Chapter 127: Chapter 127: Double Standard, How Am I Supposed to Fight This?

Now that she knew what to do, Xu Qingsui didn’t care if anyone else could hear. She immediately shouted out the Giant Octopus’s weak point.

Lu Jingyu caught the information Xu Qingsui provided and immediately charged toward the Giant Octopus’s belly, wielding Tan Lang.

But unlike the Tentacle Monsters they had faced before, a sweeping tentacle would block his path every few steps.

He would sweep Tan Lang out to sever one tentacle, only for another to immediately lash out in its place.

The tentacles, as thick as a grown man, seemed endless; as soon as one was cut down, another would appear.

Despite charging relentlessly for some time, Lu Jingyu couldn’t get anywhere near the Giant Octopus’s abdomen.

In the darkness, Xu Qingsui had no idea how the others were faring. Since she couldn’t help much physically, she decided to proceed with a two-pronged attack.

However, her previous burst of Spiritual Power had been devoured, so she wasn’t sure if she could successfully enter the Giant Octopus’s Sea of Consciousness.

Besides, how could she even touch the Giant Octopus now to get the chance to invade its Sea of Consciousness?

She fumbled about aimlessly in the darkness. Strangely, no tentacles attacked her.

Stumbling forward, Xu Qingsui finally touched something soft and slimy. Unsure if it was the Giant Octopus, her only option was to try releasing her spiritual power.

As her spiritual power flowed into it, Xu Qingsui’s form appeared in a dim and gloomy world.

If it weren’t for the sensation of being pulled from her body just a moment ago, she would have thought she was still in the black ink the Giant Octopus had spat out.

Confirming that she had entered its Sea of Consciousness, Xu Qingsui’s confidence grew.

But it was so dark she couldn’t see her hand in front of her face, giving her the feeling that danger could strike at any moment.

An idea struck her. Xu Qingsui snapped her fingers, and a flame ignited at her fingertip, dispelling the surrounding darkness.

With the sense of danger slightly abated, Xu Qingsui began to inspect her surroundings.

The space she was in seemed to have no end. The tiny flame only illuminated a small patch of ground at her feet.

No matter how she moved, the area illuminated by the flame was empty, while beyond its reach lay the same unknown darkness.

Even with this sliver of light, as time went on, Xu Qingsui began to feel an invisible pressure weighing down on her, making it hard to breathe.

’This can’t go on,’ she thought. Xu Qingsui worried that she would be driven mad before she ever found a way out.

After a moment of thought, Xu Qingsui acted again. A Fire Dragon erupted from her palm.

The Fire Dragon roared, just like the Black Dragon Xu Qingsui had seen when she first entered Lu Jingyu’s Spiritual World.

Everything in the Fire Dragon’s path was completely exposed to Xu Qingsui’s view.

Only then did Xu Qingsui see that she was in an empty cave, and an exit lay at the very end of the Fire Dragon’s path.

Having finally found a direction, the tension in Xu Qingsui’s heart eased considerably.

Thinking of the Fire Dragon that had just shot from her palm, Xu Qingsui couldn’t help but smile.

As she grew more proficient at controlling the various elements within her, she had been constantly thinking about how to maximize their power.

She eventually recalled the Black Dragon she had seen in Lu Jingyu’s Spiritual World the first time they met, when she had helped him channel his energy.

She had modeled this Fire Dragon after the image of that Black Dragon.

’This is my first time using it, and the results aren’t bad,’ she mused. ’I wonder how effective it will be against a Mutant.’

She would have a chance to satisfy her curiosity later.

Xu Qingsui didn’t dwell on it and hurried in the direction the Fire Dragon had flown.

When she reached the mouth of the cave, Xu Qingsui noticed that it looked pitch-black inside as well.

’It can’t be like this inside too, can it?’

After a moment’s hesitation, Xu Qingsui stepped into the opening.

The moment she stepped through, a blinding light flared before her eyes.

After the bright flash, Xu Qingsui found herself stepping into a space filled with soft light.

The only difference between this space and the last was that one was dark and this one was bright. Otherwise, it was just as empty.

This time, she didn’t need the Fire Dragon’s help; she could already see the next cave entrance on the opposite side.

Without overthinking it, she walked toward it.

Looking into the entrance this time, she saw that it was brightly lit, but that was all she could make out.

Taking a breath, she entered the opening again. This time there was no blinding light, no sudden change in brightness. What greeted her was a throne carved from a single massive stone.

However, the master of the throne was absent, leaving only an empty seat.

The moment she saw the throne, Xu Qingsui thought of the Giant Octopus.

’This must be where its spirit body resides,’ she thought. ’But I wonder where it’s run off to now.’

Just as she was thinking of lying in wait, a thick tentacle descended silently from above her.

Just as the tentacle was about to touch her, Xu Qingsui flung a fireball at it.

She immediately retreated, putting distance between herself and the appendage.

It might have seemed like her attention was fixed on the throne, but her senses had been monitoring her surroundings the entire time.

She had detected the tentacle the moment it began to descend.

She had delayed her attack to ensure it would land a direct hit.

As expected, the fireball scored a direct hit. But what happened next was completely outside her expectations.

The fireball seemed to hit the tentacle, but it was like striking the surface of water; it merely created ripples without harming the tentacle in the slightest.

Without a moment’s pause, the tentacle shot toward Xu Qingsui.

Refusing to believe it, Xu Qingsui dodged while throwing another fireball.

But every time a fireball touched the tentacle, it was like a stone tossed into water, creating only ripples without inflicting any actual damage.

After several attempts, Xu Qingsui’s brow furrowed deeply.

’What is going on? Is its spirit body invincible within its own Sea of Consciousness? Is it impossible to hurt it?’

Her mind raced with questions as she continuously dodged the tentacle’s attacks.

But even with her intense focus, there were moments when her body couldn’t keep up with her mind.

In a single moment of inattention, she stumbled, and the tentacle caught up to her.

Unlike her own attacks, which couldn’t cause it any real harm, the tentacle seized her with ease.

Captured in the tentacle’s grasp, Xu Qingsui’s expression turned grim.

’So when I attack, it’s all just smoke and mirrors, but when it attacks, it’s for real.’

’If such blatant double standards are at play, what else is impossible?’

Xu Qingsui cursed internally as the tentacle coiled around her body and carried her away.

As her perspective shifted to a strange angle, Xu Qingsui saw another scene.

Seeing the scene before her, Xu Qingsui’s mind reeled in shock.

But it was only for a moment. A glint of cunning flashed in her eyes, and in the next second, she violently raised her hand, sending a Fire Dragon surging upward.
