This Summoner Is Too Powerful

"The cost and method of recruiting a substitute for each god vary."

"Here, for the Sleep God, it’s said that passing 1000 consecutive levels allows you to become its substitute."

Nan Xing said this.

"Really, sounds quite troublesome."

Li Pu was only interested, but not tempted to become any kind of substitute.

Being oneself is better, why become someone else’s substitute?

Moreover, they only have 7 days, getting through 1000 levels seems unrealistic.

According to Nan Xing, the later levels become increasingly difficult.

After gathering enough information, Li Pu decided to leave with Fufu.

As soon as the thought arose, words appeared in front of him.

[Kind-hearted you, not punching away the competitors here]

[Standing at the edge of the floating island, you plan to make the following choice]

[1. Set off again, fly to the upper cloud layer]

[2. You have a fear of heights, think lower is safer]

[3. Or you have your own idea, so you decide________]

Earlier Nan Xing introduced that once the words appear, the 12th level is randomly formed.

Whether up or down makes no difference, it’s all decided by luck.

Thus, Li Pu chose to go up.

After choosing, the buoyancy field lifted him and Fufu up, starting to float upwards.

"Really a convenient ability."

Looking up, watching the person and Fufu leave, Nan Xing showed a look of envy.

"Remember, sometimes you need to learn to make choices."

"After all, only by accepting the cost can you reap the rewards."

"Being a couch potato isn’t necessarily bad."

While they could still hear him, he earnestly said another reminder they couldn’t understand.

"?"

When Li Pu wanted to ask further, the distance between them already widened beyond communication.

Nan Xing is not like the likes of Wu Guinan or Chang Shoushang, unable to engage in various mysterious communication methods.

Before long, a cloud as large as a football field appeared above their heads.

Li Pu remembered clearly this was not a cloud they encountered before.

The cloud was magical, as they penetrated from below, they encountered no obstacles.

Yet once standing on it, they wouldn’t fall.

This time, the cloud wasn’t completely empty; there were many rough objects shaped from Cloud Body, like fake stones, mountains, trees.

The most striking was on the other side of the cloud, there was a red light gate.

At this moment, the position of Li Pu and Fufu was just at the other end of the cloud layer.

The red light gate, he saw for the first time.

Clearly, this wasn’t an instance entrance or anything.

The shape wasn’t quite right; usual light gates were vertical oval, but this one was circular, vortex-like.

It gave the feeling that some monster or beast might emerge.

[You feel a mysterious attraction from the Red Light Crystal]

[Very much want to touch it]

[Time limit 30 minutes, complete this task]

"Red Light Crystal? So it’s not a light gate then."

"But just touching completes the task?"

"Fufu, what do you think?"

Li Pu felt things weren’t so simple.

[Quiet!]

Fufu: Master is right, there must be something amiss!

Fufu didn’t understand anything, merely echoing.

After all, it was a Kung Fu beast that respected and obeyed its master.

"Such an easy task, yet given a 30-minute limit."

"Could complete in 10 seconds."

As Li Pu said this, intending to walk over but found his body won’t move.

Losing body control here meant triggering an option.

[You feel things aren’t so simple]

[It believes there’s certainly something amiss at this time]

[So you decide to observe and wait]

However, what seemed like an option only appeared as a few lines of text.

Buzz! x3

Sure enough, after a short wait, three beams of light descended from the sky.

Arranged in a triangle around the red glow.

When the light beams disappeared, three figures emerged.

They looked like ordinary humans, two women and one man.

The woman on the left held a bow, the woman on the right had a long sword.

The man in the middle had full muscles and wore a pair of gemstone gloves.

Judging from their weapons, they seemed of extraordinary quality.

These three people were standing on different colored cubic light bodies - pink, green, yellow.

Each cubic light body emitted its own light, projecting strange grid shapes on the ground.

They jumped off the cubic light bodies, standing in the colored grids belonging to them.

"Hey? You guys look, there’s a person over there."

"And a big baby owl!"

"Wow, really, so cute!"

"Quickly put away those starry eyes, they are competitors."

Once the three landed, they noticed Li Pu and the others.

However, due to distance, Li Pu only saw them conversing but didn’t hear the specifics.

But he could see the text.

[You discover competitors, three cubic warriors]

[Break through their defenses and complete your task]

As these lines appeared, a 30-minute countdown began in the upper right of Li Pu’s vision.

At this time the three people’s expressions froze, also receiving similar prompts.

[You discover competitors, a Kung Fu beast and its Summoner]

[Hold for 30 minutes and complete your task]

One side attacks, one side defends.

"Interesting."

Understanding the situation, Li Pu showed an interested expression.

This kind of battle was his first encounter.

Whoosh!

However, just within a sentence, the Archer across had already shot an arrow.

The arrowhead wrapped in energy like flowing wind, clearly not a mere ordinary attack.

[Quiet!]

Fufu: Someone come, protect the master!

Under the text prompt, Fufu actively chose to shield Li Pu, turning completely black.

Clang!

A crisp sound rang, it remained unscathed.

The arrow couldn’t pierce its [Steel Iron] defense, while energy attached to it was immune by [Smooth Dark Mirror].

"Well done."

Li Pu patted its head as praise.

"This owl, both cute and strong!"

Seeing this, the Archer couldn’t help but exclaim.

"But I’m not weak either, humph."

But she quickly spread her fingers, in a fully drawn bow pose.

Her bow and arrows were peculiar, without bowstring yet five arrows appeared when fingers drew, all wrapped in wind-like energy.

"Taste my [Split Arrow]!"

Despite her cute remarks, she was merciless in action.

Whoosh! x5

Five arrows traced a parabola, slightly trembling, then split into five.

Whoosh! x25

Twenty-five arrows continued splitting.

Whoosh! x125

A barrage of arrows rained down, creating a sense of despair with nowhere to escape.

They moved quickly, so fast even Li Pu couldn’t completely dodge.

Watching arrows grow rapidly larger in view, Li Pu suddenly felt time freeze, and options appeared.

[Facing incoming arrow rain, you plan the following choice]

[1. Tank it with your body, achieve nirvana instantly]

[2. Hide behind Fufu, be a cowardly turtle]

[3. Or you have other ideas, so you decide________]

He now knew these options often were somewhat suggestive.

Meaning this wave of arrow rain was enough to pose a threat to him.

"But this time, a decent choice is provided."

Li Pu directly chose 2.

Then, his body automatically crouched, hiding behind Fufu.

Clang! xN

Arrows struck black Fufu’s steel feathers, sounding crisply.

Seeing the attack ineffective, the Archer hurriedly increased intensity, more arrows continuously launched.

Yet, whether one arrow or multiples made no difference to Fufu.

It absorbed them all, remaining unharmed.

Moreover, numerous arrows could replenish its stable energy type, had no fear of [Smooth Dark Mirror] running out.

What Li Pu found strange was that the Swordsman and Boxer remained inactive.

They silently stood in their respective grid domains, positioned tense and ready.

One person and Fufu steadily progressing despite the arrow rain, soon closing in on the three.
