Start With Contracting Sprites

"Ding……"

[Elf:? ? ? ]

The information on the panel appeared, and a second later, it changed to:

[Elf: Machine·Hundred Battles King (Crown)]

[Yu Ling Envoy:? ? ? (grey)]

[Status:..., energy exhausted, confused,...]

This crowned elf, the 'King of Hundred Wars', seems to have changed from a space flight state to a fighting state.

There was a red light emerging from its eyes, and the next moment, the entire body disappeared as if teleporting, appearing on the side of Fu Fu Ai Ai, and blasted out in a circle.

Another dazzling red light shot out from the fist like a beam, sweeping across the gray earth on the moon's surface, leaving a huge ravine hundreds of meters long.

The fur fur fur has disappeared.

A star trail appeared, spreading rapidly across the surrounding starry sky in the blink of an eye.

Star Trail!

This is a special trick that Fu Fu Ai Ai realized when he advanced, and was upgraded from the ‘Star Formation’.

In the starry sky shrouded by the Star Trail, the crowned elf King of Hundred Wars seemed to be covered with invisible shackles. His speed was visibly slowed down. The red light on his body also slowed down more than a bit from its appearance to its explosion.

Bang!

Bang bang bang~!

No sound could be heard, but the King of Hundred Wars became more and more violent. He opened his palms and spit out red light balls, like a big net covering Fu Fu Fu.

Fufuhehe is not good at speed, but under its feet, there is a bright star trail.

Behind it, a star wheel appeared, and it appeared in another place on a certain star track in an instant.

It kept jumping to avoid the violent attacks of the King of Hundred Wars.

These star tracks are particularly special. They are not condensed from elemental energy. Regardless of the red light balls or crimson beams, terrifying attacks pass through the star tracks and fall on the innocent moon.

Earth and rocks flew.

The black dress was flying, and two rays of light, one black and one white, shot out from its body, intertwined and collided. In an instant, its body grew taller, and rings were flying behind its head. The space around him cracked like a mirror.

Fusion state!

The girl in the black and white skirt raised her hands, and thousands of black energy balls flew out, tracing different trajectories and landing on the same target.

Boom boom boom boom—!

A dark cloud filled with dark elemental energy exploded and swept across dozens of miles.

in the dark clouds,

The King of Hundred Wars curled up into a ball, and the huge shields on his hands and legs blocked most of the attacks.

After all, it’s the crown!

But I'm not depressed.

At this moment when the dark clouds shrouded it, it closed its hands, and the boundless starlight spread out. On the star trails scattered in all directions, stars lit up one by one, quickly lighting up from the beginning to the end, and the entire star trail seemed to be completely activated.

"Star Control!"

Three phantoms of the sun, the moon, and the stars appeared behind Fu Fu Fu Ai Ai.

Its palms wearing black and white gloves finally closed completely.

The four directions of heaven and earth within the scope covered by the star's trajectory also distorted, the space collapsed inch by inch, and the power of space cutting fell... The defense that could not be broken by Fufu's own strength quickly twisted and cracked under the mighty power of the heaven and earth's space.

Not long after,

The red light in the eyes of the silver figure dimmed and fell from the sky.

Bang~!

"Ding! Your elf Yongye Yaoji has completed the conditions and the current completion level of the road to the crown (1/2)."

…

Not long ago, Yongye Yaoji had reached the limit of being a monarch.

Although, after the advancement ceremony was completed, its upper limit was raised a bit, and it "fell" from the extreme monarch to the law monarch.

but……

This does not prevent Su Hao from unlocking the path to the title before.

"To break through the crown, you naturally have to wait for the fifth-level form to be completed before breaking through. After all, the stronger the elf is in the monarch's ultimate stage, the greater the original power it can possess after breaking through the transformation."

Why can Ayan win the title alone?

Why can the stupid crow fight for the high-level title?

Naturally, it is because they have high foundations and strong foundations.

If he transforms now, he will be at a disadvantage.

but……

"If you don't accept the title that comes to you, it will be wasted."

"The path to the crown is not like that of the stupid crow. It requires a head-on fight for three minutes, but it is not easy. The crown elf must be put into a negative state and its combat power will be weakened to a certain extent."

However, the crown possesses original power and has a high resistance to various negative influences.

It's very difficult to cut a knife.

Not as good as...

Defeating a crowned elf directly would be half the way to completing the crowning...

"This King of Hundred Wars comes from nowhere. He is a good man and a good elf."

"Let's go, Ayan, take this foreign crown with you and let's go back."

…

Of course, the King of Hundred Wars didn't die. It just ran out of energy and was wounded by Fu Fu Ai Ai using the power of space, and simply passed out on the spot.

Su Hao left this crown that floated from the universe to the alliance and ignored it... He himself couldn't research anything.

And he's a busy man.

After completing the advancement, there is still one elf that needs to be busy.

Ayan!

Ayan has only completed one advancement since his birth.

——The advancement of Shadow Lord.

With just one advancement, its combat power at the extreme monarch stage can throw off many fifth-level elves.

And now, it's time for its second advancement.

[Yam Luo Ghost Lord (Second Advancement):

[■■Advanced: #@\u0026%￥ # (unlocked)]

Ayan's second advancement is already very similar to Die Xiaodie's sixth-level form ritual.

The entire form has no name, and is reflected on the panel as twisted and mysterious runes.

Su Hao had already received information once, so he knew the process clearly, but his expression remained solemn.

This was different from the fifth-level ritual that he was familiar with.

Rounding up equals six levels of ritual.

This is the first time.

…

For several days, Su Hao spent time in the archives of the Exploration Department, browsing some confidential information.

He had actually 'previewed' it before, but it was like taking an exam and had to read it again more or less.

Stability is the most important thing.

"The treasure is ready, ready."

"The ceremony venue is ready."

"Ayan is in good condition."

Two days later,

"Mr. Su, if you go in from here and keep walking, you will reach the famous Ghost King's Cave. I can only take you here."

A guide hired by Su Hao with a lot of money said that he looked at Su Hao, who was wearing a mask, and added, "This Ghost King's Cave is quite extraordinary. There are many ghost elves, and the lower you go, the more dangerous it becomes. It is said that there are even some who have a title." Big names have come here to explore, but they haven’t been able to get to the bottom.”

"So be careful and try not to go deep in person. Just let the elves go if you want."

The senior guide gave a few words of warning, then rode an extraordinary level earthquake wolf, turned around, and galloped away.

It seems like there is a big terror ahead.

This place is already underground,

The sealed rock formations block the sun, but the winding and complex underground caves grow some luminous moss, which brings some light to the underground space.

"Make a note of the route."

"Guhe~!"

The area where Su Hao came this time, with the alliance code name Y-012, is a world area open to the outside world. In the mouths of many Yuling Envoys, this area has a more appropriate name - underground city.

The entrance to the world is underground.

It is precisely because of the numerous underground passages and special environment in this area that it attracts many explorers to hunt for treasures.

The most famous and dangerous area among them is the 'Ghost King's Cave'.

It is said that

In the early days of the alliance, most of the ghost-type elves came from this 'Ghost King's Cave'. Now, many of the original elves in Blue Star may have had their ancestors and ancestors come from here.

The Ghost King's Cave is deep in the 'dungeon area', but due to the numerous underground passages, twists and turns, the map cannot guide the way very well, and even the almighty Die Xiaodie can't do anything about it - after all, the Ghost King's Cave is far from the Alliance Dungeon. The straight-line distance is hundreds of kilometers away.

Actually walking...

Su Hao ran for two full days under the leadership of a senior guide. This was when Ayan released his pressure and scared away the wild champion.

But the senior guide was only willing to take him to the entrance of the Ghost King's Cave and was unwilling to go deep.

No amount of money is of any use.

"Well, after all, he is just an extraordinary spirit master. He himself has only gone deep into the Ghost King's Cave once under the leadership of the Heavenly King. If I look for him to navigate inside, I might as well go by myself."

"Xiaodie, Ayan, Dumb Crow, let's go."

To be on the safe side, Su Hao brought Die Xiaodie and A Yan with him this time.

If Erhalin wasn't still in the process of transformation, Fat Bear... Fat Bear would be too big to fit.

He wanted the whole group to come.

…

As soon as I entered the Ghost King's Cave, I felt much colder.

The number of luminous moss growing underground was gradually decreasing. As a last resort, the feathers of the crocodile emitted light, like a big light bulb, illuminating the surrounding area.

This is like poking a hornet's nest.

The senior guide has always warned before, "Don't light the lamp or use the electric light!"

What the stupid crow points to is not a lamp, but the sun.

"Jiejiejiejiejie——"

Waves of strange laughter echoed.

Black shadows passed by not far away.

Die Xiaodie sensed that there were many extraordinary elves among them.

"No wonder the guide doesn't want to come in. At the extraordinary level, we are still in the home of the ghost elves. Without the king, wouldn't we be on the street in a minute? But..."

"dumb--"

The strange screams of the ghost elves are loud, but the crow of the dull crow is even louder.

Wisps of golden flames that can burn everything burst out, with a little bit of the aura of a dull crow in between.

In an instant,

The ghostly figures wandering around disappeared.

Ghost elves are also wild elves.

Have the most basic instinct of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

If it were just a monarch, an ordinary monarch, due to the nature of ghost elves, they might even seek death and come up to harass them.

but……

What the hell kind of flame is this? It’s so scary!

Can't afford to offend.

Slip away!

…

The Ghost King's Cave is very large, and there is not even a specific scope defined. However, almost all the people living in this area are ghost elves, and occasionally treasures suitable for ghost and dark elements are bred.

There are ways to go up, down, left or right.

But it is true that the further down you go, the stronger the elves are and the shadow energy becomes more intense.

After walking for five or six hours,

Su Hao's team has descended several thousand meters and traveled hundreds of kilometers, from high-risk areas, to top-level dangerous areas, to super-dangerous areas...

At this time, the dull crow lighting up the sun was no longer a deterrent enough.

It's not that the stupid crow is not strong, it can kill a ghost monarch with one sword, but it is not enough to scare them away.

Unless the power completely explodes, but...

This 'Ghost King's Cave' was indeed explored by someone with a title, but returned without success. Others thought it was a rumor, but Su Hao knew that it was true.

Before Ayan completed the advancement ceremony, he did not want to cause trouble.

It's inappropriate to explode with momentum.

Dumb Crow exits.

A light bulb that only maintains a certain brightness.

Ayan emerged from the shadow, and his breath leaked out.

Not strong.

Not even enough to deter the supernatural elves, but...

The surrounding ghost elves who were constantly testing on the verge of death were all honest.

Ayan called out.

All the shadowy ghosts disappeared.

Keep walking, keep drifting.

Su Hao himself has never been to the Ghost King's Cave. It's just a theoretical analysis. There must be a place suitable for a ritual venue here. The specific location must be found slowly.

This search lasted three days.

Finally he found a treasure that satisfied him completely.

——A place guarded by all ghosts.

This is his own naming.

This place is quite empty, and the shadow energy is thick and condensed into a river, flowing from several directions around it and converging here.

Looking around, there are towering rock walls with deep and dark caves scattered all over them.

If the Ghost King's Cave is compared to a large formation, this is the core node of the formation, or at least one of them.

"Get ready, the ceremony venue begins to be decorated."

Ayan waved his black robe, and the dark wind blew out, clearing out a clearing around him without affecting the shadowy rivers nearby.

Die Xiaodie began to arrange.

Spiritual jade, precious materials, and treasures flew to the corresponding positions, and then formed card positions to fix them.

In just a few minutes, the entire ceremony venue was decorated.

It was countless times faster than setting up the venue a few days ago.

soon,

Ayan fell to the center of the field.

Countless shadow essences were poured into it, and the energy and original power in its body began to rotate.

In a moment,

The whole body is pitch black, like an advanced cocoon of light flowing in black water waves, intertwined and formed.

Three seventh-level treasures.

Hanging near the cocoon of light.

"The last step, broken treasure."

A little bit of spirituality floated out from the three high-level treasures.

But to Ayan's level, the ritual no longer requires more than the spirituality of the treasure.

more necessary,

The purest embodiment of the law.

Click~!

Three extremely precious treasures, whose names were not even left behind, cracked and exploded under Die Xiaodie's tyrannical power of thought.

The majestic energy contained in the treasure was pulled by the advanced light cocoon and poured in like a mighty river.

A large amount of spiritual energy escaped from his body.

Partially absorbed by Ayan.

Part of it disappeared between heaven and earth.

Very wasteful.

But it is necessary.

The mysterious embodied shadow laws emerge one after another. Using this as a starting point, the shadow laws surrounding the place guarded by thousands of ghosts gradually materialize.

The lines of the manifested laws continue to spread, like one circle after another, hanging around the advanced light cocoon.

I don’t know when,

On the surrounding stone walls, ghostly figures emerged from the deep caves.

They opened their eyes and stared at the embodied laws around the advanced light cocoon.

His eyes were full of desire.

He wanted to get closer, but he was intimidated by Ayan's imperial power and didn't dare.

Even the domain monarchs and law monarchs among them only dare to fly closer and do not dare to disturb the emperor who is advancing and transforming.

"Jiejiejie——"

In the silence, a strange scream suddenly sounded.

A blurry black shadow stared at the runes and the advanced light cocoon.

Without hesitation or fear, it turned into a ray of light and flew towards it.
