Chapter Ninety-One: Double Demon Power
Looking at the man in front of him who had a strong demonic aura and a great change in temperament, Lu Xingyue was stunned, but the man in front of him seemed to be deaf to Lu Xingyue's questions, but he still lowered his head, step by step, and staggered towards Lu Xingyue.
"It's ...... you"
A hoarse voice came from Jiang Yao's throat chaotically, sad, resentful, without any warmth.
"It's you...... Kill him......"
"Huh, what are you talking about?" Lu Xingyue looked inexplicable, but at this time, the dangerous aura emanating from Jiang Yao's body made him have to retreat.
"Give it back to me...... Take him ...... Give me back ......."
"Hey, big brother, are you sleepwalking, are you sober, okay?" Lu Xingyue couldn't cry or laugh, he vigilantly distanced himself from Jiang Yao, and glanced upward, only to see that the zenith of the cave had been artificially broken out of a big hole, obviously this was the "masterpiece" of the man in front of him.
"Good boy, I didn't expect the demonic power in your body to be so powerful...... No wonder 'that guy' wants you so much. Lu Xingyue muttered, as if she had recovered her composure from the initial surprise. "But, if you don't control it well and let the power run wild, it's also a double-edged sword. ”
"Whoa——!
As he spoke, another piercing roar sounded from behind Jiang Yao, and he saw a ghostly black shadow break through the buried stone pile again, and instantly pounced on Jiang Yao's back! However, Jiang Yao didn't even look back, just raised his hand slightly, and with a wave of his hand, the giant claw phantom made of demonic qi covering his right hand instantly lengthened, and caught the puppet undead who rushed to his side in the air.
"It's you...... It's all because you ......."
Jiang Yao's eyes were half-open, repeating the unconscious words. As the giant claw phantom dragged tighter and tighter, the struggle of the puppet undead became more and more intense, and the extremely corrosive black mist also burst out from the puppet undead's body, but the black mist emitted by it not only failed to affect Jiang Yao at all, but was gradually eaten away by the demonic energy on Jiang Yao's body, and quickly dissolved. In the blink of an eye, the puppet undead turned to dust in the scream, completely wiped out.
"Pop ......"
The pale skull mask fell from mid-air to the ground, dissipating in the demonic wind. Lu Xingyue looked at the remains left by the puppet undead on the ground in a daze, and then looked up at Jiang Yao, who was shaking and approaching him again, and the originally relaxed expression on his face gradually disappeared, revealing a cold and sharp look.
"Do you know why among the human supernatural beings, there are not many people who choose the form of 'infusion'? Because although 'infusion' can make people powerful, once the demonic power of the infusion person is out of control, the muscles and veins will be broken at least, and at the worst they will degenerate into demons and go berserk to death. Lu Xingyue looked at Jiang Yao, who had lost his mind in front of him, and the emotions revealed in his gold and silver eyes didn't know whether to sigh or regret. "I wanted to find time for you to popularize science, but it seems that ...... It's too late. ”
“…… Why...... Why ......" Jiang Yao lowered his head and muttered, staggering forward, but then, his body suddenly stagnated. I saw that his body was suddenly bound with a circle of pale yellow light, and not only that, but a heavy shackle appeared on Jiang Yao's wrist at the same time, and this thing was the 'Soul Ring Lock' that he had snatched from Frog Frog before.
"Originally, it was just in case, but I didn't expect it to be used. Lu Xingyue sighed, inserted the shrunken spirit banner in his hand back into his waist, and at the same time pulled out a thin cord with cold murderous intent from his palm again. "You and I have no grievances, and I don't want to do this if I can, but ......"
“…… Why...... Why did you leave me...... Daddy......"
Lu Xingyue's movements suddenly stopped, he raised his head, and looked at the lost man in front of him in surprise.
Jiang Yao in front of him was still half-open, repeating the chaotic words, but under the violent anger, Lu Xingyue saw a certain kind of déjà vu sadness, sadness and loneliness in Jiang Yao's blood-red eyes, and all of this was like a dagger, piercing deeply into a place in his heart that he didn't want to be touched.
"Your father...... ...... too?"
Lu Xingyue didn't say any more, he lowered his eyes, his gaze swept over the 'Star Swirl Disk' in his arms, and there was a faint hint of entanglement between his eyebrows. After a long silence, he finally raised his head again, but his eyebrows and eyes were already firm, as if he had made some kind of choice.
"Since you have known each other, then I will help you, as for whether you can 'change back', it depends on your own creation. ”
As soon as the words fell, Lu Xingyue's hand suddenly fluoresced, and with the glimmer of light flashing in the pair of beautiful gold and silver eyes, a pale yellow air flow filled with a strong demonic aura burst out from Lu Xingyue's body in an instant, and swept towards Jiang Yao.
"Boom ——!"
The pale yellow airflow instantly enveloped Jiang Yao's body, and began to suppress the dark purple demonic qi on his body. And as the two demonic qi collided with each other, Lu Xingyue's face gradually began to lose its blood, and drops of cold sweat dripped down his pale cheeks and fell under his feet, but even so, he didn't flinch at all.
“…… What a domineering demon! and...... It seems that there is more than one?" Lu Xingyue narrowed his eyes, and in the dark purple demonic aura on Jiang Yao's body, he seemed to vaguely see a trace of strange red light mixed in it.
"This, this is!?" Lu Xingyue's heart moved, and the pale yellow air flow that was fighting against the dark purple demonic qi also fluctuated a little at that moment, and the huge anti-devouring force instantly bounced Lu Xingyue away, this time not only the entangled light rope, but even the 'Soul Ring Lock' on Jiang Yao's wrist was also destroyed in the explosion of demonic power.
"Ahem, ahem, there are two demonic powers...... How can this ......" Lu Xingyue coughed, reached out to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth, and looked up at the man in front of her. At this moment, the monster-like giant claw phantom on Jiang Yao's right hand had taken the opportunity to spread upward, gradually covering half of Jiang Yao's body, and now with Lu Xingyue's means, it was obviously impossible to stop him.
"Already...... Can't help it......"
Lu Xingyue gritted his teeth and looked at Jiang Yao, but to his surprise, he found that the man in front of him who had broken free from the restraints actually stopped his tracks, and with the flickering of the black mark on his collarbone, a trace of pain and confusion appeared on Jiang Yao's originally empty face.
“…… No...... Stop, stop......" Jiang Yao grabbed his head and half-knelt on the ground, as if he was desperately fighting against something. I saw that in that thick dark purple demonic aura, a touch of aqua blue light quickly circulated in his arms.
Puff ...... Puff ......
The violent heartbeat was intertwined with the shattered sound of memory, which surged into Jiang Yao's ears. The bleak sound of the sycamore leaves, the call of the father, the piercing gunshots...... The "Pandora's Box" hidden in the depths of memory slightly opened a gap in the boiling ocean of energy, and also brought a certain dangerous signal into Jiang Yao's mind.
[Do you remember? What did you wish at that time......]
A familiar voice came from the depths of the soul.
It's mine...... Aspiration?
[Are you...... Don't you want to know the "truth" of the past?]
True...... The truth......!?
[Hehehe...... When you get 'them' back, you'll remember, your wishes, and your ......]
"Hmm...... Head...... My head hurts...... Uh-huh!!"
A heart-rending roar erupted in the empty cave, and at that moment, the dark purple demonic qi mixed with a faint red light on Jiang Yao's body exploded in the entire space like a hurricane.
"Bang!!"
The collapsed rubble was blown up with the hurricane, and the black stone tablet engraved with "Nine Springs" also broke in an instant in the eruption of demonic energy, and smashed straight towards Lu Xingyue not far away.
Lu Xingyue was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't quite understand what had just happened, but at this time, she saw that the dark purple demon wind was slowly weakening, and after a short while, it all dissipated into the diffuse dust.
“…… Road...... Xingyue?"
The tired voice sounded softly from the front, Lu Xingyue came back to his senses, and quickly turned his head to look at the man who was kneeling on the ruins, but saw that the blood in the other party's pupils had subsided, and the thick demonic aura around him and the phantom on his right hand also disappeared without a trace.
"Jiang Yao...... You kid has finally recovered......" Seeing Jiang Yao regain his senses, Lu Xingyue was suddenly relieved and sat down on the ground. "Really, I almost killed you!"
"......" Jiang Yao gasped, glanced at the messy surroundings, and immediately understood that it was the consequence of his power out of control, but this time the loss of control seemed to be a little different from the past, at least there were still fragmentary memories of what he experienced when he was out of control.
"This time...... Thanks to you, I was able to come to my senses. Jiang Yao looked at Lu Xingyue gratefully, and reached out to take out a water-blue bead shrouded in a pale yellow halo from his arms. "If it weren't for the stimulation of your mana just now, this 'Xuanwu Pearl' probably wouldn't be enough to restrain my rampage. Thank you, Lu Xingyue......"
"'Xuanwu Pearl'? I see...... On the contrary, it's good that you're recovering, and you owe me a personal favor this time. Facing Jiang Yao's sincere eyes, Lu Xingyue seemed a little uncomfortable, and gently looked away. "Then again, you're in the ...... What's the matter with the 'two demonic powers'?"
"Two demonic powers?"
Jiang Yao was slightly stunned, in his cognition, his body should only have the 'power of the fierce beast' infused by gluttony, but somehow, he couldn't help but think of the mysterious voice that appeared in his mind several times.
Don't...... What does it have to do with that voice?
Jiang Yao was silent, and his face became cloudy. That voice rolled in his mind with the fragments of memories from ten years ago, Jiang Yao always felt that his loss of control this time seemed to be no accident, and there seemed to be something in this 'Nine Springs Walled City' that was constantly pulling him and prying a long-sealed secret in his heart.
"Hey, forget it, now is not the time to chat. Looking at Jiang Yao's confused face, Lu Xingyue knew that he couldn't ask anything, he got up, picked up the fading fireworks beads, and turned his head to look around.
"'Nine Springs Spring'...... It seems that we have really entered the most undesirable place, the hallucinations I had when I was in the corridor and your rampage must have been influenced by this place, I am afraid that the rock composition here has a hallucinogenic effect, no wonder it is rumored that there is no going back here......"
"That'...... We've got to get out of here, but ...... to get out."
[Hehe...... Hehehe......]
Before Jiang Yao finished speaking, a strange rustling sound accompanied by an eerie chuckle echoed in the huge cave space again, but this time the laughter did not come from the periphery, but from the only "exit" of the current space-the strange cave with human figures suspended.
"What's going on?!"
The two of them were startled, and they both turned their heads to look at the cave behind them that shone with green phosphorescence.
I saw that in the black pool water at the bottom of the cave, more than a dozen staggering figures crawled up, and the skull-white masks reflected a strange light in the phosphorescence, just raising their heads and staring at them deadly.
