Unreliable Sword Immortal.

Chapter 12 The Secret Realm of Opportunities

"Unrighteous?"

Lu Chaoding looked at the fluttering battle flag and felt very calm.

By promptly disbanding the team with Zhang Jiaqiang, he was indeed prevented from being drawn into the battle.

He's currently at less than half health; he's lost his mind to fight a level 10 Night Wolf with combat skills.

"Your friend died, but I did! Blame your bad luck, not mine!"

Lu Chao muttered something to himself, while looking around. In the hazy night, three shadowy figures could be seen wandering in the distance. Judging from their size, they were probably all of high level. It seemed that there were even larger nocturnal beasts further away.

Suddenly, a nocturnal beast emerged from the bushes about twenty meters away.

The nocturnal beast resembled a rhinoceros in appearance, had a head like a giant lizard, dripped mucus from its mouth, and had upright, fan-shaped plates on its back. It was actually a level 35 [Venomous Lizard Bull].

Lu Chaoding couldn't help but take two steps back. Suddenly, he heard a beast roar from the side. He turned his head and saw a black-haired giant tiger standing on a boulder, roaring.

Lu Chaoding also saw its attribute information, which revealed it to be a level 30 [Dark Moon Tiger].

"The night is still too dangerous. I can't keep wandering like this. I have to find a place to hide."

Lu Chaoding immediately sobered up, and his previous thought of hunting night wolves vanished instantly.

"My current situation is one of surviving in the dark; my primary concern should be how to stay alive!"

Lu Chaoding felt uneasy, but fortunately, the [Venomous Lizard Bull] and the [Dark Moon Tiger] did not notice him and quickly went elsewhere. Lu Chaoding crouched down and carefully moved in the opposite direction from where they had left.

Not long after, at the temporary camp of the Heavenly Mandate Platform, near the sword monument, a flash of white light appeared, and Zhang Jiaqiang was resurrected!

He gritted his teeth and sighed with regret.

At this moment, his level was reduced to LV2, and his cultivation points were cleared. Apart from the items he was equipped with, his storage space was completely empty.

"Huh! What happened to you? You got killed by that guy surnamed Lu too?"

It was also level two, and the storage space had been emptied, but Zhao Weike, wearing a dress, came closer.

"Who are you?" Zhang Jiaqiang was taken aback, then looked Zhao Weike up and down, and said, "Are there transvestites in our village?"

"You're the transvestite!"

Zhao Weike's face was cold. His storage space had been emptied. Fortunately, his two-star iron sword and two-star sailor dress were still on him and hadn't fallen off. Unfortunately, he only had the sailor dress to wear now.

"Where is the man surnamed Lu?" Zhao Weike asked again.

"That one's unreliable..."

Zhang Jiaqiang's feelings were complicated at this moment. He hoped that he could see Lu Chaoding resurrected here later.

But if he doesn't revive here tonight, then this guy is really something, and we'll have to figure out how to get on his good side in the future.

"I want to restart it, is there any way?"

Zhang Defa muttered by the campfire, "Worked all day and got nothing, not even a compressed biscuit. What's the point of playing this game!"

"It's all because of Lu Chaoding, he's a complete jerk!" Zhao Weike stomped his foot. "Just you wait, I'll get my revenge sooner or later!"

"Come on, I think you're the worst one!" Zhang Defa had stopped flattering Zhao Weike and was now quite resentful towards him.

The four female players not far away were now the source of the amusement. Xiao Ning said, "Why don't the three of you form an Avengers team!"

Wang Yingluo said, "I think our village still needs to rely on us women!"

Gu Xiaoxiao said, "Yeah, yeah, anyway, those three are definitely unreliable! As for that sword immortal, he's probably unreliable too! Hmm, choosing the sword immortal is unreliable!"

"Hmph! What do you know?" Zhao Weike glared. "Tomorrow, I'll take you to Lion Cliff and teach you what it means to turn the tide!"

Zhang Defa said, "No way! If I go with you again, I'll be a complete idiot!"

Wang Yingluo seemed interested and asked, "Lion Cliff? What kind of place is that? Is it a dungeon?"

"It's not a dungeon!" Zhao Weike's lips curled into a slight smile. "You can enter a secret realm of opportunity there. Want to know more? Add me on WeChat (10 gold coins)!"

"Holy crap, I have to pay you 10 gold coins!"

"You bastard, are you discriminating against me? Do you know I've lost all my money!"

"Opportunities like this aren't available to everyone. Add me for 10 gold coins and you'll get top-secret information—it's definitely worth it!"

"I don't believe you!"

"I strongly suspect this ladyboy wants us to take him with us!"

"Feel the same!"

"Everyone be careful, this transvestite is cunning. He didn't mention farming lottery tickets in the tutorial dungeon before!"

Beneath the Destiny Platform, the players showed no signs of sleepiness, their conversation growing increasingly animated, while in the darkness, Lu Chaoding desperately tried to escape.

Despite Lu Chaoding's caution, the number of night-stalking beasts was simply too great. They were scattered everywhere, had a wide range of vigilance, and would attack on the initiative, pursue, and even call on their friends to chase together. In the end, Lu Chaoding still provoked a squad of night wolves, and was chased by them at full speed.

He first ran down the mountain, through the woods and across the grasslands, not having time to see any scenery, until he reached the seaside, where he was frightened by a giant tentacle beast tens of meters tall in the ocean and turned back.

Seeing that the number of night beasts behind him was increasing, Lu Chao felt bitter. Fortunately, he had chosen the Sword Immortal, who was fast and could run fast, otherwise he would have been killed long ago.

After a level 16 Yaksha centipede joined the pursuit, Lu Chaoding was forced to run up the mountain.

"All nocturnal beasts are one family, damn it, they've all teamed up to surround and intercept me!"

Lu Chaoding was already somewhat dizzy and disoriented. He was also panicking and rushing around aimlessly. Before he knew it, he was forced onto a cliff.

"We're doomed! We've hit a dead end! I haven't even counted all the items Zhao Weike and the others dropped yet!"

Lu Chao was very unwilling. He looked ahead and saw that in the dim night, the area below the broken wall was shrouded in mist and he couldn't see anything. Looking further back, he estimated that there were about a hundred Night Beast Alliance members.

He gritted his teeth, and at that moment, he summoned the Commoner's Sword and eight sword shadows to his front, intending to fight these nocturnal beasts to the death.

Just then, Lu Chaoding suddenly received a system notification: "Ding, you have arrived at Lion Cliff! The special opportunity quest [Cliff Jump] has been triggered. Quest details: Take a leap and jump off the cliff. There is a 90% chance of instant death, a 9% chance of surviving and obtaining an opportunity treasure chest, and a 1% chance of surviving and entering the opportunity secret realm [Linlang Cave]. Quest description: Each player can receive the cliff jump quest a maximum of four times. Certain items can increase the chance of surviving the cliff jump. Please explore for details."

"Ding! The occasionally unreliable system has activated, updating the tracking mission with altered content: Take a leap of faith and jump off the cliff. 1% chance of instant death, 9% chance of surviving and obtaining a Treasure Chest of Opportunity, 90% chance of surviving and entering the Secret Realm of Opportunity [Linlang Cave]..."

Lu Chaoding didn't even have time to listen to the system prompts. Seeing the army of night beasts approaching, he did a backflip and jumped off the cliff. After feeling a moment of free fall, the scenery in Lu Chaoding's eyes changed rapidly.

"Ding! Congratulations on completing the [Cliff Jump] quest. You have survived a close call and are now fortunate enough to enter the secret realm of opportunity, [Linlang Cave]."

"Ding! You can claim three more cliff-jumping missions!"

"Ding, warning: It is currently nighttime. The monsters in the Lucky Cave have been replaced by nocturnal beasts."
