Listening to Zhou Crazy's words full of complaints, Liu Zixuan was quite helpless.

He felt that if Zhou Crazy lived in wartime, he'd definitely be a traitor, and if in ancient times, he would definitely be an eunuch, always acting effeminate, seemingly obedient on the surface but actually undermining, and complaining about everything when things went wrong!

Rolling his eyes at him in exasperation, he then looked at the restored weird creature!

There is nothing in the world that can't be killed, no matter how powerful it is, so Liu Zixuan thought he must have overlooked something to fall into this predicament!

The more critical the moment, the calmer one must be.

He furrowed his brows and began recalling the recent events. The first time he blinded the creature with the Silver Needle, it recovered after circling around the statue. The second time, when the Silver Needle and Soul-Devouring Sword simultaneously hit it, and dozens of wounds appeared, it nearly died but then returned to the statue!

Upon thinking this, Liu Zixuan's eyes suddenly brightened.

The reason the creature couldn't be killed was entirely due to some substance around the statue granting it instant wound-healing abilities!

It's like a person in a sealed environment would feel suffocated, but with sudden air, he'd gradually recover!

As he said this, Liu Zixuan carefully avoided the creature and slowly approached the statue.

Before, he had seen a miniature world inside the statue, like a mirage. But he felt that such peculiar phenomena shouldn't be related to the creature. Besides that, only a pool of clear water remained.

Water?

Thinking of the word, Liu Zixuan couldn't help but glance at the circular object on the main chamber wall.

Without a source, water dries up, and the creature lives on the black fluid in its veins...

Liu Zixuan suddenly slapped his forehead: "Could the reason the creature can't be killed be related to this water?"

As he said this, he quickly stepped forward, reaching the circular object, scooping some water, and sniffing it under his nose. After detecting no poison, he took a sip!

Sweet, refreshing!

This was Liu Zixuan's first impression!

He blurted out, "This is Vitality Water!"

The so-called Vitality Water is essentially spring water, enriched with minerals, and if it's sweet water accumulated for hundreds of years underground, it has longevity-boosting effects. Thus, some people call it Vitality Water!

So that explained it, the Vitality Water must have been here for hundreds or even thousands of years, allowing the creature to heal quickly after injury!

From this, it can also be deduced that the creature must be something related to water. As long as there is Vitality Water, it can remain indestructible!

Liu Zixuan grinned. What nonsense about the Qilin, strange supernatural phenomena, all a hoax. Everything has a trace to follow, and by pondering carefully, one can find its principles!

Since he figured it out, Liu Zixuan knew how to handle the creature!

He raised the Soul-Devouring Sword in his hand, leaped into mid-air, and channeled his Inner Strength into the blade, directly stabbing down into the ground.

Splurch!

The sword blade, imbued with Liu Zixuan's mighty Inner Strength, pierced through the earth. He gritted his teeth and traced a small trench about half a centimeter wide on the ground, thus directly blocking the water from flowing to the statue!

After finishing all this, Liu Zixuan looked at the creature, "Now let's see how much longer you can live! After killing you, I must dissect you to see what you are made of!"

"Hey, hey, hey, you're going to fight again?" Zhou Crazy shouted as he watched Liu Zixuan rushing towards the creature. The previous ordeal had truly made him desperate, not wanting Liu Zixuan to do anything futile!

Liu Zixuan gave him a glare, leaped into the air, and directly controlled the Soul-Devouring Sword to slay the creature.

His agile form and swift swordsmanship made everything seem like an illusion.

After a few strikes, Liu Zixuan returned to Zhou Crazy's side, observing the creature as it continued moving towards the statue, with its wounds slowly healing again.

"I told you not to kill it; it can't be killed at all!" Zhou Crazy mumbled.

Liu Zixuan smirked. There was some residual Vitality Water beside the statue, and it could heal the creature once or twice, but he didn't believe it could keep healing endlessly.

After the creature recovered, Liu Zixuan once again charged forth.

The second time, the creature could no longer return to a fully healed state; the scars were becoming apparent, and Liu Zixuan knew his speculation was correct!

Watching Liu Zixuan attack repeatedly and return, Zhou Crazy sat on the ground, muttering incessantly: "It's over, this kid's possessed, soon, even if the creature doesn't crush him, he'll die of exhaustion!"

"I better figure out how to get out, abort the baby while Zhou Nian's belly isn't obvious, so she won't have the child without a father!"

Muttering as he shifted towards the door, Zhou Crazy didn't dare make big moves, afraid the creature would notice and attack him first.

Liu Zixuan was skilled; even after taking some hits, he wouldn't die, but Zhou Crazy couldn't risk it. One hit from the creature, and he'd be bleeding from all orifices, meeting King Yama on the spot!

"I said when we came in, the Seven-Star Tomb is Ghost Gate, and you didn't believe it, now look, about to be killed by the creature!"

"I've got a bad fate, shouldn't have come down with you. If I can't get out, what about my huge business outside? What about all those pretty girls?"

"Boom!"

Just as Zhou Crazy muttered and crawled a distance, a sudden loud noise echoed nearby. He immediately curled on the ground, hands over his head, pleading: "Big monster, please don't hit me, just hit Liu Zixuan!"

His heart dropped, thinking it was too late, Liu Zixuan must have been crushed, and now it was his turn.

"Hey, why do I increasingly feel like you're just like a woman!"

At this moment, Liu Zixuan's voice sounded near him.

Zhou Crazy tremulously lifted his head to look aside and was so startled he stumbled backward because the creature's corpse lay beside him, its black liquid still flowing out.

And Liu Zixuan stood before him, hands in pockets, a cigarette hanging from his lips, looking leisurely!

"You... you weren't crushed to death?"

Zhou Crazy murmured.

Liu Zixuan stepped forward and yanked Zhou Crazy off the ground, scolding: "Were you wishing me dead, you fool?"

"N-no, it's just too unbelievable! Just now, you looked so exhausted, unable to even fight, and how did you suddenly kill the creature?"
