Eternal Night

Chapter 369: Transactions and Travel
"…You're not your real self, right?"

Even with the lightning-fast chopping of the double axes, Wu Xianxiao's voice was still clearly transmitted to the ears of the demon...if it had ears.

This technique of making sounds at super high speed is what Wu Xianxian learned from the World Tyrant in Castlevania. Then a broken broadsword appeared in his hand. At the moment when the giant axe chopped down, the broken broadsword also chopped upwards from bottom to top, colliding with the two blood-red giant axes.

In an instant, a huge force that seemed to be able to shake the mountains burst out from the blood-red axe.

This eight-meter-tall demon displayed a speed and strength that even exceeded the twenty-meter-tall demon Wu Xianxiao encountered in the previous place.

There is no comparison between the two sides. The eight-meter-tall demon in front of him is ten or a hundred times more powerful than the twenty-meter-tall demon.

The shock even caused some cracks on the skin of Wu Xianxiao's arms. However, at the same time, an even more powerful and terrifying force attacked along with the Heroic Spirit Crushing Blade. In less than a second, the blood-colored double axes immediately shattered. At the same time, the arms of the eight-meter-tall demon turned into bloody and fleshy pieces, followed by its upper body...

With one swipe of the knife, only the lower half of the demon was left. Wu Xianxian ignored him and followed the knife. In a flash, he crashed into a military formation of eighty-eight people behind him. With a wave of his hand and a slash of the knife, he chopped them all into pieces in less than a second. At the same time, his blood and energy all burst out, and a violent mist rose from his body, solidifying and not dispersing. The rocks under his feet kept exploding, and for a moment his running speed even reached nearly ten times the speed of sound. Even these obviously abnormal humanoid creatures could not see his movements and speed clearly.

boom!
The entire battlefield exploded. With Wu Xianxiao's running speed of at least three thousand meters per second and his even faster arm swings, the air was directly turned into shock waves by his body and the sword in his hand. The power was so great that it was enough to directly kill any mortal creature. Even these abnormal humanoid creatures could not react at all.

The most terrifying thing is...his title of a common man!
As long as they were within five steps of him, a direct hit from the shock wave would mean annihilation. Not shattering, not death, but the moment of being hit, these abnormal humanoid lives would be turned into nothingness, and their flesh and blood along with their equipment would be directly annihilated and disappear.

It took less than two seconds for Wu Xianxiao to stand still. At the same time, the entire battlefield was shrouded in a blood mist. The 888 abnormal humanoid creatures had all disappeared. Only the demon whose upper body had disappeared began to heal and reorganize. In less than two seconds, its upper body had taken on a rough shape of flesh and blood.

Eight seconds later, the demon was fully restored, along with the two bloody axes on its arms.

It seemed to have no reason at all. The moment it recovered, it continued to raise the giant axe and chopped at Wu Xianxiao. Its speed and strength seemed to be even higher than before.

But this still cannot pose any threat to Wu Xianxiao.

Even if we put aside the title, the super brain, and the negative backlash of the mind, Wu Xianxiao's physical fitness and combat skills are slightly better than that of the demon. The only difference is that the power of this demon is supernatural and completely exceeds the physical limit of this eight-meter body. However, he is still no match for him.

Wu Xianxiao just looked at the demon coldly, swung his knife, and chopped its two arms into bloody mist. At the same time, his lips trembled rapidly, and the sound vibrated in the demon's ears at a speed faster than the speed of sound.

"It's a pity that I can't kill you. You're just a projection of your original self, right?"

After Wu Xianxiao said this, he chopped down again with his knife, turning the demon into a bloody mist. He then looked at the Gaia humans in the distance.

Eight humans died and eighty-eight were injured. He was careless, so he acted without mercy. The 888 abnormal humanoids were slaughtered by him directly, but the anger in his heart could not be eliminated.

In the following time, Wu Xianxiao killed this demon eighty-eight times in a row, an average of once every eight seconds, and each time made the demon more angry.

But what’s the use of just being angry?
When it was killed for the 88th time, the demon completely turned into a bloody aura and was never resurrected again.

At the same time, the blood-red pupil on the ceiling reappeared, and in front of Wu Xianxiao's eyes, it seemed that the huge and unparalleled existence appeared again, sitting on the brass throne. At the same time, a very vague message was transmitted to his mind.

"Respect me, and I will grant you ascension."

Wu Xianxiao just sneered without even the thought of responding.

According to what Wu Xianxiao learned from Beelzebub and many other beings in the dream world, he is still a mortal being.

The power system in the dream world does not seem to be divided by extraordinary power. In the eyes of these high-level beings, there are only three levels of existence: mortals, sublimated bodies, and roots.

According to Wu Xianxiao's rough estimate, mortals include those who can use extraordinary powers and ordinary people who cannot use extraordinary powers, while sublimated bodies are those who carry part of the essence of a certain root, or are on the path of power from a certain root and have reached a critical point.

For example, the Golden Body Arhat is the sublimated body of the Mother of No Birth.

However, this does not simply refer to the level of strength, but some kind of essential change. For example, Chu Minghao does not belong to the sublimation body, but his strength is even so strong that it is likely to rival the 0.3 root.

Therefore, sublimation is not necessarily a good thing. It may represent a manifestation that self-consciousness has been contaminated and controlled by some root cause.

Wu Xianxiao's sneer and rejection made the blood-red pupil show greater interest, and the naked covetousness was fully revealed. The blood-red pupil kept staring at Wu Xianxiao until Wu Xianxiao led everyone out of the arena and hurriedly took them to the treatment center for repair and treatment. The blood-red pupil in Wu Xianxiao's mind then conveyed another message.

"Accept His gaze and His pull, and He will tell Wu Xianxiao an important message about the wish he made."

Wu Xianxiao was stunned for a moment, and he murmured, "You mean, although you paid attention to me before, you couldn't watch me and pull me because of the restrictive rules of this arena? Unless I agreed? And the important information of the wish... is to send these people to the scene where Chu Minghao is?"

This matter was of great importance. After Wu Xianxiao brought everyone to the treatment center, he immediately pulled Wang Yihui, who was not injured, and told him the situation in detail, and also asked about Beelzebub.

"Promise Him!" Beelzebub said immediately.

"Don't agree to Him!" Wang Yihui said immediately.

The two of them came to completely opposite conclusions. Wang Yihui was the first to deny it, saying, "Brother Wu, you have been watched enough by these root beings, and they are probably deceiving you. You don't need to take any more risks!"

Beelzebub retorted, "No! One of the restrictive rules of this Wanjie Arena must be the word 'fairness'. Since He dares to say that he will use information to exchange for attention, it means that this information must involve Chu Minghao's life and death... At least it involves the key information of Wu Xianxiao's journey to the mission location. Otherwise, it can't be called 'fairness'. After all, being watched means being pulled away sooner or later. For non-sublimated bodies, being pulled away may very likely mean death, or even the result that the soul and essence are obtained by it, which is more terrible than death!"

Wang Yihui was stunned. He pondered for a long time, feeling torn. For a moment, he didn't know whether to let Wu Xianxiao refuse or agree.

Wu Xianxiao, on the other hand, was more open-minded. He agreed to Bloody Pupil's request in his mind and said, "No problem, I agreed. I don't have to worry about too many debts. What's more, Chu Minghao has done me a favor. This is related to his life and death. I am willing to take a gamble."

The blood-red pupil seemed to be extremely happy. Soon, a message was transmitted, and at the same time, the blood-red pupil disappeared from Wu Xianxiao's consciousness.

"The place you wished to go to is essentially going through a closed loop in multiple senses, from fate, to cause and effect, to time and space... After one hour at the latest, even a wish made in the Arena of All Worlds will no longer be able to enter that coordinate location."

Wu Xianxiao was shocked and immediately told Wang Yihui and Beelzebub the information.

Wang Yihui was completely stunned. He murmured, "What's going on? What is a closed loop in multiple senses? And it also involves fate, cause and effect, time and space... Does this source know what a closed loop in time and space means? How is this possible..."

Beelzebub immediately said, "Believe in Him! Wu Xianxiao, we can't fight the last round anymore. You must go to the target location immediately during this wish! Unless His origin is deception, and this arena is a part of deception from beginning to end, you can completely believe what He says!"

"Chu Minghao... is probably going through some extremely dangerous and desperate situation!"

Wu Xianxiao's face also darkened. He looked at the Gaia humans who were walking out of the treatment center and said, "Okay! We won't delay any longer. Let's go to the scene where Chu Minghao is right away!"

After everyone gathered, Wu Xianxiao immediately told the others the general situation.

The rest of the people naturally had no reason to hesitate. They were willing to participate in this rescue operation and had already made up their minds to fight to the death. At this time, Wu Xianxiao would naturally continue to lead the team, and then they would use his arena credentials to collectively leave the weekend scene where the Wanjie Arena was located.

The scene in front of Wu Xianxiao turned into nothingness again, but this time the nothingness was not nothing. He saw a large number of light circles appearing right in front of him, which were shrinking layer by layer, as if covering the whole nothingness.

"Judgment in progress... Judgment completed."

"Citizen Wu Xianxiao has left the third weekend scene and is being pulled towards the target weekend scene location, and is about to..."

"Because of the irresistible appearance, entering the ..."

"…When did you come?"

"I love you too……"

Wu Xianxiao suddenly sat up from the hospital bed, and then he narrowed his eyes.

Because he saw his mother sleeping beside his bed.

The sun was shining brightly outside the window, but the three little animals, Jiujiu, Daphne and Beelzebub, who had always followed him through the weekend scenes, had disappeared.
