Otherworldly Skeleton Evolution

“Take your time getting used to it. The Flame Demon Commander only has area-of-effect damage skills, and the damage isn’t enough to one-shot you. With Mixed Element Blood Slash’s life-drain effect and damage, you can solo it without worry,” Jiang Cheng said while picking up some equipment from the ground.

The Flame Demon Commander’s attacks were all magic damage, and the kind with few damage ticks per skill.

Perhaps for other players, one sweep of these skills could wipe out a large group, as their life values couldn’t withstand even a single hit.

But for A Silly Cutie, it wasn’t a problem at all.

As for the remaining two World Bosses, Jiang Cheng couldn’t be bothered with them anymore.

After experiencing death once, Jiang Cheng had realized that no glory was more important than the people by his side.

The world changes in an instant, let alone a game world full of dangers.

Plans can never keep up with changes. He couldn’t absolutely guarantee what he would become in the future.

Perhaps in the next moment, he would be erased from the game for any reason.

Every moment spent accompanying her growth might be a luxury.

“We have information on the Seven Demon Lords of Sin.”

As Jiang Cheng was guiding A Silly Cutie, Fist Sage and Qian Shanxue had arrived in Vermilion Bird City and walked to his side.

Jiang Cheng was slightly startled. He glanced around them and, finding only the two of them, asked curiously, “Just the two of you?”

“Array Emperor and Meng Changqing went to Xuanwu City. Renegade Desperado took Yun Bao, Path to Hell, and the others to Azure Dragon City.”

“Master, you’re not even looking at me, hmph.”

Seeing Jiang Cheng only talking to Fist Sage, Qian Shanxue immediately glared at him.

Hearing her long-missed voice, Jiang Cheng turned his head to look at Qian Shanxue on his right, smiling slightly, “Little Xue has grown up. Don’t always act like a child, throwing little tantrums.”

“Really? Have I really grown?”

Qian Shanxue put her hands on her waist, made a gesture of supporting her chest, and even weighed them a bit, leaving Jiang Cheng quite speechless.

“You know what I mean,” Jiang Cheng’s tone became slightly heavier.

“I know, I know.”

Hearing Jiang Cheng’s words, Qian Shanxue immediately shrank like an aggrieved kitten, obediently lowering her head.

“That’s better.” Jiang Cheng couldn’t help but pat her head.

Although this little girl hadn’t heeded his advice and had involved the Dharma Saint, causing a lot of trouble, Jiang Cheng didn’t want to blame her too much.

As long as he could still wield a knife, troubles didn’t exist.

“Was the information about the Seven Demon Lords of Sin on the Hell Hound?”

Fist Sage nodded, “As expected of you, you guessed it in one try. The World Boss in Azure Dragon City has ‘Seven Sins’ in front of its name, called Seven Sins – Carl. The information shows it’s one of the mounts of the Demon Lord of Greed.”

“Since the Hell Hound is one of the mounts of the Demon Lord of Greed, it seems the Seven Demon Lords of Sin should be in Hell,” Jiang Cheng speculated.

“I bought some information about the entrance to Hell from Huo Silou. Hell has seven main entrances, divided into Samsara Hell, Judgment Hell, Conviction Hell, Netherworld Hell, Unforgivable Hell, Trial Hell, and Slaughter Hell.”

As Fist Sage spoke, he extended his right hand in front of Jiang Cheng, implying that payment was due for the following information.

“Big Hippo, have you got your head stuck in a money pot?”

Seeing Fist Sage ask for money like this, Qian Shanxue immediately became angry.

Big Hippo was the nickname Qian Shanxue had given him because Fist Sage had a big mouth and a sturdy build, and because his name had “river” in it. So Qian Shanxue always called Fist Sage Big Hippo.

However, only she dared to use this nickname. If anyone else called him that, Fist Sage would probably fight them to the death.

“Why don’t you let him go find Huo Silou himself? I guess if she knew your master’s current identity, she’d probably tell him everything without holding back.”

Fist Sage’s fearless attitude made Qian Shanxue grit her teeth in anger.

“Big Hippo, you’re really getting more and more arrogant. Want me to steal your precious disciple away?”

“Alright, that information is enough. Little Xue, go help Little Cutie. After we finish killing this, we’ll go to Azure Dragon City. Plans indeed can’t keep up with changes.”

Jiang Cheng gazed into the distance.

“Okay.”

In front of Jiang Cheng, Qian Shanxue was completely the image of an obedient disciple. No matter what Jiang Cheng said, she wouldn’t object.

“Only you can handle this Heartless Loli. Alright, you’ve sent her away, now it’s time to pay up.”

Fist Sage raised his hand again.

Jiang Cheng smiled, “I was serious just now, not joking. That information is already enough.”

Fist Sage: “…”

I… damn it.

Forget it, can’t get angry.

“Fifteen percent discount, I’ll tell you everything else.”

“Thirty percent discount! Plus one piece of gossip about Huo Silou.”

“Forty percent discount! Plus one piece of gossip about Ling Ruoyan.”

“Fifty percent discount! Can’t go lower, any lower and I’ll be at a loss!”

“Seventy percent discount! Just 500 gold, you don’t want me to lose everything, right?”

“Ninety percent discount! 290 gold! I’ll tell you whatever you want to know!”

“Clink…”

A crisp sound of coins colliding rang out, and suddenly there were a hundred gold coins in Fist Sage’s hand.

“This is all I have,” Jiang Cheng said helplessly.

Although he didn’t turn around, he could imagine Fist Sage’s expression right now, which must be very displeased.

“Little Chengzi, you’re really ruthless!” Fist Sage pointed at Jiang Cheng and cursed.

“Leave a way out when you do things, it’ll be easier to meet in the afterlife.”

Jiang Cheng shook his head, “I’m already dead.”

“Go to hell.”

Fist Sage didn’t know how to retort for a moment, so he could only curse.

“The Seven Demon Lords of Sin should be at these seven entrances, but the level requirement for these entrances is at least 300. I’m not sure if you’ll be affected by the level restriction.”

“I will be. Actually, I’m not planning to go there now. My current strength is too weak, and after death, I might not resurrect. It’s not suitable to go in.”

Jiang Cheng watched Qian Shanxue teaching A Silly Cutie archery knowledge, and couldn’t help but smile slightly.

“By the way, if the Seven Sins Hell is divided into territories, where is the Netherworld?”

“The Netherworld? The Netherworld is at the Harnitan River, commonly known as the Nether River. It’s the connecting channel between the human world and the Netherworld. But now it has dried up. If you want to enter the Netherworld, you’ll probably need to create the Nether River.”

Fist Sage said somewhat helplessly.

“These things are probably still far away for me,” Jiang Cheng said after hearing Fist Sage’s words, habitually rotating his right wrist.

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Cheng continued,

“I’m still no match for the Seven Demon Lords of Sin at the moment, but each of these demon lords must have a considerable force, and they might even have their shadows in the human world.”

“Even if I had the strength to kill the Seven Demon Lords of Sin at that time, dealing with their subordinates would still require a lot of effort.”

Fist Sage nodded, “Qionglou’s intelligence network is second to none. They have players arranged in every starting area. Apart from the Temple’s intelligence, few guilds can compare.”

“The information they’ve collected from various places about the Great Wasteland world forms a vast map. Although various pieces of information are still being collected, it will probably be complete in less than a year.”

“The Hell forces in the human world you mentioned really exist,” Fist Sage said solemnly. “This kind of thing shouldn’t have happened originally.”

“But since the legendary epic battle recorded in history, when Heaven fell to the human world and the Archangels bestowed gifts upon humans, Hell also began to infiltrate the human world.”

“And their forces in the human world must be particularly important to them.”

Fist Sage analyzed.

Jiang Cheng nodded in agreement, “So, rather than me going to find them, it’s better to let them come to me.”
