Heavenly Official Sends Evil

Chapter 754 Go to the First Floor

The rent collector's severed body began to burn from the gap.

Wu Xian stretched out the axe as if he was lighting a firecracker with a lighter and poked the rent collector in the face. If he saw any unusual movement, he would leave immediately.

"Is this thing really dead?"

"Do you think it still looks alive?" Du E was amused by Wu Xian's action.

After confirming that it was safe, Wu Xian stood up and kicked the rent collector on the head without any hesitation.

"Judging from the structure of this building, the rent collector is guarding the most important key and can go back and forth between the four floors. He should be like a big boss."

"It's unusual for such an evil spirit to be solved so easily by us. The small evil spirits in the room are more troublesome than it."

In order to deal with the rent collector, Wu Xian came up with an interesting trick, but before he could use it, the rent collector was defeated.

Wan Jue put the axe aside and said as he sorted out his clothes: "The rent collector is not weak. His strength and speed are both at the standard level of a great evil spirit."

His clothes had been torn off by the rent collector during the fight just now, revealing stringy muscles with almost no fat underneath.

Wu Xian suddenly realized.

He felt that the rent collector was weak because Wan Jue was attracting firepower, and they had seen too many evil spirits of this type in the previous blessed land.

So far, the difficulty of finding the Double Lotus Blessed Land is indeed much more difficult than that of ordinary blessed lands.

The strange mechanisms in the apartment test the family members' experience in dealing with evil spirits, while the big evil spirit, the rent collector in the corridor, tests the family members' hard power.

It is difficult for newcomers who have just experienced the blessed land once or twice to survive in this situation.

After praising the rent collector's ability, Wan Jue turned around and said:
"But with such strength, he can't be the final boss of the blessed land. We still have the unknown first floor to explore, and judging from the description of the nightmare seed, we may experience multiple nightmares."

"The danger to this blessed land is far from over. We cannot take it lightly."

The three of them waited in the corridor for a while.

The rent collector's body burned up, and the ashes did not form stories like "The Spider Woman" and "The Hanged Ghost".

This shows that the tenant and the evil spirit in the apartment are not of the same type.

When the corpse was burned to ashes, three nightmare seeds, six nightmare coins and a bunch of keys appeared from the ashes on the ground.

In this battle, Wan Jue was the absolute main force, so he took a nightmare seed and four nightmare coins.

Wu Xian and Du E respectively represent a seed and a coin.

Finally, there is the bunch of keys. Seven keys are strung on an iron hoop. These keys are larger than normal keys, and each key has a rag of different colors hanging on it.

Du E picked up the key and yawned: "With this thing, we can leave from the first floor. Let's go to the first floor after daybreak."

……

After taking the spoils.

Wu Xian and three others found a relatively clean room and waited for dawn.

They had not rested for a single day since entering the blessed land, and were already showing signs of fatigue.

In order to fight sleepiness, the three of them chatted idly.

Wan Jue looked at Wu Xian's remaining axe and said, "Your axe is a sharp weapon for killing. The murderous aura you burst out when you swung the axe yesterday was also great. The combination of the two should have more than that power. There must be something wrong."

Wu Xian was shocked and quickly asked Wan Jue what the problem was.

The two communicated for a while, and when Wan Jue learned that Wu Xian's murderous aura came from his "potential", he understood where the problem lay.

"You are just venting your murderous intent, but you don't really have the intention to kill the target, so you can't fully unleash the power that this potential should have."

"It's like holding a gun and hitting someone with the butt of the gun!"

"No matter how much I say, it's better to let you experience what it feels like when you really want to kill someone." Wan Jue looked at Wu Xian calmly.

Just this one glance made Wu Xian feel horrified, and he immediately stood up and took two steps back.

Just now he seemed to feel that there was a knife on his neck, and the hairs on his body stood up. It seemed that he would be killed by Wanjue in another second or two, and even his breathing became rapid.

Du E looked at Wu Xian in confusion, totally unaware of why he had such a big reaction.

Wan Jue waved towards Wu Xianzhao: "I have the same potential as you. That was the true use of this potential just now."

Wu Xian sat back and asked him in shock: "How did you do that just now?"

Wan Jue grinned, his expression looking a little perverted.

"I just wanted to kill you from the bottom of my heart. I wanted to slowly cut your neck, spill your hot blood on my head, and feel your life gradually disappear!"

"Not for victory, not for some kind of benefit, just to enjoy your death."

After Wan Jue's guidance, Wu Xian finally realized where he was lacking.

When he first gained this potential, Wu Xian had no idea how to trigger it. After a period of research, he came up with the 'expression switch', which allowed him to release murderous intent through a ferocious expression.

But the real way to trigger this potential is to have pure murderous intent towards the target, just like Wan Jue.

But even if he knew the principle, Wu Xian couldn't learn it.

Unless it was against a real scum, it would be difficult for Wu Xian to exude pure murderous intent. Whether he killed people or beheaded evil spirits, it was all to achieve a goal, not for the sake of killing itself.

I'm afraid only someone like Wan Jue, who is born with a murderous nature, can truly unleash the full effect of this potential.

"This potential is really not suitable for me."

Although I was unable to learn the correct usage of 'Natural Born Killer', this conversation was still meaningful.

Wu Xian thus knew that when choosing potential, one should not only consider the effect, but also the compatibility with oneself.

If the compatibility is right, the effect of potential will not necessarily be weaker than blessing!
……

The long night passed slowly.

The lights in the corridor came on, and Wu Xian and the other two left the room with tired looks. Du E was still holding the lamp that she had assembled yesterday in her arms.

After they went out, they headed towards the elevator.

When he arrived at Apartment 202, Wu Xian was surprised to find that the door of the apartment was locked, while it was obviously open last night.

Except for Apartment 202, all traces of yesterday's fighting in the corridor had disappeared.

It seems that every time night passes, some things in this building will be refreshed, and the apartments where the residents were killed may welcome new residents.

But now the three of them just wanted to leave the building quickly, so they put coins into the elevator and pressed the button for the first floor.

In the elevator, Wu Xian noticed that there were two more bloody fingerprints on the elevator button area, but this was normal because Wan Jue had taken an indigenous person covered in blood in the elevator yesterday.

Ding……

The elevator door opens.

What appeared before the three people was a pitch-black corridor.

Du E fiddled with it for a while and turned on the homemade battery-powered lamp, and the corridor was finally filled with light.

Because there are no apartment rooms, the corridor on the first floor is very spacious. There is a square pillar every two meters. There is a faint mist between the pillars, making it difficult to see what is at the end of the corridor.

Du E exclaimed: "Why isn't it bright? I checked it before I left."

Wu Xian was startled and turned to look at Du E, only to see that Du E's eyes were covered by a pair of pale hands!
