Damn it! Let's smash the darkness together!-Chapter 1290 - 157: Revisiting Old Haunts and Slaying Old Acquaintances—You Are the True Challengers
Xu Shu: "..."
This main god is a complete nutcase, is he an attention seeker? Playing out his own little drama here, and his voice is like one of those annoying female little devils~
[You’re quietly complaining in your heart, talking bad about others behind their backs isn’t a good habit. I suggest you shout toward the sky and say you want to curse him.] Tai Chu Volume suggested.
"I’d rather not."
Xu Shu stood up unfazed.
At the moment, under the watchful eyes of the "shadows," another gigantic light-made carriage traveled along an invisible starry track, being transported over from a honeycomb compartment far away.
Boom!
The cable car crashed to the ground like a meteor, leaving a rather exaggerated crater.
Xu Shu didn’t attack proactively, instead remaining on high alert.
Clack! Clatter!
After the carriage opened, a guy with a big light bulb on his head slowly emerged from the smog-filled bottom of the crater.
His figure was hard to discern, and his footsteps made a strange "dong dong dong~ zing~ dong dong dong~" rhythm that was eerily oppressive.
"Ho, this one feels formidable, is this for increasing my challenge?"
Xu Shu squinted and glanced at Tai Chu Volume.
[Not even having time to mourn for the navel-baring sister who passed, he rushed to the battlefield at first notice. Just recently breaking through from the Second Order Peak Perfection, his strength is not weaker than some established third-tier contenders. Although he hasn’t crossed paths with you yet, he once participated in hunts for you and possesses mysterious tracking skills, it’s the male "Death God Agent," Ogamoto Ichiro!]
"Hmm?"
Xu Shu reacted instantly and stood up abruptly.
Name?
Never heard of it.
Strength?
Third-stage Early Stage.
Interesting!
This kind of opponent deserves a fight with 120% of my combative spirit!
Without uttering another word, Xu Shu launched himself like a big bird, diving down.
Bam!
His speed was lightning fast, dispersing a large amount of smoke in an instant, revealing a muscular hulk over three meters tall with massive shoulders and chest.
"Hmm?"
The big guy was standing on a strange skateboard, which was making that "dong dong dong" sound.
Seeing Xu Shu suddenly appear, interrupting his ambiance, he narrowed his eyes and said in a very samurai-like manner: "Haha, you’re quite astute! You must have seen through the invisible ability of my skateboard shoes ’Empty,’ and that’s why you interrupted it, right? In that case, I shall no longer hide it. I was once part of the Guardian Court Thirteen Team..."
"Alright, enough, no need for more words!"
Before the burly man could finish, Xu Shu made a move with incredible speed.
Seeing Xu Shu circling the meteor crater, coming closer and closer, the big guy almost laughed out loud. He raised his arms in a fighting stance to protect himself and said:
"Haha, you think I’m an assassin type, so you chose close combat? You might be disappointed! Looks like you don’t know yet, I’ve trained hard for decades, my body’s toughness, even back in the day when the mountain - bam!"
The big man’s self-introduction was abruptly cut off by a huge explosion.
Xu Shu, after a multi-kilometer "Gong Gong touches the mountain" assault, hit him head-on with a powerful Iron Mountain Lean!
Under the terrifying force, a trace of astonishment first appeared in the big man’s eyes, then his entire face and body were utterly distorted.
The next moment, a wildly violent gust swept through the crater, forcibly expanding the 10-meter diameter pit to a whopping 100 meters.
"You’re not weak, too bad you’re a clown, who taught you to strike poses on the battlefield? Not as good as the navel-baring sister’s stuff. But if he fought above his rank in the second-order too, he could be considered brave, truly an exciting strong opponent."
Xu Shu walked out of the pit thoughtfully, holding three clear and bright purple Erosion Crystals: 18+18+1.
The master of the Second Arena, is dead.
However, Xu Shu didn’t let the smooth progress of two consecutive battles make him careless.
He knew the real challenges were yet to come!
As expected, along with the almost formulaic applause, fireworks, and salute to celebrate his success in challenging the second arena, the third person to arrive on the battlefield surprisingly turned out to be a Mid Third Realm expert.
This was a Female Ninja Xu Shu had seen before but had no emotional interaction with, dressed in a white tight-fitting suit, with surging green hair and black eyes, and three vertical sexy tear moles on her face, often looking like one bullied.
Her weapon was a strange blue trident, fluid and free-flowing in action.
Unfortunately, although her strength was notable and she was full of fighting spirit, she was still significantly weaker against Xu Shu.
Especially when Xu Shu, in a flash of inspiration, moved the battle to the bottom of the crater, out of everyone’s sight, the battlefield became one-sided, and the Female Ninja was completely no match for him.
After twenty rounds of fierce fighting, the Female Ninja shouted out her ultimate move "Strangle him, White Snake Princess," transforming her weapon into a giant white snake, tightly coiling around Xu Shu’s head in an attempt to strangle him.
Unfortunately, she was still one move short, ending in a crushing defeat, slain in the saddle.
And Xu Shu acquired three Erosion Crystals of the same purple quality, with the third crystal already having twelve threads.
"This is not looking good, only the third arena and already it’s up to Mid Third Realm! What about next? To challenge Qi Lixiang, I have to fight through to the Fifth Arena!"
Xu Shu’s expression grew serious as he wiped the dripping wet three crystals against himself.
But there’s truth in it, high risk comes with high rewards. Though there’s yet to appear Evil Spirits with suffix traits among the arena lords, they are of immaculate quality.
Aside from anything else, this is quite a hefty income!
Xu Shu didn’t have much time to worry, soon entering his fourth challenge of the day.
The opponent appearing this time, took him slightly by surprise.
The opponent was the one who had captured the wandering Arthur and Christina, leading them to the Soul Realm.
"You’re here too?" Xu Shu said in a deep voice, looking at the white-haired, white-eyed man engulfed in frost.
"You know me?"
The Frost Man was no longer lively and cheerful as before, but cold and somber as water.
After a moment’s silence, he shook his head and sighed: "To seek a glimmer of survival, I must fight. Though I don’t know who you are, once you enter this gate, you become an opponent! Let’s settle it today, whether in strength or life and death."
"Frost Heaven—open!" The man raised the Sword Orb, and cold air engulfed everywhere, nearly freezing the entire battlefield.+
"Then let’s go!"
Seeing this, Xu Shu didn’t waste words, with a burst of golden light, lunging forward like a crab.
Man and ghost fought furiously, clashing in every corner of the duel field, debris, and stone scattered everywhere, nearly grinding down the surrounding white stone walls.
Half an hour later......
"Third Rank Late Stage, not weak! Rest in peace."
Xu Shu’s figure shook, using "Killer Intent into Flame" to shatter the ice and simultaneously incinerate his opponent into ashes, giving him a send-off.
"Where there are people, there is Jianghu, and with Jianghu comes enmity and killing. I can’t escape, and neither can you!" The Frost Man had no regrets, closing his eyes and turning to ashes.
