505: Go down to the catacombs!

At this moment, Changtu County was still asleep.

At the entrance to the Permanent Dungeon’s light gate, there were only a few Military on duty.

They completely ignored the arrival of Shen Bei and Du Ziteng.

It wasn’t that they couldn’t see them, but rather they consciously stepped aside, not performing too many checks.

They didn’t even require registration.

Firstly, Shen Bei’s face could be used as an access card.

Secondly, the first camp in Changtu County’s Permanent Dungeon was called “Zha Tian Gang.”

It was equivalent to Shen Bei returning home.

Who registers when they go home?

After entering the Dungeon, he immediately felt a force pulling him in, followed by a sense of spatial displacement.

The scenery before Shen Bei’s eyes suddenly changed.

The first time he ambushed this Dungeon, this gourd-shaped terrain was a desolate patch of weeds.

Now, it had been replaced by various buildings.

Infrastructure maniacs, you are forever awesome!

The speed of construction was terrifyingly fast.

At the same time, on the surrounding mountains, the Military had used the terrain to build a large number of defensive facilities.

The most important of these were various “ballistas.”

Because gunpowder cannons of the technological side could not be used in the Dungeon, ballistas became particularly important.

When blocking the invasion of the Otherworlders to the earth's surface, in addition to cannonballs, ballistas also performed well.

Shen Bei had even tried to pull a ballista at that time.

It was indeed a bit difficult.

But now…

Shen Bei could pull a ballista with just one finger.

It could be said that he was no longer what he used to be.

“Quite a big change, isn’t it?”

Du Ziteng said with a hint of pride, hands on his hips.

Shen Bei retorted, “What are you proud of? Which brick did you lay?”

“I don’t like hearing that. Take it back.”

Du Ziteng snorted softly, “At least when it was first taken down, didn’t I participate?”

“Are you just resting on your laurels?”

“I wanted to go with you, but you wouldn’t take me.”

“Too dangerous,” Shen Bei said with a serious expression, “And you’re too weak.”

Du Ziteng: …

Damn it, is a Seventh Rank Martial Artist considered weak now?

That’s outrageous!

“If it’s dangerous, why do you still want to go deeper into the Dungeon?” Du Ziteng asked.

Shen Bei waved his hand, “What foolish talk. If there was no choice, I wouldn’t say anything. But now there is a choice. Should I shrink back from danger? That’s not my style!”

Du Ziteng had no idea that Shen Bei’s form collapse had reached a point where he had no choice but to take risks.

If he delayed any longer, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Then, Shen Bei pulled out the odd object mask and placed it on his face.

In Du Ziteng’s vision, Shen Bei’s appearance gradually transformed into an Otherworlder!

A complete Otherworlder, with every feature perfectly replicated!

“Holy crap!”

Du Ziteng had never witnessed Shen Bei in this form. If he hadn’t seen Shen Bei transform with his own eyes, he would have thought it was an Otherworlder raid!

“What the hell is this thing?” Du Ziteng demanded, eyes wide.

“A mask that can change one’s appearance,” Shen Bei said indifferently.

“No, no, no!”

Du Ziteng shook his head and affirmed, “It’s not that simple; even your Qi has changed!”

“Your brain still has some use.”

Du Ziteng: …

“Brother! Get me one!” Du Ziteng rubbed his hands, extremely excited.

The value of this thing was obvious to anyone who saw it!

Shen Bei shrugged, “It’s not something you can afford to play with.”

“Dad, Grandpa! Ancestor!”

Du Ziteng changed three titles in a row, “Don’t you think that excuse is a bit perfunctory?”

Shen Bei didn’t want to explain too much and said, “You know Zhuang Bifan, right? Go ask him what’s going on, and you’ll understand.”

Afterward, Shen Bei took out Bai Wei’s anchor river pebble.

His palm surged with True Qi, opening the anchor connection.

In an instant.

The blood vessels near Shen Bei’s eye sockets bulged unevenly, as if they were about to burst through his skin.

Du Ziteng watched, heart pounding, and exclaimed, “Holy crap!”

What the hell kind of spell was this!

It was a bit scary.

“I’m leaving,” Shen Bei said, leaving a single sentence.

Du Ziteng nodded. Although he didn’t know what Shen Bei’s “leaving” meant, he still said, “Take care!”

The next second, Shen Bei was instantly pulled, as if swallowed by an alien space, and disappeared from the spot!

Du Ziteng was startled. He could feel that Shen Bei hadn’t vanished into thin air, but rather his speed of advancement was so fast that the human eye couldn’t perceive him at all!

“My goodness, how strong is this guy? Wouldn’t that move send him hundreds of miles away?”

Du Ziteng shivered, “Freak! What a freak!”

Then, Du Ziteng ran out of the Dungeon. Once his phone had a signal, he contacted Zhuang Bifan, asking how to obtain the odd object mask.

Zhuang Bifan ranted, listing the backlash effects of the odd object mask, and exclaimed, “Only an idiot would use an odd object mask.”

Du Ziteng said, “Oh,” and understood. This thing really wasn’t something an ordinary person could mess with.

Du Ziteng then said, “I’ll tell Shen Bei later that you called him an idiot.”

Zhuang Bifan: …

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…

Shen Bei’s surroundings had already formed a distorted space under the acceleration of his speed.

In fact, Shen Bei even wondered if using the Instant Shadow Return to Origin Pact so recklessly was like dancing on the blade of spatial dimensions.

One careless mistake could lead him to fall into a spatial trap.

Shen Bei’s first landing was already two thousand kilometers away.

This distance was completely insufficient to reach the Dungeon’s Imperial City.

One could even say that he hadn’t covered even a tiny fraction of the journey.

One must know that it took Bai Wei and the other Martial Gods about half a year to travel to and from the Imperial City!

There was no need to doubt the speed of the Martial Gods; it was absolutely beyond Shen Bei’s reach.

He still had to continue his journey!

Accelerating his advance in this manner.

Three days later.

White Mountain!

It was neither the highest mountain in the Dungeon, nor the most perilous, nor the most beautiful. This was not a famous mountain; in fact, it was an extremely ordinary mountain.

Within the Dungeon, there were so many mountains like this that no one paid them any mind.

At this moment, on this mountain, before the dawn had arrived, two Otherworlders were climbing the mountain with lanterns.

One was a young man, with a sharp sword at his waist. He was considered handsome among Otherworlders.

The other was an Otherworlder girl, dressed in green, with a petite and delicate figure and a refined appearance. Because of the climb, a fine layer of sweat adorned her forehead, and her cheeks were flushed and pouty. She pouted and complained, “Second Brother, you tricked me into coming out just to climb this mountain late at night?”

The young man, named Bi Tuo, said, “Mu Mu, don’t rush. The sunrise at the top is the most beautiful. Didn’t you say you like sunrises the most? I brought you up to watch the sunrise.”

The girl’s long, charming eyelashes fluttered over her large eyes. She opened her mouth and said, “Second Brother, how could you be so kind? Isn’t it because you’re afraid of Father’s punishment for leaving the Imperial City, so you dragged me along? With me in front of you, Father won’t punish you too severely then.”

“Our Mu Mu is simply brilliant,” Bi Tuo flattered, giving the girl a thumbs-up. “Who told Father to spoil you the most? If I left the Imperial City alone, I would definitely be beaten black and blue, but if I say I’m accompanying you out of the capital, at most Father will just lecture me a few times.”

The girl pursed her delicate, lustrous red lips and said, “But… Second Brother, why did you bring me here? I don’t believe you’re really that kind, bringing me to watch the sunrise. If you don’t tell me the truth, I’ll go back and tell Dad that you forced me out of the Imperial City.”

Bi Tuo, startled, quickly said, “Good sister, you can’t harm your Second Brother like that. I came here to find something good.”

“Something good?” The girl was stunned, looking at Bi Tuo in disbelief, “What could possibly be here besides rocks and plants?”

Bi Tuo then said proudly, “You know what your Second Brother does…”

Mu Mu interjected, “Manages miscellaneous items.”

Bi Tuo’s face stiffened, then he angrily corrected her, almost collapsing, “I’m a Night Watcher’s archivist!”

“Isn’t that the same? There are so many archivists, and you’re responsible for managing those long-sealed, years-old, meaningless archives. Not even dogs look at those archives; you’re not even as good as a miscellaneous items manager.”

Bi Tuo, exasperated, looked at the girl and said, “Do you still want to know why I brought you here?”

Bi Mu Mu immediately closed her pink lips, her big eyes fixed on Bi Tuo.

Only then did Bi Tuo say, “Yes! The archives I manage are all long-sealed and don’t contain much content. Some are even just records of people’s daily lives. However, the more I read these archives, the more I discovered something.”

Bi Tuo, at this point, became proud of his own intelligence again. He paused and continued, “There’s a secret about the Seven-Colored Divine Radiance here.”

This sentence made Bi Mu Mu’s eyes widen even further, looking at Bi Tuo in disbelief.

She was also a Cultivator of the Martial Dao, so she naturally knew what the Seven-Colored Divine Radiance was.

This was the best Celestial Human Attraction for becoming a Cultivator!
