An ominous feeing filled his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Am I going to face some danger again?' He was troubled, but couldn't stop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Core Zone was the most likely place to find a solution, if any.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I… can just run back to Inner Zone if trouble arises, right?' Varian tried to reassure himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the more he tried, the worst he felt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'System, come out! Explain this dreaded feeling.' Varian yelled inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The feeling was akin to having a blade on his neck and he was moving his neck towards the blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Host, survive. Equal danger gives equal reward.] The System answered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'So there's a huge danger after all.' Varian wanted to bang his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the System's words, the danger wasn't a normal one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'By my estimate, the Core Zone magic beasts should be around high Level 4. The strongest is peak Level 4.' He thought as he went further and further from the safe Inner Zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Peak Level 4s should be living at absolute center. I can run away from high Level 4s. So what's the problem here?' He wondered and crossed the halfway point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The increase in aura concentration was much higher than between Outer and Inner Zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, there was bound to be a huge difference between the powers of Core and Inner Magic Beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Level 9 vs Level 8, the gap is as big as Level 8 and Level 1.' Went a saying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian didn't know if it was the truth, but the power difference between each level kept increasing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the aura's concentration spiked, he finally stopped. In front of him were lush plains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Core Zone didn't look different, but it surely 'felt' different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He focused on all his senses and perceived his surroundings. He didn't want to be attacked by rabbits or rats or something else this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Lets get to a deserted place.' Varian thought and cautiously searched the nearby mountains, caves and valleys.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To his dismay, he could find traces of magic beasts everywhere. There was no safe location.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, he found a mountain and climbed it up. There was a cliff at the end. Looking down, Varian realized plain itself was an elevated plateau.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he glanced down, there was only mist. He couldn't see the cliff bottom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'There is not a single deserted location.' Varian clutched his forehead and tried to think of a solution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he rested in the open, he'd be found. If he kept moving, he would run into an aggressive beast and that'd be the end of the story.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every single beast was a High Level 4. More importantly, there was no place to 'quietly' hunt. Even if he hunted one successfully, he'd be found out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I thought I could hunt like in Inner Zone. But now, going back to Inner Zone is a better option.' As he was about to leave, his back chilled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Graa~\" The growls prompted him to turn back in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sweat rolled down his forehead as ten purple panthers rushed towards him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They didn't run. Instead, lightning covered their bodies, and a lightning board appeared under their legs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This lightning board rushed at him at a speed beyond his current limit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Were they patrolling or something?!' Varian cursed and looked back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he ran back and fell down the cliff, he'd dead for sure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then what if he ran forward?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Ten high Level 4… dammit.' He cursed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was in a deadlock, but not for long. One was a death sentence, and the other had a slight hope of living.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian gritted his teeth and dashed forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he could just escape the first round of attacks, then maybe…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dozens of lightning bolts shot in front of him, cutting off any chance of easy escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian stopped in his tracks. 'Their attacks are too fast and too lethal.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he took even one attack head on, he'd be gravely injured. Then his speed would drop and he would not be able to dodge the next attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'What should I do?' He racked his brain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lightning board under purple panthers vanished, and they slowly walked towards him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With each step they took, dozens of lightning bolts shot at Varian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian kept backing off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Re\" A stone dropped down the cliff and Varian was aware of its fall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he kept backing off, he wanted to hear how long it took for the stone to hit the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't hear any sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian's heart raced as the panthers approached him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As death seemed inevitable, only one thought reverberated in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'If I'm going to die anyway, I'll at least bring one of you down.' His eyes turned bloodshot, and he was about to pounce on the purple panthers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a cute voice sounded directly in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Hey, are you an idiot to attack them? You will die.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if cold water was poured on his hot mind. Varian quickly asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'What should I do?' He didn't ask who it was or what it wanted. Just what he should do. To survive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The final bolt of lightnings, the ones that would kill him or thrown him down the cliff, were hovering in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Tell me!' Varian asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Jump down the cliff. You can live.' The childish voice said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lightning bolts shot at him. Varian wouldn't survive facing them. So why not try the other way?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Here goes.\" He flipped into the air and jumped down the cliff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lightning bolts exploded in the air, and Varian felt a chill down his spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he fell, the air hit him and his clothes rustled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian could only see the white fog and his heart turned restless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not even a few seconds passed, and he was already questioning his sanity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Hehe. I thought you wouldn't dare.' The cute voice sounded, and it seemed to enjoy itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Are there any dangerous beats below?' Varian quickly asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he was already falling, he should do his best. He blocked the space around him and slowed down his descent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Good presence of mind.' It complemented his actions and continued 'There are no beasts below. You'll survive if you try hard enough, though you'll break most bones.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian chose to believe it for now. He couldn't fly with his lightning level. But he could shield himself a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Space block, on the other hand, would prevent him from accelerating to dangerous speeds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Why didn't I think of this?' He face palmed and continued to space block.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't stay in the air forever, he would sooner or later run out of space power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So his goal was to block the space and decelerate whenever his descent speed went past a certain threshold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And thus, Varian continued to fall. His space power was also slowly running out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Where are you?' Varian asked in the midst of the fall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I'm in the center of the Core Dungeon. You can find me if you cross all the peak Level 4 beasts around me.' The voice answered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I don't know when I can even go there…' Varian sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I can help you get out of this Lost Dungeon.' The voice said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian thought he was hearing things, but after asking again, his heart stopped for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I will get there in 20, no 14 days.' He vowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Won't work. If you don't come in 5 days, both you and I will die.. The Abyssals are coming.'\u003C\u002Fp>",1265,"2026-06-06T07:58:11.287Z",1,"novelbin.me","b91f58f81d3af6c586ed692e9352f8cf674915d21367cfeef33ec54c7f118d97","divine-path-system-chapter-151","divine-path-system-chapter-109",1773,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdivine-path-system-cover.jpg"]
