Essence Power Sealed, a Contest of Flesh!
"I am not a bloodthirsty person. Go and choose the next eleven doors. If you are lucky enough to survive, I will spare your lives."
Chen Ning spoke calmly.
The cultivators from the Northern Territory felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
My whole body trembled.
Final.
They still headed towards one of the two doors.
Choose a door.
There is still a chance of survival.
But what if we become enemies with Chen Ning?
They are certain to die.
Left with no other choice.
They had no choice but to risk their lives.
But obviously...
They were unlucky.
These monks from the Northern Territory.
Aside from two lucky individuals who managed to open all three doors unharmed.
The rest perished in the first choice.
The two lucky ones were also swallowed by the magma when they chose the fourth door.
At last.
These Northern Territory cultivators, who had come with the Zhan Kuang, all fell in the first game.
Soon.
The first game is over.
Thirty-nine people died in the lava.
A total of sixty people from the four teams passed.
Hahahaha...
"Wonderful... truly wonderful..."
The voice of the God of Games resounded throughout the heavens and earth.
And this game.
Choosing which doors to go is purely a matter of luck, and that's secondary.
Conflict between people.
That's what excited him the most.
Now.
Everyone felt a little nervous.
Thirty-nine people died in the first game.
These thirty-nine people were all powerful individuals below the God Realm among the four realms.
He was a prominent figure in all four regions.
He has extraordinary talent.
Yet in this world, despair and resentment prevail.
I'm afraid it will be worse in the later stages of the game.
Many more will die in it.
This is even more brutal than simply fighting for a certain treasure.
During the struggle for the treasure.
The weaker party can be dealt with depending on the circumstances.
We can always back down.
At worst, we won't fight them.
But this kind of game.
But it's much crueler.
If the next game has similar rules, even more people will likely perish here.
"Alright, let's begin our second game!"
"Ghost catches people!"
The God of Games let out a sinister laugh.
It sends chills down your spine.
At this moment.
The scene before everyone's eyes changed once again.
The surrounding area was no longer filled with magma from the Earth's core.
Instead, it was a dense, gloomy forest.
The crowd's view was limited.
I could only see about a meter ahead. Beyond that, there was only endless darkness.
"You sixty people will engage in a thrilling and exciting game of tag in this Dark Forest. Some of you will play the role of terrifying ghosts, while others will be the survivors. The ghosts' goal is to capture three people to win, while the survivors simply need to be the last one standing to win."
"If you are unfortunately caught by a vengeful ghost, don't despair. You still have a chance. As long as you can catch three more people, you will win."
"In this game, I will seal your Qi Sea and divine weapons. You will be unable to use Essence Power or external forces, and can only compete with your purest physical bodies. Go and fully experience that primal pleasure!"
That concludes the introduction of the God of Games.
The others then had a basic understanding.
At the same time.
They clearly felt that their Qi Sea was sealed, making it impossible for them to mobilize their Essence Power to circulate throughout their bodies. Almost all of their Divine Ability and martial arts relied on Essence Power to activate, and they were unable to use them.
At this moment, everyone felt a sense of unease.
That feeling of unease, which I hadn't felt for many years, washed over me again.
The fear stems from insufficient firepower.
Absolutely right.
But.
This ban is not absolute.
First.
Cultivators at different levels have different levels of physical strength.
In addition.
There were also some people present who possessed special physical characteristics.
Take Zhao Xiuxiu for example. Although it's unclear what her specific constitution is, the fact that she's immune to magma from the Earth's core is definitely remarkable.
Needless to say, Chen Ning was even more so.
His True Dragon Body, and he possessed an extremely abnormal regenerative ability granted to him by the Eight-Armed Demon Venerable.
Moreover, he has eight arms.
It will also be easier to arrest people.
Physical strength is an advantage in this round of the game.
After explaining the game rules...
The voice of the God of Games has disappeared.
Chen Ning and the others were randomly teleported to various parts of this vast Dark Forest.
Chen Ning observed his surroundings.
It was pitch black and eerie.
Limited perspective.
In the darkness, each tree seemed like a terrifying monster.
Add to that the surrounding darkness.
It makes people hesitant to proceed rashly.
Fear of the unknown.
It is our nature.
But Chen Ning is relatively better off. If the True Dragon Body and the eight demonic hands were also disabled, then things would be much more chaotic.
At this time.
They were able to walk forward with ease.
Chen Ning's current status is that of a survivor.
He just needs to hide.
But he actively explored his surroundings, partly out of confidence in himself, and partly because he wanted to find Zhao Xiuxiu and Qi Yu as soon as possible.
Zhao Xiuxiu was kind-hearted by nature.
If he is a survivor, he might be deceived by those who are vengeful ghosts.
But even if I turn into a vengeful ghost, I'm not afraid.
If Chen Ning can find him, he can definitely help him hunt survivors.
But.
There's another thing that Chen Ning is quite worried about.
As long as it's within the rules, everything is negotiable.
But this rule is only superficial.
If the matter were simply to assimilate the survivors into vengeful spirits and that were the end of it, it would be too simplistic.
I'm afraid someone might want to eliminate them completely.
No matter who you are, kill them all without hesitation, exterminate them all.
In this way.
The number of people advancing to the next round will be kept very small.
His chances of winning are even greater.
Chen Ning frowned slightly.
This God of Games; in every round, there are cruel Principle hidden beyond the rules.
The game is just the outer shell.
The ones who will truly fight each other are these ninety-nine people.
As Chen Ning explored the surrounding area...
They also encountered cultivators from various realms.
However, they were all survivors.
Moreover, Chen Ning's strength was revealed in the previous round of the game, and they were all very wary of him, so they naturally dared not make a move easily.
So.
Chen Ning traveled smoothly throughout the journey.
At this moment.
Above the Dark Forest.
The voice of the God of Games echoed.
"Right now, there are only two vengeful ghosts and fifty-eight survivors in this forest. If they cannot capture three people, all fifty-eight of you will advance when the time is up."
Upon hearing this...
The cultivators who had been assigned the role of survivors relaxed somewhat.
With only two vengeful ghosts, there seems to be no need to be too worried.
They have a very high chance of winning.
Chen Ning, however, felt nothing about the data provided by the God of Games.
None of the people present were ordinary.
Those who are assigned the identity of vengeful ghosts will inevitably assimilate others into becoming vengeful ghosts themselves.
And.
The game is just the surface.
The real battle is between them.
So.
The original plan remains unchanged.
Let's find Zhao Xiuxiu and Qi Yu as soon as possible.
At that very moment.
The announcement from the God of Games rang out again.
Since the last time.
Only a few breaths have passed.
"There are now eight vengeful spirits and fifty survivors!"
Upon hearing this...
Many people were taken aback.
It seems strange.
Putting aside the speed of assimilation by vengeful spirits, even after assimilation, it's still a one-for-one exchange.
There were sixty of them in the Dark Forest.
The current total is fifty-eight.
Where did the other two go?
