I slay demons and monsters in a bizarre city.

Chapter 83 Necronomicon VS Book of the Dead

Although she had changed into a light and thin spiritual robe and her features had become even more alluring, Li Changgeng could still recognize her as the curvy girl he had met at the entrance of the Buddhist hall of Black Sea City University who had asked him for directions.

What does it mean when the girl says, "Welcome to Fengdu City"? Does this mean we've arrived in the underworld, Fengdu City?

The scene before Li Changgeng's eyes gradually became clearer, and the white light slowly faded away.

In the hazy light, the spirit robe fluttered on the girl's shoulders.

It was a thick, black book. The girl's long, slender, white fingers gripped the cover of the Book of the Dead, where three large, twisted, blood-red characters were clearly visible: Book of the Dead.

The girl flipped open the book cover, and on the other side were four large, blood-red characters: The Book of the Necromancer.

Was he performing a ritual to help the dead in hell? How did he end up meeting this girl?

The Book of the Dead, also known as the "Book of the Dead," is used to deliver souls and for judgment in hell. It can be considered a guide to judgment in the underworld and is used to convict.

The Necronomicon is different; it contains forbidden magic, even cosmic secrets, astrology, and summoning incantations.

Li Changgeng was quite puzzled by the idea of ​​combining the two books into one.

This time the situation was quite different. There was only this one girl in front of Li Changgeng, and it seemed that she had summoned Li Changgeng.

“I’ve seen you before, at Black Sea City University.” Li Changgeng saw the thick book in the girl’s hand. As her lips moved slightly and she chanted a hymn, colorful ancient characters flew out of the book.

"Right, what you saw was just my Dharma form." The girl stopped chanting the incantation, her light body gradually descending to the ground. "You can call me Oriole, or you can call me Xin, one of the Ten Heavenly Stems Ancient Gods. The Ancient God's name is Chongguang. I control darkness. Without my help, you cannot pass through the Eye of Light of Azazel, the Lord of the City of Light in the Sky Sea Floating City, so..."

Huang Li paused for a moment, looking at the dark and deep underground cave in the distance. "I am trapped here and can't get out. I suppose the only one who can help me is you, Li Changgeng."

"Cerberus has locked my soul, and I am currently in a coma. If you defeat that creature, I will gain immortality and master the power of darkness."

"That dog is sleeping soundly in the underground cave!"

It can speak, move, and even chant spells, so how come it's still trapped here?

There was no green countdown in front of Li Changgeng to bring him back to reality. Since this was the underworld, Li Changgeng was also curious to know if he could go to the Bridge of Helplessness, drink some more Meng Po soup, and also see that little girl Duanwu. If he could get their help, it should be easy.

However, this place is quite different from the Naihe Bridge that Li Changgeng visited. It is filled with coldness, darkness, and fear. He does know about Cerberus, a very ferocious dog whose bark sounds like the clanging of bronze.

"What if I don't go?" Li Changgeng sensed the danger in the underground cave. Since he was not in danger, he might as well be the sixth one and not go looking for trouble. Besides, this girl named Huang Li was not related to him, so why should he save her?

“This isn’t a question of whether you go or not. If you don’t go, I can kill you anytime! In the underworld, you are no match for me. Try me if you don’t believe me.” Huang Li stared at Li Changgeng, her expression turning fierce.

"Threatening me? You're asking for my help, can't you say something nice?" Li Changgeng had had enough of everything this digital time travel brought him. He really didn't believe that dying here would make a difference.

"Fine, then I have no choice but to kill you in the name of the ancient gods!" Huang Li flipped a page of the Book of the Dead, and with the sound of the page turning, a black eagle cried out and flew out.

Li Changgeng was prepared. He gripped the golden revolver in his hand and fired several shots at Black Hawk without hesitation!

Bah!
Bang... Bang!

Three gunshots rang out, and three golden Soul-Suppressing Nails pierced through Black Hawk, yet they did not cause him any harm whatsoever.

"Don't be silly, Black Hawk is a creature of Dark Souls, your thing won't work on him!" Huang Li's lips moved slightly, and three more, even larger, dark shadows flew out.

Li Changgeng took several steps back. The second blue card in the bronze shrine flashed, summoning the foul-smelling octopus girl. The octopus girl possessed the Eye of Devouring; devouring souls shouldn't be a problem, right? "My lord, why did you summon me out?" The octopus girl seemed even more terrified than Li Changgeng, frantically running away while clutching her skirt.

"Then why don't you go and do it!" Li Changgeng shouted angrily.

"Master, I'm scared!" Octopus Girl cried, her face contorted in a grimace. Two black eagles, one on each side, tore at her shoulders with their talons, lifting her up alive. More and more eagles appeared, pecking at Octopus Girl until her body was covered in bloody holes...

The second mythical card in Li Changgeng's mind also turned black; Octopus Girl was dead!
So weak?

Li Changgeng reached out and grabbed at the air, and the Shadowless Blade condensed into a golden light.

call out!
Draw your sword!

Draw your sword and chop!
With a flash of golden blade light, the black eagle flying towards him was cleaved in two. Then, a terrifying scene unfolded: the black eagle that had fallen to the ground miraculously reformed and came back to life.

The oriole continued chanting its incantation, and the shadows were dense and numerous. Li Changgeng was forced to retreat further and further, until he reached that bottomless, terrifying cave where Cerberus was.

But if we don't back down, we can't hold on any longer.

Li Changgeng slashed with a golden blade, killing and injuring countless Black Eagles. Within a few breaths, the dead Black Eagles came back to life.

"Blue Fox, Black Goat, come out and help!" Li Changgeng was gradually losing ground. Each of the black eagles was over a meter long, surrounding Li Changgeng like a black wall. He couldn't kill them all, he simply couldn't kill them all.

Inside the bronze shrine, the number 3 Black Goat card, with its five-colored hues, and the number 6 Nine-Tailed Blue Fox card, with its purple hues, both shimmered with a halo of light.

"My lord, have you stirred up trouble in the Black Eagle's den?" The Black Goat was as strong as a mountain, its two scarlet horns burning with eerie flames. With a punch, the Black Eagle Wall collapsed.

"This is difficult. The shadows are formed from dark spells, and we can't kill them!" The nine-tailed green fox simply transformed into its true form, with three fox heads and a body the size of a pavilion. Its six eyes were full of allure.

"I can't hold on!" The black goat swung its fist and knocked the black eagle over. Its large hand grabbed a black eagle and casually slammed it against the cave wall, turning the eagle's head into a bloody mess.

Black Hawks are everywhere, and their numbers are endless.

The black goat's face was covered in scratches from the eagle's claws.

The nine-tailed blue fox swayed its tail, exuding a mesmerizing aura, and the golden revolver transformed into the blue fox's bone fan.

With a gentle wave of his bone fan, a small whirlwind of red, bewitching energy formed. "You two go first! I'll try to charm these black hawks and make them lose their minds."

"Blue Fox, no, you can't bewitch them." The black goat punched and kicked, and the black eagles couldn't get close. The nine-tailed blue fox was quickly surrounded by the black eagles. The magic was completely ineffective against these black eagles, and the illusion magic was the same.

"Blue Fox!" The black goat tried to save the nine-tailed blue fox, but he couldn't succeed. The black eagle quickly formed a black wall in front of him.

"Go! I'll hold them off!" The nine-tailed fox's tails began to burn. The black eagle was scorched by the fire, and its attack weakened. The fox's nine tails intertwined, and it used its tails and body to block the cave entrance.

"My lord, there is no way to retreat. We can only enter the underground cave." Although the Black Goat is very powerful, the Black Eagle has no way to deal with the souls of the underworld.

Li Changgeng's Shadowless Blade slashed horizontally and vertically, its golden blade illuminating the dark cave. At this crucial moment, a green countdown finally appeared before his eyes.

00: 29: 59
In just half an hour, the ragged man in yellow appeared before Li Changgeng again. This time, however, he was not a faceless man; instead, half of his eye could be vaguely seen.

"If you can't kill Cerberus in half an hour, you'll die! Kill it, and you'll get it. You have no choice. Haven't you always wanted to understand what this countdown teleportation is all about?" The man in yellow, his face shrouded in mist, seemed to be sneer...
