Chapter 308: Chapter 174: The Locked Level of the Human Tribe_1

"Missionary Gao Li."

"I’ll take King of Sudden Death away now."

After Dark Fire Envoy had recovered internally, he couldn’t wait to bring Lu Ran back to headquarters.

"Brother King of Sudden Death, good opportunity, you can go to the headquarters in advance!" Gao Li spoke, genuinely happy for Lu Ran.

After all, since Lu Ran was valued by the Divine Sect, he could certainly ascend along with them eventually.

"Uh," Lu Ran hesitated for a moment.

"What, do you have any concerns?" Dark Fire Envoy asked.

"No!" replied Lu Ran.

"It’s just that I, as a person, am more fond of research than fighting."

"For example, researching how to eliminate the drawbacks of devouring souls."

"For example, how to create Artifact Spirits."

"I actually wanted to work on researching undead weapons with Brother Gao Li, but with this departure, there might be no chance..."

Dark Fire Envoy also understood that Lu Ran was a special kind of talent, not just a brash youth who only knew how to fight.

Seeing that Lu Ran’s ambitions were so broad, she said without hesitation, "It’s no problem."

"If you’re interested, once you’re at the headquarters, just speak to the Sect Hierarch yourself."

"All research projects of the Divine Sect could be opened to you, as long as you have the talent!"

"That’s good..." That was exactly what Lu Ran had been waiting for!

With this trip, he must obtain the forging and cultivation methods for the Bone Sword Thousand Blades and even the Artifact Spirits.

Meanwhile, Gao Li, seeing that Lu Ran was about to ascend to the headquarters and still had in mind to help him with Artifact Spirits research, was deeply moved.

Little did he know, if Lu Ran hadn’t triggered this hidden mission, when the 30 days were up, his Bone Sword would certainly be taken by Lu Ran for research...

As for now, with a trip to the headquarters, he could personally interact with those forging Elders, and naturally, Lu Ran also wouldn’t spare another thought for the broken Bone Sword buried in the ground.

"Let’s go." Dark Fire Envoy stretched out a hand, and a black wind wrapped around Lu Ran.

In the blink of an eye, Lu Ran found himself swept onto the Bone Dragon, its bones surprisingly slippery, and he had to cling to a section to avoid falling off.

"There’s nothing else, right?" Dark Fire Envoy asked.

"Nothing else," Lu Ran said.

"Then let’s set off." With those words, the Dark Fire Envoy directed the Bone Dragon to take flight, while Lu Ran’s gaze fell on the courtyard full of Giant Rat Beast corpses, and then on Missionary Gao Li and the taste-tester girl.

A moment of silence ensued.

"Brother King of Sudden Death, see you in the future."

At this moment, Missionary Gao Li was still waving at Lu Ran, seemingly hoping for a future encounter.

Beside him, Black Feather nodded, curious what kind of treatment Lu Ran would receive at the headquarters.

Could he really become a Saint Heir?

If so, then she also would have been the congregation accompanying a Saint Heir.

"Hmm, goodbye, and thank you."

Only Lu Ran himself knew that with this departure, there might not be another chance to meet.

He would most likely spend some time at the headquarters and then end this instance.

This Breakthrough Secret Realm would also shatter completely.

At this moment, although he knew the others were just illusions, Lu Ran still felt grateful for their help over the past half month.

As he thought this, the Bone Dragon slowly lifted off, then instantly rose into the clouds, flying toward a certain direction, as Midwood City became smaller and smaller...

...

Aboard the Bone Dragon.

The features below were no longer visible.

Lu Ran clung to a bone while Dark Fire Envoy stood at the front, gazing into the clouds.

"Your expression seems very excited,"

"Aren’t you afraid of heading to the ’Cult’s’ stronghold?"

Even without turning around, Dark Fire Envoy could see the excitement on Lu Ran’s face.

She couldn’t help but feel astonished; even if Lu Ran had a genuine interest in Necromancy, the outside world’s rumors about the Divine Sect were far from favorable.

The Death Divine Sect had always been known as the Necromancy Cult.

Wasn’t this young man worried at all?

"Afraid?" Lu Ran chuckled but did not respond.

[If it were a PVE Type Breakthrough Secret Realm, I really would be afraid.]

[But in a Secret Realm where death means I can return, what’s there to fear?]

Lu Ran now felt like a gamer who knew he could respawn; even if he faced a dragon’s den or a tiger’s lair, he would dare to venture forth.

Even if there was a legendary creature before him, he’d dare to stroke it.

However, after just a moment of hubris, Lu Ran pinched himself.

[No, I can’t get carried away.]

[What if I encounter a situation like Principal Shi Zhen, where the curse from the Secret Realm carries over...]

High in the sky, the Bone Dragon continued its journey.

Unbeknownst to Lu Ran, some other Pet Beasts of Dark Fire Envoy were already flying in different directions, even faster.

...

The headquarters of the Death Divine Sect was located above the Star-Moon Continent, yet not quite on the Star-Moon Continent.

To put it simply, the place was a "Space Secret Realm"!

It was precisely because of the special location of the headquarters that, despite its notorious reputation, the Death Divine Sect’s foundation remained unscathed.

At this moment, within the Death Space, a rainbow arc spanned the mountains, flying through space and entering a deeper Void.

In this Void, an old man in a simple black robe, with an aged face, was meditating mid-air, surrounded by the ghostly images of several dozen terrifying creatures’ souls, as if they were imprisoned in another dimension, roaring outward incessantly.

Hum.

Ripples flashed in the Void.

The rainbow bolted into the Void, and the Elder lightly reached out to grasp a soul, with an influx of information entering his mind.

"Hmm?" The old man opened his hollow eyes, showing a look of surprise.

"A Soul Chef..."

"Could he be a catalyst for change?" The Elder shook his head slightly, stepping out of the Void, and the souls behind him also vanished without a trace.
