game had changed as a result of it. Firstly, his Cursing Sect Outfit had been upgraded, and then he used the Cursed Secret Place’s special teleportation door to enter the depths of the Pantheon Ruins directly... These were all the benefits Li Yi received from the Cursing Sect Pope.

Of course, there was no such thing as a free lunch, and that applied to Li Yi’s receiving the Cursing Sect Pope’s Heritage. After giving Li Yi all these benefits, she had also asked Li Yi to do something she had not been able to accomplish.

That was to summon back the Evil God!

As the Evil God’s most loyal devotee, Shirui had spent her entire life trying to bring the Evil God back into this world.

Li Yi accepted the request, so he obtained an upgrade for his Cursing Sect Outfit as well as the right to enter the depths of the Pantheon Ruins directly. Naturally, the price was that he had to fulfill Shirui’s last wish.

Before Shirui died, she gave him a white-colored scroll. There was a faint figure drawn on it, with no clear facial features but a vague outline. Shirui told him that this was the Evil God’s true form, and all he had to do was gather the materials to complete this Evil God Summoning Scroll.

There was no time limit to complete the Evil God Summoning Scroll, so he could do the quest whenever he felt like it. However, he personally anticipated the arrival of the Evil God, which was why he was here at the North Pole Continent to gather Ice Soul Beads.

Right now, the Evil God Summoning Scroll in Li Yi’s hands was only 3% complete (Pope Shirui was just too useless, working all her life and only accomplishing so little). His current goal was to collect 100 Ice Soul Beads.

Li Yi had initially planned to buy the 100 Ice Soul Beads from the Auction House, but he searched for a few days and found that there was no stock. That was why he came here instead.

“Your Holiness Emperor Lan, that thing you’re holding is...”

Li Yi pointed at the bloodstone in Emperor Lan’s hand.

“Haha, this is a Natural Bloodstone I found here by coincidence. It’s great for making weapons.”

Emperor Lan looked at Li Yi and said with a laugh. “My young friend, do you want this stone?”

Li Yi nodded.

Emperor Lan threw the bloodstone at him.

Just like that? Without even a quest?

Li Yi was stunned.

Emperor Lan was truly eccentric. He did everything according to his mood.

“My young friend, is there anything else?”

Li Yi stepped forth and opened up Emperor Lan’s shop menu.

The main reason he searched Emperor Lan out was to stock up on scrolls.

Li Yi bought the three types of scrolls over and over again for an entire day without ever once leaving Emperor Lan’s side.

The next day, Li Yi logged on and wanted to buy more scrolls, but Emperor Lan was already gone. Unlike last time, this time he left without even leaving a clue.

At noon, Autumn Love sent him a message. “Brother Dark Wing, the Glacier Giant King respawned!”

“I’ll be there ASAP!”

Li Yi’s spirits lifted and he ran to the basin as quickly as he could manage.

“Hraah... Hraah...”

There were Glacier Giants all over the basin. They had clearly respawned.

“Brother Dark Wing, remember to save me. I’m underneath the Glacier Giant King...”

Li Yi dashed all the way to the depths of the basin and found that the Glacier Giant King was sitting on Autumn Love, who was long dead.

Ever since Autumn Love obtained the title of Shameless, her punishments for resurrecting were much harsher than the average player’s. If she was extremely unlucky, she may even permanently lose Attribute points. As such, she did not dare to release her soul.

Li Yi spent a great deal of time and energy to lure the Glacier Giant King away, then he used the Cardiac Pacemaker to save Autumn Love.

“You’re such a nice guy, Brother Dark Wing. If you didn’t already have a girlfriend, I’d definitely be your girlfriend.”

“Don’t call me a nice guy, okay? Nice guys finish last. If you do it again, I’ll strip you naked right now. Also, I wouldn’t dare to have a girlfriend like you.”

The pair that Autumn Love called the “Golden Combination” set out on their mission again.

Li Yi cleared the monsters in the way, while Autumn Love stayed behind and skinned the monsters. They blazed a path through, leaving nothing behind...

As he fought the monsters, Li Yi asked, “Oh, right. What were you trying to tell me last time? Why do you need money?”

Autumn Love was slightly taken aback, but then she lowered her head and continued skinning the corpses.

It was so rare for Black Autumn to fall silent that Li Yi could not help but be curious. However, he was putting all his energy into killing the monsters, so as long as Black Autumn did not offer an explanation, he could not stop and interrogate her either. As he continued to kill his way through, he put the matter at the back of his mind.

Li Yi cleared the monsters very quickly, and Autumn Love was not slow in skinning them either. Soon enough, every Glacier Giant monsterling around the basin was dead.

Li Yi counted his earnings and saw that he had obtained 10 Ice Soul Beads. That was a decent drop rate.

Autumn Love counted her earnings and laughed heartily for a long time before she held up a finger at Li Yi.

“If I sell all of this, that’s at least 1,000 Gold Coins!”

Li Yi was flabbergasted. “You’re a hard seller...

“You said you used to be pretty wealthy, right? You’ve invested more than ten million in your bets. I don’t get it at all. You work so hard for such a small amount, how is that worth it?”

As they were resting, Li Yi could not help but voice his questions.

“Of course it’s worth it, why wouldn’t it be? Baby steps. We can never have enough money, we only ever have not enough of it. Teehee, why don’t you guess how much the thirteen thousand Gold Coins you transferred to Winter has become now?”

“How much?”

Autumn Love was over the moon. “Fifty-eight thousand Gold Coins!”

Li Yi held out his hand.

“What are you doing?”

“Getting my money back. You earned a ton, so shouldn’t you return my thirteen thousand?”

Autumn Love’s eyes sparked and she waved her hands. “Haha, I... I was bluffing, I was bluffing. Don’t take me seriously.”

Anyone could tell that the black chick was lying, but on the other hand, she was impressive in her own way. To think she could turn thirteen thousand into fifty-eight thousand from the distance, it just meant that she had a bright mind that not everyone could emulate.

“Look how scared you got. Forget fifty-eight thousand, even if you earned five hundred and eighty thousand, I still wouldn’t ask you for money.”

“Haha, I know you’re pulling my leg. Same here... haha...”

“Same my *ss. Do you have any idea how fake you sound?”

As the two of them chatted idly, Princess Huaiyu led her eleven helpers in a parade from the distance. It seemed they were headed straight for the basin.

“Oh no, someone’s coming!” Autumn Love gripped her Backpack anxiously.

“Wait here.”

Li Yi summoned his Holy Light Warhorse and arrived at the entrance to the basin in no time, standing in Princess Huaiyu’s way.

“Kill him!”

Before Li Yi could say anything, Princess Huaiyu gave an order and her eleven helpful helpers forced themselves to rush at him.

Within one minute, Li Yi had taken all of them down. Only Princess Huaiyu remained, and she had run away on her White-colored Chocobo.

“She asked you to help her fight, but she ran ahead. You guys died so many times, but not only was she not grateful, she even called you stupid. Just what are y’all after here?”

“Dark Wing, you can drop the act. You think you’re so much better than us just because you’re stronger?”

“Dark Wing, do you really think you’re all that? F*ck, if this was real life, I could kill you and it’d be as easy as squashing an ant!”

“F*ck you, we’re all Princess’ friends here, and we helped her willingly. How is that any of your business? What the hell are you saying?”

Li Yi’s words triggered a public outcry. Of Princess Huaiyu’s eleven helpful helpers, other than Shoot Until Daybreak who stayed quiet, the rest of them immediately cried foul, expressing their fury.

Li Yi tinted around and returned to the basin. Not long later, Princess Huaiyu’s eleven helpful helpers stood up again and cursed at Li Yi before retreating en-masse.

They did not admit it, but they knew perfectly well that no matter how hard they tried, they would be no match for the ridiculous opponent before them. Players with Territories had too large an advantage over those without.

The eleven helpful helpers ran back to Princess Huaiyu’s side, scolding Li Yi all the way. Only Shoot Until Daybreak stayed silent.

After holding it in for a long time, Shoot Until Daybreak finally had to ask. “Princess, you have a Territory too. Why didn’t you use it just now?”

“What do you mean by that?” Princess Huaiyu’s expression darkened.

“Ding!”

[The party leader, Princess Huaiyu, has asked Shoot Until Daybreak to leave the party.]

“Shoot Until Daybreak, I hate you!”

Princess Huaiyu left in a huff, and the ten helpful helpers were furious. Each of them launched an attack at him, and Shoot Until Daybreak was killed in a heartbeat.

“Go away, Princess doesn’t want to see you anymore.”

“F*ck you, how dare you scold Princess? You really f*cking piss me off!”

Shoot Until Daybreak stayed on the ground for a long time without getting up, until Li Yi finally came to him and woke him up with a Cardiac Pacemaker.

“Brother, there are plenty of women out there. Why do you have to go for a b*tch?”

Shoot Until Daybreak chuckled once. “You don’t get it. I really like Princess.”

Shoot Until Daybreak summoned a Blue-colored Dragon Whelp and flew in the opposite direction from where Princess Huaiyu had gone. This time, he was not pursuing Princess Huaiyu. Instead, he was going straight back to his country.

The basin fell quiet again, and soon enough, the Glacier Giant monsterlings respawned again.

Princess Huaiyu and her ten helpers kept wandering around outside the basin, but because Li Yi was there, they did not dare to take another step into the basin.

Three days passed in a flash, and it seemed that Li Yi was decently lucky sometimes. He finally managed to collect 100 Ice Soul Beads.

Li Yi avoided Autumn Love and flew to a place where there was no one else around. He spread the Evil God Summoning Scroll onto the floor and placed the 100 Ice Soul Beads on it.

“The Evil God’s Glorious Light will illuminate the world!”

Li Yi threw his arms wide open and muttered the incantation...

The faint silhouette on the scroll glowed slightly, its light intersecting with that of the 100 Ice Soul Beads. About five minutes later, the 100 Ice Soul Beads had been completely absorbed into the scroll.

The Evil God Summoning Scroll was now 4% complete!
