Chapter 159: Defected Wicked Devil Frog
Two hours had already passed since the appearance of the Golden Pagoda, and many people attempted to climb it.
However, it seems that most of them didn't even pass over level three. Although they have to barely cross a certain distance to be eligible for the next level.
Each level in the Golden Pagoda contains a mysterious power that restricts the cultivators from further stepping into it.
Nonetheless, there are a few geniuses from each three peaks that have extraordinary means to cross the distance. Hence, a few have reached level five inside the Golden Pagoda.
While most of the disciples of the Agastya Clan were attempting to get one of the top 100 techniques of the Agastya Clan, Kritos was comprehending the Soul Technique Summoning inside the cave.
After a period of time, Kritos slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were glowing with excitement.
"If I had never participated in the Legacy tomb, I think I would have never seen an ancient summoning in my life such as it," Kritos murmurs as he stood from his position.
Calling it a technique was wrong, it is better to call it Ancient lost magic.
However, There was fatal weakness in this Summoning magic that it can only be used one time by each person.
This Ancient Magic can not be easily performed or used in the real world as this magic requires an understanding of Space Law.
Compared to Sincromas world, this illusory world is somehow directly connected to the Space and Time Law.
"Let's see if I can summon something good," Kritos excitedly makes a strange hand posture and begins to murmur some strange words.
A strange energy released from the depth of his soul which was absorbed by a black cloud that was hovering over Kritos's head.
With each passing second, a magic circle mechanically shaping, it took Kritos a several minute before he stopped mumbling.
"Good! Now, I just need to Dip a drop of my blood inside this devil summoning circle," Kritos said as he looked towards the magic circle formed.
It was first time, Kritos ever performed something other than cultivation techniques and skill.
Soon, Kritos accidentally cuts a deep wound and a huge amount of blood falls from his right hand.
"Crap! I cutted it too mu..."
Before Kritos could finish, darkness descended into his vision and his body stumbled and pushed away from the magic circle.
Not only that, but Kritos seemed to have sensed a terrifying creature. The calm and conceit on his face completely vanished.
His powerful aura completely dissipated, and his body trembled slightly like a leaf! What… was going on?
Kritos was puzzled. What happened?
At the same time, in Kritos's mind, the voice of the system sounded.
[Ding…]
[Due to the host possessing another person's body from another timeline, the Summoning process failed.]
[Detected an unlucky fellow accidentally jumped in the failed summoning magic.]
"Unlucky fellow?"
Kritos was confused by the System statement, the terrifying power he had earlier was definitely of a powerful devil.
It can't be that he failed to summon that powerful devil and some unlucky fellow got caught in its place.
As he looked towards the magic circle surrounded by the dark clouds, Kritos sensed that the presence of that terrifying creature was missing.
"Tsk! I was just away from summoning a powerful subordinate," Kritos sighed as he glanced at the unlucky fellow that System was telling.
Shortly, the clouds slowly disappeared and the body of some creature gradually appeared.
The creature possesses protruding green eyes, and strong, webbed hind feet that look like it is for leaping. It also possesses smooth, moist skin.
"Fu*k, is it even a devil?"
Kritos was shocked to death upon seeing the summoned creature.
Isn't it a frog?
Yes, the creature with no tail and smooth ugly skin.
An ordinary frog with a slightly big body!
However, Kritos felt that this creature looks familiar to a certain terrifying being that he once met.
Without further ado, Kritos immediately activated Greater Inspection on the frog.

[Introduction: Defected Child of Wicked Devil Frog Emperor, abandoned by its Race. As a child of the Wicked Frog Emperor, it has high vitality.]
[Estimated SP: 1000 SP ( Suggested host to kill it) ]
As he saw the last line on the Status screen, Kritos facial structure changes as if possessed by someone.
'System, If I kill it, will I get SP?'
[Ding…]
[The creature is genuine as it was summoned from the devil plane ( Abyss) into the illusory plane. Hence, the host can obtain SP upon killing it.]
Crook! Crook!! Crook!!!
The frog tries to approach Kritos as if it met its savior.
However, as he was about lick Kritos with its tongue, Kritos unexpectedly kicked it.
Crook! Crook!! Crook!!!
"Haha! What an unexpected gain! It's better If I just kill it and obtain SP."
Kritos drew out a dagger from the System Storage and immediately dashed towards the frog.
Upon sensing the danger, the frog efficiently used its tongue to attach it to the wall and jumped out.
"You can't run away from me, just obediently die for me!"
The frog stared at his master in confusion. It seems its savior betrayed him.
As he sees his master again approaching it with the killing intent, the frog again uses its tongue to escape out from the cave.
However, as he was about to exit from the cave, a fireball assaulted its back.
Crookkkkkk!!
The frog cried out in the pain!
"Sorry, but you can't escape from here," Kritos devilishly smiled while he hurried towards the frog.
However, before he could catch it, the frog suddenly extended its tongue to a huge degree and fled away from him.
"Damn it!"
Kritos cried out in frustration as he saw the frog mysteriously disappear in the bushes.
