Chapter 157 – Return to the Sixth World and collect Resurrection Stone fragments!


Currently, the entire Temple of Destiny has reached level 38, with an average level surpassing even the Tian Family and Radiant!

Everyone is equipped with a full set of level 35, 4-star, all-gold Dark Set, and all have S-rank skills!

With such strength, they are on par with the top new professionals in the capital city, Dragon City, of the Dragon Kingdom!

And all of this is thanks to the Demon Contract!

There’s nothing left worth staying for in the Fifth World.

So, Zhang Yue led four of his subordinates from the Temple of Destiny back to the Sixth World, which they had visited earlier.

The mission in the Sixth World is to hunt the Nether Legion to collect Resurrection Stone fragments. Every 100 fragments can be combined into a complete Resurrection Stone, which can revive any NPC in the City of Ice and Snow, and you can randomly receive a D to SSS-grade reward from them.

Last time they entered the Sixth World, Zhang Yue was still equipped with 4-star gear, and Lin Tian and the others were just tagging along, so they didn’t dare to challenge high-level monsters. They only targeted level 41 Nether Warriors in the Nether Hall map.

With the current overall strength of the Temple of Destiny, they can now challenge higher-level maps.

After a search on the map, Zhang Yue locked onto a target: “Let’s go to the Nether Gorge.”

Wu Haotian checked the map and was a bit surprised: “Whoa, going straight to a level 45 map right away?”

Ouyang Ling’er exclaimed, “If we don’t go to the highest-level map in the Sixth World, it would be a waste of the all-gold Dark Set and S-rank skills that the Guild Leader has cultivated for us!”

Leaving the City of Ice and Snow, they followed the map’s guidance and arrived at the Nether Gorge located north of the City of Ice and Snow.

In the vast gorge covered in snow, numerous Nether beings stood frozen in ice.

Additionally, they could see many level 45 veteran professionals forming teams to hunt the Nether beings and collect Resurrection Stone fragments.

To farm top-tier rewards above S-rank, many professionals stay in the Sixth World for years, even decades!

Occasionally, there are reports of a professional getting extremely lucky and farming an S-rank reward in the Sixth World, leading to a life of luxury with sports cars, villas, and foreign girlfriends, which is highly enticing!

But such news only appears once or twice a year.

After forming a team, the five of them stepped into the Nether Gorge, each grabbing their weapons and entering combat mode.

At this moment, not far ahead, the snow melted.

A Nether Mage, cloaked in black with eyes emitting a cold light, appeared in their sight!

Nether Mage (Magic Type · Common Monster)

Level: 45

Magic Attack: 2980

Physical Defense: 1550

Magic Defense: 1660

Health Points:

Skills: Nether Spirit Art (B-rank), Magic Burst (C-rank)

Description: Once served the Death Sovereign Kira, the Nether Mages are the core combat force of the Nether Legion, possessing exceptionally powerful magic damage abilities…

“Except for health points, its attack and defense have already surpassed the 6-star boss Grim Reaper, Tila.”

“Is this the top-tier monster of the Sixth World?” Ouyang Ling’er sharpened her knife, showing no fear but rather excitement.

Wu Haotian glanced at it and frowned, “Can you tone it down a bit? You’re drooling. Do you want to eat the Nether Mage?”

Saying this, Wu Haotian turned to the Nether Mage, his face showing excitement: “Heh, Nether Mage, here I come!”

With that, he charged at the Nether Mage with his flaming spear!

Ouyang Ling’er rolled her eyes at Wu Haotian: “You’re the one who wants to eat the Nether Mage!”

Depending on their professions, the Dark Set had different effects on each of them.

Thunder Mage Lin Tian was surrounded by lightning.

Flame Knight Wu Haotian was engulfed in blazing fire.

The Rogue was as elusive as a shadow.

The Holy Light Priest was shrouded in starlight, like an angel.

Facing such powerful professionals, the Nether Mage was momentarily at a loss!

It might have been thinking: Why did I come out to die? Wouldn’t it be better to stay as a snowman?

But it was too late.

It decided to go all out!

The Nether Mage raised its skeletal staff, gathering dark magic energy at the tip.

Nether Spirit Art!

Magic Burst!

Boom! Boom!

The Nether Mage’s two skills directly attacked the approaching Wu Haotian, who blocked them with his shield.

Protected by the 4-star all-gold Dark Set, the Rare Grade Flame Knight Wu Haotian only took over 1500 points of damage from each skill, losing a sixth of his health bar.

The next moment, Wu Haotian quickly advanced and stabbed the Nether Mage several times.

Meanwhile, Lin Tian locked onto the Nether Mage and launched a ranged spell attack.

Ouyang Ling’er stealthily approached, stabbing the Nether Mage from behind with her dagger.

Damage numbers of seven to eight thousand kept popping up above the Nether Mage’s head!

For Lin Tian and the others, who were at level 38, dealing such damage to a level 45 monster was impressive, even in the eyes of other level 45 veteran professionals nearby!

“Damn! Are this year’s new professionals this strong?”

“Shit, their damage is almost catching up to us old-timers who have been in the Otherworld for eight years!”

With Lin Tian and the others focusing their attacks, they quickly brought the Nether Mage to low health.

From the rear, Zhang Yue cast a Hellfire Blaze, dealing the final blow with pinpoint damage.

Seeing the damage twice as high as his own, Wu Haotian couldn’t help but exclaim, “The old ginger is indeed spicier!”

“Ding~ You have killed a level 45 Nether Mage, Experience Points +700, Psionic Energy +450,000!”

“Demon Contract Psionic Energy +, Experience Points +105, Copper Coins +6!”

Compared to the level 41 Nether Warriors, the rewards from the level 45 Nether Mage were indeed much higher.

Even the drop rate of Resurrection Stone fragments increased from 33% to 50%!

To speed up the collection of fragments, Zhang Yue activated group farming mode.

With the Rogue’s extremely swift speed, Ouyang Ling’er quickly attracted dozens of Nether Mages, Nether Assassins, and Nether Archers after circling the area.

Following closely, Zhang Yue used Hell Judgment and Necromancer Storm, combined with the Apocalyptic Black Dragon’s Apocalyptic Dragon Flame and Apocalyptic Dragon Breath, to severely injure all the Nether beings!

Lin Tian, Wu Haotian, and Ouyang Ling’er then easily slaughtered the dozens of Nether beings!

After waiting for a skill cooldown, they repeated the process.

With wave after wave of Nether beings being slaughtered, the rich rewards made them lose track of time in the Nether Gorge.

They farmed from morning until 2 PM, only then remembering to go offline for lunch.

After lunch, they immediately went back online to continue farming.

By the end of the day, they had killed countless Nether beings.

Since Resurrection Stone fragments are randomly distributed and bound to the professional, making them non-tradeable, each of Zhang Yue’s team had accumulated over 300 fragments!

Returning to the City of Ice and Snow.

Wu Haotian and the others used their fragments to synthesize three Resurrection Stones each.

On the streets, they picked good-looking NPCs from the frozen ones and revived them with the Resurrection Stones.

Ouyang Ling’er ran to an NPC man with eight-pack abs visible through the transparent ice, her eyes gleaming: “Wow~ This guy’s body is amazing! Just my type!”

With that, she used a Resurrection Stone to revive the NPC man.

On the other side, seeing this, Wu Haotian couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh: “So vulgar.”

Then, he used a Resurrection Stone to revive a coldly beautiful blonde girl in front of him, even in her frozen state.

Whoosh!

As the Resurrection Stone released a large amount of magic energy to melt the ice, the blonde girl, Lina, came back to life.

She held Wu Haotian’s right hand with both hands, excitedly saying, “Thank you for saving me!”

Wu Haotian scratched his head and chuckled, “You’re welcome, it’s my duty!”

At the same time, a pleasant system notification sounded in Wu Haotian’s ear—

“Ding~ You have revived NPC Lina. Congratulations, you have received a D-rank reward: Experience Points +100,000, Psionic Energy +10,000, Silver Coins +30!”

Realizing he had received the lowest D-rank reward, Wu Haotian’s face immediately darkened: “What a waste of good looks!”

He turned and walked away, leaving Lina behind.

The Resurrection Stones only temporarily revive NPCs in the Sixth World.

The revived NPCs would be re-frozen after half an hour.

Soon, Lin Tian and the others had used up their three Resurrection Stones each.

Except for Ning Tiantian, who got lucky and received a B-rank reward, the others all received C to D-rank rewards.

Wu Haotian, who got three D-rank rewards in a row, made Ouyang Ling’er laugh until her stomach hurt: “As expected of you! Such bad luck!”

At this moment, Ning Tiantian suddenly noticed something: “Brother Zhang Yue, why didn’t you use your Resurrection Stones?”

Zhang Yue put the three newly synthesized Resurrection Stones into his storage space and said, “It’s not enough.”

Ning Tiantian was puzzled: “You only need one Resurrection Stone to revive a person, how is it not enough?”

Before she could finish, Ouyang Ling’er seemed to have thought of something and suspiciously asked, “Guild Leader, are you planning to revive the City of Ice and Snow’s lord: Snow Maiden, Noah?”
