My Arms Can Turn into Blades-Chapter 301 - 201: Heretic! (Part 3)

Screech——

The SUV came to a sudden stop.

Wu You was forced to lean forward, swallowing back his words.

After a wild ride, they had reached their destination.

"Get out."

Ji Xin directly flung open the car door.

Next to her, Shan Li lifted the wheelchair, helping her out of the vehicle.

Quickly.

Everyone inside the car exited, standing in the rain.

Ji Xin, sitting in the wheelchair, smoothed the hair sticking to her cheek with rainwater, then looked towards Xia Panqiu.

Xia Panqiu gently shook her small head, flicked her hair, then raised the rope, placing it around her neck.

"Exchange!"

She shouted without hesitation.

But nothing happened.

She didn't disappear.

Chen Lusi didn't appear either.

Tang Language, Mount Tai, Yu Zhou, and Luo Mountain remained silent, though prepared, still somewhat disappointed.

"Why didn't it work..."

Xia Panqiu stood there, looking at the rope around her neck, seemingly incredulous.

Immediately.

She shouted 'exchange' again.

But still, nothing happened.

Unbelieving, she shouted several more times.

But it truly didn't work.

"...Impossible."

Xia Panqiu bit her glossy red lips hard, her voice small, seemingly tinged with a sob.

Tang Language realized something, hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and gently hugged Xia Panqiu, whispering comfort to her.

"It seems the plan to prioritize the safety of important personnel isn't feasible."

Elsewhere.

Ji Xin appeared unsurprised, maintaining a cold expression, and concluded definitively.

And as she spoke...

"Woo——"

Suddenly.

A sharp roar, of uncertain origin, pierced the air.

The roar reverberated, as sharp as a blade, making everyone uncomfortable.

The Celestial Strategies present all furrowed their brows.

But it wasn't over yet.

Simultaneously with the roar.

Not far away.

Right before Ji Xin and the others, an illusionary city wall appeared suddenly... The arrow towers, gates, and ramparts on the wall faintly visible through the rain.

"..."

Everyone froze at the sight.

Ji Xin looked directly at Luo Mountain, asking: "A scene reflected from the Anomaly Realm?"

"Possible."

Luo Mountain swallowed hard, nodding with difficulty.

"Look, there are more in other places."

Suddenly, Yu Zhou spoke as he scanned the distance.

Ji Xin followed his gaze and saw not just ahead, but even more grandiose 'mirages' farther away.

...Four palace complexes in total.

"..."

Ji Xin gazed at the phantom buildings seemingly intertwined with reality in the rain, pondered briefly, then spoke: "Initiate 'Demon Slayer' now!"

Mount Tai snapped back to reality: "Where to initiate it?"

Ji Xin declared decisively: "Right here!"

"..."

"Heresy——"

The peculiar chorus of thousands reverberated.

Chen Lusi didn't turn back but directly launched the First Line.

As soon as he vanished.

The pure white beast landed where he had just stood, its massive body crashing down, sending the ankle-high accumulation of water splashing up, transforming into a 'great wave' sweeping all around.

The pure white beast stood at the center, glaring fiercely at Chen Lusi, who kept dodging, its eyes full of rage.

At some point.

Its previously pristine white fur had been stained with inky black rainwater, sullied once more.

However.

Chen Lusi didn't notice, breathing lightly, he didn't look back, and after confirming his direction slightly, continued onward.

Honestly.

He wasn't sure where he was at now.

That wasn't important anymore.

The pressing concern was: how to deal with the monstrous figure behind him.

Dismantling?

The entity hadn't used any technique, nor could he sense any external Spirit right now.

Invisible Blade?

That same issue, he couldn't sense any external Spirit currently, and the previous explosion Stone tactic used in the Monkey Anomaly Realm was unrealistic because he only had one Stone.

Slashing?

Probably wouldn't harm it, and he hadn't seen any lines just now.

Using Illusion Soul to imitate someone's Authority?

Who to imitate was uncertain.

Even if mimicry worked...the Spirit within him wouldn't sustain for long.

So, facing such a massive beast, it seemed the only option left was the Celestial Punishment Weapon.

But the problem was...

He only had a Celestial Punishment Pistol now.

Not the type with built-in Stone.

Impossible to inflict significant damage.

And that was already bad enough.

But there was worse news...

Realizing this.

Chen Lusi slowly halted, then exhaled softly, smoothing water off his ponytail, as he glanced down at his feet.

The rain continued falling.

Ground water levels nearly reaching his knees now.

If he couldn't resolve the massive beast in a short time...did it mean everyone would be drowned in this flood?

Including himself?

...Don't let it drag him under the surface.

Was that what it meant?
