Chapter 129 Tidal Cave
His strength has once again achieved a qualitative leap!
"Great!" Lin Tian clenched his fist excitedly and learned the two powerful S-rank skills without hesitation.
Satisfied, Lin Tian closed the skill panel, a smile of eager anticipation appearing on his lips.
"Next, let's find a place to test the power of our new skill."
He recalled that the information he had previously bought from Shen Meng mentioned a special hidden dungeon—the Tidal Cave.
According to the information, its entrance is located beneath a hidden pool on the outskirts of Luoxia City, making it extremely difficult to find.
"This is it!" Lin Tian immediately decided to use this hidden dungeon to test the quality of his new skill.
Based on the location information and entrance images provided by intelligence, Lin Tian rode the Blazing White Tiger, carrying Celia at breakneck speed.
Finally, in a dense, secluded woodland outside the city, they found the deep pool that was half-hidden by vines and moss.
The pool water was icy cold and clear, and a twisted, inconspicuous hole could be vaguely seen near the bottom of the pool, close to the rock wall. It would be difficult to find unless one was looking for it.
"This Shen Hu is really something, he can even find a place like this."
Lin Tian muttered something to himself, put away his mount, and jumped into the icy pool without hesitation, with Celia following closely behind.
The icy cold water enveloped Lin Tian, yet he felt a surge of energy.
[Ding! You have entered a special hidden dungeon: Tidal Cavern.]
As the system notification sounded in my mind, the scene before my eyes suddenly changed.
Dim light emanated from the bioluminescent algae and corals covering the cave walls, illuminating this enormous underwater cave in a bizarre and surreal way.
The air was damp and salty, mixed with a faint smell of decaying aquatic plants.
The ground beneath my feet was damp sand, which sank slightly with each step, and scattered puddles reflected the shimmering light above.
Deep within the cave, the sound of flowing water mingled with some rustling, unsettling noises, adding to the mysterious and dangerous atmosphere.
"The environment is quite unique, but the food isn't very good."
Lin Tian looked around, and his powerful senses immediately detected countless restless auras in the darkness.
In the blink of an eye, he summoned twenty Shadow Wolves.
These giant wolves, wreathed in eerie blue flames, silently disappeared into the shadows as soon as they appeared.
Like the most professional cleaners, they spread out into the intricate cave passages.
Soon, a low roar, the cracking sound of carapace being violently smashed, the shrieking of energy tearing through the air, and the dying wail of a monster could be heard from afar.
Based on the information relayed by the wolf pack, Lin Tian learned that most of the monsters here were around level 25.
The [Tidal Fishman], [Giant Claw Lobster Man], and [Trench Jellyfish] are not only of high level, but also quite numerous.
"Level 25, perfect for testing the blade." Lin Tian nodded in satisfaction.
To clear the area more quickly, he waved his hand again, and this time, a full one hundred Shadow Wolves were summoned!
They instantly surged into each side road, efficiently clearing away all the "shrimp soldiers and crab generals" blocking their way.
Lin Tian, along with Celia, chose a relatively wide main passage to proceed forward.
He needs to find a sufficiently open area to properly test the new power he has just acquired.
Not far ahead, a huge underground lake appeared, with countless glowing stalactites hanging from the cave ceiling.
The lake was as calm as a mirror, reflecting the magnificent halo above, offering an extremely wide view.
"This is it." Lin Tian stopped, his eyes gleaming with eager anticipation.
He first took a deep breath, feeling the surging magical power within his body, and then his gaze sharpened.
Shinra Tensei!
Instead of choosing the minimum cost, Lin Tian directly used up to 5% of his maximum mana to inject into this brand-new Overlord skill!
Om-!
An invisible yet incredibly powerful and terrifying repulsive force suddenly erupted wildly in all directions from Lin Tian's center!
Rumble!!!
The entire underground lake space seemed to be violently stirred up by an invisible giant's hand!
The calm lake surface suddenly dipped downwards, forming a huge bowl-shaped whirlpool.
Immediately afterwards, a huge amount of lake water was violently pushed in all directions, crashing against the rock walls with a deafening roar!
The rock face shook violently, and the luminous stalactites hanging above broke off and crashed into the lake like a torrential rain, creating even more waves.
The moisture in the air was instantly dissipated, creating a brief vacuum zone where even the light seemed to be distorted!
Those [Tidal Fishmen] and [Trench Jellyfish] hidden deep in the lake or in the crevices of the rocks,
They didn't even have a chance to react before being instantly crushed and pushed aside by this irresistible force, turning into light and disappearing!
A dense, terrifying array of damage numbers appeared like a waterfall, instantly clearing out all the monsters in sight!
After the repulsive force, the lake water rushed back and filled the area, making a huge splashing sound, leaving the entire space in a mess.
"Hiss..." Even though he had expected it, the power of this skill still made Lin Tian gasp slightly.
The range, the damage, the control effect—it's practically a god-tier skill for clearing out enemies!
More importantly, he continued to expend his magic power to maintain the repulsive field.
The next moment, he felt a powerful lifting force coming from beneath his feet, and his body slowly lifted off the ground and floated up!
The sense of freedom from the earth's constraints and the commanding view from above made him feel incredibly happy!
"Hahaha! That's awesome!" Lin Tian couldn't help but laugh out loud.
He finally possessed the flying ability he had always dreamed of!
After testing [Shinra Tensei], Lin Tian turned his gaze to a small group of monsters that had just regrouped on the distant lake.
【Starstorm】!
He locked onto that area and unleashed the new skill of the Starry Sky Mystic without hesitation.
Boom!
A crisp sound, like shattering glass, echoed high in the sky, as a violent astral rift of energy was forcibly torn open above that area!
The next second, countless fragments of stars and destructive torrents of energy surged forth from it like a celestial river pouring down.
In an instant, it transformed the area below, with a diameter of over thirty meters, into a destructive storm-filled ocean!
The lake water within the area was instantly evaporated, revealing the silt at the bottom of the lake, which was then splashed everywhere by the terrifying energy!
The newly spawned Giant Claw Lobster Man and Tide Murloc Man disappeared again.
After five seconds, all the rift energy suddenly contracted inward, forming an extremely unstable energy singularity, and then—
BOOM!!!
The final explosion erupted! Blinding starlight instantly engulfed everything, and an even more terrifying damage number leaped up!
After the explosion, only a huge crater and the lingering smell of burning remained in the area; all the monsters were gone.
Lin Tian nodded in satisfaction.
Celia stood to the side, her purple eyes reflecting the lingering brilliance of the starstorm, watching the terrifying spectacle caused by Lin Tian's new skill experiment.
Her little mouth was slightly open, filled with amazement and admiration.
