Chapter 526 "The Unkillable Monsters (p2)"

“Let him go!” Zipping over like a lightning strike, Hong Ming Yue unleashes a barrage of energy blows to send the thing sliding backwards and smas.h.i.+ng it into the wall behind it.

Make no mistake, the girl's already a reincarnation level martialist, her offensive should've been devastating and more than enough to destroy any rock monster to dust. However, instead of reaching an acceptable result in that exchange, her following blows with the creature were the polar opposite of desirable results.

Sure, she did eventually manage to smash the grotesque thing apart with her final blow, but that's at the cost of her arms going numb and her internals churning with discomfort.

Unfortunately for them all, that wasn't the end of it either.

Looking around, the various treasures that the other people picked up earlier have also transformed into differing monsters. Many didn't even have time to react before being torn apart, thus sending them to the afterlife following the first exchange.

Though they're all capable in their own rights - these partic.i.p.ants – but such a bloodthirsty scene still left many lost on how to react before its too late. For example, Princess Qing Bi who had the weakest heart among her group could literally faint over this horrific picture that's constantly happening around herself. If not for the royal guard captain keeping the princess safe, the pampered girl would've perished by now when she tossed the treasure in her hand mere moments ago.

Then that's when the true horror unfolded….

From the shards of the defeated monster that once made up of the grotesque creature Hong Ming Yue defeated, there now stood two instead of one! Apparently, these lumps of smashed up earth had the power to collect itself and multiple!

Now that the was here, its not looking good. If the creatures are able to procreate on their own and at such an incredible speed, it meant the fight had just become a never-ending cycle. No matter how strong their stamina was, its bound to run out eventually.

“Feng Shen, have you noticed anything here that can help us solve this crisis?" Cong Lu (royal guard) asks, well aware of his friend's knowledge in traps and labyrinth formations, which was exactly what this long-time friend suspected.

For one, the chamber was oddly laid out like some kind of diagram, very different from how a normal room should be. Secondly, Feng Shen's been inactive ever since the whole battle started. If he's worried for Ling Yue's safety then there's no way he would stand idly by and not come up with a plan to secure the girl's safety. The latter being the biggest giveaway.

“Everyone, we must choose four individuals to close the switch levers that was pulled earlier. This is an eternal trap array. Unless we restore the formation back to its original state, the four secret compartments will continue to spew out the same monsters until we are exhausted." His words only raised some dubious doubts instead of trust in light of his goodwill.

It couldn't be helped. Ignoring the boy's terrible health condition and impression being that of a useless prince that couldn't protect himself, those switch levers are already surrounded by the monsters, making it a very dangerous maneuver. If a single person charges under such conditions, its very likely they would die in the process.

As a result of this hesitation and fear of being torn to shreds, none would move, leaving the party in a standstill of inactivity.
