Chapter 193 Sisyphus
Chapter 193 Sisyphus
"Is this... an immortal spirit? This thing was lying in ambush here a long time ago. Damn it, I knew it was intelligent, but I didn't expect it to be this smart!"
The Necromancer King's Evil Eye began to gather energy in the air once more, preparing to take down Di Xing and Li Fei Hua Yue in one fell swoop.
"Wait a minute!" At this moment, Di Xing's deck lit up, and tears welled up from within.
"You're looking for me, right? I'll go with you, but you have to let these two people go!"
The Death King roared, its evil eye seemingly implying that the Death King was not qualified to negotiate with it.
Lei Xi calmly said, "I do. If you don't release these two people, I will self-destruct right here. If you can't sacrifice myself, you won't be able to maintain your immortal world for the next 100 years."
Di Xing then noticed that the Death King's appearance this time did not come with an immortal world.
The Death King, Evil Eye, pondered for a moment and nodded.
Lei Xi turned to Di Xing and said, "I'm sorry, Di Xing, there are many things I haven't told you because I really don't want to leave you. I know I shouldn't stay by your side, as it puts you in danger, but I just can't bear to. Please forgive my stubbornness, and goodbye forever."
Lei Xi's face was already wet with tears. She leaned down and kissed Di Xing's lips deeply one last time, then resolutely turned and entered the space of the Death King's Evil Eye.
"What are you talking about?! You come back here to Lei Xi right now. You think you can just tease me and run away? There's no way you can have it that way!"
Di Xing unleashed his full power, managing to break almost all of the chains.
The Death King hurriedly raised his staff, upon which the right eye crystal of the Red-Eyes Undead Dragon was attached, immediately emitted purple light again, attempting to reinforce the chains.
However, at that moment, the ancient mechanical giant's last remaining left fist suddenly shot out, striking the Death King directly and shattering its breastplate instantly.
The Death King let out a painful roar, and Di Xing and Li Fei Hua Yue seized the opportunity to break free from their restraints.
Just as Di Xing was preparing to command the Bone King to counterattack, another change occurred: countless tentacles reappeared, binding both the Bone King and Di Xing.
"Damn it, it's the ghost of the dungeon! Bastard, haven't you given up yet?"
Di Xing roared, but his consciousness uncontrollably sank into darkness.
In the darkness, Di Xing seemed to hear the long-lost voice of another version of himself: "It's...not enough. We...have no power left."
Another Di Xing sat weakly in the darkness.
"No, we absolutely cannot lose here! We absolutely cannot hand Lei Xi over to that guy! And I must punch that guy who casually plays with the dead! Oh, and that Hui Shen from the dungeon too!" Di Xing roared, walking towards his other self.
At this moment, countless tentacles stretched out, attempting to engulf Di Xing.
"I wish I could, but we don't have the power."
"Then let's join forces!" Di Xing struggled to break free of the tentacles. "The power of the Bone King is the sum of everyone's strength!"
Di Xing finally grasped the hand of his other self in the darkness. At that moment, the voice of the true White Bone King, unlike the two of them, rang out.
"Very well, you have grasped the true meaning of our power. I, Sisyphus, king of mortals, cursed by the gods, feared by death. We are the sum of all struggles, even if we are always on the verge of success only to fail because of the gods' curse, but each failure becomes the strength of the next."
The Bone King emerged from the darkness, and countless pieces of flesh began to revive on its body. The face of a dignified, bearded middle-aged man replaced the original skeleton, and the crown on his head signified his royal status.
Princess White Bone followed beside it, also regaining her human appearance: flowing golden hair and azure eyes. She looked at Di Xing and playfully winked at him. It must be said, the little princess's human form was quite adorable.
"You've been chasing me for a long time. I was the one who captured you, but I wasn't the one who turned you into this. Besides, we're Sisyphus, infinitely close to success. Why not save your energy and arrest us when we fail?"
The dungeon echoed with a low, guttural growl.
Sisyphus, the Bone King, smiled and said, "Go, Di Xing, and bring victory to mortals!"
Di Xing's consciousness returned to reality, only to find that a single moment had passed. Even better news was that the spirits in the underground dungeon had not only bound the Bone King, but had also extended tentacles to bind the Death King.
Di Xing immediately shouted, "White Bone King!"
The Bone King understood immediately. He tilted his remaining head back as far as he could, then slammed it forward, smashing the head of the dungeon's guardian spirit and forcefully throwing Di Xing, who was standing on it, forward.
Di Xing clenched his right fist desperately; at that moment, his right fist had turned to bone. Then, Di Xing's bone-iron fist slammed into the forehead of the Death King, Evil Eye.
The Death King let out a heart-wrenching scream, its skeletal face breaking apart. In agony, it threw away Lei Xi. Di Xing quickly jumped away, stepping on the Death King's face, and caught Lei Xi tightly in mid-air.
The Death King, with his evil eye, turned to escape into the dimensional rift he had opened. At that moment, Li Fei Hua Yue used her last strength to swing her sword.
The Death King hurriedly raised his staff to block, but the sword's edge shattered the gem on his staff, and the explosion sent Li Fei Hua Yue flying.
The Death King, disregarding the destroyed magical artifact, hastily vanished into the dimensional rift behind him.
At this moment, the ancient mechanical giant's body finally gave way and began to collapse, while the Bone King dissipated into specks of light.
The giant's head fell, its green eyes fixed on the falling Di Xing.
"You, Sisyphus, king of mortals, I believe in you, and the rebellion is in your hands!"
Di Xing laboriously made an OK sign to it in the air.
"The prerequisite is that I can survive."
As the ancient mechanical giant collapsed, all the ancient mechanical monsters ceased their activity. The women turned their heads and saw Di Xing falling from the collapsing Bone King.
"Di Xing!"
The women all gasped in surprise and rushed towards the location.
The Bone King had already dissipated into specks of light, but the ancient mechanical giant had not vanished; instead, it had turned into countless enormous fragments. Di Xing had fallen into a coma and was about to be buried alive among these fragments.
A sigh echoed from the void, and the stunningly beautiful girl, Mi Li, dressed in golden robes, appeared.
With a wave of her hand, several vortexes appeared around Di Xing, teleporting away countless parts that were about to hit him. Then, a triangular steel plate flew out from one of them, providing a barrier for Di Xing. After doing this, Mi Li quickly turned and disappeared into the void.
What she didn't notice was that a pair of cute, yellow, jerky-like ears suddenly appeared in an inconspicuous area on the huge pillar.
The next moment, the owner of the ear actually walked directly out of Mi Li's vortex.
