Purgatory Artist-Chapter 287: Breaking the Game

In the grey-white world.

Bones were everywhere.

Giant statues rose from the ground one after another.

The tiger's knees were slightly bent, forming a fist stance.

"Ugh — — -"

He uttered a low roar.

An inexplicable presence exuded from his body, causing the void of space around him to tremble.

Under the tiger's immense power, the bones all over the ground began to fade and disappear.

"The Illusory Realm ..."

Liu Ping pondered.

"That's right" the tiger replied: "This world is fake, so this Devil King's Cards are a Card deck that focuses on confusion and summoning. They can infinitely magnify the fear in your heart, while also summoning some unknown entities to deal with us."

A resounding voice resounded from the void of space:

"Fake? No ... I will show you my collection, their power is enough to keep you here forever. At that time, I will show you what despair truly is."

As soon as he said that.

One of the giant statues suddenly moved.

The grey-white layer that covered the statue slowly faded away — —

It had come alive.

In that split second, the tiger unleashed a punch.

This punch landed on the void of space, but hundreds of other punches appeared out of nowhere, landing on the statues' chests.

The statues that were still in their petrified state all broke apart.

Only the first statue managed to block this punch, took a few steps back, then regained its balance.

The Devil King's voice resounded again:

" It's useless, I should be thanking you for helping me skip a very complicated step."

The broken statues began to come alive, turning into piles of flesh and blood that seeped deep into the bones on the ground.

A strange atmosphere arose spontaneously.

— — -as if some sort of ritual had already begun.

A line of burning text silently appeared:

[— — The sacrificial ritual has begun, all certain forbidden life forms are currently fusing with their flesh, a new terror is about to descend]

Liu Ping glanced at it and silently thought, so these statues are all similar to specimens.

By breaking them apart, the tiger had actually sped up the sacrificial ritual.

"Damn it, this Devil King isn't particularly strong, but he's collected a lot of strange monsters and sealed them in his Cards, is he trying to summon something?"

The tiger seemed to have noticed something and couldn't help but whisper.

He tapped the Card Tome next to him.

A total of 36 Cards instantly appeared from the Card Tome.

These cards were pieced together in mid-air and flipped over to form a perfect picture.

A sea of lava!

Above the boundless lava, a person sat cross-legged, drifting along with the waves.

When the thirty-six cards formed a pattern, the man suddenly opened his eyes and looked outside the pattern.

He smiled and said, "Interesting, a mere low-level Devil King can actually make you feel that he's difficult to deal with?"

Fierce Tiger replied: "The other party's card set seems to have been passed down from a long time ago, the power it possesses can increase to a level that I can't handle at any time."

When that person heard this, he stood up from the molten lava and said indifferently,

"Ancient Purgatory Deck? They're willing to use this thing to fight. How much trouble have you caused? "

"Heh heh, I am you, and you are me. If you had come with your real body, you might have caused even more trouble." The tiger laughed.

The man shook his head helplessly and stepped out of the pattern.

Meanwhile.

The ferocious tiger turned into a phantom and entered the man's body.

The man raised his hand, caught the mask, and put it on.

"Rabbit ..."

He glanced at Liu Ping and explained with a smile: "My real body is hidden inside the Card Deck to comprehend the true meaning of power. The one fighting with you outside is my soul shadow — — which can also be considered a clone of mine."

"How do we fight now?" Liu Ping asked.

While they were talking, the bones in the world slowly turned the color of blood, while the sealed flesh slowly fused together and covered the first statue.

The flesh of the first statue began to peel off.

Very quickly, all that was left of it was a skeleton that gave off a faint white light, but its aura was growing stronger.

Fierce Tiger looked at the skeleton with a look of admiration.

"Mixing the flesh of 12 forbidden devils to create a monster that can rival a powerful Hibernator — —"

"Worthy of me making a move."

He disappeared from where he stood and directly appeared in front of the monster, throwing a punch with all his might.

The monster's reaction was faster than expected.

As the punch was about to reach it, the light around the monster's body exploded, turning into a wall that blocked Fierce Tiger's punch.

"You think you can stop me?" Fierce Tiger coldly laughed.

In an instant.

An endless amount of magma went through the wall of light, manifested into a giant fist, and struck the monster's body.

The monster took a step back.

The magma sizzled as it hit its chest, causing a large amount of mist to rise.

"That can't be, why are you so weak?"

Ferocious Tiger grinned. His fists turned fiery red, and he was ready to strike again.

Just as he was about to clash with the monster again — —

Suddenly.

The Devil King's voice came from the void of space:

"I advise you to stop for a bit, take a look behind you, then decide how you want to fight."

Fierce Tiger was surprised, then looked behind him.

Only to see a 3-meter-tall humanoid monster standing next to the young man, holding a bone blade engraved with countless Hell Runes against his neck.

The Devil King's voice came again:

"Our true masterpiece — — it only released a single slave to stop you, while it itself has already subdued your companion."

The Devil King's voice became joyful and pleased:

"Then, once again, it's time for me to enjoy the show."

"Obey my orders, surrender to me — —"

"Then I won't kill your companion."

"Or — —"

"Watching your comrade get killed ...."

"No matter what you choose, I'll still think it's a wonderful thing, ahahaha!"

Fierce Tiger silently listened and looked at Liu Ping.

"Rabbit — — what do you think?"

He calmly asked.

Liu Ping nodded at him and said: "Don't worry about this monster, I think you should go find the Devil King — — - kill it, and this Card Deck world will disappear."

Fierce Tiger hesitated: "Then you — —"

Liu Ping slowly turned his head and looked at the guy giving off a terrifying presence.

To be honest — —

The feeling this guy gave him was almost comparable to that of the panda before he was tricked and sealed.

Very strong indeed.

Liu Ping reached his hand out and flicked the bone blade a few times.

The densely packed runes on the bone blade instantly lit up, unleashing hundreds and thousands of spells — — -

Two voices came at the same time!

"No — —" Fierce Tiger roared.

The Devil King laughed: "Ahahahaha, what a wonderful moment, I love to see you humans' expressions when your companions die."

In the void of space, lines of burning text quickly appeared:

[You're dead]

[You're dead]

[You're dead]

[You're dead]

[You're dead]

...

What a powerful weapon!

Liu Ping stood still without moving.

There wasn't a single wound on his body, and he even praised it. Looking at the monster, a sincere smile slowly appeared on his face.

An inexplicable fluctuation was emitted from his body.

He then asked:

"Did you eat this morning?"

The monster was stunned and couldn't help but answer: "I didn't ..."

Liu Ping nodded and continued: "As the main character, your appearance was a bit late, do you mind?"

Mysticism!

— — Acting Mystery, Cameo Armor!

[When you enter the performance state, an invisible force will emanate from your body, turning your surroundings into an open stage. Your target will unknowingly take the lead role and take the initiative to chat with you while you speak, as well as answer your various questions]

— — Acting Mystery's ability, even a prisoner would fall for it.

Could this monster in front of me be an exception?

Liu Ping looked at the monster.

The monster hesitated for a bit, then slowly lowered the bone blade and spoke with a clumsy and hoarse voice: "To ... restrain you ... a bit late ... doesn't matter"

Liu Ping clapped his hands: "To be honest, you hid very well, my companions and I didn't notice you at first, which means there's a problem here."

"What problem?" the monster asked.

"Where is the one who summoned you hiding?" Liu Ping asked.

The monster hesitated for a bit.

The Devil King's furious voice resounded: "Bastard! Kill him, kill this Human! "

The monster's body trembled.

Liu Ping slowly told him:

"Although you're the main character, he's also very good as a supporting character, you shouldn't have hidden him away."

The monster was still struggling.

Liu Ping silently chuckled. He lightly flew up and landed next to the monster's ear, whispering:

"An insignificant supporting character who no longer has any value will always have to face death, that's how our Purgatory and Eternal Night world should be, isn't it?"

The monster slowly regained its composure and spoke: "He's ... underground ... safe"

Lines of small burning words popped out:

[You've discovered the Devil King's hiding place in this technique]

[You've gained EXP from this exploration]

[Your EXP has increased by 5%]

Liu Ping was a bit surprised.

You can gain EXP like this?

He turned around and shouted at the tiger from afar: "Hey, didn't you want to kill a Devil King?"

The tiger regained its senses.

"Rabbit, you're really something..."

He laughed and looked down at the ground.

Following that, Tiger's body gave off a burning glow, flashed and rushed into the pile of bones on the ground.

The ground shook.

Liu Ping silently watched this and sighed: "I really don't understand these evil creatures, they clearly don't have the guts to come to Eternal Night, nor did they investigate what happened in detail, yet they think they can defeat us just by bringing a main character with them."

He looked at the monster next to him and asked: "Don't you think so?"

The monster thought for a bit, then nodded: "Yes."

Boom — — -

A deafening explosion resounded from the ground, all the bones began to give off a red glow.

A voice that appeared fierce but was cowardly at heart suddenly sounded.

"Remember this, the entire Purgatory will be coming for you!"

After saying the last few words, the voice had already left.

Following that was the tiger's unwilling voice: "Don't run, we've only fought once — —"

Liu Ping stood next to the monster.

They looked at the world of bones that was slowly collapsing.
