Global Dungeon: I Can See the Status Bar

Even if I can’t win now, even if I’m beaten like a dog in a sparring match, the opponent will still look down on me, thinking this is the best I can do in this life, unable to achieve anything noteworthy.

Just like a defiant eagle.

Some top-notch talents with not-so-great qualities even secretly mock me as just having had dumb luck, catching the last train as an old man.

Merely an old man who by luck stepped onto the path of Ascension to Divinity and cringed in the human world, lacking the courage to fight in the Upper Realm, what achievements could he have?

If not for good fortune, becoming a player before the end, I might have long turned to dust.

Morales couldn’t have imagined that Lu Wenwu would be like this... humble!

He actually admitted his failure and his shortcomings!

And not become arrogant because of his talent, looking down on all beings!

An absolute Celestial Pride with talent suppressing contemporaries, capable of slashing opponents beyond major tiers, yet lacking any defiance!

Why was Morales so clear about that kind of genius mindset?

Because when he embarked on the path of cultivation back then, crushing old forerunners one by one in a short time, he thought the same way.

Who hasn’t been a bit reckless and arrogant before?

Is a young person still young if they’re not arrogant?

Who hasn’t been a young genius once?

Looking at the smiling Lu Wenwu, a biting chill rose from the bottom of Morales’ heart.

Thankfully... thankfully this time a high price was paid to snipe him.

A genius daring to admit his shortcomings and failures is the most terrifying.

With sufficient talent and a calm mindset,

as long as the Dao Heart doesn’t collapse, given enough time, he will surely ascend to the highest peak.

Now, a genius not yet grown, isn’t truly a genius.

He could be wiped out with a flick!

Thinking of this, Morales’ gaze instantly became firm, and the longsword in his hand burst out with more terrifying power than before.

Where the Sword Intent passed, everything around was split open.

But eerily, the Sword Intent, enough to seriously injure a Divine Tier powerhouse, hit Lu Wenwu, who had only a drop of blood left, but did not cause any harm.

Lu Wenwu’s body flew out, smashing heavily onto the Space Seal, causing large ripples.

But, unharmed!

This sword caused no harm!

This time, Morales was truly astonished.

He didn’t understand, nor could he accept why his attack was rendered ineffective.

He frantically slashed, using his lifelong ultimate skills to rain blows on Lu Wenwu.

Yet, the feeble vitality of the opponent, like a flickering candle in the wind, swayed ceaselessly amid the storm, as motionless as a reef in the ocean.

”Why! Why won’t you die! Why!”

Morales roared, swinging his sword, his whole body ignited with a pale golden power.

At this moment, the smiling Lu Wenwu made him feel extreme fear.

He feared the variables.

He worried that Lu Wenwu really had a way to escape.

Years of cultivation gave him a strong premonition.

If this time he couldn’t kill Lu Wenwu, he might never have another chance.

Being tossed like a baseball, Lu Wenwu’s smile remained unchanged, he simply said, ”The Master says — If I learn the Way in the morning, I can die in the evening. Dragon Knight, when my purity improves, I will challenge you again. I hope next time, both of us can fully enjoy ourselves!”

Ignoring Morales, who seemed to be in a state of Dao Heart collapse, he looked at the results and descriptions that had appeared on his personal panel for a long time.

[Dungeon: Blood-Red Immortal Trace]

[Description: The path to Immortal Dao is vast and distant. Enduring patience versus swift and bold revenge, intricate schemes versus reckless actions, enduring cultivation versus wandering with a sword across the world, high virtue versus notorious infamy... which path is truly the Immortal Path? This is destined to be a towering road built on countless corpses, and a legendary adventure like an illusory dream. Can you reach the end?]

[Number of players: Not disclosed]

[Main Task: Investigate the reason for the demise of [Cyan Profound Sword Sect]]

[Current Assimilation Rate: 0%]

[Dungeon Level: S]

[Time Flow: 100:1]

[Note: This dungeon uses active settlement. Once you believe you have completed the main task, you can apply for dungeon settlement. The system will then give a corresponding evaluation level based on your task completion rate]

[Note: You only have one application opportunity, please handle it carefully]

[Note: Settlement application is not immediate, please do not perform extreme operations]

Assimilation rate zero, it’s the second time Lu Wenwu encountered such an eerie assimilation rate.

The last time was when he went to Yu Ying Mysterious School as a head chef... no, when he went to school.

This is somewhat abnormal, some dungeons that have never even been touched by players usually have at least 0.001%.

This means that the dungeon has already connected with Blue Star and is beginning to undergo a process of manifestation.

And zero...

Is it special care from the system?

Or is he incredibly lucky, entering the dungeon right when it appeared?

Lu Wenwu’s lips curled into a slight smile.

Though he doesn’t know what this ultimately means?

But it seems... quite interesting!

”See you again.” Lu Wenwu smiled, uttering these four words.

With the system’s Light of Teleportation flashing, his body instantly disappeared without a trace in the sealed space of the Death Arena, leaving only the Dragon Knight whose sword cut through nothing.

The old knight stumbled due to overexertion.

”Ding!”

His Angry Dragon Longsword pierced the ground, helping him regain balance.

Due to intense fear and fury, Morales was breathing heavily, his aged voice like a battered bellows.

Unlike those magic professions whose power grows with age, the Knight profession relies on youth and does not excel in longevity.

As his age approached the cultivation limit, his abilities and physical attributes were declining.

Especially the Qi Blood supporting his core strength, it was deteriorating severely, worsening by the day.

If not for his contract mount being a Black Dragon of relatively pure lineage, compensating for physical robustness, he probably couldn’t maintain his Ascension to Divinity Tier combat power now.

”In the end... old... after all.”

Morales, leaning on his sword, sighed long, realizing he was long past his prime.

It figures.

If not for life’s end looming and hopeless breakthrough, who would take on such a mission almost forsaking everything, risking death?

True talents already advancing steadily to Ascension to Divinity, have long ascended to the Upper Realm.

Apart from the current Military Lord, who would sacrifice their precious cultivation time?

Though there are people willing to abandon everything for their cause, daring to give their all, in the Salvation Resistance Army such individuals are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

Most, like the old ones continually in slumber, are merely dreamers entertained by faint fantasies, wishfully hoping for dumb-locked luck.

Looking at the four individuals miserably devastated by the Celestial Fire Thunder Burst, Lu Wenwu’s hearty laugh echoed, dispelling the peak fear in Morales’ heart completely.

He was genuinely old now.

Beginning to fear, and be burdened by caution.

The Death Arena has already taken shape, a battle with no retreat!

It could very well be the very last battle of my life!

The strong live, the weak perish!

Faced with this point, is he really about to die disgracefully?

No!

I was once dashing and bold; how could I succumb to death in degradation?

Invincible Tyrannosaurus War God, what a confident title!

Let me, this old dragon, see if you, young dragon, indeed can bear the titles ”Invincible” and ”War God”!

At this moment, the Dragon Knight Morales’ eyes emitted powerful battle intent, his aged, bent back straightening as if returned to his glory days!
