659: Chapter 657 Taking Participation Personally, Triggering the Exclusive Mission Once Again

Chu Xuan recalled the giant claw he had just seen in the illusory image.

It was more than a hundred meters wide, densely covered with scarlet scales, and exuded a chilling, dim light, easily crushing the white emperor fighter; it was obviously not a human hand.

However, it could not be ruled out that it might be some kind of martial dao Divine Ability.

"To think it could anticipate in advance and intercept me..."

Chu Xuan's thoughts stirred, and this time he actively triggered [Peeping Fate].

[Your spirituality value - 400]

A scene was outlined in Chu Xuan's mind, which was precisely the various situations he had just seen in the illusory image. Based on this, he executed [Peeping Fate] to deduce the "future" that was about to happen.

The illusory image emerged once again.

This time it was much clearer.

...

The scene in the image was at early morning, just as the sky was beginning to brighten. Chu Xuan was leading the crowd of the Heavenly Dao Alliance across three prefectures to arrive at the prefecture city of Eastern Province.

There was a small Secret Realm there, which could be used to cross a distance of a hundred thousand miles directly to three thousand miles north of the capital of the Great Cang Dynasty.

Chu Xuan intended to use this Secret Realm to lead the Heavenly Dao Alliance to attack the capital of the Great Cang Dynasty.

However, just as they arrived at the prefecture city and before they could enter the Secret Realm, a spy sent word that the Four Great Sects had long since ambushed a martial dao army inside, waiting at their ease.

Almost at the same time, a large number of Martial Artists rushed out from within the Secret Realm.

The scenes above flashed past quickly, feeling as if they were running at 64x speed. Chu Xuan could only view the general outline through the deduction of [Peeping Fate], while the specific details were not clear.

Chu Xuan understood that this was merely a deduction based on current existing conditions and the death scenes in [Peeping Fate] as assumptions, and there might be errors compared to the real future.

However, Chu Xuan did not care about these; what he truly wanted to deduce and view were the subsequent images.

The scenes in the deduction gradually slowed down, as if dropping from 64x acceleration to 16x.

When the Martial Artists summoned by the Four Great Sects rushed out, many Martial Artists ambushed within the Heavenly Dao Alliance no longer concealed their tracks and instantly erupted.

The scene was once in Confusion.

Originally, Chu Xuan had planned to cooperate with the Strange Creatures of the Shendao Sect to jointly slaughter the Martial Artists of the four sects, but the Strange Creatures did not appear as promised in the deduced image.

The next instant, the deduced image suddenly blurred.

"They're here!"

Chu Xuan's heart tightened, and sure enough, he saw ice and snow, sheets of rain, and thunder appearing simultaneously in the illusory image, covering almost most of the battlefield, followed closely by violent winds and bloody rain.

In this deduction, Chu Xuan was on guard, releasing a [Slash] at the very first moment, and then continuously casting teleportation to leave, forcibly fighting his way out of the encirclement.

This time, his injuries were not severe.

Not only that, after taking out the white emperor fighter, Chu Xuan also changed directions to drive away, but was still intercepted by the abruptly appearing giant claw.

In the final scene, Chu Xuan slashed open the giant claw, but when he landed on the ground, he discovered he had been surrounded by numerous Strange Creatures.

Afterwards, the ice, snow, thunder, and rainstorms also swept over, and after that, amid howling winds, there was a torrential downpour of blood.

The deduction was interrupted once again.

This time using [Peeping Fate], besides the initially consumed 400 points of spirituality value, it subsequently continuously consumed over 100 more points of spirituality value.

Adding up to nearly 600 points, the consumption was not small, but Chu Xuan also captured a lot of useful information from it.

"Sure enough, the giant claw that appeared at the end belongs to the Strange Creatures of the Shendao Sect..." Chu Xuan's expression flickered uncertainly.

In the scenes before the deduction was interrupted, although those Strange Creatures were extremely hazy, seemingly due to the lack of more "existing clues," they were not seen very clearly in the images of [Peeping Fate], as if shrouded in a mist.

But Chu Xuan clearly recognized one of the women in gauze skirts among them!

It was precisely Minge whom he had just encountered not long ago!

"From this look of it, my impersonation of Zhou Fan's identity has likely been discovered, which is why I am being targeted."

Chu Xuan pondered thoughtfully:

"Logically speaking, even if my impersonation of Zhou Fan's identity was seen through, to the Shendao Sect, I am still a Strange Creature, and our common enemy should be resolving the Four Great Sects."

"But the result is that the Shendao Sect gave up a great opportunity, chose to deal a fatal blow to me, and seemingly vaguely has a trend of joining forces with the Four Great Sects! Then, there is only one possibility..."

Chu Xuan's heart suddenly stirred: "My identity as a Purifier has been exposed!"

"Where did a flaw appear? Could it be that using the Fire of Nirvana left traces..."

Chu Xuan frowned deeply.

There were some Strange Creatures that could identify his identity through [Fire of Nirvana].

Regarding this, every time he used the Fire of Nirvana, he would do it under the cover of thunder light. He was extremely certain that previously when facing Minge, he had not exposed it.

"As such, could it be that when I killed Young Alliance Leader Qi Yun, Qingyang, and Hanshuang, I didn't perfectly hide the Fire of Nirvana, and was recognized by the Strange Creatures present?"

Chu Xuan's gaze swept across the surroundings, scanning with the [Eye of Insight].

At this moment, a thought suddenly rose in his mind, which was to slaughter all the Strange Creatures here.

The killing intent flashed and vanished.

Many people present instinctively avoided Chu Xuan's gaze, faintly feeling a chill down their spines, especially Chili and Xuanchen, whose foreheads broke out in cold sweat.

"Go on a killing spree, rake in a haul of spirituality value and rule fragments, and then transform again through [Myriad Forms] to stay far away from this place?"

Chu Xuan narrowed his eyes, and suddenly the center of his brows ached with swelling again.

[You triggered the Talent "Peeping Fate", your spirituality value - 500!]

In his mind, illusory images flashed once again.

The scenes in the images this time were even more hazy and blurry, only faintly visible: when he made a move to kill Xuanchen and Chili, this Secret Realm shattered with a bang, and a strange giant hand densely covered in scales tore through the firmament and came.

Two or three seconds later, before Chu Xuan could continue consuming spirituality value to check the details carefully, the image directly shattered and vanished.

"This strange giant hand..." Chu Xuan's heart tightened.

Afterwards, when Chu Xuan wanted to use [Peeping Fate] to deduce again, it was already unable to take effect.

"Cannot see clearly, it failed..." Chu Xuan immediately thought of when they were in the Tianxing Mountains, right before the Dragon Turtle was about to appear, Lin Jie also had a feeling of impending catastrophe.

Although Lin Jie quickly found a way to escape at that time, he did not know specifically what had happened.

"In this different world, the Talent has been restricted... Besides this, it should also be because of that strange giant hand. The other party's degree of danger is probably no less than that giant Dragon Turtle."

Reaching this thought, Chu Xuan's heart suddenly stirred.

"From this look of it, the strange giant hand can descend at any time. This should be the method the Shendao Sect originally used to deal with Young Alliance Leader Qi Yun. If I make a move against Xuanchen and Chili, the other party will descend immediately!"

"That is to say... at least for now, it is highly likely that the other party has not seen through my identity as a Purifier. Otherwise, given the Strange Creatures' hostility toward the Purifier, under the circumstance that their strength is clearly stronger than mine, it would be impossible for them to endure for so long..."

"Then... should I leave first before being discovered and change an identity? Waiting for the Heavenly Dao Alliance, Shendao Sect, and Four Great Sects to melee with each other, and then stir up trouble from the middle?"

Chu Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, checking the numerous items he currently had.

Finally, his gaze locked onto two cards.

For a long time, Chu Xuan suddenly let out a cold sneer.

"If I run away now, they will lose their target. Even if I mediate from the middle, I don't know how long I'll have to wait before a direct conflict breaks out, especially those few in the Shengyuan Realm. As known from the images in the deduction, all of them won't scatter the hawk until they see the rabbit..."

"Now although [Peeping Fate] is restricted, when encountering a death crisis, there will still be some early warnings, and I already roughly know the time when the crisis will occur..."

"Since that is the case, why should I run away and hide? Might as well directly enter the game in person, kill a few in the Shengyuan Realm, and rake in a big haul!"

Reaching this thought, a System prompt sounded.

[You sensed a crisis and prepared to set up a scheme with it. You have triggered an exclusive quest...]
