Chapter 99: Someone in the Cave Abode

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

However, Romo’s strength this time was at the peak of the Great Archmage realm. Furthermore, it was a temporary body given by the System. Even if he were to die, it would be fine as long as he could obtain some treasures. After Romo entered the cave abode, he saw that the situation in the cave was indeed a little different from when he had come previously, especially since some of the original formations that existed had been destroyed. Romo became even more worried. Could it be that he had made a wasted trip this time?

This cave abode had several levels, and there were even more buildings underground. The further down one went, the more powerful the formations set up were. With the experience from his previous life and his own powerful strength, Romo quickly passed the first and second levels and arrived at the third level. There was a formation at the entrance, but it was not very powerful. Furthermore, one could enter without triggering the formation. Romo easily avoided the formation and entered the third level.

However, just as Romo had stepped into the third-level zone, several divine senses suddenly probed him. Romo was shocked, and then he sneered. Sure enough, there were others here, and they were all at the Great Archmage realm. Just now, there were a total of five divine senses, which meant that there were five Great Archmagi. One of them was even a powerful person at the peak of the Great Archmage realm, just like him.

Romo was not afraid at all and continued to walk forward. He currently had an innate spirit body, and his combat strength was much stronger than that of an ordinary Great Archmage at the peak of the realm. Moreover, he also had the explosive cultivation technique, the Skyfiend Three Transformations. Even if it was one against five, Romo was confident that he could fight them. Moreover, they might not necessarily fight. After all, at the late-stage Great Archmage realm, everyone was old and had already passed the age where they would fight and kill at the drop of a hat. If there was anything, it could be discussed, especially when exploring this place. The number of people who could come here was very rare, and it was fate that they could meet each other. Therefore, under normal circumstances, no one would fight the moment they saw each other, before even sighting any treasure.

There were many rooms on the third level. When Romo was alive, he had come to explore them. There were also many rooms which had very powerful barriers. At that time, Romo could not enter them. But now, all the barriers here had been destroyed, and the rooms were also empty of items. It was obvious that they had been taken away. Romo did not linger. He walked all the way to the end. Just as he turned a corner, he saw the entrance to the next floor. And at the entrance, five people were standing there. And they clearly knew Romo had come. They all looked over at Romo.

Romo looked at the five of them. Four men and one woman. The four men were all in their fifties or sixties. The woman looked a little younger, but she was around 40 years old. These five people were the owners of the martial arts divine senses which Romo had sensed earlier. After they had seen Romo, they did not show any hostility. Instead, when they saw that Romo was actually so young, they were all instantly shocked. This was because one’s appearance would only be set when one advanced to a level-6 Great Archmage. In other words, if there was no special reason, one would still look like one did at the level-6 Great Archmage realm until death. These people in front of him were all in their fifties or sixties. In other words, they had basically all reached the level-6 Great Archmage realm when they were in their fifties or sixties. However, Romo was very young and powerful. He even looked like he was only 30 years old. In other words, Romo most probably had advanced and became a level-6 Great Archmage by the time he was 30 years old. This was definitely a genius among geniuses. Currently, Romo could only be described as a monster. Moreover, Romo also did not conceal his strength currently. His powerful strength of a Great Archmage at peak realm impressed everyone.

Their eyes were filled with surprise and doubts. Perhaps they were wondering where this genius had come from, and that it was impossible that they had not known of such a genius. Romo also did not know any of the five people in front of him. After all, he had already died 500 years ago. An ordinary expert at the peak of the Great Archmage realm would only have a lifespan of 300 to 400 years. Those Great Archmagi he knew would have advanced to the Divine Mage realm, or would have certainly died. Therefore, it was normal that he did not know them now.

An old man with a walking stick standing in the middle of them said to Romo, “Greetings, friend.”

Seeing that the other party had shown goodwill, Romo naturally would not take the initiative to fight with them. He said, “Hello, friends.”

The old man with the cane said kindly, “This place is very well-hidden. Since you have been able to come here, friend, it is fate. Why don’t you join our group and we can search for treasures together?” He pointed behind a formation barrier at the entrance to the fourth level and said, “This formation barrier is very powerful. The five of us combined cannot break it. If you join us, friend, I think we will be able to break it.”

When searching for treasures in a dangerous place like the Calamity Mountain Range, if Magi encountered one another, they would often team up because of the obstacles encountered. However, once the obstacles had been cleared, it would be difficult to say if they could continue to maintain the team. Some of those who had experienced life and death together would become friends who would die for one another. However, most had killed each other after finding the treasures, wanting to take them for themselves.

Currently, they were still at the stage where they had encountered obstacles and needed each other, so Romo agreed decisively and said, “Alright, I’ll join the team.”

When the others heard this, they all heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. No matter how much trust they had between them, at least before they finished exploring this cave abode, they could get along peacefully with each other.

The old man with the cane said, “That’s great. Our team has gained another combat strength. We should be able to finish the exploration of the entire cave abode now. By the way, my name is Leonard. May I know your name?”

Romo said simply, “My name is Romo. I’m an independent cultivator.”

Romo? Independent cultivator? Why have I not heard of him? He’s already at the peak of the Great Archmage realm at such a young age. Logically speaking, he should be very famous.

Leonard thought in puzzlement. However, now was not the time to be thinking about these things. He immediately introduced the others to Romo.

The tallest person, who was more than two meters tall and very lean, was called Mike, a level-8 Great Archmage. The only woman was his wife, Shirley. They were both level-8 Great Archmagi. The two of them had been standing together, and it was obvious that they had a good relationship.

The fattest fellow was called Edward, a level-10 Great Archmage.

The person with a serious expression, as if everyone owed him millions, was the one with the highest cultivation level among them, which was also the peak of the Great Archmage realm.. His name was Harris, and he was also an independent cultivator.
