The rising sun shatters the darkness!

Chapter 474 No One Survives (asking for monthly ticket)

In the duel arena in the post-war ruins, a man and a woman, a human and a ghost, stared at each other from a distance.

Does Xu Shu know this woman?
Of course I know him, we have a very close relationship.

Coincidentally, this woman was prominently present at the previous "Arthur Job Fair" and demonstrated considerable capital - as a captain-level figure with E-level strength, she had plenty of skills and means, which greatly won Xu Shu's favor.

It's just that at that time, Xu Shu seemed to be a little embarrassed by her cheap mother's face. She couldn't let go and was embarrassed to show too lustful, so she was still one step behind and lost to another cold-faced ambitious female devil, Jing Xiaohua.

If not for this, this woman would definitely be the contract candidate with a very high chance of winning!
So her name is...Bai what's that?

Xu Shu suddenly fell into deep thought.

[Wait, you can even forget this, are you still human? The other person saved you, what a chilling man! ]

[But it seems that you really didn't mean it. Maybe there were too many people at the time and you only remembered the other party's number. Taichujuan decided to show mercy and remind you of the code name you gave her: aE86. ]

[Friendly reminder, although you did not fall in love with her back then, she still let you go during your escape and did not deliberately stop you. This was obviously because of your other companion Jing Xiaohua.]

"Oh~ It's her!" Xu Shu suddenly realized.

This number was temporarily created by him for the convenience of memorization and is very practical.

Among them, E stands for strength and capital, and 86 is the unit of length in cm. As for "a", it is a counting unit, meaning "piece" or "position". Together, it means "a remarkable woman with 86E".

With the hint of the number, the other party's identity, like her big orange, is naturally obvious.

It's Bai Jie! Her name is Kuchiki Bai Jie!

He is a well-known figure in the entire soul world. He is powerful and a captain-level figure.

As the saying goes, old friends are jealous of each other when they meet, but facing such a touching and beautiful young woman, Xu Shu couldn't help but sigh.

Because this young woman, Bai Jie, not only had an expression of arrogance, disdain and world-weariness on her face, but her eyes also revealed extreme resentment and murderous intent towards him.

Arrogance and world-weariness are just personalities, there's nothing much to say about it.

The murderous intention is understandable, after all, he is blocking the other party's way.

Xu Shu is not a fool, so he understood what the sisters who just exposed their belly buttons and the words said by the frost man and others, such as escaping from the cage and seeking a chance of survival, didn't he?

It is obvious that the monsters in this hive did not voluntarily play the ranking match here, but were trapped in this secret realm!
The bargaining chip they use to leave is to continue to fight a Gu-raising-style battle.

If you win and reach a certain "score", there should be hope that the "Cricket Fighting God" will allow you to leave.

Lost?

Then you die.

Let’s talk about this for now.

The only thing Xu Shu couldn't understand was the resentment in Bai Jie's eyes.

Could it be that she recognized Arthur? But I didn't abandon her in the beginning, so what is there to resent? It's puzzling...

Xu Shu suddenly had an idea and secretly opened a gap in the lace underwear, revealing a corner of Arthur's golden head.

However, the strange thing is that Bai Jie just frowned slightly, and did not show any further reaction such as "Why are you here?", and still maintained his original resentful attitude with a squinting look.

"Tsk, it seems that she can't recognize Arthur? Or is a head alone not enough? It seems that this trick is useless..."

Xu Shu frowned, silently put Arthur's head away, and quickly thought about how to defeat the enemy.

For him, an evil spirit without a physical body like Bai Jie is actually more difficult to deal with than the Corpse King.

He is a family man who knows his own business. Without the mermaid present, he actually lacks direct means to deal with evil spirits. He is not as good as the "Ghost Three Professionals" who can naturally defeat the opponent, unless there is a special situation.

Perhaps the luminescence of the title 'Light Chaser' can be tried, which is equivalent to simulating the effect of direct sunlight to fight against evil spirits.

But this is not a good choice either.

On the one hand, I was wearing the "Sit-Ups" and if I switched, I couldn't change it back within twelve hours; on the other hand, the "Light Chaser" actually had limited control over the evil spirits...

"How to do it?"

Xu Shu's mind was racing with thoughts. He originally wanted to think about it. This is called taking steady steps.

However, when he took a quick glance, he saw several balls of light gathered in a very regular arrangement at the top of the sky, and a jumping countdown appeared: 00:59::59!

Obviously, this fifth qualifying challenge also has a time limit.

One hour limit.

If you can't win, you lose.

And if you can't finish the fight, you'll be considered a loser!

"Forget it, let's give it a try."

Xu Shu took a deep breath, raised his fist and punched Bai Jie in the face without saying a word.

Boom!

The powerful fist wind had not yet landed on the ground, but just by passing through, it caused two vortexes of air to appear in the air that were constantly rotating and moving forward. The ground looked like it was plowed by an excavator, with terrifying power.

"Ok?"

Faced with such unreasonable and brutal collision, the beautiful young woman with a worried look on her face first hummed in disgust, then stretched out her hand to fight back.

However, after observing for a while, she seemed to have discovered something and suddenly let go of her hand. She just stood there motionless, allowing Xu Shu to hit her like a rocket.

Whoosh!
Xu Shu was like a rocket, smashing Bai Jie into pieces with one blow, but he also broke the huge rock behind her, causing a cloud of dust and dirt to rise dozens of meters high, spreading forward.

This is the power of a "Dragon Elephant" attack, comparable to a combination of a super typhoon and a strong earthquake!

Unfortunately, facing such a violent attack, Bai Jie's body shook and recovered to its original state without any harm.

As the "Yin King", she has no entity in the traditional sense and is not afraid of this kind of simple physical collision!

Not only that, she also gently pressed a palm on Xu Shu's back, and the cold and gloomy aura, like a maggot attached to the bone, immediately invaded Xu Shu's body. This was the natural killing power of the Yin God on the living, corroding the flesh and blood, depriving the vitality!
Xu Shu's eyes narrowed, but he didn't feel much hurt.

He is not an ordinary living person, but a special extraordinary being with the term "Yin God".

Although this cannot give him the same direct suppression of evil spirits as the "Three Ghost Families", it can also greatly reduce the damage from evil spirits.

After all, Xu Shu himself also has the ability of "flesh erosion"! He has resistance to abilities of the same attribute!
He shuddered, shook off the cold aura on his body, braked like an excavator, turned around and continued to rush towards Bai Jie, launching another round of collision.

This time, he was filled with a burning rage to kill!

Whoosh whoosh!
For a moment, Xu Shu was like a bouncing ball, blasting from one side of the duel arena to the other, then turning around and attacking again from the other side.

The huge rockets flying back and forth plowed the duel field into huge gullies.

During this period, Bai Jie always stood in the same place without making any major counterattack, as if he was waiting leisurely for Xu Shu to make his move.

"Isn't this possible..." Xu Shu frowned.

As a peak third-order Yin King, he found that Bai Jie was much more difficult to deal with than the average Yin King. He couldn't even effectively kill him through conventional means.

Of course, thanks to his high-speed movement, Bai Jie was also unable to do anything to him. All kinds of means were used on Xu Shu, half of which were ineffective and the other half could not break his defense.

“It’s almost time to try that trick…” Xu Shu glanced at the small golden sun-chasing spear he had already made, but was in no hurry to use it.

The time is not right, we have to find a way to make the other party let down their guard!
At this moment, after a stalemate of several minutes, the mature woman in mourning clothes and with her hair in a ponytail suddenly took further action.

"Haha, I've seen through you. You actually have no spiritual pressure, but only a strong body of flesh and blood! Well, everything ends here!"

She spoke arrogantly with a face full of resentment, reached out and unbuttoned the bottom buttons of her mourning dress, lifted a small corner, stretched slowly, revealing an extremely long weapon that she kept close to her body.

This is a pink sword, hidden in the shape of an "oio" at the bottom of a high mountain valley.

At this moment, Bai Jie stretched out her arm, and the knife slid down and fell into the palm of her hand.

Xu Shu's eyes focused. This is a special sealed object, a special weapon with a high-level guardian spirit inside, called "Senbonzakura"!
"Unseal the scattered Senbonzakura!"

Bai Jie looked at Xu Shu with profound eyes, sighed deeply and chanted a spell.

Her eyes were calm, but her hands tightly grasped the sword and she exerted all her strength.

Buzz!
The blade resonated at an ultra-high speed that was undetectable to the naked eye. At the same time, a large number of cherry blossoms drifted away, covering the entire duel arena like thick fog, enveloping Xu Shu.

The sharp cherry blossom petals immediately cut the ground apart. It was an extremely powerful covering blow that made Xu Shu's whole body dazzle with golden light and sparks, which continuously eroded his "Jingwei Filling the Sea" shield.

It is worth mentioning that the thick fog is also covered with a lot of dust, completely blocking all directions.

Xu Shu had no way to avoid it, so he could only stop, draw out his shield with his backhand, and think about whether to use "Blood Sky" to evade it.

However, the next second, as soon as a little dust touched it, the originally indestructible iron wall was instantly penetrated, and even Xu Shu's skin seemed to be corroded, and a dissolved wound appeared!

"Ah!"

At the same time, tears and snot flowed out of Xu Shu's eyes, nose and other parts. His heart was shrouded in a shadow, and he felt extremely sad and sorrowful. He wished he could end his life.

Such abnormal emotional changes certainly could not escape Xu Shu's attention.

"Hiss! Such a fierce power, and such a familiar ability... Wait, could this be..."

Xu Shu was startled. The Taichu Scroll beside him had already given a hint:

[Gua! You guessed it right! The one who appears in front of you and surrounds you is none other than "The Ashes of Sorrow"! ] [It's confirmed, there is no doubt about it. This young lady Bai Jie is not an ordinary Yin God, but a Yin God with a special seven emotions suffix.]

[She is the third-level Yin God Ai! ]

"???"

Xu Shu's eyes first fixed, then a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Hehehe, so it's the Seven Emotions Yin God, then I won't be polite! Narrow-sleeved Guanyin, let's go!"

He took off the small jade Buddha from his waist, loosened his belt, and with a "wearing nine and wearing one" move, he crossed the blocked space filled with ash and appeared behind Bai Jie.

[Good fellow, I know from the first glance that you are up to no good! ]

[Now the young lady Bai Jie is going to suffer at your hands... But can you really get what you want? ]

[I saw you flash a cold light first, and then your gun shot out like a dragon, and you were about to ruthlessly assault the beautiful young woman who you failed to woo back then.]

【But you missed! 】

[Bai Jie's body shattered and then reassembled. You passed through the air without even touching a corner of her clothes!]

[Oops, the enemy saw through your trick, changed from real to virtual, dodged in time, and your attack missed! ]

"What do you want to do, you perverted living being?!"

Amid the rolling cherry blossoms and ashes, Bai Jie was extremely angry and humiliated. He glared at Xu Shu fiercely, avoiding his gaze below the waist, and said with disgust, "I used to respect you as a strong man, but now it seems that you are just a despicable beast. In this case, I don't need to leave your body intact. Die!"

She spoke angry words, tears of resentment were on her face, and a knife flashed in her hand.

boom!
Bai Jie saw Xu Shu's flaw and released more and denser "Ashes of Sorrow", which instantly enveloped every corner of the duel arena.

She has been forbearing all the time. If she doesn't take action, it's fine. But once she takes action, it's a fatal blow. She has extremely high attainments in combat.

Xu Shu could hardly see, let alone escape.

Even if one activates "Wear Nine and Step One" at this moment, the place where one lands will definitely be all ashes, and transforming into "Blood Sky" will not be able to resist the erosion of the ashes.

[Gah, you're dead now! For a moment, you were overwhelmed with grief, and all the past flashed before your eyes: the anger and resentment when your beloved senior turned to someone else...]

"Turn off your revolving lantern."

"it's not finished yet!"

Faced with the desperate situation, Xu Shu smiled coldly.

Above his head, in a place that only Taichu Juan could see, a swirling black mist turned into an abundant purple mist, and luck enveloped the head.

[Sit-ups] → [Succubus]!
The next second, Xu Shu tossed his hair in a very showy way, and gave a smug, confident smile showing his white teeth to Bai Jie who was standing not far away with a look of disgust: "Hehe!"

He went straight towards Bai Jie, completely ignoring the damage that would be caused by the "Ashes of Sorrow" that was constantly dissolving in his body. He was like an indomitable warrior, and no one could stop him from approaching!

“Wu!???”

Seeing a smiling face approaching rapidly, Bai Jie's pupils suddenly shrank. He wanted to resist, but his brain was suddenly filled with strong desire.

Then her sweet lips felt hot and were bitten by Xu Shu. She was pushed to the ground and failed to turn into nothingness in time.

Boom~
In an instant, the cherry blossoms and ashes in the entire duel arena seemed to turn pink.

……

……

"The fifth ring!"

"This monster is much stronger than the previous one."

"I feel like Brother Xu is having a hard time~"

Behind the crowded stands, in the honeycomb compartments.

Xie Xiaochan, Gu Yueming and others gathered in front of the amber film "floor-to-ceiling window" in front.

Among them, Ning Zhaoxuan was forced to sit on the ground, chanting the "Nirvana Mantra" continuously to deal with the extremely stubborn mermaid who was unwilling to be saved.

All the others were extremely nervous, paying close attention to the battle in the duel arena and communicating with each other in low voices.

In fact, the first three rounds were actually fine.

No matter whether it was the black-haired girl in the first match, the muscular man in the second match, or the White Snake Lady in the third match, they were all killed instantly by Xu Shu with overwhelming force.

However, starting from the fourth game, the difficulty increased rapidly.

When the man standing on the ice wheels and above the frosty sky appeared, almost everyone thought that Xu Shu was doomed to fail.

Fortunately, he won in the end, which gave everyone peace of mind.

However, when it came to the fifth round, everyone saw that no matter how hard Xu Shu tried, he couldn't even hurt the female ghost who looked like a widow, and they all knew that this time they were probably doomed.

"Strange, according to the information I collected, monsters of the late third stage will appear in the fifth round. Why is the difficulty so high this time? In the fourth round, it was already at the late third stage, and in the fifth round, it was directly at the peak of the third stage? Who can beat this? Is it because the helper went to the wrong place?"

Xie Xiaochan touched her little chin, looked back at the honest and dumb biochemical mother body that was tied up like a dumpling, her eyes full of confusion.

Jiang Biyun, Gu Pan and others looked at the cherry blossom gray mist below that was shaking at a fairly regular frequency.

Because they were blocked from view and couldn't see what was happening inside, everyone was a little worried and asked:

"Do you think he can win?"

"Should I say I can survive?"

Xie Xiaochan pursed her lips and said, "Well, the chances of winning may not be great! Xu Shu's strength is certainly not bad compared to ordinary dragon elephants, but in the end he still lacks the means to truly defeat the enemy..."

Having said this, she paused subconsciously.

Everyone's heart suddenly lifted.

"Ordinary Dragon Elephant" Yan Shan moved to the side feeling quite guilty.

Xie Xiaochan changed the subject and continued, "But in my opinion, there is no problem for him to survive. I gave him a boundary-breaking talisman before. If he really can't bear it, he can use the boundary-breaking talisman to forcibly isolate himself for two hours and drag it out until the end of the duel." (Note 1: Chapter 127 of this volume)
"In this way, although we will be judged as losing the battle, we should be able to get three to five minutes of boss challenge time based on our previous accumulated points. Hey, it's a little less, but we have a chance to try."

After hearing what Xie Xiaochan said, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

When Gu Pan heard the boundary-breaking talisman, he suddenly raised his eyebrows, looked at Xie Xiaochan deeply, and then looked at the "delicate green tea" Gu Yueming next to him.

For some reason, she suddenly sat up straight.

The rest of the people stopped talking, thinking that since there was suddenly no fighting noise below, it seemed that Xu Shu must have used the Boundary Breaking Talisman.

So everyone just stared silently at the shaking fog below and waited patiently.

At this time, Xie Xiaochan seemed to be silent and waiting, but in fact she walked to the far right as if inadvertently, and walked to the side of the "Microwave" Taoist priest who had been silent and had a cold face.

"Senior Sister Lu, did you discover anything just now?" Xie Xiaochan's lips trembled slightly, and they communicated quietly with each other in a secret voice.

"Hmm?" Lu Bingwei kept holding her non-existent breasts with both hands.

Xie Xiaochan tapped her chin, pointed at the duel field below, and said casually, "Haha, I just saw that you seemed a little dazed when the battle started, especially when the enemy on the fifth stage appeared, your eyes were as big as copper bells for more than a second. Could it be that you are also familiar with this place and saw the enemy you have challenged before?"

"What do you want to say?" Lu Bingwei narrowed her eyes and spoke in an unfriendly tone.

It was impossible for her not to hear the sarcasm and doubt in the other person's words.

Xie Xiaochan said: "I'm just a little curious. Haha, your master and my master are also old friends who have a good relationship. Senior sister, don't you plan to share some information with me?"

"...I'm just surprised at how powerful the enemy is." Lu Bingwei said casually.

Xie Xiaochan insisted: "Oh, really? Even a person as powerful as you, Senior Sister Lu, thinks it is very powerful? It seems that I am short-sighted and did not see the enemy's strength. This is not good for Xu Shu."

"Believe it or not, it's up to you." Lu Bingwei was silent for a moment, turned her head and ignored this sarcastic 'Heavenly Lady'.

She really didn't expect that Xie Xiaochan would keep paying attention to her, so she planned to be more careful next time.

But in reality, she didn't think it mattered.

What she really didn't expect and was shocked about was that she would actually detect such a familiar scent!

That is……

"The aura of the Spirit King... Why does she have the aura of the Spirit King?"

"Did I make a mistake?"

"No, there is no mistake. This aura is clearly..."

"Could it be that the Spirit King is here and she has obtained a part of him?"

"Unfortunately, the spiritual pressure of the ruler of this place is too strong, and we cannot resist it at all."

"Maybe I can ask Xu Shu later if he saw anything special on that guy... Well, I'll leave it for the future and come back here to explore!"

Lu Bingwei stared at the "Senbonzakura" field that was shaking in the duel arena with a slightly concentrated gaze, muttering to herself.
