Hell's Handbook-Chapter 357

Durands ability to resurrect was truly impressive, and he really did have an invincible body. However, he still suffered quite badly as the two statues chased after him. He would get stomped on every 20 or 30 meters, but that was also how he managed to draw the statues a few hundred meters away from the building in no time.

Lets go! shouted Su Jin. The four of them made a mad dash toward the main entrance of the building. The statues were still chasing after Durand and it was too late for them to get back to the building in time.

Shen Wu! shouted Su Jin once more. Shen Wu slammed his palms together and a sheet of ice suddenly appeared, turning the statues into two mounds of ice. Durand seized this chance to start running toward the main door as well.

But the ice that Shen Wu created could barely hold the statues back for even one second. That didnt bother him, however, and he just kept freezing the statues again and again to buy time for Durand.

Durand made it through the main door and they entered to see beautiful lights and majestic, colorful pillars inside the place. Meanwhile, the two statues were roaring angrily outside the building, but they did not dare to enter the building at all.

Our battle plan worked! said Su Jin as he patted Durands shoulder.

Durand glared at Su Jin. The plan worked, but his reputation as the top owner had been tarnished from the way he had to be treated like a whack-a-mole by those two statues. He was so annoyed.

Everyone proceeded to look at the inside of the building. This place seemed surreal as the walls gleamed with an iridescent glow. Liquid fell in drops from certain parts of the wall and exuded a lovely fragrance.

This is pure energy liquid! Natashas face lit up with delight. She said to the rest, Lets stop here for a while This stuff is very good for us, because it can train and quench our bodies regardless of how strong our physical bodies are now. Its the best stuff for making one physically stronger.

Theres no need to do that, right? We can just collect some in bottles, said Oscar.

But Natasha shook her head and said, We cant. Pure energy liquid is most effective immediately after its generated, so we have to use it the moment we can.

The rest nodded in agreement after listening to Natashas explanation. They did agree that this would be a precious resource that was difficult to find elsewhere, plus there was no time limit on this Challenge, so they could stop here for a while.

Several parts of the building was able to generate this liquid, so they found their own little corner and bathed in it. Su Jin could sense its benefits immediately upon contact with it. Black toxins instantly seeped out when it came in contact with the liquid.

His physical body was already extremely strong, and his body could be said to be as pure as jade. Yet, this pure energy liquid was still able to extract toxins from his body. That was amazing.

Time slowly ticked by. Su Jins body had gone from a normal flesh color to transparent glass, like a human sculpted from jade. If his chest werent still moving up and down as he breathed, nobody would believe he was a living human being.

And just when everyone was enjoying their soak in the pure energy liquid, a giant eyeball suddenly floated into the building. The eyeball immediately started sucking in the iridescent air in the building, but it also immediately detected Su Jin and his teammates. It flew into a fury and sent out a white laser beam that reduced Natasha to ashes.

Everyone became alarmed and got up to run when Su Jins voice rang in their heads, Everyone, dont move. This is a being with psychokinesis, so escaping is pointless. freeweb novel.co m

Su Jin had detected this the moment the eyeball appeared because he could sense a familiar energy exuding from the eyeball. It was not very powerful, but it was pure psychokinesis that was extremely concentrated. The white laser beam it shot out was also made from pure psychokinesis.

Dont move? Then? Wait here to die? thought Oscar to himself, but he obediently listened to Su Jins instructions and did not move. This was very risky for him because he had already used his teleportation crystal and puppet. If that eyeball attacked him, he was definitely going to perish.

I have psychokinesis too, so I understand this eyeballs powers well. Ive constructed a psychokinesis screen around you guys, so as long as you dont move, it cant see you, Su Jins voice resounded in their heads again.

Su Jin had carefully set up a few psychokinesis screens, which was a technique that wasnt difficult, but one that required a large amount of psychokinesis. If he used just a little less, the screen would not be perfect and that could cost someone their life.

Natasha did not die. She had used her puppet in time and managed to survive this ordeal. She too, was protected by Su Jins psychokinesis screen.

The eyeball was clearly surprised that the people it had sensed earlier had suddenly disappeared. It continued trying to search for them and finally floated away after about half an hour.

Everyone breathed a long sigh of relief. Oscar thanked Su Jin, Thank you so much!

No worries. Were teammates now, so its only right for us to help each other when we can, Su Jin shook his head. This Challenge was going to be very difficult, and each person was invaluable to the team. He was going to do his best to protect everyone.

Looks like this is not a safe place at all. If a similar creature comes along again, we might all end up dying, said Natasha as cold sweat dripped down her face.

Su Jin nodded. They had gotten lucky this time, because the creature had psychokinesis and was weaker than Su Jin. If that hadnt been the case, they might have gotten killed here.

Lets move on then. Weve already absorbed a lot of the liquid, so thats enough, said Durand to the group. His entire body was bright red, and it was clear that he had benefitted greatly from this soak.

Earlier on, they had made some observations about the structure of the building. They were now on the lowest floor, so they just had to keep climbing upward. A spiral staircase was the only way to the second story, except that this staircase was gigantic, and climbing it was as good as climbing a mountain.

The good part was that climbing a mountain was as easy as pie to these people. They could destroy a whole mountain if they wanted to. The size of this staircase was the least difficult thing in this Challenge so far.

As they made their way up the stairs, Natasha noticed something and said to the group, No wonder this place is called the Grave of the Gods look at what this building is made from.

They looked at where she was pointing to and saw that a nearby wall was made from gigantic skulls. The skulls were of all shapes and sizes, but they definitely used to belong to very powerful creatures which could have very well been gods.

Thats not the only part. Look at the stuff below our feet, said Su Jin as he pointed downward.

Everyone looked down and discovered that these werent really steps at all. The staircase was actually large femur bones stacked to resemble a staircase.

Oho this grave is pretty interesting! Shen Wu snickered. He was probably the one who got the most out of the pure energy liquid bath earlier on, because he had the weakest physical body among the five of them. Su Jin had a body equivalent to a demon, Natasha could transform into a dragon and had drunk more dragon blood earlier, so she was incredibly strong. Durand had an immortal body, so he was invincible, while Oscar had also specially done something to fortify his physical body before. Shen Wu was the only one who had not really done any physical strengthening at all.

So, when he bathed in the liquid earlier, his body had transformed completely. He had sensed the change in himself as even his bones had become stronger and gave off a warm glow.

In no time, they were able to see the second story. Compared to the first story that was filled with iridescent colored air, the second floor wasnt as enchanting. It was filled with the stench of blood and it made them feel like puking before they even entered the second story proper.

Watch out, everyone, this place doesnt seem too peaceful, said Durand cautiously. Just before he stepped into the second story, a jade piece he placed in front of his chest suddenly glowed brilliantly.
