65: Chapter 65 Breakthrough to the Sixth Tier
"Isn't that obvious? If we don't go inside Skeleton Island... is there a zombie right in front of us?" Chu Yaoyao finally couldn't hold back and scolded him.
What kind of person is this? Such a super, super, super, super simple structure of Skeleton Island... and he doesn't understand it?
"Really, Grandpa Peppa, I suggest you read more. There's a reason I called you here. Otherwise, with your peak Fifth-Order strength, would they even look at you?" Peppa also couldn't help but say.
Mu Cheng's heart was really big. Hearing this, he was instead suddenly shocked and asked.
"Damn!!! Can't you guys explain it a bit?"
"Girl, I'll leave it to you! I don't want to be quiet and not talk." Peppa didn't speak anymore, falling into a deep sleep on Mu Cheng's shoulder.
"Skeleton Island has a structure... the further down you go, the stronger the zombies become. The key is the one-way Teleportation Talisman Array at the very bottom." Chu Yaoyao had no choice but to explain briefly.
Mu Cheng understood immediately. "Got it, got it. Our target is the Teleportation Talisman Array."
"You could say that, but also not exactly. The Teleportation Talisman Array... zombies above the Sixth Order can restore it. Our main targets are still the treasure chests and the High-level Trader. We need to finish this quickly!" Chu Yaoyao was still quite worried and explained clearly.
Letting Mu Cheng know... would of course increase the chances of success.
"From what you're saying, do we first break the Teleportation Talisman Array, then wipe out all the zombies in one go, or what... can't you be more specific?" Mu Cheng scratched his head and said.
It was clear... he simply didn't understand what exactly needed to be done.
Charging straight in... was indeed quite dangerous, but to break the Teleportation Talisman Array first, how could that be so easy?
"Of course we charge in. Don't worry, the Teleportation Talisman Array isn't always active either. Besides, this Skeleton Island isn't very large, so it's impossible for there to be a Tier 8 Zombie." After struggling for a moment, Chu Yaoyao finally laid things out clearly.
Indeed, it needed to be like this... explained a bit more clearly. That would make things easier~
This... charging straight in, what do you need me for then? Besides, if you're so certain there's no Tier 8 Zombie, isn't it a piece of cake for you?
"You... explain it more clearly! Why did you bring me here?" Mu Cheng also couldn't be bothered to think and asked directly.
Peppa finally couldn't hold back and scolded him.
"Don't you get it yet? Her target is the High-level Trader. It's simple to guess, okay? You can only meet the Trader by breaking the Teleportation Talisman Array. Otherwise, why would she bring you? Because you're handsome?"
This time, Mu Cheng was left speechless by the retort... his face even darkened, not knowing what to say.
Fortunately, Chu Yaoyao suddenly said, "Alright, no time to waste. Let's go down!"
She had no time to listen to this; dealing with the High-level Trader was more important!
Mu Cheng also had no choice but to follow helplessly...
Skeleton Island wasn't very tall. Soon, the two of them and the Little Piglet arrived at the very top.
There was nothing on top of Skeleton Island, just a very long, long crack in the middle, that's all!
"Don't just stand there. Let's go down!"
Knowing Mu Cheng would ask this and that, Peppa took the initiative and directly pushed him in...
"Well... I guess that works too." Chu Yaoyao felt quite speechless.
But upon careful thought, this was also good. No need to explain everything clearly...
Finally, she also leaped down!
Inside was a different world... scattered rocks, overgrown black grass, and faint light from an unknown source, making the surroundings quite eerie.
"This floor has First-order Zombies. No need to waste time. Go straight down to the Fifth-Order Zombies you need." Without wasting words... Chu Yaoyao soon disappeared from sight.
"Don't just stand there. Hurry up and follow towards the middle." Seeing Mu Cheng hesitating, Peppa spoke up again.
It also saved him... from asking endless questions.
"Can't we fly? Why walk? Forget it, forget it... this Skeleton Island isn't very big anyway."
Mu Cheng also couldn't worry too much and hurriedly followed Chu Yaoyao...
The First-order Zombies were quite dumb... upon discovering Mu Cheng and Chu Yaoyao, they just chased after them with single-minded determination.
They didn't even know to surround them...
Of course, even if they surrounded them, it would be useless. Trapping the two of them was simply impossible.
In less than five minutes, Mu Cheng, Chu Yaoyao, and the Little Piglet... had already descended to the second layer.
The second layer was pretty much the same as the first, also with scattered rocks, overgrown black grass, and faint light from an unknown source.
The two didn't stop and went straight to the third layer... all the way to the fifth layer before finally stopping.
"Fifth-Order Zombies, it's your turn. We're not short on time anyway, no need to rush." After saying this...
She didn't even bother with Mu Cheng, directly took out a sofa, lay down on it, and grabbed a bottle of happy fat soda...
"Alright then! I'll finish them all in an hour." Although Mu Cheng was quite speechless...
But right now, improving his strength was more important. He directly released the Black Vine and instantly began devouring over thirty Fifth-Order Zombies.
Originally, the space on the fifth layer wasn't very large, and plus, Fifth-Order Zombies already possessed a certain level of intelligence...
Knowing they couldn't win, they would run. But in this small place, they couldn't go out, nor could they descend to the sixth layer...
It was completely a one-sided massacre by Mu Cheng!
"Why are these zombies all so scared?" Mu Cheng looked at the scene before him, quite bewildered, and couldn't help but ask.
Peppa couldn't be bothered to explain... just kept sleeping soundly, completely ignoring Mu Cheng's words.
Helpless, he... had no choice but to continue devouring. Originally planning to take an hour, now it only took twenty minutes.
Mu Cheng also successfully broke through to the Sixth Order.
"Is this the strength of the Sixth Order? I feel like my own Bloodline Power is endless and inexhaustible!" Mu Cheng himself felt quite surprised.
He never imagined that merely at the Sixth Order, his strength was already at least over ten times higher than his Sixth-Order strength in his previous life!
"Don't make a fuss. Not just now... weren't you already inexhaustible in Bloodline Power before?" Peppa suddenly popped up and retorted.
Actually, whether it was Mu Cheng at the Fourth Order... or him now at the Sixth Order, his own Bloodline Power was indeed inexhaustible.
"No... although my Bloodline Power is inexhaustible now, I feel I've become much, much stronger." Mu Cheng was also puzzled.
Logically speaking, the difference in strength from the First to the Sixth Order isn't very big. It's from the Seventh Order upwards that the qualitative change occurs.
"The Devouring Bloodline isn't as simple as you think. Let's focus on the main task first." Chu Yaoyao suddenly popped up with that sentence.
At this moment... she had already come to Mu Cheng's side.
"You've heard of the Devouring Bloodline?" Mu Cheng immediately became curious and asked.
Chu Yaoyao shook her head and said, "I have heard of it. Its arrival is both destruction and the beginning of hope, but as for the specifics, you should ask the Little Piglet. I think no one knows more clearly than it."
"On the day the broken sword is reforged, you will naturally understand then." Peppa didn't explain... but did give Mu Cheng a timeframe.
Chu Yaoyao beside him instantly became uneasy.
"The black hole heavy sword... is broken? That divine weapon used against the Demon God last time? If that's really the case, then it's indeed quite troublesome."
