Chapter 187 - Purgatory
After he watched the video on the Inheritor of the Witchers, other than his determination, he could feel the pressure.
It was all thanks to the Monster Transmutation System that he could come this far.
However, he was a Shifter. He was not a player.
His stats were vastly different from the other Inheritors. If he wanted to grow stronger, he could only use Transmute Monster and the Evolution Pills.
That was also the reason why the speed of his growth had been limited.
That was why he desired power strong enough to dominate the Inheritors that were powerful and had yet to show themselves.
He needed to accelerate the pacing that he obtained power as well.
At this stage, all of the Inheritors had the ability to instantly kill other Inheritors. One-sided dominations did not exist yet.
Underneath the lake was a stone stele almost covered in mud.
The word “Purgatory” was written on it.
Looking at the stele, Jiang Feng knew that this place should be one of the game’s dungeons.
If he were correct, saving Xiao Qian might even open up this dungeon.
“Open!”
Yan Chixia took out a talisman and slammed it on the stele.
Boom!
The moment that the talisman was slammed onto the stele, it began to rumble. Next, a cracked form on the stele and a whirlpool-like portal opened before them.
“Get in, now! The talisman can hold for 10 seconds only!” After saying that, Yan Chixia entered the whirlpool portal quickly.
Xiao Longnu once again transformed back into her human form and jumped in together with Jiang Feng.
Boom!
After the three entered the whirlpool portal, the path began to slowly close.
At this time, Xiao Lan appeared next to the portal and went in without hesitation.

Once they were in Purgatory, Jiang Feng wanted to scream out his frustrations!
He really wanted to scream!
“Game designers, come out! This is not purgatory! I guess this must be even more beautiful than the Realm of the Immortals! I won’t even have the will to kill monsters here!”
In front of him was a bright blue sky littered with pure white clouds. The grass on the rolling plains was of lush green, the mountains were covered by layers of mists and the streams were crystal clear as they flowed. The deers pranced around and the cranes flew between the mists. As the cool wind brushed his face, he almost wanted to fall asleep in such a beautiful place.
Xiao Longnu grabbed his arm with a smile as she lay close to his shoulder with sleepy eyes.
“Ha!” Yan Chixia quickly bellowed out when he saw Jiang Feng and Xiao Longnu becoming dreamy.
“What happened, Master?” Yan Chixia’s bellow had awakened Jiang Feng and Xiao Longnu.
“This is all just an illusion. Do not fall asleep. Once you fall asleep, the agents of Purgatory would bring you both away. And then, you would become nothing but fresh meat to be fed to the Purgatory King.”
“But… This doesn’t look like the Purgatory that was supposed to be clouded in darkness. Master, did we take a wrong turn somewhere?” Asked Jiang Feng as he pointed at the beautiful landscape with confusion.
Yan Chixia rolled his eyes at him. “Have you not heard? The more beautiful something is, the more dangerous it is. When it is nighttime, take a look at this place again. It will frighten you!”
