Chapter 367 Speedrun, 1st place on the 2nd World Ranking!
Once the 10-minute exploration period ends, the Super Dungeon event will officially begin!
All the contestants scattered like ants, beginning to hunt down the lonely souls left behind in this place.
The participants on Blue Star felt at ease, not needing to worry about the machinations of the Xuan Tian Ming Fu cultivators, because Shen Yun's white fox was monitoring them from the sky.
What reassured them even more was that if they discovered a powerful lone spirit and were no match for it, the white fox would simply lower the cage to bind the powerful ghost!
Of course, forget about ghost points; those are definitely Shen Yun's.
But no one would be unhappy, because thanks to White Fox's actions, their lives were guaranteed!
Even if they encounter cultivators from the Xuan Tian Realm's Underworld, they will not clash with them.
This spurred all the Blue Star contestants to take the lead, eager to accumulate more points to exchange for dungeon treasure chests.
On the dungeon leaderboard, Shen Yun's points were so high that even the opposing Underworld Quasi-Emperor was questioning his existence:
[Two Realms Points Ranking:]
[Shen Yun, ranked number one: 57,627 points (increasing...)]
[Rank 1, Lord Yama: 3628 (Increasing...)]
"Hiss! More than 40,000 short?! That shouldn't be!" The Lord of the Underworld frowned deeply.
Powerful beings like them don't need to personally explore the Netherworld Continent; they only need to send out their divine sense to investigate. Once they find the target, the soul chains can suppress the ghost.
Regardless of whether Shen Yun or Bai Xian'er are both Great Saints, even if they have extraordinary talents in their souls, their combined score shouldn't be so much higher than his!
Suddenly, something occurred to him:
'Perhaps only items from the source realm can achieve this effect…'
He understood the origin of it; in the words of the person behind it all, it was a cheat code!
It can help the bound cultivator escape danger.
It can also help them improve rapidly on their cultivation path!
Based on the information gathered, Shen Yun could not possibly have much Origin, but he must have obtained quite a few Origin items.
Because he is the strongest behind-the-scenes man!
They will have access to far more advanced things than others, and will receive greater rewards.
This is the benefit of the strong, and it applies everywhere.
He guessed correctly.
Because at this moment, Shen Yun is using the VIP9 level privilege: one-click detection of dungeon runs!
He only needed to probe one area to capture the hidden ghosts—the efficiency was ridiculously fast. In just a short while, his points had already reached 10!
As expected, when the event ended, Blue Star, with Shen Yun present, won a great victory and directly seized control of this super dungeon, "Two Realms Connecting to the Underworld".
Shen Yun has firmly secured the top spot on the leaderboard.
When everyone returned to reality, a series of notifications sounded on the game interface:
[Ding! Congratulations to Blue Star for achieving victory in the dungeon! All players have received the blessing of Netherworld Luck: Yin attribute affinity +35%, Yin attribute magic items, techniques, etc., gain a 45% power boost!]
[Reward 2: Players who participate in the event will receive an exclusive talent: [Summoning a God]!]
[Reward 3: Everyone receives 1 Dungeon Points Chest! (Can be collected with a thought)]
[Reward 4: All participants from the winning team will be eligible for the [Working Together in the Immortal Realm] quest! There's a chance to receive side quests from the [Immortal Realm Faction - Underworld], leading to generous rewards. (Note: Those serving in the Underworld on Blue Star have a high chance of receiving these quests. Players and cultivators are encouraged to participate in Underworld job recruitment.)]
[Rewards from the Blue Star Underworld...]
A series of prompts excited the players:
"Haha, I got it for free! Awesome!!!"
"If I went to the Immortal Realm to do missions, every reward I gave would be a celestial artifact! Hahahaha!"
Those who didn't participate were filled with regret upon learning that entering the instance was a guaranteed win, with some even slapping themselves in anger.
"Damn it! I told you to trust Boss Shen! You all insisted on not going, and now look what happened, we didn't get a single penny!!"
"I'm a pig! Why did I chicken out! Why did I chicken out!!!"
……
"Brother Yun, quickly check what rewards are in the treasure chest!" After returning home, Bai Xian'er watched Shen Yun take out the treasure chest with an expectant look on her face:
"Hey, there's bound to be a lot of good stuff!"
She also likes to collect treasures; the area around the baby monster's nest is full of treasures that she has carefully arranged.
Just glancing at it during my daily practice makes me feel much better.
"Let's take a look first." Shen Yun smiled and reached out to unlock the treasure chest.
Then a series of prompts popped up:
[Title: Ghost-Catching Maniac Card (Unique): An exclusive title for the player with the highest score in the Two Realms Dungeon! Effect: Naturally suppresses ghost-like beings, causing them to tremble and reducing their strength by 80%. Extremely oppressive to soul-type cultivators, and can also reduce their soul-type damage by 65%!]
[Immortal Realm Collaboration - Senator's Order (Unique): The holder of this token may directly enter the Immortal Realm's Underworld and serve as an honorary senator. Effect: A special position in the Underworld, exempt from the control of the Underworld's higher-ups and immune to harm from powerful Underworld figures.]
[Soul Max Level Card *3: After use, your Soul will reach the maximum level of Rank 12!]
[Skill Max Level Card *1: Instantly max out any skill below Emperor Rank! (Recommended for use on Emperor Rank manuals, granting unparalleled combat power within the same rank and the ability to challenge higher realms)]
[The Netherworld Emperor's Ultimate Technique - Netherworld Emperor Scripture *1, Super Treasure Map *2, Monster Skill Book *2, 1000 Billion Low-Grade Spirit Stones, Magic Treasures...]
The following content wasn't very interesting, and Shen Yun only skimmed through it:
"The reward is so-so."
For him, only the Ghost Catcher and Treasure Map are somewhat useful; the others are just average.
But that only applies to him; for other players, every reward would be top-tier.
For example, a combination of max-level Divine Soul and max-level Skill cards with the Netherworld Emperor Scripture is a great combination.
Shen Yun first looked at the monster skill book:
[Advanced Resurrection Spell: After death, any part of the corpse can be resurrected at any time. Cooldown: 5 days.]
[Advanced Mirror Image: After eliminating a target, the corpse can be briefly activated, unleashing the user's peak combat power to assist in the battle!]
"Xian'er, these two skill books are pretty good!" Shen Yun handed the skill books directly to Bai Xian'er.
Xian'er does have a high-level resurrection skill, but it has a cooldown of one thousand years.
Because this skill allows one to be resurrected even if their bones are reduced to ashes and their soul is annihilated!
Unlike the Resurrection Technique, it allows one to be resurrected at any time as long as the body remains.
The combination of the two skills greatly enhances her ability to survive.
As for "Mirror Flower Water Moon," it's also very useful. After defeating a powerful opponent, you can still control the corpse to fight, similar to puppet control, which is quite practical.
"And this too, the Soul Max Level Card! You can use the Skill Max Level Card as well. Once I learn the Netherworld Emperor Scripture, you can learn it too and max it out!"
His divine soul is already at the maximum level, but Xian'er isn't yet, so it's a good time to level it up.
As for the skill max-level card, it's only a matter of time before he reaches max level with the Heavenly Blessing that comes with VIP9. So he might as well give it to Xian'er so she can use the Emperor's Scripture to improve her combat power.
