Note From Developer: I’m a big fan of Chinese web novels, but I often came across great stories with poor translations. That’s why I started this website! My goal is to make this the best web novel translation site out there. If you have any suggestions or feedback, feel free to reach out on Discord or Instagram.

Ye Zhongming had faced seventh-level monsters before, but that was in his past life. In that past life, he was mainly responsible for long-range attacks and had never confronted this level of mutated life directly.
Now, suddenly facing a monster that had an even higher evolutionary level than Yangos, he found himself momentarily dazed.
However, Ye Zhongming quickly adjusted his mindset and had his team arrange themselves into a battle formation behind him.
The humanoid life form on the metallic seat stood up, one hand reaching into the void, and a golden scepter was grasped tightly in his hand.
At the same time, three phantom images appeared in mid-air behind this humanoid creature, with backgrounds that actually showed their descriptions.
The first item was a scroll, simply labeled with four words: Plunder Scroll.
Ye Zhongming raised his eyebrows, thinking to himself that this was a good item.
This scroll was somewhat similar to the skill extraction card he had obtained before. The difference was that this Plunder Scroll was more about forcibly acquiring a piece of equipment from the enemy, and there was a chance to gain skills and abilities, but that required the Plunder Scroll to be of a high level. He just didn’t know what level this scroll was.
The second item was a delicate little box, with the background description stating three words: Treasure Chest.
This one was easier to understand; when opened, it would yield rewards, but the specifics were entirely based on luck, just like a roulette.
He had heard that these could have both good and bad outcomes, but Ye Zhongming had never obtained one, so he could not judge based on its exterior.
The third item was a small and exquisite sculpture, with the background description reading: Stabilizing Statue.
Again, there were no detailed materials available; he could only study them closely after obtaining them.
These three items should be the rewards for this challenge; as long as he succeeded, they would be within his grasp.
“Zhongming, should I give it a try?”
Liang Chuyin beside him was eager to take action; she had just obtained a promotion scroll that allowed her to advance from a novice Wind Dancer to a junior Wind Dancer.
Ye Zhongming shook his head.
Liang Chuyin’s strength was quite good now; she had an advantage among her peers, and whether it was her newly promoted class or the silver Shadow of Deep Cold Ripples in her possession, she had excellent combat capability.
However, facing a seventh-level mutated life form, the level difference was just too significant, and there wouldn’t be much to gain from trying.
Red Hair stood automatically beside Ye Zhongming. In the current Cloud Summit Villa, only she and Ye Zhongming had reached the sixth level.
“Oh~~ I shouldn’t have come here. I can sense the powerful aura emanating from this guy; you’re all far behind him.”
A discordant voice suddenly rang out, causing many to glance over.
Ye Zhongming was very interested in the brain worm mutated creature that Red Hair had “brought” with her, but he didn’t have the time to study it right now.
Possessing human intelligence and the ability to speak, it naturally understood its own uniqueness. Upon seeing Ye Zhongming for the first time, this creature, with a childish appearance, felt a terrifying sensation as if encountering a natural enemy.
So scared that it didn’t dare to speak at all, it hid among the zombie horde, trying to conceal itself.
Yet, who was Ye Zhongming? The great thousand soul refining technique naturally had a restraining effect on mental life forms, not to mention his acute sensitivity to such beings, allowing him to spot it almost immediately.
In this battle, whether it was the earth yellow pill or Red Hair, it was not surprising that they could enter the space with Ye Zhongming, as they had close ties with him. However, the little creature that should belong to the zombie category was also able to come in, leading Ye Zhongming to suspect that it had some secrets he didn’t know.
