Chapter 199: Reward at the Second Floor

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

As the stone ax fell, many statues started to move, they attacked at the same time.

Their attacks were simple, they only waved around the weapons in their hands.

But the issue was, they were huge!

Ye Feng could not dodge in time, he flew into the air after getting hit by a hammer, the strong impact almost made him spit out blood.

These statues attacked with simple movements but they were just too strong physically, each one could completely suppress Ye Feng!

Ye Feng extended a vine from his hand and attached it to a structure near the top of the palace, allowing him to dodge the wave of attacks.

“These statues cannot be destroyed using ordinary magic, their magic resistance is too high.” Ye Feng looked at Weakling which was still casting spells while dodging as he muttered to himself.

Weakling’s spells were very powerful, but there was little effect on these statues.

But Weakling’s size was a huge advantage here, it was hard for the statues to not hit each other as it dodged by moving around them.

Ye Feng wiped the blood from his lips and jumped down, bringing Weakling along as they used magic together.

“Earth judgment!”

This was the strongest earth elemental spell he could use. Although it was a spell, the meteorite earth spikes that were created attacked using physical force.

For spells that were fire or lightning attribute, they attacked using energy, the effect was too low on these statues.

A large number of meteorite earth spikes appeared from thin air, flying towards these statues with an unthinkable speed and acceleration.

“Protection of wood!”

Ye Feng endured another wave of attacks and used the force to reach the end of the path. At the same time, he stretched out his hand and summoned a huge wood shield that glowed in a faint light.

Although it looked like a shield, one could tell from the light that it was made of energy, it was not real wood.

The statues could only attack with brute force, they could not resist Ye Feng’s spells which were too powerful. After they were destroyed, he quickly charged towards the ladder that was at the end of the path.

The remaining statues did not pursue him, it was possible that they were too large for this, or maybe they were designed in such a manner.

Both reasons were actually the same one in essence.

Due to the fear of being attacked like earlier, once Ye Feng reached the second floor, he started to look around alertly, he only heaved a sigh of relief after confirming his safety.

If the first floor was just a walkway, then the second floor was a true palace. There were all sorts of decorations that shone in golden dazzling light, it was quite luxurious looking.

In such a place, the statues from earlier could not be displayed due to the lack of space.

Ye Feng walked slowly as he checked every step, this place looked like it was littered with treasures, as long as he searched carefully, he would be able to find something.

[Mental Training Potion]

Grade: Stage Four

Special Trait: After consumption, it can raise one’s mental strength through training in battle. Alternatively, it can greatly raise the speed of one’s growth in mental strength if consumed while cultivating.

Ye Feng opened the box and saw this potion inside.

This was the first time Ye Feng had seen such a potion, although it was only stage four, in terms of rarity, it was on par with a stage six potion.

After obtaining his first ‘treasure’, Ye Feng became more motivated than before.

[Wind Eagle Tail]

Grade: Stage Six

Special Trait: The tail of an adult wind eagle, it contains the power of the wind element. If used to make potions, it can temporarily raise the user’s speed. If used in forging, it can imbue wind attribute magic onto the equipment.

Regarding these materials, if he was not trying to collate his gains, Ye Feng would not even need to appraise it.

All he wanted to do was to fit everything into his spatial bag.

Like this, Ye Feng started to loot the second floor.

But after he was halfway through his search, Weakling suddenly raised its head and growled at the space above it.

Ye Feng raised his head and saw that a sharp spike was shooting towards him with breakneck speed.

At this critical moment, Ye Feng only had time to block the attack with both hands, magic would take too long to cast.

But how could his body block a sharp spike? Ye Feng’s left arm was quickly pierced but at the same time, his lightning bolt shot out.

Ye Feng endured the pain as he pulled out the spike, retreating while looking up.

There was a huge spider there, it was only slightly smaller than the statues on the first floor.

Ye Feng looked at the wound on his left arm, he let out a sigh of relief after seeing that there was no poison.

But the injury to his left arm’s bone would affect his combat strength for some time.

Ye Feng took out his weapon and charged towards the spider that was hanging from the ceiling.

Weakling was very upset as it growled, at this moment, the legs of the spider shook while attacking, giving Ye Feng a chance to force it down by cutting the legs.

While he was about to attack again, the spider spoke: “Spare me!”

While speaking, it looked at Weakling with a fearful gaze.

“I can give you all the spider silk that I created, it took a lot of effort to make it, it is definitely a top tier material.” The spider ran to Ye Feng and said in a pleading tone.

Although Ye Feng did not understand why this was happening, he nodded but kept up his alertness towards the spider.

The spider did not play tricks, it spit out many balls of spider silk.

[Giant Spider Essence Silk]

Grade: Peak Stage Six

Special Trait: The super strong silk that the giant spider created after a lot of time and effort. It is superb in terms of strength and stretchability, it is a top tier forging material.

As Ye Feng inspected the information of the spider silk, the giant spider suddenly raised its legs, quickly stabbing towards Ye Feng, leaving afterimages in the air.

But its legs were stopped by several shining wooden shields. If it was an earth wall, it could still break it with an energy attack, but such a shield could only be pierced but not destroyed.

“Heh, I knew it.” Ye Feng smiled coldly as he attacked together with Weakling.

“Void Slash!”

The giant spider’s head was crushed instantly, its body fell to the ground.

But after a few breaths of time, its stomach suddenly expanded and burst as countless small spiders crawled out.

Ye Feng subconsciously summoned a torrent of flames as the small spiders were burned to a crisp in an instant, but looking at the waves of spiders, Ye Feng gulped uncontrollably.

This was a nightmare for people with trypophobia.

These small spiders were not strong but the number was just too high. All together, their collective size even exceeded the giant spider, Ye Feng could not help but suspect that the stomach of the spider was a spatial area.

“Oh no! The town!” Ye Feng suddenly reacted.

Although the spiders could not affect him, they were not just able to attack, they could also go down the stairs behind him.
