Damn it! Let's smash the darkness together!-Chapter 1308 - 163: King of Hell
They caught up with the fleeing Evil Spirits and easily dissolved them, "redeeming" them amidst the harrowing screams, pulling them back and incorporating them into the giant wheel.
The flames blazed hotter, the chanting grew louder, and the speed of the giant wheel increased! ๐ฏ๐ป๐๐๐๐ฎ๐๐ท๐๐ฟ๐๐.๐๐ธ๐ข
"What the hell is this?"
Xu Shuโs pupils contracted suddenly, his hair stood on end, and without another word, he turned in the opposite direction and joined the fleeing army, using his own strength to leave the others in the dust, quickly catching up with the main group.
Now he finally understood the reason behind the riot of the underground creatures; it was all about escaping for their lives!
Meanwhile, a flash of insight struck Xu Shuโs mind, and he suddenly realized something.
Previously, when they first met Yan Huoxing and Lu Bingweiโs remnant team, they mentioned that the reason they had lost members and become a remnant was due to something called the "Fire Blade Giant Wheel". (Note 1: Chapter 125 of this volume)
Xu Shu had thought before, what a strange name for a monster, and the encounter was utterly baffling.
In this Night Parade of Hundred Demons, what kind of monster could possibly reduce a team like Lu Bingweiโs, Zhang Runzhiโs, Yan Huoxingโs, where even the weakest members were almost equivalent to the Third Rank Late Stage, to a remnant?
It seemed entirely impossible!
This place wasnโt Death Report Ridge, just an ordinary "large relic". As long as you didnโt rashly enter any secret realms, the strongest enemy you could encounter would only be at the Third Order Peak Perfection.
Even after he was betrayed by Zhang Runzhi, Xu Shu still believed that the Fire Blade Giant Wheel was a trap set by the Red Emperor Army.
Now it seems, on this point, he had unjustly blamed the Red Emperor Army.
The "Fire Blade Giant Wheel" truly was a surprise, essentially a natural disaster in this area, which appeared to have become sentient!
Given its terrifying manifestation, it was absolutely not something Yan Hui and his group could have conjured.
Instead, judging by its levels and those obviously related Buddhist scriptures, this thing was likely connected to the "Ksitigarbha" that once appeared in Japan!
"Damn it, is this the terror of a divine existence? Even though it isnโt here, just some traces it left behind can create a death trap for mid-sequence Transcendents?"
"But why do I feel that back in the day, I, the Dragon God, wasnโt this strong... Even adding Zhu Wu, we seemed slightly inferior, was Ksitigarbha really this strong? Then how did the Death God take him down?"
At this moment, Xu Shu mocked while feeling extremely fortunate.
Good thing he hadnโt rashly explored the ancient temple just now!
Otherwise, he might truly have perished here today.
But for now, because it wasnโt too close, the incident gave him enough reaction time to escape.
Thump, thump, thump! Thump, thump, thump!
In this critical moment of danger, Xu Shu didnโt forget to smear some of his blood onto the mermaid, making it the target to pursue, and using "Kua Fu Chasing the Sun" to escape.
โ"Kua Fu Chasing the Sun" emphasizes pursuit; when Xu Shu chases a target carrying his blood or bodily fluids, his speed and stamina will surge.
Normally, if someone possessed this divine skill, they would choose a person running ahead of them as the target, but Xu Shu was different, he chose to pursue the mermaid.
This effect is akin to dangling an apple before a donkey to make it run, almost like a perpetual motion machine, a brilliant application of the "Kua Fu Chasing the Sun" technique, conceived only by a talent like Xu Shu.
[Wow, truly amazing, what currently stands before everyone is Xu Longxiangโs most formidable form: Xu Pao Pao!]
[Your actions are very similar to the paths some ancient beings took when they started small, it seems youโve taken another step toward becoming a deity, quack!]
The narrator of the Tai Chu volume continued with its teasing, though this time it seemed to acquire some information, as it wasnโt just babbling, showing more subtitles:
[The sad thing is, you stumbled upon a divine-level disaster within the large relic: the Rebirth Giant Wheel!]
[For your understanding, the Tai Chu volume offers further explanation: for relics of this level, โdisasterโ is the only existence that can unleash its power beyond the limits of this world without constraint.]
[Under the immense sound of the Brahma voices, the Rebirth Giant Wheel devoured one soul after another, in case you didnโt understand this translation, luckily the Tai Chu volume translated it for you, it says: "Until Hell is empty, I vow not to become a Buddha; only when all beings are saved will I attain enlightenment!"]
"It really is Him!"
Seeing the familiar words, Xu Shu nearly coughed up blood.
He was right, after all, the giant wheel truly was something Ksitigarbha left behind!
This old monk, not only did he make Xu Shu carelessly lose his mother, but the things left in this relic also seemed filled with lethal traps, harmful to the unwary!
But then again, why hadnโt he heard Xie Xiaochan and the others mention anything about divine-level disasters?
Did they forget to tell him, or perhaps they didnโt know either, only aware of the wheelโs existence, but not understanding its logic?
Intuition told Xu Shu, the latter was more likely.
Never mind, thereโs no time to think about all this now, escaping is whatโs important, running will solve everything...
Xu Shu thought to himself silently, his pace quickening, but he soon realized something was amiss.
That "Rebirth Giant Wheel" was clearly still reaping the surrounding Evil Spirits, and the latest batch it took was even over ten kilometers away from Xu Shu. The visible distance seemed to be gradually increasing.
