Omnipotent Overlord

Chapter 336: Soul Crystal

Mito became transparent and all Ye Lis attempts to stab him were proven useless.

Mito smiled, I am merely the herald of the Dark Hall. In this world, only my master can kill me. Miss, good thinking, albeit useless.

I explained to you Dark Halls rules and now I shall take my leave. Goodbye.

Mito vanished slowly.

He left the three with the tiny vials and the huge bottle.

Li Mo walked up to the gate and frowned.

Ye Li said, Are we really going to slaughter so many living beings?

There wont be any point in going in like this. Ji shook his head.

Perhaps theres another way.

Li Mo took out the two white eggs.

Whoosh~

The two eggs released a light that was absorbed by the Dark Halls gate.

Whats happening? Ye Li and Ji jerked.

Kaka~

The heavy gate opened to reveal the pitch black world inside.

The two white eggs vanished.

W-what just

Mitos voice came, So you had soul crystals, two even. Congratulations, you not only opened the gate but you are awarded with two extra years.

Soul crystal was referring to those two eggs.

Li Mo took them for pet eggs but only after using the Eye of Truth did he find their true value.

A soul crystal formed slowly as a bit of soul was absorbed whenever a creature killed. It was different from how the black vial absorbed the soul. 

Li Mo frowned, Dark Hall encourage slaughter, while a creature killing can form a soul crystal. Are they related?

Ye Li said, Lets go in, the Dark Halls gate is closing!

The Dark Halls gate was slowly moving, forcing Li Mo out of his thoughts as he walked in.

Although he was filled with questions, the most urgent matter was to increase his strength as fast as possible.

Du Fei and the others would be in greater danger as time passed.

The second he entered, all he saw before him was black and more black. 

Whoosh~

Ji used her magic like a lamp.

The earth was black and felt soft to the touch, as if after a rain.

Wu~

Two wails sounded and a mist monster jumped them. Li Mo used Poison and Venom Kiss, wrecking its health.

Pff

The monster vanished, and a white light came from Ji.

He leveled up.

Ji was right, the experience he was gaining was far greater. Killing just one mist monster was comparable to killing two dozen outside.

Li Mo jerked, We can kill the mist monsters here?

No, look.

Ye Lis vial clearly revealed a mist monster inside.

This vial is odd, it can absorb peoples souls and even from mist monsters.

Ji smiled, But like this it saves us some time.

That may not be the case.

Li Mo shook his head.

Whats wrong?

Nothing.

He had the nagging feeling this wasnt right, but he couldnt put his finger on it.

Wu~

Wu~

Strange sounds came from all around and a hundred mist monsters had them surrounded.

Ji recoiled two steps, Such a scary place. We just entered and already meet so many

Good luck, brother Mo.

Ye Li withdrew.

Regarding battle, their stats were junk. They couldnt kill one of those things. But the two could provide support, one giving full health in an instant and the other a Revivify.

Li Mo charged and aggroed all the monsters.

Li Mo was an assassin but his stats made him approach a level 50 player with golden gear. He got so many points with the level 10 gift that he could skip tens of levels at this point. 

Half an hour later, Li Mo dealt with the hundred mist monsters and his stats grew by another hundred.

The vial absorbed them. Just how many can it hold?

Ye Li watched the vial and after the hundred monsters fell, the level of the vial didnt change at all.

Who cares? Were already inside and since its a good thing, lets just move ahead.

Li Mo walked in front.

With his inflated stats, he only needed one or two hits to kill the mist monsters.

It looks so easy when you do it

Let me try!

Ye Li got excited. She had a high level and golden gear, feeling a bit morose from having to always follow Li Mo around without doing anything.

When a mist monster came, Ye Li charged. She hit it and the health bar only trickled down. While the monsters strike threw her on the ground. 

Insta-kill

Luckily, Ji had Revivify. After Li Mo handled the mist monster, he revived Ye Li 

All desire to fight left Ye Li then and there.

The monsters in this place will grow and grow based on us. But your stats cant keep up. All the two of us can do is rely on brother Li Mo.

I know that, big brother Ji. I can die, but you must stay alive.

Understood

Six hours and three thousand mist monsters later, Li Mo reached level 35 and his stats literally exploded.

But this world of darkness was endless. The three had walked for so long, yet all they met were more mist monsters.

Continue!

Li Mo took point.

Getting a god contract couldnt be better, but it wasnt imperative. What mattered the most was gaining levels.

Just a day more. Li Mo was confident he would reach 40 in this time.

Ye Lis vial absorbed all those four thousand mist monsters Li Mo killed.

The vial has changed. Look!

Ye Li lifted the vial.

The vials color swayed from dark to light.

The inside must be crystallizing the souls. This means the bottle is half full.

Nifty bauble.

Quite.

Wu~

With some more weird sounds, Li Mo used Flurry to return to the field of battle
