Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 1252: Chapter 67: Silence and Respectability (Part 6)

Su Xiao rushed towards the Spirit of Battle Armor swiftly. With each step forward, a wisp of green smoke arose beneath his feet, and the durability of the Counter Shield around him dropped significantly.

The Spirit of Battle Armor watched Su Xiao charging head-on. Initially intending to pry the ”Destruction Stone” from its armor plates, it inexplicably stopped. It scanned Su Xiao up and down, then ignored the ”Destruction Stone” and charged straight at Su Xiao instead.

Clang.

The long knife rang crisply, the area of the Counter Shield around Su Xiao’s upper body expanded, a heat wave hit him head-on, his hair tips began to singe, and his skin prickled painfully in the heat. In this environment, Su Xiao could only exert 30% of his full strength, which was already the limit.

Su Xiao couldn’t unleash his full power, and the situation for the Spirit of Battle Armor was worse—it could barely stand.

The blade slashed towards the Spirit of Battle Armor. Its legs spread apart, low-temperature lava splattered, and with a heavily injured body, it dodged a slash from Su Xiao.

The Spirit of Battle Armor’s posture could only be described as bizarre. Its legs were spread, right fist at its waist, while the left hand reached for the spine of the Dragon Slash.

As a long knife user, there was no way Su Xiao would let the enemy easily grasp his long knife.

The long knife feinted, slashing at the Spirit of Battle Armor’s wrist from an exceptionally tricky angle.

Clang.

Sparks flew, half-melted armor plates were slashed off, the Spirit of Battle Armor’s left arm involuntarily lifted, and at this moment, its right fist punched out.

The sonic boom exploded abruptly, the Spirit of Battle Armor’s punch seemed weak but was actually its ultimate ability, the ’Oscillating Cannon Punch’. Being hit by this punch was not simply a matter of breaking a few bones.

Su Xiao instantly felt his hair standing on end. He didn’t hesitate to use Dragon Shadow Flash to penetrate space.

With a booming sound, the Spirit of Battle Armor’s punch hit nothing, and a deep, bottomless hole appeared on a stone wall dozens of meters away, with cracks spreading around it.

The Spirit of Battle Armor looked down at its chest, a knife tip appeared in its line of sight, gleaming coldly.

The Spirit of Battle Armor, back to Su Xiao, lifted its right arm, fist clenching, with a crisp sound, the plate embedded with the ”Destruction Stone” flew up, heading straight for Su Xiao.

Su Xiao reached out and caught the armor plate, it felt a bit hot in his hand.

[You have obtained the Destruction Stone.]

Su Xiao pulled out the Dragon Slash from the Spirit of Battle Armor’s body. It turned to face him, its armor plates crumbling and flying off, revealing a very young face.

Su Xiao locked eyes with the Spirit of Battle Armor. It was already severely wounded, and after using its ultimate ability, it was clearly unable to hold on, especially since Su Xiao had pierced its heart.

A wisp of flame emerged on the Spirit of Battle Armor, it could no longer resist the surrounding high temperature. In a moment, it was engulfed in flames.

The Ancient Undead Clan, although between life and death, did not exist in the true sense of living beings, yet they too could feel pain.

Enduring the burning pain of the flames, the Spirit of Battle Armor did not even blink, let alone scream.

The flames first consumed the Spirit of Battle Armor’s lower legs, and with a thud, it fell to the ground, breathless.

The Spirit of Battle Armor originally had the chance to throw the Destruction Stone towards the entrance of the second floor of the Xiya Temple, a place fraught with danger, but it didn’t do so. Instead, it charged towards the stone corridor leading to Tianzhen Temple, because it wanted to know one thing—which enemy had it fallen into the hands of. It could perish, but not without knowing its enemy before being burnt to ashes.

Upon seeing Su Xiao, the Spirit of Battle Armor guessed his purpose was the Destruction Stone on its hand. Due to its hostility towards the Shadow of Annihilation Law, it decided to return to the center of the flame area and throw the Destruction Stone to the entrance of the second floor of the Xiya Temple.

However, Su Xiao’s pursuit made the Spirit of Battle Armor temporarily change its mind. In life, it was a battle madman, willing to wear the Soul Armor that made other members of the Undead Clan shiver, to become stronger. For the Spirit of Battle Armor, the greatest joy in life was fighting strong enemies.

It was furious when sent to guard the first layer of the Xiya Temple, because in its view, it should have died an honorable death on the battlefield, not here, continuing to guard even in death.

The loyalty in its heart made the Spirit of Battle Armor choose to endure, for it was the Great General of the Xiya Dynasty, and the orders of Emperor Xiya had to be obeyed no matter what.

Today, the Spirit of Battle Armor chose to die in battle here, fulfilling its duty by dying an honorable death within the Xiya Temple.

Su Xiao didn’t know what the Spirit of Battle Armor was thinking, but he felt that if he weren’t the Shadow of Annihilation Law, and had met the Spirit of Battle Armor in life, they might have had topics in common.

[You have killed the Spirit of Battle Armor.]

[You have obtained Ancient Undead Essence ×13.]

...

With the ”Destruction Stone” in hand, and given Su Xiao’s poor current state, he wouldn’t delve deeper into the Xiya Temple. Not to mention his current strength, based on his observations along the way, even a Fourth-tier Contractor might not be able to clear the Xiya Temple; the second floor might be manageable, but the existences on the third floor should be terrifying, like the Emperor Xiya in the deepest part, an extraordinarily fearsome being, with the Spirit of Battle Armor merely being a General under the Great Emperor.

Su Xiao held his breath, for with the explosive combustion of the Solar Flame, there was no more oxygen here, and the air was full of toxic gas.

Certainly, here is the translated passage:

```html

”A Mu, retreat.”

Su Xiao quickly walked back towards the stone corridor from where they came; the lava on the ground had already started to cool.

Rumble!

The ground suddenly shook, and Su Xiao turned to look. A Mu had unknowingly entered the deep fire zone, exuding a hint of cold air, holding a war hammer that was entirely ice blue.

Su Xiao had seen this war hammer before and had also figured out its origins. Tomb Guardian Reid had crafted two war hammers, one that was commonly used by him, having a fire attribute, and another left in the tomb with an ice attribute, used to suppress something.

As soon as A Mu picked up the war hammer, Su Xiao had a bad feeling.

”Retreat!”

Su Xiao shouted, but due to holding his breath, his voice wasn’t loud.

A Mu stood dumbly in place, with an ice-blue alchemy array diagram emerging in his pupils. If it had been in the past, A Mu would have retreated immediately upon Su Xiao’s shout.

Now, however, A Mu seemed to have lost consciousness, just standing there holding the ice-blue war hammer.

The Boundary Line on Su Xiao’s left arm shot out, wrapping around the war hammer. With a tug of his arm, A Mu was directly pulled down, yet he still did not regain consciousness, gripping the war hammer tightly.

Su Xiao didn’t have time to figure out what was wrong with A Mu. He dashed forward, dragging A Mu behind him.

The vibration of the Holy Temple grew stronger. Su Xiao quickly rushed out of the fire zone and reached the midpoint of the stone corridor.

”Phew.”

Su Xiao, running briskly, took a few quick breaths. As he retracted the Boundary Line, he pulled A Mu over.

A Mu remained dazed, his eyes entirely ice blue. Su Xiao retracted the Boundary Line and grabbed A Mu’s horn, pulling him forward. A Mu, with his thick skin, wasn’t prone to getting scraped from being dragged, but the ground might wear away instead.

Seconds later, Su Xiao dragged A Mu out of the stone corridor and entered Tianzhen Temple.

Inside Tianzhen Temple, Bubu Wang also sensed the situation wasn’t good. The surrounding vibrations had grown stronger, and upon seeing Su Xiao dash towards them, it immediately ran towards the exit.

Elisa was full of confusion, not understanding what was happening, until Su Xiao swung her onto his shoulder.

Su Xiao dragged A Mu with his left hand, carried Elisa with his right shoulder, and dashed towards the entrance of Xiya Temple at full speed. Beside him, Bubu Wang ran equally hard, tongue lolling out in joy.

In the fire zone, a mass of black mist emerged from the ground, forming into a humanoid silhouette, extinguishing all the surrounding flames.

Seemingly disliking the environment here or having sensed Su Xiao and the others, the black fog silhouette floated towards Tianzhen Temple at high speed.

Woosh—

A strong wind blew by as the black mist reached Tianzhen Temple, disappearing only after a brief pause. When it reappeared, it was already in the area where the Long Knife User was.

At the stone corridor leading to this area, a metal door slowly descended, and the black mist rushed towards it.

Bam!

The metal door closed with a gust of wind; it was protected by some energy and bounced the black mist away.

Behind the metal door, Su Xiao wiped the cold sweat from his face. He had seen that black mist, and it gave him nothing but a bizarre feeling. From his sensory response, he couldn’t think of a way to deal with that thing.

Reaching this location was nearly equivalent to leaving the area of Xiya Temple. Su Xiao wouldn’t return there unless necessary. If the first layer of enemies in Xiya Temple could still be managed with conventional means, some of the things in the second and third layers could only be described as bizarre.

With the Destruction Stone in hand, Su Xiao also obtained a Gold Quality Suitcase and 16 pieces of Ancient Undead Essence. Although he couldn’t exchange them for a Light-Gold Quality Suitcase, the fundamental value of these items was already high enough to trade for World Source, be used himself, or sold to others.

Additionally, Su Xiao obtained information about the Stone of Magic. Getting that item wasn’t difficult; interestingly, he had ’seen’ the Stone of Magic many times before.

With the Destruction Stone, Stone of Magic, and Shadow Stone, Su Xiao would head to the Annihilation Law Shadow’s relic.

Though the relic of the Annihilation Law Shadow is said to be fraught with dangers, being a Shadow of the Annihilation Law, Su Xiao thought the likelihood of encountering danger should be small, as Annihilation Law Shadows wouldn’t be foolish enough to harm their own.

Heading to the Annihilation Law Shadow relics and completing the adventure guild promotion task were the two missions Su Xiao had to complete before leaving this original world.

But before that, Su Xiao needed to understand A Mu’s current situation. A Mu was acting strange. This Honest Niu was clutching the war hammer tightly, occasionally smiling foolishly, and didn’t react even when its ear was slapped.
