Volume 1: Dream and Reality Chapter 173 Gods and Demons Masquerade
When the Black Dragon King finally woke up from his trance, Shen Yuan and Cheng Ruan had already been wrapped in the rich astral energy, and they flew away.
The Black Dragon King didn't chase after the two people who fled through the space, he just stood in place, his face full of surprise, and only after a while whispering something turned his head and walked back to his lair.
The white light flickered, the space flowed like water waves, and when everything was calm, Shen Yuan and Cheng Ruan found themselves in a barren desert.
Cheng Ruan's small face was as pale as paper at this time, with mottled blood stains on the corners of his mouth and chest, he was paralyzed in Shen Yuan's arms, his hands tightly grasped Shen Yuan's collar, and said in a trembling voice: "Shen Yuan, hurry, run!"
"Let's take a break, we're both too badly injured. ”
Cheng Ruan shook his head, a pair of big eyes looked straight into the sky, his face was full of fear, "No, run, I can't walk, you carry me." ”
Shen Yuan followed Cheng Ruan's eyes and looked at the sky, and he was instantly stunned......
In the sky, there are seven purple suns!
"This ......"
Shen Yuan's heart was furious, and he didn't know why the consequences of detonating the astral totem turned out to be like this.
The strong astral energy fluctuations caused by the explosion of the astral totem exceeded the range that Shen Yuan could control at this time to some extent, overwhelming Shen Yuan's spiritual power, and it was not easy to barely condense the sacrificial technique that could make the two escape, and it was purely difficult for a strong man to accurately control the distance and direction.
But what Shen Yuan didn't expect was that the two of them were directly teleported by the astral totem to such a long distance!
At the depth of the five suns, Shen Yuan and Cheng Ruan are already struggling, and there are dangers everywhere, the depth of these seven suns is ......
For Shen Yuan and Cheng Ruan, it was simply the end of the world.
"Good ......"
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, carried the weak and weak Cheng Ruan on his back, and tied the two together with a belt to prevent Cheng Ruan from falling halfway.
Then Shen Yuan divined the location of the Jade Long Academy, and staggered in the direction of the totem.
Just a few minutes after the two of them started to run, Cheng Ruan, who was lying on Shen Yuan's back, suddenly leaned into Shen Yuan's ear and whispered, "Shen Yuan, do you feel it?"
Shen Yuan let out a soft "um" and responded, "I feel it, since just now, there has been a spiritual power watching us." ”
"What should I do?"
Cheng Ruan asked softly.
"No way. ”
Shen Yuan shook his head lightly and said with a wry smile: "In the place of the five suns, we can all encounter the powerful existence of the Extreme Artistic Conception and the Holy Realm, the depth of these seven suns, whatever jumps out, we are all dead......"
"Can we just wait to die?"
Cheng Ruan closed his eyes in despair and muttered.
"Don't be so pessimistic, creatures of this level may not be of much interest to us, as long as you don't offend them......"
"Let's hope so......"
After running for another distance, Shen Yuan's face suddenly moved, he thought of something, and the hand that could still move was raised, and the sharp wind element condensed into a blade, and the knife fell in his hand, cutting off his other stump arm shoulder to shoulder.
Blood was splattering, and white bone stubble emerged from Shen Yuan's shoulder, looking extremely terrifying in the blazing sun.
"What are you doing!?"
Cheng Ruan exclaimed. A few bits of warm blood splashed on her face, and Cheng Ruan felt that her shoulders were also twitching with pain, as if half of Shen Yuan's knife just now had also fallen on her body.
Shen Yuan bit the severed arm in his mouth, and the fire of his other hand flickered, burning and closing the neat wound on his shoulder, and the bones became charred and dry, and no more blood was sprayed outward.
It wasn't until he closed the wound on his shoulder that Shen Yuan had time to let out a low cry of pain, trembling all over, and even stumbling for a few points.
The pain of cutting off one's arm and burning one's body with fire is unbearable for ordinary people!
"What are you doing?"
Cheng Ruan asked again, tears welling up from the corners of her eyes, and she didn't know why Shen Yuan would hurt his own body like this.
Shen Yuan removed the broken arm from his mouth and said bitterly: "Anyway, it's useless, and then we will find a way to continue it." We need this thing now. ”
As he spoke, Shen Yuan pulled something out of the arm bone of the broken arm.
It was the last thing in the Black Dragon King's treasury, the treasure that was recognized as the "most powerful" by the Great Soul Divination, and what the Black Dragon King called the fragment of the "God and Demon Mask".
This fragment is as black as ink on one side, and white as snow on the other, and it is impossible to see what material it is made of, and there is no trace of splicing between black and white.
Cheng Ruan frowned, looked at the blackened wound on Shen Yuan's shoulder with palpitations, and muttered, "This is so difficult to treat...... By the time we're out, your severed arm will already rot. ”
"yes. ”
Shen Yuan said, throwing his broken arm on the yellow sand burned by the sun without hesitation, without looking back, as if the thing that was dropped was not his arm, but a piece of wood.
Cheng Ruan exclaimed in surprise, but he couldn't speak for a long time.
"This thing...... Even the Black Dragon King was jealous, and it was a miracle that he was able to block the angry blow of the powerhouse of the Holy Realm...... What exactly?"
Shen Yuan muttered to himself as he poured the energy in his body into the fragment in his hand.
Hearing Shen Yuan's self-talk, Cheng Ruan's attention was also drawn to this fragment, and he whispered, "This should be one of the many fragments left behind after the mask was shattered. The body of this mask is probably an artifact......"
"Only the fragments of the artifact can have such power. ”
Shen Yuan nodded lightly.
Suddenly, Shen Yuan's face was overjoyed. He felt that the fragment in his hand was absorbing his energy, like a child lying in his mother's arms sucking milk.
An artifact that is willing to absorb a person's energy means that it can be used for this person!
Shen Yuan was very excited, he didn't know if it was because he had a relationship with this fragment, or because this fragment had completed the process of recognizing the master when it was deeply embedded in his bones just now, but since this fragment was willing to interact with him, he and Cheng Ruan had a little more life in a desperate situation!
The fragment hummed at this time, and a pale cyan energy spread from the edge of the fragment, and in Shen Yuan's astonished gaze, a complete mask was gradually formed!
The surface of this mask is smooth, the lines are soft, and the eyebrows and eyes are full of compassion and kindness.
This fragment, located roughly on the left cheek of the mask, occupies one-fifth of the entire mask.
It was only at this time that Shen Yuan could clearly distinguish that the white side of this fragment was the outside, while the black side was the inside.
"Shen Yuan, our aura seems to have become a lot lighter, put it on!"
Cheng Ruan's voice was still weak, but it was full of joy.
Of course, Shen Yuan had no objection, and raised his hand to cover his face with a mask that was one-fifth white and four-fifths cyan.
Putting on the mask, Shen Yuan instantly felt an inexplicable aura enveloping him and Cheng Ruan, and the breath and traces left by the two were disturbed and dissolved. Soon, Shen Yuan felt that the spiritual power that had been watching the two seemed to have lost its purpose, and after wandering around for a while, he left in a huff.
At the same time, Shen Yuan felt a cool breath connected with his own sea of knowledge.
His mind was clear, and Hayden, who had been confused by the effects of pain and exhaustion, became calm and distant, and everything before him became clear and bright, and both his thinking and insight improved significantly.
Under the influence of the fragments of the gods and demons masquerade, Shen Yuan's footsteps were light, and he carried Cheng Ruan on his back and fled in the direction of Yulong Academy at a faster speed.
At this time, there were less than two days left before Yulong Academy ended this God and Demon Secret Realm trial.
It was impossible for Shen Yuan and Cheng Ruan to return to the area where the Jade Long Academy was stationed on the edge of the Gods and Demons Secret Realm on time.
Shen Yuan had no other extravagant hopes at this time, he just wanted to be able to take Cheng Ruan on his back and return to the earth alive, as for the exchange competition of the five academies......
If you really can't catch up, there's no way to do it......
"Cheng Ruan, you see, even the heavens are blessing us, we will definitely be able to turn evil into good fortune and go back safely. ”
Shen Yuan didn't hear Cheng Ruan behind him speak for a long time, he was worried in his heart, and he was relieved.
However, the beautiful man behind him seemed to be asleep, and the weight of his entire body was all on Shen Yuan's back, and his soft chest fit Shen Yuan's shoulders on both sides, gently rubbing it as he ran.
If it was placed in normal times, the fit with Cheng Ruan at such a distance would have already made Shen Yuan's heart run wild, but at this time, Shen Yuan did not have half a charming thought in his heart.
"Cheng Ruan!Cheng Ruan?!"
Shen Yuan hurriedly stopped, put Cheng Ruan on his back on the hot yellow sand, and called eagerly.
Cheng Ruan's injuries were very serious, and Shen Yuan didn't know if she would be able to wake up if she fainted.
Shen Yuan carried the soft water element in both hands and covered Cheng Ruan's body, replenishing the water she had just lost due to the scorching sun, and repairing the injuries in her body.
This spell, Shen Yuan found that Cheng Ruan was under the palm of the Black Dragon King, in order to protect Shen Yuan from being harmed, he had suffered a great impact, his internal organs were cracked inch by inch, and the internal injuries were extremely serious.
After about three minutes, when the healing spell cast by Shen Yuan on Cheng Ruan reached its most critical moment, a huge spiritual power suddenly fell from the sky, greedily and cautiously enveloping Shen Yuan and Cheng Ruan.
Shen Yuan's face changed, this spiritual power was the spiritual power that had been secretly spying on the two of them just now, due to the cover of the fragments of the gods and demons' masks, this spiritual power had lost its target just now, and after wandering for a while, it disappeared, at this time, as soon as Shen Yuan stopped, this spiritual power actually came again, firmly locking Shen Yuan and Cheng Ruan in it.
Cheng Ruan didn't know if his injuries had improved, or if he was stimulated by the sudden spiritual power, his eyes opened suddenly, and a faint voice sounded in Shen Yuan's ears, which was not without reproach.
"Tell you not to stop, run! I won't die so easily, don't care about my injuries! Run, now!"
