Chapter 1548: Rules of This Place

"It seems the further in, the stronger the methods that can be comprehended!"

Xu Que's eyes brightened slightly.

He scanned the surroundings.

It had been five hours since entering the second level, but he still hadn't waited for Su Cloud Sect Master and the others, and even Duan Jiude and Er Gouzi hadn't appeared for a long time.

With those two's abilities, it's impossible for them to be washed out in the first level, right?

And there were only two thousand people in total here. The first level cleared out 90% of the people?

This is definitely impossible!

So at this moment, there are probably other lotus ponds.

Thinking of this, Xu Que looked at the more than ten thousand mysterious lotuses in the depths that hadn't been cracked yet, and sighed: "Must hurry!"

"Ah!"

At this moment, a scream suddenly sounded not far away, attracting everyone's attention!

A man on a mysterious lotus was gradually rotting, and his aura was gradually weakening!

A moment later, his whole body exploded, and blood mist permeated the mysterious lotus.

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts, staring at that mysterious lotus...

"What exactly is going on?"

"Could it be that staying on the same mysterious lotus for too long will cause one to explode?"

Xu Que was also curious and shifted his gaze toward that mysterious lotus.

Previously, he had already cracked the boy's projection on that mysterious lotus, but didn't find any abnormality.

When the cultivator's aura completely dissipated, the primitive bell sound that had rung in the first level spread here again!

"Clang!" It sounded like it was seeing that cultivator off!

"Clang!" It rang twice!

Everyone around realized something!

It should be that someone else had suddenly exploded in a place beyond their sight!

"What exactly is going on? What exactly are the rules of this level!"

"You ask me, who should I ask!"

For a time, everyone was panicked!

At this time, the bell sound rang again in this small world!

A middle-aged cultivator on the edge of the lotus pond exploded, flesh and blood flying!

Everyone's heart, which hadn't calmed down, instantly surged again...

Xu Que couldn't help but frown, starting to think.

The cultivator just now was comprehending the mysterious lotus method, but his state of mind was disturbed by him.

After Xu Que cracked the boy's projection, that cultivator returned to that mysterious lotus.

When Xu Que left, he even mocked him to rest early, as he hadn't comprehended a secret method after so long.

Therefore, Xu Que couldn't help but infer that his sudden erasure might be related to the rules of this place. As for what exactly it was, he didn't care.

"They must have triggered some restriction, which is why they were expelled by this heaven and earth!"

"Is that expulsion? This is completely erasure!"

Everyone started discussing, wanting to figure out why those people died.

Suddenly! Someone seemed to realize something, looking at the lotus mark on their wrist!

For the next hour, the bell rang continuously!

The many white lotuses in the center of the lotus pond had now turned into blood lotuses, which were eerie.

"More than three hundred!"

Since the first bell rang, more than three hundred cultivators had died!

At this moment, everyone finally understood the rules of this level!

About three hours, if one cannot comprehend a secret method, they will be erased by this heaven and earth!

But no one knew, if one couldn't comprehend the second secret method, would they die after a few more hours?

Some cultivators who comprehended three secret methods were naturally more relaxed.

With their talent, as long as they didn't challenge the secret methods in the depths of the lotus pond, it wasn't difficult to ensure they passed the level.

As for Xu Que, having mastered all ten thousand secret methods of this level, he was naturally fearless!

If it weren't for the system helping to cover the heavenly secrets of this small world, he would have already gone to the third level.

Five hours later.

Xu Que had cracked all the boy projections in the lotus pond.

The Buddhist secret methods he mastered also exceeded twenty thousand, reaching more than twenty-six thousand, and at the same time, his Righteousness Sealing Demon Sutra was successfully unsealed to the second stage.

Xu Que believed that after opening the mad demon state, he could completely fight a high-stage Immortal Venerable head-on!

If his cultivation level was raised to the Immortal King realm, after opening the Righteousness Sealing Demon Sutra, he would definitely be able to crush a peak Immortal Venerable!

However, the unsealing rules of the Righteousness Sealing Demon Sutra were not what he thought. When the number of secret methods mastered reached twenty thousand, the system no longer had any reminders.

This meant that if the Righteousness Sealing Demon Sutra wanted to be unsealed to the third stage, it might need to meet other conditions.

Without Xu Que's disturbance, the comprehension efficiency of the cultivators was obviously much higher.

But even so, in the past two hours, people still kept exploding into blood mist and dissipating between heaven and earth.

At this time, someone finally discovered this exception, Xu Que!

"Have you noticed? Xu Que of the Exploding Heaven Gang seems to have never comprehended a single boy projection along the way!"

"Now that you mention it, it really seems so. Why is he fine?"

"Could it be that he has some secret treasure that can conceal the heavenly secrets?"

When they spoke of this, everyone instantly became interested!

It had long been rumored that the leader of the Exploding Heaven Gang loved money like his life. If he really had that kind of treasure to conceal heavenly secrets, no matter the cost, it would be worth it!

"Fellow Daoist Xu! I have a doubt and would like to ask for your advice."

Before meeting Su Cloud Sect Master and the others, Xu Que was already prepared to leave the second stage, but he was suddenly called out to.

Facing the gazes of those people, Xu Que always felt like a little girl who had been stripped bare, and he couldn't help but cross his arms over his chest: "What for! This King of Acting Cool sells his art, not his body!"

Hearing this, the corners of everyone's mouths began to twitch. The cultivator who came up to talk hurriedly explained: "Fellow Daoist Xu, you've misunderstood. We have no interest in your body!"

"Eh? Am I, the King of Acting Cool, not handsome enough?"

Duan Jiude was stunned, then reacted, raised his eyebrows, and praised: "As expected of you!"

"Fellow Daoist Xu, we are just curious why you are not affected by this world?"

This made Xu Que frown, and he said fiercely: "What! Does my existence bother you?"

"This…"

Everyone was now curious about how Xu Que's brain was wired.

But considering his terrifying strength, they didn't dare to provoke him and could only explain nicely.

Only then did Xu Que look surprised: "So that's how it is! It wouldn't hurt to tell you all!"

Hearing this, everyone's eyes showed a sense of gratitude, and they said in unison: "Fellow Daoist Xu is righteous!"

However, everyone just looked at Xu Que, waiting for guidance from the big shot.

After being silent for dozens of breaths, finally, a sensible person reacted and started asking other cultivators for Immortal Crystals.

But if they don't buy this spot, are they still counting on winning a Buddha Seal at the Treasure Pavilion? I'm afraid no one can snatch more than the Heaven Gate!

Xu Que put away his storage ring and said: "How could I be so embarrassed?"

Watching his practiced movements, everyone was speechless…

"We admire Fellow Daoist Xu's demeanor. It is only right to give you some Immortal Crystals to buy tea to rinse your mouth, it's just…" The man said, then giggled foolishly.

"That is natural!" Xu Que replied: "Actually, it's not a difficult matter. Perhaps it's because I know all the secret techniques here, so there is no need to comprehend them at all."

"Since I, the King of Acting Cool, have mastered all the Buddhist secret techniques here, that kind of rule naturally cannot affect me."

"???"

Everyone's faces were full of question marks!

Mastered all Buddhist secret techniques?

Who are you trying to fool!
