System: Replicating The Heavens-Chapter 43 Ch 43: Fear Of Unknown

[Consumed 30,000 Energy Points. duplication Successful. Obtained 'Berserker Blooldine' (Low Grade).]

Alex imagined what kind of power he'll gain after displaying the Mountain Gorilla Body and using the Berserker Bloodline at the same time. Thinking of this, Alex could not wait and duplicated the Berserker Bloodline from Arlo.

Berserker Bloodline was also a Low Grade Bloodline just like Mountain Gorilla Body which was a Low Grade Special Physique. It also consumed 30,000 Energy Points.

After duplicating the Berserker Bloodline, Alex chose to fuse with it and immediately felt very comfortable energy spreading throughout his body. After a few seconds, he suddenly felt tearing pain and could not help but let out a soft 'ugh' sound.

However, Arlo and Neon did not seem to hear his painful sound, not attracting their attention.

Alex's complexion changed and he tried his best to bear with the pain. This kind of pain, he didn't even feel when he was fusing with Mountain Gorilla Body, but for some reason, he was experiencing this pain now. It was also the first time when he was experiencing pain while fusing with something he had duplicated.

Fortunately, the pain only lasted for a few seconds before vanishing.

Alex secretly let out a deep breath of relief and wipe out the few drops of sweat from his forehead.

In the next moment, his face revealed an excited smile. He could not wait to use the Berserker Bloodline and Mountain gorilla Body to see how powerful he has become, but for now, he could only suppress his emotions deep down in his heart. Now was not the time to test his true strength. f𝗿e𝙚𝘸e𝐛𝚗𝐨𝙫𝚎𝙡.c𝒐𝐦

The trio sat down at the table and ordered some food and beast's meat to eat. At the same time, Arlo looked at Alex and said, "Junior Alex, since you could fight a battle to draw against Junior Neon, I guess your strength is very strong, much stronger than a martial warrior of the same cultivation stage. And since it is Junior Neon who is recommending you, I'll not reject you."

"Do you know where we are going and what we are about to do?"

Alex shook his head. Neon didn't tell him where they were going or what they were about to do. When he came out of the academy, Neon directly brought him here.

Arlo again asked, "Do you know why this city's name is Black Edge City?"

Seeing Alex shaking his head again, Arlo said, "About a hundred thousand years ago, a huge meteor from outer space fell down outside the city. At that time, as if calamity had descended upon the world, the ground trembled and countless lives were lost. And the place where the meteor fell turned into a dark abyss. After everything calmed down, many powerful people went down the abyss and tried to explore what exactly that meteor was, unexpectedly, they found nothing."

"After a dozen years of exploration, when people returned with no result, they started saying that there was nothing worth exploring down the abyss. But even after that, many people still went down the abyss with the hope of finding some rare treasure or at least, finding the meteor that fell from the sky. But the result was still the same. Everyone returned empty-handed."

"Because a dark abyss is outside the border of the city, thus the city was named as Black Edge City. It's been more than a hundred thousand years and with the passage of time, many powerful demonic beasts and other dangers were born down the abyss, resulting in it to become the only forbidden zone of our Red Leaf Country."

"No one thought of going down the abyss to explore and search for treasures. Until a few days ago..."

Saying till here, Arlo stopped, took a deep breath, and seeing that Alex was waiting for him to explain further with great interest, he once again said, "A few days ago, multilight shone brightly from the depth of the dark abyss. At the same time, a phenomenon appeared in the sky, causing a great uproar among people."

"Many people once again thought that a treasure is born. They went to explore again but found that a restriction has appeared. Only Golden Core Stage and below martial warriors could go and explore this time. Martial Warriors above the Golden Core Stage are unable to enter the abyss."

"I'm planning to form a team and enter the abyss to explore and search for the treasure or whatever it was that shone with multilight a few days ago. There are currently four members in my team and if you have no problem joining my team, then including you, there'll be five of us. We have decided to meet at the border of the Black Edge City."

Alex smiled and said, "Senior Arlo, I have no problem."

"In that case, let us immediately go after this meal!"

.....

"Brother Kai, Brother Ryan, we are here!"

After arriving at the border of the Black Edge City, Arlo, Neon, and Alex saw two people in the academy's clothes waiting for them. Arlo smiled and greeted them, followed by Neon and Alex.

Alex looked at the duos attribute panel but didnot find anything special. They were just ordinary Golden Core Stage martial warriors and both of them were at the Level 2 of Golden Core Stage.

After a short introduction, everyone set off and soon arrived in front of the dark abyss. Without wasting any time, they followed a premade path that has been here for more than a hundred thousand years and started going down the abyss.

As Alex and others went halfway down the abyss, they suddenly felt as if they had just passed some kind of restriction. At the same time, they also felt being restricted by some force, as if they were suddenly imprisoned and can not go out. The gravity also increased suddenly, causing everyone to bear pressure.

Everyone opened their eyes wide and looked back, only to see that the path they had walked down had suddenly disappeared at some point. They tried to go back but found that they can not go back, and could only move forward, continue to go down the abyss. This caused the fear of the unknown to be born in everyone's heart.

Alex was no exception. For some reason, he also felt something was wrong. This feeling came from the depth of his soul. He became cautious immediately and very carefully observed the surroundings.

The five of them talked about what to do. Seeing that they could not return back, they helplessly decided to go down and see why they were imprisoned here and why the path suddenly disappeared.
