Legendary Person: I brought my skills back to reality!

Qiao Xi paused, then finally turned her head, her bloodshot eyes staring directly at Xu Hao, her gaze so sharp it seemed to pierce his soul.

"We've been fighting that crazy chicken on Thursdays for so many years, we know it's not stupid!"

How many brothers have we lost fighting our way here? Does it not know we've already reached the door?

It's right there, laid out its trap, waiting for us to walk right into it!

"Do you think it wouldn't expect you to use your stealth skills to investigate?"

"It's hoping you'll go there first! It's definitely laid a trap, just waiting for you to walk right into it so it can get rid of you, its biggest threat!"

Luo Ming, Lao Qi, Lao Tie… they can't have died in vain! We paid such a high price to get here; there's no turning back, and no time for any more cautious probing and tricks!

She took a deep breath, her chest heaving violently, as if trying to expel all the sorrow and hesitation from her body. She released her hand from Xu Hao's shoulder, then swung it sharply forward, pointing towards the crimson abyss. Her voice became loud and resolute, echoing in the deathly silence:

"Now that things have come to this, there's no point in hiding it anymore! It's right there, and we're right here! Gather the rest of you, everyone, prepare for battle!"

Her gaze swept over each surviving team member, her eyes burning with a madness and determination that disregarded life and death: "We'll just charge in headfirst! We'll settle this once and for all!!"

Xu Hao looked at the resolute look in Qiao Xi's eyes and listened to her almost tragic declaration, and his heart suddenly tightened.

He instantly understood Qiao Xi's decision. When sacrifice has become an unavoidable price, when the enemy has figured out your habits and is on high alert, so-called cautious stealth may no longer be a good strategy, but rather become part of the enemy's calculations, putting yourself in greater danger.

At this point, the only option left is to go all out and fight head-on! He silently withdrew the energy he was about to unleash, gripped the hilt of the Dragon Slayer Blade tightly in his backhand, felt its icy touch, and nodded heavily.

Yes, there's no escaping it, so let's fight!

Qiao Xi took a deep breath, as if trying to transform all the grief and indignation in her chest into strength. She turned around, her gaze piercing as she looked at Xu Hao, her voice carrying an undeniable resolve:

"Xu Hao, things have come to this point, there's no need to hold back any longer. Call in all the brothers waiting outside! Now!"

Her tone was urgent, with a reckless determination, "Bring them all into the team, use their memories to trick them into joining, right now!"

Xu Hao felt a chill run down his spine and immediately understood Qiao Xi's intention.

This is to achieve victory in one battle, concentrate all forces, and launch the final all-out offensive!

Without the slightest hesitation, he nodded emphatically, his mental energy rapidly sinking into the depths of his consciousness, as if flipping through an invisible list, quickly selecting the names of those ancient masters who were already fully prepared and waiting near the entrance of Crimson Moon Canyon, and swiftly adding them to the current team list.

The addition of each name signifies the convergence of strength and a weighty responsibility.

After completing the team adjustments, Xu Hao raised his hand, and with a thought, a set of jewelry shimmering with an antique luster—a memory ring, a memory bracelet, and a memory necklace—instantly appeared on his body, replacing his original equipment.

This is the legendary Memory Set, possessing the powerful ability to distort space and instantly summon teammates. He concentrated, chanting the ancient and difficult incantation in a low, rapid voice.

Heaven and earth are one!

As the last syllable of the incantation faded, the runes on the memory suit suddenly burst forth with a dazzling white light, rippling outwards like water and forming a distorted portal in the space before him. Inside the portal, the scene was blurry, with only countless lights and shadows rapidly swirling and emitting a low hum, as if something was about to break through the barrier of space.

Almost simultaneously, behind Qiao Xi and the remaining team members, the portal constructed from the power of the Memory Suit began to fluctuate violently. The buzzing sound suddenly rose, and one after another, figures, as if pulled by an invisible force, stumbled out of the portal and appeared in this crimson underground space.

The flashes of light and the slight dizziness caused by the spatial fluctuations made the dozens of ancient experts who had just been teleported over momentarily disoriented. However, they were all seasoned veterans who steadied themselves almost the instant their feet touched solid ground, and their eyes quickly scanned the surrounding environment.

When they saw the enormous skeletal altar standing in the distance, the crimson moon demon crawling around, and the rooster on the altar radiating overwhelming resentment, everyone's expression instantly became extremely solemn.

When they saw the still-wet blood on Xu Hao, Qiao Xi, and the other survivors in the group, and the resolute look on their faces, they immediately understood their current situation.

Without needing to say a word, a somber and tragic atmosphere permeated the newly arrived reinforcements. They silently gripped their weapons, steadied their breathing, and stared sharply ahead, standing shoulder to shoulder with their comrades who had arrived earlier, ready to face this final battle.

Qiao Xi took two steps forward and stood in front of everyone. The dozens of newly teleported experts and the dozen or so survivors from the original team all turned their gazes to her.

All the living ancient masters are here.

The bloodstains on her body were still wet, her face was covered with sweat and dirt, and her swollen eyes were bloodshot, but her back was straight, like a flag about to launch a charge.

A crimson light shone from the distant altar, casting flickering shadows on her face.

“Brothers,” she began, her voice hoarse and weary, but more so resolute, clearly reaching everyone’s ears.

“We people, in a sense, have only survived to this day because we snatched our lives from the clutches of the King of Hell; we should have died long ago.”

She paused, her gaze slowly sweeping over the familiar and unfamiliar faces, especially lingering for a moment on the faces of her companions who had just been teleported by the memory suit, still bearing traces of the aftereffects of the spatial teleportation and shocked by the scene before them.

"Now that things have come to this, there's something I can no longer hide from everyone, especially the brothers who just arrived." Her voice lowered, carrying a chilling coldness.

“You need to understand that the place we are in now… has been tampered with by that mad chicken. Here, there are no resurrection rules like those of the continent of Marfa. If you die, you are truly dead. Your soul is scattered, never to be reborn, and nothing will remain.”

Upon hearing this, a suppressed sob rose from the crowd. Some of the newly arrived experts showed disbelief and horror on their faces, while the veterans who had fought their way in with Qiao Xi simply clenched their fists silently, their eyes filled with even deeper sorrow and anger.

Qiao Xi lowered her gaze slightly, as if looking at the blood-soaked, fleshy ground beneath her feet. Her voice trembled slightly, but she quickly regained her composure. "Just now, on the very path we came from..." She took a deep breath, raised her head, her eyes burning with anguish, "Luo Ming... Lao Qi... and Lao Tie..."

"They...they're all dead. They sacrificed themselves to cover our escape, to get us this far...they'll never come back, just like that..."
