Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings-Chapter 235 - 229: Nowhere to Escape, Despair of Liuyu Heaven
Get bogged down in the Deceitful Demon labyrinth?
Even if Liuyu Heaven can afford it, Lin Yuan can’t.
He ventured into this Mysterious World to break through to Tier Four.
This is a world full of Evil Spirits, and he is human.
Staying here too long would only bring harm, with no benefit at all.
In the Deceitful Demon labyrinth, Sister-in-law sent a voice transmission to Lin Yuan: "We need to find a way to leave here; the longer we drag this out, the more disadvantageous it is for us."
Lin Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he said coldly, "Although Liuyu Heaven’s combat power is not strong, it’s like a pesky plaster, and it’s not easy to shake him off once caught."
Previously, Lin Yuan and his group had to constantly guard against Liuyu Heaven’s sneak attacks, so they didn’t have time to think about how to find him.
Now, with Sister-in-law’s Lotus Creation skills, Liuyu Heaven’s assault methods have been nullified.
Both sides have now fallen into a standoff, allowing Lin Yuan and the others to carefully ponder how to locate Liuyu Heaven’s true form.
To leave this Deceitful Demon labyrinth, there’s only one way: find Liuyu Heaven’s true form and eliminate him.
Other than that, there’s no other method.
At this moment, a glint flashed in Lin Yuan’s eyes as he suddenly recalled an ability he possessed.
One of the Four Departments, the Investigation Department.
The Path of Lu.
One of the Four Great Judges, known among the people as Lu Pan.
Lu Pan oversees the Investigation Department, and his duty is to locate those runaway Demon Fiends.
In mythology, the Path of Lu has eyes like lightning, upright and impartial!
Those who slipped through the net, once he locked onto them, none could escape.
Judging by the name of the Investigation Department overseeing the Path of Lu, it’s clear this area of expertise is a perfect fit.
Perhaps, he could use the Investigation Department’s ability to find Liuyu Heaven’s true form.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuan sent a voice transmission to Sister-in-law: "Help me as a protector, I’ll try to locate him."
"Okay!" replied Sister-in-law.
Immediately after, Lin Yuan began to wield the power of the Investigation Department.
A dark palace appeared above the Deceitful Demon labyrinth, and then a black token flew out from the palace.
The black token expanded with the wind, quickly growing to about the height of a person, inscribed with two small seal script characters.
Investigation.
The token hovered above like a stone tablet.
Then, the characters "Investigation" gradually faded, and the surface of the token became smooth as a mirror.
On the other side, when Liuyu Heaven saw the strange structure appear above the Deceitful Demon labyrinth, his expression immediately darkened.
Because this structure emanated an aura he found repulsive.
No, it wasn’t just repulsion—it was fear.
Yes, this aura made him feel fear.
The Underworld, the place most suppressive to Evil Spirits.
The Investigation Department is a building of the Underworld, naturally infused with its aura.
Therefore, it naturally filled Liuyu Heaven with fear and loathing.
"What kind of trick is this kid playing now?" Liuyu Heaven muttered with a gloomy face.
As for what else Lin Yuan could do, Liuyu Heaven would find out in the next moment.
At that moment, the mirror-like stone tablet reflected an image.
This image was of the scene inside the Deceitful Demon labyrinth.
Liuyu Heaven frowned and looked up at the smooth, mirror-like stone tablet, muttering softly, "Is this a mirror?"
A mirror?
At first glance, the labyrinth’s scene reflected on the stone tablet did resemble a mirror.
However, it wasn’t.
This was no mirror, but surveillance.
That’s right, calling it surveillance is more accurate.
Because the image on the stone tablet was moving.
The image moved at an incredible speed, sweeping over the scenes within the Deceitful Demon labyrinth one by one.
Soon, Liuyu Heaven saw himself on the stone tablet.
Like looking in a mirror, it was vivid and lifelike, exactly the same.
Liuyu Heaven admired his own magnificent appearance in the "mirror" for a moment.
Suddenly, he realized something was wrong.
This mirror couldn’t possibly be for him to admire himself!
"Damn it!"
"Are they looking for me?" Liuyu Heaven suddenly realized and took off, ready to find a different place to hide.
However, the stone tablet had already locked onto its target, and the image stopped moving, fixated on Liuyu Heaven.
No matter where Liuyu Heaven moved, his figure remained on the stone tablet’s image.
"What is this?"
"This is my Deceitful Demon labyrinth. How dare you spy on it!" Liuyu Heaven raged, summoning an octopus tentacle to strike the stone tablet.
The tentacle, like a steel whip, swept at the stone tablet with a whooshing force, seemingly capable of shattering it with one blow.
However, Liuyu Heaven’s goal was not achieved.
The stone tablet was obviously there, but it seemed to exist in another dimension.
Liuyu Heaven’s tentacle, like a steel whip, passed straight through the stone tablet, without damaging it in the slightest.
Liuyu Heaven: "????"
Terrified, Liuyu Heaven summoned several more tentacles, encircling from all directions.
This action was like trying to catch the moon’s reflection in the water.
Yet, the truth proved that he was indeed trying to catch the moon’s reflection in the water.
With this attempt, he caught nothing, while the stone tablet persisted, continuing to reflect him.
At this moment, Liuyu Heaven on the stone monument resembled a clown performing solo.
"Can’t damage it?"
"What kind of sinister technique is this?" Liuyu Heaven was utterly shocked inside.
After a moment of thought, he seemed to have thought of other methods.
Liuyu Heaven’s tentacles began to grow wildly, dancing incessantly like a frenzy.
Under these tentacles, there were dense suckers.
If anyone with trypophobia saw these suckers, they would undoubtedly be terrified.
"Pssh!"
"Pssh! Pssh!"
Almost simultaneously, these suckers began to emit black ink globules.
The ink globules, once emitted, scattered immediately, spreading like black fog, covering the area around Liuyu Heaven.
At the same time, they spread throughout the entire Deceitful Demon Maze.
Liuyu Heaven intended to use these black ink globules to conceal his shape, thereby avoiding the monument’s monitoring.
However, reality is abundant, while ideals are meager.
Liuyu Heaven’s idea was good, but he clearly underestimated the monument’s function, and even more so the Investigation Department’s methods.
The Investigation Department, as one of the Underworld’s departments for finding vengeful souls and evil demons, how could their search methods be hindered by such veiling techniques?
The black fog indeed spread considerably around, concealing Liuyu Heaven’s shape.
At this moment, in the sky above, large masses of black fog appeared within the stone monument, rendering the monument entirely dark; nothing could be seen.
A moment later, the monument changed again.
Within the monument, Liuyu Heaven’s shape turned into a white outline.
Surrounded by darkness, his white silhouette became even more conspicuous.
"What is this?" Looking at his still prominent figure on the monument, Liuyu Heaven couldn’t help but shout in anger: "This is my Deceitful Demon, my Deceitful Demon?"
"What on earth is daring to spy on me like this?"
But now, Liuyu Heaven could only rage impotently.
Currently, he was at his wit’s end, lacking other methods to avoid the monument’s surveillance.
On the other side, as the Investigation Department was exerting its influence, and Liuyu Heaven’s image appeared on the monument.
Lin Yuan had already taken his sister-in-law, heading towards his location.
At this moment, Lin Yuan saw more than just the image appearing on the monument.
As the master of the Investigation Department, the images appearing inside the monument simultaneously appeared in Lin Yuan’s mind.
In Lin Yuan’s mind, it was as though a real-time map navigation had appeared.
Wherever Liuyu Heaven ran, Lin Yuan would pursue.
At this moment, only four words could describe Liuyu Heaven.
That is....
No place to hide.
Where does he want to run?
No, he has nowhere to escape. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
With one hand, Lin Yuan pulled his sister-in-law, and with the other hand wielded Zhong Kui’s Demon-Slaying Sword.
Wherever the sword energy passed, the jade walls blocking the front were shattered into pieces.
At this moment, Lin Yuan’s advancing direction was directly towards Liuyu Heaven.
And Liuyu Heaven, upon realizing his methods couldn’t obscure the monument, began his frantic escape.
The stone monument in the sky left him with no place to hide.
Once Lin Yuan and his sister-in-law found him, he would have no place to flee.
By that time, the only thing waiting for him would be a dead end.
The only chance for survival now was to quickly escape before Lin Yuan found him.
He must run, abandoning this Deceitful Demon Maze.
Liuyu Heaven had a very powerful friend, and earlier he had used methods to call for help.
But now it seemed he could no longer wait for his friend’s aid to arrive.
Helpless, he could only flee in the direction of his friend.
However, this was merely his thought.
Because, having more legs does not mean running faster.
Even if he had countless tentacles, he was still not as fast as Lin Yuan’s two legs.
Lin Yuan’s speed was much faster than his.
Just as Liuyu Heaven was about to escape the Deceitful Demon Maze, the pair of figures blocked his way.
Lin Yuan wielded Zhong Kui’s Demon-Slaying Sword with one hand and held his sister-in-law’s hand with the other; truly a pair of divine lovers!
Though divine lovers, they exuded a murderous aura.
With a flick of Lin Yuan’s wrist, the sword blade rotated, producing a "shushing" sound.
In the next moment, the crimson sword swung out, thousands of sword cries ringing, sword energy extending three hundred meters.
"Zheng!"
At this instant, the surrounding thousands of sword energies seemed to receive guidance, all attacking Liuyu Heaven.
Each sword energy emanated extremely terrifying energy waves.
As the sword energy approached, Liuyu Heaven was greatly astonished but could only withstand the thousands of sword energies.
He swung his tentacles like steel whips, trying to smash the surrounding crimson sword energy with his tentacles.
"Boom!"
"Boom! Boom!"
The steel whip-like tentacles collided with the sword energy, emitting terrifying energy waves.
Luckily, Silent Sea had the ability to shield energy perception; otherwise, such massive energy waves would surely attract more evil spirits.
