Cultivating Through The Game-Chapter 530 - 306: Death Wooden Man Game

In the blink of an eye, Luo Heng had already covered half the distance.

At this moment, the frequency of the wooden man's head turning was terrifying, like a rapidly spinning top, making one worry if its head would spin off.

"This is only halfway through, and it's already this fast. I feel that if I go in, I probably won't make it thirty meters before getting caught," Chen Qingyun remarked, watching Luo Heng in a standoff with the wooden man.

In such a tense environment, Luo Heng's long period of precise control over his body gradually made him feel his Qi Blood boiling.

When this feeling arose, Luo Heng sensed he might be on the verge of a breakthrough. It had been a long time since he had experienced his Qi Blood bubbling up automatically like this.

Not only did he feel no fatigue now, but he was even more exhilarated. Every nerve was taut, every muscle was pulsing, every trace of Qi Blood was boiling...

"It's now."

Luo Heng seized the moment the wooden man's head turned to step forward. Just as his foot landed and the heel of his back foot lifted, he came to a halt.

The wooden man turned his head just in time to see the stationary Luo Heng, mechanically revolving its head back.

The moment it turned, Luo Heng took another step forward...

Gradually, Luo Heng's steps changed to tiptoeing, both feet landing on their toes, which minimized the time his feet remained aloft. As long as his toes lightly touched the ground, he could move forward.

He was only ten meters away from the wooden man, but at this point, the wooden man stopped turning its head and just stared at Luo Heng, leaving him with no opportunity to take another step.

The wooden man's fingers moved rapidly across the wall, creating a flurry of afterimages, while its head almost stopped moving, staring intently at Luo Heng.

Meeting the wooden man's gaze, sweat started trickling down Luo Heng's forehead. He could barely catch the moment the wooden man turned its head.

The moment was extremely brief, and Luo Heng had no confidence he could seize that instant to move forward without being noticed by the wooden man.

In Chen Qingyun's eyes, after Luo Heng got closer, the wooden man just kept staring at him without turning its head. Luo Heng also remained in place without moving.

Chen Qingyun shouted toward the ceiling, "Is this wooden man malfunctioning? It won't move at all."

The voice of the wolf butler echoed, "Rest assured, Mr. Guest. None of the magical puppets in the maze of fortune will malfunction. This is just part of the normal game rules."

Chen Qingyun's excited expression quickly calmed after hearing the wolf butler's voice, and a gleam flashed in his eyes.

"It seems the wolf butler is always watching us, so our caution was warranted," Chen Qingyun telepathically communicated to Lu Yu.

Lu Yu nodded subtly. At such a close range, no one could intercept their spiritual power communication.

"Luo Heng has been standing there for a while now. How do we get past this last ten meters?" Chen Qingyun asked.

When discussing matters within the maze, he and Lu Yu wouldn't always communicate telepathically. If they kept doing it without speaking, it could easily attract the wolf butler's suspicion.

Speaking at appropriate moments, and even communicating telepathically while talking, would minimize the wolf butler's attention.

Lu Yu glanced at the red line and had a sudden idea. He took out the magic rope from his backpack and said to Luo Heng, "Don't move; maintain your current position. Let me see if I can succeed."

With one end of the magic rope in Lu Yu's hand, the other end extended past the red line.

As soon as the magic rope entered the red line's range, the wooden man's gaze shifted to it. After a moment of hesitation, it made no move, concluding it wasn't a living thing and thus not within its "kill" range.

Lu Yu smiled when he saw the magic rope could enter the red line's range. It quickly elongated, stretching toward Luo Heng.

Once inside the red line, the wooden man dismissed the magic rope as a target and stopped paying attention to it.

Under Lu Yu's control, the magic rope extended to Luo Heng's back, slowly wrapping around his waist.

Luo Heng felt something moving around his waist, but his eyes couldn't move, so he held back. Compared to the thing moving at his waist, he was more worried the wooden man would twist his neck off because of it.

The wooden man remained motionless as the magic rope wrapped around Luo Heng's waist. With a slight movement, Luo Heng's body was pulled back by a millimeter, causing the wooden man's head to halt instantly, fixing its gaze on Luo Heng.

Luo Heng was startled, "Damn, Lu Yu, are you trying to get me killed!"

After a moment of staring, the wooden man resumed its high-speed head-turning without attacking Luo Heng.

In its judgment, Luo Heng had not moved and was still a "wooden man."

"Stay like this; I'll get you to it," Lu Yu told Luo Heng.

Luo Heng remained still, not responding to Lu Yu's words. He wasn't sure if spiritual power communication counted as movement, so he simply stayed put, letting Lu Yu handle everything.

Lu Yu manipulated the magic rope, moving Luo Heng to the wooden man's side, leaving only about a meter between them. Luo Heng only needed to reach out to grab the lucky card hanging on the wooden man's chest.

After setting Luo Heng down, Lu Yu, seeing the reflection of the lucky card on the wooden man's chest through Luo Heng's eyes, had a sudden idea. He let go of Luo Heng with the magic rope and reached for the lucky card.

Bang~ The incredibly sturdy magic rope, capable of restraining those in the sea of Qi realm, exploded into countless fluttering shreds the moment it touched the lucky card.

"Please, dear guest, follow the game rules. First-time violations come with a warning; a second violation will lead directly to imprisonment," the wolf butler's voice sounded above.
