Chapter 116: Chapter 91 Fog Shadow (Extra for Alliance Hierarch ArchQua!)

"Enough praise has been collected to practice the Slaughter Spear Skill,"

"Would you like to learn it?"

"Learn!" Wu Xiaode silently said in his heart.

The next instant.

Battle scenes began to emerge in his mind.

"Since you have accumulated a lot of praise, this practice will directly advance your comprehension of the Spear Skill to a divine level."

"Slaughter Spear Skill."

"Continuous technique, comprising three styles."

"You have mastered the first style: Block;"

"This move must block the enemy’s attack."

"You have mastered the second style: Lifting;"

"Floating Skill, must cause uncontrollable floating."

"You have mastered the third style: Rain."

"Thirty-six consecutive stabs, an unstoppable force."

Excellent cultivation technique!

Wu Xiaode praised, stood up, and walked to the edge of the training ground, pulling a spear from the weapon rack.

"Elder Qian, watch closely, these three moves go like this."

He performed the three moves effortlessly without exerting Soul Power.

Qian Mingkui was stunned.

Wu Xiaode wanted to show off again when suddenly the Book of the Dead flew toward him, opened up in front of him, and revealed lines of text:

"Special Reminder:"

"Sacrificing five techniques can upgrade the ’Illusion’ ability of the Demon Mist by one level;"

"Sacrificing ten techniques can upgrade the ’Dirty Magic Hand’ ability of the Demon Mist by one level."

Wu Xiaode fell into thought.

It is indeed true that one cannot have too many skills.

He also wanted to learn many skills to deal with various situations.

But in actual combat, what truly surprises everyone were the capabilities listed in the Book of the Dead.

Even the Death God coveted the Book of the Dead!

Even that Angel could not detect him through the Demon Mist!

Thus, in the face of the skills from the Death Realm, all others could be forsaken.

"Alright, you can experience the rest slowly on your own."

Wu Xiaode smiled and placed the spear back on the weapon rack.

Sacrifice.

He silently said in his heart.

Immediately, the Book of the Dead displayed lines of ice crystal text:

"You have sacrificed the three styles of the Slaughter Spear Skill to the ’Illusion’ of the Demon Mist."

"Since these three techniques are quite powerful, they can be counted as five typical Awakener skills."

"Your Demon Mist can now be upgraded."

"Current ability: Illusion."

"Upgraded to: Fog Shadow."

"Fog Shadow: Has higher concealment abilities than Illusion and allows your body to briefly turn into mist, lasting 3 seconds, with a spell interval of one hour."

Three styles of spear techniques counted as five techniques.

This was to be expected, after all, Zhao Zhibing’s multiple arrows were also overcounted previously.

Now ’Illusion’ has upgraded to ’Fog Shadow’!

This is a very timely upgrade, especially since tonight’s situation will be worse.

It would be good to get the skills to upgrade ’Dirty Magic Hand’ by one level as well.

But that would require ten techniques!

Where to get these techniques?

Wu Xiaode’s gaze passed over Qian Mingkui, Zhao Junyu, Lu Renyi, and Little Shi.

He couldn’t help but sigh.

—Forget it, better find someone else.

"Elder Wu, speaking of that film company business, did you join as well?" Qian Mingkui asked.

"Ah, yes, when unusual events occur, we need to face them, and if things escalate, we just claim it’s for a film," Wu Xiaode casually said.

"Can that keep it secret?" Qian Mingkui asked worriedly.

Zhao Junyu smiled and said, "Little Wu’s first live broadcast was fighting a Mobile Battle Armor, witnessed only by a group of beggars, who were all killed by another person, so no problem there."

"The second one involved a bone dragon—The bone dragon was also a mechanical creation, and I took away a critical component from it, so for anyone seeing it, it’s just a mechanical flyer," Wu Xiaode said.

"What if a real monster appears and is seen by the common people?" Qian Mingkui asked.

"We do have monster modelers and a lot of strong special effects support, some of which have already been released to create real confusion," Zhao Junyu said.

"How long can you keep this up?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"Only until a large number of monsters descend, then it will immediately be evident—we expect that to happen soon," Zhao Junyu said.

"What about Skull Island overseas?"

"It has disappeared temporarily, no one knows where they went."

Zhao Junyu sighed again, "This year’s crops haven’t been harvested yet; if chaos erupts, it’s really worrying."

Everyone fell silent.

Qian Mingkui had seen a city overwhelmed by poisonous snakes and knew how desperate the future could be.

Food...

Not just food, but also weapons, medical supplies, soldiers, shelters, and so forth; everything required time to prepare.

And all that required societal stability.

"If we can ensure peace for one day, we just ensure peace for one day," he sighed.

"Exactly," Zhao Junyu said.

At that moment, Wu Xiaode’s phone suddenly buzzed in his pocket.

Upon opening it, he saw a message from Zhao Zhibing:

"There’s only one Li Kunlun in the whole country who is currently in his first year of high school; do you want to visit him?"

"Certainly," Wu Xiaode replied.

Zhao Zhibing sent an address and added:

"Someone is coming to pick you up shortly; I’ll arrange a few more people for you. You hurry up with the task."

"Alright, thanks, Princess,"

The chat ended.

Someone knocked on the door outside the martial arts hall.

Lu Renyi went to open the door and saw several men in black clothing enter, saying:

"Mr. Wu Xiaode, your private jet has been arranged."

Wu Xiaode stood up and said, "Jun Yu, you discuss the details with him; I need to take care of an urgent matter."

"This is the first person to befriend demons; what could be more important than what’s before you?" Zhao Junyu asked.

"It’s quite important too," Wu Xiaode smiled.

In the parallel world, that underground site on the island was no longer accessible.

After all, an Angel with wings stood guard there.

Thus—

The murdered Li Kunlun was the only gain he had obtained from there.

If Li Kunlun were to awaken, he’d first regain his memory.

This was a method he’d reserved for himself.

He surely knew many things—

About the sin prison, and the matters beyond it!

...

Noon.

Dongjin City.

Second High School.

A car was slowly moving across the campus.

"Target located at the school basketball court, playing basketball," said the man driving in black.

"Understood."

Wu Xiaode rolled down the window glass and looked toward the basketball court.

It was lunchtime, and there weren’t many people on the court, just a three-on-three game of half-court.

The young man was there on the court.

—It was Li Kunlun, who had been captured in a parallel world.

He had been an emperor of a high-level human civilization, but after losing to the Star Spirit Civilization, he was thrown into this world to live as an ordinary person who had forgotten everything.

In three more years.

He would be captured and killed.

Wu Xiaode silently observed the young man.

"Three points, let it go in!" the young man shouted loudly.

Swish!

The basketball cleanly entered the net.

"Haha, you guys have such gloomy faces, you could obviously make money as beggars on the street, yet you insist on challenging me, still too tender, darlings," the youth began to trash-talk.

The other students retorted irritably.

The more they cursed, the more fired up the young man got, snatching the ball and swiftly breaking past a player to score with a layup.

"How can you be so weak, I could beat you teamed up with my grandma."

The young man taunted as he turned around.

"Stop boasting, your grandma can’t even play basketball," a classmate retorted.

"She could be dancing square dance on the side, and I’d still win," the young man said expressionlessly.

Wu Xiaode kept listening silently.

What a troublemaker this kid is.

I feel like getting on the court and playing against him myself.

It’s just trash-talk, right?

Try dealing with my dirty magic hand then.

After much thought, Wu Xiaode made up his mind.

Too many Awakeners had died, it was now a situation where only one in ten survived.

If a massive onslaught of demons occurred, without enough Awakeners to respond, then the world would directly face Doomsday.

One more person means more power!

Not to mention, he knew plenty of valuable information.

"Qian Mingkui was jolted awake by me, perhaps he could also bring me some surprises..." Wu Xiaode muttered to himself for encouragement.

He said to the man in black beside him, "Get everyone out."

"Okay," the man in black took out his phone and quietly said, "Plan one, execute."

The next second.

Many people’s phones on the court began to ring.

"Hello? A delivery?"

"Mom?"

"Grandpa?"

"Uncle, what’s up?"

"Hello, teacher—what? The whole class is gathering? During lunch?"

The crowd dispersed in a rush.

Only the young man stayed, standing alone on the court.

He shrugged his shoulders and continued shooting baskets.

Wu Xiaode got out of the car and walked to the edge of the basketball court, watching the young man shoot a few times, then called out, "Hey, hello, could you add one more?"

As soon as he finished speaking—

Swish!

Wu Xiaode disappeared from his spot.

The youth clutched the basketball, stunned in place.

"Gone..."

He muttered incredulously.

Elsewhere.

In the mirror world of the Death Demon Cave.

Wu Xiaode found himself turned into a man riding a warhorse.

"Ah! Damn it, how did I utter the spell," he lamented, looking toward the Corpse Mountain deep within the Demon Cave.

His head ached.

A wave of unfamiliar memories and knowledge flooded into his mind.

"...So that’s how it is..."

Last night, in the parallel world, he had pondered a matter.

When he first appeared in the Death Demon Cave, the Giant clearly seemed to know what everyone was thinking.

But later, when he slapped him, the Giant didn’t know.

Was the Magic canceled?

Or did the duration of the Magic expire?

Then, who could enable the One-eyed Giant to perform the Mind Reading Technique?

It doesn’t regard humans as anything but ants, right?

Now.

The Demon Armor had transported him directly to this battle.

Wu Xiaode reached out a hand.

A green spear instantly appeared out of the Void, which he grasped.

Yes.

He was a Holy Witch Hunter.

This profession, hailing from a world full of rainforests and barbaric creatures, was among the best at hunting in the world.

His spear was blessed by some extremely ancient Spiritual Objects, capable of unleashing a Curse with a certain probability when hurling the spear, instantly killing the target!

The stronger the target, the higher this probability.

That was why the One-eyed Giant had used the Mind Reading Technique!

—Since I’m here, let’s play a game with the One-eyed Giant.

After all, I’m much stronger now!
