Dark Phoenix Prince

Chapter 78: Inside the underground passage

Five Nirvana spiritual weapons or tracking compass!

When Alu heard Rena's answer, his eyes immediately bulged as he looked at Rena.

He even lost his cool.

With Alu's personality basically not willing to suffer losses, the price that Rena said really upset him.

If it weren't for her wanting to ask her for help, Alu would have attacked Rena.

Being stared at by Alu, Rena's expression remained unchanged. She casually continued her words. "It's so cheap already!"

"You have to realize how dangerous your enemy is. She's not like Krinn and Arlo who are useless. When I help you later, I will also become her enemy. If she stays alive, she will definitely try to take revenge against me."

Rena stopped for a moment and looked into Alu's eyes.

"Someone who scares you. If that person also hunts me later, you have to realize how much trouble I will be in."

After saying that, Rena turned around and walked towards the underground passage.

"I won't force you. It's up to you whether you agree or not." She then said.

When she heard Rena's words, Alu finally calmed down. He began to remember his recent meeting with Elizabeth and thought about how dangerous she was.

After a moment of consideration, Alu felt that Rena's words made some sense.

"Besides, I have no intention of paying! Why should I worry." Alu said to himself.

He then said to Rena. "Um, it looks like I was wrong."

"Okay, as long as you help me, I'll pay for everything you ask."

After saying that, Alu took steps to follow Rena. He also motioned for Roux and Reva to follow him.

Rena, who was at the front, didn't answer, but she slowed her pace so that Alu could catch up with her.

When Alu arrived beside her, she turned her gaze towards Alu while held out her hand.

"Well, then we will start our second cooperation." She said with a faint smile.

Alu was a little surprised by Rena's actions. Yet he still held out his hand in return.

"Good luck! I'm sure we can make good allies." Replied Alu.

However, even though Alu said that, inwardly he thought otherwise.

"If this woman could be by my side, she would be very helpful."

After seeing Rena's power several times, Alu was sure that the woman had unlimited potential. Her talent is not just any talent.

As long as she didn't die, she would definitely become one of the most terrifying characters.

If someone like that could be under him, Alu could definitely gain unlimited benefits.

"Unfortunately she is not like Roux and Reva. It would be very difficult to make her submit."

Rena not only excels in terms of strength, but mentality too.

While Roux and Reva can be subdued with a bit of pressure, Rena probably won't be willing to do it even if she has to die. She is a person who is not afraid of anything.

In terms of courage, even Alu might not be as brave as Rena.

Right now, Alu really had no way to make Rena submit to him.

"But if the opportunity arises, I definitely won't let go."

"Okay, let's go." Rena then nodded as she pulled back her hand.

"Mm."

After that, they started walking into the passage.

Roux, Reva and two of Rena's followers followed closely behind.

....

It was dark and cold inside.

Worried that there was a trap, Alu and the others moved quite slowly.

At first, the passage still looks straight. However, after they entered about a hundred meters into the passage, they found that it was starting to climb upwards.

"As expected, this is the path to the peak of the mountain." Alu said.

"Maybe a shortcut where we don't have to run into wild beasts."

"And a path full of opportunities." He added.

"Hopefully so." Rena answered. "But since we entered too late, most of the opportunities in this passageway have probably been taken away by others."

"Well, we should probably move a little faster." Said Alu.

"Mm."

After that, they started running as they crossed the passage.

As they entered farther and farther, they found several crypt within the passage. And within each crypt, they could feel traces of extremely pure spiritual energy.

Unfortunately the remaining spiritual energy is basically just enough to breathe. This pissed them off.

Worried that they might really get nothing, Alu and the others started to accelerate their run even more.

Previously they were just running normally, but now they are starting to run using their spiritual energy.

Shua...

Not long after, they arrived at the end of the passage and they found a large crypt at the end of the passage.

When they entered the crypt, they couldn't help but be shocked as they discovered that there were more passages leading in different directions.

"It looks like there are more doors to this underground passage." Rena said as she surveyed each hallway one by one.

But even after she looked closely, she didn't find any differences between the passages. The path in each passage actually climbs upwards. There was no passage that looked down.

"If we get in the wrong way, we might end up getting out of this place."

"Dont worry!" Alu answered.

After saying that, he then took out the tracking compass that Krinn used to track Jather.

"I think Jather should have found the right path considering how long he's been here." Said Alu.

Alu then looked at the compass needle that began to spin.

Not long after, the needle stopped in one of the passages.

"He's this way."

Alu stared at one of the passages that were actually beside the one they had passed before.

If it weren't for the compass directions, they definitely wouldn't think the passage was the right path.

"Let's go." Said Alu.

He then walked into the passage.

When Alu and the others entered further into the passage, they found that the path in the passage was actually much more uphill than the passage they had been through before.

Hong long long...

A while later, they suddenly felt a tremor in the underground passage they were passing through and they also faintly heard the sound of a clash far ahead of them.

"There is a fight."

"Looks like we are close."

They immediately ran at full speed when they heard the sound of battle.

Not long after, they looked back at the crypt before them.

But unlike before, this time they saw many sparks in the crypt.

"This looks like a battle between two groups." Alu said. "They might be fighting over something valuable."

As he got closer, Alu could feel about two hundred and more auras in the front of the passage. And these auras are clearly divided into two groups.

One group appears to be on the defensive while another group attacks.

As Alu and the others got closer, the intensity of the battle started to diminish little by little, and in a few moments, the fight came to a complete stop.

After that, Alu could feel the many senses of the soul being directed at him.

Obviously the reason why those people stopped fighting was because of their presence.

As their soul senses were about to reach him, Alu waved his palms forward towards the soul senses.

Whooss...

The wind blew from Alu's hand, and when they met a bunch of soul senses, those soul senses were immediately pushed back.

The strongest among them was only on par with second-tier faction heirs in the Holy Light continent.

With the current increase in Alu's strength, he could naturally easily suppress their soul senses.

"There are some familiar auras." Alu said as he recognized several auras among soul senses.

On this holy path, there are only a few people that Alu knows, and they are all people he met before entering the holy path.

Among the people he felt, there were people from the Holy Light clan.

Apart from them, he also felt another group.

"Full Moon Temple." Alu's eyes instantly turned cold the moment he sensed their presence.

"Too bad there's no Elizabeth here."

There is only Turi and his followers. Alu didn't feel Elizabeth's presence.

And they, because they had provoked him, he had already decided to kill them as long as he had the chance.

Boom...

The sound of explosions echoed within the crypt right after Alu pushed their soul senses.

Of course there would be some counterattacks when one's mental senses were hit back.

Even though it didn't seriously injure them, it still made their auras chaotic for a while. They can even lose up to half their spiritual energy.

The people who were in the crypt couldn't help but be shocked as they felt their soul senses being pushed back by just one person.

Now, their gazes as they stared at the hallway were filled with wariness. Obviously they realized that the one who came this time was really a big character.

"It really is very much alive here." A youth's voice then echoed from within the passage.

After that, six people consisting of men and women came out of the passage.
