RPG: The Divine Deconstructor - Chapter 59

Chapter 59: Chapter 59: The Huge Head Under the Stone Bridge

When he went offline the last time, he was at the cliff-side of the Hidden Summit Cliff in mid-air.

So, after re-entering the game, Jiang Ming’s body was suspended, falling straight down to the ground.

Already prepared for this, Jiang Ming quickly summoned the flight puppet to stabilize his body in mid-air.

“Huh~ Fortunately, Sky Wing is no longer there, otherwise I would be killed in seconds having just entered the game.”

Standing on the flight puppet, Jiang Ming looked towards the stone platform and saw that there was no one there. He let out a long sigh of relief, muttered to himself and flew towards the stone platform.

Coming to the stone platform, Jiang Ming put away the flight puppet. He took out a torch and walked into the stone cave.

The stone cave was thirty feet high and was wide enough to accommodate several people. The dark cave was full of black weeds, and exuded a corrosive smell from the inside.

Jiang Ming remained very vigilant and his eyes were constantly surveying his surroundings. He remembered that Money Lover died suddenly and inexplicably here. When he didn’t know what was in the cave, he must remain careful at all times. Once he died, he might be teleported to Demon Bone City, and if that happened, it would be difficult to come back again.

The further he went inside, the wider the cave looked and the colder the air became. The demon energy here became more and more abundant.

After walking for about ten minutes, he finally came to the depths of the cave.

There was nothing here at the depth of the cave, vacant and empty, with not a single weed growing.

Jiang Ming came to a wide-open space deep in the cave and paced back and forth. His eyes revealed a puzzled expression as he thought to himself, ‘Money Lover said that the Demon Saint’s Bone Fragment was obtained here and he was killed here too. I have been strolling here for quite some time, but why is nothing happening?’

“Flap flap~”

A very brief sound rang out. If you did not listen carefully, you might miss it. But Jiang Ming, who had been vigilant all this time, used the Phantom Shadow skill at the instant he heard the movement and left his original location, leaving behind a trail of shadows.

“Boom boom~”

When he came to the inner edge of the stone cave, the shadow exploded, generating loud ‘booms’. When Jiang Ming turned around, he saw that dozens of palm-sized red-eyed bats were blown out by the explosion.

Vampire Bat: Level 20 ordinary monster

Attributes:? ? ?

“So Money Lover was killed by these vampire bats.” Jiang Ming looked at the attributes of the vampire bats. Because of the level difference, he could not see the attributes of vampire bats. But judging from the bats’ level, their attacks must be at least a hundred. Looking at the dozens of vampire bats that had been blown out, if all of them attacked simultaneously, even if he had an HP of a few thousands, he would inevitably be killed in seconds.

“Squeak~”

The group of bats that were blown out did not die. After getting up, they plunged towards Jiang Ming again.

Seeing this, Jiang Ming quickly took out four or five torches and placed them around his body.

Bats were afraid of fire and light. After feeling the heat of the torch, those vampire bats rushing towards Jiang Ming hovered around at some distance away from Jiang Ming’s location and did not attack Jiang Ming anymore.

“Luckily I prepared a few more torches, or I would definitely have died here.”

Jiang Ming looked at the vampire bats hovering around him and heaved a sigh of relief.

Then, his eyes continued to survey his surroundings, as doubts arose in his heart. ‘I have already observed the cave many times, but how come I didn’t see these vampire bats previously? Where did these vampire bats come from?’

“Huh? That’s…”

At this moment, he suddenly saw that from his left, a dozen more vampire bats flew out of the wall.

Seeing this, he frowned and lowered his head in deep thought, ‘Demon King Garuda mentioned in his notes that he seems to have seen formations, altars or independent spaces? Could it be that wall?’

The torch could only last for half an hour. When half an hour was up, he would definitely be killed by these vampire bats. He would die either way, so why not fight back? Anyway, if he were to die, he could always return here after he had the abilities.

Jiang Ming clenched his fists, and a hint of firm determination appeared in his eyes.

After the phantom shadow skill’s cooling time had passed, he activated the Phantom Dance Step and Phantom Shadow skills. Holding one torch in each hand, he rushed towards the wall.

“Squeak~”

At the moment he started running, the dozens of vampire bats chased after him with a fierce glow in their eyes.

Wielding the torches, he fended off a few vampire bats and avoided other attacks with the mysterious and unpredictable Phantom Dance Steps. Although he was attacked once or twice, he was still alive and successfully reached that wall.

“Hummm~”

Just as he touched the wall, a circular pattern appeared on the wall. The pattern consisted of some ancient runes, and it seemed like some kind of special teleportation runes. Light suddenly emitted from these runes and enveloped around him, with a hum, his body disappeared from the stone cave.

…

After a wave of dizziness, he woke up instantly.

After he woke up, he hurriedly drank a small bottle of rejuvenating potion. Then, he ran forward as he looked around his surroundings.

He discovered that after being teleported by the teleportation array, he appeared in an extremely dark space. By the light of the torch, he found that he was on a stone bridge leading to the darkness.

Running on the stone bridge, he glanced at both sides of the bridge, but he could see nothing but endless darkness. In order to find out about his surroundings, he threw the torch he was holding in his left hand towards the side of the stone bridge.

After throwing the torch to the side of the stone bridge, it fell downwards, and he saw a scene that made a shiver run down his spine.

He saw that on both sides of the stone bridge, there was nothing but bottomless abyss. With the light of the torch, he saw that within the abyss, there was a huge head, which was at least a hundred meters in diameter. The torch hit the head, and the head moved a little, but it did not wake up.

While his shock had not receded, he saw that the group of vampire bats that chased him through the teleportation array stopped at the end of the stone bridge, hovering around constantly, as if they were afraid of something and did not dare to step forward.

“F*ck, what the hell is this head under the stone bridge? Investigation technique has no use on it at all.”

Jiang Ming muttered to himself as he continued running.

He didn’t know where he was, he just knew he had to keep running and he didn’t dare to stop for a single second.

Whenever he felt hungry, he would drink a small rejuvenating potion to replenish his HP. And whenever he was tired, he would go offline to take some rest.

Just like that, after running on the stone bridge for five or six days, he finally ran to the end. The torch in his hand had already been used up. If it hadn’t been for a faint light appearing in front of him, he would not have been able to tell that he had reached the end.

At the end of the stone bridge, there was a three-storey ancient temple. Although the ancient temple had only three floors, it was thousands of feet high. Thick demon energy emanated from it, making the ancient temple surrounded by clouds of demon energy very spectacular.

After arriving here, Jiang Ming felt that something in the ancient temple was beckoning him, making his steps quicker as he ran towards the ancient temple.

The closer he got to the ancient temple, the faster his heart beat. Although it was only a game, he was puzzled as his heartbeat seemed so real!

‘Maybe the “Demon Saint’s Heart” is in the ancient temple?’

Feeling the changes in his body, Jiang Ming suddenly thought of this as his eyes lit up and he became excited. He hurriedly activated the Phantom Dance Step and rushed towards the ancient temple.
