251 Bravely Fight the Serious Illness (1/2)
Stellar Fairy Wang Lulu’s magical dance charmed every living being. The colorful skirt shone in that stone chamber, dazzling everyone present.
During that magical dance, waves after waves of people spurting out blood were heard in the stone chamber—someone even gushed out blood from his seven orifices.
Finally, after numerous flashes of light, the stone chamber was deserted. In addition to the bloodstains on the ground, there was no trace of other people ever been there. There was only a rhythm of lively dance steps on the ground, reverberating unceasingly.
A moment later, the dancing stopped, the stellar fairy’s magical dance finally ended. Wang Lu sighed, took off Liu Li’s colorful skirt, looked around, and then smiled. ”Sure enough, the last man standing has no qualms in doing things, no need to feel ashamed on anything that makes people ashamed, because the man’s concept of shame is different from ordinary people.”
After he finished laughing, he no longer smiled. On the contrary, his expression turned unusually cold.
”Okay, I’ve won. Let me see your true face, brother that manipulates behind the scene!”
As soon as his voice fell, the stone chamber floor collapsed, and a bottomless dark pit engulfed Wang Lu whole.
——
In that boundless darkness, Wang Lu has been falling for a long time. In accordance with the laws of physics, he had traveled for hundreds of miles, yet the bottom was still elusive.
Ancient Sword Tomb was in an unidentified space, thus, theoretically, if he dropped out of the edge of the space, he would enter a space of endless turbulence, which was likely to appear like the scene before him. However, Wang Lu was very clear that he didn’t fall out of the sword tomb, but he was still inside it. It was just that the sword tomb was unimaginably big, and the person behind the eight virtues trial was probably unimaginably terrifying.
After a long time, Wang Lu finally landed. Like a meteor strike, his landing sent out a huge shockwave and quake to the surrounding. Fortunately, he had Non-Phase Sword Bone, which, coupled with his Non-Phase Method, saved him from suffering injury. If he has the Power King True Body instead, he would’ve spat out blood for sure.
However, Wang Lu was more concerned about his position.
He was surrounded by darkness. A layer of dark haze, like endless tides, enveloped him like it wanted to swallow him whole. It was as if there were endless, cold murderous intention hidden within the black haze, which shook the mind of the people. As long as someone touched that black haze, that someone would feel a burst of despair and mournful wailing, echoing endlessly in the mind. All the human suffering and miseries turned into countless illusions that blinded the primordial spirit. A moment later, one would begin to feel a headache, as if various dark markings were being engraved within the mind.
”This black haze is so ruthless!” Wang Lu immediately stepped back, leaving behind that black haze. He then looked all around him and saw that he had landed on an island within the sea of black tide. The surface area was not big, moreover, it seemed like because of the strong impact that was caused by his fall, it shook the ground so much that it began to disintegrate. As the fissure continued to spread, so was the black tide, causing his footing to become unsteady.
However, not far away, there was a light, and a boat-like silhouette gleamed faintly in the dark. Wang Lu was immediately moved and he quickly strode forward.
Sure enough, it was a boat. The hull floated on the steaming black haze; it seemed like it was mounting the cloud and riding the mist, slowly fluctuation up and down. A few words were engraved on the side of the boat, still in that archaic language thousands of years ago: The sea of bitterness boat.
”The sea of bitterness boat? In other words, the surrounding black haze is the sea of misery? Well, just now, even a little touch gave me such a pain, as if I have suffered the human suffering… I don’t know how could this many human suffering be gathered into this kind of sea and what kind of devil lurks underneath this sea. It was such a coincidence that this boat appeared in this sea of bitterness, it’s like the devil of this sea of bitterness deliberately sent this to welcome me.”
”Ah, that should be it.”
”The evil manipulator behind the scene of that eight virtues trial couldn’t hold itself back anymore. My stellar fairy magical dance just now was indeed a killer move, but it also made this evil manipulator behind the scene helpless.”
In fact, the trial of the shame gate itself was worth pondering. Who decided the scoring criteria for the degree of shame if not subjectively by the evil manipulator behind the scene! Perhaps after witnessing the magical dance of stellar fairy Wang Lulu, some people were just slightly shaken—for example, some twisted perverts—but they were still judged as being ashamed and thus eliminated.
The reason that the evil manipulator behind the scene wanted to see him was probably because it wanted to justify this. And he… seemed to have no choice in this.
If rationally looking from an objective point of view, this time’s trip to the sword tomb has already greatly deviated from the initial expectation. Aside from people of the Shengjing Sect who butted in uninvited, the experience within the sword tomb was very bizarre. At this time, the most sensible choice of action was to quit and return to the sect to report so that the Elders would come and solve it. In fact, the reason why he sent Liu Li and Little Bai away was exactly to allow them to return to the sect as soon as possible, to seek help from the Elders.
However, he himself could not go back just yet. Although this current level was already far beyond his rank, he still has to march forward...
First, the situation has yet to completely get out of control. At any time, he could activate the heavenly talisman. Second, which was also the most important point, just when he entered the trial of the eight virtues, in the squad roster that he held because he was the team leader, Zhu Shiyao’s name has strangely turned into orange.
The team roster was handed to him before he left the Spirit Sword Mountain by the Sect Leader as the symbol of the team leader. Four of the Spirit Sword Sect participant names were written in it. At any time, the situation of a person could be judged by the color of that person’s name on that roster. For example, Liu Li and Bai Shixuan were bright green, meaning that they were safe and sound. As for Wang Lu, he was pale green with a slightly yellowish tint, meaning that he was slightly exhausted. However, Zhu Shiyao was actually orange in color.
