Heavenly Official Sends Evil

Chapter 976 Fiends Block the Way
The battle that followed was undeniably difficult and dangerous, but it was also the most boring battle of this blessed land.

It's so boring that there's no need to go into detail; to sum it up:

On Wu Xian's side, the offensive continued relentlessly, with cleverly set traps, ingenious tactics, and a thoroughly enjoyable and flashy display, leaving him exhausted and panting heavily...

What about the demon foes?

Block, poke, block, poke, block, poke...

Wu Xian was completely overwhelmed by these simple and unadorned moves, which were full of 'sweat and effort', and felt disgusted as if he were fighting against Shi Ji.

In the end, Chen Chao proved to be the most reliable. He had a headless executioner who had been waiting in the cage, ready to strike. This executioner possessed the full power of an executioner, and the first blow that was sure to hit the neck was still intact.

After Chen Chao ordered the executioner to attack, the executioner instantly teleported behind the demon ghouls and suddenly beheaded one of them.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Wu Xian darted over the edge, shouted, and ran into the darkness deep inside the basement.

How will the remaining three invincible demonic ghosts deal with Wu Xian's escape?
Hey, they can't catch up!
Even for evil spirits, this set of equipment is too heavy. Although it is impregnable to block this place, it is too much to ask them to chase people.

"Let's go back!"

Upon hearing the shout, Wang Wei and Chen Chao took off running towards the basement exit.

According to the pre-arranged tactics, after Wu Xian shouted this, they should go back and make sure that the other newcomers wouldn't be foolish enough to spy on the basement entrance.

……

Deep in the basement.

Left with no other choice, Meng Longtu took back the three demonic accomplices.

At this moment, Wu Xian was almost at the finish line, and could even see Meng Longtu's huge figure getting closer and closer.

But Wu Xian stopped in his tracks.

Because the seventh wave of demons has appeared, and this time it's not an enemy that can be dealt with by trickery.

The two demonic ghouls blocking Wu Xian's way were completely different in style from the previous demonic ghouls.

The monster on the left was covered in a crimson exoskeleton, with sharp serrations along the edges and bloody bone spikes protruding from its joints. Its transparent insect wings trembled slightly, and its compound eyes on its head gleamed with a dangerous light. Most terrifying of all were the eight deformed arms that stretched out from its ribs, each wielding a different scarlet weapon.

Knife, spear, sword, halberd, axe, shield, hammer, mace!

The crimson evil aura emanating from his body spread outwards, even staining the surrounding objects red.

The evil spirit on the right is even more bizarre. It is a floating lump of flesh with dozens of slender arms extending from its writhing flesh. Each arm has a constantly rotating eyeball embedded in its palm. The fingers imitate the posture of the Thousand-Hand Guanyin, each forming a strange hand seal. Although it is only the size of a small dog, when you close your eyes, it seems as if a huge monster is floating there!
hiss……

Wu Xian's temples throbbed, and every pore on his body was stinging from the soaring evil energy.

Based on his experience of entering blessed lands many times, these two things are probably evil spirits!
Although it's only at the bottom of the list of evil spirits, its threat level is far greater than that of a major evil spirit.

Although Wu Xian had defeated enemies of the fierce level before, he had obtained enough intelligence in advance and combined multiple abilities to finally achieve victory with difficulty.

However, the abilities of these two are completely unknown!

……

Meng Longtu took a step forward, shook his official robe, and looked at Wu Xian with a stern expression. At this moment, they were close enough to communicate by voice.

“You know in your heart that these two vengeful spirits are no match for you.”

“Even if you really can win, I have a cougar that's stronger than both of them combined, so... you can't kill me today.” “In the end, we're both just pawns in a game, and deciding the winner is already our duty.”

"Besides, this is not your world, and we have no personal grudges between us."

So, let's go back.

"Take those humans, take the seven dogs from the water dungeon, leave this world, and never come back."

After hearing this, Wu Xian tilted his head and said in a threatening tone, "Killing you and defeating them don't seem to have any necessary connection, do they?"

Meng Longtu snorted coldly, and the two evil spirits cooperated to release evil energy, causing the surrounding space to tremble and countless dust particles to fall.

“You don’t need to bluff anymore. Your method of attracting lightning is indeed terrifying, but the prerequisite for attracting lightning is that there is a lot of lightning around, and that talisman burns half of itself after each use. I know you can’t use that trick anymore.”

"The reason I haven't killed you immediately is because I admire your courage to... to raise your sword against those in power. If you don't know what's good for you, I can kill you right here and now."

Meng Longtu said that.

But what he despises most is courage, and he is the one bluffing.

Meng Longtu did not allow the evil spirits to attack, nor did he take advantage of his advantage to taunt them. He also did not continue the betting game when Wu Xian was in a weak period, all for the same reason.

He is afraid!

Despite his overwhelming advantage on paper, he was still afraid of Wu Xian; that slash at the fierce god had shattered all his courage.

Meng Longtu could only peek at Wu Xian's behavior from a distance after the decisive battle began and in the three halls of the county government. He did not know what abilities Wu Xian had. In his eyes, Wu Xian seemed to have a four-dimensional pocket. He might pull out an overpowered item at any time and kill him instantly without any reason.

Therefore, Meng Longtu wanted to settle things peacefully and get rid of this plague god as soon as possible.

"Oh."

Wu Xian responded and extinguished the flames on the Burning Dream Blade.

When Meng Longtu saw Wu Xian put away his weapon, his eyes lit up with joy, and he felt that the negotiations seemed to have been successful.

After the flames died down, Wu Xian was left with only the Cursed Dream Dagger. On the most conspicuous part of the dagger's blade was a circular sun mark.

Upon seeing this mark, Wu Xian looked up at Meng Longtu and said:
"Time is up."

Meng Longtu was taken aback: "What time?"

"The distance is sufficient."

Wu Xian raised the hand holding the knife, and the blue mark on the back of his hand blossomed into the phantom of a full moon.

call!
The fire blade and ribbons reappeared instantly, and this time the white blade was radiating terrifying light and heat. The flames in the shape of solar prominences flowed on the blade, just as Wu Xian was holding a blade-shaped sun in his hand!

The basement was brighter than during the day, and the colors of all the objects were distorted under the strong light. Even Meng Longtu was enveloped in a warm light, as if he had transformed from an evil spirit into a saint.

The brick walls and soil surrounding Wu Xian began to melt and evaporate, and heat even gushed out from the basement entrance hundreds of meters away.

Anyone looking out from the basement entrance would surely be burned by the intense heat.

Wu Xian chose to enter the basement at 4:20 a.m. not to rest, nor to make it a round number.

Instead, it was waiting for the sun mark on the blade to become complete!
