Everyone's Class: One Effort, 10,000x Bonus Reward! - Chapter 417: Ambushes Along the Way, Bloody Battle Against the Witches
[Ding! Complete Supreme Miko treasure map detected. The 10,000x Critical Hit System has been activated. The treasure map’s level has been upgraded. The full route has been unlocked!]
The system’s voice rang out in Aiden’s mind.
In the void, the fully assembled treasure map turned into a huge golden 3D projection, clearly appearing before everyone.
“Oh my God, this temple has multiple levels!”
Cheryl could not help crying out in surprise.
On the projection, the structure of the temple was clear at a glance. The first level was marked as the [Treasury of Inner Spirit and Law Fragments]. Countless glowing dots covered the area, each one representing a precious resource.
“So many Inner Spirit fragments and Law Fragments! If all of them were absorbed, how many divine powerhouses could be created?”
Alexius sucked in a cold breath, his eyes filled with shock.
Deep inside the temple was the “Residence of the Supreme Miko Wraithshard.” It was a forbidden area that only the Primordial Mikos of past generations could enter.
Rainn stared at that level. The origin inheritance inside her body began to resonate strongly, and her beautiful eyes were filled with excitement.
At the very core of the temple, however, everything was covered by a thick mist. Through it, countless ancient chains and demonic runes could be seen intertwining with each other. They seemed to be connected to the ultimate secret of the ancient Great Destruction.
“The deepest area… there must be clues about how to repair the Law Core of the Golden Great Wall!”
Aiden fixed his gaze on the core area, a sharp light flashing in his eyes. This was exactly what he had come to the Abyss to find.
“Since we know the route now, let’s not waste any more time. Move!”
Aiden put away the map. Golden flames surged around him and instantly covered Rainn and Cheryl. Then he rushed toward the temple at high speed.
Alexius followed closely behind. His crimson flame heavy armor burst out with dazzling light.
However, at the very last moment before the golden projection completely disappeared…
In a shadow at the bottom-right corner of the map, a strange blood-red light suddenly flashed.
A line of ancient words, formed from countless vengeful souls, slowly appeared. They carried a chilling cold that made everyone’s skin crawl:
“The secret of the Miko is tied to the survival of all races.”
…
The heat left behind in Fallen Soul Valley had not yet faded. The golden flames in the void were still burning hot.
Aiden and the other three turned into four streaks of light, racing through the mountains at great speed.
The dark-gold treasure map became a guiding marker that only Aiden could see, pointing straight toward the Supreme Temple hidden deep within the mist.
“Be careful. Something’s wrong up ahead!”
Rainn suddenly pressed a hand to her chest. The origin inheritance inside her body had sent out a sharp warning.
Before she even finished speaking, the silent black forest around them began to twist violently.
Countless crimson flowers bloomed strangely in the air, giving off a sweet but sharp and sickening scent.
“It’s the Crimson Lotus Dreamscape… and the Bone-Eroding Curse!”
Cheryl’s pretty face changed. She quickly pulled out her staff and tried to raise a defensive barrier.
The void trembled. Dozens of fallen Mikos in black robes appeared from the shadows. Their faces were withered, and their eyes were filled with hatred.
“Those who invade the temple will have their souls fall into endless torment!”
As their sharp chanting rang out, countless black curse runes moved across the ground like poisonous snakes, madly biting into the group’s defenses.
At the same time, the earth rumbled. Over a hundred huge Abyss demon spiders crawled out from underground, spitting out highly poisonous webs.
“Petty tricks.”
Aiden let out a cold snort and did not even stop moving.
He raised his right hand. In his palm, a tiny flame flickered softly.
Basic skill—Fireball.
“Fireball? Brother Aiden, that won’t be enough to stop them…”
Alexius was shocked when he saw it. He was about to pull out the giant lava sword on his back and rush forward to fight.
But in the next second, his voice stopped short.
[Ding! Detected that the host has used the basic skill Fireball. 10,000x Critical Hit activated!]
Rumble!
The small flame, which had only been the size of a fist, expanded ten thousand times the moment it left his hand.
It turned into a massive blazing meteor nearly a hundred meters wide, carrying a terrifying power that seemed strong enough to destroy the world as it smashed down.
Boom!
The ground shook violently, and a huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky.
The Crimson Lotus Dreamscape, the Bone-Eroding Curse—none of it mattered.
In the face of absolute strength, they were instantly burned away.
The hundreds of Abyss demon spiders did not even have time to scream before they were turned into ash.
“This… this is the power of a Fireball?!”
Alexius’s eyes almost popped out of his head. He stood there completely stunned.
“You’ll get used to it. Aiden has always been this ridiculous.”
Cheryl lifted her chin proudly, as if she had been the one who attacked.
However, the Abyss did not stop trying to kill them.
As if drawn by the explosion, countless sharp screams came from the mist around them.
Thousands of fallen Mikos, covered by Abyss monsters, surged toward them like a massive wave.
This time, they had learned their lesson. They no longer spread out. Instead, they linked their magic power together.
“Grand Soul-Devouring Formation of Ten Thousand Witches, rise!”
A giant demon made of black mist, hundreds of meters tall, formed in the void. It opened its huge bloody mouth and spat out countless vengeful souls.
These souls ignored physical defense and rushed straight toward the soul seas of the four.
“Soul attacks? Perfect. I’ll use you to test my new skill.”
Aiden’s eyes narrowed slightly, and the magic power inside him surged like a vast ocean.
“Magic Mastery—Thunder’s Wrath!”
Crack!
The dark sky was torn open in an instant. Countless purple-gold bolts of wild lightning danced like furious dragons.
[Ding! Detected that the host has used Thunder’s Wrath. 10,000x Critical Hit activated!]
With the boost from the 10,000x Critical Hit, the violent lightning turned into a purple-gold sea of thunder, completely flooding the area for miles around.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Thunder was bright and pure, the perfect counter to these dark, evil souls.
The black-mist demon struggled wildly in the sea of lightning, but in the blink of an eye, it was blasted into nothing.
“I’m not done yet.”
A cold smile curved Aiden’s lips.
“Sacred Golden Flame Wheel!”
He formed a seal with both hands. The nine golden halos behind him instantly merged into one, becoming a huge sacred golden sun.
The golden sun spun and roared forward like a massive lawn mower, sweeping through the ranks of the fallen Mikos.
Slash! Slash! Slash!
Wherever the golden light passed, waves of enemies were cut in half, then burned into nothing by the golden flames.
Experience notifications flooded Aiden’s mind like a storm of sound.
“Too strong… He’s basically a walking natural disaster…”
Alexius swallowed hard. His awe of Aiden had reached its peak.
He finally understood why his master, the Flame God Ignis, valued this young man so highly.
Rainn looked at Aiden’s tall, steady back. Her beautiful eyes shone with emotion, and a strong sense of safety rose in her heart.
“Let’s go. Keep moving. Don’t waste time.”
Aiden’s face remained calm, as if he had only swatted a group of mosquitoes. He led the other three forward again, turning into streaks of light.
About an hour later.
The view ahead suddenly opened up, and a huge, dangerous canyon appeared before them.
But when Rainn and Cheryl saw what was inside, their faces instantly turned pale.
The wide canyon was packed with Mikos wearing heavy black armor.
There were tens of thousands of them. They stood in neat square formations, giving off a cold, fearless aura of death.
The Miko Death Soldier Army!
At the very front of the tens of thousands of death soldiers, a throne made of white bones floated in midair.
On the throne sat an old woman in a dark purple feather robe. Her face was dry and withered, but she released a terrifying pressure that seemed to cover the sky.
She slowly opened her eyes. Two ghostly green beams of light instantly pierced through the void and shot straight at Aiden.
“Rainn, you traitor. And you trash from the Great Shaw Empire. This old woman has been waiting for you for a long time.”
That terrifying pressure clearly went beyond an ordinary Venerable. It was close to the level of a Great Venerable!
Rainn’s body trembled slightly. She gritted her teeth and said one name.
“An old Primordial Miko… Morwenna!”
…
Rumble!
Before Morwenna’s bone-like hand could fall, a sharp phoenix cry suddenly rang out from deep in the void.
A beam of silver-white moonlight tore through the black mist filling the sky and slammed heavily into the other side of the canyon.
The earth shook violently once again.
Countless Miko cavalry in bright silver light armor, holding moon blades, rushed out of the moonlight like a tide.
“Morwenna, you want to take the supreme inheritance for yourself? Did you ask me first?”
A cold voice, like the lonely moon, echoed through the sky and earth.
In the void, a huge silver full moon slowly rose.
On top of the full moon, a beautiful middle-aged woman appeared out of thin air. She wore a white-feather priestess robe and held a silver staff.
Terrifying laws of frost surrounded her. Wherever she passed, even the void froze.
“Another old Primordial Miko… Nyxara!”
Rainn’s face turned serious. She lowered her voice and explained to Aiden.
“The Miko City has now split into two factions.”
“Morwenna wants to surrender to the Abyss Demons. She plans to use my Origin Inheritance as a sacrifice to awaken an ancient Demon God.”
“Nyxara belongs to the conservative neutral faction. She follows the ancient rules of the Miko race and refuses to get involved in outside conflicts. But she also will never allow Morwenna to take full control.”
Aiden narrowed his eyes and studied the two terrifying figures facing each other in the sky.
Two waves of pressure, both from Venerables above level 90 and even close to the Great Venerable realm, crashed into each other in midair.
At that moment, the void seemed to be split in two.One half was pure darkness.The other half was freezing frost.
“Kill!”
There was no more talk.
The tens of thousands of soldiers under the two factions instantly crashed into each other.
In the blink of an eye, the entire Miko territory turned into a Shura battlefield, like a giant meat grinder.
Black curse runes and silver moon blades twisted and clashed wildly in the air.
Countless Miko death soldiers and Moon Guards were turned to ash amid screams.
All kinds of high-level magic and waves of law power poured down like a storm.
War raged across the entire Miko territory, and space kept tearing apart under the violent energy.
And Aiden and the other three were standing right in the center of the battlefield.
