Gradually, their vision began to blur, and there appeared to be a thin fog hanging in the air.
He had no choice but to follow Xia Fei’s order and continue ahead, maintaining approximately fifty meters of distance between them. They might as well quietly make their way ahead, and at least leave themselves a potential lifeline! In that case, it would be a real miracle if the unknown beast or spirit that inhabited this grave would not end up being unearthed. What Xia Fei meant by creating a new route was naturally blowing up the tomb! Either you continue going ahead, or I will use Peacock Blue to directly create a new route.”īoth Radix and Zumi panicked. Going back will mean returning to the maze, a strange place that had another force stopping us from getting out. Xia Fei frowned, “No matter where we’re going, we have to take a look. Zumi’s expression was filled with fear as he spoke in a hushed tone, “Believe me, this is definitely not the way out! We arrived through maze-like passageways, and this is just a straight path!” He was anxious and wanted to leave, but Xia Fei strictly forbade it. When Xia Fei and the group arrived at the slightly cooler passageway, everyone suddenly realized it was not just a slight difference in temperature, but the confusing forks along the way had also disappeared! There was now only a singular straight path! But I know that if we keep choosing the safest path, we could end up spending our entire lives never finding our way out of here.” “Is that really a good idea?” Radix cautioned. Most people would hardly be able to detect such a minute difference, but it was a stark contrast to a skilled warrior. High-level warriors had keen senses, and Zumi could vaguely sense the air coming from the right was a little colder by about 0.01 degrees than the path they had taken thus far. Xia Fei shook his head, “No, we’re going right, because the path to our left isn’t any different from all the other paths we’ve walked past so far.”Ī war raged inside Zumi. Zumi turned around and suggested to Xia Fei, “Let’s take the left path, the way to the right seems to be colder.” The murals that flanked their two sides were all the scenes of massacres the Broken Wing Sky Demon had engaged in, as if the painter who had made these murals was intentionally recording down the most cruel scenes of the slaughter that the Sky Demon had experienced throughout his life, trying to highlight his ferocity. There were forks in the path everywhere, and there was no order to them whatsoever. Their group made its way through the tomb at a decent speed. After hearing about the tragedy that had befallen those who trespassed the Four Great Sky Demon’s Tomb from Zumi, even Xia Fei had given up on smashing his way through the tunnels.
Speak with the spirit of Kalderos, who is awaiting you within Zarthuzellan's chamber in the Steps of Torment, on the third floor.Chapter 1249: Encountering an Inexplicable Fight
You have destroyed the undead remains of Grand Priest Zarthuzellan and earned the right to your reward. The Steps of Torment are located deep within the Broken Hills. When you have destroyed the corrupted priest, the way will be clear to the doors sealing off the deepest pits of the Steps of Torment. Once inside, you must seek out the Grand Priest Zarthuzellan, who resides on the third floor. Kalderos has instructed you to descend into the Steps of Torment, the ruined remnants of Arkovia's dark history. On unlocking the door the key will be used up and another must be crafted with the blueprint to enter again. The Skeleton Key will allow you to unlock the Gates of Anguish, which lead to the fourth and fifth levels of the Steps of Torment ( Suffering and Anguish). Kalderos will be waiting in the room by the Gates of Anguish. The portcullis at the bridge to his room will lock behind you until he is defeated. Grand Priest Zarthuzellan is located in his room toward the north-east end of Misery, the third level of the Steps of Torment.
Speak to Kalderos in the Steps of Torment.
