Chapter 449: The Blood Moon Maiden and the Nether Moon Maiden

~6 min read 1,078 words

After reaching the Fourth Turn, Su Ming's leveling speed slowed down immediately because the experience required was too vast.

It was not just him; all class-changers were the same.

Su Ming looked around and discovered that the light of the formation had completely solidified.

In the center of the formation, a historical inscription was revealed.

He stepped forward to examine the information on the inscription.

This was a unique language of this dungeon, which he could not understand, but by using the Eye of Insight, he could comprehend it.

【Inscription: The twin moons fell to the earth; one descended as the Nether Moon Maiden, the other as the Blood Moon Maiden. The two were mortal enemies, warring against each other for a century.

In the end, their battle caused a moonlight magic explosion, turning all living beings here into Ghost-kind, forming the current state of this dungeon world.】

So, the history of this dungeon was like this.

If the human nations on the Blue Star continued to war against each other, perhaps they would also perish and eventually fall into the state of a dungeon world...

Su Ming immediately used the Eye of Insight to check the detailed information of the mountain-peak formation beneath his feet.

If it were a negative formation, he would immediately use the Heaven-Spirit Demon-Breaking Sword to destroy the formation eye and terminate its operation.

【Nether Moon Remains Stealth Formation】

【This formation protects the tomb of the Nether Moon Maiden. She has died, but she created countless nether spirits to protect her remains. When all the remains are destroyed, the formation will break.】

The formation shone to the extreme, then suddenly dimmed all at once.

The formation shattered, and an unremarkable grave mound appeared on the mountaintop.

Su Ming stepped forward and began to dig directly.

Regardless of whether you are a Nether Moon Maiden or a Blood Moon Maiden, if you have treasures, you are a good maiden.

He swung his greatsword in a circle and struck; the thick, heavy soil was smashed and sent flying, splashing everywhere as thick smoke rose.

There was no coffin, only a set of withered bones lying in the grave soil; the flesh had long since rotted away.

In the remains' hands, a green seal was held.

Su Ming stepped forward and picked it up gently.

Boom!

The next instant, a ghostly green light illuminated the surroundings.

An illusory green soul flew out from the remains.

It was actually an ugly old woman, with a hunched figure, a face full of wrinkles, and a complexion covered in pits and bumps.

Her appearance was hideous, looking just like a ghost crone.

"This is... the Nether Moon... Maiden?"

Su Ming was somewhat shocked.

Is she old, or does this world have a different definition for the concept of a maiden?

The old woman's nether soul stared fixedly at Su Ming and said in a heavy voice.

"Hee hee hee, later comer... you dug up my grave, presumably for my legacy treasures as well."

"It is just a pity that I have no legacy treasures here."

"I was born from the moon; I had nothing when I came, and I have nothing when I leave."

"But!!" Then, her face suddenly turned ferocious, like a wicked ghost.

"My hateful sister, the Blood Moon Maiden, has countless treasures."

"As long as you promise to help me kill her, I will tell you the secret of the hidden treasure of this world."

She looked mysterious, her ugly face covered in age spots, and her illusory soul body was already somewhat translucent.

"Oh, not interested."

Su Ming said coldly.

Once these words were spoken, the Nether Moon Maiden's soul was shocked.

"No... that's not right, why aren't you playing by the rules!" There was obvious panic in her eyes.

The restriction she had set on her own corpse no longer had much magic energy, and her soul was about to dissipate soon.

She had to sign a contract during this time, otherwise her layout would become a joke, a mere reflection in the water!

"I came to this dungeon to kill people, not to hunt for treasures." Su Ming said coldly, carrying his greatsword.

"Treasures in a D-grade dungeon rarely exceed diamond quality; for me now, they no longer hold any attraction."

Only the Corpse Sea Ice Nest dungeon was special, as Su Ming knew in advance that it had epic-grade equipment.

As for this dungeon, it was mostly just an ordinary D-grade dungeon; even if there were epic-grade equipment, it was too hard to find, so Su Ming had no intention of wasting time here.

"Furthermore, old woman, you are so ugly, how could I possibly make a promise to you?" Su Ming said with a cold expression.

In this dungeon world filled with peculiar magic energy, perhaps a promise represented some kind of contract that would be bound by the rules.

Therefore, Su Ming naturally could not fall into her trap.

Su Ming turned to leave.

The Nether Moon Maiden was instantly enraged, her whole body trembling, her face becoming even more hideous.

"You... you you you!!"

At the same time, she was extremely panicked inside.

In the end, she had to reveal all her trump cards in advance.

"I, I don't want your promise anymore!"

"I will tell you everything, please don't go!"

She said this in a hoarse voice.

Su Ming stopped and turned to look at her.

"Hurry up, I'm in a rush."

The soul of the old woman hurriedly said: "My... my sister's treasure is in the deep ravine at the border between the Blood Moon territory and the Nether Moon territory."

"Down there, there is a ruin."

"As long as you use my Nether Moon seal, together with her Blood Moon seal, and embed them into the door, you can open the gate."

"Her remains and treasures are all inside; as long as you kill her soul, I can be liberated. Please, save me!" She pleaded.

Hearing this, Su Ming's eyes flickered with a glimmer of thought.

"Liberated? You mean your sister, the Blood Moon Maiden, suppressed and sealed you in some way?"

The Nether Moon soul nodded hurriedly.

"Yes, we are both magic creatures born from the moon; even if we die, we can brew soul power to resurrect!"

"But she, that woman who deserves to be cut into a thousand pieces, sealed my soul, using her own soul as the price!" ===== CHAPTER 451 =====
