Rise of a Dungeon Lord

Chapter 17 The Eight Immortals

?[Host, the place we currently are is called the world sea, a place where millions of worlds meet]

[And over there to your right is earth!]

After making sure Ye Tian had calmed down, the system while still emitting a stand light controlled his vision, luckily this time with the system's protection nothing bad happened.

"Amazing!"

"Wow, how did I not know something as beautiful as this existed!'

Following the system's line of vision, Ye Tian found himself stunned as he was quickly immersed in what he saw next.

In the empty completely dark and soundless void, in the area in which the system called the world sea, different light spots could be seen adding a hit of beauty to the surroundings

While some were extremely large, and some were extremely small,

some holy white in colour, while others a dark ominous red.

Some made his whole body feel relaxed after taking a look at them, while others made him feel a bit of danger as he felt a gaze stare back.

However, from all the different light spots he saw, no two could be said to be the same.

"System, are all these light spots different worlds?"

Although he already knew the answer judging from the name 'world sea', Ye Tian still wanted to hear the answer from the system.

And sure enough, the system's next words fully confirmed his thoughts.

[Yes host, you got it all those you see are different worlds]

[Some so powerful with inhabitants capable of moving mountains and reclaiming the sea, With others as weak as your human race before the arrival of dungeons]

[However one this is certain, and that is that each world is special.]

[Just take a look at the blue star, in this area were currently in it could be said to be if not the strongest]

[Unfortunately, its current state doesn't seem too good.]

Listening to the system's words, Ye Tian turned to where the blue star was said to be.

"Impossible! Why Is the blue star like this!?"

Exclaiming full of shock, Ye Tian couldn't believe what was before his eyes.

The blue star which he just came from was currently on the verge of collapse.

With a fading greyish colour, its whole body was surrounded by tiny light spots seemingly extracting something from its body.

Dungeons!

Watching this happen, thus was the only thought that came to mind, apart from dungeons Ys Tian couldn't think of anything else.

"Damn it, it seems like the danger of dungeons to the blue star is more than I thought"

After becoming a dungeon lord, although his dungeon had been destroyed and a new one hadn't been created

But Ye Tian had already started to get some sort of inheritance information from the dungeon core he merged with.

Now looking at the light spots around the earth, more information suddenly came to his mind

Spores…

Rather than dungeons, Ye Tian wanted to call them spores.

According to the information he just got, it turns out that when a dungeon transcends the SSS level rank and becomes Ex level, it can separate smaller dungeon seeds and cast them into the world sea.

Finding a new world, that seed would then scatter into multiple grade dungeons all over that world and make it the same state as the current blue star.

However, if that was just what was happening Ye Tian wouldn't be so worried.

Something deeper and more sinister was hidden under the dungeon's arrival.

With the landing of the seeds on their newly found planet, they would then begin extracting energy from it and transporting it to their main base, the ex level dungeon.

And with the gradual extraction of energy, over time it would lead to the strengthening of the dungeons and weakening of the planets.

Soon, without any intervention what would happen next would be the destruction of that world as a whole.

Now according to the information of the core, there are currently eight Ex level dungeon lords in the void sea titled the Eight immortals.

Each capable of physical wondering in the void, immune to time, and watch the rise and fall of different works for all eternity

From the information he got, this core was a spawn from the 'Forbidden lands' , the Ex level dungeon owned by the fourth immortal

Lord of the forbidden lands.

Unfortunately, just from the little information transmitted by the core, there was nothing on how the eight immortals looked nor on what characteristic their dungeon had.

Now reading through this new information, Ye Tian realised the current situation was not serious

"System, since the eight immortals can each spawn dungeon seeds or cores, then what are the chances that their current Ex level dungeon core wasn't from a spawn"

"Doesn't that mean that there's somebody even more powerful than them?"

"After all, the current information I have says nothing about the first dungeon core, nor either of them being the creator of dungeons"

Although it was just a speculation, reason told Ye Tian that he was correct.

[.....]

Hearing Ye Tian say this the system fell silent

As a system, it before symbiosis and binding with Ye Tian, he had been stored with a lot of knowledge on the void

However the eight immortals, there was only one thing in its program about them

Don't approach!

According to what its database held, the eight of them had been around for aeons each possessing three standard characters

Unspeakable, unknowable, Unseeable

Now through its symbiosis with Ye Tian, it too got the knowledge from the core inheritance.

Adding to The Tian's speculation just now, the system knew things were getting out of hand

[Host forget about everything you just saw, the current you if you want to live don't say anything]

[And don't ask me why, just do it. As you know I'm currently bound to you so there's no way I would want to hurt you ]

Listening to the words of the system, Although he wanted to ask what was going on Ye Tian wisely kept quiet

After all, if the system wanted him to due he could have just not saved him back then on the blue star

Thinking of this, Ye Tian quickly changed the topic.

"Fine, I won't ask about it again."

"However system, I thought you said there was danger. Why don't I see anything?"

Remembering the system's earlier words, the system looked around and unfortunately could not see anything

However, the system's next words left him speechless

[Look again host, behind you]

[Judging from the time we wasted just now looking at the earth, I guess we should be completely surrounded by now.]
