Game Lord's Cultivation System

By the time Jiang Ming finished organizing the items in his inventory, he began walking toward the specific location highlighted on his map.

The locations that he needed to place the air-free device were scattered all across the Avalon Ruin. It was like the designer of this had purposely made the mission time-consuming.

'How long has it been since I had to do some menial mission?' Jiang Ming wondered silently, walking leisurely.

Occasionally, there would be some skeletons popping out from the dead soil. Those skeletons would quickly identify Jiang Ming as an enemy and charge forward to attack him.

Luckily, Jiang Ming had the essence flame, Moonstow Flame, to burn the skeletons to a crisp, saving him stamina and effort to kill them.

Essence flames are a gift from heaven and the bane of these skeletons whose elements are those of the undead. The essence flames would burn their very soul, prompting them to be futile against him.

"Is this seriously all there is to the Avalon Ruin?" Jiang Ming was bored to death. It felt like he was a level 100 at a level 1 area, bullying everyone.

Although it was fun one-shotting every enemy, sooner or later, it would become boring since there was no challenge at all.

Sometime later, Jiang Ming arrived at the first location without any problems.

He retrieved the device from his inventory and followed the manual to plant it carefully.

Ding!

<Corrosion effect has decreased by 10%. The current Corrosion effect is at 80%>

<Due to the decreased Corrosion, powerful monsters would soon respawn around the area>

–

Jiang Ming nodded his head in understanding.

"I see… no wonder why this felt so easy." He muttered softly. "The mission is like an exponential function where it would gradually become more difficult when I plant the air-free devices huh."

Now that he realized the trick behind this mission, Jiang Ming needed to reconsider the location of where to place the device.

After all, if the final location was in a cramped area and the monsters are all above the Spiritual Grandmaster Realm, then the chances of him failing would magnify.

'Hmm, so far there are approximately 3 locations that are located deep inside the Avalon Ruin. If I were to walk there, then I might accidentally activate the mechanism inside.' Jiang Ming predicted.

With his past experience in such ruin before, he knew there are usually secret entrances that no ordinary people could find. Those secret entrances are the ones where you'll find the actual content and backstory of a ruin.

Given his circumstances, Jiang Ming decided to play it safe and plant the devices on the outskirts before treading into the inner layer.

Either way, he still needs to head to the inner layer to discover the past history, so why should he waste time walking back and forth.

While Jiang Ming busied himself with planting devices, Yang Liqin on the other hand found herself in the amazon rainforest environment.

'Alas, it's a shame that we are indeed separated.' Yang Liqin sighed inwardly. She had really hoped to continue her exploration with Jiang Ming. Not only was it a great bonding time, but it was also a perfect time for them to understand each other.

Ever since Jiang Ming had changed into a different person, they rarely had any time to truly have a conversation with each other. Sure, she might be having sex with him, but she would also be lost in the heat and could barely speak a word while getting pounded.

Yang Liqin lamented her resistance to the advancement of Jiang Ming. 'Just why couldn't I stop myself from being charmed by his cool and confident demeanor? Gosh, I'm really a horrible aunt.'

"Someone is here… I told you that I have detected someone."

"Yeah, you're right. Who would have thought you could actually spot someone in this big forest."

"Heh, let's just kill and loot the person. This is a competition between clans after all, and they should be prepared to die at any time."

While she was distracted in her thoughts, Yang Liqin was able to hear some noises coming from the Eastside.

At first, she had thought the people were talking about her, but upon closer inspection, it seemed like they were talking to someone very familiar to her.

'What is this coincidence?' Yang Liqin wondered silently. She activated her movement technique and hopped on the tree to eavesdrop on the situation.

Glancing at the scene from above, Yang Liqin couldn't help but chuckle a bit to see the Huo Clan's princess, Huo Ning engaging in a farce with others already.

Huo Ning was an impulsive young lady in her perspective, but what shocked her even more, was the fact that she had managed to ascend the Golden Staircase.

'Too bad, this young lady could never be a companion of my Jiang Ming. Too impulsive and bratty in his mind.' Yang Liqin smiled wickedly.

"You three scoundrels dared to make a move at me. I bet you have not seen actual death yet, right?" Huo Ning shouted in rage as she raised her sword at the three people in front of her. It was clear that she was separated from the rest of her Huo Clan members and was now ambushed by other clans.

"Oh dear, I'm so scared of a person that got destroyed by the Di Clan. Mommy, please save me."

"No, I want my grandpa to rescue me from trauma. Huo Ning is going to kill us with rage alone."

"You-" Huo Ning gritted her teeth when she heard their jeering and taunting remarks at her.

She had just been humiliated at the entrance by Di Qiaowei, yet now she was being humiliated by strangers.

"Who are you people, and what clan do you belong to?" Huo Ning asked angrily.

"I'm Gao Fushou from the Gao Clan." A person called Gao Fushou said as he stepped forward a bit.

"Drop all your items, and we will kindly spare you from death. And don't worry, we have no interest in raping a woman like you."
