Resisting temptation makes you stronger? I'm going to build a base and cultivate martial arts.

Chapter 73 What happened here?

The six members of the White Wolf gang did not attack immediately.

Almost simultaneously, everyone turned their heads to look at the urban village buildings behind the hotel.

As if by some special division, a dark alleyway directly separates the two areas.

"Is that the forbidden zone of death?" White Wolf asked.

"Yes! Once you cross that line, death could strike at any moment." Ji Huaiguang said solemnly, then turned to the others. "What? Do you want to try going in?"

"Get out!" White Wolf cursed, then added, "In the worst-case scenario, if an enemy steps into the alley—everyone stop the pursuit."

Everyone nodded.

Even from this distance, everyone could feel a chilling aura, like the gaze of an abyss.

That thing inside is at least a fourth or fifth rank being.

Only someone looking to die would go in.

After glancing around a few times, Li Qi looked at the large cluster of houses surrounding the forbidden zone of death: "I wonder how many heretics and underground cultivators are hiding around here—with the forbidden zone around, it's hard to keep the security good, isn't it?"

"Let's leave that to the higher-ups! Let's focus on the mission first!"

""

White Wolf looked towards the hotel entrance.

The six people watched for a while, but the dense swarm of insects did not fly over, as if it were a trap waiting for the prey to rush in.

White Wolf sighed, "These snakes, insects, and rats are ordinary, but they're truly disgusting. Luckily, I exchanged for these things—Lu Kui, go!"

He opened the suitcase he was carrying, revealing a can-shaped backpack inside.

"Damn it, I'm a cultivator!" Lu Kui sighed.

Even so, he still obediently picked up his backpack.

The group quickly helped Lü Kui adjust the pipes, and then White Wolf handed over the transmitter.

Lu Kui took it and, following the temporary training he received in the warehouse last night, first activated the first safety device, and then pressed the orange button.

"Tick-tock!"

A flash of electricity, and a small flame shot out from the muzzle of the gun.

The wild animals and insects a dozen meters away were a little restless, as if they wanted to pounce, but were also a little afraid.

"I've completely disgraced the cultivators—this thing should be useful, right?" Lu Kui gripped the gun with both hands, leaning forward as much as possible.

The white wolf stood protectively to the side: "The Beast King's spiritual power certainly wouldn't attach itself to this trash—otherwise, even a third-tier beast would be crippled. Spray it out, young man!"

"#!" Lu Kui cursed, then slammed the trigger.

"Pfft!"

At the muzzle, viscous black flammable liquid was pumped out by air pressure and then ignited, forming a raging flame.

The recoil was so strong that Lü Kui almost fell backward, but fortunately, Bai Lang and Ji Huaiguang managed to hold him down in time.

The effects of the firepower were also extremely terrifying.

Almost instantly, wherever the flames reached, all carbon-based life forms turned to ashes.

Moreover, the heat was intense, and even flying insects that weren't within range were falling down with a "rustling" sound.

The mouse hiding behind wanted to go around it.

But Lü Kui simply adjusted the angle and burned them all to ashes.

There were also large wild dogs mixed in with the flames, trying to use their size to force their way through the fire.

But before they could run halfway, their internal organs were burned through, and they couldn't even utter a whimper before collapsing.

The six people controlled the distance and direction, moving forward little by little.

Soon, all the liquid in the bottle was sprayed out.

The muzzle locks automatically.

The open space in front of the hotel was now a scene resembling hell.

A strong smell of burning permeated the air.

The charred corpses were stuck to the ground by the viscous burning liquid, forming large patches of black carbonized sludge.

"I must say, firearms are quite powerful." Lu Kui deactivated all safety devices and hurriedly removed his belongings.

"It's still a bit lacking for cultivators. Unless there's a way to trap the enemy, it's not possible to deplete his spiritual power in this way."

""

The white wolf watched the direction of the hotel warily.

According to intelligence, there should be dozens of staff members inside the hotel.

But all the things blocking the way outside were dead, and the hostages still hadn't managed to break through.

Inside the lobby of the presidential suite on the 18th floor of the Lijing Hotel.

The ceiling was teeming with all sorts of poisonous insects.

The floor was covered with countless brightly colored venomous snakes.

They were clearly different species, yet they moved around very harmoniously, simply filling the floor with their presence.

A dozen tigers lay flat in the middle, forming a large, furry bed.

Above them, three men and five women were rolling around.

At first glance, it looks like the place of some strange cult.

Suddenly, a man emerged from the mass of flesh: "Boss, more cultivators are coming—#! Flamethrower! Are you even cultivators anymore?"

'

"This is the third batch already, how come there are still cultivators coming, and they don't care about the dignity of cultivators at all. Are we really going to enter the forbidden zone of death?" Another man scratched his chest and quickly got up as well.

Looking out the window, the two could only see scorch marks all over the ground.

"They're all shameless. They wouldn't actually dare to burn this hotel down, would they?" A man turned around.

"What are you afraid of? The coalition government's human rights bill is watching!" A lazy voice came from the crowd.

The man was still uneasy: "What if they bring a flamethrower up with them?"

"Then we'll all die together! Don't you have any common sense? Using a flamethrower indoors?" A lazy voice yawned and asked, "How many people are down there?"

"Six!" the man answered quickly.

A lazy voice chuckled: "With so many people, they must be newcomers at the second or even first tier."

""

"It seems the Administration Bureau is truly out of people!"

'

"Coincidentally, my abilities have also reached a bottleneck—if I want to go further, I have to start controlling cultivators."

"It seems that God is going to grant my wish!"

'

"Everyone, get ready!"

"This time, don't let them get away!"

"I must at least keep one; I want to mold his soul into my own shape, little by little!"

"How can such a trashy coalition government rule Earth? When I become the Human King, I will rule over all other races!"

"oh!

""

The men's eyes turned red, and they shouted wildly.

The six members of the White Wolf gang abandoned their now-useless flamethrowers, took a few quick steps across the scorching ground, and walked to the hotel's main entrance.

Inside the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, there is a scene of tranquility and peace.

The security guard stood by the entrance, while the receptionist looked at her computer behind the counter.

Dozens of guests were eating and drinking in the lobby.

There was even a woman wearing a bright red dress, sitting in front of a grand piano playing a light and cheerful melody.

Everything is in good order.

If I didn't know, I would have thought it was open for business as usual.

White Wolf exchanged a glance with his companion, pushed the door open with his sword sheath, went inside, and roared.

"Cultivator Management Bureau! A suspected Beast King-level underground cultivator is hiding in this hotel. Do you have anything to say?"

The other five people filed in, scanning their surroundings with wary eyes.

Although everyone in front of me seems to be under control.

But as the side of justice, we can't just kill everyone we see.

We can only inquire about the situation first.

I initially thought these people would maintain their "duties" like puppets.

Unexpectedly, everyone from the security guards to the receptionist rushed over, crying and shouting, as if they were prisoners who had been granted amnesty.

Even the pianist in the red dress followed behind, stumbling and holding up her skirt with both hands.

"Clang!"

'

White Wolf drew his sword immediately.

The gleaming blade startled everyone, causing them to freeze in place.

"Now, tell me, what happened here?"
