My Doomsay Territory Chapter 165, On The Importance of Choices.
The second group was now braking, and they were desperate to see what was happening. But what the hell is this?! Their comrades died under the machinery traps. Just when they thought they could finally break free from the pursuing puppets, but they were trapped like a sandwich?!
They were aware, if they stepped forward, the puppets would be awoken. But the puppets behind them are still catching up! They're in a pinch!
Time was running out.
Tang Yu frowned, pondering if he should open the path. Suddenly, the process of reviving those puppets popped up in his mind. It seemed like they still have a chance!
"Go straight ahead!"
The distance between each stone sculpture was about 5 or 6 meters wide, so Tang Yu rushed towards the middle of it. Wherever he went, the cracking sound continued, and the stone layer fell off one after another.
He suddenly realized that these 'stone sculptures' weren't stone sculptures in the first place. This tomb was never designed to be a terracotta army. After all, the puppets moved by their own will, and the layer of stone skin makes their reaction a bit slow.
Perhaps these puppets were some kind of safety measures placed in the tomb. God knows how long those stone puppets stood here in the secret realm without disturbance. Naturally, after things being left alone for a long time, dust will build upon the outer layer. And those dust began to harden into stone layers. It seems plausible…
Great Logician Tang Yu thought it made sense.
The surrounding puppets gradually become awaken. The second group was still outside the newly awoken puppets square. Once they began to awaken, there would be no escape. However, someone in the second group suddenly realized, "Quick! Let's follow them!"
It took some time before the puppets were fully awakened. The reason why they were awakened was that hunters were running past them. With the hunters' speed, by the time the stone puppets completely awaken, they would still be some distance between them.
It's the simplest method. The hunters were too nervous that they didn't even bother to think about it. Quickly rushing behind Tang Yu's group, they were still in time even though they were a few seconds late.
Hopeful expressions showed on their faces.
After an intermission, The Bear Path Exploration Team continued to the next round of the race.
..........
At this time at a cliffside, several hunters had gathered.
Behind the cliff was a mountain wall with a few holes where beast heads grinned wide.
A group of hunters ran out one after another obstacle in the Lion Path.
Looking down, the bottom of the cliff was pitch black. One could only vaguely hear the sound of turbulent water. But nobody knew how deep the water was, or if it's dangerous or not.
They were desperate.
There were countless pursuers behind them. And there was no path ahead!
"Shit! What should we do? It won't be long until those puppets catch up!"
"Damn it! If only those guys didn't activate so many puppets at once, we wouldn't be caught up in this mess!"
Thinking about it, a group of hunters accidentally activated the stone sculptures. They planned to destroy the rest of the puppets before they all could fully be awaken.
There was a fire ability expert among the group who condensed a massive fireball that could directly incinerate the stone puppets. However, only the stone layer was shattered. The heavily armored puppets inside were not. Only the puppets on the center of the attack were scrapped, while the rest of the puppets were activated.
Thinking of this, they just clench their teeth.
If Tang Yu was here, he would realize that it was not just their team that had bad luck. Basically, they were all unlucky. The probability was too high.
A hunter looked around. There were quite a few hunters who had arrived before them, "We have a lot of people here. Why don't we just fight those puppets?"
After some hesitation, the others finally agreed.
After passing through several halls and destroying many puppets, they knew very well they might win if they really fought. But they didn't know how many people had to die to win.
But right now, instead of dying from trying to leap to the platform on the other side, it was better dying from fighting the puppets. God knows what kind of dangers lurked on the other side of the platform. With the tomb's nature, they felt there was too much possibility of danger.
"Let's guard the path entrance and make use of the terrain to snipe out those puppets." One of them said that.
Next to them, a hunter who had arrived at the cliff a few moments earlier was confused.
"Puppets? What puppets?"
The two sides exchanged information. The hunters who ran out of the Lion Path were surprised to find the Tiger Path hunters didn't encounter any danger. Any danger!!
Not the puppets, no the traps along the way, nothing.
According to these people, the Tiger Path was a straight line. It only took them about 10 minutes before they arrived at this cliff.
"That 'Zhor' guy who calls himself the King of Thieves only said that only the bravest adventurers will get the final treasures. But we have found nothing along the way, so how are we going to sift out the bravest adventurers?"
The hunters from the Lion Path were silent, their mouths just smacked shut. They had taken the difficult path. Damn it! No wonder it's crowded here. Turns out the path wasn't dangerous at all, and it was a short distance. Even if those people weren't walking fast, they would still arrive first.
They had taken a lot of turns in the Lion Path.
"How many turns?"
Tang Yu, who just ran out of the Bear Path, heard these people talking from afar. Their expressions were even darker than the Lion Path hunters. The path they just took was more than a few turns. It's literally a winding path down the mountain. They had crossed the mountains and seas to get here. And Tang Yu had no idea how many of those quality resources still survived.
However, those who took the Tiger Path simply arrived at this point.
This illustrates the importance of choices!
The other's expression was also dark, especially Peng Bo, who was panting like crazy at this moment. Shook his head, he was the hunter from the second group behind the catching up, "Get ready, let's snipe those puppets at this exit too."
The hunters who came out of the Tiger Path also understood that they couldn't stay out of it and spread to the Lion and Bear Path exits. Some of them also split up elsewhere to prevent the puppets from coming out on the other path.
Time ticked and passed very slowly.
Everyone's eyes widened…

My doomsday Territory Chapter 166, Transcendence.
"How long has this been going on?"
"It's been about two minutes. Why do I feel something's not right?"
"You're right. Those heavily armored puppets weren't that slow. They chased after us like crazy dogs."
Gradually. Five minutes have passed. And then 10 minutes…
The hunters guarding the exits were nervous, afraid they won't survive the battle. However, this time they were shocked to discover that the puppets chasing after them were gone! It just felt unreal…
Some people suddenly felt relieved and dropped to their knees. These people weren't in the same condition as Tang Yu's team. They were chased by the puppets, and constantly being attacked by traps along the way, they barely survived. Some of them were heavily wounded, almost to the point of dying.
"It feels so good to be alive."
The scene was quite touching. However, a person suddenly snapped them back into reality, "It's too soon to celebrate your life. At least not until we can get out of here. Besides, if we continue staying here, even if we didn't encounter any danger, we'll still starve to death." As soon he said that the hunters realized they lacked food supply. At best, it's only good for emergencies. Their food could only last for a day or two. But no one actually knew how long they could get out from here.
Before coming in, they thought the entrance wasn't a one-way path. Notably, a few well-informed hunters were secretly annoyed. They knew such a separate space was called a secret realm. But the problem is, isn't there always an in and out access from the secret realm? Why is this one different?
The crowd's attention gradually shifted to the edge of the cliff.
Obviously, the way to continue was to leap to the platform on the cliff's other side. They could faintly see the opposite platform with a dark hole attached behind it through the dim light.
But reaching the opposite platform was another problem that needed to be solved.
Tang Yu was considering whether he should plan A, B, or CDEFGHIJ.
At that moment, a young man stepped out from the crowd.
'It's Chen Feng.' Tang Yu thought.
He was still concerned about some of the famous hunters in Lindong and had ordered Gray Blade to gather some information. He knew what Chen Feng was planning to do. Chen Feng stood at the cliff's edge, holding a rope in his hand, while the other end of the rope was being held by another team member.
"When I fly over to the platform, tie the rope so you can climb over through it." He said.
Using his wind control ability, the air currents surrounded him, slowly lifting him up. The wind fluttered his clothes and hair. Chen Feng accelerated with a woosh, his body flew straight from the cliff.
Suddenly…
"Crap! It's a fog!"
Chen Feng shouted and tried to control the blowing wind. However, it was in vain. His usual flying methods seemed useless at this moment. His body fell from the air faster and faster. The spectating hunters were stunned. They had never expected such a plot twist.
The members of the Kamikaze Squad quickly held down the rope. Feeling the rope in their hands were dragging them down. Even the hunters who helped him hold the force couldn't resist the enormous inexplicable force.
The rope snapped.
There was a faint sound of heavy objects falling into the water. The members of the Kamikaze Squad looked down at the edge of the cliff, but all they could see was bottomless pitch darkness.
.......
The area around Yuncheng.
The large shelter that initially held people's hopes was now in ruins.
The red fog was floating in the sky. From the ruined building, the howls of demonic beasts were rising and falling.
At this moment, in a mountain forest 20 to 30 kilometers away from the Yuncheng Shelter.
The Great Evil Eye was suspended mid-air, looking at the tree in front of it. A giant tree with white transparent, crystal-like leaves. Countless blood vessels waved behind the eyeball. "I've never thought that I would be so lucky to find an Ancient Spirit Tree. This is a great opportunity for our Evil Eye clan!"
The eyeball spun, the Great Evil Eye's gaze swept under the giant tree where many demonic beasts were gathered. "Do scums like you all worthy enough to enjoy the benefits from the Ancient Spirit Tree?"
It emitted a mighty oppressing momentum, like a violent wind swept across the field. Making the sand and stones fly, wreaking havoc to the nearby trees. Only the Ancient Spirit Tree growing over the Spirit Stone Mine was unscathed.
Unlike the usual berserk demonic beasts, these ones were languid and were resting below the tree. They had a rare panic look on their faces as the pressure swept over them. Numerous demonic beasts scattered to flee.
A three-story-tall crimson demonic beast like a western dragon was shrieking with reluctance—a blazing red flame coming out of its mouth.
The Great Evil Eye glanced towards the crimson dragon.
Poof.
The high-level demonic beast, which clearly wasn't weak, burst open like a balloon. Not even a single bone remained. The other demonic beast ran even faster.
The group of Evil Eyes arrived at the bottom of the Ancient Spirit Tree. Squinting its eyes and felt power pervaded from around the ancient tree, slowly purifying its spirit, it felt warm.
"Come here." A clan member with dark red roots-like legs excitedly walked forward. Power bulged around the Great Evil Eye. Suddenly, the bright crystalline leaves of the Ancient Spirit Tree dimmed one by one. The spirit-purifying power was drawn by the Great Evil Eye and slowly injected into the crimson-legged clan member beside him.
As if water was flowing into its body, the momentum of the elder clan member suddenly rose. Suddenly, the eyeball floated up. The root-like legs fell off from its bottom, turned into ashes, and dissipated into the wind.
The clan member levitated and came to the Great Evil Eye's side and spoke with simple words. "Elder… old…"
"It worked! Good! Good!!" The Great Evil Eye was delighted. He turned his eyes at the Ancient Spirit Tree. A small portion of the crystal leaves was dimmed, "Unfortunately, this tree is too young. So there's not much power from it. But it's enough."
Some of the clan members were still guarding the area around the Crack of the Abyss.
The Great Evil Eye estimated the number of clansmen, withdrew some of the power from the Soul Ancient Tree, and injected it into the other clansmen.
Suddenly, the clan members' aura of these grew stronger. They had become more agile.
