Chapter 316: Chapter 278: Reincarnation Elixir!_2

“Go back to the corporation to rest? Or is there something else on your mind?” Qian Rushan asked.

“…I want to go the zoo,” Shen Ye said.

Qian Rushan looked at him a few times, then slapped his forehead and sighed, “That’s right, you’re still a child.”

“Forget it, let’s not go,” Shen Ye added.

Qian Rushan stared at him.

Shen Ye scratched his head, thinking that going to the zoo was meaningless.

He did indeed want to see Tie Nan.

But talking to a panda in a zoo, and the panda had to play dumb—that was not interesting at all.

“President Qian, could you help me buy twenty bundles of tender bamboo shoots at the Panda Hall in the zoo, the most expensive kind.”

“When you feed them, say that they are from Tie Nan’s brother.”

“…Are you sure?” Qian Rushan asked.

Shen Ye had already picked up his phone, transferring two thousand out of his ten billion World Currency to him.

“Alright, I’ll have someone handle it.”

“Thanks, I’d like to go back to the corporation building now and rest in a room.”

“No problem.”

Several dozen minutes later.

As soon as Shen Ye entered the room and threw himself onto the large bed, the voice of the Spirit of Destiny’s Seal immediately rang out in his ear:

“The situation is very severe.”

“What happened?” Shen Ye asked.

“When humans venture deep into the Great Tomb, it consumes the power of the Seal. Once the Seal’s power is insufficient, it will draw strength from me. If it depletes my strength entirely, the insects will break through the Seal,” the Sealing Art Spirit said.

Shen Ye nodded slightly.

— This was exactly the insects’ intention.

However, the insects’ propaganda had already spread. If he were to forcefully stop it now, he couldn’t keep everyone from venturing down into the Great Tomb Below.

“Should I mention this to the teacher?” Shen Ye asked.

“Actually, in this situation, you can’t stop those greedy people. They will always find a way, even if it means risking their lives, to go down in search of treasures,”

the Technique Spirit continued:

“You just need to be ahead of them—that’s all. By leading the way, you can control the Sealing Power, preventing it from leaking out.”

“What should I do exactly?” Shen Ye asked.

“Do this.”

A waist badge was tossed over.

Shen Ye caught it and saw a few words engraved on the badge:

“Granted Entry for Trial.”

The woman spoke, “This is the waist badge of the Tomb Keepers. Holding it means you have become a Tomb Guard Soldier.”

“The Great Tomb is filled with slain enemies, unknown monsters, and foolish grave robbers. If you can overcome them, you will rise above the ranks of the ordinary Tomb Soldiers.”

“What’s the use of that?” Shen Ye asked.

“You can cultivate the power to guard the tomb, making the Seal of Fate increasingly solid—this will benefit you as well. Just try and you’ll see,”

she said.

“Alright then.”

Shen Ye patted the waist badge with his hand.

The badge flashed.

He was no longer in the room but standing at the depths of the Great Tomb, atop the giant sculpted finger.

“Head upwards,” the Technique Spirit instructed.

Shen Ye, invigorated, flew upwards.

After more than twenty minutes, he saw an entrance to a passage on the rock wall.

Shen Ye entered.

The torches in the cave instantly burst into flame.

The fierce firelight illuminated the surroundings.

There was nothing else in sight, only a giant sarcophagus.

The moment Shen Ye stepped in, the waist badge began to vibrate.

The sarcophagus, too, shook incessantly.

A voice emanated from within the sarcophagus:

“A delusional soldier? Excellent, I finally have some blood food to feast on…”

Boom!

The coffin lid opened.

A mass of black fog rose into the air, from which a gloomy voice emanated:

“Kill you!”

“Wait a minute,” Shen Ye hastily waved his hands and shouted, “What exactly are you?”

“Whispers of the Dark” activated!

“I am the Ten Thousand Years of Chilling Ice Demon,” the voice said.

“How can I defeat you?” Shen Ye asked again.

“Foolish boy, do you think I would tell you?” the voice said mockingly.

It didn’t speak.

Shen Ye, on the contrary, became delighted, even a smile appeared on his face:

“Go learn how to be human first.”

Whoosh——

The black fog disappeared.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

The black fog reappeared in the void, suddenly plummeting downwards and collapsing onto the ground, speaking feebly:

“There’s nothing I fear, except high temperatures. At high temperatures, my strength will significantly decrease.”

“What’s the most painful thing in your life?” Shen Ye curiously asked.

“…Get lost!” the black fog roared in anger.

“Teaching you how to be human,” Shen Ye said.

Whoosh——

The black fog disappeared again.

A few seconds later.

The black fog reappeared.

Lying on the ground and gasping for air, it moaned, “I’ll talk, I’ll talk——”

“I shouldn’t have provoked that world. Their strength was too overwhelming, and even now, I have not freed myself.”

Shen Ye nodded and asked, “Are you surrendering, or are you going to fight me?”

“Fight you, you’re so weak. If I win, at least I could get something to eat.”

The black fog struggled to its feet.

Shen Ye raised an eyebrow.

Fine.

So weak and still disdainful of others?

“Please tell me the method for making nuclear weapons,” Shen Ye said.

“What’s that?” the black fog asked, puzzled.

“Not telling? Go learn to be human,” Shen Ye commanded.

“Wait a minute—I just don’t know—” the black fog protested loudly.

“I’m not listening, I’m not listening!” Shen Ye covered his ears.

Whoosh——

This time a full seven or eight seconds passed.

“About seven or eight thousand years of torment?” the Skeleton whispered.

“That’s all,” Shen Ye nodded and replied.

The black fog appeared once more.

“Do you really want to fight me?” Shen Ye asked.

“I won’t fight! I won’t fight you! I surrender!” the black fog shouted frantically.

The waist badge vibrated.

Two new lines emerged on the badge:

“You have been promoted from the Reserve Tomb Soldier ranks, current position: Official Tomb Soldier.”

“Official Tomb Soldier enjoys a private room, access to the first level of the Great Tomb, salary of 1 Reincarnation Elixir per month.”

Shen Ye breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat beads off his forehead, saying:

“That was no easy battle, luckily I’m exceptionally clever, finding its weakness instantly, after a terrible struggle, I finally won.”
