CHAPTER 736: CHAPTER 602: LET’S HAVE A REAL FIGHT!

"Issue a commission."

"Explain to me the power of ’Combat Space’ and enable me to activate this power."

"Reward:"

"Whatever you want, we can discuss."

The words had scarcely faded.

The commission appeared on the Wall of Sighs, turning into a piece of paper, then blown away by the wind, disappearing from sight.

Someone accepted the commission!

A giant bronze pillar then emerged on the Wall of Sighs.

Atop the pillar, a humanoid being sat cross-legged, holding a fishing rod, seemingly fishing.

"No need for a reward, since today’s catch has been very satisfying to me."

The figure’s voice emanated all around, as if piercing through endless void, resounded in Wu Xiaode’s heart:

"It’s good that young people dare to fight and strive, but being too sharp can cause problems."

"We’re just trying to survive, your excellency," Wu Xiaode replied.

"Of course, however—"

The voice continued:

"Those old timers in the Holy Realm, waiting for the era of Mysterious Life to come, are prepared to sacrifice you as a banner."

Wu Xiaode’s heart thumped violently.

It seemed he had angered an utterly unfathomable enemy.

But what could he do?

Was he going to back down?

Was he going to give up all his previous efforts and watch as Mysterious Life replaced everything?

Wu Xiaode took a deep breath and spoke:

"Your excellency, you telling me this—"

The other interrupted him:

"I’m just fishing. Whatever they are fighting over has nothing to do with me."

"But you helped me catch the first Mysterious prey, and I haven’t felt this satisfied in a long time."

"So I hid this reward in the choices. If you choose it, that’s up to you, not because I deliberately wanted to help you."

"Listen carefully, this power is—"

All sounds ceased.

Yet Wu Xiaode seemed to be hearing some incredible secret, or perhaps the truth of the world, standing still, listening to the silence in the void.

After several moments.

Everything on the Wall of Sighs vanished.

—The other party had completed the commission and had disconnected.

After a long while.

Wu Xiaode let out a breath, muttering to himself:

"It seems today’s catch did indeed satisfy his Excellency... hence he personally granted me this power."

The Book of the Dead flipped again to a blank page, revealing lines of text:

"Your ’anger’ has evolved into ’love, dreams, world peace,’ and now completely envelops the entire world."

"This Holy Skill will remain constant."

"Given this situation, the other party has bestowed upon you a new World Skill:"

"Infinite Identification."

"In battles you initiate, the ’Fishing Sequence’ will assist you in identifying the species of your enemies;"

"This battle is under full observation of the ’Fishing Sequence’, no other entities or powers may interfere or intervene."

"—Let’s have a one-on-one."

Wu Xiaode was momentarily stunned.

This—

This was indeed a Divine Skill!

Lucky he had thought twice and not listened to the Chaotic Sequence.

Firing guns was fun, but how could it compare to this skill?

Thinking back—

The Chaotic Sequence probably wanted to use him to advance that gun.

Perhaps it didn’t care too much about his life or death.

And this ’Fishing Sequence’ was also using him, wanting to identify the species characteristics of those Mysterious Lives through battle.

—This was a mutual benefit.

But for him, a one-on-one without any interference was actually lifesaving.

Wu Xiaode was silently pondering this when he saw the Book of the Dead flipping back to the page of the Wall of Sighs.

A line of words as sharp as ice appeared on the Wall of Sighs:

"You must resolve everything around you within three minutes, then your time to be sacrificed will come."

This was clearly a message left by that entity.

minutes!

"Little Wu."

A woman’s voice echoed.

Wu Xiaode came to his senses just as Jiang Shanglan had stood up, radiating a fighting spirit.

"Time’s almost up."

She nodded her head, gesturing for Wu Xiaode to look outside.

Outside.

The brawny man in the bar across yelled their way:

"Wait and see, boy, we’re going to kill you, and then it’s all over."

The crossing time was used up!

He and Jiang Shanglan, Shen Feixue had returned to the latest moment!

Wu Xiaode looked at the heavy rain, then at his collected Soul Crystals and gold.

—Money runs through quickly.

The number of times he could cross wasn’t many.

So save it up, and wait to cross at a critical moment.

For now.

"Ladies, listen, there’s an extremely urgent situation, and I need you to be safe," Wu Xiaode began.

"Little Wu, you decide. You’ve always been rescuing me, protecting me," Shen Feixue said.

"I’ll stay and fight," Jiang Shanglan stated decisively.

Wu Xiaode hesitated, then explained, "Not to fight. I can use the Black Flag to flee through time; right now, I need to get us out of here."

Wu Xiaode was certain of one thing:

If it came to fighting, Jiang Shanglan would never leave him and run.

After all, the enemy was Mysterious Life.

But if he was planning to flee, she would definitely listen to him and run with him.

After all, the enemy was Mysterious Life.

—She was that kind of woman.

"Not fighting them?" Jiang Shanglan asked.

"We can’t win, sister, you know how terrifying they are," Wu Xiaode said, spreading his hands.

"Alright then, I agree," Jiang Shanglan replied.

Wu Xiaode unfolded the Book of the Dead.

At his invitation, both women transformed into Shadow Followers cards and flew into the Book of the Dead.

"Which page should we stay on?" Shen Feixue asked.

"Too many people ahead," Jiang Shanglan complained, "Let’s go to the last page."

She reached out from the card, took hold of Shen Feixue, and together, they landed on the last page of the Book of the Dead.

Thump.

The book closed.

Wu Xiaode’s cold sweat streamed down.

In two minutes, he would face real danger!

But the sweat was not due to that!

"Don’t open the last page anytime soon, understand?"

He spoke seriously and sternly to the Book of the Dead.

"Understood completely," replied the Book of the Dead.

All right!

Focus on life and death first!

Pushing aside that matter, Wu Xiaode asked:

"Golden Dog, are you there?"

"Right here." Golden Teddy was squatting on a page of the Book of the Dead, now appearing before Wu Xiaode.

It scratched its neck with its hind paw, grinned exposing a mouthful of teeth, and said in a tone as if watching a play unfold:

"My ears are quite sharp—something interesting seems to have happened on the last page."

Wu Xiaode wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and solemnly said:

"A woman’s issues are no issues at all; right now, I need your help to analyze the skills on Jade Simple Mountain and filter out all the skills suitable for me, to facilitate my sacrifice—can you do that?"

"That’s exactly what I do," said Golden Teddy.

"Good, I’m relying on you."

Wu Xiaode peeled off the Holy Treasure Ring from his finger and lightly placed it on its dog head.

Golden Teddy slightly closed his eyes, beginning to read the data of Cultivation Techniques from Jade Simple Mountain.

Wu Xiaode then looked at the clock on the wall.

Only a minute and a half left!

Among the things he knew, Chaotic Sequence was unreliable, and the Fishing Sequence was the same.

In the end, his real trump card in combat skills was still the three Death Skills.

"Fury" had become worldly.

"Shadow Followers" was temporarily sealed off for the most part and could not be used, only to help those nearby seek shelter.

So—

There was only one Death Skill left: Earth Split.

This was a Capture Skill formed by the fusion of "Everday City" and "Heaven Collapse."

Now, he needed to find a way to enhance its power!

Suddenly, Golden Dog said, "Stand ready."

It flew out from the Book of the Dead, pressing the ring onto Wu Xiaode’s forehead.

"I have identified one hundred and fifty-seven boxing techniques; you need to hurry and complete the sacrifices."

"According to my observation of the Wall of Sighs, these one hundred and fifty-seven boxing techniques all match your compatibility and can most effectively enhance your level of combat."

"We’ll talk about the other techniques later."

"Please start immediately!"

Wu Xiaode sent his Divine Thought into the ring and immediately saw the one hundred and fifty-seven boxing techniques marked by Golden Dog.

He immediately commenced comprehending these techniques!

Fortunately, thanks to the Imprinting Method already set up by Tao Spirit in Jade Simple Mountain, he could directly receive all these techniques.

Wu Xiaode comprehended these techniques and could immediately sacrifice them to the Wall of Sighs.

By doing this—

"Please take note, you are continually sacrificing various strong and easily learnable boxing techniques, all dedicated to the ’Earth Split’ Fist."

Wu Xiaode held his breath motionless.

He poured all his concentration into making this happen.

After all, a tough fight was definitely coming next.

The only thing puzzling him was—

Were the Mysterious lives no longer afraid of Rain Tribulation?

Time gradually passed.

Thirty seconds later.

The rain suddenly stopped.

Across the land, all existence received a message:

Rain Tribulation has paused temporarily.

—Rest time has arrived!

After a period of rest, the next Initial Tribulation would start!

Wu Xiaode’s mind slightly cleared.

So it was rest time.

No wonder that person said he would be killed as a declaration.

He sensed the time slightly—

Sacrificing one hundred and fifty-seven boxing techniques still needed a bit more time.

However, the Rain Tribulation had already ended!

Suddenly, from all around, a series of mournful cries erupted.

Countless whispers followed:

"That person is right here."

"The one who reverses Eternal Ascension... human!"

"Kill him."

"Torment his soul."

"Hang all that he is high in the skies of the ’Pangu’ world, letting his broken flesh, his pained soul rise and fall with the sun and moon."

"To warn all humans."

"Do not oppose the Mysterious!"

"Charge!"

"Charge!"

"Charge!"

"All at once, kill him!"

Wu Xiaode slightly closed his eyes, his mind touching down on the Book of the Dead.

Golden Dog immediately said:

"It’s just a bit more time, too late now, but if you want the sacrifice to have the best effect, you need to hold on a bit longer."

"Okay," said Wu Xiaode.

The Void around him violently fluctuated as if countless Mysterious attacks were about to descend.

Suddenly, Wu Xiaode opened his eyes and said softly:

"It’s been a while since I’ve been cornered by so many."

As his words fell.

All the fluctuations in the Void stilled into silence.

"Unlimited Identification" unfolded!

From this moment on, only one opponent could fight with Wu Xiaode!

Wu Xiaode pushed open the window and looked out onto the street.

He saw the entire town filled with a dense crowd, each person glaring with bitterness firmly fixed on him.

Wu Xiaode smiled.

He simply cleared his throat and said loudly:

"You think humans are just a preamble, but let me tell you, even a tiny note among humans can blow you up one by one."

"I am that note."

"—Let’s have a one-on-one."

"No—"

"However many of you there are, that’s how many rounds we’ll have."

"Watch me blast you all."
