The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human? Chapter 1348 822: Delivery Gang vs. Dragon Vein Grand Magician (2)

Any creature within this vicinity enters a state of profound deafness, continuously sustaining damage from a potent force field. Upon a creature's demise due to this force field damage, its body and all possessions—excluding items of extraordinary quality or superior—will vanish, disintegrating into mere wisps of gray dust. This indiscriminate, large-scale attack unequivocally signals the opponent's true fury, disregarding the very survival of Lin Huang, Jiao Jiao, and her mother.

"..."

Panda attempted to cast a spell but found himself utterly unable to vocalize any sound. Soon, an overwhelming force began to compress them from all directions, akin to being plunged into a high-powered industrial blender. In that critical moment, he observed Liu Zheng raising his hand and directing a point towards Lin Pinru. Panda's understanding dawned instantly; he swiftly summoned both the Lesser Yang Xiguang Banner and the Lesser Yin Sunflower Water Banner to shield Lin Pinru. These two banners represent its lifebound magical treasures, controllable with divine thought and capable of automatically protecting their master even if consciousness is lost. Furthermore, as an ancient, strange beast, bolstered by the spiritual blood of its mother, this level of force field compression could not harm it, at least temporarily. Liu Zheng, housed within an artificial body, and Niu Daji, protected by inherited treasure armor, faced minimal issues. Bai Tianshi and Luo Ping, however, endured a grim fate, their capillaries bursting under the immense pressure, leaving them resembling bloody gourds. Fortunately, they had previously consumed Niu Daji's beef tripe, which transferred half the damage to him; otherwise, their condition would have been significantly worse.

"We cannot endure this any longer."

Liu Zheng's brow furrowed. Panda's Daoist skills were rudimentary, with many spells being common folk techniques that necessitate gestures and incantations. Although this particular spell surely possessed a time limit, the doctor and the detective were unlikely to survive until its conclusion. "As the leader, I must intervene personally." He shook his head, transitioning into his Four-armed Asura mode. "Eternal Purgatory Shura Great Dharma Wheel!" The brilliant light emanating from the Dharma Wheel pierced the oppressive darkness, bringing immediate relief to everyone. The Dark Star was incapable of completely obscuring light produced by transcendent beings, and the transcendent status of the Extreme Fury Asura far surpassed this Eight-Ring Spell. Naturally, status is distinct from capability; the Shura Great Dharma Wheel, not unleashed at its full potential, could only endure the force field's squeeze, not break the spell itself. Were he alone, Liu Zheng would certainly refrain from exerting full power, as the enemy had yet to reveal themselves. However, with four teammates by his side, he could afford to be less cautious. Moreover, utilizing items proves less cost-effective without an artificial body, making reliance on the artificial body the superior choice. With this thought, Liu Zheng issued instructions to the Extreme Fury Asura. The Extreme Fury Asura would never refuse; the more Liu Zheng utilized it, the stronger it became, until one day it would overthrow him, assimilating Liu Zheng into its being. It harbored an intuition: by absorbing Liu Zheng and "Anger," it could evolve to an unimaginable extent, enabling it to launch a counter-assault to the "Metaverse," decimating the 'bald donkeys' and burning the 'Buddha's soil.' Vein patterns flashed, and with a silent roar, the Extreme Fury Asura channeled all its energy into the Dharma Wheel hovering above its head, just as it had once supplied everything to its Master and the Buddha. The "Eternal Purgatory Shura Great Dharma Wheel" momentarily faltered before accelerating its spin. Eight interlacing rings of fire spread outward as the Dharma Wheel rotated, swiftly shattering the dark void and dispersing into an energy tempest across the night sky.

"Damn it, that was suffocating," Panda grumbled, scooping up a handful of command flags and scattering them around him. The command flags automatically arranged themselves, hovering in the air and dancing in the wind. "From Mixed Element emerges Tai Chi, Tai Chi produces the Two Instruments, the Two Instruments give rise to the Four Symbols..." Panda rapidly chanted a spell, then pointed eastward. "Azure Dragon of the East, guard my right." Seven command flags in the east radiated an azure luminescence, connecting to form a unified entity accompanied by faint dragon roars. "Vermilion Bird of the South, guard my rear." Seven command flags in the south emitted a scarlet glow, merging into a form with ethereal phoenix cries. "White Tiger of the West, guard my left." Seven command flags in the west pulsed with a white-gold light, linking together with faint tiger roars. "Black Tortoise of the North, guard my front." Seven command flags in the north glowed with a dark light, coalescing into a shape with the subtle sound of a snake's hiss. "Yin Yang Qi governs the Four Spirits." Panda gestured again, and the Lesser Yin and Yang Banner spiraled skyward, transforming into a Tai Chi Double Fish Plate.

The Yin Yang Qi Formation and the Mixed Element Four Symbols Array have both been upgraded. These command flags were meticulously crafted over many years and are expended with each use; Panda would have been greatly embarrassed to use them if not for facing Liu Zheng.

While Panda was establishing the formation, the hidden enemy was simultaneously preparing their subsequent spell.

Since the Eight-Ring 'Dark Star' proved insufficient against these individuals, the Nine Rings Magic, which mages cannot cast instantly, had to be employed.

"Strong Effect Casting · Meteor Burst!"

Four colossal meteors, aflame and the size of trucks, blazed across the night sky, hurtling towards the members of the Delivery Gang.

"Shit!"

Liu Zheng could not refrain from cursing. Mages, it seemed, were universally favored, requiring numerous exquisite items for large-scale assaults, while others could achieve similar feats with a single spell. And this time, it was fourfold!

"Stupid bull, get up there and hold it back," Panda commanded.

"Bear, you might as well say you want me dead directly, no need to use someone else to do the job," Niu Daji grumbled.

"I've channeled the entire power of the Mixed Element Four Symbols Array onto you; you won't perish. I've already apprehended that individual. While he's still manipulating the meteors, allow the rest of us to go capture him," Panda yelled.

"Boss?"

Niu Daji turned his gaze towards Liu Zheng.

"Go ahead. If you die, I'll skin Ah Bao to craft your coffin," Liu Zheng nodded.

Given Panda's assurance that Niu Daji would survive, any demise would necessitate a steep price. The latter had no further reservations. Taking a deep breath, a brilliant green light erupted, causing him to swell to a height of four to five meters. Wielding a formidable steel fork and clad in ornate armor, he assumed the appearance of the legendary Bull Demon King.

"Mutt, lend me your blood and that bracelet of yours," Panda requested.

"Take it," Liu Zheng immediately cut a piece of flesh from his own face. He then removed the 'Human Tooth Bracelet' from his wrist and presented it.

"Name: Human Tooth Bracelet"

"Type: Equipment"

"Quality: Excellent"

"Effect One: Reduces the negative impact of spells such as Nightmare Town, Zhu You, Poisonous Gu, and Divination on the player."

"Effect Two: When a Witch True Descendant is within a hundred meters, the Human Tooth Bracelet will provide a prompt."

"Note: Blood for blood, tooth for tooth!"

"Can it be taken out of the instance: Yes"

This particular bracelet had been bestowed upon him by the bronze-faced Witch Qi, the gatekeeper of the Heavenly Martial King's Tomb, and was fashioned from the teeth of her kin. While it served Liu Zheng merely as auxiliary equipment and a positioning device, Panda, as an adherent of the Orthodox Xuanmen, clearly possessed alternative applications for it.

Panda gathered some soil from the immediate vicinity, then mixed it with Liu Zheng's flesh and blood, shaping the concoction into a bowl-like form. Subsequently, using the teeth from the Human Tooth Bracelet, he meticulously etched peculiar patterns within the bowl, which bore a resemblance to both script and strangely formed insects.

"I offer spiritual blood, worshipping the Gu God. Gu God, Gu God, heed my voice." ----------------- "Eternal Purgatory Shura Great Dharma Wheel!"

The resplendent light emanating from the Dharma Wheel obliterated the surrounding darkness, bringing immediate relief to everyone present. The 'Dark Star' was incapable of entirely containing light generated by a transcendent entity, and the transcendent status of the Extreme Fury Asura far surpassed that of this Eight-Ring Spell. Naturally, status was one thing, and manifestation was another; the Shura Great Dharma Wheel, lacking its full power, could only withstand the force field compression and was unable to shatter the spell. If he were acting alone, he would certainly not unleash its full might, as the enemy had yet to reveal themselves completely.
