Chapter 1851: Chapter 1878: Lies Become Reality!
The castle gate opened.
A figure in a black robe sauntered in, hands behind his back, his eyes smiling as they faced a big, round face, showing no fear.
"Do you think I’m ugly?"
The primitive man asked gruffly.
Black-robed figure: "Very beautiful."
"With your beauty, you must have a kind heart. Could you take me to see my two friends?"
"Lies, the scent of lies."
"You must look down on me, right? You must feel disgusted with me inside, right!"
"You’re done. You actually dared to mock me. You’re dead. I’m going to peel the flesh off your body piece by piece until you die in endless agony!"
"Roar!"
The primitive man suddenly went berserk, his dark body turned red, and he punched at the black-robed man. A terrifying aura surged, instantly tearing the mask off Da Jianbi’s face.
It was a youthful face, very feminine, with a pale complexion, more delicate than even a woman’s.
Da Jianbi’s expression hardened, evidently not expecting the brute to suddenly attack, dodging hastily, a bloody scratch added to his face.
"This castle is really big; it should have three floors, right?"
"Where we are might not necessarily be the first floor, right? Maybe we’re on the second floor, right?"
Da Jianbi looked up, quickly scanned the ceiling, and said loudly.
The primitive man didn’t listen to him at all, giving no opportunities, his millstone-sized fist arriving in an instant. At the same time, the ground turned into a marsh, entangling Da Jianbi’s ankles.
Da Jianbi lowered his head; his body was sucked into the muddy ground, diving straight in.
Not only that, the primitive man’s body followed the momentum of his punch, sinking into the mire and falling down.
Everything happened in a split second, but Li Xiaobai saw it clearly. From the moment Da Jianbi finished his sentence, the castle turned into a three-story building, and the second floor they were on somehow became the third floor.
The first floor, where the primitive man and Da Jianbi were, silently transformed into the second floor. At this moment, the two pierced through the mire, falling to the first floor.
"Just like before, words become reality."
"This castle is already within his control, but the punch from the primitive man at the start was clearly unexpected for him."
"Why is the primitive not under control?"
Li Xiaobai was intently watching the battle; he had already reached the threshold.
The next time Da Jianbi activated his ability, he would grasp the clues.
First floor.
Da Jianbi and the primitive man tumbled onto the ground.
The entire castle began to melt, with the marsh dripping away little by little. This was the primitive man’s Law, turning the area around his body into a quagmire to trap his opponents.
"Fellow Daoist, may I ask your name?"
Da Jianbi flipped over, talking to the primitive man.
Alas, the primitive man had no intention of communication, his fists windmilling powerfully, pressing forward like a grindstone.
"You smashed my ribs with a punch just now. Although it looks fine on the surface, in reality, I am seriously injured."
"With your current strength, you could easily kill me."
"Do you want to bully the weak?"
Da Jianbi dodged frantically, overwhelmed by sheer strength, endless marshes restricting him all around, his body bombarded by more punches from the primitive man, blood spewing wildly from his mouth.
It was clear that he was confused and anxious. His Law of Power was very unstable against the primitive man, sometimes effective, sometimes not.
After several exchanges, he glanced upstairs, seeming to resolve himself.
"I originally planned to kill you all without leaving any trace, but it seems unlikely now."
"Having an oaf like this doesn’t guarantee your victory. On the contrary, trapping yourselves in this castle is your most foolish mistake!"
Da Jianbi clashed with the primitive man, bellowing to the sky:
"Labyrinth of Lies!"
The castle didn’t change, but it was seemingly shrouded by some force.
A mirror appeared in the mud, right in front of the primitive man.
Da Jianbi said in a deep voice, "Brother, you look incredible, stunningly gorgeous, look in the mirror, you’ll be awestruck by your own beauty."
"Roar!"
The primitive man strangely halted his steps, staring at his reflection in the mirror, dumbfounded.
Success!
Da Jianbi’s face lit up with joy, striking the primitive man’s chest with his palm, sending him flying.
"Puff!"
The primitive man coughed up blood, eyes full of deep confusion.
"So it is, no wonder my Law of Power was ineffective against you because you didn’t listen to my words at all, but there was one thing you paid exceptional attention to, your appearance evaluation; that’s your fatal flaw."
"You’ll die because of your ugly face!"
Da Jianbi sneered, clasping the primitive man’s head and squeezing hard, the terrifying force shattered his body, covering him in mud.
What he crushed was the primitive man’s mud sculpture, the real one had escaped.
"I thought he was just a simple-minded brute, yet he had such cunning."
"This castle has already been covered by my Visualized Item; you all can’t escape!"
Da Jianbi slowly walked upstairs.
Third floor.
The primitive man, coughing up blood, hid behind Yu Huan Shui, looking aggrieved like a child.
"Don’t mess around, you only suffered a minor injury, channel your energy to heal."
Yu Huan Shui, a bit impatient, pushed away his big hand. Just a palm strike, how bad could it be? This primitive man was strong but immature in mind.
"Little brother, you heard all that, right?"
"That guy Da Jianbi called out the name of his Visualized Item, Labyrinth of Lies!"
"His ability is lying, he can turn his lies into reality!"
Yu Huan Shui was excited; knowing the ability made things easier.
"Ugh ugh!"
The primitive man started tugging at Yu Huan Shui’s sleeve again, aggrieved.
"Stop messing around, we’re talking business!"
Yu Huan Shui frowned, but immediately froze.
Underfoot, the ground was suddenly red, the primitive man continuously spewing blood, relentlessly as if the blood cost nothing.
He was seeing it clearly from above, just one palm strike from Da Jianbi shouldn’t hurt that much, how come?
Something’s off.
"Don’t speak, let me do it."
Li Xiaobai stopped Yu Huan Shui, contemplating for a moment before looking at the primitive man, "You got seriously injured by that palm strike, right? You’re about to die, right?"
"Roar!"
The primitive man groaned softly, nodding continuously.
Miraculously, the primitive man’s profuse bleeding suddenly abated, no longer coughing blood, just his chest heaving dramatically, breath unsteady.
Li Xiaobai’s eyes gleamed, "It worked, just as I suspected!"
"What’s going on?"
"You just lied, you leveraged his Law of Lies, so that means the guy’s ability indeed involves lying!"
Yu Huan Shui was stunned, being able to heal a severe injury with just words, it’s terrifying.
Li Xiaobai shook his head, "It’s lying, yes, but you got one thing wrong."
"Simply lying doesn’t work; his law requires double lies to be effective!"
"Haven’t you noticed? That guy always utters two sentences every time, two sentences stand for two lies. Once he lies twice about the same thing, that lie becomes reality!"
"That’s his rule’s activation condition!"
