Chapter 194: The human in the elven territory Part5

“How the hell is a human being present in the elven lands??!!” 

Tang Yue stood frozen at the entrance of the cavern, not knowing how to react to this.

How could a human being even cross the Kare ocean and reach this side of Xion?

The Kare ocean unofficially marked the boundaries of the nine countries. 

Legend has it that countless decades ago, the old gods cursed the ocean and erected an invisible barrier spell to split the two sides of the ocean.

Those who dared to cross it will be subjected to bad luck and endless miseries.

Everyone knew about this!

No one in their right mind would dream about crossing the ocean.

No one who had dared to cross over and explore had ever managed to return back.

Even the royal elven family limited themselves to exploring only the land on this side of the ocean.

However, it was not as if the other side of the ocean was a complete mystery.

Detailed records of higher beings residing in those lands were commonly available, though it was more often used as folklore or bedtime stories rather than for educative purposes.

But weirdly enough, maybe because of that, these tales were wildly famous.

Even Tang Yue knew about these special higher beings living on the other side of the ocean.

One such being was the human race who were extremely similar to elves in their appearance except for the long ears and the stereotypical pale skin.

The man sitting in front of Tang Yue was almost as tall as Xander and Xavier.

He had black wavy hair, deep-set eyes, and a sharp nose, his features altogether very aesthetically pleasing.

He also had a very lean and muscular frame and seemed physically very fit and strong.

And more importantly, Tang Yue could feel the full brunt of his cultivation base.

The aura emanating from his body, surging like a powerful and unbridled pyre was absolutely terrifying.

He had to at least belong to the Demi-God realm!

Tang Yue eyed the man cautiously, knowing full well that all hell could break loose at any given second.

Just like she had suspected, someone else besides her ended up being present in these layers of hell and this someone else was even a human being to boot.

“What the hell am I supposed to do now?” Tang Yue hesitated.

The snake flickered her long forked tongue in and out as she gazed at the seated man.

The man was in a meditative pose, seated in a lotus position, with his legs folded inwardly.

His eyes were tightly shut and he was seated facing towards a tall stone tablet in the center of the room.

The black stone had some scribblings on it that resembled runic carvings and seemed very mysterious.

There was nothing else in the cavern except for this one stone tablet and this one human being.

Tang Yue silently thought about this situation from many angles.

But no matter how much she tried to reason, the only obvious conclusion was that this was the inheritance.

The stone tablet most probably contained the details of this necromancy inheritance.

The man sitting in front of it had probably studied it for a while and was now presumably in an enlightenment state, with his eyes closed and trying to grasp the inheritance.

If this assumption was indeed accurate, then it gave Tang Yue some time.

The man wouldn’t be able to break out of his trance-like state for a while and there probably wouldn’t be any imminent threat to her life.

But this also meant that the human was most vulnerable in his current state!

Tang Yue sighed unsure of what to do in this situation. 

Her life was not in any danger now, but what happens when the man finally steps out of his stupor after having obtained the inheritance completely?? 

What happens then?

He was most probably directly going to kill her without any second thought and maybe even with just the flick of his finger.

She would be inevitably helpless then and would be just as weak as the low-grade beasts whom she had slaughtered left and right on her way here.

Xander and the others arriving here before such a thing could happen was also a pipe dream.

She had no idea what was going on outside and how they were dealing with that bastard glow worm.

It was an epic-grade beast and surely they must be struggling with it!

So it would be very foolish of her to trust in them and wait patiently for backup and for someone to rescue her without doing anything on her part at all.

Tang Yue clenched her fists. She already knew what she had to do.

The only option left for her was to directly attack him right here and right now! There were no ways about it!

The man in front of her was clearly in a weak and vulnerable state. 

He wouldn’t be able to block any attack coming at him now.

But were Tang Yue’s attacks powerful enough to even land a scratch on him??

She had no idea. She wouldn’t know unless she tried. 

In any case, she had to try. That was her only option.

Tang Yue peeked inside the cavern space again and inched closer to the man who was seated calmly and serenely.

She slowly and steadily approached him, while still under the invisibility spell ‘Hide’.

Soon, she was already standing right in front of him, so very very close, but there was no response whatsoever from the other party.

Not even a twitch of an eyebrow!

“Phew!” The snake sighed inwardly. She was now more and more sure of what she had hypothesized.

The human being was definitely in some sort of enlightenment trance!

“Do or die!” The snake hissed nervously, and without further ado, she quickly summoned her soul weapon.

Tang Yue then raised the shimmering blade and brought it down forcefully in one strong and swift motion, aiming to directly behead the human being.
