My Professions Have Too Much Personality

’However, a Morning Star Tier Professional can still wreak havoc in the Nether Realm. Only in special circumstances, like encountering the Lost Flame, would they end up utterly destroyed.’

Su Chen was hesitant. His true self was only a Tier Six Professional. Although he could contend with a Tier Seven, that was nothing in the face of the vast, boundless, and unpredictable Nether Realm.

Bringing his physical body into the Nether Realm might not necessarily be a good thing for him.

After weighing the options, Su Chen decided to run a few more tests.

He then entered the Nether Realm and returned to the real world several times, carefully observing the differences from before.

After going back and forth five or six times, he came to a rough conclusion. ’The time it takes to enter or leave the Nether Realm is two to three times longer than before. The original travel time wasn’t very long, so the difference isn’t that noticeable... but at a critical moment, that extra time could very well mean I can’t get back at all.’

Su Chen’s eyes flickered. ’Still, as long as I don’t wander too far and I’m careful, it shouldn’t be a problem.’

Being vigilant in times of peace was a virtue, but there was no need for groundless anxiety.

’Besides, this state isn’t without its benefits. At the very least, I can fight at my peak strength even in the Nether Realm.’

Su Chen’s thoughts shifted. The Netherworld Creatures were basically all Spirit Bodies, naturally born without physical forms.

Before, as a Spirit Body fighting other Spirit Bodies, he might not have had much of an advantage. But now, with a physical body, his advantage was much greater.

’And those Netherworld Creatures don’t follow the Professional path. Maybe... I can even go toe-to-toe with the Centipede Dragon now...’

As Su Chen thought this, the grayish-white land spread out from under his feet. He entered the Nether Realm once more. Fog seeped out from cracks in the ground, hazy like a damp veil.

He glanced left and right to get his bearings, then headed toward the Netherworld Stone Mine.

...

"Where is everyone?"

Su Chen was surprised when he arrived at the mine. The mountain loomed in and out of the fog. Because there were no Netherworld Creatures around, the fog was so thick that only the rugged silhouettes of the rocks were visible.

During the Dark Sun, a large group of Netherworld Creatures would gather here, but now, it was completely empty.

’Could it be because of the Flame Fire?’

A thought struck Su Chen. He looked up, using the main mine as an anchor point, and headed southeast.

Whenever the Blazing Sun arrived, the Centipede Dragon would retreat with its subordinate Netherworld Creatures. Su Chen didn’t know the exact location of their lair, only a rough estimate of its direction.

’A physical body naturally conceals the aura of an Outer Realm Spirit Body—a perfect concealment, in fact. In this case, I don’t have to worry about being discovered by powerful Netherworld Creatures.’

As Su Chen zipped across the Nether Realm’s landscape, he quickly realized another benefit of the Unity of Spirit and Body. Although his energy consumption had increased significantly, it was much more convenient in other ways. He could also use various Professional Abilities for support.

With a slight thought, his metal War Boots, enhanced to Tier Six, materialized and merged into his body. His speed instantly increased by more than just a little. Thanks to his Wind Dancer ability, the rushing wind, which would have torn at him at high speed, automatically parted around his body.

He felt almost no wind resistance, flashing past like a flowing shadow, gone in an instant.

Soon, he faintly heard a familiar wolf’s howl coming from the Nether Fog. It was probably Xiao Hei sensing his approach.

’Xiao Hei can always sense my arrival, but I can never pinpoint its location...’ Su Chen muttered to himself. ’Or is it because I haven’t found the right method?’

’However, every time I deactivate my mimicry, the Believer of Black Tuo should also disappear, but Black Tuo never seems to have any suspicions.’

’Could it be that it can’t determine the specific status of its Believers either?’

Su Chen muttered to himself. Along the way, he had already switched to his Faceless Ghost High Priest form. Now that he had descended in his physical body, the aura of the Deceitful God seemed even richer.

Even before he got close, large groups of low-intelligence Netherworld Creatures were already fleeing in terror.

THUD!

Su Chen landed, and the fog billowed. Before him was a cluster of rugged peaks, the highest of which was no more than five or six hundred meters tall. The cross-sections of the rock layers were as sharp as if they’d been carved by knives and axes.

The Centipede Dragon and its subordinate Netherworld Creatures were all prostrated here.

"It’s you?"

The Centipede Dragon saw Xiao Hei’s reaction and knew that the Faceless Ghost High Priest had arrived.

RUMBLE!

Its massive body deftly weaved through the rugged peaks, its scales scraping against the mountain rock with a deafening roar.

Its head lowered before Su Chen. The Centipede Dragon’s grayish-white pupils contracted as it sensed that some unfathomable change had occurred to the Faceless Ghost High Priest before it.

It even felt a faint sense of threat from him, a feeling it had never detected from the High Priest before.

Moreover, it could barely smell the scent of an Outer Realm Spirit Body on him. If not for Xiao Hei excitedly circling him, it wouldn’t even be sure if this Faceless Ghost High Priest was the same one as before.

"You seem... different," the Centipede Dragon’s voice rumbled as its massive body coiled around Su Chen.

Seeing the Centipede Dragon’s reaction, Su Chen relaxed slightly. A transparent substance was emanating from his body, enveloping him completely. Entering the Nether Realm in a physical body was a unique trait, one that could easily lead to unexpected complications.

He had used the Faceless Ghost Divine Power for concealment, and it seemed to be working quite well.

Su Chen ignored the comment and asked, "Why didn’t you go to the mine today?"

The Centipede Dragon suppressed its doubts, its wariness of the Faceless Ghost High Priest before it growing. Its voice was like the crash of rolling stones and thunder:
