Chapter 179 - 111: An Impromptu Journey to the Underworld

Mao Mao can’t go in together?

Then won’t the Fire of Huodou be unusable?

It’s going to be a bit troublesome making egg-filled pancakes...

Lu Wenwu suddenly felt things were becoming problematic, swiftly took out quite a number of raw materials from Spirit Heaven Mountain, and gave Mao Mao permission to enter and exit freely.

All this time, he had grown accustomed to cooking with the Fire of Huodou.

Now suddenly lacking his usual heat source, Lu Wenwu felt very anxious.

Maybe this is the principle of how it’s easy to go from frugality to luxury but difficult from luxury to frugality.

Cooking with the Fire of Huodou is a privilege only the Fire God could have!

[Starting teleportation]

[Beep!]

[Detected abnormal player body data, re-scanning in process, please wait]

Looking at the spinning symbol on the system panel in front of him, Lu Wenwu was a bit dumbfounded.

What’s going on?

I am just a teeny-tiny bit stronger than a normal B-level player, how is the body data abnorm...

Wait a minute!?

Body!

Lu Wenwu suddenly realized the problem.

This time’s dungeon location is the Underworld.

One must enter the Underworld in a soul state!

But I’ve cultivated the special cultivation technique "Influence Body Refining Skill"!

My soul and body are one, can’t be separated like normal players or directly have an out-of-body experience.

So am I stuck in a bug now, freezing the system?

Lu Wenwu suddenly felt a bit uneasy.

Don’t let my spot be voided!

If I miss such a golden opportunity, it would be really tear-inducing.

[Detection completed]

[Confirmed player identity information—ID: Invincible Tyrannosaurus War God]

[Confirmed player body data normal]

[Player identity authenticated]

[Fixing known issues, special teleportation starting]

This wait lasted a full half hour, making Lu Wenwu a bit impatient.

Whew...

At last, it’s fine.

Only now did Lu Wenwu finally let out a sigh of relief.

This time, the Light of Teleportation was no longer pure white as usual, but an ink-like black.

Once Lu Wenwu regained his senses, he opened his eyes and found himself in a somewhat dimly lit world.

The sky was gray, without the familiar sun.

Looking into the distance, everything seemed dark and cold-colored, quite discomforting.

Before Lu Wenwu stood a young man in a white police uniform.

His face was pale, stature was short, an extremely long tongue hung from his mouth, holding a mourning stick, with a row of numbers resembling a badge on his left chest.

The police hat he wore had a prominent emblem resembling the Ghost Gate, and above it floated four high-lit vertical characters—A Stroke of Fortune.

Looks just like a game ID.

On the right stood a hefty man in the same style but black police uniform, tall in stature, holding a soul hook.

His police hat floated the words—World Peace.

"Black and White Impermanence?" Lu Wenwu froze for a moment, "Why are you dressed like this? It’s not like in the books!"

Not only was he stunned.

Even Black and White Impermanence themselves were stunned.

White Impermanence looked puzzled: "Did they make a mistake up above? Why is this a living person?"

Black Impermanence took out a tablet for a glance, even more puzzled than White Impermanence, pointing at the text on the tablet: "I have no idea! Look here, it says there was an exception using the old closed route, arriving late, missed the bus, so we’re here to pick you up."

Lu Wenwu scratched his head: "Hey, you two from the northeast plains? Black and White Impermanence have been replaced?"

"Bro, how do you know?" Black Impermanence’s eyes widened, "I thought I didn’t have an accent!"

White Impermanence, looking annoyed, gave Black Impermanence a jab with the mourning stick, and then explained: "Master Qi and Master Ba are big bosses, ordinary ghosts can’t see them. Impermanence, Ox Head and Ma Mian are just positions in the Underworld; otherwise, how could just those four handle all affairs?"

"Isn’t that so? I’ve been in the job for decades and never seen those four, heard the Underworld big shots are all on business trips, don’t know when they’ll return."

Black Impermanence looked regretful, circled behind Lu Wenwu, patted his back, raising the soul hook in hand and using its sharp end to jab him.

"Alright, this batch should know the drill, if nothing’s up, come on bro, let’s head to the Ghost Gate for procedures, bear it for a while."

"Snap."

The hook of the soul hook easily pierced through Lu Wenwu’s clothes.

But upon touching his skin, it made a sound that wasn’t quite right.

The soul hook...

Didn’t lock in!

The usually unimpeded soul hook...

Failed!

Lu Wenwu and the White Impermanence looked eye to eye, visible awkwardness between them.

He wasn’t sure what expression the Black Impermanence behind him making attempts to correctly employ the soul hook had.

But the White Impermanence in front clearly couldn’t hold it together.

Only then did Lu Wenwu oddly realize.

The equipment absorbed and refined by the Divine Body... could still be used!

The Azure Sky Wings behind, even though the attributes were gone, the Demon Dragon Wings as a skill were still active.

Banned, but not entirely.

Woohoo, another bug!

Black Impermanence was still tinkering behind Lu Wenwu, sweating profusely.

Behind Lu Wenwu, the area of his shoulder blades was sparking wildly.
