Clang!
As her Nirvana Crystal Blades fell, the skeleton wolf was directly smashed to pieces; it had zero resistance.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Luo Puti did not stop, her arms were constantly swinging and her True Nirvana was continuously creating battle blades. They were beautiful crystals but each of them contained a powerful amount of strength.
The two skeletons were crushed by the Nirvana Crystal Blades that passed through them.
Shijie Luo is so strong! She’s definitely the strongest one with her True Nirvana!
Isn’t she? Those skeletons and carcasses are like paper when faced with Shijie Luo; unable to withstand a single blow!
Those skeletons are not strong at all. We can easily break their formation!
Luo Puti charged on, she did not need to use much effort for such a small matter like this.
The ones that arrived at the battlefield later expressed their admiration for her.
Those ten skeletons are not enough for Luo Puti! We must not stay put, let’s take on Xiangxi Phantom Lord!
Someone shouted from the crowd.
Onwards my brothers! Let’s capture our target and destroy them!
The pressure created by the people of Six Doors surged as they rushed towards the sea of skeletons!
Come back! Retreat from the sea of corpses! This battle is not that simple!
At this moment, Chen Xiaobei issued a loud warning.
Because when he met the two spirits earlier, they have said it clearly that this unusually huge bull-headed demon was raised by Xiangxi Phantom Lord. It turned out that this was only Xiangxi Phantom Lord’s secret weapon!
The corpses that were appearing now was merely to stall the crowd. They were intentionally released! The real threat had not appeared yet!
Mr. Chen, stop being a worrywart! This battle is only a trick and we will immediately capture Xiangxi Phantom Lord!
That’s right! Mr. Chen, you’re worrying too much! These skeletons can’t withstand a single blow! They’re extremely weak!
The people of Six Doors did not know anything about this unusual bull-headed demon. They were under the delusion that they could easily capture Xiangxi Phantom Lord! Not only did they ignore Chen Xiaobei’s warning, they continued to charge forward as well!
Upon hearing this, Lin Qisi mocked him,
Hehe, you’re just a weakling and you still want to give orders? Who do you think you are?
Chen Xiaobei had a cold expression and said grimly,
I might be weak but everything I say here is important!
Hehe, you really are hilarious! Everything you say is important? That is the most ridiculous joke I’ve ever heard in my life!
Lin Qisi roared with laughter.
You can’t even escape from me, kid. Yet you still have the guts to act like a know-it-all! You’re such a simpleton… Hahaha…
Open your eyes and look closer! Whether or not I’m pretending to be a know-it-all, you will instantly see the outcome of this situation!
Chen Xiaobei’s gaze was fixed, watching the scene before him.
Dammit! Did you just call me blind?
Lin Qisi bellowed.
You should be the one opening your eyes to have a clearer look! Xiangxi Phantom Lord will be captured soon, while you can’t do anything at all since you’re just a weakling!
Right in front.
Ouyang Jingxin, Wang Poqiong, Lin Nuta,o and a few elites from the three divisions already prepared a huge net, removing any possibilities of Xiangxi Phantom Lord’s escape. Wanting to capture him would be easy and they could catch him failing! At this moment, everyone had a triumphant expression on their faces. They could already imagine the reward they would receive once they complete the mission successfully!
However, this wonderful thought only lasted for a few seconds.
Rumble…
The next second, the entire area of the Carcass Horde Formation shook. It felt like a terrible earthquake that would cause the whole mountain to collapse.
Good heavens… What is going on here? Cough…
Lin Qisi almost choked on his own saliva as he watched this sudden scene unfold.
Hehe… You all are ignorant idiots! You don’t know anything about the formation of this horde of corpses! And you actually dared to come rushing in! That’s truly some real courage there!
Xiangxi Phantom Lord laughed sinisterly and slammed his huge hands onto the ground and shouted in a loud voice,
As I said earlier, all of you should offer your blood for sacrifice. Now, I will show everyone the real Carcass Horde Formation!
Rumble…
The ground full of carcasses was tumbling like a stormy sea, truly resembling a raging storm! Everyone was shocked by this scene of carcasses!
This is bad! Everyone, get away!
Luo Puti issued an order for the first time but unfortunately, it was already too late. She was in the middle of the carcasses horde with a huge dilemma!
The three divisions were rushing to the front while the ground was constantly trembling. As they were all unprepared, they tumbled onto the ground.
Grahhh!
At the same time, the corpses let out a terrifying roar!
Then, a huge pair of demon claws stretched out from the group of skeletons and soon, a shadow of a phantom that was about ten meters tall suddenly appeared! That demon was like a small hill and stood in the middle of the sea of corpses looking scornfully at Luo Puti!
Swish swish swish…
In the next second, the skeletons flew upwards and attached to the demon. The manner in which the skeletons has attached to the demon was like an outer layer of armor! The demon’s figure was finally firm! Its head was that of a bull and its stomach was bloated. An eerie looking face appeared on it with fangs and blood all over. It was incomparably savage!
A mysterious bull-headed demon?!
Chen Xiaobei eyes focused and he could quickly confirm that this was what Niu Niu and Nyu Nyu talked about earlier. This was the strongest demon that Xiangxi Phantom Lord raised!
Don’t panic everyone! Get yourself together and fight back! Withdraw from this huge formation first then we will come up with a plan!
Chen Xiaobei was very calm and loudly commanded everyone.
Watching how Chen Xiaobei was giving out orders, Lin Qisi was upset and shouted as well,
Don’t be afraid everyone! We are all carrying out this mission, everyone has the Mahogany Sword from Dragon Tiger Mountain’s Daoist master that is specially made to take this demon down! We will focus on our firepower and attack it!
When the words were uttered, Chen Xiaobei really wanted to slap the bastard Lin Qisi. He did not know what he was doing yet pretended to do so, as if he wanted to get everyone killed!
However, without waiting for Chen Xiaobei’s objections, the battlefield erupted!
Roar!
The bull-headed demon let out a roar and with its gigantic fists, making the rocks from above come crashing down like meteorites on Luo Puti’s head!
Ding!
[Cultivation: Eight-Stars Evil Spirit. Health: Eight-Stars Spirit. Combat power: 35,000!]
Chen Xiaobei immediately got an insight of that demon’s cultivation. His heart racing anxiously, he shouted loudly,
Puti! Retreat quickly! Don’t be stubborn!
At the same time, Chen Xiaobei took a step forward and prepared to rush into the battlefield.
You stay here!
However, in this dangerous situation, Lin Qisi grabbed a hold of Chen Xiaobei’s shoulder and coldly said,
You are not allowed to go!
Obviously, Chen Xiaobei was an important hostage in Ouyang Jingxin’s plan. Leaving him to Lin Qinsi was just to keep an eye on Chen Xiaobei!
Lin Qisi would absolutely not let Chen Xiaobei go!
As I said before! Everything I say here is important!
Chen Xiaobei had an icy tone, he used his right finger and pointed it straight at Lin Qisi’s chest!
A flash of bright light flashed in between his fingers.
Chapter 612: Do You Dare to Take This Slash from Me?
A cold ray pierced through Lin Qisi’s chest! At that split second, he could feel excruciating pain ravaging his body.
Ah! Ouch… Ugh…
A tormenting scream shrilled through the air. With Lin Qisi’s both eyes wide open, they looked like they were about to pop out of their sockets. Feeling like he was struck by lightning, his body started to twitch uncontrollably, like he was having a fit. His face was also twisted due to the extreme pain. Droplets of sweat filled his forehead, followed by him foaming in the mouth. One could only imagine the terrifying pain that he was going through.
‘You got it right! The cold ray refers to the Grandma Rong’s Silver Needle of Damnation!
The moment when Chen Xiaobei sensed that something fishy was about to happen, he placed one of the needles in his palm. As compared to other weapons, this tiny needle was extremely easy to be hidden in a small place. It was effective enough to render Lin Qisi defenseless.
Looking down from above, Chen Xiaobei spoke to Lin Qisi coldly.
It is true that your combat power is stronger than mine but I have a hundred ways to make your life a living hell!
After that, Chen Xiaobei dashed into the battle zone immediately.
Ouch… Ouch! No! No…
Lin Qisi’s pupils contracted as his head shook non-stop. Unfortunately, Chen Xiaobei did not remove the needle from his chest. Under the inhumane torture, he did not even have the strength to beg for his life. The pain caused him to scream and cry like there was no tomorrow. At that moment, a lesson was engraved in his mind – extreme pain like this was worse than death!
Pow!
At the same time, Luo Puti had to muster all her strength to dodge the Bull-Headed Demon’s Meteor Punch.
Considering that this demon is extremely powerful by nature and with the help of Carcass Horde Formation to strengthen it, defeating it is almost impossible!
Having to dodge the lethal attack, Luo Puti realized that the whole situation had taken a turn for the worse! Capturing the Xiangxi Phantom Lord was more difficult than she expected! She was lucky that Chen Xiaobei warned her to dodge the attack just now. If not, she would have died or become crippled if the punch landed on her.
Help! Shijie Luo… Help us…
Meanwhile, screams of fear could be heard from afar. Seemingly, the Bull-Headed Demon knew that it could not kill Luo Puti with ease and thus shifted its attention on the weaker ones.
Swoosh
It then proceeded to use its feet to sweep the crowd at lightning speed. Like a moving train, the force carried by this charging attack was beyond terrifying!
Oh my god… What the hell is that… I’m going to die today…
Look at that speed! I don’t think we can dodge it! We should have listened to Mr. Chen to retreat for now!
Why! Why did I choose to ignore Mr. Chen’s advice?! I’m regretting it now…
No! I don’t want to die!
…..
All of them let out a wail of desolation. Knowing that this Bull-Headed Demon was more powerful than them, a crushing blow like that was enough to kill all of them within a split second. Death awaited when they could not dodge the attack and defense themselves. To their knowledge, everything was set in stone now. Even the three vice chief inspectors felt extreme regret.
Don’t give up! Let’s work together to defend against the attack!
At that life and death moment, Luo Puti did not give up on them. Instead, she ran to them as fast as possible.
Shijie Luo… Shijie Luo is coming to rescue us! Brother, let’s persevere!
What? Shijie Luo did not run away? And, she is trying to save us?
Shijie Luo is a heroine! Everyone, do not disappoint Shijie Luo! Let’s support her all the way to become the chief inspector!
….
With her decision to stay put and rescue them, she managed to capture everyone’s hearts with her bravery. As the saying goes – taking down a country is easy but capturing the hearts of people is hard!
In the future, Luo Puti would definitely become the chief inspector of Six Doors since she was fully supported by the elites from three different divisions. Of course, that was in the future. Now, Luo Puti’s act of courage managed to boost the morale of those elites that were wallowing in desperation earlier.
Swoosh
Swoosh
Swoosh
All of them channeled True Qi to their bodies to enter the pinnacle mode! With Cinnabar Rune Mahagony Swords in their hands, they charged at the incoming feet at the same time.
Ice Phoenix Glory Wings!
With a light growl, Luo Puti tuned her True Kang to pinnacle phase as well! A materialized True Kang glacier was formed at her back and slowly becoming a pair of icy wings! Her speed was boosted tremendously with her wings moving on her back. Like an ice meteor, she dashed to the front line immediately.
Hehehe… Are you going to sacrifice yourself to defeat me? Unfortunately, all of you here are too naïve! The Carcass Horde Formation is the show of the day!
Swoosh…
Suddenly, a strong and cold wind blew at them. They could see a few streams of black Qi rising from the ground that went into the Bull-Headed Demon’s body.
Shit! This demon’s combat power is about to be boosted!
At the same time, Chen Xiaobei was trying his best to dash to their rescue. Knowing that he might not be able to save them in time, he had no one to blame but that bitch, Lin Qisi!
Bam!!!
It was finally happening! The Bull-Headed Demon’s feet came crashing down on the crowd with immense force – causing them to fly in different directions.
Blarrgghh
Even the most powerful Luo Puti coughed out a mouthful of warm blood after landing on the ground. Let alone others! Needless to say, all of them suffered from heavy injuries!
Shit… Not even our combined force can block its attack… We are so dead…
Soon, despair spread among them like a contagious disease. On the other hand, Luo Puti decided to stop channeling True Kang to her body. An enemy like the Bull-Headed Demon was just too powerful for them to kill. There was simply no point attempting to defeat it!
Surrendering could a relief to them. Suddenly, Luo Puti’s heart thumped rapidly as she remembered an important matter.
Xiaobei! Do not come over here! Run!
Luo Puti shouted in fear.
Immediately, everyone placed their attention on Chen Xiaobei.
Mr. Chen! Are you insane? Why did you come here to kill yourself?
What the hell is that kid trying to do? Is he trying to sacrifice himself to save Luo Puti?
Ouyang Jingxin commented.
Seeing Chen Xiaobei running towards them, Wang Poqiong and Lin Nutao’s expressions changed. They could not believe he was being suicidal while the both of them were struggling to survive. Anger rose in their bodies slowly.
Ignoring all their comments, Chen Xiaobei had a wooden sword in his hand and he was so ready to decapitate the demon that stood in front of him.
Demon! I dare you to take a hit from me!
Chapter 613: Kill with One Slash
Haha… Where did this joker come from? He’s not even a full-grown man! How dare you challenge my Carcass Horde Formation? You are going to get yourself killed! Ahahahaha…
Ignoring Chen Xiaobei’s existence, Xiangxi Phantom Lord started to laugh hysterically. After all, dozens of Six Doors elites were defeated. It was only normal for him to think that a young kid like Chen Xiaobei could never do anything to turn the tide.
Mr. Chen! Run while you can!
Don’t make a rash decision like this! Mr. Chen! Judging from your strength, this demon right here can kill you in one single hit!
Mr. Chen! Run! Don’t come over here and get yourself killed!
…..
All the elites from three different divisions of Six Doors were trying their best to convince Chen Xiaobei not risk his life. To them, Chen Xiaobei was still rather weak. Attempting to defeat this demon on his own was no different from killing himself. Seemingly, they were all grateful that Chen Xiaobei saved their lives earlier. None of them would want to see him being killed by this demon.
Suddenly, Ouyang Jingxin gave Wang Poqiong and Lin Nutao a wink. He then said in a soft tone,
Get ready! We’ll run like there’s no tomorrow when the demon attacks that kid! Let him be cannon fodder since he insists on being so!
The three of them had forgotten that Chen Xiaobei had saved their lives earlier. Without showing an ounce of gratitude, they could not care less about Chen Xiaobei sacrificing himself while they ran. Calling them cold-blooded was an understatement.
Xiaobei! Run now! I can still fight it!
At the same time, Luo Puti gritted her teeth and ran to Chen Xiaobei. There was blood on her exquisite lips; her ravishing face pale. It was extremely difficult for her to talk to Chen Xiaobei. With determination, she stood in front of Chen Xiaobei to protect him without any hesitation. Immediately, she invoked all the remaining True Kang in her body to make sure that she could protect Chen Xiaobei. With that being said, she was more than willing to die trying to defeat this demon that stood in front of her.
Wifey…
Rendered speechless, Chen Xiaobei felt extremely touch after witnessing the thing that Luo Puti would do for him. Maybe that was why he loved her so much. This ice-cold lady that stood in front of him was more adorable than anyone in this world! Of course, Chen Xiaobei did not plan to run away from this demon at all. Immediately, he stepped forward with a hand hugging Luo Puti from the back and used the other hand to pass the wooden sword to her.
With Chen Xiaobei hand holding her hand tight and being hugged from behind, Luo Puti’s body shuddered lightly. She felt safe when Chen Xiaobei was with her. However, she did not dare to indulge in this sweet moment for too long.
What are you trying to do? Go now! I don’t wish to see you die here!
Of course, of course I know that! I will not die. And, I will never let you die as well! Come, let’s bring the sword out and kill that ugly son of a bitch!
After that, Chen Xiaobei used his mind to communicate with the wooden sword.
This… What is this?!!
Upon sensing a strong stream of spiritual attribute, Luo Puti could not help but squeal in astonishment.
Pure Yang Talisman Sword!
Before entering the battlefield, Chen Xiaobei had already retrieved the Pure Yang Talisman Sword to defeat the demon. While his hand was holding Luo Puti’s, both of them swung the wooden sword together.
Shinng
That ordinary looking wooden sword whistled in the air with a metallic sound – followed by a seven-colored flame blazing around the sword! Seconds later, the wooden sword transformed into a seven-colored divine sword – like a phoenix rising from the ashes!
All the Yin Qi disappeared when the place was showered with seven-colored light! Hope was finally restored!
This… What kind of magical item is this? Such powerful Pure Yang Attribute!
Upon witnessing the magical moment, Xiangxi Phantom Lord could not help but roar!
No wonder a kid like you has the guts to challenge the Carcass Horde Formation! It seems you have a really powerful weapon to support you! Alas, your arrogance shall end there! I have spent around ten years to complete this Carcass Horde Formation! You just made a grave mistake if you assume that this is my limit!
Immediately, a hysterical shout was followed by his reply.
Carcass Horde! Raging Sea!
Seconds later, the Carcass Horde is moving like sea waves again. Streams of dark Qi exuded from the Carcass Horde and entered the Bull-Headed Demon’s body!
Roar!
Roar!
Suddenly, it became extremely excited. It was as if a shot of adrenaline was injected into its body. Clenching both fists, it kept on punching its chest – following by an angry shout that was loud enough to pierce through the nine heavens! One could sense that this creature was emanating a powerful aura. Clearly, its combat power had been boosted significantly.
Oh my god! I can’t believe that the Carcass Horde Formation could enhance its combat power! This… This is beyond terrifying…
We would have become a pile of minced meat if its power was boosted earlier!
This demon is just too powerful for us to handle! Only elites with later phase of True Nirvana Stage has the power to defeat it!
Can Mr. Chen kill it? Seemingly, the power of his magical sword is suppressed by the Yin aura of the demon!
We all will die here if Mr. Chen fails to defeat it!
…..
The crowd was terrified when they saw that the Bull-Headed Demon’s combat power was being boosted constantly. Naturally, Chen Xiaobei had become the center of attention because their lives were tied closely to him! All their hopes were placed on that sword!
Ehehehe… Kiddo! See that? That is the true power of Carcass Horde Formation! Your sword is nothing but a joke to me!
Laughing out loud, Xiangxi Phantom Lord was confident enough that the Carcass Horde Formation could defeat them.
Hehe… Is that your limit? What a disappointment!
As usual, Chen Xiaobei laughed in a relaxed manner.
What? A disappointment?
Motherfcker! How dare you act tough in front of me when you know that you are about to be killed by me! Do you know that Bull-Headed Demon’s combat power has already exceeded forty thousand?! Even if trash like you has one hundred lives, there’s no way for you defeat it!
Upon hearing Chen Xiaobei’s comment, his mood went through a 180-degree change – from happy to angry.
Hehe…
Chen Xiaobei could not be bothered to talk to him. He then ordered the Pure Yang Talisman Sword to charge at the Bull-Headed Demon.
Wind!
Roar!
With enough force charged, the Bull-Headed Demon charged at the sword with all its strength. At that moment, everyone thought that an intense battle was about to break out! Left in bewilderment, they could not believe what they were witnessing!
Ahhh!!!
An agonizing scream shrilled through the air as its fists disintegrated into ash by the seven-colored light from the Pure Yang Talisman Sword!
‘That’s right! The sword Qi alone was powerful enough to cause major inflictions to the demon! Well, the ending is pretty obvious now!’
Its whole arm was destroyed when the sword landed on it. Followed that, its bone armor was crushed and its body fading to white smoke. With no one stopping the sword, it flew straight to the Bull-Headed Demon’s head!
Wind! Shatter!
Upon hearing the sword whistling in the air, the bone helm was crushed and its head was decapitated! Its gigantic body fell on the ground and turned into smoke. Seconds later, there was no trace of the demon anymore!
With one slash, the immensely powerful Bull-Headed Demon was killed! Immediately, the whole place was silent.
Chapter 614: Voodoo Poison Triggered
How… How is this even possible? All my blood and sweat are wasted!
Xiangxi Phantom Lord’s voice sounded terrified and astonished. He just could not believe what he just witnessed. Seconds ago, he was mocking Chen Xiaobei for being foolhardy. With Carcass Horde Formation boosting the combat power of Bull-Headed Demon, he truly believed that it was more than enough to kill everyone here. He could never imagine that the Bull-Headed Demon would be killed by a single slash! This cruel ending left Xiangxi Phantom Lord traumatized. He even started to wonder whether he was dreaming.
Though he sounded afraid, his body did not even move an inch, which was unusual. Only Chen Xiaobei noticed this small detail as the others were gloating happily.
We won! Mr. Chen won! He just killed that demon with a single slash! This is truly unbelievable!
This is so cool! Seven colored divine light! It’s invincible! Mr. Chen, you are truly powerful and cool!
I said something wrong earlier. We thought Mr. Chen came here to be killed by the demon! I didn’t think that he would be the one to save us in the end!
That’s right! We have to thank Mr. Chen for saving our lives once again!
Thank you so much for saving our lives… Thank you so much…
…..
The crowd was left in a state of euphoria. Aside from shock, they actually felt grateful that Chen Xiaobei saved their lives over and over again throughout this whole journey.
Xiaobei…
Luo Puti turned around and stared at Chen Xiaobei with her alluring and soulful eyes. Looking at the man in front of her, she felt like she was drowning in nectar – turning her into a shy little girl.
Don’t say a word. Just kiss me!
With a grim smile on his face, Chen Xiaobei stared right back the woman that stood in front of him anticipatedly.
No way in this world that I will kiss you now! I-I have to go and capture that villain!
Immediately, Luo Puti’s face flushed and she had to make up an excuse to walk away. At the same time, the rest of them had calmed themselves down to carry on with their assignments. Slowly, they approached Xiangxi Phantom Lord.
Everyone! Be careful!
Chen Xiaobei reminded everyone loudly. He could sense that there was something wrong with Xiangxi Phantom Lord but he could not put his finger on it. After learning it the hard way, the crowd did not dare to disobey Chen Xiaobei anymore. With caution, all of them surrounded Xiangxi Phantom Lord.
Upon confirming there was no danger several times, Wang Poqiong ran to Xiangxi Phantom Lord immediately. He then grabbed on to Xiangxi Phantom Lord’s right hand and brought it to his back. Following that, he landed a kick on the joint of his leg to force him to kneel on the ground!
Got it! Finally, I capture Xiangxi Phantom Lord! From today onwards, I’m the chief inspector of Six Doors! Hahaha…
Not only he did not receive any praises from anyone, instead, he was greeted with stares of contempt.
Vice chief inspector Wang! Don’t you feel embarrassing for saying something like this? Mr. Chen and Shijie Luo are the ones that brought him down! You have no right to claim this glory!
That’s right! Without Mr. Chen and Shijie Luo, you’d be on your way to heaven! Also, do you really think you can stay alive and talk shit here if they did not save your life?
Six Doors is responsible for maintaining the order of Jianghu! We have to act accordingly and be reasonable! The chief inspector position belongs to Shijie Luo! Do not expect our service if the chief inspector isn’t her!
That’s right! Support Shijie Luo! Support Shijie Luo!
…
The truth was clearly shown and the crowd was not blind either. Without waiting for Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti to say a single word, all of them took turns to land a slap on Wang Poqiong’s face. Taken aback, he was drowning in embarrassment. As the saying goes, capture one’s heart and you can have the whole world!
Initially, Ouyang Jingxin and Lin Nutao wanted to pull the same thing as well. However, they chose to shut their mouths and they saw things had gone sideways. Neither of them wanted to be enemies of the public. Unfortunately, they were still adamant about carrying out their evil plan. The two of them tried to approach Chen Xiaobei slowly and silently.
‘As long as we capture Chen Xiaobei, we can force Luo Puti to drop all her defenses! By that time, we just need to kill all of them and claim all the glory!
Remove his mask!
Luo Puti strode towards Xiangxi Phantom Lord and gave on a stern order.
Yes…
Rendered in frustration, Wang Poqiong had to obey her order.
Everyone shifted their attention to Xiangxi Phantom Lord. They were curious about this extremely evil man’s look.
Pow!
Without warning, Xiangxi Phantom Lord’ stomach exploded! Like a bomb, its explosive power was powerful! Dozens of black Qi flew towards the crowd at lightning speed. No one among the crowd managed to dodge the black Qi because they were standing too close to him.
Shit… What the hell just happened?
Within a split second, everyone including Chen Xiaobei was marked by the black Qi.
Shit! This is poisonous gas… I can’t come up with any strength at all…
It’s a trap! This Xiangxi Phantom Lord is vicious!
We will all be dead if he shows up right now!
…….
Screaming in despair, they collapsed to the ground one by one. Earlier, they had suffered some really serious injuries when they fought the Bull-Headed Demon. Upon being poisoned by the black Qi, none of them possessed the strength to stand up anymore.
Xiaobei! Are you okay?!
The first thing that Luo Puti did was to show her concern to Chen Xiaobei.
I’m poisoned as well…
Where is your fragrant pouch? I thought you possess a fragrant pouch that serves as an antidote?
The fragrant pouch that she mentioned was Seven Treasury Fragrant Pouch – the one that he used to alleviate her pain.
This poisonous gas is rather special. It’s not an ordinary poison! I wouldn’t have been poisoned if the fragrant pouch is working as it should! If I’m not mistaken, this should be the poison that comes from voodoo that carries a curse!
Curse?
Voodoo?
Everyone fell into a deeper despair when they heard these two words. They had no idea how these two things work together but they could sense that imminent danger was about to befall them.
Eheheh… I have never expected that a kid like you to know about stuff like this! I would love to spend time talking about voodoo and magical items with you! However, I will not! You destroyed my ten years’ worth of blood and sweat! I’m going to cut your flesh piece by piece! Then, I will suck your blood dry and place a curse on your clothes when you die, to make sure that you will be trapped in hell and never get reincarnated!
A creepy voice could be heard from the end of the Carcass Horde Formation. Seemingly, his real body was not there. The one that exploded earlier was his scapegoat! At the same time, heavy footsteps were approaching them from the shadows.
Chapter 615: Key to Salvation
We are so dead… We are goners this time…
Soon, everyone collapsed to the ground. Upon hearing the heavy footsteps approaching, the crowd could feel that death was closing in on them. Despair had flooded the whole area without any mercy.
Xiaobei… Are we going to be killed this time?
Luo Puti looked at Chen Xiaobei with pleading eyes.
Previously, Chen Xiaobei managed to save them from two life-threatening events – pulling them out from the pits of despair. At this moment, Luo Puti really hoped that there would be a miracle again!
I still have a lot of things left unfulfilled… If I die here all would be in vain…
Losing her composure, Luo Puti could not help but voice out her deepest thoughts. Her crystal-clear eyes slowly turned misty. Her messy hair covered her pale face. It was quite a beautiful scene but there was a feeling of reluctance in it. All those years, she did whatever it took to become the chief inspector of Six Doors. Power and authority were not things that she lusted for. It was all for an incident that she investigated for the longest time she could remember. This incident served as a motivation for her to train herself to be able to increase his combat power in the shortest time possible. That was why she gave up the opportunity to make friends to become part of Six Doors. Even when she was controlled by Poseidon, this incident was the reason why she could persevere till the end! To her surprise, she did not expect that she had to put an end to her perseverance right now.
Don’t be nervous! Have some faith! There will be a way out eventually!
Ehehe… You are really good at consoling yourself! The source of my voodoo curse is from the Yin Qi of dead bodies. There is no way in hell that you can remove this curse! That’s right! You guys are going to die anyway! Just stay there and let me do whatever I want! All of you here are no different from the pigs at the slaughterhouse! Don’t worry! I will kill you in the end! I want to make you watch while I kill them in front of you! Kill me if you can! Ehehehe…
A lean and fragile shadow could be seen walking out from the darkness that laid before them.
He’s here… He’s here… We are so done for…
The crowd let out their final wails of despair. Knowing that all hope was lost, more than half of them had lost their minds. Their bodies were shaking uncontrollably and some of them even passed out. Like a statue, Luo Puti lay on the ground as she felt her soul leaving her body.
Shriveled corpse? Another puppet?
At that moment, Chen Xiaobei was the only among them that could remain calm while observing the person that approached them slowly. The person looked like a shriveled corpse with only skin and bones left. A sharp dagger could be seen held tightly in his hand. Though he did not look powerful, it was more than enough to kill a group of paralyzed elites.
Bastard! What now? Who do you want me to kill first? Just point at one and I will fulfill your wish! Ehehehe…
Xiangxi Phantom Lord’s laughing was a direct insult to Chen Xiaobei. From his point of view, everything was already set in stone. What he was about to do next was nothing more than a game. Ignoring him, Chen Xiaobei’s mind was whirring, thinking of a way out. He considered the fact that Xiangxi Phantom Lord already had everything under his control, yet still did not dare to show his true self. That was enough to prove that his true self was actually extremely weak! Most of the shamans and wizards would not focus on martial arts. People like Feng Qingyang that practiced martial arts and shamanism was extremely rare.
That being said, the whole thing would be a smooth sailing as long as they could remove the poison from their bodies and find the real Xiangxi Phantom Lord. Now, Chen Xiaobei had to focus and figure out a way to remove the poison from everyone’s bodies. Unfortunately, he could not think of a way to do so no matter how hard he tried.
Bastard! Why are you so quiet? Are you too afraid to say anything? I’m going to start with this woman right here if you still refuse to talk to me! Should I cut her face first or chop off her delicate fingers?
I will fcking torture kill you if you lay a hand on her!
Immediately, Chen Xiaobei glared at Xiangxi Phantom Lord like a mad dragon! With his powerful and dominant aura emanating from his body, everyone around him was taken aback.
Ehehe… It seems like I have picked the right person to kill! I’m going to start with her! I want to watch you suffer!
I dare you to!!!
Chen Xiaobei roared once again. His eyes were filled with blood and veins were about to pop out from his skin. With the pressure continued to increase, the mad dragon would definitely destroy everything in its sight once it was freed from the chains. Unfortunately, his current circumstance was no different from sitting in a cage due to the poison. No matter how angry he got, there was nothing he could do if he failed to get rid of this poison from his body.
What to do now?! What should I do to get rid of this poison from my system?! I will allow anything bad happens to Puti! Never…
Without wasting any time, Chen Xiaobei was trying his best to find a way out. As the saying goes, your mind will be a mess if you fail to calm yourself down! Seeing that Luo Puti was about to be killed, Chen Xiaobei’s was extremely frustrated. He just could not think straight anymore, let alone finding a way that would work!
Oh right! This is exactly what I want! The greater you suffer the happier I am! Ehehehe…
At the same time, the shriveled corpse strode towards Luo Puti slowly with a dagger in his hand.
No!
At that moment, Chen Xiaobei could not think of a way to save her anymore. All he wished was to take her place to save her life.
Bastard! Open up your eyes and watch me kill her! The show starts now! Ehehehe…
However! In a sudden turn of events…
Everyone’s attention was drawn to two small spiritsl; a little boy and girl. They flew towards Chen Xiaobei while shouting,
Savior! Savior!
The reason why everyone placed their attention on them was that the shriveled corpse stopped attacking Luo Puti. Instead, it attacked those two spirits!
Niu Niu! Nyu Nyu!
Why are you guys here?! It’s really dangerous! Run!
No! We will not run! We can get rid of the poison in your body!
Suddenly, Chen Xiaobei realized why the corpse turned around to attack them. They were the key to their salvation!
How did you guys end up here? Leave now! If not, I will destroy your spirit!
Xiangxi Phantom Lord knew better than anyone that the two of them should not be there!
Chapter 616: Dominating Kill
Swoosh
Swoosh
Swoosh
The shriveled corpse’s combat power was actually pretty high. With the speed that the dagger swung, he could land every single slash on those two spirits! However, it seemed like Xiangxi Phantom Lord had lost his mind. The dagger was just an ordinary weapon. It was not Pure Yang item. There was no way that he could hurt those two spirits with it.
Savior! Here we come!
With that being said, the two of them managed to fly past the shriveled corpse without being hurt by it. Immediately, they pursed their lips and used all their strengths to suck something out from Chen Xiaobei.
Siii…
One could see that there were two streams of black Qi being sucked out of Chen Xiaobei’s body.
That is the Yin Qi from a dead body. It was used by Xiangxi Phantom Lord to plant his curse on us!
Having a clear mind once again, Chen Xiaobei managed to make a quick deduction.
Klak
Klak
Klak
At the same time, the shriveled corpse dashed at Chen Xiaobei, stepping on the bones that were on the ground.
Are we done? The enemy is charging at me!
Filled with worry, he knew he would be killed if the poison could be not be removed from his body in time. The two spirits then shook their heads to indicate that the detox process was not done. The interesting part was the two little spirits turned into a pair of chubby kids. Their faces and stomach ballooned up – making them looked really adorable. Maybe the Yin Qi was like supplements to them.
Hurry…
Upon witnessing Chen Xiaobei slowly recovering from the poison, the hopes of the officers from Six Doors were restored. None of them expected something so dramatic would happen right before them. The two little spirits were accused by Lin Qisi for being evil spirits became the light of hope during their darkest hour. The two little spirits were like angels to them right now. With hope, they prayed that the two of them could help Chen Xiaobei to get rid of the poison in time.
Don’t even dream of getting rid of my poison! Die now!
Suddenly, Xiangxi Phantom Lord let out a ghastly roar. Before they realized it, the corpse was already closing in on Chen Xiaobei. One could see that the corpse was going to use all its strength to stab Chen Xiaobei with the dagger in its hand.
Shit! Watch out!
At the same time, everyone tried to muster up all their remaining strength to warm Chen Xiaobei about the incoming attack. They were so nervous that their hearts almost jumped out from their bodies. Understandably, this was their final hope. However, all their fears ceased to exist the next second.
Shinnng
Right before the dagger stabbed Chen Xiaobei’s heart, all the poison in his body was cleared! At lightning speed, he used the two fingers on his right hand to stop the dagger. No matter how hard it tried, the corpse could not move the dagger anymore. The level of their strength was completely different.
How… How does that happen? Just a bit more… Just a bit more and I can kill you!
Within the darkness, Xiangxi Phantom Lord let out a wail of anguish. Clearly, he knew better than anyone this was his last chance to kill Chen Xiaobei. With that being said, his trump card had failed miserably!
POM!
POM!
POM!
Like rain falling on the ground, Chen Xiaobei landed countless punches on the corpse. Seemingly, it could not even defend itself because the gap between their combat power was just too big – turning him into a punching bag.
Klak
Klak
Klak
Chen Xiaobei broke all the bones of the corpse.
Nice one! That’s a good beating!
Finally, the people around Chen Xiaobei were so relieved when they saw their enemy was being beaten by Chen Xiaobei.
Wind!
Like dragon claws, Chen Xiaobei penetrated the corpse’s chest with both of his hands. It split in half when he opened up his arms with immense force. Finally, the shriveled corpse stopped moving and Xiangxi Phantom Lord did not dare to say a single word anymore.
Immediately, Chen Xiaobei ran to Luo Puti and embraced her. He then asked gently,
Are you alright?
Luo Puti shook her head lightly. She regained her vision and Chen Xiaobei’s image went straight into her heart.
Niu Niu! Nyu Nyu! Can you guys help them to get rid of the poison in their bodies?
We can’t take in more Yin Qi.
The two of them shook their heads and rubbed their stomachs at the same time.
After putting some thought into it, Niu Niu said,
Save our friends and they can help to get rid of your friends’ poison!
Okay! Bring me there! I will help the two of you set your friends free!
Immediately, Chen Xiaobei agreed to help them without any hesitation. Of course, he remembered that there were spirits of forty-seven kids’ being imprisoned in the Palace of the Living Dead. All of them were murdered by Xiangxi Phantom Lord brutally. He then planted curses on them to make sure they could not go through reincarnation. Earlier, Chen Xiaobei felt sorry for the things that they had to go through. That was why he did not hesitate to rescue all of them.
Puti, all of you should stay here to get some rest. I’m going with them to rescue all their friends. I will come back as soon as possible.
While talking, Chen Xiaobei took out a bottle of Hundred Herbs Potion and fed it to her. This could help cure her internal injuries. Right after that, Chen Xiaobei took out a dozen Hundred Herbs Potion and distributed them to the officers of Six Doors.
Wow! What kind of medicine is this? I can feel that my internal injuries are recovering! All my tiredness and hunger are gone as well!
You are right! I felt the same! This is truly magical!
Thank you, Mr. Chen… Thank you so much…
Sir, you have saved our lives three consecutive times… We have no idea how to repay your kindness…
…..
Left in bewilderment, all of them were amazed by the medicinal effect of Hundred Herbs Potion. At the same time, they were really grateful that Chen Xiaobei saved their lives over and over again. Some of them even addressed him as sir.
You guys just need to serve Luo Puti well. Helping her is equivalent to repaying my kindness.
Mr. Chen, don’t you worry! We saw that Shijie Luo was more than willing to sacrifice herself to save us! We will definitely not forget her heroic act! Upon returning to Six Doors, we will make sure that the chief inspector position will be given to her! Knowing that she is going to become our leader, we will always obey her order no matter what!
Everyone expressed their gratitude genuinely. Nodding his head, Chen Xiaobei then turned around with a smile on his face and asked,
How about you three here?
Ouyang Jingxin, Lin Nutao, and Wang Poqiong shook unconsciously when Chen Xiaobei glared at them. Initially, all three of them wanted to do something awful to Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti but now they had to bow at Chen Xiaobei because of the poison in their systems.
We… We will support and help Shijie Luo in the future as well! From today onwards, all three of us here will follow her orders!
Mr. Chen… Can you please give us some of the magical medicine? We have suffered some internal injuries as well… It would be bad if we passed away before you come back…
Wang Poqiong asked boldly. Chen Xiaobei then raised his eyebrows and said,
Alright. You guys can have it.
Deep within his eyes, a ray of light glinted.
Chapter 617: Special Corpse
After giving Ouyang Jingxin, Wang Poqiong, and Lin Nutao three bottles of special Hundred Herbs Potions, Chen Xiaobei marched forward to the darkness that laid in front of the Carcass Horde Formation with Niu Niu and Nyu Nyu. On the other hand, Lin Qisi was still suffering from the Needles of Damnation. Chen Xiaobei could not care less about him. The best part about this item was inflicting pain on one’s body without killing the person.
Lin Qisi would definitely wish for a quick death instead of being tortured by the excruciating pain. All Chen Xiaobei cared about was making sure Lin Qisi would stay alive and that the pain would fry his brain.
At the deepest part of the shadows, a hidden ladder was presented in front of Chen Xiaobei. After climbing a thousand steps down the ladder, everything in front of him changed completely. He could see two stone pillars that looked like beasts standing right in front of him. With the light that came from the burning torch on top of the stone pillars, the whole place was lit up.
In between the stone pillars was a huge white door. A yellow paper talisman could be seen stuck between the crack of the door. On top of it was a stone table with the words, Palace of the Living Dead engraved on it.
Such concentrated Yin Qi! Are your friends inside?
Yes. They are all inside!
The guards here had been defeated by you. All you need to do is tear off the talisman and open the door. However, you have to prepare yourself before you open the door. You might freak out by what you see later.
I don’t think so! I’m actually quite bold!
With a smile on his face, Chen Xiaobei strode to the door and tore the talisman off the door.
Creak
The white door shook. It was as if something from inside was trying to break free. Despite his astonishment, Chen Xiaobei stayed put. He regained his composure and attempted to push the door open slowly.
Oh… Oh my god…
Though he did all he could to prepare himself, the thing that he saw behind the doors shook him to to the core. Immediately, his breathing quickened as he unconsciously took three steps back. He did not expect to see a living hell behind the door! Forty-nine children’s bodies were kneeling in front of the door.
Their eyes were wide open but there was nothing inside their eye sockets. Forty-nine pairs of empty sockets were staring at Chen Xiaobei. Even a powerful elite like Chen Xiaobei could feel his skin prickling all over. The most unusual thing was that their bodies did not decay even though their skin was grayish black. Lines and lines of crimson talisman inscriptions were written all over their bodies. Chen Xiaobei could never fathom sorrowful and sinister scene if he did not see it with his own eyes.
Savior, are you alright?
I’m fine… Free your friends.
With all the experience that he gathered throughout the years, he managed to regain his composure faster than most of the ordinary people.
Guys! Come on out! Our savior had defeated the Bull-Headed Demon! We are now free!
Swoosh
Swoosh
Suddenly, wind started to ravage the place. One by one, all their spirits flew out from their bodies.
This is great! We are finally free! No more being imprisoned inside this place!
Savior! Who is our savior?!
This right here! This is the big brother that defeated the Bull-Headed Demon!
Thank you, savior… Thank you so much…
…….
Like a group of happy elves, dozens of them flew around Chen Xiaobei. As all of them were murdered when they were children, they were still innocent and pure of heart. None of them carried any evil thoughts with them. To Chen Xiaobei, they were like a group of adorable elves. After some time of playing, they finally began to settle down.
Sigh…
One of the older children lamented,
We are free now but what can spirits like us do in this world?
Rendered speechless, none of the children could answer his question. It seemed that all of them were troubled by the same question.
I can help you guys go through reincarnation if that is your wish!
Clearly, this was the best option for every single one of them.
Big brother… Are you serious? It will be great if all of us can be reincarnated!
That’s right! There’s nothing left for me in this world anyway! I want to have a brand-new start in my next life!
Don’t even think about it! Our bodies are cursed! We will not be able to go through reincarnation if no one can help us to get rid of the curse!
We have been trapped here for so many years. I don’t think there is anyone in this world can help us to get rid of the curse on us! Big brother right here is just trying to console us…
……
Clearly, the children did not believe that Chen Xiaobei could help them reincarnate. They lowered their heads in disappointment.
Don’t worry! I promise you guys that I can definitely help you with reincarnation! Yanwang is my good bro! I’m pretty sure he can help me with this problem if I talk to him about it!
What? Yanwang is your good bro? Big brother, you are really good at bragging!
That’s right! Do you really think you can fool kids like us?
Big brother! Do you know that your nose will grow really long if you lie?
……
All the children thought that Chen Xiaobei was lying to them.
Well, you guys can’t leave this place anyway. Why not try my method? Maybe I’m not lying,
Chen Xiaobei said with a confident smile. His friendship with Yanwang was actually quite solid.
Big brother is right! Why not try it? We might have the chance to be reincarnated! However, we will lose the opportunity if we don’t give it a try!
That’s right! Let’s listen to our big brother! We should try it!
Big brother, tell us. What should we do now?
…
This group of children was smart. Upon reaching an agreement, all of them flew to Chen Xiaobei at the same time.
I need you guys to fly back to your bodies. I want to snap a few pictures.
Chen Xiaobei took out his cell phone while giving instructions.
Alright!
Immediately, all of them followed Chen Xiaobei’s instruction and flew to their respective bodies to wait for further instructions. Just when Chen Xiaobei prepared to snap a picture of them, he noticed something weird.
Eh? There is one more body over there? Why is no one flying to that body?
Other than that, the eyes of that body were closed.
Something’s wrong!’
Ah!! I know now!
Chen Xiaobei quickened his strides towards the body immediately.
Chapter 618: What Do You Want?
While walking, Chen Xiaobei was playing with his cell phone. He then retrieved something from his treasure chest. His glare was cold as he walked towards the unique corpse.
Open your eyes, Xiangxi Phantom Lord!
All the children around him were bewildered when they heard what he just said.
Big brother! Why are you talking to the dead body? How can a dead person open his eyes?
I thought you guys said he is dead? Where is his spirit?
This…
Other than that, the children that Xiangxi Phantom Lord captured are boys and girls. Forty-eight children are equivalent to twenty-four pairs of children. How come there is one extra child there?
Left in bewilderment, the children put some thought into it and they found out there was something wrong with the last child.
If I’m not mistaken… All the things that Xiangxi Phantom Lord did were completed by his puppet! His true self was always here. With that, he could stay safe all the time. And, he can pretend to be a corpse even if his enemies or law enforcement come looking for him.
So, he is our killer? But, his body is ice cold and he is not breathing. How is he alive?
The Black Tortoise Breathing Technique and feign death pill can help a person fake death! It’s actually pretty easy to see whether he is faking death!
After that, Chen Xiaobei planted a Silver Needle of Damnation on his chest.
Ah… This is so painful… Pain… I’m going to die… Ouch…
Less than half a minute, the ‘corpse’ on the floor let out an agonizing scream. Clearly, Xiangxi Phantom Lord was the one that screaming!
He is alive… That corpse came back to life! Big brother’s deduction is right on point!
The children around Chen Xiaobei were freaked out when they saw the corpse move.
Mercy… Brother… Mercy please… Too painful… Pain… Brother… Hero… Grandpa!!!
Xiangxi Phantom Lord was begging hysterically. Considering that his physical body was not as strong as Lin Qisi, he began to twitch uncontrollably a few seconds later. It was so painful that he started to roll his eyes and foam in the mouth.
Mercy? You fcking garbage! The crimes that you committed are enough to incur the wrath of everyone that lives on this earth! Do you really think you still have the right to beg me to let you go? And, have you forgotten that I promised you that you will spend the rest of your life in a living hell?
Not only he did not show any mercy to Xiangxi Phantom Lord, he planted a needle on his forehead, scalp, Dantian, both of his hands, and legs. Taking the needle on his chest into account, there were a total of nine Silver Needles of Damnation on his body. Not even an incredibly powerful elite could withstand the pain that caused by one Silver Needle of Damnation. Now, there were a total of nine Silver Needles of Damnation on his small and lean body. Words could not describe his pain anymore. He would definitely not hesitate to end his life if he was given an option to do so.
Unfortunately, Chen Xiaobei did not provide him with any options. He had to spend an eternity under the torture of Silver Needles of Damnation.
Pheww
Chen Xiaobei let out a long sigh. All his stress and frustrations were gone with the wind.
Alright! Children, let’s continue!
Clearing his mind, Chen Xiaobei started to take a few pictures of the children and sent them to Yanwang. Normally, Yanwang would reply him instantly but this time Chen Xiaobei had to wait for quite a long time for Yanwang to reply his message.
Yanwang: Brother Xiaobei! Speak up quick! I’m talking to a very important guest! I have to make up some excuses to come out here! Soon, I need to head back!
Eh? Very important guest? Yanwang is a deity of high rank. The one that he is talking must be some extremely powerful deity! I have to make it as quick as possible to not make his life difficult.
Chen Xiaobei: So, this is the case. That group of children has curses on them! The curse prevents them from going through reincarnation. I want to help them!
Yanwang: This is easy. All you need to do is look for Zhu Bajie and get some Divine River Spiritual Water from him. You can use it to wash away all those talisman inscriptions on their bodies. After that, the curse will be lifted up from them.
Chen Xiaobei: I want them to be happy in their next lives. Is there a way to do it?
Yanwang: This… There is… But, I don’t think it’s necessary… They are after all just children that have done no evil deeds. I’m pretty sure they will be reincarnated into good families.
Chen Xiaobei: Just tell me the way! I’m willing to pay the price! They saved my life during a life-threatening situation! I have to repay their kindness no matter what!
Yanwang: Just pay ten thousand merit points per child to get them a good reincarnation! In total, you will need to pay four hundred and eighty thousand for forty-eight children! This is not a small number! You have to put some serious consideration into it!
Four hundred and eighty thousand?!
Chen Xiaobei took a deep breath. He did not expect that Yanwang would ask for so much merit points from him. Considering that he had to use a long time to accumulate five hundred and eighty thousand merit points, everything would be back to square one if he agreed to pay Yanwang.
For sure, Chen Xiaobei did hesitate for a while. However, when he saw their innocent faces and thought about the rough journey that they been through, it was actually not that difficult to make the decision.
Chen Xiaobei: I will pay you the merit points first! Wait for me to wash off their talisman inscription. Then, you can proceed to help them with reincarnation.
Ding!
[Merit points are being spent. You have been downgraded to Philanthropist the Second!]
Ding!
[Your current merit points is 100,000. You still need another 200,000 merit points to proceed to the next level! (Charm: 10,000. Luck: 10,000)!]
Yanwang: Damn! You are crazy! You just sacrifice a huge chunk of your merit points for a group of children that have nothing to do with you! I’m impressed!
Chen Xiaobei: Alright. You can go back to your guest. I’m going to look for Zhu Bajie!
Upon closing the Yanwang’s chat box, Chen Xiaobei sent a message to Zhu Bajie immediately. Seemingly, Zhu Bajie had a lot of time in his hand. He replied Chen Xiaobei’s message within seconds.
Zhu Bajie: Brother Xiaobei. What’s up?
Chen Xiaobei: I want to ask some Divine River Spiritual Water from you. It shouldn’t be a difficult task for you since you are the one that manages the Divine River!
Zhu Bajie: That is actually not right! Though I’m the one that controls the Divine River, it is still the asset of heaven! The Jade Emperor will put the blame on me if I lose some of it!
Chen Xiaobei: Cut the crap! Tell me what you want! Now! 😒
Zhu Bajie: Haha! Brother Xiaobei knows me well! I want… Hehehehe…
Chapter 619: Will Not Change Forever
Chen Xiaobei: What do you mean by ‘hehehe’?! Speak your mind! 😓
Zhu Bajie: Are you really asking me? As our group leader, you have not sent us good stuff for a very long time! 😒
Chen Xiaobei: Psst! This is it? Tell me! What kind of good stuff do you want? I will definitely satisfy your demand!
Zhu Bajie: Haha! I always know that my group leader is an awesome guy! I want a picture of a blonde lady with blue eyes! She has to be Japanese! Big boobs and ass! Completely nude! Quick! Quick! Quick! 😍
What a lecherous pig…
Feeling disgusted, Chen Xiaobei felt like laughing out loud. He then used his cell phone to access a pornographic website and copied a few sensuous naked lady pictures. Immediately, he sent it to Zhu Bajie.
Zhu Bajie: Damn! This is some good stuff! 😍 The best group leader ever! Awesome! Wild! You deserve thirty-two likes! Wahahaha…
Chen Xiaobei: 😐 Enjoy them slowly! Send me the Divine River Spiritual Water now! It’s urgent!
Zhu Bajie: No problem! Let me get it now! Just stay there and wait for my package! 😆
After a while, Chen Xiaobei’s cell phone rang. A big Red Envelope could be seen on his cell phone’s screen.
Let me snatch it!
Tapping his finger on the screen, he snatched the Red Envelope.
Ding!
[Congratulation! You have snatched a Red Envelope from Zhu Bajie! You have received a bottle of Divine River Spiritual Water (three hundred pounds). It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]
Damn! Zhu Bajie is so generous this time! Three hundred pounds of Divine River Spiritual Water?
After putting some thought into it, Chen Xiaobei figured out his thought process.
I’m pretty sure that he’s worried that I would stop sending him good stuff like that! That was why he sent me so much Divine River Spiritual Water! He wanted to please me! With that being said, the amount of spiritual water that I received from is definitely more than enough!
Immediately, Chen Xiaobei retrieved it from his treasure chest. All the spiritual water was stored inside a white china bottle. Its size was similar to a mineral water bottle. A spiritual vibe could be felt from it – it was a low-level magical item. That was why it could store three hundred pounds worth of Divine River Spiritual Water!
Wow! Big brother! Are you a magician? How did you make this bottle appear out of nowhere?
All the children were mystified.
I’m not a magician. I’m a deity!
Promptly, Chen Xiaobei opened the bottle. A sense of clarity and purity emanated from the spiritual water. The magical element of the spiritual water made everyone felt like they were sitting in the water – the coolness and warmness from it was good enough to bring comfort to everyone.
Starting with the first body, Chen Xiaobei poured the spiritual water that he just received on it. Seconds later, something miraculous happened! The crimson talisman inscription was washed away – making the body looked like the person just passed away not too long ago.
Cleanse!
Purify!
This was the magical effect of the Divine River Spiritual Water! The curse planted on the body was removed as they grayish-black aura was washed away!
My… My curse is gone! Oh god… I can feel the realm of the underworld summoning me… My friends! I’m going to enter the underworld! I’m finally free!
Feeling excited, the owner of the corpse was flying around Chen Xiaobei.
Big brother! You are my savior! Thank you so much… I will definitely repay your kindness when I live my second life!
I don’t expect anything from you. Go in peace. I wish a safe and peaceful second life for you. Enjoy your freedom!
Big brother… Thank you so much…
Soon, the kid’s spirit disappeared into the thin air with a smile on his face. Upon witnessing the magical scene, the rest of the kids were left in a state of euphoria.
This is so awesome! Big brother right here really is a deity! We can finally be saved! We can finally have our long-awaited freedom!
For sure, Chen Xiaobei would never disappoint them. He then continued to cleanse their bodies one by one with the spiritual water. A few hours later, every single child had traveled to the underworld.
Initially, Chen Xiaobei wanted to ask the children to help with getting rid of the voodoo poison from the officers of Six Doors. Now that he had the Divine River Spiritual Water with him, he did not need their help anymore. Knowing that the spiritual water could wash away evil curses, using it to get rid of voodoo poison should be even easier.
Pheww… Everything is finally done! Since Yanwang had taken my merit points, he will definitely make sure their reincarnation goes smoothly. I don’t think I need to worry about it anymore.
Now, I need to look for the source of spiritual Qi! I have to regain my losses since I spent so much merit points on them!
Immediately. Chen Xiaobei activated his Golden Gaze Fiery Eyes to observe his surroundings. Floor and walls around him became transparent. Soon, Chen Xiaobei spotted something secretive behind the wall that was far from him.
That’s it!
Through Golden Gaze Fiery Eyes, Chen Xiaobei could clearly see that there was a stair that allowed him to travel underground behind the wall. The special thing about it was there were three paper talismans stuck at the back of the wall to hide the spiritual Qi. Maybe that was why Xiangxi Phantom Lord could not find the source of spiritual Qi after staying here for around ten years.
POM!
Without any hesitation, Chen Xiaobei landed his fist on the wall. Though the wall was thick, it still could not withstand the strength of his fist.
Rumble
Followed by the paper talismans being torn down, a stream of concentrated spiritual Qi came rushing at Chen Xiaobei like a fountain!
Damn! Such concentrated spiritual Qi! Just by standing at the stairs, I could feel that the spiritual Qi is stronger than the spiritual Qi at Golden Dragon Temple’s forbidden ground. I’m afraid the spiritual Qi is going to become more concentrated once I walk further down!
Immediately, Chen Xiaobei rushed down the stairs after he put some thought into it. Spiritual Qi was equivalent to combat power. That was the thing that he wanted badly all the time. With a great boost to his combat power, Chen Xiaobei would be able to go for an all-out war with Zhuang and Yap Family and travel to Japan to deal with his enemies.
His long-term goal was Prime of Tongtian’s expectations of him. Whether he could achieve something great during the catastrophic events or became the key person during the event, combat power was the key factor here. Since the beginning of time, strength was always the iron rule of this universe. With absolute strength, one could definitely be on top of the world. This was the rule that would never change until the end of the world.
I must acquire greater strength! All the spiritual Qi here belongs to me alone!
Chapter 620: New Member Coming into the Group
After running down several thousand flights of stairs, the scene was different when Chen Xiaobei reached the secret spot right at the bottom. If the Palace of the Living Dead was similar to hell, this place was comparable to heaven! The ceiling, walls, and floor of the cave were filled with luminous minerals – like stars in the sky. The spiritual Qi was so concentrated that it turned into fog circling the cave. Looking up at the cave ceiling, it was like a starry night sky with clouds. It was absolutely breathtaking. Upon inhaling the pure spiritual Qi, Chen Xiaobei felt joy being poured into his body; all his stress replaced by relaxation. It was like he was jumping on a cloud like a deity.
What is that?!
It was true that this place was like heaven. However, Chen Xiaobei was drawn to something more interesting. There was a meter tall stone platform stood in the middle of this cave. On top of it placed a gorgeous green jade gourd.
Is… Is this the legendary Dragon Breed Chalcedony?!
The term Dragon Breed referred to the rarity of the gemstone. Normally, one could find Ice Breed, Glutinous Breed, Glass Breed, Confederate Rose Breed, and others. For Dragon Breed, it was considered the rarest and most expensive gemstone! When it came to gemstones, Chen Xiaobei was actually an experienced expert. He used to sell four hundred million worth of jade sculptures and had seen the blood jade coffin of Emperor Yan! However, all those jade stones that he came across before could never compare with this green jade gourd!
That type of green could be classified as emperor green. The item was crystal clear and flawless as well. Upon walking closer to it, he could feel the elements of earth and water exuding from it. Though the design of the gourd was ordinary, the Qi surrounding it had a grand vibe. It was as if this item belonged to the heavenly realm and ordinary people did not possess the right to lay their hands on it.
This is not an ordinary jade sculpture!
Immediately, Chen Xiaobei strode towards it. He had to check it out since his curiosity was completely triggered. Upon swinging his hands, all the fog liked spiritual Qi was gone. He was awestruck as he walked closer to the jade sculpture.
Oh my god… So much spiritual Qi… And, all that spiritual Qi coming from this green jade gourd
After a more thorough inspection, Chen Xiaobei discovered that all the spiritual Qi came from a crack of the green jade gourd. The intriguing part was the spiritual Qi around it would be absorbed by it within seconds – turning the process into an endless cycle.
If I’m not mistaken, this green jade gourd should be an item that is purposely used to store spiritual Qi! The crack is causing all the spiritual Qi to leak out from it! With that being said, I will be able to use this item to absorb all the spiritual Qi in this cave after I fix it! Right! That must be it! I have to figure out some way to fix it!
Promptly, Chen Xiaobei took out his cell phone and took a picture of it. He then sent it to his brotherhood group to ask about the way to fix it. No matter what, he had to fix it. If not, he would have to stay here to use up all the spiritual Qi. In other words, he would have to stay there for a long time just to absorb all of it.
Knowing this place was the Xiangxi Phantom Lord’s nest, many government departments would definitely come to this place to do their investigation. By that time, there was a high chance that Chen Xiaobei would be kicked out of this place. One should know that spiritual Qi was the thing that he dreamt of for the longest time possible.
After going through all the killing and encountering this golden opportunity, Chen Xiaobei would definitely be extremely frustrated if someone took this piece of treasure away from him.
Ding!
Soon, someone replied Chen Xiaobei’s question.
Chang’e: This gourd doesn’t look like an ordinary item. Mist probably, this is a Spiritual Item! It can be quite troublesome if you want to repair it.
Chen Xiaobei: Spiritual Item? What is the difference between a Spiritual Item and Magical Item?
Xiao Tianquan: A Magical Item is the lowest tier. Normally, they possess a certain amount of magical power. Anything above nine stars is a Spiritual Item!
Chen Xiaobei: Now I remember! The Green Jade Cauldron and Maliang Divine Pen are Spiritual Items!
Chang’e: That’s right! A Spiritual Item is considered as high tier item. I’m afraid the Transmogrifying Flame that I gave you will not be any help. You have to use a higher-level Enigmatic Fire with high tier material to fix it!
Chen Xiaobei: I… I don’t think it’s possible! I do not have any extra time to spare!
Monkey King: You have to ask Lord Heavenly Smith if you are in a hurry. He is an expert in repairing and crafting! And, he has the Enigmatic Fire and the material needed to fix the item with him. Asking him to help you is definitely faster than repairing it yourself!
Chen Xiaobei: Alright. I’m going to ask him now!
Immediately, Chen Xiaobei closed the chat group and sent the picture to the Red Envelope Group.
Chen Xiaobei: @Lord Heavenly Smith, can you please take a look at this Spiritual Item? Do you think you can fix it? 😖
Lord Heavenly Smith: God Chen, I can fix it but you need to pay me some merit points!
Chen Xiaobei: Alright. How much?
No matter how much it cost, Chen Xiaobei was more than willing to pay for the repairs. However, he did not expect to receive a frustrating reply from Lord Heavenly Smith.
Lord Heavenly Smith: Fees for repairing costs thirty-three thousand merit points! The cost of the material is one hundred thousand merit points!
Chen Xiaobei: What?! That’s too expensive!
Earlier, Chen Xiaobei just paid four hundred and eighty-three thousand merit points to Yanwang. He only had one hundred thousand merit points left with him.
Chen Xiaobei: Can it be cheaper?
Jiang Ziya: Of course not! Lord Heavenly Smith is one of the high ranked deities in heaven. The Enigmatic Fire, Enigmatic Cauldron and materials that he uses are heavenly items! Hence, the price is fixed! There’s no way that you can make him lower the price!
Shit! I made a mistake! I have forgotten that Jiang Ziya is in the group as well! There’s no way that I can make him lower down the price if he continues to mess with me!
Lei Zhenzi: Hehe… Shishu Xiaobei, I thought that you are a tough guy? As the disciple of the Prime of Tongtian, you can’t even come up with such a small amount of merit points?
Jiang Ziya: Shidi Xiaobei, you just won two hundred thousand merit point from me a few days ago. Did you spend all of it in one go? This is not possible, right?
Lei Zhenzi: Shishu Xiaobei! You have the merit points with you! Why are you trying to bargain with Lord Heavenly Smith? What a stingy man! The Prime of Tongtian is a very generous deity! Now, look at you! You are embarrassing him!
Looking at the messages that he received, Chen Xiaobei was left in frustration but there was nothing he could say about it. Initially, he possessed five hundred and eighty thousand merit points, it was more than enough to repair that green jade gourd. However, he was not lacking in merit points – turning him into a laughing stock in Lei Zhenzi’s and Jiang Ziya’s presence. Other than that, his luck and charm had dropped tremendously. Making a mistake like this had everything to do with his luck and charm.
Normally, good things always come to good people! Why is it not happening to me?
Ding!
Suddenly, a system message showed that someone new had just joined the Red Envelope Group. Immediately, the silent members of the group finally spoke up.
