Chapter 399: So Close, Yet So Far

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At this moment, Wang Mang’s imagination ran wild.

After he became a land immortal, he stepped on the local deity, and then punched the Lord of the Eighteen Hells!

The rest of the land immortal experts were also crying bitterly, and knelt in front of him, begging for mercy.

After his daydream ended, the excited Wang Mang muttered, "System, begin the evolution!"

[Ding! 60 billion evolution value has been successfully deducted! Beginning evolution...]

When Wang Mang woke up two hours later, instead of checking things out, he immediately said, "System, continue evolving!"

[Ding! The host does not have sufficient evolution value! Unable to evolve again!]

Wang Mang was stunned.

What the f*ck? Not enough evolution value?

Did he not still have 90 billion evolution value?

Puzzled, he decided to check things out.

"System, display my status information!"

...

F*cking hell!

100 billion evolution value?

Why did the amount required increase so much?

Was it because it involved an advancement to the land immortal level?

Not only that, but after his evolution, his ranking on the global list of experts had dropped by 10 places!

He was originally ranked 15th, but had now fallen to 25th!

If this continued, and he did not break through, who knew how far he would fall! It was also likely that this meant that ten new land immortals had been born on Earth.

It would be a lie to say that Wang Mang was not flustered.

"No! I have to quickly become a land immortal!"

Wang Mang’s good mood vanished. However, he had a plan in mind.

He wanted to clean out all of the demon embryos in the province as quickly as possible so that he would have enough evolution value to complete his land immortal evolution.

As for the local deity, that matter would have to wait. Unless he became a land immortal, completing that mission was simply impossible.

Wang Mang then left the cave and transformed into his true form. His eight wings unfurled as he soared into the sky.

The sun was exceptionally bright today, and as he flew along, he spotted a city in ruins. There were abandoned cars, and half-eaten corpses everywhere. The city was filled with zombies.

Occasionally, people would be seen fleeing frantically, being chased by a group of zombies.

Similar scenes were definitely happening in many other cities, but thankfully, Yi Zun City’s situation was still bearable.

The thing that made Wang Mang depressed was the fact that he had been searching for a few hours, but had still failed to find any traces of a demon embryo.

However, Wang Mang knew that he had not completed his mission. If he had, the system would notify him.

He carefully searched the city, but found nothing. After that, he searched the surrounding forests and mountains, but still nothing.

To be honest, Wang Mang did not know how many demon embryos there were in the province. Were they even all the same size? What if some of them were so tiny that he could not find them?

After searching for so long without any results, Wang Mang was somewhat frustrated. He was so close to the land immortal level, and all he needed was to eat one demon embryo to break through.

The feeling of being so near, yet so far, gnawed at him.

Just as Wang Mang was feeling a little disheartened and on the verge of giving up, the system’s voice rang out.
