Chapter 60: Chapter 47: The Impassable Wall of Sighs for All Beings

A man covered in tattoos was the first to step out of line, drawing a boomerang and hurling it with all his might at Wu Xiaode.

The boomerang was wrapped in a layer of blue glow, making a whooshing sound as it flew through the air, clearly something extraordinary.

Wu Xiaode was about to draw his saber when suddenly gunfire rang out beside his ear.

Sparks flew off the boomerang as it was hit by seven or eight bullets, sending it flying back the way it came.

The next moment.

Two people appeared beside Wu Xiaode.

A thin, tall young man chewing gum, holding a submachine gun, was changing the magazine and said with a smile,

"Ganging up on one guy? Our club won’t stand for that sort of thing."

The other man, burly and with a gold chain around his neck, nodded at Wu Xiaode and said in a low voice,

"Butterfly Dance."

As soon as he finished speaking.

Out of the void, a dense swarm of flames suddenly appeared, hovering in midair and taking on the form of butterflies.

These butterflies, made manifest by flame, were quite beautiful. As soon as they appeared, they filled the sky like rosy clouds, giving the scene the feel of a dream.

The burly man adjusted his sunglasses and uttered a single word:

"Fall."

In an instant, tens of thousands of flame butterflies charged at the four others atop the bone dragon.

Boom!

Flames soared into the sky.

The sight was so spectacular that the number of viewers on the live stream instantly exceeded 30 million!

The number of new registrations kept climbing.

Wu Xiaode didn’t look at the data just then, he turned to the two people beside him instead.

— They had appeared in the video when he first joined the S-class club!

Members of his club.

They were here to fight alongside him!

Wu Xiaode was about to say something when a woman’s voice came from behind,

"Is the live stream important to you?"

Wu Xiaode turned around, only to see a vague humanoid shadow.

— The owner of the S-class club!

She was also referred to as the team leader by club members.

"Yes, for certain special reasons, I need this live stream. I hope you can understand," Wu Xiaode whispered.

"I’ve seen it all," the leader said.

"What?" Wu Xiaode did not understand.

"Those people released the bone dragon and were also after your sister. Luckily, the royal family came to her rescue. Otherwise, her fate could have been uncertain," the team leader said.

Wu Xiaode was silent, just looking ahead.

— Those people seemed to have used some magic, struggling desperately to fend off the rampant fire butterflies.

"You live stream to show certain specific people, so they won’t dare target your sister in the future? And maybe make some money on the side?" the shadow asked with interest.

"Leader, you’re exactly right," Wu Xiaode nodded.

— You’ve got full marks for reading comprehension, team leader!

"So what’s next? What do you plan to do?" the shadow asked.

"As for the people targeting Xia Huilan, I don’t plan to let them off," Wu Xiaode said.

The shadow fell silent for a moment before reaching out and taking a yellow, long strip of paper, whispering,

"Grand Response, Heavenly Official’s Gift."

Whoosh—

The long strip of paper burned up rapidly.

Almost instantly, Wu Xiaode suddenly felt an unprecedented strength fill his body.

The Book of the Dead by his side opened, displaying a line of icy crystal characters:

"You have received an excessive supplement of soul power."

"Your current soul power is: 19/8."

The shadow spoke softly, "You’ve consumed a lot before, but I’ve replenished your soul power for you. Use your saber skill."

The man with the gold chain also said, "You’re doing a live stream, so we can’t go all out, but since you have such a special request, you should make the move."

They stepped back to avoid being caught on camera.

Wu Xiaode was somewhat moved by this gesture.

Theoretically, each individual’s abilities are a secret, the fewer people know, the better to protect oneself.

To think the club would accommodate him like this.

Not only did they fend off enemies for him, but they also helped complete his live stream!

Fortunately, he had just learned that particular set of saber skills.

Wu Xiaode handed his phone to a thin, tall young man wearing a cap, asking him to focus the camera on him.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I’ll be using a variety of weapons in this play, because there are quite a few fight scenes."

"Now, I’ll show you all how people are killed."

In front of him, the flames surrounding those men dissipated.

They looked somewhat disheveled,

Wu Xiaode placed his hand on his long saber, chanting softly, "May the king hide beneath the spring; his flesh decays and bones disintegrate."

Clang!

The long saber was drawn and held casually in his hand, dancing through the air and drawing various lengths of golden light.

The next moment.

Wu Xiaode suddenly stopped and held his saber up to examine.

Cracks covered the blade—

Crash!

The entire saber shattered, the high wind scattering the broken pieces, which caught the sunlight and gradually vanished from sight.

At the other end atop the bone dragon, those men had already exploded into a blood mist that surged into the sky, scattered away by the wind.

Though the saber had broken, the attack had nonetheless been mostly successful.

They were instantly reduced to mincemeat and blood mist, which rose with the wind along with the shattered blade pieces.

Wu Xiaode sighed and faced the camera, "Did you see that? This is the special effect we created. How about it, not bad, right?"

The number of likes on the screen began to break historical records.

"An accident? No, it’s all special effects, and we do have a script, after all."

"For example, this saber—"

Wu Xiaode thought for a moment and explained, "Actually, it’s called the Earth Blade. The reason it shattered is that it has cut through too many impure things throughout history."

"It has a twin named Heavenly, the Heavenly Blade."

"We will go to other worlds to seek that blade in the future."

"Only that blade can repair the Earth Blade."

"What do you guys think about this plot?"

He took the phone, nodded at the three people from the S-class club to express his gratitude.

The three smiled.

Now that the situation had been resolved, it was no longer necessary to remain here.

The leader made a gesture.

Instantly, the three disappeared from where they stood, leaving the spine of the bone dragon.

Now.

Only Wu Xiaode was left alone.

He glanced at the Book of the Dead during a spare moment.

million likes.

And still increasing.

Perfect.

Lines of ice crystal letters exuding coldness quietly emerged on the pages of the book:

"You have received enough praise and admiration."

"The second wall, the insurmountable Wall of Sighs, has now been fully unlocked."

"You may connect with this wall through the Book of the Dead at any time."

Wu Xiaode’s heart pounded.

—This was the key to defeating the One-eyed Giant.

He turned and walked to the other end of the bone dragon, about to turn off the live stream, when a new line of ice crystal letters appeared on the page:

"Remember, whenever you want to use the insurmountable Wall of Sighs, you will need the admiration and respect of the people."

—Still need to gather likes.

Wu Xiaode moved back to his original spot and smiled at the camera, "Bros, if there’s anything else you want to know, just ask me directly."

"Oh gosh, how embarrassing, look at this, ah, another rocket gift for me, thanks, my dude."

"What? The other main characters?"

"Well... it’s my turn on screen right now, you’ll see the others later."

"Yes, it’s a big production."

"Sorry, but your idol—probably won’t be in this movie."

"Because to be able to shoot at such heights, you understand?"

Wu Xiaode performed a backflip, then ran a few steps forward and leaped with force.

Just as he seemed about to jump off the back of the bone dragon, he reached out, grabbed a protruding bone tightly, and swayed back and forth in the air, swung by the wind.

With his other hand holding the phone, he smiled at the camera:

"Any idols willing to do this kind of performance, I warmly welcome them to act."

There was a moment of silence on the screen.

Then, a barrage of comments exploded.

"6666666",

"Wife, come out and see God",

"This is literally like Sun Wukong’s leap into the Water Curtain Cave!",

"Big bro, do you do endorsements?"

"Bro, can you get up and talk? Can you?"

"..."

The likes and rockets on the live stream continued to grow explosively.

This was the source of power!

Wu Xiaode was overjoyed, did a gold-hook upside-down stunt, and sat back on the spine of the bone dragon.

"When will this movie be released?"

"Ah, that’s a difficult question, let’s talk about something else first."

"Hang on, I need to take a call."

"Hello?"

"Landing... the emergency landing trigger is cockpit damage? At the dragon’s head? Got it."

Following Xia Ni’s instructions, Wu Xiaode walked to the dragon’s head and struck it fiercely with his fist.

Crash!

The dragon’s head broke open, revealing the cockpit inside.

Empty.

Clearly, to avoid being caught, this time the flight of the bone dragon was on autopilot.

More likely still—

These people were also afraid of provoking the bone dragon.

Beep beep beep!

Inside the cockpit, alarms blared loudly.

The bone dragon immediately began to descend, flying toward the outskirts of the Capital.

Seizing the moment.

"Okay, that’s the end of this live stream."

"Thank you to all the sci-fi enthusiasts for your support; thank you, everyone."

"See you next time."

Wu Xiaode put away his phone, took off his earpiece, and stood atop the dragon’s head, quietly opening the Book of the Dead.

In an instant, the insurmountable Wall of Sighs quietly appeared before his eyes.

A dazzling point of light emerged on the deep black wall.

Wu Xiaode lightly touched the light point.

The light point unfolded, materializing into a small, bright icon, depicting a decaying skull with a budding flower in its eye socket.

Next to the icon, lines of cold ice crystal letters appeared:

"Breaking through the boundaries of all beings, you have come to the Dead Land, seeking powers that all living creatures are unaware of."

"With the plow of countless admiration and respect, in the silent Land of Death, you have unearthed three abilities and are qualified to choose one."
