The Game with Fairies

In the darkness, there was a moment of silence.

After the huge head covered in arms and legs emerged from the darkness, Li Muyang immediately grabbed Fairy Liuli, warning her not to approach.

The creature before them was eerie and terrifying, with a crying head covered in disordered arms and legs, resembling an ugly and disgusting human spider.

Just the sight of it was enough to make one feel physically ill.

Fairy Liuli instinctively wanted to draw her sword.

However, when the immortal sword’s light swept out, it passed straight through the strange Spirit Medium without causing any harm.

Instead, the crying head began to wail and shake violently.

The next second, the surrounding darkness engulfed Li Muyang and his companion, and the blue light from the Dharma-Annihilation Wheel was instantly extinguished.

【You died. Game Over】

The moment the blue light disappeared, Li Muyang saw with his own eyes the bizarre arms and legs on the Spirit Medium’s head suddenly stretch out, sweeping towards him like a storm.

“…Is the Spirit Medium really that strong?”

Li Muyang muttered to himself in surprise as he was forcibly returned to reality.

Previously, in the third stage of 《Deadly Weed》, the Spirit Medium had always avoided him. Among the group of bizarre and strange evil gods, the Spirit Medium wasn’t noticeable, and Granny Gu had even chopped off one of its legs. Li Muyang had thought this creature was weak.

Who would have thought it would be so formidable?

Even Fairy Liuli’s strike with the immortal sword couldn’t harm it in the slightest.

Such a strange ability was truly terrifying.

Li Muyang pondered for a moment and then re-entered the game.

In 《The Call of the Mountains》, Li Muyang hadn’t used Jiang Xiaoyu’s character card, and Constable Wuming hadn’t eaten the Spirit Medium’s Leg Bone.

Therefore, facing Constable Wuming, the Spirit Medium struck with full force.

Considering the opponent’s strange abilities, Li Muyang decided to avoid this creature.

After reloading the save, he and Fairy Liuli ran through the darkness for a while, and after estimating the time, Li Muyang led Fairy Liuli to take a detour, trying to bypass the area where the Spirit Medium was known to lurk.

However, after detouring for at least twenty li, they were already in a different direction.

This time, it wasn’t the Spirit Medium that appeared.

At the moment when the evil spirits descended in the darkness, a blood-red health bar emerged from the shadows.

【Living God】

A blood-red sedan chair flashed and disappeared into the darkness.

The eerie crimson tide, like a sea of blood, overwhelmed everything.

Li Muyang and Chu Qingxue tried to resist, but the sword light and spinning wheels they released only shone for an instant in the darkness before being engulfed by the sea of blood.

【You died. Game Over】

“…Even the Liuli Immortal Sword couldn’t withstand this thing?”

Li Muyang was slightly shocked.

Previously, the spirit medium had just managed to dodge the sword light of the Liuli immortal sword with its abilities, but this time, the Living God crushed them with brute force, casually crushing Li Muyang and his companion to death.

Even though Fairy Liuli’s cultivation wasn’t top-notch and couldn’t unleash the true power of the immortal weapon, this Living God, among the ancient evil gods, was just a minor existence!

A single Living God could kill Chu Qingxue, who wielded the Liuli immortal sword, with sheer power?

Li Muyang swallowed hard, feeling a cold chill creeping over his body.

This terrifyingly powerful force, this authority… the evil gods wandering the dark land were mere projections!

They were their true forms!

This was completely different from the previous game.

In the third stage of 《Deadly Weed》, although they had seen a spectacle of demons running amok, that was thousands of years ago, and only projections had descended.

However, 《The Call of the Mountains》 was an event that took place in the same era and spatial coordinates as Li Muyang.

What Li Muyang encountered were the true forms of the evil gods!

That meant, beyond the misty sea, within the southwestern mountains of the Heavenly Origin Dynasty, there really was an Ancient Grudge Well teeming with all the ancient evil gods.

The dark turmoil, the end of the mythological era, had not taken these terrifying evil gods with it.

They all survived and could return to the human world at any time…

“This really is quite the surprise!”

Li Muyang muttered to himself, feeling pressure in the game for the first time.

“It’s true that the more you know, the more panic sets in.”

Li Muyang gave a bitter smile, suddenly regretting playing this game.

It was clear that even if one completed 《The Call of the Mountains》, it wouldn’t matter against these evil gods.

These gods were not something he could handle at his level, and even those at the Purple Mansion realm might not be able to…

Hmm?

A lightbulb went off in Li Muyang’s head as he thought of the chat group.

The big shots in the chat group all wielded immortal weapons and were powerful beings of the Purple Mansion realm.

Their strength was much greater than Li Muyang’s.

Li Muyang had no way to deal with the evil gods in the Ancient Grudge Well, but perhaps these big shots could flex their muscles?

In the face of ancient evil gods, all creatures on this land were grasshoppers on the same rope.

After all, when the evil gods corrupted and poisoned living beings, they didn’t care whether you were of the immortal or demonic path.

Thinking about the purpose of these Purple Mansion big shots forming the group, which seemed to be related to the impending destruction of the world, they appeared to be trying to save themselves… Hmm… This seemed promising.

Li Muyang sat on the couch and pondered for a while. Instead of continuing the game, he opened the chat group.

【Blue Star III: Does anyone know the legend of the Ancient Grudge Well?】

【Blue Star III: I have personally ventured into the Ancient Grudge Well and witnessed the terrifying sights within. Isn’t anyone curious about what lies beneath it?】

Li Muyang sent these two messages repeatedly in the group.

He knew that although all the big shots had logged off, they could sense the activity in the group.

The last time Ziwei Heng logged on and spoke with Li Muyang for a while, the commotion had alerted everyone else.

Sure enough, after Li Muyang sent the messages six times, the avatars of the group members lit up.

【Blue Star III: I have personally ventured into the Ancient Grudge Well. Isn’t anyone curious about what lies beneath it?】

After Li Muyang sent this message again, there was an immediate response in the chat group.

【Dangerous Star I: ???】

【Big Dipper Star IX: ???】

【Ghost Star VII: ???】

A series of question marks appeared in the chat group.

Then came Heart Star VI.

【Heart Star VI: The Ancient Grudge Well is nothing but baseless talk. Blue Star III, you make a fool of yourself by trying to deceive us with such tales.】

Li Muyang chuckled.

【Blue Star III: Don’t believe it? I’ll show you some evidence.】

With that, Li Muyang opened the game and loaded the save file.

This time, at the moment when Fairy Liuli encountered the evil god, Li Muyang activated the game’s screenshot mode and took a picture.

He then exported the image from the system and sent it to the chat group.

–It’s all a game system, so having a screenshot feature makes sense.

It’s just that Li Muyang had never used it before, being too busy with clearing levels. It’s not a game for pulling out CGs, so why collect them?

This was Li Muyang’s first time using the game’s screenshot feature.

However, after this image was sent to the chat group, the group exploded.

A string of question marks appeared behind everyone’s avatars.
