Legend of the Great Sage

kilograms anymore.

And that was only the beginning.
The sensation of numbness rapidly spread along his arm, swallowing the entire black ape arm and still showing no signs of stopping.

This was nothing like potent poison or acid, but some kind of law at work.
It was almost like a curse.

Without any hesitation, Li Qingshan drew his sword and cut off his arm.
He even cut off a major part of his shoulder.

The numbness immediately became tremendous pain, even more than the tortures of hell.
It even made him gasp uncontrollably before exhaling deeply.

“I sure am quite unlucky right now!”

If he did not have the Sword of Xuanyuan, probably even cutting off his arm would not have been helpful.
The wound did not close up so quickly either, forcing him to contract his blood vessels to stop the bleeding.

For the time being, he could forget about regrowing the arm.
It was not some fatal wound, but it would definitely affect his prowess in battle.

Li Qingshan observed his surroundings.
It was a rather spacious place, enough to fit several soccer pitches, entirely composed of flesh that constantly wriggled and changed in shape.
It gradually opened up and seemed round, but it was not.

The depths of the flesh shone with a pink lustre.
If he shut his eyes and ignored the strange flesh, then the climate and temperature was actually quite delightful.

However, this place was empty.
There was nothing at all.
There were neither demonfolk nor demonic beasts.
There was not even a single plant.

“Is this the Blood maze?”

“This is only one of the chambers.
The entire Blood maze is composed of countless chambers like this.
This place has just been washed, which is why there’s nothing here,” Qian Rongzhi raised her head and flickered her forked tongue, looking around.

Li Qingshan discovered several new doorways as well.
They were all firmly shut, but they were not as difficult to pass through as the Gate of Xuanpin.

“How do I enter Qiongqi’s dominion?”

“I don’t know.”

“What? Say that again!”

“I don’t know.”

Li Qingshan squinted his eyes, giving off dangerous killing intent.

Qian Rongzhi explained, “The locations of the chambers constantly change with the wriggling.
These paths aren’t all straight lines either.
At the same time, all of the chambers have a fixed longevity.
Old chambers will gradually be compressed until they vanish, while new chambers will be created.
There has never been any markers that never change, nor is there an absolutely correct path.
This is why it’s called a maze.”

“You want to trap me in here?”

“Of course not.
Who would lock themselves up in the same cage as a tiger? Originally, you were chosen by the Demon domain, deeply blessed by the will of the heavens, so even if you wandered around aimlessly in the maze, you’ll definitely get to where you want to be.
But now… it’s difficult to say.”

“You never said that in the beginning.”

“Who would have thought you would shatter the Black Sun Demon Heart on a whim? And if you couldn’t pass through the customs, this is the only path.
There’s nothing else I can do either.
You’re welcome to return to Taotie’s dominion too.
Perhaps once that senior of yours calms down, he’ll be willing to help you pass through.”

“After I just smashed a mountain into his face?”

This novel is available on Hosted Novel.

“Heh, let’s hope you have another mountain then.”

Li Qingshan was very tempted to choke her to death, but he also understood that she was right.
Even if she mentioned this all beforehand, he would have still set foot in this Blood maze.
He did not regret destroying the Black Sun Demon Heart either, as this was the path he had chosen.

After shattering the Black Sun Demon Heart, his mind became clear again.
The various transformations of the demonic and divine all progressed.
In particular, the newly-awakened Divine Dragon Transformation showed signs of breaking though.
That was his true foundations.

“Hmph, when it comes to mazes, I’ve never lost to anyone!” Li Qingshan said proudly.

His Spirit Turtle Transformation had reached completion.
Spirit turtles were most skilled in calculating patterns and noticing secrets.
How could a measly maze stump him?

With a swish, he produced several mirror clones that set off on different paths.
Now, he could maintain many mirror clones at the same time, and he had the thousands of demonic thought clones from the Origin Soul of great liberty.

Even if it was through brute force, he would find a path!
