I Don't Want to Get Hurt, So I'll Max Out My Defense Chapter 1239

Chapter 1239: Chapter 1240 Xiao Lao Di Got Stuck Chapter 1239: Chapter 1240 Xiao Lao Di Got Stuck Three breaths had passed, and the chessboard table had taken the white pieces first, but the central point was blocked by the corpse of the little yellow chicken, leaving no space to place a piece.

Suddenly, in the void, the winds surged and amidst the darkness, lightning flashed, and thunder rolled, a bolt striking down on the little yellow chicken's corpse, intending to obliterate it into ash. However, the little yellow chicken just rolled around on the spot and didn't get destroyed as expected.

With the infinite resurrection ability, Ji Wuqing's corpse was tougher than imagined. After the thunder strike, the little yellow chicken just turned into a roasted chicken, with no other changes.

There seems to be a certain force protecting the corpse in secret at the time of its death, making it impossible to cause real damage.

Li Xiaobai, being very understanding, pushed the roasted chicken back to its original place, blocking the central point again. The chessboard remained silent for a while before a chess piece was finally placed in one corner.

“Ah, if the senior doesn't play the central point, then I have won!”

Suddenly, with a snap, the next second the entire chessboard was occupied by black pieces, completely filled.

“Senior, thank you for letting me win.”

“I suggest you change the rules to blind chess next time, junior will make the first move.”

Li Xiaobai laughed loudly. The residual willpower within the Heavenly Secrets Tower was strong, but too rigid and unadaptive, which he had exploited.

The chessboard stayed silent, seeming quite frustrated. Two bolts of lightning struck, and the black and white chess pieces instantly vanished.

At the same time, a passage opened on the rooftop, leading to the Bronze Great Hall. Li Xiaobai pocketed the little yellow chicken's corpse and along with Ergouzi, slowly stepped into it. The moment the passage closed, he impulsively smashed a billion in the System Mall and redeemed a Half-Saint Godzilla.

“Just sit here and play chess with it. If that monk Wuyan shows up later, just take him on.”

Li Xiaobai commanded.

“Roar!”

The huge creature roared furiously, shaking the whole grand tomb.

After all this, the Primordial Behemoth obediently sat in front of the chessboard and began to play.

It was only a moment later that Li Xiaobai began to receive notifications of changing figures in System Attribute Points.

[Attribute Points +1 million…]
[Attribute Points +2 million…]
[Attribute Points +3 million…]
[Attribute Points +4 million…]
The value of Attribute Points soared, Li Xiaobai and Godzilla, both understanding that the purpose was to farm Attribute Points rather than engage in a direct combat. Hence, Godzilla continuously controlled its probing efforts within a certain range. It neither provoked wild bombardments from the Heavenly Secrets Tower nor did it stop at mere surface-level interactions, which means, Godzilla was perfectly edging on the brink of provocation, with excellent control of its limits.

“Kid, you're pretty adept, resembling the Buddha in his heydays!”

Ergouzi stuck out its tongue, too eager to rush inside. It believed that the mechanism holding Senior Xiao Lao Di must absolutely contain a treasure!

Reaching a familiar territory, a place with halls like the Elixir Hall, Talisman Hall, Instrument Hall, etc., which were already abandoned and covered in dust, as they had been emptied by Senior Xiao Lao Di the last time they were here.

The only hall that still had some stock was the Bronze Great Hall at the far end.

One man and one dog paced into it, Li Xiaobai threw a ball of fire to light the way forward, and the door of the Bronze Hall opened slightly, revealing a crack filled with the glimmer of treasures.

“Boy, the treasure is inside, let's hurry in!”

Ergouzi, with its mouth agape, excitedly yelled.

“Yes, Ergouzi, whatever can trap Senior Xiao Lao Di must be extraordinary, let's secure the treasure first, we can't let others get ahead of us!”

Li Xiaobai also wore a face filled with joy and fervor, the two of them made quite some noise at the doorway, but they didn't move a step, each coaxing the other to go in first.

Though the door of the Bronze Hall was clearly open, it could trap a being from the Saint Realm inside, which clearly suggested issues with the interior space, maybe one would not be able to come out once in. Li Xiaobai thought to have Ergouzi try his luck first, not expecting the dog to have the same idea.

“Woof, boy, why aren't you moving?”

Ergouzi expressed its dissatisfaction.

“You dead dog, thinking of setting me up, just go in and check it out!”

Li Xiaobai couldn't hold back his anger and kicked the naughty dog.

“Woof, that's called great minds think alike, Buddha foresaw the crisis, there's great terror inside!”

“Boy, in face of difficulty, we should help each other and get through together!”

Ergouzi spoke.

“Then let's go in together.”

Li Xiaobai pulled out a stack of talismans, steadied his spirit, in this inner world of the grand tomb, there were no disciples from the Buddhist Sect to maintain order, space was not fixed, and talismans could be freely used to navigate. If they sensed anything wrong, they would leave immediately without delay.

The duo cautiously squeezed through the door crack. They didn't sense any dangerous aura, but the sight inside startled them.

The scenery inside the Bronze Great Hall was still the same as the last time, with chunks of Flesh Mountain all around, and in the center, a huge crystal was placed, storing the old man who looked exactly like Senior Xiao Lao Di, but at this moment, there was not just the old man inside the crystal, but also an additional half a body.

Senior Xiao Lao Di's upper body was somehow stuck into the crystal, leaving his lower half flailing outside, which looked quite ridiculous, as he was actually stuck inside!

“Just this?”

“Is this what trapped you?”

Li Xiaobai and Ergouzi exchanged a glance, filled with disappointment. They thought some remarkable treasure had emerged, but it turned out to be just this crystal, which couldn't be carried away. This trip seemed like a waste.

“Yo!”

“Boy, you're pretty quick!”

“Quickly pull the old man out, this imposter actually dared to pull me, so rude!”

“Save the old man, and I'll give you a secret manual!”

The Senior Xiao Lao Di within the crystal saw their figures, blinked his eyes, and urgently spoke.

“Senior, show me how you got in there, and I'll give you two secret manuals.”

Li Xiaobai circled the crystal, tapped it casually, as hard as rock, not penetrable by external forces.

“The imposter inside this crystal is alive, it was he who pulled the old man in when I was off guard!”

Senior Xiao Lao Di explained. After separating in the Buddha Country, he always had suspicions about the cultivator inside the crystal, thus he entered the tomb again to investigate, but unexpectedly, the old man inside the crystal suddenly pulled him, and then his upper body was stuck inside.

He was also speechless inside, if you're going to pull, pull me all the way in, why stop halfway?

“Let me tell you, this imposter is very tricky, during my time trapped here, there was once a sudden total loss of power, it took a full quarter of an hour before it gradually came back, definitely his doing!”

Senior Xiao Lao Di said.

Total loss of power?

That might be related to the time when the old beggar suddenly obtained the strength of the Saint Realm.

“Senior, throw some premium Immortal Stones out, junior will save you!”
