When "God" Decides To Start Over

Chapter 169 The Problematic Shadow



This city... actually has a shadow...

For such a large city, having a shadow is quite normal. However, the city gate facing the sunset and casting a shadow on the ground in front of the city makes it rather fantastical.

If the sun were coming from the other side of the city, Li Xiu could understand this kind of shadow.

But facing the sunset and having such a shadow, Li Xiu really couldn't understand it.

When he came out just now, he had already noticed this problem, but after looking left and right, he couldn't find where the problem was.

Until he put his face on the ground and looked at that shadow again, he saw something incredible.

This shadow actually had thickness.

How could a shadow have thickness? Li Xiu couldn't comprehend it. At first, he thought he was seeing things, but after carefully observing for a long time, he finally confirmed that his eyes were not deceiving him, nor was it a trick of the light or the terrain. That shadow really had thickness, even if only the thickness of a piece of paper, but still an unbelievable thing.

The entire shadow seemed like a piece of paper stuck to the sandy ground, but when Li Xiu stood up and looked again, the shadow was no different from any ordinary shadow.

Because here, although the sun was the sunset and looked as if it might set at any moment, in reality, it would never set and hang there indefinitely.

So Li Xiu couldn't determine whether the shadow would change with the light or always remain in this state.

"What's the deal with this shadow? Surely not a magic spirit, if it were a magic spirit, Chu Jun would have noticed. Also, Li Xiu has come out many times, and this shadow hasn't attacked him. But if it's not a magic spirit, why is this shadow so strange?" Li Xiu was somewhat puzzled.

He watched for quite a while, then rose and walked into the shadow, drawing the Fire Lotus Sword and slashed at the shadow with one sword after another.

Yellow sand was sliced into deep marks by the sword power, yet the shadow showed no reaction, as if it were a normal shadow. The sand scattered and flew, but the shadow still showed no change.

"Really bizarre!" Li Xiu then ran outside the shadow, pressed his face to the ground, and saw that the shadow still had a paper-thin thickness.

"I just don't believe it," Li Xiu ran back to the city gate and then summoned his magic spirit, attacking the shadow one by one.

The results, whether Demigod Shana or Jedi Knight, were that their attacks merely scattered sand, proving useless against the shadow.

Li Xiu, refusing to believe in such evil, continued to try; Black Death Demon King's attacks were ineffective, Love God Shooter's attacks were ineffective; even summoning Pink Nightmare and Masked Emperor still proved ineffective.

After summoning the White Night Female Demon, Li Xiu saw her form and slightly paused.

During the day, the White Night Female Demon was in a blue dress, yet at night she transformed into a purple dress.

However, now, even though the sun had not set, the White Night Female Demon was in a purple dress.

Li Xiu, with a shift of thoughts, prompted the White Night Female Demon to walk outside the shadow, and then a miraculous thing happened—the vibrant blue dress on the White Night Female Demon transformed into a mysterious purple, and even the expression and demeanor of the White Night Female Demon began to turn bewitching.

This transformation from White Demon to Night Demon, but merely due to a shadow, was impossible to induce such a change in the White Night Female Demon.

"This shadow indeed has issues." Li Xiu returned to the city gate, standing inside the gate himself, letting the White Night Female Demon stand at the gate, and sent out a purple lip-print flying kiss towards that shadow.

When the White Night Female Demon is in a blue dress, her flying kiss can trigger potential and increase combat power.

But in a purple dress, it can cause negative effects, reducing the strength and speed of the opponent.

Unfortunately, the flying kiss itself has no attack power, so it cannot inflict damage.

However, when the purple lip-print flying kiss landed on the shadow, Li Xiu was surprised to see the shadow tremble.

But it merely trembled once, so quickly Li Xiu almost wondered if he had been mistaken.

Again prompting the White Night Female Demon to give a flying kiss, this time Li Xiu watched the shadow closely and indeed noticed the shadow tremble again, it wasn't an illusion.

Enduring two purple lip-print flying kisses, the shadow merely trembled each time and nothing else happened.

Having the White Night Female Demon try a few more times, the result was the same, with the shadow merely trembling before ceasing to respond.

"Perhaps the White Night Female Demon's power is too weak, causing only a stir without a true effect. But knowing there is power able to reach it, the situation is manageable," Li Xiu summoned the Forbidden Spear and fired at the shadow.

Results aligned with Li Xiu's expectations, the Forbidden Spear couldn't fire bullets, proving the shadow wasn't a magic spirit, prior Chu Jun detection was correct.

Since the Forbidden Spear proved ineffective, Li Xiu employed the power of the Evil Spirit Token, glowing blue light energy across himself, then threw a punch towards the ground.

Crack!

Below Li Xiu's fist, the sound of glass shattering emerged, and beneath his fist, shadow displayed cracks.

"There's hope!" Li Xiu noticed and delivered punch after punch upon the shadow, causing the fissure within the shadow beneath him to grow larger.

Out of the cracks emerged black light, not sand.
