back pressed tightly against the damp, dark-scented rock wall, taking each step with extreme caution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this state, it was as if he was treading not on solid ground, but on an Abyss that could swallow him at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Geisla cautiously backed away, his eyes fixed intently on the Abyssal Demon not far ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sila’s breathing became incredibly light and shallow, afraid that his presence might disturb the Abyssal Demons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His heart pounded wildly in his chest, each beat like a heavy hammer strike, making his eardrums ache.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sweat rolled down his forehead, blurring his vision, but he dared not wipe it away, only desperately blinking to keep himself alert.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slowly, slowly retreated, each step requiring immense effort to control his body without making a sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, after a long and agonizing process, Sila reached the fork in the underground city’s tunnel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, he turned and darted into another direction of the underground city tunnel like a startled rabbit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did he dare to let out a small sigh of relief, with his tightly wound nerves slightly relaxing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaned against the tunnel wall, gasping for air as if he had just survived a deadly battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That was really dangerous!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Geisla wiped the sweat off his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is it any wonder that the game ’Divine Revelation’ is so popular?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything feels just like the real thing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When facing those Abyssal Demons, Geisla truly felt as if he was confronting a terrifying entity in reality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That sense of realism fed back into his game character’s body, giving him an unparalleled thrill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is what a true adventure is about!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Geisla smoothed his breathing and clenched his fist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest, he’s had real-life adventures too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But being rather protective of his life, he wouldn’t dare venture into truly dangerous places.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, in the game ’Divine Revelation,’ it’s different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Controlling a game character that won’t truly die, going on adventures in all kinds of dangerous places is an extremely thrilling experience!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Geisla felt he was about to blur the line between game and reality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No choice!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who could make the game ’Divine Revelation’ so well-crafted and realistic?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mind you, he had ventured into the underground city many times before, and the times he died to Abyssal Demons were more than he could count on two hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No way around it, considering how sensitive those Abyssal Demons’ perception was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after experiencing multiple deaths did Geisla figure out a few tricks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Combining various Stalker skills, he could even evade threats from Golden Rank Abyssal Demons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, those three or four Golden Rank Abyss Demon Wolves earlier were still too dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they had caught his scent, he’d probably have to start over again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After avoiding the earlier danger, Geisla oriented himself and continued deeper into the underground city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because he had no companions, venturing alone into this perilous underground city, Sila took every activity within it with utmost care.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was like a lone hunter, cautiously exploring for his own treasures in this dark world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He still enjoyed this kind of gaming experience very much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, while mapping the underground city along the way and completing commissions from the Church of the Gods and the White Dove Guild, Geisla didn’t miss out on Experience Points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though, the rewards for doing so are quite generous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last time when he entered the underground city, Geisla accidentally discovered an Advanced Magic Gem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gem emitted a mysterious and brilliant blue glow, like the brightest star in the night sky, instantly catching his eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Excited, he carefully pocketed the gem and brought it out of the underground city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After selling it, he earned quite a lot of Gold Coins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the appearance of small worlds has made more magic resources available, leading to a decline in the prices of Advanced Magic Gems compared to before, it still valued at thousands of Gold Coins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For someone still at Silver Rank, it was a fortune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once exchanged into real-world currency, it directly equated to a few years’ salary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This left Geisla unable to give up, dismissing his nine-to-five job to begin full-time mining in ’Divine Revelation.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having tasted the sweetness of success, Geisla naturally was unwilling to easily leave the underground city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thirsted to find more treasures here, to enhance his strength, making his in-game self stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he wasn’t careless because of his previous success, knowing well the dangers of the underground city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was precisely because he hadn’t brought enough Equipment upon entering the underground city this time that Sila was now extremely vulnerable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was like a snail without its shell, appearing so defenseless in a monster-infested underground city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as long as the Abyssal Demons discovered him, it would be hard for him even to escape for his life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he wasn’t worried about death, as he saw it, death only meant returning to the entrance of the underground city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s just that penetrating deep into the underground city is quite labor-intensive and time-consuming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief rest, Geisla continued to delve deeper into the underground city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air in the underground city tunnel grew increasingly oppressive and stifling, filled with a stench mingled with decay and blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every step Geisla took was with utmost caution, his eyes scanning his surroundings vigilantly, not missing the slightest movement.\u003C\u002Fp>",896,"2026-06-03T10:59:03.386Z","2026-06-03T10:59:11.932Z",1,"novelbin.me","9ea81f326e85aaadbe77b32babd16fc577e8008cca7d9f6c1caff36b9a538b63","i-ascend-to-the-divine-throne-through-arcane-mea-chapter-1617","i-ascend-to-the-divine-throne-through-arcane-mea-chapter-1616",1658,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-ascend-to-the-divine-throne-through-arcane-mea-cover.jpg"]
