Apocalypse: Infinite Evolution Starts from Attribute Allocation

Chapter 282 - 282: He was Tricked!



Wang Ye wasn’t the only one who was shocked.

The white-robed youth was also a little dumbfounded. He didn’t expect to see Wang Ye here, so he was stunned for a moment.

“This is great! I’ve finally bumped into someone!” Wang Ye couldn’t contain his joy as he ran toward the white-robed youth. “Brother, did you come from passage 1 too?”

“I…” The white-robed youth was not used to Wang Ye’s enthusiasm.

Was this the cunning cosmic-level human who was a money grubber?

“Right, do we have the same mission?” Wang Ye lowered his voice and gave him a look.

“What are you talking about?” The white-robed youth’s eyes lit up, but he remained expressionless.

“Do you not have a mission?” Wang Ye looked puzzled.

“What’s your mission?” The white-robed youth looked at Wang Ye warily and tried to sound him out.

“Why should I tell you? ” Wang Ye retreated cautiously. “Since we have different missions, let’s split up here.”

“Wait!

II

Wang Ye’s series of attacks threw the white-robed youth into chaos. Seeing that the former was about to leave, he immediately called out to stop him.

Although he despised Wang Ye’s character and strength, he admired his resourcefulness. To survive in this desperate situation, he had to borrow Wang Ye’s ability.

“Why did you enter passage 1?” The white-robed youth had imprinted preconceived notions in his mind, so he did not suspect anything else. “Didn’t you say that there was something fishy about passage 1?”

“I lied.” Wang Ye didn’t even blink. “I thought the first passage would be safe while the second one would ultimately lead to failure. Since I’ve earned enough money, safety should be my priority, no? But I didn’t expect… Sigh.”

The white-robed youth sneered in his heart.

What was this called? Cleverness may overreach itself.

However, when he thought about how he had also entered passage 1 and was now in a desperate situation… The white-robed youth frowned, feeling frustrated.

Who would have thought that the seemingly harmless passage 1 would be a trap?

“The black realm’s master is too hateful! Passage 1 obviously had the cosmic adventurers’ logo on it, yet it set us up!” The white-robed youth gritted his teeth and said.

“Yeah!” Wang Ye echoed indignantly. “It’s too despicable!”

“What do you think he wants?” The more the white-robed youth thought about it, the angrier he got. “To think he wants us to kill 10 cosmic humans in the chosen passage before letting us go!”

“He’s using us.” Wang Ye echoed every word.

This kind of technique was especially useful for girls. Not only could he get a lot of information out of the other party by resonating with the latter’s emotions, but it could also greatly increase his favorability.

He had more or less figured it out by now.

Just as he had guessed, from beginning to end, Senior Wu Yuan had set up passage 1 as a trap. He vividly expressed his hatred for the cosmic adventurers.

Rather, it was his hatred for “cowardly” cosmic adventurers.

After all, Senior Wu Yuan didn’t attack the other cosmic adventurers. He seemed to have suffered greatly due to them.

“Ten! How can I possibly fulfill that requirement?!” The white-robed youth said indignantly. “Which cosmic human who dares to enter passages 7 to 10 are without some skill? Which one of them isn’t a dragon among men? If one did not have absolute confidence in their strength, how would they dare to enter?! Would you have dared to enter, Wang Ye?”

“Of course not.” Wang Ye shook his head.

“Exactly!” The white-robed youth mocked himself, “Even I don’t dare, let alone you, a Cosmic Lifeform. With our strength, let alone killing 10 cosmic humans in the chosen passage, it would be difficult to even kill one!”

“There are only two targets now.” Wang Ye pondered.

“Who are they?” The white-robed youth’s eyes lit up.

“One is An Jinxiao, and the other is Tangque Loumen,” Wang Ye said.

The white-robed youth’s face turned pale. “I told you. It’s impossible. I can’t beat Tangque Loumen. An Jinxiao… Heh, I might not even be able to get close to her.”

“Let’s join forces. There’s still hope.” Wang Ye suggested.

The white-robed youth looked at Wang Ye and sneered. “10000 combat prowess plus 1 combat prowess only becomes 10001 combat prowess. What’s the use?”

“My combat prowess might not be good, but my brain is. With my resourcefulness and your strength, there’s still a chance of survival,” Wang Ye said.

“That sounds plausible.” The white-robed youth’s eyes lit up.

He trusted Wang Ye’s wisdom. Coupled with his strength, the two of them could take the lead after joining forces.

He would not lose out by agreeing to this suggestion!

The two quickly reached an agreement to cooperate.

Wang Ye learned a lot of information.

The white-robed youth was called Xiyan Liang. He was a two-star adventurer. As for his strength… Those who could pass through the thunder origin core barrier alone were not weak.

“Brother Xiyan, have you encountered all three types of thunder-fusion dark beasts here?” Wang Ye asked as they traveled.

“I’ve beaten them all. The thunder-fusion dark beast that has fused with the White Lightning bloodline is the most terrifying,” Xiyan Liang mumbled. “Once you attack it, you will suffer the backlash of the white lightning. There’s no way to fight it.”

White Lightning bloodline?

Wang Ye was somewhat taken aback. He had thought that the white lightning was a type of treasure.

“Can you fight the largest thunder-fusion dark beast?” Wang Ye asked.

“Of course. My bloodline can restrain it, though it will take some effort.” Xiyan Liang nodded.

“Impressive.” Wang Ye gave him a thumbs up.

Thank God He didn’t act rashly. Before he knew Xiyan Liang’s background, there was a risk.

Soon, Wang Ye witnessed Xiyan Liang’s bloodline.

With his superb sword skills, Xiyan Liang easily broke through the high-dimensional suppression of the huge thunder-fusion dark beast.

He was completely unaffected by the suppression of the higher dimension. He moved around and attacked the thunder-fusion dark beast, relying on his exquisite sword techniques to slowly grind it to death.

Although it took a lot of time, there was no danger.

“What bloodline is this? It’s so powerful!” Wang Ye looked envious.

“Have you heard of the Efflugent Body?” Xiyan Liang smiled confidently and sheathed his sword.

“A powerful bloodline!” While Wang Ye was amazed, he looked at the dark substance core of the huge thunder fusion dark beast from the corner of his eye.

Xiyan Liang didn’t absorb it, as if he couldn’t.

“As expected of a student from the Supreme Human Academy. You’re really knowledgeable.” Xiyan Liang was very satisfied with Wang Ye’s envious gaze. He raised his head and said proudly, “My bloodline allows me to ignore high-dimensional, realm, and aura suppression. Therefore, high-dimensional suppression is ineffective against me.”

“Tsk, tsk. What a good bloodline.” Wang Ye looked at Xiyan Liang and thought to himself.

This powerful bloodline was of middle grade in the second tier, and it was also the lowest target for him in his trip to the black realm this time.

Should he take it? He would decide then.

“Are you not taking the dark substance core?” Wang Ye probed.

“I’m taking it, of course.” Xiyan Liang picked up the dark substance core. “This thing is really strange. The dark substance cores of the dark beasts outside can be stored in the storage space. This is the only one that can’t be stored.”

Of course not. The dark beasts outside were creatures of the black realm, but the thunder-fusion dark beasts here were created through the Realm Item Spell.

Wang Ye looked at the dark substance core that Xiyan Liang had placed in his pocket and smiled.

The core contained cosmic energy that was enough for him to reach 35% progress as a level 8 cosmic warrior!

One more and he would be able to break through to cosmic level 9!

He would temporarily store it on Xiyan Liang.

The two explored and soon encountered the second type of thunder fusion dark beast.

Wang Ye didn’t hold back and killed it. His talent of Immortality made Xiyan Liang gasp in admiration and envy.

“It’s just an excellent talent. I can’t compare to you,” Wang Ye said humbly.

“It’s different. Although your talent doesn’t increase your combat prowess, its life-saving effect is really amazing. If I could, I’d rather trade with you. I’d be more assured when risking my life in the cosmic,” Xiyan Liang said.

The grass was always greener on the other side.

An exchange was impossible, but his bloodline could possibly become his.

“Oh right, you really don’t want the dark substance core?” Xiyan Liang asked in surprise.

“I can’t put it in my storage space. What do I need it for? It’s also too heavy to carry,” Wang Ye laughed.

He couldn’t take it. Since the core was triggered with a touch, wouldn’t he be exposed?

Xiyan Liang picked up the dark substance core. There was a hint of envy in his laughter. “With your current wealth, you really don’t care about these little things. However, they are still worth a lot of money outside.”

“First, I have to be able to get out,” Wang Ye said.

“Yeah, I wonder if there’s any hope.” Xiyan Liang sighed.

Wang Ye didn’t hesitate. “Of course there is. When the second batch of cosmic nations’ experts enters, with our strength, we can definitely kill 20 of them!”

“Good!” Xiyan Liang smiled at Wang Ye.

Twenty?

Ten would do.

When the time came, he would be the one to make a move. After he preserved his life, Wang Ye’s life… What did it have to do with him?

A cosmic day passed very quickly.

The two lucky people obtained a total of 16 dark substance cores, of which small thunder-origin dark beasts were the most, accounting for half.

As for the second and third types of dark substance cores, they obtained four pieces each.

Wang Ye was very satisfied. The efficiency was much higher than if he hunted alone.

A man with an unlucky BUFF was indeed extraordinary.

“Brother Xiyan, look! There are three stairways here!” Wang Ye feigned surprise.

Xiyan Liang’s eyes lit up as he quickly rushed over.

Suddenly, his expression changed slightly. He saw a valiant, long-haired beautiful swordswoman standing in the middle of the three stairways, looking at them with sharp eyes.

Not good! It was An Jinxiao!

Xiyan Liang didn’t expect to encounter An Jinxiao here. He pretended to be calm.

If he turned around and ran now, not only would it arouse suspicion, but it would also be more likely to be dangerous.

The best way to deal with the situation was to be calm, ignore the other party, and then pass by.

“Hi, Sister Xiao!” Wang Ye greeted her with a smile.

Xiyan Liang’s heart skipped a beat, and his expression changed.

What was he doing?!

What was Wang Ye doing?

Even if he wanted to hunt, he should pick a weaker one!

“Who is he?” An Jinxiao stared at Xiyan Liang.

Huff!

Xiyan Liang let out a long breath and calmed down. Now that things had come to this, he had to calm down and not panic.

“Umm…” Xiyan Liang was about to speak.

“His name is Xiyan Liang, he’s from passage 1.” Wang Ye laughed.

Pu!

Xiyan Liang almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Was Wang Ye crazy?

“Passage 1?” An Jinxiao was confused. “How did he get to passage 7? What is he here for?”

Xiyan Liang’s brain was working at high speed as he prepared to explain. He had to save himself!

“He’s here to kill us.” Wang Ye smiled. “Passage 1 connects to passages 7 to 10. Any cosmic human who enters must kill 10 humans from the chosen passage to survive.”

Xiyan Liang was dumbfounded. He could sense An Jinxiao’s hidden killing intent.

What happened?

What had he just experienced?

What was going on?

Wait a minute!

What Wang Ye just said was…

“Us”?!

He was also from passage 7?

Xiyan Liang’s eyes widened as he looked in disbelief at Wang Ye, who was smiling at him from behind. He felt as if his body was spinning and his head was buzzing.

He had been tricked!
