Chapter 404
A gray world .
Gray skies .
Lu Sheng's and Xiao Zizhu's vision blurred as their surroundings changed . When they came back to their senses, the two were in a completely different, creepy world .
Numerous gray clouds blew past them as if part of a rippling river .
The ground was just gray concrete . There was nothing, and there was no end . No life, trees, stones, not even air .
The only movement in this world were the noiseless, floating clouds .
"You actually dare!! To open the Door of Pain!!" Xiao Zizhu's features were twisted in rage, his huge knife still stuck tightly between Lu Sheng's four arms .
"You forced me to . Perfect, I wanted to check it out anyways . I want to see what the legendary World of Pain looks like . " Lu Sheng was calm, his expression indifferent .
Xiao Zizhu stopped talking . As a high-level Devil born into one of the oldest Starry Sky Noble tribes, he had heard of the World of Pain before, just never been inside it .
Rumor had it that everyone who went inside either died or went mad . Most people, however, just disappeared without a trace .
No matter how powerful or how strong they were .
Now, he deeply regretted coming to make trouble for Lu Sheng . It hadn't been impossible for him to get out of this mission from the king, but it was too late now .
"You still want to fight?" Lu Sheng threw the knife to the side . He wasn't Xiao Zizhu's match . Just by blocking one such strike, around fifty percent of his muscles had been shattered, and it would take him at least ten breaths to repair all of them .
If they continued fighting, Xiao Zizhu definitely would not give him time to heal .
"Fight my a*s!" Furious, Xiao Zizhu slashed again . Huge amounts of Devil Qi shot toward Lu Sheng, but what frightened him was that as soon as the black Devil Qi left him and fused into the knife, he immediately lost connection with it . Mysterious forces in the air completely swallowed his Devil Qi .
So, the slash just became a normal knife slash without devil aura supporting it .
"They even limited Laws?" Xiao Zizhu's expression changed . He could feel his core Divine Technique, Nine Ghosts Devil Qi, instantly vanishing .
The main reason he broke through to Divine Lord was fusing his spirit into an ancient devil aura called Nine Ghosts Devil Qi that he created himself many years ago . From there, he completely harnessed the power in this type of Devil aura .
Nine Ghosts Devil Qi was a unique devil aura only he possessed . After fusing it with his spirit, he could cultivate even more of it, and formed a bloodline that could control the gravity of things . Even Xiao Zizhu's body was slowly affected, turning into an extension of this Devil Qi . One could say that he became a spokesperson for the Nine Ghosts Devil Qi . The Nine Ghosts Devil Qi was him, and he was the Nine Ghosts Devil Qi .
But right now, the Devil Qi he released had immediately dissipated .
Xiao Zizhu finally felt a sense of extreme fear .
It had been many, many years since he felt such a great threat .
He looked up to that human .
Bits of gold lit up on Lu Sheng, but then those gold flecks also got devoured by gray, shapeless things .
"Can we not use any supernatural powers here?" Lu Sheng retracted his hand and sighed .
"Pure body?" Xiao Zizhu glanced at the muscle definition on Lu Sheng, feeling worse by the minute .
Even though he had a strong body, when compared to this human…
"I heard that once you enter the World of Pain, it is extremely hard to exit . Only very few have succeeded . Even those who did went mad soon after . Do you know why that is?" Xiao Zizhu took a deep breath, forcing down his anger and anxiety . He decided to call it quits for now . This place destroyed his strengths, and if he fought again, he might not win . He should look to work together for now and finish the battle once they got out .
He was here to kill people, not to kill himself . Although the World of Pain was mysterious, there were still ways to get out .
Lu Sheng didn't know much about the World of Pain . Hearing Xiao Zizhu's words, he raised an eyebrow .
"What are you saying? Do you know how to get out?" He had used the pieces from the Door of Pain and the power of them both combined to open the Door of Pain . His original idea was to throw Xiao Zizhu into the World of Pain, but he accidentally also got caught up in it .
Right now, the key was not to fight to the death, but to find a way out .
"Do you know why this is called the World of Pain?" Xiao Zizhu didn't live this long for nothing . He knew some insider info .
"Why?"
"Because… to do anything here, you must first make yourself feel pain to see hope's way . " Xiao Zizhu whispered .
"You think I'll believe you?" Lu Sheng snickered .
"Your choice . " Xiao Zizhu didn't want to talk with this person anymore . He glanced around . Both of them were suspended in air . Looking down, there was nothing . Just flat earth .
"To see the real things and find the way out, you must first make yourself feel pain . " Xiao Zizhu remembered one sentence he read previously in a book .
He closed his eyes and let the devil aura within him stir up his organs . Not to the point where they would get permanently damaged, but to a certain degree . Great forces started tugging and pulling on his organs .
Waves of sharp pain shot up from his abdomen, spreading to his entire body . The creepy thing was that this pain continued upward through his veins, soon reaching his brain and into his eyes .
