CHAPTER 673: CHAPTER 543 LITTLE WU AND THE FAIRY’S CONSPIRACY (PART 1)

Let time back up a little.

Jiang Shanglan left the West Queen Mother Temple to handle the affairs of the dominance battle.

Wu Xiaode had just put down the phone and was preparing to look for Satan, hoping Satan could provide a hidden place for Gjestastav to strike against the seal.

He stepped out of the temple door when he suddenly remembered something.

Now,

all his skills were sealed, and only his equipment was usable.

Was it really only the equipment?

Moreover, having transformed into the Purgatory Demon King, he needed a lot of groundwork to accomplish his task.

So, what else did he have at his disposal?

Wu Xiaode retraced his steps, returned to the altar, and after a deep contemplation, placed item after item on it.

Watch: Only Hand Can Cover the Sky.

This was a treasure for observing the Queen Mother of the West, unavailable for use now.

Black boxing gloves.

Battle gloves made by Zhao Zhibing for him could emit flames, not usable here either.

Tch.

Is there really nothing else I can use?

Wu Xiaode felt around and pulled out a token, a deep blue World Stone, and a bracelet.

The token was a passage token from the sin prison’s bottommost layer of the future era.

The World Stone was a Transmission Stone for returning to the Shangmo family.

The bracelet was for teleporting to Kunlun Mountain, but unfortunately, he had already returned to the "Virtual World," and unless he completed the tasks on the Naihe Bridge yet again, he no longer had time to return to Kunlun Mountain.

However, now his skills were sealed, making the task on Naihe Bridge too risky.

— All unusable.

Unconvinced, Wu Xiaode continued to search when he suddenly found a small storage box.

This was a gift from the top benefactor during his days of live streaming.

Lines of ice crystal text emerged next to the storage box:

"Desmark’s Love Letter Storage Box."

"Rare, curiously crafted object."

"This curious object possesses the following attributes:"

"Indestructible: No force in the vast world of living beings can destroy this object;"

"Transmit Love: Pay 10 points of Soul Power to let this iron box reach the person you want it to reach, and it can be retrieved at any time;"

"Storage: This wooden box has about a thousand square meters of storage space."

This is a great item!

Perfect for logistics, too bad I didn’t use it much since I rarely live streamed.

— What use does it have in the current situation?

Wu Xiaode fell into deep thought.

A few moments later, he suddenly thought of something,

"Wait a second..."

"... besides equipment, apparently I can also call for help."

Muttering to himself, Wu Xiaode’s gaze suddenly fell on the fruits offered on the altar.

Jiang Shanglan was particular about his tasks; the fruits offered to the statue of God were fresh and of high quality, perfect for use!

Wu Xiaode directly poured all the fruits in front of the statues into the storage box, and then patted the box, saying:

"Go, send this to Chris, tell her I need her help."

The box flashed and disappeared.

It wasn’t long before,

a black cat suddenly appeared on the transverse beam of the temple, looking down at Wu Xiaode.

"Hi, long time no see," Wu Xiaode greeted.

"It’s been a while since I had fruits; thank you, our diet has gotten more balanced," the black cat said, shaking off its fur.

— It was indeed Chris’s alias.

She seemed not at all surprised by the fact that Wu Xiaode had turned into the Purgatory Demon King, but scrutinized his long hair as if she were very interested in his hair color.

"Don’t mention it; I called you here because I have something to discuss," Wu Xiaode said.

"What’s the matter?" the black cat asked.

"I remember our Ning Shen Temple’s way of doing things is—"

"Swap the heavens!" Chris said excitedly.

Wu Xiaode nodded.

Yes, the peach tree had also mentioned that the tree spirits of Ning Shen Temple could help him shield from heaven’s gaze and swap the heavens.

The last time they swapped the heavens, the fairies had assisted him in pretending to be Arian, successfully infiltrating the interiors of the Destruction Council.

This time—

Wu Xiaode pondered while speaking:

"I’ve decided to do a few things... I might need the help of your fairy clan."

"Less talk, you’re the master of Ning Shen Temple, the master of the peach tree, it’s right for us to help," Chris said, thumping her chest jovially.

"Thanks, then, let it be like this—"

Wu Xiaode reached behind and took out the Black Flag, and also took off the Holy Treasure Ring, placing them together on Desmark’s Love Letter Storage Box, pushing it toward the black cat.

"Wow, these are fun items,"

the black cat said, joyously wagging its tail.

Wu Xiaode hesitated for a moment upon hearing this.

Fairies—

seemed unreliable in their actions.

But actually, many solutions had been found in their unreliability.

They seemed to have a very good compatibility with him.

He also had a slightly different way of handling things from others.

"That settles it, then!"

Wu Xiaode squatted on the ground, explaining his arrangements to Chris one by one.

Chris kept nodding.

"Alright, you can go now," Wu Xiaode finally said.

"Leave it to us, don’t worry," Chris replied.

After saying that, Chris gathered the three treasures from the ground and was about to leave.

Suddenly, she turned her head back, eyeing Wu Xiaode with suspicion.

"Why have you been sealed with so much power?"

Chris couldn’t help but ask.

Wu Xiaode then recounted what had happened.

Circling around him, Chris shook her head, "This won’t be easy to handle. The Causality Law seal from the sacrifice of a myriad of souls – unless there’s something that can assist, I can’t help you."

Wu Xiaode waved his hand:

"I still have a Shadow Follower hidden in the last page of the book, who was extremely lucky to have escaped the seal—so I can still borrow some power from the Dragon Clan, don’t worry. You go ahead with those tasks."

But Chris sat on a wooden box and didn’t move. She looked at Wu Xiaode for a while, then suddenly raised the Black Flag, slipped the Holy Treasure Ring onto the flagpole, and waved it forcefully:

"Flag, oh flag, show me what happened at that time."

— Demon Art took effect!

With a wave of the Black Flag, some gold disappeared from the Holy Treasure Ring, but in the Void, the scene of Wu Xiaode battling the Purgatory Demon King appeared.

Wu Xiaode was startled.

He knew that the Black Flag could reverse time.

But he hadn’t expected that Chris could use Demon Art to operate the Black Flag and turn past events into spectral visions.

— Perhaps fairies always have a unique way of using treasures compared to other races.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to create bizarre objects like the ivy brooch.

Chris watched those scenes intently.

Suddenly, she murmured softly, "So it’s a word spell-type Divine Skill... We need to find an entry point to use it..."

The scenes of their fight kept appearing until, at last—

The Purgatory Demon King, wielding the Book of the Dead, flipped through it furiously as he shouted:

"By the sacrifice of the myriad souls of purgatory, I gather power unto me and seal all your skills!"

Wu Xiaode kept losing his abilities.

"All your power is now sealed. From now on, savor the helplessness of mortals," the Demon King said gleefully.

"Hey, you’ve lost, isn’t this cheating?"

At that time, Wu Xiaode said unwillingly.

Chris held her breath, her gaze shifting swiftly and fixating on the Purgatory Demon King.

Just then, the Purgatory Demon King responded, "Lost? It was merely your opportunistic moment... Now that you’ve lost all your abilities, I’d like to see how you deal with what’s to come."

Chris’s eyes lit up.

She stomped the Black Flag into the ground and declared: "The Demon King has admitted..."

The scene abruptly halted.

"Admitted what?" Wu Xiaode asked, puzzled.

"By not contradicting your accusation of ’isn’t this cheating,’ we can take it she implicitly agreed she was cheating— that’s why word spells have to be precise," Chris explained excitedly.

"But, what does it matter if she admitted she was cheating?" Wu Xiaode shrugged.

"No one can cheat in front of us fairies! This is our domain; others can only take the sidelines!" Chris declared loudly.

She leaped lightly into the air and snatched the Book of the Dead from mid-air, slamming it to the ground.

"Mrow, seal oh seal, dare you compete with me in cheating?"

The Black Cat said in a threatening tone.

Boom—

A sacrificial array of black and red runes surged up from the Book of the Dead.

A billion mournful wails emanated from the array.

At the sight of this sacrificial array, the Black Cat’s fur bristled, its claws protruded, sharp and menacing, and it pounced, clawing furiously.

The cries of agony from the array grew even louder.

While tearing and biting, the Black Cat shouted:

"Little Wu, what’s the ability you are most deeply connected with? Call it, it might escape the seal."

The ability I’m most deeply connected with?

Aside from my foundational ability, the Book of the Dead—

It’s the Causality Law I conceived in Purgatory and the Eternal Night Tower—my breakthrough that transcended all professionals and reached the summit of the tower, calling upon all spirits of the eternal night to help, that very unique Causality Law!

In a moment of enlightenment, Wu Xiaode suddenly declared:

"Come forth, my Causality Law, I am your creator!"

Within the sacrificial array, the Book of the Dead suddenly flashed a fierce bright light.

This light flickered on the surface of the Book of the Dead, seemingly anxious, searching for a way out of the seal.

The Black Cat tore at the array forcefully, shouting loudly:

"This is your profession’s foundational skill! Call it by your professional title, only then can it find you!"

Taking a deep breath, Wu Xiaode bellowed:

"Return to me, my skill, I am the three hundred ninety-nine million, ninety-nine thousand, nine hundred ninety-ninth professional, and my name is all mine; don’t you steal it, I am Wu Xiaode, I love you all, muah!"

The air suddenly became silent.

The Black Cat was stunned.

Even the sealing sacrificial array paused for a moment.

But that flickering light seemed to sense the direction to follow, shooting out of the sealing array and landing on Wu Xiaode.

A line of ice crystal small characters emerged:

"With the help of a fairy, your professional foundational skill ’If you can’t beat them, join them’ has broken free from the seal and returned to you."
