Chapter 223: Chapter 192: The Golden Light at the Bottom of the Tomb_1

Hearing the escalating chaos outside, Mu You knew he couldn’t dally any longer.

Considering this, he stealthily crawled to a cluster of grass near the stone wall and summoned a ’Wooden Clone’ from the bushes.

He then ordered the clone to circle around and run towards the tomb as if it hadn’t noticed the Troll Berserker, charging into the tomb’s ten meters vicinity.

"Roar!"

The Berserker guarding the tomb suddenly opened his eyes, hoisting his giant axe, and let out a roar as if warning him not to come closer. However, there were no signs of him pursuing after.

"He’s not falling for it?"

Mu You was surprised, was this troll too cool-headed?

Left with no choice, Mu You decided to make the decision to go all out and took control of the clone to pick up a stone from the ground. He threw it in the troll’s direction, although not at the troll, but at the tombstone beside it.

The stone hit the tombstone without causing any damage, but this disrespectful action finally enraged the troll.

"Roar!!"

The Troll Berserker roared angrily, his eyes turning blood red, and chased after him with his giant axe.

Mu You immediately took control of the clone to flee, leading the Troll Berserker out. He then sprinted desperately through the tunnel, running as far as he could.

On the other hand, he himself had performed a roll to easily reach the tomb’s entrance, and with the fastest speed, placed the Spirit Niche on top of the grave.

As the array formed, the Spirit Niche started absorbing the remains again. Simultaneously, a notification appeared in Mu You’s mind.

[Absorbing remains, estimated to complete in 299 seconds...]

"Huh?"

Mu You was startled. He almost thought he had misread it, and looked again, only to find that it really was 299 seconds, a whole five minutes...

Why would it take so long?

Puzzled, Mu You looked at the inscription on the tombstone.

The tomb’s owner was War God Aroman, a great general in the ancient times of the Troll tribe. He was brave and good at fighting. With his iron-blooded attitude, he led the Trolls during the barbaric period, leaving behind a land where they could survive amidst intense competition from other races.

No wonder this troll received such a high-standard treatment after death. This guy, being given the title of War God, must have been one of the founding heroes of the Troll Tribe. His status was much more prestigious than that of a normal tribal chief.

This troll’s time of death had exceeded two thousand years, but the energy in the remains hadn’t dissipated over time like normal high-rank Trolls. Instead, they were very well preserved.

Mu You was immediately filled with anticipation. Two minutes of absorption was enough to get the purple ashes. Now that it was reaching five minutes, there might be a chance to get the golden ashes!

Of course, despite his anticipation, staying here safely for five minutes under such dangerous circumstances was also a huge challenge for him!

At this moment, his clone’s perspective was still amidst the frantic escape. Luckily, the clone had a lot of health. As long as it chose not to confront the Trolls directly, it wouldn’t die easily when running with all its might.

However, Mu You was aware that, no matter what, it wouldn’t last five minutes. He had to make some other moves.

After thinking for a moment, Mu You removed the Spirit Niche, input magic power, and summoned two Trolls.

The Spirit Niche right now, even though it wasn’t overflowing, already had fourteen Skulls. The summoned Trolls, both of them reached level twelve.

Mu You immediately sent them out and then summoned four Skeleton Soldiers using the Zombie Summon. Luckily, this place was full of bones, providing no shortage of bodies to use.

Having sent out all these summonings, and following the clone’s lead, they frantically ran in all directions causing chaos and distraction.

For a while, the whole grotto was thrown into even more tumult.

The two Trolls were high-level, not easy to kill, and the Zombie Skeletons were almost indestructible. Under the relentless pursuit of the ghosts and Trolls, they managed to survive obstinately.

Until they were completely destroyed, Mu You would immediately summon new Trolls and Zombie Beasts.

Only by continuously sending out summons to muddle the waters could he have a chance to fish in those troubled waters.

He wasn’t too worried about other ghosts and Trolls. These summons were enough to delay them for a long time. The one deserving of his attention was the wise Berserker from earlier.

This guy seemed to have an excessive obsession with this tomb. After chasing out a while, he might turn back to check on it.

And reality was just as he expected.

After the Berserker killed the Wooden Clone and mindlessly pursued another Zombie Skeleton, it seemed to have realized something when the distance from the tomb was increasing. Suddenly, it dropped the Skeleton and sprinted towards the tomb.

"Tsk, so it won’t work..."

Mu You clicked his tongue and glanced back at the progress of the Spirit Niche.

The countdown still had 96 seconds left. Right now, the fifteenth Skull below the Spirit Niche had already begun to glow faintly golden.

It really was golden ash!

Mu You was even more reluctant to give up, and now it seemed that a huge battle was inevitable.

Mu You summoned Little Spider, letting it find a good hiding spot in advance, preparing for an ambush.

About thirty seconds later, when the countdown had only one minute left, the Berserker finally rushed back, appearing about ten meters in front of the tomb.

Upon seeing the shrouded tomb from afar, the Berserker’s eyes widened, his muscles bulged, and he let out an incredibly furious roar. Hoisting his giant axe, he charged towards Mu You.
