Chapter 1023 – Losses

Of the people Ma Jue brought out, there were only twenty odd left, and they had lost more than half. The rest of the people were also trembling in fear. There was no longer the arrogance and domineering attitude of Soaring Sky. Relatively speaking, they would rather fight against an opponent that was stronger than them. Even if they lost, it would be better to be killed than to be enveloped in fear like this.

Even the people from Soaring Sky wanted to fight openly. Just by thinking about it, it was clear to see to what extent their hearts had collapsed.

“We’re almost there.”

Ma Jue let out a long sigh. Even though he had lost another seven or eight subordinates, the strange arched door had still disappeared. Not far ahead was a small stone path that led directly to the plaza outside the hall. After passing through the plaza, one would be able to enter the hall. The mister said that it was placed in the main hall, not far from the completion of the mission.

“I know that everyone is scared, but at this point there is no way out. After obtaining the Ice Sealing Spirit Stone, we can rely on the power of that Spirit Stone to safely evacuate us. If you cannot get back now, you know what will happen to you. ”

Ma Jue waved his arm: “We’re only missing the last step, everyone go.”

How could those Soaring Assassins easily rouse their emotions? They could only brace themselves and advance forward. Although Ma Jue was arrogant, his mind was meticulous. He chose four people with good lightness skills to walk in front, and if there was any danger, he would immediately retreat.

Humans were truly a strange sight. When encountering fear, even adults would turn into children. The four assassins would walk forward holding hands, fearing that they would be swallowed by something if they let go.

The four of them walked for more than ten steps before discovering that the stone path was not dangerous at all besides being slippery. Finally, the last one turned around and waved towards Ma Jue and the others: “You may come over, these frozen rocks are very slippery.

Ma Jue relaxed a little in his heart as he waved his hand and commanded, “I’ll be walking in the front. Those who have supplies with them will follow me while the rest will follow behind me.”

Just as he took a step forward, the stone path in front of him changed. The path turned intunnel, with round walls in the previously empty area. The four people held hands as they entered the tunnel. The light suddenly dimmed, making them tense up. Not caring about their pride, the four of them started to sprint backwards.

But suddenly the tunnel began to move, swinging back and forth like a giant worm, and the four men stumbled in it until they could barely stand. The tunnel became soft and there was a stench.

From a distance, An Zheng closed his right eye and the three dark purple star point in his left eye quickly rotated. Moments later, An Zheng, who had clearly seen what it was, also turned pale.

It was nounnel at all, but a piece of intestines.

The four assassins were insidiece of intestines. Mucus unceasingly fell off from the walls of the intestines, and green smoke came out from them after they stuck to the body. The person who was corroded by the mucus howled out in pain and fell to the ground. However, the situation became even more dangerous after he fell. The mucus had already passed his feet, and his soles were soon completely corroded. The remaining bones were also emitting green smoke as holes quickly appeared one by one.

The person who fell down rolled in his intestines, the mucus on his body increasing. A few seconds later, the first assassin turned into a skeleton, but it was still rolling. The speed at which the four of them died was terrifying. They did not even know who their opponents were, and if they did not know where they were, they would have died. The corrosive power of the mucus was so strong that it caused his scalp to explode and his pores to contract.

The bones were quickly corroded as well. In the end, the corpses of the four people disappeared, leaving only more mucus behind.

Ma Jue bellowed, he raised his blade and slashed down. A crescent-shaped saber light hacked at the outside of his intestines. The intestines seemed to be in pain for a moment before contracting and curling into a ball. Ma Jue slashed out blade after blade, each slash containing the power to split mountains and shatter rocks could be used to chop at intestines, and only caused them to twist and contract in pain, but to no avail.

Ma Jue’s eyes flashed with a cold light, he flicked his finger and broke his middle finger, smearing his own blood on the blade. He raised his blade and rushed forward. The red light of the blade split open his intestines with a ‘pu’ sound. The entire mountain seemed to tremble for a moment. Then, a furious roar could be heard. Although the roar was far away, it was so loud that it was deafening.

The intestines quickly curled up and rolled away, like a disgusting meatball.

Ma Jue took a deep breath, and looked at the newly appeared stone path with lingering fear. He turned his head to look, and saw that his remaining ten or so subordinates had subconsciously retreated, no one daring to walk in front. Ma Jue snorted, and took Mo Dao and walked out first. When stepping on the stone path, his feet felt somewhat painful. Moreover, it was extremely slippery. If one was not careful, they would fall down. Fortunately, after walking through this stony path, there weren’t any other changes. Finally, they reached the plaza.

The plaza outside the Ice Emperor Palace’s main entrance was extremely large. It was already at the darkest hour of the night, and the moon had already turned even darker. There were at most two hours until daybreak, but it was at that time that the darkest sky could be seen. Ma Jue had his men light up dozens of pearls, and those pearls floated around the group. With these pearls, he could feel a little comfort in his heart.

As the group walked along the stone path and stepped onto the square, they realized that every tile that was laid out in the square was engraved with a variety of faces. Furthermore, the engravings were extremely meticulous. Every face was extremely ugly. This place seemed to have collected the faces of all the demon beasts, forming a large picture. If someone were to fly up high and look down, the light would illuminate this place … They would realize that the gigantic picture formed by the countless faces was still a face. It waerson’s face, it was Emperor Zhuo Qingdi.

Looking down from high up in the sky, the outline of Emperor Zhuo Qingdi’s face was extremely clear, as if he was lying on top of it. His eyes were closed, as if he was deep in thought. However, the moment these people stepped onto the square, that huge face of his moved, and that pair of eyes opened.

However, Ma Jue and the others could not detect anything. The plaza was too big, to the point where they did not know that all the tiles and tiles on the ground combined formed the face of the Emperor Zhuo Qingdi, nor did they feel that the pair of eyes had suddenly opened.

Ma Jue carefully walked forward, when he suddenly heard a voice from behind him. He abruptly turned his head around, only to see the image of a demonic beast appearing behind him.

“All of you must die.”

Ma Jue slashed across and the shadow disappeared.

“All of you must die.”

This time, the voice still came from behind him. Ma Jue turned around again and a different demonic beast looked at him coldly with eyes filled with contempt.

“We will not die!”

Ma Jue slashed again, and the shadow disappeared again.

One after another, more and more phantoms of demon beasts appeared, each one of them different. The faces of those demon beasts were exactly the same as the faces on the tiles. They looked at Ma Jue with ice-cold eyes and repeated the same exact words.

“All of you must die!”

Ma Jue roared: It’s you who’s going to die!

He slashed out with his blade like a madman. He didn’t know why, but it was as if he couldn’t control his emotions. He just wanted to hack these annoying phantoms into pieces. His attacks were merciless.

“General!” The General doesn’t want it! ”

“General!” “General, what are you doing!”

Suddenly, the voice entered Ma Jue’s ears, allowing him to be in high spirits. His eyes gradually became clear, and he saw that his face was covered in blood. At least three or four of his men fell to the ground, badly mutilated. Wherever there are demon beast phantoms, where there are people shouting, you will all die. The thing that he was crazily hacking at was not the shadow of a demon beast, but the work of his subordinates. The person on the ground was smashed into pieces, and the person he chopped at least ten times at the most.

With a dang sound, the blade in Ma Jue’s hand fell to the ground, both of his hands trembling violently. However, he quickly picked up Mo Dao because he knew what it meant to lose control of himself. Once the people under his command knew that he was on the verge of collapse, they would all be finished before they could even enter the hall.

Holding the blade, he tried to keep his hands from trembling.

“They were invaded by the devils, you guys can’t see it.”

Ma Jue said coldly, and only now did he realize that the few people he killed were all carrying goods on their backs. The few of them had gone through rigorous training, and only the few of them were able to use some of these things proficiently. Although the remaining people had also come into contact with it, the difference was too great.

“You guys bring your equipment and come with me.”

Ma Jue knew that there was no time to hesitate, and the longer he delayed, the greater the danger. Who knew when those white-furred monsters behind them would catch up to them. Once they did, everyone would undoubtedly die.

“Hurry up!”

He gave the order in a loud voice and sped up his footsteps as he ran towards the direction of the frozen hall. The remaining dozen Soaring Assassins were already on the verge of collapsing. It was already difficult for them to persevere and continue running forward. The square was very big. After running for a long time, he realized that the distance from the main entrance of the hall was still that far. It was as if the distance between them had never changed.

“General, something’s wrong. The bricks are moving!”

Someone shouted, his voice trembling.

Ma Jue had already noticed that something was amiss. Every tile on the ground was moving steadily and there were no sounds at all. No matter how they ran, they didn’t move at all. The floor tiles moved in a strange trajectory like flowing water. They ran as fast as they could, and the tiles that were slow as they ran were slow as well. If they didn’t move, the floor tiles wouldn’t move either.

It seemed that he would never reach the Ice-Sealing Hall.

“The distance is not far, let’s go!”

Ma Jue shouted and was the first to jump up. After flying a dozen or so meters away, he felt an ice-cold chill in front of him. His body forcibly flipped backwards in midair, but the two Soaring Assassins behind him didn’t manage to return. Puff! Puff! The two assassins were dismembered in midair. The blood was hanging on the thin ice line. Only then could it be seen that there were quite a few densely packed roots hanging in the sky. These ice threads were very sharp. If they rushed forward, they would be cut apart.

Ma Jue swung the blade and threw it. The blade spun in midair and flew back, slicing off countless ice threads.

“Let’s go!”

He shouted and rushed out, the remaining seven or eight people following closely behind.

They had finally reached the entrance of the Frozen End Great Hall. Ma Jue turned around to take a look and discovered that all the corpses on the ground had disappeared. There was a long trail of blood on the ground, as if the bodies had crawled away on their own. He took a deep breath to calm himself down. He had finally made it in. He led the remaining seven or eight people into the main hall. Suddenly, he heard footsteps behind him, he turned around and saw a short figure standing at the door. Because his back was facing the light, he could not see anything.

Blood dripped from the man’s head, and the sound of dripping was so piercing that it made everyone’s heart twitch.
