Chapter 961 - Dark Demon King (1/2)

Seven years ago, Nirvana Flame gathered these players together, then led them to the summit, sweeping through all opposition.

The glory of the Mad Rogue was still vivid in their minds as it was three years ago.

At this moment, they recalled Nirvana Flame had recently returned to game. It was just that no one knew in what corner of the game he was off levelling in!

Would Nirvana Flame return to the apex and lead Bladelight and the others in defeating Fallen Angel?

While the spectators were lost in thought, Warlance was suspensefully defeated by Bladelight.

As Bladelight walked down from the stage, Tang Yao walked up with a wide grin. “It’s finally my turn!” He locked eyes with Godking on the other side.

There were only two more representatives left on Fallen Angel’s side. Godking, and after him Plenty. The first nine were only the appetizer. Asskickers United’s remaining nine players were itching to test their skills. They wanted to see just how strong the Chairman of the Dark Council was!

Tang Yao versus Godking. Nie Yan was fairly confident in Tang Yao’s skills. Although Godking was a veteran expert who was one of the first to become a Gold Wing, Tang Yao was equally if not more unfathomable. As a Level 206 Magister with a full set of Chaos gear, he held a 60%-victory rate against the other peak experts in Asskickers United.

Though the position of number one expert in the Righteous Faction had been left vacant ever since his departure from the game, even Nie Yan wouldn’t have any objects if Tang Yao were to take his place.

Godking’s chances of winning were basically nill.

Nie Yan shifted his attention away from the livestream. He returned to diligently picking up the loot off the ground, acquiring a stunning amount of Ancient Ores and Deceased Skulls. Thankfully, he had plenty of bag space. The bags he was using were 1,000-slot bags he’d obtained from the guild treasury. He had five altogether. The same ores and skulls could be stacked together, with 20 making a full stack. So, even though he’d collected more than 200 ores and 1,000 skulls, he still had plenty of space left.

After circling around a mountain of bones, Nie Yan spotted an enormous figure roaming the plains in the distance.

Standings over 30 meters tall, the creature resembled a primordial demon from the distant past. It was a skeletal monster with a long tail, sharp spines growing all over its body. Its eye sockets blazed with crimson flames which pulsed around non-stop, like a pair of headlights.

Dark Demon King (Demonified Lord): Level 200

Nie Yan sucked in a breath of cold air. He didn’t expect to encounter a Level 200 Demonified Lord here! Starting from Level 180, monsters became exponentially stronger every 10 levels. A Level 180 Lord and Level 200 Lord shouldn't even be compared in the same breath.

With Nie Yan’s current strength, he would die to the Dark Demon King if he were discovered.

The Dark Demon King seemed to vaguely sense something and looked over in Nie Yan’s direction.

Nie Yan hurriedly had the Divine Eclipse Dragon hide behind a large pile of bones. He himself held his breath, deathly afraid to budge an inch.

Nie Yan could sense the Dark Demon King’s gaze sweep over him from more than 300 meters away. Thankfully, it didn’t appear to have discovered him. It bent down, grabbed a handful of undead and shoved them into its mouth.

The countless undead were like helpless fowl as they went straight into the Dark Demon King’s stomach.

Even from this distance, Nie Yan could feel the ground shaking from every step the Dark Demon King took.

What a frightening existence!

The Dark Demon King was slowly moving towards Nie Yan’s hiding place. If it got any closer, it would discover him.

Nie Yan had an idea. He summoned his shadow clone, then had it dash off into the distance with Gale Step.

The Dark Demon King was just about to devour another handful of undead, when something caught its attention. The crimson flames in its eye sockets pulsed. It quickly locked onto the fleeing silhouette of the shadow clone. A piercing roar resounded through the surroundings as it gave chase.

Nie Yan breathed a sigh of relief. His plan worked. He quickly left before the Dark Demon King would be back.

Before hitting Level 190, Nie Yan felt he wouldn’t stand a chance versus the Dark Demon King.

Nie Yan checked the skills in the Glimpse of Darkness. The very last one he could unlock was a Legendary skill called Sanguine Tide. To unlock it, he first had to max out the three skills he already obtained, and then meet the kill count requirements for it. He couldn’t help but wonder what kind of skill it was.

A Legendary skill certainly wouldn’t be lacking!

Unlocking Sanguine Tide required him to kill 200,000,000 dark creatures. This figure was a bit daunting. The previous three skills he obtained would require him to kill 300,000,000 dark creatures to max out. He wouldn’t be reaching this goal of 500,000,000 any time soon. However, extending his stay in Hell wasn’t out of the question.

Nie Yan decided to avoid the area he found the Dark Demon King in. This land of death was massive anyway. He could always explore in a different direction.
