Dragon Ball: Being able to revive means you're courting death? How naive!

Chapter 318 The Resilient Son Gohan

The atmosphere atop the towering Kalin Tower was both exhilarating and subtly tense.

Ma Rong, Yachirobe, and Kalin the Immortal sat around an antique table, engrossed in playing Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game), the sound of cards clattering against the table echoing throughout.

Yachirobe was flushed red, large beads of sweat rolling down his forehead. He was stripped down to his underwear, clearly having lost everything. Frustrated, he slammed his fist on the table, muttering, "What a mess! My luck today is just unbelievable!"

Kalin the Immortal looked cautious and carefully played a small joker. He narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze fixed on the board, his mind racing as he calculated his next strategy.

Ma Rong's lips curled up slightly, revealing a confident smile. She calmly played out the last King card, her face beaming with pride, and said with a grin, "If I win this round, I'll have a 22-game winning streak!"

Yajirobe's eyes widened, his face full of doubt, and he couldn't help but say, "That's strange, little girl, do you have telepathy? How come you win every single time?"

Yachirobe couldn't understand why this seemingly ordinary girl could always win so many games of cards.

Kalin the Immortal shook his head and said, "She doesn't know how to read minds, so I can never read any of her thoughts."

Kalin the Immortal has cultivated for many years and possesses unique sensory abilities, but when facing Ma Rong, it was as if he had bumped into an invisible wall.

Yajirobe became even more curious and pressed for an answer: "Why?"

Kalin pondered for a moment, then answered seriously, "Because her mind is blank; she has no thoughts at all."

This answer sounds unbelievable, but it is true. Ma Rong's performance at the card game was like that of a machine without emotions or thoughts, making her unpredictable.

Ma Rong listened to their conversation, but only smiled and remained silent. She reached out and picked up the bell that the fairy Kalin had given her, examining it carefully.

Ma Rong's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly, "This must be the bell that leads to the Temple of Heaven! So what should we bet on next?"

Ma Rong was filled with curiosity about the Temple of Heaven and couldn't wait to continue this special "adventure".

Kalin the Immortal smiled mysteriously, took out his Ruyi Jingu Bang from behind him, and said, "Let's bet on this Ruyi Jingu Bang. It's an essential item for getting to the Heavenly Palace in the Heavenly Realm."

The magic staff trembled slightly in his hand, as if it too was anticipating this new contest.

Upon hearing this, Yajirobe immediately became anxious, stood up, and waved his hands, saying, "Kirin, isn't this going a bit too far!"

The magic wand was too precious, and Yajirobe felt it was inappropriate to use it as a wager.

Kalin the Immortal, however, dismissed the suggestion, waving his hand and saying, "How could it be excessive? Do you think I'll keep losing forever?"

Ma Rong watched all this, her eyes narrowing into slits with laughter, and said, "Hahaha, Klin's friends are really interesting! Let's go then."

Kalin the Immortal also became interested and said loudly, "Come on, let's have a showdown. I won't lose. Bring it on!"

As Kalin spoke, a new round of card games was about to begin, and the tense atmosphere grew even stronger.

Meanwhile, a different, tense and intense scene was unfolding atop the Temple of the Gods above Kalin Tower.

Gohan, his face filled with anxiety, knelt tightly beside Krillin, shaking Krillin's body frantically with both hands, his voice trembling with tears as he cried out, "Uncle Krillin, wake up! What's wrong with you?"

King Carrick II and Bick, standing to the side, watched this scene with sinister smiles on their faces.

Suddenly, Piccolo's eyes hardened, and he quickly gathered energy in his hands, unleashing a powerful energy ball at Gohan.

The energy ball shot towards Son Gohan like a meteor, accompanied by a piercing whistle.

Gohan was looking at Krillin with great concern when he noticed the energy ball coming from behind him. His expression changed drastically, and he quickly turned around, crossing his arms to block it.

With a loud "boom," the energy ball collided with his hands, bursting forth with intense light. The enormous impact caused Gohan's arms to tremble slightly.

Son Gohan gritted his teeth and desperately resisted this powerful force.

Seeing this, Piccolo's face contorted with even more savagery, and he grinned as he unleashed his power once more.

The power of the energy ball increased instantly, and Gohan couldn't withstand it. He was sent flying and crashed heavily into the palace of Kami's Lookout, then slammed into the wall, leaving a large, human-shaped crater.

The rising dust filled the air, blurring everyone's vision.

Son Gohan used all his strength to adjust his body direction. He shouted and punched the energy ball hard with both fists, sending it flying upwards.

The energy ball struck the roof with a deafening roar, creating a huge hole before exploding and sending debris flying.

Sunlight streamed through the holes in the roof, illuminating the chaotic battlefield.

With a strange smile on his lips, King Carrick II slowly walked toward the Temple of the Gods palace.

He glanced back at Klin on the ground and chuckled, "In that case, let's make you our new companion too."

After saying this, Carrick II strode toward the palace, his laughter echoing through the empty halls, sending chills down everyone's spines.

Just then, Klin's fingers suddenly trembled as he lay on the ground.

This subtle movement went almost unnoticed in the chaos of the battlefield.

Inside Kami's inner sanctum, Son Gohan hid behind a stone pillar, panting heavily, his eyes blurred with exhaustion.

He stared intently at the blurry figure running towards him, about to react, when suddenly, the figure vanished.

The next second, Piccolo appeared to Gohan's right, his eyes cold, and he threw a punch without hesitation.

With a "bang," Gohan was sent flying by the punch, crashing heavily into the wall once again.

Stones fell from the wall, creating small craters in the ground.

Piccolo didn't pause at all, following closely behind like a ghost, his fists swung incessantly, punching Gohan one after another.

Each punch was accompanied by a whooshing sound, and Gohan could only desperately defend himself while shouting, "Uncle Piccolo!"

But Bick ignored him and continued his relentless attack.

Soon, Gohan was knocked away again.

Son Gohan flew through the air in an arc before crashing heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

Piccolo stood still, crossed his arms in front of his chest, and suddenly burst out with intense light.

The light rapidly split, and in the blink of an eye, two Piccolos appeared.

The three Piccolos simultaneously flashed forward and attacked Gohan like hungry wolves pouncing on their prey.

Son Gohan was suddenly in a desperate situation. He could block one person, but not two; he could block two, but not three.

For a time, Son Gohan was struggling to stay afloat, but his injuries were getting worse and worse.
