349. 74 Battlefield of the Immortals (2)
“The land where the Immortals fought and died?”
[Yes.]
Taesan frowned.
“I don’t hear anything about clearing it.”
Immortal. A being beyond mortality.
Although Taesan is evaluated as standing on the borderline of mortality, it has not reached them yet.
[Calm down. It’s a story of the past anyway. Now it’s just a land where everyone died and wasted.]
Barbabamba spoke slowly.
[A long time ago, some immortals got together and started a war. They chose the world called Valhalluni as their battlefield and tried to kill each other there.]
“Even immortals wage war among themselves.”
［It has reached the stage, but that is why it is more insecure. Individual greed and emotions are no different from mortals,
Barbaba continued.
[At first, it was a war that started for trivial reasons, but as the war went on, emotions began to intensify. They even attracted other immortals and moved to kill the opponent in earnest. Dozens of immortals fought and confronted each other. You can also guess the ending.]
“Are they all dead?”
[This is the correct answer. Dozens of immortals all fell dead. It became a land of death that no one could approach.]
“What are you telling me to do in a place like that?”
[Your job is simple. The immortals died, but the remains did not disappear. Those remains are the goal of the 74th floor quest.]
Taesan shook his head at Barbababamba’s words.
“I think that would be impossible.”
Although he had already died a long time ago, the remains of the immortal would have great power in themselves. It hadn’t occurred to him that the mortal Taishan could interfere.
[There is no need to bring harm. You
just need to find the location where the remains are located.]
Barbabamba handed the black flags to Taesan.
[If you find the remains, plant the flag in the ground. That’s all you have to do.]
Enter the world of Valhalluni and find the remains of an immortal and plant a flag there. That was all of the quest. At first glance, it seemed very easy.
But Tae-san knew. That this quest was the reason the guides were blocked here.
[Even if the idiots right before you joined forces, it took a very long time. Thanks to that, it was frustrating and difficult.]
Balbabamba’s grumbling proved that Taesan’s thoughts were correct. Barbabamba glanced at the ghost.
[When you think about it, you deserve to see it that way. At least he was much better than those idiots.]
[It’s sad compared to the people who were blocked.]
The ghost answered. Balba Bamba continued.
[For reference,
there is no set reward for this quest. The rewards increase as you find more remains. So far, no one has found more than one remains, but you might be able to do it.] After
accepting the flag, Taesan remained silent. Towards such a mountain, Balba Bamba opened his mouth.
[Could you please explain. This quest is a quest directly commissioned by the gods.]
“Is that so?”
Find remains and document their location.
It was like a quest to protect the remains of an immortal.
[Originally, the gods had no intention of interfering with Valhalluni. I was thinking of leaving it there. However, those on the other side began to take an interest in the discarded power.]
The only beings on the other side were the old gods who had been banished from the world.
[There is a very unstable state where the space itself is distorted by the collision of immortals. If a being at the level of a transcendental being recklessly tries to intervene, it may
collapse, leaving a gap for the Gosin to interfere .]
Therefore, mortals send adventurers who can withstand the power that spreads over Valhalluni to find out the location of the remains. That seemed to be the reason for the design of the 74th floor.
[There will be more and more quests like this. It is safe to say that this is the starting point. Is there anything more curious?]
“How many remains of the immortals remain?”
[If the remains of all the immortals remain after a normal fight… I’m guessing there are five of them now.]
Five. Taesan nodded.
“Hang in there.”
When sparring with Ariel, she even used a skill like Apostleship. I had to wait for the cooldown of that skill.
After a day, Taesan said to Barbabamba.
Barbababamba expressed power. Space collapsed and began to metastasize.
[For reference, you can return to this quest any number of times in the middle. Even those who have cleared before this have repeated countless challenges and returns, so
do as you wish.]
Taesan nodded.
His body moved to Valhalluni.
Taesan looked around.
All that could be seen was the gray strength.
I couldn’t feel the living, breathing life, and only overwhelming power was drifting in the air.
And the mountain was covered with a blue curtain that seemed to have been spread by Balba Bamba.
[Leave the tent. Then I’ll be waiting for the clear.]
After that, Barbaba Bamba’s presence disappeared.
Taishan stepped over the veil.
At the same time, the force began to trample Taishan.
«Uh»
The.
Taesan groaned.
The distorted space tries to collapse the whole body. Fragments of the immortal dissolved in the air trample the mortal mind
.
Just by standing here, the feeling of collapsing hit my whole body.
I can’t stand it alone. Taesan, who judged quickly, gathered spirits.
[You activated Apostleization [Darkness and Chaos].] As
the force and power wrapped around the mountain, the pressure that had been trampling on the whole body lessened a little.
‘It’s completely different from the world of Harfran.’
In Hafran’s world, the will of the world itself was hostile to Taesan and was trying to kill it
.
However, the power scattered in Valhalluni was not meant to exclude Taesan.
was just here.
That’s all, but that alone was putting tremendous strain on the mortal mind and body.
Taesan gathered up his spirit and will and endured.
Taesan moved slowly.
Taesan moved.
A place where countless immortals collided to kill each other.
As a result, this place became a space similar to the realm of the immortals.
Taesan gathered the demons. He opened a passage to the devil and activated black magic.
[You activate Lerazie’s area detection.]
Keying.
Magi jumps out of Tae-san’s body and tries to run to inform Tae-san of all directions.
but can’t come out
The moment it was about to come out of Taesan’s body, it was annihilated by the force that spread through space.
“You can’t even use black magic properly.”
It was already a state in which a force more powerful than black magic existed in the entire space. It was impossible for demonic things to spread.
Magic would be no different. Taesan clicked his tongue and gathered his energy and will.
What spread in space was the realm of immortals.
But there is no owner of that power.
then.
“Back off.”
[You have activated the declaration of exclusion.]
The power that engulfed the space with the words of the spirit is pushed back very little. Tae-san doesn’t miss the chance and gathers demons again
.
[You activated Lerazie’s area detection.]
[You activated Forced Amplification.]
Only then will the demonic energy be emitted as Taesan willed.
But it’s not much different. It only goes to the place Taesan pushed out with the declaration of exclusion, and after that, it is trampled on and disappears.
‘I can’t do this.’
understratum. Area detection was not properly used even in the shadow area.
However, at that time, I was able to get information that the shadows ate them. So, I was able to attack by gathering those shadows and spreading enough detection that they couldn’t eat them.
It was different this time. It was impossible to read unless the entire power contained in the space was removed.
The commanding command, which exerts an absolute effect on power without an owner, also did not have a great effect, perhaps because of the difference in rank. I had
to risk my life even to move forward
. The power of detection did not work, and it was impossible to aim for gaps like in the base layer.
‘Was there a reason for being blocked for a long time?’
Even though the guides of sin joined forces, they stayed here for tens and hundreds of years.
It wouldn’t be strange if it was this floor. It must have been cleared by repeating challenges and giving up and gaining information little by little.
Taesan asked the ghost.
“How long did it take you?”
[me? It must have taken a… three years? It ended quickly.]
Considering that the ghost was alone without anyone’s help, it was obviously extremely fast.
“I need to change my method.”
Taesan thought.
A power that spreads without a master.
realm of immortality.
And the remains of immortals have great power.
Will Taesan be able to read that power?
It’s worth a try.
[You have activated Incarnation of Nature.]
[You have activated the King’s Vessel.] Your
rank and power rise.
Taesan gathered even the power contained in the ring and wrapped it around himself.
and contemplate
It’s not about spreading power.
It was to read the power that suppressed oneself and, conversely, to identify the location of the remains that were radiating that power.
It would be impossible for mere mortals,
but now Taesan is both mortal and immortal. It spans the borderline. It was quite possible.
Close your eyes and quietly grasp the force pressing on you from all sides.
As a result, it was found that something direct force was being applied in the left direction, not simply at the level of spreading in space.
found.
Taesan opened his eyes and started to walk.
The further they went, the stronger the pressure of power. In the middle, the space
twisted and sucked everything that approached.
Shaking off with strength and force, Taishan barely reached the remains of the immortal.
It was a corpse of a human form that was all decayed.
Even though they didn’t come close, the poisonous air was trying to infiltrate the inside of Taesan, and the distorted immortals were running amok.
Judging that it was dangerous to approach any further, Taesan took out the flag.
As soon as the flag was planted on the floor, a huge curtain was formed around the flag
.
[Quest completed.]
The ghost laughed.
[It took less than an hour.]
It was a quest that took an incalculable amount of time for him to become a guide to sin for three years. I finished that in an hour.
But at the same time I could understand.
The guides of sin invested countless hours in clearing the 74th floor.
In the process, they became stronger
. Vishnu was able to use the king’s world, and Shaian succeeded in being able to use the five symbals in a limited way.
As a result, they succeeded in clearing the 74th floor.
And now Taesan was stronger than the guides of sin that had become so strong.
It was only natural that Taesan, who had reached the boundary in the first place, could easily clear the 74th floor.
“hmm.”
Quest cleared.
However, Taishan did not return to the labyrinth.
said Barbabamba. There are five immortal remains here.
Taishan has only found one so far.
And now he was able to find five of them.
But there was a problem.
‘The duration is too short.’
Apostleization lasts two hours. The incarnation of nature is an hour, and the king’s vessel is not too long.
Without these three skills, Taishan could not overcome the pressure here.
Other methods are needed to find the rest of the remains.
After thinking for a while, Taesan thought of a skill.
Transcendence skill. Black.
The power of the old god beyond the providence and law that eats up everything.
‘Let’s try it.’
Taesan drew black.
Level up with skill
