Chapter 119: Wu

Chapter 119: Wu

The wish Yue Yan made completely confused the Box of Ultimate Bliss.

If it fulfilled this wish, it couldn't fulfill it; if it couldn't fulfill it, then it could fulfill it.

This logical circular instruction directly made the Box of Ultimate Bliss's program malfunction, and its internal energy split into two ryo. The first ryo of energy was for the underlying program to fulfill wishes, and the second ryo was to nullify the original underlying instruction after the wish was fulfilled.

However, both parts of the energy came from the Box of Ultimate Bliss itself, and it was impossible to tell which was stronger. They could only annihilate each other.

Right under the gaze of Yue Yan and the others, the Box of Ultimate Bliss emitted a white light even more intense than before. But this time, the white light was quite unstable, flickering on and off like a poorly connected light bulb.

Seeing this, Yue Yan showed a smile. Sure enough, to deal with this single-threaded system, one only needed a logical loop to make it crash. Before fulfilling this wish, no one could make another wish.

Actually, there was an even simpler wish to prevent others from using the Box of Ultimate Bliss, which was to make it recite the value of pi.

As is known, pi is an infinite non-repeating decimal. Even if the planet beneath their feet perished with time, pi could never be recited completely.

But there was a Mondai with this method. That was, when fulfilling the wish, it would consume the chakra of the Box of Ultimate Bliss. Although just reporting the numbers wouldn't consume much chakra, one never knew what might happen. It was better to just make the Box of Ultimate Bliss crash so that there would be no need to worry about it in the future.

As the flickering of the Box of Ultimate Bliss became more and more intense, a sharp cracking sound clearly reached the ears of everyone present.

Looking over, there was actually a crack on the Box of Ultimate Bliss. After this crack, countless tiny cracks also appeared one after another.

After the white light completely disappeared, that pure sense of fear also vanished. Looking at the motionless Box of Ultimate Bliss, Yue Yan stroked his chin.

"If nothing unexpected happens, Wu should come out soon, right?"

Just after saying that, Yue Yan couldn't help but slap his forehead.

"Damn it! How could I forget that whenever I say stuff like this, something unexpected always happens!"

"What's the principle behind this?"

Hearing what Yue Yan had just muttered to himself, Yagura looked at Yue Yan in a daze. But before Yue Yan could explain anything, the Box of Ultimate Bliss showed strange signs again.

It could be seen that the statues representing joy, anger, sorrow, and pleasure on the four sides of the Box of Ultimate Bliss separated, revealing a wall engraved with something like an ape. Then the ape's mouth opened wide, and in the next moment, just like a Peashooter shooting at zombies, it kept ejecting something.

Taking a closer look, what was being ejected were actually pale-skinned people.

The ejection lasted for a long time, and about three hundred pale-skinned people were ejected, piling up into a small mountain.

If Yue Yan and the others hadn't noticed something was wrong and left quickly, they might have been buried in the pile of people.

Looking at the Box of Ultimate Bliss that had stopped spitting out people and fallen silent, Yue Yan thought to himself that this scene was different from the original story.

Just then, a person closest to Yue Yan and the others slowly struggled out of the pile of people.

After stretching his neck, the man opened his eyes and sized up Yue Yan and the others.

"Do you know this guy?"

Hearing Yue Yan's question, Wuwei shook his head.

"Although we threw quite a few people into the Box of Ultimate Bliss to activate it, I don't remember seeing this guy before."

"Alright."

Yue Yan nodded. It made sense. The Box of Ultimate Bliss had been around for so long. It wasn't just the Grass ninja village that had gotten it. It was normal for there to be some strangers thrown into it.

"Finally, someone has successfully activated the Box of Ultimate Bliss."

The man took a deep breath, looking extremely intoxicated. Then, he looked at Yue Yan.

"You must be the one who injected chakra into the Box of Ultimate Bliss. I have to say, it's quite amazing."

Hearing this, Yue Yan frowned.

"What do you want to say?"

After hearing this, the man let out a soft laugh.

"Judging from the Mondai you presented with your wish just now, you wanted to render the Box of Ultimate Bliss useless, right? I can clearly tell you that you've succeeded."

As he said this, he turned to look at the Box of Ultimate Bliss behind him, unable to suppress a smile on his lips.

"Thanks to you, I'll never be bound by that lousy box again."

Now, Yue Yan knew who he was.

"Are you Wu?"

Hearing this, Wu nodded with a smile.

"Yes, I'm Wu. To make that lousy box lose its seal effect, I've done a lot to deceive people. I spread the rumor that as long as you input enough chakra into the Box of Ultimate Bliss, you can fulfill all your wishes, gradually weakening its seal ability. Before, I could only use my clone to come out for a short while after others made their wishes. But now, I'm finally out completely."

Perhaps because he had been locked in the Box of Ultimate Bliss for too long, Wu rambled on a lot. He basically rambled on about how the Sage of Six Paths sealed him and how dark the inside of the Box of Ultimate Bliss was.

Yue Yan listened quietly without interrupting him, thinking that since he was so talkative, he might reveal his weakness. But obviously, Wu wasn't that dumb.

After expressing his current excitement, Wu looked at Yue Yan and the others again.

"As a reward for setting me free, I won't kill you or harm you. Just step aside. I really want to see the world after a thousand years."

Hearing this, Yue Yan shrugged and stepped aside.

Seeing this, Wu was very satisfied with Yue Yan's sensible behavior. After giving him a look that seemed to say "You're a smart kid", he walked out of the cave.

When they stepped out of the cave, just as Wu was about to leave, he was stopped by Yue Yan.

Wu couldn't help frowning at this.

"What? You want to stop me?"

"Hey, hey, hey, my original target wasn't the Box of Ultimate Bliss. It was you."

Hearing Yue Yan's somewhat flippant words, Wu was so angry that he laughed. As an ancient demon, there was actually someone daring to talk to him like this.

"Since you're seeking death, I'll grant your wish."

As soon as the voice rang out, Wu's figure vanished from the spot. When he reappeared, he was already in front of Yue Yan. His right hand turned into a sharp claw covered with black feathers and stabbed straight at Yue Yan's head.

Just when the claw was merely one centimeter away from Yue Yan's head, it couldn't move forward even half a centimeter.

Glancing at the golden claw holding his wrist, Wu was a bit surprised by the outcome of his attack. As soon as he looked at Yue Yan, he met his eyes glinting with Lightning Bolt.

"You can go faster. I can handle it."

Hearing Yue Yan's taunt, Wu let out a hoarse laugh that didn't sound human.

"Hehehe, thinking you're powerful enough to run wild in front of me. You're really..."

Before Wu could finish his sentence, Yue Yan landed a solid punch on his chest and sent him flying.

"If you wanna fight, fight. What's the point of all this blabbering?"
