To Harm the Righteous Path, I Had No Choice But to Make Games

chapter 171 - This is the charm of Russian roulette!


“The rules are that complicated?”Brother Xu frowned.He had the least experience with Illusion Realm games, and he particularly disliked these kinds of games that seemed to require a lot of brainpower.“Don’t worry, it’s like three kingdoms kill. It looks difficult, but you’ll get it after playing one round… Oh, you haven’t played three kingdoms kill either.”Lu Ze spread his hands helplessly, looking at Brother Xu with a strange gaze.A Cultivator like him was bound to be an anomaly in the future…“Haha, I’ve completely figured it out… I’m definitely getting this Earth Vein Marrow!”Wang Tianjing straightened his chest, full of confidence.“Hehe, I seem to understand too… It looks very interesting!”Chen Yiyun grinned, fiddled with the Russian roulette crossbow in her hand a few times, and then looked at Lu Ze with some concern:“Will it hurt?”“Yes, very much so.”Lu Ze nodded without hesitation.Actually, it only hurt a little; he just wanted to use this opportunity to scare them and put some pressure on the three of them.What if someone had weaker psychological fortitude and, after breaking down, gave him extra Demonic Path value?Even a mosquito’s leg was still meat, after all.“Hmph, it’s just betting your life with this thing, right? Let’s play, who’s afraid?!”Brother Xu looked at the crossbow, hardened his heart, and pressed the ready button.“Good.”Lu Ze smiled slightly.“Then, let the game begin.”The moment all three prepared, the match began.In everyone’s hands, a silver crossbow bolt appeared simultaneously.Their hands automatically picked up the silver crossbow bolt and placed it into the jade plate.With a gentle flick of a finger, the jade plate spun rapidly a few times and slowly came to a stop.With a “click” sound.The crossbow bolt was cocked, and only then did the three place their crossbows aside.“Don’t say, that sound is quite frightening.”Chen Yiyun’s smile was a little stiff.When out and about, her cultivation and Magic Treasure gave her confidence for self-defense and protection.But upon entering the Illusion Realm, all her cultivation was lost, and her life and death depended entirely on heaven’s will, inevitably causing some lingering fear.“What are you afraid of?! Your head will only get a scar the size of a bowl if it falls off!”Brother Xu said disdainfully.Wang Tianjing narrowed his eyes, saying nothing, seemingly observing the two carefully.From the center of the card pile on the round table, a card was randomly drawn.“This round’s target card is: Heaven.”After being displayed, five cards appeared in the hands of the three simultaneously.“I go first?”Brother Xu was first startled, then fell into thought, looking at his hand of cards.He only had one Heaven card in his hand.According to the rules, if he played a fake card and was challenged, he would have to face a death challenge.After much hesitation, at the last moment for playing a card, Brother Xu chose to play his only Heaven card.“One Heaven.”As soon as his card was thrown out, Wang Tianjing, who was next, revealed a cunning smile.“Two Heaven.”Lu Ze raised an eyebrow.He saw it clearly from behind.This kid played a fake card on his first try; he truly lived up to being a Tianxuan Sect member.It seemed that if he wanted to get the System reward, the one who would be a slight hindrance was him.“Wow, Brother Wang, your cards are so good? You’re not trying to trick us, are you…”Chen Yiyun muttered softly.Wang Tianjing’s gaze did not waver in the slightest: “Who knows?”Chen Yiyun hesitated for a long time, but in the end, she didn’t dare to “challenge,” carefully choosing to play a true card.“One Heaven.”It was Brother Xu’s turn again.Brother Xu’s face was flushed red with frustration.He was a Righteous Path Cultivator with pure roots, usually knowing nothing but Cultivating.Now, he had no Heaven cards in his hand, yet the System forced him to play a Heaven card.Wasn’t this pushing a good human towards the Demonic Path?Brother Xu squeezed each card from left to right, and finally, with trembling hands, he drew a card from the middle and threw it out.“One {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} Heaven…”“Challenge!”Wang Tianjing, as the next player, immediately made his decision.Brother Xu’s card was immediately revealed, and it was clearly a Human card.Brother Xu’s face instantly turned green.“Brother Xu, oh Brother Xu, your expression and actions are too obvious…”Wang Tianjing chuckled, shaking his head.“Hmph, it’s just pulling the trigger once, I don’t believe the first shot will hit!”Brother Xu feigned calmness, letting out a disdainful snort.Hearing this, Lu Ze somehow thought of an old acquaintance.If a certain jinx were to say this here, he would probably be a corpse in no time.Or a certain dark-faced liver emperor…Forget it, Lu Ze couldn't even imagine Zhou Yue playing this game…Brother Xu picked up the crossbow and pressed it against his temple.The Illusion Realm was made too realistically; the feeling of the crossbow touching his scalp was cold and sharp.A sense of impending death made him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.Somehow, he, who had walked on the edge of life and death multiple times, suddenly felt a pang of panic when the crossbow was pressed against his head.In his mind, a scene vaguely emerged—His head being pierced by a crossbow bolt, a tragic sight of him dying with regret and heading to Yellow Springs!“Hiss…”The man, always known for his courage, suddenly gasped in a cold breath.Somehow, he even started to feel some lingering fear.Although under the magical control of Russian roulette, there was only a one-sixth chance of firing this crossbow bolt.But…What if?!No one knew if the next shot would be the crossbow bolt!It looked like one-sixth, but in his opinion, it was fifty-fifty!It was either life or death!In the past, when he went out for training, fighting against the Demonic Path, wrestling with monsters…He relied on genuine strength.But now?The Spiritual Qi that gave him peace of mind was completely isolated by the Illusion Realm!All life and death were decided by the trigger under his thumb!!This feeling was far more thrilling than licking blood from a blade!Because,Life and death are decided by heaven, not by me!Nervous.Extremely nervous!Even a tough guy like Brother Xu couldn’t help but slow his breathing, and at the moment of pulling the trigger, he even involuntarily closed his eyes!“Click”The sound of an empty chamber came.Brother Xu subconsciously let out a long sigh of relief, then forced himself to calmly place the crossbow on the table.Lu Ze was not surprised by Brother Xu’s reaction at all.When he created the Illusion Realm, in order to stimulate the Cultivators’ perception of death, he specifically added a guiding illusion technique.This illusion technique would intensely stimulate the Cultivators’ imagination of “death” and subconsciously make them believe the Illusion Realm was real.“Death scenarios,” combined with the thrilling Russian roulette style of play.These Cultivators, who relied on their cultivation Realm, as long as their minds weren’t that firm, would inevitably produce an instinctive fear.This was betting one’s life.This was the charm of Russian roulette!
