Chapter 1026
The Yellow Turban Warrior Who Could Be Destroyed with a Laugh
"That's not right. Don't forget that this ruin has been tampered with."
"And the people who created this ruin also knew that someone would tamper with it."
"What would you do if you were in my shoes?"
Upon hearing Chu Xuan's somewhat strange question, Zhang Jie glanced at Li Xiao and then rubbed his chin.
"I want to leave something good for future generations, but after I leave it, someone will tamper with it and turn it into something bad, or something even more dangerous."
"Then I might as well just not keep it."
"No, no, the reality is that they stayed."
"So there must be some special case or... well, I can't think of one."
Zhang Jie looked at Li Xiao.
Li Xiao clutched her hair in her hand.
"If it was left behind, the first possibility is that the person who left the ruins had some kind of backup plan, perhaps a prop, or something like a switch."
"Once we find this thing, no matter what the ruins look like, it will protect future generations from danger, and it won't be an easy way to pass through."
"At the very least, it can eliminate passive actions that might turn into so-called bad things."
"The second possibility is that the person who entered this ruin possesses absolute power."
"This strength is enough to wipe out everything."
"Including the tricks played by those fifth-order saints."
"The second option is too uncertain, so I prefer the first possibility."
Chu Xuan looked at Li Xiao and said:
"So all we need to do is prepare strictly according to what the side quest says."
"Whether facing the Yellow Turban Warriors or the Buddha statue, just think of yourself as an ordinary member of the Reincarnation Squad."
"Leave the rest to those cultivators."
"To be able to develop the path of cultivation to the level of a saint is beyond our imagination..."
"Take me back! The experiment with the cultivation system isn't over yet!"
Li Xiao nodded.
After Chu Xuan disappeared, Li Xiao couldn't help but ask Zhang Jie.
"Brother Jie, what kind of experiment did Chu Xuan conduct when he came to you on the second day in the Main God Space?"
Zhang Jie casually said, "There's nothing wrong with saying it; it's just that I made a pair of glasses."
"Do you remember those glasses that could convert electricity into mental energy?"
"Chu Xuan combined the glasses with the spark source and then created a device that could speed up the mental frequency."
"For example, the time in the dream world can be adjusted to fifty times or even a hundred times."
“I just used this method in Jonathan’s memory, otherwise I wouldn’t have gotten out so quickly.”
Li Xiao said "oh" and then asked:
"How are things going with the two warlords you're in charge of?"
Zhang Jie said with a smile, "Don't worry, I think I have it the easiest among all of you."
"With the presence of the Eye of Suggestion, they began searching for the Buddha statue at all costs even before I appeared."
"The suggestion I gave them was that the Buddha statue was related to the destruction and existence of the entire world."
"The rest are not needed from me."
"Then they would use some divine miracles, such as dream-related spiritual skills."
"Whether it's warlords or civilians, they're all frantically searching."
Li Xiao nodded.
This was what they agreed upon at the beginning.
At this point in time, due to the resurrection of the Dragon Emperor and the existence of the Undying Legion, a large number of people in the Qin Kingdom had come to know the existence and concept of gods.
They were just going with the flow.
After all, sometimes ignorance is a kind of power, and a rather powerful one at that.
Praying to gods and Buddhas has been a tradition since ancient times!
----------
Time passes little by little.
Leaving aside the warlord turmoil within the Dragon Kingdom and the various legends of immortals appearing in the world.
The members of the Zhongzhou team, scattered across various locations, have all achieved some success.
Buddha's hands, Buddha's head, Buddha's feet, and the Buddha's body and arms in Saito's hands.
As each piece of the puzzle is put together...
The Zhongzhou team members also saw the dawn of a complete gathering.
Mafang Town, Shanxi Province.
This is the closest human city to the entrance of the ancient tomb.
The village is not prosperous, and it cannot be compared with Shanghai.
Due to outdated infrastructure and prolonged warfare.
Looking around, this city resembles an ancient fortified city.
Most of the people looked ashen-faced and wore patched clothes.
Only a few people wore Zhongshan suits or long robes and mandarin jackets, highlighting the characteristics of this era.
In a secluded courtyard that had been completely leased out.
Jonathan sat cross-legged in the center, motionless.
Li Xiao, Zhang Jie, and Imhotep formed a triangle.
All three of them stared at the time projected above Jonathan's head, wondering what he was waiting for.
"Last time, the time was shortened to twenty-two hours."
"That means the Yellow Turban Warriors will reawaken and coalesce once every day from now on."
"Even in the last two days, if I hadn't collected all the Buddha statues to enter the ancient tomb, I would sometimes do it two or three times a day."
"And now they come in groups of five every time, and their strength is getting stronger and stronger."
Zhang Jie nodded:
"That's true, but Li Xiao, do you really need to collect all the Buddha statues?"
"The ancient tomb is right there, we can just go straight in."
"To be honest, I've already tested it with my mental power several times."
Li Xiao shook his head: "The people who created the ruins wouldn't do it without a reason. They considered the Buddha statues as necessities, which means the Buddha statues must be extremely important."
"We should spare no effort to weaken the first god whenever there is an opportunity."
"Otherwise, wouldn't it have been simpler for us to enter the ancient tomb and challenge the first God Hao Yi on the very day we saw the map?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jie's face fell.
"Haha, I'm not that reckless. I know to be careful in everything I do."
"but………"
"and many more!"
Imhotep suddenly stood up, interrupting their conversation.
A whirlwind carrying sand and gravel appeared around him, and the whirlwind was growing larger and larger.
"...The Yellow Turban Warriors are here!"
Before Imhotep could finish speaking, everyone in the village, adults and children alike, looked up at the courtyard.
At first, some yellow clothes appeared in the sky, and soon the yellow clothes were filled up.
Then its enormous size gradually became apparent.
Five Yellow Turban Warriors, only their upper bodies visible, appeared above the courtyard, covering most of the sky.
They were noticeably larger than they were yesterday, the last time they appeared.
This is far beyond the size of a human body.
Each one is five or six meters tall just from its upper body.
However, what surprised Li Xiao and Zhang Jie was...
Before they could even see clearly...
A gust of wind blew down from above.
In the blink of an eye, a Yellow Turban Warrior who was still far away appeared above Jonathan's head.
He slashed out with his palm and smashed it down.
"This isn't one of the five elements; it's wind!"
Having said that, Imhotep, being the first to discover it, naturally reacted the fastest.
A barrier of yellow sand appeared naturally.
The moment it touched the palm, the yellow sand instantly crumbled, though it did block the attack.
But Imhotep's face suddenly turned pale.
The drying of the sand is useless to them, and without a physical body, the death energy will be devoured by them.
Imhotep is now at a loss for words when faced with this.
Just as Imhotep was anxiously looking at Li Xiao...
The other person moved. Imhotep wasn't unfamiliar with Zhang Jie.
However, the Zhang Jie he knew was just an ordinary person who only knew how to shout and yell while holding a Desert Eagle.
Even if this person had unleashed some kind of mental attack on the hotel rooftop, he didn't think it mattered.
So when Imhotep saw Zhang Jie this time, he didn't ask any further questions.
After all, not all of Zheng Zha and Li Xiao's teammates are strong players.
For example, Saito Hajime, or that woman named Zhu Wen, are both very weak.
But the next second, Imhotep realized he had underestimated this man.
Zhang Jie stood still and clapped his hands lightly.
Invisible ripples spread from his palm.
The next moment, the Yellow Turban Warrior who had transformed into the wind and rushed towards Jonathan was frozen in mid-air.
After seeing this scene, Zhang Jie slowly walked over.
He looked at the other man's upper body, which was at least five or six meters tall, and reached out to stroke the Yellow Turban Warrior's clothes and body.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Li Xiao, you seem to have guessed right. It really is a pure soul, but it seems to have something else added to it."
"And it's so messy..."
"Is this the test subject Chu Xuan mentioned?"
After saying that, Zhang Jie withdrew his hand.
At the same time, the Yellow Turban Warrior began to disappear, silently and without a trace.
At that very moment, the other four Yellow Turban Warriors in the sky suddenly appeared a thousand meters away.
The four Yellow Turban Warriors reappeared after turning around.
They just disappeared abruptly, and then reappeared abruptly.
However, they were getting closer and closer to Jonathan.
It's like the screen flickering.
Upon witnessing this scene, Zhang Jie and Li Xiao only had four words in their minds: flashy and gaudy.
It's safe to say that if any two people were here, they would have a hard time dealing with the Yellow Turban Warriors who have been strengthened with new abilities.
Unfortunately, they were facing Li Xiao and Zhang Jie.
"Each teleportation distance is within one kilometer, and there is a pause between each two teleportations."
"Chu Xuan was right. His ability is very unique, but his flaws are too obvious."
"And isn't this somewhat similar to Chen Zilong's 'shrinking the earth to an inch' technique?"
Zhang Jie said.
A Yellow Turban Warrior reappeared just after completing his Blink, and this one was the closest to Jonathan.
It's safe to say that once he disappears again, we can rush to their side.
Unfortunately, they no longer had the chance.
As the Yellow Turban Warrior revealed himself.
It was horrified to discover that a silver moon wheel had been waiting there all along.
The sudden appearance of oneself felt more like a suicide attempt by crashing into something.
The moon slashed vertically through.
With a wail, the Yellow Turban Warrior collapsed instantly, and his yellow clothes scattered.
The other two Yellow Turban Warriors faced two fist-sized white dots of light.
The white light appeared almost at the same time as them.
The moment it appeared, the point of light began to expand.
The ripples from the explosion caused space itself to twist and rotate.
The two Yellow Turban warriors were frozen in place, like punctured balloons.
They could only watch as a silver, crescent-shaped blade swept past them.
He followed in his companions' footsteps.
The last Yellow Turban Warrior had just completed one blink.
Perhaps because they were experimental subjects, they lacked even the most basic intelligence.
The final result was that a skeleton cage was summoned from the ground and enveloped it.
To be precise, it is something made up of countless interconnected skulls.
Moreover, these skeletons are not just for decoration; they are all alive.
While maintaining the shape of the cage, these beings are constantly struggling and writhing, even howling and cursing.
Li Xiao looked at Imhotep beside him and really wanted to say, "Isn't there any decent magic?"
The atmosphere of the underworld is so strong in each and every one of them.
Zhang Jie stood atop the skull cage just in case.
The giant Yellow Turban Warrior, like someone in prison, could only watch Jonathan outside and attack relentlessly.
The surging water outside the body was swallowed up by the skeletons before it could even gather, and thus posed no threat whatsoever.
From the moment it appeared until the end, was it a few seconds or a dozen seconds?
Is it easy?
It wasn't just easy, it was even somewhat simple, to the point that Li Xiao didn't even have a chance to make a move.
The last remaining Yellow Turban Warrior was thus imprisoned in this hellish cage tailor-made for him.
And that was right after Zhang Jie made his move.
Li Xiao had been paying close attention to the communication information on the AI.
After all, we learned our lesson from last time.
If anyone encounters an invincible opponent, Li Xiao will instantly strike and kill the last Yellow Turban Warrior.
But this time everything went smoothly.
Half an hour later.
The Yellow Turban Warrior in the "prison" suddenly exploded and disappeared with a bang.
Li Xiao looked at Zhang Jie and Imhotep with suspicion, but both of them shook their heads to indicate that they had not made a move.
Ultimately, we can only conclude that the Yellow Turban Warriors did not exist indefinitely.
Thirty minutes is the longest possible time.
Time passed, and almost another day went by.
This unremarkable village has become lively because of the arrival of certain people.
However, everyone knows that life is precious, so they dare not approach this strange building that has collapsed most of the way down and has been rebuilt from sand and soil.
Even the surrounding area for dozens of kilometers was cleared out; not only people, but also chickens, ducks, cattle, and sheep were taken away.
There's a saying that goes, "When gods fight, mortals suffer."
Those five monsters who only work are indeed a bit too terrifying just by looking at them.
In the villages and towns.
The crowing of roosters constantly reminded everyone that a new day had begun.
At the entrance of the courtyard, Jonathan, wearing tight boxer shorts, was sitting in a large wooden tub, vigorously rubbing his skin.
However, even though his face was flushed from exhaustion, the dark green scribbles on Jonathan's belly didn't go down at all.
"Snapped!"
Jonathan threw the sandpaper on the ground, trembling as he looked at Imhotep, who was looking up at the sky.
But before he could speak, Imhotep suddenly pointed to the side:
"Ah, is Saito Hajime and the others here? I'll go check!"
After saying that, it transformed into sand and flew into the sky.
Jonathan then looked at Li Xiao beside him.
The man touched his nose with an embarrassed expression.
"Ahem, this isn't a tattoo I gave you. If you want to find Imhotep, I've already replaced the Green Goblin skateboard with a new one. We're even now."
Upon hearing this, Jonathan trembled as if he had been abandoned.
He looked at the scribbles all over his body, even on his back and thighs, and knelt down with a thud.
"Waaaaah, this is bullying!!!"
"They didn't say in the beginning that this stuff couldn't be washed off!!!"
"Waaaaah!!!"
“Evelyn, right, Evelyn.”
“Let’s go, Li Xiao, let’s go to the ancient tomb now. Evelyn and O’Connor are inside. I’m going to complain to them.”
Li Xiao looked at Zhang Jie, who was sitting in a recliner, and he also showed a helpless expression.
Jonathan, naked, hugged the pillar at the front door and began to cry again.
Saito stopped immediately upon seeing this scene as soon as he entered, but before he could withdraw his leg...
Jonathan then turned around and took a quick step.
"Brother Qi, I'm in so much pain!" (End of Chapter)
