Chapter 646: Scream Out Loudly When It Hurts
"If we continue to be tortured like this, we'll probably be dead before we even finish all the punishments." Zhou Wen looked at Chu He and asked, "Professor Chu, besides being tortured, are there any other ways to gain steps? When we came here before, we encountered some dimensional creatures. Will those dimensional creatures leave behind anything special after they die?"
Chu He shook his head with certainty and said, "There is no other way. Only by being tortured in the torture chamber can you gain steps."
Zhou Wen turned his head and looked at the long street. He saw that except for them, most of the others had already entered the torture room to be punished.
It’s a pity that no sound can be heard ten steps away, otherwise I would definitely hear the screams coming from all over the street.
"Junior brother, do you want to try the torture of a thousand cuts? Maybe you can withstand it better than me and can last a few more steps?" Liuyun encouraged from the side. He wanted to see how long Zhou Wen could hold out under such torture.
"I'd better give up." Zhou Wen shook his head. He looked around at the torture chambers and decided to try a less severe punishment.
Although the torture chamber can be entered directly without having to walk there, the range is within ten steps. If the torture chamber is more than ten stone slabs away from them, there is no way to be tortured.
There were only two torture chambers, one on each side, ten steps away from them. The one on the left was where Liuyun had just been tortured.
The one on the right is a punishment of flogging, with the words "one whip, one step" written on it.
It is similar to the "Thousand Cuts and Scrapes", both of which involve hanging the victim, but one involves cutting flesh and the other involves whipping.
Liuyun was also looking at the whip. Seeing that it was a rattan whip, he said, "Then I'll try this whipping again. My skin is still quite tough, so I should be able to withstand a few more blows."
After saying that, Liuyun shouted towards the whipping room: "I want to be whipped."
Just like last time, Liuyun's body disappeared and was hung in the whipping room. Then a ghost-like white figure appeared and picked up the whip.
The vine whip unfolded when it was swung by the white shadow. Sharp thorns appeared on the originally smooth whip, like a thorn vine.
"Snap!" With a crisp whip sound, a bloody whip mark suddenly appeared on Liuyun's body.
After a few whips, Liuyun's body was already covered in blood and flesh, which looked even more terrifying than the thousands of cuts he had just suffered.
Liuyun only lasted a dozen or so whips this time before giving up. After being released, he looked a little dispirited.
"Damn it, this is simply not giving us a way to live. How can humans bear such punishment? If we are punished, we will die. If we are not punished, we will die too. What's the point of being punished?" Liuyun cursed.
"Let me give it a try." Zhou Wen thought for a moment and shouted towards the whipping room, "I want to be whipped."
As soon as the voice fell, Zhou Wen felt a flash before his eyes, and his body seemed to be moved by some force. When he reacted, he was already hanging in the whip room.
A white ghost appeared before his eyes, already holding a whip.
"Junior brother, if it hurts, just scream out. Don't hold it in. The more you hold it in, the more painful it will be. It will feel much better if you scream out. The louder you scream, the better." Liuyun said gloatingly.
He was actually just trying to find a way to have fun while suffering and relieve his mental stress, not because he really wanted to see Zhou Wen scream.
"Okay." Zhou Wen responded and switched the Yuan Qi Jue to the Dao body. The gods avoided the fate and closed their eyes.
However, the gods' avoidance of fate had no effect on the white ghost. Obviously, the punishment in this torture chamber did not fall into the category of forbidden power.
Seeing that the gods' avoidance was useless, Zhou Wen quickly switched to Xiao Prajna and activated the Hell King's Soul at the same time. Under the influence of the Hell King's Soul, Zhou Wen had extremely strong control over himself. Not only did his physique become stronger, but he could also eliminate pain.
No matter how serious the injuries on his body were, Zhou Wen would not feel any pain, as if the pain nerves had been removed.
Zhou Wen didn't plan to continue being tortured, he just wanted to try out the whipping to see what kind of power this punishment had.
But just as Zhou Wen used the Prison King's soul, the white ghost that had about to whip him suddenly retracted the whip and did not strike him any further.
"Junior brother, what's the matter? You can't be giving up just because you can't even withstand a whip?" Liuyun saw this scene and thought Zhou Wen had given up.
But what happened next made Liuyun open his mouth wide.
The white ghost holding the whip suddenly knelt down in front of Zhou Wen with a thud, knocked his head to the ground, and lay there trembling.
Snap!
The shackles that locked Zhou Wen's hands opened automatically, allowing Zhou Wen's body to fall down.
However, Zhou Wen did not give up the torture, so he did not return to the long street, but ended up in the whipping room.
His feet landed on the ground. There were no numbers on the floor, probably because steps were not counted in the torture chamber.
"Junior brother...what's going on..." Liuyun stared at Zhou Wen and the trembling white ghost lying in front of Zhou Wen in amazement.
Zhou Wen himself had not expected that his Prison King Soul would have such an effect.
After glancing at the white ghost lying on the ground, Zhou Wen pondered for a moment and said to it, "Stand up."
The white ghost was very obedient and stood up carefully, but its body was still shaking and it looked as if it was extremely frightened.
"Don't be afraid. Come, whip me." Zhou Wen said softly to the white ghost.
The white ghost trembled again, and suddenly fell to the ground, kowtowed to Zhou Wenmeng.
"Stand up right there. If I tell you to, you must whip me. This is an order." Zhou Wen said coldly to the white ghost.
The white ghost climbed up tremblingly, holding the whip in his hand, but he didn't dare to hit Zhou Wen.
"Just smoke when I tell you to, but you have to smoke gently, just until you touch it." Zhou Wen instructed the white ghost.
The white ghost held the whip but still didn't dare to move. Zhou Wen glared at it, and it finally swung the whip and hit Zhou Wen's body.
The whip whizzed through the air, but only touched Zhou Wen's clothes and was immediately retracted. Zhou Wen only felt his skin lightly touched by the clothes, and there was no pain at all.
The white ghost was frightened and fell to the ground and kowtowed again.
"You did a good job. Yes, that's it. Whip me a few more times." Zhou Wen encouraged.
The white ghost then stood up tremblingly and attacked Zhou Wen's body again. Just like before, it retracted its attack when it touched his clothes.
Zhou Wen found a place to sit down, took out his cell phone and watched it while being tortured by the white ghost.
"Here... hit harder here... my shoulders are a little sore... hit this side for me... use a little more force..." Zhou Wen kept directing the white ghost where to hit.
"Is this possible?" Liuyun and Chuhe were stunned watching from outside, and they were dumbfounded.
The original terrifying atmosphere disappeared at this moment. All that was left was the white ghost holding a whip and serving Zhou Wen like a technician in a friction shop.
Still coding, so I'll have to wait a while for the next chapter.
