RETURN OF THE EMPEROR

CHAPTER 17: MONSTERS IN THE MINE

The next day, Myro called Shi Yan and Zhi Li to help him at the mine this time. Myro's goal now was not to bring the training disciples in the mine, but rather to completely clear these mines all the way to level 4 from the monsters. Therefore, Myro brought 2 elders who had quite strong strength compared to the others.

Perhaps Rena or Gristi were stronger than Shi Yan, but there should be people guarding the sect during Myro's time in the mine so that Myro did not bring them.

However, it was a few days before the war began, if the enemy took advantage of this opportunity to injure the Myro elder in order to reduce Myro's fighting strength in the war, then Myro would suffer a loss.

Every elder or fellow Myro was a talented person, so losing 1 of them was a huge loss.

Myro, Shi Yan and Zhi Li gathered in front of the mine door, Myro looked at them carefully "You guys are indeed strong, but the enemies present in this mine are also not to be underestimated. Especially when you're at level 4, you need to be more careful".

"We understand, patriarch", replied the 2 men.

"Then, let's go!" said Myro who immediately jumped towards the mine pit.

This time Myro did not walk through the stairs anymore because he did not bring disciples, either Shi Yan or Zhi Li could fly so they could jump directly down the mine.

When they arrived back at level 1, they were walking on an empty path, most of the monsters here had already been cleaned up which made them not have to waste much time.

Even so, they still met some monsters in the middle of the road that made Myro's face become gloomy "Yesterday all the monsters here are no longer there, no longer, but with less than a day then there were already some monsters that had re-emerged due to the energy in the mine. It seems that I am still underestimating the power of the energy in this mine".

Finally they arrived in front of an iron gate, Myro opened the gate and an even stronger aura could soon be felt, this was a much stronger level 2 aura.

They walked through level 2 without any problems, most of the monsters here had the power of Soul Wandering to True Fondation.

While the strongest monster guarding the gate towards level 3 was a golden-feathered mouse with the strength of a level 1 Nascent Soul, that mouse was still dead under Shi Yan's kick.

Up to level 3, Myro's face changed slightly because most of the monsters here had Transcendent or Saint to Saint King powers.

This monster at level 3 was much stronger than Myro had previously thought, even Myro this time took his sword to help Shi Yan fight. Especially against dozens of high-level Saint King stage bats.

As they approached the final door, they found 3 giant bats hanging above the ceiling of the mine.

This bat is very large, it is more than 5 meters high.

Myro drew his sword without hesitation while the 3 bats were still unconscious of "Freedom of the Endless Night of stage 6, Red Moon Sword!".

"Dash!".

The Myro sword slashed at 2 bats while Zhi Li and Shi Yan attacked the other bats simultaneously.

Blood flew from the bodies of the 2 bats that Myro slashed, they just opened their eyes and thought of attacking. But as blood continued to fall from their bodies, the 2 bodies of the giant bat had already become corpses before it could attack Myro.

"Shelf!".

The bodies of the 2 bats hanging in the sky fell to the ground violently, Myro stepped back so that their blood would not hit him.

Zhi Li and Shi Yan also managed to knock down the other bat, Shi Yan hit the bat after he joined Ganesha while Zhi Li used his net ability to cut off these bats.

Looking at the 3 high-level Saint King bats that had already been defeated, Myro said gloomily towards the iron gate that was already in front of his eyes, that door was a gate towards level 4 "The last enemy of level 3 is Saint King, no doubt that enemies at level 4 must be all Martial Soldiers up, prepare yourself! When you are not careful, the dead are you! Like these 3 bats, they take for granted our arrival which led to their death without the slightest resistance".

Zhi Li and Shi Yan nodded, Then Myro stepped forward to open the level 4 gate. Even Myro did not underestimate this level 4, according to Myro monsters at level 4 this would be much more difficult than fighting the Land Bear Sect.

...----------------...

The Patriarch of the Land Bear Sect was still very confident about his victory against the Zodiac Sect, he had not made any preparations for this war at all. According to him, victory is in sight, therefore he still does nothing every day to face this war.

Different from his patriarch, the eldest elder of the Land Bear Sect continued to feel worried. He could not sleep every night as bad premonitions continued to haunt him, he felt that their sect would lose to the enemy, no matter what way they did then they would definitely lose.

If it was someone else then they would definitely not care about this premonition, but the oldest elder was different. He had run away from death many times from believing the bad premonition in his heart, so he also decided this time that he had to act or they would lose.

He had tried to convince the patriarch many times, but the patriarch had never heard of him and only considered him to lack rest. The Patriarch gave him rest until the day before the war, so that he would not bother him again.

Under the desperation of the patriarch not believing it, the oldest elder could only go in search of a murderer.

He summoned an assassin from the Poison Skull to kill as many elders or even patriarchs of the Zodiac Sect as possible.

The Poison Skull was a group that was not part of any sect, but they gained recognition that their strength was at the same level as any tier 9 sect.

The Poison Skull sent a tier 4 Martial Warrior assassin to go to the Zodiac Sect, according to him this was enough to clear the entire Zodiac Sect which was a fake sect.

The eldest elder of the Land Bear Sect also threw away his worries, although the assassins sent in were weaker than their patriarchal cultivation but the assassins were more expert at killing. So strength is not everything, experience and knowledge are very important for the killer. If these assassins were weaker, the oldest elders would not bother to pay their high price to kill the enemies in the Zodiac Sect.

A level 4 Martial Warrior assassin departed from the Poison Skull headquarters secretly heading to the Zodiac Sect.
