"Hey, are you the one who’s joining?"
Wu Xiaode turned his head to look and saw a monkey appear in the spring water.
A monkey...
People from "Skywalking Divine Bird" could transform into a giant eagle, so by that logic, it made sense for soone from "Junkyard" to turn into a monkey.
With this thought, Wu Xiaode respectfully said, "Yes, Your Excellency, I’ve co to join ’Junkyard’."
In Holy Na City, it was no longer possible to join any of the three powers.
This was the last one.
He must perform well!
The monkey, wearing sunglasses and a basketball vest, said:
"Raise your right hand."
Wu Xiaode didn’t know what it wanted to do but raised his hand anyhow.
"Hmm, it is indeed this rope...soone is blessing you..." the monkey muttered to itself.
"Um—may I know Your Excellency’s na?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"My na is ’Deng’, you can call Brother Deng—but rember, I am in fact the monkey of the Five Elents. We also have a Stone Monkey, Fire Monkey, Water Monkey, and tal Monkey, each of them a peerless hero," the monkey said.
"That impressive?" Wu Xiaode followed the conversation.
"Of course!"
The monkey nad ’Deng’ sized him up a few tis and stroked its chin, saying: "You look quite sharp, kid. Let ask you, do you want to study waste sorting, or what?"
"I’m good with anything; I can endure hardship," said Wu Xiaode.
"Then there’s no problem. Let’s see which parallel world you co from..."
As the monkey spoke, it placed a green leaf on Wu Xiaode’s chest.
Imdiately, a series of numbers appeared on the leaf.
"Parallel World No. 1666? Ah, why does this number seem so familiar?"
After a mont of thought, the monkey slapped its buttocks and said, "I rember now! Your parallel world is the next one that will be destroyed!"
Wu Xiaode was stunned.
What?
It’s going to be destroyed?
"Hang on, monkey—sorry, Brother Deng, the world that was just destroyed was Parallel World No. 5432, so why is it suddenly my world, Parallel World No. 1666?" he asked.
"Because Parallel World No. 5432 fell into Parallel World No. 1666, creating many chain reactions, like those demons, they’ve all entered Parallel World No. 1666, so that one’s destroyed now," said the monkey.
Wu Xiaode’s breath stopped for a mont.
The destroyed parallel world—that was the one he and his group entered every night at midnight, wasn’t it?
He thought there were three years left.
It’s going to be destroyed now?
"So... Is there any way... to save my world?"
Wu Xiaode asked.
"Haha, that’s a tough question. I don’t know, probably only our titled powerhouses do," the monkey said.
"Can I et them?"
"Then dive down, keep diving until you reach the bottom; then pass through that hole there, and you’ll be able to et her."
"Ah, okay, thank you for the guidance," Wu Xiaode said.
He dove into the water and descended all the way until he saw a tunnel.
Following the tunnel, he didn’t swim far before he saw a light shining through from above the water pool.
There’s light!
Wu Xiaode swam toward that direction and soon erged from the water.
He found himself in an extrely simple secret room.
In the center of the secret room, there was a statue of an old crone.
"This feels so familiar..."
Wu Xiaode murmured.
The crone on the statue wore a mask that concealed her face, but Wu Xiaode rembered the mad old crone who stood in front of the restaurant.
Could it be her?
Whether it was or wasn’t—
Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind:
"She hasn’t appeared? That ans she’s busy sifting through the many mories in her head, too preoccupied to deal with you."
Wu Xiaode jumped in fright and turned around to see that it was the monkey wearing sunglasses and a basketball jersey.
It had followed him silently!
"Our boss, well, she’s a bit off ntally, so she rarely shows herself," the monkey said adjusting its sunglasses.
"Brother Hou, what should I do now?" Wu Xiaode asked.
The monkey patted his shoulder and said, "Most people would be killed by five hundred and eighty-one types of attacks when they pass through the water tunnel we just went through. You’re unhard, which proves she sees so kind of hope in you."
"Hope?"
"Yes, she almost never ets people; even the statue was automatically generated by Holy City."
"Now that she senses so kind of hope in you, think carefully—has she ever said sothing to you?"
Wu Xiaode reflected silently.
Yes.
There was such a thing.
She was looking for her son.
So, did she sense the hope of finding her son in him?
With that in mind, he did indeed have such an ability.
So...
"Granny Sun, are you there?" Wu Xiaode asked.
The statue didn’t move.
Wu Xiaode didn’t care and continued, "I can help you find your son, and there’s a high chance of success—but you need to help kill a ’Death God’ first."
Eliminate "Death God"!
Initially, the commission he intended to release was "Help Zhao Zhibing escape the threat of Death."
However, he had to complete a commission today to "kill Death".
If the commission was to kill Death, then Death could no longer threaten Zhao Zhibing.
He only needed to complete the commission, and he would have helped Zhao Zhibing escape the threat of Death.
It was a bit circuitous.
So the result was—
If he killed Death, he would have one more chance at a blank commission.
He still had 5 points of rit.
With that commission, he could ask a spirit skilled in searching to help Granny Sun find her son.
That was the plan!
"Is this a threat, or a request?" the monkey asked.
"No, my abilities must be activated by completing a commission, and that commission is to kill a ’Death God’ from parallel universe number 5432," Wu Xiaode explained.
As soon as the words fell.
The statue suddenly ca to life.
Granny Sun looked at Wu Xiaode and smiled, saying,
"I sense the Law of Causality on you."
"Your commission must be completed by you for the causality to hold, so I cannot personally kill that guy for you."
"But don’t worry, Brother Deng will give you a hand."
"Go!"
As soon as the words fell.
Whoosh——
Wu Xiaode and the monkey disappeared together.
...
The Holy Na City.
The rain had stopped.
That ant the shock from the world’s destruction had ended.
At a fighting ring sowhere.
Wu Xiaode stood before the ring, confused, "I don’t understand what she really wants to do."
"Idiot, of course, you should hurry up and challenge the ring," the monkey said.
"Why?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"Holy Na City is a gathering place for Laws; they will grant you a title based on your performance," the monkey said.
"You an——"
"That’s right, you must hurry to obtain a title. Only with a title can you hope to defeat ’Death God’!"
Drip, drip, drip!
A urgent beeping ca from the number plate.
Wu Xiaode looked down to see a line of small characters appearing:
"The professional known as ’Bloodhand’ has issued a challenge to you."
"This invitation cannot be refused."
Wu Xiaode’s eyes sharpened.
The inevitable had arrived. Since this guy insisted on a real fight, it was ti to settle this once and for all!
A flash upon the ring.
There appeared the long-haired man, appearing quietly.
"I am Bloodhand, now co up and et your death," the long-haired man said, full of satisfaction as he stared at Wu Xiaode.
"You do not yet know who will et their death," said Wu Xiaode.
"Hold on!"
The monkey suddenly shouted out loud.
Both n looked towards it.
Wu Xiaode was full of confusion.
The long-haired man’s complexion changed dramatically.
"Brother Deng! What are you doing here?" He couldn’t help but call out.
"Because you’ll have to wait!"
The monkey jumped onto the ring, pounding its chest with one hand and pointing at the long-haired man with the other, "I declare this fight must wait before it can proceed normally!"
"How long must we wait?" asked the long-haired man.
"Wait until he, too, becos a titled strongman before the fight can proceed," the monkey said.
The long-haired man gritted his teeth, his eyes twitching with anger, as he coldly said, "Fine, you’re taking his side."
After speaking, he vanished.
Wu Xiaode looked blankly at the monkey.
What just happened?
Why did the long-haired man leave right after the monkey spoke?
"Don’t worry about him, since you received the ’Top’ evaluation, then hurry and challenge the ring," the monkey motioned to him.
——Still clueless about what had occurred.
Suddenly, the Book of the Dead opened before Wu Xiaode, revealing rows of ice crystal letters:
"The monkey ’Deng’ has activated the Na Skill:"
"Wait a ’Monkey’ Mont."
"Once this skill is activated, it will delay a certain event until a specific condition is t before the event begins."
——So this is possible!
Is this the power of a na?
Wu Xiaode marveled at the revelation, looking down to see two more lines of small characters on the number plate:
"You must wait for certain conditions to be t before the current fight can proceed."
"In the anti, you may challenge others."
He felt a growing desire to obtain a Na Skill.
Suddenly——
Just a loud "clang" sounded, and three stars appeared above Wu Xiaode’s own head.
Along with them appeared rows of ice crystal letters:
"Warning."
"Qian Mingkui has accomplished certain matters."
"He believes he could not have done so smoothly without your help, and even though you are far apart, your earlier actions have still inspired gratitude and admiration in him."
"Current appreciation level: Three stars."
"The book resonates with Qian Mingkui’s soul and has extracted a skill from him."
"Congratulations!"
"You have once again mastered the ’Slaughter Spear Skill’."
"Slaughter Spear Skill."
"A combo technique, comprising three moves."
"You have mastered the first move: Block;"
"This move will inevitably block the enemy’s attack."
"You have mastered the second move: Lift;"
"Floating Skill, which will inevitably cause loss of control and float."
"You have mastered the third move: Rain."
"Thirty-six consecutive stabs, an unstoppable force."
"——This is a superb Spear Combat Skill."
