Chapter 604 The Cul-de-sac and... Flames of Fury!
“No way!”
The crimson-eyed young man clenched his fists as he trembled. “That energy, that feeling... No, you couldn’t have imagined this. Have you seen this? No, no way... I don’t think a place like this exists!” he shouted, hysterically.
If that was a world that indeed existed, it would be the most devastating realization.
That world was enough to make one go crazy!
“That is a place I’ve seen. It does exist,” Su Ping stated the fact calmly.
That was a place he had certainly visited.
It was just a corner of the Chaotic Realm of the Undead.
That was the most distinct world of undead creatures; such views were the norm in that place. It was a world that was even more terrifying than hell, where all the undead creatures across history had gathered.
The most vicious and disgusting creatures could be seen everywhere.
And Su Ping had lived there for an entire month.
He had seen enough terrifying things, all thanks to the system and unlimited revival chances. He didn’t lose his sanity because he had refined his will and spirit.
“I don’t believe it!!” the young man shouted, but he could no longer hide the fear in his eyes.
Right then—from the clouds behind Su Ping
—that thing that was eating the bones suddenly stopped. A roar that was the most violent of all was heard.
The roar lingered in the sky. The ocean of blood was tumbling violently.
The young man was trembling and his eyes were so wide that his eyeballs could fall out. That roar was more threatening than any dragon’s roar. He felt like an ant standing in front of a behemoth; he could be eaten or stepped on to death at any minute.
He had never seen anything like that.
Even the ruler he had met at the deepest parts of the Deep Caves would be considered vulnerable compared to that creature!
But the World of Nothingness was telling him that it was a world that the human creature had seen with his own eyes!
That was not something the human had imagined!
Had the world outside the Deep Caves become that terrifying?
The crimson-eyed young man was terrified and confused.
He was becoming mentally disturbed. Many ugly and large figures appeared in Su Ping’s Force Field; each and every one of them was intimidating. They had to be above the legendary rank, even above the Star Rank. It was a rank that the young man was unable to fathom!
But there was more than one of them!
They came, one after the other!
“Ah!!!”
The young man cried toward the sky. He cradled his head and cried non stop. That blood world was cracking open.
The ocean of blood was being sucked into a deep swirl under Su Ping’s feet.
The evil creatures would disappear right after they came into being in the ocean of blood.
Bang!!
The entire world finally collapsed.
The ocean of blood vanished. The sky was gone. Su Ping was seeing the dark road in the Corridor again.
The Force Field was still working behind Su Ping, but it wasn’t as vast as it was when Su Ping was trapped in the World of Nothingness. There would be the occasional appearance of some horrifying creatures in the limited Force Field, seemingly real creatures that were just trapped in another dimension.
Phew!
Phew!
The young man with crimson eyes was panting. Tears of blood were coursing down from his four eyes. He stared at Su Ping; the fear in his eyes soon turned into anger and killing intent.
He didn’t want to admit it, but he had just been frightened to the point of tears!
It was humiliating!
He was at the Fate State and he had gained his status in the Deep Caves with his viciousness and killing intent!
Still, he had been scared by a human creature. How insulting!
“You. You should rot in hell!!”
The young man with crimson eyes clenched his teeth. He must have been clenching his jaw too hard that his teeth became deformed.
No matter how terrifying the projected world was, it wasn’t real combat strength. One would have to rely on claws and teeth to fight!
Roar!!
The young man resorted to action, exerting his full strength right away. He first confined the surrounding space and then teleported to where Su Ping was, aiming to smash the latter’s head with his sharp claws.
In the meantime, Su Ping had opened his eyes. He saw the young man about to reach him. Su Ping lifted his hands and the strong impact upon contact smashed him backward. He was stopped by the wall hundreds of meters away; the entire pathway was trembling
Su Ping felt a piercing pain in his arms. He looked down to check; the white bones on his hands were cracking, but the healing was already in process.
The Little Skeleton had protected him. Otherwise, he would have been torn apart.
Run!
He ran away at once, without any hesitation.
He had been able to break free from the beast king’s spiritual strike by using his Force Field. Even so, he was sure he didn’t have the ability to fight that Fate State beast king. That beast king was much more terrifying than the Otherworld Heavenly King. The only way out was to run.
The young man shouted, “You cannot get away from me!!”
He swung his arms and space began to change. Su Ping was running forward, but he was only traveling backward in reality. Su Ping wanted to take his sword to cut the space, but the young man had appeared behind him and the former was scratching at the air with his sharp claws. The space twisted again.
Su Ping had to turn back to stop the claws from reaching him.
Bang!
The beast king bashed Su Ping again. “Go to hell!” The young man approached Su
Ping.
Su Ping was losing ground; his arms had become numb. The white bones on his arms had too many cracks after fending off more than a dozen strikes; it was appalling to the eyes.
Su Ping knew that the Little Skeleton could not hold on for much longer. He was worried
Indeed, a battle pet warrior at the titled rank such as him would not have enough strength to deal with a Fate State beast king.
Inside the scroll.
Whoosh!
Li Yuanfeng had gotten in. He stood at the place where the scroll closed and then saw what seemed to be a blue sky. Li Yuanfeng looked pale. He had placed all of his hope on Su Ping at the moment.
If Su Ping died, he would also die.
“Sir?”
Su Lingyue rushed to where he was. She still had the silver scales on her body and she could fly.
Yan Bingyue could not believe that.
She had easily subdued the girl during the Elite League in the Longjiang Base City; the latter had only been able to fight because of that strange dragon. But here they were again, and the girl had somehow become able to fly.
Did she reach the titled rank?!
Li Yuanfeng had also noticed that Su Lingyue was flying, but he wasn’t in the mood to probe. He was just too worried.
Su Lingyue noticed the worry in his face. She had to ask, “Where, where’s my brother?”
“Your brother is outside,” Li Yuanfeng said.
Su Lingyue didn’t understand. “And what about you?”
Li Yuanfeng decided that he should tell her since she was Su Ping’s sister. “We got into some trouble. The Thousand-eyed Demon Beast, a creature that guards the Corridor for the other beasts, somehow noticed us and it is hunting us down at the moment.”
“The Thousand-eyed Demon Beast?”
Su Lingyue was able to guess the ominous significance hidden behind those simple words.
“My brother cannot do it alone. Sir, you...” Su Lingyue was anxious.
Li Yuanfeng explained, “Your brother is only at the titled rank, but he’s much better than I am. I would only slow him down.”
Su Lingyue asked, “So, my brother is out there alone with that Thousand-eyed Demon Beast?”
Li Yuanfeng clenched his fists and nodded.
“I...” Out of pure impulse, Su Lingyue wanted to say that she could go out to help.
But before she could reach the word “help,” she had regained her senses.
Could I help at all?
Her eyes reddened.
The Deep Caves were full of beast kings, but Su Ping came in regardless, to find her at the risk of his life.
On the other hand, she couldn’t even offer the slightest help.
She had to stay there.
If Su Ping died, they would also go down with him but she didn’t mind that. She was the reason why Su Ping was taking such risks.
She knew that Su Ping was talented, more than anyone she knew.
The brother she had was not the loser whom she used to think he was. He was a genius!
She had met many students that were considered talented after entering the academy, including those with last names “Fei, Nan, Ji, and Guo.”
But compared to her “mean” brother, those talented students were just so so.
Given time, Su Ping would be able to reach a height that no one would be able to imagine, and she firmly believed it!
And yet...
Just for her sake, Su Ping-her brother, who had such a promising future—had entered that place and might even die in there.
Am I really worthwhile?
Am I? Su Lingyue bit her lips. Blood oozed out.
The taste of blood was bitter in her mouth.
She wished that she could trade the rest of that life, the next life, and the next life after that for Su Ping’s safety.
If God was merciful and asked her for a price in return, she would agree without hesitation.
But reality was that it would never happen.
Nothing she did would have any meaning. That was true desperation!
Inside the complex Corridor
Beast kings were coming out from their lairs, heading toward one place.
There was an order they could not disobey. At the same time, beast kings were eager for the taste of blood themselves; they were more than happy to kill the invaders.
While the beast kings were on their way, they heard a sonorous bark all of a sudden.
That was a bark filled with fury!
Bang!!
A dog’s head appeared. It was the Dark Dragon Hound.
It appeared out of nowhere and stood in front of Su Ping, unleashing over a hundred legendary rank skills the moment he showed up. The glare was enough to light up the
world!
Skills of the legendary rank were hard to get, not to mention mastering over a hundred of them at the same time. This would be a striking scene to anyone and any beast king.
Those were all defensive skills!
The strikes from the young man stopped.
He narrowed his eyes as he landed his gaze on the angry dog. To his surprise, he was scared by the killing intent in the dog’s eyes.
What was that?
The young man moved back to add some distance; he had to observe the battle pet first.
