Reincarnation Ghost...
Wu Wang, whose identity had just been exposed, cast a aningful glance at Lin Jing.
However, he didn’t say much and directly led the group forward.
After rushing in a certain direction across the plain for so distance, the four finally discovered an invisible barrier.
Passing through the barrier, the scenery of the plain instantly transford into a dense forested mountain landscape.
The group was surprised and passed through the barrier several tis to study it briefly.
In the end, Wu Wang concluded:
“This probably isn’t so spatial technique but rather a segnted landscaping within a large spatial area, creating different sceneries in different zones.”
“This kind of fragnted landscaping gives people the illusion of a shifting space.”
Lin Jing added, “This landscaping thod doesn’t seem to be an illusion technique...”
Wu Wang nodded but hesitated, saying, “Or maybe it’s a high-level illusion we just can’t see?”
At this mont, Ouyang interjected, “Whether it’s real landscaping or an illusion, what’s the point of dividing the area into grid-like zones?”
“I’m thinking it might be so kind of puzzle formation.”
“We might have to solve this puzzle formation to break through the entire Black Ice Domain.”
While analyzing, a sudden inspiration hit him, and his eyes lit up:
“Have you ever played a ga called 'Huarong Dao'? It’s a ga where various tiles are scrambled, and the player needs to arrange all the tiles properly.”
“The entire Huarong Dao space has a blank tile to allow other pattern tiles to move.”
“So, could the key to unlocking the Black Ice Domain be finding the blank tile, then moving the surrounding tiles until the scattered pattern is restored to its final complete form?”
Ouyang’s theory imdiately made Lin Jing and Wu Wang fall into deep thought.
Obviously, both felt this explanation made a lot of sense.
Lin Jing even directly asked Wu Wang, “Is the ‘treasure tile’ you ntioned possibly the key blank tile?”
Wu Wang shook his head: “I only know the path. Whether it’s the blank tile, we’ll only know once we get it.”
Lin Jing nodded: “Alright, then let’s not waste ti studying the grid boundary barrier for now. Let’s head directly to the treasure tile.”
Wu Wang nodded slightly but glanced at Jiang Ye with so puzzlent before moving.
After all, the three had each expressed their opinions during analysis, but Jiang Ye hadn’t said a word.
In truth, Jiang Ye didn’t agree with Ouyang’s theory... Although it sounded plausible.
Mainly because another discarded clone of his stood on the chessboard.
He could clearly see that this wasn’t a Huarong Dao ga but a giant chessboard.
And on this entire chessboard, there was no “blank tile” at all.
The Huarong Dao idea was probably just a distraction created by Lin Ling.
The twenty-plus people led by He Lulu also seed to be exploring in this direction, searching for a “blank tile.”
This wrong direction might waste them a lot of ti.
Of course, these scrambled patterns might indeed have so aning...
Jiang Ye didn’t want to reveal that he had extra information.
So he nodded to Wu Wang and said, “Alright, let’s go to the ‘treasure tile’ and see if it’s the ‘blank tile.’”
It was also a good opportunity to get familiar with the environnt.
While the four walked inside the chessboard, exploring the surroundings, Jiang Ye on the chessboard above was itching to study it but didn’t dare to stare too obviously.
After all, he wasn’t the only one on the chessboard.
Besides, the two giant snakes circling in the air were the real focus now.
If he ignored the snakes to stare at the chessboard, it would look a bit odd.
Still, while watching the snakes, he occasionally glanced toward Lin Ling, trying to read from her expression whether she knew about Lin, Zhou, and others entering the Black Ice Domain.
Unfortunately, Lin Ling’s attention remained fixed on the white snake, her expression revealing nothing.
As the white and black snakes circled and danced, her face grew solemn. With a casual wave of her hand, she seed to summon all the surrounding water vapor.
The water vapor quickly condensed into a water screen.
The water screen displayed the area inside the White Tower where Xu Gou and Peng Gu were located.
She stared coldly at the two piled on top of each other, Xu Gou and Peng Gu.
After a mont, she suddenly asked Zhou Yuling, “Why would you take in such a Heavenly Net mutant?”
Zhou Yuling’s expression hesitated slightly, his voice sowhat weak: “I’ve dealt with this guy before in the Secret Realm Tower. His strength is very weak...”
He trailed off, obviously reluctant to continue.
Lin Ling shot him a glare, her eyes intimidating, and said coldly:
“Nowadays, aren’t there plenty of people who pretend to be weak but are actually strong?”
Saying this, she glanced aningfully at Jiang Ye.
Jiang Ye thought: What does that have to do with ?
He calmly continued watching the water screen.
Xu Gou propped himself up, his face gloomy.
Peng Gu, lying atop him, looked even more sullen.
The mist-colored protective shield above them was now stained pitch black with sli, as if the stench could be slled through the water screen.
Peng Gu’s voice changed tone, filled with anger:
“You promised a ninety percent chance, didn’t you?? What’s going on now?!”
Xu Gou’s face also looked bad, but he still retorted sarcastically:
“Haven’t you heard of Murphy’s Law? This is just a small probability event happening!”
Peng Gu was already furious, and hearing him talk back made him even angrier: “Damn it! Are you ssing with ?”
“I’m risking my life for you, and you tell about Murphy’s Law?!”
Xu Gou’s foul temper didn’t back down, replying halfway through: “I’m not...”
But this ti he stopped mid-sentence.
His face suddenly changed drastically.
He seed to sense sothing, a flash of delight passing through his eyes.
Yet he also frowned, muttering: “What’s going on? Why didn’t I notice earlier?”
Peng Gu, not knowing what trick he was playing, frowned and asked, “What? What’s going on?”
“Could Zhou Yuling have given the White Tower so extra support again?”
After saying this, he felt sothing was off.
Because Xu Gou’s expression was both puzzled and pleased.
So... it should be good news?
Xu Gou didn’t explain further but muttered sternly to himself: “Forget it! All in!”
He sharply ordered Peng Gu: “Temporarily withdraw your protective shield!”
Peng Gu frowned even more but knew the situation was too urgent to explain.
So he removed the shield while muttering, “This thing wouldn’t last long anyway...”
With the shield gone, a massive wave of rotting sli rushed toward them fiercely!
It looked as if all the sli inside the White Tower actively targeted them!
Xu Gou, posing like a toad doing a “toad skill,” truly looked like a toad crawling out of a filthy ditch, stinking to high heaven!
Peng Gu, on top of him, barely waved a black veil to fend off the sli assault.
Xu Gou did not resist; his hands still pressed on the ground.
But in an instant, his entire palms seed to emit scorching steam.
This strange steam dissolved the sli on his hands...
Thus, this muscle-bound man covered in foul rotten sli had only his palms exposed as normal flesh.
Oh, and those exposed palms weren’t “normal” either.
They were almost like bloody hands!
Xu Gou’s eyes turned fierce, and he slamd his bloodied hands onto the ground.
With a “boom,” the entire interior of the White Tower trembled even more violently!
Other players, unaware of the cause, assud Zhou Yuling was punishing them with this thod.
At this mont, many from both the big brother faction and the younger brother faction in the massive crowd were begging Zhou Yuling for rcy.
Especially the younger brother faction, who pinned all the bla on Xu Gou, hoping she would spare them...
Of course, Jiang Ye’s small squad in this scene had completely lost combat effectiveness, finding it difficult to mount any targeted attack on the White Tower.
But within Jiang Ye’s squad, there was one exceptionally special person.
Others were more or less covered in corrupt sli.
This “Jiang Ye” was steaming with blood and exuding steam.
The key point was that the steam seed to dissolve the sli!
So many players deliberately got close to this “Jiang Ye,” trying to absorb the steam on him forcibly...
But soon, those players discovered—
The steam’s damage was just as terrible as the corrupt sli!
Their sli was dissolved, but their bodies felt like they had radiation burns!
Therefore, the players quickly weighed the pros and cons and dared not use that strange steam to dissolve their own sli again.
However, just as they moved away from the strange “Jiang Ye,”
The White Tower trembled even more violently...
At the sa ti, that strange “Jiang Ye,” steaming with blood, seed to be propelled by his own blood as he shot straight toward Xu Gou and Peng Gu!
Obviously, this strange “Jiang Ye” was actually Yu Mo, the reincarnation ghost who had replaced Zhang Minghan’s clone!
Yu Mo was already in imnse pain, his consciousness fading.
He roughly understood what he was experiencing—
The Witch Gui big shot had him invade the monster player, intending to see if the red dot on his chest would spread into the Heavenly Net Organization’s distinctive blood-colored patterns after turning into a monster player.
He was currently undergoing the painful process of his body forming the blood-colored patterns...
But no one told him this process would be so agonizing!
He even suspected this process, like players summoning monsters to invade, carried a great risk!
What if he couldn’t endure it and died during the formation of the blood-colored patterns?
The Witch Gui big shot was truly ridiculous!
At such a critical mont, he wasn’t guarding Yu Mo’s side and had sent him into such a chaotic and dangerous situation...
Wasn’t that clearly sending him to die?
He almost suspected that Witch Gui just wanted to torture him and let him die more painfully!
But Yu Mo was utterly powerless to resist, his consciousness becoming increasingly chaotic...
In the chaotic haze, he dread he had beco a rag being scrubbed by soone...
And indeed, that was exactly what happened.
Xu Gou, under the astonished gazes of everyone inside the White Tower...
Directly grabbed the steaming “Jiang Ye” and used him to steam himself like a sauna towel.
And that “Jiang Ye” was truly treated like a sauna towel...
The rising steam quickly cleared the corrupt sli all over his body.
Xu Gou washed clean, no longer stinking, but transford into a blood man just like Yu Mo.
After finishing all this, he turned to the dumbfounded Peng Gu and said:
“Take him down, stack him on my back, and hold him steady so he doesn’t fall!”
“Watch use him to complete a miraculous coback, turning Murphy’s Law back to a ninety percent chance!”
Xu Gou’s tone was arrogant and confident!
Peng Gu had no choice; unlike those younger brother factions, he was tied to Xu Gou’s ship.
So he didn’t say much and followed Xu Gou’s instructions, firmly placing Yu Mo on his back.
However, during the process, he quickly frowned:
“What the hell is this steam? If I keep holding him like this, my palms will be ruined!”
It wasn’t that he hadn’t considered using gloves, gauntlets, protective clothing, or control-type glyph pattern abilities or skills.
But no matter the tool or ability, the steam seed to dissolve them all!
This existence, with terrifying destructive power over almost all tools and abilities...
Made Peng Gu think of one word—radiation!
What the hell?!
Could this steam actually be radiation?!
If he kept holding on like this, wouldn’t he mutate?!
Could these Heavenly Net mutants all be created through radiation mutation?
Peng Gu now felt the situation was far more serious than he had imagined!
But he had no choice but to go all in!
anwhile, as he endured the radiation-like burning pain, he noticed sothing suspicious—
The steam destroyed all tools so thoroughly...
Yet this “Jiang Ye” still wore a mimic mask on his face...
How was this mimic mask so resilient?
Could it be that the most common tool, the mimic mask, was immune to radiation?
Thinking this, Peng Gu casually took out a mimic mask, hoping to reduce the hand burns when supporting “Jiang Ye” through the mask.
However, the mask he pulled out was almost instantly burned away by the terrifying steam...
So it wasn’t a problem with the mimic mask?
Could the Heavenly Net mutants’ condition be special?
Peng Gu couldn’t figure it out.
But now he was certain of one thing Xu Gou hadn’t lied about—
This White Tower might truly be a white snake creature!
After all, all tools were destroyed by the steam.
And the White Tower’s reaction to the steam was clearly biological!
Yet if the Heavenly Net mutants had such a powerful steam technique, why didn’t Xu Gou use it earlier?
Thinking this, he saw the steam swirling around “Jiang Ye” slowly invade Xu Gou’s body!
The blood man-like Xu Gou seed to forge a blood-red armor with the steam’s support, using his entire blood flow!
His whole body swelled visibly!
At this mont, calling him just a “muscle man” was no longer appropriate.
He was more like a giant!
The giant’s eyes glead with hidden excitent.
Steam slowly rose from his body, as if injected with a stimulant, driving him to slam fist after fist violently into the ground.
The entire interior of the White Tower shook more terrifyingly!
Outside the White Tower...
Jiang Ye witnessed the once feeble white snake suddenly raise its head and let out a piercing, mournful cry into the air!
Then, the massive snake body thrashed and struggled, seemingly in excruciating pain!
Jiang Ye was just watching the show.
Suddenly, he felt a sharp gaze piercing him.
Following the sensation, he saw Lin Ling’s dark expression as she said to him:
“The one who looks exactly like you, don’t you need to explain him?”
