Chapter 195: Clearing the Hei Wu Fu Ben, Still Need to Grind a Few More Times

Alright, let's keep slaying. We'll clear this dungeon today, and tomorrow we'll see how lucky we are. Even if we don't hit 80, we'll still stack up kill points, and then I'll have him farm.

Afterwards, Shen Tianxing entered the third level of the dungeon; the mission and rewards were the same, except the numbers changed from 456 to 789, but the quantity of sea monsters remained consistent.

This time he was still very lucky; Shen Tianxing obtained a blind box key, but it wasn't enough, because clearing the third level also gave him a limited blind box.

Still, Tianxing's luck was decent; opening the limited blind box yielded another one‑third of a wish card, so he only needs the last one‑third to complete it.

Moreover, Shen Tianxing's martial cultivation advanced to the first layer of the second major realm of Earthly Immortal, the Void Mystery (Kong Xuan) level, and his base combat power, even without bursting, reached 250,000.

At the same time, Ruoyan outside also felt her strength increase—a qualitative leap that shot her base combat power up to 700,000, with a trend to exceed 700,000.

"My husband's strength has increased again, though it's all thanks to him; my power doesn't need me to cultivate it myself—it's like he drinks the soup and I eat the meat."

Ruoyan could only say that to Xiao Yu; Xiao Yu smiled and nodded beside her, and indeed it was true.

"You're fortunate, honestly; with your help, he can roam the world unhindered—it's that easy. The strongest on the Baiguo Continent is merely a perfected Earthly Immortal Carefree Realm."

"As long as he steps into the Path of Inquiry, you'll become one of the strongest on the Baiguo Continent, and leading him to roam the land will pose no problem."

"That's what we say, but we don't know how much longer it will take; we both know the current situation. Unifying the Baiguo Continent will be our next task, but can we really wait until it's unified?"

"Since we've come this far, let's accept it; everything now depends on his own ability. Anyway, we're just helping him—the previous bug has been fixed, so now it's up to him to see how far he can go."

The conversation between Xiao Yu and Ruoyan could be heard only by each other; naturally, Shen Tianxing was unaware of it.

Shen Tianxing finally reached the last floor; at this point, dealing with the sea monsters of the Earthly Immortal's Tongxuan Tenth Layer was merely a trivial task for him.

This sea monster is a giant seahorse soaked in black water, yet it possesses ten enormous tentacles. One could say its upper half is a seahorse, while its lower half resembles an octopus, though its claws have mutated extensively—indeed, it's quite disgusting.

Shen Tianxing flickered into motion, wielding his Dragon‑Slaying Blade, continuously slashing; the massive tentacles flew off. The giant seahorse monster let out a roar, actually bursting out of the black water and hovering mid‑air.

Immediately after, it spewed black poisonous water from its mouth, flooding toward Shen Tianxing like a dark deluge.

Unfortunately, it was useless against Shen Tianxing; he raised his hand, and a palm strike sent out, instantly evaporating all the poisonous water. A golden giant hand then slammed directly onto the seahorse, turning it to dust in an instant.

Having succeeded, Shen Tianxing cleared the Black Mist dungeon, and the loot dropped a blind‑box key, plus an additional blind box with an unknown reward, and also a new system reward.

"Congratulations, host, for first‑time clearing the Black Mist dungeon: reward 30 billion kill points, extra reward random martial arts completion, Tathagata Divine Palm martial arts completion, and martial realm perfection."

Upon hearing the system prompt, Shen Tianxing felt his whole being elevated; the Tathagata Divine Palm was completed—now ten forms instead of nine—and all were raised to perfection.

Don't be fooled by Shen Tianxing currently being only at the second layer of Void Mystery; with the Tathagata Divine Palm he could at least crush a sixth‑layer Void Mystery opponent with no chance to retaliate.

Even seventh or eighth layers might not be able to overcome him, given that his base combat power can burst to 500,000—already equivalent to a sixth‑layer Void Mystery fighter.

"Congratulations, host, for successfully clearing the Black Mist dungeon; the dungeon core has been automatically stored in the system package, and from now on the host can freely control the Black Mist dungeon."

Shen Tianxing clearly understands this so‑called control: it simply means opening a passage in the Black Mist dungeon that allows him to bring people out.

However, Shen Tianxing isn't in a rush; he opened another blind box, but this time it didn't yield a key fragment—it produced an ancient‑looking mirror instead.

"The ancient artifact, the Void Mirror, is damaged; legend says it surpasses ordinary divine items, possessing long‑range autonomous teleportation. Currently it's broken, able to lock only two coordinate points, and it can only be activated for places the host has previously visited."

"By using the Divine Artifact Restoration Fluid to repair it, once fixed it will regain its original function, allowing autonomous teleportation to up to ten coordinates; it can also be upgraded with Divine Artifact Upgrade Cards to add more coordinate points."

This mirror is useful, but limited; for Shen Tianxing now, he can only set coordinates for two places: the Wind Capital City of the Shenzhou Continent, and the exterior of the Black Mist dungeon.

As for the restoration fluid system, it's sold in the premium shop—one bottle costs 10 billion kill points; for Shen Tianxing now, that's not impossible to buy, given he has many discount cards.

However, using it to repair the current Void Mirror would be wasteful; it's better to wait until it's truly needed later, especially since his kill points are already nearing 50 billion.

The reason he has so many is mainly because clearing the Black Mist dungeon awarded 30 billion kill points, but that reward is a one‑time grant—no further kills will grant additional kill points no matter how much he fights afterward.

After clearing the Black Mist dungeon, Shen Tianxing immediately flew out of the mist and landed on a ship.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, for passing through the Black Mist; your strength has surged again."

All the masters knelt on one knee, congratulating Shen Tianxing; he merely smiled and waved his hand.

"It's indeed gratifying, but we still lack some things that need to be obtained from inside, so we may have to stay another one or two days, possibly even three or four."

"Tomorrow I will go in again; please be patient. Once I obtain what I need, I will directly open the Black Mist and lead everyone out of the Shenzhou Continent's territory."

"We will obey Your Majesty's command; long live the emperor, ten thousand years, ten thousand times ten thousand years."

Naturally no one objected; Shen Tianxing smiled and waved his hand, indicating they could rest, and then he went with Xiao Yu and Yang Hongyue back to their room.

"This went smoothly; tomorrow we'll keep grinding blind boxes and keys to see how many we can get, and what the odds are of obtaining wish‑card fragments."

Regarding what happened inside the dungeon, Xiao Yu has already informed Yang Hongyue and the others; aside from keeping Shen Tianxing's system a secret, Xiao Yu will basically tell Yang Hongyue and the group everything else.

Otherwise, after leaving the Shenzhou Continent, explaining many things would become too troublesome; others can be left as is, but there's no need to hide anything from family—of course, limited to one's own women.
