#272 - Endless War
#272 - Endless War
Nine Skies, No Boundaries.
The sky remained the same, an eerie blood red.
The earth was still vast and boundless, devoid of life.
The black, grotesque City of Wrongful Deaths stood silently before them.
A group of martial artists stood before this City of Wrongful Deaths.
There were many martial artists, at least several dozen.
However, each of their faces was blurred, and no one could clearly see what the others looked like.
They looked at each other, then at the grotesque city before them, and couldn't help but discuss:
"Damn it! How did I end up in this ghostly place again? Could this really be the underworld?"
"We, this group of people, inexplicably appear here every day. Could it be that the wronged souls and vengeful ghosts here have some unfinished business that needs us to complete?"
"I have heard some things, that as long as you defeat the powerful vengeful ghost inside, you can obtain a treasure!"
"But why did I hear that we have to kill each other, and only the last person standing can claim the treasure?"
"To hell with it, anyway, dying here doesn't mean you really die. Let's not kill each other first, let's kill all the demons and monsters here first!"
......
The martial artists were in lively discussion.
Every night, they would suddenly appear in this place.
At first, they thought they had died and come to the legendary underworld.
But they soon discovered that once they died in this strange place, they would return to the real world, everything as before.
As if nothing had happened.
This gradually relaxed the hearts of the initially apprehensive crowd, and they began to gradually adapt and get used to this place.
Just then.
A vague figure weakly asked:
"May I ask, everyone, what is this place?"
"Am I dead? I was originally studying late into the night, and suddenly I came to this place."
"Could it be that you are underworld officers from the underworld?"
Hearing the figure's question, the surrounding figures quickly looked towards him.
Soon, a burst of laughter erupted from the surrounding figures:
"Look, another newbie has arrived!"
"This poor wretch doesn't even know what he's gotten himself into yet?"
"Should I just chop him to death with one blow, to let him know the dangers of this world?"
"Forget it, let's explain it to him. Maybe he's a useful person who can help us solve some problems."
The surrounding figures began to explain the situation here to the newcomer, all talking at once.
Regarding this place, everyone knew very little.
Some information was told to everyone by a ghostly voice in this world.
For example, this place is called—Nine Skies, No Boundaries!
As for what relationship this so-called Nine Skies, No Boundaries has with the underworld, no one knows.
Most of the information was obtained from the mouths of some old-timers who had been here for a long time.
Those old-timers often said that this place is the underworld, with rampant evil ghosts, and that defeating the evil ghosts would grant magical rewards.
Some information was also discovered by everyone themselves.
For example, everyone knows that this place is harmless to people.
Even if you suffer serious injuries here, or even die, it will not affect the people in the real world.
Everyone also knows that no matter who comes to this place, their faces will be blurred, and no one can see the true appearance of their companions.
At the same time, everyone also knows that there is indeed a powerful, blurred figure in this City of Wrongful Deaths.
That figure only has the aura of a Sixth Rank, but his martial arts are very powerful. Even Fifth Rank martial artists among the crowd often fall under his strange blood droplet weapon.
As for why this muddled figure wants to oppose everyone, no one knows.
Most importantly.
Some real experts had joined forces to defeat the blurred figure who used the blood droplet weapon several times.
But afterwards, they encountered an even more terrifying blurred figure.
That figure only used fists.
But he was able to beat everyone into a rout.
And behind this figure, everyone had seen piles of gold and silver jewelry like mountains.
Someone, before dying, grabbed a piece of silver ingot in his hand with his last bit of strength.
But a strange thing happened.
After this person returned to the real world, he actually had a piece of silver ingot in his hand!
After he entered the Nine Skies, No Boundaries again, he told everyone about this discovery.
This immediately caused all the martial artists to boil, and they all wanted to defeat that powerful figure and seize the mountain of gold and silver.
"Alright! Brothers, get ready."
"The City of Wrongful Deaths is about to open!"
"When the time comes, we will cooperate with each other, and today we must defeat the guys here who are blocking us from getting rich!"
"If there are brothers who are familiar with each other, you can also form teams to act together."
Someone stood up and spoke loudly.
So the rest of the martial artists began to talk to each other.
Some people are willing to reveal their identities:
"I am Dong Xiong, the chief of the Black Boar Stronghold!"
"Brothers who have cooperated with me before can continue to look for me."
"If anyone wants to join my Black Boar Stronghold, you can also come to Wangyue Ridge to find me!"
After this fat figure spoke, many martial artists gathered around him.
Some people admired his reputation, and some had fought with him before, so they didn't have to worry about being backstabbed by him.
Many people also knew that this fat figure was using his real name.
Some of them had secretly investigated and found that there was indeed a group of bandits on Wangyue Ridge who had formed the Black Boar Stronghold.
A few days ago, this Black Boar Stronghold had committed a major crime!
The Black Wild Boar Fortress, together with the Green Forest giant thief "Timely Rain" Song Jiang, killed the magistrate and the county sheriff of Kaixin County, and even robbed the newly appointed prefect's team on the same day.
Rumor has it that Li Muyun, the leader of the Six Doors, was also present at the time, but he could do nothing about this group of bandits.
The Black Wild Boar Fortress gang has robbed at least several thousand stones of grain, attracting many people to join them.
Moreover, the chief of the Black Wild Boar Fortress is indeed called Dong Xiong, and he is indeed a fat man, and the martial arts he uses are indeed the same as the figure in front of him.
People who are willing to use their real identities are naturally more likely to gain the trust of many people.
However.
For most martial artists who enter this Nine Heavens Void Realm, they are unwilling to reveal their names, let alone let others discover their true identities.
"Rumble!"
A muffled sound suddenly rang out, interrupting the conversation of the crowd.
The gate of this city slowly opened.
Immediately, the martial artists became restless.
The figure who claimed to be Dong Xiong waved his broadsword:
"Brothers! Charge with me!"
He led a group of martial artists and immediately rushed into the gate.
Some of the other martial artists were anxious and followed along.
But some people were calm and slowly followed behind the crowd.
Because they knew that they would soon encounter the figure who used the Blood Droplet.
As expected.
The latest novel is first published on 69shu.com!
"Whirr!"
A burst of iron chain sounds rang out.
Immediately afterward, a black heavy object suddenly whistled over.
The edge of this black heavy object was covered with crescent-like blades, and it was spinning at high speed.
When it whistled past, the martial artists on its path were either cut to death by the rapidly rotating blades or directly smashed to death by the heavy object.
In just an instant, several martial artists turned into green smoke and dissipated in the Nine Heavens Void Realm.
Dong Xiong shouted:
"Let me do it!"
He suddenly pounced forward and firmly grasped the iron chain connecting the Blood Droplet.
His body was already fat, which caused the iron chain to be difficult to retract, which could be regarded as a disguised suppression of the Blood Droplet's attack.
"Brothers, hurry up!"
"I can hold on for a while!"
Dong Xiong shouted loudly.
The other martial artists immediately rushed in.
The next moment.
The iron chain suddenly tightened, and a tall figure quickly flew over with the iron chain.
"It's this guy!"
"Kill him!"
The martial artists drew their weapons and rushed towards the flying figure.
For a time, the two sides fought each other.
The martial arts of this figure using the Blood Droplet are indeed very high.
However, among the martial artists, in addition to Dong Xiong, there were also two unknown fifth-rank martial artists.
One of them used fists, and his style was very similar to "Iron Fist" Lei Zhen in the Green Forest, but it has not been confirmed.
The other fifth-rank martial artist has an unknown origin, and the crowd has not been able to recognize his identity.
With three fifth-rank masters, victory is not difficult.
One martial artist after another died, turning into green smoke and dissipating in the Nine Heavens Void Realm.
But for the martial artists, there was no fear at all.
Everyone knows that dying here is not really dying.
So everyone was fearless and used various unique skills to attack the enemy fiercely.
Finally.
After killing most of the martial artists, the figure using the Blood Droplet finally couldn't hold on any longer, slowly knelt on the ground, and turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared.
"We won!"
"We finally won!"
"This is the easiest time we've won. After defeating him, we are still ten people alive!"
"Next, we have a better chance of defeating the next master!"
The crowd cheered excitedly.
The three fifth-rank martial artists were naturally alive.
In addition to them, there were only some low-level martial artists alive.
They continued to move forward together, towards the central location of the City of Wrongful Deaths.
Here, there is a towering palace.
In front of the palace, there is a large square.
That fearsome master stood on this square.
The crowd had been here many times.
Even, they knew what would happen next.
The figure who claimed to be Dong Xiong began to say in a deep voice:
"Lei Zhen, are you not going to participate in the battle again?"
"Stop pretending, I have seen your boxing skills, I know you are 'Iron Fist' Lei Zhen!"
He shouted at the figure who used boxing skills.
The figure who used boxing skills replied:
"Chief Dong, this senior has been kind to me, I will not attack him."
"You fight this battle yourself."
After speaking, the figure who used boxing skills silently stood aside, with the intention of standing idly by.
The others asked the person who used boxing skills, why would the person in this Nine Heavens Void Realm be kind to him?
The person who used boxing skills remained silent, apparently not intending to answer.
But everyone had a faint guess in their hearts.
Lei Zhen's boxing style is very similar to the boxing style of the master in the square.
This also made everyone suspect that perhaps martial arts manuals could be obtained in this Nine Heavens Void Realm?
At this time.
The master in the square moved!
He raised his fists and slowly walked towards the crowd.
"Everyone be careful!"
"This guy's boxing skills are very powerful, but after fighting him these days, we should all be familiar with his moves."
"Everyone, let's go together, we must kill him this time!"
Dong Xiong shouted and rushed up first with his broadsword.
The rest of the martial artists also swarmed up.
The war started again!
