Damn, I Awakened With A Horror System!-Chapter 348: The Ancient Buildings (3).
It could be said that, even for her, even if she used all of her trump cards, killing several core formation realm beasts that range from early stage to late ones in a span of a short period was beyond her capabilities.
Moreover, even if she managed to pull it off, the young girl was sure that the injuries she would receive wouldn't be that light, probably even dying on the spot in the worst case possible.
"Killing core formation realm beasts without sustaining injuries; I'm afraid only a Nascent Soul cultivator could pull that off... and a strong one on top of that."
Having formed a wild conjecture in her mind, the young girl, despite the fear within her eyes, still thanked Leo in the short distance — cupping her hands in order to show her utmost respect.
"There's no need; I also found those beasts irritating."
Seeing his horror points increase by at least 50,000 points in a single battle, still increasing by hundreds every time the young girl in the short distance stared at his shrouded being with unconcealed fear, Leo couldn't help but let out a satisfied chuckle.
Nodding his head with satisfaction, Leo thought.
"Indeed, killing was still the best way to obtain horror points; just the rich emotion of regret, followed by their life flashing by with their last breath was already enough to give me something."
Huff~
"My overly planned plot earlier to bring fear to other cultivators went to naught. Sigh, who would have expected that the beasts seem to have a way to enter this independent world through unknown means?"
Although it was somewhat regretful, since there were much better alternatives that arrived to earn horror points, Leo wasn't that disappointed. In fact, it was better considering that he could earn bonuses like exp points upon killing beasts than scaring humans.
"I just hope that I don't meet a troublesome beast. Sigh, in the end, it all comes to personal strength."
Thinking of the suspected Nascent Soul beast who had attacked him after he had just been transported to this place, Leo's expression couldn't help but drop a little. Despite his strength already solidifying above the core formation realm, he was still unsure if he could go toe-on-toe with a Nascent Soul realm cultivator.
It could be said that the gap between a cultivator with a complete rule at his/her disposal and a cultivator without one was simply huge.
In short, stats alone couldn't shorten the difference.
Fortunately, although he was not confident fighting a Nascent Soul being, escaping and surviving shouldn't be that hard.
"It's just that the lingering energy of the formation still lingers within my soul; I guess my race's passive ability could've deflected all of its ability."
...
Soon, after pondering a while and taking the remains of the beasts' corpses that scattered around, Leo, understanding that it was better to explore this place alone in order to be underestimated by the beasts, bid his farewell to the still fearful young girl in the short distance before immediately activating his invisibility skill—making his figure fuse with the surrounding area before rushing toward the silhouette of the building in the far horizon, leaving the stunned girl behind.
"Wait! I still haven't even gotten your name."
Sensing that the aura of the robed man vanished within her senses without leaving a trace, the young girl couldn't resist but stomp her feet on the ground in annoyance, feeling disregarded as she hurriedly drilled toward the earth.
Vanishing completely within the surface of the earth in an instant.
"Leaving a young girl alone in this eerie place, gentlemen really no longer exists!"
...
Bang!

At the same time, while Leo was rushing toward the silhouette of the unknown buildings hidden within the pinkish fog...
In the far horizon, within the corner of the independent world, countless lit black candles, carrying a thick scent of blood and scattered throughout the enclosed cave could be seen emitting an eerily glow — swaying back and forth with the soul-chilling wind as 10 of the candles in the distance suddenly doused off, letting out a smoke that quickly dissipate within the atmosphere.
"Damn it!"
Beholding this, a beast with a hideous appearance, sitting in the center of the cave, suddenly pounded the ground in anger. His abyssal eyes, which were akin to vultures, showed deep-seated hatred as he gazed at the 10 candles that had been suddenly snuffed out with murderous intent.
"Useless! Even with the help of the formation, you all still died at the hands of those unenlightened humans! If I could just bring you all back to life, I would surely torture you to death again."
Bang!
"This is really annoying!! Galgadour, come in right now!"
Pounding the ground again, causing the earth beneath to crack down and cave in...
The hideous beast then angrily called out toward the direction of the passage, causing a 2-meter-tall arachnid with a head similar to that of a human to hurriedly scramble forward.
"Ye-yes, commander."
With its head bowing toward the ground and its eyes staring toward the pieces of rubble scattered around, the arachnid asks with fear. His body was as stiff as metal, as if afraid to move and anger further the abomination in front of him.
"Took those 10 snuffed-off candles to track down the one who had slathered those useless beasts. I want them dead by tomorrow!!"
"Ye-yes commander, I will immediately notify dozens of core formation beasts to kill them."
Hearing the command of the commander, the arachnid hastily took out the 10 extinguished candles on the ground. After that, he then bows one last time toward the center of the cave before rushing outside the place as if there is no tomorrow.
"Oh wait, ask 3 peak core formation realm beasts to hunt them down; I don't want a mistake to occur... Understand?"
"Ye-yes commander, right away."
Seeing the silhouette of the arachnid vanishing within his line of sight, the hideous beast couldn't help but release a snort of pure disgust, showing dissatisfaction in his eyes before closing them afterward—continuing his disrupted cultivation.
