Coupled with the Nightmare's iconic fang-shaped mouthparts, it can be described as hideous and terrifying, making people uneasy.

Ok.

The boss is blocking the door.

The adventurers were on high alert, and as the nominal "commander-in-chief", Sicily certainly could not show any weakness at this moment.

He overcame his inner fear and said calmly, "Filthy and despicable demons! Do you want to fight us to the death?"

"Yes."

"if not?"

The two demons answered immediately.

"..."

Sicily was stunned, not knowing what to say.

Honest.

So honest.

What should I do now?

Subconsciously, Sicily glanced at Xu Mu - he really didn't know what to do in this situation. Sicily wasn't bragging, if his status didn't allow it, he would have peed all over the floor.

Xu Mu smiled and said simply, "Lord of the Whirlwind, right? Please explain the rules of the third level!"

"..."

Lord Huixuan glanced at Xu Mu.

no doubt.

This strange human wearing a strange mask is the backbone of the team in front of us.

The Whirlwind Lord could feel that there was great power in his body, and the aura emanating from his body was extremely powerful, and it seemed that he was even stronger than the Abyss Lord!

Do not……

impossible.

Humans have their limits. No matter how talented a person is or how rigorous their training is, it is impossible for them to break through the absolute shackles imposed by "race"!

Unless you surpass humans!

"Just a more skilled adventurer, nothing more than that!"

Lord Huilun thought secretly, then said: "The rules of the third level are very simple! Everyone, please look--"

thump.

Lord Whirlwind placed an hourglass on the dining table.

hum.

A light shield suddenly appeared, trapping the Whirlwind Lord and the Dire Blood Claw in the middle.

The Lord of Whirlwind glanced at everyone, finally focusing his gaze on Xu Mu: "The third level is called 'Devil's Hide and Seek'! In five minutes, the sand in the hourglass will run out. Before then, the Nightmare King Bloodclaw and I cannot leave this light shield. You need to seize this time and hide in a corner of this villa..."

The devil's hide-and-seek?

interesting.

Xu Mu asked, "What happens after you hide it?"

"Half an hour. If Blood Claw and I don't find you within half an hour, then you'll be victorious—you can leave on your own and take your reward. We won't stop you!"

ha?

Xu Mu was stunned and asked curiously, "Is this the only way? Can't we defeat you?"

"..."

"..."

The Whirlwind Lord and Nightmare looked at each other and suddenly burst into laughter.

The Nightmare laughed and said, "Interesting! Interesting! Human, I'm beginning to like you! After seeing my face, haven't you lost your fighting spirit? You deserve to be killed! Your bones—they should be especially sharp!"

Lord Gyro shook his head and said, "Human adventurer! You can certainly break through this maze by killing us, but... do you think that's possible?"

OK OK.

Xu Mu turned around and said to the others, "You guys should find a place to hide first."

Eh?

Sicily looked at the sand falling from the hourglass and said, "Mr. Canglan, what about you?"

Xu Mu raised his hand: "I'll watch them to prevent them from cheating."

This……

Everyone looked at each other, without saying anything or taking any action.

They knew in their hearts that Xu Mu had no intention of hiding.

He planned to act recklessly.

Xu Mu pointed at the hourglass and said, "Hurry up, the countdown has already begun. Master Sicily, and everyone else, don't blame me for being harsh. With your current combat power, you can't be a help to me, but will only hinder me. Leave now, I can win alone."

"..."

Goo!

Such an evaluation is really unsatisfactory!

But, it seems to be true.

Sicily and the others looked solemn, but finally said, "Mr. Canglan, take care!"

They turned around.

Nolan looked around, a look of struggle on his face. Xu Mu saw it and said, "Brave Nolan, your stage is not here. You are a brave warrior, and you have a strong attribute amplification when fighting against the Demon King."

"..."

Nolan took a step back and said, "Mr. Canglan, be careful."

Finally, the black dress.

Xu Mu took out the "Power of Dagon" from his backpack and handed it to the woman in the black skirt: "This is a divine weapon."

"Eh?!"

Black skirt shocked!

She looked at the short staff in her hand, which was glowing with strange colors, and the orange-red light on the top of the staff that flickered like breathing, and felt the breath of destruction.

Xu Mu simply said, "Even if I asked you to leave, you probably wouldn't want to leave."

The woman in the black dress smiled and said, "Sir Archon, I am your squire. I will not leave you."

"So don't go too far, just wait nearby. If my attack doesn't go well, use your artifact to shock them."

"……Yes."

The woman in the black dress agreed and turned into black smoke and disappeared without a trace.

"Great! Truly great!"

The Lord of Whirlwind clapped his hands.

It looked at Xu Mu and continued, "You humans lack strong bodies and sharp claws. You need long periods of training to master the powers that we demons are born with. You are so weak that it's unimaginable! But—you who are so weak, you have created a civilization that amazes demons. This is all thanks to humans like you who are willing to sacrifice themselves! Thank me, human! You have touched me. When I kill you later, I will leave your body intact."

"Jie Jie Jie!"

As soon as the Whirlwind Lord finished speaking, Nightmare Blood Claw let out a cruel laugh.

Its soybean-sized eyes stared intently at Xu Mu as it murmured, "Like Lord Huilun, I admire your character. Unlike Lord Huilun, I love torturing brave humans like you! Boy, after the countdown is over, I will patiently, carefully, and meticulously tear you into pieces, ensuring that each piece is the same size! Now, you can start to fear! Alas!"

"...You keep chattering away. I wasn't as proud as you were when I killed those three demon kings."

Xu Mu let out a breath.

Red lightning began to accumulate.

"It's been a while since I've used my 'Dragon Breaking Slash' at full strength... I'll use you two to test whether my special technique is rusty or not."

boom.

Thunder exploded.

Chapter 181 #178 It's dead!

The description of [Dragon Breaking Slash] is very simple: it calls upon thunder and launches continuous slashes to slay dragons and destroy gods.

This skill was taught to Xu Mu by the Goddess of Time herself when he became the "acting bishop" of the Church of the Goddess of Time.

Xu Mu initially used it only as an output skill, but in the subsequent game process, he gradually discovered the true use of Dragon Breaking Slash -

Transform natural energy and unfold the red electric field!

"Bah."

"Bah."

Bright red electric snakes slithered across the floor. The composition of the air seemed to have changed, and my shoulders felt inexplicably heavy.

The extreme dryness gives people a tingling sensation, and the surroundings are eerily quiet.

In the silence that can be described as "dead silence", dull thunder came from nowhere, as captivating as the roar of a giant beast, and little by little, it brought out the trembling from the depths of the soul.

what's the situation?

The returning lord felt uneasy as he noticed a clear change in Xu Mu's aura.

At first glance, it seemed as if a giant dragon was lurking behind the masked human, and an indescribable sense of majesty was overwhelming him, giving people a sense of awe, like an abyss that could not be seen.

and--

rise!

rise!

Xu Mu's momentum is still rising!

It's no longer as simple as it seems at first glance...

That human must have used some terrifying skills. In the past three minutes, the breath of death and destruction lingered on his body, dangerous waves spread from his body, and red electric snakes swam to every corner.

"It's you! It's you!"

The next moment, the Nightmare King Blood Claw felt a chill down his spine!

Its soybean-sized eyes widened to the size of ping-pong balls. It pointed at Xu Mu's nose with trembling fingertips, and a frantic voice emanated from its fang-like mouthparts: "It's you! The 'Grim Reaper' in pitch-black armor!"

Black armor?

grim Reaper?

Lord Huilun frowned and asked, "Lord Blood Claw, do you know him?"

Blood Claw's Adam's apple rolled, and there was no fighting spirit in his eyes.

It retreated, its back pressed against the light curtain. "It was him! He was the one who slaughtered my people! There's no mistake... I recognize this move! He drives thunder and lightning, he is invincible! My parents, my brothers and sisters all died in his bright red lightning!"

"Oh? Someone I know."

Red electric light lingered on Xu Mu's body.

He held the "Dulong Horn" in his hand and smiled kindly: "I've wanted to ask from the beginning - are you from the Stam area?"

"Goo."

Bloodclaw didn't answer.

It's just very scared.

Xu Mu raised his sword and said with a smile, "You two, my 'Red Lightning Field' has been set up. The third layer of the Whirling Abyss is limited in area, and the natural energy stored there is not sufficient. This time, the Dragon Breaking Slash won't be too strong. But against you... I think it should be enough."

He glanced at the hourglass.
