Chapter 563: Hopeless Situation!
Tang Li Xue felt extremely angry and disappointed, but since there was nothing she could do about it right now.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down, then she started rushing forward again at full speed in the corridor toward the fox head statue, but this time, she was completely alone.
Just like before, she would stop her breathing and movement every time the fox head statue turned around and stared at her, but she would run forward again at full speed when the fox head statue stopped looking at her.
After doing it repeatedly for ten minutes or so, she immediately realized that the distance between her and the fox head statue was not getting closer at all.
Tang Li Xue was very frustrated, and she started to believe that this treasure game was really bugged.
'Sigh... Is this really hopeless? Am I fated to only go this far?' Tang Li Xue doubtfully asked herself.
'Maybe it would be better if I just try to run farther until I get out from the radius of crimson skies domain rather than blindly participating in this treasure game before...' Tang Li Xue regretted it very much right now.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in unwillingness as extreme anger burned more fiercely in her heart, then she shouted out loud: "Damn stupid bugged treasure game~! Just from the strange rules of this treasure game, I can already see that this would be a crappy game~!"
But right at this moment, a light of inspiration suddenly flashed in Tang Li Xue's mind.
Tang Li Xue's silver furry body shuddered as if she was struck by lightning, then she began to murmur by herself: "Eh, what did I say just now? The strange rules of this treasure game? Strange rules... No way, right? Don't tell me that..."
Tang Li Xue's topaz blue eyes were shining brightly like a pair of blue stars in excitement.
Yes, there were three lines of rules in this treasure game...
[All of you must stop moving and does nothing when the fox head statue stared in your direction.]
[All of you can move and do anything when the fox head statue turned around, but you must never stare at the tails behind the fox head statue!]
[The first fox to touch the fox head statue will be the winner and get the previous treasure.]
The first and third rules were not strange at all since everyone who ever played this game will have these kinds of rules, but the second half of the second rule was a bit different from what everyone knows!
[You must never stare at the tails behind the fox head statue!]
This part was extremely strange!
It was as if the second rule was deliberately inserted to give them some kind of clue about something!
Yes, this might even be the clue to win this treasure game!
Tang Li Xue suddenly turned around until her three tails were facing the fox head statue, then she ran at full speed again!
If the other foxes were still alive, and they saw what Tang Li Xue had done right now, they might think that Tang Li Xue had already become crazy because she was currently running away in the opposite direction from the fox head statue's location instead!
After only sprinting for ten or twenty seconds, the surrounding space started to distort.
Tang Li Xue slowed down her speed as she walked right in front of the fox head statue that suddenly appeared in front of her.
"So, here you are... Hah... Ahahahahaha~!" Tang Li Xue laughed crazily.
Tang Li Xue found it really ridiculous since she and the other foxes were running forward to reach the fox head statue using so much of their effort and energy, but their real destination was actually only a few miles away behind them!
The fox head statue turned around again to stare at Tang Li Xue, but this time, Tang Li Xue did not bother to stop her movement or breath.
"I changed my mind~! This is really a good game... But the one who created this game is undoubtedly a deceptive bast*rd~!" Tang Li Xue muttered with a smile.
When the eyes of the fox head statue shone with a crimson light...
Tang Li Xue already raised her paw and touched the fox head statue.
The fox head statue's eyes were shooting destructive rays, but Tang Li Xue's silver furry figure had already disappeared from there.
.....
Just like what Tang Li Xue had said, that kind of deceptive treasure game might be good to test their IQ while fighting in the middle of the dead or life battlefield.
But who would have enough time to think clearly about solving the puzzle like this when they competed and fought fiercely against other foxes?!
Therefore, if Tang Li Xue could choose, she really did not want to participate in this kind of mind-breaker puzzle-type treasure game like this one ever again.
When Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes, she had already teleported back to the treasure island.
She was currently beside the river in the mountain valley, and there was a treasure box right in front of her.
Although the surrounding scenery was beautiful, but Tang Li Xue did not have any mood to appreciate it because the skies above her were still painted in crimson color!
Both her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline and [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline was working hard to resist the powerful mind-controlling effect from the crimson skies domain again.
Tang Li Xue could sense that her stamina and energy were drained rapidly like before.
Tang Li Xue sighed helplessly as she grabbed her treasure box and started to run as fast as she could to get out from the crimson skies domain's radius again.
She did not bother to activate her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to hide in order to save her stamina and energy since the other foxes that got mind-controlled did not even notice her before.
However, Tang Li Xue's decision proved to be a big mistake this time because the mind-controlled foxes had actually noticed her this time!
[Sludge Swamp]!
The grassy ground below Tang Li Xue's feet suddenly turned into a dark swamp, and it sucked Tang Li Xue into it!
dαsvel.cοm
"Damn it~!" Tang Li Xue cursed as she urged Yaya to enter [Divine Possession] mode with her.
After entering [Divine Possession] mode, Tang Li Xue swiftly flapped the transparent fairy wings on her back and flew away from the dark swamp.
The dark swamp was very poisonous, but it would not work for Tang Li Xue since both of her powerful bloodlines and her [Sun And Moon Aegis] could easily nullify any kind of poison.
But when Tang Li Xue flew higher into the sky, the rain of flame arrows suddenly came from above her!
[Hurricane Barrier]!
A huge hurricane wall suddenly appeared around Tang Li Xue and easily blocked all of the flame arrows.
[Paralyzing Light]!
Tang Li Xue instantly felt her entire body become stiff, and she could no longer move.
She fell rapidly from the sky, but before her body could smash into the ground, her [Sun And Moon Aegis] already helped her to clear the paralysis effect from her body.
Tang Li Xue immediately flapped her transparent fairy wings to stop her fall while catching her falling treasure box, but the other fox already launched another attack toward her!
[Burning Chains]!
Several flame chains were binding Tang Li Xue's body from all directions!
[Compressed Wind Blades]!
Using Yaya's perfect wind control, Tang Li Xue instantly created many [Compressed Wind Blades] to cut all of the flame chains that tied her body!
"Damn it~! There is something wrong with them! Did they really get mind-controlled by the crimson skies domain? But how could their teamwork become so good under the mind-controlling effect?!" Tang Li Xue exclaimed in anger and annoyance.
But when Tang Li Xue saw the crimson light in these foxes' eyes, she became sure that these foxes were really got mind-controlled by the crimson skies domain.
However, Tang Li Xue found it extremely unbelievable since these mind-controlled foxes were not showing any sign of sluggishness or discoordination at all.
Rather than getting mind-controlled, maybe brainwashed was more correct?
Tang Li Xue did not really want to waste her energy and time fighting against these brainwashed foxes, so she decided to quickly get away from them using her speed!
[Tempest Prison]!
All of the surrounding brainwashed foxes were trapped by the prison made from the small typhoon!
Tang Li Xue took this chance to activate her speed-increasing buff and swiftly flew farther from here!
[Wind Guardian Blessing]! (Increase overall speed by 50%, and grant the user auto-dodge effect)
This time, Tang Li Xue did not have any other choice than to activate both her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to hide herself since she was quite sure that the user of this crimson skies domain might targeting her right now.
Because of that, her stamina and energy were drained even more rapidly than before!
The energy she sucked from the several foxes with a lot of hard work in the previous treasure game was already consumed in only a few minutes.
"This will not work... My stamina and energy are consumed too rapidly. At this rate, I will be completely exhausted in less than ten minutes! I will never be able to get out of this crimson skies domain in only ten minutes! Sigh... It seems I must find another pillar of golden light as soon as possible and participate in another treasure game again..." Tang Li Xue groaned in helplessness.
Tang Li Xue hastily scanned her surrounding from the sky and found out that the nearest pillar of golden light was several hundred miles away from her.
That was clearly too far away from her!
Just when Tang Li Xue fell into despair and hopelessness...
She suddenly saw the sky with a beautiful aurora above the nearby forest area. The primary upload of this chapter happened on B1nN0vel.
That was surely a very strange phenomenon...
How could there be a beautiful aurora sky in the middle of this crimson skies domain?
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not have any other choice than to go there right now so she could avoid the mind-controlling effect from this crimson skies domain and took a rest to recover her energy.
Oh, right... She also needed some time to check the content of the treasure box and to eat that precious treasure later.
