Chapter 271: The Altar
Looking at Augustus's silent shortness of breath, Bi Lingxiao laughed unceremoniously at the same time, he also had a plan in his heart. Since the sacrificial array was completed due to the integration of Augustus, and it was trapped here by chance due to the birth of the soul beast, then this sacrificial array, that is, the core of the soul beast, is very likely to be here in Augustus.
"That's it, let's kill the gods, how about we make a deal?"
"I'm the way I am, how can I have any room to make a deal with you?" Augustus said in a muffled voice, and after a while, he suddenly raised his eyes as if he had thought of something. "Are you trying to ......?"
"Let's find a way to dig you out of this place, and in exchange, you will help us solve the core of this soul beast, what do you think!" Bi Lingxiao smiled as he tapped his fingers on the veins on Augustus' chest.
"Do you have a way?"
Augustus looked suspiciously at the puppet face in front of him. Even his own current cultivation couldn't break free from the confinement, what could this demon, who was much smaller than him, do?
His eyes were drawn to the purple pine forest standing at the base of the tree, doing nothing. "Could it be that that person is your teacher?"
Just a puppet facing mental manipulation naturally can't judge the level of the controller. It's no wonder that Augustus misunderstood, after all, even he himself can't break the confinement, and if he wants to be lifted, the idea of ordinary people is naturally to wait for someone higher than him to do it. As far as Augustus knew, only Bi Lingxiao's unfathomable teacher might have this ability.
"Teacher, he doesn't want to participate in the small fights in the nether world, that is my friend!"
"The one with the 1st grade 3rd?" Augustus withdrew his eyes. "Not enough, right?"
"There must be a gap compared to you!" Bi Lingxiao waved his hand. "To be honest, I'm not sure if we can solve this thing, but this deal won't hurt you. If you succeed, it's good, and if you fail, it won't be worse than now, right?"
What the other party said also makes some sense, even if it fails, it will only maintain the status quo and will not cause any damage to itself. I'm afraid that if I want to meet someone else here, the possibility is really slim, let alone being above Guiyuan. The entire Nether Realm has reached this level, and it is estimated that only the teacher and friend of the other party, as well as himself. Anyway, if you try it, you won't be short of a piece of meat, Augustus thought about it and nodded in agreement.
"You get me out, I'll help you destroy the core, that's it. ”
"Well, that's it, but there's something I want to say first. ”
"What?"
Bi Lingxiao looked at the other party, and his expression was much more correct. "Another possibility is that you are the core of this soul beast. ”
It was precisely because of the integration of Augustus that the sacrificial array was completed rapidly, and the soul beast was also conceived. At this point, the two become one, and it is not surprising that the core of this is Augustus himself. They came here to destroy the core of the soul beast, and of course they didn't expect that this core would be the possibility of a living person. At the level of Augustus at this time, with the strength of the two of them, it was impossible to kill him. If you want to destroy the kernel, there is only one way.
"You want me to kill myself?" Augustus raised his eyes, and the air instantly froze.
"Don't get excited, it's just a possibility. Feeling the other party's nervousness, Bi Lingxiao raised his hand and pressed it weakly. "I don't want to get such a result in the end, don't you! Don't forget that I made this shell of yours, and I feel sorry to see you destroy it! It's a big deal that I'll give you one of these two to make a new body, if you're not satisfied, I'll catch you again, and it's not impossible to refine it again." ”
Augustus's face changed for a moment. If he himself is the core of this soul beast, not only does the other party want to destroy, but he himself wants to get rid of it, and there is indeed only one way. It's his newfound body, so perfect, that he has to destroy it with his own hands before it gets hot, and it feels like a fire when he thinks about it.
"Well, the initiative is yours, you decide. I can only hope that the core is somewhere else!"
"Don't be so pessimistic, this is only the worst case!" got the promise, Bi Lingxiao clapped his hands and stood up. "I'll go and discuss countermeasures with my brother, you old man wait up there first, don't worry!" he jumped off his palm.
The purple pine forest listened to their conversation clearly, and he didn't straighten up leaning on the branch when he saw the people coming down. "Our eldest young master really has acquaintances wherever he goes!"
"Save it, let's see what it is. Bi Lingxiao was already lying on the trunk of the tree, probing inward through the cracks in the knotted veins.
The knotted veins are very tight, and the light is not good, so you can't see what's inside. It's just that this tree trunk-like thing, Bi Lingxiao has actually seen something similar. This arm, which is like a craggy pattern, is exactly like the altar of the soul sacrifice!
"You come and attack here. ”
"Me?" Purple Pine Forest crossed his arms. "That guy up there can't break free, are you sure my attack will work?"
"It's because I'm not sure I want to try!" Bi Lingxiao wanted to make an innocent expression, but this was not obvious on the puppet's face.
Purple Pine shrugged, turned slowly, raised his right hand, and slammed his fist into the trunk. Nothing happened.
Bi Lingxiao looked at him expressionlessly. "With demonic power. ”
Bang. The dazzling demonic aura of the phantom demon bloomed in the knotted vein, and a large hole was suddenly blasted open in that place. However, before they could be surprised that the attack actually worked, the wound healed with lightning speed.
"And the ability to heal itself, this thing is also alive?" Purple Pine Lin looked at the intact epidermis of the trunk, a little surprised.
Bi Lingxiao looked at the place that had just been destroyed. It had been repaired at this point, leaving no traces, and there was no indication that a fist-sized wound had ever exploded. He looked up.
"Killing God, do you feel anything?"
"What do you mean?"
"Is there any pain in your body, or do you feel a loss of internal energy? ”
"Nope. ”
"Did you feel these things before we came?"
"No, there isn't. ”
"Okay, I see. ”
"What's the matter?"
"It's nothing, I'll tell you the good news, you shouldn't be the core of this soul beast, at least the soul beast won't draw energy from you. ”
"Oh?" this conclusion surprised Augustus. "How do you know?"
"Before we entered, the soul beast suffered a lot of trauma under the attack of the coalition forces, but you didn't feel it. And just now we attacked the altar, and the altar was wounded, and although it was completely repaired later, it was also injured in the past, but it didn't affect you personally. In this way, although the altar is closely connected to you, the problems that occur on it do not arise in you, nor do they absorb the energy in you. I originally thought that your fusion with the altar had probably become the core of the soul beast, but now it seems that this possibility has been greatly reduced. By the way, the killing god is great, do you have any consciousness in the lower half of your body that is bound by those veins?"
"Nope. ”
...... It seems that this possibility cannot be completely overturned.
"A few more attacks, this time with a bit more intensity. ”
Three consecutive attacks hit the surface of the altar, and a huge wound appeared on it, and it healed quickly.
"With only one Yuan Soul, this is already the highest intensity attack I can unleash. "Purple pine forest road.
"This way, you only attack one area, half a second apart, five times in a row. ”
Five rays of light flashed, and due to the continuous attack, the wound did not heal immediately this time, and Bi Lingxiao finally got a gap of two and a half seconds and saw it clearly. There seemed to be something wrapped in the veins of the altar branches, and it was black, and I couldn't see what it was. He tried to feel what it was before the wound healed, but as soon as he came into contact with it, the healed epidermis wrapped his fingers in place, unable to move, and it took a lot of effort to finally pull them out.
"What is it?"
"It's hard, it seems to be a shell. ”
The golem is of course non-tactile, but the fingers are hindered from touching the black object, which is obviously a very hard thing. It seemed to be unbreakable with demonic power, just as the surface of the altar couldn't be broken with normal physical attacks.
"One more time. ”
Five more attacks in a row, this time before the wound could heal, Purple Pine Lin struck a fist at the black object beneath the veins of the branches. Click. With a crisp sound, a mesh pattern appeared on the surface of the object, but before the second punch could be reached, the epidermis of the altar healed again, and the fist pounded on the veins without causing any damage.
"Come again!"
The sound of demonic energy exploding and the crisp sound of fists pounding on hard objects sounded one after another. After working for an unknown amount of time, the purple pine forest finally smashed the black object inside before the epidermis healed for the last time. Bi Lingxiao, who had been waiting intently for a long time, immediately looked inside, but he didn't see anything except the black mass.
Is there nothing in this altar?
"Did you just feel any obstacles inside?"
"Like you said, the black is a shell, and when you break it, it's empty inside, and you don't feel anything. Purple Pine Lin shook his head.
If it was hollow, there could not be nothing in it, but he really didn't see anything just now.
Since the altar is hollow, and the idea that Augustus may be the core is ruled out, then it is very likely that the core of the soul beast is hidden in this altar. But there's no rush to look for it yet.
"Let's go up!"
The two jumped to the top of their palms.
"Attack here. ”
Bi Lingxiao pointed to the veins on Augustus' chest, and the purple pine forest was unambiguous, and immediately slashed up with a series of attacks. The veins in the palm of the palm were not much harder than the trunk below, and the attack of the purple pine forest suddenly opened a hole above, but the size of the hole was not enough for Augustus to get out and heal in the same instant.
"With this efficiency, I can't even drag him out if I'm tired!" Zi Songlin sighed very exaggeratedly, looking like he was overworked and about to die of overwork. Bi Lingxiao ignored him and looked to the side instead.
"Attack his two-handed part. ”
A few rounds of demonic power and a few fists went down, and this time it worked. Taking advantage of the small and small rift created, Augustus finally pulled his right hand out.
"The other side. ”
"My eldest young master, labor is not squandered like this!"
Zi Songlin crossed his waist and shook the hand that had just hammered his fist. Of course, the puppet couldn't feel pain, but with the energy released by his one-cent soul, he had indeed reached his limit at this time.
"How long do you need to rest?"
"One day at least. Don't look at me, this is recovering soul energy, how can it be as fast as recovering demon power!"
As soon as he said this, Bi Lingxiao reacted. Puppets can't use the demonic magic of the body, and the purple pine forest can only perform demonism because it has integrated a primordial soul. But since the consumption of these energies is not their own demonic power, it is the soul energy that is integrated!
