Cataclysm King - #371 - Chapter 371 Special rules in the carriage

“Bang!”

The shadow collapsed.

In the 002 box, Ji Xun slammed the door.

In just a moment, a thin layer of sweat covered his forehead.

Qin Ru was looking at his solemn expression and immediately asked alertly: “What’s wrong?”

Hearing this, the luster in Ji Xun’s black pupils dispersed slightly, and he responded in a deep voice: “My shadow was killed.”

He tried his best to remember what had killed his shadow just now.

But the attack came too fast and strangely, and it was killed instantly without giving Shadow any time to react.

The attacker’s strength is very strong.

The movement is very strange.

When Qin Ru heard this, his eyes were full of stern expression.

After a pause, Ji Xun continued: “It’s already past midnight, and our perception has been misled. The special-grade resentful spirit in the private room next door has come out.”

As soon as he said it, he seemed to feel that something was wrong again.

“What?!”

Qin Ru was shocked when he heard this.

The golden magic power surged all over her body instantly, and she was about to enter the battle mode of a god descending to earth.

Now the two seem to have only one choice.

That is frontal combat.

However, this feeling of knowing nothing about the enemy made neither of them feel confident.

The only clue came from the notes, which revealed that the mysterious murderer could kill two heads of the Bai family.

Having that kind of strength is definitely not something that ordinary legendary level combat power can achieve.

Therefore, even if Qin Ruzhi has reached the seventh level, he has no confidence that he can fight head-on.

What’s more, it’s a special environment like a ghost train.

Now that the “mysterious monster” has appeared, the situation of the two suddenly becomes critical.

Ji Xun deduced all the known clues so far, and the results were very bad.

Moreover, his intuition told him that if he stayed in the room, he would die.

No movement could be heard outside the door, but it was this eerie silence that made the two of them feel that the atmosphere was particularly solemn.

Their eyes were fixed on the door, as if a monster would rush in at the next moment.

Ji Xun’s eyes trembled frequently, and countless thoughts were rapidly deduced in his mind.

At this time, he didn’t know what he thought of. He glanced at the room with his peripheral vision, and suddenly made an incredible decision. He said decisively: “Aunt Qin, I will go out and hold them back.”

Qin Ru was shocked when he heard this: “You want to go out?”

She wasn’t even sure. Wouldn’t it be more dangerous for Ji Xun to go out?

Ji Xun shook his head, and without any time to explain, he just said: “At present, it seems that the only hope of breaking the situation lies in this notebook.”

The last three heads of the Bai family must have tried fighting, but the result was that two died and one was seriously injured.

No matter who is in this situation, if there is no other solution, the outcome will probably be the same.

Ji Xun felt that the biggest difference between the two of them and the people who had entered this box before was that they held the [God Thief’s Ring], a token of the Bai family, and Qin Rushi’s rank.

Judging from the contents of the notes, meeting the two specific conditions of the seventh level and the ring can trigger certain hidden contents left in the notes by the ancestors of the Bai family.

Ji Xun felt that those hidden contents were their biggest reliance on being able to get out of the car alive.

“But.”

Qin Ru was hesitant as he listened.

I still want to say something, but I don’t know how to say it.

After thinking about it for a moment, she understood why Ji Xun said this.

Without further ado, Ji Xun made a decision without any hesitation and opened the door.

In an instant, it was as if the door to hell had been opened, and a terrifying and cold breath poured in from the crack in the door.

The “mysterious being” outside seems to be very interested in the two living people in the house.

Before they could break in, Ji Xun’s figure had already escaped from the crack of the door, and then with a click, the door was locked again.

His last reminder echoed in the room: “I probably won’t die in a short time. Be careful.”

He didn’t give himself a chance to say anything more. The door had already cut off everything.

Qin Ruzhi’s brows knitted together inadvertently, his eyes focused and sharp, and there was a hint of struggle.

If she had a choice, she would rather go by herself.

Nor was he willing to let Ji Xun attract the firepower of those monsters.

At this point, Qin Rushi also knew that his task was urgent.

She picked up the notebook and read it carefully.

Qin Ruzhu knew that Ji Xun had a lot of knowledge in the “I am the world” secret method. If he could make this decision, he must have made the best choice for the current situation of the two of them.

Thoughts that came to a halt in an instant.

Qin Ru’s eyes quickly wandered over the notes.

There was an indescribable sense of oppression in the air.

But in this situation where she would face death if she didn’t break the situation, she didn’t know where to find a sense of peace of mind.

In Qin Rushi’s mind at this moment, Ji Xun’s panic-stricken expression appeared in his mind unconsciously.

Looking back, I have known each other for such a long time, and it seems like this happens every time.

Although his strength is obviously not as good as his own, he always gives people a very reliable feeling.

We have come step by step to where we are now.

It seemed as if that guy had said that if he wanted to hold back the undead spirits outside, he would be able to hold them back.

Thoughts flashed.

Qin Ru was looking through the notes carefully, and that inexplicable feeling of relief gave her brain time to think carefully about the conversation just now.

Suddenly she seemed to have discovered something, and her heart thumped: “Eh”

Now that she thought about it, she realized that Ji Xun’s last sentence was, “I probably won’t die in a short time. Be careful.”

The tone is obviously broken.

It means two things.

Others may not be able to tell the difference.

But as an old friend with a tacit understanding, Qin Rushi immediately realized something was wrong.

There was obviously a mysterious monster in this special-class box that he was afraid of, so why was he so confident that he couldn’t die?

Also, what did he remind me to be careful about?

Qin Ruzhi knew that Ji Xun must have considered something deeper than what he didn’t see.

Think along this line of thinking.

It’s scary to think about it.

Why can’t you just say it?

Are there some scruples?

can not say.

Are you afraid of being noticed by someone?

Suddenly, Qin Rushi felt as if he had captured some key information.

Except for the two of them, there is only a mirror in this room.

Thinking of this, Qin Ru vaguely guessed what Ji Xun wanted her to find.

At this time, the [God-Stealing Ring] on the finger seemed to echo some of the restrictions on the note.

Qin Rushi obtained permissions that the Bai family had not obtained for three thousand years.

Some secrets hidden on the white paper that had been hidden for thousands of years suddenly came into view.

Qin Ru did not dare to delay at all, and her eyes quickly searched for the ancient secrets that made her stunned.

On the other side, Ji Xun walked out of the box.

The moment the door closed, I felt like I had entered the underworld, and that cold feeling that sent chills down my spine suddenly hit my heart.

There were wisps of cold white smoke on the ground of the carriage, and the original orange light turned into a turquoise like a will-o’-the-wisp.

It was clear that he had one foot in the coffin, but there was no trace of fear on Ji Xun’s face.

Instead, he raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said to himself: “Is it the breath of the underworld?”

I had seen a scene where the gate to the underworld opened in Shangbang Prison before.

Seeing this scene now, it is not strange, but rather familiar and cordial.

He liked the feeling of being so close to death.

It was dead silent and desolate, like an empty cemetery, and the chill in the air was like the mournful cry of the dead.

Ji Xun came out ready to face those mysterious existences.

At this moment, his state of mind was extremely calm.

Don’t wander around either.

He just sat leisurely on the shrinking stool hanging on the wall of the train corridor.

His eyes glanced around.

The shadow wasn’t clear enough just now, but now it’s time to take a closer look.

I don’t know whether it was because he was too calm as a living person, or because of other reasons, but the neighbors in the next room were not in a hurry to show their faces.

Room 001 next door is still closed.

003, 004, and 007, who was reminded by the conductor of the origin of the [Black Devil], looked over one by one.

Ji Xun’s physical body’s perception is much stronger than that of the shadow.

In his eyes, black threads overflowed from the gaps in the rooms.

This is countless negative emotions mixed with evil mental pollution.

Just sitting there, Ji Xun felt as if his soul was being pulled out of his body.

Enlightenment is also a constant reminder of soul pollution.

Fortunately, the clown mask exempts most of the mysterious erosion.

While I was observing, room 003 next door clicked open.

After taking a closer look, a noble lady who was three meters tall and wearing a huge wide-brimmed hat came out.

Its skin is blue, exuding a translucent light, and its whole body exudes a cold aura of the necromantic system.

Because it was too high, the top of his head almost reached the top of the car.

This is an evil spirit with a very powerful aura.

Seeing the other party’s slightly curious eyes looking over, Ji Xun stood up and saluted like a gentleman, and took the initiative to say hello: “Hello, beautiful lady.”

The female ghost seemed to have no ill intentions, and seemed to be surprised by the novelty of seeing a living person. She responded with a playful smile.

It sat on the stool at the door of the room and said no more.

Like a prisoner who comes out of prison at certain times, as soon as this person comes out, there is movement in the room.

At this moment, a kobold wearing a suit and six heads on his neck came out of room 004.

Room 005 is a tree man with a head full of dead branches, room 006 is a stinky mud monster, room 008 is a flame ghost, and room 009 is a bunch of slimy tentacles.

Not long after, nine powerful undead spirits appeared one after another in the corridor.

Not all are humanoid.

But strangely shaped.

Several of them were undead spirits that Ji Xun had only heard of in classics and legends.

He was curious in his heart, but his expression was scrutinizing as usual.

But after waiting for a moment, there was no movement in the 007 room that he had been paying attention to.

The door of 001 is also closed. I don’t know if there is anyone there.

These undead spirits that appeared sat quietly in their own positions, as if they had a tacit understanding formed over thousands of years.

They also seemed to completely turn a deaf ear to the presence of a living person in the carriage.

The atmosphere was extremely weird.

However, from Ji Xun’s point of view, it’s not that they are not interested in him, but that they probably haven’t allocated the first bite of the “cake” on the plate first.

Moreover, after decades of hard work to get such a living person, the resentful spirits probably did not expect to end this cat and mouse game so quickly.

The undead didn’t move, and neither did Ji Xun.

He sat calmly like an ordinary passenger.

If he delays some time here, Qin Rushi will have more time there.

However, Ji Xun was slightly confused as he looked at it.

Although these undead spirits are different from each other, why do they all exude the same black thread?

Thoughtful.

Before he could think about it, ashes like snowflakes floated in the air.

Probably because some mental illusions didn’t work, and a certain undead couldn’t wait any longer.

A fierce murderous intent quietly appeared around him.

“coming!”

Ji Xun’s eyes flashed, and his right hand instantly turned into a bronze color, blocking his neck.

The next moment, the harsh sound of metal cutting was heard.

A steel claw sliced ​​smoothly through his neck without warning.

Fortunately, it was blocked by the palm filled with domineering energy, and the sharp blade only cut off half of the finger, so it was not fatal.

Before the warm blood left, the wound had recovered as before.

Ji Xun felt that this method was familiar and immediately thought of something: “It’s the guy who just killed Shadow!”

Now that he had taken action, he punched him out without any hesitation.

With a “boom” sound, the void was shattered.

Ji Xun didn’t dodge just now. In addition to being too pressed for time, the better choice was because he could test the enemy’s strength at close range.

The distance of the punch was almost close to the face, and the punch [Earth Crying] was enough to inflict serious injuries on any opponent below the level of legend.

However, what surprised Ji Xun was that the black image in front of him was cracked like a mirror.

In the blink of an eye, the guy was like a beaten shadow in the water, restored to his original appearance.

“Huh?”

Ji Xun’s eyes narrowed as he immediately thought of something.

Could it be the exclusive magical magic of the [Plum Blossom 2-Assassin] sequence – “Virtual Flash”?

The ceiling ability of dark ability is a kind of body technique that is more difficult to understand than the elemental body.

At a glance, not far away, a guy wearing a top hat and a tuxedo, with scissor claws on his hands, slowly condensed into shape.

Those mist-like ghost eyes stared at Ji Xun suspiciously.

It seemed strange that his claw did not kill this human being.

As soon as this guy started, he saw the name above his head – [Edward Scissorhands].

Ji Xun didn’t dare to be careless. The clown’s shadow appeared behind him, his bones and muscles clicked, and his body suddenly rose up, transforming into a three-headed dragon-scaled hellfire demon.

After he entered the strongest fighting state, for some reason, all the undead souls looked sideways at him, as if they were extremely surprised.

Not only were they surprised, Ji Xun also vaguely guessed something when he saw the changes in the expressions of these resentful spirits.

It was obvious that the expressions on these guys’ faces were not surprising to Ji Xun himself.

It was the clown demon shown behind him.

That expression seemed to tell Ji Xun: they had seen this demon god.

Ji Xun doesn’t think it’s such a coincidence. Very few people know his [JOKER] sequence, let alone recognize it.

“Tsk, tsk, that’s interesting.”

Another piece of the puzzle popped up in Ji Xun’s mind, and that was the forbidden magic weapon [Black Magic] that he had just obtained.

He didn’t think it was such a coincidence that such a special relic would appear in the carriage of an evil spirit who seemed to know [JOKER] at the same time.

However, there were not enough clues, and Ji Xun could not figure out the exact relationship between the two.

On the contrary, my situation is very bad.

Ji Xun looked at Edward Scissorhands and thought in his mind: “The combat power he displayed did not exceed the seventh level, but his understanding of the laws was very high. I wonder why this is happening?”

At the moment of the fight, he confirmed the strength of that undead spirit.

It is indeed very strong, but definitely not at level seven.

Not even level six.

But strangely, his understanding of the law is very high.

It was so high that it could easily cut through Ji Xun’s invincible domineering body aura.

It feels like Gong Wu before he advanced. In terms of rank, he is still a legend.

But in terms of combat power, Gong Wu is much stronger than other legends.

This is a difference in realm.

The combat prowess displayed by Edward Scissorhands in front of him gave him this feeling.

However, there are not so many palace warriors in this world.

There must be other reasons for this phenomenon.

With thoughts running rapidly in his mind, Ji Xun thought of the time rules of the last time he took the train, and suddenly thought of a possibility: “Could it be the ‘train rules’?”

His intuition told him that this guy might be restricted by some kind of rules, and it could only show so much combat power.

After all, this [Neon] Nether Train is a rule-based disaster of unknown rank.

Since the undead are on the train, there is a high probability that they will not be of a higher grade than the train itself, so they must abide by certain rules.

The train conductor who can walk freely everywhere is the best proof.

Thinking of this, Ji Xun suddenly grinned: “You’ll know after you try it.”

If it was really what he guessed, it didn’t seem like things were that bad.

Just as this thought flashed across his mind, the Scissorhands figure disappeared on the spot again.

“Keng”, “Keng”, “Keng”.

The carriage was filled with fire and the sharp sound of metal could be heard.

The two sides fought for four or five rounds in a very short period of time.

At this time, the two figures that touched very quickly separated again.

Five bloody incisions were made in the chest, and Ji Xun, whose beating heart could be faintly seen, was forced into a corner in embarrassment.

The immortal curse quickly healed the wounds on his body.

Although he was seriously injured in the confrontation just now, a smile of realization appeared on his face at this moment: “As expected.”

This is good news for him.

It’s not because Edward Scissorhands isn’t strong enough.

It is precisely because the undead clearly only showed the strength of the fifth level, but it was so strong that it posed a fatal threat to Ji Xun, who was almost invincible at the same level.

Then this is a big problem!

The super undead spirit that could kill two Bai family heads failed to kill him, which directly confirmed his previous suspicion.

That is, the spirits on this train cannot use strength that exceeds the level of their human opponents!

This is the rule on the [neon] train.

Just like “no smoking”, it is a rule that all passengers must abide by!

Ji Xun didn’t know what happened to the undead souls in the special carriage.

But he knew that in a sense, this train was the place where the Bai family inherited the test.

If there are special rules, then they must have been set by the ancestors of the Bai family!

Thinking along this line of thinking, it is not difficult for Ji Xun to guess that these special undead souls should have been a place for trials for some of the most talented descendants of the Bai family.

So, everything makes sense.

Not everyone who is also a legendary card master can survive at the hands of Gong Wu.

Similarly, not all card masters of the same level can survive under the hands of these special-level undead who once had no idea of ​​their level.

Ji Xun is now basically certain that due to the restrictions of the rules, as long as the undead in front of him face him, they can only unleash “special fifth level” combat power!

If this is true as he speculated, this would be a great benefit.

Although one [Edward Scissorhands] was already in danger, Ji Xun didn’t think how long he could resist if a few more came.

But at least he wasn’t killed instantly by an overwhelming force.

Then he can delay it longer!

Thinking of this, Ji Xun was also glad that he was not in the room with Qin Rushi.

Otherwise, those who just broke in might be a group of “special seventh-level” undead.

That’s really a dead end.
