CHAPTER 404: CHAPTER 321: SPEEDRUN UNDEAD LAKE! CHEN · WOOL PLUCKER · MO

"Gu~"

The Sky-reaching Ancient Coin was tossed high up, but it continued spinning in mid-air.

The event that Chen Meng wanted to predict involved a powerful entity, beyond the capabilities of the Sky-reaching Ancient Coin.

Level too high, unable to predict!

"Mengmeng, don’t worry."

Chen Mo said calmly.

He had quite a few cards up his sleeve now, entries like [Last Drop of Blood], Life Spring, Soul Protecting God Lamp, Thunder Dragon Scale...

There might be risks of trial failure, but there’s definitely more than enough to save his life.

"Be careful!"

Chen Meng initially wanted Guangyu to cast some holy blessing buffs on Chen Mo, but considering the attribute conflict, she gave up.

In the end, she let the Bright Unicorn cast a Light Dispelling on Chen Mo’s clothes, able to forcibly disperse a white mist for dozens of meters.

"I have the Soul Protecting God Lamp, which can disperse the mist."

"Put it on."

Chen Meng said in an unquestionable tone.

Guangyu could sense Chen Mo’s life status through this Light Dispelling, and if there was danger, she could also go over to support him.

"Charge!!"

Chen Mo equipped the Corpse Silver Horse with entries like [Swift as Wind] and [Last Drop of Blood]. Once everything was ready, he began running wild on horseback.

He planned to let Youyou ride the waves and cross this Lake of the Undead!

"Hiss!"

As soon as its hooves stepped into the lake water, the Corpse Silver Horse let out a hiss.

It felt as if its body was about to catch fire, and a severe pain surged through its entire body!

But Youyou wasn’t neighing because of the pain, it was because... of excitement!

As an Undead Creature, Youyou, unlike other living beings, did not have rich emotions.

So when Chen Mo sat on its back, that unprecedented feeling of joy made it truly sense the meaning of its existence.

Just like joy, pain too brought a sense of its own existence to Youyou, so it didn’t resist, and was even very excited.

Chen Mo’s expression was peculiar.

Shoot, what if my Spiritual Beast is an M?!

Not long after, Chen Mo noticed that although Youyou’s body was gradually becoming transparent, the Soul Fire was growing darker.

This Lake of the Undead seemed to possess the ability to help undead type spirit beasts refine their soul and spirit!

"If I transform into an undead form, could it increase my spiritual power too?"

Chen Mo mused silently.

Meanwhile, he realized that although he hadn’t touched the lake water, his feet were slowly becoming transparent.

His body had already begun to transform into an undead state.

The Soul Protecting God Lamp in his hand emitted a cyan-blue light, bringing him a trace of warmth, but it still could not stop the undead transformation of his body.

"It might be the power of the law. Whatever, I’ll just rely on myself then!"

Thinking this, Chen Mo equipped himself with the [Undead Knight] entry.

Pain!

Intense pain!

In an instant, Chen Mo felt a surge of severe pain from deep within his mind and throughout his body!

Thrilling!

Very thrilling!

The moment Chen Mo transformed into an Undead Knight, Youyou beneath him let out a hum of extreme pleasure.

Extreme pleasure coupled with extreme pain brought ultimate joy!

Chen Mo endured the pain and carefully examined himself.

Sure enough, his spiritual power was becoming more refined, and the Spiritual Space also began to expand into the void at an astonishing rate!

The lake water of this Lake of the Undead had the benefit of honing the spirit of undead creatures!

Perhaps this was a "perk" for the trialist.

"It seems I need to find something to divert my attention."

The severe pain from his entire body made it hard for him to bear, Chen Mo thought silently.

He wasn’t a fan of masochism.

After thinking for a bit, he pulled out a Spiritual Fishing Pole named "Red Carp" purchased earlier in the Earth’s core world, and swapped on bait that undead type spirit beasts loved, [Undead Bread].

This was a type of food with effects similar to "catnip," which had a deadly attraction to undead creatures.

Chen Mo cast a line and sat down, beginning to fish.

The DNA of the angler within him was stirred!

He was curious whether there were any fish in this Lake of the Undead!

With the glow of the Light Dispelling, people on the shore could vaguely see Chen Mo’s silhouette at that moment.

When they saw a skeleton sitting atop a Corpse Silver Horse, skillfully casting and beginning to fish calmly.

Everyone fell silent.

"Huh? How does he still feel like fishing?"

"This image has quite an artistic feel, I’m gonna record a video and post it on TikTok."

"I wish I could be as carefree as him someday."

The Spirit Masters of the Dongxia delegation, people from Neon Country, and even several Grand Master figures couldn’t help but have such thoughts.

Five minutes later, the "Red Carp" wobbled slightly.

A fish had taken the bait.

Chen Mo was somewhat delighted, this Lake of the Undead indeed had fish!

So he pulled up the rod, but found it easy to lift.

Soon, an Undead Fathead Fish floated to the surface.

It was about the length of an arm, with small eyes and a wise yet not very intelligent look, still munching on the Undead Bread after being hooked.

Heads may fall, blood may flow, but the bread mustn’t be lost!

Without a second thought, Chen Mo placed it into a small compartment within the Heart of the Sea.

Ever since the Starsea moved into Chen Mo’s Spiritual Space, the Heart of the Sea had been transformed by Chen Mo into a small fish pond.

It’s currently divided into three zones.

One with seawater, for breeding sea fish, one with freshwater, for breeding freshwater fish, and another with magma, for breeding Magma Spirit Fish previously caught in the Earth’s core world.
