Chapter 186: Chapter 139: Who Are You?
’To think a power of this level could give me a premonition of death. This Judgment Sequence is truly incredible.’
"..."
She was silent for a moment, then said flatly,
"I finally understand what that Li Family kid meant. From now on, when you’re out and about, don’t use this Sequence unless you absolutely have to. It could bring you disaster."
"You have more than one Sequence, don’t you?"
"Yes."
Su Yu nodded.
He had no idea, of course, how much that handshake had shaken the woman before him.
He just nodded as usual.
His Judgment Sequence didn’t absorb Sequence Energy, but lifespan. Naturally, he wouldn’t use it carelessly, nor could he afford to.
With their conversation over,
the scene grew much quieter.
The two of them walked forward together, but the building’s corridor was like an endless maze. They walked in circle after circle, completely unable to find an exit.
They even encountered a clone along the way, but with the Rotten Girl present, a single slap was enough to kill it. It was no trouble at all.
Seeing no sign of a way out, Su Yu finally asked,
"Senior."
"Can we get out of here?"
"There’s no way. With our strength, we can’t break through this Array."
The Rotten Girl shook her head.
"An Array?"
Su Yu repeated the word. "That sounds like something a Qi Cultivator would use."
"It does seem like the work of a Spirit Lord."
"I’ve read about this kind of Spirit Array in many ancient texts. I wasn’t sure at first, but the clone we just encountered confirmed my suspicions."
"According to the old books, this is a type of Spatial Array."
The way it was used was complex, but its effect was very direct.
Inside this Array, it wasn’t just people and objects that were replicated—even space itself was forcibly copied multiple times, making it impossible for those trapped within to find their way out.
Not only could they not get out, but many of them were separated into different spaces, unable to even meet one another.
In the beginning, when the Array was first set up, the spaces weren’t that stable, and there was still a chance of encountering others. But as time went on, that chance would become slimmer and slimmer, eventually trapping everyone inside until they died.
"Then doesn’t that mean we’re stuck here?"
Su Yu asked, a little confused.
He couldn’t quite understand why the senior before him wasn’t the least bit panicked, even though everyone was supposedly trapped here to die.
"Why do we need to get out?"
The Rotten Girl glanced at Su Yu, then added, "It’s not so bad staying here, is it?"
"..."
Su Yu paused,
at a loss for words.
"Relax. This Array can only trap us; it can’t kill us."
"He isn’t a true Qi Cultivator. His Spiritual Qi will run out sooner or later. An Array this large will naturally collapse without Spiritual Qi to sustain it. We’ll be able to get out eventually."
The Rotten Girl said nonchalantly,
"I’m just a little curious what his mission from the Spirit Realm is. There must be some purpose to trapping us in here, right?"
"It can’t be that he’s just here to mess with us."
"Well... if he has another goal, shouldn’t we still try to find a way out?"
Su Yu asked, confused.
"What’s the rush?"
"It’s not like we can get out, is it?"
"...Huh?"
...
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!!
A dense series of explosions rang out as one Sequencer after another, radiating Sequence Energy, blasted wildly at the space ahead!
VWOOM!!
The crimson Sparrow Sword tore through the air and shot forward, instantly slicing all the Sequencers in half.
The moment the Sequencers were cut in two by the Sparrow Sword, the left and right halves of their bodies abruptly disintegrated, dissolving into motes of light that vanished.
Su Xing casually slammed a man he was holding onto the ground with a loud BANG!
The ground instantly caved in, and the man’s head was smashed to a pulp, bursting into a speck of white light before disappearing.
"That should be all of them, right?"
Su Xing glanced around and said flatly.
These people were all Sequencers from the special organization, and they too had been replicated by this bizarre technique.
The Sequencers from the special organization had extensive combat experience, far beyond what the artificially empowered Spiritualist Followers could compare to.
If it had been anyone else,
they might have actually suffered a bit at the hands of these clones.
Unfortunately,
they had run into Su Xing.
Forget suffering; with their level of strength, they weren’t even a nuisance. They were just mosquitoes to be swatted away.
The thing that truly frustrated Su Xing wasn’t the endless stream of clones, but the fact that he couldn’t find a way out.
It was like being supernaturally trapped in a loop. No matter which direction Su Xing walked or for how long, he would always end up back in the same place.
He was completely unable to leave.
’An illusion?’
’Or has the space itself been tampered with?’
After returning to the starting point yet again, Su Xing touched a large crater on the ground and fell into thought.
’It’s probably not an illusion...’
’This is more of a spatial technique.’
Whether it was an illusion or a spatial manipulation, neither was good news for Su Xing. He preferred a straightforward, physical fight and had no good solution for this kind of technique.
’Maybe... I should just see if I can smash this place open with brute force.’
’Whether it’s an illusion or a pocket dimension, if I can just smash a hole in it, I’ll naturally be able to see what’s on the other side.’
Su Xing’s eyes flashed. The Black Sword materialized, and he slashed it directly at the wall beside him!
’What is this crap,’
’thinking it can trap me?!’
BOOM!!!
The immense force shattered everything!
The wall before him instantly exploded, revealing what was behind it.
Black. It was an absolute blackness, like the kind behind a spatial rift that Su Xing had torn open before.
Staring at the scene, Su Xing thought to himself,
’It’s a spatial technique.’
’Whatever. I’ll go in and take a look...’
Su Xing reached out his hand. At first touch, it felt like cool water. Then, meeting no resistance at all, he stepped right into the darkness.
The next moment,
the darkness receded, and light returned.
Su Xing found himself back in a corridor.
’I’m back again?’
’No, this place is slightly different from the last corridor. It must be a different location.’
The corridors in the organization’s building were nearly identical, making Su Xing think he had returned to the same spot at first glance. However, he quickly noticed the differences.
Before Su Xing could investigate further, he suddenly heard voices conversing ahead of him.
’Voices?’
’Those clones can’t talk.’
But having learned his lesson with Bailan, Su Xing didn’t approach directly. He shrouded himself in his "Sword Qi Stance" and hid in an inconspicuous spot, quietly waiting for the speakers to arrive.
As the voices grew closer, the figures of Su Yu and the Rotten Girl appeared in Su Xing’s line of sight.
"Who’s there?"
The moment the Rotten Girl came into view, she sensed something and stopped in her tracks, calling out sharply.
"Someone’s here?"
Su Yu said in surprise.
He looked ahead, puzzled. ’There’s no one there.’
"I’m not sure."
"But I can feel it. This place has changed from before."
"Changed?"
Su Yu was surprised again.
He and the Rotten Girl had been walking in circles, and these places were all completely identical. How could anything have changed?
But the Rotten Girl was a Tier 5, after all.
So he immediately trusted her judgment.
"I mean no harm."
"I just arrived here by accident."
Su Xing’s slightly lowered voice drifted over.
’It’s... it’s my brother!’
Su Yu exclaimed inwardly.
He was all too familiar with Su Xing’s voice. Even though Su Xing had intentionally disguised it, Su Yu recognized it instantly.
"An accident?"
"Who are you?"
The Rotten Girl frowned. Although she could tell someone was there, she couldn’t sense their location at all, which meant their strength was by no means inferior to her own.
"Hmm..."
"The special organization calls me the ’Mysterious Expert’."
