Chapter 181: Chapter 143 Secrets of the Demon-Subduing Pass, Slaughter Battlefield! (5k)_3

Without a mask, the light from the Red Moon fell upon Luo Shuying’s delicate face, giving it an especially exquisite, aesthetically pleasing appearance, akin to a perfect piece of art, momentarily taking Su Xing’s breath away.

After a deep look at Luo Shuying, Su Xing said:

“Following me, you might die…”

Luo Shuying took a step forward and said earnestly:

“Death is just a matter of sooner or later… Given the current situation, it won’t be long before Demon-Subduing Pass is breached.”

Su Xing nodded slightly upon hearing this and gave Luo Shuying a hand signal, and the two of them headed deeper into the wilderness.

Along the way, Su Xing’s Divine Sense, which he extended outward, did detect quite a few Demonic Beasts.

But those Demonic Beasts were mostly not in their right minds, wandering the wilderness aimlessly, their eyes turning blood-red and filled with slaughter.

Luo Shuying, who had been following behind, suddenly asked:

“Su Xing, aren’t you affected by the Slaughter Moon?”

Caught off guard by the question, Su Xing wondered, “Slaughter Moon?”

Pointing at the moon high in the sky, Luo Shuying responded: “That moon there is called the Slaughter Moon.”

Seeing that Su Xing was still somewhat puzzled, Luo Shuying continued her explanation:

“The world we are in right now is known as the Slaughter Battlefield… Demon-Subduing Pass is just what you people of the Human Race from Blue Star call it, referring only to that area around the city…”

Upon hearing this, Su Xing became even more puzzled. The Slaughter Battlefield was a name he had heard for the first time.

Luo Shuying clearly knew much more than Su Xing did.

She went on to explain:

“The Slaughter Battlefield is said to have been the site of a fierce battle that a being of great power from long ago had with the Foreign Race, and the outcome of that battle remains unknown…”

“All that is known is that the originally vast world was shattered, with countless demiplanes and broken worlds scattered amidst the spatial turbulence. These fragmented worlds strewn across various places came to be known as Slaughter Battlefields!”

“Not only does Blue Star have a Slaughter Battlefield, but outside the world of my home, where the Spirit Race resides, there’s also a Slaughter Battlefield… Our battle with the Foreign Race takes place within that Slaughter Battlefield.”

“It is said that the Slaughter Battlefield hides great secrets and is also the channel through which the Foreign Race invades various worlds!”

Pausing for a moment, Luo Shuying’s gaze shifted towards Su Xing.

“So, you’re actually looking for a way to other worlds, right? You want to find that spatial turbulence from within the Slaughter Battlefield… Honestly, the chances are slim.”

After hearing Luo Shuying’s words, Su Xing fell into deep thought.

Combining the information obtained from Damned Zong during the last simulation, Su Xing had a rough understanding.

The Slaughter Battlefield was the channel for the Demon Race’s world invasion but also the only way out for the Human Race to escape the invasion.

After a moment of silence, Su Xing asked again:

“Then why is the moon in the sky called the Slaughter Moon?”

Luo Shuying explained:

“I’m not sure of the specifics, but there is a legend that once a malevolent god perished on the Slaughter Battlefield. After his death, he transformed into the Red Moon in the sky, influencing everything living on the Slaughter Battlefield…”

“It’s rumored that once he influences enough creatures, he could revive…”

Su Xing nodded and said, “So I’m not affected because my mental fortitude is relatively strong, right? But you don’t seem to be very affected either?”

Luo Shuying shook her head and explained:

“Even though I’m of the Spirit Race and naturally have stronger mental strength, the Slaughter Moon still affects me. It’s just that I’m now at the Legendary Level, so I can resist these negative emotions to a certain extent.”

“But if we go deeper, I fear I won’t be able to hold on much longer…”

Su Xing then asked, “So, what exactly is at the end of this battlefield?”

Shaking her head, Luo Shuying said, “I don’t know, but if you’re looking for a way to escape this battlefield, I guess it’s most likely to be found at the deepest part of the Red Moon?”

Su Xing memorized every word said by Luo Shuying verbatim.

Then the two continued walking for a while.

Along the way, Luo Shuying’s complexion grew increasingly pale, seemingly struggling desperately against the influence of the Red Moon.

Thinking for a moment, Su Xing took out two Bright Mirror Elixirs and handed them to Luo Shuying.

“Eat these; they should be of some help to you now.”

Without hesitation, Luo Shuying swallowed them, and after a while, her complexion indeed improved significantly.

Bright Mirror Elixirs stabilize emotions and clear the mind, having a certain effect on resisting the influence of the Red Moon.

Yet, Su Xing knew of a middle-grade elixir called Calming Heart Elixir, which was more effective, specifically used for calming emotions.

Su Xing and Luo Shuying walked on for some time.

At that moment, a prompt appeared in his mind that the immersive simulation time was ending.

Su Xing thought it over and decided that continuing forward would probably not yield much more, so he temporarily exited the immersive simulation.

Back in the real world, Su Xing looked at the simulation text before him and muttered:

“The Slaughter Moon, the Slaughter Battlefield… the only way to escape?”

Su Xing took a deep breath and fixed his gaze on the simulation panel.

[Luo Shuying has found you, and you are walking together on this desolate battlefield.]

[There is no direction on the Slaughter Battlefield, only the Red Moon above your heads.]

[As you continue forward, the Red Moon overhead grows larger, and its negative influence on living creatures becomes stronger.]

[Along the way, you encounter increasingly powerful members of the Foreign Race, some of whom even begin launching attacks on you proactively.]

[These members of the Foreign Race vary in form, but all have blood-red eyes as if they have lost their sanity to slaughter.]

[Fortunately, with Luo Shuying at your side to help, you’re not having too much difficulty dealing with them.]

[After several days, as you delve deeper, Luo Shuying has to focus more energy on suppressing her own emotions and is unable to fully engage in combat.]

[Therefore, you have to withstand the pressure and deal with the red-eyed members of the Foreign Race that wander the Slaughter Battlefield on your own.]
